Scope and Contents

From the Collection:

Clippings and photographs, primarily of the First District Normal School's football and baseball teams, collected by Jim Rouse during his years as a student and member of the faculty. Rouse was an "All-Missouri" star athlete who joined the faculty as Associate Professor of Agriculture after graduation.The Book of Jim Rouse includes a biography; a memorial sketch; and items concerning his career at Kirksville which were saved by him and furnished by his wife, Myrtie Van Deusen Rouse. The book was compiled for the University Archives by P.O. Selby in 1963. Rouse was one of the Normal School's star athletes, so most of the items in the album, primarily newspaper clippings and photos, are about the school's football and baseball teams.
