Peru State College - Peruvian Yearbook (Peru, NE)

Text from Pages 1 - 158 of the 1938 volume:

Throughout the following pages is portrayed an informal record of the school year 1937-38. If this book reflects the real spirit of the school, if it portrays the year's activities, and if it preserves Peru in your memories, then it will have achieved its purpose. We present you the school year of 1937-38 in six books: BOOK ONE...............THE FACULTY BOOK TWO...............THE CLASSES BOOK THREE - - THE TRAINING SCHOOL BOOK FOUR.................ACTIVITIES BOOK FIVE.....................SPORTS BOOK SIX...............CAMPUS LIFE f f | Jn emonam RALPHA RANDOLPH DEDICATION To Coach Glen Gilkeson, a real Bobcat, a sportsman, and because he is one of the best-liked men on the campus, we dedicate this, the 1938 PERUVIAN. ® The 12:50 bell brings dozens of students Science Hall across the campus to the 9 Noon brings the coeds to lunch in Mount Vernon Dining Hall ® Students bask in the sun near the entrance to the Science Hall © The lawn west of the dorm'' is popular with almost everyone ® Looking up the west wall of the gym « FACULTY ADOPTS NEW SCHEDULE With the coming of the fall term came a new schedule of classes for Peru students. Last spring a faculty committee devised plans for changing the existing hours of class lectures, convocations, and float periods. Heretofore the classes which met in the morning started at fifty minutes after the hour, and convocation was held three times a week. The purpose of the new schedule was to make convocation programs longer and hence better, and to improve the use of the float periods. This was accomplished by reducing the number of convocations per week to two, and by placing float periods during hours of the day when the music organizations could better utilize the time. Headlining the social activities of the faculty have been their informal parties. It was in these exclusive parties that our instructors found opportunity to express themselves on something other than pure subject matter. On several occasions old-fashioned square dances and the Big Apple held their attention for many hours. Several members of the faculty have distinguished themselves by their writings and research. Dr. G. Robert Coatney, who has been doing considerable research with malaria, was appointed to a consultant's position with the U. S. Public Health Service. Dr. P. A. Maxv ell published material concerning his research on the problact-solving procedure. Additions to the faculty were Florence Martin and Robert Moore, both of the English staff, and Winston B. Thorson, v ho took the place of Frank H. Heck of the history staff. Mr. Heck is completing his research at the University of Minnesota. The professors chat while waiting for a faculty meeting to come to order. PAGE FOURTEEN THE ADMINISTRATION.... W. R.

Interspersed with the formal meetings were the social meetings, which included a Christmas party held at the home of Dr. and Mrs. Maxwell. PAGE FIFTY-EIGHT SutoriuR Taylor ) ar v X 3 «w vw| ' ruj.

Dr. John Dewey, outstanding contributor to education, was principal speaker at the convention. Randall Roberts Shafer Short R. Snydor Activities conducted annually by the local organization include bringing a Nebraska educator to the campus during Education Week. This year. Dr. Homer W.

Each spring Beta Mu entertains outstanding sophomores who are expected to be eligible for membership the ensuing year. The occasion is ordinarily a breakfast at the Dutch Oven. Other activities conducted annually by Kappa Delta Pi are the sponsoring of the inter-fraternity banquet during Commencement Week and the citation of the freshman adjudged most outstanding in scholarship and personality. May 25 of this year marks the ninth anniversary of the installation of the local chapter into the National Kappa Delta Pi organization.

Highlighted in the “heap of manuscripts written by those specializing in English are a one-act play, Entertaining Angels,” written and directed by a student member, Maria Wiencke, for the club's convocation program, and Morphine Sulphate, P.R.N.,” a playlet conceived by Miss Ruth Ahl-berg and presented over the Peru Broadcast. PAGE SIXTY SIGMA TAU DELTA “Sifting Sands,” Phi Alpha prose and poetry book issued biannually, appeared in December in a pert green and gold jacket. Contents were written by Sigma Tau Deltans and printed upon the chapter's own printing press. Three of the poems were reprinted in the “Rectangle,” national quarterly publication of Sigma Tau Delta. The spring edition of “Sifting Sands” held one of the largest lists of contributors ever used. Two initiatory banquets were held this year. The fall banquet was held November 29, with Professor Robert D. Moore as the main speaker. At the spring banquet, March 14, Allan D. May of Auburn took the club on a word tour through journalism history. Inspiration and stimulation for creative writing ejects from the fraternity's faculty members: Miss Esther Clark's poetry, Mrs. Joy Baker's writing experience and Mrs. Dunning's enthusiasm. Perhaps the greatest responsibility is accepted by sponsor Dr. George Smith whose wise counseling guides many a plot and whose fish story,” Little Mantrap,” was recognized by every member as the club's outstanding piece of literature.

Mixing brain food” and fun, the Philos” heard interesting book reviews, learned of the rituals of the Oklahoma Indians from Professor Moore, and heard of Miss Gard's days as a missionary in Japan. Hilarious games of string-around-the-nosie” were numerous at their county fair taffy pull, but the ultra-ultra” of good times was reached at the Philo-Everett barn dance which boasted of fiddles and quadrilles and faculty members as guests of honor. The efforts put forth by Miss Pearl Kenton, faculty adviser, are largely responsible for the success of the club. PAGE SIXTY- r 1 V E Beckman Formanok Hubka L. Matthews Potorson P. Benson H.

Glen Yont discussed the subject Teaching Mathematics in High School at one session and Verda Gingrich presented the proof of a geometry proposition at another. Professor C. A. Huck once spoke upon the properties of a nine point circle. Each year the club recognizes two members of the freshman class for excellence in mathematics. In 1937 this honor was awarded to Paul Knapp and Alice Mae Shimonek. For the 1938 winner, the club plans to inaugurate a new system, that of giving honorary pins to the freshman class winners. First semester officers were Evaline West, president; Louis Pascal, vice president; Verda Gingrich, secretary-treasurer.

Furthering the cause of dramatics, members wrote a constitution and a set of by-laws for the newly organized Dramatic Club, tutored its casts in the art of acting, directed plays for presentation at its meetings, and aided in the many activities attempted by the Dramatic Club.

Desiring the proper conference yumph, committees secured inspirational Dr. Harold Bosley, of the Iowa State Teachers College faculty, at Cedar Falls, Iowa, for the main speaker. Dr. Bosley was formerly a Peru student and is now active in the theology field. Commission meetings were held to exchange campus problems and personal viewpoints. The evenings were topped off with fun night tactics, dancing and Estes Banquet. The original Christmas Pageant presented every year at convocation was sponsored again by the Y.W.C.A. using an entire girl-cast. The annual Chinese Christmas sale and a chili supper were held to raise the treasurer's report. Creative leisure groups planned a timebudgeting week for the ’overworked'' college girl and pursued hobby habits in finger painting, knitting and leisure reading. When glimpses of cabinet members flitted across mob scenes'' in the Estes movie shown at a joint meeting, feverish unrest was created among members of the organization to attend the Rocky Mountain Student Conference held in Colorado every June. Plans were made for a record breaking delegation to represent Peru at Estes Park. fl shelf of books upon international relations, peace and religion was presented to the Peru college library.

Joining forces with the Y.W.C.fl., the Y.M. helped make the Spring Training Conference held upon this campus in March an inspirational and beneficial experience for all who attended. The association sponsored the second annual peace oratorical contest with entrance open to the entire campus. Fellowship retreats were well attended and joint meetings with the Y.W.C.fl. successfully brought a masculine and feminine approach to the vital questions of life. College professors were obtained as guest speakers, and members heard Dr. Coatney lecture upon sex. Dr. Miller on religious history, and Dr. Brown on the spirit of Christmas. Darrel Randall, Wesleyan student, spoke to both organizations upon International Relations and the Student.” Y.M.C.fl. chairmen were fortunate to persuade Mr. Randall to visit Peru upon his return from an all summer lecture tour. In the Christmas season, the Y.M. and Y.W. held a candlelight service, which was partly broadcast over the Peru hour. Featured were hymns by the Perusingers and readings by Professor Robert Moore. The cabinet received field worker Ray Kinney, who had just returned from China and obtained instruction in carrying out further activities. A Gospel Team was organized and made deputations to various surrounding communities. Each year the group sends delegates to the Rocky Mountain Student Conference, held at Estes Park, Colorado.

The club swelled its membership, increased its activities, and interested campus coeds from dormitory to residence halls. Bi-weekly Fun Nights were held to give warblers a chance to shine in the community sing programs, those with a yen for intricate dance steps an opportunity to polish the sticklers, and everyone to enjoy good fellowship while licking ice cream cones.

Girls displayed their own handiwork at the club's style show, which featured the review of the college wardrobe from sunup to starlight. In February, the quints” walked away with first prize for the outstanding infants” at the organization's Kid Party, in spite of the healthy competition from the many who attended. Baby pictures of students were flashed on a movie” screen for identification by the entire group. Monthly meetings were held to cover the business details necessary.

Under the new system, Dramatic Club members are automatically pledges to the fraternity. With the close of the summer session came the resignation of Professor D. J. Nabors, whose carefully constructed plans had skillfully guided the organization since 1931. Mr. Nabors resigned to take a position at Western State Teachers College at Ada, Oklahoma. The fall season found the dynamic Professor Robert Moore sponsoring the organization. Mr. Moore's first play directed in Peru, Through the Keyhole, played on Homecoming Day, October 16. Half a hundred hearty guffaws were recorded, due chiefly to Glema Meirs' red-blooded performance of a seventy-year-old snooper, Grandma Tierney. The night of December 10, an awed audience witnessed a peek into eternity through the presentation of Suttan Vane's fantasy, Outward Bound. A well directed cast breathed life into a group of souls lost to this world. Werner Halterman Wiencke PAGE SEVENTY-EIGHT DRAMATIC CLUB William Platenberg, in the manner of William Platenberg, drove the play along with varicolored moods ranging from white anger to chilling bewilderedness. With an eye to spring light-headedness and audience appeal, Director Moore pulled the comedy, “Spring Fever, out of the hat to be warmly applauded on April 8. Typical college characters were played by typical college characters with a resulting smash hit. Meanwhile, the Dramatic club itself had not been “twiddling. Property rooms were rejuvenated, lighting systems were improved, make-up and wardrobe rental scales were fixed. A choral reading group, under the directorship of Marie Wiencke, was instructed to chant “Congo, “The Highwayman, in professional tones. Alpha Psi Omega members donned directors' caps to present Dramatic Club members in one act plays monthly, which included, “Finger of God, “Three's a Crowd, and “Flight, a Harold Prichard original. Thusly, the Dramatic Club, evolving from toddler to a well-organized machine in the seven league boots of independence, has strode away to one of the most successful seasons in its history.

WOMEN'S ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION The Women's Athletic Association offers recreation in the form of sports to any girl on the campus. The requirement for membership is the earning of one hundred points in any sport. Sweaters are awarded to those who earn one thousand points and are selected for four varsity teams. Four major sports are offered each year: Hitpin Ball, Volley Ball, Basketball, and Baseball. Minor sports include Swimming, Hiking, Ping Pong, Tennis, Track, and Paddle Tennis. The entertainment of the Freshmen girls at the cabin early in the Fall, the annual Farmers Formal, the Cabin's Birthday Party in the spring were highlights in the year's activities. The pep-squad dressed in blue and white uniforms provided colorful entertainment during intermissions at the home basketball games.

PERUVIAN When bigger and better yearbooks are made, Peru will make them, determined PERUVIAN Editor Wolter and Business Manager McAllister, fresh from the National Scholastic Press Association Convention in Chicago. So, in October, the 1938 PERUVIAN was begun. The staff was not organized into a group of staff members each restricted to a single phase of work. There were no official titles bestowed on any staff members other than the editor and business manager. All were helpers, to do whatever task they were assigned. Dr. Ware, faculty adviser, was always behind the scenes to keep the ship on an even keel. This year's PERUVIAN did become bigger and better both in content and arrangement. The faculty section donned the ribbon of informality, photographs illustrated every campus event, basketball action shots were obtained for the first time, the advertising increased, informal layouts were designed for every page, and it was all enclosed in the first padded cover for PERUVIANS. PERUVIAN keys v ere awarded to Ruth Lytton, John Heck, James McAllister, and Frederick Wolter.

PEDAGOGIAN Cutting his journalistic teeth upon an editor's pen this year, Norman Littrell, chief of the staff producing the weekly Peru Pedagogian, took advantage of three lucky breaks. One was the arrival of Miss Florence Martin, who took her place among the faculty but devoted her energies to sponsoring the Ped which she had so often put to press when a student at Peru. The second advantage blossomed in the form of ready, willing, and able make-up editors, Bert Hall and Harold Prichard, and an eager crop of cub reporters who lived to cover” every incident before it happened. Fortune smiled a third time upon an old established factor—ingenuity in the Littrell personality. The Ped sported rocket headlines, personalities in the news, editorials which produced the desired results, and cross sections of campus opinion on a variety of subjects. fin oldster at a linotype machine once criticized this year's Pedagogian staff: Yup, he said, the finest boys I've ever known—willing to learn and willing to work.

Peru's 1937 football team was not a winning squad—yet they played a brand of football that was crowd-pleasing and Peru-pleasing. A fast brand of ball featuring a light team full of trick plays and quick, fast opening plays delighted the large crowd of rooters. Spectacular is hardly the word for the wild Peru-Wayne mix. Homecoming was spoiled by rain but proved to be the second best game of the year with Peru nosing Wesleyan 7-6. Five defeats, one tie and two victories were marked in the annals of the season, little to look back on in future years, but full of pleasant memories of fast furious playing to Peruvians of this year. Coach Gilkeson used his second team a good deal of the time—building for the future. The second team also engaged in two practice games with Tarkio, losing the first game and tying the second. Twenty men lettered on the varsity, of which five played their last game for the Blue and white at Tarkio. Those five were: Joel Punches, Bernard Barisas, El-dred Douglas, Orval Pugh and Lawrence Stark. Other lettermen were: Keith McHugh, Robert McGinley, Ross Adams, Elmon Velvick, Gilbert Purucker, John Boyer, Tom Majors, Bert Hall, Dale Bridgewater, Lester Mosley, John Greene, Leonard Greathouse, George Mort, Delbert Nelson and Wilber Shields. Shields, Greathouse, Barisas and Punches were rated on various all-state selections.

This year was pete with other schools in swimming. Gilk” is a strong believer in the system of intramurals—or a sport for ev one. He has built up Peru's athletic department to a point where his desire for sport for everyone is becoming a realization. Swimming, basketball, volley ball! hand ball, tennis, track, kitten ball, boxing, wrestling, and ping pong are now enjoyed by almost every Peru Student. Coach Stuart Bailer made history by turning out the N. I. fl. ft. championship basketball squad. Little needs to be said about Peru's five court record—the scores sj eak for themselves. But plenty should be said about the fine coaching, conditioning and leadership that the Bobcats enjoyed. Stu” has proved his right for leadership in basketball coaching circles. Joel Punches (in the middle) was chosen 1937 football captain—an honor he justly deserved. Joel, who lettered as a freshman, played four years of aggressive football for the Bobcats. m “Joe” hails from Wymore where he starred for the Zephyrs” in many games, fl fine personality made him the favorite player among squad members, while his never-give-in playing won the hearts of the fans. He was chosen on many all-state selections in both his junior and senior years. P ft G E NINETY-ONE Punchos Shields Pugh Purucker Barisas FOOTBALL—1937 PERU 0—DOANE 12 PERU 6—MARYVILLE 6 The Peru Bobcats opened the season by crossing the river and fighting it out on the Missouri territory. The game was ragged and showed signs of early season play. Maryville jumped into an early lead via the air route. They were unable to gain through the Peru line so in the third quarter wont back to their guns. Fireworks started when Velvick stepped in to intercept and jaunt for Peru's tally. Both try-for-points failed. Game Captain Joel Punches led the Peru attack in his usual charging fashion and was given- able support by Bert Hall and Dale Bridgewater. Too much Sloey proved disastrous for Peru as the Doane Tigers defeated the Cals 12-0. Peru fought the Tigers on even terms until Buck started spreading out the Peru defense with some nice passing, fit that point Sloey took charge and started cavorting around end. Sloey. one of the outstanding backs in the state, outfoxed the Peru ends on every punt return. Peru substitutes wont the length of the field in the closing quarter, but were stopped on the 5 yard line by the gun. Captain George Mort, along with Wilber Shields and Joel Punches, led the Peru attack. PAGE NINETY-TV O Hall Mosel y McHjgh Douglas PERU 0—MIDLAND 13 FOOTBALL—1937 PERU 7—WESLEYAN G Midland celebrated its Parents Day by drubbing the Peru Bobcats 13-0. The game was the muddiest tussle of the year for the Bobcats. The game opened with Midland shoving Peru around but failing to get near pay dirt in the first quarter. However, in the second quarter the Warriors took advantage of the breaks and sloshed down the field to a touchdown. The play then settled back to give-and-take until the third quarter. In this quarter Midland's Warriors brought the sodden spectators to their feet when the mighty Mid-landers flipped a short pass over the lino for their second and final touchdown. Homecoming fans watched a band of bedraggled Cats punt their way to victory over the Wesleyan Plainsmen. The game, which was a Homecoming feature, was played in a constant rain. Peru jumped into the game with a roar and started down the field, with Platenberg showing the way. V hon Platt injured his ankle. Game Captain Shields took over and crashed his way down the field for the touchdown. Stark plunged over for the point that later meant victory. Wesleyan scored on a looping pass—but failed in their try-for-point attempt. From then on, the game rested on the muddy toe of Tommy Major's cleated shoe. PAGE NINETY-THREE Adams McGinley Bridgewater Nelson FOOTBALL—1937 PERU 0—KEARNEY 14 A fighting Bobcat team fell before the wide sweeps of the Kearney Antelopes by a 14-0 verdict. Kearney, eager to repeat their '36 triumph, found a pile-driving Peru team resisting every inch of the way. Peru's line charged with a will, but neither backs nor linemen could keep the Kearney sweeps and off-tackle plays from gaining ground. Both touchdowns came as the result of blocked punts. At other times Kearney found the Bobcats presenting too strong a line for touchdowns. Eldred Douglas, Johnnie Green, and Keith McHugh looked best for the Bobcat squad, while Punches was acting captain. PERU 20—WAYNE 24 The wildest game of the year thrilled a large crowd as the Bobcats lost to Wayne 24-20. Wayne jumped into an early lead whon they blocked a punt and intercepted a pass to get into a 12-0 lead. Stark went around end, and then a forward-lateral and another pass put Peru on the long end of a 20-12 score. The second half was all Wayne, with Bradford passing to make the score 20-18 and Fox bringing the crowd to its feet by running a punt back eighty yards to win the game 24-20.

Hastings, N.C.A.C. champs, presented a rangy band of players who knew how to take advantage of the breaks. Outstanding was the ninety yard march they made on two successive punts. Both punts were fumbled by Peru backs and in each case Hastings recovered. The punt drive ended with a touchdown for the Broncs. Peru, led by Shields and Game Captain Punches, played Hastings on oven terms as far as first down and yardage were concerned. However, passes and fumbles marred the day for the Bobcats. PERU 13—TARKIO 7 Thanksgiving wishes were answered when the Bobcats pounced on the Tarkio Owls (in place of turkey) and won a 13-7 victory. Tarkio, Missouri College champs, were hardly a match for the well-clicking Peru team, fl flurry of passes in the last quarter almost scored for the Owls, but Ritter, freshman center, saved the day by intercepting a pass on his own five yard line. Bert Hall scored the first touchdown on a pass from Shields. Shields later plunged over for the winning touchdown. Hall, Shields, Ritter, and Majors were outstanding for the Bobcats.

BOBCAT CAGERS WIN N. I. A. A. AND MYTHICAL STATE TITLES Peru Bobcats, leading Nebraska college quintet, finished the ‘38 season with 16 victories in 19 games. The N. 1. ft. A. title and the mythical state title were conferred upon the Bobcats by Nebraska sports writers. The first Bobcat victory was a breather with the Dunbar town team and the final victory a thrilling 48-46 win over Wayne. Peru journeyed to Kansas City and the National Intercollegiate tournament, but lost in the first round to Marshall College, V est Virginia, 67-60. Dean McCormick and Orval Pugh, the only two seniors on the squad, were chosen as co-captains for the '38 season. McCormick, towering six foot four inch center, gained state wide recognition as the key man in Peru's offense and defense. Slim” was chosen on several all-opponent teams. Pugh was the calmer on Peru's team and his deliberate playing toned down the Cats when tho going became rough. Orv's gracofulnoss won the acclaim of Peru fans. Other members of the starting line-up included: Leonard Greathouse, sophomore, was one of the tall boys of the squad. “Big Mansion” won fame by his general fine playing and his dead-eyeing” from an over-head position. Bob Halladay, sophomore forward, was chosen on the all-conference team. Bob, a two-year man, was the leading scorer of the Bobcat squad. Russell Ding” Bailey, junior guard, was the outstanding guard in the state and was chosen on tho all-conference team. PERU 42. NEBRASKA B 29.

Wesleyan, the underdog, played the Bobcats on even terms until the last five minutes of play. Then the Bobcat machine began to click and pulled slowly away from the Wesleyan aggregation. Howard Dean broadcast the game over KMA of Shenandoah. Iowa. PERU 56. HASTINGS 33. Tho Bobcats took to the road and hit the top by Bronc-busting Hastings 56-33. McCormick soared to new fame by out-playing Marvel, towering Hastings center, in every department of the game.

The victory made Peru and Wayne top-notchers in the state and fans began to look forward to their initial encounter. Basketball Homocoming found grads and friends gathering at Peru to watch Gilk and his boys put on their annual basketball circus. The grads opened the game by gaining and holding the lead for ten minutes—then age began to tell and the grads took to “huffing and puffing.

The first meet of the year was a dual meet with Maryville, Missouri, and Peru failed to match the flying heels of the brawny men from the south. The final score was 94 to 40. The meet was featured by a dual botween Neil of Maryville (national hop-step-jump contender) and Riggs of Peru. They both stretched out over 24 feet in the broad jump. The next meet was with Tarkio, Missouri, and the Cats again lost. The contest was close, the score being 73-62. Riggs, Platenburg, Stark, and Ludington all won firsts. However, team power gathered too many points for Tarkio. The Bobcat delegation at the Hastings Invitational found Riggs the only man to place. He gathered a second in the 100-yard dash.

PERU SPLASHERS DROP TWO MEETS Peru's initial attempt at a swimming team brought two defeats and a groat deal of experience to Bobcat splashers. The two meets were with Hastings, and lack of experience spelled defeat for Peru. Coach Gilkeson has been able to give the fundamentals a good working over and Peru should expect a fair squad next year. Members of the team wore: Ray Kellogg, Roy Kellogg, Bill Mooney.

LARGE INTRAMURAL PROGRAM ENJOYED BY PERUVIANS The largest and most complete intramural program in Poru's history was undertaken this year. Swimming, volleyball, track, handball, softball and baskotball were included in the program announced by Coach Gilkeson. Over 100 boys, representing 8 teams, took part in the various sports. Chief emphasis was on basketball, in which the Collin House team landed on top after a slow start. Reiffs and Dahlstrom’s faltered after an early season lead and slipped into a tie for second place. Volleyball ended with the tall Parrish spikers de- feating Roiff's in a play-off game. Wearo's finished in third place. fin added touch to non-intercollcgiato contests this year was the fine showing of pugilist LoRoy Durst in the Golden Gloves tournament. Durst ontered in the welter-weight division, left a trail of knock-outs behind him as he punched his way to the finals of Omaha's tournament. However, he was out-pointed in the finals, losing to Vic Marker of Scottsbluff by a decision.

A festooned campus welcomed streams of alumni who first marched to a pep rally held around a giant bonfire, then sat feather-bedecked in a grey drizzle to see the Bobcats conquer a muddy Wesleyan team. The Through tho Keyhole cast went through paces perfectly for Director Moore's first stage presentation on this campus. Orkman Dave Haun hotlicked it for dancing in the gym as a climax for the week-end's festivities. Music Box Formal Magic-wanding the Mount Vernon dining hall into a Music Box night club was a simple matter in the case of the dormitory council, headed by Mary Murphy, who planned the fall formal for November _ 6. Colored spotlights, front and contor tables, wall decorated liberally with music notes, staves, and cellophane circles, a well-received floor show, and several bar maids did the trick. Appearing on the floor show wore Frederick Wolter in a round with the trumpet, Stella Rogge, who offered a tap dance, and Lucille Renner and Mildred Knoflicek, who wrested upon the same fiddle.

Any academy awards which tho audience might have awarded mentally were bestowed upon William Piatenburg, for a fine performance, Tom Chinnock, convincing as Scrubby, and Grace Mary Hnizda, portraying a suicide. Football Banquet The announcement that Joel Punches, four-year letter man, had been elected honorary captain of the 1937 football squad, was made at the annual football banquet hold in honor of the team on December 14. The Wymorc senior’s excellent record based on his real desire to play football and his stress on fundamentals more than warranted his election. Senator Robert Armstrong was the main speaker of the evening and stressed the importance of mental alertness and discipline. Toastmastor Fritz Wolter introduced Coach Gilke-son, who presented football letters to tho team. Alpine Formal Snowy clouds and Swiss mountain peaks transported out-of-dorm formal goers to tho land of tho yodeler and the alpine milkman. The residence girls used a blue and white color scheme for decorations, designed snow scenes on the Music Hall's windows, painted icy dance cards, and wrote appropriately frigid verse for the invitations. More than 45 couples danced under a star-filled ceiling to the refrains pouring forth from the music box. Between dances the girls' trio, composed of Songsters Harris, Hazelton, and Coatney, related musically a story about a certain Swiss Miss.” PAGE ONE HUNDRED SIX 1937-1938 Gamma Chi Kid Party Socks, bonnets, ar.d lollypops were in order as seventy Gamma Chiors hocked dignity for an evening filled with second childhood stunts at tho February Kid Party” hold in the dormitory play-room. Prizes were awarded to Tom Sawyer Carmine, Cherub Lucas, and quintuplets Lichty, Wilson, Renner, Hill, and Clifton, as being tho best representative children. Problem children of note were Little Lord Faunt-leroy Benson, toothless Bowery Boys McKimmcy and Volkmer, Jack Buchanan and Jill” Beckman, Mary Murphy as tho youngest baby, and Nedra Pidcock as an old fashioned girl. McKimmey To Atlantic City Local Kappa Delta Pi members elocted their president, Vivian McKimmey. as delegate to tho national convention held this year, the first week in March, at Atlantic City. Convention speakers included such notables as Dr. Hanus of Harvard, Helen Keller, and Dr. John Dewey, famous educator. YFCA Conference Drawing over 150 representatives from twelve surrounding colleges, tho Y.F.C.A. Spring Training Conference hold on tho campus March 18, 19, 20, was one of the largest and most successful projects carried out by tho local Y.W.C.A. and Y.M.C.A. Inspirational Dr. Harold Bosley, former Peru student, now associated with the theology department of tho Iowa State Teachers College, was socured as principal foi the conference. Delegates enjoyed dances, mixers, and fun nights, attondod a hilarious Estes banquet, commission meetings, church sorvicos, discussions about campus problems, and lectures by Dr. Bosley. M.I.N.K. Dramatics Contest From tho 127 students representing three states who attended the M.I.N.K. Dramatic Arts Contest, Auburn High School excelled to take Class A sweopstakes. Rockport, Missouri took tho Class B trophy, and Cook High School won the Class C trophy for the third time. Individual events included declamation, oratory, and oral interpretation. Judges for the contest were Mrs. Robert Mooro, Mrs. Glen Joder, and Misses Ramsay and Drake, for the Wayne Teachers College faculty. Spring Fever With an experienced eye. Director Robert Mooro selected a convincing cast to break into the bread-and-gravy lives of a Peru audience April 8, with Spring Fever,” the wildest and wooliest laugh-provoker of the season. The action took place in a typical college boarding house smacking of chemical smells, artist's crayons, and term papers. Here a substitute for dynamite was discovered, a girl lay dying, a biology professor was hooked, and a millionaire turned Bolshevik. Although composed largely of freshmen, the cast's almost professional interpretation may be attributed to the fine directing on the part of Mr. Moore and Assistant Director Marie Wiencke. Chorus Trip Packin' up his chorus in his old chartered bus, Professor G. Holt Steck shoved off April 7, on the second annual chorus trip through towns in Nebraska and Missouri to emblazon the music of the Perusingers upon the hearts of all who heard. The 35 warblers gave concerts in more than 15 towns, being well received in Shubert, Syracuse, Chester, Wymore, Dawson, Culbertson, Hastings, Superior, Falls City. Tarkio, Rockport, Beatrice, DeWitt, Franklin, and Stanford. Howard Miller, Gordon Gilbert, and Leora Lib-hart were featured as soloists in several numbers.
