The Annual Staff of The Eastern Montana State Normal School Presents the DEDICATION We, the annual staff, dedicate this issue of the 1940 Rimrock to the school which has sponsored our education in the belief that we will be able to fulfill the responsibilities for which it has prepared us.

In spite of the hard times our attendance reached a new peak — the highest since 1 34. We have never made a bid tor students from Billings. This is a state institution and not a local one. But without solicitation an unusual number of fine graduates from the local high school have entered this institution and contributed their talents to the enrichment of its life. lsuall when the enrollment is great the number of drones and misfits is large also. I am glad to report that very few students have been dropped for lack of scholarship and that not a single case of discipline has passed my desk. In a material way we have made some gains. I'lu legislature made an adequate, if not generous, appropriation for our support. W e have sufficient funds to match those of the Works Progress Administration for the completion of the Inndsaping on the central part of the campus. But this year, as in other years, the most noticeable feature of our school is the y.eal of our students in preparing themselves to be teachers. Without having it talked into them from the assembly platform they have somehow worked out the conviction that teaching is one of the greatest jobs in the world. The world is restless. Great social changes are imminent. But children continue to be born. If they are rightly taught they should be able to face the future unafraid. I congratulate you upon your opportunity to do this teaching. 1.. b. McMullen. Marjorie A. Stevenson The Sargent School for Physical Education; The Mastei School tor Music; H. A..

Thirty-five DELTA PSI OMEGA Delta Psi Omega, a national honorary dramatic fraternity, strives to maintain a high standard in the dramatic activities of the school. ()ur Cast. Number 21, was among the first to be organized in the United States and the first in Montana. Delta Psi Omega and the Katoya Players have established a stage fund from which the equipment of our stage is purchased. Since the Cast was organized on July 1, l( 29. 101 students, by outstanding work in dramatic activities, have won membership in this honorary fraternity. Those admitted in 1939-1940 are: Vivian Hall. Kloise Sanake: Maxine Kuppel, |',ileen Parks. Marilyn Clark. William Sirrine, Kvelyn Kclnhpfer, Lois Crandall, Lloyd (iering, Clyde Davis, Martin locker. The officers are: (Jrand Director -......................Martii Dewey Cast Director - -......................Li.oyd Bering Business Manager -......................Lu.een Parks Usher - ...................Helen Lewis Thirty-six KATOYA PLAYERS The first organization in the schooi was formed during the fall quarter of l‘L?7 under the direction of Miss Martha Dewey. I he organization then chose as its name the Indian word Katova which means Players of the Pines. The purpose of the club is to promote understanding of the theater and help in furnishing the stage with necessary equipment. Plays sponsored and produced b Katova during the past year were two one-act plays, “ The Opening of a Door” and 1 he Professor Roars” in the fall quarter; and The Obstinate Pride” in the winter quarter. The spring quarter play, Our Town, was distinctive for its complete absence of scenery or properties.

ORCHESTRA This year found the F. M. S. . S. orchestra, under the direction of Mr. ('. V. Ritlgely, larger than ever before. The orchestra has become increasing!} important as a training course for future conductors and as a source of entertainment for the members and for the school. During the year, the students spent the first quarter in actual conducting from the Tri-tone Folios of Joseph Madd and the box Favorite Orchestra Folio. Handling the baton soon brings the complete realization of all that orchestra work involves to the musicians who hitherto have only followed the guidance of an expert conductor. The second and third quarters were spent in plus mg the more classical works. Beethoven, Schubert, I schaikowsky, Vargas, and Reynard are some of the composers whose works provided practice for the members. Coder the direction of Dr. McMullen, the combined orchestra and mixed chorus performed at the June Commencement exrciss, and a group of the violinists from the orchestra played the ‘Marche Triomplialc” by Levy as the processional. Thirty-eight GLEE CLUB During tin first year of the school Mr. Ridgely, head of the music department, organized tile girls' glee club, and throughout the year it has continued a popular favorite with girls who are interested in choral singing. rite club, which is at present composed of twentx eight members, has sung at several school functions and will bring its work to a close by appearing open the commencement program.

MIXED CHORUS With the increased enrollment of the fall quarter came a larger than usual number of boys interested in music, especially in vocal music. In order to provide them with some recreation in this field Dr. McMullen suggested that a mixed chorus he formed consisting of these hoys and along with them the girls who liked to sing anti were not in other musical organizations. Such a group met a few times; they sang several carols with flu- orchestra accompanying at the Christmas Commencement. The effect was so pleasing that this chorus was made a permanent organization and was scheduled as a regular class during the winter quarter. Forty-five members enrolled. Public appearances were limited to an evening performance at the Moose Lodge and a few songs at the final luncheon of the quarter. At the beginning of the spring quarter the total enrollment jumped to eighty. 1 hr group sang at the Midland Kmpirc Dinner on April 24. on the June Commencement program, and before several service clubs in (fillings. Forty SERVICE CLUB Service Club was organized, as its name implies, for the purpose of being of service whenever possible. During the pasr year the organization sponsored one guest dance, and all of the games played by the Yellow-jackets on the home floor. The members made yellow silk blouses for the yell leaders, the work being done at the meetings, with even the boys assisting—and some of them wield mean pinking scissors. Service Club had charge of the pop concession during the Class It divisional basketball tournament held in the Normal School gtmnasium. Receipts were turned over to the athletic fund.

They won their lone game from Carroll College of Helena by one point in one of their fifteen conference games. Coach Bjorgum tried, hut with little success, to find a winning combination. In the season’s survey, the ’Jackets connected for 538 points, w hile their opponents ran up 907 points. This gave the team an average of 27 points a game to the opposition’s 46 points. The first game of the season matched us with Spearfish (S. !).) Normal, who after a rough game went home with a 47 to 32 victor). The Dickinson boys next showed us they knew how to play hall when they trounced the Jackets 67 to 25. Coming hack from the New Year's vacation, the Jackets lost to Miles City Junior College 52 to 39, thus learning that too much vacation is just too much vacation. Poly, our city rival, forgot the old proverb Love thy neighbor when they proceeded to pin back the boys’ ears in a two game series 51 to 27 and 51 to 20 on the Poly floor. l he squad then journeyed to Miles City to lose in the last minutes by a score of 41 to 34. Maybe the ’Jackets need a rabbit's foot (or sumpin’). Montana State Normal College grabbed a victory in the last half, when they won 37 to 29. Jack Lewis showed his stuff by doing a neat job of guarding. In the next game Northern Montana College pulled away to defeat the boys 48 to 25. The Yellow jackets’ next trip took them to Butte, where they met the Miners and fell before them to the count of 43 to 28. They then moved to Dillon, but the State Normal quint proved to he too much for the hoys, also, walloping them two in a row, 58 to 20 and 58 to 29. At least they came home with a moral victory. Ask lx-e! Well, by this time February had rolled around and so did Carroll College, of Helena, to give the boys their first and only w in, when the ’Jackets edged the Saints 27 to 26. But the next night the Carroll boys’ accuracy at the free throw line proved to he their advantage and the Jackets dropped the game 48 to 43 to the Saints. The Yellow jackets' hoodoo still hung over them on their last trip, when they dropped a two-game scries to Northern Montana College 34 to 27 and 52 to 25 and at Helena lost 33 to 44 to the Saints. Montana Mines came along next to get a tighter grip on their second place standing by downing the ’Jackets 59 to 31 and 43 to 17 in two games. The season was brought to a close on February 20, when the Yellow-jackets met the Poly Crusaders, conference champions, in their annual benefit game, losing 27 to 48. Ah well, there’s another season coming. Smith of Dooley and Fiske of Ryegate grabbed off the scoring honors for the season with 96 and 83 points respectively. 'Fhe main line-up at the end of the season was an all-senior team composed of Lewis and Ostby, guards; Smith, center; and Fiske and Mason, forwards. Forty-seven GENERAL MEN'S ATHLETICS The Pastern Montana State Normal School with Hillings Polytechnic Institute, Montana State Normal College of Dillon. Montana School of Mines of Butte, Northern Montana College of Havre, and Carroll College of Helena make up the Montana Collegiate Conference. The reams compete on an intercollegiate basis in basketball, baseball, track and baseball. Pour of the schools also compete in football. Pastern Montana State Normal School athletes mat earn their “M in basketball, track and tennis. In case of a conference championship, a baseball letter may be earned. In the spring the annual spring sports carnival is held and the conference schools compete in baseball, track, and tennis. In the 19.$9 meet, the Jackets worked their way into the finals in baseball by soundly trouncing Carrol! 16 to 5 after drawing a first round bye. In the final game the K. M. S. N. S. team pulled a major surprise by breaking a 3 to 3 tie in the last half of the ninth inning and defeating the Poly 5 to 3. The baseballers who had a hand in winning the school’s first major championship were: Joe Stark. Rex Melton, (Jib Johnson, Jim Minnie. Jack Johnson, Hob Polston, Marion Ostby, Hill Swart , Hob Dcekert, and Jack Lewis. Stark and M'elton formed the battery and Polston and Minnie proved to be the leading hitters with averages of over .375. The school was presented with a beautiful trophy honoring the championship baseball team. In track, the local men garnered eight points to place fifth. Lettermen and their places were: Jerome Matross, second in the mile; Stark, second in the javelin; Jack Lewis, third in the broad jump; Cecil Nave, fourth in the 220 dash. The school’s tennis men were eliminated early in the tournament. Six-man football is played by the men of L. M.S. N. S. during the fall quarter.
