■■■■■ Eliza Morgan and Mount Vernon Halls Located on tho Site of the Original Campus 8uiUing T 1 HE purpose of any year book is to chronicle the current history of the institution it serves. The 1934 PERUVIAN is unusual in that the Present is set forth not only for its significance to the Future but as an interpretation of the Past. Where we have been facetious it is in no sense to ridicule, but simply to present past generations at Peru in the collegiate manner which they themselves might have done had the direction of this book been in their hands. The firm rocks in the foundation of this school have been the men and women pioneers in education who have preceded us. Only a few of them can we herein honor. The green on every page symbolizes the growth of this institution, a living memorial to their labors. As one more chapter in the history of Nebraska's first normal school we leave this, the 1934 PERUVIAN. I 1 ofBUVZHv Js 1867 1934 oA •,nste.cL.

McKENZlE—preceptress and teacher of rhetoric, geography and history THE FACULTY Faculty Historical Sketch of Departments Mrs. C. B. McKenzie, who taught history, geography, and rhetoric. Soon all of the subjects taught were classified into four divisions or departments, mathematics, natural science, language, and history and philosophy. Thus it may be seen that mathematics, language, and the sciences were fairly well established with the school. Mathematics from the beginning held a fairly large share of the curriculum. Latin, Greek, German, and French have been taught at various times. The sciences hove grown gradually, the most important single step in their history probably being their division into deportments in 1892. The separation of MARIE H. FAULHABER A. 8.. A. M.

THE 1934 PERUVIAN THE 193 Faculty Fc Historical Sketch of Departments Historical Sice The history of the scholastic departments in Peru is a checkered one. The organization and classification of subjects in the early curricula seem hardly logical to us today in the light of the present organization; still, in the early curricula appeared the seeds from which, rapidly or slowly, depending upon the deportment, grew the present arrangement. So gradual or halting have been some advances that the assigning of definite dotes is impossible or inaccurate. The Normal School proper began in 1867 with a faculty of two teachers, Mr. J. M. McKenzie, who taught chemistry, mathematics, natural science, and Latin, and Mrs. C. B.

Bagg, was appointed to devote his entire time to instruction along that line. The department of commerce, as such, was organized in 1906, under the present Dean of Men, W. N. Delzell. The work in home economics was begun at nearly the same time, under Alice M. Loomis. Work definitely in instruction in the industrial arts began about 19 12, under F. C. Smith. Hygiene instruction originated in other classes, but not until 1915 was it added to the curriculum. BEE? 1 EMILIE B. PAPEZ GRACE M. PETERSEN GEORGE W. SMITH G. HOLT STECK A. B.. A. M. A. B.. B.

Instruction in English and professional work was incidental with the beginning of the school. English work was done in the first courses in rhetoric and grammar, though most English work was looked upon os a prerequisite. The greatest diversity of origin may be assigned the departments of music and physical education because of their spontaneous qualities. Certain it is that singing groups were organized nearly os soon os the school. At first athletics, os music, were extracurricular, though gymnastics were in the first years mode curricular. After the turn of the century. athletics began to become respectable” as a part of the curriculum. Though work in art was done A. V. LARSON B. S.. A. M. Supervisor of Manual Arts. J. O. LAWRENCE B.

Bill ornct Kindergarten THE 1934 PERUVIAN m Hpjl FOOTBALL From outlaws to heroes has been the progress of the Peru gridsters. Those first footballers, who in 1884 retreated to a pasture east of the athletic field that they might enjoy their favorite sport, were violating a specific ruling of the administration. This first group was divided into the Blacks and the Whites. Bill York was chosen to officiate the tussle, not because he was an apt scholar of the game, but rather for the reason that his muscles bulged larger. Fiery disputers were auickly and effectively rebuked. D. D. Ashley, now a prominent New York City physician, captained these pioneering footballers. The first official Peru football game was staged some nine years later. In the fall of 1893. the Bobcats journeyed to the old Nebraska City fair grounds where they engaged in combat the Y. M. C. A. team of Omaha. Mr. Bill Davenport, none other than our present town board member, eluded the Omaha tribe for one lone touchdown but his efforts woro in vain as the Peru squad was defeated. Keeping stride with the progress of the Bobcat team, the administration formulated plans for construction of the athletic field. Accordingly in 1901 the field was completed and the dedicatory game was played: the high school team of Falls City afforded the competition, but were outclassed by a 30 to 0 count. Another Peruvian still in our midst was a potent factor in this game. Harry Hutchison, local elevator man. And so we have traced, briefly, the history of our football progress through its three most significant phases. That Blue and White teams of the future shall, even as this year's team, prove themselves worthy successors to their athletic heritage, is the confident hope of all Peruvians.

ATHLETIC DIRECTORS Head Football Coach. Glen Gilkeson. has completed his fourth consecutive year of tutoring Bobcat football teams. True, his splendid 1933 team did not successfully defend the state championship but it merited that of the previous year. But there are standards of judging the worth of football teams and coaches that are not measured in terms of gold footballs. No trophies will adorn the watch-chains of the 1933 players, but imbued within their minds is a definite concept of the worth of a coach who builds strong bodies and character —Glen Gilkeson. Than head Basketball Coach, Ernest E. Dutch Lor-beer, there is no more respected and likeable man on the campus. He works his men hard but sensibly, and they respond with a willing, confident zeal because Dutch is one they know and like. His congenial personality, however, in no way overbalances his knowledge. Dutch is himself a famous athlete and so has that practical experience so invaluable to a college coach. He is thoroughly basketball wise , his teams always having finished at or near the top.

A very bright October sun made the temperature a bit too warm for ideal football weather, and after a slow and unimpressive start the Peruvians rallied and copped another 13 to 0 win. Thus the old grads who packed the stadium-witnessed the Bobcats' third successive victory, despite the fact that they suffered a slight let down. The Hastings Bronchos did considerable bucking on their own field the following week, but an aggressive pack of battling Bobcats quelled the fiery spirit of the Broncs and rode to a 7 to 6 victory.

Quiet and unassuming, Deb is not a flashy player, but is invariably where he should be at the right time, executing his assignment effectively. Ho was a competent leader, and Peru is indeed fortunate to have access to his services again next year. The 1933 Bobcat eleven made an auspicious debut against Marysville Teachers on the Missourians’ own gridiron. Steve Gaines’ generalship featured in a game that saw Carmichael and Story doing some excellent ball lugging. Peru scored a touchdown in each of the first three quarters and tapered off by scoring a safety in the last canto. The final reckoning credited Gilk's” boys with a 20 to 0 victory, it being the worst defeat a Marysville team ever suffered at Peru's hands. The boys enjoyed a week's rest following the Marysville fray, again invading foreign soil the following week to tackle the Warriors of Midland College. Midland's vaunted aerial attack was completely frustrated by an alert group of Bobcat backs. With this, Midland's hnost potent offensive threat checked, the Warriors were forced to resort to defensive tactics. ’’Babe Story, however, eluded their most careful efforts and ran to touchdowns in the first and last quarters. A tenacious defense also played an important part in the Bobcats' splendid 13 to 0 victory. The feature of the 1933 Homecoming festivities was the football game with the Plainsmen of Wesleyan University.

The Bobcats chose a team of national reputation as their first opponent for the 1933-1934 season. The famous Marysville Bearcats furnish the opposition and were hard pushed to win a 25 to 20 verdict in a well-played game staged on the Missourian's ov n court. Lorbeer's basketeers also played their second tussle in the show me state and this time emerged victorious over Tarkio College. Carmichael led the scoring for the Peruvians as the Tarks took a 29 to 25 beating. The first home game of the season was a return mix with Tarkio. Forward Bus Moore was hitting from all angles, and the Bobcats finished ahead 31 to 2 I. Probably the most thrilling game of the season was played with the Lincoln Federals, a team composed of Hokuf, Fisher and other former Nebraska U. luminaries. After trailing most of the first half, the Lincoln squad rallied and eked out a 35 to 33 victory. This encounter was followed by a two-game series with Chadron’s Eagles, defending champions. Feathers flew as a hungry Bobcat atoned for a humiliating football loss by taking both games. The first night, Chadron submitted to a 29 to 12 drubbing followed by a 24 to 19 loss the succeeding evening. The next brace of conference games saw the blue and white quintet breaking even. Wayne lost a 22 to 25 thriller in a scramble that resulted in the loss of Carmichael, star pivot man. The rangy center sustained a broken arm, and his absence was felt keenly when the Bobcats journeyed to Omaha the following week and dropped a 29 to 17 decision. riGGS End THE 19 3 4 PERUVIAN ml r j; m m FOOTBALL However, this reputation was short-lived as Omaha's Red Birds journeyed to Peru and garnered a 13 to 0 victory. The Peru defense bogged as a brilliant trio of Cardinal backs took turns at puncturing the Bobcat line. The Bobcats enjoyed some very good moments, but failed to sustain a drive for any length of time. The game, as is typical of most Omaha-Peru conflicts, was an unusually rough affair, both teams drawing numerous penalties. After the Omaha mix, the Peruvians journeyed to the extreme northwestern corner of the state to engage in battle the champion Eagles of Chadron. Here the Bobcats encountered a superior team and were quite decisively outplayed. Coach Rufus Trapp used his remarkable reserve strength to full advantage in wearing down the Peruvians. The red-garbed Westerners had a brilliant array of performers, Christianson, halfback, and the redoubtable Indian Miller, tackle, being outstanding. The final score read 22 to 0 against Peru. The last game of the season was played on the home field against the Wayne Wildcats. Badly perturbed by the disturbing antics of Wayne's shifty halfback, Gast, the Bobcats were trailing 14 to 0 in the last quarter. Then it was that a splendid Peru rally revealed a marvelous fighting spirit that carried the blue and white clad boys to a 14 to 14 tie. A remarkably executed barrage of passes played the major role in the attack that resulted in two touchdowns, with both extra points converted. Thusly did a successful season know its fitting end in a surge of undeniable Peru Spirit. With all lettermen but four returning to the fold next year, prospects for a winning team are exceedingly heartening. Those graduated are: Gaines, Goit, Cowell, and Pate. THE 19 34 PERUVIAN TRACK Bobcat track teams, especially under Gilkeson's tutelage, always make creditable showings. With eleven letter men this spring returning to the fold, the 1934 cinder artists should prove no exception. Robert Bob Carmichael, versatile three-sport letterman, steps into his first captaincy as he leads the Peru tracksters through the season. His specialty is clearing high jump standards set at six feet. Ex-captain Cowell, judging from past performances, should be the Bobcats' most valuable point-getter. Ably assisting will be the nine remaining lettermen. These are: Luttman, javelin thrower; Shafer, Andrews, and Newton, middle distances; Perry and Cook, long distances; Witt, sprints: and Pate and Punches, weights. The 1933 performers enjoyed one of the most creditable seasons of Bobcat track history, being all-victorious in their trio of dual encounters. Led by Captain Bo Cowell, versatile sprint, hurdle, and jump artist, Peru barely eked out a v in in the season's opener over the strong Marysville aggregation. The succeeding meet found the Bobcats invading Missouri to contest with Tarkio, and winning their second victory of the season at the expense of opponents from the show me state. Omaha's Cardinals came here for the closing meet of the season and were crushed by an overwhelming score. Peru dominated both track and field events. Last year's team closed a successful season by copping second honors in the State College Meet held at Lincoln. One notch higher and the championship forms the goal for this year's performers.

Champions of the N. C. A. C. Conference for four successive years, they displayed a smooth working outfit, featured by the uncanny offensive work of the midget all-state forward, Kounouvsky. The Bobcats broke even on their next two games: both played on Peru maples and both conference frays. Moore led a great second-half rally as the Peruvians nipped Kearney’s Antelopes by a 47 to 33 tune. Following this, Omaha U. clinched the championship by virtue of a 38 to 25 win. The remaining four games on the schedule involved a pair of road trips. The Bobcats fared rather disastrously on the first, losing to Midland 22 to 15 and Wayne 35 to 29. They fully redeemed themselves by taking a 37 to 36 win from Kearney and second in the conference. Hebron was the last victim, losing a 36 to 33 Captain Punches ably led the Bobcats through their pendable guard was a bulwark on defense and his return aid the Cats in their quest for the championship.

Those men who have lettered in any of the sports through intercollegiate competition, football, basketball, track, or tennis are eligible for membership. From 1920, the date of its origin under Coach Speer, until 1929 this organization was called the P Club. The purpose has ever been the fostering of sportsmanship. The alumni - varsity basketball game which brought Joe Krejci. Ernie Rothert, Swede Hertz, Bernard Galloway, Homer Hatcher, Edward Peterson, Brigham Young, and other famous Peru athletes again to the campus was one of the many activities sponsored by the fraternity. In April the Spring Review proved a most entertaining program. Phi Lambda Alpha and the Dramatic Club joined forces to make this a success. One of the outstanding social events at Peru is the annual P Club dance. Members of the basketball and football squads were special guests of the group this year. Thirteen new members, after undergoing a week of severe trial of their strength and stamina, were allowed to enter the fold of the organization in 1934. Phi Lambda Alpha provides a unifying agent whereby all those who possess superior athletic ability in any of the sports may work together toward the maintenance of high athletic standards.

Again in the fall of 1933 a Field Representative was sent to test applicants for their Examiner's badge, at which time ten examiners qualified. The last tests were given in March. 1934. Again, several Peruvians met satisfactorily the Senior Test qualifications at that time. During their two years of existence here, these tests have known a successful and commendable growth. Credit for this, in a large measure, must be given to Miss Phyllis Davidson, women's athletic director, who has conducted several life saving classes during the past two years.

To the athletically inclined girl it opens a most varied program of health and recreation: hit-pin ball, volleyball, baseball, basketball, hockey, swimming, pyramid building, and hiking. The tournament gomes played at the end of each sport season prove of intcrost to the general studont body as well as to the participants. Points are awarded for entrance into the various activities. Five hundred such points entitle a girl to a letter, and for earning one thousand she is awarded a sweater, which it is possible for a girl to earn within a period of two years. To build a cabin was the goal set for this year. Through sponsoring an all-college dance, and presenting. among other activities, a Sport Review, one of the most unusual, successful entertainments given at Peru, they have raised sufficient funds, and the cabin has become a reality.

Peru students were forced to forego the advantages of a suitable field for athletic sports. The only place sufficiently level to afford competition was on the flats northeast of the depot Obviously enough, the inaccessibility and absence of school control rendered these fields unsatisfactory. Hence about the only sport left was footracing—Normal Avenue being the scene of numerous hotly contested racing duels. With the increased interest in athletics among secondary schools throughout the state came the realization that if the Normal School should do its full duty by the students, it must provide for the various forms of athletic contests. Accordingly, plans for the building of the present Athletic Field were in full sway by the fall of 1901. There was no fund available for the meeting of construction expense. and so Professors Howie. Whitenack. and Porter bore the financial burden. The above named men personally guaranteed the money necessary for construction, and the work was begun early in Octobor of 1901. Space forbids details of that eventful Saturday when, to quote The Normalito. ' school monthly magazine, every young man in school, including members of the faculty, appeared at 7:00 a. m. in overalls on the slopes of the hollow cast of the building and began to make 'dirt fly.’ That was the beginning of our Athletic Field. Since that time, improvement has rendered it one of the best in the central west. This same year witnessed Peru's entrance into organized athletics. On Thanksgiving Day of 1901 the first football game was played. Falls City High School furnishing the opposition. This was the dedicatory game and proved to be a gala day as the Falls City aggregation was repulsed by a 30 to 0 count. That year, and for several years later, victory in college games was not hoped for. Comparison of that position with the one Peru now holds is sufficient summary of our progress. During these years of advancement certain men. both coaches and players, maintain outstanding places. Peru athletics have mado their most conspicuous advance during the Spear, Graf and Gilkeson regime. This trio of mentors have been at the helm since the Blue and White won state and even nationwide fame. As inseparably linked with these coaches are certain stars of the period—the great Bitzy, Gilk. Swede Hertz, and more recontly—Homer Hatcher, all-state performer and captain of both the football and basketball teams. The year 1901 also marks basketball's beginning in the institution. Especially did the girls enjoy success in this field. During the first six years of intercollegiate competition, the girls had the enviable rocord of averaging a single loss per year. Three of these wore at the hands of the State University of Lincoln. The male basketballers were somewhat slower in getting started, but once under way achieved real fame by establishing a world's record of 54 consecutive victories. Our own Coach Gilkeson was instrumental in attaining the record. The great Bitzy was also a member of the world's record quintet. Tennis and track development in tho college have been less conspicuous but fully as important as growth evidenced in the fields of sport already discussed. Tennis advancement has been most rapid in recent years. Two years ago three new clay singles courts were added to the two concrete ones then in use. Last year, the Bobcat netsmen closed what was probably the most successful season Peru ever enjoyed, winning six of their seven intercollegiate matches. The Tracksters have also been highly successful in recent years, and bid fair to go far in the seasons to come. Baseball is the only sport to have been dropped from tho athletics program. This is due largely to the lock of a field, and the general absence of interest in Nebraska intercollegiate baseball. Coach Lorbeer, big league catcher, has givon some valuable first hand information in his classes, concerning the game's fine points. Unlike the women, the men's sports proaram is largely on an intercollegiate basis. Especially during the past two years, however. Coach Gilkeson has given special attention to an intramural sports tournament. Through participation in this every boy in school is given an opportunity to engage in his favorite sport. Basketball, tennis, track, handball, swimming, and volleyball comprise the various divisions of the tournament. And so, Peruvians of 1934 look with just pride upon a sports program that is highly commendable. May the inevitable future development of Peru athletics further enhance our sports reputation. 69 TENNIS MAXWELL (Coach). WEST. ROHRS. SHUMARD. MILLER The 1933 Bobcat netsters enjoyed a highly successful season. They dropped a single meet, boing eked out by the crack Tarkio outfit in the season's first game. Cotner College of Lincoln invaded Peru for the home opener and were repelled by a 5 to I count. Cotner's Misner moasurcd West for his team's only tally. Next came a slightly overconfident band of netsters from Omaha University. They paid the bill by submitting to a white-washing. The Douglas County clan failed to garner a single point as compared to Peru's six. Tarkio followed Omaha's fruitless invasion and the Bobcats completely avenged their early season loss by copping a 6 to 3 win. The victory embodied special significance for Peru inasmuch as it was Tarkio's first defeat in three years. Marysville followed Tarkio to Peru and were dealt the same fate as their Missourian predecessors. The Bobcats journeyed to Omaha for a return match and again finished on top, this time by a 5 to 2 margin. Peru's return engagement with Cotner again found the Lincoln crew unable to cope with the Peru netsters. The Bobcats won by a 5 to I count. The nucleus of the 1933 team returns to the fold this year. If Wost's threatened ineligibility materializes, Fred Rohrs and Delbert Miller will probably vie for the number one position. The 1934 schedule, as yet incomplete, will be essentially the same as that of last yoar.

At that time a boy and a girl were elected from each class to represent the student body. Following this precedent the same form of organization was utilized this year. This council was organized for the purpose of suggesting to the administration those ideas originating with the student body and deemed worthy of adoption by members of the council. Many of the present social and campus innovations have come about through the recommendations of the council. To direct the social activities of the campus the Social Committee was appointed. Outlining the social program of the year is one of their duties, and they have been most active in arranging and sponsoring the all-college dances of the year. Miss Phyllis Davidson and Professor Larson are the faculty sponsors of this group. These two organizations form the connecting link between the administration of the school and the student body.

Alice Mae Bisgard, as the queen, stepped through a large heart to the view of her subjects, and seated in majestic sweetness on her throne, watched and listened to the elaborate program. To the queen and her attendants, Claudia Luse, Marjorie Hull, Opal Gaines, and Evelyn Davis, Dan Cupid presented the valentines of the years. From this door issued the colonial girl playing on her violin The Old Refrain, the Floradora girl sextet, six school day sweetheart tap dancers, a valentine which could be called only My Darling, a heart of Ireland, and last of all the proverbial comic valentine. Eunice Bergman and Charlotte Martin were awarded prizes for the costumes of greatest beauty, while Eileen Means and Marion Munn as Raggedy Ann and Andy carried off the prize for the funniest costumes. The men of the campus were invited to a special Chapel Program presented by this group. The bi-monthly meetings of the girls held in the College Auditorium carried out in their theme the ten aims of the club to: Cultivate inner poise and grace. Help girls as a group to work together toward a common goal. Promote friendship and good fellowship. Stand for unity of action. Create a cultural and appreciative atmosphere. Manifest co-operation for the betterment of the social and ethical standard Make a place for real fun and pep at the proper time. Create a spirit of individual devotion. ty Form a worthwhile relaxation period. Aid in a financial crisis. 1 L VALENTINE PARTY 73 THE Girls’ Club is a live and important organization open to every girl on the campus. Now in its fifteenth year, it is continuing to accomplish the aims of its founder, Miss Mattie Cook Ellis, by uniting all girls in friendly cooperation and love. The high ideals of the club have helped to raise the social and ethical standards of the campus. It has also given financial assistance to many needy girls, who otherwise could not attend college. The council is made up of the officers and representatives: two elected from each floor of the dormitories and one from the west, east, and south sections of town. Mrs. Dunning, the sponsor of the organization, is vitally interested in each girl as an individual personality, and she strives to assist that girl in making decisions necessary to planning her college career. At each meeting of the club she brings to the whole group some thought worthy of consideration. OFFICERS LORA DICKERSON .... President LOIS MAY.......................Treasurer LUCILLE WHITE . . .

M. C. A. The Young Men's Christian Association is a union of students and faculty members for the purpose of learning to know God. The association does this both by study and through experience. The group strives always to be progressive and seeks to find the application of the ideals of Christ to modern problems, in the belief that this is one of the needs of the times. 1886 saw the beginning of Y. M. C. A.'s many endeavors on this campus. A large number of varying activities have been sponsored by the Y during the past year. A church-program service has been maintained and deputation teams have been sent out to many churches, affording, among other things, training in Christian leadership. It has been the policy of the Y to bring speakers and Y leaders to the campus, both for the benefit of the Y. M. C. A. and for the inspiration of the general student body. C. D. Hayes, traveling secretary for the district, has twice visited the campus in the last year. This spring the newly elected officers were sent to the Spring Officers' Training Conference held at Midland College. Members of the organization also participated in the Rocky Mountain Field Council Meeting. During the winter months a series of Sunday morning meetings was held. At these meetings Bruce Curry's outline of student problems was followed. The annual Father and Son Banquet was sponsored by the Y jointly with the Kiwanis Club on December 12. The Wednesday night meetings are the main channel through which religious inspiration is offered to the boys of the campus. CABINET . . . President ORVILLE BUEHLER . . .

These aims have been carried out in the activities of this organization since the granting of its charter on October 19, 1887. Y. W. C. A. gives every girl an opportunity to pause each Wednesday night for a quiet hour and become better acquainted v ith herself and her God. During the week she is welcome at any time to enjoy the reading room which has been established in Mount Vernon Hall by the organization. In this room are kept the books of the circulating library. A watermelon frolic the first night of school introduced the freshmen and all girls new at Peru to the Y. W. C. A. organization. The work done by Miss Stella Scurlock, regional secretary, proved so outstanding last year that she was again invited to the campus in 1934. A group of Y. W. C. A. workers attended the district conference at Fremont in March, and several of the members plan to attend the National Conference at Estes Park this summer. To co-operate with the Y. M. C.

The charter members wore selected from the membership of Sigma Beta Rho, a local honorary biological fraternity. Dr. A. E. Holch was the first sponsor. Tri Beta was organized for the purpose of supplying for the Biological Sciences an honorary undergraduate fraternity. Membership comes as a reward for active interest in the study of the Biological Sciences and as a recognition of attainment above the average in the courses offered in the college curriculum. The organization has a threefold purpose: first, development of sound scholarship: second, dissemination of scientific truth; third, promotion of research. Associate membership is open to lower classmen who show especial interest and aptitude in biology. The official publication of Beta Beta Beta is Bios. published quarterly. At the present time there are thirty-one chapters of the organization in various colleges in the United States and abroad.

An invitation to become a member of Alpha Mu Omega is extended to the student who has attained certain scholastic standards and has completed a required number of courses in mathematics. When the charter was granted, eleven names appeared on the roll. This year. 1934. finds thirty members with fourteen of those thirty having been awarded membership during the past term. Bi-monthly the members meet to enjoy programs conducted by the students. Besides increasing the recreational phase of mathematics the purpose of these meetings is to promote and develop interest in mathematics and provide an opportunity for the discussion of related subjects which are not presented in the class room. Subjects interesting to prospective teachers are topics of discussion at these bi-monthly meetings. Demonstrations of unusual and intriguing problems are often presented, and the use of mathematics in other vocations pointed out and illustrated. Such activities have developed a deeper interest in mathematics and served as an inspiration to the future teachers in this field. In addition to the members whose pictures appear, Melba Cope, Dorothy Jennings. Max Kerns, Lloyd Perry. Robert Punches. Paul Vance, and Otto Wollensick are included on the club roll. Kappa Delta Pi National Honorary Education Society The annual Kappa Delta Pi banquet and initiation were held at Homecoming, so that the alumni members were privileged to be present. It is hoped that this plan will become a tradition with the society. Weekly book reviews were inaugurated by Kappa Delta Pi. These, however, had to be abandoned after almost a semester because no time could be obtained for them. Kappa Delta Pi members took charge of the chapel periods during National Education Week, using as the theme of their programs the outline suggested by the National Committee. Kappa Delta Pi is also supervising and directing the leveling of the land and the building of tables to convert the Dutch Oven into a suitable picnic place. Other organizations on the campus and in the town are each paying for the construction of one table. In 1932 the sponsoring of the Inter-Fraternitv Banquet given during Commencement week became an established function of the organization. Every alternate year one delegate from each chapter is entertained at the annual convocation of chapters which convenes at the time and place of the meeting held by the Department of Superintendents of the N. E. A. This year the meeting was held at Cleveland. Ohio. Beta Mu Chapter was very ably represented by Florence Martin, the president of the local chapter. The vows taken by those received into membership in Kappa Delta Pi have served as the theme of the programs carried on throughout the year at the monthly meetings. To develop a higher degree of professional fellowship is one of the main objectives of Kappa Delta Pi. To insure a participation of each member in every program, fitting responses were required in answer to roll call. When Dr. T. C. McCracken, the National Executive President, installed Beta Mu Chapter, twenty-eight members were included on the charter roll. The present membership is slightly larger, thirty-one; so one may see that Kappa Delta Pi has constantly maintained its position on the campus. The Kadelpian is the official publication of the fraternity. MAYSTRICK MUELLER PAYNE SHUBERT WAGNER MILLER R.

Beta Mu Chapter was installed in the national organization of Kappa Delta Pi on May 25. 1929, under the leadership of J. W. Tyler, and had the distinction of being the first Nebraska chapter. Every year Beta Mu Chapter gives recognition to outstanding students. At Commencement Kappa Delta Pi makes an award to the outstanding freshman. In the spring all of the Sophomores whose scholastic standing is such that they will be eligible for Kappa Delta Pi in their Junior year are guests of the society at a picnic at the Dutch Oven.

The Peru chapter was the seventy-second to be formed. Leroy Allen originated the idea of Pi Gamma Mu in the early spring of 1924 at Southwestern College, Winfield. Kansas. Pi Gamma Mu is not an ordinary honorary fraternity. 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 motto is Ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. 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 juniors and seniors of superior scholastic rank who are majoring or minoring in history or other social sciences. No particular theme save the general purpose of the group has been carried out in the programs of Pi Gamma Mu this year Some of the meetings are devoted to a detailed study of current events, such as Russian recognition. A social meeting in February was one of the most enjoyable. At this time the society was entertained at the home of its adviser, Dr. Brown. At another Miss Frances Harvey shared some of the material she had discovered in doing research in Texas history. At the January meeting Mrs. Campbell reviewed her trip abroad. The organization is seriously contemplating the purchase of various social science periodicals which will be of interest to the entire group.

The local group, the Kappa Chapter, was installed June 27, 1933, at which time nine members were initiated. The charter members of this chapter are Ora Ferguson, Hubert Filley, Alfred Knapp, Charles Penney, Moras Shubert, Elizabeth Sprague, and Dr. F. E. Ware. Initiates added to this list the first semester were Huston Kingsolver, John Neman, Robert Pate. Darrell Railsback, and Robert Sayre. The first chapter of the fraternity was organized at Fairmont. West Virginia, in 1925. Since then nine other chapters have become affiliated. The second chapter to become associated with this honor society is located at another of Nebraska's State Teachers Colleges. Beta Chapter at Wayne. There is also a chapter at Kearney. To promote interest in the study of the Physical Sciences is the aim of Lambda Delta Lambda. This purpose is accomplished in two ways: first, by scholarship restrictions for membership, and secondly, by a requirement that each member complete a project in these fields. This project must show some originality. It may be a demonstration or model pertaining to some principle of physical science, or, if in the form of a report, it must be the summarization of extensive reading on a chosen subject. These projects are presented at a regular meeting for approval. The programs are devoted to setting forth and discussing subjects of latest scientific interest, stimulating at all times a desire to read current science periodicals. Sigma Tau Delta National English Fraternity Each year Sigma Tau Delta is accustomed to entertain some notable speaker as the principal event of the year's program. Both this year and last year it was honored by Dr. John S. Neihardt. poet laureate of Nebraska. Every year, in order to stimulate interest in the society and in creative writing, a gold medal is awarded at Commencement time to the freshman who has written the best essay. Literary efforts of the members are published quarterly in The Rectangle, the fraternity's official magazine. The local chapter has been represented in this and other publications during the year. Marion Marsh, Mrs. Norwood, Mrs. Lon Graf, Mrs. B. K. Baker, Miss Grace Tear. Hazel Dit-loff and Betty Pancake have had work recognized. Three plays written by Phi Alpha Chapter members have been presented on the college stage. Anna Best Joder's one-act farce. The Decimal Point. was given as Sigma Tau Delta's annual convocation program, and her tragedy, The Shadow, won second place for Peru High School in the M. I. N. K. Dramatic Contest. In March the college Dramatic Club presented In the Shadow of a Rock. written by E. P. Conkle. a Peruvian who is achieving nation-wide fame as a playwright. Phi Alpha Chapter has a very creditable number of other members who have become outstanding figures in their fields. The following poem was written by one of the society's best-loved members, Miss Esther Ann Clark, and has been set to music by another member, Evelyn Brecht. The words were inspired by a particular friend, but Sigma Tau Delta has adopted them as the perfect expression of its spirit of fellowship. BY THE WAY Side by side we walked together For a while.

Sigma Tau Delta is a national English fraternity aiming to promote the mastery of written expression. to stimulate worth-while reading, and to foster a spirit of fellowship among men and women specializing in English. In order to become an active member of Sigma Tau Delta a student must major in English, maintain high scholastic standing in all subjects, and publish a specified number of words in student newspapers or elsewhere. The society is an outgrowth of the English Club at Dakota Wesleyan University, Mitchell, South Dakota. Plans worked out for the local group there met the approval of heads of English departments in other institutions, and resulted in the nationalization of the order under its present name, in 1924. There are more than seventy chapters in the United States. The preliminary work of organizing was done by Professor J. Q. Owen, who is now executive secretary, with offices at Wayne. Nebraska. Phi Alpha Chapter was organized at Peru State Teachers College by Professor E. C. Beck in 1926. It was at that time the only national fraternity on the campus, and is still one of the most active. Dr. Beck is now at Central State Teachers College. Mt. Pleasant. Michigan, and is making a study of the lumber-jack ballads of the Michigan shanty-boys.' In a visit to Peru last fall he entertained the student body with some samples from his collection. Sigma Tau Delta has monthly meetings, each based upon some phase of literature. The Christmas meeting is always devoted to the reading of original contributions by the members. This year the Freshman Scribblers were Christmas guests.

Adviser The first organization in Peru holds a history rich in memories and traditions. The Philomathean Literary Society was organized soon after the establishment of the school as a state institution and has continued active down to the present time. Its founding was due in a large measure to Perry M. Martin, one of the school's first instructors, and Wilson E. Majors, a student. Wilson E. Majors then became the first president. When organized the society had twenty members representing the best talent of the new school. In 1870 when G. E. Howard, later Dr. Howard of the state university, was president, the society was incorporated under the laws of Nebraska. This charter now hangs in the faculty room and furnishes one of the bits of atmosphere that makes traditions for the school. Philomathean is probably the oldest society of its nature in the state. Philomathean is defined as meaning lovers of learning. and the group has clung to its high ideals of learning by expanding into every field of intellectual activity which is popular. At the time of its inception the society filled a large place in the student's education now taken by the curriculum and other activities.

Adviser Five years after the Philomathean Literary Society was established coincidentally with the school a rival society was organized, the Everetts. To enable the student to learn how to express himself in public, and to give the listeners something both interesting and valuable was the original aim of the initiators of the society. The competitive spirit first given voice in debates between these two societies has continued through the years. This rivalry, however, has never been an antagonistic one. and this year, as last, the members of both united in a Philo-Ever-ett dance in the high school auditorium. The original activities of music, dramatics and debate have through the progress of the school become centered in the various departments and the fraternities. Therefore, the society now attempts to fill the position of a social organization. Carrying out the society's present aims of work, play and study, several unusual programs have filled the Thursday night meetings. A most enjoyable, humorous debate and a broadcast given by the new members are especially worthy of mention. General programs by talented students and faculty members have proved most satisfactory. Peek's Peaksters assisted by other Everett members arranged a very successful convocation program. Eighteen new members have been received as Everetts during this year. Sixty-three years of such activity as has been shown in the endeavors of the Everett Literary Society can be boasted by few societies in western colleges. 86 ny of ny he ns. be on in- ee, he jse of Philomathean Literary Society Philomathean has many times in her history made contributions to the school. The Philo rock, which adds such delightful atmosphere to the school, is an example. This rock was brought to the campus and dedicated in May, 1911, to mark the site of the first graduation exercises of the normal school in 1870. when two students received diplomas. In 1928 J. D. Graves of Poru presented to the organization the quill pen which was used by the governor of Nebraska in signing the bill which transformed Peru from a private to a public school. This pen is now on display in the administration office. Also in 1928 the society received the money for the Liberty Loan bonds which it had purchased during the war, and part of this money was put into a perpetual student loan fund, to which contributions have since been mode. Money was also given to make the final payment on the electric bell system which is now in use. Many of the original purposes of Philo are being filled by the newer organizations—dramatic, musical and forensic. It is believed, however, that a literary society still has a place and a program to present. The social functions have expanded during recent years as others of the activities have declined, thus filling a neod for more social life. This year a dance was held jointly with the Everett Literary Society. The Philo convocation program this year was notable. It was a review of the different activities of the group, as represented by the various talents of the members. The success of the society throughout the year has been due in a great part to the untiring efforts of the adviser, Miss Grace M. Petersen, who has given advice without making it mandatory that the society accept as final her opinion. PASCO H. RAILSBACK SANDIN SHOEMAKER STEPHENSON TRIMBLE M.

KNAPP KUHL lorimor McClellan D. MAYSTRICK E. MAYSTRICK MORT NOA Philoma+hean Literary Society Debates, largely impromptu, were a large item on the literary menu. Papers on any number of various subjects were written by the members and were read at the meetings—while some other member held the lamp to make the reading easier. An old melodeon was donated to the society and became its first musical instrument. The first meeting room was so small that it became the object of humorous remarks. Under President Crabtree the society obtained a permanent room on the third floor of the old Normal Hall, which has been replaced by the new science building. The organization now meets bi-monthly in the high school auditorium of the T. J. Majors Training School. The object of Philo has been to develop the particular talents of its members by giving them an opportunity to participate in the programs, and a history of Philo programs is a history of talented productions. The programs have always responded to the times, dealing with current happenings. Today, the usual entertainment at the meetings consists of music, speeches, and a social discussion. The typical Philomathean is neither a grind nor a dig nor a frivolous butterfly. but is one who cares for both intellectual and social interests. Philo is proud to number in her ranks many men and women who have gained places of prominence in the field of education: and many of the successful lawyers and doctors of the state were at one time active Philomatheans. Among the outstanding Philo members might be mentioned the late Hon. T. J. Majors and Wilson E. Majors: C. Ray Gates: M. C. Lefler, superintendent of the Lincoln schools: J. W. Crabtree, one time president of the school and now of the National Educational Association: E. L. Rouse and V. E. Chatelain. There is also a number of the present faculty who are members. THE 19 3 4 PERUVIAN Organizations of Peru A large chapter in the history of Peru Teachers College would necessarily be devoted to its organizations, for they are. and have been from the very beginning, an integral part of the life of the collece. The destinies of the students have been determined just as surely, if not in as great a degree, by the training they have received in these organizations as by their more strictly academic work. The shifting fortunes of these groups of people with like interests have woven many bright spots into the fabric of the school's history. Literary societies played the largest part in the early history of the school. Philomathean being organized soon after the opening of the school, and Everett in 1872. These organizations have continued active down to the present. At times, however, other literary societies have been in existence also. For example, two were organized in 1893—the Wellingtonian and the State Normal Junior. The Christian organizations appeared on the scene quite early. The establishment of a branch of the Young Wen's Christian Association in 1886 was followed a year later by the founding of a Young Women's Christian Association. In 1906 the College Catholic Association, then the Normal Catholic Association, was brought into being by a group of Catholic students, directed by faculty members. At one time, also, an Episcopal Guild was numbered among campus societies. In the middle period of the school's history debating societies were prominent, and a zeal was displayed for the forensic art which is hardly understandable today. In the late nineties two societies were formed. These met rcgu'arly for discussions. The one for the young women was called the Athenian, that for the young men the Ciceronian. The Webster debating society was organized shortly after the War. as the result of a revival of interest in debating. The Dramatic Club, organized in 1908. has proved its worth and is now one of the most prominent organizations on the campus, a tremendous amount of work being done by members superabounding in enthusiasm. A movement is now afoot for the securing of a branch of a national dramatics organization to further promote the work in drama. Musical organizations of some kind have always existed, but because of the nature of the wprk, they have always varied greatly. An interest has recently been stimulated in obtaining for the music students a more permanent and professional organization. Athletic organizations are much like musical groups in that the clubs formed are usually rather ephemeral. A unified Athletic Association was established, however, with the awakened interest in athletics after the beginning of the century. The present organizations, the W. A. A., dating from 1924, and the P club, Phi Lambda Alpha, dating from 1920, are well established and may be called permanent because of their inclusive interests. The Girls' Club came into existence in 1919 and the Men's Club was called into being soon after. They are now the means of carrying forward a variety of interests in connection with the general student life. The advent of the organizations which are more strictly departmental and which have national affiliations is relatively recent. Some of them, though, had previously existed os local organizations, under a different name. Sigma Tau Delta, the English fraternity, became the first national group on the campus, in 1926, due largely to the efforts of Professor Beck. The latest addition was Lambda Delta Lambda. Physical Science fraternity, which received its charter last summer. Because of high national qualifications and the small number of people eligible for membership the activities of some of the departmental honor societies have been suspended. Alpha Erudito is an organization not readily classified. It came into existence in 1929 and is open only to those students who upon graduation from high school have received Normal Board Scholarships. The Freshman Clubs were conceived a few years ago for the purpose of providing a mutually interesting and profitable activity in a congenial grouo for each freshmen. Some of these activities prepare the way for membership in other organizations. Purely social groups have never found a lasting place in the activities of the students, though most of the clubs and societies perform social functions in addition to their othor activities. Many are the groups which were once in existence, but now have nearly been forgotten. Some of them served a need which was merely temporary, thon passed on; others died of sheer inertia. Such groups as the Deutscher Verein. Agricultural Society, Symphony Club. Mandolin Club. Camera Club, the Scientific Society, and the Health and Efficiency Club served their purpose then faded from the campus picture. No organization can in Peru live a charmed life; it must fill a need and prove its worth. 91 Ayres Barnts Bushier Covey Clements Cool Oonnor Ehmen Engblom Foster Gewocle Gibbs Harney Johnson E.

It is a local organization to which only possessors of Nebraska State Normal 8oard Scholarships are eligible. Each year its membership increases. The twofold purpose of the society is to encourage maintenance of high scholastic achievement in college among those who have been outstanding students in high school, and to encourage those who find it impossible to keep up the same relative ranking in college. A small program of the activities of the year was given to each member at the first meeting. The central idea of the entertainment at these meetings was embodied in the letters A. E. F. These symbols stand for aim, effort and future. To indicate the aim toward which each person should put forth his greatest effort to attain a successful future was the purpose of the various talks, musical numbers and other activities of the year. Alpha Erudito affords an opportunity for social life and a study of educational activities, especially for those underclassmen who are not yet eligible to membership in a major fraternity. Members of Alpha Erudito have been outstanding in all campus activities. During its short life of five years two of its number have been selected by Kappa Delta Pi as the outstanding freshmen for that year and five have been elected representative students. Mr. S. L. Clements succeeded Mrs. Marybelle Norwood, the first sponsor of the organization. His interest in each individual member has done much to keep the flag of the organization flying. J Coionei T. J. Majors, who as a member of the first Nebraska legislature, 1867, began his never-ending activities for Peru and education throughout this state. %• • ★ College Orchestra The College symphony has launched out on another successful year. Making an early beginning these musicians have made several convocation performances. The organization assisted in this way when the College was host to the State Normal Board. A Sunday evening appearance at the Methodist Church gave the orchestra the opportunity to make a very creditable performance of Beethoven’s First Symphony. ‘This year brought back something which has not been tried for several years. The entire orchestra journeyed to Nebraska City and gave a Sunday evening performance at the Methodist Church. Selections from the old masters woro used, supplemented with numbers by the string quartet, a violin soloist and the violin' quartot. The spring concert, now becoming an annual event, took place the first week in May. In arranging this program. Professor Jindra selected a variety of compositions from classic favorites by the old masters to catchy, modern arrangements. The last number on this performance was one of the most unusual numbers ever attempted by the orchestra. At first are heard faint snatches of the familiar tune Dixie : then it is repeated in the aboriginal. Next it becomes a minuet. The piccolo and drum follow showing that Dixie has reached the year 1775. It takes on the rhythmical flow of a valse lento, disguises itself as a slow drag in rag time and finally bursts forth as grand opera in all the pomp and glory of a Tannhauser. The program was as follows: Overture Barber of Seville...................................Rossini G Minor Symphony...................................W. A. Mozart Allegro nolto Minuotto Allegro assai Intermission Ballet Music from Faust.......................................Gounod Liebestraume No. Ill...........................................Liszt Violin Solo . .

Lake THE 19 34 PERUVIAN College Band What power lies in the rise and fall of the baton of Victor H. Jindra! It has lifted the College Band and Orchestra to the position of concert groups, building and developing them with each year of the service he has given since coming to the music department in 1923. Having been a student of Carl Fredrick Steckelberg, Max Fischel and Victor Kuzdo. Professor Jindra is an artist on the violin, and his hand directs the bow of many a pupil in the training school as well as the college proper. But it is something called personality which lies behind the baton that has made Professor Jindra so beloved in Peru. 1934 has seen the fulfilment of Professor Jindra's desire that the College Band might become a concert group. 'Pep work having been left entirely to the Pep Band, study and practice have been devoted to the highest type of military works and symphonic selections. One has only to tako down old PERUVIANS and turn to the Music section to discover the growth of the band as a college organization, soe the balance in instrumentation that has been achieved since those first days of only horns.” A complete program of selections comprising the concert can more than any explanation indicate the real quality of tho 1934 College Band.

Holt Steel, the director of this group, has exerted great effort and devoted much time to its growth and improvement since his coming to Peru in 1928. Professor Steele’s talent lies not alone in the directing field, for he is an excellent soloist furnishing numerous convocation and other programs. He has been a member and director of the Peru Geron, a vocal octette of mixed voices which has assisted the chorus. Students are taught vocal music is a line from the 1895 Peru Bulletin, but it is to Perry M. Martin that Dr. McKenzie gives credit for organizing the first singing class amongst the students of Peru a few years later. The Peru chorus was established as the vocal representative of Peru State Teachers College in 1930. It has grown from a small body of eighteen conscientious students, who were willing to choose singing as their sizo. Its size has grown in direct proportion to its quality and balanced talcing its place among the finest college groups in the state. Concerts have been given in many Nebraska and Iowa towns by the chorus and subsidiary groups, and each year return engagements as well as several new ones are filled. Seraphic Song by Anton Rubenstein with violin and piano accompaniment has been included on the chorus concert program for the past two years. The Sleigh by Kountz has proved most popular as has Lavouski’s Hospodi Pomilui as well as have several Latin sacred numbers by Palestrina. The chorus has made a specialty of very unusual arrangements of Negro spirituals; My Lord What a Morning, Deep River. Swing Low Sweet Chariot. Listen to the Lambs and Dig My Grave. Many of the traditional and old favorite songs of the ages are included in the chorus repertoire, selections from Brahms and Beethoven being given an important place, as the Junita. Annie Laurie.

Not only Is It the smallest but the youngest, too, having come Into being in October, 1933. when it played for the Woman's Club. After this appearance the members felt it worthwhile to continue practices together regularly, and the quartet has become one of the most up and coming organizations on the campus. During the year it has played for the churches of Peru, the Kiwanis Club, the District American Legion Convention, campus activities, including the Sigma Tau Delta banquet, the athletic banquet, fraternity meetings, convocation and a Sunday dormitory recital with the Geron. It has co-operated with the Dramatic Club, furnishing all the period music for In the Shadow of a Rock. and the Christmas Guest Night plays. This spring it accompanied the Dramatic Club on out-of-town trips to Julian and Pawnee City. The College Orchestra concert at Nebraska City was supplemented by this group. All of its entertaining was not done assisting others, for the quartet played scvoral selections at Rockport, Missouri, at Auburn for the Kiwanis banquet, and Hamburg. Iowa, which made arrangements for a return engagement. Serenade by Slunicho has proved their most popular number this year. Wilma Silence, who plays third violin in the group, presented her Senior recital in April, while Ruth Naviaux and Eunice Burbridge both gave their Junior recitals in March. During their entire college careers all four girls have been most active in the musical field, three of them playing other instruments than the violin. Just fifty minutes after six in the morning seems an unusual time for practice. but that is the regular period selected by the group. The girls of the quartet have two souvenirs in particular of the year's work, a recording made by Mr. Kettering of Doane. and the memory of one broadcast from KMA. RUTH NAVIAUX .

Sponsoring the M. I. N. K. Dramatic Contest the club has made its reputation more than statewide. Each year a larger number of towns compete in the numerous divisions, and work of a higher quality is entered by the high schools from Missouri. Iowa. Nebraska, and Kansas. Christmas guest night did much to arouse the true holiday spirit. To develop the most varied arts which make up true drama the purpose of each meeting, and to encourage creative ability an original one-act play contest was sponsored. As a climax to the year's activities came the annual luncheon-dance. Real life is offered anyone who. endowed with the mysterious gift of one element of drama, gains admittance to this club. Having an inestimable heritage. Peru Dramatic Club has upheld its traditions in 1933-1934 and turns with expectancy to meet a new year, knowing that the future dawns rich with opportunity to add to the glories already entered in its name. THE POOR LITTLE RICH GIRL Peru Dramatic Club D. J. NABORS Peru Dramatic Club D. J. Nabors has set the goal of Peru Dramatic Club higher than ever before. Since his coming to this campus in 1931. no production has seemed too difficult for mastery under his direction. With him leading the dramatic endeavors Peru is placing its banner on the top-most peak. Ever since that first play, Land of the Heart's Desire,” thrilled the Peru audience in 1908, the silver and black colors of the Peru Dramatic Club have been flying over this school. The silver has a double significance this year for 1933 marks the 25th anniversary of the organization. Daisy B. Nettleton Taylor directed that first group of Nebraska college students that decided the play is the thing, and organized to study and present dramatic productions. 1933-1934 has been a greater, harmonizing note in the traditions which envelop the club.

Peru, Nebraska, have added a new chapter to the history of drama in Peru. Drama is a composite thing. A play utilizes divergent talented types—costumers, designers, carpenters. electricians, make-up artists, and actors. Peru Dramatic Club, recognizing that acting is not the whole of drama, trains its members in the expression of all of their abilities that each individual may have the satisfaction of having produced something worthwhile. m GOLD IN THE HILLS an Peru, stings rising rdone ciety. ibility 1911 been cam- class jle of ouble n the rcent, pular and arger sates Meet “The Normal Courier, initial publication of the college, goes to press — 1892 — lived: :ased 0 ■njrd PUBLICATIONS THE 19 3 4 PERUVIAN DEBATE Other activities have had their beginnings, but debate has been always with Peru. The literary societies found debating one of the best entertainments at their meetings and argued the pro and con of numerous subjects. About 1896 several enterprising oung men organized the Ciceronian Debating Society, and in 1899, not to be outdone y the men, the ladies of Nebraska State Normal School organized the Athenian Society. In this same year George N. Porter called some boys together to discuss the advisability of securing a debate with the State Normal School at Emporia, Kansas, and by 1911 four annual intercollegiate wrangles were entered. Although the societies have not been in existence for several years and debate is not the only important activity of the campus, it is still in the limelight. The debate squad closed the 1934 season with a fifty per cent rating in the class A State Debate Tournament, March 10. This tournament climaxed a full schedule of debates for the squad. Thirty-eight intercollegiate debates were held this year, double the number of last year and more than ever before held in one season. As is now the common custom among colleges, the debates, except those held in the state tournament, were not judged, attention being concentrated by the debaters upon winning popular support. The season opened with attendance of the Marysville one-day invitation meet, and soon after this Marysville and Morningside were debated at Peru. One of the larger events of the season was a four-day trip into Missouri and Kansas, during which debates were held with six schools. Chadron was then entertained here. The State Forensic Meet was held at Hastings. The Pi Kappa Delta question was discussed exclusively during the season—Resolved: That the powers of the president of the United States should be substantially increased as a settled policy. ★ First Row McConn Nabors Plucknott Second Row Ruchsdoshel Shumard 102 Waldo ger iior red :les rm hat rhe )rld pus or-; a Pedag logian The College Newspaper Those who became heir to the Pedagogian in 1933 proved no less capable and dependable than staffs of the past. Hours of collecting, checking copy, proof reading, trips down the hill to the print shop, of thinking over headlines and page make-up all pass behind the scenes. The readers never know, but these tasks come wrapped up with the editorship of any publication. Wilma James, as the 1933-1934 editor, has not for one moment relaxed her grip. The Pedagogian has noticeably achieved progress as a reliable, worthwhile student organization in its constant endeavors to mirror both curricular and extra-curricular college life; to record college activities; to report college news; to feature alumni, student and faculty achievements; and to afford avenues of expression to those of journalistic leanings. Faculty members edited the first publications, but the Pedagogian of today is an expression of student ideas and contributions. The who, when, and where of Peru is spread abroad through its pages. Prize stories and poems from the Sigma Tau Delta Christmas program furnished much of the reading in a December edition. Peru Dramatic Club provided copy for the edition preceding the M. I. N. K. Dramatic Contest. Book week found recognition in another and Epsilon Pi Tau recorded its activities and history in a fourth. Every editorial published this year was pertinent to the life and happenings of the week. Art Lamebrain gave the inside dope on many who might have got by with much had he not always been a keen observer and an excellent listener. Two columns given over to a training school staff gave the high school and grades an opportunity to make known their achievements in athletics, dramatics, and music and to chronicle their social activities of the year. Balance in reading matter has been an aim of the 1933-1934 Pedagogian. The Bobcat on the editorial page stands on the top of a hill, tense, prepared, sending forth his far-reaching cry, a true emblem of the Pedagogian and its dissemination of Peru news to high schools, colleges and alumni throughout the state.

TYLER.........................................Adviser Business Manager Make-up Editor The school grew, and there came a time when the students who attended desired some record of the society meetings, debates, campus life and a publishing of articles inspirational to the prospective teacher and alumni in the field. That desire taking form in the minds of Peruvians became a reality in The Normal School Courier, 1892. That forerunner of the newspaper was more nearly a magazine as was its successor, The Normal School Messenger, 1898. The best in literature from the campus and the world found its way into the pages of these little magazines, and the records of the campus activities show that Peruvians were truly enjoying themselves. The Normal School Journal came to life in 1905, only to give way to The Nor-malite the following year. Though still in magazine form and published only once a month until 1915, when it achieved the size and form of a newspaper, the Normalite gives readers a distinct picture of Peru athletics, organizations, music, debates, social life until 1921, when the changing of the school from a normal to a state teachers college necessitated another name. The Peru Pedagogian most aptly named proved its worthy successor. Certain persons must ever be indelibly linked with these campus records. T. L. Van Vleet was editor of the 1892 Normal Courier with James E. Delzell and James H. Hayes as business managers, and J. A. Beattie edited the State Normal School Messenger of 1898. J. L. Akers, J. E. Morgan, John Hanna, Bert Swenson, Delzells, and D. H. Weber labored to publish the first Normalites. When the name became Pedagogian Paul Wilcox headed the staff.

SCHNEIDER DWIGHT WALDO LEWIS THOMPSON LOIS MAY Weaving the woof of the past with the warp of the present the 1934 PERUVIAN has throughout its pages looked toward the future. The staff has caught the spirit that has dominated Peru through its sixty-seven years of progress, and herein each in his own sphere passes it on to you. With this as a background may you feel again the thrill of that Homecoming football game, the excitement of that winning Bobcat basket, laugh again at the plays, sports reviews, revel in a college dance, see those personalities who came and went across these hills, and live aoain this college year as you turn the paqes of the 1934 PERUVIAN. j F!r t Row THOMPSON WALDO SPEEDIE Second Row MILLER ROHRS WARE 55 107 THE 19 3 4 PERUVIAN Peruvian THE STAFF M.

One may easily learn the historical data concerning our school, stated as bare facts, but only by conscious, laborious effort can he learn the real significance of Peru as it may be read into these facts by the story of the efforts of those who have labored to make this school a worthwhile institution. A history of our school as it should be would be the story of different personalities interwoven into one grand pattern. The facts may only be interpreted in such a way. Institutions, however great, are not of themselves something; institutions do not have ideals and aspirations, hopes and fears: these exist only in the minds of the people who compose them. To say that J. M. McKenzie was the first principal of the school is little; to know his ideas and ideals as a Christian gentleman is to understand the early life of the school. It is impossible, or at least inaccurate, to assign the founding of our school to any particular person. Peru is the result of the labors of many, of the strivings of a group, not of an individual. But of course some figured more prominently than others, and the story hinges upon thorn. Tho settlement of Peru began about 1855, tho year aftor the organization of Nebraska as a territory. It grew up as the result of the establishment of a boat landing, and was named Peru by some settlers from Peru. Illinois. It was one of the earliest towns in the territory, and it grew rather rapidly, soon becoming a thriving little center of trade. For it served in trade an increasing number of people, having access to the river transportation of tho days. It goes without saying that lifo in tho frontier town was crude, but some of the far-seeing and progressive spirits were looking toward the future, and as early as I860 a charter was granted by the territorial legislature for the establishment of a school of college grade in Peru. Time passed, however, and for five years tho soed which was to bo tho college lay dormant. Then the seed began to sprout; through a series of incidents an interest in a school was renewed. Reverend Hiram Burch, pastor of the Methodist Church in Peru, came to Major William Daily and asked for a subscription to a fund for a new church building. Previously, in 1862, Mr. J. M. McKenzie, of Upper Iowa University, had come to Nebraska with the ambition of establishing an institution of higher learning; he had. by great effort, begun an academy in Pawnee City and was enjoying some degree of success. Major Daily was the Indian agent for a tribe of Otoes west of Pawnee City, and he frequently visited the academy on his trips to and from the agoncy. He thus became interested in establishing such a school in Peru. Therefore, when Reverend Burch solicited his aid for the church building, ho refused, saying that he would gladly contribute to a school fund instead—adding that the school could be used for church purposes. He was active in interesting others in the idea, and finally it gained a sufficient number of converts, including Reverend Burch, and a board of trustees was appointed to carry forward the work of raising funds and beginning tho construction. It was planned to establish the school and offor it to the Methodist conference as a seminary. As a suitable location was needed, Dr. J. F. Neal. Reverend Burch, and Mrs. C. B. McKenzie donated sixty acres of land to the trustees; Major Daily also contributed indirectly. It was planned to erect a three-story building of brick and stone, and as a site the top of the hill where the Mount Vernon Dormitory now stands was chosen. The cornerstone for tho building was laid in tho spring of 1866, when eight thousand dollars had been secured by the trustees. There was nothing inviting or hospitable about the site of the school then. The hills were covered with shrubbery, with only here and there an occasional tree, and over all wild life was abundant. The true beauty of the location was not appreciated until lator. The work of the building proceeded slowly for various reasons. There was some difficulty encountered in collecting the subscriptions. Suitable materials for the erection of a large building were difficult to secure. When cold weather set in late in the fall, the difficulties were multiplied, but the work continued. Meanwhile, because of the enthusiasm, the educational work had begun. Mr. J. M. McKenzie was elected principal and Mrs. C. B. McKenzie preceptress, and the first term began late in August, 1866. 125 Peak's Peaksters Foster, Bole, Cross, Novak, Nicholls, Peek, Ashton, Pace Garner, Kingsolver May Fete Attendants, 1933 Edna Maystrlck as the Poor Little Rich Girl,' and Dorothy Wiebe, her mother Coons from W.

Caviness, 1922-1923. Since August of 1923, W. R. Pate has held the office of president. Temporary arrangements have been made at times in the presidency. Each of these men has contributed his part toward making the school what it is. A desirable tendency may be noted in the trend toward a longer period in office for the president. This makes possible the carrying forward of a consistent educational policy. The growth of the school has not been a steady and uninterrupted one. There have been periods of hard times for the school as well as for society in general, but each period of hardship has been succeeded by a spurt upward—beyond any previous achievement of the school. The periods of hardship may easily be discerned in any survey of the school's publications, just as the history of a tree may be read in its annual rings. The story of the growth of the school may also be read in the increase in the amount of its equipment, from one poorly furnished building to the present group of modern and attractive buildings. The original structure was further conditioned by an appropriation of ten thousand dollars in 1869, but the need was soon felt for more classroom space. Accordingly, the money was appropriated, the work begun, and the new four-story building, which came to be known as Old Normal Hall, was completed and dedicated in 1873. It occupied the space that the new science building now occupies. Later, in 1885, it was enlarged, a wing being added where the auditorium now stands. This was followed in 1887 by the erection of a frame library. This arrangement sufficed in most respects for a decade: then the original building was destroyed by fire, and was replaced the same year by the Mount Vernon Dormitory. About 1900 began the steady growth which has continued ever since. In 1901 the athletic field and greenhouse were added to the school's equipment. A critical point in the school's history came in 1903, when there was discussion as to whether the school should be maintained. The securing of an appropriation for a new chapel and gymnasium building was the deciding point. The new building was dedicated in 1905. Meanwhile work was also in progress on a new library building, which was completed in 1906. The old library was doubled in size, brick veneered, and equipped as a science building. Then the need was felt for a new administration building, and in 1909 the appropriation was secured. Two years later the present administration building was completed. In 1915 plans were made for the T. J. Majors building; this was completed in 1917. In the early part of the last decade the present auditorium was constructed on the site of tho south wing of Old Normal Hall. The chapel and gymnasium building was remodeled so that it could be devoted largely to athletics. Two of the more recent and finest buildings were completed in 1929— the science building, on the site of Old Normal Hall. and the girls' dormitory, named for Eliza Morgan, whose services as preceptress in the school's early history will long bo remembered. Some important matters in the growth of the school's scope of activities and status in the educational world should be observed. As early as 1873 the summor school sessions wero begun—to accommodate those who could not attend the regular term. There has been considerable shifting in the lengths of the school's terms at times, however. In 1915 the school was admitted to membership in tho North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools, with the status of a teacher training institution, and in 1932 it was transferred from this status to that of a regular college. One of the major events in the history of the school took placo in 1922. At this time, by act of the stato legislature. Peru Normal School became the Peru Teachers College, with the right of issuing the A. B. degree in education—in addition to the one and two-year certificates. Traditions, mighty as the hills among which they were builded, are the heritage of all who go out from Peru. To uphold these is their privilege. To instill in your minds a solemn reverence for them is the purpose of this chronicle of a year's activities and its background. 127 Sixty-Seven Years at Peru 1867-1934 in a building previously used as a saloon, now standing Just south of the present Post Office. Later classes were also held in a private home, which stands just across the street north of Peterson’s studio. The records give the average attendance for the fall term as about thirty. When the fall term was completed, the work on the new building had progressed far enough for classes to be held there: so the winter term began in January in the building on the hill. The hardships suffered by the pupils, many of whom lived in the school building, were many, and Mr. McKenzie later spoke of them as martyrs to the cause of education! While the spring term was in progress the Methodist Church held its annual conference, at Omaha, and tho new, school was offered to it with all its land and property. But after considerable discussion the conference decided not to accept the school as its charge. This left the trustees and all interested in the school wondering and worrying as to its fate, for it could hardly hope to survive without aid. The outcome was that it was decided to turn the project over to the state legislature at its first session, with the understanding that it would become the state university. Colonel T. J. Majors and Major Daily were elected to represent the county in the first legislature, and through their efforts, and the efforts of others, the school was accepted—but as a normal school, for it was judged wiser to place the state university at Lincoln, than in a small village. The bill was introduced by Colonel Majors and Major Daily and was approved on June 20. Three thousand dollars were appropriated to complete tho building and begin the normal school operations. T. J. Majors became the special protector of the school throughout his long career as a legislator. A board of education was appointed by the state to take charge of affairs, and much credit is given by all who write of Peru history to its board of education. In early years the personnel of the board was almost entirely local, and if this article were intended as a tribute, much could bo said of the labors of such people as D. C. Cole. At tho time it was established there were but approximately twenty normal schools in the United States, and there were but two west of the Missouri River. For thirty-eight years Peru was the only normal school in the state, Kearney Normal being established in 1905 and Wayne and Chadron since. Twenty sections of land were given the new school by the first state legislature as an endowment, the land being located near the capital. During the summer months the building was finished and furnished by means of the three thousand dollar appropriation—plus another thousand dollars raised by the public spirited citizens. The fall term began in October, with thirty-two pupils enrolled in the normal school proper. It began with a teaching staff of just two people: in fact Mr. J. M. McKenzie and Mrs. C. B. McKenzie were not only the instructors, but the janitor and preceptress as well. A young man from Michigan, Perry M. Martin, soon was employed to help, however. The increase in size of the school's staff from these educational pioneers to the present faculty is indicative of the growth of the school. When it opened, the school's curriculum was necessarily very limited and extra-curricular activities wore not yet general. Tho subjects studied were constrained to what was held in that day to be substantial material. The development of the present curriculum has come about haltingly but gradually, and would occupy considerable space in any detailed history of the school. Much might be said of the records which have been left of early student life. Wealth was never in evidence, and the students were naturally earnest in their desire for education. The democratic spirit which is the precious heritage of the campus today was brought into being. Regulations were extremely strict, as befitted the times and occasion, but who can say that the life of the students was dull? The first graduation exercises of the new school were held in the spring of 1870, when two students. George Elliott Howard, later Dr. Howard, and Miss Annie Morehead, later Mrs. Annie Morehead Joy, completed the normal course. The exercises were held in the open, in a grove of small oak trees. The site of these exercises is now marked on the campus by the Philo rock. These first graduates proved the worth of the school. Soon after this Mr. McKenzie resolved to resign his position because of a chanco for advancement, and the trustees began searching for a successor. Tho terms in office of the men who have held the chief position of responsibility in the school, stated as mere dates, are unattractive, but they form the foundation upon which a real knowledge of the school's history may be built.

You'd yawn too if you had to look at what he does day after day, year after year. Peru collegians are queer, almost as queer as Peru faculty. Licking a paw he remarked, Things don't change. Why, back in 1913 somebody asked in the 'Normalite' how many hours of credit one got for attending the Mount Vernon lectures. You should read the poetry of 1910 —and with an aesthetic sigh he caught a tear on the tip of his tongue and began, 'May I print a kiss upon your lips? She nodded her sweet permission, So they went to press, And I rather guess They printed a whole edition.'— Just like they do on that bench by my cage today. Again the Bobcat flicked his ear. There must be something bothering him—something in that ear. Scratching it thoughtfully he suddenly thrust his paw inside and brought forth a book all bound in Blue and White—such a huge book and such a little ear; but, oh, what it must have heard!
