The Exponent Northern Normal and Industrial School Vol. XX ABERDEEN, SOUTH DAKOTA, OCTOBER 1, 1921 No. 2 Boys, Beat Brookings; We're There With You! RICCARDO MARTIN TO OPEN LECTURE COURSE PROGRAM OF FINE ARTISTS Northern Normal and City Fine Arts Club to Join Forces as Last Year One of the finest combinations of talent ever put before the people of Aberdeen will be offered in the lec-ture course for the coming year. Dr. Foght, in behalf of the Northern Normal School, and Mrs. Madge King Johnston, in behalf of the Fine Arts Club, have signed contracts to bring to Aberdeen the following group of superlative entertainers during the school year 1921-1922. There is no question that in the group is some of the finest talent that any lyceum bureau affords. Riccardo Martin is rightly consid-ered the greatest American tenor. (Continued on page 3) EXTENSION SERVICE Over 300 Enrolled to Date—Ninety-five Per Cent Completed Courses The extension service offers the ambitious teacher or student two ways by which he may do work for full credit at the Normal School. Study centers will be established where there are six or more people who wish to enroll for the same course. Twenty-four actual hour periods of recitation will be required for the completion of a course of five hours' credit. The course will be given under the direction of the head of the department at the Normal School, who is responsible for the same course given in residence, but the local city superintendent or high school principal will act as the class leader and will aid the students in every way possible. Those who are unable to reach the study centers may do the work through correspondence. The entrance requirements for the extension courses are the same as those for the residence courses at the Normal School. High school graduates or those who have had equivalent training will be admitted to extension courses of college grade. The extension service is maintain-ed to help every progressive teacher in the state. In the past two years more than three hundrd teachers en-rolled in the extension service. Ninety-five per cent of those enrolled have completed their courses. This shows that the courses offered are proving their worth to the student. The new bulletins for the current year are just out. Anyone interested should send for one. "HIGH SCHOOL PEP" Java School Enters Field of Jour-nalism We are more than pleased to add a new exchange to our list. Volume one, number one, of High School Pep has just arrived as the official organ of the Java public schools. The paper is both neat and newsy. Keep coming! The paper is published under the direction of the superintendent, E. C. Giffin, an N. N. I. S. graduate. Mr. Giffin was in attendance here last summer working for his bachelor's degree, and was a member of the class in Journalism. Perhaps that has somethingto do with this new venture. Among the teachers of the Java schools we note the following N. N. I. S. people: E. C. Giffin,. superin-tendent; Genevieve Fargen, girls' athletics and assistant in high school; Rose Rissky, eighth grade; Freya Clement, seventh grade; Ra-chael Smart, third and fourth grades; Pearl Forbes, second grade; Rosella Hunter, primary grades. NORMALONIANS ORGANIZE Many Plans Are Outlined for a Suc-cessful Year The Normalonians have begun this year with more vim and pep than ever before. With Mr. Cummings , as director they are planning on a most progressive year. A meeting of the old members was held last Thurs-day evening, at which the following officers were elected: Hope Foght, president; Esther Hundstad. vice president; Eleanor C. March, secre-tary; and Ruby Grimes, treasurer. On the following afternoon they were entertained at the home of Mrs. Collinge, where a dainty lunch was served by the hostess. The girls were glad to renew acquaint-ances, as many of the old members of former years are back. The new members were chosen this week, and the club had its first practice Tuesday evening. A busi-ness meeting was held after the prac-tice. A uniform dress was decided upon by the girls. Tuesday evening from 7 to 8 was chosen for the prac-tice hour. List of Members First Soprano—Ferne Coacher, Ann Drage, Hope Foght, Gertrude Gullickson, Esther Hundstad, Eleanor March, Monica McNickle, Emma Shad.

Michigan, lecturing at the following places: Hillsdale, Adrian, Coldwa-ter, Three Rivers, Cassopolis, Hast-ings, Charlotte, and St. Johns.

Those who expect to enter should report to Mr. Speelman, director of Normal school athletics, who has the races in charge. Anyone, whether or not a resident of Aberdeen, is eligible to enter. The runners will be divided into two classes. The high school class is open to boys under 19 years old, and the college class is open to runners of 19 and over. The college class is handicapped by 15 seconds for each mile of the run, according to the Granger rules. Started in 1912 The cross-country races was origi-nated in 1912 by John Granger, and since then has been an annual event, with the exception of 1917, when, due to conditions existing during the war, the run was cancelled; in 1920 (Continued on page 3) ANNUAL PLAY •DAY Project Applauded in Current Maga-zine The following statement in regard to Brown county's annual play day held on the Normal campus last spring is clipped from an article pub-lished in the September number of The Playground, a magazine devoted to community service. The old stu-dents and faculty members will re-call the occasion and the crowd. It would be a good idea if the rural schools of the country would begin plans now for the next play day. The project is a part of the health program of -the Northern Normal and Industrial School, under the direc-tion of Mr. Speelman. He is assisted by L. B. Sipple of the department of rural education, and Miss Lucile Trott, county superintendent of Brown county. Aberdeen, South Dakota, Gives a Play Day for Rural Schools "On the morning of May 14, auto-mobiles loaded with school children, teachers, parents and lunch boxes came from many miles around Aber-deen, South Wkota. The occasion was the Brown County Rural School Play Day held on the grounds of the State Normal School. It was the first event of the kind in the county, but it will not be the last, in the opinion of those who attended. "If you had been driving by one of Brown county's country schools early in May you would probably have witnessed great activity. Some of the children might have been practicing the standing board jump, the running broad jump or the fifty yard dash. Others might have been chinning themselves on the horizon-tal bar, and others might have been engaged in a potato race, or perhaps (Continued on page 2) FORMER STUDENT KILLED Lester A. Senn, a former student of this school, was killed a few nights ago, when a car which he was driving turned over. The accident occurred about eight miles north of the city, and unfortunately is attrib-uted to reckless driving, as the ma-chine was going at a rate of seventy miles an hour when it turned over an embankment. Mr. Senn was re-garded as a splendid student and we all share in extending our sympathy to his relatives and friends who are left to mourn his untimely death. FIRST FOOTBALL GAME TODAY AT BROOKIN6S TEAM LEFT YESTERDAY Hard Battle Begins After One Week of Strenuous Practice Our football team left yesterday afternoon via the Northwestern for Brookings. Today they meet the State College team. The members of our team have been working hard and faith-fully under Coach Speelman, and have gone down to Brookings to win. They return Sunday on the 1 p. m. Northwestern. Do we know what to do? The line-up will probably be as follows: Byrne or Collins, r. e.; Amos, r. t.; Bachman or Morris, r. g.; Cooper, c.; Anderson, 1. g.;Freyburg, 1. t.; Jacobs or Remde, 1. e.; Wertman or Heinzelman, q. b.; Eberle or Olson, r. h.; Hughes or Art Cooper, 1. h.; Campbell, 1. b. CHATS ON MUSIC Riccardo Martin Ranks With the Best Riccardo Martin, America's great-est tenor, is to be in Aberdeen on the current lecture course. Probably no greater musical artist has ever ap-peared in this city and the students and faculty are to be congratulated on the chance of having him. He will be here on October 5. The fol-lowing clipping will be of interest to those who are musically inclined: Week-End Operas While Geraldine Farrar was enter-taining an overflowing audience at the Metropolitan on Saturday after-noon with her piquant Manon in Massenet's opera, Mme. displayed vocal art to another packed house of her admirers as Violetta in "La Traviatta," an opera which gave her a chance to exhibit her voice both in colorature and in sustained song. In the evening two American ten-ors, Riccardo Martin and Edward Johnson, and a new American so-prano, Frances Paperte, shared the honors with mere foreigners like Rosa Raisa and Titta Ruffo. The two last named appeared with Mr. Johnson in "I Pagliacci"; the others in "Cavalleria Rusticana." Miss Pa-perte made an agreeable impression at her debut; she sang the part of (Continued on page 3) PRICE IN OKLAHOMA Heads Manual Training and Athletics in Oklahoma School The following letter comes from Howard Price, A. B., '21, who is lo-cated at 217 E. Broadway, Eufola, Oklahoma: "I enclose a check for one dollar for a year's subscription to the Ex-ponent. "I am teaching manual training and athletics here in Eufola. "Eufola is a nice little city of 3,500 population, on the Jefferson High- Way, King's Trail, and Kansas, Mis-souri & Texas railroad. The Jeffer-son Highway and King's Trail are both hard surfaced through the county. Eufola has about four miles of cement pavement. "This is a fertile valley in the fork of the North and South Canada rivers. They raise cotton, sweet po-tatoes and watermelons most exten-ively, but there are numerous corn fields. "We played our first game of foot-ball yesterday with St. Joseph Col-lege of Muskogee, and won forty-four to nothing. We will play ten games and possibly eleven or twelve. This is a good football town and the whole town is back of the team."
