BRIGGS Dean NANCY VETTER Registrar Students, faculty, and the community can well be proud of the growth of Hutchin- son Junior College, but we must never sac- rifice quality for quantity. We want each graduating class in turn to be able honestly to say that teaching gained subsequently did not excel that given in the classrooms of H.J.C., that participation in all activities here was at its best, and that the things taught contributed directly towards making a better living, being alert to the world of our day, and living lives of outstanding service. The financial effort of the community to provide such opportunities must be matched by a hand-picked faculty striving to give their best leadership to our students. In their turn students must match those ef- forts in seeking to learn their many abil- ities and to develop them to their fullest potential. There are no free rides to suc- cess and distinguished service. The college will seek to learn and supply the needs for education and training in our community. lt will continue to stress per- sonalized instruction and close contact be- tween students and faculty for mastery of subject matter plus that something extra- the interplay of wise and mature minds with those of students trying to stretch their horizons to the maximum. Let us all strive together to make our years at H.J.C. some of the finest of our lives. Many achievements of the future will be results of the ways we learned to work and play together at H.J.C. Ellsworth R. Briggs, Dean 4 l2ofvMemowbQeA ' A deep sense of duty, a love of thoroughness and a varied back- ground combine to make Mr. E. C. Campbell a very colorful part of our Junior College. He has taught in the Hutchinson Junior College each year since it was established in 1928, with the exception of a short period dur- ing World War ll. In this period of time he taught in a Glider Training Program at Hays, Kansas, and at Ok- lahoma City, Oklahoma. Later he as- sumed managership of the Hart Pri- mary Flight Training School at Den- ton, Texas. Service to country and community is not new to Mr. Campbell, who in- terrupted his college education to en- list in the United States Navy at the outbreak of World War I. He re- ceived officer's training, spent a training period at Annapolis, and did tours of duty on the battleships Mis- sissippi and Oklahoma. Mr. Camp- bell was on duty ,aboard the Missis- sippi when it carried President Wood- row Wilson on his history-making trip to Paris. Mr. Campbell served also on the destroyer Connar and ended his naval service as Com- mander of the destroyer Downs. Af- ter the war he decided that civilian life held more appeal than a navy career and returned to college. He received his Master of Science De- gree from Oklahoma A8-M at Still- water, Oklahoma, and taught there two years before coming to Hutchin- son Junior College. The Dragon's Tale Staff of 1957- 58 dedicate this year's annual to Mr. E. C. Campbell in tribute to his many services as a member of the faculty of the Hutchinson Junior College. E. C.

Three members of the board are voted on at each regular election by the voters of Hutchinson. This insures a con- tinuity of work and helps to keep some order in the solving of the problems with which the board is confronted. The members of the board are volun- teers, elected by the people of Hutchin- son, who strive for a better school system. Working without pay, these civic-minded individuals formulate policies and direct education in the system. The six public-spirited board members are: Charles Colladay, Harry Coberly, William Ferguson, Harry Faris, James Rexroad and Mrs. J. Richards Hunter. Superintendent of Schools Lowell A. Small and School Clerk Earl W. Pearce also attend the Board Meeting in an ad- visory capacity. BOARD OF EDUCATION-William Ferguson, Harry Coberly, Earl W.

Supporting the team, win or lose, was an important task for the girls' pep club dressed in their uni- forms of red sweaters and dark skirts. With a total of one hundred members the girls planned various activities in- cluding the basketball homecoming. Leading the club were the officers La- Faun McMurry, Mari Hallman, and Janis Libby, with the guiding hand of the faculty sponsor, Miss Mary Hope Morris, always present.

Monthly meetings provide opportunities for social and professional growth through worthwhile programs under the sponsorship of Mrs. Margaret Randles. The 54 members this year have continued the tradition of working to raise money through rummage sales and coffees to sponsor a scholarship for someone coming to Hutch- inson Juco to enter pre-professional training in elemen- tary education. .iw ,..-aus...

TOP ROW A season marred by flu, postponements, and cancellations wound up with the Hutchinson Junior College Blue Dragons moving past Parsons into sixth place in the Kansas Juco con- ference, as the result of a final game upset over Indepen- dence. Coach Bill Goldsmith, running the Split-T in his fifth season as head coach, was faced with trouble from the Par- sons game on, as a starting halfback dropped from school and more than three-quarters of the squad were down with the flu, some two and three times. The league was well- balanced and games were close and well played for the most part. The few one-sided contests were usually occasioned by flu and injury tolls. The Alumni were defeated l2-6 in a season opening practice contest. The first regular season game was a non- conference tilt with Tonkawa, at the Blackwell, Okla. County Fair. Harold Toevs scored to give the Dragons an early lead, but a possible tie was snatched from their grasp when Billy James was ruled shy of the end zone by inches on a fourth down play with seconds left in the ballgame. Tonkawa led tlglroughout the final period, and escaped with a shaky I3-6 e ge. The high spot of the season came on the following week- end, when a Coffeyville win streak that extended back into 106 i955 was snapped before 6,000 thrilled Gowans Stadium spectators. Outstanding line play and scoring runs by Bryce Rivers, Toevs, and James plus an accurate aerial attack, left the defending national champion Red Ravens on the short end of the 24-6 final tally. A game with Fort Lewis A 81 M held in conjunction with the Cortez, Colo. Bean Festival, ended in a 6-6 deadlock. Bill James returned the second-half kickoff 85 yards for a touchdown and the Dragons' only counter in a game marked by rugged defensive play. Returning to their home grounds, the Dragons notched another win, this time over a stubborn Parsons eleven that refused to stay down. James turned in one of the most sensational runs of the year, a twisting, turning 70 yard sprint through the entire Parsons team late in the first half, to establish a lead that was never lost, despite determined fourth quarter Cardinal drives. Fumbleitis struck the following Saturday, and Pratt's Greenbacks cashed the bobbles in for a l4-O win. Pratt controlled the ball and likewise the clock, with the Dragons unable to threaten seriously. With state champion-to-be Dodge City, featuring a de- vastating ground game, moving in next, the coaching staff i E 'Sir snr, Coach Bill Goldsmith, Richard Bogner, Mark Reichenberger, Dave Ghormley, Dick Gisel, John Battitori, Brad Hoover, Ray Bor- den Ron Thompson, Ron Allen, George Palmer, Charles Steinbacher, and Assistant Coach Nelson Sorern, tightened the defense, only to see an offense that sputtered and coughed, but could never mesh gears cleanly against a bigger Dodge forward wall. Dick Gisel stopped several Conquistadore marches with timely pass interceptions, but they weren't enough, and Dodge City kept its record intact with a 20-O triumph. Traveling West to Garden City, Hutchinson saw a win disappear, despite second half comebacks that kept them in the ballgame right up 'till the final gun. Rivers and James rolled up impressive yardage totals on the ground, while Mark Reichenberger and Don Bernard hauled in tosses from James for several first downs. The Busters scored last and held the gate shut long enough to nip the Blue Dragons 33-26. With a big homecoming weekend on tap next, the pestilent flu began to make its influence more keenly felt. Teams that had been nursing several players each game were forced to begin making postponements when there weren't enough boys on hand to hold daily scrimmage sessions. Goldsmith's crew was short nearly half the squad, but elected to play. Independence, however, wasn't able to field even a complete team, and H. J. C. was left with a dance and a queen, but no football game as attempts to find a last minute 7 substitute opponent failed. El Dorado, likewise, cancelled on the next scheduled date, and the Dragons, instead of having a shot at second place in the conference were left idle at the post for three weeks. Ark City presented the last regular season hurdle, and an obstacle they were. Hutch twice presented gifts, in the form of fumbles, to the hardvhitting Tiger defense, and both times the alert Ark Citians turned the miscues into touch- downs, providing the margin for a 27-l4 win. Bernard and James tallied for Hutch, with James toeing both extra points. A fired-up alternate unit held the Tigers on even terms throughout much of the' ballgame, and threatened more often than was registered on the scoreboard. The Independence upset ia makeup of the original post- ponementi marked the close of the i957 grid season. Rivers and Don Wehrstein led the scoring parade in this one, played in near freezing degree temperatures, with a touch- down apiece, and James again hit for a hundred per cent on point-after attempts. A last-ditch offensive by the Pir- ates kept fans on the edges of their seats, but the Dragons emerged victorious, i4-13, completing the year with a 3-5-l record, Alvin Buck Ron Allen Comes Ealwfj ' ' SWEAT such stuff are men made a typical Blue Dragon practice session funds llnemen tolling against an unre- - lentlng blocking sled In preparation for Fridays game.

With less than halt ot this year's squad lost via graduation, a nucleus of lettermen will be on hand for what should be a promising l958 edition of the Blue Dragons TOUCHDOWN . . . Quarterback Billy James hopefully eyes the last chalk line as he opens the scoring in the Parsons game. Hutchinson took the measure of the Cardinals, l9-l2. Harold Toevs The Hutchinson Junior College Blue Dragons, four lettermen strong and marshalled by first year coach Sam Butterfield, possessed' a 16 won and 5 lost record at the end of regular season play and had climaxed an uphill drive in league play by winning three all-important concluding games and tying Ark City and Dodge City for he West-Juco crown. Pre-season rated at num- ber five in the nation, largely because of the fifth place finish nationally by last year's strong club, the Dragons displayed a firehouse brand of offense, which, coupled with an alert, ball- thieving defense captured fans and forced all opponents to the limit from start to finish. With holdovers Merle Harris, Glenn Hamilton, Dick Gisel, Keith Gaeddert, and Mickey Heinz carrying most of the load and a strong bench that includ- ed Maurice Schrag, Norman Utz, Billy James, Royce Lawson, and Bob Veach, the Dragons more than made up for a lack of height with sharp ball-handling, shooting, and hustle. Opening the season at home, Butterfield's crew edged out Bethany Lutheran of Mankato, Minnesota, 61-60 on two last second free throws by forward Mickey Heinz. Norman Utz, in his first college game, came off the bench to trigger the attack with 15 points, With first game jitters behind them, the Dra- gons embarked on a 3 game trip to the north. At Independence they emerged victorious, 60-51, as a tight defense thwarted any sustained Pirate offensive. The concluding two games of the trip at St. Joseph, Missouri, and Fairbury, Ne- braska, resulted in a third win and the season's first taste of defeat. St. Joe, bolstered by 27 free throws, downed the Hutchonions 77-68. Glenn Hamilton led the scoring with 18 points, most of them garnered from outside the free throw line. The next night, the Dragons rolled up 94 points in downing Fairbury 94-66. Dick Gisel hit 21 points for the winners. Returning home, Hutch dropped Carbon College of Price, Utah, 88-56, and prepared for the rugged Mo- berly tournament held December 19th and 20th. ln a first round game the Dragons were sent to the loser's bracket by powerful Fullerton, Cali- fornia, 70-66. The following 'night they bounced back to capture third place at the expense of Lindsey-Wilson of Columbia, Kentucky, by a 100-88 margin. Gisel hit for 31 points on the final night to lead scorers in the consolation game. ln the league opener for both teams, Hutch fell at the hands of Dodge City's Con- quistadofes, 67-71. Easkmus Te 6ovTin0a Bouncing back with a balanced attack the following weekend, the Dragons evened their loop record by defeating El Dorado's Grizzlies Bl-64 after piling up a l5 point half-time mar- gin. Four days later Butterfield's shorter five out-ran and out-maneuvered the Pratt Beavers 84-52 at Pratt. Amarillo, Texas, on a midwestern swing, were downed 84-69, here, and all eyes turned to the big, upcoming clash with Ark City's then-undefeated Tigers. ln a thriller the Dragons were edged out 73-70. .ln a game that remained in doubt right up to the final whistle, Ark City's Del Heidebrecht added another degree of excitement by pumping through 49 points, even though he sat out much of the second half with four fouls. This was Hutch's only home court defeat during the regu- lar season. Revenge defeats began immediately as St. Joseph's Griffons, a leader in Missouri juco ranks, played a return game at the Arena and lost 94-72, as seven Dragons hit for six points or more. League leading Ark City loomed large again in the Dragons' path, but this time Butter- field's quintet enjoyed the fruits of a hard-earned victory. With Heidebrecht held down and Dick Gisel contributing 2l points, the Tigers were felled 74-70. This game, in turn, proved to be Ark City's only regular season, home court loss. A cold spell, from the charity stripe, set in at Garden City, and the Bronc Busters cashed in to drop the Dragons 72-7l in their next league tilt, in overtime. Journeying to Amarillo, Hutch again defeated the Texans, this time 72-58 as Merle Harris dropped through 25 points. On February l4, as Dodge City was upsetting Ark City, Hutchinson gained in the league standings by winning 83-74 from Pratt, Fairbury ran into a red-hot Blue Dragon offensive machine four nights later and limped home with a stinging 107-64 defeat. The bombers never got off the ground as the locals carved a 50-20 half-time lead and went on to run up their season's high- est point total. Throughout most of the season the Dragons ranked among' the nation's leaders offensively, and more important, usually got the points when they needed them. Coming down to the wire the Dragons found themselves trail- ing the two leaders, Dodge City and Ark City and needing three wins in a row to gain a possible tie. And gain it they did! First of the big three was El Dorado on the Grizzlies' home court and they were disposed of 90-65, as the Dragons hit a sizzling 60 per cent of their shots from the field. Next was the big one with Dodge City, the Dragons again were equal to the occasion, edg- ing the leader's 70-68 in an overtime contest, when guard Keith Gaeddert found the range from l8 feet out with only three seconds showing on the clock. On March l, Garden City braved the after effects of a weekend snow storm and fans turned out to see the Dragons race to an early l5-6 lead, which they never relinquished. The 88-69 win entitled the Dragons to share the conference championship with a 7-3 record. After the three top teams came three teams with identical 3-7 records, creating standings with three first place teams and three fourth place teams, The calibre of junior college ball in Kansas was perhaps never better, and Hutch- inson, with eight squad members returning next season, should again give fans of the area good, winning basketball.
