Bought a bond . . . donated money for a Red Cross ambulance . . . made kits for boys in the armed service. (Page 20) Pi Kappa Sigma Eerie lights, weird music, skeletons and black cats peering out from corners set the atmosphere for the first rush party, a Hallowe'en banquet at the Travelers. Everybody went Chinese at the next party given at Mrs. Lewis Clevenger's. Kimonos, pajamas, chow mein, and chopsticks were the order of the day. Founder's Day marked by formal pledging services and dinner downtown, the Christmas party with its contributions for a bond, and the Kappa Kid party, climax of Hell Week, were other highlights.

Twenty-four girls rushed, pledged Tri Sigma. Instead of having a convention this year as planned, national officers were sent to every chapter. Our visitor, Mrs. Lucille Morrison, national alumnae representative, spent three helpful days with us. Enriching our social life, the pledges presented a program at the Christmas party and later entertained with a "Dream Dance". The money ordinarily spent for gifts at the Christmas party was given to the Salvation Army. The annual spring formal was given up this year and in its place the Tri Sigmas joined the other sororities in planning a Pan-Hellenic dance. (Page 24) Phi Sigma Epsilon "Honor, Justice, Wisdom" . . . Gamma chapter and a year well spent . . . First smoker with Drs. Ryle and Hollenbach as guests. . .

Fall rush season ended with six pledges. . . Walter Beard was a fine papa bear . . . Winter quarter came with the annual rush banquet. Randolph Davis was speaker . . . Next came the 49'er Dance with the unusual decorations. Twelve pledges went through Hell Week, what with field trips for the Goats and Prexy Schmid. Uncle Sam began to call our boys and Paul Myers, a past president, presented us with a service flag, which now displays over one hundred stars. . . The spring formal was held early to beat the call of the Army Air Corps. . . What a time. . . Red, white and blue, with the white rose as favors. . . Outstanding sport event was when the "B" team almost beat the "A" team. . . Then came that smoker at Kemble Stout's and three new Goats. . . A fine year indeed. (Page 28) (Page 29) Blue Key A national honorary fraternity, Blue Key serves the school and student body. The main purpose of the original chapter of the Blue Key was to sponsor Homecoming. Too bad! Homecoming had to be enjoyed this year by remembering former queens, attendants, floats and the grand old football. Due to the war, Blue Key's activities have been limited. The Blue Key sponsored the Croatian musical organization, the Tamburitzans and sold tickets to a very successful performance. One of the highlights of the year was the annual Blue Key dance with the cooperation of Cardinal Key. War stamp corsages made by Cardinal Key girls for the Blue Key-Cardinal Key dance put $50 in stamps in the war effort. Other activities of the Blue Key include ushering at various events through the year and awarding a scholarship to an outstanding sophomore boy. Cardinal Key Yards of shining ribbon, acres of shimmering cellophane and brilliant crepe paper . . . oh, yes, and defense stamps . . . these were the principal ingredients of the "warchids", or defense stamp corsages, made by Cardinal Key which adorned every girl at the big Cardinal Key-Blue Key dance in February. Officers for this year were: Amy Ayres, president; Jane Jarman, vice-president; Janice Timson, secretary; Martha Taggart, treasurer; and Emma Jo Leslie, historian. At the beginning of the spring quarter Margaret Richardson was elected president and Frances Raine vice-president to replace the two who were graduated. Cardinal Key girls adopted a needy family at Christmas, gave money for first aid kits, worked at the gasoline rationing office, and gave two scholarships which were used in the fall quarter. Seventeen girls were initiated throughout the year. Teas were given at the homes of the sponsors, Misses Agnes Slemons and Nan E. Wade, during the year. (Page 30) Alpha Phi Omega The main project for the year for Alpha Phi Omega, was the fingerprinting of over one hundred students done under the general supervision of J. Edgar Hoover. . . Initiated President Ryle as an honorary sponsor. . . .Hard hit by Uncle Sam, as practically all of our members are now in service. E. L. Heying was president, Vernon Brockman, vice-president; Fred Kob, secretary; Clifford Foster, treasurer; George Heaberlin, corresponding secretary; Merle La Beau, alumni secretary. Prof. Ralph Shain is sponsor. Members this year are Merle Le Beau, Vernon Brockman, E. L. Heying, Clifford Foster, Arthur Huff, Vincent Strangio, George Heaberlin, Weldon Winter, C. C. Thompson, Bill Deskin, George Hamm, E. L. Slaughter, Fred Kob. Kappa Delta Pi Intellectual elite! That's Kappa Delta Pi even though they are often confronted with baffling problems. . . Yes, I think Maude Slocum knows the best kind of butcher knife for slicing ice cream, as she had to buy her landlady one after the social last summer. . . Chef Rothschild, we'd like your recipe for glazed sweet jams. Remember that "ersatz" banquet Kappa Delta Pi gave when Mallincrodt was initiated? Well, anyway they had the last course, cake and ice cream. Officers of Kappa Delta Pi are: President, Amy Ayres; Vice-President, Janice Timson; Secretary, Martha Rinehart; Treasurer, Mrs. Wanda Holcroft Knapp. Alpha Phi Sigma An imitation "Information, Please" program and a talk on India by Prof. J. L. Biggerstaff were two of the highlights in this year's program in Alpha Phi Sigma, honorary scholastic fraternity. A number of socials were held in addition to regular meetings. Don Wilgus was elected president, but upon his graduation he was succeeded by Lois Drennan. Other officers are: Leonard Griffin, vice-president; Pansy Ewing, secretary; and Joe Ayres, treasurer. Noah P. Richardson is the faculty sponsor. Each year Alpha Phi Sigma awards a scholarship to the outstanding sophomore member. Membership is limited to high school valedictorians and salutatorians and college students who meet certain requirements. Thirty-five students were initiated this year, fourteen of these receiving Master's degrees, the highest honor conferred by the organization. There are now seventeen members holding Master's degrees. One of the projects of the year was the preparation of an honor roll of members now in service. (Page 31) (Page 32) (Page 33) Pi Omega Pi On June 13, 1943, Pi Omega Pi will have its twentieth birthday. The Alpha chapter of this fraternity was established on the campus under the leadership of Dr. P. O. Selby, head of the Business Education Division. The charter members included thirteen students and two teachers. Since that time, the membership of this chapter has risen to 346 members. Pi Omega Pi became a national organization in 1927, and now has fifty-six chapters in thirty-two states. Talks by President W. H. Ryle, Mr. Henry Enochs, and Mr. Fisher; our banquet in January, and our initiations each quarter have been the highlights of the past year. Front row: Dr. P. O. Selby, founder; Doris Pickens, treasurer; Clifford Chambers, president; Twila Jones, secretary; Miss Ruth Roberts, co-sponsor. Second row: Weger, Roberts, Evans, Eiffert, Ewing, Stein. Back row: Struby, Taggart, Summers, Hensley, Wein. Pre-Osteopathic Club The Pre-Osteopathic Club is an organization which prepares students for entrance to the Kirksville College of Osteopathy and Surgery, organized in 1940. This year it is composed of eleven members. This year the Pre-Osteopathic Club have had such guest speakers as Dr. W. C. Kelly, dermatologist; Dr. George M. Laughlin, president of K.C.O.S., and Dr. Harold D. McClure, Director of Public Clinics. The following is a list of the members: Patricia Schultz, Grantsville, president; Glen Wise, Harris, vice-president; James Miley, Ottumwa, Iowa, secretary-treasurer; William Lewllyn, Novinger; corresponding secretary; Bob Maxfield, Glen Ridge, N. J., program chairman; Joseph Burnett, Buffalo, N. Y. conductor; Glen Moots, Brashear; Merle LaBeau, Kankakee, Ill.; Hollis Roberts, Novinger; James Clark, Ilpaso, Ill.; Vincent Strangio, Scarsdale, N. Y.; Dr. Mildred Gelbach, sponsor.

Ag Club President, Melvin Thompson; Vice-President, H. A. Kirk; Secretary and Treasurer, Byran Hoerrmann, Jr.; Sponsor, Prof. Norvell C. Allen. Pop! Hot dogs! Popcorn! started off the Ag Club with their first enterprise of the year operating a stand and a concession at the Adair County Harvest Festival. The annual barnwarming brought the crowning of Retha Hepworth . . . now it's a wonder more fellows don't belong to the club. Bales of hay, overalls, and plaid shirts, and all the cobwebs of a barn brought to the Women's Gym provided the setting. The Ag Club again brought in the huskies for a basketball team during the intramurals. Programs of interest to every future farmer were held for the members. Occasional parties brought entertainment and food, most important of all. By spring the club was pretty well disintegrated. President Thompson graduated, John Hoffman and H. A. Kirk were left in school. Junior Hoerrmann, Ralph Rice and Burrel Harris are serving on the farm. Johnny Kelso and George Street left the fall quarter and Uncle Sam called Clifford Cosby, Pearly Casady, Bob Duncan, Robert Gashwiler, Earl St. John, Max James, and Elmer Hatfield. (Page 35) (Page 36) (Page 37) Le Cercle Francais "La seance est ouverte" carries much meaning to the twenty French Club members meeting once a month to learn more about France, her language, people, and customs. Highlighting the year were the annual Christmas party, undampened even though taking place during a blackout, and the Valentine party, featuring Prof. J. L. Biggerstaff in a program on French music. Miss Nan E. Wade sponsors Le Cercle Francais and its officers are: President, Janice Timson; Vice-President, Margaret Richardson; Secretary-Treasurer, Isabel Weaver. German Club "Ubang macht den Meister" is the motto of every student in the German Club, for the purpose of this organization is practice in using the language. Through conversation, singing, and listening to records this purpose is being accomplished. Until Uncle Sam's call left gaps in their ranks, the club met twice monthly; in the spring quarter because of small numbers, meetings were suspended. Prof. J. W. Heyd sponsors the club. Its officers are: President, Roy Murphy; Vice-President, Ted Mallincrodt; Secretary-Treasurer, Marjorie Kanouse. Sigma Zeta Three lifeless goldfish were the unexpected result of an experiment at one meeting this past year. The unorthodox behavior of these innocent victims was brought about after they were frozen in liquid air and failed to revive in water afterwards. Synthetic rubber, betatrons, and cyclotrons were among the subjects discussed, the program theme being current scientific developments and problems. Roberta Wagner headed Sigma Zeta, assisted by James Sage, vice-president, and Caroline Kennedy, secretary-treasurer. Dr. Frank Verbrugge is the sponsor. Historical Society Vernon Brockman headed the historical society for the past year. Other members were: Vice-President, Mary Margaret Jones; Secretary-Treasurer, Marjorie Deierling; and Historian and Reporter, Karleen Forbis. This organization, sponsored by Prof. J. T. Angus, is primarily organized for students in the social science field. Book reviews, educational movies, and speakers on today's problems were among the programs given. The discussions by Miss Lucy Simmons' Latin American History class and Dr. Noah Richardson's geography class were two of the outstanding programs. (Page 38) Women's Athletic Association Jump on the W.A.A, merry-go-round and away we go . . . Activities are galore . . . fun is cornin'. Maybe there will be a stop at the cabin on the Chariton, or for more exercise, we don shoes, and here we go hiking! Getting back to town. . . Grab that volleyball and serve it over the net, for we're in the tournament. Some of us are a little rusty on our dance steps, so a class is organized, and away we step-together-step. When the air is nippier, a game of basketball is called and the officials know their stuff, for they have been to Columbia and have their ratings. Polly is strutting with that national and Ada with the intramural rating. It's time for the holidays and in keeping with the season, Santa comes to visit us in our own gym, so we have a big party for him. And then there's another party (not to mention a few weddings!) . . . That "Hick" affair calls for rummage of the worst kind, or what wouldn't sell earlier in the year . . .

(Page 45) (Page 46) A Cappella Choir The A Cappella Choir is a selective organization and singers become members by trying out in the fall term of each year. During the school year other singers are selected as needed. This year has proved a problem because of the many boys that have left for the different branches of the service. The Choir has given three performances this year. A program was given in the fall quarter in the assembly, the choir and band appeared together in a Christmas performance, and a group of numbers were sung at the memorial service for Dr. C. H. McClure. The Choir, under the leadership of Dr. Barrett Stout, has done some fine work this year. To be a member is one of the finest experiences that can come to a student. Baton Twirler Karl E. Thurman, world's champion baton twirler, is both student and faculty member in the Teachers College. As a student he is a music major and as a faculty member, for four years he has taught a course in drum majoring and baton twirling. He has appeared at football games during his four years on the campus. (Page 47) Band The College Band, directed by Prof. Karl Webb, started the year with a concert for the Northeast District Teachers Meeting. Our next program was on Armistice Day, when the band played for the assembly when the College Service Flag was dedicated. At Christmas time the choir and band gave a joint program of Christmas music. Other activities in which the band participated included a political rally, a farm conference and a basketball game. This year, eighteen men have been called into the armed services. In all, over seventy-five former band members are now serving their country, some of them playing in the bands of the Marine Corps, Army, and Navy. We are looking forward to the day when they all return and we can play "The Stars and Stripes Forever" with all its true significance.

Members: Wilda Lauer, Martha Rinehart, Betty Collop, Dolly Creamer, Jane Jarman, Maxine Mackie, Bette Morgan, Emma Jo Leslie. Three representatives from each of the four sororities, namely, the president, the vice-president, and one other representative selected by the sorority compose the Pan-Hellenic Council. Serving as a governing body, the council directs the combined activities of the sororities. An annual affair is the formal dinner planned by the council, at which the scholarship cup is awarded to the sorority having the highest record for the last three quarters. Instead of the regular spring dance that each sorority has had in the past, this year they combined and gave a Pan-Hellenic dance, thus saving for bond buying within each group. Inter-Fraternity Council Yes, it was a fine year. Held a rush season each quarter. Rush functions were extra special during winter quarter. Keen competition with things fairly even all year. High spot of season was "Costume Brawl" given by the council for student body. Fraternity decoration and everything. There were many changes in personnel. Dr. Hollenbach took Dr. Bray's place as sponsor. Each fraternity was represented by three faculty members. The boys on the council this year were: Phi Sigs, Quante and Struby; Sigma Taus, Schmid and Drennan. Ellen H. Richards Club The Ellen H. Richards Club chose this year to make a service flag with a star to represent each former Teachers College student in service. By working long hours on the flag the girls had it complete to dedicate on Armistice Day. It is to be kept up to date "for the duration." The officers for the club this year are: Elsie Kimbrell, president; Coralee Barnes, vice-president; Martha McDuffie, secretary; and Mildred Ann Cornwell, treasurer. (Page 49) (Page 50) Student Council This afternoon, 4:15? Swell, I'll go . . . yes, I'll bring my activity ticket." Yes, another all-school show sponsored by the Student Council. Open houses . . . well they couldn't be beat when the Council was in charge . . . Christmas dance was the high light of the year . . . you're right, the Council again. Class teas and all-school dances came directly from the Council Office. Due to the war and the number of students dropping out of school all the time, it was hard for the Council to plan entertainment on a large scale. This year the Council is helping the junior class finance the Junior-Senior Prom. In the spring quarter a big square dance was planned by the Council for students and faculty members. The members of the 1942-43 Council are: President, Lowell Gudka; vice-president, Gloria Jeanne Waters; secretary, Emma Jo Leslie; treasurer, Charles Schmid; Council-man-at-large, Ralph Jones; Council-woman-at-large, Irene Weger; Council-member-at-large, Betty Collop; senior councilman, Seaton Bonta; senior councilwoman, Bette Morgan; junior councilman, Harry Struby; junior councilwoman, Barbara May; sophomore councilman, Joe Ayers; sophomore councilwoman, Joan Nelson; freshman councilman.

Faculty and Administration (Page 53) (Page 54) President Ryle President Walter Harrington Ryle, the seventh president of the Teachers College, has brought to the school an enthusiasm and devotion to the problem of teacher training. This enthusiasm resulted from his experiences in undergraduate study here, graduate work in a teacher's training environment, and administrative service in public schools. With the belief that teachers should have an understanding and appreciation of the world in which they live and a fine command of techniques essential to others, President Ryle has attempted to conform to the ideals of the founder of the college. The President confers with the business manager and dictates to his secretary. The first lady and Walter Junior. The President studies in his office.

Wilma Yowell, Greencastle (Page 94) Football was voted out and Uncle Sam eliminated most of the basketball boys, but the Bulldog spirit refused to take it lying down. What remained of a basketball team was well attended with enthusiastic supporters. Next in order came intramural basketball, volleyball, paddle tennis and badminton with the interest thermometer hovering around the top till the end of the year. Sports (Page 95) (Page 96) Basketball The Bulldog basketball team started out with only one letterman but the best freshman material in several seasons. After winning four of the first six games, Uncle Sam stepped in for his cut of players and the rest of the season was not so good. We wound up the season with four won and four lost. The first game on the Osteopath home court was won by the Teachers College by one point. The return game, played at home, was a rough and tough game of survival of the fittest in which the Bulldogs proved their ability to take it. The final bell found a score of 57 to 31 in favor of the Teachers College. Nine teams were entered in intramural basketball. They put on a round-robin of 36 games that brought the house down. The Faculty and Orphans came out with seven games won and none lost each. The playoff was a sell-out with the Faculty showing the Orphans how it was done to the tune of 21 to 14.

Members of the staff during the year are: Ross Carnahan, Jackie Howerton, Gloria Jeanne Waters, Dean Funk, Carl Fisher, Vernon Frogge, Frances Hamm, Quentin Lewis, Leanna Moore, Martha Ruth, Marcia Sidwell, Fred Smith, Irene Brown, James Handley, Jane Hart, Loris Johnson, Marjorie Kanouse, H. E. Otway, Mildred Palmer, and Bette Morgan. The sponsor is Miss Agnes Slemons. The Echo The '43 Echo was really a problem child. What with a smaller enrollment, no football, fewer organizations and the smallest budget in many years we were hard pressed to find enough faces to fill that blank space between covers. Last but by no means least, our editor, Martha Rinehart, resigned in September to accept a teaching position. Jack Drennan carried on as both editor and business manager with Irene Brown as assistant editor and Lyle Burroughs as assistant business manager. Miss Agnes Slemons is sponsor of the Echo.
