Kearney, Nebr. Photographs by The Anderson Studio Mattson Studio Editors This book, a commemoration of the year 1931, 32, is published as a reminder to us, in years to come, of the per- sonnel and of the activities which took place at K. S. T. C. during this year. We have engaged in the scholastic activities of obtaining knowledge to better equip us to live fuller lives, to serve better and to advance the cause of civilization. tvxm Preface. It is our heritage to be exponents of an age in which there is prevalent a feeling of international unrest, the after- math of a world conflict for the purpose of suppressing au- tocracy and advancing world peace. As Seniors, we are alert to the predominating problem of the day, the goal toward which all nations and classes are striving, world peace.” I t Campus green. and sunsets gold Content his soul with thy generous wealth.

The din of war and reverberate sound of drum That echoes from the cave of pre-historic man. And sounds again through ages of ascension To an eager, racing, heartless City of Despair Laid out by Lake Michigan’s sandy shores. And upward through the science of a deadly mist Enshrouding cities, countries, nations with their people; Plucking feathers from the massive eagles Roaring anguished cries above them— That din of war can echo now, again,—echo and re-echo To a deafening roar, a faintly rumble to a grove— Preserve a silence from which the gladness of the earth Will bloom again in moon flower, lilies; abandoning The thistle, thorn and blood-dipped poppy-flower. The screech of war may be a murmur in the pine trees Translated to a love of life, and joy and peace. The monster war can die of death of satiated hunger From the coffers of the nations sacrificed to all stillness And the peace of brotherhood of men. —L. Eaton. Page 24 Classes Senior Class.

They cry at the college gate; For four years work For laughs and tears For love, but not for hate! A sheepskin! a sheepskin! it’s all yours For the labor that here you do. For the money you spend, For the having a friend, For this ids given to you! Degrees! degrees! all kinds we have, For you to choose but one; For failure and triumph, For hope and despair— Your degree—and life’s begun. Education we sell! education we sell! Could you use it in your trade? For four year's life, For youth, for love. Education, and your fortune's made. Life! life! a piece of life And would you live it well? Freshman! Sophomore— junior, Senior! With pride your heart can swell. We’ve made our lives a well of love, Of thought, and consecration; More laughs and joy Than pain and strife, For our college education. —L. Eaton. Pago 3 3 A History of the Seniors of 1932. Registration day. September 10, 1928, was important in the lives of several hun- dreds of freshmen who were becoming ac- quainted with such vague terms as prere- quisites, advisers,” and requireds.” To meer the gleeful, confident smiles of up- per classmen was a form of mild torture which made humble freshmen wonder whether college really was worth the effort. They became more cheerful, however, and actually expanded with fraternal feeling at the all-school mixer on September 13. The first class meeting was held on September 19. Officers were elected, and Miss Robin- son and Mr. Mantor were honored with the title of class sponsors. Gradually the freshmen began to be interested in school activities and to become eager participators in school life. September of 1929 found a large group of Sophomores once more haunting the halls of K. S. T. C. The enthusiasm of true college students was beginning to an- imate them. Perhaps the most evident man- ifestation of this enthusiasm was the suc- cess with which the Sophomores took part in the organ fund contest. As a result the Sophomore class received the honor of be- ing the class which had the greatest percent- age of its members contribute to the fund. Interest in organizations grew, and the Sophomores became known in school affairs. A small but spirited class of juniors returned to K. S. T. C,, in the autumn of 1930. The Juniors began a series of pro- grams by the various classes with a pro- gram on School Spirit.” One of the social events of the year was the party given the freshmen. The Junior-Senior banquet and junior Sneak Day” were the last events of a happy, busy yeat. Thus three years of progress and de- velopment provided the back-ground for the Senior class of 1932. Its members have displayed rheir talents and abilities, until they have become outstanding in every kind of activity on the campus—depart- mental clubs and organizations, music, dramatics, student government, publication of the Antelope. For four years, the seniors of 1932 have studied and worked and played together, under the sponsorship of Miss Robinson and Mr. Mantor. Now as they approach the consumption of those four years of college life, they review the events which, although they have become memories, have had their part in the mak- ing of personalities. May it be that, after these Seniors have gone from the dear, familiar walls of K. S« T. C, their influence may linger in the traditions they have left succeeding Seniors. Page 34 Juniors Junior Class. With loyal cooperation and support the Junior class has sponsored several affairs during the school year. The junior class convocation program on February 14 re- ceived much favorable comment upon its successful presentation. Those who attended the Junior-Senior banquet said that it was one of the most enjoyable and unusual banquets in the his- tory of the college. This is the first class to elect a king and queen for the banquet and we hope that the custom will be car- ried down from year to year as a tradi- tional honorary award to be bestowed upon two seniors. During the year we have been fortunate in having two enthusiastic sponsors to help us with our activities, Miss Minnie E. Larson and Mr. C. A. Foster. To them goes much of the credit for the successful year. As we look back over our period as juniors we realize that it has been an en- joyable year and hope that the same good fortune will follow the class as they go through their senior year. Officers elected by quarters were as follows: President: Geo. Burger, Allan Smith, Gerald Tooley. Vice President: LeRoy Nyquist, Willis Wolcott, Geo. Burger. Secretary: Orlie Watts, Dorothy Lovitt, Katherine Heidenreich. Treasurer: Oramel Kruger, Dorothy Lovitt, Florence Jackman. Student Council: Lois Cruit, Madeline Keenan, Helen Uridel; Gordon Wcin- brandt, Geo. Burger. Dean’s Council: Dorothy Lovitt, Pauline Troutman, Blanche Scribner. MISS MINNIE E. LARSON.

Vice President: Mrs. Grace Rothert, Dale Brabam, Walter Gall. Secretary: Pauline McCarty, Pauline McCarty, Esther Peterson. Treasurer: Fern Anderson, Fern Ander- son, Josephine Pierce. The class of 1934, under the able leader- ship of its sponsors and officers, has made remarkable progress. Throughout its history the class has been one of the leading organizations in spons- oring social activities. This year the class activities included a convocation program and several parties, dances to which other classes were invited. Much of the success of the class has been due to the advice and guidance of its sponsors, Mrs. H. O. Sutton and Mr. Donald Keller. Through rheir tireless efforts, the class has completed a most successful year. MR.

You can talk about green freshmen all you like and. yet you must admit that al- most half the college is made up of these timid souls. This large class of 360 has played an important part in keeping the upper classmen in reserve. They have car- ried over, perhaps from .high, school days, a great amount of pep and enough en- thusiasm to make college activities more interesting. The class has been fortunate in having Miss Alma Hosic and Mr. Klehm as its sponsors. With their help we have enjoyed three class parties and sponsored one con- vocation program. MISS HOSIC.

Tommy entered K- S. T. C. in the fall of 1930. He came from Elmcrcek where he graduated from high school in 1927. He was interested in Civil Engineering, and was an out- standing student in mathematics. During his year as a fresh- man at Kearney his cheerful disposition won him many friends. To his memory we dedicate this page in the 1932 Blue and Gold.

Coach Fred Fulmer is, from the stand- point of service, one of the oldest coaches in the N. I, A. A., and his being made Athletic Director of the Antelopes greatly added to the efficiency of the coaching staff. Mr. Fulmer returned to Kearney after a year at Washington State, with many new ideas that have proved very beneficial to the Antelopes. Ted James. ''Ted” James is head coach of the ath- letic teams.

He is in bis second year at Kearney and has already produced championship teams in football and track. COACH JAMES, Page 77 COACH OEHLRICH. Arnold Oehlrich. Assistant Coach Arnold Oehlrich is also a former Nebraska man, Mr, Oehlrich let- tered three years in the Nebraska back- ficld and has played two years of pro- fessional football with the Frankfort Yel- low Jackets. His knowledge of hackfield plays has greatly aided the Antelopes. Merle Trail. Captain Merle Trail, although injured in mid-season, continued to be a great help to his team,. This was HerniieV fourth season with the Antelopes, each year of which he has played good football. His position as tackle will be a hard one to fill next season. MERLE TRAIL.

Coach Ted James took his Antelopes to Hayes, Kansas for the first game of the season, Hayes presented a veteran squad of twenty-two leccermen and it was only after a hard fought battle that the Kear- ney team scored. Center Paul Jordon blocked a punt in tbc last half that proved the undoing of the Hayes team. KEARNEY 66—McCOOK JUNIOR COLLEGE 0. The McCook game gave Mentor James an opportunity to use every man wearing a football suit that evening. The first ream soon battered the McCook team into sub- mission. Before the game ended Wolcott, Malchow and Toltefsen each scored twice while Baxter, Isaacson, Stephenson and Robertson each scored one touchdown. KEARNEY 0—WAYNE 13. Kearney opened the N. L A. A. foot- ball scramble at Wayne. Copeland twice raced thirty yards for touchdowns. The first half was played on even terms. In yards gained from scrimmage and first downs earned the Antelopes held the ad- vantage, but were unable to gain when the yards were needed. Williams and Trail starred on the offense.

Kearney played their best game of the season against the strong Omaha team. The Antelopes passed their way to two touchdowns before the game was five min- utes old. However, the Cardinals came back strong and in the second quarter blocked a punt that netted two points. Omaha scored a touchdown in the third quarter. The work of Graham, Hendrick- son, and Elliott was especially fine. KEARNEY 0—COLORADO MINES 7. In the Colorado game the Antelope de- fense was much finer than the offense, the players apparently lacking the stamina required to make a long goalward drive. A pass in the last quarter was intercepted by a Colorado guard and converted into a touchdown. KEARNEY 0—CREIGHTON FRESH- MEN 7. The Creighton freshmen handed Kear- ney their first defeat on the new sod. The Antelopes held the advantage through the first half. A blocked punt in the last quar- ter was recovered by Creighton and they soon made a touchdown through the weak- ened Kearney line. PaS so Upper Row—-Gaylord Tollefseii, Capt.

Merryman, although injured, proved a continual threat to the Bobcats. KEARNEY 7—CHADRON 0. The final game of the season, won from Chadron on a snow-covered field, was not without the usual thrills. Chadron tried two place-kicks, one of which missed only by inches. Kearney also tried one but was far short of a goal. Late in the fourth quarter Fitz blocked a Chadron punt and Hubbcrt fell on the ball for a touchdown. Wolcott caught a pass for the additional point. KEARNEY 0—NEBRASKA fB’ 7. Kearney started the game by marching the entire length of the field only to be halted on the four yard line. Later Kearney advanced to the six inch line. In the second half Nebraska B scored on a fluke pass. Many of the Kearney gridmen were injured in this game. KEARNEY 0—PERU 20. The last quarter again proved fatal to the Antelopes and Peru scored three times before the game was over. The Antelopes were considerably handicapped by injuries LIBRARY STATE TEACHERS COLLE SLERASK -V n � r Page 81 Upper Row—Trainer Graailiatit, Isoa an, Noyes, Jordon, Tsdubrun, Graham.

The football season opened auspiciously with more than sixty men reporting for die early practices. Of this group nineteen had been members of the championship ream during the year previous and three were veterans of former seasons. Coach immediately set about the task of building another championship lineup. Several mem- bers of the team were injured in the Hayes’ game and Tutor James was unable to as- semble the full strength of veterans again during the season. In spite of the injury jinx the Antelopes finished in second place in the conference. Blazek, Wolcott, Malchow, Trail, Tscha- brun and Williams will be lost to the team next season, Williams played in every game during the four seasons of his foot- ball career. Several other men would have had an equally fine record had they nor received injuries. B” TEAM. Kearney organized a B football team that displayed some excellent work. These boys easily defeated both Scottsbluff Junior College and Nebraska Central. i k Pago 82 |uclfti. Wolcoti, lil.i ck, Fir . Grail jiti. K. S. T. C. Basketball Season. Opening the basketball season with a veteran squad of ten players Coach Fulmer arranged one of the longest schedules ever played by an Antelope team. Twenty-five games were played and the maplemen won Fifteen of them. The season opened with a series of ex- hibition games and a trip into Oklahoma where several of the best teams in the Sooner state were played. The Antelopes broke even in these games winning four and losing as many. The regular season opened with a point win over the strong Hastings quintet. Chad- ron and Kearney split games in their series. Wayne was measured easily and the An- telope fans entertained the idea of a cham- pionship team. The Wayne victory was followed with wins over Wesleyan, Hast- ings, Corner and Peru. The strong Omaha team stopped the Antelope winning streak. Wayne reversed the former count on the Antelope floor. Kearney next journeyed to Chadron where they twice decisively beat the Eagles. Omaha continued undefeated by disposing of the Antelopes in an easy manner. Using the Reserve team for the Comer game the Antelopes fell before a Page U« filing, Hendrickson, Williams, Krueger, Nelson. last half rally by the Bulldogs, Peru was next taken into camp. This was the first time the Bobcats had been beaten by am Antelope team twice in one season. On the last trip the Antelopes broke even, de- feating the Nebraska B team and losing to the fast Wesleyan team. Omaha finished the season undefeated and won the conference championship, Kearney finished in second position, Fitz was the only Kearney man deserving all conference recognition. Graham led the scoring lor the second consecutive year and Wolcott finished a few points behind. Blaze Sc, Wolcott, Williams, Krueger and Nelson played their last games for Kearney. B TEAM. This season Kearney put on the floor a B” basketball team that showed some promising flippers for the varsity next year. Their best game of the season was the battle against the Hastings reserves. This team played in the city league and finished in the upper berth. Page «5 Upper Row—Coach Fulmer. O. Krueger, R. Juelf� , D. Uehling. H. Nelson. Lower Row—Ci. Hendrickson, C, Blaaek, W. Wolcott.

The season of 1931 opened with bright prospects for the Antelope team. The first chance for the trackmen to show their wares came in the Hastings Relays. Here Lydic easily won the two mile event with a new record of 10:07. Other Kearney men placed well in their events. Coach James took a five man team to Boulder, Colorado, where they won fourth place in team score. The two mile relay team of Lydic, H. Gall, Watts, and Pat- ton raced to a new relay record. Lambert placed second in the century. A triangular meet with Doane and Grand Island revealed the real strength of the Kearney team. The Antelopes copped nine firsts, eight seconds, and numerous third and fourth places to score 76 4 points to 48 4 for Doane and 34 for Grand Island. Worley was high point man with 17 2 and Wilson was second with 11 points. Several members of the team were running exhibition races at Broken Bow at the time of the triangular meet. The annual N. I. A. A. games were held at Wayne. In winning its first track championship the Kearney team placed in Page 88 Upper Row—Darrtll Noyes. Bill Patton. Douyla?� UehiitiK Orlit? Watts. Russel Wiley. Lower Row—Roy Wilson, Kenneth Worley. every event except the furlong. The final score was 61 points to Kearney, yiVi to Wayne, 43 to Peru and 12 to Chadron. Lydic led the assault on records when he set new marks in the 880 yard dash and the mile run. He also won the two mile for high point man of the meet. Members of the Wayne team established the other new marks. Several new marks were written into the record book for 1931. Leading the list is Frank Lydic vvich new marks in the half mile and the mile. Worley set new marks in the hundred and two-twenty yard dash- es. Wilson moved the broad jump mark out and Kirste equalled the high jump rec- ord. The half mile relay team of Worley, Wiley, Malchow and W. Gall established a new mark for that distance. With seventeen lettennen returning this season prospects are equally bright. The freshman material is especially promising. Gilmore, state prep javelin record holder, strengthens the field team while such men as Erickson, Stegeman, Rtinquist, Romey and Fitz will aid the track men very ma- terially. P.igc SV TRACK SQUAD.

Recognition of minor sports at Kearney State Teachers College was granted for the first time this year. Monograms will be awarded to athletes participating in minor sports that offer outside competition. The major sports are football, basketball, and track. Three sports were automatically listed as minor activi cies: B football, B basketball, and cross-country. If competition outside the school is arranged, other minor sports that will be made possible are swimming, tennis and wrestling. Boxing, handball, and other sports may later be added. Intra-Murai. Sports. An intra-mural basketball league was formed rhis winter that also did much to stimulate interest in athletics. Eight teams were entered in the league, of which ail members were college students. Page 91 Upper Row—Coach Theodore James, Glen I urflmger. Second Row-—A mack, M. Parker. R. Campbell, J. Crowell. W.

The College Training School basketball schedule was the hardest in the history of the school. Games were played during the season with the following high schools: Pleasanton, Sumner, Riverdale, Overton, Kenesaw, Huntley, Shelton, Wood river, Callaway, and Gibbon. The season closed with a record of six wins and fourteen defeats, the outstanding victories being scored over Callaway, Overton, and Sum- ner. In the sectional tournament Ayr was defeated in the first game, hut the boys lost to Elmcreek in the second round. A team captain was chosen preceding each game by the coach, Ted L. James. James Crowell is the only member of the squad to be lost by graduation. Four of the first five regulars are freshmen or sophomores. The training school is expect- ing great things from their team for the next two years. Page 92 ‘ i ‘ Cheer Leaders. jay Lucas, Orva Meyers, Virginia Yager, and Margarettc Simpson were chosen as cheer leaders for the school year 1931-32. These four students were responsible for the fine yells that greeted the visiting teams as well as for the cheers that inspired our own team to victory. When things grew a bit dull Jay was always able to do a hand spring or some other acrobatic stunt that would enliven the occasion. i Page 93 Women’s Gym. The department of physical education and hygiene for women instructs several hundred women who are registered in gym- nastic classes (as pictured above) dancing, swimming or hygiene classes. Every woman in college is thoroughly examined each year by a corps of doctors who work with the department of phys- ical education and hygiene and the de- partment of health. Each defect is record- ed and as soon as it is remedied the cor- rection is filed. These records, for the past nine years, are on fife in the office of the director of physical education for wo- men and have been used for research work by faculty and senior students. In this way the women are protected againsc suffering from poor eyes, infected tonsils or teeth, and so on, and are able to do their best work unhampered by physical ills while in college, Those unable to take the regular work are restricted and put into classes where the work wiil do them the most good. This work is changed according to instructions from their physicians and increased or lessened as they react physically. Everyone needs some form of reaction and the habit of taking recreation regular- ly is firmly established during their college life. Mrs. Janet Dunn has succeeded marvel- ously in building up the department of physical education for women in K. S. T. C. Work in the department is on a par with that of anv school in the state.

Fourteen examiners were reviewed and passed at the college pool March 1, 1932. Four passed for the first time and ten reviewed. This corps has as its object teaching beginners to swim, helping swimmers to perfect strokes and dives and passing those qualified in junior and senior life saving tests. This group makes up the Red Cross Corps for resuscitation and is on call for any accident of suffocation (drowning, asphyxiation, electric shock, smoke, etc.) in the community. Last year about five hundred people learned to swim in Kearney. Much credit for this work is due the college for the cooperation shown in do- nating the use of the pool and to Mrs. Dunn for her untiring efforts the past seven years. 9 Wearers of the K. FOOTBALL.

T. C. Symphony. The State Teachers College Symphony Orchestra has, during the season 1931 32, reached a perfection which may well be considered the climax of its seven years of existence. It has firmly established itself as one of die leading musical organizations of Nebraska and has been of great importance in spreading good music and good will throughout the state. During the past season the orchestra has traveled over a thousand miles, giving con certs in many towns and cities and meeting with enthusiastic audiences which crowded the auditoriums in which it performed. Among the various places visited were North Platte, Broken Bow. Lincoln, Omaha and others. The organization now has approximately sixty members who have been chosen from a large field of applicants. Each year the standards for entrance are raised and the best talent from various towns and cities is sought. Page 98 State Teachers College Band. Clarinets—S. Dahl, R. Heath, L. Wil- son, J.

The Stare Teachers College Band has developed into a very fine musical organ- ization which has done its bit toward mak- ing this an outstanding year for the college. For pep rallies, games, or celebrations, the band is always on hand, and its pep and playing of spirited marches has greatly aided the athletic teams in their contests. From time to time during the year the band has appeared on various programs playing not only marches, but heavier com- positions of real musical worth. The band has built up a musical repertoire of which to be proud. K Page ') ) Upper Row—F. Jacobson, M. Laughlin, M. Hicks, C. B roman, F. String, T. Menke, M. Russom, O. White. Second Row—M.

Rehg. The group was organized originally to meet local demands for short musical con- certs but it soon became so popular that appearances before larger audiences seemed advisable. This year the Ensemble has taken sev- eral trips including one to Shelton, and one to Funk. A two day advertising con- cert trip to North Platte found the men giving concerts in Elmcreek, Overton, Lex- ington, Cozad, Gothenburg, Brady, and North Platte. They appeared in joint con- cert with the St. Cecilians on the local stage and have made several short appear- ances at college functions. In March, the Ensemble and the St. Cecilians prepared and presented the oratorio, The Crusad- ers.” In April, the two organizations, assisted by the college chorus, presented the opera Patience” by Gilbert and Sullivan. Pace I oi The Collegians, In the fall of 1932 The Collegian'5 or- chestra was organized for the purpose of satisfying the students1' cry for better music at school dances. The members are: alto saxophone. Gene Munson; tenor saxophone, Kenneth Wor- ley; first crumpet, Harlan Shennum; second trumpet, Gerald Kitchen; bass, Arnold Shennum; piano, Roy Olson; drums, Russell Enos. Members of the orchestra were chosen by Professor Ttuit, and music was furnished by the Dean’s office. With the organization of this orchestra, sunset dances, all school dances, and class parties have proved to be very successful, for which thanks is due to the cooperative attitude of all concerned for a good, peppy orchestra in K.

Several years ago a group of students who were especially interested in dramatics organized a dub known as the Theatre Arts League, During the several years since its beginning only those students with distinctive dramatic ability have been ac- cepted, and the organization has become one of the most active on the campus. This year, in order to give more mem- bers an opportunity to display their talents before the public, an evening of varied en- tertainment was given. There were three one-act plays given, as well as mu steal numbers and an interpretative dance. The members enjoyed a picnic at Har- mon Field as their social event during the first quarter. At the football games in the fall the new members were given an opportunity to show nor only their dramatic ability but also their ability as salesmen by selling various articles of food. Therefore the financial success of the organization was most sat- isfactory. The members and the sponsor, Mrs. Drake, feel that the purpose of Theatre Arts League has been fully realized this year.

As the oldest departmental club on the campus, Sodalitas Latina has fostered an interest in Roman language and customs for many years. Its membership is com- posed of students who are enrolled in the Latin department or who are interested in the classics. The fact that Latin, should not be con- sidered merely as a dead language is at- tested by the enthusiastic meetings held on the second Monday evening of each month. Activities for this year began with a steak fry at Black’s Woods in September. In De- cember, the feast of Saturnalia was ob- served with a waffle supper at the home of Doris Nelson, after which members of the first year class presented the Latin play, Saturnalia.” This same group entertained high school assembly with another Latin play, Victoria Matris” a few weeks later. On one occasion an ancient oracle sum- moned forth spirits of great Romans long departed, to tell of life in their day. Prior to this seance, members of the Cicero class had procured from the immortal gods a one hour furlough from the Elysian fields for Caesar and Cicero, each of whom gave an impressive talk concerning his earthly achievements.

The council is composed of the president, vice- president, secretary, two representatives from each of the four classes and faculty representatives. Each year the council pub- lishes a student handbook, a copy of which is placed in the hands of every student at the beginning of the fall term. This hand- book contains the constitution of the Stu- dent Government Association, traditions of the school, school yells and songs and a list of the organizations and extra curricular activities of the school. President Bergland attended a meeting in Toledo the latter part of December, as a representative of our Student Govern- ment Association. Page 110 Upper Row—-L. Nyquist. J. Botsford, M. Joyce, R.

Jean Botsford _____„__.—.......... Margaret Anne Joyce Madeline Keenan_________________ LoDesca Nyquist__________________ In the fall of 1921 the Womans’ League was first organized. All of the women stu- dents enrolled in the college are automatic- ally members of this organization. A loan fund amounting to approximately $500 at the present time has been formed by yearly dues of twenty-five cents paid by each young woman. The Women’s League sponsors the col- lege Stexy,” which efficiently handles all typing which college students may desire. They also sponsor the Student Magazine Service which enables the student to se- cure magazines at a minimum cost. The proceeds from these subscriptions and the Stexy” has made it possible for the Wo- man’s League to make a number of worth while contributions to the school. A seventy- five dollar contribution to the Harriett Sutton Memorial Organ Fund was made. Other contributions have been attractive pictures, an antique tea service of brass, attractive china dishes for school parties and teas, table linen, drapes for the office of die Dean of Women, furniture for the room used as the Stexy” office, fifteen lawn seats for the campus, a drinking fountain on the third floor of the main building, one hundred dollars for the new stage curtains and a contribution toward tbe landscaping of the Eva J. Case Hall. This organization meets the fourth Wednesday of each month at which time various problems are taken up and dis- cussed. Tbe last business meeting of the year is held in May at which time die new officers are elected for the coming year and all old business is completed. Page I I 1 Upper Row—O. Johnson. E. Leo. R.

La Sociedad Espanola was organized in the fall of 1923 under the supervision of Miss Ethel Hill who has been the sponsor during the entire period. The aim of the Spanish Club is three- fold: To give the students a broader knowledge of the Spanish speaking people through a study of their history, customs and mode of life; to afford a means of making practical that which is learned in the class room and to enrich the lives of its members by their association with one another. These requirements have been fulfilled as shown by the splendid attendance at the meetings. The membership has in- creased to almost double that of the original club, having reached its highest point this present year. K Page 1 I 3 Uppor R«w-='J. Pierce. IX L ehling, P. Troutnikiu, G.

Mantor ________President Secretary-!' rcasurer Sponsors Nebraska history plays a great part in the story of the west in United States his- tory. Professor C. N. Anderson was a pio- neer in interesting Nebraskans in the history of their state and in showing teachers how to collect, organize and use materials on the subject. With this in mind the K. S. T, C. History Club was organ- ized by him in 1911. The unusually large attendance of the club has proven that members have been interested in the events of the day which have been discussed at our meetings. The enthusiastic participation in the social life of the organization has been enjoyed and appreciated. One of the pleasant features of the club’s activity is its monthly meetings at the homes of its members. The year’s work is usually concluded with a picnic at Fort Kearney.

Faculty Members. Calvin T, Ryan, J. Clark Weaver. The season of 1931-32 marked the be- ginning of a very extensive forensic sched- ule to be undertaken by Kearney Teachers. Antelope debaters participated in a total of thirty-one contests, two tournaments, one state and one national, as well as the Na- tional Pi Kappa Delta Extemporaneous speaking contest, State Old Line Oratorical, State Extemporaneous Speaking, and State Peace Oratorical contest. During the first year as director of de- bate at Kearney State Teachers College, J. Clark Weaver has done much to fur- ther forensic activities. He came here from the University of Wisconsin, Three debate trips, one to the state meet at Lincoln, Nebraska, one to the Pi Kappa Delta National Tournament at Tulsa, Oklahoma, and one before the audiences of surrounding high schools, formed a part of the debate season’s forensic pro- gram. The two men’s debate teams, com- posed of Dyle Brown and Arthur Merrill, Richard Mengler and Allan Smith, met eight schools at Lincoln, Nebraska, while Richard Mengler and Aliam Smith met five outstanding schools from California to Maine in the tournament at Tulsa. The question was, Resolved, That Congress should enact legislation to provide for the centralized control of industry. Allan Smith received second place in the State Forensic League Extemporaneous Speaking contest which was held at Wes- leyan University, Lincoln, March 5, Smith also represented Kearney in the national contest at Tulsa. In the contest at Lincoln, Wesleyan won first place. Last November, Richard Mengler made his debut in the State Old Line Oratorical contest held at Central City. Mengler also placed fourth in the extemporaneous speak- ing against Smith. Pan 117 Blue and Gold Staff.

Advancing from an eleven by sixteen inch edition to a ten galley edition, tile Antelope has completed the twenty-second year of its existence and this year has be- come a member of the Interscholastic Press Association. Since rhe financial success of the paper is based on the contingent fund, The An- telope devotes most of its space each week to school news and to articles written by college students. Four special editions were published this year: literary, football, Blue and Gold, and basketball. Because of the retrenchment policy which the school adopted in the summer of 1931 the position of typist as a third member of the staff was discontinued and the typist is now selected from the journalism class. Not without the assistance of the journ- alism class and the cooperation of the faculty does the staff attempt to do its work. Pape 1 i 9 ASPASIAN LITERARY SOCIETY. Upper Row—Sarah Rhodes.

The senior class presented Gerhardt Hauptmann's Hannele” in the college auditorium on April 6, 1932. The play is the history of a child’s soul. It is a psychological study of the brain of a wretched little outcast who, just before her death experiences delirious trances; in which condition the events and personages of her unhappy life become ob- jective visions, and these visions are seen by the audience.”—James Huneker in Iconoclasts.” The story centers around Hannele in her delirium. In this delirium Hannele sees Matters, the mason, as a vile nightmare; she sees a vision of her mother who gives her a key to heaven; she is prepared for death in shining garments by a fantastic tailor; she is cursed by her step-father while she lies in her coffin; and then a stranger comes and bids her arise. She does so and the neighbors flee. Angels come to carry the child away to heaven and then the scene returns to the almshouse where the sick child lay, only to hear the doctor say, The child is dead.” 12 1 HANNELK. Senior Class Play.

Patience,” a light comic opera by Gil- bert Sullivan, was presented' by the College Chorus the first part of May, under the direction of Mr. Milton F. Rehg. The choruses and cast consisted of stu- dents of the department and no outside talent was used. Because of the interesting plot, charming music and excellent sing- ing and acting, this light opera was very delightfully received. by Patience, a village milk maid, which changes the whole scheme of the plot and the girls cease to love Bunthorne.

One time he returned from the moun- tains with as strange a story as has ever been told. It seems he had been gunning at the time, and had run across a bear cub. Look At Your Shoes...

He leaned his gun against a tree and—but let him tell it: I was playing with this cub,” Allyn said, and I failed to notice the little fellow’s mother come out of the bushes. Before T could reach my gun she had a paw on my shoulder and I was helpless. First, she sent her cub'away; she waited until he was safely out of sight in the brush. Then she turned to me. She swept me into a bear hug. There was terrific pow- er in her huge arms. Tighter and tighter she hugged me!” What did you do?” I interrupted Allyn, breathlessly. Allyn grinned. There was only one thing I could do,” he confessed, I kissed her.” ON A LOT OF THINGS.” She loved him, she lost him. She chased him, she caught him. He died.” And they said that of Evangeline—in the days when girls died of broken hearts and this country was young and headstrong. She loved him. She lost him. She grew pale as a phantom, and died,” could be said of Elaine, the Lily Maid of Astelat—and in those days maidens were shy and England was in love with love. Tell Mother I’ve been there,” accord- ing to Mr. C. T. Ryan is the age most suitable for Miss 1930—and today young women are bold as brass and men flee from their pursuit. Ha! And thus it has been through the ages—Elaine, Evangeline, and I—always the men fleeing from our clutches. Just as we think we have a meal ticket for life they move their habitation or a Guinevere interferes and the game’s up. Evangeline was persistent legend tells us. She followed him, camped on his trail, so to speak till he gave up and passed in his checks. Now I object to her tactics on the grounds that she should have been more wary and ap- proached her prey cautiously or even gone secretly in advance of him and awaited his arrival. Then she could have approached him with one hand on her hip, a sneering smile on her face, a six shooter in her hand, K p; ye 147 and said, Aha, my proud Gabriel—you planned to escape me, didn’t you?—Well, we shall go to the preacher’s immediately.” Her problem would have been solved and her meal ticket assured. But Evangeline didn’t have all the modern methods and couldn’t be expected to know all we do. Then poor Elaine. She was all wrong. The fact that she excited sympathy and tears was to no avail if she was lying in a coffin. Her method had a touch of pathos that goes over very well in some instances, but she carried it too far. She should have grown pale and thin—that much was prop- er but again she lacked the strategy of Juliet or the persistence of Evangeline or the technique of a modern—she died. Now that got her absolutely nowhere at all ex- cept of course to heaven. I expect she made a lovely angel—with big sad eyes and delicate form—but Lancelot evidently didn’t care for angels. Now in contrast—Miss 1930 sights a victim—tall, blonde, broad shouldered. He certainly looks as though he could provide good substantial concentrated food tablets. Ohl—he is a football hero. She awaits him at a common meeting place—the foun- tain—she smiles—starts to drink at the same time he does—they bump heads and she gazes with startling blue eyes into his. He swallows hard, appreciates her beauty and passes on. She doesn’t attract him. The girl analyzes the situation as Elaine failed to do. He is a big strong athletic man—the clinging vine should appeal, but since he is essentially a sports man she should be a regular little sport” and ap- pear interested in football.

I don’t know who ever did, and I have my doubts, but just for atmosphere let’s say so. Well on with the story. My public must be sat- isfied (ha, ha, ha,). Let me see, where was I—Oh, yes, on with the story. Is everyone listening? Move your chairs closer, kid- dies. My, how I love die kiddies—ha, ha, ha—the little brats. My girl Maud has the sweetest little brother. He likes me so much he just won’t go to bed when I come. And clever! is that little boy clever? You know he plays all the newest games like Who’s sitting on your hat now” and if I go to bed will you give me a quarter and if not how much?” He and his sister are something alike. They both have eye trouble—you know, I want this and I want that.” (I know it’s an old one but I’ve got to use something). But Maud is a very cultured girl. Oh, I should say so! She works cross-word puzzles and reads the best of magazines. Why just yesterday she said to me, Gee, Bob, ain’t the Ballyhoo a keen magazine.” Where was I? Oh, yes, on with the story: It was a cold, cold night—father was just getting in (so you know it was plenty late). The moon was full—but that’s neither here nor there, for so was father. Son,” said my father in a clear cut voice, I hear you’re going to become a radio entertainer.” .And I said, Yes, father, it is true.” And he said, Out of my house, you—you—, well it doesn’t make any dif- ference what he said.

The ambulance had arrived from the city and they were taking the dead and injured to town. It wasn't long till they had them all cared for, and they were just ready to take us when a cry came from the wreckage. A most horrible cry of one in extreme pain. We rushed to the □ □ 2116% Central Av Kearney, Nelir. scene, and there before us laid that charm- ing young friend of mine with one leg caught fast under a burning car. We tried to lift it and all the time he kept crying— Save me, save me!” It was no use, we couldn't lift the car. Cut my leg off, don't let me burn to death ' he kept plead- ing, 'Cur my leg off, I must be saved.” There were no instruments there but an old rusty saw that had been hanging in the engine room. There was no time to lose for the fire was coming closer and closer. Some one grabbed the saw and laid it on his bare leg. Everyone held his face from view and all we could hear was crunch, crunch, of the saw going through much honor to stay. So I took my brother’s two suits and left. But little did I know what was in store for me, I said to myself, I shall go to the city and seek my for- tune.” (Can't you just hear me?) So I got on the train bound for Grand Island. You see I’d never been away from borne before; that’s why I didn’t know my folks better. When I boarded the train I met a very pleasing young man. He was a very, very nice young man and I enjoyed his com- pany so much. We chatted along for a short time—(picture that, can’t you—two charming young men chatting in a train). The train was going very fast—extremely so. We reared around a curve, hit a weak spot in the track and piled up in the ditch. Oh, what a terrible sight! Just a mass of human wreckage. I escaped uninjured—but that terrible sight! Oh, I shall never for- get it. Someone’s head over here, an arm over there, and the ditch fast filling with blood.

Finally the leg was severed from his body, and I will see him until my dying day, looking up at us with pain in his eye and saying, Oh, now Fll have to buy me another wooden leg.” —Just Bob. MARY HAD A LITTLE LAMB. Mickey McConnell revises one of his favorite poems to suit the dignity of a col- lege freshman: Mary had a diminutive artiodactyle, its modified hair was translucent as condensed moisture, and everywhere that Mary pro- ceeded the artiodactyle was sure to per- ambulate. It persued her to an institution of learning one day which was against the rule. It made the immature homo sapiens express merriment and exercise activity to see an artiodactyle at an edifice for ac- quiring knowledge. What makes the arti- odactyle regard Mary with strong affec- When You Think of SHOES You Naturally Think of Twidale’s □ □ Eighl Stores in Nobi'aska. A.

Because Mary regards the artiodactyle with such affection you know, the teacher then reparteed,” THE MAN US FELLERS LIKE. The other day Ma sent me over to the grocery store, and there around the stove sat Pa and half a dozen more, talking about their boyhood days and all the things they'd done when they went to school in Illinois in eighteen ninety-one. Said Pa, Those golden days of yore will never come again. The times have surely changed a lot since we have grown to men. This coming generation won’t com- pare with you and me, ’cause these high schools is a spoiling ’em. Now, I can plain- ly see that my boy Henry’s getting wild. Of course, he ain’t so bad, but I can see with half an eye he’ll never match his dad. When T was his age I was earning twenty cents a day, but now he don’t do no tiling but just go to school and play in some fool game of basketball and go clean GASTON MUSIC CO SHEET MUSIC — RECORDS — RADIOS □ □ □ YOrii PATRONAGE APPRECIATED. through his clothes on purpose, so Pll have to buy him new ones, I suppose.” Well� Pa was talking right along, for- getting I was there, till old man Harper jumped right up and raved and tore his hair when Pa began to speak of clothes. He said, Pll tell you, gents, my Hiram came to me last night and asked for forty cents to get a haircut. Now, Pm proud to say that my good wife has always cut his hair and mine with a bowl and butcher-knife; but Hiram’s getting too high-toned since he’s gone down there to school and when Ma tries to cut his hair he’s stubborn as a mule.” Then Mr. White, our neighbor, said it surely was a sin the way his nerves were shattered; he was really getting thin from hearing all those high school yells and flub- dub songs they sang. His place is right across the street, so he knew the worthless gang. And so they talked about the school, and us and the expense. Why, the way they talked you’d think us boys didn’t have a lick of sense. But Mr. Wilkins saw chat I was feeling kind of cheap, so he jumped across the counter, saying, Let that chatter keep. I keep this store to sell you beans and soda, even socks, but I don’t care to have you perch upon my cracker-box and brag and boast about the days when Grandpa was a child. Why, compared with things you used to do, our young folks are quite mild. That school you prate so much about back there in Illinois I went to, just the same as you, when I, coo, was a boy. Now, I remember how my dad, with all his might and main would try when I came home at night to make me go again the next day, but these lads of ours have forty- seven fits if they must stay at home a day, or if school ever quits.
