S P A R T AN A L UM N I M A G A Z I N E ADVENTURES IN LIVING M I C H I G AN STATE C O L L E GE iMuUStt^j MEETS THE CHALLENGE School of Education Reorganizes ONE OF THE CHALLENGES the School of Education has facing it is the growing shortage of teachers in the public schools for the next several years. There is no leveling off in sight in the number of young children entering school. The birth rate in the early months of 1951+ is seven per cent more than that of the same months in 1953 and it is still going up. Every year 6500 new teachers are needed to teach in Michigan teaching to col schools, the positions ranging from elementary lege and university teaching. A COMPLETELY new set-up will greet prospective teachers enroll ing in the School of Education at the start of the school year. Teacher edu cation has been intelligently redirected after 11 months of intensive study of the problem by Dean Clifford E. Erickson and the staff of the School of Education. "The reorganization represents a real step ahead in developing a teacher educa tion program that utilizes all the re sources of Michigan State College," states Dr. Erickson. To avoid the extreme departmentaliza tion which is characteristic of most American colleges and universities, a minimum number of departments was set up. Also, a plan was developed which made it possible for the School of Edu cation to cooperate with all the schools on the campus in teacher education. Five Departments Instead of Eight The new organizational plan calls for five departments instead of the original eight. The five will be the Departments of Teacher Education; Foundations of Education; Administrative and Educa tional Services; Health, Physical Educa tion and Recreation; and the Department of Vocational Education. Under this plan, the Department of Teacher Education has been established to teach courses in methods and special ized courses in specific fields. It also is responsible for planning and coordinat ing student's programs and directing stu dent teaching and other laboratory ex periences for prospective teachers. Since it was felt that teachers might be getting too highly specialized and that there was a need for them to have a broader educational background, a Department of Foundations of Education was established which provides a founda tion program common to all undergradu ate students in Education, and, at the graduate level, provides both general and specialized courses foundation areas. in the Responsibility the professional for preparation of personnel who provide leadership in the educational system and work in an administrative capacity falls under the Department of Administrative and Educational Services. Educational workers in vocational and practical art areas will have their pro- On the Cover... a re M r. a nd M r s.

For the preparation of men and women physical educators, physical therapy per sonnel and recreation leaders, the De partment of Health, Physical Education and Recreation was organized. All Available Resources Used Dean Erickson explained that under the terms of the reorganization, all can didates for secondary school teaching will be enrolled, advised, and granted de grees by the School of their major field and by the School of Education. Also, the enrollment officer will be assigned from the student's major field. However, all candidates for secondary school teaching must be approved by the School of Edu cation before they undertake a teacher training program, and must continue to be approved throughout the entire pro gram. Under this five-department set-up, the committee on secondary education in tends to use all of the resources of the campus trained teachers possible. to develop the best The committee was also interested in building an organization which would bring research, field services and campus teaching together. In other words, to do the same thing in the field of educa tion that the Extension Service does for the School of Agriculture. Thus, a Bureau of Research and Serv ice was organized to handle off-campus instruction, publications, radio and tele vision services, and to develop research in the field of education. Some technical personnel are in the Bureau, but most of its staff are members of the teaching departments doing part-time work in the Bureau. In brief, the School of Education has taken decisive steps towards meeting the educational requirements and leading in the development of educational patterns within the cultural framework of the United States.

It seems that way when Mrs. Fred Morse and her kinfolks get together, or the Herb Gettels, or the family of Santiago Iledan from the Philippines. AT THE TURN of the century a young girl, Paulina Raven (now Mrs. Fred Morse), chanced to hear a talk on home economics at Michigan State which filled her with such enthusiasm that she went home and told her father she was going to enroll at "M.A.C." and study home time, Mrs. Morse economics. At recalls, it was considered unusual for a girl to go to college to "learn the duties of the home." that "I shall never forget my father's re ply," she said, "when I told him." He asked, "What do you expect to do when finish, be a cook for a Rocke feller or a Vander- bilt?" . you But that was not to be Paulina's fu ture. After gradu ating in 1905, she taught first the home economics ex in tension school in Michigan, and two 1914 courses in the first home economics short course at M.S.C. Mrs. Fred Morse taught Always a strong booster of Michigan State, Mrs. Morse has been responsible for encouraging a number of her family and to attend. All of her brothers and sisters—with the exception of one—and her children and grand children have gone to State. relatives One of the largest "family groups" on the M.S.C. alumni rolls, Mrs. Morse and more than 25 of her relatives attended M.S.C. between 1895 and 1950. It is quite a coincidence that it was her brother, county agent Emmett Raven, who said about the Gettel family in a recent article in the Country Gentleman, "You never saw folks who work so well together and have such a good time." T HERE'S no doubt but that M.S.C. has exerted a telling influence upon the lives of the Gettel family. Record readers may have read about the Gettels. There are Herb Sr. and his wife, Dora, their four sons and a daugh ter. All except the daughter are in a farming venture together on a 640-acre farm, the called Fertile Acres, "thumb" district. in Of the four sons, Douglas, 19, and the junior at M.S.C. is now a youngest, GETTEL PLANNING SESSION: Herb, Sr. (left) and his four sons, Douglas, '56, Loren, Clarence, '41, and Herb Jr.; Loren and Herb Jr. attended winter short courses.

The daughter, Dorothy, graduated in home economics (need it be mentioned?) at Michigan State and taught in schools near Detroit before her marriage. Herb Sr. is director of the state Crop Improvement Association, and a member of the executive committee of the Michi gan Agricultural Conference. Even though the farm is large and highly diversified, all the regular work is handled by the family. Herb Jr., be cause of reasons of health, has had to quit actual farming, but with the help of the rest of the Gettels, has established a farm implement firm nearby. Clarence and Loren are Herb's full-time farmer sons. Douglas, of course, is busy with his studies at M.S.C, but he pitches in during the summer months. two All is not work for the Gettel clan, spends however.

Her father, Santiago Iledan, at tended M.S.C. from 1916 to 1920. After to the Philip graduating, he returned pines to teach agriculture, and he is now the principal of the Institute of Madyaas, at Numia, Capiz, Philippine Islands. Elizabeth, Priscilla's sister, graduated with a master's degree in education in 1950, and is now married and living in Chicago. Priscilla plans to return to the Philip pines this fall and work in the republic's Department of Agriculture. 3 Campus Prepares for Homecoming Celebration Planned for Oct. 2 2 - 23 Crowds of alumni in a holiday mood are expected on the M.S.C. campus to mingle with the students and celebrate homecoming weekend, Oct. 22-23. A full calendar is scheduled for alumni club presidents on Friday afternoon and Saturday morning in the Union Building. The Friday afternoon workshop will in clude talks by campus staff on topics related to club activities. The first part of the Saturday morning session will be given over to reports from clubs which have turned in outstanding performances in alumni work this past year, and the second half of the morning session will be broken down into group discussions, according to club classification. Club presidents and wives (or hus bands) will be guests of the Department of Alumni Relations, Friday evening, Oct. 22, at a dinner at which President John A. Hannah will be the speaker. At this time, the outstanding alumni clubs for 1953-54 will be announced. Also Friday evening, will be the home coming stag smoker and the alumnae homecoming mixer. (See Club News.) Elizabeth Daniels Memorial Fund Grows Elizabeth Daniels, known, respected and loved by many students and staff members, passed away in June, and a memorial service was held at the Alumni Chapel on June 11. A scholarship was established as a memorial to Betty, because it seemed the most fitting tribute her friends could pay to a person who took such a personal in terest in her students and helped and It was her encouraged those in need. wish that some money be set aside for student aid. A temporary committee composed of Lydia Lightring, head of women's physi cal education; Dorothy J. Parker, former associate of Miss Daniels in the physical education department and now assistant to the Dean of Students in the women's division; Mabel Petersen, assistant to the Dean of Students in the women's divi sion; and Mrs. Henrietta Barnes, of the scholarship aid office, have outlined the way in which the fund will be admin istered. Aid from this fund, which has now grown to over $800.00, will be available to junior and senior physical education majors in health, physical education and recreation. Those friends who wish to share in this memorial to Miss Daniels may send their contribution to the Eliza beth Daniels Scholarship Fund, Women's Physical Education Department, Michi gan State College. 4 Highlight of the festivities will be Saturday's M.S.C.-Purdue game. Follow ing the game, alumni will assemble on the football field under placards marked with their class numerals. The weekend will come to a close with the Homecoming Ball Saturday evening where the homecoming queen will be crowned. A special added attraction this year will be the concerts, both Friday and Saturday evening, by the Purdue Glee Club, one of the outstanding men's choral groups in collegiate circles. These con certs will be sponsored by the student government and the M.S.C. Glee Club. Changes Greet Students As School Opens New buildings, new courses, and a new driving regulation will greet an esti mated 15,300 students when classes begin this month at Michigan State College. construction Three major projects have been underway during the summer at M.S.C.—apartment buildings for mar ried students, men's dormitories and a new $4 million the steel framework of the library is rising above ground, it is not scheduled for completion until 1955-56. (See story on issue.) housing in this library. Although Students will start classwork Sept. 27. More than 128 courses will be offered, as well as three new graduate programs. For the first time, master's degree pro grams in Landscape Architecture and in Hotel, Restaurant and General Institu tional Management will be offered. Also, in the winter term, the Department of Engineering is planning to offer a mas ter of science degree with a major in agricultural mechanics. toward headed Students teaching careers will be met by a newly organized School of Education. The reorganization, effected July 1, is designed to make the school one of the most modern and effec tive in the country (See Inside Story). Expected to be a top subject of con versation this Fall among students is the new code permitting any M.S.C. student to own and drive a car on the campus. Permission is granted under provisions of a new set of regulations adopted by the State Board of Agriculture, M.S.C.'s governing body. Mapped jointly by stu dent government, campus police and the Dean of Students, the regulations permit the ownership and operation of cars by students, subject to specific regulations. Violation of regulations will result in stiff penalties for the student. NEW STYLE like wildfire across There's a stylish new fad at Michigan State this fall and ex perts unanimously agree it should spread the nation during the next 16 months. The subject—M.S.C.'s Centennial; the torchbearers—students, faculty, alumni and friends of the college. Throughout the state, nation and world, the Story of State will be told and retold thousands of times between now and the end of 1955. As aids in carrying out this pro gram, Michigan State will have available many promotional and souvenir items. Russel Villars, col lege book store manager, expects to have special Centennial color picture folders, decals, banners, stationery, napkins, ties, "T" shirts, ashtrays and other similar items on sale within the next few weeks. in securing any of these items should write: Manager, College Book Store, Union Building. Alumni or clubs interested Concerts Feature World's Greatest Some of the world's greatest names of music, drama and lecture platform fame will appear in Michigan State College's 1954-55 Lecture-Concert Series. The 19 programs will be presented in M.S.C.'s popular "A" and " B" series beginning in October, according to Dean S. E. Crowe, series director. The high point of the season will be two performances, on Dec. 7 and 8, of "A Midsummer Night's Dream" by the Old Vic Company of London, starring Moira Shearer of "Red Shoes" fame. In addition, the completed schedule in cludes Roberta Peters, the Boston Sym phony, London Festival ballet, New York City Opera company, Detroit symphony, Isaac Stern, the Concertgebouw orches tra, Vienna Choir Boys, Victor Herbert Festival and Myra Hess. Lecturers will include John Gunther, Trygve Lie, Dwight Cooke, Congressman Douglas R. Stringfellow and Meredith Willson. Special numbers, not included in the regular series, will offer the Festi val of Modern American Jazz, Jazz at the Philharmonic, the "Caine Mutiny Court- martial," "Biggest Show of 1954" Marge and Gower Champion and Burl Ives. The weekly World Travel Series will start Oct. 2, and the fall term Foreign Film Series on Sept. 27. AFFAIRS OF STATE M.S.C. Mourns Death Of Two Faculty Members Dr. Dwight Tarbell Ewing, professor emeritus of chemistry at M.S.C. and a national expert on electroplating, died unexpectedly in August of a heart attack at the age of 66. Dr. Ewing came to Michigan State as a chemistry instructor in 1914, and al though he retired in June 1953, still served as a consultant to the chemistry department. In his 39 years at Michigan State, Dr. Ewing was active in the field of chemis try, publishing some 75 scientific papers, and holding seven patents on electroplat ing and other electrochemical processes. During World War I, Dr. Ewing did research on mustard gas, and during World War II worked on the Manhattan project, receiving an award for meri torious research. Dr. J. Howard Muncie, 64, a member of the M.S.C. faculty in the Department of Botany and Plant Pathology since 1929, died in July at the family sum mer home at Elk Lake. An outstanding authority on plant dis eases affecting the potato industry, Dr. Muncie served the U.S. Department of Agriculture in two world wars to step up production of scarce agricultural com modities. Dr. Muncie first came to the Michigan State campus in 1913 to what was then the Michigan Agricultural College. He left to do research at other colleges and earn his doctor's degree, returning to M.S.C. in 1929. Gifts and Grants Gifts and grants of $400,185.25 for research and educational purposes at Michigan State College were accepted Friday by the State Board of Agricul ture, M.S.C.'s governing body. The biggest single grant accepted by the board is $161,012 from the Institute of Inter-American Affairs, a U.S. agency. M.S.C. will use the fund in helping to establish the first school of business ad ministration in Brazil. Nine other government grants—two from the army, one each from the Office of Naval Research and U.S. department of agriculture, and five from the Atomic Energy Commission—amount to $107,860. Top-Level Appointments Three top-level appointments became effective this summer—one each in Con tinuing Education Service, the School of Education, and the School of Agriculture. Leland W.

Suc ceeding Dean will be Richard Marcus, who has been in charge of the Con tinuing Education business office. to Dean who j o i n ed M.S.C. staff Dean, M.A. '51, t he three years ago, will be responsible for student registration, advisement on courses and all other matters pertaining to students in the School of Education. Marcus, M.A. '46, who takes over the responsibilities for the many conferences and special courses, joined the M.S.C. staff in 1947 as an assistant professor in the Adult Education Department. Marcus Boger Dr. Lawrence L. Boger, Ph.D. '50, one of the youngest agricultural economics heads in the nation, was appointed head of Michigan State College's Agricultural the Economics Department age of 31. in July at Coming to M.S.C. in 1947 from Purdue University, where he obtained his bache lor of science degree, the agricultural economist became an instructor here in 1948, and received his master's degree here in 1948. He is rated as an outstanding teacher, and is also an agricultural marketing and price authority. to A first place award in a national com petition went the Department of its Information Services at M.S.C. for community newspaper editorial confer ence.

The current amateur golf and tennis champions of Michigan are both Michi gan State graduates, and the British Em pire 440-yard dash king is a State stu dent. Glenn Johnson ('46), a former Spartan quarterback, won the golf title, while Len Brose ('50), another Spartan alum nus, took the tennis crown by nipping Stan Drobac ('53), who also is a former Spartan tennis star. Both Brose and Drobac were Big Ten singles champions at State. At Vancouver, British Columbia, Kevan the captain-elect of the 1955 Gosper, State track squad, ran off with the Em pire 440-yard title in a record time of 47.1. The old record was 47.9. Gosper, who ran for Australia, has one more year of competition at Michigan State. In baseball, Robin Roberts, ('48), former Spartan ace pitcher, is a leading major leaguer with 18 wins. The big righthander has lost nine. Roberts has already won 20 or more in four straight seasons, and he can tie a National League record if he does it again this year. He was signed off the Spartan campus by the Phillies before he completed his eligibility. Press Box Report on SPARTAN SPORTS By FRED STABLEY and TED EMERY THE 58TH VARSITY football team is shaping up on the practice areas south of Macklin Field. Head Coach Duffy Daugherty picked up on Sept. 1 where he left off at the end of spring training and has until Sept. 25 to tinker around with the new Spartan grid machine. Then it will be put to its first major test of the season against h i g h l y - r e g a r d ed Iowa, noted as Big Ten title favorite. This is a year of transition in Michi gan State football, and it is still any body's guess as to just how well the team will develop. The loss of 16 players from last year's Big Ten co-championship team and Rose Bowl winner, plus four of the coaches, are the big handicaps which must be overcome. Bullough At the l-equest of newsmen covering the opening day of practice, Daugherty lined up the following as a tentative first team: Ends, Co-captain Don Kauth and Ellis Duckett; tackles, Randy Schrecen- gost and Roland Dotsch; guards, Ferris Hallmark and Hank Bullough; center, Fred Rody; quarterback, Earl Morrall; left half, Co-captain LeRoy Bolden; right Jerry half, Ray Eggleston; Planutis. Of three—Hall these, only mark, Bullough and Bolden—were regu lars last season. The rest, with the ex ception of Eggleston, were Eggleston didn't upon as a fine prospect. lettermen. looked letter, but is fullback, Hallmark Bolden season, and only one—Bolden—was a regular. Line depth on the other hand, was encouraging. Two or three good hands were to be found in most positions, plus promising newcomers to back them up. Among the sophomores receiving a great deal of attention were end Lacey Bernard; tackles Ron Latronica and Dave Trippett; guards Joe Carruthers and Frank Nauyokas; centers Don Berger and John Matsko, and backs Lou Cos- tanzo, Rudy Gaddini, Clarence Peaks and Pat Wilson. Behind this outfit, Daugherty lined up a second string which looked like this: Ends, John Lewis and Carl Diener; tackles, Embry Robinson and Morley Murphy; guards, Bill Ross and Norm Masters; center, Joe Badaczewski; quar terback, John Matsock; left half, Gary Lowe; right half, Travis Buggs, and full back, Vic Postula. Of these men, Lewis, Badaczewski, Ross, Masters, Murphy, Diener and Matsock won letters last fall. One point which quickly caused some concern to sideline observers was the thin crop of backs. Only 21 reported— six quarterbacks, five left halfbacks, six right halfbacks and four fullbacks. Of these, only five were letter-winners last 6 FIVE SFAKTAN ALL-AMEKICAN'S: Enough to delight any college football coach, are shown as they gathered at Michigan State this summer for filming of a football training movie.

Huby, a distinguished, sena torial-looking Rhode Island native who still makes State's game movies. taken And first the in Huby was just a young man with an idea when he approached Ralph H. Young, State Athletic Director, with the thought of taking game movies for State. At that time there had never been a full-game movie, although some game action had been recorded for newsreels. In fact, that was Huby's job. He was filming newsreels for Reo Motors of Lansing. Mr. Young liked the idea, but explained that the college budget was not geared for such things, and so Huby agreed to pay some of the expenses himself. The results were good, and Mr. Young to was well pleased. Huby was hired do the most the important games on Spartan schedule. Since State couldn't to have all home games filmed, afford Huby took his idea to Fielding Yost at Football Training Film Freshmen football candidates at Michi gan State are in for a new form of indoctrination in the complex Spartan system of play. For new head coach Hugh Duffy Daugherty and his staff have been busy during the summer months filming a training movie to be shown to the Spartans of the future.

In 1938, Michigan State's budget reached the point where Huby could be hired full-time, and he's been filming State's games ever since. His work now also includes filming of home basketball, wrestling, gymnastics, hockey and box ing events. But football is Huby's first love. Every home game Saturday, while the bands blare and shoulder pads smack, Huby's 16 mm. camera goes quietly clicking on, atop Macklin Field, in a camera room which Huby himself designed. "Besides being more convenient up there, it's a lot safer," Huby smiles. "When I started out there were no press boxes and I the sidelines. took from Sometimes the plays ran right over me." It's not like that now, though. Even on trips away from Macklin Field, Huby finds most stadiums have good facilities for taking game films. Others assisting in the film are Sid Stein and two current Spartans, ends Charles Fairbanks and John Lewis. Bill Yeoman, a great center at West Point, and now an assistant coach at State, is the center. Coach Daugherty and staff prepared and directed the sequence filming. Upon completion by staff photographer Everett N. Huby, the film will have a sound track affixed and its use may be extended to high school coaches in the state. Name Change The name on the athletic director's in Jenison Fieldhouse has been office changed to "Mr. "Mr. Young" Munn." Since July 1, Biggie has been running the athletic show which for 31 years was directed by Mr. Young. from Mr. Young was feted royally as his leave-taking approached. He was honored by various groups, but the most pre tentious affair was that staged by a group of Lansing area friends and col leagues at Olds Engineering Auditorium. Nearly 800 people attended. Mr. Young was overwhelmed with tributes which in cluded a new Oldsmobile 98, the an nouncement of the naming of the varsity track and the "Ralph H. Young field," and the establishment of a Ralph H. Young Scholarship Fund. field area Today almost every major college and small college has its games filmed, and it all started when Everett N. Huby had an idea in 1923.

ADVENTURES IN A NEW adventure in living is taking place on the M.S.C. campus. There was a time when a college or university built one or two dormitories and felt that they had done reasonably well in fulfilling their responsibilities in student housing. the That time is now past. Not only does Michigan State have largest on- campus student housing in the country, but they are pioneering in building at for tractive, modern brick apartments married students. These apartments—12 units and 144 apartments in all—will be ready for occupancy this fall, although three of the units were set up first as "pilot models" and were in use through out 1953. A generation ago, it was unheard of for a college to provide housing for mar ried students. But today's student is the product of a different set of circum stances. Generally, he is older; usually he has been in military service and, upon getting out, is eager to get married and to complete his schooling. He accom plishes both. Thomas Dutch, director of housing, and Emery Foster, manager of dormi tories and food services, emphasizes that since the non-veteran student applying for married housing must have a junior class rating, "we don't feel we are en couraging students to marry by provid ing housing. What we want to do is to provide housing for the married student who sincerely wants to come to college." Actually, these 144 apartments are a small start, Foster says. All apartments have already been leased with more than It is a question how long 200 on the waiting list. By 1960, approxi mately 2,000 married students are ex pected on campus, and the barracks apartments, now full and with a waiting list, have been in use seven or eight years. the barracks will last, Foster commented, though they are in good condition now. To meet the problem before it becomes acute, the State Board of Agriculture, governing body of M.S.C., voted in August to draw up a plan for financing at to least 200 more apartments and study the possibility of financing three more men's dormitories. No Cost to the Public The new living quarters are self- liquidating and are built at no cost to the public.
