A marvellous, intri- cate pattern it Was—its gorgeous colors and perfect harmony constraining us to stand in silent awe and admiration. “Each thread belongs explained its maker, pleased with our apparent interest and appreciation. The words burned deep. A student stood before an ever widening door. His college days were over. His thoughts wove a beautiful fantasy from the memories of yesterday— of friendships of deep and lasting value, of teachers whose influence was infinite, and class joys and sorrows which meant more than he could ever fully know. A wave of happiness swept over him. His heart sang, his pulse beat faster, his eyes flashed as the vision became clear. i have been a part of a great plan,” he cried, and with a step toward the Open Door— Please Cod I shall ever belongI”—-H. M. BLUE md GOLD 1923 A N artist was sitting in his studio, his eyes fixed in steadfast gaze upon a Vy vision which had risen before him. It was a form of rare beauty—a £ form more beautiful than his eyes had ever beheld before—a concep- tion so wonderful in its loveliness as to transport his whole being. His frame thrilled with ecstasy as he continued to gaze upon it, and there came to him an overwhelming desire to grasp that form and make it live forever. He seized a lump of clay, and while his fingers were yet trembling with the frenzy of his inspiration, he began to mold. He pressed in here and he pressed out there. He gave a firm touch here, a tender touch there. Day after day he molded on. When the clay hardened he moistened it and molded again. And by and by there grew up from his hands a form so beautiful that the world heard the fame of it, and came and looked upon him and upon the work of his hands, and said to him. 'Well done After a day of toii and worry a teacher once sat alone at twilight, her eyes fixed in steadfast gaze upon a vision that had risen before her. It was the most beautiful, the rarest, the most charming form that had ever blessed her eyes. As she looked she recognized the face of ’Him who is the fairest among ten thousand, and altogether lovely.' Her whole being was filled with the blessed vision. Her heart yearned toward Him. She threw herself at His feet and gave herself, heart and soul and mind, to Him. And when she rose there came into her heart an irresistible desire to mold some life like unto Him. And she took into her hands a lump of living clay—a little child—and trembling with the frenzy of the vision she hegan to mold. Day after day she taught and trained the little mind and the little heart, pressing in here, and pressing out there; firmly here, ten- derly there. When the chi'd began to grow bard, her love and sympathy softened him and she molded on. And bv and by there grew up from her hands a strong, symmetrical, manly man. The world heard not of what she had done, and came not; but the fame of her workmanship reached the court of heaven, and one day the Lord came down and looked upon her and upon the work of her hands, and He said to her, ’Weil done.' —Jesse Davis. 3i?

Helen Macaulay—President Esther Harman—Vice President Gladys WarehaM—Secretary Eva Patterson—Treasurer MAUDE Murphy—Women’s League Council Maude Murphy—Senior Editor, Blue and Gold MARY Jackson—Antelope Reporter The Senior Class of 1923 has been the most renowned and most famous class of our Alma Mater. We have been a beneficial example of high ideals and perseverance to our sister classes, and we hope to bequeath to them the same worthy standards which we have maintained. However sagacious we are, the Seniors wish to express their sincere gratitude to the Sophomore Class for a great kindness. At Christmas time the Sophomores gave us a very handsome and charming man for a present. The Senior Mascot has been of great service to us, because by his influence and encouragement, five more men have joined our class since Christmas. This is indeed very gratifying to a class of girls. Many of our friends think we are so dignified and studious that we have no time for fun. But we have had good times this year. One chilly evening in October we could find no suitable place for a picnic except in the Gibbon park. All of us remember how appetizing things tasted that night, and best of all, we remember cur ride home. In November we had a very enjoyable party at Bessie Watkin s home. It was here that Mr. Sutton reaPy forgot that he was a sedate professor. Also, in the last of November, Mrs. Hyatt entertained the Seniors in honor of Miss Williams who was graduated the first quarter. The evening was rpent in pleasant reminiscences and many humorous incidents of the past were recalled. We are proud of the fact that we have been friendly to our fellow class- mates and courteous to our instructors. The Seniors have never intentionally created any enemies, but we feel that the Juniors, especially, are very jealous of us. We advise them to follow our example. The Seniors also admonish the Freshmen not to become weary of climbing the ladder to the summit, because we will be up there beckoning them to come. When the twilight ’round us fa'ls. As we roam o’er Life’s Great Ways, Hearts will speak in gratitude Of our good old College days. Many were the friendships made Helping us our lives to mold As a treasure growing dearer. We will love our Blue and Gold. 34 Our Sponsor. H. 0. SUTTON. Marv Jackson, Kearney Y. W. C. A, Aspasia n. Theatre Arts League. The doors of wisdom are never shul. Everett C.

Extracts From a 1923 Senior's Diary. April 26 1943.—The spring fever got me today and I skipped the office and started for a ride in the country. Stopped to have my batteries charged. These electric cars may be all right, but I wish we were back in the old days when we had dependable gasoline motors. Just then Kenneth Newcomb drove up and we had quite a discussion over the revision of the income tax. He is as con- servative as ever, but politicians have to be, especially before the primaries. He is running for governor. He said he had just heard from Harry Kanzelmeyer, who has been in the Phillipines. He is returning to the States for his health and incidently to spend some of his money. I understand he made good in the hemp market last year. He is still an eligible bachelor. May 1.—This morning I dropped into the Columbia library for some mat- erial in Ames Cases. I loaned my copy to Helen Macaulay’s (her other name is too hard to spell) son, a very bright young chap who is going to Harvard. Well who should be across the table from me but Mrs. Hyatt! I knew her in a flash. The years have touched her much more lightly than they have many of us. She is taking post graduate work at Columbia in the history department. Her grand- daughter is with her, also going to school, and they are true pals. May 5.—Had lunch with Helen Macaulay today. She i$ chairman of the Woman’s Party and that, with her charity work, keeps her quite busy. She is talking of going to London soon to inspect and report to the Uplift Club the moral conditions in the toothpick factories. She tells me that Mary Jackson has been hired by the Club to direct their new reform film. Mary has been directing lor years and they are very fortunate to secure her. Her last picture, “The Dang- erous Daring Delilah,'’ has been a wonderful success on Broadway. May 8,—Had a letter from Eva today. Her youngest has just had his tonsils removed. Her husband is working on combustible gases, which may in time replace gasoline, and she is helping him in the laboratories. He thinks no one else in the world can hand him test tubes excepting her, and she is happy to do it. She says that Laura Rundle’s husband is in jail again. Poor Laura! 1 suppose she will have to go to washing again! June 3.—I never thought it of Gladys, but there it is all over the front page of the Times. Gladys Wareham, former Follies girl, inmate at the Muskogee. Oklahoma Old Folk’s Home, discharged because the authorities discovered that 40 she was using Golden Glint Hair Dye. I knew that she got into the Follies not long after graduation from K, S. T. C. but this—I must send this paper to Eva, she will enjoy the details. June 6.—Lunched with Mary Jackson at the Ritz, discussing the technical- ities of her contract with the Uplift Club. When we were coming through the I lobby, Mary stopped and stared at a man sitting near the east entrance. Then she rushed over to him exclaiming, Everitt Jenkins!” It really was he, but I should never have known him. Oil was discovered on his place in the sand hills a number of years ago, and he reflects bis success in many ways, especially about his waist band. His wife, a slender, little dark-eyed woman, came down while we were talking. Mary invited us all to dinner next Thursday evening at her apartment. June 7.—Received invitation. As usual, I have nothing to wear. June 8.—Stopped at “Madame Betty’s” to order a dinner dress for Thursday evening. Madame Molgard herself came to serve me. I felt honored indeed and left the entire selection with her. Her creations are the marvel of the age. Her art is supreme, but Oh!—Her bills!—Her husband, who is in New Mexico for his i health, is much better and hopes to be able to return home soon. June 18.—Received a letter from Eva. Laura Rundle’s husband is out again and they have moved to Grand Island where she is matron of the Burling - ton station. Have telegram from Forbes and have to go to Kansas City on busi- ness. Kansas City, June 23.—Arrived hot and tired. Stopped at the station to get a soda before going up town. Next to me sat a lady of very generous pro- portions. Near her sat a very thin, very small man. I noticed the lady watching me critically and I frankly stared at her. Yes, it was Bessie Watkin-Tuggle. She was married not long after graduation. Bess has grown quite positive in her manner and her husband is very, very acquiescent. They are returning to their home near Alliance after visiting Esther Harman, It seems that Esther was on • he verge of winning fame as a clarinet player, when she had a slight disagree- ment with her land lady and in the altercation that followed, she lost a front tooth. This ruined her hopes and she has retired from public life to the Ozark Mountains, where she is conducting a chicken ranch very successfully. Bess says that she hears regularly from Frances Williams, w'ho is having thrilling experiences as a missionary in Tibet. The recent troubles in India and China have caused many of the missionaries in her territory to flee, but she is remaining in the face of grave danger of uprisings. 4! Elms Hotel, Excelsior Springs, Mo., June 28.—It is so hot in the city I thought I might find some relief and rest in this quiet place. In glancing at the menu I noticed Steenbock’s Famous Table d’Hote —and at the bottom of the page I found this: “All our meals are prepared under the scientific direction of Miss Martha Steenbock, food chemist.” Yes it really was our Martha Steen- bock and her name is in Who's Who for compounding a new salad dressing. . July 8.—Back in Kearney again. The old place is certainly familiar. One of the first persons I met was Florence Miller, now Mrs. Crozier. They are running a boarding house for students. I inquired for Miss Crisp and found that she is the head of the biology department at the University of Nebraska. She is a worker and deserves her success. October 10.—A part of us went to Cambridge in Mary’s Aeroplane this afternoon to see the Harvard-Yale game. Helen’s son is fullback for Harvard and of course they won. Their team work was wonderful and, if they continue such playing throughout the season, their head coach, Gabriel Hayek. may well be proud of them. His last year’s team was great, but this one is marvelous. I saw Ray Bean at the game. He has a chair in English Literature. His specialty, I be- lieve is old Celtic sagas. He won renown by counting all the verbs in Shake- speare. November 2.—Received a letter from Bess Watkin-Tuggle. She said that Maude Murphy is principal in the High School at Alliance. She was post- mistress in her home town a number of years, but she returned to school work as it was more congenial. Just read in the Tribune that The Dangerous Daring Deliah would be shown in Chicago for the first time on New Years Day. The following excerpt was taken from the New York Times for November 15. 1943. Miss Hester Green Commits Sin of Self-Destruction. The following letter, taken from the effects of the dead woman, reveals the cause of the suicide. ’Alas diary dear, all these years I have been faithful to him, have hoped and longed and waited. I had supposed that tomorrow I would be in a state of wedded bliss. But now, all this can never be. Life is no longer worth the living, so tomorrow' I shall go to Niagra. My only hope is that I may not be judged too harshly. 42 mmm 43 Junior Class. Officers.

S. T. C. Many of the present members were Juniors when our College was a Normal School. New members have been added since that time until we now number thirty-two. The class has ever been prominent in promoting school spirit, scholastic ability and class loyalty. This eminence has been the result of the efficient guid- ance of our sponsors Miss Hanthorn and Mr. Engleman. f We have had many pleasant social events during our college days. One of our most enjoyable times this year was the breakfast held at Lake Kearney late in September. An early morning walk is always condusive to a hearty appetite, and the men prepared an excellent meal. Reminiscences of our college days caused much merriment. So also, did. the amateur golfing in which we indulged, just before starting for home. Our convocation program was our most spectacular event of the year. It disclosed to our audience the exceptional talent of some of the members of the Junior Class. Phil Person, our class president, gave a very interesting discussion on a broader philosophy of life. Two pleasing numbers were a vocal solo by Miss Ardyce Danielson and a novel duet sung by John Myers and Phil Person. The last number on the program was the farce, “The Street Picker Charles Neale typically portrayed the medicine man. He, with his helpers, Herbert Welte, the black comedian and Edward Styskal, the pickpocket, convulsed the audience with laughter. The members of the Junior Class rushed in and demanded their booty from the light-fingered faker. The program closed with the class cheer J-U-N-I-0-R-S-, Juniors. On our past accomplishments must rest our future achievements. With true worth for our goal and with a full realization of what college spirit really means.

The present irresistible Sophomore Class organized as Freshmen September, 1921, with a class of over two hundred. We have lost in numbers since then but not in spirit. Our first appearance was made in convocation. We responded to a call for a football pep” meeting. We appeared as much like infants as possible: girls with short dresses and flowing curls: boys with broad ruffles and fluffy ties. Our next performance was in re pon-e to the Sophomore take-off, The Freshmen at the Court of Justice. We, wishing to imply that the Sophomores were dead, re- ta lliated with the Graveyard Scene. The Sophomores said the stunt was ridicu- lous; the Juniors said it was desperately funny; but the Seniors said it was clever. People who had previously only heard of hair rising in fright, ever after could testify to its possibility. Bernice Pumphrey’s long braid rose straight into the air in one of the terrifying moments. As Freshmen we were proud that Verna Pielstick and Bernice Pumphrey came home from the State Commercial Contest with so many honors that K. S. T. C. was entitled to the State Championship in the Commercial Contest. Also, let it not be forgotten, that three of the six debaters on the College team were Freshmen: Clay Daggett, Carroll Morrow and Claude Weimer. Several delightful parties were held in the gymnasium during the year. A May breakfast at the lake closed the events of our Freshman year. In the autumn of 1923 we found we had lost none of the old time pep in the transit from Freshmen to Sophomores. One of the most interesting events of this year was the Hallowe’en party. There were appetiziftg refreshments, lively music and thrilling escapades. The evening’s entertainment ended with a quiet chat around the candles. Harold Craig and Carroll Morrow entertained us with stories. At Christmas time, the Sophomores, represented by Edward Styskal and Edna Gettys as Mr. and Mrs. Santa Claus, gave a program and distributed ap- propriate precent: to most of the faculty and to a number cf the students. The Seniors, having no man's name entered on their class roll at that time, were given a boy doll. There are rumors that he is safely kept as the Senior Mascot. A novelty party recently held in the gymnasium will always be remembered as the Sophomore “track meet. ’ Different groups represented the colleges, Oxford, Harvard and Princeton. Each college prepared a number of yells and soon everyone was hoarse from yelling. Oxford came out first in everything except the relay race. Teh yown even the “standing broad jump,’’ where the broadest grin won. The Sophomore issue of the Antelope, published October 27, will go down in history as causing more mental disturbance in the College than any other event of the season. It brought the Juniors out of their state of apathy to the extent that the Sopholope resulted—not a work of art exactly, but a joy forever—for we found the Juniors to be really alive. Now with all good wishes, we retire for the present, but not without our aspirations. With our splendid sponsors. Miss Ethel Craig and Mr. A. L. Phillips, who have ever been a source of inspiration and of service, we are look- ing forward to a happy and brilliant completion of our college life. The Sophomores may not be an ignition element, but “The sparks fly up- ward, outward, ever. 53 1925 H ir BL.TJE mbGOLD fW 1923 ra La---------------r—--------------- : 4 Freshman Class. Officers.

We were indeed fortunate to have two of the wide awake members of the faculty. Miss Patton and Mr. Otto Olsen, for our sponsors. Mi s Ruth Scoutt was elected temporary president and Mr. Weimer, temporary secretary and Antelope reporter. Our next meeting was held in the auditorium because all other rooms were too small for cur large class of two hundred eighty-seven members. At this time the class officers were elected. Our first social function was a wiener roast. Everyone had an enjoyable time and made many new acquaintances. The Freshman class proved its original- ity at the hard time party which was held in the gymnasium, November 1 7. The dilapidated condition of some of the garments worn afforded much amusement. The “kid party on January 27 was one cf the most unique and enjoyable events of the year. Games in accordance with the nature of the party were played. On November 24, appeared the Antelope printed in an extraordinary and attractive color. This, of course, was the Freshman issue of the college paper. The contributions to this issue proved that the Freshmen were very capable journalists. The Freshmen presented their convocation program on February 7. It consisted of the following: Lois GranstafF showed the fate of the little boys who didn’t say their prayers; a cornet solo by Woodward Burgert; a piano solo by Henri Todd, and a graceful solo dance by Lucille Metz. The concluding number consisted of a representation of by-gone school days. We are looking forward to the remaining years of our college work as a source of happiness. Our goal is clearly before us—our efforts are bent toward attaining it. 58 Freshman Sponsors. FRESHMEN MISS O'CONNELL MR. TRYKLUND Senior Preparatory Class. Class Officers.

Carroll Anderson was elected president. Monthly meetings of the small group were held throughout the year and every effort was made to co-operate with other class organizations in all school activities. At the beginning of the present year our numbers were increased by a few new members from outside and by a lively contingent from the Training School. Mr. Fryklund was appointed as a second sponsor. While at this stage of our career wTe have no great deeds or important events to chronicle, we have an abiding faith in ourselves and in our ability to make good.

ID. C. A. The Young Women’s Christian Association is the largest organization in the College, with the exception of the Women’s League to which every girl in school belongs. The primary purpose of the organization is to promote the religious life of the girls. This is accomplished by holding weekly devotional meetings every Thursday at the regular convocation period. They are contributed to by faculty members and outside speakers as well as by the students. A second purpose of the Y. W. is to sponsor such social activities as will embody clean, wholesome enjoyment and true recreational value. The Y. W. aids in the Annual Mixer in the fall and gives one all-school party in February. This year a “Have a Heart’ Valentine Party was given and was well attended by both faculty and students. A membership campaign was staged during the third week of the fall term and two hundred twenty-five girls were enrolled as members, each paying the yearly fee of one dollar. A membership banquet was given on September 28 in the gymnasium. The Y. W. has had charge of the rale of tickets for the Lyceum course and was responsible for all advertising in connection with it. The annual Holiday Festival, which is a mcney-making event, was held December 16, from four to ten P. M. Booths of homemade candy, handker- chiefs, Christmas cards, toys, and art-craft were open from four until time for the Orpheum in the auditorium. Six side shows, under the auspices of the Rural Club, Y. M. C. A., Camp Fire, Latin Club, Aspasians and French Club, were open to the public from seven until eight-thirty. The total proceeds from the Festival were $216.34, with a balance of $168.82. This amount was applied on the Y. W. Student Loan Fund which has now reached a total of $597,17. One hundred fifty dollars has been set aside for men students, the remainder being available to women only. The cabinet, consisting of the president, secretary, treasurer and the chair- men of standing committees, meets on the first and third Mondays of each month to discuss plans for the organization. Several cozy cabinet suppers have been held in connection with the business meetings. Each committee chairman has a faculty adviser, one of whom is elected general chairman of the Advisory Board. They meet with the cabinet once a month and offer valuable assistance and expert ad- vice. For the year 1922-23, the Advisory Board was as follows: Finance Committee.........Ethel Craig (Also general chairman) Social Service .............................Mrs. H. O.

We bequeath to the incoming cabinet a spirit of optimism and a vision of an organization which shall be nationally known as the best student society of its kind in the United States. «lit —a j BLUE ran GOLD ll g 192 Y. M. C. A. CABINET. Greetings, moct hearty and sincere, are extended by the Y, M. C. A. oi N. S. T. C. to all men. We rejoice to see the great prosperity of our local, slate, national, and international associations. Our greatest hope and expectation is, that, with a thousand other college associations, we will be able to eliminate the cause of war, and thus found lasting peace. We maintain that the horrors of war will be taken away only when the universal desire, the highest purpose of life, is that of service to others, rooted in Christian brotherhood instead of mutual necessity, cr science, or law, or commerce. Science has killed pestilence; commerce has killed famine; but only brotherhood will kill war, for It is the only thing which will eliminate the cause. Thus, the promotion of brotherhood is our supreme commitment. 1923 ll BLUE MP GOLD li 1923 [mI A ]]. M. C. A. Adviser..

A in the State Teachers’ College at Kearney holds as its phases of college life. On September 11, 1922, the annual watermelon feed was given. There were about one hundred twenty-five men at the gymnasium for a good time. Mr. Fisher directed the games that preceded the big feed. Each Wednesday evening during the year the men met in the Y. M. C. A. room for their weekly devotional and educational meeting which was followed by a social hour. Among the many sports which followed these meetings were swim- ming, boxing, wrestling and floor work of all kinds. On one occasion, following a splendid address by Judge Easterling, a big bean feed was served. The meetings for the year have been excellent, due to the faithful and loyal work of the program chairman. The devotional and educational meetings were of two types; namely, open forum discussions and lectures. Our program for the year included the following: a talk on “Football and Good Sportsmanship” by Coach Fulmer; a talk by Ed Ncimer on the “Near East Questiona lecture by Doctor The Y. M. C.

Catholic Students Association. The religious training of a student is an essential feature of his education. The leaders in Christian thought have long felt the necessity of providing a sup- plementary education in the Holy Scriptures and the teachings of the church. The Catholic Students Association was organized in the early history of the vchool and is endeavoring to fulfill the need of a study of Catholic belief and practices and reviews of Catholic literature. This work is carried on under the guidance of Prof. B. H. Patterson. The room, which has been so elegantly furnished by the Nebraska Knight of Columbus, is a pleasant place in which to hold weekly meetings. The generosity and interest in the work shown by the Knights of Columbus is inspirational to the students. Several social meetings are held during the year and are thoroughly enjoyed by the students.

Kindergarten Primanj Club. The Kindergarten-Primary Club was organized with the establishment cf the school, 1905, as the Kindergarten Bund. At present the membership is mor than fifty, including all students who are taking the Primary-Kindergarten Course. We have held several social meetings this year. Each one has been unique and full of fun. New members were initiated at the first meeting, and it will be long remembered, for the ceremony was such that only the wittiest were able to gain admittance. Another enjoyable meeting was the Kid Party. The refresh- ments were so appropriate (?) for kids” should not eat much before bed-time. The club is very fortunate in having such sponsors as Miss Scott and Miss Knutzen. They are always ready to plan with us for a good time, and to help us out of difficulties. Academy of Science and Mathematics. This organization was founded by interested students and faculty members of the Kearney State Teachers' College on the third of March, 1916, It is one of the biggest and best organizations in the College. It is made up of energetic folk who appreciate an opportunity to learn things worth while. It was because of the intense interest in and keen desire for further investiga- tion and clear cut discussions of scientific topics of the day, that the Academy of Science and Mathematics sprang into existence. The organization was originally intended for those who were majoring in the departments of science and of mathematics. We are glad to find, however, many others listed with those who arc concerned with the furtherance of scientific research. No doubt the healthy habit of reading the scientific contributions of the magazines and newspapers along with the studies of the text books, is responsible in no small measure for the readiness with which students attack research problems. The particular topics selected for discussions are those that provoke thought and impress us with the advantage which such broad views give in the solution of problems of business and professional life. This is a new and exceptional age. It is an age of scientific progress. The air is full of music, sermon, and song. It is for the scientist to successfully tap this reservoir of life-enriching materials. We have learned that the bacteria are as essential to life as is the bird of the air or the beast of the field. Good citizenship is fostered by the study of such topics as personal hygiene, sanitation, drainage, irrigation, forestry, transportation, waterways, parks, mines, foods, plants, and good roads. These things are vital parts of every day existence and they contribute to our welfare. Student and in- structor members alike find food for thought. The splendid presentations of the topics tend to clarify the atmosphere of misunderstanding and vagueness. Time and energy are well spent in attending the monthly meetings that are held on the third Tuesday of each month of the regular school year. 79 On a starry nig'ti in winter. On a starry night of Snow-Moon, Seventeen maids of Uncapapa Paused awhile from all their lessons, Gathered around the Council fire Of the Camp of Uncapapa. Called there by dear Yai-a-Wah-Nah. One by one We took our places, With the l and sign took our places, Welcomed thus by Yai-a-Wah-Nah. Gathered then in solemn circle, WatcTed the lighting of the candles, Mystic candles of Wohelo. Listened to the ceremony. Round the candles brightly burning Sang We songs of Uncapapa; Songs of all the Camp Fire Maidens. Then Yai-a-Wah-Nah came with honors, Honors for the faithful maidens Who are working for Wohelo. Maidens two of Uncapapa, Wi-to-no-hi and 0$o-ha, Came with fagots to this fire. Symbols of a new desiret Fagots gathered from the forest. Gathered for our loved Wohelo. With their hands in clasp of friend- ship, Friendship to their Camp Fire sisters. Gave their pledges of allegiance. True alleg'ance to their sisters. Sang we then a song of welcome� Welcome to our new Wood-gatherers Thus ire sang there in the fire-light, 5ang and parted for our wigwams. Hastened homeward through the star- light, Homeward to our several wigwams. Camp Fire. The Camp Fire of f 92 3 is not a noisy organization, but nevertheless we have been doing things. We have a full camp of twenty members who are working hard for beads and ranks. We have held our meetings regularly every week. These meetings have been business, social, work and ceremonial. We have taken several hikes into the country where we cooked and ate our «uppers in the open. How we en- joyed them and the walks heme in the moonlight! One evening was spent at the home of cur guardian. Miss Hosic, where we enjoyed pop-corn and apples and a number of stunts which cn’y Miss Hosic knows how to conduct. We took part in the Y. W. C. A. Holiday Festival with a short program of Camp Fire rongi, and Indian dances and ceremonies. The play, “A Southern Cinderella,” was given in the auditorium in February. With the proceeds from this play we purchased new furniture for the Camp Fire room, Qirls' Athletic Association. Officers President.....................................

Amelia Downing Representative of Woman’s League Council.. Pluma Curtis Sponsor.......................................... Miss Andrews The G. A. A. was organized soon after the opening of the fall quarter of 1922, with sixty-tw'o members interested in games and other lines of physical culture. All girls winning 800 points in contests are to be awarded large blue and gold letters that may be worn on sweaters. Besides these, there are other honors: pollyw'og, frog, and fish honors for sw'imming and felt honors for hiking. Every Tuesday and Thursday evening during the first quarter, girls gathered in the gymnasium for games. Captain Ball, Volley Ball, Basket Ball and Newccme were the favorites. The contestants on the final team were always given 100 points, so the girls found a special interest in the games, for each G. A. A. girl would like to own a K. As a relief from w'ork and a sharpener of appetites, several ten mile hikes were taken. On one occasion the tired feet were rested and hearts lightened by a farmer offering free passage to his big pile of w-atermelons. As winter approached, the lake afforded an opportunity for skating parties, and several pleasant evenings were spent there. During the Health Week when the health and physical culture demonstration pictures were ehown, the G. A. A. purchased cne reel to further the cause. This is the first organization of its kind in the history of the College, but we hope to continue it in the future. In swimming, hiking, and all other forms of physical development for girls, it stands for a better, stronger, happier college w-oman. CT 81 EMANONS The Emanons. This society fcr young men was founded during the period when most of the present members were learning their first rudiments of speech. In lire fifteen years of its existence, the membership of the society Iras not fluctuated in number to a very great extent. During the recent war. when the young men were learning to shoot instead of argue, the membership sank to a very low ebb. Just previous to the war, the roll of the society was the longest in its history. Since the war the society has again started to grow, and the future pro peels are rosy indeed. The work of the organizatoin is largely what is implied in the name “De- bating Society. The underlying idea is to give training in public speaking. The ability to conduct a meeting according to parliamentary law is also developed by frequent exercise and driP. The ability to think “on your feet” and not “lose veur head” while under the gaze of your lellows is the end sought. The prerent critic, Mr. Harding, is proving hinrclf a most valuable asset. He is maintaining the high standard of work set for him by his predecessors. 83 s I t Aspasians. The Aspasians are a group of girls organized for the purpose of attaining unto some of Aspasia’s attributes; namely, those of grace, poise and intellect. Aspasia was a native of Ionia. The date of her birth is not recorded but is placed about 480 B. C. She was a brilliant, attractive woman, whose chief charm was her intellect. Early in the history of K, S. T. C. a need was felt for such an organization, and under the leadership of Miss Gertrude Gardner, the Aspasian organization was perfected. There have been periods of depression, yet they struggled on un- daunted until 1923, when the membership reached its maximum mark of fifty. This organization does not neglect the social side of life. Joint meetings with the Emanons are held each quarter. Some very interesting events have taken place, such as “Scrambled Pies,“ or “Mock Weddings,’ and various initiations, where the girls were made to eat angle worms, or to embrace a skeleton. Many other social occasions are provided, as well as debates, impromptu speeches, and drills in parliamentary law. The girls wrote letters of friendship to the college students of the Near East, expressing sympathy for them in their vast problems which are holding the at- tention of the world. During the Holiday Festival given by the Y. W,, the Aspasians gave a “Baby Show.” Later in the year they pledged their support to the basket ball tournament. We may say that the Aspasians meet all situations with gracious willingness. Once an Aspasian always an Aspasian. and thus the circle grows larger and its influence is felt farther each year. tt Debates. The months of February and March are the breezy periods for the Ne- braska debaters, and during the debating season of this year the forensic re- presentatives of Kearney were the stormy-petrels of the state conference. Not only were the members of the squad enthusiastic proponents of their side of the pro- position, but the members of the student body also demonstrated an interest in de- bating unsurpassed in the history of the school. There were few empty seats in the auditorium during any of the debates, and at some of them the speakers orated to standing-room only. The debating season officially began in this school on February 15. when the affirmative team from Cotner College visited the school. After winning the first debate the members of the squad were kept busy preparing both offensive and defensive armament for the following debates: University of Wyoming at Kearney. February 22. Kearney at Laramie, Wyoming, February 23. York College at Kearney. March 8, Kearney at York, Nebraska, March 8. Central College at Kearney, March 9. Kearney at Central City, March 9. Doane College at Kearney, March 22. Kearney at Cotner, March 22. Kearney at Hastings, March 23. f 85 1923 1923 The general interest in the question at issue aided greatly in the preparation and the support of the debates. The new material constantly appearing in books and magazines caused many changes to be made in the arguments as the season progressed. This tended in turn to augment the interest of the students. The pro- position was: Resolved that all inter-allied war debts should be cancelled. This question was selected at a meeting of delegates, representing all schools in the Ne- braska Conference. The representatives from this college were Phil Person and Carroll Morrow. Slightly antedating the selection of the question, a Forensic League was or- ganized in this school. The object of this organization was the promotion and the support of intercollegiate debating. The following officers were elected: Rae Weimer, president; Tillie Rerucha, secretary; Josephine Sadler, treasurer. Pro- fessor Phillips was selected as sponsor of the league. Correspondence with other schools was begun immediately by Carroll Morrow, and the schedule as listed above was made. Little work by the debating squad was done before Christmas. The tryout held on December 23 failed to provide a complete squad. Volunteers from the debating class stepped into the breach, and immediately after the holidays work was begun in earner I for the ccming debates. The members of the squad were: Clark Cullom. Rae Weimer, Laura Rundle, Ross May, Walter McClure, Samuel Forney, Dewey Ganzel and Phil Person. Several of the experienced debaters of the school found it impossible, because of outside and extra work, to enter the squad. This fact weakened the teams at the beginning, but the inexperienced members made up by hard work what they lack- ed in practice and soon overcame this disadvantage. Many difficulties had to be met by the team and as the season developed the:e troubles became almost epide- mic. Influenza took its tell of the debaters time and strength, and the concentrated work necessary for the short post season period caused many conflicts with other events, compelling the debaters to : aerifice attendance at other affairs in order to practice from the plat form. At the end of the winter term two members of the affirmative team left school and this required rearrangement of team members. Miss Laura Rundle was transferred from the negative team to the affirmative team, where she did wrork equal to. if not better, than she had done on the ne- gative team. Phil Person then volunteered to fill the remaining vacancy on the affirmative team. Thus the work was carried on without interruption. The staunch loyalty cf the team to the school and their willingness to pul forth every effort possible for victory are the outstanding attributes of the ? 923 squad. Even as the Reman orator, Cato, ended every rpeech with the words. “Carthage must be destroyed, so did every member of the teams mentally begin each speech with “Kearney must win. r N -El 80 the debating teams THEATRE ARTS' LEAGUE Theatre Arts' League. At the opening cf the school year in September, the entire constitution was revised, and the former Dramatic Club emerged as the Theatre Arts’ League. One of the outstanding features of the new constitution was the limiting of the number of active members to thirty. A?I above that number who succecsfully try out for the League are put upon a waiting list to be admitted as soon as practicable. On January 12, 1923, the League presented the play “Peg O’ My Heart,’’ by J. Hartley Manners, featuring iMrs. Pearl Plank. She was ably supported by the following members: Mrs. Chichester ..................................... Mae Livings Ethel, Mrs. Chichester’s daughter...............

S9 WOMAN’S LEAGUE COUNCIL The IDoman's League. Officers President .................................. Claire Robertson Secretary ..................._.................. Elvira Anderson Treasurer ................................... Tillie Rerucha The Woman’s League is the one organization which unites all of the wo- men students in the College. Membership becomes automatic with registration. The League was organized early in the autumn of 1921. The need for a democratic organization of this kind, through which all of the girls might express themselves, war keenly felt during the rapid growth of the school after it be- came a Teachers College. The Woman’s League was then organized, the con- stitution drawn up, and a far-seeing program adopted by the unanimous vote of the enthusiastic women students. The League is wisely and ably sponsored by Miss Wirt, Dean of Women. The object of the organization is to promote social and intellectual activities among the wemen of the school, to co-operate with the College officials in the regulation cf Col’ege conventions, to foster the spirit of unity and loyalty to the State Teachers’ College at Kearney, and to aid in preparation for greater world service. These aims are accomplished by various means. The League sponsors parties and receptions, recommends improvements about the buildings, brings lecturers to the school, and helps in all progressive movements within the College. Two enterprises of which the League is especially proud are the publication and free distribution of the College Handbook to all the student?, and the establish- ment and maintenance of a loan fund. The League membership fees, twenty-five cents from every girl, go into the loan fund, which is now attaining considerable proportions and is enabling several girls to continue their college courses. Regular meetings of the League are held once each month, and the regular work is carried on by three standing committees. These committees are the school committee, the athletic and social committee, and the regulations committee. Programs are planned and special work is done by the Council, which is composed of the League officers, the Dean of Women, and representatives from each class and Christian organization, from Green Terrace Hall, from the out- of-town girls, and from the girls who live in Kearney. One outstanding feature of the program for the year has been the co-opera- tion with the Kearney Wcman’s Club. As a result the League members have been graciously entertained in many Kearney homes, and the city Woman’s Club, as a group, was entertained at the College by the League. This meeting of the city v omen and the college girls was most delightful and entertaining, and may be legarded as the first step toward a much closer and mutually helpful co-opera- tion between the two organizations. The Woman’s League stands ready to promote any movement that will make for the progress and the welfare of the student body at Kearney Teachers College. 03 The Rural Club. Officers ...................... Earl Patten .................. Leona Wellard ... Gertrude Zimmerman ................... Theresa Frandsen SpOiNSORS Mr. Powell Mr. Hans Olsen Mrs. Powell There are times when people wonder if the Teachers’ College has started a r.ight school. About 6:30 p. m. each Tuesday evening students are seen moving toward the college. They are not hurrying to a class, however. They merely want to be on time for the Rural Club meeting at seven o’clock. Professor L. B. Sipple, who was at the head of the Rural Department in 1916, sponsored the organization of the Rural Club in the summer of that year. Hans Olsen was elected president and a membership of one hundred students was enrolled. This club ncwr has been functioning for seven years and the summer membership has climbed steadily until in 1922 it reached the two hundred thirty mark. We now find more than one hundred members enrolled during the regular school year. Our college clubs are usually organized for a purpose that fits in with the serious attitude of teachers-in-training. The Rural Club is no exception to this rule. The members meet and listen to lectures delivered by the best talent that the Col- lege affords—President Martin, many of the best teachers, and notable outsiders being invited to speak before the club. These lectures are preceded by readings and musical numbers. The members of the club are called upon to take part in the programs and thus a great amount of latent talent is discovered and developed. An ordinary Tuesday evening’s entertainment generally consists of: community singing, led by John Myers; the business meeting: a lecture by some member of the faculty; a vocal or instrumental se'ecticn; and one or two readings. The rest of the evening is rpent in plays and games under the leadership of Mrs. Powell. Seme of the club’s achievements are: the production of the play. Home Ties, in the summer of 1922; the banquet given at Glenwood for the officers and teachers of the affiliated schools and members of the Rural Club; and the sub- stantial aid given to the basket ball tournament held in Kearney in March, 1923. The club has under consideration a plan to purchase a moving picture machine. This machine would be used to show the people of different districts how their respective communities rank educationally. The members will probably cause these projects to materialize in the near future and it is hoped that the greatest possible good will resu't frem them. Another of the big hopes of the club is the production of a play based upon the theme of school consolidation. This play will be given in communities in which the topic of school consolidation is before the people. Nearly every Friday night groups of Rural Club members attend meetings of Parent-Teachers Associations and other types of community meetings in the affiliated schools. Participation in such meetings gives prospective rural teachers excellent training for promoting community wrork in the districts in which they may teach. President Vice President Treasurer .....

Irvin Keim Antelope Reporter.-.......................... Woodward Burgert The Latin Club has been unu ually interesting this year under the very capable leadership of Miss Rundle. The c’ub was organized to give the students a clearer idea of the relationship between the Latin language and the history, life, literature, art and politics of the period in which Latin flourished. In the papers which have been read before the club, there were many things which were peculiar and amusing, and at once entertaining and educational. The dub, besides furnishing entertainment, is invaluable to the student who is f pedal- izing in Latin and expects to teach it. The picture, Julius Caesart wil be presented April 20, as the Latin Club’s part of the year's pregram in College, It is highly recommended by the classical societies of several universities, and premires to be one of the most at- tractive features of the school year. It is especially appropriate as a Latin Club production because it emphasizes our purpose—to help students appreciate Latin and the history associated with it.

Esther Stover Antelope Reporter .............................Rhea Rentfrow Le Cercle Francais was organized in 1919 and is an organization whose purpose is to supplement the work of the class room. It offers additional oppor- tunity for practice in learning and speaking the French language, and for acquir- ing a broader and more sympathetic understanding of the French people. The club meets the third Wednesday of every month. The programs con- sist of stories, games, plays and songs, all of which tend to foster a truly French atmosphere. The play, Le Malade Imagieniere, by IVloliere, presented by Gordon Smith, Edith Kiskalt. Gertrude Toll, Elizabeth Squires. Woodward Burgert. Henri Todd, Ted Olson and Glen Carper, furnished a very interesting and en- joyable convocation program in December. All French students and others especially interested in French are eligible to membership in the club. Visitors are always very welcome. 97 1925 T BLUE MD GOLD IfH? 1923 L sa g irBLuE MID GOLD 11 jEEp 1S2 Men’s Qlee Club. The Men s Glee Club was organized by Miss Una Snidow of the Music Department of K. S. T. C. in September, 192 I. The club had a large enrollment and met for practice twice a week. The object of the G’ee Club is to bring together students who are interested in music and to further develop the appreciation of good music throughout the school Many very enjoyable trips were taken to the near-by towns, and the en- tertainments met with the approval of the public. In September. 1922, the Men's Glee Club was reorganized under the direc- tion of Professor George H. Aller. Mr. Aller has had tewenty-eight years of prac- tical experience in this line of work and is exceptionally skilled in ensemble drill The men have been called upon to sing at various entertainments. The munc is always of the best. The concert on February 24 was well given. The boys are making an excellent Towing and plans are being made for an eight day trip to be taken in the spring. IPomen’s Qlee Club. The Women’s Glee Club was first organized in 1907. It was successfully conducted under the leadership of Mrs. Grace E. Steadman who sponsored the club until 1920. The work was continued by Miss Una Snidow, bead of the Music Department, and in 1921 and 22 the club made an extended trip over tbe state A cantata, “The Garden of Flowers,14 was thoroughly mastered.

It affords an opportunity for students who are players of band instruments, to obtain invaluable instruction. Professor B. H, Patterson was placed in charge of band nine years ago, and has succeeded in establishing a high standard for such an organization in a Teachers’ College. Usually two public concerts are given during the school year. The band furnishes music for all of the athletic contests. The following is a specimen program of the annual spring concert given by the State Teachers’ College Band, Prof. B.

It has become invaluable to school activities. This organiza- tion is called upon to play for convocation exercises three times a week, and assists materially at all school parties, lecture course entertainments, or any functions sponsored by the school. The Placing Bureau. The Teachers' Placing Bureau of the K. S. T. C. was organized in 1919. At that time Prof. H. O. Sutton was chairman of the committee. Aided by Miss Wirt and Prof. M. S. Pate, he gave unqualified and unstinted service to the applicants of (he Bureau. The committee has changed in membership from time to time. This year it has been composed of Dr. Yoakam, chairman, Miss Wirt, Professor Pate and Professor Powell. Although the membership of the committee has changed, the aims and ideals have remained the same. The Bureau acts as a clearing house for employment. It aids all qualified matriculants of the K. S. T. C. to secure desirable positions. In this way it ac- complishes its greatest aim, that of serving the schools of the state in an edu- cational way. The Bureau’s highest ideal is to be truly professional. It discourages any attempt at competition, such as underbidding. It never appoints an applicant until assured that the applicant is fitted for the position, and but one person is at a time to any one position. Dr. Yoakam with characteristic aptness has embodied the ideals of the Bureau in the following statement: It is the purpose of this to educate the student for his life work; it is our purpose to give the chance to use that education. appointed! and aims institution student a 104 IPS' CHARI ES L. NEALE. Editor Charles “Chick” Neale has been president of the K Club for the past two terms. Under his leadership the K Club has been boosted from an inactive or- ganization to cne of the most wide awake groups in the school. The Football Bulletin, the football team sweaters, the Athletic Carnival, and the co-operation and trophies furnished in the High School Basket Ball tournament are some of the achievements of the K Club. Kearney State Teachers’ College needs more men like Mr. Neale, who give their best, unselfishly, to any worthy cause. “He profits most who serves best.” 10« 1923- 11 BUTE mi GOLD Ifg? 1923 Football 1922. The curtain for the 1922 football season raised and disclosed a squad of thirty-eight huskies with Coach Fulmer in charge and Fisher, assistant. Prospects for a winning team were never better at the K. S. T. C. with ten letter men and a host of other promising material cn the field. The season opened on the home field when our warriors faced Nebraska Central. The heat was intence and because of lack of training. Coach Fulmer was forced to substitute freely. However our gladiators emerged from the fray with the long end of a 20 to 0 score. For the next game our boys went to Hastings to battle with the Bronchos. Both teams fought hard but neither was able to push the pigskin across the goal line for a score. Several times the Blue and Gold warriors were within striking distance, only to lose the ball in the shadow of their own goal posts. Grand Island then invaded the Antelope territory and took the game with a score of I 3 to 0. The Zebras were of a more or less pugilistic nature and our boys, unused to such tactics, were forced to play again:t overwhelming odds. Fate seemed to be against our boys and the Antelopes were unable to make a touch- down. Grand Island was later forced to forfeit the game because of playing ineligible men. How'ever, it must be conceded they had a strong team for they de- feated Wesleyan and held Midland to a scoreless tie. The fourth game was with our sister institution at Peru. The Antelopes presented such a strong defense that the Peruvians were forced to resort to pass- ing. Thus they were able to score two touchdowns. The Antelopes succeeded in getting within a foot of a touchdown, when they fumbled and the referee decided that the ball should go to the opponents. The final score stood 12 to 0 against the Antelopes, but the Peru warriors had just cause for rejoicing, Kearney came back strong in the next game, defeating York by a score of 26 to 0. Our boys were greatly handicapped, having made the trip in cars. The cars did not all arrive at the same time, and the game started with several first string men out. The Antelopes made one touchdowm during the first half, but were “warmed up somewhat for the second half and consequently pushed the oval across three t mes. The ork team was to be commended for their glorious defeat. They tried their best to score and never gave up until the final whistle blew. In the next game Kearney again showed her batt’ing strength by defeating the fast Chadron eleven by a score of 15 to 7. In this game several of our itrongest players were out; but not to be daunted our boys set to work and dis- played such a style of football that they were able to overthrow their opponents. The Chadron Eagles should not be misjudged, for they too played a wonderful brand of football. I in HOMER KuMMER, Fullback, Kearney—Pete captained the team this year with great success. He won honorable mention as all State Fullback. We hope to see Pete with us next season. Rex Reed.

Pudge Branson, Center, Kearney—Pudge played part time at center and guard. He passed the ball well and played a very hard game. Jack Holland, Halfback, Iowa—Holland is one of our new men.

Kearney opened its season of basket ball with Hastings by a defeat of 25 to 19. The game was one-sided the first half, but in the second half Kearnev came back with an almost sweeping victory, making 15 points. The absence of two regular men wras the probable cause of the Antelope s defeat. On January 25 the Antelopes won their first conference game from Mid- land College with a score of 27 to 19. The game was a complete walk-away for Kearney. Every man starred. Kummer and Dillow played a good defensive game, while Holland, Clinite and Dondlinger worked a good offensive. Our quintet journeyed to Doane where they met with defeat at the hands of the fast Doane team. The next night another defeat was handed to the Ante- lopes by last year's champions. The Peruvians were too much for our boys the first half, but the second half was an even go. The game ended 28 to 9. Coming back strong the next week, the Antelopes surprised Grand Island by winning to the tune of 26 to 22. The game featured close guarding on both sides, but on account of the small floor most of the goals were made by long field throws. Doane College made a return visit and expected to win by an easy margin, but the Antelopes were too much for them. The exceptionally good work of Kum- mer kept the Doane quintet from piling up a large score. At the end of the game line score was 55 to 26 in the Antelope s favor. The team played Cotner University on her home floor the following week. The Bulldogs put up a hard fight, but were unable to stop the Antelopes. At the end of the first half, the score stood 20 to 10 in Kearney’s favor. The Bulldogs made a strong come back in the remaining half, although not quite enough to take the honors. This victory placed Kearney third in the conference. The Hastings boys, who had previously won from the Antelopes, met their defeat on Kearney’s floor in a fast, exciting game. Pettijohn starred for the locals, shooting six field goals the first half. The game ended 25 to 13 with the Hast- ings team wondering how it was so easily defeated. The Cotner Bulldogs played their return game on February 23. Cotner scor- ed the first goal. It was not long until the fast Kearney quintet showed their metal and piled up 24 points to Cotner's 7 at the end of the first half. The second half was a repetition of scores for both sides. The game ended 41 to 15. The team as a whole played a starring game. Clinite showed accuracy in shooting long field goals. On March 7, the Kearney boys lost a bard-fought game with the Peruvians. The last regular games were played at Chadron on March 9 and 1 0. The following men participated in the conference games: Lester Dillow, Captain, Chuck Clinite. Raymond Dondlinger, Pat Panek, Melvin Holland, Earnest Stephens, Chas. Neale, Rex Reed, Hugh Pettijohn, Homer Kummer and Glen Hardin. .IT SECOND BASKET BALL TEAM The College “Whiz Bangs' (second Clothiers, won. Pierce Buicks, 2 games, won. State Industrial School, won.

Promptly at seven-thirty the guests began to arrive. When the doors were opened, a bower of beauty was revealed. Myriads of red and white lanterns, butterflies and balloons were suspended from the ceiling. This was a work of ingenuity and art. Stationed around the room were booths: here you could get your “hearts” mended and your future foretold. Strains of music issued from the Hawaiian booth, and from the corner where the orchestra was seated. A chamber of horrors, where one experienced many thrills, and a bowling alley, where your reward was given to you in hearts, received liberal patronage. One of the prettiest features of the evening was a Valentine dance by Vivian Bennett, followed by the grand march led by Dr. and Mrs. Yoakam. Just before the announcement that “the tea room is now open to the guests,” a flash light picture was taken of the merry group. The guests were directed to the room which was indeed a fairy land. The color scheme used was salmon and green. These colors were intertwined with morning glories. The waitresses were dainty and charming in their Japanese costumes. They served brick ice cream with heart decorations. Reception in Honor of Chadron Team. The “All School Party, given in the gym in honor of the football team of the S. T, C. at Chadron, was one of the most distinctive social events of the College. Promptly at 7:30 about live hundred guests and students directed their way to the place of festivities. While the orchestra played, every one became well acquainted by matching appropriate footballs. Mr. and Mrs. Powell then led the grand march, ending with a complete circle which gave all an excellent loca- Iton for the musical program which followed,. The program consisted of a vocal solo by Mr. Patterson, a trombone solo by Carroll Anderson, and a whistling solo by Mr, Burton. The remainder of the evening was spent in dancing the Virginia reel and other circle games, with Mr. Rae Weimer as master of ceremonies. Refreshments were served in the dining room, which was artistically decorat- ed with yellow chrysanthemums, autumn leaves and the beloved blue and gold. At ten o’clock the orchestra played “Good Night Ladies,” and all agreed that true college spirit had been shown by every N. S. T. C. student. ■fa -P 129 131 Official Statement of the 1923 Blue and Qold.
