I Printing by The Hun Printing Company Kearney, Nebraska Photographs by The Anderson Studio Kearney, Nebraska I StSIMffillKft CDITOPi BUSINESS MCP GCNCVI-CV6 KeetA ; 17752283 A fair proportion of the activities at the State Teachers College in Kearney from registration days in September to commencement days in May is the scope of the Bine and Gold. Because our purpose is to leave an accurate record of the year 1935. we are interested in no other theme than college life and activities in Kearney. To the same degree that this book brings you an increasing amount of pleasure in the future, the staff will enjoy a reward for its efforts. Because education everywhere is on trial, because its activities should be tested in the light of their con- tributions to the fuller development of individuals who will intelligently participate in an organized society, we dedicate this volume to those activities and organiza- tions which are doing something toward that develop- ment. It is with the hope that our campus will continue to exemplify a true spirit of democracy that we dedi- cate the 1935 Blue and Gold to student activities in which there is a vision of a new society that will give to each person an opportunity to develop his talents for the best use in the group. Book One - Administration Book Two — The College Book Three - - The Classes Book Four - - College Fite Tribute to Dr. A. O. Thomas We honor ourselves, we honor the college in paying homage to Dr. Thomas who died January 30, 1935. Dr. Thomas died a very rich man. We arc not alone in our sense of loss, in our desire to pay tribute to a true friend, to a great man. Flowers, messages of sympathy, words of praise have come from almost every country in the world. Few men have been so universally mourned or so universally honored. Few have received greater encomium. Kearney State Teachers College has suffered a peculiarly personal loss, in the passing of Dr. Thomas who was the first president of our college. We were indeed fortunate to have so wise and so able a leader during our pioneer years. His spirit of tireless energy, undaunted courage, boundless faith, infinite patience, and his clear-seeing blazed the first lap of the Kearney College trail against great odds. He laid a broad, solid foundation upon which his successors have builded an institution of which we are justly proud. Though called to larger fields of endeavor, Kearney always held a warm place in Dr. Thomas’ heart. Busy as he was, honored as he was, he never lost his interest in the welfare of this college nor ambition for its progress. For as he laid the foundation stone upon stone, he dreamed that through the development of this institution he would realize his vision of education. During the years which have passed since Dr. Thomas left Kearney, this vision of what education could be, what it should be, guided him along the path which led to the heights where he stood out, a lone figure, as founder of the World Federation of Education Associations of which organization he was secretary-general at the time of his death. Dr. Thomas attained the acme of position and of recognition in his chosen field. His Kearney friends in the college and in the community followed his ever-widening sphere of influence and his phenomenal success with pride and satisfaction. Dr. Thomas’ inspirational leadership was most unusual, but he was more richly en- dowed with a genius for friendship. His was a warm, sincere friendship, with an eagerness to serve others. May I give a homely example? One evening as I was sitting on the porch, Dr. Thomas came along with a mattress on his back. After office hours he had visited a student quarantined for smallpox. Finding the bed unsuitable for a sick boy, he was taking him a mattress from his own home. Dr. Thomas rarely forgot a face. For each personality seemed to be another interesting chapter in the great living book of human nature. This explains in part Dr. Thomas’ uncanny ability to understand and to work with people. His philosophy was that one should learn and consider the other person’s point of view before reaching a decision or passing judgment. The world is better, richer for Dr. Thomas1’ long and useful life. A life that is a wonderful example of what a man of sterling character, high aspirations, unconquerable spirit, and of vision, can achieve. A life that is a challenge to each one of us. Page Nine President George E. Martin Anyone who wishes to sec the president of our college needs only to stand a few minutes in the corridors—first, second, or third floors. Tall, gray-haired, gray-eyed, and usually gray-suited. President George E. Martin is everywhere at once, although he never seems to hurry. President Martin came to Kearney twenty years ago as head of the English department; later he became director of the teacher training department, and in 1919, he began his work as administrator. Mr. Martin received his B. A. from the University of Nebraska in 1914, and bis M. A. from Columbia University in 1919. In an interview, Mr. Martin said: The gratifying thing to me is chat the institution has been converted from a two-year school to a college of four years’ training. In 1916, we were affiliated with the North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools with a nominal affiliation. In 1933, we were fully accredited with that association.” During President Martin’s incumbency, the student enrollment has doubled, and so has the number on the faculty. The curriculums have been sharply differentiated. Tw'o new buildings have been constructed. The work of each department has been revised and made more efficient. Briefly, President Martin has been able to transfer his vision of an efficient teacher training institution into a reality'. There is no work of which one may be so proud as that of a professional teacher,” Mr. Martin believes. Pago Ten The Administration Staff Usually wc do not give our affection ro the same persons to whom we give our money (somewhat unwillingly!), but every rule has its exception. Mrs. Bessie Black, bursar of the college since 1911, is the lady who presides over the money hags, and at the beginning of each quarter, it is to her that we reluctantly give our money; however her charming smile makes us forget our empty purses. And of course, if we don't lose our textbooks or break chemistry apparatus, it is probable chat Mrs. Black will return several of our dollars at the end of the quarter—only to take them again at the beginning of the next term! No, she isn't a sophomore, the litrle lady in the knit dress; she's Mrs. Elsie Leake, secretary of the extension department. It is she who puts your name on the precious blue, white, pink, or yellow card which entitles you to watch the games and attend the lyceum programs. She has been in the office” for six years; just how it existed before her coming is another unsolved mystery. Miss Edith Smithey has served the college in one way or another since there has been one to serve; from the lowly station of filing clerk, she has progressed to that exalted position of registrar. She has her A. B. in Education, from K. S. T. C., a degree which she earned in those hours when her official duties did not demand all her time. Efficient and helpful, Miss Smithey is also the checker-upper” who finds out whether or not you have taken your Physical Education. She is one of the most loyal boosters of the school. Miss Dorothy Williams has had the imposing title of Secretary to the President” for nine years. Mr. Martin once said, Maybe I am the president, but Miss Williams does the work.” She has been, for the past two years, a member of the Y. W. C. A. advisory hoard. Warren H. Steinbarh Lulu E.

Dode Graham, Student Council president, was our representative. Summarizing the convention at a convocation program held soon after his return, Mr. Graham named as his objectives for council work: (1) That the student handbook be revised, (2) The constitution of the Student Government Association be amended with r egard to its election system, and (3) That the Student Council sponsor an all-college spring festival. Our Student Government Association was organized to meet the request of the students that they be allowed to participate in school government. It has the varied purposes of promoting the scholastic and moral tone of the college; strengthening the cordial relation- ships existing between the students and faculty members; and exercising its delegated powers over the conduct of students on and olf the compus. Page TWclvi The Alumni Association The Alumni Association of the State Normal and Teachers College at Kearney was organized in 1906, It now consists of 1035 members who have been granted the bachelor degree besides many who have received the junior college diploma. In 1927 the Alumni Association adopted articles of incorporation. At this time it was decided that the general nature of the business to be transacted shall be the promotion of the influence of the Nebraska State Normal and Teachers College at Kearney; the increase of the members of its students and graduates; the development of plans for the usefulness of the Placing Bureau and the welfare of the alumni. Any one may become a member of the association by purchasing one or more shares of preferred stock at five dollars per share. An alumnus of this school may become a life member of the Association by purchasing one share of common stock. The Alumni Association bought and paid for the Harriet Sutton memorial pipe organ, which was installed and presented to the school on the silver anniversary of the college, June 1930. Two years later an additional set of scops was added to the organ. At this time the association is sponsoring a project to improve the acoustic properties of the auditorium. Alumni live in forty-six states of the Union and in at least five different foreign countries. Although this is a teachers college our graduates are to be found in nearly all die professions. A memorial edition of The Antelope, honoring Dr. A. O. Thomas, was mailed to all alumni in March, A reception to the members of the senior and sophomore classes was given in April. In June occurs the annual meeting and home coming day of the association, at which time the classes of 1915 and 1925 are special guests; the chief event is the alumni dinner. ,r i� SH Page Thirteen Dean of Women All girls in school arc members of Women’s League, A group of girls known as Dean's Council, chosen from classes and campus organizations, forms the executive body of Women’s League. Each year the Dean’s Council sponsors the sale of magazines during the summer quarter. The commission re- ceived from these sales lias made possible several contributions to the school during the last few years. Among the more outstanding have been: a brass tea service, linen, seats for the campus and the dormitory gardens, a one hundred dollar payment on the pipe organ, another one hundred dollar con- tribution toward the stage curtains, the third floor drinking fountain, four oil paintings, dishes for school functions, and jardinieres and vases for decoration. This year fifty dollars was expended for beautifying Mrs. Elliott’s office. Dean Elliott Contributions from Women’s League members maintain a loan fund which over a period of years has accumulated almost five hundred dollars. Under the direction of Genevieve Keenan the Council sponsored the Hallowe’en Festival, one of the largest all-school affairs of the year. Neither students nor townspeople will soon forget the parade and the stunts which preceded the costume dance held in the gym rhat night. A hay rack decorated to resemble the home of The Old Woman Who Lived in the Shoe” gave first prize among the floats to the girls of Green Terrace. First place among the stunts went to a comic boxing match presented by the Y. M. C. A. The horse drawn hearse complete with flower girls, mourners, torch bearers, and grave diggers followed by the Caledonian float took second place in the float contest, while the burial service which re- vealed the deceased to be Wayne Teachers College gave the Cals second in the stunts as well. Third place among stunts went to the Aspasiam; in the floats, to the Y. W, C. A. Dean's Council Top Row—G. Keenan. E. Albrecht. V. Bart, C. Carter. C, Clark, A. Eckhardt. First Row—E. Forsyth, £ . Hayhuist, V. Merryman. I., Moschel, M. Murray, E. Nelson, J. Schneider. Page Fourteen Dean of Men The Men's Council is an organization consisting of the adviser, Dean Anderson, and representatives from each class and each major organization in the school. The student representatives of the council are Mate Pilling, president; William Holtrop, vice president; Hugh Eisenhart, secretary and treasurer; Dick Hartford, Darrell Stultz, Herbert Smith and Joe Jacobson. The purpose of the organization is to arrange programs for the men’s meetings and to take care of the men’s loan fund. This council has nothing to do with the general routine of the dean's business but is merely an aid to him by taking the duties already mentioned off his shoulders. The council meets twice each month, at which times it con- ducts the necessary business and arranges for the men’s meetings which are held the third Thursday of each month. The council tries to arrange for student programs as much as possible. The men’s loan fund is controlled by the finance committee consisting of the Men’s Council, Dean Anderson, and President Martin. All loans arc passed upon by this com- mittee before they are made. The committee reports that the fund has been increased very materially in the last two years. The men students have cooperated in a campaign to raise money for this purpose, from which a number of deserving students have received aid. Dr. J. T. Anderson, in addition to his instructional duties, is the Dean of Men and the adviser of the Men’s Council, and serves on many of the most important faculty' committees. The enrollment in his classes is large because of his popularity with the students who know him. In discussing the popularity of his classes one student said, Mr. Anderson is my idea of an ideal teacher. I admire his method of teaching.” Mr. Anderson has a pleasing personality and is always willing to help a student with his problems and perplexities.

Hazel Rea The Library The library is the most helpful department in the college, and the librarians try from year to year to make it more helpful to students. It is administered by Miss Anna V. Jennings, the librarian, who received her B. L. S. degree from the University of Illinois in 190S. Miss Jennings has been in her present position for twenty-nine years. She is assisted by Miss Hazel Rea, the library cataloguer, who received her B. S. degree from Southwest Missouri State Teachers College in 1925; her B, S. degree in Library Science from the University of Illinois in 1927; her A. M. degree from the same institution in 1929; and she did six weeks of graduate study at Columbia University in the summer of 1932. Miss Rea has been in her present position four years. Miss Floy C, Carroll is the supervisor of the A. O. Thomas School libraries. She received her A. B. degree from Knox College in 1925; her B. S. degree in Library Science from the University of Illinois in 1927; her A. M. degree from the same institution in 1929. Miss Carroll has been employed here five years. These librarians are assisted by an efficient student force consisting of Harriet Graf, the typist, Alvin Anderson, Carlisle Anderson, Marion Nelson, Matt Pilling, Evelyne Bussell, and Gladys Nelson. The library is furnished for the students’ advantage and, to make it a greater advantage, it has been kept open evenings since the depression to give students, who have had to work during the day to make their way through college, an opportunity to use it. A browsing corner which students may use during their leisure time has been provided. Pictures are bought with the lost book and fine funds. Last year the painting October Gold” by Elizabeth Dolan was added to the wall attractions. This is one of Miss Dolan’s outstanding pictures. She is a Nebraska artist and has murals in the State Capitol and Morrell Hall at Lincoln. The library has a textbook collection of elementary and secondary books. This collec- tion was started in the summer of 1934. The texts are furnished by the publishers and can- not be removed from the library. This textbook library opens into the Elementary school library and is administered by its librarian. M. Pilling. A- Anderson. C. Anderson. W. Bruce. E. Bussell. H. Graf, D. Nelson. M. Nelson. Page Sixteen The library is a very interesting place to visit. As one steps into the door and casts a glance over the room he will notice many studious individuals and some who are not so inclined. In one section he may see a young man and a young woman enjoying each other’s conversation and then with the sudden appearance of the librarian,—dropped heads, opened books and red faces, I often wonder who is in the far corner of the library that attracts the attention of Eddie” E. and yet he doesn’t dare get any closer than within the vision of his spy glasses. Another puzzling situation to the writer is why such intellectuals as Halvor C. will fall asleep in the library and actually fall off their chair. But the greatest mystery is why LeRoy H. and Jean K. do not sit at the same table except certain periods of the day. A few words of commendation, or should I say condemnation, concerning the desk staff would not be out of place- Alvin Doc” Anderson has been on the staff the longest of any other member; tn fact he has been there so long that he has gone the way of all men. I suppose he thinks he has a life job, but the catch to it is that he does have (but not in the library). It is reported that Matt Pilling is following in Doc’s” footsteps and it won’t be long until he will also have a life position. (Better think twice. Matt.) Archie” Nelson is doomed to be an old bachelor as he only asks ’em once,” and Bill” Anderson’s career is just begun. He has risen from the ice wagon to the pulpit and is still striving toward a higher goal. (Good luck to you, Bill.”) Do the college students concentrate while studying in the library? Everyone has a right to his own opinion but I hold to the negative. To prove my point I recall a day when all of a sudden there was an annoying disturbance in the library caused by the shifting of chairs, and the craning of necks, and then all of a sudden silence—Chief Hail Storm had begun to speak. I sometimes wonder if we college students will grow up. Why do we laugh and crane our necks when a little shaver” who doesn’t know any better talks aloud in the library or when a pup” slips in through the door and runs around through the aisles? In spite of all of this folly, which happens only once in a while, the students accomplish a great deal in the library toward the advancement of their college education. Even though brothers and sisters cannot use the same chair—see the Turners for details—and the girls have to be particular to whom they talk, we are proud of the library and the librarians who helped so materially in developing it into the extensive library that it is. Page Sewn teen P.igii Eugtitcirn The Art Department The Art Department has three purposes. The first is to develop an appreciation of art; the second is to develop skill in art; and the third is to train art teachers. In order to accomplish these purposes it is necessary to have efficient instructors. Miss Marion C. Smith is the head of the department and has had extensive art training. She has attended the Art department of the University of Nebraska, the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, Chicago Art Institute, Minneapolis Handicraft Guild, and New York Art League Landscape School, and she is a pupil of Anshultz, Parker, Chase, Hawthorne, Breckenridge, Carlson, Batch- elder, and J oh on not. She received her B. F, A. degree from the Nebraska State Teachers College, Kearney, in 1932. Miss Smith came to Kearney with the opening of the State Normal. She is assisted by Miss Minnie E. Larson, who received her A. B. degree from the Nebraska State Teachers College in 1924 and her A. M. degree from the University of Chicago in 1931. It is very interesting to browse around in the art rooms and study the drawings, designs, pictures, and portraits which are made by the students. We are proud of our art department and the type of work it is doing. Many of the art students are good amateur artists, in fact, we have pictures in our library which have been painted by our students and others which are painted by the art instructors. Miss Smith informs me that nothing ever happens in the art department; that there is never a smile or a chuckle. This leads me to the conclusion that the art students are very industrious and never have time to waste by taking their attention from their work. However, Miss Smith realizes that all work and no play makes jack a dull boy” and calls time out for a few' minutes giving the students a much needed relaxation and tells them about some of her experiences which she had on the way to school or something about her pets (animals, not students), or relate a new joke which she just heard or read. After this short breathing spell the students recover their paint brushes, scissors, and other useful paraphernalia and resume their artistic duties. s; Marion C. Smith Minnie E. Larson Pane Twenty William E. Bruner Mildred E. Hansen Carrie F. Ludden Biological Science Department Biology—the livest department in the college. Lest other departments object too strongly, we hasten to suggest that perhaps alive is the word. Here there can he no argu- ment; no other department has so much to do with things that are actually living. The living creatures range from minute, squirming bacteria to a rather vociferous rooster whose crowing has kept more than one eight o’clock class from going to sleep. Lazy goldfish, including two that, it is hinted, belonged to President Martin, swim about in the aquariums; snails gaze at the world from their impressive-sounding snaileries. There are rats, too, and from time to time dogs and cats, snakes and salamanders. Occasionally the unsuspect- ing rats are fed alcohol, in experiments which prove to the satisfaction of everyone, except perhaps to the inebriated rats, that alcohol docs them no good. Dr. W. E. Bruner, whose B. S., A, M., and Ph. D. degrees are all from the University of Nebraska, ts the head of the biological science department. Miss Carrie E. Ludden, who received her B. of Ed. from the Nebraska State Teachers College in Kearney, is the other classroom instructor. Several times in the past. Miss Ludden has made special marine studies on the west coast. Mrs. Chris Hansen, full time laboratory assistant, completes the teaching staff of the department. Since the department has so much to do with living things, it is necessary that it be equipped with much material and apparatus for visual education. A projection microscope is available for displaying the jelly-like amoeba or the gentlemanly paramecium, gently bumping his environment. There is a slide projector, too. and many slides. Plaster of Paris models, posters, and mounted specimens are also used to aid in teaching the various subjects. The ever growing museum is filled with every sort of exhibit imaginable, from, snake skins to star fish—-from beetles to blunderbusses. In the botany laboratory there are many forms of plant life and charts showing the various stages of plant development. The only subject that ever made Mark Twain cynical, the weather, is also studied in the department. Busy students, with one eye on the barometer, learn why Californians come home to Nebraska. Pre-medics, future doctors and nurses, do much of their junior college work in the biological science department. Most of these students belong to the Pre-medic club, which the department sponsors. These students are particularly interested in the anatomy, physiology, and bacteriology classes. Pre-Medic There are several groups of students at Kearney State Teachers College who are pre- paring for other professions than teaching. The pre-medics, who include not only future doctors and surgeons hut also future nurses, are one of these groups. To encourage interest in the medical profession, the pre-medic club has been organized. The club meets the first Monday of every month. Apparently Matt Pilling, librarian, newly elected vice president of the student council, and Caledonian, misses twenty-five per cent of the regular Monday evening fraternity meetings since he is the pre-medic president. Perhaps those with an eye on the future forgive his absences on the theory that it might be well to have an old fraternity brother who is a doctor. There is a chance that it would discourage too insistent demands for payment of long due doctor bills. Lest the Phi Tans be slighted in such an arrangement. Roland Brown is the vice president. Then, lest the nurses be slighted, the organization elected Mable Miller as secretary-treasurer. Miss Ludden, an instructor in the Biology department, is the sponsor of the organiza- tion. Then, as sort of unofficial but very active sponsors of the club, are the members of the medical profession in Kearney, who have done a great deal to make the organization a success. Many times they have served as speakers for the club programs. Occasionally, at their invitation, the club visits the hospitals to observe operations and other surgical and medical procedure. Of course, pre-medics are interested, primarily, in science, most of them majoring in either biology or physical science. Of the physical sciences, chemistry, is of the greatest interest to them. The biology courses they take include zoology, bacteriology, physiology, and anatomy. In the latter class they engage in a sort of medical jig saw puzzle: they dismantle some bird or animal, remove the flesh from the bones by different means, including the obvious, very slow and odorous one of allowing it to decay, and then assemble the bleached bones to form a skeleton. No doubt they flunk” if they place the feet where the hands ought to be; or do animals have hands and feet? But that is for the pre-medics to worry about. Top Row—-P. Abrahnmson, D. Elm, W. Cruse.

Sutton Commercial Education The commercial department has served commercial students for twenty-nine years. It has grown extensively in that time and has continuously increased in popularity. President Martin made the statement in presenting the faculty to the freshman students during freshman registration that the commercial department is the most popular department in the institution.” Such popularity of a department is due to one or more of these three reasons: the personnel of the faculty, a desire for snap courses, and the increased demand for commercial teachers and business-trained workers. I shall not try to choose the reason but shall add this comment: To those who say commercial courses are a snap, I, the writer—’being a commercial major—suggest that they enroll for a course in shorthand, type- writing, and accounting; and I wager that after the first quarter they will have changed their opinion. The commercial department always has a large enrollment. Students who wish to take commercial courses are always eager to be the first ones to register, for they know that early on registration day President Martin will announce, The following classes are closed Commercial Education 120, etc.” Mrs. Sutton says, The typewriting room is always full and more machines have been added until now there is scarcely room enough left to get in and out; and yet there are always students on the waiting list ' The work done in this department is of superior quality. This college was the champion in the Nebraska commercial contests for colleges in 1922, 1923 and 1925. Since that time the contests have been discontinued. Many commercial teaching positions in this section of the state and many office positions are filled by commercial majors from this institution. The department has been served by three heads. Professor Clarence A. Murch served from 1905 to 1910, and was succeeded by Professor Benjamin H. Patterson, who served until L928. Professor Charles Ape I succeeded him. Professors Murch and Patterson died while employed here. At the present time the department is served by three competent instructors: Professor Charles Apel, who obtained his A, B, degree from Wesley College in 1925, and his M. S, degree in 1926 from the same institution; Mrs. Ethel Sutton, who obtained her B. Ed. degree from Nebraska State Teachers College, Kearney, in 1917, her A. B. degree from the same institution in 1918, and her A. M. degree from Columbia University in 1932; and Miss Mildred Payne, who obtained her B. S. degree from the State Teachers College at Warrensburg, Missouri, in 1925, her A. M. degree from the University of Missouri in 1931, and did graduate study on her doctorate at the University of Iowa, in 1931-32.

The Nu (which is the thirteenth letter of the Greek alphabet) chapter was organized in K. S. T, C. July 20, 1929, with Mrs. Ethel Sutton as acting sponsor. Wayne Wilson is the president Melvin Stedman, vice president, both of whom are seniors Mona Melvin is treasurer, Elaine Shostrom, secretary, and Janet Ingram, historian These officers with the addition of the sponsor, Mrs. Sutton, Miss Mildred Payne, Mr. Charles Apel, and Kenneth Worley made up the active membership during the first two quarters of the year. The organization is strictly honorary and at the end of the first quarter only four students were eligible for admittance. The formal initiation for these students was held January 29 at the Grantham. A six-thirty dinner was served after which the initiation took place. The four new members admitted to the Nu chapter were Elvera Anderson, Max Houtchens, Donald Heinemeyer, and Vernon Payne. All the honorary and active members were present at the dinner, with die addition of Mrs, Charles Apel and Mrs. Kenneth Worley as guests, Mrs. Leona Klein Nelson, Madeline Keenan, Ruth Reddy, and Dorothy Williams were the alumnae present. The total membership of the Nu chapter consists of fifty-four members, but only ten of these are active and three are honorary. The limited membership is the result of the high .scholastic standing required for admittance. Of the active members there are many seniors who are graduating this spring. Their graduation will again leave the organization with only enough members to fill the offices. The Nu chapter has sponsored convocation programs, printed the Nu News,” which is sent to other chapters of Pi Omega Pi, and has its own social activities. Whenever this group meets for a social evening, its members are always assured a good time. The Nu chapter sends a delegation every other year, if possible, to the National Counc 1 of Pi Omega Pi. Edwin Swanson and Helen Bretz have represented this chapter at the last two meetings, which were held in Chicago. The chapter is now considering ways and means for sending a delegate to the Council next fall. Piif-e Twenty-four Tironian Club The Tironian club was organized in 1932, in compliance with a request from the local chapter of Pi Omega Pi, national honorary commercial fraternity to provide a depart- mental activity for all commercial students. Nine hours of commercial education is the minimum requirement for membership, thus everyone who is interested in commerce is eligible. What does Tironian mean?” is a question frequently asked of members of this club. Tiro, the first person to take dictation in shorthand, as far as records show, and incidentally Cicero's secretary, was the inspiration for the club name. Although one of the youngest organizations on the campus, the membership of Tironians compares favorably with chat of most of the older organizations. Its membership, like the enrollment in the commercial department, is increasing each quarter, and this speaks well for all concerned. The club is sponsored by Mr. ApcI, and its success may be attributed largely to his efforts. The purpose of the Tironian club is essentially to provide modern progressive business methods and systems for teachers in training although the social aspect is not neglected. Interesting and instructive programs are planned for the meetings, which are held once a month. Talks on subjects relating to commerce have been given on several occasions by members of the faculty or by local business men. Some social function is usually the attraction for at least one meeting of each quarter. Frequently it is a bridge party (Yes, Mr. Apel, second only to Culbertson, is the sponsor.) Last spring the club presented in convocation a three-act play, The Survival of the Fittest,” featuring the different types of girls in a business office. The play was directed by Janet Ingram and Mr. Apel. Second quarter officers are: Evelyn Jacobson .........................................

In this institution the department of education olfers to students a variety of courses which serve as a back- ground for an understanding of the educational processes, and give the principles upon which teachers may base their practices. As a co-ordinating factor the education department is indispensable since its courses correlate closely with instruction received in other departments of the institution and prepare directly for work in the laboratory schools. Interest in the held of education has been further stimulated this year through student membership in the National Education Association. This plan was presented and sponsored by the College Unit of the N. E. A,, but the instructors in the education department were especially interested and loyal advocares of such membership. Forty-five seniors of this college have become members of the organization and have in this way shown their profes- sional spirit, no small amount of which undoubtedly has been developed through then work in the education department. The teaching personnel of the department includes three full time teachers. Dr. W. H. Zeigel received his B. S. in Education from Kirksville State Teachers College; his A. M.t and Ph. D. degrees from the University of Missouri. In addition to his academic prepara- tion Dr. Zeigel conducted an educational survey in Missouri, and in 1930 he was selected to assist in the National Survey of Secondary Education, in connection with which he made valuable contributions to this phase of education. Committees claim no small share of Dr. Zcigcl’s time for he is chairman of two important committees and an active member of several others. An efficient head of the department. Dr. Zeigel is continually striving toward the improvement of the department and of the school. Miss Lulu E. Wirt was graduated from the University of Nebraska, took graduate work at the University of Chicago, and received her master’s degree from Columbia Uni- versity, Miss Wirt’s broad experience in high school and social work, as well as her experience as Dean of Women, especially qualify her for the fields of secondary and social education. Always eager for more progressive methods and ideas, Miss Wirt’s openminded- ncss toward and interest in her profession make her the more capable. Mr, H. G. Stout received his A, B. and A. M. degrees from the University of Nebraska, and has done graduate work at the University of Chicago, as well as one year’s work on his doctorate at the University of Nebraska. Mr. Stout’s experience in public schools gives him an insight into the practical problems of education, and his keen sense of humor is regarded by his students as an invaluable attribute. Assisting in the department, Dr. J. T. Anderson divides his time between the duties of professor of education and those of Dean of Men. Mrs. Edna Nye, who has her master’s degree from Iowa University, has been teaching courses in elementary education during the last two quarters. Other courses in primary and intermediate education have been conducted from time to time by Mrs. Agnes Anderson «mid Miss Blanche Skinner, Pag« Twenty-si English Department Mr. Calvin T. Ryan, the most sought-after” man in college! He is asked to speak at church, over the radio, at commencements, at book clubs, even at home economics con- ventions. (Although perhaps he does know something about cooking; at least, we know that he occasionally fries bacon and eggs for hitch-hikers who haven’t eaten for two days!) Seriously, however, Mr. Ryan’s little jokes and rules have given more students a feeling and a love for English chan all the books ever written in the field. Many of us feel, after com- mitting a grammatical blunder, as did the woman in one of bis classes; he said, Every time I say 'be back” I think of you!” Mr. Ryan has his A. B. and A. M. from Washington College, and his Ed. M. from Harvard; he attended George Washington University three years, doing graduate work. He has had many articles published; his hobby is health, and be writes articles on phases of that subject, as well as on phases of English. Mr. Ryan conducts The Sunday School of the Air” over KGFW each week. During National Book Week, he gave a series of broadcasts concerning children’s books. Perhaps one of the highest compliments ever paid Mr. Ryan is, He is an ideal teacher, an ideal friend, an ideal father!” Miss Mary Crawford is the confidante of all potential poets; her classes in creative writing are havens of delight for struggling student-authors. Her classes in Shakespeare, Browning, and the romantic poets are always large, which proves that students do like poetry, when Miss Crawford teaches it. She has her A. B. and A. M. from the University of Nebraska. Another teacher of literature, as well as of constructive English is Miss Cora O’Connell. Her ready smile and friendly How d’ you do,” have made her many friends. Miss O’Cotinell has her B. A. from the University of Nebraska. Mr. J. Clark Weaver has made our college and its students dramatic-conscious; he has directed and produced three Shakespearean dramas, as well as many modern plays during the last three or four years. He took his B. A, from Washington and his Ph. M. from the University of Wisconsin. Incidentally, Mr, Weaver can make excellent coffee; his only abomination is h:s first name. Kearney’s debate coach, Mr. J. D, Hansen, also supervises the classes in speech at the laboratory school. Mr, Hansen has his A. B. and his A, M. from the University of Iowa, and he has taken graduate work at the Universities of Wisconsin and Southern California. C. T. Ryan Mary M. Crawford J. D, Hansen Cora O’Connell J. Clark Weaver Page Twenty -seven Sigma Tau Delta If students arc to write successfully, they need stimulation and encouragement. To provide these, Xi Beta chapter of Sigma Tau Delta, national honorary English fraternity, was organized with Mr. C. T. Ryan as sponsor. Since that time the chapter has sought to provide constant incentives for students interested in creative writing. Each year freshman writers are given an opportunity to submit essays to be judged by the local organization. It is indeed remarkable that so many freshmen take advantage of this opportunity and produce material of such high literary merit. This year there was an especially large amount of creditable material submitted. Willard Nyquist of Axtell won the first prize for his essay, The Unhandy Man,” and Charles Hanson of Loomis won second place with his essay, Cats.” At the beginning of this year there were only two active members in the fraternity, Genevieve Keenan, who was formerly the editor of The Antelope, and Ralph Fortna, the editor of last year’s Antler. Bryce Newman, Royal Henline, Stanley Johnson. Margaret Murray, Wanda Jeanne Baxter, Doris Wright, and Ardis Olsen become members at the first initiation ceremony. At the end of the second quarter the active membership was increased to eleven by the initiation of Miriam Freridis and Juanita Lang. Besides sponsoring the freshman essay contest. Sigma Tau Delta is this year publishing the second number of a campus literary magazine, The Antler,” for which any student may sub- mit his work, be it short stories, long stories, essays, poems, or just plain verse. All students are invited to do creative writing for this magazine. The outstanding event of the year was the customary Christmas dinner, which was attended by alumni as well as active members. The speaker of the evening was Mr. Ryan, who talked about The Creative Mind in a Mechanistic World,” a challenge to all young writers. At the last meeting of this school year, the members of Sigma Tau Delta were entertained at the Ryan home at a breakfast.

Hansen Carl Frame� Pi Kappa Delta Dedicated to the advancement of forensics, the Nebraska Zeca chapter of Pi Kappa Delta completed its most active season this spring when it entertained representatives of seven colleges at the provincial tour name nr and convention of Nebraska and Colorado. The local chapter of the National Honorary Forensic fraternity, America’s largest honorary group, introduced two inovations to forensica at Kearney this year, when it sponsored both an international debate and a high school invitational debate tournament. In December, the speech group brought two British debaters to Kearney and sponsored a meeting between the University of London men, David Scholes and JL Hirshfield, who were the leading debaters of Great Britain’s student union, and the Kearney team, George Henigan and Don Smith. More than seven hundred students and townspeople came to the inter- national argument which concerned the nationalization of munitions. Nearly fifty students from high schools within a radius of one hundred miles from Kearney, attended the Pi Kappa Delta invitational meet on February 9. The success of this first tournament has encouraged the forensic group to lay plans for making such a competition am annual event at Kearney. While sponsoring such meetings, members of the local chapter were also active in inter-collegiate forensics, participating in the practice tournament of the Nebraska forensics association, the Hutchinson, Kansas College tournament and a meeting with Oregon’s Pacific University debaters. Kearney’s “A” debate team placed forth among eleven colleges in the competition. Ending the season, the forensic fraternity sponsored rhe first major debate tournament ever held at Kearney, when the Pi Kappa Delta provincial meet was conducted here. With the national Pi Kappa Delta president, George McCarty, in attendance, this tournament, considered one of the strongest in America on a basis of the records of the colleges competing proceeded with a maximum of smoothness. Hastings College won the sweepstakes award. Kearney men’s A debate team losr a chance to oppose Hastings in the finals when it was eliminated by the Nebraska Wesleyan A” team in a semi-final encounter. Socially, the forensic group was also active, holding two dinners during the course of the year’s work and sponsoring two all-college dances. Don Smith Glen Borden George Henigan Pag� Twenty-nine ...

Wright, Theatre Arts League Whatever might be lacking in quantity in the college dramatic organization (there are about twelve active members) is more than made up for in the qualiry of the members. You see, in order to become a member of T. A. L„ you must have forty merits; these honor points arc given to those participating in, writing, or producing plays. Naturally only those who are truly interested in dramatics are willing to juggle scenery, slap on make-up, and do the thousand and one other things to make a play a success. Consequently those few willing ones constitute the promoters of dramatics in our college. Last October (somewhere near Hallowe'en) a very secret, very scarey, very solemn initiation took place in the loft of a local barn. Edith Albrecht, Erselia Barton, Ortho Ebright, Royal Henline, Wilfred Tressider, and Woodrow Wirsig were the neophytes who, upon that occasion, became Thespians. Theater Arts has furnished the ushers for the lyceum numbers sponsored! by the school; it has sponsored play writing contests; it has held open meetings; it has also held tryouts and furnished material for the one act play production class. A pot luck dinner was held at Mrs, Barton’s home in March; it was then that we learned that '’Budge” Ebright could scallop potatoes like nobody else, and that George Richardson had a heretofore un- known ability for whipping cream. Theater Arts sponsored the production of Comedy of Errors” given several times this year. Below, is a picture of one of the sets used in that play. COMEDY OF ERRORS. Pag Thi Aspasians For those girls who are literary minded” Aspasians provides an interesting and enter- taining activity. It is the purpose of this literary club to give its members an opportunity to become more efficient in public speaking and to enable them to conduct meetings according to parliamentary procedure, which is an important phase of their study. It is their aim to develop also in members those qualities which make for better sponsors and leaders of various girls’ clubs. Following the business meeting, programs are furnished by members of the organization or by guest speakers and musicians, A Weakness For Nurses,” a one-act comedy presented by a few members of the club provided enjoyable entercainmnt for one of the meetings this year. Initiation of new members in the fall, a Christinas party which is usually held at the home of the sponsor, and a May party make up the social calendar of the club. The large membership in Aspasians is an evidence of the enthusiasm and interest of its members. Miss Ludden, sponsor of the organization deserves much of the credit for its accomplishments. She is always willing to give generously of her time and efforts for the betterment of Aspasians, Ramona Major----------------- First Quarter _________ President Eunice Hanthorn Second Quarter President Lucille Mochel —...

Pai;e Thirty-one DON SMITH Editor The Antelope ANTELOPE COMPLETES TWENTY-FIVE YEARS OF COLLEGE SERVICE T I Student Publication Has Grown With College During Past- Years. ROYAL HENUNIH Business Mnn.iger Completing a quarter of a century of service to the college. The Antelope, weekly student publication, has once again endeavored to fulfill its function of presenting an accurate reflection each week of the activity and growth of its college. As the official organ of the students, alumni, and faculty of Kearney the school paper has grown with the college during its twenty-five years of existence. In 1910 the Antelope was changed from an eleven by sixteen sheet to a ten galley edition; in 1920 it was placed under the support of the contingent fee and the necessity for a large advertising volume which crowded out news disappeared; and in 1932, under the editorship of Ruth Burch, it became a member of the Columbia Scholastic Press Association. During the last year, the staff has made every effort to maintain and advance the excellent standards of this publication. To this end, effort has been made to express accurate student viewpoint on problems of both local and national, educational and social importance. Through pursuance of these objectives the staff hopes the paper may become even more of a student publication and aid in the building of a solidarity and unity in student thought and activity on this campus. Two special Antelopes were published during the first two quarters this year, one a homecoming edition, and one a combined alumni and memorial edition of March 1, were sent to Kearney alumni. Ordinarily The Antelope reaches some one hundred seventy-five high schools and subscribers weekly in addition to its college circulation. The staff: managing editor, George Henigan; news editor, Maxine Rosscn; feature editor, Woodrow Wirsig; feature writers, Stanley Johnson, Dale Donaly and Margaret Murray; sports writers, Richard Hartford, Joe Gallagher, Elving Kleist and Richard Wade; columnist, Harold Watkins; circulation, Ernest Lockwood. MAXINE ROSSEN GEORGE HENIGAN News Editor MaiiiifiioK Editor Pflfcje Thirty two - J Bernice Dunlavy Louise Enochs Home Economics Department This year one of the most interesting additions to the home economics department has been the creation of a definite place within the department for boys. Mrs. Bernice Dunlavy declares chat food selection is vital to everyone, even to men in the development of health and homemaking. Therefore, this year twenty A. O, Thomas High boys are receiving instruction in foods, and plans are being made for courses adapted to college men. The main purpose of the home economics department is, of course, to train students in homemaking, which includes foods and nutrition, child care, clothing, arrangement of furniture, and artistic effects. Seventy girls are enrolled in the department, thirty-five of whom are majors or minors. The laboratories and work rooms of both the cooking and sewing divisions are furnished with modern and attractive equipment. Miss Louise Enochs has proved her superiority as an instructor in clothing, home management, and child training. She has received all her training from the University of Nebraska, completing her bachelor of science degree in 1919 and her master of science in 1933. Miss Enochs is well known for her vivacious personality. Her authority on clothing and on beauty in the home is recognized by all and her opinions are sought by many. Mrs. Bernice Dunlavy lias an excellent background for her work in this department. After receiving her bachelor of science degree from Iowa State Teachers College, she served two years as a dietition in Iowa Methodist hospital where she gave instruction in dietetics to nurses. Later she received a fellowship at Ames where she did graduate work in bacteriology and chemistry. Mrs, Dunlavy completed her master of science degree in the University of Nebraska and came to Kearney State Teachers College. This year the department deserves special credit for bringing to Kearney the annual meeting of the Home Economics Association which was held at the Hotel Fort Kearney on March 29 and 30. Home Economics teachers from all over the state attended the con- vention which was the first meeting ever held outside Omaha or Lincoln. Outstanding among the speakers present was Miss Maude Williamson from the Colorado Agricultural College at Fort Collins who spoke on Integration of Education for Home and Family Life and Our Place in It ” Page Thirty-three Home Economics Club Yvonne Faser President Lois Cole _____—.... —________Vice President Mary Richard _ Secretary Melda Ransom .----------------------------------------------- Treasurer To open the activities of the season, the Home Economics Club started with a party and all the girls interested in this work were asked to attend. The officers had carefully prepared for each girl «1 book of Indian design and color in which had been outlined the activities of the year. The project for the year was to give girls training and practice in the proper selection of china, silver and linen; in correct table setting; in choice of suitable clothes; in manners and etiquette for all purposes. These programs have been conducted in many different ways. First the girls took part in a style show in which frocks furnished by Kearney merchants were modeled by girls in the department. After this Miss Enochs talked briefly on dress and style. The group has also created on the campus a wide interest in home economics. Because of the association of the girls in the club they have formed more friendships and learned to work with greater co-operation. Several dinners and parties have added to the social life in the club. At the Christmas pot luck dinner the girls presented a gift to their first quarter president, Catherine Parker Anderson. It seems that Mrs. Anderson had enjoyed her home economics classes so much that she decided to give more time to practicing the theories she learned there. A formal dinner in the Fort Kearney ended the activities of the year. These parties, discussions, and demonstrations with the sponsorship of Miss Louise Enochs and Mrs. Bernice Dunlavy have made Home Economics Club a valuable organization on the campus.

Page Thirty four Walter Klehm Oscar Aleuts Mr. Bicknell Ono Olsen Industrial Education Department If a college man wears overalls, he is not necessarily a janitor. In fact, he may he a student teacher. Not, of course, that anyone would belittle a college man for being a janitor. Indeed, a position on the janitor force is to be coveted and the man who holds one is to be envied. However, to return to the initial statement, one cannot judge a college man by his overalls. He may be a diligent industrial education student. We calf it ''industrial education” now and give it a special part of the building as well as a definite section of the catalog. But in 1906 it was different. It was called manual training” then and was listed with the department of geography and agriculture, and taught in the heating plant. In 1914, manual training was listed as a separate department and in 1922 the name was changed to industrial education.” At this time, the department had been seven years in its present location in the main building. Mr. H. J. Mercer was the first instructor in the department. Succeeding him, as the department grew and changes were made necessary, have been the following men: Mr. Charles H. Weller, 1914; Mr. L. E. Burton, 1918; Mr. Otto C Olsen, 1919; Mr. Verne C. Frycklund, 1922; Mr. Walter Klehm, 192S; Mr. William C. Bicknell, 1934. Ac present in the department are Mr. Klehm, head of the department, now on leave of absence to continue his education; Mr. Bicknell, who, in Mr. Klehm’s absence, serves as head of the department; and Mr. Olsen, who has been in the department almost continuously since 1919. The most striking tiling to be noticed about the personnel of this department is its pronounced geniality and its genuine interest in the students. This comment comes from one who is not a student in the department. Men who work in the department say that that is plainly equalled by the excellent teaching ability of their instructors. The department is equipped to give instruction in tool processes as taught in the schools in the state. Indeed, it offers as much work in this field as any similar depart- ment in the state, if not more. The Selvidge plan of teaching trade and industrial work is used exclusively. Individual instruction sheets used in all courses are valuable to the students in their study and will be valuable later in their teaching. Mr, Alexis, who was formerly a teacher in the Grand Island High school, taught in the department the first two quarters during the absence of Mr. Olsen. Page Thirty-live Alice M, Robinson Johanna F. Ogden w mr w 0”� J Latin Department The classical tradition is transmitted to future teachers with dignity and graciousness by Miss Alice M. Robinson, head of the Latin department. Miss Robinson, who is an alumna of this college, received her M. A. degree from the University of California at Berkeley. She has also done graduate work at the Teachers College of Columbia University, and was a member at one time of the faculty of State Teachers College at Peru. She was dean of women during her period of service at that college. Miss Robinson is well known for her deep knowledge of her subject, as well as for her alert culture and lively interest in the cause of education. In recognition of this, she was elected state president of the Nebraska Women’s Educational Club and is serving a second term in that office. Having received a fellowship in the classical department of the University of Nebraska, Miss Robinson is spending this year in Lincoln, working for her doctorate. Ac the time of Miss Robinson’s election to this fellowship, three organizations on the Kearney campus were enjoying her sponsorship—the Y. W. C. A., in which her experience as a dean enabled her to give sympathetic guidance to college women, the Sodalitas Latina, whose activities she had guided since becoming a member of the Kearney faculty, and Xi Phi. Ably serving as head of the Latin department during Miss Robinson’s absence is Dr. Johanna Frances Ogden, who has an enviable record in classical scholarship. Dr. Ogden is a graduate of rive University of Nebraska, where she was elected to Phi Beta Kappa in recognition of her high scholastic standing. She received her A, M. degree from Smith College, and was granted the degree of Doctor of Philosophy by the University of Michigan. She has held fellowships at the University of Chicago and at the University of Michigan. Her research was done in paleography, the object of her study being an eleventh century Latin manuscript of the Bible. Dr, Ogden is an active member of several professional and social societies. These include Phi Mu sorority, the American Association of University Women, the Daughters of the American Revolution, and the National Education Association. Dr. Ogden believes that the classical studies have a large part in the discipline of humanism, which prepares for life by acquaintance with the world's greatest men of thought and action. In the words of Cicero, These studies sustain the young, are the delight of the aged, the ornament of prosperity, the comfort and refuge of adversity, our amusement at home; they pass the night with us, go into the country with us and attend us on our journeys abroad.” Payc Thirty-six Sodalitas Latina Doris Wright ..................................... President Ralph Fortna Vice President M eld a Ransom —Secret dry Pearl Madsen Treasurer The members of Sodalitas Latina, the Latin Club, takes considerable pride in the fact that their organization is the oldest one on the campus of Kearney State Teachers College. It was organized in 1909, not long after the founding of the college, and has remained a part of the college activities continuously since that time. Last year, the club celebrated its twenty-fifth anniversary. Scrap books and pictures, kept by the society's historians during the quarter century, furnished interesting records to the members of the club, as did the secretary’s book, which contains accounts of meetings, activities, and membership lists from the beginning of the organization. The Latin Club is open to all students of Latin in the college. Thus the programs and activities are designed to afford expression and enjoyment to beginning students as well as to those more advanced. The club brings them a better understanding of the customs and manners of the Roman people. As an organization in a teacher training college, its aim is to provide prospective teachers of Latin with the incentive and means of making their instruction vital. The society further serves as a social means of increasing the cultural and professional unity of Latin teachers Under the direction of Dr. Johanna Ogden, the special concern of the Latin Club this year has been a study in preparation for the participation by this college in the world-wide celebration of the bi millennia I of the birth of Horace. To this end, the students are be- coming more familiar with the life and works of this ancient poet. it it it it D. Wright Miss Ogden R. Fortna E. Han thorn M. Mathews P. Madsen M. Ransom E.

Pate’s eight o’clocks always feel that his most characteristic movement is that of reaching into his pocket for his watch. If they’ve been late, making excuses to Mr. Pate isn’t conducive to peace of mind, hut students have discovered that Mr. Pate is human, for a really sound excuse is never followed by a delinquent slip. Mr. Pate, who is head of the mathematics department, received his A. B. degree from the University of Oregon in 1913, and then went east” to the University of Nebraska where he secured his Master of Arts degree the following year. He has held his present position for nineteen years. There are two Miss Emma Hanrhorns. In the class room we find a rightfully exacting Miss Han thorn who endeavors to sec that every student gets that for which he came into her class—mathematics. The other Miss Hanthorn we meet in corridors or in her classroom at such times as there are no classes. This is a smiling, chatting Miss Hanthorn who has no difficulty remembering that she once worked for an A. B. at the University of Nebraska herself. We suspect her own mathematical difficulties were negligible but we find her tolerant toward ours. Her Master of Arts degree is from the University of Southern California and she lias been teaching mathematics in our college for twenty-one years. Concerning the aims of the mathematics department, Mr. Pate says, Our subject matter is selected and presented on the basis of its fitness m preparation for teaching— ours is a teachers college. Special attention is given to individual difficulties. Subject matter equal to that found anywhere is presented in our courses from arithmetic to calculus. Special classes for instruction in the teaching of mathematics in the grades, in junior high school, and in senior high school are conducted; also, in the history of mathematics. Our Mathematics 210 is one of the newer courses offered only recently in many colleges—a college course in plane geometry essential for all teachers of high school mathematics,” Page Thirty-eight Academy of Science and Mathematics Officers.

Interested students from the biology, physical science, and mathematics departments are eligible for membership. Consequently, the Academy is one of the largest of the campus organizations. The Academy has this year furthered its aim of creating and promoting intelligent interest in science and mathematics through meetings sponsored by each of the three departments of which the membership is composed. The biology department sponsored what might have been called an at home evening and displayed slides, equipment, and specimens with which the layman is not ordinarily familiar. The physical science department turned to the mysteries of the X-ray and the fascination of the static machine. The mathematics department after discoursing on pre- historic mathematics and the Platonic bodies brought the members to earth with a real old fashioned cipher-down in which history did not repeat itself.

Hill Modern Language Department Since the establishment of this college Miss Alma Hosic has headed the modern language department� which includes instruction in French� Spanish, and German. During these years of service. Miss Hosic has become well known for her conscientious leadership and her untiring devotion to the cause of education. She was graduated from the University of Nebraska with Phi Beta Kappa honors in 1896, and received her M. A. degree from the same institution in 1904. She spent the following year there also, in work toward a doctorate. Besides travel and study abroad. Miss Hosic has done further work for a doctor’s degree in summer sessions at the University of Chicago and at the University of Colorado. Miss Hosic is a member of the American Association of University Women and of the Modern Language Association of America. As publicity chairman of the Nebraska Women’s Educational Club, she has edited the bulletins for the year. Miss Hosic is also sponsor of Beta Pi Theta, national French honorary fraternity, and of Le Cercle Francais. She sponsors, in addition. Camp Fire, and is one of the faculty advisers of the class of 1935. The chief objectives of the modern language department, according to Miss Hosic, are to afford opportunity for mental growth in the capacity for adaptability, for world citizen- ship, and for linguistic knowledge and power. Language is an indispensable intellectual and social tool and has a high correlation with all other subjects. Miss Ethel W. Hill, whose vivacity and enthusiasm cause her to interpret felicitously the culture of Spain and Hispanic America, was graduated from Hastings college with an A. B. degree. She did graduate work at the University of Colorado, and received her M. A. degree, as well as a diploma as teacher of Spanish, from Columbia University. Her mastery of the language has been furthered by travel and study abroad. She holds a certi- ficate from the Centro de Estudios Historicos in Madrid. Acquaintance with Latin America was gained by an Around South America tour, during a part of which Miss Hill served as an interpreter. A member of the Nebraska Women’s Educational Club, and of American Association of Teachers of Spanish, Miss Hill is also both a past local president and a past state president of the American Association of University Women. At present, she is Regent of the Fort Kearney chapter. Daughters of the American Revolution. Two college organizations claim her services as sponsor; La Socicdad Espanola, which she organized, and the Juanita sorority. In addition to these activities, Miss Hill finds time for her two hobbies, short story writing and violin playing, having been formerly a member of the college symphony orchestra. Spanish,” said Miss Hill, quoting a recent writer in Hispania, is the key that unlocks the door of a vast treasure house of transcendently important and interesting culture.” Miss Hill especially values the study of languages as adding beauty, color, and rhythm to life. Page Forty Beta Pi Theta Pi Iota chapter of Beta Pi Theta, national honorary fraternity for students of the French language and literature, was installed in November, 1931, at Kearney by Miss E. Louise Stone, a member of the National Council. There were seventeen charter members, with Miss Margaret Ann Joyce, of Alma, as first president, and Miss Alma Hosic, head of the modern language department of the college, as sponsor. The purpose of such an organization on the campus is to further interest in all the aspects of French culture: the language, the literature, drama, arc, music, the people, and the country itself. Membership is open only to students of sophomore rank who have maintained a high general scholastic average and who display marked interest and proficiency in the French language. This chapter, because of its being situated in a teachers college, is especially interested in broadening the knowledge and culture of prospective teachers of French, and in increasing their ability to use the language easily and fluently. The programs are designed with this end in view, and include musical numbers, playlets, group singing, poetry, and discussions in French of various matters of current interest. As a part of the regular activities of the chapter, members of the fraternity presented this year in convocation Anatole France’s well known play, La Comedie de Cclui qui epousa une Femme Muctte.” Plays chosen from the French stage for presentation in former years have been these: Molicre’s Le Malade imaginaire,” Daudec’s L’Oeillet blanc,” and Labiche and Martin’s popular comedy, La Poudrc aux yeux.” Harold York President Pauline Hinote .

Through one-act plays, readings, reports, songs, and music, the charm of Castilian Spanish lent a warmth and congeniality to the atmosphere so prevalent in Spanish countries. Topping skits from Zaragueta, plays such as La LLegada al Hotel,” El Criado Astuto,” and Una Manana de Sol” by the Quintero brothers, which made a delightful reading, was a Mexican Christmas celebration La Pinata,” in which a group of senoritas sing Spanish songs and dance around a doll that has been stuffed with candy. Later they lead in a senor, who, blindfolded, finally succeeds in breaking the doll and the candy scatters all over the floor and the senoritas and senores scramble to their knees to pick it up. La Sociedad Espanola was organized in the fall of 1923 under the direction of Miss Ethel Hill who is still sponsor. The aim of the organization is threefold: to give the students a broader knowledge of Spanish speaking people through a study of their history and customs and mode of life; to afford a means of making practical that which is learned in the classroom; and to enrich the lives of its members by their association with one another. The club meets on the third Monday of every month. The large attendance, the interest which the members display by participating in many programs, and the truly Spanish atmos- phere prevalent at these meetings speak for the popularity of the club.

Hull Lionel Johnson Paul Pence O. Harlan Shennum V «r nr nr Music Department If one spends any of his time in the western part of the building, he is constantly entertained by the musical efforts of the students of Miss Bundy, Mr. Pence, Mr, Shen- num, Mr. Johnson and Mrs, Hull. These instructors, in fact, are more interesting, if possible, than the harmonic creations of the department. At the head. Miss Bundy, with the advantage of more than one woman’s share of comeliness, directs the procedure of the whole department. However, in spite of the apparently arduous task that the position implies, Miss Bundy also finds time to create for convocation audiences—and, frequently, for anyone who happens to be listening—some of the most fascinating and pleasing of organ music. Miss Bundy has her B. B. and M. M. degrees from DePauw University and has been a pupil of Von Denman Thompson and Wm. Reddick. Now, in short” (little over five feet and five inches) and to get to brass bands,” Mr. Shennum takes care of the college spirit from the music department’s point of view. It is easier, however, to cal! him Harlan” than Mr. Shennum because, not long since, Harlan was just another Kearney college student. Mr. Shennum has a B. S, degree in Education from Kearney. Mr. Lionel Johnson, who has been in Kearney one year, had his training in Columbia University where he took his Bachelor of Science degree and later did graduate w'ork. Mother to everyone in the department, however, is Mrs. Hull, who. it is suspected, creates musicians as much with her sincerity and her smile as with her very excellent instruc- tion. Mrs. Hull is a pupil of William Sherwood. Mr. Pence, who is silently acclaimed to be the best dressed man in college, directs Mens’ Ensemble, Saint Cecilians and Double Mixed Quartet. He has his A. B, and B. F. A. from the University of Nebraska and has been a student of Edith Lucille Robins and Earnest Harrison, in Lincoln, Nebraska, also, Oscar Seagle and Pauline Gold in New York. The world would indeed be a dreary place without music. With this in mind the department has not only offered opportunities of study for students of special talent but it has enriched the entire life of the college by the presentation of recitals and special programs. Outstanding among these were Desert Song” and two vesper services, one at Christmas and one at Easter time. Page Forty'fwr Desert Song To one who has never experienced the thrill of desert sands, native dancers, wild and barbaric Ritfs, the foreign legion, and the other elements of life in Morocco, what is said here will have little value. There are those who, although having never visited that country, can, nevertheless, fully appreciate the life there. They came in contact with it during the second quarter of 1934-35. Burly lighters from the hills, daring soldiers of the French government and beautiful wives of these same soldiers, made the Desert Song the outstanding musical of Kearney- State Teachers College. Opera! Everyone might enjoy its thrill and feel important because he was helping produce it. However, it wasn’t all thrill. There were endless hours of rehearsal during which bawlings out” were frequent and cutting. In every corner and on every convenient box or radiator was perched a tired actor. Woe be unto the person who attempted to disturb anyone in such a position. Oh, it was done, and done safely by some. For instance, if the resting actor was an attractive young woman and the disturbing person a handsome young man, usually no hatred ensued. This, however, was not the rule. But then, chat is the theatre. Both hate and love grow strong or weak for no reason at all. Perhaps the most extraordinary thing in the entire performance was the peculiar faculty which Mr, Pence seemed to have for putting himself into a highly emotional scene and then suddenly dropping out of character to give instruction to some of his Saints” or his Ensemble. Then came production night. Nerves, frayed from twelve o’clock rehearsals, had but twenty-four hours in which to rest and were hardly restored. Everyone was keyed to a high pitch and no one was exactly sure of what he was to do. Mr. Pence had promised ar the last rehearsal not to give information, but someone bad to and Mrs. Weaver certainly couldn't answer all the questions. However, the overture began, the lights were turned on and the auditorium darkened, then the curtain. The show was started. So, also was the football game back stage. Oil stage, actors were determined to see the show through the open doors, in spite of possible exits through those same doors by persons on the stage. But with all, the production went smoothly. Solos, duets, trios, chorus numbers, dances, comedy, conversation, were all given artistically. The last curtain fell. A few days after- ward, it was learned that the opera had not only pleased the audience but that it had also been a financial success. S_ U I I ■ fi i I Fred R. Fulmer Howard H. Hill Mary E- Whitney 35 35 «■(T i' 1' f Physical Education Department The department which is talked about the least and yet does more than any other department for the physical welfare of the students is the Physical Education department. Mr, Fred Fulmer, who is known as “Fred” to all the boys, is the head of the department, Mr. Fulmer received a diploma from the Y, M. C. A. School of Physical Education, in 1920, and came to this institution the following year. He received his B. S. degree from the Nebraska State Teachers College in 1930 and his M. S. degree from Washington State College in 1931. Mr. Fulmer is assisted by Mr. Howard H. Hill, who received his A. B. degree from the Hastings College in 1928 and who did graduate study at the University of Nebraska during the summers of 1930 and 1931, and Miss Mary E. Whitney, who received her B, S. degree in Education from the University of Michigan in 1931 and her A. M. degree from New York University in 1932. This department regards good health as a fundamental factor in the success of a teacher and, therefore, maintains an excellent gymnasium with apparatus for the physical development and training of its students. A commodious swimming pool is located on the lower floor. Privileges in this gymnasium are open to all students. In order to safeguard the health of the students physical examinations are required of all using the gymnasium and swimming pool. Miss Whitney, the women's physical education instructor, is doing some very fine work with the girls in her various classes; however, I, the writer, being of the masculine persuasion cannot give a very definite testimony of what is being done, but can judge only from the demonstrations which the girls give in convocations. Mr. Hill is the football coach and Mr. Fulmer is the basketball coach; both participate in coaching the track team. Mr. Fulmer trained a good basketball squad this winter, consisting mostly of freshmen, which tied for second wfith Wayne and Peru in the N. I. A. A. Conference. In addition to athletics a varied program is offered to the boys in gym work and swimming. The boys beginning swimming class has made rapid progress this spring. Cal” Suther- land has at last obtained the art of surface diving, to the bottom of the pool, hut has not yet learned that he should not stay there. It is a good thing for Cal” that the rest of the boys also learned to surface dive, which enables them to rescue him from his resting place under the water. The boys’, as well as the girls’, physical education class puts on a convocation program at least once a year. This program show's the accomplishments made in these courses. It is interesting and thrilling to see Fred” and his acrobats perform on the horizontal and parallel bars, and Bill” Holtrop and Chet” Brown arc hard to beat u'licn it comes to floor tumbling.

H. s� cinbach C. A, Foster o SC SC Physical Science Department Growing pains! The physical science department—the department of static electricity and test tubes—has them and each year they are becoming more painful. The enrollment is half again as large as it was four years ago, when Dr. W. H. Steinbach, who received his B. S. degree from Hastings College and his M. A, and Ph. D. degrees from the Uni- versity of Nebraska, became the head of the department. Dr. Steinbach teaches the chemistry classes, while Mr. C, A. Foster whose B. A. is from William Jewell college and his M. A. is from the Colorado State Teachers College, teaches the physics classes. At present, an even hundred hours are offered in the department, about half as much physics as chemistry. While there are beginning classes each year, some of the more advanced chemistry classes are offered biannually. This year, two new physics classes, advanced me- chanics and heat and modern physics, have been added to those caught in the department. Like the advanced chemistry classes, they alternate from year to year, advanced mechanics and heat to be given in 1935. During the last year there has been much student employment in the department, some of it made possible by PER A funds. The increased enrollment this year made it necessary to employ more students than ever before. Students are employed to assist in the laboratories, to aid in preparing apparatus and chemicals for experiments, to check and grade written work and to construct new laboratory equipment. Most of this new equipment is for use in the advanced physics classes. This year, more than fifty students are majoring in physical science. Many of these students arc members of Omega Alpha Tau, honorary fraternity which the department sponsors. Strangely enough, there are fewer students minoring in the department than majoring. This is explained by the fact enrollment for a major in chemistry with a minor in physics, or vice versa, is discouraged. The department feels that it is better for a student contemplating teaching to have his minors from other departments, thus being trained to teach more subjects. Omega Alpha Tau No, the serious looking chap carrying the egg isn’t advertising the by-products of the hen. Instead, he is a pledge, seeking admission into the newest of all of the college’s honor- ary fraternities, the Omega Alpha Tan. This fraternity was started last year when the local chapter of the Lamba Delia Lamba, honorary physical science fraternity, discontinued its membership in the national fraternity. It was thought that the high cost of membership prevented many eligible students from joining the fraternity. By making it a local organiza- tion, costs were lessened considerable. The two instructors in the physical science department, Dr. Warren H. Steinbach and Prof. C, A. Foster, sponsor the organization. Howard Spieth is president of the fraternity, with Glen Garrabrant as vice president. The office of treasurer is held by Delmar Kim- berling, while Roland Brown, apparently the one who keeps all the atoms and molecules in order, is the sergeant-at-arms. The club is unique among college organizations in that it actually has some money in its treasury. A student,, to join the fraternity, must have a major or a minor in the physical science department and meet certain scholastic requirements. This year there are twenty-four members, four women and twenty men. The fraternity meets once a month, with one social function each quarter. At the regular meetings, ir is customary to have scientific demonstra- tions and discussions by speakers trained in that particular scientific field, or by members of the club. Occasionally, in accordance with the purpose of the club, the organization sponsors scientific entertainments, for example, the liquid air demonstration last year. The impressive initiation ceremony, known as the Ordeal of the Senses, is held once a year. Its avowed purpose is to remove from the applicant his superstitions and misconcep- tions and to test his senses. Lest timid souls be afraid to join, it is well to suggest that even in the informal initiation the sense of feeling is not imposed upon too much. As a part of this informal initiation, it is traditional for the pledges to carry eggs to be signed, at the risk of breakage, by the active members of the fraternity. H. Spieth, C. Anderson, C.

Powell 55 55 55 55 Rural Education Department The Little Red School House” of yesterday typified rather well the red faced infant chat was rural education at the time. Today, In its lusty adolescence, rural education is, in most cases, given more adequate housing. Two, three and four teacher schools are numerous throughout the middle west but they remain essentially rural schools having need of teachers trained to meet successfully the problems peculiar to rural schools. It is the function of our rural education department to supply teachers of this type. Little Eddie of a city school isn’t likely to stick his tongue to the pump handle during some frost bitten recess, nor is Susie going to need to be helped on her horse; the mother of Artie, Donnie, and Shirley won’t send their three dinners in one lunch pail and there will be no need for twenty-six classes to be held in one room (possibly two) during one day. All these little difficulties are only minor details in the daily routine of the rural school. If the teacher has done her practice work in an urban school, how can she know the proper procedure in the cases of Eddie, Susie, Artie, Donnie, and Shirley? The answer is, of course, that she can't. Mr, R. W. Powell, who is head of both the rural education department and the House of Powell, has overcome this difficulty in a manner that makes our rural education department the only one of its kind in the middle west. Seven actual district” schools maintain affiliations with the department and students in the department do their cadet teaching in these schools under the supervision of Mr. Powell and the regular teacher. Mr, Powell received his Bachelor of Science degree from the State Teachers College of Kirksville, Missouri, and his master of arts degree from the University of Chicago. Mrs. Gail Powell, who is the wife and capable assistant of Mr. Powell, received her bachelor of arts degree from Nebraska State Teachers College and has taken graduate work from the University of Chicago and the University of California at Berkeley. Both Mr. and Mrs. Powell have been faculty members since 1920 with occasional absences for graduate study. They are in frequent demand as speakers at county institutes for teachers and Mrs. Powell is at the present time secretary of the Nebraska Congress of Parents and Teachers. Page Sixty r Lyle E. Mantor Mr. Barton Jennie M. Conrad The Social Science Department The social science department was organized at the time of the founding of the institution in 1905, with professor C. N. Anderson as head of the department. It has always had a large enrollment, with an average of approximately thirty students in each class. At the present time there are eighteen courses offered; these make it possible to earn seventy-five hours in the social sciences. Professor Anderson served as head of the department for twenty-two years, retiring in 1927 on account of ill health. His successor was Doctor L. E. Mantor, present head of the department, who obtained his B. A. degree from the Iowa State Teachers College in 1922, his M. A. degree from the University of Iowa in 1925, and his Pit. D. degree from the same institution in 1934. The department was in charge of one person until 1916, when a half time assistant was employed. In January 1920, Miss Jennie Conrad was added to the department as a full time member. Miss Conrad obtained her A. B. degree from Nebraska State Teachers College in 1920, and her A. M. degree from Columbia University in 1922. In June, 1934, the earth science and social science departments were consolidated for administration purposes. This change added Doctor Thomas F. Barton to the department. Doctor Barton came to the institution in March, 1934. He obtained his B. Ed. degree from the Illinois Normal University in 1930, his Ph. M. degree from the University of Wisconsin in 1931. and his Ph. D. degree from the University of Nebraska in January, 1935. Doctor Barton is the geography instructor. He has had an extensive education and scientific career. He was authorized United States Junior Weather Observer in 1929; held a fellowship in the University of Wisconsin from 1930 to 1932; was assistant with Illinois State Normal University’s Eastern United States Geography Tours” during the summers of 1929, ’30, and 31; graduate assistant in geography at the University of Nebraska from 1932 to 1934; assistant professor of geography and chairman of the department in West Tennessee State Teachers College, Memphis. Tennessee, during the summer sessions of 1932 and 33. He has received several academic honors and is a member of the following learned societies: Pi Kappa Delta, Kappa Delta Pi, Phi Gamma Mu, Gamma Theta Upsilon, Phi Delta Kappa, and Sigma Xi (associate). Past Sixty-two History Club The History Club, the only extra-curricular activity offered by the Social Science depart- ment was organized in 1911 by Professor C. N. Anderson, which gives it the distinction of being one of the oldest organizations on the campus. The club was organized for the purpose of furthering study in the history of Nebraska but has since been widened to include all divisions of social science. Any one caking a course in social science is eligible for membership to the club. This year the membership is approximately sixty. This large membership is the result of increased enrollment of students who are interested in the field of social science. The club has only two officers and two sponsors, which are in reality, all that is necessary for an organization of its nature. The organization has no other contact than the immediate campus and thus the two officers are sufficient. Glen Borden, a senior, is the president. The members know that Glen will always be present, judging from his past record, and therefore does not need an assistant. Miss Genevieve Carlson, another senior, serves in double capacity. She is secretary and treasurer. The members have known Gen since her kindergarten days and she has left a good record of writing notes: hence the secretary- ship; she was also known as a gold digger” in high school; hence the treasurership. With these two trustworthy and experienced officers and Dr. Mantor and Miss Conrad as the sponsors, the club is not lacking for proficient leadership. The meetings, which are held the third Saturday of each month, have included lectures by Dr. Mantor and group discussions. Various members of the club have given talks on world problems, and the aims and purposes of teaching history in foreign countries. At the January meeting, which was held at Eva J. Case Hall, the group was entertained by a modern, old fashioned picture show—modern in respect of the times and costumes hut old fashioned in the respect that it was not a raikie.” It was a film of the inauguration of President Franklin D. Roosevelt. After the show the members enjoyed a very entertaining evening by playing cootie.” What is it? How do you play it? Ask a History Club member and he can inform you concerning all the tricks of a cootie.” To end the year with a perfect day and a good time the club always sponsors as its last meeting a picnic at old Fort Kearney. All the members look forward with pleasure to this day; nevertheless they have a feeling of regret, since it is the last of their association together. Tap How-----M. Haftid, H, Frahm, T. Wilson, M.

It provides opportunities for students and members of the college faculty to study the educational process as it occurs in innumerable public school situations In the laboratory school educational theories are tested and verified, and educational practices are evaluated and refined. The school also affords advanced students facilities for improving their teaching technique through actual classroom practice under the guidance of expert teachers.” These are the conclusions of Dr. Hans C. Olsen, director of the laboratory school and head of the placement bureau. Under the direction of Dr. Olsen the student teachers meet once each month to discuss teaching problems. These meetings have been particularly enjoyable since Dr. Olsen instituted the custom of serving tea. These social hours have given an opportunity for the teachers to become better acquainted and in that way have added to the success of the more serious part of the conference. Mr. A. E. Burke, principal, and Dad to the high school boys, has chat much desired faculty of doing many things—and of doing them all well. A native of the Hoosier” state, he has his A. B. and A. ML from Indiana; for eight years he has been principal of the Thomas school, Mrs. Agnes Knutzen Anderson is the teacher—Mother of the very, very young —the kindergarteners. After the infants have progressed to the grades, they always show Mrs. Anderson their report cards, and she is just as thrilled by their AV as they are! Mrs. Anderson has her A. B. from State Teachers College, Kearney. Mr. Glen Durflinger who has his A. B. and A. M. from the Colorado State Teachers College is the mathematics teacher. He manages the A. O. Thomas athletics and in the field of minor sports he organizes checker tournaments for the younger boys. Miss Lctitia Ellicott is supervisor at Whittier school, in grade three. She is a graduate of Colorado State Teachers College at Greeley, Miss Belle Glcasman supervises modern language in the Thomas school; she, too, was graduated from Colorado State Teachers College. Miss Vcrnctte Moore supervises grade six at Emerson school; she took her training at Northwestern and at Iowa University. Miss Mabel Morris, an Iowan, is supervisor of English and is girls’ adviser in the laboratory school. She has her B. A. and A. M, degrees from the University of Iowa. Pauline E, Phillips, the full time music supervisor of A, O. Thomas has a diploma in supervision (Crane Musk Institute) and B. S. (Syracuse University), she was a student at Cornell University under Dr. Hollis Dann; a student at the University of California and Columbia University. Miss Malvina Scott is the supervisor of the first and second grades in Thomas school. Her little pupils love her, and they always bring her pieces of birthday cake! She has her B, S. degree from Fremont College, and her A. B. from Colorado State Teachers College. The third and fourth grades of Thomas school have as their teacher, Miss Blanche Skinner; she, too, has her A. B. and A. M. from Colorado. Unlike most eighth-graders, those of Thomas school enter high school with a certain reluctance. The person responsible for this attitude is Miss Elda Stubbs, their supervisor, another “Coloradoan” with her A. B. and A. M. from Greeley. The supervisor of the fifth and sixth grades is Miss Anna Van Brussel, from Mount Pleasant, Iowa. College students know her, too, since her classes meet in the main building;—if you still can't place her, look for a lady in a lavender dress, and it will probably be Miss ’'Van.” Florin C. Williams who has his A. B. and A. M. from Indiana University returned to Indiana in the middle of the second quarter to work on his doctor’s degree at the same university. So we have the personnel of A. Q. Thomas school from kindergarten through high school; if you don't know them already you will within the next year or two,—and you’ll like them, too! sr v v sr Top Row-—-Agnes Anderson Gl«n E urf linger, Lctitia Eilicoti, LI die Gleasmon, Vcrnctte Moore, Mabel Morris.

Thomas Student Council The Student Council Association of the A. O. Thomas High school was organized May 12, 1932, in order to give pupils experience in solving problems of government through co- operative effort, and to develop within the school chose moral and social attributes which make for better citizenship. Ail pupils in the high school are automatically members of the Student Council Association and pledge themselves to its support. The president of the association is elected by the pupils from the junior or the senior class for a term of one year. The president is assisted by a council made up of two repre- sentatives from each home room, the principal of the high school, and a faculty sponsor appointed by the principal. The president appoints a secretary and a treasurer from the membership of the council. All pupil-members of the council, other than the president, serve for eighteen weeks. The work of the council is carried on in a formal and dignified way, as is shown by the manner in which the initiation service is conducted. In this service the candle-lighting ceremony is used and the oath of allegiance is administered by the principal to the council members. In all die deliberations of the council regular parliamentary procedures are observed. The activities of the council during not quite two years of existence have been consider- able. The members of the council are responsible for collection of attendance slips at the beginning of each class period, and for the orderly exit from convocation. The organization has established a fund for high school lectures and entertainments. Shortly before the death of Dr. A, O. Thomas, the high school received from the educator as a result of correspondence carried on by the Council an enlarged photograph which now hangs in a corridor of the Thomas building. In one of his letters to the Council, Dr. Thomas said of the school, It is a great honor to have such a school bear one’s name. 1 appreciate the honor and the spirit of the pupils and I trust chat the A. O. Thomas High School may always conduct itself with such high honor and efficiency that it will be an out- standing school among the many fine schools of Nebraska.’11 It is the desired goal of the Thomas Council to make its school the outstanding school” of which Dr. Thomas wrote. Page Sixty-eight n, Senior Class Officers. Max Houtchens President Evelyn Jacobson Vice President Janet Ingram Secretary-treasurer The immediate adoption of tine proposed pension for college students recommended by a junior politician would find favor with all seniors who now find themselves faced with the necessity of going to work. At least, most of us arc searching for some- thing at which to work; or is it someone whom we can work? Anyway, By our works ye shall know us.” May our future reputation be as enviable as that derived from our college activities! (We take this means of thanking all lower classmen for such applause as they care to give the preced- ing statement.) During the freshman year we elected a program committee which planned programs for the bi-monthly class meetings, and the class planned a party for each quarter. An outdoor party given in the spring of rhe year was especially successful. As sophomores, the most important social functions were a treasure hunt and a sophomore picnic. For the treasure hunt three routes were mapped out, each leading to the athletic held where refreshments were served and games played around a large bonfire. There were parries in the junior year coo, but the junior sneak day and the junior- senior banquet take precedence over other activities for that year. A half day was given to us in which to sneak” from our regular school duties Leaving Kearney shortly after noon, about twenty-five juniors started to Hastings via automobile. After visiting the State Hospital we spent some time in the city doing most of our shopping at Wool worthy (the choice of shop no doubt necessitated to some extent, at least, by the dictates of our pocket- books) . We then went out to the college and took dinner with the Hastings college students. A theater party at Grand Island that evening completed the junior sneak day. The banquet which we gave for the seniors centered around the theme of the life cycle, which was carried out very effectively in rhe toasts, programs, and the music. As seniors, the efforts of the class have been devoted largely to the publishing of the Blue and Gold. We have also sponsored a convocation program, as has been our custom each year. Plans for the third quarter include sneak day, a dinner party, and the regular commencement activities. Miss Hosic and Mr, Klelxm sponsored the class through the freshman, sophomore, and junior years, Mr. Klehm’s leave of absence this year made it necessary to choose one new sponsor, for which position Mr. Apel was selected.

Page Seventy-one Ee i Junior Class Only the fact that the present junior class has unusual versatility and capability mitigates the mis- givings of the seniors at the prospect of leaving the affairs of student life in the hands of the younger generation. Nothing is more gratifying to a senior than the knowledge that in every sort of collegiate activity there are well trained juniors awaiting only the opportunity of proving their mettle. Even the members of the other classes, who must be accounted somewhat biased, are obliged to agree that the juniors have had more show' of activity, more class meetings, and more convocation announce- ments than any two other classes not inclusive of the sophomores. This last named group, often mentioned in convocation by its indefatigable and perennial president, is admittedly a not too distant runner-up in the race of action and publicity. Whether this tireless “headline hunting9' of the juniors can be attributed to a sincere wish to keep the school informed of their increasing importance, whether it is the inevitable consequence of their laudable stir in preparing to do honor to the departing seniors, or whether, once more, it (the pronoun refers, in case you have forgotten, to headline hunting’') is all a result of the often demonstrated liking of certain prominent juniors for political and otherwise public activity. Only a junior can ever know. ■ Whatever the motive, the plain fact remains that the junior assemblies have been a valuable training ground for the high three (forensically) of that class: namely, Messrs. Henigan, Smith and Spiech. In speaking of the capability of this remarkable class and in speaking of the three young Demosthenes who do all the talking for it, it is difficult to determine which is cause and which effect. The consideration of such abstractions, however, is not within the scope of this paper, and I need only say that an alert electorate is invariably a spur to even the best of statesmen. It is worth recording chat Mr. Ryan and Miss Hanthorn, to whose sponsorship the juniors are quick to attribute much of their solidarity, have both declared that the attendance at the class meetings is truly remarkable. Further credit is due the presidents who have served during this year—George Henigan, Kenneth Carlson, and Martha Melick—and the other officers, who for this quarter are Carl Franzen, vice president, and Mona Slote, secretary. Although the juniors admit chat they are no cramps, and the seniors are willing to concede this, the principal event on the junior social calendar before the junior-senior banquet was a hobo party. This affair, directed by Miss Josephine Jelen of che Kearney High School faculty, was an enjoyable hilarious one. Prominent juniors, as well as the smaller fry, appeared in the disarray appropriate to the motif of die party—some, the chronicler is obliged reluctantly to add, with straw in their hair. Prizes were awarded, and edibles, presumably, dispensed. On April 26 the juniors entertained the seniors with a dinner dance in the Fort Kearney Hotel. For this occasion the juniors elected a senior girl, Delight Wimberly, whom they wished to honor. Scholarship, leadership and ideals were the qualities considered in making the choice.

It has shown a commendable school spirit, during Freshman Week and throughout the year. Working for the establishment of traditional freshman activities on the campus, a practice which has not hitherto been followed, the Student Council carefully planned a full program for the freshmen during Freshman Recognition Week, November 5' to 9. The freshmen responded with no small amount of enthusiasm, which gave vent to a convocation program that was a credit to their class, every freshman participating either in the program or by wearing his green cap. Upon entering the auditorium and seeing the entire center filled and overflowing with green caps one without a cap felt himself distinctly a part of the minority and rightly so, for the records of the administration office show that out of a total enrollment of 682, the freshman class claims 429 members. Incidentally, while speaking in figures, the freshman class contributes over 50 per cent of the membership in Zip Club, 50 per cent of the membership in sororities and fraternities, and no doubt a similarly large percentage in most of the other organizations on the campus. The freshmen also had a good representation on the football squad this year. Freshman Week was not altogether one-sided, however, in making the freshmen furnish all the entertainment. On Wednesday afternoon they were guests of the Student Council at a reception held in the Y. W. rooms. The freshmen were obliging enough to furnish (in some instances under pressure, per- haps, but none the less good-naturedly) the boxes for the bonfire at the rally which preceded the Wayne game. They also provided entertainment between halves by giving a demonstration six-man football game, and in the freshman vs. sophomore tug-of-war proved their strength by defeating the sophomores with comparatively little struggle. Freshman Week culminated in a dance and reception following the homecoming game, Friday, November 9. Miss Bundy and Dr. Zeigel are the class sponsors so on them rests the responsibility of proficiently guiding these 429 freshies” through their remaining three years of college Pag i Eighty-eight Page i.:hiv Kearney Abraham, George Cushing Anderson.

Marion Nelson Archies” friendly How do you do” from behind the library desk has made book checking a pleasure. It is not un- common for library boys to be friendly but when one is so unusually wide awake” and friendly every morning at seven, those early morning customers, the farmer girls” have reason to re- member him. Max ffoiitchens Duke Merrill” Houtchens of Senior Play fame is also the most representative fellow in the class. When he is not acting a part in a play, studying, taking snap shots, or dancing, he is that busy, reserved assistant who guides the patter- ing of half a hundred typewriters. Just how Ruth has time to become a representative senior with three people asking her questions every minute of the day, is one of life's great mysteries; especially when the question is always the same, When is the Blue and Gold coming out?” .1 UNIOR PERSONALITIES Personalities chosen by ballot in the junior class Page Ninety nine Martha Melick Martha is a good example of die ef- fici eney women must work for to gain an equal reputation with men as good executives. As junior president Martha has kept the class busy —at least judg- ing from the volume of convocation an- nouncements and the number of people who are always busy on the dinner dance. George Henigan The debater, journalist and at least we are told by some, radical, has made himself popular in Kearney by reason of his political views and his pet expres- sions, two of which are, In other words and ’’There are points for each side.” It is surprising the different situations in which they may be used. Ih m Smith As has most aptly been said, Don is an editor, debater, politician and lover.” Perhaps his popularity can be accounted for by the fact that in spite of all these attributes he is a scholar. An Its Olsen Gray-eyed Ardis Olsen, the girl whose giggle you never forget, has one particu- larly dear friend—her violin. Without Ardis the orchestra would be incom- plete; the library would be a dreary place and the string quarter—a trio. SOPHOMORE PERSON ALITI ES Personalities chosen by ballot in the sophomore class Pay� ' One I fund rod Jean Kvns A fellow as versatile as Stanley is rightfully called a representative student. Besides making an excellent Ancipholus, the one who didn’t go visiting, he is a debater, writer, winner of the 1955 Xi Phi award, and a radio enthusiast. It is rumored that he broadcasts a code by whistling. Margaret Murray Editor of The Antler, winner of honorable mention in the 1935 Xi Phi award, student council, Sigma Tau Del- ta, Dean’s Council and Juanita mem- ber,—that is Margaret, and many more reasons why she was chosen most repre- sentative girl in the sophomore class could be given if space permitted. Stanley Johnson jean is the girl who never tacks en- thusiasm and who can accomplish almost anything with her smile. As Y. W. cab- inet member she has definite “ideas on ideals” which have added to her popu- larity. Harold Watkins Harold has made himself popular by two things,—his nose for scandal and his ability to sing. Such a rare combination would make him popular on any campus without considering his other admirable qualities. Glenn i Bloom Among a hundred girls, that '’winning way” is the striking characteristic of our popular freshman girl. Did you ever hear her say, Louise, you are the nicest girl in school,—won’t you go to the li- brary with me?” Sidney tun sun Sid” is a personality to conjure with, at least in the minds of certain members of the freshman class who elected him the most popular fellow in the class. Per- haps it is his quiet smile which seems to connote a certain sense of power—who knows? Douglas Graham Mex” is not only a representative freshman but as a representative of the Graham family he is doing his part to uphold its athletic record. The fresh- man class has no monopoly on his time; —the seniors share a small part of it. Lela Huffstutter Dignity, poise, and charm are the thoughts which naturally come to mind when we think of the most representa- tive freshman girl. These qualities have made Lela a worthy recipient of the title. FRESHMAN PERSONALITIES Personalities chosen by ballot in the freshman class One Hundred Ontf I H. Olson. A. Schufcldt, E. Wilson. M.

Page One Hundred Two Xi Phi The Xi Phi fraternity was founded in order to recognize intellectual ability and to develop as well as recognize the capacity for leadership among college students. Thus definite standards n those two respects are required of candidates for Xi Phi membership. The Kearney chapter, founded in 1923, has honored, during that time more than two hundred senior college students with election to membership. President of the chapter for the year is Halvor Christensen, who is a former president of Omega Alpha Tau, honorary fraternity in the field of physical science. Ruth Bishop, editor of the 1935 Blue and Gold, is vice president of the organization. The secretary, Doris Wright, is likewise an organization president, serving the Latin Club in that capacity; and Pauline Hinote and Annalics Eckhardc, investigating and corresponding secretary re- spectively, are prominent in various campus activities, Mr. C. T. Ryan, head of the English department, and Miss Alice Robinson, head of the Latin department, who has been in Lincoln this year working toward a doctorate, are the sponsors of the chapter. Following its annual custom, the fraternity, including a number of alumni members, celebrated at a banquet on December 15 at the Fort Kearney Hotel the anniversary of rhe founding of the chapter. This year marked the end of the first ten years of the organiza- tion’s existence, Mr. George E. Martin, an honorary member of the fraternity, spoke on the subject, The Public School, a Three-Hundred-Year Experiment in Leadership.” The publication a year ago of the first Xi Phi News Letter, four pages mimeographed, met with enthusiasm among active and alumni members. Accordingly, the second volume of the News was issued in March of this year, with Alvin Anderson as editor. Another Xi Phi activity of each year is the presentation of awards to the high ranking members of each sex in the sophomore class. The 1934 winners, each of whom received ten dollars to apply on registration charges, were Don Smith and Ardis Olsen. Annalies Eckhardt and Carlisle Anderson received honorable mention. The winners for 1935 are Stanley Johnson and Melda Ransom, with Margaret Murray and Richard Person receiving honorable mention.

C. A. More than sixty men are members of the Y. M. C. A. at Kearney State Teachers College. The first activity of the organization this school year was a watermelon feed,” held, for obvious reasons, out-of-doors. Grasping the slices in both hands and burrowing ear deep, the men who attended managed to consume a truly amazing number of watermelons. Having appealed to the appetite, the organization settled down to rhe more serious business of appealing to the mind. The regular meetings, during the weeks chat followed, featured excellent speakers and entertaining programs. In the late fall the group held a picnic at the Boy Scout camp. Again there was demonstrated the appetites of men, this time for weiners, sizzling over a wood fire. Shortly before Christmas vacation, the Y, M. C. A, and the Y. W, C, A. held a Christmas party in the gymnasium, which was decorated for the occasion. Speaking of decorations, Bryce Newman is still regretting that he isn’t a botanist. Not knowing mistle- toe from horseradish, he failed to utilize the romantic possibilities of the plant, although he and his partner passed under it several times. The lion” of the party was Professor Stout, who, as the jovial Santa Claus, distributed the gifts. With something of poetic justice, Ruth Bishop, dignihed editor” of the Blue and Gold,” received a box of animal crackers. Tbc most important event of the year, of course, was Y. M. C. A, and Y. W. C. A. State Conference held this year at Kearney. Representatives from a dozen Nebraska colleges attended. The chief speaker was Dr. Bruce Curry of the Union Theological Seminary in New York. The conference program included tours, lectures, discussion groups, and social events. The local Y. M. C. A. conducted the tours and aided the Y. W. C. A. in entertain- ing the visitors. During April the Y. M. C. A, and die Y, W. C. A. again co-operated, this time for a dutch treat” party. William Holcrop, a Hollander by birth, was the genial master of ceremonies. It was worth going co the party just to hear the clatter of Bill’s wooden shoes. Professor Otto C. Olsen was the sponsor of the Y. M. C. A. this year; Professor C. T. Ryan acted as sponsor during the absence of Mr. Olsen. Carlisle Anderson has been re- elected president of the organization. Robert Kuns, vice president, and Hafold Watkins, secretary-treasurer, are the orher newly elected officers. Cecil Beck, vice president, and Bryce Newman, secretary-treasurer, are rhe retiring officers. Page One Hundred Four Y. W. C. A. The state Y” conference, with Bruce Curry as the main speaker, was brought to the Kearney campus March 8, 9 and 10, through the combined efforts of the Y, M. C. A. and the Y. W. C. A. Of the two-hundred sixteen delegates registered, one-hundred thirty- seven were sent from other colleges in the state. The talks and discussions by Dr. Curry from the Union Theological Seminary in New York brought to the conference delegates a higher intellectual and emotional understanding of religion. Besides cooperating with the Y. M. in the state convention the Y. W. this year col- laborated with its brother organization in other projects. The two groups not only held two delightful parries together, one with a Christmas theme, and the other a Dutch Treat party, but they also joined in three meetings among which the unique program, Majoring in Hcartology,” was developed by the Y. W. The half-hour vesper service was also sponsored by both organizations. The purpose of Y is primarily religious and naturally includes development of person- ality, mind, and body. The organization is the largest on the campus, having a member- ship of two-hundred twenty-six. A democratic and friendly attitude is the desired goal of this group. Some of the activities of tine year have included a general meeting twice a month and smaller group meetings once a month. In these smaller groups the girls have discussed various problems of interest. The annual membership banquet which began the year's activities carried our the Indian motif in table decorations. Perhaps the most impressive events of the Y. W. year were the two candlelight ceremonies for the initiation of new members and the installation of officers. This year Reverend David A, Johnson wrote a new version of the Nativity” which is the traditional Christmas offering of the Y. W, C. A, to the college. It has been pre- sented the last thirteen years. Miss Dorothy Williams is chairman of the advisory hoard which includes seven other sponsors. Miss O'Connell, Miss Conrad, Miss Larson, Miss Enochs, Mrs. Dunlavy, Mrs. Barton and Mrs. Elliott. These advisors meet with the cabinet once a month for a dinner and business meeting. The activities of the year are closed with the annual Y. M. and Y. W, picnic in May. M. Ransom D. Williams D. Huddel L. Forma J, Kurts E. Nelson B. Smith R. Sima Page One H«indu'd Five G. Hirni n M.

Nrhon MS SS « MS Inter-Fraternity-Sorority Council Although still in the embryonic stage the Intcr-Fraternity-Sorority Council has developed a prominence alt its own. This small group of students has formed a council in answer to a need felt among the sororities and fraternities—namely, that of an administrative body similar to Pan-Hellenic boards in universities. The entire project is an experiment attempting to settle some of the difficulties which occasionally arise among these college groups. The standing membership of the council includes the president and one representative of each sorority and fraternity. A sponsor, not affiliated with any one of the social groups, is also a member of the council. Working under the customary handicaps which every newly-formed organization con- fronts, the council has already accomplished some of its objectives. Perhaps the mosr out- standing among the accomplished objectives is the formulation of rules governing the rushing season. These rules will go into effect at the beginning of the first and second quarters next year. The plans have been fully approved by the four social groups. Regula- tions of the financial expenditures of each group is another of the many objectives of the council. The council is operated on the principle of taking up matters which have been suggested at the chapter meetings of each social group and brought to the council through the president and representatives of the group. Organized according to parliamentary Hoyle” the council has for its president, George Henigan; vice president, Wilfred Tressider; secretary, Martha Melick; and treasurer, Wayne Wilson. The membership of the council includes: Genevieve Keenan, Juanita president; Annalies Eckhardt, Juanita representative; Martha Melick, Sigma president; Violettc Bloom, Sigma representative; Wilfred Tressider, Phi Tau president; Wayne Wilson, Phi Tati representative; Marion Nelson, Caledonian president; George Henigan, Caledonian representative; Mr. Barton, sponsor.

Effective blue and silver decorations combined with an excellent orchescra made the Christmas formal dance, which was also held in the Crystal Room at the Fort Kearney Hotel, on December 20, a most delightful prelude to the Christmas holidays, A Christmas program given by the pledges to the inmates of the Tuberculosis Hospital, a mother and daughter tea in February, a pledge dance, occasional picnics and rush parties, and the dinner dance held the lasc evening of the school year completed the annually scheduled events. To remain active, members must carry at least twelve hours of school work with an average of eighty-five per cent. Pledges must conform to the same regulations during the first quarter if they are to be eligible for formal initiation which is held during the second quarter. An executive council within the sorority made up of the executive board and class repre- sentatives, facilitates the achievement of sorority aims. Class representatives to this year’s council wrere: Seniors, Geraldine Riness and Vivian Merryman; juniors, Zoe Malone and Clarabel Lunger; sophomore, Virginia Charlson; and freshman, Louise Petersen. Three aw'ards, for scholarship, fellowship, and leadership, are given at the end of each school year to three upper classmen chosen from among the sorority members by the sponsor, Miss Hill, and the honorary members. a, r Top Row C.

Page One Hundred Seven Sigma Theta Phi Sigma Theta Phi Sorority was organized in November, 1915, by a group of intimate friends. Good fellowship, loyalty and higher aspirations were the ideals set up by this group and are the aims of the society at the present time. Membership is limited to thirty-five active and honorary members. High scholarship h required for initiation, This year attractive pledge pins resembling those of the active members were bought. The Sigma pin is a gold triangle divided into three parts, each section containing the symbols which represent the Greek letters of the sorority. Rush parties opened the year’s activities. The first was a scavenger party with the home of Gladys Dowrak as headquarters; Delight Wimberley was hostess at a fudge party; a formal tea at Eva J. Case Hal! completed the fall events. The first dance of the season was a Columbus Day dance at the Fort Kearney hotel. Three informal dances were held in the Eva J. Case Hall reception room during the year. This reception room was also the scene of all parties and meetings. The most important social affairs included an announcement party, a Valentine party and a Twelfth Night revel. Formal initiation was held after a dinner at The Grantham on December 13. On April 28, the Sigmas honored their mothers at a formal tea in Eva J, Case Hall, Sigma Theta Phi closed the year with the annual formal dinner-dance held in the Crystal Ball room of the Fort Kearney hotel.

Lockwood, Caledonians The Caledonian fraternity, founded on this campus in 1920, has experienced one of the most successful years in the fraternity’s history- Under the capable leadership of Marion Nelson, the Cals put forth well-organized and enthusiastic effort in placing the fraternity in an enviable position in college activities. In the college Hallowe’en festival, the Caledonians won second place in the float com- petition and also second place in the stunt contest, being the only organization to place in both events and the only social organization to win a prize in either. The fraternity won first place in the Blue and Gold Organization Sales contest, and received a free page in the yearbook as their reward. The Cal-Endar, fraternity newspaper, was published for the first rime this year. Its success has warranted a continuation of its publication. The maximum membership quota of 45 was almost reached with the pledging of twenty- six new men. Scholarship, leadership, and personality formed the basis for the selection of the new members. The fraternity, for many years, has maintained a house which, this year, has been the scene of many informal dancing parties and stag affairs. An autumn atmosphere pervaded at the first quarter's Caledonian dance, a George Washington theme that of the second quarter. Both dances were successful in true Caledonian manner. The Caledonians have attained this year an unusual record in representation in all college activities and organizations. Page Qnc Hundred Nine Top Rov —J. McKee, H. Richards. D- Elm. A. Homkin, J.

Phi Tau Gamma When Kearney State Teachers College was doing its part to make the world safe for democracy,” Phi Tau Gamma, social fraternity, was a husky youngster of four years. Now, in 1935, the fraternity has come of age; it began in 1914; this is its twenty-first year of successful activity. Phi Tau Gamma was organized to promote brotherhood, leadership, and companionship. It insists upon good conduct and high scholarship among its members. Its activities are numerous. At the regular meetings, frequently the program includes, together with other entertainment, speakers on various subjects. World problems, as well as those of etiquette and other problems closely linked with college life, are discussed. Sponsoring a formal dance each quarter is another of the activities of the fraternity. The first and second quarter dances this year were held in the Crystal room of the Fort Kearney hotel. Paul Nielsen’s orchestra played for the first dance, and the orchestra of Adolph Simonek furnished the music for the second. One of the highlights” for the year was the hard time” party. The admission price was unique; members paid one-half cent a pound for their date.”1 Plans for other activities during the third quarter include a stag” picnic, interesting lectures, and a formal dance. Members of the fraternity have been outstanding in many college activities. They were successful in athletics; there were Phi Tails on the varsity football, basketball and track teams. In student government they have been equally successful. For several years, Phi Tau Gamma has been fortunate in having one of its members elected president of the student council. During the last year members were elected to class offices, sang in the Desert Song,” and made” the honor roll, Harlan Shennum is the sponsor of the fraternity, Orval Wills the newly elected presi- dent. Other newly elected officers include Bernard Morris, vice president; Jack McKee, treasurer, and Vernon Payne, secretary. The retiring offiecers were Wilfred Tressider, presi- dent; Harland Richards vice president, and Richard Chadwick, secretary-treasurer. New members are admitted to the fraternity during the first two quarters. Only twenty- one were accepted this year. After the impressive pledging ceremony, the pledges are placed on probation.” This lasts one quarter. At the end of this time, if they have kept their scholastic standing high and have met other requirements, they are admitted as active members of Phi Tau Gamma. Pledges are the chaps you have seen dodging about the balls; they may be recognized by the red and white ribbons they wear, and the powerful odor of mothballs which issues from their clothing. Pag On Hundred Ten The Maintenance Department The department about which it is the most difficult to write and which yet is the means of keeping K. S. T. C. a clean, sanitary place in which to gain knowledge, is the maintenance department. This group is headed by the honorable George Arnold and his associates, Ed Arnold and Charley Elm, each having a degree in dust-ology and are striving for their master’s degree which, I am afraid, will never be granted them, since they are married and their wives are still living. Under the care and training of the above officials arc such lads as you see in the picture who have the prerequisites of a good janitor; at any rate, most of them have. In a very hasty and elaborate interview with Bob” Kuns, one of the lads, it was learned! that in order to be a good janitor one must have a strong back and a weak mind. The patient, good- natured Mr. Kuns, who always insists upon talking about something or other, continued by saying that one must have patience, perseverance and good will toward mankind, togerher with a distinguished personality touched with an essence of perspiration. It would be a difficult task to pick out the most industrious and hard working lad on the force, as all of the handles on the mops and brooms are bowed to a semi-circle—giving each one about the same amount of credit; but as Bryce Newman has to get up in the morning and push a mop around in the library before seven-thirty a. m,, we will give him a slight margin over the other lads and crown him king of the force. By the way, I can not refrain at this time from celling a story on Bryce. One cold winterish morning this winter Bryce was all hot and bothered, prancing back and forth in and out of the janitors1' office. Upon inquiry it was learned that a can of powder, powder puff, and alt that goes with it, had mysteriously disappeared from his overall pocket and he would have to go to his eight o’clock without his makeup. What a predicament Bryce was in! I don’t know the result of this incident but here’s hoping Bryce brings an extra can along with him next time, I hope the rest of the Lads will not feel slighted that I have not mentioned their names or told anything about them. In fact, I think they should feel elated over it. However, I must mention the new janitor Watts. It is a scream to watch him push a broom; bur. oli well, he is a freshman. A sight which is long to he remembered, but which I cannot say is adorable, is the Saturday afternoon mopping crew, minus rheir shirts, swinging mops back and forth across die hall way. As a bit of advice, if you haven’t already had the experience, I suggest that you do not walk up behind this crew when they have just finished mopping before the floor is dry. Why? Well, go ahead and find out if you are that inquisitive. Sorry, lads that I can’t say more about you, but space will not permit. Top Raw-----E, Arnold, D. Slulti, C. Bowden. A. Alirnhanbon.

Zip Club Stanley Newman President VeSTA Bratt______ Vice President Vivian Merryman Secretary Alvin Anderson _____________________________________________________ Treasurer The aim of the Zip Club is to promote loyalty and school spirit and to co-operate at all times with the other organizations of the school.” (I found this quotation in the Student Handbook—did you recognize it? I cannot take the credit for being that familiar with the handbook, as President Stan” told me that the aim of the club was given there. However, he did not say who told him.) Prior to this year the membership was limited to forty members, but last fall the membership was thrown open to all applicants who, after being considered and voted upon by the club, were admitted as members if the vote so signified. This change raised the total membership to sixty-eight students. The club started a fund for the purpose of buying newr band uniforms, by selling candy at the football games. Later in the year the club worked with the lyceum committee, and also helped to raise money for the community milk fund. The club sponsored a trip to the Hastings-Kearney football game, and took the Zip Club members and the band. I must pause here and say a few words about this trip during which many interesting things happened. For example, Bill” Patton and Richard Cheney actually changed tires on Mrs. Sutton's great big” car. The next thing of interest was the rain storm which began during the half-interval—a scamper for shelter—and Mr. Shennum, the band director, tugging away at the big bass drum was trying to get it into a dry place. Now as T drop back to my subject again, I must add that this is the first year that the club has bought insignia sweaters. These sweaters give the club a marked distinction when they appear in a group. It is hoped that this practice will become a tradition with the club. The Zip Club usually decorated the goal poles during the football season. It appears that there was not a man on the job when it came time to decorate the poles for one of the games so the girls proceeded with the task. I don’t know whether step ladders were used, however, it was reported to me that Lola Ferrell became disgusted while trying to climb a pole and exclaimed, Oh! For a pair of trousers!” Pape One Hundred Twelve Lyceum Program The lyceum committee with J, Clark Weaver as chairman has shown excellent taste in choosing for the lyceum program this year numbers of superior quality and pleasing va- riety. In October the Hedgerow Theater of Phila- delphia under the direction of Jasper Dee ter presented the first lyceum number, Beyond the Horizon” by Eugene O’Neill. Kearney students feel fortunate in having the oppor- tunity of witnessing what many critics say is the finest Little Theater in the United Stares, Bringing the second feature of the lyceum program, the Carleton Symphony Band, under the direction of Professor James Robert Gil- lette, appeared in December, This fifty-seven piece band gave a program different from any ever before brought to Kearney. They suc- ceeded in producing band instrumentation com- parable in smoothness only with a symphony orchestra. In January the Manhattan String Quartet fulfilled its reputation as an unusual instru- mental ensemble. The group was composed of Rochinael, Weeinstock, Harris Danziger, Oliver Edcl and Julius Shaicr. Ted Shawn. Edwina Eustis, nationally famous contralto, appeared on the program in February. Miss Eustis reached nation wide fame as a featured soloist over the National Broadcasting chain. Her program was received with much enthusiasm by Kearney students. Somewhat unique in lyceum programs was the Ted Shawn dance group which was presented as the last lyceum number, a group of interpretative dances. Shawn, believing in dancing as an art form for men of action, has developed during the last two years a troupe of dancers employing only men. Shawn says that precision and accuracy, disciplined by mental control are generally considered to be masculine qualities. Even though some women are of the opinion that this point is considered mostly by the men, they will admit that this group demonstrated an unusual amount of precision, accuracy, grace and discipline. % Blue Gold Staff Ruth Bishop Editor Mei.da Ransom Art Editor Stanley Johnson - Literary Staff Doris Wright Literary Staff Margaret Murray ■ Literary Staff Erselia Barton Literary Staff Herbert Smith - Literary Staff Ralph Fortna - Critic Melvin Stedman Literary Staff Janet Ingram Literary Staff t JL T Blue and Gold Board Charles Apel Alma Hosic wf f % («♦’% - ju Jk jL- l — r V Blue Gold Staff Gzneviev'e Keenan Business Manager Stanley Newman Maxine Rossen Jim Brownell Howard Spieth George Henigan Max Houtchens Vesta Bratt Royal Henline Hattie Steinberg Circulation Mgr. ■ Freshman Editor Advertising Mgr. junior Editor Assistant Bus.

OF PaRe One Hundred Twenty-seven WELCOME WELCOME The Blues In the Gold A s; A S5 GREEN DELUGE TO Chapter I KEARNEY In the beginning, which means the Dark Ages, and which, obviously, was Blue on account of its being Dark, this college decided that it was not satisfied with its supply of green—trees, shrubs, grass, ink—and so there came to be a Green Deluge or surfeit of green on this campus—that which is now called Freshmen and which is a combination of the Blue, occasioned t t by the blase attitude of the Sophomores, and Gold, which denotes the atti- tude of the Seniors upon graduation. We Are a i i i m However, this surfeit of Green became a menace on account of its starting to disintegrate the lethargic spirit,—which has heretofore pervaded the campus,—limh from tree, therefore it was decided to dislodge this Deluge. That could not be done, however, for the Freshman idea had its tentacles on the very throat of the college—being as how Freshmen seem to evolve into Seniors. The Task of curbing the damage being wrought, Always Glad To and which has started to be wrought each year, was handed to the eager Sophomores. Serve You t t In spite of the nauseating effect brought on by Freshmen, they are responsible for two good things: namely, they provide upperclass tennis men with forehand practice, and they provide other upperclass men with daces which they could not get from upperclass women on account of said gals being here long enough to catch on. FORT Chapter II While we were in the Dark Ages, there were many things on the campus, some of them Good and some of them Bad, which were called fraternities and hence Greeks on account of they used Spanish and Scotch and especially Greek names, such as Sigma Theta Phi, Caledonian, Phi KEARNEY Tau Gamma, Pi Kappa Delta, Juanita, F. E. R, A., Y. W. C. A., and N. R. A. STATE In the fall, they invented an Inter-Fraternity Council, which was a Good Thing and saved all the Greeks from dying of a surfeit of pledge starvation and co-operation with the school. It was organized especially to BANK keep these fraternities from getting in a run-down condition, and from antagonizing each other, and from other things which fraternities are in the habit of doing and which they want no more of. t f Chapter III Those which are known as college students have descended so high, this last year, in their senile and pedantic old age that they have become quite childish and do such things as wander aimlessly, rush hither and yon with no apparent destination, but especially do they depart from their Kearney, Nebr. aged stolidity and succumb to that plague in its embryonic stage of de- velopment—the plague which has ravaged our college ranks, spread con- fusion and consternation, and otherwise rendered the students devoid of any maturity whatsoever. Pagp One Hundred Twenty-eight My fran,” is the very usual comment one hears in the halls and classrooms, your puerility is disappointing You have contracted that infantile disease—measles—known as misellus, a contagious eruptive febrile disorder of the epidermis Such a remark is enough to make some cry, and some laugh, for measles has the reputation of keeping one out of school, from attending his fraternity dance, and other various irritating things aside from the in- fantine discomfort occasioned by the disease. CORPUS POLITICUS. Chapter IV AH because of a whiff of grapenuts, the students decided to have an election which was memorable on account of it made the students think and which, afterwards, was called heckling’11 because of the attitude of the energetic toward those who suffer from a surfeit of inertia. As a result of this wave of politics, there were three parties (and five dances) organized which were called F. E. R. A., Pi Kappa Delta, and Aspasiam. There was no Dark Horse—that which holds an unquestionable advantage in any campaign—and so there resulted a stalemate and no riot which was not expected. Because of a surfeit of soap boxes—great quantities of soap being needed to clean the dust (the dust being quite dirty)—the contestants became discriminating and used the stage for their heckling.” This was a Bad Thing, for it took advantage of the students and provided an interest- I ing convocation and so deprived them of their sleep. Bill Anderson—a respectable character but an Introvert—was elected president for next year. Matt Pilling, a gloomy Irishman and a Con- | servative, paid a very meagre sum for vice presidency—which accounts for the fact that his powers will be curtailed during next year, resulting in his being detailed to wind docks. BLACK INCIDENTS Chapter V In the spring, there occurred some incidents which were black and which marred the pure blue” surface of college life. These incidents were memorable on account of they almost obliterated the election and brought forth many remarks of I told you so.” These dusty incidents were also odorous and left a bad taste pervading the atmosphere which gritted like eating sandy spinach. In fact, they marred the blue” surface so much that it looked grey and so this began to look like the grey’s in the gold.” However, this could not be, for that would result in a surfeit of G’s and hence a gug- ging” sound. All these black incidents seemed very selfish of Nature, for they always happened at very important times. However, they brought about an influx of outside cleaning talent which revived the flagging spirits of the veterans and resulted in a general attack on the dust. These black incidents, which were obviously Bad Things and conse- quently blue,” continued until the people got tired of the dust. They then decided that one of two things could be done: (I) they could go to bed and sleep it off, or (2) they could do nothing, which was done.

Page One Hundred Twenty-nine FLOWERS FOR EVERY OCCASION ► Kearney Floral and Nursery Company DOORS f f I or THE BEGINNING OF THE END Chapter VI As you approach your debacle—graduation—be- come exceedingly wary concerning the many tempting offers of jobs and salaries which are sure to be hurled at you immediately the college doors close behind you. Do not be credulous and allow yourself to be inveigled into a paying position. Perhaps you had better leave the doors open, just in case . . . but then that would not be so good, for dust has a habit of coming through doors. Among other things we do not want at college, we do not want dust. Be subtle—do not come back. It is a good plan to always leave doors open (except during dust storms) for then you are prepared for either an impelling and hasty exit or an open retreat when you need refuge and solace. In either situation your leave will be facilitated by open doors. Do not try to observe happenings on the other side of doors through the keyhole. It is not adequately large enough for you to grasp the whole situation and then your vision may be colored. Always open doors in a brave manner. In the case of swinging doors, always keep to the left except when instructed to keep to the right. In that instance, I should advise you to use your own judgment. Personally, my solution is to let other people open the doors. The only thing wrong with that solu- tion is that in life, real life, other people don’t open doors, That, gentle readers, will be the cause of the death of your correspondent at the end of History.” FINALE APOLOGIA Chapter VII Like a good preface, which is always written last, this was written first—hence must be relegated to the rear for it contains only a few words of admonition to those who may take these chapters too seriously. Do not brood too much on the futility of life, for these pages are only to remind you of those fickle days when you, too, were gentlemen and scholars. This kaleidoscopic effect of the school year just ending—mainly flashes of blue and gold garnered with gritty black and sickened with green—is to be placed in an out of the way corner where it is to be forgotten. When you are in a gay and festive mood you may take it out, dust off moss and dead leaves, and again weep over those good times which will happen no more (and especially those which didn’t happen.) Your correspondent takes this opportunity for apologizing for nothing. Some day we shall meet again and then these words will recur, Is History Dead?” Hang on, ye dons, for we don’t know if history is dead.

Directions for Scoring Test (Objective) Count the number of questions which were an- swered, subtract the number right from this total and divide by the number wrong. To this quotient add two cyphers and that will be the score for the test. Now, the score must be interpreted into an absolute value which will denote the functional relationship between your educability and reciprocal inertial force (as out- lined in Scorndike p. 13-67), This absolute value is calculated from the following formula: SB� 5 A V= 2 L 5 Log23 X-Cos O V_6 x_S____K V O 2 F — D V P Where, A V is the absolute Value S is the score for the test L is the number of hours of lost sleep the night before K is the candy bars eaten before taking the test F is Friday night D is the Dormitory P is the Probability curve O (Greek letter for Sigma) is a just value. Furthermore, all objective tests must be checked and re-checked and re-checked and re-checked again, because it is quite obvious that no two persons will get the same answer for the Absolute Value. Consequently the following spaces have been provided in order that those who have checked and re-checked may sign their names, giving also the answer which they obtained. (Note: Do not average the results for the final answer or the rest will he unreliable).

As you remember 1934 and '35 it was not the big noise we were so much interested in as it was the faint whispers here and there. In the space allotted me I will transcribe a few of the items which I consider the most interesting and which were criti rized the most both by those who know any thing about journalism and those at whom the articles were aim- id. Occasionally notes will be added to aid your memory and to make necessary corrections. Remember this one?—Iris T. wants me to relinquish my dignified position and start a matrimonial column. She evidently wants me to do a lax bush ness as there have been very few marriages this year. However, folks, if there is any way I can help you, or if you have anything to contribute along the above mentioned train of chatter your willing correspondent will lend his (reasonable) assistance. (Have often wondered why Iris made that request. Couldn’t be because she and Stan N. were on such friendly terms, because Melba wouldn’t stand for that.) We knew this would happen too: —At the Hastings football game (the night it rained) Shennum told the band to play the music as it was originally written and leave out the fly specks.
