For you, the students who travel the campus daily, the staff has attempted to give an insight into department activities AROUND THE OVAL. For the students of yesterday it will serve as a reminder of the progress this modern institution is mak- ing today. As this pictorial record will demon- strate, K. S. T. C. has advanced into the atomic age, physically through its modern structures and spiritually through its en- deavor to keep abreast of contemporary trends in higher education. If this book serves as a valid guide when the time comes for reminiscing, the editors and staff will have accomplished their goal. LEE THOMISON, editor - Page 7 Kansas . . . . . . State Board of Regents The State Board of Regents previews the plans for the third boys' dormitory. It will be erected adjacent to the two new dorms. Presently ninety mule students are housed in the first dorm, which was completed in the Full of 1954. T he second dorm will also house ninety men and is expected to he occupied in the near future.

REGISTRAR, C. R. BAIRD How many grade points do I have? COMPTROLLER OF FUNDS, M. LITTLE Are the checks in yet? Mr. Little took over the reins from Miss Belle Provorse, who retired. The business office is truly the Beehive of the campus. ff' mir: n ' .J. Bill Devine, Well now-. The little wheels pose. Student Administration Student government, regardless of its structure, evolved out of the popular thought that thc student body ought to have greater participation in the shaping of its education. A 1919 KSTC debating society adopted this philosophy and emerged as an active student legislative and executive body. Our Student Council stands today as a watchdog over student rights, to see that our privileges and obli- gations as campus citizens are preserved and en- larged, and to present and interpret our ideas and opinions to the administration. In the spring of 1953, the student body adopted a constitutional revision approving the latest de- velopment in student government-namely, the modified commission form. Our present Student Council embodies the philosophy of delegated responsibility, being distinctly divided into four commissions, each headed by a duly elected vice- president. The Student Affairs, Student Government, Ed- ucational Affairs, and Human Relations commis- sions do the actual leg-Work For the Student Coun- cil. Before they present any matter to the Student Council for consideration, they examine all the pros Page 12 Cl Tlmrum-n McCamon, Roger Ramsey, lim Sherrnan., Sue Hirsch., Front row: Katherine Cade, Delores Carlile, Pat McClanahan.

The Veeps, elected chairmen of the commissions, act as a liaison between campus groups and the Student Council. The remaining Student Council membership is composed oF equal representations from the Greek organ- izations ancl from the ISA, unaffiliated, and graduate students. These members, numbering 28, serve as appointees to one of several commissions.

Highlighting the final week were two major addresses by K. S. T. C. grad- uates, now leading men in their pro- fessional liield. Dr. Eugene Frank, Methodist min- ister of Topeka, declared in his hacca' laureate service that no circumstance in life is big enough to hold one a prisoner unless one wants to he. The second address came during coni- nieneement exercises when Dr. VValter Ni. VVallaclc, warden ol: Wzillliill prison in New York, warned that crime, next to the hydrogen homh, most threatens lXmeriea's present existence. The degrees were conferred hy Presi- dent Rees H. Hughes and Lester McCoy oi the state board oi regents. Dr. Ernest Mahan, dean ol instruction, presented candidates lor the degrees. -NJ ' f'vZI ' .. ,- ,HI . ' I 3? I I I f,- .

Ralph Flanagan supplied the entertainment to a capacity crowd of approximately one thousand students, alumni, and friends of the College. I-Iun- dreds of musical notes trimmed in glitter and a glowing gold-rope-trimmed stairway created the at- mosphere of Modern Moods in the Student Center. VVi1liam Adrian, Fashion designer and model- ing school head of Pasadena, Calif., selected the queen and her attendants. Miss Barbara Bushnell, a freshman from Fleming, representing Epsilon Pi Tau, honorary industrial arts fraternity, was crowned queen. l-'ler escort for the evening was jim Dunlap. Queen Barbara's attendants were: Sally Allyn of Pittsburg, first attendant, and Miss Helen Curry of Dodge City, second attendant. Miss Allyn, a junior sponsored by the Press Club, was escorted by Robert Edmistong Miss Curry, sen- ior representing the physical education majors and minors, was escorted by Don McWirt. Lee Thomison, 1955 Kanza editor, crowned the queen, presenting her and the attendants with their trophies. jim Sherman, standing in for Bill De- vine, Student Council president, announced the twenty-three queen candidates and their escorts as they made their entrance into the Ballroom. Movies of the event were taken for publicity use, recreating the coronation, Carol Patterson and Carolyn Creighton re- ceived honorable mention from Adrian. Miss Pat- terson, his fourth choice, is a sophomore and rep- resented the YWCA. Miss Creighton, freshman sponsored by the Lang and Lit Club, was his fifth selection. A net profit of S300 went into the yearbook fund as, for the first time in several years, the Kanza Ball did not end in the red. As in a majority of the past years, the Ball was handled by the Kanza Staff. In 1953 and '54 it was jointly spon- sored by the staff and the Student Council, but it remains as an activity of the Board of Publications. Assistant Editor jim Dellinger, who was ap- pointed Kanza Ball chairman by the editor, ac- complished the utmost in decorations with a great deal of time and effort on his part and the part of his committee. Emma Kay Palango and Barbara Baenisch were in charge of the coronation, queens, and trophies. Dodie Smith and Vicki Smith worked on the decoration plans. Also assisting the com- mittee was Sally Steward, staff artist, who drew up many advertisement posters and aided with the decorations.

I Library Staff Porter Library Wlieri Kansas State Teachers College CPittsburgD was founded in 1903, as State Nlanual Training Normal, a library was installed in the officc of the principal. This was necessary because Miss Odella Nation, the librarian, was also secretary to the principal. The library soon outgrew these quarters, and after being housed in three separate locations, was moved into its own building in 1927. Porter library, opened in May of that year, was named for former State Senator Ebenezer F. Porter, who was instrumental in the estab- lishment of the college. The building is air-conditioned and contains four large reading rooms, an exhibit area, U.S. Post Offce branch, college mailing offices, seminar rooms, faculty lounge, microfilm read- ing room, stacks, circulation area, and museum. It has 34,000 square feet of floor space, a seating capacity of 800, and book capacity of 150,- 000 volumes. Three departmental librarians serve the two laboratory schools of 600 students maintained in connection with the college and the department of library Science, which trains school librarians for the surrounding area. The library is staffed by forty full and part time staff members. The bool: collection contains 105,000 volumes. 1, l 1, ,. ..zfi.. :.'..-.., , V- ll f 1 ,D ,, lf A 1 lx, xl H7 ll X 1 ' f' :X 1 ,H lxl wr f '7f-' ,llfl'l .fll V ffm, A! lf 1. .ffffffff -r-l . fi, f- J 1 l . i ' .

Two laboratory schools are maintained as the primary source of instructing and training students of education. Horace Mann elementary school is operated by this department For students training in kindergarten and the first six years of education. Those preparing For the secondary level receive training in the new College high school building. The latest addition to the laboratory schools is experimental work in the use of closed-circuit television for instructional purposes. Through this method, expected to be in full operation this sum- mer, largc classes of students can observe class room work in a normal situation from nearby rooms. Since 1947, a professional semester has been added to the curriculum whereby a student in S-r I .A 'i 1 'gy' ll 3' X f I T f ' 1 V4 ma- I A QE r 5 secondary education takes all of his professional courses in one semester during his senior year, with the exception of educational psychology. This qual- ifies the student for a teaching certificate in his fields of concentration. Three major organizations are sponsored for students, including the Education Club, Future Teachers of America and the local chapter of Psi Chi, a national honorary fraternity for top scho- lastic students of psychology.

Integrated with color, competition and music, the festivities entertained several thousand stu- dents and alumni during its 2-day duration. Highlights of homcoming included the cor- onation of Miss Dixiana Sprague of Miami, Okla., as queen: organized house decorations contest, a 3-hour parade and variety show, and a triumph gridiron win over Kansas State Teach- ers College at Emporia. Miss Sprague was chosen from among 33 candidates competing for the title, She was sponsored by Wfestminster Fellowship. Miss Barbara Lightfoot, sponsored by Sigma Tau Gamma, was selected first attendant and Mrs. Charliss Kiser, sponsored by the Dames Club, was second attendant. Sparkling the line of march in the homecom- ing parade were 67 marching units, colorful floats and queen candidate cars, and gaily uni- formed majorettes. Sigma Tau Gamma placed first in the cam- pus float contest for the second straight year. Phi Lambda Chi was second and Alpha Sigma Alpha, third. In the queen car race, Theta Sigma Upsilon was first, Alpha Phi Omega, second, and Kappa Pi, third. Glittering displays with such prominent themes as Beat Emporia and VVeleome Old Grads were entered in the house decorations contest. Theta Sigma Upsilon topped the contest with Tau Kappa Epsilon, second, Phi Sigma Epsilon, third, and Alpha Sigma Alpha, fourth. Among fourteen acts entered in the variety show, which served as a kickoff for the home- coming events, Kappa Alpha Psi was first. The Language and 'Literature Club was second and Theta Alpha Psi ranked third. Sparked by Quarterback Pray McDaniel, the Gorillas took a 20-7 decision from the Em- poria Hornets in the afternoon homecoming classic before a capacity packed stadium on Brandenburg Field. Quarterback McDaniel passed three touchdown aerials, twice to End Bill Mosley and once to End lim Schwindt, for tallies that gave the Gorillas their first home win over the l-lornets in twelve years. Actually the major homecoming activities were the center of attraction for the entire 4- state area. Crowds estimated in the thousands were present at each event despite the crisp weather. An estimated 25,000 persons viewed the brilliant display of color and tunes in the homecoming parade many of which remained for the afternoon game. 4 aa .fn 0 L+, DAL v-1 ' .pr R 0 .,l s GRADUATE STUDENTS Claude Dayde Robert L.

Opening in 1913 as a manual training department with only unit shops, the department today has expanded to include general shops in all fields of industrial, fine and applied arts. The most noteworthy development in recent years was the estab- lishment of a division of audio-visual education and photography. Although in existence only five years, the audio-visual division is a service to the entire institution. This division plans to have a closed circuit television service in operation this summer for instructional purposes, following a full year of experimental work. Witli the growing demand for a more versatile industrial teacher than was demanded under the old manual-training regime, this de- partment is doing a top job in producing graduates qualified to teach the variety of arts of industry included in the curricula of modern schools. A large department staff, headed by Dr. O. A. Hankammer, is maintained to provide the many courses offered in art, automobile mechanics, crafts, drafting, elementary industrial arts, metal work, printing and woodwork in addition to the audio-visual and photography division, professional and graduate courses. The department is housed in both the Industrial and Mechanical arts buildings. Several hundred visitors are brought to the campus annually to participate in two major projects of the department. Industrial Arts in Action gives high school students an insight into the entire depart- ment whilc several hundred persons attend the nationally known four- state conference for active leaders in industrial art and vocational ed- ucation. The local conference was one of the first of its type, although today the idea has spread through the nation. Alpha Alpha chapter of Epsilon Phi Tau, an international hon- orary scholastic fraternity, draws members from top students in the department. The Industrial Arts Club is open to all majors.

Epsilon Pi Tau Nlaintaining high professional scholarship in its membership and giving rec- ognition to those who have performed outstanding services in the field ol industrial arts are the purposes of Epsilon Pi Tau. Alpha Alpha chapter of this international industrial arts honorary scholastic fra- ternity was installed on the campus of KSTC in 1947. The aims of this group are skill, social efficiency, and research. Nleetings are held monthly with programs of a professional nature. The fraternity plays an active part in the four-state conference on industrial education and works hard on the open house held by the entire department for the high school seniors on Senior day. Each year the chapter provides a scholarship award of 55100. Page 99 KSTC is proud of its Art department, a division within Industrial Arts. The art fields at the college are many and varied, from appreciation to applica- tion. Ever-changing displays are always out for the students to view in the hall gallery on the second floor of the IA Building. General purposes of this division of the college are: to provide for general cultural knowledge through experiences with, and active participation in the arts as they function in our daily livesg to give the classroom teacher such basic training as will enable her to take advantage of the daily opportunities to promote art growth in the activities of the child and the communityg to train teachers and supervisors of artg to offer basic training for those who wish to specialize in the fields of art, industrial design, or commercal art.

Kappa Pi, national honorary art fraternity, came to the Pitt State campus in 1938 with the chartering of Tau chapter. This organization was formerly the College Art Club, one of the most active departmental lionoraries, a position which it still holds. Kappa Pi sponsors many exhibits of local work as well as that of noted authorities in the fields of art. The group also enters into all campus activities possible. lVlembership in the organization is open to students in the junior and senior classes who have outstanding scholarship and a proven ability in the field of art. Art 'work brings beau-ty to Kappa Pi Queen Car Kappa Pi Building and Crounds Building and Grounds Super- visor Carlyon views lake-front remorleling plans. No department has contributed more in the ad- vancement of K.S.T.C. into the atomic age than has the Building and Grounds Department. It was in this respect that the College made its greatest material advance. Headed by Lernoine Carlyon, the department supervised a record year in construction and remodel- ing. Little seen interior of K. S. T. C. Greenlfzouse. Page 102 The most significant changes were in the com- pletion of two new residence halls for men and a 560,000 president's home on the College lake front. ln addition to these new structures, virtually every building on the campus underwent remodeling, which ranged from a new coat of interior paint to a complete new addition. Additions were made to Science I-lall, the Building and Grounds plant and College High School, Science Hall received a new stage addition to care for stage properties and personnel of large performing groups. A large 2-story addition to the Building and Grounds headquarters houses offices of inventory, control and supply, increased maintenance shops and the official United States Weatlier Station. College I'-ligh's new addition will be used for industrial arts. Major interior changes were made in Science l-lall, where the Medical Center was expanded to include nine rooms, and in Music Hall, where a chapel was added. Many landscaping projects also were completed in the immediate area of the new structures, including the College lake front. Business establishments north of College High were removed and the area was landscaped to extend the main front of the College another half block. In addition to supervising building and remodel- ing, this department is responsible for beautifyng the campus. A greenhouse is maintained for raising plants and shrubbery, which are transplanted to var- ious parts of the campus. This is only one of the many services this department performs in the line of duty. Although it was a record year for building, it is only a starting point for the future. The program, begun four years ago, calls for more expansion, includ- ing additional residence halls for men and wing ad- ditions to Russ Hall and East I-lall. A 40-acre tract of land east of the College has been purchased to provide space for this future expansion. Sophomore Officers President of the Sophomores is ISA's busy little man, Larry Coker.

JJ, Home Economics Department In keeping with modern life, the Home Economics Depart- ment is doing an outstanding job. This department is respon- sible for one of the major physical changes AROUND TI-IE DVAL. Actually, the attractive Home Economics building has housed the department since August, 1953, although all the rooms were not fully equipped until this spring when a laundry and quantity cookery laboratory were added. It is one of three schools in Kansas which prepares voca- tional homc economics teachers. Pittsburg State prides itself in having the most neoteric homemaking department in the state. The social skills program is the largest project the depart- ment has inaugurated in the past few years. ln this program, the art of being a good hostess is taught to all freshmen residing in Willarcl Hall. Under the supervision of the department head, Miss E. Louise Gibson, the department serves many dinners prepared in the modern foods laboratory. The foods laboratory has five complete unit kitchens. Fashionable color schemes add to the beauty of the interior of the recently remodeld building, which houses a livingflining area, a clothing room, a related arts room, a child care room, and the laboratories. The department sponsors the Home Economics Club. gg Siv '--ff ii CY J' ' HI ,f -- 1 ST- f E. Louise Gibson, H. Davis, Halen, H. Buck, C. Zim1ner1r1arn, M. Buckey, j. Noel.

I A l Mechanical Arts Department ln addition to the regular college students on campus, some 170 persons participated in the non-college vocational education program. This program was established on the K.S.C.C. campus following World War l. Alter reaching its enrollment peak of several hundred students, it was discontinued during the de- pression only to appear again following VVorld War Il. The program was reorganized in March, 1954, as a separate department, at which time L. VD. 'Boone took over as director in addition to his duties as coordinator of veterans training. Prior to the reorganization the program was an element of both the industrial and physical science departments. Students of the department are prepared for employment in industry in skilled trades with advance standing. Both day and night courses are offered in machine shop, welding, air conditioning, refrigeration, auto mechanics, diesel engineering, radio and television repair and electricity, including motor-re- winding and house wiring.

Hays. The erect and clistinguishecl Dr. Wells is un- doubtedly a major liactor in the department's rep- utation of being the most outstanding producer of pre-medicine students in Kansas, having been an instructor in the department since 1911. Dr. Vlfells became head of the department in 1939 when Dr. O. P. Dellinger, the original di- rector, became dean of the College and chairman ol' the graduate school. f': KCLQJ 2 iv .a0?:: ' 1..:f1 ET LQ' 1 5 4 1. ffl 1 i ' 4.4- Us- i fi 'ig i ,--JKJRNAL V' .. rr ,-., 1,45 X i W7 if h..ic??l 'll 514541 fl. f' j 422'-aig.

Biology Club The Biology Club has come a long way since it was known as the ten-cent lunch club of 1912. As related by Dr. Ralph Wells, present Biology department head, who was serving as an assistant professor at the time, the club was organ- ized as the Agriculture Club. The nickname was used, however, since members purchased a dime lunch for each meeting. Page 138 The present name came with the changing of time. It also has been called, the Carroll Medic Club and Lambda Sigma Kappa. Professional persons in fields of interest to the science students are guest speakers at many of the bi-monthly meetings. Social events also are held to enrich member-relationship, including the an- nual Christmas party and a spring picnic. -v-unnih Physical Science Department The Department of Physical Science was strengthened in many ways during the past year, including new equipment, three additional faculty members and an increase enrollment of 39 percent. Among the new additions has been radio-chem- istry equipment, which opened possibilities for both teaching and research in the field of nuclear chem- istry and atomic physics. A new physical chemical laboratory was installed and an instrumental anal- ysis laboratory is presently under contruction. Another modernization program in the depart- ment is the replacement of old tables and other equipment in all laboratories with new modern facilities. The organic laboratory has already been remodeled with the latest type of equipment. The program will be carried out in other laboratories as funds are available. Headed by Dr. L. C. Heckert, the department is housed in both Science hall and the Mechanical Arts building. Divisions of the department include physics, chemistry, engineering, geology and gen- eral science. A scholarship, administered by the Southeast Kansas Section of the American Chemical Society, is given annually to the outstanding junior student majoring in chemistry. This has provided inspira- tion for excellence on the part of students of chem- 1stry. Front row: E. Broome, Dr. R. Anderson, W. H. Mathews, M. Parker, L. C. Heckert. Back row: M Coventry, Dr. E. W.

Physical Science Club Modern life is scientific . . . and the modern student at KSTC is very interested in the scientific approach to the problems of the atomic age. One group of Pitt Staters with a major interest in the sciences is the Physical Science Club. Membership is open to all students in the physical sciences. Meetings are held monthly and at every meeting discussions are held on pertinent current topics. Turning from the serious scientific meetings the club holds fall and spring picnics with the Mathematics and Engineering clubs, both events proving highlights of the year. Members of the Physical Science club and the Biology club join together to undertake the task of decorating Science CCarneyD Hall for Homecoming, and the group takes an active part in the development and presentation of the annual Science Fair held at KSTC in March.

T his was the first large-scale remodeling pro- gram carried out since 1940, when the medical center was expanded from its original 2-room head- quarters to include five rooms. Even this previous record year was no match for the improvements made this past term. Not only was the center expanded physically but it also extended its services with added equip- ment to care For this increase. Modernity is the supreme feature of the present 9-room medical center. Setting off this new ap- pearance is a birchwood panel reception room fully equipped with ranch-style furniture. Gained from the expansion were a laboratory, storeroom and two patient wards. Among the new equipment added were two new hospital beds, a new treatment table and various apparatus for test- ing and treatment. Operating the center are Dr. G. W. Pogson, M.D., and Miss Margaret Rupard, registered nurse. Dr. Ralph Wells supervises its operation as chairman of the health committee. I-le has held this post since 1936.

On campus, the local chapter of Sigma Tau Gamma grew out of a local fraernity, Sigma Phi Kappa, created in November, 1923. Sigma Phi Kappa became officially affiliated with the national organiztion in May, 1924, as Epsilon Chapter. Professor O. F. Crubbs, who is now serving in the state legislature, was the first sponsor of the fraternity and has continued in an honorary ca- pacity as sponsor since its founding. Major The- odore ll. Caplca and John F. Lance are the present sponsors. Mrs. C. F. Lucand is the Housemother of the Sig Tau 1-louse at 101 W. Carlton. Among the highlights of the fraternal year was the winning of first place on the homecoming float, this being the second year in a row. Miss Barbara Lightfoot, chosen as first attendant of the Home- coming Queen, was Sigma Tau Camma's repre- sentative. Miss Heather Murphy was chosen as the Prose Queen of the Sigma Tau Gamma VVhite Bose Formal.

The fraternity has chapters all through the South. The group was organized at Con- way, Arkansas, in 1920. The year's activities included: full par- ticipation in Homecoming with a second place on the float, the annual Thanksgiv- ing Banquet and Wiiiter Formal held at the Hotel Besse, and the Spring Formal held at the Student Center Ballroom on May 14. An annual harmony banquet with Theta Sigma Upsilon, the Phi Lambda Chi's sister sorority, their house clean-up project, and numerous informal get-togeth- ers were among the highlights of the year. Zeta Chapter, always striving for high- er fraternal ideals, continued their Help Day this year. Pledges and actives alike participated in working for the 'Pittsburg Public School System, an important pro- ject being the cleaning of the swimming pool, the gym, and the track.

I Bill Loc er Lewis Millemon, Jr. Bob Porkhurst Jim Perkins Phi Sigma Epsilon has grown in the past 27 years from a shaky organization with three chap- ters into a solid national organization of 24 chap- ters. Its beginning in 1910 was at Emporia State College. With the addition of Beta chapter at Pittsburg State College and Gamma chapter at Missouri State College, Kirksville, in 1926-1927, the three combined into a national organization. Beta chapter has always encouraged higher scholarship of its members and has cooperated with the faculty and administration by entering whole- heartedly into all school activities. On February 20, 1953 Phi Sigma Epsilon of- ficially became a member of the National Inter- Jerry Quintard Keith Rogers Warren Rogers Kenney Siler fraternity Conference, composed only of the larg- est recognized fraternities. Chapter activities this year have included a Homecoming alumni banquet, the Christmas dance in December, the Phi Sig Follies in March and the annual spring formal, the Bell Ball, in May. House parties, fraternity dinners, and social gather- ings have always been a part of the Phi Sigma Epsilon social calendar. Prof. Joe Murphy and Dr. Frank German are sponsors. Miss E. Louise Gibson has been patroness of Beta chapter since 1947. Mrs. l-1. F. Souders is housemother for the chapter. Page 163 fr it Y' fr .-vp- .- -.,.-Q. ..,. . . ' g . S r I Page 164 fl? ' ef?

Apple Da Commemorating the founding of K. S.T. C., the 49th annual Apple Day celebration was a major high- light of the spring activities held on the campus. A morning convocation served as a kickoff for the traditional event followed hy an afternoon of dancing and a Major Attraction play that night. A feature of the convocation was the presentation of awards to faculty members and students who have given outstanding contributions to the growth and development of the College. Four faculty members were given certificates and pins in recognition of twenty-five years of service. Receiving the awards, presented by President Rees H. llughes, were U. Massey, former registrar and now head of the duplicating departmentg George Pruggles of the biology departmentg Mrs. Eclwina Fowler, music supervisor at Horace Mann Laboratory School, and Dr. Ernest M. Anderson, of the education and psy- chology department. Carolyn M. llamsey of Uniontown, Kansas, and Paul Don Marquardt of Pittsburg were honored with special citations for being the two outstanding seniors on the campus. They were crowned Mr. and Miss K. S. T. C. of the class of 1955 and reigned during the celebration. The outstanding seniors were among twenty- seven students named to the Who's Who In American Colleges and Universities. Representing the class of 1930, Ora McClelland, senior member of a VViehita law firm, was the guest alumnus speaker for the event. In his introduction, hflr. McClelland, former national president of Sigma Tau Gamma, praised the College administration for the expansion that has taken place during the past quarter- century. As the traditional portion of the program, a skit was presented hy students and faculty members, de- picting the colorful legend of Apple Day. Thus it is apparent the appropriate theme, Lest We Forget, has been carried through the years. Apple Day will always serve as a reminder of the founding of K. S. T. C. at Pittsburg. Dads' Night cl'm'ing the Gorillas' football season was a gigantic success. uLx -I ur a 1 -1111111731-:lr1mu Independent Students' Association l l Jo Ann Allol I Joan Beal Larry Coker Goy Cunningham Rciyma Fryar Barbara Jockmon Betty King J.

Page 175 kr. I K 35:11, Si, :-i Robinson goes for a first down Pittsburg, Oct. 2-The Corillas took advantage of the breaks to down the highly regarded Central Missouri State Mules. Although both teams played on even terms throughout the first period, when Coach Smith sent in his reserve squad the Corillas pushed across three touchdowns in the first eight minutes of the second quarter. The rnost sensational play of the game and the one which broke the Mule's back came when Brooks went back to pass from his own 17 yard line. Jim Schwindt broke through and chased him into his own end zone. ln des- peration Brooks threw the ball wildly into the air, attempting to ground the pass. State guard Marvin Ackerson saw his chance, made the catch on the ten and sped by two amazed defenders to score.

The Corillas scored touchdowns the First three times they got their hands on the ball, with quarterback Pray McDaniel sparking all three tallies. A major factor in the win was the hard- charging State line which held Rolla to 37 yards gained on the ground.
