During our student days here we have made many lasting friendships and experienced many unforgettable hours of work and play. With these in mind we, the graduating class of 1937, have published this Cardinal as a record of the happy associations in classes, fra- ternities, activities, and with the faculty. May its pages be a constantly increasing source of happy recollections in the years to come. The graduating class of 1937 dedicates this book, the twenty-third volume of the Cardinal, to Dr. Charles Ward, our Principal and Friend. We hope that it may serve to symbolize a measure of our love and respect for the man who has so willingly guided, encouraged, and helped us through our student days at Pitts- burgh State Normal School. a L i o n p Ip r e c To those three advisers who helped us pro- duce this issue of the Cardinal u e express our appreciation. On any occasion when we needed help or a cheering word, we knew that we had three good friends who would never fail us. They have been the same kind of friends to the entire class. We give a loving tribute to our advisers, Mr. H. Otis Noyes, financial adviser; Mr. Paul Hartman, literary adviser; and Mr. Charles Brown, art adviser. a t i o MR. HARTMAN MR. URDUS The perfect essence of our art Is due entirely, not in part, To the dextrous hands and mind of C. A. B. A very literary friend Whose achievements we commend Is the helpful, never-tiring P. H. H. Like a book without a reader IV, zcould die without our leader, That faithful man of knowledge, II. O. N. So it is pleasant to relate That if at all this book is great You can praise these mighty masters of its fate. pre We, the graduating class of 1937, express our sincere appreciation to Miss Kate Hull for her devoted service to us. During our stay here she has at all times shown a loving interest in all of our activities and has had an unfailing word of encouragement and inspiration for all those coming in contact with her. May the memory of Miss Hull, a helpful critic teacher and a true friend, live on in our hearts forever. i a t 1 o n IN MKMORIAM In memory of DR. A. V. I IENSI I.WV (1857-1936) Whose life was a consummate blending of fine character, keen insight, individual judgment and practical intelligence. It can be truly said of this man — -he was a gentleman and scholar — in a world of so few gentlemen and so few scholars.

RIPLEY i iousr op i)i-:u£.o.vri;s President — Donald I. von l ie e-Presidenl — Martin Nolan Secretary — Geraldi.ne Jabaut The system of student government which has been in operation for two years was primarily organized to give prospective teachers an understanding of and a par- ticipation in democratic living. All the student organizations arc grouped under the department in which field their activities chiefly lay. such as English, music, education, science, art, and physical education. One or more representatives is then elected to a House of Delegates from each department in proportion to the number and size of the organized groups in that department. In addition, four seniors and two juniors arc elected by their respective classes. One freshman is elected by the class at mid-year. The faculty also appoints two juniors and two freshmen to the delegate bf dy. The House of Delegates is a policy-forming body, serving as a clearing house for all problems which may require the formulation of rules or regulations for solution. Action taken by the House of Delegates is referred to the Student Congress. [26] DAW. SIIKMKT. DR. PETERSON. C.ARDNKR. BAKKK. DR. REIX ' AY, LONERC.AN. TOPE SANS! HAGR1N IAH.M T. LYON. SOI V I RPE TI K HI SI 1 STl ' DKNT CONC.RESS The Student Congress is composed of ten members and two alternates elected from the House of Delegates by the members of the House. The members of the Congress, as in the House, are elected for three years, and may be re-elected. The Congress is divided into three committees of three members to a com- mittee, with the Congress president as chairman of each committee. These are: the Assembly Program Committee, whose duty is to provide for all school assem- blies during the year; the Social Committee, which plans and supervises all formal dances run under school management; and the Student Council Committee, whose duty is one of judge and jun in all disciplinary cases in the school. Some of the results of work done by the Congress for its second year are: The establishment of an extra-curricular credit system limiting student activities to school marks. The allocation of student money for 1937-38. The supervising of a storage room for all school materials used at dances and parties. The writing of the handbook for 1938 freshmen. The planning of the social calendar for 1938. The establishment of an honorary fraternity. The recommendation to classes concerning dues. Organizing its forces in May of 1937 for the next year, the Student Congress closed its second year of existence with a feeling of having truly accomplished something. 127] Tl ILl TkAININO SCI IOOL THE main objective of our Training School is to familiarize the prospective teachers with the best and most progressive methods in the education of young children. It is designed to give every student an opportunity to gain a broader under- standim; of the child by observing him in a natural setting, and by teaching him under the guidance of experienced teacheis. These observations and teaching experiences form the basis of the education of the Normal students, for it is from them that they gain their practical knowledge of how to teach. The Training School attempts to be a model for students to copy. It stresses the motivation factors by introducing units such as those carried out this year on electricity, boats, and nature study. It stimulates the child ' s activity by encourag- ing expression in forms of art, music, and dramatics. It encourages social develop- ment by assembly programs such as those given at Thanksgiving and Christmas. It develops individual differences by a rich and varied curriculum and by the use of a discriminately chosen and well-stacked Juvenile Library. It gives the Normal student an opportunity to observe good techniques and methods used in the preparation, organization, and presentation of subject matter. In addition they may learn classroom management, program making, remedial teaching and similar problems growing out of actual teaching situations. The experiences in the Training School are pleasant and memorable ones, with- out which the Normal School training would have little or no meaning.

We have been pondered over, analyzed, dissected and discussed until we are certain thai succeeding classmen should have a flaw- less curriculum with which to work as a result of this experimentation. As a group of green freshmen we entered the building a little amazed and perhaps a little hesitant and timid over the seemingly infinite number of unfamiliar faces in the corridors. We were gradually taken under the wings of the uppcr- classmcn and at the beach picnic sponsored by them our confidence was fully restored. Not long had we been launched upon our new courses of study when we assem- bled to elect class officers. Howard Ingalls was chosen president; Virginia Dustin, vice-president; Carlton Bell, secretary; and Marion Walton, treasurer. For faculty adviser we unanimously elected Doctor Rorcm. who was a newcomer in 1934 and who guided our class until the close of our junior year. In the fall of 1935 it became our duty to welcome the freshmen and make them firl ' at home. We still looked with a little awe and admiration upon our worthy upperclassmcn, but much of our feeling of inferiority was lost in assuming our protective and sympathetic attitude toward our new proteges. In the absence of the former president and treasurer of our class, Virginia Dustin was given the responsibilities of president. Ralph Steltzcr succeeded her as vice-president. Cieraldinc Jabaut was elected treasurer, and our secretary remained the same. Before the close of our junior year we were given grammar school tests and proved our mettle by coming out on top. No sooner had we struggled through this first experimentation than we were informed that as seniors we must pass comprehensive examinations before graduation. These examinations were to cover all the material which we undoubtedly had absorbed in our English and education courses. The class of l ' )37 showed exceptional taste in its selection of faculty adviser. Mr. Otis Noyes was elected unanimously. The years have indeed gone fast in Normal School and it is with a sincere wish that future classes may rival and perhaps excel our own record, that we leave the halls of Normal to conquer wider fields.

Bol Rl«) DKI.TA T. l ' CI II June, 1937, marks the end of the ninth consecutive year of Delta Tau Chi as an active fraternity in Plattsburgh Slate Normal School. Due to unusual situations the fraternity took in only eight men this year. It is with great confidence, however, that wc, the seniors, leave the fraternity in the hands of these eight new men and the present ten juniors. The old axiom, quality and not quantity, well illustrates the spirit and sincerity of purpose found in Delta Tau Chi this year. The fact that for the past three years every man representing the school at the Eastern States Convention has been either a fraternity member or pledge helps to prove the point that the fraternity elects to its ranks the outstanding men of the school. Of importance also is the fact that in the Student Congress and House of Delegates almost every man again is a fraternity member. Social activities for Delta Tau Chi this year have been just as numerous and pleasant as ever. Pot-luck suppers, parties, smokers, dances and the initiatory banquet have all done their share in making Delta Tau Chi truly a fraternity. Right now every member is looking around for that extra bit of cash for the annual spring banquet. That ' s one night none of the fellows forget. And why should they!

We began our activities with an informal dance to which all normal school students were invited. In close succession we enjoyed the fun of having many parties which gave us a chance to close our books and spend a few congenial hours among friends. A food sale, an assembly program to celebrate Washington ' s birthday and to exhibit our talent, an open house party to entertain our friends, and a rummage sale were among the other events of the year. Pop-eye ' s marriage to Olive Oil announced the opening of the rush season. The next few weeks were spent in becoming better acquainted with the freshmen. This was brought to a climax by a formal pledge banquet and dance at the Cum- berland Hotel. Now that the year is drawing to a close, we will soon be leaving Ago, some of us forever, others for just the summer months. To all of us. however, will come in our reminiscent moments memories of the joys and sorrows shared in Alpha Kappa Phi. [64] Sorority Advisor — Miss Elizabeth M.

The first meeting was a combined business and social meeting at which we made our plans for the year. In October one of our members entertained the Clios at a Halloween supper. A tea was sponsored by the sorority, which closed our social activity for the month. A supper was given by the Alpha Delta and Clionian sororities for the fresh- men. This gave the sorority members an opportunity to get better acquainted with the new students. The rushing season opened with a Ship Parly and ended with a dinner-dance at Hotel Witherill. where we welcomed fourteen new members into the sorority. A one-act play, Hen-Pecked Holler Gossip, was presented for the Clio assembly program. All members Book part in helping to make the program a successful one. The alumnae banquet and the annual senior banquet will bring this memorable year in the history of the Clionian sorority to a close. [66] Faculty Members Mrs. Ollie H. Amsden Miss M.

How- thrilling it would be if we had the power to run the movie again, in slow motion, and live over all that has happened since September. 1036! We could carefully notice the original cast, nineteen sun-browned juniors and seniors, as they met to rehearse the script for the year. We could pause to become better acquainted with the director. Miss Berg, and with the other sorores in facilitate. We could study the extras ' — the freshman girls who might some day play leading roles in the ever-changing drama of lavender and white. Little do these extras realize what an important part first impressions play in their careers. Many impressions were formed in two scenes of the drama. The first of these was the party at which the resources of Alpha Delta and Clio were joined to wel- come the freshman newcomers. The second was the evening scene of the Rush Party. In the latter cut. the extras showed their ability to register a mystery movie and a hot chocolate. Our attention turns from the extras to the original cast, and we listen to them singing carols of many lands in a Christmas assembly program. W ' c watch these more experienced actresses as they move through the solemnly beautiful scenes of formal initiation and pledge. The climax is reached as twenty new stars are given contracts by the Alpha Delta Company. The last reel is nearly finished, but we feel sure that the show will go on next year, and be a better show than ever. As the curtain closes, and wc leave this auditorium for the larger stages of life, we carry with us the ideals of the Alpha Delta script. Cki.ia A. Cray. |68] Fatuity Adviutr — Irenk P.

BAGSTKR I OLl.ISS PRILSS CLUB The Press Club was organized in the fall of 1935 by Mr. Denzil Bagster-Collins. The purpose of the organization was to produce an all-student publication which would mirror the thoughts, ideas and abilities of the members of the club and any other students who wished to contribute. The publication was entitled The Tower and was produced in booklet form. Much material worthy of publication was submitted by the students. The first issue of The Tower was enthusiastically received, proving the fact that for a long time there had been a great need among the students for such literary material. This year the Press Club has carried on a more extensive program. Officers for the club were elected and numerous social and business meetings were held. In two years the club has proven itself worthy of recognition as a standard extra- curricular organization in P. S. N. S. [70] M.DRIDGE. O ' DONNELL. TVRCOTT. HFLL. Dl ' FFY. I.AYHEK. I.YON. WOOD.

Although activity seemed to move slowly at first, it has been accelerated as the curtain approaches. The first active work of the members was to help with the Christmas Candle Light Service. The Christmas Story was enacted by the club in cooperation with the music department under the capable direction of Mr. Hartman, Mr. Street and Mr. Bagster-Collins. Several plays then went into rehearsal with varying degrees of success. In December the new members presented Circumstances Alter Cases as an assembly program. Several speakers coached the cast on theatre work; Mr. Robert Booth spoke on Acting, from the viewpoint of an amateur, and Mr. John Myers gave his reflec- tions on Direction of Amateur Theatricals. Mr. Hartman gave a demonstration of stage make-up, using three characters from Seventh Heaven. Chico, Dianne and Nana. Now the production nears the climax, the public performance of three one-act plays. The Clod. Speaking Terms, and Lot ' s Wife. The members of the club feel sure that the successful year through which they have so recently passed has been directly dependent upon Mr. Hartman, the club ' s able advisor. His generosity, in giving so much time that he could so little afford, is greatly appreciated by the club. We hope that when the curtain rings down on this year ' s work it will close the most successful year in Lamron ' s history. 171 ] KING, GAGNON, MAO. BLAIR. K SK V W(H)I). BELLINGER.

It was first formed to help teachers in the field of rural education. The aim of the club is to promote the educational and social developments of rural life. Club members in this school cooperate with the field in promoting this aim. The club holds two scheduled meetings each month, one a business meeting and the other a social meeting. During these meetings plans are made which result I 72 I CANNING. LONERCAN. BLOW. HKLL. CAREY. COHEN. MACKE. U.I ' ERT. SEIXAVICK WEIR. HUFF. HONSINoER. OREOORY CROMIE. RELATION. SLAC K. BLANC HARD.

I ' B in more and greater activities which prove both instructive and enjoyable to the members. Aside from this, the club sponsored trips to the Dannemora State Hospital, the Republican Printing Office, and the Press office. These trips gave the members much worthwhile information. The social parties each month provide for a prominent speaker, games, danc- ing and refreshments, which aid in developing the students socially. This year Mr. C. B. Murray, superintendent of schools, was our speaker. His subject was, What I Believe a Teacher Should Be. The Rural Club sponsored the first tea dance for the entire student body as in other years. This year the members of this organization have cooperated in bringing to a close another successful year in the club ' s history and are looking forward to new members and an even more successful coming year.

This year has been unusually progressive for the club, with a large increase in membership and excellent speakers present at the various meetings. Two of our guest speakers were Miss Margaret Sibley and Miss Mildred Bernard, both of the training school faculty. Other features of the club during the year were the Hobby F.xhibit given in April, an outstanding assembly program, the addition of several recent books to the library, and cooperating with the library staff in the installation of the Browsing Corner in the library. I ' nder the supervision of the club ' s faculty advisor. Miss Louise Hoxie. the Parnassian Club has enjoyed a delightful year and looks forward to the future years with much pleasure. I 7 1 CANNING.

SQUAD While playing the most difficult schedule ever arranged for a Plattsburg State Normal School team, the 1937 varsity clearly demonstrated by its fighting quali- ties, fine standards of sportsmanship, and basically sound play that basketball on a high collegiate level constitutes an important center of interest for Normalites. That the team acquitted itself favorably is indicated by the fact that against such stern opponents as Green Mountain Junior College. McGill University Inter- mediates, Oneonta Normal. New Paltz Normal, St. Michael ' s College. Norwich I ' niversity and New College of Columbia I Diversity, ten games were decided by margins which in no case exceeded five points.

Increasingly this organization has served as a unifying and organizing center for the activities of the men of the school. Its interests are many-sided. Athletically, the club sponsored basketball, tennis and baseball during the past year. An interclass basketball tournament was conducted and the juniors were returned the champions. A team was selected from the varsity and junior varsity squads to represent the club in the Northern New York Basketball Tournament. Although playing older and more experienced teams, the fine competitive team play of the clubmen won for them second place in the tournament. By their clean play and splendid sportsmanship the team established itself as the most popular organization in the competition. Leaning toward the academic side, the club presented an assembly program which was partly musical and partly intellectual in its appeal. At this time the only debate of the year was offered. So ably was the question. Resolved, that the membership of the Supreme Court of the tnited States should not be changed. debated, that not only the entire membership of the student body participated in the balloting to determine the winners, but many residents of Plattsburg also voiced their reaction to the radio broadcast.

NO YES ART CLUB Tin: Art Club began its winter activities by initiating the idea of evening skating parties. The first skating party was held at the M. A. I. rink; the others at the city rink. After each of these occasions the club came to the Normal School for warm refreshment and dancing. Many of the members were fortunate enough to be able to avail themselves of the opportunity to visit Montreal, where they intelligently observed various types of architecture. An art exhibition of the reproductions of 150 famous masterpieces was spon- sored by the club. Members, the student body, and the public were given the opportunity to observe the creative ability of the great masters. The Art Club assembly program gave the student body a greater opportunity to appreciate the famous masterpieces of the world. Quite in keeping with its reputation, the club presented a colorful tea dance for the students and faculty members. Next year ' s plans entail an arrangement whereby the time allotted to the Art Club may be increased, thus giving greater opportunity for greater plans. I 80 | NATIONAL MUSIC WKF.K The observance of National Music Week, held under the auspices of the music supervisors of Clinton and Essex Counties and sponsored by the department of music of the Normal School, was the greatest success of any music week held in this city. Beginning Friday. April 30. and continuing throughout May 4. a series of six varied and interesting programs were presented. Nine drum and bugle corps, bands and orchestras with approximately 400 players presented the Friday pro- grams. The Plattsburg Boys ' Band, Holy Name Boys ' Band from Ausable Forks and the 26th Infantry Band, the orchestras from Morrisonville, Cadyville, Schroon Lake, and the Normal School appeared on Friday, also the fifth grade Harmonica Band of the P. S. N. S. training school. All massed bands played under the direction of Warrant Officer Czerna C. Lafler. The orchestras played two lovely orchestral compositions under the alert baton of Professor Street. Saturday morning Dr. J, arrcn Erb of New York I niversity was guest speaker and also served as the guest conductor in the afternoon when over 700 high school singers sang under the magnetic direction of his baton. Better choral singing has never been heard in this section of the country. Monday night an all-PIattsburg school and parochial school massed orchestra and chorus concert was presented. Tuesday morning was the final concert and was presented by the combined choirs of the Baptist, Presbyterian and Methodist Churches. Over 2.500 singers and players participated in this, the greatest National Music Week Observance Plattsburg has ever known. Over 5,000 attended these con- certs and fifty-three organizations participated. This great week of music was made possible, due to the splendid cooperation coming from all school superin- tendents, principals, music supervisors, pastors and the participants. No one individual was responsible for the huge success of this year ' s music week observ- ance, but it was necessary for one individual to organize, serve as chairman and promote this never-to-be-forgotten week of music. Mr. Street deserves the out- standing distinction of making this the largest, best and most educational week of music that has ever been presented in the city of Plattsburg. — Reprinted from the Plattsburg Daily Press.

Street, who. due to illness, had been absent for the past two years. Guided by his intelligent leadership and forceful personality the Mixed Chorus has had a most enjoyable, successful and active year. Eighty men and women made up the personnel of the chorus. The member- ship was not restricted to only the best singers but to all those who could and would sing. The objective of the chorus was to give each individual enjoyment and an increasing appreciation of music through singing. It was due to this objec- tive that the attendance records were so good and the cooperation between director and members has been so effective. A selected group of forty students, including members of the orchestra and Mixed Chorus, participated in several concert tours. With a nucleus of thirty members it was possible for every member to take part in at least one presentation. The Normal School music department acted as host to the visiting musical organizations during the well-patronized programs of Music Week. |X- ' l IELKEY, WATSON. GAGNON. NAtiV. BORDK. LESTER. LACY.

The first semester was given over to the preparation of the concerts to be given in the second semester. Time was found, however, for the club, along with the girls ' trio and octette, to participate in the Wednesday noon broadcasts. During the second semester the Glee Club participated in concerts given in various towns. The club closed its activities of the year by taking an active part in the Music Festival held here at the Normal School from April 30 to May 3. A final get- together was held May 25 when a dance and party was held in the large gymnasium of our school. MANLKV. GORDON, COHEN, TODD, KI.IEST. cross, ri sterholtz. ST. MARIE WEST, BELL, DOUGLAS.

S. orchestra was organized and directed by Mr. Lyndon Street, who in September, 1936. after combating a three years ' illness, returned and was success- ful in reviving a love and interest in music among the students. His ambition, energy and strategy instilled the spirit of the Muses in the students, and created and interested public following. Our director arranged music trips to nearby and distant town or school halls where the orchestra formed the backbone of the musical programs presented. At the end of the school year this group will have traveled 1.312 miles — C ' adyville. Peru. Ausable Forks. Mooers. Rouses Point. F.li .abelhtown, Mincville. Churubusco. Westport, Granville, Tupper Lake. Lake Placid, and Olmstedville. After each concert the group enjoyed a tasty lunch served by the sponsors of the concerts. The orchestra and its members presented varied programs on the three days of the May Music Festival. It entertained the schoolmasters after their banquet. The orchestra, as is customary, played an important part in graduation exercises, Moving-up Day, and the Baccalaureate Service. None of this could have been accomplished had it not been for the friendly, united feeling among the group. These students have received valuable experi- ences, made new friends, gained confidence from public performances, learned to meet emergencies, and proved their courage to continue under strain and fatigue.

Proud in our new role as juniors, we took the bewildered freshmen under our wings and tried to make them feel more at home. At the annual school picnic, sponsored by the combined junior and senior classes, we became better acquainted with the freshmen. At a class meeting held early in the year we elected the following officers: president, Stephen Shemet; vice-president, Marie Thompson; secretary. Harold O ' Donnell; treasurer, Georgianna Mason. We showed rare judgment in our selection of a faculty advisor. We chose Doctor Redcay, who has helped us greatly through the year. Our Junior Prom proved itself to be the best dance ever held within the walls of our new Normal School. As our junior year draws to a close we look back over two eventful and happy years in which we have made a record which we are proud of. We are ready to enter our last year of .Normal confident that we can and will uphold that record. 188] OlKiWKI.l. MASON SHF.MKT. THOMPSON. DR.

[91] FRES1 IMAN I HSTORY In September, 1936, a group of scared to death students entered the portals of Plattsburg State Normal School. I nder the helpful guidance of their faculty advisor, Mrs. Mason, it was not long before they regained their usual confidence and composure and started their year ' s work with a class meeting at which they elected officers. The first week of school was a round of social events. The upperclassmen made them feel at home at a get-acquainted party, while the faculty introduced them- selves at a tea. The first social event of the year was in the form of a theater party at the Strand, followed by refreshments and dancing at the school. The weeks sped by and, having successfully weathered the mid-year examina- tions, they sponsored their 1937 Mid-year Ball on January 22. With the helpful guidance of Mr. Bagstcr-Collins the gymnasium was turned into under-sea gar- dens. A special twelve-piece orchestra played from the sunken hull of a ship, and the blue green flood lights gave the appearance of sea water. On March 29 they entertained the faculty at a tea in the Student Lounge. The next important function was the reception given in honor of Mr. and Mrs. Mason. May 19 was the date set for the annual dinner dance. As the members of the freshman class survey their year at Normal School, they experience a feeling of joy and anticipation. They are eagerly waiting to see what the next two years will bring forth. 192] WOOD.

Passing years increase that distance From those careless tears and smiles, Golden chords of recollections Build our friends across the miles. Pain and pleasure, joy and sorrow Shape and change us as they will, Leave unchanged a single corner Where our school days flourish still. Mrs. Simmons.

Don Lyon. PRAYER All I ask is one more dream, Just one more flame to nurse to fire. I shall not seek its faintest glow And stamping there watch it die, But I shall mask my dream with gold So bright, its flashes blinding me Will cloud my thoughts and satisfy.

When I can veiledly hear but cannot see The frothy white of water sliding Over slanted rocks, my thoughts go riding, Silent-plumed, lost in the billowing dark. My mind so then is free — without a spark Or wisp or film of me to blind its probe Into my self and draw from me my robe Of satisfied conceit: I see myself as one of common earth That God, in fancy, turned by common birth Into Man, as hoping for the ending Of the thoughtful, unrepaying spending Of his God-perfect talents and his arts, Then finding in the End a million parts, Each so black and smudged of soul by the fire Of love for self, as to show him with desire Alone nothing is complete.
