Wenonah Yearbook - 1948

THE WENONAH 1948

Winona State Teachers College

Winona, Minnesota

Dr.Glendon E. Galligan

Dedication

To help his students to become good teachers is the primary purpose of a faculty member in a teacher training institution. A teacher having such an ideal is Dr. Glendon E. Gal ligan, to whom we dedicate this thirty-seventh edition of the "Wenonah." We know him as a teacher who gave us practical information as well as a technical background; as a coach and athletic director who helped us to realize the principles of good sportsmanship in which he so firmly believed; and as an individual and friend who always had a word of greeting and encouragement for everyone.

As a member ofthe Administrative Council, Dr. Galligan has evidenced his administrative ability. As Director of Health and Physical Education, he has done much to advance intercollegiate and intra-mural athletics, not only in the game, but also in its spirit. Through his work on the Personnel Committee and on the Public Relations Committee, he has fostered good teacher-student-public relationships.

Dr. Galligan, by his vital manner of teaching and by his qualities as an individual, has endeared himself to us as a person who believes firmly in what he teaches and yet is always willing to listen to student views; who has high professional ideals, a wealth of technical knowledge, and the ability to lead others to discover the richness he has found in life.

It Is in appreciation of his sound judgment, his loyalty to the advancement of the college, and his sincere interest in the welfare of students that we dedicate the 1948 "Wenonah'' to Dr. Glendon E. Galligan.

Forward

The college freshman looking forward from high school thinks of the four-year collegeperiod as a long time. The senior looking backward over four years of college is amazed to think that the time passed so quickly. The freshman thinks he has plenty of time to take courses he would like, to engage in a wide choice of activities. The senior thinks of courses he missed, of opportunities passed over, of books he did not read, or of partieipation sacrificed because there did not seem to be time.

If this is true of the microcosm called college life, it is equally true of active adult life in a community. Here similar choices of opportunity for study, professional improvement, community participation and leadership are to be found as they are in college. The difference is that they are not so ready at hand, must be sought out through one's interest and carried by one's drive in the face of obstacles or indifference. But the need for judicious choice is there in adult life as it is in college.

The charge is often made that a college by providing a multiple choice of activities, courses, and social opportunities succeeds mainly in distracting the student mind from the principal business of getting an education. The answer of the college is that the student should be given a chance to decide for himself how to divide his time between study, work, and extra-curricular activities offered. That the system is not without merit is shown by the record of graduates. Those who exhibit leadership qualities in college are to be found among the active, resourceful, and effective leaders in professional and community affairs in later years.

This "Wenonah" edition preserves conveniently the record of the passing year in college life. While it serves as a historical record of good times and good friends, it is also a prophecy of future achievement by those who have shown leadership potentialities during the year now ending.

We are indebted to the "Wenonah" stafffor a carefully compiled and effectively arranged publication.

Neis Minne

Administration

"'It is the supreme art of the teacher to awaken joy in creative expression and in knowledge." These words, written by Albert Einstein, are a statement of a purpose and an ideal of every teacher. But our instructors have done much more than that. They have, by their friendly leadership, vast energy, and vital ambition, made us aware of the need of education in a democracy and have challenged every student to prepare himself so that he can fulfill his place in the postwar world.

Dr. Neis Minné, president.

^Xady Precious Stream

A Chinese comedy romance, ''Lady Precious Stream," by S. I. Hsiung, was presented by the Wenonah Players as their spring production.

Staging was in Chinese style with the audience imagining that the bare stage was a garden, a pavilion, or a cave; that Hsieh rode his horse on the stage; and that the property men were invisible. According to Chinese presentation, the property men were on stage throughout the play to catch Wang when he fainted, to place cushions for those about to kneel, and to provide chairs and properties at the right moment.

Miss Dorothy B. Magnus directed the play. Dorothy Hanson was student director and Charles Keith, head technician. Rosalie Critchfield appeared as Lady Precious Stream and Keith Harstad as her husband, Hsieh Ping Kuei.

FOOTBALL SQUAD:

First

Football

The football team gained a share of the conference title with Bemidji T.C. as its record was three wins and one loss in conference play. The team did not have a high scoring offense, but made up for it with a stellar defensive record.

Dick Traxier, who was elected honorary captain of the team, and Bill Corchran, who was chosen outstanding player by his teammates, were also voted positions on the all-conference team.

Lettermen who graduate this year are Dick Traxier and Laurel Wager. They will be missed next year by Coach Brodhagen and Assistant Coach McCown.

Basketball

Although the percentage column of vietories and defeats leaned heavily toward the latter, the basketball team displayed a lot of courage and fighting spirit before subduing. The team was handicapped in every encounter by lack of height. Prospects for next year are somewhat brighter as Coach McCown will have a majority of lettermen back as a nucleus around which to build next year's aggregation.

Sonny Dahl, three-year basketball letterman, was chosen for the all-conference second team.

On Its Yearbook And We Want to Advertise Not a Material Product But AMERICANISM

The WINONA STATE TEACHERS COLLEGE instructs our youth, and there is no better time than now, no better place than this annual, to impress upon parents and others who read this book that we AMERICANS must be on the alert to stamp out COMMUNISM. America must have ONE SYSTEM, not two.

AMERICANISM MUST GAIN STRENGTH OR COMMUNISM WILL OVERTHROW IT

ONLY ONE CAN SURVIVE!

The people of AMERICA must decide whether the dictates of the Kremlin are more important than constitutional liberty and freedom and whether the voice of ONE MAN is invincible.

Does Communism give the people more LIBERTY AND FREEDOM than we have under our Constitution and Bill of Rights, or does it abolish such things?

Does Communism give man the right to ACHIEVE HIS OWN SECURITY, or does it take that right away?

Does Communism give FREEDOM OF RELIGION or does it abolish churches?

Does Communism give the right to TRIAL BY JURY, or does it abolish justice?

Will Communism give us the RIGHT TO LABOR at what we choose, the RIGHT TO SAVE OUR MONEY AND GO INTO BUSINESS, the RIGHT TO OWN A HOME, the RIGHT TO WORSHIP AS WE PLEASE, the RIGHT TO HAVE FREEDOM OF SPEECH, the RIGHT TO VOTE AS WE PLEASE?

WE WANT OUR AMERICAN SYSTEM
