W. Heyd Head of the Division of Language and Literature, Professor Heyd is a senior member of the College faculty, having first come to the campus in 1905. A thorough scholar and teacher, Mr. Heyd has given his best years in service to students of the Teachers College. A sponsor of the Student Council for twenty-one years, he retired from this office at his own request last year. (Page 4) Last year we reconverted When the men came back to stay ...

They wasted no time chalking up their first victory by defeating Iowa Wesleyan 18-0. They continued to drive until the final gun of the last game. They finished with a splendid record which was five wins, two ties, and two losses, the losses going to a strong Carbondale team and the Cape Girardeau Indians who were the M.I.A.A. champs. Darrel Gourley, an expert passer and excellent quarterback, and Kenneth Gardner, captain and right tackle, were chosen as All-Conference players. Gardner was chosen also to play in the Mo-Kansas game in Kansas City. In 1945 we saw football come back to the campus after a lapse of three years, and in 1946 we saw an even stronger comeback. Coaches Jimmy Dougherty and Boyd King deserve to be congratulated on the record of the '46 Bulldogs. (On page 15) Upper Left: Drennan, fullback, one of Dougherty's strong reserves.

Basketball at the Teachers College has taken the lime light in the field of sports this year. The Bulldogs, thanks to Illinois, are the strongest team that the College has ever had. The M.I.A.A. Championship was, for the last several years, thought of but never taken. This year the Bulldogs ripped and tore their way through to the Championship with only one defeat, by Springfield. Dodd, an expert ball handler and shot, and Gallatin, center and tipster artist, were chosen All-Conference. Lewis was picked for the second team, and Semanek and Pink were given honorable mention in the All-Conference election. These were the most players ever picked and mentioned for Kirksville in the M.I.A.A. election. The coaches, Boyd King and Jimmy Dougherty, deserve a tremendous amount of credit for coaching and controlling such an expert group of ball players as these. The Bulldogs, through their great ability as a team, received the coveted honor of playing in the N.I.A.B. in Kansas City, an honor which has never before been bestowed on the Kirksville Cagers. They won their first two games, defeating Cleveland, Mississippi, 76-58, and their second game, Whittier, California, 51-49, and lost their third game to Flagstaff, Arizona, 59-55, which eliminated them from the N.I.A.B., but not without a gallant struggle from the Bulldogs. (Page 19) (Page 20) Intra-Murals Intra-mural athletics went full tilt this last year with 160 men composing 16 teams in basketball and 48 men composing 6 teams in volley ball. John Spainhower's "Old Men's Team" won the intramural basketball tournament, while in volley ball Francis Dant's " Illini " were victors. Delbert Maddox receives the credit for keeping all intramural activities running smoothly. Members of the winning basketball team were: Spainhower, Morris, Forrester, Gardner, Clark, Harkey, Sparks, Benny, Mosely, and Scurlock. Softball for '47 had not been organized when the Echo went to press, but through the fast-moving season in '46 the Veterans' team was the champ without a defeat. Members of the winning team included Davis, Gardner, Osborne, Goodale, Hoskins, Menze, Baker and Goeke.

(Page 35) Social Director For the past year Mrs. Homer Knight has substituted for the Dean of Women. As our social director, she has efficiently planned and directed social activities, as well as acting as hostess at various functions. From the vantage point of her office on first floor of Baldwin Hall, she has dispensed advice to women to aid them in the adjustment to their social and individual problems, and has effectively supervised students' housing facilities. Dean of Faculty Dr. L. A. Eubank has served as the dean of the faculty for the past twenty years. In this position, he arranges and presides over college assemblies, acts as admission officer for all students, keeps a permanent record of student grades, is the general supervisor of the educational program. With the entrance of many veterans, he evaluates army credits for them. These are only a few of the numerous services he performs. (Page 36) HEADS OF DIVISIONS Dr. C. H. Allen is chairman of the Division of Personnel Service, an administrative division of the College dealing with personal problems of the student body and the relationship between the students and the school. This division includes the offices of the Bureau of Guidance, Dean of Women, Psychological and Educational Clinics, and Health Service. Dr. Allen is also Vocational Appraisor in cooperation with the Veteran's Administration Guidance Center in the advising and counseling of veteran students. Prof. J. T. Angus heads the division of Extension Service. This division has developed with the increased activity of the Teachers College throughout Northeast Missouri. It is an agency dealing with public relations and with those activities which extend its services beyond the campus. The division at present is composed of the Bureau of Field Service, the Bureau of Correspondence and Extension Teaching, and the Bureau of Placements. Bailey Wright is director of the Division of Business Service which is responsible for administering funds and the maintenance of the Teachers College. All disbursements and institutional purchases of the College are made through his office. For students who need short loans, this office handles the Student Memorial Loan Fund.

With enrollment almost doubled the council members rolled up their sleeves and went to work to provide a full calendar of social activities with the emphasis on variety. Open houses (remember those free doughnuts and jugs of cider?) with entertainment by the social fraternities and sororities plus dancing, ping-pong, card playing, and oh, such fun! School shows (in technicolor), class teas, dances and a bigger and better carnival netting $540 for student activities and the Echo. The "coppers" literally poured into the ballot boxes during another close and exciting contest for queen. Plenty of carnival atmospher--confetti, fiesta gals, and Pink Elephant Coketail Lounge, plus a full program of stunts (remember Dark Town Poker Club and Mother Murphy's Meatballs?). Dreamy music and colorful decorations sent us home with the holiday spirit from the Christmas Dance. Spring quarter featured a coronation Ball and the crowning of the Echo Queen. A variety of all-school activities were the result of a Student Council working tirelessly for the interest of the student body with the guidance of the sponsor, Dr. C. H. Allen, and the cooperation of both political parties. (Page 40) FACULTY Lula Allen, business education Norvell C. Allen, agriculture Otho Barnett, industrial arts Bernice Beggs, English J. L.

FINE ARTS Understanding and appreciation of those cultural elements, music and art, is recognized as one of the marks of a truly educated individual. Second floor, Baldwin Hall to the left, is the cradle of sharps and flats, treble and bass, sweet and sour. Directing the do-re-mi's of future concert artists and prima donnas both individually and collectively are Miss Phradie Wells and Mr. R. E. Valentine. Mrs. Irene Dailey and Mr. J. L. Biggerstaff patiently correct faltering fingers on the keyboards. The band is directed by Mr. Karl Webb, head of the division, and the instrumental instruction is given by both Mr. Webb and Mr. John Goetze. Giving out with stirring music at games and assemblies, the band has made a good record this year. Miss Wells' chorus contributed Christmas music for the tea and assembly program. The whole department launched the spring season with the operetta "H.M.S. Pinafore." The third floor Baldwin Hall (to the left again!) is the haven of the talented in drawing. There paints, pencils, and crayons are applied industriously and hopefully by aspiring Raphaels. Go up sometime and look at the various art exhibits Miss Bracy Cornett receives from the American Federation of Arts. Design in various forms through many media, lettering, and weaving are Miss Cornett's special courses. Miss Ruth Straight guides the students in classes of representation where murals and portraits are made.

A highlight was a talk by Miss Vera Fawcett, discussing the songs which come from Shakespeare's plays. A few of these were played on the piano by Steve Melvin and sung by Mr. R. E. Valentine. Clara Smith was in charge of a Christmas program devoted to the study of Christmas symbols and the singing of Christmas songs. Others programs were given by Mr. Karl Webb on the requirements of music majors, Mary F. Ruhwedel on Modern Music, and Mrs Irene Dailey on Contest Music.

HONORARY ART CLUB (Page 48) Shorthand--the Kauzlarich way. Dr. Selby keeps close account in accounting class BUSINESS EDUCATION The Business Education Department, under the direction of Dr. P. O. Selby, is located on the third floor of Baldwin Hall. Other faculty members of the division are Mr. Charles Kauzlarich, Mrs. Laura Summers, and Mrs. C. H. Allen. Business Education has been taught continuously on the campus since 1908. This is one of the oldest of teacher-training institutions in the work of preparing business teachers. The institution, however, really made a much earlier start than 1908 in business courses. When the institution was started in 1867 by Joseph Baldwin it was called the "North Missouri Normal School and Commercial College." Courses in bookkeeping and penmanship were given at that time and were continued in the State Normal School which succeeded Baldwin's school until about 1900. In recent months work in preparing young men for business (mostly ex-G.I.'s) has been the dominant program of the division. (Page 49) PI OMEGA PI For those students interested in Business Education, Alpha Chapter Pi Omega Pi, social-educational organization, sponsored by Dr. P. O. Selby, was founded at the Teachers College in 1923. It has grown until it now has 62 chapters. During this past year, 1946-47, Alpha Chapter has increased its membership to 30. In order to become a member of Pi Omega Pi a student must have either 15 hours of business education or 10 hours of business education and 5 hours of education. Twice a month the members enjoyed an educational program, sometimes with an added attraction--refreshments. Members of Pi Omega Pi participated in college annual events by contributing a float to the Homecoming Parade and by having an ice cream stand at the carnival. Two members, Mrs. Ruth Roderick and Mrs. Laura Summers of the faculty, attended the National Convention in Chicago during December.

(Page 50) "He who knows not and knows he knows not ... he is a child, teach him." EDUCATION DEPARTMENT The Division of Education represents the professional phase of teacher education in the College curriculum. Each student who receives a Bachelor of Science degree in Education and life certificate to teach in Missouri schools must include in his program twenty semester hours of work in education. In addition to courses in educational theory, the Division administers the two laboratory schools, Greenwood and Ophelia Parrish, where prospective teachers observe and assist in teaching in their major subject fields. The laboratory schools are a vital part of the program of teacher education. Members of the Division of Education are rendering such other services in the college as guidance and personnel service, in-service training, rural school visitation, and library service, in addition to the work of instruction, administration and supervision in the laboratory schools. The Education Division sponsors two conferences each year: The Rural Life Conference in March and the County Superintendents' meeting in June. A graduate program in Education is being introduced in the summer of 1947. Majors will be offered in School Administration and Elementary Education leading to the degree of Master of Arts. Graduate courses in Education will also be offered to assist in the preparation of high school teachers who are majoring in a field other than Education.

(Page 52) Health and Physical Education At the helm of the Health and Physical Education department is Dr. A. F. Miller who with assistants Zoller, Wille, Maddox, King, and Dougherty reaped a bumper crop of fledgling muscle men and (our pardons, girls) muscle women. Dr. Miller and Miss Zoller, besides teaching various classes in health and hygiene, administer first aid where first aid is due. Mrs. Wille, of the women's physical education department, developed in her department the recreational leadership course. W.A.A., Modern Dance, and the Howler's Club also were under her supervision. In the men's physical education department Mr. Maddox, clinched the male students' interest in sports by promoting and supervising intramurals. Gymnastics, boxing, volleyball, and weight-lifting were added attractions to which many students turned their talents. The men's department also developed the recreational leadership course. Ouch! Watch that needle! Dr. Clevenger's microbe masters. A new physical ed. element--Zachow's boxers.

Third Picture: Beverly Hull, Kay Kinne, Kathleen Logan, Marian Kiger. Six Teachers College girls interested in modern dancing organized the Modern Dance Club sponsored by Mrs. Marion Wille. During the year, these girls not only danced for their own enjoyment but also gave an assembly which illustrated different types of dances. They were also asked to demonstrate these dances before several of Kirksville's civic clubs. The dances on which the members worked especially are the Tango, Giannia Mia, Mexican Hat Dance, Japanese Sand Man and individual interpretative dances. Beverly Hull led the club through the year as president; vice-president was "Sis" Menze; and secretary-treasurer was Kay Kinne. Other members of the club were Marian Kiger, Ruth Caldwell and Kathleen Logan.

Dutchman's breeches and skirts. Volley Ball back bend. Women's Athletic Association Between hikes and parties, tournaments and redecorating, W. A. A. was undoubtedly the busiest if not the most active organization on the campus during the year. In the fall two stiff tournaments of tennis and badminton opened the school year with a "bang." Winter came and brought along with it a volleyball tournament won by a team led by "Sis" Menze and a fast basketball tournament won by the Alpha Sigma Alpha sorority. While tournaments kept everyone busy, W. A. A. managed to borrow some time for a hike out to Ownbey's lake, a "hobo" party staged in the women's gym, and a food concession at the all-school carnival. (Page 56) What's cookin,' Mrs. Buckingham? "Rip it all out and sew it up again!" Division of Home Economics This year marks the thirty-fifth anniversary of the Division of Home Economics. The work in home economics was started under the department title of Farm and Household Economics. The first teachers assisted the agriculture teachers in courses in dairying, animal husbandry, and sanitation. Through a gradual process of evolution the division has now become a definite feminine organization. The division has for its objective the improvement of home and family living and has striven through the years to keep abreast of the best thinking in that field. The coming year will see certain changes made to meet the vocational requirements needed under the George-Barden Act. Most of the girls majoring in the division train for teaching in vocational home economics departments in high school. However, there are some who find positions in extension service or farm home administration. Others go to universities for training as dietitians or institutional managers. And then there are those who become homemakers and really give their college education the practical test. (Page 57) ELLEN H. RICHARDS The Ellen H. Richards Club, named for one of the national founders of the Home Economics movement, is one of the oldest clubs on the campus and carries on an active program. Some of the activities for the year include the Christmas party which, has been held annually for 25 years, a Valentine Tea, and two campus service projects; namely, the making of cookies for the faculty Christmas Tea, and the feeding of the seniors on High School Senior Day. Seated: Mrs. Clara Clevenger, Zelma Palmer, secretary; Marjorie Murfin, Jaciel Taylor, Martha Todd, vice-president; Mrs. Lena Buckingham, Joyce Johnson, president; Eda Mae Mathews, Evelyn Guy, Marian Lee Anderson, treasurer.

Tea time, veddy English, too--from the fall play, "Fresh Fields." (Page 59) LITERATURE 'Ain't' aint' a word!" screams an exasperated professor of the Language and Literature division trying desperately to improve the grammar of students in the Teachers College. "It sure ain't," agrees a thoroughly convinced class whose members at long last have learned to "talk like professors." The division, headed by Prof. J. W. Heyd, has done a splendid job in all departments. The departments of literature, Speech, English, French, German, Latin, and Spanish have greatly increased enrollments this year. Instruction is handled by a capable group of teachers which includes, besides Mr. Heyd, Miss Nan E. Wade with her million-dollar smile, Miss Vera Fawcett and her pleasant "good morning" face, the golden-voiced Miss Janet Leslie, that gentleman of Broadway, Mr. Sherod Collins, the lady with the "anybody going to the Graphic?" greeting--Miss Agnes Slemons, the senorita from Costa Rica--Miss Maria Acevedo, the gentlewoman of the faculty--Miss Viola Magee, the poetess-authoress of the division--Miss Berenice Beggs, and last but not least, a newcomer, the dignified and charming Mrs. Alma B. Martin. Classes, term papers, the Romance Language clubs, Pi Kappa Delta, Readers' Round Table, College Players, parties, the Index, the Echo, plays, debates, and the Midwest Speech Tournament have kept both students and teachers in the Language and Literature division busy, busier, and busiest.

THE PRACTICAL ARTS Starting the school year with a record number of students enrolled, the Practical Arts building was the scene of intense activity. Veterans of World War II comprised ninety-five per cent of the students in the five departments. Mr. Otho Barnett is the head of this division. The Metal Working Shop, supervised by Mr. Ralph Shain, added the following new machines: a surface grinder, power hack-saw, and several electric welders. The fall-quarter students designed and built a foundry unit which was placed in operation during the latter part of the year. A new blue-printing machine was secured for the students in the drawing classes. The Woodworking Shop obtained a new tool grinder, jigsaw, surfacer, mortising machine and work benches. Increasing student interest in aviation expanded the Preflight Aeronautics Department. An At-6 type aircraft was secured for ground training purposes and other aircraft engines for classroom demonstrations. The purpose of the Agriculture Department is to train teachers in this field and to serve as a background for pre-professional students who will finish their training at other schools. Mr. N. C. Allen supervises this department. (Page 63) Back Row: Mr. Norvell Allen, sponsor; Leonard Moritz, secretary; Riley Singley, John E Biros, Byrl Young, Clifford Cosby, president; Otis Hills, Glen D.

AGRICULTURE CLUB Heading the calendar of social activities, the annual Ag' Club Barn Warming, held during the fall-quarter and always a colorful affair, was climaxed with the crowning of Miss Martha Ann Todd as queen. Miss Todd is from Macon. A stand, featuring game roosters and refreshments, was maintained by the club at the Kirksville Fall Festival. Money obtained from this source was used to purchase Ag' Club pins for the members and to supply refreshments for later "get-to-gethers" during the year. Interesting lectures on Ag' subjects were presented at various meetings of the year. Mr. Shirley Ross, county agent, discussed balanced farming; and Mr. Clovis James, vocational agriculture teacher at the Kirksville High School, also presented a program to the club. Sponsoring and managing the annual Northeast Missouri High School Agriculture contest provided plenty of work, fun and excitement during the spring-quarter. Offering elimination contests in livestock, dairy and dairy products, farm crops, and farm shop, the show presented opportunities for individual members to exercise their judging ability. Returning veterans of World War II swelled the membership of the club to over thirty active members. (Page 64) (a) Something shot off at a tangent, no doubt, (b) Dr. Reiger, head of the science division and mathematics, chemistry chief. SCIENCE Fairly bulging at the seams from the huge flow of veterans back on the campus, the Mathematics and Science Department, under the direction of Dr. Wray M. Rieger, has done a wonderful job this year of preparing the students in that department for the road they will travel upon graduation or transfer to other schools. While the department was primarily organized for the training of teachers, the mass exodus of young people from the educational field has caused a sharp rise in the percentage of preprofessional students enrolled. With the aid of much newly-installed laboratory equipment, recently purchased from Central Wesleyan College, the Math and Science Division is offering a complete program. Dr. Lewis Clevenger, assisted by Dr. W. T. Reeves, directs the biology work. It is here, too, that Professors Jamison and Pemberton are busily trying to teach algebra, trigonometry, analytical geometry, and calculus. In general science, Dr. W. J. Bray astounds the green freshmen with the complexities of natural law in "Man and the Scientific World," and Dr. Rieger helps the future scientists distinguish quartz from limestone in his geology classes. Dr. Rieger and Dr. Bray share the burden of the chemistry classes. Mr. Eugene Smith teaches electricity and magnetism and mechanics. (Page 65) A little of this and a smidge of that and BOOM!"

(Page 66) DIVISION OF SOCIAL SCIENCE The social science division has rounded out a year of research and teaching in the fields of geography, history, political science, economics, and sociology. The efficient head of the social science division is Miss Lucy Simmons. Dr. Homer L. Knight and Mr. N. P. Richardson preside over latitude and longitude in the geography department. Teachers in the history department are: Dr. G. V. Burroughs, Dr. H. L. Knight, Dr. Pauline Knobbs, Miss Martha Redford, Miss Lucy Simmons. In the political science department, Mr. J. T. Angus is the capable instructor. The economics and sociology department has two efficient intructors, Dr. Clara Clevenger and Mr. Bailey Wright. A newcomer to the social science division is Mr. J. H. Neville, formerly superintendent of schools in Kirksville. The active club of the department is the Historical Society. Celebrating its fortieth birthday, the Historical Society climaxed its anniversary year with its annual banquet. It was founded in 1906 by Mr. J. H. McKinney. The society represented Mr. David Blanton in the presentation of the portrait of President J. P. Blanton this fall. Other activities included two teas and a motion picture. High point in the anniversary celebration was the Founders Day Banquet and the address by Dr. Francis English of the University of Missouri.

(Page 86) THE VETERAN'S CLUB The Veteran's Club, the newest and largest organization on the campus, went into its second year of existence with a membership roster jam-packed with names of "our conquering heroes." The retiring president, Kenny Baker, turned the reins over to Norman Brantley at this year's election. Brantley has done an admirable job at the helm, having cooperated with the school's administration and the student body in a commendable manner. The club supported its queen candidate to the nth degree in the all-school carnival, only to have her beaten by a few pennies. (Beauty is on a cash basis here.) The benefit dance for the purpose of raising money for some handicapped or needy student was a howling success and the proceeds from said function bolstered the amount already set aside in the treasury (Page 87) VETERANS CLUB OFFICERS Standing: Robert Ewing, vice-president; Shelton Pearson, sergeant-at-arms.
