Lrfi I .yjJK W 1 TEACHERS COLL EGE VOL U ME XXXV ELLE.M BUS. l££-c Observing the 75th Anniversary of Peru State Teachers College, we at Peru are proud to call ourselves Peruvians. During its seventy-five years of life. Peru College has made progress personified. To such people as Mr. and Mrs. J. W. McKenzie, oolonel T. J. Majors, and Major V m. Daily, Peru College owes its beginning. It was through Colonel Majors” and Major Daily's efforts that- the Normal School was founded at Peru. It was Mr. and Mrs. McKenzie who became the first instructors in the school which had an enrollment of thirty-two pupils. Wo present to you on these two pages a brief bit of Peru back when . . . back when Mr. McKenzie was president . . . back when the Main Building was the Normal Hall . . . back when the dormitory was Mt. Vernon Dormitory . . . back when the gym was not a gym, but a chapel . . . back when the most important organizations were the literary so- ties . . . back when Peru College was in its inlancy.

We at Peru State stand be- hind our country to let all nations know that such a destiny was written—the destiny of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, in a time when all nations of the world are at war to de- termine whether that des- tiny shall continue. Those who are under the Blue and White, as well as the Red, White, and Blue, are learning to live ... to live as men and women should live—to be physical- ly, mentally, and morally fit . . . to live in such a way that they can best serve their country, be it home de- fense or actual service in the armed forces ... to live for, believe in, and work toward this destiny, which is not only for Americans, but for all who are strug- gling in this war-torn world. The Blue and White shall forever hotd its place beside The Red, White, and the Blue. The Gym—home of the clawing and victorious Bobcats.

While other:: study. this second floor gang take: time out for a game of hearts Third year students, who by the end of the year already begin to feel the strain of what the final year will bring, were badgered about by Prexy Reuben Fanders in his own inimitable way. Their biggest responsibility, aside from keep- ing the sophomores humble, was to pre- sent the prom in the spring. This final gesture to the Seniors by their underclass brothers was original and clever. So, even v hile the grads are shed ding their gowns and mortar board, these future philosophy students are donning the yoke of Senior struggles.

They took up their duties as upperclassmen with the fervor they displayed as new students The frivolous ones worked and schemed to keep up with the Freshmen in parties and did succeed with a bang-up affair which was strictly sophomoric. These stu- dious classmen applied them- selves to the seldom men- tioned, but existent academic subjects, and with no little bit of success. Altogether the 1941- 42 Sophomores were preparing themselves for the task of being 1942 43 Juniors. ?03 e ThiMy-oijh?

The ground instruction consists of 72 hours of class-room work in Meteorology, Navigation, Civil Air Regulations, and General Service of Aircraft. This is taught as a college course in the Science De- partment, of which Dr. Winter is the head, and Professor Sweetland the ground school instructor. Flight instruction consists of 35 to 40 hours of dual and solo flying. For the first two units, this instruction was given by Frank Bringham and John Merris of the Bringham Flying Service, Auburn, Nebraska.

MARCHING BAND The old violin master Victor lindra once again cornes to the fore with his above-par orchestra. Although the string sec- tion is small, there is some of the most out- standing talent ever to have been on Peru's campus. Convocation - goers pricked up their ears to the orchestra's presenta- tion of their concert which included Ballet Music from Faust, by Gounod; Mission Overture, by Johnson, the three flutists —Larson, Jimerson, and Kennedy piping Dance of the Mirlitons, by Tschaikowsky with or- chestra accompaniment; Jack Snider's French horn soloing Song of India, by Rimsky-Korsakof, and for the wind-up Grieg's Huldigunsrnarsch. Music by Little Theatre Orchestra under the di rection of Victor FI. Jin- dra was a permanent line on all theatrical pro- duction programs. BAND fit football games, at convocations, at concerts, at pep rallies, ct basketball games —at every event or at any place where snap, vigor, and vim are needed—a band struts out ... a band that is a band. Forty-odd marchers arose uncomplain- ingly at the rooster's crow and practiced high-stepping to the tune of findra's in- structions and drum majorette Betty Berger's whistles. They paraded proudly at the Apple Harvest Festival in Nebraska City, and supported the Bobcats in a loyal-blue style at Homecoming. Settling down to a bit of concerting, these autumn marchers continued to prove themselves worthy of recognition. On Jan- uary 14, the Budget committee presented the college band in a concert directed en- tirely by student directors. Some of the numbers concerted were: Scenes from the Sierras, by Bennett; Theme from the Piano Concerto,'' by Tschaikowsky-Yoder; Who’s Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf? by Churchill-Yader; Onward, Ye People, by Sebelius; Snow White Overture, by Churchill-Leidzen; and “The Color Song. Student directors were: Betty Berger, Cleaveland, Korah Baker, McKenney, Jim- erson, Sandin, Annan, DeMaro, Drexler, and Tynon. Bandsters embarked on short tours and kept the blue and white fly in'.

The fifty-plus members sweated over cadenzas, diminu- endos and what-have-youettos to bring to a fitting climax -the chorus trip—dream of all Pop's potential proteges. The Chorus owes its success-crowned life to its director who at times literally pulls the music out of the group. P. fa- miliar sight on Saturday before the Sunday Musicale is G Holt, pacing the floor before the group of vocalist vagaries, clad in the famed red sweater. Artistic temperament7 perhaps, perhaps not, but there's no de- nying that every eye stays put on Pop. The Perusingers do not appear in sec- tional massed units as do other a capella choirs, but appear mixed up in quartets an original idea of Pop's. You gotta- wanta-sing, and you gotta-listen to make a good chorus. Perusingers wanta sing and you can bet they listen.

The tally- ing of the games brought to light four wins, three losses, and one tie. Even though the Bobcats were on the short-end of the score at times, they always played a winning game.

The Bobcats began applying the pres- sure and rolled over the Tigers for six touchdowns. Peru got off to a 7-0 lead in the first quarter of the Peru-Midland game. The second quarter saw the Bobcats on the offensive but unable to add the needed scoring punch. The second half opened with the in- spired Warriors coming back to score two touch- downs and a safety to take a 16-7 lead.

The Bobcats fought to maintain their point ad- vantage but were powerless to hold back the Antelopes who drove over two touchdowns to victory. The Bobcat reserves showed their ability to assume the re- sponsibility of first string posi- tions against Chadron. Floyd was out on an injury, but his position was ably filled by freshman Schmelzer, who made a brilliant end play.

Neither team had an opportunity to demonstrate their super- specials in playing football because of a snow-laden field. The game developed into a fracas of punts. Each team tried to use the wind to an advantage by kicking the other deep into defensive territory and then play for a recov- ery and possibility of scoring. The Bobcats struck early for their seven points putting the Washburn Kansans very much on the defensive. The Kan- sans used their weight ad- 1 vantage and immediately struck back to score on pass interceptions and completions for four touchdowns d u r in g the second quarter.

Intramural basketball has developed into one of the most popular activities on the cam- pus. The very successful par- ticipation is undoubtedly due to the efforts of Coach Jones and Student Director Bob Hen derson. Intramurals is a program in troduced to develop good sportsmanship and coopera- tion as well as an improved physical, being. A glance at any intramural game shows keen competition between any of the teams. The teams were organized by a system of lottery so that they would be more evenly matched.
