POLK PRESIDENT Schools build up the store ol knowledge in an orderly fashion and in them skills are developed; it is the hope of the friends of education that the knowledge and skills acquired in schools will surpass in extent and usefulness to society those picked up incidentally elsewhere. Then the people have a right to expect that the beginnings of wisdom may appear in the schools, but they have no right to deplore the results of schooling if wisdom, fullblown, is not evident in the sayings and actions of every graduate. And the further hope of discerning friends of freedom is that understanding may come from wisdom, when the latter has had time to develop through seasoned experience. Skills and limited knowledge and the beginnings of wisdom in the schools, the ripening of wisdom and the fruit of understanding in the school of experience. The theme of this book is well chosen but the realization of personality is elusive; in youth we can look for those characteristics which may with skill, knowledge, wisdom, and understanding constitute a true personality. We should bear in mind that an agreeable personality depends largely, very largely, upon one’s actions in a particular situation,- let the student hold up an ideal and he may, as did Ernest in Hawthorne’s tale, attain his ideal. Here suggested is one of the pre-eminent reasons why the public can afford teachers of superior character, refined personality, and high ideals,- they may serve as examples to their pupils. It is a responsibility not to be lightly undertaken and few can pass the exacting test. 5 • This year our annals encompass the passin9 of two former teachers who sturdily fashioned the old Normal School quite as much, if not more, than did its administration. It is true that Rose C. Swart held an administrative position for many years but that was only incidental, for her influence was felt no matter where she was or what position she held. She knew the school thoroughly, for she had been a member of its faculty since the day its doors opened far back in 1871; she was a trusted adviser of each president in turn,- and she was a calm, judicious counselor of her colleagues. None ever questioned her sincerity, her impartiality, or her fearlessness. One should acknowledge one s debts: so with gratitude I attest my personal obligation for her sound advice and meritorious example. It will be long before the union of such qualities as made this unique personality comes to a fortunate fruition in this College. Walter C. Hewitt had interests which included his fellow men whether in school or out. President Albee chose with prescience, therefore, when he brought Mr. Hewitt to Oshkosh as Institute Conductor, in which capacity he took wisdom, pedagogy, literature, and love of life abundant to the teachers of the state and brought back a high regard and respect for the Normal. Though his assignments were changed many times, so that he had probably taught more subjects than any teacher ever on the faculty, he accepted each cheerfully and brought optimism, consummate skill, and a wide range of knowledge to his classes. He was the liaison between school and public, functioning without obvious propaganda and with the harmonious confidence of both. The life work of these two devoted teachers has been an inspiration to countless persons,- we know that those who receive this QUIVER will have been influenced through the legacy of fine qualities and skills left this school by them, as will generations to come. FORREST R. POLK The President at his desk OSHKOSH NORMAL SCHOOL TOAST We hail thee dear Normal! To thee we raise our song. Our pride, our allegiance, Our faith shall e'er be strong. May time serve thee kindly, The gracious years bring strength, Thy hopes find fulfillment, Thy days fruitful length. Send on, ever onward Thy constant stream of life, To bear forth thy message In ways pf peace or strife. Tho walls shake and crumble. Thy courage ne’er shall fail, Thy hope spring eternal Dear Normal! All hail! Rose C. Swart Hannah M. Cundiff MISS ROSE C. SWART Honored Member of the Faculty From 1871 to 1922. • • To the thousand students, this annual volume is designed as a record of a swiftly moving college year. Few of the thousand had the honor of personal acquaintance with Miss Rose Swart. But the spirit of the school is not the result of one year,- rather its traditions accrue from the hopes, purposes, and achievements of the many who have associated in its being. In this sense, all students of Oshkosh State Teachers College have known Miss Swart. For fifty years, she gave a rare devotion and wisdom to the direction of its teachers. Her passing at her home in Washington in December, 1939, closed a remarkable life. Few persons have lived more usefully; few have been more trusted. Ten years of rural and grade teaching by Miss Swart preceded her coming as primary teacher to the new Normal School at Oshkosh. While during her tenure she held several positions, her major service for thirty-one years was as Director of Training. She was an associate of each of the five presidents of the College, and her life work reflected the history of education in this State. Miss Swart was the first woman to be chosen President of the Wisconsin Teachers Association. In 1906 the University of Wisconsin conferred upon her the honorary degree of Master of Arts. In June, 1929, the Training School Building at Oshkosh was named The Rose Swart Training School. Miss Swart attended the exercises as the quest of honor, and listened, probably with many and varied memories, to the words of dedication: These simple exercises have a great spiritual significance for all of us. We have been given an opportunity to see a great teacher witness her own immortality.” 6 ALMA MATER Dear Alma Mater, Mother of Ours We raise our song to thee,-Thy children stand a loyal band, Though far they scattered be. Dear Alma Mater, Mother of Ours We raise our hearts to thee,-And hold thee close by night or day, In reverent memory. Dear Alma Mater, Mother of Ours, What e'er the years unfold; Keep true our hearts in duty done, Beneath the White and Gold. White for thy light, so pure, so bright; The Gold for thy garnered grain. —W. C. Hewitt MR. WALTER C. HEWITT Mr. Hewitt was a native of Wisconsin, having been born in Milwaukee, May 17,1859. His early life was spent in Michigan. He graduated from Ypsilanti Teachers College in 1882, and in 1902 that college conferred on him the M.A. degree. He was superintendent of several Michigan school systems in his first ten years of teaching and then came to the Oshkosh Normal, where he served for forty-four years. At the Columbian Exposition in Chicago in 1892, Mr. Hewitt was superintendent of the Michigan educational exhibit. It was there that President Albee met him jnd recognized in him the qualities that were needed for the position of Institute Conductor in the Oshkosh Normal. He was by nature and through training an outstanding teacher. As Institute Conductor, he wielded great influence among the teachers of Eastern Wisconsin. His fluency as a speaker, his broad sympathy and understanding of young people, his keen sense of humor, and his wide range of information made him a favorite speaker at all sorts of gatherings. When the position of Institute Conductor was abolished, he continued a heavy program of addressing clubs, societies, conventions, and commencements. His appreciation of the humor to be found in the ordinary relations of life made his lecture on this subject a favorite. Five weeks before his death, he gave this lecture, for the last time, before the Traffic Women s Club of Chicago. He was an author as well as a lecturer and classroom teacher. His book on Humor and another on Civics had wide distribution. For many years, he was active in community affairs, being a Mason, an Elk, a member of the Library Board and a charter member of the Candle Light Club. Students who never knew him in person will remember him through the words of our Alma Mater which he wrote. 7 8 3931103 3H1 FROM THE AIR 9 ENVIRONMENT ADMINISTRATION BUILDING WINTER 11 CHANGE A MAN’S SOCIAL ENVIRONMENT AND ■ «Z?ook to this day, for it is life.

Primary Phoenix The manner in which one single ray of light, one single precious hint, will clarify and energize the whole mental life of him who receives it, is among the most wonderful and heavenly of intellectual phenomena. 44 —ARNOLD BENNETT PERSONALITY INTELLIGENCE. Whether or not a person is intelligent has much to do with the way in which others are affected by him. He may be so deficient in intelligence that his desirable qualities are obscured; they are pushed into the background and never show up. SOCIAL ADJUSTMENT. This is a most important personality variable. Generally speaking, social adjustment involves the ability to get along with people. Obviously, this is not a behavior element which is entirely different from intelligence, since intelligence contributes to social adaptability,- but in order that our analysis be complete, we must stress sociality as a distinct variable. OVERT BEHAVIOR. Another element of personality that we should consider is the individual s overt behavior. Overt behavior is the behavior which others see. The general aspects of one’s observable behavior play an important part into the ideas one creates about himself. PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS. Finally, we have an aspect of personality which has been discussed a good deal and which must be considered as properly part of personality physique, size, strength, health, or beauty. —GASKILL OFFICERS OF SECONDARy DIVISION Richman, Ackerman, Fratzke, Procknow 45 BACHELOR DEGREE GRADUATES WILLIAM ACKERMANN Fond du Lac, Wis.

INSURES RIGHT JUDGMENTS AND RIGHT BEHAVIOR ATHLETICS MEN'S GYMNASIUM WOMEN'S GYMNASIUM IN TRAINING SCHOOL FOOTBALL O. REIBEN TRACK A. LEAMAN BASKETBALL C. DANIELS MEN'S GYMNASIUM ATHLETIC CONTROL Coach Kolf The policy of the athletic department of Oshkosh State Teachers College, under the direction of Miss Barnett and Mr. Kolf, has been to place more emphasis on competition in intramural sports. In this way, it is possible for the majority of students to participate actively in the various athletic divisions. The results of this policy were best displayed in intramural basket-ball, where both men’s and women’s divisions showed an increased participation and large attendance at scheduled contests. Varsity sports include football, basketball, track, tennis, and golf. Competition in these various sports is governed by the rules and regulations of the Wisconsin Teachers College Conference, of which Oshkosh is a member in the Southern Division. In addition to the annual conference schedules, the college teams engage in non-conference games with other colleges and universities in Illinois, Michigan and Wisconsin. The Men’s Association, through the direction of the athletic department, sponsors intramural competition in basketball, kittenball, track, and badminton. Trophies are awarded to champions in basketball and kittenball. The association maintains a men’s room for social purposes where students may indulge in checkers or chess. The Women’s Athletic Association, under the direction of Miss Barnett, provides athletics for college women. This includes the annual intersociety basketball tournament, field hockey, volleyball, baseball, archery, golf, tennis, badminton, shuffleboard, and campfire programs. ATHLETIC COUNCIL Left to Right: Salzmann, Meyer, Hahn, Brenneke, Leitzke, Gatzke QUIVER ke FOOTBALL SEASON 1940 1939 FOOTBALL SEASON Coach Robert Kolf’s announcement in early September of the opening of football drills at Oshkosh State Teachers College was answered by sixty anxious athletes. From the beginning there was considerable doubt as to whether the 1939 Titans could be molded into a unit which would establish a record of impressive triumphs. Many felt that the Oshkosh team lacked a sufficient number of experienced performers and the physical power to be a consistent winner. However, more optimistic followers were hopeful that twelve returning lettermen, and the great number of new candidates could be formed into a grid squad which would be hard to beat. Unfortunately, injuries and hard luck dogged the team throughout the season, and the Titans had to be content with only one victory in six starts. OSHKOSH 0, NORTHERN STATE 6 The Titans journeyed to Marquette, Michigan to open their 1939 football season by meeting Northern State Teachers on the afternoon of Monday, September 28. Play of the two teams was even throughout, and the battle was bitterly contested. For well over three quarters, neither team was able to score. However, in the closing three minutes the Northerners registered the game’s lone marker after recovering an Oshkosh fumble deep in the latter’s territory. The game was slowed up by frequent fumbling on both sides. Top Row: Coach Kolf, Rieben, Hahn, Schettl, Kornowske, Midthun, Specht, Wilson, Embertson, Miller, Eagon, Stamborski, Mqr.

OSHKOSH 3 NORTHLAND COLLEGE 0 Showing considerable improvement over their previous performance, Oshkosh scored its first win by handing Northland College of Ashland, Wisconsin a 3 to 0 setback. The Titans completely outplayed the Northland squad and made fourteen first downs to their opponents’ three, but lacked the necessary punch when in scoring position. On three occasions Oshkosh failed to score after advancing the ball within ten yards of the goal. Glenn Lambert, freshman back, played a hero’s role when he kicked a perfect field goal into a stiff wind in the final stanza to account for the Oshkosh score. The win was costly for the Titans, however, for Oscar Rieben, senior fullback, was lost to the squad for an indefinite period as the result of a broken jaw bone. OSHKOSH 7, STEVENS POINT 17 The usually hard-fought Oshkosh-Stevens Point football series was renewed Saturday afternoon, October 7, when the two elevens met on the Oshkosh High School athletic field in the Titans' Homecoming game. Realizing that a thrilling battle was in store, an enthusiastic crowd turned out to see the gruelling conflict. With Ed Kiddie and Frank Kloiber setting the pace, the Titans came from behind to lead 7 to 3 at the end of the third quarter. The heavier Stevens Point team, possessing broader experience and tremendous reserve strength, wore down the Titans in the fourth quarter and twice crossed the Oshkosh goal. Pos-luszny, plunging back, scored both of the visitors’ touchdowns. 98 Gatzke Hahn Root Kornowske Kiddie GRIDIRON . . . OSHKOSH 0, PLATTEVILLE 38 Weakened immensely by injuries, the Oshkosh Teachers set out for Platteville the followins Saturday to receive one of the worst beatings ever handed a local grid squad. The powerful Pioneers, headed by rugged ‘ Butch’' Perkins, had far too much strength for the invading eleven. Platteville, equally stronger on pass offense, crossed the Oshkosh goal on six different occasions and completely outclassed the lighter Titans. In spite of the odds, Oshkosh performed creditably by displaying staunch resistance up to the final whistle. OSHKOSH 7, MILWAUKEE 14 Rising to heights few thought they were capable of, the Titans turned in their out- 99 standing performance of the entire 1939 grid campaign at Milwaukee, on November 4, when they forced the undefeated Green Gulls, defending conference champions, to be satisfied with a close 14 to 7 decision. Performing brilliantly on defense, the locals battled desperately, and held the high-powered Milwaukee machine in check throughout most of the furious battle. So even was the play of the two elevens that the first half ended in a scoreless deadlock. The Titans, trailing by two touchdowns in the final period, put on a scoring drive of their own which brought them within one touchdown of the conference champions. The Oshkosh score was the result of a long, accurate pass from Kiddie to Dick Ratzburg. Lambert kicked the extra point. QUIVER FOOTBALL Sphatt Schettl Ratzburg Meyer Eagon Dickman Midthun Clark QUIVER OSHKOSH 0, WHITEWATER 6. The curtain was drawn on football activities at Oshkosh on Saturday, November 11, when the Titans terminated the season by dropping a close 6 to 0 decision to the Whitewater Quakers. From start to finish the contest was interestingly and doggedly fought. The teams were evenly matched with the visitors winning because they were able to take advantage of their single scoring opportunity. Oshkosh, on the other hand, was unable to cross the opponent's goal when in scoring territory. The winning touchdown was tallied in the second quarter when Al Farina, versatile Quaker quarterback, dashed twenty yards around end to cross the goal line. The home squad threatened seriously in the closing minutes of the final period when Glenn Lambert returned a Whitewater punt deep into the visitors’ territory. The splendid scoring opportunity was wasted, however, when two line plays and two short passes were unsuccessful. SUMMARY In the opening contest of a six-game schedule, the Titans were nosed out by a count of 6 to 0 by Northern State Teachers of Marquette, Michigan. The game was even throughout, but a Titan fumble in the closing minutes deprived Oshkosh of at least a scoreless tie. The Titans turned in an impressive exhibition the next week when they outscored Northland College of Ashland 3 to 0. Glenn Lambert’s field goal was the only too score of the game. Oshkosh completely outplayed the home team and counted fourteen first downs. In the annual homecoming game, the Oshkosh gridders lost to Stevens Point 17 to 7. Fighting desperately before a large crowd, the Titans put up a furious battle but could not match the heavy Point team in reserve strength. Kiddie scored for Oshkosh in the third quarter. The powerful Platteville Pioneers completely outclassed Oshkosh 38 to 0. Perkins, husky fullback, led the attack as the southerners crossed the Oshkosh goal six times. Performing in a very commendable manner, Coach Keif's eleven displayed a never-say-die” spirit as they fought the Milwaukee Teachers’ undefeated Green Gulls to a 14 to 7 score. The Titans held the Milwaukeeans even-up in the first half but lacked the reserve power to withstand a second half assault. Ratzburg snared a pass from Kiddie to tally the Oshkosh touchdown. In this game Oscar Rieben returned to the lineup for the first time since his injury. Led by Farina, Whitewater Teachers defeated the Titans in the season finale by a margin of one touchdown. Oshkosh lacked scoring punch when close to the invaders’ goal line. A final scoring opportunity was muffed in the fourth quarter. The Whitewater game closed the college football careers of seven valuable performers. They include: Miller, center,- Gatzke, guard; Embertson and Specht, tackles,-Arseneau, Kloiber, and Rieben, backs. At the end of the season, Oscar Rieben, fullback from Omro, was selected honorary team captain. Rudy Miller, Manawa, was chosen as center, and Bob Arseneau, Washburn, received honorable mention in the annual All-Conference selections. Stange Emerich Batterman Smith and Schabo Kile Chvala Stamborski Kropidlowski and Leitzke 101 1940 1940 7-fe BASKETBALL A group of some thirty candidates, including seven lettermen, reported to Coach Kolf for the approaching cage season. Daniels, Leaman, Richlen, Rosin, Spear, and Stamborski were holdovers from the championship squad of 1938-39. Lawrence Winkler, an All-Conference selection of two years ago, was the other letterman. A week of practice produced several prospects among the freshmen and new members of the squad. Gottschalk, Farrell, Lietz, Meyer, Sacharski, and Stange were outstanding. Champ Seibold was added to the roster at the end of the first semester after several members were lost to the squad. A B” team was maintained throughout the early season so as to develop all prospective material. The opening game found the Titans using their height and speed to trounce the Sheffords of Green Bay 41 to 29. The locals outsped the Bay team throughout the game. A six-point lead at the half widened as the collegians poured on the heat right up to the final minute. Bud” Spear dunked six buckets to pace the Oshkosh scoring. All members of the squad were given at least a few minutes under fire, and several newcomers showed up well. The Elm Tree Bakers of Appleton, a semi-pro team and always a strong opponent, provided the competition in the second tilt of the season. The Bakers played as spiritedly as any college team, only losing by a two-point margin, 31 to 29. Speed and drive again were the winning factors for the Titans. Spear continued his high scoring tactics in leading the Oshkosh cagers with 2 baskets and 6 free throws. Daniels Rosin Winkler Meyer Richlen Seibold SEASON A scheduled game with Stout Institute of Menomonee for December 6 at Oshkosh was cancelled. Immediately before the Christmas vacation the squad took a two-day trip, and on successive nights encountered River Falls and Eau Claire Teachers Colleges of the northern division of the conference. The Falcons of River Falls led by Kroger and Nelson eked out a 42 38 victory on the first night. After a slow start the Titans managed to grasp a single point lead, and just before the end of the first half sank two quick baskets to widen the margin to 24 to 19. The opening whistle in the second period found River Falls rallying to snatch the lead which they succeeded in maintaining up to the final whistle, in spite of a last-minute Oshkosh rally. The scoring was well divided with Spear and Daniels leading with 11 and 8 points respectively. On the following night a large, impartial crowd saw the Eau Claire Teachers down Oshkosh 43 to 38. High school coaches and their players who were present as guests of the college, augmented an already large attendance. Ki” Daniels and Bud” Spear were the only Titans who were able to hit the hoop with any consistency. They scored thirty-six of the Oshkosh total, each tallying 18. The squad had three practice sessions before making the annual Christmas holidays trip to Southern Illinois. A contest with the Gallagher Business School at Kankakee, which was the first of a two-game schedule, was cancelled after the squad had arrived at the Illinois city. Leaman Lietz Stamborski Sacharjki Stange Spear AGAINST THE BACKBOARD! At Bloomington on the following night, the Titans, disappointed with the previous night’s cancellation and also jittery from the long hours of inactivity, fumbled their way to a defeat at the hands of Illinois Normal University, 38 to 36. Numerous fumbles and ragged passing allowed the southerners to build up a commanding 24 to 12 lead at the half. In the second period Oshkosh began to click against the Illinois substitutes and narrowed the gap to 38 30. The last moments of the game saw a des-perate Titan rally cut short at 38 to 36. Scott, colored sharpshooter, led the Illinois scoring with the brilliant exhibition of sinking five baskets in seven tries at the net. Daniels, Stange, and Spear showed well for the losers. A tired, lifeless Pioneer cage team from Plattevilie lost to the Titans in the first conference tilt of the season. The down-staters, who had been able to manage only one practice session after the holiday vacation, were no match for the locals. Oshkosh scored at will, and the final result displayed an overwhelming 53 27 margin. Ed Rosin counted 12 points while Spear and Daniels followed with 11 apiece. The squad opposed the Whitewater Teachers at the Quaker gym in the first conference game away from home. Chich Agnew’s squad snatched the lead at the outset of the game and ten gift shots in the first half helped the home team to pile up a 30 to 16 edge. Immediately after the rest period, Oshkosh came to life and scored ten points to none for the opponents. This narrowed the lead to 30-26. The Titans, encountering a run of tough luck on a few shots which rolled in and out again, refused to backwater, and came within a few points of tying the score. Daniels and Winkler were ejected from the game on four personals in the latter part of the final period, and the tide changed in behalf of the Quakers. They rallied in the closing minutes and posted a 49 to 39 victory. Spear threw his pet one-hander from all sections of the court and counted twenty of the Titan points. A highly-touted Milwaukee Teachers College five, whose appearance had been eagerly awaited by the fans, was the second conference opponent on the home floor. The tall, shifty Milwaukeeans used their height and fast break to extreme advantage and never relinquished a lead which they secured some few minutes after the opening whistle. George Jablonski, 6 ft. 6 in., center, was responsible for the Titan defeat. The lanky opponent netted five pot shots at very opportune moments during the game. The locals outscored the Green Gulls in the second period, but the wide half-time margin was far too great to overcome. Scoring was evenly divided among the local cagers with Rosin, Stange, Winkler, Spear, and Daniels leading the way. What was expected to be a typical Oshkosh-Stevens Point battle resulted in a rout as the Points decisively set back the Titans, 41 to 30, on the Jacobs High School court at the Point. Oshkosh’s hopes of another championship faded as the Pointers completely dominated the contest throughout the two periods. The final five minutes of play consumed fifteen minutes of actual time as the substitutes of both teams fouled QUIVER 104 1940 each other without reserve. Pete Terzynski led all scorers with a total of 17 points. Daniels was the only consistent Oshkosh scorer with four buckets and six gift shots. Mid-semester exams afforded the cagers an opportunity for a week’s rest, after which they returned to winning form with their second victory of the season over Platte-ville Teachers, 43 to 40. The Titans again encountered their first-half jinx as the Pioneers tallied 11 free throws to aid them in establishing a 27 to 16 lead at half-time. However, again thedeterminedTitansstaged a second-half rally with Spear, Daniels, and Seibold leading the attack. And this time the Titans were not to be denied as Spear scored successive baskets and Seibold and Daniels clinched the victory with a basket apiece. Daniels with fifteen and Spear with ten led the Oshkosh scoring. Coach Kolf had the cage squad primed for the encounter at The Baker Field House in Milwaukee. The Titans, jumping to an early lead, forced the score to 12 8. The Gulls took over at this point and by their height were successful in maintaining a safe lead. Half-time score favored Milwaukee 35 to 27. Close officiating had forced Daniels, Seibold, and Winkler from the game in the first half, but the Oshkosh substitutes aided the remaining regulars in narrowing the margin between the two teams. The final whistle stamped out a closing Oshkosh rally. The score was 59 to 53. Five Titan cagers and one Milwaukeean were ejected from the game on four personals. Oshkosh outscored Milwaukee in field goals, but the Gulls successfully counted twenty-five free throws to turn the tide of victory their way. Spear again led the scoring, totaling 19 points on 7 goals and 5 gift shots. This defeat definitely eliminated the Titans as contenders for the championship. Left to Right: Lehman, Stange, Stamborski, lietz, Richlen, Daniels, Seibold, Sacharski, Rosin, Winkler, Spear, Meyer 105 BASKETBALL The final conference games of the season, which were home tilts against Stevens Point and Whitewater, discovered the Titans in their best form of the season. The Oshkosh sharpshooters were not to be denied at any moment in either game. Daniels, Rosin, Spear, and Winkler led the offensive while Leaman displayed his skill as a defensive player in holding Terzynski of the Pointers to two field goals and Farina of the Quakers to a lone bucket. On Thursday, February 22, Oshkosh began its steamrolling tactics and did not stop until the following Tuesday as the final gun of the White-water game lowered the curtain on the 1939-40 season. In the Point encounter, Eddie Kotal’s cagers never did find themselves, and Oshkosh held a decisive 28 to 16 lead at the half. The second period allowed the locals to widen the margin to 39-23. At this point the black-jerseyed opponents found new life against Oshkosh substitutes, but the Point rally fell short. The victory was far more decisive than the final 39-35 score might indicate. The highest league total for a single game was established in the final tilt of the season with Whitewater as the opponent. The hapless Quakers were left behind immediately after the initial whistle and were never quite in the ball game. Bud” Spear closed the season with an amazing exhibition of tireless speed and uncanny scoring ability. He amassed a total of twenty-three points on nine field goals and five charity shots. Ki” Daniels climaxed four years of competition with his usual steady and well played performance. Lawrence Winkler and Ed Rosin were other seniors who had made their final appearance in a Titan uniform. Daniels and Spear merited positions on the All-Conference Five. The coaches selected Ki for the center post and ’Bud” as one of the forwards. Winkler received honorable mention. The lettermen unanimously elected Daniels as honorary captain for the season. Sullivan and Leaman TRACK Among the eight returning lettermen for the 1939 track season, Arnold Leaman and Mel Grancorbitz were first place winners in the 1938 state meet. John Sullivan, Clarence Daniels, and Harvey Hanson were other point winners. The return of Eric Becker was a strengthening factor in the middle distance runs, as Eric had placed in the 440 at the 1936 and 1937 state meets. Other returning lettermen were Karl Fenrich and Levi Richlen. In the intersociety track meet which precedes the regular schedule, Periclean dominated the field with fifty-seven and one-half points. Their closest rival for top honors was Lyceum scoring twenty-three and one-half points, while the Independents were third with seventeen. ON TRACK AND FIELD Grancorbitz, Periclean, was individual high scorer with fifteen points. He placed first in three events: the 100-yard dash, high jump, and broad jump. Arnold Leaman, Periclean, broke the mile and two-mile records, covering the mile in 4:39.8 and the two-mile run in 10:19. Becker, also of Periclean society, discarded the old 880 record with a 2:08.2 run. On May 6 the Titans engaged Whitewater Teachers in the first dual meet of the season at Whitewater. The Quakers surpassed Oshkosh in the runs and chalked up a 76 to 55 victory. Leaman was a double winner, placing first in the mile and two-mile runs. He broke the White-water track record for the mile, running that event in 4:42.6. Hanson also was a double winner, placing first in the shot and discus events. The Milwaukee Teachers College Reserves were handed a defeat in a dual meet at Oshkosh a week later. Mel Grancorbitz tallied ten points for the locals with firsts in the 100-yard dash and broad jump. Becker copped the 880 and finished second in the mile. One of the highlights of the meet saw Sullivan and Leaman running a dead heat in the two-mile run. The final score was Oshkosh seventy-eight and one-half and Milwaukee fifty-one and one-half. North Central of Illinois, Whitewater, Milwaukee, and Oshkosh competed in a quadrangular meet at Milwaukee. Sullivan and Hanson won the two-mile and discus respectively. Leaman ran second in the mile while Levi Richlen placed second in the high hurdles, and Spear in the 100-yard dash. Fenrich in the 220 placed fourth. The final results tallied 63 points for the Milwaukeeans, the highest total in the meet. North Central scored 54, and Whitewater placed third with 27. Oshkosh tallied 21 points. Marquette University stadium was the scene of the state meet on May 27. The outstanding event of the meet from the Oshkosh point of view was the running of John Sullivan and Arnie Leaman in the long distance events. Sullivan clinched the two-mile in 10:06.2 and Leaman won the mile event with a 4:33.4 run. Harvey Hanson outshone the discus throwers with a heave of 132 feet 3.6 inches. Other point winners for Oshkosh were Buchholz, Becker, Fenrich, Howman, Meyer, and Richlen. The Titans with twenty-three and one-half points repeated their performances of the past two years by finishing fourth. For the second consecutive year Arnold Leaman was elected honorary captain. Top Row: Miller, Hanson, Richlen, Daniels, Derr, Sullivan Bottom Row: Shirtz, Mgr., Meyer, Spear, Leaman, Buchholz, Fenrich, Nichols, Mgr. 107 QUIVER GOLF AND TENNIS 1939 GOLF The Titans played a short schedule with a total of two matches; one at Whitewater and the other at Oshkosh, with Whitewater and Milwaukee as opponents on the same aiternoon. In the first meet a strong Whitewater team, state champions at a later date, whitewashed the Titan foursome 12 to 0. On May 13 the Oshkosh team met both Whitewater and Milwaukee on the Oshkosh municipal course, but the downstaters did not compare scores to make it a triangular match. The locals did not play two sets of eighteen holes but compared their one set of scores with those of both of the invaders. The results were Milwaukee eight, Oshkosh four,- and Whitewater ten and one-half, Oshkosh one and one-half. The Oshkosh golfers did not participate in the state meet at Eau Claire. Victor Fritz, Earl Hutchinson, Donald Liesch, and Roman Stam-borski received minor letter awards. 1939 TENNIS A record of four victories in five dual matches and a tie with Milwaukee in the state meet established the supremacy of the Titan tennis team in southern conference competition. The Titans travelled to Whitewater for the opener, and won over the Quakers 6 to 1. In the second dual match, on the Oshkosh courts, a strong Milwaukee team edged out the locals 4 to 3. Oshkosh returned to winning form a week later, defeating the Lawrence College Vikings 4 to 3. In a return match with Whitewater, the Titans defeated the Quakers by the identical score of 6 to 1. In the final match before the state meet, the Oshkosh netters defeated Milwaukee 4 to 3. The Green Gulls had, heretofore, held a record of 36 consecutive victories in college competition. Oshkosh swept the doubles to post the 4 to 3 score and a defeat for the downstate school. The racqueteers gained a tie with Milwaukee in the state meet held at Eau Claire. Harra and Brand defeated Milwaukee’s Damuth and Kempke 6 4, 5 7, 6 4, 6-4 to win the doubles championship while Bob Negedank lost to Dick Geske of Milwaukee 6-2, 6-3, and 7-5 in the finals for the singles championship. Previous to these events Harra and Brand had defeated the Stout entries 6-2, 7 5 in the first round and drawn a bye in the second. Negedank drew a bye in the first round, defeated Hub of Stout in the second round 6-1, 6-0 and eliminated Miller of Stevens Point 6 1, 6-3 in the semi-finals. The other Oshkosh singles entry, Dick Lemberg, lost in the first round to Miller of Eau Claire 3-6, 6-2, and 3 6. Lemberg, Negedank, Harra, Brand 1940 BASKETBALL TOURNAMENT A record of eleven quintets, an increase of five over last year, in the inter-society basketball tournament denotes the high level of interest attained by intramural basketball in the year 1930. The tournament was conducted as a double elimination affair in which a team had to lose two games before it was eliminated from further play. The group of entries was divided into “A” and B sections. The winner and loser of only one game in each section was advanced to the finals. The four finalists played a single elimination series for the championship. Entries in the tournament were: Philakean A,” Philakean B,” lota Wildcats, Lyceum No. 1, Lyceum No. 2, Periclean Demons, Peri-clean Shotzies, Periclean No. 3, Independent No. 1, Independent No. 2, and the Independent Doodlebugs. Periclean society dominated the tournament as its three entries reached the finals. Independent No. 2 was the fourth finalist. The Demons of A” section and Independent No. 2 of the B” section were the winners in their respective divisions. Periclean No. 3 was the other A” section finalist while the Shotzies lost only one in the B” section. First round scores in the finals resulted in the elimination of the Periclean No. 3 and the Shotzies. The next evening the Demons forced back the championship bid of the Independents with a decisive 28 to 20 win. Periclean No. 3 won out in a close contest with the Shotzies. The champions set down five opponents in their successful bid for the title. They were: Lyceum No. 2, Periclean No. 3, lota Wildcats, Shotzies, and finally the Independents. Members of the squad were: John Buchholz, Robert Buchholz, Robert James, Dave Mathis, John Plier, Dick Ratzburg, Russ Rothenbach, and Al Schettl.

Ill QUIVER GIRLS' QUIVER Alpha Chi is 1940’s winner of the intersociety basketball trophy presented by W.A.A. Because Gamma Sig is in permanent possession of the old cup, a new trophy was awarded a handsome bronze statuette which for weeks beforehand stood on the library desk coaxing out all the teams’ fighting spirit, and which, incidentally, Gamma Sig was anxious to capture. Alpha Chi also was intent on victory, first, because they had been edged out by a small margin in the final championship game last year, and second, because all but two of their players are graduating. The captains of the teams met and drew to determine in what order the teams would play their first set of games. Kappa Gamma and Lambda Chi played the first game with Kappa Gamma, winning by a score of 29 to 23. Gamma Sig won their first game from the Aletheans with a score of GAMMA SIGMA ALETHEAN 38 to 19. Delta Phi lost to W.A.A. with the close score of 16 to 15 and the Alpha Chi’s took Phoenix 41 to 11. Each team must lose two games before it is dropped from the tournament. The Alpha Chi’s, after dropping one game to Gamma Sig, were able to gain a decisive victory in the finals with a score of 36 to 29. Marie Jungwirth played outstanding games by managing to slip around her opponents and put in hook shots that looked like varsity calibre. Marie was high point player in the tournament, closely followed by last year’s top girl eager, Janet Johnson. Third and fourth places went to Jean Wogsland and Doris Leitzke of Gamma Sig. Members of the Alpha Chi team were Marion Brown, captain; Yvonne Bartell, LaVerne Duquaine, Eugenia Hayes, Janet Johnson, Marie Jungwirth, Vera Lewellyn, and Adeline Winkler. PHOENIX LAMBDA CHI BASKETBALL Four years 490, under the supervision of Miss Barnett, Alpha Chi entered a team in the tournament for the first time. Although they had difficulty getting enough players to make up a squad and then made very little showing, they have gradually worked themselves up to the position of the strongest women s team on the campus with an outstanding record. At a dinner given in their honor by W.A.A., each player was awarded a gold basketball and a chain. Kappa Gamma and Phoenix vied for third place, with Kappa Gamma victorious by a score of 22 to 21 in an exciting overtime game. W.A.A., Lambda Chi, Delta Phi, and Alethean were automatically eliminated after each had lost two games. Encouragement may be offered some girls who have not known their society to win honors, by citing the victories of the past eight years. W.A.A. organized the intersociety tournament in 1932 with games played either during February or March. Winners up to the present have been: 1932, W.A.A. (these are Independents); 1933, W.A.A.; 1934, Phoenix,-1935, Delta Phi; 1936, Alethean; 1937, 1938, and 1939, Gamma Sig; and 1940, Alpha Chi. Investigating further, we find that our intersociety tournaments came into being by the formation of W.A.A. in 1919, when it was organized with a constitution very similar to that followed at the University of Wisconsin. Each society elects a team captain. They are: Alethean, Katherine Mullen,- Alpha Chi, Marion Brown,- Delta Phi, Clarabelle Kropid-lowski; Gamma Sig, June Wihsmann,- Kappa Gamma, Louise Bytell,- Lambda Chi, Harriet Wilson,- Phoenix, Barbara Brand; and W.A.A., Louise Nation. The referees who donated their services to the tournament include Mrs. Viola Tomkins and the Misses Janette Seabald, Mary Rigney, and Audrey Ginke of Oshkosh and Mary Andrew and Jessie Dunken of Fond du Lac. ALPHA CHI KAPPA GAMMA DELTA PHI W.A.A. 1940 113 1940 W.A.A. SPORTS Major sports sponsored by W.A.A. this year included hockey, soccer, and basketball, while ping-pong, archery, tennis, badminton and field hockey supplemented these activities. From the beginning of school in September until late October, when the weather becomes forbidding, hockey sticks are wielded enthusiastically. This year, the season was short because of the rainy weather, and consequently the group began playing soccer earlier than usual. During the winter, until late April when archery appears, indoor sports are much in evidence. Among these are shuffleboard, ping-pong, golf practice, and basketball. Because many students expressed an interest in tap dancing, a bi-weekly class was formed. The group mastered many intricate steps, including the tricky Spanish waltz-clog. Ping-pong occupied the spotlight during the entire schoof year, since girls were constantly training for the tournament which is held during the second semester. Most of those who participate in W.A.A. activities are intent on receiving awards, either the first-year official school letter, or the second-year silver bar pin. Girls working for second-year awards must plan and lead hikes to such destinations as Omro, Ripon, and North Park in Oshkosh. On these hikes the girls prepare outdoor meals which have been planned beforehand by the second-year award aspirant. Jean Sell and Elizabeth Spoor have been active in such leadership. Late in October, W.A.A. members held their annual outing at the Campfire Camp, Hiwela, near Waupaca. In the middle of April an all-day outing was held at the geologically interesting Kettle Moraine State Park. Dr. Price, Miss Stewart, and Miss Barnett represented the faculty on this excursion. W.A.A. sponsored the all-women's field day which is held each year at the Menominee Park. Intersociety competition was keen with seven competitive activities operating at one time. There were archery and volleyball tournaments, relay races, and baseball throwing contests. The point system determined the winner. All-around athletes at the event were the Alpha Chi’s who captured the trophy. BASKETBALL VOLlEYBALL ARCHERY GYMNASTICS W.A.A. OUTING SHUFFLEBOARD THE W. A. A. It is the belief of W.A.A. that the real purpose of a woman's athletic program is to provide activities in which all the women can participate for their own pleasure, rather than to develop only the few, who are very skilled, to represent the group. W.A.A. hopes to interest every woman on the campus with its program by offering a variety of sports adapted to the individual interest and abilities. Because of the association s popularity, many girls participate on W.A.A. nights, Tuesdays and Wednesdays, from three-forty-five until five. The organization holds supper meetings the first Tuesday of each month. Meals are prepared cooperatively in the school cafeteria. On April twenty-second, the fourth annual W.A.A. banquet was held to which were invited the first of a series of faculty guests, and representatives of each society in school, that they might become better informed as to the activities and purposes of W.A.A. This is to be a precedent for future banquets. A new program for next year was favorably received. Its purpose is to offer students the opportunity to receive the equivalent of an athletics minor, though without the actual college credit. Regular class instruction will be given by Miss Barnett in order that girls may be capable of coaching gymnastics. Another plan was also revealed that of the establishment of a Youth Hostel station in Oshkosh. The girls have been seriously thinking of pushing the project that there might be a non-stop line of Youth Hostels from Marinette to Chicago. First Semester President ....

As always, The ADVANCE aimed to be an orsan of information, to provide an outlet for writins and expression, to aid in creating a wholesome spirit, to support the best traditions of the college, to promote scholarship, to encourage and support worthy collegiate activities, and to record the contemporary history of O.S.T.C. in permanent form. Through criticism and commendation Editor Tanty and his associates, Paul Lem and Evelyn Streckenbach, strove to put each issue on the level of the First Class Honor rating, the highest honor ever received by The ADVANCE, earned in 1938 1939 under Clarence Gorchels. For the second year Arthur Shirtz was business manager. Regular feature columns were written by Clarence Gorchels, former editor, and John P. Kelly. That popular column The Irritator was again under the direction of James Kimball. A board, known as the executive board, composed of William Mortell, Helen Hogue, Harriet Talbot, Elmer Schabo, and Marjorie Page, assisted Editor Tanty and his associates in their work. Literary supplements were included in two issues. A two-page insert was published during each semester with Beatrice Gehrung and Robert Gorchels editing the supplement. Editorially The ADVANCE tried to boost school spirit, condemned defeatism at football games, discussed the European situation, praised the Red Cross drive, gave support to the Student Council, asked for more quiet, please in the halls, supported the Men’s Association in its drive for order in the men’s lounge, polled the assemblies and aired opinions on the student government in the column, I Think.” Each issue, criticized or praised, is always represented by the best combined efforts of the staff.

By glancing through these previous books, present-day students may find a pictorial account of all phases and events of school life. As the days pass by, one becomes aware of the development of personality growing out of the relationships among college students. The QUIVER Staff has therefore chosen this vital characteristic of college life as the theme of the present issue of the QUIVER. The divisions of the book which follow the presentations of faculty and students represent phases of college life which influence and reveal traits of personality. These are organizations, athletics, activities. Again this year the QUIVER includes as many pictures as possible, instituting at the same time the use of concise tabulated form in records of organizations. The members of the QUIVER staff hope the picture of the current year will prove interesting and memorable to you in days to come. 122 EDITOR-IN-CHIEF, Wilhelmina Schafer.

When tryouts were called in the fall, eighty musicians responded. Although only sixty-five uniforms could be issued, seventy members hopefully attended rehearsals. The biggest event of the year was the purchase of the colorful gray and maroon uniforms. In addition, the organization acquired a much needed set of tympany and a group of three flags, for use in parades. With its brilliant playing and new uniforms, the band made a tremendous hit at all its public appearances.

Three appearances were made before the student body of the college. In December they sang several selections from Handel’s ‘Messiah.” Shortly before Easter vacation Rossini’s Stabat Mater was sung to orchestral accompaniment, with Miss Jane Laubenheimer of Milwaukee as featured soloist. In April, the choir gave a short concert of sacred and secular numbers. On their two-day tour in the spring the group spent one day in Chicago, sang over station WLS, and heard the Chicago Symphony. The following day they made appearances at high schools in South Milwaukee, Mayville and Horicon. 126 FOOTLIGHTS AND PLAYERS FIRST LADY More goofy than the government, more satiric than a senator, more comic than a congressman” is a condensed description of 'First Lady,” the play which was so well presented by a large cast of student actors at the Little Theatre, March 11 and 12. With action centered about the life of a secretary of state, the play showed the intrigues and ballyhoo which finally resulted in the secretary’s being chosen as presidential nominee.

KAPPA GAMMA PLAY CONTEST This year the Kappa Gamma play trophy was awarded to Philakean society, for a presentation The Inn of Return.” Those participating were James Awe, Robert Whitely, William Krueger, Karl Kolb, Robert MacConnell, and Leonard Wright. Periclean, with their outstanding performance of Four Who Were Blind,” won second honors. Bateman Keefe directed, and the cast included Lawrence Herzog, Arthur Shirtz, Robert Berndt, Allan Greunison, and Herbert Gruenwald. Phoenix, with “Green Eyes from Romany,” took third place. The cast of characters was Sylvia Gould, Doris Davies, Jean Mortenson, Kathryn Miller, Mary Louise Geisse, Loraine Orgeman, Mary Sensiba, Miriam Johnston, with Lorraine Kuehn directing. 129 1940 1940 HOMECOMING Weeks before the gala event the whole college was Homecoming conscious. Both the student and the faculty committees worked diligently to make the 1939 affair better than all previous ones. Mr. R. J. Grant, faculty Homecoming chairman, was assisted by faculty members: Miss Cecille J. Barnett, Mr. J. A. Breese, Dr. Burton E. Karges, Dr. Florence Case, and Mr. R. J. McMahon. Student committee chairmen were Jean Wogsland and Arthur Shirtz. Gay gold and white streamers, society placards, and welcome signs decorated the corridors of the main building in a most attractive manner. Grads coming back were really made to feel that they were coming home. Led by a police escort and the college band in new uniforms of snappy maroon and gray, the parade swung through the business section where several thousand spectators had gathered to watch. Alethean, girls' society, again took first place with its float representing a silver dollar bearing the inscription “In Titans We Trust. Second place was won by Phoenix, another girls’ society, featuring a white toboggan with a victory sign, “Send Oshkosh to the Top. Delta Phi’s presentation of a spider which had caught a victim, Stevens Point, in its web took third. The slogan was “Titan the Web. lota Alpha Sigma, which is celebrating its silver jubilee this year, was given fourth place for its silver-painted figures of football players kicking a football for a “Point. Honorable mention was awarded 130 MUD BATTLE to Lambda Chi and Lyceum. Lambda Chi’s float represented graduates of the school in five-year periods since the first graduating class in 1875 down to the present. On an elevation was ‘1939’’ holding a big pencil representing The Pointers.” Lyceum's float carried a tall upright cardboard. On each side was a large pencil writing the words, Break the Point,” and with the point of the pencil broken just as it wrote the final t.” This year’s competition between floats was so keen that the judges found it a difficult task to determine the winners. After the parade the student body rallied 'round the team at the all-campus pep meeting,- and amid excitement and anticipation speeches were made, stories retold, and prizes awarded to the three winners of the annual house decorations contest. This annual event was won by the House of Richards the theme of which was I, Oshkosh, Take Thee, Stevens Point.” Second place was taken by the House of Weileps with their conception of Stevens Point Before and After.” Third place was captured by the Tarr Manor boys who anticipated that the Titans would find conquering the Pointers Like Taking Candy from a Baby. The events of Friday evening were closed with the singing of three 131 QUIVER FRESHMAN VICTORY school songs led by Mr. J. A. Breese, musical director of the college: Hail Titans “On, O Oshkosh,” and “Alma Mater.” The Freshmen demonstrated their physical prowess when they inflicted a very muddy defeat upon the Sophomores in the annual mud battle. The Frosh also emerged victorious from the tug-o-war. Though the Freshman boys earned the “brown jug,“ presentation of the award was postponed until the much coveted prize could be found. This year old man weather didn’t dampen the enthusiasm of the spirited crowd at the big game. Clad in its uniforms of striking color, the band played and maneuvered at the gridiron game on Saturday. Unfortunately, however, the Titans suffered defeat at the hands of the Pointers to the tune of 17 to 7. A field goal early in the game gave the Point a 3 0 lead, which they held till the half. In the third quarter Oshkosh set out to trample the Pointers and took the lead, 7 3. Snarling vengeance, the Pointers broke up the Titans’ defense and rolled over the Gold and White for two more touchdowns before the end of the game. The society dinner parties that preceded the dance were more colorful and attractive than any in recent years. At each there was some clever decorative theme and talks by actives, pledges, and alumni members. A gala climax to the successful Homecoming weekend was the informal dance held Saturday evening, October 7, at the Eagles Ballroom. Four-hundred couples—students, alums, and faculty members danced to the sweet strains of Wally Beau’s music. QUIVER 132 1940 THE BAND UNIFORMS Oshkosh is especially proud of its band this year not only because its sixty-four participants comprise the latest in the history of the school but also because it is smartly clad in uniforms of maroon and gray. The public got its first glimpse of these new uniforms of flashing colors, when the organization made its bow to the general public in the annual Homecoming parade. A color guard of three was provided for each public appearance. Elmer Schabo, drum major, and Clarabelle Kropidlowski and Marie Diestler, baton twirlers, were appropriately outfitted in tight-fitting coats and trousers of white and gold, the school colors. Saucy white plumes atop their tall caps completed the outfits. THE SONG FEST Six societies participated in lota Alpha Sigma’s first Song Fest. This is to be an annual event, with a beautiful lyre-shaped silver trophy to be awarded to the winner of first place. Permanent possession of the trophy will be earned by three successive victories. This year the event held in the Little Theater on February 14, was won by Gamma Sigma. The group under the direction of Helen Hogue sang In the Luxemburg Gardens.” Delta Phi, under the direction of Dorothy Rappel, was awarded second place for its singing of Indian Love Call.” Phoenix society, led by Mary Ann Witzel, received third place for its interpretation of Chinese Lullaby.” Honorable mention went to the Philakeans for “Stout-Hearted Men,” directed by Edward Heisinger. The lotans, through their initiative and originality, have widened the range of activities in which students may participate. The success of this year’s affair holds great promise for success and increasing interest in the future. COLLEGE BAND 133 Edwin Embertson June Wolfe THE COLLEGE PROMENADE The climax of the 1939 1940 social season was the All College Promenade on Friday, May 24. Alumni, faculty and students dar.ced to the music of Steve Swedish and his orchestra. The Eagles’ ballroom, scene cf the event, was beautifully decorated as the garden of a Southern plantation, complete with magnolias, Spanish moss, and white picket fence. Leading the grand march were King Edwin Embertson and Queen June Wolfe. King Embertson, of Washburn, who was chosen to this place of honor by student election, is president of Lyceum Society. Because of outstanding work on the college football squad, he was voted All-Conference tackle in 1938. He selected as his queen June Wolfe, Green Bay, an independent who is enrolled as a freshman in the intermediate division. 134 As honorary couple, the prom king chose Nile Roeder and Harriet Ladwig. Honor couples were Lawrence Herzog and Joyce Peterson, Thomas Hutchinson and Francis Boedeker, Rolla McMahon and Mae Patterson, Robert Brand and Jean Hoge, John Sullivan and Caroline Kalista, and George Dahl and Dorothy Ihrig. To aid in the weeks of planning and preparation necessary for a successful event, Joyce Peterson was selected chairman of the decoration committee, and Lawrence Herzog, head of the program committee. The decoration committee included Aileen Christoph, Charlotte Dobbins, Katherine Dexter, June Wolfe, Irvin Shudlick, Elmer Schabo, Raymond Specht, and George Lehner.
