The Teachers’ College Team, suffering from many eason ' reverses, the loss of great players, the discontinuance of football, and the vi'-'irucnt re-adoption with its dearth of good material, took the greatest -tride this year toward its old place among the state teams of any year in this century. Beginning with most of the old team and some good Freshman material, and a good fcthtiug spirit. Coach Pasini developed a machine that carried the purple and gold to some notable victories. Beginning with the practice game with East Waterloo High, we rolled tip 27 points in a sea of mud, carried off Ellsworth’s scalp the next week to the tune of 17 !«• 5 the 5 being accidental, and—well, just here a slump occurred which resulted in Clark College getting away with a 6-0 victory, the head linesman having one moment of wake- fulness long enough to ruin the one touchdown we made. This slump also resulted in some- thing else It resulted in “The Paddle.” But to resume: The Big Blue Team went on the warpath again, pushed the Cornell team to their limit during the second half, scored on them by straight football, and narrowly lost two other touchdowns. The following week St. Joe was encountered in the middle of the Mississippi at Dubuque (at least that is where the buys t hot‘the game was played). This game resulted in no score. Both goal lines and goal posts were under the water to such an extent that the officials couldn’t see that any scoring was done. Then followed those two glorious home games in which we took Simpson arid I'ppcr Iowa into camp by 11-5 and 6-5 “respectfully.’’ Respectfully is the word. So that in spite of the inclement weather, and the typhoid situation, the season was voted immensely successful. It demonstrated a new problem for the mathematical fans which ran something like this: If x equals that indefinable something known as college spirit, then Pa ini plus tlx Paddle equals x. A fair idea of the ranking of our team may be had by considering a few special facts. We were the only team in the state outside of Ames to score on Cornell. Captain Frye was selected as tackle on the ALL-STATE team. Because of the good showing made during the year wc have been placed on Iowa’s 1912 schedule, a coveted place that has not been ours for several years. To distribute the credit would be an impossible task. Captain Frye and his warriors fattled well and pass down a record that we can all be proud of. We’re glad that Pasini has come down to drive, yea, to Paddle us to victory, and with most of this year’s eleven back and the promising Freshmen, Captain-elect Anderson will have the opportunity of leading the best Teachers College football team that ever donned the moleskin. 85 STbf 1912 2DIH «goin 86 ®be 1912 HDin 8ol 87 Ht)f 1912 iDIti 0in BASKETBALL TEAM, 1911-12 1012 £ lti «olt basket Ball IB HILE the football team won most of its games but ended heavily in debt, the basketball team lost most of its games but ended with all its bills paid and then — some. With Captain Robinson, the only former player back, Coach Pasini was obliged to spend most of the season in teaching the rudiments of the game to raw’ material. The tirst game with Lenox College was won easily, but the other games proved too rough for our inexperienced men. Then, too, the officiating has been hardly twice alike, and that demoralizes team work more than anything else. To those of us who watched the entire schedule; sonic great examples of development were to be seen that look good for next year. And to all who saw the closing game with Iowa on February 29, when we led the last five minutes bf play and then only lost by five points, must have come the thought, “The season’s work has not been in vain.” Playing one of the strongest schedules ever arranged for a Teachers College Team, our men would battle to within a few points of victory, and the victors knew in each case that they had been given a battle royal. Coach Pasini has shown the men real basketball, and next years team ought to show’ the benefit of this year’s work. feummarp December 15 Teachers College 36 Lenox January 13 Teachers College 21 Coe .... 24 January 19 Teachers College 25 Clark .... 32 January 23 Teachers College. 17 Charles City .... 40 January 2 T eachers College 8 Iowa .... 28 February 2 i eachcrs College 19 Clark .... 13 February 3 Teachers College Cornell .... 50 February 9 Teachers College 17 Cornell ... 32 February 23 Teachers College 9 Coe ■ •.. 35 February 29 Teachers College 16 Iowa 384 286 Huston was elected captain for 1912-13, and with the most of this year’s team back, Coach Pasini will have some good material to start w’ith, and a stronger team should result. 89 Cbe 1912 £DIU «oID BASEBALL TEAM. 1911 90 me 1912 spin SolD Baseball CHE spring of 1911 saw the best baseball team during the past five years. With only ' thirteen candidates, it was necessary to invite the local High School team to come out and practice with us, but a hard fighting team was developed. Coach Seymour and Captain Boltz worked hard on the material, and the team work smoothed up in good shape A summary of the games shows a creditable record to hand down to the 1912 team: April 22 Teachers College 3 Ellsworth ... 3 April 28 'Teachers College 3 Cornell ... 5 April 29 Teachers College 8 Clark ... 3 May 6 Teachers College 8 Ellsworth • •• 4 May 12 Teachers College 2 Upper Iowa .... 0 May 20 Teachers College 3 Clark ... 8 May 25 Teachers College Cornell June 3 'Teachers College St. Joe ... 8 29 42 H. G. Ludeman Was elected captain for the 1912 team and at the opening of the season it looks like he would have the best team that ever represented the college. A strong staff of pitchers, together with some experienced men for support and the best schedule ever, ought to mean a winning team. Coach Pasini will handle the baseball team this year, flic following schedule has been adopted for this season and will test the mettle of our team: April 26—St. Joe at Dubuque. April 27—tapper Iowa at Fayette. April 30—Grinnell at Grinnell. •May 3—Ellsworth at Iowa Falls. .May 4—Highland Park at Dcs Moines. May 6—Clark at Cedar Falls. May 9—Coe at Cedar Rapids. May 10—Cornell at Mt. Vernon. ' May 11—Clark at Toledo. May 18—Grinnell at Cedar Falls. May 21—Highland Park at Cedar Falls. May 24—Coe at Cedar Falls. May 28— Upper Iowa at Cedar Falls. June 1—St. Joe at Cedar Falls. With four such pitchers as Richards, Huston, Ludeman, and Higbee, this schedule ought to give our team the best opportunity to make a name for itself that we’ve ever had. And with Coach Pasini and his “paddle” we can confidently look for a fine record. 9i THE TRACK TEAM, ion ©be 1912 £ lb «olti Crack Iff HE season of 1911 in track athletics proved to be a good one for Teachers College.

At the State Meet held at Grinnell, May 19, Captain Begeman won first place in the running broad jump, clearing twenty feet. George Dunphy was elected captain for 1912. but did not return to school. The summaries show that Coach Perrine’s men did faithful work. The best performers are still in school and with these as a nucleus, Mr. Seymour hopes to build up a team that will eclipse all of our recent teams. Begeman is here for the low hurdles and broad jumps, Schluter is on deck for the distance runs, ready to make some records, Cleveland is here for the high jump and high hurdles. Mitchell is in for the sprints, and Frye is ready to heave the discus out of the lot. In addition. Fearing and Heironimus give promise of adding strength to the team, while Lenhart. Scallon and others begin to show form in the various events. The 1912 schedule comprises the Individual Meet, pril 20, to the Home Meet, April 27, Cornell Dual, May 4, Highland Park Dual, May n. State Meet, May 17, and a dual with the Iowa Freshmen, May 25. With these contests in prospect the men will get down to real work and the coach will have plenty to think about. 94 WATER BASKETBALL J.

Kramer Myron Begem an T. B. Anderson HE Fourth nnual State Collegiate Gymnastic Meet occurred on March 9th in con junction with the Exhibition of the Department of Physical Education. The entries included Iowa, Drake, Luther, and I. S. T. C. Drake’s team failed to materialise rapidly enough to warrant their coming, and Iowa’s team was prevented by lack of funds, altho their team was ready and in fine condition. They were picked as the logical winners. The Luther College team appeared in their customary “Pca-Grccns” and were apparently about as strong as in previous years. The Teachers College team, however, was the victim of a series of setbacks. Mr. Seymour had planned on building his team around Sheffield, the star of former years, and Hoxc, the new star from Vinton College. On January 1st, Sheffield became the Physical Director of the Charles City Y. M. C. A. and left school. Soon after, Hoxe was called home because of the sickness in his sister's family, and on top of all this, Miller of last year’s team was stricken down three days before the meet, and had it not been for the volunteering of Anderson, the team would have been hopelessly outclassed by the loss of one man in three events. However, Anderson was in good condition, and with two days’ practice, made a very creditable showing. Two practice try-outs were had previously with the Waterloo Y. M. C. . which gave a fairly good idea as to the condition of the team, and by the day of the meet, every man was in the finest condition, as is evidenced by their score of 263.6 points when their best previous performance was 235. Every man arose to the situation and fairly out-did himself in form and execution, and when the battle was over y . points were all that separated us from our two years’ title of State Champions. That means that another year will see that title returning to us, for four of this year’s team return, and Hoxe is expected back to fill the fifth place. Si M MARY : Horizontal Bar Luther 52.15 I. S.

Over ten years ago our band—just thirty then- began its journey. Xow as it marches in imagination before us we count them by the hundreds. Here and there in the line, faces of dear comrades are seen and are gone. Can we recall some names from the classes of each year? There is Case, Clark, Cross, Craney, Chase, Coffman, Chambers, Hunter, Hiddleson, Huntly, Hoffman, Hughlim, Rippcl, Roberts, Rice, Roebuck, Robinson, Ellis, Eighmey, Stuart, Schneckcloth, Sterr, Sandager, Sherrcbeck, Shedd.

But what significant facts are shown by an alphabetical study of all the rolls? Chresto knows no “1,” “Ich dien” has been realized. The only ego present is that mighty force underlying service for others. And where are the representatives for X, V, Z?—none can be found. No Chresto is found at the foot of the class. These names arc merely repre- sentatives. Hundreds of others there arc, as worthy. Thus would we answer the question. “Who are we?” Our goal is summed up in the meaning of our name, Chrestomathians, searchers for things higher and more useful. Our hopes are led on by the significance of our colors, cream denoting purity tinged with the richness of life, wine for its fruit tested by heart throbs. Our stay is the anchor twined with the myrtle sacred to Venus. Thus would we answer the question, “Where are we going?” The golden dreams of our first sisters are being realized. Many air castles have become real castles. Our social ideals are drawing us toward ideals more elevated than we could attain alone. In the friendships here formed, treasures for life arc being stored. The sharing and bearing with others is bringing joy never to be forgotten. Thus we are working, helping, cheering, serving: yes, and we are having a jolly good time doing it, too. “So here’s to the Chrestomathians, we sing, Her .songs of praises ring, Her loyalty still wTe bring. So here’s to the Chrestomathian colors true, The cream and wine, all honor be to you.” 144 1912 ©IU (ffoIU Confi rntial Cfjats Did you know that one of the Chresto girls ends her correspondence “Lovingly, Mae B.”?

Veotrophia has ever stood for the highest in literary attainment and many honors have come to her. In the second year of her existence occurred the first oratorical contest, the first place going to the Meotrophians. A little later, in 1896, the honors of the first Pentagonal Debate came to us, and again in 1907 the Women's Oratorical Contest was won by our orator. In athletics also, “new trophies” were gained when our basketball team last year won the shield in the inter-society games. The fall “rushing” season was a merry time for all of us with its spreads, picnics, and receptions, and closing wuth a party up the river at the McAIvin Cottage, where our Freshies” were properly initiated. About the middle of February, the annual Veotrophian Banquet was held in the gymnasium with the Honorary Neo as guests. Then the Honorary Members, w’ho have ever been an inspiration to the girls to work for the honor of the “Corn and Blue”, are: Miss Rice, Miss Hughes, Miss Kaufman, Miss Fargo, Miss Houk, Miss Stenwall, Miss Wilbur, Miss Nolte, Mr. Wilbur, Prof, and Mrs. C. A. Fullerton, Prof, and Mrs. Robert Fullerton, Prof, and Mrs. Cable, Prof, and Mrs. Frampton, Mr. Adolph Kramer, Mrs. H. C. Oleson, Dr. and Mrs. Wesley Wiler,.and I)r. and Mrs. W. L. Hearst. Pledged Neos are: Burnedina Kruger, Margaret Fullerton, Jean Frampton. Wc are proud of our post and hopeful of our future, confident of the loyalty of our cirls who “wave aloft the corn and blue, our colors dear”, and happy in the memory of the days wc passed together, we all join in the shout—“LONG LIVE MEOTKOPHIA.” 149 srtje 1912 flDin «oIB me 1912 Spin (Sam )€ 1912 £D U 6oIt) 152 Hi)e 1912 2DID 80IU THE NEOSI YGERS 153 Ht e 1012 flDIU (Solft Cold Storage Plant, 326 W. 13th St., Waterloo, Iowa.

UCH is the feeling of each Zcta girl as she looks back to the many good times silt has had this year. The picnics and the parties made each girl feel that she wa indeed fortunate to be a Zeta. A picnic was given at The Springs, where an uninvited guest—the rain, hastened u home. Later the newly pledged members were delightfully entertained at the Lalan home. How well do we remember the initiation at Hostrup's cottage. As the advanced guard explored the surrounding country, they were delightfully surprised in finding hosts oi violets in full bloom which heralded to us good fellowship, and happy times to come. Good luck to any one else who finds violets in October! Here, after the new girls had taken the pledge to become loyal Zetas, they were compelled to perform various stunts which varied from “climbing the inclined plane” to “washing in the ‘Fountain of Youth .” Can any Zcta ever forget the journey homeward which, for lack of boats, had to be made overland; Such a journey could only be appreciated by our forefathers as they traveled westward atros? the continent. At Christmas time a party was held in the Old Gymnasium. Here a beautiful Christmas tree was laden with gifts for all the members. Y ith each present was an appropriate verse which caused much merriment when read. One event of the year to which all the girls will look back with pleasure and satisfaction, is the party the Ossolis gave in honor of the Zetas and their honorary members. Surely the Ossolis proved themselves royal entertainers, and the happy evening spent with them has done much to further the friendly, sisterly spirit which exists between the societies. The above are only a few of the many good times we have had, and as the year rolls by, the Seniors have a feeling of deep regret that this is their last year, while the Juniors look forward with pleasant anticipation for the coming year. 164 m)t 1912 ©It «olt 165 ®be 1912 ©IU «oID ©elpfnan Colors Tan and White Society Flower White Carnations Motto Fit V ia V i Society Yells W hang!

S. T. C we see many girls wenv. a small S. C. monogram pin. Our interest is immediately aroused and we ask. “ ho’s who?” The answer comes back, “Why, those privileged young ladies arc the Shakespearean girls, for short called ‘Shakes’.” Now, lo an outside observer, the only way to know exactly who the ‘Shakes' are, is to visit society hall some Friday afternoon when society is in session. Here you find some forty girls or more, presided over by their dignified president and more dignified critic, in the act of giving their weekly program, consisting i a literary and business meeting. Shakespeare himself could scarcely rival the genius and the executive ability that is displayed in one of these literary programs. Much credit is due Miss Lambert, our faculty adviser and critic, for her untiring efforts- in furthering the interests of the Society. Our motto is, “The End Crowns All,” and by her help we are endeavoring to make our future a nearer approach to the ideal we have in mind. Aside from the regular work of the society, part of the time is devoted to social diver- sion. Each year there is a joint initiation with our brother Aristos, for the new member?, rush spreads, a Christmas party just before the holidays, and an annual banquet But between these affairs are interspersed many impromptu “Privates,” making the whole year a mixture of literary and social obligations. Spirit and enthusiasm is a characteristic of the Shake Girls and a shake from a “Shake is one of the many things that help along the spirit of S. T. C. The snapshot shows the girls to be a jolly bunch, all wide-awake and full of fun. To you who are reading this now: If ever you are subject to attacks of despondency, there are these words of encouragement: Come to S. T. C. Shake! See the Shakes! Be a Shake!

In the former, Philo has made no little achievement and for the past two years has made an enviable record in both debating and oratory. On the inter-collegiate debate it was able to furnish ten out of twelve men in 1910-11 and one-half the total number in 1911-12. In the triangular debate of the spring of 191J, five out of a possible six points were won by the representatives of the pink and white. Again, in oratory does Philo come to the front. During the past year its repre- sentatives have won places on every oratorical and declamatory contest held in the school. In two of them it was a Philo who captured first place, besides winning the honor of representing the school in the inter-state contest held at Emporia, Kansas, on May 3rd. Such arc the achievements of a society that stands true to its motto, Vita sine litteris rnorp est.” 180 Ct)f 1912 016 «0I6 Jn Upmnnam IGffilt? 3L (Sumpto n 1837 mi igo 191 ®be 1912 2DID «oIH Aristotelian feoctrtp FOUNDED 1886 Colors Red and Black Motto “Non Scholae Sed Vitae Officers Fall Term, 1911 ,, ., ( Willard Patty Presidents . . . . . , ...

They have always endeavored to attain the highest standards by engaging in all the activities that are the means of development both mentally and physically. The literary ability of the Aristos has been recognized by all. Through the spirit of co-operation, and by diligent work, they have kept abreast with their rival societies by placing two men on the Morningside debate. The outlook for a victorious triangular team for the spring term is very hopeful. Besides taking active part in public speaking activities, the Aristos are noted for their superior athletic abilities. In the spring of 1911 they were victorious in the inter-society baseball contest, defeating the Orios 9 to 0, and the Philos 1 to o. They have also held the basketball championship pennant for the past four years. 192 KISTOTELb N' SOC IETY ARISTO BASKETBALL TEAM V 1912 ©IU «Oiu 19s 1912 ©ID «olt ©rto ORGANIZED 1893 Colors White and Gold Motto “Ever onward, step by step” Presidents Vice-Presidents .

C. have come to be the center around which practically all school endeavor swings. Prom the standpoint of the forensic, oratorical, and athletic, it has been the aim of Orio to preserve a perfect balance; to do her full share in all activities of the school. It has been our policy to take a new man, not for what he has been or has done, but for what he can do, and to give him the chance to fill the best place, in relation to his fellows, of which he is capable. Our record is the best testimonial of the success which this policy has brought. In 1893 was held the first of the Triangular debates between the men’s societies. Orio took the lead, one which she has since maintained with an increasing number of marginal points. Last year it was an Orio who won the Interstate Oratorical against five states. Two of the three men contesting for the honor of representing the school this year were Orios. In dramatic work, and the casting of the school plays, Orios have taken leading parts. In intercollegiate debates Orio has furnished her full quota. Orio is well represented in the staffs of The College Eye and The Old Gold and in the musical organizations and religious work of the school. Xor have the wearers of the Star and Crescent been idle in school athletics. An Orio captained the football team and was selected as all Iowa tackle. Another Orio took the broad jump at the state meet, and still another captained the track team. Four of the basketball squad are Orios. Six of the football team wore the Yellow and White. In a social way, Orio, with the sister society, Clio, has done much to relieve the strain or continual work. Joint initiation, Hallowe’en parties, “wienie” roasts, the annual Cliorio banquet have been occasions of pleasure and value. Orio stands for the best in men. It is our purpose to bring out this best. Our record, gained through persistent and consistent work, is our testimonial. To the old men, a word from Orio is not needed; to the new men coming to I. S. T. C. the doors swing in to Cliorio Hall with the hope that Orio will do for you what it has done for us. 197 ORIO SOCIETY OHIO BASKETB LL TE Xl F OK-1() DEBATERS 1912 ©ID «olD ORIO DEBATERS 201 abf 1912 DIU «fllB ORIO QUARTETTE 202 me 1912 2 ID (BolU oto Paradise {Cells 3t “Faith, women are riddles,” I muttered one day.

It has been our policy to give a social side to the daily routine by furnishing an occasional social hour, where the men may meet and learn to know the other fellow. Twenty-five years ago, the oung Men’s and Young Women’s Christian Associations were organized at I. S. T. C, then the State Normal School. From a small beginning, they have come to play a most important part in the life of the school, and the influence for Christian education going out from it. It was deemed best to give three days for the commemoration of their twenty-fifth birthday. Speakers of national renown, programs fraught with earnest and helpful thought made the occasion one never to be forgotten s a fitting close to a quarter century of work, a deep impression of the worthiness of it all was indelibly stamped upon the student body. 208 £f)f 1912 £ IU 60IU Y.

Previous to this time there had been an organization among the Catholic students, but in 1903 a charter was obtained, and the Association began systematic work. This year new conditions, and increased membership necessitated the revision of the constitution. This year special attention has been given to church history and church doctrine. In 1911 an auxiliary of the Catholic Extension Society of the United States was formed for the benefit of home missions. It is the intention of the members to contribute money for the building of a chapel in some out-of-the-way place. The Catholic Alumni have given hearty co-operation in this matter. This division of the work is in charge of Miss Anna Doffing. The Association has a library of several hundred volumes and a reading room which some of the friends of the Association have kindly helped to furnish. A number of current magazines and weekly papers keep the students in touch with the prominent movements in the Church. A number of very successful social events have been held during the year to bring the members closer together.

Since that time no year has passed without the work being carried on by its members. At the beginning of the school year 1910-1911 began the more active reorganization of the League. Its members decided that they could best carry out the work of the League by having a literary program once each month. This plan was carried out through the year. When we organized this year we modified the above plan by having work from a posed model twice each month. After the holidays, when the League again took up its work, we had grown so enthusiastic that we made «'till further changes. Xow we meet once each week. On three consecutive Wednesdays, from half past three o’clock till half past five, we draw from the model.

Several years of agitation Jj resulted in the formation of the organization in 1908. A number of things combined to call it forth. For a number of years graduates of the State Normal School at Cedar Falls have been gladly welcomed into the advanced work of the University. In the midst of the new and varied life of the University, this large body of students felt a desire to do something to preserve the memories of earlier student days and to weld together the traditions and influences of the two great state schools, lthough interested in different courses in the University and coming from different years of the course at Cedar Falls, they still realized that they had much in common from earlier days that should not be allowed to pass out of their lives. Another element entering into the plan was the desire for the inspiration and enlargement of vision to come from the annual meeting with President Seerley and such other members of the faculty from Cedar Falls as might be able to attend the meeting.' from time to time. These early ties and the enthusiasm for both the old and the new were the prime interests that brought about this organization. Up to the present time the Club has attempted no definite work excepting to conduct its business meetings and to hold an annual banquet at which its members, members of the faculty at Cedar Falls, and members of the University faculty are present. The membership of graduates at present is about a hundred, and the fourth annual banquet held February 13. 1912, was an enthusiastic and successful gathering, as the former ones have been. T!ie interest and influence of the meetings are increasing. The officers having the last meeting in charge were: R. F. Clough, M. Di., ’07 . Prof. B. J. Lambert, M. Di., ’07 John S. Hilliard, B. Di., ’06 . The outlook for coming years is very education in both the institutions represented President Vice-President Secretary-Treasurer bright and promises something greater for and in the state at large. 234 STfje 1912 £)lt 5olt ■i� .1... 11 i .-.ru: b ■ i.i inTT’C'l „ THE HOAD TO MERE MANS' HEART-Ffc 235 DOMESTIC SC IENCE SENIORS ®be 1912 £ ID $o!ti ©omcsttc J ricnec Armors- ■ JROM all the corners of the state, the Domestic Science Seniors have come to spend Jf two delightful and thoughtful years, learning those things that make for happiness. They go not to the state alone but to all parts of the United States spreading the go j� el of cleanliness, economy and method. The years have been full of fun and good times, and a jollier, more congenial group of girls is not to be found in school. Our fun and pleasure has to be judiciously mixed with work and study, and we are loyal enthusiasts of our course. Wo do not want the privilege of electing our own work. We much prefer to study advanced Physiology and feel that we could not perform our office as teachers without at least six terms of College Chemistry. A new department of Domestic Science has been established in the Central Grade School of the city, and we have gained much valuable experience as teachers there. When our advanced pupils tell us that one of the principal proteids in meat is adenoids, we realize that fields are waiting for us all over the world. We have established our reputation, our capacity for concentrated thinking, and our ability as good cooks, by serving scientific meals on small amounts of money. With two years of the most thorough training, we have been able to evolve from as small a sum as one dollar and seventv-fivc cents, a pretty and nutritious four-course luncheon so planned that the relation of food principles is just what it should be according to the latest conclusions of the foremost scientists. As demonstrators, we have clearly explained to our audiences that, by utilizing all the parts of the food ingredients, vve are able to live much better than we do. On the other hand, we have tried to prove that there is a scientific reason for everything in cooking and our work has the theoretical as well as the practical side. Our work has covered fields wide and various. So there is the knowledge of hygiene, '.tnitation and physiology we have gained under Professor Xcwton's instruction that, during the recent epidemic, not one case of typhoid appeared among us. As we go out from this institution we deem it proper to whisper a few things into the Junior car. If your room-mate is a Domestic Science girl, make your sewing samplers, etc., just alike. In case you get real busy you can hand in her work. This scheme never fails, [f you are working with explosives in the laboratory, at the first sign of danger jump quickly and gracefully into your locker. It will save your shirt-waist. When serving a luncheon, look carefully at the bread and butter spreaders to be sure they are not the fruit knives in disguise. Finally, when you arc ready for your house plan, do not sneak it from “The House Beautiful.” You will find there are others with the same thought in mind. Moreover, Miss Townsend has looked over them and would recognize them even in disguise. Then here’s to the Domestic Science girl! May her coffee and slander against her. alike be without grounds! 237 STije 1912 DIU «olli DOMESTIC SCIENCE JUNIORS 238 Gtyf 1912 2DK «olD 239 JUNIOR PRIMARIES Ms JUNIOR PRIMARIES SENIOR PRIMARIES ZDe 1912 HD IU «olli special rtntarp Colors—Old Gold and Black.

The Towa State Teachers College maintains special courses for the purpose of preparing young men and women to become teachers of Manual Training in the public schools. Three different courses are offered: i. For those pre- senting first grade uniform county certificates for entrance, a three-year course leading to a special manual training diploma. • 2. For those graduating from a four-year High School, a two-year course leading to a special diploma. 3. For those meeting the regular college entrance requirements, a four-year course leading to the degree of Bachelor of Arts. Excellent rooms and equipment have been provided for the carrying on of the special work of the Manual Training Department. Instruction is given in all the important lines of this work now found in the public schools, including the special forms of work for the primary and intermediate grades as well as the more advanced work for grammar grades and high school. Courses in the theory and method are also given. The practical and interesting nature of the manual training work, the form- ative stage in which the work is found, the good salaries paid to special teachers, and the prospect for advancement, are features which make it an unusually attractive field for teachers and one which any young man or woman may profit- ably consider as a vocation. 256 1912 2DIU «olto 257 1)£ 1912 ©I® «Ol® V V Wv , SIOUX 258 an e 1912 0ID «oltJ Cruc to Life Into physiology class As each student takes his place look of blank despair Is written on each face.

Dear Bob: I know I haven’t written you for six whole weeks, but you musn’t get mad. because I've been awfully busy. -Your last letter sounded jealous, but that i unnecessary, for you know there arc only a very few boys up here. So rest at ease. Now for what I’ve done these weeks of silence. Well, school opened the fifth of September. Did you know that? 1 thought not. And I enrolled. Good- ness gracious, but it was a fearful ordeal, lots worse than standing in line for theater tickets. Now I can sympathize with you. September sixth, the Senior class organized, and we poor freshies felt rather small, for the Seniors were mighty important, or thought so at least. But the B. .Vs or “Cap and Gown Club” organized about the same time, and they were the “most important” of all. You could distinguish one a block away by the style of walking.” What interested me most were the society receptions. The Shakes gave the eleventh, the Clios the fourteenth, the Alpha the fifteenth, and the Neos the nineteenth. In fact, all the societies had their turn. The new girls were cer- tainly kept busy, but we enjoyed it, and all the receptions were so lovely. Champ Clark opened the lecture course and it was fine; I wish you could have heard it. Won’t you plan to come to some of our lecture courses? I want to show you to the girls. “Verstchcn sie?” President Seerley entertained the Faculty on September thirtieth, and wouldn’t I have liked to be a little mouse in the wall? I think Nature must have been decidedly against the frivolous actions of the faculty, for she wept so that night that some really had to give up going. Too bad, wasn’t it? We had a fine chapel speech about two weeks ago, when a very eloquent, fiery young lad, Glenn Davis is his name, I think, gave u ; an address upon the 276 Ebe 1912 2DIU «olli subject, “Pep.” He is a wonderful orator, of marvelous abilit). You ought to have heard him. He would have literally swept you off your feet. But the treat came October fourth, when we saw an airship sailing in the air at the Aviation Meet here. It was a windy day, so the man couldn’t fly very high, but he flew just the same, and it was so inspiring. Initiation stunts arc beginning now, and the new girls are holding their breath, for fear they’ll never get it again. The “news” had theirs October thir- teenth, and 1 guess the new girls thought the thirteenth was a hoodoo day all right. The tenth and thirteenth brought other Senior meetings. Their import- ance, the Seniors, not the meetings, passes all words and description. On the fourteenth the Clios had their initiation with the Orios, the Alphas had their reception, and the Ossolis also had their initiation. We all hope we will survive. I wish you were here to protect me. Today, Governor Carroll was at the college. Oh, we arc important people up here, believe me, and have distinguished guests. I must close now and study, for I’m getting to be a very diligent student: I hope this letter will make up for the past neglect. Write soon. NELLIE. March 21. 1912.

Dear Lt : Fm terribly ashamed to think of that big fat letter of yours which I received before Christmas, and to realize that it remains unanswered. But I am going to make up for my laziness by writing you every bit of news I can find out anything about from the time you left up to the present. I surely have missed you this 278 STbe 1012 2Dlt «alb term, hut it is certainly fine that you can he on such a fine trip. Lots of people inquire about you very often, and I always feel guilty when I say 1 owe you a letter. Now' for the news. The winter term opened December 5, and of course there was the usual pleasure of scheduling. They have a new system now, so it was really much easier. The next event of any importance was a lecture given by the late Alfred Dickens on the evening of December 12. It was well attended and rather inter- esting, although very long. Then December 14, the football team was given the annual banquet. The special primaries made favors and they were quite pretty. From all reports, the banquet was a success and the toasts unusually clever. Tom Anderson was elected captain for next season, and he will surely make good. The next night, December 15, the woman’s inter-society was held. There were only -six representatives. The Eulalian representative, Inez Parks, took first place, and the Chresto, Theresa Coffman, took second. Here my memory fails me. for it was near Christmas and every one was busy that we girls didn’t write in our diaries any more that week. Of course you knew that Cora Dilly was one of the typhoid patients. She was sent home February 1, and every one is so glad to have her well again. School opened after Christmas on January 4, and the next night John Kendrick Bangs lectured here. He certainly is good and one of the best numbers we have had on the lecture course. Friday evening, January 5, there wras a concert given in the auditorium for the benefit of the Y. M. C. A. The different members of the, musical faculty played and sang. And the Cecilians sang a double number. The Seniors had a meeting January 10 and asked to have an orator from outside for the commence- ment address. 27 9 m,t)c 1912 Dm «om January 13 was a big day, for it was the date of the Y. W. C. A. carnival, given in the gymnasium. It certainly was a big success and every one had a fine time. On that same evening our basketball team played with Coe at Cedar Rapids. On the afternoon of January 19 the men’s inter-society basketball schedule was opened by the Orio-Philo game. The Philo score isn't recorded. Hut the Orio’s was 44. That evening the final oratorical contest was held, and Carl Erickson was chosen to represent the school in the inter-state contest this spring. On that evening our basketball team played Leander Clark and was defeated 32 to 25. The next night they played Cornell at Mt. Vernon. The next event of any special importance occurred in chapel January 24 when we listened to an appeal from the Old Gold staff. January 26 was also an important date. The mid-winter play, “The Girl from Montana,” was given that evening. It was very well rendered and every one had a hearty laugh. You will see the picture of the cast in the Annual. The next night, January 27, our boys played Iowa University at Iowa City, and were defeated 28 to 8. But we plan to pay them back when the3r play here. February 2 was a full day. Leander Clark played basketball here and we defeated them 16 to 13. In the afternoon there was a preliminary held for a dramatic contest. In the evening Carl Germane the magician, entertained a large audience, and it was very interesting. On this same evening the Eulalians had a sleigh ride, and thru some mistake, when they reached Waterloo, there was no supper waiting for them, as had been planned. On February 3 the Morningside preliminary debate was held. The twenty-fifth anniversary of the Y. W. and Y. M. C. A. was held on February 9, 10, and 11, with the usual course of lectures, concerts and banquet. 280 Sijf 1912 ©15 «oI5 On the afternoon of February 14 the college orchestra gave a recital which was certainly splendid. Friday evening, February 16, there was an athletic benefit given in the auditorium. It was well attended and quite humorous at times. Gracious, it is nearly ten o’clock and I have two exams to study before I seek my downy pillow'. Nowr, Lou, do write whenever you can, for I am just wild to hear about your trip and the grand sights you are seeing. sk me all the questions you want to, and I will do my best to answer them. The weather is something terrible, cold and snowy all the time, so wre do not get out much except for classes. The girls all send their love, and so do I. Penitently, ANN. Cedar Falls. Ia.. Feb. 18, 1912. Sure, Pat, ’tis mesilf that does be sitting down today to write you the news. Tis been a long time since Oi had the pleasure of doing the same, but neverthe- less youlve been kept informed by the girls up to date, so Oi’ve hearn. Sure, Pat, Oi’vc been havin’ the time of my loife here at college, and Oi’ll just give ye a brief outline of the happenings. Come February 16 and our boy- played a whirlwind of a game, but nivertheless Cornell gave us a foine batin' to the tune of 50 to 16. Oi tell ye there was wapin’ and nashin of tath that avnin’. The next thing on the program wras a permanent organization of the class of 1912, which evint took place about February 15. Thinkin’ I inoit have to organize some tonne, Oi bruck into the gatherings, but was invoited to lave. Then Coe knocked us all to smithereens through a basketball game. But glory be to the saints, ’tis the last, and no more batings will be ours. On March 1 we had spaches galore, and some of thim got first, second and third in the declamatory contest. Then on March 5 we had College Eye election, and because of the great organizing ability of mesilf our candidates wfere elected in spoite of the opposition. 28 J QLpe 1912 ©IU «oID There was one candidate for each office. Sure, and to cap the climax, the great labor leader, John Mitchell, told us how he would cut down our work and raise our pay until loife would be only a picnick. His spach took place March 8. Oi’vc been resting ever since, waitin’ for the toime to come when Oi’ll recave me pay for not work in’. March T2 school closed and every one of me professors did themselves proud and gave me 4 in order not to waste any toime. We had a winter picnick March 13. What with trapsin in the snow, crakin’ jokes, and marchin’ home again, wc had a foine time, and Oi’ll never object to another such shindig. The next avnin’, being as how the Y. M. C. A. boys were goin’ off on a spree, Oi thot Oi’d have to go along and take care of them. Sure, and if they are Y. M. C. A. boys, Oi never wish to take care of the rest. March 19 school opens and Oi’m back workin’ for some more fours. Oi already have me toime full for the next six weeks. The A. B. class have a doings March 26. and Oi’m on needles to know how to behave mesilf, and Pat, ye should be here to hear the Minnesingers, April 5, and ’tis mesilf will be in that, dressed in me swallow tail and ht to kill. Then on March 29-30-31, the State Y. M. C. A. convention will mate here and the boys will come from all over, and just think, Pat, to fill in betwane whiles they have a course of fussology in which Oi’m enrolled. Oi tell ye, Pat, take it all in all, Oi wouldn't trade places with the Emperor of China himsilf if Oi had to lave this school. But fearing to make ye jealous Oi’ll close for this toime. Your affectionate brother. MIKE. Ur 282 1912 £DlU«olO Dear Father: Haven’t I been good to write so often and tell you all the news? Do you wonder that it takes so much money? 1 am going to tell you about a few of the events which are to be. Tonight is Friday night and I promised a friend of mine a cutter ride. I can not do that right for less than a V. Monday the 25th, the class, is invited to come to Dr. Seerley’s home to a reception. Everybody dresses their best there. You know I cannot be outdone, so 1 shall do my best also. You ought to sec me in my new dress suit, swell sure. The tailor said he would trust me for the price till summer. Tuesday evening the B. A.’s are in- vited to a dinner; then, too, I must dress up swell. Maybe 1 shall need a car- riage : you know that is the right way for big society. Then a Minnesinger concert on April 5. March 29, 30-31, the state Y. M. C. . confe'.ence meets here and maybe a collection will be held and I must give some also, or the boys will call me a tight wad. So father, be generous and send me a good sized check in your next letter. I will look for it with much interest. Then, too, the big festival in May is something that you must come to. I shall look for you. It is given by the big Thomas Orchestra of Chicago. They give two program- and in the last one the choral society give Faust (you know, Goethe’s Faust set to music by Gounod). The big orchestra plays the accompani- ments. Then there will be some more recitals during the term, and the societies will have their picnics up the river—and, oh, the boat rides in the evenings on the Cedar! That’s the river here. There is a course ticket out for six baseball games and three field meets this term. Will let you know when they are. Sometimes there are some good 283 STbr 1012 flPlU €oIH shows down town and some in Waterloo, and 1 must go so that I can appreciate the good and advise the pupils in high school next year. You know that all takes some time and money, and I am short of both. Then near the end of the term come the band concerts, also the .Morning side debate, May io. We want to beat them. Then the wind-up at the end of the term will be commencement exercises. Then a commencement recital in the evening. Next day the Men’s Literary Societies have their anniversary. On Sunday, Dr. Scerley makes his big speach telling us just what to do in the future and how to live. Then on the next day will he the big concert day, hand, orches- tra, men’s glee clubs and women's glee clubs. Miss Martin is training a squad for a big class play. It is fine, the whole school and town turn out. One day. called commencement day, is when the Seniors receive their diplomas. You ought to see it all. We have learned a lot. Then the alumni business meeting and then the big feed, called here a luncheon, after which 1 come home, tired and worn out, ready for a few' weeks’ rest. Don’t you feel sorry for me? Do write and send me a check. The boys think you are a brick. You know what I think.
