Vacation Bound! "Glory, glory and salvation, This is the day for vacation, When we leave the Bellingham station For the land of civilization." —Anonymous. The limerick above can be heard being sung by many of the students as they joyfully look forward to the Thanksgiving vacation starting today at noon. Joy may be in their hearts, but study books can be found in many suitcases, for term examinations are scheduled in the near future. But to all of you, the Collegian staff wishes a very happy Thanksgiving vacation. 'Chest' Quota Topped Here "Over the top" is the $1,820.50 contributed to Bellingham's 1948 community chest fund by the college division.

[jjjj Stated Victor Hoppe, "The WWC ^presentation will capture the home- I like charm of the Hanson family of San Francisco. But the Hanson family is as it should be in t h e theatre, your family and mine. The play evokes warmly the familiar feel of home life and succeeds in achieving the feel of our American way of life. The management hopes you are planning to 'Remember Mama' next week. If you can Come and we can make you smile jknd feel glad that you came—we ' shall say with Mama 'Is good'." £ f. \.

Hicks served as head of the college division together with Miss Georgia P. Gragg. Dr. Hicks stated that not only was this group the first to reach its quota but WWC has never failed to attain its expected goal in former community chest drives. Six Bands Parade At Homecoming Six bands added color and pageantry to the general excitement of the Homecoming game with CPS. Parading the length of the field before kickoff, the bands of Bellingham, Ferndale, Anacortes, Nook-sack, CPS and WWC escorted Queen Sigrid XI and her court to t he stands. Then they grouped in the north stands to play the national anthem together. The WWC band performed first at half-time, saluting the Loggers with an L and playing the CPS "fight song." Following this they executed several formations to play "Honeyboys on Parade" for Doris Pickett's military dance on the bass drum. Collection Started For French Girl "It's time for AWS to be sending a Christmas package to Germaine, our foster child in France," declared Evelyn Bingham, chairman of the Foster Child committee. "Since she belong in a sense to all of us, we'd like each member'to help. If you have any pins, barettes, ribbons, toys or anything else you feel a little girl of 10 would like, please have it ready to give to the girl who is collecting in your house." Collections for Germaine's Christmas gifts will be made during the week of November 29 to December 3. Conference on Credits Held At U. of W. Another conference to discuss the transferring of credits was held at the University of ' Washington, Friday, November 19. Three educational colleges: Western Washington, Central Washington, Eastern Washington, Washington State, and* University of Washington participated. A chosen committee including Donald A. Ferris, Stewart A. Johnston, Edward J. Arntzen, M. S. Kuder, and Irwin A. Hammer have been handling a number of different courses leading to professional careers. Some of. these are: pre-medical, pre-dent-istry, nursing, engineering, pharmacy, agriculture and journalism. ™Mr. Ferris wishes to inform students that a new course in composition, English 102, will be introduced spring quarter. He then went on to say that students contemplating a transfer would do well to take English 100, 101, 102. The committee working together hope to iron out difficulties of transfer students concerning credits, thus suggesting a new spirit of cooperation among colleges. Vik Band Will Play WWC's band will play for the Thanksgiving Day game with UBC, according to its director, Don Walter. A special Thanksgiving Fantasy, featuring traditional melodies and hymns, is planned to replace the usual half-time marching drills. Members will be in uniform, however. Thursday's appearance will mark the close of the marching season for the Viking band. Because many members have been excused to go home for the holiday, the band will be at half-strength. Prof. Brier to Address College Journalists Music-Auditorium Bids Due Soon Bids will be called for on December 4 for a unit of the Auditorium- Music building. Dr. W. W. Haggard announced that the bids w i l l be opened December 21. The construction of the A r ts building is expected to be finished by the fall 1949 quarter. The architect for both buildings is Bebb and Jones of Seattle. S. S. Miller of Seattle is the head contractor on the Arts building. Mechanical contracting is being handled by A. J. Blyth Plumbing Heating Co. and the electrical contracting by Howard E. Mills, both of Bellingham. Board Acts to Stop Ticket Transferrals At the Wednesday Board of Control meeting, president Gus Pagels read a letter from the Athletics committee. It stated that one person had been denied entrance to the Homecoming football game because the students activity card used, belonged to someone else. Board members recommended, that any students caught passing activity cards, from now on will lose them. All WWC students are asked to cooperate in this issue. -4» Professor Howard Brier, director of the Pacific Slope School Press association will be the speaker ap- Datelimi e Wednesday noon, Nov. 24 to Monday morning, Nov. 29—Thanksgiving vacation.

It is expected that others will reply soon. College of Puget Sound and Central Washington college have replied to the invitation issued by WWC. College of Puget Sound Tam-anawas, the yearbook, is sending Ken Adair, editor; Ross Bischoff, business manager; and Lois Wash-und. The CPS newspaper, College of Puget Sound Trail, will be represented by John Youngman, business manager; Nadine Kensler, news editor; and Louis Raphel.

Tentative plans for Friday include a general introduction to the Collegian office, a speaker from the University of Washington, criticism of college papers with a roundtable discussion, tour of the campus, luncheon at Edens hall, speakers for both annual and newspaper staffs, business session, and a dinner-dance. Main events scheduled for Saturday will be a summary of suggestions of the conference and the presentation of "I Remember Mama." Do You Want A Student Union Building? WWC Students Voice Opinions on Controversial Question "Do you want a new student union building?" This was the question posed by the Collegian to some of WWC students in order to get a sample of student opinion on the subject. Since the new building program has begun there has been a lot of talk on the matter of building a Student Union building to house the various student functions. The majority of the students interviewed seemed to feel that it would be a good idea to have a new Student Union building but they didn't know how we would pay for it and some weren't quite sure where we would put up such an edifice. Thought on the subject was divided into several schools of opinion; Don Olson who said "Yes if it does not affect the building program. But how are the students going to raise the money. We might put a levy (tax) on all incoming and transfer students from now on." Bonnie Lundgren exclaimed, "I think it would be just dandy, providing we can raise enough money for it. But if we had the money where would we put it, oh dear." Marie Javonivich agreed with Bonnie, "I think it would be fine; we need a new one. It would be really a good place to spend a little spare time." David Grayson was quite positive in his opinion, "Absolutely and positively yes; the one we have is inadequate. We could do well with another one." Duane Lewis wants a hew student union building ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1948 November 24 - Page 2 ---------- Americans Give Thanks Every generation, since the time when Americans first began to realize what a miracle they had created in the New World, has had faith in the great American Dream. Each generation has had its poets and sages who have recorded for -posterity, their version of what that dream consisted. In November, 1948, Americans in all parts of our land are considering what their dream of the future is made of and what it means to them. As our millions of citizens prepare to take thanksgiving for the blessings which have been freely bestowed upon all Americans, there is a new faith and a new hope for the future. Probably the one prayer' most whispered by the peoples of America and of the entire world, is the prayer for lasting peace. The selfish attitude of "Peace in our time!" has been replaced by a hope for "Peace for all time." At this Thanksgiving, our people will give thanks for many blessings. We are thankful for our freedom to worship as we see fit. We are thankful for our rights as free men to say what we think. We are thankful to be Americans. At this Thanksgiving, we are thankful for our democracy and are hopeful for the day when its full benefits will be bestowed upon certain of our citizens who make up minority groups in our land. We are thankful in 1948, that peace—a very troubled and unsure peace to be sure—has been secured for millions of the world's people. We are hopeful that another year may bring a healthier world and a new meaning of life. The American Dream for 1948 contains the hopes of not only Americans but of the peoples of the earth. "Let our unceasing, earnest prayer Be too, for light,—for strength to bear Our portion bf the weight of care, That crushes into dumb despair One half the human race." —Longfellow. The editors of the WWCollegian know that its columns should obtain names of students. Every possible effort is being made to include more names because the Collegian recognizes the fact that students like to see their names in print. However, the criticism has been leveled by some students that the paper, which is owned by the student-body, is favoring faculty news above news of student interest. Granted that the Homecoming issue necessarily had many stories of interest to alums but that was an exception. Last week the Collegian ran 39 stories of interest to its student owners and only two stories which affected faculty members primarily. There were 108 student names and 14 pictures of students. The staff will continue to use more names of students in the future. As for humor. Editor Pagels and staff seem to be doing a good job on that end. What do you think? 6 bOWMG Faculty Sketch Sees Maurice Freehill Lured To Western By LOWELL LIKKEL One of the new friendly faces on the faculty list is that of Dr. Maurice Freehill who has recently joined the Education department. A product of the traditional one-room school, his academic pursuits have brought him to many halls of learning including Stanford where he received his Master of Arts degree in Education. Dr. Preenni began his formal education in Alberta where, brrrrr, it's mighty cold. At the age of thirteen he began earning his way through school. Despite this handicap, his popularity and ambition won him the student body presidency at the University of Alberta. Along with his duties as student body president he was active in drama and sports. Upon graduation from the Universities of Alberta and Ottawa he spent eight years teaching in Canadian high schools, where he held such positions as principal and coach. His versatile ability on two different occasions won him the Western Canada award for best acting and directing. Sunny California lured him away from the wheat country to Stanford where he received his Doctorate of Education last August. "In contract to the rolling plains of Canada I enjoy Washington's green hills," said Dr. Freehill, "and the friendly people." Our faculty choice for the week certainly has acquired many interests while searching the realms of learning. But relax, ladies, he has not yet acquired a wife. Who knows .. . people in Washington are friendly. —o June 6, 1928, the name of the paper was changed from "The Weekly Messenger" to "The Northwest Viking." Later it was changed to the present name of "The Collegian." Even those with the finest ton-sorial intricacies cannot withstand weekly pressure. Thus, I have decided to find out just what other students in school are Crowing about. I should have worn ear-muffs . .. Chuck Hurlbut: What's wrong with the paper? What's good about it? Same stale news, same personalities, neglect a lotta student news! Sport coverages aren't complete. ". Montag Fortze: "All right, got no gripe." Dave Qnam: If it's supposed to be a student paper why isn't there more student news? Too much faculty stuff—not enough humor. Bryce Tilton: Needs more humor. Seems kinda prejudiced, too. Fred DeBruler: If you can't put together a newspaper by student effort and have it accepted as such, there is no use haying a school paper. ,,• Frank Gayda: Same dry coverage. ^Nojlife to it. Very little student hit-merest.;.-/•-' Bob Mills: No student gossip. Too formal for thestudents. Advising . with Pagels seems backward. D. H. Sallee: "Keep running those pictures of pretty women." Barbara Butler: I get tired of reading advertising in place of student news. How about letting the ads take the place of the present routine news, and give the students back their house news! Jack Loony: Nothing to it. What-tsa matter, controlled press? Jack Krause: Let's see some different people in the paper with more humor and student interest. Ernest Sams: "Except for the fact that some critical comments are not considered carefully, the paper is quite an improvement over l a st year's." Earmuffs! I should have lost my ears. These were the opinions of but twelve students picked at random. I'm not gonna pick there anymore; somedays ya just can't make a nickle. Least I could have done was ask people smaller than i, but no! I thought I could bluff my way through with ^ the prestige of my Press card.

Tiny Thornton Now Exposed By LEX MILTON Mr., Mrs., and Miss Western, I would like you to meet Mr. H. Marion Thornton (at least that is how he's listed on the 1938 football trophy.) But around here he's called "Tiny," because of his obvious bulk. He's not a bit sensitive about his name, or.his size; for as he says, "You've got to face the facts." We're forced to admit he's a lot of man. Tiny attended this institution for the first time in 1938, and played on that winning team. His schooling was interrupted by the war when he went into the Navy. He came back in 1946 to continue his pre-medic's course and hopes to finish soon in order to attend medical school. As one who has attended other higher institutions (while in the service, and as a freshman), Tiny says that Westerns faculty as a whole is more cooperative than many others. Right now/ one of Tiny's big interests is the Camera club, so let's give it a plug. As president, he is very interested in showing the school just what their club can do.

So far this fall the Birds have failed to win a single game, their record includes only one tie, 13-13 with Whitman. The Blue and White, on the other hand now boast of a .500 average, 4 wins and 4 losses. One of the Norse victories was at the expense of UBC, 40-0 at Vancouver in early season. However, since the CanUck squad has improved immensely, and they promise that they will give the hill-toppers a real battle. The man to watch in the Thun-derbird lineup is Doug Reid, all conference back, who did not appear in the last UBC game. There is talk at the Canadian school of permanently retiring the little speedster's number 38 jersey. Other than Reid, the Birds boast an aerial attack that is better than average, with Bob Murphy, their T formation quarterback, doing most of the throwing. Game time is noon Thanksgiving day at Battersby field. It's the football game of the season, so get out and support the home team.

WESTERN'S VIKINGS B. C. THUNDERBIRDS Second Annual Intramural Swim Meet December 3 The Western Washington spectacle of splash, the Intramural swimming meet is drawing ever closer, and from the entry list it appears that almost all the organized houses will have some representation for the December 3 aqua-fest. Last year the meet was run off with a minimum of preparation and even though there was little work done before hand, it was run off smoothly and efficiently. This year, the ground work has been well laid, and unless something goes astray at the last minute, the event will top all previous attempts in both number of entrants and performances. For some time now, the school has been pondering the question of a minor sports schedule, and the success or failure of the Intramural swimming meet will have a large bearing on the final decision on minor sports. So far some top flight aquatic starts have registered with Sam Carver for the big splash of the year, but there is still time to get into the swim.

In the fourth quarter the Vikings intercepted a Ranger pass on the Ranger 17 yard line. On the- next play Karnofski went over the Ranger goal for the second time. The Viks incurred a penalty on the play and the touchdown was no good. The second touchdown was made on a hand off from Karnofski to Lee Stout who in turn passed MP Dave Smith for the touchdown. The; conversion attempt was no good. , Three times during the game the Rangers marched within the Viking thirty yard line. These threats bogged. down when the Ranger backs fumbled.
