The voices, low, medium, and high in pitch are suitably grouped and in the rendering of apiece of literature they play in and out with each other or "fall into a choral harmony much as in the rendering of music. The importance of pitch, cadence, enunciation and rhythm are all deftly calculated in producing effects achieved by the choir. Other methods used to heighten effects are gestures and lighting effects. v First Group Organized .;. This choir under the direction of Elizabeth M. Jenks, is the first group of its kind to be organized in the West. The group first started making, public appearances in 1931, and has been steadily gaining popularity. •'•••; The verse speaking choir is now offered as a regular course in the Speech department of the San Jose Teachers college. It is organized like a glee club so that students may begin.in a junior chorus and if then-work is outstanding, they may work into the senior choir. Miss Jenks and her chorus will arrive in Bellingham on Sunday, .November 26.

Activities began Friday evening at 7 o'clock when Bill Allan led an all-school serpentine from Edens hall down through Holly street and back to/jthe new athletic field for the big bonfire celebration. The day's pro- , gram ended with an evening Rec hour. At noon Saturday a luncheon was held in the Edens hall dining room, which was pronounced a decided success under the direction of Chairman Tim Lowe! V ^ Next was the main feature of of Contribution Red Cross Campaign Will Conducted Separately This Year . Be Because the Red Cross is having its own campaign for funds this year, separate from the Community Fund, Mrs. • Gragg and Dr. Bond have been appointed by President Fisher to take charge of the faculty contributions for that organization. The Red Cross is following its national policy by withdrawing from the community chest movements and conducting a campaign of its own. In.this campaign anyone is invited to contribute. The minimum contribution for a membership in the organization is $1. The Red Cross completed in the past year the greatest relief task in its fifty-two years of existence. Supplied with government cotton and wheat, it distributed 10,500,000 barT rels of flour to nearly 6,000,000 families, and 104,000,000 .garments; to more than 5,000,000. families. Flour was provided in every state and ail but six counties. More than 25,000,- 000 people were aided in relief work. The Red Cross aided in unemployment relief in over 2,500 communities in this' country. Ninety-two disasters in the United States and its insular possessions. called for Red Cross relief, four disasters occurring abroad. Moffatt Speaks On Club History At AlkisiahMeet Alkisiah Club Was Organized ' First Tear that the Normal Opened the (Continued on Page Four) "The History of the Alkisiah club", was the topic of a talk given by Miss Moffatt at the last meeting of the Alkisiah club. The Alkisiah club was first organized under the name of the Al-cott society, in 1898, the same year that the Normal school was opened. The club was a part of the regular school work, its aims being; practice in public speaking, current events and service. Miss Ida Agnes Baker was the sponsor and critic. The name of, the society was changed to the present name of Alkisiah, taken from the Indian words, Alki, meaning near, and Siah, meaning far. Together this word means, the reaching of objectives in the near future. The literary interests seemed to broaden with the new name, and the club studied, debate, authors, the short story, plays and artists. The club^erected the bird bath beside Edens hall. Some of the other activities they participated:in were: the sale of seals at Christmas and the laying of a corner stone.. They also brought a picture exhibit of original painting of Washington artists to the school on two different years.

You have your chance. Listen! The Bellingham Theatre Guild is presenting for four days beginning next Tuesday the 27th, Sam Jan-ney's mystery thriller "The Black Flamingo," a story that takes place one night in a wayside tavern around the year 1798. Besides being outstanding, it boasts several of Normal's past actors and actresses. Eilene Morrison who plays Laura Cram in the school's first quarter production, "Holiday" portrays the part of the loud mouthed wife of the inkeeper. Other persons who have at one time gone to Normal, appearing in the production are: Quentin Rochefort, the priest; John James, De Lussac; and Mary Ruth Bailey, Diane. Reservation should be made as soon as possible at Stark Piano Co., as the tickets are going fast. The admission is forty cents. Social Science Club Sets Meeting Date Due to the fact that the Social Science club meeting dates of second and fourth Mondays of every month conflicted with the Alkisiah club dates, the meetings will be held the second and fourth Tuesdays of every month. At the meeting held Monday night, November 20, in the Edens hall club room, Frank Brown reported that a Social Science club party was planned for some time shortly following Thanksgiving with a dinner, dancing, and card playing as the entertainment features. Ralph Hofman was the speaker scheduled for the meeting, but as he was called for play practice his talk on the Jewish question was postponed till. the next meeting. • '•.- ':o—•• — '. • Bureau Announces ions Secured Miss Elizabeth Hopper of the Appointment bureau has received word of the appointment of fifteen more students who have completed their teaching course here.

Roosevelt in his address to the third annual Women's Conference of Current Problems, at its meeting in New York City on October 13; One was to the effect that despite present adverse conditions too many teachers are being "turned out" each year. The other, "The quality of our teaching in almost every state can be definitely and distinctly raised," is a direct challenge to the institutions of education. When questioned as to her viewpoints on this situation, which the President has brought before us, Miss Mary E. Rich, director of the training school, broadly granted the President's estimates to be justifiable, but took exception to his further remark, "Over-production of teachers is just as much an economic waste as building steel rail plants far beyond the ability of railroads to use steel rails." This, she considered a rather far-fetched comparison. It is the theory of Miss Rich that more preparation for teaching would take care of this condition, with greater benefit to both teacher and pupil. ---------- Northwest Viking - 1933 November 24 - Page 2 ---------- wMmicnm^ e I^rthwest Vikirig ESTABLISHED 1899 Published every Friday except during the month of September by the Associated Students, Washington State Normal School, Bellingham.

Grads, students, and faculty members alike thoroughly enjoyed every minute of your program. Donna Aisted, Tim Lowe, Bill Allan, Sammie Carver, Dr. E. A. Bond, and Mr. L. A. Kibbe deserve a great deal of praise for their work as committee chairmen. ^ The team put on a real game which was worth everything it cost, figuring on the basis of three home games for over two dollars. Members of the Lynden high school band played up the fracas with their lively tunes and drill formations. Ralph Shenenberger and Bob Lindsley gave us a football booklet which is more than,a booklet; it is a real souvenir. To the many others who did their bit we say 'thank, you.* Another REAL Problem Realizing the tremendous importance of the coming abolishment of practically all restraint on the manufacture and sale of alcoholic beverages, Governor Clarence D. Martin appointed an advisory liquor control commission. This commission submitted its report two weeks ago and on the whole provides for an ideal plan to cope with the drink problem. In its major aspects the proposed set-up is similar to the plans used in the Canadian provinces. We realize liquor is a problem even in Canada, but until someone comes forth with a more workable solution we must be content to follow those countries who have had the most success in handling the question. Simplification Suggested John Christy, student body president, believes it would be a wise plan to provide a separate fund such as the library and health fees for lectures and entertainments. If this plan were adopted the responsibility for the success of these undertakings would rest entirely with the administration. Under this new plan students who formerly took a six-hour load will have to bear their share of the cost. Formerly these students were able to enjoy programs paid for by others by not being required to pay a student's association fee. . We believe this proposal to be a step in the right direction. After all, why should the Board of Control be responsible for programs if they have no hand in the selection of the speakers and artists? If this plan goes into effect during the winter quarter the student activities card will cost $5.50 instead of $7. The board will still look after athletics, social life and publications.

W. C. Eells, professor of education, Stanford university, in "Salaries and the Cost of Living", Washington Education Journal for November, 1933, shows why the educators of this country are protesting the tremendous lowering of wages. Salaries Discussed The popular argument today is that taxes are too high and that teacher's salaries which come from taxation should be reduced to meet the reduction in the cost of living which has come about in the last three or four years. The basis of comparison used is the Bureau of Labor statistics which are compiled yearly from the budgets of more than ten thousand families of work-ingmen. Prof. Eells points out that this is hardly fair however, since the division of expenses in the working-man's budget is entirely different from that of the professional classes. Thirty-eight per cent of the work-ingman's budget goes for food, 17 per cent for clothes, and 19 per cent for shelter. Hence only one-fourth or less of his total income goes for health, recreation, improvement, and other miscellaneous expenses. Miscellaneous' Costs High Carefully gathered statistics on the cost of instructor's living expenses show that food which has taken the big drop in cost, is only 20 per cent of the teacher's total expense while miscellaneous costs, which have not gone down at all, compose over 50 per cent of the educator's budget. Moreover, while teachers' salaries have been cut, the demands upon them have become heavier until in comparison with 1929-1930, 1932-1933 shows that individuals wholly or chiefly dependent upon teachers, for support had increased 59 per cent; the number of partial dependents had increased 200 per cent.

First Game Of Class B Is Walkover Y.M.C.A. Triangle Team Takes Easy Win From Junior Varsity in Thriller TEAM MAKES BAD SHOWING Starlund, Miles, Are Outstanding on Junior Varsity Normal's Junior Varsity team met ignominious defeat at the hands of the Y. M. C. A.'s Triangle team at the Y. M. C. A. last Tuesday night when the Y. M. O. A. team broke up the Junior Varsity defense to win, 34-17. At the very beginning of the game the Triangle team showed their offensive strength and made several points before the Normal team got started and after the first few minutes of play the Triangle team led by almost two to one. Singer Stars for «Y" Singer, "Y" forward, along with Reckhus, played an outstanding game which the Normal boys had plenty of difficulty in checking. Singer would constantly get the ball away on the defensive and make points completely unaided, while Reckhus aided with his accurate passing on the set-ups. An especially large number of fouls were called as both teams were accustomed to playing on larger floors. In the second half Normal showed strength for a while, at one time the score being 25-13. Hager did a good part of the offensive work. The lineup follows: Normal Y.M.C.A. Miles F. McAllison Nielson F. Singer Nielson C Reckhus Albee G..

Vikings and Daniel Hall Are Leading League The 1933 Intramural basketball race is getting tighter and tighter as the days pass. At the present time there is only one undefeated team and that is Daniels hall. Last evening they met and defeated the N. W. Viking squad who are now holding down second place. The reporters have lost only one game. Following closely on the heels of the leaders are the Frosh and the Co-op quintets. Each of these teams have been defeated but once and are still very much in the running. The Co-op five was defeated by the Newspaper men in a close game while the Frosh team lost to the Daniel hall boys. o— Season's Highlights Your writer has tried to pick out the important events of the football season that has just ended. Of all the things that happened the following events probably stand out the most—The Vikings winning their first game in two years when they defeated the Pacific Lutheran college— Sinko's 70-yard run that ended on the 2-yard line in the C. P. S. game—Davidson plunging through the P. L. C. line for the first score of the year—Williams breaking away for 50 yards and the second score in that same game—Little Willie Toby's catch of that pass against Ellensburg when he was knocked cold (in other words, out)—Sulkosky putting the old pep and fire in the line and telling them where the next play was coming (if he said it was coming around right end they all watched the right side of the line) —Big Bill Frender blocking that P. L. C. punt and putting the ball in position for the first score of the season—The few spots of really brilliant playing of the Vikings, such as in that C. P. S. game—The defensive work of Bagley and Finley throughout the season. o FOG Fog is a drifting end Of the cool while veil Of the moon.

A week of more than usual interest and activity has just ended for the volleyball turnouts. Now that the smoke of intramurals has cleared away the inter-class teams have been formed. These teams will hereafter be referred to as the freshman team and junior team. Owing to a small number of turnouts from the sophomore class, no sophomore team was organized, the three aspirants from that class to be held for substitute play. We wonder will it be possible to keep Johnny Bromley on the side lines,, after having witnessed the pep and enthusiasm she displayed in the intramurals. * * * * * Last week's final game of the intramural season brought victory to the Blues over the Whites by a game score of 2-0 and point scores of 21-8 and 21-12. This also brings a season victory to the Blues, captained by Bromley. * * * * * The new teams, formed Monday night, will be captained by Peggy Starlund, junior, and Donnie Grant, freshman.

In the first half of the game indications were that the Reds would increase their former lead, but good team work in the second half brought the Blues through to a victory of 3-2, tying the scores of games played thus far. * * * * * ....Soccer play has been continuing despite the shortage of turnouts, and Miss Weythman, coach, hopes to form two interclass soccer teams in the near future though both teams will be playing short.

EehicatedToe Of Dinslow Wonderful Exhibition of Punting By Ellensburg Right End Feature of Game gt; VIKINGS MAKE DESPERATE TRY Game Fought on Even Terms Throughout Entire Period Long spiraling punts of the sturdy right foot of Dinslow, Ellensburg right end, spelled defeat for the Vikings last Saturday in their annual Homecoming game. The Wildcats came out on the long end of a 6-to-0 score and thus took the tri- Normal championship home with them" for the fourth consecutive time. In every department of the game except kicking the Vikings played on even terms with the boys from over the mountains. Every exchange of punts lost the Normal team from ten to twenty yards. Vikings Threaten The Vikings made only one dangerous bid for a score and that came in the first quarter. A varied attack consisting of passes from Williams to Miller and several end-around plays with Odell and Toby carrying the ball, put the pigskin inside the Wildcats' 10-yard line. Here, however, the Ellensburg defense stiffened and the Vikings finally lost the ball on downs when they passed over the goal line. The Wildcats' score came with about five minutes left to play in the second quarter, when McMinds, fullback, plunged over from the 6- inch line. The ball was put in scoring position by two runs by Sanders, elusive halfback, that were good for 26 yards, and by an off-side penalty against the Vikings. This gave the Wildcats a first in ten on the Normal's 5-yard line, from where line plunges by Sanders and McMinds put the ball across. The attempted try-f or -point was off too far to one side. Sanders Stands Out Sanders, Ellensburg half, was the best ground gainer on the field on either team, with Williams, Viking back, coming a close second. Toby also made several substantial gains when he packed the ball on an end-around play that worked fairly well. On defense, Captain Otto Finley, Sulkosky and Odell stood out.

Plans Made For ^joyaWeTrip Northwest Viking Staff All Set for Quarterly Gating At 5 o'clock today the Viking gang will leave for Glacier cabin up the Mount Baker highway for then-quarterly week-end party. Thirty or more people will ramble out the highway in a big bus or two—that is, all who can find riding room among the bedding and grub. Food Filling Nancy Jane Smith, general chairman, gives oath (on the Viking office dictionary) that they will have the best time had in the fall quarter. "Plenty of food—and a grand lack of precious sleep," says Nancy. Six grand meals have been planned by the food committee, composed of Beth Hankins, chairman, Bob Linds-ley, June Larson and Margaret Bradley. They are to eat everything from caviar to chile con carne. All members of the party are expected to take turns playing chef or dishwasher. Program Pleasurable Mary Fisher, in charge of the program, has arranged full days and evenings of pleasure for the staff members and their guests. Saturday the gang will hike up Table mountain, taking lunches with them, and returning at dinner time. There will be skiing at Heather Meadows and a portable phonograph will add to the hilarity at the cabin. A last word of, warning is issued to the modern misses of 1933—wear your grandfather's red flannels or you freeze. Each person is asked to bring his own blankets—and plenty of them, "for it's cold on that thar mount'in."
