DEDICATION vL HE 1949 PERUVIAN is honored and pleased to dedicate this book to Dr. Castle M. Brown. Dr. Brown came to Peru in the fall of 1928, as Registrar and Associate Professor of Political Science. He was made Head of the Department of History and Social Sciences, in 1931, and chairman of the Social Science Division in 1946. During August, 1939, he participated in an international law conference at McGill University, Montreal, at the invitation of Carnegie Endowment for International Peace. He is the sponsor for the local International Relations Club and until this year sponsored the senior class. At present he is a member of the administrative policies committee, chairman of the faculty meetings committee, and a member of the Nebraska state committee on education for social work. He is past president of the Peru unit of N. E. A. Dr. Brown holds a bachelor's degree in political science from Denison University, Denison, Ohio, a master's degree in political science from Columbia University, and Doctor of Jurisprudence from the University of Chicago. As an undergraduate, he specialized in languages and political science and while at high school he considered a career as a concert violinist. The ballot, so familiar to Dr. Brown, was used by the staff in choosing this dedication. From letters and interviews came these dedicatory lines—is modest and self effacing, yet firm and courageous in defending the course which he thinks best for the students and the college — has won the respect of his faculty colleagues and is a force to be reckoned with in clashes of opinions—is generous and helpful to students continuing their study in graduate school — tempers his counsel with the soundness of judgment that comes from rich experience—infuses warmth and life into incidents and courses which would otherwise be dry and lifeless without his subtle humor — is resourceful in constructing cases to illustrate points leading to clearer understanding—is an outdoor sportsman with a passion for fishing with rod and fly—has a fondness for dogs which causes strays to follow him—enjoys buckwheat and good cigars—a dedication to Dr. Brown for his service to Peru and to the commonwealth of Nebraska. •a . COLOR SONG Fling abroad our College Colors To the free Nebraska breeze, Blending heaven's own white and azure With the soft green of the trees, While our loyal hearts and voices With pride and joy unite As we sing Peru's devotion To the pale blue and the white. CHORUS: While our loyal hearts and voices With pride and joy unite. As we sing Peru's devotion To the pale blue and the white. Through the years of sun and shadow, Mid the scenes we love so well, O'er our hearts our dear old colors Still weave their magic spell. And wherever life may find us We'll strive with all our might To uphold the brave tradition Of the pale blue and the white. When the cares of life o'er take us Mingling fast our locks with gray Should our dearest hopes foresake us False fortunes fade away. We shall banish pain and sadness By mem'ries fond and bright Of the old Nebraska College And the pale blue and the white.

Page t The Student Council in its weekly meetings is confronted with problems varying from parking lots to Freshman initiation. Students began to feel the extent of their activity during Freshman initiation. Homecoming was entirely in their hands. This year the council broke some of the ties of traditions and purchased blue and white caps for the Freshmen. Besides proposing legislation. the Council does what it can to augment student activity. The “Nuclear Physicist Y. W. C. A The Y. W. C. A. began the year by giving a get acquainted party for the freshman girls. In November Rozellan Ballard, Lois Paap, Darlene Brown and Jessie Rooten attended the Y. W. C. A. conference at Hastings. The Y. W. C. A. aroused interest in a Y. M. C. A. on the campus by inviting the men to a joint meeting. At Christmas time the Y. M., Y. W., and L. S. A. met together to carol for the faculty and student body. A Christmas pageant was given at Convocation with the aid of the Peruvian Singers, Y. M. and Mr. Moore. Mrs. Mutz and Mr. Rath were guest speakers during first semester.

Anderson. Kansas City, Chadron, Macomb, 111., Topeka, Wayne are just a few of the highlights included in the Blue Devil's travels during the year. Most everywhere the Bobcats played the Devils were there behind them. Parades through the streets of Chadron and Fremont, rousing cheers, the clamor of dozens of cow bells identified these lads as the nucleus of Peru State's cheering section. Besides the vocal support of the teams, pre-game ceremonies at the Homecoming football game, a get-together dance with the Wesleyan students, banquets honoring the football and basketball teams, and a convocation program were among the many activities of the organization. Through these functions the Blue Devils are following their constitution— creating a more enthusiastic student body. On the campus of Peru State Teachers College, there was a definite lack of enthusiasm toward athletics among the girls. For quite some time these girls had discussed the possibilities of organizing a girl's pep organization. Try-outs for those wishing to enter were followed by election of officers. The officers include Betty Nichols, president; Jackie Cole, vice-president; Ruth Walker, secretary; Charlene Rogers, treasurer; and Nadine Powers, sponsor. A pledge and constitution were written, after which uniforms of blue skirts, white sweaters, and blue and white beanies were selected. The club made its first appearance at Homecoming. The group has gained recognition by sponsoring a rally dance, concessions, and a convocation skit. The White Angel Song was composed for the club by Ollie Joiner. °°'9n °nd B'° n se„ .. ii Angei v noted sponSo ot coniro V HITE ANCELS Front row: B. Parriott. L. Colo, C. William . P. Morgan. F.

After having only thirteen rehearsals, the club gave a mystery entitled Ten Little Indians to a Homecoming audience. Leads went to Lois Paap, Phil Slagel, Maurice Moran, Robert Boesel and A1 Schwartz. Excellent supporting roles were portrayed by Pat Benford, Pat Pryor, Truman Lytle, Bob Clark, Jim McCoy and Floyd Fithian. Parlor Story was a second production of the year. Willard Redfern, as acollege professor, handled his part like a trouper, Dave Lang the much-in-love college editor holds burning love scenes with Pat Benford, the prexy's daughter. Assisted by those two zany cops, DeVan Hershy and Goon Metzger, Truman Lytle belly-laughs his way as the governor. Trudy Togwiler and Pot Pryor added chuckles to the plot with their fine acting, while A1 Schwartz, again the viIlian seriously portrayed the crooked politician.

In addition to the dozen and a half returning monogram winners there were a host of promising freshmen. In fact, Peru greeted its most promising group of yearling grid candidates since the pre-war era. When the final gun barked to halt the Peru-York game on Armistice Day, 1948 the Bobcats had won their fourth victory of the season against four defeats. In addition to this accomplishment, four seniors had donned their blue and white grid togs for the final time. This quartet of gladiators who sang the swan song was composed of Jerry Clayburn, Wayne Linder, Jerry Matschullat, and A1 Powers. On the victory side of the ledger were the games with South Dakota Wesleyan, Doane, Midland, and previously mentioned York. The Bobcat juggernaut came out on the short end of the score against Washburn, Wayne, Chadron and Wesleyan. Prospects are bright for the 1949 grid campaign with twenty-seven lettermen returning to bolster next autumn's squad. Roy Laue Tecumseh, end Don Anderson A1 Powers Tecumseh, back Oberlin, Ohio, back Jim Waddle Kenneth Sipes Falls City, back Salem, tackle Peru 34, South Dakota Wesleyan 6 With only two weeks of practice the fighting Bobcats opened the season with a convincing triumph over South Dakota Wesleyan on the Auburn High grid. Darrell Mudra hit pay dirt early in the second canto and the Peru boys were never headed. Mudra chalked up two more markers on short plunges in the last helf while Dean Theisfeld and Bob Wilson added the other tallies. Dick Campbell booted four perfect conversions before the South Dakota boys registered their only six-pointer in the final stanza. Peru 13, Washburn 34 Fletcher and Harmon led the Ichabods to victory but the game was much closer than the score indicated. The two teams were almost evenly matched from the statistical standpoint. Bob Wilson scored both Peru touchdowns, one of them on a fifty-four yard dash. Dean Theisfeld scampered sixty-five yards on another occasion. Peru 7, Doane 0 In the first conference game of the season Peru turned back a rugged Doan eleven in a hardfought game on the Nebraska City oval. Darrell Mudra plunged over for the only touchdown in the early moments of the final period, after Wayne Linder had recovered a Doane fumble deep in Tiger territory. Don Anderson's passing played an important part in the Bobcat offense. Doane's T-formation was halted by an aggressive Peru forward wall. Darrell Mudra Frank Masek Omaha, back Odell, tackle Jerry Claybum Peru, guard Dick Campbell Oberlin, Ohio, back Dana Bowling North Platte, end Jerry Matschullat Nemaha, tackle Glen Eis Lincoln, tackle Jack Brawner Nebraska City, end Dean Theisfeld Nebraska City, back Bill Sweeney Hot Springs, S. Dak., bac Peru 26, Midland 2 The Wheelermen scored their second conference win at the expense of the Midland Warriors. Mudra plowed over the initial marker while Wilson scampered sixteen yards for the second tally. A Don Anderson-Bill Sweeney pass accounted for another score while Anderson registered the final touchdown. The Warriors scored a safety in the early moments of the game. Peru 13, Wayne 21 Wayne's passing attack accounted for their three touchdowns as the Wildcats spoiled Peru's Homecoming. A Don Anderson-Jack Brawner aerial was good for the first Peru marker and Wilbur Scheitel climaxed a seventy-yard drive by scoring the other tally. The Wheelermen outyarded the visitors and Don Anderson completed eight out of twelve passes. Peru 6, Chadron 14 Again the Bobcats outplayed their opponents but came out on the short end of the score and the Peru jinx on the Chadron oval continued. A Chadron punt which was blocked by Glen Eis and recovered by Merlyn Muntz accounted for the lone Peru score. Wally Calvert scored twice for the Eagles. Wilbur Scheitel Falls City, back Roger Freet Toledo, Iowa, guard Jack Whisler Peru, guard Wilbur Eaton Plattsmouth, back Duane Miller North Platte, guard Peru 0, Wesleyan 12 Coach Bus Knight's Plainsmen were the only team to shut-out the Blue and White squad as Rex Mercer and Kenny White proved too much for the Bobcats. Don Anderson's passing featured an early drive which fizzled out on the Wesleyan five yard line, while Wayne Linder and Glen Eis were outstanding on defense. Peru 43, York 8 In the season finale, the Wheelermen scored a decisive triumph in an Armistice day game at York. Bob Wilson scored three touchdowns to bring his season's point total to forty-two. Cal Walden and Dick Campbell also hit paydirt and Wilbur Scheitel dashed thirty yards for another T. D. The Panthers scored their lone marker in the second quarter while the two teams exchanged safeties in the third stanza.

Jack Hallstrom Avoca, forward Charles Smith Silver City, Iowa, guard By winning twenty games in twenty-six starts the 1948-49 Peru State basketball squad annexed their second NCC cage championship and on invitation to the NAIB tournament at Kansas City. This was Peru's eighth invitation in the last eleven years. The Bobcats won their victories the hard way by playing all games away from home, while the gym was being remodeled. Omer Meeker Mitchell, forward The Blue and White cagers participated in three pre-season tournaments. They gained third place in the four state tourney held at Ma-Comb, Illinois by defeating Simpson, 52-46, and losing to Culver-Stockton, 49-39. In the Rock-hurst invitational tourney at Kansas City, the Bobcats racked up a 56-53 overtime victory against Missouri Valley but lost in the semifinals to Warrensburg, 44-43. In consolation Peru defeated Rockhurst, 55-47 to win third place. Bill Vossen Dawson, guard Lyle Meier DuBois, center BALL CHAMPIONS Merle Bauer Bill Johnson Shubert, guard Ong, forward In the first round of the Morningside tourney at Sioux City, Iowa the Bobcats came out on the long end of a 58-51 score against Sioux Falls. In the finals Peru led all the way to win 65-54. In other non-conference tilts, Omer Meeker tallied 21 points to lead the Bobcats past South Dakota State, 58-51. A speedy quintet from Beloit, Wisconsin trampled the Bobcats 76-46 in an early December game. Peru was in and out of the NAIB tournament in a hurry, as the luck of the draw pitted the Bobcats against St. Thomas College in the initial round. The aggressive Tommies rolled to a 74-44 triumph as Peru's only rally came in the early moments of the game. Don Bomschlegl Bob Eilers Ohiowa, foward Panama, center A1 Powers Oberlin, Ohio, guard Coach Newt Kyle's Bobcats opened the defense of their NCC title on December 16 as Wesleyan was defeated 50-47 on the Falls City maples. Omer Meeker tallied 19 points to cop scoring honors. Peru's ability to hit from the free throw line was the deciding factor as Doane fell 52-42 in an early January game on the Tiger's court. Again Meeker collected 19 points to lead the Blue and White squad. Bob Eilers registered 12 markers and was outstanding, defensively. Employing a fast break effectively, the Kylemen trampled York 71-42 at the Auburn High gym. Meeker and Johnson led scoring with 20 and 14 points, respectively. Again Eilers played an important role with his rebound work and defensive play. The Bobcats pulled away in the final minutes for a 63-51 victory over the Hastings Broncos as Meeker paced the scoring with 19 points. A number of the Peruvians traveled to Wayne to see the Bobcats come out on the long end of a 48-39 score. Eilers scored 11 points as the Kylemen avenged last year's losses to the Wildcat team. In a double header at Chadron, Peru defeated the Eagles 63-44 and 71-44. Don Born-schlegl and Merle Bauer led the Peru scoring with 14 points in the first game, while Bill Johnson and Lyle Meier tallied 12 and 11 points respectively, in the final contest. Jack Hallstrom sparked a late rally which produced a 58-51 overtime victory at Hastings as Meeker and Hallstrom led scoring with 11 and 10 points, respectively. A capacity crowd packed the Auburn gym to witness a 52-44 victory over Wayne. Merle Bauer chalked up 17 points and was the defensive standout of the game. Peru's platoon system wearied George Grib-ble and his Midland teammates producing a 79-49 victory over the Warriors. Eilers and Meeker led the scoring with 14 and 13 points, respectively. In one of the most weird games in NCC cage history, the Bobcats registered their only loss, in conference play, to the Kearney Antelopes. Eight Peru players were banished via the foul route in a rugged encounter which lasted three overtimes with Kearney winning 75-70. Peru played the entire third overtime with three men on the court. After leading 32-31 at the halftime, the Kylemen pulled away in the fiinal minutes to top York, 73-51. An effective stall in the final moments accounted for a 50-46 victory over Wesleyan. A zone defense, which was used by Peru for the only time of the season, halted the capital city quintet. The Blue and White five set a new school scoring record as Doane was trounced 85-44. Jack Hallstrom paced the scoring with 19 points. Hallstrom and Eilers led the way in a 64-46 victory over Midland. In the most thrilling game of the season Peru nipped Bob Korte and his Kearney teammates, 65-44. Subforward, Bill Johnson, was the hero as the Ong sophomore sparked a late rally. Back row: Powers.

I Memorial to Mrs. Alice Ulbrick The quiet but sudden passing of Mrs. Alice Ulbrick on Palm Sunday, April 10, 1949, left Peruvians stunned. She gave generously of her own energies and served joyously her pupils and student teachers. Her leadership in social, civic, and educational affairs was noteworthy; and her influence on young people was unusual. Her ever present smile will be missed for years to come.

JUNIORS The Jolly Juniors have been quite busy this year. Class officers were elected at the beginning of the year. They were Jim Cotton, president; Wayne Sayer, vice-president; and Rosemary Kyle, secretary-treasurer. Early in the fall a mock presidential election was held. This constituted campaign speeches, presentation of party platforms, and a primary and general election. In football and basketball the Juniors were very ably represented by eight athletes participating in one or both of the sports, Fred Clements, Bill Cole, Jim Cotton, Bob Knople, Dave Kyle, James Myers, Dick Parriott, and Dean Vanderford. Marie Robbins and Imogene Anderson helped to make the volley ball team a success. Seven Juniors participated in music contests held at Omaha and Auburn. They were Jim Cotton, Fred Clements, Margaret Ulbrick, and Rosemary Kyle. On January 24 nearly all of the Juniors went to Auburn to participate in the Cornhusker Boys' and Girls' State. There the students actually went through some of the routine work of the county officials and learned of their many duties. Each junior had been elected or appointed by a majority of the high school students to serve in a particular office. On returning from Auburn several of the students gave accounts of the day's events to the rest of the high school. Junior class rings were received on the 9th of March. This was a big day for all because the rings were very beautiful. ’age 107 First row: Patti Jo Mann. Carol Ann Morgans. Jo Ann Hatten. Janet Baker, Lena Blankenship. Edna McConnaughey.

The class elected, as representatives to the student council, Phyllis Davenport and Richard Steiner. Phyllis was the elected president of the council. For an assembly program in March, the sophomore English class gave two skits. The first of which was entitled The Doctor's Dilemma and the second The Football Fools '. Several of our class members have been active in student government. Jo Ann Hatten was chairman of the noon sales committe and Stanley Longfellow served as chairman of the assemblies committee for the second semester. Carol Morgans was president of the Pep Club and a first semester librarian. Fred Applegate, Stanley Longfellow, John Henning, and Duane Rains took an active part in football and these boys with addition of Richard Steiner participated in basket ball. Lena Blankenship, Edna McConnaughey, and Patty Patterson represented their class in volley ball. Janet Baker and Patti Jo Mann joined the class second semester and Donald Lotter withdrew.

Miss Barber was appointed sponsor of the class. John Christ, Venita Rader, and Roger Majors were elected to the Student Council. The freshman class has taken a very active part in the athletic events of Peru Pep. Billy McAdams, Raymond Douglas, Eddie Pharaoh, Robert Palmer, Roy Cope, Franklin Walker, Roger Majors and Myron Myers lettered in football. During the basketball season, Myron Myers was member of the squad and Roger Majors won his letter. The girls out for volley ball were Venita Rader, Barbara Mertes, Evelyn McConnaughey, Gwendolyn Hayes, Mary Steiner, Marilyn Apple-gate, Joan Mertes, and Miriam Newton. A pantomine For the Land's Sake! was presented at a March assembly program by the English class. Though the freshman year is just the beginning of the high school one can see that the years to come are going to be something to which one may look forward. ’age 109 With their new coach, John Nettleton, at the reins, Prep's green and inexperienced 11 worked hard and learned much in the '48 season.

With seven lettermen reporting to Coach Nettle-ton's call, the basketball prospects looked bright. As the season progressed, several freshmen and sophomores made marked improvement, thus strengthening the Prep”5 . The ’48-'49 basketball season went down in the books as a winning season, although Prep relinquished the Tri-State Conference Championship that had been held for the two previous seasons. The Prep Reserves faired much better and brought home their third consecutive conference trophy. 7 won 7 lost VOLLEY BALL Again volley ball headlined the girls Physical Education program. Under the tutoring of Mrs. James Gleason, the Prep Spikers did a fine job of representing Prep in interscholastic competition. Chosen by the student body, these girls led Peru Prep cheering through the 1948-'49 athletic season. The boys claim the girls are the prettiest cheerleaders they saw all season.

The chief purposes of the Student Council are to bring student interests to the faculty, foster cooperation, build wholesome school spirit, promote and organize a variety of school activities, provide assembly programs, develop leadership and afford opportunity for democratic participation in school affairs. To this end the council set up eleven committees, with approximately sixty student members. These student committees were selected by the chairmen who were appointed by the council. First row: R.

Several participated at Omaha in the Nebraska Federation of Music Clubs and at Auburn in the District Contest. The Auburn event was the year's climax for the orchestra and soloists. The Kitten Chatter is the Prep school paper which was published for the first time in several years. It was sponsored by Miss Barber and staffed by seniors, juniors, and sophomores who wished to work on the paper. Floyd Grossoehme was editor and Rosemary Kyle his assistant. [age 113 First row: M.
