Dickensonia Hallowe'en Assemblies \ By Pat Allan. l | l l " • • ii ii •• in n •• n. m— An editorial in the University of Washington Daily of Friday, Oct. 31, leaves us under the impression that the University is drawn into politics whether it desires to be so or not, and on these grounds has something quite definite to say about the candidates in the coming election. Evidently the University is such a large institution that it can well be a n egg for which to fight, while t h e ' poor teachers and those who are training to be teachers must struggle into politics all by themselves. W.S.N.S, And are the teachers making a bid for recognition by the politicians! Half the newspapers in the state print cartoons showing the blind teacher • leading the innocent public to the "Bottomless Pit" and t he other half of the organs illustrate the. "Noble educator," with her torch and pen, refusing to let sordid "Business" leave the innocent child in ignorance. - -——W.N.S.N. Headlines taken from the Washington State Evergreen: "Montana Grizzlies Rated. Under-Dog, Says Dope Sheet." Two columns to t he right the football game was listed as- the big feature of the State College "Dad's Day." It seems that the wise committee for "Dad's Day" did^not neglect to pick a sure win for the college when they chose the date. W.S.N.S. I don't want to change the subject or anything, but the other day I happened to see a calling card on the sidewalk. Being human after a fashion, therefore more curious than is good for me, I picked it up to read the name. Shades of Dickens! "Mrs. Quincy Adonis Hegley-Fitchetbottom . . . !" ' W.S.N.S. Let's all bend our heads in silent prayer at 7:30 tonight for the football team in faraway Tacoma. "They're going to win! ——W.S.N.S.— How much more pleasant would the 11 o'clock hours on Tuesday arid Friday be if all the assemblies were interesting enough to the students to call forth the enthusiasm and approval that the Utica Jubilee singers did last Tuesday. An assembly program should be the highest talent possible which would appeal to a large majority of^ the students. W.S.N.S.- - A bunch of t h e boys blocked the "Royal Road to Romance" on All Hallow's EVe, imprisoning several Mppy pairs on the stony sides of Sehome. - That was the one good trick of t he evening, the one trick to be commended for its good taste and excellence of execution. (I can think of a ,lot of other excellent executions,- too). Hit of Summer Quarter Will Be Produced by . Drama Club with Practically Original Cast. . ' lt; MR, HOPPE WELL CARRY LEAD With next week's presentation of "Alison's House" another chapter will be written in the history of dramatics in this school. It marks the first time that the Drama club has ever seen fit to, produce the same play two successive quarters. The play will be given one night only this quarter. Thursday, Nov. 10, is the date set, Nov. 11 having been cancelled due to Armistice diy recess. The club's in-- terpretation of this Pulitzer p r i z e - winner during the summer quart e r was heralded as one of the most successful pieces of work ever turned out here. Because MR. HOPPE so few of the students in attendance now saw the show this summer it was considered altogether fitting that it be presented again by (with three exceptions) the same cast who so adroitly personified the characters of Susan Glaspell's gripping sketch in the previous production. "Alison's House" brings Mr. Hoppe to the Normal's stage again in his first characterization since "The Pigeon" in the summer of 1930. In "Alison's House" he will appear in the part of Father Stanhope, a man whose very life is bound to family sentiment and pride. The story centers around the family of Alison Stanhope, revered poetess of t h e nineteenth century, and how her vivid personality, eighteen years after her d e a t h , strangely shapes Vernon Leatha' their lives. The cast is as follows: Father Stanhope, Alison's brother, Mr. Hoppe; Elsa, Stanhope's daughr ter, Dorothy Fiala; Eben, Stanhope's i |M us—na—m Fiala and Wrigfit Plajr Lead Roles * . — i ill-—tin—»I|I DOROTHY FIALA (Continued on Page Two) Play to be Read I n next Tuesday's assembly, Mrs. Sarah Traiix Albert, of Seattle, will read one of, Sherwood Anderson's plays entitled "Elizabeth the Queen" This play is a historic one, based on the reign of Queen Elizabeth. Mrs. Albert, under the name of Sarah Truax made herself well known while she. was on the stage, and while in t h a t career she displayed great acting ability. She has given up the stage now and has become prominent in reading plays throughout this state. Freshman to Build Largest Bonfire In History of Normal Homecoming In a n effort to arouse interest among the frosh men concerning the, annual ^homecoming, two articles have: been submitted t o t he Viking inratieffort to stimulate this feeling. ^ ..':Vv/^7; "The upper classes of thev school :^udge us by our-vwc(x^.in''pur';:.bon-. fire at Homecoming, which Is our V*3 t o cohstrro day: j'The alumni will ^ ^ h e r e e ^ e r to J isee what success we have had in pur andCsupport ' t h e hlstoty of t h e school'^--Mickey The big event in tne eyes of t he freshmen during homecoming week is the bonfire that,, according, to tradition, is built and guarded for days before the big blaze.

Mickey Clarke will have charge of the bonfire on Waldo field on Friday night, November 18. Fuel for the affair is showing up on various parts of the campus. Call it parade or serpentine, Art Pearson and Vernon Leatha ' will make it the talk of the twon. , Alumni Luncheon Saturday Doris McElmon and Lew Lovegren are planning the alumni luncheon. This will be held Saturday noon, November 19 at Edens Hall. Both alumni and students will attednthis affair. " Cheney Team Strong The Ellensberg Wildcats were held to a tie by the Cheney Savages last week. When the whistle blows Saturday afternoon, November 19, the Savages will probably outweight the locals twenty pounds to a man. A determined Viking team is necessary to hold back the invaders from the other side of the Cascades. The game is scheduled to start at 2:15 p. m. Tickets for the game will be on sale at school and downtown for those who do not have student activity tickets. Students will be admitted for 25 cents and adult tickets are 50 cents each. Homecoming Hop a t Armory The homecoming hop will be held at the Armory Saturday night at 8:30 p. m. Jack Burn's orchestra will play. This affair is being handled by John Lensrud and J im Campbell. All organized houses will be eligible for the decoration contest. Ken Elder announces that a banner will be first prize and a second prize to be announced later. ; -r O — ' DRAMA OFFERED Students Present One-Act Play for Today's Assembly •M^M^i0^:- I n this mornings Assembly* the literary interpretation class, under the direction of Mr. Hoppe, entertained with a play / entitled' ^'The ^liant'febyGeorgeMiddleton, This play has been one of t h e most popu- ] ^ play^Yever - presented by small th^eat^^uSi"conges/ Besides hav- ;-^|6ee^;jglVen many.

This is a part of the series of straw elections held in nearly fifty colleges throughout the United States. Favor for Hoover is shown from Washington State, University of Washington, University of Southern California and University of California. The University of Texas, oh the other hand, shows a large majority for Roosevelt as do" the Universities of Texas and South Carolina. Columbia and New York universities indicate a strong preference for Norman Thomas. On the total number of votes cast the division is as follows: Hoover, 35,670; Roosevelt, 21,- 526; Thomas, 12,235; Foster, 715. A straw vote, while not carrying much weight, should be taken seriously enough to show the political inclination of the student body . Appreciation Shown Normal Broadcast Over Station KVOS Although few Normal school students listened in on the radio program released over KVOS last Friday night, the response concerning it from the town was very satisfactory. A definite time, 9:30-10:00 p. m., every Friday, has been allotted for the school broadcast. The next offering will be under the auspices of Mr. Harold B. Smith, head of t he Music department. Daniel Botts, violinist; Ransford Wise, clarinetist; and Christine Albers, pianist, will be heard. . Robert Becken, tenor, will sing several numbers. A special Armistice day program will be broadcast, the speaker to be announced later. Injuries and Illness Keeps Five Students From Usual Classes Students obliged to miss school this week on account of injuries received are: Virginia De Priest, suffering from an* injured knee; Harold McGrath of Nooksack and Leslie Williams. Williams received a fractured bone in his hand from football. Louise Contento arid Wilburn Whipple have been absent during the past week, due to illness.

N ORMAL SCHOOL BAND OT A DREAM Pleasing indeed is the news that Harold B. Smith will devote much of his time and energy this fall to to developing a school band. An all-school organization of this type is something for which the students have clamored for many years. Plans have been formulated before but lark of leadership dampened any success that such a club might have attained. In previous years it has been necessary to ask the services of downtown fraternal groups when the Normal school has wanted band music. Our Homecoming would be even more enjoyable with the realization that O U R band was playing at the game or during the serpentine march. Pranks must be considered as such on Hallowe'en. Thejbig, husky football player with the mighty voice, takes the cake by turning out all the lights in the main reading room of the library at 9 o'clock. "I do riot know beneath.what skies '• / Nor on what seas shall be t hy fate— "I do not know beneath what skies I only know it shall be high; I only know it shall be great." Let the world be ignorant, let friends despair, or neighbors scoff—one will believe. Her blind devotion, her unselfish faith, can see t h a t spark within her boy that will send him beyond the jabbing elbows of the crowd. Maybe it's h is mother, it may be a childhood chum, possibly his sweetheart—but always one will believe, one will know he cannot fail. Reward? Pagan' thought! So great the sacrifice and so deep the love that all is wormwood unless he live in worthy manliness and be crowned with hard-earned glory. He himself may not know whither his barque is headed, but holding its bow into the seas, he determines he will not drift. He dares not show how great is his love for her who gives him courage, believing that only in the realization of his hopes and t h e successful consumatibn of her dreams can he prove that his love, too, is not a selfish thing, nor his words a hollow voice. « He can ask for only that of which he has proved himself worthy. But should he fail—what then? What if he set his goal too far beyond his grasp, and all his striving, heart and soul, is unequal to the task? Can he face those who love him? There lies tragedy—there is heart break. Some must fail—what is their answer to be? School INA- H. KIRKMAN ;.')-• {, T OO MANY LATE; OO MUCH NOISE After attending the Utica Singer's assembly this week, we were more than ordinarily, impressed with the fact that late-arrivals indeed display discourtesy both to the artists featured in the programs and to those students who have arrived early in an attempt to get something from whatever talent may be presented. The Utica Singers, bringing with them as fine a piece of entertainment as the students have attended during the past season, must have been rather disappointed to have their program rudely interrupted by a few tardy spectators. Regulations must be inaugurated to cure this evil; if not, both artist and. early spectators will be robbed of their just rights during the hour. The Viking staff extends its sympathy to Darrow Gwinnup, who recently lost his mother. TRAINING SCHOOL TAKES UP ORDER Much Interest Shown in the Three Meetings Past "Come to Order" is not only the title of a book, so far as the Officer's Training School is concerned, but is also an actual practice. • The School was organized to give the officers of the various organizations an opportunity for practicing Parliamentary Law according to the theory given in the book, "Come to Order." It is under the jurisdiction of the Interclub Council and is headed by Miss Emma Erickson and Miss Nora B. Cummins. Officers are elected* roll is called, minutes are read, and all other business common to clubs is transacted in each meeting, giving the members ample opportunity to t ry each office. Much interest has been shown in the three meetings that have been held and t he clubs are urged to send all their officers regularly. — - o— Women's Organized Intramural Sports Display Fine Games Intramural games in women's volleyball, soccer, and hockey are getting well under way, with teams organized and first games played. Competition is already proving keen between the various teams. Volleyball contestants have been divided into three different teams with teams 1 and 2 playing the first game on last Tuesday afternoon. Team 1 emerged from the peppy battle an easy victor over,team 2.

Reed of this city, to Mr. Leslie M. Miller, of Coupville, Washington. Mrs. Miller was a graduate of the Fairhaven high school and the Bellingham Normal. She has been teaching in the Coupeville schools during the past year. First steps are usually excitirig in a home—occasionally so in school. On Wednesday the third grade embarked with much enthusiasm, and no little argiiment, on i ts map-making career. The result was a plat of Bellingham's water supply sources, oriented from the third grade room. The map, a united class project, is on a background of natural-toned tagboard. High street, with the intersecting streets that lead toward the Sehome Hill reservoir, is shown by pasting strips of gray; a n irregular expanse of green is the Normal campus. Lake Whatcom and Lake Padden appear in blue paper, with due regard to size, to direction, and to distance from, the campus. This map is a natural evolution from a field trip of some days ago. While on Sehome hill alert eyes picked out t h e reservoir which supplies Sehome hill district, and immediately demands arose as to the what, the where, and .how, and why. Answers to these questions have instituted a study of the general importance of water supply for power, pleasure, and navigation. A specific study of Bellingham's water system does not sound"* so comprehensive, butf in actuality the- study of it in the training school has embraced scientific points probably not yet a thoroughly digested part of t h e . geographical knowledge of numerous adult students near by. Use of the compass which was supplied by one of the children soon took care of disagreements over "pointing north." A magnetic needle became a part of the schoolroom furnishings after it was observed that a compass placed on the campus did not agree precisely with the Guide Meridian highway seen across town. A trip to the Maple street pumping station was inaugurated by t he class, eager to solve the problem of defeating gravity. . At present this map is tacked diagonally across the corner of the classroom which is true north. It doesn't seem "just right" to the children in any other position, but here the large "N" at its top is exactly where i t "ought to be." PRESTON A.

From their first appearance to the final chord of their last encore, the singers exhibited perfect voice harmony and unique originality. They announced their own program, which was made up of Negro spirituals, old Southern favorites, a reading, two ukelele selections, several popular numbers and humorous Negro songs. All of these they sang, with the exception of the popular arrangement of Goin' Home, without accompaniment. The particularly delightful thing about these five Jubilee Singers was the complete abandon and naivete with which each individual singer interpreted the various selections. Their personnel consists of Charles Williams, first tenor; M. H. Cole, second tenor; Clarence Ratcliffe, alternate tenor and reader; S. M. Huggs, baritone; W. G. Culver, bass, Mrs. Norman Cole, soprano and accompanist. Lensrud Elected; Council Secretary Conflicts Settled Johnny Lensrud was elected correspondence -secretary of the Inter- Club Council at a meeting of that body held Wednesday, Nov. 3, for the purpose of settling some conflicts in club programs. As a result of action taken by the Council, the Drama and Social Science clubs will have to arrange new dates for their meeings. The idea of having two assembly periods a month given over to the Officers' Training school was disccussed and passed upon. If this can be arranged, some members of the school will have charge of these two assemblies. It was moved that the chairman appoint a committee to frame a Council constitution. Members of this committee are Gordon Hamb-ley, Ruth Neal, and Lois Shaffer The organization of a new club, the Iskra club, in which Russian will be spoken, was discussed. The idea was approved and this new club will have its meetings on the second and fourth Thursdays of each month. N. E.

Ef INCaHM.S^ P?^?P#^r:Sr^!#*^ ; In t he year 1907, the head man of the Blame education system gave up his position to join the young Normal school a t Bellihgham. And then 15 years ago, this place got another break when the school superintendent of Thurston county laid down his duties and embarked -for. our own fair city. Gradually,/these., men have worked into the scheme of the institution until they have become a tradition. Old students associate them with the highest and the finest ideals that this school has offered them. And what's more, these gentlemen are athletically-minded—and how! . "^ I t just wouldn't seem natural to go to a football game without seeing our kindly math prof moving up and down the sidelines, eyes on the watch, with his hand reaching in his coat pocket for the gun... And who can imagine a Viking track meet without our genial psych prof standing a t the finish tape, picking them out?.. These two know sports from away back and either one of them can tell you who was Normal's sub right, and eleven years ago. Yessir, folks—it's Bond and Kibbe, the grand old men of Bellingham athletics. o—o Football is packed full of dramas, and last week one of them was enacted right out on our own gridiron. Les Williams went into that game with a hand all bandaged up. He was fighting on every play but in between times we noticed a look of anguish on his face and we wondered—. There were only two of us besides himself who knew about it, but that boy-was in there with a busted hand. And maybe you think that any kind of a-v broken bone, no matter how small it is, doesn't hurt! ! ! ! It's stuff like that that makes us feel that we're worthy of the name Vikings. —r-o—o—— "Have a Murad", said the football fan to the sports' writer last Saturday, as they sat in front of the radio listening to the game results coming in. o—o And how-that Pollaka does smack into 'em! He's only been/ here a short time but fights as if he's been playing with the Vikings for the past five years. He loves a football that.fellow—can't get enough of it. He'd run out of his way ten yards just to figure in the pile-up that stops the ball carrier. o—o—— He stands up ,there_ yelling « and when that ball's snapped he socks through., there., like., lightning and with head down, he drives his shoulder into the ball-packer. With all of his energy gone, he was "out" after the game Friday, and Why? Because he puts his "all"-into every play. ——o—o—— Tonight We tie into the College of Pugel Sound, Loggers and unless there's a big reason for it, we'll be right there in Tacoma when the whistle blows. C. P. S. stands at the top of the Northwest Conference ladder. Last Saturday they fought their old rival, Willamette, to a standstill down at Salem, Ore., but have won every other game to date. This means for us, plentee of competition, and the toughest well get this year—. So, go get 'em Vikings! ——«——o — ' ' Ruth and Lois Erwin spent the last week end at Blaine.

You Are Invited to //-...•vlVJslt'iOinj/-' Lr DJtSfcLIBRARY 213 East Holly Street Blue Bird Inn Outweighed, but hot outfought, the Vikings held a powerful St. Martins team.to a 0-0 tie in a spectacular football game last Friday on Waldo field. Vikings Hold Bangers The contest was packed with thrills but the outstanding feature of the game occurred in the first quarter when the . Rangers drove deep into Normal territory to t he one-yard line, only to be held for four downs by a sturdy defense that refused to give a foot. The first three attempts by the Saints were line smashes that failed to accomplish the purpose. On the fourth and last try, the determined St.. Martin backfield started a sweeping, end run, but Sinko, Normal's speedy halfback, came charging in to drive the college ballpacker out of bounds and thereby keeping the Viking goal line uncrossed. Normal Threatens The Vikings' opportunity to score came in the first half when Smith, Normal halfback, intercepted a St. Martin pass and with a clear field ahead of him galloped 55 yards before he was overtaken from behind. Bagley then threw a pass to Christie who was downed on the college 11-yard line. However, the Ranger defense stiffened and the Viking scoring threat was over for that time. •- • On a series of fumbles in the first half, Normal had the ball within the Saint's 30-yard stripe four times, but was unable to advance it fur* ther. Sinko Makes Run On one occasion, Sinko thrilled the crowd by a spectaular return of a St. Martin kick. The ball, after be-' ing punted by the Rangers, looked as if it were going out of bounds near midfield. However, Sinko picked the ball out of the air after the first bounce, and sprinted 25 yards through the St. Martins team before the amazed Rangers were able to stop him. The second half of the game was mainly a punting and passing duel between the two teams. Both squads were kicking beautifully, but the passing attack was very poor, and few gains were made via the air route. Turner Blocks Punt I n the fourth quarter, Turner, Viking end, made a sensational block of a St. Martin punt. A Normal player recovered the ball on the opponent's 45-yard line. But the scoring punch was not evident, and Normal was unable to advance the ball. However, the game ended a. few minutes later. The entire Viking squad played heads up football, although the outstanding player was Sulkosky, Viking Guard. Sulkosky, besides being an inspiration "to his team by Jiis constant flow of pep, played a wonderful defensive game, being in almost every St. Martin play. ——'-—-o Vikings A head in Six Tilts Played in Past With C. P. S. Outfit This evening in Tacoma marks the seventh meeting between the Loggers of C. P. S. and the Normal Vikings on the gridiron. In the six previous games the Vikings rolled up a total of 162 points to 48 points for their opponents, winning four games losing one and tying the other. Rivalry started between the two schools in 1916 when the Vikings stood out like a red nose to win twice 46 to 0 and 78 to 14. The next game wasn't played until 1921 when the Normalites came out on top again, 17 to 6. The . next year the game ended/again in favor of the Vikings, 14 to 7. They didn't meet .again until, 19303 which ended in a 0 to 0 tie. And last year the Logger^ won their'first game, 21 to 7. Name: Tinval R. Brinkman. Born i907; Ferndale, Wash.

E. office and. Coach Carver wishes to stress the fact that. all the managers must attend this meeting at the set time because of the fact that the schedule will be drawn up a t this time. At present no teams have officially made known their desire to enter the league but several teams are rumored to be considering the matter. This opportunity to, enter a good league of fast teams will be offered to any group of men in.school who wish to-enter, a team and if there are too many teams entered it will be necessary to have the games on more than three days a week. Several teams are already turning •out in the ,gym in the afternoons. Although the schedule will not commence until after the Thanksgiving holidays. Basketball will be the favorite pastime of many of the young men gt; before that time. WENTY-SEVEN gridders strong, the Viking football squad led by Head Coach Sam Carver; -slipped into Tacoma this m o r n i n g a n d tightened the i r belts with determination, as they face the strong C. P. S. eleven tonight at the Tacoma stadium in one of the toughest games on the Viking schedule. Facing a team that has hurdled the strongest minor college football teams'in .this section, the Vikings are on the short end of the odds. Sandberg's C. P. S. eleven has taken Pacific University, Whitman, College of Idaho and tied with Willamette in four successive weeks of play, and with two remaining games yet to play are practically assured of first place, with a tie at the worst in the final standings of the Northwest Conference. Beaton Back With the return of Beaton in the backfield, the Vikings' chances are a little brighter as Williams who did the kicking for the locals will be out for the PPPPP
