f CURRAN LIBRARY WISCONSIN STATE COLLEGE SUPERIOR, WIS. “There is an expression throughout this book that the only way a Christian order for the world, where security, justice, and peace shall reign, can be obtained is that by which individuals have attained theirs, namely by organization into some form of community life.” —Frederick W. Lynch Shirtifth Tflnlump nf Sin' (5 it dip (Simtpp JJuLiliflhri by Slfr S’minr (Class nf tiip Superior § tatr Gtearlirrs (Enllrg upmnr, ffliarnnatu Sehtratimt We dedicate this hook to that great principle for which all the world is pleading, world peace, but especially would we dedicate it to those who like Woodrow Wilson Gustav Strcscmann Aristide Briand Barker Thomas Moon James T. Shot well Count Leo Tolstoy Theodore Roosevelt Jane Ad da ms Lord Robert Cecil David Starr Jordan Fridtjof Nansen Carlton H. Hayes Karl Hjalmar Braiding John H. Clarke Luis VI. Dr ago Thomas Hall Sliastid have recognized the fact “that to rescue mankind from madness, war must be ended, and that the highest test of a nation's courage, advancement, and progress will be its willingness to take the risk of leading the way to a permanent peace. —Robert M. La Follettc Presentation i MISS CAROLINE IV. BARBOUR The Senior Class of 1928 takes real pleasure in presenting this hook to Miss Caroline W. Barbour in appreciation of her scholarly, kindly, and generous services to the college. Her personal attainments and the forward-looking reputation of her department have brought honor to the school. The love and respect of the entire student body and faculty are hers t fjfic Jitcfv A MllllCC Uliat'a Jin Jft I Administrations II Seniors III Act i vi ties IV Organizations V Literary Section VI Athletics VII Features No peace palaces, no secret or open agreements, not even a Locarno Pact will suffice to prevent war. so long as the war making power remains in the hands of a very few persons —Dr. Thomas Hall Sliastid Jffnmunrft There is a golden thread that rims through the lives and teachings of all the sages and saviors in the world's liostory. This same golden thread enters into the lives of all who are a part of this busy school-day world of ours. To point out, simply and clearly, through word and picture, the accomplishments of the students during the past year,—to infuse into the lives of those who look■ on these pages, a bit of that “golden thread “ has been the aim of the editors of this bool:. the young people of the world are determined to outlaw war” —Dr. Walter E. Burnett Alma Mater I I I ®faB?ruatnrg litaranam $totnt GJlfp Seigtt nf $tearp Beautiful vision! how bright it rose— Vision of peaceful and calm repose! Well might it brighten the rapt seer’s eye. And waken his heart to an ecstacy! Twas earth, glad earth, when her strife was o’er, Her conflict ended, and war no more. Households are grouped in the fig-tree’s shade. None to molest them or make afraid; Securely rest ’neath the house-side vine Parent and child from the noon sunshine; Nations rejoice in the blest release. And the voice of Earth is a voice of peace. Beaut if id vision; and shall it be Surely accomplished, () Earth, in thee? The sword of war, shall it scathe no more The peaceful scenes of the softest shore? And light stream down from the radiant skies On scenes of the war god's sacrifice? Ay! for the word of the prophet is true. Fair was the vision; but full in view, The Moslem's saber, all keen and bright, Burnished and bare for the ready fight; Sheath it he will, and in spirit be Like the turtle dove in his cypress tree. The vines of Judah shall then be pruned. Her broken harp be again attuned; And listening Earth, from her farthest shore. Startled not now by the cannon’s roar. Songs of the Angels shall hear again; “Peace on earth, and good will to men!” —Eliza Thornton —17— 3fie Jiitcfie 5umec ffimillrrttmts like to close my tired eyes. And dream of days gone by; Till now. never realized How fast the time can fly. Our school days are no more—but gone. Life's happiest hour is passed; We had to lose the days themselves— The Dreams arc all that last. And how we miss the friends we had. Yet this I surely know, We'd like to see them once again. If ire could have it so. To shake their hands, to hear their voice To talk to them again Nor greet them Mr. this. Miss that. Hut simply LitI or Glen. And days at old Superior We'd once again recall. The study in the Rec. room. The flirting in the hall, The mischief and the bluffs ire played. The secrets that we told Would rise again before us. We'd live in days of old. The faculty itself would pass In critical review, And after alt the old was said We'd turn to something new. Have you e’er heard from this or this? And is he doing that? Time would seem to flit away In never-ending chat. Another day at old Superior, But a single hour more. To attend a “Pep assembly. And to hear the students roar, fust to see the same old places, And the happy smiles, too, fust to see the old friends' faces, And to meet with you—just you. E. T. C. Along with any organization of nations to keep peace must go a progressive education of public opinion.” —Will Irwin o tncc iSprollprltnuH like to close my tired eyes.

It was staged under the direction of the Trixters in the recreation hall. This dance was for the purpose of introducing the new students to the rest of the student body and to our college After the homecoming game with Stevens Point, on October 22. an inter-sorority dance was given in honor of the visiting team and of Superior's football squad. This affair was held in the gym and was one of the largest social events of the fall season. The committee which made the arrangements for the dance was composed of Miss Elizabeth Gillett. chairman, Miss Grace Evans, Miss Grace Green, and Miss Ruth Herschleb. The social chairman election was held in the early part of November, immediately after which a social committee was appointed to assist in arranging for the usual allschool dances. This committee consisted of Robert Connery, social chairman. Leslie Gallagher. Edward Hilton. Wayne Luther. William Foley. Lawrence Nichols. Elizabeth Gillett. Grace Evans, Margaret Davis. Ruth Freeman, and Clarence Letourneau. The success of the Thanksgiving dance held in the gym Wednesday night before Thanksgiving was largely due to this committee. On Friday evening. December 2. the Social Science Department entertained at an informal dancing party held in the gymnasium. This was the first dance ever given by a department to which the entire student body was invited. The dance, which was well attended, was planned by Mr. Donald (ensen, general chairman, assisted by Miss Katherine Young. Mr. Harvey Green. A iss Elvene Dohls. Miss Romelle Harmon. Mr. Andrew Broccone, and Mr. Walter Mattson. The social committee arranged for a dance on December 15. just preceding the Christmas vacation. This dancing party was given in the gymnasium. This was the largest social affair during the school year. The final dance of the first semester was given by the River Falls basketball game on Friday evening. January 27. This was also directed by the social committee. As the second semester was quite broken up by Lent and the Prom activities there were only four school mixers given. Two of these were held in the opening weeks of the semester by the Women's Athletic Association and two were sponsored by the social committee after Lent. All of these were held in the recreation hall from four to six in the afternoon. A twilight dance was held in the afternoon of Friday. June 1. This was the last dance of the year and was directed by the social committee. The success of these dances was due in a large measure, to the cooperation of the faculty, especially of the Dean of Women, Miss Ellen M. Clark, and of the Dean of Men. Professor E. H. Schrieber. who acted as advisors to the social committee. However, we cannot overlook the fact that the social committee, headed by Robert Connery, did much to make these dances the great social successes that they were. ROtiKRT CONNKRY—Social Chairman - .VI - t)lie Sitcfw Jjumee ITUmiPu’s Qjrt-Qhutrtljrr On January 12. 1028. a get together for all of the women of the college was held, sponsored by the Trixters. This is the first affair of the kind in the history of the school. Marjorie Bishop was general chairman and she was assisted by Uliana Lewis, who had charge of entertainment. The various committees were as follows: Games. Gladys Pars-low. Mildred McKibbon. Martha Perkins. Frances Dietrich, and Dorothy Gilbert; Refresh-ments. Grace Green, chairman. Dorothy Parish. Irene Coppins, Helen Christenson, and Greta Enerson; Music, Grace Evans, chairman, Ruth llerschleb, and Mabel Valine; Publicity. Dorothy Brunk, chairman, Sarah Hallock. and Marguerite Bjur. An admission fee of ten cents was charged to cover the expenses of the party. The program was opened with a grand march which was followed by games. It was discovered that many of the girls are inclined to be quite athletic and are especially skilled in playing football (when the footballs are balloons). Some members of the faculty also engaged in this most invigorating sport with a great degree of success. With such able leaders as Bessie Zeleznick and Evie Colenso. the cheering on the side-lines added much to the excitement of the game. Several other games were played, and after this the girls enjoyed an hour of dancing. During the intromission refreshments were served, which consisted of apples, doughnuts. and coffee guaranteed to keep no one awake. After more dancing, the strains of Home, Sweet Home brought the first All Women’s Night” to a successful close. Rhitnn Lewis Marjorie Uithop Annual flrtmmtaite The ninth annual proin was held in the Douglas County Court House on the evening of May the fourth. The decorations, which were very unique, added a great deal to the success of the event. About 450 couples attended and the prom was declared the best ever given in the history of the school. The grand march was led by Mr. Lester St. John, general chairman of the affair, and Miss Lticlla Larson. Prom Queen.

This was the annual all-men s party, and it was all that the committee in charge had advertised it to be. The evening was spent in hilarious fun between the Freshmen and upper classmen. Duche Miller of Morgan Park fame challenged all comers in wresting except of course. Phil Riley, champion of the school. Two Gun McCarthy finally succeeded in winning two out of three falls, and was declared the Champion Hot Dog wrestler. “Horse Shoe Williams thrilled the audience time and again with his daring horseback riding stunts. He won the reputation of being the worst of all bareback riders. Wrestling, boxing, basketball, baseball, tug o’ war. and bag rush featured the games that were played. There was a necking contest, but no necktie party, as the freshies did not wear ties. After all the champions had been picked, the men consumed a tremendous amount of hot dogs (said to be one million) and milk. The dogs were furnished by Thorpe Langley, and were shot by Omar and Van. The party aided a great deal in .helping the men of the school to become better acquainted. The committee for the stag was F.rnest L'eidler, Raymond Chattcrson, Nick Weiss, Donald Jensen, and Maurice Wright. This party was sponsored by the Trixters. a new extra-curricular club of the college. FF.IDLER. JENSEN. WEISS -s — Dramatics “Drama seems to have been written for purpose of social instruction, and its aim seems to be to create thought, and it is through the creation of the right kind of thought that long strides will be made toward the realization of world peace. —Homer A. Watt —James B. Munn UII1C 'lie iitcf’it iramattrfi Besides providing many pronounced artistic successes, the dramatic activities of this past year have contributed considerable stage equipment to the College. Some of the articles provided arc a silver screen, a spot light, a make-up kit. a blue sky drop, a new set of scenery, and dressing room equipment Dramatic activities of the year were opened on October 27. when the Iron Mask sponsored by Seventh Heaven ’ which was obtained from the Better Plays Extension Course. The next play to be produced was The Patsy.” given by the Lambda Delta Chi fraternity on December 9. With the proceeds of the play a new set of stage scenery was given to tile College. The play was such an artistic success that it was given again on February 3 at the Villa in Duluth. The Three Arts sorority presented a children's play, “The Steadfast Princess. on the evenings of March 9 and 10. A matinee performance of this play was given on the afternoon of the 9th. The Alpha Psi Omega, honorary dramatics fraternity, produced the play. Seven Keys to Baldpate.” on March I. This play was coached by Professor Langley, the advisor of the fraternity. The play was a marked success and we hope that the society will give a play next year The last play of the year was given May 3 by the Senior Class. This production. Mr. Pirn Passes By.” was coached by Professor Langley. On February 17 the Lambda Sigma Lambda sorority presented in assembly a skit based on the picture. West Point. which the sorority sponsored at the Princess theatre. Probably the most outstanding dramatic achievement of the year was the annual Sigma Pi Vodvil. held on March 23. Nine acts took part in this Vodvil. First place was awarded to the Sigma Omega sorority, second place to the Lambda Delta Chi fraternity, and third place to the Alpha Kappa sorority. The Parent Teachers Association of Superior sponsored a play. The Youngest. which was coached by Mr. Thomas H. Davev. a Teachers College student, and which was presented at the College auditorium on the evenings of April II and 12. The Hex fraternity sponsored another showing of The Youngest on Friday. April 27. The remarkable success achieved in dramatics this past year, which resulted in the production of many successful plays, the addition of considerable stage equipment, and the organization in this College of a chapter of the Alpha Psi Omega, national honorary dramatics fraternity has been due without doubt very largely to the coaches of the various plnvs which have been produced. Professor Langley coached The Patsy. Seven Keys to Baldpatae. and Mr. Pint Passes By, and was manager of the Sigma Pi Vodvil. Mr. Friede. of the faculty of the Superior Central High School, coached the Three Arts play The Steadfast Princess. and Mr. Thomas Davey coached The Youngest. and the three winning acts in the Sigma Pi Vodvil.

The band played at every football game and every basketball game except one, establishing the record that every game at which they have’ played, was won by Superior. The band escorted the football team to River Falls where, mid cold north winds and ground-seat accommodations, it made a splendid showing in dress and in marching on the field. The band furnished popular music for the Superior Curling Club skaters for several weeks last winter. This spring the band made a three-day tour of Wisconsin, playing in the larger high schools. The band is growing steadily from the original membership of four to the present organization of twenty-five members. The following students received the school S for band: Director: Palmer J.

They have sung before the College assemblies at different times during the last two years, and have been well received. In l! 27 the trio went to Eau Claire and in H 2S to Oshkosh to the state Extempore and Oratorical Contests. They did their share while there to let the people know they were front Superior State Teachers College. After this school year opened, these three men were much in demand for radio concerts. musicalcs. and banquets. They have appeared in such this year in both Duluth and Superior. The trio is a very successful part of our musical program, and we congratulate them on the wonderful reputation they have succeeded in making for themselves and for the school. Hilton Kinney Satterstrom -70- iFnmifitr Sraami Superior debaters this year completed one of the most successful forensic seasons in the history of the College. The work was begun early in the season with a number of tryouts from which finally developed the two school teams coached by Professors Vitz and Simpson. Not only was the season one of the most successful from the viewpoint of the percentage of victories, but also successful because of the number of debates, the school teams engaging in twelve inter-collegiate contests. In the oratorical and extempore speaking contests which were held at the Oshkosh State Teachers College in March, Superior was well represented. The oratorical speaker was coached by Miss MacQuilkin and the extempore speaker by Professor Simpson. In all lines of forensic work the student body showed renewed interest awakened no doubt by the increased number of contests, which allowed a larger nttmhr of students to participate. Superior is fortunate in having three such able coaches as Miss Nona MacQuilkin. Prof. Frank E. Vitz, and Prof. George Simpson to direct forensic activities, and under their leadership the school should continue to maintain the high standing it has won. Vitz MacQuilkin Simpson —7S— lExtPntjinranpmta Speaking I lie general topic on which extempore activities of this season were based was the Foreign Policy of the United States since the World War with special reference to Latin America.” Three contests were held this season under the direction of Prof. George Simpson, coach. November IS was the date of the first contest. First place was given to William Foley. A prize of $10 went to the winner. Only first place was announced. On January 17 the second contest was held. Marry Larsen was awarded first place, while second place went to Ernest Feidler. A prize of $10 was awarded in this contest also. I he final contest came on February IS. Atr. Ernest Feidler won first place and the privilege of representing the College in the state contest at Oshkosh. Second place was given to Marry Larsen. Prizes of $ 15 and $10 were given to winners of first and second place. At the state contest held at Oshkosh March 10. Mr. Feidler raised the standard of the school extempore. His subject was Our Latin American Policy in regard to the late Pan American Congress at Havana. A r. I'eidler won second place, thus placing higher than any Superior extempore speaker had formerly done. 31jp S tatp 3Komiair (Enntrst The State Forensic contest was held at Oshkosh State Teachers College this year, and was well attended by all Teachers Colleges of the state. The contest was rated as one of the best ever held in Wisconsin. Superior was represented in oratory by William R. Foley, whose oration was A Friendly Analysis. Stevens Point, represented by Frank Joswick. whose oration was Crime—A Challenge to Youth, won this contest. In extempore speaking. Superior was represented by Ernest Feidler, who won second place. At the business meeting. Robert Van Kleek, president of the local Forensic League. Harry Larsen, and Professor George Simpson attended from Superior. Many changes were made in the constitution, which will greatly aid Forensics in the future. The Glee Clubs, under the management of Robert Connery and directed by Aliss Irene Curtis, did more than their share in making the contest a good one. Superior's delegation had the distinction of being the second largest and of having traveled the longest distance to the convention. Foley Van Kleek Feidler -7D— Afttrmatiur Spam The affimative team was coached by Professor Frank E, Vitz and was picked to meet the strong River Falls team. Although the team was defeated in this debate, it was not an easy victory for River Falls, as the home team used every effort to defeat the convincing arguments of the opponents. It is true that the affirmative team did not win as many debates as the negative, but their record is one of which the school can well be proud. The team was composed of the two veterans, William R. Foley and Elvira Thompson. Robert Van Kleek was picked ns the third member at the tryouts in the fall, and Allan Boros was picked as alternate.

(Expert Judge.) 3fie Dilcfie umee Oratory Duo to the Rrcal activity of Coach Nona MacQuilkin the oratory division of forensics took on greater proportions than ever before in the history of the College. In order to get as many people as possible to try out for the school orator position. Miss MncQuilkin organized a series of three contests to be held in the late fall and early winter. A prize of ten dollars was awarded the winner of first place in each contest. It was decided that the individual who won first place in the final contest would be the school orator. Mr. William R. Foley, college orator of last year, won all three contests and was thereby chosen to represent the school in oratory at the annual contest held at Oshkosh on March 16. The contests were held on October 21. December 9. and January 27. The students pictured below were the participants in the contests. This system was declared a success because of the number of students who were given an opportunity to take part. - sc!— A 3u irttMjj Analysis By William R. Foley A succession of overwhelming changes nod tremendous upheavals has made the past few decades unique in the history of the world. Never before has civilization known such startling developments in the field of science. The first quarter of the century witnessed the most awful war that has ever been known. The last twenty-five years have seen an astounding upheaval of political institutions. In that brief period we have seen the downfall of the Russian Empire, a crash which involved one-sixth of the area of this planet and 170,000,000 people—probably the most stupendous single political event since the break-up of the Roman Empire. We have seen Turkey arise out of the ruins of the decrepit, detested, and defeated Ottoman Empire.” a new nation, more democratic than any other existing democracy. We have seen Italy voluntarily put herself into the hands of a despot. We have been watching Mexico and a host of smaller countries overturning governments periodically. We have seen the boundary lines of Europe so radically changed that maps of 1900 are useless today. I lie effects of these things have been so complex and so far-reaching that they completely staggered the minds of men. So striking have been their consequences that they have intimidated this country. Men have become fearful of change. They are failing to modify their ideas and to mould their actions to fit the needs of changing conditions. This conservatism which is fastening itself upon us is encouraged by our rapidly increasing prosperity. This country boasts more multi-millionaires than any other in the world, and most of them have accumulated their wealth within the last twenty-five years. Moreover, our people as a whole have never before lived so comfortably and luxuriously. This rather general condition of prosperity puts a large majority of our people into tlie group which is anxious to guard what it possesses. As this group looks over the last quarter of a century, it sees that the tremendous upheavals of governments abroad have seriously disturbed the financial status of individuals in the countries involved. Middle-class Germans, who were considered well-to-do before the political disturbances in their country played havoc with the value of the mark, became poor almost over night. And the decline in the value of the ruble had the same effect in Russia. And as our actual and potential capitalists, observing these European happenings, are confronted with the possibility of the same experiences here at home, they are aroused to the necessity of safeguarding their own possessions. But the immensity of their personal interests and the cataclysmic character of the European upheavals have magnified the fear of disturbance in the eyes of our propertied classes until it has become an obsession with them, so that they have become fearful of all change and have reached the point where they will defend th status quo at all costs. In such a state of mind the American people are consistently electing and supporting administrations whose policy seems to be to blind themselves to the problems confronting them. With his plea to “bring the country back to normalcy. Harding was elected President in 1920. And his administration lived up to this campaign promise. Not a single piece of progressive legislation was enacted during his term. Content to pass on to future generations the responsibility of the solution of ever-growing problems, this country in I!� 24 returned the conservative forces to power for another four years, which likewise have been marked by an absence of governmental activity. A certain deadly fear of change is settling down upon us. We are giving up the battle for truth. This widespread tendency toward aimless drifting has also become very evident in our foreign affairs. Our government, not following any well defined policy, has blundered into a position of economic imperialism. Instead of laying out a course reflecting its ideals to be consistently followed, it has acted only with the purpose of getting itself out of temporary difficulties. Its only political philosophy has been to reduce the ill-effects of unpleasant situations with as little effort, originality, and consciousness of danger as possible. This same pernicious avoiding of responsibility is manifest in the failure of our government to conceive of problems existing in the industrial world and even to make an attempt to solve them. At this moment, we are following the short-sighted policy of shutting our eyes to the realization that a serious situation is pressing upon us in the labor world. Our government has refused to take any positive action to solve the problems existing in the Pennsylvania coal mines, although it has been shown that social revolution and industrial warfare are raging all over the western part of the state. 1 am making no attempt to fix the blame for this trouble, but this situation does exist, and the failure of our government to act to eliminate these conditions is an excellent example of its apathy. -NJ- 7 f c Site Tie A Jrimblg Attalgfltfl All these things indicate that there is an absence of confident progressive action on the part of our people. Like men about the wheel of fortune at Monte Carlo, we sit fearing even to breathe lest we force the wheel to stop at the wrong place. Accumulating goods and avoiding difficult decisions is the formula upon which our life is largely constructed today, we have substituted expedience for general principles. We are content with blundering toward results. 1 am not calling attention to this tendency because I am hopeless for the future, but because I believe that it is only by facing the facts that we can arrive at a constructive course of action. We must expect that if the fuure life of our counry is wholesome, there will be ever-increasing problems before us. And to meet these problems, our nation must rid itself of the tendency toward unreasoning conformity to outworn institutions and ideas. Our ears must be open for suggestion and our eyes for new conditions. It is by faith in the law of change and adaptation, and the practice of its precents, that we as a nation can continue to grow. We must always remember that the high eminence which the United States has attained in the past has been due to is recognition of this principle. I'or example, slavery was an established institution in this country until Americans realized its unfairness. But as soon as they did realize it, they tried every possible means, compromises, fugitive slave laws, constitutional amendments, and even a war to abolish it. Later in our history we must recall it was necessary to pass unheard of anti-trust laws, federal trade commission and interstate commerce commission acts to regulate the activities of the trusts when they became too strong. We must remember that civil service laws were passed to help put an end to the spoils system. Amendments to the constitution providing for the direct election of senators, and the income tax were ratified to remedy other injustices. When labor conditions became serious, minimum wage laws, safety appliance legislation, child labor laws, season’s acts, and arbitration boards were provided for. And in the same spirit the open-minded America of the past has met many other emergencies which have arisen and has experimented and improved its institution's to meet new demands. The external conditions surrounding the development of our nation have been discouraging. At this country’s inception it was forced to rebel against a foreign tyrant; it was necessary to meet ancf conquer the fiercest resistance of nature in subdueing a wild and undeveloped territory; but in spite of these environmental handicaps, our nation has reached its present stage of great power because it has had the confidence and vitality to force itself to keep pace with changing social needs. But it is my fear, my fixed belief that today, our too cautious concern for protecting our present condition of comparative wellbeing has engulfed us in a wave of reaction. Let us remember that nothing of great moment was ever achieved by those who cautiously consult and slavishly follow precedents. The situation must be viewed by each nation and each generation boldly thru its own eyes, not timorously with the forefinger in the guidebook of history.” May we be given the insight and granted the power to lift this business of government back into an adventure which shall ultimately fashion the life of this commonwealth in the likeness of that city of God which has been the dream of saints and seers for immemorial centuries.” r rgani atuma “It is our duty to organize and combine so that we may work effectively to-gether to outlaw war” —Edward L.

Meetings were given over almost entirely to discussions of the teaching of English. President Gillett addressed the group as did the following members of the faculty: the Misses Thetford. Deaton. Oilman, MacQuilkin. and Prof. Frank E. Vitz. HISTORY Prof. O. I.. Loop again served as advisor for the History section. Faculty members of the History department addressed the students and led discussions on topics of interest. On December second the group sponsored an all-school mixer which was a decided success. SCIENCE Prof. E. H. Schricher s able leadership undoubtedly had a great deal to do with the success of the Science group. Besides informal get-togethers and entertainments, the students heard talks given by members of the faculty in the Science department. President Gillett also addressed the group. MATHEMATICS The Mathematics section has been making a study of the history of mathematics during the second semester. Besides hearing Prof C. W. Smith, the advisor, the students have been addressed by Prof. Schrieber of the school facultv, Mr. Dolevsh. principal of the Pattison School, and Mr. Wade, principal of Central High School. The Mathematics department, in its second year, is steadily increasing in importance in the school curriculum, and as a result of its popularity, new courses in Alafhcniatics arc being introduced.

The girls sold tickets for the Wisconsin Men s Glee Club, which sang in the school auditorium the evening of April seventh, and also organized a Nickel-a-Wcek Club. These are but a few of the ways in which they earned the necessary amount of money. The members of the Kindergarten-Primary department are to be commended for their success and for making it possible for Superior State Teachers College to he so well represented at such an important convention.

If teachers have been powerful enough to Christianize pagan Rome and dethrone a Russian despot we may consistently conclude that they can teach the world international goodwill. —Selected Alumni The College should not lose interest in the former members of its student body, because these former students help in a great measure to make the school what it is. Each year President Gillett attends numerous alumni banquets held in various sections of the state. These gatherings are usually held in the fall or spring and are very well attended. These banquets are planned by the alumni members in each respective section, so we see that the alumni is very active. President Gillett is doing a great thing in keeping his contact with these former students. The Alumni Section is a new feature of the book this year. The editors have attempted to cover a number of classes and likewise graduates of the school. Many of the faculty members have been interviewed in order to gather this material. Although this section may not interest the student body we feel that there are many who read this book who will Ik much interested in knowing where their former classmates and friends are and what they are doing. Of course we have not included a great number of graduates, and perhaps all the classes are not represented but, nevertheless we have done a little towards calling attention to the activities of the graduates of the college.

The attainment of the goal, however. will not be achieved in the near future. The task before us is too great to be solved quickly and easily. We must be prepared to work as untiringly and to give as unstint-ingly toward achieving world peace as we did to achieve the end of the World War. Such an intricate problem as that presented by the idea of world peace will allow of no simple means of solution. At the present time we can not aspire to world peace by means of disarmament. The world of today is not ready for such a solution of the problem. We are not sufficiently recovered from the years of strife we have just passed through to risk a repetition of them through lack of preparedness. Such a method will undoubtedly be useful, but it must await its proper time. Neither can we solve the problem at the present time by means of organizations such as the League of Nations or the World Court. These organizations or similar organizations will undoubtedly play a large part in maintaining peace when it is once achieved. Neither can we hope for world peace while we continue to teach our children national patriotism instead of world patriotism. We must undergo a transition from the idea postulated by Stephen Decatur, My country, right or wrong; may she always he in the right, but right or wrong, my country. to. My country; may she always be in the right, but when she is not in the right I will do my best to put her right.” The fact of the matter is that the present day world is not ready for peace. There can be no peace while petty jealousies, imperialism, and over-emphasized nationalism continue to exist. However, though the present generation cannot solve the problem, we can do much to hasten its solution. We have already made more progress than any past generation. It is our duty to pave the way as far as we can in educating our children and the children of the future up to a world consciousness. We must inculcate in their minds the everlasting idea of peace and the futile non-necessity of war. and in their hearts the idea of brotherly love, not with their own countrymen alone, but with their brothers throughout the world. This is not a difficult task, but it is one that will take time to achieve. It is our duty to push a little further along the way that our posterity may live in a spirit of everlasting brotherly love and universal peace. —121— iEiiuratinn anil Unrlii pparr By Mary Zygmanski Much has been said about the horror and destruction of the last war, and we think it was a terrible affair. But in truth, it was conducted in a very feeble and amateurish manner in comparison with the wav in which the next world conflict will be waged. Grasp, for example, the significance of the invention of Lewisite gas. which is employed in only one air raid, would kill every living thing in a city the size of New York. At this rate, it would take a surprisingly short time to wipe out all the centers of population of the world. The last war took ten million, but the destruction of the next war would surpass human imagination. We may well consider the words of Baldwin, the Prime Minister of England, who summed up the situation very well, by saying, Who in Europe does not know that one more war in the West, and the civilization of the ages will fall with as great a shock as that of Rome? War, besides being a deadly practise, is a very futile and foolish one. It effects the weeding out of the best stock of our nations and the leaving of the worst. Only those who can pass severe tests as to health, perfect build, and normal intelligence are allowed to go to war. Do they all return after their work is done? No. their ranks are greatly depleted. But the unfit, who stayed at home, are all present. Also, the fighters, the men who have to do the actual killing and who themselves have to be killed, are absolutely innocent of the matter in dispute. Why should they be made to sacrifice their lives for something for which they are not in the least responsible? In addition, war, by that I mean the actual fighting and killing, never settled a dispute. It has always been merely a side issue, and the real settling has been done by a board, a group of men representing each side, who have finally found that it was after all necessary to come together around a table and settle their difficulties by discussion. Such a thing could have been done just as well before the waste of life and money took place, and the results have been the same, probably better. The question arises as to just what is the cause of such a horrible and futile thing as war? The answer is this—War is caused by such practises as dollar diplomacy, in which a strong nation, forever pursuing the almighty dollar, tramples on any weaker nation which happens to stand in its way. Secret diplomacy, which by its very name discloses its nature as being such that it dare not show itself to the scrutinizing gaze of the world, is another cause of war. Also, we are apt to be led into war by indiscriminatory patriotism, the sort in which the people of a country blindly think of their fatherland as a paragon of virtues, not as a being which should do no wrong, but one which can do no wrong. Then too, the common mass of people takes very little interest in national or foreign relations during peace time, so that when a war breaks out as a result of transactions which took place in peace time, they are not able to take advantage intelligently of their right to wield their powerful weapon of public opinion, and tacitly allow themselves to be swayed by a few politicians and grasping business men. Some people hold that war is inevitable because man is instinctively a fighting animal, and must give play to his instincts. They also hold that it is needful because a long peace is demoralizing to a nation. In answer to this last assertion, I wonder if these people ever stopped to think about some of the unfortunate after-effects of the last war, such as the Teapot Dome case, the wartime profiteers, and the scandal in the Veterans' Bureau? At present, let us consider the other five causes of war which I stated, namely, dollar diplomacy, secret diplomacy, indiscriminatory patriotism, ignorance of national and foreign affairs, and the assumption that the instinct for fighting must be allowed to work out. What can be done to remove or correct these situations? Attempts in this direction, in the forms of a World Court, a League of Nations, innumerable peace treaties, and plans for the reduction of armaments have met with only meager success. For neither these nor any other attempt to secure world peace can ever be successful until they are backed up by the common mass of the people of the world, a mass whose members understand each other, and which considers itself all one big family living in the single state of the world, not a mass divided into some fifty little nations, intolerant, distrustful, and prejudiced toward each other. Until this better feeling can be effected, all attempts at peace will only be external. They will form only the machinery of peace, but will lack the power given by the people to’ make it move. This requirement can be satisfied only with the assistance of the educational forces of the world. Education, that broadening force, has the sole power to give people a wider and better understanding of life, to instill into them —122— lE uraiimt anil Unrlfi llean? high ideals of the rights of humanity, and so to make them realize that peace is not in parchments, but in the heart and brain.” It is a coincidence that it is not only necessary for the school to take the lead in making world peace possible, but also that it is best fitted to do it. In no other place but the school could there be such easy and continual access to the child, who is the most important figure in this peace movement. I say most important, for the child has its whole life ahead of it in which to carry on the good work, and it is easier to instill peace ideals from the beginning into the plastic mind of a child, than to change the war ideals of a staid and opinionated older generation to those of peace. Also m no other place but the school have we the facilities such as books, movies, pictures, and lectures, or the enormous amount of time with which to work. Then too, in no other place could we come into such daily contact with a disciple of peace, who is trained to talk it and who firmly believes in it. but in the school in the person of the teacher. This burden of peace education, which the teacher has assumed is a worthy, but nevertheless a big and responsible task, and the question now confronts him as to how he can go about accomplishing it. There are literally thousands of ways of doing tins I will not attempt to enumerate them, and have onlv space enough to make some very general suggestions. For one thing, he can tell the truth about history at all times, and show that no nation is all right or all wrong. He can teach the child to be tolerant and patient with other people. He can try to lessen racial contempt. The virtues of democracy, sympathy, and mercy can he shown up in a favorable light. In english and history classes the teacher has many chances to show the indebtedness of one country to another for great men, great ideas, inventions, pecuniary aid, and for our comforts and necessities of life. In games and in school work, the child should learn the necessity of fair play. In this work there is also a chance to sublimate the instinct for fighting, which some contend makes war inevitable. He can show the child how to reason and to choose deliberately and judiciously. The task of education for peace is one of immense proportions, and it will necessarily take a long time to complete it. But is this any reason why a beginning should not be made? The present time is not the end of human history. It is barely the beginning, and note that in this short time we have already developed from the savage, living by himself, through all the intermediate stages of organization to that of the nation. Is there any reason why we should not take the final step, organize a world state, instill into all its inhabitants a world patriotism, and then realize the dream of ages, world peace? No. the plan is a very logical one. . , . Therefore, join in and help in this crusade for education and universal brotherhood and peace. Peace has always been a crying need of the world, but today it is the imperative one. and it can he satisfied by only one thing, education. Nothing else is capable of so thoroughly changing from one extreme to the other, the feelings and mind-set of humanity. In no other place but the school room can we find hope and salvation for the world. We must realize this fact, and cannot begin too soon to work on it. for our case is desperate. H. G. Wells says. We are engaged in a race between catastrophe and education. Catastrophe means War and Death—-Education means I eace and Life. Inch will win? It is up to us to decide, but if we do not act soon, we shall not be able to act at all. —123— ®l)p Nnltpl rizpH—An Attaluais By E. R. Feidler “Success furnishes its own reward! The mercenary man never reaches the lop in any profession or line of endeavor.” You have but to scan the list of outstanding men in the various realms of occupation and you will find the proof for this rather pungent statement. Even the professional ball player whose heart and soul are on pecuniary return never reaches the heights of brilliance and the spotlight fame that he who plays the game for the game’s sake attains. Just reflect back over those big time” players who have attained head-line prominence. Did they play the game because of the pay check at the end of the month? Hardly. How can a man think about the riches he is going to get and still do the quick, technical thinking that baseball demands front her luminaries? To speak in the expressive parlance of the street, it just isn't done. Those flaming lights like Hans Wagner. Ty Cobb, and Rube Waddell played with their whole hearts; they played, so to speak, for the glory of the game. In the dominion of science we cannot help but notice the services of Stcinmetz and Roentgen, both so completely absorbed in their work that they cared not for the dollars and cents that their experiments might bring, but only for the additional knowledge that they might give to the world. They had the true scientific attitude, and the world treated them in the true worldly manner. Both died poor and without a penny. Of course we can hardly postulate that the man who does big things shall receive no monetary gain of like proportion. Such an axiom would be self-condemning, for we all know that men like Tommy Edison and “Hank” Ford, big men in their fields, have accumulated tremendous wealth. The former's contribution to society was the phonograph, while the latter said, Let there be lizzies. and there were lizzies. Yet. be that as it may. we cannot deny the fact that those undertakings, whether we approve of them as social considerations or not, were truly big pieces of work. Alfred Nobel was a man who did big things and was fortunate enough to become a rich man as the result of his deeds. He was a great Swedish chemist, and his soccial field was explosives. He loved to tinker with explosives just as the famous doctor loves to work with medicines, scrums, and the like. Nobel's most important contribution to the world was the explosive nitroglycerine. Had Nobel done only that one thing he would have been assured of a place of undying honor in science's hall of fame. But Nobel, like all genuinely great men, was not content nor willing to stop with his newly won laurels. He made nitroglycerine usable in the forms of dynamite and gun cotton. As a result of the manufacture of these two well-known commercial products, the Swedish chemist gathered together an immense fortune. Nobel was filled with a love for all mankind, and had he ever thought that his discovery might be used for anything except the bettering of man’s estate, lie would have kept nitroglycerine and dynamite a deep, dark secret. And what use did the world decide to make of his explosives? Mars, the hateful god of war. recognized that here indeed was a godsend (or shall we say devilsend) to his set of death-dealing tools of destruction. As a result the terrors, the horrors, the sorrows that accompany all war were increased to a degree never dreamed of before. Nobel was sincerely aghast at this Frankenstein thing which he had created, and he sought to undo the wrong that he had unwittingly done by turning over the proceeds of his inventions to be used as a foundation for a series of prizes 01 rewards to those persons who had accomplished most every year in the fields of peace and the peaceful pursuits of science and letters. -12-1— ®!)r Nolipl prizes—An Analysts But Nobel, great chemist that he was. failed to show an understanding of the underlying forces of human nature and human psychology. He did not see that those individuals who would be the outstanding candidates for these prizes, who would perform the greatest services in behalf of humanity, would be the very ones to whom the monetary prizes that he offered would prove no incentive. We can almost imagine Roosevelt. Elihu Root, or Woodrow Wilson laboring daily for the betterment of human affairs, burning the midnight oil to outlaw war and promote a lasting peace, so that when New Year's rolled around they might receive a ten thousand dollar check on the Bank of Stockholm. No, as we noted at the beginning, money has never proved an incentive to truly great men. We doubt severely if Nobel himself would have carried on his research in explosives for a mere prize. From this discussion it might seem that Nobel did no service to humanity when he founded his various prizes, that he made a great mistake. Well, perhaps he made a mistake, but it certainly cannot be said that his experiment came to naught. Other persons, philanthropically inclined, have profited by the errors of Nobel and have given fortunes for the establishment of schools and institutions where work that is conducive to the rule of peace is continually carried on. Here will be found such materials as the worker may need to carry out his designs. Every such institution is a monument to the great Swede who did his best to benefit mankind, whose procedure was wrong, but whose purpose was laudable and has borne fruit.

Although our teams were nosed out of the state championship in both basketball and football by the narrowest margins, in both of these sports Superior's teams were of championship caliber. In football the Orange and Black went through the conference season undefeated until the last game of the year at River Falls, where Superior lost one of the most thrilling and hard fought games ever seen in the Teachers College Conference. Among the accomplishments of the season our victory over Gustavus Adolphus, who later won the championship of Minnesota, stands out most brilliant. In basketball the story is about the same as that of the football season as Superior defeated La Crosse and River Falls, two of the strongest teams in the conference, early in the year, only to lose to Stevens Point and River Falls (second game) which cost us the state championship. Superior’s outstanding record this year is to a great extent due to the work of Coach Tubbs, whose teams, year after year have been consistently strong and usually in the running for the conference title. We take this opportunity to show our appreciation for the hard work of the coach in establishing the reputation of a high brand of athletics that our College now has in Michigan, Wisconsin, and Minnesota. A strong hockey team, handicapped by the lack of equipment and the lack of practice was also developed this last winter, and .it the time of the printing of this book a track team is being organized. The activity of our athletic department has not been confined to intercollegiate contests. for intra-mural athletics have also flourished. Inter-fraternity basketball games, tennis matches, barnyard golf games, and kittenball games have extended this department's activities so as to reach a large part of the student body.

Our College in the persons of Phil Riley, “Fat Hilton and l.es Johnson, supplied talent in cheer leadership that did much in building morale in our teams and in supplying spirit to our school. We owe much to those who aided in any way to pep up the school and waken our enthusiasm. The Homecoming spirit was of special notice this year. The Pep Committee was composed of three cheer leaders, Edward Hilton, Phil Riley, and Lester Johnson; Robert Connery acted as chairman of the pep assemblies: and the faculty advisor for all pep activities was Prof. Thorpe Langley.

JffnnthaU CAPTAIN RAYMOND CHATTERSON The Orange and Black football warriors were fortunate indeed in having as their leader and Captain. Ray Chatterson. Ray played tackle and was always a man much to be feared on both offense and defense. He was at all times a hard fighter and a consistent player. He led the team well and was a good sportsman, a cheerful winner, and a good loser. Much of the success of the team is due to Captain Chatterson and we congratulate him on the wonderful record which the football team made this year CAPTAIN RAYMOND CHATTKRSON Tackle MANAGER FEIDLER Much of the success of a team depends on its manager. The team will be peppy, confident, and full of fight, just as the manager is peppy, confident and full of fight. The manager of a team acts as its big brother and comforter, and is one that can inspire a team in time of need. Ernie Fcidler was this year's manager, and we think lie did fine work. He was always on the job, and did his bit to help at all times. Ernie will Ik- back next year, and we wish him and the team loads of luck. ERNEST FEIDI.ER Manager -iso- Sumthall Nyjiard.

Starting the season with perhaps the most promising array of football talent that this college has ever had. Superior fans were given a jolt in the first game of the season when, due to the newness of the Sii|K rior combination and the attempt to experiment with new plays, the local gridiron representatives were defeated by the Nibbing Junior College aggregation on September 24. Neither of the teams showed a marked suoeriority over its opponents in this game, as the ball was kept in the middle of the field during most of the encounter. The one touchdown was the result of a break of the game, when Superior fumbled on its thirty-vard line and Nibbing recovered the ball. Two plays later, the visitors passed. Cameron. Nibbing end, grabbed the ball, and the score was 6 to 0. when Hibbing's attempt to kick goal failed. The one touchdown was scored during the first quarter, and during the remainder of the game Nibbing was unable to get past Superior's thirty-yard line. Superior led the rangemen in the number of first downs gained, and the punting ol Siegel and Broeonnc. Superior bnckfield performers, was the feature of an otherwise comparatively dull game. Si. John Tackle or Guard: Gcflc, All-Confcrcncc Halfback; MeMnick. End; Kykyri, End. Virginia Junior College 3; Superior 20 Smarting from their defeat by Hibbing in the first game of the season, the Superior pigskin warriors completely vindicated themselves on October I by trampling all over Virginia Junior College on Virginia's home field. Even though Superior fumbled often, the Orange and Black players showed such a powerful attack in this game that the Virginia men were completely outplayed. At the start of the game, it looked as though the contest would be a hard battle, as neither team was able to score for a long time. Finally, Virginia broke the ice. scoring three points by the dropkick route. This seemed to arouse the Superior team, which suddenly went on a scoring rampage which continued until the end of the game. The Superior line was impenetrable, and the work of the Orange and Black hackfield was the feature of the game. Broccone pulled off a thrilling 55 yard run during the last few minutes of play, while the clever work of Hendrickson and Geffe was outstanding during the whole contest. Due to the ease with which Superior was winning, our team became careless and was penalized often for holding, and these penalties in many instances stopped potential Superior touchdowns. —i:c Gustav us Adolphus G; Superior 31 In what was unquestionably the most thrilling game of the season and the most outstanding upset of the year, the local representatives swamped Gustavus Adolphus on October «S by the score of 31-0. The strength of Superior's opponents in this game is shown by the fact that later in the season. Gustavus Adolphus won the championship of the Minnesota Colleges. Although Superior was greatly outweighed in this game, the Orange and Black warriors fought and plunged and tore around end to such an extent that the Minnesota aggregation was completely swept off its feet. Superior’s line was a bulwark of power, in which Noruk. Nelson, mid Nygard played the stellar roles. The local backfield showed as much class as the line, for Geffe. Hendrickson, and Siegal shattered the Gustie line and tore around end time and time again. The visitors made their only score during the third period, when they caught the Superior defense off guard and heaved a pass which resulted in a touchdown. The unexpectedly powerful type of play shown in this game placed Superior’s aggregation this year among the best that have ever represented this College. D'li.m.

In the latter part of the game, the substitutes were put into the game, and Eau Claire managed to score a touchdown on a forward pass and later in the afternoon they scored a safety. Except for these few flashes by the Eau Claire aggregation. Superior had an easy time, running up touchdown after touchdown. Superior's showing in this Eau Claire game placed Superior definitely in championship class. The only unpleasant feature of an otherwise successful and pleasant afternoon was the injury of Christianson. Eau Claire halfback, who was taken to the hospital with an injured spine. —1 4— t?fie Jiiniu! HumthaU Nnruk. Guard; Sited. Pullback; Green, Fullback; Peterson. Fullback. Stevens Point Teachers College 0; Superior Teachers College 28 Our annual game with Stevens Point on October 22 proved to he a highly successful culmination of the Homecoming activities of 1927. Although the score indicates a very one-sided contest, our victory was not as easy as it might appear. During almost the whole first quarter, the Pointers fought the Superiorites at even terms, and it was not until the second quarter that the powerful Orange and Black scoring machine got into action. There was no individual star in the whole Superior line-up. for the line was a stone wall from end to end. and the local hackfield functioned like a perfect machine, with its trick plays working to perfection. The chief opposition on the part of Stevens Point came from the stellar defensive work of Weronke, powerful Point center. Jilt JffnnllutU lloryza, All-Coiifcrcncc Tackle; Miller. H.-il(l .-ick: Hrocconc. Quarterback. Stout Institute 6; Superior Teachers College 21 On October 29. the Superior team defeated Stout Institute by a score of 21-6. The R. me started out like the Stevens Point game with the Orange and Black's opponents opening up with a varied attack in the first quarter that resulted in a score. After a series of unexpected gains. Stout was presented with a fifteen-yard penalty as the result of a Superior player's holding. This put them within scoring distance, and shortly afterward. Stout went across for its only touchdown. After being scored upon, the Superior squad turned about and began a series of long runs and passes that resulted in a final score of 21 for the Orange and Black. Stout was outplayed in every departnientof the game, and after the first quarter, the superiority of the Orange and Black was clearly marked. Jfie liilcfu utnec Jffonthall River Falls 12; Superior Teachers College 0 Accompanied by over a hundred Superior rooters, the Orange and Black squad joiirncved to River Falls on November 5 to play their traditional rivals. Up to this game. Superior had gone through the conference without a defeat, and hopes in Superior were high for a state championship. But the great size of the River Falls men. coupled with the seeming failure of the Superior aggregation to get its plays working, brought Superior's first and only conference defeat of the season. The two teams fought almost at even terms, until River Falls finally succeeded in putting across a touchdown. As the game progressed, it became evident that Superior could never win by straight football, so the Orange and Black threw discretion to the winds and started a passing game, in hope that it might score a touchdown through the aerial route. However, this strategy was disastrous, as River Falls intercepted one of these passes and scored a second touchdown. Siegel and Kykyri were declared ineligible shortly before the game and Horyza and Mestmck were taken out of the game with injuries early in the encounter. This undoubtedly had a great deal to do with Superior's loss. Northland 6; Superior Teachers College 71 The nearest approach to a track meet that the Orange and Black men took part in this year was the Northland game on November 12. After its defeat by River Falls, the Superior team was determined to avenge this loss, and they succeeded admirably. The first team started the game and began to run for touchdowns with monotonous regularity. When this combination got tired. Coach Tubbs inserted his second team, which tried to outdo the first team's accomplishments. This series of runs across the goal line finally came to an end when the game was over, leaving a score of 71 -6 as its result. The year 1927 saw what was probably the most successful football season that the Superior State Teachers College had ever seen. Although the local aggregation lost the final game of the year and the state championship, it showed itself to be a team of hard workers and good players. Perhaps its most outstanding accomplishment of the season was its decisive 31-6 defeat of the Gustavus Adolphus team which later won the championship of the Minnesota College Conference. Furthermore. Superior's overwhelming 57-9 win over Fan Claire and its 28-0 and 26-0 defeats of Stevens Point and Stout show clearly the high caliber of football played by the Orange and Black. The outstanding success of Superior's season is clearly shown by a comparison of scores: Superior 0.. Superior 20.. Superior 31.. Superior 57-Superior 0..

The team this year was captained by Clarence Lctourneau, otherwise known as Frenchy.” 'This was Letourneau’s second year on the varsity, which makes him eligible again next year. Clarence played a stellar game at guard all season, and will be a great help in developing a championship team next year. STANI.KY XADOI.SKI. This was Sty's last year on the varsity. and in school. Sty played his usual steady, consistent game at guard, every low and then dribbling through the whole pposing team to break suddenly and send a perfect shot through the loop. We shall surely miss last year’s captain very greatly next year. He teamed well with Captain Lctourneau. and they kept the opponents' score below ours in most cases. I.KO 1)1 M A It CO. This was I)i Marco’s first year at State Teachers College. He came to us from Duluth Cathedral. For the last two years he has been playing amateur basketball in Duluth, where lie undoubtedly acquired much of his uncanny skill in ringing markers. Leo played a flashy game at left forward. winning the approval of the fans We expect big things of him next year. JOHN .MKSTXICK. Sheni” was our big hope at center this year, and could always be depended on to turn in a good game. Shem had a hard reputation to live up to, coming from Gilbert where he held the all-star center berth. He is coming back next year and we hope to see him all-conference center. KI.I.IOTT COOK. Cook, who cam from Duluth Central, has proved his worth. He was the high scoring man of our team, averaging five baskets a game. He held down a forward berth all season, and more than did it justice. We surely hope he returns next season to aid in the fight for a conference title. JOSKFH HORYZA. Horyzn is another former East High player who has made good on the college five. Joe was available for most any position. but usually played forward or center, and did a good job at either position. |oe will be back next year to help do his bit. and we wish him all the luck in the world. I.KSTKK ST. JOHN. This was Lester’s last year of competition in college basketball. For three seasons he has played his steady, consistent game at standing guard. Alaybe l.es did not have the spectacular ability of a Hotchkiss or Stretch” Murphy, but he was the old reliable. Few indeed were the times when an opposing forward slipped past St. John. U'KSI.KY II KNI HICKSON. Wes Hendrickson's first year on the squad proved that as a basket heaver he was in high class. The records show that for the number of minutes played, Wes averaged as high a score as the best of them. With two years of competition left. horyzx Wes ought to be a very valuable man. Porward or center ST. JOHN Guard TONY NADOI.SKI. Though Tony was spending his first year on the team, he showed that he will very probably follow in the footsteps of his great brother. Whenever a clever, all-around utility man was needed. Tony was ready to step in and do his stuff. The younger Nadol-ski's floor work is very nice and with two more years of experience Tony will be feared by other teams in the conference. XVI 1,1.1AM 1)01.AN.

REQUIREMENTS FOR ADMISSION Any person who has patience enough to stand in registration line and possesses twelve bucks, plus five, seven, or ten more, for the student fund is admitted. WHAT IT COSTS TO ATTEND THIS COLLEGE Plenty! ISO mj(cn ? h 8 tatr ©rarhprn (Enllpgp datalnqur SELF SUPPORT Sometimes our main office succeeds in finding jobs for students. Send in your application early, if you desire a position before college closes for the next summer. Many students find that a great help in self support, is to lean against some immovable body. COLLEGE LOANS FUNDS THE I. (). U. LOAN SCHOLARSHIP.—The loan fund is maintained for the express purpose of helping our students. You sign a note and the money is yours, until we collect. on the Ten Payment Plan. In addition to the above fund, which is devoted exclusively to the students of this institution, the faculty has access to certain other funds,—including the student fund! The surplus left from the student fund at the end of this fiscal year will be used to purchase President Gillett a motor-driven street cleaner, to be used in picking up paper along the halls. COLLEGE ORGANIZATIONS THE BAND According to President Gillett. the band has hopes of becoming a musical organization in the near future. THE ORCHESTRA The orchestra was to appear once this year, but due to the fact that one of the musicians was declared ineligible, the concert had to be postponed. COLLEGE PUBLICATIONS THE PEPTOMIST This semi-annual paper, is not the campus humor sheet, although many students believe it’s a joke. THE GITCHE GUMEE The Gitchc. the college annual, is published by the Senior Class—but it is always edited by underclassmen! (The rest censored) THE ROYAL FLUSH This magazine is barred from the mails—but entered as first class reading matter. It is the humor sheet of the campus rivalling the Police Gazette,” “The Twin City Reporter.” Kansas City Broad Ax.” and The Chicago Defender in scandal; Judge, “Life,” and 'College Humor” in matter of wit; The Atlantic Monthly for depth of thought; The Literary Digest for its capacity to review important worldly events in short order; and Artists and Atodels for illustrations. MISCELLANEOUS The Teachers Colleges of the State issue free to students, textbooks for all classes. After payment of fees, these books may be obtained by standing in line for a couple of hours. Note: If you enroll in Am. Lit., Am. Gov't. Eng. Lit., or Sociology courses, it will not be necessary to withdraw texts, as in these courses the professor’s lectures are identical to the texts. However, if you are indind to sleep in class—which undoubtedly you will in these classes—it is better to read the text first. —151— fJfW yilcrtc Junuj S tatc wearhrrs (Onllriu' (Hatalnyup FOUNTAIN SERVICE For the convenience of its students, free fountain service is maintained at the Superior State Teachers College.

These additions may range chronologically from Miss Thetford’s methodical biological hypothesis that, if it were possible to cross a duck and a polar bear, the offspring would be a desirable amphibian for this section of the country, to Mr. Simpson’s stupendous engineering theory that, although a perilous gigantic project, it is possible to construct a pontoon bridge from the southwestern extremity of the campus to Haney's Castle, thus the ancient moat would pass on into oblivion.

They were conducting a new experiment. The results of which are tabulated below: A NEW ELEMENT: •'WOMAN. SYMBOL, WOW. A member of the human family. OCCURRENCE: Can be found wherever man exists. Seldom occurs in the free or native state. Quality depends on the state in which it is found. With the exception of mass state, the combined state is to be preferred. PHYSICAL PROPERTIES: All colors and sizes. Always appears in disguised condition. Surface of face seldom unprotected by coating of paint or film of powder (composition immaterial). Boils at nothing and may freeze at any moment. However, it melts when properly treated. Very bitter if not treated correctly. CHEMICAL PROPERTIES: Extremely active. Possesses a great affinity for gold, silver, platinum, and precious stones of all kinds. Violent reaction when left alone by men. Ability to absorb all kinds of expensive food at any time. Undissolved by liquids, but activity is greatly increased when saturated with spirit solutions. Sometimes yields to pressure. Turns green when placed next to a better appearing sample. Ages very rapidly. Fresh variety has great magnetic attraction. NOTE: Highly explosive and likely to be dangerous in inexperienced hands. £ tuitiu (Gossip It may Ik of interest to the student body to know that Miss DeWolf and Miss Thet-ford have been creating quite an undignified and unholy fuss over the fact that their office door is not equipped with a lock similar to that of the Gitche office. When one considers the centrality of their situation one hardly blames them. They claim that the place is a regular hang-out for conscientious students of both sexes and faculty members of one. They plead for a more secluded life. We weep for them, but guarantee no assistance. Correct this sentence: Miss MacQuinkin's office is next to the Peptomist office but she doesn't regret it because Mary is a rare disciplinarian. Simpson found a tract in his mailbox one day. one of these admonitory pamphlets which concerned the prohibition amendment. He was very indignant about it. in fact even more indignant about that than he is over the fact that the world neglects sociology in favor of history. However, 'it is no matter and of no significance. They tagged the wrong man. Correct this sentence: The faculty advisor doesn't care what goes into the satire section of the Gitche. — 1ST— Humor EFFICIENT Joe Thayer was the only undertaker in the little town. He was what might be called a forehanded man. One day he met on the street the young son of a citizen who was reported to be at death’s door. “How is yer father this inornin’?” asked Joe. “He’s sinking fast,” said the boy. “Is that so? Poor fellow! By the way. how tall is yer father?” Schreiber (Astronomer): “Nothing has ever been found on Venus.” Miss Rehnstrand: “No—nothing!” Jerry McHugh: “I call my girl seven days—she makes one weak.” Professor Vitz: “Just think, a single Mormon could have as many as ten wives! Professor Simpson: Lord, how many did the married ones have?” Blanche Lindquist: “I’ve been out every night this week with two exceptions.” Belle Bowser: “Who were they?” Geffc: “Say, Coach. I want bigger shoes.” Tubbs: “Those fit, why do you want bigger ones?” Geffe: “So I can cover more ground in the same amount of time.” Walker Greene wishes to state that Elva isn’t his best girl.

Ism _ —150— Hi Eimlulinn of ®hr nrft Sour doubt lias been expressed as to the evolution of species within historic times, and I shall not only try to show that there has been evolution within historic times, but also in the last twenty-five years. The basic idea of evolution is change and the “process of becoming, and who in 1928 A. I), denies that the Ford has not gone thru a process of becoming more becoming year after year? Now, evolution is not brought about by any one method but by a combination: by natural selection, mutations, variations, use and disuse, sexual selection, and transmission of acquired traits (?). Now Henry, a member of the Homo Sapiens species, put together a few wheels, pieces of tin. and internal combustion engine, etc., and created the 11 04 “lizzie (1904. the geological period— lizzie , the form of organism). Now. don't get this wrong—I don’t mean a special creation, for various parts had been evolved before. The carriage had existed before—1 could trace its evolution back to the time when Adam wheeled the hoop, but the horseless carriage was a new thing, and it proved necessary considering the environment. The people were setting a fast pace—every way—so it was natural that we select the lizzie —hence there was natural selection, or as Spencer called it. survival of the fittest. The evolution of the Ford was rapid—but followed the process of mutations rather than by sports. For if the Ford had evolved thru slight variations—sports—it would still be in the embryo stage—but the balloon tires, attached cigarette lighters, etc., prove that it evolved more thru the process of mutaions as postdated by L)e Vries. It is certainly logical that certain parts of the structure should develop by use. and some should fall off by disuse. Bolts, nuts, and screws are wont to fall off—but the writer is of the opinion that this is due to abuse, rather than disuse. Blisters on tires, tappet and bearing knocks, piston slaps, and 53 varieties of rattles are characteristics that develop with use— ask any second-hand Ford owner. The Ford has certainly developed thru sexual selection. Even a fellow working for $12 a week at the Roundhouse buys a 1917 Ford for $29.50 (last year’s license included) in order to enjoy moonlight rides with members of the opposite sex. Demand for secondhand cars increased sale of new cars—increase in sales and profits led to a further improvement in the Ford. Personally. I think that if there was any transmission of acquired traits in the Ford— such as punctures, misfiring, boiling over, wobbling of the wheels, etc.—it was a detriment rather than a blessing. One thing is certain—these traits were handed down to posterity thru the tin?plasm (Weismann). But the Ford is a blue-blooded animal whose heritage cannot be questioned. By all means do not compare it to the High powered Overland, the Bukes. or Kadillac families. They may have been a few misfits and feebleminded—but think of the many geniuses whose unique originality, longevity, never say down traits makes you confirm the statement that insanity borders on genius and vice versa. Now. I don’t believe that Henry has made a lady out of Lizzie —it sounds too anthropomorphic—but she sure has developed physically and ethically—but as for religion this species is still in a condition of pan-tinism. i .a Ahuprttfiing %‘Tlie way, the only way to restore permanent business prosperity to America is to establish permanent peace in the world.” —Honorable John H.

Call Broad 2 fume LEAP YEAR How To Spend the Extra Day Seekers of relaxation or education will find one day approximately the amount of time needed to make an enjoyable and instructive excursion to Minnesota’s famous Mesaba Iron Ore Range. Here is a pleasure trip that can easily be justified on the theory that it will add to the general fund of knowledge. The time necessary for its accomplishment is short and the expense of the trip is nominal whether it be by train, bus or auto. A few hours spent at Hibbing, Virginia, or any of the other interesting points reached by the “Missabe,” will long be remembered, as here may be seen the process of mining Iron Ore by the steam shovel method in the large open pit mines which have made Minnesota famous. Many people living in other states travel hundreds of miles to see this wonder of present day industry. Don't let 75 or 80 miles separate you from this educational treat! The Duluth, Missabe Northern Ry. operates two first-class trains daily, each way, between Duluth and the Mesaba Range, and reduced rate tickets may be purchased at the low rate of a fare and a tenth for the round trip.

I'm tired as I can be Of naked shoulder and bare white knee, Of smudges of powder on my coat, When through jazz dances we madly float; And if I could find some rare dear bird Who of rouge and lipstick never heard. I'd carry her off, with a caveman’s glee, To a place where no one else could see Such a wonderful twentieth century prize— Too precious by far for vulgar eyes! But alas! She comes not to my lair. And sadly I'm seeking her everywhere. A little girl four years old was alone in the nursery with the door closed and fastened when her little brother arrived and expressed a desire to come in. The following was the dialogue: I wants to turn in. Sissy.” But you musn’t turn in. Tom. “But I wants to. Well. I'se in my nightie gown an' nurse says little boys mustn't see little girls in their nightie gowns.” Then there was a period of silence during which the astonished little boy reflected on the mystery. It was ended by Sissy’s calling out: You tin turn in now, Tom—I tooked it off. i Wisconsin Candy Kitchen CANDIES.
