DEDICATION To vision, to achievement, as embodied in the true pioneer, we dedicate this book in humble reverence to the Great Spirits, the Pioneers of yesterday, of today, and of tomorrow. Forward, forward, forward went the pioneers of the prairies • • • Forward, forward, forward, the pioneers continue. It is to this spirit, the spirit of pioneering, that we have attempted to call attention, particularly as con- cerns our Alma Mater on the plains of southern Kansas. 1. Campus 8. Beaux and Belles 2.

FRANCES WILLARD HALL GREETINGS The history of the Kanza Staff is a record of struggle, and the sur- mounting of difficulty after diffi- culty until today that Staff publishes this beautiful volume — a volume which visualizes the fruits of the ef- forts of the loyal men and women who have labored together through these years, and one which predicts the hope, the ideal, and the realiza- tion of every friend of K. S. T. C. W. A. BRANDENBURG, President. PAGE 23 GREETINGS We are rapidly approaching the mile stone of another year and as we look back over the past year we have many things for which to be grateful. Despite the financial depression and other factors over which we could have no control our attendance has kept up in a most gratifying manner. There has been no tendency on the part of the institution as a whole, its faculty, or its stu- dent body, to give up our ideals and purposes. Your Alma Mater was born of a pioneer spirit of progress in Education. She has endeavored to maintain high standards in quality of work and at the same time render a wide service to all who have sought to enter her portals. Our graduate division has made a splendid beginning and is now well organized. The enrollment for graduate work has excelled our expectations, having up to date reached 197. Eleven states and twenty-seven colleges are represented. A well trained corps of teachers is handling this work. As I view the institution in all its relationships, it has one ideal and that is to advance, not retreat; and to continue to serve our state and other communities in the most efficient manner. As the Dean of the College I appreciate the co- operative spirit of faculty, student body and alumni and greet you as friends one and all with one common purpose, namely, K. S. T. C. first. G. W. TROUT, Dean of the College.� PAGE 25 HATTIE MOORE MITCHELL, A. M. HEAD OF DEPARTMENT GREETINGS “Beyond the horizon of tradition and routine” will be the portion of some whose eye will scan these pages. “To the pioneers” is a fitting dedicatory inscription for any college annual. College halls welcome youth because youth has eyes which see far and clearly into days yet unborn. Youth has ears which catch the challenge of silent powers yet unbound. Youth accepts the hazard of the undefeated and disillusioned which maturity declines. The birthright of youth is the vision of service, accomplishment and comradeship. A long time ago I read the sentence, “Blessed is he who is the Columbus of his own soul.” Here’s a Godspeed to youth, the pioneer spirit of tomorrow and tomorrow’s tomor- row. MRS. HATTIE MOORE MITCHELL, Dean of Women. PAGE 27 ART ELSIE LEITCH BOWMAN HEAD OF DEPARTMENT The Art Department continues to grow and to increase in service. Its aim is to prepare thoroughly equipped directors of art and to bring to the elementary teacher a clear understanding and appreciation of the function and need for art in the public schools. It also provides training for those who are interested in special branches of the work. There has been a steady growth each year in numbers and in interest. Graduates are successfully teaching in surrounding towns of Kansas, of neighboring states, and in some of the larger cities of the East. Others, specializing in some particular Line of work, are now hold- ing positions in the commercial world. The College Art Club was organized .in 1921 and, with the co-opera- tion of the school and city, has brought fine exhibits to the campus. The paintings which have been purchased by the club are hung in a room of the new Music Hall. In this collection of nine pictures are a very fine etching by Frank Brangwyn and a painting of an early Ameri- can artist of the Hudson River School. The faculty of the department consists of Elsie Leitch Bowman and Bertha A. Spencer. The offices and classrooms are on the second floor of the Industrial Arts building. PAGE 28 CHEMISTRY AND PHYSICS J. A. YATES, PH. D. HEAD OF DEPARTMENT This department has been given the permission to offer major or minor work in chemistry for the Master of Science degree. A friend of the department has been supplying the College library for many years with the Journals1 of the American Chemical society, along with closely allied magazines. This library material furnishes a good background for reference material for Master’s work in chemistry. The student who chooses his major in chemistry may select a minor in any department which offers a major or minor in the graduate division of the College. The aim of the department is to co-operate earnestly and effectively with all other departments and interests of the institution. PAGE 30 COMMERCE W. S. LYERLA. A. M. HEAD OF DEPARTMENT Alumni and former students who have not visited K. S. T. C. for several years will find upon returning, considerable change in the Department of Commerce. The extensive growth of the department has made it necessary to remodel the fourth floor of Russ Hall tg accommo- date the increasing number of commercial students. The entire south end of the fourth floor is now occupied by the department. While the greater number of students who graduate in this depart- ment become teachers, many recognize the opportunity offered by the department to secure a knowledge of work in business administration as well as work along secretarial lines. In the curriculum such courses in business administration as market management, advanced accounting, business organization and management, business finance and business law have been added, thus giving students who plan to become either commercial teachers or business men and women a broader conception of business principles and practices. The department faculty, now numbering six, consists of W. S. Lyerla, J. U. Massey, Willa M. Dush, Lillian I. Miller, L. C. Guffey and Hallie Bennington. Recognizing the need of fostering high scholastic attainment, a chapter of Pi Omega Pi, a national honorary commercial fraternity, has been installed on the campus. Sophomore, junior, and senior students majoring or minoring in commerce and ranking high in scholarship are eligible to membership in this fraternity. PAGE 31 EDUCATION H. C. PRYOR. PH. D. HEAD OF DEPARTMENT During the past year the Department of Education has developed along several lines. Rural Education has become more closely associated with it making possible more effective co-operation in the training of a’l types of teachers. The Bureau of Research has been affiliated with the department and is helping to unify and make more practical the work in measurements. Graduate work is offered with a major in education. This makes it possible to train not only better classroom teachers but also better supervisors and administrators. The curricula for kindergarten-primary, intermediate and rural teachers have been organized. A four-year curriculum leading to a de- gree in elementary education has been prepared. Definite sequences of graduate courses have been provided for elementary and high school teachers, supervisors and administrators. The staff has been increased to meet the demands placed upon it. Several of the former members have secured further graduate training and the new additions are all well trained for their work. All of these changes enable us to look forward with greater con- fidence to the task of training teachers to meet the demand of a chang- ing civilization. PAGE 32 ENGLISH I. G. WILSON. A. M. HEAD OF DEPARTMENT The English, department has had one addition in the last year, Dr. Emma Field Pope, a graduate of the University of Chicago. It is the plan of the department to secure another Doctor of Philosophy and then pre- sent a major and a minor for a Master’s degree. During the last year many books have been added to the English library, especially in the Readings ,in Literature course. Two books, a book of personal poems; and an anathology of student poems, have been published during the last year by Miss Margaret Haughawout. The department has- received two complete files for office records, two new typewriters, and a mimeograph. Sigma Tau Delta, the honorary English fraternity is presided over this year by Miss Maxine Boner with Mrs. Adele Burnett, sponsor. The English club has for its president Miss Margaret Hoefer and for its sponsor Miss Dora Robertson. The Monday Night club, an organization of Miss Haughawout s, is doing unusually good work. Mr. Bennett, Miss Haughawout, and Mr. Wilson continue to give lectures. At the present time nearly all the seniors and sophomores who ex- pect to get degrees or life diplomas have been checked by the Committee on Credentials. Already several calls for teachers have come to the English office. e A.G£ 3? FOREIGN LANGUAGE S. J. PEASE, A. M. HEAD OF DEPARTMENT After a year’s leave of absence at the University of Chicago, the head of the department of Foreign Languages is glad to be back at his regular work and to greet Kaiza readers again. New arrangements of majors and minors make it possible for any student with a taste and a moderate talent for foreign languages to gratify his desire. The A. B. degree, owing to special conditions this year, has not yet brought us numbers; these we may expect with the return of normal conditions. One of the most significant events of the year, in language as well as in world and class comity, was the opening of the Vatican radio station HVJ on Lincoln’s birthday. Not only was the address of the Pope world wide .in its appeal, but it definitely added Latin to the list of modern languages heard by any who will hear. k,W PAGE 34 GEOGRAPHY AND GEOLOGY EULALIA E. ROSEBERRY, A. M. HEAD OF DEPARTMENT The Department of Geography and Geology has a three fold purpose: To prepare teachers for the teaching of geography and geology; to give students a basic knowledge of the -subjects which may later lead to specialization; and to correlate with other departments of the College. In addition to the head of the department, the staff consists of C. E. Abernathy, M. S., E. M., Professor of Geology; Etelka Holt, M. A., Assistant Professor of Geography; Claude McFarland, M. S., Professor of Geography. The staff hopes not only to promote the efficiency of teaching in the field of geography and geology, but also to bring about an increased interest in the subjects .in order that more people may profit by the rich benefits which may be derived from a knowledge and understanding of the various places of the -subjects. New courses are- being added to the curriculum and the department is being strengthened in every way practical. PAGE 35 HISTORY AND SOCIAL SCIENCE G. W. TROUT, A. M. HEAD OF DEPARTMENT Several changes have been necessary in the department during the past year. Dean L. M. Collins, who had charge of our work in soci- ology, has during the past year, been away on leave of absence working on his Ph. D. degree. He expects to return to us upon the completion of his work for this degree On account of the absence of Dean Collins and the opening of our department for both a major and a minor in the graduate division, it has been necessary for us to add two new faculty members. Doctor Elizabeth Cochran comes to us with several years of successful teaching and thoroughly equipped in scholarship for her position. Doctor Cochran is handling graduate work and senior graduate work entirely. Doctor Ernest Mahan has also been added to our faculty and is devoting his time to graduate and some under-graduate work. Apart from these no other material changes have been made in the department staff. We are anxious to serve those who may take any work in the department. PAGE 3G HOME ECONOMICS WILLIE MELMOTH BOMAR. A. M. ACTING HEAD OF DEPARTMENT The central aim of home economics teaching today is to give a broad, comprehensive viewpoint as to the meaning of the home as the institution in which future citizens are definitely trained for progressive social activity. This viewpoint places emphasis on factors of person- ality and human relationships; on the development of character and ideals rather than on activities and skills. But just as a successfully managed industry rests on the foundation of pertinent activities efficiently performed, so does the home depend largely upon the smooth running of its machinery for opportunity for its highest development. To that end training in the fundamental skills which the business side of homemaking necessitates becomes a part of the home economics curriculum. The Department of Home Economics of the College recognizes the need for training in both phases of homemaking. Its curriculum includes courses in foods and clothing, in housewifery and management, with their related aspects of science and art, in child development and train- ing, and in home and family. It also prepares students for teaching these subjects through its courses in methods and supervised teaching. There are eleven members of the home economics staff: Annie Marriott, foods and institution management; Pearl Garrison and Mabel Frances Henry, textiles and clothing; Louise Gibson, methods and supervision of practice teaching; Carrie B. Green, vocational home economics and child development; Alza Rodgers, household management and supervision of the Home Management House; Eleanor Whittinghill, nutrition; Helen Hass, art; Mrs. Blanche Little, vocational training center, Frontenac; Ruth Thornton, scouting; and Willie Melmoth Bomar, acting director of department, home economics education, and modern family. PAGE 37 INDUSTRIAL EDUCATION A. H. WHITES ITT, A. M. HEAD OF DEPARTMENT The chief motive for founding this .school was the training of indus- trial arts teachers, and while its curricula has been extended and strengthened until it is now recognized as a first class college, the Indus- trial Education Department, ever mindful of its birthright and mindful of its mission and opportunities, is always seeking to maintain the enviable reputation that it enjoys among its educational sisters through- out the country. The faculty of this department has recently dedicated itself to the task of improving its teaching methods, which are in harmony with the latest and best thought and growing practice in the field of industrial education. It has undertaken a stupendous task but one which will ulti- mately place every course in the department on the “instruction sheet” basis. This will be another mark of progressiveness and leadership in the training bf industrial arts teachers. The department faculty is: E. W. Baxter, G. E. Braley, F. K. Bryan, R. M. Coffelt, F. H. Dickinson, R. W. Erskine, W. J. Newell, O. A. Hank- ammer, H. V. Hartman, R. J. Nevins, G. R. Wasser, F. R. Werst, Homer Newby and Leon Rowlette. PAGE 38 LIBRARY ODELLA NATION. B. S. LIBRARIAN The library facilities include subscriptions to about 395 periodicals, a book collection of over 34,000 volumes, and a large clipping file making it possible to furnish students promptly with any needed information or reference work. In addition to the librarian, the -staff is composed of Anise Sanford, Mrs. Marie Worsham, Mary S'herfy, and Alice Roberts. We thank the faculty and students for their kindly co-operation with us in the past and feel sure this co-operative spirit will continue the coming year. It is only with library, faculty and students working in harmony that the library can render its best service to the College. PAGE 39 MATHEMATICS W. H. HILL, A. M. ACTING HEAD OF DEPARTMENT J. A.' G. Shirk, head of the department of Mathematics, is taking a sabbatical leave of absence for the year in study at Stanford Uni- versity. During his absence, W. H. Hill is acting head of the department. The mathematics department has its offices and main class rooms on tne third floor of Russ Hall. A ten-inch telescope is located on the roof of this building for class work in astronomy. Rooms equipped for surveying and engineering class wTork are maintained in the Mechanical Arts building. This department has just been authorized to offer courses leading to the Master of Science Degree with a minor in mathematics. Statistics will be an important phase of this work. The present teaching staff consists of R. W. Hart, F. C. German anet R. G. Smith. Athol Baily is a part time instructor. MUSIC WALTER McCRAY, B. MUS. DIRECTOR OF MUSIC The Music Department extends greetings to all students and alumni, and invites all to visit the Music Hall and see what a finely equipped building we have in which to give the most efficie.it training in music. All the music work of the institution is now given in the new music building. While the studios and classrooms have aided materially in the presentation of our music work, we feel that the greatest need of the department has been met in the fine auditorium, which serves as a rehearsal room for the chorus, glee clubs and orchestra; and the band rooms, which meets the needs of our band. We now have seventy-six graduates of the music supervisor’s course in the field teaching and we have many others in other lines of music work. This year our enrollment has shown a very satisfactory increase over last year; and v ith our present equipment and well-equipped faculty we feel certain the Music Department will go forward this year . PAGE 41 PHYSICAL EDUCATION ...WOMEN IRMA GENE NEVINS. A. M. DIRECTOR OF WOMEN'S PHYSICAL EDUCATION The Women’s Physical Education Department aims to produce situations for the College Woman which are mentally stimulating and socially sound, as well as providing for a physical development. Every girl is recognized as an individual, and we are endeavoring to provide the kind of exercise program which will enable her to find her best health. The department sponsors the following organizations. The Women’s Athletic Association, which is open to every woman who is enrolled in the college. This organization has for its motto, “A sport for every woman, and every woman a good sport.” The Physical Education Club which is composed of majors and minors in the department. It is the policy of this club to keep up to date with the latest developments in the Held of health and physical education. The Swimming Club is open to all women who have passed certain swimming requirements. The “Comets” a pep club of the Junior-Senior High School also comes under the department of Physical Education. There are three instructors in the department, and two student assistants. Miss- Irma Gene Nevins, M. A., director; Mis� Hazel Cave, M. S. is in charge of sports and physical education; and Miss Lucille Hatlestad, M. A. is the supervising teacher of the Training Schools. PAGE 42 PHYSICAL EDUCATION.•• MEN GARFIELD W. WEEDE, D. D. S. HEAD OF DEPARTMENT Man has always engaged in play and sports, but only in recent years have the many health and moral benefits to be derived from athletic activities been fully recognized. To help the students of K. S. T. C. secure these higher values as well as the physical values which have been the accepted ones in the past is the primary ,aim of the Men's Department of Physical Education and Athletics. We have had a fine response to the physical education classes, and of our inter-collegiate teams we have been proud. We trust all who have been in “gym” classes or participated as members of inter-collegiate or intra-mural teams have profited from their experiences. All those who are graduating we exhort to keep up some regular systematic form of daily exercise, believing that if you do you will make greater success in your chosen fields of endeavor. We hope more and more of those who continue in college will enter wholeheartedly into the spirit of the physical education program. Join a class or team and get the play spirit. Required courses in any department of college work are not usually the most pleasant ones. Physical education is no exception we realize. We don’t enjoy your forced attendance any more than you. We do enjoy work with those who secure pleasure from the same. If assigned a class attend regularly and cheerfully and by doing so we feel sure you will get better results physically, socially, and ethically. The staff of the men’s department is as follows: G. W. Weede, Director of Department and track coach; John F. Lance, instructor and basketball coach; George Walker, instructor and high school supervisor; Edward “Blue” Howell, instructor and football coach; George Small, instructor. PAGE 43 PSYCHOLOGY AND PHILOSOPHY v CHARLES B. PYLE. Ph. D. HEAD OF DEPARTMENT Four years ago the department was organized under the name of psychology and educational philosophy. Two years ago the name was changed to psychology and philosophy. During these years the depart- ment has made notable advance. Two additional professors have been added to the teaching staff. Thirteen new courses have been added in both psychology and philosophy. Several hundred dollars worth of apparatus have been supplied for the experimental laboratory. We have extended the use of the apparatus to several classes outside the experimental course so that many more students may enjoy the methods and results' of experimentation. The dual function of the work of the department is to provide psychological principles which govern educational procedure, and to provide a foundation for a liberal education. Accordingly, we are offer- ing courses in differential curricula to prepare specifically elementary and high school teachers for their respective tasks'. We are also offering courses to meet the requirements of students who will persue advanced work in a university. A major of twenty-four hours may be taken in the department leading to a B. S. degree. A major of twenty-four hours and a minor of twenty hours may be taken leading to an A. B. degree. And a miinor may be taken leading to a Master of Science degree. PAGE 44 RURAL EDUCATION E. E. STONECIPHER, M. S. DIRECTOR OF RURAL EDUCATION Rural education is demanding increasing attention throughout the country and in keeping with the movement, K. S. T. C. has1 set up an improved curriculum for the training of rural and small town teachers and the Division of Rural Education is extending its'service. The resident enrollment is increased over that of last year and the work in the field has been extended both as to content and territory served. The Gleaner, a monthly publication of the department, is sent each month to more than 2,000 teachers, board members, rural school admin- istrators, state legislatures and others interested in rural education. Miss Flora E. Holroyd is assistant and supervising teacher in the department. PAGE 45 SPEECH JOHN R. PELSMA. PH. M. HEAD OF DEPARTMENT To be able to speak clearly, forcefully, gracefully, and effectively is an open sesame to leadership. The Department of Speech aims to make each student an interesting reader and an effective speaker. In its forensic aspect, the department strives to promote in each •student proficiency in c’arity of thought and facility of vocal expression for practical occasions upon which he might be asked to speak; and to develop platform proficiency, as well as a technical understanding, of debate and oratory. In the field of dramatics, the aim .is to develop capacity- of individ- uality and personality; and to instill sincere understanding of human nature as a basis for true interpretation. To say the most in the briefest time and to say it well remains the departmental aphorism. PAGE 46 RESEARCH BUREAU EDGAR MENDENHALL, A. M. DIRECTOR OF RESEARCH The Bureau of Research, under the direc- tion of Professor Edgar Mendenhall, con- tinues to function as an essential phase of our educational activities. In a changing civilization it becomes constantly neces- sary to gather, organize and interpret facts. The Bureau is attempting to make its con- tribution to meet this need. A growing service the Bureau is render- ing consists in the distribution and inter- pretation of the standard tests. PAGE 47 REGISTRATION J. F. MITCHELL. A. M. REGISTRAR The registrar’s office seems to be at the main inter- sect'on of the various highways that students must travel to attain what we call an education. Apparently there is no detour past this place no matter how worn the road becomes. Partly on this account, it would be a matter of deep regret to us if we should not be able to help you when you “turn in” here. Though: the business of managing the registrar’s office grows more and more complex with each succeeding semester; and the work, arising from these increased duties, occupies us all more completely in the round of the days, yet we want the students, alumni and faculty members of our institution to know they are always wel- come and that we stand ready to help whenever we can be of assistance to any of them. Miss Eva Edwards is Assistant Registrar. Janette Hughes, recorder, Nettie Hembree and Georgia Weir are assistants in the office. PAGE 48 WILLARD HALL HATTIE MOORE MITCHELL. A. M. DEAN OF WOMEN Readin,’ wriitin’ and ’rithmetic in the pioneer college class room corresponded to the -smoky lamps, coal stoves and wash pans in our pioneer college dormitory. The curriculum offered by this institution meets the requirements of a Class A college recognized by N. E. A., and our dormitory for college women, Frances Willard Hall, meets the requirements of college women and -is recognized by the mothers and the fathers of Sunny Kansas. Kansas State Teachers College is proud to have a building on its campus built and equipped for comfort and pleasure to offer to young women who select this institution as their college home. Willard Hall is- centrally located as to class rooms, library, cafeteria and auditorium; .is fireproof and modem in every respect. The individ- ual rooms for the students are conducive to study and comfort. One large recreation room, together with two smaller parlors fur- nished with piano, over stuffed chairs and davenports, library tables, floor lamps, electric orthorphonic and a “cheery fireplace” is one of the most attractive places on the college campus. ’T,is here the residents meet each evening and enjoy a -social hour before retiring to their rooms for study. Various social affairs are enjoyed throughout the year. Long after their college days are over, young women who have had the privilege of living in Willard Hall will recall with great pleasure the Christmas seasons, hearing the Christmas carols being sung by the girls winding their way to the parlors, knowing a Christmas tree burdened with gifts before the Yuletide fire will greet them, and the annual breakfast fur- nished by the house director will be served. A house is not always a home, but Willard Hall with Miss Eleanor D. Kase, who is vitally interested in the health and welfare of each resident, is an ideal college home. Credit .is due J. E. Lofton, the custodian, for the artistic arrange- ment of the lawn and the general air of thoughtful care and preserva- tion about the premises. He is never too busy to strap a trunk, repair the buzzer or provide a new light bulb. By virtue of my position as Dean of Women, it is my privilege to have the general oversight of Willard Hall, and my chief regret is we cannot accommodate all the requests for reservations in this college home. The glad hand of welcome is extended to college women who plan to make Willard Hall their college home, as well as to former students who find it possible to visit the campus from time to time. PAGE 49 EXTENSION L. A. GUTHRIDGE, B. S. DIRECTOR The Kansas State Teachers College of Pittsburg was one of the very first among the teachers colleges to recog- nize the importance of extension service. Extension-class work is given by regular members of the College Faculty in various centers. The number and length of recitation, and the quality of work required con- form to the standard set by the leading colleges and universities of the country. In correspondence study the same high standard set for the extension class work is maintained. The student is required to prepare a written manuscript for each as- signment required in the course. The manuscript must show evidence that the student has a grasp of the subject matter comparable to that of a student of the same sub- ject in residence. In addition the student is required to pass a written examination. PAGE 50 GENERAL OFFICE BELLE PROVORSE FINANCIAL SECRETARY AND SECRETARY TO THE PRESIDENT Pioneerings—what a word, what a thought, what an embryo of his- tory, what a sentiment it is that clouds our minds as we hear this word uttered! Whether it pertains to the nation, to our beloved State, or to the institution we all have come to love, it is a word sweet to the ear, and sacred as Holy Writ. In the building of an institution, little if anything, comes by chance. From the beginning of K. S. T. C. until now, there have been associated together men and women of her faculty, students and friends, loyal and true, whose only thought was a deeper devotion, a more complete con- secration to the progress of K. S. T. C. Days were not too long, neither were nights too dark or stormy, nor tasks too arduous for the spirit of service cherished by the men and women of her faculties throughout these years. So together we have built here on the plains of Southeast Kansas only the beginning of the institution yet to be. Her army of graduates covering the land in positions of great responsibility march on with spirit undaunted, and send back to her halls the great crowd of young men and young women who make up her student body from year to year. PAGE 51 BOARD OF REGENTS C. M. HARGER CHAIRMAN The State Board of Regents is the official gov- erning body for the state educational institutions. G. M. Harger, Abilene; is the chairman of the board. The other members of the board are: B. C. Culp, Beloit; F. M. Harris, Ottawa; W. E. Ireland, Yates Center; Drew McLaughlin, Paola; C. B. Merriam, Topeka; C. W. Spencer, Sedan; Oscar S. Stauffer, Arkansas City; and G. C. Wilson, Meade. Each year the board visits the College in a body. Individual members of the board also visit the cam- pus at various times when convenient. The College is always glad to have them come and keep in close touph with the activities and growth at K. S. T. C.

National Penmanship Assooiation PAGE 111 There is an ever increasing number of persons who, believing that greater prog- ress can be made by further training, continue in the gradu- ate school. The graduate school is, indeed, the outcome of the ever advancing activities of the pioneer spirit. PAGE 112 GRADUATES Graduate work was set up in the college for the summer session 1929 with an initial enrollment of fifty-eight and a faculty of four instructors. During the year 1929-30 five students completed the work for the master of science degree and had the degree conferred upon them at Commencement, 1930. Six other graduate students finished the work during the summer session. . In the fall of 1930 the departments of biology, chemistry, history, home economics, and industrial education set up graduate work and the graduate faculty was increased to twenty. Only those instruc- tors in the college holding a doctor’s degree were eligible to membership in the graduate faculty. Up to the present time two hundred four dif- ferent students have enrolled in the graduate divi- sion. Twenty-four are eligible to graduate this spring or summer. The outlook for the graduate division is very bright. It has met a very definite need in the college, and the administration and fac- ulty are very much pleased with the showing already made.

Vice President Recording Secretary . Corresponding Secretary President Trelsurer Miss McPherson . Sponsor The Pan-Hellenic Council was organized in July, 1920, for the pur- pose of fixing the date of Rush Week; passing and enforcing rush rules; regulating other matters pertaining to local Pan-Hellenic I fe; encour- aging all chapters to take an active interest in all school and co’lege activities for the common good; and striving to develop a closer inter- sorority fellowship. Perhaps the most outstanding activity of the council this year has been the sponsoring of a Pan-Hellenic dance. This is the first time that a large undertaking of this kind has been accomplished. The local Pan-Hellenic is an association of Greek-letter societies competing with one another, whether the societies have national affilia- tion, or are merely local in scope. Rivalry between sororities is not limited to the competition for members. A sorority of the right type aims to be a character bui’der, an intellectual stimulus, a school of manners, and a strengthener of religious faith; and it should direct its efforts to surpassing its rivals in fine endeavor, and thus make the sorority a power for good in the college community.

The work of the council consists of initiating new policies, expressing student opinion; and in accordance with its constitution, assuming charge of all activities not controlled by other organizations. The responsibilities of the council are: saie of freshman caps, planning of freshman rules, promotion of class elections, Stunt Fest, Commem- oration Day, and school excursions and picnics. This year’s council has inaugurated the policy of holding Stunt Fest in connection with annual Commemoration Day activities. The council was represented by its president at the National Stu- dent Federation of America which was held December 28, 20, and 30, at Atlanta, Georgia. PAGE ! 69 THE COLLEGIO JACK SPENCER • Business Manager LEON BURGESS Editor The Collegio is the official student news publication of the College. The paper was established in 1915 as the Manualite. The name was changed to The Collegio in 1923. The Collegio is published each Friday except during the month of August and scheduled vacation periods. The Collegio, like other college newspapers, has the difficult task of serving a twro-fold purpose; it is a news publication on the one hand and a laboratory 'project on the other. These two purposes are not in harmony on all points. The success of the modern newspaper lies in the speed in which it gathers and disseminates news. It must be borne in mind that the reporters and news gatherers of a college publication are not usually accomplished writers, but are learners of the fundamen- tal processes of the profession. Consequently, the stress must be placed upon accuracy and correct forms rather than upon speed. The same situation holds in the mechanical production of the paper. Most of the type is set by student operators; the pages are “made-up” and the press work is done by students. In all these operations—from the reporter to the pressman—accuracy must be sacrificed if there is to be speed, and speed if there is to be accuracy. The Collegio attempts to maintain as high a degree as possible in both of these factors. The policy of the Collegio has been to print the news of the College, observing at all times the ethics of the newspaper profession. PAGE 170 Jenkins Cutsinger Bennett Iloefer Breazeale Stephens Lortz Rountree Waterman Nelson Stenger Taylor THE STAFF The Collegio staff works under the supervision of Ernest Bennett, associate professor of English and instructor in journalism. Each semes- ter students who show adaptability to the work of the editorial office are chosen as assistant editors from the newswriting and journalism classes. A second semester course in news editing composed of ad- vanced students formed the nucleus for the staff of the spring semes- ter. Those on the fall semester staff were Julia Belle Breazeale, Gladys Cutsinger, Margaret Hoefer, Helen McCune, Ardis Nelson, Sara Ste- phens, Betty Stenger, Richard Taylor, and Charley Waterman. The personnel of the spring semester staff includes Julia Belle Breazeale, Gladys Cutsinger, Margaret Hoefer, Howard Jenkins, Lloyd Rountree, Helen Lortz, and Sara Stephens. Richard Taylor, first semester, and Howard Jenkins, second semes- ter, served in the capacity of sports editors. Four members of the staff, Misses Breazeale, Cutsinger, Hoefer and Stephens, served on the staff throughout the year.

It serves not only as a laboratory for our conducting and orchestration classes but gives the students an opportunity to play and study the best in music. MUSIC FESTIVAL CHORUS AND ORCHESTRA The Festival Chorus was organized in October, 1914, and has ap- peared as a part of the Spring Music Festival every year, singing the choral works of the great masters. In the fifteen years of existence of the chorus more than twenty of the great choral works have been sung. This organization has been a great factor in developing and bringing to the student body the best in music, and not only the student body has profited by this organization but its influence has extended over this state and surrounding states.

The added enjoyment which is supplied by the searchlighted field, more than offsets the added chill of evening games; and large crowds bespeak the popularity of night games. Lights lend an impres- sive splendor to the gridiron and showed very early in the season that they would have a reign of popularity1. The illumination used on Branden- burg field is the Cahill System of Floodlighting and was installed by the Kansas Gas and Electric Company. Seventy men responded to Coach Howell when school first took up last Fall and the roll later reached 85. Nine of these were lettermen and about 50 of them were starting their football career at Pittsburg. They were start- ing the most successful season since 1924. It was “Blue” Howell’s second year as head football coach at K. S. T. C. The first encounter of the season was with Tahlequah Teachers. The game was played at the Oklahoma State Fair at Muskogee. Pittsburg swept over Tahlequah with an 18 to 0 score. The backfield showed up in a flashy man- ner and the line held strongly. The Gorillas returned in high spirits with prospects of a fine season ahead of them. Browne, Lewis, Moroconi, Kah- ler, Ewing, and McCoy did especially good work. The initial home game was played against Wichita U. A shifty Wichita backfield scored one touchdown, to win 6-0, although Pittsburg made nine first downs to her opponent's 8. A large crowd watched the game and night play- ing received a great ovation. Washburn beat Pittsburg in the fol- lowing fray by a 13 to 7 score, although the victory was stiffly contested. On October 17, the Gorillas came back with a smash. They walloped Hays Teachers on Brandenburg field, 13 to 0. About 3000 people were in the bleachers. This victory was followed by another the next week, when the squad went to Winfield and rolled over the Moundbuilders , 20 to 0. Homecoming day was a great success and the Howellmen ripped through C of E, 27 to 7. Nothing seemed to be able to stop a flashy Gorilla backfield and it was only by a long pass that Emporia scored at all. Springfield proved an easy victim and the score was 25 to 6. The Emporia Teachers game was fought in a sea of mud at Emporia. It was a thrilling battle throughout and a fine brand of football was displayed by both sides. Nearly the entire squad played in the St. Benedict game which was to close the season and Pittsburg ran rough- shod, piling up a 25 to 2 score. Charley Morgan, coach at Pittsburg High this year, will be assistant foot- ball coach at the College next year, and will act as chief coach of the line. A large number of lettermen will be back in 1931 and a very successful sea- son is anticipated for next fall.

This makes six Central conference championships for Pittsburg in the last seven years. This record does not mean that the Gorillas have had an easy schedule; neither does it mean that they won all of their games easily; but it does pay tribute to a great coach and a great team. Four of this year’s games were won by two-point margins and at least one of these will always be remembered by the students of K. S. T. C. as a battle of basketball history—the home game toith Maryville. That match required an overtime period and resulted in a 40-42 score. It was a game of tension that kills, silence that hurts, deafening yells, and blinding action. The last Southwestern game was an- other overtime contest which Pittsburg won by two points. The other two “barely won” were with Wichita and Arkansas. It was in non-conference games that Pittsburg ran up her large scores because the most one-sided score which ■she accumulated in conference compet- ition was that against C. of E. who was defeated, 49-27. Both of the Hays games kept the Gorillas extremely busy. The first was on the Hays court and resulted in a 29- 21 score, while the latter, a home game, was won 38-23. Southwestern staged two terrific bat- tles against Lance’s men, but lost the first ten points and the second by two in an overtime contest. The two Emporia '‘teams were prob- ably the easiest victims in 1930-31, since Pittsburg conquered them by large scores after Coach Lance had given “everyone a chance to play.” “Fran” Wachter, “Ole” Johnson, Bill Kincaid, Ernest Schmidt, and “Pansy” Ratzlaff were the stars but Vanek, Hackworth, Lewis, McClure, Gardner, Kahler, and Jack, came in for their share of the glory. Some of the regulars are being lost through graduation this spring but the less experienced men are fast rising to the veteran class and will fill the gaps left by the retiring seniors. Coach Lance is ready for another winning team next year. The team of 1931 “came through” un- der a strain which few teams must bear —that of consistent winning. The finely keyed athlete of the championship team can never slack up. The uninitiated can never realize the nervous tension under which a champion lives. To win and continue to win demands a good coach and a good team. PAGE 2Q3 BASKETBALL WILLIAM KINCAID, Jasper, Mo.—Senior; three letters; guard; height, 6 feet; weight, 175. “Bill” has been chosen by many as an all-conference guard, and his reliability and aggressiveness would make the choice seem well-warranted. Fast and tireless, he wades in till the last gun. FRANCIS WACHTER, Frontenac—Junior; three letters; guard; height, 6 feet four inches; weight, 175. Wachter was chosen by a number of au- thorities as being an all-conference man. He has an excellent record and has been very reliable at all times. His stellar de- fense is supplemented by extremely ac- curate passing ability. Many of his op- ponents have been held entirely scoreless. PAGE 204 BASKETBALL CLARENCE “PANSY” RATZLAFF, Buh- ler—Junior; three letters; forward; height, 6 feet; weight, 165. All-conference forward, and one of the heaviest of scorers, “Pansy” is one of the most popular of Pittsburg athletes. He is fast, receives the tip-off with a snap, and takes the ball off the backboard in a sen- sational manner. ELMER “OLE” JOHNSON, Hutchinson- Senior; four letters; forward; height, 5 feet 9 inches; weight, 156. Johnson’s side-shot scoring has been one of the most spectacular sights of Pitts- burg basketball. The little blonde speed- demon loves fast, rough playing and yanks many a game from the fire with his flashy passing and deadly shots. His games are never lost until they’re over. PAGE 205 BASKETBALL ERNEST SCHMIDT, Winfield — Sopho- more; two letters; center; height, 6 feet 3 inches; weight, 175. Schmidt is another all-conference man, being chosen as all-conference center. His accuracy under the basket is almost unri- va'ed. His goal s'hooting technique is novel and reliable. He is sure in handling the ball and few take the tip-off from him. GEORGE JACK, Chautauqua—Senior; one letter; center; height, 6 feet 3; weight, 185. George Jack is finishing his work in K. S. T. C. this spring. He is steady, reli- able, and a good man for the job when a center is in demand. His work in several of the games in the past season, while not sensational, was highly satisfactory. PAGE 206 BASKETBALL WILLIAM VANEK, Ellsworth — Junior; one letter; guard; height, 6 feet 2 inches; weight, 182. Bill Vanek has made a name for himself both on the gridiron and t'he basketball court. Although not a first team man, he played nearly upon a par with the reg- ulars and was steady and reliable at his position. WAYNE GARDNER, Louisburg—Junior; one letter; forward; height, 6 feet; weight, 165. Wayne also plays football and is an end of no mean ability. He is a hard worker and a man to rely on in anybody’s game. He played in a number of games this year. PAGE 207 BASKETBALL KENNETH McCLURE, Pittsburg—Fresh- man; one letter; forward; height, 6 feet 1 inch; weight, 175. “Andy” has just finished his first year on the crimson and gold squad and has given a very good account of himself. He has three more years of play and promises to become one of the best. CLARENCE HACKWORTH, Ulysses— Sophomore; one letter; forward; height, 6 feet; weight, 175. “Hack” has made a very good showing in his second year of college basketball and great things are expected of him in the future. His shots are accurate and his spectacular free throws of the Maryville game are basketball history. LELAND LEWIS, Newkirk, Oklahoma- Senior; four letters; guard; height, 6 feet 1 inch; weight, 190. “Babe” Lewis is not only a dependable basketball man but a pillar of strength on the football team. The students and athletic department will miss him greatly when he graduates. In addition to the sports mentioned, he is an amateur boxer of considerable reputation. IsfiSl PAGE 208 THE TRACK SEASON BY CHARLES WATERMAN In 1930 track season was said by Doc- tor Weede to have been one of the best which the Gorillas have ever had. More meets were attended and more victories were won than ever before in the his- tory of the school. The track team won all of their dual meets by tremendous scores and the relay men won at all of the big relay contests in the Middle West. Although the 1931 season is not yet completed at the time of publication, the indications point to another highly successful sea- son. The 1930 season marked the third time that the Gorillas have won the Central Conference track title. The stu- dents of Pittsburg are proud of their track team and their coach, who has played a leading role in the track suc- cesses of the past years. Doctor Weede is the grand old gentleman of Pittsburg track. The first meet for the team was the annual K. C. A. C. invitation indoor meet held in Convention Hall, Kansas City. The K. S. T. C. men made a very credit- able showing although they did not win many firsts. This is easily explained by the fact that they had had no indoor training. It was also very early in the season. The annual Indoor Illinois Relays came next and the relay men showed up much better. They won first in both the one and two mile relays and fourth in the medley. The Gorillas next went to the Texas Relays and placed in all six events entered, although they did not take any firsts. They were beaten by strong university teams which hailed from much larger schools. In dual meets, Pittsburg met no real competition. They defeated Wichita Shockers, 82 % to 42 %; the Emporia Hornets, 104 V2 to 26 V2; and ran over the Springfield Bears, 101 to 35. The two-mile relay steam sprinted in- to the limelight in the K. U. Relay Carnival, where they lowered the record to 8:02.4. A second Pittsburg team took second in the same race. Second places were taken in the mile and 880 yard relays in that meet. They entered in three events at the Drake Relays at Des Moines and won first place in both the one and two-mile relays. They barely lo-st the half-mile event when they were nosed out by the O. B. U. team. At the Ohio Relays, Weede’s men out- did all past performances when they set three new records—the half, two- mile, and the 440 yard relays. The Gorillas won their third straight conference championship at Toneka, May tenth, where they beat Wichita for first place. The winner’s score was 59 V2 points. The Pittsburgers also won their third straight interstate meet at Warrens- burg, Missouri, by a score of 58 points. It was the last meet of the season. K. S. T. C. has always been the home of championship track teams and much is always expected of our track men. Several chief performers were lost last year but their spikes were well filled this year as the records will show. PAGE 209 TRACK AND FIELD ADAM KAHLER has shown himself to be an all-around athlete and has regis- tered his letter in the weights. ROBERT SCHROEDER is a junior this year and finished earning his second letter a year ago. Bob stoops to talk to a six-footer and can high-jump ac- cordingly. He has won many points for Pittsburg in the pole-vault. He broke his -school record in the high jump when still a freshman and has been going great guns every since. PAGE 210 TRACK AND FIELD WELLINGTON TOWNER was a distance runner last year. He is now in his second year at K. S. T. C. and has proved himself to be one of the best in the conference. KERMIT SANDUSKY, slender speed de- mon from St. Joseph, is a brainy two- mile runner. Last year was his first year and he has a great future ahead of him. He was a member of the 1930 two-mile and distance medley re- lay teams. PAGE 211 TRACK AND FIELD CLARENCE RATZLAFF is well known on the basketball court and is now busv winning honors in track His specialties are the hurdles. With one year’s experience behind him, he made an enviable record last year. BEN CONARD of Pittsburg made his let- ter in the distance races and is well known in conference competition. PAGE 212 TRACK AND FIELD DALE COLE of Wichita was back again this year. He runs the half-mile and distances. A hard worker and a sticker at all times, he is admired by everyone. i— JAKE SPRING was a freshman last year. He made his letter in the low hurdles. He is living up to his reputation this season and is giving a very good ac- count of himself. He has two more years and is expected to win many more points. PAGE 213 TRACK AND FIELD LYNN KIRBY, freshman last year, had a very successful season. He was on the half and mile-relay teams. He also ran in the 440 and 220-yard dashes. SUMNER ROBERTS was one of the most successful of the first year men, and made an excellent record in the weights. Roberts1 was a three-sport man last year and a very valuable athlete all around. PAGE 214 TRACK AND HELD MAURICE GARDNER of Arma earned many points for the Gorillas. He i-s a ° ood broad jumper and specializes in that event. Last year was his third on the squad. JOY CULLISON spent several successful seasons on the cinders. He ran in the half, one, and two-mile relay teams. “Slick” specialized on the half and quarter. He was greatly missed by the athletic department. PAGE 215 TRACK AND FIELD ELLSWORTH BRIGGS was a junior last year. He earned his letter in the pole vault and is still going over quite reg- ularly in 1931. ROWLEN KEITHLY, after a rather slow start in college track, finished his four years here in a blaze of limelight. He was a member of both the half and quarter-mile relays� . He also set a fast pace in the 100 and 220-yard dashes. PAGE 216 TRACK AND HELD CLIFFORD MADISON of Hutchinson was the star of the squad. He and Joe Win- chester were Pittsburg’s highest point winners. He majors in the broad and high jump, but does nearly everything. He is truly a great track man. Last year was his second year in school and C-iff is still going great guns. PALMER SNODGRASS was back again this year and is a sensational runner. He ran in the quarter, half, and mile- relay teams. He also runs the 440, 220, and 100. PAGE 217 TRACK AND FIELD JOE WINCHESTER’S accomplishments will remain in the minds of track fans for many years. He was a member of both the medley and two-mile relay teams in 1930 which was his gradua- tion year. He won honors in the half- mile and is teaching this- year. JAMES WANER has made a name for himself in four years of Pittsburg track. He has gained a reputation in the relays and has run the mile and two- mile in very fast time. His absence is greatly felt by the track team this season. PAGE 218 TRACK AND FIELD EARL “CHUB” GREEN finished his final year of K. S. T. C. track competition last year. He was one of the most valuable men on the squad. “Chub’s” specialties were the discus and the shot. His home town is Kincaid. PAGE 219 INTRAMURAL It is the purpose of the Intramural branch of the Physical Educa- tion Department to encourage and facilitate the participation of the men of the student-body in organized athletic sports and wholesome, active recreation. Following this ideal of mass athletics, we have adopt- ed the Sports Creed—“A Sport for Every Man and Every Man in a Sport.” In 1924, it was found that approximately 150 men took part in semi- organized intramural basket ball, wrestling, baseball, and track, or about 20 per cent to 25 per cent of the men enrolled in school. At the present time, out of about 500 men, over 400 are taking part in one or more of our 16 sports activities, or slightly more than 80 per cent From a total of 150 in 1924, we find that 1557 men enrolled in the vari- ous activities in 1930-31. Of course, many are duplications, but every activity is optional except the Physical Efficiency Tests taken by all freshmen and sophomores. These figures, alone, exhibit the excellent showing which is being made by the department. The latest innovation in the department is the installation of a participation scoring system, with the hopes of presenting a challenge trophy to the organization scoring the greatest number of points during the year. The adoption of this system is a strong drawing med’um, and since scoring is based on participation, sportsmanship is shown in all contests. The numbers competing in the 16 activities are as follows: Speed ball, 128; touch football, 90; basket ball, 160; volley ball, 120; play- ground ball, 150; water polo, 80; track and field, 100; tennis 50; swim- ming (meet and recreational), 100; golf, 32; horseshoes, 40; wrestling, 30; free throw tourney, 32; hand ball, 25; physical efficiency tests 300; and Red Cross life saving, 50. There are also about 32 -seasonal sport teams playing in the various gym classes. An Intramural council was formed this year, composed of man- agers of various organizations; Coach George Walker, director; and L. E. Rountree, assistant. A Protest Committee was also elected, com- posed of Coach Walker, Wayne Campbell, Floyd Ooley. Coach Walker wishes to acknowledge due credit to L. E. Rountree, student assistant in Intramural work and to the physical education majors who also generously aided in handling the various activities.
