it has meant in purpose or fulfillment for 

you we hope you find a moving image of it 

here. The class of '38 presents this pictorial 

record of the Highlights of the year as represented 

by The Campus Scene, Directors at

I am happy to send a word of greeting to the Senior Class of the Northwest 

School. The years you have spent at the school have given you a wider vision and 

a deeper knowledge of the problems of the world, including those of agriculture. 

They have shown you how necessary it is that problems be considered in terms of 

facts and of tested experience. They have also shown you that men are more 

disposed to rely upon personal opinion, prejudice, and emotion than they are to 

rely upon careful study and intelligently formed judgments in deciding matters of 

public interest. 

One of the reasons for maintaining schools is that those who attend them will 

learn to weigh causes and to judge effects. Progress will be promoted and civlization 

advanced in proportion as educated persons benefit in later life by the lessons 

they learned in school. 

Sincerely yours, 

Lotus D. Coffman 

President

I hope that the class of 1938 is going out of the Northwest School with confidence 

in itself and when I say confidence I don’t mean conceit. I mean simply that 

I hope these years have not only grounded you firmly in subjects that will help you 

to gain a Living but in principles by which to live. I hope your work has revealed 

to you new sources of strength within yourselves and that it has rendered you 

thoughtfully aware of the weaknesses in yourselves that you must remedy or guard 

against with unsleeping vigilance. I never want to think of you in terms of more 

corn or better cows or spotless kitchens. I prefer to think of you in terms of 

sturdier characters and quickened consciences. 

Sincerely yours, 

n

You are about to leave the school where you have formed cherished friendships 

and gained numerous experiences. I hope the friendships will continue warm 

and intimate and thereby prove to be one of the great assets of your lives. I hope, 

too, that the experiences will stand out increasingly with the years because of their 

value in assisting you to develop better and more progressive methods of farming 

and rural living. Most of all I hope your total experience in the school will be of 

very great help in making adjustments which are relentlessly demanded by our 

constantly changing world.

To My Classmates: 

During the past two years it has been my privilege to be your president and 

with the help of our advisers I hope I have been a worthy one. No one could have 

asked for better spirit, co-operation, and genuine friendliness than you have all 

shown. We have spent many happy hours together and it is with some regret that 

we look forward to graduation; yet we realize that graduation means the completion 

of one lap of our preparation for life. As time marches on, may we each accept 

victories and defeats with the same splendid spirit we have displayed here at 

the Northwest School.

With every beat in the March of Time something vital and interesting has 

happened to enrich our life at the Northwest School. 

To Mr. William Promersberger, affectionately 

known as, “Bill”, we, the Senior class of 

’38, wish to dedicate the March of Time. During 

the two and one half years that he served as our 

Class Adviser, his friendliness, patience, and 

ability endeared him to us. While it is true that 

the Aggie Board especially misses our candid 

cameraman, the entire class feels the loss of our 

“Pa”. To pay a small tribute to him for the many 

services he has rendered us we wish to name him 

dedicatee of this section of our annual.

Captain Morris Dahl-Center. He successfully led his team-mates 

through a difficult twenty-game schedule. He proved to be an ideal 

captain. As a ball handler, as a scoring threat, and as a defensive 

performer Dahl established a great record. 

Melvin Brastad-Reserve. Not only his clever ball handling and his 

smooth playing but also his competitive spirit contributed to the 

successful season. Another year of service is ahead. 

Woodrow Evans-Guard. His second season as a regular. His fighting 

spirit, his shiftiness on the basketball court, and his determination 

to win, made him a great asset to the Aggie team. 

Lloyal Harris-Reserve. With one more season ahead he promises to 

be a valuable member of the next basketball edition of the Aggies. 

A good ball-handler, a dandy scoring threat. 

Clayton Isaacson--Reserve. His height and his ability to break loose 

and be a scoring threat were assets to the Aggies. His desire to 

win was a factor in the team’s success. One more year of service. 

Ivan Torfin-Forward. A clever floor-man. He broke up the defense 

and gained control of the ball to break up the opposition plays. 

Also a dandy offensive man. One more year of service ahead. 

James Lenes--Forward. A clever ball handler and a speed merchant 

down the basketball court. His quick pivots and shiftiness were 

great factors in the team’s success. One more year of service ahead. 

Lowell Lindberg--Reserve. A dandy defensive man. His team spirit 

aided the Aggies throughout the schedule. This was Lowell’s first 

year on the team. He proved to be very popular with his teammates. 

Roger Panzer--Guard. The fastest and best ball handler on the team. 

He was handicapped by injuries but his spectacular field goals contributed 

immensely to the Aggie victories. 

Curtis Riel-Reserve. A speed merchant. He was a scoring threat 

whenever in the game. His clever floor work and his determination 

to win were decided assets. Two more years of service ahead. 

Robert Sunderland-Reserve. His height was of great advantage to 

the team. His alertness and willingness aided the Aggies in their 

difficult schedule. This was Bob’s first year on the team. 

Donald LaPlante--Guard. His knack of getting out of tight spots 

and going down the floor pulled his team out of many difficult situations. 

His long shots worried the opposition. Two years of service 

ahead.

Front Row-Captain W. Weindorf, D. LaPlante, G Brandt, D. Handegaard. 

Captain Werner Weindorf. Short of stature but 

the spark-plug of the team. He was an efficient 

captain. 

Leonard Anda. His speed and ability kept the 

opponents guessing He was the pace-setter of 

the squad. 

Harold Anderson. His courage to keep going. 

made him a valuable member of the cross coun 

try squad. 

Anderson 

Glenn Brandt. A reliable runner who always fin 

ished the difficult two mile run. One more year 

ahead. 

Clarence Klug. With his long strides and remarkable 

staying power he proved to be very tough 

for the opposition. 

Leorton Lofstrand. His first year on the squad 

but his experiences make him a valuable man for 

next year’s meets. 

Lofstrand 

Nine candidates, led by Captain 

Werner Weindorf, reported for regular 

workouts of the cross-country 

squad. The 1937 season witnessed only 

one inter-school meet, that with the 

Central Aggies of St. Paul. When the 

two mile course on the Northwest 

campus had been run we were defeated 

by St. Paul, 20-35.

May, 1937, was the occasion for the silver wedding anniversary of three of the campus families. 

In honor of the occasion campus employees and residents held a surprise party for the celebrants. The 

honored guests were Supt. and Mrs. T. M. McCall, Mr. and Mrs. O. M. Kiser, and Mr. and Mrs. A. 

Sunderland, (pictured above). A mock wedding ceremony was staged during which time the three 

couples were re-wed by Mr. A. M. Foker as preacher. Miss Lois Lohn, English instructor, and Mr. R. 

J. Christgau were flower girl and boy respectively. J. W. Mlinar was the ring-bearer. Following the 

mock ceremony a lunch was served to all campus residents and employees.

Mornings are awful! Especially seven o’clock in the morning when the bells begin to ring 

and those kids above you decide to move furniture, clean house-or maybe they are just putting 

on their shoes, I don’t know. Anyway they make more noise than fifty freight trains ! Well, your 

Freshman roommate, who never misses breakfast, starts tearing around and you can’t sleep anyway, 

so the next best thing is to get up. You really should have pressed a skirt, but, oh, well, 

what’s a few wrinkles The clock says it’s seven twenty-five, your shoelace breaks, you can’t 

find a pin, your hair gets all tangled up in a curler and you have to cut off some of it, a button 

falls off your coat, your only pair of stockings develop a run, you can’t remember which bed your 

English book is under-those are only a few calamities that usually happen when you are in a 

hurry. When you finally get to breakfast, you are late so you have to march down to the other end 

of the dining hall and sit with nine Freshman boys. 

The clay is just beginning. When you reach Sewing Class you find that you’ve dropped 

about fifty stitches in your knitting and you have to rip it all out. You’ve barely set up your 

stitches again when the bell rings and it’s time to quit. 

Home Management class is next. Oh, dear, we were supposed to write a five page theme 

on choosing a good husband ! You can’t possibly think of more than three pages ! 

Algebra class is just around the corner. If Mr. Streeter gives another test you’ll just go crazy 

because you simply can’t understand those problems. You haven’t read your English, and besides 

you have only five sheets of scratch paper and two erasers. 

If you’re still alive after Algebra class, it’s time for English. Miss Smith calls off numbers 

and requests that you please write a summary on the story that you get. Wonder of wonders, you 

get the story that you have read, and do you think you are lucky! 

The classes are over for the morning, but it is assembly time. Mr. Mlinar might check so 

you had better not skip. You hope there are movies so you can catch up on some sleep. You have 

to be careful this time though, because you snored too loudly last time. 

When dinner is over, your stomach still sticks to your ribs, but life must go on. So you practice 

piano very industriously until the bell rings and then dash madly to typing class. You then 

realize you’re out of paper and your girl friend hasn’t any either because it’s your turn to buy it. 

You are desperate for the moment until that boy that sits next to you comes to your rescue and 

saves the day. It’s time for a speed test, your fingers quiver, you’re scared to death; but you actually 

live through those fifteen minutes. 

When typing class is over, you’re ready to give up in desperation, but there is still swimming 

or gym to attend. As you leave the swimming class you leave your beauty there also-your curls 

are gone, your hair is dry and brittle. If it’s gym you’re leaving, you are O. k. except for a couple 

of floor burns, a dislocated finger, and a twisted ankle. 

The day is over except for supper, band practice, and Aggie Board. The band instructor is 

cross, your horn won’t even squeak, and you have lost your book. At Aggie Board meeting someone 

has lost the calendar so the evening is spent searching waste baskets. 

As you return to Robertson, your day’s work is almost ended. All that you have left is 

twenty Algebra problems to work, two stories to read for English, a couple of themes to compose, 

and a letter to write home in answer to the one you received last week scolding you for not 

writing more often. 

A busy day No, just the ordinary school day routine of an average Aggie girl. 


76

Between the memorable hours of 7 :45 and 8:15 of a weekday morning great confusion reigns 

on the campus. The dining hall has disgorged its occupants who are feverishly eager to reach 

their respective classrooms bef ore the bell rings. Through the gates have passed several motor 

vehicles, by which means the A. C. gains its transient population. Out of this group of scholarly 

travelers we shall single out one and follow him through his daily routine. For convenience let’s 

call him Jake. 

After Jake has disposed of his overcoat, cap, and galoshes he enters room 104 with a feeling 

of grim resignation, for this is Saturday and he has three classes in a row in that room. Ologies on 

three different subjects in the short course of two and one half hours leaves Jake rather confused. 

As he mounts the stairs he becomes very nervous for today is speech day. Trying hard to remember 

his speech a thought something like this runs through Jake’s brain, “Will this meeting of 

spavined microbes please come to order, for all the world’s a stage, and there are seven microns 

of blind staggers seeking the bubble reputation while the secretary reads the minutes.” 

Having survived the ordeal in room 203, Jake makes a beeline for the stairway but finds the 

way blocked. Blocking his passage are : tall, short, fat, lean, happy, and sad students black-haired, 

brown-haired, red-haired, yellow-haired, and white-haired students black-eyed, brown-eyed, blueeyed, 

yellow-eyed, hazel-eyed, green-eyed, and gray-eyed students ; in fact, various editions of the 

future Mr. or Mrs. John K. Public. 

The time between 11 :30 and 1 :15 is marked by extremes, about one hour of it being occupied 

by peaceful slumber in a comfortable seat in the auditorium. But the remainder of the time, 

alas, is sorely trying to Jake. As he lifts a spoonful of beans to his lips a sound reaches his ears 

that gives him the jitters. The sound which comes from above is vaguely reminiscent of a dime 

novel long horn stampede. Having safely conducted the beans to their destination Jake becomes 

aware of a storm gathering in the north as a voice rings out, “Bring your bottles and glasses back 

to the counter.” The combination of the two nerve frayers is almost too much for him, and it is 

with relief that Jake gulps down his last bite and heads for the wide open spaces. 

In the large room on the west side of the second floor in Hill Building Jake loses himself in 

the crowd who are gathered there to listen to a peaceful looking man in a gray suit who talks in a 

pleasing voice of taxes and mortgages. 

As 2:05 rolls around Jake has gathered his scattered wits about him, and thus prepared, he 

starts for the southeast corner of third floor. As he seats himself Jake hears someone saying, 

“Close your books and notebooks ! Now I don’t like to talk like this to you people but it’s for your 

own good. Remember the below grade list goes in Monday and if you get on you stay there for 

two whole weeks.” Time passes. 

After 2:55 Jake is as free as the “fugitive from the chain gang”, that is, he is out on parole 

and may do as he wishes for a short time. However, time and tide wait for no man, and soon the 

afternoon and evening are gone forever and old papa Morpheus takes possession of the weary 

Jake. And so ends a day in the life of an Aggie student.

March ! What glorious events come in this month, and among them 

the annual Junior-Senior Banquet. The Prom of 1938 differed in theme 

from any other that has ever been presented. The entire scheme represented 

an old-fashioned garden. 

The doors were opened, revealing a brilliantly lighted dining room. 

The room was attractively decorated with green and white streamers. 

The guests marched into the dining room to the music of the school orchestra. 

The tables were arranged in a large circle. A miniature flower garden 

was placed on the center table. A bounteous meal was served by waiters 

and waitresses dressed as Overall Jims and Sunbonnet Sues. 

The theme of the program centered around the family album. The pages were turned revealing 

pictures of people in Grandmother’s day. As each page was turned, a character, dressed as a typical 

person of that day, stepped onto a stage in front of a large screen, while a group backstage sang songs 

suitable for the particular picture. 

As we entered the gymnasium, we beheld flowers and streamers in a variety of realistic colors and 

hues which were suspended from the ceiling. A sky-like appearance was achieved in the ceiling decorations 

by the use of shaded hues of blue, the colors ranging from brilliant blue to shades less dense in 

hue. 

The entire wall around the hall was decorated with a rock wall of white on a brown background. 

These sketches were so arranged as to give the effect of an old fashioned garden. 

We were impressed by the beauty of our surroundings as we marched around the garden. As we 

left this old-fashioned garden we retained vivid memories of days gone by.

Your Best Market for LIVESTOCK 

Is At GRAND FORKS 

The low supply of hogs and cattle brings the law of Supply and Demand 

actively into the picture. More and more farmers from this territory are learning 

that Grand Forks is now their best cash daily market for hogs and cattle. 

Also, Grand Forks gives you the shortest haul, over good highways, resulting 

in less shrinkage- 

Consequently, a greater yield for the grower. 

Bring in at least one load-either hogs or cattle-and get acquainted with 

the Northern Packing Company. We are a friendly place, and we'd enjoy meeting 

you. A better market. Shorter haul. Less shrinkage. No commission. Spot 

cash.
