DEDICATION To those Who started us on our long trek, who first gave us a glimpse of the Wide horizons beyond and stirred our imaginations to seek greater adventures of the heart and mind; To those Who guided, supported, encouraged and participated in the Rochester Iunior College activities; To those Who gave us a lift through the endless quarters cmd pointed out the right road, the pleasant side roads off the beaten track; To those Who at the end of our destination gave us our passports to CI new and longer road-the futuree we Wish to dedicate this 1949-50 RAIUCO.

His individual conferences With them and his cooperation have made him our out- standing leader. The Board of Education has the re- sponsibility of supervising and solving ' the educational problems of Rochester With the help of Mr. Cory. During his two years here, Mr. Cory. originally from Indiana, has proved him- self a very capable administrator and one Who is very much interested in IC. i61 Mrs. Creal, our friendly registrar, help- ed us make our plans for our journey through R.I.C., While she personally ac- companied the accounting students. Mrs. Bock. our second in command, is Dean of Women and Student Activities besides being the instructor for the home economics courses. Mr. Heintz has devoted all his time to the Rochester Community Evening Col- lege, a valuable asset to our community and known throughout the nation. Miss Dickinson and Mr. Rockenbach: Rocky Joe and Dicky kept us physically fit during our trip through their physical education courses. Miss Matt, Miss Barthelemy. Miss McGhee. Mr. Maxie: Every student had at least c1 three-quarter stop With one of these attendants. Mr. Suddendorf: Sid and his chorus helped us along the road With music. He also offered Music Appreciation to make life more pleasant. Mr. Willard, Mr. Collins. Mr. Singley: To these at- tendants, we owe our knowledge of the physical and chemical worlds we conquered on our way. I81 Many students thumb through the courses of social science instructors, Mr. Bateman, Miss Goette. and Dr. Roy. and find the scheduled ride hard and bumpy but mighty interesting. Mr. Dubbert's office is always crowded With stu- dents Who find the math. instructor is always glad to help them With their problems. Mr. Paul is adviser to the Ophthalmic Optics students and the efficient draw- ing instructor. As shown here, Miss Siem, secretary to the Dean, is always busy. She listens to many tales of woe cmd solves many problems for us. by Pickett is secretary to the registrar. She is the one Who helps us With our schedules and registration. Miss Evans is noted for her deep, hearty chuckle and her genuine enthusi- asm; Miss Hillestad is the capable adviser and Will- ing helper and friend of the Medical Secretaries,- Miss Wenstrom is the genial typing instructor; and Miss Madden is the competent general secree taricd adviser. During our stop-over in their new lob, Miss Endicott and Miss Curry, co-workers in the plant and animal kingdoms, gave us a thorough understanding of the biological world. When we stopped in the library to study, Miss Ingli was our capable helper. Dr. Sheard. until recently head of Biophysics at the Mayo Clinic, was instrumental in starting the 0-0 course for R.I.C.'s optics students. Mr. Krebs who has been in the optical field for over thirty years was one of the small group who initiated the Ho-o course. Every business student become acquainted with Mr. Kortz omd Mr. Rudberg before he transferred from RIC. to the business world. Business low and economics czre their favorites. Near the beginning of our journey we stopped at the counseling office where we were given college entrance tests. Miss Goette, Mrs. Cochran, and Dr. Roy gave us the helpful guid- ance we needed for the examinations. Passing these tests with high scores, near those of geniuses, we immediately proceeded to the library and started our studious college life. Miss Ingli, the librarian, guided us to the right book shelves and maintained order when we became too excited over our new literary discoveries. tlll :1, Not wanting to miss anything, we stopped at the business machines class next. It wasn't long before we could press the buttons and pull the levers with skill and accuracy. Some of us went on to the chemistry laboratory. I guess it was the odors and glassware that attracted us. However we didn't spend much time in either of these classes before we found out we had to Visit the bookstore. In the bookstore we found Mr. Rockenbach, Rocky Ioe, who Hdrove a mighty hard bargain. After we were well supplied with books we proceeded down the I. C. halls, and whom should we meet but Mrs. Bock. She told us about her interior decorating class. Nine girls registered for this course and redecorated a room of Mrs. Book's for their quarter project. The rest of us went on and had a surprise when we came to the newly redecorated biology lab- oratory. While examining the dissected cots which the comparative anatomy students were working on, some of us who had cats at home decided we wouldn't enjoy this work. Several of the girls were interested in secretarial work. Miss Hillestod and Miss Madden told them about the secretarial courses we have at Rochester Junior College and showed them one of the Classes. Mrs. Bock, Robert Christopherson, Phyllis Dolden, George Bingham, Ora Ackerman, B111 Fiebelkorn, Alvin Tupper, Viola Kutcher. After everyone had become acquainted at I. C. we elected the students who we thought would make up a good student council. The faculty advisor for the council was Mrs. Bock. Because we know we had to have some social life along with our studies, we elected a social committee to plan and organize our parties. Working with this committee was a one-man poster committee, Noel Gray, who saw that the parties were well advertised. 1. Char Lehman, Mary Klug, Barbara Schnobrich, Jackie Aird, Bea Lawler. 2. James Sullivan, Harvey Cob- lentz, Harris Hornseth. Noel Gray E141 Between classes, at lunch time, and after school you'll find I. C. students at the Merry-Go- Round engaging in their favorite pastimes e eat- ing, talking, and playing cards. The students Who are responsible for the Merry-Go-Round activities are Jack Fallon, Athena Margellos, Fred White, Barbara Bach, and John Whiting. These students made arrangements for renting the Merry-Go-Round and now meet regularly to plan menus and enter- tainment. t151 THE E C HO . mix ROW 1: George Binghdm, Iim Brough, Kathleen Lonergan, Kory Olson, Athena Margellos, Audrey Rossi, Viola Kutcher, Teresa Moriarty, Earlene Goltz, Phyllis Dolden, Nancy Kendall, Harvey Coblentz. ROW 2: Buzz Birkelo,Noe1 Gray, Delores Kreinbring, Norma Koplin, Pat Iohnson, Mary Klug, Iackie Ramthun, Marilyn Miller. At the beginning of the year everyone Who was interested in working on the I. C. paper, HThe Echo, could volunteer. A large group turned out, and each person was given CI special job, such as proof reading, writing, or interviewing. Every other Sunday some of the members of HThe Echo met for make- up, and the following Wednesday the paper was published. Mr 3:32;; a M Another large group that worked together, each with his own task, was the Raiuco staff. Here the Raiuco editors are shown working dili- gently on the year book and making compromises on some of the finer points that came up. t I171 1. Dot Mogen, Phyllis Dolden, Kay Olson, Mary Curley, Maxine Wedam, Audrey Rossi, Betty Roberts. 2. Peggy Roberts, Char Lehman, Phil Ringgenberg, Chub Stewart, Buzz Birkelo. A new group organized at I. C. was the Pep Club. It was the job of the members to arrange the pep assemblies and see that there was enthusiasm at the games. Then there are the small activities that always have to be done. One of these is being performed by Teresa Moriarity who is mailing the HEcho. t181 We met many new compan- ions Who hiked With us to the freshman convocation and, sus- tained by the friendliness and good food at the Chamber of Commerce luncheon, began the journey through the first quarter. E201 FRESHMAN ORIENTATION Our first stop was made at Rochester Iunior College dur- ing freshman registration week. Here, With the genial assis- tance of Miss Hillestad and Mr. Willard, we received our iden- tification tags and guide books. HDaddy Rockenbach fixes a bite to eat for Francie and Donny as the hungry picnickers warm themselves around the blazing fire. F all Mixer To break the monotony of the long trudge, we stopped to en- joy the tall picnic at Shady Oaks. After wearing ourselves out playing volley ball, we roasted hot dogs around the camp fire and sang until we had to move on again. Homecoming We greeted the queen candidates Edee Larson, Joan Mieras, Kay Olson, Nancy Kendall, Phyllis Dolden, and Betty Roberts . . . . . and hailed gracious Queen Edee and her lovely attendants Phyl and Kay at the as- sembly Where Coach Rockenbach, the football squad, and Mr. Singley crowned her majesty. Although we lost the game to Waldorf, our Homecoming was Ct great success from the Pep test to the last activity of the evening, the annual homecoming dance. Here, in the fined moments of the game, royalty manages bright smiles as the crowd looks glum. Next we joined cheerleaders Pinky Brough, Nancy Kendall, Jackie Ramthun, and Noel Gray at a pep fest around the bonfire at Soldiers Fieldenot anticipating the beating we would take from Northland. Although we lost the game, we had Ci good time at the dance afterwards. HQueen Iohn Whiting and Hher gracious court led the parade to the schoolebut much as we hated to, we had to hit the road again. E231 HERE AND THERE .. Let's stop at the Harvest Dance for a While. Look at Harv Hedstrom and Io Mierczs mugging as Daisy Mae and Li'l Abner. Off we go again, we've a long road ahead of us yet. The IC band was c1 great booster at the Pep As- semblies and games and deserves much credit for bolstering the spirit of the crowd. There were many intellectual CIC- tivities in Which we participated dur- ing the yeareamong them Q radio broadcast presented by Mr. Bate- mcm and students Bob McGarry, Virginia Stellmacher, and Carl Chumbley. As Others See Us While we rested by the road side, we watched Ct performance of The Nine Lives of Emily, presented by the Rajesters. George Ploetz, Viola Woodworth, Kay Olson, Owen Spring, Thomas Moran, Wilma Naves, and Iecmne Le Favor gave us a lively hour of entertainment. We invited our parents to meet one anoth- er and the teachers at the Iunior College Open House in the tall. Entertainment was provided by the choir under the direction of Mr. Suddendorf, and the Rajesters presented a play directed by Miss MCGhee. Aftere wards cm informal reception and tour of the classrooms helped our parents to get ac- quainted. Time Out What would we have done Without the Echo to keep us in touch With all the activities along our journey? Here is a typical scene in these our halls on paper day. The cafeteria was a haven of rest and nourishment for many a student Who felt that a mid-morning snack was just the thing to tide him over till noon. Where else could one eat and study in comfort at the same time. E261 What would we have ever done without our coke machine for a pause to refresh ourselves dur- ing the tedious hours of class work! At almost any time of the day, both teachers and students gathered at coke corner to exchange gossip or just sit and sip cokes, and then, off to class again. The telephone in the faculty office was CI popular spot for students to congregate to chat and make necessary phone calls. This year the Ophthalmic Optics students worked in their new laboratory. Between LC. and the lab, they were constantly coming or going. t271 Throngs of students joined the leaders of the band and, in snake dance fashion, zig-zagged their way to Central Auditorium tor a pep test. The band added a joyous spirit to the peppy crowd as they filed into the auditorium to cheer for the team and watch the antics of Brough, Bir- kelo, Bingham, Phil Ringgenberg, and Harvey Coblentz. t281 F oofball Left to right-eFront Row-Ken Hodge, Nug Ryan, Ronny Gillespie, Neil Mahoney, Phil Ringgenberg, Don Blazing, and Owen Spring.

Back RoweCoach Ioe Rockenbach, Fred Rittenhouse, Iim Ienewein, Emil Carlson, and Coach Cliff Monsrud. The biggest turnout for football in the history of RIC greeted Coach Ioe Rockenbach the first week in September. Returning were fourteen lettermen, and prospects for a good team were ex- tremely bright. After the first game against Bethel, the squad was cut down as a result of numerous injuries. The Yellowjackets won the ball game, however, 13 to 6. The Jackets next met Northland College of Ashland, Wisconsin, and the boys from the north powered over the Yellowjackets 25 to 0. Waldorf was the next foe tor the Blue and Gold as they journeyed to Forest City, Iowa. The Yellowjackets completely outplayed the home team and won by a 20 to 6 score. The next game found the Yellowjackets let down as they edged a fighting Emmetsburg I. C. team by 27 to 20. The Yellowjackets journeyed to Austin for the next contest and were defeated 7 to O on a rain- soaked field. Ronny Gillespie played one of his best games of the season. In the last two games played, the Yellowjackets were defeated first by Worthington by a 19 to 6 score, and then lost to Mason City, I. C. in the Iowa city, 34 to 20, in a wild game.

Number 72 is Don Leonard trailing the play. Wally Kriehn catches a pass from Ronny GilleSpie in the Bethel game. Kriehn played many outstanding games for the Yellowjackets in the '49 season, and his pass catching ability was his most noted talent. Wes Mellgren, the Worthington Speedster, is off for the races as Wimp Smith, number 51, comes up to try to stop the play. Worthington dropped the Yellowjackets 19 to 6 in the final home grid game. Dale Gray. Iim Gove. Ronny An- derson and Ken Hodge, who were regulars for the past two years, are shown looking at football trophies they received at the annual football mixer. This year the mixer was held at the home of Coach Rockenbach where movies of the Yellowjackets in action were shown.

E351 Xmas Assembl y The Yuletide season was introduced by an assembly at Which seasonal music was presented by the I. C. chorus. C hrisfmas F ormal Once upon Ct time the Junior College held c1 Christmas Ball. It was to be at the Palace Valencia on the 15th day of December. The gallant Prince Phillip escorted the Lady Charlotte and they waltzed in CI Christmas fairyland. t361 The magic wand of Henry Burton cast a dreamy spell over the dancing couples. Strains of ttStGrdust, Wishing, and HMer-believe filled the ballroom, and CIS the evening wore on, everyone hated to see it end. But like all fairy tales and gala dances, this one too ended on a happy note with C: goodnight kiss. The International Relations Club, under the supervision of Walter Bateman, meets for the purpose of discussing current international affairs. The officers are president, Harvey Coblentz; vice-presi- dent, Frank Hershik; and secretary-treasurer, Peggy Roberts. One of the main interna- tional problems of the day was presented by Dr. Posin, Chairman of the Department of Physics, North Dakota State College, Who lectured on the effect of the hydrogen bomb. Let's eat! This delicious dinner was cooked by mem- bers of the cooking class, cm innovation this year. Classes were held at the home of Mrs. Bock, superviser of the course. Varsify C I ub The Varsity Club is composed of fellows Who have carried the Junior College through the season in football and basketball. The Club plays an active part in school affairs, not only in sports, but also in social activities. Rocky Ioe entertained Hhis boys at C1 feed at his home where they discussed vari- ous highlights and lovelights of the season. I391 Gamma Rho The journalists of R. I. C. were initiated into Gamma Rho at a candlelight ceremony during the annual banquet of the society. Following the initiation, Miss Marietta Sonnenberg of the Rochester Post-Bulletin staff spoke on the future of women in journalism. The Medecites met at bi- monthly dinners to discuss problems of interest to the fairer sex. This group in- cludes the general secre' taries and the medical secre- tcrries.

W Iulie BlockeThe LeSueur flash, Iulie was another fine ball player on the Yellowjackets. Block was about the most consistent team play- er, on the squad. I441 Wag rated him the most improved player on the squad. TOP OrcI Ackermom drives in for layup against Dr. Martin Luther College, while BELOW, Ronny Gillespie drops one in from the side. The Yellowjackets started out rather slowly and about mid-season started to hit the hoop consistently and won a number of ball games.
