The work of the classroom and the activities outside the classroom are planned to promote the growth of individual students. The spirit of give and take and of coopera-tion between students and faculty are necessary factors in a liberalizing edu-cation. The program of the school is based upon the belief that it is the spirit that giveth life. It is a working principle with us that children in the schools are entitled to teachers with forceful, free and growing personalities. This school, situated in the midst of challenging mountains and the beckon-ing sea, constantly stirs up new aspira-tions. May the memories of days spent here ever be a source of inspiration PRESIDENT C. H. FISHER for further growth in service and living. Three individuals hold the tides of fate in their hands when the student enters school. They control and advise concerning courses, classes, room and board, and all the essential features of the student's life. These are James Bever, Dean of the School; W. J. Marquis, Dean of Men, and Adele Jones, Dean of Women, the directors who are "seen" about so many of the school's activities. DEAN BEVER DEAN JONES DEAN MARQUIS Seventeen ----------- Klipsun, 1928 - Page 18 ---------- MILLER KIBBE KEELER KOLSTAD MARQUIS SALISBURY LEDTICAT IO Psychology and its application to living, studying, and teaching is sponsored by the Department of Education. The genetic point of view is taken and courses worked out which bear upon the problems of education. A broad outlook on the past of education and its significant bearing upon the present, as well as the contributions of modern sociology, science, and philosophy to the development of an intelligent point of view on present problems in the teaching field, are given in the History and Philosophy of Education. PHYSICAL EDUCATIOH Women must enroll in physical education each quarter. The courses offered and required are: physical education 1, folk dancing, plays and games, swimming, organization and administration of health education, and natural dancing. Men are required to take eight credit hours of physical education before graduation. Two hours may be made by playing on school teams. PETERS KELLER CARVER BOWEN MEAD Eighteen ----------- Klipsun, 1928 - Page 19 ---------- FOWLER EDENS SPERRY ULLIN MADDEN HOPPE LNGL ISH, ELXPRESSION The English Department attempts to stimulate intellectual curiosity, and to deepen and enrich appreciations of life values through a consideration of some of the great writers and thinkers of all times. It also tries to test and improve students' ability to write and speak their own vernacular. The principle of teaching students to read effectively and speak clearly and to develop self-expression is held by the Speech Department as its aim in a required speech course. It offers as well, debating, play production and psychology of speech. Regular college work in foreign languages is given, with special stress placed on the spoken idiom. LIIRAJR efTAFF, IDlHIAI S I Library Instruction is required of all freshmen. The aim of this course is to give students a method of attack in a library so that they may independently do research work when they go into practical teaching. All students whose hand writing does not come up to standard are required to take a course in penmanship. Before a diploma is granted, and before work in the training school is permitted, the requirement must be met, GRAGG RICE WILSON GEORGE TREAT EWELL Nineteen ----------- Klipsun, 1928 - Page 20 ---------- PHILIPPI SUNDQUIST ROSENE PLATT LONGLEY COUNTRYMAN CIEHCL, IIHOIEL LCOHOMICS A general science orientation course is required of all freshmen. This gives the student sufficient background to place man in his relation to nature. Special courses are offered for those interested in advanced work in the lines of science. The courses of the Home Economics Department are given mainly for those who intend to teach this subject in the grades. Foods, cookery, nutrition, household management, dressmaking and a course on Home Economics Education are offered. fOCIIAML TFI@IAS IENCL HICOYFGIh In the Department of Social Science are taught economics, geography, history, political science and world economy. Work is taken up, for the most part, in a manner that will be of aid to the future teacher. A course in hygiene is given for prospective teachers in that line. Each curriculum has its required course in mathematics. All work is taken up from a teacher-training point of view. WILLIAMS BEVER CUMMINS ARNTZEN HUNT JOHNSON BOND Twenty ----------- Klipsun, 1928 - Page 21 ---------- BREAKEY PLYMPTON SLAWSON SMITH MOORE FITNE iARTcS, HII[IIC Technical skill in the teaching of arts in grade school is the chief aim of the Art Department. A standard of appreciation and judgement of beauty and practical taste is set up by the department. In the Music Department such courses as the following are offered, largely with the teacher's aim in view: sight singing, appreciation, chorus, orchestra, music history, class conduction. INDUSTRIAL ARTS, TYPING In a special building and with special equipment, Industrial Arts is offered as a comprehensive course for those expecting to teach in that field from elementary to senior high school work. The fundamental principles of touch typing are taught to enable the student to become efficient enough to use a typewriter for his own purposes. RUCKMICK MANY RINDAL BISSELL LOVEGREN Twenty-one ----------- Klipsun, 1928 - Page 22 ---------- 'TRAINIHG SCHOOL Every prospective teacher must pass through the Training Schcol before he receives a diploma which qualifies him to teach. In this laboratory of education he has many contacts: through courses in Technique he beccmes familiar with actual class-room method and management; he observes expert teaching; class recitations; students at work and at play. Difficulties of special student types, of various pres-entation methods in all fields are con-stantly being worked out in the Training School. On the staff of the training school are: Mary E. Rich, Director; Augusta Pragst, Teacher of Technique in Primary Grades; Anna J. Beiswenger, Teacher of Technique in Intermediate Grades; Emma S. Erickson, Teacher of Technique in Upper Grades; Marjorie E. Dawson, Pri-mary Supervisor in City Schools; Anna J. Peterson, Supervisor of Intermediate Grades in City Schools; Fanny J.

Strickland, First Grade teacher; Mildred Moffatt, Second Grade teacher; Pearl Cosgrave, Third Grade teacher; Pearl Merriman, Fourth Grade teacher; Eleanor Osborn, Fifth Grade teacher; Mary Cole, Sixth Grade Teacher; Ruth VanPelt, Seventh Grade teacher; and Bertha Crawford, Eighth Grade teacher. Twenty-two ----------- Klipsun, 1928 - Page 23 ---------- 6THE OFFICE FORCE Without the administrative officers and their assistants the school could not function. The centralization of all busi-ness, finance, and registration, other than that purely executive, is in the Registrar's Office. Permanent records of former Nor-mal students, as well as other student in- formation, are available here. Margaret McKinnon, who is the Nor-mal school accountant, has full charge of all school finance; Mrs. Edith Banner is Miss McKinnon's accounting assistant, and Olive Gunderson is the Recorder. She keeps all permanent records of the grades, receives transfer grades from other col-leges, grades from high schools, and sends out the quarterly reports. Other offices of the school which handle a great deal of executive work are of the Dean of Women; of the Training School, and of the Library. Charlotte Brigham is the Secretary of Mary Rich, Director of the Training School. Kathleen O'Malley is the school nurse assistant. She lives at Edens Hall, conveniently placed for emergency illness calls from the organized houses. Bertha Weber is active in the Research Department; Polly Learnard is President Fisher's private sec-retary. Dean James Bever's secretary, Bertha Sundeen, checks students for graduation, scholarships, and absences. Elizabeth Hopper is the appointment secretary, It is through her hands that all teaching positions of Normal students are made. Gladys Parr is Secretary to Dean Jones, and Mary Hoyer is the switch board oper-ator in the Main Office. Mary Ringer is circulating librarian and Mrs. Irene Lieske is the Assistant Librarion. She does the secretarial work for the library and has charge of the periodical room. Left Column: McKinnon, Banner, Gunderson, Brigham, O'Malley, Weber.

S. N. S. Its policy is to carry accurate, timely reports of school happenings and of events of interest to Normal students. A change of management came at the end of the winter quarter when Robert Wagner, a graduate, was succeeded by Robert Fisher as editor, and Barney Chichester, business manager, who resigned, had his part filled by Harry Appleton. At the close of the Spring quarter a new name was chosen for the school paper, "The Northwestern Viking," suggested by Mary Hibner in a school-wide contest.

WHEN "THE WEEKLY MESS" WENT TO PRESS Seventy ----------- Klipsun, 1928 - Page 71 ---------- RED ARROW The Red Arrow, in the second year of its existence, has proved an interesting and worth- while venture. It is Bellingham Nor-mal's only literary magazine, edited quarterly by the Scribes' Club and outside contributors. In attempting to provide material of interest to varied types of students, it contains short stories, poems, satires, essays, humor, and editorials. Vernon Zachrison, editor for the winter quarter publication, says, "If the literary experiments found in the Red Arrow are taken seriously enough to merit criticism by readers, the staff will feel richly repaid for its efforts."

About the middle of the fall quarter, under the leadership of several first quarter freshmen, the debate club, "Gavel and Pul-pit" was formed. Its purpose was to encourage debate and public speaking in the school, also to sponsor the intra-mural debate tournament. Sufficient material turned out to make ty students answered both a men's and a the call of the fall women's team. In the quarter.

This cup is presented yearly to the winner of this speech contest, who has the honor of having his or her name engraved on the trophy, and becomes the guardian of the cup until the following year. The Extemporaneous Contests have greatly stimulated debate and public speech in the school, and have brought timely topics before the student body in a new and interesting way. Eighty- five ----------- Klipsun, 1928 - Page 86 ---------- LIECTImURET CODUJWIRSJIB One of the finest lecture courses ever offered by the school was opened by Dr. Frank Bohn of New York, economist, author, lecturer, journalist. "Our New Barbarism" was the title of his dis-course which threw much light on the press, the tabloid, jazz in our present-day- world. Yet as a silver lining to the dark clouds of twentieth century barbarism, Dr. Bohn maintained his faith in the ultimate triumph of the sanity of American people in art and morals. CAPTAIN JOHN NOEL Perils glamorous, hardships almost unbearable, joy unbounded, tragedy always immanent - such is mountain climbing-such was the ascent of Mount Everest, the highest pinnacle of land in the world. Captain John Noel, official photographer on the two fruitless expeditions to scale the mighty peak, came to the Normal on the eve-ning of November 14, with a message thrilling in its tales of heroism, sacri-fice and the glory of unknown lands. He spoke with graphic simplicity but with extraordinary vividness of Tibet with its mysterious people, its quaint customs, its social life, of scaling the mountain bit by bit, until, within sight of the summit, the two adventurers were lost. The moving pictures which illustrated the lecture were marvels of photographic beauty and splendor. DR. JAMES MURPHY Bringing a message new and unusual in its content, titled "The Destiny of Democracy", Dr. James Murphy, Ph. D. of Dublin, London and Paris, spoke on the evening of January 11. He startingly portrayed the Italian situ- Eighty-six ation, the attitude of the British press and foreign office, the reconstruction work of France,-the causes and results of the World War in general. He pointed to the realignment of the masses of Europe along economic rather than political lines. "Old world politics are gone and the traditional technique of government is fast becom-ing an anachronism", said Dr. Murphy. MAURICE HINDUS A Russian by birth, an American by adoption, and a journalist by occupa-tion, Maurice G. Hindus knows Russia as few men do, and can speak about it as no one else can. With the kindly eye of the native, and the skeptical eye of the journalist, to say nothing of the observant eye of the true American, he has taken the situation of present day Russia in the palm of his hand and felt the velvety soft spots of the texture as well as the pieces of grit. Russia, long considered the land of the reli-gious, was, according to Hindus, the land of the so-called religious. Religion there was a vocation or rather a duty, easily forgotten and never regretted. Consequently, when the Soviet abolished religion for the younger generation, and discouraged it among the elders, there was no nationwide rebellion or regret. There is no nationwide rebellion or regret as far as communism is concerned, Hindus maintained, though the country people object to the methods practiced in the cities where objections to private prop-erty confiscation cannot be heard. "The situation in Russia," the speaker con-cluded, "has hopes for the ultimate salvation of the country, so that it will again resume its place among the world powers." ----------- Klipsun, 1928 - Page 87 ---------- DR. WILL DURANT Dr. Will Durant, philosopher and writer, noted for his popularized phil-osophy in book form, and his mental autobiography, "Transition", address-ed a capacity audience on the evening of January 27, 1928, using as his topic, "Is Progress a Delusion?" He replied that it is not, using the idea that "Empires may rise, or empires may fall, but civilization goes on forever." He pointed to the present condition of humanity, citing the longer span of life expectancy, more and better con-veniences, labor devices, the spread of education. Dr. Durant has been likened to the late William James, or, "the ideal of the educated man. So lightly and gracefully does his knowleddge sit upon him that instead of crushing, it human-izes him, to our great joy and profit." FLOYD DELL Floyd Dell, the author of half a dozen modern and popular novels, as well as several essays on education and life in general, spoke on the evening of March 9, on "Were You Ever a Parent?" The lecture was full of wit, common sense and keen thought. Mr. Dell defended the youth of today, spoke in favor of early marriages, condemned the modern intellectual novel as giving an erroneous impression of sex and psychology, and applauded the progressive advance of woman-hood. PRIVATE PEAT Perhaps one of the most unusual and interesting lectures given at the Normal school for some time was delivered by a man who came to the school on short notice and spoke in a special assembly, the time being too short to allow for a public appearance. On Wednesday, April 18, Harold R. Peat, internation-ally known as "Private Peat," spoke on "The Inexcusable Lie," in which he denounced the glorification of war and graphically portrayed the lurid horrors of life in the trenches during the great world war. Undoubtedly Private Peat in his short talk captured the hearts of his audience more completely than any other speaker who appeared on the local platform during the year. A strange type of speaker, Peat proved himself a person whose person-ality is forcibly impressed upon his every listener. A sudden change of voice, of attitude, and of manner, trans- formed the lecturer from formidable, demori-like being to a laughing college boy, which his speech changed from that surcharged with emotion and pas-sion to that of light humor which placed his audience in the frame of mind to receive the next thought of the speaker. The inexcusable lie, according to Peat, is the glorified aspect of war which is taught by the histories of the public schools. War, according to the lecturer, should be pictured as it is, a horrible thing, which turns men into monsters, and destroys the flower of humanity. Himself a victim of the fury of war, Peat spoke with the vehemence of a man who has seen once and does not care to see again. Eighty-seven ----------- Klipsun, 1928 - Page 88 ---------- MUsIC Giving to the students of the Bellingham State Normal School one of the most musical and artistic programs in many years, the Musical Artists Course opened with Edward Johnson, tenor, of the Metropolitan Opera Company, on December first. Mr. Johnson, undoubtedly one of the most distinguished tenors of today, gave a program that took the hearts of his audience. He combined the artist and the actor, and held his audience spell bound with his interpretations. His ability as a singer and his personality gave the students of this school one of the events they will never forget. Then came Georges Enesco, the Roumanian violinist, on January 24th. Words cannot explain Georges Enesco. He is sublime. His swift bow takes one here and there, always leaving impressions, giving glimpses of dreamy lands, of blue skies, of tragedies, of sadness, for Enesco wraps himself into his music and incidently wraps his audience into himself. What stood out in this concert was the soft, smooth tones of the virtuoso, his delicate bowing and his quaint personality. The English Singers were presented on March 8th, in a program of madri-gals, folk songs, canzonets and ballads. The many lovers of part singing were amazed at the polyphonic effects achieved by this matchless ensemble. The freshness and vitality of their singing has set a standard that will live for long. Their perfection of colorful tones was combined with a final chord which carried marvelous harmony and seemed to come from an organ rather than from a group of human voices Harold Bauer is truly the master pianist. On the evening of March 27th, he proved this by his overwhelming conquest of technical difficulties, his clear poetic insight, and his extraordinary powers of interpretation. Harold Bauer puts his soul into the composition he is playing and makes the meaning of the creator very plain. This master's playing has such absolute perfection of inter-pretation that one forgets his surroundings and is enthralled by the artist. Florence Austral, soprano, gave a superb performance, Tuesday evening, April 17th. This artist has a dramatic soprano voice of power and beautiful quality. Her tones are of such purity that they seem to flow as smoothly as a mountain stream. The perfect balance and smoothness of her tone were perfectly placed and firmly established. Miss Austral also has great dramatic ability. She won an ovation from her audience. WOMEN'S GLEE CLUB Eighty-eight ----------- Klipsun, 1928 - Page 89 ---------- MEN'S GLEE CLUB The last number on the Musical Artist Course was the Barrere Little Symphony, which appeared on April 19th. It consisted of a choir of wind instru-ments combined with a perfect balance in the string sections. This miniature orchestra possesses most of the qualities of the full symphony orchestra yet at the same time a sweetness and subtle charm which is lost in the larger group. All the members of the Barrere Symphony are notably recognized artists. This event proved to be a fitting climax for a most successful Musical Artists Course. ASSEMELY 1HRODGRAMS Perhaps the outstanding concert given in assembly was that of Catherine Wade Smith, nationally known violinist, on October 18, 1927. Miss Smith has almost perfectly mastered the technique of the violin. She plays with much feeling, getting a clear, pure tone, with a lightness that is remarkable. The Williams Trio of this city entertained in assembly on October 11, and the Underwood String Quartet of Oregon appeared on February 14. The Underwood Quartet presented a program of selections beginning with the old English folk songs up to the modern composers. The quartet carried a perfect balance in all their numbers and obtained beautiful effects in their melodious pieces. William H. Clark, baritone, achieved a tremendous success, and rendered a program which held the interest of the students.. Mr. Clark sings best in songs which call for action, and his rendering of "Danny Deever," by Damrosch, proved this. The "Sleepy Hollow Tune," by Kountz, a dreamy, haunting melody was also well received. The spring quarter was marked with the appearance of Sara Truax, dramatic reader, and David Campbell, pianist. Sara Truax presented two plays, both fitting for Normal audiences and intensely dramatic. She has a wonderful control of her voice and her imitations are perfect. David Campbell gave two interesting recitals, on the seventeenth and twentieth of April, lecturing on the numbers he interpreted. Mr. Campbell's lectures were very well given and informative. NORMAL SCHOOL MUSIC The glee clubs, both boys' and girls', have taken the form of social organi-zations, rather than classes, meeting only when it is convenient, with no restrictions on attendance. The girls have made one public appearance in assembly. During the winter quarter, a grand chorus of one hundred and fifty voices was selected to take part in the musical program at the dedication of the library, May fifth. The numbers by the chorus were: "The Heavens are Telling," from "The Creation," by Haydn, and the "American Ode," by Kountz. The orchestra, of twenty-five pieces, also took part in the dedication program. The number played was the "French Military March," by Saint-Saens.

Opponents 38 STICKNEY Four games won, two games lost; seventy- seven points scored as against thirty-eight points for its opponents-that is the record for the Vikings Varsity grid squad for the 1927 season. The season may be considered a successful one, but not highly successful, for the Tri-Nor-mal championship went to Ellensburg when the SWildcats took the Homecoming game on Novem-ber 5, 12 to 6. The second defeat was suffered when the U. of W. Frosh ran off with the long end of the score on Denny Field in Seattle. THOMPSON Coach Sam Carver and Assistant Coach Earl Jewell sent out the initial football call for Monday, September 19th, a week previous to the starting of school. Twenty men answered the first call, but at the start of school, forty men were out in suits. MOLYNEUX One Hundred Sixteen ----------- Klipsun, 1928 - Page 117 ---------- Nine lettermen were in the lot, and around these, the task of molding the Viking football team was centered. The prospects were sent through a gruelling grind, and it didn't take long for the men to show the results of training. The daily work consisted in charging, setting up exercises, and tackling the dummy. The line in particular looked strong, while the molding of a backfield combination seemed to be Coach Sam Carver's trouble. VIKINGS 31--WEST SEATTLE ATHLETIC CLUB 0 In the opening game of the season, Belling-ham Normal ran rough shod over the West Seattle WEBER Athletic Club, to the tune of 31 to 0. Only two and one-half minutes were required by the Vikings to shove the pigskin over the goal line. HYDE A blocked punt, recovered by Winnie Iverson, husky Viking guard, placed the ball on West Seattle's 25 yard line. A pass, Weber" to Thomp-son, netted 20 yards, and from the five yard line, Hawkings plunged the ball over. Bill Wanamaker figured. in on the next touchdown by blocking a punt, and with a few plays, the ball was placed on West Seattle's 15 yard line. Another pass, Web-er to Thompson, put the ball across the goal. Twice more, the Vikings scored. Armstrong broke lose EDMUNDSON One Hundred Seventeen ----------- Klipsun, 1928 - Page 118 ---------- for a long run which set everyone in a frenzy. It was not only his pretty foot work but also the rythmic blocking of his team mates that contribut-ed toward the scoring of the touchdown. Only once did West Seattle threaten, and that was when they passed up to the one yard line, but here the Vikings put up their characteristic fight and held West Seattle in practically the same place for four successive downs. VIKINGS 6-CHENEY 0 AT CHENEY For three successive periods, Bellingham and ARMSTRONG Cheney went scoreless, but a determined attack on the part of the Vikings in the final moments of play defeated the Savages by a score of 6 to 0. Several times, the Vikings worked the ball up to within scoring distance, but seemed to lack the necessary punch to put the ball across. Captain Harold Hawkings heaved a pass to Thompson, REEVES which placed the ball on the 12 yard line. From here, the forward wall opened up and gave all it had so that the necessary touchdown could be gained. Oscar Thorsen, Molyneux and Eddie Hyde were the outstanding performers of the fray. VIKINGS 7-U. of W. FROSH 13 at SEATTLE Failure to cope with the University Fresh-men's aerial attack was the main cause for the Vikings loss of this game. The Vikings came back in the fourth quarter with an aerial attack that swept the Frosh off their feet, with Erickson passing to Armstrong. No less than eight succes-sive passes were completed, which is a record in itself. The ball was put across the goal line, ERICKSON One Hundred Eighteen ----------- Klipsun, 1928 - Page 119 ---------- and Hawkings drop-kicked for the extra point. After this touchdown, the Vikings went on with the same kind of game, but it was too late, and the game ended with the score standing 13 to 7 in favor of the Fresh. Occie Thorsen played excep-tional ball, stopping plays in their tracks and spilling interference at will. VIKINGS 20-ST. MARTINS 7 ON WALDO FIELD A plunging, charging, Viking football team displayed the greatest offensive power of the seascn when they swept to a brilliant 20 to 7 victory over the St. Martin's eleven, in a bone crushing contest that afforded the capacity gath-ering of spectators many thrills. Coach Sam Car-ver's pets kicked over the proverbial dope bucket, spilling its contents over the sloppy gridiron, by mudding, plunging and passing their way through a bewildered Lacey aggregation, for, GALLENGER three touchdowns and one safety. After perform-ing well, Molyneux, Weber and Erickson were taken from the fray with injuries. Cox played a brilliant game at end, nabbing several difficult passes. VIKINGS 6-ELLENSBURG 12 In this Ellensburg clash, the game Carver and his pets had been pointing towards all year, IVERSON the outstanding play of Vick Peterson, Wildcat safety man, with the end runs of "Tex" Robinson, caused Bellingham's downfall, in the second half. In this fray, as in all other games, the Viking line play was outstanding. Bill Wanamaker was a tower of strength on the forward wall, playing from the tackle position. The game that the Vik-ings had pointed towards was lost by a score of 12 to 6. CHAMBERLAIN One Hundred Nineteen ----------- Klipsun, 1928 - Page 120 ---------- VIKINGS 7-U. of W. SUPER VARSITY 6 A beautifully executed place kick by Leslie Cox gave the Vikings the one point margin that was necessary to win from the University men. A blocked punt put the ball on the Super's 21 yard line. Here Hawkings passed to Armstrong, who wrig-gled his way to the five yard line. Cox Another successful pass put the ball on the one yard line. Chuck Erickson took the ball across the goal line. The U. of W. gridders broke through on one of Chuck Erickson's punts to block it. From the twelve yard line, they carried it across for their lone touchdown.

Playing fourteen games, the Normal Varsity captured five and dropped the others by close margins. While their record is not impressive, the Vikings played good ball and were im-proving rapidly in the final tilts. Summarizing briefly, the following games were played: ISAACSON NORMAL 30-HEATER GLOVE 20 In the opening tilt of the season, the Bellingham Normal team dashed off to an early lead, and held it to the finish when they beat the fast Heater Glove quintet to a 30 to 20 score. Through-out the contest both teams checked closely, displaying fine floor work and defensive play, but hard luck at find-ing the basket. Neither team was able to locate the hoop very consistently; as a re-sult there was little out-standing individual playing. The Seattle quintet rallied in the last half and was up to within three points of the Normal total, but then the Viking offense got going and piled up a comfortable lead which was held for the remainder of the game. Earl Keplinger was high point man of the fray with a total of 12 points. BENSON NORMAL 25 U. OF W. FROSH 38 On the first road trip of the season, the Vikings dropped their first tilt to the Frosh, 38 to 25. The encounter started off with a bang, but before it had gone far, the Husky Babes were in the lead. With Rutherford and Twilliger leading the offense, the year-lings had little difficulty in maintaining a safe advantage all through the contest. NORMAL 17-ST. MARTIN'S 25 In a thrilling game, the second of the first road trip, the Vikings dropped a tough one to the Laceyites. The St. Martin's quintet played a driving and smashing game, charging through consistently for their goals. Burger, guard, was St. Martin's big threat, running wild to score a total of 14 points alone. THORSEN One Hundred Twenty-three ----------- Klipsun, 1928 - Page 124 ---------- NORMAL 6-ELLENSBURG 17 In the first Tri-Normal game of the season, the Vik-ings dropped a hard fought contest, featured by a close checking to the Ellensburg Wildcats. Boasting a State Scholastic Championship team, they had a defense that worked to perfection, it being very seldom that the Vikings came within scoring distance. During the open-ing minutes of play, the Normal boys just couldn't hit the basket, while Ellensburg also had a hard time breaking through the Normal defense. Failure to score, in the opening minutes of play was the chief cause for defeat. ANDERSON NORMAL 29 Earl Keplinger, Viking for- CHENEY 33 ward, and Benner, elongated pivot man for Cheney. Both As the crack of the gun teams played a fine brand ended the fray and the smoke of basketball although the of battle cleared, the final invaders were stronger in score showed the Cheney the scoring department and Savages with a four point held a slight edge in hand-lead over the Bellingham ling the ball. The Vikings Vikings in their big Tri- displayed a good floor game Normal tussle, which was and showed the old fighting played in the Whatcom gym, spirit, but went down to a the final score standing 33 slightly smoother aggrega-to 29. The game was fea- tion. tured by fine shooting by ERICKSON NORMAL 31-ELLENSBURG 42 This was the first of a series of games on a road trip through Eastern Washington and Idaho. Outscored 27 to 6 in the first half, the Vikings came back strong in the last half, revealing their old fighting spirit by a dazzling rally which completely overwhelmed their eastern rivals, but were unable to overcome the 21- point lead piled up the fatal first half. NORMAL 26-YAKIMA 30 The brilliant work of "Zeke" McClurken, sensa-tional Viking forward, who was high point man with 16 markers, featured this tussle. Clarke and Benson also displayed good ball for the Normal quintet. Both displayed good floor work, with an occasional splurge of fine offensive play. JEWELL One Hundred Twenty-four ----------- Klipsun, 1928 - Page 125 ---------- NORMAL 27-CHENEY 45 Cheney again emerged victorious over the Viking hoop quintet by decisively defeating the Bellingham team 45 to 27. This was the third loss suffered on the Eastern road trip. Oscar Thorsen, Bellingham center, led his team in scoring honors, with 10 points to his credit. NORMAL 32- IDAHO FROSH 24 Taking their only victory in the conquest of the Inland Empire, Coach Sam Carver's hoopsters downed the Idaho Frosh in a hard fought mix by a 32 to 24 scor2 in a game played at Moscow. The game was fast and hard fought with both teams playing a good brand of ball. Occie Thorsen ran wild through the opposition to account for 17 of the Viking tallies. NORMAL 14 W. S. C. FROSH 36 Going down to their worst defeat of the trip throughout Eastern Wash-ington, the Normal Vikings fell before the aggressive W. S. C. Frosh, by a score of 36 to 14, in a game that was featured by spectacular shooting and close checking on the part of the Pullman-ites. The Vikings were "not on" and could not get going as a unit, falling before a faster and better groomed bunch of players. MCCLURKEN NORMAL 22- CLARKE NORMAL 28 ST. MARTINS 19 Coming back strong in the last few minutes of the final canto the Normal Vik-ings beat the Laceyite bas-keteers from St. Martin's college 28 to 19 in a sensa-tional game played on the Whatcom floor. The St. Martin's men were unable to cope with the unexpected attack, which was staged in the final minutes of play. -U. OF W. FROSH 32 This was one of the fastest games of the season, fast playing and team work featured by both sides, with the Frosh holding the edge, coming out on top with a 32 to 22 victory. NORMAL 33-COLUMBIA U. 29 Coach Sam Carver's Blue and White cagers broke loose with a driving attack which sent the Columbia lads from the Webfoot state home with a 29 to 38 defeat hung around their necks. The Vikings displayed a surprising offensive attack which centered around Thorsen, flashy center, who developed another one of his complexes with a sum total of 14 points. Working as a team the locals fought on to a decisive victory.

LANLLALL The Viking baseball men have been performing nobly on the diamond and the way things look now, it seems that Bellingham Normal will be represented by a versatile ball club. The return to school of two of last year's veterans, Ray Odell and Eddie Wingard, second baseman and chucker respectively, greatly encouraged Earl Jewell, who is coaching baseball, while Carver is looking after his track duties. At the time of this writing, the Viking diamond men have whitewashed several high school teams, and if they click the old horsehide at the present clip, they should have no trouble in winning the Tri-Normal Cham-pionship. Batteries for the games will consist of "Bush" Smith, behind the plate, and Eddie Wingard and "Granny" Thorlakson, doing the hurling. Both these men are dangerous with the club and, while they are performing in the box, will possibly resume duties in other parts of the field. With Thorsen at first base, Odell at second, Zeke McClurken at short, and Pinky Parker at the hot corner, a fast infield combination will be worked up before the season is over. Parker seems to be the weak spot at this time, but he is a hard worker and should have no trouble in overcoming his difficulties. Johnson, Clarke, and Bailey, all good wielders of the stick, will resume fly chasing responsibilities. Many other men are out working hard for posi-tions but at the present time, this seems to be the team that will represent the Normal on the 1928 diamond in the Tri-Normal games and other tilts with minor colleges of the state. One Hundred Twenty-seven ----------- Klipsun, 1928 - Page 128 ---------- TOP--Alfred Standen, Earl Hemmi, Robert Cox, John Bright, Karl Weber, Stanley Thompson, Ray Bright. SECOND-Tom Marsden, Tinval Brinkman, Neil Miller, Clarence Axelson, Wilfred Reeves, Elton Korsboen. FIRST-Frank Gallanger, Paul Howell, Foster Kirk, Charles Erickson, Roy Arnett, Ben Hamilton. TIRACL Coach Sam Carver seems to be well pleased with his men at this stage of the season and chances to win the Tri-Normal meet seem excellent. Both Ellens-burg and Cheney are totally unknown quantities so far, but as Viking athletes now are far superior to last year's title-holders, the locals should walk off with Tri-Normal honors. Although weak in the high jump, broad jump, pole vault, and hurdles, Coach Carver's 1928 track team is unusually good in other events. Five letter-winners of former years are leading the pack of aspiring heroes, which includes numerous unknowns and young hopefuls. Earl Hemmi, Bob Cox, and Ben Hamilton, star sprinters, should give Normal the strongest combination in the short runs that it has had for years. All three are exceptionally fast men and have had much experience. Bill Reeves, 440 yard man is good but at present his chief difficulty is getting into condition. If he is able to round himself into shape, he should be a sure point getter in this year's meet. Frank Gallanger, winner of the half-mile run last year is out again, and should win this year. Tinval Brinkman, who hails from Ferndale, looks at this time to be the best man in the distances, with Ray Jewell running a close second. Roy Arnett, last year's best discus hurler in the Tri-Normal meet, will have to step on it to take first in this event this year as he will now be in faster company. Oscar Thorsen is out throwing the plate around, and at the rate he is progressing should win a place in the Tri-Normal meet. Ray Jewell is the best in the shot. "Chuck" Erickson, winner of last year's javelin throw at the State High School meet, should have no difficulty in that event and should take first place in the Tri- Normal meet with ease. The big meet of the year is at Ellensburg, where the three Normal Schools will vie with each other for Tri-Normal supremacy, Cheney, Ellensburg and Bellingham competing. One Hundred Twenty-eight ----------- Klipsun, 1928 - Page 129 ---------- With two veterans back and much untested material out for the Normal tennis team, strength at first and second place is assured but the strength of the Viking third will be doubtful, considering the performance of those out for the third post. Fisher and Thal, both dependable portsiders, are back to earn their letters again this year. Among those out for third place, Hamilton and Bond seem to be the best racquet wielders. Bob Fisher, lanky lefthander, who was second man on last year's varsity squad, probably will be first man this year. Fisher relies on a consistent driv-ing game to keep him to the fore. As a rule he plays a back court game, occasion-ally resorting to a net game, his height and reach aiding him considerably. He has a strong service, which will play havoc with his opponents this year. His reverse service is death on right handers, and it is almost impossible to drive. Myer Thal is also a left-hander and unless something radical happens, he should be second man without any fight whatever. His strength lies particularly in the driving game throughout, as he is consistently strong on the backhand. Third place will have to be fought out, but at the present time, the two logical contenders for it are Hamilton and Bond, with Bond having a slight edge. If Elden Bond is on, you might almost say that he could beat the world, but the trouble is-that he is seldom on. Bond resorts wholly to a smashing game, while. Hamilton lies back, plays steady, and hopes to gain by his oppo-nent's mistakes or errors. This year's tennis team will travel to Ellensburg to take part in the Tri- Normal Tennis meet, and there they will have a record to uphold. Bellingham Normal has not lost a single match in the years of Tri-Normal competition. Coach Sam Carver may make arrangements with the U. of W. Frosh and minor colleges of the state.

"A sport for every girl and a girl for every sport," is the aim of the Women's Athletic Association in this school. The Department of Physical Education for Women plans to have every girl who turns out for a sport, a member of an intra-mural team. Classes select girls who are to represent them on the inter-class teams. "All- Star" teams of the school are picked by the coaches and the athletic managers. Once a quarter a Sports' Banquet is held. The Board of Control awards sweaters to those girls making eight first teams and gives to them sports letters. Girls' athletics during the year 1927 and 1928 have been coached to a finer degree than in former years. Miss Beth Bowen and Miss Bertha Keller have together supervised the All-Season sports, while Miss Theresa Peters has charge of the Festival Dancing. Miss George has charge of hiking. An outline of the sports offered to the women in this school during this year, is as follows: Fall Quarter HOCKEY SOCCER VOLLEY BALL HIKING Winter Quarter BASKETBALL VOLLEY BALL SWIMMING HIKING Spring Quarter SWIMMING ARCHERY BASEBALL TRACK TENNIS RING TENNIS HAND BALL RIDING QUOITS NATURAL DANCING HIKING -One Hundred Thirty ----------- Klipsun, 1928 - Page 131 ---------- SOPHOMORE TEAM Dorothy McCool, Katherine Lawrence, Viola Searing, Anna Hicklin, Edith Gunderson, Mary Fox, Grace Neely, Nellie Barton, Jean Williams. s0iC6ER11 { Soccer held an important place in sports this year. Since its introduction into Women's Athletics in the fall of 1926 by Miss Bertha Keller, it has become one of the major sports. After weeks of preliminary practise in dribbling, kicking and blocking, intra-mural teams were chosen. Each girl made an intra-mural. Then followed the inter-class practise, and games between the freshmen and sophomores. FRESHMAN TEAM Virginia Bever, Rosa Van Ess, Frieda Massey, Lempi Koli, Genevieve Evatt, Helen Neilson, Elina Keltanen, Lillian Wendland, Grace Clampett, Ruth Bradley. Keen interest followed this sport all during the quarter. The sophomores tried to down the freshmen in order to annex a championship, but the freshmen had too fast and accurate a team; so the soccer season ended with a tie, neither team winning. However, the players who excelled in skill, sportsmanship and fine spirit were elected for the "All-Star" honor team. Miss Keller coached. One Hundred Thirty-one ----------- Klipsun, 1928 - Page 132 ---------- FRESHMAN TEAM Irene Larson, Margaret Wyant, Elizabeth Carl, Helen Neilson, Jennie Soboliski, Lempi Koli, Rosa Ott, Katherine Foster, Naomi Chase, Jean Marquis, Virginia Bever, Lillian Wendland, Grace Clampett. HOCKL Hockey, since its introduction into girls' athletics by Miss Kathleen Skalley in 1925, has become one of the most popular and successful sports of the year. This is one of the most difficult games for a team to play, as it requires cooperation, a quick eye, and a ready stick. Good sportsmanship was ever present this year. Maude Seward, Golda Abel, Lillian SOPHOMORE TEAM Ott, Mary Fox, Martha Gesdahl, Edith Gunderson, Nellie Barton. After a number of practises, teams were chosen. The sophomores not being able to down the freshmen in soccer thought they might gain the coveted champion-ship for hockey, but it was of no avail. The freshmen tied the sophomores. So again we had a sport season ending with a tie. An "All-Star" honor team was selected in Hockey. Miss Beth Bowen coached this sport.

VOLLE AI ALL Volley Ball is often said to be the best sport for girls. In this game many may play; each one has a responsible part and must keep a keen and alert mind. Team work and cooperation on the part of every member is a requisite for success. As in other sports, intra-mural and inter-class games were played. A great deal of enthusiasm and keen spirit were shown in the class games between the Sopho- Violet Graham, Katherine Lawrence, SOPHOMORE TEAM Jean Williams, Olga Stenvaag, Martha Gesdahl, Edith Gunderson mores and the freshmen. But- the freshmen proved "you can't keep a good man down" by winning the championship. An "All-Star" honor team was picked by the Physical Education Faculty, and Manager. This team was composed of both sophomores and freshmen girls. Miss Beth Bowen and Miss Bertha Keller coached this game. One Hundred Thirty-three ----------- Klipsun, 1928 - Page 134 ---------- SOPHOMORE TEAM Violet Graham, Katherine Lawrence, Mary Fox, Anna Hicklin, Claire Beckwith, Anna Mura, Grace Neely, Catherine Otin, Jean Williams. Basketball has always been a major sport in this school. It was enjoyed by a large number of girls who turned out in the winter quarter. Competition was keen betweeen teams and enthusiasm was at its height because every girl was on an intra-mural team, thus making every one interested in the sport. The class teams were elected by the girls, and the championship games were played off, with a victory to the sophomores. Grace Neely had the best record at basket shooting The freshmen were out-played in all departments of the game but tried stubbornly to score. FRESHMAN TEAM Rosa Ott, Beatrice Johnson, Alice Sundquist, Lillian Wendland, Jeanette Mackie, Dorothy Sollie, Katherine Foster, Elina Keltanen, Arlene Johanson, Josephine Quackenbush. With hiking for women students now an all-year sport, the Women's Athletic Association is planning to give girls opportunities to enjoy the out-of-doors. Some trips are taken to nearby islands, lakes, and small mountains. Other longer trips are taken to Kulshan Cabin, and the Mount Baker region. Miss George is sponsor of all hikes.

ITRACK Track is a sport which gives every girl a chance to show any special skills that she has developed in throwing, running and jumping. A class track meet is held on Field Day, on which day competition is always keen between the sophomores and freshmen. Both classes have individuals who excel in hurdles, broad and high jumping and discus throwing. The relay is often the deciding event.

Intra-murals are picked and are seen on the diamond at Waldo Field. Class teams are selected and they are practicing prior to the championship games. The sophomores seem to have the upper hand but the freshmen are going to "turn the tables" and get a victory from the "age old sophomores." One Hundred Thirty-five ----------- Klipsun, 1928 - Page 136 ---------- ALL-STAR TEAM Irene Larson, Vera Ginnette, Rose Brooks, Beth Coglan, Aileen Arland, Martha Gesdahl, Evaline Cowan. SWIMMING Swimming, that "splashing sport" which affords joy and pleasure to so many girls here, was more popular this year than last, due to the coaches, Miss Bowen, and Miss Sullivan, who took Miss Bowen's place during the spring quarter. On March 9, 1928, at the Y. W. C. A. pool, the sophomores and freshmen had a "Water Carnival," in which the two teams contested for first place in plunge for distance, relay, speed and form in stroke, diving and retrieving relay. The sopho-mores proved victorious and annexed the championship.

A RCHERY "I sent an arrow into the air. It fell to earth, I know not where!" This statement is quite true-according to the girls turning out for archery. It is a thrilling and exciting sport. Since the introduction of archery in 1927, it has become enormously popular. Keen eyes and accuracy are the prerequisites to skill. Archery is great fun for all turning out. One Hundred Thirty- six ----------- Klipsun, 1928 - Page 137 ---------- Vera Ginnette, Thelma Borgen, Lyn Hughes, Naomi Chase, Jean Marquis, Mary Fox, Arlene Johanson, Doris Brown, Elsie Rapier, Gertrude Oien, Beatrice Johnson, Irene Larson, Mary Nielolson. Was tennis a popular and a very much enjoyed sport at school this year? What a question! But it may be answered easily if one will think of all the girls turning out at seven in the morning. This year tennis has really embarked on a major sport basis. Instruction for the squad at regular practice times on Tuesdays and Thursdays added interest to the season. Class competition in singles, doubles and mixed doubles made Field Day a real finale for tennis. Esther Forsgren, Florence McKenzie, Lorna Weber, Evelyn Heidenstrom, Billie Howe, Dorothy McCool, Zylpha Thurston, Frances Mullen, Lenore White, Adelma Peterson. NHATURIAL DANHCING A new activity which is offered on the campus is that of Natural Dancing, in which those interested interpret music through the art of dancing. A dance recital is one of their aims. This school is very fortunate in having Miss Peters to coach dancing. RIIDING AND HANDI ALL Riding and Handball were two activities, which were enjoyed by a large number of girls. Riding proved very popular to the enthusiastic group of girls who signed up with Miss Keller early in the spring quarter. Riding, besides being an enjoyed recreation, is also a healthful activity. Handball artists met with Miss Keller on Waldo Field and many thrilling afternoons were spent in playing this much enjoyed sport.
