During this year at Winona State College many doors have been opened for us. The faculty provided doors that led to added knowledge and enlightenment. Class membership opened the door to the development of cooperation and group spirit. As we entered the doors opened. Through participation in campus organizations we gained enthusiasm for leadership, religious satisfactions, and the ability to accept definite obligations. Sports activities led to the opening of doors in the development of sportsmanship, personal growth, and friendship. Social adjustment, character development, and the art of getting along with others came as we entered the doors to student life. As these doors opened for us we gained in experience and knowledge.
Winona Winona, MinnesotaWinona State College is the new name of our college which was brought about by legislative action this past year. Another highlight of the administrative program was the acceptance of the graduate school by theNorth Central Assoelation of Colleges and Secondary Schools. Expansion of the present facilities and evolving of the curriculum to meet the demands and needs of future teachers is the aim of the administration. A complete building program which eventually will benefit every college department and dormitory resident was begun, with plans for even further expansion in the future. Dr. Neis Minne, college president, heads the administrative council.
The registrar keeps all of the students' personal records on file and up to date. This year a new system, the AAcBee Company Key Sort, was purchased. The Key Sort eliminâtes much time and work in sorting and alphabetizing student class cards at the end of the quarter. With the Key Sort each student has a personal history card which contains information such as student class number, course number, session, year, and ma¡or and minor field.
The Dean of Men and the Dean of Women are of special service to the students of the College. They work with students on housing, finance, personal, and social adjustments.
The graduate program at our college was established to provide opportunities for elementary and secondary teachers and elementary principals to further their training that they might be better qualified to contribute individually to the development of a sound state educational program. The requirements in the professional area are designed to increase professional practice, and to keep candidates abreast of current educational theory and practice; the requirements in the field of concentration and the elective areas are intended to deepen and widen the teacher's command of the field.
} Students completing their courses and alumni who need help in their progress to more responsible positions are served by the office of the Director of Training. His effectively organized placement service is closely related to the counseling plan.
Athletic Director: L. McCown. Graduate Coordinator: F. Van Alstine. Upper Division Coordinator: J. Talbot.The Division of Science and Mathematics aims to provide for the needs of students in teacher preparation, general education, and preprofessional areas. In each of these, science is regarded both as an organized body of knowledge and as a method of investigation developed through class and laboratory experiences. Attitudes of open-mindedness and scientific couriosity are encouraged. The relation of science to current affairs; the dependence of modern industry upon science; the research features of business, medicine and government; and the vocational opportunities in the field are included in the program.
The Department of Fine and Applied Arts gives college students an opportunity for individual and group expression in music, industrial arts, and art. As students discover the nature of selfexpression, they learn to guide the activities of others toward vocational skill and the useful employment of leisure time.
The Division of Social Studies, comprising history, political science, sociology, economics, and business offers the prospective teacher and the general student opportunity to study the history of mankind with special attention to the development of ourown nation, together with the related duties and responsibilities of the citizen in a democratic society. It examines the origin, organization, basic principles and methods of procedure in American government federal, state, and local. It analyzes the principles of production, distribution, consumption, exchange, and public and private finance. It examines the nature and structure of society and of group and social problems. It affords opportunity to analyze business problems and to prepare for specialized and technical participation in business.
Health and Physical Education contribute to the education of each student. The division provides enjoyment through a variety of experiences, at the same time working to develop physical, emotional, and social efficiency necessary to the individual. In addition to preparation for teaching other skills and health maintenance, the student learns to live in cooperation with others; sharing successes and failures with them; appreciating their abilities as equally as his own; and growing in their companionship.
Language is the tool with which men think, communicate ideas, learn, and share their emotions. The Department of Language and Literature trains students to use language effectively in writing and in speaking, and for everyday and artistic communication.
The Department of Education and Psychology introduces theory as it applies to teaching situations. The aim of the department is to develop a sound philosophy based upon both human nature and thedesired ends of American education. The history of education, the place of the school in the democratic society, the problems confronting the teacher, and scientific solutions to those problems are interrelated in the college students' curriculum.
Maxwell Library offers its resources to students and is organized to meet their specific needs. The special children's library is operated for Phelps school children and also serves as an observation room for students training for teaching.
Language and Speech: M. Davis, E. Jesson, D. Magnus. Education and Psychology: L. Earner, E. Ragar, A. Aarestad, M. Wedul, M. Bartsch, J. Fuller.The college seeks to secure for each student systematic, regular, and reasonable habits of work and recreation that will contribute to healthful living. The Health Service staff is composed of part-time physicians and the college nurse.
The bookstore operates to serve the needs of the students. They not only purchase used books and sell necessary class texts, but they also sell other class supplies, college greeting cards, jackets, stationery, and phonograph records.
The college offices are always ready to be of assistance to any student. Regular mail deliveries at the P.O. boxes, assistance in operating office machines, and keeping an accurate class card record are only a few of their services.
School Nurses; N. Valentine, M. Miller.The Phelps Laboratory School consists of a kindergarten for five-year olds, a primary department v/ith grades one through three, an intermediate department with grades four through six, and junior high school.
Phelps School is a laboratory in which students may do directed teaching. It is also used for observation and a limited amount of experimental work. A practical, enriched, progressive program of educational activities is carried on. The school stresses the development of good habits, attitudes, standards of teaching and school housekeeping on the part of the students.
With the end of their college careers at Winona State close at hand, the seniors found themselves* pressed with new and assorted responsibilities: class pictures, homecoming variety show, practice teaching, job interviews, senior banquet, commencement announcements, and selecting a graduation speaker. Now with a balance of pride and humility, the seniors face the future.

Climaxing an active year for the juniors was the very successful Winter Formal, Mardi Gras, featuring Jules Herman's orchestra. Having passed the half-way mark in their college days, the juniors found themselves settled in their major and minor fields, working toward their future goals.
With memories of their initiation still fresh in their minds, the sophomores set out to orient the incoming freshmen to the ways of campus life. The new "capping ceremony" proved entertaining and successful, as frosh donned their beanies. A serene, misty atmosphere pervaded as students enjoyed the sophomores' Christmas dance.
"Enthusiastic" would best describe the freshmen who arrived early in September to begin their college careers. The usual rebellious attitude showed through during initiation, but the espritde-corps of the class was put to good use later when they sponsored the Sock Hop. Fortunately, many frosh soon realized that there is more to college life than the gay, superficial social whirl and that there are serious goals to strive for.
To serve all of the students both as a group and as Individuals is one way of defining the duty of student government.
The 1956-57 Representative Council, in attempting to do this, worked on two major projects revising the student association constitution and changing the student government representative body to a commission.
Although these changes did not have any noticeable immediate effect, it is hoped by student commission members that the changes will have the long range effects of strengthening the student government and making it more efficient.
Another achievement of the Representative Council was the establishment of a Religious Emphasis Week. During March, Winona State's first RE Week was held, and it proved moderately successful.
Other than the above - mentioned items, the student government did the usual things took charge of Homecoming, freshman orientation, and acted in general as a sounding board for student opinion.
Officers for the year were: Robert Brown, president; Ernest Buhler, vice-president; Dorothy Holt, secretary; and Charles Frisby, treasurer. Dr. R. L. Lokensgard and Mr. E. Jacobsen were faculty advisers.
Given the task of acquainting the incoming freshmen with college life,, the orientation team began preliminary planning in the spring of the previous year in order to provide an adequate program for the beginning of Fall quarter. Informal dances and social hours were held, with a tour of Whitewater State Park, a picnic, and recreation as an added attraction. In addition to this, the team assisted with freshmen registration, assemblies, and counseling tests. College deans acted as advisers to the team.
The selection of fourteen seniors to be listed in the 1956-57 edition of Who's Who Among American Colleges and Universities has been confirmed. Nominated first by a representative council committee, the candidates were then considered by the administrative council before their names were submitted to the student body for the final decision. The fourteen names resuiting were sent to the editor of the national publication for ratification. The candidates were judged on the basis of distinguished achievement in scholarship, service, leadership, attitude and character.
Gamma Tau chapter of Kappa Delta Pi, the national honor society in education, encourages high professional, intellectual, and personal standards. The organization is designed to recognize outstanding personal contributions to the educational field. The year's main project was the establishment of a scholarship fund. Officers this year were: president, Mary Tripp; vice-president, LaVonne Tews; secretary, Eleanor Seim; treasurer, Allan Fiedler; historian-recorder, Carol Mahike. The counselor is Miss Murray.
Each year Kappa Delta Pi sponsors awards to ten graduating students who have been selected as outstanding representatives of Winona State College. Selection is based upon high scholarship, personal, social, ethical, and other professional qualities. Those selected may be enrolled in either the B.S. or B.A. programs on campus. Members elected to the organization may wear the official pin.
Purple Key is an honorary group which has no officers and holds no meetings, but whose membership remains a goal to industrious students.

Miller.The YWCA adopted an advisory board of representatives from the city YWCA and the ministerial association which the college branch could consult. The Y members sponsored the Big-Little Sister program to acquaint freshman girls with college life. Other activities included discussion groups, varied programs on the regional Y conference and fund raising for the World University Service. Officers for YWCA were president, Helen White; vice president, Dorothy Holt; secretary, Barbara Peterson; and treasurer, Janice Jacobsen. Dr. Boddy and Miss Roney are the advisers.
Activity was a keynote of the Etta Hudson Howell Chapter of the Future Teachers of America throughout the 1956-57 school year. Their Homecoming activities included the sponsorship of the winning queen candidate, Barbara Renslo, and the entering of a float in the parade. Several members attendedthe M.E.A. Convention in October. The organization also sponsored the annual Christmas Seal Drive. At the State F.T.A. Convention in April, Ernie Buhler was elected state president for 1957-58. Another successful venture of the group was the annual F.T.A. Carnival, April 5th. Burton Ferrier was carnival chairman, with Nancy Tubb directing the stage show, "Ports Afar",
in Somsen Auditorium, during which the audience traveled "around the world" with Gail Darrah, Duayne Malewicki and the rest of the cast. Other carnival fun included booths in Phelps Gym featuring a variety of activities from a basketball throw to a bingo game. Programs at the meetings included an interesting talk by Bill Schimmel, 1956 graduate of State, and a mock interview of Pat Diethert, senior, by Mr. Milton Boock, principal of Lake City High School. Officers for the year were: Ernie Buhler, president; Burton Perrier, vice-president; Barbara Penslo, secretary-treasurer; and Dixie Meinzer, reporter. Advisers were Miss Amanda Aarestad and Dr. Melvin Wedul.
Young Republicans began the election year on an enthusiastic note by assisting the local GOP Headquarters with a house-to-house "Get out the vote" campaign, in which they checked to see how many citizens were registered to vote. They scored two successes during Homecoming with their sponsorship of Homecoming Princess, Jackie Fuller, and also the Class A second place float prize with their large paper mache elephant. Other activities included sending delegates to the State YGOP Convention, inviting prominent speakers to their meetings, and cooperating with St. Mary's on a float for campaigning in the area.
Officers were: Darrell Bearson, president; Kathryn Hammergren, vice president; Annette Pretzer, secretary; Richard Fenwick, treasurer. Advisers were Miss Magnus and Mr. Jacobsen.
The Young Democrat's Club, which was reorganized this past year, took an active part in the presidential campaign this fall. Besides discussing pertinent campaign issues, they helped set up the local Stevenson headquarters and carried on the "Dollars for Democrats" campaign in Winona. The primary purpose of theclub is to encourage an active interest and participation in governmental affairs local, national, and international. Daniel Bonow is chairman; Claude Kremer, vice chairman; Sue Hennessy, secretary; and Dr. Theodore Sudia is adviser.
The Business Club which is composed of business majors and minors plans activities for the year, such as field trips and speakers which come from the different business establishments in the area. Different phases of business, selling, and personal selling are discussed at the meeting. Each year the club visits a well-known business, and this year the club toured the Minnesota Mining in St. Paul and the Federal Reserve Bank in Minneapolis. The Business Club sponsored the pre-prom dance and featured Orchesis during intermission. Officers were: Bill Kuehl, president; Burl Leo, vice president; and Kathryn Bjoraker, secretary. Advisers are Dr. W. Marley, Mrs. R. Hopf, and Dr. T. Whitesel.
With Gordon Schleder, alias Rex Scientas I, leading the way, the Science Club of the college, with its institution of "The Days of Chivalry," paved the way for another successful year of activities.
Aside from the newly installed winter party, which was reigned over by Barbara Peterson, Winona State's Fair Lady, the Science Club pursued its general purpose of furthering interest in science by having guest speakers at their meetings, previewing slides, attending various Science Fairs around the state, and enlarging on their own Science Fair by making it a full day of study and interest in exhibits.
Once again the Science Club attended the annual Science Day at Central High School in Rochester, May 4, to close out their season of activities.
The Industrial Arts Club cooperated with Kappa Pi in making the queen's float for the Homecoming parade. The members have attended a welding demonstration at the Winona high school, and have engaged speakers. Mr. Belsaas, superintendent at St. Charles, spoke to the group on desired characteristics and abilities of industrial arts instructors; and Bill Drugan showed pictures taken in Greenland. Officers of the organization were: Warren Maceman, president; Edgar Norman, vicepresident; Elmer Hannon, secretary - treasurer; Gene Peterson, public relations, and Dr. Jackson, Dr. Capron, and Mr. Fugisby, advisers.
Kappa Pi art s t u d e n t s decorated the Homecoming queen's float for the Homecoming parade and planned to make this an annual project.

The 1956 football season showed a marked improvement over last season. The Warriors came through with a very respectable 5 won, and 3 lost record. After winning the first five ballgames played, they then dropped the last three of the season. Wins were posted over Stout, Mankato, Bemidji, Moorhead, and Northland, good for the conference championship. St. Cloud was the only conference team to defeat Winona. Although the Warriors lost to St. Cloud in the final conference game of the season, they still won the Conference championship. St. Cloud, which had beaten Moorhead, 40-0, was forced to forfeit that game to Moorhead, because of the
use of an ineligible player. This forfeit, coupled with a tie game with Mankato, left St. Cloud with two wins, one loss, and one tie. The Warriors finished with three wins, and one loss, which gave them the undisputed conference championship. So after a lapse of many years, the championship trophy will once again stand in Memorial Hall. Non-conference defeats were suffered at the hands of River Falls and Whitewater.
The outlook for 1957 is very bright, as the Warriors will lose only three seniors via graduation. Those who will not be back for another season are Co-Captain Bill Ziebell, Ron Rubado, and Ray Hoveland.
Center, and Co-Captain, Dave Mertes, a ¡unior, again was named to the All-Conference first team. This markedthe second straight season Mertes has been named to the All-Conference first team, and the third straight season he has been named to the All-Conference team. In addition to being All-Conference, Mertes also was named Little All-American, an honor he richly deserved. Special recognition should be given to Mertes for his fine play, his outstanding leadership, and his overall ability to give all he had at all times. A job well done, Dave! Winona dominated the AllConference second team by placing five men on the squad. Don Segermark, a junior, and Jim Jacobs, a sophomore, were named to the backfield. Jerry Ebert, a sophomore, John May, and LaVerne Pieper, juniors, were selected to the line.

In the opening game of the season the Warriors traveled to Menominee, Wisconsin, to take on Stout's Blue Devils. Led by Quarterback Jerry Seeman, the Peds fought back from an early 6 to 0 deficit, to bring out a 26 to 13 win. Seeman flashed mid-season form as he passed for two touchdowns and scored one himself. Other touchdowns were registered by Svenningson, Miller and Brown.
Winona 1 Mankato 0 (Forfeit)
In the first conference game of the year, Mankato actually beat the Warriors 26 to 6. In doing so, however, Mankato used an ineligible player, which later resulted in a forfeit to Winona. Statistic-wise the Warriors led in all departments except the final score.
Winona 13 Bemidji 7
The third game of the season saw the Warriors make their annual northern trip, this year to Bemidji, to take on a very fine Beaver squad. After moving to an early 13 to 0 lead in the first half, the Warriors put up a very fine defense in the second half and hung on for a 13 to 7 vietory. Winona touchdowns were scored by Jerry Ebert, on a long pass from Seeman, and by AI Svenningson, who recovered a fumble in the end zone. Don Segermark provided most of the offensive punch, while LaVerne Pieper led the Peds on defense.
Winona20 Moorhead 0
Homecoming! And what a homecoming it turned out to be. Led by the hard driving Don Segermark, the Warriors ran to a convincing 20 to 0 victory. Segermark was the big man in the Warrior offense as he scored all three touchdowns. The Warriors' defensive game was again outstanding as Moorhead never seriously threatened.
A. Svenningson almost in the clear. W. Asing and half the Whitewater team. J. Ebert almost tripped up.In what was supposed to be a "breather" on the schedule, the Warriors had to go all out to edge a stubborn Northland eleven 13 to 7. End Jerry Ebert scored both of Winona's touchdowns early in the game on passes from Wayne Asing and Jerry Seeman.
A very fine Winona team battled the St. Cloud Huskies to the final gun before dropping a tough 14 to 6 game. For three quarters of the game if looked as if the Warriors were "in", as an early touchdown scored by Don Segermark looked like it might hold up. However in the fourth quarter the Huskies took advantage of a short punt, and finally pushed across a touchdown. The try for the extra point was good and St. Cloud led 7 to 6. St. Cloud's consolation touchdown was scored late in the game.
River Falls State College handed a very demoralized Warrior "11" their second defeat of the season 26 to 12. On this particular day. River Falls was good, and Winona was bad. This, coupled with some costly errors, enabled the Falcons to breeze to the victory. Winona touchdowns were scored late in the game by Jerry Ebert and AI Myers.
On the final day of the season, before a Parents' Day crowd, Winona dropped a heart-breaking 9-6 game to Whitewater College. First half play was dominated by the Warriors with the lone score coming on a 30 yard touchdown run by Wayne Asing. In the second half Whitewater took to the air and early in the fourth period scored the tying touchdown. In the waning minutes of the game Whitewater marched to the Warrior 10 yard line, where they kicked the winning field goal.
Admiring championship trophy: Coach R. Owen, Coach AA. AAolinari, D. Segermark, L. Pieper, J. AAay, J. Jacobs. Through the middle.The 1956-57 basketball season at Winona State was, as far as the won-lost record indicates, a dismal one. The Peds, coached by Russ Owen, compiled a total of only four wins, against eighteen losses. However, the Warriors played the toughest schedule in the schools' history. Appearing on the non-conference schedule were Western Illinois, Lincoln University, SouthDakota State, South Dakota University, Loras College, La Crosse State, Stevens Point, and Iowa State Teachers College. The ten freshmen on the squad
gained a great deal of valuable experience throughout the season.
Letterwinners on the squad included senior Captain-elect Craig Currier, who was also given honorable mention on the All-Conference team. In addition to Currier, letterwinners were AI Svenningson, who was a unanimous All-Conference selection, and leading scorer in the conference, and Fred Weeman, both juniors; Monte Sprute and Bill Morse, sophomores; Don Klagge, Jon Kaiser, Larry Engle, Don Behrens, and Herb Espinda, freshmen.

AI Svenningson passing off to Lee Paul.The Warriors opened the season by dropping a 73 to 50 decision to South Dakota State, at Brookings, South Dakota. The Warriors returned to open their home season against Western lilinois, one of the finest basketball teams to appear in this area during the entire season. Fighting a spirited battle the Warriors again tasted defeat 84 to 50. Next in line was Stout, and Winona left the court at half-time with a 33-22 lead. But the tables turned, and the game ended with Stout winning 73 to 58.
In the fourth game of the season Iowa State Teachers came to Winona, and with AI Svenningson scoring 27 points, the Warriors responded with their first win of the season, 81 to 79. Freshman, Don Klagge came off the bench late in the game and turned in an outstanding defensive game.
Next the Warriors traveled to La Crosse and won their second game 93 to 77. AI Svenningson tossed in 29 points. South Dakota University was next, and the Warriors lost 88 to 59. Four more defeats followed at Loras College, 76 to 63; Lincoln University, 78 to 62; St. Mary's College, 101 to 87; and Oshkosh, 94 to 83. Stevens Point was next on the calendar with 11 straight wins. The Warriors came up with an outstanding ball game to down Stevens Point, 83 to 73. The next night Stout was host to Winona, and the Warriors were defeated, 85 to 69.
The conference season opened for the Warriors in a game with St. Cloud at St. Cloud. The Huskies downed the locals, 106 to 84. Moorhead traveled to Winona for our conference home opener and won, 91 to 84. The Warriors led at halftime, 39 to 37, and had the lead at various times throughout the second half.
Monte Sprute Don Behrens Larry Engel Svenningson eyeing up a two pointer against Stout.Bemidji was next, and the Beavers pulled out late in the game, winning 69 to 64. The Warriors then traveled to Mankato to finish the first round of conference action. Mankato won 89 to 74. To open the second round of conference play, the Warriors made their annual northern trip, playing first at Moorhead, and then at Bemidji. At Moorhead the Peds again moved into a lead at halftime, but fell behind during the last minutes. The final score was Moorhead 84 and Winona 75. The next night at Bemidji, the Warriors fell behind, 91 to 57.
The Warriors then traveled to Oshkosh for a non - conference affair with the Oshkosh Titans. We lost, in overtime 85 to 81. With freshman Don Behrens leading the way, the Peds put on a terrific rally to tie the game after being behind by as much as 15 points. St. Cloud was next, and we lost, this time 85 to 73.
With only two left on the schedule, and only 3 wins on the credit side of the Warriors' ledger, St. Mary's moved into Memorial Hall. In what was supposed to be a bang-up ballgame, St.
Mary's pulled away after a close first half, to win 82 to 64, and for the first time in several years, the inter-city championship returned to St. Mary's. In the last game of the season, Mankato traveled to Winona. Spirits were not high, and the prospect of winning was not too encouraging. With the student bodyshowing more enthusiasm than they showed the entire season, the Warriors came to life. AI Svenningson tossed in 26 points, and Craig Currier, playing his last game for Winona State tallied 21. The Peds moved out in front at the start, and stayed there to the finish. The final score read 84 for Winona, and 73 for the Indians of Mankato.
The outlook for next season seems exceptionally good. Nine of the ten letterwinners will be back, and with an added year's experience behind each of them, a successful season should be in store.
Jon Kaiser Bill Morse Don Klagge Warriors getting a rousing cheer from students.The Freshman or "B" squad, which was coached by Doug Page and Jerry Seeman, had a relatively successful season. Games were played with Mankato, St. Mary's, La Crosse, and several string independent teams in the area. The squad served as a "farmclub" or "feeder" squad to the varsity, and at least half of the squad, at one time or another, were moved up to the varsity
as starters. Among these were Don Klagge, Don Behrens, Jon Kaiser, Larry Engel, and Herb Espinda. Other members of the squad included Gordon Mahoney, Dick Doss, Chuck Gaulke, Keith Nelson, and Lorry Gunhus. Highlights of the season were a one point victory over previously unbeaten Mankato and a revenge victory over St. Mary's.
Under the guidance of new head coach Bob Jones, the Warriors achieved a 3-4-1 record in dual meet competition. The Warriors also gained a fifth place finish out of fifteen teams at the Carleton Invitational, and a fourth place spot in the conference meet.
Building with only two lettermen from the previous year. Captain Jack Strommer, and Bill Ziebell, Coach Jones gained fine performances from freshmen John De Lozier, Glen Johnson, Dick Berg, John Hempstead, and Curt Nickel. Juniors LaVerne Pieper, and Dean Sanderson also turned in fine bits of wrestling.
Highlights of the season included Captain Jack Strommer's Carleton Invitational Championship, and his unbeaten string of 22 straight wins, which was finally snapped in the conference meet. Also high on the list was the one point victory over Loras College, and the exceptionally fine showing of several new men who until this year had never wrestled. Strommer, Pieper, and Ziebell won second places in the conference.
Conditioning seemed to be the general overall factor for the success the team enjoyed.

The Peds, although they failed to win the Conference Championship, battled right down to the final game, St. Cloud won the championship on the strength of its 13 to 5 victory over the Warriors in the second game of a doubleheader. The Warriors had set the stage for the championship game by downing St. Cloud in the opener, 7 to 3.
Many seasoned ballplayers and lettermen returned to the squad. The pitching staff was unusually strong with Jack McGrath, Lee Paul, Bill Schwarz, George Whipple, and John Carter carrying most of the weight. Late in the season, Don Segermark took the mound for the first time. The infield was made up of Bill Wieczorek, at first base, Dick Beberg and Jim Miner, who alternated between second base and shortstop, and Ric Hubbard, a newcomer to the Warrior camp, at third. The outfield had Fred Hoeft in left, Ben Cook in center, and Dale Timm in right. Frank Jaszewski handled the catching.
The Peds opened their season with their annual southern trip. This year the squad swung down through Missouri, Illinois, and Iowa. St. Louis University won the opener, 7 to 5. Next in line was Quincy College of Illinois. The Warriors split with them, losing the first game 7 to 6, and winning the second 15 to 1. Loras College won two games, 5 to 2 and 6 to 2. Back home, St. Mary's whitewashed the Peds 9 to 0. Sporting a 1-5 record, the Warriors started their come-back with a double win over Mankato, 8 to 1 and 6 to 2. Then came a split with Stout with Winona winning the first game, 6 to 2, and dropping the second, 5 to 3. This game later cost the Warriors a share of the Conference Championship. Next was Eau Claire, where we took a double-header, 3 to 1 and 7 to 2.
In the following game, the Warriors gained revenge by topping St. Mary's, 6 to 4. La Crosse then dumped us, 7 to 3. River Falls fell in a double-header, 5 to 1 and 7 to 0. La Crosse and Upper Iowa hung successive losses on the Peds, 7 to 2 and 11 to 6, respectively. Carleton was an easy victim, 21 to 4, to set the stage for the championship battle against St. Cloud. Winona needed both ends of a double-header to win the championship, while St. Cloud needed only a split. St. Cloud managed the split, and the Warriors had to settle for second place. The overall record for the season was 11 wins and 10 losses.
With coach Gene Brodhagen leading the Warrior track squad through his last season as track coach, the college was represented by the best squad in recent years to come out of State.
For the most part, the track squad did a commendable job all season long in facing the tough competition from Mankato, La Crosse, and River Falls to name a few. In the tough Bi-State and State College Conferences, the Warriors placed a strong fourth, and fifth.
Dashmen Jerry Ebert, Delwin Tschumper, and
Roger Krause headed the list of placers, and were very ably supported by Jack Strommer, John Bratrud, King Miller, Jerry Tedrow, and AI Meyers. Ebert was the 100 yard dash champion in both conferences, and Krause the 220 yard low hurdle champion in the Bi-State.
With the resignation of Brodhagen came a new coach in the person of Mr. Robert Jones, the wrestling coach this past season, whose job it will be, in part, to build track to a popular and major sport.
The 1956 Winona State Golf Team enjoyed one of its best seasons in some time on the strength of Coach Lyle Arns' five freshmen. Wins were posted over Stout, River Falls, Eau Claire, Bemidji, and Rochester JC. La Crosse, St. Mary's, and Mankato were the only teams to hand the locals defeat. Highlights of the season were the annual Bi-State meet and the Conference Meet. In the Bi-State meet, the Warriors put on a strong finish to end up second behind Mankato. Doug Page led the Warriors with an 81, while Earl Buswell carded
an 84. In the conference meet the Warriors added another second, again finishing behind Mankato. Jim Jacobs, the Warriors' number one man throughout the season, shot three rounds of near par golf to lead Winona. Letter-winners on the squad included Jim Jacobs, Dennis Syverson, Earl Buswell, Doug Page, and Keith Burmeister. Prospects for the 1957 season are very bright with all the returning lettermen back for another season.
Tennis, after a lapse of several years, was again revived as a sport at Winona. Matches were pJayed with Rochester JC, St. Mary's, Mankato, and Stout. Wins were posted over St. Mary's, 9 to 0, and Rochester, twice, by identical scores of 5 to 4. In the conference meet, held at Mankato, the Warriors battled their way to a third place tie. In the Bi-State meet, held at St. Cloud, the Warriors finished a disappointing last. Letterwinners on the squad included Russ Blankenfeld, Bill Kortsch, Bob Luehman, and Gary Evenson. The outlook for the 1957 season looked promising as only senior Bill Kortsch was lost through graduation.
The "W" Club, the men's athletic club on the campus, is composed of letter-winners from all inter-collegiate athletics. During the past year the club again sponsored their annual fish and chips dinner which was, as it has been in the past, a huge success. The club also operated the concession stand during basketball games. The annual picnic was held late in May, and from all reports, was one of the main "social" events of the year. Officers were president. Bill Ziebell; vice-president, LaVerne Pieper; and treasurer, Jerry Ebert. The physical education staff served as advisers to the club.
W.R.A. had one of its busiest years, as its members found many activities to keep them occupied. Volleyball was the fall sport, and enough girls turned out to make up six teams. A fast and furious tournament followed, and when the dust had settled, Marian Culbertson's team emerged champions.
Basketball took up where volleyball left off, and six determined teams battled it out to the finish. Louise Schneider's team was crowned champions with a commanding 10-0 record.
Sportsdays played an important part in the activities of the group. Winona attended several sportsdays out-of-town and often out-of-state. In addition, the W. R. A. acted as host for several sportsdays.
The State Play Day at Duluth presented an opportunity for a busload of Winona Staters to meet W.R.A. members from many colleges throughout the state.
Swim Club, theclub within a club, organized in the fall, and all members began to look forward to the swim show, "Swim Fantasy" which was given March 29. Seasoned members as well as enthusiastic freshmen worked hard to make the show a success.
The modern dance group, Orchesis, exercised diligently for body conditioning, and the beat of a drum could be heard keeping time as the girls worked on their dances.
Among the activities sponsored by W.R.A. are co-rec nights and open swims.
Officers of the 1956-57 W.R.A. were president, Louise Schroeder; vice-president, Olive Tovson; secretary-treasurer, Barbara Renslo.
