Scalpers Rate Fifth in State Conference

 

Three Losses Follow Five Consecutive Wins On

Pigskin Schedule

 

Huron placed fifth among ten contesting teams in the South Dakota College Football Conference this season.

 

After winning five games on the schedule, three of them conference contests, the tribe bowed to Yankton, Southern, and Northern Normal.

 

On Armistice Day four strong players completed their careers on the Huron College football squad.  They are: Captain Curtis McIntosh, back; Bill Hauge, tackel; Joe Rogers, back; and Paul Hohm, back.

 

Huron's fighting squad was at the top of the Conference for several weeks, and despite the last defeats made a fine showing.  Huron fans were far more enthusiastic in the support of the team this year than they were at any time during last year's season.  In view of this, players and students agree that the season was not unsuccessful.

 

The following is Huron's record throughout the season, and the complete results of the South Dakota College Conference.

 

Huron, 7  Valley City 0

Rubaiyat Plan Is Rejected By Board Control

 

**********

 

Yearbook Is Individual Enterprise, Not Student Association Project

 

**********

 

Although suffering discouragement when a plan to make the Rubaiyat a student association project failed, the editor and business manager announce that the work is progres-sing and promise the student body a fine publication.

 

The plan proposed by the staff would have placed an additional fee of two dollars upon each student, and in return each student would receive a book.  Two obstacles to the plan were pointed out at a recent Board of Control meeting.  The new system would necessitate an amendment to the Student Association Constitution, and the delay would make it impossible to inaugurate the plan this fall.  Secondly, contracts hae been made with students setting a definite sum for fees.  The levy of additional fee would work hardships and the administration feels that it would not be practical to assess it at this time.

 

Staff members still urge the adop-tion of the plan.  If amendments and necessary adjustments are made this year, the system can take effect next fall, they said.

 

This year the Rubaiyat will be an individual enterprise, and will be sold to individuals at the traditional price of two dollars and fifty cents.

 

All Rubaiyat group pictures have been taken and are ready for the engravers.  The pictures are reported better than previous pictures.

 

In the meantime candid cameras are clicking in order to provide students with an interesting cross-section of college life.  Snaps contributed by students are welcome.  The pictures should be given to Amos Hofer, Mary Walker, or Floyd Ulrich.

 

Do not fail to make a payment of one dollar for your '39 Rubaiyat.

Besselievre Is First

Student Lecturer

 

Paul Besselievre addressed the chapel audience November 8, using as his theme "Blessed are the meek for they shall inherit the earth."

 

By illustration the speaker pointed out this beatitude holds true in the modern world as surely as it did in the time of Christ.  The modern

connotation of the work "meek" is a mistaken one, he added.  A meek person is patient and mild of temper, and need not be humble and submissive.

 

Paul is an experienced speaker, having preached in South Dakota churches for the Congregational State Conference for the past two and one-half years.

 

This address was the first of a series of student lectures to be given before the chapel during the year.

 

********************

 

A Huron College quintet will make a brief concert tour in the western part of the state on November 19, 20, and 21, it was announced by Prof. Loftus Ward.

 

The quintet which is composed of Jeannette Noel, Helen Prickett, Macel Eggleston, Kenneth Knapp, and Harold Studer, will sing at Philip, South Dakota and surrounding towns.

Christmas Play Cast Selected By Prof. Trefil

 

The Christmas Carol Is First

Drama Offering by
New Prof

 

Old Marle's Ghost will come again to haunt "Scrooge, when the stu-dents of the Dramatic Department of Huron College present The Christmas Carol under the direction of Mr. Trefil in the auditorium, Thursday evening, December 15.

 

The Christmas Carol, based on Dickens' story, is the tale of a hard-hearted, dried-up old man who has sacrificed everything in his life to the almighty dollar.  He does not believe in Christmas or in helping people, and he wants to increase his business.  On Christmas Eve, the ghost of his former partner, Marle, and three other ghosts visit him.  After Marle's Ghost has told him how unhappy he has been since he died, the first ghost, the Past, points out the happiness Scrooge had in his early life.  The second ghost, the Present, shows how the people whom Scrooge has hurt have forgiven him on Christmas Day.  The third ghost, the Yet to Come, tells Scrooge that unless he changes his ways, there will be no one to cry for him when he is dead.  Scrooge follows the wisdom of this speech and becomes a different man.

 

Mr. Trefil has chosen the following cast: Scrooge (Glenn Parker), Bob Cratchitt (Marwin Pearson), Fred (Harold Antle), Marle (Rollyn Moseson), The Past Berdyne Peet), The Present (Herbert Lyman), The Yet to Come (Dale Morse), Mrs. Cratchitt (Maxine Stanley), Mrs. Dilber (Betty martin), the Voices: Little Fan (Doris Nicholas), Fezzi-wig (Elgin Wollman), Sweetheart (Jeanette Jones).

 

The Technical Staff consists of Betty Martin as the assistant director; Katherine Small as the stage manager, and Marcella Train, the crew head.  The scenery is in charge of Ruby Corrington, Joe Schade, and Rd (Ed?) Rauch.  John Phelps is the electrician.

Lettermen Are Hard Pressed by Promising Group of Yearling Aspirants

 

When snow covers the ground and there's a chill in the air, it means one thing to the students of Huron College -- basketball.  Having finished a fairly successful season on the gridiron, college fans are looking forward to a season on the court.

 

With the opening contest, a clash with Ellendale North Dakota Teachers, less than a week away, Coach Parker is rapidly whipping the Scalper machine into shape.  The squad has been cut to 18 men, and the coach is beginning to have some definite ideas as to how the season's quintet will line up for the opening game.

 

Although six lettermen have the inside track on the startin gassignment, the best crop of freshman material in years has furnished a number of promising candidates who threaten to push the lettermen for jobs.

 

Outstanding among the frosh hoopsters are Lester Ketzback, Pierpont, possessing a better-than- average ball-handling ability, and a good eye for the basket; Dell Caldwell, Garden City, a brilliant prospect despite a tricky knee, Don Lobitz, Hazel, a football tackle who knows his way around the basketball court; and Clark Atkinson, Bonilla, who starred with the Eagles in Beadle County Conference warfare, last year.

 

The lettermen are Captain Bill Hauge, who was Huron's high scorer last season; Len Harther and Bill McDermott, who alternated at the other forward last year; L. Scheulke a reserve forward on last year's squad; Kenneth Knapp, a reserve guard on the 1937-38 squad, and Bill Cameron, who earned a letter two years ago but wasn't in school last year.

 

Other players who are in the thick of the battle for positions are L. Swenson, S. Fix, Bob Hauge, Herb Nelson, A. Sisson, W. McGee, C. Carner, and E. Bye.
