Why? Why does a university take time 

out in its work of educating youth to 
pry into its past? Why does Michigan State, 
with impressive programs, speeches and books, 
make such an event of its 100th anniversary?
Thomas Carlyle said, “Nothing that was 
worthy in the past departs.” And the Greek, 
Dionysius, is said to have defined history as 
teaching by examples.

It is in belief in the fundamental truth of 
thoughts like these that we hold up Michigan 
State and its history this year as a great ex­
ample; that we see in the thoughts and deeds 
of Michigan State not mere acts of transitory 
importance, but a way of thinking, a philoso­
phy that has demonstrated a clear answer to 
the needs for all people to learn to live to­
gether with a common purpose.

Michigan State has reached its greatness 
not just as an institution, but as the pace­
maker of one phase of man’s progress, a sym­
bol of concern for all men and all people. The 
fact that Michigan State stands today with the 
greatest represents its acceptance, and in that 
we may find hope for man and his world, for 
if man is willing to build on principles such 
as these, surely he will find his answers.

The great advances which we attribute to 
the principles laid down by Michigan State’s 
founders are not the work of State alone; a 
multitude of institutions and people have 
joined in them. But State carries the responsi­
bility of a leader and it is here, at State, that 
we should pause, in this strife-torn 20th cen­
tury, to seek in great principles the answers 
to great problems.

Thus in 1955 we point again to State’s 
one interest — the development of an edu­
cated man, a well-rounded citizen, one who, 
in the words of President Hannah, will lead 
as capably as he will follow. State has sought 
to bring forth men and women who will be 
model participants in a free society, who will 
share in the preservation of democratic ideals.
Because the people, in their wisdom, have 
adopted the results of the daring experiment 
at Michigan State to the whole of education, 
we speak of State not as one institution or one 
isolated thought. What has been done at State 
has been done elsewhere. And it is our inter­
est here to demonstrate why these things were 
worthy of duplication and development, and 
why the great principles which underlie them 
have not died — and must never die.

1855: Michigan p'

Build a college with

in 1855, the State of Michigan bought a farm 
and started a College on its back forty. The 
College flourished, and as more and more 
students arrived, the fences were torn down 
and the farm grew into a great university for 
the advanced study of Agriculture, Science 
and Art.

When the first students—there were 61 of 
them—arrived for the official dedication in 
the spring of 1857, the college was only a 
crude clearing in the wilderness of nature and 
the minds of men. Today, one hundred years 
after being established by the Michigan Legis­
lature on February 12, 1855, Michigan State 
College is a multi-million dollar institution 
on a 5,000-acre campus, attended by more 
than 15,000 students.

Michigan State College is a product of the 
mid-19th century, the time of the American 
romantic, of exploration, expansion and the 
development of a new sensitive United States. 
Its founders saw the College as further intel­
lectual glory for the state; others saw it merely 
as competition for the University of Michigan; 
still others—the majority—saw it as an oppor­
tunity for Michigan’s youth to enjoy the dream 
of the 1800’s, “simple living and high think­
ing.” The idea of the College’s founders 
appealed to the young people of Michigan 
and to their fathers, pioneers of the wilderness 
that was Michigan.

Joseph Rickelson Williams, sou of a New 
Bedford shipmaster, Harvard graduate and 
journalist — he helped found and edited the 
Toledo (Ohio) Blade — was a vigorous pro­
ponent of the idea that farmers should educate 
themselves and their children. He was presi­
dent of Michigan State in its first two years, 
but resigned in 1859. He was president pro 
tem of the Michigan senate when he died in 
1861 at the age of 53.

among its first students were the three Gun­
nison boys who lived near DeWitt, eight miles 
from the college.

Early the morning of May 31, 1857, they 
hitched a team of oxen to their farm wagon 
and set out over the dirt and plank roads 
to attend the dedication and opening of the 
College. On level stretches, the boys—James, 
Alfred and Warren—rode, goading the ani­
mals with a sharpened stick. Up steep hills 
they walked. On both sides of the road they 
saw land cleared by axe and fire.

This two-story brick horse bam, shown after its conversion 
to a carpentry shop, was one of the three original (1857) 
buildings at Michigan State.

ew day: Simple living and high thinking

Historic College Hall, from an 1857 photograph. Its roof leaked.

Workers rushed to complete the boarding hall, Saint s Rest, for the college opening in the spring 
of 1857. Stumps were left for the students.

They turned off the road near the present 
site of the Home Economics building, and 
crossed a broken tract, with hardly an acre 
cleared. They faced a desolate prospect. Three 
buildings, College Hall, Saint’s Rest and a 
red brick barn, known as “The College,” “the 
boarding house” and “the barn,” had been 
set up in a clearing. They were not finished. 
Around them were building rubbish, mudholes 
and blueberry bushes. Trees had been felled 
and underbrush cut away. The slashing had 
been piled and burned, but charred trunks 
and stumps lay about in black disarray.

But the Gunnisons, like others, saw prom­
ise in this beginning. They met all the require­
ments (at least 14 years of age, with good 
primary education), and were enrolled in the 
first class by the president, Joseph R. Williams.

Lewis Ransom Fisk, A.B., A.M., LL.D., D.D., 
was teaching chemistry when the faculty chose 
him to represent them as acting president after 
Williams’ resignation.

11

In 1862, students scythed grass, professors netted laboratory specimens before re-roofed College hall.

Lh xperimenters in thought set a daring goal;

the idea of teaching agriculture in schools 
was not a new one in the mid-19th century. 
Most people in the young nation earned their 
living by the soil, and to teach agriculture 
was to teach the country’s main industry.
The pressure groups who fought for agri­
cultural schools and colleges did not seek a 
place where young people could learn how

to farm; they wanted them to study the “why” 
of farming practices, to experiment with new 
thoughts, to extend their interests beyond the 
limits of their own clearings. They wanted 
them to find a way of life as well as a means 
of living. Their idea was 19th century roman­
ticism; they injected the daring of American 
pioneer action into education.

Seek a new way of life

The Legislature of 1855 authorized the 
Michigan State Agricultural Society to select, 
subject to approval of the State Board of 
Education, a site within 10 miles of Lansing 
for a State Agricultural School to teach the 
“science and practice of Agriculture.”

Gov. Kinsley S. Bingham signed the bill 

into law on February 12, 1855.

hree buildings and six dedicated men

for resources, the Legislature turned to 
a provision of the 1850 constitution which 
deeded 22 sections from a federal salt springs 
grant “for the land, the erection of buildings, 
the purchase of furniture, apparatus, library 
and implements, payment of professors and 
teachers, and such other necessary expenses 
to be incurred in the establishment and suc­
cessful operation of the Agricultural College 
of the State of Michigan.” The salt springs 
lands were sold, and with the proceeds the 
state purchased from A. R. Burr 676.57 acres 
of muck land three and one-half miles east 
of the new capitol.

14

It paid Burr $15 per acre: $10,148.55. 
Lansing, the state capital, far removed 
from the center of Michigan’s population, was 
in the wilderness as far as most people were 
concerned. Years later, “The Bubble,” a 
student publication, would describe the city 
as bounded by the “Big Marsh,” “illimitable 
mud,” and “infinite swamp.”

But Michigan built its Agricultural Col­
lege, using clay from a nearby hollow for the 
bricks. It hired a staff and a president, set up 
rules and courses of study, pushed the debris 
to one side, and opened the doors.
The date: May 13, 1857.

9he buildings, if not complete at this 

time, could be improved as the needs 
arose; the “campus” was not even clear of 

slashing and brush—but that was part of the 
plan; to have students attend “college” part 
of each day, and work the rest of the time 
on the grounds as part of their education and 
“keep.” Such manual labor was considered 
vital to the development of well-rounded, 
responsible citizens.

To the Gunnisons it looked good. After 
President Williams had enrolled them and 
introduced them to some of their classmates 
they set out on a tour of the three buildings 
and the grounds.

College Hall was a three-story rectangular 
structure of orange-red brick, 50 by 100 feet, 
built on a gentle rise. The first floor had a 
partially-supplied chemistry laboratory at the 
north end, an assembly hall-chapel at the 
south. On the second floor were two large 
classrooms and two offices, one for the presi­
dent, another for the college treasurer; on the 
third floor, a meager library in one corner, 
a museum in another, and three small class­
rooms.

The horse barn was of brick, two stories 
above a cellar. It was housing for the stock 
the students would need to work the farm 
and grounds.

greet first students

The first greenhouse, built in 1866, soon proved inadequate, and this one was built in 1874, at the 
edge of the river, overlooking the hollow in which the Beal gardens were later planted.

15

a HE OTHER HALL, Saint’s Rest, was to be the Gunni- 

sons home while they were at college. The basement, 
where they would spend many leisure hours, contained the 

kitchen, washrooms, students’ dressing room, storeroom and 
cellar, with a cooking range and cold and hot water tanks 
and washing equipment. The dining room, sitting room, 
reading room and steward’s apartment occupied the first 
floor. The second and third floors were well-ventilated 
dormitories, in which students slept four to a room. The 
capacity of Saint’s Rest was the limit of College enroll­
ment, for neighboring farm houses could not accommodate 
roomers, and the road to Lansing discouraged thoughts 
of daily travel.

A bridge over the Red Cedar was an early requirement. This one carried Farm Lane.

mJ_he dream of the century comes true

This was the College of May 31, 1857. 
Four brick homes to house faculty families 
would be built before the end of 1857. A 
wooden farm house that came with the prop­
erty would be rebuilt. And students soon 
would build a bridge over the Red Cedar river.
On the day of the College’s opening, these 
and many other things were still to come. 
There was still a sharp odor about the “farm,” 
from the breaking of rich, virgin soil.

For the dedication, the chapel in College 
Hall was filled; interested people had come 
from miles around. On the platform were 
Kinsley S. Bingham, governor of Michigan; 
Joseph R. Williams, president of the College; 
Calvin M. Tracy, professor of mathematics; 
and Lewis R. Fisk, professor of chemistry.
The governor and his staff had ridden from 
Lansing in a horse-drawn hack. Many of the 
others had ridden behind oxen.

As stumps were pulled and sloughs drained, landscaping started. None of these small conifers remains.

The greenhouse and Botanical laboratory, right, formed the setting for the memorial fountain of the Class of 1883. This 1884 
photograph was taken from the site of the new (1955) library looking toward the spot where the Music building now stands.

The Gunnisons elbowed their way into 
the room and found a spot beside a window, 
where they could follow the proceedings.

President Williams spoke for more than 
an hour. Summarizing, he said: “Established 
on no precedent, it (the College) is like a 
pioneer in the march of men and the march 
of mind.”

Governor Bingham foresaw that in the 
success of “this experiment” Michigan would

be “justly entitled to the high honor of having 
first established a College to teach the theory 
and practice of agriculture.”

“Thus with the liveliest anticipation and 
the highest hopes of success,” he said, “we 
welcome the Free Agricultural College among 
the institutions of learning of the State of 
Michigan, and bid it Godspeed. Long may 
it flourish, an honor to its founders and an 
honor to the state.”

On a sunny, summer afternoon, between 1880 and 1890, Lea Renner, daughter of a college 
steward, posed in braids and Sunday finery for her portrait on the beautifully landscaped grounds 
of the Botanical laboratory. Williams hall shows in the distance. The Botanical lab burned 
in 1890, Williams in 1919.

The Agricultural College of the State of 
Michigan was now a reality: three buildings 
on a hill, in a cleared patch of swamp and 
muck land. On two barked, fifteen-foot poles 
before Saint’s Rest hung a bell, and it was 
rung throughout dedication day and on into 
the night.

Horace Greeley, of the New York Tribune, 
one of America’s greatest editorialists, wrote

President Williams: “I would sooner be Presi­
dent of the first State Agricultural College 
than President of the United States.”

Congress heard about it. In 1850, Michi­
gan had asked for federal aid for an agri­
cultural college, and was denied. In 1858, it 
tried again with legislative sanction, and a 
bill sponsored by Rep. Justin S. Morrill of 
Vermont passed both Houses and Senate. 
But President James Buchanan vetoed it.

George Thompson Fairchild helped frame the 
Morrill Act. At Michigan State, 1865 to 1879, 
he was a teacher, acting president (1872-73), 
assistant secretary, and librarian. He became 
president of the Agricultural College of Kansas.

State’s idea spreads across

the nation..........

in 1862, with agriculturists and statesmen 
pointing to Michigan’s “local experiment,” 
Senator Morrill again pressed his measure 
on Congress, seeking federal support for such 
institutions. The bill was signed into law 
Feb. 12, 1862, by Abraham Lincoln.

The Morrill Act provided aid for colleges 
whose “leading object shall be, without ex­
cluding other scientific and classical studies, 
and including military tactics, to teach such 
branches of learning as are related to agri­
culture and the mechanic arts.”

The Class of 1886 posed for this picture in its sophomore year. It was 
one of the most active of 19th century classes, working vigorously for 
athletics, student government, publications, curriculum changes.

The Library-Museum was four years old when this photo was taken in 1885. It became the Administration building.

broad knowledge was demanded in all

the Morrill Act gave each state 30,000 
acres of land for each senator and representa­
tive, to be used in support of the schools which 
thus were known as “land grant colleges.” 
Michigan received 240,000 acres.

This was five years after the College 
opened its doors. Its enrollment had dropped

to less than 50 from the 123 of its opening. 
The manpower and economic pressures of the 
Civil War were being felt in the west. Oppo­
sition rose from many quarters, for, as one 
writer said, this “ugly duckling” of a Repub­
lican legislature was a long time acquiring the 
aspect of a “swan” in Democratic eyes.

The cadet band from its earliest days furnished the tempo for drills and parades, serenaded at teas and socials, soon reached 
the point where it could present its own musicales. Uniforms came with more formal cadet organization in the 1880’s.

pursuits and callings

Michigan Agricultural College—its new 
name since 1861—was struggling to stay 
alive. The University of Michigan, opposed 
to the College from the start, renewed its 
arguments: “The College is a failure and a 
disappointment. Join it to the university and 
use the buildings for a reformatory school.”

The hort class of 1886 about to go to work in the fields. 
In the group was 16-year-old Ray Stannard Baker, later 
author and consultant to President Wilson at the Paris peace 
conference.

The newly built (1888) Horticultural building, designed by Liberty Hyde Bailey, was the first built 
specifically for this purpose. Nursery at right supplies gardens. Windmill, background, is on Grand 
River road.

The first Wells hall, named after the president of the Board of Agriculture, was built the year after Saint’s 
Rest burned in 1876. Fire destroyed it February 11, 1905, and a second Wells hall was built on the spot.

S. M. Millard, class of ’64, watched the 

students depart for Gettysburg.

Those who remained to see the College 
through its darkest days, he felt, were creating 
a stern heritage. “We do not worship any one 
man as the founder of our college. No John 
Harvard, no Hopkins, no Cornell. 
In the 
beginning an idea appeared—a broad knowl­

edge was demanded—a knowledge which 
would reach out into all the walks of life 
and elevate all pursuits and callings.”

enough for the poorest,” said President 
Williams of the Agricultural College in 1858.
Students left their impressions in personal 
diaries. A day from the diary of Edward G. 
Granger, a student from Detroit:

“This morning laid abed till the bell rang. 
Got ready just in time for Chapel. Worked 
with Bush and Frederick in the College build-
ing which was very convenient for me as it 
rained most all the morning. The rest of the 
morning I spent in studying and reading, till 
12 o’clock when I commenced a letter to 
Mary which I finished and directed soon after 
dinner but which lies in my drawer now, I 
having forgotten to put it in the mail. After 
finishing my letter I played a game of chess 
with Foote, or rather tried to teach him what 
little I know of the game.”

In office four years, 1885-89, Edwin Willets 
earned respect of faculty and students. Institu­
tion of the Mechanical course, the college’s first 
departure from agriculture, and reorganization 
of the military were developments of his time. 
He was an able congressman and first assistant 
secretary of agriculture.

but they stopped a little farther on, the turkey 
having flown. After a little farther we turned 
and struck off into the woods. Presently we 
came across the track of the wounded turkey 
again. We followed it a short distance to a 
brush pile where we found the turkey which 
had lain down to die.

beet industry in Michigan, campaigned against food frauds, put an end to the use of poisonous Paris Green in wall paper. Here 
he lectures in the Chem building in 1892.

“We cut off its head with the axe. We took 
him over to Mr. W—’s for a present to the 
President. The President invited us to come 
over and help him eat it on Tuesday. After 
supper I studied my geometry for a while and 
then went over to the College to hold a candle 
while Bush painted the black boards.

A fter Foote and Bush had gone to bed, 
Prof. F— came in and asked Foote if 
he found a turkey in the woods. Foote told 
Prof. F— that he did. The Prof, gave him a

that Prof. F— shot the turkey this morning in 
the corn-field and that he did not follow the

time. Mighty Hunter.”

Students on their way to or from work in 
the fields would some times show off the Col­
lege’s oxen in log- or stump-pulling contests 
with local farmers. The College’s first rush— 
unofficial—occurred when members of one 
group spotted a bee tree across the river.

In a body, they dashed for the honey by 
the shortest available route—over a tree which 
had fallen across the stream. In the mad jostle, 
they tumbled one another into the water, and 
the bees, warmed by the sun and warned by 
the commotion, attacked. Rock bruises and 
bee stings were nursed that night in Saint’s 
Rest.

hallengers strike at State’s right to exist

Work was a major part of the philosophy 

under which the Agricultural College 
of the State of Michigan was founded: This 
was a “work school.” Three hours a day of 
manual labor (or four, in summer term) were 
demanded of each student, and he was credited 
with pay at the rate of eight cents an hour.
It was a method in keeping with the think­
ing of the times, and with it the college not 
only improved and maintained its grounds, 
but raised crops to be sold to help pay ex­
penses. It came as no surprise that they did 
not pay all expenses.

In 1853, the University of Michigan had 
proclaimed: “We will educate all your sons 
who wish to be educated for the different pro­
fessions. We will educate those who wish to 
take a particular course to fit them for a par­
ticular business. We will educate those who 
wish to become strictly literary and scientific 
men. And beyond all this, we have established 
and will carry on an Agricultural Department 
for those who intend to devote themselves 
particularly to agriculture.” This growl be­
came a roar with introduction of the first 
College appropriation bill in the Legislature.

For a half century, 1869-1919, Williams Hall was “home” to Michigan State students. 
It stood about where the present (1955) library stands. Photographed about 1900.

Representative Reuben Goodrich of Gene­
see county reported: “It looked like the scales 
were so evenly balanced that one vote either 
way would kick the beam.

Saved by scratch
The friends of the measure asked for an 

appropriation—I think of $40,000—to 
proceed with the work, and the battle was

over that or the sale of the farm. The College 
was saved by a mere scratch, and we secured 
the appropriation asked for.”

Not for many years, while the “duckling” 
grew into a “swan,” did the pressure let up 
for the sale of the “farm” back to the farmers 
and the absorption of the Agricultural College 
into the institution at Ann Arbor. Appro­
priations were a source of never-ending con­
troversy.

“for effective service during the coming (1858) 
season.”

There was more than plowing and raising 
crops at the Agricultural College of Michigan, 
even at this early date. The foresight and drive 
of Professor Fisk had brought a chemistry 
course to the young College in 1857, when 
few universities, even long-established ones, 
included it in their curricula. The “why” of 
farm practices was being sought and studied 
in the laboratory as well as in the soil.

But the idea of the land-grant colleges had 
been established, and was spreading now across 
the nation from the east to the new west.

Pattern followed
By April, 1858, Iowa had created an Agri­

cultural School patterned after that in 
Michigan. Minnesota followed in the 60’s, 
and groups in Alabama, South Carolina, Wis­
consin and Massachusetts lobbied for similar 
colleges.

At Michigan’s Agricultural College, more 
than 60 acres had been placed under culti­
vation, and about 80 acres more had been 
cleared. Two teams of horses and six brace 
of oxen were reported in excellent condition

gan State was Prof. Edith F. McDermott, shown here in an 
Abbot hall lab in 1896, just after the new Women’s course 
was instituted.

Lewis Griffin Gorton became president of Mich­
igan State in 1893; in 1895, the board asked for 
and received his resignation. Only 33, he lacked 
experience, background.

Tight schedule
Classes, study and field work for the origi­

nal students were regulated by a tight 

schedule.

Fifteen minutes after rising at 5:30, every 
student attended prayer in the chapel of Col­
lege Hall. After a six o’clock breakfast, some 
went to classes, while others studied, and the 
rest headed for the field and woods and three 
hours or more of manual labor.

The schedule of courses included chem­

istry, algebra or arithmetic, and English.

“All students are required to promptly 
attend all chapel exercises, recitations, lectures, 
and field operations.

Strictly forbidden

tt'T'HE use of tobacco and other narcotics, 
JL being disapproved under all circum­
stances, is strictly forbidden in any of the 
College buildings.

“Card playing and other games of chance 

are wholly prohibited.

“No student will be permitted to interrupt 
or interfere with the labor of fellow students 
and other persons employed on the premises, 
or to visit them while at their labor.

There were no co-eds at the Agricultural 
College in those rigorous pioneering days. 
But there were girls in Lansing, and students 
found their ways to them. Frequently this 
meant several miles on foot over dirt and 
plank roads and dusty by-paths. A favored 
place was the “Fern Sem,” the Michigan 
Female Seminary at the northwest end of 
Grand River road in Lansing, where the 
Michigan School for the Blind is today.

Student survey teams with derbies, cadet caps and mous­
taches appeared on the campus with engineering curricula 
in 1885, were to stay for many decades.

The students were divided into three work 
groups, alternating in clearing and expanding 
the College grounds. There were also the 
matters of gardening, maintenance and farm 
chores.

Legislators and farmers believed manual 
labor was as much education as administra­
tion: That students must learn to work as 
well as think. The idea persisted for many 
years.

Strict rules applied—subject to frequent 
protest—to the manner in which students spent 
their time.

Gay nineties custom called for a group picture of sports 
captains and stars.

Elmer Ewing, C B. Smith and Albert Gillette lived here with Leander Burnett, 
star Indian athlete, in 1891. The cottage, located east of what is now Ranney park, 
cost $4 a term. Cornetist Gillette will have to move if man in hammock wants to
continue to nap.

rr-vHE relationship resulted in student groups 
JL being invited to “Fern Sem” for special 
occasions. Of a husking bee, one student 
wrote:

“The night was lighted by one of those 
brilliant harvest moons and by the smiling 
faces of ‘Fern Sem’ students who acted as 
partners in the husking. The number of red 
ears found was quite remarkable, in fact so 
many and so well scattered over the field were 
they, that they occasioned a good deal of 
querying, some declaring that the planter must 
have had foreknowledge of the future huskers. 
(The finder of an ear of red corn thereby 
earned a kiss.—Ed.) When the corn was all 
husked and picked up, and the stalks bound 
and set up, we were treated to a bountiful 
lunch and then to a jolly social time. We were 
allowed to linger into the small hours.”

The little College, harassed from every 

quarter, was building for the future.

Work continued on enlarging the campus, 
following a basic landscape idea patterned 
after New York’s Central Park and Washing­
ton, D. C.

The campus was planned as the end of a 
boulevard leading from the capitol building, 
and for years was known as “College Park.” 
Responsible for the “judicious planting and 
care” of the campus were Professors Holmes, 
Thurber and Beal, of the Horticulture and 
Botany departments. Landscape architecture 
became, in 1865, an established part of the 
curriculum.

The ague strikes
Fumes of turned virgin soil were blamed for 

much of the sickness and ague that in­
valided students and even sent some of them 
home. It was so severe that at one time in 
1858, eight able-bodied men could not be 
found on the campus.

Students left for other reasons, too. Oscar 
Palmer was a sad, early case. As he told the 
story in later years, he planted a turnip patch 
by broadcasting seeds half a bushel to the acre.

34

Turnips sprouted thick as grass and grew 
into useless, pencil-thin monstrosities. Farm­
ers and critics guffawed. 
(They were still 
guffawing long after Oscar became a success­
ful business man, doctor, solon — and mem­
ber of the Board of Agriculture.) But what 
made Oscar leave the College was oxen that 
would “gee” when he wanted them to “haw.” 
He whammed them with a board, and they ran 
away. Oscar took up medicine — elsewhere.

President Williams pleaded for an agricul­
tural board to help administer the College. 
Such a board, he said, would not only help 
cure the College’s physical ailments, with 
finances, but it might win fuller sympathy 
and support from the people of the state. He 
suggested to the state Senate that they might 
establish a lecture term “to be held in the 
winter, in which courses of study would be 
given by the several professors on topics in 
their departments.”

“Large numbers of farmers would find 
leisure in the winter to attend a course of lec­
tures on farming,” he predicted. “And while 
the College was thus extending its usefulness,” 
it would attract many to a full course of study.

Services extended
With that germ of an idea was born the 

comprehensive agricultural extension 
service with which Michigan State College 
today reaches farmers throughout the world.

The library was the second building on campus to have 
electric lights (1890). The yellow light of carbon filaments 
left much to be desired, however.

President Williams resigned in 1859. The 

Board of Education, hard-pressed for 
funds, demurred on naming a full-titled suc­

cessor, and asked Prof. Lewis Ransom Fisk 
to be president pro-tempore at $1,500 annual 
salary.

“Naughty, naughty!” The influence of women for the good 
is acknowledged pictorially in 1896. Photography was coming 
into its own as a hobby at this time.

In 1861, the Legislature re-named its 
enterprise “Michigan Agricultural College” 
and placed it under a new “State Board of 
Agriculture.”

But the “War of the Rebellion” had started, 
and M.A.C., on the threshold of development, 
faced perilous times.

What might have been M.A.C.’s first 

graduating class, that of 1860, was 
broken up by the reorganization. It fell, then, 
to the class of ’61 to carry the honor of the 
first graduating class of the first college dedi­
cated to the full-time teaching of agriculture 
as a science.

There were seven members in the class: 
Henry D. Benham, Leonard V. Beebe, Albert 
N. Prentiss, Gilbert A. Dickey, Albert F. Allen, 
A. Bayley and Charles E. Hollister.

The class was excused before the end of 
the final term so six of the seven could enlist.
Frank Hodgman, Class of ’62, wrote in 
his poems published in 1898 how “When 
Lincoln ran for President, and Seward spoke 
in town, we organized a Lincoln club and all 
of us went down—in wampus blue and overalls 
and jaunty hats of straw, on wagon racks and 
horses’ backs. ...”

“Then came the weary, evil days of Civil 

War and strife;

“And some of us went marching out to 

save the Nation’s life;

“And some came back with honors 

crowned and some were stricken low.”

Soruced-un cadets at the Armory, about 1893. The building was constructed (just west of present Music building) in 1885 as 
a memoriid to students in Civil war. It had many uses - gymnasium lectures, commencement- besides military drill, but the 
odor of its tar-gravel floor brought coughs and complaints until covered with good maple m 1895.

Whole classes left M.A.C. in those war­
times, most to join the army and few to return. 
Fever and ague plagued those who remained.
Finances were critically low, and the Board 
found it difficult to justify its needs as enroll­
ment slipped each year from 140 in 1858 to 
98 in 1859 and 49 in 1860. Enlistments from 
the student body slowed down, but admissions 
were few, too, and in the four full years of war 
there were never more than 70 students.

Ranks are thinned
One of those who stayed long enough to 

graduate with the class of ’64 before 
enlisting was W. Scott Millard. He said: 
“Dark days were they in the ’60’s, when 
Class No. 2 enlisted in a body and went into 
the army. Dark days were they when for 
weeks all the classes were in doubt whether 
the powers that were would wreck the College 
in the interest of other institutions of learning. 
Dark days were they when the epidemic of 
diphtheria . . . thinned our ranks within a few 
days . . . absolutely closing the doors of the 
College.”

These “pioneer students,” Millard recalled, 
“saw no ‘dress parades.’ They lived in their 
‘fatigue suits,’ and left the ‘dress parade’ to 
their successors. We never had a ‘college yell’ 
but we dug ditches three hours a day.”

/_j^he faculty strove to stay disaster. “In 
JL our faculty meeting,” Prof. R. C. Kedzie 
recalled in 1901, “the appalling information 
was given that D— and G— were going home 
for the reason that their red flannel shirts had 
been stolen from the clothes line and they had 
no money to buy garments to replace them.
“Lose two good students for the price of a 
pair of shirts? Never! A contribution on the 
spot raised the sum necessary, and the shirts 
were bought and presented—as gorgeously 
red as if they represented the lifeblood of the 
College.”

Professor Kedzie was writing of the days 
of ’63, one year after Theophilus C. Abbot 
began a tenure as president of M.A.C. that

38

was to last for 22 years—until 1884.

Abbot was to be president of the College 
during the most important formative years of 
its history—important for crystallization of 
ideas if not physical achievement.

Science; application
In the catalog, President Abbot wrote : “The 

College proposes to impart a knowledge of 
Science and its application to the arts of life. 
Especially are those kindred arts, such as 
Chemistry, Botany, Zoology and Animal 
Physiology, prosecuted to a much greater 
extent than in institutions where the study of 
their practical applications is not pursued.”

Forest of Arden, near the Big Rock, and was a favorite spot for picture-taking. Note 
there are only two girls in this group; co-ed enrollment at the college was still light.

In 1863, the College faculty consisted of 
the president, two professors and three in­
structors. There were 60 students—a modest 
foundation on which to build the program 
envisioned by President Abbot. But in the 
words of Dr. C. E. Bessey, M.A.C. botanist, 
this was the only college in the West “in which 
one could study all of the great sciences . . . 
after any fashion at all.”

Only one of its kind in the West
“To afford the means of a general educa­
tion to the farming class . . . give him (the 
student) an insight into the nature of the 
objects and forces with which he has to deal 
. . . make an intelligent and useful citizen . . . 
cultivate his taste, and enable him to give 
expression to his knowledge and opinions.” 
These were the ideals Dr. Abbot planned to 
turn into reality at M.A.C.

Tree-shaded Red Cedar attracted strollers, day-dreamers, lovers — and artists. Here four artists in the 1890’s paint a sailor-

A program of fence and road-building, 
clearing and draining was begun. Plans were 
made for an extensive orchard.

All departments of the College were put 
to work planning future activities. Dr. Kedzie 
began making meteorological records, among 
the first in the country. Dr Manly Miles visited 
fine herds in the east to acquire stock for the 
College barns. Prof. Albert N. Prentiss and

Dr. Abbot planned model farms and gardens 
to demonstrate modern machinery and the 
application of classroom scientific studies to 
practical agriculture. Soon on the staff with 
Kedzie, Miles and Prentiss were George T. 
Fairchild, Oscar Clute, R. C. Carpenter, 
Albert J. Cook and W. F. Beal — the Beal 
whose work with the Darwin theories of hybrid 
vigor was to open the way for development of 
revolutionary hybrid corn.

Policy declared
Back of all these men and their principles 

stood the Morrill Act, a declaration of 
national policy supporting the work of the 
land grant colleges and providing material aid.
Michigan Agricultural College was ready 
when the Civil War ended, and it turned to its 
students and the students turned to it with a 
new recognition of hopes for the future.

Manual labor was deemed good for soul as well as body. 
Here student crews set fence posts in the late 1890’s under 
supervision of one of the farm staff, about where Dairy

igan State’s daring to bring science into everyday lives. It is a 
summer’s day in 1888.

■he college the Gunnison boys went to 

was a skeletal affair of professors, rooms 
and students. 

In a matter of weeks, the 

atmosphere of “college life” mingled with the 
pungent odors of soil and stump fires. The 
school bell before Saint’s Rest invited action. 
Late one January night a group of students 
propped the bell upside down, filled it with 
water and left it to freeze. The whole student 
body slept late that morning as irate overseers 
chipped ice to free the clapper.

From pranks to debating hall podiums 
and athletic teams was normal progression.

buggy traffic on Michigan avenue, despite ruts, mud and dust. View is to west, toward Lansing.

iports emerge

By the ’60’s, athletics were an important 

extra-curricular part of student life.

“Our sports,” wrote C. J. Monroe, “were 
mainly of the country sort, one- and two-old- 
cat ball games, running, hop-step-and-jump, 
pom-pom pull-away, and leap-frog. Some of 
them were not very dignified. Still, there were 
no smashed noses or cracked heads, maimed 
limbs or killings.”

The baseball team of 1897 was a cracker jack. Third from 
left, center row, is Coach-Trainer Bob Gale.

Scrub baseball made its appearance in 
1865. Cricket was tried. There was also, as 
a later reporter recalled the situation, “miscel­
laneous kicking at the football.”

There was sporadic clamoring for athletic 
organization through the 70’s. In 1882 the 
College acknowledged that athletics were of 
sufficient importance to demand attention. In 
1884, a local field day was held, with wrestling, 
track events, and a tug-of-war.

The year 1886 was a banner one. An 
athletic organization was set up under man­
agement of Prof. R. C. Carpenter. Olivet and 
Albion colleges sent students to M.A.C. for 
a track meet May 14 and 15. A football 
team was organized and equipped, and games 
scheduled with non-college teams in the area. 
The first M.A.C. yell was invented and adopted 
in 1889:

“Uzz, Uzz, Uzz------M.A.C.!”

Field Days grow
By the end of the 19th century, athletics 

had been well established at M.A.C. 
Field days, begun modestly in 1884, had come 
to be a highlight of the collegiate year. Track 
was the major sport and in it M.A.C. ruled 
the seven-team Michigan Intercollegiate Ath­
letic Association (M^.I.A.A.). Baseball was 
collegiate and vigorous. Football was a pick­
up collegiate sport. This was the background 
for future athletic greatness.

Organization of societies was another 

phase of student life that sprouted 
quickly in the virgin soil of M.A.C. Through 
the 19th Century, and on into the 20th, 
societies out-paced athletics as a student-life 
interest. There were organizations in litera­
ture, music, art, and the sciences, including 
agriculture. There were organizations which 
left no records and for which historians find 
no beginnings, purpose, or reason for dis­
appearance.

Literary societies came first, based on 
interest in discussions, essays and lectures. 
Debating, which required neither special 
equipment nor finances, flourished, and there 
were meets with Western Michigan, the Uni­
versity of Michigan, and any group that had 
both the time and the urge.

The first literary society—lyceum—was 
organized in 1857, and others followed fast.

Lyceums popular

Nightshirts were long and floors were cold; see how man at 
right curls his toes. The figure they are “feeding” may be

A gricultural College Lyceum and Excel- 
j[\. sior Lyceum were the first. By the 70’s 
each class had its own lyceum. Phi Delta 
Theta came to M.A.C. in 1873, the Eclectics 
in 1877. (Phi Delta Theta is still on campus; 
the ’Tics became Alpha Tau Omega in 1940.)

Union Literary Society, founded in 1876, 
was noteworthy in that it was the only society 
to acquire its own on-campus building. The 
house built in 1890 was used for languages 
and journalism after U. L. S. expired. It was 
razed in 1955 to make room for the new library.

nr-'he urge to publish something was the basis 
JL for another congenital student activity. 
It was the sole aim of the Stoical Pen Yankers, 
who printed The Bubble monthly from May 
30 to Oct. 24,1868. The Bubble was an escape- 
valve for pent-up puns and satire, edited by 
Frank Burton and written in part by one 
Hezekiah Z. Solemnstyle, a pen-name which 
reminded readers of the then chairman of the 
Board of Agriculture, Hezekiah G. Wells. 
Seven issues of The Bubble were printed.

The Speculum was a notable publication, 
a magazine of newspaper character. It was 
published quarterly from its founding, August 
1, 1881, until 1888, then monthly until 1895.
The Speculum printed news items, tech­
nical reports and summaries, and literary 
contributions, including poems. It had a strong 
editorial voice and was a vigorous participant 
in student thinking on such issues as coeduca­
tion, military science, curriculum expansion, 
and the physical nature of the campus. How­
ever, the College felt the need of an organ with 
more public relations character. It recognized 
that there was not enough advertising to 
support two publications, so the Speculum 
“expired” and the M.A.C. Record took over.

First yearbooks

As the Bubble and the Speculum were the 

l 19th century predecessors of the Holcad 
and Michigan State News, the Harrow, pub­

lished in 1887, 1888, and 1889, and the 
Heliostat, published in 1896, were yearbook 
fore-runners of the Wolverine, which did not 
appear until 1900.

Jonathan L. Snyder was president, 1896 to 
1916. An athlete from Slippery Rock, Pa., he 
was 37 when he took the job, left a notable 
record, saw attendance at State increase from 
300 to 2,000.

Student government, as an expression of 
self-discipline and self-help, was an inevitable 
outgrowth of the earliest life at the Agricultural 
College. Manual labor and the boarding 
house arrangement pointed the way toward 
student responsibility for student welfare. Stu­
dents in 1881 protested the way a steward used 
boarding funds, and demanded the right to 
do their own housekeeping. They wanted to 
set their own standards and administer the 
funds through a boarding club. The College 
approved, and a club system resulted in 1882 
that lasted nearly 60 years.

Student government
Maintaining order in dormitories called 

for another device; the system of stu­

dent self-government tried at Iowa Agricultural 

College was copied at M.A.C. in 1875. The 
idea was to elect a captain and lieutenant 
for each dormitory district. They were to 
enforce rules, arrange trials, act as judges, 
prescribe penalties, and hear appeals. A modi­
fication of this system was tried and, of course, 
encountered troubles.

This was government designed simply to 

maintain order in dormitories. (The 
counterpart of modern student government 

was the 20th century “council” set up to 
control friction between classes and destined 
as it grew to encompass all phases of student 
interest.)

Leadership weak
The Speculum of Oct. 15, 1884, denied 

that student government at M.A.C. was 
failing, but it said pointedly of its district

captains and lieutenants, “It is too often true 
that these men are elected, not because they 
will attend to their business, but because they 
will not; they are frequently men who either 
will not or are afraid to report any misde­
meanors.”

President Abbot said this same year: “The 
students’ government has been well sustained, 
the members have been judiciously chosen by 
the students, and the organization has been 
of essential service in preserving order and 
general good conduct.” It was his judgment 
that “harmony has prevailed.”

JW^ajor changes

yet before the College stepped into the 
20th century, there were major changes in 
enrollment, including recovery from the Civil 
War days slump, and, later, accommodations 
for an open invitation to women students; 
fire disasters and tremendous expansion of the 
physical plant from a hole in the wilderness 
to an educational community; and broadening 
of the curriculum as the growth of the whole 
United States began to extend beyond the axe 
and the plow. Each phase of growth dove­
tailed with the others: Physical expansion 
with enrollment with curriculum with student 
activities. In the 1870’s President Abbot saw 
his cherished dreams begin to materialize.

Ten Women in 1870

>npEN women attended M.A.C. in 1870. It 
_L was difficult to find suitable manual labor 
for them, but the College managed to keep 
them busy preparing seed, cutting potatoes, 
transplanting, pruning shrubbery, gathering 
small fruit, and working in the greenhouse. 
With the men, they studied chemistry, botany, 
horticulture, floriculture, trigonometry, sur­
veying, entomology, and bookkeeping. They 
lived with stewards’ families on campus, or in 
private homes.

Faculty and students admitted that women 
were a desirable addition to the College, but 
the College was not yet ready to invite them. 
There had been agitation in the Legislature 
for higher education facilities for women since 
1849, and the University of Michigan opened 
its doors to them in 1870, but the lawmakers 
were not yet ready in the 80’s to provide at 
M.A.C. the special facilities needed to house 
and educate co-eds.

Almost without interruption, though, there 
have been women at the College since that 
year. The first of them to complete the full 
requirements for graduation was Eva Diann 
Coryell of Grand Rapids, in 1879.

The Speculum later quoted James Y.

Clark:

“The boys no more are rough and rude, their 

actions have a manlier tone

Than when, as in the days of yore, we fellows 

‘ruled the roost’ alone.

Do you not see, your daughters can, with only 

half the meager chance

You give your lazy, worthless sons, the broad 

domain of Truth advance;

And so, to give the State’s fair school the honor 

that is due

You’d better send your sons out there, and 

send your daughters, too.”

Course for women
It became apparent, however, that M.A.C.

was not going to get a women’s building 
before it got the co-eds. Building funds had 
been asked in the Legislature several times, 
with impassioned oratory on the emancipation 
of women and the need to provide them with 
skill not only to hold jobs in offices and shops, 
but to manage comfortable, happy and healthy 
households. So M.A.C. set up a home eco­
nomics course in 1896 and equipped its Abbot 
Hall as a dormitory with cooking, sewing and 
recreation facilities. The women’s building it 
waited for was coming—in the next century.

Women’s building less than a year old in 1901. It survived 
a long series of nicknames, including much-used “hen-coop,” 
to be renamed Morrill hall.

By 6:30 a.m., Feb. 11, 
1905, only a few glowing 
bricks were left of the first 
Wells hall. A new Wells 
—the present one—was 
built quickly to replace it.

The Morrill Act of 1862 and a special 
Michigan legislative act of 1863 called for 
the teaching of military tactics at M.A.C. But 
College administrators felt the limited funds 
available to them did not permit it. There was 
a cadet organization, but students were not 
satisfied. Screamed the Speculum in 1881: 
“We are all dissatisfied with the loosely 
organized company — consisting principally 
of deluded freshmen who imagine themselves 
on the high road to military distinction—that 
meets ‘semi-occasionally’ and clumsily per­
forms its unscientific maneuvers.” It demanded 
a permanent military instructor “from the 
government.”

First military head
President Arthur in 1884 detailed Lieut.

John A. Lockwood as Professor of Mili­
tary Science and Tactics at M.A.C. “But now 
that you have him, what are you going to do 
with him?” cried the Speculum. The paper 
said regular and systematic drill would require 
that manual labor be reduced to two hours a 
day. It added that this “would be a wise course 
even in the absence of a military department.”

Class rush, 1907. Coach Brewer had all rushes held where spectators were comparatively safe. This is near today’s president’s house.

To accommodate cadet training, then, 
President Willits took the first step toward 
eventual elimination of the manual labor 
requirements at M.A.C., reducing the daily 
hours from three to two and one-half. The 
cadets went on to establish a tradition of 
military excellence at M.A.C.

With military reorganization came a mili­
tary band. During fall and winter terms, 
rehearsals were held three times a week at

regular drill hours, and in spring the band 
turned out on the drill grounds to lead regi­
mental parades. Soon the band joined in extra­
curricular life, at celebrations, athletic events, 
mass meetings, and social functions. It wel­
comed guests, stirred college spirit. This was 
the hey-day of bands, and M.A.C.’s cadet 
organization not only provided cadence for 
military parades, but brought concert music 
to the campus in winter and spring terms.

The first co-eds at State, except faculty wives and daughters, 
lived with stewards’ families. Abbot hall, then, in 1900, 
Women’s building, provided first special housing for women. 
Girls’ rooms customarily were decorated with pennants, pad­
dles, pillows, pictures, souvenir dance programs. These also 
have a souvenir poster from the popular play “Arizona, 
dating the picture as of about 1907.

Although some affiliated studies had been authorized early 
and expanded after passage of the Morrill act, engineering 
did not come into its own at State until the 1880’s, was 
known as the Mechanics course until 1907. Workshops shown 
here in 1905 were in the Mechanical laboratory.

On June 19, 1907, dynamite lifted more dirt from the hole over which the second Agricultural budding would 
be built. The first Agricultural laboratory, now Conservation, was built in 1889. The new hall, built on site 
of old bams, cost $182,000, was finest on State’s campus. Circle drive, built soon after Ag hall was finished, 
required removal of the Farm Mechanics building, left, and the 50-year-old bam, right.

Nightshirt parades were a rage that never achieved full tradition status. Principally connected 
with burning frosh beanies, occasionally they were protest stunts. This is 1906.

In the years when Michigan’s Agricultural 
College was sprouting from the newly-turned 
farm lands east of Lansing, its interests were 
in the soil. There was only one division— 
agricultural. The Morrill Act called for teach­
ing of the “mechanic arts” and professors 
aimed generally for “high thinking,” but enroll­
ment and finances did not permit expansion.

Science expands
She course of study remained the same for 

everybody at M.A.C. until 1882. Science, 
though young, was gaining stature in educa­
tion—but only in its “applied” forms. Then 
in 1883, the first “electives” were offered. 
Teaching of veterinary science was expanded; 
Dr. Beal went to work on forestry practices, 
starting work that would bring M.A.C. world 
acclaim; pressure for admission of women 
students guided thinking in the direction 
of home economics. Then in 1885, Edwin 
Willits became president and sparked a new 
phase of the College’s growth.

By the time State was a half century old there was a good reason to call it “College Park.” The campus attracted sightseers by 
buggy, trolley, excursion train. This road approximates present Circle drive, branches at right to present president’s house.

“The time is now propitious for the new 
(mechanic arts) department,” Dr. Willits said 
in his inaugural address. He said the Morrill 
Act stipulation for mechanic arts education 
“was in advance of general public sentiment,” 
but the time had now arrived for its realization.

Staff of the Speculum, about 1890. Liberty Hyde Bailey 
helped edit this newspaper.

This was the time of Thomas A. Edison 

and Alexander Graham Bell, of internal 
combustion engines for carriages, of expand­

ing industrial fields and efficiency. Willits 
founded a mechanical department with Dr. 
Louis McLouth as its head, then visited manu­
facturing centers and convinced industrial men 
that their plants could be run better by college- 
trained personnel. With $7,800 from the 
Legislature, M.A.C. built its first engineering 
laboratory and shops.

Two major changes remained to be made 
in the 19th century: In 1896, the College 
academic year of February to November, fixed 
in 1855 to accommodate farm population and 
farming practices, was changed to September- 
to-June. And in 1899, entrance requirements 
were raised to a par with those of the university.

Fringe-topped surreys, safety bikes, parasols lent holiday atmosphere to many meetings at “College Park.” Here is 
a 1900 Grange meeting at rear of the Real (now Cowles) house. Note 1873 class rock, top center.

In these formative years of the 19th cen­
tury, when student enrollment and teaching 
staff were growing to the level of a mature 
college, and the curriculum was expanding to 
meet new educational needs, M.A.C. grew 
physically, slowly at the beginning, then with 
significant gains in momentum.

Barns and greenhouse came first in the 
earliest years. The first major addition was 
a dormitory and boarding house, built in 1869 
and named Williams Hall, after the first presi­
dent. Flanked by Saint’s Rest and College 
Hall, it housed 86 students in its five stories, 
and for nearly half a century was to serve as 
the center of M.A.C. student social life.

President Theodore Roosevelt came to State in a glittering 
new Reo for semi-centennial fete last of May, 1907. At his 
left in rear seat is President Snyder.

century beckons State to great work

“T. R.” addressed semi-centennial celebrants from platform overlooking west end of what is now women’s athletic 
field, in circle area. This marked end of 50th year of operation, not anniversary of authorization 
(1850 constitution), enactment (1855), nor dedication (1857). Date was May 31.

The Chemical laboratory, destined to exist 
longer than any other academic building on 
the campus, was opened to classes in 1871. A 
first addition was built in 18 81, and yet another 
would be added in 1911 before “Old Chem” 
became a physics building, then a library 
annex, and finally was marked for destruction 
after 84 years of service, to make room for a 
new library in 1955.

Saint’s Rest burned in 1876, the first of 
several such disasters for M.A.C. On a hill 
between the Red Cedar river and College Hall, 
M.A.C. built a new and imposing dormitory, 
a castellated, baroque structure of red brick 
which it named after Hezekiah Wells.

stand. Concrete bleachers were new at this time. Football, baseball, track were staged here.

A veterinary laboratory and an armory 
were built at the same time as the engineering 
shops, in 1885.

Abbot Hall, after the former president, 
came in 1888; it became the first women’s 
dormitory. Liberty Hyde Bailey supervised 
construction of the tower-fronted Horticulture 
building, first of its kind. The next year, 
an Agricultural laboratory — the first “Ag 
Hall” — was built.

An apartment building, Howard Terrace, 
used first by assistants with families, later by 
women students, was built in 1888.

The earliest students and professors found 
their way about the campus at night by the 
light of lanterns and the moon. In 1892, large 
kerosene lamps were mounted on a dozen 
posts about the campus. In 1895, Professor 
Woodworth began hanging electric lights to 
trees and posts, and it was by their light that 
M.A.C. entered the 20th century.

for a long life.

“Outdoor plumbing” was the practical 

reality.

Firewood for stoves and furnaces was

students who preferred not to struggle with 
candlelight when their funds ran low made 
the most of the daylight.

Coal oil lamps, wash pails and river­
bathing were as much a part of mid-19th 
century America as the ideals of the College.

The children of Gunnisonville who came 
to M.A.C. in 1900 enjoyed “modern” con­
veniences. The bath pail had been replaced in 
the late ’80’s by the Bath House Association. 
Membership entitled students to a tub of hot

Bicycles, electrical goods, tennis shoes

The Wolverine of 1901 cost $1.00.

Olympics were a major all-college dance at this time, 1912.

The “Egypts” of outdoor plumbing still 
were a part of the campus, but their days were 
numbered by expansion of sewer systems.

Commercial laundry services were patron­
ized by more and more students, although 
there would always remain a few who pre­
ferred to do their own.

Coal replaces wood
Central heating for buildings was cus­

tomary, and coal piles replaced wood. 
Electric lights came on. The College had 
had two telephones into Lansing since 1881, 
and more were being installed.

The once-a-day mail service started in 
’76—a student walked the route—had been 
expanded to twice-a-day in the ’90’s.

Advertising in the Alumni Record (cir­
culation 3,000) offered food, clothing and 
furnishings.

Woodbury and Savage of Lansing offered 
suits made to order for $15 and up. Very fine 
“needle toe” shoes for ladies, lace or button, 
could be had for $3 to $5. Men’s patent leather 
or calf’s skin shoes in the popular “stiletto” or 
bulldog stylings cost $3 to $6.

a street car line had come from Lansing

15 minutes, not counting waiting for the car 

and time spent lifting it back on the track 
when it jumped off. A railroad, too, had 
arrived in East Lansing, and brought train­
loads of excursionists to visit “College Park.”

Dress was sprucing up. Where overalls 
and red flannels were once the usual attire, 
turtle-neck sweaters and high bustles became 
common. High button shoes and derbies were 
usual. Expenses for the college student, how­
ever, remained within reach of the people for 
whom M.A.C. had been established.

Board for a whole year, at $2 to $2.50 a 
week, would total from $72 to $90. Rooms 
on the campus rented for $9 to $14.25 for the 
school year. Laboratory fees, text books and 
drawing instruments might be expected to 
average from $13 to $16 per annum. The 
student paid $5 tuition when he entered the 
College and none thereafter, although his 
diploma would cost another $5 when he 
earned it.

For one year: $175

qp here was an incidental expense of $15 
JL for a cadet uniform, and students were 
expected to contribute around $7.50 a year 
to help pay dormitory cleaning costs.

Other incidentals, such as laundry and 
society fees (including Bath House Associa­
tion), were anticipated.

But after all, students were paid something 
for the required manual labor, and might hope 
to earn as much as $80 a year in this manner.
A student who came to the College with 
$60 to $75 in his “kick” was well fixed. From 
$125 to $175 would do very well for the year.
There were students, of course, who could 
afford to own a bike. Some “sports” even 
had high wheelers. The “safety bike,” whose

smaller wheels made for softer spills, was a 
quick hit, and rules had to be adopted to 
govern their use on the campus. From the 
M.A.C. Record of May 1, 1900:

“No bicycles are to be ridden upon Faculty 
Row nor across the bridge at Abbot Hall. In 
the latter case the rider must dismount at a 
reasonable distance from the bridge. The 
pedestrian has the right of way on all paths.”

When President Willits took over in the 
late ’80’s, he “discovered,” in the words of 
historian Beal, that dormitory rooms could be 
improved. Relates Beal, “He visited the stu­
dents’ rooms, looked after their brooms, dust­
pans and rubbish boxes, and especially after 
any defacing on the walls. If he discovered a 
pencil mark, he saw that it was erased . . . and 
he talked about the subject. Daily or weekly 
visits to the halls, without scowling tirades, 
but with earnest appeals to pride and decency, 
had their effect.”

Nailing into walls was forbidden, and 
ladder-like wire contrivances were used to 
hang photos, pennants, and dance programs.

Class rock installed
The large rock which the class of ’73 had 

hired moved from its glacial deposit at the 
“delta” of Grand River and Michigan avenues 

to a permanent memorial site was referred to 
frequently, and had the additional glamour of 
a corrected mis-spelling of the word “class.” 
For a time in the ’80’s and ’90’s there 
was a vine-covered, picturesque summer house 
near the class rock, and it was a favorite back­
ground for group photographs.

Tradition had taken root at M.A.C., and 
perhaps the best known at this time was “Split 
Rock.” It was a large, gray boulder midpoint 
on the road between Lansing and the College. 
Students early in the ’70’s found the rock 
marked an ideal resting place for pedestrians.

A cherry tree grows
A cherry pit sprouted in a cleft of the 

rock, and by the ’80’s there was a lusty 
young tree to shade the dusty walker or cyclist.
The rock became a meeting place and a 
spot of reference. Students and alumni com­
posed poems about it, and painted it in 
innumerable pictures.

By 1900 the tree roots had broken the 
* rock in half. The rail fence beside it had dis­
appeared. Trolleys clanged by, and students 
rode more than walked. Split Rock all but

disappeared into the limbo of forgotten tradi­
tions until loyal alumni rescued it from road 
makers and moved a part of it to the lawn of 
the new student union where it stands almost 
unnoticed today.

The Engineering building completed in 1907 at 
a cost of $100,000. It burned in 1916.

This is the J-Hop of about 1912. With nearly 20 years of tradition in its background, the J-Hop had become the major social
event of the year. At this time it was held at the Masonic Temple in Lansing.

Student names for campus locales spoke 
of other traditions. The grove of trees north­
west of the library—now Administration— 
building was the site of plays and pranks and 
became the “forest of Arden.” A picturesque 
clump of trees at a footbridge east of the (now) 
President’s house, was “The Willows.” The 
footbridge is gone, but four aging willows 
remain.

there it clanged until the College gave it to a

Thus the bell tradition at M.A.C. was 
suspended until Beaumont Tower came with 
its tuneful carillons.

Ehe class of ’86 left an imposing memorial 

fountain on the hill south of “Old Chem”; 
it has since been moved to the modern “Hort” 

gardens. The class of 1900 erected a dual 
purpose fountain—horses and people—near 
the library.

Beal gardens flourished beside the river 

and grew to tradition rank.

Early appeals were heard to save College 
Hall. “The most memorable building ever 
erected for the purpose of agricultural educa­
tion”; it fell apart, but the tradition lived in 
Beaumont tower, erected at the same site.

There was tradition in the names of the 
people associated with the College whose 
greatness was about to be recognized around 
the world; men with the stature of William 
James Beal and Liberty Hyde Bailey.

Student life spawned traditions of its 
own peculiar nature. Besides frosh “beanies,” 
deference to seniors, and the hazing-paddle, 
class rivalry produced rushes and annual soph- 
frosh battles. Musicales, parades, and cadet 
uniforms added their bits of glamour to the 
life and legend of the campus.

The Veterinary Medicine building built in 1910. This repre­
sented Michigan State’s first move into the field of education 
leading to professional degrees.

The Willows, 1910. The footbridge spanned a gully which crossed the campus from what is 
now Abbott Road to Beal Gardens. Most of the gully has been filled in, but four willows 
remain beside the walk between the President’s House and Beaumont Tower.

A “nightshirt” parade enjoyed a short­
lived tradition as the prelude to a bonfire at 
which frosh were permitted to cast off their, 
beanies. Designing and publishing vigorously 
libelous posters became a part of class rivalries.
There were barbecues, dances, and pic­
nics, but canoeing on the Red Cedar, so much 
a part of latter-day college life, did not begin 
at M.A.C. until the next century.

The winding Cedar was dawning on

afternoon picnics, hazing escapades, and medi­
tation hours left lasting romantic associations 
between river and campus.

The Gay Nineties brought a social whirl 
that enriched all traditions of campus life and

There were so many activities even in 1885 
that President Willits deemed it advisable to 
caution students in chapel, “Avoid unneces­
sary expenses, especially during commence­
ment, when the tendency is to go to extremes 
in class dances, banquets, and other like indul­
gencies.”

“Like indulgencies” might include going 
to the show at the Bijou in Lansing, attending 
one of the popular musicales such as the road 
company “Arizona,” or having pictures taken.

While the Record of March 22, 1896, 

boasted, “Our classrooms are filled with 
earnest workers,” students examined schedules 
filled with significant dates. Mixed with serious 
discussion of aerial navigation, kinetoscope 
and Roentgen rays were consideration of 
sleigh rides, hay rides, picnics at Park lake, 
and strolls through the countryside to gather 
nuts and perhaps swipe a few tempting apples.

Mixed with talk of horseless carriages,

sion of electrical impulses without wires were 
concern over the status of athletics and excited 
planning of social events, including lawn socials 
and band concerts. The athlete’s mono- 
grammed sweater, the trademark of 20th cen­
tury campuses, made its appearance at M. A.C. 
in 1899. It was black with green lettering.

Professionalism and “muckerism,” brawl­

ing among fans of opposing teams, had 
reared their heads over the athletic scene in 
the ’90’s. While “Aggie” fans took pride in 
receiving athletic representations of other 
schools as gentlemen and refrained, as far as 
possible, from brawling while attending out- 
of-town events, they did complain at home 
occasionally that some of their football players 
were wont to run the wrong way.

State’s faculty in 1895 set up an eligibility 
standard for athletes: an average of at least 
80, with conditions in no more than two 
studies. Moreover, “the faculty opposes pro­
fessionalism in athletics and desires the student 
body to abstain from anything savoring of the
same.

and cumbersome clothing made it hot work but that was 
part of home-making in pre-war days.

There were no coaches on the College 
staff, but some years in the ’90’s the faculty 
hired a “trainer” for specific seasons.

Track, highlighted by M.I.A.A. field days, 

was the main pre-occupation.

Baseball in one form or another had been 
around since the Pre-Civil War days of One- 
Old-Cat, and the interest developed by class 
rivalries and contests with pick-up teams 
in the Lansing area led inevitably to inter­
collegiate contests.

Football, started in 1886, was handicapped 
by lack of competitive opportunities. State 
played Lansing High School in its opening 
game Sept. 26, 1896. There were six new 
men on the College team, and three former 
“Aggies” played with the high schoolers to 
make it a contest. State scored two touch­
downs (four points each), and one goal 
after touchdown (two points), for a cheering 
victory.

Inter-collegiate games developed along the 
way. In 1898, State went to Ann Arbor and 
was walloped by the U. of M. varsity 39 to 0 
on Wednesday, Oct. 12, and then went to 
South Bend three days later and absorbed a 
53 to 0 shellacking by Notre Dame.

Ch’Boom in 1900
Olivet, Albion, Alma and Kalamazoo — 

all M.I.A.A. — were regular opponents 
on the State schedule, and the hustings re­
sounded to:

“Rat-ata-thrat! ta-thrat! ta-thrat!
Terrors to lick! to lick! to lick! 
Kick-a-ba-ba, kick-a-ba-ba,
M.A.C.! M.A.C.! Rah! Rah! Rah!”
Or:

“Chick-a-go-runk! go-runk! go-runk!
Hi, Yi, Rickety, Rah-de-roo!
Depa-la-rah! Repa-la-roo!
Ch’boom, ch’boom! Ch’bim, boom, bee!

When Michigan trounced the State foot­

ball team 119 to 0 in 1902, the College 
was building its first athletic field. The next 
fall Chester L. Brewer was on the staff as 
coach, and with the great Brewer and John 
D. Macklin who followed him things were 
different as State surged out of the small school 
ranks into “big time.”

The 1911 Wolverine said: “Our teams 
improved and continued to improve through 
the whole of Brewer’s career as coach at 
M.A.C. In that time we have held, year after 
year, Michigan championships in basketball 
and track. In 1904 our baseball team won a 
championship. Never has College Field (1911) 
witnessed a defeat in football.”

A scene across Ferry Field, in Ann Arbor, during the State-Michigan game of 1915. After a slow start, State demonstrated 
in the Brewer-Macklin era it was good competition. The rivalry became a major tradition.

Basketball was slower getting under way 
because it required a playing hall. But by
1899 even the co-eds were playing.

Still, support of athletic activities by
1900 was nebulous, and it would be another 
decade before the College would provide free 
admission to all events for all students, through 
“activities” privileges.

On a summer's eve

ife was pleasant at M.A.C. The Record 
j reported that after supper, one balmy 
June evening in ’96, “The College brass band 
made a tour of the campus, playing Yankee 
Doodle and Marching Through Georgia, and 
other stirring tunes. The echoes from the trees 
and buildings, the sight of numerous groups 
engaged in various games, the callers sitting 
on the porches along Faculty Row, the chil­
dren gathered about the Big Stone of ’73, all 
tend to make life pleasant at M.A.C.”

For a lawn social for faculty and seniors 
in ’96, according to the Record, “The trees 
in front of Secretary Butterfield’s residence 
were brilliant with Chinese lanterns, electric 
lights and bunting; delicious refreshments were 
served .. . and all the while Bristol’s orchestra 
charmed the ear with the sweetest strains of 
music.”

Sometimes the young women of Abbot 

entertained, and games were enjoyed.

All-college dances
Dances on an organized all-college basis, 

in the grand manner that was to become 
a hallmark of college life, were making their 
first appearance as the Gay Nineties waned.
Student societies had held dances for mem­
bers and guests since the ’70’s, but the full 
blossoming of social affairs awaited the advent 
of large numbers of co-eds.

The first Military Hops were held in the 
’80’s, the first J-Hops in the ’90’s, and what 
they lacked in attendance they made up in 
enthusiasm. A lyrically happy reporter of the 
1901 J-Hop wrote: “When ye clock in ye citie

Society lists were a barometer of social 
life at M.A.C. at the turn of the century. 
There were literary, debating, professional and 
frankly social groups, some merely one-year 
expressions, others destined to become the 
basis of latter-day Greek groups. Their inter­
ests ran the gamut from the Prohibition League 
to the Calethumpians, who preached “Never 
work between meals,” and at every excuse 
burst into:

“Our daddy’s last red cent to squeeze 
And spend in smoke and sport and sprees, 
Seems now a better way to please 
Than studying for high degrees.”

Greater purpose

rpHE circus, the carnival, the barbecue, 
-L societies, pranks and parades might steal 
the headlines, but they were no serious deter­
rent to the greater purpose at M.A.C., which 
expressed itself in the significant growth and 
the world-wide recognition of achievements 
with which the College marked its first half 
century of existence.

Wisdom of State’s founders

The significance of M.A.C., the Morrill 
Act, and the Land Grant colleges was appar­
ent to the world as the 20th century opened 
and the little college at East Lansing prepared 
to celebrate the 50th anniversary of its ex­
periment.

The Gunnisons and hundreds like them 
who sought at State the key to better farms 
and better homes had become leaders in their 
communities. Their lives were testimony to 
the wisdom of State’s founders and followers. 
Science in agriculture, core of State’s pro­
gram, had produced new strains of crops and 
new controls for what still was the nation’s 
principal industry. As the nation and world 
entered an industrial phase which was to 
sweep everything before it, the “mechanic 
arts” divisions of the Land Grant colleges 
kept pace.

Frank A. Spragg, seeking specialized 
crops for Michigan, produced an alfalfa that 
was a milestone in the dairy industry. Manly 
Miles’ livestock studies were significant.

State’s scientists probed the soil, sought 
remedies for inherent and developed deficien­
cies, experimented with growth and disease 
control, and helped everybody to benefit from 
their findings.

Perry Holden was an evangelist. He was 
among the first to adapt the findings of the 
laboratory to farm techniques, to carry the 
message of the scientist to the farmer in his 
barn and field.

These were the headliners. There were 
others, many others, who embodied the spirit 
of State’s scientific approaches to the world’s 
great problems. But the end lay not in test 
tubes and the tomes of research findings, but 
in adaptation of these to the economy of the

people. It was service not to science but to 
people, and it was in these days of pioneering 
that the pattern of State’s service to the world 
was crystallized. From the diligence of prac­
ticed thinking of these scientists and the en­
thusiasm with which they broadcast their find­
ings sprang the services which justified the 
existence of the Land Grant colleges.

Troops marched in cadence on their way to classes as State’s resources were put to work in helping train cadets for World War 
I. Vocational training for military specialties was State’s field in this major Land Grant college contribution.

From these modest beginnings there grew 

a whole new concept of education and 
service. Starting in 1876, the College sent pro­
fessors into the field for “Institute” forums 
on local problems—to share knowledge and 
seek new challenges. Then in 1894, for the

first of its short courses, dairying, State in­
vited non-students to use its resources for 
study. These courses grew into a momentous 
phase of State’s service; the idea spread wider 
—around the world—as what is known now 
as adult education.

existence in 1955.

Another dream of the College’s faculty, 
best expressed by Liberty Hyde Bailey, was 
for more funds for scientific study. The dream 
was realized in the federal Hatch Act of 1887, 
establishing agricultural experiment stations 
at each of the Land Grant colleges. The ex­
periment station at East Lansing became one 
of the finest in the world.

The College had become nationally fa­
mous by the time Edwin Willits retired as 
president in 1889. His successor, Oscar Clute, 
class of ’62, served four years, and Lewis G. 
Gorton held the office then until 1896. Jona­
than Lemoyne Snyder piloted the College into 
the new century, past its 50th anniversary, 
and into the days of World War I.

The College had achieved fame at this 
date not merely as the symbol of a great idea 
and the daring of new thinkers, but for hav­
ing shown the way in a concept of education 
for service to all the people.

The College had taken education to the 
people in its Farmers’ Institutes, then brought 
the people to its campus for its short courses. 
It had kept pace with the time of great indus­
trial changes with mechanical studies which 
served mushrooming needs of urban civiliza­
tion. It had shown the need for and benefit 
of education for the mothers and housewives 
of America. Its scientist-educators served the 
world.

Call to service
To this scene in 1907 came President 

Theodore Roosevelt to speak at com­
mencement. He had a message to deliver to 
American farmers and said he knew of no 
better place to give it.

From a platform overlooking the hollow 
at the west end of what today is the Women’s 
Athletic field, “TR” urged that Land Grant 
colleges and universities look beyond their 
campuses to the communities that support 
them.

“The men they train,” he said, “must be 
able to meet the strongest business competi­
tion, at home or abroad, and they can do this 
only if they are trained, not alone in the vari­
ous lines of husbandry, but in successful busi­
ness management.”

Life on the farm, he said, must be “im­
proved, dignified, and brightened,” to preserve 
loyalty and pride.

The educators who heard this sincere plea 
to take their teachings to the people responded 
enthusiastically. The President’s message put 
new vigor into the maturing Land Grant col­
lege movement.

In 1907, Michigan Agricultural College 

paused to survey the results of a half cen­
tury of operation and orient itself with the 
fast-changing 20th century. Selection of a 
semi-centennial year was one of judgment. 
The College had observed a quarter-century 
anniversary in 1875, based on the date of the 
constitutional changes which made its estab­
lishment possible. It passed by the 50th anni­
versary of the enabling act in 1905, and chose 
in 1907 to mark years of actual operation.

Historian Beal was impelled to write: 
“You old fellows of 1870 and earlier, think 
of this College in 1911 with 1,600 students 
and corresponding increase in the number of 
faculty. Visit the library of 33,000 books 
and 466 periodicals. See the large number of 
good buildings, trees and extensive lawns in 
place of charred logs and stumps or ragged 
fields.”

Secretary of Agriculture Wallace attended the laying of the 
cornerstone for the new Home Economics building in 1922.

Within a year of the President’s address, 
scholarly and vigorous Robert S. Shaw, dean 
of agriculture, had under his direction a rov­
ing extension agent, whose full-time job was 
to help the farmers of the state analyze and 
solve their problems. Within four years the 
federal government started a plan of its own. 
In 1914, the Smith-Lever act amalgamated 
the plans into what is today one of the finest 
expressions of Land Grant services—the 
county agent system.

Construction of the $300,000 Memorial Union building in 1923 was a combined student-alumni-faculty effort. It was dedicated 
to World War I soldiers. The new Home Ec building, background, is not quite complete.

ighter sides 

of life: Carnival and Circus

Dr. Beal also remarked that the “lighter” 
sides of college activities “have shown great 
development.” The circus or carnival which 
began in 1906 had its “Salome Dance Hall” 
and “Coulter’s Rescue Mission for Thirsty 
Souls.” The annual autumn-evening barbe- 
que sent songs and yells ringing across the 
East Lansing campus, while the Promenade 
Concert had a more austere air.

The J-Hop, which began as a class affair 
in 1892, accumulated a lively history. Chick­
ens shooed onto the dance floor in 1903 failed 
to break up the dance, but hydrogen sulfide 
fumes from a generator beneath the floor of 
the armory in 1906 did more.

The 1912 dance turned into an all-night 
affair when sleighs stuck in drifts between the 
campus and the Lansing Masonic Temple.

During “Excavation Week” in the fall of 1923, students, faculty and administration joined in opening the ground for the founda­
tion of the new Union building. Refreshments were served.

The Student Union, among its many activities, organized annual picnics, complete with games and eats. This one was in 1922, 
and the scene appears to be at the East Lansing city park.

Then on to Ferry Field. Our sections of 

the bleachers were filled with followers 
of ‘Fat’ in his ‘Locomotive’ and ‘Rat-a-ta- 
thrat’ specialty. And when the game was 
over, the officials said that M.A.C. was beaten 
and that the score was 6 to 3. But we were 
almost satisfied, because our team had played 
them even.

More controllable aspects of student de­
corum were the subject of a giant mass meet­
ing in 1908 at which a Student Union was 
formed “for the future settlement of all class 
matters and the maintenance of college cus­
toms and traditions.”

The students agreed that during fall and 
spring terms, except Sundays, all frosh must 
wear an official brown cap with vizor and 
gray button, and sub-frosh a similar cap, gray 
with black button.

“No student shall be allowed to loaf 
around the college barber shop,” they voted.
“Only seniors may wear stiff hats about 

the campus.

“A time-honored tradition at M.A.C. is 
that no student shall smoke on the campus.”

Trip to Ann Arbor
When M.A.C. played Michigan at Ann 

Arbor in 1910, students jammed a spe­

cial train. One described the trip:

“On the morning of the eventful day, the 
crowds began to gather, the band appeared, 
and then the team appeared and the march 
down Farm Lane began—a yelling, happy, 
excited bunch with all confidence in the team 
and talking, about a score of 6 to 0 in favor of 
the ‘Aggies.’

“Arriving at Ann Arbor, the first thought 
was for something to eat. And to satisfy this 
enormous hunger the eating places were filled 
to overflowing.

This is the M.A.C. Union musical revue of 1921, “Campus 
Days.” Revues were a popular student activity for years.

the 

“Then came 

trip homeward—the 
merry ones roaming the train from end to end 
and giving vent to song and story, the sleepy 
one lying curled up in the dark end of the 
car—and then the water which came splash­
ing onto him! It was a trip full of life and 
enjoyment, one long to be remembered.”

A record crowd turned out for dedication of the new football stadium on Oct. 11, 1924. A post-war resurgence in athletics 
was underway, and hopes for the future were not dampened by the fact that Michigan defeated State this time, 7 to 0.

The Aggie football teams had been a- 
building and in 1913 roared into sudden 
glory. No longer the “farmers,” they wal­
loped first Michigan, then Wisconsin by scores 
of 12 to 7, and with eight victories and no de­
feats laid claim without serious challenge to 
the title of “Champions of the West.”

Chester L. Brewer brought State to ath­
letic recognition, and John D. Macklin car­
ried on beginning in 1910. The Aggies de­
feated Michigan again in 1915, this time by 
24 to 0, a margin of victory which was to 
remain for 36 years as the largest by any State 
team over the Wolves.

Greeks win right 
to own homes

There were more than 2,000 students at 

State in 1914; enrollment had doubled in 
less than 10 years. The housing problem, al­
ways difficult in the East Lansing community 
where there were few homes to accommodate 
students who did not live in dormitories, be­
came more acute each year. It was at this 
period that fraternity and sorority housing 
made its appearance at the College.

The State Board of Agriculture voted in 
1909 to encourage students to find rooms off 
campus, but the idea of private society houses 
was received with uncertainty. President Sny­
der recognized arguments that fraternity life 
tends to “seclusion and aristocracy rather than 
freedom and democracy.” But he also ac­
knowledged that “modern student life de­
mands that some students draw away from 
the student body and form fraternal communi­

ties where they may live apart from the masses 
in perhaps a freer way than the dormitory 
affords.”,

The Greeks were coming, but even their 
advent was not enough to solve the housing 
problem—and never would be.

In May, 1911, the College held services 
on the drill grounds commemorating the class 
of 1861, whose members left the campus to 
enlist in the Civil War. Veterans of the Civil 
and Spanish-American wars attended the cere­
mony, and a bronze memorial tablet was pre­
sented.

Three years later, Europe was at war, and 
in 1917 the United States entered. The Col­
lege contracted to provide vocational training 
for World War I cadets, and uniforms and 
cadence-marching quickly dominated the cam­
pus. In October, 1918, the Reserve Officers’ 
Training Corps was organized out of the old 
Students’ Army Training Corps.

But State’s contributions were greater than 
mechanic skills and military drills. The Al­
lied world was looking to America for the 
first time to meet the crushing needs for food 
and supplies in a war for freedom. Dr. Madi­
son Kuhn, in “A Short History of Michigan 
State” (1955) describes the College’s effort.

Dec. 18, 1928. Beaumont Tower is being built to mark the 
site of historic College Hall.

Shortly after World War I a grove of trees was planted in the area now surrounded by the women s 
dormitory group. The plaque dedicated the grove to State men who fought in the war.

“Both agricultural and industrial produc­
tion soared, and this was the proving point of 
the wisdom of the Morrill Act,” Dr. Kuhn 
writes, “for without an educated industrial and 
rural class, the fantastic increases in both 
types of production could not have been 
achieved. War was the catalyst, but the people 
were the magicians, and much of their magic 
was learned at colleges like Michigan State.”

Millions saved

And of America’s aid in the terrible times 

L after the war: “Perhaps it is not too much 
to say that millions of people were saved from 
starvation as the result of the inspiration and 
hard work of the Michigan Agricultural So­
ciety of 1950.”

State constructed a Union Memorial 
building in 1923 and dedicated it to World 
War soldiers. Everyone joined in the job dur­
ing “Excavation Week”—students, faculty 
and members of the Board—and the structure 
rose as a monument not just to soldiers, but 
to united effort. It was a symbol of what the 
whole world was trying to do.

Great Jenison Field House, financed with borrowed funds and P.W.A. help during the make-work depression years, was State’s 
preparation for the physical education requirements in the future years of great enrollment.

Old Wells Hall, landmark of student liv­
ing, burned in 1905. The old Mechanical Lab 
went up in flames, along with the Engineering 
building in March, 1916. Then tradition- 
auraed Williams Hall burned to a skeleton on 
Jan. 1, 1919.

Old College Hall, which stood for State, 
teetered on its foundations more than a half 
century. Alumni urged that the College “bind 
up its bruises with bands of steel” and pre­
serve it as the last monument “of the trials 
and triumphs of long ago.” The College tried, 
but the years had been too exacting and in the 
midst of reconstruction it collapsed in 1918.

Last one goes
The original brick barn had given way to 

construction of Circle Drive in 1909, and 
with collapse of College Hall, the last of the 
original buildings was gone. Two brick resi­
dences remain as evidence of the first year’s 
construction, now (1955) 
the President’s 
House and International Center.

As the landscape changed, student life 

took on a new look, too.

Ralph H. Young came as athletic director 
in 1923, and Michigan State was on its way 
to new sports greatness.

The first Water Carnival was held in 1923, 

starting a long-lasting tradition.

In 1929, State had been unable to win a football game away 
from home in six years. When the Spartans won one, fans 
swarmed to the station, carried the team to the Capitol lawn 
and screamed their exultation.

State’s first new gym proved adequate for less than 10 years. Demonstration Hall, shown here in the process of construction in 
1927, helped relieve the need for room only until the new Field House was built during the depression.

rl
he stage is set for great days to come

icine laboratory in 1910. A new dairy build­
ing was completed in 1914.

A gymnasium that represented advanced 
ideas of what might be needed at State was 
constructed in 1919, and in 1925 the College 
dedicated its new football stadium.

The Home Economics building was built 
in 1922, the $300,000 Union building in 1923, 
and the Chemistry building in 1926.

Scores of smaller buildings came with 
these, as if a magnificent stage were being set.

Bonfires before Wells Hall were a traditional part of Home­
coming celebrations in the days of State’s rise to gridiron 
eminence.

Kenyon L. Butterfield succeeded Friday as 
president of State from 1924-1928. He was 
president when the name was changed from 
M.A.C. to M.S.C.

Women’s Building—Morrill Hall-

-com-
pleted at the start of the century, was a 
monument to State’s foresight and industry.
Seven years later the great new Engineer­
ing Building was constructed, and huge, col­
onnaded Ag Hall arose to face aging College 
Hall across Circle Drive.

State’s expanding interests were repre­
sented by construction of the Veterinary Med-

A co-ed canoe excursion on the Red Cedar just before the depression years. Although the Red Cedar had long been a part 
of State’s legend, it was not until the 20th century that canoeing became a part of it. Robert S. Shaw is said to have put the first 
canoe in the Red Cedar in 1903, when he was a young professor.

State’s academic expansion opened new 

vistas in the immediate postwar period. 
Frank S. Kedzie, who succeeded Snyder as 
president in 1915, opened the applied science 
field in 1921, offering majors in nine divi­
sions.

President David Friday broke further 
from specialization in agriculture and science 
when in 1924 he won the Board’s approval 
of a course leading to a degree in arts—a gen­
eral education.

With these divisions, State had become a 
university in fact. 
Its graduate program, 
strengthened rapidly since establishment in 
1871, was respected. The curriculum, reach­
ing now far beyond the early five of agricul­

ture, home economics, engineering, forestry 
and veterinary medicine, permitted the award­
ing for the first time of the degree of Doctor 
of Philosophy.

In 1925 (Kenyon L. Butterfield was presi­
dent), the State Board called attention of the 
legislature to the shortcomings of the Col­
lege’s name and petitioned for a change. The 
legislators agreed, and selected “Michigan 
State College of Agriculture and Applied 
Science.” In short, Michigan State.

MSC: On the eminence where State’s College hall was built a 
century ago to open a new era in education, Beaumont Tower 
stands in 1955 as a symbol of the will and ideals of the men who 
brought higher education to the common man.

For the future: Vision

the Principles 

Beaumont Tower rose on the hill in the 
heart of Michigan State’s circle in 1928, sig­
nificant of the past in marking the site of old 
College Hall, significant of the future in re­
minding that the ideals of the College would 
not be forgotten.

Enrollment had risen to 3,800 and the 
campus had spread across the Red Cedar, but 
greater days were yet to come as State evolved 
into one of the world’s great universities under 
the influence of two events of world impor­
tance—the 1929-37 depression and its public 
works programs, and the 1939-45 World War 
II with its tremendous utilization of Land 
Grant college resources and attendant up­
surge in enrollment.

Two great figures stood at the head of 
Michigan State in this period: Robert Sidey 
Shaw and John Alfred Hannah.

Men and women from all over Michigan come to State to 
participate in “short courses,” a form of adult education which 
set a new pattern in college services.

An original (1857) building, altered many times as it served 
different functions, Cowles House today serves as the resi­
dence of the president. This picture was made in the 30’s.

Interior of Demonstration Hall, just after completion in 1927. 
The court was used for polo, but the sport failed to “catch 
on” at State.

The mortar was still wet in Kedzie Chem­

istry, the Library, and Demonstration Hall 
when Shaw ascended to the presidency in 
1928. The world was in the grip of inflation 
and everybody was prosperous—except the 
farmer.

The economic collapse of 1929 plunged 
Shaw and State into circumstances almost no 
one had foreseen. But if people couldn’t work 
—there were no jobs—they could study.

A Graduate school was established in 
1930. The whole curriculum was revised, 
bringing formal recognition by the Associa­
tion of American Universities. More—many 
more—students were coming, and Shaw an­
ticipated them.

A loan of $4,062,500 from banks and in­
surance companies, to be repaid from rev­
enues, was coupled with a $1,586,500 Public 
Works Administration (PWA) grant, and 
there arose on the campus five dormitories, 
Jenison Field house, a music building, Olin 
Memorial hospital, and a power plant. WPA 
aid added roads, bridges, and new drainage.
President Shaw was a dedicated man, and 
his administration, ending with his retirement 
in 1941, marked a time of great accomplish­
ment under great difficulty.

Must prepare

A t Shaw’s side in the years of his building 
l\. stood John Hannah, Secretary of the 
College. He succeeded to the presidency in 
1941 with the firm belief that the troubles 
then bursting upon the world would end with 
new demands for education.

“We must have things ready,” he said.

Michigan State’s first Library building was the 1881 structure now used as Administration building. This Library, built in 1928, 
was adequate for comparatively few years and is being replaced now (1955) by a new structure.

Every resource of Michigan State was 
made available to the government in the try­
ing days of World War II. Students and staff 
were sent into the armed services; Army and 
Air Force personnel came to the campus for 
specialized training. That was President Han­
nah’s immediate task.

When in 1944 he warned that the College 
must prepare to serve the educational needs 
of veterans he was looking to the future with 
the vision that has marked his entire adminis­
tration.

For the future
A major step was establishment in 1944 of 

Basic College, a startlingly modern ex­
pression of the long-respected concept of dis­
ciplined study.

Then came a School of Business and Pub­
lic Service, and a School of Education. The 
Continuing Education program was set up for

all adult education work outside the field of 
agriculture, a daring move to make all of the 
school’s resources available to all the people.

Descendant of the class rushes of earlier days is the annual 
tug-of-war between freshmen and sophomores over the Red 
Cedar. Loser gets dunked.

Keyto continued service of Land Grant colleges is research. At State, students 
learn techniques of research while instructors carry it on at advanced 
levels. Two men here work in an Ag Hall laboratory in the 30’s.

In the midst of his postwar programs, 
President Hannah served 18 months as Assist­
ant Secretary of Defense, under President 
Eisenhower. His belief in service to society 
expressed itself in many assignments of civic 
responsibility.

The growth of the university in plant, 
service, and scope has been a major contribu­
tion, but with this President Hannah has 
helped State to fuller realization of the liberal 
and technical goals which its founders con­
ceived in 1850.

■■■

A. J. Clark, head of the chemistry department in 1926, laid 
the cornerstone of the Kedzie Chemistry building.

While he was guiding State toward for­

mal recognition as a university, Presi­
dent Hannah launched a $25,000,000 build­
ing program in 1946—classrooms, labora­
tories, living units. Later another building 
program of equal size was begun, to provide 
animal industries facilities, a new library, and 
still more living units for the ever-increasing 
student body.

An M.A.C. hurdler beats an Ohio State opponent to the tape 
in a dual meet at Old College Field in 1922. Track was 
always a major sport at State.

When State was forced across the river by demands for physical expansion, traffic over the Red Cedar 
to South Campus became a major problem. The footbridge, here in process of construction in 1939, 
was the answer. In the background, Electrical Engineering is under construction.

The war had begun in Europe when Presi­
dent Hannah took office. German armies 
were marching on Moscow, and America 
stood by tensely. Then in December of 1941 
the United States was plunged into conflict.

S

he clash of war reverberated across the 
land of the Red Cedar, and students faced 
the blunt facts of war and the necessity of 
winning it. With millions being called into 
the armed services, thousands of Spartans, 
too, became ciphers in the great sum. The 
frills of peacetime college life were set aside 
“for the duration.”

which carries advanced cadets to the point of regular army

Victory Gardening was an important civilian effort in World 
War II. Prof. Stafseth, Dean Emmons and Dean Anthony 
were enthusiasts.

There were victory forums, silk and nylon 
stocking drives, stamp pledge campaigns. Non­
credit courses were conducted in first aid, 
communications, surgical dressings and civil­
ian defense.

Volunteer students went into the fields to 
pull and top acres of beets which otherwise 
would have been lost to the supply-poor sugar 
industry because of critical manpower short­
ages.

Demands of the wartime and postwar periods of skyrocketing enrollment forced construction 
of temporary living and academic facilities on South Campus. Enrollment never dropped, 
and the familiar quonsets and barracks were needed for the many years required to replace 
them with permanent structures.

GI’s to College,
A New 

Day Dawns

President Hannah summoned students to 
convocations and advised them of the trends 
of war and college and what they might mean 
in the future. To service-bound graduates in 
1942 he said: “I regret to see you go, but 
more than that I envy your vigor and your 
youth and I know you will do your job well.”
The Junior R.O.T.C. came to the campus, 
and then the Army Specialized Training stu­
dents who attended classes with professors on 
wartime assignment. Their training was equiv­
alent to one and one-half to two years of col­
lege, in 36 to 48 weeks.

Among the comparatively few “ivy-covered walls” on State’s 
mushrooming and modern campus are those on Forestry, built 
in 1901. This served first as a dairy building.

Everyone took part in Victory Gardening during World War II and the girls—wives of faculty and students—were eager harvesters. 
The College provided gardening sites, plenty of advice, and a convenient source for supplies and equipment.

The 

thousands of uniformed men who 
swarmed over Michigan State’s wartime 
campus were an integral part of the College 
life and personality. They took part in the 
programs that survived war’s time-rations, 
were leaders in all student activities, assisted 
on student publications.

In the spring of 1945, most trainees left 
Michigan State. On May 2, Berlin fell to 
American troops, and five days later Germany 
surrendered unconditionally. Then after the 
atom bomb, Japan capitulated on Sept. 2. The 
war was over, and GI’s packed their Bills of 
Rights and headed for college.

The Band Shell, backed up against the Red Cedar and in the “front yard” of the huge Auditorium, is one of the most popular 
gathering places for visitors. Summer concerts and a number of student shows put it to good use.

Among the innovations facing the vet­
erans who came to Michigan State was Basic 
College, the “new look” in education.

President Hannah and the faculty created 
this out of the idea that all students should 
progress through the same plan, whether their 
aims be scholastic, professional or scientific. 
By requiring that everybody take five out of

way to Macklin Field. It stands for State’s athletic prowess.

seven—later cut to four—“core” courses, 
they proposed to give a broader foundation 
to specialized training, give students new 
opportunities to explore their interests, im­
prove the basis for measuring educational 
attainment, and free students to work at their 
own rates.

Ten years’ experience have established the 
wisdom of this method of effectuating the 
basic aim of the Land Grant colleges, to pro­
duce well-rounded citizens.

To guard student health and provide needed away-from-home 
care is the function of Olin Memorial, with modern hospi­
talization and medical facilities available to every student.

Modem, glittering Shaw Hall, facing the Red Cedar on the east side of Farm Lane, represents a major step in State’s unending 
struggle to serve its growing enrollment. It was built just after World War II to house 1,500 men, one of the largest dormitories 
in the world.

Making room for married veterans intro­

duced a new feature to the campus. 
By February, 1946, a handful of trailers 
huddled together in a barren area opposite 
Jenison Field Flouse. Two years later there 
were 450, set up neatly in sections organized 
around their own utility houses, recreation 
halls and cooperative stores.

It was a village with a personality. Its 
theme was friendliness, its language a polyglot 
of GI slang, academic jargon, and plain back- 
fence domestic talk that quickly accepted new 
members and made them feel at home. Grad­
uates have written thousands of words about 
life in “Fertile Valley” and the difficulties of 
maintaining a home there, but not in regret.

Spartan city grows
Permanent married housing was begun in 

December, 1946, in an area formerly 
used for grazing. Soon 275 rambling build­
ings housed 1,100 individual apartment units 
there.

Carpenters, plumbers, electricians and 
road builders bolted about the area putting 
on finishing touches while caravans of cars

loaded with household goods rutted the lanes 
with their travel. The ex-GI’s heaved and 
lugged furniture, hung lines for the always- 
flying diapers, and in general made their apart­
ments livable. The area soon elected its own 
governing body, “The Board of Regents,” and 
named itself “Spartan City.”

Berkey Hall, completed in time to serve the great influx of 
veterans after World War II, was the largest building in the 
world used exclusively for classrooms.

Dr. John Alfred Hannah succeeded to the presidency of Michigan State in 1941, guided the College through the war and post­
war years. His foresight and energy were a decisive part of the growth which skyrocketed Michigan State into the ranks of the 
greatest universities of the world.

'he veteran was a serious-minded student 
JL intent on getting everything he could from 
his educational opportunity. His intellectual 
curiosity had profound effects not only on 
academic but on extra-curricular life.

Student activities have grown to maturity. 
The student daily newspaper, the Michigan 
State News, is one of the nation’s best; the 
yearbook ranks with the best in the university 
world.

Student government is a mature and effec­
tive solution to the problem of maintaining a 
democratic atmosphere in a community of 
15,000 vigorous, thoughtful Americans.

Campus life is organized on a scale and 
with a scope and efficiency that do credit to 
State’s community consciousness. 
If any­
where in the world, it is the training ground 
for a capable citizenry.

Married students became a major part of State’s enrollment 
in the post-war period of educating veterans of World War II.

The athletic plant at Michigan State expanded to serve the demands of the College’s great growth. This 1952 aerial photograph 
shows Macklin stadium, with seats for more than 50,000, Demonstration Hall, with its ice rink, and Jenison Fieldhouse with a 
capacity of more than 10,000 basketball spectators.

Athletics at Michigan State, as every­
where, were de-emphasized in the war years, 
and swept up in quick revival afterwards. 
Clarence L. (Biggie) Munn became football 
coach in 1947 and started building greatness. 
In 1948, Michigan State celebrated its coming- 
of-age with admission into the Western (Big 
Ten) Conference.

To the Rose Bowl
State ran up a quick string of victories in 

major and minor sports, with several 
championships, and in 1951 and 1952 bid for 
national recognition as a football power. In 
1953, the Spartans were national champions, 
tied Illinois for the Big Ten title, and won a 
coveted place in the New Year’s Day Rose 
Bowl game in California.

Climax of State’s athletic advances was its acceptance into the 
Western (Big Ten) Conference in 1948, headlined here in 
the student newspaper.

Starting in the 30’s, State began constructing women’s dormitories in the area which once held Faculty Row, facing Circle Drive. 
There were Mayo, Williams and Campbell halls, and then in 1945-48, Landon, Yakeley and Gilchrist. This is the entrance to 
modem Gilchrist, in 1955.

Enrollment at Michigan State at this cen­

tennial date has risen past 15,000 and 

is expected to double that by 1970.

Much of the great modern building was 
financed, not with appropriations, but 
with borrowed funds to be repaid from 
earnings, “without expense to the pub­
lic.”

Students study in 126 curricula in nine 
schools, Agriculture, Business and Public 
Service, Education, Engineering, Home Eco­
nomics, Science and Arts, Veterinary Medi­
cine, Graduate Studies, and Basic College. 
There are 65 curricula on the graduate level.
The central campus of 570 acres adjoins 
3,200 acres of farmland. There are 130 per­
manent buildings, nearly 1,000 temporary 
structures, a $70,000,000 plant.

State has 386 agent-representatives, in all 
Michigan’s 83 counties. 
It serves 500,000 
people through research, special courses and 
community programs.

Michigan State has reached beyond the 
state and nation to establish educational proj­
ects in the Ryukyus Islands, Colombia, Viet 
Nam, and Brazil.

Its faculty of 2,000 stand with its 50,000 
living alumni in proud representation of the 
eighth largest university in the nation.

Continued expansion of Michigan State’s campus brought construction in 1954-55 on the West side of Harrison road. These are 
Butterfield and Rather Halls in the ultra-modem living unit area being constructed for both single and married students.

At the Founders’ Day banquet, Feb. 12, 
1955, observing Michigan State’s 100th anni­
versary, President Hannah expressed his— 
and State’s idea of an educated man in today’s 
world.

Educated Man
Such a man, he said, will have been edu­

cated to contribute : to the economic well­
being to the limit of his creative and produc­
tive skills; to social stability by his under­
standing of the world around him and by his 
tolerance for the rights and opinions of others; 
to moral stability by his acceptance and prac­
tice of such fundamental principles as per­
sonal honor and integrity, belief in a good 
God, and government by law instead of men; 
to political stability by his reasoned, thinking 
approach to public issues, his rejection of 
demagogic appeals, and his ability to lead or 
follow with equal intelligence.

Michigan State’s founders, he said, saw 
the need for such education, and thus it is 
that the university this year dedicates itself 
“to the great unfinished work.”

A significant achievement in State’s cen­
tennial year was winning formal recognition 
of its status through a change in its name to

Continuing Education, the field of adult education in which 
State performs a major service to the people of Michigan and 
the nation, annually brings scores of conferences to the campus.

Michigan State University of Agriculture and 
Applied Science.

Though long deserved, the change was not 
achieved without struggle, for the University 
of Michigan contended vigorously before 
Michigan’s legislature that the combination 
of the words Michigan and university in a 
name were its sole right. The bill to change 
the name passed the legislature on April 13, 
and was signed by Lieutenant Governor Philip 
A. Hart on April 21. Thus the diplomas of 
the first general graduating class in the second 
century of Michigan State — those of June, 
1955 — will bear a university designation for 
the first time.

Gov. G. Mennen Williams said of the 
change: 
“Everyone agrees that Michigan 
State is a university in every sense of the 
word.”

Ornate Kellogg Center for Continuing Education in 1954 
accommodated more than 160,000 participants in conferences 
and short courses. It is the seat of programs which annually 
serve hundreds of thousands of residents of state and nation, 
and is the nation’s largest laboratory for hotel training.

Out of the scrub-oak muckland with which 
it started, Michigan State has created one of 
the most beautiful campuses in the nation. 
Its 16 miles of roadways and 38 miles of walks 
lead through a gently rolling garden that has 
preserved its beauty despite the pressures of 
20th century construction and traffic.

Principles and vision
Glittering modern buildings meld with 

the ivied walls of older structures in a 
blend of new with old, of founders’ principles 
that are respected today as in their day, with 
the bright developments of progressive re­
search and clear vision. This is Michigan 
State University.

Tame ducks swarm over picturesque Red Cedar.

George A. Cracraft, class of ’54, writes 
his impressions of four years at Michigan 
State. It is a life, he said, of trying to find 
time to do many things.

“From the first football game to com­
mencement at Macklin Stadium in late spring, 
each day offers something new.

“The campus itself is a constantly chang­
ing panorama of beauty. Fall offers a serene 
portrait of falling leaves that cover the ground 
and swish at every step. Then the pine tree 
imported from China turns into a figurine of 
ice and snow. Spring melts the ice on the Red 
Cedar and Shaw Hall echoes with challenges 
to “ride the rapids.” And then the school year 
is over. But there is always next year, and 
when vacation is over and it’s time to return, 
the campus always seems just a little more 
beautiful.

“Every student graduates with a store of 
memories. Having to stay up until the early 
hours studying for final exams while listening 
to a New Orleans disc jockey tell of life on 
Bourbon street—it’s the only station you can 
find. Going to the laboratory on Saturday 
morning and quickly checking the week’s ex­
periment, finally forgetting to make a record 
in the rush to change for the football game. 
Laughing at the freshman awe that once made 
you cut classes in Double-E for two weeks 
because you couldn’t find it and were ashamed 
to ask.

be remembered

while his baseball team slugged its way to a 
Big Ten championship. Feeling your hands 
become limp from applauding James Melton

about that balding professor being a Pulitzer

2055a.d Michigan State

Observes its Bi-Centennial

“The coins of yesterday will not pay the 
bills of tomorrow,” said President Hannah of 
Michigan State’s 100th anniversary. “It is in 
the future that we must do the unfinished 
work to which our Centennial theme dedi­
cates our efforts.”

We may look to 1970, when there may 
be 30,000 students at Michigan State Univer­
sity; when the problem of war or peace may 
have been settled; when a cure for cancer may 
have been discovered, and automobile driving 
is safe. What then of 1990? and later?

One day Michigan State will observe its 
Bi-Centennial. It will be the year 2055, and 
many infants alive today will grow to see it.
For a sober, calculated look at what that 
day may be like, the Wolverine has asked 
Prof. William Roe of Administrative and 
Educational Services to prognosticate, to ex­
tend for 100 years the lines of study which 
are drawn today in the educational, social 
and industrial laboratories of the world. On 
the following pages he presents to readers of 
the 100th Anniversary Wolverine an idea of 
what the 200th Anniversary issue may include 
between its covers.

With the freedom of an author, Prof. Roe 
has transplanted himself to the campus of 
Michigan State University on May 19, 2055.
He sees, at first, a lack-lustre place, with­
out the rah-rah spirit of the 20th century, 
without the young, pretty girls and nonchalant 
young men of those days.

Beaumont Tower, bright but strange- 
looking in an ornate and over-formal atmos­
phere, stands on its hill. There are only two 
other structures in the Circle area, the ven­
erated Administration Building and the out­
moded Library Annex, the main library of 
1928-54.

There are swans on the Red Cedar in­
stead of ducks. A nuclear reactor fills old 
Macklin Stadium. Parking meters service 
motor-scooter helicopters, and the only four- 
wheel vehicles in sight are service trucks. It 
is a strange day, made stranger by the odd 
mixture of 2055 architecture with the rem­
nants of the 1955 campus.

Then Prof. Roe strikes a conversation 
with Luther (Gus) Gunnison, the gist of 
which he relates in the following article.

Greek homes lining M.A.C. avenue north of the campus make up a lively area known as “Sorority Row.

Gus was a friendly character. He took me 

on a tour of State’s quiet, business-like 
campus after explaining he was one of the 
30,000 graduate students who made up almost 
the entire student body.

Enrollment had been frozen at 30,000, 
years before, and was limited now to gradu­
ate workers, with the exception of 1,800 chil­
dren in the experimental school.

And so we talked of universities and edu­

cation, as of 2055.

Gus laughed at the idea of grades.
“Our students progress according to their 
‘orthodox’ age,” he said. “This is something 
we establish from social, mental, emotional, 
and physical growth and a test-determined 
factor we know as X2—something you may 
have called initiative, drive, or ambition.”

Symbolic bas-reliefs decorate the face of the modem Physics- 
Math building, an important post-war addition to the campus.

In the Ryukyus Islands, State maintains a small “university” 
to help raise the standard of living of a people struggling to 
keep their freedom. This is a typical classroom.

I told him I had expected more students.
“Our students are all over the state,” he 
explained. “Every boy and girl is expected to 
complete the college curriculum, which com­
bines the practical and the theoretical—the 
vocational and the academic. It is meaning­
ful and useful to everyone who is educable.”

“Educable?”
“We use that term for everyone who is 

capable of learning.”

State adds its share to the tremendously expanding field of 
nuclear research in the mid-20th century.

A two-lane boulevard divides the campus of Michigan State from a compact, busy business district in 1955.

Gus explained that “long ago,” the dem­
onstrated need for socially effective use of 
increasing leisure had forced introduction of 
“avocational” interests into general education. 
He was most enthusiastic about it.

“The latent creative ability of youth has 
been developed miraculously in all media, 
archaeology, carpentry, music, die-making— 
you see, a person’s avocation today is as im­
portant to society as his vocation.”

Local faculties

Adult education had been superseded on 

l. a state-wide scale. The University had 
a local faculty in all major population centers, 

Gus said, and they not only taught formally, 
and provided counsel, but made the Univer­
sity’s, in fact, the world’s educational re­
interpret community 
sources available 
needs and develop research.

to 

Television studies, involving experience in actual production 
through the university’s own station, are a major part of 
Michigan State’s development of the skills of communications.

The Water Carnival, started in 1923, is a well-established tradition and 
magnificent function each year in the mid-20th century.

The J-Hop, destined to be longest-lasting of student traditions, 
is held these days in the campus’ own Auditorium. Couples 
at this 1954 “Prom” are dancing the “Bunny Hop.”

“When communities have a problem, and 
we find the answer, we demonstrate it by tele­
vision, or send specialists into the community.” 
More people over 70 are using these re­

sources than ever before, he added.

Gus’ description of University activities 
did not startle me, because I had seen the 
seeds planted with our sponsorship of the 
University of The Ryukyus and our assistance 
in raising the standards of living in South 
America, Asia, and other parts of the world.

Joins Federation

I was pleased to hear that through the lead­

ership of President Hannah, MSU had 
been able in 1975 to join a Federated World 

University which utilized resources of all uni­
versities of the world, both public and private, 
to solve problems of literally universal im­
port.

I was fully prepared to hear about a biotic 
pill and ray treatment to stimulate brain 
growth and capacity for learning. This was 
still experimental, although science had made 
phenomenal advances in replacing worn out 
body parts and extending normal longevity 
to 106 years.

Macklin Field stadium, built in 1924 and expanded in 1948, seats more than 50,000 for days of Spartan gridiron glory.

“Doesn’t this create serious psychological 

and social problems?”

“No. We simply set up a teaching pattern 
adapted to the individual. It is carried on 
through college, and no one expects a person 
to exceed his proven capacity.”

People in graduate work, Gus explained, 
follow an informal pattern using the faculty 
principally for resource, counseling, and lead­
ership.

At the end of the 1953 football season, State’s team, No. 1 
in the nation, went to the California Rose Bowl for the annual 
New Year’s Day spectacle. State’s queen, Jan Somers, rode 
the Michigan float in the pre-game parade.

Well-drilled student units with colored cards 
create decorative designs among football crowds. 
These were known as “Block S” groups in their 
first year, 1953.

Research was still going on in extra­
sensory perception and electronic transmis­
sion of thought waves, and—Gus grimaced— 
some people were still laughing. But the well- 
informed had demonstrated real hopes for the 
future in this area.

“I suppose you are able to measure learn­

ing potential scientifically?” I ventured.

“Yes, with the electro-encephlogram. It 
is used in every school, and we predict a child’s 
future capabilities with 97 per cent accuracy.”

looking east with the Union and “Home Ec” building at the left and Morrill Hall through the trees.
Parking meters are a necessary adjunct to traffic control on the swarming campus.

Educational 3D color television rooms 
were scattered throughout the campus. These, 
Gus explained, were lively centers of learning, 
but they did not replace the personal contact 
of the on-campus instructor. Rather, they 
complemented his work.

“If special consultant help is desired in

any learning situation, we beam in on New 
York, Berlin, Tokyo, or wherever we can get 
assistance,” he explained. “Professors all 
over the world are available on regular sched­
ule, and after they lecture, we may question 
them, or advanced students may demonstrate 
research.”

The “Big Rock,” class of ’73 memorial, is a picturesque part of the scenic inner circle of State’s 1955 campus.

Field study trips were available from the 

campus to any place in the world. They 

were commonplace, I was informed.

It was obvious that an international lan­
guage, which Gus said was adopted in 2015, 
made this an international learning situation. 
And incidentally, a new world understanding 
of groups, races, and nations had developed.
Writing was almost a lost classroom art. 
Every student had a tele-corder which re­
corded lectures and produced typewritten 
copies. In addition, a recording could be pro­
duced.

“Students put the playback speaker under 
their pillows and as they sleep their subcon­
scious absorbs what the record plays.”

The day had come, Gus boasted, to scoff 
at memorization as a lower mental process.
“We emphasize analysis, thought, and the 

knowledge of where to obtain facts.”

Most students at MSU attended on gov­
ernment scholarships. They received enough 
to attend school even while married and rais­
ing families, which reminded me of the 1945 
GI bill and State’s “Fertile Valley.”

Values returned
Graduate work and special intensive pro­

fessional study and internship were con­
sidered a part of the preparation necessary 
for maintaining a high standard of living in 
2055. The value of these scholarships was 
returned to the communities many times over 
in benefits from research and service, I was 
assured.

I questioned whether these 2055 methods 
might not develop an “intellectual elite,” but 
Gus made it clear that philosophy studies and 
social science research had affixed real mean­
ing to the concept of the worth of an indi­
vidual and his contribution to the world.

“A man,” Gus said, “is accepted as a man. 
There is no such thing as intellectual, aca­
demic, or social snobbery.

the site of the original three buildings in the small clearing in the center of the 676 acres which the state purchased as an experi­
ment. This 1955 vista sweeps across $70,000,000 worth of buildings, 130 of them permanent, 1,000 temporary. Adjoining the 
570 acres which are the core of the campus are 3,200 acres of farmland. There are more than 15,000 students, and Michigan 
State University is the eighth largest in the nation.

The worth of man

“Man is expected to serve himself and 
society to the limit of his own intellectual or 
creative capacity, not the intellectual or crea­
tive capacity of some one else.”

Scholarships for graduate work, Gus went 
on, were awarded on the basis of individual 
capacities and desires, not on false values 
established on the premise “that only one pro­
fession, or intellectual or creative pursuit, is 
socially or academically respectable.”

/ mKM

Gus’ overwhelming sincerity and crystal­
line intellect impressed me with the gigantic 
scope of this 2055 educational operation. It 
left me with one burning question, however. 
“What about the University of Michigan?” 
“Oh, that!” Gus permitted himself a re­
laxed smile. “Years ago, the two universities 
realized that by putting aside their rivalries, 
they could work together for the benefit of all 
of the people of the State of Michigan and of 
the world.”

Michigan State’s founders were men of prophetic vision. 
How else do we account for the fact that in establishing here 
a college to meet the needs of that day they laid foundations 
of strength and adaptability sufficient for a university of 
size and scope to meet the needs of an expanding economy and 
a society growing constantly more complex and diversified?

Consider how well they built: Teaching was its original 

basic function, but it has expanded naturally into research 
and extension as the missions of higher education have been 
revised and expanded; from serving the needs of farmers, it 
has enlarged its program to support the aspirations of other 
economic groups as they have emerged; to original emphasis 
upon vocational training it has added emphasis upon teaching 
young people how to enrich their lives culturally and to be 
more effective citizens; by serving our State well, it has 
earned the privilege of serving the Nation, and, of late, of 
extending a helping hand to needful people in other lands.

This Michigan State has been able to do by keeping ever 

in mind that in the last analysis, only people are important.

The significance of Michigan State’s 100th 

anniversary celebration is not in its past, 
although that is rich in tradition and accom­
plishment; nor is it in the present, awake with 
the responsibilities of a world facing monu­
mental problems. It is in the future, in what 
it can add to education and life for coming 
students and citizens that Michigan State jus­
tifies its centennial celebration.

The past is important to Michigan State 
as a teacher, as a guide as to what the univer­
sity should seek to accomplish in its second 
century. In studying the ideas and ideals of 
the early crusaders for an agricultural school, 
the drive and enthusiasm of its first faculty 
and students, the wisdom and initiative of its 
teachers and administrators who have brought 
the university to its present position, Michigan 
State prepares for the future.

The accomplishments of the college 
founded in the backwoods of Michigan reach 
out over the earth to touch the lives of people 
everywhere. The aims and objectives which 
the university has kept ever in mind, tempered 
by the maturity of one hundred years of serv­
ice, have established a pattern of democratic 
living and democratic education which the 
world has emulated.

Inspired by the Michigan experiment, the 
United States Congress, in 1862, passed the 
Morrill Act, to establish on a nationwide basis 
the kind of higher educational system which 
was being pioneered at the Michigan Agricul­
tural College. The contributions to society of 
the land-grant colleges and universities and 
of the graduates of these institutions trained 
in the spirit which they share has been keenly 
felt in all fields of endeavor.

The Farmers’ Institutes, which the Col­
lege established early in its career, have served 
not only as the basis for Michigan State’s 
widespread Continuing Education Service and 
adult education program, but has been the 
pattern from which most other extension pro­
grams in the United States have been shaped.
The experimental and research work 
which has been carried out at Michigan State 
and at other land-grant institutions has added 
immeasurably to the standard of living of our 
people and has served as the basis for many 
of the recent advances in science.

The responsibility charged to Michigan 
State upon its founding has not been changed. 
It has added to it significantly, however, in 
seeking to serve the world over, in seeking to 
prepare men for their roles as citizens and as 
leaders. It has taken the job and done it well.

Orientation tests during Welcome Week brought many a furrowed brow as freshmen encountered their 
first college exams. Those who had trouble with these tests found they had to include one of the three 
improvement classes in their schedule.

Three buildings in the middle of a clearing were all that 
greeted the first Michigan State freshman class in 1857. 
Those sixty-one students, who enrolled at the first land 
grant college in the United States, came from farms by 
ox cart, horseback or on foot. They came looking for a 
new way of life as well as a new means of living.

This fall MSC welcomed 4,679 new students to its 
campus. Each freshman class may differ in appearance 
from previous classes, but they are all eager to embark 
on an education that will prepare them for the future. 
MSC has accepted the challenge by expanding into nine 
schools to meet the needs of this increase in enrollment.

A freshman looks skeptically at the trousers of his ROTC Uniform. 
Since he is not a veteran, he must include military science in his 
schedule for the first two years.

A crowded dance floor doesn’t bother freshmen who are eager to 
make new friends. Dances and mixers attracted large numbers as 
students forgot temporarily the rigors of classroom work.

The first day on campus found the new freshmen, just 

as that first freshmen class, eager, but unsure. They began 

to feel more at home as the last suitcase was unpacked 

and they had a chance to meet their new roommates.

Monday morning the freshman class gathered in the 

auditorium where they were 

introduced to President 

Hannah and other administrative personnel. They received 

detailed instructions and programs for the testing schedule 

and the social activities during their first week of college.

Orientation week assumed a new name this year— 

Welcome Week—but it still meant many confusing hours 

for the freshmen who were easy to recognize, as map in 

hand, they attempted to find their way from the Union 

to the Auditorium. Many an experienced upperclassman 

had to resist the temptation to misguide the new students 

in the direction of South Campus.

Standing in lines became a frequent occurrence during 

Welcome Week as long hours were spent waiting for books, 

ROTC uniforms and coffee. By the end of the week many 

freshmen had even developed the “grill habit”; they didn’t 

realize the many hours they would be spending in that 

popular coffee spot during the next four years.

Pre-Welcome Week at the YM-YWCA camp showed frosh rigors 
of registration, including that dreaded flu shot.

Receptions, tests claim attention

The Union was closed to all but the freshmen the evening of the 
President’s reception, giving President Hannah and his staff an oppor­
tunity to extend a warm welcome to new students.

Welcome Week was climaxed by that much dreaded 
event, registration, where fees are paid and schedules are 
arranged and rearranged. Enrollment officers were a valu­
able aid in helping freshmen to decide which courses to 
take and how to fill out those countless blanks.

Freshmen had an opportunity to observe MSC’s much 
publicized football team at an afternoon pep rally before 
the players left for their contest with Iowa.

With tests and registration over, freshmen found a full 
weekend of activities to choose from. Friday evening they 
had to decide between a square dance, an informal dance 
in the Union and the Delta Street Shuffle.

Closing out Welcome Week activities on Saturday eve­
ning was “Collegiate Capers.” The dance, sponsored by 
the student government, gave freshmen an opportunity to 
meet many other new students and become a part of the 
important social life at Michigan State.

Drives bleed Spartans

A total of 773 donors were signed to give blood during the first day 
of registration for the Veterans’ Club drive. Representatives visited 
each living unit to encourage students to reach the 3,000 pint goal 
set for the drive. Blood from the drive goes initially to the Lansing 
Regional Blood Bank of the American Red Cross,

Coeds can no longer be accused of being the weaker sex. They have 
consistently outnumbered the men in total donations every drive.

The sophomore class now has the reputation of bleeding 

the best. In a class participation contest during the blood 

drive sponsored by the Veterans’ Club, the sophomores 

won with 12.4 percent. The junior class, which made the 

challenge initiating the contest, placed third with 10.7 per­

cent of their members donating. Faculty and staff members 

helped to boost the number of donations.

The total of 1,851 pints was not enough to break the 

record of 2,129 pints set in an ROTC-sponsored drive last 

spring. This remains the record for eastern universities 

and is surpassed only by Stanford which had 4,600 pints 

in one drive.

Career opportunities for Spartans

Eager students visit displays erected by business concerns through­
out the country. Both employers and students are anxious to put 
on a good showing and recognize the Career Carnival as being a 
good opportunity to meet each other.

Even coeds were fascinated by the engineering displays.

The second floor of the Union had changed overnight. 

As the elevator opened, students stood and blinked; 

Spartans were crowded around brightly colored booths 

talking to representatives from companies from all over 

the country. But it wasn’t that idle chatter heard across 

the table in the grill; it was important talk, talk about 

future jobs.

Not only seniors, looking for contacts after graduation, 

but students from every class were talking to company 

representatives to see how their college training was going 

to fit in once they graduated.

The sixth annual Career Carnival brought representa­

tives from seventy business and 

industrial firms and 

government agencies. On the opening night of the two- 

day show the representatives attended a banquet sponsored 

for them by the student committee and the Placement 

Bureau, co-planners of the Carnival.

“Most students didn’t ask us enough questions,” was 

the comment made by several businessmen. Representa­

tives feel that the Carnival is of considerable value to their 

concerns, and displays, some costing as much as $4,000, 

were erected to attract interested students.

Engineering on display

Spartans were surprised one day, spring term, to see a 
group of midget autos racing on Circle Drive. This was 
the event that touched off the sixth annual, weekend-long, 
Engineering Exposition.

Five professional engineering societies entered cars in 
the contest, and the winner in a close race was the Society 
of Automotive Engineers. Jan Somers, queen of the engi­
neers, presented the winning driver the first place trophy.

MSC engineering groups and high school students staged 
over 1,000 exhibits in Olds Hall and the Electrical Engi­
neering Building.

Completing the display were exhibits by several national 
industries, which proved to be a major attraction. The 
General Motors’ Parade of Progress and Bell Telephone’s 
exhibit on the recent developments in communication, ran 
continuously during the weekend of the Exposition.

Visitors wandered into laboratories and classrooms, 
talking to instructors who attempted to answer their ques­
tions about the complex apparatus. Parents attending the 
exhibition had an opportunity to see the kind of projects 
engineering students undertake and the exceptional facili­
ties MSC offers them. High school students interested in 
engineering talked with engineers who described oppor­
tunities in this field.

machine which will light a fluorescent bulb without the use of

Souvenirs of small MSC aluminum footballs, which had 
been cast by students in foundry classes, were presented 
to the audience as they viewed the exhibit.

Several engineering groups combined their skill to pro­
duce a working model of the Michigan Avenue bridge. 
A $50 savings bond was presented to an outstanding 
student for his winning entry of a binaural sound system 
in the student engineering contest.

The Exposition closed Saturday evening with an address 
by Mr. Walker Cisler, president of the Detroit Edison 
Company. Mr. Cisler emphasized the growing importance 
of atomic power in the field of engineering and its world­
wide effect in the future.

A display of bi-metallic discs, being snapped from its position on 
the guide wire, was one of the most complex exhibits at the 
Exposition.

A week-long glimpse of international life

For the first time in the history of Michigan State Col­
lege the International Club, in cooperation with the Stu­
dent Government, proclaimed one full week of Spring term 
as International Week.

The week was set up on an entirely experimental basis. 
Its purpose was to familiarize the foreign students with 
American customs and traditions and in turn acquaint 
American students with the way of life in other countries 
throughout the world.

The Annual International Festival which was televised 
from the MSC campus touched off the week on Saturday 
evening, at Demonstration Hall. President John Hannah 
addressed the largest crowd ever to attend such an occasion. 
More than 300 students from MSC, both foreign and 
American, took part in this gala event. There were also 
many other foreign college students from Lansing and the 
surrounding area who entered into the program.

Booths lining the walls of Dem Hall were filled with dis­
plays of cultural objects from other countries and regional 
groups. Fifty-two countries were represented at the Inter­
national Festival.

Two days during International Week were set aside 
for foreign students to take part in panel discussions in the 
Union. The public was invited to attend these discussions 
on international topics.

the foreign displays.

Sunday afternoon Dean Thomas Osgood invited the for­
eign students to his home for a tea. This informal gather- 
ering gave the students an opportunity to become better 
acquainted and a chance to discuss their native countries. 
That evening the YMCA and the YWCA of Lansing 
arranged one of the most outstanding religious services 
ever conducted at the Alumni Chapel. This service was 
open to all foreign students at MSC which included Mos­
lem, Hindu, Jewish, and Christian faiths.

Wednesday evening, foreign students had an oppor­
tunity to view Greek life. Fraternities and sororities 
opened their houses to the students, providing buffet din­
ners and entertainment for their guests.

The week came to an end the following Sunday as the 
chimes of Beaumont Tower played the national anthem of 
each country. Senator William Fulbright closed the pro­
gram Sunday evening with an address to the foreign stu­
dents on the United Nation and the American foreign 
policy.

Queen selection begins homecoming

Queen Joyce Cosmann, Sandra Meakin, Carolyn Churchill, Colette 
Fenton and Mary Alice Ritchlin smile happily after their selection 
as the five finalists in the homecoming contest.

Homecoming queen candidates turned anxiously in their 
chairs as they waited for the final decision and began to 
think back to the events that had led up to this big 
moment.

The week’s activities had begun with the annual dinner 
for the candidates at the Delt house. This gave the coeds 
an opportunity to meet the other candidates and the 
representatives from Kappa Alpha Mu and the Senior 
Class, co-sponsors of the contest.

Spotlights were focused on each candidate Sunday after­
noon as they were introduced on the stage of the Union 
Ballroom. Then they met the judges for individual inter­
views.

The master of ceremonies brought the coeds back to the 
present, with an announcement of the five finalists. The 
tension was broken with the applause for the young ladies 
who would have to wait until the Notre Dame pep rally for 
the tapping of the queen.

To the new queen Joyce, from 1953 queen Ardeth, goes the cup.

to the Phi’s and second prize to Gamma Phi Beta.

Saturday afternoon alumni focused their attention on 

the football contest in Macklin Field, followed by a post­

game reunion for each of the classes. After reminiscing 

with fellow classmates, alumni returned to living units for 

banquets or buffet dinners before proceeding to parties or 

to the annual homecoming dance in the auditorium which 

ended the weekend.

Weather conscious Phi Delta Theta’s translated the football game 
into an extra large newspaper displaying alarming headlines for 
Purdue fans. Under sponsorship of IFC and Pan-Hel, each Greek 
living unit erected displays to welcome Homecoming visitors. To 
meet the deadline for judging, early Saturday morning, many 
workers stayed up all night building and painting.

Queen Judy reigns over Agriculture Council activities.

Formal season opens with Harvest Ball

The Music Auditorium was the scene of pre-Harvest 

The five faculty judges had a difficult choice to make 

Ball activities the week before the dance as thirty coeds, 

as they eliminated the group of candidates to ten, and 

representing each women’s living unit, competed for the 

finally to four. Suspense prevailed among the spectators 

title of Harvest Ball Queen. The contestants were inter­

as they waited for the judges to return with their final 

viewed individually by members of the Agriculture Coun­

decision. The announcement came at last, and Judy 

cil, sponsors of the annual dance.

Bradley was chosen to reign over the 1954 Harvest Ball.

Highlight of the Harvest Ball intermission was the 

crowning of Queen Judy Bradley by Dean Thomas Cowden 

of the School of Agriculture. Helping Judy to reign over 

the dance were the three members of her court, Nancy 

Brandstatter, Linda Erickson and Maxine Neely.

Harvest Ball has established the tradition of being the 

first semi-formal dance of the school year. The first Ball, 

in 1933, was staged on the fourth floor of Ag Hall by the 

Agriculture Council, sponsors of the annual all-college 

dance.

Harvest decorations take the spotlight and prove to be obstacles 
to the dancers. These pumpkins and squash probably came from 
an MSC farm to add autumn atmosphere to the 1954 Harvest Ball.

133

Squash and pumpkin decorations get a close-up inspection from 
Diane Dietle and Gail Van Drasek.

Two weeks after the opening of fall term, freshmen had 

an opportunity to attend their first semi-formal dance, the 

Harvest Ball, which officially opens autumn social activities.

For many freshmen attending the Ball, this was their first 

opportunity to visit Kellogg Center. A paper moon, cou­

pled with harvest decoration of gourds and pumpkins, 

completed the autumn scene in the ballroom. The music 

of Joe Cappo’s orchestra provided the music for the 450 

couples. Many took advantage of the Indian Summer 

weather to dance on the patio adjoining the ballroom.

Activities Carnival shows busy life

The members of Theta Alpha Phi, dramatic honorary, perform 
a little magic for the eager audience in front of their booth.

It wouldn’t be a carnival without a juggling clown in his black 
derby. Entertainment was featured at most booths.

134

Spartans, both new and old, flooded into the concourse 
of Macklin Stadium, one cold fall evening, to attend the 
annual Activities Carnival. The Carnival gave freshmen 
and new students an opportunity to look over the clubs, 
publications and other campus organizations offered at 
MSC.

Each organization constructed a booth and representa­
tives were on hand to answer questions about their 
activities. Many of the booths not only provided eye­
catching displays for their eager audience but outstanding 
entertainment as well.

Coeds were careful to obtain many of the colorful 
pamphlets from each booth which they were required to 
show housemothers to get the special late permission for 
the Carnival.

There was a genuine carnival atmosphere in the lively 
decorations, band music and the colored movies of the 
Rose Bowl parade and the MSC marching band. A major 
attraction was the French fries offered by the hotel admin­
istration students, eager to talk to prospective members.
To add to the colorful atmosphere, Spartan circus 
acrobats and the women physical gymnasts displayed their 
talent for one of the largest crowds ever to attend the 
carnival.

Jeanne Warrington serves Tom Gregory some sausage from one of 
the agriculture booths and Tom agrees with her, “It’s really good.”

The variety show presented by Alpha Epsilon Rho, the 

jazz combo at the Union Board station and the first appear­

ance of the Spartan Bell Ringers all attracted big audiences. 

As spectators rounded the windy north end of the con­

course, they found a special display of the latest foreign 

cars borrowed for the occasion from a Lansing dealer.

A grand total of ninety organizations participated in the 

Carnival, in a combined effort to show students the extra­

curricular life offered at MSC.

Generous Spartans share

“Have you given to Campus Chest?” Whether dashing 

to class on South Campus or heading for the grill, students 

were met by this question from smiling solicitors. Always 

ready with canister in hand, Campus Chest workers dotted 

the campus for the two day long solicitations drive during 

fall term. Students and faculty members who responded to 

the plea could be spotted by green and white tags bearing 

the motto: “I gave through understanding.”

The 1954 drive was the most successful conducted at 

MSC as the $4,000 goal was easily passed by the energetic 

workers and the generous givers.

“I gave through understanding.” This slogan appeared on the 
green and white tags given to contributors as they dropped their 
donations in the Campus Chest canisters.

Workers begin the long job of counting contributions. In addition
week long Campus Chest drive, funds for the charity are 

raised from Spartacade and the UMOC contest.

Campus Chest was organized several years ago to unite

all fund raising drives at MSC into one big campaign. This

More than seventy per cent of the funds collected went

The Rednose Reindeer wishes Spartans a Merry Christmas from his display case in the cafeteria.

Its Christmas Time in the Union

Christmas was officially ushered in at MSC when the 
switch was pulled to light the 106 bulbs on the college 
Christmas tree. Union Board members were ready for the 
holiday season as they added the final touch to yule deco­
rations in the Union.

Spartans even had a chance to get into the Christmas 
spirit over their early morning coffee. A huge Santa Claus 
occupied one corner of the Grill wishing students holiday 
greetings during that much dreaded final week.

Decorations didn’t end in the Grill. The concourse, 
lounge and cafeteria were all in festive dress. Students 
joined in the holiday mood when they gathered in the 
lounge to sing Christmas carols led by the Women’s Glee 
Club, the Gamma Phi’s and the Kappa Sig’s.

When exams were over, Spartans hurried home for the 
holidays, but Union Board members were among the last 
to leave as they dismantled Christmas decorations for 
another year.

137

A modernistic touch was added to Christmas decorations in the 
Union. These mobiles, hanging in the lounge, were closely exam­
ined by curious students.

Military goes social

Friday afternoon found Michigan State ROTC Cadets 
with blitz cloth and shoe brush in hand preparing for one 
of the biggest military-social events of the year, the Coro­
nation Ball. Shiny brass and shoes were a must for this all­
college dance as advanced cadets were required to attend 
in uniform.

A military atmosphere of Army and Air Force ROTC 
insignias decorated the auditorium as 900 couples danced 
to the music of Freddy Dale and the vocal arrangements 
of Vaughn Monroe.

The Coronation Ball has changed since the original one 
held in 1909 in Demonstration Hall, with only 100 couples 
attending. It was known as the “Military Ball” and was 
sponsored by the officers of the military training program 
instead of the ROTC.

A blare of trumpets announced the intermission as the 
Honorary Cadet Colonels were escorted down a row of 
raised sabers by the members of the Officers Club, and the 
Arnold Air Society, co-sponsors of the dance. The tradi­
tional cape was presented to each sponsor to signify her 
corps. These capes are worn when the sponsors review the 
cadet troops spring term.

The Spartan Guard changed the auditorium dance floor 
into a drill field as the basic cadets performed a precision 
drill exhibition for the spectators.

Blue Key tapping brought the intermission to a close 
as thirteen seniors and nine juniors were tapped for the 
national junior-senior men’s honorary.

Coeds view sorority life

Come right in.” Two sorority members wel­

come a rushee to the formal teas fall term.

Ice cream cones complete the children’s party 
theme at this fourth stage rush party.

The informal atmosphere of second stage teas gave rushees an 
opportunity to become acquainted with sorority life.

Coeds attending the fall convocation in the Music Audi­
torium were eager to learn the hows and whys of rushing. 
Members of Pan-Hel had anticipated their questions and 
were ready with an informative program on sorority life, 
climaxed with slides of each house. Each coed received 
a booklet, “It’s All Greek to Me,” which gave a schedule 
of the formal teas and information ranging from how to 
accept bids to what to wear to the rush parties.

The week end of formal teas, rushees visited each soror­
ity house for their first glimpse of sorority living. Fifteen 
minutes didn t seem very long, but it gave them an oppor­
tunity to meet many of the members who were just as 
anxious to meet the rushees.

140

Winter term, the Pan-Hel post office was the scene of 
much activity as 800 rushees picked up their bids. Each 
coed was assigned a counselor to answer any questions 
on rushing. Six houses had to be chosen by the rushee 
when she picked up her bids for Stage I.

Skirts and sweaters made the atmosphere informal at 
the parties in Stage II and gave the rushees and actives a 
better chance to get acquainted.

The remaining parties were centered around a particu­
lar theme, carried out by costumes, decorations and enter­
tainment. Finally the suspense was over as the coeds 
picked up their bids to pledge and began the search for a 
white dress for the pledging ceremonies Sunday afternoon.

An informative smoker for all men interested in fraternity rush 
was sponsored by IFC fall term. Following the convocation, rush- 
ees were able to visit the booths set up by individual fraternities.

Whether or not to join a fraternity is the decision many 
men at MSC are faced with each term as they view the 
schedule of rush smokers. The first step is to attend an 
IFC open smoker where prospective rushees have an 
opportunity to visit booths set up by the 
individual 
fraternities.

The second week of the term open houses are held at 
all of the fraternity houses, and the rushees may attend 
as many as they desire, since invitations aren’t issued. The 
following week, closed smokers are held, to which one 
must receive an invitation. It depends upon the individual 
fraternity as to the number of closed smokers the rushee 
must attend before he is invited to pledge.

The decision is made, and the rushees assume their 

duties as pledges, the first stage of fraternity life.

Rushees visit houses and get acquainted with chapter members. 
Theta Chi’s show rushees their trophies.

Spartans go Western

A group of Western performers line up their mounts for the final judging. The student 
riders were required to put their horses through a series of paces to judge their horsemanship 
abilities.

“Up and over,” urges this young rider as 
her mount hesitates at the jump, during the 
hunt class.

Spartans looking for something new in entertainment 

certainly found it at the sixth annual Block and Bridle 
Show spring term. The livestock pavilion was transformed 

into a true Western rodeo with roping, broncho bucking 

and races. For those spectators who preferred English 
style riding, there were equestrian contests in the three and 
five gaited classes and hunters.

The record breaking crowd attending the show didn’t 
have to be schooled in horsemanship to appreciate the 

riding ability of the student performers.

The Detroit Mounted Police Drill Team performed un­
believable feats in precision riding as they joined with 
other professional acts, giving spectators a chance to see 

horsemanship at its best.  The donkey basketball team 

succeeded in stealing the show with their antics, and even 
more surprising, their accuracy.

Many Spartans saw something new as teams of draft horses took 
to the ring to compete in weight pulling contests.

Sophs capture brown jug

It was a long, cold night for the sophomore and freshman presi­
dents, Howard James and John Rogers, who undertook a tree-sitting 
contest to publicize Frosh-Soph Day.

Heave Ho! Freshmen and sophomores manage to smile as they 
put all their efforts into the annual tug of war, part of Frosh-Soph 
Day. The cold and mud didn’t dampen spirits on - either side, 
but the sophomores were victorious in the contest for the first time 
in five years.

It was a victory for the sophomores! For the first time 
in five years they whipped the freshmen in the annual 
Frosh-Soph Day contest for the Little Brown Jug, symbol 
of underclass supremacy.

The night before the big event, the class presidents 

attempted to outsit each other in the tree in front of the 

Union. Afternoon activities, the following day, were the 

canoe and centipede races, rope pulling and cheering 

contests.

An annual event since 1920, Frosh-Soph Day was 

rescheduled this year from spring to fall term to attract 

more interest in the contest. “Should freshmen wear beanies 

during the term?” was the issue in the original contest, 

but now it is to determine which class will hold the “jug” 

for the coming year.

Circuses take to the water

Crowned Porpoise queen, Dorothy Daniel raises her fish to offi­
cially open the 11th annual “Aqua Maniacs Water Circus”. Por­
poise court members are Maxine Neely, Margaret Wiber, Judith 
Vesotsky and Edna Halliday.

Extra surprise of the show was a barefoot GI strumming his guitar 
while his island love shimmied through “Dear John”.

“Greatest Splash on Earth” captured all the magic of 
the big top with its elaborate costuming and its “Grand 
Finale” of colored balloons. The student-directed acts 
mixed a solo, duets and precision swimming with clown 
stunts, trapeze artists and animals in the annual Green 
Splash show.

Under the Jenison big top, Porpoise Fraternity clowns 
splashed their “Aqua Maniacs Circus” into the center ring 
for its three night performance. Swimming demonstra­
tions, a tug-of-war with 55-gallon drums, and both aerial 
and aqualung diving highlighted the evening.

The Maniacs became serious as they awed the audience with 
their display of precision diving.

The J-Hop, a 54-year annual tradition, has grown from 
a one night eleven-piece band event in 1901, to the two 
night big-name dance band production of 1955. The dance 
was held in the Masonic Temple in Lansing until 1918. 
In that year the J-Hop came on campus to celebrate the 
opening of the new gymnasium.

A formal reception, banquet and grand march preceded 
the J-Hop in its early history. The dance began as early 
as 4 p.m. and students who were going were excused from 
classes. The tradition of favors was first initiated in 1916 
with both coeds and their dates receiving souvenirs of 
the dance.

The J-Hop was switched to the auditorium in the early 
1930’s where it has continued to be one of Michigan 
State’s most traditional dances.

Ralph Flanagan autographs dance programs for Don Stewart, Jill 
Barrett, Jeanne Joy and Tom Ewing during J-Hop intermission.

“C’est Magnifique,” the 1955 J-Hop, took on a French 
accent for the first time in the dance’s history. The 1400 
couples who attended the annual event Friday and Satur­
day night, danced in a reproduction of the garden of the 
palace of Versailles with decorations being centered around 
an 11-foot fountain.

Ralph Flanagan and his orchestra made their first ap­
pearance on the MSC campus. The dance was broadcast 
over a national radio network for one half hour both nights. 
Favors, presented to each coed, were decks of cards com­
bining the Centennial and J-Flop theme.

Intermission entertainment was highlighted with the 
appearance of the “Salt City Five” and their famous Dixie­
land arrangements. Saturday night dancers received a 
special treat, the crowning of Miss Big 10. Suspense 
mounted as the eight contestants were presented, giving 
the audience an opportunity to see the much-discussed 
beauties. Judging had been conducted in the afternoon. 
Bob Bluemle, president of the Big 10 Association, made 
the final announcement and Jan Somers presented the 
trophy to the 1955 Miss Big 10, Carol Goulet, represent­
ing the University of Minnesota.

The gates of the Versailles garden began to close as 
the couples streamed out into the cold winter night head­
ing for early morning breakfasts, thus bringing an end 
to the 1955 J-Hop.

Representing their schools in the Miss Big 10 contest were: Jane 
Luzadder of Indiana, Sandra Smock of Purdue, Geraldine Gerber 
of Illinois, second place winner Barbara Koch of Ohio State, 
Suzanne Clarke of Northwestern, Judy Bradley of Michigan State, 
Queen Carol Goulet of Minnesota and Jessie James of Iowa.

The 1400 couples who attended C’est Mag­
nifique danced in an atmosphere of the gar­
den of Versailles. A large fountain was the 
center of decorations with rose trellises deco­
rating the edge of the balcony.

Mens dorms entertain with Sno-Ball

The Sno-Ball brought the winter scene into Brody Hall 
as the Men’s Inter-Dorm Council presented its annual 
all-college dance. This was the first year that the dance 
was held in one of the new Harrison buildings, giving the 
coeds an opportunity to see Brody Hall. Previously the 
ball was held in Shaw Hall.

A semi-formal dance, the Sno-Ball is sponsored for the 
residents of men’s dorms and their dates. Free transporta­
tion was provided to and from the women’s dorms on 
West Circle Drive and the Mason-Abbot section.

It’s intermission time, and couples attending the Sno-Ball relax 
with refreshments of punch and sandwiches, in Brody Hall.

Brody Hall, the dining unit for the Harrison Road dorms, was 
gaily decorated for the Sno-Ball, sponsored by the Men’s Inter- 
Dorm Council. Residents of all men’s dormitories attended.

148

The musical atmosphere was set by Paul Grischke’s 
orchestra with both floors of Brody used for dancing. 
Winter decorations kept the Sno-Ball theme in view.

Intermission activities featured the Bryan Hall Glee 
Club which entertained with a variety of arrangements. 
Refreshments, buffet style, followed the entertainment.

Spartans go

“On the Town

Dee Owen models Lake Lansing attire during “Highways to 
Fashion.” Student models displayed clothes from merchants.

The old familiar grill brought many puzzled looks from 
Spartans during Union Board Week. Awnings and palms 
decorated each entrance and the popular coffee spot had 
temporarily assumed a new title, “The Beehive.”

The Union Board’s theme of “On the Town,” was car­
ried into the concourse as signs pointed to Broadway and 
42nd streets. Standing under the signs were four-foot 
gentlemen and lady bees dressed for a night out.

“Highways to Fashion” was the first performance during 
Union Board Week. Student models displayed the latest 
in spring attire agaiqft a backdrop of car medallions.

The next evening the Union ballroom stage was set for 
“Sorry, Wrong Number,” a student variety show involv­
ing a party-giver who wanted some entertainment and a 
booking, agent who supplied it.

Union Board Week was climaxed Saturday night with 
a dance in the ballroom which had been transformed into 
Central Park. During intermission, the winners of the 
week-long student art exhibition were announced. The 
dance brought a close to Spartans’ Week “On the Town.”

The Grill assumed a new name during Union Board Week. The 
Beehive was decorated with striped awnings, palms and figures 
of student bees. Concourse signs showed Manhattan influence.

“Sorry, Wrong Number,” chorus the coeds who performed during 
the Union Board variety show which featured student entertain­
ment in the two-night run. Tommy Aquino produced show for UB.

Men honored 
at Spinsters Spin

Spinster’s Spin, the evening when coeds take over and escort their 
favorite men to the annual semi-formal dance. “Never Before” 
was this year’s title, with large spotlighted mobiles carrying 
through the modern theme of the dance. Coeds struggled with 
doors and coats as they assumed the manly duties for the evening 
and arranged pre-parties and early breakfasts for their dates.

Lou Miller and Joan Petrunick of Mortar Board assist President 
Hannah from the old-fashioned horse-drawn carriage which 
brought him and Mrs. Hannah to the Spin.

An important part of Spinster’s Spin preparations for the coeds 
is corsage making. Each date receives a humorous lapel decora­
tion, usually depicting one of his interests or outstanding activity.

Shindig lets whiskers grow

“Swing your partner,” directs the square dance caller as couples 
perform the intricate patterns of each dance in the women’s gym.

The Alpha Gamma Rho Combo supplies some lively music for 
couples in an adjoining room decorated as an old-fashioned saloon.

Beards began to invade the campus, the signal that the 
Foresters’ Shindig wasn’t far off and men were letting 
their whiskers grow for the contest at the annual dance 
sponsored by the Forestry Club. Even Babe the Blue Ox 
got into the act as foresters advertised their Shindig.

Students on South Campus received free coffee and an 
invitation to the dance from foresters camped at the foot­
bridge the day of the Shindig. The big night finally 
arrived and the Women’s Gym was turned into a young 
pine forest as dancers swung their partners in good old 
barn dance style.

Time out for refreshments! 
Relaxing after a strenuous 
round of dances, couples 
enjoy a Foresters’ Shindig 
specialty, Kickapoo Joy 
Juice.

Michigan State greets farmers with exhibits;

Three Vassar farmers inspect a new milking procedure during a tour of the Main Dairy Barn.

Secretary of Agriculture Ezra Taft Benson spoke to several thou­
sand rural families in the Auditorium during one of the last pro­
grams of Farmers’ Week. He received an honorary degree.

The 40th annual Farmers’ Week, Michigan’s biggest 
rural life event, attracted over 40,000 persons to the 
campus as it brought together leaders in agriculture, busi­
ness, education, government and science.

The week’s activities opened with the traditional Dairy 
Day. Horse Day was also observed as the Horse Breeders 
Association sponsored the little international fitting and 
showing contest. Climaxing the day was the All-Breeds 
Dairy Banquet in the Union. Farmer’s Week guests were 
housed in Kellogg Center and local hotels and private 
homes.

programs

Broiler and Sugar Beet Day was celebrated Tuesday as 
over 8,500 persons were present at meetings devoted to 
the discussion of problems of vegetable and small fruit 
growers and sugar beet producers. An evening program 
told dairymen and livestockmen about the fight to control 
brucellosis in the state.

The farmers’ wives also participated in the week’s activi­
ties. They attended programs, devoted to household equip­
ment and home furnishings, discussed by experts in the 
home economics field. The visitors had an opportunity 
to tour the home ec building as the department welcomed 
them to an open house.

Livestock Day played host to beef cattlemen, sheep 
raisers and hogmen who met to discuss recent develop­
ments in this field. A smorgasbord banquet in the live­
stock pavilion climaxed the day’s activities.

Highlighting Farmers’ Week was an address by Secre­
tary of Agriculture Ezra Benson. Governor G. Mennen 
Williams introduced the speaker to the farmers who filled 
the auditorium. On the closing day of Farmers’ Week the 
American Dairy Association of Michigan met to discuss 
plans for 1955.

It was a big week for the farmers and for the college 
sponsors, and it achieved its purpose: to educate the 
farmer in recent farm developments and create better rela­
tions between Michigan farmers and the institution which 
they helped to establish 100 years ago.

Green Helmet members set up a booth in the Union concourse to 
assist Farmer’s Week visitors in finding their destinations on 
campus. Another booth was at a campus entrance.

Representatives from several national companies set up displays 
which keep farmers posted on the latest agricultural developments. 
The booths, in the stadium concourse, received much attention 
from the visitors as they paused between the schedule of programs.

Activities keep Greeks busy

The Alpha Tau Omega lawn was the scene of much activity the 
evening of the Greek Feast. The Feast opened a program of 
activities which was climaxed by Greek Week during fall term.

“Let’s put aside the friendly rivalry and get to know 
each other.” This was the hope of IFC and Pan-Hel as 
they began planning a schedule of joint-Greek activities 
spring term.

The first event on the calendar was the Greek Feast 
in May. The weatherman cooperated as more than 800 
couples gathered on the ATO lawn and began the evening 
by eating supper picnic style. While balancing plates on 
their laps, the spectators enjoyed a variety of outstanding 
student entertainment.

As the cleanup committee began its work, couples took 
advantage of the warm spring evening to dance on the 
porch and relax in the ATO livingroom, getting acquainted.
Encouraged by the success of the Feast, IFC and Pan- 
Hel began making plans for getting Greek groups to­
gether for more activities fall term.

Linda Freeman, Pan-Hel vice-president presents the high scholar­
ship trophy to Barbara Peck for Kappa Kappa Gamma, and the 
scholarship improvement trophy to Marilynn Hall for Alpha 
Gamma Delta. Pan-Hel awards these trophies each term.

154

Arrangements were complete, at last, for that long 
planned-for Greek Week, and they certainly included some 
hearty eating. Fraternity and sorority members scattered 
all over campus one evening for a program of exchange 
dinners as half the residents of each house split into groups 
and visited other houses.

Presidents of each house dined with Pan-Hellenic and 
Inter-Fraternity Council delegates in the Union the follow­
ing evening. The audience heard speeches from the Greek 
governing body presidents on the importance of friendly 
relations between the groups.

Greek Week was climaxed by the “Tunic Twirl,” a semi- 
formal dance at the Dells. It had been a successful week; 
friendships had been made, everyone had enjoyed a good 
time, but most important, much of that traditional rivalry 
was replaced by a friendlier atmosphere among the Greek 
living units.

Pan-Hellenic and Inter-Fraternity Council invited the presidents 
from each fraternity and sorority to a dinner in the Union. The 
presidents of the Greek governing bodies and members of the 
administration stressed the necessity of closer house cooperation.

Highlight of the Greek Week activities was the Tunic Twirl, a 
semi-formal dance held at the Dells. The backdrop was decorated 
with Greek letters, and intermission entertainment was provided 
by talented groups from several of the houses.

Foundersy Day marks beginning of

Addressing the convocation, James B. Conant, president emeritus 
of Harvard, warned of increased need for study of history and 
foreign policy. He told of differences in educational goals.

Shortly after the stamp presentation ceremony, Lansing post­
master Lyle B. Austin, President Hannah, Michigan Governor G. 
Mennen Williams and East Lansing postmaster William A. Bur­
gess paused to look over the official presentation copies. In the 
background is a giant replica of the stamp.

Founders’ Day officially marked the opening of the cele­
bration of Michigan State’s 100th birthday. The program 
on February 12, which marked the anniversary of Governor 
Bingham’s approval of the Enabling Act, gave the college, 
the students, and the alumni an opportunity to celebrate 
the event honoring the past and planning for the future.
The day’s activities began with a ceremony at which the 
United States Assistant Postmaster General presented the 
first stamps of the new issue honoring Michigan State and 
Pennsylvania State as the first of the land grant institutions. 
President Hannah and Penn State’s President Milton Eisen­
hower accepted for their respective schools.

The afternoon convocation, in the Auditorium, opened 
with an academic procession. It included delegates of 
educational institutions throughout the United States and 
abroad, as well as from learned and professional societies. 
The Michigan State faculty and administrative members 
also marched in the procession.

Centennial Celebration

Centennial visitors at Kellogg Center are among the first to pur­
chase pages of the new stamp issue which honors Michigan State 
and Penn State. The stamp was officially put on sale in East 
Lansing on Founders’ Day. First day covers were also sold.

Invited guests, delegates from other universities and from learned 
and professional societies, sign up at the registration desk and 
receive the packet of materials which described the centennial 
program and its significance. Guests were housed in Kellogg.

A special Centennial Award went to President Chosho Goya of 
Okinawa’s University of the Ryukyus, a school which Michigan 
State adopted and is assisting in developing. Michigan State 
personnel have been sent to the Pacific institution to help it 
develop a comprehensive college program.

The convocation’s main speaker, President Emeritus 
James B. Conant of Harvard and now U. S. High Com­
missioner for Germany, spoke of “An Old Tradition in 
a New World.” Following Conant’s address, President 
Hannah conferred honorary Doctor of Laws degrees upon 
13 outstanding men from the fields of education, govern­
ment, business and labor.

An awards banquet closed out the Founders’ Day 
observance. Following an address by President Hannah, 
27 Centennial Awards were presented to recipients for 
“outstanding contributions to society, for achieving dis­
tinction in their endeavors and for setting the highest 
standards of accomplishment.” Other Centennial Awards 
will be presented at academic programs throughout the 
year.

The Founders’ Day program only ushered in the Cen­
tennial year. Each of the schools of Michigan State planned 
an academic symposium as its part of the anniversary 
celebration.

Tributes to Michigan State on its birthday poured in. 
The Saturday Evening Post and Newsweek congratulated 
the school on its centennial. Newspapers throughout 
Michigan commented on the significance of the event.

Jan Somers, representing Kappa Alpha Theta, sponsor of the 
winning candidate, crowns Bud McCullough, the Ugliest Man on 
Campus, during ceremonies at the King’s Coronation Ball. ^ The 
winner received a mug and scepter as symbol of his ugliness.

One of the most colorful contests on campus is UMOC, 
more commonly known as Ugliest Man on Campus. 
Women’s living units select a candidate who, contrary to 
the title, is usually an important figure on campus. The 
contest is sponsored by Alpha Phi Omega.

Campaigning began a week before the contest opened 
in February, as colorful posters dotted campus walks. 
Coeds shined shoes and waited tables in men’s living units, 
one evening, and entertained in the Union concourse to 
promote their candidate.

The week of the contest, students were urged to put 
their contributions in the sealed gallon jars in the Union. 
Car washing, paper drives and auctions were staged by 
women’s living units as each day’s voting results were 
posted.

The contest was climaxed by the King’s Coronation 
Ball when balloting officially closed and the votes were 
tallied. A total of $4,265.95 worth of ballots was cast 
in the contest setting a new national record. The contribu­
tions were turned over to Campus Chest.

At last the big announcement came at intermission and 
Bud McCullough was crowned Ugliest Man on Campus.

The musical strains of a caliope flowed throughout 
Jenison Fieldhouse adding to the carnival atmosphere as 
seven thousand Spartans milled about the twenty-eight 
Spartacade booths. Costumed entertainers mingled with 
the crowd, encouraging them to come in and spend their 
dimes for Campus Chest.

Across the fieldhouse, a coed smiled as she entered the 
water. Someone had just hit the target with a baseball and 
so into the tub she dropped. The group of Spartans moved 
on to the next Spartacade booth where they paid a dime 
to throw a paste pie at the smiling faces sticking through 
the canvas. The smiles didn’t seem to fade even when 
they were dripping with pie goo.

“Come on in,” beckons an attractive 
chorus line.

This lovely couple is giving the audience a preview of the show 
they will find inside the booth. Shall we take a chance and buy 
a ticket?

160

This lucky young man has just roped himself a coed at one of 
the audience participation booths.

Colorful fronts are capable of attracting anyone to pay his dime 
enter the booths, and see the show. All proceeds from the 
Carnival go into the Campus Chest fund.

“Step right up and get a ticket to the Moulin Rouge,” 
called the mustached barker. Tickets were eagerly pur­
chased as Spartans entered the booth to watch a Paris 
sideshow complete with can-can dancers and Parisian 
atmosphere. As they left the booth, picturesque signs of 
“Betarama” and “City Lights” flashed their names while 
barkers in high hats urged spectators to see each show.
In the center of the fieldhouse was a special display of 
sports and experimental model cars, a sharp contrast from 
the gaily lit booths. As the lights began to dim, crowds 
started to leave the fieldhouse. Many stayed behind to 
begin the big job of cleaning up the booths which had to 
be completed by the following afternoon.

It was another successful Spartacade, adding $4,966 
to the Campus Chest, sponsors of the annual carnival. 
When the trophies were presented Sunday, only a few 
colored lights remained from the festivities, but the spirit 
of levity and good-natured competition lingered on.

This young fellow didn’t buy a ticket to the Alpha Xi-Phi Kap 
show and now he’s suffering the consequences. His captors are 
urging others to avoid the same fate.

Campus opens its buildings for parents

“Hi Mom and Dad!” The huge sign across the Union 
entrance welcomed mothers and fathers to the campus for 
the annual Parents’ Day. But this year the occasion was 
extended to two full days for sons and daughters to play 
host to mom and dad.

President Hannah extended a warm welcome to the 
2,000 guests as they gathered at the Kellogg Center audi­
torium to hear the schedule of weekend activities.

Classroom doors swung open for parents’ inspection 
and they marveled at the distance between South Campus 
and Berkey that had to be traveled in ten minutes. Guests 
had an opportunity to see the International Festival, and 
for the more athletic minded parents, the Green and White 
football game was a big attraction. Other events high­
lighting the weekend were the famous Rose Bowl films 
and the Engineering Exposition.

The busy weekend came to a close Sunday afternoon 
with living units holding open house and serving buffet 
dinners for the parents. This gave mom and dad a chance 
to become better acquainted with the college homes of 
their sons and daughters.

“Look over this way,” directs a student as he guides a group of 
parents through Kellogg Center.

Early morning at Beaumont honors coeds

It was May Morning Sing once again, that time when 
the tasseled caps of Mortar Board and the red and gold 
ribbons of Tower Guard are passed down to the out­
standing junior and freshmen coeds at Beaumont Tower.
The twenty women tapped to the senior women’s honor­
ary was the largest number to be chosen in the history of 
Mortar Board at Michigan State. Thirty-five freshmen 
coeds were selected to Tower Guard for outstanding work 
during their freshmen year.

President and Mrs. Hannah served as host and hostess 
at the breakfast for the newly tapped Mortar Board 
members in the Union Green Room. The initiates of 
Tower Guard and their parents attended a breakfast as 
guests of the Spartan Women’s League.

Men’s Glee Club members entertain spectators at the May Morning 
Sing before the tapping ceremonies begin.

Campaigns; promises and elections

Strategic locations over the entire MSC campus are covered with campaign signs during election week.

Students don’t have to be staunch Republicans or 
Democrats to hold a political office at MSC. Hard work 
and loyal support are the key to a successful campus 
election.

Spring term, the walks around Berkey and the Union 
are lined with campaign posters as living units select their 
candidates for class offices and student government. Many 
of the colorful signs disappear after the primaries as the 
field is narrowed to two candidates for each office.

Behind the scenes, student government is busy tabulating 

the votes and setting up standard election procedure.

The State News 

informs voters of the candidate s 
progress, and finally all the returns are in. Not everyone 
is satisfied with the results, but the new officers take up 
their duties and the losers begin planning their campaigns 

for next year’s elections.

Student government election personnel supervise the elections and 
staff the voting tables. Students respond to the appeals for their 
votes for class and government offices.

Gamma Phi Beta’s gather around their song leader after winning 
the Sorority sing for the second year in succession.

Sing

Crowds gathered on the grass before the Bandshell for the Alpha 
Phi Omega sponsored fraternity sing.

Congratulations!

Rain again forced Pan-Hel to stage the annual Sorority 
Sing in the auditorium, spring term. This didn’t hinder the 
music as the seventeen groups presented their special 
arrangements.

When the judges made their final decision, Gamma Phi 
Beta was awarded the first place trophy for its presentation 
of “Johnny One Note.” “Hi-Lili, Hi-Lo” brought a second 
prize for Alpha Gamma Delta.

Spartans relaxed in front of the bandshell as fraternities 
took the stage for their annual sing. The student-directed 
groups each presented two numbers, including one frater­
nity song.

Psi Upsilon members won the first place trophy for the 
sixth straight year with their choral treatment of “Russian 
Picnic.” Sigma Chi received second honors with “Halls 
of Ivy.”

Speed and laughs entertain (500y fans

The happy crew of the SAE pushcart roared across the finish line 
in near record time to be claimed the winner of the sixth annual 
Lambda Chi Junior 500.

Speed isn’t all that counts in the Junior 500 race. 
Several living units competed in the humor division 
in which this entry of Phi Kappa Sigma earned first 
prize.

166

A true Indianapolis atmosphere prevailed at the sixth 
annual Junior 500 Pushcart Derby sponsored by Lambda 
Chi Alpha.

“And they’re off,” came the cry over the loud speaker 
as the eighteen drivers and speedy pushers took to the 
course around Circle Drive. The announcer, from his 
lofty perch, kept spectators posted on the position of the 
cars.

Tension mounted in the final heat as the first cart made 
the final turn past the women’s dorms. It was SAE, the 
winner, and only one second from a record. Biggie Munn 
was waiting at the finish line to congratulate the winners 
and present the traveling first place trophy.

The portrayal of two campus policemen trailing an 
unregistered car, which turned into a cow, supplied enough 
laughs for Phi Kappa Sigma to win the humor trophy.

SAE Queen Sue Brinkman 
shows a smile of victory and 
the first place trophy after 
the fraternity won the sixth 
annual Pushcart Derby. 
The SAE’s were only one 
second from a record when 
they were flagged across 
the finish line.

Women’s dorms entered carts in the derby, but the coeds left 
the running to the boys while they cheered from the sidelines.

As usual, the Lambda Chi cart came up missing and was found 
only hours before the race. Hurried preparations are being made 
before the start.

Rain doesn’t dampen carnival spirit

Senator McCarthy’s mudslinging won first place honors for the Beta’s and Chi O’s.

Sitting in the bleachers watching the colorful Water 
Carnival floats pass by, it’s hard to believe that Indians 
once paddled their canoes past that very spot.

Many decades later, after the founding of MAC, Spartans 
continued to enjoy this same water sport, and just for 
novelty, they began to have canoe-tilts and races. Since 
water sports were becoming so popular, an all-college water 
event was suggested, but the coming of World War I, 
caused the idea to be forgotten. Shortly after the war, a 
group of students presented the first Spring Pageant along 
the Red Cedar.

About 1923 the first Canoe Carnival was held with only 
a few small floats on the program. “Songs of Our Times,” 
was the theme for the first splash pageant which was spon­
sored by the Senior Class with some of the float themes 
being “Time Out for Tears” and “It’s Been a Long, Long 
Time.” Four years later, the seniors turned the job over 
to the Water Carnival Board and their first theme was 
“Worship of the Spartan Gods.”

Ferris Hallmark and Donine Stark opened the 1954 Water Carnival 
as they floated down the Bed Cedar in the King and Queen chariot.

168

“So shines a good deed in a naughty world” portrayed Noah’s 
Ark and was a winning theme for the ATO’s and Delta Zeta’s.

Liberace smiled again and this time he succeeded in winning 
third place for the Delta Gamma’s and DU’s.

Water Carnival has become firmly established as a 
campus tradition and is now one of the most important 
events on the activities calendar. There were some years, 
especially during the depression and World War II, when 
there was neither time nor money for Carnivals.

Post-war years brought Carnival themes based on musi­
cals and colorful extravaganzas which have gradually 
become more conservative with such themes as “Laugh 
and Smile Film Antics Style” and “The World We Inhibit.” 
William Shakespeare provided the theme for the 1954 
Carnival, “Forsooth and All That,” but the weatherman 
didn’t cooperate and opening night had to be postponed. 
The next evening was still cold and damp but the audience 
received a treat as they watched twenty-eight Shakespearian 
floats make their way down the Red Cedar.

When a strong June wind arose, Charlie Brown almost blew 
himself away, much to the amazement of his friend Lucy, who 
thought “Ambition should be made of sterner stuff.”

Some last minute preparations are put on one of the floats. Workers 
were hampered by the rain which damaged many floats and forced 
much of the work to be finished inside the living units.

The floats dry out in the sun along the Red Cedar; too bad it had 
to be the morning after the Water Carnival when the sun finally 
appeared.

College careers end for seniors

Dr. Arthur Adams, of the American 
Council on Education, is congratulated 
by President Hannah as he receives his 
honorary degree from Dr. Osgood, Dean 
of the Graduate School.

170

A beautiful day greeted the seniors who received their degrees at the 96th annual graduation exercises.

College days were a thing of the past for the 1,952 
seniors as they entered Macklin Stadium. To some of 
them, it had gone too quickly, while others had counted 
the days until graduation.

The final whirl of activities brought a climax to four 
memorable years as Senior Swingout, banquets and the 
Senior Ball kept them too busy to look back and reminisce 
or regret. Maybe they had spent too many hours in the 
grill, but then that was all past now.

As busy as the seniors were spring term, close attention 
was paid to bulletins from the Placement Bureau. The time 
spent in those interviews had paid off in security for the 
future.

Dr. Arthur Adams, the guest speaker, urged the seniors 
to apply reason and judgment in dealing with the future. 
When the seniors rose to accept their degrees from Presi­
dent Hannah, they realized they were graduates and it 
was time to accept the responsibilities of the future.

Alums return

President Hannah exchanges views on 1954 Michigan State with 
former MAC graduates. Alumni day gives “old grads” a chance 
to see the fabulous growth of the college.

I

The 40th anniversary class poses for its official picture.

An estimated 1,600 alumni from 13 graduating classes 

participated in two days of campus activities early in June. 

The annual Alumni Day had been extended to include an 

entire weekend, which gave graduates more time to re­

acquaint themselves with their rapidly growing alma mater.

On Saturday afternoon President Hannah presided as 

guest speaker at a luncheon held by the Patriarch’s Club 

to honor the class of 1904 in the year of its golden 

anniversary.

Such traditional campus activities as Water Carnival 

and baseball brought back cherished memories. For those 

graduates who could clearly remember MSC’s previous 

obscurity, the highlight of the weekend was a movie of 

the Rose Bowl game which had climaxed MSC’s year as 

the youngest member of the Big Ten.

Sunday afternoon ended the alumni activities as com­

mencement gave past graduates an opportunity to remember 

their own graduations years ago.

Athletics at Michigan State have estab­
lished a rich tradition in 100 years. Beginning 
with baseball which inaugurated outside com­
petition in 1858, Michigan State teams have 
ably represented the school in inter-collegiate 
contests in all sports. In addition, a strong 
intramural program has been growing since 
its inception in 1919, reaching almost all 
Michigan State men.

It is in football, perhaps, that Michigan 
State has achieved its greatest fame. From 
the first undefeated, untied season in 1913, 
to admittance to the Big Ten in 1948, to the 
national championship year of 1952 and Rose 
Bowl win of 1954, Spartan football teams 
have gained recognition and reward. All 
of the athletic teams are constantly striving 
toward “victory for MSC.”

A new
Athletic Director

pfP *■i

With a brilliant coaching career behind him, Clar­

ence L. (Biggie) Munn took over the Spartan ath­

letic reins in September.

Always a favorite with Spartan fans, the new Ath­

letic Director retained his spot in their hearts, mak­
ing several pep rally appearances.

Before the year was over, the effects of Munn’s 

leadership could be seen in the Spartan athletic 

plant, in both physical and personnel improvements.

Cheerleaders counted off Spartan points on this bell as fans roared 
their approval to the newest pep raiser.

Cheers for the team

Cheerleading ceased as a male stronghold as six Spartan 

coeds were added to the pep squad.

Except for a brief period during the war, cheerleading 

had always been an all-male affair at Michigan State. 

But the student pressure brought about the addition of 

the coeds, on a trial basis.

From the over 50 students who turned out for the team, 

two brunettes and four blondes became the first regular 

coed cheerleaders at MSC. They joined the men’s portion 

of the squad to make the first combined showing at the 

pre-Purdue pep rally.

The coeds were an immediate hit and continued to add 

sparkle to the Spartan athletic festivities all year. Although 

the coeds couldn’t take the road trips, the men did and 

cheered the Spartan efforts from the heat of Iowa to the 

ankle deep mud of Notre Dame.

A fired-up band of Iowa Hawkeyes scored first and last 
to spoil Duffy Daugherty’s debut as Spartan head coach, 
14-10, at Iowa City.

The Hawks scored early to lead 7-0 at halftime, as the 
Spartans developed a bad case of fumbleitis in the first 
two periods, losing the pigskin 5 times.

Rebounding in the third period, the Spartans took the 
kick-off and marched 75 yards to score, with LeRoy 
Bolden crashing over from the six. Jerry Planutis’ con­
version knotted the score and moments later his 25-yard 
field goal made it 10-7 for the Spartans.

Late in the game MSC apparently punted out of danger 
only to have Eldean Matheson race the kick back 55 yards 
to the Spartan 2, from where Jerry Reichow drove across 
to ice the Hawk win.

lowu upsets Spartans

“No, no, no,” screams Duffy a 
debut as Spartan head coach,

For the clincher, Hawkeye quarterback Jerry Riechow dives 
over from the one-yard line as Johnny Matsock (43) fails to 
push him back. Iowa tackle John Hall effectively holds Joe 
Badaczewski (56) out of the play while Hawk end Frank 
Gilliam (87) and Spartan end Don Kauth (behind Gilliam) 
watch the action.

One Hawkeye pulls down Johnny Matsock while another 
one, end Jim Freeman, races up to lend his aid.

“Mine,” says Badger Bob Gingrass as he hauls in a Jim Miller 
pass while Spartans Jerry Planutis and Clarence Peaks rush to 
dissuade him.

Duffy brought his Spartans home, but even the friendly 
rooters couldn’t help as the Wisconsin Badgers eked out a 
6-0 win.

Playing to a capacity crowd, the Spartans found the 
Badger line a tough nut to crack and Alan (The Horse) 
Ameche a hard man to stop.

Wisconsin’s rock-ribbed defense held the Spartan backs 
to only eight yards rushing during the game, while Ameche 
himself picked up 28 yards on his scoring jaunt in the 
second period.

Ameche’s score was one of the most controversial plays 
of the year, coming while the Spartans had only 10 defend­
ers on the field.

LeRoy Bolden, who was injured on the previous down, 
was still lying just outside the playing field when Ameche 
took a hand-off and galloped unmolested through the 
vacated position to score.

Playing with a bad leg, Bolden was helped from the field 

three times, to thunderous ovations.

Wisconsin, 6-0

Bert Zagers looks longingly at Earl Morrall’s pass but two Wis­
consin pass defenders gather around him to ruin the play.

Jim Hinesly, a glue-fingered junior end, gave the home 

fans something to cheer about as he caught five passes for 

123 yards. One was a 60-yard pass play on which he was 

caught from behind on the 15 yard line.

The passing of Johnny Matsock and Earl Morrall 

sparked a last ditch comeback bid, moving the ball to the 

Wisconsin 20 with seconds left. But Badger guard Paul 

Schwiko intercepted a pass on the 8 on the game’s final 

play to kill the threat.

Left—Joe Badaczewski draws everyone’s attention as he intercepts

First win of 54

Although Hoosier John Bartkiewicz is going along for the ride, 
sophomore quarterback Pat Wilson scores his first college TD to 
give the Spartans a 21-14 win.

Hoosier Jim Stone quickly decides a change in course is in 
order as four Spartans close in on him. The Spartan horde

Johnny Matsock races around end for big yardage as a 
Hoosier makes a futile grab for him.

A pair of sophomores struck paydirt to pace the Spar­
tans to their first win, 21-14, over the Hoosiers of Indiana.

The Spartans drew first blood on a 60-yard pass play 
from Earl Morrall to sophomore Clarence Peaks, who 

shook off three would-be tacklers to go the distance and 
register his first collegiate TD.

Some circus catches by the Hoosier ends gave them two 

scores and a 14-7 halftime lead.

But with the second half only minutes old, Johnny Mat- 
sock took a Hoosier punt and sprinted 75 yards to score 
and tie the game. Then sophomore quarterback Pat Wilson 
plunged over from the one yard line for his first collegiate 
score and the game winning tally for the Spartans.

And away he goes! Johnny Matsock starts on his game tying punt 
return as Clarence Peaks races up to supply the key block on 
Hoosier tackle Nate Borden.

and a 35-yard pass from Earl Morrall to John Lewis.

But the Fighting Irish bounced back to score twice in

With both teams sloshing through deep mud, the third 

period went scoreless and the final quarter was well under 

way before Notre Dame broke the ice.

Paul Reynolds splashed around end for 10 yards to 

make the score 20-13 and when the extra point was missed 

it left the Spartans within striking distance.

Following the score Johnny Matsock took the kick-off 

and plowed to the Irish 42. Then Earl Morrall, showing 

a classic disregard for the sloppy weather, tossed a pass 

to John Lewis to put the ball on the 15.

From there Bert Zagers ran wide, bowled over three 

Notre Dame linemen who had him trapped, and dove into 

the end zone to make the score 20-19.

With just seconds left on the clock, the wet ball slithered 

off of Jerry Planutis’ foot, wide of the goal posts by a few 

feet and the Spartans had lost a heartbreaker.

Oh, for another inch of space. The referee throws his arms up 
to halt play as Johnny Matsock steps out of bounds. Irish center 
Dick Szymanski makes a futile dive at the fleet Matsock.

Purdue quarterback Lenny Dawson turned Macklin 

Stadium into an aerial playground as he tossed three touch­
down passes to lead the Boilermakers to a 27-13 win 

before a record attendance of 52,619 homecoming fans.
A six-yard sprint by Bert Zagers put the Spartans ahead, 
6-0, in the first period before Dawson started his aerial 

acrobatics. He piloted the Boilermakers to three straight 
scores, tossing passes for the final yardage in each case. 

In all, the Purdue ace threw for 273 yards, on nine 

completions in 13 attempts.

LeRoy Bolden smashed over from the six to pull the 

Spartans within a touchdown as the third period ended 
but Purdue scored again in the final period to send the 

Spartan grads home disappointed.

Spartan sophomore sensation Clarence Peaks topples Johnny Kerr, 
after the latter had snagged one of Lenny Dawson’s long aerials.

Purdue repeats victory

Bert Zagers looks up to find an open field and races around Jo: 
Krupa to score the Spartans’ first touchdown.

Too many Boilermakers spoil the play. Although Earl Morrall 
is eliminating one Purdue player and another Spartan has ac­
counted for one (right), Johnny Matsock falls victim to two 
more and hits the dirt.

But Zagers hits the dirt this time as Jim Whitmer (29) and 
Ed Zembal (41) brings him crashing down on Spartan 
blocker Randy Schrecengost.

Minnesota, 19-13

The Spartans fell before the onslaught of the McNamara 

band, Bob and Dick, 19-13 at Minneapolis.

Johnny Matsock treated the Spartans to an early 6-0 
lead with a 24-yard touchdown sprint but Dick McNamara 

soon tied it up. The Gophers scored again in the first half, 
to lead at halftime, 13-6.

The Spartans fought back in the third period but an 
unintentional kick by sophomore quarterback Pat Wilson 
spelled disaster to the Spartan cause. Back to pass, Wilson 

was trapped and started to run but was hit hard by the 

charging Gophers and fumbled the ball. While tumbling 
in the air, Wilson inadvertently booted the pigskin right 
into the arms of the astonished Bob McNamara, who 
rambled 40 yards to score.

LeRoy Bolden narrowed the score to 19-13 with a 

fourth period score but the Spartan rally fell short. The 
initial Minnesota touchdown was the first time the Gophers 
had been able to cross the Spartan goal line in a three 
game series.

Spartans rout Huskies

Fifty-four Spartan players shared in the 54-6 rout of 
Washington State as the Green and White scored its first 
win of the season at home.

Quarterback Johnny Matsock started the touchdown 
parade early, recovering a fumble on the first play from 
scrimmage and scoring three plays later. Then came 
touchdowns by Bert Zagers, Travis Buggs, John (Big 
Thunder) Lewis, LeRoy Bolden, Vic Postula, Jerry Mu- 
setti and A1 Fracassa. Four players, Musetti, Earl Mor- 
rall, Jerry Planutis and Gary Lowe scored on extra points 
and two Spartans, Ted Kepple and Chuck Fairbanks, 
tackled the Cougar quarterback in the end zone for a 
safety.

Coach Duffy Daugherty started 10 seniors in the game 
and ended up by playing every player who was physically 
able to participate.

The players voted the game ball to Daugherty but he 
in turn presented it to Fracassa, as a tribute to the popular, 
hard working senior signal caller.

Pre-game and halftime music was supplied by 1,700 
high school band members, along with the MSC Marching 
Band. The high school tooters were part of the annual 
Band Day at MSC.

Al Fracassa crashes over for a touchdown despite the efforts of 
Huskies Jim Welch and Joe Polowsky. Spartan Hal Pendley lends 
a hand as Fracassa ends the 54-7 rout of Washington State.

Husky gets to the right spot at the wrong time.

Wolves score 

win

So close, yet so far. With a clear field yawning ahead, John 
Lewis barely misses a pass while Lou Baldacci (27) reverses 
direction to give chase.

Gary Lowe sails high to intercept a pass while Joe 
Badaczewski holds Wolverine Danny Cline from the play.

Bert Zagers meets the Wolf pack as Ron Kramer (87) and Lou 
Baldacci (crouching at right) haul him down. Captain Ted 
Cachey (65) looks on in approval while tackle Ron Geyer (71) 
charges up to lend assistance.

Paced by a rangy sophomore end sensation, Ron Kramer, 
Michigan clobbered State, 33-7, to end a four year Spartan 
mastery of the Wolverines.

Kramer, blocked two punts, scoring on one, and ran, 

blocked, tackled and kicked his team to its win.

The Spartans dominated play in the early stages so well 
that Michigan penetrated into MSC territory only once in 
the first half, when they intercepted a pass and went on to 
score and lead at halftime, 6-0.

Kramer blocked a punt to score before Clarence Peaks 
intercepted a pass to set up a four-yard scoring plunge by 
LeRoy Bolden, pulling the Spartans close, 13-7.

Fired by Bolden’s tally, the Spartans fought back but 
were stymied by a 63-yard scoring pass to Lou Baldacci 
and routed on 
late scores by Dan Cline and Tom 
Hendricks.

Gary Lowe bulls his way past a Wolverine tackier and heads 
tor hrst down territory.

Ending the sour season on a sweet note, the Spartans 

swamped Marquette, 40-10.

Quarterback Earl Morrall tossed a 59-yard scoring 
pass to end John Lewis on the first Spartan play from 
scrimmage and another pass to Lewis good for 63 yards 
and a score on the last play of the first quarter.

Clarence Peaks, who picked up 150 yards on six carries, 
scored twice, on runs of nine and 65 yards. Fullback Jerry 
Planutis scored his first collegiate touchdown on a 6 3-yard 
screen pass from Morrall, tossing the ball high in the air 
in jubilation after crossing the goal line, and Jerry Musetti 
raced over from the six to wind up the MSC scoring.

Tackle Frank Scaffidi booted a 41-yard field goal for 
Marquette’s first points and Fred Connally rammed over 
from the 12, with Bob Girman converting for the other 
Warrior counters.

Ending their Spartan careers were seniors LeRoy Bol­
den, Hank Bullough, Roland Dotsch, Ellis Duckett, Chuck 
Fairbanks, Dale Foltz, A1 Fracassa, Ferris Hallmark, Don 
Kauth, John Matsock, Morley Murphy, John Paior, Vic 
Postula, Fred Rody, Randy Schrecengost and Bert Zagers.

Clarence Peaks scores his first of two touchdowns by bulling his 
way over two Warriors (lying on ground). Peaks scored another 
one for his best day as a Spartan.

Bert Zagers churns through a hole for valuable yardage as he 
eludes one man and another is taken out by a block (left).

The Spartan Board of Strategy: Bill Yeoman, Bob Devaney and 
Don Mason (standing), and Burt Smith, Sonny Grandelius, Duffy 
Daugherty and Dan Devine (kneeling).

Head Coach Duffy Daugherty entered his first year at 

the Spartan helm with his staff also new to their jobs.

Three of the staffers were holdovers, but each had a 

new job. Former freshman mentor Dan Devine became 

the new backfield coach while his freshman line aide, Don 

Mason, became the Spartan varsity line coach.

Bob Devaney, who had been an assistant coach, was 

appointed end coach.

Sonny Grandelius, a former Spartan All-American and 

a pro star, was named freshman coach and Bill Yeoman, 
Army and TCU star, was his line coach.

Burt Smith, one of the top high school coaches in Mich­

igan, was made an assistant coach.

Although their won-lost record wasn’t impressive, the 

coaching staff gained valuable experience toward producing 
future Spartan champions.

191

Basketball: 13-9

Destined by pre-season polls to a second division berth, 
the cagers rallied under new head coach Forrest Forddy 
Anderson to finish fourth in the Big 10. Anderson intro­
duced both teams and fans to a new, faster paced attack, 

geared to high scoring.

The Spartans worked hard learning the new style of 
play, then put their lessons into effect by walloping Mar­
quette, 91-72, in the opener. The 91 points were a school 
record and marked the first time a State team had scored 

above the 90 mark.

U. of D.’s Titans followed by handing the Spartans 

their first loss, an 84-78 overtime decision.

Christmas vacation arrived but the cagers weren’t idle, 
traveling to Philadelphia for a holiday tourney. They 
split a pair of tourney games, beating Princeton, 79-67, 
and losing to Pennsylvania, 73-67.

Then the Spartans came home for a pair of holiday, 
non-conference contests. They lost the first, 76-75, to 
DePaul. Bob Armstrong paced them to an 85-74 win 
over Penn State, dropping in 26 points for his top night 
as a Spartan.

Julius McCoy goes up for one of his deadly jump shots as the 
Spartans swamp Wisconsin, 94-77, in one of the Saturday nationally 
televised games.

Badgers John Parker (51) and Dick Cable stretch for a rebound 
but Al Ferrari reaches over them to gather it in.

Guard Duane Franskoviak scores his only basket of the year 
against the U. of D. He later fell victim to glandular fever.

Anderson’s introduction to Big 10 basketball was rough 
as Ohio State beat the Spartans, 83-76, at Columbus with 
Robin Freeman dropping in 39 points. One of the things 
Anderson quickly realized was the road game pressure in 
the Western conference.

In their first six Big 10 games, the Spartans beat the 
league leaders by 12 points at home but lost to the cellar 
dwellers by nine points on the road.

After losing to OSU, the Spartans came home and 
rebroke their scoring record, pasting Wisconsin, 94-77, 
in a nationally televised game.

Then the cagers returned to the road and a 94-81 

shellacking at the hands of the Iowa Hawkeyes.

At home against Michigan, the Spartans eked out an 
84-82 win over their arch rivals, with center Duane Peter­
son scoring 24 points to lead the way.

A trip to Bloomington was next, where the Spartans 
met disaster at the hands of last place Indiana, 88-79. 
Hoosier All-American Don Schlundt scored 36 points to 
offset a 25 point night by A1 Ferrari.

Returning home to a jam packed house, the Spartans 
upset league leading Minnesota, 87-75. The “dynamic 
duo” of A1 Ferrari and Julius McCoy scored 27 points 
apiece to pace the big win.

A non-conference break followed, and the Spartans 
gained revenge on DePaul, whipping them 88-72 in 
Chicago.

A1 Ferrari keeps his eyes pinned on Michigan’s Ron Kramer as 
the giant Wolverine dribbles for the basket in the exciting game.

The victors rejoice. Happy Spartan players gather around coach 
Forddy Anderson to celebrate the 84-82 win over Michigan.

Ferrari sails high to unleash a one-hander, while Gopher giant 
Bill Simonovich holds fast to his ground.

Fight for
Big 10 Title

Popular Spartan Julius McCoy leaps high into the air in 
his battle for a rebound with a Gopher. McCoy’s defensive 
ability rated high in Spartan strategy.

Big Bob Armstrong wheels for a hook as the Spartans upset 
league-leading Minnesota, 87-75, to raise their hopes for a title.

Big 10 action resumed with the Spartans hosting Purdue, 
and staving off a Boilermaker rally to post a 79-72 win.
History was written as the Spartans traveled to Madison 
and beat the Badgers, 73-70, for their first Big 10 road 
win in three seasons. Again it was a story of the dynamic 
duo of Ferrari and McCoy, with the pair pouring in 24 
points apiece.

A trip to South Bend netted the Spartans a 93-79 win, 
their fifth straight. Ferrari was the big gun, scoring 26 
points and notching his 1,000th point for the green and 
white.

A three game loss streak followed, with Northwestern, 
Illinois and Iowa dropping the Spartans to shatter their 
title hopes.

195

Clinging desperately to the first division, State hosted 
Northwestern with fourth place at stake. The Spartans 
grabbed the fourth slot with a narrow 71 -69 win.

Indiana came to town next, and Ferrari led the Spartans 
to some sweet revenge, blasting the Hoosiers 93-77. 
Ferrari broke a Big 10 record and two school records 
while racking up 35 points. It was the first conference 
win for a State team over Indiana.

Just to prove that the first one wasn’t a mistake, the 
Spartans traveled to Ann Arbor to hand the Wolves an 
83-68 beating in the season finale.

The three game win streak gave the Spartans sole pos­
session of fourth place in the Big 10 with an 8-6 conference 
mark and a 13-9 overall record.

Four seniors, Ferrari, Bob Armstrong, Bob Devenny 

and Jim Harris, were lost through graduation.

It’s McCoy again, going up for a shot against Northwestern as 
Bob Armstrong turns to cover the backboard should Julius miss.

Iowa center Bill Logan goes up for a 
shot while Michigan State’s Duane 
Peterson leaps to try to block the attempt.

Al Ferrari takes off for a jump shot for two of the points tha 
helped him set three school scoring records as State whippe< 
Indiana, 93-77, for their first Big 10 win over the Hoosiers

During his four-year career at State, trophy engravers 
and record book writers wore out their A1 Ferrari stencils. 
Three times Ferrari’s name was etched on the cage squad’s 
Most Valuable Player trophy; it appeared four times in 
the school record book and once, briefly, in the Big 10 
records.

In addition, the sharpshooting forward was named team 
captain in his senior year and accorded All-Big 10 honors 
that year, finishing fourth in conference scoring.

Ferrari set a season scoring mark of 351 points in his 
sophomore year. After Julius McCoy set a new record 
of 409 the next season, A1 reset it at 442 points.

He also set a single game record of 35 points in the 
Indiana win and a career mark of 1,119 points. He held, 
for one week, the Big 10 game record for free throws (21), 
also against Indiana.

Known to the players as the “Moose,” Ferrari is called 
by Coach Forddy Anderson, “the best player I have ever 
coached.”

Starting the year listed as prospective also rans, the 

Spartan baseballers slammed their way into the Big 10 
championship and then into the NCAA tournament.

They posted a 25-10-1 record in their best year in 
history and led the Big 10 in hitting with a phenomenal 

.313 average.

Individually, too, the Spartans shone, placing seven men 
in the All-Conference listings and two on the All-American 
teams. Tom Yewcic was a first stringer on both teams, 
while Jack Risch, who finished second in the Big 10 in 
batting, was on the first All-Conference team and second 
All-American squad. Chuck Mathews was also an All-Big 
10 choice.

The Spartans had an 11-2 mark for their Big 10 title.

Dixie trip is warm up

Chuck Mathews looks it over and decides it’s inside, and takes 
it for a ball.

Taking their annual Southern training jaunt, Michigan 
State came back with a 3-7 record, posting wins over Duke, 
North Carolina and Fort Eustis.

Opening the season with a win, MSC beat Wayne 4-2 

in a home game. Then followed another home win, over 
the University of Detroit, 9-3. Johnny Matsock won him­
self a regular position by banging out a triple, double and 
two singles in four trips and stealing home for the final run.
Taking to the road for their Big 10 opener, the Spartans 

topped Northwestern 4-0 as Bud Erickson tbssed a two- 
hitter. Then came a 3-3, 13 inning tie with Wisconsin.
Illinois provided the opposition as the Spartans returned 
home for more Big 10 play. The Illini, defending co­
champions, fell 17-3.

The following day, the Spartans walloped Purdue 12-0 
in the first half of a double header, then lost their first 
game of the season in the nightcap, 5-2. Dan Brown and 
Bob Powell provided the punch in the 12-0 win, each 
connecting for a home run.

Then came a non-conference breather, and the Spartans 
whipped Notre Dame 8-1 on Powell’s homer and two 
singles.

Back on the road, the Spartans grabbed the Big 10 lead 
with a 6-3 win over Iowa, then cemented their hold on 
first with a double header win over Minnesota, 8-5 and 6-2.

In the first game, Ed Hobaugh won his fourth game of 
the year and Tom Yewcic, Bob Powell and Roy Collard 
scored with home runs.

Jack Risch, the team’s leading hitter and second in the Big 10 
gets a big reception after clouting a home run to give the Spartans 
a 5-2 win over Indiana.

Title 

race narrows

Following the Minnesota series, the Spartans vaulted 

into the lead in the conference batting race.

And they needed every bit of their power as they faced 

a three game series with Michigan. Bob Powell’s long 

home run gave Ed Hobaugh his third straight conference 

win as MSC downed the Wolves 6-4 in the first game, at 

East Lansing.

The following day, they traveled to Ann Arbor and split 

a twin bill, winning the opener 8-4 and dropping the 

nightcap, 9-8.

The Spartans had an 8-6 lead going into the final inning 

of the nightcap, but Howie Tommelein slammed a three- 

run homer to win for the Wolves.

Another breather and Coach John Kobs took his charges 

to Detroit, where they whipped Wayne, 6-2.

Then back into Big 10 action and a win over Indiana 

as Danny Brown and Jack Risch clouted home runs.

Coach John Kobs (25) talks it over with his battery, pitcher Ed

Between games of the MSC-OSU doubleheader, Coach 

John Kobs was presented with a certificate honoring him 

in the Helms Foundation Hall of Fame for his contribu­

tion to baseball on the collegiate coaching level.

Kobs, who was in his 30th year as Spartan coach in 

1954, is also a past president of the American Associa­

tion of College Baseball Coaches. During his tenure as 

Spartan coach, over 50 of his players have signed pro­

fessional contracts.

Kobs has also been elected one of the five top all- 

around athletes in the state of Minnesota’s history. At 

Hamline University, St. Paul, Minn., he won 13 letters 

in four sports.

The final day of the Big 10 play dawned bright and 

clear, with the Spartans playing OSU in a doubleheader 

and needing only a win to tie for the title and a pair of 

wins for undisputed possession.

With Buckeye shortstop Howard (Hopalong) Cassady 

committing six errors, the Spartans won the first game, 6-4.

In the second game, Bob Williams hit two home runs 

for MSC, but they trailed 5-3 with one inning to go. Then 

with the bases loaded and one out, captain Jack Zeitler 

grounded into a force play. The man on third scored and 

George Smith, who had been on second, slid across in a

In the first extra innings Dan Brown doubled and Bob

Brown scored to make the Spartans undisputed Big 10 

champions.

Third in NCAA

The Spartans hosted the NCAA regional play-offs and 

won them, topping Ohio University twice in the three game 

series. They won the first game 14-10, lost the second 

7-0, and won the rain-shortened third game 5-3.

Traveling to Omaha, and the College World Series, 

the Spartans won their opener 16-5 over Massachusetts. 

Yewcic, Matsock and Risch homered, with Yewcic’s 

coming with the bases full.

They followed with a 2-1 win over Arizona, before 

losing to Rollins 5-4. They bounced back to beat Rollins 

3-2 only to be eliminated from the play-offs with a 4-3 

loss to Missouri.

Terry Block and Gay Denslow finish 1-2 as the Spartan harriers 
edge Wisconsin 27-28, for their only dual meet win of the year.

Harriers lose titles

Hit by early season ineligibilities, the harriers finished 

with a 1-2 dual meet record and were unsuccessful in 

three title defenses.

With captain John Cook scholastically sidelined and 

sophomore Selwyn Jones ruled out by the Big 10, the 

Spartans lost, 23-36, to Penn State and to Ohio State, 

27-30. The lone win came over Wisconsin, 27-28.

In championship tourneys, the Spartans lost their Big 

10, IC4A and Michigan AAU titles. They finished second 

to Michigan Normal in the AAU meet, second to Mich­

igan in the Big 10, tenth in the IC4A and twelfth in the 
NCAA.

Sophomore Gay Denslow was the bright spot for the 

harriers. He was the first Spartan across the line in six 

meets, copping two seconds, a third, fifth, eleventh and 

twelfth. He was rewarded for his fine showing by being 

elected captain to replace the ineligible Cook.

Hockey team sets MSC record

Although they posted the school’s best hockey record 

in history, the icers still wound up in the Western Inter­
collegiate Hockey league cellar. The Spartans ended with 

a 9-17-1 record and a 5-14-1 league mark.

Individually it was a good year as Jim Ward broke two 

scoring records and Weldie Olson tied another. The three 

records had been set a year previously by Olson.

Ward and Olson, the Spartan scoring twins, finished 

six and seventh in league scoring, two points apart.

The season, the second in a row that set a record for 

total wins, marked the end of an era as seven seniors 
graduated. All seven came to State with Coach Amo 

The icers started out strong in league play, breaking 
even in their first four two-game series. They won a 
game each from North Dakota, Denver, Colorado and 
Michigan Tech, with the win over Colorado ranking as 
one of only four the Tigers suffered.

But the Spartan fortunes took a tailspin after that as 
they lost nine straight league encounters. They finally 
broke the string with a 2-1 win over North Dakota at 
Grand Forks.

Following the win, the squad was stranded in Grand 
Forks for two days by a blizzard and engine trouble on 
their plane.

Back on home ice, the Spartans held Minnesota to a 

Bessone when the ice sport was reactivated in 1951. The

and cited Olson as the team workhorse and Gipp as the 
most improved player.

Ward scored 43 points to set a record and also estab­
lished an assist mark, with 28. Olson equalled his own 
goals record, flashing the red light 21 times. Ed Schiller 
and John Polomsky were named 1955-56 co-captains.

The swimming team posted a 7-3 dual meet record and 
finished fifth in the Big 10 tournament. Captain Tom 
Payette and John Dudeck were the big winners for the 
Spartans, along with the 400-yard relay team.

Payette anchored the relay quartet and also was a 
point winner in the 50 and 100-yard freestyle races. 
Dudeck, one of the nation’s top breaststrokers, set new 
dual meet and school records all year in the recently 
revived orthodox breaststroke.

In the national meet, the Spartans were shutout for the 

first time since 1946.

The dual meet season started well with three straight 
wins, over Iowa State, Bowling Green and Wisconsin.
But a road return meet with Iowa State proved disas­
trous for the Spartans. The Cyclones posted a 54-39 win 
over State, the first dual meet, other than with Ohio State 
and Michigan, that the Spartans had ever lost under Coach 
Charles McCaffree.

The following week Ohio State hung a second straight 
loss on the Spartans, also on the road. Back home, State 
racked up wins over Illinois and Purdue, before falling 
to Michigan. Spartans closed with wins over Iowa, In­
diana.

In two pre-season invitational meets, the shuttle hurdle 
relay team was the bright spot in both the Ohio State and 
Drake relays, winning the Drake title.

Captain John Corbelli was the individual star, running 
in both hurdle events and on the shuttle hurdle relay team. 
In both dual meets, Corbelli posted victories in the high 
and low hurdles and also scored points in both events in 

the Big 10.

Opening the dual meet season at home, the Spartans 
posted a 79-62 win over Notre Dame. They won eight of 
the 15 events with captain John Corbelli turning in two 
wins. The other first place winners were shotputter Dave 
Goddell, sprinter Kevan Gosper, high jumper Don Hill- 
mer, Dick Jarrett in the 880-yard run, Ed Brabham in 
the broad jump and the mile relay team.

Each team slammed one event, the Spartans sweeping 

the broad jump and the Irish dominating the javelin.

The dual meet record was evened at 1-1 as Penn State 

beat the Spartans, 71-60.

Corbelli paced the losing cause, copping both hurdle 
events. Other Spartan winners were Dave Hoke in the 
880, John Cook in the mile, Jim Vrooman in the high 
jump, Ray Eggleston in the broad jump and Chuck Coy- 
kendall tied for first in the pole vault.

Championship competition proved to be the best part 
of the outdoor season, with the Spartans placing third in 
the Big 10, 28th in the NCAA and posting a win in the 
Central Collegiate Conference tourney.

In the conference meet, John Cook turned in the only 
Spartan first, in the mile run. Seconds were earned by

Rated as no better than fifth place material before the 
Big 10 title meet, the Spartan indoor track team astonished 
the conference by finishing a strong second to champion 
Michigan, outclassing highly rated Indiana, Illinois and 

Iowa.

Only nine Spartans scored points in the big meet, with 
Ed Brabham leading the way with 14 points. He won 
the 60-yard dash title and the broad jump, finishing sec­
ond in the 300-yard run.

Captain Kevan Gosper scored 11 points as he won both 
the 440 and 600-yard races and anchored the mile relay 
team to a third place. Joe Savoldi had one of the best 
days of his life as he finished second in the 70-yard high 
hurdles, and third in the high jump and shot put. His 
high jump mark of 6'4" and his shot put toss of 49'34" 
were personal highs for the busy Spartan.

Polevaulter Chuck Coykendall also hit a new personal 
and an MSC varsity high as he made the 13'9%" mark 
for second place. Sophomore George Best finished in a 

tie for fourth.

Travis Buggs finished third in the 60-yard dash and 
each of the relay team members won a point with their 

third.

During the regular season, the Spartans won a dual 
meet from Michigan Normal and lost one to Notre Dame. 
In a home quadrangular meet, they finished third, behind 
Missouri and Penn State and ahead of Ohio State.

The Spartans won a triangular home meet, beating 

Western Michigan and Northwestern.

Some of the top individuals also participated in several 

invitational and A AU meets.

Boxing:
NCAA Champs

Paced by Herb Odom’s second national title, the boxers 
won the NCAA team championship in the national tour­
ney at Pocatello, Idaho. Odom successfully defended the 
147-pound crown he had won in 1954. Two other Spar­
tans, sophomores Johnny Butler and Bob Boudreaux, 
gained the tourney finals but lost. Other points were 
scored by 178-pounder Bill Greenway.

The Spartans started the dual meet season by posting 
a 6V2-W2 win over Maryland, followed by an 8-0 shel­
lacking of Wisconsin State. The win streak ended when 
the Quantico Marines held State to a 4-4 draw, at Quan­
tico.

Returning home, the Spartans faced Wisconsin, one 
of the favorites to cop the NCAA title. But the Badgers 
were no match for George Makris’ men as State walked 
away with a 6-2 win.

Quantico traveled to East Lansing next and the Spar­
tans gained sweet revenge with a 5-3 win over the Leather­
necks.

In the season’s final match, State traveled to Madison 
and lost a 5-3 decision to Wisconsin. Sophomore 132- 
pound sensation Butler lost only one dual meet bout, to 
Badger Chuck Magestro.

With injuries wrecking havoc throughout the season, 
the wrestlers finished with a 2-7-1 dual meet mark and a 
sixth in the Big 10.

Wrestling most of the year without a heavyweight and 
hampered by other injuries to key men, the matmen beat 
only Minnesota and Iowa and tied for first in a quad­
rangular meet.

Big 10 tournament point winners were Jim Sinadinos, 
Bob Gunner, Ted Lennox, Norm Gill and Dick Hoke. 
Gunner and Sinadinos also won points in the NCAA 
tourney.

Sinadinos, a past NAAU champion, finished second in 

the 1955 NAAU tourney.

Coach Fendley Collins left the team late in the year 
to coach the United States wrestling team in the Pan- 
American games, with his grapplers winning four indi­
vidual titles and the unofficial team crown.

Fencers host NCAA

Although they won only two of their 10 dual matches, 
the Spartan fencers came through with flying colors in 
tournament competition, copping third in the Big 10 and 
14th in the NCAA.

Sophomore sabreman George Thomas was the individual 
bright spot, winning the Big 10 sabre championship and 
finishing sixth in the national tourney. This, coupled with 
his steady work in the dual meet season, earned him a 
spot on the second All-American team.

In the dual meet season, the fencers posted their pair 

of wins over Iowa and Chicago.

Besides Thomas’ title, conference fourth places were 
won by Jim Dooley and Luigi Odorico and points were 
scored by Chan Benton, Norm Winger and Jerry Breen.
In the nationals, held in Michigan State’s Jenison Gym­
nasium, the point winners were Thomas, Dooley and 

Breen.

Gymnasts 
place second

With a good crop of sophomores backing ace Carl Rintz, 
the gymnastics team had one of its best years, finishing 
second in the Big 10 and fifth in the NCAA.

Winding up a brilliant college career, Rintz won the 
conference aU-around crown and was runner-up in the 
NCAA all-around. He copped two conference individual 
crowns and three national titles, scoring 49 of the 55 
Spartan points in the national tourney.

Other conference point winners were Roland Brown, 
Don Leas, Dick Phillips, Herm Junker, Dick O’Brien, Ben 
Gunning and Jim Breza. Junker and Brown, along with 
Bob Marsh, posted ninth places in the nationals.

During the dual meet season, the gymnasts scored wins 
over Michigan, Iowa, Ohio State and Indiana before fall­
ing to Illinois, the conference and national champion. 
They wound up the season with a win over Minnesota.

Herman Junker, Carl Rintz, Bob Marsh, Don Leas, Jim Breza, 
Roland Brown, Dick Phillips, Dick O’Brien, Bill Coco, George 
Szypula.

Carl Rintz, the top gymnast in the Big 10 for two straight years, 
closed out his career by winning two firsts and the coveted all- 
around title. He paced gymnasts to a second place in Big 10.

Enjoying one of their best seasons, the Spartan golfers 
capped a winning year by escaping from the Big 10 cellar. 
Posting a 7-4 record during the dual meet season, the 
Spartan linksters turned in double wins over Western 
Michigan College and the University of Detroit.

On the debit side, they lost two meets to the Uni­
versity of Michigan and one each to Northwestern and 
Big 10 champion Ohio State.

Some of the sting of the twin losses to Michigan was 
eased when the Spartans beat the Wolves in the champion­
ship playoffs.

In the conference championship meet at Minneapolis, 
the Spartans climbed from the cellar to eighth place, edg­
ing the Wolverines by four strokes.

Captain Bill Albright paced the squad during the dual 
meet season with a 77 stroke average and sophomore Ken 
Rodewald turned in the top championship round showing, 
firing a 307 to place eleventh.

Squires won the number five singles title and Brogan was 
runner-up in the number three race.

Indiana won its third straight title, with the University 

of Michigan second and the Spartans third.

In other fall term action, Tom McDonald paced the 
gymnastics meet with two firsts and a third, with John 
Toth and A1 Dalgleish also copping firsts.

In doubles handball, Mai Citron and Bob Gustafson 
were the winners, taking two out of three matches in the 
finals.

Sigma Nu’s winning team displayed balance and strength in 
gaining title. After winning, it could stand still for a picture.

IM Basketball

A six-man Terrapin basketball team looked like any­
thing but turtles as they swept through the basketball 
schedule to win the IM cage title, defeating Phi Delta 
Theta, 35-34, in an overtime game, for the title.

The Terp’s were independent champs, the Phi Delt’s 
won the fraternity title and Butterfield 7 captured the dorm 
championship.

In the winter term gymnastics meet, Nick Smith domi­
nated the meet, scoring a first, three seconds and a third. 
Tim Cook was individual runner-up, scoring three seconds.
On the fencing scene, Pete Farmer, Harold Johnson and 
Joe Meszaras won titles while the champion in the hand­
ball tourney was Lacey Bernard.

Ed Duda, Ron Smith, Bob Bambach and Fran Lundin 

won weightlifting crowns.

Winter term also saw the introduction of an IM co- 
recreational night, with the Women’s Gym being opened 
on Friday nights.

The Delt-SAE game proved an exciting one as two players 
scramble for the rebound and others look on.

A. Lambda Chi player looks for a teammate so he can get rid

Bilodeau.

Dee McDonald of Sigma Nu won the IM individual 
championship with a total of 565 points, one of the highest 

marks in IM history.

The Snake sophomore won points in seven team and 
individual events. Of the team events, basketball 
11 
added the most points to McDonald’s total when the 
Snakes won the IM cage championship in 1954.

Sigma Nu was the top fraternity team of the year, with 
West Shaw capturing the dorm crown and Ulrey coming 
out on top in the independent race.

During spring term, Tog Shop won the IM softball 
title. In other spring term action, Bill Wedemeyer, Bob 
Hays and Bill Templeton won golf crowns. The baseball 
throw was won by John Schistman.

In fraternity tennis, Stu Lasson of ATO took the singles 
title and Curt Cormier and Parke Collins, also of ATO, 

won the doubles championship.

Dorm singles champ was Dave Frey of West Shaw and 
the doubles champs were Bob Morley and Bill Bowman, 

also of West Shaw.

Sigma Nu also won the IFC track meet, beating Sigma 
Chi by 14 points. It was the third Snake win in five years 
and they retired the traveling trophy. Ed Houldsworth 
of Delta Tau Delta was the individual pace setter, garner­

ing 15 points.

Michigan State provides educational op­
portunities outside of the classroom, and one 
of the most important of these is the Arts and 
Dramatics programs, featuring both student 
and professional talent. Highlighting these 
programs is the Lecture-Concert Series which 
brings outstanding artists of various expres­
sions to the Auditorium stage.

The L-C series was first authorized by the 
State Board of Agriculture in 1912. Its pro­
grams were originally held in the old Armory 
and later transferred to the Women’s Gym 
and the Peoples Church. James Whitcomb 
Riley and William Howard Taft have now 
given way to Sadler’s Wells Ballet and the 
Boston Symphony Orchestra.

Ballet at the Aud featured the Old 
Vic company of London in an 
adaptation of Shakespeare’s “A 
Midsummer Night’s Dream.” Lon­
don Festival Ballet was also warm­
ly received.

Prior to its brilliant performance, the Concertgebouw Orchestra 
of Amsterdam, under Rafael Kubelik, tunes up.

Old Vic Company members relax during an intermission in their 
performance. The ballet was well received by the audience.

Music begins 
L-C series

President Hannah chats with former UN secretary-general Trygve 
Lie and Mrs. Lie. The world diplomat spoke of United States’ 
need to remain strong in order to retain leadership. Question of 
UN membership for Red China dominated Lie’s talk.

Opera star Roberta Peters came to the Auditorium stage to give 
Michigan State students and community residents an opportunity 
to hear grand opera.

By way of the Lecture-Concert Series, culture comes to 
Michigan State from places as far removed from the class­
rooms of Berkey as London and Amsterdam. The regularly 
scheduled programs and the special numbers drew audiences 
from students, faculty and local residents.

Roberta Peters, one of the Metropolitan Opera Com­
pany’s most beautiful sopranos, opened the 1954-55 season 
to an enthusiastically appreciative audience.

Some of the world’s greatest symphonic music was 
contributed to the program by the Boston Symphony 
Orchestra. A week after its appearance, the world-famous 
Concertgebouw Orchestra of Amsterdam came to the 
Auditorium.

Ballerinas in tights and Shakespearean dress took over 
the stage when the London Festival Ballet followed by the 
Old Vic Company made appearances on the program. 
Traditional ballet selections, including the “Nutcracker 
Suite” and “Swan Lake,” were featured by the London 
troupe. Shakespeare’s “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” 
was danced brilliantly by the Old Vic Company.

pretation of Dvorak’s “New World” 
symphony.

Opera lovers, old and young, had their turn at the New 
York City Opera Company’s three performances. Children 
sat enthralled at the matinee performance of Humper­
dinck’s “Hansel and Gretel.” Later at the evening per­
formances, their older counterparts watched the unhappier 
endings of “Tosca” and “Rigoletto” with just as much 
enjoyment.

Boston Symphony director Charles 
Munch looks over the Dvorak score 
prior to the program.

The fine musical and dramatic per­
formances of Susan Yager as Tosca and 
Frank Eckart as Mario in the opera 
“Tosca” thrilled the audience. The 
following night, the New York company 
staged “Rigoletto” on the L-C series.

Symphonies, 
lectures featured

Twenty-two Vienna Choir Boys sang to a full house for 
their two-hour show. Drawing selections from sacred 
music and the one-act opera, “Schubert’s Practical Jokes,” 
the group charmed the audience throughout the program, 
like Franck’s “Panis Angelicus” and 
handling pieces 
Dvorak’s “Humoresque” with an ability that would have 
done credit to adult choirs.

The Lecture Concert Series took on a more serious 
atmosphere as Trygve Lie, the United Nation’s first secre­
tary general, told of the United States and the United 
Nations. His talk was well attended by students eager to 
learn more of the tense world situation.

John Gunther, noted world traveler and author, described 
his experiences in Africa, recently the subject of one of 
his books.

The Detroit Symphony opened the first Lecture-Concert 
performance of 1955. Selections included Mozart’s “Mar­
riage of Figaro” overture and Beethoven’s Seventh Sym­
phony. Conductor Paul Paray led the musicians through 
parts of “Tristan and Isolde” and the overture of “Die 
Meistersingers” for an appreciative audience.

The Vienna Choir Boys, making an American tour, brought a full 
house to the Auditorium. The youngsters showed themselves not 
only as good musicians but as mimics and comics as well, in the 
lighter parts of the program, “Schubert’s Practical Jokes.”

Detroit Symphony Orchestra conductor Paul Paray considers his

The four principal soloists of the “Victor Herbert Festival” chatted 
together immediately before their performances. The show re­
called music of another day to the audience.

Switching from the classics, the Victor Herbert Festival 
brought pop tunes of the turn of the century to the Audi­
torium stage. Faculty members listened nostalgically to 
Herbert songs like “Ah, Sweet Mystery of Life,” from 
pre-juke box days. But students, too, recalled easily such 
perennial favorites as “In Old New York” and “Sweet­
hearts.” Other well known selections included pieces from 
“The Red Mill” and “Naughty Marietta.”

From backstage, this is how the chorus of the “Victor Herbert 
Festival” appeared during one of its numbers. Songs and dances 
sparked the evening. Selections included Herbert’s operettas.

Dean Stanley Crowe, director of the Lecture-Concert Series, 
violinist Isaac Stern and his accompanist, professor Henry Harris 
look over Mr. Stern’s music.

The brilliant piano interpretations of Myra Hess enchanted the 
L-C series audience. Dame Hess was particularly excellent on 
the seldom heard Scarletti selections and the Brahms Intermezzi.

Medico-legal expert, Dr. LeMoyne Snyder, 
told of scientific 
criminal investigation. Dr. Snyder is the son of a former Michi­
gan State president, Jonathan Snyder.

Two soloists, ranked among the top pianists and 
violinists in the world today, ended the concert series.
Dame Myra Hess, on an American tour from her native 
England, performed a fairly lengthy program with selections 
from Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, Scarletti and Schumann. 
After the programmed pieces, Dame Hess was called back 
to play two Brahms Intermezzi and a transcribed Bach 
Chorale as encores for her brilliant piano artistry.

Violinist Isaac Stern was received with the same favor 
as his forerunner. He played a program varying from 
Mozart to Franck to Bartók with unvarying excellence.
From near at hand, Dr. LeMoyne Snyder, Lansing 
medico-legal expert, told of the humanitarian work of the 
“Court of Last Resort,” with which he is closely associated.

A sample of the fine skating ability demonstrated at the Holiday 
on Ice show was this routine which thrilled spectators.

Lovely ladies filled the ice in the spectacular production numbers. 
Elaborate costumes and choreography were part of each number.

Holiday on Ice

Other shenanigans on ice included a slapstick parody 
on opera and a number depicting the joys of a sailor’s life.
Hitting close to home was the finale. The entire com­
pany of the show skated in a salute to the Bowl games, 
complete with queens. Each of the Big 10 schools was 
represented by its song and colors.

Gina Rubaki and Phil Hiser skate gracefully over the ice. Hiser, 
popular last year, was well remembered by the large audience.

Michigan State students had hardly returned from the 
Christmas vacation, when they were treated to a “Holiday 
on Ice.” Hockey took a back seat for a week while the 
skating review filled the ice arena with professionally 
flashing silver blades.

Taking a cue from the movies, two of the show’s pro­
duction numbers featured music and characters from 
recent films. “The Merry Widow” showed beyond a doubt 
that waltzing is never so graceful as when it is done on 
skates. Skaters and the Holiday on Ice choral group glided 
and sang to the world famous Franz Lehar music.

Appealing to youngsters and the young at heart, the 
troupe next presented “Storybook Village.” The immortal 
childhood characters, made famous in children’s books 
and Disney movies, performed. Peter Pan, Alice in 
Wonderland, Dorothy of Oz and Mother Goose delighted 
all ages.

Spectators were offered a variety of acts ranging from 
an exotic East Indian dance to skating interpretations of 
Broadway tunes like “Lullabye of Birdland” to fancy 
figures on skates with stilts.

Spring term, 1954, brought the telling of a “Winter’s 
Tale’lto Fairchild Theater. The play was sponsored, as 
are all the term plays, by the national student dramatics 
honorary, Theta Alpha Phi.

Producing the Shakespearean comedy called for much 
work and research to make costumes, music, dancing and 
sets ring authentically of seventeenth century England.
Guest director Professor Nevill Coghill, distinguished 
visiting lecturer from Oxford University, England, was of 
immense aid in setting the proper Shakespearean atmos­
phere. Noted as a scholar of early English literature, 
Professor Coghill had directed the play twice before at 
Oxford.

Original music and dances were composed by MSC 
faculty, in seventeenth century patterns. Costumes fol­
lowed the dress as shown by artists who were contempora­
ries of Shakespeare.

David Lawson, son of a Michigan State faculty member, tells a 
tale of his own to court ladies-in-waiting as the young Prince in 
the “Winter’s Tale.”

Comedy, more slapstick than Shakespeare’s va­
riety in spring term, filled fall’s playbill. The 
Elliot Nugent-James Thurber collaboration, “The 
Male Animal,” brought down the house with its 
hilarious portrayal of a professor’s struggles to 
keep hold of his ideals, his wife and his job.

Co-playwright Nugent encouraged the cast with 
a wire wishing them best luck with their perform-
ances.

The play, satirizing campus life, left the Michi­
gan State campus for a road tour after its three 
scheduled performances in Fairchild. The stu­
dent actors had no rest over the Thanksgiving 
holiday. As part of the Continuing Education 
Cap and Gown Series, they toured all vacation 
with the play, as the Michigan State players.

Communities throughout Michigan saw the 
comedy, with its humorous presentation of the 
problem of academic freedom. Happily, in the 
end the problem is solved with the professor man­
aging to keep his wife, despite a handsome ex­
halfback, and retain his job, despite his still un­
orthodox ideas.

A battle over a point of honor ends with Ron Neubert, as Tommy 
Turner, on the couch and his daughter’s boy friend, William 
Rocz, lying on the floor.

Suzanne Rouse, as Ellen Turner, and Jim McGreevy, a young 
football player, listen to Frank Bramen, one-time hero half-back, 
explain the “statue of liberty” play which brought him fame in 
the Nugent-Thurber hit play, “The Male Animal.”

Above—Ellen’s former sweetheart and her husband discuss the 
good old times when both were courting her. Right—Dave Shep­
ard, as dean of the college, defends Turner and his ideas to one 
of the college trustees, played by Ron Gainer.

At the Turners’ pre-game cocktail party, Frank Bramen is talked 
into riding in the place of honor in the pep parade.

Roger Birtwell, as black sheep Joseph 
Surface, and Lou Parker, as Lady 
Sneerwell, head of the School for 
Scandal, plot together.

Household servants John Goetz, Madge Meany, Reginald Mason 
and Lois Patenge gather to discuss the activities of their masters.

Appearances are against Jann Rose, as Lady Teazle, when Ron 
Gainer, as the respectable Charles Surface, unscreens her in his 
brother’s apartment.

Dramatics from Michigan State’s past took the stage 
winter term. In honor of the 1955 Centennial year cele­
bration, the play reached back to the first theatrics given 
at Michigan State and brought back “School for Scandal” 
as the first play in the second hundred years.

The period piece was written by Richard Brinsley 
Sheridan as a brilliant commentary on eighteenth century 
manners and morals.

234

The play was first produced at Michigan State in 1910. 
For the 1955 performance the director of the first MAC 
production and several of the original cast members were 
invited back to see the show.

After the performance, complete with a harpsichord 
tinkling in the background, the original director was 
brought on stage for a curtain call.

With members of the cast, he recalled how they had 
to send “way to New York for the fancy costumes.” One 
1910 cast member told of using the students’ own bed­
spreads for backdrops.

Both members of the 1910 production and of a later 
1934 version agreed the modern production was an im­
provement over the “good old days.”

School for Scandal

Premium and played by Ron Neubert, and auctioneer 
Ray Thomas try to persuade nephew Charles to sell a 
portrait of Oliver. Below—Charles Surface is presented 
by his brother Joseph to Lady Sneerwell in a moment 
she has been anticipating.

Frank Serreseque, as Sir Peter Teasle, and Douglas Easley, as

right to gossip about her friends.

Childrens Theater

Traveling drama is the specialty of the Michigan State 
Children’s Theater. “Beauty and the Beast,” fall term, 
and Mark Twain’s “Huckleberry Finn,” winter term, 
toured ten out-state cities in addition to Lansing and East 
Lansing. Altogether, the dramatic students delighted an 
estimated 20,000 children with their two productions.
A new system of continuous touring was established 
this year. The performances were scheduled to fall on 
successive days. Cast, crew, sets, costumes and equipment 
start out on a Wednesday night and set the stage that 
night for the morning’s performance. Following the after­
noon show, the members pack up for the next town, ready 
to begin again.

Another branch of children’s dramatics is the Toyshop 
Theater. Grade school and high school children do the 
acting, head the crews and make the sets, assisted by the 
college students. Fall term, Toyshop presented Humper­
dinck’s opera “Hansel and Gretel,” followed winter term 
by the “Wizard of Oz.”

Floating down the Mississippi on their raft, Douglas Easley, as 
Jim, and Bob Johnson, as Huck, appearing in the Children’s 
Theater production “Huckleberry Finn,” discuss the peculiar pref­
erence of Frenchmen for speaking French instead of American.

The King, played by Bob Neece, prepared to defend himself and 
his cohort, the Duke, played by Jim Gray, against “murderer” Jim 
who’s just been discovered hiding in the cabin.

Musical Recitals

m
t
s
E
W

Faculty members of the music de­
partment have an opportunity 
to 
present recitals and often play many 
of their own compositions.

Pat Douglas is accompanied at her recital in the music auditorium. 
Applied music majors are required to give at least one recital.

William Stein, Romeo Tata, Pat Smith and Glen Halik are among 
the members of the Michigan State Faculty Symphony which 
performs at many college activities.

Most students aren’t aware of many of the outstanding 
musical performances on campus which are available to 
them and aren’t a part of the Lecture-Concert series. 
These are the recitals presented each week in the Music 
Building by music majors and faculty members.

Music majors are required to give a recital before they 
graduate which usually takes place during their senior 
year, after many terms of painstaking practice. Many of 
these students possess outstanding talent and frequently 
audition before famous musicians.

Members of the faculty and graduate students of the 
music department have combined their talents and formed 
the Faculty Symphony. The group gives public concerts 
and performs at special campus events which included 
Centennial activities this year.

The Michigan State Little Symphony is another instru­
mental group of faculty and students which gives frequent 
concerts. These performances not only serve as a source 
of entertainment for the musicians but provide an out­
standing learning opportunity for music majors.

Mens Glee Club

Don Springer, Lowell Everson, Jim McMahon and Kenneth Ish 
rehearse a new arrangement to be presented by the Glee Club.

The Men’s Glee Club is celebrating its fifty-fifth birth­
day this year. The group has expanded from a very small 
beginning to its present membership of 60 men. Those 
wishing to participate in the club audition spring term and 
enroll, as a regular class, receiving a grade, but no credit.
The Glee Club spends three days a week practicing for 
their coming programs. They have appeared on television 
and radio and have made recordings for national record 
companies. In January, the Glee Club gave a perform­
ance at the Edgewater Beach Hotel in Chicago.

The Glee Club participated in many Centennial activi­
ties, scheduling several programs for campus guests. The 
group entertains at the May Morning Sing when new 
members of the women’s honoraries are tapped.

Mary Muir accompanies Mary Lou Barnet and Margaret Keyser 
as the Women’s Glee Club members rehearse for their concert.

Womens Glee Club

One of the highlights of the Centennial activities was 
the May performance of Howard Hansen’s “Drum Taps,” 
which was given through the combined efforts of the 
Michigan State choral groups, the orchestra and the 
Women’s Glee Club.

The 50 coeds forming the Glee Club presented many 
musical programs throughout the year. The holiday sea­
son found them entertaining with carols and leading group 
singing in the Union. The coeds also entertained Farmers’ 
Week visitors at evening banquets. The members climax 
the year s activities with their annual spring concert which 
is the result of long hours of rehearsal.

An audition with the Glee Club director is the only 
requirement for admission to the group. At their weekly 
meetings the members rehearse new arrangements and 
this year concentrated their study on music from different 
periods of history.

cal arrangements with Chuck Aurand and Ray Burnett.

Marching Band

The Marching Band started preparing for its football 
season performances two weeks before classes began in 
September. The 130 member band marched at all but 
two of the games and on one occasion their formations 
were broadcast to Michigan TV viewers.

Three football trips were made by the marching Spar­
tans: Iowa City, South Bend and Ann Arbor. A high­
light of the season was the presentation of the 1954 Rose 
Bowl show at the Homecoming game.

In November, the band marched in the General Motors 
Parade in Flint to commemorate the production of the 50 
millionth GM car. The band made its final appearance 
fall term at the December graduation ceremonies.

Half time at the Washington State game was the scene of colorful 
band formations to celebrate the 100th anniversary of John Philip 
Sousa. Twenty-two Michigan high school bands participated in 
the final formation spelling out Sousa Centennial 1855-1955.

240

Winter term the band was reorganized for the concert 
season. Basketball games, out-of-town programs, Found­
ers’ Day, graduation and the Centennial Band Concert 
filled the band’s calendar. Dr. Edwin Franko Goldman 
was guest conductor at the Centennial Concert which 
attracted one of the largest audiences ever to attend an 
indoor band program.

Spring term found the band marching for the weekly 
military parades. Two outdoor concerts were presented 
in the Bandshell and the year was brought to a close 
with a graduation program.

Members of the marching band line up before going 
on the field. A new series of formations is executed 
each week during half time which means many hours 
of practice between games for the band members.

Band members relax on the train en route to the Notre 
Dame game. The band usually has its own train for 
traveling to away games.

Spectators at the Homecoming game got a special treat as the 
band gave a performance of its 1954 Rose Bowl show. One of 
the formations was the U. S. Shield performed with Purdue band.

241

Orchestra

Many hours of rehearsing are the main ingredient in 
making a successful orchestra. This is the belief of Pro­
fessor Louis Potter director of the Michigan State Orches­
tra, who rehearses the group three times a week. Most of 
the members are music majors who enjoy the opportunity 
to display the techniques they study in class.

The student instrumental group scheduled a busy pro­
gram of performances this year which was highlighted 
with the accompaniment of “Medea” given as part of 
the Lecture-Concert Series. The orchestra joined with the 
choral groups on campus and under the direction of its 
composer, Howard Hansen, presented “Drum Taps.” The 
orchestra took part in Centennial activities and accompa­
nied the production of the “Michigan Dream” written by 
two members of the faculty.

Orchestra members and director Louis Potter study “Drum Taps” 
which they presented under the direction of Howard Hansen.

The Michigan State Orchestra is composed of almost 50 members. 
Each year an honors concert is held and the group presents 
selections composed by its members, with an award being pre­
sented for the winning entry. Members of the music department 
faculty judge the selections basically on originality.

242

WKAR

Located in the Auditorium, WKAR has three studios equipped 
with outstanding broadcasting facilities to cover most of Michigan.

WKAR programing includes several children’s broadcasts.

Michigan State extends itself to the boundaries of the 
state through the voice of WKAR. Owned and operated 
by the college, WKAR is a pioneer in educational broad­
casting. First licensed on August 18, 1922, it is one of 
the three oldest radio stations in Michigan. 
Its sister 
station, WKAR-FM, is one of the state’s early frequency 
modulation stations and will soon go into its eighth year 
of broadcasting.

Operating with a power of five kilowatts, WKAR covers 
an area of 25 counties, reaching more than 78 per cent 
of the total population of Michigan.

An analysis of a typical week’s programs shows that 
55 per cent of the station’s total hours on the air is de­
voted to news, education and information and 45 per 
cent is music, largely classical and semi-classical. Farm 
and home-making interests occupy 33 per cent of the 
informational segment. Almost half of the total programs 
on the air are produced live in the studios or from 
remote points.

More than just a servant to Michigan residents, WKAR 
acts as a training ground for students who plan future 
radio careers. Twenty-five students are employed as part- 
time announcers, writers and operators.

243

Portable equipment from WKAR-TV is set up on the Red Cedar 
for a “Campus Capers” production which features live broadcasts.

TV technicians study monitor sets during a broadcast. WKAR-TV 
has three spacious studios and offices on South Campus.

WKAR-TV

Among many other “firsts,” Michigan State can boast 
of owning the state’s first educational television station, 
WKAR-TV. Operating on ultra high frequency channel 
60, WKAR-TV covers a 13,000 square mile area within 
a 65-mile radius of the campus.

Since January, 1954, the station has been bringing the 
classroom right into the home with a program series 
designed to help many Michigan residents complete their 
“almost finished” college careers.

WKAR-TV lists a total of 431 half-hour lessons per 
school term. These telecourses offer both credit and non­
credit subjects which correspond with work taken on cam­
pus. They include such subjects as driver education, 
humanities, literature and fine arts, political science, sales­
manship, teaching, typewriting and zoology.

The station also gives a weekly diet of news, music 
and sports, as well as agricultural, home economics and 
children’s programs.

Murgle and Company go into action as Mr. William Tomlinson, producer and coordinator of TV 
developments, and Mrs. Tomlinson manipulate the puppets on their weekly TV show, “Mr. Murgle.”

Student governing groups at Michigan 
State have been growing in importance and 
in scope since the college was founded. Gov­
erning bodies, which train students as citizens 
and as leaders, are organized by classes, by 
living units and by interest areas. They rep­
resent their units to the administration and to 
the student body. Student governing bodies 
provide the means for undergraduates to as­
sume responsibilities and to fulfill obligations.

The most important of these is the All-Col­
lege Student Government which controls most 
student activities. It had its inception in 1908 
when a Student Council was organized at a 
mass meeting. Council responsibilities in­
cluded supervision of college traditions and 
sponsorship of a limited number of activities. 
The Council grew, changing its basis of rep­
resentation from classes to interest areas and 
finally to the present form, living units.

Student
Government

The All-College Student Government is the 
most important of the MSC student governing 
bodies. Under its constitution, it has the respon­
sibility of legislating and administering for the 
student welfare.

The executive branch of the government is 
headed by a president elected from the Con­
gress membership. He is responsible for the 
enforcement and administration of Congress 
enactments and for the supervision of commis­
sions and bureaus which are created.

This year Student Government expanded 
into the fourth floor of the Union building, 
complementing its third floor offices. Financ­
ing of the government is based upon the quarter 
tax per student per term, which enables the 
government to sponsor special activities, such 
as pep rallies and dances.

President Bill Hurst directed Student Government in its many 
activities this year. After his election by the Student Congress, 
Hurst moved into his job of coordinating the many agencies which 
work under the government.

Top advisers to the president meet with him weekly to discuss 
government problems and special programs. Top Row—Russ

First Row—Bill Barry, Kay Line, Andy Foeller.

Judiciary

The All-College Judiciary has the power to rule upon 

the constitutionality of all enactments of Student Congress, 

as well as to enforce these rules if necessary.

Members of the Judiciary include two representatives 

of the Dean of Students’ Office, one representative from 

both Men’s Council and AWS, and three students appointed 

by the Student Government president.

The Judiciary rules on actions of the Congress and of 

the executive branch, as well as hearing appeals from the 

men’s and women’s judiciaries and from the election re­

viewing board.

Some disciplinary cases are referred to the Judiciary if 

the student requests. In this instance, the decision would 

be an advisory one for the Dean of Students to consider.

Student Congress

Student Congress, which meets once each week, is the 
legislative branch of the government. Members are chosen 
at the spring election in districts representing dormitories, 
fraternities, sororities, cooperatives, East Lansing and 
Lansing.

Each representative is assigned to one of the five 
standing committees. Bills introduced in the Congress 
are referred to the various committees for further con­
sideration before the Congress votes on them.

The elections and apportionment committee considers 
election regulations and supervises the election reviewing 
board. The committee on Congress business and state 
affairs hears bills pertaining to the workings of Congress 
and government activities.

Traffic problems and other matters of direct concern 
to students fall under the jurisdiction of the student rights 
and welfare committee. The finance committee considers 
all appropriations of government funds, and the organiza­
tion and eligibility committee is responsible for the charter­
ing and supervision of campus organizations.

Student congress meetings are presided over by Speaker Pat 
Callahan. Assisting him are secretary Nancy Jo Shafer and clerk 
Jim Bell.

Campus Chest

Campus Chest is a non-profit organization established 
in 1949 by the Student Government to consolidate campus 
solicitations for charity into one campaign.

The Board of Directors, the Campus Chest policy group, 
determines which charities shall receive allocations and 
handles all other administrative affairs. The board con­
sists of the director, appointed by the Student Government 
president, and five bureau heads, named by the director. 
The bureau heads are in charge of personnel, solicitations, 
special events, public relations and Spartacade.

Several innovations in the fall fund raising drive were 
made this year. For the first time, living units could 
pledge to donate a certain amount as a group. Outdoor 
solicitations were expanded to include two days. The 
result of the week long solicitations drive was a record 
breaking $4,500 fund.

Additions to this amount were made through Sparta­
cade, the spring carnival, the student-faculty auction and 
the ugliest man on campus contest.

Campus Chest personnel fill in the chart which showed the progress 
of campus living units toward their pledged goals in the drive.

AWS Judiciary 
Board

Joan Pace, Ann Martineau and Marilyn Brink discuss changes in 
the AWS handbook which is issued to all freshmen and new 
students to acquaint them with the women’s rules and regulations.

When the first ten coeds enrolled at Michigan State 
no provisions had been made for a women’s governing 
body. In fact no arrangements for housing them and no 
changes in curriculum had been made. This was soon 
remedied as Abbot Hall was established for coed housing 
and classrooms, and a home economics course was 
initiated.

By 1920 there was a need felt for a women’s organiza­
tion and the Women’s Self-Government Association was 
established. All MSC coeds were automatically members 
of the group who attempted to promote unity among the 
coeds and regulate in matters not under faculty juris­
diction.

The Associated Women Students took the place of 
WSGA in 1930. Like the WSGA, membership in AWS 
is made up of all Michigan State coeds. It soon became 
evident that this governing body could not handle all of 
the problems facing it as one unit. This facilitated AWS 
being divided into the Judiciary and Activities Boards.

Coeds who have had problems with the rules govern­
ing women’s activities are familiar with the workings of 
the Judiciary Board. This group, composed of represen­
tatives from each women’s living unit, hears and judges 
disciplinary cases and has jurisdiction over house rules. 
Whenever there is a revision in AWS laws the board 
attempts to interpret them to avoid any misunderstandings.

A WS Activities 
Board

Associated Women Students first came on campus in 
1924 and became a part of the national organization five 
years later. Since that time it has grown to be an important 
part of campus life.

The Activities Board acts as a coordinator for all 
women’s activities and strives to strengthen interest and 
cooperation by promotion of projects. Fall term one of 
the Board’s main activities is the Activities Carnival, co­
sponsored with the Men’s Council, which offers students 
an opportunity to become acquainted with campus organi­
zations available to them. A Big Sister program is estab­
lished by the Board to help new women students adjust 
to college life. Spring term Lantern Night is an important 
program which is shared with Tower Guard and Mortar 
Board and honors fifty outstanding senior women. The 
May Morning Sing sees the tapping for Mortar Board.

STUN, Student Texts Used and New, is a new activity 
which cooperates with students in purchasing and selling 
books. Coeds interested in entering the national Made­
moiselle contest fall term are guests of Activity Board.

Union Board

Essentially a service organization, Union Board’s main 
duty is to furnish every facility to the students which they 
can. Major activities in the past have centered around 
the Union Building, but Union Board members have 
widened their scope to include television programs this 
year. The programs, handled by the television committee, 
include furnishing talent lists, sponsoring organizations 
and. interviewing people such as fraternity presidents. 
This work is done in close collaboration with the television 
station and Mr. Ken Richards. This year a Centennial 
committee was added to work with WKAR-TV in con­
nection with the anniversary.

Another new innovation this year is the European tour 
sponsored by the Board. This trip is scheduled for a fifty- 
eight day tour preceded by an educational program pro­
vided for the students visiting the United Nations.

This year the Music committee sponsored programs 

the afternoon before many of the lecture-concerts in the 

Music Room which increased the understanding of the 

programs. This committee is contemplating extension 

into a Fine Arts committee. Also several new records of 

all types were added to the Music Room for the benefit 

of the students who may take advantage of the music 

facilities at no expense.

The all-board affairs committee this year initiated the 

ride bureau to help solve transportation problems. 

It 

offers two cards — “riders wanted to” and “rides wanted 

to.” This will utimately develop into a permanent cir­

cular file for student use.

Union Board officers include Mai Bertram, vice president, Betty 
Gase, president, and Elaine Jennings, secretary.

Mens Council

Men’s Council, governing body of Michigan State men, 
will soon be known as Men’s Union as the result of an 
organizational renovation this year.

The council, whose beginning dates back to the turn 
of the century, busied itself in earlier days with the super­
vision of the Freshman Beanie, the campus no-smoking 
rule and the development of a career program which later 
developed into the Career Carnival.

Men’s Council is now undertaking such programs as 
the study of the Freshman drop-out problem and the 
development of a big-brother program. Spring term the 
members began work on a Freshman Help-Center which 
will offer assistance to Frosh males with registration and 
orientation problems.

The new Men’s Union will be a three-branch organi­
zation. Its executive branch, including scholastic, social and 
similar departments, will be headed by the president who 
now serves on the All-College Executive Board and the 
Eligibility Board.

Its legislative body will be called Men’s Council and 
will be presided over by the vice-president. Also included 
in the union will be a four-man judiciary headed by a 
chief justice.

Junior Council

Whether it’s crowning Big 10 queens or backing an all­
college blood drive, Junior Council had an active year. 
The 17 member council includes the four class officers 
and juniors who were chosen on the basis of petition and 
personal interview.

“We’re out for blood,” was the seemingly vicious chal­
lenge of Junior Council as they attempted to boost College 
participation in the March blood drive. Blood donors 
listed their classes and the Council tabulated percentages 
so that totals were not influenced by class size. Junior 
donors wore “J” tags the week of the drive.

The Council also considered Centennial service projects 
for the year, and held junior coffee hours regularly each 
term. A junior newsletter was also edited containing 
information on the Council’s plans and activities. These 
newsletters were distributed to class members at the 
coffee hours.

The Miss Big 10 Queen contest was one of Michigan 
State’s most outstanding events and just about the most 
important topic for Junior Council members. They spon­
sored the contest and brought it to State’s campus for the 
first time. Previously, the queen was crowned at North­
western.

Eight coeds from the various Big 10 schools entered 
the contest which was held J-Hop weekend. Junior Coun­
cil provided transportation for the contestants and ar­
ranged a whirlwind weekend of guest appearances on 
radio and TV, at banquets and dinners. Escorts were pro­
vided for the dance. Miss Minnesota was crowned Big 
10 queen at the Saturday night dance.

The hard work of the Junior Council and committee 
members made the dance live up to its name, “C’est 
Magnifique.” The French theme was carried out in the 
pattern of a Versailles garden complete with fountain. A 
giant abstract drawing of a Frenchman and his lady fur­
nished the backdrop for Ralph Flanagan’s orchestra. Inter­
mission entertainment was a show-stealing professional 
Dixie-land band, “The Salt City Five” sextet. Council 
arranged for a nationwide broadcast both nights.

The executive committee of the Junior Council also 
picked the Block “S” chairman for next fall’s football 
season. The chairman worked with an eight member 
Block “S” board to plan formations, programs and ar­
rangements.

Freshmen will be signed up for the Block during sum­
mer counseling clinics and rehearsals will begin fall term. 
The board also set up a new system of attendance for the 
block which seats 1,000.

Jan Somers presents the Miss Big Ten trophy to Carol Goulet, 
from Minnesota, who is congratulated by second place Barbara 
Koch, from Ohio State. The Junior Council made arrangements

Committee members for the 1955 J-Hop were: Standing—Mary 
Ranney, Betty Wortman, Bob Gronewold, Tom Serpa, Jack Hoff­
man, Iris Leonard. Sitting—Don Stewart, Jeanne Joy, Dick Wood,

Sophomore Executive Council

Sophomore officers meet to discuss class projects. President Howard 
James outlines to treasurer Pat Tavenner, secretary Jeanne War­
rington and vice president Dave Kilborn plans for a sophomore 
sponsored vesper service. Council also took over centennial booth.

258

In order to coordinate underclass activities more effec­
tively, the sophomore class officers, elected spring term, 
1954, organized the Sophomore Executive Council as a 
steering committee for class functions. Ten students were 
selected from those that petitioned and the council began 
its big job.

Each member of the new council was named chairman 
of one of the Frosh-Soph Council committees. These 
included planning of coffee hours and vesper services, 
arrangements for Activities Carnival and Frosh-Soph Day. 
Other members of the council worked on the blood drive 
in which the sophomores contributed the most, and on a 
special introductory coffee hour for freshman class officer 
candidates.

As part of their participation in the centennial observ­
ance, the sophomores prepared and staffed the centennial 
information desk in the Union Concourse. Sophomores 
distributed pamphlets, answered the questions of visitors 
and sold centennial records.

Frosh-Soph Council

The Frosh-Soph Council again served as a joint body 
to supervise freshmen and sophomores in their activities. 
One of the biggest jobs the council had was the sponsoring 
of the Frosh-Soph Day program. Moved up to fall term, 
the contests brought first and second-year students together 
in races and a tug-of-war. A new feature of the program 
this year was the cheering contest at the Washington State 
football game. Freshmen waved green pompoms and 
sophomores showed white ones as they tried to out-yell 
each other. Although the frosh won this event, the sopho­
mores piled up points in other categories and won the 
Little Brown Jug for the first time in six years.

Council members continued their quarterly job of help­
ing perplexed students get through registration without 
needless delay. The members also greeted freshmen at 
the Union during the Welcome Week program and con­
ducted tours through the building for the new students.
Frosh-Soph Council consists of the officers of the two 
classes plus one sophomore and one freshman elected from 
each living unit on campus and Lansing and East Lansing.

Freshman vice president Jerry Hollinger, president John Rogers, 
treasurer Bonnie McIntosh and secretary Grace Taylor had the job 
of directing freshman activities this year, after fall elections.

Michigan State’s Engineering Council was established 

in October 1946, as a “nucleous organization to provide 

direction and leadership for all engineering school activities 

and to promote the best interests of the engineering school 

in relation to all college activities.” Council members are 

representatives from each of the technical engineering 

societies, each of the engineering honoraries and from the 

Spartan Engineer.

The council’s most important activity this year was the 

Seventh Annual Engineering Exposition held in coordi­

nation with State’s Centennial. The exhibits were designed 

to acquaint high school students with the many phases of 

engineering as well as to serve the campus. This exposition 

was the largest yet held.

The first exposition was held in May of 1949 and marked 

the dedication of the Electrical Engineering building. This 

year’s exposition came to a close with the annual Holiday 

Ball and the crowning of the Engineering Queen, Sue 

Johnson.

Agriculture Council

The Agriculture Council was founded in the early 1930’s 
and has expanded into the widely recognized governing 
body of today. It began by coordinating clubs to serve 
meals at the Farmers’ Week banquets and sponsoring 
student judging teams. As Michigan State expanded beyond 
the agricultural stage and the need for a student governing 
body arose, the Council supplied the initiative for such an 
organization.

Membership is composed of elected representatives from 
each ag club who are elected spring term and serve on the 
Council for the entire year.

Fall term the Council sponsors the Harvest Ball, the 
first semi-formal dance of the school year. The annual 
Achievement Banquet, sponsored by the Council in 
February, presents outstanding ag students with awards 
for scholarship and activities during the year.

The Agriculture Field Day was the highlight of spring 
term events with the student-faculty softball game and 
booths set up by the individual clubs. The Ox Roast 
Barbecue brought to a close a busy year for the Council, 
who strives to bring the students of agriculture closer 
together.

Officers of the Ag Council, Ted Leipprandt, John Hostetler and 
Chester Dejongh present their Queen, Judy Bradley, with her 
trophy. Judy presided over agriculture activities during the year, 
which was highlighted by her reign at the Harvest Ball.

Inter-Fraternity
Council

The Inter-Fraternity Council is the governing and co­
ordinating body for the 27 fraternities and 1500 affiliated 
men on the Michigan State campus. The IFC brings the 
fraternity men together in social, athletic and academic 
affairs and represents the fraternity system to the admin­
istration.

This year the constitution of the council was changed 
and the organization greatly revised. A Presidents’ As­
sembly, composed of the presidents of each of the houses, 
is the legislative body of the council and also elects the 
officers.

The Executive Council, including the president, vice- 
president, secretary and treasurer, forms the steering com­
mittee for IFC and directs most of the group’s projects. 
Committees carry out the plans of the other two groups. 
The standing committees include rush, social, public rela­
tions, personnel and scholarship, and are made up of 
fraternity men from all the houses.

Another new addition to the IFC was the creation of 
the Junior IFC, made up of the president of each of the 
pledge classes. This group is working to unite the pledges 
more closely and to plan campus wide pledge projects.

262

The IFC expanded into its own office this year. Personnel com­
mittee members were responsible for staffing the office and for 
making the charts to keep the council up to date.

John Wilson, Gordon Sinclair and Bob Kuhl, committee members, 
with Mike Getto, consider plans for the expanded IFC sponsored 
rush program and rush booklet to facilitate this program.

The IFC rushing system was improved this year to 
include two sponsored rush periods, fall and winter terms. 

This gave Greeks and rushees both a better chance to 

become acquainted.

The council’s social program included the annual IFC- 
PanHel dance which culminated Greek Week activities 

fall term, and exchange dinners and desserts which gave 
fraternity members the opportunity to widen their friend­
ships.

Panhellenic’s newest project is a series of fifteen minute television 
programs on WKAR each Monday evening. The programs, which 
attempt to acquaint viewers with sorority activities, are primarily 
devoted to the philanthropic project of each group. Sue Sessions 
and Sheila Tiemann discuss the production of the first program 
with Rhosan Dobben, chairman of the Panhellenic project.

Panhellenic Council

Newly elected Panhellenic president Sharon Beyer and secretary 
Margaret Miller discuss future council projects with outgoing 
officers Judy Streng, Linda Freeman and Pat Scanlon.

The Women’s Inter-Society Cabinet was the governing 
body for the six local sororities on campus in 1921. After 
the founding of Alpha Gamma Delta and Alpha Phi the 
following year, the cabinet was reorganized as the Pan­
hellenic League with very limited campus activities.

In 1929 the Pan-Hel League joined the National Urban 
Panhellenic Council and later dissolved its membership 
with this council and joined the National Panhellenic. 
This was the beginning of a governing body which has 
become one of the most important on campus as it governs 
the activities of the 19 MSC sororities.

As additional sororities were founded, rushing became 
the most important function of Panhellenic. The council’s 
38 members have expanded their program during its 
growth to include weekly television shows on each sorority 
philanthropic project, community projects with East Lan­
sing charities, workshops and the co-sponsorshop of Greek 
Week and Greek Feast with the Inter-Fraternity Council. 
The council represents MSC sorority women on the AWS 
boards, Spartan Round Table, Student Government and 
the Executive Board.

Sororities have made an 

important contribution to 
Michigan State since their early beginnings in 1921. They 
offer good housing facilities, have supported community 
projects and have established good scholarship among 
their members. Through the able leadership of Pan­
hellenic, sororities attempt to serve Michigan State with 
good citizenship and leadership in college activities.

One of the most important Panhellenic service projects is daily 
visits to coeds hospitalized in the college health center. Council 
members attempt to make the stay in the hospital easier by fulfill­
ing patient’s requests of making phone calls, carrying messages 
and doing any other errands which are helpful.

In the spring of 1948, representatives from men’s 
dormitories realized the need for a coordinating and liaison 
body to handle inter-dormitory problems. The Men’s 
Inter-Dormitory Council was organized to meet this need 
and the first meeting was held on May 4, 1948.

In 1954 the name of the organization was changed to 
Men’s Inter-Residence Hall Council. The purpose of the 
council is the development of residence hall spirit, the 
fostering of activities which will strengthen residence hall 
relations, and the encouragement of participation in sports, 
organizations, social and scholastic activities.

The Council’s annual dance, the Sno-Ball, is presented 
winter term. The year’s activities are brought to a close 
with the All-A wards Banquet which honors competition 
among residence halls in athletic activities.

Womens Inter-Residence Hall Council

The Women’s Inter-Residence Hall Council sponsors the annual 
snow sculpturing contest between women’s dorms. This year first 
place went to North Campbell for its icy bookworm.

Six years ago the Women’s Inter-Residence Hall Council 
was formed as a representative body to promote spirit 
among the various member units. The Council has grown 
with the building of additional women’s living units until 
it now consists of representatives from the fourteen women’s 
dormitories on campus.

The Council’s first project this year was the Leadership 
Workshop, for all women’s dormitory officers, held in 
September. The result of this conference is a revised 
Officer’s Handbook which will serve all future dorm officers.

Spring term found council members busy planning a 
banquet honoring the outgoing and incoming dorm officers, 
and attending the annual Big Ten Living Units Conference.
The Council has adopted several projects which serve 
the campus including sponsoring the dorm homecoming 
display contest, the snow sculpture contest and the inter­
dorm sing. The Council holds bi-weekly dinner and 
business meetings and in February initiated a council 
scrapbook at the Founding Day party.

267

Mens Inter Co-op Council

The Inter Cooperative Council, the coordinating body 

for the seven men’s cooperative houses on campus, was 

established shortly after World War II. It was organized 

to meet the needs of the growing number of cooperatives 

during those years of expansion at Michigan State.

The Council has no legislative power. It is a coordi­

nating and advisory group only, since all the houses are 

owned by the members. Each co-op is entitled to one 

representative for every ten men.

Some of the projects the Council has undertaken recently 

are membership drives, joint meetings of individual house 

officers, co-sponsoring of the annual Co-Hop Dance and 

meetings with the college administration on pertinent 

matters concerning the houses. The Council also sponsors 

Inter Co-op athletics.

The Council has become one of the top coordinating 

bodies on campus and it is constantly striving to improve 

its position and the role of the houses in campus affairs.

DeRidder and Henry Beaudry discuss proposed plans for new

Women s Co-operative League

Shirley Cubitt, Myrna Taylor and Marilyn Nuechterlein address 
invitations to the annual tea at which all cooperative houses honor 
their housemothers. College officials are guests.

All coeds living in cooperative houses are members of 
the Women’s Cooperative League. Each house elects two 
representatives to membership on the council which is the 
governing body for all co-ops. The president of each 
house is one of the representatives so the individual house 
activities and those of the league may be coordinated.

The president and vice president of the council are 
elected from the previous year’s group to provide ex­
perienced leadership for the council. A representative 
from the Co-ops to Student Government and AWS Activi­
ties and Judiciary Boards reports at each WCL meeting.
The council attempts to plan the affairs for all the 
houses as a unit. These include installation ceremonies, 
exchange dinners and a tea at which the cooperative 
housemothers are honored. The council sponsors several 
activities with the Men’s Inter-Cooperative Council such 
as exchange dinners, parties and a formal dance.

Court

The Student Traffic Appeal Court was created this year 
to handle appeals resulting from driving and parking viola­
tions. The need for such a board was apparent soon after 
the driving regulations were eased to allow students to 
use campus facilities more fully.

Appointments were made to the court by the Dean of 
Students after recommendations were made by the student 
government president.

Spartan Village ▼ 

Council

Reactivated this year, the Spartan Village Council gives 
students living in the married housing area a more definite 
voice in student life and provides them with an organiza­
tion through which they can work to improve conditions

Energies this year were directed chiefly toward improv­
ing driving regulations, developing a recreation and study

As a mature educational institution, Mich­
igan State now boasts five student publica­
tions. But this was not always the case. In 
the college’s early days, student publications 
had a rather sporadic existence.

The first college newspaper was the 
“Bubble,” founded in 1868, which soon dis­
appeared. In 1881, the “Speculum” took over 
reported the news and lasted until 1895.

The immediate forerunner of the Michigan 
State News, the Holcad, appeared in the early 
1900’s and two decades later, the State News 
officially began.

Yearbooks, too, came and went, before be­
coming stabilized in the Wolverine. In 1887, 
the short lived “Harrow” was the first year­
book. Ten years later came the “Heliostat,” 
and in 1901, the Wolverine began publication.

Managing Editor Bob Herman goes over recent issues of the State 
News at an editorial staff meeting in the busy newsroom. At these 
frequent meetings, some staff members are commended for good 
work, others criticized for mistakes and everyone benefits.

Michigan State News

“State News Hopes to Become Your Morning Habit,” 
proclaimed a headline in the newspaper’s Freshman edi­
tion. And once again, throughout the school year, the 
“All-American” ranked Michigan State News did just that.
It wasn’t accomplished without a bundle of hard work, 
however; much of it after most Spartans had “hit the 
sack” for the night.

For the State News has its own peculiar kind of “night 
life,” which sometimes lasts until 6 a.m. For one issue 
during the past year, the 16-page Centennial edition, staff 
members worked until 10 in the morning “stuffing” one 
section into another.

But to the more than 150 editorial, advertising and 
circulation people who put in some time for the State 
News, all of this effort was worth it.

And their work didn’t go unappreciated. To the 17,000- 
plus populace that makes up Michigan State’s student 
body and faculty, the State News is a welcome sight every 
morning of every class day.

272

Editor-in-Chief Jack Kole directed the operations of the newspaper 
for fall and winter terms. His “Kolemine” column often stirre 
up opinion on the campus.

For the State News, the school year starts more than 
six weeks before most Spartans pack their bags to return 
to Michigan State.

So it was during the past year as editor-in-chief Jack 
Kole, managing editor Bob Herman and advertising direc­
tor Reid Christensen started work on the 32-page Fresh­
man edition during the first week in August.

As summer school closed its doors, the first section of 
the issue was rolling off the presses. A couple of weeks 
later, the entire operation was completed, and the State 
News had produced a Freshman edition that college 
officials and students alike called the “best ever.”

A few weeks later, the huge task of organizing another 
staff for a year of five-days-a-week publication confronted 
the “front office.” By then, Bob Burns had returned to 
begin his second year as circulation director.

As always, the State News machine had a few rusty 
parts during the first days of publication. But it wasn’t 
long before everything was running smoothly again.

Of course there were still problems like mistakes in the 
paper. But when a reporter or an editor made a mistake, 
he or she heard about it, and simply tried harder the next 
time.

Fall and winter term managing editor Bob Herman moved up to 
the top position spring term. As managing editor, he directed the 
work of the editorial staff on the five-days-a-week publication.

The State News editorial board meets every week to discuss policy 
and editorial comment. Clockwise, they are Jackie Oldham, Stan 
Steinborn, Jerry Jennings, Louis Gropp, Walt Oleksy, Chuck

Miller, Betty Sugi, Jack Andrews, Jack Kole, Art Underwood, 
Betty Zuege, Myra MacPherson, Donn Shelton, Gene Ritzinger, 
Ann McGlothlin, Bob Herman and Debby Hall.

Getting the news

The “hot spots” of the State News editorial staff are 
filled by the five associate, or night, editors. A night 
editor’s job entails handling one newspaper each week 
from start to finish.

A day and a half before publication, the night editor

To retain the appeal to its readers, a student newspaper 
needs ideas. And the State News found them in abun­
dance.

In the fall, Spartan thoughts turn to football, so the 
State News reflected this thought. “Spartan Menu: Irish 
Stew” and “We’ll Win—It’s Michigan,” blared State 
News’ banners before the Notre Dame and U. of M. 
games, respectively. True, the Spartans lost both games, 
but the State News didn’t lose a thing. It gained.

During the winter term, the newspaper came up with 
another idea to support the drive to change Michigan 
State’s name to Michigan State University. “You Won’t 
See MSC’ in the State News No More,” the paper an­
nounced as it refused to use “MSC” or “college” in copy 
or headlines until it was able to officially call Michigan 
State a university.

Always coming up with more ideas are the special 
editorial staffs of the State News—sports, society and 
features. Almost every male student on the campus is a 
close reader of State News sports pages, especially if his 
intramural team saw action the previous evening.

Spartan coeds turn anxiously to State News society, 
often to see their own pinnings or engagements in print.

Whether it is selling a student classified on the phone 
or selling a full page to an East Lansing merchant, the 
advertising department is constantly “making a pitch.”

First and foremost of course is the job of selling the 
State News as an effective advertising medium, but that 
is only the beginning. Still remaining are the tasks of 
reserving space, writing the copy and laying out the in­
dividual ads. All of this takes place in that one cramped 
corner.

Each day the advertising director must confer with the 
top editors to decide such things as whether to run a 
“tight six page” edition or “go eight and lose a few 
dollars.”

Beneath the advertising director are students to handle 
national, local and classified divisions. But perhaps the 
account executives, who work directly with individual 
advertisers, make up the core of the department.

Ad department staffers Jerry Youngs and Art Sippola tell an East 
Lansing merchant the advantages of buying space in the State 
News. Most stores in the area do advertise.

Above—Reid Christensen served as advertising director throughout 
the year. He handled the money end of the daily newspaper.

Below—State News secretary Jean Davis and her assistant, Dorothy 
Schledom, handle scores of calls coming to the office each day.

The advertising department has only a cramped corner 
of the State News’ third floor Union offices. But it is an 
important corner, for more than $50,000 in advertising 
revenue is produced there for the State News each year.
Although the paper receives a substantial grant from 
Michigan State to finance its free circulation, the greatest 
portion of its income, like that of any newspaper, must 
originate from advertising.

Therefore advertising staff members know that despite 
the fact that they can’t match the editorial people with 
bylines, they are performing a function necessary for the 
survival of the State News.

sen points out sales charts to Sue

are used in many advertisements.

Dummying ads takes a lot of time but the result is well worth 
it. Guy Tunnicliffe, Roselyn Brown, Bonnie McDougal and Joanne 
Tosch show how it is done.

The paper goes to press

Art Underwood, spring term managing editor, checks a corrected 
galley proof with linotype operator Fred Veith at Campus Press.

While State News night staffs are doing the “paper 
work” in the news room, the production end of the job 
is being handled across the street at Campus Press.

And it is here that staff members go each night about 
10 to take a daily issue through its final stages. The hours 
from 5 to 10 p.m. are the crucial ones for the State News 
however. It is then that the editors must comb the copy 
for mistakes, assign and write headlines and decide which 
stories go where.

On a large campus such as Michigan State’s, that means 
a great deal of selection. Add to that the reams of material 
constantly flowing from the Associated Press on state, 
national and international affairs, and you have severe 
competition for State News space.

But State News editors have always been equal to the 
task and when they say “let’s go to press,” they know 
where they’re at. If they didn’t, they would be in for 
trouble.

Over at press, staff members read advertising and edi­

torial proofs, correcting the mistakes.

The whole operation ends in the wee hours. And 
although it’s been a long day, staff members go to bed 
knowing they’ve produced something that will get campus­
wide readership a few hours later.

Make-up man Tom Westfall of Campus Press puts a page “on the 
stone” as Joe Hoffman, Bob Herman and Ann McGlothlin look on.

■Ill

Correcting the mistakes on galley proofs are Dave Scollati, Mary 
Alice Ritchlin and Norma Nelson. All galleys must be read several 
times to eliminate errors.

Ed Vokes, circulation director Bob Burns and Bob Pond check 
the circulation lists as State News’ are loaded into cars for early 
morning distribution.

Producing newspapers would be to no avail if they 
weren’t distributed. Thus the vital function of the cir­
culation department becomes apparent.

When most Spartans are finishing up their dreams each 
morning, the State News circulation crew goes to work. 
There has always been one aim to this task—get the 
papers to the students before their eight-o’clocks.

By truck and by car, the State News is taken to all 
parts of the campus and to numerous living units off 
campus. With an increased enrollment, the circulation 
has jumped to more than 13,000, with more hikes ex­
pected in the future.

And as more students come to Michigan State, the 
responsibility of the State News grows even greater. For 
with it rests the task of keeping the campus population 
well informed.

Everyone s anxious to get the latest State News as Carl Mescher 
snips the string on a bundle at the Union Desk. Papers are picked 
up at living units, Berkey, Olds Hall, Natural Science and Kellogg.

Centennial
Wolverine

Publishing a college yearbook was a big job for the 
100 students who made up the staff of the 1955 Centennial 
Wolverine. Plans for the anniversary edition began several 
years ago, with consideration given to the type of book 
that would be published in MSC’s one-hundredth year.
More than a year ago research began on the college’s 
history which would be highlighted in the Wolverine and 
students began digging into libraries, albums and old 
yearbooks for ideas.

Yet the centennial requirements didn’t excuse the staff 
from continuing the many daily chores which make up the 
Wolverine. Shortly after appointments to the top positions 
were made last spring term, section editors and managers 
were named to supervise the various phases of the book’s 
production.

Before the staff had left for summer vacation, plans 
were well in mind for the ensuing year. Contracts had 
been let, a dummy had been prepared, photo and copy 
workers had begun their assigned jobs.

Editor Burt Gerber was chosen by the Board of Publications to 
direct the 1955 Centennial Wolverine. His work included super­
vision of the entire book, from original dummy to distribution.

As the campus swelled with the returning students fall 
term, Wolverine staffers energetically continued their work. 
Registration meant that seniors had to be contacted for 
picture appointments and details had to be worked out 
for the photography schedule.

Wolverine photographers trooped over the campus with 
their equipment, shooting scenes of campus life and events; 
copy writers followed behind with notebooks and pencils 
to complete the story.

Toward the end of winter term, the work on the 1955 
Wolverine moved closer to deadline. The pressing sched­
ules loomed nearer as each one of the section editors 
finished his assignment.

Index editor Maggie Ireland, seniors editor Katie Sundberg and 
editorial office manager Nancy Pickard check over their copy for 
the printer.

Ideas are talked over by organizations editor Don Lick and sports 
editor Donn Shelton as each works to finish his section on time.

Working closely together throughout the year helped copy editor 
Marcia Allen, associate editor Chuck Pardon and photo editor 
Dave Fouser accomplish their jobs.

The 1955 Centennial Wolverine broke all previous 
Wolverine sales records this year. When the campaign 

had ended in early February, the business office could 

point to an impressive 8,000 mark in sold books.

As in other years, sales pitches were directed to the 

students wherever they might be-—registration, Union, 
dining halls. But this year the business manager’s depart­

ment spent much of its efforts in selling the book away 
from campus. Each alumnus of Michigan State received 

a brochure describing the special centennial edition and 

alumni clubs also were contacted.

MSC faculty and staff members were also contacted in 
In all, more than 1300 off- 

the promotion campaign. 

campus sales were secured.

Doug Coulter supervised the business office which broke all records 
for the sale of college yearbooks. His staif was in charge of sales, 
promotion and advertising.

Right—This year the Wolverine 
took over part of the Union desk 
as a sales office. Coeds staffed the 
desk every afternoon.

Selling this many books required a great deal of organi­

zation in the business office. The sales manager and her 

crew of salespeople found Spartans wherever they were 

and sold them the book. The promotion manager covered 

the campus with signs and posters reminding the students 

of the approaching sales deadline.

Back in the office, coeds under the supervision of the 

office manager kept things running smoothly. Records of 

each sale had to be made, brochures had to be addressed, 

names had to be indexed and letters had to be typed. 

A busy advertising manager, contacting business concerns 

throughout the state, signed ad contracts for the book.

Centennial section

Production of the 1955 Centennial Wolverine required 
close cooperation with many people and sources. Photo 
and copy deadlines had to be carefully coordinated with 
the printer and engraver. Covers had to be ordered after 
the sales campaign had ended.

Most of the work on the Wolverine was done by stu­
dents but for some jobs professionals were consulted. The 
editor was helped by an engraving company artist in 
planning the dummy, and a professional photographer 
photographed seniors and organization pictures. But the 
heaviest burden rested on the students who made up the 
staff, and kept working throughout the year.

At the Founders’ Day award banquet, editor Burt Gerber unveiled 
the six Coppin paintings and presented them to Michigan State 
from the Wolverine on behalf of student body and alumni.

Special photographer Alton Taube and Wolverine photo editor 
Dave Fouser look over pictures with engraving company repre­
sentative Fred Noer to choose the best for the annual publication.

The once-in-a-hundred-year job of preparing the cen­
tennial section of the yearbook fell to Diz Peabody and 
her staff which began work more than a year ago.

The group began an energetic campaign to seek out old 
photographs of campus events. Alumni and friends of 
the college were consulted; files were carefully scrutin­
ized; appeals were sent out. Most of the photographs 
secured had to be retouched in order to give true repro­
duction.

Other students, assigned the job of writing copy, con­
sulted college records and previous publications to gather 
material for their work.

As a special treat to Wolverine readers and as a gift 
to Michigan State, the Wolverine commissioned John 
Coppin, Detroit artist, to do a series of paintings depicting 
the school’s growth over its first 100 years. When the 
series had been completed and was engraved for inclusion 
in the centennial section, the six paintings were presented 
to the school at the Founders’ Day banquet.

The great number of alumni and off-campus sales necessitated 
extra plans for distribution of Wolverines. Ann Austin, Bill 
Somerville, Jo Ellen Warmouth and Edna Halliday prepare a 
copy for mailing. Books were sent all over the world.

Above—Diz Peabody was responsible for the centennial 
section of the 1955 book. Her work involved painstaking 
detail in searching for old photos, looking through books.

Humor is not neglected at Michigan State because it 
has ample expression in the Spartan, monthly campus 
publication. The Spartan first appeared in 1936 as a semi- 
humorous magazine with various features. It has con­
tinued to grow, appearing regularly with the exception of 
World War II years.

This year the Spartan continued its usual features of 
humorous articles, stolen jokes and absurd picture series. 
But it also added a special section as an outlet for semi- 
serious writing, including original stories by Michigan 
State students.

Like the State News and the Wolverine, the Spartan 
also came out with a special centennial edition, immedi­
ately after Founders’ Day. This issue included pictorial 
reminiscences of the first 100 years and a prediction of 
student life at Michigan State during the second centen­
nial celebration.

Editing the Spartan this year was Gregg Stecker, a former art 
editor of the magazine. Stecker planned the various issues and 
supervised art and copy production.

Mary Roll and Marcia Allen help Spartan photo editor Ed Tenney 
choose pictures for the magazine from strips of film he has shot.

Proofreading for the Spartan are Bev Busch and 
Frank Thompson, feature editor. Humorous and 
semi-serious articles for the magazine are submitted 
by students as well as by Spartan staff members.

Art work is especially important for a humor magazine and artists 
consequently must spend a lot of time at their job. Spartan art 
editor James Hayden turned out pictures and cartoons for the 
monthly publication.

Top Row—Art Underwood, Scott Fitzgerald, Frank Thompson,

“As advertised in the Spartan” was recognized on dis­
play cards from New York and Detroit to East Lansing, 
this year as the Madison Avenue boys talked themselves 
hoarse selling advertising. Income from increased adver­
tising linage made it possible to utilize a lithographic insert 
and experiment with inside color pages.

The Spartan added more than a 1,000 readers to last 
year’s total with the help of promotional ideas which 
included Sparty Pix contests, fashion show, displays and 
the mesh-hosed, long stemmed mystery coed.

Spartan spirit reigned all during the year, but was 
especially evident when the business manager and his boys 
occasionally ventured with left over magazines to distant 
colleges to insure a sell-out.

Spartan Business Staff

Business manager Mike Ferrer directed the advertising, promotion, 
circulation, finances and all other facets of the Spartan’s business 
side activities. He was responsible for the many new promotion 
angles the Spartan used in selling the magazine.

Circulation is the subject of concern to assistant circulation man­
ager Joyce Comb with her stand managers, Sue Brinkman, Judy 
Vesotsky and Janet Rose.

Advertising, circulation, promotion and office finances 

keep the business staff busy on the Spartan.

The business manager was fortunate this year to have 
capable assistants in all these fields. In addition to their 
ability, the department managers and their staffs showed 
a keen interest in making this year’s issues the best yet. 
Early morning work was common with last minute changes, 
silk screening of promotion posters, copy and layouts for 
late advertising contracts, contest ballot counting, bun­
dling magazines and prolonged business meetings keeping 
the staffers busy.

Along with the hard work and hours stolen from studies, 
the business staff had a lot of fun, and most important of 
all, satisfaction of a job well done.

Spartan Engineer

This year marks the eighth year of publication for the 
Spartan Engineer. In these eight years many changes have 
taken place, most noticeable of which is the growth in size 
of the publication from twenty-eight pages per issue to 
over forty pages.

The magazine, which is published four times a year, 
is aimed at the interests of engineers and other students 
in related fields. Most of the articles, concerned with 
physics, mathematics and chemistry, are written by stu­
dents, faculty members and outstanding people in engi­
neering. Readers enjoyed a special treat this year with 
the addition of engineering crossword puzzles.

The 20-member staff included majors in engineering, 
geology, chemistry and journalism, offering a wide range 
of material for the readers.

Top Row—Thomas Ayres, Eugene Speller, David Mitchell, Har­
low Nelson, First Row—Alice Jacobson, William Bartley, Ray

MSC Veterinarian

The MSC Veterinarian isn’t located along Publication’s 
Row, on the third floor of the Union, and many students 
aren’t aware that it exists. The publication has its office 
in Giltner Hall, close to the interests of its readers.

The Veterinarian is a scientific journal published by 
approximately 10 veterinary medicine students with the 
assistance of a faculty advisor, Dr. C. F. Cairy.

The journal has a circulation of 1,400 with issues being 
distributed throughout the state and nation. It contains 
scientific articles written by well-known men in the field 
of veterinary medicine, in addition to case reports, ab­
stracts and reviews and student and alumni news.

291

Publications photographers

The student darkroom, located along publications row 
on the third floor of the Union, is the nerve center for all 
the pictures which appear in student publications. The 
State News, Wolverine, Spartan Magazine and Spartan 
Engineer are served by this darkroom.

Photo editors appointed on each publication are respon­
sible for assigning the pictures needed. The photographer 
who is assigned, shoots the picture and returns to the 
darkroom to process the print.

Sometimes prints are ready for publication within an 
hour for the State News, and it may turn up later in the 
Wolverine, for many of the photographers work for more 
than one publication.

Eric Lundberg and Jack Clink, both Wolverine photographers, 
work with studio lights and a view camera to create a picture.

Photo editors Dave Fouser of the Wolverine and Art Clendenin 
of the State News find they have a lot to smile about when their 
work for the year is finished.

292

Photographers Tom Andrews and Chuck Pittsley check a negative 
to be used in the State News which they have just “souped.” 
In the darkroom, photographers find many different types of 
developers to help them get the desired contrast for reproduction 
in their publications.

While the photographers must have their own cameras, 
the rest of the supplies and necessary facilities are fur­
nished to them. A darkroom manager, supervising the 
darkroom, insures that fresh chemicals for development 
are always ready and sees that the photographers always 
have an ample supply of films and flashbulbs.

Short handed this year, the photographers had to work 
extra hard to supply the important pictures seen in the 
special issues of the State News and in the Centennial 
Wolverine.

Mixing fresh chemicals to keep the photographers well supplied 
is among the many jobs of darkroom manager Bob Brandon. 
He also orders equipment when necessary.

State News photographer Chuck Lowe rushes through a print to 
meet the photo deadline. After development, a print must be 
engraved on the Fairchild engraver before being sent to press.

293

Board of 
Publications

General supervision over the five student publications 
is accomplished through the Board of Publications, a 
joint student-faculty-administrative group. The Board, at 
its monthly meetings, receives progress reports on each of 
the publications and offers assistance whenever possible.
An important job for the Board is the appointment of 
students to the top positions on the publications. Appli­
cants are interviewed by each member of the Board and 
appointments are then made.

Permanent members of the Board include A. A. Apple- 
gate, the chairman, head of the Journalism department; 
James Denison, administrative assistant to the president; 
Philip May, comptroller and treasurer; Dean of Students 
Tom King; and the editors of the State News, Spartan and 
Wolverine.

Secretary to the Board is William Mcllrath who is also 

advisor to student publications.

Advisor to student publications, William Mcllrath, labors selflessly 
to help and advise student editors and business managers. This 
year, much of his time went into aiding the Centennial Wolverine.

Standing—Jack Kole, William Mcllrath, Gregg Stecker, Burt 
Gerber. Seated—Philip May, Tom King, A. A. Applegate, James 
Denison.

294

For those students who excel in particular 
areas or in extracurricular activities, honorary 
societies provide the deserved recognition and 
the opportunity for even greater service to 
Michigan State. The types of honoraries, as 
they have come to be known, are broad and 
inclusive. Some are of an all-campus nature, 
such as Mortar Board for senior women; 
others are restricted, such as Sigma Delta Chi 
for male journalists.

Several of the honoraries, like Omicron Nu, 
founded at Michigan State in 1912, have 
spread to other campuses throughout the na­
tion. Others, like Tau Beta Pi, founded else­
where, have been established here as early as 
1892. Finally there are those honoraries, such 
as Excalibur, founded in 1921, which are 
unique to the Spartan campus. All of these 
societies have their own distinctive insignia 
by which their membership can be recognized.

Excalibur

Excalibur members gather at a popular restaurant for their weekly 
Thursday luncheons. Conversation turns to campus activities and 
campus problems, as members seek ways to serve Michigan State.

Excalibur, the top honorary on the Michigan State 
campus, was founded in 1921 to give recognition to those 
senior men who through their service, leadership, char­
acter and scholarship have brought credit to the school.
Membership in Excalibur is limited to thirteen seniors, 
ten of whom are tapped at the Water Carnival in June 
of their junior year, with three more added at the Home­
coming dance fall term.

Excalibur members, easily recognized by their blue 
blazers with the red “X” on the left breast pocket, meet 
once each week to talk over problems concerning the 
campus and the various activities with which they are 
affiliated. These luncheon meetings are usually held at 
restaurants in the campus area.

With Mortar Board, the corresponding senior honorary 
for women, Excalibur meets at least once each term. 
Excalibur members also usher at the marriage lectures 
which the women’s honorary sponsors in the spring.

Excalibur members, in pledging support of Michigan 
State, are constantly aware of their responsibility to the 
school and are ever willing to serve in any manner 
requested.

Blue Key

Every other Sunday afternoon, thirty-five distinguished 

gentlemen gather in Old College Hall. They are the junior 

and senior campus leaders who have been recognized for 

their scholarship, service and character. These men are 

members of the national men’s honorary, Blue Key.

Founding of Blue Key took place in 1924 at the Univer­

sity of Florida. The Michigan State chapter was installed 

three years later.

In its twenty-eighth year at MSC, Blue Key’s many 

activities are of service to the college. Among the most 

popular tasks of the members is the selection of Miss 

Michigan State who represents MSC at the Miss Big Ten 

Contest. Among other important activities of the honorary 

this year were the revision of the Helot, the handbook put 

out by Blue Key and AWS to aid new students, and the 

sponsoring of the International Festival in cooperation 

with the international committee.

The annual Blue Key tapping of new members takes 

place in December at the Coronation Ball. Members are 

chosen on the basis of scholarship, participation and 

leadership in extra-curricular activities. Members pledge 

loyalty to their school, to cooperate with the faculty and 

to stimulate school spirit.

Twenty-two junior and senior men were tapped into Blue Key, 
national men’s honorary, by President Dan Webster, during inter­
mission activities at the Coronation Ball.

298

Through character, scholarship, leadership and service, 

thirty-five women of the sophomore honorary seek to 

further aims of womanhood and serve the college.

When Tower Guard was started as a local organization 

in 1936, there was some difficulty in getting permission 

to use the name of the tower. Until the name was approved 

the pin was the letter “Q” with a question mark. The first 

“Q” girls are still remembered by the inclusion of the 

letter “Q” in the President’s pin. Tower Guard has the 

unique distinction of being the only group allowed to use 

Beaumont Tower as a place for its meetings.

Nearly all the activities of Tower Guard are based on 

its motto of service. Four standing committees are main­

tained to carry on this work. They are registration, tutor­

ing, reading to and recording for MSC’s blind students. 

During registration week each term Tower Guard members 

are available to answer questions and help students with 

such problems as figuring out schedules and avoiding 

conflicts. Tutoring is given free and lists are posted with 

the names of the qualified coeds in various subjects.

Their big social event of the year is co-sponsoring the

Leadership, scholarship and service are the three quali­
fications of the thirty-five men tapped each spring by the 
members of Green Helmet. Tapping usually takes place 
at an activity of the sophomore class. In the spring of 
1954, new members were announced at the Frosh-Soph 
dance. The initiates are easily recognized wearing the 
green and white colors of the organization a week before 
their formal initiation.

The chapter, established in 1938, is one of the few 
sophomore men’s honoraries found on college campuses. 
The honorary exists solely as a service organization and is 
well known for the help its members give at registration. 
Green Helmet became inactive during the war years, but 
reorganized when the male population returned to MSC.
The familiar green lists posted in all living units by the 
honorary are names of the men in Green Helmet who will 
tutor students in Basic College subjects. If members can­
not give immediate help, they will locate someone who 
can. Co-operating with the women of Tower Guard, some 
seventy students are always available to tutor in subjects 
ranging from Natural Science to Engineering Drawing. 
Because of the success of this project, the Counseling 
Center of the Basic College will recommend Green Helmet’s 
tutoring service to students who need extra help in their 
studies. The members are proud that they can offer this 
help to better studying and hope to expand the service 
whenever possible.

A Green Helmet member congratulates Robert Richardson, newly 
tapped initiate, following the ceremonies during the intermission 
of the Frosh-Soph Dance spring term.

Alpha Epsilon Rho

“Spartan Playhouse” appears every Tuesday night on 
WKAR as Alpha Epsilon Rho members work and gain 
experience in their field of interest. Acting for the dramatic 
show is open to all students and tryouts are held each 
week, although the management and sponsoring is done 
by members of the honorary.

Highlighting the honorary’s monthly meetings was its 
work on a kinescope. The thirty minute film, to be sent 
to other schools, deals with the problems of producing 
television programs. The group feels that this information 
will be of value to other student TV producers.

The Delta chapter of the national radio and TV honor­
ary, which was established at MSC in 1943, pays tribute 
to students who have done outstanding work in the com­
munication field. Active members must have a 3. in radio 
and TV courses and prospective members become eligible 
by accumulating points for work on aired radio or television 
shows. Access to the college communication facilities gives 
members advantages and experience which will be of value 
to them in their vocation.

▼ Green Splash 

Alpha Delta Sigma a

Spartans seeing a coed walking around campus carrying 
a milk bottle with a goldfish in it, shouldn’t be alarmed. 
She may just be one of the Green Splash pledges.

Green Splash, the women’s swimming honorary, was 
organized in 1920 as a women’s lifesaving group. Five 
years later it became the swimming honorary and was 
named Green Splash due to the green pool and the painted 
green splashes that surrounded it.

Highlight of the Green Splash activities is its annual 
water show, which features synchronized swimming and 
diving by the members.

Alpha Delta Sigma abbreviated spells ads. It is the 
national advertising fraternity with an aim to bridge the 
gap between administrative theory and actual practice.
Activities of the honorary include planning advertising 
campaigns for such campus programs as Porpoise show 
and the Coronation Ball. The chapter, a branch of the 
American Federation of Advertisers, is known as the Don 
Francisco Chapter for an MSC horticulture graduate who 
made famous the “Sun Kissed Orange” and is now an 
executive in the AFA.

for the campus engineering societies. One of the social 
activities of ASAE is a student-faculty picnic spring term.
Bi-monthly meetings are held to give its members a 
chance to get acquainted with fellow agricultural engineers. 
Speakers and movies from the industrial and educational 
fields present to the members the opportunities in agricul­
tural engineering.

Any engineering student is welcomed by MSC’s student 
branch of the professional engineering honorary. This 
year marks the 75th anniversary of the senior or parent 
organization for mechanical engineers.

The student branches set up at universities and colleges 
to further acquaint students with the engineering profes­
sion. Technical speakers talk to members at the monthly 
meetings and field trips are scheduled each term. Members 
visited the Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company in Jack-

“Step this way to be fingerprinted” is a familiar phrase 
to freshmen registering for their first term at MSC. Alpha 
Phi Sigma is the organization responsible for the finger­
printing process which is done in cooperation with the 

Campus Police.

One of two chapters in existence, the MSC Beta Chapter 
of Alpha Phi Sigma is an honorary for students in police 

administration.

Meetings are held every two weeks and the honorary 
makes it a policy to have, as speakers, experts in police 
administration. Two well-known guests this year were 
Dr. Brennan, a retired member of the New York police 
department, and Mr. Germann of the Los Angeles police 
department. These speakers gave the members an oppor­
tunity to receive advice from experienced men and make 
contacts for future employment.

An annual term party banquet climaxes the activities 
of Alpha Phi Sigma for the year. At one of its meetings 
the group had an opportunity to see a film on the Jackson 
prison riot, which was followed by a discussion of the 
responsibilities of prison officials and prison reform.

Alpha Phi Sigma officers, Dianne Prister, Ted Verneir and Hal 
Paul, outline the honorary’s activities for the forthcoming term.

The Michigan State chapter of the American Institute 

of Chemical Engineers is affiliated with the national organi­

zation for chemical engineers which was founded in 1908. 

The local chapter of this organization appeared on campus 

just thirty years later, in 1938. AIChE now has 86 

chapters in colleges and universities throughout the country.

Membership in the honorary is open to all those inter­

ested in chemical engineering. The organization’s purpose 

is to acquaint members with the ethics of this profession 

and to prepare them for membership in the parent organi­

zation of chemical engineers.

AIChE members from the MSC chapter attend the 

regional conferences held by the national honorary. A 

conference was held at Wayne University fall term which 

included workshops and speeches by chemical engineers. 

Plant inspection trips, motion pictures of technical interest 

and speakers supplement the class work of the members.

The American Institute of Chemical Engineers partici­

pated in the Engineering Exposition and was presented a 

prize for the best student entry. AIChE gives an annual 

award to its junior who has been most outstanding in his 

Basic College work.

scholastic average and high character are the requirements 
for membership in the organization which honors out­
standing juniors and seniors in the field of electrical 
engineering.

Sponsoring a display in the Engineering Exposition is 
the main activity of the organization. Much time is spent 
making this display successful because it represents to the 
public the progress the group has made in engineering.

Three centennials are associated with the founding of 
the MSC chapter of Beta Beta Beta. The national honorary 
was founded one hundred years ago, the MSC chapter is 
its one hundredth chapter and it came on campus in 
Michigan State’s centennial year.

Alpha Phi Omega

Alpha Phi Omega is a national service honorary whose 

members are former boy scouts who want to continue their 

service activities while in college.

In conjunction with the Campus Chest drive, Alpha Phi 

Omega sponsors the UMOC Contest. During the two weeks 

of winter term that the contest is held, members of Alpha 

Phi Omega are busy advertising by posters and publicity 

stunts. The group counts the money in the cannisters to 

keep the contestants and the living unit sponsors informed 

on their progress. At the King’s Coronation Dance which 

climaxes the charity contest, the honorary presents a trophy 

to the UMOC winner and the living unit which sponsored 

him.

In addition to raising money for the Campus Chest, 

Alpha Phi Omega performs many services for MSC. It 

sponsors an annual blood drive fall term and throughout 

the year, members visit patients in the Health Center. 

APO is responsible for the humorous signs on the paths 

across the grass which read SOG, Save Our Grass.

Spartans register in advance for the APO Blood Drive fall term. 
The drive, which was co-sponsored by the Spartan Women s

Kappa Alpha Mu

314

Ten years ago in Columbia, Missouri, a new idea in 

college photography was brought to life by Cliff Edom, a 

journalism professor at the University of Missouri. Mr. 

Edom founded Kappa Alpha Mu a photo-journalism 

honorary for college students. The idea grew and went to 

other colleges, until today, there are seventeen chapters 

scattered throughout the country. Having recently affiliated 

itself with the National Press Photographers’ Association, 

it is more than a dream come true for Edom, with its 

original “key” made with a KAM seal etched on a piece 

of engraver’s zinc.

Nu chapter of KAM was established at MSC in 1947 

through the interest of the publications photographers. 

It was that year that KAM originated the Homecoming 

Queen Contest which it has been sponsoring annually with 

the cooperation of the senior class. Other KAM activities 

include Activities Carnival, shooting couple pictures at the 

J-Hop, and print exhibits in the Union Concourse.

Still a growing organization, KAM will hold its 10th 

anniversary national convention at Kellogg Center with 

Nu chapter serving as host. The convention will also host 

the Michigan Press Photographers’ Short Course which is 

sponsored by Nu chapter, the MSC journalism department, 

the Detroit Press Photographers’ Association, the Michigan 

Press Association and the Michigan chapter of the NPPA.

Kappa Alpha Mu members select the pictures to be entered in 
the national KAM photo contest. The winning prints were dis­
played at the national KAM convention in MSC’s Kellogg Center.

The MSC Gamma Mu Chapter of Alpha Kappa Psi, 
professional business fraternity, was installed on campus 
December 7, 1952, and for two years its meetings were 
held in the Union. The first step in acquiring a chapter 
house was taken in July, 1954, when the fraternity rented 
a six-room apartment. Eight of the members and a faculty 
adviser from the Business Department live there. Parents 
of the members helped the group completely furnish and 
redecorate the apartment.

Alpha Kappa Psi provides all of the advantages of 
fraternal affiliation, yet offers the unusual benefits which 
add personal growth for a membership comprised exclu­
sively of men interested in business administration. In 
order to broaden the knowledge of the members and 
supplement their regular classwork, the fraternity carries 
on a regular professional program which includes talks by 
leading educators, businessmen and representatives of large 
organizations.

The fraternity is quite active as it participates in intra­
mural activities, the Activities Carnival and Spartacade, in 
which they won third place in audience participation. Also, 
the Alpha Kappa Psi Scholarship Key is awarded annually 
to the highest ranking male senior majoring in Business 
and Public Service.

The major activity of Alpha Kappa Psi during the 
Centennial year will be an East-Central District Confer­
ence at which the Gamma Mu Chapter will be host.

Alpha Kappa Psi members gather around Henry Schankule as he 
makes a painting of the fraternity crest to be hung in the chapter 
room. The professional fraternity has its own apartment.

Phi Epsilon Kappa  Phi Mu Alpha

“To elevate the standards, ideas, and ethics of those 

engaged in teaching health, physical education and recrea­

tion” is the aim of the men of Phi Epsilon Kappa. The 
most important qualification for membership is an interest 

in physical education. The Alpha Mu chapter, which was 
founded on campus in 1950, includes physical education 

students, athletes and faculty members.

This year the fraternity was especially proud to have 
one of its members, Herbert Olson, receive a $1,000 
research fellowship award which was presented to him at 

the February meeting.

A spring concert of contemporary American music 

highlights the schedule of activities for Phi Mu Alpha, 

national men’s music honorary. The group presents many 
musical programs throughout the year, but the most 

satisfying was a concert presented for patients of the 
Ingham County Tuberculosis Hospital. A television pro­

gram is being planned by the members who are required 

to have an all-college 2.6.

The activities of Phi Mu Alpha give students with an 

interest in music an opportunity to participate in musical 
programs and to further music appreciation on campus.

Pi Kappa Delta, founded at MSC in 1921, is the largest 
forensics honorary in the country, with a membership of 

174 chapters. 
It is not required that members in the 
honorary be speech majors, but they must maintain an 

active interest in this field.

The honorary has chosen a motto most appropriate for 

a forensics organization. “The art of persuasion, beautiful 

and just.” This “art of persuasion” is developed through 
work in debates and discussions. Those students receiving 

a stated number of decisions in any of these speech areas 

are eligible for membership.

T Pi Kappa Delta

A  Pi Mu Epsilon

Pi Mu Epsilon, the national mathematics honorary, was 

established on campus in 1914. Requirements for mem­
bership in the honorary are a 2.6 all-college and a 3. in 
mathematics. At the bi-monthly meetings members have 
an opportunity to meet and discuss complex math problems 
and hear guest speakers on many varied and related math 
subjects.

In February, the honorary staged a banquet for its 

members and the faculty of the math department. The 
organization brings its activities to a close with a picnic

Aqua Maniacs, a floating circus, was the theme of the 

annual Porpoise water show. Clowning and trapeze stunts 

were combined with precision swimming and diving by 

members of the national honorary.

A Porpoise queen and her court were chosen by the 

members to reign over the water show. The proceeds from 

this show are used to sponsor Porpoise activities during 

the year.

The members maintain a busy schedule of activities. 

They assist in conducting Red Cross water safety pro­

grams and officiate at intramural swimming meets winter 

term. Members always enjoy helping Green Splash, the 

coed swimming honorary, stage its annual water show.

Membership in the national honorary is extended to 

men students who have performed the necessary swim­

ming qualifications and have shown interest in the organi­

zation.

Spring term, Porpoise awards the Hubert E. Gluski 

Outstanding Swimmer Award to the exceptional varsity 

swimmer on the Michigan State swimming team. High­

light of the group’s social calendar is the annual picnic, 

“Swimmer’s Bust,” for actives, pledges and guests.

Jn preparation for their annual water show, Porpoise fraternity 
members spend hours practicing in the pool for their demonstra­
tions. Beside the special numbers, swimmers have speed and 
endurance contests. Some comic numbers were also included.

Xi Sigma Pi

Xi Sigma Pi has the distinction of being one of the 

oldest honoraries on campus. The national forestry 

honorary was founded at the University of Washington 

in 1915, and just one year later the Beta chapter was 

initiated at Michigan State. The honorary now boasts 

fifteen active chapters throughout the country.

The members strive to promote interest in the field of 

forestry and may be recognized by the key pin which they

wear.

In 1953, Sigma Pi Eta was established as a national 

organization and the following year, the first national 

convention of the professional hotel honorary was held 

at MSC. Juniors and seniors majoring in hotel adminis­

tration with a 2.5 are potential members.

Field trips to Michigan hotels and restaurants have a 

two-fold aim. They give the hotel students an opportunity 

to observe on the spot management and promote good 

relations between the school and the business.

Sigma Lambda Chi

Promotion of the lumber and building industries was 
the aim of the Alpha chapter of Sigma Lambda Chi when 
it was established at MSC in 1949. The honorary for 
lumber merchandising and residential building majors 
selects its members from the upper portion of the junior 
and senior classes and underclassmen who have a 2.8 
all-college.

The group’s most outstanding event is the annual spring 
banquet attended by members and alumni. Experts and 
prominent members of the lumber and building industries 
address the group and present awards and scholarships to 
leading students in this field.

The honorary also sponsors, for the students in these 
two majors, a sizeable student loan fund, available through 
contributions by lumber industries.

Ta n Beta Pi

Fifty engineering men are honored by membership in 
Tau Beta Pi, the national engineering honorary, which 
means recognition of distinguished scholarship and exemp­
lary character as undergraduates. Members are elected 
from the upper eighth of the junior or the upper fifth of 
the senior engineering classes.

Olds Hall is the scene of the Engineering Exposition at 
which Tau Beta Pi members serve as guides. The group 
also compiles and publishes data on scholarships and 
fellowships offered at MSC and at over 100 other engi­
neering schools throughout the country.

The Alpha chapter was founded at MSC in 1892 and 
is the second oldest chapter in the U. S. This year, 
the organization was host to the national Tau Beta Pi 
convention in Kellogg Center.

Beta Gamma Sigma, the national honorary for com­
merce and business administration students, 
is still a 
youngster among campus honor organizations. Last June, 
the Gamma chapter of Beta Gamma Sigma was established 
at MSC, the third chapter to be organized in Michigan.
The honorary was founded in 1907 at the University of 
Wisconsin and is operated on a basis similar to Phi Beta 
Kappa. Membership is a recognition of high scholarship 
in the commerce and business administration departments. 
Shortly before graduation in the spring, student and 
faculty members nominate ten percent of the graduation 
class and four percent of the junior class for Beta Gamma 
Sigma.

The meaning of the “key”, the honorary’s symbol, is 
revealed at formal initiation and lifetime memberships are 
bestowed on the initiates.

Beta Gamma Sigma members Bruce Futhey, Sally Garvin and 
Bert Weesner help Jack Walsh and Barbara Webster check the 
names of juniors and seniors being considered for membership in 
the new business administration honorary.

T Pi Alpha Mu

Ta u Sigma a

Pi Alpha Mu, the professional business and advertising 
honorary, is open to anyone interested in the advertising 
field. Related interests are grouped together and students 
have an opportunity to gain a greater understanding of 
the professional field by the contacts they make with the 
speakers at the bi-monthly meetings.

Advertising for many campus events is under the super­
vision of Pi Alpha Mu. This year, advertising for campus 
chest, career carnival and green splash programs was done 
by the honorary. Spring term, the main project was the 
advertising for Spartacade.

In 1923, Ralph Huston founded Tau Sigma, the Business 
and Public Service—Science and Arts honorary. Mr. Hus­
ton felt there was a need at that time for an organization 
that stressed scholarship in colleges and universities. Fol­
lowing the creed set down by the early organization, the 
main purpose of Tau Sigma is to promote intellectual 
activity at MSC.

Juniors and seniors majoring in Business and Public 
Service or Science and Arts who have a 3.4 all-college are 
eligible for membership in the honorary.

A mold A ir Society

Founded at the University of Cincinnati in 1947, the 
Arnold Air Society now has 185 squadrons throughout 
the country. Michigan State’s Phillip L. Bik Squadron 
was installed in 1950.

A warrior who cultivates his mind polishes his aims, 
is an appropriate motto for these advanced air force 
cadets who maintain a 2.2 all-college and 2.5 average 
in military science. The local squadron co-sponsors the 
annual Coronation Ball in December. Previous to the 
dance, the members elect eight coeds as sponsors of each 
AFRO group, plus one honorary colonel. They are pre­
sented with their official capes during the intermission.

Scabbard and Blade

Scabbard and Blade, founded in 1914, is the oldest 
military organization on campus. New members are 
elected and pledged fall and winter terms from candidates 
who have a 3.0 in ROTC and a 2.5 all college average.
In order to provide some orientation for those men 
attending summer camp, Scabbard and Blade members 
hold a one-half day demonstration of military tactics each 
spring term.

The bi-annual national convention, to be held in 1956, 
in Wisconsin, will mark the 50th anniversary of this 
organization, which holds that military service is an obli­
gation of citizenship.

The Club now stages its biggest social event, the all-college 

Varsity Ball, in the Kellogg Center, fall term.

Emphasizing Michigan State spirit, the Varsity Club 

sponsors the selling of the “Beat Michigan” buttons, 

sported by State fans at the U. of M. football games.

Varsity Club members strive to promote cooperation 

among athletes, the athletic department and the student 

body. They also promote a high standard of athletic 

achievement and create fellowship among athletes.

Outstanding members are honored by the Brewer trophy 

and the Varsity Club scholarship, each of which recognize 

excellence in particular fields. Lifetime passes to varsity 

games are awarded to all members. Eligible for member­

At the suggestion of faculty members in the Basic 
College, Phi Eta Sigma, national honorary for outstanding 
men in the freshman class, established a chapter at 
Michigan State in 1954. PES members came from Miami 
University to conduct formal initiation for State’s 99 
charter members. Because the organization was new, both 
freshman and sophomores were initiated, but membership 
is now open only to freshmen who have an all-college 
average of at least 3.5.

Although Phi Eta Sigma is a young honorary, it is very 
active on campus. Three of its members traveled to 
Oklahoma A & M for the national PES convention held 
early last September, with all expenses being paid by the 
local chapter. An idea discussed at one of the convention 
workshops resulted in the “How to Study” pamphlets which 
are now given to entering freshmen during registration.
During the summer PES members write “big brother” 
letters to the men who will begin college at Michigan State 
in the fall. These letters help to acquaint the new students 
with campus life and the important part that studying plays 
in their college activities.

The main objective of the Junior American Veterinary 
Medical Association is to encourage study in veterinary 
medicine. Many awards are presented to the students who 
have completed outstanding work during the year. High 
scholarship is not overlooked, as is evidenced by the $300 
award presented to the student with the highest scholastic 
standing for the year.

All veterinary medicine students are eligible to join this 
organization. The meetings usually feature a guest speaker 
in veterinary medicine.

Speakers at the meetings of Jr. A.V.M.A. give members 
an opportunity to keep up with the latest developments 
in their field outside of the classroom.

The association was organized at Michigan State in the 
early 1930’s and has been a student affiliate of the national 
A.V.M.A. since that time. It is through organizations, 
such as the Jr. A.V.M.A., that Michigan State graduates 
are able to go into their chosen fields with a working 
knowledge of their subjects and the confidence of a sound 
education.

A Sno-Caps

Provost Corps ▼

Sno-Caps, the local honorary for nursing majors, was 
founded four years ago when the nursing course was first 
established at MSC. Not only does the name stand for 
the coeds’ white cap, but each letter in “CAPS” is the 
abbreviation of their motto and aim. Spelled out, Sno-Caps 
becomes Spartan Nurses Organization-Cooperative Atti­
tudes, Practical Service.

Giving aid to others is the basis of nearly all Sno-Cap 
activities. One of the group’s projects fall term, which 
was enjoyed by both the recipients and the members 
themselves, was the Christmas carol party given at the 
Bogue Nursing Home in East Lansing.

In 1948, the Provost Corps, national military police 
honorary, was founded at Michigan State. Headquarters 
of this organization is now located at the University of 
Wisconsin and additional chapters are being established 
at other colleges.

The purpose of the Provost Corps is to increase the 
knowledge of its cadets in military police work and prepare 
them for careers as army officers. Juniors and seniors

An important part of a student’s educa­
tional experience is his participation in extra­
curricular organizations which are of interest 
to him. The variety of these groups open to 
the student includes those which deal with an 
academic subject, a geographic area or a hob­
by interest. Most of the organizations hold 
business meetings featuring guests who are 
prominent in their respective fields.

The first organizations at Michigan State 
were concerned with agricultural activities. 
The Horticulture Club, the Forestry Club and 
the Farmers’ Club competed for the attention 
of 1915 MAC students; as the school ex­
panded and widened its scope of instruction, 
more and more organizations appeared. In 
1955, Spartans belong to groups as diversified 
as the Pre-Law Club, Winged Spartans and 
the Indian Students Association.

The American Foundrymen’s Society was organized to 
promote interest, research and technical developments in 
the foundry industry. Its members are interested in foundry 
work and are usually majoring in fields related to that 
industry.

Field trips to modern foundries, and speakers from many 
Michigan factories are 
in the organization’s 
included 
schedule of activities. One of the highlights of its program 
is the annual Student-Industry Banquet which gives mem­
bers an opportunity to learn more about this type of work 
and establish future contacts with personnel in the field.

Students in metallurgical engineering have an oppor­
tunity to put aside their textbooks and become acquainted 
with the practical and industrial side of their profession at 
the meetings of the American Society for Metals.

Guest speakers from industries are often invited to the 
club’s meetings to give members some first-hand informa­
tion. Education and industry also came together when the 
club’s officers attended the Metals Exposition held in 
Chicago. A club display for the MSC Engineering Expo­

Home Ec Exec Board

The Home Economics Executive Board is composed of 

members from all of the home ec clubs on campus. The 

Board discusses projects being undertaken by each club 

and offers assistance whenever possible. It conducts a 

general meeting each month attended by members from 

all the home ec clubs on campus.

The Board is sponsoring a program to send home ec 

majors to Michigan high schools to acquaint the students 

with the MSC School of Home Economics. An annual 

picnic is sponsored by the Board for all graduating seniors.

The all-college flower show in Dem Hall is the highlight 

of the Floriculture Forum activities, as the group encour­

ages other students in the art of flower arranging by 

awarding prize and trophies for the best flower displays.

During the winter and spring terms field trips to green­

houses and flower shops in Michigan and out-of-state 

supplement the classroom experiences in the floral busi­

ness. After a busy year of decorating for many campus 

events, the group looks forward to its picnic at Rose Lake.

Block and Bridle Club members played host to student 

Block 

and Bridle

judges from Big 10 schools who attended the North Central 

Livestock Judging Contest which was organized at MSC. 

Ticket committeemen distribute Block and Bridle Show tickets to 
the club members. Selling techniques were successful as a record 
crowd filled the Livestock Pavilion.

Animal husbandry students had an opportunity to practice 

their judging skills in an atmosphere of friendly competition.

The all-college Block and Bridle Horse Show, sponsored 

by the club, drew a full-house at the Livestock Pavilion. 

English and Western riding contests, comedians and drill 

teams drew one of the largest crowds in the history of 

the show.

The Block and Bridle Club is an honorary for students 

in animal husbandry and others who are interested in 

horses and their care. The club strives to create closer 

feelings among animal husbandry students and provide 

contacts for students going into this field.

Students interested in showing livestock have an oppor­

tunity to gain experience in the annual Little International 

Fitting and Showing Contest. The club sponsors judging 

teams, entering horse and 

livestock judging contests 

throughout the Mid-West, to give its members more 

experience in dealing with animals.

Keeping informed on the latest methods and develop­
ments in the landscape field is the main activity of the 
Landscape Architecture and Urban Planning Club. Speakers 
on the many phases of this field contribute to a number 
of the club’s meetings.

A visit to the new Northland Center in Detroit proved 
exceptionally interesting and valuable to club members. 
There they had a chance to see the latest practical use 
of landscape planning on a large scale, which is invaluable 
information for the class projects.

Spring term is the busiest time of the year for the Indian 
Students Association, for it is then that plans are being 
made for the International Festival. The organization 
prepares a booth for the festival exhibiting many articles 
that have been made in India.

The Light Festival and the celebration of India’s 
Republic Day are the most important activities of the 
Indian Students Association. American students are invited 
to all the activities of the Association in hopes that they

Food Distribution Club

MSC is claiming as another “first” to its credit, the food 
distribution curriculum, the only one of its kind in the 
country. The students in this course work closely with 
large grocery concerns whose aim is to link academic work 
with practical store experience. These students, and others 
interested in the program, have recently organized the 
Food Distribution Club.

Through its monthly meetings, the Food Distribution 
Club offers further opportunities for its members to discuss 
problems of food store chain operation and management 
with recognized leaders of the food industry.

the forestry department. The club, open to all forestry 
majors, provides a common meeting ground for students 
interested in forestry in addition to programs of educational 
value.

One of the club’s biggest events is its annual “Foresters’ 
* Shindig,” an all-college dance. For the first time last year, 
the Forestry Club was invited to participate in the Foresters’ 
Big Ten Field Day. The club closes its year’s activities

Les Gourmets

Les Gourmets members had an opportunity to use their 

restaurant techniques when they served for the luncheon 

at the General Motors plant in Flint during G.M.’s Fifty 

Million Celebration. This activity typifies the attempt of 

the organization to combine practical and social learning 

in its yearly program.

An organization for restaurant management majors, the 

group was founded in September 1951 when the restau­

rant program was first introduced at Michigan State. Its 

purpose is to acquaint the students of the department with 

the restaurant business.

Monthly meetings of Les Gourmets attempt to supple­

ment classroom education. Members are able to combine 

business with pleasure when they attend the annual 

restaurant convention in Chicago.

Drganization is the key word when Les Gourmets^ members serve 
it banquets and luncheons. The systematic techniques learned m 
•estaurant management courses are used and even improved upon 
is members become acquainted with the restaurant business.

A Agronomy Club

Agronomy is the science of crops and soils. The 
Agronomy Club’s purpose is to bring together students, 
interested in agronomy and related fields.

The members have a busy schedule of activities, but 
this year they concentrated their efforts in studying changes 
in the food products field. The bi-weekly meetings of the 
club include lectures and movies related to agriculture 
and discussions with the faculty.

The activities of the group aren’t all of a serious nature, 
but include many trips, contests and social events. Club 
members round out the year with an annual banquet.

PEM Club -*■

Founded at MSC in 1949 to promote better recreation 
through folk and square dancing, the Promenaders put on 
frequent demonstrations, not only on campus, but through­
out Michigan.

Highlights of the club’s activities are trips to the Folk 
Festival at Flint and to Chicago where the dancers stage 
demonstrations. Membership in the club is open to all 
students who are interested in and have a basic under­
standing of elementary folk dancing. The club brings its 
year to a close with a picnic spring term.

When spring term finally arrives at MSC thoughts turn 
to baseball. To the PEM Club members, baseball means 
their annual softball game with the faculty and picnic at 

Old College Field.

Another activity of the club is the alumnae versus 
members in a field hockey game during the MSC Home­

coming weekend.

PEM Club, composed of both physical education majors 
and minors, was formed so that these girls might share 
their ideas and experiences on teaching phys. ed.

Pre-Vet Club

From a small beginning, of thirty-three members, in the 
fall of 1953, the MSC Pre-Vet Club has grown to a total 
membership of over one hundred.

The club was established for all pre-vet students during 
their Basic College enrollment. The club acquaints its 
members with other students in this field and with the 
facilities and staff of the Veterinary School.

A common bond between the widely scattered students 
is being fostered by the club through a program of movies, 
veterinary projects and tours through the clinic.

Ag Econ Club A

When fall term arrives the Officers Club has the pleasant 

task of choosing honorary corp sponsors for the Army 

ROTC to be presented at the Coronation Ball in Decem­

ber. The all-college dance is co-sponsored by the Officers 

Club in conjunction with the Arnold Air Society.

The profits from this dance are used by the club to give 

senior members a dinner dance in Kellogg Center. This 

party is given in honor of the graduating senior men who 

have received their commissions as Second Lieutenants. 

Membership in the Officers Club is open to all advanced 

Army ROTC men.

A field trip to Washington, D. C., highlighted the 
activities of the Agricultural Economics Club spring term. 
Concentrating the trip around the U. S. Department of 
Agriculture, the club members had a chance to see first­
hand what they have been studying in their agriculture 
classes.

The club, one of twenty-two throughout the United 
States, is not limited to Ag Econ majors. Its objectives are 
to supplement classroom work with field trips and pro­
fessional speakers, and provide social activities for its 
members. Discussions at the informal meetings center 
around future job opportunities.

▼ Social Work Club

The Social Work Club was organized in the early 1940’s 
to give social work majors an opportunity to meet with 
practicing social workers and to provide them with a 
working knowledge of the many phases in this field.

Monthly meetings include speakers, representing many 
areas of social work, who acquaint the members with the 
nature of their work, its problems and requirements.

Close cooperation with the police department, Lansing 
social agencies and the Michigan School for the Blind 
enables the future social workers to gain practical experi­
ence and to serve the community.

A Winged Spartans

Arab Club T

Students wishing to learn to fly have an opportunity to 
do so by joining the Winged Spartans. Equipped with their 
own planes, the club members offer instruction in flying 
at a low cost. In addition to accumulating flying hours, 
members also have an opportunity to study ground rules 
and charts.

In May, a group of Winged Spartans made plans to 
participate in the National Inter-collegiate Flying Meet at 
Houston, Texas. This meet is open to all colleges who 
wish to send representatives. Members also participated 
in the Air Fair spring term.

The purpose of the Arab Club is twofold: it provides 
an opportunity for Arab students to acquire a working 
knowledge of the different countries of the Arab world, 
and it encourages a better understanding of the American 
people and their way of life.

At their bi-monthly meetings, speeches are often made 
by Arab or American students that serve the purposes of 
the club. At many of their social activities Middle East 
food is prepared and served. Frequently the Club’s activi­
ties are done in conjunction with Americans of Arabic 
origin in the Lansing, Ann Arbor and Detroit areas.

club members talk over education proce­

Elementary Education Club

Sometimes it seems as though all MSC coeds are major­
ing in elementary education, commonly titled el ed, but 
still there always seems to be a lack of teachers, which 
causes educators to do everything they can to induce 
college women to enter this field.

The Elementary Education Club takes over at this point, 
helping the new el ed freshman become acquainted with 
her future profession. All students in this major are 
invited to attend the club’s weekly meetings in Old Col­
lege Hall. Over a cup of coffee the student finds it easy 
to become acquainted with fellow students and faculty 
members.

These informal meetings feature guest speakers who 
explain new trends in education and techniques of teach­
ing. Coeds who are student teaching often delight the 
underclassmen with amusing incidents which they encoun­
tered and give them ideas of what to expect during their 
first days as head of the class.

Young

a Republicans

Supporting local and state Democratic candidates kept 
members of the Young Democrats Club busy fall term. 
The group assisted in campaign activities by distributing 
literature and staging caravans in the East Lansing area.
Students interested in the principles of the Democratic 
Party formed the organization on campus in 1951. The 
bi-monthly meetings are addressed by political speakers 
and faculty members from the economics and political 
science departments.

Members attended the State Democratic Day at the 
University of Michigan sponsored for the college Demo­
crat clubs throughout Michigan.

A national election year 1954, was an active one for 
the Young Republicans Club. The members worked on 
block to block canvassing and invited candidates to speak 
at their meetings.

Homer Ferguson, candidate for re-election as U. S. 
Senator, visited the campus as a guest of the club, and 
also attended a football game.

In the spring, the group sent a delegation to the Mid- 
West Young Republicans Convention at Ohio State and 
to the annual Republican Party Day at U. of M. From 
movies, speakers and discussions at the bi-weekly meet­
ings, the members gained a more complete knowledge of 
the aims and ideals of the Republican Party.

T Pre-Med

International  A

Now in its third year at MSC, the Pre-Medical Club 
is an active organization of approximately fifty members. 
Students interested in medicine as a career meet every 
other week to discuss medical matters of interest to the 
group, listen to speakers in the profession, and watch films 
on new developments in medicine.

Visits to Michigan hospitals this year gave members a 
closer look at actual medical practice. The club helps its 
members choose a medical school for their professional 
studies.

MSC can seem like an awfully lonely place when a 
student first arrives from another country, but he soon 
finds himself right at home in the International House. 
He especially looks forward to the weekly International 
Club meetings which include story night, folk dances, 
foreign speakers and movies from other countries. Mem­
bers are best able to get acquainted with new students 
over coffee during the social hour of the meeting.

The campus always looks forward to seeing the members 
entertain at the International Festival and the Union Board 
talent show.

Ski

Club

The MSC Ski team won the 1955 Intercollegiate Championship races 
and placed third in the Central U. S. Intercollegiate Championship 
races. The team of Bernie Bovee, Karl Snilsberg, Bill Boutell, Jerry

Iverson, Andy Foller was the first from lower Michigan to ever enter 
the U. S. Championships. Club members plan to make this event 
an annual competition for Michigan State skiers.

350

Skill and endurance are required of skiers on a slalom slope. The 
MSC team placed first in this championship race.

Beginning skiers take their first turn on the slopes under the watchful 
eyes of the advanced members of the Ski Club.

The MSC Ski Club was> officially founded in 1946. 
Previous to that time, there were organizations of skiers 
which dated back to 1930, and in 1942 a team from MSC 
won its first intercollegiate race at Caberfae.

In 1952, the Ski Club helped to organize the Michigan 
Intercollegiate Ski Association and won the first race in 
that same year. The MISA has grown from an organization 
of four schools to its present membership of seven colleges 
and universities. The club rejoined the Central United 
States Ski Association in 1954 and entered a team in 
competition with schools in Wisconsin, Minnesota and the 
Upper Peninsula.

The Ski Club was organized to promote an interest in 

skiing at MSC and make available to students information 
regarding weather, equipment and ski areas. The club has 
a movie program designed to give students an idea of 
skiing in other states and to give beginners visual ski 
instruction.

Inter-club races are staged between the members and 
awards are presented at the Skiers’ Banquet. A training 

course for beginning skiers is conducted before the ski 
weekends as the club attempts to interest more students 
in skiing and teach them the correct techniques to make 
skiing a safer and more enjoyable winter sport.

A Food Technology 

Club

WAA

The Food Technology Club was founded for the purpose 
of promoting professional interest and common fellowship 
among students majoring in food technology and related 
fields. The local club was organized in 1947 as a student 
chapter of the national Food Technology Organization.
The club’s major activity includes field trips to Michigan 
canning factories and processing plants. Movies, discus­
sions and speakers are the program for the club’s monthly 
meetings.

The Women’s Gym is the scene of much activity during 
the evenings of fall and winter term, as coeds compete in 
volleyball, basketball and swimming. These and other 
intramural contests are sponsored by the WAA, whose aim 
is to promote sportsmanship among the coeds of MSC.
WAA also sponsors a basketball play-day, between 
coed teams from other colleges throughout Michigan. The 
girls have a chance to become better acquainted over 
refreshments following the contests.

Jazz Society ▲

Early in 1954, students interested in traditional jazz 
originated the MSC Jazz Club which, in October of the 
same year, was formally organized as the Jazz Society of 
West Circle Drive.

Enjoyment of jazz through records and jam sessions is 
the major activity of the club. Aided by discussions and 
speakers, the members attempt to develop a meaningful 
understanding of this phase of music.

Everyone knows that Tuesday spring term is parade day, providing 
it doesn’t rain, and come 4:00 students begin heading for Old 
College Field. Army and Air Force cadets pass before the reviewing

officers and spectators. The unit executing the most outstanding 
performance is excused from parade the following week. Cadre 
personnel and coed corps sponsors review the troops weekly.

A cadet sergeant reminds a Spartan Guardsman that he needs a 
better crease in his trousers before he can pass inspection. Members 
of the Guard must be perfectly groomed before each performance.

A color guard passes in review for officials and spectators during the 
Armed Forces Day parade. All Michigan State ROTC units marched 
down Grand River Avenue in this tribute to the armed forces.

The honorary company for all ROTC functions is recog­
nized by white spats and gloves, green and white shoulder 
cords and special lapel pins. Spartan Guard serves as both 
a precision drill team and a color guard. Leadership and 
cooperation are stressed by its Army and Air Force cadet 
members who are freshmen and sophomores with above 
average military scholarship. Through the efforts of its 
sponsor, Captain John McNolan, Spartan Guard has under­
gone many improvements this year.

In addition to the customary drill periods, business 
meetings are held each week at which a constitution was 
written and a special service ribbon designed. The ribbon 
is awarded to Spartan Guard cadets who have served three 
terms in the unit. Cadets serving six terms are honored 
by a metal “S” to be worn on the ribbon.

The members have an opportunity to display their 
excellent precision drilling during the intermission of the 
Coronation Ball.

The Michigan State Veterans’ Association was founded 
in the fall of 1953. Many of its original members were 
veterans of World War II but presently its membership 
is composed largely of veterans of the Korean conflict.
The association has a two fold purpose, service to the 
school and service to the veteran. The motto toward service 
to MSC is, “If someone else has tried and failed, give it to 
us.” The veterans showed themselves worthy of this motto 
when they conducted one of the most successful blood 
drives on campus.

Service to the veteran is achieved through both social 
and business projects. The organization does everything 
it can to assure prompt delivery of the veteran’s subsistence 
check each month.

Veterans often face difficulty in adjusting to studying 
habits. Members give scholastic assistance whenever pos­
sible and if necessary, encourage the veterans to seek other 
help. Securing adequate housing and assistance in regis­
tration are also offered to veterans. Picnics, parties and 
athletic competition are among the social events sponsored 
by the association.

Vet Club members Herbert Weissblum, Bill Bryant, Gordon Guilbert 
and Mary McRobbie distribute membership tickets to interested 
veterans. Club is open to all former service people.

Jack Elliott, Maurice Crane, Fremont Shull and Benjamin Hickok 
discuss faculty-staff donations in the winter term blood drive

Students at Michigan State have always 
participated in religious activities, even in the 
bustle of other interests. Among the first stu­
dent groups on the campus were the YMCA, 
which was established in 1883, and the YWCA, 
which was organized in 1896. From this early 
beginning, religious organizations have ex­
panded to include almost every denomination 
which is represented in the student body.

Religious groups plan a host of activities 
for their members. Almost every weekend, 
the Newman Club and the Hillel Foundation 
each sponsor some type of social program 
along with their religious services. A unique 
part of the religious groups at Michigan State 
is the Asher Student Foundation, a religiously 
oriented living unit for students of the Chris­
tian Science faith.

Asher Student Foundation

Mrs. Bonneta Gray, Asher House housemother, discusses the rules 
and regulations they must observe with new members Don Hixson, 
Fred Haines, Chris Coniglio and Don Milano.

Asher House has the distinction of being the only col­
lege Christian Science living unit in the country. It re­
ceives frequent visits from other groups who hope to 
establish a similar living unit on their own campuses. 
Asher House receives support from Christian Scientists 
all over the United States.

To provide a religious and educational atmosphere for 
its members and facilities for all Christian Science students 
at MSC is the purpose of Asher House. Organized in 1946, 
Asher House is the home for 34 Christian Science men on 
campus. Today’s site was purchased in 1949 and serves 
as a social gathering place for all Christian Science stu­

dents on campus.

Ole Jacobsen explains their duties to new pledges Red Mangol, Don 
Chamberlin and Bob Rentschler. They will be required to make a 
pledge plaque bearing an Asher House symbol and carry it wit 
them during the final days of their pledging.

The East Lansing City Hall received a pre-spring clean­
ing in March as Asher House men washed the outer frame­
work and walls of the city council chamber as one of their 
community projects. Pledges engage in various service 
projects as part of the group’s purpose to serve the com­
munity.

Asher House men invite other Christian Science stu­
dents to television and costume parties, an openhouse, 
and picnics where members old and new have an oppor­
tunity to become acquainted.

A red letter event on the Asher House calendar is the 
annual dinner before the J-Hop. The dinner provides a 
homecoming for Asher House alumni who are also invited 
to attend. Spring term, a senior dinner dance is sponsored, 
honoring the graduating seniors and the outstanding mem­
bers of the house. Awards for scholarship and activities 
are given to deserving members.

Asher House members Wally Johnson, Agathona Aerni and Karl 
Ziegenhagen discuss a new basketball play. Members participated

Christian

Science Organization

Christian Science members gather in the parlors of the Peoples 
Church to elect officers at their business meeting which is con­
ducted once each term.

The Christian Science Organization is a religious organ­

ization which seeks to unite the Christian Science students 

at MSC. They strive to correct false impressions concern­

ing the Christian Science religion and to benefit all students 

who come in contact with the work and beliefs of this 

religion.

Fall term the organization held a reception for all new 

Christian Science students in the Forestry Cabin. Former 

MSC students were on hand to give a panel discussion on 

the values and use of religion after graduation. The 

organization also sponsored two lectures on Christian 

Science in the Alumni Chapel.

The group holds weekly meetings which are devoted 

to readings and student testimonies. Once each term, 

business meetings are conducted and the members plan 

their program for the forthcoming term.

Where good friends meet, could well be the motto of 

the Christian Student Foundation. CSF was organized to 
acquaint students of all Protestant faiths, Baptist, Congre­

gational, Methodist, Presbyterian and Evangelical, and to 
relate them to the state and national religious movements.

The foundation has a variety of activities including study 
groups, campus vespers, meditation groups and weekend 

retreats to satisfy the wide range of religious interests 

among its members. CSF has several community and 

benevolent projects, the most important being the support 

of a foster child in Austria.

Following Sunday morning services at the Peoples 

Church, CSF has a denominational breakfast for its 

members and their guests in the College House.

Members of Christian Students Foundation close their weekly 
Sunday evening meetings with a hymn. Speakers are frequently 
invited to lead discussions of interest to the members.

Newman Club members go informal in jeans and plaid shirts at 
their hard times party winter term. The club schedules a busy

program of activities in Newman Hall which was constructed 
through the efforts of its members and alumni.

Newman Club

Newman Club is the official organization of Catholic 
students on campus. It is one of 500 such clubs on secular 
throughout the country. 
and state college campuses 
Believing that the soul of education is the education of 
the soul, the Newman Club program is essential to the 
spiritual, 
intellectual and social development of the 
Catholic student. Through this program, students learn 
to know and live their faith.

The many club activities are aimed at intellectual, 
spiritual and social purposes. They include an annual 
retreat, the mission, daily Rosary, premarital and marriage 
counseling service and instruction, Novena devotions and 
special devotions during Lent.

Whether it’s to discuss religion, studies or love prob­
lems or just to watch TV, students will find an open door 
at the rectory. Father “Mac” and the other chaplains are 
always ready with a smile and a helping hand for all 
students.

The genuine interests of Newman Club members gener­
ate a deep appreciation of the Catholic Faith as is shown 
by their fréquentation of the sacraments. Every Sunday

evening an open house and Philosophy Club meeting are 
held at Newman Hall. College professors are often invited 
to discuss questions of interest to the members.

On the social calendar, the Newman Club schedules 
informal dances and picnics. Special get-to-gethers are 
held every Saturday night which 
include hard-times 
parties, skating parties and dancing. Sunday morning 
breakfasts are served following the 8:45 Mass, and initi­
ated this winter, was the practice of dedicating each week 
to a particular city or state throughout the country.

Spring term, the Newman Club sponsors the May 
Crowning ceremony in the bandshell. Dressed in blue 
robes, the members participate in a living Rosary in honor 
of the Virgin Mary.

YWCA

Through the imaginative spirit of Miss Edith McDermott, 
the first professor of Home Economics at MSC, and Mrs' 
J. E. Snyder, the president’s wife, a student YWCA was 
formed in 1896. Thirty-four coeds attended the organi­
zation’s first meeting in Abbott Hall.

The College YWCA was part of the program of Peoples 
Church until the late forties when it became a separate 
organization. In 1954, the YWCA and YMCA purchased 
jointly the Y House of MSC.

The YWCA members meet in small groups each week 
to work on service projects such as repairing toys to be 
sent to the children’s homes. The groups get together once 
a month to discuss their progress and plan future activities 
of the YWCA.

YMCA

Founded at Michigan State in 1883, the College YMCA 

is one of the oldest organizations on campus. For seventy- 

two years, as a fellowship of student and faculty men, it 

has sought to give an expression to the Christian religion 

which is intellectually mature and emotionally satisfying.

YMCA members examine the recent issue of their national maga­
zine, THE INTERCOLLEGIAN, with Robert Walker, “Y” ex­
ecutive secretary. With the YWCA, the group owns its house.

When it was first established, the YMCA performed 

such services as student employment, counseling, publish­

ing the freshman orientation booklet and teaching courses 

in religion. From 1922 to 1947, the YMCA was affiliated 

with the student program of Peoples Church, sharing staff 

and quarters with this group. In 1947, the YMCA moved 

its officers to the Union and six years later, the present 

“Y House” was secured jointly with the College YWCA.

This year has been one of growth in service for the 

YMCA as some 650 events served over 12,000 persons. 

Activities of the organization included Freshman Camp, 

YMCA Boys’ Club, United Nations Seminar, Intercollegiate 

conferences, all-college square dances and Chapel Vespers.

New students had an opportunity to get acquainted 
during Welcome Week at the freshman reception spon­
sored by Spartan Christian Fellowship. The second chap­
ter of the national Inter-Varsity Christian Fellowship to 
be established in the United States, the group schedules 
Bible studies, discussions, lectures and prayer meetings. 
Members held informal Bible discussions in living units 
as they attempted to accomplish their aim: to know Christ 
and to make Flim known.

Highlighting this year’s activities was an international 
student missionary convention at the University of Illinois. 
The Fellowship sent over twenty delegates to the week-long 
conference at Urbana, Illinois, attended by 1,800 students 
from forty countries.

Teas, banquets and informal gatherings are included in 
SCF’s calendar which is rounded out by weekend retreats. 
Most of the activities of the inter-denominational group 
center around Bethel Manor. Whenever possible SCF 
members spend part of their summer at Inter-Varsity 
training camps in Canada or in California.

Delores West and Ted Tomblinson receive name tags from Don 
Jagger at their first SCF meeting. It isn t long before new mem­
bers become acquainted with the group at lectures and informal 
discussions which make up SCF activities.

Lutheran Students 
Association

The Lutheran Students Association is organized to ful­
fill the spiritual and social needs of Lutheran students at 
Michigan State. One of the ways this is accomplished is 
through weekly discussions on topics of interest to the 
group, held during their Sunday evening meetings. Among 
the most successful of these was a joint discussion with 
the Canterbury Club.

The social calendar of the Lutheran students is always 
well filled. Fall term the members and their dates took 
advantage of the good weather to hold a hayride and 
scavenger hunt.

President John A. Hannah

As Michigan State begins its second one hundred 
years as a pioneer educational institution, President 
John A. Hannah can well be proud of the reputation 
and stature which the school has acquired under his 
administration. Since he became President in 1941, 
he has stimulated an increase in the school’s physical 
plant as well as in its academic curriculum and ex­

tension work.

President Hannah, a Michigan State graduate in 

agriculture of 1923, directed the school’s vigorous 

program through the years of World War II, the chal­

lenge of the post-war expansive enrollment and the 

demands for flexibility in twentieth century educa­

tional patterns.

Before assuming his duties as President, Dr. Han­

nah had already made an outstanding reputation at 
Michigan State. He was an extension specialist in

poultry husbandry from 1923 to 1933 and Secretary 
of the State Board of Agriculture, 1935-1941.

In addition to his academic duties, President Han­
nah has served his profession and his nation well. 
From February, 1953, to July, 1954, he was Assistant 
Secretary of Defense for Manpower and Personnel; 
at present, he is chairman of the United States section 
of the Permanent Joint Board on Defense, Canada- 

United States.

President Hannah is a past president of the Asso­
ciation of Land-Grant Colleges and Universities and 
has served on various committees of the American 
Council on Education. He is a member of the White 
House Conference on Education, the Educational 
Committee Advisory to the Foreign Operations Ad­
ministration and of the Institute of International Edu­
cation. He is a member of Phi Kappa Phi honor 

fraternity.

When the Agricultural College of Michi­
gan was opened in 1857, students were trained 
primarily for careers as farmers and as teach­
ers of agricultural science. The curriculum, 
therefore, was limited to satisfying these ob­
jectives. As the needs of society became more 
complex and the demand for training in addi­
tional areas presented itself, Michigan State 
was ready to expand its program of instruc­
tion and research in order to serve the state 
and the people more fully.

Beginning with Engineering, Michigan 
State has added schools at the undergraduate 
level to answer this demand. Home Eco­
nomics, Veterinary Medicine, Science and 
Arts, Business and Public Service, Basic Col­
lege and Education have assumed major edu­
the 
cational responsibilities. 
School of Graduate Studies has provided the 
means for post graduate work and the Con­
tinuing Education Service has extended the 
classroom to include all of Michigan.

In addition, 

schools

School of Agriculture came first

Instrumental in forming the policies of the School of Agriculture 
are Durward B. Varner, now MSC vice-president, Lloyd M. Turk, 
and Dean Thomas K. Cowden. Varner heads extension work.

The oldest division of Michigan State, the School of 
Agriculture, has the distinction of being the first school 
in the country organized to teach scientific agriculture.
This honor has not been preserved without energetic 
leadership, hard work and a dedication to improve the 
agricultural techniques of the nation’s farmers. Since 
1855, the knowledge that has been disseminated by the 
School of Agriculture has moved Michigan into the ranks 
of the top ten states in the production of more than twenty 
crops.

In step with new developments in agriculture, the school 
is constantly seeking to improve farm and home life.

Three generations of Hubbards, all of whom attended MSC’s 
School of Agriculture, look over school’s centennial literature.

382

Scientists in the School of Agriculture perform experiments in 
atomic research and atomic effects on plant life.

During its early years, the school has faced many prob­
lems. One of the most formidable was the best method 
to tell the farmers of the developments and experiments 
being carried on by the school. In January, 1876, the 
faculty established the first Farmers’ Institutes.

These institutes were received favorably by the farmers 
and in 1894, the first short course in dairying met on 
campus. With the beginning of yearly railroad excursions 
in 1897, even more farmers were able to attend sessions 
and see the work being done in East Lansing. Farmers 
were able to bring their problems to Michigan State and 
to learn the newest agricultural methods.

The School of Agriculture is designed not only for 
teaching, but for research and extension services as well. 
The school includes more graduate students than any of 
the other schools on campus. However the bulk of the 
enrollees are in the undergraduate division.

Graduates of the school who do not begin operating 
farms of their own, assume duties as county agents or 
agricultural specialists. Some graduates become instructors 
in other colleges and universities, spreading the knowledge 
gained in the highly developed research departments of 
the school.

Student livestock and dairy judging teams compete in shows and contests throughout the 
country. This year for the first time in its history, the dairy products judging team included a 
coed. Above, Ted Leipprandt, Dwight Barlow, Bill Bortel, Charles Coussens, James Brinks 
and Professor R. B. Warren, members of the 1954-55 livestock judging team, look over a 
Hampshire ewe.

Proof of the school’s striving for newest methods is in 
its atomic research department, in which it studies effects 
of radioactivity. Another important series of experiments 
deal with clothing and nutrition, results of which are sent 
out to farmers through the school’s extension service which 
includes agents in every county in Michigan. Through 4-H 
clubs and home demonstrations, agents reach over 125,000 

people a year.

The extension service, financed jointly by federal, state 
and county governments, is designed to solve problems 
immediately which the farmers have. With more than 
300 active research projects being completed, up-to-date 

information is available in most any field.

Research is not just limited to farm crops, but helps 
the farmer concerned with animal husbandry. The tech­
niques of breeding better stock so that they are stronger 

and more marketable benefit cattle farmers.

Continual research and on-campus training linked with 

an active and growing extension service are realizing the 

dreams of the pioneers who 100 years ago organized a 

school to benefit the farmers.

A county agricultural agent tells an orchard grower of new 
methods in tree grafting. County agents visit farms in Michigan 
and answer questions which farmers have submitted to MSC.

384

Research and experiments spread knowledge

At the state experimental stations throughout Michigan research 
projects are performed to develop new and better crops.

Landscape architecture students add the finishing touches to a 
scale model of a section of the campus. This curriculum is one 
of the many in the School of Agriculture.

Experimental workers study the methods of tapping for maple 
syrup. New techniques are tested and retested before being re­
leased to farmers. Results are sent to extension agents.

385

Dean John D. Ryder is completing his first year as head of the 
School of Engineering. Prior to coming to Michigan State, Dean 
Ryder directed the electrical engineering department at Illinois.

Does the Department of Civil and Rural Engineering 

sound familiar? Probably not, but it happens to have 

been the first department in what is now the School of 

Engineering, the second oldest school at MSC.

In 1885, the course in mechanical engineering, later 

spoken of as the division of engineering, was established. 

In September of that year, about forty students enrolled 

in this newly established “mechanical department.” It was 

in 1901 that options in civil engineering in the junior and 

senior years were offered.

The Engineering School moved into its new home, the 

Engineering Building, in 1904. This gave the school a 

much needed opportunity for expansion. In 1909, courses 

in electrical engineering were offered for the first time. 

Later the division of engineering was formally organized 

to include the departments of civil engineering, drawing 

and design, mechanical engineering, physics and electrical 

engineering.

March 5, 1916, was a day long to be remembered by 

the Engineering School. This was the date that the Engi­

neering Building burned. It was through the generous 

donations of Mr. R. E. Olds that rebuilding operations 

began later that same year.

A metallurgical engineering student uses this equipment to test 
the hardness of different types of metals. Engineering training 
includes the operation of many types of machinery and motors.

387

Research is extensive

Above—An electrical engineering major checks a meter in one 
of the many laboratories. Right—The operations and uses of an 
air compressor are explained to mechanical engineering students 
by their instructor.

The growth of industry during the first years of the 
twentieth century had a profound effect on the Engineering 
School. Many engineering graduates of MSC were leaders 
in this industrial growth.

Chemical Engineering was added about 1916 in response 
to a demand induced by the growth of the chemical manu­
facturing industry. Office and laboratories are found on 
the top floor of the Olds Hall, and a unit process labo­

ratory stands just back of the old power plant.

The Engineering Experiment Station was established in

The School of Engineering is working in cooperation 
with the national government on several defense projects. 
These projects are primarily in the departments of chemical 
engineering and applied mechanics.

Expansion of their present facilities is the main objective 
of the school. At the present time, Baccalaureate and 
Masters degrees are offered in each of the six departments; 
namely, Agriculture Engineering, Chemical Engineering, 
Civil Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engi­
neering and Metallurgical Engineering. All but Civil Engi­
neering have approved doctorate degrees, and it is expected 
that Civil Engineering will qualify before this school year 
is over.

The growth of the School of Engineering has continued 
from the forty students enrolled in 1885, to 1,906 enrolled 
in the fall term of 1954. It is expected that the School 
of Engineering will continue to grow and become even 
more important to the state and the nation.

Home Economics: homemakers, researchers

A delicious aroma was emerging from the “coop,” and 
the campus knew the Women’s Division was baking. The 
“coop,” as it was commonly called, was Morrill Hall in 
1900, when it was occupied by the Home Economics 
Department. The forty-two coeds and their instructor 
lived on the fourth floor with classrooms occupying the 
rest of the building. It wasn’t until 1924 that the school 
moved into the present Home Ec building.

The original program covered many phases of home 
economics, stressing domestic economy and preparing the 
students for teaching and homemaking. But the school 
began to expand with the organization of the department 
of research and graduate study in nutrition. Field work 
in textiles and clothing, a course for the development of 
work other than teaching, gave the coeds an opportunity 
to study retail trade and business methods.

In 1915 the extension program, which was to develop 
into a statewide project, began. Emphasis was placed on 
the importance of institutional management as the students 
received practical training in the East Lansing High School 
and the Women’s Building dining room.

Learn by doing

The School of Home Economics has undergone a tre­
mendous growth since its modest beginning in 1896. The 
original course, which was to train young women to apply 
science to the duties of the home, has expanded into the 
departments of Foods and Nutrition, Home Management 
and Child Development, Institutional Administration, 
Textiles, Clothing and Related Arts and Home Economics 
Education.

The Home Economics School is justly proud of its 
growth and accomplishments and is continuing its efforts 
to increase the understanding of students in the art and 
science of better home living to prepare them for pro­
fessions.

Baking courses are an important part of home economics training. 
Foods and nutrition studies precede cooking classes giving coeds 
a thorough understanding of foods and their preparation.

as well as the equipment employed in textile testing is proof of 
the excellent facilities which the school offers.

Veterinary Medicine

Veterinary medicine at Michigan State actually began 
26 years before a division of vet medicine was even 
established. The first class in veterinary science was 
offered in 1883, and three years later the first veterinary 
building was completed.

The state legislature, in 1907, approved an act estab­
lishing a department of veterinary science, with authority 
to grant the Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree. Two 
years later, a Division of Veterinary Science was estab­
lished which was to be the immediate forerunner of the 
present School of Veterinary Medicine. Michigan State 
became the eighth land-grant college to establish such a 
school and the first class was admitted in 1910.

Dean Chester F. Clark is m charge of the School of Veterinary 
Medicine, including the various clinics and services. He has been 
dean since 1951.

Enrollment in the veterinary school during those early 

years was small. Until 1935, no class graduated more 
than fourteen students and the total for the first 22 classes 
was 183. In the beginning, clinical facilities were very 
limited, but this was soon remedied by the construction 

of the Surgery and Clinic building in 1914. There was 
an increasing demand for women trained in medical biology 
so this curriculum was added to the Veterinary school.

■ : *

The veterinary school was growing by 1935 when the 
number of graduates in that class jumped to 26 and the 
total enrollment climbed from 119 to 226. The college 
curriculum for vet students was increased from four to 
five years by the addition of a pre-professional year in the 
applied science division.

A new addition to the original Surgery and Clinic build­
ing was necessary in 1939. Facilities were still inadequate 
due to the increase in enrollment and plans were made to 
remodel the hospital and build the main portion of Giltner 
Hall which was completed in 1952.

In recent years the pre-professional curriculum has 
included two years, and the total curriculum consists of 
three two-year periods. Students who satisfactorily com­
plete the pre-clinical courses are granted a bachelor of 
science degree. Sixty-four students are admitted to the 
pre-clinical courses each year.

Professional courses in veterinary medicine are taught 
in five departments including anatomy, bacteriology and 
public health, pathology, physiology and pharmacology, 
and surgery and medicine. Thirty-six veterinarians and a 
like number of other professional personnel make up the 
staff.

In addition to its teaching duties, the school serves 
the public through the performance of animal autopsies 
and the examination and treatment of large and small 
animals. Another important function of the school is its 
research work, particularly in the study of breeding, 
disease prevention and nutrition.

Specialization—the theme for all of today’s education, 
or so it seems. But it is not enough that a student become 
an expert in his own particular field. He must also have 
a wide acquaintance with science, literature, philosophy 
and history to effectively participate in our democratic 

way of life.

Educators at MSC began to realize this fact as early 
as 1922, when they established the Division of Literature 
and Fine Arts, in addition to the Division of Applied 
Sciences. In 1944, these two divisions were united under 

the School of Science and Arts.

The School has undergone rapid expansion until at 
present it contains five major divisions: Biological Sciences, 
Fine Arts, Language and Literature, Mathematical and 
Physical Sciences and Social Sciences. Each of these 
departments is striving to provide students with a liberal 
education, in addition to study in their specialized fields.

Business and Public Service in the community

“We need your aid.” This was an appeal to MSC from 
the Premier of Vietnam who visited the college in 1952. 
It was a request for a broad program of technical assist­
ance in public administration.

MSC accepted the responsibility and gave the assign­
ment to the School of Business and Public Service. The 
head of the department of political science, the college 
director of public relations, the head of police administra­
tion and the head of the department of economics were 
selected to represent MSC. They flew to Washington for 
conferences with the State Department before completing 
their trip to the Far East.

The group consulted with Vietnamese government offi­
cials in the areas of public administration, public informa­
tion, finance and economics, and law enforcement. One 
of the objectives of the program is to develop an inter­
university program between MSC and the University of 
Delat at Vietnam to train Vietnamese in public administra­
tion methods.

Now that a program has been established, it must 
receive the necessary support to succeed. The School of 
Business and Public Service accepts this challenge and is 
devoting all of its efforts to enable Vietnam to take its 
place among the free nations of the world.

In Sao Paulo, Brazil, the School of Business and Public Service has 
established a program of assistance in business administration.

When the School of Business and Public Service was 
established in 1944, it included many of the professional 
programs that had been under the supervision of Applied 
Science and Liberal Arts departments. It was felt that 
combining these programs under one school would provide 
additional educational facilities.

Actually, the curricula that were included had been 
taught on the campus for some years. Economics had 
been offered as far back as 1885, but it was not until 1949 
that economics and political science were included in the 
school.

When first begun, the upper school had approximately 
240 students but in the few short years of its existence 
it has grown into the largest school on campus in number 
of majors. A department of the school, business adminis­
tration, has attained distinction of its own. It is the largest 
school of its kind in Michigan, fifth largest in the Big 
Ten and eleventh largest in the country in number of 
degrees granted.

In 1949, Dean Herman Wyngarden took over the duties 
as head of Business and Public Service, shaping it into a 
school that is complete in providing excellent fields of 
study for the students interested in them.

Along with the courses taught on the campus, many 

students are required to do field service training, which

for police administration majors includes working with 

law enforcement agencies throughout Michigan during the 

senior year.

Journalism majors, however, are required to spend a 

six week session during the summer working on a news­

paper. These field service training periods prepare the 

student to step into a job upon graduation with some prac­

tical experience.

Basic College: A common experience

First term freshmen frequently confront their enrollment 

officers with the question, “What are these basic college 

courses? Can’t we elect what we want to take?”

It is a familiar question and the instructors are ready 

with an answer. Every freshman on a four year course 

at MSC is required to take three terms of natural science, 

communication skills, humanities and social science some­

time during his first two years. The aim of the Basic 

College program is to help the student develop into a 

more all-around individual. It is hoped that these four 

courses will provide a basic program of educational ex­

perience for all students.

Many freshmen have not yet decided upon their major. 

The Basic College gives students a chance to explore the 

many fields of learning before choosing one for concen­

trated study. The Basic College also makes counseling 

service available to all students, in order to give them any 

information they might need in deciding upon their major.

In 1955 Dean Thomas Hamilton began his second year as head 
of the Basic College. He is writing a book on the history and 
development of the Basic College to outline this Michigan State 
project for other college administrators.

Students with difficulty in reading receive special help in the 
reading improvement service. Visual aids implement the extra 
instruction. Writing and arithmetic clinics also help students with 
problems in these areas.

An instructor outlines social science course work to his class. This 
is one of the four basics, required of all students.

Natural science trains freshmen in the use of the scientific method 
and gives them a fundamental background in such fields as 
chemistry, biology and zoology. An instructor demonstrates to 
his class the structure of a frog as they prepare to study it closely.

A new addition to the Basic College building is this plaque which 
honors the seven students who have received all “A’s” in Basic 
College work since the program was inaugurated in 1944.

407

Studies and changes keep curricula fresh

Communication Skills training includes learning how to speak 
before a group. Nancy Forslund, giving her demonstration speech, 
shows the steps and procedures required to prepare a banana split.

On March 9, 1944, the MSC faculty held a meeting on 
the possibility of establishing some common educational 
experience for all students. The group provided for a 
committee, representative of the major administrative 
units, to study the problem and submit recommendations. 
On July 1, 1944, the State Board of Agriculture approved 
the action of the faculty and the Basic College came into 
being. Seven comprehensive core courses were estab­
lished, under the new system, only one of which was 
required.

Five years after its founding, the enrollment became 
stabilized and the faculty had its first opportunity to re­
examine the entire program. After an extensive study, a 
series of proposals for a reorganization of the Basic Col­
lege were developed and the new plan was approved by 
the faculty in 1951.

Four new courses, which combined the best features 
of the former seven, were required of all students so that 
all upperclassmen would acquire a common background 
and the upper schools would have a uniform foundation 
upon which to build their programs. The comprehensive 
examination system was modified and grades in Basic 
College courses were based partially on the final examina­
tion and the remainder on the instructor’s evaluation.

Many problems remain in developing this general edu­
cation program, but those closest to its present operations 
are optimistic that the Basic College is now better organ­
ized to achieve the purposes set for it in 1944.

The old world and the new come in for study and discussion in 
the Humanities sequence. The history of man is considered from 
the approaches of philosophy, art, music, literature, economics 
and politics. Part of the course work includes learning the differ­
ent types of classical, medieval and Baroque architecture.

408

Each term of Basic College work comes to the end with a final 
examination. These examinations, prepared by the Board of 
Examiners, test the comprehensive knowledge acquired by the 
student in the course and count for one-half of the final grade. 
Most of the two-hour long sessions meet in the Auditorium.

Coordinating the many activities and programs of Continuing 
Education is Dean Edgar L. Harden. He resigned this year to 
enter private business, and was succeeded by Durward B. Varner, 
Vice-President for Off-campus Education and Director of Continu­
ing Education.

In addition to its regular student enrollment at East 
Lansing, Michigan State annually serves men and women 
throughout Michigan who attend the Continuing Educa­
tion programs at Kellogg Center. This year, more than 
150,000 people took part in 400 special courses and con­
ferences on the campus. Similar programs reached others 
in communities throughout the State.

Michigan State’s adult education program originated in 
1861, as the Michigan Cooperative Extension Service in 
“answer to the growing needs of the farmer and rural 
people in general.” In later years the demand arose for 
“extension” courses in other fields. This resulted in 1948 
in the Continuing Education Service. This service was 
given the responsibility of all off-campus education pro­
grams, except agricultural extension, and of all confer­
ences, short courses and other non-credit campus pro­

grams.

The Kellogg Center for Continuing Education, built in 
1951 for over $2,500,000, accommodates these services.

Among the many conferences on campus sponsored by the Con­
tinuing Education service was one for landscape gardeners. Two 
members of the conference find the MSC campus a good spot to 
study effective landscaping.

Education: Nernst

Supervising the new School of Education is Dean Clifford E. 
Erickson. Before coming to this post, Dean Erickson was in charge 
of the Basic College program.

An indication of the increasing significance of the 
rapidly growing School of Education is the planning of 
the new education building soon to be constructed on 
South Campus. This building will house the school which 
now trains more teachers than any other college or uni­
versity in Michigan or in the Big Ten.

Education courses were first offered in conjunction 
with agriculture in 1905, and additional courses in Home 
Economics and other secondary fields were added as Mich­
igan State’s curriculum expanded.

In 1939, elementary teacher training was added and 
along with these, secondary education classes were taught 
in the Department of Education within the School of 
Science and Arts. This department acquired division status 
in 1946, and in 1952 became the School of Education.

414

The School of Education is now divided into several 
departments. These include guidance and counselor train­
ing, educational administration and supervision, higher 
education, physical education and recreation for men and 
women, vocational education, elementary education and 
secondary education.

The programs of these departments provide training for 
teachers, principals, supervisors and superintendents in 
school systems. They also train school psychologists, coun­
selors, instructors in institutions of higher learning, and 
specialists in adult, parental, pre-school and state educa­
tional programs.

Through these various programs, the School of Educa­
tion attempts to achieve the best possible correlation of 
academic training, professional information and laboratory 
and workshop experience in order to prepare adequately 
prospective teachers for their profession.

At present, the secondary education training program 
is the only teacher training program not under the exclu­
sive guidance of the school. Beginning July 1, 1955, 
secondary education students will enroll both in the school 
of their major and in the School of Education. This dual 
enrollment, it is believed, will provide secondary teachers 
with a richer educational background.

In charge of the program and of the 1,700 students of the School of 
Graduate Studies is Dean Thomas Osgood. He has held this post 
since 1941; previously, he was head of the physics department.

For a research project in nutrition, Francis West and David Libby

Mycology students Fred Van Nostran and Ed Tylutki make a very 
minute point on a glass needle on the Microforge. This needle,

Long hours of study and research, climaxed with a 
thesis, weren’t always required of graduate students. Mem­
bers of Michigan State’s first graduation classes received 
a Master of Science degree two or three years after gradu­
ation if they continued in active educational work or 
leadership in the community. It wasn’t until 1879 that this 
practice was discontinued and graduate students were 
required to write a thesis.

Professional degrees continued to be granted to those 
students who had spent five years or more in their pro­
fession and who had submitted a thesis. In 1892, graduate 
students were required to do one year of residence work 
at Michigan State. Until 1922, the only degree offered 
for resident graduate work was the Master of Science. 
In that year, students were first accepted as candidates 
for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy.

The School of Graduate Studies was established in 1930 
under the direction of Dean Ernst Bessy. The supervision 
of the resident graduate work was placed under the direc­
tion of the Graduate Council which still serves in this 
function.

Since 1930, the Graduate School has continued to 
expand from its original enrollment of 240 advanced 
students until today’s figure of 1760. With the increased 
need for post-graduate work in many fields and with the 
growing demand for more specialized training, the Graduate 
School has kept pace by offering Masters’ degrees in 37 
fields and Doctorate degrees in 28 subjects.

Scholarships and fellowships give the Graduate School 
an opportunity to attract graduate students to Michigan 
State from colleges and universities throughout the world.

Army and Air Force ROTC

Beauty is an added attraction to the ROTC. Honorary colonels 
Jeanne Warrington of the Air Force and Jan Somers of the Army 
prepare for a spring term parade at which they will review the 
cadets. Student officer groups choose the honorary corps sponsors.

Culminating the ROTC program is the commissioning ceremony at 
which cadets exchange their pips for second lieutenant bars. Presi­
dent Hannah addressed the new officers and their families at the 
program which was held in Demonstration Hall due to poor weather.

An Air Force unit executes a column left movement as it approaches 
the parade ground. Spring term parades are weekly duties for all 
cadets who also have a two hour drill period per week. An Armed 
Forces Day parade is one of the biggest of these events.

For every male Spartan in his first two years at Michigan 
State, the Reserve Officers’ Training Corps program is an 
important part of college training. As in other land grant 
colleges and universities, ROTC is a required course in 
the first two years, and is optional in the junior and senior 
years.

Both Army and Air Force ROTC programs are offered 
at Michigan State, and the freshman, when he first registers, 
selects one of these and remains in it until his training is 
completed.

Juniors are accepted into the advanced course if they 
meet the physical and mental qualifications established 
for officers. Advanced cadets, in the summer between 
their junior and senior year, are required to attend a 
summer camp session which lasts six weeks for Army 
trainees and four weeks for Air Force students.

422

Army ROTC cadets at summer camp at Fort Campbell, Kentucky, take time out on bivouac for chow 
from “C” rations. The six week session trains the future officers in leadership, military customs and 
handling of weapons. Cadets learn first hand of their future Army responsibilities.

An Army instructor points out the important features of a .30 cal 
heavy machine gun to sophomore cadets. A course in crew-served 
weapons is part of all students’ training.

Air Force seniors, with their instructor, inspect a jet engine in the 
classroom. Air Force cadets are prepared primarily for careers as 
flying officers or as engineers but a few others are also selected.

The College Health Service offers complete medical care for stu­
dents. The seven staff physicians, located in the Olin Memorial 
Health Center, diagnose illnesses and prescribe medicine which is 
furnished free to the student. In case of serious illness, the student 
may be admitted to the hospital for a longer period of time for care.

In addition to the schools, there are certain departments 
which are of such a broad nature as not to be under the 
supervision of any one particular dean. Most of these 
departments are included in the All-College Division, an 
administrative unit to centralize the operations of these 
departments under Dean Combs.

Included in the All-College Division are the library, 
the museum, the audio-visual center, the military science 
program and the educational research committee.

Several other important departments are part of the 
Dean of Students’ organization. The College Health service, 
the alumni office, the placement bureau and scholarship 
office fall into this category.

The Campus Police department, which includes 21 men, 
is an important part of the college community. When 
necessary, the department works with the East Lansing 
police and State Police. Most of its work involves traffic 
control.

Staff members prepare an exhibit for the college museum. Located 
in the basement of the Auditorium, the museum will soon find 
enlarged quarters in the library. Displays attract student interest.

424

In any educational institution, the library will be the center of 
activity. Cramped for space this year, the library will find plenty 
of room when it moves into the newly constructed building fall term.

The Audio-Visual department of Michigan State 
includes the 
various audio-visual aids to teaching. An instructor demonstrates 
how to thread a movie projector which might be used in any class.

Campus police personnel are ever on the alert. A three-w ay radio system dispatches squad cars when trouble arises.

of Newsweek, plan a Newsweek spread on Michigan State’s 
centennial program, a big project for the department this year.

College photographer Everett Huby and photo editor Wilbur Nelson 
who directs the photo laboratory, change lenses on the laboratory’s 
Deardoff view camera. This branch of Information Services per­
forms all photographic services for Michigan State.

Information Services tells Spartan story

The Department of Information Services, located in 
Agriculture Hall, serves Michigan State not only as the 
publisher of all the official college publications, but 
also handles all relationships between Michigan State and 
the nation’s newspapers, magazines, radio and television 
stations.

Over 70,000 published newspaper articles have origi­
nated in the department and more than a million bulletins 
have been prepared and distributed by the bulletin office 
which is a division of Information Services.

A layout in the department’s art room receives the attention of 
Mark T. Allen, experiment station publications editor; Barbara 
Brown, staff artist; and Earl C. Richardson, extension editor. The 
art department is frequently consulted in preparing publications.

Sports editor Fred Stabley and his assistant, Ted Emery, check over 
a scoring sheet in Jenison Field House during a basketball game. 
Information Services’ sports staff personnel prepare material to 
aid sports writers covering MSC athletic events for Michigan papers.

Since the first graduating class of eight, 
hurrying off to the Civil War in 1861, Michi­
gan State has been granting degrees to an 
ever increasing number of seniors each year. 
In 1955, more than 2,000 students will receive 
bachelor degrees. In addition to the increase 
in numbers, there has been a corresponding 
growth in the diversity of major areas in which 
the degree recipients have elected to specialize.

For that first graduating class there was no 
record; only a painting made from individual 
photographs of the eight. Since that time, the 
records have increased until the present, where 
in addition to pictures of each senior, there 
is a description of the activities in which he 
has participated. A graduate of today has a 
complete album of his own and his fellow 
seniors’ activities.

Senior Council

Top Row—Barry Prusin, Tom Cummings, Dale Blount, Bill Reid, 
Tom Payette, Bill Thistle, Douglas Coulter. Second Row—Dave 
Hayhow, Dan Webster, Marge Price, June Walters, Jack Subar, 
Roger Walker. First Row—Joan Weaver, Jess Fiesselmann, Kate 
Sundberg, Virginia Payette, Judy Streng.

Coordinating the activities of the centennial senior class 

were the senior council and the senior officers. The officers, 

chosen at the spring election of 1954, appointed the 14 

council members and immediately commenced work on 

the various projects which traditionally are senior activities.

Senior Council took charge of the annual spring activi­

ties which lead up to graduation. It planned the Senior 

Ball, a dance exclusively for seniors and their dates and 

made arrangements for the Senior Swingout, the parade 

of seniors in their caps and gowns to the auditorium where 

a special program is planned for them.

Council members also were responsible for arranging 

the President’s Reception for seniors and for directing the 

Water Carnival. Another function of the group was the 

selection of the ’55 club, the alumni organization for the 

class.

Vice president Dan Webster, treasurer Marge Price, president Bill Thistle and secretary June Walters discuss plans 
for the pre-graduation senior activities. As officers of the council, they also selected the senior council. The four 
were reponsible for coordinating programs and representing the senior class to the administration and student body.

A senior prepares for graduation by getting measured for his cap 
and gown which he will wear at the Senior Swingout in addition 
to the commencement exercises. For the first time in history, the 
council required caps and gowns at the winter term commencement.

Some new activities kept council members busy, too. 

For the first time in its history, the senior class had a 

constitution, drawn up by the council, which will guide 

future graduating classes. The council and officers sent out 

a letter to every senior urging support of the MSU bill 

before the state legislature.

The council conceived a new honor this year. It made 

plans for the selection of a “Senior of the Year” with the 

award going to the outstanding coed and male graduate. 

Students who previously had been chosen “Senior of the 

Week” were considered for the honor. A joint student- 

faculty committee made the selection.

Guiding the council and class in all these programs and 

activities were the senior officers, Bill Thistle, Dan Webster, 

June Walters and Marge Price.

High grades have been an important part of life at the 
Alpha Chi Omega house ever since the sorority’s establish­
ment here in 1928. Since its first senior class graduated, 
it has been an Alpha Chi tradition to award the senior with 
the highest grade point average a diamond to wear in her pin.
Other Alpha Chi traditions include the annual Christmas 
party for cerebral palsy children in Lansing. Each of the 
coeds dresses as a story book character for a skit.

Each March 1, in honor of the sorority’s patron, Hera, 
wife of Zeus, the coeds celebrate a Greek festival day 
tradition, making and presenting dolls and doll clothes to 
underprivileged children.

One of the members’ favorite traditions is the initiation 
breakfast, held each spring at one of the Lansing hotels. 
After the early morning ceremony and breakfast, which 
honors the new sisters, all the coeds attend church together.

Alpha Gamma Delta, Michigan State’s oldest national 
sorority, was founded in November, 1921, the year the 
college ban on national fraternal groups was lifted.

The Alpha Gam’s began as a local society of ten coeds 
who met in Morrill Hall, then a women’s dormitory. 
Eventually they bought an old white frame house which 
served the chapter until one fateful night in 1928, it 
burned to the ground, routing pajama-clad coeds on to 
the street.

While the members took up temporary residence in 
dormitories and other sorority houses, their Detroit Alum­
nae Association and local fraternities helped them ready 
a new chapter house on Bailey Street for occupancy the 
next fall. The coeds stayed on Bailey Street until 1953 
when they moved into their new house on Charles Street.
Favorite Alpha Gam projects include the annual party 
for Lansing-area cerebral palsy victims and the May Morn­
ing Breakfast for alumnae and undergraduates.

478

Alpha Gam’s gather in the house kitchen for pie and milk as 
they take a study break. The coeds appreciate the kitchen privi­
leges which they have.

Inviting faculty members to dinner in their new house gave Alpha 
Gamma Delta’s a chance to meet their instructors in an informal 
manner. Coeds greeted their guests with songs and entertainment.

In any sorority house phone booths receive a lot of use and the 
AOPi house is no exception. Two coeds answer the phone, hoping 
it’s that certain someone.

Each Christmas, AOPi’s say “Merry Christmas” to all the other 
campus living units by tying a giant cane and ribbon on the living 
unit’s doorway.

The Michigan State chapter of Alpha Omicron Pi was 
organized in 1932 by the Ann Arbor AOPi alumnae. The 
chapter served a two-year pledgeship under the name Beta 
Gamma. After the formative two years the members 
achieved full status as Beta Gamma chapter of the national 
organization.

Nationally and locally AOPi engages in two major phil­
anthropic projects. Foremost is their donation and active 
support of the Frontier Nursing project in the remote back- 
woods area of Kentucky.

On the Michigan State campus, each Christmas AOPi 
members decorate the doorways of other sororities and 
fraternities with miniature replicas of their own doorway 
decoration.

March, 1954, marked the birth of a new AOPi tradition, 
the IFC-PanHel song fest. Each Greek group was invited 
to send two members to the AOPi house for an evening of 
singing. This song fest was continued in 1955, and the 
AOPi’s hope to make it an annual event.

April 24, 1954, was a big day for the Alpha Phi’s as 
they burned their house mortgage at their annual “State 
Day.” This added another important page to the history 
of the Beta Beta chapter which purchased the house in 
1939.

The house is the result of many years of planning and 
anticipation. The Phi’s were the second local chapter at 
Michigan State to affiliate nationally. Originally they were 
founded as the Feronian Society in 1891.

The title “Feronian” was suggested by a member of the 
MAC faculty in honor of a Greek goddess. When Morrill 
Hall was built in 1900, the college gave the Feronian’s 
rooms in the basement which they furnished themselves.
The Beta Beta chapter of Alpha Phi was installed on 
February 17, 1922 by the University of Michigan chapter. 
When their present house was acquired, the Phi’s remem­
bered and honored their founders by naming one of the 
rooms in the house the “Feronian Room.”

A local group of coeds, who called themselves the Ero- 
Alphians, once resided in what is now Bethel Manor. They 
began to seek national sorority affiliation, and after investi­
gating various groups, decided to become a chapter of 
Alpha Xi Delta. In October, 1934, they were installed.
The same year, the coeds moved into their new chapter 
house, the present College House. They moved to Hillcrest 
Avenue in 1947, and in 1954 acquired their present home.

An old Alpha Xi tradition is the pinning ceremony. 
When one of the members receives a fraternity pin or 
engagement ring, she announces it to only one of her 
sorority sisters, who in turn gathers all the Alpha Xi’s 
in a circle. A candle is passed around the circle and 
the newly pinned coed blows it out and receives the 
congratulations of her sisters.

Another tradition of the chapter is the naming each 
year of the outstanding member who receives a ring.

The Chi Omega’s have a warm place in their hearts 
for the Kappa Sigma’s because it was a Kappa Sig, Dr. 
Charles Richardson, who helped them become established 
in 1895 at the University of Arkansas in Fayetteville, 
Arkansas.

Since coming to the Michigan State campus, the Chi 
O’s have lived in the same house on Oakhill Street and 
remodeled it in 1949 to enlarge their quarters.

Each year with their chapters from Hillsdale and Michi­
gan, the Chi O’s plan the Eleusinian festival. The three 
chapters meet at a different chapter house each year for 
a banquet and a tour of the campus.

Annually, the Chi O members join with the Sigma Chi’s 
to give a Christmas party for underprivileged children in 
the Lansing area. Santa Claus greets the children with 
gifts as they come to the house.

In the winter of 1948 Delta Delta Delta alumnae in the 
Lansing area shed their domestic duties temporarily and 
entertained rushees in their homes. After the spring 
initiation of the first Tri-Delt MSC pledge class, Phi 
Gamma chapter was officially installed on May 1.

The following fall, returning Tri-Delt’s moved into a 
home of their own on West Grand River. The sorority 
members started well as they won the PanHel scholarship 
trophy that first year.

Last year, the Tri-Delt’s honored their new pledges with 
a dance, “Stairway to the Stars,” and a tradition was 
inaugurated. The annual spring term dinner dance in a 
Lansing hotel is the big Tri-Delt party of the year.

In 1954 the coeds purchased in East Lansing three lots 
on which to build their new house. The Tri-Delt’s have 
done a lot of planning toward this and hope to be settled 
in it within the next two years.

Since the Delta Gamma’s arrived on the Michigan State 
campus in 1945, one tradition they have maintained is 
the “Demitasse Cup.” The tradition began in 1946 when 
the graduating members each presented a demitasse cup 
to the chapter. Each graduating DG since then has con­
tinued the tradition. These cups are used on Sundays for 
after dinner coffee.

Another tradition of the Delta Gamma’s is the presenta­

tion of a sorority ring to the outstanding pledge.

Not only do DG’s drink out of demitasse cups, but they 
love to play football, too. Every fall term the coeds dili­
gently practice for their annual “Powder Puff Bowl” game 
with the Gamma Phi Beta’s. This game has been an annual 
event since the two sororities became neighbors on Harri­
son Road.

A new addition to the “Powder Puff” game this year 
was the selection by the two sororities of a “He Queen.” 
Coeds chose the “queen” from fraternity entries.

On May 17, 1941, Beta Rho chapter of Delta Zeta was 
established at Michigan State. A formal dinner in the 
Union Building honored the charter members.

Their first year was a hard one for the new Delta Zeta’s. 
The coeds had no house in which to hold meetings or 
entertain rushees. But they proved that a house isn’t 
everything by winning the scholarship cup for sororities. 
In 1942, however, the DZ’s moved into an Abbott Road 
home.

During World War II, the Delta Zeta’s and the Phi 
Delta Theta’s traded houses because most males were in 
the Army. When the war was over, the DZ’s moved back 
to Abbott Road and made plans to remodel.

In the spring of 1952, while their house was having its 
face lifted, the coeds found shelter in the old ZTA house 
across from Snyder Hall. When they returned to their 
house, they found their front door had been switched 
from Abbott Road to Oakhill.

Beta Delta chapter of Gamma Phi Beta was colonized 
in the spring of 1944 through the efforts of the Lansing- 
East Lansing alumnae. Ten coeds formed a local club, 
“the Gamma Phi Colonizers,” and on June 3, 1944, the 
chapter was installed.

Arriving on campus near the end of World War II, the 
Gamma Phi’s rented the Psi Upsilon house until 1946. 
At that time they purchased a lot on North Harrison with 
plans to build a house in the near future.

Needing quarters at that time however, the coeds bought 
the present “Y” house. All the members pitched in, paint­
ing rooms and floors, preparing the house for occupancy.
But this didn’t finish their work however. In 1952, the 
Gamma Phi’s moved into their modern-style new home 
and again had to set to work. The coeds painted their 
own rooms and helped in landscaping their yard. When 
they were finished, they proudly held an open house for 
Michigan State officials and other guests.

A literary society by the name of Sororian was founded 
at MAC in 1903 with just 12 members. The badge, 
shaped like an anchor, bore the initials “L.S.,” represent­
ing the purpose of the organization. In 1926, 12 members 
of Sororian who had graduated from Michigan State re­
turned to be initiated into Kappa Alpha Theta which was 
being organized from the Sororian society.

Since that time the Beta Pi chapter has ably represented 

Theta on Michigan State’s campus.

The first Theta house was the present “Y” house and 
then the group moved into what is now FarmHouse. In 
1937, their present home was finished. Mrs. John Hannah, 
a Theta, was a member of the building committee for the 
house.

Each year Mrs. Hannah is hostess to the seniors of the 
sorority at a dinner and sorority alumnae honor the seniors 
at another party and welcome them into the alumnae 
organization.

The members of the Letonian Literary Society, after 
eight years on campus, chose to exchange their colors of 
orchid and gold for the green and white of Kappa Delta. 
The society had been founded in 1916 to promote high 
scholarship and ideals. The early 1920’s found these 
coeds interested in becoming affiliated with a national 
sorority and the aims of Kappa Delta seemed most similar 
to their own. Their petition to KD was accepted and the 
Letonians were installed in 1924, the third national soror­
ity at MSC.

Until recently housing has seemed to continually pre­
sent the KD’s with problems—both disastrous and amus­
ing. Twice in the chapter’s history, fire has caused unde­
sirable loss and hardship, once in 1927 and again in 1953. 
The more recent blaze necessitated the moving of all beds 
from the third floor dormer to the dining room. Through 
cooperation and planning, however, both eating and sleep­
ing were accomplished with little confusion and the KD’s 
managed to repair their house comfortably.

The Delta Gamma chapter of Kappa Kappa Gamma 
had its start when the Themian Literary Society was 
organized in May, 1898. The Themians were granted 
their Kappa charter at the Kappa convention in 1930 and 
on November 7, 1930, the local chapter was installed with 
18 coeds being initiated.

The next year, in the fall of 1931, the Kappa’s moved 
into their present home and began to build up the traditions 
which they have today.

One of the favorite traditions is the setting aside of a 
day to honor their housemother, Mrs. Remington. On this 
day, the Kappa’s are hostesses to all other housemothers at 
a bridge party.

A senior dinner is a favorite tradition for graduating 
Kappa’s. All the seniors and their parents are honored at 
dinner at the chapter house. Another dinner tradition is 
the annual bus boy turnabout day when the coeds wait on 
the bus boys.

This year the Pi Phi’s again found themselves awaiting 
the completion of a house so that they could have a perma­
nent home. Their newly finished home, on Harrison Road, 
was available for occupancy in February, but the Pi Phi’s 
jumped the gun by having one of their fall term meetings 
in the unfinished basement of the house.

The Pi Phi’s were colonized in 1944 and received their 

national charter in 1945.

502

At the time the local chapter was colonized the coeds 
lived in the Delta Chi house, vacant because of the war. 
Soon after, however, they bought another house and began 
making plans for the construction of their new home.

Nationally and locally the Pi Phi project is the support 
of the school and community in Gatlinburg, Tennessee. 
Pi Phi’s raise money through various service projects to 
benefit that community.

An important event on the Pi Phi calendar is the annual Christmas 
sing after the tree lighting ceremony. Pat Tavenner and Carolyn 
Johnson talk with a member of Delta Tau Delta which is the co­
sponsor of the sing. Pi Phi’s and Delt’s practice carols for weeks 
before the event.

Pi Beta Phi moved into a new house in the middle of winter term 
and coeds had to pitch in to make the house livable. Pat Mc­
Donald, Ann Ferguson and Sally Crick hang a mirror in the 
hallway. Other coeds fixed up their rooms with feminine touches.

“Swing back those paddles.” This was the familiar cry 
of the Sigma Kappa’s as they canoed up the Red Cedar 
each May to commemorate their beginning at Michigan 
State in 1927. The chapter members and alumnae would 
canoe up the river to Pinetum where they would spend 
the day in celebrating their birthday.

This was a happy annual occasion for the Sigma Kappa’s 

as they reminisced upon the chapter’s founding.

A group of coeds who were members of the Pythian 
Literary Society decided to affiliate with a national sorority. 
They began to consider a number of national groups before 
they finally decided upon Sigma Kappa.

Mrs. Robert Shaw, wife of the late president of MSC, 
took an interest in the Pythians and helped them in their 
affiliation. She opened her house to them and their guests 
and advised them whenever possible.

Zeta Tau Alpha traces its MSC history back to 1913 
when a local club, Sesame, was organized and purchased 
a house on Abbott Road. In 1929, the Sesame’s petitioned 
Zeta Tau Alpha and were accepted as the Beta Phi chapter.
The major service project of the ZTA’s is an annual 
Christmas party, with Asher House, for underprivileged 
children in the Lansing area. ZTA’s also participate in 
the cerebral palsy relief programs sponsored by their 
national organization.

At a quarterly scholastic dinner, improved scholars eat 
steaks and their less fortunate sisters who dropped in 
grades are served beans. At another dinner, the bus boys 
sit back and relax while the coeds have their turn at serv­
ing and entertaining the fellows.

ZTA’s are well acquainted with their housemother, Mrs. 
Jones, because they frequently hold teas in her honor. 
They also sponsor pledge dances, term parties and slumber 
parties.

Alpha Epsilon Phi is one of the newest sororities on the 
Michigan State campus. The national organization of the 
sorority and Michigan State were interested in establishing 
a chapter here and, in May, 1952, were successful when 
eight coeds were initiated.

The philanthropic project of the AEPhi’s is giving aid 
to Israel. Members raise money through such varied spare 
time activities as baby sitting, typing and even washing cars.
The coeds have plans in the future for a large roomy 
house but for the meantime they continue to hold their 
meetings and initiations in the Union.

Something new was added to the Michigan State campus 
this year when the local chapter of Phi Mu was initiated. 
The idea for the chapter came from three Phi Mu alumnae 
who had been graduated from Michigan State and who 
wanted to see their sorority represented here.

These alumnae interested some of their friends here in 
Phi Mu and received support from alumnae throughout 
the country and finally organized the chapter in December, 
1954.

The coeds who were contacted learned about the sorority 
and were pledged. They immediately began working on 
the Phi Mu national project, which is muscular distrophy 
aid. The members also were a great asset to the Lansing 
Community Nursery school which they served.

The original pledges have now gone active and are 
looking forward to securing their own chapter house.

Lacking a house, Phi Mu’s had to meet in the Union. After meetings, 
Ann Austin, Jackie Biron, Yvonne LeCronier, Ruth Hynes and 
Elaine Miller find the grill a good place to enjoy a cup of coifee.

February 3, 1954, was a happy day for the 17 coeds 
who became charter members in the Michigan State chapter 
of Alpha Kappa Alpha. But the members had certainly 
earned that honor.

Before being accepted by the national organization and 
by MSC, the coeds had to prove themselves. In January, 
1953, they formed the Ivyette interest club to learn about 
the sorority and its aims. They offered their services to 
various campus organizations, and did such work as enter­
taining convalescing soldiers at Percy Jones, reading to 
blind students and guiding tours of the campus.

The Ivyettes had proved their worth and were rewarded 

with membership in Alpha Kappa Alpha.

The pool in the front of South Campbell dormitory is 
the scene of much activity spring term. Following a long 
established tradition, the senior coeds are dunked as a 
final farewell of their college days.

The coeds of South Campbell are well-known for their 
achievements in intramural sports. For the past two years 
they have captured the first place trophy for their swim­
ming skills.

For their Christmas project this year, the coeds filled 
food baskets with Christmas dinners for 10 old people. 
The baskets were sent to a rest home in Lansing to bring 
holiday cheer to the shut-ins.

South Campbell residents pitched in to work on their 
homecoming display which won an honorable mention 
in the annual contest. The theme centered on a chef read­
ing a recipe which said in part, “The secret of success is 
in the beating.”

To raise votes for their UMOC candidate, the coeds 
staged a skit in the Union. Music majors composed a 
song about their candidate which made the performance 
a big success.

don who served Michigan State for many years as a 
librarian. The dorm opened its doors to coeds in 1948.
East Landon’s biggest contribution to campus activities 
is its outstanding performance in the inter-dorm sing 
every spring. The coeds record of three consecutive wins 
is due to a combination of vocal talent, good direction, 
and plenty of diligent practice.

The coeds worked hard on their homecoming display 
and they found that their efforts paid off as they received 
third place honors. The display was entitled “We’re going 
down in history.”

Christmas brings many projects for East Landon resi­
dents. This year they sponsored a party for several under­
privileged children in Lansing, which was enjoyed equally 
by the coeds and their guests.

Skis are put aside as East Landon coeds ask their neighbors to sign 
their stuffed animals, a permanent record of college friendships.

Kathy VanHaften and Vicki Planka help Lynn Johnson get ready 
for the dorm’s annual term party, the top Landon event.

East Landon residents admire the silver pattern from one coed’s 
hope chest. A tubbing follows all pinnings and engagements.

A Christmas tradition at East Landon requires that 
each coed put her name on an ornament which she hangs 
on the tree at the tree trimming party. These decorations 
are added to the dorm collection each year which still 
contains contributions from the first residents of the dorm. 
The coeds join with West Landon to sponsor a Christmas 
tea which climaxes holidays festivities.

Faculty and exchange dinners and a scholarship dinner 
for girls with a 3. or higher were an important part of the 
East Landon social calendar. The year’s activities were 
concluded with a farewell dinner for the graduating seniors.

“Fourth for bridge?” is a familiar call among West Landon residents 
as they get together after dinner before starting to study.

Nancy Treby, Jean Cabbage and Ellen Boston spend some free time 
in the dorm sewing room where they have access to sewing facilities.

In the spring of 1947, 190 coeds moved into West 
Landon which was still in the process of being completed. 
Ninety of these coeds had moved in from the third floor 
of the Union where the living conditions were extremely 
overcrowded.

The new residents were pleased with their new home, 
but they had to contend with many inconveniences. The 
only entrance was the side door since the front was still 
unfinished. The coeds also had to do without a lounge 
and a buzzer system and they had to use the cafeteria and 
showers in another dorm.

West Landon

West Landon dormitory was fully completed in the fall 
of 1948. Each year East and West Landon join together 
in sponsoring a term party. This year the theme was 
Valentine’s Day and the dining room was decorated with 
hearts to carry out the title, “Cupid’s Dreamland.”

West Landon recently initiated a Korean Christmas plan 
to aid children in Korea. The coeds sent their donations 
to an American chaplain in Korea who, this year, put 
their contributions towards the building of a wing on a 
Korean orphanage.

West Landon coeds enjoy entering into campus activi­
ties and are usually outstanding in intramural sports. This 
year they worked with the Psi U’s on Spartacade with a 
centennial theme of a symbolic birthday cake entitled 
“Chance in a Century.”

Scholarship plays an important part in the activities of 
the West Landon coeds who have a continuous contest 
between the three floors. The floor with the highest point 
average each term is treated to a special party by the 
other two floors.

Recently East and West Landon combined to publish 
a monthly newspaper, the Landonews. The publication 
contains news of pinnings, engagements and other items of 
interest about the coeds of Landon Hall.

East Mayo

Mary Mayo Hall has the distinction of being the oldest 
women’s dormitory on campus, first occupied in 1931 by 
246 coeds. On October 13, 1931, the new dorm was 
formally dedicated to the memory of the Michigan woman 
for whom it was named. The dedication was an elaborate 
ceremony with speeches by the governor, the president of 
the college and the son of Mary Mayo. Due to the lack 
of space, only one hundred guests attended the program, 
but many others listened to the dedication which was 
broadcast over the college radio station.

Mary Mayo was one of Michigan’s pioneer women who 
worked to further the education of the women of the state. 
Although she didn’t have the opportunity to attend college, 
Mary Mayo was instrumental in obtaining the first women’s 
dormitory at MSC, the Women’s Building, which is now 
Morrill Hall.

Michigan State couples are still saying goodnight in the same 
fashion as the first residents of East Mayo 24 years ago. This is 
the scene of many spring term serenades as romance blooms at MSC.

Pat Walters and Bob Hiscock as they enjoy a bridge game.

East Mayo coeds relax in the lounge after dinner. Heated discus­
sions often arise over which records to play, but everyone usually 
gets a turn at her favorite.

During the football season, the coeds of East Mayo 
sponsored a coffee hour and open house for parents and 
friends, which solved the problem of where to go after 
the games and helped the parents become better acquainted 
with college life.

This year the East Mayo coeds had an opportunity to 
watch their favorite television programs in the dormitory 
for the first time. The set was purchased fall term, through 
donations from the residents, and is much appreciated by 
the TV fans.

West 

M

The styles and customs of the West Mayo coeds have 
seen many changes since the first occupants in 1931. 
Despite the difference in years, the women of the 30’s 
were, like today’s coeds, busy with homework, extra-cur­
ricular activities and social events.

This year the biggest social event at West Mayo was 
the term party in the spring. Romantic decorations trans­
formed the dining room into a ballroom for the evening 
and an orchestra supplying the music.

The West Mayo House Council gathers in the lounge with their 
housemother, Mrs. Mastin, to discuss future dorm projects.

Barbara Wilson, Betsy Tompkins and Liz Ruse enjoy a game of 
scrabble in the dorm smoker which is also a quiet place to study.

Gathering around the piano in the lounge, for a few songs after 
dinner, is a favorite pastime of West Mayo coeds and their dates.

The phrase “man on the floor” became a familiar sound 
to West Mayo coeds winter term as they were awakened 
at early hours to have their rooms painted. Although it 
was inconvenient to do without their room for the day, 
the residents admitted it was well worth it.

The coeds joined forces with East Mayo in working on 
the UMOC contest. To raise funds to support their can­
didate, they bussed and serenaded in fraternity houses and 
staged an auction in their lounge. Their successful cam­
paign was climaxed with a paper drive.

In January of this year, Mrs. DeBeaubien, who was the 
housemother for the past ten years passed away. She will 
be greatly missed by the residents of West Mayo.

Rose Baron and Judy Haverty discuss their late-minute situation 
with Mrs. Mastin, who encourages coeds to talk over problems.

Marilyn Manochio, Marge Palmer and Nan Dickinson spend a 
few minutes relaxing in the laundry room before washing.

East Yakeley residents invite their favorite faculty members to 
dinner once each week. The hostesses and their guests relax in 
the dorm recreation room after dinner talking over classes.

Tree-trimming and skits presented by each floor sparked the 
evening as coeds of East and West Yakeley ushered in the season 
with a joint Christmas party.

Faculty row was once located on the present site of 
Yakeley dormitory. The women’s living unit was built 
to accomodate the increasing number of coeds on campus. 
The new dorm, which was completed in 1947, was built 
to house 400 coeds.

East Yakeley residents have a reputation for giving full 
support to campus activities. They tried their hand at 
mechanics for their homecoming display, which consisted 
of a large black shoe that was being shined by a rag kept 
in motion by a motor. The display was appropriately en­
titled, “Outshine Purdue.”

520

East Yakeley

A major project for East Yakeley residents is their 
plan for a well-supplied dorm library which received many 
additions from a book drive carried on among the coeds. 
“Bring a book from home,” was the slogan used to pro­

mote the drive.

Participating in the Lambda Chi Junior 500, in which 
coeds were recently invited to enter a cart, is a favorite 
activity with the coeds. They succeeded in winning second 
place in the 1954 race.

The dorm recreation room provides a perfect place for 
entertaining dates after an evening of dancing. During 
the week the residents hold informal birthday parties 
when they aren’t studying in the comfortable room.

East Yakeley coeds apply all of their artistic talents to their snow 
statue which was entered in the Inter-Dorm Snow Contest.

The coeds of East Yakeley were industrious enough to 
raise funds to purchase two television sets. This allows 
for a choice of programs and solves the problem of the 
TV room being overcrowded.

The dorm patio is transformed into a romantic setting 
spring term for the annual formal party. The warm 
weather also brings out those coeds interested in athletics, 
with softball and golf being their favorites.

521

West Yakeley

Yakeley dormitory was named in honor of Mrs. Elida 
Yakeley who was the first registrar of Michigan State, 
from 1908 until 1938. Coeds first moved into the dormi­
tory in 1947.

The residents of West Yakeley have established the tra­
dition of having their choir sing an answer when one of 
the coeds is serenaded. The song was picked from the 
entries submitted to a song writing contest in the dorm.
Fall term, West Yakeley succeeded in winning the 
scholarship trophy for the third time, thereby gaining per­
manent possession of the cup.

West Yakeley played host to the men of Bryan Hall 
at an open house one Sunday afternoon fall term. Enter­
tainment was provided by the coeds who enjoyed the 
event as much as their guests.

Nancy Dunnell and Vern Kinsie entertain other West Yakeley 
coeds with a duet in the dorm lounge after dinner.

Shirley York talk over the day’s activities at the dinner table.

The West Yakeley general council finds the dorm recreation room 
a good place to hold its informal meetings twice a month.

“A hundred years and still going strong,” was the title 
of the West Yakeley Homecoming display featuring vari­
ous sized rabbits. Despite the fact that they didn’t win with 
the idea, the coeds enjoyed working together on the display.
To celebrate the holiday season, residents of the dorm 
held a Christmas tree trimming party. Each coed filled 
a red stocking with candy and toys which was given to 
the Red Stocking Club of Lansing who sent them to 
underprivileged children.

523

Mason Hall coeds often visit their housemother Mrs. Gilhooley, 
whose apartment is a pleasant place to discuss the day’s activities 
which are always of interest to her. She encourages the coeds to

discuss their problems with her and gives advice whenever possible, 
whether it concerns grades or dating. This attitude is appreciated 
by the coeds who find her helpful.

Janet Julian, Janet Elsifor and Joy Dixon take advantage of their 
own grill for evening snacks in Mason dorm.

The desk in the Mason lobby is the center of much activity as men 
call for their dates and coeds receive their mail.

Mason Hall coeds have a wide variety of recreational 
facilities, as ping pong tables, television and their own 
grill provide relaxation between classes. Dates can be 
invited to the recreation room on weekends for dancing 
or studying.

New residents of Mason are often surprised at the long 
walk from the dorm to the grill, basketball games or 
dances at Kellogg, but there is little excuse for them to be 
late for classes at Berkey Hall.

Mason

Mason Hall has housed a variety of residents since it 
first opened its door to men in 1938. During World War 
II many buildings on campus were loaned to the govern­
ment for military purposes. In March, 1943, the 310th 
College Training Detachment took up residence in the 
Mason-Abbot dormitory for over a year.

In 1944, coeds moved into the dorm for two years. 
Then the campus found itself flooded with returning vet­
erans taking advantage of the G.I. education bill. To take 
care of this increased enrollment, coeds moved into the 
new women’s dorms, and even the Union, as Mason was 
turned over to the men.

Men continued to be housed in Mason Hall until the 
fall of 1952 when many moved into Shaw Hall. Enroll­
ment was still on the increase so the freshmen coeds that 
year were assigned to Mason Hall which has continued 
to remain a women’s dorm.

The Mason General Council holds its bi-weekly meets in the lounge 
to make decisions and pass rules on dormitory activities.

Joan Blizman, Carol Lindsay, Irene Paczynski and Marilyn Mc- 
Candless listen to the record collection in the Mason lounge.

The homecoming display, UMOC campaigning, the 
spartacade booth and the water carnival float kept Mason 
coeds busy throughout the year. These activities were 
supplemented with a successful intramural sports program 
by the more athletically minded residents who particularly 
enjoyed volleyball and bowling.

Winter term the coeds decorated the Union Ballroom 

for their annual term party, “Winter-Lude.”

South Williams

Studying, campus activities and dating all keep South 

Williams coeds busy throughout the year. Realizing the 

need for creating projects that would keep a close relation­

ship between the dorm residents, South Williams coeds 

established two dorm traditions in 1937.

As one of its traditions, South Williams honors its 

graduating seniors with an annual dinner. Following the 

dinner, the choir sings through the darkened halls of the 

dorm and each graduating senior is presented with a rose.

The sound of the buzzer brings Rita Walther and Betty Wygard 
to the phone which is usually busy in South Williams dormitory.

Pat Flanders and Ann Covalas remember to sign out before leav­
ing the dorm for the evening. Sign out sheets, distributed by 
AWS, enable coeds to let housemothers know of their destinations.

Room decorations aren’t complete without a mobile. Maryann 
Rundell and Doris Anderson have just completed their work of art.

An important South Williams tradition is the Christmas 

tea. Originally, the residents sponsored a holiday dinner, 

but since this is a tradition in most dorms, they wanted 

to celebrate with something special. North and South 

Williams decided to co-sponsor an annual tea the Sun­

day afternoon before the holidays.

Members of the administration are invited to the tea 

each year with a standing invitation going to President 

Hannah who has attended several times. Following the 

tea, guests and their hostesses gather in the lounge, bright 

with holiday decorations, to be entertained by dorm talent.

Curt Speck and Barbara Jones find the North Williams sunporch 
a quiet place to go over their history assignment together.

Williams was the second women’s dormitory to be 
built on campus, having been formally opened in 1939. 
The architect who designed all the women’s dorms con­
siders Williams to be the most artistic, since it is con­
structed on a hill and has a very unique entrance.

The dormitory was named for Sarah Langdon Williams, 
the wife of the first president of the college. Mrs. Wil­
liams was an outstanding educator and pioneered in 
higher education for women, at a time when public opinion 
was prejudiced against women in college.

528

North Williams

North Williams coeds have many athletic accomplish­

ments to their credit this year. They performed the un­

usual feat of winning both the basketball and volleyball 

championship. The coeds also won the scholarship trophy 

for attaining the highest average ever recorded for a 

women’s dormitory.

One of North Williams’ residents designed a seal for 

the dormitory and many of the coeds have had it printed 

on their personal stationery.

The dormitory worked with Phi Kappa Tau on Sparta- 

cade to produce a replica of birdland. This was accom­

plished with a jazz combo and feathered costumes com­

bined with colored lights.

Marilyn Krueger and Carol Terkelsen find that beverage and

The annual term party is a highlight on the North Wil­

liams’ social calendar. The coeds work jointly with South 

Williams, and weather permitting, the dance is held on 

the terrace adjoining the dining room.

North Williams’ residents are very active in campus 

projects. They participated in Water Carnival, the Inter­

dorm Sing and Frosty Frolics. The year’s activities came 

to a close with a dinner to honor those coeds who had 

received a 3.0 average or higher.

Abbot coeds submit suggestions for Spartacade booths. The 
carnival gives them a chance to become better acquainted.

The dorm library provides a quiet place for Mason coeds to 
study. The dorm has high scholarship from long hours of study.

Several groups have occupied Abbot Hall since it was 
opened to men in 1939. In the spring of 1943, the gov­
ernment’s 310th College Training Detachment moved into 
Abbot. Its year’s stay was ended as the Army Specialized 
Training Program students took up residence in the dorm 
until the close of spring term in 1945.

The following year coeds were housed in Abbot Hall, 
but the next year they moved out to make room for the 
flood of returning veterans. In 1953 Abbot was officially 
opened for coeds and has remained a women’s dorm.

The score is close as two Abbot coeds compete in the dorm ping 
pong tournament which always draws many spectators.

These Abbot residents don’t have to take a long walk to the Union. 
The dorm grill provides them with evening snacks between studies.

Abbot

Joyce Cosmann and Linda Erickson admire the UMOC trophies 
which were awarded to Abbot when their candidate received the 
greatest number of votes in the contest of 1954.

All-college activities give living unit residents an oppor­
tunity to work together and the coeds of Abbot Hall are 
no exception. This year they participated in Homecoming, 
Water Carnival, Spartacade and UMOC.

Fall term one of the first living unit newspapers was 
established. The Abbot Anecdotes publishes news of in­
terest to all Abbot residents with the feature article pertain­
ing to a special college event.

A Parents’ Day was sponsored by the coeds spring term. 
Following dinner at the dorm, a brief history of dormitory 
life, past and present, was given, complete with authentic 
costumes.

Birthday parties are a tradition in the dorm. The coed is given a 
surprise party and cake by her roommates and friends.

Abbot’s president Sue Worz conducts a meeting of the dorm council 
which decides the policies and supervises functions of the hall.

Nancy Converse seems rather disgusted with the noise being made 
by Andrea Moeck and Gail Kidnie chatting in the phone booth.

With the Quonset Village overflowing with veterans of 
World War II, Snyder Hall was rushed to near-completion 
for the opening of spring term in 1947.

When 653 veterans moved their things into Snyder Hall 
and went home for spring vacation, there were no doors 
on the lobby, dining room and kitchen. One precinct was 
without any furniture and the dorm lacked a grill, switch­
board service and curtains.

As spring vacation came to a close, the worst blizzard 
of the year occurred, stopping transportation and causing 
many students to be snowbound. There was only one 
telephone line into Snyder and late registrations had to 
be put into effect. When Snyder residents finally arrived, 
the rooms were furnished and the cafeteria was open for 
business.

Snyder coeds began rehearsing early this year for the annual Inter­
dorm sing. The singers were a familiar sight gathered about the 
piano in the lounge after dinner.

Snyder Hall is housing coeds for the first time this year 
and the coeds are already busy participating in many all­
college activities.

Fall term, the coeds held a Halloween party, “The Sny­
der Sneak,” in the lower lounge, for the residents and 
their dates. A Christmas party was given for a group of 
orphans from Lansing. Songs, games and movies were 
presented by the Snyder coeds, who gave each child a 
gift, following refreshments.

Blue Indigo” was the theme of the Snyder winter term 

party held in the lower lounge of the dorm.

Campbell dormitory was built in 1937 and named in 
honor of Louise Hathaway Campbell who is well-known 
for her organization of home economic groups in Michi­
gan. Mrs. Campbell was Dean of Women and Dean of 
Home Economics in 1923. From 1920 to 1930 she was 
the State Home Demonstration Leader of Home Eco­
nomic Extension in Michigan.

The residents of North Campbell found themselves 
caught in a whirl of dating, social activities and dorm 
projects this year. The athletically minded coeds spent 
many hours practicing for the intramural sports and man­
aged to be near the top in many contest finals.

North Campbell

North Campbell coeds have always had an outstanding 

record in campus activities. This year their Homecoming 
display, which was presented to a record crowd of alumni, 

won first place for the second time in three years. The 
display consisted of a large shipping crate with the arms, 

legs and head of a Purdue gridder extending from the 
excelsior. A large seal was perched on top of the crate 
balancing an MSC football on his nose with an invoice 
card reading “MSC versus Purdue, signed, sealed and 

delivered—do not handle with care.”

Another first place awarded to North Campbell was 
for its display in the snow sculpture contest. The winning 

entry was in the shape of an open book with a worm 
perched on its pages. Miss Bookworm symbolized the 
best way to prepare for exams.

Social events within the dormitory kept North Camp­
bell residents busy throughout the year. They celebrated 
Christmas with an annual tea for underprivileged children 

who were presented with gifts.

A series of dinners were staged by the coeds during 
the year, as exchange dinners with men’s dorms gave coeds 

an opportunity to make many new acquaintances. Faculty 

and 3.0 dinners completed the list of social events for the 

residents of North Campbell.

The Gilchrist coeds used abstract designs and mobiles 
to set the scene for their annual term party. In keeping 
with the decorations, the party was entitled “Imagination.” 
Intermission entertainment was provided by talent from 
the dorm.

Gilchrist

Gilchrist dormitory, which was open in 1948 for 150 
coeds, is the newest women’s dorm on campus and the 
only one that is not divided into two separate units. The 
site of Gilchrist Hall was originally the location of Presi­
dent Snyder’s home which was later used for the hospital 
and then for an annex of Williams Hall.

The dormitory was named for Mrs. Maude Gilchrist 
who was honored at a reception given to celebrate the 
opening. Mrs. Gilchrist was Dean of Women’s courses in 
1901 and later appointed Dean of the Home Economics 
Department.

Sanford coeds raid the refrigerator for an evening snack. The 
residents of the co-ops plan and prepare all meals.

A little harmonizing after dinner puts Rochdale coeds in the 
mood for studying. The co-ops are known for high scholarship.

The Michigan State women’s co-ops are representative 
of a plan originated approximately ten years ago. It arose 
in answer to the coed’s request for an opportunity to live 
in a more home-like atmosphere where they could gain 
experience in cooperative living.

Originally there were 10 houses on campus which have 
since been replaced by the women’s dorms. There are 
now four co-op houses located in East Lansing.

Because of the limited number of residents, the co-ops 
found that working together was advisable and formed 
the co-op league. Spring term the houses participate in 
an annual picnic and sponsor an all-college dance.

The coeds are noted for their cooking ability. Faculty 
members and residents of men’s co-ops are often enter­
tained by the coeds and have never been known to refuse 
an invitation to dinner.

A community telephone conversation is in session as Robinson 
coeds relax after housecleaning duties divided among residents.

Dinner time gives Concord residents an opportunity to discuss 
the day’s activities with their housemother Mrs. Lotta MacKintosh.

Alpha Chi Sigma traces its history back to the founding 
of the Michigan State College Chemistry Club in the fall 
of 1925 by graduate students in chemistry. Charter mem­
bers of the club included all the chemistry department 
instructors. In 1926, the club became Chi Rho.

On December 8, 1928, the Chi Rho’s received a charter 
as the Alpha Upsilon chapter of Alpha Chi Sigma, national 
professional chemistry fraternity.

Originally the chapter headquarters were in the base­
ment of Kedzie Chemical Laboratory, but soon the mem­
bers rented an apartment to use for fraternity business. 
Recently they acquired their own house on Evergreen 
Avenue.

When Alpha Upsilon chapter was installed, it was only 
a professional fraternity. In 1954, the chapter officially 
became a social-professional fraternity. The group was 
then admitted to the Inter-Fraternity Council.

Over 24 years ago, Alex Cohen, prominent Lansing 
businessman, made a weekly visit to Wells Hall, carrying 
with him a sack of apples. He was happily greeted by 
five Wells Hall residents who enjoyed with him an evening 
of song and laughter which made the young men feel 
more at home.

From these informal gatherings, the Alpha Literary 
Society was organized. This society later became Chi 
chapter of Alpha Epsilon Pi.

A formal induction ceremony on April 8, 1934, gave 
AEPi official recognition on the MSC campus. The fra­
ternity members immediately began planning to purchase 
their own chapter house.

At first they lived in a frame house on Elm Place but 
continually sought to find a newer house. In 1954, their 
dream was realized when they moved into their present 

location.

Mr. Cohen has continued to advise the chapter.

It was mainly through the efforts of an Alpha Gamma 
Rho member from the University of Minnesota that the 
society of Beta Sigma Alpha, meaning Bachelor of Science 
in Agriculture, was founded.

The seven men in this original organization intended to 
petition Alpha Gamma Rho for membership, but for the 
time being had to hold their meetings and initiations in 
an attic room in Wells Hall. The group continued to 
grow and expand and pushed their petition with AGR.

In 1921, the petition of 15 men of this group was 
accepted and on April 14, 1922, the Tau chapter of Alpha 
Gamma Rho was initiated.

AGR 

primarily a fraternity for students interested in 
agriculture, although certain other students are admitted 
to membership. AGR’s are quite prominent in agriculture 
activities, such as stock judging teams, agriculture clubs 
and Agriculture Council. AGR stock judging teams have

Congratulations are in order for Alpha Phi Alpha this 
year. In 1954 the members’ six-year-old dream finally 
came true when the fraternity moved into its own resi­
dence on Elm Place.

Alpha Phi Alpha was founded at Michigan State in 1948 
when seven charter members were initiated into Gamma 
Tau chapter of the national fraternity.

This year, Alpha Phi Alpha’s have been directing their 

efforts toward remodeling their house.

Alpha Phi Alpha first gained recognition on campus by 
the athletic performances of its members. The fraternity’s 
entry in the Junior 500 won that race in 1952 and 1953, 
setting a new record. Three members of the fraternity 
have received All-American honors in football.

Athletic participation hasn’t hindered the fraternity’s 
scholastic standing however. Four times within the past 
six years, the fraternity has been awarded the scholarship 
cup of the Inter-Fraternity Council.

The Eclectic Literary Society, one of the oldest groups 
on campus, was founded in 1877, and met for weekly 
sessions in old Williams Hall.

In 1906, the “Tic’s” built their own house which was 
the first fraternity house on the MAC campus. The big 
ballroom on the third floor of the house was used as the 
meeting place. The members would meet there once a 
day and one of them would read his assigned literary 
report. The other members would discuss it and then 
grade him on it.

The “Tic’s” continued to grow and expand, taking on 
more and more the character of a social organization. In 
April, 1940, the society was initiated as the Epsilon Eta 
chapter of Alpha Tau Omega. However the ATO’s have 
continued to remember their Tic heritage by calling their 
chapter publication, “Tic Tacs.”

When the group joined ATO, a new atmosphere pre­
vailed in the ballroom. Instead of literary reports, chapter 
meetings and social affairs are held there.

The Beta chapter members have good reason to return 
early to the campus fall term. The first weekend of the 
term, the fraternity co-sponsors the Delta Street Shuffle, 
the first all-college dance of the year.

The Shuffle was first presented seven years ago after 
a pep rally. Since then it has been annually repeated with 
crowds of students dancing on Delta Street, visiting the 
Beta and Phi Tau houses and gulping down free donuts 
and cups of coffee by the hundreds.

Although relatively new to the Michigan State campus, 
Beta Theta Pi is one of the oldest of the national frater­
nities. It was founded in 1839 and the Gamma Psi chapter 
was initiated at Michigan State in 1950.

In commemoration of its Miami University founding, 
the Beta’s, with the MSC chapters of Sigma Chi and Phi 
Delta Theta, also founded at Miami, sponsor the annual 
Miami Triad dance which brings together these groups 
which were originally organized more than 100 years ago.

The history of the Michigan State chapter of Delta Chi 
dates back to one of the first fraternal organizations on 
campus, the Union Literary Society. This society was 
founded in 1876 and had as its chapter house the old 
journalism building.

The Ae Theon Literary Society was founded in 1917, 
meeting in Wells Hall. The society continued in existence, 
even though the entire chapter enlisted in the army in 
World War I and served together in France.

In 1930, the Ae Theon Society moved into the present 
Delta Chi house and the following year, it merged with 
the Union society. The combined group then petitioned 
Delta Chi for a charter, and were installed as a chapter 
of Delta Chi on January 5, 1935.

During World War II, the United States army used the 
chapter house as a residence and the members had to move 
into dormitories. In 1948, the Delta Chi’s moved back into 
their house and have remained there ever since.

A room in old Williams Hall was the meeting place of 
the Aurorian Literary Society when it was founded in 
1905 by eight students who were interested in broadening 
their education through literary pursuits.

In 1920, the Atheniums joined with the Aurorians to 
form the nucleus of a group which petitioned Delta Sigma 
Phi for a charter. On January 13, 1923, Alpha Pi chapter 
was installed and Delt Sig history at Michigan State began.

The fraternity selected a site on the banks of the Red 
Cedar River and built their present house in 1933. Since 
its founding the house has established many traditions.
One of these traditions is the annual Sailors’ Ball, a 
party set in a nautical scene. The interior of the house 
is decorated to give the appearance of a large pool and 
outside the house, there are numerous flags and a large 
bell which keeps tolling to give a marine atmosphere.

From a room in Berkey Hall, where pledging and meet­
ings were first held, to 327 Hillcrest, the Gamma Kappa 
chapter of Delta Sigma Pi has progressed. It became the 
78th chapter of the national social-professional fraternity 
on October 29, 1949.

Organized on campus as a local business fraternity, 
Delta Pi Sigma, the young group purchased the old Delta 
Gamma house in the summer of 1951 and made it ready 
for chapter occupancy the next fall.

As a professional fraternity, Delt Sig Pi combines a 
schedule of programs supplementing their major interest 
with a full social calendar. 
Industrial tours and guest 
speakers in the fields of business and commerce give 
members a chance to supplement their college learning.
Outstanding among the social activities is the Rose Ball, 
a formal dinner dance at which the chapter’s Rose Queen 
is honored. Other parties and desserts fill out the members’ 
social life.

Iota chapter of Delta Tau Delta has the unique honor 
of being the oldest and yet one of the newest fraternities 
on the Michigan State campus. The Delt badge was first 
worn here as early as May 3, 1872, just 13 years after the 
national fraternity was established.

The college provided rooms in old Williams Hall, which 
were furnished for use as a chapter room and meeting 
hall. However, the chapter’s charter was surrendered in 
1897 when the operation of fraternities was temporarily 
suspended here.

558

Iota chapter had edited the first Delta Tau Delta song- 
book, and the chapter’s publication, “The Chronicle,” was 
one of the first newspapers of the fraternity.

The Delt’s again took their place among the Michigan 
State Greeks on February 28, 1947. The rejuvenated 
chapter began with 32 actives and has consistently grown. 
Iota’s first home was on Grand River Avenue, until 1953, 
when it moved into the present chapter house, which was 
completely remodeled.

In the spring term of 1947 three Delta Upsilon mem­
bers who had transferred to Michigan State formed Delta 
Rho, a local fraternal group. The group, meeting tempo­
rarily in Berkey Hall, had the intention of petitioning 
Delta Upsilon for a charter.

At its convention in 1948, Delta Upsilon accepted the 
petition of Delta Rho, an unprecedented act for the con­
servative fraternity, because the local, not yet two years 
old, didn’t even have a house.

On January 15, 1949, the Michigan State chapter of 
DU was initiated with 35 active members. 
In September 
of that year, the chapter leased their present home and 
began the job of furnishing and remodeling it into a 
fraternity house.

In September, 1953, the DU’s were able to purchase 
this house and they began work on the exterior to beautify 
their grounds.

The chapter now includes about 70 members.

FarmHouse fraternity was founded at the University 
of Missouri in 1905. As Michigan State celebrates its 
centennial this year, FarmHouse observes its fiftieth anni­
versary as a fraternal organization.

At Michigan State, FarmHouse was organized in 1932 
for students majoring in veterinary medicine and agricul­
ture. The local chapter affiliated with the national in 1936. 
In that same year, Mrs. Nell Bartlett came to FarmHouse 
as the first fraternity housemother at Michigan State.

Since the fraternity’s inception at Michigan State, Farm- 
House has ranked first among the Greeks in scholarship 
for 11 out of 18 years, leading the fraternities for the 
past six years. FarmHouse is represented on the Michigan 
State staff by 43 alumni.

In the spring of 1954, the Michigan Association of 
FarmHouse, recognizing the growing needs of the frater­
nity, purchased property on Bogue Street as a building 

site for a new home.

Kappa Sigma was chartered at Michigan State on De­
cember 15, 1937. The Hermian Literary Society, a group 
which had been active on campus since 1915, had re­
quested a charter from the Kappa Sigma national organi­
zation, and when it was granted, the group became the 
Delta Psi chapter.

The fraternity has retained in its house the original 
Hermian chapter hall, but has remodeled the house to 
make it more comfortable for the members.

Kappa Sigma has always participated actively in campus 
and social activities. Among the annual social events 
which the fraternity sponsors is the western party at which 
members and their dates come dressed in cowboy cos­
tumes.

Another important activity for the Kappa Sig’s is the 
Christmas party planned every year for underprivileged 
children in the community.

After fraternities had been banned from Michigan State 
for a period of approximately 25 years, Lambda Chi Alpha 
was the first national fraternity to return to the campus 
on October 14, 1922. On that day the Forensic Literary 
Society and the Ulyssians combined to form the 60th 
chapter of Lambda Chi.

The local’s first home was a rented house on East 
Michigan Avenue. In 1920 the present site was pur­
chased and the fraternity built its house in 1927.

566

The Lambda Chi’s have originated two important MSC 
activities, the Greek Feast and the Junior 500. The Greek 
Feast, first sponsored by the fraternity in 1947, has been 
turned over to the IFC as an all fraternal function. The 
chapter continues to sponsor the Junior 500, also con­
ceived in 1947. This all-college event gives living units 
a chance to compete for trophies in both humorous and 
speed divisions.

Michigan Beta of Phi Delta Theta was founded in 1873 
as one of the first chapters of a national fraternity on the 
Michigan State campus. It later went inactive and was 
reorganized on May 22, 1932.

The Phi Delt’s present chapter house at 626 Cowley 

Road was completed in 1931 and houses 38 men.

One of the most famous of the chapter’s alumni is Dr. 
Frank S. Kedzie who became president of Michigan State.

The newest achievement for the Phi Delt’s is the spon­
sorship of a trophy awarded to the fraternity house which 
donates 100% in the all-college blood drive. This “Bleed 
the Greeks” program was inaugurated in 1954 and has 
proved to be an incentive in blood donations.

Traditional social activities of the fraternity include the 
Miami Triad and the annual Upson Downs party. The 
Phi Delt’s also have an annual term party.

Theta Sigma, a local fraternity at Michigan State which 
was originally founded in 1907, was installed on Novem­
ber 7, 1954, as Michigan Beta chapter of Phi Kappa Psi.
When Michigan State opened its doors to Phi Psi in 
1953, Theta Sigma immediately sought installation as the 
local chapter. In less than a year, the men expanded their 
membership to 33, bought and rejuvenated a chapter 
house, successfully petitioned the Phi Psi Grand Arch 
Council and managed in the meantime to win a first in 
the Junior 500.

570

Beginning on a financial shoestring, the men financed 
the purchase of their house by selling bonds to them­
selves, their families and interested friends and alumni. 
Support for their petition was given by an enthusiastic 
Phi Psi chapter at the University of Michigan, which had 
long hoped for a good chapter at Michigan State.

With installation ceremonies over, the fraternity mem­
bers turned back to the duties of finishing the remodeling 
of their house and to the task of winning more trophies.

Good evening, Skull House.” Have you ever heard 
these words coming through your telephone receiver and 
thought you had the wrong number? You didn’t. It was 
merely the Beta Delta chapter of Phi Kappa Sigma frater­
nity answering with the traditional Phi Kap greeting.

Since 1941, when the “Skulls,” as they are called, came 
on Michigan State’s campus, many interesting things have 
happened at the chapter house on Albert Street.

In 1950, a Phi Kappa Sigma became the first Ugliest 
Man on Campus, an annual all-college charity drive. Two 
years later the chapter initiated the Michigan attorney 
general as an honorary member of the fraternity.

Phi Kappa Sigma, which began in the East more than 
100 years ago, has chapters at most large universities. 
The local chapter has maintained an active membership 
of about 50 members since its initiation.

The Phi Kappa Tau’s have the distinction of being the 
only fraternity at Michigan State which owns and occupies 
two houses. The two buildings, located next to each 
other on Delta Street, give the chapter a chance to have 
most of its members living together. In the spring of 1956, 
the Phi Tau’s will begin building a new house on the site 
of the annex. This will give them more space for the 
growing chapter.

The Dorian Literary Society, founded in 1915, was 
granted the charter for a Michigan State chapter of Phi 
Kappa Tau in 1924. An important tradition for the chap­
ter is the choosing of the Phi Tau Dream Girl at the term 
party. The selection is made from among the dates of 
the brothers. Another annual event for the Phi Tau’s is 
the co-sponsorship of the Delta Street Shuffle, at the 
beginning of fall term, with their neighbors, the Beta’s.

Pi Kappa Phi emerged from the Orphic Literary Society 
which was organized in the spring of 1917. The charter 
members were students working their way through college 
who met on the top floor of old Williams Hall.

Just as the society was gaining strength, it received a 
setback because most of its members had to go into the 
army. But after the war, the remaining Orphics worked to 
rebuild the society’s membership, and to petition a na­
tional fraternity for affiliation.

In the spring of 1921 the society embarked on its largest 
project, buying a house. Each of the Orphics contributed 
an amount toward the cost and they were successful in 
purchasing the old Pi Kap site.

As the society grew in strength and in activity on the 
campus, the possibilities of national affiliation became 
more real. In 1925, the Orphic Literary Society was 
initiated as Alpha Theta chapter of Pi Kappa Phi and the 
members continued their work under the name Pi Kap.

Psi Upsilon, represented on Michigan State’s campus by 
Epsilon Nu chapter, was established here in 1943. One of 
the oldest social fraternities in the United States, Psi U was 
founded in 1833 at Union College. In the past 122 years, 
30 active chapters have been installed, most of them in the 
east and the midwest.

The Epsilon Nu chapter grew out of the Hesperian Liter­
ary Society which was founded at Michigan State in 1888.

Psi U’s are most famous for their singing. For the past 
six years, the chapter has won the Inter-Fraternity Sing 
title, retiring two traveling trophies in the process.

The Epsilon Nu chapter is active in social affairs, too. 
Psi U’s sponsor a Fathers’ Day in the fall and a Mothers’ 
Day program in the spring term. The fraternity also opens 
its house to underprivileged children in the community at 

Christmas time.

This year was an important one in the history of Sigma 
Alpha Epsilon fraternity at Michigan State because it 
marks the fulfillment of a long range plan for a new house. 
The new chapter home, built on the same site as the old 
one, is the result of dreaming and planning by SAE’s for 
many years.

SAE was the sixth national fraternity to appear on the 
Michigan State campus. It originated in the Columbian 
Literary Society which was organized in 1892.

The State Board of Agriculture, MSC governing group, 
banned the Columbians in 1900 and it wasn’t until 1920 
that the Columbians petitioned to have the ban removed. 
They were successful and immediately reorganized.

At the same time, the Columbians petitioned to become 
a chapter of Sigma Alpha Epsilon. Their petition was 
accepted at the SAE convention of 1926 and in 1927, 
the Columbians were initiated as the fraternity’s Michigan 
Gamma chapter.

A double centennial celebration will be in order for 
the Michigan State Sigma Chi’s this year. Their national 
fraternity was organized at Miami University, Oxford, 
Ohio, in 1855, the same year Michigan State was founded.
The Sigma Chi tradition of electing a sweetheart each 
year began when two undergraduates at Albion College 
wrote the famous, “Sweetheart of Sigma Chi.” Since then, 
each Sig chapter has chosen a coed to receive this honor 
and to compete in the national selection of “Sweetheart.”

Thirteen years ago a local fraternity, Beta Chi, was 
desirous of becoming a chapter of Sigma Chi. After peti­
tioning the national fraternity, the members worked all 
summer to make their house presentable for the inspection 
of the national officers.

Their hard work was rewarded in November, 1942, 
when they received a telegram advising that Beta Chi 
would be accepted into Sigma Chi. In December, 1942, 
the members were installed as Gamma Psi chapter.

Sigma Nu, founded at the Virginia Military Institute in 
1869, came to Michigan State in 1934 when the Epsilon 
Rho chapter was organized from the Olympic and Euno- 
mian literary societies.

The Sigma Nu house is one of the most modern build­
ings in the campus area. Designed to be functional, yet 
beautiful, the house is proudly decorated by the brothers 
each Homecoming with usually a winning display. Before 
they moved into their new house in 1951, the Sigma Nu’s 
lived on Abbott Road.

Traditional activities highlight the Sigma Nu calendar. 
Each spring there is the White Rose formal, a dinner dance. 
Another eagerly anticipated event is the Blackfoot-White- 
foot Ball, sponsored jointly with Alpha Tau Omega.

Help Week is another activity of the chapter. Fraternity 
members work throughout the community on various serv­
ice projects. On White Rose Sunday, Sigma Nu members 
attend church together in memory of their departed 
brothers.

Fall of 1954 gave Theta Chi fraternity members an 
opportunity to see two years of planning for a new house 
come into reality. With the help of their alumni, the 
Theta Chi’s were able to begin construction in January, 
1954, and in September, move in.

Beta Zeta chapter of Theta Chi was founded at Michi­
gan State on June 10, 1939. The charter members were 
selected from the Delphic Literary Society, a local organi­
zation which traces its history back until 1908.

586

Several traditions have been established since the initia­
tion of the chapter. One of the favorites of the Theta 
Chi’s is the annual football game with the Kappa Delta s. 
The game is followed by an exchange luncheon at which 
a trophy is presented to the winning house.

With the new house, quite appropriately, came a new 
custom. A crest of the fraternity was inlaid in the floor 
of the foyer, and no one is allowed to step on it at any time.

The Theta Xi’s got a new mascot this year. Scamper, a dachs­
hund, came to the fraternity in winter term and immediately 
became friendly with all the brothers and others on campus.

Winter weather means that Theta Xi pledges must clean off the

Theta Xi at Michigan State originated as the Delta 
Club, the last remaining local fraternity on the campus. 
The Delta Club was admitted to the Inter-Fraternity Coun­
cil as a local fraternity in 1948. Lacking a house, the 
members met in the Quonset Village.

In 1950 the Delta Club was accepted for membership 
in Theta Xi fraternity and was installed as the Alpha 
Omega chapter. The members immediately turned their 
attention to the problem of purchasing a house.

This task was not without its obstacles. The deter­
mined Theta Xi’s, short of funds, worked on various proj­
ects to raise money. They ran an ad in the State News 
entitled “No Task Too Large,” and they offered their 
services as escorts for a rate of $2.00 plus expenses.

Each member cooperated in raising money and in 
bringing in new members. Their combined efforts were 
successful and they were able to purchase their present 
chapter house.

Kellogg Center was the scene of a banquet January 8, 
1955 which celebrated the installation of a new MSC 
fraternity, Triangle.

This fraternity is a social-professional organization for 
engineers and architects. The idea for it originated in 
1953 at a meeting of the Engineering Council. At the 
end of 1953, the Triangle Club, including 19 members, 
petitioned to become a chapter of Triangle national 
fraternity.

590

In December, 1953, the national fraternity helped the 
Triangle club purchase and remodel the chapter house. 
Generous donations were made by Triangle chapters at 
other campuses so that the house could be furnished. The 
engineers lived on a cooperative basis, doing their own 
cooking and housekeeping.

With their acceptance into the national fraternity in 
1955, and their recognition as a fraternity at Michigan 
State, the Triangle members have turned to the task of 
building up the chapter.

New Triangle’s Warren Hecksei, Rick Rohrbach, Jim Schoen- 
relver, Neil Edison, Carl Friebel, Roger Riewald inspect the fra­
ternity s coat of arms. Fraternity lore kept them busy this year.

In the fall of 1946 a small local fraternity appeared on 
the Michigan State campus. Its name, Sigma Zeta, is 
rarely mentioned or even remembered by most today, but 
the work of this local left its mark in the form of Beta 
Epsilon chapter of Zeta Beta Tau fraternity.

Feeling the need for another fraternity, a group of 
students organized Sigma Zeta. The group grew in strength 
and soon petitioned Zeta Beta Tau to become a colony.

On November 14, 1947, Sigma Zeta became the 40th 
chapter of ZBT. In 1950, after living in a smaller, less 
adequate house, the chapter members were able to move 
into their present home. But things haven’t stopped there. 
The ZBT’s have an ever-growing building fund which they 
hope to use in the near future to purchase a new house.
Zeta Beta Tau is quite active in social functions, plan­

ning term parties and record dances for the members.

The Butterfield General Council holds its meetings in the lounge 
as members, who represent each precinct, discuss dorm projects.

Butterfield Hall, completing its second year on campus, 
had a very unique beginning. Opened fall term 1953, 
parts of the dorm were not finished as the new residents 
moved in. Many of them remained in the quonsets until 
late November.

Brody Hall, the dining unit for the Harrison Road liv­
ing units, was not completed at that time which meant 
that the men had to eat in dining rooms converted from 
the Red Cedar School.

Centennial year turned part of Butterfield into a hotel 
as it served as an annex for Kellogg Center. Wing A was 
used to house the large number of campus visitors. Butter­
field also houses visiting athletic teams.

These inconveniences didn’t handicap the activities of 
Butterfield residents. A new practice was begun this year 
as the men established “strictly stag” dinners. Each pre­
cinct meets for dinner one evening a week in the small 
dining room of Brody.

In the spacious lounge, the Bryan Hall choir rehearses for its 
next appearance. As does each men’s dorm, Bryan boasts a 
vocal group which gives residents a chance to sing both for

pleasure and in competition with other choirs. The culmination 
of the choir’s work is the Inter-Dorm sing.

Bryan Hall, one of the three new Harrison Road living 
units, will complete its first year with many traditional 
activities established. Scholastic achievement has been 
emphasized through scholarship dinners each term for 
the top 40 men. Placed in the trophy case of Bryan’s 
lobby is a plaque inscribed with the names of all 4.0 
students. Lists are also posted of those earning a 3.0 
and above.

Bryan is justly proud of its 30-member choir and 
its student director. The group received invitations to 
sing at the Harrison Hop, the Sno-Ball and several Christ­
mas programs.

The Bryan general council meets to plan dorm activities and set 
dorm policy. Each precinct is represented on the council which

also includes the resident assistants. The resident advisor is 
sponsor of the council.

Bryan Hall residents honored their housemother with a surprise 
party. She received gifts from the men for her friendly nature.

The Bryan general council is responsible for many of 
the dormitory activities. Unlike many living units, the 
council elects new officers at the beginning of each term 
to insure a constant source of new ideas and projects for 
the large number of men it represents. The resident 
assistant and two men from each precinct compose the 
24-man council.

It was the council which initiated the idea of choosing 
a Man of the Week from Bryan residents, in the same 
manner that the Senior of the Week is chosen by Senior 
Council.

The Fine Arts room in the new dormitory is a nice place to relax 
for Bruce Anderson, Don Richards, Jon Friday, Jacques Amiel.

The Harrison Road Hop, a dance for Bryan, Rather and Butter- 
held residents, chose these smiling coeds as queens of the dance.

The Phillips’ fireplace makes a comfortable atmosphere as a 
group of residents take time out to relax after the dinner hour.

Plenty of free advice and good natured ribbing are the specialties 
of these men who see their dorm mates go to the Spinsters’ Spin.

Time to hit the books, as Bob Jacoby and Hal Paul buckle down 
to their studies in preparation for those all-important finals.

The Snyder-Phillips Hall was built during World War 
II in anticipation of the flood of veterans returning to 
college. 
In order to begin construction as quickly as 
possible, the same architectural plans for Mason-Abbot 
Hall were used, with certain changes to provide larger 
dining rooms and lower lounges and for additional stu­
dent rooms.

Snyder-Phillips was opened for men students in 1947. 
It is a double unit dormitory, the two halls being served 
from the same kitchen in the center, but each having its 
own dining room.

Phillips

Phillips is the only men’s dormitory adjacent to a 
women’s residence hall. To accentuate the friendly atmos­
phere between the two halls, a mass-exchange dinner was 
initiated fall term and is held every two weeks.

A Christmas party was held for underprivileged chil­
dren from Lansing. Two Christmas trees, surrounded 
with gifts, decorated the dormitory lounge. After refresh­
ments were served, Santa Claus appeared and gave each 
child a toy and a pair of mittens. Following dinner at 
the dorm, the older boys of the groups were taken to see 
a Michigan State hockey game.

The residents of Phillips Hall sponsored record dances 
throughout the year. A fireside get-together was held 
and fellows brought their dates to pop corn and to dance. 
A semi-formal dance at Brody Hall concluded Phillips’ 
activities for the year.

The switchboard room is buzzing with activity as the men sign 
up for dorm tournaments and take telephone calls.

A close-up inspection of the aquarium in the Phillips lounge is 
conducted by Joe Cunnley and Don Lethened.

Phillips participates in many college activities including 
Homecoming, Water Carnival and Spartacade. The inter­
dorm athletic events are always well represented by the 
dorm residents, and fall term, precinct six placed second 
in football contests.

Winter term, interest was centered on the ping pong 
tournament for residents of men’s dorms. Phillips placed 
second in the final play-offs. Winter term also brought an 
active interest in basketball, bowling and swimming.

George Stepanovic, West Shaw president, conducts a meeting of 
the dorm general council. This group is composed of representa-

tives from each precinct who initiate dorm policies and plan the 
social activities desired by the residents.

When West Shaw first opened in the fall of 1949, 
there were no screens on the windows, which provided an 
excellent convenience for emptying wastebaskets for the 
mischievous residents. There were no chairs, which ham­
pered studying at the one desk in each room.

The dorm cafeteria needed several minor additions 
which meant that the residents had to eat their meals in 
the short course cafeteria.

Bruce Meredith, Dick Lyon, Dave Wenger and Wayne Robertson 
admire the newest addition to their colorful room decorations.

Willie Salisbury and Charles Baker make plans for the weekend 
as they are fortunate enough to find an outside telephone line.

Jerry Cryderman, Bob Frey and Richard Dettloff take time out 
from studying to give some serious attention to the comic strips.

West Shaw residents joined with East Shaw in turning 
their Friday night record dance into a tree trimming 
party just before the Christmas holidays. The men and 
their dates decorated the huge tree in the center of the 
lower lounge and concluded the evening by singing carols 
and roasting marshmallows.

Shaw men take advantage of their beautiful lower lounge 
which can be turned into a spacious ballroom by opening 
the partition separating the two sides. Fall and spring 
term the residents held semi-formal parties in the lounge.
Great emphasis is placed on sports by the residents of 
West Shaw. Intramural football, swimming, basketball 
and tennis are among their specialties.

West Shaw residents practice their selection for the Men’s Inter- 
Dorm sing, spring term. Doug Hoopingarner puts the group

through its paces as the date of the sing draws near and rehearsals 
are scheduled every evening.

Sunday evenings between five and six, the men of East 
Shaw gather in the living room for a “Hi-Fi” record con­
cert. Music from the classics, light opera and the concert 
stage provided pleasant relaxation for the residents.

East Shaw men joined with other men’s residence halls 
and invited members of the faculty of the Basic College 
and their wives to dinner. The residents planned the 
evening’s entertainment and acted as hosts and guides for 
tours of the building.

The dormitory enters all campus activities. In sports, 
East Shaw won the handball championship and placed 
second in the basketball and bowling competition. The 
residents were especially proud of their Christmas City 
display, an artistic replica of the Memorial Chapel includ­
ing the stained glass windows.

Jim Taggert, Bill Lewis and Jack Grenard examine the tape

and Bob Lawrence. Mrs. McAlpin is resident hostess.

City display. The exhibit occupied an island in Grand River.

Dormitory precincts frequently sponsor exchange dinners with 
coeds from women’s living units. Sally Novak, Douglas Reilly, 
Irene Schiele and Jim Barnebee wait for food in the line.

A resident assistant in the dorm can be a big help when exam 
time approaches. Phil Mielock helps Bob Houser and Ray Pierce.

East Shaw was opened in the spring of 1950. It boasts 
that it is part of the largest dormitory in the world as 
the entire Shaw unit houses 1500 men under one roof.
Each side of the dormitory has its own dining room 
that is separated by a folding partition which can be opened 
for special occasions. The employees’ dining room is 
used for precinct parties and for exchange dinners with 
the women’s residence halls.

In the summer, Shaw Hall remains in use. It is the 
site of various conferences held on campus, such as the 
State 4-H show.

Checking dormitory and all-college events, Edward Murray, Harold 
Milton and A1 Fowlkes look over the bulletin board m the lounge.

The first occupants of Rather Hall were the Boy’s State 
representatives visiting the campus during the final week 
of spring term, 1954. Last August the football team and 

the band occupied the dorm.

Rather was officially opened on September 19, 1954, as 
a men’s living unit. The new residence began to partici­
pate in many all-college activities. The Inter-Dorm dance 
held at Brody Hall was well attended by Rather men, and 
spring term activities of the hall included entries in both 
Spartacade and the Junior 500.

604

Rather

Cooperating with Bryan and Butterfield dormitories, 
Rather sponsored the Harrison Hop, so named because 
these dorms are located on Harrison Road. The dance 
was held at Brody Hall on November 20 with nearly 600 
couples attending. A queen, elected by the men of Rather, 
was crowned during the evening. Corsage favors were 
given to the coeds and a 10-piece orchestra provided the 
dance music.

Taking time out from last minute cramming for finals, 
all three Harrison Road dorms planned a Christmas party 
for underprivileged children. The party was held just 
before Christmas vacation in the main lounge of Brody. 
Each living unit contributed in some way to the children’s

Participation in intramural sports proved successful for 
the new dormitory. A precinct from Rather won the Harri­
son Road dorm championship in touch football and the 
team was honored at the end of the season at a banquet 
held in Brody Hall.

Homecoming weekend the main entrance to Rather 
boasted a gigantic display. The theme of course was “Beat 
the Boilermakers.” Winter term the Rather Hall men 
participated in sports and sponsored a winning basketball 
team.

co-operatives

Ulrey House, founded in 1946, was named in honor 
of Dr. Orion Ulrey, an MSC faculty member and one of 
the initiators of the cooperative movement on campus.
Exchange dinners with Sanford and Concord houses 
gave the men of Ulrey an opportunity to make new 
acquaintances this year. The members of the co-op are 
also active in the Inter Co-op Council and participated 
in the Co-Hop, the inter co-op dance.

Ulrey residents are especially interested in sports, and 
participate in both the intramural and independent ath­
letic leagues. They won the all-sports trophy during 1953- 
54 and won the independent free throw contest this year, 
as well as being runners-up in IM football.

sports trophy from the mantel for another polishing.

Beal

Beal House, which was established in 1949, is the 
youngest of the Michigan State co-ops. It was founded 
by 21 veterans who, with other Beal alumni, attend a 
picnic given in their honor by the house residents.  One 
of the events highlighting this annual affair is a baseball 
game with the alumni challenging the members.  The 
alumni also enjoy a more formal atmosphere when they 
attend a Homecoming dinner and dance, fall term.

This year was most successful for Beal men. They 
won the co-op block championships in football and basket­
ball. The residents still found time for studying and 
received recognition for their academic endeavor by win­
ning the scholarship trophy awarded to the men’s living 
unit with the highest scholastic average.

Howland

Veterans interested in an economical way of living 
founded Howland House in 1948. They purchased and 
remodeled a house and originated a plan of operation.
The house is organized under a system which requires 
each resident to work in the house six hours per week. 
The work details, consisting of cooking, cleaning and 
managing, are assigned to residents according to their 
class schedules.

Assisted by two college advisors, Howland House, an 
independent organization, operates on a non-profit basis. 
The members find that close cooperation with other co­
ops is beneficial. They frequently entertain with exchange 
dinners and desserts and work jointly in all-college activi­

ties with the other co-ops.

To keep alumni posted on noteworthy events, the men 
print an annual news bulletin telling of their many activi­
ties and progress. Of primary interest to both alumni and 
members are the plans for a new house which should be 

realized in the near future.

Bower

Hi neighbor! That’s what the men of Bower House 
were saying one Saturday, spring term, as they entertained 
their neighbors at a special luncheon. Fall term found 
them entertaining again, only this time the event was an 
exchange dinner with the coeds from Robinson House.
Dinners and luncheons didn’t keep the men of Bower 
from concentrating on their studies. By winning the 
scholarship cup fall term, they added Bower’s name to 
the cup for the third consecutive time, only to find they 
couldn’t have permanent possession of it. Due to a new 
ruling by the ICC, the cup goes to the co-op whose name 
is on it most frequently when the name band is filled.
Participation in intramural sports kept many of the 
men of Bower busy while others turned to hunting. A 
group of fifteen took a deer hunting trip to Manistee fall 
term, and came home with the game for a tasty venison 
dinner.

Bower members spent much time remodeling their 
house. Painting and plastering were the main tasks and 
those who had never done this kind of work before soon 
learned.

Fred Kuester, Pat Pennoni and Jerome DeRidder find that their 
chess game requires deep concentration in order to win.

Elsworth House members and their dates relax with refreshments 
during the co-op’s annual term party. The dance, held in the 
house, is a big social event for the men.

The men of Elsworth celebrated two important birth­
days in conjunction with Michigan State’s centennial. The 
organization celebrated its fifteenth anniversary and its 
fifth year in the new house.

Twenty-three students established the organization in 
1940, by agreeing to finance the house with individual 
loans of $100 plus weekly payments for room and board. 
Two weeks before school opened, they returned to re­
model the house and to buy furniture, equipment and 
supplies. The original site was sold to the city in 1950 
for use as a parking lot.

Elsworth men celebrated Christmas with a party among them­
selves. Highlighting the event was the exchange of gifts.

Tim Voorheis supplies soft background music on the accordion as 
co-op members entertain guests for dinner. These dinner pa 
are an 

important part of the social calendar for the

Elsivorth

The modern, functional Elsworth House was constructed in 1950 
through the efforts of house members and their sponsors.

Elsworth president Eugene Speller gives the house pin to a new 
member, James Beetham, at the fall term presentation ceremonies. 
Any male student interested in cooperatives applies for member­
ship through the house or Dean of Students’ office.

Elsworth House was named in honor of Mr. R. H. Els­
worth, former MSC staff member, who assisted in estab­
lishing many agricultural cooperative associations through­
out Michigan. Construction of the new house was started 
in the spring of 1950. Through the efforts of Mr. Charles 
Green, a Lansing realtor and honorary Elsworth member, 
the house was ready for occupancy fall term of that year.
Elsworth house is the only cooperative which has its 
own term party. The house also boasts that it is the only 
co-op which enters the Jr. 500, always in the humorous 
division. Other activities include exchange dinners with 
women’s co-ops and sororities and Sunday dinners with 
faculty members as special guests.

Twenty-two veterans used their own funds to start the 
Motts Cooperative House in 1947. The organization was 
named for Mr. George N. Motts, an MSC faculty member 
who was instrumental in establishing several of the co­
operative houses on campus.

This year was an important one for the residents of 
Motts Cooperative as they moved into a new house. The 
members invited their neighbors for dinner to get ac­
quainted and to promote good relations.

Living in a cooperative house is excellent training for 
leadership and for developing a sense of responsibility. 
A house manager is elected and is in charge of the overall 
management and gives work details to all the members. 
The men handle all their own cooking and house work. 
The cooperative is actually a corporation, owned and 
operated by the students themselves.

Motts awards an annual trophy to the members who 

has been outstanding in leadership and citizenship.

A midnight snack is enjoyed by Motts residents who prepare all 
of their own meals which means doing the dishes, too.

Hedrick

Hedrick, the first cooperative house in the United States, 
was founded at Michigan State in 1939, by 16 men stu­
dents. Its purpose was to provide social, cultural and 
economic advantages for its members. During the war 
years, the house was rented and after the war, as the male 
enrollment increased, it was reorganized by 30 veterans.
Over a year ago, their house burned and members have 
since been living in a temporary residence. Property has 
been purchased and plans are underway for the building 
of a new house on Haslett Road. It will be ready for 
occupancy sometime next fall.

The secret of successfully operating a co-op is constant 
cooperation, and membership is restricted to those male 
students who have shown they are willing to accept this 
responsibility. A schedule of work distribution is devised 
by the student house manager and by following this plan 
the house has a smooth operation.

Work doesn’t occupy all of their time however, as 
members participate in intramural sports and schedule 
exchange dinners with women’s co-ops.

Humberto Beltran-del-Rio, A1 Alexander, Ron Fritch, Michel Sifri, 
and Marv Witbeck look over plans for the new Hedrick house 
to be completed next fall, replacing their burned out structure.

married
housing

Members of the Spartan Council and their wives gather at the 
married housing recreational center, outfitted by the couples.

The trailer apartments are gone. A symbol of the 
sudden flood of veterans to Michigan State, the con­
verted trailers provided homes for the men and their 
families since 1945. The housing office, which was estab­
lished in 1946, soon realized the need for more permanent 
married housing which led to the construction of the bar­
racks apartments by the college.

Waiting lists for the new barracks continued to grow 
with preference going to veterans. The apartments vary 
in size from one bedroom to multiple bedroom units.
The returning veterans were accustomed to improvising 
and found their living facilities a challenge. The families 
worked together on many social projects and were soon 
being serviced with consumer deliveries and a nursery 
maintained by the college.

The trailer apartments were finally removed fall term, 

1955, as the new brick apartments were completed.

Brick
Apartments

Mrs. Rolland West does her weekly shopping at one 
of the large supermarkets in East Lansing. Buying in 
large quantities is economical for the married students 
who usually shop between classes.

Designers of the new brick apartments had the student’s needs 
m mind as they provided comfortable studying, kitchen facilities.

Spartan Nursery, maintained by the college, cares for children of 
the students and is staffed by the parents who rotate their work.

Fall term marked an important event in married hous­
ing as 144 apartments were opened for student occu­
pancy. The new living units are located on South Cam­
pus, near Kalamazoo Street and have been constructed 
in modern, two-story, brick units.

The apartments have living room, kitchen, either one 
or two bedrooms with bath, and spacious closets. They 
are partially furnished and contain wall to wall carpeting.

The new apartments are self-liquidating and built at 
no cost to the public. There is a long waiting list for the 
living units with preference to veterans. Non-veterans 
applying must have a junior class rating.

About 20 per cent of those enrolled at Michigan State 
are married students with the number expected to in­
crease to 2,000 by 1960. To meet this increase, the 
college is planning an additional 134 brick apartments.

alumni join with the thousands of other 
telephone people throughout the state in 
saluting Michigan State College on its first 
100 years of achievement.

Michigan State College was already 34 
years old when telephone service came to 
the Lansing area.

Since that time the telephone service at 
MSC has constantly expanded to keep pace 
with the needs of a growing institution. 
Now more than 3,000 telephones on the

Some day other cars may attain the cleanout distinction of Pontiac styling or the clearcut

advantages of Pontiac’s Strato-Streak V-8 performance. But not now! Today, these 

car-of-tomorrow features are Pontiac exclusives—visual and thrilling evidence of the long way Pontiac 
has gone to bring you a joyously new kind of motoring. Just how delightfully different Pontiac 
ownership can be we invite you to prove by piloting a Pontiac on a route of your choosing. And

don’t be afraid to lose your heart! This future-fashioned General Motors masterpiece is tagged with 

a wonderfully pleasant price. Come in and confirm the reasons why it’s Pontiac’s year to star!

SALUTE TO A 
PIONEER INSTITUTION 
ON ITS CENTENNIAL

The solid hundred-year's growth of Michigan State College and its present 
eminence among our country's great universities at once reflect the pioneer­
ing vision of the school's founders and hold forth rich promise for the future 
of the nation.

As generating-idea and model-pattern for land-grant colleges, this first 
of all agricultural schools has been the keystone of an educational program 
that has grown great with the nation—while it served as a potent factor in 
stimulating the nation's growth.

Higher education in the sciences and techniques of agriculture was a new 
and radical dream back in 1855. Those who built and developed our agricul­
tural colleges have demonstrated its practicality in the exploration, develop­
ment and expansion of our natural wealth.

Under successive administrations, of course, Michigan State has vastly 
broadened its services to our state and the nation—by adding schools of 
engineering, business and public service, education, home economics, science 
and arts, veterinary medicine, graduate studies and a two-year program of 
general education.

Under the present administration and faculty, Michigan State has risen 
to new heights of prestige and influence. Today it ranks as the ninth largest 
institution of higher learning in the nation.

Schools like Michigan State have played a vital role in making ours the 
most productive nation in the world—and in making possible for the great 
mass of our citizens the highest living standards in the history of the human 
race.

These schools are centers of hope and inspiration in a world struggling 

with the problems of human welfare.

Together with our fellow citizens of Lansing, we wish to express our pride 
in the achievements of our local university—and extend our heartfelt con­
gratulations and best wishes to the administration, faculty and students of 
Michigan State College as they celebrate the hundredth anniversary of its 
founding.

to spare! Without question, 1955 is another great Oldsmobile 

year! Oldsmobile is rocketing out ahead .

.

.

 to stay ahead!

All-new "Rocket” 202 Engine features 8.5 
to 1 compression ratio, 202 horsepower, new 
higher torque, new high-lift camshaft, new 
power-contoured combustion chambers.

Age of Enlightenment

Detroit Edison is proud of its long 
association with Michigan State 
College in many projects of mutual 
interest... projects that have con­
tributed immeasurably to the well­
being, the strength, and the de­
velopment of the human resources 
of our country.

In this age of enlightenment, 
we recognize the contribution of 
Michigan State College in prepar­
ing thousands of young men and 
women for the future needs of our 
society. Over the years, many 
graduates of this great college have 
joined the Edison organization, 
and we have benefited by their 
leadership and example.

We congratulate Michigan State 
College on its first 100 years of 
service to a grateful people. We 
look forward to many more years 
of productive work together.

Oict

The Standard Oil Company is grateful for the privilege of paying tribute 

to Michigan State College.

Michigan State gives evidence of its desire to lessen man’s burden by estab­

lishing educational projects in such far-flung places as India and the Ryukyu 

Islands. By teaming science with technology and mechanization, it is con­

tributing to world progress. The Corn Foundation at Michigan State College 

states in part in its Foreword; “Abundance of food is at the foundation of 

civilization.”

We have a special interest in your continuing success. Many of your alumni 

are now employed by our Company in various capacities. Many more are 

successful farmers who depend on petroleum products for power farming.

Nothing is so powerful as Progress on the March. Great have been your 

accomplishments; culminating in the 100th Anniversary; we are confident 

of still greater things to come. Again we salute Michigan State College, its 

faculty and students.

One of the newest additions to Michigan State’s campus is the Harrison Road group of men’s 
dormitories. When finished, it will be one of the largest group of men’s dorms in the United States.

THE CHRISTMAN COMPANY

Builders on Michigan State’s Campus 

Since 1906

The old and the new. Ag Hall, one of the first buildings erected by the Christman Company, stands 
as a landmark of the old school. The new campus library, not yet finished, will stand as a symbol of 
the new university.

LANSING, MICHIGAN

In this magnificent Wolverine is contained vivid 
evidence of hard work, careful planning and con' 
certed organisation on the part of the student body 
and faculty of Michigan State.

Not only have 

they maintained their regular 
scholastic duties, but in addition, have prepared a 
volume that compares favorably with the finest 
works of veteran professional editors.

For many years past we have been commissioned 
by Michigan State to print the Wolverine. It is a 
distinct honor of which we are fully mindful and 
we are particularly proud to have had a part in the 
publication of this Centennial edition.
