Cardinal Cardinal Koy's Scholarship Tea found Mrs. Sara Hawkin- son presiding at the refresh- ment tablo. Cardinal Key taps into its membership Midland women who have proved them- selves outstanding in scholarship, leader- ship, service, loyalty and character. Under the leadership of President Ruth Bergfelder, Cardinal Key embarked upon a year of service and activity which began with the welcoming of newcomers to the campus at the opening of school in the fall. In October this nalional honorary service sorority again took a leading part in campus affairs by directing Guidance Week and entertaining former members at the tradi- tional Homecoming breakfast at Salem Lu- theran Church. Other highlights of the year were the Scholarship Tea in February, honoring Mid- land women and Fremont High School senior girls with high scholastic achieve- ments, and formal dinner and initiation of new members in April at which alumnae were guests. Another major spring event was the initiation of the Wesleyan chapter of Cardinal Key by the Midland group. Mrs. Lydia Peterson was sponsor this year and other officers were Helen Bleuel, vice-president; Gertrude Herling, secretary, and Naomi Korn, treasurer. Doris Eckert, Darlene Feye, Phyllis Lierk, Carol Munson, Loueva Pflueger and Margaret Stoltenberg were remaining members. Seated, loft to right: Stoltenborg. Munson. Sponsor Paterson, Borgfclder.

Long black robes were the attire of those solemn upperclassmen who as members of the Student Court met in several sessions last fall to help fresh- men become good Midlanders. Jim Youngquist, as chief justice of the court, wielded the gavel and was assisted by associate justices Ruth Bergfelder, Rich Clough, Trudy Nolte, Bill Norvell and Donna Splinter. Wil- lard J. Congreve, instructor in piano, acted as faculty adviser. Freshman rules required all first- year students to wear caps and arm- bands, remain seated in chapel until upperclassmen had left, attend all home football games, button” and pose” and comply with reasonable requests by upperclassmen. Infractions of these rules resulted in the carrying out of sentences appro- priate to the offenses. The freshman victory in the tug-of-war between halves of the Homecoming game in October marked the end of the rules as well as the services of the court. Page 57

Slue Heif Brother organization to Cardinal Key on the Midland campus is Blue Key which similarly recognizes those men excelling in traits of scholarship, leadership, service, loyalty and character. Directing the organization's activities this year were Bill Schnebel, president; Glenn Tabor, vice-president; and Weldon Meyer, secretary-treasurer. Dean Herman Gimme- stad again served as faculty adviser. A project of Blue Key put into practice this year for the first time was the counsel- ing of new Midland students and assisting them in planning and registering their courses. Working with Cardinal Key in the task of creating a Christmas atmosphere on the campus in December, Blue Key lent a Page 59 helping hand in decorating the chapel with a tree, greens, lights and candles. Interest in the character and ethics of their fellow students prompted Blue Key to take the lead in the formulation and presen- tation to the student body of an honor code governing classroom conduct during exami- nations. The formal dinner in May at which time new members were initiated concluded Blue Key's activities for the year. Other members of this service fraternity were Luvern Cunningham, Waldo Hansen, Don Hill, Paul Kuenning, Bill Lyders, Don Nelson, Arnold Nielsen, Harold Sherman, Calvin Schulz and Gene Vosseler.
