WELLES TI-IE PRINCIPAL Under Dr. Welles' wise leadership we have seen our school advance to the status of a degree granting institution. With the interests of the stu- dents at heart, he has built our school to a height of which we can be justly proud. An elficient executive and a friend to every student, Dr. Welles nspires our respect and confidence. 10 ROYAL F. NETZER DIRECTOR OF TRAINING Dr. Netzer, our geniaI Director of Training, is a IriendIy companion as well as an adviser. Encumbered with the important task of adjusting the curriculum, he seems never too busy for individuaI conferences with faculty and students. if PRINCIPAL- SCHOOL OF PRACTICE With thoroughness and precision, Mr. I-Iolcomb attends to his doubIe tasIc of being I3rincipaI ofthe School ofpractice and head of placement. I-Iis winning confidence and sincere friendliness are warmly appreciated by IacuIty and students aIiIce. FREDERICK B. I-IOLCOMB -i I DEAN OF WOMEN DR. LUCY i-IARMON Enriched by much experience and many contacts with varied per- sonalities, Dr. i-iarmon has brought to Geneseo an understanding of student problems and an interest in student ambitions which have made her otiice a center oi activity. 12 Back Row: Dr, Netzer, Dr. Richardson, Dr. Mau, Miss Rogers, Dr. Behrens, Miss Trumper, Dr. Greene. Front Row: Mr, Parry, Mr. Holcomb, Dr. Seger, Dr. Harmon, Dr. Welles, 'ilt's all in the attitude you talcef' Yes, class attitude weighs heavily in determining your worth as a student. lt is only logical that the student who tal4es a genuine interest in his class worlc and malces that interest evident will earn a more desirable position in the class standing. Then, too, a knowledge olsubject matter always is essential in maintaining that high average. For those untortunates who have found the HC average unattainable there is the Faculty Council, that group oi department heads, who set as their aim the readjustment of such iloundering individuals. The inside story is that the Faculty Council really attempts to help the below-average student analyse the snares which have made his school liie unsuccessful in an academic sense, These snares are many and varied, ranging from an over-laden extra- curricular program to an improper budgeting of worlcing time. Gpening the way to a new start for these students is the Councils chiefaim. The maintenance ol a high scholastic record is not the only raison d'etre ofthe Faculty Council. The members of this organization are constantly striving for the betterment of Geneseo Normal School in many ways, Through their combined etiorts, scholarship and student lite here are being constantly improved to the benelit of all concerned. if ff FACULTY COUNCIL if 13 Rap, rap, rapl The meeting will please come to orderll' With these Familiar words, the presi- dent of Student Co-Qperative Government opens the semi-monthly meetings of the organization. The entire student body participates in these meetings, which are held in the auditorium of Qld Main. Such vital questions as recreations, reverse date vveel4-end, the budget, library seniors holding Student Government ohfices, and other general school problems were discussed and voted upon this year, amid much heated and healthy controversy. By having this form of government, the students receive much that is oi value. Since they are closely concerned with the many problems at hand, they learn to mal4e wise decisions, which will benefit the school as a whole and not just a few individuals. Free expression of opinion is en- couraged, and this leads to a Final vote which reflects the opinion ofthe majority of the student body. Parliamentary procedure is closely observed, and this lcnovvledge of the rules of order proves most valuable to the student body in other situations. Student government is the rule ofthe people, and under the guidance oi capable leaders chosen by the students, the Geneseo Student Co-operative Government moves lorvvard to more outstanding achievements each year.

Tl-IE STUDENT CCUNCIL A'l2epresentative is Geneseo,s Student Council. ln this organization representation really achieves its purpose. Freshmen, Sophomores, Juniors and Seniors-all have important parts to play in this government 'lol the students, by the students and lor the students. Members ol the laculty also lend a helping hand to the Student Council. Student problems and their solutions are what interest the members ol Student Council. Exist- ing rules are pondered upon and sometimes revised that they may worlc more eflectively. New rules that are needed are discussed, drawn up, and put into practice. Social as well as scholastic allairs are discussed in the lively meetings ol the Council. When the question at hand vitally allects all the students ol Geneseo, the Student Cooperative Government is aslced to help with the solution. With the Student Council and the Student Government working hand-in-hand, it is not diflicult to arrive at an answer to even the most involved question. Through our Student Council the members ol Geneseo Normal have attained a leeling ol unity. We hope to achieve the goal which all schools are working lor: the greatest benelits For all students at all times. ak 'I5 MMMW if mf Vyyfnoust mtsinmrs' FEDERATION More than half the Fun of going away to school is the op- portunity to live 'ion campusf' The intimate friendships Formed, the intermingling of varied nationalities and religions leading to greater tolerance, and the independence of being on ones own combine to make student life most worth-while. Naturally this new independent home life has a Few restric- tions, which are made lcnown to all Geneseols newcomers. The black-out of lights at eleven-thirty, the dash to get in on time, the phone silencer after eight, and those special late per- missions-all play their part in maintaining a normal existence for the Geneseoites. Through the l-louse presidents' Federation, the students pro- mote a happy medium of fun and conformance to necessary regulations. Back Row Cunningham, Bowes, Anderson, Gilbert, B.

Yes, the juniors are handicapped by size, but this handicap has not proved overwhelming. Gratelully, the class gives much ol the credit for their success to Mrs. Rider, their adviser. With her aid, they have been able to carry on all the functions of the Junior Class quite admirably. When their right to nominate Student Government olslicers was contested, it was decided that, although the class was small, the president ancl vice-president for the following year should be members ofthe Senior Class, as has been the custom. Junior weelc again proved the juniors to be competent. Color day, the tea for the seniors, their banquet, and lastly, the Prom were all evidences of efficient coopera- tion combined with brilliant imagination. Yes, they have the power, a most successful year is ample proof of that. 'lr Smith, Sunderland, Klein ,i 50 SOP!-ICDMORE CLASS Marilyn Coe Julia Palmer Julie Gorton Harrison Phillips .

Wellsville SOP!-IOMORE HISTORY The First, real big class of good old G.N.S. toolc an important part in Geneseo life this year. lndeed, the present Sophomore Class is the largest that Geneseo has ever claimed, due to the new four-year curriculum for elementary teachers as well as librarians. The class of 1942 entered their sophomore year with a high scholastic as well as social reputation to maintain. Their freshman year, with its out standing color day and Frosh Frolic, had set high standards of originality and quality for them to live up to. ln addition to this, the class of 1942 was the First sophomore class to be composed of students other than the library group. This meant that they had to establish their positicn in Geneseo as a large class on a par with the others. ln September, the sophomores came back to school ready to uphold the standards they had already set for themselves. The Sophomore l'lop, talcing the place of the Student Government Dance, was the First main extra-curricular activity of the class. The lndians roamed wildly that night in October, and once again the class of '49 had accomplished something of which to be proud. The Sophomore Color Day was really quite unique. A round, led from the balcony, added a new note to the program. The theme was a glimpse into the future and showed what the ditierent members of the class would be doing in ten years. The faculty was not spared and were portrayed in their characteristic attitudes. For their second year the class of 1942 entered enthusiastically into life at Geneseo and intend to up- hold its high ideals in the years to come.

Thus, with this vigorous song, the energetic Freshmen opened their color day program, their First social activity ol the season. The theme of the program was a night club- Club 43.'l For entertainment, the gilted members of the class exhibited their various talents: songs, piano solos, and dramatic monologues were the main features ol the program. The next event, and the most prominent, sponsored by the class ol 1943, was the Frosh Frolic, held April 5th. UGone With the Wind was decided upon as the theme, a theme which required much tedious labor. However, through the tireless etlorts of these underclassmen, the dance was a huge success and regarded by all as one ol the best ol the year. So with memories of a pleasant year behind them, the freshmen watched the burning ol their Teddy Bear on moving-up day. Back Row: Gilbert, McClory, Second Row: Lynch, Zorno, Howard.

Each has its own delinite duties as indicated by the titles. Although these statl duties diller one lrom the other, there is an inter-relationship so that the worlc does not become too departmentalized, and the burden ot the worlc does not fall heavily on any one stall.

LAMRON MAY END EXISTENCE EDUCATIONAL LEGISLATIVE ACTION WILL INFLUENCE FATE OF I8 YEAR-OLD NORMAL SCI-IOOL NEWSPAPER Geneseo, May 'I6, 'I94O. It is understood in literary circles that the LAMRON, the oFlicial publication ol the State Normal School at Geneseo, is soon to go out ol existence. The change is thought to be the result of educational legis- lation. Back Row: Flanagan, Damico, Mitchell, Barden, P. Smith, Mr. Parry, Bassett, Gillard, Adonnino. Second Row: Pestel, Martin, Winston, Ireland, Rudolph, Needham, De GraFF, I-ludecelc, Fernan, Klein. Front Row: B. Smith, Woodley. 62 It is supposed that the expected legislation to change the status of state normal schools to teachers colleges is the cause of the rumor. Since the present title, LAMRGN, is an anagram and reversed spells normal, it would not be conveying a true meaning if it were retained when Geneseo Normal becomes a Teachers College. lts history dates baclc to February, 1922. At that time it was a monthly paper, its first editor-in-chiefwas l-lelen McNamara. Then, as now, Mr. Parry was the faculty adviser. Late in 1926, the LAMRON began to be published as a semi-monthly paper. The last issue, in June of 1927, inaugurated a new system of editorial appointment. Besides an editor and assistant editor of each staff, an advisory editorial staff was initiated. This consisted of the editors of the previous year, who acted as advisers to the existing staff. This system was carried on for about two years. During this period, Mr. Parry acted as faculty adviser to the editorial staff, and Mr. Countryman acted as faculty adviser to the business staff. Through the years, the LAMRON has been printed at the office of the Livingston County Republican. It has mirrored the activities of Geneseo Normal School through these eighteen years. As a member of the Columbia Scholastic Press Association, the LAMRON has been known for its efforts to maintain the high standards set by this society of journalists, which for the past few years has bestowed upon the LAMRQN second place rating among the schools affiliated with it. Through the combined efforts of the LAMRON and the NORMALIAN, Alpha Sigma Omicron, the New Yorlc State l-lonorary Journalism Society had its first chapter formed in Geneseo.

SIGMA PISIGMA Stooging is not the only concern ol Sigma Pi Sigma. Their aim is to gain a well-rounded personality as vvell as a high scholastic record. Their members are deeply interested in all phases ol lile at Geneseo, and nearly every organization in school has some Sigma l3i's in its midst. lt goes without saying that member- ship in Sigma Pi Sigma is a coveted goal ol the students in school. The requirement lor admission is a B average lor three terms. Even though the clubls primary purpose is to lurther an interest in high scholastic standing, the club carries on a yearly program that is most enjoyable. The past year has been successful and eventlul. A panel on world atlairs vvas one of the outstanding high-lights ol the year. Then, there vvas a hobby exhibit in which both laculty and students participated, which proved most unusual. What a surprising collection oi hobbies there vvasl Sigma Pi also conducted an alumnae questionnaire, and the results were discussed at their annual alumnae supper. Since the nature ol the club's activities is so varied and stimulating there is something ol interest to all the ditlerent types ol people vvho are members of the club. These activities and the primary purpose of the organization mal4e membership in Sigma Pi Sigma a worth-vvhile achievement. 'A' 65 if LIBRARY CLUB UWait a secondAwhere's the fire'?', lt,s not a fire, l'm rushing to the Library Club meeting to hear Miss Van Norman talk about her trip to California. Why don't you come alongwwe always have fun at the meetings? Besides-you might learn somethlngf' Just a typical comment from a typical Library Club member showing the deep interest and enthusiasm which the club inspires in its members. Probably the fact that this club is composed primarily of library students who are thoroughly absorbed in their professional careers has much to do with this. Then, too, the program ofthe Library Club could arouse interest in the most luke-warm person. A tea for the freshman library students, a talk by Miss Fay on childrens books, a movie on bookbinding, and a few general discussions of books and authors were some of the outstanding events of the year.

LITERARVCLUB Drop in unexpectedly at some Literary Club meeting, you will be sure to Find the group talking eagerly about books and things. Naturally books and literature in general form the basis for most of these discussions, but hobbies, the theatre, and other allied interests, all enter into the conver- sation ol the club. Through the Book Club, which is a vital part oi the Literary Club, the members come in contact with many ditterent types of literature. These books are selected by the club members and are available to all the people in the club. Their range in subject matter reflects the ditlerent interests of the members. Books of all types are represented, including short stories, plays, poetry, and bi- ography. lVlany best sellers are included, and this enables everyone to keep up with What America is Readingf, With so wide a selection, everybody is always able to Find some book to satisly his own individual taste in literature. Book talks by students and faculty usually lay the Foundation For a stimulating discussion atter the talk. Many outside guests come to review books and thus aid them in their book selection. To be admitted to the club, one has to write a book review or give a book talk. This insures the Literary Club that the new members have the same genuine interest in literature as the old ones. 'lr 67 STUDENT FORUM We have as our subject for discussion this afternoon, the menace which propaganda presents to our existing civilization. Cn our panel we have representatives ofthe New York State Speakers Association from Brockport, Oswego, and Chesborough Seminaryfl This is the standard introduction to one ol those informative, yet informal, discussions carried on by the Student Forum. Qther outstandingly popular topics which the group investigated and discussed in public meetings this year were: uNew York State taxation and its relation to Education , 'socialized Medicine , and HGovernment Ownership ol Railroads. The last discussion was probably provoked by the absence of the Erie Rail- road service to Geneseo after January QT, 1940. Not concentrating only on those opportunities lor exchanging views with students from other normal schools, the forum also works in conjunction with local groups such as the high school and other organizations interested in the advancement of intelligent discussion.

Nevertheless, its members have found that through prolonged discussion and oftentimes argument, they have been able to arrive at logical, clear, and coherent thoughts worthy ol the time spent in sifting reliable data out ol a confusion ol material. Unhesitatingly, the club has sought authorities to aid them in their search lor truth. This year the Builalo club visited Geneseo lor an ex- change ol views. The activities of the club have been such that, with the assistance ol laculty, outside authorities, and reference tools, it has gleaned much oi vvorth. Back Pow Corbin Allen, Cunningham.

AGASSIZ ASSGCIATION Back to natureu, the call ol the wild is answered by enthusiastic Agassiz members who turn into ex- perimental scientists on rainy days. Dividing their time between the wonders ol the great outdoors and the mysteries ol the scientific laboratory, these students ol research and practical experimentation devote a large portion ol their leisure time to the promotion of their interests in nature. Testing with precision and slcill their theories upon diversified subjects, and accepting these theories only after they have been suc- cesslully proven, Agassiz enthusiasts apply the knowledge which they have gained through their ex- periences in science. The club has always included in its program a number ol Field trips, which have lead to ever-widening horizons and added to the enjoyment and informative quality ol its activities, Developing a sense ol l4een observation, an asset peculiar to scientists and artists, these aspiring students ol the scientific world derive much value lrom these trips, There are lew organizations ol a practical nature in our school that have more intense interest in their Field ol endeavor than does the progressive Agassiz club. if 71 G if I2 if E Gathered together in informal grouping, the members of G. R. E. discuss the child and his behavior, ever seelcing new aids to improve child care and training. These club members are engrossed in their discussions, which range from the familiar topic of that unusual child in our neighborhood, to a more scientific attitude toward child problems, based upon research in the field of psychology. Considering the problems which confront the rural teacher, the organization has attempted to solve them practically. Rural education is in a state of transition, gradually one and two-room schools are being supplanted by more efficient centralized district schools, offering much that the small school cannot afford. These centralized schools are malcing possible a broader, more profitable, and enjoyable educational experience for the child from a rural home. With the advancement of centralization, the old problems of the little red school house are diminishing, but we find that consolidation malces new demands upon the teaching staff. Club members are learning how to improve old conditions and meet the demands of the new through careful study of methods employed by experienced teachers to counteract these difficulties.

Eew students outside of the special class field recognize the scope of the lnter- national Council for Exceptional Children. Upon examining the Uclournal of Ex- ceptional Children,'l a non-profit educational project published for lnternational, we find existing chapters in over twenty of our states as well as in l'lawaii and a few of the Canadian provinces. A chapter is considered to be a group of ten or more individuals organized and affiliated with International. Each member of the Geneseo Normal Chapter receives, as a part of his membership privileges, a copy of the 'llournall' each month. Qur Geneseo Chapter is under the direction of Dr. Shanahan of Sonyea. Under his capable leadership the organization has spent many profitable evenings pursu- ing the study of all types of exceptional children. Among the prominent spealters who stimulated the group to discussion and questioning were Dr. Robert Nathan, spealcing on the European schools, and Dr. Shanahan who treated the familiar sub- ject, epilepsy. Professionally-minded, the organization has absorbed much from its guest meetings and discussions. I C ff af E C 73 CCDMMUTERS' CLUB The Fall of Forty has much signiticance to the commuters of Geneseo Normal. What a snowstorm there was in the February oi that yearl Many of the drivers plodded through the snow regardless ot the miserable driving conditions. A lew were Forced to stay in town For one night, however. Clfven that hurt their pridelb ln the spring, the Floods from the Genesee River made commuting a dangerous business, but they all carried on. The Commuters' Club was formed For those students who travel baclc and forth from home to school each day. Coziness and the home-lilce atmosphere of their clubroom do much to talce the place of the rooms of those who actually live here in Geneseo, Contrary to some beliefs, the Commuters do belong to other clubs and tal4e part in school activities. They are often more punctual in attendance than those who live in town. Commuting can become tedious and boring, but the members of the club refuse to let it do so. Through their meetings they gain much pleasure, and while in Geneseo they malce the most of every minute. Can the rest of us claim the same? Back Row Wester Donnan, Stewart, A. Hall, N.

This year they studied childrenls radio programs. Through this study, they become better able to cope with situations which might arise when they themselves are teaching. ln the discussions, sometimes held with parents and teachers in order to get their viewpoints, the child is regarded as an individual. Not very olten are definite conclusions reached at these discussions, but many opinions are expressed and exchanged. Qther subjects, such as music, travel, and art are considered. All in all, therefore, the Early Childhood Education Club helps to provide a vvell-rounded baclcground for future teachers olyoung children. Back Row: Sheehan, Strang, Hardy, Wester, V.

Meeting every other Weel4 on Wednesday afternoons, Las Exploras members lose the cares they may have, and gain in return a feeling that Uall's right with the vvorldf' Since the weather cannot be ordered, rain and snovv often accompany the hilcers on their travels. This year the new members of the club, clad in snovv suits, celebrated the vvinterfs worst snovv storm by a hil4e. The annual trelc to Letchworth Park brings with it a perfect vveel4-end for the explorers. Big appetites go hand in hand with the fifteen mile jaunt which brings the club's activities to a close for the year. A club devoted to true sportsmanship, good times, and vvarm comradeship may be summed up as our Las Exploras hiking club. ir 76 at GAMMA ZETA SOCIETY Gamma Zeta is a group ol girls united by common interests. OF great importance among these common interests is the promotion of a more enjoyable social life while at school. However, following closely, is the desire lor an intelligent exchange of ideas on current attairsz religion, politics, and other subjects, which always stimulate group discussion. These two major interests, in such a group, serve to promote many close associations and wholesome Friendships. Membership is restricted to those non-sorority girls who maintain a CQ average and choose to associate themselves with the group.

Plenty ol drama and excitement accompanied these hard-fought games, and the spectators olten Found it dillicult to lollow all the thrill-packed experiences happening on the Floor. lhen there were those times when things did not look too bright! When spirits sagged, cheer- leaders jumped up to rouse sport fans lrom their lethargy and stimulate the men to basket-making. Winning or losing, the men showed an enthusiasm lor the game and the kind ol sportsmanship we can easily admire. The Final whistle blew all too soon, the season was over lor another year. 'Ir 88 lviEN'S BASEBALL 'Take me out to the ball game became the theme with the First sign of spring. Cn warm after- noons, atter scholastic ehforts had become just too tiresome, Geneseo's student body drifted down to the ball Field to watch itsstars wind-up at bat. Gut on bleechers, perched on car-tops, or sprawled lazily on the grass, the spectators chewed gum to the tune of two-baggers and even home-runs, as the teamsters gave their all for Geneseols glory. Between innings Geneseo's co-eds chatted with spectators from the visiting school. Cheers and groans accompanied the changing luclt of the team as homers turned Foul or the Fielder mutled a ball allowing Geneseo's man to reach third base. Good Fun it was for both spectator and participant. if Back Row Seger, Wilson, Morris, Sleight, R. Conklin. Front Row: Rotte, Starlc, G. Conklin, Phillips, Jaclcson.

NEW YORK April 20, 1940 Mr. William Ross The DuBois Press Rochester, N. Y. Dear Mr. Ross: When this moment comes, when all the copy is in and all the proofs are checked, we feel an overwhelming sense of relief and satisfaction. Watching a yearbook grow- from its very infancy to its final state is fascinating to the members of the Normalian staff. There were many times during the past year when the task of finishing the book on time seemed almost impossible. However, on these occasions, your helpful suggestions and unfailing good spirit gave us the incentive to go on. Without your invaluable aid the work of completing this yearbook would have been far more difficult. The members of the Normalian Staff of 1940 wish to express their gratitude to you and the DuBois Press for your continued cooperation.
