The graduating classes present this annual for the enjoyment of those to whom it has a very meaningful interest. We depart with the thought that our places which we have considered so important will not be forgotten, and will be very capably filled by our successors. We feel therefore, that our absence will not be too keenly felt.
We trust that this Annual will so well record our activities that in the future we may recall with pleasure our college experiences. With the poet we deeply feel that "The web of life is of a mingled yarn, good and ill together."
We dedicate this annual with sincere appreciation to him who has been our constant friend and willing helper, who has given us a broader view of life, and who has encouraged us to attain the highest. It is with gratitude and respect that we inscribe this volume to one who has laughed with us and has made our college life truly delightful.

Every organization has its President. We are fortunate in having as ours one who is very active in educational circles. A tireless worker for the college which has now become his life. Dr. Mehus exemplifies at his work the true administrator. Vast energy, ceaseless purpose, vital ambition— these are characteristics of a leader; Winona's president is a true leader.
He has demonstrated his tolerance of student opinion by his readiness and willingness to listen to our suggestions.
New and stimulating courses have beenadded to the curriculum, always with the thought that we may receive a more liberal education.
There is a quintessence to every song we learn to sing, every art object we are inspired to make, and and every dance we learn to do. This strange material is also found when we learn to speak our languages correctly, when we learn about the universe and how men adjust to one another. This quintessence which source is the ideals, thoughts, and knowledge of our instructors is given so unselfishly and so cheerfully to us. It serves as the basic ingredient which makes W. S. T. C. such a friendly college, such an intellectual college, and a college where happiness is the key.
"Student teaching", perhaps we should call it "a course in the fine points of understanding children", because our instructors at Phelps teach us just that. These fine people will show you how to make a child happy where under less skillful hands he would be very sad. They will show you the technique of teaching facts so that children are eager to learn. The Phelps people teach, by example, the secrets to success, friendliness, and happiness.
Registrar, nurse, librarian, and office staff is another way of saying patience, cheerfulness, helpfulness, and efficiency at Winona State Teachers College. These people are the ones to go to if you: wish to pay your board bill, barter one class for another, get an excuse slip, pay a library fine, or see the president. They will always help you out.

Pauline Maride Ava Schultz Dorothy WeidmanIn the family, "juniors" are named after their dads. In Winona, juniors are hopeful patterns of their superiors, the seniors. (Academic superiors, of course!)
Talent in the junior class runs high, if we wish to judge from the officers only. The class is strongly athletic, we predict, for its president is Robert Eastin, its vice-president, Charles Duncanson, whose names and pictures are sure to be on any Winona sports page. Music, so fine a force at Winona, is represented among junior officers by two Mendelssohn girls, Irene Sacket, junior secretary and Carol Bard, representative council member; and by Fred Heyer, treasurer, an orchestral man in his own right. Sportsmanship and school spirit has its place among junior officers in a former cheerleader, Mary Jane Martin, also a representative council member for the juniors. Dr. Minne is adviser.

The Greeks had a word for it, and it was sophomore: sophos, meaning wise; mores, a fool, foolish ( !) This class at Winona (and everywhere else) doesn't care to be reminded of the name's origin. In fact, it is probable that they did not know!
Sophomores form a house divided. There are thosewho graduate as two-year students, and those who seek degrees. They are a hardy lot for they have withstood a rigorously new freshman year and bravely face two years more of light and dark school days.
But sophomores—take heart. The wisest men and women may be those who know that sometimes also they are the foolish ones!
Class officers are: president, William Raymond; vice-president, Doris Johnson; secretary, Maryidine Windhorst; treasurer, Ruth Kjos; representative council, William Raymond, Albert Posy; adviser, Mr. Boots.

Each year they come, from a wide variety of places, far and near. From distant homes, Saskatchewan, Oklahoma, Montana, New York, North and South Dakota—these have furnished freshmen. From almost every county in Minnesota, from Iowa, Wisconsin, from cities, towns, villages; from rural areas; from interestingly different homes, from fine families.
Always the freshman class is largest of all, for it is from this grain that the grist of graduates is finally ground in the college mill. Here is youth, hopeful, cheerful, a little undecided, but testing, in their first year at Winona, the thirst after knowledge.
For the hundreds of freshmen who annually register in Somsen Hall, the trails of experience are often first flayed. It is no joke—this homesickness, this strangeness, this scurrying to adjust to a new pattern— classes, library, chapel, activities, initiation, new companions.

Hungerford.And, bitter as it may seem, many freshmen are destined to spend a year or less in Winona. Such is the price of an educational mill: that some must serve as husks and hulls, mostly through no fault of their own.
Yes, freshmen are looked down upon, but since all are at one time in that class it is a mild, pleasant sort of inferiority which these new people enjoy. Even the most "superior seniors" must admit the fine necessity of freshmen. They bring new blood, new life into a group that is vital and rich because it changes. And so—though they be terribly green, though they wear purple caps each fall, and do "double button to upper classmen—a salute to all good freshmen!
This year's officers were: president, Dick Ashley;vice - president, Ann Boyum; secretary - treasurer, Maynard Gabrielson; advisers. Miss Robb, Dr. Biesanz.

Well, we've spent another year at school, And learned right many a thing; We've come on happiness and thrill
That new friends always bring; We've tramped in snow that banked the walks. We've hurried in the rain.
And bred a hope within ourselves
That we'll come back again.
We've made our friends in funny ways; They come by chance—or fate;
"I saw her in the chorus once. And then we had a date."
"And he and took history."
"And met him in the play"
"And he's the one that helped me with my science one Spring day."
We leaned against the lockers and We whistled in the halls.
We made sarcastic faces
At the pictures on the walls; We scoffed at chapel and at lunch.
Bad manners often plain
But all are hoping that next year We'll be back here again.
And then for those who won't be back. The ones who graduate. It always seems to me quite sad
To watch them sit and wait;
To see that lump come in their throat. Their heart and facial pain.
As way down deep they want to shout That they'll be back again.
—F. Foss.
Silence masterful silence intricately delicate flakes falling sadly to earth.
Silence stinging silence swish, swish of grass, footsteps walking away.
Silence peaceful silence pit—-pit splash of rain on a new-dug grave.
—C. H. Bierce.I burned them last night. One by one I threw them on the blazing logs.
Long cherished dreams— My love and yours— Written so tenderly. So meaningly on bits of paper.
Your letters, picture, notes. Everyone of them A part of you.
In doing it—I burned my heart. Seared yours, too— But you never knew— You never felt the flame Leap up and lick your heart.
I wish I hadn't done it! The curling papers grinned at me. A spitful, taunting smile.
Ah, fool ! they seemed to say. You've lost him now. No part of him is left for you.
The fire died. And, soaring far beyond my reach And crisp—burnt love— And you.
—C. H. Bierce.Lovely silver night. Flecked with thousand twinkling stars And frothy cobweb filigree.
Ravelled clouds outspread. Revealing therethe frosty moon. So austere and so bright.
Softly weep, and wind
A scarf of silver round the throat Of Daphne leaning o'er the brook.
—H. Parker.
Deriving its name and inspiration from Cardinal Newman, the Newman Club functions as the organization for Catholic students of the college. Religious, educational, and social aims bring the members numbering about forty, to meetings held the third Sunday of each month, with Study Club Meetings twice monthly in addition. Father O'Day carries on discussions with members of the group.
ThreeCommunion Breakfasts, a tea for all Catholic students, and a Christmas party were among the group's activities this year.
For officers the Newman Club has: president, Dorothy Wiler; vice-president, Jerome Hoeppner; secretary, Deloris Busse; treasurer, Lloyd Walsh; adviser. Dr. Ella Clark.
If you girls have never had a "sticker" you had better join the Y. W. C. A. next year—for here you'll learn what they are and how much fun they are even if you have to guess who they are.
Each year every girl draws a name and during the rest of the year is remembered on birthdays, holidays etc. by her "sticker" or the girl who drew her name. At the end of the year the "sticker's" identity is revealed.
Besides being a social organization, the Y. W. C. A. is a work group; its purpose is one of service.
Miss Richards and Miss Cramer are advisers. Officers are: president, Irene Stransky; vice-president, Phyllis Guy; secretary, Margaret Little; treasurer, Ruth Swendiman.

Others will remember the group for the Christmas cards, or the candy sold by club members.
Activities of the organization are both business-like and social. Two of the year's important events apart from the continued interest in the way of little minds and hands of children, were the teas, one given in honor of Miss Louise Sutherland who retired last year from the faculty, the other given by Mr. Robert R. Reed to carry on the tradition began by the late Mrs. Reed's mother, an early kindergarten teacher here.
Officers of the club are: president, Eunice Hansen; first vice-president, Rosewayne Stephenson; second vice-president, Marcella Glasrud; third vice-president, Bonnie Nash; secretary, Janice Warly; treasurer, Helen Standinger.

Several fine lectures are presented each year. The club plans to entertain another educational club of the school, and this year, the Intermediate Grade Club was entertained. "Hi-Lights" of the program were an illustrated lecture on the "Wonders of New York" by Mr. Reed and songs by the Busse trio. Other activities were a banquet in the spring, a Book Week Program, a Christmas play, and a Valentine party.

International peace and brotherhood in 941 sound like a big and rather far-fetched order, but at least one organization in Winona Teachers College clings firmly to such ideas. This is the International Relations Club, one of a large number of similar units organized under the Carnegie Endowment for International peace.
Membership in the local group is limited to thirty-five students interested in the unbiased study of domestic and foreign affairs, and who meet once each month for discussion and reports. An unusual feature of this year's I. R. C. activities was the presentation before the entire student body of a panel of special reports on the present war. Regular meetings of the I. R. C. are pleasantly diversified with debates, panel discussions, guest speakers and reviews of books on vital problems sent to theclub by the Carnegie Endowment.
Officers of the club are: president, H. Rosencranz; vice-president, Cyril Allen; secretary, Irene Stransky; treasurer, Charles Balcer; adviser. Dr. Selle.
A wizard in his fantastic laboratory could produce no marvels more fascinating than the every-day wonders about which the interests of the Science Club center. Scientific hobbies of the student members find creative expression in the Science Night exhibit. May 6th this year, where the spirit of the times is revealed in the chemistry of industry, the miracle of the test tube, and the absorbing secrets—physical, chemical, geological, biological—of our life and world.
Senior members of the club undertook a new venture this year in the visit to major industrial and scientific plants of Milwaukee, Madison, and Chicago.
Dr. Raymond and Dr. Minne are club advisers. The officers are: president, Ethel Meyer; vicepresident, Paul Adamson; secretary-treasurer, Francis Hatfield; and program chairman, Henry Duel.

"Stuporman'' and ''everything that is right and just" triumphed at this year's Die-No-Mo Show, "Caught in the Draft", presented Feb. 26.
"Caught in the Draft" was a take-off on army life, opening with a radio broadcast from Station RVOK of "Drafts, the National Lottery," under the sponsorship of Smellsafter Soap. The plot thickened thereafter, with a villian trying to steal the proverbial "secret plans", and Stuporman very wittingly trapping the culprits. Several original Songs by Henry Duel and Fred Heyer and acts ranging from a clarinette quartette to KernelKorn and his Hobblers, were special features of the show.
Faculty sponsors of the Die-No-Mo Club are: Dr. Minne, Dr. Murphy, Mr. Reed, Dr. Selle. Officers are: president, Henry Duel; vice-president, Ethel Meyer; secretary-treasurer, Barbara Kissling.

Long hours at rehearsals, painstaking work on "sets" and costumes brought at length the fall production of the players, Dan Totheron's "Moor Born", the haunting life story of the Bronte sisters.
To those members of the organization whose hard work and interest have made especially helpful contributions to the success of Wenonah Players, Guard memberships are awarded by means of a point system. To Dr. Gladys Lynch, Dr. Ella Murphy, advisors of Wenonah Players, must be given the award of those who serve well.
Officers of the organization are C. Balcer, president; A. Grier, vice-president; L. Sanden, secretary; H. Duel, treasurer; M. J. Martin, corresponding secretary.
In the studio a signal for silence is given. The sound effects man glances over his equipment. A musical theme fades out, and the announcer says, "The Winona State Teachers College Radio Workshop presents. The House of Seven Gables,' a dramatic adaptation of Hawthorne's famous novel." The half-hourthat follows such an announcement from seven to seven-thirty on Thursday evenings, over KWNO is typical of the activities of this alert student organization seriously interested in the production of radio programs. Announcing, acting, sound effects, and often the writing of the scripts used are done by members of the group, in cooperation with station KWNO.
Membership in the group is based upon cornpetitive tryouts. Dr. Lynch is the adviser. Officers are; president, N. Van Devanter; vicepresident, Elizabeth Donath; secretary, Ruth Story; treasurer, Ray Johnson; publicity director, Chârîes Balcer.

The orchestra gives chapel concerts several times each year, playing selections of several composers as Grieg, Tschaikowsky, Rubenstein, and Stephen Foster.
The orchestra, which meets twice weekly, is under the direction of Mr. Langum and officers of the club are: president, Robert Walters; vicepresident. Elide Varani; librarian, Ruth Flanigan; secretary-treasurer. Fern McKnight.
1-2-3-4, a familiar sound from the band regions of Somsen Hall, far down there the band meets three days each week. The band gives students who play instruments an opportunity for group work and also familiarizes them with music suitable for junior and senior high schools.
At football games the thirty members of the band, with cold and numbed fingers, chilled feet and red ears, play valiantly on helping to cheer the boys to victory. From one corner of the gym at basketball games you may hear the boom, boom, of the bass drum and the squeaking of the clarinets.
As a college tradition, the band gives a concert each year in chapel. One of the outstanding selections played this year was the “Poet and Peasant Overture" by Suppe.
Mr. Langum is director of the band and is assisted by Mr, Clyde High.
Officers are: president, Winston Wells; vice-president, John Flanigan; and librarian, Dorothy Speltz.

Weekly radio programs sponsored and participated in by Mason Music Members were cancelled for a time owing to the difficulties about acceptable music.
Outside musical programs, however, such as the Winona Choral Club Concert, are still held under the sponsorship of the Mason Music organization. Social meetings are also a part of the yearly program in this group where "music is king."
Officers are: president, Carol Bard; vicepresident, Planetta Lang; secretary-treasurer, Jean Ostrom; adviser, Mr. Grimm.

Those worthy, students who have maintained a scholastic average of 1.70, participated in at least two extra-curricular activities, and have completed 28hours of college work, are eligible for Kappa Delta Pi, a national honor society in education.
The Gamma Tau Chapter of our college holds monthly meetings at which persons prominent in education address the club and at which student discussions are fostered. Because knowledge, duty and power are embodied in the Greek letters Kappa Delta Pi, those students elected strive to attain these aims and to promote a high esteem for teaching as a profession.
Readers, don't believe that these students are merely a "brain trust" and study all the time. They are human like the rest of us and have their share of good times too.

Purple—color of royalty, symbolic of honor—signifies honor in the college for those students who offer the greatest promise of fulfilling the ideals of the teaching profession. Membership in Purple Key is awarded annually to a very few members of the student body upon the basis of excellent scholarship and helpful participation in extra-curricular activities. The organization is entirely honorary; there are no officers, no meetings. Yet membership in Purple Key is sought as the highest honor of Winona State Teachers College.

Very interesting it is to sit in on a monthly meeting where subjects under discussion range from subscribing to the Greek war relief fund, and inclusion of the annual cost in the tuition fee, to locker segregation.
Being the medium through which the student body acts, the members of this governing body are elected from the four classes.

W. A. A. stands for Women's Athletic Association, but more than that, the letters stand for clean, health-giving sport for all women of the college who are members. Typical of the club's vigorous and vital program was the participation of twenty-three young women in the annual Play Day held this year at Mankato State T. C. Girls who like soccer, speedball, hockey, basketball, volleyball, softball, and other sports like the W. A. A.
The Association is governed by the elective Women's Athletic Board of nine members. Officers of the board are: president, Shirley Snyder; vice-president, Ruth Fakler, and secretary-treasurer, Doris Johnson; Advisers are Miss Andrews and Miss Robb.
'I he athletics activities carried out by the men vary from inter-collegiate activities to intramural games of volleyball, basketball, and activities of a lower organization.

"All women physical education majors and minors please report in room 134." The purpose of the club IS to promot a feeling of unity among the members of the group and to raise the standards and ideals in physical education. The year's program of work consisted of study meetings and play meetings in whichclub members engaged in seasonal sports.
The club has devoted twenty years of service to the promotion of professional interests among its members.
The officers are: President, Ann Martin; Vice-president, Virginia Towner; SecretaryTreasurer, Carmen Spande; Advisers are Miss Andrews and Miss Robb.
You've heard of the board of governors? Well, the Intramural Board is like that. This group, consisting of the Captain or Co-Captains of the basketball team and a representative of each of the four classes, regulates and controls the boys' intramural athletic events. Through such activities a wider and more informal participation is secured in such sports as volleyball, basketball, and tennis.
This year's board was made up of; cocaptains, Charles Duncanson and Ed Spencer; senior, Alvin Flint; junior, Eldon Brandt; sophomore, Gordon Hansen; freshman, Gordon Schellhas.
Coach Biesanz was faced with the problem of molding a tennis team from the few but interested aspirants. Those returning from last year's competition were E. Siebold, B. Raymond, and N. Van Deventer. The first game of the year was played against Luther College. Other games played were with La Crosse and Eau Claire in out of state competition. Mankato was the only other teachers college that tried its powers against the purple and white team. The season closed with an intra-city match played against St. Mary's College.
Left to Right: C. Balcer, W. Murbach, N. Van Deventer, Dr. Biesanz, E. Siebold, W. Raymond.
The loss of Captain James Davidson and Charles Libby of last season made quite a hole to fill this year. Although this was hard to do many newcomers and the veterans from last year did a very fine job. The veterans back were Captain Kalbrenner in the hurdles, Duncanson in high hurdles, DeLano in the discus and shot put, Bucky Walters and Clawson in distances, Carlson and Rich (letter winner of two years ago) low hurdles, Sulack in middle distances. Don ZimmerhakI, a tracj<. star of a few years ago, was back for non-conference competition and did very well.

Although the percentage column of victories and losses leaned heavily towards the latter, the basketball team did display a lot of fight and courage before subduing. It was in that manner that the Peds overcame their tremendous height disadvantage to eke out victories over Bemidji and Duluth, conference leaders at that particular time. With the teams midgets, Arns and Spencer, as the only graduates, next year's team carries a lot of potentialities.

Mr. Fisk took over the reins as baseball coach vacated by Mr. Pawelek who is away at school studying for a doctor's degree. Coach Fisk was left with eight lettermen, including Brandt, catcher, Wood, third base, L. Arns, second base and outfield, Flynn, third base, Eastin, E. Spencer, R. Johnson, and G. Peterson, outfield. Bob Arns was the only regular pitcher who returned.
With the loss of such stars as Ralph Spencer, catcher and outfield, Kaczrowski, short stop, D. Johnson, last year's captain and first base, and John Jozwiak, pitcher, the team was weakened considerably but with the eight veterans back and many promising freshmen the team showed up very well.

Brandt, R. Luhmann, B. Bartel, V. Wood, L. Schwark. Fourth Row: R. Johnson, L. Arns, J. Flynn, G. Peterson, G. Hanson, Coach Fisk.
Through the coaches' poll Milt Roelofs received first team recognition, Ted Siirila received second team recognition, and Joe Flynn and Joe Clawson received honorable mention.
As was predicted last year it was found a very difficult task to build a new backfield comparable to Kaezrowski, Andrejek, and Ralph and Eddie Spencer. However the veteran line was a source of encouragement to Coach Jackson and the team.
From the standpoint of wins and losses the season was not too successful. The records show one win, one tie, and four losses. Evidence of the team's power was shown in the several close games and the third quarter drive in the Moorhead game when the Warriors scored 19 points.
Outstanding this year was the guard play of Siirila and Captain-elect Joe Flynn, center play of Libby and Eastin, newly discovered triple-threat backs.
In passing, a word of congratulation should be extended Mr. Jackson for the fine job of coaching and an expression of appreciation to the student body for their cooperation during the season. Mention should also be made of the reserve team coached by Mr. Fisk which won three games and lost its fourth by one touchdown.
Greatly missed next year due to graduation will be Captain Milt Roelofs, end; Campion and Walsh, tackles; Einhorn and Ollom, guard; Libby, center; Kalbrenner and Spencer, backs.

A veritable treasury of activities lie at hand for those who are members of the Art Club. Decorations glittering, frosty Christmas ones, peppy, spirited ones for Homecoming, lovely, festive ones for the Prom, become creative art for the club members.
Original murals painted on the walls of a new work-room are a genuine contribution to the college. There are work meetings where those of eager interest and tried ability concern themselves with puppetry, sculpture, weaving, and sketching. And there are study meetings where pottery, tapestry, famous paintings and other works of art are made real to the students.
The club's officers are: president, Elizabeth Green; vice-president, Eileen Bordin; secretary, Eva Lou Russell; treasurer, Vivian Pederson; adviser. Miss Crossman.
How can we as wheels in the great machine of democracy best do our part? This, in substance, is the question young women of the college must ask themselves and seek intelligently for its answer, if they are to be good members of the college League of Women Voters. The League, a non-partisan organization started at Winona in 1929, believes that political education is necessary to the success of a democratic form of government.
Seven delegates from the local group attended the annual League of Women Voters Convention held on October 18-19 at Mankato.

Established to promote good-fellowship and interest in a foreign country, the club has also served to combine culture with fun right here in the Winona State Teachers College. Next year, with increasing finances, the club plans to attend University plays and out-of-town performances. So in the words of the French "bonne chance" and "au revoir," which mean good luck and we'll be seeing you, we hope!
"Today I am a man" might well be the cry of certain male college students following initiation ceremonies for the Men's Club. Not until the raw recruits nominated by club members have undergone the tricks played upon them by their superior fellows have they a right to be called "men."
As its purpose the Men's Club has the bringing together of a group of college men students for social functions, recreation, and entertainment. The manly ushers who assist you at baseball games are the proud wearers of the purpie and white insignia of the club. It costs you no dues to belong.

Jeepers Creepers, that Jeep sure got his peepers full when he peeped into Morey Hall. It wasn't any Jeep entertainment, either! It was 6:30 in the living room,—6:25 elsewhere. (Yes, the Grandfather clock was still fast!) Well, the Jeep was in the music cabinet looking through the keyhole. There was Elide all keyed up at the piano. Mary Martin was looking on with a dropped jaw and "how-does-she-do-it" expression. Fern was awaiting her chance to fiddle around a bit. And lo, (very low)who was that under the table? Oh, just a couple of the officers. No. they weren't searching for anybody; they were just trying to find out what it would be like to sleep in a bunk. (Yeh, they decided it was the bunk all right. ) Just off the living room—to the left as you enter—the inmates of No. 10 were going into competition with Elide with some "Boguey-Woogie" music.
Jeepers, what was that? Only the beginning of study hours. Scatter! Clear the living room! Quiet! Okey, okey, but can't a visiting Jeep even look around a little? In a flash he was out of the music cabinet and perched on the fireside davenport looking longingly up at that gorgeous vase of flowers. Could they be orchids? and so many of them! Yes, a little nourishment might help.Orange orchids. Oh, Boy! What? Only crepe paper, huh? Graft, corruption! Bah! Well, maybe something would turn up on second floor. (Usually does!) Vanish the Jeep. He next found himself up one flight. The first sign that met his eye was STUDY HALL AND PUBLICATION ROOM. The Morivue staff was at work. The furrowed-browed editress was lunching on a pencil while she resignedly rewrote the articles. Quote: "Morey Hall formal, eh? That's what you think. No date, no formal. Can't compete with the Off Campus Club. Say, where are all our typists?"
"They can't work on the paper tonight. Have to study."
"Oh, freshmen, eh?"
What happened? Inky darkness. Was it a blackout? Then a shriek, "Quiet ! Study hours," and in a lower tone, "Shut up you rats!" The
Jeep sat down to wait, and he waited—and he waited—eons passed. A half dozen doors along the hall opened. A row of creamed faces and curlered heads appeared. Horrors! What was them? Then came the light. The "things" withdrew behind the doors—most of which were slammed. Funny place!
The Jeep proceded. Here was a door that read GOOD HOUSKEEPING. So? Well, he'd see. But the door wouldn't open, so being a Jeep, he went in anyway. He found the door blocked with shoes, books, clothes, etc. and an empty box from the florists. Flowers? Orchids, maybe! Peering around through the conglomeration he spied a huge bouquet on the table. Making his way through the maze he found that the attached card read, "Happy Birthday, Eunice. Bob." Shucks, no orchids!
Why not try your luck on third? No sooner said than done. My, how cozy! "Tish" is the place for me (Don't be too hasty—you haven't heard Lehner yet! Nor will you.) Just then there was a great clanging of bells, tinkling bells, iron bells, muffled bells, timid bells. Was it a fire, an accident, a burglary?—"For whom were the Bells Tolling anyway?"
"House meeting! House meeting!" everybody was yelling.
What did they mean by that? How could the house be meeting anything? He hadn't felt the hall moving! Now he was down in the lobby again. From all sides more of the "things" came pouring into the room. They all squatted Indian fashion around the fireplace. Weren't they even going to try to escape this meeting? Then it was plain to him—the "things" were meeting. Someone found the Last Chord on the piano and struck it to get attention. It seemed the girls had been appropriating food again from the dining room and ringing in late as usual. But food —v/hy must everything remind him of food when he was dying for an orchid! He couldn't bear it any longer. He vanished from the scene. Pausing on the doorstep to reflect, he concluded that although :
They're dying to get into Morguey Hall, It ain't so "Morguey" after all!
Who am I to philosophize About a lot of other guys; I find myself a hard enough Gem to dig from out the rough.
One of the youngest clubs in the school, the Science Club has, in its four years of existence, steadily grown to be one of the most active and outstanding clubs in the school. This year, the Science Club undertook its second Science Night, an exhibition open to the public but designed mainly to be of value to the Science Club members in preparing them for future positions. The departments of physics, chemistry, geology, and biology all contributed to the outstanding success of the second Science Night.

The Jeep was tired, and seeking quiet and refinement, he stumbled out of Morey Hall completely exhausted. He wandered into the tranquility of Shepard Hall and almost immediately spied Virginia Reed, Gerry Feda, Miss Richards, and Irene Anderson playing that profound game of games, that test of endurance, "Don't Get Mad"! In the other direction he heard some beautiful music. He hastened down the hall and slipped into the living room. There at the grand piano was seated Joan, pouring her heart into "Beat Me Daddy Eight to the Bar". He decided that he wanted to see more, so he peeked down stairs into the social room. The phonograph was playing but no one was dancing. He peered a little closer into the dusky room and saw several indistinct shapes of people huddled closely around the machine, intently listening to the music. He couldn't see who they were so he turned around an went up to second floor. He saw lots of people there. They were so busy they didn't notice him. He noticed them though. One girl had red hair, nice red hair, and they called her Adelaide. He'd like to know her. There was another almost as short as he. He'd like to know her too. He looked on the door of the room she went into and saw the names, Kurzweg and Schlesselman. She must be the first, because the name fit, being the "short way" auf Deutsch. About that time the lights wentout. He heard somebody say something about a "blackout", so he scurried for cover. When the lights finally went on, he found himself in a room that seemed to be deserted. Sure enough, it was Gunderson's and Beebe's. On the door he saw a sign stating: "Ladies (?) Rest Room, Inspected 2 times evry 7 Daze by the Helth Suspec-
We don't blame the Jeep for wondering when he looked in and saw Roger-the-Lodger— 6'4" in his S'lO" bed. How does he do it?
And will he ever forget the bedlam raised in the social room when "Twgg" (Wayne to you) starts playing his two favorite records—"The Grasshopper Polka" and "Beer Barrel Polka in Waltz Time".
The Jeep overheard Mickey giving his definition of the old saying "3 times and out"! It's when you call Shepard Hall, you hafta call 3 times before they'll go out!!!
And what resident of West Lodge goes in quite heavily for bird lore? We understand he's studying de Plover this quarter!!!
The Jeep stayed over-night in January in Room No. 6—there was plenty of room since
ter. Signed, Society for the Prevention of Lizards." That scared him, for he was a gentleman Jeep and it wouldn't do to take any chances in a place like that. As he came out of the room he received another shock when he saw a sign on the door across the hall. This one said "Boundary Game Refuge, No Hunting Allowed, State of Minnesota Department of Conservation, Division of Game and Fish" in big black bold letters. Dear, dear, who lives here? Currer and Feda were the names. The first sounded like some kind of animal but the second was no fish! Well, this was no place for Jeeps, and he hurried up the dark stairs to third floor. He crept along quietly and pretty soon he saw a fairy-like maiden come tripping down the hall. It was Lorraine Spitzack. "Look everyone," she caroled in her high, sweet soprano. "Look! I'm so proud of Joseph! He has his picture in the paper!" Then he pricked up his sharp little ears at the sound of some lovely violin music floating out of the study hall. He heard a girl in the adjoining room call to the girl across the hall, "Don't you think Sackett plays extremely well for a beginner? I just couldn't study without 'Row, Row, Row Your Boat' for accompaniment! Could you?" The music was so restful that he began to get sleepy. Just then a tall, motherly-looking girl noticed him and said, "You poor dear, you look so tired. I'd better put you to bed." She picked him up by the nape of the neck and carried him off to her room. She tucked him away in one of the numerous boxes stacked away in her closet and labelled R. L. S. He found himself being wafted off to slumberland by the soothing smell of moth balls. Thus ended the adventures of the Jeep in Shepard Hall.
Agnes and Gladys started sleeping together those cold nights ! ! !
The Jeep was aroused one morning with a terrible racket. It seems that Ski-Foot took his "Boogie-Woogie Bugle Boy" to heart and played reville with a boogie-beat.
Warning: All Jeeps get out of the way between Morey Hall Dining Roomand West Lodge every day after lunch and dinner. The reason is that there are 9 fellows to play cards (whist) and only 4 places.
All that Roger askes nowadays since he got his car here is that Chuck Baker DOESN'T ask him to use it. Seems to be a matter of a bent fender, 'er somethin'!!!
Well, good night. As the mule said as he slipped in his stall : "Here's where hit the hay ! !
"\ like a day off myself. Don't come to conference." Owens
"Put your chairs any old way. Just so you're comfortable." Scarborough

We Jeeps are the most curious creatures. We know all and see all. Just the other day flited by the corner of Fifth and Huff and spied that fine brick edifice called Lucas Lodge. So I just ups a.nd glides through a window pane and lights on the radiator in a big tile floored room with chrome leather chairs. Not a bad joint says I. I slips up beside the two guys beside the fireplace. Kolmeyer and Jackson at chess again— their one reason for living. just got nicely settied in a crack in the bricks when beautiful music drifted in from the west according to my compass. So I ups and wades through the carpet into the living room. Ah, Strauss, Baesler's playing his records again and Boy! would you look at the angelic faces all around. I stayed for the entire concert and then set my altitude indicator for one floor up. whizzed through the ceiling molicules and came up through the floor boards in l-he front room. Gee! this floor is wet. Water fights again, mixed with Ollom and Johnson going at it hot and heavy about the merits and demerits of the army and navy.
I eased myself through the English imported wallpaper into the center room. Goody! Goody! give me a ring side. Another ink smear between Rich and Hanson (Schoening's kids). A most unique idea says I to my self—wrestling with inky hands.
Screeching of my hydraulics and behold the room with the full length mirror (Sullivan's delight). Stoop's getting ready to give the girl a treat. He's just putting the final touches on his coiffure. Then, of course, Boyum is sleep
Jacksoning on the super-ventilated sleeping porch. (So that's where all the extra blankets go)
Holy Smokes! some big mutt just smashed me down into the floor boards. What's the rush? Gosh! Burrington's cheese crackers are being raided. Stoop (the hero) found them. Good going Stoop. Ten hungry inmates present in onehalf minute.
Ah! what sudden ecstacy is this. The marriage room. Three in two years. Guess I'll spend the night and see if it works.
detoured through the closet wall and to behold Daisy Mae ( Evelyn's hand child ) Aren't those embroidered eyes pretty.
plowed through the drain and came up in the master bathroom just in time to see Hanson thrown in the tub again.
Boy! am tired and does Jackson's satin sofa look good. snooze awhile and awake when the phone rings. Another mystery call for Schwichtenberg. Five guys listening in on the phone upstairs. No fair.
Whish ! that banister sure slides nice. Oh ! Oh! the love seats being used again. Donitza just dropped by. Gee! they didn't Know was watching, but won't tell a soul.
I peeked through the keyhole of the lower sleeping porch to observe the art of removing Siirila from bed without removing him from the arms of Morpheus.
Hunger overtook me, so I, with several others raided Mrs. Jackson's cracker supply. She'll never miss a dozen crackers, will she?
it was an exceedingly pleasant evening, and so home to publish my adventures in the Jeep News.
