Historical Literary Section
As all worthwhile things do, the Winona State Teachers College had its origin in an ideal. It has been generally conceded that Horace Mann was the first active promoter of that ideal. As a leading American advocate of education in the early eighties, he spent some time in inspecting the six normal schools in Prussia. Upon his return he stated that he believed the main defect in our public school system to be unprepared teachers. The following twenty years witnessed sincere attempts to remedy this condition.
In 1858, Dr. John D. Ford of Winona, suggested the normal school system for our own state. The city of Winona, through its success in raising $7,000 by means of subscription, became the site of the new school which was the first of its kind to exist in the northwest.
On August 2, 1858, the school was founded and two years later on Sep
tember 3 it was formally opened. How odd that first schoolmorningwould have seemed to the students of this generation! Two teachers and twenty applicants met in the upper room of the town Pres. Ogden hall, a building which had been temporarily loaned by the people of Winona. This same considerate and generous spirit still exists among the citizens and has come to be known as their heritage. According to Mrs. Howe, who was privileged in being a member of that first group of hopefuls, the seats were benches such as we now see in city parks. Although the students were strangers to each other, one purpose united their efforts. They were preparing to teach in the schools of the new state and all were determined to help the founders in making the venture successful.
Principal John Ogden voiced the sentiment of many when he said, in speaking of the institution, “She launches forth freighted with the dearest hopes, the earnest prayers, and the highest ambition of the leading minds of the great and free peopleof the Northwest.
The three R’s reading, writing and arithmetic were the principal subjects taught, although a course in Latin and special method studies were also introduced. Probably the most exciting and impressive incident enjoyed by that first class was the trip to the first teachers’ convention held at Rochester. We are told that they traveled in two stage coaches and on their return engaged in a race down Stockton hill. No accidents occurred, however.
Had not Principal Ogden been a man of sterling qualities, probably the ideal would have died in its infancy. His initiative and courage were invaluable in providing a firm foundation for the school. However, in December of the year 1861, he resigned to take up arms for his country. The Civil War became the center of all interest for the next
few years. Unfortunately, competent teachers could not be secured and funds were inadequate; hence, in March of 1862 the school was closed. It was reopened in 1864 with William Phelps as its principal. It was he who established the school on a permanent basis. Mainly through his intercession the state replaced the small frame building with a new school valued at $134,000. Of this P'" PWp amount the citizens of Winona donated $32,450. showing their desire to have the normal school located here. The cornerstone was laid in 1869 with impressive ceremony.
It was their vision which induced the founders of the school to choose three young men to go to the Boston Institute of Technology for special work. Each of these was promised a place on the faculty and a salary of $800 per year upon his return. One of these young men was Charles Morey; all three accomplished much, both for their alma mater and for the state.
In 1876 the legislature failed to make an appropriation for the three normal schools of the state. Our heartfelt gratitude is due the people of Winona who through public subscription and
UPSTAIRS ONLY, 1860-69
personal sacrifice kept the Winona school open until the necessary funds were secured. The Honorable Thomas Simpson deserves mention for heroic work in this campaign.
SCHOOL PICNIC AT SUGAR LOAFThe routine of the school remained primarily the same during the next twenty years. Under Charles Morey a course of study was organized for high school graduates. Principal Morey was a fluent orator and a fearless critic. His ambitious spirit was very noticeable and fully appreciated during his years of directorship from 1888 to 1904.
Probably Irving Shepard’s greatest achievement during his years of service lay in the establishing of the first kindergarten west of the Mississippi. Though funds for its maintenance were lacking, this venture succeeded because of the great enthusiasm of its founder and the courageous women who worked with him. Dr. Shepard’s wish was to have the Normal School as up-to-date as possible. Being a rigid disciplinarian, he felt that vigorous work was essential to the making of good teachers. Probably his success in keeping the school and members in an up-andcoming condition was responsible for the one hundred fifty percent increase in attendance during the following two years. This necessitated the raising of
entry requirements and the addition of two wings to the old main building. Nineteen years Dr. Shepard gave to the school, and some of the traditions which we cherish in our college today were strict practices for the students to observe then.
To show that even at this early date the school was no dead wire we present the championship football team of 1896.
Pres. Morey Xhis team succeeded in defeating both Carleton and the University of Minnesota Medics. The team as pictured are: Top Row: D. H. Roberts (Amherst, coach); Kemple (R. H.); Lehnerts (Ass’t Manager); RalphWedge (F. B.); F. K. Rowell, Owen Parker (L. H.); W. Merrill (Manager); Merrit Horen. Second Row: Guse (R. E.); Loughrey (R. T.); Keenan (R. G.); McGulggan (Capt. Q. B.); Jones (C.); J. Harris. Bottom Row: F. K. Bean, Chris Graden (L. E.); Bert Wallace (C.); Holmes (L. T.); Ristey (L. G.). Under President Millspaugh, who
served between 1898 and 1904, stress was laid upon the necessity of fusing intellectual and physical education. As a great advocate of student activities Dr. Millspaugh was influential in enlarging the physical education courses. However, he realized also the importanee of the cultural side of education and his breadth of view showed him the necessity of both.
Pres, Shepsrd
serve the best elements in the institution and to add those which seemed expedient. According to his many friends and sincere admirers he truly saw the fulfillment of that aim before his resignation in 1904.
In that year Mr. Guy E. Maxwell, previously director of the training department, became president of the school. During the first five years of his service he was influential in helping to secure an appropriation of $55,000 to provide for the kindergartens, a gymnasium and a library. This greatly
enlarged the institution. By 1908 the cost of the school buildings, furnishings, and grounds had reached $350,000. Probably it would be interesting to search through the records to see what the student body and faculty were experiencing in the way of school entertainments and activities in the early days of 1908. Even then it was the custom for the faculty to give a reception for the students. Besides Y.W.C.A. parties and an S.E.M.E.A. convention
CHAMPIONSHIP FOOTBALL TEAM 1896the students looked to their chapel hour for entertainment; in November of that year Miss Mabel Marvin (whom we all know) told in chapel the story of “Five Pounds of Cinnamon.” Also we might mention the fact that a Mendelssohn centenary program was given the chorus in February, 1908. Although school customs have changed but slightly during the last twenty years, it is not our privilege to hold commencement exercises in the Winona Opera House as did the graduates of that time. Pres. Miiispaugh ^ very vital need was met when Governor Johnson signed a bill appropriating $75,000 for a Women’s Building. The attendance was increasing greatly and women formed more than eighty percent of those who entered. It seems that our school has always been foremost in leading some worthwhile movement in the city of Winona; the year 1910 proved no exception to the rule. We are told from
old and reliable sources that it was the Winona State Normal School which started the pioneering for playgrounds in Winona. A vast improvement in the recreatory space belonging to the school itself served to set an example which produced effects even now visible.
In 1912 Miss Florence Richards sueceeded Miss Katherine Kenaga as Dean of Women. She was a graduate of the University of Michigan and had spent two summers in graduate study and two summers in Europe for the same purpose. Miss Richards proved invaluable in the forming of a more social
LOST BY FIRE, 1922 GIRLS BASKETBALL TEAMSpirit among the women students of the college. Groups were organized for “neighborhood social purposes” and probably much “little sister” work was done in this way. The available women’s dormitories were filled to overflowing. It might interest certain of the men students of our college to know that at one time West Lodge was called West Morey Lodge and was the resident boarding place of twenty young ladies.
Probably the most outstanding occurence during the year 1915 was the dedication of the New Model Training School named for William Phelps. The program began with the school hymn “Hail Winona!” sung by the students. Director Somsen deposited in the cornerstone a bronze box containing the appropriate papers. The main speaker of the day was Governor Eberhart who gave a stirring message to his listeners. He stated the main purpose of the new school in these words, “The aim of this elementary school is to assist children to appreciate the values of life and to get control of them.” Probably the secondary or correlated purpose for
which Phelps School was established was so that the leaders and students of the Normal School might have an institution in which to apply those principles of method “upon which the best educational thought and experience have been fully agreed.”
TheWorld War changed conditions in the personnel, material, and spiritual affairs of the school. Attendance was decreased by the withdrawal of many students into various important affairs closely or remotely connected with the war. Of course, the number of men enrolled was reduced very greatly and a number of the faculty also enrolled in the army. The members of the school looked with pride on the honor roll which grew from week to week. Time was given to many phases of war work that could be done at the school and the dormitories outside of class hours; also, chapel periods were given to the furthering of war work. Even the managing of the building was affected by the war, the supply of coal restricting the running of the ventilating fans. On February 22, 1918, a Service Emblem was dedicated to commemórate the service under the flag of forty-five young men and women of the Winona State Normal School. The forty-five students were represented on the emblem by forty-five stars. A copy of this emblem was placed outside the school where all might see it.
Probably I might insert here the fact that Winona ended its 1917-1918 foot-
ball season by defeating St. Cloud 28 to 13- Here’s to your luck in 1935, team! You see, we’ve always had the material and all it takes is will to keep them from “getting our goat.’’
With the coming of peace, a new impetus was felt in the school. Construetive, worthwhile work continued while new theories and tales of astonishing inventions and discoveries were being poured into the avid ears of Winona Normal School students. As a climax to the work in the mechanical field, “Cinderella” was displayed after many hours of anxious computation and hard work. “Cinderella” was a small cyclecar built under the direction of Mr. John H. Sandt.
A very significant change occurred in 1921 when the state legislature adopted the name Winona State Teachers College and authorized the College Board to grant the degree. Bachelor of Education. Possibly no one else ever felt more proud than these young men and women who, in June 1926, received the first degrees to be awarded by
the college.
All Winona remembers that Sunday morning in December 1922 when the old college building burned. The fire did little damage to the library and model school but it destroyed entirely the main building which had been the home of the school for more than fifty-five years. Amid many great handicaps the school carried on its work for the following two years. To the heroic teachers of whom Miss Gildemeister was one, as well as to the “never-give-up” students goes a laurel for their courageous attitude.
On the opening day of the school year in 1924, the students were privileged to occupy a complete new fireproof building costing with equipment $632,000 and known as College Hall. That is the building which we, the students of 1935, occupy today. It is a structure which houses deep-rooted traditions of yesterday and lofty aspirations for tomorrow. These traditions are imbedded in the spirit and the life of the institution. Many of them, such as chapel
exercises, modified student government, and the standards of sportsmanship are probably not thought of as traditions to the outsider. Even our appreciation of the beauty of our natural surround-
ings has become traditional; in the views from Garvin Heights, the rustic scenery on Birch Trail, and the boldness and age of Castle Rock we can read as from a history text. These landmarks have watched for years our progress of a school and probably will for hundreds of years to come.
In our diamond jubilee year we are endeavoring through a picturesque pageant to bring a realization of what has been wrought since the first class group sat in the upper room of the city hall. It is also our wish to show in this way our heartfelt appreciation to each and everyone who fiave helped to make the Winona State Teachers College what it is today. And when we say this we are thinking not only of the building but of the spiritual values of our school, for they are “more real and lasting than its walls.”
History of the Year’s Activities
FALL QUARTER
RESHMAN Day, September 3, which ended in a Ereshman Mixer in the gymnasium at eight o’clock marked the informal opening of the fall quarter. Registration and the formal opening occurred the following day.
Initiations at the three dormitories and by the Men’s Club provided amusement for several weeks but the Stunt Night party and the faculty reception were the social high lights of the first month. Friendship Day, a traditional observance, sponsored by the Y.W.C.A. culminated the “get-acquainted” activities.
A lecture on modern plays by Dr. LeRoy Arnold and the production of his latest play, “Then and Now” by the city League of Women Voters as guests of the college League were appreciated by the entire college.
The Homecoming celebration was the big event of the fall quarter. On the evening of October 19, in spite of the inclement weather, a big pep fest was staged in the auditorium. The next day’s program consisted of the Homecoming assembly at 10 A.M. in the auditorium, a parade, football game with St. Cloud, receptions at Morey and Shepard Halls in the afternoon and a dance sponsored by the Die-No-Mo Club in the evening.
A reunion was held at the Curtis Hotel in Minneapolis during the M.E.A. convention.
A “travel party” arranged by the Intermediate Grade Club for the entertainment of the entire college and the presentation of the “Music Master” by the Hanscom Players under the auspices of the Wenonah Players concluded the social activities for the first quarter.
WINTER QUARTER
Everyone was back on December 3 after an interesting Thanksgiving holiday ready for the new term to begin. On that evening the College Women’s Club, as guests of the faculty members who belong to that organization, presented Miss Vera Brittain, an English author and lecturer.
Christmas was observed at the dormitories with the second annual Christmas dinner dance preceding the lovely program of Christmas music presented by the music department assisted by Miss Sutherland, who told a Christmas story. After the program an hour of dancing in the gymnasium completed the evening’s activities.
Basketball games were the main form of amusement during the winter quarter. Music by the college band, songs and cheering by the student body as well as the stunts put on by the physical education department provided further entertainment for the spectators.
The presentation of “Minick” by the Wenonah Players, the Die-No-Mo show and several excellent members of the Columbia Community Concert course, which included the recital by the Vienna Boys’ Choir, and the program of Spanish dances by Madame Goya, furnished further entertainment during the winter quarter.
There were also two all-college dancing parties sponsored by the Country Life Club and the other by the Men’s Club.
SPRING QUARTER
Most of the activities during this quarter centered around the celebration of the seventyfifth anniversary.
Concerts by the Mendelssohn and Apollo Clubs and two concluding numbers of the concert course were given during the first part of the quarter.
The May Fete sponsored by the kindergarten department, the Southeastern Track Meet at which teams from nearby high schools competed and the Play Day for the children of the rural schools associated with the college were held in May.
The Prom, which was held on June 1, was the first of the commencement week activities. On Sunday evening a supper for the seniors was given at Shepard Hall after which the baccalaureate services were held in the auditorium. An organ recital by Emmett Raymond was given on the Memorial Organ on Tuesday and on Wednesday. The first presentation of the Masque, depicting the historical background and traditions of the college, was given under the direction of Mr. Henry Youngerman who was assisted by committees composed of faculty members and students.
The Alumni reunion and banquet were held at Morey Hall on Thursday and the Masque was repeated in the evening.
Commencement exercises on June 7 in the auditorium of College Hall, at which Miss Theda Gildemeister delivered the Commencement Address, culminated the year’s activities.

SENIORS
Junior Class
'OACH succeeding year is indicative of the fact that people realize the increasing demand for advanced education. The size of the junior class presents a living proof that the desire for education is growing, and that the four-year course is ever becoming more popular.
All collegiate activities are well represented by the junior class. Because they are a major group in W.S.T.C., the juniors are found active in such organizations as Wenonah Players, Die-No-Mo, Wenonah Staff, Apollo Club, Mendelssohn Club, College Choir, and both women’s and men’s athletics. The junior class is also very favorably represented in the honorary groups of the college.
It is gratifying to those who were instrumental in promulgating it, that the four-year course is proving itself an overwhelming success. Those farsighted individuals realized a few years ago the advantages of higher education and its possible effects on the world. It is with anticipation that the juniors are looking forward to their senior year and their well-earned degrees. Success to the class of 1936 !

Freshmefl^'^
TN September 1934 a horde of young students froth many high" sc^ols all over^ Minnesota and other states as well, came to the Winona State Teachers College to begin their college careers.
These first year students have lived up to the tradition set by their predecessors. One would have to look far to find a group any more zestful and ready for college activities but at the same time eager to pursue their studies, than the present freshman class. They were likewise eager for participation in the various college clubs and organizations as was shown by their “let’s-go attitude.”
The “pigskin” lured many a former high school champion to the football field for long hard hours of practice in the fall. Lusty voiced young leaders called “What’s the matter with the team” and students responded in as lustful a tone. In the ranks of the band filed peppy cornetists, drummers and other musicians.
The officers of the first year class are:
Julius Hargesheimer
Victor Hafner
Bette McLaughlin
Mr. French
President Vice-President Secretary-Treasurer AdviserFreshmen
OURNALISM held its attraction for the talented. On the mastheads of both the Winona and the Wenonah are to be found names of ambitious freshmen.
Freshmen women showed eagerness to become members of the Mendelssohn Club, while the tenors and basses joined the Apollo Club.
The purple and white basket shooters were not all veterans this year; in fact a large percent of the team were college freshmen. The numerous other clubs and organizations of the college invited first-year students to join, which they did.
The footlights dazzled many a young thespian who took his stand upon the stage and uttered forth vehemently “To be or not to be.’’
After having learned the location of the library the earnest young freshmen were to be seen at all hours of the day industriously studying. College parties were a welcome diversion for the tired lectured students.
Looking ahead into the future one may prophecy that the
of 193536 will continue to build a fine structure, the foundation of which has been laid by this year’s freshmen.

The Representative Council
npHE Representative Council was instituted in the spring of 1927, but did not assume its duties until the following September. Leslie Johnson was the first president.
It is composed of five members chosen from the faculty, the presidents of each of the four classes and a representative from each of the three upper classes. The purpose of the organization is to further cordial relations within the membership of the college, to maintain high standards of honor and loyalty, and promote in every possible manner the best interests of the college.
The members meet jointly every two weeks to discuss matters pertaining to the various college activities. They appoint members to the joint committees delegated to carry on the business of the College Association.
It has been a vital part of the college since its organization and has rendered willing services whenever the opportunity has arisen.
Members of the council are: Orland Johnson, Louise Hundley, Elsie Finkelnburg, Julius Hargesheimer, Miss Richards, Miss Talbot, Mr. Boots, Mr. Simmers, and Mr. Jederman.

Purple Key
^ipHE Purple Key is an honorary society with its membership based on the promise of unusual service in the field of education. Each year ten students of the college are elected into the society, their election being determined by their scholarship and participation in at least four elective extra-curricula activities.
The members are mostly upper classmen, but students in the last quarter of the sophomore year are eligible on the same basis as the juniors and seniors.
The organization endeavors to develop among its members a social and professional attitude becoming to a teacher.
Election to the Purple Key is one of the highest honors bestowed on students by the college.
New members elected this year include: Margaret Buehler, Evelyn Ogrosky, Gertrude Olson, Martin Laakso, Suzette Sucker, Chester Schneider, Marian MeIntire, Frank Wachowiak, and Elizabeth Shirven.
Die-No-Mo
ir^IE-NO-MO means “dynamo,” generator of pep and energy. The Die-No-Mo Club is an organization made up of the representative students and faculty members. The purpose of the club is to further worthwhile collegiate activities of the school by creating interest and enthusiasm in their welfare. Ralfe Calkins was the first president of the organization.
The club began its work in 1926 by encouraging in various ways a hundred per cent attendance at the college games and entertainments. High standards for the school were set when the Die-No-Mo club originated the Sportsmanship Code.
In addition to the sponsoring of pep fests and booster meetings before athletic contests as well as the homecoming activities, the Die-No-Mo Club presents an annual show for the entertainment of the college. This year it was an original production, “Pigs Wings,” which was directed by Julius Hargesheimer.
The officers of the club are:
Victor Gislason
John Kissling

Wenonah Players
A DRAMATICS CLUB was founded in 1916 but it did not assume the name of ^ “The Wenonah Players” until in 1923. The first officers were: Dorothy Magnus, president; Sybil Yates, vice-president; Beatrice Peters, secretary-treasurer and Agnes Loughlin, faculty adviser.
The primary purpose of the club is to promote drama in the college as a whole. Equally important however, is the training it furnishes the members of the club by holding workshop meetings. The purpose can best be set forth by this short poem:
To rouse the spirit and develop the heart.
To inspire the soul and enlarge the vision
To help our fellow-men through play and service And thus to assist in the progress And upbuilding of this school for this Our club was founded.
The club has presented many fine plays. Two that stand out most vividly are “Disraeli” in which Ruth Beth Watts, a former instructor in the college, played the lead and “Death Takes a Holiday,” presented four years ago. The outstanding accomplishment this year was thethree-act play “Minick.”

Mendelssohn Club
npHE diamond anniversary of the college is an outstanding milestone for certain organizations within the college as well as for the institution as a whole. The Mendelssohn Club was founded under the direction of Miss Caroline V. Smith in 1900, and this year marks the thirty-fifth anniversary of this very worthwhile musical group. Because they have an intense interest in fine music, the members have done much in promoting it in this community and elsewhere.
The annual recital was given March 29 at College Hall. Mr. Johannes Possum, violinist, formerly of Minneapolis and guest artist for the last year’s concert, also participated in the concert this year. Theefficient directing of Mr. Grimm, and the earnest work of the members of the club made this recital one of the finest musical programs of the year.
The officers of the club are:
Marjorie Selle
Isabel Johnson
Glenna Ames

Mr. Walter Grimm.
President Vice-President Secretary-Treasurer Librarian DirectorApollo Club
TOURING the five years of its existence, the Apollo Club has made an enviable reputation for genuine artistic accomplishment. “To sing for the joy of singing, to develop interest and ability in the art, and to reflect the spirit of the college which sponsors it’’ are the purposes of this group of men students who comprise the club.
The spring tour which the club takes each year has been an influential factor in building up the enrollment of the college and advertising the music department to the public.
The club, under the enthusiastic direction of Miss Janet Rohweder, is in much demand to sing at civic gatherings and to broadcast programs of fine music. The annual concert was given at College Hall on April 5. Mrs. Keith Emery, a violinist of Winona, was guest artist at the concert.

The Mixed Chorus
^ ipHE Mixed Chorus is made up of the young women of the Mendelssohn Club ^ and the young men of the Apollo Club together with a selected group of students who are interested in vocal music.
Under the direction of Mr. Grimm the chorus meets twice a week to practice secular and sacred music. Songs from oratorios, operas, and musical comedies are sung sometimes with accompaniment but often as a cappella music.
In 1932 The Mikado was presented and that same year the chorus assisted with the George Washington Bi-Centennial program. It is always willing to cooperate whenever music is needed for assembly programs and plays an important role in the Christmas and Easter programs given for the assembly as well as in the Commencement Week exercises. Occasionally it takes part in community and church programs in the city.
The choir holds a very definite place in the musical circles of the college, always adding a great charm to any program in which it has a part.

Mason Music Club
npHE Mason Music Club was organized October 8, 1920, by the girls who at that time were taking the public school music course. Margurite Snyder was the first president of the club.
It is the intention of the club to study those phases of music that are not ineluded in the regular curriculum and to help the members cultivate a taste for the true appreciation of the best music.
Since its founding in 1920 it has helped to create real interest in the music dcpartment of the college and has furnished the college with a fine quality of musical entertainment. Through its efforts the music-practice rooms have been furnished with curtains and furniture.
The club was instrumental in the preparation for the Christmas program during the past year.

npHE College Orchestra was organized in 1924 under the direction of Mr. Grimm and is now one of the outstanding musical organizations in the college. Its members are accomplished musicians who enjoy instrumental music and wish to familiarize themselves with orchestral work.
The organization has a three-fold purpose; to aid by its presence at concerts, plays, and chapel exercises in the college; to give students who are interested in instrumental music an opportunity for experience in concert work, and, finally, to familiarize them with worth-while music of a grade suitable for junior and senior high schools.
Since its organization it has furnished music at the plays and other entertainments presented by the various clubs in the college, who recognize and appreciate its excellent musicianship and willing cooperation in assisting at so many programs.
The officers of the club are:
Beatrice Schaffner Secretary Lauren Amdahl LibrarianThe Band
^IpHE first band, consisting of ten members, was organized under the direction of Mr. Grimm in 1927. It assisted at pep fests and football games and was one of the outstanding features of the 1927 Homecoming celebration.
Since its organization it has participated in all college activities, as well as furnishing entertainment on numerous occasions for clubs of the city. Its membership has increased steadily until at present there are forty members.
Mr. Grimm was the director in 1927 and 1928 and since that time Mr. Reese, Mr. Karrow, Mr. Gullickson, and Mr. Edstrom have acted in that capacity.
During the past year it participated at all the college football games, pep fests, and basketball games, as well as in the Homecoming parade. It has given concerts during assembly, for the Phelps school, and for the Rotary club at the college auditorium. It took a prominent part in the parade during the Winter Carnival sponsored by the Junior Chamber of Commerce and gave an open air concert in the Lake Park band shell during the closing week of school.

Since its organization it has assisted in the staging of two carnivals to help furnish the club room, and assisted the Men’s Club in sponsoring the Homecoming party in 1917. It has donated fifty dollars to the student loan fund and twenty dollars to the Seventieth Anniversary fund. It has given several all-college parties, besides the annual suppers for the club members.
One of the interesting programs of the current year consisted of a buffet supper given during the winter quarter. The most outstanding activity was the granting of a life membership in the Alumni Association to Miss Flora Trites, a former member of the college faculty.

A system of committees makes it possible for every member to be an active participant in club activities.
Since its organization it has sponsored several all-college parties and has assisted other clubs in sponsoring entertainments for raising money for the organ fund and furnishing the club room.
During the current year the club has sponsored a series of ten-minute movies to which all the students of the college are invited.

Kindergarten Club jC'ROM
the standpoint of its contributions to the college and to the community, the Kindergarten Club has proven itself one of the most worthwhile groups in school since the organization of the club in 1915. Perhaps the most pertinent is the establishment of the Kindergarten Scholarship Fund. Gifts of equipment and pictures to the Kindergarten Department indicate a constant interest in that division of Winona State Teachers College.
In 1918 the club contributed to a Kindergarten Unit in France. A donation to the Near East Relief was made in 1925, and the Kindergarten Club was instrumental in the earlier assistance in the Winona Day Nursery.
The first president of the organization was Irene Davey (Mrs. E. F. Lieb).

The membership is limited to twenty members. At each meeting several current topics are presented by a committee of the members and a discussion by the entire club follows.
Last year it cooperated with the Debate Club in bringing the Cambridge Debaters to the college. Several of the members participated in the Model League of Nations Conference held at St. Catherine’s College in St. Paul in the spring of 1934. The club has invited the International Relations Clubs in all the colleges in the state to participate in another model conference to be held at W.S.T.C. next year.

TN 1919 the Catholic students of the college, realizing their strength in numbers, decided to form the Students Catholic Association. Meetings were held at Cotter High School for a number of years. Much of their activities were social in nature.
In the fall of 1928, the association met and decided to affiliate itself with the various Newman Clubs throughout the country. Since then its purpose has been three-fold; religious, educational, and social. The program during the year includes regular monthly meetings, three quarterly communion breakfasts, an annual sleighride party, an annual travel meeting, and a spring dance. The club also takes part in the annual stunt night, providing for this the well-known “Newman Club on Parade.” An important and interesting work of the club is the scrapbook, in which records, pictures, and souvenirs of all the events of the year are kept.
The Winona Newman Club is a member of the North Central Federation of Newman Clubs, and as such, sends delegates to the annual convention held in Minneapolis.

Art Club
npHE Art Club was organized in 1923 at W.S.T.C. under the direction of Mrs. Cassidy, art instructor, with Inez Eckblad as the first president. It has a threefold aim; to further interest in art; to raise the standards of art work and to assist in art problems related to college work. The club proposes through activity, to encourage creative art and to develop an appreciation of beauty as well as to inculcate in the minds of youth the principles of art as applied to life.
Any student in college may try out for membership in the club, but the twentyfive selected must have interest and ability in applied, industrial or fine art.
The school and community is richer because of the efforts and work of the Art Club. In recent years the club cooperated with the Good Fellows in providing dolls and toys for children at Christmas. Each year the club makes possible the lovely prom decorations, and in the spring copies of world-famous masterpieces are exhibited in the club room. Through the influence of the art department students and friends of the college realize the worth of the paintings and sculpturing found in the college.

Mu Epsilon Nu
npHE name Mu Epsilon Nu was chosen for the men’s organization when it was started during the winter quarter 1921-22, but it is better known in the college as the Men’s Club. Membership is open to all men in the college. The first officers included James Vermilyea, president; James Gross, vice-president; James McCaffrey, secretary; Walter Wegner, treasurer; George Vondrashek, sergeant at arms; and Mr. Everts, faculty adviser.
The purpose of the club is to promote good fellowship and social activity among the men of the college and to further the interest of the college as a whole.
Due to the efforts of this club all the noxious accompaniments of initiation have been eliminated in the college and a program of wholesome amusement and harmless sport has been substituted. New members are initiated from time to time but the largest initiation occurs a few weeks after the opening of the fall quarter.
Mu Epsilon Nu
npHE Men’s club is of particular interest to freshmen for they are given many opportunities to display their talent and furnish entertainment for the college during the opening weeks in September.
The freshman initiation is the only definite program of the club, but it has done a great deal to foster the growth of social activities and good fellowship. It has sponsored several entertainments for visiting football teams, taken an active part in the Homecoming program each year and instigated a spring carnival which was held jointly with other college organizations for the benefit of the Memorial Organ Fund.
Its most outstanding accomplishment was the introduction of the intra-mural sports program in 1930 to encourage clean sportsmanship and friendly competition within the college. Each year the club elects an Intra-Mural Board to take charge of the program. It was through the efforts of this club that boxing instruction under David Honigs was introduced a few years ago.

The constitution of the club requires that the “W” must have been earned in one of the major sports football, basketball or track. A gold “W” set with nine half pearls is the emblem typifying the club.
Membership in the club consists of two types: those who take the initiatory degree and those who take the “W” degree.

Y. W. C. A.
npHE Y.W.C.A. is one of the oldest organizations in the college. The purpose of the club is to build for a more abundant life in a four fold way through physical, intellectual and spiritual activities.
In 1914 it became affiliated with the national organization of the Y.W.C.A.
The program of the organization tends to secure the spirit of friendship and cooperation among the young women of the college. Through the efforts of former members the Big Sister movement was initiated and is carried out each year. During the opening days of the fall quarter the members meet trains and buses and assist new students in becoming acquainted with their new surroundings.
An annual hike and breakfast in the early part of the fall quarter, Friendship Day and distribution of Christmas gifts at the poor farm are traditional activities of the Y.W.C.A.
During the past few years a course in Girl Reserve leadership occupies the major part of the winter meetings.

Debate
^IpHE first debate society was organized in 1924 with Howard Lund for its ternporary president. Dr. Selle, Mr. Kirk, Miss Davis, and Mr. Stalcup were the advisers. Membership was limited to twenty-five members and the society had a full membership the first year. The only requirement was interest in the work.
The purpose of the society was primarily to develop a debate team, but it also aimed to give all members some training in impromptu speeches, parliamentary procedure, and formal discussion.
In 1927 under the leadership of Mr. Fishbaugher a new team was organized and while there were no formal decisions, the audience decided in favor of Winona at three of the four intercollegiate debates with Eau Claire and La Crosse Teachers Colleges.
Since reorganization the college has been represented in debates with St. Mary’s, St. Thomas and the Eau Claire, La Crosse, and River Falls Teachers Colleges and also Rochester Junior College.
This year non-decision debates on the topic “Resolved that the nations should agree to prevent the international shipment of arms and munitions” were held with La Crosse, and River Falls Teachers Colleges and St. Mary’s College. It partidpated in the inter-collegiate tournament at Eau Claire during the winter quarter.
Dr. Minne has been adviser during the past three years.
Intramural Board
npHE intramural board which supervises all intramural activities for the school year is composed of five members; Coach Earl Greene and one from eachclass. In the past the representatives were appointed by the Men’s Club but this year a new system of election was carried out. The present plan was the appointment of one member to represent each class to be selected by the president of that class.
On this year’s board Everett Cox represented the freshmen; Horace Chase, the sophomores; Delose Simon, the juniors and John Fuhlbruegge, the seniors. Coach Earl Greene automatically became the nominal head of the board.
The board supervised the intramural basketball tournament, the intramural volleyball tournament, and the spring diamondball tournament. In each case the board furnished their own officials and directed the work of arranging schedules, dividing the teams and providing necessary equipment; and settling all questions or disputes arising in connection with the tournaments.
Under the present code of the board anyone is eligible to play in any intramural tournament providing heis not taking part in varsity competition. Anyone who is a letter man or has participated in more than one inter-collegiate sport is ineligible to participate in any of the various round robin tournaments. The purpose of this ruling is to provide athletic recreation for those men in the college who do not participate in inter-collegiate athletics.
Minick
ÆINICK, a comedy by George Kaufman and Edna Ferber, was presented by the Wenonah Players under the direction of Dr. Jones, during the winter quarter.
The scene was the crowded city apartment of the younger Minicks who made a brave attempt to be hospitable to the prying but kindly old father who came to live with them. His inability to adjust himself to the gay life of the younger set is the cause of both comedy and pathos.
The cast was as follows:

Annie, another maid

The Pot Boiler
np'HE Pot Boiler is a cleverly written one-act play. Backstage is the setting for this hilarious comedy. It depicts the trials and tribulations of a theatrical troupe and director on the morning of dress rehearsal. The situations and lines are surprisingly reflective of play rehearsals. Mr. Suds, the director, tries frantically to whip the play into shape although even he does not know how it will end, never having written beyond the first act. The play ends with a side splitting scene in which the actors rebel and suggest that the proper conclusion would be to “shoot the author.’’
It was presented at chapel by a group of the Wenonah Players under the direction of Edward Zakraishek.
The cast was as follows:
Mr. Pinikles Suds, the director
Mr. Woodby, the would-be playwright
Mr. Ruler, the hero
Miss Ivory, theheroine
Mr. Inkwell, the villain
Miss Pencil, the villainness
Mr. Ivory, the girl’s father

Die-No-Mo Show
“TQIG’S WINGS” was the title of the entertainment presented by the Die-No-Mo club on February 22. It was written and produced by students under the direction of Julius Hargesheimer and Mary Van Campen.
A very effective stage setting of tall green, black and silver columns which provided indirect lighting for several of the numbers was arranged under the direction of Frank Wachowiak.
The entertainment was in the form of a radio broadcast and was very cleverly announced by Mr. Hargesheimer. The opening number was an original song ‘T Miss You” by Bettie Walters and sung by a trio consisting of Janet Rohweder, Sylvia Wegner and Miss Walters.
The program consisted of a series of dances, songs and orchestra numbers. The Kampus Kings played the accompaniment throughout the production as well as presenting several clever specialty numbers.
Cheerleaders
“Come on purple Come on white
Come on Winona Let’s fight!!!’’
npHE cheerleaders move rhythmically with the yelling of the crowd. “Louder!” they shout and another yell with more “pep” comes from the enthusiastic fans while Mary Van Campen pinwheels and then suddenly stops with the splits, jumping to her feet in time to conclude the final “rah” of the “skyrocket.” The next yell is led by the male faction of the cheerleading troupe as “Franky” Wachowiak, “Gilly” Courtier, and Wayne Dickerson go through all sorts of twists and turns to bring out the best in yelling.
The cheers form a splendid stimulation for the players on the team. The leaders are chosen by means of competitive tryouts at the beginning of the school year. Their duty is to instill the needed enthusiasm for the student body at the games.
Due to the leave of absence taken by former Coach Glen Galligan the Purple gridders were issued into the well experience football tactics of a new mentor, Coach Earl Greene. Greene came to Winona highly recommended from the coaching staff at Iowa State College. He had previously coached championship football and track teams at Albany College, Oregon; three championship football teams at McLoughten Union High School at Milton, Oregon; and then was elected freshman coach at Iowa State College.
Coach Greene was developed under such famed coaches as Knute Rockne of Notre Dame; Ed. Zuppke of Illinois; Doc Meanwell of Wisconsin; Hager, Behessler, Hayward and Reinhard all of Oregon State.
His personal record includes all-conference guard at Albion College, Michigan, and regular on the University of Illinois football team.

1\ /TATERIAL was fair for the 1934 eleven but the Purple was handicapped throughout the season by injuries. Lack of sufficient offensive power prevented a better showing. The team won but two games of the seven scheduled but played well at all times and deserved a higher rating.
WINONA 0 LA CROSSE 12
The superior reserve power on the LaCrosse squad enabled the downriver eleven to defeat Winona by 12-0 in a night game at College Eield. Harr scored for LaCrosse in the first quarter from the four yard line and Butterwick plunged over from the one yard line late in the game. LaCrosse held the upper hand throughout, making 15 first downs to 9 for the Purple.

Winona won in its first conference game, taking a 6-0 victory from Bemidji in a home game. The score came in the third quarter on a 36 yard pass from Johnson to Viezbicke. The Purple outplayed the northern eleven during the entire game, missing several other scoring chances. The victory was costly because in this game Gene Jaspers broke his arm and was out for the season.
WINONA 0 MOORHEAD 26
The powerful Moorhead eleven, the class of the conference, defeated Winona 26-0 at Moorhead. The Purple held their rivals in check except for the last three minutes of the first half when Moorhead pushed over 3 touchdowns. Matson, Yatchak, and Hollister scored for the winners. Winona lacked the scoring punch to cash in on two breaks in the first half, and did not threaten thereafter.

The Eau Claire Teachers downed the Winona Peds at Eau Claire 6-2. Eau Claire scored early in the fourth quarter on a 12 yard pass, Behn to Davies, and gave Winona two points later in the period when they chose an intentional safety rather than attempting to punt from their one yard line. Vince Viezbicke missed an attempted field goal in the third period. It was Winona’s best scoring chance.
WINONA 0 ST. CLOUD 7
The St. Cloud team defeated Winona in the homecoming battle 7-0. The touchdown was made by Smith in the first quarter from the two yard line after the Purple had twice repulsed drives within the five-yard line. A heavy St. Cloud line made running plays ineffective and the Winona pass attack was hampered by the slippery field.
WINONA 0 MANKATO 13
A night game played at Mankato resulted in a Mankato victory over W.S.T.C. by 13-0. Mankato scored in the first quarter on a 12 yard run by Keefe after an 80 yard march down the field. Gladhill scored the other touchdown in the third quarter. Winona twice reached within 10 yards of the goal but could not score.
WINONA 8 ROCHESTER 6
A blocked punt which rolled out of the end zone for a safety provided the Purple with the winning margin in their 8-6 victory over Rochester at College Field. Winona scored its points in the first half, the touchdown coming on a pass from Moilanen to Russell that gained 50 yards. Rochester scored early in the second half when Peterson’s punt was blocked in the end zone. West recovered it for the J. C. touchdown. Winona held a big advantage in play the entire game, but the other scoring efforts were checked by the small Rochester eleven.
L.Jorris R. Parker K. Eggleston R. Russell L. AygarnJohnny Kozlowski, Gene Jaspers, and Lyle Arns received mention on the allconference selection; Kozlowski being placed on the first team. Horace Chase played well at center in every game.

Basketball Summary
Early in December after the Purple gridders had cast off their football suits previously completing a successful season on the gridiron, the north wind sounded a call to Thrym who presented an atmosphere which flowed freely through the veins of all basketeers and heralded their return to the court.
In the call issued by Coach Earl Greene there were only five veterans Captain Alvin Berg, Luther McCown, John Wachs, Vic Gislason and Louis Hoover, present. However the Purple were to play host to such former high school stars as Everett Cox, Ken Eggleston, Lyle Arns, Ronald Brown, and Robert Parker. With this array of former high school cagers the Purple looked forward to a promising basketball season.

WINONA 31 ST. MARY’S 36
In one of the roughest and most exciting games of the season the St. Mary’s Redmen won a 36 to 31 victory.

WINONA 33 ROCHESTER 23
The Purple then journeyed to Rochester to outclass the Yellowjackets to win an easy 33 to 23 victory. Winona established an early lead in the first half and although outscored the second, their lead was sufficient to carry them through.
WINONA 26 EAU CLAIRE 35
The Eau Claire Teachers chalked up a 35 to 26 win over the Purple in a close contestât Eau Claire. The Wisconsin Peds took an early lead but Winona came back to cut the margin to 19 to 17 at half time.However the Peds found themselves in the remaining time and stepped out to win by a nine point margin.
WINONA 19 LA CROSSE 41
The powerful La Crosse five purely outclassed the Purple cagers in their first game in “35-” The maroon starting combination piled up a 17 to 1 lead in the first period.

WINONA 32 MANKATO 26

WINONA 29 ST. MARY’S 31
St. Mary’s won the city championship title by defeating the Teachers 31 to 29. Despite the sensational playing of Cox who made 16 of the 29 points the Redmen managed to eke out a two point victory by a spurt in the final minutes.
WINONA 32 DULUTH 38
Winona fans witnessed one of the best games of the season when the conference champions, the Duluth Teachers, defeated the Purple 38 to 32.

An aggressive Mankato Teachers team defeated the Purple 27 to 25 in a closely fought contest. Mankato led by Pennington and Gladhill took advantage of the opportunities offered them and tied the score at 25 all with one minute to play. Gladhill then won the game by making two gift shots for the Katoans.
WINONA 27 ST. CLOUD 45
On the annual tour the Purple quintet first encountered a 45 to 27 defeat from a strong St. Cloud team. The Saints scored two to every Purple’s one from the floor, however, the Purple made seven free throws to the Saints five. Always striving to overcome the margin the Purple were trailing by 18 points at the end of the game.
WINONA 36 MOORHEAD 33
Winona came back on the second game of their tour to beat the Moorhead Teachers 36 to 33. With 40 seconds to play the Purple went out in front by taking a 36 to 29 lead but the Dragons managed to score two quick field goals to bring the score at 33-
WINONA 20 ROCHESTER 16
Unexpected resistance was met in the second game with Rochester. The score was tied 16 all at the close of the third period but the Yellow jackets couldn’t keep Brown and Cox from scoring and the Purple forged ahead to take a 20 to 16 victory.
WINONA 34 ST. CLOUD 40
An overtime period in which the Purple lost a 40 to 34 game at the hands of a slightly superior St. Cloud team marked the close of the basketball season. The score at regular time was 32 all. Urick scored a free throw and Cox a field goal. Again, Urick scored a field goal to give the Saints a one-point margin. Arnold then made a field goal and Perpich a gift shot to set the 40 to 34 score.
BASKETBALL
Track
Proserpina, daughter of Ceres, was reluctant to invade the upper Mississippi valley and Coach Earl Greene and the Purple cindermen were confronted with the possibilities of a late start in their track activities. However, early in May the weather became more favorable and the Purple trackmen could be seen jogging back and forth on Johnson and Washington streets, to and from practice.
With such experienced trackmen as Don Zimmerhakl, Bill Owens, Jimmy O’Gara, Luther McCown, Edwin Stull, Bill Franzmann, Horace Chase and Martin Laakso, members of the 1934 championship track team, at Earl Greene’s disposal, the Purple looked forward to a successful season.
As the season progressed great possibilities in Everett Cox, Leonard Hall, Kermit MacPherson, Ken Eggleston, Newell Ervin and Wellington Shay came to the foreground.

TRACK Top Row W. Shay, T. Rothwell, F. Moilancn, A. Pawcick, W. Thompson, G. McAvoy, H. Roth, N. Ervin.Tennis
T ouïs Hoover, Ted Rothw^ell and Alan Pawelek, members of last year’s state championship tennis team, formed the nucleus around which the 1935 Purple tennis team was built.
A complete tennis schedule was pending with Coach Willis Boots directing Louis Hoover to carry on correspondence with various colleges for possible tournaments. Plans were complete for a tournament with La Crosse Teachers and a State Tournament in which the six teachers colleges are expected to participate. The State Tournament is to be held May 30 at St. Cloud. St. Cloud was selected for its central location.
Mr. Hoover corresponded with Hamline, Macalester, and Carleton colleges to arrange possible tournaments. However final arrangements have not been completed. The three former champions will be bolstered by William Owens, John Blatnik, Irving Thomas and Everett Cox.
The method of selection was the appointment of a committee by Coach Boots to rate the possible contestants. In the event that the committee should act unfavorably toward a certain contestant he has the alternative of challenging the man above him and thus work his way into the varsity squad.
Boxing
TN THE annual boxing tournament held under the direction of Dave Honig, Bob Thurlej won the middleweight title, Albert Mulyck won the bantamweight title and Clark Guile won the light heavy weight title.
Mulyck won both the bantamweight and the featherweight titles. He beat Alan Pawelek in the former class and George Hajicek in the featherweight class.
Thurley defeated Arthur Wilson in the finals of the middleweight class. Clark Guile worked his way to the finals of the light heavyweight class by defeating Robert Robinson on a technical knockout and then winning a decision from John Kozlowski in the final.
Edwin Stull won the welterweight title by a decision over Alvin Berg and the same over Harold Roth. Gene Jaspers took the heavyweight title by outpointing Ross Russell who had previously defeated Lyle Aygarn.
Judges for the tournament were W. G. Owens and F. A. Jederman. Dave Honig refereed the bouts.
Golf
IP^EFINITE plans for the 1935 golf team were incomplete as theannual went to press but Coach Arthur French stated that possible reciprocal tournaments would be held with La Crosse, St. Cloud, and Rochester. Mr. French is making an effort to have Mankato, St. Cloud, Duluth and Bemidji join Winona to take part in a state meet to be held on the university course.
Westfield Golf Club has again offered the use of their course with the permission granted to the college to allow eight men the opportunity of participating. The course is made up of nine holes which have been improved during the past year. Mr. French hopes to arrange tournaments with outside colleges to be played at Westfield.
Intramural Basketball 1934-1935
T TNDER the supervision of the intramural board an eight team basketball league was formed and squads selected from the 60 men who indicated a desire to play. All letter winners or members of the varsity squad were barred so as to give each man in school a chance to perform. A round robin schedule of seven games per team was adopted. With few exceptions the games were well played and closely contested. As is always the case, several players stood out as the games were run off; among them were Shira, Ostmoe, Schmidt, Pawelek, Wood, Frank and John Blatnik, and O’Gara. The title was won by the TVA team captained by Louis Shira. The TVA’s finished first by copping the playoff game from PWA, second place winners. TVA and PWA had both finished with records of six wins and one loss. The CWA and AAA teams also were strong, finishing in the first division.
Men’s Intramural Volleyball
npHE men’s volleyball tournament was won by the All-Americans. Six teams were chosen by the Intramural Board and seven men were placed on each team. The captains chose the names for their teams. Delos Simon captained the winning team; Alvin Berg, the W.C.T.U.’s; Luther McCown the Intellectuals; Theodore Rothwell the Prohibitionists; Sidney Schmidt the Abstainers and Harold Roth the Teetotalars.
The Intramural Board adopted the same method of scoring as was used last year, that of using the total points to determine the winner rather than using the percentage rating.
The games were very closely contested and the winner was not determined until the very last game. Due to an upset on the part of the All-Americans and the W.C.T.U.’s, the fourth-place team had a very good chance to win the tournament in the last game but the Intellectuals saw to it that they kept their place.
FINAL VOLLEYBALL STANDINGS
iThe Women’s Athletic Association
npHE Women’s Athletic Association is organized for the purpose of encouraging physical activity by giving all girls in the college the opportunity of participating in some form of athletics. As results of this purpose we are beginning to recognize girl’s ability to play organized games; we believe we are fostering a spirit of good sportsmanship and most certainly we are furthering the observance of health rules.
Each girl must earn at least one hundred points to become a member of the W.A.A. Points are earned by taking part in the various sports sponsored by the organization during the year, and for hiking, swimming,skating, tennis, skiing, tobogganing, and sliding.
The sports sponsored by the W.A.A. in the order of their occurrence and with the sport leader of each are as follows: soccer, Betty Jane Failing; field hockey, Alyce Hill; basketball, Virginia Robb; volleyball, Anita Zittleman; swimming, Katherine O’Flaherty; tennis, Gretchen Grimm; and baseball, Gwendolyn Englerth.
Officers of the Women’s Athletic Association this year are:
Evelyn Ogrosky President
Beth Johnson Vice-President
Grace Enger Secretary-Treasurer
Miss Talbot Adviser
Miss Pendergast Adviser
Physical Education Club
npHE Physical Education Club is composed of minors and majors in the field of physical education. The purpose of the club is to promote a feeling of unity among members of the group and to raise the standards and ideals in physical education. “Play for play’s sake’’ is the motto carried out at each meeting, during which time exhilaration and joyousness reign supreme.
One play meeting is held each month to engage in some seasonal sport as basketball, volleyball, badminton, or quoits. The majors in the men’s department are often invited to the play meetings and challenged to a game. Members of the club are thereby provided a means to test their skills and at the same time spend an enjoyable evening.
Miss Julia Oviatt of the local Y.W.C.A. was present at several of the meetings to talk on physical education as a social service. Slides of professional soccer and hockey players as well as of our own teams were shown to illustrate fine form and technique. A spring hike and weiner roast usually closes the year’s activities.
The officers of the club are
Beth Johnson
Grace Enger
Alyce Hill
Miss Talbot
Miss Pendergast
President Vice-President Secretary-Treasurer Adviser AdviserFall Sports
npHE sport which proves to be most popular in the fall is soccer. A large group of girls subordinate other activities in preference to this running kicking game. At the beginning of the season play was ragged and bruises were common but as the girls went out eager to learn, they were soon playing ball that only good coaching could make possible.
The group was divided into teams for a tournament. Three games were played in addition to the regular meetings. The games were very close, and the teams evenly matched.
Field hockey closely follows soccer in importance for a fall sport. Practice is carried on under the direction of Miss Talbot. There seems to be something about the cold, crisp, fall air which invites the girls out in the open. Bruised ankles and skinned elbows add to the enjoyment of making goals over the “goalie’s” protests. The players developed much skill and technique and at the end of the season played brilliant play-off games.
Winter Sports
A RRANGEMENTS are made each year for the majors and minors of physical education to use the pool at the local Y.W.C.A. for class instruction under the direction of the physical director at the “Y”. Besides learning the various strokes and types of dives, members of the class are given many teaching hints which should prove very valuable. The W.A.A. sponsored several splash parties which were well attended.
Our dancing program consists of clogging, character, folk, and interpretive dancing. This past year the personnel has been extended to include the men majors of physical education. Before Christmas a project called, “The Toy Shop’’ was undertaken, in which original character dances for various types of dolls were composed.
A large group of girls enjoyed the beginning clogging class, and now have a variety of fundamentals which will enable them to appreciate rhythm as well as the more intricate steps.
lO ASKETBALL is the most popular sport during the winter months. This year after the tournament was held, it was decided to re-choose teams and have another series of play-off games. The teams were well-matched and each game proved to be more exciting than the previous one. The following captains were chosen as team heads for the regular tournament: Anita Zittleman, Gretchen Grimm, and Lorraine Magnussen. Rose Hafiz, Bernice Kaiser, and Virginia Robb captained the second group of games.
Much of the winter program for freshman classes consists of teaching fundamental skills and rules of the game.
The follow-up sport on our winter program is volleyball. It is offered immediately after the basketball season is over, and before other outdoor sports begin. This year three games were kept in progress at the same time and a high degree of interest was held throughout the season. Catherine O’Flaherty, Betty Jane Failing, and Anita Zittleman were chosen to captain the teams through the tournament.
spring Sports
As EARLY in the spring as is possible, tennis players are busy on the courts. Tournaments are scheduled and play-ofF games usually result in much excitement. Beginners’ instruction in tennis is given by Miss Talbot for W.A.A. credit, thereby providing recreation for “rec” enthusiasts and also giving would-be players the opportunity to get a start.
A sport that most girlsplay from childhood on retains its popularity in college, as is evidenced by the number of girls who come out to play baseball in spring. The smooth lawn on the campus facing Main Street provides an ideal setting for the games. Home-runs are not plentiful but interest is held high by the fine display of skills and technique.
Following in the footprints of Virginia Van Wie, a large group of our girls traverse the green at the Westfield Golf course. New clubs are furnished by the physical education department, which also secures tickets for students to use. Miss Pendergast gives beginners’ instruction in golf on the campus each year to acquaint new players with strokes and terms of the game.

Revenge
Just because they found me making love To the fairest of all lamp-post in this, our city, They clapped me in the hoosegow summarily, (not merrily, summarily!)
But I swear I’ll have revenge They cannot do a thing so dastardly
To such a one as me.
I’ll show ’em; I’ll go in my garden and eat some worms
And then I’ll die! summarily, (not merrily, summarily!)
Then they’ll be sorry they picked on me.
Those Shocking Electricians!
The electricians in our town gave an “amature” play last night. It was positively '‘re-volting." The orchestra played ''Watts the fuse" of worrying’?” and We "shunt" go home until morning. The heroine had her hair in "coils" and her eyes were as clear as "crystal". Although my "resistance" was strong, her "magnetism" was so great that I was "induced" to go up to meet her after theshow. She recited a poem, the "meter" of which was very bad, but we "field" pretty good just to have her up there. We were wishing she’d appear with greater "frequency."
There was a court scene, and when the judge asked, “What’s the 'charge"^" the answer was, "assault and 'battery ."
There was a slight Roman touch when the goddess of crops, "Series" was mentioned.
In one scene there was quite a commotion. This was natural, however, since they were just "electron" a president.
A doctor was examining a little boy. He said, “Make your "tungsten" out so I can look at it.” He shook his head a little and told the kid’s mother to be sure he got his daily supply of "protons."
The villain said, “I’m going to kill a cat.” The hero said, “You’re going to 'killowat’?" and then catchin, “You’d better not let that cat ‘dynamo’ because its been killed eight times before.”
In a train scene a "conductor" came around to collect tickets and "cell" candy.
The hero consulted a mystic who asked him, “What do you want me to do 'television V'
The hero was a detective who had worked himself from the "ground" up. In referring to his assistant, Solomon, he once remarked, 'Solenoid' find that guy if we could only a find a clue.”
In conclusion the orchestra played 'Ohm' Sweet 'Ohm'." The play was very rotten and I’m glad they’ve "switched" to another town. I understand they are going from town to town. I hope they have a "short circuit."
Don’t tell anybody, but I’m going to have a date with that heroine the next time "ammeter.
Saturday Night in a Small Town
SATURDAY night in a small town is a bizarre sight. The dweller of a large city misses an opportunity when he is not privileged to witness the mixture of hectic scurry or nonchalant loafing that prevails on the eve before the Sabbath.
Gayety is the keynote; no one is unhappy. The “missus” scuttles to and fro to see which one of the general stores will give the most in trade for her eggs and which emporium is offering the best bargains in gingham or taffeta. She is earnest about her work but still she has time to converse with the neighbor lady on the most adventitious way of pickling beets, or perhaps she will “requisition” a slip from her begonia plant it’s that lovely.
The older farmers, their leather faces tanned, wearing arm-bands and suspenders, with their sleeves rolled up only slightly above the wrists, are lounging around the cigar-store Indian. Their conversation is concerned with the latest “idee” in corn binders and eradicators of potato bugs. The general lightness of mood is betrayed in their tales about the guernsey calf or the bay colt, both of which are the “most larfable lil cusses yo’ ever saw.”
But the gay young bloods, hell-bent in a hurry and up to no good, are the ones who supply the real “yokel” color. They are either going to or coming from some place of high sin the theatre or ice-cream parlor. Theirs are the voices engaged in noisy persiflage and repartee he is a sluggard indeed who is not ready with a retort to any sally with dazzling speed. Typical of the taunts and banter is this; The red-headed country belle, growing slightly weary of all this cleverness, says with emphasis meant to stun, “Listen, bo! you can go too far with me.” The swain referred to, as indomitable as a cork in mercury, returns with true rustic brilliance, “When?”
This goes on and on, far into the night. If you’ve missed anything tonight, don’t feel bad. Just come around again next Saturday, and it will all be repeated same town, same people, and (alas!) the same wise-cracks.
What Has Become of Theodosia?
(Aaron Burr had a very beautiful daughter, Theodosia. She one time disappeared, so naturally everyone wondered what had become of her.)
“What has become of Theodosia?” The people all are asking. And we can’t do anymore than guess; The question is too tasking.
We looked into the sugar-bowl. And behind the cellar door And everywhere it looks as if Theo isn’t anymore.
We looked in the woodshed And down amongs’t the coal. And in the bathtub looked to see If maybe, she’d gone down the hole.
We looked most ev’rywhere, I guess E’en neath yon bushel basket. The question is, alas, too hard So why for do you ask it?
For further information see any good encyclopedia or MR. JEDERMAN.
Everything went rosy for John. He wrote letters, received letters, and between times worked on his studies. Suddenly however something went wrong. He didn’t get his answer to his last letter as promptly as he should have. He waited three whole days, determined to be firm. Then he wrote a letter, scorching in parts, begging and entreating in other places. He sent this special.
Dear Isabel,
If you think you can get me fussed by not answering my letters, you’d better get that idea out of your cute little head with a funny nose in front of it. If you think I miss them you’re mistaken the actual state of affairs is quite the contrary. I save a lot of time by not writing to you. The only thing is that writing letters has become a kind of habit that’s kinda hard to break but don’t think I’m feeling bad. You don’t mean that much to me.
Yours, (this offer good for a limited time only)
John
P.S. Under separate cover you will receive one (1) large box of stationery and one book of stamps. Please, please write to me. I’m so lonesome for you I can’t think, I can’t study I can’t do anything. I didn’t mean those things in the letter I just wanted to scare you a little.
J. B.
No reply. He waited what seemed an interminable week. Then came a letter with typewritten address, no return address, and signed a friend—all typewritten, completely anonymous.
It read:
Dear Mr. Brown, I may be considered nosey, but I feel it my duty to inform you that there are rumors of Miss Isabel Harmon’s engagement with Mr. Edmund Gross. My advice to you would be to return to your home town and find out just what is the status quo.
A FriendJohn was so perturbed that he stuffed four nightshirts, eighteen handkerchiefs, two shoes both odds, nary a shirt, tie, or change of underwear into an overnight bag and dashed down to the depot and climbed aboard the first train home and went so far as to go forward to the engine and urge the engineer to make all speed for his destination. He stepped off the train at Hazeldale, the home town, and saw Isabel walking blithely along resting her arm brazenly upon that of Mr. Gross. John tried to appear nonchalant and pretended that he had not seen them. He’d have been more successful had he taken the time to close his overnight bag and not have a streamer composed of the contents of the bag flaring out behind him. He looked too much like a kite to convey the effect of dignity he so much desired.
He hurried home and when he thought the beauty and the beast had finished their walk, he called up excitedly, “May I speak to Miss Harmon?’’
“This is she.’’
“Well you know d well who this is! Can I come over and hear you explain?’’
“Yes come over about five o’clock.’’
“Okay. So long!’’
He intended to be terse and abrupt but he failed. Somehow as soon as he heard her voice he couldn’t be angry for the life of him.
He strode over to her house determined to be very severe with her. He expected to find her feeling just a bit abashed, but there she was, at a tea table sitting as calm a Buddha. It was hard to be angry but he managed.
“What the dickens do you mean turning back on me like that. Are you going to marry Gross or not?’’
“Oh, John, bless your trusting little heart, no! I’d sooner go into a convent than marry that dolt. You just come up real close and I’ll whisper a secret.’’
Of course John came close, “real close.’’
“Listen you big booby, I framed this thing so that you’d get scared and come home. Now that you’re home you can take me to dance out at the Pine tonight. All I wanted to do was to get you home. I did and aren’t you glad? Am I so dumb as I look?’’
“No, you’re dumber, but I like ’em dumb.’’
From here on the conversation again became muffled and indistinct.
The End
“Poor John”
Aw GEE! I wish you didn’t have to go off to college tomorrow, John. I’m gonna be awfully lonesome.”
‘‘What do you think about me? Do you suppose I’ll be running around with those college women, when I’ve got my darlin’ little Isabel sitting home knittin’ wool socks for me when I’m fighting in the trenches with chemistry and trigonometry? Not on your life, honey bunch!”
‘‘Why you old rake to even think of going around with those hussies. If you do. I’ll crown you with ma’s new Dutch oven!”
‘‘Now listen here, young lady. Something of that nature goes for you too. If I even hear of you going around with that silly old bachelor. Gross, you’ll get your little behind paddled so hard you won’t be able to sit on whipped cream.”
‘‘Aw, John, you know I don’t likethat addled Edmund Gross. The only reason I ever go with him is because he takes me places where you’re always too broke to go. But if you say so, I will ¡point my mighty little index finger and say to him, ‘Go, you villian! and never darken our guest towel again’.”
‘‘Izzy, that crack’s so old its good. If you weren’t the star performer here I’d leave this ‘gol-dern theaytre’ and never patronize it again.”
The rest of the conversation was muffled and indistinct, but the gist of it was that they promised to be faithful, very faithful, and that they’d each write nice long letters.
The next morning John was down at the depot, his face still red, from cursing an obstinate suitcase which refused to close. The suitcase in question sat quite innocently by, looking like something which had a choice of being a sphere or a cube and had made a compromise, being both and neither. Isabel was there, of course, as were a considerable number of relatives who may as well not have existed for all the importance that they carried at that moment.
The train finally lumbered out of the station bearing our precious John who was so covered with lipstick that it was hard to tell whether he was an Indian with leprosy or a white man with measles. He was unaware of all the beautiful scenery he passed through; he didn’t notice the little towns on the way until he was startled into reality when the conductor gargled out “Middleton” which is a very nice name for a college town.
The days in college were busy, but never so hectic that they did not allow for frequent letters of prodigous length. They ran like this.
Sept. 18
Dear Izzy, Well, here I am in college. Hi dehi de ho! Rah, rah, rah, and all that tripe. I’m very busy, dear, taking entrance exams, finding a rooming place and, more important, finding a boarding place where I can get plenty of butter and meat. If you were around I could live on love pudding and water, but that stuff is no good when you’re out for football as I am. Tomorrow I have my first class.
Pray for me, Izzy. Your great big loving sweetheart, John
Sept. 20
Dear John,
Got your letter. Thanks. I miss you a lot already. I don’t see how I’ll be able to wait until Thanksgiving when you come home again. Edmund called up last night, but I said “nothing doing.” Do I get a kiss for that?
Yours, (& how), Isabel
Dear Izzy,
Sept. 22
You certainly do not get A kiss. You get a gross why can’t they get another word for 12 dozen instead of that one which has such a vulgar connotation? There was an initiation dance last night and the freshman men were given blind dates. You should have seen the hag I got stuck with. No competition for you there, baby. I’ve seen some dim bulbs in my time but this girl was so dim she could make a photographer’s dark room seem like a solarium. Don’t worry about me I’m your true blue.
Inside Dope on the Athletics
INSIDE dope is queer stuff. It is composed of various elements: hot spray from showers, soap, liniment, sweat, tail-stories and close harmony. It is hard to say which smells the worse.
When you step into locker rooms, you have cut yourself off from this world and you step into an entirely foreign environment. When you see the boys gayly romping around on the football field, basketball floor, or pacing on the cinder track you get a very much distorted view few people realize that these fellows aren’t just “athletes,” but that there are a large number of opera stars, novelists, poets, philosophers, masseurs among them with here and there a prevaricator thrown in for good measure.
If it’s tall stories you’re looking for, we suggest the tall lad from the land wherethe tall corn grows. You can always find “Little Lu” telling some sort of story by which he convinces himself and no one else that Iowa is a good state to live in. Then there are those hurdlers who tell about knocking off dimes at the beginning of the season when they’re still nasty (not the dimes, the hurdlers) and gradually working down to the point where they can just scratch the enamel on the hurdles as they go over.
But it is in the line of music that we have our best performers, although some people would take exception to that statement. If you can find Don Zim, the chances are that you will find him in the center of a trio or quartet which is concentrating earnestly on something like the “Drunkard Song” or “Down by the Old Mill Stream.” Oh, those melodies bring the tears to your eyes if you only think of how they should be sung. We also have solo, performers, although they’d prefer notto have their names mentioned here. The only fella who!!! came right out and acknowledged that he’s good is A1 Berg, and he’s no singer he’s a yodeler.
This little clan is affected by one strange malady, “shin splints.” Only a very few of us know what it is but we’ve all got it. The ailment has a habit of cropping up whenwe’ve been working pretty hard and feel that we need a rest.
If some athlete should have to drop out of school, the people mourn, “Too bad, he’s a good man with the discus,” but we of the tepid catacombs mourn differently. “There goes the best little second tenor on the squad.”
Dorm Life
Have you ever seen a cliff honey-combed with swallows nests? And did you ever notice what a flutter is caused when you walk by? Well, a cliff’s got nothing on these here new dormitories. All a fella has to do is to walk his best girl down any one of the walks on the quadrangel and he has started a hubbub which will last until the next poor sap is so bold as to walk in that valley of the shadow. (Who is the shadow that’s just it who is he? If we knew gr-r-r).
When S.F.B. Morse boasted that he would put a girdle around the earth in twenty minutes he certainly had never heard of dorms. If Morey Halls and Shepard Halls were placed end to end around the world it would, of course be silly, but that’s not the point. We’ll wager that news (providing it were gossip) would flit around the world in a split-second.
One of the great indoor sports at the dorms is kicking about the quantity and quality of food, and yet those same persons manage to keep themselves “pleasingly plump.’’ Some persons actually take salts to get rid of the fat they put on by not eating enough. That’s hardly paradoxical it’s goofy.
Then there is the washline. One of West Lodges favorite games is to stand near it and pick out which girls must have laundered. Of course this is a lewd sport and should not be engaged in.
The dormitories are filled with so diverse a collection of people that it is difficult to make any statement which will apply to all of them. The only thing that can be said is this, and its an awfully old crack; “If all the people who eat at Morey Hall were put end to end they would reach.

spring Days in Class
On days like this the world all drowses; I see a million vari-colored blouses But they’re only spots before my eyes. The prof is one of those long-winded guys And in spite of all the coffee I can take I still must fight to keep awake.
I dig my nails into my palms (This day is like an opiate) And yet I cannot keep awake (Must be something that I ate.)
The air is heavy, my blood is thin (I’ve forgotten now which class I’m in) But here’s a hint how dry this class is— ’Twould make Sahara seem’n oasis.
The meter of this “pome” is hazy, But if you were I, you too’d be lazy. What with listenin’ to a din Of some subject dry as sin Whooh! I’m all in!!!
Now ev’rthings far off and dim, ‘Prof’ is talking but don’t mind him
He’ll say that stuff tomorrow, again. And tomorrow I will sleep again.
“The Tie that Binds”
lOLESSED be the tie that binds, but, oh far more blessed is he that binds it. That was evident by the thought that went through the mind of an illustrious inebriate (“drunk” to you!) of this fair city one night last May.
When I met him he was having considerable difficulty in the business of tying his cravat, which is a highly complimentary name for the thing he wore!
Well, there I was faced with a problem; a tie that should be tied but wasn’t. What was I to do?
He claimed that he had become so accustomed to tying ties of the jazz-bo type that he had utterly forgotten how to tie this other type. I tied the tie for him, which task was but a simple matter. I carried it all through with the greatest solemnity, and made it all seem very mysterious and complicated. I may even have said a few incantations to heighten the effect, but I couldn’t be sure one never is, you know.
When I had finished he was as grateful as a pup just out of a bath. If he’d have had a kingdom he’d have given me half of it, but I think I’d have held out for his daughter. (Dearie, you know I wouldn’t. I only say those things to be funny.) Not having one of those things (a kingdom) he offered me his next best:
“Want a drink son?”
“No thanks. You see I’m an athlete up to the Teachers College and I got to keep training.”
Then he felt my biceps, evidently dubious as to whether anyone with a physique like mine could possibly be an athlete. I think he was still wondering when he said,
“Well, keep it up, kid. That’s great stuff! You’ll get somewhere someday!
Then I passed on feeling very inspired. It’s little things like that that make life more pleasant.
An aged mother was scolding her oldest boy for some of his bad habits. “Ain’t you shamed of yerself,’’ she exclaimed, “to be chawin’ terbaccer an’ smokin’ that ole pipe? You is jest aruinin’ your health!’’
“But, listen. Ma,’’ replied her son, “I’m past seventy years old, ain’t I?’’
“Yes, you is,’’ admitted the mother, “but maybe if you didn’t chaw and smoke you’d be ninety by now.’’
