EASTERN MONTAKA COLLEGE OF EDUCATION
Billings, IRmtana
Vol. 1 No. 3 February 18, 1349
CALEY.DAR OF colarG EVENTS icrA.:-E FOR EASTERN OFFICIAL
"Easterners" are no longer Normal--
at least, not in name. The change of
name was made official when Governor
Bonner signed the bill changing the
name of ti3school to EASTERN YONT/JA
COLLEGE OF EDUCATION.
The bill soonsored by Fred Kreig and
Dr. Myron Tripp of Yellowstone County
and by Beaverhead County legislata•
climaxes a three-year campaign con-ducted
by Dr. Peterson, President.
THE CLOTHING DRIVE AND WHY!
Due to the severe weather we have
endured the past couple of months,
many children of our community have
been unable to attend school because
they do not have sufficient clothing
to keep them warm. It is really a
shame that many children, right under
our very noses, are being deprived
of necessary schoolinr, because they
are not properly clothed.
The probl= is so immense that the
Family Telfare or,7anization and the
Salvation Army are unable to remedy
the problem alone. It is because of
this that the drives arc also being
carried on throughout the various
schools of Billings.
Your donations will surely help
some boy or girl to continue their
proper schooling without interrup-tion.
The receptacle for the clothing, as
you may have or should have noticed,
is located on the first floor, just
a few steps from the telephone booth.
The nice little piece of art work
displayed on the blackboard is a con-tribution
of :talcs Betty iiunowney.
In 1946 when LASTERIC '1AS CHANGED to
a four-year college with a Bachelor
of Science in Education and a two-year
Junior College, Dr. Peterson's
attempt to change to EASTERN, drop-ng
NORUAL al toga the r , met with the
immediate approval of faculty and
students.
