INDIANA UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF PHYSICAL EDUCATION ALUMNI ASSOCIATION 1300 W. MICHIGAN. INDIANAPOLIS. INOIANA 46202

VOL. 60 N0.1 (FORMERLY NORMAL) SPRING ^I 1977

Lohse Recognition Banquet April 22, 1977

"What am I looking forward to? For one

thing, not having to answer the tele- phone."

Dean Lola Lohse also can expect other

"not having to's" . . . long committee

meetings, solutions to students' problems, getting and rationing annual bud- gets, and other deanly chores required of the leader of the School of Physical Educa- tion.

Dean Lohse has chosen early retirement from Indiana University. On July 1, she will achieve the rank of former Dean and Professor.

Lola and husband Henry (who.also plans to retire as Director of Community Rela- tions for the Warren Township Schools) are having a house built at Port Charlotte, Florida. Their new home will be next door to that of Professor· Emeritus Rudolph (Rudy) Schreiber.

Dean Lohse will be honored at a Friday, April 22, recognition dinner-dance at the Indianapolis Athletic Club. All alumni, friends, students, and University colleagues are invited.

The School of Physical Education Alum- ni Association will be hosting the 6:30 P.M. Cash Bar and 7:30 P.M. Banquet. Tickets are $10.00 per person and reservations will be required. Additionally, the Association

is soliciting donations for a gift to be given to Lola in appreciation of her service to our school. Please use the enclosed envelope to make your ticket orders and gift contributions.

At the April 22nd program, Lola will be presented with a bound folder of letters from her friends and colleagues. You are invited to contribute to this collection.

Send your "Dean Lola" letters to Professor Sue Barrett at the School of Physical Education, 1010 West 64th Street, In- dianapolis, Indiana 46260.

And, to perpetuate the memory of Dean Lohse's tenure, the School of Physical Education Alumni Association has com- missioned Ed Brucker to paint Lola's portrait. This will be presented to the University during the evening's activity.

For readers of th is Bulletin, Dean Lohse's services to the Normal College-School of Physical Education are more in the nature of reminders than news. She began teaching part-time at the NCAGU in 1943, when she also was the entire physical education faculty at Marian College. She has headed the School, as Director and then as the first Dean, since 1963.

She has been active as an officer for national, regional, and state HPER Associ-

ations. A full list of her community services, professional publications, and other ad1ievements would require a special edi- tion of the Bulletin.

Among her many contributions have been innumerable committee meetings concerned with the development of IUPUI.

Dr. John C. Buhner, Vice Chancellor and Dean of the Faculties, is chairman of the planning committee for the April 22 recognition dinner. Dr. Buhner has worked with Dean Lohse on numerous IUPUI com- mittees, including a group that developed a report on goals and objectives for the campus.

"Lola is a great asker of the best ques- tions," Dr. Buhner said. "When we talked about goals, she kept bringing us back to the basics. How will this help us serve the students better? What do those high- sound ing words really mean? As a teacher and administrator, and above all as a person, she has earned our lasting admiration and affection."

Dr. Buhner indicates that the April 22 program will be less formal than most occasions of this kind.

"We'll do our best to fit what happens to the person we're recognizing," he said.

So there may be a few surprises.

METROS

ON THE MOVE

The IUPUI Metros have helped to create a campus espirit d'corps with which students are beginning to identify. This is of particular importance on an urban campus where the vast majority of the students both commute and work their way through school.

Growth, improvement, and change has marked each of the four previous Metros' seasons. The 1976-77 Metro season is following tradition. The big change this year is where the home contests are played. The Metros have moved to the Indiana State Fair Grounds Coliseum. Their new home court replaces the Naval Armory, scene of last year's home games.

The schedule is improved and filled with tough new opponents. The 27-game season began November 27th. 21 games into the season, the team, under Coach Kirby Overman, has compiled a 9-12 record. At home the Metros played both the Univer- sity of Wisconsin at Green Bay (recruiting ground for many pro teams) and the University of Wisconsin at Parkside.

With the return of four seasoned veterans and the addition of a fine group of new, but in-experienced players, the team has played a consistently good brand of ball. For seniors Bob Woodford and Keith Nye it is their last year. Dave Harr s and Dale Taylor, both sophomores, also have returned.

Austris Purvlicus rejoined the team. New to Metros fans is Julius Norman, a 6'1%'' junior college transfer from Samford whose college point average per game is 19.9.

Bill Finley, a 5'11 W' comes from Ten- nessee Tech. It was Finley who broke Oscar Robertson's state finals record by scoring 36 points in the afternoon game.

Mike Harris comes to IUPUI as a senior by way of Wichita State University. Th.e 6'9" Harris is a Junior College All Ameri- can. Austin Whyte a transfer from IU Koko- mo also joined the team.

Alumni Homecoming-Senior Picnic April 23, '77

The traditions of the Normal College are strong ones, and have always strengthened the bonds of friendship between students and the loyal ties they have with the School of Physical Education.

The Alumni-Senior Picnic, April 23rd, will afford alumni an excellent opportunity to return "home" and renew acquaintances while reliving, for a short time, the good ol' days.

And it's timed so that you all can attend Lola's Retirement Party the evening before.

The School of Physical Education's Senior Class will be guests of the Alumni Associ- ation for the day's activities. It will be a perfect time to offer congratulations to the seniors upon their upcoming graduation, and to personally serve as an inspiration for these young folks just embarking on their careers.

The picnic and athletic competition will be held on School grounds, 1010 West 64th Street, Indianapolis, Indiana. The day's schedule follows.

10:00 A.M ... REGISTRATION - Alumni President Fritz Rohdes will put forth the day's Challenge to Seniors.

11:00 A.M . .. ANNUAL MEETING - The alumni membership will convene to elect a new Board of Directors, approve a proposed constitutional amendment, and transact any new business brought to the floor.

11:45 A.M ... PICNIC LUNCHEON

1:00 P.M ... ATHLETIC COMPETITION - Alumni and students will contest each other in tennis, ping-pong, basketball, softball, and the Alumni-Senior Challenge Volleyball Match.

SPECIAL PRESENTATIONS - The travelling Alumni-Senior Challenge trophy will be awarded the victors (last year won by the Alumni), and special recognition and presentations will be given each Senior.

Reservations may be made by returning the enclosed envelope before April 18, 1977.

Cost per adult is $3.50 and per child is $1.75. The Picnic will be held rain or shine. Should foul weather beset, activities will move indoors.

Plan now to attend the Picnic. Show this year's graduates what a strong Alumni Association the School has . . . and how proud you are to be an active member.

CONSTITUTIONAL REVISION

The following revision to the School of Physical Education Alumni Association's Constitution will be presented for approval during the Annual Meeting, April 23rd.

Article IV Sec. 1 (0) of the Constitution presently reads "the two Directors-at- Large, who will be elected to serve a two year term on the Board of Directors, one to be elected each year after the initial insti- tution of these officers."

The proposed Constitutional revision reads "six Directors-at-large, who will be elected to serve a three year term on the Board of Directors, two to be elected each year after the initial institution of these offi- cers."

It should be noted, that if approved, numerical references to the Board made throughout the constitution would be changed in accordance with the above

ALUMNI UPDATE

Dear Alurr.ni and Friends,

Like Hemingway's Moveable Feast our Homecomings seem to be on a sliding calendar to take advantage of events at the School of Physical Education campus. In 1976, it was the Pioneer Day celebration, which added a wealth of interesting and unusual activities. Hope you were among those who enjoyed that Bicentennial event.

Homecoming '77 is planned to coincide with Lola Lohses' retirement dinner. We feel many alums will make the trip back to the campus for this event on Friday, April 22 (along with I .U. staff and students). Because Lola spent the long years of service that other retired leaders gave to Normal , we feel a great deal of recognition should be given for her leadership through a period of massive and almost constant change. She has insisted tenaciously on the maintenance of a School of P.E. that will maintain the stan- dards and the philosophy of Normal Col- lege.

The dinner-dance o'n Friday will be fol- lowed by the annual Homecoming meeting and biennial election of officers on Satur- day morning. At noon the Alumni will host a picnic for graduating seniors with many of the traditional Homecoming activities after lunch.

A second matter of concern to the Executive Board is the decline of a few members per year in our Association. The number is small, but the trend is in the wrong direction. We are wondering if the situation may be akin to the old classroom joke of "If you are not here, answer ab-

sent;" if perhaps your alumni mailings are

not reaching you because of changes of address. Therefore, this Bulletin is a "return to sender" mailing, on the basis of

which we will start a Lost Alums column to help update the address roster. Anything you readers can do to help will be appreci-

ated. Especially call your friends and class-

mates to urge they attend Homecoming.

Some of them may be "lost mailings" right now.

Over the years, one noticeable d if- ference between Normal and other alum groups has been our togetherness. Here are two opportunities to exhibit those co- hesive traits - the retirement dinner and the Homecoming following it. Do not miss this chance to let l.U. (and l.U.P.U.I.) see how strong the bonds of our Alumni Association are. Mark your calendar now and start planning for April 22 & 23.

Sincerely,

Billie (Boettjer) Stewart President-Elect

IUPUI Women's Basketball

At the mid-point of their season, the IUPUI Women's Basketball team has compiled a winning record of 4-3.

The thirteen member squad represents eleven different school districts in the In- dianapolis metropolitan area. Two members played their high school basketball in Michigan and New Jersey.

The squad is young and talented with four freshmen seeing a lot of action. Five more team members are sophomores.

These young ladies have set their mark in the classroom, too. The fall semester saw them combining for a 2.80 GPA. This scholastic and athletic combination shou Id prove beneficial in the long run. Ten of the

team members are students at the School of Physical Education.

Joining Jeff Vessely on the coaching staff are two student assistants, Peggy

O'Connor and Tim Brown. Both are stu-

dents in the School of Physical Education. The thirteen game schedule included a February 15th date at the Fairgrounds Coli- seum with Marian College. The Marian College coach is 1976 School of Physical Education graduate, Clara Caito.

HENRY MONTOYE HONORED

Henry Montoye, Class of '42,· had been approved by the Board of Governors of the AAHPER as the first Alliance Scholar.

In accepting this honor, Montoye is com- mitted to make two "public" presentations and to present the Alliance Lecture at the AAHPER national convention. The March Lecture will take place in Seattle, and the subject will be "Physical Activity and Health: Adventures in Research."

The appointment includes a stipend of

$1,000 to partially cover transportation and

other costs for both the public and Alli- ance presentations.

A native of Chicago, he attended the Normal College from 1939 to 1942 and received his degree from Indiana University in 1943. After serving three years in the United States Navy he entered the Univer- sity of Illinois where he earned the M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in 1947 and 1949 re- spectively.

He served on the faculty of Michigan State University from 1949 to 1961. He left there and went to the University of Michi- gan with a dual appointment as professor of physical education and research

PAGE 5

associate in epidemiology in the School of Public Health.

Upon leaving Michigan in 1971 to take up his present position with the University of Tennessee, he continued his Michigan association by retaining his position of non-resident lecturer in epidemiology in the School of Public Health.

Montoye is a member of numerous professional organizations. He has been an active member of the Research Council of the AAHPER. Having served two terms on the study section of applied physiology, National Institute of Health, he was the first physical educator to be appointed. He is currently national president of Phi Epsilon Kappa, a professional fraternity in health, physical education and recreation.

Much of Montoye's research· has been reported in professional journals in th is country and abroad. He has presented many papers at scientific meetings, authored, co-authored or edited many books, and reviewed many books for professional periodicals.

We are proud of the recognition accorded Henry Montoye by being named the first Alliance Scholar of the AAHPER.

NEW ALUMNI

MARK and GLENN IE JUSTICE had twin girls, ANGELA SUE and ALLISAN MARIE, on February 10, 1977.

MIKE and NANCY (SCHREIBER) HAGIST, had a daughter, NORA, on Feb- ruary 4, 1977.

PIONEER DAY 1976

The School of Physical Education celebrated the American Bicentennial by recognizing the heritage and traditions of our country's founding fathers. Pioneer Day 1976 was a festive homecoming for alumni who returned to campus and participated in canoe races, candle making, and musket shooting. And, it was a busy time for Physical Education faculty and students who spent months preparing costumes and displays for this all campus event.

Both lunch and dinner and the annual meeting of the School of Physical Education's alumni membership, were included in the day's activities.

In perpetuating an alumni tradition Rudy Memel and Norm Shulte conducted a camp fire that included a sing- a-long and a "roast" of Dean Lola Lohse.

And for several hours following, alumni and students do-si-doed their partners as if the day had just begun. The old-time square dance was a perfect ending to the 1976 Pioneer Day-Alumni Homecoming.

Shelley Richardson (left front) and Kris Llenert (right front) along with Helen Straub (rear) show off their traditional pioneer garb.

Or. Paul Watson defends his class from an Indian attack. Mandy Barrett and Jennifer Campbell watch with mixed feelings. During the day's activities the art of musket shooting was demonstrated.

In one of the canoe race heats, Patty Sullivan and Ivy Menken (rear canoe) challenged Brad Lennon, Steve Ritter, and Pam Berry.

A demonstration of stamper dolls was on the Pioneer Day Agenda. Performing were from left to right Patty Sullivan, Kim Moffett, and Missy Young.

l.U.P.U.I. WOMEN'S VOLLEYBALL

We enjoyed our second year of competition. After finishing fourth in the Indiana Women's Intercollegiate Sports Organiza- tion State Volleyball Tournament last year, th is year's team made another top-notch showing at the state meet.

The women's team finished its season with a record of twelve match wins against nine defeats. The total team effort was led by co-captain Shirley Blue, a sophomore new to the unit this year. This young lady is quite an athlete - from drilling spikes and serves to the floor, untouched by the oppo- nent, to pulling a classmate from the mid- dle of "Lienert's Lake."

Doing a super job all year were freshmen Kathy Gaddie, one of our straight-A students, and Bev Stout, from the School of Business. Also, "Miss Hustle" Lynn Aurelius and true competitor Ivy Menken contributed. Seniors Elaine Elliott and Peggy O'Connor added to the team's depth. Another player counted on was sophomore Patty Sullivan.

Due to a recurr:ent back injury, senior and co-captain Glenda Bolton saw limited playing time. Our team nucleus will re- main, still we will be losing other seniors, Susie Patterson and Anna Hopkins. Three other women rounded out our· comple- ment of fourteen players, including Char- letta Reynolds, Patty Topper and Cindy Kestler.

One of last year's outstanding team members, Clara Caito, 1976 Faculty Award Winner, has gone on to become the volleyball and basketball coach at Marian Col- lege. We're all quite proud of her.

"Mary and I had a ball at the Normal Col- lege get-together. I'm still keeping busy with a I ittle teaching and business. The snow has been bad so far this winter - paralyzes the entire area. Worst winter as far as snow fall is concerned since 1909."

with the spectacle. Had tickets for the gymnastics, volleyball, playform diving and track and field. But, the high light of all was the glamorous display and colorful panorama of the closing ceremony. They sat next to Bob Richards (Olympic pole vault gold medalist in the 50's) who stated,

"Of the nine Olympics which I've been fortunate enough to attend, this closing ceremony is the most impressive I have ever seen."

PAUL L. PAULSEN who attended Nor- mal from 1929 to 1931 is enjoying the luxury of retirement. Although Glendale, California, still is considered his legal residence, he is home only when necessary to check on the family, visit the doctor and dentist, and clean up the yard. Then it's off to the mountains, or Idaho, or Oregon or Arizona or wherever.

RUDY and MARG SCHREIBER spent the summer at their Michigan cottage and then toured the East. In November they were off to Costa Rica and are looking forward to a visit to Indianapolis to welcome daughter Nancy's first born.

Others who sent greetings: CONNIE (APOSTAL) ZIMLICH, LOU ROTH, THEL- MA (SIMMONS) CLARKE, MARGE (HOGLE) McCLEISH, VIRGINIA ISRAEL, MABEL LOEHR, JO HATFIELD, BETTY LOU (ROTH) and LARRY OLLIGES, VIOLA (WINTERHOFF) WIRTH, EL- FRIEDA (WANDREY) AMWAKE, and BETTY and HENRY MONTOYE.
