THE POWER OF THE PE n| IS MADE MANIFEST CONTENTS V iews Administration Classes Social Organizations Popularity Athletics Honorary Organizations Advertisements TUE PEN IS MIGHTIER THANTUt SWORD Dear Elsie: Maybe college isn’t going to be so bad after all. They wouldn’t let them paddle us poor freshmen this year and so far they haven’t made us work so hard, some of the juniors and seniors are working on their studies but I think that there is still plenty of time for that yet. Love, , Johnnie Page 11 Dear Elsie: I'm just beginning: to wonder about all of this studying. Some of these profs expect you to be ready for a test any time they make up their minds to give one. I really think they ought to tell us a little bit ahead of time. We had an all school party last Friday and I had a pretty good time, but you should have been there. Love, Johnnie Page 13 Dear Elsie: Light of my life, we had our home-coming celebration here last Friday. I had a big time_____ stayed out almost all night! All the frats and so- rorities were decorated fit to kill. Someday I hope to join one—a frat, I mean. Love, Johnnie Page 15 Dear Mom: I've really been so busy that I haven't had time to write. I’ve been studying pretty hard and I think that my grades will be above average. Say Mom, I think that I could stand about five bucks it you could spare it. Love, Johnnie Pago 17 Dear Elsie: It won’t be long now until I will be finding out how smart I am and I’m beginning to wonder if I’ve done my share of the studying. At least i haven’t received any invitation from Dean Trout. Love, Johnnie Dear Elsie: You have never seen such tests as they can give in this school. They are really dangerous. I’m afraid that I should have started studying just a little sooner in this semester. I think that I’ll start right in at the first of next semester and make good grades Love, Johnnie Page 21 Dear Elsie: I will be graduating soon now—only three more years. The commencement exercises were grand. Everything went smoothly except that each Senior for some reason or other flipped the tassel of his cap just as he passed Brandenburg and the other big shots on the platform. How rude of them! Love, Johnnie Your work shows not enough preparation.

The members of this board are appointed by the Governor of the State. Members of The State Board of Regents visit the various state colleges and universities frequently and seek to bring about all the functions of the state schools into an effective educational program.

P 'SBUR Page 27 The President It is a few years only since any one who had been reasonably successful in teaching could obtain a position in our better high schools regardless of whether they had a degree or not. But times have changed, and standards along with them have changed. In a recent inquiry sent to the superintendents of all cities of the first class in Kansas ninety-nine per cent replied. Of those replying ninety per cent stated, that other things being equal they preferred candidates with master’s degrees to those with- out. The keen competition in the profession has forced many college graduates into other lines of industry where they have “made good” to the extent that they are in demand as administrators and workers in places that were considered foreign fields to the college men a short time ago. These opportunities make the outlook brighter for the able college man than it has ever been before. W. A. Brandenburg, President TUE [[N-TUIRIT FDUPi KANZA Page 28 THE DEAN OF THE COLLEGE Greetings: The management of the annual has invited me to extend to all who may gaze upon the pages of this book, greetings as Dean of the College, These greetings are especially directed to all those who do not have an opportunity to meet me in person. I enjoy the personal interviews which enable us to know each other better. KANJAMTA G. W. TROUT Dean of the College t THE DEAN OF WOMEN For twenty years we’ve watched this “passing by our door”. Our thoughts have often played truant back to those whose devotion and enthusiasm paid the price of the K. S. T. T. C. slogan: “All are ordained for service—by the white hand of love—the hard hand of toil —or the black hand of sorrow.” God grant this may ever be the challenge of your Alma Mater. MRS. HATTIE MOORE MITCHELL, Dean of Women T UE-NINETEEN-TNIRTT-FOUR-KANZA Pak 30 THE DEAN OF MEN The duties of a dean of men are related to many phases of college life. Some are pleasant, some are otherwise. Fortunately the attitude of our faculty and of our student body are such that the enjoyable tasks far outnumber the disagreeable ones, for which I feel grateful to the many friends whom I have met at K. S. T. C. R. W. HART Dean of Men Page 31 GENERAL OFFICE Belle Provorse “Let the office take care of it!” Years of experience have taught students and professors alike that the general office will efficiently handle any administrative problem. Little if any thought is ever given to the tremendous amount of work detailed to Miss Provorse and her assistants. The office has charge of all finance matters, tuition, fees, admissions to athletics, contests, con- certs, plays, loan funds. Federal relief funds, dormitory rents, cafeteria receipts, and the rout ne process entailed in the expenditure of such funds. To render service is one thing. To render service courteously is another. Thousands of questions are cheerfully answered by the office staff and valuable assistance rendered in innumberable ways. REGISTRAR The Registrar’s Office is of vital importance to each and every student who attends K. S. T. C. Safely housed in its fire-prdof vault are the high school and college records of the students. As these are permanent, our concern is that each student may strive to make his record as nearly perfect as possible. The office force deem it a privilege to be of service to students, faculty, and friends of the inst tution. EXTENSION The purpose of the Extension Department is to carry service to the people of the state and to provide educational opportunity for those unable to attend college. This opportunity is offered in the form of correspondence courses, extension classes, and general educational information. •T E. E. Stonecipher Extension Director U h - KANZA Page 32 RESEARCH The last word in any field touching: human wel- fare has never and will never be said. The range of possible knowledge is too vast. The preservation of humankind must depend upon the constant search for truth. This is the philosophy that motivates the Bu- reau of Research at this State Teachers College. This bureau gathers educational facts touching the ac- tivities of this school, the schools of the state and the nation. So far as possible, these facts are tabu- lated and interpreted. The bureau for many years has also distributed psychological and emotional tests to public schools and given advice in their administration and inter- pretation. Such are the reasons for justifying its existence. Edgar Nelson Mendenhall, A. M. Y. M. C. A. The College Y.M.C.A. attempts to develop an adequate philosophy of life and a sane view of current social, economic, and political problems through its weekly forums, retreats, and cabinet meetings. With this end in view, the organization presented a series of speakers, who. through their experience and wide preparation in various fields, were able to help the students secure a balanced philosophy and informed attitude on many questions. Y. W. C. A. When one realizes “the power of the pen”, he feels a qualm over-take him when he attempts to put even a word on a page; yet realizing the far reach of the words which go into the Kanza, it's certainly an opportunity to send a greeting to all those now on our beloved K.S.T.C. Campus, to all those who have been here, and to those who anticipate coming—to each of you the Y.W.C.A. sends a word of remembrance and of cheer. Jennie C. Walker, A. B. George D. Small, B. S. KANSAS 5TAT E TEACHERS Page S3 Maude Simpson Manager Annie Marriott, M. A. Director K. S. T. C. CAFETERIA When we read “Chapter I—K. S. T. C. Cafeteria” We recall one room in Industrial Arts Building, a small gas stove, Mrs. Maud Simpson, with three student helpers, serving one meal a day on rudely made tables. That was twenty years ago. Today, students enjoy the commodious din- ing room, equipped with all modern conveniences. The annex is an im- portant factor in social functions apart from the regular service. The students appreciate the quality of food and high type of service is evidenced by the long lines on either side, waiting to be served—A1 a carte or Table d’hote. RUSS HALL HISTORY The department of history and social sciences wishes to extend to its many friends, alumni, and majors in the department a very cordial greeting. In spite of the depression, the enrollment in the department has been very heavy, due to the fact that students are beginning to realize the great im- portance of a knowledge of the historical, social, political, and economic principles which underlie all progress. Today is a day of greater need for men and women who are familiar with the above fields than at any day since the adoption of the constitu- tion of the United States, The department is not only offering work in the above fields for undergraduate students upon a high level, but also for graduate students in history on an equally high level. Our department staff remains as of last year. G. W. Trout, head of the department, Elizabeth Coch- ran, Earnest Mahan, Lulu McPherson, O. F. Grubbs, O. A. Barr, J. C. Straley, and F. N. Howell, all of whom desires to greet you personally as well as the representatives of the department. KAN AWIAIE-TEAM Page 35 G. W. Trout, A.M. COMMERCE The principal aim of the Department of Commerce and Bu iness Administration is tha preparation of teachers to tea'h commercial subjects in the high schools of the country. In response, however, to a fiTOV. ing demand, the department was authorized (w) years ago to add a Business Administration Curriculum, the purpose of which is to train young people for positions other than that of teaching, This has proved to be a popular course and despite the period of economic stress, the department has experienced an increase in enrollment over that of two years ago by more than 38 percent. Next year two new subjects are being added, a course in Auditing and one in Personnel Management. The teaching staff of the department consists of six members as follows: W. S. Lyerla, Head of the Department Willa M. Dush, L. C. Guffey, J. U. Massey, Lillian I. Miller, and Hallie Bennington. Walter Samuel Lyerla, A. M. It is our wish to be of service to all alike and sincerely hope that whenever the student body and alumni can make use of our services, they will not hesitate to cal! on us. ENGLISH Since it is recognized that writing is an art, every effort is made to give each student the help his individual case demands. The courses in rhetoric aim to develop the student’s powers of expression in writing, to arouse his interest in better forms of writing, and to initiate independent action on his own part. During the last biennium every effort has been made to eliminate any excess baggage in courses. Several new courses have been added where old ones seemed to have outlived thefr usefulness. The courses for the master’s degi-ee have undergone the most changes. Courses in beginning rhetoric have also been added to those offered by correspondence. Pa :e VKANZA The enrollment in the department shows but little depreciation despite the de- pression. At present there are 110 majors with a total pupil load of 718. So far we have not felt the strain of the depression except in lower salaries� Our needs are quite well satisfied. The departmental faculty: I. G. Wilson, Tyson Wyckoff, J.

EDUCATION It is the function of the Department of Educa- tion to provide the professional training required of teachers, supervisors and administrators in the public schools of Kansas. Professional standards for teachers are advanc- ing rapidly. Beginning next fall, to qualify for the principalship of an accredited high school in Kansas, one must “have earned a minimum of eight semester hours of graduate credit in professional courses re- lating to secondary organization, administration, and supervision.” The superintendent of an accredited high school district in Kansas, who has not had at least two years of administrative experience, must have earned thirty semester hours of graduate cred- it in educational courses relating to elementary and secondary work. The Department of Education, through its graduate curriculum in school adminis- tration, offers courses which fulfill the new require- ments. A new course in Secondary School Adminis- C, W. Street, Ph. D. tration has been added for the benefit of those interested in a high school principalship. The staff of the Department of Education for the present year is as follows: C. W. Street, Head of Department, D. M. Bowen. E. N. Mendenhall, Ralph A. Fritz, Ernest M. Anderson, Hattie Moore-Miteh- ell, W. E. Matter, Edna Hays, Temple Hill, Hallie Bennington, E. E. Stonecipher, Flora E. Holyroyd, Jane Carroll, Ethel Moore Peck, Velda Williams, Thelma Carnagcy, Avis Grawe, Daph'.ne Cross, Gladys Rinehart, Callie King. The fellowship in the department is held by John R. Darling. KANSAS • STATE-TEAM - C01LEK- PHI® Pase :V FOREIGN LANGUAGES Listen, prospective grand opera stars! According to a recent broadcast, every member of the New York Metropolitan Opera chorus can sing in five languages and almost every member can speak them. The relation between the language and the thought of a nation is particularly close. Just as its history shows the facts of its progress, so its literature shows its larger and most characteristic thoughts, its philosophy and analysis of those thoughts, and its language the mould in wh:ch those thoughts are cast. International continuity depends largely on those who can interpret to other nations these thoughts and their analysis and can recast the foreign mould into the familiar one. Today more students than ever are confronted with the problem of a reading knowledge of one or more foreign languages. In consequen t our French remains strong, and our German has nearly doubled over last year. Spanish also continues strong, but we are giving less Latin. French and Spanish clubs are again flourishing; Miss Howe's students have given a public program in French and Mr. Pease's students have given class programs in German. Samuel James Pease, Ph. D. Once more we give oTur heartiest greetings to friends new and old. MATHEMATICS J. A. G. Shirk, M. S. The nature of mathematics is twofold. On the one hand it deals with the quantitative relations be- tween material objects and thus it is an indispen- sible tool in the realms of business, economics, and science. On the other hand, it develops sequences of theorems in logical order without any regard to whether the results of these investigations have any immediate or future practical utility. The department of mathematics presents both of these aspects of mathematics as essential to the training of teachers of mathematics. Courses in as- tronomy, investment theory, statistics, and surveying are offered because of the utilitarian aspect of mathematics shown in these courses. Each student majoring in mathematics is expected to include several of these courses in a major. The beauty of mathematics is seen both in its pure logic and in the service it renders as a means of expressing the laws and relations of the universe. The mathematical fraternity, Kappa Mu Epsilon, is a valuable agency in developing an appreciation of mathematics. U E NINCTOK-TUIRTT-FOUR KANZA Pa e 38 RURAL EDUCATION Rural Education is one of the important factors in the rehabilitation of our national life. It includes not only the open-country elementary schools, but also the secondary and elementary schools of the rural trade-centers—the county seat towns and country villages. These towns are largely dependent upon agricultural support and their school popula- tion is chiefly rural. Too little attention is given to the training of teachers and school administrators for this most important phase of education. The division of rural education offers a two year curriculum for the training of rural elementary teachers and other subjects of senior college rank which will heighten the appreciation and understand- ing of secondary teachers and administrators who expect to labor in the consolidated schools and the towns supported by the rural interests. Through its publication “The Gleaner,” and in other ways the staff attempts to assist teachers in the field, in their classroom and community problems. Ernest E. Stonecipher, M. S. . , The two members of the staff are: E. E. Stone- cipher, Director, and Flora E. Holroyd, Assistant Professor of Rural Education, both of whom have had experience and special training in the field of Rural Education. Psychology and Philosophy The growth of the science of psychology may be measured by its extended applications in the solu- tion of problems of household, law, medicine, crimi- nology and industry. Also the science and art of teaching is based upon the science of psychology. Established seven years ago, the department has enjoyed a rapid growth. It now offers a major of 30 hours leading to the B. S. degree in Education; a 30 hour major leading to the A. B. degree; a 20 hour minor in an A. B. degree; and a 15 hour minor in the B. S. degree with a major in any other aca- demic department. It also offers work leading to the Master of Science degree and to the degree of Master of Science in Education with a major in Psychology and Philosophy and a minor in Education. A minor also may be taken in the department with a major in any other department that offers a Master of Science degree. The department wishes to serve the student in every possible way.

John R. Pelsma, Ph. M. GEOGRAPHY Because of the fundamental and pervasive character of the geographic element in human af- fairs, fostering success when recognized and utilized, and failure when misunderstood and ignored, ge- ography occupies a position of prime importance in education and in the conduct of human affairs. Geographic relationships are inherent and basic in the location and expansion of all the world industries and institutions. The geographer is the engineer who knows upon what hidden piles and caissons the poli- tical, economic, or social structure is or should be raised and who suggests utilization, adaptation or ad- justment of physical conditions. The underlying principles of geography are unchanging. It is the aim of the staff of the department to organize the courses of instruction in such a manner that the student not only may understand the principles themselves but their application in the lives of the world peoples in their attempt to fit themselves in- to their own particular environment—thus creating a friendly sympathetic attitude to all people of the world. The geography department greets you and wishes you well. Eulalia E. Roseberry, C. 0.

This unit cov- ers the work of the seventh to twelfth grades in- clusive. This training school is used as a laboratory for the training of college students in their major fields preparatory to their going out into the teach- ing profession. It is well staffed by highly qualified supervisors who are experimenting with the latest methods in teaching. The students enjoy the use of the well- equipped, commodious college buildings and labora- tory equipment, including the college gymnasium and the Porter Library. Opportunity is provided for participation in the usual high-school activities, such as musical organizations, dramatics athletics and clubs. W. E. Matter M. S. CARNEY HALL MHlM-TEAm nn LULL :uc BIOLOGY In this age of an ever increasing complexity of living one is confronted with the difficult problem of making a harmonious happy and profitable ad- justment to a rapidly changing social order. Because so many of the factors involved in surh an adjust- ment are of a biological nature, or are intimately associated with biological phenomenon, the necessity of a thorough understanding and appreciation of the fundamentals of Biology is becoming more apparent. It is with this thought in mind that the work of the department of Biology in K. S. T. C. is organ- ized and conducted. The department has experienced a very pleasant and, we feel, satisfactory year’s activity, although we have been handicapped by the temporary absence of our “chief”, Dr. 0. P. Dellinger. i Oris P. Dellinger, Ph. D. PHYSICAL SCIENCES The events of the past decade have pointed unmistakably to the beginning of a new era, an age of chemistry. In the past the increased requirements for the necessities of life,—food, clothing, and shelter,—have been met largely by in- creasing the tilled acreage, or the de- mand upon nature’s stored resources. Recent developments indicate that slowly but surely the natural processes of for- mation of most necessities are being replaced by new rapid synthetic processes capable of unlimited expansion,—the result of scientific study. These discoveries exert a tre- mendous effect upon economic conditions which is reflected through every other phase of our existence. To live intelligently in such a transitional age demands a knowledge of the fundamen- tal principles of the sciences involved in the change. This department is organized to L. C. Ileckert, Ph. D. T Pasre 42 V KANZA teach these fundamental principles and their application. It is essential that both tea- chers and industrial workers thoroughly understand these basic principles, as well as se- cure the training of accurate organized thinking and doing, in order to contribute their bit to the continuation and advancement of civilization. The members of this department, Dr. L. C. Heckert, Dr. W. B. Parks, Dr. O. W. Chap- man, Professors Margaret Coventry, G. E. Abernathy, William H. Matthews, and E. W. Jones greet you and extend to you their best wishes. HOME ECONOMICS Josephine A. Marshall, A. M. There is no vocation that claims the services of a greater number of people than does homemaking. We are born into homes, we live most of our lives in homes, and sooner or later the large majority of us make homes. There is no vocation on which the happiness and comfort of a larger group of people depend. Modern homemaking draws upon a broad back- ground of practical information and skills, of science and of art. The primary function of the home economics department of the college is to prepare teachers of homemaking, but in accomplishing this aim it also reaches its secondary goal of preparing young women to live their present lives more abun- dantly and to conduct their future homemaking more successfully. STAIE-TEACM Fasre 43 HORACE MANN The Horace Mann Training- School is a complete elementary school containing the Kindergarten and first six grades. The purpose of this school is two- fold: to aid the child to live in a satisfying way, and to train students who expect to teach in the elemen- tary grades of the public schools. Each grade has a suite of three rooms and is supervised by a super- visory teacher who has been trained for the double duty of training students to teach and of teaching children. The supervising principal directs the school. “Student teaching” is the most important profes- sional course in the teacher training program. It demands of the student a social as well as an in- dividual responsibility, and a realization that he can serve his own interests best only by serving well the group that he is helping to teach. The recommendation he will receive as a teacher de- pends on the way he meets these demands. The Horace Mann faculty consists of: Jane M. Carroll, Principal; Callie King, sixth grade super- visor; Gladys Rinehart, fifth grade supervisor; Daphne Cross, fourth grade supervisor; Avis Grawe, third grade supervisor; Thelma Carnagey, second grade supervisor; Velda Williams, first grade super- visor; and Ethel Moore-Peek, kindergarten super- visor. Jane M. Carroll, A. M. h-KANZA LIBRARY Odella Nation, B. S. Books and library service are an essential part of any educational institution. In the library students and faculty may find information that will help them to know and to understand what is going on in the world today. “When people read they begin to reason, and when they reason they progress.” For reference and research work, a large and valuable collection of reference books is provided. To en- courage recreational reading, one of the alcoves in the main reading room lias been fitted up as a “browsing” corner. Here are books on all subjects— books the student would like to read if he had time. Our aim is “To make books useful and more used.” The library staff consists of Odel la Nation, Li- brarian, Anise Sandford, Mary B. Sherfy, and Esther Park. KANSAS-STA' INDUSTRIAL ARTS BUILDING ART The aim of the Art Department is: to prepare students to meet the demands of the public school for supervisors and departmental teachers of art; and, to train those who wish to enter the com- mercial field. Practical courses in the crafts are offered. These consist of Art Metal, Jewelry, Bookbinding, Basket- ry, Pottery, and Leather. Other classes are those in Art Education, Drawing and Composition, Poster. Design, Art Appreciation, and History of Art. Graduates of the department are teaching in surrounding towns of Kansas, and neighboring states, and in some of the larger cities of the East. Others, specializing in some particular line of work, are now holding positions in the commercial world. The College Art Club, organized in 1921, con- tinues its custom of bringing worthwhile exhibitions to the campus. It has been the aim of the Club to sponsor monthly exhibits and lectures during the school year. This winter the following one-man ex- hibits have been held: work of Helen Waskey Em- bree, a former student; Mrs. Katherine B. Usry of Columbus, Ohio; and Mrs. Constance Arveson, of Pittsburg. A display of the works of Kansas artists was also held. A series of valuable art lectures have also been given by Miss Ethelwyn Miller of Indian- apolis, Miss Bertha A. Spencer, Professor 0. A. Hankammer, and others. Page -Ifi Elsie Leiteh Bowman, B. S. 1 • KANZA INDUSTRIAL EDUCATION Significant and numerous changes have taken place during the last twenty-five or thirty years in the field of Industrial Education. These changes in- volve terminology, philosophy, deflation of objects, and methods of construction. Those who have labored in this department have a happy consciousness of having contributed to the promotion of those for- ward movements and are also mindful of the task of safe guarding and maintaining the reputation which has been builded ’.n this department of teacher training. The economic depression, thru wh’ch we now seem to b'' emerging, lessened the demand for industrial teachers, but perhaps no more than for teachers in other fields. We are certain that the demand is re- newing and increasing, and that it will be only a short while until the demands upon the department will again exceed the supply. A. H. Whitesitt, A. M.

Nevins, and F. 0. Runyon. PRINTING The printing department is one of the most efficiently operated units of the college, the volume of school printing jobs makes it necessary for the professors and students of printing to spend many extra hours in the College printing department in order to finish a given job on time. The shop is managed on the basis of a real commercial plant, providing valuable practical experience for the students, except that the emphasis is placed upon education. The production of the 1934 Kanza, Music Festival pamphlet and literature, Collegio, Gleaner, Teehne, and other numerous jobs for the school constitutes the bulk of the de- partmental work. WOODWOORKING The Woodworking division of the Industrial Arts Department is made up of the fol- lowing shop units: Bench Woodwork, Cabinet Making, Pattern Making, Finishing, Mill- work, Wood Turning, Foundry and shop for Junior and Senior High School practice teaching. In Bench Woodwork the aim is to teach the skills and informations pertaining to hand tools used in woodworking. These skills in relation to that trade are taught in Pat- tern Making and Foundry. The art of Cabinet Making is emphasized in that particular course while in Milhvork the furniture and equipment for the institution is produced. The articles made in all the shops are finished in the Finishing course. MACHINE SHOP The Machine Shop is equipped with machines and hand tools necessary for giving the students an insight into the fundamental techniques and methods used in the metal working industries. The content of the courses offered is arranged to give the student a knowledge of the following types of related materials: the reading of drawings, the designing of mach- mwiA EACH ERA P Ee 47 ine parts, oxy-acetylene welding, various alloys and their use, and the standards used in tools and materials. Through practice the student is brought to carefully consider the following funda- mental points: the specifications, the machines suitable for doing the work, the tools to be used, and the sequence of operations. DRAWING The courses offered in drafting include Mechanical, Engineering, Freehand, Archi- tectural, Furniture, Machine, and Geometrical. Both the theory and practice treatment are offered in all of the courses. Instruction in practice is given by examples, wherin problems are arranged in se- quence to form a graded series beginning with the simplest to the most intricate and difficult problems. Working drawings are produced from models and the work becomes very interesting to the future draftsman. The success of such students depends on their ability to analyze subject matter. The students are under the supervision of Prof. O. A. Hankhammer, and Prof. E. W. Baxter.

Day trade classes are conducted in six of the Kansas cities. The director. Mr. Parker, travels about 30,000 miles a year making personal contact with superin- tendents and teachers. We have a well equipped office in the Mechanic Arts Building and issue from time to time service bulletins to teachers of trade classes and local directors of evening classes. Through cooperation of the Department of Printing at the College, we are able to issue from time to time vocational bulletins which will help in the promotion and better under- standing on the part of the people of Kansas just what opportunities are available for vocational work ;n the local communities. We fill requests from every state in the Union, Porto Rico, Hawaii, and even have filled requests from Soviet Russia. The staff Lawrence Parker, Director; Norma Tomasi, Secre- tary.

Walter McCray, head of the School of Music, es- tablished the Festival in 1915 and it has grown until it is now recognized as the princi- pal event of its kind in this part of the country. The World War, the post-war boom, and the depression—none of these things have been permitted to cancel the Festival even one year. The Festival Orchestra, sixty-six instruments strong and recognized as one of the finest amateur organizations in the country again opened the Festival with a specially prepared concert. Three unusual recitals were again found in this year's festival. Arthur Hackett, famous tenor, gave a recital that annually presents a nationally-knowri artist to Festi- val patrons. Philipp Abbas, one of the world's few great cellists, was presented in re- cital. His audiences, always quickly recognize that they are listening to a genius. An interesting Sunday afternoon recital was given by Edna Swanson Ver Haar, contralto, and Stanley Deacon, bass, members of the Festival quartet of vocal artists. This year marked the presentation of a modern oratorio, “Rora Novissima,” written by Horatio Parker. Mr. McOray had under his baton both the Festival Chorus of 250 voices and the Festival Orchestra to perform what is probably the most interesting and remarkable musical composition of its kind in several decades. The four vocalists: Arthur Hackett, Tenor; Edna Swanson Van Haar, Contralto; Helen Freund, Soprano; Stanley Deacon, Bass. The anrtual performance of Handel’s great oratorio, “The Messiah,” closed the Festival Sunday night. The same quartet of artists appeared. Mi . McCray put into this concei t all the musical resources of the Festival Chorus and Orchestra, with the years of training under his baton that many of their members have.

If the occasion occurs, we want her to be trained to organize a leisure time and health pro- gram for the people of her community, and to estab- lish these on an educational basis. The department sponsors intra-mural athletics for all the women in college, the Physical Education Major Club, The Kwak Kiub, the Dance Club, and the Women's Athletic Association. The members of the staff are: Irma Gene Nev- ins, Hazel Cave, Ruth Wilson and Lucille Hatlestad. Page 52 KANZA MEN’S Physical Education G. W. Weede, D. D. S. The purpose of the Physical Education Department for men is to provide system- atic forms of daily exercise and dean wholesome sport. In doing this it is our aim to produce never-flagging loyalty, high ideals, the spirit of unselfish co-operation, un- erring execution of orders, and the ability to think swiftly and accurately. This department also has charge of all inter-collegiate athletics, including foot- ball, basketball, track, tennis, and golf. The ability of our coaches to turn out winning teams is manifest by the high regard for the teams representing Kansas State Teachers College, Pittsburg. The football team this year ended with a percentage well above the .500 mark, an achievement to be proud of considering the strong teams that were played. The success of the basketball team is readily illustrated by the fact that this is the first year since 1929 that Pittsburg has not won or tied for the conference title. The loss of a dual track meet requires going back into the dim dark pasts, and is is unusual for the Gorilla Track Team to come home without a few records tucked away; they have several Conference records and records at nearly all of the major relay carnivals. Special theory and practice in athletics and physical education courses are offered, the completion of which prepares students to direct such activities in schools and col- leges, More and more is this phase of education being stressed and the department is gratified at the success of its men now out in the teaching profesion. The department faculty consists of: Garfield W. Weede, Head of Department and Track Coach; Edward “Blue Howell, Football Coach; John F. Lance, Basketball Coach; Charles Morgan, Supervisor of Intra-mural Athletics. K4N HJA EAMHKE-PITTM Pstue fill Hattie Moore Mitchell, A. M. Director i Inez L. Risk House Director WILLARD HALL •T In January, 1923, a group of college girls moved into the new K.S.T.C, home. Willard Hall, made possible by the generous appropriate of the state legislature; and for eleven years, sounds of happy voices calling: “Parlor” —“Phone”—“Special,” etc. have rung through the halls. Daily papers and numerous magazines fill the reading shelves. Typewriter, dictionary, encyclopedia, bid her “who runs to read,” The dean of women and house director live up to the challenge: “All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy, All play and no work makes Jill a mere toy,” Pane 54 • KANZA CLASS OF MAIHJARET BLACKETT Pittsburg Commerce Pi Kappa Sigma LOIS SMART Pittsburg Commerce Pi Kappa Sigma FRED STAMBACH Osborne Industrial Arts Kappa Delta Kappa JOE ROCK Pittsburg Business Adm.

Morgan, the Crimson and Gold Gridsters finished their 1933 football season with four victories, three defeats and two sdoreless ties. In Conference competition the Gorillas won two games, lost two, and tied two. In Non-Conference battles they won two out of three. Wichita won the Con- ference title with a clean sweep of six victories while Hays finished second and Wash- burn and Pittsburg- tied for third. Although the Gorillas finished third in the Conference, no team scored over seven points against them this season. They had one of the finest defensive teams in the Conference and in the latter part of the season developed one of the best offensive teams in the Conference. Sixty men reported for practice at the beginning of the season including eighteen lettermen. The Gorillas journeyed to Maryville for the opening game of the season, Sept. 29, to meet the Maryville Bearcats in a Non-Conference game. Pittsburg won from the Bearcats by a large margin of 33-6 with Kenneth Young featured in the offensive attack making three touchdowns while T.ms and Jawing collected one each. In the initial Conference game of the season at Pittsburg, Oct. 6, the Gorillas downed the Southwestern Moundbuijders i4-2. Dellon, McCoy, Moriconi and Young were outstanding on offense while Hawley and Roberts were outstanding in defense. On Oct. 14, Pittsburg played Hays Teachers at Hays. They battled to a scoreless tie on a muddy field. Tnc Gorillas threatened in the second half when Moriconi ran 4U yards to put the ball in scoring distance out they were unable to make the counter. The home coming game, Oct. 20, with Washburn brought Pittsburg their first defeat. The Washburn icnabous downed the Gorinas o-O m one of the hardest fought battles oi the season. Pntsourg m.ssea chances to score in both the nrst and second half, m the first half, Pittsburg marched down the field from their own 40-yard line to the id-yard line but were suoppeu. in the latter part oi the second half Kman took a bullet pass from McCoy to the 4-yard line anti again the Crimson and Gold men were held back nom the goal fine, Oct. 27, Pittsburg dropped another game to Wichita University by the slight margin of 7-u, at Wichita. Both ucams battled on even terms tor tnree quarters but m the lading minutes of the last quarter Wichita uroKe inrough tor a touenuown that won the game. On Nov. 4, Pittsburg played the strong College oi Emporia to a scoreless tie. The game was played on a muddy field at Emporia. The Gorilla line was the out- standing feature oi the game, lliey neiu me rmipona team uacK irom the goal line many times. DeBon, Mc oy and Myers were outstanding in the backfield. Pittsburg won their last Conference battle, Nov. 17, on Brandenburg F.eld, beating Emporia Teachers by the decisive score oj 2i-u. This was the largest score any team had ever made against the Hornets. McCoy, DeHpn and Mor.com did great work in the backfield while Wells and Roberts were outstanding in the line. On the afternoon of Nov. 24, Pittsburg lost to Kirksville Teachers of Kirksville, Missouri in a Non-Conference game by the score of 7-0. Pittsburg gained a total of 215 yards as compared to 191 yards by the Missouri State Champions. The outstanding features of the game was the punting of Chris Julian and Bob Myers. Tims and Bethel played a great game at ends and “Tiny” Wells was the outstanding performer in the line. Pittsburg climaxed their football season by defeating Simpson College, Champ- ions of Iowa, Thanksgiving day, by a score of 19-13. The brilliant passing of Paul McCoy was the feature attraction of the game. The pass from McCoy to Tims in the closing minutes of the game won the battle for Pittsburg. Ewing and Moriconi were outstanding in line smashes. Pittsburg seemed to find themselves in the last game and played the finest brand of football during the season. Next season should be a winning season for the Gorillas with only a few lettermen lost through graduation and many new candidates for the team.

Morgan, the Pittsburg Gorilla basketeers finished their 1933 basketball season with a percentage of .600, twelve victories and eight defeats in Conference and Non-Conference competition. It was the first season that Pittsburg has not finished in first place in the conference since 1921), when they finished in third place. Coach Lance has won or tied for eight Conference t ties since he has been coaching here. The Gorillas lost their last game this season to the Washburn Ichabods which put them into third place with Hays Teachers. The Southwestern Moundbuilders finished second and Emporia Teachers won the Conference championship with only one defeat. Eleven players received letters this year including: Jess Eastman, Kenneth “Andy” McClure. Lawrence Royer, John Edwaids, Bob Myers, Fred Baker, Perry Owsley, Eu- gene Tims, George Harris, Augie Garcia, and Sumner Roberts. i The loss of Ernest “One Grand Schmidt through graduation was a hard blow to the Pittsburg team and due to illness, Jess Eastman was not in his usual form, the Gorillas strength was built around the guards, Johnny Edwards and Bob Myers. Johnny Edwards for the second year was picked as All-Conference guard. Bob Myers received honorable mention on the All-Conference team. Kenneth McClure, who could always be depended on to score his share of the points, was picked as forward on the second all- star team. The starting five was composed of Jess Eastman, Kenneth “Andy” McClure, Bob Myers, Johnny Edwards, and Lawrence Royer. Fred Baker played at regular center until Lawrence Royer became eligible at the start of the second semester. Jess Eastman, a tall and rangy boy who hails from Anderson, Missouri was hamp- ered by illness a great part of the season but despite the fact, he made a good majority of the points for the team this season. Eastman is a Junior. Kenneth “Andy” McClure, who was a Pittsburg High product, made a fine showing this season. His floor work and goal shooting was outstanding, McClure is a Junior. Bob Myers from Winfield is a Junior this year. Myers was a very impressive guard this year both on offense and defense. Although Myers was short in stature he held many of the best players on the opposing teams scoreless from the field. Johnny Edwards, who for the past two years has been considered as the best guard in the Central Conference, is a sophomore from Newton. Edwards is to be praised for his ability to handle a basketball in the uncanny fashion in which he does. The high scoring players of the opposing teams always found Johnny guarding them and he usually managed to hold them to a few points. Lawrence Royer is a sophomore from Newton who got a late start this season due to ineligibility for changing from one school to another. Royer attended school at Kansas University last year and to become eligible here he had to be in school one semester. The big boy from Newton played fine defensive ball and with an earlier start next year he is expected to be one of the outstanding centers in the conference. Before Royer became eligible Fred Baker played the pivot position. Baker starred with College High of Pittsburg in his senior year and although still being young he was capable of making the center position in the first semester. Fred will be back next season and may give the Pittsburg fans a surprise.

Dr. Weede has produced a winning track team for the past eight years with victories in the Central Conference meets and also numerous relay carnivals. The track team of K. S. T. C. of Pittsburg is known for its record breaking performances in many states. The Gorillas started their 1933 season off with a “hang” in defeating Butler Uni- versity by a score of 95-36. In their second triumpth at Hastings, Nebraska relays they won ten out of a possible thirteen firsts and established five new Hastings records. At the annual Kansas relays held in Lawrence, Pittburg won four firsts and a second and established one new K. U. record. The team ended their last relay carnival by winning two firsts and two seconds at the Drake University relays. Emporia Teachers and Springfield Teachers were both beaten in dual meets by decisive scores. The Central Conference title was won with a total of 68 lA points, Emporia Teachers was second with 44Vt points. Washburn was third with 18t4 points and Wichita placed fourth with 15 points. The Gorillas broke three records and won seven firsts in winning their eighth consecutive Conference meet. Probably the most outstanding event an I performance was the 880-yard run between Brown of Pittsburg and Rhodes of Emporia. “Brownie” led all the way, then Rhodes with a brilliant sprint plunged into the tape to barely beat him out in the marvelous time of 1:56.5. Another outstanding performance was turned in by “Windy” Davis in the 440-yard dash, Davis clipped two seconds off the old record of which he and Terwilliger of Pitts- burg were joint holders in 49.4. Davis ran the distance in 47.4 to establish a new record. Swisher again proved his supremacy in the 100 yard dash when he nosed out Holder and Crooms at the tape. Swisher ran the century in 9.9 to break the old record which he herd in ten seconds Hat, Other firsts were won by Stambaeh in the high jump, Dale Smith in the mTe run, Johnny Bell in the two mile run, and Ralph Russell in the shot put. The last event of the day was the mile relay. The team composed of German, Swish- er, Terwilliger, and Davis established a new record. The quartet covered the d'stance in 3:16.6 to break the old record held also by Pittsburg being .3:18.7. Other Gorillas let- tering in track were Tingley, Towner, Salathiel, Wilhelm, and Kirby. Dr. Weede and his track team climaxed their 1933 season by winning the Marquette University outdoor meet at Milwaukee. June 2. For this honor they received the marvel- ous gold Knute Rockne Trophy. They scored 38 points, Marquette University 28 po'nts, Michigan State 20 points, University of Wisconsin 18 po uts, and Notre Dame 17 points. The following colleges and Universities scored less than 10 points: Michigan State Nor- mal, University of Chicago, University North Dakota, Butler University, Grinell Col- lege, Northwestern University, and Illinois State Normal. The Gorillas winning points in this meet were: Swisher, Davis, Terwilliger, Brown, Smith, O’Reilly, Stambaeh, German, White, and Russell. First places were won by Davis in the 440, Brown in the 880, Stambaeh in the high jump and German, Swisher, Terwilliger and Davis in the one mile relay with a record time of 3 minutes 16.6 seconds. Two valuable men will be lost next year with Davis graduating and O’Reilly trans- fering schools. Some new candidates will make bids for the team but it will be hard to replace these men. “Doc” Weede has always been capable of turning out a winning team and will probably win a good share of the firsts at the meets to which he takes his team.

The cast: Rose Izen, Irwin Luthi, Ed Lavery, James Giddings, Wayne Campbell, Lucy Mae Erickson, Graydon Clift, Margaret Campbell, Milton Zacharias, Julia Martin, Robert Anderson, Ruth Lovett, Vivian Seela, Jack Burnett, Velma Dee Alsup, Ernest Wood, Norland Strawn, Lois Seeley.

The merchants have been most kind this year when everything else seems so bitter. They have subscribed for advertising space in the Kanza when they have had to cut down on other ex- penses to do so and we as the staff of the 1934 Kanza feel that it is no more than right to ask the students to patronize those merchants. Pittsburg as well as the College is especially fortunate in having business men so loyal to the worthy causes which they support. It is upon the foundations of such men that our institution is built and kept going. May the 1934 Powerful Kanza be especially powerful to them. We thank you, merchants of Pittsburg. J.

Pittsburg, Kansas Page 181 KANZA AD ASPIRN PER ASPIRN By Hollis McCoy Old Ad Aspirn Per Aspirin has almost forgotten about “The Power of the Pen,” while dealing with the Seven Year Itch the last four weeks, but before tackling it again for the next six years and elev- en months, I wish to remind all that there is power in the pen, and that it will continue to rule in the world1, yea seven times seventy years. If you don't believe it, hang around and see. Of course the typewriter lias been con- testing with the pen for first laurals in the modern world, but old Ad Aspirn is just finding out how useless modern machinery such as the typewriter and linotype really are since loosing the end of what once was a perfectly good finger in an electric meat cutter. While listing useless modern machin- ery, steam and electric shovels standing idle about the country must not be ne- glected. Now that we know each other better, at least that works one way, which is perhaps your handicap, we can talk a little more intimately This is all leading up in our little the- sis or argument in which we are pointing out the superiority of the pen to this point where we are going to ask: who ever heard of anyone writing a love let- ter with anything but a pen? A type- writer doesn't carry that personal touch which is so essential in a letter of this type. And letters written with a pencil are too easily erased and changed into wonderful evidence for a breech of prom- ise suit. Just imagine Henry VIII writing to any one of his six wives on a typewriter, or better still, try to picture him writing a love letter with the hind-quarter of a cow in one hand and a penny pencil in which the lead is continually breaking grasped tightly in his other greasy paw in order to keep it from slipping. It is quite easy though to see this gentleman wooing with a lovely quill pen. And then to see the lovely creature he wins for his wife tickling the king under the chin with the same lovely quill pen with which he wooed her just before she goes to the block to give up her love- ly head. As for the sword being competition for the pen, forget it... Who hasn't seen the man at the circus swallow a sword. But did you ever see him swallow a quill sucdi as is pictured in this Kanssa? The poor fellow would probably be so tickled he would laugh himself to death. After a trip to Dean Trouts office with a “D” card, it might be a good idea to take one of these quill pens much as you would take an aspirn. This would purely make you laugh, and would be even more effective if taken with a glass of Frontenac water. If you happen to catch us foaming at the mouth, please don't think that we have a dose of this perseription, or that we have gone mad. There is a serum one can take to keep from going mad, and since loosing the tip of our finger, we have taken this treatment. These “shots” are supposed to keep one from going mad, but when he goes to pay for them, guess he just can't help it. Well, let’s go down to the new boat dock at the College Lake, tie a mill stone around your neck, and throw you in. We'll bring the mill stone_____Hur- rah for the power of the pen! Payre 182 The Power of the PEN To those who have been directly associated with the staff in bringing- out the theme “The Pen Is Mightier Than the Sword,” it seems that this title is especially appropriate to the people who shall be the backbone of America, tomorrow, and it is our hope that every reader will enjoy many happy reminiscenses in perusing its pages. The Mid-Continent ENGRAVING COMPANY 120 South St. Francis Wichita, Kansas Brief Statement — of the — AIMS AND OBJECTIVES -Of- Kansas State Teachers College A teachers college is an institution of higher learning with curricu- lum broad enough, and with scholastic standards high enough to merit the title “college.” Not only should it be a college in every sense of the word scholastically, but professionally as well. A teachers college of today should not be a college bound by out- grown educational traditions; but an institution whose educational cross section is a replica of the social life of the community to be served by its graduates. As far as possible a teachers college should be a practice school wherein prospective teachers may observe, receive instruction in, and participate in real life processes; a thing which can never be accom- plished in any college which isolates itself from the social and occupa- tional processes constituting the social life of the people. The correctness of this statement requires no proof to those who have had experience with, or who have made a careful study of modern educational problems. The Kansas State Teachers College was established in 1903, in re- sponse to the demand arising out of changing conditions—a demand that our public schools provide broader curricula—curricula which would prepare for useful occupations that large per cent of pupils in our public schools that go no farther than the high school. We believe that the degree of efficiency of any teacher is to be determined by the extent to which he is able “to share” in that which he teaches. We think there is truth in the following statement from Emerson: “No one is worthy to promote the cause of education who is not thoroughly familiar with the life conditions, and the environment where the education he is pro- moting is to function.” Last but not least: A college which leaves out of its educational program the deepest concern, and the most adequate provision for the conserving and promotion of Christian faith and activity, is a college whose educational program is far from complete.
