"THE LITTLE MINISTER" IS GREAT SUCCESS GIVEN BY ALL-FACULTY CAST Mrs. Holgate and Mr. Ramey Have Leading Roles; Scenery Is Especially Attractive Presented by an all-faculty cast, "The Little Minister", a very appropriate Gypsy Day play, was enthusiastically received by an over-crowded house. The leading roles were played by Mrs. Helen Holgate and Mr. Elwood Ramay. Babbie, an English lord's daughter in gypsy guise, by artful coquetting gets the "Little Minister" to love her, in spite of his fear of the austere elders of the "Kirk". This is the keynote to the story. In the difficult interpretation of Babbie, Mrs. Holgate displayed superb acting, portraying sudden changes in mood with apparent ease. Mr. Ramay played the part of the pious young minister, picturing excellently the change of feeling from a scorn of the gypsy girl to reckless love. Mrs. Celeste Barnes was particularly attractive in acting the part of Nannie, a Scotch weaver. The part of Rob Dow, a reformed drunkard, was played realistically by Lloyd H. Spencer. W. R. Van Walker interpreted well the part of the chief elder, and H. P. Gerber was unusual in his portrayal of the villain, the disturbing influence of the plot. Other important parts were played by Merle Trickey, Paul O. Carr, John Lukken, Herbert Hiett, Edna Olson, James Gerber, and Harry Hater. Prof. E. Kenneth Baillie and Nels Johnson were responsible for the elaborate stage settings, two of which were especially outstanding, the for- •st with the lights of Thrums in the distance, and the street scene in front of the Kirk and Manse. Winners of the Gypsy Day prizes, 1: sted elsewhere, were announced by E. K. Baillie. Between the acts entertainment was furnished by the college orchestra, directed by Prof. Howard E. Goodsell. The production was directed by P. J. Harkness, whose selection of the cast was principally responsible for the success. The play was also given Friday eveninfr for down town people. HIGH PRAISE The following are excerpts from a letter from T. J. McCarthy, chairman athletic committee, at Superior State Teachers College, to Dean J. W. Thomas: "Permit me to say that this game was the best game we have had this year and it was also the best game we had last year. You have a splendid team and coach and it is always a pleasure and will be in the future to schedule Aberdeen on our grounds. The relationship, as you mentioned, has been very pleasant and your team draws our largest crowds when they play in our city." SPECIAL ASSEMBLY CALLED To bring enthusiasm to a higher pitch for Gypsy Day, a special assembly was called for Friday. Dr. Nugent was in charge and after making the announcements, turned the meeting over to Chester Buenning who introduced Lynn Zech to sing "The Gypsy Trail". The students were then treated to scene one, act two of the "Little Minister", featurin Prof. Ramay, Mrs. Holgate and Mrs. Barnes. Following the presentation of the sketch, the women students were excused and instructions were given the boys who were to carry torches in the parade Friday evening. THE QUEEN'S GIFTS The following is a list of the gifts presented to Queen Lavonne at the coronation exercises: Northern State Teachers College pin from Howling Echo; A. C. E. pin from Association of Childhood Education; locket with Normal crest from Alumni; necklace from W. S. G. A. cabinet; lovely table scarf from Beaux Arts Club; dance hanky, from a Friend. THANK YOU A word of appreciation for the Gypsy Day lay-out as given in the Thursday's Aberdeen American and News is deserved. No efforts were spared to set forth the various activities of the day and the entire presentation was all that the most enthusiastic booster could ask. We appreciate such cooperation on the part of our local paper and wish to express this appreciation to both the editor and all others concerned, VIRGILIO LAZZARI Basso CHESTER BUENNING General Chairman Gypsy Day is over for 1932, but the memories will continue to linger. It was a great success because everybody cooperated. It would be a difficult task to distribute due praise to everyone concerned, but to Chester Buenning, general chairman, and to each member of his committee, should go unstinted applause. Those working on this committee were Herman Gruhn, Barbara Anderson, Josephine Brainard, Josephine Gutz, Robert Blanchard; Prof. Lloyd Spencer, Prof. E. Kenneth Baillie, Miss Grace McArthur, Prof. P. J. Harkness, and Mr. Harold Fowler. CROWD IS LARGEST EVER Colorful Coronation Is First Event; City Enjoys Parade: Buffalo Barbecue Is Novel Event; Mammoth Dance Closes a Perfect Day The 17th annual Gypsy Day at N. S. T. C. started with a wind from the northwest just strong enough to make it interesting for float makers. Any paper which was not tacked on well, and even some which seemed to he fastened securely, went with the wind. The clear sky and the sunshine made it otherwise an ideal Gypsy Day for all Alma Mater's children to return home, and many did. Gypsies of all types and complexions were to be seen; the blonde-haired ones were among the attractive ones as well as the traditional brunettes. Bands were gathering - Redfield, Groton High School and the Huron College bands were present in addition to our own band. Everywhere, people were greeting each other. Many alumni gathered for the Homecoming. The red and green lights and other decorations carried out the Gypsy spirit. The campus was a weaving mass of red, yellow, in fact all the colors of the rainbow, arrayed in the gypsiest costumes. Cars filled with people, and people walking, came for the most successful Gypsy Day in Northern's history. Lavonne Is Crowned The coronation of Lavonne Parrott as the seventeenth Gypsy Queen was the major event in the morning's program. A large crowd had gathered in the auditorium to witness the crowning by Governor Green, and the presentation of Eldor Hafnor as Marshal and the queen's escort. The coronation was an impressive affair amid its beautiful setting in a Gypsy tent near Smolensk. The first number on the program was a musical selection by the string orchestra. Following this was the tribal conclave with Yonka, mother of the Russian tribes, taken by Bernice Remde, the (Continued on Page 2) H. C. JEWETT SPEAKS Speaker Outlines Work of Reconstruction Finance Corporation Mi.. H. C. Jewett, who has been a prominent business man in Aberdeen for 50 years, was assembly speaker Tuesday. The subject of his talk was the recent Reconstruction Finance meeting in Washington, D. C., in which he. together with Mr. Hollister of Sioux Falls, represented this Fedcral. Reserve District. The Reconitruction Finance Corporation, explained Mr. Jewett, was strictly nonpolitical, was made up of business men and had as its purpose the advancement of funds to assist the present conditions throughout the United States, The Secretary of the Treasury is a member of the Board which has advisory boards for making loans in every Federal District and has 700 people in its employ. The money is handled in a most businesslike manner. Every cent must be repaid, stated Mr. Jewett. While in Washington, Mr. Jewett had a conference with Secretary of Agriculture Hyde whom he questioned as to the future of agriculture. Mr. Hyde was not at all optimistic as to a better price on wheat because of the large surplus which we have on hand. Mr. Jewett stated that the R. F. C. ;s considering the financing of foreign countries in order to make it possible for them to buy our surplus. Through examples of the effects of depression in Cuba, Brazil, Japan and England, Mr. Jewett showed that the United States could be in a much worse condition. To show that here in our own state we are not "doomed to failure" he reminded us that South Dakota has a net bonded debt of only 3'2'; of its assessed valuation and that 82Y of the taxes in Brown County was paid last April. That the R. F. C. is functioning well is shown by the fact that South Dakcta has received a loan of $150,- 000 and Brown County has received a loan of $5,000. Mr. Jewett closed his comprehensive and thoroughly interesting discussion of his visit to Washington by stating that the R. F. C. has been of "untold and valuable help in bringing back the country to a normal basis." MEMORIAL SERVICES ARE HELD FOR MRS. ANDERSON A very fitting and touching service in memory of Mrs. David Allen Anderson was held in assembly, Thursday morning, Dean Milton E. Nugent presiding. Mr. Lukken led in the singing of a hymn, following which a duet was sung by Elnore and Arlene Roush. Dr. Nugent then presented the Rev. A. Elmer Moe, pastor of the Bethlehem Lutheran Church, who conducted the worship. The theme of his memorial address was, "Verily, if a man die, he shall live again." Following the address Prof. Marc Cleworth sang "Our Father, Because Thou Art in Heaven." Mrs. Leroy Crawford, who knew Mrs. Anderson intimately, spoke briefly recounting incidents which revealed many of the excellent characteristics of our departed friend. All classes were dis-missed for the rest of the morning. MRS. DAVID ALLEN ANDERSON PASQUE PICTURES NEXT Now that Gypsy Day is over our attention should be turned to many ether things. Among these is the Pasque picture campaign for the classes. Josephine Brainard is editor of this section and will appreciate definite cooperation among the class presidents in urging all members to have their pictures taken for the Pasque. Those who wish the same picture used this year which was used last year must inform the Publicity Office of the fact. Freshmen who have good high school pictures from last year can use these for the Pasque if they so desire. They should be brought to the Publicity Office as soon as convenient. Seniors should have their pictures taken in cap and gown. ANNOUNCER INSTALLED An electric announcing system was installed on Johnson Field so that those attending the football game between Northern and Huron College might receive a play by play account of the game. The apparatus is similar to that which was used for broadcasting the Washington Bicentennial Pageant last spring. It amplifies the speaker's voice so that he can be heard from any point near the field. Announcers for the game were Marc Cleworth, N. H. Mewaldt and Karl Hansen. ALL-SCHOOL PLAY IS SET FOR DEC. 8 AND 9 "An Enemy of the People" by the great Norwegian dramatist, Henrick Ibsen, has been chosen for the all-school play and will be given in the college auditorium the nights of December 8 and 9. The cast has not been definitely chosen, but a reading rehearsal was held last Monday night. People wishing to try out for parts may do so by arrangement with Prof. Ramay of the dramatic department. The play is full of satire, pathos and subtle comedy. The theme depicts the eternal conflict between the mob and the individual. It is in reality a thinly veiled allegory of Ibsen's treatment at the hands of the Norwegian public. It should prove to be an exciting and educational drama for college theatre-goers. Wolves vs, Pointers Tomorrow Night CULP EDITS MAGAZINE The October-November issue of the Rural Educator, educational periodical published by the Hub City School Supply Company, is an election issue. The issue contains facts concerning the coming election including a government directory, the number of electoral votes of each state, a resume of the platforms of each party and many other interesting facts for children who are attending rural schools. The last few pages of the booklet have been set aside for an election chart which will show the officers who are elected, from the President down to the minor county officials. This is to be filled in by the school children after election. M. M. Guhin is editor of the Rural Educator. Prof. Culp was in charge of this particular issue. STRING TRIO ORGANIZED A college string trio has been organized by Prof. Walther Pfitzner. It is the first organization of this kind at Northern for several years. The members are Susanne Pfitzner, piano; Irving .Boekelheide, violin; and David Lane, cello. It is planned that this musical group will appear on several occasions during the year.

NUMBER 5 WOLVES vs. POINTERS, FRIDAY NIGHT-COME AND CHEER FOR NORTHERN 17th ANNUAL GYPSY DAY IS HUGE SUCCESS WOLVES DOWN SCALPERS IN GYPSY DAY CLASSIC SCORE IS 13 TO 0 Leland Scores On 70 Yard Dash and Gorder Makes Counter By Pass After the first half of rather roughshod football, the Northern Wolves got under way to thoroughly trounce Huron by a score of 13 to 0 in the annual Gypsy Day tilt. Cy Leland, Northern's mammoth fullback, started the rally when he intercepted a Scalper pass in the third quarter and ran 70 yards for a touchdown behind perfect blocking. Leland also kicked the extra point. Shortly after the kickoff, Captain Eliasen blocked a Huron punt and Northern received the ball on the 12 yard line. A pass from Willard to Gorder was good for the second touchdown, but the kick for the point failed. A very peculiar happening occurred . during the third period when Northern scored the two touchdowns of the game. After the quarter was over it was found that the gains from scrimmage was a minus eleven. Huron made one rally in the fourth quarter when they marched to Northern's 14 yard line, but lost the ball on downs. Stewart seemed to be the only Hursn man who could gain through Northern's line; however, both teams had very strong lines, both defensively and offensively. Leland and Nichols, Northern's mainstays in the backfield, were consistent gainers through Huron's line. Nichols also showed some very effective blocking. Captain Eliasen played his usual heads-up game in the Northern line with Williams, Moore, and Art John- ;on giving him excellent support. Lewis Terpstra, Huron's mammoth tackle and captain of the Huron eleven, was very effective in the Huron line. During the entire game Huron had the edge on Northern in kicking and passing, but was decidedly out-played in line plays and end runs. Hard Time Getting Started Nichols kicked off and Stahl grabbed the ball and travelled 22 yards before being stopped. Unable to gain (Continued on Page 2) NORTHERN WILL ATTEND PRESS ASSOCIABON Augustana College at Sioux Falls will be host to the College Press Asxciation meeting this year, November 4 and 5, according to Miss Lillian Larson, secretary of the organization. Northern State Teachers College will send two delegates to the meeting this year from the student body. Dr. J. C. Lindberg, state adviser of the organization, will accompany the delegates, Sylvan Moe, newly-elected editor- in-chief of the Pasque, and Robert Tiffany, business manager of the Exponent, will represent Northern at Lhe conference. Last year this meeting was held at Northern. WOLVES PLAY POINTERS Two Unbeaten Conference Teams Will Fight For a Victory Fri. Night Friday night the Northern Wolves will meet the Southern Pointers in the hardest game in the conference for either team so far this year. Starting at 7:30 the game will provide plenty of thrills for anybody interested in athletics. As far as comparative scores go, Northern has a decided edge. Southern played Huron in an early game and was tied 0-0, while Northern holds a clean cut 13-0 victory over the Scalpers. However, Southern mopped Eastern 19-0 and then tripped Sioux Falls 20-0 in consecutive games. Neither team has been scored on in conference competition. Southern's strong offense and Northern's smooth working backfield hooked up with fine defenses will make the game an interesting affair to witness. ALUMNI HAVE LUNCHEON A group of alumni met in the cafeeria, Saturday noon, for the annual Gypsy Day luncheon. The meeting was short because of the limited time. Katherine and Carol Van Walker entertained the alumni with violin and piano numbers. At the close of the luncheon, Frank Kraft, president of the association, gave a brief talk, welcoming all the alumni present and hoping to have a similar luncheon next year. Margaret Brown, chairman, Beatrice Lindberg and Calvin Messinger acted as a committee in charge of the luncheon. COLLEGE MOURNS DEATH OF MRS. D. A. ANDERSON FACULTY ATTEND FUNERAL Services Held and Interment Made at Lamoni, Ia., Early Home of Deceased "You have met and conquered Death. And so, you are more wonderful Than when your bosom rose and fell Instinct with breath." Our beloved friend, Mrs. David Allen Anderson, has conquered death; death has not conquered her. She was among us for only a brief time, but we all learned to love her, and we are confident that she loved us, for love begets love. Hers was a kindly, sweet, considerate and generous personality. It was a pleasure to do a small favor for her, for in her appreciation she made you feel as if you had done something really worth while. As a hostess she was hospitable and gracious. She was patrician-born, always dignified, with an enviable poise in her manner. As a teacher she was dearly loved by her pupils as was presented in emphatic testimony in the funeral address by one of her former students. To our physical eye she has apparently gone; to our spiritual vision she is still among us, for God is a Spirit and Spirit is everywhere. Mrs. Anderson, before her marriage, was Miss Roxana Gaylord. She was born February 1, 1873 at Tabor, Iowa. The family moved to Lamoni, Iowa, in 1894. During her stay in Lamoni she served as a member of the grade and high school faculties and later was on the staff of Graceland College. Mrs. Anderson passed away in a Des Moines hospital Tuesday morning where she had been receiving treatment for some time. She had apparently entirely recovered from former disabilities and was at her home for several months. Last May she was found to be suffering with a severe case of high blood pressure and went back to the hospital where she has since been confined. She suffered a paralytic stroke last week and Dr. Anderson was called. When he arrived she was in a condition of coma from which she did not recover. The body was brought to Lamoni Tuesday accompanied by Dr. Anderson and her sister, Mrs. W. J. Mather, of Des Moines. Funeral services were held at the White Home in Lamoni, Thursday morning at 10:30. Music was furnished by a mixed quartet from Graceland. College. Burial was made in Rose Hill cemetery. The funeral service was conducted by W. E. Prall, a business man of Lamoni, who had attended the sixth grade under Mrs. Anderson and later attended Graceland College when she was an instructor there. Mr. Prall gave a (Continued on Page 2) COMING EVENTS Piano Recital Springfield, here Virgin() Lazzari Violin Recital ___Oct. 20 _ Oct. 21 _ __Oct. 24 Oct. 27 Augustana, here Oct. 28 Y. W.

However, Southern mopped Eastern 19-0 and then tripped Sioux Falls 20-0 in consecutive games. Neither team has been scored on in conference competition. Southern's strong offense and Northern's smooth working backfield hooked up with fine defenses will make the game an interesting affair to witness. ALUMNI HAVE LUNCHEON A group of alumni met in the cafeeria, Saturday noon, for the annual Gypsy Day luncheon. The meeting was short because of the limited time.

ANDERSON FACULTY ATTEND FUNERAL Services Held and Interment Made at Lamoni, Ia., Early Home of Deceased "You have met and conquered Death. And so, you are more wonderful Than when your bosom rose and fell Instinct with breath." Our beloved friend, Mrs. David Allen Anderson, has conquered death; death has not conquered her. She was among us for only a brief time, but we all learned to love her, and we are confident that she loved us, for love begets love. Hers was a kindly, sweet, considerate and generous personality. It was a pleasure to do a small favor for her, for in her appreciation she made you feel as if you had done something really worth while. As a hostess she was hospitable and gracious. She was patrician-born, always dignified, with an enviable poise in her manner. As a teacher she was dearly loved by her pupils as was presented in emphatic testimony in the funeral address by one of her former students. To our physical eye she has apparently gone; to our spiritual vision she is still among us, for God is a Spirit and Spirit is everywhere. Mrs. Anderson, before her marriage, was Miss Roxana Gaylord. She was born February 1, 1873 at Tabor, Iowa. The family moved to Lamoni, Iowa, in 1894. During her stay in Lamoni she served as a member of the grade and high school faculties and later was on the staff of Graceland College. Mrs. Anderson passed away in a Des Moines hospital Tuesday morning where she had been receiving treatment for some time. She had apparently entirely recovered from former disabilities and was at her home for several months. Last May she was found to be suffering with a severe case of high blood pressure and went back to the hospital where she has since been confined. She suffered a paralytic stroke last week and Dr. Anderson was called. When he arrived she was in a condition of coma from which she did not recover. The body was brought to Lamoni Tuesday accompanied by Dr. Anderson and her sister, Mrs. W. J. Mather, of Des Moines. Funeral services were held at the White Home in Lamoni, Thursday morning at 10:30. Music was furnished by a mixed quartet from Graceland. College. Burial was made in Rose Hill cemetery. The funeral service was conducted by W. E.
