To this spirit of youth, we dedicate our annual. ----------- Klipsun, 1933 - Page [vi] ---------- The Contents Administration The School Training School Story of Sports Story of the Year School Life ----------- Klipsun, 1933 - Page [vii] ---------- The Campus Quiet Moments From School to Hall The Library The Lower Walk ----------- Klipsun, 1933 - Page [viii] ---------- QUIET MOMENTS TRANQUIL TREES AND IVIED WALLS ----------- Klipsun, 1933 - Page [ix] ---------- FROM SCHOOL TO HALL THEY STOP TO CHAT AND DREAM ----------- Klipsun, 1933 - Page [x] ---------- THE LIBRARY STUDENTS WANDER FROM WORK TO PLAY 1 ----------- Klipsun, 1933 - Page [xi] ---------- THE LOWER WALK THEY STROLL UNDER SPREADING BRANCHES ----------- Klipsun, 1933 - Page [xii] ---------- [no text this page] ---------- Klipsun, 1933 - Page [xiii] ---------- ~IL 2li -~? 1 rnr~ :1 ie ivir~i ie~ i: 1 :r:r ----------- Klipsun, 1933 - Page [xiv] ---------- _. _ . - ,-_,_ , .3 ..

How to distribute plenty requires a change in thinking and technique. Everything needs to be done is the challenge thrown out to youth. Educa-tion must have a program of action for a new deal. We need an education that educates for all the needs of life. We need schools that aim to make a better society. We need young people who have caught the vision of the possi-bilities of education to build a better society. Students of 1933 have studied and played as former students have done but I have sensed a more serious purpose born out of an economic and political crisis. It is my sincere hope that the days spent here in study and play have helped students to be equal to the challenge of a new era. C. H. FISHER. Thirteen ----------- Klipsun, 1933 - Page 14 ---------- Deans of the School Three persons are largely re-sponsible for the pleasant associa-tions which Normal students have during their residence in Belling-ham. These persons solve the problems and arrange the details of school life, and they must be generous in their judgment. Each quarter as the students change classes and newcomers enroll it is the duty of the deans to assist if any difficulty arises. These three individuals are James Bever, dean of the school; Adele M. Jones, dean of women, and W. J. Marquis, dean of men. These are the persons who aid in making the adjustments necessary to changing conditions and environment. In Dean Bever students find a sympathetic helper for their diffi- culties. He aids them in planning courses and making satisfactory changes in curricula. It is through the dean's office that early registra-tion for succeeding quarters can be effected. Very few enrolled at Nor- Bever mal do not come in close contact Jones with Dean Bever during their three Marquis year course. Miss Nora B. Cummins took over the duties of the dean of the school during winter quarter this year, in Dean Bever's absence. Her sane, serious consideration of registration problems made registering comparatively simple. Dean Adele Jones was of particular help to the women of the school during fall quarter. Her special task at this time concerned getting comfortable, pleasant homes for out-of-town students. It is to her that girls go for consul on personal matters or school affairs. The same cordial welcome is extended to all who consult her. Dean Marquis settles the men's problems with tact and skill. Men students find him always sympathetic and encouraging. His kindness and service have made him invaluable to the school. Fourteen ----------- Klipsun, 1933 - Page 15 ---------- Library Staff Miss Mabel Zoe Wilson, the head librarian, has, through her efficient staff, rendered invaluable service to students. The staff is composed of Miss Beatrice Doty, children's librarian; Miss Pearl Reese, reserve librarian; Miss La Verne Farlow, charging desk; Mrs. E. P. Spearin, reference librarian; and Miss Lillian George, cataloguer. A number of student assistants, chosen by Miss Wilson, are working under the staff mem-bers. The Juvenile Library, conducted in connection with the Campus School, is most valuable in the actual contact which the students have with a children's library under working conditions. To the chil-dren the library is a source of un-limited information and a priceless convenience. A very complete reference library and periodical room are maintained and are at the disposal of the stu-dents. Once a year a class is given in Wilson Doty Reese Farlow Library Instruction for the purpose Spearin George of acquainting the student with the material the library has to offer, and the technicalities of its use. An attitude of maturity and appreciation is essential to the student of the course and it is toward this end that Miss Wilson directs her efforts. The library building, a beautiful example of Romanesque archi-tecture, harmonizes with the main building. The walls are hand decorated, and the windows are of stained glass. The children's library, reserve book room, and current periodicals as well as a faculty reading room, and a conference room are located on the first floor. On the second floor is located the main reading room, closed stacks, card catalogue, a workroom, and the offices of the head librarian, the cataloguer, and the reference librarian.

Assistant to School Nurse Bouck Buchanan Flick Hays Hughes Persohn Practically all business matters connected with the school are handled through the Business Office which is managed by an efficient staff. The Service Department, in charge of Mrs. Lovegren, prepares the tests and other mimeographed material for use. Here also are kept available maps, readings, and other such materials for student use. An office training force is maintained, where practical experience in office work is given. The Junior Viking is mimeographed in this department with the help of the students of the Campus Elementary School. Mrs. Lovegren has been experimenting this year with a type-writing class for upper grade students in the Campus Elementary School and the high degree of the interest manifested indicates her success.

Adviser With the increased membership, due to the new attendance require-ments, the junior class has become the most active class of the school. Heretofore, students who have completed a two- year curriculum have been granted elementary di-plomas which are valid in the ele-mentary schools of the state. Ac-cording to the new regulations, stu-dents who are graduated this year must complete eight quarters of work and those completing the Jones Gallanger course after September 1, 1933, must Wheeler Shaffer meet the requirements of nine Hoppe quarters of work. By an act of the legislature of 1933, the Bachelor of Arts degree in Education which entitles the holder to teach in the elementary schools and the junior high schools may be granted by the Normal schools of the State of Washington. Since these laws have become effective this year, the class has grown considerably. Graduation now occurs in the third and fourth years with all commencement activities controlled by junior-senior com- mittees instead of the sophomore class which has had charge in the past. This year the class voted to combine its spring activities with the entire school in helping put over the All-School picnic. Because of Margaret Wheeler's withdrawal from school, Marjorie Goss was elected secretary-treasurer for the spring quarter. Twenty-five ----------- Klipsun, 1933 - Page 26 ---------- ABBOTT, EDITH A.

I. C. C. Representative DR. E. A. BOND Allen Albert Bond Adviser Rockey Lensrud In the new order of events, the Sophomores no longer graduate in June, a three-year curriculum having been adopted. This fact, however, has not prevented the sophomores from carrying out a full program this year. A highlight was the big sophomore dance of November 5. The "hell" idea was developed with great secrecy, and a reproduction of hell's mouth startled students as they entered the big gym. A graveyard completely equipped with epitaphs was present. As an intermission number, Aubrey Lundberg in a contortion act, imperson-ated Satan. The success of the affair was due to the efforts of June Welch, general chairman, and a capable corps of assistants. In the spring quarter the sophomores joined with the other classes to make the all-school picnic a success. Forty-two ----------- Klipsun, 1933 - Page 43 ---------- Freshman Class MICKEY CLARK .

The first big deed attributed to the frosh was the gathering of wood for the Homecoming bonfire. Guarding this fuel was an arduous task, but within the capabilities of the classmen. H. B. Smith was elected adviser in the fall, but because of illness, he was succeeded by Mrs. May Lovegren. Mickey Clark, elected in the fall quarter, did not return to school in the winter, and Jim Campbell was selected to finish the year as president. A valentine dance was sponsored by the class on February 11. Jack Hogan, general chairman, supervised the affair, with the time honored heart motif used cleverly in the decorations. Entertainment features included dancing, cards and a program.

Rich Training School After a broad background of social, cultural, and general educative experience, the prospective teacher feels the need for actual experience in guiding children's learning and an opportunity to strive for a tech-nique by which the most can be accomplished. This opportunity is found in the Training School which includes some of the schools of Bellingham's city system, some of the rural schools and the Campus Elementary School. Here students are privileged to observe pro- gressive teachers as they work and later to actually teach under their intelligent guidance. They then receive constructive criticism and help in meeting problems as they arise, problems of the group or con- cerning the individual child. They are encouraged to use their own initiative as well and to become independent. In short, the classroom teachers and the supervisors are anxious for a well rounded teacher just as the teacher is concerned with the all around development of the pupil. The functions of the elementary student body are brought into harmonious relations with this important phase of teacher training through the efforts and ability of Miss Mary E. Rich, Director of the Training School. Forty-five ----------- Klipsun, 1933 - Page 46 ---------- The Junior Viking The completion of an issue of the Junior Viking is eagerly antici-pated by each student of the Campus Elementary School because he feels it is his own magazine, and because it is something he has helped to make. The Eighth Grade has assumed the responsibility of holding one intermediary position and this is one feature which makes the maga-zine stand distinct, in that no one of the nine reporters writes the ma-terial which he secures from the grades, unless, occasionally, in the form of an interview. The business of the reporter then, is to keep in touch with the classroom teacher and to be alert concerning the activities of the room he has chosen to represent. At the end of each week the Editor, Business Manager, and the two Art Editors come together with the re-porters and their adviser to survey the work gathered from the grades. There they decide which of the stories, group compositions, poems and pictures will have a place in the magazine. In the picture above a drawing from Pre-primary is being considered. In each edition there is a definite attempt to have something dif-ferent in content and arrangement. This time better choice of vo-cabulary and more creative writing have been emphasized. A constant touch with good magazines of other schools has also given ideas for improvement; the idea of having articles accompanied by sketches was noticed in a California publication. Just as each grade and as many children as possible are represented in the magazine, so each child in the Eighth Grade is a member of the editing staff. This representation of pupils is a vital factor contributing to the success of the Junior Viking and unifying the school in a valuable and highly educational manner. Forty-six ----------- Klipsun, 1933 - Page 47 ---------- The Kindergarten Experiences offered the child in a Kindergarten of this progressive type are definitely of value. Here is the opportunity to work and play that calls forth growth. Working with clay, painting clay, painting at the easels or on large panels, sewing, working with wood, block build-ing or working with puzzles, whatever the child may be doing, a chal-lenge is there and consequently provides for development. There is a gain in confidence and assurance as they work with these things and progress in desirable traits, habits and attitudes. All the activities are real work to the child and he feels that he has achieved. On the other hand improvement in each successive piece of work is stressed. The standard building takes place in discussion periods when the work accomplished is talked over by the children with the teacher as a guide, helping to organize ideas and striving for constructive criticism from the group. Ideas for improvement come from the group or may be conceived by the child or suggested by the teacher. The teacher watches for increased initiative, responsibility, and self-reliance, for greater muscular control and motor ability. She is alert to help with individual problems, ready to cope with individual diffi-culties, and understands the individual needs and capacities of the chil-dren she is working with. The day the picture above was taken there seemed to be greater initiative and independence evident throughout the group; everyone found work without suggestions, and there was a wide variety of ac-tivities. In short, the group had attained a higher level in their all around development, which is the goal of the Pre-Primary. Forty-seven ----------- Klipsun, 1933 - Page 48 ---------- Second Grade Assembly "Alice in Wonderland" was read to these Second Grade children and they enjoyed it so much that they were eager to share it. They decided the best way to do so would be a dramatization in assembly. Heretofore their plays were spontaneous but for this a different plan was used, making it a little more formal, as characters were selected and lines were actually learned. The children received as much pleas-ure in their preparation and in the making of the scenery as from the actual production. This picture shows Alice meeting White Rabbit. Campus School Fifth Grade Assembly All the fifth grade children are on the stage ready to show the Campus School children what they do in school. In the background are ten large panels which the children drew to show interesting scenes in Yellowstone National Park. A picture which illustrates a story of an adventure from a child's autobiography is on the easel. On the table are articles used when they made paper. They made block prints and used some of this paper to make cards. The boys in the foreground are operating a telegraph set. Forty-eight ----------- Klipsun, 1933 - Page 49 ---------- Fifth and Sixth Grade Gym Class This picture shows the fifth and sixth grade girls in their gym class. They are playing Newcombe, a game of low organization, which is preliminary to those requiring greater skill. They play seasonal games, such as soccer in the fall, throwing and catching games in the winter and baseball and speedball in the spring. The aim is to perfect these seasonal games. This program of the fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth grades includes individualized sports like tennis as well as the group activities. Seventh Grade Geometry The purpose of the geometry course here is to make the children mathematically observant, intelligent, and to develop appreciation of geometric figures in common life. This class had been studying the rectagle triangle, and was interested in finding out why a triangle rather than a rectangle is used to support shelves, in the construction of bridges, or in a tripod. Discoveries are made by intuition and ex-periment. The child at the front of the group in the picture is illus-trating what the group has found by experiment, that a triangle keeps its shape and is a more rigid figure than a rectangle. Forty-nine ----------- Klipsun, 1933 - Page 50 ---------- English Hour at Roeder The English work is here centered around the making of a maga-zine. The children wanted a way of preserving the stories they had been writing. Some suggested making a magazine because it would include not only stories, but their descriptions and records of conversa-tions as well. In the picture the group is studying types of magazines to secure suggestions for constructing their own. Each child will be represented and each is eager to contribute. First Grade Reading at Washington While one group is working with the teacher in a regular reading period, the other children in this room are absorbed in a wide variety of activities. Painting, sewing, playing house, painting at the easel, and drawing at the blackboard are among the many things the chil-dren are doing. They have chosen their activities according to their interests with suggestions but no dictation from the teacher. Their independence makes it possible for the reading class to continue without interruption. Fifty ----------- Klipsun, 1933 - Page 51 ---------- Social Science in the Franklin School During spring vacation several children from this grade wanted to visit the Federal District Court to learn how people became naturalized citizens of the United States. When school began they wanted to describe their experience to the rest of the group. They planned to use whatever material they found at hand to make a clear picture of just how the judges and clerks did their work. This picture shows the new citizens in the midst of taking the oath of allegience to the United States. Library Corner at Washington School A branch of the city library provides a good selection of books for these children. This insures the reading of books of a higher literary quality and makes for wiser discrimination in the use of a public library. Their selection is guided, too, by a list of good books constantly revised in the school room. Another feature of this system is the guidance of a teacher who has the confidence of her group. The class enjoys a library period in the schoolroom. Returning and checking out books is cared for by the children. Fifty-one ----------- Klipsun, 1933 - Page 52 ---------- Victor School Playground The program of the schools of the Meridian Consolidated District takes the children out of doors when possible for a period of organized play in the middle of the morning and mid- afternoon. Many new games are taught each week to give variety and all-round physica4 development, and these games are played not so much to win as for the joy of playing. Rhythmic plays and folk and singing games are also a part of this play program. On warm sunny days the phono-graph is taken out of doors where rhythms and folks dances are played on the grass. Circle formation is a part of the game being played by the children in the picture. The Elbonita School Here is a country school adapted to community needs, for the two room building is partitioned with folding doors which provide one large room for occasional community gatherings as well as school assemblies and entertainments. During the school hours the upper and lower grades are separated by the doors and classroom work is carried on in the regular way. Some corners of the room have a display of work, but the farther corner in the picture is reserved for the library. This picture includes the two rooms during Library Read-ing period for the various groups formed according to ability and interest. Some children are discussing and reporting on books they have read. Fifty-two ----------- Klipsun, 1933 - Page 53 ---------- Primary Classes at Laurel This picture shows the First and Second Grade children as they are working in their room. One child is at the easel and others are drawing at the tables. The children in one of the groups are discussing some of the pictures they have drawn. The other group is reading. Some children are reading at the library table. These books they have chosen from the library shelves. The independence of the children in selecting work to do allows the reading and other activities to continue without interruption. The picture clearly shows the variety of work possible in a regular classroom. The Seventh Grade Laurel School This picture shows committee organization for upper grade work used though the number of pupils in the class is large. Occasionally subject matter lends itself to this type of procedure in which small groups or committees independently work out phases of a major prob-lem. A chairman keeps the group organized and reports to the class achievements and conclusions of the committee which are carefully checked by the teacher. Discussion takes place in each section and also at the times when the entire class comes together for committee reports. The committees above are working out problems concerned with Westward Expansion in the United States, a unit in their History.

Better turn-outs for games, more spirited send-offs and welcomes, a deeper in-terest even in the face of defeat-that's the story of the revival of the school spirit that has so long been lacking. Pep has been conspicuous by its ab-sence in the past few years, but a turn-ing, a comeback of that old battler, School Spirit, has placed our standard of athletics on a higher level and will continue to boost it higher. Carrying out a full program of ath-letic participation, catering to the many and not the few, has been the " aim of the athletic department at the Normal School. Coaches Sam E. Car-ver and Royal E. Gunn have guided this program and have worked it to the highest degree of efficiency in the development of growing young men. Crazy antics at the games, unortho-dox appearances at the assemblies, and pep and chatter at all Normal athletic contests, was the objective sought for and attained by Yell King Art Pearson and Duke Vernon Leatha at the games last fall and this spring. Attendance at the games was stimulated by their efforts and enthusiasm. Fifty-five ----------- Klipsun, 1933 - Page 56 ---------- Coach Sam E. Carver 'r For the past many years Coach Carver has coached, drilled and organized the football, basketball : .,..iir , and track teams here. He has ::,".:,: studied under famous coaches at the Universities of California, Stanford and Oregon with results. Next fall he will have complete charge of the physical education program. Carver will fit into his new position very well as he has worked in this type of work here at. the Normal and organization and development are right in his line. Captains Viking team captains are not necessarily the "best" players, but the outstanding leaders and sportsmen. Ray Sulkosky Jr., instilled more pep and action into the Viking grid machine last fall than any team here has had for many years. Jim Rork piloted the Normal hoopsters through a better-than-average season. Walt "Mercury" Schlilaty set an excellent example for his mates by walking off with high honors and fast time in the century and furlong. Willie Houghton climaxed a brilliant career at Normal by leading the racqueteers through a great season. Harold Lahtonen guided the divot diggers this year. Schlilaty, Lahtoncn, Rork, Houghton, Sulkosky Fifty-six ----------- Klipsun, 1933 - Page 57 ---------- Assistant Coach Royal E. Gunn A former football man and gradu-ate of this school, Assistant Coach "Pop" Gunn has done much in de- . veloping and organizing athletic : teams. Before baseball was aban- doned at the Normal, Coach Gunn turned out teams that wielded big sticks in the enemy camps of this league. He assists. Coach Carver in the other sports and leads the Junior Varsity basketball squad. He also handles the Intra-Mural baseball league and has placed that sport on a high recreational standard for the participants. Managers In order that any sports program or athletic organization may run smoothly and efficiently it is necessary to have carefully selected athletic managers to handle equipment, keep the gridiron, basketball floor, and track in good shape, and work over minor injuries and muscle ailments for the athletes. Carter and Shaffer have handled this work for some time and added Richardson to their staff last fall. These men have done their work well and deserve a great deal more credit than they usually get. They are truly the men behind the wheel. Richardson, Carter, Schaffer Fifty-seven ----------- Klipsun, 1933 - Page 58 ---------- Martin, Schlilaty, Good Flowers, Brinkman, Sinko Smith, Bagley Pacific Lutheran vs. Vikings The Vikings entered their first gridiron contest of the 1932 season with the Pacific Lutheran Gladiators from Ta-coma on the local field. The local eleven presented one of the finest defenses in years and held the hefty visitors to a stand-still in the first three quarters. Two poor punts, a completed pass, and three line bucks gave the Tacoma team their margin of victory. The try for point was successful on a short pass into the end zone. The first half featured a punting duel between Smith, Bellingham, and Hanson, of the Gladiators. The Vikings were content to play defensive ball throughout the battle and com-pletely stopped the po wer drives of the big backs from the visiting team. Fifty-eight ----------- Klipsun, 1933 - Page 59 ---------- St. Martins vs. Vikings Continuing their defensive style of play, the local eleven tangled with the highly- touted Rangers from St. Martins in their second start of the season. It was a muddy battle from the start to finish with the visitors slithering to the Viking's one-yard line twice in the first quar-ter only to be held for downs by the strong forward wall of the Carver men. Art Smith's brilliant sixty yard run to the Ranger's twen-ty yard marker featured the second quarter of play. This was as close as the Vikings could penetrate to the enemy's goal line and fell back to halt the Ranger attacks for the re-mainder of the game. This game was one of the finest seen here in years as the Rangers, top-heavy favorites to swamp the local eleven, were stopped dead by the Vikings who out-played and out-gained the visi-tors in this scoreless game. Christy, Turner, Partis, Flint Lenhart, Hermsen, Berg, Finley Fifty-nine ----------- Klipsun, 1933 - Page 60 ---------- Banner, Roberts, Jones Brewer, VanOver, Gable, McLean Ellensburg vs. Vikings Breaks played a leading role at Ellensburg Normal in their annual tussle with the Belling-ham eleven. The Vikings, still greatly weakened from the C. P. S. struggle, were unable to keep their first half stride click-ing and lost 26-0. Playing like a possessed machine, the Bel-lingham team held its surprised opponents to one touchdown during the first two periods. During the second half the scenes changed and the Wild-cats quickly pushed over three more touchdowns. B loc k ed punts, fumbles, in t e r c e p t e d passes were prevalent in the eastern team's favor. Ample substitutes strengthened the Wildcats as the game drew to a close, but the Vikings drove to the three yard line as the game ended. Sixty ----------- Klipsun, 1933 - Page 61 ---------- College of Puget Sound vs. Vikings In their first out of town visit the Vikings received a thorough trouncing from their ancient ri-vals at C. P. S., 30-0. The Vik-ings' only chance to score, their passing attack, was rendered nil by a wet, muddy field. The five touchdowns were made as a re-sult of a drive down the field in which the Loggers' interference was outstanding. Inj uries before aod during the game handicapped the Vikings usual gallant defensive stands. Captain Ray Sulkosky tow-ered head and shoulders above the remainder of the field with his bracing, brilliant defensive tactics. Three teams of nearly equal strength were sent against the local outfit and wore them down until the second half became a track meet for the Tacoma aggrega-tion. The score stood 6-0 at half. Sulkosky, Hollowell, Comfort Charlesworth, Cole Sixty-one ----------- Klipsun, 1933 - Page 62 ---------- Berg, Flowers, Flint, Bagley, Capt. Sulkosky, Turner, Knutsen Banner, Gable, Partis, Brewer, Finley, Lenhart, Hermsen, McLean Assistant Coach Gunn, Brinkman, Christy, Comfort, VanOver, Hallowell, Cole, Charlesworth, Coach Carver Smith, Sinko, Good, Martin, Jones, Schlilaty, Roberts Cheney vs. Vikings With Homecoming spirit running riot and a capacity crowd present, the Bellingham Vikings forgot their defensive angle of the game and proceeded to give the Cheney Savages the biggest surprise of their season. The Vikings exhibited a stalwart brand of football that saw them out-play the heavier and favored visitors only to lose 7-6. The opening minutes of play saw the Savages drive steadily down the field to score and convert in one continuous march. In the third quarter, on a per-fectly executed play, Walt Sinko, behind beautiful interference, dashed through a broken field thirty yards for a touchdown. Conversion was blocked. During the last quarter the Vikings continued to drive desperately and were constantly knocking in Savage scoring territory. The game ended with the Vikings holding the ball on the enemy's five yard line with their second big chance at their finger-tips. Sixty-two ----------- Klipsun, 1933 - Page 63 ---------- VIKINGS MAKE A TOUCHDOWN Football Review Any clues for a winning team were missing in the Normal turnout last fall when Coach Sam Carver issued his first call for grid players. The clouds were not all black, though, with Flowers, Brinkman, Sinko, Smith and Williams, returning veterans from the year before, reporting. The forward wall looked much stronger with plenty of defensive strength in Brewer, Comfort, Blanton, Turner, Falkner, Berg, Van Over and Flint returning from the year previous. Ray Sulkosky filled a big hole at guard with Gable and Partis, new-comers, holding the end berths most of the season. Finley alternated with Berg at center during the year with Christy, Charlesworth and Martin plugging holes in the line. Beaton fitted in well in the backfield. The squad tackled a hard schedule and although the win column was nil, no team ever played such defensive ball as did the Vikings dur-ing the 1932 season. The St. Martins and Cheney games are examples. The "perfect play" on Waldo Field last season goes to the Vikings with Sinko slashing forty yards through the entire Cheney team to score the first big hit of the Homecoming celebration. Sixty-three ----------- Klipsun, 1933 - Page 64 ---------- Varsity Basketball Handicapped by practice fa-cilities and dearth of experi-enced players, a decided air of ypessimism clouded Sehome's crown as Coach Sam Carver opened the 1933 basketball sea-son. A decidedly inexperienced but hard-working squad was bolstered considerably by the return of Jim Rork and Clint McBeath, two-year lettermen and Al McNeil, a "one-striper" from the previous season. Before the Varsity season, the Viking mentor took a large squad into tow and developed a very promising Super-Varsity from which the Varsity timber was selected. Out of this group were developed George Nolte, "By" Moser, Walt Sorenson, Malcolm McBeath, and "Bun" Nolte C. McBeath Million Miles. Ferd Million, former McNeill Moser Everett sharpshooter, joined the squad late in the season. The opening of the season found the veteran Clint McBeath a cinch for one of the forward positions with Rork and "Dutch" McBeath scrapping for the pivot post. The younger McBeath also alternated with Nolte and Sorenson at forward and guard positions. Moser and McNeill divided their time in the back-court. Reversing the usual order of events, the Viking hoopsters hit what seemed to be championship form in their first three games. An unusually large band of Normalites mushed across town to the Whatcom gym to witness the first scalp seized by the Blue and White at the ex-pense of the Pacific Lutheran Gladiators, 40-24. Two nights later the confident Vikings journeyed to the lair of the Junior Collegians at Mount Vernon and surpassed all expectations with an 87-21 victory. With hopes riding dangerously high, the Normalites next entertained the Yakima Junior College five on the local court. Their machinery at its highest efficiency, they chalked up their third consecutive victory 51-29. Sixty-four ----------- Klipsun, 1933 - Page 65 ---------- Varsity Basketball In all three of these tussles the McBeath brothers, Moser, and Nolte were the big guns on offense and defense. From the opening game of the schedule "By" Moser proved himself the class of the defense in the back-court. Nolte came through in fine style and was a constant scoring threat throughout the later part of the season. From the Yakima game on-ward nothing seemed to click for the Normal five. A 50-38 defeat from the hefty Rangers from St. Martins started the Vikings on the toboggan. The game was anyone's battle until the final five minutes when the visitors pulled away. An over-night hop into the land of sage-brush and jack rabbits was too much for the Miles M. McBeath salt water lads from Belling- oet orenorksen ham. Consecutive defeats from Ellensburg, Cheney, and the Yakima Junior College across the hump completely disorganized the Blue and White tossers for the remainder of the season. Returning home, the local quintet played host to Cheney and Ellens-burg and again dropped games to these two Tri-Normal pennant con-tenders. The Vikings left immediately for their final road trip of the season and dropped the Pacific Lutheran team in Tacoma but were badly defeated in the final contest of the season with St. Martins. Although the win column was not impressive, Coach Carver devel-oped several players that will no doubt form the backbone of next year's squad. Moser, Nolte, "Dutch" McBeath, and Sorensen looked good throughout the season. They are a fighting quartet and will go far next season. The local squad scored 406 points against their opponents 423 during the season. Sixty-five ----------- Klipsun, 1933 - Page 66 ---------- Bagley, Fisher, Comfort, Griffen, Zwaschka, Hallowell Junior Varsity Basketball Furnishing the opposition for their big brothers on the Varsity during the practice sessions, the JayVees did their part on conditioning them for the big games. Besides doing their part as trainers, they played in the preliminary games for the Viking contests. Several of the Jay-Vee players also saw service in the Varsity games. This team acts as a testing ground for players, many of the Varsity having gradu-ated from this group. Coached by "Pop" Gunn they were entered in the city "B" League and came through a fairly successful season in third place. During past years the hilltop juniors have been a constant threat in this city league. Many years in the past they have walked off with top honors and have never finished lower than third. With this team, as with the Varsity, no chance has been given them to prove what they can do because of practice facilities. Perhaps in the future with a good maple court at the Normal, they can bring out the type of playing they are capable of. Siety-sip ----------- Klipsun, 1933 - Page 67 ---------- Schlilaty, Gable, Smith, Kean, Denton, Lewis Intramural Basketball Great interest was manifested by the intramural casaba heavers during the 1932-33 season. Speculation was rife during the first half with three teams, Viking Manor, Night Raiders and Relics, of almost equal strength, battling for division honors. The end of the first half found the strong Viking Manor quintet at the top of the heap, a position they maintained throughout the re-mainder of the schedule, although threatened seriously by both Co-op and the Relics. That the brand of basketball played in this league was of very high calibre can be shown by the fact that the Relics, second-place winners, split a two game series with the independent basketball champions of British Columbia, the Richmond Athletic Club. Sixty-seven ----------- Klipsun, 1933 - Page 68 ---------- Intra-Mural Baseball With the abandonment of varsity baseball at the Normal school, future Babe Ruths, Ty Cobbs and Walter Johnsons turned their thoughts from hard ball to the more popular soft ball league which, although it has been organized for some years, has not attracted the attention and interest that it has of late. Six teams were entered in the league immediately after the opening of spring quarter. Fisher's Fairies, Ten Pins, Morning Glories, Kings, Timber Wolves, and the Kitchen Krew, with their respective managers, captains, trainers and what-not, immediately hit the ball and settled down for the three months' season. Campus Day saw a picked group from the Intra-Mural league cross bats with the pick of the Faculty for the school championship. There can be no argument about the fact that the students walked off with the bacon. Don Bushell, faculty second sacker, carried off the laurels for the "profs" with three hits, three assists, and four beautiful stops of line-drives. "Pop Gunn" worked behind the bat during all the games and has submitted to the Klipsun, in his own characteristic way, his reactions to the league and the games as a whole. But don't take them seriously. Sixty-eight ----------- Klipsun, 1933 - Page 69 ---------- Intra-Mural Baseball Quote: "Six baseball teams are battling away for the champion-ship of something or other in the Intra-Mural Softball League with the Morning Glories and the Kings neck and neck for the lead. "The Glories expect to win and claim great skill put them on top, but the Kings say they will be in there fighting. All games have been keenly contested, nearly every point has been disputed (terrible umpiring), and all threats forgiven. So far every bad play has had its own alibi. "Every man has a chance to play regardless of ability, religion, or I. Q. Ambition is rated ahead of skill. Skill can do nothing with a rapidly spinning fly. Ambition can do very little. "Some of the worst players are Stearns, Berg, Rork, Hammett, Martin, Stoddard, Gaasland, Denton, Zwaschka, Finley, Nolte, Moser, Siler, Temple, Fisher and Shenenberger. Sulkosky is easily the worst player in the league. "Whatever else the Intra-Mural sport is doing, it allows everybody to have an hour to be seriously unserious. Players are given a chance to work off excess steam with a great show of battle.. All of them drag in peaceably with their bitter enemies after the game is over. So it makes no difference if the Kings or Morning Glories or some other team wins. Wins are not important in Intra-Mural sports." Sixty-nine ----------- Klipsun, 1933 - Page 70 ---------- Varsity Track With a nucleus of eight let-termen and a plentiful supply of non-letter winner partici-pants from last year, Coach Sam Carver has definitely set his sights for a Tri-Normal championship for the 1933 squad. The Vikings have already competed in two meets and came away with laurels that point for excellent show-ings in future meets. Lettermen returning for this season of activity included Schlilaty, Thomas, Brinkman, Lovegren, Gable, Flowers, Jones and VanOver. "Mercury" Schlilaty, who qualified for the Olympic Games trials last spring, has already surpassed all dash efforts in past races and will prove a threat to any and all aspirants for the cen-tury and furlong distances. A ten flat in the hundred, and twenty-two flat in the two-twenty are his best times this year with the season compara- tively young. Albee, Lovegren, Becken, DeL rncy, Pendleton Brinkman and Lovegren, dis- Brinkman, Schilaty, Berg, Flowers tance stars from past seasons, have definitely hit their stride with "Brink" stepping the two-mile in 10:17 with only six weeks' train-ing behind him. He has also shown up well in the mile. Thomas, a high stepper with two seasons' experience, has been giving Schlilaty's heels a terrific pounding this year and looks to be a sure point winner in future meets. Flowers, Tri-Normal pole vault champ, and Jones, letter-winner from last year, have already hit their top form of last season with two more meets to go. In the Relay Carnival at Tacoma early this season, Flowers cleared twelve feet, his record set at the Tri-Normal meet last year. VanOver, in the two meets held already this spring has surpassed his weight marks of last year. He is also showing up well in the javelin throw. Johnny Gable, Tri-Normal broad-jump champion, despite handicaps in his training schedule, should easily shatter his big jump of last year before this season is over. In the College of Puget Sound meet held here May 6, Gable, bucking a stiff wind, hopped twenty-one feet seven inches. Seventy ----------- Klipsun, 1933 - Page 71 ---------- Varsity Track Late in April the Vikings took a jaunt south to Tacoma and came off in second place in the Relay Carnival with Ellensburg and C. P. S. May 6 the Loggers came to Belling-ham and topped the Vikings in a close meet marked by good times and distances on the track and field. Meets yet to come at this writing are those with the University of Wash-ington Freshmen at Seattle and the Tri- Normal meet with Cheney and Ellensburg to be held in Bellingham this year. Besides the lettermen from last spring, Coach Carver is looking hopefully for future timber in the large squad of former participants and green material. Becken and Stiger, middle distance men from last year, are showing well with Stiger running two excellent miles already this spring. Kemphaus has tossed the spear several feet further than his best ef-forts of last year and has Williams, Stiger, McBeath, Gable, Thomas greatly strengthened a former- Temple, VanOver, Kemphaus ly very weak spot on the squad. Les Williams is the only hope the local squad has in the hurdles and has cut his time in both the lows and highs to guarantee himself a definite place on the squad. New men who have yet to show their mettle are DeLancy, 440; Pendleton, 440 and broad jump; McBeath, with a mark of five eight in the high jump, and broad jump; Temple, former C. P. S. weight star; Berg, javelin and discus; and Albee, a definite starter in the 880. The Tri-Normal meet was held in Bellingham this year with the ace track stars of Cheney and Ellensburg Normal schools participating. The big meet is held here every three years and was attractively intro-duced by the Tri-Normal booklet published by Normal students. Seventy-one ----------- Klipsun, 1933 - Page 72 ---------- Carr, Wahl, Fisher, Rork, Houghton Tennis and Golf With the Tri-Normal tennis championship in view, Coach Sam Carver's tennis squad stormed the courts as soon as weather permitted this spring and immediately set to work. Their first meet with the U. of W. Frosh gave the Seattle team a four to three victory with the Normal squad showing well. Rosenberg, University cham-pion, defeated Houghton, N., 6- 1, 6-3; Rork, N., defeated Turner, U., 6-p3, 6-4; Fisher, N., defeated Bloxam, U., 6-2, 8-6; Farber, U., defeated Carr, N., 2-6, 6-3, 6-2; Wahl, N., defeated Scott, U., 6-4, 4-6, 7-5. Rosenberg and Turner, U., defeated Houghton and Rork, N., 6-3, 6-3; Faber and Hill, U., defeated Carr and Wahl, N., 8-6, 6-3. In their next meet, that with the College of Puget Sound, the Vikings, lead by Captain Houghton, trounced the Loggers four to three in a bitterly contested meet, Rork, Fisher, Wahl, and Carr winning their matches. As things look at this writing, everything points to another Tri-Normal pennant for the racqueteers. Golf, the baby brother of the major sports, is fast finding its place on the Normal athletic calendar. Its inauguration a few years ago was hailed with tepid interest and a very small turn-out. Gradu- ally it has built itself up until it ranks high as a sport at the Normal and its teams carry a threat in the minor schools of the league. Lack of practice and playing facilities has handicapped the golfers a great deal. Lead by Captain Lahtonen, the Normal golfers opened their season this spring with a decisive victory over Whatcom High School, who have in the past years proved a stumbling block for the Viking divot-diggers. Later in the season the mashie artists dropped a hard match to the U. of W. Varsity. Lahtonen was the only man to win points for the Normal. Seventy-two ----------- Klipsun, 1933 - Page 73 ---------- George, Short, Horton, Jewell Resume of Girls' Sports and Advisors The undeniable success of after- school girls' sports hours is due in a large measure to the faculty members of our Women's Physical Edu-cation department: Miss Thelma Short, Miss Mildred Jewell, and Miss Margery Horton. Miss Lillian George, library catalogist, is a voluntary member. They have put unlimited energy and time on detailed planning and administration of these activities. Miss Short, who is head of the department, and tennis coach, although just a newcomer this year, has earned our sincere admiration for the helpful way in which she has grasped our situation and aims. We know we have gained much by her too short stay here. Miss George, almost solely by her own enthusiasm, has created a spirited interest in group hiking. Seven years ago she accompanied the first group, and still she is the weekly leader. Also contributing to the success of girls' sports is the firm backing received from the Women's Athletic Association. Last spring, to make the national sports movements for women more clear and alive to local members, two delegates were sent to the western division convention of the Athletic Conference of American Women. There, in comparing athletic programs, the statement was made that this institution offers a greater variety of sports activities than most of the larger universities and colleges of the west. With this reputation as an incentive, the W. A. A. feels there is no time for slacking and is continually striving for more and better sports, particularly those which bring about the development of individual skills. As a fitting climax to each quarter's athletic activity, a sports luncheon is given at Edens Hall. The fall luncheon carried out a "rain" motif in decoration, program, speeches and food; the winter carried out a "star" motif; and the spring, an "all sports" motif. At the luncheons the team letters are awarded and the honor team members made known. Seventy-three ----------- Klipsun, 1933 - Page 74 ---------- Sweater Girls To win a sweater a girl must have made eleven class first teams, and four all-star teams, and be accepted by the W. A. A. council with a majority vote, upon the basis of several high personal standards. Girls who were awarded their sweaters this spring were: Minnie Peterson, Donna Aisted, Inez Williams, and Lorraine Sheppard. Soccer "Jupe Pluvious" just had it in for the soccer enthusiasts last fall. Notwithstanding, the play-ers defied him and splashed courageously about, c o a t e d from head to foot in several inches of mud. The class series, which were full of exceedingly tense mo-ments, ended in a tie. Elizabeth Schuehle was soc-cer manager. Hockey Hockey is a sort of speeded up golf game with a goal to reach instead of a hole and a dozen more people trying at once to hit the "puck" over it. Pauline Chetwood had charge of the hockey tussles, in which the sophomores proved their superiority by a three to two game championship. Basketball Speedy action, quick think-ing, close competition, and good sportsmanship, all contri-buted by the players, were the chief causes for a successful basketball season. Edith Watkins, manager, signed up fifty potential stars. After several weeks of intra-mural games, class teams were chosen and the sophomores were victorious, winning two games, while the freshmen won one game. Seventy-four ----------- Klipsun, 1933 - Page 75 ---------- Volleyball There is nothing like volley-ball to raise spirits and create co-operation. These two prime requisites of the game are just bound to be present for fast and furious volley of the ball. Every Monday and Wednes-day of the fall quarter, volley-ball enthusiasts rallied in the big gym. Vivian Nelson was manager. Tap Dancing If the "tappers' " pleasing performance at the quarterly W. A. A. banquets is any cri-terion for judgment, the par-ticipants certainly worked up some concentrated and peppy turnouts. Tap dancing, a fall activity which was managed by Grace Moller, is always one of the most popular and "enlight-ening" women's sports offered. Speedball Speedball, managed by Mayme MacIntosh, caused all sorts of healthy, hearty, and agonized shrieks to float, in the mild spring air, from Waldo field to the campus and down High street. This game, which is a combination of soccer and basketball, was played by ap-proximately twenty-five girls. Serve-us Ball As the twenty-five players under the direction of Francis Harris, discovered, serve-us ball can be rollicking fun. To keep the huge, khaki-covered ball aloft requires almost ex-pert contortionistic qualities and a watchfulness for the un-expected to happen. Seventy-five ----------- Klipsun, 1933 - Page 76 ---------- Action Abandoning class room and hall decorum, for a short, valu-able bit of time, to expend youthful excess energy on Waldo field is something which is quite incapable of replace-ment by any other school ac-tivity. W. A. A. girls get health, happiness and friend-ship out of it. Tennis Tennis was well and enthusi-astically supported. , Fifteen players, under the direction of Julia Christiansen, appeared every Tuesday and Thursday afternoon of the first part of the season, on the courts, for steady practice. Later a tourna-ment was organized and the girls played their matches at their own convenience. The finals were played on Field Day. Archery Hitting the "little bull's eye" is much harder to do than to say. It is even hard, but it's thrilling to hit an outside circle, and any archer is considered "not bad" if her arrow drops within five feet of the target. Marie de Gallier, champion archer, patiently, all spring, helped her twenty-five charges through their alternate hope and despair. Badminton Badminton, managed by Marydel Conrad, is an unusu-ally active indoor sport, calling for lively manipulation of the little long- handled racket, with which one "wams" the shuttle-cock over the net. The shuttle-cock is very light and its suc-cessful placement can be con-trolled only by experts. These proved to be Inez Williams and Bernice Marsolais. Seventy-six ----------- Klipsun, 1933 - Page 77 ---------- Golf Golf was not conducted on the same basis as the other sports. There were no volun-tary turnouts nor any sort of competition. A regular elective class was conducted at the Lakeway Golf Course by Mr. Repos, the golf "pro," there. Next year, if this year's clam-orings are to be quieted, the P. E. department will sponsor a tournament. Baseball The whole spirit of this spring's baseball can be ex- pressed in this phrase, "'Come on, let's have some hard play, 'cause we've all got to get stiffened up to- night!" Each of the twenty-eight players, not excluding manager Ethel Bromley, slugged, caught, threw, and ran, at every prac-tice with all her might and main. Swimming Down at the Y. W. C. A. swimming pool, every Tuesday and Thursday afternoons after school, throughout the whole year, approximately fifteen am-phibious- natured girls some-times concentrated on improv-ing their already good swim-ming and diving form and sometimes splashed and kicked around just for pure enjoyment. Rosanne Young was in charge. Hiking Particularly in this locality is hiking a satisfaction. There are inspiring marine trails, fragrant wood paths, lakes to breakfast by, and snowy moun-tains to explore. Every Saturday, the girls who had signed the hikers' notice on the bulletin board, during the week, gathered at the entrance, led by Louisa Morrissey and Miss George.

It is the hope of every member of the staff that on as many of its pages as possible, every reader will find something that applies to him. There have been more than enough good times to go around this year, and the members of the staff feel that through their efforts the spirit of those times, if not the actual record of their occurence, has been included in the annual. The members of the staff have had much work to do this year. They have also had their share of the happiness. Winchell's understudies, then old hands at the game.

We have been the recorders of an epoch. And what an epic! From the funny things that happened on campus day to the most austere member of the faculty, we have included everything of interest to the students. Our job has brought more to us in this way-co-operation, in working with people we did not know before, doing what pleases the group-than merely the satisfaction of having completed it successfully. The contacts and the pleasant experiences we have had have more than justified the efforts we have expended. This is what we hope the Klipsun will bring to you this year, a new aspect of the work you have been doing in the past year, a knowledge that it is something more than "school."

Northwest Viking No one who has been a member of the Viking staff can think of the "office" without entertaining happy memories of the "gang." Stu-dents from all groups, with widely divergent ideas and opinions come together there to unite in a spirit of sincere effort relieved by jovial good-fellowship and mutual confidence. Ambition unfolds itself there. Talents are revealed. Weaknesses are found and overcome. At the print shop every Thursday night from four until six the more playful side of journalistically-minded students of the school is revealed. Schoolwork, for the time, is forgotten. Laughing, talking, joking, working, the "Viking Gang" is at its best. At the arrival of the coffee and doughnuts all thought of journalism melts away faster than the food. The enormous appetites of otherwise harried reporters are unleashed. It's a symposium of the wits-and half- wits!

It has been the policy of the school paper to attempt to co-ordinate student activities and activities designed to achieve the funda-mental ideals of education and the specific ideals of our school. It has kept students posted on coming events and offered constructive, criticism. Last fall, at Homecoming, under the editorship of Jimmy Stoddard, the Viking came out in a blaze of blue and white at the serpentine parade previous to the big celebration. A "Welcome Grads" page donated by Bellingham merchants was conceived and admirably exe-cuted by the business manager for the fall quarter, Roger Chapman. At the beginning of the winter quarter, Pat Allan took the edi-torial helm just in time to superintendent publication of that news-paper extraordinary, which was distributed by loud-voiced little newsies at the play "Beggar on Horseback." This extravaganza matched ad-mirably the satirical note of the play. Allan continued as editor dur-ing the spring quarter.

Fisher Orchestra and Band The Normal school symphony orchestra, under the direction of John Roy Williams, was conducted through the whole school year. It met every Tuesday evening in the auditorium and one credit was given for membership. It was composed, however, not only of Normal school students, but of musicians from town, and the local high schools. In the fall quarter the orchestra played at the Drama Club play and at one or two other functions. In the winter quarter, a full symphony program was given at the last assembly of the quarter. Although the program ran over the allotted hour, the orchestra was given two encores. As an intermission number in the program, Ransford Wise played a clarinet solo, accompanied by Christine Albers, the pianist of the orchestra. Likewise a symphony concert was given at an assem-bly during the spring quarter. At this appearance, the numbers were as well, if not better received than at their first appearance. In the fall quarter, a pep band, including fifteen or twenty stu- dents, was organized with Ransford Wise as leader. They played at several assemblies, and at all the football games. At the home-coming game, especially, the pep band was one of the main features. A German brass band, composed of the members of Mr. Luster-man's instrument playing class, was organized in the spring quarter. The class met every Monday and Thursday at three o'clock. For the W Club Vodvil, the members of the class gave several numbers. They appeared in comic costumes and were very well received. At the Campus day assembly the next day, they played a number of pieces which put everyone in the right spirit for the day.

Fisher, Wise Childs, Slusher, Shenenberger, Anson Martin, Van Doren, Robinson, Campbell Lowe, Wilkinson, Forstrom, F. Fisher Mr. Lusterman, Hartley, Bernet, McFarland Women's and Men's Choruses Under the direction of Donald Bushell, of the Music Department, the Women's Chorus, a group of twenty women of the school, met during the spring quarter every Monday and Wednesday at three o'clock. The students did not give any performance as their aim was self development and pleasure. During the quarter, under the guid-ance of Mr. Bushell, the members of the chorus became acquainted with a better type of music than they would have otherwise. Margit Ottem and Mary Benson were the accompanists. Upon the organization of the women's chorus, several of the men of the school felt that there was a place for a male chorus in the curriculum. Acting upon the suggestion made by them, the male chorus was formed. It met every Monday and Thursday from four until five o'clock during the spring quarter. Paul Lusterman was the director, and Kenneth Bernet was the accompanist. The chorus was rather handicapped throughout the quarter by the fact that many members had to play in intramural baseball games at the time the practices were held. This time was chosen because there was no other class period open, as the chorus was formed after the beginning of the quarter. The chorus' initial appearance was made at the W club vodvil, May 8. They sang three numbers, and were very well received. The personnel of the chorus includes twenty-six members. This is the first time in several years that Normal has had a male chorus. The enthusiasm that has been shown this year on the part of the mem-bers, and the splendid work done by them, should insure it a permanent place in the curriculum of the school. Eighty-five ----------- Klipsun, 1933 - Page 86 ---------- Publications The Normal policies and activities are represented to the outsiders of the community by the publications issued each year. These include the Blue book, Self-starter, Tri-normal track booklet, student directory, Northwest Viking, and the Klipsun. At the beginning of the fall quarter the Blue book, a valuable mine of information for students, is published and distributed. It con-tains everything from the president's message to the tennis court rules, and enables entering students to become familiar with the school in a short time. The directory is an invaluable aid to everyone engaged in work or in play, because it contains the name, home, residence address, and phone number of every student and faculty member of the school. Di-rectories are available without charge, and are distributed through the Co-op. The Self-starter is an all-encompassing little blue book that no Freshman girl should be without. Much important information, includ-ing tentative expense lists and clothing guides, are contained therein. The book is published by the Women's League, in accordance with Standards Committee regulations. The Tri-normal track booklet is an attractive little souvenir pro-gram with a clever cover design. Included in it are President Fisher's message, a prediction of the final score, pictures of the coaches, the tennis and track teams from the three schools, and a score sheet.

To have each club an active club, and to stimulate interest in club life is the foundation upon which it works. Two representatives are elected by each club to form the member-ship of the nominating convention. In addition to this, each club dele-gates one member to act in its interests at the council meetings. By these means, direct contacts are maintained between the clubs, and uni-form standards are upheld.

To help the girls get acquainted with each other, the custom of a weekly tea, held in the Women's League room, has been pleasantly established.

The first part of fall quarter, the men sponsored a reception in the Blue Room of Edens Hall, at which the chance was given for students to know each other better, as well as to meet the men of the faculty.

Intramural games are conducted in each sport, and class teams are chosen from them. An all-star team is selected from the girls who displayed the best sportsmanship, skill and accuracy during the entire season. They render many distinct services to the school and co-operate with the men's athletic association whenever their services are needed.

"Firesides," or weekly gatherings at which bridge or any other game preferred might be played were held, and a series of teas was sponsored, both for their own group, and other mem-bers of the school.

Each house elects its own officers, and carries out its own social activities. It is customary for the Women's League to present a banner of achievement for the best record made in scholarship and a banner for the best record maintained in accomplishment. This keeps the organized houses competing with each other to uphold the best standards. Competition is also carried out in the organized men's houses about the campus. Athletic lines are followed and each winter and spring will find basketball and baseball teams entered in the school league by the houses. Outstanding are Fire Hall, Ananias Club, White House, Viking Manor, and Mullins Hall. Minter, Mackie, VonHoene, Olson, Campbell, Shaffer, Sayer, Bolshannin, Smith, Birchman, Young, G.

Martinez Sierra struck a new note in dramatic production at the school, first, because it had two acts, breaking the three-act comedy tradition of the Ameri-can stage; second, because of its almost perfect adaptation to Normal school production in having nine women and only three men in the cast. The play was produced on May 25, 26, 1932.

The only change it was necessary for him to make in the production was the substitution of Louise Law-rence for Gertrude Hancamp as Aunt Agatha Stanhope.

One Hundred Five ----------- Klipsun, 1933 - Page 106 ---------- Musical Artists Course Offering the very finest in cultural entertainment, the Musical Artists' course brought three outstanding artists to Bellingham during the 1932-33 season. This year's series is the seventeenth annual course to be offered by the Normal school, in collaboration with the Belling-ham Women's Music club. The Hall Johnson Singers Choir opened the series on December 2, when they presented their negro songs at the First Christian Church. Bringing with them all the melody and feeling of the plantation singers, the negroes, most of whose grandparents were born in slavery, put their very souls into their songs. Although the spirituals were well and enthusiastically received, it was the unique arrangements of "St. Louis Blues," and "St. James Infirmary Blues," which drew the great-est applause. On January 26, Guy Maier, famous American pianist, was presented in recital in the Normal auditorium. While the recital offered Mr. Maier ample opportunity to exhibit his skill it was unique since it was a musical travelogue. With his piano as a companion, Mr. Maier took his audience with him on a musical tour of foreign countries. In doing this he chose selections which, while of a classical nature, illustrated something of the color and characteristics of the different countries. The third and last of this distinguished trio was Joseph Szegeti, famed Hungarian violin virtuoso. Displaying a technique and mastery seldom afforded Bellingham residents, Mr. Szegeti presented a program of four group numbers. The third of these groups was especially inter-esting, since it was the "Stempenyu Suite," dedicated to Mr. Szegeti by its composer. In addition to his great talent, Mr. Szegeti presented a particularly fascinating figure, having recently received a decoration from the Hungarian government for his musical work. The Musical Artists' course definitely fills a need that can be sup-plied by nothing else. In addition to giving a good cultural background and increased appreciation of fine music, the students have the oppor-tunity of hearing present-day celebrities whom they otherwise would miss. One Hundred Six ----------- Klipsun, 1933 - Page 107 ---------- Assembly Programs The Normal school has come to be known for the variety and worth of the assemblies which it presents to the students and the citizens of Bellingham. Each year the programs bring the finest talent available, and this year was no exception. The first assembly of the fall quarter brought the eminent writer and corresponent, Upton Close, who talked on the subject, "Behind the News in China." Winter quarter, Dr. Inazo Nitobe, Japanese consul and scholar, discussed Sino-Japanese relations. Another distinguished foreign speaker was Lord Ronald Gorrell, foremost present day literary authority from England. During the spring quarter, the assembly was privileged to hear Lincoln Steffens, world famous author and lecturer; Prince Jehan Warliker of India, who, having been educated in Eng-land, was able to interpret his native land to Americans through the eyes of an occidental; and William "Pussyfoot" Johnson, who spoke on his favorite subject, "Prohibition." During the year, Mr. Hoppe's play production classes gave three displays of home talent: "Here Comes the Bride" directed by Elsie O'Donnell, "Silly Sam," by Katherine Bowden, and "An Eye For An Eye," with Louise Schulz the director. One of America's foremost groups of colored singers, the Utica Jubilee singers, appeared in a program of spirituals and popular ballads which found instant favor with the audience. Other unusual programs were given by Mme. Gray-Lhevinne and her son Laddie Boy, the "boy Mozart"; Dorothy Baker, coloratura soprano; Louisa Espinel, whose dance recital was entitled "Little Pictures of Spain"; and "Les Voyageurs," a mixed quartet of madrigal singers from Vancouver. Several fine readings of modern plays have been given during the season. The plays reviewed were "Of Thee I Sing," "Elizabeth the Queen," and "Another Language." Other assembly attractions presented this year were Ernest Cald-well, Vancouver baritone; Dr. Christine Galitzi, a Roumanian woman teaching at Scripps College, California; Oselio Ivarson's piano recital; a talk on the French younger generation, by Maurice Sachs; and a violin concert by Emily Bently Dow, formerly a student here. One Hundred Seven ----------- Klipsun, 1933 - Page 108 ---------- CHAIRMEN OF THE INFORMALS' Hogan, Lensrud Schulz, Brinkman, Bennerstrom Altose, Waters, Jecklin, Kelly Informals Edens Hall turned itself into an enchanted northland for the fall informal with a big snow man and a snow fort presiding in the center of the room. White suede programs were in the shape of snowballs. Helen Jecklin and Dorothy Kelley carried out plans for the dance. The Blue Room was transformed into a gay casino with an old fashioned bar for the winter informal. Appropriate programs were little playing cards. Mayme MacIntosh and Lorinda Ward successfully handled this dance. The fall "W" club informal, held at the Chuckanut Shell, was a "football" idea with pennant decorations and blue suede programs. Plans for the dance were in charge of Norvin Van Over. During the winter quarter, the Men's Club sponsored a dance at the Shell. Blue and white "W" programs guided the couples, while Lund-berg's "town-car" hustled many a couple to and from the dance. Fall quarter found the Crystal Ballroom decked with autumn leaves for the Women's League "Hallowe'en" hop with fat orange pumpkins and black cats for programs. Louise Schulz was chairman of the dance. Bellingham's proverbial weather man helped the winter "rain" dance out adequately. A be-slickered orchestra perched in the corner of the Bellingham Hotel ball-room, while punch was served from a rain-barrel. The programs were in the form of tiny black umbrellas with yellow cellophane handles. Suzanne Waters steered this informal to success. One Hundred Eight ----------- Klipsun, 1933 - Page 109 ---------- The College Bull Session "W" Club Smokers One of the highlights of the winter and spring quarters was the revival of the "Smokeless Smoker," inaugurated by the "W" club many years ago. A large crowd filled the gym for the first of the series of brawls and contributed their share of boos and Bronx cheers to the efforts of the muscle-bound participants. Contestants attempted to dethrone the heavyweight, light- heavy, and middleweight champions, much to the delight of the audience. The main bout of the evening was the blind-fold one glove boxing event which kept the crowd in spasms with the wild swings and misplaced punches of the blinded boxers. The second of the series was held on the auditorium stage before a capacity crowd. The muscular display opened with a two-round comedy skit. Boxing and wrestling championships were again at stake with "Pop" Gunn acting as referee. Enjoyable musical numbers by the Men's Chorus and the German Brass Band were then presented, followed by a skit, "Palooka Polaka" and a one-act play, "The College Bull Session" which offered dirt, subtle dirt as its main objective to the satisfaction of some and the embarrassment of others. One Hundred Nine ----------- Klipsun, 1933 - Page 110 ---------- Clinton Gross Homecoming Homecoming hilarities started with a proverbial boom on Friday, November 18, at the annual home-coming assembly. The program was furnished by local talent, which included Thue and Priem, Johnny Lensrud, Jim Campbell, and Dick Albert. The serpentine began at six-thirty, when several hundred wild Normal students swooped down on the business section of the city and began terrorizing the inhabi-tants. The Frosh bonfire on Waldo Field followed the serpen-tine, at which time Captain Sul-kosky lighted the pyre, the ma-terials of which had been so pain-stakingly collected by the Frosh. Then the crowd gathered at the big gym for rec hour. On Saturday, at twelve o'clock noon, the alumni banquet was held at Edens Hall. Early in the afternoon the big game, at which the Cheney Savages swore to get some Viking scalps, began, and what a battle! Saturday night the armory presented a festive scene, with a mob of students and grads dancing and making merry to the strains of Jack Burn's music. One Hundred Ten Campus Day At eight o'clock in the morn-ing (Pacific standard time) in-dustrious looking students, clad in more or less proletarian garb, began to arrive on the scene. Suddenly a fanfare of trumpets announced Prexy's arrival, and he strode onto the stage with a Mussolini-like gesture. This early assembly which started the festivities, was fol-lowed by four hours of hard labor, during which time campus, courts, Sehome hill, and Normalstad were improved in appearance. At one o'clock a jazz extravaganza was presented in assembly. Then the students adjourned to Waldo Field, where a slight variation of the usual field meet took place. Sack, three- legged, and backward races, a tug of war and other ath-letic freaks were put on. Baseball games between students and fac-ulty members were huge suc-cesses. The grand climax of the day was the water fight, wherein the Finley and Lewis factions, with the aid of fire department impedimenta, battled to a wet finish. Emlyn Jones ----------- Klipsun, 1933 - Page 111 ---------- Doris McElmon Doris McElmon, winner of the freshman Scholarship trophy and valedictorian of her class in high school, was chosen as Normal's most "Representative Girl" this spring. As "Representative" the school is proud of Doris, for in many fields she is not only repre-sentative but superlative. Besides her scholastic accomplishments, she has been active in the Val-kyrie club, and held the presi-dency of the Thespians for two quarters. Doris has been described as "one of those rare individuals who have a combination of brains and beauty." She has charm and poise and grace. She is a good sport, plays a fine game of tennis, swims excellently, and dances-well, just ask the boys. The school stands in danger of losing Doris next fall when she plans to go elsewhere to complete her education. We are sorry to have her go, though we know she will "represent" us in a way in which we should wish to be. We shall not soon forget her- Doris McElmon. Vernon Leatha Blue eyed, golden haired, broad-ly smiling Vernie Leatha was se-lected by ninety per cent of the students as their "Most Repre-sentative Man." And no wonder! Politically, in his day, Vernie all but ran the school, thus earning the title of the "school's best little politician." He was elected vice-president of his class his first year here. The next year he moved up a step and became president of his class, and at the same time was four quarter repreesntative on the board of control. At the expira-tion of his term he was chosen secretary to that body. Last fall he became yell duke and later yell-king. In the program of every play given in the last few years, and near the top of the cast appears the name "Vernon R. Leatha." Some of these plays which he was in were: Camille in Roaring Camp, Liliom, Alison's House, and Beggar on Horseback. Through his experience gained in these plays, he is able to give you quite a treat with his impersona-tion of "Little Nell."
