f reientincj. the -Story op a . . . the 1948-49 school year has been chuckfull of memorable events on the campus of the purple panthers. Strange people and unfamiliar surroundings greeted some fifteen hundred freshmen in the fall, while a like number of upperclassmen re- turned to continue work on their diplomas or bachelor's degrees. It will be the seniors who will first realize that some of the happiest times of their lives were spent at the parties, dances, games and dormitory bull sessions this year. It is for these people, the two- and four-year graduates mainly, that this chronological picture-story of the year's highlights is presented. Many things that one wants to remember about college life do not lend themselves to a chronological arrangement. These things, which include organization meetings, classes, and faculty and administration personalities arc such a fundamental part of college life that they fit in anywhere at any time. The Teachers of Tomorrow You guessed it' Placement tests.

E— OCTOBER A golden ''mum” tied with purple ribbon and worn by a pretty co-ed is as typical of fall on the Teachers college campus as the brilliant foliage, eleven huddled men. and the freshmen girls’ green caps. Miss Shirley Carter from Ames, Iowa, stands with wind-blown hair waiting for her date for the Homecoming football game, which was a 33 to 7 victory for the Panthers over the jackrabbits of South Dakota State college. The “cast- ing off of the green was a feature of the homecoming festivities greatly enjoyed by freshmen women. JANUARY Bare branches and brown lawns swept by wintry winds meant a discontinuance of many out-of-doors activities and a return to the books . A dash to the dorm, sliding on the little patches of ice along the dia- gonal walk, or gettin gruesome at the grappling meets was all part of the term which formed the middle of this school year. Parkas, like the one worn by Charles Wolf, freshman student from West Liberty. Iowa, were popular apparel for keeping cars warm. Four girls were chosen at the annual OLD GOLD dance to take their place beside the beauties of the past. MAY To many Teachers College students spring means the nearing of a goal—the final days of work needed to earn a diploma or a bachelor of arts degree. To other students the lengthening days mean spring fever, picnics, baseball on the college diamond, a renewal of the colorful Teachers College relays, and day- dreams of summer vacation. Margaret Harries, senior home economics major from Sutherland. Iowa, poses for the OLD GOLD photographer in the costume she will be wearing when she receives her degree at the spring commencement exercises.
