Inevitably with these war years, many of our students and alumni, as well as two members of the faculty, have changed the bent of the careers for service with the armed forces. That I small measure of recognition and appreciation might be given to the men and women of this college, an honor roll, sponsored by the House of Delegates, was placed in the main lobby last January. One hundred and sixty-eight names of P. S. T. C. students, from ' 29 to ' 46, arc listed; and Army, Navy, Marines, Merchant Marines, Air Corps, WAACS, WAVES, and RCAF are represented on the ever-expanding roll. Dr. Charles C. Ward Conviction, strong in this land, this people, this ttay of life — Belief, deep-rooted, inscribed to learning, building bright Tomorrow; Inspiration, making deep in purpose us who tilth our hearts hate experienced enduring faith. 8 943 CARDINAL This issue of the CARDINAL marks the close of our first full year as a war-time college. The impact of a world in tragic struggle has made many changes and developed many new values in our college life. In these twelve months we have learned something of sacrifice, we have worked harder and we have thought less of self. The in- creasing effort we have made to do our share in the nation ' s effort has given new emphasis to the long-time values of our American Way of Life. Again we have learned that eternal vigilance is the price of liberty and that there is no detour to justice and freedom. Anew we have realized that as the hope of one must be the hope of all, so the service of all must be the service of each one of us. In retrospect, those of us who are older know clearly the fineness and courage of American youth. Generations gone, who gave themselves that we might live, may rest in peace; our youth is all for which they hoped. Smiling and unafraid, we shall accept whatever task lies ahead, whether it comes to us here or in the more distant places of the earth. Because of this, we shall have our share in the greater America which lies ahead, an America whose vision includes a universal justice without which there can be no universal peace. CHARLES C.

DREAM BECOMES A REALITY In ihc spring of 1811, a commmcc se- lected i lo: on Oak Sired to be bounded on i lie south by a contemplated street to be laid out between the land of Mc- lantcton Smith and lot number 7, then owned by Abraham Brinkerholf, Jr., of New York City, and upon which the Pittsburgh Academy wai to be built. The building was immediately com- menced, and completed in the ome year. Bela Edgcrton was chosen as the first prin- cipal in 1112- ... It was in the year I • I that the Lancaster System was started in the Pitts- burgh Academy. This system was act u illy the nucleus of Teacher Training in Pitts- burgh .... FROM ACADEMY TO NORMAL SCHOOL . . . During the eighties, the people of Pittsburgh appealed to our educational ad- ministrator, Andrew S. Draper, who was State Superintendent of Public Instruction, in behalf of the proposal that an educa- tional institution should prepare leaden lor the civilization that was to come. The re- sult was the establishment of this great teacher training institution for the North Country — Pittsburgh State Normal School. ... In January 1888, Honorable Stephen Motrin, a member of the Assembly, in- troduced a bill pros ' iding for the establish- ment of said institution, which became a law that year. ... So it was that on September 3, 1890. Pittsburgh Normal School was opened with about 100 pupils enrolled. Principal Fox Holden was at the head of the faculty, consisting of 12 members. The first graduating class was in June 1191 .... DR. HAWKINS TAKES HELM ... In 1898 Dr. Jones resigned and w.s succeeded by Dr. George K. Hawkins, a member of the normal school faculty. In 1910, through the endeavors of Dr. Hawkins, the P.S.N.S. was given the authority to train commercial teachers for the high schools of the state. This was to be a three-year course .... It was in 1922 that Pittsburgh State Normal School became a three-year course for elementary teacher training, and in July of that same year, the first summer session was held .... TRAGEDY AND NEW BIRTH On Saturday, January 2«, 1929, Pitts- burgh sustained one of the most severe b ' ows in her histor) — the P.S.N.S. burned to the ground .... Because of the fire, there were inadequate facilities for housing the commercial de- partment, and in 1 9} I, it was transferred to Albany State Teachers College .... Construction on the new school was started in I9J0. and completed in I9JJ, at a cost of slightly over a million dollars. OUR TIMES EMERGE On June 5, I9J5, Dr. George K. Hawkins retired as principal of the normal school. He was recognized as one of the foremost educators in North Eastern New York. His resignation culminated service of 42 years: 7 as instructor of mathematics, and st as principal of the normal school. ... On June If, 19? J, Dr. Charles C. Ward. Director of Teacher Training in the State Department of Education, was ap- pointed by the Board of Kegents to suc- ceed Dr. Hawkins as principal .... MARCH QUICKENS Nineteen hundred thirty-seven marks the beginning of a new era in education for Pittsburgh Normal School in Elemen- tary Education Training. Provisional teaching certificates were issued with the diploma after the third year .... In September. 1937, a four-year course in Home Economics was established .... In May, 19)1, the Regents Hoard authorized that the three-year Elementary Course be lengthened to a four-year course. ... In October, I9J9. the Board of Regents granted a degree of Bachelor of Science in Education to members of the Home Economics Course. ... In January, 1942, the Board granted the degree of Bachelor of Education :o those completing the four-year Elementary Course. FROM NORMAL TO COLLEGE Thanks to Senator Feinberg and the many interested men of the North Country . i . the bill was finally passed on April It, 1942. when Pittsburgh Normal School be- came Pittsburgh Teachers College. ... I see it as an echo of the achieve- ments of thousands of men and women . . . an inspiration to the President, Dr. Charles C. Ward, faculty and students ... an everlasting tribute to past principals ... a definite goal within the reach of all de- siring higher education. 11 12 HOUSE OF DELEGATES Ml Mill KS Nancy Beaton Conroy Bccbie Kathleen Bcyette Hciiy Brannigan Eloiic Coolcy Helen lii..

Its members come from each organization in school thai holds a House charter. This year, in addition to its regular supervision of social affairs, assemblies, and student problems, the House spon- sored erection of the Honor Roll dedicated to those from the college now serving in the Armed Services. It also was instrumental in securing a space on the north bulletin board on which to post letters and pictures from men in the Services. Early in the fall, the House of Delegates received an invitation from Potsdam State Teachers College to send representatives to a conference to be held there on Educa- tion and World Reconstruction. It accepted, and Anne Cirassette, as House President, headed the group of dele- gates from the college. STUDENT COUNCIL Made up of the officer! and standing committees of the House of Delegates, the Student Council functions as a steering committee for House discussion by aiding the president in formulating plans for the coming meetings. Because of the Council, there can be much student dis- cussion at the House meetings. ll Mill KN OFFICERS Nancy Beaton Bttty Branninan Eloiw Coolcy Helen Daccy Julia Dunn Marie Ferretii Catherine Fritz Anne Grauettc Carita Harting Dorothy Hillbcrg Louise Maier Isabelle McPhillipi Bart O ' Brien Alice Roger Thnmat Rooney Anne Ryan Meri Shcchan SiJney Stutchbury Fileen Thurner PmiJenl ANNE GRASSETTE Vicr-PmiJcnt THOMAS ROONEY RecorJing SecrrUry NAN( V HI AHA CurrtiponJmn Srire Jtiei ELOISE COOLEY ALICE ROGERS 15 WOMEN ' S RESIDENCE BOARD Marian Barbour Helen Berquiu Miry Burke Audna Butler Mary Row Citcy Pheobe Dimoricr Ellen Dabbi Julia Dunn Genevieve Goodtpeed Elizabeth Hclimki Betty Hevteltinc Eunice Ledger Mary Lyoni Barbara Nye Kathleen ONeil Helen Ormandy Norma Poodry Anne Rabin Luella Rogers Marian Smith Martha Smith Harriet Snyder Marjorie Sprague Kathcrine Stark Caroline Swaniton Geneva Thompson Ha7cl Thornton Vera Vol Inter Vcrna VX ' imlow OFFICERS PnuJent BARBARA NYE Vne-PuuJcnl MARY LYONS Secretary MARIAN SMITH Women ' s Residence Board is the organization that makes sure P.S.T.S. gals get their bread and board (rationing allowing). Here, too, the representatives from each house get together to discuss and act on housing and boarding, problems that range from the number of vitamins needed in a daily diet to the how ' s and why ' s of house rules. The Board has come into its own this year, having, after three years of existence, not only drawn up a constitution but also having become a member of the House of Delc- gates. 16 INTERFRATERNITY COUNCIL Co-ordinator of sorority and fraternity affairs is the Interfraternity Council, more commonly known around the campus as Interfrat. Composed of two delegates from each fraternal organization, it aims to keep running smoothly business affecting all the organizations. The Council directed the Interfraternity Dance given last Fall for all members and rushees. Later it supervised the pledging and initiating of the new members.

As sophomores, they transformed the gymnasium into a representation of the Hialeah Race Track, and we danced at a Soiree we shall always remember. In 1941 they were juniors in a Teachers College, and busy working on the CARDINAL. Thanks to them— one more yearbook of pictures, write-ups and friendly comments was added to our college memoirs. VK ' hen Uncle Sam called — the class of 1943 answered, as of March I, with J allon. Fra ier, Mitchell, and their president for two-and-a-half years — Ralph Grovcr. All the other fellows arc in the reserved forces subject to call at any time. Now the class is carrying on under the leadership of Bessie Barbour — making plans for class day. baccalaureate, and graduation. They have every reason to be proud to be of the class of ' 43. • 21 RO« 1— Kenneth Allard. Tupper I.Ac, BL| Anne Hoglc Austin. Plamburgh, BL| Jane Ayre . Morritonville, U.K.; Be Mc I ' .uli.. nr.

SENIOR CLASS JUNIORS Juniors — only one more step to go — yet it seems but yesterday they crowded, wide-eyed, into a first Freshman Seminar. In one of their lighter moods they dreamed up those weird stalagmites and stalac- tites that everyone danced around at their Freshman Hop. Their Sophomore Soiree was really a circus — with popcorn and cokes for refreshments and a real live clown. Junior Week will always be remembered, by juniors as well as the ever-understanding faculty mem- bers — and who can forget getting the CARDINAL off to press? Forward as teachers go — that is, student teachers at first. Then comes the job for which they have been eagerly waiting and training.

They broke tradition when they elected a girl for their president — and Lillian Ratte did a grand job of leadership during their initial year. It was their idea to invest in material for a permanent ceiling to be used at dances — thus cutting expenses and conserving paper. As sophomores, they again showed originality by putting on a successful dance, despite sugar and gasoline shortages — dancing at a Fiesta down Mexico way — to the music of the 1211th Post band. This class also heard the call of Uncle Sam, and Casey, Fificld, Furncss, .Moore, and the class presi- dent — Trombly — had joined the fighting forces by March 1, while other members of the class enlisted in the Reserves. Wil know this class means it when they sing, in part of their class song, So we will all sail on together. For our goal is Victory.

Dur- ing their first week the honeyed sophomores were perfect hosts and hostesses, locating classrooms for lost frosh, introducing them to college haunts, and escorting them to teas and picnics. A few days later, however, the sophs showed their true colors by directing Dandelion Digging and other Freshman Initiation activities. The Freshman Hop kept step with its time by red, white, and blue decorations and the music of the 1211th Post band. As the year ended, the fre.hmen who remained after 41 frosh Reservists had entered active service felt that they had established their reputation as a class and hoped that their other three years would prove as successful as their first.

Mill , Garrow, Jones, Mayo, A. Murtagh, Wilson OUR RESERVES We are at war, and during war time, we must gear our college program to meet war needs. The primary aim of the War Curriculum Program in Physical Education is to help the Reserve to build up his strength and endurance, to increase his agility, and to improve his coordination. All this must be clone as quickly and as efficiently as possible so that he will be physically ready at his induction into the Armed Forces. The Plattsburgh program is largely based on the Naval V tests as set up by Virginia and North Carolina Universities. The activities stressed are drill tactics, rope climbing, apparatus, boxing, tum- bling, basketball, handball, tennis, badminton and touch football. An obstacle course affords the student a chance to work under conditions similar to those he will find in active service. The stu- dents in the Freshman War Curriculum class have passed all the minimum tests. We are very fortunate in having Captain Henry Smith from the Plattsburgh Barracks for marching tactics. Through him. the Reserves are taught the same tactics as those given to the man in active service.

With the Armed Forces re- quiring Pittsburgh strength and speed and athletic skill, this may have been basketball ' s swan song for the duration. If so, it was a swan song of moment, when, despite curtailment of schedule because of transportation difficulties, the dribble, the pivot, and the pass supplied intercollegiate thrills in plenty for the students of P.S.T.C. A double win over New Paltz, the Redbirds ' traditional rival, made the abbreviated and arduous season an outstanding success. And now the boys, following their Captain, turn to other and sterner fields, where Redbird competitive spirit, loyalty, and sportsmanship will shine on far-flung battlefronts, and the Cardi- nal and White gleam not unworthily beside another banner. -.4 P-L-A-T-T-SBURG FIGHT TEAM FIGHT!!!

This year, one of the organizations ' best, has seen them present two assemblies. They have contributed to the college ' s entertainment in other ways, as when the Mixed Chorus sang the Cantata at the Candlelight Service and the Varsity Septet and Girls ' Glee Club broad- cast programs over station WMFF. Fitting climax of the year ' s activities was the always memorable May Music Week Festival, in which all the organizations co-operated. 68 GIRLS ' GLEE CLUB GIRLS ' GLEE CLUB Doris Artibee Marcia bill Elizabeth Basieii Mary Bliu Marion Boyd Norma Carpenter Mary Rose Casey Carolyn Clark Janel Clifford Barbara Crosby Gcorgianna Day Marion Doubrava Beth Evcnson Marjoric Garland Shirley Gee Helen Haley Blodwyn Harris Ouida Hauft Mary Kitchen Anne Lake Marion LaVigne Pauline Lewis Elizabeth Martineau Frances May Grace McLaughlin Evelyn Miller Florence Miller Gertrude Miller Mary Miller Lois Monnctte Ethel Murnanc Julia Nagy Barbara Nye Dorothy O ' Donnell Norma Poodry Jean Porter Lillian Ratte Luella Rogers Mildred Rupplcin Rita Ryan Addie Saltsman Inez Schaad Evelyn Smith Mary St. Maxens Beatrice Turcotte Helen Waldron Beverly Welch Genevieve Wright Atcompiniit Phebe Dimorier ORCHESTRA Conroy Betbie llcne Birnbaum Marion Boyd Mary Bliss Janet C lifford Gcorgianna Day Helen l- ' inklc Dorothy Forrest Miriam Grant Carita Harting Elizabeth Hcthcnngton Judson Lanctot Ruth Mattcson Beatrice Owen Lillian Ratte Virginia Robinson Carmin Santor Charles Signor Donald Spiers MIXED CHORUS Conroy Beebic Frederick Burnham Carolyn Clark Doris Crossett Robert Kay Esther Labarc Marion LaVigne Louise Maier Ruth Matthews Florence Miller Julia Nagy Barbara Nye Jean Porter Mildred Rupplcin Hclcne Slupski Mary Sullivan Bertram VanDcrbilt Ora Walker Helen Wilson Joseph Young VARSITY SEXTET Barbara Nye Phebe Dimorier Julia Nagy Jean Pepper Lillian Ratte Luella Rogers Esther Labarc Accomft4 iil — Grace Bui FRESHMAN OCTET Marion Bovd Shirley Gee Ouida Hauft Gertrude Miller Mildred Rupplcin Inez Schaad Vera Podoroz.ny Mary Miller • 70 LAMRON MI MM RS Carrie Allen Francit Bcryin Grace Burnt Carolyn Clark Dorotn.

' The Agos, trying to do their utmost in the war effort, took heed of the slogan by purchasing a number of bonds. Realizing that this was a gesture in earnest of further effort, they put other plans upon a war-time footing. The Sorority year began in October and initiated activity in No- vember with a tea for the student body. Then AKO delighted its rushees with an old-fashioned black-face minstrel show for the Rush Party. Traditionally the Agonians joined with the other sororities in the Interfraternity Dance for rushees. In February, the Pledge Banquet was held at the Hotel Cumberland, with festivities cul- minating in the pledging at midnight — the solemn and beautiful Ago way. Hell Week provided the final test for the pledgees. Through bathing caps, braids, paste, and horrible clothes, their characters were proved. A year of happiness was climaxed by the annual Farewell Banquet in June. 72 DELTA CLIO PrniJ™:— ELOISE COOLEY Vitr-PrvsiJcnt — ROBERTA KIRK Secretary — LUELLA ROGERS Treasurer — LOUISE MAIER Even though a majority vote of all chapters postponing Convocation for the duration shelved carefully conceived ideas and plans, the Clios had an exciting year ....

The Interfrat shindig started the rush season, with farmerettes and their prize animals pro- ceeding to a Clio fair .... Then there were the Pledge Banquet, the Initiation Supper, and the Senior Breakfast .... picnics and parties .... And now it ' s good-bye to another year of fun, folly, and lasting friendships, though where the dream lingers, good-bye is the paradox that fortifies the heart.

They went native — native Swiss — at the rush shindig — complete with chalets and sus- penders. Another tradition carried on — the spaghetti supper with yards and yards of stories, and spaghetti, of course. Lots of laughs and solemnity at the meetings. Then the horrible spectacle of the pledgees, groveling before the hard-hearted members. Came the night of formal initiation, and the beauty of the ceremony made up for it all. Finale — the merriest, and the saddest occasion of the year — the Farewell Banquet to the Seniors— exit the old life and welcome the new. 74 DELTA TAU CHI The nine members who returned last fall (all of whom were in the Reserves) decided to make the fifteenth chapter of the club the final — for the duration. The fraternity was active until January, holding regular meetings and pot-luck suppers and working on the Interfrat dance. The climax of the year was a closing party held at the home of Mr. Moyer. 7$ PURVEYORS OF THE WRITTEN WORD Doris Arlibee Marion Bcur Philip Bremser Carol Brining Bci li I enson Gcraldinc Francis Hilton Iteming Virginia Hcrrnn Marian Huntington Helen Johnson Evelyn Junior Jane Lyons Jean McGinnis Gertrude Murtagh Shirley Perry Patricia Robbint Nancy Schncible Agatha Smith Marian Smith Harriet Snyder Donald Spiers Kathcrinr Stark Janet Stewart Nancy Stoughton Francis Turner Fjilor-in-Cbief — HILTON HEMING Managing FJilor — PATRICIA ROBBINS Win Editor — GERTRUDE MURTAGH Feature FJilor— SHIRLEY PERRY Ass ' l.

During the year 1942-43, the newspaper successfully sponsored the Buy a Jeep war stamp drive, and co-sponsored a second stamp drive which made Doreen Lyons Campus Queen. Greeting the Freshmen with its first issue on the opening day of school, the newspaper maintained its bi-weekly publication schedule in spite of the mid-year shake-up which saw Patricia Robbins become editor-in-chief to replace Hilton Heming, who left school for active duty in the Armed Services. Ample reward for the year ' s work came in the shape of a third-class honor rating from the Associated Collegiate Press. 7€ THE TOWER ■ Staff EJilor — DORIS ARTIBEE AimttHt — AGATHA SMITH IfoUfJaj hJilor — SHIRLEY PERRY Aniiltnl — GERALDINE FRANCIS CitcuUHoh Ms gn — BETH EVENSON Atiiittal — LOUISE COSENZA Delegdte — ELIZABETH BRANNIGAN For the past eight years The Tower has been the literary magazine of the college. It is a semi-annual periodical written and edited by the students, and presenting for the pleasure of its patrons story, essay, article, verse, and critical review — the last in measure palatably limited. The writing varies in tone and theme from the lightly humorous to the seriously analytical. The sophomore composition classes, other students interested in writing, and the staff are numbered among its contributors. 77 SENIORS Jane Ay ret Miry Burke Eloitc Coolcy Margaret l evo June Doctor Glcnicc I odd ' - Elcanor Edwards Jcjn Eft Blanch Fee Dorothy Eorrcst Helen (iaylord Miriam Grant Constance Green Mary lit..

Duties were divided, and novel menus were prepared by people who knew that they would not have to wash the dishes. Largest event of the Supper Club ' s year was the sponsorship of the All-College Supper, honoring the basketball team. Almost the entire student body gathered to enjoy a delicious meal and unique program at this informal gathering. si CONTEMPORARY PROBLEMS FORUM The Contemporary Problems Forum is composed of a group of students who meet to discuss, informally, current problems such as rationing and various phases of the war. For each meeting there is a different steering committee to dispense specific information as the need arises. Membership is not fixed, as any student may attend who so desires. The meetings are held in the lounge, or in the homes of faculty advisers, where refreshments are usually served. An informal at- mosphere proves conducive to discussion. The group is fortunate in having, not one, but three faculty ad- visers: Dr. Alfred Diebolt, Professor Charles Smith and Dr. Stephen Chaconas. 82 ART AND CAMERA CLUB President — JANE STANTON Secretary-Treasurer — BARBARA RYAN MARJORIE DUCHARME FRANCES MAY LOUISE EDWARDS MARY RAFFA DOROTHY ISSETT ANNA RYAN ROBERTA KELLOGG BARBARA RYAN MARY KITCHEN JANE STANTON KENNETH MARRIOTT HAZEL THORNTON MARGARET WHITTEMORE FRANCES WILSON JOSEPH YOUNG Art and Camera Club opens green pastures to friends of the paint- pot and birdie-clicker.

Though gas was not to be had for actual visits to rural schools this year, discussions served a good second, and club members learned much of the economic, social and cultural background of the rural school, its organization and the part the Grange and 4-H Club play in rural life. 4 THE PARNASSIAN SrconJ Row — llarlrr, C.
