Meeting Of Nebraska Councn Of Gllurehes Held On Campus A meeting of the Nebraska Council of Churches was held Monday, Sept. 20, at 8:00 p.m., in the Conferenee Room of the Student Center.

Those attending from the faculty were Dr. Neal s. Gomon, Dr. Keith L. Melviri, Dr. Galen Dodge, Dr. Wininger, F. H. Larson, and Miss Fried.a Rowoldt, and other organization sponsors.

Thos~ attending from the Peru clergy were Father Rm:old Birkle of St. Clara's parish; R~verend Robert Linder, Methodist minister; and Reverend Wilfred Carter, Christian minister.

Those representing the Auburn clergy were Reverend .Scht>ciler, Reverend Norman, and Reverend Jurgens, Lutheran $isters.

Others attending from out of town, were Pastor Alvin Peterson, Representative of the Nebraska Council of C~ches; Carol H. Lemon, of Liil'eoln, executive secretary of .the Nebraska Council of Churches;/and William 0. Haney, eh~ of the Departinent of Campus Ministry.

Three students from the college attended. They were Dennis Flattre, Midwest Region president of L.S.A.; LaVelle Hitzemann, vice president of the Peru L.S.A.; and Gary Newman, pres• ident of the Peru Wesley Fellowship.

The. meeting was held for the purpose of discussing a lack of . fadlities for the campus ministry on the Peru campus.

The meetings had in previous years, been held in the music hall, and last year they were held in the Campus School. The council decided the C a mp u s School would be adequate again this year.

There were suggestions made to have the ·six campus denominations have their meetings as one single body.

There was also discussion of a common chapel for all denominations. This ehapel would be used as a meeting place of discussion between the student and the minister of his choke.

It was concluded that a meeting next month of the various religious sponsors should be in order.

these people is getting smaller each year as more schools are requiring a minimum of the bachelors degree for beginning elementary teachers.

Off-campus classes are being held at Beatrice, Falls City and Plattsmouth with a total enrollment of 66. At least one more off-campus class will begin next week at another center. These students are not counted in the total of 1,041. Total Campus Laboratory S ch o o I enrollment is 289, up four students over a year ago. There are 109 students in senior high (9-12) compared to 118 in 1964-65; 48 in junior high (78), seven more than a year ago, and 132 in the elementary school (K•6), compared with 126 last year.

"Future growth of the college will depend in ability to house students," President Gomon said. "Our dormitories are above capacity a n d classroom space is at a premium. Opening of the Fine Arts Center later in the fall will provide some much-need-

ed additional classroom space but will fall short of present requirements and need in the immediate future. Nearly 200 would-be students were denied admission or were discouraged from attending Peru State this fall because of an acute housing shortage in college-operated facilities or the community.

"The housing problem will be no better next fall as the earliest additional dormitories could be made available, if approved; would be the summer or fall of 1967. The 1965 fall enrollment exceeded our most optimistic estimates by more than 100 students and with a backlog of another 200 failing to gain admission, another 300-bed dormitory would be filled as soon as its doors would open.

With no major classroom additions approved for the next two years, the college will be hard-pressed to meet the needs of the area until a major break-through in construction of added facilities is made."

Bus Stop Scene Of Peruvian Supplement Cash Payments The supplements to the 1965 For Students Homecoming Play' Peruvian were distributed last The cast for the annual Home- week. The 12 page addition to Now Available

coming play is in the second week of rehearsal on William Inge's Bus Stop. The play, originally a Broadway hit, was also made into a popular movie. The action takes place in a small town restaurant and the plot involves the lives of eight individuals brought there together by a storm.

Bus Sf op is a challenging scri:pt for actors and stage crew alike, but the director, Mr. Robert D. Moore, expressed high hopes for the success of the production.

The performance will be held at 7:30 p.m. on the evening of October 23, as a traditional part of the Homecoming celebration.

the annual completes a pidure record of the entire college year.

Spring sports, May Fete, the spring play, Open House, the Fine Arts Center Dedication, and Graduation were included in the final pages.

Any student not receiving a supplement should contact Mr. Stewart Linscheid or any member of the Peruvian staff. Copies are being mailed to the 1965 graduates and to those students who did not return to Peru this year.

Enrollment Of 1,041 Taxes Facilities; Housing And Classroom Space Short Peru State College has set an all-time enrollment record of 1,041 students for the first semester of the 1965-66 academic year, an increase of 20.2% over last year's 866, according to President Neal S. Gomon. Full-time enrollment has increased even more sharply from 723 a year ago to 943 this fall, up 30.4%.

Part-time enrollment dropped from 143 to 98.

The freshman class leads the way with 376 full-time students compared with 263 a year ago. There are 211 sophomores, 64 more t h a n last year; 164 juniors, two fewer than in 1964-65, and 188 seniors compared with 143 last year. The number of special students, four, is the same as a year ago.

Evening class enrollment dropped sharply from 143 to 98 due largely to a reduction in offerings as well as smaller demand. Most evening class students are elementary teachers in service in the area with less than a bache!or's degree. The number of

Peruvian Pictures Dates Oct. 12-13-14 Organization Pictures To Be Made Oct. 14 The Peruvian individual and organization pictures this year were again ·contracted with Bill Oliver of Delmar Studios. The schedule for these pictures will be: Tuesday andi Wednesday, Oct. 12 and 13 and Thursday morning, Oct. 14, individual pictures; Thursday after no o n , Oct. 14, organization pictures.

Since a yearbook represents a record of a person's school career, the Peruvian staff hopes all Peru students will strive to have their photographs taken· during these three days. Students are to be reminded that there is no finandal obligation for the s e pictures.

Nebraska Poet Laureate To Appear In Convo Dr. John G. Neihardt internationally known American epic and lyric poet and poet laureate of Nebraska, will present a reading from his works at P e r u , Nebr., at 9:10 a.m., October 27, 1965 in the college auditorium.

Dr. Neihardt's appearanee will be sponsored by the convocation committee.

Currently Dr. Neihardt is lecturer in English and poet in residence at the University of Missouri, Columbia; he has held that position since February, 1949.

The program by Dr. Neihardt in Poetic Values is one of a series he is presenting throughout Ne bra ska over a tour of the state that is a reenactment of a personal appearance series he presented 40 years ago. At that time he made a "laureate tour" of the state which so many years was his home, appearing at most of Nebraska's universities and colleges, and before many civie and other organizations. Recently it was suggested that the tour be repeated in the light of his extensive accomplishments· in the field of literature and the widespread recognition as one of the country's leading poets during the intervening years. The recognition has induded his success as a lecturer and reader of poetry.

Although born in Sharpsburg, Ill., 84 years ago, Dr. Neihardt is a son of Nebraska by adoption.

With his family he moved to Nebraska when he was ten years old; he received his higher education at Nebraska Normal College, where he completed his studies in 1897. For many years he made his home at Bancroft.

It was while a resident of Nebraska that he wrote all except two of his lyric poems, all hi s short stories, and two of his great epic poems in the "Cycle of the West."

The Nebraska State Legislature in 1921 made Dr. Neihardt poet laureate of Nebraska. He holds an honorary degree from the University of Nebraska, where he was professor of poetry in 1923, and another from Creighton University, as well as one from the University of Missouri.

COLLEGE AND CITIZENS ARE GRATEFUL TO SENATOR HUGHES Peru State College and the citizens of Peru community are grateful to Senator Calista Cooper Hughes for her continuing effort . for passage of Resolution 73. Official notice was received from Hugo F. Srb, clerk of the legislature, that Resolution 73, introduced by Senator Hughes, First district, was passed by the Nebraska Legislature. The Resolution stated, "Be it resolved . . . (1) That Peru State College be exempt from the provisions of Legislative Resolution 44, and continue operation of its elementary and secondary school. (2) That the facility may be used so long as it is necessary for the operation of Peru State College."

The original resolution, which called for closing campus schools at the University of Nebraska and Peru State Col~ lege, was apparently based on opinion that all cost of operation came from state funds; and thus the state was completely subsidizing the education of the students attending these schools.

Upon further examinations of the facts, it was revealed that the state portion is very small at Peru State. The college contracts with the local elementary district for the education of children grades kindergarten through eight, and the college receives tuition for all high school students (912) from the county free high school tuition fund. These sources produce nearly 85% of the cost of operation of the campus school.

Senator Hughes was the only senator who voted in opposition to Resolution 44 which would have closed P e r u State's campus school by 1968. Only through strenuous efforts on her part, which included p e r s o n a l consultation with every senator, was Resolution 73 passed.

ELIZA MORGAN HALL

BY MARY ANN SHARP

The traditional structure remains the same spite new additions and occasional repairs. The portico still reads Eliza Morgan Hall. But generations have decorated its rooms, slept, studied, and relaxed within. With the start of this new year, a new collection has formed. The purpose of this column is to acquaint the reader with these residents of Morgan Hall and with the events taking place.

But, it should also help to inform them about each other.

There are two hundred girls in the dorm this year, which is a sizeable increase over the previous term. The number of n e w freshmen almost equals the total of the other three classes combined. No longer do they hide in corners and bark at every command. It's practically the opposite.

That gave just two weeks for the upperclassmen to be generals. Dorm rules were decreed and energetically enforced with the hope that they wouldn't be slighted as the newness wore off.

As initiators, however, the job was largely left to outside forces and the goober juice events.

Little activity has taken place other than this, except for wing division meetings and one large "tea party" get-together. The screams and awes that have been heard are not from torture or

complete disillusionment. They are the reactions to announcements of engagement that I am sure Morgan Hall has been hearing for years.

Mary Sautter has just included a Peru graduate, Mr. Charlie Caverzagie, into her June plans.

He is teaching world history on the sophomore level in Plattsmouth, Nebraska. Mary will graduate this spring.

Pat Knippelmier and J o e Smith have set no special date as yet, which leaves more time for concentration on his graduation in June. His major is in the field of chemistry. Pat i&.<1 junior majoring in elementary education,.

As a home economics major, Barb Aylsworth will be taking many courses to her advantage.

She is engaged to Erik Foged who is a history major and an upperclassman to this beginning freshman.

Another on the taken list is Myra Murren who is a major in elementary education. She has announced her engagement to Mr. Dave Wickham of Salem, Nebraska. Dave attended Peru two years ago, but did not return this fall. Myra plans h e r graduation this June along with the scheduled June wedding.

By doing some roving reporter investigating, I have found: that the activities covered a wide range over the summer. Some of these girls discovered they had hidden talents. Mary Gonnerman

She said it was interesting and educational and that so were the rangers. She acquired a good talent for hitch-hiking, but she commented, "The bears always caused more attention than we did."

An educational experience from many aspects was that of Janice Johnson who worked for the mental institution in Glenwood, Iowa. Carol Chandler and Nancy Muse both served as coun. sellors for a Girl Scout Camp outside Denver known as Tomahawk 'Ranch. Kris Wewel served: as a governess and tutor for a family in Colorado.

I believe the most. memorable summer, however, would be that of Ann Epley, who traveled to Europe. Her father is stationed in Germany with the U. S. Army.

If an enlisted man has children under the age of twenty-three and in college, they are entitled to one free trip a year to where their parents are stationed. Ann joined her family in Germany and: then traveled throughout the Scandinavian countries. She returned only two weeks before this term was to begin.

DELZELL HALL

BY BILL BOWEN

With the beginning of the Fall semester Delzell Hall is back to its bustling self again. There are currently 158 residents in "Ye Olde Castle." There are still some rooms with three people in them, but on the whole the situation has improved considerably over last year.

There are two of our residents in the hospital undergoing treatment for leg injuries. Dick Estes and Dom La Rocca are both in Lincoln hospitals.

There are some very undesirable differences in the dormitory this year, and: among the foremost is the new paper cup pop dispenser. I realize that the lack of pop bottles is a great relief to the janitors, but the new method of dispensing pop leaves much to be desired. About half of the time the machine doesn't work, and when it bothers to react to the insertion of a dime, one can never be sure that the machine will dispense in the' proper sequence. It is very unfunny when to see the ice fall, followed by the pop, finally followed by the paper cup. Unhappily, this particular order of events occurs quite regularly. Perhaps suggesting that the old way of dispensing pop be used again sounds suspiciously conservative. However, let's be reasonable and put back the machines that gave us ten cents worth of pop for our dimes.

The dormitory has a new system of dorm meetings this year.

Starting this semester each wing will hold meetings every two weeks. This new method will bring about closer coordination between the dorm residents and their ,counsellors. In this way, complaints, questions and assistance will be considerably easier to handle.

Delzell also has a new housemother this semester, Mrs. Longfellow. She helped out a great

The new west wing, which is being used for the first time this year, is very modern and comfortable. Conveniences are carpeting through the hall, fluorescent lights in all rooms, plenty of space for books and clothes, and a general modern atmosphere in the whole wing.

"PRESCRIPTIONS A SPECIALTY"

Bobcats Play Well At Maryville, Missouri ··But Lose 28-18 Ervin Pitts, Peru State College football coach, looked out h i s office window Monday morning as heavy rain washed the Peru State campus. "Not much different than last Saturday night," Pitts said. "Only then it rained Northwest Missouri State passes," he said as he mused over Northwest Missouri's 28 to- 18 victory over his Bobcats at Maryville, Mo. "Poor pass defense beat us," the Peru State mentor said. However, he continued with praise for most other aspects of the Bobcat football picture. "Our rushing and passing game was much better than against Lincoln University, and: in general our defense against Northwest Missouri's rushing game was adequate," Pitts said.

Northwest Missouri's Leo Pappas riddled the Peru State pass defense with nine completions in 17 attempts for 174 yards and one touchdown. It was Pappas' passing which rocked Peru State on her heels in the late stages of the second quarter and throughout the third canto when the Bearcats tallied 21 points to earn their third straight victory over Peru State.

Concerning the Peru State game, Coach Pitts was elated over the showing of freshman quarterback Carl Satterfield, Chicago. The Windy City smoothie replaced Harry Leth, Rocky River, Ohio, late in the first quarter and paced the Bobcat offense the rest of the way. Satterfield, running the pass-run option as if he invented: it, completed 11 of 21 aerials for 133 yards and three Peru State touchdowns. The 5'11", 160 lb. quarterback also contributed 67 yards net rushing in 11 carries to dominate t h a t portion of Bobcat offensive statistiCs. Leading 7-6 with one minute remaining in the first half, Northwest Missouri broke Peru's back by driving 58 yards to score only four seconds before the intermission. The Bearcats took over on their own 42 following a punt by Peru's Bill Wit-

ty, Syracuse. Northwest's Pappas arched a rainbow pass to Bob Albanese who raced to the Peru 2-0 before being pushed out of bounds. Freshman Mike Crank boomed to the Bobcat 8-yard line; another Pappas to Albanese pass moved the ball to the one, and Mike Crank crashed in on the next play.

Pappas kicked the second of his four successful conversions and Northwest Missouri breathed easier with a 14-6 halftime margin.

The Bearcats had bro ken ahead late in the first quarter when Crank scurried 26 yards to score. Peru's Phil Malone, Plattsburg, Mo., blocked Pappas' first extra-point kick, but an infraction of the rules by Peru gave Pappas a successful second attempt.

Peru, with Satterfield at the helm, came back to take the following kickoff and drive 61 yards in 12 plays to score. An eightyard pass from Satterfield, as he was being knocked off his feet, to fullback Roy Windhorst, Deshler fullback, counted the Peru touchdown. Windhorst out-fought two green-shirted defenders to make a spectacular grab.

On the extra point kick attempt, Northwest's Bob Leach blocked Windhorst's boot.

Northwest Missouri recovered a Peru State fumble on the Bobcat 11-yard line midway in the third quarter to set up their third touchdown. Halfback Joe Spinello scored on a 9-yard run with 8:28 remaining in the third quarter.

Northwest's final tally came on a 12-yard touchdown toss from Pappas to end Leon Muff five minutes later.

Down 28 to 6 going into the fourth quarter, Peru capitalized on a Northwest Missouri fumble and an 85-yard drive to narrow the gap with two touchdown~e­ fore the final gun.

End Ron Yates, sophomore from Granite City, Ill., recovered a Northwest fumble on the Bearcat 33. Four plays later Satterfield tossed a 12-yard scoring pass to end Jim Manning, Lacombe, La., with 7:43 showing on the fourth quarter clock. Satterfield tried to run the extra point but failed.

Peru's final touchdown came at the end of an 85-yard sustained drive on a 9-yard touchdown pass to Curt Holliman, Rockford, Ill. Again Satterfield was dumped on the extra point attempt.

Satterfield's three touchdown tosses were the most in a single game for Peru State since September of 1960 when P e r u bombed St. Mary's of the Plains 46-0. In that game Dick Place tossed one and John Christensen completed a pair of TD aerials.

Intra murals To Include Five Sports This Season The intramural program at Peru State College will soon be in full swing again. Football, volleyball, basketball, track, and soft ball are the sports to be played.

Individual team championship for each sport will be recognized.

The top teams in each sport will receive ten points and the second place team will receive nine points. At the end of the season, the over-all intramural champion will be determined by the total team points.

The respective team coaches are encouraged to emphasize sportsmanship at all times.

SPORTS COLUMN

BY DICK BERTHOLD Working primarily from the Split T and Wing T, the Peru Bobcats are hoping to improve their two and seven record of 1964. Last year the Bobcats lost seven tilts by an average of 31.7 points, per game, while the two victories were by -an average of 12.5 points. Coach Pitts commented, "We are improving every week and will continue to; there are many freshmen and sophomores playing who will learn as the season progresses."

Coach Pitts has 19 returning lettermen to bolster the Bobcats this season. The Bobcats appear strong at the end position with lettermen Jim Manning (2), Tim Logsdon (1), Al Sullivan (2), Vince Sabatinelli (2), and Ron Yates (1). Dom La Rocca (1), Bobcat end prospect, was sidelined last week with a knee injury. Floya Goff (3) and Les Raine (1) have returned at the tackle positions. At guard, Bernie Brown (1) should head the position with Phil Malone (1) and: Bob Urwin (1) ready for action. Bill Witty (3), supporting an extra 35 pounds, has switched from quarterback to center to help fill the gap. -Roy Windhorst (3) returned to handle most of the offensive fullback chores.

Curtis Holliman (1), George Evangelist (1), and Pete Campo (1) are fleeting the halfback positions. Sam Sadich (2) and Lowell Brown (1) have returned after last year's defensive work.

Harry Leth (1) came on strong last season to earn the starting position in the final games.

Some of the outstanding newcomers to the Bobcat gridiron camp this year are: John Gilmore, Carl Satterfield, Jim Hagemeier, Bill Everhart, John Creamer, Arnold Johnston, John Mizerski, Nick Petrillo, Ralph and Robert Stekowsai, and Lee Dunekacke.

Carl Satterfield has begun to prove his potential at the quarterback position and is one of the best hopes for this year's signal caller. Satterfield, a graduate of Chicago's Roosevelt high school, was selected on the first team of the Chicago Red-Division All-Star team, All-Conference, team's most valuable player, and honorable mention of the Illinois All-State team.

The Bobcats suffered a 7-6 setback from the hands of Tarkio September. 11 for the opening game. Coach Pitts described the game as a defensive duel where Holliman skipped to paydirt for six points. The Owls picked up their extra point after connecting to win by a single point.

Cross Country Boys To Cross The Nation -On Paper, That Is Peru State College cross country runners loped through central Illinois Friday night on an "on-paper" trip which is taking them from New York City to Los Angeles and from Seattle to Jacksonville, Fla., by the end of the 1965 cross country season.

James W. Pilkington, Peru State cross country coach, theorizes that it is much easier to run if you have some place to go, so he dreamed up the "Across the Nation Marathon" training gimmick for his Bobcat harriers. By the end of the season, the Peru State squad will have run enough total miles to have traveled the 5,643 miles necessary to crisscross the nation twice.

The Marathon works this way.

At the end of each day's running, whether it be a meet or practice, the Peru State squad troops into Coa·ch Pilkington's office to record individually the number of miles each !}as run that day. At the end of each week Pilkington totals the number of miles logged and plots the total on a map in his office.

Following last Friday's workouts, the Peru runners had logged nearly 920 miles in total, enough to bring them past Ottawa, Ill. The pseudo trip started September 12. At the end of the season, f o r further incentive, a trophy will be awarded to the individual who has run the most miles during the season.

Pilkington says the idea came to him this summer when he was running off a little excess steam around the Peru State track. He felt like he wasn't getting anywhere as he ·circled the Peru cinder track, and he assumed h i s runners often felt the same frustration. Hence, the "Across the Nation Marathon" was born on the Peru State oval.

Asked why his runners were going to Seattle as the place from where they would: start the run back east to Jacksonville, Pilkington quipped: "Well, I decided if they ran all the way to Los Angeles, I'd reward them with a jet plane trip to Seattle."

When the Peru State runners end their season's "journey," the 16 participating Bobcats w i 11 have averaged 352 miles per man.

The way the Bobcats have per-

Coach Pitts stressed that the Bobcats' pass defense was th e weakest point at this time, and their passing offense was steadily improving.

Peru Harriers Down Lincoln U. Peru State's cross-country team sloshed through rain and a muddy three-mile cross-country course at Peru to defeat Lincoln University of Jefferson City, Mo., 18 to 43 in Peru's opening meet of 1965.

Coach Jim Pilkington's Bobcats slammed runners across in the first three positions and then followed with runners in 5th and 7th positions.

Louis Fritz, Verdon senior, captured the meet victory with a time of 16:27, closely followed by teammate Jim Hendricks, Omaha sophomore, who clocked 16:28.

Fritz holds the three-mile Peru State record of 16:06 which he set last year.

Peru's Jim Watson, Red Cloud sophomore, notched 3rd place (16:56) to complete the leading Peru State trio. Dan Trout, freshman from Lewiston, placed 5th (17:20) and Jim O'Donoghue, Worcester, Mass., placed 7th (17:46).

Peru Drops Opener 7-6 "Tarkio College played well and :deserved to win," C. o a c h Pitts said: following Tarkio's hard fought 7 to 6 victory.

"We had our chance to win it, and we muffed it," Pitts said.

The Peru mentor referred to the early fourth quarter drive_ \Vhich was stalled on the fiv:e.

Tarkio took 'the opening kickoff and drove 55 yards to score.

The extra point provided the difference.

Peru came back in the second quarter to score on one of the season's most bizarre plays. Satterfield fired a lateral pass in the flat which Holliman dropped.

When no whistle sounded to end the play, Holliman scooped up the ball and scampered 48 yards to score before the Tarkio. defense woke up. The extra point failed and Peru was down 7 to 6.

Bobcat Hatfier

Peru State Bobcat harrier· Lou Fritz spent the s.ummer v<1cation in an unusual manner.. While most of us were working:hard at jobs, Lou was running anywhere from two to 26 .miles in crosscountry events. While many of us wouldn't envy Lou, the rewards of his.ability to run were beneficial to him as a Bobcat harrier.

Lou ran in the Tenth Annual Pike's Peak Marathon in Colorado during August. He finlshed eighth out of a field of sixty competitors. The race was 26 miles and 385 yards, taking the time of 4:58.0 to get to the top and back.

Labor Day, Lou was able to capture seventh in a field of 38 over a 26 mile course. A 24-inch trophy was his reward for this Heart of America Marathon held at Columbia, Missouri.

Lou's other outing was at Elmwood Park in Omaha. He finished fourth over a 4-mile course. Jim Hendricks, Lou's fellow teammate at Peru, was able to cap• ture second, and both Bobcat harriers received trophies for their fine efforts·.

Lou's story of success is not an unusual one. A 4.43 fifth place state mile finisher from DawsonVerdon, Lou was not particularly tough as a freshman and sophomore. Between his sophomore and junior years at Peru State, he was determined to become the finest Peru distance runner in the school's history.

Lou holds the. Bo.beat mile and three mile records and Pe r u State cross-country records at distances from 2.5 miles to 26 miles 385 yards.

Lou's practice schedule is a vigorous one. He averages eight to 10 miles of running a day through the year regardless"" of weather conditions and temperature.

···Paced by Louis Fritz's recordbteaking performance, Peru State College handed visiting Northwest Missouri State College a 1549 cross country defeat he re , Tuesday.

Fritz, Peru's veteran distance ace from Verdon,. gunned the three-mile Peru State course in 15:56 to break his own record of 16:07 set on Oct. 13, 1964, against Tarkio (Mo.) College. Tim Hendrkks; Omaha sophomore, had a glittering ..performance overshadowed by Fritz. Hendricks a ls o eclipsed the old record by finishing second in 16:01.

In all, Peru State copped the first five places in the dual meet.

Jim Watson, Red Cloud sophomore, ran third! in 16:42; Jim O'Donoghue, Worcester, Mass., junior, took fourth with a 16:56 clocking; and Dan Trout, freshman from Crab Orchard and a graduate of Lewiston high school, orounded out the Peru point-getters with a 17 :01 fifth place time.

Norman Johnson led the Northwest Missouri Bearcats with a seventh place finish at 17 :20.

Rounding out the Missourian's scoring were: Junior Utt, 9th, 18:02; Roger Stucki, 10th, 18:50; Cary Castle, 11th, 18:55; Dan Reed, 12th, 19:14.

The win was Peru State's second of the season. Coach JimPilkington's Bobcats defeated Lincoln University of Jefferson City, Mo., 18 to 43 on Sept. 18. ' Peru's harriers will do battle next on 'I'.uesd:ay, Oct. 5, when Tarkio College and William Jewell invade for a triangular.

the way his Bobcats had battled the Lincoln Tigers. "We played as well as we could," he said, "and I can't ask any more from our team than that. Our kids played much better than in our opening loss to Tarkio College,'' Pitts said. "I was especially pleased with the work of our defensive unit," he added.

The Bobcats held Lincoln University to 145 yards rushing and 48 yards passing. Coach Pitts was disappointed in Peru's offense as they could only muster 10 yards rushing and 47 yards passing.

The Bobcats threatened midway through the second quarter after Floyd Goff recovered a Tiger fumble on the nine. Two running plays and two incompleted passes later found the Bobcat drive ended on the three.

Parliament Member Convocation Speaker Honorable Ivor Richard, member of the British Parliament, was guest speaker at the all college convocation, Wednesday, September 29, at 9:10 a.m. in the college auditorium.

Mr. Richard represents the Baron's Court. He is a barristerat-law, as well as a member of parliament.

He appeared for one of the defendant~ in the "Great Train Robbery" trial which commanded international attention several months ago. Mr. Richard stated the man was now serving a five year prison term.

Mr. Richard talked of the present political situation in Britain.

As a member of the ruling Labor party he had much to say about the House of Commons, which meets at Westminster Abby.

Among other topics under discussion were Viet Nam, and Red China's possible admittance to the United Nations.

After concluding his speech Mr. Richard held a short buzz session at which students and the faculty could question him.

Off And Running .Classes have begun once more at Peru State College, the beginning of a brand new year, and many students are already discovered burning the midnight oil. Studying??? We hope so!

If the parents of these students could observe the behavior of their offspring in the dormitories after 10:30 p.m., they would certainly be wondering where they went wrong. It isn't all that bad though. Maybe it's just that college is a novelty for many of these young people, and they want to. see what it's like to be "on their own." Nevertheless, it's hardly unusual to get ready for bed and discover cheese •cracker crumbs between the sheets. How many parents would allow pranks such as this in the home? An d now that Morgan Hall has traded the old pop machine in on a newer model, the bottles have been eliminated, thus also eliminating the clamor of rumbling bottles in the broom closets.

What a relief!!!

Freshman Initiation is one of the principal causes for the commotion taking place in the dorms.

"Freshman, 1button!" or "Carry my books!" or "Freshman, sing the color song!" are probably the most common phrases employed by upperclassmen during the first two weeks of school, but it's all taken in good humor, supposedly. The best time to get your room cleaned free of charge in Eliza Morgan Hall is, without a doubt, during Freshman -Initiation. However, once in a great while, one might encounter a freshman who absolutely refuses to cooperate; he'll soon wish he had. ·Then, of course, everyone wants to know who got engaged last summer, who got married, who's going with whom, who broke up with whom, what floor everybody else lives on, what classes everyone has, and other numerous vital statistics. Naturally, you'll have to get ,that alarm clock fixed for those 7:30 classes; you wouldn't want to miss one of those little goodies.

What a race!!!

However, never fear, fellow students! Christmas vacation will roll around before you know it, then Easter vacation, and finally summer vacation. But we're here to learn, to fill our weary minds with an infinite abundance of knowledge, anq, in order to learn, we MUST study.

Untotal Look Is Fall Fashion Preview Why were some students glad it rained Monday, September 27?

Could it be because of freshman illitiation?

The damp weather must have affected the eyesight of over 300 students, or else they were trying to start a new fashion trend, the "untotal" look.

The girls seemed to be having their ups and downs. Their world rose and fell with each step they took. Maybelline and Hazel Bishop were not allowed to participate in the festivities. As for hair styles, pigtails made a comeback.

Some were worn proudly-one girl had hers done up with blue yarn-while others,. not quite so sure of themselves, had theirs hidden under beanies. P 1aid skirts and polka-dot blouses fought for recognition.

The boys were equally welldressed. Ties and tails were the order of the day. When a boy was seen, it wasn't immediately known which way he was going.

His face was going one way, his shirt and tie the other. He also had trouble distinguishing the inside of the shirt from the outside. Shoes and socks of ·contrasting colors were also deemed desirable.

These were the fashions to be seen on campus. The "untotal" look of total disaster was characteristic of freshman initiation.

U. N. Dinner Will Feature Four Speakers The featured speakers for the United Nations Dinner, October 19 will be four of Peru's college freshman girls. The speakers are Grace Cook and Sheryl Floyd, who have lived in Hawaii, Jette A'Porta from Denmark, and Pat Thompson, who has lived in Germany.

They will speak or show slides of the foods, customs, and scenery of their particular country.

The menu for the dinner will be composed of dishes from these countries.

Nebraska Poet Laureate To Appear In Convo (Continued from page one) The University of Nebraska Press has taken over the publishing of "A Cycle of the West," which is his five epics of the conquest of the West in a single volume, and has just this fall brought out his lyrics and dramatic poems.

"A Cycle of the West" was selected as one of "The World's Best Books from Homer to Hemingway," covering the period from 1050 B.C. to 1950 A.D. Dr. Neihardt, whose published works number some 25 volumes, in 1936 received the gold scroll medal of honor as foremost poet of the nation, for the "Song of the Messiah," one of the epics in "A Cycle of the West." He is a Fellow of the International Institute of Arts and Letters, and an honorary Companion of the Order of the Indian Wars. Critics have termed him "the A m e r i c a n Homer."

A bust of Dr. Neihardt, the work of his s·culptress wife, the

late Mona,,Martinsen Neihardt, is in the Nebraska State Capitol.

Dr. Neihardt's works have been published in England, and, in translation, in Germany, Yugoslavia and Holland.

Dr. Neihardt's "A Cycle of the West" is based on many years of dose association with and understanding of the Indians and the pioneers of the West. Some of his early years were spent in a prairie sod house. He lived among the Omaha Indians from 1901 to 1907; later he was closely associated with the Oglafa Sioux and one of their great medicine men, Black Elk. He was director of information• for the U. S. Office of Indian Affairs during 1944-46, and field representative of that office in 1946-48.

From 1926 to 1938 Dr. Neihardt was literary editor of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. In his younger days in Nebraska he was also briefly connected with newspapers, before giving his time to the writing of poetry and, for some years, to fiction.

Bock Attends Teacher Education-Professional Standards Commissio.n Miss Dorothy Bock, State President of Student Education Association of Nebraska (SEAN), attended the Teacher Education and Professional Standards Commission (TEPS) . of N.ebraska meeting of Sept. 18-19, held at Lincoln.

At this meeting Miss Bock reported on plans for the fall meetings to be held in ·conjunction with the Teachers Conventions.

Miss Bock said, "Plans are to have a panel discussion, the panel to be comprised of three FTA members and three SEAN members, moderated by a state officer of SEAN." A problem confronting the group is the low attendance by the SEAN members due to the fact that several schools do not dismiss them to attend such ·conventions. Another problem is that many of the members of the local SEAN chapter leave the campus on weekends and are not available to serve as hosts to the FTA members.

Miss Bock stated, "The TEPS Commission is responsible for the SEAN and FTA 1chapters andi there needs to be a closer liaison between the groups and TEPS. It was the consensus that Dr. Bonneau as a member of the (Continued on page six)

Members of the Bus Stop cast are ·concluding a rigorous rehearsal schedule in preparation for the annual Homecoming Play, which will be presented on the evening of Oct. 23, at 7:00 in the College Auditorium.

William Inge's Bus Stop was presented on Broadway in rn55, and a motion picture version was released a short time later. The play is a skillful blend of humor and pathos. The setting is a restaurant in a small Kansas. town between Kansas City and Topeka. The plot involves the eight characters assembled as the re, sult of a spring blizzard.

MAJORS HALL

BY MIKE SULLIVAN Starting Saturday, Oct. 9, at 1:0-0 p,m., Majors Hall will have new rules concerning women guests in the dorm, The girlsmay visit on the following hours: Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday from 4:00 p.m.. to 10:00 p.m.; Saturday, from 1:0-0 p.m. to 12:30 p.m.; and on Sunday, from 1:0-0 p.m. to 1-0:30 p.m. No girl will enter Majors Hall unless escorted·. by a resident, unless she and her date are invited by a member of this hall. The girls will be restricted to the lobby and l()unge.

The weekends at Peru bring hunger pangs to many of us here at Majors Hall. The old three meals a day habit seems to get out of orbit from Saturday morning to Monday morning.

We residents on the west side of Majors Hall were awakened Saturday morning by the noise of trucks dumping the remnants of a sidewalk right outside our windows.

New furnishings have been installed ·in the first and second floor lounges. The new sofas are are. very comfortable, and add to the good studying and relaxing atmosphere of the lounge. The stereo record player and radio is also enjoyed by many of the residents.

If the Majors Hall residents aren't listening to records, playing cards, or studying, they are usually playing snooker downstairs in the game room. Dave LaMontagne has the longest run on our snooker table, with 38.

DELZELL HALL

BY BILL BOWEN One of the· real problems in Deizell this semester are rooms that have people living in them.

The rooms over here are admittedly larger than those at Majors, but to put three in one of them is crowding things just a bit. I expected the problem to be eased somewhat by the completion of the addition to Majors, but there are still some rooms with three in them. I have heard a suggestion that seems to have some merit. People who live three in a room should be given a redtj.ction in their room fees.

That seems quite fair, after all, why shoul<t everyone pay the same fee for less room? Perhaps since the over-crowding itself cannot be solved, this would be worth considering.

The weekends in Delzell have become even more boring than I remember their being last year.

The only possible improvement

t cah thlnk of is the acl.ctit1o11 of pool tables in the basement of the dorm. This does help wit h some of the long lonely hours.

One notable' change in the daily routine of Delzell are the increased numbers of people who attempt to eat some of their meals in their rooms. Crackers, cookies, and oranges are a poor substitute for a genuine lunch, however. · Very soon Delzell will have some furniture in its lobby area.

This will be one of the most needed improvements that could be made over here. The lack of furniture has been a point of annoyance with a number of people around here for the last three semesters, and! I suspect even before that. I'm glad that at last we will have some semblance of a lobby area. More than one of us will appreciate a place to sit down.

ELIZA MORGAN HALL

BY MARY ANN SHARP A new vice-president for the dorm was elected to replace Barb Lasko, who did not return this year. Nancy Muse is the newly elected officer. She has also ·been elected president of the W.A.A. Our congratulations go to herfor both of these offices. Marge Chilvers has been appointed as "Art Director" for the dorm, with special emphasis on decorations 'for Homecoming. Susan Kenworthy will serve as our social chairman.

Special congratulations are being extended also to those who were elected Homecoming queen candidates - Pat Knippelmier, Kathy Francis, Mary Mowry, Ceci Evangelist, and Marilyn Masters.

It is interesting to know that many of the girls iri Morgan Hall have come from areas other than the midwest to attend collegg; in Peru. These areas range from Hawaii and Denmark to the states back east.

Barb Borgeson came from Sudbury, Massachusetts which is only about fifteen minutes from the famed Worcester metropolis. She selected Peru State through the advice of her guidance counselor at Lincoln Sudbury Regional.

The guidance counselor's daughter also attended college in Nebraska. Barbara plans on a major in elementary education.

Maureen Joy came from Norwood, Mass., and! was graduateq from Norwood High School. She worked for a resort in Maine all summer arid chose this college on the recommendation of a friend already acquainted with Peru. She hopes to acquire a foreign languages major, though her decision is not final.

The victory, first of the season for Peru after three losses, erid€n an eight-game losing streak for Peru which started on October 10, 1964 when Wayne State humbled the Peruvians.

Erv Pitts, Peru State he ad coach, hedged his elation over the long-sought victory with the simple statement, "We didn't play very well."

Statistics bear out Pitts' contention. Pitts singled out offensive blocking and pass receiving as areas where Peru looked dismal at times. The Bobcat ground game sputtered with only 38 yards net rushing, and the Bobcats nabbed only five of 21 passing thrusts.

Peru's 21-0 score was not indicative of the ·closeness of the game. Peru ·counted an opening quarter touchdown and then had to wait until the game's final five minutes to ice the contest with a pair of touchdown strikes.

Despite Peru's problems, the victory was a pep pill for the Bobcat gridders. Defensive linebacker and halfback Vince Sabatinelli, senior from Southbridge, Mass., summed up t h e team's attitude following the game: "We didn't play as well as I had hoped, but the pressure of an eight game losing streak, and losing three games this year that we could have won made us 'tight.' Winning that game was like breaking over the ·crest of a high hill-I think things will go better for us now," Sabatinelli said.

Peru scored the win on t h e strength of the right arm of freshman Carl Satterfield, a graduate of Chicago's Roosevelt High School. Near the end of the first quarter, Satterfield, from the 50yard line, uncorked a heave to end John Creamer, Worcester, Mass., freshman. Creamer pulled it in on the Chadron 25 and

sliced to the Eagle four before being nailed. On the next play, freshman fullback Jim Kollbaum, Battle Creek, Iowa; knifed over his own right tackle to score .with 18 seconds remaining in the corner. The TD was Kollbaum's first collegiate score.

Kollbaum got his opportunity to play some three minutes ear~ lier when Roy Windhorst, Peru's starting fullback, was injured.

Windhorst shook off enough of the hurt to come in and kick the extra point.

Peru's s e c on d touchdown, scored with 4:55 left in the game, was set up by a 51 yard pass-run play from Satterfield to Creamer.

Creamer speared the aerial on the Chadron 35 and raced down the left sideline to the Chadron two before being knocked out of bounds.

Following a five yard offside penalty assessed against Peru, Jim Kollbaum smashed right side of the Chadron line three times to bring the ball back to the one.

On the next play, Satterfield scored when he faked to his fullback going into the right side and then whirled to skirt 1 e ft end on a naked keeper for the counter.

The final Peru score came with 50 seconds remaining on a 24· yard pass from Satterfield to senior end Jim Manning, Slidell, La. A 39-yard pass play from Satterfield to halfback Curt Holliman, junior from Rockford, Ill., had put the Bobcats on the Chadron 24.

Following the game, Coach Pitts singled out three Bobcat interior linemen for s p e c i a 1 praise. Phil Malone, 240 pound g~ard from Plattsburg, Mo., Be[.:: me Brown, 201 pound guardfrom Rockford, Ill., and 250 pound tackle John Gilmore, Shenandoah, Iowa, led the Bobcat defense.

Brown was credited with seven tackles and two assists, Gilmore with seven and two, and Malone with four tackles and three assists.

Pitts also commended the play of end John Creamer whose two pass grabs netted 97 yards and set up two touchdowns.

SPORTS COLUMN

BY DICK BERTHOLD The Bobcats picked up their first NCC vidory over Chadron State Oct. 2 by a shutout of 21-0.

Satterfield's aerial attack proved successful when he ·connected to Kollbaum for a 48-yard touchdown. A Satterfield. to Creamer combination resulted in the next 50-yard tally. Manning tucked the pigskin in for another 25 yard aerial touchdown to complete the scoring. Coach Pitts stated, "I was real pleased with the over-al! play. The team played well to win, and I be· lieve Chadron is physically the strongest team in the conference."

The Peru Bobcats revenged last year's 47-7 thrashing by Wayne although losing the contest 17 · 7. Wayne State's potent rushing game was picked to be better than ever with the return of their entire backfield from the 1964 team which ranked third in NAIA rushing and tenth in NAIA total offense.

Although the Wildcats gained: 14g yards in their rushing game compared to Peru's 39 yards, the Bobcats netted 104 aerial yard•s to Wayne's 37. Peru completed eight of 22 passes for a 35.4 per cent average. The Wildcats connected for four of nine passes for a 44.4 per cent average. Wayne dominated the first down statistics with 12 ·compared to Peru's eight.

Over-all; Coach Pitts w a s pleased with the team's performance, especially the defense.

Wayne took advantage of two Peru infractions which set up their winning points. "We've im· proved every week,'' Coach Pitts stated, "and we will continue the trend. There's no reason why Pe· ru should fear Kearney since we have shown good potential and improvement."

Pitts praised Malone, Gilmore, Bernie Brown, and Witty for excellent line play. "The t ea m has shown they can hit with the hardest in the league," Pitts commented, "and I am well pleased they can play hard-nosed football."

Bernie Brown Is State College Star Of The Week "A leader in improving Peru State resistance, is two-way guard Bernie Brown,'' according to the World-Herald who picked Bernie as its State College Star of the Week.

As his team stopped Chadron, 21-0, 5-11, the 201 pound junior contributed seven tackles and four assists.

Bernie pilfered a pass in the fourth quarter, but fell over teammate Bob Urwin's block 15 yards from the goal line.

"He'll outrun most of our backs," was Bobcat Coach Ervin Pitts' statement about Bernie's speed.

Last season he found time to run track and was credited with running a 10.3 100-yard dash.

This is his third year as a regular on the Bobcat squad. In the past two seasons Bernie has received honorable mention for the all NCC team, but has made the defensive unit.

Bernie does not credit his success to quickness but rather to "alertness" and "awareness" of the game.

President's Secretary Is An "Unsung Hero" In a school system, just as in any system which depends on teamwork, there are the unsung heroes. Such is the case of the secretaries in schools. Mrs. Mary Anna Gnade, secretary to the president, is a good example.

This is the twelfth year Mrs. Gnade has served as secretary to the president. When she first started, the enrollment was approximately 250 students. Despite the great increase of enrollment Mrs. Gnade says the noise and commotion have decreased during the years. She believes t he manner of conduct has generally improved through the years.

Mrs. Gnade attended the campus school here at Peru and attended high school in De s Moines, Iowa. She served as secretary for five years at the State House in Des Moines. She also did secretarial work at the Peru Lumber Company for 3"2 years.

Mrs. Gnade enjoys varied contact with· both students and teachers. Besides doing her regular secretarial chores, she frequently helps with the costuming and make-up in college and high school plays.

Mrs. Gnade resides at 1820 Park Avenue, here at Peru. She is the mother of six <:hildren: Jimmy, a tenth grader, who attends the campus school, and is an active football player; Sally, an eleventh grader, who attends the campus school and is a longtime band member; Jeannie, who attends the University of Nebraska; Bob, who attended Peru State College in 1961, and who is now in the service, stationed in Japan; Steve, also in the service stationed in Oklahoma; and Mrs. Falk, who is employed at the campus library.

Dorothy announced the date the fall convention on the 4th December at Doane college ca pus. She was requested to se a copy of the program for th students' convention so that i can be made available to mem bers of the TEPS commission.

Dorothy, who attended the SEA Conference in Washington, gave a report of the conference.

The theme of the Student Con· ference was "If Not, Why-If Not Today, When?" Discussed at the student meeting was a report by a Special Study Committee on· Recruitment, Induction, and the Student Programs. Dorothy reported, "The students went through the report carefully and while some parts of the report were favorably received, other parts met with some disfavor."

Convocation To Feature Ashley Attends Regional Nebraska Poet Laureate Meeting Of A.S.C.D. . (Continued from page one) Mr. Neihardt lived with the people he wrote about in hiS poems. When he was gathering information for his book Black Elk Speaks, he lived with the Oglala Sioux medicine man, Black Elk, who became a very close friend. Neihardt wanted his information first hand1 so he would listen· to the old timers reminisce about the battles in which they had fought. He was also well versed in early frontier history. This aided him in writing the first three songs of A Cycle of the West.

His best known epic is A Cy· cle of the West. John Neihardt was 31 years old when he began work on this epic, and he was 60 when he completed it. This epic deals with the period of ex· ploration and settlement t h a t John Neihardt knew personally as a young boy. It began in 1822 when General Ashley and Major Henry led a band of a hundred trappers from St. Louis, "the Mother of the West," to the upper Missouri River and ended in 1890 with the Battle of Wounded Knee which marked the end of Indian resistance on the Plains.

The five Songs of the Cycle of the West are written in chronological order starting with the adventures of the Ashley-Henry men on the Missouri River to the crossing of the desert and moun· tains to the west coast. The last Song deals with the conquered Indian and the end of his great civilization. John G. Neihardt writes of life as it really was and not the way some imagined it to be. His poems represent a story of his life.

(Continued from page one) attended by a few national figures.

According to Miss Ashley, the prime purpose of this meeting was to introduce new curriculum and ideas in biology, science, and other elementary subjects.

Homecoming Royalty Candidates Revealed (Continued from page one) Omega, the national honorary math fraternity.

United Nations Dinner To Feature Four Guest Speakers The 14th annual United Nations Dinner will be served at 6:30 p.m. on Tuesday, Oct. 19, in the Campus School Auditorium.

The menu features Danish, German, and Hawaiian dishes that will be planned and prepared by the experimental foods class and served by members of the Home Economics Club. Mike McNeely will play several piano selections before the meal is served.

The four speakers are freshman students at Peru State College.

Jette A'Porta, a native of Copenhagen, Denmark, has lived in the United States a year and a half.

Sherri Floyd, from Amarillo, Texas, and Grace Cook of Corning, Iowa, will speak on the life and customs of our 50th state, Hawaii. Pat Thompson from Parlin, New Jersey, will tell about life in Germany.

A trial run of the dinner was made on Monday, October 11, in the home economics room. Th e four speakers were invited to the dinner. Don Carlile and Bob Henry from Special Services were also guests, and they took pictures of the girls in the experimental food class as they 'prepared the meal.

Peruvian Pictures Snapped Peru students were dressed .in their "Sunday best" on Oct. 12, 13, and 14 as they filed into the Student Center game room to have their pktures taken for the Peruvian yearbook. The mirrors in the trophy cases helped t h e students to do last minute sprucing-up and to practice saying "cheese" to get the desired smile they wanted to use in front of the camera.

On Tuesday, 190 students had their pictures taken by Bill Oliver from Del Mar Studio in Omaha. The club organization pictures were snapped on Thursday, Oct. 14. Classes were dismissed at 1 :00 p.m.

Freshmen Suffer Through Organized Events Again The organized events of the freshman initiation took place on the evening of September 29 at the intramural football field. The freshmen were seated in a large group and warned not to smile throughout the evening. They were then left to be preyed upon by the upperclassmen who served them the delightfully distinctive "goober juice."

The events themselves began with the choice of the hapless freshman to occupy the box. A second freshman was chosen t9 beat on the box with a bat. The person inside the box then rang the bell so that all could hear it.

As the evening wore on several freshmen were given the opportunity to ring the bell. The sack races followed with very tall boys with considerably shorter girls. So many partkipants were involved that two races were required to handle them all.

The infamous beauty parlor came next on the agenda w i t h freshmen being shown the latest techniques in beauty. Participants suffered the use of catsup, mustard, flour, and raw eggs in the treatment. The whipped cream race followed, with the freshmen being divided into relay teams. In the process of relaying the cans of w h i p p e d cream, a notable loss of whipped

cream took place among the racers.

The shoe scramble which came next, included a larger number of freshmen than . any other event. In the scrambling several shoes were never recovered. Other events of the evening included the egg catch, wheelbarrow race, egg-in-the-mouth race, and the goober juice race.

The whole evening was a fitting end to the freshman initiation, and sighs of relief were heard from many an unburdened freshman.

Neihardt Entertains With His Poetry

BY BOBBIE ARMSTRONG

Nebraska's Poet Laureate, Dr. John G. Neihardt received a warm welcome from the student body when he was introduced by Silas E. Summers at the Oct. 27 convocation. The 84 year old poet transported the audience back through time to the frontier days as he read from h i s epic poem Cycle of the West. He recited the "Song of the Indian Wars" which is one of the five songs found in the Cycle of the West. This song portrayed the events concerning the last fight for bison land between the white man and the plains Indians.

Mr. Neihardt also recited three lyric poems from the Stranger at the Gate. This book of eleven sequences was written before the birth of his first daughter. The three selections from this book were, "Hymn Before Birth," "Child's Heritage," and "Lullaby to a Baby." He also recited several of his other lyric poems. Mr. Neihardt is interested in poetic techniques, especially rhyme scheme and sound scheme patterns which are very evident in his lyric poems.

Mr: John Neihardt attended the Romantic Period class which was held in the auditorium. All who were interested were invited to attend this class. A noon luncheon was sponsored by the EngThe annual "P" Club Home· lish Club for John Neihardt in the faculty dining room.

"P" Club Luncheon

Miss Marilyn ·Masters, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. NormanMasters of Nebraska City, was crowned Homecoming Queen for 1965 during the halftime events at the Peru-Doane football game on October 23.

M\).rilyn is a second semester senior at Peru State majoring in elementary .education. In her four years at Peru, she has been very active in White Angels and W.A.A. She was a cheerleader her freshman, sophomore, and junior years, and she was a candidate for Homecoming Queen her junior year. During Marilyn's freshman and junior years she was an attendant in the May Fete Royalty, and she was honored during her freshman and junior years to be an attendant in the Sweetheart Royalty held annually as part of the Valentine's Day festivities. Besides her membership in White Angels and P.S.E.A. this year, Marilyn belongs to the Methodist Church in Nebraska City.

Although her plans are yet indefinite as to where she will teach, Marilyn wants to teach in the elementary school following her graduation from Peru State College in January.

There were four attendants to Queen Marilyn.

Bobcats Rally To Please Homecoming Crowd Peru State College capitalized on three defensive gems to score three touchdowns · and hand Doane a W-7 loss at Peru State before a huge Homecoming crowd Oct. 23. Coach Erv Pitts' Bobcats turned a Doane fumble, a blocked punt, and a defensive stand deep in Doane territory into touchdowns in Peru's 44th annual homecoming game.

Peru broke- into a 6-0 lead with 3:00 left in the first quarter on a 21-yard gallop by Carl Satterfield. The Bobcats had gained possession on Doane's 32-yard line when Phil Malone ripped the ball away from Doane quarterback Bill Stephenson in what was credited as a fumble recovery. This was one of four Doane fumbles the alert Bobcats recovered. Five plays later Satterfield ran the option play to the right side, elected to run, and scored after breaking away from two Doane tacklers on the 18-yard line. Roy Windhorst's attempted PAT kick was blocked by Doane's Dale Hoppe.

Peru threatened seriously with seconds remaining in the first quarter but was stymied on the Tiger 5-yard line. Doane's deepest first half penetration was to the Peru 34-yard stripe, and that drive was nipped when Jim Manning pounced on another Tiger fumble.

Doane stormed back to take command briefly in the third quarter. The first time Doane got their hands on the ball, following the halftime festivities, they drove 65 yards to score and Fred Hayeks' extra point boot gave Doane a 7-6 lead. Doane's touchdown came on a 32-yard pass from Bill Stephenson to end Dick Katzman with 9:34 left in the third period.

The next time the Tigers took control of the ball, the big break of the day for the Bobcats occurred. With the ball resting on the Peru 46, Doane was found guilty of a clipping penalty and a personal foul on the same play.

After the 30-yard penalty s e t Doane back to their 24, the Tigers were forced to punt.

Defensive guard Harold Van Arsdale broke through to block Dick Bush's punt. The ball bounced crazily at the 15-yard line, where Peru's Bernie Brown scooped it up and· raced in to score as the clock showed 5:40 left in the third period.

A pass from Satterfield to end John Creamer added the extra point and Peru led 13-7. With time becoming an important factor, Peru's tough defensive line held the Tigers on downs on the latter's 14-yard line. Twice with one yard to go for a first down, (Continued on page four)

Independents Win With Bobcat Display Some very fine homecoming exhibits added to the festive mood on the Peru State campus the Oct. 23 weekend.

Judged as the best exhibit was the Independents' huge bobcat, loc.ated at the gymnasium. The bobcat emitted "screams," which could be heard over most of the campus. The Independents broke the three year winning streak of the Industrial Arts Club.

Second place went to thEJ Alpha Mu Omega project located by the Science Hall. "Crush the Tigers" depicted a large bobcat holding a tiger.

Gaining third place, was the cleverly decorated covered wagon constructed by the Wesley Fellowship. Its theme was "Victory or Bust," and "Roll over Doane."

There were many other very imaginative exhibits around the campus. Much time, labor, and creativity were employed by all who entered a project.

Alumni Coffee Homecoming day, Oct. 23, witnessed the arrival of many Peru State grads. The annual alumni coffee was held in the Student c·enter Snack Bar from 9:30 to 11:00 Saturday morning. There was a great deal of handshaking and renewing of old friendships.

To make any Homecoming a success, many people must have a hand in it. Every year there are several "unsung heroes" who· go on unrewarded. Of course, many thanks are in order for the participation of the 1965 football squad, the P~ru State College Band, under the direction of Mr. Gilbert 'E. Wilson, and the builders of the many displays which adorned the campus for the 1965 Homecoming Day festivities on October 23.

Many people don't realize that there are several tasks and responsibilities that must be taken care of weeks before the actual day. Most of the preliminary arrangements are handled by the Student Governing Asso~iation. The spotlight here should shine on Bill Rinne, S.G.A. president, and Myra Murren, social chairman. It was Bill's responsibility to oversee the necessary arrangements because the Homecoming and particularly the Homecoming Dance are sponsored by the S.G.A. · The theme of the displays and dance decorations, and the rules regarding design and location of displays are· just some of the responsibilities of the S.G.A. Myra, as social , chairman, must organize various committees for handling the necessary arrangements.

The biggest responsibility for any committee is the Gym Decoration Committee. Cherie Trevino handled this committee by planning the decorations, ordering the necessary materials and equipment, and planning a work schedule.

Chuck Wellensiek was the chairman in charge of the halftime ceremony. He was responsible for making sure that the time limit was met, a script for the candidates was written, and for handling the actual presentation.

The flowers adorning the candidates and the bouquet of roses were ordered by Marilyn Masters, the reigning Homecoming Queen.

Royce Curtis located the five colorful convertibles and the drivers used to transport the candidates around the field at the halftime show.

The throne and chairs for the Queen and her court were gotten through the efforts of Charles Gordon. Chuck Stoner set up the band stand for the dance. · The crowning .ceremony at the dance was arranged by Myrene Davis who emceed the presentation. Many questions were hurled at Myra Murren, the Royal Committee Chairman; Without publicity, no dance can be a success. Paul Fell, as Chairman, and Mickey Slagle, as Co-Chairman, publicized the ticket sale. The actual ticket selling was handled by Gary Fritsch. .

The crown was the responsibility of Kathy Hennig and was carried by crown bearers secured by Cheri Co..,mbs.

Mary Sautter obtained chaperones for the dance.

A special thanks goes to the escorts, Charles Gordon, Jack Rinne, Royce Curtis, Dean Cain, Bill Rinne, and Ron Kroll.

Without judges there can't be a contest, so without Mrs. Dick Haughn, Mr. Selleck, Mr. Gavin, Mr. Thomas, Karon Rathe, and Myra Murren, the displays couldn't have been reviewed.

DELZELL HALL . BY BILL BOWEN Delzell acquired a new lounge area during · the week before Homecoming. After a fresh coat of paint in the entire downstairs area, Delzell took delivery of some beautiful new furniture.

Suddenly .the lounge changed from a plain empty room into a comfortably luxurious s i t t in g room. I can only compliment the dormitory officers on their taste

in choosing the appointments.

The room is a soft reminder of a living room at home, and is a satisfying change from the stark bareness that faced us as we came in before.

We owe our good fortune to Mr. Larry Ebner, Peru State's Business Manager. His interest and help are responsible for our new furnishings. Rather than say a simple thanks, I think we should honor Mr. Ebner's kindness by preserving that furniture for our own use. That would

I think that it should be pointed out that Delzell residents will have the unique opportunity of helping redesign the dormitory.

If nothing else, it shows the confidence that someone is willing to place in our intelligence. I appreciate the trust, and I hope that we can live up to it.

One addition to this column that I will include when~ver the topics of conversation around here seem to warrant it, will be called, "Only In Peru." The first item is a suggestion that the descriptive slogan of the college be changed from the current, "Campus Of a Thousand Oaks," to a more topical "Campus Of a Thousand Sidewalks." The poor confused student p r a ct i c ally needs a roadmap to negotiate the sidewalks now, and even more are being built. Finally, 'where else but in Peru do builders lay sidewalks that have trees in their centers. It is aesthetically beautiful, but it is also somewhat unnerving. Please don't misunderstand, however, because the new sidewalks are needed and appreciated.. Remember, on the other hand, that even valuable changes are often quite funny.

Last weekend's open house here at Majors Hall proved to be a pleasant time for the residents, their families, and their g i r 1 friends. The dorm received many visitors, who seemed to have a very favorable reaction to our dorm. The new plants and furnishings in the lounge and lobby are very attractive. A.lso, the new wing in the dorm drew many favorable comments.

Everyone enjoyed the I 0 n g teacher's convention weekend.

Some of the students such as Ed Corwin and Paul Hendrickson of Worcester, Massachusetts ar~ making their first trip home, since the start of the school year.

The Majors Hall Homecoming exhibit included a Peru player replica in a rocket ship, and a replica of a subdued Doane player who lay defeated beside the Peru player. The theme was "Rocket to Victory."

One of the brightest aspects of living in Majors Hall is the presence of our jovial janitor, "Duff."

"Duff" and his able staff of assistants, keep our dorm in spic and span condition. No matter what is going on, "Duff" always has a humorous remark to lighten the situation.

A good deal of credit for the pleasant atmosphere of our dorm goes to Mrs. Oestman, our dorm mother. She has a personality which makes the students want to cooperate with her.

SPORTS COLUMN

By Dick

Berthold With a four loss and three win season, the Peru Bobcats are advancing in NCC play. The Bobcats utilized four Bronco fumbles to their advantage Oct. 16 and stunned the NCC Bronco favorites 20-6. Hagemeier's interception and run to the Hastings 8-ya:rd line opened the door for Kollbaum's second touchdown.

Earlier, Kollbaum tallied on an 11-yard run that highlighted a 38-yard march. Peru dominated the latter portion of the game and scored with 2:12 left on a 42-yard Satterfield-to-Holliman combination. Coach Pitts praised the Bobcat effort and cited Malone, Bernie Brown, Gilmore, and Urwin for an outstanding defensive job.

Bobcat Defense Stops .Hastings For 20-6 Victory A rugged rushing defense and the running of fullback J i m Kollbaum pepped revenge-mind· ed Peru State College to a 20 to 6 Nebraska College Conference football victory over Hastings College in the Broncos h om e corral, Oct. 16.

Kollbaum, the 205 lb. blockbuster from Battle Creek, Iowa, scored Peru's first two touchdowns and the Bobcat defensive line limited Hastings to 35 yards rushing during the game.

Revenge was the keynote of the Peru victory. Time after time during the preceding practice sessons, Bobcat Coach Ervin Pitts reminded his charges of last year's humiliating 50 to 0 loss to Hastings suffered before a huge Peru S t at e homecoming throng.

Pitts' admonition evidently had the desired effect as the Bobcats upset nearly all the dopesters in registering the victory.

Even as pleasing was the way Peru fought back after b e in g shocked by a Hastings touchdown on the opening play of the game when freshman Benny Congrove took the initial kickoff and sped 95 yards to score.

Peru took new life when Congrove's PAT went to the left of the goal posts and Hastings led 6 to 0 with 14:47 still left on the first quarter clock.

Following the game, Coach Pitts gave credit for the victory to Peru's stout defensive forward wall. Ring leaders of the stingy Bobcat defense were guards Phil Malone and John Gilmore, and tackle Bernie Brown. Pitts also cited the defensive work of linebackers Bob Urwin, and Vince Sabatinelli, as a key factor in limiting Hastings to their 35 rushing yards.

Peru was without the services of tackle Floyd Goff, center Bill Witty, defensive end Tim Logsdon, and defensive guard Harold VanArsdale, all sitting out the game with limb injuries.

The win over Hastings w a s partially the result of Pern State's taking advantage of Bronco mistakes.

Peru State's cross-country team Hastings' errors to go into a 7-6 swept to their sixth straight lead with 5:37 remaining in the meet victory as they copped a triangular win from visiting second quarter.

Peru gained ball possession on Tarkio College and Northwest the Hastings 38 when a fourth Missouri 63. down snap from center sailed Peru's Louis Fritz took first over the head of Hastings' wouldbe punter. Four plays later Hast- place with a time of 20:57 over ings had thrown the Bobcats the four-mile course. This was back to the 40-yard line, and Fritz's fifth meet victory in six meets, as he placed second to Peru had to punt.

Roy Windhorst spiraled a punt Omaha's Ken Gould while Peru to the one-foot line, but in the defeated Omaha U n i v e r s i t y . meantime Hastings was ca!ted Rounding out the Bobcat scorfor roughing the kicker, and the ing were: Jim Hendricks, second Bobcats had new ·first down life (21:18); Jim Watson, third on the 25-yard stripe.

Windhorst again split the uprights with the extra point to make it 14-6.

The final Bobcat tally came with 2:12 left in the game when Carl Satterfield, Chicago fresh man quarterback, pitched a pass to Curt Holliman, Rockford, Ill., in the flat, and the speedy junior halfback sprinted 42 yards to score. Windhorst's extra point kick sliced wide to the right.

The Bobcats revenged last year's 21-7 ·defeat and scored in the first, third, and fourth quarters to upset Doane 20-7 while adding the finishing touches to Peru's Homecoming festivities Oct. 23. Coach Pitts cited Harold Van Arsdale's blocked punt and Bernie Brown's grab for s ix points as one major play in the contest. The loss of a first down by inches was a disappointment in the first quarter.

Doane gained seven first downs for 207 yards to Peru's five first downs for 177 yards. Doane averaged 31.25 per cent on pass completfons compared to the Bobcats' 28.6 per cent. The ·major factor was Doane's four fumbles which the Bobcats used to advantage.

Coach Pitts stated, "Our passing and running game will improve. Over-all, I'm not pleased: with the offense because we can't achieve consistency. At this point, the defense has been outstanding." "I'm real pleased with the team's morale" he added, "particularly after Hastings' opening kick-off return which failed to demoralize the Bobcats."

This week the Bobcats conclude their 1965 schedule against Washburn University at Topeka.

As defending CIC champions, Washburn's nucleus will be

formed around Dode Lesser, 23 lb. tackle; Rod Tiesing, 228 end; and Pat Sherzer, defensi halfback. Peru's 42-0 loss 1as year should be revenged Satur day, Nov. 6.

The Peru harriers have e joyed another outstanding seaso with Louis Fritz leading th squad. The remaining schedul should prove that the top notch harriers are exceptional.

Where The Pies Come From

Dr. Vernon Siegner helps us a great deal. He may use anything from a Leica 35 to a Press Graphic. The football action shots in this issue were made with a Leica equipped with a telephoto lens.

Dr. Siegner's photography students are helping with phot~­ raphy for the Peruvian as a part of their class assignments.

Because of Homecoming, this Ped is loaded with pictures, so this is a good time to tell where the pictures come from.

Student photographers on the Ped ap.d Peruvian staffs are a major source. Our photographers this fall are Elaine Neddenriep, Walter Rimmer, and Mel Hester.

Elaine uses a Yashica, a reflex camera that takes 120 film. Walter uses a Japanese 35. Mel uses a Leica 35.

Fritz's effort was the third time this year he has bettered h.is own Peru State three-mile mark. At the start of this season, the record stood at 16:07.

In clipping 10 seconds off the existing standard he set on Oct. 8, Fritz pepped the Peruvians to a lopsided victory. Jim Pilkington's Bobcats scored 18 points, Midland 50, and Midwestern 70. Midwestern, in its initial year of operation, was competing in its first cross country meet.

Peru State College carved a notch in the ranks of "come back" teams as they outscrambled Kearney State at Peru to win 14-13 and annex a portion of the NCC championship Oct. 30. In winning, the Bobcats completed a long up-hiH battle to the top spot of the NCC, a position they share with Kearney and Wayne State, who have identical three win and one loss records in NCC competition.

Despite the crowded top spot, it was an extraordinary "comeback" for the Bobcats on the heels of last year's fourth place NCC finish with only one victory. The win over Kearney evened the Bobcats' season record at four wins and four losses.

Carl Satterfield, frosh signal caller, passed for one Bobcat touchdown and set up another with his passing in an evening which saw him throw for 154 yards on 12 completions in 21 attempts.

Freshman defender Bill Everhart made the key defensive play of the night following Kearney's near-equalizing second

Everhart roared through the Kearney line to block Lee Jacobson's extra point attempt and to keep Peru in front 14-13. With seven seconds remaining in the game, Everhart thwarted Kearney's <lesperation field goal attempt from the 35 when he smacked down Jacobson's possible game-winning placement.

Sparked by Satterfield's nerve and poise,. the Bobcats marched 79 yards in 14 plays to score on a 7-yard pitch by Satterfield to end John Creamer with 4:37 remaining in the first quarter. Roy Windhorst's kick from placement put Peru into a 7-0 lead.

Satterfield had a personalhand in gaining 70 yards on this drive.

He completed two passes to Creamer good for 16 (including the TD), ran the ball three times for 39 yards, and caught a pass from Bill Daigle for 15 yards. On the latter p 1a y, Satterfield pitched out to Daigle, a quarterback running from the halfback position, and Daigle sprinted to his right w hi 1e Satterfield (Continued on page three)

EJ)ITORIAL On behalf of the Peru State College football players and coaches, I would like to thank the member~ of the student body in general arid the members of the Blue Devils ·in· particular for the fine support given our team in the recent football game with Kearney. I believe that the prime reason · our boys played so well was because of the strong enthusiasm and fine support you provided during this game.

We thank you for this enthusiasm and hope that you will continue to support us in this manner which has been, over the years, a tradition here at Peru State College.

Sincerely, Ervin .R. Pitts, Football Coach.

Editor's Note: Speaking for the Ped staff and the student body, we congratulate Coaches Pitts, Pelisek, and McIntire, and the entire Bobcat team for the tremendous showing they have made this year.

BY MARY ANN SHARP There was no column for the dorm in the last issue of the Pedagogian due to illness in my family-me. This explanation Is for the benefit of those who thought at last that with this many girls, we had finally run out of news and made a new mark in history~ I have been asked to make several announcements, some of which would have been printed in the last column. Miss Jeanie Bang, a junior in the field of elementary education, became engaged .on her twentieth birthday to Jim Felten. Jim was a 1965 graduate from Peru and is now teaching Industrial Arts in the ji.mior high level in Omaha. They have made no further plans for the. moment.

The day before Marilyn Masters was crowned Homecoming Queen, she received a diamond from Tom Yopp, a former student of Peru State. He now works in Nebraska City as a salesman for the John Deere Co. Marilyn began her student teaching in Syracuse this week in the elemeniary grades.

Nancy Gossett and Ron Robbins have set no date as yet, since Ron is a senior concentrating in physical education and math. Nancy is a second semester· freshman, majoring in elementary education. Majoring in Art at Peru State is Rosemary Slagle who announces her en. gagement to Vernon De Groot from Inwood, Iowa. He is an airman stationed at Lackland A.F.B. in San Antonio, Texas. No future plans have been made at the moment.

With the end of the first nine weeks, much of the time w a s spent on mid-term exams and final papers for those girls who have now begun their student teaching. Those not so b us y studying were taking the time to

DELZELL HALL

BY BILL BOWEN Delzell is now the proud possessor of one of the nation's greatest natural monuments. On the second floor live a Mr. Pike and a Mr. Peak to make Delzell's version of Colorado's Pike's Peak.

There is now a p0ssibility that we will have a hot drink vending. machine installed in o u r building. The addition of such machines are always an added converni.ence to life in the dormitory. There will be complaints about the operation of the machines, and those complaints will probably emanate from me. However, if we have to put up with the capricious vendors, we may as well have as many kinds of service as possible. There are available vending machines that dispense sandwiches, candy, and such snacks as potato chips and peanuts.

I was informed that the profits from these machines go to the Peru Achievement Foundation, indicating a highly laudable situation. I think that the increase in the number and type of machines could only be to the increased benefit of the foundation.

There can be little doubt in anyone's mind that the vending machines could be operated profitably in the dormitories. The amount of food that is purchased and kept in the various rooms for snacks should be an adequate index to the market that exists and could be served by such machines.

Many of the residents in the dorm are in favor of obtaining a bottle machine for soft drinks, rather than using the cup-containing soft drink machine now in use. It seems that last year, there was a bottle machine in the dorm, but a few students .took it upon themselves to sell the pop bottles and pop cases for spending money. This is the reason we have the cup machine this year.

Led by Don Lehman, several of the boys went on a snipe hunt the other night. Everyone had a good time, but Don got lost for about 20 minutes. He missed all the snipes that the other boys so vigorously flushed, but all the boys seemed to have a good time anyway.

The trip back to Worcester, Massachusetts, on teachers convention weekend, proved to be costly for Ed Corwin and Rick Cannole. In their enthusiasm to reach home, they each acquired a speeding ticket, Mr. Corwin in Ohio, and Mr. Cannole in Illinois.

The record enthusiasts of the dorm are still waiting patiently for the arrival of a needle for the stereo. It seems the shipping time is taking a little longer than was expected.

Bill Rinne gave greetings from the S.G.A.; Miss· Gladys Grush from the Peru facUlty; and Mr. John L. Lewis from the Peru Achievement Foundation.

After Senator Hughes' address, Mr. A. D. Majors and Mr. E. K. Yanney of the Normal Board assisted Martha Ann Mullen, Peru's 1,000th student, in cutting the 1041 Cake.

The program ended with the singing of the "Color Song."

An event not on the printed program provoked much laughter. For years, Dr. Gomon has referred to various funds as

"cream cans." The NormalBoard presented him with a "gold," bottomless cream can with 1041 newly minted pennies in it.

When Dr. Gomoh became president in 1951, Peru's enrollment was 287.

WllAT IS GOING ON IN VIET NAM.?

By .Mel Hester \

Each day we read the newspapers telling us how B-52 jet bombers ripped up Red entrenchments and how U. S. ground troops killed hundreds of communists in a single engagement. In fact, in a recent battle the communist death toll reached 890. As for the number of Americans dead or wounded, we are only told the casualties were light or moderate. ·· What exactly is light or moderate. Does this · mean our casualties were light or moderate compared.· fo. the communist death count. Is fifty light or moderate or is 250.

Eight American planes have been downed· by missiles which the Russians supply to the North Vietnamese. Jus.t how many other planes have been snatched from flight by other means? We can be sure no matter how many it has been, the American people will be informed in the terms of "light" or "moderate."

A recent Associated Press picture was adjoined with this caption, "Poncho-covered bodies of American soldiers testify to what it has cost the 1st Cavalry Division to hold on in Ia Drang Valley." In the picture could be seen somewhere between fifteen and twenty dead Americans. These young Americans made the supreme sacrifice. Were these fifteen or twenty Americans among the "light" or the "moderates?" Were they the casualties of a single day, a single hour, or a single explosion? ·.Do we have to go ourselves to Saigon, Ia Drang Valley or the jungle between to learn the true story of Viet Nam. The war is every American's war. One would not brief only the pilot of a bomber before a mission and not the bombardier. We who are at home are a part of the team, but how can we play without knowing the game?

There are many who know what's going on. Their letters home tell a tale not censored or watered down. In my next article on Viet Nam, I'll bring some of these letters from those fighting.

problem and have unde.rtaken a new business, in the form of a small coffee house. Admittedly, the furnishings in the building are not of the highest fashion, but the surroundings are suitable for the purpose they serve. ...., Poubts about the idea of student enterprise have been raised in the minds of some faculty members, townspeople, and even among students. The idea of students operating a business for students sparks misgivings on the part of some because of the suspicion that only riotous behavior will result through such a scheme.

Any student-operated establishment, then, must avoid any cause for notoriety, and make every . effort to prove to the college community .that only wholesome entertainment is being provided. On the other hand, however, it would seem only reasonable and fair that adults in authority would allow students to be involved in a business. Only positive proof of improper behavior should be grounds for dissolving a student enterprise.

The success of the new coffee house, or of any student venture, depends to a large extent on the intention and actions of the student clientele. If Peruvians want their own place of socializing and entertainment, they must not in any way undermine the activity through misconduct. The · students themselves must insist upon discipline to accepted bebehavior, and inform other students of this necessity.

If the student customers, adults, and student businessmen will cooperate openly with one another, there is no reason to believe that student enterprise should be discontinued.

Bobcats And Antelopes Tie In Peru State Invitational Peru State College, inspired by the running of Louis Fritz, fought favored Kearney State to a draw Saturday as the Bobcats and Antelopes tied for the championship of the Peru State College Invitational Cross-Country Meet.

The two sister institutions scored 31 points each, easily outdistancing Doane College's 101 and John F. Kennedy's 110 points. Fritz, slicing 20 seconds off his old Peru State four-mtle course record with a sizzling 20:17, won the meet.

A. D. Benson, Wayne State, finished second with a time of 20:22 but did not figure in the scoring since he was the only Wayne State runner to compete.

Al Schneider, Kearney State, was third with the time of 20:40.

All NCC Team Has Four Bobcats Four members of the Peru State football team were honored by the World-Herald as all NCC selection. Peru led the conference in defense and placed two men on the defensive unit.

Two other players were honored as standouts on the offensive unit.

The players selected on the defensive unit were Jim Manning, end; and Phil Malone, tackle. On the offensive t e a m were Bernie Brown, guard, and John Gilmore, tackle.

Brown and Gilmore will return next year to try to earn repeat honors and bolster the Bobcat forward wall next year.

Those receiving h o n o r a b l "! mention were Peruvians Bill Witty, senior center; Bob Urwin, junior linebacker; Jim Kollbaum, freshman fullback, and Carl Satterfield, freshman quarterback.

Kearney State and Wayne State, co-title holders with Peru State picked up the most honors, placing 11 and nine members, respectively, on the all-conference units.

The victory for Fritz and the Bobcat tie was, in a sense, revenge. Kearney had defeated Peru 28 to 38 in the Nebraska College Conference meet at Wayne on October 30, and in that race A. D. Benson defeated Louie for individual honors.

Bruce Sheffield, Doane, paced his mates with a fifth place time of 20:46. John F. Kennedy College was led by Harold Nolan, 15th with a time of 21:40.

Other Peru scorers: 6th, Jim Watson, 20:49; 8th, Jim O'Donoghue, 21:08; 9th, Jim Sprague, 21:09; and 11th, Tim Hendricks, 21:18. Other Kearney scorers: 4th, Carroll Kinneman, 20:43; 7th, Dan Moore, 21:01; 10th, Warren Christensen, 21:13; and 12th, Gary Mierau, 21:28.

Bobcat Cagers Qpen Drills Ten lettermen return this year to bolster the cage outlook for the Bobcat basketball team. Returning monogram winnners include the five leading scorers and rebounders of last year's squad.

The returning players are: Dean Cain, Roger Capps, Mike Harmon, Ron Kroll, Bill Rinne, Jack Rinne, Ron Snodgrass, Bill Witty, John Chasse, and Dick Estes. Estes may not see action until later in the campaign because of a knee operation.

Other candidates include: Mike Castle, Richard Gibson, Wayne Heine, Jerry Higgins, Ron Jones, Bob Lovejoy, John Mcintire, Allen Pokorney, Leon Portrey, Bill Sanders, Carl Satterfield, Randy Williams, and Jim Waltke.

Coach Mcintire feels that the team will be stronger both offensively and defensively than a year ago. He also stated, ''The squad will have to improve because of, a tougher schedule."

SPORTS

By Dick Berthold Despite the losing season, the Bobcats considered the 1965 gridiron season far more successful than they imagined when it began. In nine games the Bobcats scored 113 points to 99 by their foes; this may be compared to the 1964 scoring of 69 points by Peru and 280 by the opponents.

The Bobcat defense played the key role in the' big improvement.

Last year the opposition rolled for 3591 yards compared to 1721 yards this season.

Jim Kollbaum led the Bobcats' rushing offense with an average of three yards per carry in 101 attempts. I):illbaum also led in team scoring with five touchdowns and 30 points. Total offensive leader was Carl Satterfield who rushed for 176 yards and passed for 731 for a net of 907 yards.

Bob Urwin led all Peruvians with 56 tackles and 32 assists.

Jim M~nning was credited with 47 tackles and 32 assists; and Bernie Brown compiled 48 tackles and 24 assists. Phil Malone nailed 52 tackles and teammate, Sam Sadich, was credited with 43 tackles.

With the cager season officially opening Tuesday, Nov.. 30 against Tarkio, the Bobcats will try to improve their nine win and eleven loss season of last year. Returning lettermen include five quards-Jack and Bill Rinne, Dean Cain, Roger Capps, and John Chasse; four forwards -Bill Witty, Mike Harmon, Dick Estes, Ron Kroll; and pivot Ron Snodgrass. Harmon, with fhe best shooting touch on the club, led last year's scoring with a 16.5 average. He was followed by Snodgrass' 15.4, Estes' 14.0. and Cain's 13.5. Snodgrass was hampered last year by the effects of injuries sustained in an automobile accident. Estes, this ye a r, will be slow getting into shape due to a late September operation which removed cartilage from a knee injured in last year's campaign.

The schedule lists 11 h o m e games, seven road engagements and a three day tour to "The Top of the Nation Tourney" at Alamosa, Colo., during the Christmas holidays. On the schedule are five home NCC games and three away clashes. Also included on the home schedule is a two-night stand against what should be a very tough Chadron Eagle club.

Co-Champions Peru Harriers (Continued from page one) this is Peru's finest season in cross-country history. The Bobcats will lose Jim Sprague, South Lyon, Mich., senior, and Louis Fritz, Verdon senior, even though Fritz has another year of eligibility remaining. Due to underclass promise and recruiting potential, the Bobcats can 1o o k forward to cross-country prominence in future years.

Bobcat Defense Was Outstanding

Misfits Capture Football Title

Although finishing with four wins and five losses, the Bobcat gridmen were able to share conference honors with Kearney and Wayne. Possessing one of the most formidable defenses in Bobcat history, the Bobcats were able to outscore their opposition, 113-99.

Because most of the nucleus of the team is returning, the outlook is for a much improved team in the 1966 season.

BY CHARLES RICHARDS The Peru State Bobcats, led the shooting of freshman ayne Heine, were able to down inspired alumni team by a ore of 95-94 in two overtimes Nov. 22.

After a slow start the Bobcats were able to post a 45-28 · halftime bulge.

The alumni, behind the shooting of Larry Rathe, Chuck Francis and Mike Roach, were able to whittle an 18 point Bobcat and :tie the game 75-75 at the end of regulation play. . Early in the first overtime, the former Peru State cagemen were able to go ahead. But the Bobcats, on key baskets by Jack Rinne and Heine, were able to tie the score once again at 83-83.

The key basket, however, w a s delivered by Dean Cain, who was able to find the mark with only one second showing on the clock and! force the second extra period.

In the final period, Heine's shooting and rebounding prevailed. He hit a pair of vital ii.elders in the last 34 seconds of play to assure the Bobcats of a victory over the inspired alumni team. Larry Rathe added the · final fielder of the game for the alumni with six seconds on the clock to make the final score 9594.

The Bobcat scoring leaders were: Heine, Rinne, Mike Harmon and Ron Snodgrass with 29, 17, 14, and 13 points respectively.

The grads were paced by Francis, Rathe, and Mike Roach, who were able to garner 18, 18, and 16 for their losing effort.

"Tarkio College piayed! well and deserved to win," Coach Pitts said. The Bobcats scored on the season's niost bizarre play. Sat. terfield fired a lateral pass in the flat . which Holliman dropped.

When no whistle sounded to end the play, Holliman scooped up fhe ball and scampered 48 yards to score before the Tarkio defense woke up. Peru outrushed Tarkio 2(}7 to 119 yards, but Tarkio's aerial game overshadowed Peru's 103 to 10.

The Bobcats, a 40 point underdog, battled the highly flaunted Lincoln Tigers under miserable ·conditions which hurt Peru's offense but also slowed the fas.t Lincoln backfield.

Victory Over Chadron The Bobcats had to travel across the state of Nebraska for their first victory in four starts.

The 21-0 victory spoiled the Eagles' Homecoming and Band Day. Coach Pitts commented on the excellent defense, but pointed out two weak points, offensive blocking and pass receiving. The Bobcats completed 5 of 21 for 171 yards while Chadron could muster only 5 of 26 for 32 yards. 'The Eagles outrushed Peru State W to 38 yards.

Wayne Beats 'Cats · ·A strong Wayne State team turned back Peru State 17-7 for Peru's fourth loss in five starts.

As Dick Berthold said in hi s sports column, "Wayne State's potent rushing game was picked to be better than ever with the return of their entire backfield from the 1964 team which ranked third in NAIA rushing and tenth in NAIA total offense." Wayne outrushed Peru 149 to 39 yards.

The Bobcats completed 8 of 22 passes for 104 yards while Wayne connected on 4 of 9 for only 37 yards. The defensive unit was praised for their fine work.

'Cats Top Hastings The strong ·Bobcat defense stopped Hastings College 20-6 for Peru's second win in six starts.

Following the game, Coach Pitts gave credit for the victo.17 t?;P(l·

ru's stout defensive forward wall. , Pitts also: ·.cited the, · 'd,eferisive. work of the linebackers. The Bobcats outrushed the Broncos 94 to 35 yards, but Hastings outpassed Peru 111 to 73 yards.

Peru Takes Doane Peru State stopped Doane 20-7 before a h u g e Homecoming crowd to bring their record to three wins and four losses. Coach Erv Pitts' Bobcats turned a Doane fumble, a blocked punt, and! a defensive stand deep in Doane territory into touchdowns in Peru's 44th annual homecoming game. Doane outrushed the Bobcats 207 to 177 yards, butDoane's four fumbles was a large factor contributing to their downfall.

Coach Pitts stated the Bobcat defense was outstanding.

Peru Beats Kearney Peru State evened their record at four wins and four losses as they held off Kearney State 14 to 13. This established the Bobcats as tri-champs of the NCC because they have an identical three win and one loss record! in NCC competition as do Kearney and Wayne State. Peru's defensive unit came up with the big plays throughout the con test. Peru outrushed Kearney 267 to 181 yards. The Bobcats completed 13 of 22 passes for 169 yards as compared to 7 of 18 for 109 yards for Kearney.

Loss To Washburn The Bobcats dropped their final gaine of the season to the Ichabods of Washburn 15-7. This left the Bobcats with a four win and five loss record for the 1965 season. The Washburn game was a rough-house affair in which the offieiating lost control. Coach Erv Pitts refused any quotes except for saying the 120 yards in penalties assessed against Washburn (compared: to Peru's 58) "is indicative of what happened in this so-called football game."

Nine seniors completed their college ball careers against Washburn University. These were: Floyd Goff, Dom LaRocca, Phil Malone, James Manning, Les Raine, Vince Sabatinelli, S am Sadich,- :Roy Windhorst, and Bill Witty.

Dr. Christ Presides Over NCC Meeting Dr. John C. Christ, head of the Division of Science and Mathematics at Peru State and president of the Nebraska College Conference, presided at the annual meeting held Saturday, Nov. 20, at the Lincoln Y.M.C.A. The NCC is composed of the four state colleges-Peru, Kearney, Wayne, and Chadron-and Hastings.

All the faculty representatives plus the coaches and athletic di~ rectors, who met Friday night and selected the all conference teams, attended the genera 1 meeting.

The major part of the meeting was devoted to the revisfon of the constitution. The football championship was officially awarded as a three way tie between Peru, Kearney, and Wayne. The problem of military service due to the drafting of college students was discussed concerning the rules of eligibility after discharge.

The election of officers· for next year was held and the results were: Dr. Owen, Wayne State, president; Mr. Stanley, Hastings College, vice-president; and Mr. Ingram, Kearney State, secretary-treasurer.

Harriers Smash J. F. K. College 20-41 The Peru State freshman cross-country team out-distanced John F. Kennedy College of Wahoo 20 to 41. The Bobcats placed first, third, fourth, fifth, and seventh.

Ron Jones, Red Oak, Iowa, paced the Bobcat victory. Ron set a new J. F. K. four-mile course record and a new Peru State freshman four-mile record of 21:23.

Other Peru State scorers: 3rd, Van Allen, Nemaha (22:28); 4th, Dan Trout, Lewiston (22.:50); 5th,, Jim Bohl, Auburn (22:51); and 7th, Phil Herbster, H oJ dreg e (23:59).

Presented By Peru Prep Peru Prep's Junior Class presented John Patrick's The Curi· Cius Savage in the College Auditorium on Nov. 23, under the direction of Mr. Robert L. Bohlken. There was an audience of over 150 in attendance.

The plot involves the commitment of a wealthy widow, Mrs. Savage, to a mental hospital by her greedy stepchildren. While staying at The Cloisters, Mrs. Savage encounters five delightful patients. Through their un'realistic view of life, Mrs. Sav'age's new friends provide a humorous tone to the play. In spite of the comedy, there are touching moments in the play which cause Mrs. Savage, and the audience to take a second look at .the ~alues of the "real" world.

The play reached a dramatic conclusion as all of the patients were pictured as the ideals which they imagined themselves to be.

Members of the cast included: Donna Henry, Bob Mullendore, Lois Lammle, Bob Milstead, Donetta Henne, Greg Baughan, Ron Blackwell, Nancy Adams, Laura Adams, Marilyn Moody, and Pearl Allgood. Mr. Bohlken's young son, Danny, made his de-· but in the final scene of the play.

Assisting in the direction of the play was Myrene Davis, and Mrs. Mary Anna Gnade costumed . the production. Among t h o s e who worked behind the scenes were: Kathy Sherman, John Kite, Jody Crabtree, and Ed Cos.

TBlS C0ULD DELP YOU GET. HOME FOR CIIBISTMAS -AND B.ACK

By Nancy Jarvis Statistics show that one out of every two drivers will have an accident during their driving career. This means the fellow standing by you will have a traffic accident sometime during his driving career, or the fellow beside him, ~! .

What causes traffic accidents? A recent survey indicated that three factors are involved fo traffic accidents: the car; the road; and the human. As a result of many studies, it has been estimated that the automobile is a causative factor in five to seven per cent of all traffic accidents.

The road is a causative factor in eight to ten per cent..

These two account for fifteen per cent of the total accident picture. The major cause then remains with the human, who is responsible for the other eighty-five per cent.

Why do drivers have traffic accidents? Three human factors greatly affect drivers. These are mental, emotional and physical.

Accidents don't "just happen." If you are a driver who is aggressive and intolerant, wp.o feels the other fellow is always wrong, and who acts with reckless abandon when driving a powerful car, check your attitude. In your hurry to get home for the holidays, there is a tendency to drive too fast and too long. Speed is a factor in severity of accidents and constitutes one of the main violations. Driving too long leads to fatigue.

Strong emotions have a definite effect upon your driving ability. If you are depressed, angry, or worried about some personal problem, let someone else drive. You can't afford to divert thought and attention from the driving situation because most accidents happen in a split second.

Anger, depression or any emotional state affects your ability to judge the driving environment until it is too late to react safely.

Physical fitness is important for safe driving. Inadequate sleep and rest leads to fatigue which is the cause of many accidents. Fatigue accidents can happen in broad daylight. Whenever you feel the least bit sleepy, pull up and rest, or change drivers. Changing drivers every 100 miles or every two hours is a good driving technique. Drivers who force themselves are literally the ones who never saw what hit them.

Alcohol and driving don't mix. Recent studies in one state indicated that sixty-two per cent of all one-car acci~ dents involved drinking. If you must drive, don't drink!

Play it Safe! Play it Smart! We want you back on campus after the holidays . . . . . . . all in one piece.

DELZELL HALL

By Bill Bowen lJelzell celebrated the coming Christmas holidays with a dorm party held on Sun:day night, lJecember 12, at 10:30 p.m. The refreshments were enjoyed by all the residents. lJelzell has sprouted all th e traditional signs of Christmas trees with small highly decorated trees, signs, and other decorations that can be seen throughout the dorm.

Somewhere on the second floor there is a mad stereo nut who plays a record of a woman's piercing scream that raises the hair on the back of everyone's neck throughout the dorm. That boy can produce more stereo realism than anyone around here had ever dreamed possible.

With the fast ap'[>roach of the Christmas Holidays that begins for us this Friday, I .hope that everyone will remember to drive carefully over the vacation and return to finish the semester.

Merry Christmas, Hap'[>y New Year, and a good: trir> home to everyone at Peru State College.

Renovation Brings Crisis To u. N. Talk The renovation of the Administration building has brought about many changes. None are quite as odd, however, as that of seeing the building so nearly vacated. Where once you visited Dean Melvin or the business office, now stand pipe, cords, ma. chin<?S, tools, and carpenters busy at work. Partitions have been .lowered, many rooms completely cleared, and essential classroom areas left to themselves.

In class, the occasional buzz of a saw or the sounds of the drill and hammer have caused little bother. The noted calamity was in Government 201 as the discussion of the U. N. was in its cli.max. A water pipe began to turn .and soon was separated from its connecting branch. A student or two was on alert. · A leak or two began, but didn t last long. A chair was moved just in time to avoid a gush of water from above. After slight confusion and a few wet feet ev. erything was back to normalfor a moment. Plaster fell from the side wall. More water gushed from the overflowing spout. The N. had enough of a problem for one day, and class was dismissed.

Nothing stands in the way of progress and when it involves a ·shorter class period, ,you'll find ·no one to complain.

Fine Arts Building Now Being Used To Capacity Myrene Davis Describes Interior Of Peru's New Fine Arts Building The Peru State physical plant has been enhanced by the completion of the new Fine Arts B~~g, Thll constrimtioll, of'th'e' buildi.hg began in the summer of '63 and the building·is scb.~uled for full use during the coming spring semester. - The struct~e was designed to house the facilities of the music, art, and speech and dramatics departments.

The two main entrances to the north and south open on to foyers containing benches for the students' relaxation. All of the rooms themselves are located around a large exhibition court, the height of which extends to the second story ceiling. The court will be used for art displays in ~ddition to the show case now located in the northern foyer beneath the staircase.

The music wing comprises the west portion of the building. Located on the first floor are the band and chorus rooms and several practice rooms. The recital hall, with a seating capacity of 214 will be used for recitals, small musical groups, lectures and speech and dramatic events which require no staging. All members of the music faculty have their offices in this wing.

The western half of the second floor contains practice rooms and

Siegner Attended Planning Meeting For Curriculum Dr. C. V. Siegner attended a planning meeting at the state capitol in Lincoln, Nebr., on Jan. 7th to discuss a course of study for junior and senior h i g h schools. He was one of the members on a committee of six to form a course of study in industrial arts, for pre-vocational and vocational education for junior and senior high and 2-year post (Continued on page two)

studios and two large classrooms which will be used by all departments. At present the administrative offices are located in the southern rooms. . This situation will be changed by September of '66 when the renovation of the Administration Building is completed. These rooms will then be used for offices and practice studios.

The east wing houses the departments of art and speech and dramatics. Upstairs are located one all purpose classroom, a n d art laboratory and a crafts shop.

The offices of the art faculty are also here.

The speech and drama facilities are found on the main floor, including one large classroom and offices for department faculty. A speech lab and listening rooms equipped with tape recorders and earphones will be available. A glass-encased recording st,udio with a stereophonic sound system is located in the classroom.

In addition to the occupancy of offices, some classes are being held in the new structure. The installation of some new equipment has not been completed, but Peruvians may look forward to classes and activities to be held in the Fine Arts Building next semester.

Mcintire Presented Citizenship Award Debate Season Is Mayor Jack Mcintire was pre- One Of The Best sented the 1965 Citizenship Award of the Peru Kiwanis Club at ceremonies held Tuesday evening, Dec. 21, 1965. The award, a bronze plaque, was presented by Don Carlile, a member of the club's selection committee.

Mcintire, best known as the head basketball coach at Peru State College since 19fr6, was elected mayor of Peru in May 1964. Mcintire's. basketball teams have done an outstanding job of keeping the name of Peru before the public. On Dec. 16, Peru State defeated Simpson College, and in so doing, Mcintire w o n his 150th basketball game at Peru State College against only 89 defeats.

Among the major achievements by the Peru mayor and his city council since they took office have been the reduction of the city's bonded· indebtedness; installation of mercury v a p or lights throughout the residential and downtown districts; improvements in the City Hall; and resurfacing of all city streets.

During Mcintire's administration, the city electorate voted to purchase outside electrical power. A recent ruling by the State Supreme Court has made it possible for the purchase of th i s power more economically th a n could be produced in the local plant.

Concerning the award, Coach Mcintire said, "About all I can say is that I am happy to have received it."

FRESHMAN ESSAY CONTEST The end of th!! Freshman Essay Contest is n e a rJ an. 26. Entries must be submitted to English instructors or members of Sigma Tau Delta or the English Club before this date. Remember - Wednesday, January 26!

The 1965 debate season proved to be a rather successful one for several Peru teams. Three tour· naments were attended; those held at Wayne State College, the University of South Dakota at Vermillion, and Northwest Missouri State College at Maryville.

The most notable achievement was attained by Chic Williams and Eugene Fitzpatrick, who won the "B" division tournament at Wayne State. This team won a trophy for the school, and each debater received an individual trophy.

In addition to debating, several members of the squad scored favorably in individual events. Receiving a superior rating in extemporaneous speaking was Tony Lopes. Myrene Davis received awards for radio announcing, discussion, and oral interpretation. Dan Bolin won recognition in oratory, and Dan Kudsen in oratory and discussion. A total of ten students participated in at least one intercollegiate tournament.

The second semester will find Peru's debaters expanding their study of forensics. Plans are being made to tour several area high schools to illustrate debating and other forensic techniques. The debaters will also take charge of the forensic portion of the district speech contest to be held here in the spring.

Melvin Attends North Central Meeting Dr. Melvin attended a meeting of the North Central Association of Secondary Schools in Chicago, January 5-7. During the meeting he talked with Dr. Elmer Clark and Dr. Richard Davis about the self-stud·y which the college is now doing in preparation for a graduate program. He also e~­ amined the North Central library of self-studies done by other colleges.

.J.>ED NEEDS VER$AME .STAfF

By Bill Bowen· '. ·• ·.. To ~ublish a good newspaper the staff must represent ii.JI 'aspects of college life and be capable of clearly and knowledgeably reporting on all the varied activities that .take place on campus. To provide good reporting, our staff must consist of reporters with knowledge and experience in every field dealt with by the college. Unfortunately, sometimes students tend to think of English 234, Beginning J~mrnalism, as a course designed only for English majors.

Consequently, it is my desire to clear up that misconception and recruit members for the staff of the Pedagogian.

Don't assume that in English 234 you will be treated as if you were writing for a graduate English course.

What we sorely need on our staff are athletes, musicians, drama students, photographers, history students, etc. Your grade will depend on the reporting you do for the Pedagogian. . If you have any interest in journalism, or if you would li~e to see your field more clearly represented, then contact your counselor and ask him about it. In almost any field you will find journalism, and the additional three hours credit, helpful in fulfilling requirements.

So if you have any interest in the newspaper, in news photography, in newspaper business management, or in some specific reporting field, just ask someone on the current staff. We'd be glad to answer your questions and help you in any way we can.

ELIZA .MORGAN HALL By Mary Ann Sharp With vacation over and the new year here, it seems that little has changed.. Books are open, the library is full, the campus is crowded, and announcements are piling high. Christmas eve brought two engagements to be announced. Marcia Cunningham became engaged to Mr. Jim Me·nefee of Menlo, Iowa, who has served in the U. S. Navy and is now working _in Menlo. Marcia is a.sophomore and is majoring in elementary education. She plans to work second semester and also. to work on plans for their August wedding.

Also, December 24, L a n a Toelle received a diamond from Steve Colerick, who is a junior majoring in social science at ·Peru. Lana is a sophomore and her major is elementary education. Both transferred , to Peru after attending Maryville. Judy Elsinger announces her engagement to Ken Boatman, who is a senior majoring in business administration. She received her diamond on January 8th. Judy is a home economics major and is a junior here at Peru. . Charlotte Hershberger w i 11 become Mrs. Larry Nedrow on January 29th in Falls City, Nebr.

Larry formerly attended Maryville for two years, and will begin his third year of college by attending Peru State the second

semester. They will live in Peru.

Two important items that have received much comment from almost every girl in Morgan Hall have been called to my attention for publication. The first is the fact that since the week before Thanksgiving vacation, we have enjoyed little or no hot water in the dorm. This allows us maybe one or two hours a week to keep our washing and cleaning done.

If we can't brave the cold shower, a trip to the local gymnasium is necessary.

The other item, is the fact that though the cup disposal p o P machine is not particularly liked, it is greatly used. We would like to see other machines installed, such as the young men in Majors Hall are now enjoying. Majors Hall has candy, pop, SOifp, hot chocolate, and coffee mac@nes.

It's not a cry for equal rights.

The girls in Morgan Hall get hungry too, and tired of four flavors.

TEMPORARY OFFICES: The December 13 issue of the Pedagogian lists temporary quarters for those housed in the Administration Building. P 1ease note two changes in the listing: Dr. Boraas is in FA 216, Mr. Linscheid and Mr. Summers in FA 214. Although all administrative offices are out of the Administration building, some faculty members will remain in present quarters for a few days or possibly until the end of the first semester. All classes scheduled for the Administration building (except business education) will continue to meet in presentlyassigned rooms the remainder of this semester.

DELZELL HALL By Bill Bowen In Delzell everyone is getting · ready for the fast approaching finail. · tests, but· even with all the preparations for them, the interest seems to be in the vacation that comes immediately afterward. They all seem to be far more interested in getting some sleep and in general taking it easy before the next semester starts.

Delzell has made some changes in the lounge area with the removal of the pop machine to the basement game room, and the addition of a new candy. dispensing machine.

Some Delzell residents have been spe~ulating about the couch that is missing in the lounge.

The couch is the victim of an apparrent manufacturing flaw, and has developed a severe case of collapse in the center section.

For those readers about to fall into the painless torture chamber called finaJ examinations, I have but one wvrd, "Banzai."

Jarvis Attends Civil Defense Conference On Tuesday, Jan. 11, Dee V. Jarvis, Civil Defense instructor at Peru State, attended a Civil Defense Conference for County and Municipal Officials held at Auburn, Nebraska.

The three-hour conference was designed to bring together public and community officials to discuss the current Civil Defense program; to develop a better tinderstandirig of their responsibilities, required actions, and procedures to increase their abilities to cope with major emergencies; to explain assistance available through state and federal government agencies; and to present, in a stimulating manner, the issues and facts behind Civil Defense.

The program consisted of films and talks on shelters, the status of Civil Defense, and developing operational readiness in the community.

Lucia Hawkins as "Bess," Leverne Hutcherson as "Porgy" and Avon Long as "Sportin' Life" gave the usual interpretations to their roles, and showed a more than working familiarity with Gershwin's music. Mr. Hutcherson's performance as "Porgy" seemed rather stolid how· ever, and at times, unambitious.

The earliness of the hour may have been, in part at least, the cause.

Certainly Mr. Long's portrayal

Library Special Collections Room

BY DONNA VAN BUSKIRK A number of cards in the card catalog have "S.C." by the call number. This stands for special collections which are kept in a sparate room on the main floor of the library. It contains all the Peruvians from 1908 to the present, the Peru Pointers from 1898 to 1961 and the back issues 'of the Peru Pedagogian plus the current copies. This is the perfect place to spend an afternoon browsing, just for fun, through some of the old Peru annuals or to look at the news in last year's college newspapers.

Being rich in Peru's history, the special collections room also contains many of the commencement week programs back to 1910. Photos of the campus and professors of past years are interesting and show the changes Peru has undergone. Of equal in· terest is the original manuscript of The Shadow of a Rock by E. R. Conkle, a Peru State College graduate. This is a scrapbook with all the notes, memos, etc., of first ideas the author had and it shows the various stages the play passed through.

DRAMATIC CLUB The January meeting of the Dramatic Club was held at 7:00 in room 105 of the Fine Arts Building, which will be the regular meeting room for the club.

of "Sportin' Life" was lively, hilarious in part and totally convincing.

Miss Hawkins' voice w a s pleasant and well suited to her performance, although it seemed to sometimes get out of hand.

Her "Bess" was a delight, and her facial movements, particularly in "Bess, You Is My Woman Now," made up for lack of scenery, costumes and orchestra.

The entire performance was a continuous flow of enjoyable music; the numbers were sung pleasantly and the repertoir showed a surprising change of pace in its variety.

President Myrene Davis led the group in a short discussion of the value of attending more plays in the future as a project.

Several members of the club, along with Mr. and Mrs. Moore, Mr. and Mrs. Bohlken, Mrs. Gnade, and Mrs. Gergen, saw "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf," Dec. 7 at the University Theatre.

Governing Board Of Nebraska State Colleges

FEBRUARY 21. 1966

Bobcats Conference Champions For Sixth Time In Ten Years Coach Jack Mcintire and his basketballers are the 1966 N.C.C. champs. For the sixth time in the 10-year tenure of Coach McIntire he has brought the Bobcats conference championships.

Facing what many thought an impossible task, Peru State ,captured Friday night's clash at Peru, 73-64, and Saturday night's fray, 34-68.

In nailing down the 1966 basketball title, Peru State's Bobcats established themselves as contender to represent NAIA District 11 in · the Kansas City tournament.

SEATED, left to right-Henry I. Freed, Chadron: Dr. Gordon Shupe, Wayne, president of the board; James M. Knapp, Kearney, vice-president of the board: Bernard M. Spencer, Nebraska City.

STANDING, left to right-E. K. Yanney, Lodgepole; Dr. Francis J. Brown, Genoa; Dr. Floyd A. Miller, Lincoln, commissioner of education and ex-officio member of board.

Governing Board Members Give Generousij Of Their Time And Talent To Education Students, faculty, parents, and everyone interested in higher ed· ucation in Nebraska owe a great debt to the present Norm a 1 Board members and their prede· cessors. In the last ten years, the Nebraska State Colleges have seen their greatest growth in every way. The members of the board have given generously of their time and ability to direct a many sii<l.€d program of tremendous development. As the institutions grow, board member responsibilities increase.

It would be interesting to know how many hours have been spent and how many miles have been driven by a long time board member such as A. D. Majors, who resigned in December 1965, or Mr. Bernard M. Spencer, who has served since 1955. We doubt that even these gentlemen would have a very exact idea how much work they have done. But there is n-0 doubt that these gentlemen and the other board members, have been of great service to the youth of Nebraska.

Six of the seven members of the board are appointed by the governor with the advice and consent of the legislature. The seventh member is the state com· missioner of education w h o serves ex--0fficio. The appointed members serve for a term of six years. None of the members receives any compensation other than actual expenses incurred in the performance of their duties.

The board is charged with responsibility of the general con· trol of the state colleges at Chadron, Kearney, Peru and Wayne.

Mr. Freed of Chadron has been

a member of the board s i n c e Dec. 1960. He is president of the Midwest Furniture Company of Chadron. Dr. Gordon Shupe has been a member -0.f the b o a r d since Jan. 1963 and is a practicing dentist in Wayne. Mr. Knapp has been a member of the board since Jan. 1965 and is a practicing attorney in Kearney. Mr. Spencer is the senior member of the board having served as a member of the board since Jan. 1955 and is the immediate p as t president of the board. Mr. Yanney has been a member of the board since April 1961 and is president of the Lodgepole State Bank. Dr. Brown is the newest member of the board having been appointed in January of this year to serve out the unexpired term of Mr. A. D. Majors of Omaha who resigned in December, 1965.

Dr. Miller, as state commissioner of education and an alumnus of Peru State College, has been a member of the board since April, 1962.

Nebraska's Best College

The Friday night opener was a tension packed contest. The score at intermission was 33-25 with the Peruvians on top. The game had been tied six· times and the lead had changed hands on an equal number of occasions.

Midway through the second half Chadron came back to take a brief 53-52 advantage, but seconds later Ron Snodgrass put two points on the score board which put Peru back ahead to stay.

The Bobcats gained the 73-64 victory on the strength of their reb-Ounding, outgrabbing the Eagles 55·40. Friday night's scoring leaders for Peru were Mike Harmon with 18 p-0ints and Ron Snodgrass with 16. Big Joe

Johnson led Chadron with 17 points.

Mike Harmon and teammate Ron Snodgrass, powered the Bobcats to victory with respective 24 and 23 point productions in the Saturday game.

Harmon's 16-foot jumper bl'oke a 47 -all tie with 18:11 to go in the game and Peru was never behind again. Harmon 1 a t e r scored seven straight points to propel Peru to a 62-55 advantage with 12 minutes to go. Chadron's last gasp came minutes later when they moved back to trail 60-64, but a pair of fielders

by Dean Cain, broke the back of the rally.

Leadership Workshop Held On Campus A Campus Leadership Work9hop, sponsored by the Nebraska Council of Churches, was held at Peru State College on Friday and Saturday, Febr. 11-12. The purpose of the workshop was to promote better communication between the students and faculty. A planning committee composed of six students and t w o members. of the faculty made the arrangements for the workshop.

CONFERENCE

,

, ·

.

As reported elsewhere in this paper, a Campus Leadership Conference· sponsored by the Nebraska Council of Churches was held on our campus the weekend of February 11 and 12. It is, perhaps, important that we recognize the value of such conferences, and that the correct interpretation be placed on this one in particular, since it was the first on this campus. This conference was sponsored by the Nebraska Council of Churches to promote the development of communication, and the understanding of campus problems as seen by the students, faculty, and administration.

Representatives from every group on campus were present, and the real value of the conference was that it gave students, faculty members, and administrators a chance. to discuss and compare· thoughts, impressions, and ideas about our campus. More will be heard about this conference in the very near future and all of us should be alert and interested in the results. This conference and its effects can and will be a valuable experience for Peru.

Well, most of us are still here slaving away toward a degree of some kind: or another. Nevertheless, we wish to welcome the new girls this semester to Peru. ·Among them are Alice Massoth, majoring in business education; Mary Straight, a second semester freshman with a field of concentration in library science; and Dorothy Lazzaro, who is seeking her degree in secondary teaching. They are all transfers from Wayne State, Maryville, and Omaha University.

After ,the rest and relaxation of the semester break, the men of Delzell are back to the old grind of midnight hours, popcorn get-togethers, and a little studying for a sideline. Delzell suffered a slight loss when the number of dorm resi<lients dropped from 148 to 138 students at the beginning of second semester.

Residents no longer have to make the long j·ourney to the store to spend their nickel& and dimes for candy since the welcomed addition of a candy machine in the lounge. Since new exit signs have been added, no one will now have rlmiculty finding his way out of the dorm.

The dorm council held a meet.ing on Monday, Febr. 7, to discuss improvements on living conditions in the dorm. Plans were made to have a dorm party on Wednesday, Febr. 17, at 10:30 p.m. in the T.V. l6unge: · New residents were introduced d'uring the party. Quiet hours were discussed as an improvement for better studying conditfons.

The 5'5" brunette had been chosen as an attendant at both Valentine and May Fete dances in previous years, but she "just couldn't believe it" when the results of this year's voting were revealed.

Julie is a sophomore majoring in physical education with biology as a related field. She is planning to teach high school physical education after h er graduation from college.

When she was asked about her hobbies, Julie stated that swimming is her favorite, but she also enjoys horseback riding. Then with a smile she added, ''Studying in the library should be my hobby; I'm in ·there 24 hours a day." ····-·-····· ...

Sparked by the uncanny shootof Dean Cain, Peru came m as many as seven points wn to tie the score 36-36 at the lf on a fielder by Cain with four seconds left.

Kearney came back the second half and led 44-38 :before the obcats could get started. Be· hind the shooting of the Rinne :brothers, Mike Harmon, and Cain, Peru went ahead to stay with 16:10 left in the game. The Bobcats built up an eight-point lead before Kearney moved! back to narrow the margin to 69-71.

A free throw by Harmon and a tip by Snodgrass put the game out of reach for Kearney.

The scoring parade was led by Cain with 21, Bill Rinne with 18, and Jack Rinne and Harmon, who collected 12 each.

With both teams hampered by a soggy' floor, the first half wa~ nip ·and tuck all the way. · The Bobcats·. held ·a slim one,point lead at the half behind the sharp· shooting of Dean Cain and Ron Snodgrass. · The lea:di changed 10 times in the second half until Bill Buza of Doane broke a 67 "67 tie on a driving lay-in. Out in front by four with 2:32 remaining, Doane went into a stall which Peru found impossible to break. The Bobcats could garner only two points in the last 2:37 on a lay-' in by Bill Rinne with four seconds remaining.

Ron Snodgrass led Peru with 19 points and was backed by Jack Rinne, who hit 16. The loss left Peru with an 11-6 record, with Chadron invading Bolx:at territory Febr. 11-12.

Draft Status Of Peru Students Not Serious

Contrary to the common beliefs andi assumptions that have been floating around! lately, the draft status of those students now going to school is not as serious as one might think. On talking with F. H. Larson, registrar at Peru State, some· interesting facts were learned.

According to Mr. Larson, only two of the new prospects were required to cancel second semester work because of draft obligations. Those who had gone to

school here .the previou$ setn~· ter were not at all affected.

There have been some reports that grades would'il:J.ave some ef~ feet on· who ·is drafted and who is not. According to Mr. Larson, local boards have not written back to Peru for grade information, but some have written to findi the latest period of attendance of a few students. Mr. Larson said, "Students under Selective Service must be, enrolled in 12 hours, and ·at this time the students' scholastic average do not subject them to the draft." , As of this semest11r, there are 49 students on probation for the first time, 32 on continuing probation, and 15 new students on probation. There were 32 scholastic suspensions. Mr. Larson said, "Non-enrollees of the second semester were reported ·as such to their local boards." Mr. Larson went on to point out that there was a possibility of some students not even being affect~ by this. Such students would: include those over the age limit and those not physically fit.

SECOND SEMESTER ENROLLMENT DROPS Peru can no longer boast of the famous 1041 slogan. The annual mid-year drop has left Peru under the thousand mark once again. AccOJCddng to Special Services, the enrollment is as follows: freshmen 322; sophomores 183; juniors 1'59; seniors 186; and post graduates 10. This adds up to a final total of 861 daytime students. '11he number of evening students this semester is 101.

The enrollment has usually dropped at the second semester so the drop is nothing new. The mid-year drop in 1963-64 was 3% and in 1963-64 it was 12%.

There are many factors contributing to our drop this year with the main one being a graduating class of 50 students at mid-year.· OtheJCS are academic suspension, concern ·for the draft, lack·· of finances and a realization t h a t types of post-high school experiences other than college· .:tnay ·· prove to be more beneficial.

STUDENT WIVES MORRISON GUESTS Three representatives from the Peru Studep.t Wives were the gu!tsts at a Heart Fund Tea hosted by Governor and Mrs. Morrison at the Governor's Mansion in Lincoln, Nebraska, on Sunday, Febr. 6, 1966.

Norma Diddel, Artist Peru Teacher Since '29

BY LOUIS ROGERS "When I was five years old," Miss Diddel remembered, "I did my first painting after class. That decided that,'' she said, and since then Norma Diddel's first love has always been art and painting.

Professor Diddel started teaching at Peru in the fall of 1929, immediately after earning her BA at the University of Denver and MA at the Colorado State College of Education. However, teaching for her isn't a static matter, and her education didn't end with her last degree. She has done graduate work at Haryard University and Howard University and attended a workshop in graphic arts in Mexico. As an artist, she works primarily in watercolors, but has also d one work in graphic arts, prints, sculpture, etchings a111di lithographs. Miss Diddel has, in her own words, "exhibited many times • . . • . entering any and all exhibitions I was eligible for."

Most recently she exhibited some watercolors at the Suirimer Festival in Central City, Colo:, and her work has won many honors for her. She was the only artist whOse watercolor was Chosen to be hung at the Governor's Exhibit i.J:i Omaha :filu'ee years ago.

"I enjoy painting," she says.

"To me it's an ·interesting and productive activity, and I enjoy the results." The fact that she

paints mostly landscapes may be symbolic, for she has traveled throughout the country, ·and for years was a member of the Colorado Mountain Climbing Club.

"There hasn't been much of a change in teaching art courses," she thinks, "but the schools seem to have been over-influenced by the splash-dash type of painting -too little direction a111d! too much freedom. Students aren't well prepared; they can draw well, but can't make a picture come alive."

Editor's Note: This is the first in a series of stories on faculty members with more than twenty years of service here.

CAMPUS SCHOOL NEWS By Phyllis Groff 'I1he Campus School has been very active these last two weeks with basketball games, dances, and ·Other activities.

Is Here

Martha Washington Tea Has Silver Anniversary Dan Knudsen, Barbara Gordon, Don ramatic Club's 1966 spring production.

'Night Must Fall" Scheduled or Thursday at 8:00 P. M. "Night Must Fall," a psychoogical drama by Emlyn Wiliams, will be presented Thursday, March 10, at S:OO p.m. in the college auditorium. The play will be presented by the Peru Dramatics Club, under the direction of Mr. R. D. Moore.

"Night Must Fall" is a blood• curdler full of horror. It is the study of a· cold-blooded murder.

lay Is Advertised Advertisement for the AllSchool Play, to be presented March 10, is in full swing under the supervision of "Chic" Williams. "Chic" is the publicity ;manager and his assistants in•clude Nancy Larson, Jette A'porta, Mel Hester, Gene Fitzpatrick, Dick Berthold, and Phil Dorssom.

The publicity committee has sent personal letters of invitation and complimentary tickets .to the drama coaches of 45 area Jiigh schools. This letter of invitation also presents the drama coaches with some idea of what the play is about.

In addition, a poster advertis.ing the play and a picture of the east to be displayed at the school were sent, plus a letter to the students inviting them to the play and offering them a re·duced arlrmission price.

Posters and pictures advertising the play are to be displayed on the college campus, and 76 ···handbill posters will be distributed in the surrounding communities.

Several local radio stations will also advertise the play.

The play shows its audience a murderer at his murdering best and· certainly creates its share of shivers which are slightly coated with occasional humor:' Emlyn Williams knows how to frighten people and he does just that in "Night Must Fall." It is wholesale blood and horror and will more than be worth your while.

Peru State Band Presents Concert The Peru State College Wind Ensemble, under the direction of Gilbert Wilson, presented' a pretour concert for the student body and faculty on Wednesday, Febr. 23. The 42 piece ensemble presented the following selections: "Days of Glory" by John Cacavas; "Nordic Symphony" by Howard Hansen; "Ben Hur" by Miklos Rozsa; "Jim Dandies" by Harold Walters, a trumpet trio played by Dale Duensing, Ralph Shaffer and Bill Joiner; "The Sound of Music" by Rodgers and Hammerstein; "Exodus" by Earnest Gold; andi "Highlights of George Gershwin" Arr. by Paul Yoder.

Peru S.G.A. Schedules More Full Length Movies On February 27 the S.G.A. sponsored. its fourth full-length film, The Lisi of Adrian Messe11ger, in the Fine Arts Auditorium. It was an unusual murder mystery starring Tony Curtis, Burt Lancaster, Kirk Douglas, Frank Sinatra, and Robert Mitchum. The Ugly American, previously scheduled for Sunday, was not shown because of a shipping delay.

On Febr. 22, the silver anniversary of the Martha Washington Silver Tea was observed in the Student Union. It was sponsored by the Home Economics Club.

The practice originated from a 1940 trip several Peru coeds made to a home economics convention in the East.. During this trip, the girls visited Mount Vernon and copied a recipe, "How to Make a Great Cake." The recipe was found in a letter from Martha Custis to her grandmother, Martha Washington. It calls for five pounds of sugar and 40 eggs, among other ingredients.

Cakes made from this recipe have been served annually for the tea since its beginning in 1941, except for one year during World War II. Miss Edna Weare, guest of

honor at the silver tea, was the sponsor of the first Martha Washington tea. She was also the home economics advisor the year the trip to the East was made.

Each year the 35-pound cake has been rdecorated differently, and this year it was baked in the shape of a large open book. Ginnie Mullen and Mary Inglis decorated the cake with sugar bells, roses, and the inscription "Silver Anniversary."

Janice Wheeldon, Arlene Borcher and Linda Rogers, dressed in colonial costumes, served at the tea table.

Hostesses were Janice Johnson, Pam Bottomly, Marian Rex, Bobbi Armstrong and Linda Coslett.

Seated at the guest book were Grace Cook and Barbara Brandt.

Home Court Wins In NAIA Play-offs Send 'Cats To K. C.

Peru evened District 11 playoffs with a 75-65 victory over Doane 'On March 1 after a loss to Doane at Crete.

Loose ball handling and b a d passes hindered the Bobcats' showing in the first half. They left the court at the end of the first period trailing the Tigers 39-35.

As the second half started the Doane Tigers hit two quick baskets to give them an eight-point lead. For the next five minutes the two teams exchanged baskets. Then with 8:00 minutes gone in the second half Peru started a comeback drive. Key baskets by Dean Cain and Mike Harmon with 9:00 minutes gone gave the Cats the lead, which they never lost.

Peru's floor game in the second period had great importance in the victory. They made few mechanical errors during the last half. The Bobcats also played a tough defensive game after the intermission.

Dean Cain lead the Peru scoring attack with 26. Harmon canned 21 points, and Ron Snodgrass added 15. Wayne Heine blocked five Tiger shots while playing a fine defensive game.

Dennis Nelson of Doane took scoring honors with his 33 points.

Peru :State College basketball coach Jack Mcintire got an early birthday present as his Bobcats downed Doane College 8882 in the deciding game of the NAIA District 11 basketball playoffs, March 2. Mcintire, whose birthday falls on Monday, March 7, will take his cagers to the NAIA tournament in Kansas City, Mo., which starts March 7.

Peru broke ahead early in the game on Dean Cain's free throw to break a 6-6 tie at the 2:57 mark and never trailed aft e r that. Mike Harmon with 17 points sparked Peru to a 47-37 halftime lead. Doane edged to within five points with 14.5'7 remaining on foe clock. Dean Cain sparked Peru ahead to safety with 10 straight ''Points from 10:39 to 7:21.

Cain hit 16 points in the second half to gain top scoring honors with Mike Harmon at 24 points apiece. The losers' h i g h scorer was Dennis Nelson with 31 points. Peru out-rebounded the Tigers 55-40.

VANDALISM MUST STOP Recently, vandalism has appeared in the parking· iots at Peru State College. It is hoped that willful destruction or defacement of property will cease. Several students have reported gas stolen, beer bottles broken over their cars, aerials broken, hub caps kicked in, and tires slashed.

These unlawful acts have been brought to the attention of President Neal S. Gomon, and plans are being made to stop vandalism. President Gomon has seen to it that more lighting will be provided in the parking lots, and that upon certain nights a policeman will patrol the parking lots throughout the night. Anyone seeing an act of vandalism should report the vandal to the college authorities immediately.

President Gomon stated, "Any vandal caught will be fittingly punished."

-By Walter Rimmer TO THE EDITOR OF THE PED I .was really disturbed when I read your editorial and the news item concerning the CAMPUS WORKSHOPS, lead by the Nebraska Council of Churches. I am sure that the college students are not familiar with the real purposes of the CAMPUS WORKSHOPS; therefore, I would like to acquaint them with the facts as received from a minister: These CAMPUS WORKSHOPS are intended to: 1. explore the Campus Ministry.

2. learn of Campus Ministry from other denominations.

3. listen to leaders who have ideas on Campus Ministry.

The reports being spread on the Peru Campus are not in keeping with the above goals and would defeat the purpose for which the CAMPUS WORKSHOPS are intended.

Any deviation from these goals has no place on this campus.

If, however, these goals are followed on the Peru Campus, then I can see the future of· the CAMPUS WORKSHOPS. ...:..Frieda Rowoldt LET'S STOP LITTERING Littering is a subject overworked to the point that very often the intent is lost in the volume of material. On our own campus littering and its results are a constantly recurring problem. All too often the debris that students and others leave all over the grounds piles up and destroys the beauty of an otherwise beautiful campus. I realize that I run the risk of seeming like a preacher by bringing this subject up again, but if each of us would take the time to throw in the trashcan that cigarette, candy wrapper, or scrap paper, our campus could be a great deal cleaner, and a far more beautiful than it is. ...., Every time I see some litter around the dormitories, or any place else, I seriously wonder. why it has to happen. I realize that every one litters unconsciously at times, but if we could all stop and think for a minute before we throw away anything, we could certainly do something about the mess on our campus. Without demanding that anyone stop doing anything, I just hope that every one of us on this campus will decide that it's worth the effort to keep our campus clean. · -By Bill Bowen

The big week is finally here for the Peru basketballers. Five boys from :M:ajors making the journey to Doane are Bill and Jack Rinne, Bob Lovejoy, Leon Portray, and Bill Saunders. :M:any dorm residents have matle plans to make the trip to Doane.

Mr. and Mrs. J. Monger came to Peru from Ava, Mo., to see their son Bart. Somehow, J i m Guilliat impressed Bart's parents, so he was invited out for dinner with the Monger family.

Majors was very well represented in the musical tour to Iowa. Four members of our dorm are on. the Dean's honor roll. Included in the group are Bill DePetro, Dave Hensley, Mike Wallis, and Charles Adams.

A coffee was held in the dorm lounge honoring our new substitute dorm mother, Mrs. Philips. :M:embers from the Administrative Department greet.ed Mrs .

Philips.

Ed Harned and! Steve Broderson were involved in separate car accidents during the weekend. We are hoping for a speedy recovery for these two boys.

Spring fever has set in early now that the days are getting longer and vacation times are fewer and farther between.

Some of the girls are rushing the season by taking hikes and· going on picnics. Others found enjoyment in flying a kite, which was nearly disastrous to Mr. Summers, who happene:dl by when they were in the process of getting it into flight. Besides a canasta craze among card sharps, everything has b e e n pretty much the same.

A committee of three w a s formed by Barbara Gordon, Carolyn Price, and Bonnie Anderson to take suggestions on how the girls would like to spend the dorm money. So far the suggestions made were: to purchase a colored T.V. for the lounge; a water softener; or to build an enclosed patio with a barbecue pit on the south side of the dorm.

This would also be ideal for sun bathers.

Pat Knippelmier's fr i en 'd s helped her celebrate her birthday on Febr. 25 by taking her to supper at Fetty's in Nebraska City. Other birthday celebrants, some receiving dorm parties, were ~athy Black, Febr. 9; Pat Wheatley, Febr. 8; Lucy Sporer, Febr. 22, and Dawn Nebola, :M:arch 4.

Every Saturday afternoon the Peru city hall is the setting for dance lessons given by Patty Bindrum. She gives two onehour lessons starting at 1 o'clock in the afternoon. She has a total enrollment of 26 children ranging from ages of two through 12.

Janice Hauk, a former Peruvian, was a recent visitor at ·the dorm for a few days. Future plans will take her to Michigan, where she plans to finish he r college education.

Recently at Chadron State College, representatives of the

U. S. Peace Corps were on pus to interview and talk interested students. These re sentatives had served with Corps in India and South Am ica.

At Chadron State, as well at many area colleges, the s ond semester enrollment is 1 than that of the fall semester.· is assumed that at many c leges the draft forced stude into college last fall who di really want to be there, and a er the first semester, many these students left.

At Wayne State in Way Nebr., on February 27, 28, :M:arch 1, "Carousel," the eel brated musical by Rodgers a Hammerstein, was presented the drama and music depa ments.

Wayne State recently play host to two Peace Corps vol teers also. These volunte had served in Colombia, Sou America, and Guatemala; the purpose at Wayne was to rel experiences and enlighten pr spective volunteers about th Corps.

Nebraska's lieutenant gover nor, Philip Sorensen, was a r cent guest of the Wayne Sta Young Democrats.

Over 1,000 Central Misso State stu~nts have donat blood in support of U. S. Servi Men fighting in Southeast Asia Also at Central Missouri State on March 13, "King of the Road' Roger Miller and the Good! Tim Singers will appear.

On Febr. 17, at nearby Tarki College, the Student Cente Board and the Student Counci presented the !Cingston Trio a two-hour concert.

Louis Fritz Makes ,Cats Second Place ·All-American Team In Oma ha Meet Louis Fritz, Peru's cross country ace from Verdon, was named Febr. 24 to the 1965 All-American NAIA cross country team.

The All-American honors are the first for any Peru athlete since Bob Lade won Little AllAmerican football honors in the early 195-0's.

"Lou" was selected on the basis of his brilliant 1965 season performance and his 14th place finish in the NAIA cross country meet in Omaha on November27.

Fritz's high finish in the national meet helped Peru to third place in the national team standings.

The Bobcat harrier consistently bettered existing Bobcat recordis during the 1965 season, lowering the school four mile course record to 20:17, 37 secondS off the fastest four mile record ever run by a Peruvian, and the old record was also held by Fritz.

Fritz took 45 seconds off the Peru State three mile course record, breaking his own mark five times to move the mark from 16:06 to 15:21 during the course of the season.

The Verdonite holds the Peru indoor mile record of 4:25.7 set last year.

Gals' Basketball ANovelty Here Wayne handed confere.nce champion Peru her s e c on d league loss on February 23 at Wayne. Back home a group of Omaha girls were dazzling the female sector of Peru on the basketball court.

The girls from Omaha demonstrated fine ball handling and uncanny shooting eyes as they downed the Peruvians 51-22. '.Dhey play in a CYO League and call themselves the HasBeens. , Coach Tim Hanahan of the HasBeens said the girls played only in the league until this game. "They wanted this game as a warm-up for the AAU tournament," he sai:d.

e l )

t

Since Nebraska high sCJhools are forbidden to participate in interscholastic basketball for girls, this game was quite an unusual sight for this area.

The HasBeens held a slim 2113 lead the first half but exploded for 31 points the second half while Peru could manage only 9. Numerous steals, interceptions, and lack of experience proved to be the difference. Although the Peru girls had the height advantage, they couldn't control the boards.

Sharon Brown, who attended Peru last semester, lea:dl the Omaha scoring. She received support from Kelly Grint and Mary Gehringer.

Starters for Peru were Cirrol Chandler, Kathy Welsh, Nancy Muse, Myra Murren, Cherly Houseman, and Donita Speckman. Carol lead Peru in almost every .category as she showed both poise and experience. She also handled most of the scoring chores too.

i

Miss Bonnie Rutz, who coaches the ·girls, said, "I think that they did very well in spite of their lack of experience." The girls will travel to Lincoln for a game against Doane Febr. 26.

Peru opened the Track campaign with a second place finish at Omaha Febr. 18. They lagged behind Omaha U. 62-551h while Nebr. Wesleyan scored only 331h.

The meet went right 'Kiown to the wire to decide the victor.

With only the mile relay remaining Peru trailed Omaha 57-551h.

The Bobcats failed to score in the final event which proved the deciding the points.

Things looked bright for the young tracksters who are lead by a relatively young group. All four places were garnered in the pole vault and the first three and a tie for fourth in the high jump.

Freshmen proved to be the domineering factor in these t w o events. They accounted for five of the eight places in these.

The Bobcat track team nabbed a second\ place finish in its first indoor rr{eet of the year. The 'Cats accumulated 55% points compared to first place Omaha University, who had 62; and Nebraska Wesleyan, who finished a weak third with 331/2 points.

Hastings avenged an early season loss to :Peru Saturday, Febr.

19, by ma:riching past the newly crowned champs 100-69. T hi s proved the big upset of the week because Hastings had b e e n dwelling in the cellar of the conference with no wins in six starts. The Broncs' victory was the initial loss for ·the Bobcats in conference play this season.

Hastings had the hot hand throughout the game and also dominated the board play. They hit exactly 50% of their floor shots. They were led by freshman Glen Mays and sophomore Dick Beck. Both of these bi g boys hit 27 points. Mays proved to be the big man on the boards as he continually got the good percentage shot with numerous rebounds and tip-ins.

The Cats hit better than 40% of their shots but were not good under the boards. Their ineffectiveness was· partially due to losing Ron Snodgrass because of fouls with 15 minutes remaining in the game. Ron, who ha:d been the leading scorer, left with four points and four rebounds. Jack Rinne fouled out with 11 points to his credit, just seven minutes later.

Peru was down 45-30 at halftime and couldn't regain the deficit even with the hot hand! of Mike Harmon. He was the bright spot in the Bobcat attack as he hit a torrid 67% the secondhalf.

He finished the game as the lea~­ ing scorer with 31 points while hitting 11-20 from the floor.

Mike also lead the Peru rebounders with 15 caroms. Wayne Heine added support with 11 points and nine rebounds.

Both teams popped in 72 % from the line, but Peru was handicapped because they shot only half as many free thrqws as Hastings. The Broncs hit 2.6-36 while Peru hit 13-18. The defeat leaves Peru with a 6-1 record in the conference.

Doane Defeats Peru 73-62 At Crete

Junior High Beats Table Rock 37-18

Too short to look "Basketball Joe" in rthe eye, Doane was still able to bring the State N.C.C. powerhouse champs down to size Monday night, Febr. W, at Crete, Nebraska. Free throws and Doane's ability to break the Peru press helped cement a 7362 victory over Peru. Doane survived a rugged battle under the boards against the taller Bobcats·, and an enlightening performance by 6' 4" .center Alan Becher started the last half dash to victory.

Becher poured in 30 points, all but 6 of lihem in the second half.

Becher was enough to send the Tigers into an early secomli half lead of 49-41, and the Peruvians never caught up.

Mike Harmon, Wayne Heine, and Ray Cain were the pointsetters for Peru. The trio scored all but 12 points in the first of a three-game series.

Ron Snodgrass, Peru's 6'8" center, who was shackled by a cold shooting spell and foul trouble, ,gcored. only 6 points.

On Febr. 15 the Campus School Junior High Cubs defeated Table Rock 37-18. On March 1 the Cubs were victorious in their first game of the junior high tournament against Cook's "B" team. The final score was 55-5. Coach Pat Vendetti played all ten uniforme:dl players. Dennis Brady was high-point man with 12 points.

Other Peru scorers were: Jimmy Beatty, 11 points; Rodney Groff, 8 points; Pat Tynon, 6 points; Darrell Wininger and Allen Blackwell, 5 points each; Keith Biere, 4 points; and David Lammle, Richard Cox, and Arnold Allgood, 2 points each. On March 3 they matched their skills in the finals of the tourney against Brock.

Mr. R. D. Moore Reminisces:· About HOid Times" At Peru

BY MARY ANN SHARP In the four yearn that we attend Peru, we become well acquainted with the campus, the students, and the educational program. But we .do not always take the opportunity to know our faculty and how much a pa.rt they are of Peru itself and its interesting past.

Now head of the division of Language Arts, R. D. Moore has seen much of Peru's development and has played an important part in it. He began his own education in Hanna, Oklahoma, and attended a campus school at East Central St. College in Ada. When seventeen, he taught in a rural school, but went on to attain his bachelor of arts and bachelor of science degrees. Later he acquired his masters degree in philosophy from the University of Wisconsin.

After holding several positions in Oklahoma and Kansas, he signed a contract with Peru in 1937. He noted that during the early 1940's very few students attended Peru. because of the war. During this time, the college offered courses for training in flying, and an air strip was built down along the river bottoms. When the Missouri threatened to overflow its banks and ruin the strip, the people of Peru, along with students and faculty, worked to sand bag the levies and save the land. For man y years after that an "Old Man River Days" was celebrated to commemorate the saving of much farm land and the ties between the town of Peru and its college.

Mr. Moore rel?-ted that the first student activity center was in the basement of the Avenue Store. It was named "Bob Cat Den" where the bobcat you find today in the Student Center trophy case was kept caged. The cat was fed "steak compared to our hamburgers" and taken to all games and outside activities on a leash.

Later a "College Shop" was also opened in a house right off campus, serving meals and cold

drinks. If rightly recalled, the young caterer's name was Jack Mcintire, who seems still to be around here somewhere also.

Most of his work is spent with coaching now, however, unless he still cooks meals in the 1-0cker room. Many experiences such as these all make up a part of Peru's past and the things Mr. Moore has witnessed here.

Twice Mr. Moore left Peru to instruct in other states, but he returned because of what Peru had come to mean to him. Th e years he has lived here he considers worthwhile and satisfying.

Peru State's graduates can be found all over the United States, and his personal contact w i t h many of those graduates he believes to be one of the most rewarding aspects of teaching..

Mr. Moore has seen hundreds of men and women enter the field of teaching and many who have found success. It is with the instruction and guidance of faculty as devoted as he that we too hope for success and as much satisfaction from teaching as he has<'gained. He is one of the faculty who have helped to make Peru what it is.

Editor's Note: This is fhe second of a series of four features on faculty members with over fwenfy years service here.

AReviewer's View Of "Night Must Fall"

BY DOUG ANDERSON Thursday evening, March 10, the Peru Dramatic Club presented the Emlyn Williams :play "Night Must Fall."

The cast of the play was obviously suffering from some opening night jitters and dosing night nostalgia. This is always the problem of one-night stands.

It is unfortunate that the show was done in the British dialect of the shires rather than in standard British diction. I detected Cockney, Yorkshire, and Lancastershire dialects in the Nebraska ·cast. The ability to hear (even the best Rex Harrison standard British diction) with the acoustical conditions of THAT auditorium is next to impossible. Why !didn't they put a ceiling on the set? Our midwestern ears are not attuned to rural England speech; therefore much of the play was lost.

However, the real and only valid gauge of a play's success is, "Did the audience enjoy it?"

Here I must say, "Yea, yea!"

The pacing was superb and the suspense builds were masterful.

Sitting in front of me were two young ladies who were really carried away by the suspense.

One suddenly moved, the other screamed, and then the first one jumped and screamed. I wonder if they also shared the same Alka-Seltzer tablet?

DAN KNUDSEN, as Dan, was excellent. Particularly impressive was his ability to stay in character all the time. He displayed the required quality of a truly fine actor, spontaneity.

Even though he had: been over the lines and action many times, his timing and reactions were as if he had heard it for the first time. A "well done," Dan. DOROTHY BOCK and BARBARA GORDON (note-alphabetical order) as cook and maid did a fine job of scene-stealing.

Professor Moore may not approve, but I was delighted by the little extras added by these girls to their parts. Even though I had trouble understanding them, little was lost because they acted out their parts.

BILL BOWEN, as Hubert Laurie, did such a steady job that one might almost forget that he was around. This is exactly what Hubert is, always around, but not remembered. Bill acted this part so well that I almost forgot him.

MYRENE DAVIS, as Mrs. Bramson, was a bit too drab for my liking. To me, Mrs. Bramson is a more vivacious old bat (woman) than Mrs. Davis played her. Her dress was too dull and: her character, while strong, was not domineering enough. However, as the play progressed, things got better. Her scene with Dan (just before her demise) was well done. Mrs. B. is a tough part! What with that darn wheelchair to contend with, not only because you sit in it, but also because of the terrific jams and fender-benders with furniture, it is an awkward prop.

'Soldier-author Robin Moore, of "Green Berets" fame, lee· tured recently at the French Memorial Chapel at Hastings.

Mr. Moore, author of the best seller The Green Berets, spoke on the "Three Faces of Subversion," and was sponsored by the Cultural Life Committee.

March 15-19 was designated as "Twrip Week" at Hastings. The coeds at Hastings assumed the role reserved for the men on campus and: were obliged to carry books, open doors, drive the car, pay for dates, and! walk dates home if necessary.

Moliere's "The Imaginary Invalid," slated for performance on March 11 and 12, was to be presented by the Hastings Thespians.

During the first part in March, "Medea," under the direction of• Dr. John Kirk, opened at Kearney State.

The 1966 baseball campaign is under way for the Chadron State College squad. The team

has a 24-game slate, with 48 participants trying out.

Early in January, the Coed Dorm at Chadron State emptied during a night fire scare. The fire wasn't as serious as imagined at first, and: was the result of steam escaping from an over-heated steam boiler. The majority of the girls stepped from the dorm into the 25-degree temperature rather scantilly dad.

To t;h.e northwest of us, at Midland Lutheran College in Fremont, Nebr., 37 Midland seniors and special students are practice teaching at nine Fremont area schools.

At 6:30 on Febr. 14, the theme was "Goodbye, Craig" for 24 McCook college girls dressed in black. The 24 girls staged a funeral for Craig G. Fish, the pet goldfish of two Brooks Ha 11 coeds.

CORRECTION In the March 7 edition 'Gr the Pedagogian it was stated t h a t "Chic" Williams was the . advertising manager for the AllSchool Play which was presented March _10. This is incorrect.

The advertising manager w a s Gene Fitzpatrick, with "Chlc" Williams being the assistant director.

The N.A.I.A. tournaments attracted many Bobcat boosters.

The big motto in the dorm was, "Kansas City or Bust!" Many of the girls made it . to the big game but the latter part of their motto also seemed to come true when they returned back to campus broke.

Maggie Slayter was the hostess of a shower given for Brenda McCarthy March 12 . in Lincoln, at the Cornhusker Hotel.

Anita Cox received a shower given by Marge Chilvers. Anita is gettmg married March 20 to Bill Heineman, also a student at Peru.

It is good to have hot water again. The new coil for the hot water heater was almost given up for lost. With washing hours back to normal, things aren't quite so hectic.

A candy vending machine was recently installed: in the dorm.

We are hoping for more vending machines in the future.

The third day was given to a tour of the naval base and followed by their return to Olathe, Kansas.

;Hagemeier, Holliman 'Shine At Kearney A record-breaking perform· ance by Jim Hagemeier in the 440 and a win by Curtis Holliman in the 75 nailed down 10 of Peru's 23 points in the Kearney State College Invitational track and field meet on March 5.

Hagemeier traveled a r o u n d the 220 oval twice to the tune of a :50.5 docking to knock two and three-tenths seconds off the old Peru State indoor mark set

by Roger Crook last year.

Holliman, a junior, sped through the 75-yard dash to turn in a :7 .8 clocking and a second Bobcat win.

The Bobcats' other 13 points were garnered by Tim 'Hendricks, with a second place finish in the mile and a third in the two-mile, and by Louis Fritz, wrth a third in the mile, and two fourth-place finishes in the mile and two-mile relay events.

Harmon All-Conference Leading Peru State in both rebounding and scoring, Mike Harmon earned his second berth on the NCC all-conference team.

The bruising rebounder blazed Peru's trail to Kansas City's NAIA tourney.

Mike led the conference in rebounding with 14.8 retrieves per game and also ranked third in scoring with 183 points. He and Wayne State ace Dean DeBuhr are the only repeat selections on the mythical "5."

In his three year career Mike has garnered 975 caroms and harvested 1270 points. This included 36 against a tough Wayne State team.

Three other members of the NAIA championship team received recognition for conference honors although they didn't get enough votes for the first team. They are sharp-shooter Dean Cain, junior Ron Snodgrass, and senior playmaker, Jack Rinne.

Morris Harvey Beats Peru In Overtime Morris Harvey College o f Charleston, W. Va., canned 19 points in an overtime period to eliminate Peru State College from her record:-breaking thirteenth NAIA Basketball Tournament appearance Monday afternoon, March 7.

It was a tip-in by Wayne Heine, with 11 seconds left on the dock, and an 18-foot jumper by Mike Harmon with one second left that sent the thrilling game into an overtime.

With Peru trailing by as much as 37-25 with 5:17 left in the first half, Jack Rinne, who got 16 of his 20 points in the first half, inspired the Bobcats to surge back to trail 45-49 at halftime.

Taking advantage of most of Peru's 20 turnovers, the Golden Eagles from Morris Harvey went into an 83-81 lead with 5:23 left in the game. Ken Minor scored to give Morris Harvey a 91-87 advantage with 24 seconds left.

The tip-in by Heine and jumper

by Harmon then sent the game into an extra period.

Dean Cain, Ron Snodlgrass, and Jack Rinne led the Bobcats wrth 28, 23, and 20 points respectively. Roger Hart and Gerry Martin led Morris Harvey's attack with 31 points apiece.

STUDENTS GIVE BLOOD On Tuesday, March 29, 1966 students from Peru St~te College donated blood to the Red Cross in Auburn to replace blood used by a student in recent open heart surgery. The drive on our campus was organized through the Kiwanis Club and headed by Dr. Darrell Wininger. Dr. Wininger worked hard on the drive and it was a success.

The students who donated blood felt rewarded by this simple act of helping out their fellow man. To those stuents, and to Dr. Wininger, this writer offers congratula1't.i6ns on a job well done, and seconds the thanks sent by the Red Cross. To those readers who didn't donate this time for any number of reasons, I ask only that you remember that someday you may need the kindness and interest of your fellow man. Please donate at the next Red Cross Blood Drive; you could help save someone's life.

To qualify as a candidate the student must not be on social probation, have at least a 5.00 grade point average, and be reasonably sure of returning for both semesters of the coming year. Seventeen members are chosen from the candidates, The first fourteen are elected as regular members.

The last ·three are associate members.

Each member is required to do his part for S.G.A. and the school. Regular attendance at all meetings is required.

Members also must serve on numerous committees. They should always promote the image of S.G.A. on campus, as well as representing their organization. Communication between other organizations and the S.G.A. is also accomplished by its members. · · ·When voting for S.G.A. representatives, the student .should remember to consider the need for good members, the responsibility, and the candidate.

Microbiologist Speaks To Convocation Apr. 6 Dr. Warren E. Englehard, Professor of Microbiology at the University of Nebraska, gave a lecture about the diagnosis of microbial diseases during the convocation period on April 6. The purpose of his lecture was to demonstrate the way bacteria and viruses cause. diseases and to discuss the methods employed to treat these diseases. Dr. Englehard made excellent use of slides and gave a good explanation of what one could determine from these slides to illustrate his points. The slides he used were made by his own technique.

Peru was able to get Dr. Englehard to speak to the students through the Distinguished Scholar Program and through the cooperation of the University of Nebraska.

PSEA To Elect

ELE<JrION APATHY

1n: the recent elections held by the Student Governing Association there existed a situation that points up a major problem on our campus. The $GA is composed of four.teen organizational representatives elected in the spring as well as several other class representatives elected in the fall. To elect the fourteen SGA representatives, the student body had a choice of only seventeen candidates. That didn't leave much of a choice for the few of us that felt it worthwhile to vote. It is a real shame that we can't have a little more interest shown in the one organization that truly represents the students.

It has been enjoyable to read the Student Voice published and distributed by the SGA, but it is a shame that the student body is ready to enjoy the results of hard work by the current SGA; but not ready to take an interest in the organization for next year. The only way that we will ever have a successful SGA that can operate as an active voice of the students is when we take the time and interest to make it one.

A memorial service for Professor and Mrs. Stewart P. Linsoheid was held Saturday morning, May 14, in the Fine Arts Recital Hall on the Peru State Campus.

Death claimed Mr. and Mrs. Linscheid Saturday, May 7, in a boating accident opposite Fancy Creek Marina on Tuttle Creek reservoir, north of Manhattan, Kans. Linscheid, 55, associate professor of English and faculty sponsor of the school newspaper, Pedagogian, 'and yearbook, Peruvian, at Peru State for the past 10 years, and Mrs. Linscheid, 54, left Peru the morning of May 7 for a weekend of boating, one of their favorite outdoor sports. Apparently, their boat capsized in a strong wind late Saturday afternoon.

Prof. Linscheid w a s born May 22, 1910, at Bristow, Okla. He received his bachelor's degree from East Central State, Ada, Okla.; and the following year Washington and Lee University, Lexington, Va., conProfessor Stewart Linscheid ferred the masters degree upon him. Since then, the Peru State faculty member had done additional graduate study at Washington and Lee, the University of Wisconsin, Madison; Oklahoma State Nniversity, Stillwater; University of Minnesota, Minneapolis; and the University of Coiorado, Boulder.

During his 30 years of college teaching, Professor Linscheid taught eight years at Oklahoma State University, Stillwater; three years at Seminole (Okla.) Junior College; seven years at East Central State College, Ada, Okla.; and two years at Wentworth Military Academy, Lexington, Mo., before coming to Peru in 19•56.

Mrs. Linscheid, the former Nevil Barrett, had taught third grade for the past 10 years in the 14th Street School in Nebraska City.

Survivors include two married <laughters, Ruth (Mrs. David) Ross, Pensacola, Fla., and Ann (Mrs. Jerry) Dean, Patterson, La.; grandchildren Vicky Leigh Dean and Teri Ruth Dean; Mr. Linscheid's mother Mrs. A. Linscheid of Ada, Okla., and his brother Bill Linsoheid of New York N. Y.; Mrs. Linscheid's mother Mrs. J. M. Barrett, Ada'.

Okla., and her sisters Mrs. J. B. Morey, Ada, Okla., and Mrs. A. D. Aldridge, Tallahassee, Fla.; and brother J. M. Barrett, Jr., Oklahoma City, Okla.

The daughters of Stewart and Nevil requested no flowers, but suggested memorials to the Peru Achievement Foundation.

One hundr-ed fifty Peru State College seniors will receive baccalaureate degrees at the 97th annual -eommencement, June 3, at 10 a.m. in the College Auditorium.

The Honorable Frank B. Morrison, Governor of Nebraska, will deliver the address to the degree candidates which include 48 .who completed degree requirements at the close of the fall semester.

Governor Morrison has been a frequent visitor to the Campus of a Thousand Oaks since being elected to office in 1960. He delivered the address for the dedication of the $1.4 million building program in April of 1961.

FROM THE EDIToWs DESK

.

It is with a great deal of sadness and regret that the editors of the Pedagogian dedicate this . last issue of the 1965-66 school year to Professor Stewart Linscheid, our faculty sponsor. The tragic deaths of Mr. and .Mrs. ·Linscheid shocked the entire campus, but the tragedy was perhaps felt more closely by those of us who regularly worked with him. Mr. Linscheid was not only our professor, but also our friend. This is not a place to eulogize, but at times like this memories seem insufficient. It is an understatement to say that Mr. Linscheid will be missed, . but we would like to mark the end of an era by professmg our profound sorrow at the loss of our leader.

TOP VALUE STAMPS (AAA Service)

Mcintire Basketball School June 6-11 second annual Jack Mctire Basketball School will be at Peru State College June rough June 11, according to Mcintire, head basketball ' h at Peru State College and rector of the school.

The school is designed to give ys, junior high through high hool, instruction in basic funmentals in the game of basetball.

Mike Harmon, Bobcat senior om Wood River, Ill., who holds -time Peru rebounding recrds and is second in all time obcat scoring, and Bill Rinne, eru junior from Burchard, who rred on Peru's fast break and ssing defense the past t w o seasons, will assist Mcintire in coaching the school.

Mcintire was chosen as state high school coach of the year in 1955 by the Lincoln Journal-Star and by the Omaha World-Her-

ald. In 1961 ,both newspapers selected him as state college coach of the year, and the Lincoln newspaper repeated this honor in 1963.

Mcintire, 10 years at Peru State, has coached six Peru teams to the Nebraska College Conference Championship and has taken four clubs in the last six years to the NA:IA tournament in Kansas City and in so doing he helped Peru State establish a national tournament participation record of 13 times.

Golf Team Closes Season

NCC Track At Wayne

The Peru State College golf team, under the coaching of Mr. Larry Ebner, brought their golf season to a close on May 13 at Wayne, Nebr., when the Peru linksmen competed in the Nebraska College Conference meet.

Freshman Arnold Johnston, Boys Town, and senior Louis Fritz, Verdon, took top honors Friday and Saturday for Peru State College as the Bobcats finished third in the four-team Nebraska College Conference track meet at Wayne State.

Johnston, a fourth place" winner in the pole vault, established a new Peru State school record by clearing 13-6, bettering by three inches the old record set last year by Charles Niemeyer.

Fritz gained Peru's· only victory in the meet with a 9:59.5 clocking in the two-mile run.""

Kearney State rushed to their 13th straight conference t i t 1e with a Whopping 141% points.

Chadron was second with 80, Peru third with 42, and Wayne fourth with 2l1h. Hastings College did not enter the meet.

The Peru State golfers felt the rugged results of a tough schedule and undesirable weather which endured most of the sean. The linksmen ended the season with the following results: St. Benedicts lllh, Peru %; Peru 14, Midwestern l; Northwest Missouri State 13112, 'Peru 1/2; Doane 10, Peru 5; Northwest Missouri State 12%, . Peru 5112; St. Benedicts 13, Peru 5; Peru 12%, Midwestern 2112; Creighton 9%, Peru 5112; Midland 6, Peru 6; Nebraska Wesley~n 9, Peru 2; Concordia 7, Peru.5; and the Peru squad trailed the field in final scoring at the Nebraska College Conference match at Wayne with a total of 319 strokes.

Coach Ebner ·believes the team deserves a great deal of credit for its good team effort and improvement this year over the 1965 season. Coach Ebner believed the team made a rather good showing this year when the lack of golf practice facilities at Peru are considered. Mr. Ebner stated that the golf team had to travel to the golf course at Nebraska City for practice. Coach Ebner believes the lack of golfing facilities at Peru certainly handicaps necessary practice sessions.

Dick Seybert, a senior at Peru from Atlantic, Iowa, paced the Peru squad this season with several blistering scores which earned him medalist honors on several occasions. Probably the highlight of the year was at the Nebraska College Conference match at Wayne when Seybert fired an impressive 32 on the first nine holes to tie the course record.

Mike Barsi, Larry Roder, John Gorges, Mark Wendt, Dave Fife, and Bill Daigle are other Peru golfers who shot well this season and deserve much credit.

Mcintire, during 21 years of coaching (11 high school and 10 college), has won 301 games and lost 150. He is past president of the National Coaches Association and a member of the select Helms 'Foundation Hall of Fame.

Inquiries may be directed to Coach Jack Mcintire at Peru State College.

PERU SPLITS WITH WAYNE

Peru State baseballers split an N:C.C. double header against 'Wayne State, 2-1 and 4-2.

Jim Tegelhutter carried the hopes to the N.C.C. crown in the first game by a 2-1 conquest over the Wildcats. In order for Peru to tie the crown, a double header sweep was necessary.

But Peru's hitting in the nightcap was not enough to overcome Wayne's four runs.

Dean Cain went the distance in the second game, not very artistically but effective. Wayne scored three. of their four runs in the first inning, enough to cut Peru out of the conference title picture.

Peru ended the N.C.C. in second place ·with a 5-3 record.

Financial Aid Now Availabl,e Washington, D. C.~Congress­ man Clair Callan (D•Nebr.) said today that qualified high school and college students now a r e able to secure financial assistance for their college education and vocationa1 training through "self-help" federal programs.

The Higher Education Act of 1965 permits a student to borrow from a bank-up to $1,000 per year. The repayment · is guaranteed by the federal government. The student pays 3 per cent interest and the government pays 3 per cent for students from families with less than $15,000 adjusted income.

For those above $15,000, the student pays 6 per cent simple interest. Repayment does not begin until after graduation.

The Economic Opportunity Act of 1964 makes available grants of $200 to $800 per year to students who are financially unable to meet college expenses. The Act also makes funds available for part-time work while students are in school.
