The Forum, organized in 1925, promotes interest in debating and other form s of public address. Teams chosen from its membership compete each year with other teacher-training institutions belonging to the North DaÂ kota Forensic Association. The Dickinson State Teachers College from 1926 to 1933 has won twelve, tied one, and lost three, of the sixteen conÂ tests in which the institution has participated. In 1934 a tournament was instituted and our school tied, winning six debates and losing two. In 1935 our school won the tournam ent, winning four debates and losing two. This record excels that of any other member of the Forensic Association. Mrs. Robinson is the faculty adviser.

Reginald Reetz Adrian Nelson Myron McPherson Hollis W right For the first tim e in the history of college debate, Mrs. Robinson was faced with the task of building a team without any experienced material. From the twelve students who tried out for the team , Hollis W right and Adrian Nelson were selected for the affirm ative; Reginald Reetz and Myron McPherson for the negative; and Dorothy Wood and Genevieve Switzer for the girls’ team. In the tournam ent at Billings Polytechnic, they won one decision and lost two. The girls’ team took part in a no-decision debate. In the State Forensic League Tournament held in Dickinson, April 1st and 2nd, the debaters placed first with four wins and two losses. It is interesting to note that the affirm ative team was the only team upholding that side of the question to gain more than one decision. A t the close of the season the squad debated over KFYR at Bismarck and at the State Training School at Mandan. The question was: “Resolved: that the nations should agree to prevent the international shipm ent of arms and m unitions.” 1935 Thirty-nine

WASHINGTON TEA

The W omen’s League Annual W ashington Tea took place in the South Hall Reception Room from two to five o’clock, Saturday, February 23. It was a charm ing scene, lighted only by candlelight and with all the girls on the house com m ittees dressed in picturesque colonial costumes. Many m others from out of the city and from Dickinson were guests of honor, while housem others, faculty, and doctors’ and m inisters’ wives of the city were invited guests. In the reception line were Alice Mae Everett, Alice Young, Faye Woolery, Gladys Marquardt, and Dean Florence Somers, Adviser of the W omen’s League. Lighted tapers at each end of the table, surrounded by small bouquets of violets, made the table especially attractive. Presiding at the table from two to three o’clock were Norma Lee, president of the Women’s League, and Muriel Kjerstad. Helen Hilden and Lila Graham poured from three to four o’clock and Kathryn Syvertson and Ailene Bond from four to five. A background of m usic was provided by the College string ensemble.

MOTHER-DAUGHTER BANQUET

The tw elfth annual Mother and Daughter banquet was held at six o’clock Saturday, May 11, in the South Hall dining room, under the auspic es of the W omen’s League of the college. The dining room was decorated in pastel spring colors, with pink and green predominating, the M other’s Day m otif being accentuated by pink and white carnations on every table, and the whole scene lighted with pastel tapers. A fter the banquet, a novel program was presented. A fter three short speeches by Norma Lee, president of the W omen’s League, Mrs. W. F. Eckes, who responded on behalf of the m others, and Dean Florence E. Somers, who spoke briefly on “W omen’s Place in the World Today”, tables were cleared away so that a clear view m ight be obtained of the small stage on which was presented, against a dark blue background, a series of living pictures pertaining to motherhood. Music by the string orchestra, directed by Miss Catherine Burns, and colored flood lights added to the ef fectiveness of the tableaux. Magdaline Eckes was in charge of the program, with Mrs. Nell Robin son as adviser. 1935 Fifty

HIGH SCHOOL DEBATE This fall, for the first tim e in the history of this institution, a high school debate team was organized, under the direction of Professor Geo. W. Radimersky. W hen the call was made for debators over tw enty turned out, and from this number, eight— Velva Diede, Ruth Coffing, Freda Reich, Perry Bru vold, Marion Fedora, Glen Oderman, Martin Knopik, and Howard Butler were selected for the team s. The question for the year w as: “Resolved that the Federal Govern ment should adopt the policy of equalizing education opportunities in the form of annual grants to the public schools.” As four of the team graduated at the end of the winter quarter and none of the other four returned during the spring quarter, they only par ticipated in one conference debate, which they lost to Sentinel Butte. Mr. Radimersky has high hopes of producing a team which will carry high honors back to the Dickinson State Teachers College High School next year.

As it was found that one organization could not keep the interests of both the college and high school boys in mind, separate divisions of the Men’s Union were formed during the fall quarter. The High School boys’ division has been inactive, with the exception of one all school party, which it sponsored; but it hopes to furnish an assem bly program during this quarter. So far the separate organizations have proven highly satisfactory. A s tim e goes on it is planned to make the H igh School division more active in school events. Dean E. S. Hatch has helped a great deal in promoting a feeling of good will and fellowship among the boys by giving freely of his kind and tim ely advice.

A BIT OF COLLEGE HISTORY Twelve years of effort on the part of Dickinson and Missouri Slope people in the interest of the school reached fruition w ith the first occupancy of May Hall on March 29, 1924, and its official dedication on June 6 of the same year. In the course of that time, and the eleven years since, the Dickinson State Teachers College has grown from an idea to the fully ac credited four year college it is today. From the tim e of the first establishm ent of the Normal School in the Elks Building to the occupancy of the new $300,000 main building, the faculty had grown from six to tw enty. Today it numbers tw enty-seven; adm inistration and supervisors of affiliated grade and rural schools brings the total personnel up to fifty . A steady growth in curricula and standards also has taken place. From the first there have been included a four year high school and the standard curriculum, and since 1922 there has been the junior college de partm ent providing two years of regular academic work other than teach ing. The school was placed in the A classification by the American A sso ciation of Teachers Colleges and admitted to membership in the North Central Association of Teachers Colleges and Secondary Schools in 1928, w ith adm ission to the Intra-State Athletic Association being granted the same year. Much of the credit for the advances is due Dr. S. T. May, first presi dent of the college, and following his death April 12, 1929, upon the request of the faculty and students and with the approval of the State Board of Adm inistration, the building was named Samuel T. May hall in his honor. To succeed Dr. May, Dr. C. L. Kjerstad was appointed as president of the college. On January 6, 1931, the privilege of increasing the curriculum to in clude senior college courses and of granting Bachelor of A rts degrees in Education was provided for by an act of the State Board of Adm inistra tion. May Hall, standing three stories high w ith full basement, is attrac tively located on a small butte w est of Dickinson, its breadth is 250 feet and its depth, including the mammoth auditorium and gym nasium , which extend upward but two stories, is nearly 175 feet. Of brick construction, fireproof and equipped with the m ost scientific heating and ventilating system s, the structure is considered not only the largest but the finest single college building in the state. Save for six class rooms, the entire first floor is devoted to adm inis trative offices. The auditorium, opening off the main hall on the first floor, is 66 by 80 feet and has a seating capacity of nearly 1,200 on the main floor and in the balcony above. The 48 by 80 foot stage is also used as a gym nasium . '9 3 5

Sixty

The entire second floor is divided into class and recitation rooms, with several offices to be used by faculty members. On the third floor, addi tional class rooms and a large library and study hall with accommodations for 600 students are provided. Every room in the building is equipped with an electric clock, signal system , and therm ostats. Telephones in every room are operated through a private exchange located in the admin istrative offices. A cafeteria dining room and kitchen, equipped to serve several hun dred students, is located in the basement. This floor also houses the science departm ents, with class rooms and laboratories taking much of the space in front. The dom estic science department with its class rooms, sewing rooms, and kitchen is also located in the basement. Shower baths, lockers, and other gym equipment, with ample quarters for athletic departm ents, are located directly beneath the stage. A power plant, which will be completely renovated next year, supplies heat, light, and hot water for all the buildings on the campus.

FIELD SONG Oh, we will figh t, w e’ll figh t together For the honor of the grey and blue. Oh, w e’ll ram right in, W ith the good old vim, W e’ll take ’em, we’ll break ’em • Till we W in! W in! Win! Oh yes, w e’ll figh t, we’ll figh t together, Our loyal banners fly. So it’s F ight! F ight! Fight! Till we cross that stripe. Look out for the team— H i! H i! Music by Mrs. C. L. Woodward.

Words by T. A. Barnhart.

CAMPUS IMPROVEMENTS

This year the football team played its first game on the new athletic field. The cinder track was completed last year, and the large Slope track m eets will be held here. The tennis courts, which are being completed, will be among the best in the northwest. They have an excellent cinder base, and a clay surface which has been selected by a series of tests as being the best surface ob tainable. The backstops are made of rustless steel and are erected for permanence. These courts have been constructed at a cost of well over a thousand dollars, and are a distinct addition to the institution. The FER A workers have been doing landscaping to beautify the campus, which is ideally situated for such work. They have also con structed drives and walks east of May Hall. The state legislature has made appropriations for new equipment for the power plant, which will be installed next year.

JUNIOR-SENIOR BANQUET The Juniors entertained the graduating class and faculty guests at a banquet and prom June 5 at the K nights of Columbus Hall. This is the first year a prom has been given. Carrying out the them e of the Arabian N ights Entertainm ent, the hall was decorated beautifully in yellow and orange; oriental rugs and tapestr ies hung on the walls and screened the orchestra pit from the dance floor, and along the sides at intervals were pedestals bearing incense burners. The tables were arranged in the form of a diamond with a large gold Alad din lamp, lit within and with incense curling from its spout, in the center. Yellow and orange candles in gold and silver candelebra served as the cen terpieces. The favors were m iniature gold and silver Aladdin lamps. The same m otif was carried out in the place cards and programs. Immediately following the banquet there was a short program. W il liam Doering, president of the Junior class and toastm aster, welcomed the Senior class, and J. Henry Barneck, Senior class president, responded. The four rem aining speeches were centered around the theme, “The Desert Journey”, and included: “The Caravan”, Gwen Pelton; “Oasis”, Dr. C. L. K jerstad; “Sand storm s”, Ellen Grim es; “M irage”, Miss Nellie Swanson. A violin duet, “W here My Caravan Has Rested”, by Bernadine Lenhart and Alida Tanberg, and a vocal solo by Rolf Lee completed the pro gram. The prom, to which each Junior and Senior was privileged to bring a guest, began at 9:15. 1935 Sixty-two

SAVAGE FOOTBALL SEASON Before starting the conference schedule, the Savages journeyed to Spearfish, S. D., where they lost 37 to 0. The boys had very little practice before this gam e. Play was ragged and fum bling prevalent. Starting the conference schedule, the Savages played the Valley City Vikings to a scoreless tie. The Savages made several attem pts to score. Once a pass from Maule to Carney netted a first down on the five yard line, but a penalty of 15 yards for holding spoiled the chance for a touchdown. Several attem pts for field goals failed. In this gam e the Savages lost one of their m ost valuable men when Roy Foss, end, was injured. Playing host to Jam estown on Homecoming, the Savages lost the game 20 to 3. W ith m ost of last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s championship team back, the Jimmies swept the Savages off their feet during the first half in which they scored all of their points. In the last half the Savages defense tightened and held the Jim m ies scoreless. One try for a field goal was successful to give Dickinson its three points. Doering and C. Schmickrath were outstanding in this game. Led by Dunnell, flashy quarterback, Minot Beavers rode to victory over the Savages 20 to 0. Dunnell was easily the outstanding player of the game as he charged through the Savage line. Under the leadership of Dick Schmickrath, the Savages put up a gam e and determined fight. Recovering confidence, the Savages gained a victory over the B ottiÂ neau Foresters by a score of 19 to 6. The Foresters scored first by means Sixty-six

PRAIRIE S M O K E of a 60 yard pass early in the second quarter. Led by Larson and Pagenkopf, the Savages came back to tie the score at half tim e. In the final half, Dickinson plunged across for two more touchdowns. In spite of 170 yards of penalties the Savages defeated M ayville at Mayville, 19 to 12. Bill Doering scored the first touchdown for the Savages on an intercepted pass. The next two touchdowns were made by Baggenstoss on line plunges and end around plays. In this gam e the team display足 ed the best form of the season. They clicked especially well on offense. In the final gam e of the season the Savages defeated Ellendale 6 to 0. The score cam e as the result of a sleeper play. A sweep around end put the ball on the left side of the field. Peterson did not follow his team m ates but stayed on the right side. The next play was a long pass to Peterson who dashed across the line for the winning touchdown. Playing through足 out the gam e was ragged. The Savages were unable to convert many scor足 ing opportunities into touchdowns. Bill Doering, outstanding lineman, received a berth on the all confer足 ence team for his brilliant work at tackle. Dickinson players receiving honorable m ention w ere: Shj eflo, cen ter; C. Schmickrath, en d ; Pagenkopf, h a lf; and B aggenstoss, half. A t the close of the season, football letterm en elected Jelmer Shj eflo, center, from Killdeer, to head the 1935 squad. THE SEASON Savages Savages Savages Savages Savages Savages Savages Savages

In the first conference tilt, Dickinson lost an erratic gam e to the Ellendale Dusties 39-36. Larson led the Savage offence, contributing 13 points. Baggenstoss also showed up well. Playing a two gam e series with the W ahpeton W ildcats, the Savages broke even, losing the first gam e 28-27, and winning the second 37-34. In the first gam e B aggenstoss led, scoring w ith 9 points, and in the second Larson led with 13. Valley City used her superior height in defeating Dickinson both gam es of a two-gam e series, by scores of 56-24 and 50-32. Lacking the services of Bob Larson, stellar forward, the Savages lost to Mayville 40-21. In their next gam e, after leading nearly the entire period, the Savages went down before Minot 29-22. Dickinson was unable to score in the last 20 m inutes of play. A t Bottineau, the Foresters were again defeated 30-19, a small floor keeping the score down. The following evening the Savages lost a hard fought gam e to MayÂ ville, serious contender for the Conference lead, 30-29. F ighting up to the last second, the Savages had the outcome uncertain until the final gun. 1935 Seventy

On their second road trip, they lost three gam es in a row. The first night the D usties set them down 30-35, and on the next, Jam estown, con ference champions, defeated them by the lop-sided score of 52-18. In the third gam e the boys lost a good clean gam e to the Bismarck Phantom s, In dependent team led by the giant Ted M einhover, form er U niversity star, by the score of 42-26. A s a climax to the season, the Savages were host to the Bismarck Phantom s in a gam e played under the proposed new rules. Baskets were raised two feet and the center jump eliminated except at the beginning of the halves, which tended to speed up the game. The final score was 36-19 in favor of the Phantom s. O utstanding players for the season were Bob Larson, star forward from Miles City, and “B aggy” Baggenstoss, dim unitive guard from Dick inson. At the close of the season, basketball letterm en elected Bob Larson captain for the 1936 season.

COLLEGE BOXING Although boxing is not an inter-collegiate sport in this school, the men interested in that sport developed a fine team. Eldridge Beck, team manager, had his boys working upon the fundam entals of boxing. By the end of the season quite an improvement in techinque had been noted. The boys hope to be able to enter the North Dakota Golden Gloves tournament by next year. As a clim ax to the season, the team put on an exhibition at the D isÂ trict Basketball Tournament.

TUMBLING TEAM Tumbling is rapidly coming to the fore as a major sport in D.S.T.C., w ith more and more men participating each year. This season, under the direction of Jam es Saunders, student coach, the men interested in the sport developed a smooth, polished team which won great favor with its audiences. The team put on exhibitions at basketball gam es and at the D istrict Basketball Tournament, and also demonÂ strated its ability in an exhibition at Werner.

TRACK TEAM It is impossible, at the tim e the annual goes to press to give a complete report of the 1935 track season. A t this tim e two m eets have been held— the quintangular m eet at Jam estown on May 4, at which the Savages placed third, and the State Track Festival at Grand Forks May 16. Members of the team who scored points in the Jam estown m eet were: Sammie Robinson, second in the mile and 880; George Rusher, second in pole vault; Doering, second in discus; Ross, third in shot put; and Pagen kopf, third in 440. Other members of the squad m aking the trip but fail ing to place were B aggenstoss, Aichele, Kasberg, and Bach. Robinson and Doering were the only Dickinson men competing in the Grand Forks m eet, Doering qualifying in the javelin throw but failing to place, and Robinson winning the mile in 4:39, easily beating his nearest rival to the tape. He also placed third in the half mile. The only other m eet in which the Savages competed was the confer ence m eet at Valley City May 25.

THE SKY The moon is a palace, A silvery palace, And close by it glidingly goes A snow y white byway, It’s the Milky W ay highw ay That lazily, dream ily flows Thru an exquisite garden, A cool dewy garden, W ith star flowers row upon row. And there is a fountain, A cold bubbling fountain, W ith a cup on a hook nearby. The cup is the dipper, A silver-blue dipper, The hook is a brilliant star nigh. In the garden are m ountains, The somber cloud m ountains, W hich border this land called the Sky. —Bonnie Miller.

IN APPRECIATION The 1935 “Prairie Smoke” sta ff w ishes to express its appreciation to all those people— students, faculty members, and the business men of Dickinson— whose loyal support has made its publication possible. W e want to thank the studios for their splendid co operation, and to compliment Adolph Feiler on his ex cellent work in group photography. Especially do we wish to express our gratitude to every member on the sta ff of the “Dickinson P ress”, without whose co-operation and untiring effort on our behalf it would have been impossible to have published this annual in the short space of eighty-five days.
