PUBLICATIONS CONTROL BOARD
The Publications Control Board is a campus organization of a regula tory nature, in relation to all campus publications, such as the Prairie Smoke and the Slope Teacher. The Board reviews all prospective publi cations, with the view of admitting them as campus publications. The 1939-40 Control Board is unique in that it is composed entirely of student representatives from each of the four classes and one from Model High. The College Faculty are represented by two ex-officio mem bers, Professor Hiatt, group Adviser, and President Charles E. Scott. The Control Board, in formulating its constitution for this year, in serted these stipulations to have effect this year and as a suggestion for future years: 1. That the editor-in-chief of the Prairie Smoke and the Slope Teach er be selected from the senior class. 2. That the associate editors be selected from the junior class. 3. That the associate editors of the above mentioned publications automatically become editors-in-chief of their respective publications the following year, upon returning to school. If the first associate editor fails to return the second associate editor becomes editor-in-chief. Members of the Control Board for 1940: President, Pat Tobin, Sophomore Representative; Secretary, Llewellyn Evans, Senior Representative; Elmer Nelson, Junior Representative; Edward Fox, Freshman Representative; Hubert Knopik, Model High Representative; Editor-in-Chief of Prairie Smoke, Gordon Renke, ex-of ficio; Editor-in-Chief of Slope Teacher, Jack O’Brien, ex-officio.

ROBERT EMMETT SMITH
Inspired and Inspiring Teacher In the passing of Professor Robert E. Smith this College and the State of North Dakota have lost one who has served youth. He came to this College in the fall of 1927, after a rich experience as teacher and public school superintendent, to teach the subject he loved best to teach and in the teaching of which he was an artist. His has been the life of the true teacher, marked by unfaltering and unstinted devotion to the highest ideals of character development and citizenship training. That those who knew him most intimately and those whom he taught loved him is a finer tribute than words can formulate. “The Colonel”, as he was affectionately called by his associates, quietly and peacefully slipped through the door which separated him from us on Saturday morning, February 17—“Not like the quarry slave scourged to his dungeon, but soothed and sustained . . like one who wraps the drapery of his couch about him and lies down to pleasant dreams.” The State Teachers College, joined by a host of his former students, will long cherish the memory of Robert E. Smith, “The Colonel”, an in spired teacher, a loving father, a devoted husband, a valuable citizen. CHAS. E. SCOTT, President.

The motto of the League is “Loyalty, Purity, and Friendship” which is represented by the colors of Red, White and Blue. Every fall the League holds an initiation for new women students enrolled at the college. In the spring of the year it sponsors the Washington Tea and the Mothers’ and Daughters’ Banquet. Beside these main events the League performs many other duties as one of the largest and most active organization on the campus.

ART
CLUB
The Sketch Club was organized under the direc tion of Miss Zoe Beiler in the fall of 1932 for the purpose of furthering the development of free hand drawing among students displaying talent and interest in finer illustrative expression. The work is done directly from models and real set-ups as copy work is considered a “bad habit and poor a rt” and a distinct example of plagiarizing. Various mediums are used—water color, char coal, crayon, chalk, ink and pencil. The work of the club is a part of the Annual A rt Exhibit each spring. A large scrap book of student drawings from the club has been com piled and may be seen in the library. The officers this year were: Zita Tillquist, President; Margaret Fischer, Vice President; Boyd Bruvold, Secretary-Treasurer.

Several of the boys he coached have won individual championships and high honors, others are now out making names for themselves as coaches.

HIGH SCHOOL BASKETBALL COACH Under Elmer Beneke’s capable direction, the Model Hi Papooses underwent as successful a season as has ever been experienced by any other Model Hi Team. Much credit must be given to Mr. Beneke for his accomplishments in putting out a team of which we all can feel justly proud.
BASKETBALL SEASON 1939-40
The Papooses got off to a bad start but at last found their punch and closed a fairly successful season. Dropping four and winning nine of their scheduled games gives the Papooses a fairly good percentage in games won. Three of their earlier defeats were avenged. The Papooses winning four out of six conference starts entered the Missouri Slope Tournament as second place in the North Missouri Slope Con ference. Much praise and many thanks to Elmer Beneke, basket ball coach for the season, for his untiring efforts in putting forth a team of which Model High can be justly proud.

HOMECOMING
Homecoming activities were officially opened by an assembly program Tuesday, October 17. A warm fall day greeted the Alumni on Friday, October 20, which was the beginning of the main events of two days of festivities. The Alpha Psi Omega dinner was served at 5 :45 p.m. at Miss Matilda Stoxen’s apartment. At 7 :30 p.m. May Hall was the scene of activity. All the Savages now enrolled and many others of the Slope were gathered to witness the crown ing of Princess Doris Marklund and Chief Gordon Reinke in a very impres sive Indian ceremony. This was followed by the annual bonfire built by the Model High School boys. The Savage cheer leaders led the crowd in a few, yells and several songs. This POW-WOW was followed by a snake dance which began at the bonfire and continued down the streets of Dickinson. The activities of the day were brought to a close after the group had heard from the Chief and the Princess and several other Savages who spoke about the activities of the following day. Bright and early the next morning the sun began to shine and the weather seemed ideal for the remaining activities of Homecomnig. Phi Sigma Pi held their annual breakfast at the St. Charles Hotel at 8:00 a.m. which was followed by the Homecoming parade. The parade held this year was somewhat different in form than parades of previous years. The theme for the parade was “America’s Road to Culture”. The floats in their order were: Mr. and Mrs. Charles E. Scott, The Chief and Princess, Columbus Float, The Puri tans, The Liberty Bell, Signing of the Constitution, Freedom of Worship, The Inauguration af Washington, Lewis and Clark Expedition, Westward Expansion, Freedom of Press and Assembly, Lincoln, Americanization, North Dakota Golden Anniversary, Education, and The Statue of Liberty. The parade was followed by the Forum luncheon held at the St. Charles Hotel at 11:45 a.m. In the afternoon at 2 :00 p.m. the Savages were host to the Minot Beavers in a hard fought battle in which the Savages were victorious. In the combat the “Pigskin” was taken back and forth to no avail until the Beavers decided to kick. Warren Strom blocked the kick and Harold Bender, the Savage captain, carried the ball over the line for the only touchdown of the day. The score remained 6 to 0 throughout the rest of the game. The evening activities commenced with the Alumni banquet. It was served in the College Cafeteria at 6:30 p.m. To climax the two days of festivity the Homecoming dance began at 9:00 p.m. The gyms were appropriately decorated in a patriotic theme with a red, white and blue color scheme. The students and friends of the College danced in the Big Gym while the Alumni held their dance in the Little Gym.
WASHINGTON TEA
On February 17, a scene of 1776 was reproduced in South Hall’s re ception room decorated with spring flowers. Pretty costumed colonial maids assisted in the tea room when the women of the College paid tribute to Martha Washington, the wife of our first president, George Washington. From the hours of three to five o’clock, the Women’s League enter tained about 160 of their mothers, housemothers, and friends of the College at its annual Washington tea. Music for the afternoon was furnished by a string ensemble. In the receiving line were: Miss Leila Woods, Miss Zoe Beiler and Mrs. Elsie D. Miracle. The officers of the league, Frances Pierce, Muriel Mark lund, Evelyn Morland and Pauline Tinsley, alternated in the receiving line and at the tea table.
PHI SIGMA PI SPRING FORMAL
Among the social functions sponsored in any college, there are un doubtedly one or two that are outstanding to such a degree as to receive special recognition. To this class belongs the annual Phi Sigma Pi Spring Formal Dance, which was held for the second time this year. This year’s dance, an Inter-Fraternity Ball, was held in May Hall on Friday evening, March 29th, with the assistant sponsorship of Alpha Psi Omega. Approximately two hundred members, students and downtown guests danced to music by Eddie Fisher and His Orchestra amid the colorful theme and surroundings of a Japanese Flower Garden. Every detail, from the dancing programs and novelty singing of Miriam Miller’s College Co-ed quartet, to the lighted lanterns, the flowered fence, the Japanese paintings and the serving of punch, combined to make this event the outstanding dancing party of the 1939-40 year. Erling Nasset, general chairman, directed all arrangements, while in dividual committees were led by Elmer Beneke, Program and Entertain ment; Harold Hennings, Ticket Sales; Elmer Nelson, Invitations; Gordon Reinke, Publicity; and Maurice Young, Decorations.

Without the financial help of the business and professional men of Dickinson, this book, as it is, would have been an impossibility. So I take this opportunity to acknowledge my gratitude, as well as that of the entire student body, to the advertisers and to d urge all students, alumni, and , o faculty members to give these !dPQ firms their patronage.

CAMPUS NOTES Raid Chappell’s conception of “Rural Relations” is love in a haystack. According to Miss Rother, “dancing in a pig trough” is mushing. Did you know that according to one of our instructors that there is lead in a lead pencil ? Mr. Selke: “Are there any fish in the Missouri River near here?” Mr. Schoen: “Up near our home we have some fish that are five years old and can’t swim yet.” r

Is it a fact that the ten o’clock off day for classes was changed from Thursday to Friday to distribute the loafing hours more evenly? What happened to Ruth Cox in her search for the fountain of youth? Couldn’t she get “Young?” We wonder how it happened that Warren Strom became stranded on the third floor of South Hall ? How much better the “Whisker Club” would feel to the strong sex in the dead of winter than during Indian Summer. A man wrapped up in himself makes a very small package. Whether moonshine comes in beams or in bottles it goes to a man’s head. On the fourteenth of February the female is watching for her “mail”. March fourth is not a military command. On April first the usual number of saps will call up the zoo, ask for Mr. Lion and be told the “lines” busy. Also call the cemetery asking for Mr. Graves and hear an empty laugh. The big dipper probably skims cream for the milky way. Summer cannot jump into Winter without a Fall. The hen is immortal—her son will never set. When the sun flirts with the rain—it become a rainbeau.

“Who is the best looking boy in school and why am I?” asks Raid Chappell. Elmer N .: “What is the difference between being beautiful and being pretty?” Miss Hendrickson: “Well, you should know, Elmer.” “Laugh and the world laughs with you. Knock and you go it alone; For the cheerful grin will let you in Where the Knocker is never known.”

LAMENT When I came to school at eight o’clock, I was sleepy all morning, Now I come to school at one o’clock and I’m sleepy all afternoon. The printers get the money, The school gets the fame, The students get the yearbook, But the staff gets all the blame.

Richard Anderson said he knew of a person who died while doing the “jitterbug”. Another student knew of a girl who died while skipping rope. And then Bill Hintz says that there are those who die while sleeping in bed. So I guess we might just as well keep on dancing.
