.Heigh, ho, everybody; heigh, ho! The top of the mornin' an' all that
sort of jolly rot, don'cha know! Boys and girls, I'm feelin' fit as a
fiddle this mornin'! It all goes to prove that love is a wonderful
thing—even if there is no good in men. FUTURISTIC TREND WDLL BE IN
EVIDENCE AS STUDENTS GATHER AT CLEVER DANCE. DEL SMITH CHAIRMAN What
would college be if there werer rib boys who could play banjos? One of my
happiest college memories will be of sitting around a room; parked on a
pillow, with the air so full of smoke that it could be sent home parcel
post, and some body playing a banjo and the rest of us harmonizing. The
capacity for good fellowship which is engendered by such sessions in
rooms on the third floor back, is one of the things which lasts long
after the knowledge of the glory which once was Greece has faded into the
dim recesses of an unused memory. College is a happy period of life, if
one will make it so. I'd rather be able to be happy than to have a long
face and understand three consecutive words of eight syllables each. So
I'll probably never amount to anything, but who cares? Is that dragon
showing any signs of becoming deceased, Ing? Last week I gave the Mens
Club special investigating committee a lot of questions to answer. I
wonder what it did with them. If the committee is still engaged in its
investigations of the nefarious or laudible (take your choice)
administration of the $2 quarterly health fee, it might also be referred
to the last copy of the governor's budget, which, under the detail of
Normal school expenditures, shows the president's estimate of receipts
from this' fund, and the requests made to the stale for health department
funds and for what purposes. This may shed a bit of authentic light on
the question which, may it ever be remembered, was raised for a point of
information only. Let me suggest thai a copy of the report of the
committee be given upon completion to The Viking for publication. Despite
the rapidity with which the discussion concerning it became extinct, it
is not a dead issue yet. CENSORED. If this colyum ever had a, policy,
one plank in the platform would be that no poetry was to be printed, but
if I write it (I mean the poetry), why of course that a girl in a
different— er, ah, fur coat. Also, to win the support of the
Women's Christian Temperance (why don't they call it Abstinence) Union, a
temperance lecture would go good here. This shows the baleful effects of
one glass of beer. (Sorry to steal your thunder, Mr. Greaves) Unlimited
pleasure is promised for all the freshmen and the sophomore boys who come
to the Freshman Futuristic Frolic at 8:30 tomorrow night in the big
gymnasium. Color Emphasized For the special benefit of the sophomore
girls and as the "next best thing" for those who are unable to attend the
party, the committee has arranged for trie darice music of Kibble's
Viking Pirate orchestra to go on the air over Bellingham KVOS from 10 to
11 p. m. Del Smith reports that all the plans have materialized as
expected and that the frosh party will be everything it has been "cracked
up" to be in the publicity it has already been given. ^ Color has been
blended in the most ultra-modern manner in the decorations as planned and
designed by Edith Jenkins. There will be literally miles of serpentine to
get tangled up in, and soft colored lights will be focused on the wall
and ceiling decorations. Punch and all colored cookies will be served for
refreshments. All students must have tickets to attend the dance. These
will be on sale on the main landing during the noon hour today. All who
have not paid their dues must do so before getting a ticket. Everyone is
urged to wear and display as much color in their clothes as they can.
Informal clothes are in order and fancy colored sweaters and dresses are
what the committee approves. Even loud neckties are not taboo. The
futuristic posters that have been on display in the main hall this week
were designed and drawn by Wynn Haws. The Board of Control held its
weekly meetifig Tuesday at 11 o'clock instead of Monday during the noon
period. The Boiird, discussed trie sending of a delegate to the Pacific
Northwestern Student Conference, to be held November 28 and 29 at Reed
College hi Portland. It was decided to refer the matter to the student
body. By a vote of the Boardj the regular weekly Monday meeting was
changed to Tuesday at 4 o'clock. Mary McDonald was chosen chairman or a
committee to plan the quarterly Board party. —'

'•[••h^C^. -'.V:'.; Miss Amy Hemingway Jones was the
guest of the International Relations club on Monday afternoon. The club
met at an informal tea in the Women's League club room. Miss Jones, who
is division assistant of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace
was here in the interest of the International Mind Alcoves, which have
been estab lished by the Endowment in the public library of this city.
The Carnegie Endowment have equipped one hundred and fifty-six libraries
in cities and towns in the United States with these International Mind
Alcoves. Their purpose is to aid readers in gaining a wider knowledge of
the peoples of the world and to "stimulate an international mind". The
books placed in these alcoves are chosen from the most recent
publications . that bear upon art, customs, the culture and the
government of foreign nations and peoples. Miss Jones is also executive
secretary of the international Relations clubs. At present she is
particularly interested in establishing International Relation clubs in
col leges and universities throughout the United States. The purpose of
these clubs is to unite thestudents of the world in "closer understanding
arid friendship. '.;;•, Members of our club who heard Miss Jones

s h^ Members of our ciub whp heard Miss Jones speak agreed that she
possessed a charming personality. Th^y; were greatly impressed with
her^aifc;^;^^^ Miss Mable Zoe Wilson, Miss Lillian George and Miss
Beatrice Doty are attending the meeting of the Northwestern District
Library Association, held at Renton, Washington, today. . The
certification of the school librarians, teachers taking care of school
libraries, and the county library law'will;-be discussed at this meeting.
Four Districts in Association The state of Washington is divided into
four districts, Northwest, Northeast, Southwest, and Southeast,
Bellingham is located in the Northwest district, which also includes the
following counties: King, Kitsap, San Juan, Skagit, Snohomish, and
Whatcom. Each district has a special library association, composed of
librarians who give their time to the study of school and public
libraries. County Library Law Miss Wilson States: "If the county library
law goes into effect it will be most beneficial to teachers. At present
there are no centralized book resources in the state and teachers run
into many difficulties in obtaining books for their schools. "There is
not one student in the Bellingham Normal school that will not be
confronted with the library problem during the first week spent at
school. "There are many things focusing right now, through this
association, in order to insure work facilities for future teachers."
Committee to Report During the past year, a committee was appointed to
make a survey of the library situations over the state. This committee is
to give its report at the meeting today and Miss Wilson says: "The re
suits of this investigation may be very illuminating.!' They will be
printed in next week's issue of The Viking. -o—' • . Second
of Concerts To Be Given Monday (Editorial) - Nearly three weeks ago from
gathering mists emerged a dreami train that had a tendency to travel
despite the ties, rails, wheels, and engine that were cast from weak
PROBABILITY metal. The track started from The Northwest Viking office arid
continued as far as the eye could ascertain in the direction of the Normal
of tomorrow. There was a dinky engine, an empty fuel car, a freight car,
and two day coaches. One of these criaches held the vision of a blue and
white clad 35 piece Normal pep band; the other was empty. The editor
jumped into the day coach, arid amid his lonely surroundings proceeded to
type eut an article calling for a band, and when he had finished he had
the fuel that barely started the train for soriie way off destination.
The whole trend of thought was to gradually build up a student band, under
the guidance of the music departriierit arid school officials. This
editorial appeared in the October 31 issue. The train was just coming to a
halt when Harold B. Srnith, of the music department arid leader of the
Bellingham Little Symphony, hopped aboard, donned an engineer's outfit,
arid brought the train up to the first station to wait for passengers.
Last year considerable interest was manifested in a pep band that was
initiated by students and carried through entirely by them. There was a
noted co-operation, individual dependability, and a desire to serve the
school with the best Peppers obtainable under the handicapped
circumstances, that afforded material for the present band hopes. There
are a number of facts to be found out before the plan can (Continued on

President-C.H.. Fisher, who has been absent from school for several
weeks, will be horrie Thanksgiving Day, according to word received by
Miss Roseanria McQuesten, his secretary. President Fisher will spend this
week-end at Washington, D. C, where he will attend the Child Health
Conference at the White House. This meeting was called by President
Herbert Hoover, who appointed a committee to investigate the problems of
child health.

furthered, and those under their. jurisdiction are asked to sign the paper
posted in The Viking office, immediately. It is necessary to find out: 1.
How many students are interested in founding the organization. (Men and
women.) 2. How many have had musical experience. "~~~~ 3. How many wish
to take up such work under faculty supervision. ( 4. How many instruments
are available. There are a number of phases and tangents, many of which
conflict, affiliated with the freight being carried by the dream train.
It is hoped that some plan ;can be devised to collect the necessary
instruments that will be lacking to start with. There may be some who are
interested that will purchase instruments, while far fetched hopes list
the possibility of a certain amount owned by the school. However,, when it
comes to the problem of financing, regardless of the purchasing of
instruments, the band may strike an insurmountable obstacle. ' Paul J.
Lusterman, faculty teacher of band music, is being figured in as an.aide
to Smith. There is some question, though, as to how this will fit into the
faculty requirements and work. Mr. Smith stated this week: "I hope that
some means will be devised to find out if there is enough interest
concerned to put the proposition to President Fisher when he returns. I
will give all the help I can, and am hoping that an organization can be
started this winter quarter." It is planned to start the band now and
gradually build it up, within a few years, to being the pride of Normal
school activities. There is one point with the band, that being that the
three year requirements will give the instructor time to train the
inexperienced. . In all probability a class credit will be given, and the
practices will be held during a regular required period. It is up to the
students to turn the PROBABLE into the REAL. It is being fostered by The
Viking and Smith, solely because it is a worthy item that will ultimately
be necessary when the school has reached the peak of its endeavors to make
this one of the leading educational institutions of the country. This is
one of the most constructive measures that have been put before the
students in some time. It is for their benefit, as well as their
posterity. It is something for them to work out and call their own, yet
they will receive strong support from the necessary faculty if they show
the proper attitude and spirit. The whole issue now depends on its start
from the students. If nothing is done immediately, the whole dream train
will be taken off the run and the tracks torn up without further
publicity. NO BRIBES . Once again the Sophomore class at the University
of Washington lias started a contest to determine the man with the
championship beard. In fact, there will be several champs, as there are
various divisions within the race for the different beards raised. The
contest will last a month and will end November 25.' On the final day the
contestants will line up before a committee of co-eds who will pick the
winners. This will be one contest where pergonal favoritism won't affect
the judges' decisions, as it is a known fact that the pretty co-eds will
be unable to recognize the relief map that lies beneath the bearded
forests. And, what's more, we assure any girls dancing with the men
competing that tweezers are the best remedy. Exactly at 6:55:10 o'clock
the receiver was taken; from the hoo^ on the telephone in the offices of
The Northwest Viking office Monday evening, and the new night service
was inaugurated. Heretofore The Viking room has not been plugged into any
of the four trunk lines used after five in the evening. After several
attempts to have these connections made, a. lineman arrived on the scene
Monday morning and the work was soon completed on the most used night
phone in the main building. The crowds milled about the press rooms on
the second floor, inside of which were the paper officials. Eddie Serwalt
placed the first call at exactly 6:55 and ten seconds later he was
talking to Kate Cerrocki The Viking co-ed. chosen to be on the other end
of the dedication. The sound was picked tip by'a "mike" and relayed to
the crowds outside. The conversation, which was started from The Viking
office", was Carried on as follows: "Hello, can you hear me?" "Yes,
quite plain." . • __ "Well, I can hear you, too." "The Viking is
certainly to be complimented on its new service, and the workmen should
be commended for their great accomplishment in making this achievement
possible." "Goodbye." "Goodbye." Student Conference At Portland College
It has not as yet been decided whether or not our school will send a
delegation to the Students' International Conference at Reed's College,
Portland. Quentin Quick, student body president, stated that the question
would probably be decided in today's assembly. If a delegation is sent,
it will be chosen 'either by a^ faculty committee or by the International
Relations Club. Probably two students will make up the delegation. Miss
Amy Hemingway Jones, who was a guest of the International Relations Club
on Monday after noon, is to be one of the speakers at the conference.
The purpose of the conference is to increase interest in the study of
international questions. Problems arising out of conditions in the
countries in the Pacific area will especially interest the conference.
Last Tuesday in assembly we; /Were celebrating P^eafe. We looked
expectantly toward The day when wa^rs will cease,rf Then we swallowed up
"The Cop- -:, ,perhead" Like a flock of hungry geese. The Dean pro tern
enjoined us to Intelligent consideration. She hinted that we held the key
To international salvation; That we must think and not emote, And
advocated toleration. Our Normal audience, we're told, • I s t
quite sophisticated. Our minds. have made us hooey-proof, Our feelings
armor-plated. We are the upper five per cent, We are the EDUCATED. There
rose before this great array Of gems, of mental rubies, An actor skilled
in swaying crowds With wild dramatic hooeys; We acted like the foremost
row At ten-cent, Western movies. I grieve to see the students as They
fall before the glamour Of some appeal emotional; I hate to see them
clamor For stuff which won't provoke a thought, And gooey
"mellerdrammer^" The Training School assembly was Also on Tuesday's
bills. They gave a war-prevention skit Which hadn't any frills. ' The
kids got food for thought, but we. Got nationalistic thrills. Oh, why do
we, the 'fore ordained, The Mental Aristocracy, The Intellectual
Uppercrust, Of this here now Democracy, y Embrace with such moronic zest
This super-sold hypocrisy. This spirit is the same one which Has kept the
trenches f ulL It makes it simple thus to keep Their eyes beneath the
wool. Oh, heaven help us with our schools In hands so gullible. Such
actions you might well expect From brainless, dumb carousers; But watch
our A and B—I. Q.'s, Be they in skirts or trousers, They'll sway
like aspen trees before These skillful "rabble-rousers." I sigh to see
such genius gripped By patriotic thermo-tension. "In education lies our
hope," But- this is my sincere contention That such reactions look .to me
Decidedly like Peace-Prevention. U.OFW. SPONSORS The~ University of
Washington is sponsoring an essay contest in order to arouse widespread
interest in Simon Bolivar, the great South American statesman and
patriot. It is believed that more should be known about this great
liberator of half a continent. On rfecember 17, 'the hundredth
anniversary of the death of Simon Bolivar will be commemorated.
••'.;. s'rHO'iq.^ The subject of the'essay must have some
bearing l%ijpn the life, character, or achievements of Simon Bolivar as
statesman, soldier, orator, and patriot, or the significance of his many
activities ih: the history of the New World. ' 'Vl : -All essays
submitted mustvbe typewritten and in/the hands of the committee b y
December 1. The papersvmay either be written in Spanish or English. The
length of the essay should be from 2000 to 2500 words. All Normal
students are eligible to the contest. Medals and other prizes have been
solieited from various Spanish- American governments and historical
societies. • The Spanish essays will be read by three distinguished
Spanish- Americans; those in English will be judged by committees of
instructors of history and, languages. .• gt; LIBRARY RECREATION
Two bookcases in the library have been set aside in the general reading
room, near the door, for recreational reading. This is a new policy and
will be permanent from now on. Miss Mable Zoe Wilson wishes the students
to watch these bookcases and notify the reference librarian of any books
they would like to read. These books are placed here for recreational
reading only, because the librarian considers'^ that "All work and no
play" is a bad policy. . 0" "••'•'• -'.- IOC WHY

schedule for this; year. A win would mean a triple tie for the Normal
championship. wsragimm We should be proud of the show-ihg our team made
a week ago in the Tacoma stadium, when they tied the College of Puget
Sound 0-0. Most of the so-called football critics from the base of Sehome
predicted a 20-0 score, but they figured without reckoning with the new
fight the boys seem to have acquired lately. G. P. S. was beaten by the
university team 60-0. That makes us only sixty points lower than Jimmie
Phelan's first Washington team. Now, wasn't that a startling con elusion?
BY VIKING SQUAD OPPONENTS A R E SURPRISED BY NORMALITE STRENGTH.^ LINE
HOLDS WELL After the game Saturday, football will be put on the shelf in
this school for another season, and a lot of boys will have to think up
another excuse for not getting their lessons. Oh, well, basket ball is
right in the wind now, but, after all, is there any sport as grand as dear
old football? - I wonder if Dutch Wilder will be back for his eighth
year of student coaching next year? The first cut in basket ball left
only seventeen men out of the thirty- eight that answered the first call.
Sam, is still looking for material though, and invites every man in
school to take a try at it. Looking over the list that survived the cut,
I saw names of high school stars and a few veterans from last year's
squad. The men now out and the football men that will turn out next week
are having friendly quarrels concerning "How the strong football men will
strengthen up the squad." Well, we shall see. "Every man in school on
some team of basket ball," is the motto adopted by gt;\~ the Athletic
Council, and an intramural schedule is to be drawn up to find the
champions of the school. Several teams have already shown their intention
of joining the league. Among them are teams from the Kitchen Krew, Men's
Club, Thespians', Vanadis Bragi, Alley Cats; Co-ops, Philos, and several
of the boys' halls. That is a good start, but more are wanted. If you are
not on one, organize one yourself and let Carver know about it, and he
will tell you when you can use. the gym' to practice. Isn't that—
a swell black eye Bill Thompson is sporting—a. beaner of a shoe
brush on Les Vdris' Up—too bad that Fairhaven lost the Armistice
game --too bad that they are still hollering about the right of the
score-too bad that so many of the Normal students lost money on the
game— terrible that the editor of this column, can't find news
enough to fill the line. Lastf ^Saturday a fighting Blue and -White team
tied the powerful C/P. S. gridders 0-0. It was a hard fought game with
the Vikings given no chance with the big Red and White team. The Vikings,
however, gave C. P. S. the scare of the season. The game started with the
locals kicking off. Shelton made a beautiful kick deep into the
opponents' territory. Baker, star Sound fullback, received the ball back
of his own goal and was just nicely under way when Moultray, a Blue and
White tackle, nailed him, putting the ball on Tacoma's ten yard line.
Weicking, College quarter, confident his team could advance, called three
plays before he kicked. The Vikings were playing hard football from the
opening gun. On the fourth down they kicked to Brinkman, Vik ing safety,
who received the ball on the 40 yard line, returning it to the 30. Then
the first Viking invasion got under way. Pldwers and Iverson crashed over
tackle for several gains, advancing the bail to the 10 yard line. Here
the Red and White de fense stiffened and they fought bravely and stopped
a Normal score by inches. The ball then changed hands. C. P. S. kicked
out of danger, but Brinkman couldn't handle the punt, which was finally
grounded on the Normal's 30 yard line. The Blue and White again started f
or. a touchdown, but without success. The first quarter ended with the
ball in the Red and White team's territory, where it had been most of the
time. The second quarter was characterized by a brilliant Puget Sound
offensive and stubborn Viking de fense. The Normal forward wall, with its
back to the goal, fought like mad and succeeded in holding for three
downs, putting the ball a few inches from a touchdown. The C. P. S.
quarter called his powerful fullback, Baker, to drive over the locals^
line. He was stopped in mid-air by the stubborn Viking line and C. P. S.
failed to score. Normal kicked out of danger and the rest of the first
half was a see-saw affair. The second half started with the Vikings
receiving. Early in this period the Normal again threatened to score,
only to have its hopes shattered by the stubborn defense of their
opponents. At the beginning of the fourth quarter both teams began to
open up. C. P. S. sent a barrage of passes into the Viking defense. Two
ten yard passes were completed before Hopkins, Normal center, intercepted
one to stop the rally; The Normal's last drive promptly started, with
Iverson, Flowers and Wilder advancing the ball to the seven yard line.
Here the Vikings were again stopped. It was late in the game when

— ARMISTICE SOCCER Playing the game that decided the superiority
of the. sexes in soccer, the women's team defeated the*, boys of the
(training school by a, score of 6-0, Tuesday noon. With the addition of
the best players that it could muster, the women's team was considerably
stronger in this game. Coaches Dixon and Carboneau used up all reserves
in an attempt to stem the tide of Blue and White that swept down the
field for goals. But, with Flo Goodman, Bernice Gnagey, and Sig-red
Wiberg in the forward line, the boys were powerless to aid in any way. 0
