Pep Club composed of 48 members went all out in cheering the Gorillas on to Victory this year. The highlights of the club's activities were the pep assemblies which reduced the audience to a hilarious state of humor. These assemblies included skits of various kinds, beauty contests speeches by players and coaches, and pep band selections under the directiod of Oscar Stover. In the Homecoming Festivities, the Pep Club was well represented, choosing as their representation a bright red and yellow float. The pre- homecoming pep rally was a grand affair-plenty of pep and spirit and a firm determination to burn out our opponent in actual play as was done in effigy. For the huge bonfire each faculty member was charged a wooden box. These boxes piled high in the middle of the campus added to the excitement of Homecoming. Each Pep Club member proudly displayed his or her membership pin which held in bold black words K.S.T.C. Gorillasf' Following the several pep rallies the club sponsored Victory dances. The success of the club is largely due to its sponsors, Miss Ruth Aaro, Oscar Stover, and Clay DeFord. igma Tau llelta Martha Anderson Francis Baxter Laverne Carroll Madeline Knock Patricia Mari lt Colleen Michie Phyllis Pettyjohn Laura Belle Rush Lorraine Siegle Helen Wage' SIGMA TAU DELTA Sigma Tau Delta, national honorary English fraternity, promotes the mastery of written expression, encourages Worth-While reading, and fosters a spirit of fellowship among men and Women majoring in English.

Starting as an agricultural club in 1912, this group shifted its em- phasis to pre-medic interest and became Lambda Sigma Kappa, an hon- orary professional fraternity. This year, after the addition of many veterans, another shift of emphasis was noted, and the members voted to change the name to the Biology Club, so as to include all phases of the science equally. The bi- monthly meetings usually feature talks on all phases of biology by persons engaged in these fields. Highlights of the year included the annual Christ- mas party, and the visit by Dr. Anton J. Carlson, noted physiologist of the University of Chicago, to the campus. - Alpha Gamma 'Pau Back Row: Glenn Hardy, Paul Castagno, Lindley Cox, Jack Crews, Howard Hartzfeld, Burton Sanders, Jack Lambert.

Weede, former Pennsylvania U. All-American football end and present ath- letic director, came to Pittsburg in 1919. During the years Doc has been with the College, he has turned out some superb teams to highlight the sports front at K.S.T.C. Dr. Weede Will retire from his present posi- tion as Director of Athletics and head of the Physical Education department on July 1. John Lance, basketball coach, joined the Pittsburg coaching staff in 1922, coming here from Southwestern State Teachers Col- lege at Weatherford, Oklahoma. There he Was director of athletics and head of the three major sports of that school. In the years '30, '31, and '32, he coached the Gorilla teams to a national inter-collegiate record of 48 consecutive victories. Charles Morgan took over the reins as head football coach in 1938. After compiling a highly successful record during his eight years of coaching at Pittsburg High, he was named assistant coach in the College in 1931. Charley has a good percentage of Wins to his credit. Assistant Coach Prentice E. Gudgen be- gan his career at College High here. After completing his master's degree Work at Iowa U., he came to Pitt as assistant coach in 1938. Recently Coach Gudgen was named to succeed Dr. VVeede as Director of Athletics and head of the Physical Education depart- ment. Doc Weede Head of Department E g R denour Albert Cerne Chester Heidman Glenn Tolle Dudley St gg man Dale Morrow Waldon McCoy Donald Stegge This year marked the return from the armed services of letter men who had won acclaim on the gridiron at K.S.T.C. during the years '41, '42, and '43. With these men forming the nucleus, Coach Charley Morgan set forth to build what was hoped to be the championship team of the C. I. C. for '47. The Gorillas displayed a powerful defense, but offensively the final drive was missing. Winning one conference game, losing two, and tying two, the Gorillas tied Hays for fourth place in the Central Inter-collegiate Conference race. The Gorillas started the season with an impressive 12-0 win over the Warrensburg, Missouri, Mules. Playing at home ona muddy field, the Gorillas scored first in the second quarter with Leroy Schuette carrying the ball over from the four yard line. In the V kb AR if . S ..f second half, a pass from Bob Lorenzen to Gene Ridenour accounted for the second touchdown. Springfield then played host to the Pitt team and was defeated 14-0. Two long runs of seventy and sixty yards by Don German featured this game, the last setting up a Pitt touchdown with German taking the ball over. Conner converted for the extra point. The second tally was scored on a pass from Hogue to Conner in the last quarter. The try for the extra point was blocked but Ger- man ran it over. Homecoming Day at Hays was the setting for the first Gorilla C. I. C. tilt which ended in a scoreless tie. This was the third game of the season in which the opponents were unable to break through the tight Gorilla defense. Pitt outplayed the Tigers throughout L. w M. 52 39 a WWE 58 6 R' 1'--. Mall Dutch Nogel John Hottenstein Billie Sears Frank Page l Allman John Hogue Robert Lorenzen Joseph Gray Jack Wallace the game but lacked the final drive to score. The ball was in Hays territory all afternoon with the Gorillas making fourteen first downs to one for Hays. Washburn U. vs. Pittsburg was a crucial game for both teams. Although neither team had been defeated, the Gorillas had one tie to their record. Washburn got off to an early start and had scored two touchdowns in the first quarter before the Gorillas found their footing. Fraser scored first for the visitors from the Pitt five yard line. A few minutes later, a pass from Harmon to Melvin account- ed for the second touchdown. Both attempted place kicks failed and the first half score was 12-0. Coming back in the second half, the Gorillas scored in the third quarter on a pass from Lorenzen to Ridenour. Foster kicked the extra point. Threatening con- stantly during the remainder of the game, the Gorillas again failed to find that final drive as the game ended at 12-7 with Wash- burn taking the lead in the C. I. C. race. Southwestern College fell to a 7-6 de- feat at the hands of the Gorillas. Inasmuch as the Moundbuilders won the Conference title, this was a high point in the Gorilla schedule. Pitt was the only team in the conference to win from Southwestern. Again it was the first quarter scoring that proved too much for the Gorillas as they played St. Benedicts College to a 7-7 deadlock at Atchinson. Fryne scored from the Pitt twenty late in the first quarter with Carroll kicking the extra point and the game was tied. In the final period a Gorilla drive of seventy-six yards put the ball on the Raven one yard line but failed to score. This game put Pitt out of the race in league play. With nearly three inches of water cover- ing the field at Rolla, Missouri, the Gorillas displayed themselves in the mud bath of the season. After the second play of the game, the players were unrecognizable from the mud and running was an impossibility. The game was one of kicks, with a total of twenty- seven during the afternoon. Final score: Rolla School of Mines 0, Pittsburg 0. With desperate last minute attempts to score by Rockhurst College of Kansas City, the Gorillas finally took advantage of the breaks of the game to mark up their highest score of the season. In the first quarter Schuette passed to Ridenour in the end zone for the first touchdown with Foster kicking the extra point. Both teams then settled down to play scoreless football until the third quarter when a pass from Lorenzen to Dutch Nogel gave Pitt their second counter. Then with four minutes to play, the Gorillas scored twice more featuring Bud Bowman's pass interception on his own thirty-five and going sixty-five yards to score. The Emporia Hornets came to town for the Pittsburg Homecoming with an unim- pressive record in league play. The Hornets had gone down three times before their league opponents. Wasting no time to demoralize the Gorillas, the Hornets went on to win over a Pitt team that completely fell apart. The final score was Emporia 21, Pittsburg 0. That completed the football season, and though the won-lost record was not impres- sive, the Gorillas held five of their eight opponents scoreless. Don Stegge and Don German received post-season honors in all-star selections. Gene Ridenour and Dick Salb were chosen to rep- resent Pitt in the Missouri-Kansas senior all-star game played in Kansas City.

Winning four games while losing six, the Gorillas gained a tie for fourth place with St. Benedicts in the Central Conference basketball race. Highlighting the season was a 53-52 triumph over the University of Ar- kansas early in January. The team displayed one of the finest brands of basketball ever seen on the college court and hopes of its chances in conference play rose to a new high. But it was a hot team one night and a cold one the next that plagued the Gorillas dur- ing the entire season which ended with Pitt Winning eleven and losing twelve. The Gorillas opened the season with a 47-27 victory over the Independence Junior College at Independence. On the local court the Gorillas defeated Drury College 44-33, and Northeast Oklahoma State was defeated 62-31. With three victories, Pitt played host to Northwest Oklahoma State and after a hard battle went down before the boys from Alva 43-42. Inability of the Gorillas to make free throws put the first blemish on their record. Pitt ended the last of four home games by defeating Southwest Oklahoma Tech 62-37. Springfield was the next stop as the Goril- las played Drury for the second time. Gaining vengeance for the defeat earlier in the sea- son, Drury won the game 39-37. The next night on the home court, Pitt bowed to the Springfield Teachers 40-28 with Springfield coming from behind in the second half to win. That ended basketball for the year 1946. The Gorillas came into the new year with a record of four wins and three losses. Starting the year '47 with a bang, Pitt defeated Northeast Oklahoma State 51-25 at Tahlequah. Then came the game of the season with the Arkansas Razorbacks coming to the local court. It was an inspired Gorilla team that met the boys from Arkansas and never in the game was there more than nine points difference in the scores. With three minutes to go and the Razorbacks leading by one point, Wilbur Humphries made the basket that put Pitt in the lead. Arkansas failed in an attempt to score with the Gorillas get- ting' the rebound and again it was Humphries who scored the basket which proved to be the margin of victory. Arkansas then man- aged to score one field goal but fell short to lose by a 53-52 final. The next four games were played away from home with the Gorillas defeating Rock- hurst 52-39 at Kansas City and then losing 40-31 to Springfield for the second time. On a two-game road trip, the Gorillas traveled to Atchinson for their first confer- ence game. In a close, thrilling game the Ravens bowed to Pitt in an overtime playoff 44-42. The next night at Topeka the Gorillas again played the same type game, but a late rally fell short with Washburn winning 43- 4 . The traveling team from the University of Mexico next came to Pittsburg and in a spirited game the Pitt Quintet defeated the Visitors 66-50. The Mexico U. team played an exceptionally good game and with the linguistic difficulties presented, this proved to be one of the most interesting contests of the season for the fans. Washburn U. at Pitt was next on the schedule and revenge was secured for the Topeka defeat with Pitt the victor by a 46-45 score. Again on the road for two days the Gorillas found trouble as they lost to Emporia Teach- ers 38-28. The second defeat of this trip awaited at Ft. Hays as the Hays Teachers won 66-54. With two victories and three defeats in the Conference, Pitt defeated St. Benedicts and Southwestern in succession and again put themselves in a position to fight for the conference lead. St. Benedicts was defeated at Pittsburg 56-40. A week later Pitt trav- eled to Winfield to take the game from Southwestern 47-44. The remaining four games of the season were played on the local court with Rockhurst first on the schedule. The Gorillas were again off-stride as the Kansas City boys won the game, 55-51. Southwestern was next and for the fourth time in conference play the game ended with not more than two points difference in the score. The Mound- builders won 38-37. The undefeated Emporia Teachers came to Pitt with an 8-0 record. Another close game saw a last-minute drive by the Gorillas fall short by one basket with the Hornets winning the game 50-48. The season ended with Ft. Hays State de- feating the Gorillas 63-58. Dale Conner, Bill Waltz and Guy Mitchell received post-season honors in all-star select- ions. W 'S POIi'l' FUN OR FOULS Play for Fun is the slogan of the Women's Recreation Association. It is a far cry from the days when much of the competition was on the basis of foul the other person before she fouls you. Competition is largely on an invitational or play day basis rather than a previously ar- ranged schedule of games. Emphasis is placed on increased friendliness, tolerance through broadened social contacts, and skillful playing. This year W. R. A. provided many opportunities for meeting girls from other schools. In October the members assisted with the Annual High School Play Day which attracted more than three hundred high school girls from the tri-state area. Later on the hockey team went to Kansas State College, Manhattan, for a game which it won by a score of 6-0. In November the Joplin Junior College visited the Campus for a volley ball gameg the return was played in Joplin in February. K.S.T.C. lost both of these games to the Joplin players. On February 15 the Association was host to Kansas City Junior Col- lege and Joplin Junior College for a Basketball Play Day. This included a discussion of basketball rules, two single round-robin series of games, a luncheon during which the Association K was awarded to Helen An- derson and Helen Coltrane, movies of the technique of important basket- ball skills, and an afternoon snack as a finale. K.S.T.C. won the A series of games, and tied with Kansas City for the B series. Customarily the Archery Club in the spring takes part in the state and national telegraphic meets.
