Gault Presents Recital At Northwestern Univ. Northwestern University School of Music was the scene of a doctoral recital given on April 22 by Joyce Gault, a music instructor of Northern State Teachers College. This recital which was in partial fulfillment of the re-quirements for the degree of Doctor of Music, consisted of corn-positions by Claude Debussy and Maurice Ravel. Both these composers found in the piano their chief med-ium of musical expression; however their styles and techniques of writing for the piano were essentially differ-ent. Miss Gault received her B. A, in 1950 at Iowa State Teachers Col-lege and her Master's in Music at the Northwestern University in 1952. She was a private piano student of Gui Mombaerts, an instructor at Northwestern in 1953-1955. NSTC Graduate Writes Book Eleanor Cesander Jenks NSTC graduate Eleanor Cesander Jenks' book, The Forward Mouth and Other Poems, has been published by Pageant Press, Inc. of New York City. Mrs. Jenks is the daughter of Mrs. P. K. Cesander of the NSTC book store and the late Dr. P. K. Cesander; who was head of the psychology department and director of student publications at Northern up to his death in 1953. The Forward Mouth gives an insight into the tram-meling of spiritual values by the mechanization of the modern world. She pleads for an infusion of spirit in the world of machinery. The book treats of the conflict between God and evil and depicts the life of Jacob London who although reared in religious surroundings, shows ten-dencies of disbelief and rebellion in youth, which leads to his moral disintegration and develops into the feral unbridled torrent of his later life. Miserable and confused, his children bear the unhappy marks left by a man who ignored religious and social structures. When Jacob eventually finds the way to his own salvation, he realizes, tragically, he was responsible for his children's downfall. They, only, can release themselves from evil. The sins of the father are visited on the children, but the author makes clear that the father cannot redeem them as well. Mrs. Jenks was born at Stark-weather N. 'D. and earned her B.S. degree at Northern. masters de-gree in English and speech was ob-tained at Sacramento State College. BULLETIN Do Northern seniors want a class picnic? Voice your opinion at the class meeting on Wednesday, May 15, in Barn-103 at 7 p.m. Shakespeare's Birthday Party Is Well Attended The English Department staff en-tertained some eighty-five persons at a Shakespeare Birthday Party on Tues_ day, April 30. The party is an annual event held about the time of the year when Shakespeare was born. Sonia Knudson and Sylvia Jeffery, first and second place winners re-spectively of the Lighthall-Welsh es-say contest, read their prize-winning selections. Don Haas sang two num-bers. Dr. G. 0. Kelley spoke on a comedy version of "Hamlet" he had seen recently in St. Louis. Dr. Sinnia Billups introduced Elinor and Helen Strauss of Aberdeen who showed slides of their European tour. Robert W. Schreiber of the English Depart-ment staff welcomed the guests and introduced the program.

Auditors Recommend End To Student-Banking Discontinuance of the student-banking services offered at the NSTC Business Office has been recently re-commended by Charles J. Weibel and Jacob J. Becker, examiners for the state department. The recommenda-tion was made in the audit covering the period from Dec. 1, 1954, through Nov. 30, 1956. According to Harold Fowler, Busi-ness Manager, the business office has been operating with a shortage of personnel for the past two years. He explained that for the past 35 years this banking service has been con-sidered a business office function and that it had never been questioned in past audits. No decision has been reached as to whether student-banking shall or shall not be continued. Dr. Kelley Addresses Group "Design of Civilization" was the subject of the address Dr. G.O. Kelly, Chairman of the Division of Language and Literature, delivered at a recent banquet meeting of Delta Kappa Gamma sorority. Obtains Position In III. by Jack R. Simpson There exists an old saying that sooner or later all good ,things must come to an end. This particular ad-dage, is about to be proven true right here on Northern's campus. Dr. Manbeck Since September of 1952, the stu-dents and faculty of NSTC have en-joyed the outstanding services and broad smiles of Dr. Maurice W. Man-beck, Director of Admissions and stu-dent Personnel. For in spite of be-ing heavy laden with office duties, Dr. Manbeck maintains a pleasant grin for all who approach him. He is the type of man whom people en-joy working for and associating with— a man to be admired. After July 1, Northernites are go-ing to miss Dr. Manbeck about the campus. For at that time, he is de-departing for Charleston, Illinois Northern Day Is Lauded The 1957 Northern Day as praised in many favorable reports from the high sch000l superintendents in at-tendance. When interviewed, the sup-erintendents stated that the warmth and friendliness of Northern students impressed their high school charges very much. It was noted by some of the superintendents in the im-mediate area that many of their stu-dents had thought that they were more or less familiar with the or-ganization of NSTC, only to find that they had no idea of the scope of the courses offered. Kermit Wahl, General Chairman of Northern Day, estimated the atten-dance figure as being about 800, with 51 schools registered for the event. Mr. Wahl went on to say that plans for Northern Day 1958 are now un-der way and that with the lessons learned this year, the forthcoming Northern Day should be the best ever. where he will hold the office of re-gistrar at Eastern Illinois State Col-lege. I'm sure that the student body and faculty of Northern will agree with me that his leaving will con-stitute a grave loss to our institution-- not only the loss of a fine educator and efficient office holder, but also the loss of a fine, highly-respected individual from our campus and com-munity. Early Education After graduating from Little Falls High School at Little Falls Min-nesota, Dr. Manbeck chose to con-tinue his education at Hamline Uni-versity in St. Paul. His graduate stu-dies were carried on at the University of Minnesota where he received his M.A. dgree in education and psycho-logy in 1949 and his Ph. D. in 1954. As for former experience in ed-ucation, "Dr. Manbeck taught school at Lancaster, Minnesota from 1940- 4.1. In 1941-42 he taught at the Pillsbury Academy at Owatonna, Minn. At that time, Uncle Sam made a four-year bid for Dr. Manbeck's life. He entered the Quartermaster Corp as private in 1942—he was discharged in 1946 with the rank of Captain. Upon leaving the service, Dr. Manbeck returned to Owatonna where he taught in the Academy for another year. In 1948 Dr. Manbeck took over the office of Dean of Students at the University of Minnesota—a job at which he remained for a period of two years. The arrival of 1950 saw him accepting a new position—that of the Placement Office in the same university. In addition to his work with the Placement Office, Dr. Man-beck served as a part-time math in-structor at Hamline University. Sorry to Leave Although Dr. Manbeck is looking forward to his new job at Eastern Illinois State College, he expressed his sorrow at leaving Northern. "We have made a great many friends at Northern and throughout the Aber-deen area. The decision to change our home and leave all these friends was a hard one to make." "I will miss the presence of the colorful gypsy clan next fall," sighed Dr. Manbeck, "but moves as these inevitably bring about changes— changes which we must willingly ac-cept." For myself, as well as the faculty and student body of Northern State Teachers College, I offer a vote of thanks for all that Dr. Manbeck has done for us. To a man who has known the tingle of gypsy blood in his veins, the thrilling sensation of the brass ring dangling from his ear, a man who has worn the colored sash and jingling spangle for Northern for over five years, I offer a salute. To you, Dr. Manbeck, to your wife, Dorothy, and the children, we wish much success and happiness. Jean Perkins, 1957 Fairyland Queen, smiles as she reigns over a group of spellbound children. Fairyland, which is sponsored by the As-sociation for Childhood Education, was held in the college auditorium Sunday night. Statewide Industrial Arts Fair Here Friday
