. LP, Xisl Wsi iL the tower northwest missouri state teachers college maryville, missouri Editor BETTY FUHRMAN Business Manager LORENE JENSEN Published that the College Days of Tomorrow May Not Proceed Unmindful of Yesterday dedication The Tower of 1946 is dedicated to President Emeritus Uel W. Lamkin in respect for the prestige that his name has lent the college the past twenty-five years, and to President J. W. Jones with the challenge that in future years he will enhance in value the name already won for Northwest Missouri State Teachers College. [4] contents personnel athletics organizations features [5] our college body, 1946 representation PRESIDENT EMERITUS Uel W. Lamkin The College can not and will not stand still. The needs are not the same as they were some twenty-five years ago. Northwest Missouri must be served differently and better. All youth in Northwest Missouri must be given a chance for formal, cultural and vocational education beyond the high school level. The whole man must be educated, as well as the mind of man. The College necessarily will invade new fields, it will undertake new things, it will live dangerously, in increasing its worth to the people of the district it serves. President Jones, and his Administration, may seem to be going far afield in directing development during the days ahead. But he, as President, has a somewhat better opportunity to judge ways by which the College can respond to youth ' s new demands than any other one person can have. He needs the sympathetic support of those now on the campus, and of those who have been, but who are now seeing the institution as former students and as citizens. I am sure he will have full support in the building of a better and more understanding Col- lege. UEL W. LAMKIN, President Emeritus. 18] PRESIDENT J. W. Jones The {unction of this college is and shall be to create upon this campus an environment in which the youth who come to us as college students will find here exemplified in the classroom, in the laboratory school, in the shops, in the social life, in the opportunities for work experiences, in contacts with community affairs in recreational activities, in choral, orchestral, dramatic activities, those conditions which when they have experienced them through four years they will emerge as educated citizens and capable teachers who will find the greatest service in helping build and maintain the peace that is now ours. J. W. JONES, President. [91 dean of faculty Dean M. C. Cunningham Dr. M. C. Cunningham, chairman of the Edu- cation Department and director of the Horace Mann Laboratory School, was elected to suc- ceed Dean Jones as Dean of the faculty. He is the fourth man to hold the office, Deans Jones, J. C. Miller, and George H. Colbert having pre- ceded him. board of regents The Board of Regents, appointed by the Governor of the state, work in co-operation with the president, to give supervision to college affairs. This year the men of the board had the responsibility of choosing a man for college president who was quali- fied to lead this institution through the present college reconversion. Mr. E. C.

We realize, that in future days there is certain to be some personal conflicts in the lives of students, and that only personal vis- ion on the part of students and directors alike can keep the difficulties of each successive day down to a minimum. administrative officers Top, leit to right: Mrs Ruby Brightwell, college nurse; Miss Lucile Brumbaugh, acting librarian; Miss Eureta Mullins, dietician.

Donahue, B. Steck. basketball season Because of the manpower shortage at the college at the beginning of the Fall Quarter, no attempt was made to organize a football squad. Coach Ryland Milner was still with a special service detachment of the army, which further stymied athletic plans at the col- lege. But despite the gloomy prospects during the fall, business picked up along athletic lines when Coaches Milner and Wilbur Stalcup returned at the outset of the Winter term. Veteran cagers Harold Hutcheson, Errol Myers, Vince and Norbert Meyer, Harold Gla- vin, and Paul Wilson returned to bolster basketball hopes of the Bearcats. Newcomers to the Bearcat cage team also gave Maryville fans added confidence as Stalcup ' s men won their opening game from Benson of Kansas City by a 46-37 score. Vince Meyer came along well as the season progressed to give the ' Cats added bal- ance where they needed it on rebounds and control of the ball. And so it was with Hutch- eson scoring ten points and Vince nine that the Maryville five rang up a victory over Fort Leavenworth team 44-30. In a return game with the Benson team, the Bearcats won another game, 40-29, in a rough and tumble contest. Coach Stalcup had difficulty in grooming his players in the finer point of the game since so many of them were rusty from 3 or 4 years absence from organized athletic activity. However, they came along well after downing Rolla 53-27 in their first conference game on January 10, and going to Cape Girardeau to nudge a strong Indian squad 47-46. After this promising start the Bearcats fell into a slump and lost to Springfield 34-41 and three days later, on January 21, Rockhurst turned them back, 36-34. [40] Left to right: S. Philp. W. Stirlen, S. French, M. L. Taul. cheerleaders Kirksville provided a break for the Maryville team as the Northeast Missouri team, off to a weak post war start, fell twice before the Bearcats: on January 25, 40-26; and on Janu- ary 29, 41-32. One of the most closely contested games of the season was played on February 1 when Tom Scott ' s Warrensburg Mules visited the Bearcat court and won in the last seconds, 37- 35. Allan Henningsen, lanky freshman center from Atlantic, Iowa, kept the Maryville hopes high by pouring in five fielders after Hutcheson went out of the game, due in injur- ies. Paul Georgia Wilson, Blaine Steck, Errol Myers, Gale Donahue, and veteran eager Andrews gradually regained their efficient playing styles and the Bearcats made the de- feat at the hands of Warrensburg their last of the season as they rolled over Rockhurst on February 8 by a 32-24 margin, trounced Cape Girardeau on February 15 by a 45-33 score, and avenged an early season loss with a 49-39 win. After the victory over Springfield on February 18, Stalcup found his team in a tie for the conference lead. Warrensburg, after setting the early season pace, suffered defeats at the hands erf Rolla and Cape Girardeau and was put in a precarious position as the Bear- cats journeyed to repay the Mule visit on February 19. Many Maryville fans traveled to see the game that was really the championship game of the M. I. A. A. Harold Hutcheson [41] scored 16 points and Vince Meyer rang up 12 markers to lead their teammates to a 43-33 win. All that remained for the Bearcats to do was to defeat Rolla in the closing game of the season, which they did, 40-33. It was an unusual season in several ways. Stalcup returned to his Alma Mater to pilot the cage team through another successful campaign, and then afterwards, promptly left for greater fields of athletic direction as he accepted a bid from Missouri University to coach the Tiger basketball sguad in the year to come. Another queer aspect of the season was the ' fact that no official M. I. A. A. champion was recognized because of a waiving of eligibility rules until September of 1946, and also because no official conference compet ition was arranged. It was through obvious misunderstanding of facts that Artie Eilers of St. Louis, selected to appoint officials for M. I. A. A. games, declared Harold Hutcheson to be ineligible, therefore causing Mary- ville to forfeit all games in which he participated. This ruling was not generally recog- nized, however, and certainly no glory was taken from the fighting Bearcats by this action. High point man on the Maryville squad was Hutcheson, who amassed 152 points in 12 games, and Vince Meyer, who tallied 113 points in 13 games. Al Henningsen captured third place honors with 64 points and Blaine Steck scored 62 points. These figures do not include the last game.

Our Student Senate represents the student body before the faculty and functions in har- mony with the Student Government Association in the regulation of student activities. The president and the vice-president of the Senate are chosen by the student body from the senior class. Four members chosen from each the junior and soph- omore classes, and two members chosen from the freshman class, com- plete the membership. As a representative body, the Senate must be adequately advised as to school affairs and must use its powers as best will promote the acceptance of conscientious responsibilities among members of the en- tire student body.

The Navy separated its asso- ciations with the fraternity when it left the campus in October. During the winter quarter the following veterans returned as civilians and are again active in the chapter: Lewis Cameron, Dean Hoshor, Bill Vest, Robert Taylor, Lawrence Weeda, and Donald Weeda. The spring quarter found still more veterans in our midst: Fred Davidson, Turner Tyson, A. Anderson, Harold Hall, J. Rush, J. Roberts, and C. Parks. With the departure of the Navy the fraternity had remaining in school three active mem- bers. This was the lowest ebb it reached during the uncertain conditions caused by the war. The fraternity is deeply indebted to those whose efforts kept its existence on the campus. With the fraternity again in full swing its members are look- ing forward to a busy and active organization this coming year. The fraternity has enjoyed many social functions this year, namely, the formal and informal dances, the smokers, and the Greek Letter formal. The spring formal in May was the last event on the Phi-Sig social calendar. 54 PAN-HELLENIC COUNCIL Lell to right: M Garrett, S Espey, H Mundell, D. Polk, L. Gorsuch, J. Stewart.

This year forty-two new members were initiated, amendments made to the Peppers ' Constitution, and new uniforms planned for next year. It would seem that from now on through the college game this group has in mind the continuance of those ideals set down by heritage. [57] INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS CLUB Standing, left to right: B.

Immediately thereafter he started work on the atomic bomb project at Iowa State. In the summer of 1942, Dr. Frank Spedding, project and re- search director at Iowa State College, Dr. Harley A. Wilhelm, associate project director in charge of metallurgy division, Dr. C. F. Gray, chemist in charge of the section on metal casting, and Dr. W. H. Keller, chemist in charge of the section on chem- ical metallurgy, invented the process used in the production of the metallic uranium for which the Army and Navy award- ed chemistry annex 1 and 2 the Army-Navy E. While the various manufacturers were getting ready to pro- duce uranium, by the Iowa State process, these men and their crews continued to produce metal as rapidly as possible so that futher atomic energy research could be continued during this period. The project at Ames produced the metal so rap- idly that the workers there were able to furnish about one- third of the metal used in the first experiments at Chicago, where the first selt-su stained atomic energy machine was con- structed. ' E ' Award to Go To Dr.CF. Gray lie tir.Huum : il cast- l„ f.i-t l.aiwl Pin Miss Lois Langland graduated from S. T.

[81 roll of honor northwest missouri state teachers college world war II From the temporary honor roll for service people began several years ago has grown the permanent honor roll which now has its place on the wall of the second corridor. As a cul- mination of a project began early last fall and financed by the Student Senate, the new honor roll pays tribute to 966 men and women in the armed services from the Northwest Missouri State Teachers College. Twenty-four gold stars indicate those men who gave their lives in this war. Approximately one hundred names are yet to be added to the board. [82] BGIH00BSH the dead of world war II in memoriam The college has lost these men from its halls and from its records of those men who have graduated and gone beyond its halls. Remembering that they have made the supreme sacrifice, in our hearts we honor them, and with eyes and minds toward the future, pray that they, and others who fought with them, may be the last to have to engage in war.
