Genuine Sincerity Is Felt in M. C. 's Welcome

WELCOME new students! You have heard that often the last week and shall hear It often In the future. When you hear "Welcome! " you hear a sincere greeting. because you are welcome. McPherson takes you

into her organization and makes you a

part of It.

Every new student will feel the depth of fellowship and friendship that is typical of the College. Everyone will know everyone else. When you who are new here feel as If you are lost, turn to an old student—he will make you feel at home. We are certain that the choice the student made when he or she decided to attend McPherson College will never


be regretted and the student will want to return.

Then, this year Is the fiftieth anniversary of the college. Greater goals will be attained.

McPherson College Is not only a “School of Quality" but one of prestige as well.

A word of greeting and welcome Is due our

old students who “came back" instead of going to another Institution. Nowhere, we feel certain, will the students who left here for a larger and strange school, find the deep spirit of friendship that Is so prevalent at M. C.

Old and new, Welcome, and let's make this a banner year!

"Henrietta" and "Gourdie Green", otherwise known ns Miss Agnes Black and Mr. John Bower of Mo-Louth were united in marriage in the home of the bride's parents on Saturday, June 13. by the Rev. S. H. Vogan of Piper. The couple was attended

by Miss Olive Black, bridesmaid, sister of the bride, and by Mr. Gordon Bower, best man, brother of the groom.

You've got the crowd back of you Fight. Bulldogs, fight. Bulldogs, fight

Why not break that line in two as can be

Let's make the coach just as proud Our team Is going to be a winner You've got the spirit that wins And with our cheers we're going to help to win this battle.


Webber-Schacht The marriage of Miss Helen Webber, former McPherson College student to

Mr. Edgar Schacht, of Lorraine, took place Sunday, June 14 at 2: 30 p. m., In the parlors of the Methodist church of McPherson.

The Rev. Walter Schmidt of Lorraine performed the ceremony.


Holzemer-Meyers Tuesday, August 18, was the date chosen by Miss Elizabeth Holzemer and Leslie Meyers for their wedding. Miss Holzemer was graduated from McPherson College In 1933 and Mr. Meyers In 1932.


Come on out west—our schools are best.

Out among the tall-sun-flowers.

Our red and white—send out their light.

McPherson College sends its' beams to you.

For you and me—our songs shall be Of a love that is so true—

We’ll ne’er    forget—you'l ne’er

regret—

McPherson—we're all for you.

Come on out here—teams know no fear.

Friendships formed are gay and glad.


Well, well, well, here we are back trying to get enrolled in the school of quality again, and having to wait around the office doors longer than ever. I am pretty sure I can get by the rest, but don’t know about Fries. I don’t know why, but he always seems to think he has to have some money. I am seeing lots of old faces around here—maybe Shor-ty Wine would object to my calling her face old, so I had better say familiar. It seems just like meeting your own family about Thanksgiving time. This is about the friendliest place I know of.

We had quite a trip getting down here—believe it or not we left home in the rain—for there were ao many things to bring. Everybody seemed so interested in Henrietta last year I just brought her along too. Now we'll get the low down on this "two can live as cheaply as one" business.

Have you noticed too that all tbe dorm girls have lost some of the extra pounds gained last year?

Such a lavish floor lamp as one of the second floor rooms boasts, I have never seen In the boy’s dorm. And If old Fahnestock hasn't recovered yet from the torment of being inhabited to welcome "Amos, " let me do It. To have such an Iowa-Missouri  - farmer - camper - preacher - senior residing In the barracks is much to Its credit.

College life—for most of us—has ( started off just where we left it last spring. And from observation most of the couples are following the same policy.


Rumors of organising a Landon club on the campus reach my ears with PROMPT DISAPPROVAL. Mrs. Gourdie Green, now Is the time to demonstrate your authority and keep your husband from the ranks of a mere sunflower politician.


Thanks for a not-dried-up campus. And I feel better now, after seeing the results of the seed planted last spring, over the old disgusts aggravated by Doc Forney's persistence in making me walk all those extra steps around the wire to the library.

If "Bill" Fry agrees with Shakespeare that 'Rosemary Is for remembrance', now... what do you sup-pose... Marjorie... is for?


‘Bud’ Selves Steps Into Coach’s Shoes

Binford Goes to Oklahoma City University For Further Study



Ring-Yoder The marriage of Miss Una Ring and Mr. Wilbur Yoder, both graduates of McPherson College, was

consummated in a pretty service on August 23 at the Methodist Church in McPherson. Mr. Yoder has been employed for the past two years by the People's State Bank of this city. Miss Ring has been teaching at Kingsdown, since her graduation in 1934.     


A mountaineer had his first trip to the city with his son, driving a decrepit car. Stopping the car on main street the old man climbed out and appeared to be fascinated by the pavement. He scraped his feet on the hard surface, then turned to his son.

"I don't blame 'em for building a town hero. ” he said. "This ground is too durned hard to plow anyway. "

This year a great coach, Melvin J. Binford passed out of the McPherson College limelight, to be immediately replaced by a brilliant, fiery leader, Lester "Bud" Shelves.

Coach "Bud" Selves came to MCPherson College to be assistant football coach as a graduate of Cottonwood Falls high school and College of Emporia. In his playing days Selves was

considered by most sports writers as one of the finest halfbacks the state has ever known and a winner of many honors in track.

For the past three years Coach Selves has been assistant coach at McPherson. With this experience and a natural ability as a leader "Bud will more than fill the bill.

Coach Melvin Binford was as clean and

all-around athlete as has ever entered the portals of McPherson College. Because of this he was highly respected and liked by all who came

in contact with him.

Coach Binford, after ten successful years as coach at Hutchinson Junior College and McPherson College, resigned his past position to take up

his new duties and study at Oklahoma City University. Coach Binford will act as director of health and physical education. While also assisting Toby Green, university coach, in football and other sports he will have charge of the basketball coaching.

Coach Binford, through six trying years put out teams as fine as were In

the conference. McPherson College will never be able to repay him for his great sacrifice for the good of the college. The athletic field, for which he was directly responsible will always stand as a memorial to a great coach and a great fellow.

Thirteen Lettermen Return for Football

With Thirty-seven Men Out For Practice A Good Team Seems Probable.

Thirty-seven candidates have reported for practice to Coach “Bud'’ Selves and his assistant "Chet" Johnston. Coach Selves will have thirteen lettermen as a nucleus around which to build his team.

The most promising feature of this year’s squad is the backfield. with five lettermen returning. Among these is Harold Zuhars, rabbit-footed halfback, who has developed into one of the best open-field runners in the conference. Lee Haun Is back with his sensational punting and running, which has made him a constant threat.

Delbert Crabbe has returned to fight for his position as quarterback or full. In Merwin Hapgood McPherson has a fighter, who has what it takes to make a football player. "Happy" really showed them how during the latter part or the season, when he was given his chance.

George Roland is another blossoming back field letterman. George is shifty and one of the fastest men on the team.

In the line two veterans, Bob Wie-gand and Clayton Rock, will be fighting for the center position. Rock also plays the guard position. As the tackle positions Selves has a wealth of material In Don Barngrover, Chester Colwell, Dwight Barngrover, and Lawrence Boyer. All four are experienced and will be in there fighting for regular berths. Don Barngrover also Is a candidate for the end position.

Mike Vasquez, all conference guard for two years, will be in there at guard, and It will take a mighty good man to swipe that position from "Mike" who has been the backbone of the line for the last two years. Martin Siedel will be back at the other guard position, and with his fight he developed last year into one of the best men in the line.

At end we have only Barngrover returning which means one end left open. On paper everything looks rather favorable for a powerful team this year, with every position possible filled with a letterman. Of course lettermen returning doesn't mean that they cannot be replaced for there are a great number of candidates which are likely to keep some letterman on the bench.

Other candidates are as follows: D. McGill, B. Hall, Bob Wiegand, Don Miller, Ray Robertson, Walter Shannon, Bill Carter, S. Boyer, George Chase, Robert Seidel, V. Swartwood, I. Keck, R. Flory, Lloyd Moehlman, Meredith Rogers, M. Wel-ber, E. Diehl, L. York, W. Oxley, R. Kingsley, V. Carter, D. Williams, E. Liss, Don Hart, Mathiot and Shrader.     *

Sport Skits

Many of you sports fans will remember a gentleman by the name of Bernie Hinkle from C. of E. who batted down footballs like flies and Mocked and tackled like a demon, in fact he was considered by most sport authorities as one of the best defensive halfbacks In the state. Anyway the New York Giants thought he was good and so this fall he will receive some pretty good cash for all his bruises, besides the glory.

Coach Emil S. Listen, veteran coach of the Kansas Conference, has his worries this fall. Having lost Anderson, line plunger, kicker, and passer; Albertson, kicker, passer and signal caller; Holman, kicker and line plunger; and Rickets, defensive blocker, in the backfield. Liston and his assistants will Immediately  begin to try to fill up those vacant shoes, but we would suggest that It will be a job to replace those shoes in one year. Too they must care for the vacancies caused by the graduation of Dissinger, Glasson and Martin, key lineman.

If you want to get any information

about "Bud" Selves as a trackman

and football player, you might drop around to Emporia some time. In the history of College of Emporia and Emporia Teachers, C. of E. has only defeated the Hornets once. That once was when a player by the name of Lester Selves intercepted a pass, and ran through the Hornets tack-lers and raced 50 yards for a touchdown. That's quite a run even for a track man.

Football practice opened at Bethany College Tuesday, September 2, with 11

lettermen on hand to encourage Coach Elmer Schaako in building his 1936 8wede team. The Swedes have an early game with the Kearney Teachers on September 18. Those Vikings are going to be plenty tough. With that snappy Ireland as quarterback those boys are going

places.

If there is any gentleman that is laying money on the board around those parts, he might be interested in the fact that the New York Yanks are an 8 to 6 favorite to take the World Series from the National League contender which looks like another New York series to us.

ning around the track. If we had a dozen men like them who were willing to sacrifice a little time, there wouldn't be any doubt as to the result of our track season. Power to you fellows and if anybody deserves praise you fellows certainly do. Anybody that can run at all should be out there on that track keeping in shape.

You might be interested in knowing that even during the coldest weather the Baker track squad kept In shape by working Indoors That's how track teams are built; they can’t be built in a day, or in a few weeks' time.
