STUDENTS CARRY TORCH FOR R. J. C.
STUDENT
SKETCHES
Our man of the hour attended high school at Ojai, California, and Phoenix, Arizona. He
has lived in Rochester for three
years but calls Texas his home.
Business Administration is taking up his time here at J. C.
We have a private pilot
among us, fellow students. He
has been flying for the last two
years.
And now for a little low
down on his ambition and
hobby. To quote his words:
"My ambition is not to be too
much of a flop in the newspaper
business." This student has
been taking pictures for several
years and has done some press
photography. He has been
"flashing" around school with
his Speed Graphic, and much to
the Echo's advantage.
Ah, he likes apple pie and his
pet   peeve    is    women    (sometimes!).     Say,    mister,    better
; watch   that.     Just   who   is    it
that makes those apple pies?
Well, children, if you haven't
guessed whom we've been talk-
i ing about, I'll tell you. Mr. Lee
Owens, take a bow.
Mary Jo Gerlicher and her attendants, Millicent Arnold and Janet Hofschulte
at the game
INSTRUCTORS
HEAR PERTINENT
TALK AT M. E. A.
State Senator A. L. Almen,
newly elected Minnesota Education
Association president said, when he
spoke before the convention delegates, that the public must recognize the duty and debt they owe
the teachers. He also stated that
"teachers are acutely aware of critical world conditions and will do
their full part in helping stave off
disaster by helping develop clear,
tolerant, unprejudiced thinking
among their students—tomorrow's citizens."
Walter E. Englund, executive
secretary of the M. E. A. explained that the minimum salary
schedule of $1,200, $1,500 and
$1,800 approved for enactment into state law is not intended as a
gauge of pay for entering teachers,
but as an absolute floor below
which teachers' salaries should not
go, "even in depression."
Dr. William J. O'Brien, director
of postgraduate medical education
at the University of Minnesota, advocated physical examinations for
all Minnesota children before they
first enter school, and at three-year
intervals during their school life.
ADULT CLASSES
STUDY LIVING
Interesting work is being developed in the adult education classes,
under the direction of Mr. Emil
Heintz.
A new course for young people
is being planned. It deals with
marital happiness and getting
along in life. The class will be
under the direction of Horton Colbert.
Geza Schutz is going to teach
a new class in labor relations.
For parents with school child-
reen between the ages of five and
ten years, a course in child development is being offered.
In connection with the Winona
State Teachers' College, a course
in economics is being offered for
teachers.
Within the next couple of
months, a course in home planning under the direction of Professor Cirney,* is to be started. Professor Cirney has taught classes as
large as six hundred at the University of Minnesota.
Other courses offered here include: personnel management, retail merchandise, educational sociology, and graduate courses.
So far, about 530 persons are
registered in our evening classes.
Parade Is Success
If  you  listen,   you'll  hear  —
J. C's. homecoming was a big success!     Bud Bahr's  torches flamed
bravely   through   town,   drawing
crowds to admire the Good Queen
Mary Jo and her two atendants,
Janet Hofschulte and Mickey Arnold.    Ticket sales to the game were
good, and many a Jack dragged his
Jill to the Juke-session following.
It takes a crowd to succeed with
a homecoming, and thanks are due
to every student who helped with
preparations and participated in the
festivities.    But it's only fittin' to
mention particularly Martha Anderson, who headed the decorations,
and did a bang-up job;Mary Elton
who saw  that  we  got fed;    Art
Gordon,   who  handled  publicity;
Max Field, Sophomore class president, who directed activities generally,  and   furnished   one   small
daughter for   the   crowning ceremony;  Bob Tryon   (he provided
the other daughter) ; and Marcene
McGlothlin,    whose    position   as
head  of the  Student  Council  insures her never having more than
ten minutes free at a time.
The Post-Bulletin was generous
throughout homecoming week
concerning space and deadlines;
Mayor Grassle, the Elks Drum and
Bugle Corps, and the motorcycle
police who escorted the torchlight
parade, all cooperated beautifully.
Congratulations are due to our
prety queen and attendants for presiding so graciously over an affair
we'll talk about for months.
