MAX FIFE ★ ENSIGN CLINTON FORD ★ LT. EVERETT W. GRIFFITH ★ PFC. ELBERT HAYS ★ PFC. BRYAN HOERRMANN ★ PFC. FRED J. KOB ★ SGT. DELBERT WADDILL « 9 The unsung heroes and heroines of Co-edville —the administrators. The men and the women who see to it that students are thoroughly orientated and know that the program should make them a well rounded student— and then see to it that they are in every club and organ- ization on the campus—these are our administrators. We wouldn't be without hem, even when they assign an entire book for an evening's reading. Those guys and gals who sign the Trial Program Card and thereby get us out of trouble once every three months—into another kind deserve a lot of credit, too. The smart ones, though, are those who preach freedom of thought and then skill- fully convert all to their way of thinking. Yes, we'll admit that being on the administering end of 'Co-edville isn't easy. So we proudly present this pictorial review of the efforts of the faculty, heads of divisions, Board of Regents, deans, the President, (who's responsible, by the way, for our progress being what it is) and all others v ho made up the administrative force of our college. • • i illustration Ten, Tiro, and Iviir - - - (offer Introducing Our Dr. Ryle's interest in and loyalty to the Northeast Missouri State Teachers college began long ago when he first enrolled as a student here Stepping from the role of student to faculty member, and from there to president in 1937, he has contrib- uted his untiring efforts to maintain the high standards of the institution. Upholding the traditions handed down to him by his predecessors, our president has done much to maintain the initial concepts which were incorporated into this college at its founding. An attractive campus, dotted by beautiful and useful build- ings, sprinkled liberally with earnest, hard-working, clear-think ing students, working with a cooperative, understanding, and well-educated faculty to secure the maximum in teacher training for the state of Missouri has been one of the chief objectives of this seventh president. Studont counseling in the office Working at home President Dr. Walter Harrington Ryle President, 1937— The college White House The college First Lady and Walter H. Jr. Herbert Sears Charles Shelton E. E. Swain Roland Zeigel BOARD OF REGENTS The Board of Regents is the highest administrative unit of the Teachers College. It is composed of six members from various parts of the district, and the Missouri State Superintend- ent of schools. Every other administrator receives his power through authority of the board. Rejection or approval of ideas and policies of the College are handled by these men at their quarterly meetings. They employ teachers, receive bids on work on the campus and buildings, and sign contracts. The members of the board are: W. A. Cable, Hannibal; Roy Quinn, Moberly; Roy Scantlin, Jefferson City; Herbert Sears, La Plata; Charles Shelton, Macon; E. E. Swain, Kirksville; and Roland Zeigel, Kirksville. € 14 DEAN OF WOMEN For the past twenty-one years Mrs. S. H. Ellison has served as dean of women of the Teachers College. During these twenty- one years she has aided countless students in social and personal problems. As dean of women she is the charming hostess at all Teachers College functions, being director of the social calendar. Other duties include directing the extensive fresh- man orientation program, supervising the housing facilities for students, inspecting rooming houses, and enforcing regulations. She is also sponsor of the Pan-Hellenic Council. The work of the Dean of Women is correlated with other activities of the Division of Personnel Service. DEAN OF FACULTY One of the main balance wheels in our school machine is Dr. L. A. Eubank. Dean Eubank is the man who arranges for as- sembly speakers, keeps track of the stu- dents permanent records, helps arrange courses for coming quarters, answers the questions concerning the granting of cred- its, gives information to employers about students, and is head of the Division of Education. « 15 HEADS OF DIVISIONS Dr. C. H. Allen is head of the Division of Personnel Service. This is the department of the college which aids the students in making, social, educational, and vocation- al adjustments. Through the Bureau of Guidance the division deals with these personal problems and relationships of the students. Prof. J. T. Angus heads the division of Extension Service. This division deals with public relations. It includes the Bureau of Field Service, Bureau of Correspondence and Extension Teaching, Bureau of Place- ments, and the Bureau of Alumni Service. Prof. Bailey Wright is head of the Divi- sion of Business Service of the Teachers College. This division is responsible for administering funds of the college. It sees to the maintenance of the college, handles all disbursements of the school, and ad ministers the Student Memorial Loan Fund. « 16 F ACUITY First Row: Lula M.

Cooperation within the council of members of both parties gave us open houses each week, dances each quarter, school shows, class teas, an $850.00 carnival, a better Echo, and some new equipment for student use. (P.S.— V e'll gladly turn in our laurels for a little rest). Steadily increasing enrollments during the year necessitat- ed an increasing amount of student government, a larger de- mand for student planned, directed, and controlled activities. The council worked to meet these needs and received good support from all campus organizations. We re proud of the fact that a year passed v ithout a stuffed ballot box, or a queen fight, but we point with pride to the formation of a pep squad called K-Ettes, our swell dances, and new sponsor—Dr. C. H. Allen. We're equally sorry that: we had to lose J. W. Heyd as sponsor and that there was a shortage of time and finance to do more for the student body. John C. Fox Dr. C. H.

JA PARRISII As the proving grounds for prospective teachers, this integral part of our college system of teacher training plays an important role on the campus. All Kirksville junior high school students are enrolled in this practice teaching center for high school majors. Here the student- teacher receives the benefit of careful training under the super- vision of Prof. Felix Rothschild, director of this school. Competent full time instructors in this institution give much of their time to helping the practice teachers of the college become grounded in the fundamentals of good school management. This is one of the two large demonstration schools main- tained by the college for the training of teachers. € 22 Front Row: Martin, Gardner, Straight, Thompson. Vedner Back Row: Dr ' odder, Kramer Hayes Brown. Atha GREENWOOD After making daily raids on the intellects of children from grades one to six in the Greenwood Demonstration School for as much as one quarter's work, sixty-hour students and elementary majors are able to sift the theories of pupil training and school management, happily watch them sift away in the cold blast of realism and purpose never again to depart from that age-old tradition spare the red and spoil the child. Impractical air castles are readily traded for the funda- mental sod huts of practicality, hard work, and long hours. Dr. Almon Veddcr is the new director of this arm of the Teachers College training department. « 23 VETERAN’S BUREAU Standing: Baker Atlebury, William Minor Messrs.

School'll scon be over now and the seniors carry beneath their dignity an ill-concealed desire to return, the juniors an envious glance at the caps and gowns, the sophs the hopeful of one who's been here for twenty-four months, and the frosh, well, they appear quite stunned by all they've seen, heard, done ana been exposed to this first year. Should we eavesdrop a little: What do you do with students like that? Oh, just assign another book to read, they'll get the benefit of at least a couple chapters—maybe. Arc you sure you've been taught to take scholarly notes? Don't beg me, or I'll tell the truth. Class, it doesn't seem possible that you can have gone through three years of college and accomplished so little. Memorize the next hundred lines for tomorrow—and be sure to have that term paper done Monday. That's the bell, you may go when ready. (What makes them linger so?) Have a good vacation and we'll be looking for you next fall. You can make up that incomplete then.'' «26 • • SENIORS Left to Right: James Looney, vice- president: Carolyn Magruder. president, L. A.

Service gestures for the year were the weekly mailing of the Index, taking charge of information about campus organizations for the college bulletin, and contributing to the national organ- ization of the idea of a contest for the writing of an Alpha Phi Sigma song. We played too—a wiener roast at Brashear park . . . pre- initiation parties at the beginning of each quarter ... a mock operation stunt at the carnival . . . and, yes, to be sure our spring banquet highlight of the year.

Spirit are back on the campus. In the spring of 1943, Bryan Hoerrmann Jr., secretary- treasurer told the bank to guard the club funds and the sponsor to keep the records, and the men all bade farewell till after the duration. We will miss Junior and several older members who made the supreme sacrifice in a war to end wars. Other members write from the South Pacific that they hope to get back where they left off. The Club has a two-fold purpose: to promote social and edu- cational programs. Regular meetings are held bi monthly with eats , when persons in specialized fields of agriculture are invited as speakers. Out door picnics, Barnwarmin's and Intra mural tourna ments arc tops with the agriculture boys. Helping with farm banquets, county fairs, running off District contests for high school agriculture students and Future Farmers of America chap ters have long been on the regular calendar of the organization.

The Christian Church is proud of the group of students enrolled in its College Class. Faithful attendance at Sunday services and loyalty to the choir contribute much to the life of the church. Evening meetings led by in- spirational speakers are the means of acquainting students with towns- people and members of the church. The Fellowship aims to train these young people to take their proper place in home, church, and commun- ity life. 68 Pi Orru ' fa Pi O Literature PI OMEGA PI Alpha Chapter of Pi Omega Pi swung into the year with a small mem- bership.

In January 1946 the veterans organized their club, elected their officers, wrote up their constitution and started their activities. The purpose of the organization is to promote better under- standing between the returned men and their school. Faculty members who are veterans from World War I are members of the club in advisory positions. One of the early activities of the club was the making of a survey of the college neighborhood in an effort to find suitable homes for the veterans and their families. 77 INDEX I) a certain few people came through 1945 with more stream- lined minds and also figures, it may be because they were on the Index staff. Saying the right thing in fifty words or writing a headline that says what it should in 18 units makes for more concise wording, and those weekly issues and Carnival Queen Extras weren't done by gremlins. An about the figures! We didn't gain weight keeping the sidewalks warm between the newswriting room and the Graphic office or while dashing around after those faculty members from v hom we were to get stories. But we did get the stories, we did write the leads, we did make the headlines, and we even scooped the town paper occasionally. Persons working on the paper included Margaret Arm- strong, Martin Cannady, John R. Dickerson, Eldon Drennan, Leo- ta Harrison, Janet Harvey, Johnny Jones, Mary Margaret O'Con- nor, Nancy Roy, Merrill Salisbury, Nelda White, Feme Woods, Dan Montgomery, Harry Noland, Michael Spanus, Kenneth L. Gardner, Hubert Harnett, Elizabeth Rudasill. « 78 Tl IF ECHO If at first they don't have their pic- tures taken, make another announce- ment. It worked and cooperation was splendid. So was that Carnival from which the Student Council donated money to make the Echo possible. The four staff members, appointed by the Echo board, were Leota Har- rison, editor-in-chief; Loris Johnson, business manager; Feme Woods, as- sistant editor; and Mary Lierly, assist- ant business manager. For the first time a class was offered in Echo pub lication and the members were John Goeke, Martha Lou Holbert, Mary I’ranees Ruhwedel, Martha Jones, and the photographers James Shuey, John Fox, George Crutchfield, and Gordon Collett. So with the combined efforts of Miss Agnes Slemons—our adviser, the pho- tographers, the ad men and the class we give you your 1946 Echo.

Heyl Oh well, that's one on us he didn't call—might not be so bad after all. Intramurals start tonight—you goin ? See ya at 7:30. The Vets play the Hot Shots. Can't miss that. Basketball's a better game than football any day. Aw—wher'd you get that idea? You crazy? Where you headed after the game? Room for two more? Let's get home early tonight, these close games wear me out. Are ya makin' any bets on who wins the M.I.A.A. title this time? The Bulldogs ought to give them a run for their money next fall. We're only graduating one varsity man. See ya tomorrow, gotta chase off for a K-Club meeting. « 80 ’«vy 194C TIIH FOOTBALL STORY In 1945 football was again inaugur ated in the Teachers College after a lapse of three years. Vincent Gering- er was given the job of leading the grid aspirants through a tough sched- ule and Eldon Sterne served as assist- ant coach. Forty men answered the call to moleskins, but practically all were subject to military call and when the season began, the squad had shrunk to twenty-two men. In the first game of the season, the Bulldogs held the favorite Missouri B” team to a 0 to 0 tie. The Bulldogs then moved on to St. Louis to engage the Billikens, Sept. 28. The Bills, with 66 substitutes to call upon, shellacked the Dogs by a score of 96 to 6. Parsons College, Fairfield, Iowa, came down to test the Bulldogs in the next game and were swamped 27 to 0. Coach Geringer's charges then went to Western Kentucky and were beaten by a superior Murray squad by a score of 51 to 7. In the next game the Bulldogs jour- neyed to Holla and after scoring 6 points in the first quarter, the Bulldogs were shoved everywhere except over the goal line and emerged a 6 to 0 winner. The Dogs took a long trip to Eastern Kentucky and after holding on even terms for the first quarter, the Bulldogs succumbed 54 to 7 to end the season. James Daugherty coached the Bull- dogs in the last two games after Coach Geringer accepted a position with the University of Kansas.

Valentine, Bailey Wright ATHLETIC COMMITTEE Another group of unsung, unnoticed workers—the five mem- bers of the Athletic Committee. These men are charged with the responsibility of planning and executing the college's athletic program from start to finish. These men schedule all games, direct all publicity for the teams, delegate authority to the coaches, and have charge of paying all bills. Some of the men made trips with the Bulldogs to see the St. Louis and Kentucky football games. The Home- coming responsibilities are being taken care of for next year under the direction of this committee and other interested groups. The college athletic program is a tribute to the efforts of this group of five men who untiringly promote and plan, so that Kirksville Bulldogs may play. Basketball coaches: Delbert Maddox and lames Daugherty 1'HE BASKETBALL STORY Basketball returned to the Teachers College after a lapse of three years. With play in the M.I.A.A. conference starting again, the Bulldogs put a fighting quintet on the floor. Whalen and Bryan, two returning lettermen, formed the nucleus of the team, and for the most part, the remainder of the squad were freshmen. The athletic future of the Teachers College looks bright, as most of the boys from this year's promising team will return for next season. Coaches Jim Daugherty and Delbert Maddox deserve a lot of credit for their splendid work with the boys this year. As an added attraction to the season, five intra-mural bas- ketball teams put up a hot race for the intra-mural championship. The teams were: the veterans, Sig-Tau fraternity, Phi-Sig frater- nity, the Little Theater team, and the Hot Shots.

The oh's and ah's of the first post-war holiday dance that had enough live men to go around are pictured some- where in the succeeding pages along with the ten fellows and girls who made this year's edition of the owl book — (Who's Who).

Wore my first bow tie since 1 joined the army—thought I'd nev- er get the dam thing tied! Then I picked up Anne—she's my latest, strictly hubba-hubba — and we went over to the Event. Kirk Auditorium—big Christmas tree, soft red lights (mmm!) lots of green stuff, silver bells—the floor _ was packed and the band really carved] We danced till we were glad to sit one out, and then we danced some more. Lots of kids you would- n't know, but some of our old gang is still here. DANCE At intermission everyone left to quench their thoist—coffee at Do nut land, cokes at the Campus Club, and— Well, anyway, after intermission we whizzed back. I hadn't been to a dance since I got my dis- charge, so maybe that's why I had so much fun. But everyone else did, too. You should have heard the protesting groans when the band dreamed out Star Dust for the last dance. We started home, and then changed our minds, and went out and took over Bill's for awhile. And then we finally DID go home, and—uh—well, it sure was a swell dancel Write, chum and when your ol' ruptured duck straggles in, see you back in K.S.T.C., too—we'll take in next year's dance together, huh? So long, BUD WHO’S WHO Who's Who in American Universities and Colleges this year includes ten students (rom Northeast Missouri State Teach- ers College. These students have been chosen from 569 colleges and universities because of their character, scholarship, leader- ship in extra-curricular activities and their possibility of future usefulness to business and society. These students are (1) Janet Harvey, (2) Marian Lee Ander son, (3) Carolyn Magruder, (4) Walter Beard, (5) Lois Bentley, (6) Mary Eiffert, (7) Betty Drakes, (8) John Fox, (9) Bernece Schott, (10) Doris Jean Reid. FOREIGN STUDENTS Grace, wit, subtle humor, and viva cious charm have been on the campus in added measure this year because o; the presence of Senoritas Noe my Gomez and Nidia Saenz. These two young ladies from Costa Rica flew to this country in early September from San Jose, their capital city, to New Orleans, Louisiana, and arrived at our campus via train and bus from there. Nidia and Noemy have progressed rapidly from milk-fed girls (because they could say nothing more in Eng- lish) to typical, fun-loving, adventurous co-eds. Nidia, a social science major, plans to return to her native country as a social worker upon the completion of her degree. Noemy expects to make the customary use of her home eco- nomics training when she leaves Mis- souri. Miss Ronnaug Halstensen, having completed her trip to this country by ship from Molde, Norway, arrived in New York City far enough in advance of the winter enrollment date to spend one dazzling week in that city of delights. Ronnaug is majoring in elementary education and spends a great deal of her time studying the American educational system. A special report she is preparing v ill be studied by educational leaders in her land. Her secondary interest is music. All three of these young women were directed to this college by the National Institute of Education. Kirksville is one of the approved schools for foreign students studying in America.
