He is the authorof more than 200 articles in educational and philosophical journals. Taylor has written two books: "OnEducation and Freedom," and "Art and the Intellect." This past year he was host on the nationaltelevision program, "Meet the Professor," and lectured before university and community audiencesthroughout the country. He also served as chairman of the committee on peace research and is adirector of the newly-founded peace research institute. Dr. Taylor will attempt to illustrate his hypothesisthat the student lives in a world of the younger generation where his problems and needs are differentfrom those of the outside world. Thus he must be given an education which can help solve theseproblems and prepare him to contribute to the social life of his country.

A facultymember at Western since 1948, Dr. Pabst was an authority on the paleobotany of the PacificNorthwest and had done extensive research on the fossil plants in the Chuckanut formation. "Dr.Pabst was a real scholar," Dean Lorraine Powers said. "She had tremendous ability and a knowledge ofher field that was unique." Dr. Pabst devoted much time to her students and was interested inteaching science and science education. Her interests outside geology were numerous and she hadtaught classes in ornithology, conservation and outdoor education. "Her death was a terrific loss tothe College," said Miss Leona Sundquist, who was Miss Pabst's departmental chairman for 12 years."It would be impossible to find anyone else with a similar devotion to the students and their problemsin teaching science combined with a diversified knowledge of science arid a detailed knowledge as ascholar and B.

Thenew complex, which opened in fall quarter, houses 10 classrooms, three lecture halls, a languagelaboratory, 46 faculty offices and numerous seminar rooms. The building houses the departments ofEnglish, philosophy, foreign languages and history. All classrooms located on the ground floor haveoutside entrances, a unique feature on campus. The walls in all of them are paneled with wood strips.Upstairs, the carpeted faculty offices are offset, as are the hallways . around the perimeter of thebuilding. The center of the second floor houses the seminar rooms and language lab. An unusual aspectof the Humanities Building is the line of sun shades over the second- and third-story windows. The thirdfloor has been left unfinished, but will serve as more office seminar, and lecture hall space when it iscompleted. The two lecture halls stand side by side but apart from the main structure itself. They arejoined only by an overhead covering. The entire complex was designed by Architect Fred Bassetti.

It might have been during the Prohibition Years, maybe he was a veteran here on the GI Billafter World War II. Possibly he graduated, it would be in the records. If he taught, he might have secured a position down in Lewis County, or maybe he went down South and became principal of anelementary school in Alabama. We don't really know just what happened to Jeff, most of us don't care. ; Jeff and the girl he might have met here at Western and married after graduation are both forgottennow, along with the thousands of others who have walked through Old Main during the. past 70 years. ;How long will it be before 1963 is forgotten, and the names and the joys and the sadness all becomenumbers in a dusty registrar's file, or a diary tossed into the corner of an old attic? Will it be wrong toforget? No . . . Monday and Tuesday Western will celebrate the founding of the Belling-ham NormalSchool. Many of t he guest speakers will be recalling the great strides Western has taken since OldMain was built to educate educators. It will be a time when history will be set above the problems thatseem to crush the Jeff Smiths on Western's campus today. After Tuesday, Founders' Day will beforgotten for another year, perhaps all for the better. Many of us prefer the security of the past to theshadowy questions of the future. The favors from the big dance last year, the sports awards, and that "A" test paper all have a habit of surrounding us and holding us back from the challenges of the future, thenew discoveries, the new goals, and inevitably, the new and maturing mistakes. Western must shedthe impediments of the past in order to survive. Giant strides in construction must be doubled if she is to continue as one of the top education colleges in the United States. The buildings that are finished today must be considered as the possible sites for new buildings tomorrow. Perhaps we can take ah exampleon the eve of this Founders' Day, perhaps we too should shed the past as soon as it seems to weight us down, and live, not on what we have done, but what we can do.—Richard F.

Bradley in t hesummer of 1886, and by October of the same .year, 16 students were utilizing bare facilities in the old sawmill town of Lynden. . But the Whatcom Reveille started a campaign to have the TerritorialLegislature recognize the normal as a state institution. The mother of Lynden, Phoebe Judson,earnestly fought the recognition, but after Senator Thomas Page attempted to defeat the measure, theLegislature moved the Normal School to its present site in Bellingham. So students, go out to Lynden,famous for its outstanding printers, (The Collegian) and view Western's prototype campus. The building is still used for civic meetings.

Secretaries Advisor ---------- Collegian - 1963 February 15 - Page 5 ---------- FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 15, 1963 THE COLLEGIAN PAGE FIVE PhiIbsbphy At Western: A Modern ThePhilosophy Department at Western was established in 1960. The original department had two members, Dr. James Jarrett and Dr. Halldor Karason. Dr. Paul Hagensick joined the department in the fall of 1960and remained until the summer of 1962. * • * As the demand for courses in philosophy has grown,the department has increased its staff to meet them. In the fall of 1962, Dr. Stanley Daugert cameinto the department as chairman from Oglethorpe University in Georgia where he spent some 15 years in the Department of Philosophy and in the humanities. His doctorate is from Columbia University.Two other men joined the department with Dr. Daugert. A. Hugh Fleetwood, who is completing hiswork for the Ph. D. in philosophy at the University of Michigan, and Richard Purtill who, began hisgraduate work at the University of Chicago, did further work at the University of California at Los Angeles, and is completing his work for the Ph. D. at the University of Chicago As for the other members of. thedepartment, Dr: Kara^ori's de-: gr e e is from the University of Washington, and ©r. Jarrett's is from theUniversity of Michigan. Dr. Jarrett taught at the University of Utah for a number of years and was alsofor a time at Columbia University. * • * The department offers both a major and a minor in philosophyin the arts and sciences program of the college, and in teacher education. Students may elect a minor in philosophy if they are preparing to teach either the junior high school or senior high school level.NOT AN INNOVATION Even though philosophy is one of the newer departments at Western, philosophycourses are not a new innovation in the schedule. Philosophy courses have been offered as electivesfor many yeajrs. In the fall of 1946 Dr. Paul Woodring, then just returned from military service and nowdistinguished service professor of the college, offered a course in the introduction to philosophy. Hecontinued to offer that course at least once a year until 1956 when he obtained a leave of absence-fromthe college to serve as educational consultant to the Fund for the Advancement of Education. * * * . In the fall of 1951, Dr. Halldor Karason joined Dr. Woodring in the philosophy program and, in addition to the introduction to philosophy, offered a first course in ethics and beginning logic. These courses wereoffered each year with the administrative planning and scheduling being done through the Department ofEducation and Psychology. OFFICIAL CHANGE An official change in status occurred in the spring of1960 when the Department of Education and Psychology was re-organized into the Department ofEducation, the Department of Psychology, and the Department of Philosophy. * • • ThePhilosophy Department now offers a rather extensive program of courses designed both to fill the needsof those who wish to sample a course in philosophy as part of their general education, and to providetraining in philosophy for those who choose it as a major or a minor. In addition to the introduction tophiU osophy and the basic courses in logic and ethics, there is a sequence of courses in the historyof philosophy in which is exam- WESTERN'S building program goes up! up! up!

Seminars in special problems inphilosophy are offered periodically. This year two such seminars are scheduled, one on William James,offered by Dr. Daugert, and one on John Dewey, offered by Dr. Karason. • • • Some 200students elect philosophy courses each quarter. Six students have chosen philosophy as a major,and a considerable number have indicated a desire to minor in philosophy. A philosophy club wasorgainz-ed at the beginning of this academic year for the benefit of students wishing furtherexperience in dealing with philosophic iscues. The club, which usually meets monthly, is open toanyone on campus. SANDY AND VALE Shoe Repair Join Lucky "7" Club J COLLEGE DEMANDSGOOD i SOLES—KEEP THEM THAT WAY 117 W.

Their social lives revolved mostly around group activities such as athletics, literary clubs and Ed-ensHall. In the early days, there was no AWS to help orientate the new girls. The role was filled by theTJWCA who met the girls at the train and sent each new coed a small bouquet of flowers. - ¥ - - ¥•¥ ^The emphasis on literary societies resulted in the formation of six by December of 1899.Alkisiah was the successor of one of the first ones and maintained itself for more than four decades. In1917, the club put on Percy McKay's "Bird Sanctuary" on the campus knoll, now the bird sanctuary,among the fir trees. Its presentation helped to carry out one of the club's ideas' of making the Normalcampus a home for all birds. ¥ -¥- * -••• the scarcity of men was evident in the BSNSpublications. The girls were the ones winning One early mixer featured stunts, greetings from the dean of women, a reading from Kipling, two vocal solos, and an hour of games in the gym. The first "seniorgirls" sneak was held in 1916. They were about "80 strong,; gay and jolly" reported the Klipsun. Oh yes, plus 11 faculty members as chap-erones. They left campus at 5:30 for Toad Lake, hiked two miles in,held a big field meet and had breakfast. • • • -World War 1 hit and the Normal campus swunginto, war work. Classes in knitting, surgical dressing and war cooking were organized. A chapter ofthe Junior Red Crosss was established at the training school. The proceeds from club and classprojects were given to various war funds and at the series of wartime parties light refreshments wereserved instead of more elaborate fare .During this time the Sisters' League was formed of girls whosebrothers were in the service. COLONEL EDENS The first Edens Hall, dedicated ifillPiiiiiiiiil EDENSHALL has sponsored many traditions through the years, for example, freshman hours, Christmasbanquets, and house mothers. the letters and featured in the large sports sections in the Klipsun.Basketball was the most "popular sport and the. girls played/ modified boys rules. Each class, nomatter how small, had la team. There was a lot of spirit and the 1916 junior-senior championshipgame was played before a packed gym. . NORMAL MIXERS •; The Normal held student mixerstoo, but in the auditorium. after Colonel Edens, one of the first three board members, opened in 1908,housing 48 girls. It was noted that a favorite pastime of the girls was peeking through the screens intothe beau parlor when another girl was entertaining. Then as now, Edens girls were plagued with nightfire drills. I wonder if they had spectators at their outings too? * • * During the first few decades,Edens played an important social role in the women's lives. The dorm activities included hikes, slumberparties, dancing and theater parties. * They did have regular study hours, though, 7:30 to 9:30 everynight with lights out by 10. In 1921, the new Edens, "Home of Color and of Light" was opened. During the 20's the student mixers changed from stunts to dances. "FRANNIE" WILCOX In addition thestudents danced to sounds of "Frainnie" Wilcox's jazz orchestra at the weekly "Rec" hours. Every clubhad a yell, motto, and colors. Here is. a typical yell front* the studio art club. "Zipti miny gazully ga zum, ti ally ally, hoo! hoo! Art!" Go ahead, try that one out in the shower. * * • The women's league, laterchanged to AWS, was certainly inventive in the field of dance themes. One informal held at the HotelLeopold in '34 was titled "Dogs" and the Crystal Ballroom, was decorated accordingly. It was during the30's too, that Valkyrie was formed as a girls' pep club to promote spirit. Edens Hall held onto thetraditional Christmas banquet and the caroling through the halls in white with candles and into thedining hall. * • * The number of women's off-campus housing increased greatly and the influence ofthe living units on the social lives of the girls diminished. The 1940's brought World War II and as beforethe school rallied to do its share, many clubs working in connection with the Red Cross. AWS did itspart and later in the decade sponsored a French war orphan, Germaine. AWS, among other activities,held fashion shows, and started the big sister program and the AWS handbook during the '50's. The 60's are very young and the present women of Western are just beginning to make history.

Governor John H.McGraw on Feb.-24, 1893, signed House Bill "No. 66, which provided for the establishment of the StateNormal School'in Whatcom County that opened its doors to students on Sept. 6,1899. However, in thebeginning the College was limit-^ ed in function to the training of teachers for the, common schools.During this period also the college attracted students mainly from the locaL community and WhatcomCounty. Even its names were determined by the location: The new Whatcom Normal School of 1899became the Whatcom Normal School in 1901 and the Bell-ingham Normal School in 1903. Not until1937, four years after awarding the first degrees of Bachelor of Arts in Education, did the institutionacquire a name designating its rank and : function as a state college, that is, the Western WashingtonCollege of Education. In its 64th year, the College bears witness in physical plant, curriculum, faculty,and student body to a remarkable growth. From the central unit of Old Main the campus has expanded to the East, West, North, and South, on both sides of High Street, along Normal Drive to 21st Street andup Highland Drive.

'(Klipsun Photo) Half The School Turned Out Carver Recalls Early Days By Ray Osborne The year was1912, the man was Sam Carver* and the school was Bellingham Normal (Western). Carver, a youngman of 22, had come to assume the position of head coach of the Western athletic program. In the 42 years that followed this memorable occasion, Sam Carver built an athletic tradition that will foreverbe remembered in the history of Western. • • • For the first 10 years of his coaching career atWestern, Carver was the only coach at the institution. He assumed the responsibility of coachingall the major sports. Carver recalled the early days of his coaching career, with all their memories andthrills. "I remember during World War I when we didn't even have enough men to field a football team,"he said. "I had to help coach the high school basketball teams whose coaches had been called by thedraft," he added. For many years during the early part of Carver's career, he had to scrimmage one sideof the line against the other in football, because there weren't enough men turning out to make twoteams. The old field was out in front of the present day Campus School. The fans filled the stands tocheer on good ol' Bellingham Normal, as most of the male enrollment of the school donned the blueand white. • • • "We had. some pretty good teams in those days, and there was always a bigrivalry between BELLINGHAM NORMAL SCHOOL boasted some impressive athletic teams when theycould enlist enough players, find opponents other than local high schools, and arm wrestle the girls for{he courts. (Klipsun Photo) the three Normal Schools in the old Tri-Normal League," Carver recalled.Basketball at the Normal was considerably different from that game which the spectators see today. The rules, the gymnasiums, and the style of play are noticeably different. "The rules stated that a playercould only dribble the ball once before shooting or passing," Carver said. "The game was all defense in those days. The score would hardly ever be higher than 35 or 40," he added. ' , • • • • The Viks played most of their games in the old gym that used to be behind Old Main. The players referred to it as the "Crackerbox." This gym was so small that 10 men would be a capacity crowd. "We playedand practiced in the high school gym for many years," Carver commented. "The new gym (women'sgym) was opened in 1934," he added. Western was noted for its fine teams in track, tennis and golf inthe days of Sam Carver. He coached all of these sports for a time, and produced many winning teams.• * • "We won the conference golf title 11 times in a row from 1942 to 1953," Carver recalled. There have been many changes in the physical education program since those days in 1912. Many newcourses and sports have been added, and the co-ed classes are now being offered in the PE program.Many of these introductions can be attributed to Sam Carver, who was the chairman of the PhysicalEd. Department, until he retired in 1955. "I feel that Western has presented a very fine intramuralprogram for the students for a good many years," Carver commented. "This has been a key factor inthe development in the PE program at Western," he added. • • • Sam Carver, with the help ofmen like Charles Lappenbusch, the present athletic director at Western, and Dean C. W. McDonald,has built an athletic tradition that will always be present at Western. Sam Carver is the man of thehour in the athletic history of Western. The Sam Carver Gymnasium is the tribute paid to this man forthe efforts he put forth in the development of the, athletic program at Western. Western Upsets PacificLutheran By Ray Osborne Last weekend, Evergreen Conference basketball action produced twoupsets. The first came Friday night at Ellensburg, when the rangy Central Wildcats slipped past thedefense-minded Western Vikings 73-54. Saturday night saw an inspired Western team invade Tacomaand proceed to upset the league-leading Pacific Lutheran Knights 87-70. Western was fired up for their contest against the Lutes, as they forged into the lead early in the contest. The Viks' aggression onoffense kept the Knights on the short end of the score throughout the game. The score read 12-2 in theViking's favor at the end of the first period of play. The second quarter saw Pacific Lutheran tryingdesperately to catch, the hot-shooting Western hocpsters. The Viks held a 10- point advantage until late in the half, when the Lutes dumped in three quick buckets to close the halftime gap to 41-35. Thesuccess of the contest can be credited' to the fine efforts of j Bob Gilda. Gilda was a defensive standoutthroughout the evening as he held the Lutes' high-scoring forward Tom Whalen to two points in the firsthalf and seven points for the game. Big Bob tallied 13 points and pulled down 13 rebounds in hisoutstanding effort for Western. Western came out in the second half and continued to knock the Lutes'defense with a powerful offensive effort. Captain Jim Adams led the Viks' offense in the second stanza as he poured in 21 points.. The win at Tacoma left Western in second place in the EvergreenConference standings, and gained them a bye in the first round of the Evergreen ConferenceTournament to be held at the University of Puget Sound on Feb. 21.

Though the walls were bare and equipment sparse, students in grades one through eightmet in what was then referred to as "The Training Center." Back in 1899 as now, future teachersenthusiastically practiced their skills in the class room situation. The teaching center has since beenthe scene of many changes. It was moved to the south wing in 1903 and then to the east wing in 1914.With each move the center expanded. The major change came in 1942 when the children were movedinto the large Romanesque styled building which. is now known as the Campus School. Curriculum hasalso seen revision through the ytears. It began with gra'des one through eight. part of the program. Inthe early forties the junior high portion of the system was dropped, and a kindergarten was added.Grapplers Beat UBC Western walloped the University of British Columbia 33-4, under internationalwrestling rules, at Vancouver last Saturday.

BERNARD REGIER Bird Sanctumy lt;%ot1ln The Act Western Speech And Drama By LorenFinley The last decade has seen tremendous growth and change in our college in almost all areas.Drama at Western has also experienced a proportional growth. In the beginning, Western dramaconsisted of a show or two each year. Since the student body was small, the number of studentsparticipating was also small. The original auditorium was the site of the present AWS lounge, whichwas large enough for Western's small populace. According to ancient legend, a reception was heldduring the 20's for the governor in this room. After spending a few hours sandwiched in with severalhundred students, he decided that a new auditorium would be in order. An outstanding personality in Western stage was Victor Hoppe. He directed college productions from 1911 to 1951, and also servedas chairman of the speech department during that time. As the one and only faculty member workingin drama,, he was still hampered by lack of funds and facilities, but managed to produce manyexcellent ,?hows. During the 3 / s it became standard practice to have one auditorium show and one show in the "Blue Room," which was a social room occupying the third floor of Edens Hall. This offeredmore stage space than did the auditorium. It was at this time that Hoppe, for a chage of pace,attempted to do a Shakespearean play on the knoll in the bird sanctuary. The first act was well-attended, but the extreme cold drove people away before the play was over. The biggest boon toWestern Drama occurred in 1951, with the opening of the new auditorium. At last there was a largestage available, with adequate space and lighting. The first play in the new building was "The Merchantof Venice," which was performed in the foyer, using the steps leading up to the balcony. The speechdepartment now has Tempest Winners...Lap 1!

Bellingham Business Machines (next to Bon Marche) 1410Commercial RE 4-3630 From the beginning of the present century, the Industrial Arts Department atWestern Washington State College has developed from an elementary course in manual trainingcomposed of cardboard and paper construction, simple chip carving, and weaving on primitive looms,taught by Miss Ada Hogle in the quarters in Old Main now occupied by the Home EconomicsDepartment. In 1912 Miss Hogle went to Boston and arranged for the purchase of benches and toolsfor teaching the Sloyd System to augment her offerings to students. The 1902-03 catalogue of theBellingham State Normal states that additional work was being offered in "mechanical drawing, primaryconstruction, clay modeling, elements of woodwork and plain sawing," under Miss Hogle. • •• • ' In 1914 there was a distinct change to, the Russian manual training system when Andrew S.Gebaroff was added to the staff. Handiwork and freehand drawing were removed to the Art Departmentand taught by the Misses Hogle and Rhodes. The "manual training building was raised, set upon brickwalls giving two full stories and a basement... . . providing ample rooms for elementarywoodworking, advanced woodworking, forge work, mechanical drawing, printing, and small rooms forfinishing and storing." Charles R. Scudder, Freeman Chutz, John Edison (school printer) and John Rindal (school carpenter) were added to the staff in 1915. The old building still serves the cabinet shop andgrounds maintenance. Aside from changes in staff, courses continued about the same until 1925 whenthe department introduced Industrial Arts for primary, intermediate, and rural schools. Forging, sheetmetals, freehand perspective, pattern making and molding, were dropped. In 1926-27 the courseIndustrial Arts for junior high school was added. The staff then included Miss Theresa C. Gunther,chairman; John Rindal, and Herbert C. Ruckmick. Ruckmick's influence is indicated in the 1930- 31catalogue which reports the organization of a general-shop program to include woodworking,electricity, radio, photography, sheet metal and concrete work. The 1931-32 catalogue shows that MissGunther left and Miss Chra-lotte Richardson was employed. * * * . ;-:-;V'--v gt; ' The Industrial Arts staffregistered in the 1941-42 catalogue includes Herbert C.
