One Shocker organization that was always in the midst of pep demonstrations during the year was the. Girls' Drum and Bugle'Corps. The group appeared at all football games played on the home field and also accompanled the University Band to Washburn College for the annual Thanksgiving Day game. The girls created pep at several basketball games besides appearing in the Homecoming Day parade as shown here. Miss Loneta Brown is the drum major.

The athletic policy committee of the Uni- versity was active all year in forwarding the aims of the department. The committee consisted of Dr. John Rydjord, chairman, Dean Frank A. Neff, Dr. Eldor Marten, Dean Leslie B. Sipple, Dr. Lambertus Hek- huis and Vane Smith. Old King Football, with Athletic Director Albert J.

Basketball, missing stride for a year, jumped back into position as the season progressed this year. Coach Lindsey W. Austin, a Shocker alumnus, proved that he still had the spirit of his alma mater at heart by working magnificently on what promised to be a poor basketball team, and wrought from his hard-working squad the surprise team of the Central Conference. The schedule this year included games with the Oklahoma Agricultural and Me- chanical College, a member of the Missouri Valley Intercollegiate Conference, and Kan- sas State College, a member of the Big Six Conference. The Kansas State team was whipped soundly in Wichita by the Shockers in the only game between the two teams, but Wichita lost to the Oklahomans. An annual trip into Old Mexico was part of the program, and the department offers Page Ten
