ILLINOIS THE IQ32 PERUVIAN Published by the Student Body VOLUME XXV EDITOR’S 1908 Since our Alma Mater, the first state normal school in Nebraska, was founded there has been constant and rapid development until today she stands as a monument which serves to recall to her graduates the richness of the education and training received in her halls. We, the Staff of the 1932 Peruvian, have the privilege and honor of placing in your hands the Silver Anniversary Edition of the Peruvian. PREFACE 1932 In the pages which are to follow you will note the progress of a quarter of a century in the various divisions including Administration, Classes, Activities, Athletics and Organizations. It has been our purpose to bring to you a glimpse of the progress of our college in the past twenty-five years of its ex-istance and to especially vivify the activities and achievements of the past school year. To this end we hope the Staff of the 1932 Peruvian has succeeded. DEDICATION COLONEL T. J. MAJORS an enthusiastic promoter of education whose spirit has not become weakened by long years of service and one who stands among us today as hundreds of people know and remember him, a dominant personality, a living power. To him, the founder of the Normal School System of this State, this, the 25th volume of the COL T. J. MAJORS The Grand Old Man of Nebraska CONTENTS I I I I i Administration Classes Activities Athletics Organizations Kampus Komment mmm CHAPTER I The entrance picture on the opposite page is that of the Old Administration Building, which was located where the Auditorium and New Science Hall now stand. ADMINISTRATION Greetings to you as graduates! And God-speed to you in the journey you will make when you leave these halls. Your task may he more difficult than that of many who have gone this way before you. A changing civilization brings a difficult and puzzling time to those who direct the destinies of the young people of a nation. May the associations made and the training received here be such as will equip you for your work. And as you labor may the memories of Old Peru ever be an inspiration to you to give the best you have to the children placed in your charge. Sincerely yours. W. R. Pate. President.

Matiiews Superintendent of Training Principal of Junior High Principal of Senior High School THIi Training School is maintained by Peru State Teachers College to supply practice teaching for those training to be teachers. The high school is a member of the North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools, and is listed with those of highest rating by accrediting agencies of our state. It is the aim of the school to be conservatively progressive. New ideas of proved worth are adopted and practiced. A wide variety of studies and activities is offered, besides the college preparatory work offered in nearly all schools, pupils may choose cooking, sewing, home management, typewriting, bookkeeping, vocal and instrumental music, home mechanics, cabinet making, wood turning, general metal work, auto mechanics and swimming. In music the school has been represented for the past four years in district and state contests. In 1930 the orchestra won first place in Class C of the state contest. The girls glee club of 1930 won first place in District Two and in 1931 won second place in Class C of the state contest. This year the girls glee club won first in the M. I. N. K. music contest and the play first in Class B in the M.I.N.K. dramatic contest. In 1931 the basketball team was the champion of the Southeastern Nebraska Athletic Association and this year was the runner-up in both the Southeastern and in the regional tournament. Correspondingly high standards are maintained in scholastic work. As there is no other high school in the city the pupils of the training school form an un-selected group very similar to the group of children which those going out to teach will find in the average community. This gives very specific training for their work. Pupils, student teachers, and supervisors co-operate harmoniously to the advantage and benefit of all concerned. From the very beginning of school, things happened in the Junior High. Officers were elected in the various classes and they immediately began to plan their good times. Probably the high point of the fall term for the ninth grade was its Hallowe'en party. Then the parties in the eighth grade! How those girls can fix lunches! Candles, streamers, and fable decorations made the seventh grade party a memorable occasion. Combined with social activities are physical training, music instruction, and the fundamental subjects which, all together, aim toward the development of fine citizens.

Ross came to Peru in 1929 and at once began to make a name for himself in athletics. Before entering college Tolly had never played a game of football, but lack of experience is no drawback to a man of his type. During the 1929 season he made it mighty tough for the regular first stringers and won the respect of every man on the squad. Roscoe also played wonderful football during the 1930 season and. at the close of a very successful year at guard, was chosen by his teammates to pilot the 1931 Bobcats. No team could ask for a better leader than Roscoe Tolly whose record will always stand high in Peru athletic history. Peru is fortunate that this all-state guard, the leader of the 1931 Bobcats, still Captain Tolly has another football season to play for Old Peru.” Payc 100 1931 FOOTBALL VARSITY THK 1931 football season was entirely successful as far as the Peru Bobcats were concerned. Not because of the number of games won. but because of the number and quality of the material that was broken in during the season. This material will be invaluable during the next few years. Of the twenty-two lettermen. twelve are first year men. while only four will not be back for the 1932 season. This merely means that the outlook is very bright for next season. The season was an even break as far as the Bobcats were concerned. Peru won four games, lost four, and tied one. The schedule was one of the heaviest contracted by Peru in recent years, but the Bobcats emerged from the season with a total of eighty-six points to the opponents' sixty-one. The twenty-five points difference between Peru and its opponents showed the team's power. Peru finished second in the N. I. A. A. Conference of which Omaha University was chain-pion. This conference consists of Chadron. Kearney. Omaha University. Peru, and Wayne. Hach team in the conference plays every other conference team, consequently the Bobcats played four conference games. Non-conference games were played with strong teams from the N. C. A. C. Conference and with the Maryville Teachers College Wildcats of Maryville. Mo. r OACH GLENN GILKESON has finished his second year as Head Mentor of the Peru Bobcat football team. The coach is always the guiding hand in intercollegiate football and Gilk has certainly been the hand behind the Bobcats during the past two years. He not only is a student of football, but has a knack of getting his knowledge across to his men and also the power of instilling drive and fire into his teams. Although the Gilkeson coached teams have not established any outstanding records, they have learned many of those things which are most important and yet are so often overlooked by coaches. Some of these things are: sportsmanship, co-operation, and clean, right living. These are the things for which our coach. Glenn Gilkeson. stands and we are proud of him and his record as a man. athlete, and coach. Coach Gii.kkson Page 101 Leroy Webb End Sophomore Robert Carmichael End Freshman Burdette Cowell End Sophomore Meriban Bruce End Junior THE first game of the season was with the Maryville Wildcats and was played at Maryville. Missouri. The field was soggy and so was not very well adapted to a fast type of open field playing. Because of the mud. both teams were forced to hold pretty well to line play until the last quarter when an aerial attack was resorted to. As is the case with most season openers, the game at Maryville was not flawless, although both teams played exceptionally good football for the first game of the season. The game ended with Maryville on the long end of a 12 to 6 score. The Bobcats were the only team to score on the Maryville Wildcats during the 1931 season. Next came the “B team from Nebraska University. This game was perhaps the hardest of the season. Along with the Nebraskans came such stars as Roby. Kroger. Miller, and Staab and so consequently it was a long evening for the Bobcats. The fact that Nebraska had such a formidable team did not daunt the Peruvians however. Statistics of the game show that Peru out-yarded Nebraska and outplayed them in every division of the game, but there are those unaccountable things known as breaks which enter into almost every football game and so the score at the end of the game was I 3 to 7 in favor of the scarlet clad boys from the University. P.i„c 102 Earl Dasher Tackle Senior Jack Fisher Tackle Senior Harold Luttman Tackle Sophomore Okla Daiilgren Tackle Junior week following the Nebraska game, the Doane Tigers came to Peru for the annual battle. As is the case with most scoreless ties this game was relatively uneventful. Peru outdowned and outyarded the Doane team three to one and played in the Tiger’s territory during most of the game, but was unable to score. Once again the Bobcats broke over the conference lines and engaged in a battle with the Midland Warriors at Fremont. Midland had a team of veterans, some of which were all-state men. and so could not be called a set-up by any means. The Warriors opened the firing by scoring a touchdown during the first quarter, but were upset when Peru came back and marched down the field for two touchdowns in a row and completed one try-for-point. making the game 13 to 6 in favor of the Peru Bobcats. The game was very representative of every style of football. Both teams used a great deal of aerial work as well as straight line football, trick plays, and open field football. Playing conditions were not the best because of a fog. which covered the field making it rather difficult to distinguish the players. Ackerson. Peru guard, played a marvelous game at Fremont. Page 103 Glen Ackerson Robert Punches Howard Hatciier John Stevenson Guard Center ('enter Guard Senior Freshman Junior Freshman HOMECOMING is always a gala time at Peru. The highlight of the day was the football game, which was played this season with the Wayne State Teachers College Wildcats. The game was staged at eight o’clock on the night of Homecoming, before a crowd of approximately twenty-live hundred, mostly students and alumni. Peru’s natural athletic bowl was decorated very beautifully. The words. Welcome Wayne, were painted on the bank at the east side of the field. The crowd displayed a great deal of enthusiasm during the course of the game. In addition to being a Homecoming game, the game with Wayne was also Peru's first conference battle and so was doubly important. The Bobcats were pitched for the fray and advanced the ball to the Wildcats’ goal line no less than three times, only to be called back for one reason or another. During the second half Wayne was awarded one of those “breaks’ of the game and so scored the lone touchdown of the game. This touchdown gave them not only the game, but also the conference championship. This game was another of those affairs where the team which makes the most yards and most downs does not necessarily win. Paf c 10-i Geokgk Ok)k End Senior Arthur Harris Buck Sophomore Gaylord Littrkll Buck Sophomore Robert Pate Tackle Sophomore nPHE Peru hoys stepped out of the conference for a fifth time and encountered the strong Norfolk team. This conflict took place during the Teacher’s Convention vacation, and so there were but few on hand to witness the game. The Bobcats had heard much of the prowess and power of the Norfolk team and were prepared for a tough battle. They were in no sense disappointed for the team from the north put up a great light. It was in this game that the Peru first year men began to show their true worth. Butsy Harris was probably the outstanding player of the evening. He scored fourteen points, two touchdowns and two try-for-points. Next came a weeks rest for the Bobcats, after which they took to the railroad for a long ride to Chadron to meet the Chadron Eagles on their home field. The Eagles are no easy foe at any time and especially when met at Chadron. The red clad boys from Chadron played a wonderful line game led by their elusive halfback. Nemick. and Miller, a powerful tackle. It was all that Peru could do to hold her own during the first half, but when the Eagles began to open up with their passing game the Bobcats at once began to claw and. led bv Hatcher and Sautter, emerged with a victory. I he final score was Peru 18. Chadron 6. The long train ride had not been in vain for the Peruvians. Page 105 Russell Sautter Back Senior Dki.bert Miller Back Freshman Stephen Gaines Back Junior Clayton Goit Back Sophomore ON returning from Chadron the Bobcats pointed for the old rivals from Kearney, the Antelopes. Peru and Kearney did not meet during the 1930 season. The Antelopes were N. I. A. A. Conference champions for the 1930 season. Coach Ted James brought a team to Peru with high expectations of winning from the Bobcats, but due to the 1930 affair the Peruvians were well set for the Antelopes and consequent y walked away with a victory of 20 to 0. Peru had the edge at all times during the game and were at no time in any danger of being scored upon. Thanksgiving was a day of snow, sleet, and other sorts of disagreeable weather. The Bobcats traveled to Omaha to encounter the Omaha University Cardinals at Western League Park. Omaha, with the best team in years, were contenders for the conference title and only the Peru Bobcats stood between them and their desire. The field was covered with snow and the ground was frozen underneath the snow, so that the playing conditions were anything but good. It was very difficult for either team to make any headway until finally Sautter got away for a long end run and a touchdown, making the game 6 to 0 for Peru. During the second half Omaha ran two kickoffs back for touchdowns and the final whistle ended the game 12 to 6 in favor of the Omaha Cardinals. The Bobcats received, as usual, an excellent reception at Omaha. Only four of the 1931 Bobcats will not be back for the 1932 season. They are: Ackerson. guard; Dasher, tackle: Fisher, tackle: Sautter, back. There is a wealth of material left for 1932 which means that Peru should have an excellent team. Captain-elect Homer Hatcher, all-state quarterback for two consecutive years, is certainly the right man to lead the 1932 !3obcat football team. Hatch' has held a regular birth on Peru football teams for the past three years and has handled his position in championship style at all times. He is not only a field general and a punter, but he can also hit that line hard for those few yards which are so often badly needed. ‘Hatch’ weighs about one hundred and seventy-five pounds and can handle every ounce of his weight. He is the best passer in the N. I. A. A. and has pulled many a game out ol a tight hole with his accurate bullet passes. The 1932 Bobcats are fortunate to have such an all around man as their leader.

Homer has finished his third season of college basketball and has been chosen for a birth on the all-conference team for the second time. Last season he was the leading scorer in the conference and this season he collected a total of one hundred and forty-three points, averaging almost eight points per game. ' Hatch' has always played cool, steady basketball, the kind that a coach can count on in a pinch. He has that well known eye” for the basket and the ability to dribble or pass out of a tight situation. Being the captain of a basketball team is no easy job. but Homer handled it in great style. Peru is fortunate in having this great Bobcat back for an-Caf tain Hatcher other basketball season. Page 108 SOUTH END OF GYMNASIUM THE 1931-1932 Bobcat basketball team played one of the most difficult X schedules in the history of basketball at Peru. Not only did the schedule include superior teams but also long hard trips. Taking everything into consideration the season was very successful. Coach Dutch Lorbeer always starts the season out with a trip into Kansas where the Bobcats tackle the best basketball teams in the midwest. This year the trip included the fast Bethany College quintet at Lindsburg. Kansas. Bethany was the runner up in the 1931 National A. A. U. Tournament at Kansas City. With a team of veterans, including Larson. all-American center in 1931, the Bethany Swedes were a formidable foe. The Bobcats however were not daunted by the high standing of their foe and fought their way to a 2 1 to 22 victory. Head Basketball Coach Ernest E. Lorbeer has finished his fourth year as basketball mentor at Peru. During these four years Dutch has developed teams which have ranked right up with the best. His teams have placed first, second, and third in the conference but no matter where they placed they were excellent teams coached by an excellent coach. Dutch is a great athlete in his own right and so has that something to give, that instills pep and fire into his teams. Such players as Krejci. Hertz. Wasley. Hurst. Korber. Hatcher, and Groothius have been developed by Lorbeer while he has been at Peru and he bids fair to develop more men of this same calibre. His teams have beaten such nationally known teams as the Hillyards and Bethany. Peru has a right to be proud of her basketball teams and of her coach. Ernest E. “Dutch Lorbeer. Coach Lorbeer Page 109 Kenneth Priefert Guard Sophomore Edward Pederson Center Junior Chester Korhkr Guard Senior On the night following the Bethany game the Peru team traveled to Lamed. Kansas to meet the Lamed Athletic Club, an amateur team composed of former college stars from Kansas University. Emporia Teachers. Oklahoma University and other leading Universities. Lamed presented a wonderful team and gave the Bobcats a sound drubbing to the tune of 39 to 10. Hays State Teachers College is Coach Lorbeer's Alma Mater and so the Hays game is always a highlight in the Peru schedule. This year the Hays team was especially strong and so the Peruvians encountered much difficulty although it was a hard fought battle. The game ended with Hays on the long end of a 32 to 24 score. After the Kansas trip came a group of home games. Of the five games played on the home court, three were conference games. The first game at home was a return with the Bethany Swedes' who came to Peru to revenge the defeat administered upon them by the Bobcats at Lindsburg. They certainly must have gone back into Kansas satisfied for they won a 51 to 16 victory. Chadron. Peru’s keenest rival, came to Peru for a two game series. The Bobcats were pitched up for these two games and emerged victorious from both battles, the first 37 to 29 and the second 34 to 33. Page 110 Keith Melvin Bernard Galloway Russell Sautter Guard Forward Guard Senior Senior Senior The Chadron series was followed by a hard fought conference battle with Wayne. The Wildcats came to Peru with exactly the same team that they brought last year and consequently were no set-up. The game was very close from the opening whistle until the last. It finally ended Peru 35 and Wayne 33. Kearney was the next foe to invade the Bobcat haunts. They proved to be too much for the Peruvians and so returned to central Nebraska with another victory added to their list. Again the Peru Bobcats took to the road for a fifteen hundred mile trip which included seven games. Norfolk team was met first and disposed of easily, the Bobcats winning 51 to 21. From Norfolk the team moved to Wayne and met the Wildcats on their home floor. This time the Wayne team was hitting its full stride and so downed Peru 33 to 21. The conference champion. Omaha University, was next on the list. Peru always gets the same reception at Omaha and was not disappointed this time. The game was played on the Benson High School court to a good crowd of Omahans who were well pleased, for the Cardinals were victorious. Pane III Robert Carmichael Robert Punches Homer Hatcher Forward Center Forward Freshman Freshman Junior Six-hundred miles from Omaha to Chadron and two more games with the Eagles, this time on their home floor. The Chadron series was an even break. Peru taking one and Chadron one. On the return trip the Bobcats made two stops, one at Kearney where they met the Antelopes who defeated them and one at Hebron where they were victorious. After a week's rest the Peruvians were ready to do battle again. Norfolk came to Peru only to receive a sound drubbing 27 to 19. And again the Bobcats took to the road and traveled to Lincoln to play the Nebraska B team. One of the hardest battles of the season was played in the University Coliseum. Peru returned home with the scalps of the scarlet clad boys from Nebraska. Last on the season’s program was a return game with Omaha University. This game was not only last but one of the very best of the season Omaha won a hard fought battle. Much fine material is returning to Peru next year and so the 1932-1933 basketball team should be one of the best in the history of the school Of course Peru regrets the loss of such men as Korbcr. Galloway. Sautter, and Melvin. Captain-elect Kenneth Pricfert. better known on the campus as Red.” is another great guard to add to the long list of Peruvian athletic notables. Red is the man who had the stuff to follow Big Ber. Groothius and to play by the side of Chet Korber. Not only does Priefert have the ability to keep the opponents from scoring but he can slip up the middle of the floor and add the points to the Bobcat's side of the scoreboard. Red has finished his second season with Peru and so is due for two more seasons one of which he will lead the Bobcats. Kenneth Pricfert is certainly the logical man to lead the 1932-193 5 Peru basketball team and we sincerely hope tha he will lead the Bobcats to a conference championship.

With Captain Cowell, all around track man. and eleven other letter men. beside a great number of good Freshmen at his call. Coach Gilkeson should have a well rounded team. Captain Cowell is probably the most outstanding performer on the squad. He is a high hurdler, sprinter, pole vaulter. broad and high jumper, and relay man.

In 1931 the first Inter-Fraternity Banquet held on Peru Campus was sponsored by Kappa Delta Pi Society. This banquet took place on Wednesday of Commencement Week. It is hoped that this will become an established function. Every alternate year one delegate from each chapter is entertained at the annual convocation of the chapters which meets at the time and place of the meeting held by the Department of Superintendents of the N.

It was the first national professional fraternity on the campus. The Greek letters forming the name symbolize the motto: Sincerity, Truth, and Design. Since its inception there have been one hundred seventy members initiated. The chapter at Peru and one in Texas are the most active of the sixty-two chapters throughout the United States. The official publication of the fraternity is “The Rectangle, published four times each year from the national headquarters at Wayne. Nebraska. The local chapter has been represented in all but one issue of The Rectangle.” Page 128 SIGMA TAU DELTA National English Fraternity First Hustings. Ilau| (mnn. Hayward. Kins. Konis. Lovitt. MeGivw.

IGMA TAU DELTA aims to stimulate worthwhile reading, to foster a spirit of fellowship among men and women specializing in English, and to promote the mastery of written expression. Each year the December meeting is devoted to the presentation of original Christmas writing, and annually the chapter has a prominent speaker as its guest at which time the Freshmen Writing Club is entertained. As a part of the regular commencement exercises. Sigma Tau Delta makes its gold medal award to the freshman writing the best essay during the year. The Phi Alpha Chapter at Peru had two delegates. Mcrna Brownson and Bernice Lovitt. at the National Triennial Convention in Madison. Wisconsin. December 28-30. The local fraternity was unable sufficiently to finance the trip, so an amendment to the constitution was adopted which will provide for the accumulation in three years of a fund of forty-five dollars to be used for the next convention in St. Louis in 1934. An invitation to exchange programs once during the year was extended to the chapter of Sigma Tau Delta at the Omaha Municipal University, but they were unable to accept. It is hoped, however, that such a plan can be realized another year. KAPPA OMICRON PHI National Home Economics Sorority Firxi Now- Itrnckncy, Itradv. Fackler, Fisher. Flinn. SrI llauptman. Milstead.

The 1932 Staff has had the distinction of building the silver anniversary edition. It has been interesting to trace the progress of P. S. T. C. in every phase of activity since the publication of the first Peruvian in 1908. The theme of the book this year is its Silver Anniversary and the editors have attempted to carry out this theme in the cover and the opening and division pages. If th staff has given you such things in this volume as will serve to recall the year 1931-1932 as it was spent in Old Peru —then it will feel that its purpose has been accomplished.

PERUVIAN KEY AWARDS John A. Bath Harvey T.

The above people were chosen upon recommendation by the Editor and the Business Manager. Eva Kinisey. who was awarded a Key last year as a member of the 1931 Staff , receives honorable mention again this year. The entire Staff has cooperated in a very fine manner and it is this attitude that brings about the best results. True enough, most of the responsibility falls upon the Staff members as far as production is concerned, but without the cooperation of the entire student body and faculty members such a publication would not be possible. The Editor and Business Manager take this opportunity to thank t.ie Staff members for their ready cooperation and in turn the Staff wishes to thank all those who have in any way aided in the publication of the yearbook. p«Wc 153 Page 155 E R U V I A N ( POEMTRY t k I luv the littul green kapps they look so diggnified hut i feel sorrie 4 the cuss that hides it away inside 4 wen the Upperclassmen get hold of him in hi unholy glee the wretched fella crawls around in abjeck mizzery.

But they certainly don't become efficient in reporting the news. St. Peter: Oh. of course not. your students work on puzzles during your lectures.

Page IS5 'JpHE last page of copy is in the printer's hands and so we give a sigh of relief and wait with anxious eyes to behold the first copy. The task has not been an easy one. We have done our best, but we realize that there are many mistakes. If we are censured for the minor mistakes, all we can do is hope that you may sometime be placed on an annual staff. We mourn with those who paid dues and had their pictures taken but do not find them in the annual: or who forgot to pay their dues (but not because they were not reminded enough): or those who have been given a new name (even your best friend may not know how to spell it): or those who did not think that the Editor meant it when he said December 1st. We often wonder if students and teachers realize why certain people rather persistently sleep in classes or occasionally, of course, come to class unprepared. Why they apparently seem to be day dreaming and wake up five minutes later to realize that someone has asked them a question. In such a case, inquire if they are on the staff. At this time we wish to thank Dr. Holch for his ever-ready. helpful advice and suggestions: the Peterson Studio for getting photographs done on time: the printer and engraver in cooperating to get this publication before you on time; and Merritt Thornhill for the help with the cartooning. And. now that it is all over, we wash our hands of the whole thing. To future staffs we say. You have a task before you. May you publish the finest Annual in Peru's history. John A.
