As the comple- ment of its fellow publication, a college annual displays in perspective these pieces fitted into a permanent mosaic of a year's experiences. The annual staff presents this year's SAGAMORE with the hope that it will give pleasure and satisfaction to every student who has watched the pattern evolve. MARY LOU AMES Editor HM I-IAYNES Business Manager Dedication This affable gentleman has in one way or another touched the life of every student of Southeast Missouri State College dur- ing the past ten years. Students have known and respected his careful scholarship as Professor of English. He is more Widely known for his service as critic for both campus and Community Theatre productions, a position for which he is especially well fitted by a background of early acting experience. lt is through his sponsorship of the CAPAHA ARROW that his influence on campus is most Widely felt. With his distinctive chuckle under a rising haze of smoke, he has good-humoredly and skillfully guided Minnie and Company through ten years of producing a high-ranking student newspaper. To Dr. Lynn H. Harris, with sincere admiration, we dedicate the 1955 SAGAMORE. -4- DH.

This council through its various committees attempts to promulgate and co- ordinate the activities ot the student body. The Student Council begin its year's activities with an active participation in the Freshman Orien- tation Program. Throughout the year, the council assists and organizes many projects among which have been the campaign tor campus beautification and the annual All-College Carnival, which is put on to raise money to help provide tor a big name band tor the spring formal. A Carnival Queen is elected from the student body and a Carnival Bull- slinger is elected from members ot the various service clubs in Cape Girardeau. This year the Queen was Mary lo Adams and the Bullslinger Was Bob Schultz of Cape's Lions Club. As a special part oi its activities, the Council enjoys reciprocal visits with the Student Council oi Southern Illinois University to exchange ideas and compare accomplishments. Also during the year the Council entertains its members With a banquet with some prominent local figure dellvering the prin- cipal address. The climax oi a year ot Work, elections, and social activities, is the assembly for giving awards to members and the annual spring picnic. -524 Sncial Life llnmmitten OFFICERS Chairman --- ....,,................. ..... D ean Holmes Secretary --- ..... C-- Cecelia Morgan Behind the scenes of almost every all-college social function, the resources of the Social Life Com- mittee have been put to full use. To begin a successful year, the freshmen need to'be made aware that there is a social side to col- lege life, and therefore assisting in freshman orien- tation is the first large responsibility of this commit- tee. lt sees to it that from the opening day of school in September to the very last day in the spring term the social life of the campus is never dull. An annual well-anticipated surprise function Was again held in Capaha Park, featuring the stu- dent-faculty ballgame and a Watermelon feed to celebrate the victory of the students. The fall formal with its atmosphere of a dreamy year just begun faded into memories as the Hal- loween party lwith too many doughnuts and too much ciderl, the sock hop with its bubble-gum and peanuts and many unusual games, the after-the- game dances, all led into the SAG!-XMORE Ball, the much-awaited event of the year. The Christ- mas caroling party found another spot in the whirl of events. The All-College Carnival was held again in lanuary in order to raise money for the name band obtained for the spring formal. Fern Frolic gave the debs a chance to do the squiring and ties made by the girls were the order of the day in wearing apparel. The T.V., magazines, and records available in Memorial Hall, as Well as the movies, the all-col- lege swims, the Saturday night parties, and the Sag-signing party were all a part of the many con- tributions provided by the school through this com- mittee. But the brightest spot of the year was the spring formal, including a concert and dance, at which the Sauter-Finegan Orchestra performed. The success of the year is not judged by the activities of the Social Life Committee itself, but by the enjoyment which the students as a whole are given throughout the year by these activities.

Under the direction and guidance ot Miss Mary Lou Ames all of us have combined our eitorts to bring you, in our estimation, the most outstanding book oi the year.

In the midst ot all these details Sag demanded a party on December 12, to celebrate his birthday. The SAGAMORE Ball Was just around the corner, and all of us scurried around making the candy canes and the sugar plums and iashioning gum drop corsages tor the exciting Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy. After a diligent count ot the ballots by our adviser, Miss Suddath, the stati was very happy to see the lovely SAGAMOBE Queen crowned - Miss Agnes Neudeck, the Mark Twain- Hesperian candidate.

The paper received high ratings in the contests in which it was entered this year. The Associated Collegiate Press awarded it a rating of First and the Columbia Scholastic Press, Columbia Univer- sity, awarded it a rating of Medalist. There were extra activities, too, for Minnie and her staff, such as Sag's birthday party in December, the Homecoming Parade, and Minnie's own birth- day party in May to which Sag and the members oi the SAGAMOBE stait were invited. That interest in the paper has increased was indicated by the fact that there were overflow clas- ses in the Newswriting Course each term. Row 2: Ron Danback, Bob Vogelsang, Clinton Wunderlich.

Doherty The Alpha Epsilon Chapter of Phi Alpha Theta is distinguished for the fact that it was the first chapter oi the national organization to be installed on a state college campus in Missouri. The year of this installation was 1942. Membership in Phi Alpha Theta is indeed an achievement for any history major or minor because the fraternity is an honorary one and high standards of qualification must be met. A minimum of twelve hours of history, a scholastic rating of a B+ in history, and a B average for at least two thirds of all other courses are the requirements for en- trance into this organization. Since the fraternity is honorary, regular meet- ings are not scheduled throughout the year. To carry out the business, however, officers were elected during the fall term. New members were received during the spring term at a formal and impressive ceremony. During this ceremony con- sisting of a secret ritual, the fraternity emblem was explained, and initiates were awarded certificates of membership and the symbolic red rose with satin streamers in the chapter colors. A banquet brought the activities of the organ- ization to a close for the school year. Row 2: Mercedes Keller, Harry F. Acre, Ir., Dr. McConkey, Dr. Hamilton, Dr. Collins, Leland E.

The first big event ot the year was the regional meeting at Maryville which Iudy Schwartz, Ioe Ann West, and the sponsor, Miss Margaret Strahl- mann, attended as delegates.

The big project of the year was the compiling of information on the many phases of home eco- nomics to be put into book form to serve incoming freshmen and high school seniors. The successful year was brought to a close with a farewell party honoring graduating seniors.

Membership is limited to outstanding stu- dents in the field of English. In November the new candidates for member- ship Were initiated into the fraternity. During the initiation the students were given the explanation of the club motto, Truth, Sincerity, and Design. This year publication of the Quiver, a book- let Written, edited, and published each month by members of the local chapter of the fraternity, Was resumed.

Any freshman who had made at least two B's in his English compo- sition courses was eligible to enter the contest. The selection of the winner is based upon his score rnade in a competitive standardized English test and upon his ability shown by a piece of creative Writing.

Iv fiss I-lix, Miss Bedford Beta Gamma Chapter of Kappa Pi holds month- ly meetings, each planned by two or more of the members. The programs are varied and cover many areas in the field of art. These programs include talks by guest speakers who provide the organization with a wealth of interesting and cur- rent information. Members of this chapter were again Well repre- sented this year in the annual art exhibit held by the Southeast Missourian, many pieces of their work being on display there. The Christmas season found Kappa Pi form- ally initiating nine new members' at its annual Christmas party. After the impressive ceremony, handmade gifts were exchanged by the members and the pledges were presented with hand-deco- rated mugs. Being an active part of the whole school is necessarily a vital part of belonging to an honor organization, and therefore Kappa Pi added to its list of projects for the year the designing of an emblem to be used on the pocket of school sport shirts. Kappa Pi also operated a booth featuring cut paper silhouettes at the all-college carnival held in Ianuary. ln February, in cooperation with Terpsichore, Kappa Pi aided in bringing a renowned Dance Duo group to the campus for a dance concert. Spring brings with it the thoughts of picnics and outings and Kappa Pi joined in with its annual spring picnic and special meetings. It is easy to recognize the significance of be- longing to an organization which not only recog- nizes achievement in the field of art but also pro- vides for continued interests and learning.

Each member ot the club purchased a blue denim jacket With the emblem representing the field of agriculture on it to identify him as a club mem- ber. Projects ot the club this year included the con- struction ot a self-feeder for the hogs which the Agriculture Club is raising and the purchasing ot carpentry tools to facilitate the carrying out of future club enterprises. On lanuary 28, the club again entered into the social Whirl with a square dance to which they in- vited their dates. ln the spring, the Agricultural ludging Contests were held. These contests were open to the Voca- tional and General Agriculture high school students in this area. The members ot the Ag Club took charge of these contests.

Membership in the Association for Childhood Education is offered to all future elementary teachers and supervisors. Its scope is far reaching beyond college life and includes both immediate and ulti- mate aims. The organization works to raise the standard of preparation and to encourage continued professional growth of its future teachers. By coop- erating with groups interested in children at home, in school, and in the community, it gives an integ- rated understanding of child lite. The first meeting of ACE was a picnic to tell those interested in joining what ACE means Gnd ------ Frances Sander --- Norma Lee Schultz -------- Mary 'Hubbard --- Linnet Gerhardt Dean ----- Mary Sue Bitter --- Shirley Sander ----- Miss Gross the purpose of the organization. In another meet- ing Mr. Schlieve talked on the importance of visual aids in schools, and showed a film on teach- er improvement. The December meeting was a Christmas work- shop, and Miss Bedford gave interesting ideas for Christmas decorations and ways to make Christmas meaningful for children. In April Miss Gross and some members of the organization went to Kansas City for the ACE study conference. Near the close of the year, the annual spring ACE picnic was held. Debate During the 1954-1955 debate season the mem- bers oi the Intercollegiate Debate Squad engaged in the annual tournaments at Northeast Missouri State College, Kirksville, Missouriy at Illinois State Normal University, Normal, Illinois: and at Central Missouri State College, Warrensburg, Missouri. An individ- ual debate was held with Murray State College, Murray, Kentucky.

Early in the tall, voices could be heard lustily proclaiming the merrirnent of the Home Economics Club members - for it was the annual hay ride and steak fry given for the girls by the Agriculture Club. The return engagement was in the form of a Sock Hop. This was one of the opening social events tor the club and its fifty-two members who are interested in either a major or minor in the field of home economics. Gangland again invaded Cape State when for the second year the club sponsored The Cookie Ring as a money making project. Cookies were made and sold to students and organizations for their Christmas parties. The members also pre- pared and served the Kappa Omicron Phi Found- ers Day Banquet to give a lift to their treasury. There were several other sessions such as the candy pul1, the cookie and package decorating contest at Christmas, and the United Nations Day -55- -----,- Mrs. Gehrs talk by Maria van Melle in which the members learned as well as had fun. As a state project, the club members tackled the job of issuing a state newsletter. ln the early spring several of the members and Miss Strahlmann, who had the honor of being the 1954 State Home Economics Club adviser, attend- ed the state meeting in Columbia. The club was proud of its seamstresses who modeled their gar- ments at the meeting. To display their talents and the latest styles, the girls presented a public fashion show. Many high school pupils from surrounding towns attended. A party in honor of the graduating seniors and the most outstanding member of the Home Eco- nomics Club for the year was held at the Home Management I-louse in May. lnrlustrial rts llluh OFFICERS President --------- ----------- s -U -g.--.-..M..

This year, as last, the club added to its treas- ury and prestige by making and selling several different types of wooden toys. These toys were sold through several business concerns during the Christmas season. Members of the various frater- nal organizations on campus will carry a lasting impression of the Industrial Arts Club, as this club manufactures the paddles with which all pledges make an acquaintance. This project is a continu- ous one, as each term there are new orders placed by the organizations. ln the way of purely social functions this club has an annual spring outing that the members always look forward to, along with other social gatherings from time to time as the occasion arises. Other social functions of this club are visits to local concerns to gain new knowledge and ideas that will be beneficial in making their club more successful. Along with other organizations on campus this one contributes to the college spirit by entering a float in the annual Homecoming Parade. Row 2: Kelly I-linman, Robert Lang, David Latimer, Merle C.

Dr. McConkey, Mr. Cleaver The purpose of the International Relations Club is to offer to those students interested an opportun- ity to discuss current problems of national and international importance. The meetings are held every second and fourth Tuesday with a prearranged topic for discussion. The president presides over these meetings as a moderator to guide the discussion along logical lines and to keep points irrelevant to the subject matter from clouding the issue. This year the club reaffiliated with the Associa- tion of International Relations Clubs, after a short lapse. This move proved to be fortunate, as the Association sends reference material on the vari- ous subiects when requested. Each student now receives a pamphlet giving detailed information on the topic chosen for the next meeting. The topics for discussion are chosen by a three- rnan advisory board elected by the club members. Some of the topics discussed this year were: The Southeast Asia Treaty Organization, The College System of Education - ls It Adequate? Should We Share Atomic Secrets with the World? The Foreign Diplomatic Service as a Vocation, and Puerto Rico. A fifteen-minute program over KFVS highlighted the activities of the year, as the club discussed the question, Should We Try to Promote Better Under- standing with Foreign Countries? The club feels that this effort gave the listeners some insight into what the Cape State student is thinking. of interna- tional affairs today.

Hunt Library Staff To find one of the most industrious, courteous, and efficient groups oi people on the campus, one does not need to look far. Across the Divide from Academic Hall in the large stone building is the place Where the Kent Library Staff carries on its Work. Any habitue' of the library will give testi- mony to the fact that this staff is the embodiment of friendly, efficient service. Even though many of the jobs are routine, such as checking in books and returning them to the stacks, or notifying forgetful students and collecting fines from delinquent read- ers, it is seldom dull Work because sooner or later every student on the campus comes in contact with the library - either willingly or unwillingly. The books on the main floor of the library were on the move this year to enable them to be placed in such a manner as to afford more space and to make more room for the accommodation of still more volumes. The Audio-Visual Department of the library came into prominence this year When, under the sponsorship of Mr. Holland Schlieve, the department held a Workshop for the teachers of the surround- ing area. This undertaking proved to be a tre- mendous success. The festive Christmas decorations in the library helped arouse the spirit of Christmas on the campus. The sparkling Christmas tree in the vestibule evoked at least a passing glance from even the most stud- ious Cape Stater. Being subjected to all this con- tagious Yuletidiness, the library staff found it im- possible to resist having a Christmas party. So that Kent would not become a dull boy there were numerous parties held regularly through- out the year by the staff. The library staff worked endlessly and diligently, but all members ofthe staff will undoubtedly look back upon the events of this year with pleasure and satisfaction. -53- Ilappella Ilhnir The A Cappella Choir, directed by Mr. I. Clyde Brandt, has enjoyed its very successful nineteenth year at Cape State. Music ranging from popular and iolksongs to classical numbers was sung beau- tifully and enthusiastically. The choral organiza- tion meets on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday evenings of each week. Each fall tryouts are held tor those wishing to join. Credit in this organization is optional, and may be obtained along with enjoyment. The choir has an important and active place in the musical lite of the school. Highlights oi its activities include an assembly given in Ianuary, which was heartily acclaimed as one oi the best assemblies. Another activity is the choir's partici- pation in the Christmas Vesper Service. Various selections were sung which added to the feeling oi Christmas inspiration. A third important activity, one which brings much honor to Cape State, is the annual tour of the A Cappella Choir. This year the choir toured the St. Louis area, lanuary 31 and Feb- ruary l, giving performances at Herculaneum, Eureka, Maplewood, Eestus, and Esther. At the close oi the year the choir sang impres- sively at the Baccalaureate and Commencement Services. l Row 4: William F.

Band Without a band to enliven school spirit, no col- lege is complete. Under the direction of Mr. O. Louis Wilcox, the band at Cape State was alert and on its toes this past year, doing a wonderful job ot promoting school spirit. At every home football and basketball game, the band gave its renditions of the peppy marches everyone delights to hear. Among the all time favorites were On, Old ln- dians and the beloved Alma Mater. The band added its rhythmic drumbeat to the Homecoming Parade, and its corps of Indian-maiden twirlers stepped smartly as the band marched gaily through the streets. Getting into the spirit of the holidays, the band participated in the Christmas Parade and helped the City ot Cape Girardeau give a Welcome to Santa Claus. The climatic event oi a busy year tor the band came on Ianuary 26 when the accomplishments oi this energetic group were displayed to the student body at the annual band concert. -70- Urcheslra The strains of music floating through the air on Tuesdays, fifth hour, and Thursdays, fourth hour, come from the versatile college orchestra, under the direction of Mr. Fritz Heim. Upon investigation one will find the orchestra in the auditorium hard at work in preparation for meeting the public with one or another of its many performances. Foremost and most familiar of these perform- ances is, of course, the opening number played on Wednesday mornings for assemblies. With Sleigh Ride or Slavonic Dance or another favorite clas- sical or semiclassical piece, the howling herd is soothed and quieted and made ready for announce- ments and the rest of the assembly. Together with Black Mask and the Music Club, the orchestra played under the direction of Miss Frieda Rieck for the musical production, Knicker- bocker Holiday. The orchestra gave a full assembly in April, which was very well received. The climax of the year's activities was the spring tour to high schools in Poplar Bluff, Sikeston, Chaffee, Dexter, Kennett, and Caruthersville.

Therefore the Music Club tries to fill a part of this need in the lives of the students on campus. It is an unrestricted or- ganization. The only requirements for membership are that those who belong enjoy music, be sincere in their desire to increase their understanding and appreciation of its various forms, and maintain aver- age grades. Music Club members served as ushers at the Community Concerts and other musical functions this year. The student body was taken en masse to Hernando's Hideaway when the Music Club presented its assembly. Choral numbers by such composers as Bach, Handel, and Beethoven com- prised the inspiring Christmas program given this year. February found all the members of the Music Club Working industriously on its annual musical which it presented in collaboration with Black Mask. This year's production was entitled Knick- erbocker Holiday. The Music Club lent a helping hand at the annual music festival and contests this spring by assisting in various Ways. -72- lVIl1SiII Eluh Row 2: Delores Barton, lane Austin, Mary Bauerle, Hilda Pape, Carol Draper, Ioy Zimmer- man, Iean Phillips.

This year Black Mask presented The Madwoman of Chatl- lot, Knickerbocker Holiday in conjunction with the music club, and The Mulberry Bush, a pro- duction in the round, or arena style. The society gives training in each phase of put- ting on a production. lt encourages students in the arts of acting, makeup, and stage management. Participation in productions is not limited to Black Mask members alone, and thus all students 174- on campus are given a chance to shine before the footlights. Early in the fall term all the members and pledges sold season books to students and general public. The salesman who sold the most books was given an extra commission as a reward lor his industriousness. The Black Mask Society was kept busy spring term with its production and the high school play contests. The activities of the year were brought to a close with the spring banquet. At this time the awards to the outstanding actors 'were pre- sented. Thus the lights dimmed on another suc- cessful and eventful year for the members of the Black Mask dramatic society.

Cheerleaders With great exuberance, Cape State's seven cheerleaders led the yells of the spectators at the Indians' games. Seven oi the cheerleaders were back from last year, leaving room for only three alternates. At the beginning of fall term Ioan Porter, Kay Riggs, and Mary Harrison were chosen as the alternates, Before the Homecoming Game they promoted school spirit by conducting the traditional pep-rally and snake dance. Their enthusiasm and that which they aroused in the students inspired the team to victory. During the basketball season, good sportsman- ship prevailed When these seven misses led a Wel- come cheer to all visiting teams. School spirit soared when the cheerleaders, Wearing Indian head- bands, led the basketball team onto the court with tribal war cries. All year this septet worked hard and success- tully to promote strong school spirit and good sports- manship among Cape State students. -76-. arsity llluh OFFICERS President - ,........................A .....

This Haitian group was Widely acclaimed as beneficial by the members ot Terpsichore. A Christmas assembly Was given December 9, danced to the music of George Malacrino. As the program was said to have been the best one in years, all the hours spent practicing were Worth while. The All-College Carnival, held Ianuary 15, had the benefit of a Honky-Tonk show put on by Terpsichore. This short program featured such dances as Down Home Rag, The Prisoner Song, and many others. The Terps placed first in money- rnaking tor the shows. On February 17 Terpsichore had the privilege ot sponsoring a modern dance group from New York.

A round of rush parties followed to acquaint new campus men with the fraternity members and functions. One of the main events of the year for the Sig Taus was the formation of a sister organization, the Kappa Tau Gamma society.

To conclude the year's activities, the members of the fraternity and their guests enjoyed the tra- ditional White Rose Ball and the crowning of the Rose of Sigma Tau Gamma. ,84- Sigma Tau Iiamma Row 3: Don Morie, D.

One of the first events was the annual alumnae card party held in Mem- orial Hall. The active Sigmas donned their aprons and served as waitresses to help their older sisters make this party a success. Chapter Inspector, Madge Towell, came to in- spect the Beta Xi Chapter early in October. The sorority gave a tea to introduce Miss Towell to the officers and sponsors of the other women's organiza- tions on the campus. As the time for the Homecoming activities drew near, all the Tri Sigmas were energetically working out ideas for the house and float decorating contests. The lights dimmed and curtains parted - the Sigmas were on stage. The first Tri Sigma pro- duction, Ladies in Retirement, was presented, aptly displaying the dramatic talents of the Sigmas. Rush found the Sigmas in Television Land. The day began with Breakfast in Hollywood and continued with This ls Your Life and Toast of the Town, and ended with the Rushees' attending the traditional Greek Party. The pledges and active members put their thinking caps on and came up with idea ot a Fun House for the sorority's contribution to the all-col- lege carnival. Pig-in-a-Poke sale, a bake sale, work days, and other projects kept the Sigmas busy with money- making endeavors. Over-nights and parties at the homes of town members gave a variety of social activities for the Tri Sigmas. An Easter egg hunt was sponsored by the sorority for underprivileged children. The activities included games, gifts, and refreshments given with the compliments of the Easter Bunny himself. April 25, Founders Day, was commemorated by the traditional formal dinner which was combined with the alumnae-sponsored Senior Send-off. A spring-time setting was in order for the Sigma Spring Tea. The local chapter of Sigma Sigma Sigma, Beta Xi, had tour candles on its birthday cake as it brought to a conclusion the activities of a most busy and successful year at the chapter birthday party on May l2.

The Missouri Zeta Chapter of Sigma Phi Epsi- lon completed its first full year of operation, and a very successful one it was. Beginning the year with twenty active members the Sig Eps increased to a membership of over seventy men by the end of the winter term. The Sig Ep social calendar officially got under- way during the last Week of October when the Mis- souri Zeta Chapter played host to Missouri's five other Sigma Phi Epsilon Chapters for the first All- State Sig Ep Weekend. The year's first glory was captured by the fraternity when it took first prize, with its sister society Sorosis, in the Homecoming float contest. December 5 brought the first annual anniver- sary banquet for the Sig Eps. At the Colonial Tav- ern, the fraternity wined and dined in commemo- ration of their first year on the campus as a national fraternity. ------ Mr. Heim Another victory for the Sig Eps was the cap- turing of the crown for their candidate of Carnival Queen at the annual all-college carnival. In February the local Sigma Phi Epsilon Chap- ter was honored by being chosen the installation team which initiated a new chapter of Sigma Phi Epsilon at Arkansas State College. Also during February, the -Missouri Zetas were guests of the Missouri Alpha Chapter of Sigma Phi Epsilon at Missouri University for the second annual All-State Basketball Tournament. April 13-17 were the dates of the 1955 Sig Ep- Sorosis production which introduced to the camp- us an entirely new mode in college entertainment. The Sig Eps ended the year with the annual Sweetheart Ball, preceded by a month of parties leading up to this their biggest event.

Another triumph ot which the society Was justly proud was the crowning of Carol Wom- ack as Varsity Queen. During rush season Sorosis took its rushees on a mythical excursion to Storybook Land. For the breakfast party Little Black Samba and his adventures were ieatured. All the rushees became modern Robinson Crusoes and ate lunch on Treas- ure lslandf' The day oi fun and irolic was climaxed with the impressive Cinderella's Ball. Fourteen rushees were pledged to the society. The Sorosis-Sigma Phi Epsilon candidate tor SAGAMORE Queen was Ianet Sue Stewart. The Christmas Tea, held December 17, with a background oi Christmas carols sung throughout the afternoon by the Sorosis Choir, imparted the Christmas spirit to all those present. On December 19, all the members could have been found at the annual Christmas party tor underpriviliged child- IGH. In January Sorosis-Sig Ep held a white mouse race which added much hilarity to the all-college carnival. Pledges were entertained by the society mem- bers on February 8 at a rollicking hobo party, and in conjunction with the S-ig Ep pledges the Sorosis pledges surprised the members of the two organizations with a Valentine Party held in the Memorial Hall Ballroom. Business was combined with pleasure in pre- senting the Sig Ep-Sorosis production held April 13-17 in the Little Theater. The Alumnae Banquet and the Mother and Daughter Banquet were cul- minating activities ior the society.

Dancing and refreshments climaxed the evening's activities. An Old Fashion Barnwarmingu was the theme for the first Mark Twain rush party in which over twenty-five bales of straw were brought into Mem- orial Hall as part of the elaborate decorations. The Hespies did their part by serving food. Hillbilly and Western entertainment were the highlights of the evening. As always, spontaneous parties of all types were sandwiched in between the organized gatherings. Several get-togethers were at Ellis Park, and on other occasions the M. T.'s and l-lespies met at the divide to go on skating parties. Homecoming provided another Mark Twain- Hesperian float that received honorable mention, and the Christmas Parade offered the opportunity, which the Mark Twains took advantage of to add the first place money to their treasury. Two rush parties in about as many weeks showed that the Twains know what parties are. The annual La Cate Petite party presented the usual French paintings, music, and can-can dancers. At a dinner party Mr. Luther l-lahs, former Twain and now a successful teacher and salesman, provided a laugh a second with his after dinner speech. December l8 was the apex of the Mark Twains' yearly activities when, with the Hesperians, their candidate, Miss Agnes Neudeck, was crowned SAGAMORB Queen for lQ55. After the Christmas holidays, the Mark Twains joined the Hesperians in presenting the London hit play, See How They Run, by Frances Swann. lt proved to be the third straight hit for the Twain- Hespie alliance. Campaigning for this production carried the organizations down town to Main Street to perform in a variety show at which time Mayor Narvol Randol, a former Mark Twain and now Mayor of Cape Girardeau, was presented two compliment- ary tickets. March saw the opening of APO's Ugly Man contest, and the Twains entered their able candi- date, Bill Grimsley. March also brought another rush party and a movie sponsored by the Twains, at the Broadway Theater. Also they aided the Hes- perians in their annual St. Pat's Tea. Along with the l-lespies, the Mark Twains had their annual outing the Sunday following the yearly banquet and dance. -92- Mark Twain Snninty Bow 3: lim Noland, Bob Winters, Bill Haman, Eugene Myers, Dick Prevallet, Bill Friday, Wil- liam G.

Homecoming saw the Mark Twain-Hesperian float Thar She Blows receiving an honorable mention. Their elaborate Christmas float, Getting Ready for Christmas, captured the first prize ot SlOU. The morning oi December 6 found some very sleepy rushees being whisked away to Cell Block ll Where they were heartily received by besiriped inmates who regaled them with the advantages ot being members of their institution. For lunch fish was served in the dining room ot a steamboat as a suggestion oi Lite on the Mississippi. The evening party took the prospective Hespies from the river to the Sea Around Us, the scene ot a dinner served at the Airlines, followed by entertainment by Hes- perian and Mark Twain members. At the allcollege carnival the Mark Twains and Hesperians repeated their ring toss booth project of last year. The production this year, a joint project with their brothers, was See How They Run, a three- act farce which proved to be a Blue Ribbon winner. The Saint Pat's Tea was again held at Memorial Hall where Betty ,jordan was selected to reign as queen of the event. To bring the successful season to a conclusion, the Hesperians held a banquet and dance.

Sh-Boom was the title of the float entered in the Homecoming Parade. Chloe lane Kassel was the Benton-Clio candi- date for SAGAMORE Queen. The winter term brought more rush parties, the first of which was held in Memorial Hall, with Dr. A. C. Magill as guest speaker. The second rush party was held at the K-C Hall. A float was entered in the Christmas parade through the combined efforts of the Bentons and Clios. They were rewarded by the capture of third prize. Undoubtedly one of the most successful parties of the year was the Christmas party. Bentons handled the polio fund drive on campus, and later the organization with the Clios sponsored a candidate for the Ugly Man Contest. Spring term activities included the sixty-third anniversary banquet, a reunion with the alumni, and a formal Benton dance. During the spring term the members worked industriously on their biggest event of the year, the Benton-Clio Follies. Thus another year of fun and fellowship was add- ed to the many pleasant memories of the Benton Society. Benton Snciely Row 3: Ronald Brennan, David Hawkins, Russell Carter, I.

The Clio Society is well known for the pep and energy which the members display on campus. Along with this pep is a will- ingness to work and have lots of fun. Chloe became the song of the SAGAMORE campaign as vivacious Chloe lane Kassel took the limelight as the Benton-Clio candidate for queen. Three Clios were also given honors by being chosen attendants at the Varsity Dance. ' To add to their many honors, the B-Cs won third place in the Christmas parade with the float The Night Before Christmas. The Clios won the scholarship plaque by hav- ing the highest grade average of all the societies on campus. This being the first year the award was presented, the Clios felt justly proud in having their name placed first on the plaque. Bats, witches, and brooms helped carry out the theme of the morning rush party, as a breakfast fit for a king was served to rushees at the Idan Ha Hotel. Chop suey served by Chinese waiters in an atmosphere fragrant with incense made the noon- day dinner seem like a trip to Chinatown. The entertainment was strictly Chinese, too. The eve- ning under the sea, with mermaids, pirates, and sailors, left an impression long to be remembered. A side show at the all-college carnival helped draw in the crowds. The B-Cs had a bang-up show and proved it by winning second place in the money-making contest. The annual Clio Valentine Tea presented Miss Chloe lane Kassel as the Clio queen. A Valentine theme and decorations provided the atmosphere. The Benton-Clio Follies, as always, was a suc- cess. The long hours spent in working, advertising, and practicing paid off, and once again an all- original show was produced. Leaving the Clios with memories of the fun shared, the traditional Clio banquet brought a suc- cessful year to an end.

The main function of this organization is service. Service in many forms is provided to students and faculty. At the football games, in conjunction With the Athletic Committee, members provided food and drink to keep spectators physically fit for cheering the team. They entered politics by overseeing the elections held on campus. They gave Bell Tele- phone competition by compiling and publishing a student directory at the beginning of fall term. There are many other services performed by this group which students never know about. APO members bring forth the college spirit from the student body with the Homecoming Parade which they sponsor each year. In the spring they add a touch of humor and good will by sponsoring the Ugly Man contest. Though their main function is providing serv- ices and pleasure for the campus, the men now and then gather to have a shindig of their own. They have several annual affairs, such as the fall bar- becue and the spring banquet, with other gather- ings scattered throughout the year. The two main qualifications for membership in APO are previous membership in the Boy Scouts and a good strong back. Row 2: Bill Friday, Bill Roberts, Bob Vogelsang, Iohn Popp, lim Berry.

Moreover, members ot the two organizations are expected to maintain the standards which entitled them to be elected to membership in the first place. The members are chosen because they pos' sess the qualities mentioned above, and those stu- dents who appear to be tar outstanding are invited to become members. A mid-year election oi mem- bers is held in order that special students who may not be on the campus for very long will have an opportunity to enjoy membership. However, the main election of members is held in the late spring When a special tapping ceremony is held in the as- sembly at which newly elected members are sur- prised and recognized for their achievement. Wakapa has drawn up a constitution this year and for the first time has elected a president, Chloe lane Kassel. Membership in one of these organizations is the highest honor that a man or a woman may attain in this college. The members, therefore, must not only have high standards, but must maintain them and encourage others to reach them. Row 3: Ethel Daume, Mary Lou Ames, Agnes Neudeck, Mary Rixman.

Every day at l2:35 a short interdenomi- national service held at the Baptist Student Center. These services are open to any and all students who wish to attend and participate. To begin the school year the executive council met on September 4-5 tor the annual pre-school retreat to discuss plans for the coming year. The first main social event, this year a Moron Con- vention, was held during the iirst week ot school in an eitort to enlist new students. During Campus Evangelism Week, October 4- l7, Rev. Nelson Reagan from St. Louis held nightly evangelistic services at the First Baptist Church and conducted the devotionals at the Noonday Services each day. The annual State BSU Convention met here at Cape on November 12-14. Some 800 students from campuses all over -Missouri met here tor an inspir- ing weekend. Yuletide cheer was aroused at a Christmas party held shortly before the holiday. The party began with caroling in Smelterville and delivering food baskets to needy families and was climaxed by a Christmas devotional. lnterdenominational vesper services were held at Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Easter. One week in lanuary was set aside as Fresh- man Week, and the Freshman Council took charge of all BSU activities for that entire week. The weekend oi March 5-6, Dr. G. K.

The fundamental purpose of the Alpha Zeta Chapter of Gamma Delta is to bring the Lutheran students of our college closer to their church by fostering a feeling ot friendship and by keeping them in contact with the activities of the church. A square dance began the social activities of the group. The students at the party found time to get very well acquainted during the lively caper cutting. Refreshments were served to the group after the strenuous exercise, and everyone agreed that the party was certainly a success. The most important project carried on by the organization this year was the membership cam- paign in which every active member of Gamma Delta was to Contact other Lutheran students and to bring them to church and meetings with him. This campaign was clirnaxed by a communion ves- per service held at the church for members and guests. After the service the group was treated to a bowling party by the Trinity Senior Walther League. K During the spring term a variety of social activi- ties was engaged in by the group, which showed that lthe. Gamma Delts were very versatile. These activities included a skating party, a volley ball party, and a hike. The social events of the year were brought to a close by a picnic at which the members rerninisced and looked forward to the future.

The club is officially known on campus as the Newman Club. Early in November the group had a picnic and everyone enjoyed a wonderful time of fun and frolic. A very special Christmas party was held at the Knights of Columbus Hall to get the members into the spirit of the holidays. Every Monday in Memorial Hall during noon hour the rosary was recited, and the club mem- bers received Communion together on a specified Sunday each month.

The group continued to meet regularly each Sunday in the Educational building of Centenary Methodist Church. The programs for each Sunday evening were planned by the council and many of the members took leading parts. Various programs included forums, guest speakers, panel discussions, movies, and songiests. One outstanding occasion was a hayride with a Weiner roast and campfire service. Feeling a yen to do something constructive, the members redecorated their department, hung new drapes, and purchased a new worship center and some recreation and reference materials. As the Christmas season rolled around Wesley members caught the spirit and gave a party tor twenty three underprivileged children. Also in- cluded in this joyous season's activities were par- ticipation in a vesper service with the other student religious organizations on campus, and caroling with Centenary Methodist Youth Fellowship. As the school year drew to a close Wesley members journeyed to the Lake oi the Ozarks for the annual State Retreat. During this weekend they made many new friends, as this workshop is attend- ed by representatives irom each campus in Mis- souri. Everyone returned greatly inspired and felt that another year had been made complete. -112- Wesley Fuunllatinn Row 2: Delores Barton, lean Phillips, Martha Hubbard, Arlene Albersworth, Gay Scott, Eu- na Statler.

Miss Strahlmann The Home Management House is kept buzzing all year by two groups of girls, those who are en- rolled in the theory and practice course of managing the home, and those who live under regular dormi- tory conditions. The former group is employed throughout the term with daily duties of house care, meal planning, marketing, preparing and serving meals, and keeping record of such affairs. These duties are highlighted with special dinner parties that give a homelike environment. The girls in the dormitory group are kept busy throughout the year with birthday parties, bridal showers, gab ses- sions, informal parties, and of course, never ending studies. During Homecoming the girls decorated the house in hopes of winning first place in dorm deco- rations. A big event of the year was decorating for Christmas, climaxed with a Christmas Party and caroling.

As one phase of the initiations, the Freshies were not allowed to walk on carpets and were compelled to address an upper classman as Miss. In the evening a formal initia- tion by candlelight was held in the dining room after which refreshments were served. The Albertians won second place for their Homecoming house decorations.

The night before Christmas vacation, the girls went Christmas caroling after hours, and re- turned to enjoy hot chocolate and cookies.

Freshmen initiation, which provided a long hard day topped off by Hell Court in the evening, required the new girls to be servants of the upper classmen, to provide them with candy, to eat square meals, and not to speak to boys. At Homecoming time, Leming ran away with first prize for dorm decorations. Suckers, lemon drops, and peppermint sticks crowded the steps and lawn to carry out the theme of Lemin' Drops are Sweet on Cape. ----- Nancy Willis ---- Iulie Hartsfield ----- Mrs. Stepp Then came the Christmas season celebrated by Christmas carols, Christmas dinner by candle light, gifts for everyone given out by Santa, and a prevailing attitude of good will. A lot of fun in general was had by all in Lem- ing Hall. Their activities consisted of gab sessions, informal parties, pranks, listening in on the tele- phone extension, parlor calls, playing the piano and singing in the parlor, and numerous other activities which made the Lemin' Drops' home away from home very enjoyable. -118- Leminq Hall Row 3: Helen Frye, Barbara Okentuss, lacqueline McGee, Wilma Stilts, Shirley McCarVer, Marcia Pollock, Rhea Matthews, Libby Hartsfield, loan Weiland, Patricia Gutzler, Caro- line Hutton, Shirley lllers, Liliana Olivieri, lackie Calahan, Nidia Isabel Barragan, Luz del Carmen Pinzon, Mary Ann Ramey.

It has to be large, for this year it contains a record two hundred five Indians of Cape State. With that many snoring away at night, how could it help being the loudest? With this many men in the dorm there is no way to count all the little get-togethers and parties that sprang up spontaneously, but reports indicate they were neither few or far between. In the way of organized entertainment, Myers men enjoyed a dance and a patio party spring term. -120- --- Grady Evans ----- Bob Bradley -- Mrs. Stubblefield The men won third place in the annual Home- coming decorations with the theme Indians Cook Bearcats. To improve the general background, the men of Myers Hall took up a collection this year and bought atelevision set for the lobby. Of course, besides the educational programs available, they can also get a little cheap entertainment to while away those extra hours. The Chief of this tribe of Indians is Mrs. I. B. Stubblefield to whom everybody refers as Aunt Pan. As the dorm is the home away from home, Aunt Fan is the mother away from mother. lVlyHrs Hall Row 3: Barry Crosby, Roqer Sherman, Robert Rash, Babqen Hovhanisian, lirn Allen.

Cheney Hall, situated behind the Home Econom- ics building, holds seventeen years of memories for the alumni of this school. At Cape State, as at other schools, the dormitory holds a position high in the regard of its alumni and its present tenants. For it is usually in the dorms that ideas for the various activilies are born. Also many die here. lt has been said that hall the knowledge gained at college comes from those scholarly discussions that last until the wee hours of the morning. Although there are innumerable unorganized get-togethers and social functions, there are also the organized ones. Each year Cheney Hall enters into competition at Homecoming time by decorating the c----sv---- Mrs. Eaton dorm. Also, and most important as far as the Cheneyites are concerned, the annual dance is given in the spring for the tenants and their dates. Oi course, all the boys have their sweethearts, but they also have one in common who can be called the Sweetheart ot Cheney Hall. That is, oi course, Ma Eaton, the housemother, who acts as mother, policeman, and the good Samaritan for the boys. We feel sure that Cheney Hall home for all the men that live there, will always remain a cher- ished memory to those who have made it a Vital part ot their college lite. -124- llheney Hall Bow 2: Allan Poaqe, Howard Byrd, Iohn McCoy, Don Heeb, Ed Viehmann, Tom Croy, Frank Bean, Wayne Walker, lere Tenkhoif, Bert Wright, Lawrence Marler.

Although the conference crown eluded them on the basis of a loss at Kirksville, this year's Braves can look back on a record of seven wins and two losses, the other defeat coming at the hands of undefeated Delta State, one of the top small college teams in the nation. Coach Knox is used to success, however. He himself, was an lndian for four years at spaced intervals both before and after World War ll. He co-captained the Braves from 1940-42 and after a four year stint in the Naval Air Corps, he returned to rate AILMIAA on the Cape Conference Champions in 1946. His pre-Cape coaching days were spent at Sikeston High School, where the exploits of his fabulous Bulldogs are still a favorite topic of conversation. During his stay there, Sikeston was undefeated in 39 games. That success has evidently trans- planted itselt to Cape State where Coach Knox has guided the Indians to ever-improving seasons with next year holding prom- ise as perhaps the best one yet.

Young has completed his first season at Southeast State, and it took him only that length of time to prove his Worth to the Cape Athletic squads.

He was an All-State High School selection in Illinois during his senior year and following that he took part in four years oi football and three years of track at the University of Arkansas. He served in the U.S. Air Force as a Second Lieutenant, being discharged in December, 1953.

The big thrill oi the night was provided by Don Baker, who took a pitch- out on his own 25 yard line and shot down the side- lines on a brilliant 75 yard jaunt to paydirt. -130- Q fi Iim Whittenborn Gene Gladstone Iarnie Estes Carrol Eggemeyer I-Ierb Wickham Howard Reed Al Ritchie Tom Brennecke Don I-Ieeb Bob Fischer CAPE STATE-30 WARRENSBUBG--O The Indians completed a three-game home stand by waltzing to their second straight MIAA win, a 30 to O trouncing of the Warrensburg Mules. The Braves once again showed all-around offensive power and an equally-stout defense, as the outmanned Mules could never kick up a major threat. Ken Hargens spearheaded the Cape attack, scoring twice, once on a 55 yard run, and averaging 16 yards per carry. CAPE STATE-7 KIRKSVILLE--Zl Cape State's record of five straight victories came to a sudden halt and the MIA A-championship ambi- tions received a rude jolt at Kirksville, Where the vet- eran Bulldogs pounded out a 21 to 7 win. Cape's only TD was set up on a 39 yard pass play from Larry Yeargain to Tom Brennecke, which carried to the CAPE STATE-27 SPRINGFIELD-O Springfie1d's Homecoming Celebration, usually a happy affair, had to contend with Coach Kenny Knox's Braves, embittered over the Kirksville loss the week before and the Cape Staters romped all over the field and the Bears, 27 to 0. Ken Hargens, Larry Yeargain, Don Spicer, and Torn Brennecke were on the ball- toting end of Cape's scoring plays. CAPE STATE-27 MARYVILLE-6 Cape State had to settle for second place in the final conference standings, but the Indians made corn- pletely sure of that position by smashing out a 27 to 6 triumph over the Maryville Bearcats in the MIAA finale which also served as the Cape Homecoming game. A crowd of 3500 saw the Indians rebound after one-yard line from where Yeargain sneaked across. That came late in the fourth quarter after the Bulldogs an early Maryville score and ride on to their seventh had already showed their fangs on three occasions. victory. CAPE STATE--6 DELTA STATE-20 The Indians had nothing of which to be ashamed in their season-closing 20 to 6 loss to the powerful Delta State Teachers. Rated as one of the top small- college aggregations in the nation, Delta wasted no time in showing the Braves just how that rating was acquired. Cape's only score came on a 21 yard pass play from Larry Yeargain to Iohn Schneider deep in the end ZOI'le. -131- Fnnthall SEASONS RESULTS Cape State 21 Arkansas State Teachers 6 Cape State 7 Southern Illinois University 6 Cape State 12 Memphis Navy O Cape State 33 Rolla School of Mines 7 Cape State 30 Warrensburg State U Cape State 7 Kirksville S-tate 21 Cape State 27 Springfield State U Cape State 27 Maryville State 6 Cape State 6 Delta State Teachers 20 FINAL MIAA CONFERENCE 1954 FOOTBALL STANDINGS Team Won Lost Tied Kirksville 5 O O Cape Girardeau 4 I 0 Rolla 3 2 0 Maryville I 4 U Warrensburg 1 4 O Springfield l 4 0 SEASON'S SUMMARY Cape State finished the 1954 football season with cz record of seven Wins and two losses against top small col- lege opposition. It was the school's top pigskin season since 1946, when the Indians last copped the conference crown. The prowess of this year's team Was probably best demonstrated by the fact that four Indians were placed on the All-MIAA first team. Kenny I-Iargens, halfback, Larry Yeargain, quarterback, Ken Dement, tackle, and lohn Schnei- der, end, were the first team choices, and Marvin Rosen- garten and lim Lohr, both linemen, rated second team berths. Dement, Cape's outstanding senior tackle, was voted a spot on the Associated Press's Little All-American third team and also Won mention on other All-American squads. Dement and Hargens were selected as co-captains for the year. Four members of the squad, Herb Wickham, Dement, Hargens, and Rosengarten, were seniors and completed their eligibility with the final game. All four were four year let- termen. Dement was selected by his teammates as the most valuable lineman and Hargens as the most valuable back. Tom Brennecke, freshman sensation, was named the most improved player on the squad. -132- Basl-iethall 19511-1955 Coach Ralph Pink has concluded his third season as head basketball coach at Cape State and once again he guided the Braves to a most successful season, in tact their most successful year since 1943 when they Won the MIAA title and the NAIB Championship. The season's record was fifteen wins and six losses, and included was the champ- ionship ot the Hammond, Louisiana, Invitational Tourna- ment and second place in the MIAA. Coach Pink is a graduate oi Northeast Missouri State College at Kirksville, the school that finished ahead of the Indians in the conference race this season. He played basketball there and also with the championship service team of the U.S. Coast Guard. He obtained his Master's Degree from the University oi Missouri in 1949 and began Work on his doctorate in the field of education at Indiana University and the University ol Missouri. In his first two years as head coach here, Coach Pink guided the Braves to third place in the conference standings. As they rose to second this season, that leaves only the top spot as an ambition for next year.

Coach Pink's charges rornped to an easy 68 to 37 win with Paul Copeland's 14 points ranking as high. CAPE-58 CONCORDIA SEMINARY-62 The Indians' invasion of the Big City didn't pay off very well, and they absorbed their iirst loss of the season at the hands of Concordia Seminary of St. Louis, 62 to 58, in an overtime period. The Braves had built up a substantial lead but saw it fade in the second half as the Preachers began to click. Copeland again paced Cape, with 18 points. CAPE-65 PORT LEONARD WOOD-67 Once again the Indians saw a substantial lead fade as the classy Ft. Wood Soldiers came from behind in the final seconds to hand Cape a 67 to 65 loss. Both teams hit brilliantly, but the I-lilltoppers, paced by Win Wilfong, ex-Puxico and Missouri U. ace, had too much power. Ray Rippelrneyer came to the fore with 14 points for Cape. CAPE-71 MIDWESTERN UNIVERSITY-64 Coach Pink's lads picked up their second win of the season from visiting Midwestern University of Wichita Falls, Texas, by a 71 to 64 count. It was no easy decision, for the Redrnen had to Work around Midwestern's 6-7 postman, O'Neal Weaver, who collected 32 points. Rippelrneyer hit 16 for the Braves. CAPE-69 SI-IURTLEFF COLLEGE-73 The Indians ran into a barrage of free throws in their fracas With Shurtleff College at Wood River, lllinois, and as a result dropped a 73 to 69 decision. Shurtleff sank 33 free tosses, I4 more than Cape. Bill Graham carted off high scoring honors with 24. CAPE -56 MISSISSIPPI SOUTHERN-67 En route to the Hammond Tournament, the Braves stopped off for a visit with the Mississippi Southern five of Hattiesburg, Mississippi, and left with the sting of 67 to 56 defeat accompanying them. Cape had trouble connecting from outcourt and trailed most of the Way. Rippelmeyers 13 points were high. -l34- Bill Robinson Gary Gilbert Bay Bippelmeyer Elmer Balzer CAPE-75 EAST TENNESSEE STATE-61 Success iinally came and in abundance as the Braves handed Coach a very nice Christmas present, the championship of the Hammond, Louisiana, lnvitational Tourna- ment. The favored East Tennessee State team was the Indians' iirst opponent and they fell before a blistering attack, 75 to 61. Dick Eichhorst sank 19 points for the Winners and Bill Graham and Bill Sims hit 15 and 14 respectively. ln the tinals the Indians went CAPE-63 SOUTHEAST LOUISIANA-19 up against Southeast Louisiana State, the host team, which had run wild in its open- ing game with Missouri Valley College. Cape rose to the occasion and with Sims and Eichhorst controlling the backboards and Bippelmeyer dropping 22 points through the nets, they walked oft with the tourney crown, 63 to 52. The fine showing made by the Braves was to start them on a Winning streak which eventually reached 10 straight games. Bill Graham Bill Sims Rich Eichhorst Paul Gopelcmcl i 'I -135- Gene Munger Bill George CAPE-66 SPRINGFIELD-59 Cape launched the conference campaign in Spring- field after the Christmas layoff, and the Braves over- came an old jinx and the Bears, 66 to 59. It was Cape's first MIAA road victory over a major contender in several years. Rippelmeyer sank 22 points once again to lead the scorers. CAPE-64 WARBENSBURG-58 Encouraged by their success at Springfield, the Indians did a repeat job at Warrensburg as they sank the Mules 64 to 58 and took over first place in the conference along with Kirksville. Dick Eichhorst tal- lied 22 points for the Hedmen as they headed for home after five consecutive road games. CAPE-72 ROLLA-56 The Indians' win streak jumped to five in their first 1955 apperance at home and Rolla's Miners were the unhappy victims, 72 to 56. After a close first half, the Braves pulled away and the outcome was never again in doubt. Rippelmeyer paced the Cape attack with 21 points. CAPE-81 KIRKSVILLE--68 There began to be a strong whiff of laurel in the air as the Indians toppled Kirksville 81 to 68 at Houck Field House and took over undisputed possession of first place in the MIAA. The lead changed hands nearly as often as the ball in the first half, but a sudden Cape spurt after the second 20 minutes got underway carried them out of striking distance. Etch- horst's 17 points topped the attack. Fred Saalfeld Bob Ballenger CAPE-77 MEMPHIS NAVY-63 Cape took time out from conference chores for a-trip to Memphis and a tilt with the Navymen from that city, and in so doing stretched an already fat win- ing streak to seven. The Sailors couldn't quite match the pace of the red-hot Braves and soon faded from contention. Rippelmeyer and Eichhorst tied for top scoring honors with l8 apiece. CAPE-63 WARRENSBUBG-40 Cape returned to MIAA duties with a vengeance in a home game with Warrensburg, and the Mules absorbed a 63 to 40 spanking. The win left the Braves with an unbeaten mark for the first half of the con- ference season. Bill Sims topped the Redmen with 20 points. CAPE-56 SPRINGFIELD-49 Before the season's largest Houck Field House crowd, the Indians embarrassed the Springfield Bears 56 to 49 in a tightly contested game. The defeat nearly eliminated the Bruins from further conference conten- tion and set up a two team race between Cape and Kirksville. Rippelmeyer hit l7 points to top the Indians. CAPE-74 MEMPHIS NAVY-48 Cape State's second conquest of Memphis Navy was a rather listless affair, with Coach Pink using his substitutions most of the game. The Braves jumped to a 9-O lead and continued to increase it. Rippel- meyer paced the Braves with l4 points although he played only IU minutes of the game. -136- CAPE-49 MARYVILLE--52 Disaster struck at Maryville as the Indians rode in on their nine-game Winning streak and in first place in the MIAA and left with their aspirations in shambles as a result of a 52 to 49 setback by the lowly Bear- cats. Cape led most ot the Way, but four tree tosses in the final minute by Lee Creamer turned the tables. Eichhorst's I3 points were high for the Braves. CAPE-72 KIRKSVILLE-8 1 Cape sank to second place in the MIAA on the second leg of their road trip at Kirksville where the ambitious Bulldogs pulled out an 81 to 72 Win and took over sole possession of the top spot. Rippel- meyer's 20 points the first halt kept the Braves in contention, but he was stopped cold in the second half and the Bulldogs pulled away. CAPE490 BOLLA-87 The lndians' faint hopes for a share of the MIAA crown were kept alive at Rolla Where they eked out a 90 to 87 win over a Miner team that was blisteringly hot. Rolla led throughout the first half, but was over- hauled in the second 20 minutes and the lead see- sawed back and forth until the final seconds. CAPE-85 AUSTIN COLLEGE-67 The Indians, still bitter over their disastrous trip, singed the Austin College Kangaroos 85 to 67 in the r return to the home court. At one time during the con- test Cape held a 30 point lead, and the outcome was never in doubt. Bippelmeyer led Cape with 20 points. CAPE-87 MABYVILLE-50 Cape had to settle for second place in the con- ference but the Braves eased their Wounds at the ex- pense of their tormentors, the Maryville Bearcats, in the season finale, 87 to 50. The Indians grabbed an early lead and then poured on the coal, never relinqu- ishing the pace. Rippelmeyer led the attack with 22 points and Bud Balzer chipped in 21.
