His courage slackened never. He ventured all, that you and I Might have a home here by and by . . Our heritage forever. Through the gloom of years we pass in review, To the days of old Fort Kearney, When sturdy walls built strong and true Gave shelter to him who dared to do. Hail, all, to old Fort Kearney! We build again, we commemorate His work that could not fail. And our name with his affiliate As with quickening hearts we dedicate Fort Kearney, hail, all hail! In Memoriam. Professor C. N. Anderson. Professor C. N. Anderson was one of the pioneer teach- ers of Kearney State Normal School, beginning his work here as the head of the Social Science Department in the summer of 1903. He continued in this position till the summer of 1926, when because of failing health he was granted a leave of absence. He died January 31, 1929, aged sixty-two years. Professor -Anderson taught because he loved to teach and was a recognized leader in his chosen field. Under his leadership, the Kearney Normal School was the first in the state to give instruction in teaching grade history. Since 1910 be worked unceasingly for the teaching of history in each of the eight grades and prepared a course of study for these grades. This course was published in 1924 in the Ne- braska state course of study for rural schools. Under his guidance Kearney was also the first Normal school in the state to offer a course in Nebraska History. His loss is a serious one to the institution and to the state which he served, as well as a personal loss to every student who knew him and loved him, and to every mem- ber of the faculty with whom he worked. Professor B. H. Patterson. Professor B. H. Patterson, head of the Commercial De- partment of Kearney State Teachers College, was born in 1885 and died May 14, 1928. He was a member of the col- lege faculty lor seventeen years. During this time he did much in developing his department and extending the cause of education. His talent as a musician was recognized soon after his association with us and he gave of this talent freely. He was leader of the Kearney Municipal Band and an orches- tra which bore his name. In recent years he gained national prominence as a com- poser of hand music, two of his most attractive composi- tions being The Spirit of K. S, N.” and The City Beautiful.” He will long be remembered for his genial manner, his enthusiasm, his faith in his work, and his optimism. Pro- fessor Patterson has gone from among us hut his work and influence endure. Green Terrace Hall. This red brick hall with its wealth of green Has gardens ami pond where we linger unseen. Fred R.

She spent one summer in New York and half of the following year in the Philadelphia art school. She has been a student of Chase, Anshutz, Breck- enridge, Hawthorne, Carlson, and Johnnot, The seniors will never forget the even- ti ing ol March 5, 1929, when Miss Smith royally entertained them at a six o’clock dinner. Mr. M. S. Pate. Mr. M. S. Pate has been in this insti- tution for thirteen years. He received his two year diploma from Kearney in 1907. In 1913 he received his A.

Much credit is due our sponsors for the able manner in which they have guided the class of ’29 through four years of college life. The seniors wish to take this means of showing their appreciation of the con- stant efforts put forth by Mr. Pate and Miss Smith. Page Twenty.six 1949 LIBRARY ;....

Violet Price Secretary Arne Engberg Treasurer Students entering college for the first time enter a different world, a world that is strange and new. For this reason the new students, commonly known as freshmen, lorm a class, elect officers, and begin to take an active part in school affairs. This is not done by the student alone, but with the help of certain faculty members who act as advisers to the new class. It has been the good fortune of the freshman class of 1928-29 to have as its advisers Miss Alice M. Robinson and Mr. Lyle E. Man- tor. It is due to the service and the un- tiring efforts of these advisers that the freshman class has been able to cake an active part in the affairs of the school. The freshman class wishes to express its appreciation and thanks to Miss Robinson and Mr. Mantor. Miss Alice M. Robinson. Miss Robinson has been an instructor of Latin for the past two years in Kearney State Teachers College. She re- ceived her A. B. Degree from a Nebraska State Teachers College in 1919. In 1925 she received her A. M. Degree from the University of California. Mr. Lyle E. Mantor. Mr. Mantor received his A. B. Degree from the Iowa State Teachers College in 1922 and in 1925 he received his A. M. Degree from the same institution, and his Roberts Fellow in History from Columbia in 1926-27. He is head of the social science department. Dan� � Fifty-two Alexander Allen L. Anderson M. Anderson Beadle Beck Bennington Berge Bolen Bosselman Best Bil leter Britton Brouhard M. Brown E.

Antelopes for the past seven years, is due much credit for his winning teams. He is a coach of high ideals, clean living, and clean sports. In football he de- veloped a strong team of which we are justly proud. The basketball team won four- teen out of eighteen games and developed a defense which challenged the offensive strength of all their opponents. Ass’t. Coach Glen Spear. Coach Glen Spear, graduate of Drake University and former All-Missouri Valley fullback, appeared upon the gridiron to as- sist Coach Fulmer in developing a can’t be beat” football team for the year 1928. Glen did much to develop the technique and fundamentals in the backfield and through his efforts it was possible to develop a strong team which put up a wonderful battle on the offensive. Pdec Fifty-nine Football 1928. Oct. 20—Kearney 21; Wayne 0. Homecoming day. The Kearney line functioned better in this game than in any other game of the season. In the first play of the game Captain Wald- man received the ball from a cut-back play and ran 32 yards for a touchdown. Nov. 3—Kearney 0; Chadron 0. The Antelopes had proceeded as far as Sutherland when Chadron informed them thar it was impossible to play be cause of a heavy fall of snow. The re- turn trip was very difficult. Both teams were quite disappointed because of the fighting spirit that exists between the two schools. Nov. 9—Missouri Teachers 19; Kear- ney 12, At Kearney. Kearney scored their touchdowns early in the game, but the defense was not up to par with the offense and the Missourians scored three touchdowns in the second quarter. Af- ter receiving a well executed pass� Tol- lefsen ran 25 yards and scored the firsc touchdown for the Antelopes. The last half of the game was all Kearneys and only hard luck kept the Antelopes from scoring additional touchdowns. T. Smith WlNGERD Tschabrun Tollefsen Wolcott Now. 16—Peru 21; Kearney 0. At Peru. This game was played on a water covered field during a steady down- pour. The mistake of trying to carry the ball, even on the first down, proved the downfall of the Antelopes. Peru got the breaks and scored early. The game was nothing more than an exchanging of punts. Nov. 23—Kearney 39; Grand Island 0. At Grand Island. The entire Ante- lope squad saw action in both halves. Kearney completely outclassed their op- ponents, scoring two touchdowns in the first five minutes of the game. Kear- ney's line alone was able to stop the Islanders offense. Capt. Waldman scored three of the six touchdowns, one of the runs being 44 yards. Trail, Tscha- brun and Snyder played great games on the line. Le Ross and Williams and Jack Little were in the center of every play. Kearney backs were invincible in their running attack. Waldman, Theren Smith and Mosser played their last game for the Blue and Gold, since they are members of the 1929 graduating class. Lovell Mosser Trail Football 1928. Page Sixty-four Top Row—Harmon.

A genera! atmosphere of seriousness en- veloped the field from the very start and a do or die spirit which characterized the 1928 squad was maintained to the last of the season. The coaching department consisted of Fred R, Fulmer, who has directed the An- telopes in football for the past six years and his assistant, Glen Spear, All-Missouri Valley fullback. Through their tireless ef- forts they developed one of the strongest offensive teams that has ever represented Kearney College, This team was one of the chief contenders for the conference championship. The schedule was exceedingly hard, and to add to the situation, most of the tough games were away from home. The outlook was anything but promising when it be- came known that but six lettermen were on the squad. Yet our fighting Antelopes came through a successful season ranking higher than even the most optimistic dared to an- ticipate. Among the lettermen were Capt. John- nie” Waldman, ready for his fourth year in the backfield; Robert Pollard, a letter man in 1924 and 1925, a candidate for quarterback; Charles Snyder, a letter man for two previous years at end position; Ar- chie Mason, fullback; Henry Smith, quar- terback; and Max Tschabrun, guard; all lettermen from 1927. Five reserves from the 1927 team also were among the first to report. Ramon Pratt, Sidney Mosser, Theron Smith, James Lovell, and Marcus Morse. This year freshman material was more plentiful than in past years and the squad total reached forty-five by the close of the second week of practice. Among those boys, who stepped right out and made good were: Trail, Wingerd, Tollefsen, Westman, How- ard Williams, Wolcott, LeRoss Williams, Haynes, Boggs, Little, and Wilson. Pape Sivty-five Wilbur Lovell. Wilbur Lovell, captain of the 1929 An- telope basketball tossers, has played his second year with the Blue and Gold team. With his witty thinking, determination, and able ability he was a great asset to his team and a capable man to lead the An- telopes through a hard schedule. The An- telopes won all but four of their games and much honor. Wilbur is one of the highest scorers from guard position in the state. He ended the season with 147 tallies to his credit. X; Success of the 1929 Basketball Squad Although reeling off one of the most difficult schedules of the year on the maples, the Kearney State Teachers Col- lege hung up one of its best records on the court during the 1928-29 season, win- ning fourteen of the eighteen games played. Three of the games lost were to out- state Iocs, the lone conference affair dropped, being to Peru in a game played on the latter’s floor for championship of the Nebraska Inter-Collegiate Athletic as- sociation. The Antelopes have lost but one conference game in the last two years. Aside from Peru, the Colorado Teach- ers, Tarkio Mo., and Wyoming university hold victories over Coach Fred R. Fulmer’s Blue and Gold warriors. The Antelopes amassed 679 points in the eighteen games and compiled an aver- age of nearly thirty-eight points per game to their opponents twenty-seven. A season average of .777 was made by winning four- teen of this year’s games. Dusek finished the season by crowning himself with 170 points to his credit. Capt. Wilbur Lovell, although holding down a guard station throughout the season, ended up in second place with bis 147 points. Kisling, the other forward, and Wolcott center, finished in third and fourth posi- tion with 136 and 129 tallies respectively. Dusek, Lovell, Kisling and Wolcott, Kear- ney’s scoring four horsemen,” accounted for 582 of the teams 679 points. Meyers, Williams, and Pollard, fought a hard game at guard and to them much of the credit is due. A Page Si.vty-Stfvdn Personnel of the 1929 Basketball Team. •3 Frederick Meyer.

The usual unfavorable weather was encountered early in the sea- son but that failed to lessen the enthusiasm of the large squad of men who worked out each night regardless of the wind, snow or rain. The high lights of the season were the winning of seven medals at the Hastings Relays in the college class, the winning of the quadrangular meet held in Grand Several new records were set by mem- bers of the 1928 team. Probably the most remarkable were those set in the distance runs by Lydic, new pole vault record set by Raue and Dusek and the new low' hurdle record set by Lucas. Carskadon set new records in the 100 yard dash and broad jump. He also clipped a fraction off his own record in the 440. Raue splintered the high jump record. Both relay records Track Letter men. Frank Lydic. Frank Lydic went through the season undefeated in the mile and two mile runs. His remarkable running in all meets brings him out as one of the greatest distance runners in the middle west. Frank Dusek. Dusek was another valuable man. He never failed to place and great things are expected of this blond haired athlete in the future. Ramond Raue. Ramond did great work in the pole vault and high jump, setting new records in each.

The annual invitation track and field meet for high schools was the most suc- cessful in years. Ideal weather and an ideal crack greeted the “high” athletes and thir- teen new records were made. Gothenburg high school won class A” honors. Mason City high annexed the class ftB” championship. H. Barnes, of Goth- enburg, was awarded the trophy for the highest number of individual points won in Class A. Lambert, the racing ace of Kearney, annexed three new records for the 1929 athletes to contend with. The class “A” relay was won by Kear- ney high school. Class B” relay by Mason City. And the Junior high school relay by Hastings Junior high. Kearney high took second in class “A and Fairfield high took second in class “B.” P.iK« Seventy-four S. Hanley. ! . Lydie� O, Walts. The Antelope Cr The fall term of 1928 brought in revue a new letter sport for the Kearney An- telopes, cross country running. Although it was the first attempt in this sport, Kear- ney produced a team which went through the season without a defeat. As a result of the tryouts Lydic, Watts, and Hanley were selected for the Ante- lope's cross country team. Captain Lydic needs no introduction to the followers of the Antelope sports as a long distance runner. He not only cook first in all the cross country races but is the honored record holder for three dist- ance runs. Orlie Watts, who holds the half mile record at the Kearney invitation high school meet, is now training with the college An- telopes. He is a remarkable runner and did much to help the cross country team win. oss Country Team. Considerable credit is due Stewart Han- ley, a willing and noble fighter in all his races. The first race of the season was with Wesleyan on the local track. The track was quite heavy, due to a downpour of rain just preceding the race. However, with Lydic placing first. Watts fourth, and Hanley forcing Drake, of Wesleyan, back to sixth place the Antelopes won by a one point margin. The second race of the season was pitted against the Broncos, of Hastings. The Broncos ran a game race but were forced to take a ten to eleven drubbing by die fleer footed Antelopes. The third and final scalp for the An- telopes was die defeat of the Broncos on Hastings own track. The Kearney boys again proved their supremacy by winning first, fourth, and fifth places, Lydic, Watts and Hanley. Page ScvLTiiy.fivt 'p ■— , I - Wearers of the “K. Track 1928. Jay Lucas, Cape.

I n Kearney the age old tradition that a successful man or woman must be phys- ically fit, intellectually keen, and morally alert is practiced and the girls of the school are not lacking in physical fitness. The department of physical education for women at Kearney State Teachers, though still in its infancy, promises to be outstanding in the middle west. With the new swimming pool, the completely equipped gymnasium,, track, tennis courts, and sports field, the women of the col- lege are not lacking the tools with which to work. An average of two hundred girls each quarter are enrolled in gymnastics and study regular floor work, apparatus, stunts, ?nd sports. There are usually from seventy five to one hundred girls taking swimming. The nation-wide interest in physical edu- cation has opened an almost unlimited field ior young women. The major in physical education in this school leads to a bachelor of science degree. The girls of the de- partment have organized a P. E. M. club which is composed of only those who ex- pect to teach physical education. Swimming at Kearney is not limited to rummer days but continues throughout the winter months. Its popularity is indicated by the crowded pool on recreation days. Fancy diving and the more complicated strokes are taught in the advanced classes and Red Cross life saving emblems are issued after one hundred hours of work in the pool and a satisfactory examination. Red Cross work is given not only to aid girls in enjoying personal safety in water, but also to be able to help others in dis- tress. Grace and poise are taught by means of dancing classes which include eurythmics, ballet, technique, clogging, and folk danc- ing. Let us not always say, Spite of this flesh today I strove, made head, gained ground upon the whole!1 As the bird wings and sings, Let us cry, s,All good things Are ours, nor soul helps flesh more now Than flesh helps soul.” From Rabbi Ben Ezra. —Robert Browning. i ( ( Page Severny •nine l I Training School Football When the call for football was issued last fall at the Training School, approx- imately twenty-two boys reported to Coach Zeigcl for practice. Two weeks of this practice and competition reduced the num- ber on the squad to some fourteen or fif- teen members, and it was from this group of players that the Junior Antelopes built a team. The schedule for the year also offered competition of a much more difficult type than ever before, Tr is to be noted that the teams played during the season of 1928 (with one exception) were first teams, whereas during previous years the schedule has been frequently well filled with the reserve teams of nearby towns. The fact that this year first teams were played meant the playing of a much bet- ter type of football even though games might be won or lost. The football scores of the season were as follows: Overton-Kearney 6 0 Lkch f ield-Kearney 6 0 Elwood-Kearney 0 0 Minden-Kearney — 43 0 Shelton-Kearney 7 20 Mason City-Kearney — 37 0 G. L (Reserves)-Kearney 16 6 Among the list of regular players sev- eral deserve special mention. Orcutt, Aus- tin, Browitt, and Skinner played in every quarter of each of the seven games. All of these hoys showed fight and determina- tion. Special credit goes to the plucky cap- tain, Skinner, who was responsible for wonderful defense from his position at right end, who played in every minute ol every quarter, and who urged his men on at all times, win or lose. The following named men played suffi- cient amount of time to be credited with earning a letter: W. Widner, A. Wagner, C. Orcutt, Wm. Austin, D. Browitt, R. Widner, G. Skinner, D. Lizer. We must remember that a successful season denotes more chan games won or lost. It means playing a game squarely; it means cooperation and teamwork; it means growth of school spirit and abid- ing in training rules. Thus from the standpoint of games won or lost, perhaps the season was not so glorious, but never- theless lessons were learned that count the same as victories. Track Season. When Coach Anderson issued the call for track athletes about twenty trainers donned the spikes and set out to start train- ing for the season. Several old boys were back and along with the new ones should make a formidable showing in the com- ing meets. The men who reported for practice are: Guy Skinner, Keesman, Bingle, D. Bass, Allen, Butts, R. Widner, W. Widner, Austin, E. Bass, and Hoover. Of these boys Dorman Bass and Guy Skinner have made the best showing. They both garnered points in the college inter- class meet. Bass placed first in both dashes and Skinner tied for second in the pole vault. Allen made a very impressive show- ing in the mile and the two mile runs and should make an exceptional runner in later years. Bingle and Bass in the high jump, and Keesman, R. Widner, and W. Widner in the weights should be able to annex some points for the Trainers. The outlook is very bright and this should be the Trainers’ greatest season on the cinders.

The members of this organization con- sist of students recommended from the Biology, Earth Science, Physical Science, Home Economics and the Mathematics Departments, as well as each faculty member in these respective departments. Eighty new members were admitted into the organization this year. The purpose of the academy is to create and promote any intelligent interest in science and mathematics by way of the opportunities afforded by the study of scientific advancement. The time of meeting is the third Tues- day of each month at 6:45 p. m. The programs this year have been un- usually interesting as may be seen from the following resume of the programs: Discussion of the Constitution by Stan- ley Kauer. Talk on “Clocks and Watches”—Evelyn Hehnke. History of the Organization—Miss Lud- den. Talk on “Rise of Knowledge of Heredi- Ly”—Ora Russell. Illustrated Lecture on “Visual Educa- tion”-—Miss Ludden.

This is accom- plished by having weekly devotional meet- ings, These meetings are contributed to by faculty members, students and outside speakers. The secondary purpose of the Y. W. C A. is to sponsor such social activities as will embody clean, wholesome enjoyment and true recreational value. After the membership campaign last fall, during which over two hundred mem- bers were secured, the annual membership banquet was held on October 17, 1928. This furthered the feeling of good will and fellowship among the girls. There were also other activities spon- sored by the Y. W. C. A. An “All School Tea” was given in the fall for all students and faculty. On December 7 the Y. W. sponsored the annual Holiday Festival. The proceeds from this were applied to the Y. W. C. A. loan fund. Our loan fund has made it possible for eleven girls to con- tinue in school this year. On Wednesday before the holidays the Nativity Play was presented in convocation. In March the Y. W. C. A, assisted the Y. M. C. A. in bring- ing the Christian Education team, composed of John Elder, Charles Corbett, Henry Gossard, and Paul Guthrie, to our college. Y. W. C. A. Officers.

The organization tries to hold a social gathering from time to time to promote fellowship among the members of the de- partment, These meetings are usually ban- quets at which speakers from industries in the city as well as from the school are in- vited to speak. The constitution calls for the promotion of general educational aims rather than the special. Any person enrolled in the depart- ment or who shows an interest in the pro- motion of industrial education is eligible for membership in the organization. The officers, sponsors and charter mem- bers are continually emphasizing the gen- eral aims of education. Other school ac- tivities must not be neglected by the club members. Although education may he spe- cialized it is always a joint process which requires cooperative forces of the special with die general field. One is nor educated if he is confined entirely to a special field. This fact being recognized, the club con- siders education in many fields as one of its existing problems. P.iK«e Eighly.foiir Y. M.

The organiza- tion is steadily growing stronger and bet- ter as the work of the club progresses. The dub began its work this year by sponsoring a Textile Exhibit in November. This consisted of two interests. Choice tex- tiles were loaned by the faculty, the sig- nificance of which was interpreted by the students of the textile class. Hand woven linens from Berea, Kentucky and Japanese prints from E. T. Shuira’s shop on Fifth avenue were offered for sale. On May first the annual dinner of the club is given in the Home Economics din- ing room. The objectives of this club are to broaden the interests of its members in home eco- nomics as a profession, and to bring the girls into closer association as friends. From time to time short talks are given by out- side talent and by members of the club on subjects pertaining to home making. At the close of the meetings the members of a committee display their skill in act- ing as hostesses by serving light refresh- ments. Any one especially interested in home economics is entitled to join the or- ganization. The project for this year is to better the appearance of the practice dining room. Page Eighty-six XI PHI. T.

During this year a special study has been made of old Fort Kearney and of the pioneer life surrounding ir. Official war department blueprints have been examined and compared with pictures of the old fori now in possession of the Social Science department. Manuscripts by pioneers who actually saw Fort Kearney have been studi- ed. One meeting was devoted to round table discussion led by old settlers who had visited the fort. One of the enjoyable customs of the club lias been the holding of its meetings in the homes of the members, thus provid- ing opportunity for better acquaintance. Page Eighty-eight ZIP CLUB.

It is sponsored by Mr. Calvin T. Ryan, the national historian of this or- ganization. The purpose of this national fraternity is to promote scholarship in the English language and literature with special em- phasis on creative writing. The membership is limited to twelve active members. Eligibility is based upon high scholarship, number of hours work in English, and moral character. Each candidate for membership must be voted in by the unanimous vote of the body, and receive the approval of the sponsor. IX Although Sigma Tau Delta is primarily a student organization, it is open to faculty members who meet the literary and acade- mic requirements. At present Miss Craw- ford, who holds a sixth degree, is the only honorary member. The charter members are: Lucille Cam- eron, Elsie Coen, My no Gengenbach, Esther Gruber, Raymond Jones, Meree Haase, Edith Spieth, Julia Shostrom, Ar- villa Temple, Irene Thorell, Kenneth Wa- terman, and Carol Wilson. Later initiates have been Eunice Arnold and Gerda Nel- son. Page Ninety-oili? ORBATE, I; Andersen G. West, C, Hoslrnm. 1, ThorelL Mr, J. F. Matthews. R, Ugly. R. Jones, S, Wingcrd, L, Albrecht.

March 12—Nebraska Central, March 15—Pi Kappa Delta Provincial Debates. The Kearney State Teachers College groups of debaters for the 1929 season were kept very busy. They participated in seven inter-collcgiate dual debates and con- tested for honors in Pi Kappa Delta Pro- vincial debates. The state question was: Resolved, chat the present jury system of the United States should be abolished,” and it gave ample opportunity for the teams on cither side to do an unusual amount of investigation and preparation. The college teams gave evidence of a thorough knowl- edge of the question and made a splendid record for the season. George West and Sheldon Wingcrd at- tended the Province of the Platte (Colo- rado and Nebraska) annual competition. They debated on both sides of the national question, which was different from our state question, and reached the semi-finals. They won from Colorado State Teachers College of Gunnison, from Doane College of Crete, and from Colorado Teachers College, of Greeley. They lost a split- decision debate to Hastings College, who proved to be the winners of the Province championship. The teams were as follows: Affirmative— Elmer Andersen Calvin Bostrom Irene Thorell Roland Egly Louis Albrecht Negative— Leonard Christensen Raymond Jones George West She Idon Wimgerd On the whole the season was a very lively and satisfactory one.

Only those who have won honors in debate or oratory are eligible for membership, thus there can never be a large number of active members in any one college. Three faculty members, Mr. John Mat- thews, Mr, Calvin T. Ryan, and Mr. Ar- nold Trotier are members of Pi Kappa Delta. The purpose of the organization is to arouse interest in debate and oratory among the undergraduates, and to sponsor the forensic activities of the college. Raymond Jones, Calvin Bostrom, and George West were a%varded membership during the fall quarter. Kearney’s present inter-collegiate debaters are pledged and will soon be in- itiated. Zeta Chapter sent two representatives, George West and Sheldon Wingerd, to the annual provincial conference and contest at Nebraska Wesleyan, March 14, 15, and 16, 1929. Pa c Ninety-three ASPASIANS.

Maxine Lippincott Sergeants-at-Arms The Aspasian Literary Society was or- ganized in November, 1906, for the pur- pose of giving the students more of an op- portunity to take part in extemporaneous speaking, and in literary activities in gen- eral. In the autumn of 1928 there were for- ty-five active members. The meetings of the club are held regu- larly every Thursday evening from seven until eight o’clock. All Aspasians look for- ward to this date for they know there is a very educational as well as social hour in store for them. Very interesting pro- grams consisting of music, games, readings, speeches, debates and discussions have been presented. These have been furnished by committees of five, chosen from the roll, who serve for one month. In this manner each Aspasian has played an important part in bringing to the or- ganization something original and worth- while; and in the meantime developing her own ability to lead, to plan, and to shoul- der responsibility. Thus the nature of this society has made possible valuable educa- tional training wherein the individual learns by doing. The events which took place during the school term of 1928-29 were as follows: Initiation of new members, debates with the Emanons, Hallowe’en and Colonial parties, party at Miss Ludden’s in Decem- ber, and a picnic at the close of the school 4 Pape Ninety.four La Sociedad Espanola promotes social activities for the students of the college who arc interested in Spanish. It gives an opportunity for the students to become ac- quainted with things Spanish and to put into practice in an enjoyable manner some of the information gained in the class- room work. Miss Ethel Hill, the sponsor of this society, enjoyed a summer’s work and travel in Spain and the adjacent coun- tries last summer, so she has given the stu- dents much of profit and enthusiasm from her travel. At one meeting she presented the club with a picture La Catedral y la Giralda,” Seville, Spain, and showed us the many beautiful things she brought from Spain. Ac another meeting Miss Mildred Beadle told the story Los Tres Osos,” better known as The Three Bears;” Miss Edith Ward sang Angela Mia,” and Harvey Churchill and Allen Anderson presented a one-act skit, El Dormilon,” after which games were played and re- freshments served. For our next meeting we plan to have Miss Belle Gleasman, also of the Span- ish Department, tell us of her travels and study in Mexico, and show' us the trophies she collected while there ■■ LATIN CLUB.

It has tried to uphold an attitude of college dignity and to keep pace with the progress of the college. An attempt has been made to inform its readers of present day problems and large advancements in the teaching profession. Not without the valuable assistance of faculty members and of the news writing class did the staff at- tempt to carry out these aims. Two special Antelopes were published this year, one a senior edition, and one an alumni edition. Miss Grace Milton assisted with the senior edition and Miss Esther Krcwson edited the alumni edition. Miss Krewson edited two ocher editions also. The Antelope this year has been slighcly reduced in size from what it was last year. The columns are now the same width as the columns in the local daily paper. This change was made to accomodate the printers, A file of all the Antelopes has been kept this year and an effort made to col- lect Antelopes of past years. Although a file was kept in the library, it was thought desirable to keep one in the Antelope office also. Page Nincly-eigfit CATHOLIC CLUB OFFICERS. Anna Ryan, Secretary; Mr. John F. Matthews.

The total salaries earned in one year by teachers who secured their position through the aid of the Kearney College Teachers Placing Bureau amounted recently to more than 235,000. The services of the Placing Bureau are to be had without cost by all persons who have ever registered in the Teachers Col- lege. Neither does the Bureau make any charges of Boards of Education who secure a teacher, a principal, or a superintendent through its efforts. The importance of the work of the Teachers Placing Bureau is better realized when it is understood that once a student registers with it his credentials are always available for Boards of Education inter- ested in bis candidacy. Each year many superintendents and boards of education call on the Bureau for the credentials of former students as well as of students in residence who have failed to register with the Bureau. It is readily seen that students whose credentials are not available when asked for by employing school authorities are handicapped in securing positions for which they are applicants. For this reason the Bureau is exceedingly anxious that every student register with it. The motto of the Placing Bureau is: A satisfactory teacher satisfactorily placed is the best advertisement for a State Teachers College.” Won't you help the Bureau to live up to its motto by cooper- ating with it to the fullest extent and by urging your fellow students seeking teach- ing positions to register with it?

Kearney was the only teachers college of Nebraska repre- sented at this meeting. Each year the council publishes a stu- dent handbook which is placed in the hands of every student at the beginning of the school year in the fall. This handbook contains much valuable information for the students. It contains the constitution of the Student Government Association, traditions of the school, school yells and songs, a list of the organizations and extra- curricular activities of the school.

Spieth Literary Editor Page One Hundred One The Romantic Age. This is a delightful comedy in three acts. The first act takes place in the home of Mr. Knowles, during the evening. The sec- ond act takes place in a beautiful dale in the woods, during the early morning. The third act is the same as act one, only it Ls early afternoon, Tins play was first presented to the pub- lic under the direction of Mr. Arthur Woutner at the Comedy Theatre, London, on October 18, 1920. In 1922 it was pre- sented at the Comedy Theatre, New York, by Hugh Ford and Frederick Stanhope. The play is a take-off on the Romantic Age. The heroine (Theresa Grantham) wants to go hack to the age of knights and ladies.11' She is not contented with the Pleasant, good at games, dependable, not very clever, perhaps, but making enough money, sort of fellow of today.” This she portrays during the first act when she says to Bobby (Stanley Kauer), Oh, Bobby, you’re so—so ordinary!” Her dream comes true for a short time when she meets the hero (Harold Luse), who is on his way to a fancy dress dance at Collingham. They immediately fall in love with each other. The hero promises to come for her that afternoon, and take her away with him. All this is shattered, however, when she meets him in the afternoon in ordinary clothing. Her outlook on romance is turned and she is embittered toward the lover for deceiving her. Th's is only temporary, for she finally sees the folly of her outlook on romance and is won by the hero. --- Page One Hundred Three Bosn’s Bride. To an audience of nearly one thousand, the operetta. Bom’s Bride, under the di- rection of Professor L. H. Diercks, was presented with even greater success than the Serenade” of last year. Both produc- tions were of the highest type. From the moment that the baton was lifted, and the orchestra struck the first note, the audience enjoyed every feature of the entertainment. The snappy entrance of rite sailors in rollicking seaman fashion soon enrolled all the listeners in their merry making and jest. None the less impressive was the en- try of the chorus of girls, all happy, blithe- some, and gay in their attractive costumes of black and white in striking contrast to their leaders who were attired in gay and brilliant colors. The melodies sung by the chorus were pleasing and appealing, the dances espe- cially graceful, and the grouping in all scenes natural and picturesque. The scen- ery and . lighting effects gave added splen- dor to a very alluring setting. Herald Stark, taking the part of the Bos’ll, ably led his company to victory through the dignified and realistic rendi- tion of his role. He met with poise and ease many difficult situations. From the moment Viola Youngquisc, as Dorothy, walked down the stage to her first entry, the audience was aware of her mastery and charm. Her voice was pleas- ing, her manner attractive, her costume beautiful and her confidence marked. Miss Zelda Bahr as Kitty Adair”' soon won her place in the hearts of her listeners through the quality of her voice and the shnplicity and sincerity of her acting. Raymond Jones as lead of the comedy, taking the part of Toni Tappe, did much to add life and spirit to the operetta. He turned the tide in many strenuous situa- tions. If there were any among the audience who failed to he amused by Walter Cle- land and Leah Harris as Tim Shannan and Mrs. Brown or by the conspicuous poses of Phillip Carlson, they were not noticed.—Miss Wirt, Page One Hundred Four Symphony Orchestra. An organization which appeals to all Kearney music lovers is the College Sym- phony Orchestra. It was organized four years ago by Professor R. C. Rogers, head of the Music Department. Under his able and inspiring direction, it has grown in membership from the original fifteen to approximately forty-five. Not only in membership, however, has it increased, but in the number and kinds of instruments. The string section has been completed and augmented by the addition of violas, more violins, cellos, and basses, a new bass having been purchased just this year. A year ago, an oboe was added to the wood-wind section, which, with the bassoon, purchased a year previous, com- pletes the wood-wind section. Experienced and talented players have been added to the brass-wind section that it might con- tinue being complete in instrumentation. An able and capable drummer presides over the percussion section, with the tym- pani as his important instruments. One of the most outstanding additions to the or- chestra, however, is that of a gold harp which was purchased last year. The most important advance in the orchestra, musically, since its inception, has been in the type of music performed. Its members have so grown in technique and understanding of musical literature that they are now able to perform symphonies, symphonic poems, and standard concert overtures with interpretation rarely heard outside large cities. This is due to the leadership of our conductor, Mr. Rogers, who came to us with a musical vision which has never before been equalled in the his- tory of our department. The orchestra has given two concerts thus far this year: one home concert, and one out-of-town engagement at North Platte. This trip was a memorable one in the history of the organization as well as in the lives of its members. The weather was inclement but, AIPs well that ends well.” Another home concert is scheduled for later in the spring with quality, not difficulty, its keynote. The orchestra has accomplished much in its short life, but much is still expected of it. Pai:( One Hundred Five =r 3 11 istorical Fort Kearney. The sice of Fort Kearney, which is to become the fifth Nebraska state park, is a place of peculiar interest. Historically it is one of the important spots in the state. Thru it the great streams of westward mov- ing emigrants passed on their way to the gold fields of California, to the mecca of the Mormons in Utah, to Oregon, to other places in the great unknown wilderness be- yond the Missouri river. The fort was established in 1848 for die protect on of those traversing die Oregon trail on their way to the coast. The first party of whites known co have journeyed along any section of what was to become the Oregon trail was the Ascorian expedi- tion of 1811-12. Gradually the road was broken completely thru the wilderness and during the forties, fifties and sixties the trail was lined with ox-team covered wagons, creaking slowly toward their distant goals. From 1848 until 1871, when it was aban- doned, the men who garrisoned the fort protected the p oncers on their way co the coast. With the coming of the Union Pa- cific the Oregon trail, having served its pur- pose, became neglected and grass grown and the fort which had watched over it was also abandoned. A year or two ago the Fort Kearney me- morial association of Buffalo and Kearney counties was formed to purchase the forty acres that comprised the old parade grounds, the site of the historic fort and the earth- work entrenchments. When the legislature convened early this year the site was offered to the state as a gift, the resolution being introduced by Representatives J. D. Saund- ers and Fred A. Mueller of Buffalo and Ernest Peterson of Kearney county. The bill was signed by Governor Weaver in March. The first Fort Kearney in Nebraska was established at Nebraska City during the winter of 1846-47, when a log block house was built and occupied by a company of troops. This fort was named after General Stephen Watts Kearny, conqueror of New Mexico and Cal'forma during the Mexican war. Not long after Secretary of War March gave orders that a fort be erected some- where on the Oregon route at some distance from the Missouri river.” Lteut. W. P. Page One Hundred Six z GENERAL PHIL KEARNEY. Woodbury left Fort Kearney ar Nebraska City, Sept. 23, 1847, with severity mounted Missouri volunteers to locate this new fort, which was to protect emigrants and preserve peace among the Indians. A place was ex- amined near where Central City now stands, hut the Platte at that point was found too deep for fording. The next point to be surveyed was a place on the river known as Carson’s crossing, and there the detachment began the task of making a fort. When the Platte rose out of its hanks and swept away the partially completed sod huts the band moved on to seek another location. After a tedious trip Woodbury selected a spot six miles.southeast of the present city of Kear- ney, 197 miles from the other Fort Kearney. The new fort was at first named Fort Childs, hut it was rechristened to take the name of Phil Kearney, Indian fighter and frontiers- man. The fort was a dull place for a few months. Then came news of the discovery of gold in California, Men began to pour into the fort on their way to the coast. Soon the daily overland stage was established, bringing further diversion to the lonely gar- rison. In the caravans going west with the object of settlement were women and girls as well as men, and nightly the scrape of fiddle bows could be heard as soldiers and gold seekers, frontiersmen and their women- folks danced to the tune of Buffalo Gals’ and O, Suzzanna.” Fort Kearney was never attacked in force by the Indians. When the soldiers wished, to attack the warring tribes they had to go out over the prairies to find them. There were a few squabbles but only a very few lives lost, and that on the Indian side. In its later years many buffalo hunts were staged at the fort to entertain visiting not- ables. In addition to the fame the fort has won thru the migration over the Oregon trail and in connection with the Indians it gained con- siderable prominence at one time as the proposed ste of the capito I of the United States, when the removal of the capital from Washington to the Mississippi, valley was the subject of agitation. Moses H. Syden- ham was the leader in this project. P R? One Hundred Seven ; |fjl92 9 ||D Z Rural Training Schools. The college is fortunate to have a group of seven rural schools affiliated with it for the purpose of providing observation and practice teaching. The affiliated system is under the direction of the rural depart- ment, and affords training for prospective rural teachers. Every typical situation known to die Nebraska rural school system is represented by the affiliated schools. There is the one teacher school of ordinary building, the most modern and complete one-teacher school, the two-teacher-ten-grade school, and the village school of twelve grades. The system is distinctive in that the people employed as critic teachers are ca- pable of directing student teaching in an able and effective manner. Thus the most common and serious objection to practice teaching in rural schools is met. About seventy-five prospective rural teachers have during the year had advantage of this ex- perience of practice teaching under com- petent rural teachers and critics. One hundred fifty have been given two obser- vations each week for one quarter during the year. In addition to first class day schools there are various school and community activities of a superior quality. There arc four Parent-Teachers Associations, one community band, one school orchestra, Sunday schools and the like. Many of die schools are real community centers. Few teachers colleges have a more natural situation in which to introduce prospective teachers to problems of rural life, rural education, and to rural teaching. If the above facts are worthy of men- tion it is because of the consensus of opin- ion that teacher-training should be given in typical situations and according to the principles of teacher placement. Contact with the affiliated school system gives to the prospective rural teacher proper and definite mental patterns with regard to rural school organization and procedure. —R. W. Powell.

Kearney State Teachers College is planning one of its characteristic, particularly strong summer schools for 1929, Not only does the attendance of students promise large, but the course of study is one of the richest offered in the his- tory of the institution. As has been the case for a number of years, the strongest and best instructors of the faculty are to be on regular duty during the summer session. In addition to these, a long list of splendid educators has been added to the regular faculty in an effort to make the extra-curricular offering the richest of any time in the past. Dr. P. W. Dyke- ma of Columbia University is to be with us on June 12. Dr. R. W. Selvidge of the University of Missouri is to be with us June 17. Dr. David Snedden of Columbia University is to be with us on June 10. Dr. M. S, Pittman, Rural Edu- cation. expert from Ypsilanti, Michigan, is to be with us July 1. Others are to be added in the near future. In addition to this a splendid line of purely recreational entertainment is to be presented. All former students of summer school are cordially urged to attend and partake in the feast of good things that is to be spread for your delectation. Aspiring high school graduates who expect to enter the educational field can do nothing better than begin their training by attending this strong summer school.

The Alumni Association of the State Normal School and Teachers College was organized in 1906. Since that time it has greatly increased in size. There are now two thousand three hundred twenty-nine mem- bers who have received the Junior College Diploma, three hundred thirty-four who have been granted the Bachelor of Arts Degree, twenty-seven who have been grant- ed the Bachelor of Science Degree, and two who have received the Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree. In 1927 the Alumni Association adopted articles of incorporation. The purpose of the association is to promote the influence of the Nebraska State Normal School and Teachers’ College at Kearney; to increase the number of its students and graduates; to develop plans for the usefulness of the College Placing Bureau and the wel- fare of the alumni.

The Alumni Association, with the aid of the Xi Phi fraternity, is sponsoring the Harriet Sutton Memorial Pipe Organ Fund. This fund has been steadily in- creasing and as a result of the efforts of the Association, students will in a few years see the organ in reality. Although our college is still in its youth and is a teacher’s college, its alumni may be found in practically every state in the union, and in several foreign countries en- gaged in many professions. In June of each year the association has a day of Homecoming. The classes grad- uating twenty years and ten years ago are special guests. The chief event of the day is the alumni dinner when members of the association feast on good things to eat plus fond memories. ALUMNI 1909.

Even with the permission of this fresh- man we hesitate to publish his letters. If they did not tell so much news of the school we would not think of being so ill mannered. Do not read this letter if it hurts your conscience to do so.” Sept. 12, 1928. Dear Papa, I certainly was lonesome the first two days I was here. The city is so big, the halls in the school building are so long, and the professors all look so wise that I cannot tell you just how I felt. I soon found that the professors did not know any more than I. They just looked wiser. The first day all of us students were put through a process called registration. I shall describe it to you as best I can. We students first went to the Gymnasium door where we each received a free admission ticket. We had to stand outside in the hoc sun for about two hours because the tickets were not any good until then. I didn’t mind that because I really didn’t expect much for nothing here. When we finally entered the Gym, we passed a table where a booklet of cards was handed to us. Some got white cards, and some got colored ones. They told me that all students start with white cards. I don’t know just what those students had done to deserve colored cards, but from their looks I would guess it was something bad. You needn’t worry about me, Papa, mine will always be clean and white. Calendar. I filled out one or two of the cards which I imagine was one of those standardized tests we read about in the catalogue. I passed the test all right. Of course, you knew that I would. After that all of the people at the tables smiled at me. You should have seen my adviser smile and shake my hand when he found I was to be his advisee. I don’t know what an ad- viser is for because you know you gave me all the advice I would need until I came home again. Anyway, this adviser helped me to fill out the rest of the cards I had, I don’t guess that any student knows enough to fill out those ocher cards alone, and sometimes the advisers don’t know, I don’t understand what could be so hard about them. After this we were cold to stand in line after line where our cards were shuffled and more given to us. Once the people who shuffled the cards were not going to let me into a class. I went right to the in- structor of the class about it, and she was so pleased to think that I was in one of her classes that she wrote me a special per- mit. I do not know why we were made to stand in line so long unless it was to test our understandings and our patience. I nearly lost my patience once and came pretty nearly telling one of those people at the table what I thought of the whole business. But when I got there, she smiled at me in such a way that I just had to smile back. I thought that if chose people who were given colored cards could hold their temper I could too. After working all day, I finally got registered. I would like to tell you about my classes, but it is eight-thirty now, and you told me not to stay up late at night. Write me a long letter telling me all about mamma and brother and our cow, Fanny. Good Night, Your Son. September 13 (Thursday).

This page is to introduce you to the section of the annual com- monly called humor, or in plain language, jokes. Their specific purpose is to lift all burdens from the mind and cause the lips to part gently into a smile. Some of them may cause real horse-laughs while others may produce a degenerated type of smile called a frown. It is our aim to please everybody. If you are an under- graduate, and the preceding pages have appealed to you as being extremely funny, you had better indulge with caution; if at all. in the following pages. You might become foundered on humor like some people have on bananas, and never again be able to see a joke. Try a few of the first ones and if they do not appeal to you leave the rest alone. You may be in the Hrst stages of the condition mentioned above. The seniors, who have given their moral, mental and physical support to this volume, will find the following sec- tion very helpful. To them the preceding pages are memories of times which cannot he repeated. The humor should serve to refresh them and we know it will not fail. Who ever heard of a senior who could not see a joke? If, after reading this you feel physically able to indulge in some hearty, exaggerated smile, we wish you good luck. We hope there will be enough of you so that there will be Miles and miles of Smiles.” Patif One Hundred Twenty-nine Class History. On a certain memorable day in Septem- ber 1925, Miss Marion Smith, Mr. M. S. Pate, and a heterogeneous group of fresh- men met to organize the now famous class of 1929. The quantity and quality of the group promised much. With three hun- dred thirteen students, nearly one-half of the entire student body, the class looked to the future. This class was active in the school affairs. Four freshmen. Ruby Bowen, John Lancaster, Jack Wheelock, and Allyn Han thorn, represented the class on the de- bating squad. Both of the young women yell leaders were freshmen. The class shone in athletics, for six of the sixteen letter men were from the class of 1929. Over half of the members of the glee clubs belonged to the freshman class. The ”freshies” even worked up enough courage to publish the Antelope in February, printing with green ink to indicate its origin. Occasionally the class met by itself for social events. Picnics were very popular so the class journeyed to the State Industrial School lake for one. No casualties were re- corded, and every one had a good time. When the class of 1929 returned to K. S. T. C, for its sophomore year the ranks showed a few vacant places but the class still contained a large portion of the school. Publication of the Antelope and taking charge of one convocation hour were carried out with more dignity and serenity than in the previous year. The usual round of parties was given with much pep. The sophomores especially enjoyed the initiation of tile new freshmen. They kept eternal vigilance on the freshmen, even calling for a reckoning day when red paint and paddles were used for all misdemeanors made by the lower class. The sophomores were active in many organizations. Hazel Panek, a sophomore, won first place in the popularity contest. The juniors returning to K. S. T. C. started to make more class history by hav- ing a picnic and a dance during the first quarter. This peppy group worked and played industriously. They were active in all organizations. The chief event of the year was the Junior-Senior banquet at the Fort Kearney Hotel. They did not allow the seniors to have many advantages be- cause the juniors cook a sneak day and went to Grand Island for a half holiday. Theresa Grantham and Clarence Lindahl, juniors, won first places in the popularity contest this year. The group of students meeting for their final year in this school were serious, in- dustrious, and loyal to their school and class. The seniors, Mr. Pace, and Patsy, Mr. Pate’s dog, went to White Bridge Park for a picnic early in the fall. Every- one had a good rime. No one worried about late hours because Mr. Pate and Patsy had a permit from the dean to stay out late that night. At a gruesome skit in convoca- tion, the seniors showed the other classes the dire result of failing to buy an annual early. Josephine Martin wanted to be a senior so that she could go to the Senior Sneak Day; consequently, she joined the senior class a few weeks early. She came to the Washington party and reported that she wished to remain a senior. Miss Smith and Mr. Pate have been true and sympa- thetic to the class of 1929. On the thirty- first of May the class ends four years of fun and work. May the next class enjoy the trip as much as this class has enjoyed it.

Ten years have come and gone and Mrs. Trotier, wife of the present librarian, has found that our ’29 class has scattered over the whole world. Mrs. Trotier herself is well known in the society circles of Kear- ney, Nebraska. In Who’s Who Among North American Authors for 1939, page 1012 you will find this article. Mildred Overmire; b. Kearney, Nebr. June 1900, d. of M. E. Overmire; Educ. in Odessa public schools and Kear- ney High and Normal Schools. Unmarried. Author: Games and Songs for Little Folks, Written Singing Games. Secretary of Cleve- land Teachers’ Association. Office: Har- vard School; Home 768 Parkwood Drive, Cleveland, Ohio. We met another of our 29 girls in the person of Mrs. D. T. Watterman, of Long- pole, Nebr., who is noted for her prize flock of White Pekin ducks. Her flock took the state prize last year for laying golden eggs. Mrs. Watterman was formerly Ada Coyner of Keystone, Nebr. She and her husband reside on a ranch near Longpole. Remember John Waldmann? Well, John N Page One Hundred Thirty-four : d ■v is head football coach at Nebraska Uni- versity. He will be remembered as the good looking football captain of Kearney. After producing championship teams for several of the larger high schools and a college he was the choice of all for the Nebraska po- sition. He has lived up to all expectations by producing a team this year that won not only the conference but also the myth- ical National Championship. We all remember Theresa Grantham. Theresa, now Mrs. A. J. Stevenson, is the wife of an Industrial Magnate of Denver, Colorado. Mrs. Stevenson is well known in Denver society circles. She also is active in child welfare and charity work throughout that city. Get out your copy of Who’s Who in Literature for 1939 and turn to page 629.

Contributes to Ladies Home Journal, Country Life in America, Sun (N. Y.), Hindustan Review, Modern Review (Calcutta), East and West (Bom- bay), Quarterly Review and many others. Address: Cleve Hall, Champion Hill, S. E., England. We have all heard of Elvira Knutson, who is now national treasurer Y. W. C. A. The gretaer part of the time she is at home in New York City. Elvira was always known for her ability to handle money. When you tune in on the Minneapolis Symphony tonight the conductor’s voice will sound familiar. Harvey Churchill is conductor of the Minneapolis Symphony Orchestra. Soon after leaving Kearney he began playing the bass viol in the Omaha Symphony. He showed such unusual talent for conducting that he soon became con- ductor of the Omaha orchestra. Under his leadership it became nationally famous. Last year he was offered his present posi- tion. Music critics say the orchestra is now one of the world’s greatest. In the last Nebraska Blue Book for 1939, page 257 is a picture of Mrs. W. L. Strom- burg, formerly Pauline Coyner. In the bi- ographical section, page 259, I found: Mrs. W. L. Stromburg, rep. from 9th District v- x New Central Grocery AND Market Phone 2104 For Prompt Delivery Quality Goods at the Same Price.

Educated in public schools. Supt, of Sharp county schools 6 years. Member of Lutheran Church. Address, Charlo, Nebr. However, not all of our class have stayed in the United States. Just received a let- ter from Nome, Alaska. Nome, Alaska, April 1, 1939. Dear President of our 1929 Class: Last week, during journalism class, in looking through the papers of various col- leges of the United States I came upon an Antelope. I read the list of alumni for this year and found my name among them. Under my direction the students here edit the Icicle Gazette. I am president of the college here at Nome and incidentally I am teaching women how to make homes in Eskimo Igloo. Hoping to see you all soon, Glenva Stockton, Ph, D. One of our class has stayed on in K. S, T. C. Chelsea Trucks teaches English in the college. Another has remained in Kearney, Hal- lie Dryden has built up a prosperous law business. She transacts business for her hus- band while he eats lunch. Has anyone forgotten Garence Lindahl? Well I think not for Clarence is now chief pilot for the Trans-Continental Airway. He is famous for having set two new air records and for perfecting the fool-proof plane. He has never had an accident and has been praised for his ability by no less a person- age than C. A. Lindbergh, whom he greatly resembles. We hear that Anna Macklin is a dea- coness in Honolulu, Anne was always such a demure girl. Alaska has claimed another of our class. Ruth Collins has been appointed governor of Alaska. Theron Smith is called by “Who’s Who,” the greatest as well as the most versatile of American architects. He has designed every- thing from small houses to the two hun- dred story Coolidge tower in New York City. Theron’s home is at Baltimore, Md. Several of our ’29 class have their names in the Who’s Who. Take down that book for 1939 and turn to page 593 and you will find the following article: Julia Shostrom: writer, teacher. Private teacher in violin and swimming. Contributes to Saturday Evening Post, Smart Set, Re- view of Reviews, New York Times. Clubs: Calif. Women’s Press; California Writers. New York seems to be the favorite home of our well know classmates, Roland Egly is a technical engineer in the General Elec- tric laboratories. His many wonderful im- provements on electrical equipment, his sci- entific discussions in the Scientific Ameri- can and his great new book have all added to his fame. Another year book has been honored by a name we will long remember. In the International Women of 1939,” page 234, you will read: Irene Thorell; General of United Daughters of Confederacy. A noted parliamentarian and speaker before Wo- men’s Clubs. And Allen Anderson has been since the first of the year, editor in chief of the Chi- cago Tribune. He has been in literary and newspaper work since leaving Kearney. Be- sides writing three widely read books, he has written many editorials which have been quoted by leading men throughout the country. This is not at all surprising when we remember the Antelopes Allen used to publish. Ruth Cruit has invented a solution that permanently dyes all hair red ten minutes after the first application. Abbie Lippincott, you all remember her I know, is now Dean of the College of Science, Wisconsin Uni. Abbie is one of the first women to hold an eminent position in the field of science. This fact is not to be wondered at when we recall Abbie’s science grades in K. S, T. C, If you haven’t been reading the Nature Magazine just take a look at the last issue and read Mynn Gengenbach’s latest article on How to Teach Frogs to Croak without Causing a Sore Throat.” This article is the result of much research and is considered very authoritative. Of course you have all heard of how Grace Milton has taken the world by storm as the prima donna of the opera “Carmen,” If you are in Chicago be sure to visit the Art Gallery, You will immediately be shown Page One Hundred TJiirty-sis Eye, Ear, Nose and Throat t t OFFICE: CHASE BUILDING an oil painting of College Life in Nebraska. This world famous picture comes from die brush of one of our own classmates, Stella Churchill. We have a famous musician among our number. In Who’s Who” 1939 we read that Iona Hill is now on a concert tour through India, Russia and China. Remem- ber how Iona used to play for convocation? Another transportation expert has added fame to the ’29 class of K. S. T. C. Elmer Anderson is technical engineer of the great Yelloway Bus system. The new wonderfully improved mammoth busses are largely the creation of his genius. Elmer began as a driver, but showed such knowledge and ability that be rose rapidly to bis present position. Carol Wilson is married to a traveling salesman and lives in Grand Island. We read in Who’s Who, 1939.” Gene- vieve Turner: noted chemist—general man- ager of a sugar beet factory at Buda, Nebr. Lectures extensively. Publications: The Sugar in Your Coffee.” Recreations: Hunt- ing and Trapping. Frank Croissant is director of the school of industrial education at Northwestern University. Critics say that he has made what was once mechanical work, a real art and an exact science. At the same time he has made it much more attractive for high schools and colleges. We read in Who’s Who, 1939” again: Mable Predmore; late Supt- Postal Order Branch, General Postoffice, Jamaica. Re- ceiver and Accountant in General’s office. Retired 1939. Recreation: Indoor sports of all kinds. Jeanette Bruce is now recognized inter- nationally. She invented the Durable Finger Wave but she has forgotten the method. Politics have also claimed some of our noted class members. In the Congressional Directory L939, page 278, we find Andrew McMellun, of Petersburg, Pa,, Secretary of Treasury. Under Secretary in general charge. Miss Dora Cornelius. Address 2026 Perry Placey, Washington, D. C. Marie Rennecker is now president of the Happy Hollow Face Powder Co., of Shel- ton, Nebr.

An actress? Oh, no! Married to a director for whom she writes scenarios. We haven’t forgotten Sidney Mosser. He is now U. S. Senator from Nebraska. Hav- ing taught for several years, he is familiar with the great problems of education. Pearl O’Neal lives on a rabbit farm on the outskirts of Kearney to supply Miss Ludden’s physiology class. She seemed re- ticent when asked how she spent her time. In glancing through the Nebraska Blue Book I noticed that she was on the State Racing Commission. Josephine Martin has fulfilled our ex- pectations. She is now owner and manager of a stock: company, The joe Martin Players.” Would you believe it, Gwen Swift has developed into a noted philosopher. Her latest book is entitled Why Tall Persons Are So Interesting,” Harold Luse is well known to all, being constantly before our eyes as a scar actor who directs his own movie productions. His latest pictures have taken the country by storm. Another of our class has left the U. S, to win fame. Look in the last Who’s Who” in Canada. Wanda Erwin: vice president and manag- ing director of Hampton Manufacturing Co. Manufacturers children’s and ladies’ wear, Montreal. Clarisse Dean has charge of an exclusive shop in Chicago. We visited her last year. She had a Rolls Royce, an apartment, a maid, etc. Receives flowers every day from a millionaire jew who is hopelessly in love with the indifferent Clarisse. Gurda Nelson is mentioned in the Wo- men’s Who’s Who in America, She wrote How College Seniors May Write an Es- say in Fifteen Minutes.” The present Chancellor of the Univer- sity of Nebraska is one of our old class- mates, Stanley Kauer. He gained this eminent position by way of the Academy of Math and Science and Xi Phi. Mrs. Spieth, now chemistry instructor in Nebraska Uni., is noted for her discovery of a dong which will keep one awake dur- ing a dry lecture. All colleges are now using it. Just received a letter from Yellowstone National Park. Dear President of our ’29 Class; Just received your letter in regard to home coming of 1939. I received a letter from Fern Harris a few days ago. She has been in Calcutta for the past seven years as professor of Home Economics in a Uni- versity for Indian women. She is delighted with the plan and intends to take a Zeppe- lin home to join us. Yes, affairs at the park are coming fine. We are already planning for opening day. Being the wife of a national park superin- tendent is quite a job after all. Love to all, Mrs. Helen Ogle Von Zoon. P. S. Was just glancing through the society section of the Sunday New York Times and whose picture should I see but Gladys Milton’s or rather Gladys Stuyvesant and her twin sons, age four. Gladys is the wife of D. S. Stuyvesant, a well known New York financier, Edna Webb is no longer interested in Latin. At present she is doing her major work in Home Economics as Mrs. Gerald Humbert. Louis Albrecht is superintendent of schools in Kansas City, Mo, His innova- tions in the administration of his school system have been the talk among educators for the past year. His book on Efficient School Administration” has been called a masterpiece by such great educators as Dr. H. C. Olsen and Miss Lulu E. Wirt under whom he studied. Edith Smithey, who could forget her? She is now Agent to U. S. House of Rep- resentatives from the Southern District of the Philippine Islands.

He suggests the following signs for railroad crossings: Come ahead. You’re unimportant.” Try our engines. They satisfy.” Don’t stop. Nobody will miss you.” Take a chance. You can get hit by a train only once.” Magic of Latin—-A farmer who was much troubled by trespassers during the nutting season consulted with a botanical friend. The botanist furnished him with the technical name of the hazel, and the farmer placed the following notice at con- spicuous points about his premises: Trespassers, cake warning! All persons entering this wood do so at their own risk, for, although common snakes are not often found, the Corylus Avelana abounds every- where about here, and never gives warning of its presence.” The place was unmolested that year, and the farmer gathered his crop in peace.

Dear Miss Bare Facts: f am deeply in love with a young man to whom I am engaged. We both graduate this spring from the State Teachers College. My fiance lias a fine position as principal of Notown High School next year at a salary of $2 400. I am willing to skimp and save and i know we could manage some way. but lie just won’t listen to our being married. lie has spent his money on education and says he can't afford to start housekeeping. I just can’t live without him and Oh! Miss Bare Facts, how can I make him feel the way I do about it? Lovelorn Senior: My dear, your problem is a very simple one. I would suggest that you both be surprised and delighted to learn how reasonable his furniture is priced. lie will probably suggest shipping the furniture direct from the whole- sale house to your next year’s location. This will mean a better price and no freight nr crating charge for you 1o pay. MR. SWAN, having been a teacher himself for several years, will no doubt be glad to arrange payments that will make it very easy for you to handle. This store ships furniture any place and boast that they will under sell ail competition.

GOOD AD FOR ESPERANTO. If one is a tooth and a whole set are teeth. Then why shouldn’t booth in the plural be beeth? If the plural of man is always call men. Why shouldn’t the plural of pan be called pen? You may find a lone mouse or a whole nest of mice, But more than one house is most surely not hice. A cow in the plural is properly kine, But a bow if repeated is never called bine. Then one may be that and two would be those, Yet hat in the plural would never be hos. We speak of a brother and also of brethren, But though we say mother we never say methren. The masculine pronouns are he, his, and him, But imagine a feminine she, shis and shim! So the English, I fancy you all will agree, Is the funniest language you ever did see. Friend—Say, Scotty, can you spare me five or ten— Scotty—No— Friend—Minutes? I think I can show you how to save some money. Scotty—Certainly. You can take as long as you want. Harold N.

All things sooner or later must have an end —roads, years, exams, vacations, books and even the Blue and Gold. But we hope that the end is not yet, that the memories preserved in this book may live on and that they may help; first, the under graduates to be inspired and uplifted by the records and achievements and the smiling faces of the seniors; second, the faculty to remember the change which four years produced in the seniors and to realize that they should not lose hope when freshmen act like dubs;” and third, the seniors to remember their teachers, classes and organizations and, perhaps, a little of what they learned and to be inspired to make a record in life as good as, if not better than, that made in their college days which have come to The End.
