Northern Wolves Down Ellendale Pedagogues SCORE IS 25 TO 7 North,ern's Offensive Is Surprise To All ; Large Crowd See Opening Game Northern's 1935 grid forces made an auspicious debut when they clawed the Ellendale Teachers for a 25-7 victory in their opening engagement at Johnson Field Wednesday night. Two deadly offensive thrusts in the opening stanza settled the issue in Northern's favor. The Wolves lost little time in getting their attack un-der way and before the season was many minutes old they had scored their first touchdown. Ellendale kick-ed- off and Northern took possession of the ball in their own territory. Aft-er three offensive thrusts had failed to net a first down, Pierce placed a beautiful punt back of the Ellendale 10-yard mark and Trux Clement down-ed the ball on the seven yard stripe Ellendale's pedagogues attempted to punt out of danger but Winjum re-turned a short kick, 28 yards, to the Ellendale seven-yard line. A few mo ments later he crashed over the final chalk mark for the first tally of the new season. An attempted conversion by a placement kick was hurried and went wide of the goal posts and North-ern assumed a 6-0 lead. Showing no let-up in their vicious offensive drive, t h e Northerners scored again before the period had ended. Ellendale again decided to kick-off and after the kick had been returned to the Northern 47-yard stripe, Martz, doing a neat piece of shifty open field running, lugged the ball 21 yards to the North Dakotan's :;2-yard mark. Pierce then passed to Ray a few inches short of a touch-down and a moment later Ray batter-ed his way over the goal line for an-other counter. The extra point was converted on a pass from Pierce to Weidenbach. Ellendale's Dusties launched_a count- . er offensive in the second canto ana controlled the ball most of the per-iod, drawing within one touchdown of Northern before the half had ended. Ackert's punt, which went out of bounds on the Northern 2-yard stripe paved the way for the score. The Wolves attempted to kick out of dan-ger and Ellendale returned to the 29- yard line. Striegel then tossed a pass to Evanson for Ellendale's only mark-er. The same Striegel-to-Evenson aer-ial combination accounted for the ex-tra point. Coach Carberry's forces ended the scoring in the last half with a touch-down each quarter. Hendrickson blocked an Ellendale punt which was recovered by Northern on the North Dakotan's 21-yard mark. Pierce pass-ed to Martz in the shadow of the goal line and Martz toted the ball over for the third counter. An attempted pass to convert the extra point was incom-plete. The fourth quarter touchdown came from a sustained offensive drive led by fullback Kaiser. Kaiser ac-counted for the score with a short plunge. A line-smash was tried to bring the total number of points to 26 but fell short and Northern was awarded the victory by a 25-7 tally. N6rthern's offensive showing was heartening to all her followers. It had bee the general impression that Northern would be weak on offense and strong on defense this year but the rense was clicking in acceptable fashion in the opening contest. Alumni Bulletin Is Being Planned M . Harriet Popowski, President of the . S. T. C. Alumni Association, is maki g plans for an active year for that rganization. Within a short time rthe first bulletin of the year will be p4blished and distributed to all al-umni. About the first of January the Association expects to distribute cop-ies of an Alumni Directory, which is being; compiled at this time. Recently Mrs. Popowski appointed an executive committee, of which the following per-sons are members: R. W. Kraushaar, Pierre; Louis Anderson, Aberdeen, and Genevieve Keller, Aberdeen. This committee will be assisted by another selected from the faculty, composed of Mr. Roderick Ross, Mr. N. H. Me-waldt and Mr. E. L. Bersagel. All alumni are urged to join the Association. The dues are one dollar per year, which may be sent to Mrs. Harriet Popowski, 1122 N. Main St., Aberdeen, South Dakota, or to Mr. Roderick Ross, Financial Secretary at Northern. Alumni are asked to keep in mind the banquet which will be held at Mitchell, South Dakota, on the even-ing of November 26, during the S. D. E. A. Convention. Many Bands Invited High School bands from Aberdeen Central, Redfield, Mobridge, Hecla, Groton, Ipswich, Selby and Northville have been invited to participate in the Gypsy Day activities on October 12. The bands will march in the colorful morning parade, will combine in a mass concert at 1:30 P. M. under the direction of Professor Goodsell, of the Northern Music Staff, and will furnish music during the football battle be-tween the Northern Wolves and the South Dakota School of Mines. Ray-mond Hatch, freshman representative to the Gypsy Day committee, has been designated chairman of the band com-mittee. GEORGE HART President Student Council Professor Dennery To Lecture Oct. 3-4 IS EXPERT ECONOMIST Noted Traveller Will Spend Two Days At Northern In General Lectures and Class Work The first number of Northern's 1935- 36 Lecture Course will be presentea October 3-4 by Professor Etienne Den-nery, expert in international econom-ics. Professor Dennery has had wide op-portunity for travel and study in all -parts of the world. After receiving a University Agregation in 1926, the University of Paris awarded him a Kahn Traveling Fellowship. Travel-ing as Kahn Fellow he visited Seattle, Chicago, and other American cities. In 1932 Professor Dennery went to Manchuria as economic expert of the Lytton Commission sent out by the League of Nations. On his retina from Manchuria he again visited the United States. His third visit to the United States was in 1933, on his way to Banff, where he was sent as a dele-gate to the Institute of Pacific Rela-tions. At present he is professor at the Ecole Libre des Sciences Politiques and at the Institut des Hautes Etudes Internationale of Paris. Prof. Dennery is the author of a number of publications consisting or a series of thirty lectures given at the European Centre of the Carnegie En-dowment for International Peace. He speaks English fluently and distinctly. CAMPUS INFORMATION Many improvements have been made on the buildings and campus of Northern during the summer, as re-ported by Mr. LeRoss Morris, Super-intendent of Buildings and Grounds. Besides the usual cleaning, some twelve or fifteen rooms in Graham Hall were painted and plastered, and all the floors and woodwork were var-nished. The floor, too, of the Spaf-ford gymnasium has been sanded and filled with cement filler. In the interests of economy, the old ten-inch steam line leading into the Industrial Arts Building was repair-ed and a new, three-inch line laid with it. The smaller pipe is fed by the otherwise waste steam of the heating pump exhaust and will be sufficient to heat the building in mild weather. For purposes of filing, estimating repairs, and figuring overhead, a corn-plete record was made of all the build-ings and their contents. The cubic feet of all rooms and the blackboard and wall space were measured, and the number of windows, ventilators, chairs and other articles of furniture was re-corded. The survey was extended even to the kitchens and storerooms, and it is thought that the records thus made will save much time and trouble in the future when such information is for any reason desired. Other improvements that may be mentioned are the construction of a gravel walk between Spafford and Lincoln Halls, the latticework by the greenhouse, and the painting of the flagpole, seemingly to harmonize with the off-campus water tank. Some time in the future, Mr. Morris stated, it is planned to tear up the road by the Industrial Arts Building and landscaping the entire area from there to the Administration Building. That work, as most of the rest has been, will probably be done largely by students working for tuition or board. President Lawrence Announces Lectures NINE NUMBERS PLANNED Themes Vary From Snakes and Science Lecttres To Dancing and Politics The Lecture Course offered by Northern State Teachers College for 1935-36 will consist of a variety of interesting and instructive numbers, as announced by President Lawrence. On Oct. 3-4 Prof. Eitienne Dennery, world-famous economist, will give a series of lectures on the subjects of French opinion of democracy and Fas-cism, France's foreign policy in Eur-ope, the economy of Manchuria, and political parties in France. Sydney R. Montague will, on Octo-ber 8, tell of his experiences in the Arc-tic region where he adopted the Eski-mo's mode of living, or "went native. - Mr. Montague brings with him a won-derful stage display of authentic, Arc-tic- exploror clothing and equipment. The first musical number, consisting of William Lee, tenor; Florence Hiller, violinist; and lvamae Crouse, pianist, will be presented November 15.

Miss Hiller has had many years of experience on the concert platform. In a new and significant lecture, Dr. Ethan Colton, on December 4, will dis-cuss the New Deals, a la Lenin, Mus-solini, Hitler, and Roosevelt. Dr. Col-ton has visited the European countries of which he speaks, many times, and has had opportunity for first-hand knowledge of his subject. The Ambassador Quartet, appearing in February, present an unusual mu-sical program. This male quartet of singers and bell ringers have been re-ceived with enthusiasm wherever they have presented their numbers. They were so well received here last year that they were ask2u to return. The Frazer-James dance group have a program consisting of dancing ana music covering the history of the Dance from early Grecian to modern German. Costumes, special scenery, and unusual lighting effects are fea-tures of this program. The group will appear February 11. Are you afraid of snakes ? March 5, Lew Johnson will demonstrate with live specimens that there is no need to fear members of the snake family. According to Mr. Johnson, snakes are your friends. School children safely handle snakes after Mr. Johnson's demonstration. "The Wonders of Modern Science" is the title of a lecture by Harry C. White to be given April 7. Mr. White gives actual demonstrations of the science of color, chemistry, and light. Some of the unusual paraphernalia with which he demonstrates are the Bronoscope, smallest lamp in the world, and the Cathautograph or Ra-dio Pen. Kirby Page, contributing editor of CHRISTIAN CENTURY, presents the last number April 9-10. Mr. Kirby holds a first rank position as lecturer on international affairs.

The Exponent Northern State Teachers College VOLUME XX XIV ABERDEEN, SOUTH DAKOTA, SEPTEMBER 26, 1935 NUMBER 2 Wolves To Clash Against Spearfish Yellowjackets GAME SATURDAY NIGHT REHERDA W. GROOM School Nurse Playgoers League Comes To Aberdeen LAWRENCE IS OFFICER Organization Plans To Sponsor Locally Broadway Hits ; Stu-dents Especially Favored Campus dramatic addicts at North-ern State Teachers College, and dram-atic fans in and around Aberdeen, will be given an excellent opportunity to see some of Broadway's finest play productions this winter if present plans go through. A branch of the National Playgoers League has been organized in Aber-deen with M. C. Lawson as president; Dr. C: G. Lawrence, as vice president; Mrs. John Jackson as secretary; and F. B. Stiles as treasurer. The board of directors is made up of a group of prominent Aberdeen citizens. The idea of the Playgoers League of Aberdeen is to bring at least three Broadway hit productions to Aberdeen during the coming months. This will be accomplished by what is known as the membership plan. Under this plan adults may join the League by paying a $5.00 fee, for which they are entitled to attend all three of the presenta-tions. Students may secure the same membership privileges for $1.50, a real bargain. There will be no extra charge for reserved seats or anything else. Single admissions to non- League members will range in cost from $1.00 to $2.00 for each perform-ance. For non-League students the price each time will be 75c. Among the plays that are included on the list of possible selections fog the performances in Aberdeen are "The Bishop Misbehaves," "Big Heart-ed Herbert," "Italian Fascisti Sing-ers," and several other famous pro-ductions. Van Buren Perry Is Assembly Speaker Constitution Day was observed at Northern, Tuesday, September 17, with Judge Van Buren Perry of Aber-deen delivering a scholarly address during assembly period. Judge Perry traced the 148 years of history of the constitution from 1787 down to the present date. He al-so described graphically events lead-ing up to the adoption of the Consti-tution. Judge Perry took the stand that the Constitution should be amended only after the greatest possible delibera-tion. He advocated no specific consti-tutional changes and attacked no pro-posed amendment but urged that ev-eryone give the matter deep thought before voting to alter the fundamental law of the land. Professor Hiett Is Assembly Speaker Dr. Herbert Hiett, speaker at the assembly period, last Tuesday, related some of his experiences on a trip which he and Mrs. Hiett made to Eng-land this summer. Several interest-ing shipboard incidents were related, among them the ship's going througL a field of icebergs. Dr. Hiett also told of visiting the city of London, and de-scribed the famous town as "sprawling along the Thames" with no particular center of activity such as is found in the great American cities. Visiting the house where Geoffrey Chaucer lived was one of the high points of the trip to Dr. Hiett. A visit to the fam-ous Tower of London and to the Church of St. Mary from which the Bow-Bells called Dick Whittington and his cat back to London were also de-scribed. First Conference Game For Both Teams ; Northern Will Try To Get Revenge For Last Year's Score Of 8 To 0 The lid will be blown off the 1935 South Dakota Intercollegiate football title chase Friday night when the col-orful Yellow Jackets from Spearfish Normal journey to Aberdeen to do battle with the Northern Wolves at Johnson Field in a night contest. The Yellow-Jacketed Warriors will be making their first stand in defense of their portion of the 1934 state champ-ionship while Northern will be opening her campaign for 1935 laurels. Spearfish, ably tutored by Coach Paul Rose, has set up an enviable reputa-tion in State Conference circles in the past few years, and will be attempting to strike a winning pace in their quest of another pennant. Northern, on the other hand, will be striving for an up-set victory in her drive to re-establish herself as a leading power in the state conference, after a short period in the lower regions of the circuit standings. Northern's chances of accomplishing an upset over her favored West River rivals will rest largely on Coach Car-berry's ability to find able replace-ments for Pierce, injured halfback; and Christenson, stellar guard, who is also on the incapacitated list. Both men were injured in the State College game last Saturday. Not only will Northern be trying to get off on the right foot in the cam-paign for the 1935 gonfalon; she will also be seeking revenge for the 8-0 beating she suffered at the hands of the westerners last Gypsy Day. The Wolves of 1935 are a pack of fighters, as evidenced by their cour-ageous showing at Brookings Satur-day. They stand a fine chance of opening their league schedule with an upset win over their highly touted foes. Most state sport critics have es-timated the Wolves as the underdogs in the coming fray and that is the po-sition from which they fight the hard-est. QUEEN AND MARSHAL DETERMINED FRIDAY Petitions for the candidates for Gypsy Day Queen and Marshal were available last Friday as the annual campaign gained momentum. A mini-mum of fifty signatures is required to make the petitions valid, and certain other qualifications had first to be dis-charged by applicants. These requi-sites included : the candidate must be of the junior or senior classes and have successfully carried twelve hours of work the previous quarter in school. Traditionally all candidates are re-quested to possess dark hair; no bru-nettes of the chemical variety would be accepted, it was explained. On Friday, Sept. 27, a special as-sembly under the chairmanship of George Hart, president of the student council, will be held in the auditorium. All students are urged to attend and support their choices for Queen and Marshal, for the results of Friday's balloting will determine who will be honored. WOLVES LOSE HARD GAME TO RABBITS State College's fleet flock of Jack-rabbits ran rampant over a courageous crew of Carberry Clawers from North-ern in a practice skirmish at Brook-ings, Saturday. State College came out on the long end of a 33-0 count. The defeat was not the stiffest jolt suffered by the Northerners during the afternoon's play. Not even the most rabbid rooters for the Wolves had expected them to successfully match points with the fast-stepping (Continued on Page 4) Spearfish, football Sept. 27 Prof. Dennery, 1. c.

Professor Hiett Is Assembly Speaker Dr. Herbert Hiett, speaker at the assembly period, last Tuesday, related some of his experiences on a trip which he and Mrs. Hiett made to Eng-land this summer. Several interest-ing shipboard incidents were related, among them the ship's going througL a field of icebergs. Dr. Hiett also told of visiting the city of London, and de-scribed the famous town as "sprawling along the Thames" with no particular center of activity such as is found in the great American cities. Visiting the house where Geoffrey Chaucer lived was one of the high points of the trip to Dr. Hiett. A visit to the fam-ous Tower of London and to the Church of St. Mary from which the Bow-Bells called Dick Whittington and his cat back to London were also de-scribed. First Conference Game For Both Teams ; Northern Will Try To Get Revenge For Last Year's Score Of 8 To 0 The lid will be blown off the 1935 South Dakota Intercollegiate football title chase Friday night when the col-orful Yellow Jackets from Spearfish Normal journey to Aberdeen to do battle with the Northern Wolves at Johnson Field in a night contest. The Yellow-Jacketed Warriors will be making their first stand in defense of their portion of the 1934 state champ-ionship while Northern will be opening her campaign for 1935 laurels. Spearfish, ably tutored by Coach Paul Rose, has set up an enviable reputa-tion in State Conference circles in the past few years, and will be attempting to strike a winning pace in their quest of another pennant. Northern, on the other hand, will be striving for an up-set victory in her drive to re-establish herself as a leading power in the state conference, after a short period in the lower regions of the circuit standings. Northern's chances of accomplishing an upset over her favored West River rivals will rest largely on Coach Car-berry's ability to find able replace-ments for Pierce, injured halfback; and Christenson, stellar guard, who is also on the incapacitated list. Both men were injured in the State College game last Saturday. Not only will Northern be trying to get off on the right foot in the cam-paign for the 1935 gonfalon; she will also be seeking revenge for the 8-0 beating she suffered at the hands of the westerners last Gypsy Day. The Wolves of 1935 are a pack of fighters, as evidenced by their cour-ageous showing at Brookings Satur-day. They stand a fine chance of opening their league schedule with an upset win over their highly touted foes. Most state sport critics have es-timated the Wolves as the underdogs in the coming fray and that is the po-sition from which they fight the hard-est. QUEEN AND MARSHAL DETERMINED FRIDAY Petitions for the candidates for Gypsy Day Queen and Marshal were available last Friday as the annual campaign gained momentum. A mini-mum of fifty signatures is required to make the petitions valid, and certain other qualifications had first to be dis-charged by applicants. These requi-sites included : the candidate must be of the junior or senior classes and have successfully carried twelve hours of work the previous quarter in school. Traditionally all candidates are re-quested to possess dark hair; no bru-nettes of the chemical variety would be accepted, it was explained. On Friday, Sept. 27, a special as-sembly under the chairmanship of George Hart, president of the student council, will be held in the auditorium. All students are urged to attend and support their choices for Queen and Marshal, for the results of Friday's balloting will determine who will be honored. WOLVES LOSE HARD GAME TO RABBITS State College's fleet flock of Jack-rabbits ran rampant over a courageous crew of Carberry Clawers from North-ern in a practice skirmish at Brook-ings, Saturday. State College came out on the long end of a 33-0 count. The defeat was not the stiffest jolt suffered by the Northerners during the afternoon's play. Not even the most rabbid rooters for the Wolves had expected them to successfully match points with the fast-stepping (Continued on Page 4) Spearfish, football Sept. 27 Prof. Dennery, 1. c.
