Catlin Completing liis second year as coach of athletics at Midland, Coach Catlin has established a reputation of being one of the best coaches in the state. Ih is a gradu- al� of Millikan I Diversity. Decatur. III., where he earned twelve letters in athletics. Coach Catlin has worked hard in building strong athletic teams while at Mid- land. Ilis football and basket ball teams are feared by all other conference teams, lie has done much to maintain the ideals of manhood and sportsmanship in his department.

From the standpoint of games won and lost, the 1927 football season was not one which could be called an outstanding success. However, the Midlanders had one of the hardest schedules of the conference and despite numerous injuries, they were able to give the best teams of the state a hard battle. In conference games played, the Warriors finished the season with a .500 per- centage, winning three games, losing three and tying two. The scores for the season are: •Midland . 0 Still 7 0 0 Midland 6 . 10 Midland 0 Peru .. 20 Midland ...101 Dana . 0 Midland .... 13 3 Midland 6 York 6 Midland 44 Wayne . 0 Midland 12 Chadron 52 'Non-conference game.

CAPTAIN RAY FREDSTROM “Swede” End A «real captain, who was 1 iked by all who played under him, and who kept the team always fighting as a team. As an end he was always in the thick of it. Had his shoulder injured for quite a while, but came back and cracked 'em all the harder for it. He will soon be carrying a sheepskin instead of a pigskin. HANS KOOLEN “f ansy” Guard “Hansy was our all around man for the season. He played guard and center all season and don't think for a minute that he didn't earn his all-conference selec- tion. TIans was as good a punter as there was in the whole conference. When he kicked the old pill, every one wondered what that little speck was way up there in the ether. Whenever the team needed a few yards, “Hansy” would open a hole large enough for the whole backfield to go through. He also wears his cap and gown next June. JOHN CUNNINGHAM “Punk” Tackle and Half “Punk” was the kind of a tackle, that made the opposing backs wish that they had stayed home and played marbles. I ndoubtcdly the hardest hitter on the team. When he was shifted to halfback he proceeded to show those he had stopped, just how it should be done. He goes out into the cruel, cruel world next year after three years on the team and we'll miss him very much. MARTIN KOOLEN “Marty” Halfback One of the shiftiest, fastest, flyingest halfbacks we’ve seen for many a moon. When an opposing player did get close enough to try to tackle, he always came up trying to got the dirt out of his mouth, wondering where the “Dutchman” was. This happy faculty of not being where expected, when expected, made him an all-confer- ence selection. He's a senior and Oh! how we ll miss his runs next year. Rock. Kistlcr, Lichlitcr. Petersen. CAPTAIN-ELECT VADEN ROCK “Rocket” Tackle Coming back as captain of next year's team, much is expected of “Rocket. lb is a big man and a smashing tackle if there ever was one. He is one of the kind that make the opposing half wonder who took the brakes off that box car. “Rocket” was on the final end of many passes and he snagged them too, counting yards and yards on them, lie will be a real leader for the 1928 Warrior eleven. LUTHER KISTLER “Luler” Guard A brother to “Big-Bad-Bill of last year and he seems to be able to keep up the family reputation. He played, a whale of a game at either guard o rtackle. Was about as hard to get through as one of Prof. Gimmestad s semester examinations. This was “Luker’s” second year on the team and he has another one left. STUART LICHLITER “Lick” End “Lick” was switched from half to end and he soon decided to show them that he could stop them as well as go through them. He snagged a number of passes during the season and accounted for a lot of Midland's yardage. The pass he snagged at Doane almost won the game, but not quite; now it was a pretty nice catch and run. WALTER PETERSEN “Little Pete” Quarter A fighting little quarter from Grand Island. He hit them just as hard in practice as he did in a game. Had tin pep to keep the team going at topi speed all of the time. Was handy on his little quarter sneak and every now and then In went around the end for several yards. He was a heady and consistent player and he is only a freshman. Page Eight)-five Metz. Colson. Miller. Nordstrom. EDWIN METZ “Eddie” Center “Eddie played a bang up game at center this year, being transferred from guard. He was new at that position but lie played center like he had played it all his life. He was an accurate passer and a bard-bitter on both offense and defense. That ankle of “Eddie’s made lots of us moan every time that it was twisted. ()U ENTI N COI.SON “Quinr Yu 11 back When he got started toward the center of the line. Bang! Crash! Bend! Break! And there was Colson down there a couple of yards or maybe a couple of chalk- marks, with none, or some, or all of the opposition hanging on. It didn't seem to make much difference how many there were. Speaking of locomotives demolishing automobiles, well— ALBERT MILLER “Hert” Guard A really mean guard, who doesn't say much or get into many spectacular plays, but many were the plays that Miller stopped during the season. He was about the most concentrated package of dynamite in these parts. Although he had an injured shoulder most of the season he was out to the field every night. RAUL NORDSTROM “Swiss” Half and Full Some of us wondered if our basketball captain could play footfall. He showed us all that he had seen a football before, in fact, he looked like his folks gave, him one for bis first birthday. He was a sweet hall carrier and when he wrapped his hand around that pigskin. Oh my! The opposing team’s coaches always coached their teams on passing defense all the next week. Peterson, Quelle. I vers. ALTON PETERSEN Big Pete” End “Hard-luck-Pete. If il wasn't one shoulder it was the other. Injuries were his jinx, hut lie always cracked 'em, no matter how big they were. “Pete'' hit ’em too hard, always thinking that unless his own teeth were falling out, he wasn’t hitting them so they could even feel it. He'll be back and we are looking forward — CARL QUELLE Dutch Guard Always ready, ‘ Dutch played a real game when he was called on. Whenever a ball carrier got past him they had to get a couple or three others to boost him over “Dutch's head and few there were who got back there, lie is only a sophomore so we expect a lot from him before he leaves us. WILLIAM IVERS Bill” Tackle Another freshman from Grand Island who proceeded to show us all that they make 'em tough out in G. I. “Bill” used to lay the other end, or tackle, or guard, or all three of them down and play Liza crossing the ice on their backs. He didn't get to play all the time but showed the old Warrior spirit when called on. He has three more years with us and should do wonders. GILBERT BRAYTON “Gib” Half and Quarter Fremont high contribution and how it did help out. “Gib was one of the best interference men on the team—an exceptionally good passer a punier and a hard- hitting line smasher. In fact, “Gib was a triple threat man if there ever was one. He and “Snuss shot those posses so hard that the ends began to wonder where the boys borrowed the cannons. Page Eighty-seven SEASON RESUME It will ho noted that the individual achievements of the members of the teams have been left out of the game summaries. This was done intentionally, because it is too often that one individual gets credit when it is due, in just as great measure to another who inconspicuously did his part making the play successful. The team played as a team and when a beautiful run was made it was because the whole team, eleven men. not one. were in the thick of the play. Partiality and individual achievements have their place, and should not he carried into the games. Kvery man on the squad did the best he knew how, all the time, and by doing this made the Warrior team feared by all. not as a few brilliant stars, but as a well- rounded team. Midland 0 Still 7 Opening the season with a non-conference game with Still College of Osteopathy, l)es Moines, la.. Coach Catlin's Warriors showed that they would he a team that would be greatly feared later in the year. The game was a very interesting one, with both sides playing about the same caliber of football. The only score of the game was made when the “Boncsetters intercepted a Midland pass and thus got into such a position that they were later able to score. This score was made late in the game, in fact had it been made earlier, or had there been more time left, the score might have been different. The Warriors rallied and were on their way to a touchdown when the final gun sounded, and so the score that goes down on the books is Midland 0. Still 7. Midland 0 H eslcyan 0 Jusi another game on the gridiron for Midland with its old rival, Wesleyan, and just another game that ended as many before it have ended. A scoreless tie —so history repeats itself. It seems that a black shrouded figure follows the Warriors in their conflicts with the Coyotes and this jinx remained with them this year. Although outplaying tin Coyotes in every phase of the game the Warriors were unable to push over a touchdown. With the ball on the one foot line and three downs to put it over a Warrior back fumbled and Wesleyan recovered. The best chance of the game shot, as well as the first football victory over Wesleyan in Midland history. The final score was Midland 0, Wesleyan 0. Midland 6 Doanc 10 This game marked the first conference defeat of the season for the Warriors. There was no team in the state, with the possible exception of Chadron. which could be classed in the same plane with the team from Doane. The Tigers were big and they were also good. I'he Warriors were somewhat handicapped by injuries, there being li e regulars out. An intercepted pass made by a Midland end followed b a beautiful run. counted for the six points in the score column. The defenses of the two teams were head and shoulders above the offenses of either. Doane had the championship team of the conference, and they earned the victory, but in going to defeat, the Warriors did so gloriously. The game ended, Midland 6. Doane 10. Midland 0 Peru 20 Before a large crowd of old grads, present for Homecoming Day, Coach Gatlin's Warriors displayed some of the old Warrior spirit and light when they were de- feated by the Peru Bobcats. Although handicapped approximately twenty pounds to the man. the Warriors went out there and cracked the Normaliles for all they were worth. Many was the time that Midland would stop Peru in its tracks, hut the weight and experience told against the Warriors and. aided hy several breaks, the Bobcats pushed over their twenty points. Midland was unable to score, however, Peru's protected goal line was almost crossed when a Midland player recovered a blocked punt and all but scored. The game will be remembered as the best game of the season, the final result being, Midland 0, Peru 20. Midland 101 Dana 0 Running up the highest score ever made by a Midland football team, the War- riors trounced Dana, 101 to 0. Dana college having just entered the state confer- ence at the beginning of the season, was not in the same plane as the Warriors and was completel) outclassed by Gatlin's men. “Punk Cunningham, now in the backfield. made five touchdowns, while Marty Koolen scored four. The large score was made possible only through the playing of the eleven men. and not the individual playing of am one man. Something should he said concerning the spirit and light of the Dana team. Although hopelessly defeated they gave I lie game all they had until the final whistle was blown. The score. Midland 101, Dana 0. Midland 13 Hastings 3 This game may be classed as the most thrilling and the most extraordinary game of the year. It is a game which had in it six minutes of the most concentrated effort ever witnessed on the Midland gridiron. A Midland punt was grounded by a Midland player before it had hit the ground and the officials, interpreting this is an interference to a fair catch, gave the Hast- ings team a free chance at a goal kick. McGrady, Hastings quarterback, standing on the fifty-two yard line, booted as pretl a drop kick as ever seen on the Midland field. This little handicap, thought by some to be a donation, served as the fuse for some dynamite which was soon let loose. The Warriors' blood was up and in six minutes of the most powerful offense uncorked by the team during the season, Midland chalked up thirteen points. The game ended Midland 13, Hastings 3. Midland 6 Yorl( 6 Although outplaying the York Panthers in every department of the game. Mid- land had to content itself with a six to six tie in this game. York’s first touchdown in history against a Midland team came in the first quarter after a Midland fumble had shown them that there was a Santa Claus after all. Midland, at the start of the second quarter, began another drive similar to the one the week previous against Hastings, and it soon scored a touchdown. Another touchdown was made on a recovered fumble but this was disallowed. The Warriors outplayed the Panthers eleven first clowns to two in the last half hut they could not push over another score. The game resulted in a tie. Midland 6. York 6. Midland 44 IVapne 0 In a game quite similar to the Dana episode of some weeks before, the Warriors defeated the Wayne Normalites by a very large score. It seems that the two War- rior hack field aces. “Marty and “Punk. decided that they would be impolite to the guests and let them look at the back of a Warrior jersey for a while. When the smoke of the battle, or rather the snow, cleared away. Midland had scored forty-four points and had held it?- opponents scoreless. The game was played on a snow covered field, which was quite slick. The playing was neither very in- teresting nor very thrilling. Score. Midland II. Wayne 0. Midland 12 Chadron 52 Journeying, via bus. into Northwestern Nebraska. Midland was defeated by Chad- ron on Thanksgiving Day in tin final game of the season. Garvin. Chadron backfield star, was the outstanding player of the game, making twenty-four points for his school. F.ven though the Warriors were defeated, they were the first team to cross the Kagles’ goal line in three years. “Marty and “Swede both turning the trick. The game was also Midland's worst defeat in nine years, but every Midland player seemed to think that the Kagles deserved every score that they made. The final score was Midland 12. Chadron 52. STUDENT MANAGER I ERIC HARMAN Too much cannot he said in the praise of the work which Student Manager I Iric Harman has done during the past year. If anyone thinks that the job is a snap, lei them try it just once—that will he enough. “Ole was always ready to do this or that, get this or that, or what have you. He gave his best time to his duties as Student Manager, never failing when called upon to perform some duty. “Ole was well liked, by the players and also by the visiting teams, and he should have been , because he is a real fellow and a tireless worker. ASSISTANT FOOTBALL COACH PINKALL Ailhur Pinkall, one of Midland's own football products, having played on the championship team of 1922. assisted Coach Catlin in the coaching of the football squad. Pinkall, was said to be one of the most powerful tackles to have ever played on a Midland team. His knowledge of the duties of a lineman and how this may be instilled into the varsity men, made Midland's line one of the best in the conference. Pinkall’s work was very satisfactory and because of his keeping the line in such good shape, Coach Catlin was able to work much more with the backfield. BASKET BALL TOURNAMENT The fourth annual invitation high school basket ball tournament, sponsored by the “M Club, was held in the Midland and Junior high Gymnasiums March 2 and 3. A record entry of thirty-three teams participated and the tourney is regarded as the most successful ever held at Midland. The teams completing were: Class A: Arlington, Nebraska School for Deaf, Columbus, Mead. Brainard, Oakland. Fre- mont, and Waterloo. Class R: Valley, Howells, Schuyler, David City, Snyder, Herman, Papillion. North Bend. Klkhorn, Hooper, and Scribner. Class C: Tekamah, Leigh, Cedar Bluffs, Craig, Dodge, Stanton, Kennard. Arlington Reserves, Uehling, Humphrey, Rising City, Lyons, Decatur, and W eston. Arlington high school was by far the class of the tournament, having a well- polished team, which was never pushed to the limit in winning the Class A trophy. The Arlington quintet defeated the Nebraska School for Deaf. 28 to 19, in the finals. Valley had a nice team and succeeded in carrying off the ('lass B honors by defeat- ing Howells 27 to 19 in the finals. In Class C there was some real competition and the outcome was in doubt until the final game. Tekamah won over Leigh by a score of 16 to 13 to win the Class C cup. The all-tournament teams by classes chosen by officials of the tourney were as follows: Class A: Forwards, Decker, Arlington, and Triba, Columbus; guards, Thomas, Fremont, and Deharsh. Mead; center, Alexander, Arlington. Class B: Continued on Page 99� BASKET BALL SQUAD Top row: li:irmnn, Brink, I’cierscn, Ghormley. Koolcn, Helling, Coach Catlin. Second row: Krebs. Kistler. Johnson. Miller, Nordstrom. Il may lx said without any hesitancy that the 1928 basket ball season was the best in the history of Midland since its removal to Fremont. In the newly formed Nebraska Collegiate Athletic Conference the Warriors tied with Wesleyan for third place with six wins out of ten starts. In other inter-collegiate games they were victorious in five out of the same number played. In two other games with amateur quintets Midland dropped both. This gave the Warriors a season record of eleven wins out of seventeen games. Much credit for the great success of the season is due tlie substitutes and reserves. These persons were out every night for scrimmage, fighting just as hard as the regulars, without getting any credit or glory. They were banged around, beaten time after time, but they continued coming out and giving the varsity that practice which is so vital to any team. Let us give these men the c redit they deserve, for all the: nearer that some of them came to getting into the game was to sit on the bench a time or two, and some didn't e cn get that chance. CAPTAIN PAUL NORDSTROM Forward “Snuss' our eagle-eved captain, proved to all of us that he is the best player who ever donned the Orange and Black on the basket ball floor. Without a doubt, he was the class of tin conference forwards. It has been said that our captain stayed up all one night trying to miss a basket. LUTHER KISTLER Guard “Luker was this year's find at guard. He used to play at the forward post, hut this year he was shifted to guard and to say the least, he did some wonderful work. He's from Bunker Hill. Kan., but from the number of points he scored he didn't always wait until he saw the whites of their eyes before he took a shot. ALBERT MILLER Guard “Bert was the other half of the defense, and Boy! did he smear them? He didn't make any all-state team, but he surely deserved it. He was in on every play and defended the Midland fortress in many a tough skirmish. A little poem that could he dedicated to Miller goes something like this—“He spoils the shots, where'er he squats. ALEXIS JOHNSON Center “Lex,” our tip off man. who got them from any center in the state. He had a good eye for the basket, too—being fifth high in the conference. “Lex is a shoe peddler in the day time, and then journeys out to the gym to play a little drop eye in the evenings. It has been heard on the campus that he will be of quite some aid to bis mother when he reaches maturity. Page ineiy-seven Krcl's. I’clerscii. Mc!linjr , Ghormlcy. GEORGE KREBS Forward “Krebs proved to be a fit running mate for “Snuss. Many are the times lie passed the ball to “Snuss when, he might just as well have taken a shot himself, lb was. undoubtedly, the fastest man on the squad, usually about half the length of the floor ahead of bis shadow. ALTON PETERSEN Guard and Center “Pete, our immaculate blonde guard. He played a bang-up game when he was in there, and «lid some fine work at center when “Lex was out. “Pete could work with anybody or in any position, this faculty being of much help to the squad. 11 is graceful form breaks up both opposing offenses and numerous fair damsel's hearts. FRANK HEELINGS Guard “Frankie. our auburn haired guard. As sweet and as active a player as one lias ever seen. Speaking of tanglefoot sticking to and covering, well His only failing is that be goes in loo hard every now and then. He was a human stop-light to opposing forwards. Remember You can't say “no to a red head. DALE GHORMLEY Forward “Dale was new on the squad this year, and proceeded to show the boys that he had seen a basket ball before. Worked in well with any combination, and was exceptionally good on follow in shots. If only lie hadn't labored under that in- feriority complex so much of the time. They say that bis “Chevie will ruin him yet. Brink. Koolcn EUGENE BRINK Guard “Gene wasn’t l i«r or tall as some of them but lie had that happy faculty of always appearing on the scene and being in the way just about the time the oppos- ing forward had visions of bis name in the scoring column. He is a lighter and plays the game for all there is in it all the time. If only he wasn't so crazy about the women. HANS KOOLEN Forward “Hansy was the same dependable man in basket ball that he was in football. Worked well at any of tin positions on tin’ team, but he played forward most of the time. He was a fighter every minute in the game. He was the only senior on the basket ball squad this year. (Continued from I’ape 93� Forwards. Wicklund, Valley, and Gaines. Herman: guards. Presba.

Silver loving cups, indicative of the titles won. were presented to the winners of the three classes by the college. The high school athletes were also guests at the Midland-Hastings game. Much credit for the success of the tournament must be given to the members of the “M Club for the very commendable way in which thev handled the meet. t SEASON RESUME The opening game of the season was played on the local floor against Simpson college of Indianola, la. The Warriors were leading 27 to 20. when in a lit of anger the Simpson coach, claiming that the referee was “throwing the game for Midland, ordered his men to sit down and quit playing. The team obeyed orders, and the last four minutes the score went up to 57 to 20. The first part of the game was a great game, but the little “I'll lake my marbles, etc.. was thoroughly disgusting. Omaha University was next and it was defeated 15 to 23. It was rather an uninteresting game with the Warriors looking a hundred per cent better than in the previous game. The first defeat of the season was encountered the next week, this being the outcome of a short visit to Doane college, where the team came out just ten points shy. The score was 25 to 15. and this was about right. The defense put up by I)oa lie’s all-conference guards was the stillest met so far, and the Warrior offense was held to the lowest score of the season. The next game which was played on the local court was one of the high spots of the season. The Hastings team came here with as long a string of wins over Midland teams as it could have. The Warriors were ready for them, and suc- ceeded in trimming the Bronchos 23 to 21. It was a speedy game and thrilling all the way through. Of course “Lex had to get on the sick list, and while he was home in bed. the team dropped two hard luck games. The first to York by one point. 22 to 21. and the next to Wesleyan by two points, 16 to 11. Don’t forget though, that “Pete played a mighty sweet game at center in “Lex’s place. These were two losses which were hard to take because they meant that the hope for the championship was gone. Seemingly angered by these two losses, the Warriors went on the warpath and added a couple of scalps to their belts. In fact, they won three games, without being hard pressed in am of them. Wayne 30 to 23. Coiner 32 to 20. and then another win over Wayne II to 13. After this little spree Midland again met the one point jinx team, York this time the score being 37 to 36 in favor of the Panthers in an extra period game. Another heartbreaker making three games being lost by only four points. Fate seemed against the Orange and Black players, but they did not give up. This was shown in the next game when the Midland Warriors were victorious in a game with Nebraska Central which rivaled the Dana football game, the score being 101 to 17. This game established a new high point game record for the conference. Coiner was again easily defeated 16 to 27. Then “Kevcngc is sweet,’’ so it is said, and so Midland trounced the Wesleyan Coyotes 12 to 23. and this victory sort of washed the bad taste of the 16 to 1 1 defeat away. The Warriors next won from Omaha I Diversity, 12 to 19, in what might be classed as just another game. A very interesting non-conference game was next on the schedule. The Omaha Athletic Club, with Al Brown, former all-North Central forward, and Gcrelick, former Nebraska guard, not to mention the others, came up to show the Warriors a thing or two about the game. Midland was shown, but not so badly either. It was a great game and ended with the visitors ahead 21 to 16. The game was possibly the best basket ball exhibition ever given on the local floor. Now came the big finale. Doane, after being defeated by 't ork, and thus cheated out of the championship, came here for blood. The Warriors had not for- gotten the early season defeat at the hands of these? Doane cagers. flic game was a sort of rough affair and the ability of the Warriors to count from the free throw line won it for them, 'flic score was 23 to 17, and furnished a fitting climax to Midland’s conference schedule. After the season was over Coach ('at I in entered his proteges in the Midwest A. A. I . tournament at Omaha. In its first round, Midland was defeated in a listless game by the Lincoln Sporting Goods Co., of Lincoln, 39 to 3.3. A record of 1 Coach Gatlin's Warriors’ basket ball scores for the season follows: Midland 57 Simpson 20 Midland 45 23 •Midland 15 25 •Midland 23 Hastings 21 •Midland . 21 22 •Midland 14 Wesleyan 16 Midland 30 23 •Midland 32 Cotner .... 20 Midland -11 13 •Midland 36 37 •Midland 104 17 •Midland .. 46 Cottier 27 •Midland 42 Wesleyan 23 Midland 42 19 Midland .. 16 Omaha A.

In the 17 games played Midland scored 627 points, while tin op- posing quintets chalked up 388. Page One llumlretf One TENNIS TEAM To say that the tennis team of 1927 was the best that ever represented Midland would most likel he correct. I rider the tutelage of Coach Catlin, the team, composed of Robert Waterhouse. Harold Pack wood. Luther Patterson, and Fritz Krueger, rounded into good shape and completed a fairly successful season. The team won three out of five of the inter-school meets, being defeated twice by the state champion Wesleyan team. In the first meet of the season the Warrior team defeated Omaha Lniversity four matches to two. Wesleyan then handed the team a six to nothing defeat, and this was followed by six to nothing victory over Dana. Midland, then, again de- feated Omaha, four to two, and later lost to Wesleyan six to nothing. In the State Tournament, Patterson was defeated in the first round of the singles competition. The doubles team of Waterhouse and Pack wood reached the semi- finals where they were defeated by the Wesleyan team which later won the championship. Letter� in tennis were awarded to Robert Waterhouse, Harold Pack wood, and Luther Patterson. Harrison. Ilerek. Eugene Harrison, cheer leader during the 1027 basket ball season, again led the pep rallies during the football season. Always alive and full of spirit, “Gene never let a game go by without a clever rally or skit to furnish the team with the necessary moral support. With “Gene as the instigator, many famous shirt-tail parades, bonefires, and exhibitions were staged which shall go down in the annals of Midland's history. Samuel Berek was elected cheer leader for the basket ball season to succeed “Gene. By his ready wit and humor, “Sam kept the students keyed to a high point of enthusiasm. With “Sam on the door leading the cheering, not a moment was allowed to drag. Mucji of the credit for the line spirit shown at the games is due to “Sam's ability to rise to the occasion with new yells and songs. Cecil Muller assisted in the cheer leading in both the football and basket ball seasons. Having been cheer leader at Fremont high school for two years, Cecil proved himself very capable in this capacity. I’age One Hundred Three ATHLETIC BOARD Top row: Prof. Kami. Nordstrom, Coach Gatlin.

Herman O i inmost :ul Midland lias been fortunate in having for a coach in forensics this year a man of ability; a man who has spent tireless effort not only in coaching this year's debaters and orators but also training students for future teams. In the first year that Professor Gimmestad has been at .Midland lie has won the respect and admiration of bis students, lie has upheld the ideals of sportsman- ship and fair play and lias worked continuously for a better type of debate. It was mainly through his efforts that the annual high school debate tournament was a success. DEBATERS Top row: Swan. Search, Coder, Tanner, Barlow. Second row: Awerkamp. Diehsen, Toops. l’rof. G: mines tad. Tonsing. Winning six out of nine contests the Midland debaters completed a very good season in forensics.

MIDLAND OFFICERS Willnir Klovcr. Lightner Swan. The Midland has this year continued to improve as to general make-up. news, features, and organization. Much credit for the success of this weekly paper is due to its officers. Wilbur KI over was made Editor-in-Chief at the Theta Gamma Epsilon banquet last year. Mis abilities as a writer and organizer became known when he so ably fulfilled his duties as managing editor for The Midland last year. “Bill carried out his duties in a most creditable manner and was largely re- sponsible for adding another page of success to tin history of The Midland. Lightner Swan as Business Manager served his second year in this capacity for The Midland.

During the second semester the members of tin Journalism class had a chance to edit the paper until Paul Lewis and Wallace Livers were chosen to jointly fill the position vacated by the resignation of Wilbur Mover. Loth have had journalism and previous experience in newspaper work. Paul as (‘ditor of the Midland Student Handbook and Wallace as reporter on the 1927 Warrior. This year the journalism class, from which reporters for The Midland are chosen, had an excellent chance to receive training as staff members. Not only did they have a chance to edit one paper but also they had all of their work supervised by Professor Reck, head of the journalism department. Other faculty representatives who also gave a great deal of help to the staff were Professor Herman Gimmestad and Professor I). W. Crouse. One part of the paper which was much used this year was the “Student Forum. This gave much more interest to the paper and made it truly the voice of the students. Those reporting for The Midland were: Mated Hawk, Stuart Lichliter. Ernest Tonsing. Charles Barlow, Carl F. Quelle, Paul Lewis, and Wallace Livers. WARRIOR OFFICERS William Sudman. Harold Pack wood. In publishing a year book which will really be a student publication, the Editor- in-Chief lias a great responsibility. William Sudman has met that responsibility in such a way that this book will continue in later years to bring enjoyment to the students as they review their experiences chronicled in it. “Bill lias worked unslintingly to make this annual a success and much credit is due him for this improved Warrior. In addition to the editing and publishing of the Warrior there is the problem of financing it. Harold Packwood, as Business Manager, has worked out these problems in such a way that the nineteen twenty-eight Warrior is a financial as well as literary suc- cess. He has been ably assisted by Lyman Burkholder who served this year as as- sistant Business Manager. Page One Hundred Thirty-nine WARRIOR STAFF Top row: It ink holder. Lewis. Petersen. Mcldrum.

Let us show our appreciation of this fact by trading at and boosting their places of business. Personality Plus Every human being owes it to sell', family and God to make the most of their personality. An education is one of the greatest possible aids in development of personality, and a church college affords the best opportunities for this type of edu- cation that shall develop personality to its highest reach. A good personality without an education is worth much; but when there is added to personality, a four years' course of training in a church school, the pos- sessor has personality plus. Midland has a unity, a harmony, a definiteness of purpose that makes it an excellent school for the de- velopment of character, and the preparation for leadership in life.

Much of the wisdom of life can be found tucked away in some bit of slang, such as, “keep your eye on the ball”—an admoni- tion that one should remember long after college days are past. A quarter of a century ago the J. C. Pen- ney Company was only a small-town store in an obscure mining village. Just because we have grown to a nation-wide institu- tion of 954 stores doesn’t mean that a single store can afford to lose sight of the ball. Absolute customer satisfaction is the bas- ket we aim at. If you see us falling short at any time we’ll be glad to have you drop around and tell us about it.

This history was written for the 1927 Warrior. The Hall of Fame was also compiled and written for the 1927 Warrior by Mr. Quelle. Midland College came into existence as a child of the dawn of Christian educa- tion in the middle west. Like all the older colleges and universities in this country, and the majority of the younger colleges, the institution owes its existence io the Church. In fact, it is the child of the Lutheran Church east and west. The idea to establish this “western college” was conceived in the realization that it was necessary to create a Christian institution of higher learning. It was evident (Corner Third and Main Streets FREMONT that such a school would promote the social and political, moral and spiritual, as well as the economic welfare of the great constituency of the Lutheran pioneers on the plains west of the Mississippi river. The first sentiment expressing this vision of a denominational school was pro- mulgated in the form of a petition for a Board of Kdueation. This body, after its appointment and organization, created Midland College. A copy of this petition appears in the proceedings of the thirty-second convention of the General Synod of the Lutheran Church in the United States, which convened in Zion’s Lutheran Church at Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, May 27 to June 2, 1885. This church is still active and could be visited today in case one might chance to be in the city of Harrisburg. The petition reads as follows: “WHEREAS.

On motion, this petition was referred to a committee. It consisted of the chair- man of delegations from the afore-mentioned synods, whose report is here in part reproduced: That this Board secure for the General Synod any lands which may he donated for educational purposes, provided that conditions shall not he accepted so as to compel injudicious location. In the event of offers for the establishment of an institution, the consideration of the same shall he referred to said Board for decision. Rev. Mosheim Rhodes. I).

Further developments accrued at «he thirlv-lhird convention of die General Synod assembled in the old Kountze Memorial Church, then situated on the northeast corner of Sixteenth and Farnam streets, in Omaha, Nebraska. June I to 13, 1887. This location is a landmark in the histon of Midland College. Here, the General Synod decided to establish a college in the west. At this time, also, the same both assigned to the Board of Education its first specific duty, namely, the founding and sustaining of the future western college. Propositions to the board for the location of a college had been presented by nine different cities and towns in Kansas and Nebraska. Two of them were regarded especially worthy of note, namely. Atchison, Kansas, and Beatrice Nebraska. The 1 Fremont Gandy Kitchen i ! JOHN PETROW, Proprietor | Refreshments and Light Lunches Served at All Hours.

The name selected for the institution was that which it now hears. Midland College. The school opened in the fall of 1887 with seventeen students enrolled in the collegiate department, the first building to be occupied was the Atchison Institute building, owned and formerly used by Harriet Karbari Monroe, an ardent Lutheran, who had up to that time conducted an academy. A faculty of nine members was selected. Rev. Moshcim Rhodes, I). I)., who contributed delinite policies to the college, was president pro tern. Prof. W . H. Wynn. Ph. I)., from whom the Wynn Literary Society gets its name, and who suggested the name “Kalophronean for the other literary society, was dean and professor of Ancient and Modern Languages. Rev. W. B. Glanding. A. ML. was professor of Mathematics and Natural Sciences. Other instructors were Franz A. Lem me. German and French; Gertrude DuBois Wynn. Art; Phoebe Clark and Fid ward S. Karhart. A. VI., instructors of preparatory classes; Rev. J. S. Detweilcr and Harriet Karhart Monroe. Rev. Dr. Wynn for a time, also, acted as president of the college. The first president of Midland College, Rev. Jacob A. Clutz. I). I)., was inaugu- rated in 1889. He furthered the eminently successful policies, already shaped by l)r. Rhodes, in expanding the college. The personal it of Dr. ('.lutz permeated the entire college and constituency, and was a great contributing factor in firmly estab- lishing tin institution. He had a well-stored mind of unusual penetration and was a teacher of superior ability. The president possessed a splendid executive ability and could express himself in a plain manner without giving offense, and had the g'IT flour «S a memory - O «Ship IC U� U at t|0„r bidding jn after Mca� S t udjiSK M«u Ta aw i� teir-Po� goiL-n comrades, jj S«vnes.ana incidents � h«V u� e� e an «separable p-� rt „f your Schn l-lifc ‘cJ lk ic at ArtCrdflS arc 3. tnc� o«� d M f t� V;r A j'.'o'V vf CnjV.wYng C«aftS J1 mPr� “nd .vt'Jts uiho a� 'c Kno� un 1 for UV‘r skill ana the | ain$takirg fj cai - with u h ch then- looifc ;s c .

Clutz's administration in 1901, three buildings had been erected on the campus; the main building, Atchison Hall; the girls' dormitory. Oak Hall; a small gymnasium. The student body by this time had increased to thirty in the collegiate department. 'Fhe Western Theological Seminary was established during this administration, theological instruction at Midland College was authorized in 1893, and the first class of Five men was graduated two years later. By the authority and direction of the General Synod held at Hagerstown, Maryland, in June. 1895, the Seminary was formally opened in the fall of the same year with Rev. Frank I). Altman, D. I)., as the first president. Rev. Millard F. Troxell. I). I)., became the second president in 1901. To him may be attributed the extension of the building program and the addition of mate- rial equipment. It was during his administration that the Carnegie Library was built and an extensive amount of laboratory equipment was added. In 1910 Midland College and the Western Theological Seminary were reorga- nized as a single institution. I p to this time the Seminary had been under direct supervision and control of the Board of Education. This merger placed both insti- tutions under the direction and control of the Board of Trustees of Midland College. Rev. Holmes Dysinger. I). I)., who now serves the Seminary in that office, was chosen dean. He acted as president for a time in 1912. until the next president came into office. His interests have mainly been with the divinity school. Dr. Dysinger’s great accomplishment has been the standardization of theological courses. Rev. Rufus B. Peerv, Ph. I)., I). 1)., succeeded Dr. Troxell as the next executive in 1912. His aim in life seemed to he the attainment of the highest standard for humanity, which carried its influence into the life of the college. A new modern gymnasium was built during his term. In 1918, Rev. Ezra E. Stauffer, 1). I)., came to the office of the presidency. Under his administration a great increase in enrollment was noted. Dr. Stauffer successfully engineered the great task of moving the college from Atchison, Kansas, to Fremont, Nebraska, in 1919. The purpose for changing the location was to place Midland in the heart of her constituency. Fremont was chosen because it is nearer the center of western Lutheranism. The Fremont Normal buildings, which are still occupied by the college, were purchased from William H. Clemmons. They are the Main Building, East and West Hall, and Clemmons Hall, the latter being finished after Midland moved to Fremont. Dr. Stauffer’s great contribution was the firm establishment of the support and constituency on the new territory. It was the mission of Rev. John F. Krueger, Ph. I).. I). I)., whose presidential term began in 1922. to popularize the institution.

A material addition was the construction of the new Gymnasium-Commons building. Rev. Horace F. Martin, Ph. I).. I). I)., the present president of the college, as- sumed the duties of his office in 1925. He has given a great deal of time to the study of student problems. The financial work of the institution has been placed on an organized basis. Dr. Martin, with his zeal for Christian stewardship has se- cured a great number of men for the ministry. Materially, his contribution has been to inaugurate a campaign for the completion of the girls dormitory. This brings the history of Midland College to the present A great vision has been fulfilled; a Lutheran institution has been established in the middle west. The storv of Midland begins as one of privation and sacrifice, yet one of fervent prayer, and buoyant hope, of sincere faith and boundless work. These have continued as the factors of her gradual progress and are the forces that have made the institu- tion what it is today. HALL OF FAME Midland graduates have stood out prominently in many professions and occu- pations. The attempt to visibly place this fact before the eyes of present Midlanders has emerged into this Hall of Paine, 'flius. the student may have an example who has stepped from this campus into his chosen field. Also.it i hoped that the as- pirations of the student ma thus be heightened. The purpose in assembling this Hall of Fame is not primarily to set forth all of the prominent and successful persons in their particular fields of work, but rather, wortln respresenlatives from the different lines of activity have been selected to show the diversity of calling pursued by Midland graduates.
