The Tower „ 58 TOWER STOUT STATE COLLEGE MENOMONIE . WISCONSIN f Richord Vogtsberger Editor-in-Chief Patricia Soldner Associate Editor 58 TOWER In the future, reading your Tower will be like having the events of the 1957-1958 school year re-enacted for you. The characters will be the people you have known, the scenes will be the ones you saw yourself. Looking at the articles on the activities of this year, you will see not only what is on the pages but all the things that cannot be depicted or described. To recall them for you is the pur- pose of this book. Planning and preparing the Tow er re- quired the cooperation of the staff, the editors and the advisors. Though they had to work under mounting pressure as deadlines neared, production generally progressed smoothly, and the book was published on schedule. The faculty advisors, the student editors and staff, and the publishers have all had their parts in the production of the book you hold in your hands. They present it to you now — the 1958 Tower. Tower Staff James Kogler Production Editor Loren Johnson Business Manager Elfwyn Hendrickson Literary Editor - Introduction And the narrowest hinge in my hand puts to scorn all machinery . . . Whitman Examine a hand, any hand. It may be large and brawny; it may be small and dainty. The size of the hand does not matter. It remains a won- drously engineered, marvelous- ly constructed mechanism. Rough and untrained, the hand can do little. But train it, guide it; it becomes the in- strument by which man ' s thoughts are translated into deeds. The result may be a simple cake, a suit of clothes, or a majestic building. Each is conceived, then molded by a skilled, trained hand. But it is not possible to divorce the hand from the rest of the body. The body is a union of coordinate parts; no part is subordinate. The count- erpart, then, to the skilled, trained hand is a keen, dis- ciplined mind, a mind which guides and directs the hand in its varied, complex movements. Throughout life, the hand pfays an important role. Whether it is used in the build- ing of a home, a community, or a nation, it is the hand which must lay the foundations of strength and raise the walls of unity. Today, when the union of men ' s minds and hands has caused oceans and continents to be spanned in hours, we realize more than ever the need for colleges like ours — institutions dedicated to the wedding of the human mind and the human hand.

' ■ fck A glimpse of Stout from Lake Menomin The President ' s Message With the conclusion of this college year, the time has come again for another graduating class to leave our campus. As has been true of classes for a good many years, these graduates will enter a variety of occupations in many different localities. Thev carry with them from Stout this yearbook, whose theme is Hands. ' ' Such a motif is an excellent choice, because in their years here our seniors have developed the technical abilities and know-how which will prove so valuable to them in their professional endeavors. But a Stout State College education has made possible much more than technical competence. Almost half of the col- lege credits which each senior has accumulated in four years are in academic or professional education. It was to assure such harmonious balance that each student completed required minors in academic areas. This blending of technical, academic, and professional education is designed to prepare broadly-educated, apperceptive individuals. Such graduates ore competent and eager to accept their full share of responsibility in today ' s complex societv. However, the competence which is now theirs goes beyond the willingness and ability to earn a good living or even to achieve professional prominence, important as these factors mov be. In addition, our a r aduates are capable of appreciating fhe social, economic, and aesthetic environment in which they work and live. Thus another class of graduates leaves Stout State College. The training of their hands is well depicted throughout the Danes of this yearbook. But with them thev carry also the knowledge and attributes of allied academic and professional studies which truly create well-educated individuals. 13 John A.

The Powers That Be The college administration functions un- tiringly in working for the best interest of the college and its students. Specialization in the fields of home economics, industrial ed- ucation, and industrial technology requires training of the students ' hands, eyes, and minds. Although specialized, the liberal ed- ucation curriculum is not neglected. The ad- ministration strives to correlate the specialized professional training of home economics and industrial education with a liberal education. An active personnel service for students functions in multiple channels. Its work, is affiliated with guidance, housing, and occupa- tional placement. Staff members, too, are engaaed in the never-ending stream of activi- ties characteristic of their specific roles in the educational system. They assist in the plan- ning of school activities, and many serve as advisors for the various campus organizations. Aside from its primary interest in campus advancement, the administration must also focus its eyes on other states and adjust its program according to their fluctuating teach- ing requirements. Through constant efforts, the administration is able to revise and add to its curriculum so that it complies with cur- rent demands for keeping Stout State College unique in its field. 14 Keturok Antrim, Ph.M., is Dean of Women.

The alumni corner of The Stoutonia contains vital statistics on graduates — marriages, children, jobs, and alumni meetings. Reminiscing on past fun at school or keeping up with the latest happenings from former classmates usually takes up some of the time when members of the Stout Alumni Association meet. One of the biggest reunions is that held on Homecoming weekend. Regis- tration for all graduates helps to get the activities rolling. Tainter Hall lounge was busy this year with a coffee hour for returning alumni. Many social organizations entertained alumni at breakfasts or suppers. Some of the bigger alumni chapters are in Milwaukee, Madison, Chicago, and Detroit. Chapters elect their own officers and partici- pate in dinner dances, picnics, and occasional smorgasbords. Industrial education movies made at Stout are sometimes shown at meet- ings. Often representatives from the campus try to attend the chapter meetings to give information on Stout happenings. Dr. Barnard brings alumni up to date on the Polaroid camera Dr. Rudiger assists Betty Hovlik in reproducing alumni information 33 Scholastic Nearing completion on a woodworking project is Al Wolfe industrial education Builders for Tomorrow Industrial education and industrial tech- nology are the two major fields offered to men at Stout. Industrial education prepares the student for teaching in his major field and for supervisory work in all phases of education. Industrial technology curriculum teaches students new advancements in tech- nological areas and prepares them to enter industry. Mathematics, calculus, and a num- ber of courses in physics and chemistry are in- cluded in the curriculum for those students who enter industrial technology. The curricu- lum for industrial education majors includes many education courses preparing the stu- dent for effective teaching. Academic sub- jects include English, social science, math- ematics, and science; they comprise nearly one half of the credits required for graduation in the education field. The program for all freshman men is the same and is directed toward basic preparation and general technics. During the sophomore, junior, and senior years, the students receive the necessary specialized training. Seniors graduating in industrial technology receive many high-salaried positions in industry, personnel work, supervisory positions, drafting, and engineering, while industrial education graduates secure jobs teaching in high schools, vocational schools, and colleges.

Coeds fulfilling college requirements receive Bachelor of Science degrees with a major in Home Economics, Home Economics Education, or Vocational Education. A degree requires forty semester hours of home eco- nomics courses and one twenty-hour or two fifteen-hour minors. After this year, one hun- dred twenty-eight semester hours will be neces- sary for graduation. The curricula meet the standards for teachers ' licenses and certifica- tion by the American Dietetics Association. A new home equipment laboratory allows students to specialize in consumer information studies, and expanded facilities provide train- ing centers for those interested in home service positions. Women preparing for food service work receive some of their training in the Tainter Hall kitchen and tea room. Freshmen receive a general background in home economics and academic courses. In the following three years, students enroll in courses to prepare for their particular professional interest. Teaching methods and psychology especially aid education majors; foods and service courses prove most rewarding to prospective dietitians and institution managers.

Depart- ments are maintained in education and psy- chology, English, speech, science and math- ematics, social sciences, physical education, and music. From the courses offered, a stu- dent may select one twenty hour or two fifteen hour minors. The following academic subjects must be completed by both men and women before graduation: speech, freshman English, and expository writing in the speech and English departments; and chemistry. Two years of physical education are also required. Many courses are available for those who wish to pursue professional curricula. Students may draw on departmental offerings throughout the college for courses which will be accepted by other colleges and universities as training in pre-professional areas. These courses cover a wide variety of areas, such as dentistry, commerce, education, engineering, journal- ism, law, liberal arts, medicine, nursing, and social work. Do you hove that in your notes?

Following the coronation ceremony, the band led a torch-light parade to the fairgrounds where the queen and her court were reintro- duced. Members of Queen Gerry ' s court were Dora Aramori, Diane Davis, and Jeanne Machel. This year the traditional bonfire was replaced by the huge burning letters spelling La X, symbolizing the opposing team. Climaxing the evening, a mixer was held in the Stout gym. Saturday ' s festivities began with break- fasts and teas sponsored by various organiza- tions. One of the highlights of the Home- coming weekend for the alumni was the dinner honoring the classes of 1932 and 1947. In the colorful Homecoming parade, the Delta Zeta sorority entry, Orchids to Our Team, was judged most beautiful. Tied for first place in keeping with the theme, Toss La Crosse for a Loss, were floats entered by the Delta Kappa fraternity and by the sophomore class. Stout played host to La Crosse for Satur- day ' s Homecoming game. Although Stout lost the game, enthusiastic fans enjoyed a full afternoon of football.

Jim Jonen is the director of the Union, which is operated entirely by the students. The project furnishes part-time jobs for about twenty-five students. Any profits are used to buy new equipment and to re- place old equipment. Intramural sports, athletic practice, and social functions take place in the first floor gymnasium. On weekends the swimming pool is open to all students; two bowling alleys are also available. The lounge on the second floor provides television and cards. A snack bar is convenient for students who want a quick lunch at noon or a snack between classes. In the recreation room there are facilities for pool and table tennis. Plans have been made for a new student Union to be located between the library and the present Union. The two buildings will be linked by a breezeway. The swimming pool will still be used and the other rooms will be converted into club rooms. On the first floor of the new Union there will be a snack bar, game room, hobby room, and television view- ing room. Most of the area on the second floor will be devoted to a ballroom and a center for use by large gatherings. Con- ference rooms, office space, and additional lounges are also planned.

Although the dance itself lasts only one eve- ning, the juniors put much effort and advance planning into it. The theme is chosen from those submitted in an all-school contest, the winner being awarded two free Prom tickets. Plans are made and committees set up to convert an idea into a reality. Engaging an orchestra and planning publicity, decorations, and refreshments are some of the arrange- ments that must be made. The high school gymnasium is decorated the day before the dance. The following night it becomes a mass of gay colors and happy faces as Prom-goers catch its festive spirit. May 4 was the date of the 1957 junior Prom; Moonlight Cocktail, the theme. Setting the mood was a giant cocktail glass backdrop for the throne, while one side of the gym was transformed into a garden. Punch was served from an ice punch bowl set on a table shaped like a cocktail glass. About one hundred twenty-five couples danced to the music of Bob Leighton ' s orchestra. Parties and dinners held by various organiza- tions before and after the dance added to the evening ' s festivities. ■ 3b Prom-goers pause for refreshments Ruby Dietsche serves, as KazukiyO Kuboyamo and friend take time out for punch Prom K.P. crew — Jermaine Folkman and Joan Wonoski 57 Deep in conversation — Marilyn VerHaagh, Steve Saxton, and Ronald Knappen Dorm Life Stout men register at Tainter Hall open house Rita Bohmon relaxes with Donald Vassou KQ i0 9 I in the lounge Faculty members relax at on informal get-together Mrs. Sims checks for open house A moment for musical relaxation r 59 Social Life Alpha Sigmos proclaim Sadie Hawkins week Sylvia Repeal and Mary Price greet Bob Scheele at the dormitory open house Jean Sprain and Dianne McKinnon examine Winter Carnival beards Winter Cornival cardboard sliding demands skill of its participants 1 Home Economics club members provide atmosphere for the Christmas teo Students bring blankets to ward off the cold of Winter Carnival 61 JoAnn Schoemer and Jim Phelan dcnce ot the Bermuda Blast Social Life 62 Will Foster provides befween-skit laughter at Stunt Night .-•■- ' ■: Wonderful weather for a sleigh rids A wintry day of sledding — result, students with cold faces The F.O.B.s get together 63 Steve Saxton accompanies Rich Vogtsberger at Stunt Night Small House of Uncle Thomos Tri Sigma sorority Social Life Indian Summer comes to life as punch is served to Ron Critser and Dick Kveton by Karen Rambc 64 Winter Carnival Queen JoAnn Schoemer speaks to the shivering students As po ond mo, Ruth Hongortner and Barb Bender come to town 65 Social Life The Four Freshmen — Jerry Fisher, Dole Soderberg, Glenn Nichols, gnd John Pel to Tonya Schmitz helps Santa distribute gifts Helen Russell, Coroltne Greinke, and Roberto Kurth get set for a pizza snock What can happen to on innocent bystonder — DKs Basketball fans catch a breath of fresh air between halves of a game Upperclassmen accept their numbers as they register for a new semester Lucretia Ebbott reads the Sadie Hawkins week proclamation Fraternity pledges lead the Homecoming torch-light parade to the fairgrounds Commencement All share the joy of a new graduate Two seniors try on their caps and gowns 70 commencement The Goal Attained On May 31 the goal of qraduation was fulfilled for the class of ' 58. Commencement exercises brought to a close four years of diligent studying, close school friendships, and wholesome fun that began when class members unpacked their trunks in the fall of their freshman year. As freshmen these students became the last to enroll in Stout Institute. Stout ' s first freshman formal — now a tradition — was sponsored by this class. The excitement of the junior Prom, centered around the theme, Moonlight Cocktail, will long be remembered; Jim Jonen and Barbara Taylor led the royal court. The senior year passed quickly. Practice teaching proved to be an invaluable experience for many of the seniors. They were soon involved in preparations for commencement with its whirl of teas, parties, and farewell dinners Besides making numerous academic achievements, the seniors contributed time and effort to all of the campus organizations. The seniors realize that their many campus activities have only supplemented their oca demic and technical achievements. They know that their course work has prepared them foi life after graduation; that their four year training at Stout has provided a sound basis for either further training or for academic or technical positions.

The first big college event they participated in was Homecoming. They got off to a good start by building a huge bon- fire and a float. It was the class of ' 58 that held the first freshman formal, which is now a traditional spring event. During their sophomore year, they kept busy with Homecoming activities, especially with decorating the football field and with decorating Main street in Menomonie. In their junior year, the class sponsored a beautiful prom with the theme Moonlight Cocktail. The spirit of the class was seen in the way it worked to make this event the success it was. Throughout the four years at Stout, many of the class women were chosen to reign over various campus events. During their four years class members saw many changes and improvements. When they returned to school at the beginning of their sophomore year, Stout Institute had become Stout State College. They also witnessed the razing of Tainter Hall and Tainter Annex. Later, during their senior year, they viewed with interest the building of the new Tainter Hall and the expansion of this new dormitory. The class also has had a hand in the future of Stout in helping with the plans for the new student union. As seniors the class participated in their final activities at Stout State College and enjoyed them all. With the start of their senior year they welcomed the freshmen, as they had been welcomed their freshman year, by an all-school picnic. Homecoming again found them welcoming the alumni back at their registration booth in Harvey Hall. Their last week at Stout the senior students were guests of honor at many activities, including the honors convocation, the spring pic nic, the commencement ball, teas, parties, and farewell dinners. Memories of this senior year and their other years at Stout will live within the class always. These memories and the knowledge they have gained here will together form the foundation of their lives.

The class entered a float in the Homecoming parade- Under the direction of Rita Casey and Roy Sveivan, the entire class rolled up their sleeves and put forth their greatest effort to make the Homecoming dance a success. They chose the theme, Indian Summer, and carried it through with streamers of fall colors, shocks of corn, and park benches placed about the high school gymnasium. Refreshments were served from a tepee at one end of the gym; another tepee with a bonfire completed the novel theme. During the Christmas dance the juniors served punch. They also sponsored a can- didate, Eddie Birch, for the Ugly Man on Campus contest, and a queen candidate, Eleanor Genal, for the Mardi Gras. Members of the class participated in the Winter Carnival by entering a snow carving in the contest. Plans were well under way by the middle of winter for the much anticipated spring Prom. Bo Brown and Ken Dickie led the juniors in working out the Moments. The high school decorated in keeping with story. At the far end of the gym, an impressive castle dominated the scene. Punch was served next to a fairy tale coach. The class introduced a new idea which received very favorable comment. The Rhythmaires and the Larry Woodbury orchestras, at opposite sides of the gym, presented dancers with continuous music throughout the evening. The spring Prom was, indeed, a magic moment to remember. Juniors took charge of the decorations for the dance following the annual spring picnic. Plans for the all-school picnic next fall are already under way. The class is in charge of this annual affair where new and old class- mates have an opportunity to get together. The success of this past year was due both to the many excellent and able leaders m the junior class and to the wholehearted participation of the members of the class. They now enter their senior year, hoping to make it a year to be remembered by both themselves and the underclassmen. theme, Magic gymnasium was the Cinderella H.

Deanna Grzybowski graces the junior float Gloria Walstad and Gerry Krueger encounter difficulties with their cardboard sled Juniors 89 sophomore class Return to Studies When the sophomores returned to the campus for registration in the fall, they found responsibilities awaiting them. Studies were barely begun when organization and prepara- tion got underway for an early Homecoming. Faced with the task of decorating the city and the football field for the event, the sophomores tackled their obligation with en- thusiasm. Lampposts along the Main Street of Menomonie bore large white footballs lettered in blue. These footballs featured the names and numbers of each Stout player. Posters announced the many events of interest for the weekend. Fans attending the football game saw large painted figures attached to the wall on the opponent ' s side of the field; crepe paper decorated the goal posts. Toss La Crosse for a Loss ' the sopho- more float, was entered in parade competition under the category of most in keeping with the theme. Atop a wagon, committee workers erected a large salad bowl and oversized recipe book- During the parade, the ingre- dients listed on the pages of the book were combined in the bowl by several girls wielding huge wooden spoons. The finished product was to be a victory over La Crosse; the float tied for first place. At the same time the fraternities and sororities on campus held rushing parties and ultimately chose the larger portion of their pledges from the sophomore men and women. Passing months brought Yuletide festiv- ities and another duty — decorating the small gym for the Christmas dance. Working with the theme, Sugar Plum Dreams, the sopho- mores constructed a red-and-white-striped canopy under which George Soderberg ' s Royal Blackhawks played. Giant-sized candy canes, cupcakes, and suckers decorated three walls; a mural of scenes at the north pole occupied the fourth wall. Soon after the first semester ended, preparations for the Winter Carnival were begun. Besides joining in the other festivities, games, and programs, the sophomores entered an ice carving in the annual contest. Their two snowball worms depicted A Wormy Romance.

After filling out application blanks and wait- ing for replies, all frosh were eager to begin- Registration, which involved long hours of standing in line and filling out dozens of forms, got class members off to a hectic start. Among activities given to acquaint the new freshmen with each other and the school were a scavenger hunt, an all-college mixer, and tours of the various departments of the school The regular routine of everyday college life was a welcome change after the hustle and bustle of orientation week. Homecoming was the first big college event for the freshmen, and it brought much enthusiasm from the class members. Accord- ing to tradition, freshmen are given the task of building the bonfire. Instead of the usual big bonfire, huge letters representing Stout ' s opponent, La Crosse, were erected and burned. Building the letters and collecting the rags to wrap around them were big jobs for the freshmen, but after seeing the final results, all were pleased with their efforts. We Can- Can La Crosse, the class entry in the Home- coming parade, was a novelty float with huge paper napkin cancan skirts. The Christmas season was brightened by an all -school dance. The season was also highlighted by a party for all freshmen given by the men at Lynwood Hall. An all-school formal was given by the freshman class on March 29. A queen was chosen from the class to reign over the dance, and the orchestra of Johnny Roberts provided the music- Nearly all members of the class helped to make the affair a success. It was a dance that will be remembered by all as one of the happiest events their freshman year. With the close of their first year at Stout, freshmen can look back at all the new friends they have made, the good times they have had, and the knowledge they have gained. And the class can look forward to the next three years which hold the promise of many more happy memories.

Freshmen admire their winning snow sculpture 99 graduate studies For Further Knowledge Stout ' s present graduate program began with the first Master ' s degree issued in 1938. A Master of Science degree is obtainable in home economics, home economics education, vocational education, and industrial educa- tion. Graduate students are prepared primarily for positions as teachers in secondary schools. A split program is functioning so that any undergraduate who will graduate at the end of a given semester without carrying a full lood may enroll in graduate studies. The Master ' s degree is obtainable from the college by one of two plans. Plan A consists of a detailed study and written thesis for six semester hours credit. Plan B involves thirty semester hours course work plus a research paper written in conjunction with a graduate course Under either plan, a total of thirty semester hours is necessary for a Master of Science degree. In place of regular semester sessions, many students earn their degrees by attending summer session. Attendance at summer ses- sions consists largely of graduate students seeking their Master ' s degrees. A post-session allows them to carry eight credits instead of the regular six credits per summer. Demands for educators with the Master ' s advanced preparation is growing. Whether one enters graduate school immediately fol- lowing graduation or whether he returns after years of teaching, the professional advance- ment gained is worth the time and energy exerted by the student.

And a baptism it was; the entire game was played in a steady downpour. The combination of rain and Winona Warriors was too much for the untried Blue Devils in the first half, the end of which found Stout trailing 13-0. In the second half, however, the situation was reversed. The Stout line hit hard, causing six fumbles and recover- ing five of them. Two of these fumbles were turned into touchdowns. Freshman halfback Glenn Harke raced 45 yards for one score and 17 yards for another. Stout ' s other touchdown was a four-yard plunge by Elroy Wicklund. Harke kicked two extra points, and the Blue Devils came home with a 20-13 win. In its first conference game, the team beat its arch rival, Eau Claire, 20-0. This was Stout ' s first football victory over the Blue Golds since 1951. Stout ' s first two touch- downs come as direct results of blocked punts. Bruce Eland scored the first touchdown on a pass from Joe O ' Leary, and Jack O ' Reilly tallied the second as he picked off one of the blocked kicks and raced thirty-five yards to pay dirt. The final points were rung up on a two-yard smash by Harke. For their next game, the Blue Devils traveled to River Falls, returning on the short end of a 20-6 score. The Falcons scored once in the second quarter and twice in the third, whereas Stout was able to tally only in the third quarter when guard Jim Nadeau inter- cepted a Falcon pass and romped 43 yards to the goal line. It was La Crosse at Menomonie for Stout ' s Homecoming game. The pre-game ceremonies failed to instill the necessary spark in the team, and Stout dropped its second game, 30-6. Fumbles hurt Stout on five occasions when the Indians recovered the ball. However, the Blue Devils played the entire game with- out a single penalty being assessed against them, whereas La Crosse lost 80 yards be- cause of violations. Scoring with the game only four and a half minutes old, the Indians went on to hold a 23-0 halftime lead. Stout ' s only score came in the third stanza on a pass play from Wicklund to Harke.

The favored Quakers were un able to score, but as they kept the Blue Devils from the goal line, too, the game ended in a scoreless tie. Superior ' s Yellow Jackets hosted the Blue Devils for the final conference game. They dropped Stout to ninth place with a 20-12 score. Superior tallied first on a long drive in the initial quarter, but the Blue Devils bounced back to tie the score when Harke took a screen pass from O ' Leary and galloped into the end zone. Doug Rohrbacher capped a Blue Devil drive in the last quarter with a five yard plunge, but by then Superior had put the game on ice. In their next game, Stout emerged with an 8-0 win over the Lumberjacks of North- land College. Both teams played on even terms throughout the game with a touchdown in the final minutes of play clinching it for the Blue Devils. In the second quarter, Stout managed to get the Lumberjacks into a kick- ing situation deep in Northland territory. Dick Tepp broke through the line and blocked the attempted punt. The ball rolled out of the end zone for an automatic safety and the Blue Devils led 2-0. From then until the last quarter, the game was a battle of defenses. Bob McNaughton romped around end for five yards and six points to climax a forty yard drive, and the scoring was over. 106 SH Lo Crosse fumbles — O ' Leory, Brehm, Tepp, and Feller eye the boll Battling through a rainy, dreary night in the final game of the season, Stout came out on the short end of a 31-0 score in a contest with the Duhawks of Loras College from Dubuque, Iowa. The ground attack of the Duhawks proved to be the deciding factor. Stout ' s attack sputtered and misfired, slipped and stalled, and finally bogged down com- pletely. Thus the 1957 season closed on the sour note of loss instead of on the sweet taste of victory. Stout ' s over-all record was three wins, four losses, and one tie. In conference play, however, the Blue Devils finished ninth in the ten team race. Freshman halfback Glenn Harke was team high scorer with thirty-two points on five touchdowns and two extra points. A touch- down and two conversions for a total of eight points put Bruce Eland second in team scor- ing. In all, the Blue Devils collected 72 points while their opponents garnered 114. The Blue Devils placed two men on the northern section ' s all-conference team. Center Dick Tepp was honored for the second straight year. Guard Jim Nadeau was also selected for the team this year. Nadeau was further honored when the Blue Devils voted him the team ' s most valuable player. Tackle Bill Kindschy was elected captain for the 1958 team. With all the starting line except Nadeau, Tepp, and Ernie Oyama returning next year, look for on improved Blue Devil team in 1958.

They can be proud of the fine support they received from the fans. This season had the best turn- out of the past several years. Stout started the season by losing to St. Mary ' s College 80-53. This staggering defeat must have spurred the team as they went on to win the next four non-conference qames. In the first conference game the Blue Devils played against Eau Claire, who controlled the game and won by an 80-70 score. The next game was one to be remem- bered by all the fans. After leading St. Cloud by 49-47 at half-time. Stout won the game by a close score of 99-96. Just before Christ- mas vacation, the team traveled to Superior and was downed by the Yellow Jackets. Returning from vacation, the Blue Devils received their third straight conference set- back as La Crosse defeated them 93-78. Edging Oshkosh 80-75, the team posted its first conference win one week later. Keith Moessner highlighted this game by netting thirty-three Doints, the highest individual scoring for Stout during the season. The following week the team journeyed to River Falls where they beat the Falcons 75-67. Defeating Winona 81-69 in their next contest, the Blue Devils hit seventy-seven percent of their field goals. Eau Claire again proved too much for the Blue Devils as thev won another conference game from Stout. The following weekend the team suffered another loss at the hands of the Superior Yellow Jackets. This game was hiahlighted by the brilliant playing of Brian Howard, who scored thirtv-one points and controlled the backboards for Stout. Later this game was forfeited to Stout. The second game against Winona pave Stout its second and last non -conference loss 71-59. Dropping a close 93-86 game to Stevens Point, the Blue Devils again lost the following night to Platteville. Stout later beat Milwaukee by an impressive score of 93-78. The following weekend the Blue Devils traveled to La Crosse and lost a close contest 85-73.

A single by River Falls; Pagel behind the plate baseball 1957 ' Round the Diamond Stout ' s 1957 baseball team was a hot and cold team. When the team was hitting, the pitchers were off; when the pitchers came through, the hitting was off. In the one game that everything worked, the Blue Devils gained their only victory, a 10-2 win over La Crosse. Proof of Stout ' s offensive power is indicated by the St. Cloud games in which the team collected a total of 24 hits and 1 1 runs. Here, however, the pitchers fell down and St. Cloud won both. As a team the Blue Devils batted .266, with second baseman Dick Klaers leading scorer with a .538 average. Following him were catcher Tom Pagel with .429 and three outfielders, Jim Sand, Don Feyereisen, and Bob Wilund, with .300 apiece. Some of the brightest spots of the year for Stout were defensive plays by the outfielders. From Stout ' s point of view, the saddest games of the season were the first Winona and the second Eau Claire games. Going into the last inning the Blue Devils led Winona 4-2. They succeeded in retiring the first two batters, but never did get the third out, as the Warriors pushed across three runs to win 5-4. In the Eau Claire game, Stout netted only two hits, losing 20-0.

Johnson, and his intramural coordinator, Harry Miller. The intramural program here at Stout is one of the finest intra-school athletic programs in the state. This year about 80% of the men on campus participated in one or more of the scheduled athletic tournaments. Students were able to select their sport from the following list: football; softball; basketball, with a separate free throw contest- bowling; volleyball; table tennis; badminton; horseshoe pitching; swimming; angling; and rifle and shotgun shooting. In basketball, sixteen teams, eight in an American league and eight in a National league, played a regular seven game schedule with other teams in their league. A postseason play-off for the school championship and an all-star game between the two conferences ended the basketball season. In other sports, the schedule was such that every team played the other teams at least once, and more often when time permitted. The only restrictions placed on the players are that they must be enrolled at Stout and must not have won a varsity letter in the sport in which they intend to play.

Time out for coffee at a football game A.P.O. entry in the Homecoming parade alpha phi omega Active in Scouting Installed on campus in 1949 as Eta Kappa chapter, Alpha Phi Omega fraternity is composed of members who are or have been affiliated with the Boy Scouts. One organiza- tion aim is to serve the student body and the faculty. Stout boasts a neater appearance because of the placing and maintaining of waste cans about the campus. Many students have found missing articles at the lost and found department established by A.P.O. By refilling shop first aid kits, A.P.O. members again benefited fellow students. A new project of the organization, the Ugly Man on Campus contest, provided funds for a scholarship for a Stout student. Votes were tabulated by counting the number of coins students and faculty members contributed. A.P.O. members judged and organized skiing and swimming activities and conducted the annual Kite Flying derby for Menomonie Cub Scouts. At athletic events, Alpha Phi assisted students by finding seating places, punching tickets, and giving out programs. The fraternity also offered a card laminating service for Stout students. Although it is o service organization Alpha Phi Omega participated in social activities. An ice carving was entered in the Winter Carnival, and a skit was presented on Stunt Night. Members also held on initiation banquet and a picnic.

Delivering birthday cakes to freshman dormitory residents upon request of their parents was a new project started by Phi U. The weekly Phi U bulletin board, a textile box sent to any Stout graduate upon request, clothing sent to an Indian mission, and a scholarship given to a freshman girl are annual projects of the f raternity. Making recipe files to be put in both home manage- ment houses was undertaken by Phi U. Fall initiation this year was combined with the biennial national inspection. At the ban- quet following this initiation, Soedji Latifah, an Indonesian student on campus, was guest speaker. Phi U Salutes the United Nations was the theme for this banquet. At Christmas time, Phi U held its annual caroling party. Phi Upsilon Omicron members celebrated their Founder ' s day on February 10. A special program high-lighted that evening ' s meeting, and club members wore traditional yellow roses. Joint meetings with Epsilon Pi Tau and the Home Economics club were included in the yeor ' s professional meetings. The spring party for club members and alumnae, a tea, and the senior farewell banquet completed the year for Phi Upsilon Omicron. Phi U ' s meet for dinner in the Stout tearoom Providing birthday cakes to freshman students was a new project this year chi lambda The Mardi Gras Chi Lambda is a local social fraternity organized to foster the social and moral values of its members, to create a strong bond of brotherhood among them, and to contribute to the wholesome growth of extra-curricular activities on campus. With these objectives in mind, the fraternity proceeded with its year of active participation in school events. Dinner meetings were held once a month with various types of entertainment provided by the social chairman. Various activities were undertaken by the Chi Lambda fraternity throughout 1957-1958. This year ' s work began in September with the sponsoring of a street dance. At Home- coming time, members were busy planning and erecting a float for the parade. A new school activity was added to Chi Lambda ' s list of undertakings this year. A Mardi Gras dance was held just before the beginning of Lent. The dance followed the traditional theme, with decorations helping to create the characteristic New Orleans touch. The crown- ing of the Mardi Gras Princess, Patricia Choitz, was a climax to the dance festivities. Members of Chi Lambda were also on hand to participate in intramural sports on campus. This year ' s Chi Lambda dinner dance was held on May 16; dinner dance dates were pre- sented with favors by the fraternity members.

The group ' s objectives are much the same as those of the former Hyperion sorority, now replaced by Delta Zeta. The first social activity of the organization was a picnic held at Riverside park. Home- coming arrived soon after school started. Delta Zeta won first prize in the parade for its most beautiful float, Orchids to Our Team. On October 24, the sorority celebrated its Founder ' s day. Another highlight for the sorority was initiation, followed by a banquet. As one of their annual projects the girls stuffed animal toys and sent them with Christmas greetings to the mentally retarded children at the Northern Colony. The sorority members also made a chapter donation to Galludet College for the Deaf and Dumb. One of the money-making projects of the sorority was the Halloween Black Cat Swing. Another dance sponsored by Delta Zeta was the spring Scotch Hop. In March, Ye Olde Heidelberg tea added spice to the school social life. Other activities participated in were Win- ter Carnival and F.O.B. Stunt Night. The dinner dance held in May was one of the last sorority events. A senior farewell dinner concluded sorority activities for the year.

Duffy ' s Tavern business keeps bartenders busy Alumni have their fun! V phi omega beta Stunt Night Antics Just o little bit different from the other dances — that ' s what everyone says about Duffy ' s Tavern. This annual fall event marked the entrance of the Phi Omega Beta fraternity into active participation in Stout ' s social life. The Biggest Little Band played during the evening; dancers paused now and then for a glass of cider at the bar. Homecoming arrived, and with it, first prize for the most humorous parade entry. Fall pledging was held just before Homecoming. Pledges were easily dis- tinguished by the white T-shorts, bow ties, and bright black derbies they wore. The fraternity entered the first Ugly Man on Campus contest and won. This, of course, is no indication that the members of F.O.B. are ugly, as all contestants wore masks. The annual F.O.B. Milk Bar was held early in the spring. Many of the organizations on campus participated in the F.O.B. Stunt Night to help make it one of the biggest nights of the year. As in former years, the Phi Sig-F.O.B. grudge hockey game was held during the Winter Carnival. Fraternity members partici- pated in intramural sports and showed further interest in athletics by giving a one-hundred dollar scholarship to an incoming freshman who shows athletic promise. 126 sigma tau gamma Winter ' s First Formal New pledges and Homecoming activities started a busy year for Sigma Tau Gamma. During pledging season, Sig Tau pledges could be easily recognized by their traditional swords, helmets, and blue and white shields. The active members held a banquet honoring the pledges when they had completed their requirements. Homecoming found the Sig Taus busy with their float. The fraternity members also honored returning alumni at a Homecoming breakfast. November 9 was the date for the Rose dance, the all-school formal which starts the winter social season. Dianne McKinnon reigned as the Rose of Sigma Tau; her at- tendants were Jean Hoffman and Cynthia Ebert. To celebrate the Christmas holidays, the fraternity held a banquet and party. The fraternity also sponsored a smoker for fresh- man men durinq the second semester. In October Sigma Tau Gamma sponsored a dance with music by Les Elgart, one of the better known dance bands in this area. The dance, held in the high school gymnasium, was a new project; fraternity members worked hard to make it successful. Another Sig Tau- sponsored activity was the Ghost dance. Mem- bers also treated their dates to a pre-prom dinner in the spring. At the end of the year, the Sig Taus held a fraternity picnic. 8ruce Olander and Ken Held examine a mug Bill McKinnon, Mr. Arneson, and Don Hoffman glance over the agenda for the coming year FRONT ROW: Robert Swanson, Advisor; John Kasten, Secretary; Darrel Ebert, President; Donold Hoffman, Vice President; Allan FPnnell Treasurer; Thomas Rosenthal; Herman Arneson, Advisor.

Jomes Traxel and Keith Koch put final touches on a project stout typographical society Service in Printing The Stout Typographical Society is a unique service organization. It is through the efforts of the S.T.S. that individuals and clubs obtain the printed material they need. The society product most familiar to the stu- dent is the Stout stationery, printed and sold by S.T.S. members. New members of the society may be easily recognized. They are found about the campus each semester in printers ' attire, complete with shop aprons and printed caps. After the new printer joins the society, he receives the bronze key of an apprentice. After doing a considerable amount of tech- nical study and having exhibited his pro- ficiency, he advances to the position of jour- neyman and is entitled to the silver key. The printer with higher aspirations may event- ually earn the degree of master printer, sym- bolized by a gold key. The S.T.S. open house marked the observance of National Printing Education week. Visitors were conducted through the printing department. Society members enjoyed visiting many of the araphic arts industries and paper mills of the Fox River valley on their annual field trip this spring. All of the printers had an oppor- tunity to learn new facts about printing and allied industries. S.T.S. concluded its eventful year with the Wazygoose, the printers ' an- nual picnic.

Keith Koch conducts a study of light and shadow arts and crafts Cards and Paddles For the person interested in leather work- ing, wood working, metals, plastics, or ce- ramics, the Arts and Crafts club is the ideal organization Members have ample opportu- nities to work on any project which they choose within these areas. As hobbies can become quite time-consuming, anyone wishing to become a member must have maintained a 1.5 grade point average at Stout for ot least one semester. One interesting feature of the initiation is a wooden paddle on which the initiate must obtain the signatures of all active members. Thus, the member-elect be- comes better acquainted with other members. The dub held its seventh annual card party in January. Another important money making project was selling Homecoming buttons. Arts and Crafts club presents awards based on a point system; the number of points given depends on quality of workmanship d splayed, amount of time and work required, and demonstrations and iectures given. After a stipulated number of points has been earned, the member is given the organization ' s highest award, a silver key. Arts and Crafts ctub culminated the year ' s act ' vities with its annual p ' cnic. Through the club ' s activities, members learned many new skills and acquired interesting and creative h obbies which will provide enjoyment for years to come. Refreshments are tops after an evening of cards 129 The Royal Blackhawks provide music at the Panhellenic ball panhellenic council Uniting Sororities Stout State College ' s Panhellenic Council, in affiliation with the National Panhellenic Congress, is an organization designed to promote sorority life on campus. It strives to develop close cooperation among Stout ' s four social sororities, Panhellenic membership is comprised of two delegates from each sorority, the sorority president plus an elected member from each sorority. One of the first Panhellenic activities this year was a fall rushing party following the theme, Backwards. The party acquainted eligible women with the various sororities. A second rushing party was held in the spring for freshmen and transfer students. So You Want to Know About Sororities, on infor- mation sheet distributed t o all freshmen women and potential rushees, was a new project of the council. During Parents ' weekend, the council sponsored a tea for mothers of Stout athletes. As in other years, the Panhellenic Christmas ball was a social highlight for sorority members and their escorts. Decorations depicted the theme of Christmas Fantasy. Panhellenic Council is an example of the successfully combined efforts of Stout ' s social sororities functioning as a single unit. Pan- hellenic ' s degree of success is measured by its many activities and contributions toward campus sorority life.

Selling Kangaroos A highly organized association of Stout State College coeds is the Women ' s Recreation Association, Courtesy, fair play, and good sportsmanship are encouraged; club members are stimulated to play for the enjoyment of playing, rather than only for the tangible rewards of such participation. The club is so named because it includes many activities which are classified as recreational rather than as athletic. Some of the club-sponsored social activities included a gymjam, a treasure hunt, a picnic, a scavenger hunt, a Christmas party, and a spring tea. Volleyball, basketball, and bowling seem to be the most popular athletic activities. Comparatively new sports included this year were aerial tennis-dart and deck tennis. Play- offs were held periodically, and a champion- ship team was selected in each intramural sport. W.R.A. offers three awards for sports participation, the highest being a blue and white letter S. To earn a letter, a woman must accumulate a certain number of organized and unorganized points. She must also earn points to receive the smaller W.R.A. awards — an emblem and a pin. W.R.A. is not subsidized by the college, but is entirely self-supporting. Two of the most profitable money-making endeavors are selling hot dogs and barbecues at all home football games, and selling the stuffed official college pet, Leaping Lena the Kangaroo.

Students crowd around the S Club booth during intermission Club members promote their products s club Elephants and Smelt Official lettermen ' s association of Stout State College is the S club. Membership in the dub is limited to major letter winners in varsity sports and to men cheerleaders. The club sponsored many different activities dur- ing the college year- Among these were Dad ' s day, the intramural program, the S club carnival, a smelt fry, a White Elephant sale, and Awards day. Dad ' s day is the day during the football season when the parents of the football team, particularly the fathers, are honored. Dads are feted at a banquet and have special seats at the football game. Perhaps the most widely- known activity sponsored by the S club is the intramural program. Various campus organizations compete for top honors in a variety of sports tournaments. During the course of the year, the club also puts on a carnival. This is a festive occasion with all the gaiety and excitement of a midway, complete with barkers, decora- tions, and a gala atmosphere. In the spring, the S club sponsors three major events. The first is a smelt fry. The next is the White Elephant sale, a spot for bargain hunters. The climax of the club ' s intramural program is Athletics Award day. Varsity letters, repre- senting the efforts of the varsity sports players, are also awarded in conjunction with this program. T 1 4 m 135 Gateway to Heaven ' alpha sigma alpha Action in Stoutpatch Members of the Alpha Sigma Alpha soror- ity, easily identified by their white blazers with red insignias embroidered on the pockets, began art eventful year by sponsoring the Bermuda Blast, a dance to which fellows brave enough to wear Bermuda shorts were admitted free. Another fall activity was the annual rushing party with Earth Angel as its theme. Homecoming at Stout kept sorority members busy as they constructed a float, sold mums, and campaigned for Gerry Krueger, a sorority member. Gerry later was selected as the 1957 Homecoming queen. Corsages of white and yellow mums were worn by Alpha Sigmas as they observed their 56th anniversary on Founder ' s day, Novem- ber 15. It is said that in the spring a young man ' s fancy lightly turns to thoughts of love; the women of Alpha Sigma decided they wanted action, not thoughts. To solve their problems they proclaimed a Sadie Hawkins week. The fellows of Stoutpatch, U.S.A., took iife easy while the girls did the courting. After a candy sale and Valentine tea, Sadie Hawkins week was climaxed by a dance. Graduating women of the sorority attended the Senior Hum held in their honor. A dinner dance at the Menomonie Country club con- cluded a successful year for the sorority. Jolly ASAs hove fun building their snow sculpture FRONT ROW: Mary E. Kill ion.

' Disk jockeys offer their assistance at the Tacky Drag Who ' s the tackiest dressed of all? delta kappa A Tacky Affair One of the highlights for the Delta Kappa fraternity this year was winning first prize for their Homecoming float which was judged as being most in keeping with the theme. The float consisted of a large Stout Blue Devil throwing a La Crosse Indian into the Missis- sippi mud. Members of Delta Kappa participated in many school activities this year. Selling hot chocolate and hot coffee at the football games was a fall project of the fraternity. Selling Stout license plate emblems, now found on many cars on the campus, was a new student service project begun this year. During the Christmas season, the DKs sent packages to several needy families in the area. Within the fraternity, the main activities this year included the Homecoming alumni breakfast, a masquerade Halloween party, a Christmas party, the spring picnic, and the dinner dance. The Tacky Drag, the fraternity ' s traditional all-school dance, was held on Jan- uary 18. The pair that was judged as the most tacky couple was awarded prizes. Wearing the organization ' s traditional red fez and sash, two groups of pledges were initiated into the fraternity. During the year, two national conventions were held — the rail convention at Whitewater and the spring convention at Milwaukee.

Following tradition, the annual fall rushing party was centered around an Alice in P. A. Land theme. Nine girts were pledged and later were initiated. P. A. members were active in Homecoming festivities; many alumnae returned and at- tended a Homecoming dinner given in their honor. In mid-November the women assembled in the tea room for Thanksgiving dinner. Christmas Fantasy, the Ponhellenic ball , was December ' s first activity. Later, a copper earring sale was held. Two local families were the recipients of gifts of food, clothing, and toys given by the sorority. At Winter Carnival time, sorority members entered many contests. The green and white glowworm built by the P. A.s shone gaily throughout the carnival. The Snow Ball pre- sented by the sorority climaxed carnival fes- tivities. On February 14, members wore red roses in observance of their Founder ' s day. Sorority members also took part in the Ponhel- lenic Sock Hop and the Stunt Night program. With decorations centered around the traditional Maypole, May day was celebrated by the sorority with an all-school tea. On May 24, Pallas Athene held its dinner dance at the Country club. A farewell dinner honor- ing senior women ended another year for Pallas Athene. 13S FRONT ROW: Keturoh Antrim, Advisor; Borboro Hortig; Dorothy Grundmonn; Romaine Deering, Secretory Loretto Sletten- H.

Student Decisions Everyone becomes a member of the Stout Student Association on registration day; consequently this group reflects all Stout men and women. Four student-elected officers, class and dormitory representatives, and faculty advisors comprise the governing board which manages the S.S.A. Important responsibilities of the S.S.A. include taking charge of all school elections, selecting representatives from each class to serve on the governing board, electing Who ' s Who in American Colleges candi- dates from Stout, planning convocations, distributing student identification cards, publishing the college social calendar, pro- viding a public address system for school functions, and organizing and serving at all-school picnics. During its bimonthly meetings, the govern- ing board discusses matters concerning the welfare of students. The S.A.A. is primarily interested in maintaining active social life on the campus. By sponsoring mixers on weekends when other groups have no activities scheduled, the organization tries to keep the campus from becoming socially dead. This year the S.S.A. developed a new award to be given to students who had outstandingly contributed time and effort toward campus improvements. A new bulletin board placed in Bowman hall held attractive plaques designating the various organizations; consequently, locating organization notices has been greatly simplified. 136 S.S.A. officers — Pete Jockson, Ralph Stevens, Peggy Deering and Bill McKinnon keep things running smoothly Don ' t forget your S.S.A. cord — students complete registration v i ■ Bringing records up to dote ore Suson Rundle, Arloine Skor, ond Shirley Gront Officers and advisor confer — Carol Bibby, Shirley Grant, Miss McCalmont, Marlys Vieths y.w.c.a. The Big Sisters Activities of the Young Women ' s Christian Association, better known as the Y, begin long before students arrive at Stout in September. Each spring Stout women sign up to have a little sister the coming year. During the summer months the big-sisters send letters to incoming freshmen who will be their little-sisters. These letters tell of life at Stout and answer questions the freshmen might have. The first Sunday of the school year is set aside for the Big- Little-Sister tea. During the first week of school the Y held a corridor sale. Also among its projects was an annual candy sale. In anticipation of the Christmas season and a Christmas party, the Y decorated a large evergreen tree in Harvey Hall. Instead of exchanging gifts, the girls collected money and prepared a box for a needy family. At the beginning of the second semester, the Big-Little-Sister re- union was held. Preparations for the Mother- Daughter banquet were begun early in the year; everyone was kept busy until the banquet in March. In the spring the big events were retreat and the senior picnic. At retreat, the year ' s activities were discussed and plans were made for the coming year.

Two grudge games were played with the F.O.B. fraternity. The Sweetheart dance, co-sponsored with the Sigma Sigma Sigma sorority, was another event of the fall season. The Phi Sigs invited all the sororities to accompany them Christmas caroling; afterwards the women were enter- tained at the fraternity house. An all-school pizza party was held before one of the home basketball games. Fraternity members were active participants in the S club carnival and the Winter Carnival. Money-making projects included a car wash and the selling of Stout pens and pennants. The Phi Sigs honored their graduating members at Green-Up, a spring picnic. The biggest event of the year was the dinner dance. At this dance, plans for organizing an alumni chapter were started. The chapter won the efficiency trophy this year for the second time. The local chapter Is also given credit for founding a new fraternity chapter at Superior State College.

Held in an atmosphere of candlelight and jack-o-lanterns, Tri Sigma ' s annual Halloween tea provided festivity for all who attended. Later in the fall, Sigmas and Phi Sigma Epsilon co-sponsored the Sweetheart dance, giving away Lover, a cuddly, stuffed dog, to the holder of the winning ticket. Autumn activities concluded with chapter inspection by a national executive board member. Holiday festivity and social service projects constituted part of Tri Sigma ' s Christmas cele- bration. Early in December, members decor- ated for the Panhellenie ball. They also attended a Sigma coketail party before the dance. As a social service project, Tri Si gma packed a Christmas basket for a needy family in Menomonie. Additional service projects . include contributing to the Robbie Page Memorial fund for crippled children and giving a scholarship to a worthy freshman girl. Sixty years of upholding leadership, scholarship, and strong womanly character were celebrated on April 20, Tri Sigma ' s Founder ' s day.

Dietetic club is a professional organization for students majoring in these two fields. Dietetic club is active professionally and socially. Vocational tours during the 1957- 1958 school year included two field trips to Minneapolis, Minnesota. The Betty Crocker Kitchens, the University of Minnesota hospital, and Dayton ' s Food Service were among the places visited. This spring several Stout dele- gates attended the National Restaurant Association Convention held in Chicago. Early in December, the club held i ts annual fruitcake sale. This sale gave valuable experience in large quantity cooking. The annual Christmas party was held in the Tainter Hall classroom, complete with a Christmas tree and Santa Claus. Careers were stressed by the Dietetic club in the hope of attracting more girls to the profession. On Honor ' s day, a medical dictionary was presented to the senior who had most com- pletely represented the ideals of the club, both in her profession and her club work. To culminate the year ' s activities, Dietetic club held a dinner honoring its graduating seniors.

This informal club is mainly designed to teach beginners how to ski and to provide opportunities for experienced skiers to develop new skills. During the year the club grew, and students enjoyed the activities done together. Club members visited three main skiing centers: Telemark, Hardscrabble, and Deep- wood. Nearly every weekend at least one carload of club members from Stout went skiing at a nearby resort. Stout has been proud to furnish Deepwood with the ski patrol in charge of conduct on the hill. During the Winter Carnival, enthusiastic members sponsored cross-country races and ski-jumping contests. One of the biggest high- lights of the year was a weekend trip to Porky- pine Mountain in northern Michigan. About a dozen members enjoyed themselves in a skier ' s paradise. Presenting their own Winter Carnival at Deepwood, Ski club members invited Eau Claire students, the latter arriving attired in humorous, unusual clothing. The day was spent skiing; in the evening food was fur- nished, and music was provided for dancing. Many interesting and helpful movies were shown throughout the season. They in cluded tips on safety, basic skills, and modern tech- niques. In March, the club sponsored a mixer. 141 FRONT ROW: Dick G.

Results of EPT elections are announced Santa mokes his traditional visit to the Christmas party epsilon pi tau For Industrial Arts Stout State College is the home of Theta chapter of Epsilon Pi Tau, national honorary fraternity in the field of industrial arts. The organization, through social, technical, and research projects, strives to provide means of improvement for its members. Several social events are sponsored by E.P.T. each year. A Christmas party was held for the members and their families or dates. The next event was a mixer after the La Crosse basketball game. The organization takes several field trips each year. They sometimes journey to second- ary schools to study different methods of teaching industrial arts; or they may take a trip, as they did :ast fall, to Minneapolis, where they saw Cinerama and were shown the equipment involved in its production. Funds raised by the group were used not only for the various social activities, but also for the annual $25.00 . scholarship to a Stout student selected by the members. Meetings were held twice a month. Busi- ness pertinent to the group was discussed at these meetings, and a person associated with industrial arts or a related field presented information to the group. A joint meeting of E.P.T. and Phi Upsilon Omicron was held; a well-known speaker was engaged to address the gathering. 142 metals guild Blue Bells in Metal Main objective sought by the Metals Guild is the furthering of members ' knowledge of new metal-working developments such as changes in techniques, products, and processes in this field. Membership is open to men who have the required number of metals courses and the proper grade point average in these courses. Regular meetings were held semi- monthly, with a work meeting being held on alternating weeks. At the regular meetings, guests from certain industries were invited to speak to the group, or films were shown on subjects of professional interest. In the fall the Guild entered a float in the Homecoming parade. The Christmas tree put up over the entrance to Bowman Hall during the Yuletide season was the work of Metals Guild members. Another of the projects carried on by the Guild was the making of small blue Stout bells sold at football and basketball games to add to the spirit of the student body and to add to the noise from the cheering section. Two field trips were taken by the organization. One trip which the Guild took this year was to Josten ' s Manufacturing Com- pany at Owatonna, Minnesota.

With the change in name came a revision of the club ' s con- stitution. Such action was prompted with hopes of encouraging more students who are in- terested in electronic experimentation to par- ticipate in the club ' s program. Activities in- cluded experimentation with timers, high fidelity, and other electronic devices. Radio-Electronics club now has a new transmitter. This transmitter is installed in the ham shack of the Trades Building. The transmitter is good for novice operation and also for more advanced class license work. With a novice license the operator is able to send code on the air within certain limitations. The club also cooperated with the S.S.A. in setting up a speaker system in the gym to improve distribution of music at dances. An important aspect of the Radio-Elec- tronics club is the weekly study group. Each week a club member leads theory discussion and code practice. With the ever- increasing role of electronics in the world today, it is the hope of the club to better prepare its members for everyday life. Membership in the club is open to all Stout students — both men and women — who have an interest in amateur radio or electronic experimentation.

Duane Webb ' s shot is checked with a telescope Club members practice under the instructor ' s watchful eye rifle club Straight Shooters Main objective of the Rifle club is to further the encouragement of organized rifle and pistol shooting among citizens of the United States, residents of our own com- munity, and students of Stout State College. Other aims of this organization include better knowledge of the safe handling and proper care of firearms. In 1947 this group became affiliated with the National Rifle Association. Men and women students interested in firing small bore rifles, pistols, and larger caliber firearms be- long to the Stout Rifle club. Accepting the challenge to extend their knowledge of many types of shooting eauip- ment, the students enjov a sport which offers many recreational benefits as well as educa- tional aspects. In the soring of 1957, the members of th  local club soonsored their first Tower Gallery tourney. Postal matches were held on the Stout campus, with other colleoes and universities also takina part. Highliqhtina the year were intercollegiate matches held at the University of Minnesota in the spring. At this time, colleges competed for the award of the best team marksmen. Receiving national awards for being the most accurate pistol and rifle marksmen serves as a stimulus to club members; consequently, competition among the avid members becomes more keen throughout the year. 145 alpha psi omega Showmanship Membership in the Manual Arts Players chapter of Alpha Psi Omega provides students with a chance to gain experience in staging dramatic productions. Membership in Alpha Psi is obtained by earning a required number of points. Two points are given for each hour of work by members of the production staff. Actors, stage managers, and student direc- tors are given points according to a predeter- mined scale; a lead in a play can earn an actor as many as fifty points. When one has earned fifty points, he is classified as an understudy; when one has earned one hundred points, he is classified as a full member. Fraternity members are very proud of their new scenery shop located under the stage. Designed and remodeled by members, the room has space available for construction and storage of costumes, properties, scenery, and lighting equipment. During the past year, the organization purchased power equipment to aid in scenery construction. Alpha Psi Omega took an active part in the Parents ' weekend events by presenting two one-act plays, If Men Played Cards As Women Do, and A Cup of Tea. Three-act productions were presented in the fall and spring. The organization held a spring picnic and concluded its social activities for the year with a banquet.

Two innova- tions this year were the compiling and selling of a recipe book and a Twelfth Night party. Another first for the 1957-1958 program was the election of women from the fresh- man, sophomore, and junior classes to repre- sent their classmates on Home Economics club council. Be Profession Wise was the theme for this year ' s monthly meetings. At the first meeting, reports on home economists ' summer jobs were given by three club members. Observation of the founding of the United Nations was celebrated at a tea co-sponsored with students from other lands. These students acted as hostesses ot the tea and contributed articles from their native lands for the decor. Mrs. A. R. Henry told the women of her personal experiences at the U.N. Freshman women displayed their organi- zational know-how when they presented the annual Green tea in March. Dean Kirk high- lighted the March meeting with her talk, Home Economists in Television and Radio. Senior members were honored at the Senior Farewell breakfast.

The purpose of this organization is to strengthen the spiritual life of the college student. Leaders of the group feel that good spiritual thinking is part of a well-balanced college life. Informal meetings aided in free exchange of ideas; often individual members took charge of the discussions. These meetings were open to all if a special film or speaker was presented. The S.C.F. held exchange meetings with the Eau Claire and River Falls chapters in order to become better acquainted with similar groups on other campuses. Earlier in the year, several members traveled to Wood Lake to attend the regional conference of the Inter-Varsity Christian Fellowship. S.C.F. does not eliminate the social side of college life from its calendar. The group held several parties, some of them being ex- change meetings with other groups. About one meeting a month was set aside for a social gathering. This year, as i n the past, the organization had a spring and a fall picnic. It also joined in the Homecoming festivities by constructing a float with a religious theme. In addition, members gave a Homecoming breakfast for all S.C.F. alumni.

The council ' s first activity this year was the preparation and distribution of a bulletin, Locate Your Church. This bulletin was intended to familiarize new stu- dents with Stout ' s religious facilities. It listed all churches in Menomonie, their addresses, clergymen, hours of services, and other in- formation which incoming students would be interested in knowing. During the year several speakers were in- vited to discuss the need of religion on the college campus and the responsilibity which a religious organization has for students. The selected representatives of each participating organization held monthly supper meetings to discuss campus religious problems. The presi- dents of the various religious groups repre- sented on the council reported on the activities of their respective groups during the year. During Brotherhood week, the Inter-Religious council sponsored guest speakers for religious emphasis and also sponsored a fund drive for world service organizations. Through the council ' s activities, clergy- men, faculty members, students, and parents achieved a better understanding of the rela- tionship that should exist in a democratic society between higher education and religion.

The people behind the scenes have worked long and hard to publish this yearbook. The production editor heads the back- stage crew. During the summer, he draws up the dummy, a plan of the proposed layout. Staff photographers are especially important, for the Tower is essentially a picture book. On scheduled nights they take group pictures of classes and organizations. As the year wears on they are everywhere, snapping informal records of campus activities. Their photographs capture the excitement of a close basketball game, the enthusiasm of Homecoming festivities, the beauty of the decorations at a big dance. Then the literary staff, under new faculty advisorship this year, attacks the task of writing articles to explain the pictures. Stories are written, checked for accuracy, corrected or rewritten if necessary, and then submitted to the literary editor for final approval. All the staff members join in composing captions to identify the people, places, and events shown in the photographs. This done, typists and proofreaders put their efforts toward meeting the printer ' s deadlines. The backstage preparation is finished now. Many people have played their parts in the publication of this Tower. Through their cooperative effort the book reaches the students in completed form. 150 FRONT ROW- John H Wills, Advisor; Helen Froehlich; Kay Koeper; Carol Hawksworth; Louella Howell; Morval Klecker; Joanne Salnv Jean Sprain ' Anne Marie Dahl; Barbara Reitrer; Patricia Sddner, Associate Editor.

Besides providing experiences in acting and directing for interested students, plays give hours of enjoyment to audiences. Preparing a play is a project requiring several months. Before the lights dim and the curtain opens, students spend many hours in perfecting the play. After a series of try-outs, the director names the cast, and work on the play begins. The actors concen- trate on memorizing lines and assuming the personalities of the characters they portray. Frequent rehearsals ore needed to give the production professional polish. Behind the scenes the production crews are also at work. Committees are functioning to build sets, plan scenery, collect properties, prepare costumes, and arrange lighting. Make-up and sound effect details are also considered. While these technical aspects progress, the publicity committees must prepare posters, handbills, and radio announcements to inform everyone of the coming event. Tickets and programs must be printed. Finally curtain time arrives. Weeks of hard work are climaxed by presentation of the play. These play preparations occur twice each year at Stout. There are two major produc- tions, the fall play and the spring play. These events, together with one-act plays, give students excellent dramatic experiences.

The staff is made up entirely of students, and every step of the paper ' s pro- duction — writing, editing, printing, and circu- lating — is their work. The product is a paper filled with academic, social, and sports news, all of which are a part of student life. The paper gets its start Monday morning when the reporters are sent out in search of news stories. During the next few days, the staff members begin copyreading, typing, and proofreading articles; the dummy is also drawn up. Late Thursday evening the production staff runs off the paper. Circulation of the college newspaper, the only phase of pro- duction of which most students are aware, is supervised by the circulation manager and his staff. Copies of the paper are mailed to active alumni, and thirty newspapers from each week ' s publication are kept in The Stoutonia file. For Homecoming, Thanksgiving, and Christmas, special editions of The Stoutonia are published. Staff members receive a good deal of practical experience in journalism and print- ing. On Awards day both an outstanding member of the staff selected by Mr. Whydot- ski and the retiring editor receive awards for service rendered to the paper.

Odegard, was made on the sixth of November. This concert was appropriately called the Fall Festival of Music. Soon after this concert followed preparations for the Christmas con- cert. The night of December eighteenth found the choir singing of the Spirit of Christmas. Numbers on the program done by the Symphonic Singers were All Glory, Laud, and Honor, and the Doxology Choral Prelude. The audience, choir, and band participated in two numbers for the proces- sional and recessional. A memorable experience for all the members was the spring Symphonies tour. This three-day tour gave the choir excellent experience and spread good will around the country. When it returned the choir gave a spring concert. All in all, the school yeor was a very busy one. Choir functioned like any organization in that it had officers elected by the choir members. The officers helped to see that everything ran smoothly throughout the school year. President of the choir was James Schnitzler; other officers were Ruth Olson, secretory; and Beverly Spry, treasurer. All of the accompanying for the choir was done by Steve Saxton.

Cm, band Leading the Parade Under the direction of Dr. Edfield Ode- gard, the Stout State College band provided music for fellow students throughout the school year. In the fall, the marching band played selections before football games. For half-time entertainment at games, the band exhibited its skills in maneuvering. In Novem- ber, the band joined the choir in presenting a Pops concert. Band and choir presented two perfor- mances of their Christmas concert. The show must go on could have been the band ' s motto, because it started the evening concert playing by candlelight — a situation brought on by a power failure throughout the city. At home basketball games, the pep band led the cheering section in rousing songs. The Festival of the National Federation of Music Clubs was held in Menomonie this year. Stout ' s band played a short prelude to this concert and also accompanied the festival choir. Dur- ing April the organization gave its annual spring concert. The band ended the year ' s activities by playing for Commencement. A satisfactory high school record in instru- mental music is the only prerequisite for Stout band members- New instruments ac- quired this year include a sousaphone, a pair of sixteen-inch cymbals, and a C piccolo. A bassoon, the first one Stout has ever owned, was also among the new purchases. The band helps boost spirits at basketball games 159 School Calendar September TO 11 12 14 15 20 21 24 27 28 4 5 Octobei November 21, 22, December January 12 15 19 25 26 30 2 6 9 16 23 26 3 5 7 10 13 14 16 18 19 11 25 28 31 Sports Spree — WRA All-School Picnic and Dance All-School Mixer — Home Ec Club Football — Winona All-School Dance — SSA Campus Sister Tea — YWCA Street Dance — Chi Lambda Football — Eau Claire Duffy ' s Tavern — FOB All-School Rushing Party — Panhellenic Fall Festival — YWCA Bermuda Blast — Alpha Sigma Alpha Football — River Falls Queen ' s Coronation and Bonfire Football — La Crosse (Homecoming) Homecoming Parade and Dance Football — Whitewater Open House — Tainter Hall Football — Superior Ghost Dance — Srg Tau Football — Northland Halloween Tea — Tri Sigma Football — Loras College Parents ' Weekend Sweetheart Dance — Tri Sigma and Phi Fall Festival of Music Rose Dance — Sig Tau Ugly Man on Campus Contest — APO MAP Play — Outward Bound Basketball — St. Mary ' s Basketball — Northwestern Basketball - — Northland Basketball — Augsburg Basketball — Northland Christmas Dance Basketball — Eau Claire Basketball — St. Cloud Christmas Concert Christmas Tea — Home Ec Club Basketball — Superior Basketball — Oshkosh Tacky Drag — Delta Kappa Basketball — River Falls Basketball — Winona Winter Carnival Sig 160 School Calendar February 1 Winter Carnival Snow Ball — Pallas Athene 3 Basketball — Eau Claire 4 Campus Sister Reunion — YWCA 7 Card Party — Arts and Crafts 8 Basketball — Superior Scotch Hop — Delta Zeta Spring Rushing Party — Panhellenic 10 Basketball — Winona Mitchell-Ruff Duo — Modern Jazz 14 Basketball — Stevens Point Sweetheart Dance — Tainter Hall 15 Basketball — Platteville Mardi Gras Dance — Chi Lambda 16-22 Sadie Hawkins Week — Alpha Sigma Alpha 18 Basketball — Milwaukee 22 Basketball — La Crosse Sadie Hawkins Dance — Alpha Sigma Alpha March 1 Basketball — River Falls 5 Heidelberg Tea — Delta Zeta 13, 14, 15 MAP Play — ' Torch Bearers 15 Mother-Daughter Banquet — YWCA 20 Milk Bar— FOB 22 Stunt Night — FOB 24 - 28 Nutrition Week — Dietetic Club 29 Freshman Formal April 16 Spring Tea — Phi U 17, 18, 19 Syncronized Swim Show 26 Junior Prom May 1 Dinner Dance — Delta Kappa 3 Dinner Dance — Tri Sigma 7 May Day Tea — Pallas Athene 9 Dinner Dance — Phi Sig 10 Dinner Dance — Delta Zeta 16 Dinner Dance — Chi Lambda 17 Dinner Dance — FOB 18 Senior Breakfast — Home Ec Club 23 Dinner Dance — Alpha Sigma Alpha 24 Dinner Dance — Pallas Athene 31 Commencement 161 Faculty Agnew, Dwight L. 20 Amon, Martha Ruth 28 Antrim, Keturah 15 Arneson, Herman C 20 Axelsen, Paul A. 21 Barnard, David P, 18 Benson, Norman A. 20 Bentley, Phyllis D. 18 Callahan, Gertrude 28 Carrison, Clara 20 Chinnock, Dwight D. 24 Clure, Dorothy 23 Cooper, Mrs. Lillian S. 19 Cornwell, Raymond L. 17 Cox, Eleanor H. 17 Cutnaw, Mary A. 16 Dyas, Edwin W. 23 Erdlitz, Irene 29 Face, Wesley L. 25 Fleming, Thomas F. 26 Gerlach, Joseph 25 Hain, Wauneta L. 29 Halfin, Harold H. 28 Harbour, Myron 29 Harper, Margaret 18 Iverson, Ralph G, 15 Jarvis, John A. 14 Jeter, Lillian 27 Johnson, Ray C. 28 Keith, Floyd 24 Killian, Mary E, 24 Kirk, Alice J. 14 Klatt, Dick G. 27 Knutson, Dorothy J. 18 Kranzusch, Ray F. 28 Kube, Frieda 19 Kubly, O.
