LibKAKt STATE TEACHERS COLLEGE KtARKLY. NEBRASKA $ xit 9 30 y Xth t$htd tr cj JJ e b r sfoa tate eacljcr College ° Kc am 11 elm 51378 This volume is intended to perpetuate the activities, associations, achievements, and, above all, the enduring spirit of Kear- ney College; not only through commemorat- ing the past and present, but in building into the future. Air-Minded. The development of Aviation brings to us a new perspective, Air-Mindedness.” In youth this is demonstrated in the spirit of adventure reaching out across the sea to new goals and bright visions. Youth stands on tiptoe Stretching, straining, calling— With arms outflung. The glint of hope—questionings. Eager, vital, relentless— Crimson blood with power pulsating Y outh—air-minded! This perspective throws new light when Wisdom engaged in the eternal search for Knowledge and Truth, sifts the grain from the chaff. Wisdom scans the threshold Clearing, judging, sifting— With beacons lifted. Truth of the ages—considering Consummate, accurate, exacting— Dynamic power through time unceasing Wisdom—renewed! To the World it brings the vision of the brotherhood of man. Let us hope and pray— chat the dreams of youth become reality. Man awaits the coming Expectant, hushed, and eager With faults unanswered. The era of good will,—brotherhood. Faith, hope, and charity, Undying trust in an unending love The new dream! —Kenneth Waterman, V' Lisin the Good 7 Ends ; - J'. ' Agnes K. Anderson.

The Student Government Association be- gan in the fall of 1926 with Horner Mc- Connell as president. The following year Clarence Lindahl was president. Last year Sidney Mosser headed that association, and Junior Representatives Sophomore Representatives Freshman Representatives this year George West is serving in that capacity. The Council is composed of the presi- dent, vice president, secretary, and two representatives from each of the four classes and the faculty. Each year the Council publishes a stu- dent handbook, a copy of which is placed in the hands of each student at the be- ginning of the fall term. This handbook contains the constitution of the Student Government Association, traditions of the school, school yells and songs, and a list of the organizations and extra-curricular activities.

The class of 1930 expresses its sincere appreci- ation for the help and guidance which Miss Hill and Mr. Hair have given throughout the four years of its existence. Mr. J, H. Hab, who has been connected with the college for thirteen years, has charge of the shorthand and secretarial training classes. Aside from his work as in- structor Mr. Hale lias taken an active par: in sponsoring extra-curricular activities. He has always taken a great interest in ath- letics and commercial subjects, and has helped to promore commercial contests. Miss Ethel Hill is head of the Depart- ment of Spanish. She holds the degree, Bachelor of Arts, from Hastings College, and the Master of Arts degree from Co- lumbia University. She has also done gradu- ate work in the University of Colorado and has studied abroad, receiving a certificate from Centro de Estudios Histories, Madrid, Spain.

You will go out this June from cloistered halls Of academic wisdom from quiet walks Beneath the campus trees, from starlit talks Of youth and life and God. Your future calls You into the swirl of cities and of men; You will not come this way again. You couch my hand and speak sweet, awkward words Of thanks and parting. You will remember me As long as singing birds and stars shall be— And yet— You will forget. I watch you go— I who have trembled for you, hoped, rejoiced, And stretched a careful finger forth to guide you. Your soul is a clean, white book whose pages glow Scarlet and gold and blue—I shall not know The ending of the story therein voiced. Your soul is a fragile moth with pale gold wings, New-broken from its chrysalis, it clings Vibrant upon youth’s stem; I shall not see The beauty of your flight, radiant and free. Your soul is a delicate plant I have watched unfolding Green leaf by clear green leaf; But you will flower far from my beholding,. So frail remembrance is, so rare, so brief. Your soul is a small brown bird whose hesitant flying I follow anxiously; I cannot shield You from rough winds and storm. You flutter on, A gleam of sunlight round you prophesying Your soaring strength. Across the ripening field You drift, and lift above the wood—on—on—until You flash beyond the hill— And you are gone.

Selvidge of Missouri, on the methods and psychology of teaching industrial subjects. The junior class feels fortunate in having these two wide-awake faculty members as sponsors. They have been enthusiastic in their work with the class, and have been responsible for its success. Pace 50 Marie Anderson Kearney Y. W C A.. Spanish Club.

We have left the rapid slash of merciless critics. It has left us heartless and a little proud. Yet—you would cram us! Full,—tight-breathing giants—of your wisdom, power and symbols Time after time! Don't blame us if we’re cynical. There is much to do, that you've left undone. Still—we accept the task! The motive, to still our questionings and fulfill our youth. Well grant to you your wisdom and your dreams. But Oh Age!—leave us one thing more. Let us find the way. —Kenneth Waterman. President Vice President Secretary-T reasurer Student Gov. Ass’n.

Larson, Calvin T. Ryan. The freshman class, numbering three hundred fifty-four, met for the first time, September 18, for organization. The first school party of the year, given by the freshman class, was a grand success. The freshmen took charge of convoca- tion Monday, November 18. This presen- tation, given as a challenge to upper class- men, showed that freshmen take pleasure in demonstrating their ability in various activities about the institution. On January 31, the freshman class took pride and pleasure in presenting their edi- tion of The Antelope ' edited by Allan Smith. The class has furnished outstanding ma- terial and ability for football, basketball, track, debate, music, and other activities of the year. We feel we owe a debt of gratitude to Miss Larson and Professor Ryan, spon- sors of our class. We take this opportunity to speak a word of appreciation of the in- terest they have shown in us, and of the effort they have put forth to push fresh- man activities.

C Pa 76 Coach Fred R. Fulmer. Coach Fulmer of die K. S T« C, Antelopes believes in high ideals clean living and clean sports. He is the oldest coach in the conference. He has been here nine years, and is much loved by all who have worked under him or with him. Because of his fair treatment and kindly attitude, he can get more out of his men than any other coach. □ d a Assistant Coach Dunlap. Rusty” has played football in several schools, and has the honor of being am All-State Half in Oklahoma, and an All-Conference Half from Hastings College and Notre Dame. It was due to his efforts that the team developed some of the fundamentals that made the opponents sorry they tried a particular spot for their charge. Pane 77 James Lovell. Hastings, 175 lb. Half-back. Jim” plays a consistent game all the time, never gets excited or worried, and knows just wliat to do all the time. He was valuable, especially for his long, sure passing and plowing. Merle Trail. Clarks, 198 lb. Tackle. Humie” received honorable mention for the con- ference team, and was an all conference man last year. When the opponents saw the white in his eye, they usu- ally hit the other end of the line. He plays a clean, fast game, Meade Westman, Clarks, 180 lb. Center. The coach was undecided as to just where to play Meade, so he played every position on the team except end. The coach finally placed him at center, and he proved to be a very good pivot for the team to work from. He plays a cool game with his head working all the time. Pace SO Earl Shrove, Loup City, 195 lb. Guard, Shrove played a strong type of football and played all over the team, starting each play from the left guard position, His beef made a stonewall for every opposing team. He gave all he had, either to stop the opponents or to open a hole for his backfield men. Dale Qleson. St. Paul, 175 lb Quarlerback- Ole plays football in a business-like way and handled his position in a very efficient manner. Although he re- ceived a broken nose the first of the season, his de- termination kept him going, and he made his letter. Fritz Meyer. Hastings, 160 lb. End. Fritz is small but pretty well spread out, which quality gave him a good opportunity of playing a real game at all times. He was always in the fight and fast on the punts and passes. Pa«c Kenneth Daggett. Kearney,. 150 lb. Quarterback. Daggett is only a freshman in name, but he plays football like a veteran. He received honorable mention jn the all-conference write-up. He shows good headwork in his signals against opponents. When he gets some added weight and experience, the other teams better not let him get loose. Archie Mason, Captain 29, Ord. 180 lb. Fullback- ''Arch is a man who plays the game hard and all the time. He can dope out the opponents plays and is a real player for backing up the line on defense and going through the line on the offense. Charles Snyder. Clarks, 170 lb. End. Chick” is the only four year man on the team. His services will be greatly missed in the next year’s team. He made his only touchdown in the last game this sea- son, and oh! Whar a smile! Chick” is noted for his fight and determination. Wayne Norman, Ord, 182 lb- Guard. Norman plays the game as a matter of life and death and the opponents preferred life. He is a hard hitter and enjoyed himself most when on the bottom of the pile. He will make a very valuable man as guard in 30. (No Picture) Pa i- 82 Howard Williams. Kearney, 170 lb End. CaF started out slow, but came in at the end as a mighty fast player. He was by far the hardest of the men to lose his feet. He should he a real asset to the team in 30. Sheldon Wingerd. Atlanta, 175 Ih. Center. Shell” played his second year as pivot for the Ante- lopes this season. He really played because he could see a play ahead to block the opponents or to open a hole for his men. Charles Blazek. St. Paul, 185 lb. Guard. Eagle” is one of the new men on the team, but plays the game like an old master. He is the one who kept the team playing the game at all times by his words and actions. He was valuable both as an offensive and de- fensive player. Le Ross Williams, Capt-elect !30, North Loup, 198 lb. Tackle- Cap” is a likebie sort and knows his football. He was our most consistent tackier this year, and earned a berth on the all conference team because of bis clean playing and his determination to stop all plays. Pjr« S3 Football Season. The season opened with the largest squad out for practice in the history of the school. There were nine letter men back, but sev- eral important positions were open for new men. Competition was keen for these open- ings and no one really knew who the lucky men would be. After the first few' weeks the number for practice dwindled, but there were usually enough men on the field for three teams. The games played were against strong, experienced teams, making it difficult for the Antelopes to make a good showing, hut it gave valuable experience to the new' men for next year. The men on the first and second teams made two very nice crips, one to Cheyenne, Wyo., and Greeley, Colo., and the other to Marysville, Mo. McPherson Ft. D.

Captain Basketball Team 1930. Frank was an outstanding player on his team. He was fast and sure� and high point man in the conference. He was elected all conference forward. This makes two years at this position for him. Pasc 86 z Frederick Meyer, Hastings, Guard. Fritz” played a persistent game at all times and played the game for all that was in him. He was a parr of the championship team two years ago. James Lovell, Hastings, Guard. James was an all conference man last year and this year. He is noted for his skill in dribbling and out- witting his opponents. He, too played on the champion- ship team two years ago. Le Ross Williams, North Loup, Guard. Cap” played his stationary guard position to per- fection, and very few ever got away from him. He was also able to sink a few when it was necessary for him to do it. Paite 8ft Frank Dusek. Captain. Pleasanton, Forward. Frank is one of the fastest men in the state with the ball, and is a sure shot. He makes a real leader and is able to read the other team. He was an all conference man last year and this year, and one of the champion ship players two years ago. Harold Nelson, Brady, Forward. Nels” is one of those fellows who play the game easy but consistent. He uses good headwork and foot- work, These two qualities in one person make him valu- able. Willis Wolcott. Kearney, Forward. Bill” was a most consistent player. He was always where he was needed, whether on defense or offense, and when he got the ball, it was another basket; that was all. Charles Blazek. Sc. Paul, Center. Charlie is a good pivot for the team, as be is good on both defense and offense. His height helps him on the tip-off. He received the second team center assign- ment this year in the all conference line up. W, Wolcctu C. Bloitvk. Conch Fulmer. O. Kruuger, H. Nflson, I., Williams. J. Lovell. M. Morse. F.

With several [ettermen out for practice, and many as yet inexperienced players all suited up and ready for the whistle, Kear- ney's basketball season opened auspiciously. Frank Dusek, in combination with Blazek and Lovell, formed a nucleus for the forging of a peerless quintette, which was ccmpletcd by the promising expert basket- eers, Wolcott and Williams. Nor was Kear- ney’s scoring dependent entirely upon the teamwork and accurate tossing of the first team five, for ever watchful were Fritz Meyer, Harold Nelson and Marcus Morse who, at an instant’s notice, were eager and ready to go into the game and, by their brainy teamwork, augment the score of the Blue and Gold. The hopes Kearney had and the faith she placed in her team was well justified by the outcome of the long-to-be-remem- bcred western trip, which showed, as per- haps nothing else could, the ability of Kear- ney men when they were under fire,” and they returned to Kearney more than pleased with the hospitality shown them, the unforgettable things they saw, the ex- periences they had, and the scores they piled up” against the professional teams from Chicago and Lincoln, and the others they played. As the season progressed and the scores piled up, it seemed but a matter of time until another championship would be Kear- ney’s, and the silver basketball would be weighting down a shelf of the Antelope trophy case. As to why the first Chadron game came out as it did, who can say? We beat the champions-to-be by a decisive scorz of forty-two to thirty, only to have the performance at Chadron repeated on our own floor, this second defeat by the Eagles losing to us the chance at the crown. Alibis could be given, but they are superfluous; our quintette played gamely, cleanly and fair; we beat the champion team, in fact were the only team that did; and showed the other teams what we were capable of when on the maple floor. K. S. T. C. is still game, and other seasons are coming, and we wonder whether Dusek will again be high-point man of the conference with Blazek next, or will other basketeers have that honor. Who can tell? Here’s to the team of ’31 and those who may follow them. Page 91 Frank Lydie. Captain Track Tram, 1929, Lydie is the long distance man, and holds two records here, one in the two-mile and the other in the mile. He represented lis at Drake and placed fourth. He runs easy but fast, and we expect much of him in the future. TRACK SQUAD. 1929. G. Burger, S. Mosser. D- Peterson, P. Carlson. W. Richards. R. Wilson. F. K. Fulmer. Coach. J- Lucas, O. Walls, W.

The season was quite successful from the standpoint of winners in the various meets. The Antelope’s first contest was with tile Grand Island Zebras. Every Antelope placed in this meet, giving us a total of 89 2-3 points. Dickerson placed high with three firsts. The Hastings Bronchos :he Antelopes on a muddy field, but some of the races were very closely contested. The Wayne meet was the turning point in history, for twelve records were broken, and some by our own men. Hays College failed to come due to heavy rains and mud. Lydic entered die races at Drake, placed as a winner. and Page 94 O. Wntt . Capuin. L. Swenson. F. Lydic, C. Phillips, D, Peterson, J. Schumacher. Cross Country Team. The Cross Country Team was composed of Captain Orlie Watts� Frank Lydic, Jim Schumacher, Leland Swenson, and Claire Phillips. They cleaned up on all contenders for the championship. The first meet was at Doane. We came out with a first, second, fifth, sixth and seventh. At Wayne, the next meet, there were only three runners, Watts, Lydic and Schumacher. We took an easy first, by Lydic, and third and fourth, by Schu- macher and Watts. The next meet was with Hastings on our home field, and included a real race be- tween Lydic and Ham met, Lydic took sec- ond, and we placed fifth, sixth, eighth, and tenth. This was the only race that we lost. The A. A, LJ. was run here. It was to include the four states, that is, the colleges and universities of both Dakotas, Iowa and Nebraska, but only Hastings, Wayne, and Kearney entered. Pige 95 L, Bush, W. Hickenbunotn.

During the reg- ular season the Trainers played twenty-six games and won nineteen. The Trainers were runners-up in the Sectional Tournament and were entered in the Regional. The sea- son’s climax came when the Junior Ante- lopes held the fast Kearney High team 12 to 7 in a game which served notice to all that hereafter the Maroons are not to be taken lightly. The Trainers boast of wins over Rivcrdale, Amherst, Pleasanton, Mil- ler, Oconto, Eddyville, Elmcreek, Gibbon, Shelton, Ax tell and Green jackets. With ex- ception of Kearney High School, the Trainers won over every opponent at some time during the year. Letter men are Cap- tain Walter Widener, Melvin Widener, Eugene Allen, Lynn Bush, Marvin Tappan, Lester Tappan, Eldridge Snowden, Joseph Soares and William Hickcnbottom. The team was coached by Shell” Win- gerd, former athlete of Kearney State Teachers’ College. This spring the Trainers have entered a newly organized conference, to be known as the Tri-Valley Conference.” The mem- ber schools are: Amherst, Gibbon, Kearney Trainers, Overton, Pleasanton, Riverdale, Shelton, and Wood River. It is planned to select conference champions in basketball, football and crack each year. The Trainers have about fifteen men out for track, which give them a good chance for a fine showing in the conference meet this spring. Page 96 O. Myers. G. Eckhard'i. H. Panek. Yell Leaders. George Eckhardt, our Wisconsin Bolshe- vist, king of the Antelope rooters, kept the K. S. T. C. spirit burning at a high flame throughout the football season and on through the winter season of basketball games. He was assisted by Hazel Panek and Orva Myers... George was graduated from Viroqua, Wisconsin, high school, in 1929. He was drum major in the all-state band, and state champion orator the same year. He has done work in debating in both high school and college. Hazel Panek, a 1925 graduate of Kear- ney High School, is a major in the physical education department. She was, for three years, a yell leader in high school, fn the years 1926 to 1928 she was on the team at K. S. T. C. Orva Myers, also a major in physical education, is from the Broken Bow High School, class of 1927. She wTas a yell leader there and for the past two years has been on the K. S. T. C. team. At football and basketball games this trio of cheer leaders led the Kearney fans in veils and songs until the ream drove to vic- tory.

C will long be remem- bered by all who heard him. Another thing which the Y” sponsored was the Acmy Athletic Carnival. This was held in the gymnasium and consisted of boxing, wrestling, basketball, and other athletic events. The contestants were stu- dents of the college and, therefore, a great deal of interest was created. I I I Pace 100 M. Beadle, L Harris. B. Myers, G. Grantham. C. Shovlain. H. Teter. O- Myers. J.

Only those students who showed distinctive dramatic ability were accepted. From the time of the founding of the organization it has grown steadily in popularity, and this year the league presented two three-act plays that were of unusual merit. The first of those productions was Elliott Lester’s clever comedy, Take My Advice.” The casting of this play was new and de- cidedly unique. Each act had a separate cast. In this manner twenty-four members of the league were enabled to take an ac- tive part in the play. The play was pre- sented two weeks after the cast had been chosen. In the middle of the second quarter a group of the club members presented Ibsen’s A Doll’s House.” The club held its two social functions during the first and third quarters. In the fall quarter the league held a waffle supper and dance in the Y. W. C. A. room and in the spring quarter a St. Patrick’s Day dance in the Highlander Hall. Dramatically, financially, and socially the members of Thearer Arts League feel that the year 1929-30 was a decided success. Patre 109 J. Schumacher. B. Ruplinger. R. Schumacher, G, Dow, M.

The purpose of Sigma Tau Delta is to stimulate a desire on the part of our mem- bers to seek to express life in terms of truth and beauty, and to make first hand ac- quaintanceship with the chief literary mas- terpieces of our language. Fraternity rulings limit the membership to twelve active members.

After the membership campaign last fall, during which time almost two hundred members were secured, the annual member- ship banquet was held. The banquet estab- lished a feeling of good will and fellow- ship among the girls and helped them to find their places in our Y. W. C. A, or- ganization. Other activities that were sponsored by the Y. W. C. during the year were the Annual Holiday Festival on December 15; an informal tea for DacP Elliott and Miss Gw inn, our regional secretary, on March 18; and our house warming and informal re- ception for new' cabinet members on March 6. Dad” Elliott's visit was distinctly inspi- rational to the student body and Miss Gwinn, during her visit to our campus, helped the new cabinet members materially in their organization for the coming year. Our secondary goal of redecorating and refurnishing the Y. W. C. A. rooms has been realized. Due to the careful manage- ment of our finance committees, wre were able to turn fifty dollars over to the World Student Christian Federation Fund, place fifty dollars in the Estes Park budget, and make a donation to the Pipe Organ Fund of two hundred dollars. These accomplishments were made pos- sible through the untiring efforts of the association and the loyalty of K. S. T. C, students. 109 C. Shovliiin, 1. Foster. M, Loyd, E. Knui en, i). Foster.

The purpose of this club is to broaden and improve the lives of other young women. Each year the club puts on a style show in convocation, displaying the work which the students have been doing in their class- es. Discussions are given by a reader as to the suitability of these costumes for school wear, for dining out, for making applica- tions, and for attending formal teas. This winter bake sales were conducted to raise funds for the improvement of the de- partment. A doll project was very success- fully carried out. The dolls were dressed to represent styles of different countries. The dolls were then given to the children at the state hospital. From time to time talks are given by the members and by outside speakers. Music and refreshments are added at the monthlv meetings.

The club has made remarkable progress in its purpose of promoting interest in and knowledge of the Spanish language and people. Led by a sponsor who has studied the Spanish people in their own country, and a president who has lived several years in Mexico, the members of La Socieded Es- panola, numbering almost fifty, were able to create a real Spanish atmosphere in their club meetings. Other first hand informa- tion came from two students, Pauline Jove, a native of Central America, and Loudy Knezek, a Bohemian boy who has traveled in Spain and speaks the language fluently. Among the most interesting Spanish Club programs were the talks given by Mr. Knezek concerning his travels in Europe and Africa and by Mrs. Ruby Beaty con- cerning her former home in Mexico, A one act Spanish play, stories told in Spanish. Spanish songs and reports about the Mexi- can beet farmer in the United States fur- nished material for other programs. How- ever, Spanish Club meetings aroused inter- est in Spanish life not only through its pro- grams, but also by means of the games and social time which followed the regular meeting. Familiar games were especially ap- pealing when played in Spanish, and the members also learned new games which are typically Spanish. La Sociedad Espanola is proud of its years work because it has accomplished a difficult thing. It lias made meetings which are primarily educational, entertaining. Page 112 L- Chfinltnsen, G. Wes� .

The question for debate was Resolved that the nations should adopt a plan of complete disarmament except such forces as are needed for police purposes.” A squad of about fifteen worked the entire second quarter on the question. Pane I I 3 ‘The Red Mill.” In the land of Zeeland, near the village of Katwyk-ann-zee, there stands an old and famous inn, known as the Red Mill Inn,” its name being raken from that sup- posedly haunted mill in which a certain young princess disappeared on the eve of her wedding. Far and wide, the fame of this inn spread. And it was in this old mill that history nearly repeated itself. This mysterious inn in this even more mysterious land formed the nucleus for the most clever and intriguing comic opera that has ever been produced at the music de- partment of K. S. T. C. The Red Mill” was written by Victor Herbert, the most noted of American light opera composers. The scene opened in the court yard of the Red Mill Inn, with the old mill it- self standing prominently in the foreground. The place was teeming with life and merri- ment, the artists, the flower girls, the peasants, and all the rest of the villagers were gathered there, enjoying life as it was meant to be enjoyed. Staying at the inn were two Americans, Con Kidder and Kid Conner, who were somewhat financially embarrassed at the time. Around these two clever comedians, the plot began to unfold. The plot itself reads like a fairy tale. A beautiful girl, the daughter of the burgo- master, was to have married the governor of the province, at the request of her father. However, she was in love with a sailor. Her father, becoming enraged on hearing this, locked the girl in the mill, and imprisoned her lover. She disappeared-—exactly as had the princess a century ago. The burgomaster employed the services of Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson, who turned out to be none other than the two Americans. Of course everything ended in the conventional manner with everybody happy. The clever lines and pleasing melodies of The Red Mill” together with superb act- ing of the cast, made The Red Mill the outstanding musical production of this year, and of years gone by. The costumes and scenery were strikingly worked out, and to make a long story brief, The Red Mill” will serve as a model for future produc- tions in K, S. T. C. for years to come. The production of The Red Mill” was under the direction of Professor L. H, Diercks. The music department received valuable aid from the Zip Club in the busi- ness management. Page 1 1 4 i Kearney Symphony Orchestra. During the absence of Mr. Raymond C, Rogers, Mr. Raymond N. Nazer took charge of the Kearney Symphony Orchestra, and during the year gave a series of con- certs of a high order. This organization indudes many people of both the student body and the community. It is truly a com- munity organization. The orchestra meets every Thursday evening for rehearsals which prepare it for the concerts held during the year. A number of the members were selected to play for the Choral Union’s first con- cert when they gave the memorable Messiah.” The orchestra for The Red Mill” was drawn from the symphony. On both occasions the orchestra did its bit to- ward making the events successful. The dates of its concerts are as follows: September 27, October 30, April 13, May 2 and May 29, On the first two daces the orchestra gave concerts from one-half to three- quarters of an hour in length. The concert cn April 13 was an hour and a half long. In this concert were played Mozart’s E Flat Symphony,” two numbers of Minuet Farandole” from the L’Arseliene Suite,” and Lustpiel Overture.” Mrs. Webster played one harp solo and accompanied Herald Stark’s vocal solo, A special combination has been brought together to supply the orchestral music for the Silver Jubilee on June 19 and 20, 1930. They arc rehearsing music arranged by the Music 202 class, under Mr. Raymond N. Nazer. Page I I 5 Kearney State Teachers College Band. An organization that was bcgtm in the fall of the school year as a pep organiza- tion, it now supplies music for all athletic events. Starting with a group of six. valiant souls, it has now increased its membership to thirty. The organization has played for many convocations and its programs were well received. In the group are a number of instru- mental soloists, sucb as Archie Wheeler, trumpet, George Eckhardt, baritone, Lo Desca Nvquist, piccolo, and Leonard Wil- kie, sou saphone. Inasmuch, as we had quite a cold winter, the band thought it advisable to buy as its athletic event uniform, ''Parkas,” a sweat- shirt affair, with a hood. At our first ap- pearance in these uniforms, the student body was struck with our similarity to our northern brother, the eskimo. Thus, dur- ing the early part of our career we were known as The Eskimos,” On October 12 the band and two hun- dred of the student body accompanied the football team to Omaha for our annual game with Omaha University. Our parade through the streets was a memorable oc- casion. Upon reaching the status of a concert band, we made arrangements for uniforms which are worthy of the school and the organization. On April 5 the entire band went to Ra- venna to broadcast, and gave a one hour program, of concert numbers and marches. The band is sponsored and directed by Mr. Raymond N. Nazer. ft. Riirm.rn, It.

Twenty-one years ago his father had had ro make the same decision. In spite of his happy marriage, the father has al- ways cherished a longing to paint- His son's desire to become an architect awakens old memories. Has he been happy all these years? Nancy, his wife, recognizing the seriousness of the situation, persuades him to give up business and devote his time to painring. After nine months Matey discovers the artistic life to have financial disadvantages and often disappointments, especially when his portraits prove to have merely commer- cial human interest appeal” rather than artistic value. Soon he realizes that Love is a weakness—in an artist” when Ricky’s career and happiness are at stake. Matey returns to business as a truimphant failure.

One of the outstanding dramatic pro- ductions of the year was the Theatre Arts League’s presentation of Henrik Ibsen’s A Doll’s House.” Marking one of the heaviest pieces of work attempted in Kear- ney College for a number of years, the drama was enthusiastically received by an unusually appreciative audience. Those theatre-goers who attended the performance praised highly the skillful interpretation of the actors, all of whom were enrolled in the Junior College. Many interesting features added to the splendid characterizations of the actors in making the play a finished piece of stage Miriam Eckhardt Drake Edna Van Stecnberg work. Chief among these will be remem- bered the beautiful lighting effects back stage and the charm of Nora’s three small children. The theme and development of A Doll's House” attracts all lovers of good drama. Nora—the doll, the plaything—realizes that living in a doll’s house may be care-free, but that it does not satisfy. Why shouldn’t she be allowed to think, to realize that higher ”duty to herself?” Her final deci- sion to leave children, home, husband in an effort to discover whether she or the world is right, aroused the sympathy of her au- dience just as it did of those audiences who first beard this cry for woman’s freedom.

Superintendent Goldie Stark Willis Hopton - High School Principal High School Helen Garner ... Grade School Mrs. Ava Elliott - Grade School There are eight rural schools affiliated with the college. These schools afford ob- servation and practice teaching opportuni- ties for prospective teachers of rural schools. Few teachers colleges have as complete a system for the purpose, for here almost every small community situation in Ne- braska is represented both as to the day school and as to community activities. These schools are administered jointly by the school boards and the director of rural education of the college. In this way model standards are obtained; that is, proper cur- riculum, proper child management, first class instructors, and proper environment are all maintained. It naturally follows that these schools afford the very best of situ- ations in which to train teachers, for they are both natural and efficient situations. One doing his practice teaching in one of these schools proceeds in matters of man- agement and instruction jusc as he will when he goes out into the field and into his own school. Approximately one hundred twenty-five prospective rural teachers have done prac- tice teaching in these schools, as well as much observation, during the present school year. To have done so must surely give a feeling of confidence to many, if not ail. Many of the young ladies were never in a rural school until such time as they ap- peared to do this practice teaching or ob- servation. To give experiences so greatly lacking and so much needed seems to he answering the challenge of specialization in training, and proper placement of teachers through training. The above facts are not presented so much in a spirit of justification for this system of rural teacher training schools, but as a matter of information to those who may be interested.

This fund benefits many young women by making it possible for them to attend college. In addition seventy- five dollars has been contributed to the Harriet Sutton Memorial Organ Fund. The Women’s League endeavors to promote the larger social activities throughout the year. Each year the Women’s League makes some contribution to the school. These gifts have been attractive pictures, the tea ser- vice, drapes for the office of the dean of women, linen, furnishings for the Stexy,” seats for the lawn, and one hundred dol- lars for the stage curtains. At the programs each month interest- ing problems are discussed. The Council of the Women’s League consists of the four executive officers and representatives from various organizations of the school.

Knowing that this will never be published, and that no eye other than mine will ever see what I write, I find that I have an ad- vantage over other writers and that I am at liberty here to say things that would be un- thinkable, if anyone were to read them. If you expect tins to be an essay, you are not incorrect; it is one, but in the event you thought it wasn’t, there are two of us of the rame opinion- You probably never saw an- other write-up just like it, for Pvc heard it said (by whom, I wonder?) that Nature never repeats. I am curious, however, as to whether she ever tried writing essays.

My thread of thought must be got, you see, or there would be no comprehending of my long line” when my ideas did unravel. Not denying the foregoing, it’s a well known fact that writing, to be really worth while, must have unity, (whatever that is) so” if you should find, in reading this that there is one of those creatures lurking about, treat it kindly and, wagging its tail before it, the best will come back to you. It's your own fault, however, for you must remember that I said at the beginning I was certain everyone would be reading this, and prais- ing it to the chimney-sweeps. Just see what you’ve brought on yourself? It reminds me of the Arabian Knights, who charged everything, including enemies and hotel bills. (I fail to remember whether or not there were hotels in those days.) The Arabians’ feat smacks, however, of the charge of the Light Brigade, only there were just about six-tenths as many of the Ten- nysonian Horsemen, if I remember my arithmetic. It may not be to you, but to me it’s interesting ro compare the leg-length of the Arabian Knjghts’ steed with that on a Nebraska farmer’s Dobbin, which is a Detroit Innovation, and seems to furnish a lot to enjoyment to the Earth-earthies while they wrestle it all over our beautifully (?) paved highways.

Now for the comparison with the Middle-Western Wonder, You will find a detailed comment on that in the October issue, page 431, of the Kearney Afternoon Wasp. But, to come back to the subject of whether Arnold Bennett will ever succeed Mussolini on the throne of Japan, I never will forget chose good old times in Senior Essay. We always attended that hour with pleasure, and went to class habitually with a copy of Minerva’s Counsel in one hand, a volume of Eddie” Neversaydie, the People’s Pollyanna Poet, in the other, and in between these, higher up, energetically being toothed, was a package of the slight- ly-advertised after-dinner mint, Wrigley’s. After the instructor had ceased compli- menting us upon our discriminating taste in things literary, and we had agreed with him that, as to chewables, perhaps two packages were better than none, we settled down in earnest to a consideration of the most soporific bromides familiar to us. (Nor to mention the scratch-paper resulting, wc were gratified to receive the voluminous mail from the crowned heads of Europe, telling us how much they enjoyed our pro- gram.) Remembering, furthermore, that variety of sentence is one requisite of a good essay, I have decided that I agree with the Soul of Honesty, when he said that you could tell the distance a man was from the ground if you knew how long his legs were. One just must use transitional expres- sions, so please do not be surprised, aston- ished, astounded, or appalled if you fail to find, somewhere in this essay, one of those peculiar things.
