I 99 i TZMuMike LETTERS. . . Shape Up, Girls!To the Editor: The writers of this letter would like to criticize the deplorable situation of the feminineattire which seems to prevail at Western. Having attended other institutions of higher learning, we findthat the fair maidens' appearance on this campus is somewhat deplorable. It is a most unfortunatesituation. Western has its share of attractive girls but they are certainly not doing themselves justiceby their dress. One finds it extremely displeasing to look at some slovenly feminine-types that can be found in abundance in the Coffee Shop. Is this the current trend in American fashion? We say "skirtsand dresses" in, "sawed-off blue-jeans" out. Come on girls, give it a go! T. D. and B. MisinformedBorman? Dear Editor: For the information of Miss Judy Borman: Perhaps, Miss Borman, you should do a little more research before you write articles as you did about the condition of the Coffee Shop. Asyou say, the Coffee Shop is Page 2 open longer hours, and therefore, there is additional wear on thefloors. But, the management of the Coffee Shop is doing all they can to keep the floors clean and waxed. Thirty-eight man hours per week are spent in cleaning and waxing the floor. If you see the floors in whatyou call "despicable" condition, it is during the day when our clean-living students litter the floor withassorted papers and cigarette butts, because the floors are swept and mopped each evening. MissBorman, we of the Coffee Shop staff would like to extend to you an invitation to come and watch or helpwith the scrubbing and waxing process that goe-3 on every weekend. Nancy Rabourn Thanks from Kate To the Student Body: White Horse, Yukon Terr. Feb. 28, 1962 Prospectors and broads, Thanks amillion for the reception I received upon my arrival to your campus. It was truly a big day in my life!The staff of Kate's Lucky Star Mine and myself hope all of you had a gala time at our little grand opening function! I regret to inform you that I have returned to the Yukon. Unfortunately the fast mov-WESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAN Deal 'em, Cal ing pace of college life (twist dances) is just toomuch for an old gal like me! I am returning the deed of the Viking Union Building along with a check ofthe profits from our grand opening which is to be donated in my name to the WUS. Thanks foreverything. Good Bye. Love, Klondike Kate P.S. Would the Batchelor's Club please return my girls?THE FIFTH CORNER by Judy Borman On the Library poll: Students asked to indicate their prefer-ance on weekend library hours (to maintain current Sat. and Sun. hours of 2 to 6 p.m. or to change them to 1 to 5) marked their choice with noted indifference. It looked as though the change would be generallyprefered, probably because of conflict with dinner hours, but most students shrugged and asked"What's the difference?" It seems that this poll is a bit ridiculous since the-change would be such aminor one and since there was no request for other suggestions regarding week end hours. If thelibrary had conducted the poll in an attempt to find which weekend hours the students really utilize,they would probably have found that most students don't March 2, 1962 ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1962 March 2 - Page 3 ---------- care one way or the other about Saturday hours, but would like to see the library open on Sundayevenings . . . Sunday evening, after all, has always been the traditional 'study time-' of theotherwise non-academic weekend. * * * More on the coffee shop: In answer to Miss Rabourn andother indignant Coffee Shop staffers, here are some additional comments on the state of the CoffeeShop floor. Even those who objected to the attack of last week more or less agreed on the poor upkeepof the floor, but this qualifying point was made: The problem is primarily due to student's not bussingtheir dishes since the table mess has a way of gradually floating off onto the floor and because thestudent help employed to keep the tables cleared could be spending their time on the floor if coffee-shoppers would assume the bussing responsibility. Also, a large effort is being made to keep this floorlooking well, so the fact that it doesn't is not due to a lack of man-hours used in sweeping, mopping,etc, but to the negligence of the students. The cry this week is "Bus those dishes" and the floor, as wellas the tables, will begin to look less like a garbage pail and more like a public eating place. On studentfaculty committee on academic dishonesty: Some positive steps are being taken to clear up somequestions on the problem of cheating in college courses. A joint faculty-student committee has met andbegun to formulate some possible policies concerning this problem. Students or faculty members whohave complaints or suggestions are invited to voice their opinions via Dean Kuder who will presentthem to the committee. Western Washington C O L L E G I A N Vol. LIV, No. 18 A WeeklyNewsmagazine Western Washington State College Bellingham, Washington Second-class postage paid at Bellingham, Washington Printed at Pioneer Printing Co., Bellingham Karen Bainter Editni MargaretSoth Assistant Editor Frosty Billingsley Feature Editor Nigel Adams Sports Editor Judy Borman NewsEditor Dave Benseler Business Manager Arden Munkres Photographei Mike Martin Assistant SportsEditor Perry Mills, Chuck Stockwell, Roy Mumme Cartoonists Tames Mulligan Advisor TAKE FIVE by Frosty Billingsley Last weekend, it happened . . . the epitome of apronstringness. Not only did theAssociated Sterile Body go home, but they were so anxious to get there that they skipped Fridayclasses to do it. Such a large dose of security all at once should last till spring vacation. Used to be,when Western was but a pup, there was not much calling for activities after the witching hour. Butgrowing as we are, and with the coming of entertainment which entertains, we are outgrowing our"College of Education" hours. The way things stand now, there are only three events which last past 12p.m. (the Prom, the SSI and the Homecoming Ball); if I remember correctly, most high schools supply about three late dances per year, also. I don't know exactly what criterion an event should meet before it be allowed to last until the "wee hours" (if 12:30 or 1:00 a.m. can be termed such), but I do know thatthese hours are wished. After all, a Chev won't turn into a pumpkin. You know, I have been under theimpression thai the Business Office of our fair college engaged in cashing student checks as part of their business-like activity. I was even informed, at the Business Office, that this was indeed so. And yet Ifound it impossible to get a $75 ASB check cashed there. "Go to the Book Store or co-op," theysaid, "We don't have that much cash on hand . . . well, you see, today is a registration day and we'rea little short of money." Not being too sure what the fact that today was a registration day had to do with a cash shortage (in fact, it seems that they would have made sure that there was some extra on aregistration day), I went to the Book Store to cash the check. There, I was informed that this was noexception to the rule, but a regular occurence. Sure am glad we have a Book Store to take care of theBuisness Office's business. Later Bwana! Page 3 EDITORIAL BOOKSTORE REVISITED . . . Threebarbed suggestions to the always-run-through-the-mill Student Co-Op Bookstore: 1. Why not puit thebook lists for the next quarter up during the end of this quarter, and stock the shelves so it's possible tobuy some of nexit quarter's books ahead of time? This would enable students to do some of their readingduring spring vacation and would also take some of the pressure off the Bookstore during the firstweek of school next quarter. This was mentioned in Judy Bormans column before but why doesn't theBookstore order enough books for classes? It seems that for every lit course I have taken this year, I have ended up waiting to get books, or never getting books, because there haven't been enough ordered to goaround. Part of this is probably due to the Registrar's letting too many people into class than theprofessor wants, but it seems to happen quite regularly, and it seems that someone should developsome foresight. 3- On the subject of just casual reading . . . Why doesn't the bookstore stock some offbeat books? Most college bookstores do. The only place I can find anything off-beat seems to be insome of ithe strictly from hunger down town bookstores in Bellingham. (And that isn't very often.) Withthe student mind whait it is, the bookstore should carry a large stock of different and controversialpaperbacks for leisure reading. Instead, the books at the bookstore resembte the selection that anyonecan obtain at any bus depot. Perhaps, if the student body were to finance a trip for the bookstoremanagers to Ferlenghetti's bookstore in San Francisco, they might get an idea about what can be done in the realm of paperbacks. March 2, 1962 WESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAN ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1962 March 2 - Page 4 ---------- ORCHESIS CONCERT The Western Washington State College Department of Physical Education willpresent the Orch-esis dance group in "An Evening of Dance Theatre," at 8:15 p.m. Friday in theAuditorium. The compositions will range from humorous satires to serious pathos. One of the uniquenumbers in the program is titled "Reflections." This is a composition based upon the nonsensical verses of Ogden Nash. The dancers will use a metronome and voices as the method of accompaniment. Most of the theatre dance forms will be represented, ballet, modern jazz, musical comedy and moderndance. The emphasis will be on the modern dance which builds movement in a time-space structureas a means to say something rather than as an exhibit of technical brilliance per se. The majority ofthe choreography has been done by the students. Some of the student choreographers are AnitaStewart, Cassandra Lawyer and Kay Bentz. Two solos will be presented; one by David Highnamwhich is titled "Climax" using the music of Bolero, and the second is in the balletic style and will bedanced by JoAnn Prin-cen. Page 4 PLAYS TO BE PRESENTED Cohen author of one "The HungerArtist," a play by Dr. Gerald Cohen of the English and Foreign Languages Departments, and "Trial ByJury," a one-act operetta by Gilbert and Sullivan, will be presented on the same bill, Sunday, March11, in the Campus School Auditorium. Directed by Dr. Paul Wadleigh, "The Hunger Artist" and "TrialBy Jury," directed by student Steve Buss, will be presented in a stylized way — with reading fromscripts but with movement, gestures and acting. It will be done with what Wadleigh terms "simplifiedstaging — reducing a lot of the details." In speaking of his play, Cohen stated, "It is a grotesquevoice-opera with dance. It was originally written as an opera libretto but I have revised it as a verse drama with music and dance . . . The idea was suggested by a short story by Franz Kafka, but I have takengreat liberties with that suggestion. It's a very different kind of play in that I'm trying to suggest someideas about individualism and protest rather than by telling about these things in prose. Theproduction will be essentially experimental, mainly to achieve dramatic and choreographic effectwith a minimum of staging. "The Hunger Artist" is about a once popular spectacle staged for theentertainment of a pleasure-seeking public; the exhibition of a professional "hunger artist" performinghis stunt of fasting in a cage of straw. A change has taken place: his spectators now see the HungerArtist as a trickster, a has-been, a common circus freak; they expect him to cheat and to break fast onthe sly. But fasting is his sole reason for existing — it is his "act." "Trial By Jury" has the followingcast: Judge, Lyle Bordner; Plaintiff, Kay Zatrine; Defendant, Ron Whitener; Consul, Don Rich-ter; Usher,Merle Gebers; Foreman of the Jury, Harry Rodenberger; and a mixed chorus of bridesmaids andspectators. Musical direction will be done by Gary Lind; choreography by Cassandra Lawyer; designby John Stanovich and Eric Lee and Sheila Stimpson will be the pianists. WESTERN WASHINGTONCOLLEGIAN LEGISLATURE New Format . . . Collegian by Dave Colburn Next year the Collegian willrevert to the news tabloid format style. A recommendation brought to the ASB Legislature Monday by Bill Burke and Dave Benseler (editor and business manager for next year) was unanimously approvedby legislators. Burke explained that the Collegian should contain more of a news reporting style andrestrict the editorializing and esoteria that is now used in the present paper which is a newsmagazine.Burke felt that a strict rein should be kept upon the Collegian's style giving informative, unbiasedinformation which would instruct future advisors of college newspapers as well as giving factualinformation to students. The Lynden Tribune's bid was accepted. Their printing features will give theCollegian more space. The Tribune will also supply and maintain a two-way teletype equipment, free of charge, to allow instantaneous transmission of news, print all pictures at no added cost, and the best feature — to print "this week's news this week." This last feature will allow the Collegian to move itsTuesday deadline to Thursday. In a business standpoint the Collegian's budget will only have to beslightly increased, and the returns to the A.S.B. will be increased. "VACANA" Prom theme"Vacana", a Venezuelan theme, has been selected for this year's Junior Prom. Ken Cloud and his bandwill afford the music amid gondolas, fountains, and bird cages tomorrow night from 9-1 in the V.U. Theentire ASB voted Tuesday on the Junior Prom Queen, making their selection from five candidates fromthe junior class. Tomorrow night will tell whether Sandi Cor-telyou, Ann Donovan, Georgina Goelzer,Penny Sullivan, or Bren-da Thomas will reign supreme at the formal event. The dance has been underthe general chairmanship of Brenda Thomas and Dave Corliss, with March 2, 1962 ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1962 March 2 - Page 5 ---------- Sandi Cortelyou in charge of decorations.

This money would be spent for the new American fad, fall-out shelters. The American people's federal legislators are not, as it looks now, going to appropriate this money for a newprogram of protection for the American people. If there are going to be fall-out shelters, each family, orcommunity, will have to provide for them. Before we all anxiously grab our spades and start digging, let'stake a good long look at what this new hysteria is that has swept over the people in this country.According to John C Wolfe, director of biology and medicine of the Atomic Energy Commission,"Fallout shelters in many areas seem only a means of delaying death." The blast of a nuclear attackis not the real menace, the real menace lies in lack of air, or radiation caused by that attack. The merefact alone of the radiation which will be present in the atmosphere, many weeks after the initial attack, formulates a problem Upstairs featuring — • SUITS • SPORT COATS • SLACKS •SHIRTS • CASUAL WEAR • EVERYTHING for the well dressed College Man GAGES 201WEST HOLLY of how many people can afford to stock their fall-out shelters for weeks? For thesereasons and many more I believe that the recent emotional hysteria engendered in the Americanpeople by our leaders is nothing more than a pure hoax. Our Nation was created, and sustained, upon Judeo-Christian morality. Supposedly most of the Christians in this nation are not afraid of death,but are prepared for it. These same individuals, however, state that we must prepare ourselves againstenemy attack by digging a hole and crawling in it like moles. Assuming these people, be they heathenor Christian, survive, what have they to live for? In the event of a truly all-out nuclear attack there wouldn't be edible food nor drinkable water. You would survive to smell the stench of a dead earth AN EARTHTHAT COULD HAVE BEEN SAVED HAD THESE SAME PEOPLE SPENT THEIR TIME ATTEMPTINGTO FIGHT COMMUNISM INSTEAD OF RUNNING FROM IT INTO THE GROUND LIKE LITTLEFRIGHTENED CHILDREN. I would rather fight a war on my feet, than suffocate, or be trapped orburned to death in a hole. I shall certainly not cower in a hole for weeks nor spend time and energy when I could be doing something to prevent any eventuality of war. One parting thought, if the Sovietswant total conquest of the world, which is evident from their words and actions, why would they destroytheir chances and their gains by annihilating themselves and their gains through nuclear war? Theywould have to be stupid to do such a thing, and if anyone thinks the Communists are stupid,LOOK AROUND AND SEE WHICH SIDE IS DIGGING HOLES AND COVERING THEMSELVES UPWITH THE REMAINING DIRT. THE OTHER VOICE . . . by Bill Burke The raging controversyconcerning the value of the latest answer to our growing war mania, optimistically referred to as the"fallout shelter," continues, and will continue as long as war preparation exists. My reasons foropposing the WESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAN March 2, 1962 ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1962 March 2 - Page 9 ---------- building of fallout shelters are essentially the same as those behind my opposition of nucleararmament itself. If we allow ourselves to believe in the highly publicized (and highly theoretical— forno one tested the performance of a shelter within the immediate range of an atomic blast) survivalcapabilities of fallout shelters, then we are avoiding the reality of the destructive power of modernweapons. The fearful American seems to think if he digs the hole deep enough, and if the cement isthick enough, he can emerge in several weeks to a world not drastically altered from the one he left. He, in his overpowering desire for safety, fails to realize that, in an area hit hard by a nuclear attack, if theblast doesn't cave in his cave, the following fire wave will remove all the oxygen from the area and he willsuffocate. Also, if the attack were a complete one —which it must be—it would raze most of the-United States, and leave the atmosphere destructive to any life for a period of time impossible to wait out in a shelter. Much of the opposition to fallout shelters centers around the belief that it is cowardly tohide in a hole. But this argument still does not accept the fact of annihilation. And this point brings usback to the proposal of nuclear disarmament. As political and military thinkers recoil in horror at themention of words like "pacifist" and "disarmament," they might stop just once to consider the fact that since, no solution has yet been discovered, it might behoove them and the nation to stop toying withlives and discover the reality of modern war. SPEAKERS TO SPEAK Something new is being tried inthe Speech Department this quarter to provide a more realistic situation for students partaking in the speech classes. One student, chosen by classmates in each of the fifteen Speech 100 classes, willspeak at 4:00 March 5 in front of all the assembled Speech 100 classes. Five students will be chosenfrom the fifteen speakers to speak at 3:00, March 7, in the Lecture Hall of Old Main. This will be open to everyone, and each of the five finalists will receive a prize.

The predicament to end allpredicaments found the Evergreen schools' representatives faced with two giant embarassing positions.The first was with the results of the Evergreen Tournament and the second was that of a real small college NAIA team dropping out of the regional competition for the ride to Kansas City in order to accept theNCAA small college as the West Coast's small representative in New York. The firsl blunder not meant tobe was that of the conference tournament results. It was supposed to go according to script. Also, itcould act as a fund raising game for the league. It did not go according to script and there is a reportthai says it might not have gone off as a fund raising tournament. First, the last place teams, Whit-worthand Eastern, won the tournament in their respective order. Western was just able to beat the leaguewinners PLU in another one of their terrific ding dong battles for third place and the alleged third placespot in the NAIA regional play-offs to be held this weekend. If you've been following so far, then the natural thing is to shake your head and wonder why they even have an Evergreen Conference just as long asthey get together at the end of the year and play to see who represents District 1 at Kansas City. Now the league champion PLU is supposed to be completely out of the picture, (keep reading to get out of thismaze) Little Seattle Pacific College down by the Government Locks gives us the second part of theblunder. Royal Brougham, Post Intelligencer Sports Editor, played up the Falcons just a little too much inthis writer's opinion. Just because they name the gym after you doesn't mean that you should give theimpression to the reading public that this team is an unbelievable small college team. Now he's giventhese poor fellows that used to have a hard time getting games with the Seattle City League a swelledhead. In fact the "Giant Killers" have decided in their excitement to jump ship and go to New York andplay in the NCAA small college tournament. Keep in mind that they already have an obligation to play inthe NAIA Regionals for Kansas City. Now in their excitement the little tiny boys from SPC face a year'ssuspension if the committee decides to act on the mistake of the SPC "good guys" as they work theirway up the ladder of success. Now to the District 1 Committee and the decision of the day. Sundayafternoon the members as a body decided that the regional playoffs would be held with Whitworth,Eastern, Western, and PLU involved. The regional play-offs will pit Whitworth against Eastern, atEastern, on Saturday night. Western will play PLU here on Saturday night. The winner of the game atEastern will visit the court of the winner on Monday night on the West side. If a third game is necessarythe two teams will travel to Eastern Washington for the play-offs. The other decision involves the SPCteam, and that one is still pending. The point of all this is to point out the ridiculousness of the need for a league tournament. First, it completely eliminates the reason for a league and the need of sending ateam with a respectable won-loss record to meet the finer teams in the United States at Kansas City. The tournament leaves a regular season attitude of "who cares" and destroys keener competition since apoor team still has the chance to take a won 2 and lost 18 record away to Kansas City, which would point not only to the weakness of the league, but to the strength of the some of the athletic directors'philosophies. Above all an ideal. But the points of a tournament at the end of the season, leaves thosetheorists with some good points to argue for, such as; a good team would never have to worry about thistournament, and it would prepare it for the bigger games. Also it allows the late comers (which is true ofour U.S. Education System) and therefore in the long run would give us the team that could react betterunder fire. (Cont. — page 11) EVCO TOURNEY Western Third by Mike Martin The first annualEvergreen Conference Tournament in Tacoma last week in which Western took third place saw lastplace Whitworth upset the cart and take first place with first place Pacific Lutheran finishing fifth. Thisweek Whitworth plays Eastern and PLU is here at Western tomorrow night. The two winners willplayoff in a three game tourney next week and the final winner will represent Dist. 1 (Wash.) in theNAIA tournament in Kansas City. Whitworth 60, Western 50 Whitworth's usual rock hard zone defenseproved a little too strong as they dumped Western in the second round of the EvCo tourney last Fridaynight. The Pirates led the game most of the way until midway in the second half when Western tied itup 46-all. The good Christians from the Inland Empire got hot at the foul line and scored 14 pointswithout a break in the last 7 minutes. The scoring splurge was too much for the Vikings and theysuccumbed, 60-50. Jim Adams, bothered with the flu, still led the Blue with 18 points. Ed Hagen wastops for Whitworth with 17. Whitworth (60) — Hagen 17, Anderson 8, Rubright 11, Otgaard 14,McGlocklin 10. Western (50) — Adams 18, Rise-land 7, Clayton 8, Huston 3, Edwards 4, Rife 8,Shugarts 2. Western 74, Pacific Lutheran 70 In the consolation bracket game Saturday night Westerntopped PLU in a game that wasn't decided until the last 30 seconds. The game was marred by foulsand saw Western's Clayton and Hans Albertson, Lute center, sitting out part of the first half with threefouls apiece. Both teams were cold at the foul line with Western 14 out of 28 tries and PLU hitting 12 of21. The usual Western-PLU brawl ensued seeing the lead change hands several times but the Lutesheld a 33-29 halftime lead. The Vikings, sparked by reserve Bob Gilda and a couple of crucial lay-ins byKingsbury, took the lead midway in the second half and held on to win. Albertson led the Tacomans with 23 points. Adams, Edwards, and Page 10 WESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAN March 2, 1962 ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1962 March 2 - Page 11 ---------- Riseland combined for 50 of Western's 74 points. Western hit 56 per cent from the floor with PLU a bit colder with 40 per cent. Add two! Western (74) — Adams 17, Edwards 16, Riseland 15, Gilda 11,Kingsbury 9, Clayton 6. Pacific Lutheran (70) — Albert-son 23, Poulson 16, Castleberry 12, Fredrickson 9, Nelson 6, Malnin 2, Olson 2. Tomorrow night's game with PLU is the most crucial of the season forWestern. The Vikings have to win to stay in contention for the Kansas City trip. UPS WINS SWIMMEET Western high 3rd Pugei Sound was unanimous Conference Champs last Saturday in E-Burg inwinning 9 of the 14 events and setting 7 Conference records. If it is any consolation to Westernswim fans, the Vikings swam a strong third. UPS garnered 145 points, Central 73 and Western 65.Times that were winners last year were out of the question this year. Coach Jacobs has put the Viking swimmers in a year of waiting as the team has matured and should be a stronger contender next year.It is interesting to note that Western's swim team held the first conference meet and championship a few years ago and wasn't even a recognized minor sport. In fact, it, like SPC in Basketball, had a hard timegetting games or meets. Now virtually every school has a swim team and it is hard not to get meets.March 2, 1962 PELOTITA (Cont.) Well, out of this mess up of the past weekend in Tacoma, let us hopethat the Ev-Co is able to finally decide just which is the right team to make the trip. Personally, I wouldn'tblame either Western or PLU players for being a little disgusted. After all, PLU has won the league andrightfully been given a berth in the regional play-offs which was intended for a league champion.(Remember, PLU was eliminated from that chance last weekend in Tacoma). The Vikings, of course,have beaten PLU and finishing second in the league deserved the other position in the regionals. Bothteams have a fine won-loss record, but those teams at the other schools with their records really have noright in the trophy room at all this year. It is the opinion of this writer that the 3 game play-off should bebetween Western and PLU as it isn't and should have not involved these two teams at all in thetournament at Tacoma. Let us hope that Royal Brougham does not coach the SPC Falcon's next year, oryou might-find them among the Top Ten Teams in the NCAA Big school rankings! RUGGAH by PeteNapper In one of the roughest and definitely the coldest games of the season, Western lastSaturday literally fought their way to a 6-6 draw with Oregon University. Temperature at game time was22° as Western played under the lights of the Port Angeles Stadium. Players augmented their shortsand "T" shirt uniforms as much as possible, but Kinsey never saw a more frigid group of males. Anunconverted try by Oregon was the only score of the first half, leaving Western with a 3-0 deficit. GaryBridgeman, taking full advantage of scrums on the Oregon five yard line, bulled over twice for twounconverted tries. Oregon retaliated with one more unconverted try, ending the scoring at 6-6. Thecrowd of 600 plus were brought to their feet midway in the second half as tempers, barely undercontrol for both teams throughout the game, erupted into a donnybrook that any fight promoter woulddearly love to stage. With approximately 20 players swinging from the heels, pandemonium reignedsupreme. Rugby was resumed shortly thereafter with each team minus a player, a penalty forunsportsmanlike conduct or hitting in the clinches. Next week, Coach Al Mathieson will sort out hiswalking wounded gladiators and head for Oregon where Western will end their scheduled season against Oregon State. This will be a ten round, non-title bout. ~HllrISTTLI^^ TOMORROW NIGHT 8:00 in GYM WESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAN WRESTLING ENDS Viks 4-3 for season Western's first varsity wrestling team closed its season last week with a creditable record of four wins and three losses.During the last two weeks of the season the Viking maimen defeated Lewis and Clark College andPacific University in Portland before bowing to the University of Washington varsity in Seattle. Lewisand Clark fell to the Vikings 32 to 5 and Pacific was a 24- 11 victim. The Huskies defeated Western22-10 in a meet thai was much closer than the team score indicates. Coach Bill Tomaras reports thatthe Vikings demonstrated great improvement during the last two weeks of the campaign and anticipatesa fine season next year. SAILING GLUB Defeat U.B.C. While Western's basketball team was provingitself on the court, Western's Sailing Club was exhibiting its prowess on the sea. A few weekendsago, the sailing club was proud to claim a third place trophy in the Seattle University Regatta. Lastweekend the club chalked up more points by defeating a team from U.B.C. Don Holert and Sally Green,skippers, took a first and second place respectively. GIRLS SPORTS The girls' basketball teamdefeated the. University of Wash., and the girls' swimming team placed third in a five-sided meet withthe University of Washington, Eastern, U.B.C, and Oregon State.
