Call on the printed guides for directions and get set—here’s the GO signal!

HORACE MANN PORTER LIBRARY RUSS HALL in if ii “Congratulations to the KANZA Staff members and to the faculty and students of Kansas State Teachers College. Our institutions of higher learning today are the frontiers of a new era of living, an era embracing world education for a world citizenship. I am convinced that our Kansas schools and colleges are equal to the challenge which now confronts them in the great task ahead, —Andrew F. Schoeppel, Governor, State of Kansas The State Board of Regents is composed of men and women out- standing in the field of education and leaders in many activities in the business and professional world in the State of Kansas. It is through this board’s efforts that many of the educational oppor- tunities of today are offered. Their chief interest is to build a better and higher type of education. Standing—Hubert Brighton, Willis N. Kelly, Drew McLaughlin, Grover Poole, L. B. Spake, Oscar S. Stauffer. Seated—Fred M. Harris; Elizabeth Stephens Haughey; Lester McCoy, chairman; Jerry E. Driscoll; Betty Reed, assistant to Mr. Brighton. We KSTC'ers boast of the friendliness on our campus. We believe it to be tops —and this contagious feeling we share in working and playing together i$ promoted by our favored president, Rees H. Hughes. President Hughes is not only outstanding in personal associations and student popularity, but he has proven him- self in sincerity and effectiveness. No wonder our Prexy is tops, not only os our administrative head, but in the heorts of each of us. amt 971m. fissul H. dinqksA. wmmwn mtmum DEAN OF ADMINISTRATION [Mill ' n u m . u DEAN OF 11M WOMEN If you hove any troubles, questions, unsolved problems—or would just like to take time out for a chat, then Dean Murphy’s office is where you stop. We rate Dean Jennie C. Walker easily as a capable confident, consultant, and an all-around wonderful individual. Dean Murphy finds time to do many jobs well. Not only does he see to the duties of Dean of Administration of the College but he is sponsor of the Student Council, chairman of numerous faculty and student committees and finds time to offer that ever-willing hand of help to all. Dean Walker is widely read, has traveled extensively, and possesses an ir- resistible attitude which easily erases any so-called fright of deans. Her high standards easily make her a true and ideal Dean of Women. Poge 16 1 [p y II J to M 11 ACTING DEAN OF MEN DEAN OF INSTRUCTION Straight up the marble stairs of Russ hall and second door to the right on the east—that’s where you'll take intermission to talk a bit with Charley —our acting Dean of Men. Dean Morgan, also Coach Morgan of the Health and Physical Educa- tion Department, is one of those cheerful individuals whose smile and easy-going air makes him perfect for the job of explain- ing the rules, either on a football field or in the college Frosh book. Dean Mahan, new in his position this year as Dean of Instruction, is also head of the Social Science Department of the College. Dean Mahan has that easy pa- tience so needed in a position of this type and is a typical example of the friendly administrator, for he is always willing to take a few moments from his busy sched- ule to advise and instruct. REGISTRAR Stroll into Mr. Massey’s office and you’ll probably emerge with a smile, a few new jokes to tell your friends, your grade average and maybe even a rose (one of Mr. Massey’s horticultural accom- plishments) . Mr. Massey has a ready wit that makes anyone think of an excuse to detour through the door marked Registrar. He's defi- nitely a student favorite. SECRETARY TO THE PRESIDENT Ask Mrs. Stryker seems to be one of the official phrases used around Russ Hall—and appropri- ately so. One can always depend upon a helpful answer and a friendly smile from our president's efficient secretary. Not only do we think of capability os one of Mrs. Stryker’s assets, but we olso list friendliness and sincerity for she rates high in each. FINANCIAL SECRETARY Miss Belle Provorse keeps all of the school’s records and finances running on a smooth scale. Not only does she accurately perform her administrative duties, but she can offer help on individual prob- lems and questions os well. We meet her around enrollment time and take advantage of this fine acquaintanceship throughout the year. LIBRARY SCIENCE ODELLA NATION, Acting Head of Deportment Mary E. Sherfy, Esther A.

The Student Council sponsored or supported every school event and entertainment during the year besides participating in school drives, educational programs, assemblies, etc. A year which was a right step forward for many To Jock. . . .

Sometimes one crumpled snapshot can create enough mental pictures to complete a photo album, can cause you to dream away and smile, can cause a grin, a snicker. . .or a tear. Accord- ingly, a few words aptly chosen can create those same pictures—pictures we could never capture with a camera or paste in a book—for they’re crazy little details that made that one event so very special. However, these little reminiscences are part of the 1945-46 year too; so we have selected some word prompters to help you fill your own mental snapshot album. Do you recall. . .

Who’s Who Among Students in American Colleges and Universities is a nation-wide recognition service for students throughout America. All nominees are upperclassmen and are elected to the honor on the basis of character, scholarship, leadership, personality and ability to be- come leaders in the business world of the future. This year for the first time, certificates of award were presented to those elected. ESPECIALLY FOR YOU Especially for You —It’s a pretty tune but applying the words to music alone limits their meaning; here we want to transform the lyric into a phrase which sticks literally! You see, you were the main person considered in the construction of this book. Over stub pencils, typewriter ribbon, drying prints and Hypo solu- tion, we discussed your likes and dislikes, your study and fun, your prejudices and ideals and tried to summarize those highpoints in copy and photos, model them around standards set by you —and call it KANZA, '46. Sometimes things weren’t easy and we moaned in unison to answers of no paper — Maroon leather? It’s unavailable — a phone in the KANZA office is impossible — No more flash bulbs — etc., but still twas fun and believe us, you helped, for you proved an inspiration. We chose the GO signal and travel as our theme because this year really meant Shifting into first and starting back to normalcy, back to large enrollments, back to traveling teams and talent—back to peace! As a summary, our dedication goes to you— for KANZA ’46 was published for your enjoyment. Cram it full of autographs, thumb its pages thin; it was created Especially for You. As editor, I’d like to slip in this very special thank-you to all the staff members — they’ve been great and fully cooperative. To Mr. Leroy Brewington and Laurence G. Cutler—well, it would be hard to put into words how much I appreciate their patience, guidance, and wonderful sugges- tions. They have been The best in every way. P. S. The coffee and candy bors were nice, too.

SMITH Advisor It is Wednesday, so each student rushes for his copy of The Collegio to learn the campus news. The Collegio not only serves as a means to keep students and faculty members informed of campus happenings and items of interest, but it also publicizes the College. Its circulation is 3,500 copies, several hundred of which are sent to former students. During the first semester Betty Lance was editor, and the second semester Beulah Marquardt assumed the responsibility. Both girls are seniors. Assistant editors were Lorraine Seigle and Geraldine Kirkwood. Helen Reeder, Hazel Monsour, Virginia George, Geraldine Kirkwood, Mrs. Virgil G. Smith, Lorraine Siegle, Hazel Groggs, Janie Anderson, Johnny McCreary, Estelle Crouch, Bill Morey, Judith Potts. BETTY LANCE LORENA MAE RILEY BEULAH MARQUARDT First Semester Editor Business Manager Second Semester Editor The staff is composed of students enrolled in journalism classes and others who are particularly interested in newspaper work. Especially worthy of mention was the ever-increasing number of men who joined the staff through the year to add new flavor to the paper. In keeping with its policy of student appeal, the staff produced several special editions of The Collegio featuring some special timely phase of campus activity—Apple Day, Farewell to the V-12 unit, a welcome to the vets, etc. Collegio reporters covered the Midwest Rural Life conference not only for the school paper, but for the Pittsburg and Kansas City papers. Mrs. Virgil Gordon Smith is the supervisor of journalism; Professor LeRoy Brewington, supervisor of printing and chairman of the student board of publications. Page 53 BAND REHEARSAL iL r. s MU p(B WALTER McCRAY, Conductor over all MUSIC HALL BUILDING Clear across the compus on o frosty evening or on o warm spring morn- ing can be heard the strains of some composer from the Music Halt. In- comparable, inspirational, for music is a vital part of our campus life. (x)iL it U}Ml “TthidJc!’ Lift the baton in salute of Dr. Walter McCray, director of the KSTC school of music. Dr. McCray has held this position for thirty-two years and has maintained a standard of the highest type in the field of music and music education. In addition to the regular functions of the music department, each year recitals are given by the Polymnia dub, the orchestra, band and the Festival chorus. Yearly, also, the college cooperates to the fullest extent in seeing produced on our KSTC stage, real grand opera, the only opera seen in this district of the middlewest. Music Festival Week brings music lovers from all over the area and Handel’s Messiah is always one of the highlights of the event. More than one encore could be called for our friendly Music Depart- ment head. His outstanding record truly warrants applause. ORCHESTRA REHEARSAL aL Jl. S- 3- C- ofr CDjuAM- Again KSTC steps forward to present Grand Opera in the Middle-west and they do it well ' so was our colleged complimented upon the presentation of the opera Cavalleria Rusticana by Mascagni. The Opera, as in all previous years, was under the direction of Dr. Walter McCray, head of the Music Department, and consisted of a chorus of 75 and an orchestra of 50 members besides the regular stars. Leolo Turner, Chicago concert soprano, sang the role of Santuzza and other leading roles were sung by Claude R. Newcomb, of KSTC Music Department, Lavon Graham Holden, Pittsburg; Otis Mumaw of Northwestern University and Miss Marjory Jackson, KSTC Music Department. Edwina Fowler was in charge of stage; Gabriel la Campbell, chorus; Oscar Stover, Brass and Woodwinds coach; Rose Buchmann, Organist-Accompanist; Ruth Stamm, prompter; Eugenia Johnson, librarian; Mary Ann Hatley, director of ballet ond David Moore, Stage director.

With the coming of peace, out went the Navy V-12 unit and in moved approximately seventy girls to reclaim the dormitory. Willard Hal! was redecorated and reconverted to feme' tastes in less than three months and the girls were quick to adopt Jon Whitcomb’s ad line of Bock Home for Keeps,” for it fit perfectly. Willard Hall not only has sponsored the customary Open House” and displayed the usual friendly spirit, but this year stepped up to walk off with the first prize in the WSSF stunt night besides numerous other honors received by its individual residents. The dormitory housemother, Mrs. Hazel Cocke rill, made gay curtains for every room this year. She makes a habit of doing little thoughtful acts and has proved a favorite with oil of the girls because of her friendly ways and admirable qualities. pdL ApcccL ahsiatL inJbo At right: HERBERT BROWN Standing: MARY NELL CLARK, President DOROTHY JO BERNHARDT, Treasurer BETTY ZUREK, Membership Chairman Seated: MARY DEL ESCH, Secretary JACK SIMION, Co-Chairman, Publicity DORIS HALFHILL, Co-Chairman, Publicity The Pep Club had eighty enthusiastic, full-of-fun members this year. The most important function they performed was making Homecoming activities a big success on the campus. The members decoroted the football field and worked hard getting the goals trimmed. The Pep Club organized a parade having oil organized houses enter a float. This was a very colorful event and everyone on the campus, including the faculty, co-operoted to the fullest extent. After the Homecoming football game, the Pep Club sponsored a Victory Dance. It was a wonderful Homecoming. A few of the obstacles facing the Pep Club this year were that sweaters were not available and it was hard to find a meeting time. However, in spite of this, the Pep Club did add noise at the football and basketball games ond added spirit to the campus. The Pep Club did appreciate very much the cooperation of its sponsors. Next year great plans are in store for the peppy people of the campus. Plans are being made now to have an organized program with the Pep Club and Pep Band. See you next year!

Sure, there were a few tears shed and, of course, the mail increased in and out of our college station, but reconversion came and changes were made. However, this recon- version only covered the visual signs of the Navy‘s presence. The spirit they maintained, their sense of duty and their lust for fun, along with many memories created by sons from all over the United States remain—they have a permanence that cannot be erased. The Navy said goodbye October 24, 1945 in a College Navy Day Observance program which was held for the group. Lt. Philip E.

KAPPA DELTA KAPPA Kappa Delta Kappa in 1926 was but an embryo thought in the minds of six underclassmen. They banded themselves together to oppose the tyranny of the upperclassmen, which consisted of stopping the freshmen and paddling them. As the semester drew to a close, this group segregated themselves and made plans for the organization of a fraternity In April, 1927, a state charter was granted and these six men formed a fraternity. The purpose of Kappa Delta Kappa is to encourage and promote good scholarship, clean athletics, and right living in general. An extensive program is carried on during the year. This includes one party a month, two formals a year, and the annual Founder’s Day banquet.

Epsilon chapter was organized at Kansas State Teachers College as a local fra- ternity in 192S. The Chapter sponsors social events throughout the year for its mem- bers and strives to promote the interests of the student body by entering into athletics, student administration, and extra-curricular activities of the college.

This attractive bru- nette is active in many extra-cur- ricular activities on the campus being a member of the Pep Club, YWCA and Campus committees and organizations.

BETTY LANCE FIRST MAID OF HONOR Sigma Tau Gamma’s Candidate The preference goes to blondes in this case and pretty Betty Lance received the m-m-m’s and Ah- h-h’s in true style as she gained her honor of being first maid of honor to the queen. Betty is vivacious, talented, out- standing in scholarship, leadership, and personality. 2 L, ihuhf Jthsu ahSL LORRAINE SIEGLE SECOND MAID OF HONOR Theta Sigma Upsilon s Candidate Second maid of honor, and right- ly deserving of the title is attractive Lorraine Siegle.

The Pep Club, in cooperation with the Student Council and the Administration made big plans and settled back fully satisfied on November 4th knowing that this year’s homecoming festivities were rated among the biggest and the most successful that the school as ever seen. Schedule for the day consisted of: First, a parade with entrance of gala floats, comic cars, decorated bicycles and as leader of the parade, our own dignified Prexy on a horse. After the parade, the big homecoming game was played. Even the defeat received by our Gorillas by the Wichita Shockers on this occasion didn't seem to dull the high-spirit maintained throughout the day. During the half of the football game, Lee Hinton, a campus favorite because of her friendliness as well as her beauty, was crowned homecoming queen. Lee then reigned over the remain- der of the day’s activities. Charlotte Miller was crowned first maid of honor ond Helen Howard, second maid of honor. Immediately following the game was a dance honoring the alumni in the College Gymnasium and open house at all the houses on the campus honored the grad- uates. President Rees H.

Not only in major sports but in all sports; for they hit the gridiron, pounded the hardwood, and paced the cinders. Coaches Charley Morgan, John Lance and 'Doc Weede have guided the Gorillas throughout their victorious season. Our hats are off to you Doc, Charley, and John!

Morgan was unfortunate in building his squad this season since he had no lettermen returning, and most of the team consisted of freshmen with no college experience. Though the team lacked the size and weight of the teams of the past, it was very powerful, and KSTC backed her team during the season. Don Smith Gene Patrick Bob Pitts Jack Rockefeller Bob Bowman Paul Hutsey When Charley called the first practice twenty-nine men reported; they were anxious to get their equipment so they could get started. The Gorilla eleven opened the season with Springfield Teachers on October 5. The Gorillas and the Bears fought to a scoreless tie on a slip- pery, and soggy field. The Bears pushed the Gorillas back toward their goal line once in the fourth quarter, but this setback was the only time the Gorillas were in the hole. The outstanding feature of this game was the line cracking by fullback Bob Pitts. On October 13, the Gorillas won their first game of the season by defeating the Rockhurst Hawks 18 to 12. It was a rough, hard fought game with several Gorilla players receiving injuries. The Gorilla’s aerial attack was the factor that spelled victory. With a record of a tie and a win, the Gorillas journeyed to Warrens- burg in high spirit and ran over the helpless Mules. The score was 19 to 7. The aerial attacks again set up most of the scoring opportunities. Page 126 The next game was the highlight of the year. This was the Home- coming Game. The Gorillas met the Wichita Shockers on November 3 on Brandenburg Field for the first time since 1940. The Shockers downed KSTC in '40 with a score of 12 to 6, and repeated their victory by downing the Gorillas 40 to 19 in this year’s game. On November 12 the Gorillas and the Springfield Bears played to their second deadlock of the season. A pass from Lorenzen to Smith was not quite enough for the extra point; thus the score was a 1 2 to 12 tie. In the final game of the season with the Hutchinson Salt Hawks, Morgan’s men were out-manned, out-played, and overpowered in a 39 to 0 ball game. Congratulations go to Coach Charley Morgan for such a fine showing this season. From the looks of prospects for next year’s gridiron bullies at KSTC, there is no mistake in the prediction of a championship team for the season of 1946.

Coach John Lance had the most inexperienced group of cagers he has ever had in his many years of coaching; nevertheless, the season proved to be a victorious one for the Gorillas for they finished in second place in the con- ference. The Gorilla cagers had a 14-game schedule drawn up this season with a home-and-home series of all the Central Conference teams as well as games with other colleges in the district. However, there was no champion crowned this season in conference play. The season opened December 12 with the Gorillas beating Camp Crowder, Mo., 36 to 34 on the home court. Unruh, a flashy forward from Lehigh, Kansas, was high for the Gorillas with six field goals. On December 18, the Gorillas dropped a game to Springfield. The Bears walloped the Gorillas 53 to 39. On January 3, the Lancemen started the New Year right by taking Southwestern 42 to 34. Ft. Hoys Scuffle Emporia Gome FT. HAYS Jock Broodhurst Eddie Ryon Lelond Unruh Tom Kipp Bill Waltz Clinton Webber EMPORIA The K5TC Gorillas displayed a very rugged brand of basketball on the home court when the Rockhurst Hawks de- feated them 31 to 21. For the next six games the Gorillos played on foreign courts. On Jonuary 14 they trounced the St. Benedict's Ravens 63 to 28. Leaving Atchison on January 15, the college cagers traveled over to Topeka to meet the Washburn Ichabods. The Lancemen didn’t fare so well in this contest, taking the short end of the 42-36 fray. Engaging the Springfield Bears on the night of Jonuary 22 at Springfield, the Gorillas dropped a close ball gome, 44-36. It was the Bears’ second victory of the season over Pittsburg. Hitting the road for one-night stands in Emporia and Hays, Lance’s hoopsters gathered two victories. The Gorillas met their arch-rivals, the Emporia Hornets, on the night of January 25, and weathered the hard-fought game in a fine style, chalking up a 47-42 victory. Going to Hays for the second one-night stand, they defeated the Tigers 52-32. On January 31, the Lancemen went to Kansas City to seek revenge with the Rockhurst Howks. Here they came out on the short end of a 52-41 count. Swishing scores through the net from all angles, the sho rpshooting Gorilla cagers tramped the St. Benedict’s Ravens 86-35 Ex-Marine Kenny Coulter, Pittsburg guard, hit from all over the court to cop scoring honors with 22 points. On February 1 I, the Camp Crowder soldier-cagers defeated the Gorillas 43 to 37. Star of the night wos Price, a negro guard from Comp Crowder who played with the Harlem Globe-Trotters before entering the service. Led by Bill Waltz and Kenny Coulter, Lance's Pittsburg Gorillas upset the Washburn Ichabods 43 to 41 on the col- lege court February 16. This victory put Pittsburg in a tie with Woshburn for first place. On February 19, the Gorillos traveled to Southwestern. The Moundbullders handed the Gorillas a 44-36 defeat, !t was rough but close, although the Moundbuilders seemed to overpower the Gorilla five. The lost two games of the season were both home victories. The Gorillas trounced the Fort Hoys Tigers 53-33 on February 23. On February 26 the Gorillas made their lost stand when they handed a defeat to the Emporia Hornets, thus ended a great season with a great team—WHO SAID, NO TEAM THIS YEAR? —WELL, HERE IT IS!!!!
