ADMINISTRATION

(Page 3)

No one studies harder, learns more, or awaits the bell any more than our teachers. No one worries more 
about our school or gives more time to its betterment than our administrators. From our simplest class 
problem to our most intimate secretes, they set the example for us and teach us how to cope with them. 
From the highest professor to the newest member of the staff - we learn from them and as true humans, 
they learn from the students. Here, then, are the ones that teach us the whats, whens, wheres, whys and 
hows of success, freedom and brotherhood.

Leaders in the college today; leaders of America tomorrow--that is the 
college student. They come as green freshmen, illiterate to the paths of 
college life. They progress to a higher standing and in their progression, 
they learn higher standards and morals. As their college life comes to a 
finale, the student finds that he is no longer the inexperienced embryo of 
innocence that set foot on the campus four years previously, but a social 
creature, seeking to glean success in struggling world. You see them here 
as the bud of progress.

Four social sororities, three social fraternities and many other campus 
organizations--put them all together and it will come out the same every time. 
The meeting now come to order. . .Any suggestions on rebuilding our sagging 
treasury. . . What time is the dance. . . Who's on the committee with me. . . Do 
you think they'll depledge us for it. . . How many new lettermen are there 
this year. . . Boy! It's great to belong to the gang. And they all come out 
the same every time because organizations for the mutual gain of all is a trait 
of educated people all over the world. Psychologically, anyone who feels that 
he belongs to the crowd will progress with the knowledge that his friends are 
backing him all the way.

Blue Key

The highest men's honor fraternity is one of the popular service 
fraternities on the campus. Probably the biggest service the Blue Key 
members do is the publishing of the student directory each year.

Other yearly projects of these Blue Key members are: showing the 
campus attractions to visitors on Parents Day, taking charge of the 
Homecoming Parade and ushering at baccalaureate and commencement 
exercises.

Pledgeship is not just an everyday occurrence of an everyday guy. 
The organization is limited to twenty men with high scholastic averages, 
outstanding qualities in character, service and leadership.

Pre-Osteopathic Club

The Pre-Osteopathic club spent a very quiet social year 
but progressed very much in attaining the professional attitude 
of the club. Many interesting lectures were presented to the 
club on osteopathy and many medical movies enlightened the group. 
The important projects of the club were their visit to Still-Hildreath 
Sanatorium at Macon and the traditional visit to KCOS.

The Pre-Osteopathic club feels that we have broadened our 
knowledge of osteopathy and the club has accomplished its goal 
to help make us more conscious of the need for good doctors of 
tomorrow.

with the famous production, "Oklahoma," which was done by the 
College Players and the Music Department combined, on April 
17, 18, and 19, in Kirk Auditorium.

Two students directed one-act plays given February 21 in 
Little Theatre, which were "The Long Voyage Home," directed 
by Kenneth Barker, and "Early Frost," directed by 
Elaine Wellborn.

in their native costumes, and performing their customary dances.

Every year this organization sponsors an International Club 
dance, on March 7, and the decorations are imported from the 
students' own lands, such as flowers, etc.

Index Staff

The main aim of the Index staff this year is to win again the 
first place MCNA Plaque which they won last May for the best college 
paper in the state. As the Echo goes to press it is too early to 
know the outcome.

Colored nameplates and headlines prevailed and two special 
football and basketball issues also took top honors on the campus.

The Index also helped in the passing of the $75,000,000 Bond 
Proposition by printing pictures showing the need of repairs and 
new buildings on campus.

A trip to the University of Missouri Journalism Workshop this 
fall gave many staff members a new slant on newswriting.

Eloise Seaman kept the ads coming in all year while 
Pat Shelton Bristol and Edward S. Dodson kept the typewriter and 
linotype machines busy.

Miss Agnes Slemons, adviser, and H. Green Simpson, typographer, 
were always on hand when the first runs came off the press.

Baptist Student Union

We gave a big welcome to the new students last fall with our welcome 
booth in Baldwin Hall with smiles and lemonade for everyone. Six of our 
students and the Student Director took a trip to the Glorieta Baptist 
Assembly in Glorieta, N. M.

Religious Focus Week went over great with Mr. Denny and his five 
man crew.

With S/Sgt. John H. Reese, Jr., directing, our choir sang the 
interpretation of the theme at the State BSU Convention in Kansas City. 
Everyone was really mixed up at our backwards party in March, but in May 
no one was too mixed-up for food at our Spring Banquet.

attended the State Fall Retreat at the Lake of the Ozarks 
held in October.

The past summer five DSF'ers attended the National DSF Convention 
at Lake Webster, Indiana, in late August.

During the Christmas season the group went caroling at the three 
community homes for the aged. Also two ice skating parties where most 
of the students spent their time falling down and getting up, but it 
was fun, wasn't it?

The group was host to the State Convention this year in March.

Officers for the year were Jack Rice, President; Shirley Barnett,

Wesley Foundation

The 1955-56 Wesley Foundation has been quite an active group. 
They started out the school year with a trip to Lake Poinsett, 
South Dakota; then came the Watermelon Feed; our first Homecoming Float; 
our first Trump Night skit; our own Wesley Directory; the trip to 
Spring Retreat, and our own newspaper, "Campus Capers."

The regular Sunday night meetings were the most important and solved 
many of our campus problems. They were sometimes very entertaining too. 
We had twelve officers, who were headed by: Bennie Wilsey, president; 
Lorraine Jerome, Vice-President; Betty Ross, Scretary; and Carl Baldwin, 
Treasurer.

The Wesley group will miss the Seniors next year, but we have quite 
a few Juniors, Sophomores, and Freshmen. So we should be real active 
next year, so see you, '56-'57.

Newman Club

The Newman Club is a newly organized club for Catholic 
students on this campus. It is part of a large organization 
all over the country. To assist in the social and spiritual 
lives of its membership is its function.

Speakers were brought from different sections of Missouri 
to talk on problems with which many young adults are faced. At 
Christmas we gave a dance for the members and their friends.

A retreat was held at Conception Abbey, and a trip to the 
University of Iowa's chapter were a few of the many projects 
of the club besides the banquet which ended the year's activities.

Student Council

Political rallies, campaign badges, mud slinging and ballots, and then, a lot of great memories of 
election day. It all gave us an outstanding Student Council for '55-'56.

Dances after athletic events, Homecoming activities, assisting with Parents' Day in the fall and the 
preparation of the 5th Annual Trump Night were all a part of the Student Council activities.

Social Committee

From the first piece of crepe paper at the Homecoming Dance, 
to tearing down the last piece of decoration at the Echo Dance, 
the busy hands of the Student Social Committee worked.

The giant football for the entrance at the Homecoming Dance, 
the fireplace and the other decorations at the Christmas Dance, 
the Echo Dance decorations and the many letters to bands for all 
these dances were only part of this year's accomplishments by the 
Social Committee under Chairman Norma Wilson and the supervision 
of Dr. Pauline D. Knobbs.

Fifth Annual Trump Night. Queen Wegehoft was sponsored by Alpha Sigma Alpha, and King Dennis 
was sponsored by Sigma Tau Gamma.

It was evident that many long hard hours had gone into the preparation of the skits when the 
judging for first, second and third came around. After all the judges' votes were tallied, 
Alpha Sigma Alpha received first place recognition with their skit titled "The Life of Ryley" 
wherein they showed the ordinary dull class room day, considerably exaggerated. Delta Sigma Epsilon 
took second prize with their version of "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs," slightly altered for 
underwater action, and called "Seaweed Green and the Seven Sponges." With the idea of travel being 
useless when we have representatives of most of the world here on the campus, gave the International 
Club third prize for their skit, "Who Needs the Navy."

Basketball

With seven lettermen back this year, the Bulldogs claimed once more the MIAA Conference Championship.

Individual conference honors went to Rich Maack, the MIAA Basketball Sportsmanship Award and to Bill 
Ausmus, the Conference High Scoring Championship with 278 points. 

The Bulldogs got off to a roaring start of eight consecutive victories before their first defeat. They 
met defeat only twice in conference play.

Showing exceptional accuracy, the Purple and White Cagers thrilled the crowds by breaking the 100 mark 
four times and ending their season with a 17-4 record.

Women's Athletic Association

W.A.A, started off the year by having a get-acquainted party for the 
freshmen. Next came the intramurals--team sports and individual and 
dual sports.

One of our biggest events of the year was our Sports Day which was March 10. 
Many college volleyball teams participated in Kirk Auditorium that day.

We traveled to Missouri University for their volleyball tournament, 
March 24. Last year we took second place.

At the W.A.A. Banquet, the awards and trophies were presented and the 
installation of our new officers for next year took place.
