DEDICATION

this year of the Territorial Centennial to the School Children of Minnesota

On these children rest the responsibilities of tomorrow's world. From these children we, as teachers, see our responsibilities. Our Minnesota public schools are a melting pot as traditionally American as America itself. Children of all races, nationality backgrounds, and creeds meet on this common ground. As teachers in these schools we have the ideal surroundings to utilize our own experiences on our educational stairway. We desire to realize our responsibilities of educating these children to better goals, greater tolerance, and more realistic understandings as they stand on the threshold of tomorrow.

Dr. Minné

One of the marks of o successful administrator is his ability to inspire cooperation among his fellow workers. Judging by this criterion, our president, Dr. Neis Minne, is exceptionally successful, for under his administration the college has raised its prestige through joint effort of students and faculty.

Known as the "Thundering 400" when as freshmen they entered the college, the junior class has dwindled to a total of ninety-six members this year. An active class throughout its three years, they sponsored this year, under the presidency of Robert Clayton, an all-college party in September. Assisting Mr. Clayton as vice president was Robert Clausen and Janice Sabotta as treasurer. Advisor to the group was Mr. Melvin Wedul.

First row: M. Haugen, S. Lanning, B. Kopp, R. Critchfield, J. Sabotta, E. Sanden, C. Jackson. Second row: R. Petty, B. Clayton, J. Edwards, W. Ronnenberg, M. Bublitz, M. Brustuen, E. Lampland, J.

The most outstanding attribute of the sophomore class is its array of feminine pulchritude. At homecoming, three of its members were in regal positions, as queen—Mary Leonard— and as attendants—Gladys Asleson and Fern Thiele. Iris Jacobsen was the Snow Queen, representing W.S.T.C. in the Winona Winter Carnival. The sophomores sponsored an all-college party—a movie—on January 7. Officers were Arthur O'Neil, president; Louise Harbo, vice president; and Colene Elton, secretary-treasurer. Mr. Mathew Barry was adviser.

The Freshman class proved to be one of the most active groups at T.C. this year. Beginning in October, the frosh handled the Homecoming decorations for both the game and the dance. On their own, the freshmen sponsored the Sadie Hawkins dance on November 19, with Roger Challberg as master of ceremonies. Prizes were awarded for the best costurnes and beards. The Debate teams were revived by the freshmen and were composed largely of first year students. Freshmen also sponsored the May festival for seniors in area high schools. On joint committees were Richard Kubier, social; Janet Hyde, finance; Janis Peterson, public relations; and Ivan Nienow, Assembly and public functions. Mr. James Becker was adviser.

St’udent' association officers—pres., J. Swenson; treas., J. LaChappelle; sec., E. Nienow; and vice-pres., J. Fennie.

Representative Council

The Representative Council, student governing body, is the agent through which the Student Association, composed of all T.C. students, seeks attention to pertinent issues of student welfare at the college. The Student Association elects a president each year, who also serves as Representative Council prexy. James Swenson led the students this year, with the other officers: vice-president, Joe Fennie; secretary, Elaine Nienow; and treasurer, James LaChapelle. Six representatives from each class and two faculty members—Miss Marguerite Steffenson and Mr. L. A. Arnold—joined the association officers to make a total of thirty participating in the Representative Council. Because of its limited powers, the Council is largely a discussion group which recommends changes to the administration.

First row: J. Hyde, G. Asleson, L. Kirkland, J. Wintervold, J. Peterson, R. Critchfield. Second row: Miss Steffenson, D. Malcolm, R. Clayton, D. Christenson, B. Clausen, J. Radtke, Mr. Arnold.

Third row: M. Weber, D. Kubier.

Fourth row: J. Fennie, J. La Chappelle, M. Kirkland, B. McCormick, J. Swenson, A. O'Neil, I. Nienow.

Each year the faculty selects students from the senior and graduating sophomore classes to be awarded the Purple Key. Shortly before graduation, announcement is made of membership in this group. Scholarship, character, and interest in college activities are considered. Although the holders of the Purple Key elect no officers and have no meetings, both two year and four year students strive to attain membership in this group. It is the highest honor of the college.

Who’s Who

Members of Who's Who were chosen this past fall from the senior class by vote of the entire student body except freshmen.

Kappa Pi

Students desiring membership in the Alpha Upsilon chapter of Kappa Pi, national art fraternity, were asked this year to submit two drawings to be judged by the organization. New members were initiated in May. Sketching parties at which students modeled composed some of the year's meetings. Members painted nativity scenes on the ground floor windows for the Christmas season, under the direction of Don Redlich, and held a pre-Christmas bazaar at which they sold a variety of hand made articles. In October, 'art students saw the famous “Berlin salt mine" paintings from Europe at the Minneapolis Institute of Arts. The spring prom, held May 28, was sponsored by the club. Officers were Bob Anderson, president; Adeline Christensen, vice president; Anah Goss, secretary; and Don Redlich, treasurer. Miss Floretta Murray was counsellor.

The Wenonah

Taunts and threats of "Hand in your glossies," "Pay your subscription," and "Get in your assignments," are the obvious evidences of the work of the Wenonah Board. But behind the gruffness and urgency of its production are hours of writers' cramps,

burns, distasteful pasting, and many headaches. The Wenonah goes to press as a record of school occasions and familiar faces seen in the halls and on the campus.

Young Democrats

The Voung Democrats club, organized in '48 to campaign for the national and state elections, was composed of thirty-five T.C. students, directed by chairman Phir Pellowski. Before the election, members distributed campaign literature in Winona and conducted a local telephone campaign with the cooperation of Winona citizens. Pellowski was also county chairman of the senior party, and he rode the visiting Truman train from Winona to Sparta. Eight delegates represented the college group at the D.F.L. state convention at Hastings. Three—Pellowski, Art Ensberg, and John Riesch—were placed on permanent pre-convention committees. Campus members worked for a closer organization with the city Democratic group in order to enhance political education, thereby contributing to better government. Gloria Gynild was chairwoman; Violet Jensen, secretary; and John Riesch, treasurer. Mr. Luther McCown advised.

Young Republicans

Work!talk! argue! convince! Work some more! During the frantic, hectic months preceding the 1948 presidential election, that is just what the members of the Young RepubMean League did. The value of their efforts was shown in the mock election held on the campus the day of the national polling. W.S.T.C. went out for Dewey. The national defeat of the Republicans, however, did not mean the death of the local group. Instead, they are as energetic as ever, holding meetings to discuss current political situations. At the head of the group were David Malcolm, chairman; Willard Erickson, vice chairman; Betty Stuck, secretary; and Robert Clausen, treasurer. As long as the Republican party exists, this group pledges its loyalty and support.

Perhaps the oldest organization of the campus that is still active is the Mendelssohn Club, the women's choral group. This year the club boasted a membership of twentyfive. Members are selected each fall on the basis of tryouts before the present members; Mr. Walter Grimm, the director; and Miss Agnes Bard, accompanist. A good singing voice, character, personality and scholarship are essentials considered for selection. Practices are held each Tuesday and Thursday at 4:05 in the music tower. Christmas and 'tween season concerts were given both during chapel and at meetings of local civic organizations. Highlight of the season was a spring concert in Somsen auditorium at which the group displayed the climax of a year's work.

The Apollo Club is the men's voice organization on the campus. Meeting twice weekly under the direction of Miss Agnes Bard, the club goes through its repertoire and adds new songs to its list. Its wide variety of selections ranges from Fred Waring's arrangement of "Loch Lomond" to sacred music and back to Rodgers and Hammerstein. The club has a feeling of mutual taste in music that comes from working together. It has also an air of informality that encourages people like Mr. Walter Grimm to walk in at any time to lend a hand. The officers of the club this year were Jay Robinson, president; Gerald Radtke, vice president; and Ray Colwell, secretary-treasurer.

Under the direction of Mr. Walter Grimm, and accompanied by Miss Agnes Bard, the group made several public appearances during the year. Chief among them was the presentation of the Christmas cantata, "The Shepherds of Bethlehem," December 13, in Somsen Auditorium before the college audience. Soloists were Mary Dean, Elaine Sanden, and Leon Peters. The cantata was also presented before the Rotary Club of Winona and at Altura, Minnesota, as a part of the Christmas program there.

Subjects of musical interest were discussed and the club heard solo and ensemble performances by members and talks on music. The club stimulated interest in local recitals and the concerts which are sent by the Community Concert Association.

Football

The Warriors got off to a fast start by tipping St. Mary's to win the 1948 city championship. However, the rest of the season proved fruitless as far as victories were concerned, due to a plague of injuries. At one stage of the campaign. Coach Brodhagen faced the task of replacing seven first stringers who were on the injured list. Although the Warriors ran into much stronger competition this season because of the great improvement shown by the other conference teams, they put up a good scrap in every game, giving the fans an exciting autumn.

Those who will be greatly missed by the Warriors next year are "Tank" Clausen, "Soup" Winblad, Mel Schaefer, Bill Corchran, Wayne Nash, and Joe Yantes.

Basketball

The Warriors made strides in their comeback on the court, bettering their 1947-48 record by capturing seven games. The team started off with a bang by winning six of their first eight games. Loss of three regulars at this point was a blow from which the team did not recover.

Those winding up their cage careers this year were "Soup" Winblad, Virgil Clausen, and Sonny Dahl.

George Vondrashek, Warrior captain, led the team in scoring with 334 points and was also chosen as center on the all-conference second team.

Vondrashek rebounds against St. Mary's with the aid of DuBois and Warweg.

Intramural Board

The intramural board is concerned with providing athletic activity for as large a number of persons as possible. The board arranges, runs off, and regulates tournaments in various sports and plans the teams competing so that there will not be too great a variance of ability between groups. Members were Pat McLean, Joe Yantes, Bill Ferguson, Lyle Roschen, and Moe Weber.

Engaged in the scramble for the intramural basketball championship were sixteen teams and over 130 basketeers. The Lakers were crowned champs by nipping the AllAmericans 27-26 in the playoff finals. Members of Captain Bob Lawstuen's Lakers were Charles Johnson, Charles Erwin, Rudy Ellis, Lyle Mavland, Vic Stensrud, and John Wiebusch.

Men’s P. E. Club

Keeping its members up to date on new developments and techniques in physical education is a major purpose of the Men's P.E. Club. An experiment carried on by the club for the past two years with the McCloy Achievement Tests in choosing intramural basketball teams proved highly successful. Members of theclub are majors and minors in the men's physical education department. The officers were Howard McLean, president; Darold King, vice-president; and Donald Bolkcom, secretary-treasurer. Advisers were Mr. L. A. MeCown and Mr, E. N. Brodhagen.

Women’s P. E Club

All majors and minors in women's physical education are members of the Women's Physical Education Club. As this is a professional club, the monthly meetings are planned to be educational. Speakers bring new views on this field of education. Frequent work meetings have as their projects the making of lanyards, soccer boards, and other useful phy. ed. articles. A new contribution to the school was made by the Women's Physical Education club, in the form of a loan fund for phy. ed. majors and minors. For two years, these girls have been in charge of concessions at all home athletic games. Clyda Dressen was president; Janice Sabotta, vice president; and Kathryn Swanson, secretary-treasurer. Miss Elta Kern and Dr. Jean Talbot were advisers.

Twice each weekall girls interested in sports get together for games soccer, speedball, field hockey, basketball, volleyball, and softball—through the Women's Athletic Association. Last fall the W.A.A. sponsored a play day which students of the College of St. Teresa attended. That college, in turn, had a splash party for T.C. girls.

With "Kon-Ker Kato" as the slogan for T.C.'s twenty-sixth homecoming, students, faculty and alumni opened festivities on October 15 with a pepfest, at which Queen Mary Leonard was presented with her court—Gladys Asleson, Fern Thiele, Bonnie Utley, and Bernice Wadekamper. A snake dance to a giant bonfire at the practice field was led by the cheerleaders. The L.S.A. and Kappa Pi breakfasts and Wenonah Players and "W" club luncheons made it possible for alumni and present students to meet again. Following the game—which Winona lost to Mankato 7-0— open house prevailed at the dorms and lodges. At the Shepard Hall tea, Mrs. Harriet Taisey, oldest living graduate of the college, was present. A semi-formal dance, with music by Henry Burton, concluded the 1948 Homecoming activities.

Congratulations to the Graduating Class and may they at all times continue to be and TEACH TRUE AMERICANISM.

We are in TWO kinds of business.

1st. We are in the business of Selling AMERICANISM, but not alone Americanism but Freedom. One can be an American but must believe in freedom of speech, religious liberty, in our public school system and the right to vote as we please.

TOO MANY

of those who claim to be Americans are going to the left and are actually supporting Communism.

We live in the best country in the world and have the best of everything that money can buy. Our workers are being well paid and can do with their money what they please.

UNDER COMMUNISM

The people are told what to say and write, where to work (and not a 40 hour week) but from dawn to dark and usually in the making of war materials to destroy if possible those countries that believe in democracy.

2nd. We are also in the business of producing washed sand and gravel either to be loaded on trucks or on railroad cars.
