The purpose is threefold: Mastery of written expression, encouragement of worth-while reading, and the fostering of a spirit of fellowship among those who specialize in English. The motto is: Sincerity, Truth, and Design. The official publication of Sigma Tau Delta is the “Rectangle.” Since the local chapter has been organized, there has been only one issue of the publication to which a Peruvian did not contribute. Each year Phi Alpha Chapter gives a medal to the freshman writing the best composition during the school term. This award is the official medal of the fraternity.

Palmer established in the College the Delta Chapter of Pi Omega Pi. Through Miss Palmer’s efforts the commercial department had been developed to a highly efficient degree. Those in the commercial department, who were of a superior standing in scholarship were chosen to be charter members of the fraternity. These charter members were: Merna Harris, Virginia Simmons, Elsie Mares, Mildred Mason, Vcrda Hauptman, Enez Wells, Anna Irwin, Nona Palmer. There are other chapters of Pi Omega Pi in some of the Colleges in Missouri, Nebraska, and Iowa. The requirements for membership are not only high scholarship, but work that is above average in the department, a good moral character, and a primary interest in teaching. This last requisite, a primary interest in teaching, is of special value. There are a great many in the department who are interested in commercial work only as a profession in itself. This being a teachers college it is therefore desirable that those who are interested in teaching organize and through organization, study commerce from the viewpoint of the teacher of commerce.

Vice-President Secretary- Treasurer ALPHA Mu Omega is an honorary mathematics fraternity which was established during the summer session of 1927 under the direction of Professor Arthur Lorn Hill. The fraternity has l een officially recognized as a branch of the National Council of Mathematics Teachers and as an institutional member of the Mathematical Association of America. The purpose of the fraternity is to develop and further interests in the study of mathematics, to investigate subjects of mathematical interest that are not presented in the classroom, and to inspire future teachers of mathematics. Meetings are held every two weeks and the programs are conducted by student members. Subjects of mathematical interest, such as the contract system in mathematics, the fourth dimension, scientific methods of teaching mathematics, and other topics that are of specific value to prospective mathematics teachers are discussed at the meetings. Meml ership is extended to all students majoring in mathematics who have a superior scholastic standing and who display an interest in this department. Pagt 4!

The objectives of Tri Beta are to stimulate scholarship, to spread biological information, and to advance science by new discoveries. It emphasizes, therefore, a threefold program, namely: Sound scholarship, dissemination of scientific knowledge, and promptness of biological research. Pi Chapter of Tri Beta was installed on the Peru campus February 13, 1928, by Dr. William Goldsmith, the National President of the Fraternity. The charter members were selected from the membership of Sigma Beta Rho, a local honorary biological fraternity. Membership is open to students of junior and senior ranking, who are taking their major work in the biology department, and who have a scholarship record superior to the average grade of the whole student body.

Peru chapter is the seventy-second chapter to be formed. The idea of Pi Gamma Mu originated at Southwestern College, Winfield, Kansas, in the early spring of 1924. Pi Gamma Mu is not an ordinary honor society. It has no national ritual and no secret features of any sort. Its name is simple and modest, merely the initials of the Greek words meaning Students of Social Science. The purpose of Pi Gamma Mu is the inculcation of the ideals of scholarship, scientific attitude, method, and social service in relation to all social problems. Members are elected from seniors and juniors having general average of A or B, who are majoring or minoring in History or other Social Sciences. Pi Gamma Mu publishes a quarterly journal called Social Science, which appeared first in 1925. Its special purpose is to vitalize and deepen scientific social interest in young educated people. Members of the local chapter this year have been investigating historical topics of local interest, gathering materials and shaping them into form suitable for publication.

The members are those who have been Scholarship Students in the high schools they have attended. These scholarships are of a value only in the Teachers Colleges of Nebraska. This Club has been organized to bring together in college those students who have been superior in scholastic attainment in high school. In this way those who have similar ideas and abilities are brought together. As this is essentially a Teachers College, methods used in the high schools from which the members come are discussed. The monthly meetings of the society are held for their social value to the members and for the encouragement they provide for further scholarship work in college. This year the meetings have been in charge of the various groups representing the departments in which they are majoring. This plan has given the members a broader view of the curricula of the school and helped them in their choice of electives. The first semester officers were: Helen Kaltenborn, President; Sue Wesner, Vice-President; Nina Burdette, Recording Secretary; Sylvia Davis, Corresponding Secretary; Ellen Zink, Treasurer. The second semester officers: George Cook, President; Wayne Reed, Vice-President; Jessie Joy, Treasurer, Lucille Coleman, News Reporter. Mrs. Norwood has been the sponsor of the Club this year.

Through all these years, the Philos have never ceased their activities, and have always been an organization of which the school has been proud. The purpose of the Philomathean Society is to develop the social attributes of its members. This development is not only in a literary way, although that is the basis for the organization, but it is in musical, dramatic, and executive ways as well. The executive ability is given vent in the office of program chairman, where ability to handle people, as well as initiative in preparing original programs is necessary.

This courtesy is extended to them by the Peru High School and is greatly appreciated by the Society. To those high school students who read this annual and are thereby encouraged to attend Peru, the method of admittance may be of interest. Members are taken in twice a year, at the beginning of the first and second semesters. Cards arc given to prospective members. These cards are then filled out, giving a brief account of the applicant and his ability. The applications arc considered by a membership committee and presented to the Club for acceptance or rejection. John Fisher Page 47 PHILOMATHEAN LITERARY SOCIETY First row—McGrkw, McSwan, Marg.

Russell, Sams, Seek, Skmrad, Schmidt THE Society meets twice a month. These meetings are always very interesting. In addition to the program, the members usually have a lively discussion alxnit some point of business, with Bill’s insistent and futile motions for adjournment spicing up the argument. Among the programs of this year there have been several of special interest. Taking the more serious point of view, one could mention the evening spent studying O. Henry’s life and works. A short biographical account of O. Henry was given by one of the members. Following this, a member of Philo who reads very well read one of his stories. Another program of interest was seen and heard through a television radio. There was an enlarged screen which first revealed the announcer at the microphone. The first number on the program was a selection by a male quartet. Following this was a piano solo. Matilda Green, official adviser to the lovelorn, appeared next. She read some very interesting letters, and gave exceedingly adequate answers. The announcer signed off and the screen grew dark. This was the fust time a television radio had been seen in Peru, and the experience was much appreciated. Another program of a lighter nature and one enthusiastically accepted by the society, was given by “Dick Williams and his orchestra.

The Society made their first contribution to the student loan fund in 1928 from a Liberty Loan bond purchased by the Society during the war. The plan is to contribute to this fund from time to time and to maintain it for the use of members of the Society. This fund, so recently started, has already helped several students. The payment on the bell system was made only last year, and made sure its speedy installment on the campus. A possession of which Philo is very proud is a quill pen. This pen was used in signing the grant for the land upon which the Peru College now stands- The Philomathean Society owes much of its success for the year to Professor A. L. Hill, who has helped the Club over many rough places and has given advice without making it mandatory that the Club accept as final his opinion. He has attended the meetings faithfully, and gives to the initiation programs that serious note which helps the members to realize that Philo has also a very serious purpose. « o I V, First row—Babb, Beebe, Beer, A.

At first, the Society met each Friday evening in one of the class rooms, but in 1885 it was given a room in the new Normal Hall. The Little Theatre is now used for Everett meetings. One of the outstanding features of the Society is its probat ionary system, which provides for tentative membership until the candidate has proven himself worthy of full membership. This has been a very effective method in selecting future Everetts. Dorothy Worley l itt 50 EVERETT LITERARY SOCIETY First row—Markison, Hkrvky, Hertbl, Kaltenborn, Khtlhr Second row—Kern hr, Kimsby.

A. is an association for the women interested in athletics and was VV organized in this school by Miss Ruby Damme in 1924. This organization has a large membership and is one of the most active on the campus. Its purposes are two, namely, to enlist the interest of as many college girls as possible in indoor and outdoor athletics, and to build healthy bodies. The value of the organization is found not only in the building of healthy bodies, but in the absorbing interest the girls take in the sports. o Last year the local G. A. A. applied for membership in the A. C. A. C. W., which is the national organization. They were accepted and arc now recognized all over the entire United States as the W. A. A. Any girl on the campus may become a member of W. A. A. by earning one hundred points in some sport. When a girl has earned five hundred points she is entitled to a letter. To receive a sweater, she must earn one thousand points. A white stripe for the sleeve is awarded for five hundred points earned after winning a sweater. Every active member must earn one hundred points a year to remain in the Club. One of the important annual events is the W. A. A. Prom. This evening of dancing is enjoyed by all the girls in school.

Graf, Bobcat machines are always successful. During his reign as Head Mentor of pigskin activities he has developed many championship teams. 1923 witnessed the beginning of Peru’s ascending to the top of the Nebraska sport world and a very large part of the credit is due to our “Maker of Champions,’’ Coach Graf. In 1923 Coach Graf came to Peru late in the practice season. Under ordinary circumstances this would have proved a severe handicap but if it was a handicap no one ever was aware of it because at this time the invincible Bobcats began to assert themselves and since 1924 when the Cats won their first football championship they have been the most feared aggre-Coacii Graf gation in Nebraska. Past S6 FOOTBALL Cheerleaders—Sugden, Sondhrbcgbr, MathbWS, Williams A brief resume of the 1929 season shows the fighting Bobcats victors in six of the nine games and only one reverse from the hands of a formidable and somewhat lucky group of Chadron Eagles. In two encounters neither Maryville, Wesleyan or Peru were able to score. Four years ago a tall dark-haired youth from Elmwood came down to Peru. During his high school days he had been inspired by the fascinating art of football playing. From the first evening of practice it became apparent that this young man represented the raw material that would shape itself into a great Bobcat. That is what Helmut has done. Amid very stiff competition by merit of real ability and interest, Brockman played in nearly every game. The second and third years saw him growing in ability and in 1929, as Captain of one of the finest football teams ever developed in Peru. Brock stood head and shoulders above other linemen in Nebraska. Being a careful student of the game and a good general are Brockman’s most valuable characteristics. He capitalized upon them with the net result of a great reputation throughout Nebraska. A good athlete, a critical general and a splendid fellow. The usual large number of men turned out to do their share in helping build a strong team, to help keep the Blue and White waving. Among this number were a large number of lettermen who were able to carry the fight ably forward. Capt. Brockman Page SS FOOTBALL After several weeks of gruelling practice on the necessary fundamentals, calisthenics, and scrimmage with the aspiring freshmen the “Cats” opened the football season with a decisive victory over the Irish from Si. Benedicts College, Atchison, Kansas. These fighting Irishmen came to Peru presenting almost the same lineup as that of the previous year. The outcome of the game was never in doubt. St. Benedict did not have a chance against the charging line and driving backs of Peru. Sautter, Toft and Zook were the main cogs in the Bobcat machine. The first half ended 19-0, but in the second half the Irish came back to show they still had some fight and had not given up. As a result Peru was held to a score of but 7 points in the second half. The game ended 25-0 in favor of Peru. 'I'hc next game will be remembered because of the weather which was very muddy. Graf and Company embarked on their excursion to Maryville, Missouri, early Friday morning, taking with them everything they thought would help combat the mud. After a long and tiresome trip, just enough players and suits arrived at four o’clock to start a game. In panel—Ackkrson, Brunsdon, Kisiikr, Groothcis, Hatciikr, Hbrtrl. 5—0 -3' 1—•......................................................................................................................................-eo.......................... FOOTBALL Despite the mud, the long trip and the on-coming darkness the game was started. The game was very even. Both teams were very evenly matched. The Missourians, inspired by a loyal student body, threatened to score at the end of the first half and again near the end of the game but was stopped by the Bobcat line. Claussen and Hofmann were the outstanding players for Peru. At the end of the muddy battle, which ended in the dark, both teams were satisfied with a scoreless tie. October 12, a beautiful fall day, witnessed another great gridiron classic. The Wesleyan Coyotes came to Peru thoroughly determined to down the Bobcat demon of the Nebraska Ozarks. However, the Coyote and Bobcat got the best of neither one, the game was evenly played as a game could be. The game showed a slight advantage to Peru, as but one first down was made through Peru’s line. After the haze of the battle had lifted itself, no counters had been made. Brockman, Zook and Sautter stood out as the shining lights for Peru. In panel—Hofmann, Hoy, Hurst, Ivkrs, Kkrnkr, I.ivbrmork j FOOTBALL Both Peru and Wesleyan thought they could beat the other so on the following Thursday a night game was scheduled for the Ballard held at Havelock. A special train was chartered and nearly everyone of the loyal Peru rooters accompanied the squad to Lincoln where the first night game was ever played by a Peru football team. Shaffner, a substitute halfback became a shining star for Peru in this night game. Kerner, Hurst and Zook were important cogs in the game, making many valuable contributions. Inspired by a desire to beat Wesleyan and backed by the voluminous cheering by the Peru rooters and the music of the Peru band, the Bobcats proved their superiority by a 7-0 win. The next pigskin encounter was with the Wayne Wildcats in the Homecoming game. The stadium was filled with students and alumni who had returned. At two-thirty, Captain Brockman led his fighting Bobcats onto the field. The erstwhile Wildcats were scrappy and game but were unable to solve the rushing onslaught of the boys in blue. The game from the spectators standpoint was a listless and one sided affair, the outcome being 39-0 for Peru with much of the game being played by second stringers. In panel—McSwan, Majors, Millhollin, Millbr, Pike, Place, Page 60 FOOTBALL Armistice day is on winters borderland. 1 he Bobcats journeyed to Chadron and midst softly falling snow carried Peru’s colors nobly forward, although they were beaten 9-2 by a powerful Eagle team. The game was quite evenly with Peru showing the best playing but Chadron getting the break. Records show that the Bobcats gained nearly twice as much ground as their opponents, but according to what counts, the score, Chadron was the better. In the early minutes of the game Cheney and Buckingham were able to put over a touchdown for the Eagles and the try for point was good. Then Peru begun clicking and Chadron was held to a safety for the other score, while the Bobcats, by way of Brockman, threw the Eagles for a safety. Brockman and Kerner in the line and ShafTner and Young in the backfield were outstanding. The team was given a loyal send off and, on their return, a loyal reception by the entire student body. The consensus of opinion in Central Nebraska was that the Cat” could not easily and successfully stalk the Antelope. At the end of the game Kearney had to be satisfied with a 45-0 defeat at the hands of Young and his team mates. In panel— Riggins. Rothkrt, Sams, Sauttkr, Shaffnkr, Shkstak. v FOOTBALL In panel—Toft, Tolly, Walkikshaw, Wicina, Young, Zook The last home game of the year was the long-pointed for game with the Omaha Kedbirds. Omaha had been planning for this game for a year, they wanted to get revenge for the decisive defeat administered by Peru the year before and thereby losing the N. I. A. A. title while Peru won it in this particular game. Peru had also been planning for this game for a year and by the time the Kedbirds arrived the Bobcats were ready for another victory. As a result of the machine-like working of the Bobcat machine the Omahans were completely overwhelmed and went home stinging with a 50-0 defeat. The shining lights on Peru was the passing of Hatcher to Hofmann, the line smashes by Hurst, and the return of punts by Young. However, the entire team must be given credit for the victory. This game ended the conference games for the year. Peru’s victory had not been in vain as Wayne had defeated Chadron, the Conference leaders, on the same day, thereby putting Peru and Chadron in a two-way tie for championship of the conference with three wins and one loss for each. For the final game of the season the Bobcats traveled to Tarkio for the Turkey Day game. The game was played on a snow-covered and damp gridiron. Both teams were evenly matched, neither of the teams being able to do much with the other. Peru started out with a bang but were soon halted and held on even terms by the Missourians. The Bobcats were powerful on the offense in midfield while Tarkio’s defense could not be pierced near its goal line. The only score of the game was a touchdown by ShalTner, resulting from a fifteen-yard end run. Peru had conquered Tarkio by a count of 6-0. This game ended a successful season for the Bobcats and was the end of the football playing careers of Captain Brockman, Finer Toft, Rollie Riggins, Frank Kerner, Charles Place, Paul Hoy, Duane Sams, Wilbur Young, Robert Majors.

The “P Club was organized in 1920 by Coach Speer. The membership consists of those men who have won letters in football, basket ball, or track. The fraternity this year sponsored the Southeastern track meet on April 19, and the M. I. N. K. track meet on May 3. These meets are held to bring to Peru the outstanding athletes of the high schools of this part of Nebraska. The important social event of the year of the Phi Lambda Alpha was the party given at the Auburn Country Club. This was the initiation of the new fraternity and also served as a send-off for Coach Lorbeer who was leaving for Sarasota, Florida, where the training camp for the Indianapolis Ball Club is located. The aim of the Phi Lambda Alpha is to promote Peru spirit and they have done well in their efforts towards the realization of this aim. The interest taken by the high school boys who come to participate in the athletic contests held here at Peru is in part due to the spirit shown by the members of the Phi Lambda Alpha. The officers this year were: Howard Zook, President; Earl Hurst, Vice-President; Frank Kerner, Secretary and Treasurer.

Treasurer Program Chairman THE College Girls’ Club presents to this campus an organization which stands for unity of action, co-operation for the betterment of social and moral standards, and a spirit of comradeship between all girls. This Club was organized in 1919 by Miss Mattie Cook Ellis, the Dean of Women. She realized the need for such an organization and did much toward establishing the project on a sound basis. It has been very active since its origin. The philanthropic work of this Club is accomplished by means of its loan fund, which yearly assists many girls to complete their education. The number helped has increased each year. GIRLS’ CLUB EACH year the Girls’ Club sponsors a costume party which this year was in i the form of a very funny “Funny Paper Ball.” All the comic characters came to the ball, from Ella Cinders to Spark Plug. Each group of girls was asked to prepare a stunt for the ball and a prize was offered for the best act given. As a result, four clever acts were presented and from them the judges chose “Elmer Tuggle’s Dream” as the funniest. The other acts were “Perry Winkles Gang,” “Maggie,” and Spark Plug.” Girls’ Club meets twice each month. This year an interesting group of programs consisted of a series of lively skits on “Etiquette.” One of these was in the form of a style show. Suggestions in answer to the bothersome question. “What shall I wear?” were given, beginning with a cheery “Good morning” and continuing through the day to the hast “Good night.” Another of the programs on etiquette showed us “The Rights and Wrongs of Dating. The eventful meeting of Girls’ Club is always the birthday party which is presented at convocation with the Men’s Club as guests of honor. The program for this meeting was presented by the members of the group presenting the prize-winning stunt at the “Funny Paper Ball.” Pagt OS FRESHMAN CLUBS THE Freshman Clubs organized last year have been happily growing aided by the inspiration and help of upper classmen and members of the faculty.

But worthiness is not its only attribute, for a good time had by all” aptly describes every meeting. The Y. M. C. A. this year carried out a project that has never before been used at Peru. This was the organization of a Gospel team. This group prepared a religious program consisting of vocal and instrumental music and the Biblical drama, Courage.” They presented this program as a special service in the churches at Peru and elsewhere. From this beginning, the work of the Gospel Team is expected to grow and become an important part of the Y. M. C. A. activities. One of the major achievements of the Association was the Father and Son banquet held in the early fall. This is an annual event and is attended by real fathers with their sons and by many of the college men who bring younger boys from the Training School. The purpose of the Y. M. C. A. has been stated many times, but it expresses in a few words the basic meaning of the organization and can well bear repetition: The purpose of Young Men’s Christian Association is to lead men to faith in God; to unify the student body in its purpose in action; and to promote growth in character and fellowship among men.” The officers for the past year have been: Raymond Trenholm, president; Elmer Hertel, vice-president; Dean Grass, treasurer; John Bath, secretary; and Edwin Booth, program chairman.

Weare HOME ECONOMICS FRATERNITY THE Home Economics Department has always been unified because the type of work has naturally brought them close together. It logically followed that the Department should organize. The creation of this organization took place in 1920 under the direction of Miss Kathryn Towne, and has been growing under the leadership of Miss Edna Weare and Miss Mabel Cook during the year 1929-1930. This Club has been corresponding with organizations of similar nature in other colleges. Through this work they have gathered reliable and interesting material which has helped them in their own activities. Another objective of the Club has been to become familiar with the leaders in the field of Home Economics. Home Economics is truly a science and it is of value to those planning to teach the subject to know of the progress that has been made in this line of work and of those who have been leaders in that progress. The officers for the past year have been: Nel!a Baird, president; Carolyn Henningsen, vice-president; Emily Peterson, secretary; Lela McCrory, treasurer.. Patr 60 -'Tv = ■ YOUNG WOMEN’S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION Graves, Kaltrkborx, Elliott, Prokks, McGrkw, Wilson ON OCTOBER 19, 1887, a permanent charter was given to the newly organized Y. Y: C. A. Each year had added to the strength of the organization, making it truly valuable in the lives of Peru students. The purpose of the Y. Y. C. A. is two-fold: To unite in the desire to realize full and creative life through a growing knowledge of God; and to have a part in making this life possible for all people. To accomplish their ideals, the girls seek to understand Jesus and to follow Him. The Student Friendship Fund has been aided by the Y. Y. C. A. for the past four years and every Christmas, baskets for the poor are prepared by this organization. The Y. Y. C. A. also sponsored jointly with the Y. M. C. A. an institute February 16 and 17. Three international speakers were brought to our campus by that institute. The speakers were Mrs. Kim of Korea, Dr. Ise of University of Kansas and Miss Read of England. On Sunday morning Mrs. Kim spoke at a union service of the churches. That afternoon there was a program at Eliza Morgan Hall, and on Sunday evening a union meeting was held at the College Auditorium. Monday the speakers talked in several of the classes and Monday night the final meeting was held, Miss Read of England being the speaker. She compared for us English and American college life. YOUNG WOMEN’S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION Kimshy, Higgins, Brady, Gocklhy, Cook MRS. KIM made an exceptional appeal to the students. Her unique way of saying things especially pleased her listeners. She has a deep interest in the young people of America and made many ot the discontented realize that, after all, there were many things to appreciate in our free American life. Each year the organization sends a delegate to Estes Park. Last summer, Marguerite Graves, the President, and Ellen Wilson were delegates. They brought back much inspiration, and suggestions that were used advantageously in this year’s work. The Y. M. C. A. has had an unusually large attendance this year, because many of the programs were not only attractive but worth coming out to. One joint program sponsored by the Y. M. and Y. W. that brought out “record-breaking crowds” was made up of speeches on “Ideals.” Three Y. W. girls were guests of the Y. M. and spoke on “The Ideal Man” as a sweetheart, companion, and father. Likewise at Y. W. three Y. M. men spoke on “The Ideal Girl as a sweetheart, companion, and mother. As a climax to the evening, the speakers answered questions “asked from the sincere depths” of the listeners’ souls. Much was learned. Among the lively and excellent organizations on Peru campus the Y. W. C. A. has its place, and justly so, as one of the members said, When 1 am sitting at my study table, weighted down by the worry of my work, I feel as if attending Y. W. is merely a duty. But after I’ve gone, my troubles are lost to the world.” Page 71 VOLLEY BALL SoXDKRKGGKR, COWAN, RoWLISON, DkBRSON, DaMMAST, SoPIIHR, COLBMAN� CfSTARD, NkI-SOX Brqady, Davidson SWIMMING First row—Rowlison, Naviaux, Matiikws, Sondrrbggbr, Einung Second row—Skklton, Parks.

At no other time in the world’s history have things been so promising for young people. You are living in an era of rapid change. Old landmarks are disappearing, old ways of doing things are being swept away, and new systems of thought and new activities are being introduced. In this changing world you need to keep enough of the old and tried to steady yourself in the venture into new fields. If the training received at Peru will enable you to do this, then the time here has been well spent. Sincerely yours, VV. R.

Membership is open to all Catholic students. The purpose of the organization is to promote social, as well as religious fellowship among members. Meetings are held bimonthly, with additional meetings during the Lenten season. One social meeting is held each semester. C. C. A. will affiliate with the Intermountain Province of the National Council of Newman Clubs, the federation of Catholic students in the non-Catholic higher institutions, colleges, and normal schools. The first Newman Club was founded at the University of Pennsylvania in October, 1893. The federation exists in over sixty universities and colleges. There were organized clubs in nearly thirty others last year and the federation is reaching unorganized students in over two hundred other institutions. It is found in forty-two cities, and in fifteen states and the Dominion of Canada. The Newman News, a monthly publication, and the Newman Quarterly keep Peru students informed of the activities of other clubs. Page ss i PatrS9 3 � ill c in o r i a m � l Dorothy M.

Letter-men who turned out were Captain Booth, Brockman, Young, and Galloway at forwards, Korber and Hurst at guards. • In addition, Walkinshaw at forward and Wicina at guard. Of the promising freshmen who turned out were Pederson of Omaha, Hatcher of Missouri Valley, Iowa, Millhollin of Bridgeport, and Pric-fert of Reynolds. Lost to this year’s team were three all-state players, Joe Krejci, center; Russell Waslev and “Swede” Hertz, guards. After about three weeks practice in drill of fundamentals and scrimmage, Coach Earnest Lorbeer had a very formidable team to start the year’s basket ball schedule with. Starting the season the team took a “barnstorming” tour into Kansas, playing Sterling College at Sterling, Kansas, two games with the quintet of Kansas State Teachers College. Hays, Kansas, and the last game with the Portis Dynamos at Osborne, Kansas. The Bobcats did not get off to a successful start, losing three games and winning one, but it served to Coacii Lokbkkr get the team in the proper playing attitude. Pat, 102 p%fr=3 3r BASKET BALL Bobcats in action The first home game and the first game of the regular schedule was played with the Syracuse Legionaires who were handed a nice defeat by a final score of 45-19, the half having ended 25-6. The Bobcats were showing very good playing in this game, everyone working at top notch. Railsback and Hatcher tied with Pickering of Syracuse for scoring honors, Sautter and Korber were showing good form on the defense and Captain Booth, Wicina, and Hurst were also going good. Syracuse relied entirely on long shots for making points but the distance was too great to make enough counters. Captain Edwin Booth completed his basket ball career this year. He has played with the Bobcats hn| pif each of the three years he has been in attendance at K Peru. He played regular forward on the team this V. past year. The next game saw the opposite of the JMhf first, resulting in a decisive defeat for the Bobcats dealt out by the independent Northboro Athletic jjU Club of Northboro, Iowa, led by “The Grand Old ' Man of Northboro,” one A. Knuckles. The score at the half found the Independents leading by a 21-4 score, having run up twenty-one points before Peru could account for themselves. jk' Pagt 10) Galloway Hatciibr Brockman Korukr Milliiollin Hurst Two freshmen, Hatcher and Milhollin, and a junior, Hurst, carried the brunt of the battle for Peru. The end of the game found the Bobcats at the small end of a 40-12 count. We find the Bobcats next invading the nest of the Ravens at St. Benedicts College, Atchison, Kansas, and found the bird adverse to the “Cats.” The game was an evenly fought game, but the Ravens hung to a slight lead during the first half and were leading 6-3 at the end of the first period. In the second half the Bobcats'came back strong blit the final gun found the score tied. In the extra period Peru’s free throw was trumped with a field goal by St. Benedict, who won out by an 18-17 count. For the next game the Peru Bobcats entertained the Wayne Wildcats on the home floor. Swartz and Andrews left for home with a 34-28 victory over Peru. The first half was a duel between centers with the “big boy” Swartz having the advantage only in points. The Wildcats led throughout the game with the exception of a few minutes in the second half. Brockman and Hatcher were outstanding for Peru. Priefert, guard, played exceptionally well in his first appearance for the Blue and White. The Bobcats journeyed to Omaha and played the Redbirds in the Benson gymnasium. The Redbirds came close to winning the game by stalling. They gained possession of the ball before any points were made and stalled for four minutes. Frye, guard, holding the ball most of the time. Peru soon got hold of the ball and made the count 6-4 against Omaha at the half, and winning the game 30-20. BASKET BALL Pedersen Prieff.rt WlCINA Sautter Young Walkinsiiaw On the next trip Peru met Norfolk Junior College and the Wayne Wildcats. The Norfolk team was a far superior team as compared with their team the previous year, but the Bobcats finally subdued the Norfolk team to the tune of 38-28. The Bobcats were definitely eliminated from a chance at the 1930 State College Basket Ball Championship when they dropped a 40-30 decision to the Wayne Wildcats on the Wayne floor. Peru played good basket ball but was unable to stop Swartz, who gathered fourteen points to lead the evening’s scoring. In the last three games the Bobcats came into their own by taking all three games from two conference teams, Omaha and Chadron. In the Omaha game Peru showed a decided change for the better in basket ball form, playing with the precision and skill which has been characteristic of Peru teams in the past. Peru led throughout the game but the Redbirds kept well within striking distance and managed to tie the score just as the game ended. Peru was not to be defeated, however, and it was during the overtime period that the Bobcats ran up the big point margin of 38-28 to win the game. The results of the two Chadron games came as a surprise, as the Eagles, on basis of comparative scores, had a higher rating for these games. The Bobcats, however, were in the right playing mood and they made the Eagle’s feathers fly. In the first game the entire Peru team just couldn't be stopped and the final gun found the Bobcats the possessors of a victory with the one-sided score of 36-11. The final game found the Eagles a great deal harder to subdue, but the “Cats” finally clawed out a 24-21 decision.

Early in the fall a constitutional committee was appointed. This committee considered the necessary changes and rewrote parts of the constitution. The revised constitution was considered by the club, voted upon, and accepted. Among the changes, the point system was the most outstanding. This system was so changed that a greater number of points is given for the amount of work done, making it simpler for the probationary members to become full-fledged. An amendment of some importance states that the head of the English Department of the college automatically becomes an honorary member of the Dramatic Club.

The Peru Normalite, the newspaper of the Peru Normal, was succeeded in 1921 by The Pedagogian when the institution became a state teachers college. Since that time it has progressed rapidly and has become one of the best weekly college newspapers in the state. Paul Wilcox of Nebraska City was the first editor of The Pedagogian. o The editorship during the first quarter of this year was in charge of William Okrent. During the last three quarters Marie Parker was editor. The business management was under the direction of Donald J. Tyler and Willard Fowler. Professor Frank H. Heck was the faculty adviser for this school year. The feature newspaper of the year was the holiday edition of eight pages. Advertisements which formed the letters P. S. T. C. were arranged on the four inside pages. This issue of the paper was dedicated to Dr. E. R. Reynolds of Auburn who has donated his services to Peru athletics for ten years. During the high school basket ball tournament, the staff published a special edition in colors. MEN’S CLUB First row—Booth, Brockman, Delzkll (Siwnsor), Hbrtel Second row—Hofmann, Hurst, Rotiikrt THE Men’s Club is an organization including all the men in College. The Club’s purpose is to build up pep and carry on the “Spirit of Old Peru.’’ Meetings are held every other Monday in the Little Theater. These meetings are conducted by the regular club procedure and the programs are planned by the members of the Club. One of the outstanding programs of the year was presented by Dr. W. E. Vaughn. This program made a lasting impression on the men. Many comments and laughs were heard days after the program had passed. The second semester officers were: Elmer Hertel, President; Helmut Brockman, Vice-President; Edwin Booth, Secretary; Earl Hurst, Treasurer. S «K The Men’s Club is an organization that not only talks, but acts. This fact is evidenced by the organized aid given during the M. I. N. K. Music and Dramatic Contest held in February. Members of the Club solicited rooms for the contestants who planned to stay over; they officiated at the door and in general helped the participants of the contest to better know Peru. The same thing was done during the Regional Basket Ball Tournament by the Men’s Club. The first semester officers were: Ernest Rothcrt, President; Helmut Brockman, Vice-President; Henry Hofmann, Secretary; Earl Hurst, Treasurer. Patt in MUSIC AT PERU j CONFUCIUS said: “When Music and Courtesy are better understood and appreciated, there will be no war.” Music speaks in a language common to all, and is not limited to what we call language. It contains the actual germ or fundamental of the universe; that rhythm, without which nothing material can exist. So we have the right to call music, not a mere imitative art, but a creative art—infinite in its scope, and both human and Divine in its origin. A sculptor can form a Venus de Milo that is so like the original that only a master can discern. A painter can make a copy of an actual, or touch up an unreal canvas, to look like a Gainsborough. For the past years talented composers have been competing for huge prizes offered for the completion of Schubert’s famous “Unfinished Symphony.” None have succeeded, not even approximated the master’s work. Why? Music is an expression of the soul, the motivation of an idea, some thing that comes from away down deep in one’s inner being. It can never come from without; it must be experienced from within. Music is a living, vital factor on Peru’s campus. The study of applied music is given special attention, as to standard of faculty, and performance of students. The first requisite of an educated person is to excel in some one thing. There is a demand for this kind of teacher, rather than the one who teaches a little of all branches. Subject matter and performance are stressed by the professors, who are themselves excellent artists, with much experience in the concert and opera fields. Every one at Peru has the opportunity to engage in some musical activity. The Chorus, Girls' Glee Club, Men’s Glee Club, the Orchestra, the Band, are open to all—without examination. It is remarkable with what degree of finesse and artistry these organizations perform, when it is recalled that many schools admit only the most talented to such groups. Yes, Music does live at Peru; it does more than live, it works. It helps keep the campus a pleasant place to spend the week-end, with its Sunday afternoon musicalcs at the lovely Eliza Morgan Parlors. There arc courses in Music Appreciation so that every one may be more interested in, and more appreciative of the various activities. Music is more than a diversion for the select few; it is a necessity for all, that they may be more fully, and more richly endowed with those attributes essential to all well-rounded and worth-while lives. lyO£t 112 Spring on the Campus—The Dutch Oven •m Sillygisms—A dose and rare study of Rice and Pittinger—A plenteous supply of officials to see that things ran right Esther Walkinshaw May Queen Madonna Brady Representative mmm Paulink Lyle Representative Ernest Rothert Representative Marvin Williams Representative Beer fill?

If we have left with you something of interest concerning the classroom, the campus or personal friends, something that calls back to your memory the 1929-1930 school year at Peru, then we feel that our labors and efforts have not been in vain and that our time has been well spent. Page 121 i i Tear Larson Clayburn FRESHMAN SPONSOR—GRACE TEAR The Freshman class is the large class this year that it usually is, and under the supervision and direction of Miss Tear, also Freshman sponsor last year, has had the same Freshman clubs as was highly successful last year. I he clubs are those most desired by the Freshmen and takes care of the different likings of the students. SOPHOMORE SPONSOR—A. V. LARSON Mr. Larson is the Sophomore sponsor again this year, he also sponsored the last year’s Sophomore class. This year’s Sophomore class gave up their control in the Peruvian so that the Senior class might have the initiative alone and select staff members from all four classes. Mr. Larson has been a loy'al and worthy sponsor. JUNIOR SPONSOR—A. B. CLAYBURN The last year’s sponsor having not been on the campus this year, Mr. Clayburn consented to sponsor the Junior class this y'car. Mr. Clayburn has worked very faithfully for the class and with the class, and is a well liked sponsor. The class worked very hard to put over the highly successful Junior-Senior Banquet this year. SENIOR SPONSOR—W. R. CARTER Mr. Carter was the sponsor for the Senior class last year and was chosen to be the sponsor for the Class of 1930. The Senior class is very thankful that it has had the very capable sponsor, Mr. Carter. Under his direction the largest and best Homecoming was held last fall. He was the adviser for the Peruvian this year. Pate 124 DEBATE First row—Chatelain, Clineburg, Crook, Hkck, Micks Second row—Ivkns, Magkl, Knight, Moothart AT THE beginning of the debate season Professors Chatelain and Heck found but two experienced debaters in the squad. However, the rest proved to very capable and willing to learn under the expert guidance of the coaches. The negative team, Clineburg, Knight, and Ivcns, opened the season February 8, at Dana College, Blair, Nebraska. The question was: Resolved: The nations should adopt a plan of complete disarmament, except such forces as are needed for police protection.” It was a nondecision debate, but the Peru debaters had begun the season in a very creditable manner. Peru again defended the negative against the affirmative team from Tarkio College on the Peru Campus. The decision was in favor of Peru. The trip to Cotner is remembered for more than one reason. Of course, the team consisting of Knight, Clineburg, and Magel, debated exceedingly well, but this may have been partially due to the dinner served them at Elmwood at the home of one of the members of the squad. The season closed with a dual debate with Doane College. Not wishing to be too selfish, Peru took only one of the decisions. The affirmative team, Clineburg, Ivens, and Crook, debated at Peru. The girls’ negative team, Knight, Magel, and Hicks, journeyed to Crete. The debating done during the entire season brought credit to Peru and upheld the brave traditions of the pale blue and the white.” Pat I2f ORCHESTRA First row—Trabert, I yens, Clements, Sucdkn, Williams, Reed, Horton, Metcalf, Dunlap, Trkniiolm Second row—Irvin, Semrad, Kingsolver, Trover, Trkniiolm, Tyson, Dunning BAND First row—Trabert, Bknford, Decker (Substitute) Second row— Hughes, Bokllstorff, Stkck.

I. N. K. meet held by the College, or a division of the state tournament series. This year the College sponsored the State Regional Tournament for Southeast Nebraska. All high schools with less than one hundred pupils enrolled in high school met in tournaments. The winners of these tournaments then met in the regional tournaments, high schools with an enrollment of over one hundred in high school. The winners and runners-up from these tournaments were entitled to go to the final state tournament held at Lincoln. The Peru lettermen were acting managers of the meet, selling and collecting tickets, floor managing, care of the showers, keeping score, and the most important, acting as “big brothers’' to the visiting high school students. By this service thus rendered, Peru is raised in the estimation of the high school students, and helps to make our college a larger and better college. H. S. REGIONAL BASKET BALL TOURNAMENT The tournament was attended by a large crowd at each session, and especially the night of the finals when the two rivals, Peru and Auburn, met to decide the tournament winners. Auburn came out victorious with a 19-9 score. Falls City defeated Papillion 1G-9 in the final game of the consolation series. The entire tournament games proved to be an upset. The lower rated teams were huge obstacles in the paths of the higher rated teams.

'I his organization is honorary and is composed of the girls of the Home Economics Department who have excelled in scholarship. They may have earned either a major or minor in the department. The installation of the sorority was accompanied by the several social functions. The Alpha Chapter of the organization is at Maryville, Missouri. The head of the department there, Miss Hcttie Anthony, is the National President of the Sorority. On Friday, March 14, the Maryville Chapter came to Peru to install the Nu Chapter in this college. Friday evening the pledging service was held. On Saturday morning Kappa Omicron Phi were guests of Kappa Delta Pi. This Fraternity took the Kappa Omicron Phi Sorority and their guests from Maryville on an automobile trip through the scenic spots of Peru and Brownville. After a luncheon at noon, a reception was held in the parlor of Eliza Morgan Hall. Members of the other fraternities and the faculty were invited. That evening at a dinner attended only by members of the Sorority the officers were installed. PagfIiO I'ate 131 r Armstrong.

The whole track has been recindered. The track at the first was not as fast as it could be for this reason. However, the track aspirants seemed to have looked upon this difficulty with disdain for they donned their suits and took their daily work out on the cindered highway. It is this keen spirit of making the best of a bad situation that has brought such marked success to Peru trackmen. This year’s track squad, coached by Lon R. Graf and assisted by Ralph Williams, is composed of a group of veterans such as Kerner, Mumper, Zook, Sams, Briggs, SchafTner, Galloway, Young, Sautter and Walkinshaw. Much can be said for Graf as a track coach. Every year he turns out two or three outstanding track stars who are recognized throughout Nebraska as outstanding stars and very dangerous in track meets. This year’s captain is Frank Kerner, a Senior and a veteran of four years’ competition. He is outstanding in the javelin event and the hurdles, showing very much ability in these events. The outstanding freshmen which turned out were Whyman in the distance events, Bruce in the quarter-mile, Millhollin in the dashes and Sugden in the high jump. The first track meet of the year for our cinder was the Hastings Relays on April 12. A veteran half-mile relay team composed of Mumper, Zook, Sams, and Williams, and Kerner in the individual events made the trip to represent the Blue and White. On Friday, April 18, an interclass meet will be held in the Peru stadium. This meet is entered into with as much interest as if the participants were competing for the state title. Saturday of the next week the annual Southeastern Nebraska track and field meet will be held here. Eight teams will take part in this meet and just to speculate a little it would be logical to say that competition will be very keen. On May 2 the Bobcats will launch their attack on foreign shores, going to Maryville, Missouri, for a dual meet. Peru has maintained some very splendid relations with their fellow teacheis beyond the “great muddy” and whenever a Maryville team comes to Peru the air is charged with expectancy because there never is any certainty as to how the game will terminate until the final whistle has been sounded. This Missouri affair certainly will be interesting for the trackmen and in all probability they will have something to tell about when they get home. Page 136 4 4 i 0 i b TRACK On May 9 the Bobcat cinder experts will journey to Lincoln where they meet the strong followers of Wesley. As in the case of Maryville, Wesleyan always gives their opponents no small amount of competition and when a Bobcat team enters the field against them, they seem to rise above themselves. It was a Wesleyan basket ball team that brought to an end the long string of victories by Peru which gives Peru the distinction of a world record in consecutive basket ball games won. In all probability this meet with Wesleyan will l e a fast one and doubtless will go down in history in the future. The day following the Maryville meet the annual M. I. N. K. high school track meet will be held in the Peru stadium. This affair should bring together some of the most promising high school athletes in the neighborhood of Peru. This meet should be very interesting and the students of Old Peru have a duty to perform. If these young men from neighboring schools and neighboring states are well treated while here, they will unconsciously like the way “things’ seem around “Old Peru”. This atmosphere of welcome can be created by the trackmen, especially, and the student body generally, and it is the duty of everyone at Peru to do his bit in winning these lads who will carry on the traditions in athletics that have been so nobly founded and preserved during the past. Plans are under way for an open meet to be held at Hastings. The plan of this meet is to have all the colleges in Nebraska entered regardless of the conference to which they belong. There are about twelve colleges in Nebraska who would l)e eligible to enter into this proposed meet and it should be a very interesting experiment. Coach Graf expressed his approval of this type of meet and said that Peru would enter if such a meet was arranged. In all probability the Bobcats will show their stuff and incidentally their heels in more than one event if this state-wide meet could 1 e arranged. Schaffner, the “unexpected, always has a surprise for his spectatois. Right when the going seems a bit tough, he rises nobly above the situation with the net result of a victory for the Pale Blue and White. With such prospects the Boys of the Bobcat squad ought to be of necessity forced to buy extra heavy watch chains because they will be burdened with gold and silver medals to the extent that only a heavy chain will be of sufficient strength. This is only a prediction but predictions are easy when a Bobcat athletic team is under consideration. CxS? PERU SCHOLASTIC HONORS SCHOLASTIC honors are announced each year at the May Commencement and at the close of each term of the summer school.

Clements THE T. J. Majors Training School, pictured above is excelled by no other training school building in the middle west, nor is its equipment excelled. Each year there are approximately three hundred fifty pupils enrolled in the training school from the kindergarten through the twelfth grade. The 6 3-3 type of organization is used. The purpose of the school, as is indicated by its name, is to provide a means by which the college students may observe expert teaching and in which they may do their practice teaching, under proper supervision, as part of their college training for the teaching profession. In so far as possible the student teachers have classroom situations which are typical of the situations which they will meet later. There are about two hundred college students each year who do practice teaching in this training school. The classroom and laboratory equipment is of the best kind. Educational programs over the radio are received by the school radio. A Bausch and Lomb Balopticon and an Eastman Kodoscopc motion picture camera and projector are used for visual aids in instruction and vitalization of the courses. The movie is also used to keep records of the school in pictures. The old practice football field is of regulation size now, the old one having been enlarged. r v« SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL High School Operetta Patricia From the standpoint of the pupil, the quality of the teaching of the student teacher under careful supervision compares favorably with average teaching. Graduates of the Training School have made a very fair showing in college. The Training School is well represented in every list of college honor students. Student teachers arc well liked by the pupils; among the younger pupils one hears many expressions of attachment for this or that student teacher, while in high school, a wholesome spirit of co-operation exists between the pupils, student teachers and supervisors. The Training School as a means of developing skill on part of the young teacher is growing in favor with educators. It is increasingly recognized as being essential in the training of teachers. Because of this recognition, newer and more stringent standards for training schools have been adopted by accrediting agencies. Our school measured up to these newer standards. THE Training School is the place in which the novice teacher gets the first experience in handling a class. It is here that worries over lesson-plans, discipline, and hard-boiled supervisors begin. Also, here it is, where many first find the real joy and satisfaction which come through leading and guiding children in the learning processes, through being instrumental in their development. Although some student teachers find teaching irksome, many enjoy it. Practically every student teacher is vitally interested in the success of his group. It is quite common for one finishing his own teaching to concern himself about his successor and express satisfaction or regret according to the desirability of the successor. TB8 KK5 L. B.

Mary Greenwade FRESHMAN YEAR AS FRESHMEN, the Class of 1930 was distinctive; we were the first ninth grade to be included in the junior high school. We appreciated this, as it enabled us to spend another year with our teachers, Miss Brandt and Mrs. Price. We were a gay, green group, numbering thirty-five, and with “Jack” Vander-ford President, spent a highly successful year, partaking in orchestra, basket ball, High School Night, football, parties and journalism.

K. contests, football, basket ball and track played an important part in our lives during these two years. The outstanding event in our Junior year was the Junior-Senior banquet. Both Helen Gilbert, Sophomore President, and Mac Dunning, Junior President, proved to be efficient leaders for our class. Thus we stumbled thru Caesar and Solid Geometry. Pag i si V Setzer, C.

We comprised a large part of the football and basket ball teams, debate squad, orchestra, and glee clubs. The Juniors entertained us with an exceedingly interesting party. However, the high light of this highly sensational year was our class plav, “Second Childhood.” With Stephen Gaines, President, and Mr. Muck, our faithful Advisor, the Class of 1930 has been safely harbored.

To reach the lower price he lowers the quality. But when he seeks repeat orders his customers remember the lower quality—the lower price is forgotten. Expecting, as we do, to be in business for many years to come, we choose to operate as quality merchants on a more comfortable basis. We expect repeat orders. We wish our caps and gowns to be welcome next year, the next, and the next. Strict adherence to quality has built our business from a small beginning to its present nationwide position. PAUL A.

If so, we are content. We have tried to bring back to your memory, in pictures and writing, the outstanding activities and friendships of the year; and to bring back those little things which make college life worth while. We trust that we have realized our ambitions. The 1030 Peruvian is the result of many hours’ toil, sleepless nights and fretful days. If we have given you a new way to spell your name, or have given you a new name, do not blame us too much. We have tried to get everything as it should have been, and sometimes “to err is human.” The Peruvian has not been without its glorifying moments. The staff turn their thoughts back and realize the benefits derived from their experience with the annual work. There seems to be “something” about the annual work which you cannot forget. We wish to extend to the future Peruvian Staffs best wishes. —The Editor.
