ANNUAL REPORT OF PRESIDENT CARL M. WEIDEMAN To the FORTY-FIRST CONVENTION of the AMERICAN TURNERS at Indianapolis, Indiana:
As we are about to convene in the city of Indianapolis, Indiana, I wish to express our appreciation to the Athenaeum Turners of Indian- apolis for the excellent program which they have undertaken and for their extension of the wonderful spirit of Turner hospitality that this society always shows.
In this, our first post-war Convention, your National Executive Committee comes here with a great feeling of enthusiasm and hope that the immediate future will witness a growth in both our numbers and the character of our society facilities. Esnecially noteworthy has been the interest shown by our returned youth. In many societies. where they have participated in the operation and direction of the Turn Vereins, renewed enthusiasm and a growth in membership has been shown.
In the past year I have visited all the Turn V ereins on the Pacific Coast (with the exception of Seattle). Kansas City, many societies in the mid-west and spent a week in the New England District. We have had our annual round table conference at National Headquarters during the oast winter at which every region was represented. This round table conference was held in conjunction with the National Technical Com- mittee for the first time. Your President has attended many conferences and meetin~s in various cities in our national federation. I have come to this conclusion concerning the future status of the Turner Movement in America and the hope for its future.
( 1) In those cities where the older Turners refuse to allow or en- courage youth to participate in the operation of the society, there is a gradual weakening and dying out of those Turner societies. If these so-called elders could only attend our National Convention, they would get a different picture of the Turner Movement. They seem to be so firmly intrenched in their local societies that they are re-elected to con- trol year after year. I call upon our returned youth to become active in their respective societies, and to get more younger members into the societies. I call upon them to strive to get elected to local office to in- stitute some of the changes which the National Committee recommends and which we believe will mean the salvation of many societies and the preservation of their property and the carrying on of Turnerism in a manner to make Turners proud to belong to our organization.
(2) I have found that those societies whose governing boards refuse to raise the annual society dues are among the declining societies in our organization. The societies that charge their members a reasonable amount per annum for dues are :flourishing. Those that insist on charg- ing only three dollars are living in Turn Halls that generally are not being conducted as a Turner society should be. They have no full-time instructor, no educational program and no social or youth program. In those societies which charge their members a reasonable amount for their·
dues, sufficient income is gained so that a full-time physical director can be employed. The highest society dues per year are those at Detroit which is thitry-six dollars per year including tax. Included in the upper bracket are the societies at Cleveland, Indianapolis, Rochester, St. Louis
- 6 -
and some other societies. An examination of buildings owned by these societies and of the facilities, courses and program offered for its mem- bers is so far in advance of our societies paying smaller dues that there is no comparison. I recommend that these societies that are paying only three dollars per year dues per member raise their dues ~mm~diately to ten dollars and use the difference to employ a full-time mstructor.
Many societies claim that they cannot afford
t?
pay a;i instructor. Here is a method to test your loyalty to Turnensm: raise your. dues and allocate the additional dues collected for the payment of an mstructor.The Turner Movement is definitely on the up-grade. We have maintained our membership during this war and I am confident that in the next five years we will have a considerable increase in our numbers.
ACCOMPLISHMENTS OF THE PAST YEAR:
During the past year your National Executive Committee has ac- complished these things.
( 1) The establishment of a Leaders' Course of the American Turners. This course was held at Cleveland .from July 1-13 under the direction of Professors Carl Hein and Therese Pletz. Your President was present at the graduation exercises and spent a full day watching the operation of the school. I have never witnessed such capable teach- ing and more willing students during my entire experience in the Turner Movement. The youth, whom the various societies sent to study in this Leaders' Course, were among the most enthusiastic, cleanest and intelligent group of young people that I have ever seen. .
(2) We are presenting to this Convention a' recommendation <?f a pension or retirement plan for the Turner employees of. every society in which participation is optional. We believe that this plan ?lls a long felt need to provide retirement funds for our trusted and faithful employees.
(3) We are presenting to this Convention, for the. first time, the series of picture slides depicting the history, purposes, aims and mean- ing of the Turner organization. This lecture .was prepa.red under t~e direction of Turner Waldemar Eickhoff, National Chairman of this special project. He has made a wonderful contri~:mtion to Turnerism.
The use of this projector-slide history of Turnensm should allow any Turner to make an intelligent speech on Turnerism to be used for the education of our new members and for the securing of new members.
We urge each district or society to purchase this course of lecture slides.
( 4) We have had a round table meeting. for the first. time of o_ur regional members and our members of the National Technical Commit- tee. This round table discussion has kept in contact with our local societies and has helped in the intelligent administration and forming our program.
(5) Your national bowling tournament was re-established. This will be one of our annual events in the future. The South Bend Society is to be complimented for its excellent supervision. Our National Cham- pions of bowling are the South Side Turners of St. Louis. Who will win next year?
( 6) Your National Committee has continued its scholarships to the Normal College of the A. G. U. of Indiana University. This has been a worthwhile project and an inducement to some of our younger Turners to get into the physical education field.
(7) Your National Executive Committee has appointed Mr~.
Therese Pletz, one of the ablest teachers of physical education for women, as special consultant to the National Technical Committee-.
This is the first time that a woman has been a member of this com- mittee. We wonder why we have overlooked this for so long. The
~ork which Mrs. Pletz did in the preparation for the course of instruc- tion for the Leaders' Course has been tremendous. Her direction of physical education for women is progressive and very far in advance of the field. We are proud that she is one of our Turner teachers.
PROPOSALS FOR THE COMING YEAR:
(I)
(2) (3)
(4) (5) (6)
(7)
(8)
(9)
Should a committee be appointed to make a study as to whether or not our present method of organization should be changed?
(a ) Should we be incorporated?
(b) Should the American Turners enlarge its authority so that it be able to own, operate and manage real estate?
( c) Should the National Body advise a greater control and supervision ·over the local organization?
Should a uniform system of accounting be recommended for the use of the various societies?
Should this Convention request the Jahn Fund to establish and give I?ri~es for the best plans submitted for a model building or buildmgs to house Turn V ereins of various sizes?
Should a minimum payment of dues be recommended to vari- ous local societies?
Should an attempt be made to standardize and establish a more uniform set of constitutions and by-laws for the local societies?
Member societies should be urged to function more fully as Turner institutions.
(a) All societies should operate their gymnasiums immedi- ately.
(b) Cultural and educational activities must be renewed at once.
( c) Planned social programs for all the family must be insti- tuted at once.
Active voting membership should be made available for the unm~rrie~ women over twenty-one years of age. There is nothmg m our statutes to prohibit this. We should encourage more women to become members as part of our community
prog~an;; so a~ to give young women a decent place for their associations with other people.
We must prepare now for our 1948 National Tournament which will be the celebration of our hundredth birthday.
Should registration tickets be made available for sale as soon as possible to our members throughout the United States?
Th~ money so obtained from the sale of registrations for our National Tournament should be impounded in a trust fund.
Such monies will make possible the planning and payment of our expense of our one hundredth Anniversary Celebration.
Our annual gymnastics, volley ball and bowling tournaments should be continued.
- 8 -
(a) A series of district meets should be held in volley ball and gymnastics and the winners in district competition shall compete for our national championships at a place to be
arranged. ·
(b) A national bowling committee will be appointed who will have charge of the next tournament. The place and date of the tournament shall be in the hands of the societies no later than November 1.
( 10) Where conditions are possible for the building of a new Turn hall (a) should the National Executive Committee be enabled to loan such sums as may seem fit to it to advance for such a program or (b) shall the Jahn Fund be asked to help in a building program or (c) should contributions be asked for a National Building Fund?
( 11) Should the American Turners acquire a piece of lake property to be owned entirely by the National Body for the establish- ment of its Leaders' Course; and should the property be made available for the erection of over-night cottages for such Turners as may visit with the title of this property remaining in the hands of the society; and to provide that no building be erected until funds are available?
I believe that every Turn Hall, in the future, in addition to provid- ing for the usual gymnasium and volley ball facilities, should provide for bowling alleys as they attract a good class of participants and some physical and recreational outlet for persons who no longer desire to actively participate in the gymnasium. In addition to this, a bowling alley is a constant source of revenue to supplement the other revenues of the societies.
Your National Executive Committee has derived much satisfaction from the fact that our returned veterans are interested more than ever in the principles of Turnerism and are actively engaging in the building up of the various societies. While final figures have not been available, your Committee feels safe in saying that less than five per cent of the Turners were rejected for service in the armed forces as against a national average among the rest of the citizens of a rejection of forty-two per cent.
But this does not tell the whole story of the benefits that Turnerism has given to our youth. Of those in service, fully seventy-five per cent were commissioned or non-commissioned officers. This proves that we do teach leadership and that our Turner boys and girls have benefitted directly from the Turner teaching.
In October, 1937, when the Lake Erie District was given the custody of the National Executive Committee, we had a few hundred dollars in cash and liabilities of approximately twenty thousand dollars. Today, after having paid for the cost of our Leaders' Course, there remains cash on hand in the amount of approximately thirty thousand dollars. In view of the fact that five of these years have been war years, we are proud to report the healthy condition of our national treasury.
In 1937, our membership amounted to 20,845 members. At that time there was no definite way of acurately determining whether this figure was incorrect or not. We have since discovered that many societies turned in a statement of a greater number of members than there were
- 9 -
for reasons known only to themselves. In the past year we have had 23,965 members on our rolls including veterans and 50 year members.
Our present method of issuing a national membership card and collecting the national per capita tax allows for no discrepancies. If you are the possessor of a national membership card, you are a member of good standing. If you do not have the membership card, you are not a member of the American Turners nor are you counted in determining the number of our members. We feel confident that in the next few years our membership will show a handsome gain.
TURNER TOPICS:
It is regrettable that more of our members do not see fit to pay fifty cents per year for our national publication American Turner Topics.
You would become better versed in our aims and principles if you became a subscriber. I wish each of you would personally secure ad- ditional subscriptions to Turner Topics.
I want to thank each and every member of the National Executive Committee, our regional members and all district and local officers for their splendid cooperation during the trying years just past. I want to thank our individual Turners for standing by and helping. Also, I appreciate the valuable and conscientious work done by our office secre- tary, Miss Elizabeth U nti. Our great opportunity to spread Turnerism in America is at hand now. Today is the time to build.
With Turner Greetings,
CARL M. WEIDEMAN, National President
