Last year you and Brandy galloped through a whirlwind Echo that received a one-rating from Associated Collegiate Press. This year's promises to be more of the same! You may have missed the Air Corps "Sound off" this year, but there was still a champion football team to yell your lungs out for, a program of assemblies from the pre-election rally to Coach Wade and the Bulldogs, from the Preview of Progress to "Spies and Traitors," by Dr. Kurt Singer. Remember? Paul Strub's bandsmen (and not "boobs" as you called them last year) were decked out in color--new purple and white uniforms; Coach King's cagers snared second in M.I.A.A. play; and don't forget Miss Wells' opera, "The Mikado," or Homecoming, or our first Parents' Day, and sixteen-page football Index. And what about the student council elections, our own miniature version of last November's presidential campaign? So here you are, little Sir Echo, and you, too, Brandy. (But where's Bass?) You'll see everything inside from campus kings and queens to red-hot athletic shots, from clubs and councils to homey little snaps of everyday campus life. It's all yours, little Sir Echo, and as we said last year, "We hope the memories of this year will always come back to you just as sure as an ECHO ECHO ECHO echo (Page 5) Contents Administration Faculty Student Body Organizations Activities Athletics "OLD MISSOU" "Old Missou" and "Old Missouri," And thou our love hath won, Fondly cling you to the mem'ry. Of old "Missouri's Son." Gladly thee our hearts we tender By the dim and flickering light, Every lad a proud defender Of the Purple and the White. In debates or feats athletic, The broader field of life, Midst the shifting scenes of progress Where the fiercest fights are rife, Taught by many a glorious vict'ry From many a hard fought fight, They have learned they have to reckon With the Purple and the White.

Alpha Phi Sigma Alpha chapter of Alpha Phi Sigma, which is now twenty-three years old, meets bi-monthly. It is a national honorary organization. Membership in Alpha Phi Sigma includes high school valedictorians, salutatorians and college honor roll regulars. Educational programs, including movies and addresses, talks by foreign students, a square dance demonstration, all added much to the meetings. Activities this year included the annual float entry in the Homecoming parade and a banquet, at which President Ryle was guest speaker. A trip by several was made to Warrensburg for a banquet. Under the sponsorship of Dr. Hans Hagemann, Alpha Phi Sigma took in many new members this year. Top: Alpha Phi Sigma Homecoming float.

Alpha Phi Omega Last January these words came over KIRX and should have been a source of pride to every member of the Epsilon chapter of APO: "So far 122 people have registered to donate blood Wednesday and Thursday. Of these 122 donors, 85 were students of the Teachers College." APO eventually topped its 100-pint quota by 20 pints. With Adair county's total quota being 420 registrants, APO secured from the Teachers College better than one-fourth of the quota. Also a total of $35 was collected for the March of Dimes fund at the Springfield-Bulldog basketball game, besides sponsoring the APO Ugly Man's dance in April and the Homecoming game activities. Selling refreshments at student social events and running a checking booth at dances are other APO activities. Members for this service organization, who must have a Boy Scout background, were headed this year by John Millin, with Gale Jones, vice-president, and Henry Simpson, secretary, who was also appointed delegate to the national convention in Columbus, Ohio, December 28, 29, 30.

Blue Key College men who head the totem pole in leadership, scholarship, character, and activities, and who have a minimum sixty hours credit, are invited to Blue Key, an honorary service fraternity, with Dr. Richard Sullivan, sponsor. Publishing a student directory each quarter instead of just in the fall, was Blue Key's chief project this year. Planning and carrying out Homecoming fun (Remember those whitewash numerals on the streets? What back-bending!), ushering at social functions, conducting tours for Senior Day, and presenting the annual "I Am an American Day" assembly, make up a busy Blue Key year. President Jones reports on the national conclave, Denver. Colorado. Winter quarter initiation banquet.

They must also have 60 hours of college-credit to be eligible for membership. Selling Homecoming buttons, doing welfare work, ushering at college and civic functions, conducting tours on Senior Day, and sponsoring the traditional song fest held each summer are among their many activities. Membership in Cardinal Key is held to twenty members. Who's Who Seventeen Teachers College students were selected to be listed in the 1952-1953 directory of "Who's Who Among Students in American Universities and Colleges." Nominated by a campus committee, the "Who's Who" students are considered on the basis of excellence and sincerity in scholarship, leadership and participation in extra-curricular and academic activities, citizenship and service to the school and promise of future usefulness to society.

The first of the parties was a "Chinese Breakfast" at the home of Mrs. Joel Sever. The girls were dressed in "coolie clothes," carried fans, and each assumed a Chinese name. Each of the rushees was taken on a train trip at the second party---"A Railroad Party." Some of the towns visited were Suckerville, Peanut Center, Tumblerville, Fish Retreat, and Philemup, which was the refreshment table Favors of small animals were given the rushees at Animal Junction. Fourteen pledges went Pi Kappa Sigma way after the Rushing Season. "A Toast to the Team" was the Homecoming float of Pi Chapter and Joan Dean represented Pi Kappa Sigma among the royalty as the candidate for queen. A tea at the home of Pi Chapter's sponsor, Miss Willie Whitson, on December 19, gave the Pi Kaps a start in getting the Christmas spirit. Actives exchanged gifts with their "Little Sisters." In February the pledges staged a real shindig for the actives. A Valentine theme was carried out in this party which was held in the Presbyterian Church basement. Trump Night sparked with the Pi Kap skit, "Let's Change Places," and Dorothy Scott, who was the queen candidate. The visit of Pi Kappa Sigma national officers, Miss Virginia Langley and Mrs. Wilbur Long, in February, proved to be one of the memorable events of the year for Pi Chapter.

Student Council Activities of the Student Council, governing organization of the student body, are planned for the benefit of the students. Headed by Don Murphy, president, and sponsored by Dr. C. H. Allen, the busy council has brought many pleasant social events to the students. Highlighting the activities were the Homecoming Dance, featuring the music of Al Judd; the second Trump Night, with the King and Queen of Hearts, the sponsoring of Woody Herman and his "Third Herd" orchestra for the Annual Echo Spring Formal. Other activities included the Christmas Formal Dance with the music of Bill McCurdy and his 11-piece orchestra; open houses, and all school movies. President Murphy and Vice-president Burgener talking aver important business. (Page 93) Student Social Committee The college Student Social Committee is composed of members from the student body at large, who volunteer to serve in helping the Student Council in planning and executing activities for all school participation. Since the group is composed of only 20 members, three of whom must be Student Council members, the remaining 17 members are chosen from the list of volunteers by the Student Council and the Dean of Women. The faculty sponsor of the Student Social Committee is the Dean of Women, Miss Esther Brown. This group forms the nucleus of all decorating, program, and working committees in preparation for school functions. Members of the committee are: Joyce Kissner, ex-officio, Mac Howard, Janys Murphy, Jerry Burgener, chairman, Janet Delventhal, Janie Ronan, Fred Rock, Jo Balagna, Keith Stout, Norma McKinney, Roy Kearns, Betty Goad, Jerry Jones, Dave Strickler, Don Murphy, ex-officio, Richard Parcells, Charles Esterline, Pat Kelly, Jody Williams, Marilyn Simmons, Marilyn Peterson, Sevgi Bascavusoglu, and Harold Myers.

The band played at football games, basketball games, and in parades. Appearing at sixteen schools, the Teachers College Band went on its three-state yearly tour, March 2 to March 6, accompanied by the Nemo Singers. Forty-nine band members were fortunate enough to make this tour in the new band uniforms. Top: Clarinet Quartette: Shirley Leber. Katheryn Bagley, Velvadean Adkins, Marilyn Farris.

Director Paul Strub has developed a system of band awards to reward and encourage hard-working band members. Minor awards are given for each quarter of service, major awards of letters are given after three quarters work, gold bars for the letters for each year's work following. The Silver Key award, highest honor to be received, rewards three years of service in the band. The annual spring banquet ended the year's activities with the presentation of awards.

Nemo Singers The Nemo Singers, an a cappella choral group, furnished music and entertainment for the Teachers College students at concerts and programs throughout the year. Organized for the first time on the campus two years ago, the Nemos this year was composed of twenty-five members. Membership in the group is open for anyone who is interested in singing. The Nemo Singers traveled with the band on the annual spring tour in addition to accompanying the band to Moberly for a March of Dimes benefit show. They also gave a program for the District Rotary Club in November. Practice makes perfect.

Index Staff In its second year of streamlined typography, the Index hit the stands this year with its first 16-page football issue in history. Twelve-page issues for Homecoming, Christmas, and the 45th Anniversary edition, and a 16-page band issue highlighted the year's work. Returning for her twenty-second year as advisor, Miss Agnes Slemons guided the staff through the ins and outs of Index work, while H. Greene Simpson began his fifteenth year as printer. Russell Vannoy was elected editor for the fall, winter, and spring quarters, the first time since 1917 anyone had served three terms. Photography work was in the hands of professionals John Goeke and Kenneth Sykes, with Al Holzmeier and Pat Shelton hustling for ads. Carolyn Stokes' deft hands contributed many linoleums to page two. Bound volumes of the Index, clad in white covers, again found good sales. Editor Vannoy and Advisor Slemons gloat over their 16-page band issue.

Hugh Gardner, photographer; Russell Vannoy, feature writer; Neil Derrick, editor; Henry Greene Simpson, business manager; Dewayne Wellborn; Jim Houtchens, assistant business manager; Bob Schnucker, assistant photographer. The Echo King's crown was too big, the business managers lost a month's sleep over the budget, a host of group shots had to be retaken, and the printers kept crying, March 20, make it or else!" The Echo was fortunate in having back Kurt Ballard as sponsor, although due to his health, this will be his last year as sponsor. Mr. Ballard was especially helpful with his art work on the division pages. Henry Simpson, business manager, and his assistant, Jim Houtchens, put their hours earned in the business department to use in balancing (they hoped) the Echo budget. "Photograph by Gardner," was again a happy title for the Echo pictures. Hugh will be back next year for more professional photography, barring Uncle Samuel. Dewayne Wellborn was the editor's right-hand man throughout the year, while Russell Vannoy and Jeannette Krueger did the word-weaving, with Pat Shelton, typist. Final copy was taken to Jefferson City March 20, with the motto then being, "all over for another year." Kurt Ballard, sponsor Top: The business staff checks homecoming pages in the dummy.

(Page 101) Homecoming Queen MISS JEAN MOORE (Page 102) C'mon let's clap Dr. Ryle speaks at Homecoming Pep Rally. Homecoming Dry weather, just waiting for a fire to break out, was the setting for this year's Homecoming, Oct. 25, and prevented the traditional bonfire at Stokes Stadium. But a rousing-good pep rally, sponsored by the K-Club, a pretty queen, Jean Moore, perched on a yellow Cadillac convertible, and a wiggler of a snake dance around the square, made up for this slight loss. James Chevalier, dean of Moberly Junior College, was the principal speaker at the pep rally Friday night, with Rev. Herbert Manning, the witty master of ceremonies. Happy homecoming dance We're off for the big parade! First Place Float. Industrial Arts Club (Page 103) Long may it wave. Attendants: Joan Dean, Joyce Kissner, Mary Magers; Queen, Jean Moore, and Found Day luncheon speaker Dr. Marion E. Schott, Class '27. First movement, "Headcracker Suite." About 60 bands and floats sunned themselves on a warm Saturday morning in the Kirksville streets, while Dr. Marion Schott, '27, was guest speaker at the Founders Day luncheon, honoring the classes of 1902 and 1927. About 125 attended. Plowing their way through a dusty Stokes Stadium, the Dogs trampled Warrensburg 32-0 before a packed stadium in the afternoon. That night approximately 1,000 dancers had a night of it, with Al Judd's orchestra playing in Kirk Auditorium, climaxing Homecoming activities. And the score--Wow! Second Place Float, Phi Sigma Epsilon. Third Place Float, Alpha Sigma Alpha (Page 104) Scenes from "Blithe Spirit" and "Playboy of the Western World." Dramatics Three major productions were presented by the dramatics department through the College Players. "Blithe Spirit," the fall presentation, included a cast of Jan Hanley, Bette Sue Mullins, Peggy Cullen, Harmon Tucker, Jan Thomas, Janys Murphy, and Grace Joy Ferguson. It was directed by Jack Hensley and Sherod Collins. During the winter quarter an Irish play was presented. With Jack Hensley directing, "Playboy of the Western World" included a cast of Cecil Martin, Marlene Wetrich, Ron Bailey, Linda Heimer, Don Evans, Glenn Parsons, Bill Wharton, Bette Sue Mullins, Janys Murphy, Joan Dean, Marilie Schrock, Pearl Heart. Two one-act plays were presented in assemblies and at a night performance. "Magnificent Obsession" was the spring production, directed by Sherod Collins, who also directed "Upward and Onward," a melodrama given in assembly on March 25. Debate The two senior debaters, Bob Schnucker and Stanley Grimm, were representatives at the national Pi Kappa Delta meeting in Kalamazoo, Mich., in April. Tournaments which the debaters attended included Bradley University at Peoria, Ill., Midwest Speech Tournament at the Teachers College, Blizzard Tournament at William Jewell College, a practice debate at Principia College in Illinois, the state debate tournament at Warrensburg and a tournament at the State University of Iowa. Junior debaters were Hon Bailey and Jim Houtchens. Hob Schnucker, Stan Grimm.

Trump Night With two more king candidates than last year, a new faculty, and over a dozen student skits, this year's Trump Night was a tickle-filled sequel to last year's first attempt at this type of program. In an appropriately-titled skit, "The King of Her Heart," the Tri-Sigmas won the gold trophy and first prize. "Sam Shovel, Private Ear," a brainchild of Al Holzmeier and Henry Simpson, won second, while third place went to Alpha Sigma Alpha with, "Twentieth Century Showboat." Thirty faculty members, starring Dr. Edgar Goold, unveiled a teachers' dramatic attempt, It's in the Notes, depicting a supposedly typical classroom scene. Rev. Herbert E. Manning, as M. C., led the skits through a few difficult moments when the Alpha's robes got lost and once when flashlights were needed to read the scripts. First Place Skit: "King of Her Heart", Sigma Sigma Sigma.

Football Rolling up 213 points to their opponents' 61, the Bulldog gridders left their fans dizzy, starting with a 20-0 victory over Missouri Valley, the Vikings' first home loss in twelve years, and finished with a 52-19 trimming of Rolla, thus tying Maryville for the championship. The fatal game came Nov. 1, when a steamed-up Maryville eleven marred a perfect season for the Bulldogs, defeating them 28-27. Five shutout games were registered by the Dogs, including a 20-0 victory over Missouri V alley, 19-0 over, Western Illinois, 18-0 over Cape Girardeau, 26-0 over the University of Missouri "B" team, and a 32-0 trouncing of Warrensburg, the season's Homecoming tilt. A hard-fought October 4 contest at Springfield brought the Dogs a 19-14 triumph, leaving Coach Wade's 52-man squad with seven victories and a one-point loss. Thirty-three lettermen, one less than last year, received their awards in the February 4 assembly, with Dr. P. O. Selby as M. C. All fifty-two members of the co-champs were fed at the annual football banquet November 25, with Robert Burnes, sports editor of the St. Louis Globe-Democrat, as guest speaker. LaVerne Dabney was presented a gold watch by John Waldorf, commissioner of M.I.A.A., for having received the most votes in the sportsmanship competition. Dabney was also co-captain along with Darrel Fouch, and with Edward Bender, was named to the M.I.A.A, All-Star Team. Season's statistics showed Vernon Shotwell leading in rushing, Ed Bender in passing, Paul Johnson in pass receiving, Frank Melvin in punting, and Ray Mach in punts returned. In the publicity department, H. Greene Simpson was appointed Bulldog publicity director. Head Coach Maurice "Red" Wade Line Coach Kenny Gardner (Page 111) Maybe it isn't Alexander, but it's ragtime.

Scoring 1359 points to their opponents' 1306, the Tutors emerged with a 13-6 overall season's record, while winning seven and losing three in M.I.A.A. play. In the Midwest Tourney at Terre Haute, Ind., the Dogs were turned back 83-55 by a high-scoring Indiana Central quintet in the first round of play. The Dogs' biggest scoring spree came against Simpson, when they rolled up 92 points to the opposition's 65. Elected to the M.I.A.A. second team were Glen Cafer and Willard Sims. Sims, all-M.I.A.A. last year, missed a first-place berth by one vote. Men receiving letter awards were: Jack Beck, Glen Cafer, Delbert Crafton, Bill Hopkins, Don Maxey, Wesley Sanders, Elwood Sapp, Al Schif, Richard Sharp, Willard Sims, and Donald Sylvara. Glen Cafer also won special recognition from John Waldorf, M.I.A.A., in the competition for the sportsmanship award. Coaches Gardner and King say five more minutes.

Track The cinder track at Stokes Stadium saw forty-three men reporting to Coach Kenneth Gardner. Nine of these were lettermen, including Ronald Finders, Glendle Pickering, Frank Yeager, Mel Loncaric, Don Healey, Carl Mitten, Bob Fortner, and Don Sylvara. Although a snowy stadium hindered early practice sessions, eight meets were scheduled for the long-winded ones, two at home and two at Rolla, with one each at Columbia, Fayette, St. Louis, and Maryville. Intramurals After the players had become used to the name they played under, the Tap Room Five breezed through seven games in their own Purple League, and then defeated Mizzou Hall, winner of the White League, 53-27. Runnerups were the Squeegee Five and the Pickier Prunes, of the Purple and White Leagues, respectively. After three weeks of play, Henry Brandt was still pacing the scorers with a fifteen-point-per-game average. Other competing teams were: Phi Sig "A" and "B"; AKL Club; Ag Club; Dorm C; Sig Tau "A" and "B"; Baldheaded All-Stars; Rummy Kings; Outcasts; Campus Kids; and Kirksville Killers.

K Club Whenever you see a big white K walking down the street, with a purple jacket background, you抣l know its wearer is a member of the K-Club, open only to athletes who have earned their salt in Bulldog letter awards. Although Brandy, the bulldog mascot, took a back seat to Bass this year, it was the "K" Club who purchased and who was responsible for Brandy's well-being. Besides setting up "pause that refreshes" stands at athletic tilts, selling programs and ushering at all football and basketball games, and helping at track meets and the high school subregional tourney, the K-Club also supervised the Homecoming Pep Rally. Glenn Cafer served as president this year, with R. E. Valentine, sponsor. (Page 122) Circle, left to right: Vera Clark, Marie Dreher, Lois McReynolds, Mary Ann.

Women's Athletic Association Composed of more than twenty girls, many of whom are majors in physical education and recreation, the Women's Athletic Association is devoted to the development of sportsmanship and interest in athletics. Miss Martha Spath, head of the women's physical education department, is the sponsor. This year W.A.A, sponsored the women's intramural games in volleyball, basketball, tennis, and softball. Members assist in scheduling and refereeing games. The winning team of each tournament is awarded a trophy. A trophy is also awarded to the organization with the highest number of points for participation in intramurals. Letters are awarded on a point basis for participation in the recreational program.

(Page 124) It's Me, Brandy - just to say "So long" before I leave, and to tell how much I've enjoyed romping in and out the pages of your Echo. The ol' editor himself just asked me to thank some people and to add a few of my own canine comments to this page. Being a "man" of few words, I would like to start out by thanking our photographers who have made possible the variety of beautiful shots throughout the book. First, there was Mr. Glen Rider of Rider-Philpott Studio, Kansas City, and Mr. George Alexander of Alexander Studio, Kirksville, besides Mr. Kenneth Sykes and Mr. John Goeke of Sykes' Studio, Kirksville. Added to the excellent work done by these men was the ingenious photography of Hugh Gardner and Bob Schnucker, who supplied the photographs for the division pages and many of the group shots. We are also indebted to Mr. Ralph Kolb, manager of the college annual department of Burger-Baird Engraving Co., Kansas City, and to Mr. Fred Bassman, sales manager at Mid-State Printing Co., Jefferson City, who saw your Echo through an efficient job of engraving and printing, respectively. Thank you, and a hearty handshake also go to the campus organizations, faculty, President's Office, Dean's Office, Business Office, and Personnel Office, for giving us accurate and essential information, and in helping in every way in the production of your Echo. Everything has been said, I guess, that the editor wanted, except to give a very special "Thank you" to Mr. Kurt Ballard, our sponsor, who designed our division pages and cover, and who was "a helping hand" as sponsor at all times. Hope to see you in '54, provided Uncle Sam's K-9 corps doesn't catch up with me!
