Gay competed against two othercontestants for the position of editor. He is a'Korean vet who has been copy boy arid reporter on theTacoma News-Tribune, and sole reporter on a small paper which came out in Tacoma while the Tribune was on strike. He is Writer editor this quarter, has been co-sports editor and news editor of theCollegian, and was the editor of his high school paper. Because he is an accelerated student, Gaywill hold junior status at the end of fall quarter. Since none of the candidates met the requirements asstated in the Stylebook of the Collegian, they were waived in all cases and the Board's decision wasmade on qualifications for the job alone. Gay is married and expecting a tax deduction next fall.'Hecompeted with Colleen Sullivan and Jim Simon for the editor's position. Seelye is a second quarterfreshman and was assistant business manager and ad solicitor last quarter for the Collegian. Shewill-be married this summer and will return next fall while her future husband is in the service. Board Has Problem: To Cut Budget Despite High Prices Budget slashing is the current problem of variousdepartments of Western Washington College. Most departments are requesting more money'•• for gt; the gt; 1953-54 school year as compared to 1952. The reason lies in the higher cost of living andthe, rise of prices. Original budget requests submitted to Mark Hardie, ASB president, have alreadybeen cut by the respective departments. However, more cutting is on the agenda. Members of thebudget committee and the! Board of Control met last night to study the tentative budget plan. The Boardof Control will meet to work on the budget at 4 p. m. next Thursday. Hardie said, "It is hoped the-Department of Directors will approve the budget when work on it is complete. We plan to have it ready by the end of spring quarter."

This has been due, chiefly, to the discovery by certaincongressional committees, that a few educators were proyen, or suspected to be, subversive now, orsubversive gt;t one time This has caused near panic on some, campuses in the. country. A case iseven oh record of one educator refusing an invitation of an organization which has been designated by thegovernment as definitely not subversive. r This could be construed as an indictment against education.That it is subversive? No! That it might be losing its intestinal fortitude! Since ancient Greece, educatorshave stood up f lt;fr what they believed. Socrates drank poison rather than recant his beliefs. We do notsay that it is good to have educatprs who might undermine our democratic system We do say, however,the students of Western Washington cpllege, many of whom will be educators, should resolve that fear will not intimidate us. The cradle of democracy and the custodian of free thought and speech in manycountries were the colleges and universities. In the middle ages educators had no guarantee that theycould say what they wished with impunity. By the panic evidenced of late this seems to be what someeducators believe should be the case.' ";' }. ;. But today, it is not his right, it is; not his privilege, it is theeducator's duty to give his views; to say what he thinks is right. In this way will he be serving his countrybest. Education must5 be dynamic. To be static is to retrogress. If educators hYde their candle ofthought under a basket, afraid someone might see a "color" in it, a great deal will be lost, for, aseducation progresses, so will the country.'..-, \ Today's college students are tomorrow's leaders" is acommon thought. But if these students are instructed by persons who are afraid~to lead, afraid to voice their convictions, what will their quality of leadership be?—D. G. * Mailbag:Letters to the Editor DiaryRevelations Indicate Campus Day To Be Bewildering to One Coed! Dear Diary: ' Today was Campusday. While sleepily crawling into ''the- old jalopy I could see the sun just coming up over the mountains;It. was -then that I began wondering how Homer had ever convinced me to get up so early for Campusday. Well, there was no use .thinking about it then ^-we were on our way to Whatcom Falls park. •The Skit assembly wasn't sched-iried 'til at least after the sun had come up, but Homer said it would bebetter if we went straight to the park before everyone^ got there. So Spies skipped ' t b0 assembly to;get: out to. JheApa*k,Jfcef lt;jre reyerypne , else. (But I LDiErtne park when people are there.) , - .,:cArriving.- at, t h e ^ a r k we .found it absolutely .deserted, arid. ,, stayed -that \vay.,,for;ise;yera^;hqurssi Finally our friends began ...to .arrive. Coming in,,convertibles, Model. T's, and , onbicycles, they swarmed into the park. Sam and Al wer^ straggling 'wayv behind .the. rest, because jtheyhad decided, to ;W;alk L . ..; :- ^ The morning slipped by andT it was soon, time for lunch. Lunch—everyone was famished! Like a swarm; of locusts t h e y devoured everything in sight. ' After lunch thegames began, starting naturally with the pie eating contest. "Uncle Harry" made his first appearancesince the day he broke his leg at the Homecoming game, and ate more pies than the entire' faculty.During the faculty-student tug-of^- war, Al and Sam finally arrived on the scene. Every one was soexcited to see them that the tug-of - war was completely forgotten. The crowd cheered the two fellowswho came straggling in. I was cheering especially because both played on our baseball team. At lastthe game started. Roger was first at bat. With power like that we easily won the game. Homer said that I was playing very well, but somebody hit the ball to me and things got all fouled up. It WAS unfair ofGeorge to hit it to me— he KNOWS I can't catch. Ah! Campus day ended happily. The students andfaculty hopped into their cars, trucks, wheelbarrows and other means of transportation, and headedfor home. Sam and Al trudged wearily along Lake-way, and Homer and I pushed the eld buggy down thehill, got it started, and chugged noisily back, to Western. • WESTERN WASHINGTONCOLLEGIAN f ' H t '' gt;,.*". i[J {" i ?d ' ^ '*) " "Since 1899 Member Intercollegiate Press Entered assecond class matter at the post office at Bellingham by virtue of the act of Match 8, 1879. :": Printed; byCox Brothers,.

The election, fiasco of last quarter isstill fresh in our minds and there are minor violations which go unheede'd by the student body in general. I have run across several of these. It is more than a possibility that myriads of them have gone pastwithout detection. The question that comes to the forefront is—"Why?". It is a dynamic questionwhich demands a positive answer and not merely some "explaining away." Is it due to the ineptitude ofour elected representatives— the Board of Control, the president, the vice president? It is my beliefthat we can contribute some of the guilt to' these representatives. They, are not impeccable. ButTfurther assert-that there is a greater weakness, than mere ineptitude on the part of these officers. Thoseof you familiar with government can see it clearly. We aspire to democratic govern^ ment, yet in ourgovernmental .organization here at Western we have branches of government equivalent to our national legislative and executive branches, but where is that third branch so essential to the balance of power and the continual function of a democratic government —the judicial branch? We have no such branch, yet the need is a crying need. A manifest need. The past is not a dead past and will not bury itself. Itwill project itself into the future. To obliterate the occurence of last quarter, and the many unheededviolations, I propose that we take into our hands the tools of state and build that branch we lackhere—the judicial branch. For the sake of a continual functioning democratic government, therequired balance of power, and emulation of the state in which we live, serve, and are, I beseech you to join in a crusade for that missing wheel of government—the judicial branch. Sincerely, GEORGE H.COLE. Perhaps the answer lies in the in-maturity of people who make that assumption. Sincerely,JEAN LANDAHL.

This negligence has necessitated continual reminders that if students desire to sit on the grass they may do so in a small area just north of the main building.

AWSDefer Picnic It was announced today that the AWS commission picnic which was originally scheduledfor Monday, May 18, has been postponed and no definite date has been set for the picnic. ! ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1953 May 15 - Page 4 ---------- 9 torn By ROGER GROVDAHL Last week on one of the sunshiny days, many students were out tryingout the new game of wisket. This new game was being demonstrated for the first time on- Western'scampus. The game originated in Seattle and several leagues are springing up for wisket players. It isplayed with a baseball and bat but there, the': similarity to the original diamond game ends. Instead ofgloves the fields; use long tennis-like contraptions or wiskets as they are called. The rules are totallydifferent also. The defensive team makes all the points. The whole team, 10 men, bat around and thedefensive-team scores points. A point is obtained when a base is touched 4n gt; front of the runner. Thegame is 'an entirely new idea originating in Seattle. Many main colleges are incorporati n g ^ ;mtheirtPE curriculum: ~~ * . . . - . . « - . . * • • During, winter quarter there was an gt;all-^tarintramural vs. the Jayvee basketball game.vand-the game aroused much interest and comment. Although it would--be somewhat -more difficult, it would be interesting to have the-best-intramural.tplayersiteam:upto play the local baseball second teamers. Some, arrangements, may- be reached by having threeinnings :of-fastball played and„ then three innings of baseball, or a coin could be fUpped to-see,what type-of game would be played. Another interesting game should, ibe the one between the students and faculty on Campus day. ^Thegamevia an_ annual affair and from past experience affords a fittingclimax-to Campus day activities. * * . * .-r j, ... .

With, the season record justmediocre at best, WWC will be out.to -r-——— — ————{-take some games to better the searson record. College of Puget Sound; aoes not have a very strong, team, this-year, although it is not apush over. It has played some good ball this season. In the previous meeting with CPS Western tookone close one and dropped another. Western's Vikings should pick up another win tomorrow when theytake on the UW. The University is weak this year, being near the bottom of the standing in its league.It has been beaten several times by teams that Western has beaten. In previous meetings this year,Western has nearly an even record with the Huskies. These two straight games will put a strain on Vik pitchers. It is probable that all chuckers will get a chance. Big Bob Hansen is ready to go again afterthe sore arm he picked up in a game a couple of weeks ago. Next Monday the hot flyers from Larson Air Force base, Moses Lake, invade the Vik's domain for two games. The boys from Larson always putout a good ball team which can give any college team a fight; After Western gets by the busy weekendschedule, it will settle down to a slower pace for the rest of the season. Western Drops Track MeeF To Savages Western Washington dropped its first important track meet to the Eastern WashingtonSavages last Saturday. The meet was held at Cheney on the EWC campus. The Savages racked up84% points to Western's 46% points. Big gun in the attack of EWC was Ron Chadwick who won a totalof five events in the meet. These events were the high jump, broad jump, javelin throw and both thehurdles. Western was a little off and.the main point getters were meeting very stiff competition. The winfor Eastern was its 33rd successive dual meet win. Ken Swalwell, Modris Pederson, and miler JerrySwan picked up a lot of Western's 46% points.

'Straight Line: r HilsRuliinct Although football seems to be far away, on the. little campus,of WWC, many of theJarger-colleges are now concerned with-spring lootball practice. An. extra worry: to -the -coaches now '-. is .the new- substitution rule. This rule makesit quite impossible to use the two platoon system. Viking.,football coach/ Chuck Lappenbusch, was asked- tov comment on. the new rule: and- how it wouldaffect small. colleges,, mainly Western. First he stated.that the small colleges with no springpractices will be handicapped by this new rule, making it necessary for players to *playi both* offenseand defense* He went on gt; to ^ say that underthe modern educational pbil*-* osophy players will have to learn all the offensive parts. This may require longer training tables f or longer -periods -of time.However,- Lappenbusch went on to say,. • small .colleges using t he Straight- Line defense philosophy will not be .bothered, by the. knowK edge factor and the physical condition must be drilled onpreviously by the- player on his own. Since knowledge and intelligence does not play the sameimportant'part as it did formerly;-the Straight Line teams will be.ready in a week-providingthephysicali«ondition^ isex-. cellent. Physical condition is not and win not be excellent which will slowdown the game under the new rales; According to Lappy, physical endurance in U.S. society isretrogressing because of the automobiles, the preservatives in, onr foods, ,aad«th,e psychology, ofthe "easy-way-to-win" attitude. "If we are to continue to be the strongest of nations we must-work onimproving the whole human being in our schools andaiot just knowledge, and. intelligence which are now retarded' by circular^ confusion,'' he said. So here we have the views of a very authoritative person,Western's own athletic director, on.the effects and: results of the. new substitution rule. Out of all this itseems that Western -will not^be?bothered lt; lt;as much as some other small schools who do-not usethe Straight Line philosophy. | This week a boy with a very interesting background- was interviewed as sports personality. Modris (Pete) Peterson, Western's star track man; graduated from a Latvian highschool in Europe.. There was no track, at his high school so he ran for the local YMCA team. Therewere a junior and senior team and Pete took' several awards in the junior division. In the junior division he holds the hop, skip, and jump record, high hurdles record, and the 12 pound shot put record. Forwinning the high hurdles he was given an award which he holds aa one of his most prized possessions.He holds three unofficial Latvian records, 220 low hurdles, 220 high hurdles, and the 440 hurdles. Lastfall in Seattle he won a • cup In -the big northwest meet held therewith so many incidents in his life, Modris had a tough time pieking lt;the: top thrill • of his- life.: He finally, picked the time when hewon the low^hurdles in the Evergreen conference in 1951. Another of his big lt;- gest thrills came lastweek as Western broke the relay record for the school and won t h e cup.^ Western track will verydecidedly miss good natured Pete when he is graduated. He has been a mainstay on Western's trackand field team for several years. He has won three letters and already has enough points for his big "W"blanket. During his years in track Modris has run the low hurdles; 440 hurdles, 100'yard dash; 220 yarddash, 440 yard dash; broad jump, "and thrown the discus and. shot gt;put. His versatility in sportsshows he is a natural athlete. In his years here he has lost the 440 only twice and the low hurdles nnlythree times. This trait seems to run in the family.

He left Latvia when theRussians* entered because he did hot want to be under Russian dominance. He is majoring in biological science and- teacher education. In Protest It was announced-; by school officials that eight members on: the; staff of EWC's physical education department say they will resign if the athletic director i sretained. The action taken, is against W. B. Reese. All those involved delivered their Qualified letter ofresignation ta the college board of directors meeting held Saturday. At the same time an 84-pagereport having to do with Reese's standing as a student in the graduate school at Eastern waspresented to the board. J. Harold Anderson, .chairman of the board, declined to say if there wasany relation between the two events. - Nearly all the physical education department signed the letter of qualified- resignation. The letter gave no reason-for the action. Included among the faculty membersinvolved was Eastern's head football- coach Abe Poffenroth. Reese made no comment on the incident. / ".- ' — — O BUSY-SIGNAL The whole world loves a lover, We think they're all divine, But not whenwe discover One on our party linel --Catherine E. Berry.

Durkin, Secretary of Labor for the U. S., has reached Western outlining • ;varlous jobopportunities for graduating college students. Twelve fields were outlined which need new persons,and which would need college graduates during most of the 195CS. - Secretary Durkin said that there-is a significant shortage of engineers, while the number of engineering graduates has b e e n becomingsmaller. The natural sciences, chemistry, physics, and " the earth sciences, geology, geophysics,meteorology, oceanography, have also jumped sharply in demand for not only experienced people, but also college graduates with just a BA. In describing teaching, Durkin VISION COMFORT DR.INGWERSEN and DR. RITCHIE 207Jfr E. Holly / said that the "demand for elementary schoolteachers is greater for 1953-54 than for 1952-53," while "at the high school level the supply of newlytrained teachers has dropped significantly each year since 1950." The secretary said also that theaverage salary over the United States for all classroom teachers was $3,400. The other fields SecretaryDurkin described as having many openings were as follows: federal civil service, health' professions,business and law^ banking, accounting, and social work.

WWC picked up a lot more points by winning the relay race. The time of this race, broke theschool record' for relay races. Other Western performers piled up points with seconds in some events toget Western a tie for first place. Vik miler, Jerry-: Swan, took second place in the two mile race againstsome tough competition. ' One man entered the meet as an independent and startled many bypicking up more points by himself than several teams entered in the race. This man. was the great trackstar, Reverend Bob Richards.

It was stated that the second chance came after the card.playing had been removed a few months ago when the gameswere being used for' other than recreational purposes. Editor and business manager for the WWCollegian in 1953-54 were elected at the Board meeting. Dave* Gay and Mildred Seelye, respective' ly, were those so designated. (See story page one.) Since no candidates were eligible in the strict sense of theStyle book, the Board moved to waive the requirements in this case so that the positions could be filledfor next year. The letter to the editor appearing in last week's Collegian about book conditions in theStudents' Coop was given heated consideration. A committee composed of Bob Porter, CarolynCrook, Dick Stewart, Howard Critchfield, and one other Student Facilities committee member wasappointed to form policies concerning the ordering and buying back of books. The Board passed amotion to the effect that all Co-op and Lounge personnel who handled food were to be required to take aphysical examination in accordance with the State Board of Health regulations. .The expense forstudents involved will be borne by the Student Lounge fund. A note from Louis Earle, Lounge and Co-opmanager, was read thanking the Board for the ceramic ash try sent to him while he was ill. A requestwas received through the Music department to loan the white dinner jackets for a wedding. The Boardstated that it was not its policy to loan student property for private use. An additional $10 was added tothe $45 appropriated to the Evergreen conference trip to cover expenses, to come from theAdministration budget. It was found that the original $45 did not cover the entire costs. Coach ChuckLappenbusch requested that the Board give him the okay to try to get Willamette UniversitySeptember 26, 1953, for a football game with Western here. He stated that arrangements with UBC andothers would have to be made, but the Board approved the basic plan. Since the regular Board meetingwas scheduled for the afternoon of Campus day, the Board moved to postpone the meeting untilThursday at 4 p. m. Board members were also urged to attend the Budget meeting last night.EarlCompletes Naval School George S. Earl, Seattle, graduated from U. S. Naval school (OCS)Newport, Rhode Island, April 20.

There will be no over balance of musicians next year," stated Dodsworth. Fugue By E. S. LAIRD Solemnly he spoke of the great musician In terms of fugues andmighty phrases. We lay in clouded mood And sang of lofty trees without tops That upheld the edges ofthe sky. As the ponderous notes clamored forth We thumped our feet, and "They remind me of goats,",he said. The notes came bleating forth together As they scattered dotting white over the hill. "Mightygoats they are, pushing stones With their heads, pushing stones and, "^ Rolling mountains to, theedges of the world." We lay in silence and listened to the peaks Crashing in dark stillness. FacultyKeeps Contact Of First-year Tutors An effort on the.part of the faculty of Western Washington College to keep effective contact with all first year teachers is proving successful. The program started with theestablishment of the General Certificate pian in 1951-52. The visitation program became fully establishedin 1952- 53 when essentially all graduates began their teaching with the Provisional General Certificate. 4»-—-—— The visits made to t h e graduates of Western Washington college during fall andspring of. 1953 by faculty members had the following purposes: (1) To make possible a first-handstudy of the effectiveness of the teacher education program as reflected in the work of WWC graduates.(2) To stimulate graduates to make a study of their work during this year with, an eye to improvement. (3) To assist the provisional cer-: tificate people in effective planning of their fifth year of college workwhich needs to fee started, as a basis for renewal "of:vtheir provisional certificate. . lt;4) To maintain acontinuing rapport with graduates and assure them of Western's interest in their success and thedesire to be helpful when needed. (5) To maintain a continuing contact" with public schooladministrators and teachers and to assure them of the institution's interest in the success of publiceducation in the state.of Washington. Forty-five faculty members visited a total of 16(5. beginningteachers. However, a total of 476 persons were seen on the twenty-four trips made to sixteen counties.First year teachers are working in school buildings that run the gamut of possible conditions, according to a report just issued. Some are teaching in practically ideal situations, some in buildings that aredescribed as ordinary and average, and some are in buildings considered to be fire traps, barren, smelly, dirty and crowded. More places have inadequate materials than adequate housing. Most availableinstructional supplies are those classified as audio-visual aids. Least available are art materials, textbooks, music, and maps. The enrollment per room ranges from 18 to 52. Some kindergarten teachershave three shifts and as many as 83 children. At least 25 of the WWC teachers have split rooms orcombination grades. The management of children, how to handle delinquent children, and how to keepchildren quiet, were frequently mentioned by beginning teachers from first grade through junior highschool and in both rural and city schools. The use of the Parent-Teacher conference as a means ofreporting to parents was mentioned most often, but requests for help on the whole matter of parent-teacher relationships were listed. Cooperative principals and teachers were named by teachers asthe SHIRTS IN AT 9 OUT AT 4 Complete Laundry and Cleaning Service 205 Prospect Street Phone 66 or 67 chief source of their in-service assistance. A few teachers remarked that they had received littleor no help. Some principals stated that they had given suggestions to help the teachers but that thesuggestions were not taken by them. Between one-third and one-half of the beginning teachersremarked that their college preparation had been good, that their training was adequate, and that most of the problems" encountered on the job could not have been answered at the pre-service level.

He bedecked it with soft rolling^ pairiles and pillared it with thundering mountains. He studded it with flowing fountains,-and encompassed : it with long winding streams.

Born in Frankfort, Kentucky, Miss Carter has been singing since she was four, and when she was thirteen, she took up music as a career. Studying in New York under Oscar Seagle and later with Nadia Boulanger, she has sung with many oratorio societies and in concert.

Remedial Meet Big Success The conference on the Education of Exceptional Children, which was held here last Thursday and Friday, July 6 and 7, was well attended by college students and educators, from off the campus. The conference was sponsored by the state department in cooperation with the college. Those who attended report that it was all very interesting and decidedly worth-while. At 10 o'clock on the first day, President Haggard gave the address of welcome, followed by the singing of the National anthem, led by Don Bushell., Miss Emma Erickson gave a" brief overview of the conference. Mr. E. L. Lindman of the state department told of the individual differences in children. Mrs. Beryl Bruff of Lowell School accepted the challenge for the schools of the state of Washington. Then followed a symposium on special service agencies and departments which are ready to help the schools: Mr. W. H. Dutton gave a summary of the morning session. Miss Erickson adjourned the meeting to go to Edens Hall for luncheon.

''"'" " Much Needed Staff Directory Board Under Construction Do you know where to find the office of your history teacher? If a visitor asked you, could you direct him to librarian's office or the office of the janitor? Nearly every student on the campus has at one time been in this embarrassing predicament, where he cannot locate a particular faculty member. For the past three years plans have been projected for a guide which would solve the problem. Though none of these plans ma- , terialized, a start on a "directory was made this spring by Lorna Jean Booras and Marilyn Anderson, WW Collegian staff members. This summer another staf member, Pat Bellingharn, is working on this catalogue of offices. Upon completion, the directory, which will be of wood construction, will carry the names and office numbers of ail faculty and administrative assistants, listed alphabetically, under department "headings. As. now planned, the directory will be placed inside the entrance to the main building on the left hand side of the stairway., Next Industrial Trip To Plywood Plant The next industrial tripwill be taken through the Plwood plant on Tuesda^ afternoon, July 18th.

The group went on record favoring the granting of liberal arts degrees by the teacher training colleges. PLANS DELAYED No" plans were developed at the meeting regarding procedures to secure passage of the bill. Dr. Haggard, stated he felt the group would wait until after the November elections before furthering their plans.' Included in the budget plans were allotments for the proposed new buildings on the campus. Among the future structures are the men's dormitory, a new industrial arts building, and ' improvements to the heating plant. Ellensburg is also planning to make changes on. its .campus.

With no more warning than an almost inaudible swish, a portion of Mt. Baker swooped down upon an unexpecting party of young collegiate hikers. When the slide had completed its mission of death, a count of the party revealed that six of its members were missing. JULIUS DORNBLUT, ALICE JAMES, MAYNARD HOWATT, HOPE WEIT- .MAN, VENE FISHER, and BEULAH LINDBERG did not answer roll call which was sounded off .by hike leaders, ,L. A. McGee, Chet Ullin and Don Cross. They were dead. Death is a five letter word that means a lot. Not only does it mean just dying, but what after that. Those six young people, climbing Mt. Baker, full of happy thoughts, didn't want to die, but that's the way death is. You never know. That's why out of due respect and in memory of those people, we, who are still alive, should think more about the meaning of the word. Maybe it's just fear that doesn't let us think too strongly on the subject. If it is fear that does it, let it be so. For it is not a fear that deprives one of the use of his reason, but rather o fear that clarifies the atmosphere of the mind and sharpens the powers of reason itself. It is not fear that causes the mind to be "sicklied" with the pale cast of thought, but rather the mind that has become sluggish through unrestrained passion, the mind of the person that adopts the philosophy of eat, drink and be merry, but without the thought that tomorrow one may die. He is satisfied to know that he is alive and well. He rarely reflects on why he is at all or on what is the An architect's plans of a Memorial for those students who lost their lives on the slopes of Mt. Baker five years ago are now almost completely fulfilled. Situated on the hillside between Edens Halland the administrative building on the Campus, this memorial lacks only the addition of mountain shrubbery and the bronze name plates. Name placques for the six students will be placed on the inside of the rock wall which has been so designed as4o form a bench. Bronze, which will be used'for the plates will not be purchased until after the war. The memorial has been planned with the thought that students will use the memorial as a place for lounging, sun bathing, or studying. A committee, composed of WWC students and Miss Hazel Plympton, ultimate meaning and purpose of life *? department, and Mr. Herbert C. Ruckmick, who was a member of The memory of those six young people will live long in the hearts of the faculty and the school. You just don't forget things such as that. A memorial has been erected to commemorate the occasion of their deaths. Whenever you pass that memorial, today and any other day, but today especially, just mutter a prayer for the six students, whose names will be placed on separate plaques as soon as the war ceases. The following is a short poem written especially for BEULAH LINDBERG, ALICE JAMES, HOPE WEITMAN, JULIUS DORNBLUT, VENE FISHER and MAYNARD HOWATTc The author is Charles E. Butler. Former WWC Reference Librarian. . MEMORIAL POEM Now you will be forever young: Nowyou will never grow old in a silence, knowing the early music sung. For you now there will never be the slow breaking Of the early dream, the abandoned undertaking, The fine plans forgotten and put aside There will be none of this for you now: you were young when you died. You will never listen now for music finished: For you the song ends on the high note, unfaltering, undiminished. And you will be forever climbing upward now,'the long splendid climb: Weariness can never hold you back, nor the world, nor Time. Goodbye: • the dream endures. You will be young forever; the heights will be .forever yours. the industrial arts staff, worked with architects to plan this monument!

Then followed observation of classroom procedure in which special attention was given to individual differences among pupils. There were nine groups of observers, each group going to a different classroom in the Campus school. Dr. Grim conducted a tour of the whole Campus Elementary School Building before luncheon.l The afternoon session was a Workshop in the Problems of Hearing and a Workshop in the Problems of Speech. The conference was adjourned at 5 o'clock. Tragic Outing Remembered Today is the fifth anniversary of the Mt. Baker tragedy, which killed six former members of the student body during a summer quarter hike up the steep slopes of the mountain. The accident occurred on a Sunday morning in the month of July, The party of 25 WWC students were trudging their way along beneath the Roman Wall on the last stage of the hike. Six of the party were swept to their death with only two bodies being recovered. As it gathered up momentum the avalanche gave no quarter and swallowed all twenty-five members of the group. Early reports had it that the six victims were in a group when struck were discounted by stories of the survivors, who told of the almost selecting nature of the disaster. The body of Alice James, then president of Edens Hall, was located at the foot of a forty-foot icy overhang, while the body of former Collegian editor, Julius Dornblut was discovered in a crevasse some hundred feet beyond the cliff of ice. ROAD IMPROVEMENTS WELJ- UNDERWAY George Dack, WWC head gardener for WWC has done a swell job of "blacktopping" the road, over to the PE building from the parking lot at the side of the main building. Mealy Moves A change of address for -Murray Healy can be noted. Moving from a member of the coaching staff of the Everett school system, Healy has accepted a position as head coach at Bellarmine high school, Tacoma.

In it she said "Last week, I had a pleasant surprise when I accidentally ran into Lt. Ruckmick on the street near the University. Can't say that we didn't "hash" over old times. In fact, for the first time in my life I felt no qualms about cutting a class. Nostalgia—even after all these years. I left the Islands in February, but expect to return in a few months.

Office Staff Picnics, Sails, Entertains Because we are always telling you what the faculty is doing we decided this week to give you some inside "dope" on what the administrative staff are doing for excitement. After coaxing and pleading the best we could find out from the Registrar's Office was that Marjorie Kingsley and Myrtle Burn-ham went on the Deep Water Bay boat trip, last Monday night. Other than that, -according to "Marmie" they haven't been doing "nuttin." Myrtle Burnham from Vancouver, Washington was her guest. TBidred Tremain of the" Dean of Women's Office, had a houseguest last week, in the person of Staff Sergeant. Margaret M. Zurbrick of the Army Air Corps.

"I have been in several bombing raids and it is ' a very helpless feeling. The best thing to do is hit the foxhole and stay down. The Japanese are in for a lot of trouble in the next few months. As the news indicates we are doing all right out here. It is impossible to defeat an outfit like the United States Armed Forces. We have something to fight for and the enemy lacks that one factor.' Jim's address is First Lieutenant James Junkin, USMCR, Hdq. Co. 3rd Bn., 1st. Mar., Fleet Post Office, San Francisco, California. Lt.

Ex-Collegian Editor Visits Old Haunts Sandy-haired, scholarly Barney Chichester, 1928-29 Collegian editor (it was known as the Northwest Viking then) paid a visit to his former haunts last week, noting a number of changes about the building. "At the time 1 went to school the Viking office was located in the science wing," he mused. Admiring the new Collegian headquarters, Barney commented on the special office for the Klipsun and Navigator. His eyes lit up as he reminisced about the Bluebook, the name of the student guide book in the 20's. "One*year," he recalled, "I obtained permission from the board of control to print a. directory of student names, addresses and telephone numbers. -As I remember, I had to drop this undertaking business because I was earning too much money," ~ Barney is at: present principal of the Hawthorne School and supervisor of the Youth Centers of Seattle Public Schools.

Remedial Courses Headed by Catey Joining the faculty of WWC last fall as an instructor in Remedial Education, Mrs. Waneta S. Catey divides her time at WWC working with the teachers and student teachers in the city, as well as with college classes. WWC has extended the program courses for the teacher who wishes to be certified as a remedial instructor since last fall. Mrs. Catey previously was associated with the Illinois State Normal University, at Normal, Illinois. A graduate of the Colorado College of Education, she is especially trained in the teaching of exceptional children. To the remedial teacher, an exceptional child is one who "deviates from the average or so-called normal child in mental, physical, emotional or social characteristics and abilities to the degree that they .require specialized care or instruc-. tion in order to attain the maximum of their abilities or capacities." more red cross (Continued from Page One) entertain or be usable by men who are gt; convalescing in army and navy hospitals.

COLLEGIAN Fisherman's Cove Thursday, June 2, 1949 PERSONALITIES MAKE THE NEWS Wandering Reporter Sees All—Tells All By CLYDE LOOM1S Wandering about the Lummi reservation this evening, I happened upon a happy party, busily engaged in stuffing themselves with fried chicken. Glancing into the group, I spied many familiar faces and found they were some of my old cronies from the Publications staffs at their annual banquet. Among the dignitaries, there were: CECIL THOMAS—The "hard P H Y L L I S ARMSTRONG — boiled" editor, isn't as harsh as people claim editors are. "Cec" as everyone calls him, took over the job as ye olde editor, just before the Publications Prom, when the going was rough. He cracks the whip every Thursday to get every one out of the print shop by six and his f»v-orit saying is "Don't touch my arm—typhoid shots, you know." RUTH BURNET —Affection ateiy called "Ma B." by cubs and editors alike, Mrs. Burnet has the job of keeping a bunch of aspiring young journalists on the straight and narrow. With her lefthanded blackboard pen manship, she keeps her classes informed of deadlines, assignments, etc. "You are the one" and "Clean out the bottles, girls" were heard often whenever Mrs. B. was in the Collegian office. PEARL HOFMAir—"Poil," to many, the hardworking Klipsun editor, is sometimes given to indecisions; the refrain most often heard coming from her lips was "should I go to class or should I skip and work on the annual." Even her calculus hasn't suffered. Past editors may remember their trips to the engravers in Seattle, but our Pearl remembers well the trip to Columbus, Washington, and wayward points — with George Dowd! PAT GRAVES-Never with-out refreshment of some kind was this gal, Klipsun copy editor. Cokes were among the most frequent. Pat is just another Senior hallite on the staff. She kept the public informed of their doings at the house. RAY FJELLMAH-Ray is another convertible owner—only his is about 1932 vintage and "passionate pink" at that He was one of the "dutiful?" copy writers of the Klipsun and is famed for hit unique house warmings. "Bird-dog" to her Senior hall cronies, and Phyl to most, she's combined student teaching with managing the finances of the Klipsun—as a result they have a little left over. "Chief Strong Arm," she has become the "favorite of the fifth" grade on the play field. BURT HORMAN- Owner of a big blue '46 convertible that makes all the girls swoon, Burt seems to be held in monoply by one girl. Workhorse of the staff, he always turned in his copy so clean—the envy of the whole staff and pride of the copy editor. GLENNA HAZELDINE—This red-headed Canadian has served as co-news editor for the past two quarters. Called "Kluane" by virtune of living there, she's noted for saying "wot" and "bean" and famous for her feature "Clementine versus the Hootch." AL MAGNUSON—The use of postage stamps has declined somewhat since Al w r o te "thief" on the back of each one. Our industrious business manager must have had writers cramp when he got through. BETTY McLEOD—This hardy perennial has become a permanent fixture around the Klipsun. Last year's editor, she has helped Pearl with her many Sroblems. For the first time in er college career, she got a term paper in on time this quarter. K A T H L E E N GOLLY— "Katie" is another student teacher who's kept up her work on both publications; working as associate editor with Pearl fall quarter, and Collegian society editor fall and spring quarters. Many's the time her name appeared on the society assignment sheet—coupled with that of a certain aspiring young politician now in the east. Katie served as co-chairman of this years banquet and is willing to take the blame for its success or failure. BARBARA COZZA—"Bobbie" was the vivasious feature writ-ter and assistant business manager of the Klipsun. She wrote her column "Campi" pretty regularly except when her papers were burglarized. Sometimes her stuff wasn't so original, but always good for a laugh. Next time she should use more than one exchange paper. FRANCES F R A Z E E — To whether or not the Nipco press conference was a success, we leave up_ to Franny. The Fra-zee family saw little of their car Thursday nights fall and winter quarter—granges, political meetings and an occasional show following the routine of the print shop. PAT SOMERS —Never has one girls changed so much in so short a time. This reporter has well earned the name of girl-shivoo— for further info consult an Australian dictionary. Pat worked on ^ociety, straight news and served as copy-editor. KENNY FORSETH—This big blond sports editor was one of the best chauffers on Thursday afternoons. Many's a time he could be seen going down High street with his car full of staff members — girls usually! He must have some fatal charm. LEX MILTON-He is all that is left of the Young Democrats. We hope he, too, will find a job in Washington. As feature editor he consistantly tried to steal reporters, space and copy. WWCOLLEGI AN THURSDAY, JUNE 2, 1949 Prined as Low Class Matter in the Cox Brothers Williams Dungeon Ye Olde Editor. , Slander Slingers- „ ^ Typist .... , , ... "Katie" ..Bobbie and Lavee „Pat, "Girl Shivoo" Advisers—Any fool dumb enough to try to tell them anything BEVERLY GORDON —This Mount Baker girl really has got what it takes when it comes to giving orders. She was the culprit who as news editor, gave eveTyone such jazzy assignments. Lavee will go down in history with her famous saying, "Who gave me da Ba-dilla?" S H I R L E Y DICKENSEN— Darling of the music department heads (you see, she covers the beat). "Smiles" reported for the Collegian and is serving as editor of the Navigator. This Senior hallite's favorite saying is "Hot Spit." Wonder where she learns such things. BOB SAFSTON — Diligent, hard-working but always late to class this lad served as associate editor of the Klipsun. Bob will continue his work on the Klipsun by being n e xt year's editor. MARGLEN SNEDDON— Marg is one of the people you have to thank for this meal tonight. She was one of the co-chairmen of the banquet. We didn't see too much of her on the Klipsun staff as the majority of her time is taken up by a certain Vik. GEORGE HESS—Tryant of the copy desk, George slaved over late copy until we were sure he was headed for a breakdown. He fooled us though, he'd just write a nasty note on his blackboard and go out for a short one—he just loves ice cream bars. COX BROTHERS-Here's to the long suffering Cox Bros., Lee and Dick, who many a night have gnawed their fingers to the elbow while waiting for errant reporters to turn in late copy. They got mighty hungry about 7 p. m. GLEN WOLF-The other half of the corporation of Milton and Wolf, he is constantly looking for tired jokes to inflict upon the readers of his column. GARY BRANDNER-Speaks softly and not too often, but wields a wicked typewriter! Gary has been the "old dependable" of the feature staff and is well on his way to becoming the college, students' Robert' Benchley.PPPPP

On pages 5and 6 of this week's edition, we are almost deluged under a flood of letters. They cover everything fromClough to the Administration to boys singing to girls' houses. All we can say is that this is one opinion-packed Christmas package. We would like to tie it up with some kind of ribbon, but we don't think there is any strong enough to hold the controversial contents. It remains our policy, however, to print all signedletters, even though some of them wouldn't look nice under the campus Christmas tree.—The Editor.western Washington COLLEGIAN Western Washington College, Beliingham, Washington Vol. LS, No. 10 - Dee. 12, 1958 No more reel changes: Legislature Moves to Acquire 'Cinemascope' THE STUDENTLEGISLATURE WENT ON RECORD Wednesday night in approval of the purchase of an anamorphiclens, a new projector and installation expenses that will bring cinemascope movies and continuousprojection to campus movies. "By not charging admission to these movies, we will not have trouble from downtown people and everyone on campus could be admitted free," Legislator Barbara Bos, said inexplaining her plan for taking a 25 cent per person fee from present student government fees andapplying it to the cinemascope plan. The Legislature approved the committee recommendation andappointed a special committee to investigate the plan further. Fred Boede presented the group witha W Club plan to obtain programs from the Coca-Cola company for basketball games, selladvertising for them and sell them to students. Profits would be turned over to increasing athleticscholarships. "We're trying to build up our W Club to something besides just saying it's there,"Legislator Fred Emerson said. The Legislature approved the plan and gave the W Club permissionto carry it out, AFTER LISTENING TO COLLEGIAN EDITOR Ken Robertson for 15 minutes, andhaving heard Collegian Adviser James Bliss the week before, the Legislature unanimously approvedgiving the power in signing Collegian requisitions to the Collegian Editor. "I believe students shouldbe responsible for student money," Robertson said, "The Legislature can fire me any time if they don'tlike the way I handle it." IN ONE OF THE HASTIEST PARTS of the meeting—adjournment—President Al Jung announced that next quarter the Student Union Committee would be junked andreplaced by a "Union Board" to be headed by Joe Malik, and that the ASB Executive was instituting aCodified Revision Committee that would advise the administration on the legal aspects of powersand commitments of the ASB. Bruce Hannaford, a graduate student, will head the committee. "Wait aminute, Mr. President; before we adjourn don't we approve of these things?" Legislator Dave Amosbroke in. "Next meeting," Jung stated and adjourned the legislature until next quarter. Curtain Rises onDrama of 'Suspense and Love' Tonight THE LEGEND of Barbara Allen will come to life tonight andtomorrow night in the Music Auditorium, as the curtain rises on "Dark of the Moon." Curtain time is8:15 p.m. This play, a story of a witch boy who wants to become human so he can court BarbaraAllen is a combination of music, dance and drama. It combines the elements of conflict, suspenseand love to make the story, as Dr. Gregory recently s t a t e d , "One of the most unusual and mostexciting plays to be given here at Western in recent years." The combination of unusual and interestingstage settings should also add to the excitement of the play, and making it a show worth seeing. I N TE R P R E T I N G SMOKEY MOUNTAIN life has been the goal of Richardson and Burney, the twoSouth Carolinan authors of "Dark of the Moon." In the play they have set forth a standard of living verydifferent from that of our own, one A scene from 'Dark of the Moon.' which may be criticized—oraccepted by open minded people for what it is—a standard of a class below that which we normallyaccept. Tickets for the production can be obtained all day today at the box office in the A-M Building.Tickets will also be available to students this evening and tomorrow evening upon presentation of theirASB cards. For those other than students and faculty there will be a. one dollar admission charge. ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1958 December 12 - Page 2 ---------- Page 2 WESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAN December 12, 1958 Western hosts press conference:Paper Responsible to Students Not Gov't; Jung Tells Editors Nearly 50 newspaper and annual staffmembers from all annual representatives lt; " 7 ' ' ° ' ' ' p n President Al Jung say that ued theiranalysis of "— a over Washington State heard ASB a newspaper editor is responsible to his readers,not his govern ment, as he welcomed delegates to the fifth annual Evergreen State Press AssociationConference held in Bellingham Friday and Saturday The total delegation of approximately 45 studentsfrom colleges state heard speeches by Northwest and universities throughout the publications personnel, both collegiate and professional, and discussed publications problems in annual and newspaperseminars. Meeting at the Bellingham Hotel on Friday and Saturday, the group moved to the campus forthe Saturday afternoon sessions. Because of the weather, several of the delegations from east of themountains left late Saturday afternoon. ASB PRESIDENT AL JUNG welcomed the representativesFriday and spoke of the mutual responsibilities and communication necessary to both the studentpress and student government. The student press, Jung stated, is not responsible to its studentgovernment but to its student readers. Both student government and the student press should try tofoster public and individual expression among students. Herald City Editor Bill Fowler spoke to thenewspaper representatives on the general quality of their papers and then dealt specifically with . e a c h . . paper. Fowler commented; that , he "believed that many of the limitations to be found in collegenewspapers were the result of very restricted budgets and, consequently, limited space, rather than to a lack of talent." On the whole, he considered the efforts quite good. A PROFESSIONAL REPORTER,Larry Hildebrand, also of the Herald, spoke to the group as future journalists late Friday afternoon.Talking informally, he answered questions about profesisonal journalism and compared it toCollegiate work. Also on Friday afternoon, Clyde Robinson, manager of Student Publications at theUniversity of Washington, spoke to annual representatives. He discussed the reason why theUniversity had elected to have their yearbook published by a firm in Texas rather than a local one. Mainly the switch was due to the increased services which the Texas company offered and a lower bid bysome $4,000. Following Robinson's talk, the annual group heard James Abbott of Seattle's CraftsmanPress explain the advantages of Photolithographic Printing. MAIN SPEAKER AT the banquet, WallieFunk, Editor of the Anacortes American, presented the newspaper plaque to Wayne Ehlers, ManagingEditor of the Collegian. Dr. O'Brien of the English Department, made the annual award. On SaturdayMiss Bonnie Wiley from Central led a seminar on Newspaper features, and continued the judging decisions made on the annuals. Later in the morning Rogan Jones spoke to the entire group on his trip to Russia, and the Russian newspaper and T-V. THE NOON BANQUET at Edens Hall wasattended by Dr. W. W. Haggard, Western president, who spoke briefly to the group on the college andtheir student bodies' problems and challenges which will have to be met in the near future. Highlight ofthe last session was a discussion of the freedom of the press, preceded by a brief statement ofpositions by Western Legislator Jack Rabourn and Wayne Ehlers. At the same time Letterpressprinitng was discussed by Kenneth Miller of Western Engraving in Seattle. His talk was followed bycomments on annual photography by Russ Clift of Jukes Studio in Bellingham.

The original bid forconstruction of the SUB did not call for this additional section. David Laster, chairman of the . Student Union Committee, and Harold Goltz, director of Student Activities, have requested the contractors tomake material and structural changes which will result in the reduction of --' the cost of the building. yThe cost cuts include a savings of $5,560 made possible by changing accoustical plaster to accousticaltile throughout most of the building. The elimination of all Mag-nasite Terrazzo floors except in thelobby and on the front stairs will save $7,000. "WE HAVE HAD WONDERFUL cooperation from thecontractors in making changes in building costs without destroying the quality and characteristics of thebuilding," Goltz said. The added publications area will now be able to provide room for a new CollegianOffice, as well as space for the other publications, such as The Profile, The Writer, The Navigator, and The Klipsun. A darkroom and other photographic facilities will be included. UNDER A" 300-DAYcontract, the construction of the SUB, which waa begun on Nov. 3, is scheduled to be finished on Aug.28, 1959. Interior Designer Douglas Bennett is working in collaboration with Architect Fred Bassetti.Bennett is deciding upon the interior decorations now instead of waiting to plan the furnishings whenthe building is completed. Substituting as a ballroom, the main lounge will have colored thermostatic-controlled lights, which can be raised or lowered, brightened or dimmed. Bennett is designing the lounge furniture and features in conjunction with these electrical lights. "If they ever get a cinemascope lensfocused on this part of the campus . . . wow!" 'No More Breaks in Movies,9 ASB Veep Says Deck theHalls with Advertising' THE ASB SOCIAL BOARD is considering the purchase of an anamorphic lensadapter, a cinemascope screen and a new arc projector for continual movie projection. Of course thisproject will be expensive. The anamorphic lens adaptor zootdd cost approximately $220, thecinemascope screen (size 14' x 30') would run about $450 and the new arc projector, being the mostexpensive, would cost about $1,500. Installation cost of all would be $300. The present projector hasundergone a complete overhaul and at the present time is in excellent condition. The question thenwould be, are you students satisfied with the present system of movies? At the present Western has an adequate movie program. This means we have a popular price and fairly good selection of movies, butthey are one, two or three years old. To strive for an even better program, we can not maintain the status quo. The second projector would give Social Board movies a theater-like showing. No breaks would bepresent — each film would be shown straight through. Is this an item we can do without?Cinemascope is a coming thing on several Washington college campuses. Central WashingtonCollege has installed this program and it is working out very well. The rental of cinemascope films would not cost any more than what we pay at the present time for our films. The only additional cost wouldmost likely be five or ten cents per student to make allowances for wage increases for studentemployees which goes into effect' next year. THEN, W E S T E R N STUDENT BODY, shall wespend approximately $2,500 for the, entire program? Can we do without the additional arc projector?

Has the Selection FURNITURE HOUSEWARES APPLIANCES EASYPAYMENT SERVICE Corner of Bay and Prospect Christmas is just about here, the snow is (was, atleast) falli n g , bells are ringing, and everyone is of good cheer-especially people with a product tosell. Those people, the manufacturers and others who take advantage of Christmas to push a product,are the target of Stan Freberg, a master of sarcasm, who takes a king-sized swing at those whocommercialize the Yule-tide season on a new record called GREEN CHRISTMAS. This new release is a 6 minute, 50 second blast by Freberg, with the Jud Conlon (never heard of them) Chorale and BillyMay's band, at those who utilize November and December to make a holly-wreathed buck. The record is chock-full of priceless barbs: "Christmas has two S's in it, and they're both dollar signs," criesFreberg in answer to one who suggests that Christmas might have some other significance than acommercial one. "Words to live by," gloats Scrooge, played by Freberg, "Christmas is something totake advantage of—jump on the red and green bandwagon—a sentimental shot in the arm forsales!" "Deck the halls with advertising, What's the use of compromising?" scheeches the Choralewith glee. And so it goes. The public can take its hat off to Stan Freberg, an advertising man himself, for expressing the general ill feeling towards the massive prostitution of a pretty important birthday.

At the risk of being named a"pink," I want to say that this record is excellent. The Chorus is magnificent and polished, the bandplays with authoritativeness and finesse. The band and the chorus work as a unit, and the listener isoverwhelmed by the marvelous total sound generated by this] team. The selections are mainlyRussian and Ukranian folk songs, but as this performance was given in London, the Russians comeacross with two well known English songs as well. One of the very impressive numbers is the oldfavorite, "The Volga Boatmen." This one gives the chorus a real chance to show their stuff, and they do.THE SHOCK OF MY LIFE came when I heard this group take off on "It's A Long Way to Tiperary"; tosay the least, I was impressed. At the end of this cut I zoas looking for a dotted line to sign my nameon. The listener can still feel the glint in the eyes of the Russians as they outdo the English on theirown song.

Y C1 £Perhaps is is only because the Bellingham Police Department is trying to enforce the law, and Whilewalking past the playfield in front of the Campus School perhaps it is only because college students areoversensitive about receiving parking tickets or t h e o t h e r d a y I *** t n e siris' field ^ k e y team inaction. From the being arrested on their way to mail a letter. If this is the case, then some of the lawsshould be changed or at least made public more often. A college student we know was walking innocently down the street this quarter when he was taken to the Police Department and accused of molesting agirl. His grilling was not pleasant. More students we know are having trouble finding places to park theircars and when they park them in 'no parking' areas at night where they have never received tickets before, they suddenly find themselves receiving parking tickets, even when their parking is not obstructing trafficor harming anyone. The arrests and tickets may all be within the law, but it is certainly not a way for thePolice Department to win friends and influence people. GENERALLY, POLICEMEN IN THIS CITY AREUNDERSTANDING and nice people. Lately their actions appear as a crusade to gain money for the city.We say "appear." Perhaps they are only up here because alarmists in this part of the city have atendency of calling the police whenever they hear a strange noise. There seem to be too many prissypeople who would not allow college students to have a little normal, human fun,, sometimes, especiallywhen the fun is actually hurting no one. If the city and the people in it do not understand that youngpeople do not yet have the "maturity" to conduct themselves always as if attending a funeral, then theyshould import a seminary or establish a few more mortuaries in their town. At any rate, the interest of thePolice Department is not what we are talking about when we students of Western invite the interest of thecity in our affairs and activities.

Or, is he trying to say that anyone who backs the legislature isinsignificant? Is this the paper's latest way of improving public relations?

It is this editor's belief that because of thatalone there should be something in their college newspaper that they can turn to and enjoy and feel isspeaking for them. Why do we of the Collegian print the Column of Neil Clough? That is a question that is being asked more violently than ever these days, and we do have an answer. The president of theAssociated Students Friday stated that the newspaper editor's responsibility is not to the studentgovernment, but to the student readers. This is a point we have long believed in and battled over, and areabsolutely overjoyed that at long last someone has joined our side who is not necessarily on our side allthe way. We print the column of Neil Clough because we believe he and his opinions are representative of a majority of the students at Western—the students who do not take part in government, who do noteven attend legislature meetings, who have little to say in anything that goes on around the College, who do not seem to matter to many people in high offices. But they are here and they have opinions. Thesepeople matter to us. They are our readers. or 0 Dear Editor: AFTER READING Mr. Opper-man's letter to the editor of last week I felt it my duty to come to the aid of Neil Clough. It is my opinion, but I feel I can safely say that it is the opinion of 75 to 80% of the student body that Mr. Clough's column has broughtnew light to the Collegian. In the three years I've been at Western Neil Clough is the first guy with gutsenough to stand up and say what he thinks FOR SOMEONE WHO quite often abounds in rude, purelyemotional, and often unfounded criticism, he has little room to speak. I hope that during his studentteaching (which he is doing now) he doesn't pass this irresponsible attitude on to the children. By theway, Mr. Clough, I am not a member of the Legislature and I'm not in need of measurements for ablazer. But I am one of several who have been disgusted with your column since its inception.ROBERT WHEELER 'Thank the Boys For the Sernade To the Editor: KLUANE HALL WOULD like toClough's column is certainly not grounded on fact or even on good "journalism." It is a column of opinionand that has always been stated. In contrast to it, we offer a column by the ASB Executive, the news ofthe college, the solid facts on our other pages, and even editorial opinion that solidly differs with Mr.Clough. But for us to ignore the average student—the one who really pays for this paper and itspublication-would be a reversion to the past when cliques controlled everything and only they hadnewspaper space to continually harangue on points that interested nobody but themselves. Mr. Clough's criticism may be rude, but often the truth is rude. His opinions may not be fact, but who can say what isfact, and how many can say that people in public offices always speak the truth when all many of themever utter are platitudes and harmless philosophies to content people who do not know what is goingon, because what is really going on is kept from them? Mr. Clough may offend the pleasant attitudes and the "nice" atmosphere on our campus, but the pleasant and the nice are not the only facts of life. Thejokes and criticisms he writes may not be original or nice or pleasant, but they are what people think and say everyday, and when one cannot print what he thinks or says, then the printed word will neverrepresent anything but an emasculated, distorted picture of our life and times. We believe that themajority of our readers want his column to continue and until that belief is changed it will continue. To ushe represents the students who pay for publication of the Collegian. Not just the people in office, or thepeople who complain about anything they do not consider "nice." We may not always agree with what he says, but we defend his right to say it. He occupies only a small space in our paper compared to thecountless people who are always saying the same old things. Never before has this editor been told byso many students that they like something in the Collegian as those who tell him about Clough's column. By the way, if you do not like his column, why do you read it? —KEN ROBERTSON WW CollegianEntered as second class matter at the post office at Bellingham, by virtue of the act of March 8. 1879.Second Class Postage Paid at Bellingham.

Retain the "status quo"and Western will retain its static position which seems to be the aim of certain members of theadministration and the administrative policy. I would like to ask Dr. Haggard, does Western have anArts and Science Program? The college catalogue implies that it does, but the Placement Office does not seem to be aware of the fact. Wednesday night several of the Arts and Science seniors attendeda meeting in which "ALL seniors are urged to attend" only to find one hour and fifteen minutes devoted to placing teachers and not one mention of placement for the Arts and Science graduate. About 20% ofthe student body are enrolled in the Arts and Science Program. Are all of these people to be exposed toa system which is the outgrowth of the Education Curriculum? Whether in an education or non-education course, the emphasis is placed on the situation we will face as a graduated teacher. IWISH TO EXPRESS the student's appreciation to Mr. O'Neil for the wonderful job he is doing ondistributing information on scholarships available to Western graduates. On more than one occasionhe has implied that the Western student is not capable of being granted a good scholarship. Hemay be right. I cannot remember tlie lasi, recipient of a Rhodes or• Fulbright award—or could it bethat the qualified students are not made aware of their availability. It is encouraging to find that thePuritan ideology is still retained at Western. It seems that n o t b e h e r e - However, I and manycigarette advertising is to be others are fed-up with the prevailing frowned upon in the COLLEG- graduatehigh school attitude. If IAN.

The details go back to World War II. "I WAS BORN INWHAT IS NOW EAST GERMANY, but during the war we moved away from advancing troops. For fouryears we didn't know where my father was, and when we were re-united after the war we no longer had ahome." But it was not until the family was settled in Lubach, near Hamburg, and inflation struck thatthey applied to come to America. Meanwhile, Mr. Gedicks sold his store and moved the family toWupper-tal, in the Rhineland. 'We'd heard that everyone in America is a millionaire," Miss Gedicksrecalls with a smile. "We thought we would go to America and join the crowd. But it took three years toget the papers through. There was red tape and countless questions. They kept asking us, 'Are youNazis? We were told we'd have to wait." WITH A CHARMING SMILE, the freshman class Homecomingprincess added, "I'm glad we moved now. I like it very much in this nation, and I like it at Western." Buttimes were not always so bright. "I can still remember the war. It was terrible. We moved from town totown and I can remember streets lined with dead persons or with marching soldiers." It was near the end of the war that Miss Gedicks recalls seeing Russians for the first time. She-remarked that theyseemed to have no culture or civilization. They washed potatoes in the toilet, for instance, and had goldteeth made from confiscated rings and watches, the comely Western lass stated. "There is hatred of the Russians for what they did in Germany. The Americans gave us candy bars and the attitude of thepeople was different towards them. But the children were afraid to go to the Russians." She mentionedmore atrocious specific instances, then digressed to tell a humorous story about the Russians. It seems that her mother knew a lady from whom had been stolen a pocket watch, and that the Russian soldiertook the watch to the jewelry store. There he demanded the large watch be made into three little wristwatches! The pleasantness of West Germany's Rhineland was made evident. :^: . y?J.v-: £-: • .^ ' "People in Germany are not so rushed as in America. We like nature—water and nature. I like thepeople in the Rhine-land. And there's drinking. From age 10! Well . . . You should go to the winterfests— not just because of the wine, though. Many Americans attend them. The interview wasreluctantly (on the reporter's part) concluded with her observation that too many political questions had been asked. Student Christal Gedicks then returned to class.

Next Friday andSaturday night the Vikings tangle with Willamette and Linfield of the Northwest Conference. OnJanuary 22 Western travels to Linfield for their final tuneup prior to the opening of EvergreenConference action, on January 9. Seattle Pacific, minus their high scoring guard Loren Anderson, haveto depend on a double post. Orville Anderson, the Falcon's leading scorer, and John Knaplund handlethe pivot alignments. Pint-size Ron James is the top outside man and does a good job of feeding thepost men. RON THOMPSON, WESTERN'S high scoring center, will wear a face mask to protect hisbroken nose. A doubtful starter is Ray Kycek who bumped his head on the backboard in a recentscrimmage. Jack deKub-ber, a major disappointment so far this year, is now fully recovered from theankle injury that slowed him up in the first three games. COMMENTING ON HIS team's performance inTacoma Coach Jack Hubbard stated, "Our defense was good and the offense is rapidly improving. Our field goal percentage has not been too good but we have had a strong defense to fall back on." If Kycek is unable to play against Seattle Pacific, Ron Sal-tis will probably get the starting call. Saltis, astarter earlier in the season, is a good defensive player but has failed to score in the first three games. Hubbard expects his squad to be at full strength for the league opener against Eastern, Jan. 9. EdVadset and Wendy Weld will give Western considerable strength at guard and forward respectively, ifthey are eligible winter quarter. Both players were starters earlier in the season but have beenineligible due to grade difficulties. IN INDIVIDUAL STATISTICS reserve guard Dermot Cunningham has shot 67% from the field while Thompson has flipped in 52% of his field goal attempts. From the freethrow line Thompson has plunked in 23 of 31 attempts for 74 per cent. Gary Moore, freshman forward,leads the squad in free throw accuracy sinking four of five charity tosses for 80%. Thompson is theleading varsity scorer with 45 points. He is followed by freshman guard Nello Morganti with 38 points,and Bill Wright who has dropped in 20. Vik Women Wrap Up Sports Program with Hockey FridayALONG WITH CHRISTMAS presents many of the sports activities carried on by the women students,will be wrapped up, too, this week. Western's women took two volleyball teams to Everett Junior College last Friday to participate in an all-day volleyball sportsday. The Blue Team won 5 and lost 2 games.The "spikers" on this team were Betty Olson, captain, Leslie Larson, Jean Patton, Nancy Wheeler,Phyllis Hedges and Sandy Shaw. The White team Vik Swimmers Ready For Opening Meet UNDERTHE COACHING of John Kulbitski Western's mermen are slowly rounding into shape for the comingcampaign. The squad practices three times a week, although classes cause many of the squad'smembers to miss practices. A strong contingent of newcomers are pushing the Vikings' fivereturning letter winners for the varsity jobs. The squad will not be selected until shortly before theseason opens. Returning let-termen include Alan Coghill, Cole Comings, Charles McCurdy, Dave Munro, and Harold Ro-denberger. COMMENTING ON THIS year's team, Kulbitski stated, "If all the boys areeligible we will be much stronger from all indications, than we were last year. If we are going to be in topshape when the season starts we will have to go a little harder in practice." Rodenberger, who finishedsecond in the conference in the 200- yard breaststroke and in diving, seems to be the logical choicefor individual stardom. The 400-yard freestyle relay quartet finished second in the conference last year.Three members of this relay team return this season. WESTERN JOURNEYS to the University ofWashington on January 17 for a dual meet, and travels to College of Puget Sound on Jan. 21. TheTacoma school is the opposition Jan. 30 as the Vikings open their home schedule. 2 won and lost 5games. Those on this team were Gail Tunin-ga, captain; Sue Weidman, Irish Whitechurch, CarolynLaken-nies, Marilyn Gaskell and Esther Rousso. Many of the women students are still braving theelements for those last turnouts of field hockey. Field hockey is still being played but ice hockey is nowa pre-requisite. This week will also be the last week of hockey turnout as the women begin studyingfor finals. THE FALL SPORTS were summed up by the P.E. Department as "quite successful" asthere were many new participants as well as several old ones. The girls turning out for volleyball and field hockey wish to thank volleyball adviser Miss Hull and field hockey adviser Dr. Aitken. In joining with the Yuletide spirit, the Rheba D. Nickerson Club held its annual Christmas party at the home of theiradviser Miss Ruth Weythman on Tuesday, December 9. Dinner and a visit from Santa topped theevening. ON WEDNESDAY EVENING the Women's Recreational Association held their annualChristmas party in the Campus cafeteria. By DOUG SIMPSON Another honor was added to guard EdMelbourne's gridiron accomplishments last Friday. Melbourne was named to the first team All-PacificNorthwest. Jack Sim, Dennis Sheppard, and Fred Emerson received honorable mention. The Vikinghoopsters played well in Tacoma last weekend, but lost Saturday night to PLC, 66-58. Ron Thompsonand Bob Petrosik paced the squad to Friday night's overtime victory over CPS, 56-53. . After beingoutrebounded by mediocre St. Martins two zoeeks ago, Western showed vast improvement in that all-important department. The Viks pulled down 43 rebounds to only 11 by the Loggers of CPS. Neither team was particularly effective from the floor,, but were hot on the charity line. Western converted 30 of 42attempts, with Thompson sinking 17 of 20 tosses. Against PLC Western was ahead until the last fewminutes before falling before the Lutes, 66-58. Early in the first half Western's ace pivotman RonThompson suffered a compound fracture of his nose. Coach Jack Hubbard's squad fought hard, but minus the high scoring Thompson they'; could not hold off the always rough Lutes. Bob Roiko, who has beenovershadowed by Chuck Curtis the past two years proved his value by tanking 25 points to pace PLC. gt; gt; gt; Tonight Western takes on Seattle Pacific College here in the college gym. SPC has agood ball club paced by Orville Anderson, and will give the Vikings a real battle. Ron Thompson will beable to play with the aid of a face mask. With a healthy Thompson, Western, beginning to jell as a team,should be able to topple the Falcons. There is a new addition to the swimming team's equipment thisyear. Assistant Coach Chuck Stutz has designed a mechanical rabbit that paces the swimmers. The "tin cottontail" consists of a piece of cloth tied to a string on a motor-operated pulley. The string on the pulley extends the length of the pool and is located near the edge so that it can be seen by the swimmers.After a desired time is decided upon for each lap, the indivdual figures out the pace he would have to travel in order to obtain the time; then he sets the machine accordingly. The rabbit can travel as slow as 35seconds per lap, with faster times as desired. The pacer replaces the coach who ordinarily walks backand forth at a certain pace near the pool's edge.

Pfundt was crowned at intermission of the dance by AWS president Barbara Vesledahl. Hewon out over his seven opponents in an election held during the day of the tolo. A junior residing atDaniels Hall, he is an art major and a biology minor. He has been chairman of the Associated StudentBody Publicity Board during the past few months. Pfundt claims Blaine as his home town andconfesses that his favorite pastime is skiing. TOLO CO-CHAIRMEN Jane Palmer and Maude Woodtermed the dance as a success. "We would like to thank all our committees for lending a helpinghand to make the dance a success. A special thanks should go to decorations chairman KarenBrunstrom and Janice Pilik who did such a wonderful job." Decorations were done in turquoise, black,silver, and pink magenta. Modernistic mobiles hung from the ceiling light fixtures and a wall sizedmural added accent to the wall opposite the band stand. Names of each couple attending the tolo wereinscribed on notes which decorated two large music staffs winding across the two side walls.Photographs of the dancers were taken by Benson Studios of Everett, against a free-form figure. Thepictures were arranged by photographer chairman Lou McElravy. THE DANCE WAS held from 9:30 p.m. to 12:30 a.m. in the Elks Hall with music being furnished by the College Dance Band. Audience toJoin Chorus: Music Department Presents Winter Concert Monday Night ECSA Conference to Have'New Twists' NEW TWISTS TO OLD IDEAS in student government procedures will be one of thesubjects discussed by the Evergreen Conference Student Association, it was decided last week.Heads of ECSA committees and planners composed of 15 students, held their first meeting lastThursday in the student center. Formed by 11 colleges in the state the ECSA is to promote goodwillamong the schools of higher learning and to establish and maintain high standards of scholarshipand sportsmanship. Al Jung, ECSA vice-president said, "Perhaps the fundamental purpose of theConference is to instill in the attending officers, future Presidents, and leaders, a feeling of confidencein themselves, thus a confidence in others. It will help them develop their own strong sense ofresponsibility which will communicate itself to others." "OUT OF THE CONFERENCE will come a groupof officers, representatives and communicators who will have a high standard of achievement andsimplicity in life, a simplicity where one can act on his own because he has taken the time to reasonand confide in himself. This is what the public should respect and does." The fall executive meetingwas held in November at Seattle University. Some of the colleges represented were CentralWashington, Gonzaga, Pacific Lutheran, Seattle Pacific and Western. St. Martins sat in as an observerand Washington State College will1 sit in at the spring conference. Topics will include problems onfollow-up work, making ECSA specifically useful to member schools, artist book information, theexpanding membership, keeping the meetings short and compact. The schools are going to collaboratein planning the artists and lecturer's tours. One of the chief drawbacks last year was lack of publicityand advance planning according to the representatives. To improve, Western has already set upcommittees and taken steps to make this year's conference more succesful.

Room 129 has been turned over to the girls and they are urged to go there as often as possible. It will be open every week night from 7 o'clock until 8:30, and also on Saturday if enough girls sign up. The unit is directly under the sponsorship of the Red Cross headquarters, and everyone is wel- Of the 2500 bandages provided, 400 have been completed and it is estimated that if enough girls will volunteer at least 2000 a month can be made. Tney are very easily made and zip experience is required. Ttye following rules have been set up for those working on the bandages in the room: 1. No one is to make surgical dressings unless one of the supervisors is present. 2. Wear a cotton dress or smock and cover the hair with a washable kerphjef. 3. Do not work when you are Small Containers • The containers labeled WSSP, placed at various points about the building are for the benefit of the World Student Service fund. This fund is similar to the work of the Red Cross, the difference being, this fund is raised by the students of America to be given to other students who are victims of the war. Money is sent to New York where it is cabeled to Geneva. There it is distributed in the manner in which they see fit. The money is used to buy books, music and recreational equipment for prisoners. It is used to feed and educate the Chinese students, and it is sent to Russia and Greece . to buy food and medical supplies. The money is used in America also to provide a year's education for a Japanese-American student or a refugee student. Special War-Time Courses Offered • This is the first in a series of articles intended to give readers a better picture of war activities being carried on on the campus. Immediately after Pearl Harbor the curriculum was put on a wartime basis, instructors gave freely of their time to teach on night and extra classes.

There are two sales conducted in the Elementary school every Wednesday, one for the Junior high and the other for the training school. The pupils have a desk for selling stamps both upstairs and on the main floor. The sixth grade takes charge of selling to the elementary children and has a monitor collect stamp money from the various rooms. The most stamps sold in any one day was seven hundred. ' "They have really done a nice job of buying stamps. Each child has his own book and fills it in regularly," was the statement made by Nancy Smith, secretary to Dr. Grim who is director of the Training school. A new flag for the main hall of the training school has been purchased by the children from money secured through the scrap metal drive. More Headaches (Continued from Page One) Course Hr.

A tour of the campus and a 4 o'clock tea comprised the afternoon's events. In the evening an elaborate banquet was served. A childhood theme of decoration and a musical program were the highlights of the occasion. A long expected guest finally arrived. He was Lt. Lew Lovegren, son of Mrs. May Lovegren. Lt. Lovegren recently received his commission in "the United States army. A new addition to the Edens hall family is Oscar, the cat. His appearance is that of a common alley cat but the girls of Edens hall are sure he is of royal blood. It's in the air, it's in the campus, it's in the dorm, it's spring fever.

S. Army recruiting office in Bellingham. Women who speak and write Spanish, Portuguese, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, French, German, or Italian are very much needed in the WAACs, and are offered opportunities for rapid promotion, Sergeant Montes said. After completing the five-week basic training course, WAACs may be appointed to Officer Training school, or to Army Specialist schools, and upon completion of this training may be assigned to active duty with the army in the United States, or abroad. In no" case will a woman be sent overseas against her will, Montes added. Also badly needed in . t he WAACs are radio operators, mechanics, pharmacists, band instrumentalists, weather observers, stenographers, and telephone and teletype operators. Further information about training, pay . and promotion, may be obtained by the Army Recruiting office in Bellingham. Closed Week Policy All Work; No Play • In order to give students a much needed opportunity to prepare for quarter exams, closed week has gone into effect. Beginning last Monday, the restricted period will last until Friday; March 19. During this time regular club meetings may be, held, but there are to be no parties or social affairs. Edens hall girls will receive no special permission, and no one may go home for the week-end.

Baseball, bats and gloves are beginning to make their appearances as are tennis rackets. Thinclad hopefulls can be seen examining the track with an air of expectancy. Ludwick, Lowery and some of the other divot-diggers have been observed stealing out towards Lakeway. It is to be hoped that their hopes won't be smashed at the annual. Winco meeting at Seattle this week-end. It is obvious that varsity sports can't be carried on in the style to which they have been accustomed. Probably intramural sports will be substituted but we hope that intercollegiate athletics won't be entirely abandoned as they have a definite place and intramurar sports cannot adequately fill that place. _ ,~~ ,*.. „ . u s know...Pvt.

Delegates will draw up the schedule for forthcoming spring sports as well as decide on the protested EWC-WWC basketball game.' Sportsman Has Odd Records • One of the last but not the least to be mentioned is this week's sports personality. He came to this school as a transfer from CPS and has played varsity ball here for three years. He has participated in almost every sport at WWC and although he has not been the best in everything there has never been a gamier and more staunch competitor in. the school. This winter he made the trip to the eastern part of the state and made the record in one game of having a foul called on him without even entering the game. He finished his college career in basketball in fine fashion by being veryv' instrumental in the Viking's final win over EWC. Earlier in the season he had a contest with another squad member about which would get the least number of points for the season. He won. It is evidently a habit for him to finish his last game in a thrilling sort of fashion as last fall he pulled the same sort of finish in football as he did in. basketball. Both he and the student lounge fund were recently recipients of a small but tidy' sum with the help of the basketball games. As he is in the Naval Reserves, V-7, he probably will not be called into the service for a while. When he does he surely will be as good as they come for Uncle Sam. WE CALL FOR AND DELIVER GEO.

Climaxing the second half play by taking two critical games from the Daniels hall quintet, the boys from across the street proved themselves the number one five. Art Stenson, who played very steady ball all season, along with Don Brown carried most of the scoring punch for the winners. Although getting of to a shabby start, Hospice rounded up into a smooth working team. The roster for the new champs consisted of Art Stenson, Don Brown, Mike Smith, Bill Wilder, Dick Morsman, Don Neal, Doug Bailey, Red Wright, and Bob Sar-vis. Sarvis and Wright did not finish the season because they were called into the service while the rest of the group played the majority of the season for Mrs. Stearns' house.

Those two losses were one each to Western and Central. The last series of the season scheduled for St. Martins and PLC was cancelled and therefore those teams played only 14 games apiece instead of the regular conference number of 16. PLC had lost four of its squad to the Army while St. Martins lost Allensworth and Erickson. The protest game between Western and Eastern will be called to attention Saturday when the coaches have their meeting in Seattle.

STAMPS Student Suggestions, Opinions Told Here Compilation of opinions has been made by the WWCollegian on the general subjects of social activities on the campus and the use of the Student Lounge. The opinions were collected by means of a questionnaire which was given out in assembly last Tuesday and are not intended to have any bearing on the work of official committees. The results are as follows: The majority was of the opinion that there is not sufficient entertainment on the campus over the weekends. Two-thirds of the students agreed that they would be willing to help with regular Bee Hours to cut down expenses. A little less than half of the students liked Thursday night as the best night for the Mixed Rec, while others were in favor of Wednesday and Friday nights. More than half would like movies shown in the auditorium on Friday and Saturday nights and the types of pictures most acceptable were comedies, popular, educational, travel, mixed, war effort, and sports. Some voted for just any kind available. This is in line with Cheney's policy of showing movies on the campus. Ideas on Mixed Bee Good Suggestions for making the Mixed Recs more appealing were: better organization, change of nights, contests, more, people, and better advertising. The majority was in favor of inviting off campus organizations mostly service men, to school functions. Additional suggestions for improvements of social life on the campus were: more Rec Hours; place to gather in the evenings; school dance band; community sing; tag dances; more organized hikes; pool open1 1on Sat-^ urday and Sunday afternoons; parties where everyone wears what they please and square dances and Virginia Reels are held; inviting service men to our social functions; and more cooperation in all activities. According to tne above tabulation of figures the vote seems to be in favor of some changes in the social activities. Interest Shown in Student Lounge On the Student Lounge questionnaire the following results were obtained: The expression of opinion by the majority was for the use of the Student Lounge for the duration even if it can't be fully equipped until after the war. The majority also was in favor of using the Lounge with borrowed furniture and a few students knew of people who would be willing to lend furniture to the Student Lounge. Many expressed their desire to have dancing in the Student Lounge, and more than two-thirds are willing to dance on the soft floors if it can be prepared at small expense. The following are suggestions made for the serving of food in the Lounge: Cokes and candy© machines;; volunteer helpers, scheduled or standing committees for the different parts, of service maintenance, cafeteria style, and student control. Many students said "no" to any type of food other than cokes or candy and ice cream bars. Others said "no food until after the war." Oyer half of the opinions were in favor of playing games in the •Lounge. Fewer than half were in favor of allowing smoking. "As soon as possible!' was the majority answer to the question, "What stage of completion would it be advisable to use the Lounge?" Some suggestions were: "put linoleum on the You Can Obtain the BLUEJACKET'S MANUAL At The STUDENT'S GO-OP ea mpt lt;i Girt: "If we become engaged, will yon give me * ringTV Boy:.. ^Certainly, wlutf* your ' • ' . .

Cactus plants have more uses than just furnishing "scenery" for movies about the "Wild West," Mrs. Nell Hutchinson, director of the Texas union, student recreation center atf the University of Texas,, has discovered. Gas rationing brought a request from students for a Saturday night- "night club" of their own, and the result was the Longhorn room of the union. The room is complete with red checkered tablecloths, student floor show, a nickelodion for dance music—and cactus. « The cactus, Which Mrs. Hutchinson and some student helpers dug up and transplanted themselves, serve a number of purposes other than decoration. The heavy "pots" in reality, pre-ration coffee cans-keeps the table cloths in place; the sand in which the cactus is planted is a protection against any small blaze, such as burning paper napkins; and the plants serve as windbreakers for the candles with which the tables are lighted. Glennis. Sundberg, WWC sophomore who previously attended State Teachers College at McCloud, Minnesota, gives a description of the student lounge of that school. "The large room which is only a little bit larger than the one here, is divided into four small ones. One room each for dancing, cards, table tennis and lounging," Miss Sundberg said. "The latter room is equipped with furniture, rug, and a radio." She also explained that the only food sold there is candy and cokes, and that one student is paid to manage the selling of it. In the dancing room there are a linoleum floor and a nickelodeon, she said, and the room was open on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday nights.

There will be no charge to see and hear the concert, but a silver offering will be taken to help out the biennial scholarship given by the club. Since the firsthomecoming concert in 1934 over $4000 has Virginia Haskins Sings In Auditorium Tuesday ByHELEN KNUDSEN On July 21 at 8 p. m., WWO students will be privileged to attend the performance ofMiss Virginia Haskins, coloratura, who has been dubbed one of the most versatile stars of today's musical world. This versatility of the petite Miss Haskins was borne out by her appearance in "Carousel" kinging"If I Loved You" concurrently with her role as Zerliha in 'Don Giovanni." * After studying three years underthe tutelage of Bernard Ferguson in St. Louis, she went to Italy with the famed opera star, Rosa Raisa,where she made her professional singing debut as Gilda in "Rigo-letto." She afterwards made herAmerican debut in Chicago and was signed for Mutual Network's "Chicago Theatre of the Air" on whichshe still appears. Her- program here in the college VIRGINIA HASKINS auditorium will include folk songs from various countries, several selections from the modern operas of G. C. Menotti, and selectedpieces ifrom Victor Herbert, Bellini, and F. Poulenc. It is difficult to realize th|at accomplished andpoised artists also have their "unpoised" moments. Such was the time when, keeping itrue to the oldadage about the *show going on, she kept on with the open-air broadcast of "A Midsummer Night'sDream" throughout a rushing downpour and was drenched to the skin long before the final scene. Butperhaps the event that sticks most closely to her mind as "one to remember," was the night of theopening of Prokofieffs "Love of Three Oranges" in New York, when the zipper of her costume sprung andfor a moment she thought she would have to sing "au naturelle." ["Luckily," she laughs, "I was hiddenbehind a prop rock near an exit and a stage hand managed to smuggle a safety pin to me." There will be no edition of the Collegian next week because of tests and the end of first term. The Collegian will beback in the stands on July 31 to give you entertainment and enjoyment.

This is the first' time in recent years that a play has been produced during summersession. It is hoped that in the future summers more one act plays may be produced or that even athree act play will be used. This production is being done by special arrangement with Walter H. Bakerplays. • A master of style and superb technician, this versatile artist will appear in the auditoriumTuesday night at 8:15, as a feature of the Western Washington College Cummer Quarter Artist series.

His repertoire ranges from Bach to Batrok,encompassing the great masterpieces of Brahms, Beethoven, Mozart, Chopin and others, as well asunusual works by Prokofiev, Ravel, Milhaud and Gershwin.

Since thenhe has toured widely every season; being heard in recital in almost all the major cities; appearing withthe country's leading orchestras headed by the New York Philharmonic, San Francisco, and BostonSymphony; and duplicating the tremendous enthusiasm of Norh America in Europe and South America.

LEADERS OFSUMMER CONFERENCE—On campus of Western Washington College this week are leaders ineducation and other activities participating in the Annual Summer Conference, Pictured above, front row,left to right, President W.

Doll, Adell Swanson, Gordon Carter,Janet Raymond, Harold Mansfield, Eldra O'Neal, Ernest Wellenbrock, Dorothy Chapin, Vera Leidle,Thomas (Presented as a public service by the Washington State Bar Association.) FORE! "Fore!"yelled Glen Glibb as he sized up the fairway in front of him. 1. "Better be careful," cautioned his partner. "Those people aren?t, out of range yet." There was a resounding crack as Glen drove, and the ball shotout low and hard along the right side of the fairway. As the players watched, admiring the fine shot, theball began to curve to the left, hooking toward the men and women in the fairway. "Fore," yelled Glenfrantically, and one of the women moved desperately to one side, ducking her head. The ball struckher arm. WARNING NECESSARY Glen was at fault. The players were obviously in a danger zone, andthe mere shouted warning was not sufficient to protect them, especially since their backs were toGlen, and they were proceeding ahead of him in a place where, under the rules of the game, they hada right to be. The player must reasonably foresee the likelihood of a "hook" or a "slice" causing injuryto others, and use care necessary to prevent such injury. On a golf course, remember, use ordinarycare to see that others are protected. If they are in a danger zone, be sure they know when you aregoing to drive. Never deliberately drive into the people ahead of you. more johannesen (Continued onPage 2) that year for the first time in France, Germany, Holland and Belgium. Last year he returned toHolland to record five concert! with various orchestras for Concert Hall recordings. His solo albumsinclude works of Schumann, Schubert, Faure, Poulenc, Beethoven, Greig, and the complete work ofChopin. Johannesen's first South American tour last summer was an un-qualfiied triumph as he hasbeen engaged for a return tour in 1954. Summer engagements at leading stadium concerts, including the Hollywood Bowl, round out his touring calendar and he is the only young pianist to be heard regularlyon the Telephone Hour. This radio program, also NBC's Standard Hour from the Pacific Coast andABC's popular Piano Playhouse, have brought Johannesen's exciting artistry into the homes ofmillions of listeners. Some of his own compositions were heard on a recent broadcast of PianoPlayhouse and many of his songs are played in leading music halls.

They break downinto classes as follows: There are 19 men and 24 women freshmen enrolled in summer school and about the same number of sophomores with 17 men and 25 women. Forty-seven men and 102 women areenrolled as juniors and 116 men arid 240 women are seniors. ' In the graduate school t h o se studyingfor their masters degrees are the only ones where the men outnumber the women in summer school.There are 102 men and only 10 women who are going after their masters degree. People who havegraduated and are just completing farther study go back into the same trend with more women than men with 139 men and 188 women enrolled. There are 11 men taking special and 35 women. The latter forthe most part are not carrying an eight hour load. Of the totals 451 men are in summer school and 624 women. This is a reversal of form for the regular school year as usually there are more men than women enrolled during that time.

Students Satisfied With Two Terms A week 'agoWednesday a poll was taken by the registrar's office on the summer calendar and if the students thought it met their individual needs or not. Below is a note from Mr. Ferris' office indicating just how the poll went. The student opinion poll showed over whelming sentiment in favor of the present calendar. Only 33 indicated dissatisfaction with the present arrangements out of over 400 replies received. The poll wastaken in the 11 o'clock classes. Although opportunity was given for students not enrolled in eleveno'clock classes to secure questionnaires in the registrar's office, none were so distributed. Theapparent conclusion is that the present calendar meets the needs of those now attending summersession to a great extent. Mystery in Ploy Based on Murder "Trifles" will be presented nextWednesday, July 22, in the college auditorium at 7:30 p. m. This is the final day of the first term and willgive you a chance to relax and enjoy yourself in this one act play. The play is a character sketch oftwo individuals, neither of whom appear in the play. It evolves around the question, "Did the woman killher husband—and if so, why?" The people in the play visit the farmhouse where this man has beenfound strangled with a rope. The action takes place in the farm house and gives you a good answer to the question of the death.

The final amount was set after cutting the sinkingfund of $1000, adding $300 to trips and conferences, and adding $200 to the Evergreen ConferenceStudents association. Discussion was held on the Collegian budget but no action was taken, */S* At the regular Wednesday meeting the Board heard a plea from Ray Sundal, Homecoming' co-chairman,who requested that $200 more be added to the Homecoming funds in the Social budget for this fall. TheBoard will consider this request when the budget comes up for final approval. Royal Pennewell,committee chairman for athletic proposals, presented his findings and* by-law change which wouldbe necessary to comply with Coach Chuck Lap-penbusch's request for i graduates to buy their ownawards jackets with one award in a major or minor sport. The proposed change read: to be added toASB by-laws, article 8, section B and C, that any four year graduate or MA graduate of WWC who is anathletic l e t t er award winner at Western may purchase and wear Western's jacket award aftergraduation. The motion failed to pass on the basis that it would cut any difference in earned awards nowin force. Kilpsun committee presented its recommendations for photography contracts. The Boardaccepted the recommendation for the contract for 1953-54 to go to Bradbury Studio for the followingreasons: (1) both contracts were similar in most' respects; (2) students would only have to pay $2.50per sitting at Bradbury's rather than $3.00 at the other place; (3) the other company desired freeadvertising in the Collegian under terms of the contract; (4) students may reorder last year's picturesat Bradbury's without paying the entire setting fee over again; (5) a source of income for the Klip-sunwould be through reorders. The Board further recommended that next year's editor* Arlene Mc- Kinney,be asked not to use cuts over again in the year book, and that faculty who have not had their picturesretaken within the last five years should do so this year or their's will not be included in the Klipsun. Next week the Board will discuss advertising for the book. Megan David, Insurance committee chairman,presented group insurance plans from Lloyd's of London, United Pacific, Northern Life* andNorthwestern Life for the Board's consideration. The Board moved to rceommend to the Board ofTrustees of the College that Lloyd's of London group insurance plan for $500 coverage at $1.85 perquarter be accepted as the policy to take effect this year. The policy has 24 hour coverage including onthe jobs, pays anything over workman's compensation, covers students for the summer whether theyattend school then or not if they have paid fall, winter, and spring. The policy gives two weeks more tofile claim than do the other policies, covers auto accidents, and covers intramurals athletic accidents(not varsity which is already covered.) Gov.

This was the annualaffair put on by the college. From all of the remarks passed to Dean Bill McDonald, there weren't anywho didn't think the salmon was perfectly done, and no one went hungry. There was plenty of salmon foreveryone to have all they wanted—as advertised—and anyone who didn't get enough dessert,pickles, olives or salad was just too full to move to the serving tables. A lot of credit goes to the big dean of men and all of his barbecue helpers for an excellent job done. Among his cooking helpers from thefaculty were: William Dittrich of the science department, Dr. Donald MacPhail of the social studiesdepartment, and Dr. David McDonald of the education department. Students who helped were: BobDickey, Bob Lajala, Fred Long, Bud Scott, Ken Valentine and Rick Valentine. New Term StartsThursday, July 23 Second term begins next Thursday, July 23. All people who are going to differentclasses second term should follow the same time table as first term and just report to their new classes. Mr. Ferris, the registrar, stated, "Any change of program for second term should be made beforeThursday, July 23 if possible, but the last day you can change second term classes will be Monday,July 27."

Stearns Wins TV Roger Stearns, a summer student here at Western and aregular member of Western's golf team, walked away from the hole-in-one contest with a $500 consoletelevision set this week. Steam's shot was just 6 and % inches from the cup. Stearns had to "sweat itout" all day Monday, as he was the first golfer to shoot in the finals which were held last Monday at theCornwall park site. Another \ Western golfer, Fred Carbonatto, almost stole the show with hisafternoon shot that rimmed the cup but came out and stopped just about 3 feet away. This gaveCarbonatto a fourth place. originally built under the auspices of WWC and the Mt. Baker Hiking club,has been renovated in the last two years and will accommodate thirty people.

All too often, college is an escape from the cold cruel world where one has to support oneself. It's easy to let your parents support you for another four years. Have youever heard of the term "Office Hours"? Have you ever raised your hand in class to ask a question; orhave you just sat there and vegetated with the rest of the "totem poles"? You're in college, not highschool. I know it must be a shock to have to do a little individual thinking and working after the easyroutine of high school. And to top it off, you single out the history department. You would have a hardtime finding a group of instructors who would be more interested in working with students individually. Allyou have to do is darken their door and they will be glad to help you fulfill your ambitions. In conclusion, I would suggest that you do something about your "fascination" other than talk about it. Either do thelatter, or take "Underwater Basketweaving" or "Underwater Cheerleading."

ILTON E. TERRY JEWELER 1305 Commercial Street Page 4 WESTERN WASHINGTONCOLLEGIAN November 7, 1959 ---------- Collegian - 1959 November 7 - Page 5 ---------- By BOB STEVENSON, Collegian Artist, Columnist Beatnik coffee houses are in the news so frequentlylately that they have become a constant curiosity as far north as Bellingham. In an alley off GardenStreet, a few blocks from campus, a group of students were sitting around their small basementapartment, while down a long flight of stairs and outside the door, a sign bathed in blue light callsattention to the place as the Mole Hole. As the story was revealed to this columnist, there came aknock on the door, and when it was answered, there stood a number of high school students. One ofthese dungaree- clad youths stepped up and said, "Hey, Man, do you serve coffee here?" "Coffee?"came the retort, "what do you mean?" "Isn't this an Espresso coffee house?" asked the Youth with anair of indignation. It seems that all of Bellingham High School has been looking for the 'Mole Hole' forsome time now. Someone has been passing the word about a 'coffee house' of this name somewhere inBellingham. This writer can see in the future a Mole Hole making tuition costs for its occupants. Thetalk of change is not too apparent to this columnist as he threads his weary way to and from classes. Of all the modern equipment conceived by man to make man's work lighter, the grounds keepers seemto be in the dark ages. They still pick up leaves with a hand rake when a lawn sweeper would cut theirlabor appreciatively and leave about four men for other tasks about our campus, such as clearing theWater Buffaloes off the 21st street parking lot. For the next problem this writer will lay the blame onthe freshman and transfer students. I can't understand why it is Western's luck to acquire thesesloppy people who call themselves college students and adults. The reason I lay the blame here is this:last year, in our old "Postage Stamp" lounge, it was considered almost a sin to leave a coffee-stainedcup or a catsup-smeared plate on a table that someone would be using next hour. The WorshippersAsked Why . . . In the beginning there was the god. There followed the priests, and after them theworshippers. The College catalog states that class attendance at Western is "compulsory." Westernprofessors will explain this item in one of the following ways: 1. It is necessary to attend class regularlyto benefit from the course. 2. Veterans must attend classes to receive their GI benefits. 3. It is like having someone work for you. If he is one of the many and shows up only once a week with his work done, youdon't notice him much and you don't tend to give him much consideration when everyone else has beenaround all the time. No. 1 is logical in most cases, No. 2 is the law, and No. 3 is a very human andunderstandable explanation. The really frustrating one, however, is No. 4. It goes like this: "You mustattend class because the College catalog says so." This would be fine if the College catalog were notconsidered a sort of holy book, some of the faculty priests, and many students worshippers, because inthis system the priests always refer to the holy book and no questions are expected. I t would be fine,too, if some instructors did not base grades on attendance over work performed—always citing theCollege catalog. Sometimes we wonder. When was the holy book written? Many instructors do notcare if one ever attends class. They tell him they will judge him on his performance. If he thinks he canlearn without benefit of their assistance, they are willing to let him prove it. These are usually the peoplewhose classes it is necessary to attend to learn. Fortunately they are in considerable number, and thereare also many classes where attendance is obviously necessary and the courses and words of theinstructors are too valuable to miss. Unfortunately, there are also a great number of courses extremely uninterestingly presented, poorly organized and good places to sleep. These are often the classes wheregrades are based on attendance, and where the instructor gives answer No. 4. Now, perhaps, this wholediscussion is picayunish and we should all follow the rules and live happily ever after. But we thought wehave seen Western emerging from the cocoon of rules that act as props for poor courses and lazyinstructors, or ones who have never questioned the book. In a community of scholars, or a world of ideas,it seems somewhat of an insult to have rules that are really not necessary, that one can follow throughcommon sense. At any rate, when everything is being considered in the College's new self-evaluation, itmight be interesting to take a look at the holy book. Long ago there may have been a god that fittedthose times, but wouldn't it be something if the priests wondered a little about the passages they're still quoting, and if a worshipper weren't simply shot for asking that horrible question: Why? There is anunivritten law at Western, whether you know it or not, that when a person has a rwb of coffee, he puts itin the tray rack when finished with it. (Conform or I will stab you with my poison pen!) Our Historydepartment, still reeling from the shock of having a student knock the pedestal out from under them, aretrying to build themselves back up by striking out at the freedom of student expression. There is evena student who, altho not a history major, is writing a letter to the Editor showing just how hard sometoes were stepped on. Don't you agree that even if the history department is the so-called best, it couldstand some improvement?

By KEITH ALLEN Shortly afterfour on Monday afternoon a handful of people stood around joking while others arranged chairs andpoured themselves coffee. At precisely 4:18 Dr. James L. Jarrett arrived and was poured a cup ofcoffee. While he sat down and lit a cigarette, the group waiting outside came in hesitantly and seatedthemselves in the SUB Conference Room. Collegian editor Robertson began speaking as moderator and the first student press conference with president James Jarrett was under way. Robertson beganwith questions written by the group beforehand and Dr. Jarrett answered. He first discussed theHonors Program and, as throughout his answers, more or less confirmed the opinion he had expressedin his earlier addresses. He stated that the Honors Program would possibly be in use in less than twoyears at Western. No response was made to a request for questions from the floor. Though most were a little tense at the beginning, those present began to relax as the president answered their querries.Another typically loaded question was asked, and again another. All eyes were on Dr. Jarrett as hepaused, listened to the next question, and went on. Another person silently came in and sat down. If onelistened closely during a pause, he could hear the fan, as it hummed and blew the suspended lights, aswell as the dish-ncise and murmur of those in the coffee shop. 'We Don't Need Chssring Thcrjsands' "Idid say we were not a football college," Jarrett said in answer to a question on athletics. "An addition tothe gym is fine and good, but . . . it is not to take any precedence over academic additions." One couldsense others were starting to relax. "We don't need to win every football game," he went on. "We do notwant or need cheering thousands at our sports events." Robertson continued reading each question."Vocational journalism is not taught because it is not an academic course," came the president's reply to another. "Those going into school newspaper advising may learn the technicalities of the field with thecourses available." Beyond that, he went on, students can attend trade schools. The 23 in attendancestirred as the first question came from them unwritten. Dr. Jarrett stated that the student should do his part in reaching the goals he aims for and not leave it up to the work of his instructors. The 'SimpleMinded' Student The sounds of pens on paper filled the room. The concluding discussion brought outthe improbabilities of a "simple-minded" student receiving a degree at Western. Admissionrequirements were mentioned. At 5:20 Dr. Jarrett mentioned the fact that more and more might beattending these weekly scheduled conferences open to all students, and that perhaps more activediscussion would take place. The first conference was finished and several helped themselves to thecoffee. President Jarrett rose and talked with Robertson. "I didn't notice the time," he said. No one elsehad, either. INTERViW The Governor at 2 a.m. With the clinking of spoons on coffee cups setting thescene, it was almost as unusual as it was unexpected. In the background a 2-star general and a groupof the governor's friends sat discussing policies and politics over a late meal, while Washington State'schief executive himself sat down with a group of Western Washington College students for a spur-of-the- moment interview over a cup of coffee. "I have just finished helping inaugurate a good man forWestern," Governor Albert D. Rosellini told two editors of the Collegian Saturday night as he satdown with them in the dining Signing autographs for students INAUGURAL PROCESSION And then,there was silence room of Bellingham's Royal Cafe. "Dr. Jarrett appears to be a liberal-minded man and I like that because I'm a liberal, too. "What do you students think of the president?" Rosellini asked andwas quickly launched into a discussion of the state, education and politics that lasted over an hour andled to talks with students that took in the whole evening. Should Education Blossom Out? "Thequestion now is v.hether we should allow our colleges of education to blossom out or remain in theirpresent status," the Governor said. "I have appointed a committee that is looking into education fromtop to bottom. We November 7, 1959 WESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAN Paqe 7 ---------- Collegian - 1959 November 7 - Page 8 ---------- need more and more teachers. If we are going to meet the challenge of the world today, we will have todo it through education, not arms." Originally joining Collegian editors Robertson and Bob Stevenson and three other Western students to answer questions, the Governor's night turned into a meeting withnearly 20 Western students, and covered the whole field of politics. "We have an educational systemthat ranks fifth in the nation; that doesn't mean it shouldn't be improved. One of the things our schoolsystem needs is morev guidance people. We should find out what a student is best suited for and helphim get into that field." Does this mean we should have more quantity of education or more quality? theeditor asked. "Both," Ros-ellini answered, stating that everyone should have the opportunity ofeducation, but that there were people who belong in college and people who do not. "This is whatguidance would find out. I think we should educate all people who are susceptible to education." 'IHave Never Interfered' Asked whether his appointments to college boards of trustees were trying to hiremore liberal arts men for presidencies of education colleges, he said he did not know this was actuallyso. "I have appointed men to all five institutions, however, and I have never interfered with theirappointments. I don't expect to." On the question of federal aid Ros-ellini was emphatic. "We need all we can get and it must come with local control maintained. We are going to have federal aid if we are going to meet the challenges of education today." With questions soon being fired from numbers ofstudents who joined the Collegian delegation the governor gave his ideas on other issues: "Foreignlanguages are very important in our curricula. They are the only real way for us to know other people of the world, their problems, cultures and ideas. I am very much in favor of expansion of languageprograms in our schools," he told Gerhard Langer, president of Western's German club. "TheSeattle Times has very good reason to try and see that I am politically destroyed by creating anissue over the state liquor board. But you will soon see affidavits and statements to show why theTimes is carrying on such a crusade," he told a political science major. A Completely New PolicyGranting the Collegian a final question before leaving Bellingham, the governor answered by announcing a "completely new policy." "Next session you will see, for the first time in the history of the state ofWashington, a governor presenting a budget message to the Legislature . . . I will have my ownbudgetary commission and requests for money will have a complete analysis and hearing. I don't knowspecifically what I can do about your college's request for funds for more library facilities. Of course,Western is not the only college in the state asking for money." Still, what of the fate of the Westernlibrary? "All we can do is take a good look at it and see what we can do. But I believe it is theresponsibility of a governor to look such things over and recommend. I will make a recommendation. Itwas 2 a.m. before Rosellini finished. 'I've Been Worked Over Before' It was a new look at a state official who sat down with students and talked openly, though it was obvious that no earth - shakingannouncements were made and the governor knew how to gather votes. After Rosellini was asked by ayoung Republican to sign a cocktail napkin so he could remember the time and place the end of theconference set the highlight. "May you quote me on everything? Certainly. I've been worked over bynewspapers before." It was almost as startling as being thrown out of the Faculty Council. H®N©RSPR96RAM The Severest Taskmaster The possession of a superior intellect carries with it the duty to put it to use as much as possible, according to Western's associate professor of economics Erwin S.Mayer. For this reason Western Washington is working on forming an Honors program dedicated to thesuperior student. "We are determined to be in the forefront in this state in forming an Honors program,"Dr. Mayer stated as head of the Honors program committee. He went on to say that too many of thehighly capable students find nothing challenging in their regular courses and thus fail to do the work."For these students the work is easy and they goof off if they're not challenged." Honors programs areinstituted to meet the special needs and develop the special gifts of intelligent students. Those selectedfor the program, expected to be in operation at the freshman level next spring, will be given certainprivileges and be obliged to accept other responsibilities. When they are allowed to by-pass the easier courses which they would coast through, they will have to work that much harder in the courses they do take. They will be allowed to avoid many of the themes, quizzes and term papers that seem to hinderthem and in turn be expected to work independently and become, as the committee states, "their own severest taskmasters." It has been found that these systems provide a tremendous stimulus forfaculty as well as the entire student body, along with the Honors students. "There are excitingpossibilities here," Dr. Mayer concluded, "We look forward with great interest to seeing our program,which is largely in the planning stage, get under way." INAUGURATION 'We Need a Lusty Vice' ByKAREN BAINTER "The devil's cloud has a toadstool shape and what he may carry away is not a singleperson, nor a single community, but an entire race . . ." A. Earle Birney, Professor of Eng. lish at theUniversity of British Columbia injected this sobering thought into an audience of students, townspeople, and faculty during a seminar on humanities last Thursday. It was only one of many sobering butsometimes too true, and horrifyingly real, thoughts and ideas versed during the three inaugural sessions. One result of the humanities seminar, "The Changing Face of Hubris," was the introduction of Hubrisinto the vocabulary of many in the audience who hadn't heard of the word before. Hubris is a wordpilfered from the Greeks and denotes a scornful pride or an insolent disregard of moral laws andrestraint. Tracing the origins of Hubris in Greek drama, the first speaker, Thomas Rosenmeyer,Associate Processor of Classics at the University of Washington, then delved into man's recurringhabits of competing with God and interpreting God in ways that further selfish causes. The beginnings ofman's belief in infinite powers that started with the caveman's doodlings on his cave wal!s and evolvedalong with our hubristic pride to modern day human concepts of God, was one of the chains of thought in the lecture of Herbert Muller, Professor of English and Government at Indiana University. Page 8WESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAN November 7, 1959 ---------- Collegian - 1959 November 7 - Page 9 ---------- Muller, who doesn't like the word "reacts" because it reminds him of the twitching of frog's legs, definedthe face of Hubris as "an automobile with fins." He compared our civilization, which moralists rant andrave about, with the mass corruption, cruelty, and barbarism of the middle ages and said, "Nowadayswe look tame . . . we need a good honest lusty vice." He talked of the peasant masses who've toiled allthrough history, he discussed conformism, then conjured up and tore down an image of a brave newworld of the future. Speaking next, U.B.C.'s Dr. Birney took the podium and warned, "The evidence of the past is that civilization falls . . . ancient prides must go or ancient furies will consume . . . democracyis best for developing creativity . . . but there are democracies and there are democracies and not even the best is worth saving at the cost of the human race." He talked earnestly of the hopelessness ofIndia, where every victory is a defeat, and which can only be saved by the concentrated efforts of all themajor countries of the world. Talking of prejudices, and the failure of the nations of the world to educatetheir young in unity, Birney climaxed the session by putting us in the role of Pandora trying to get the lid back onto the box. "There is no safe dose of radiation." Grayhaired and serious, A. H. Sturte-vant,professor of Genetics, at the California Institute of Technology talked slowly as his presentation opened Thursday night's science seminar. He said we are all exposed to some radiation through elements inthe soil, cosmic rays, medical X-rays, and fallout which doesn't do much harm. But the after-effects ofexcessive radiation can range from malignant growths in the person concerned, to mutations in thedecendants of the affected. Speaking next, Frederick Thieme, the Provost at the University ofWashington, went into the need for new methods to solve the unanswered questions of man's origin."We are as we are, because of what we were," Thieme declared, then discussed a variety of topicsfrom prehistoric blue-green algae, to bone residues, to the use of radioactivity in determining theage of fossils. Discussion of the changes which must take place in education during the next 10 yearswas the format of the final session "Education 1975." One obviously bitter educator, stressing theneed for revised state taxes, denounced the Washington tax structure as such: "The most fiendish tax system that could be devised couldn't match the state of Washington." They looked back over thiscountry's educational changes and prophesied 'Nowadays We Look Tame A. H. STURTEVANT H. J.MULLER Here discussing "Education in 1975" is T. R. McConnell, University of California, Louis Bruno,Pullman, Washington Superintendent of schools, J. Alan Ross, Western Washington College, andPaul D. Woodring, Western Psychology Professor on leave to the Ford Foundation. A.

Along with the usual forecast of special classes for the gifted, advanced by ability not age,and the improvement of wider use of educational T.V. came the idea of "team" teaching. A "team" wouldbe responsible for 100 or so students in a broad field and would consist of one master teacher, one ortwo other fully certified teachers, an intern teacher, and a couple of skilled community members.Talking on the subject of public schools was Louis Bruno, Superintendent of Schools in Pullman,Washington, while the American school system as a whole was handled by Paul Wood-ring ofWestern who is on leave to the Ford Foundation. College education was discussed by T. R. McConnell,from the University of California, who stressed the need for a greater variety in types of colleges to fitthe types of students so as much time won't be wasted on subjects students don't need for their ownindividual educations. Then there was silence. The auditorium was quiet and empty again until theinauguration which unfolded that afternoon, and the thoughts left behind v/ere digested and afcsorbed bythose who had the facilities to digest them. BOESE CONCERT Dull and Without Life By STACYTUCKER Somewhat of a task lies ahead of an organist who is to perform upon a strange organ. Theorgan has not reached the degree of standardization that other instruments such as the piano haveattained and while all organs conform to certain general specifications, they also differ considerably, one from the other. For this reason, most organists will not even attempt to give a concert before anaudience until they have been at least an hour in acquainting themselves with the specific instrumentupon which they are to perform. Considering these facts, however, this reviewer still does not findreason enough to excuse the mediocre quality of last week's organ recital by Raymond Boese. Hislecture "demonstration" at ten o'clock was without life and was found dull even by some music majors.He read the bulk of his talk in a mechanical manner which did not add to its already research paperquality. The reception was cancelled, thus giving no opportunity to talk with Boese. The performancewas good in spots and passable on the whole. This reviewer has not, however, heard positivecomments on it by anyone to speak of, music majors included. (Not that any remarks by musicmajors would tend to altar the content of this criticism. STUDENT UNION Dedication Set . . . UnionBoard Chairman Jack Ra-bourn has informed the Collegian that November 30 to December 6, will be setaside for dedication of the Student Union Building. Bob Poldervart, member of the Union Board, ischairman of the week's events. The initial event will be a reception in which the many potential uses ofthe building will be unfolded before a limited invited audience. Later in the week the lounge area will bededicated, an open house for the students will culminate the week's events on December 6. TheBoard plans to have art exhibits, recitals, and cofee hours in the building in the near future. Achildren's art exhibit will be held in November, according to Rabourn. RAYMOND BOESE, ORGANISTThe bulk of his talk in a mechanical manner WILD DUCK Through a Skylight . . . Daylight, dawn,dusk—the hours of the sun will be portrayed through a skylight. Angling over the stage during thecoming production of Ibsen's Wild Duck, will be something new on Western's stage; a skylight designedby technical director, Mark Flanders. Using antique furniture and combining his staging efforts withTom Aston, assistant technical director and Sue Weidman, light operator, Flanders hopes to create arealistic atmosphere for the soon-to-be-produced play. Also aiming at authenticity are the twostudents who are taking over the costume department. Betty Sue Ritchie, a senior business educationmajor, and Carol Erchinger, a junior majoring in home economics and minoring in art, have redesignedten women's costumes for the play and are now engaged in the actual sewing of them. The girls found agoldmine of dresses and furniturs in a closet belonging to Miss Erchinger's grandmother, the late Mrs.Margaret Grant of Bellingham, and a number of these articles have been donated for use in theproduction. As the various departments organize and work, plans for the "Wild Duck" take shape.Costumes, staging, lighting; these are all part of production preliminaries underway as once again allthe strings are being tied to a swift schedule for the production of another Western drama presentation.Page 10 WESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAN November 7, 1959 ---------- Collegian - 1959 November 7 - Page 11 ---------- ASB PRESIDENCY Success and Rock Hunter By LIZ SUNDSTROM You elected him—now what?Last week 426 Western students swayed by the argument, "Experience is the best teacher" supported Bob Gustavson for the ASB presidency. What can these students expect from his administration?What has experience taught Bob Gustavson? Questioned about his plans for this year, Gustavsonreadily discussed several projects he has in mind. "We are operating on a delcit budget at thepresent time, due to the overspending of several departments." (See Collegian, October 23, 1959.) Inhopes of curtailing unnecessary extravagance, Gustavson plans to scrutinize carefully all ASBexpenditures. Although this action probably won't solve the problem immediately, it should reduce costsgreatly. Gustavson also intends to revise the present administrative system to supply a more uniformprogram for student government. In the past, each new administration has brought abrupt changesin policy. As a result, incompleted projects have been dropped, and good ideas abandoned.Gustavson feels that these s u d d en changes are a waste of the student-body's time, money, andenergies. To increase operational efficiency, he will keep thorough records of all student body activities.Gustavson plans to set up a conduct calendar advising students on proper behavior and apparel forvarious occasions. Many students attend school events dressed inappropriately and seem oblivious to the use of common courtesy at functions such as the A-L assemblies, he said. His primary goal for theyear is to make student government an increasingly "interesting, worthwhile, and rewardingexperience for students." Hoping to encourage more student participation and to dispel the feeling of"complacency and lack of interest which many students have toward school activities," BobGustavson, former acting chairman, now enthroned with an official gavel, set out on the path toshowing whether success would be spoiled by Rock Hunter. In a new twist Rock Hunter would be thestudent body. BOB GUSTAVSON Elected — Now What? LEGISLATURE 'Buttons' a Strong Fourth At the lengthy meeting of the Legislature held last Wednesday in the Coffee Shop, it was the final orderof business that highlighted the meeting. A proposal was brought before the board for Finance Chairman Jerry Baker and Dr. Byron Haglund, professor of economics, to conduct research on the budgets ofpast years in order to discover present trends. It was suggested that said research could result in saving the school ten to 15 thousand dollars per year from its annual budget. It was moved that they do so.With Bob Gustavson officially seated it was time for permanent cabinet positions to be filled. Gustavsonpresented the names of Don Bevis, Norma Rice and Karen Brumstrom as possibilities for theJudicial Board. After discussion they were accepted. Miss Sharon Belchschmidt (is that right Sharon?)was suggested by the president for Opinion Board Chairman. Before her acceptance, Robinson madea motion that in the future ALL candidates MUST come to the meeting or send an informative letter to the Legislature describing their qualifications. Elections Chairman Roc Caldwell reported on the ASBpresidential election. Ballet totals were Gustavson— 436 votes, "Doc" Moody—213, DonAlder—114, and "Buttons" a strong fourth with 41 votes. Seven other ballots were cast for suchfavorite sons as Al red E. Neuman and Al Jung. Ray Knabe presented his report on leftover facilities from the old Lounge. After he listed the items, it was suggested the Union Board Chairman Jack Rabournlook over the list and pick out what could be used. Rabourn suggested that remaining chesterfields and chairs could be used at the Lakewood property. Rabourn also asked for and received $585 to purchasea Wurlitzer piano to be used in the music lounge of the building. He also announced that $421.73remained from the summer budget. Dr. Murray moved that the sum be reverted to budget control.Collegian Editor Robertson made his report on Collegian finances. According to his figures themagazine is within its budget. Clayton Hood, who played his last football game in 1954, has finally teenawarded his blanket. COFFEE HOUR Prelude to Wild Duck "The most challenging of Ibsen'sdramas"—these were the words with which Dr. William Gregory, director, referred to the forthcomingproduction of The Wild Duck. This statement may be a topic of controversy November 12 as theStudent Union conference room is once again opened to a distinguished visitor, Professor SverreArestad, a former Western student, now head of the department of Scandinavian Language andLiterature at the University of Washington, who will give a brie? analysis of the play and then answerquestions and act as discussion moderator. The meeting will be held at 3 p.m. and is open to students,faculty and townspeople. Dr. Arestad, a nationally recognized authority in his field, is the first speakerever presented here as the prelude to a production, but according to Dr. Gregory "we hope to make thisa general practice if at all possible." He strongly urged the attendance of all those interested in thedrama and went on to express this opinion of the play: "a combination of comedy, sometimes borderingon slapstick, and stark tragedy.

Perhaps the most exciting part of the annual celebration is the football game. The exuberant and intoxicatingatmosphere of the crowd is tremendous every Homecoming but this year's game may prove thrillingenough to make the high spirited majority throw their flasks away. Central Washington, currently tied forthe Evergreen Conference number one spot, provides the opposition this afternoon for the fast risingVikings. Victorious in its last two games, Western is all set to knock the Wildcats off their lofty perch. In comparing the conference records of the two clubs Central would rate as the favorites. But Central'srecord is deceiving since they have dropped three non-conference games to give them a total of three wins and four losses. The Vikings' solid forward wall has been the main reason the opposition has scored only thirteen points in the last three games. Outweighed by at least thirty pounds per man, Westernoutcharged and outplayed UBC last week while the week before they stopped Pacific Lutheran almostcompletely. Offensively there has been 100% improvement in the last two games. The biggestimprovement has been in the passing game, shown by Doug Ringenbach and Steve Hansen's combinedtotal of 185 yards against UBC. In the rushing department Ron Ladines and Sam Martin have carried theball for 283 and 201 yards respectively this season. Len Gargarello is the top pass receiver with fivecatches for 141 yards. Ladines leads the scorers with 24 points followed by Hansen with 13. A bigsurprise for the Vikings in their last two games has been the tremendous play of freshman halfbackJack Halliday. Against Pacific Lutheran. Halliday intercepted two passes and in last week's UBC game he picked off three Thunderbird aerials setting up one Western touchdown. With the tremendous spirit, builtup around Homecoming, the Vikings will have no trouble being up for this game and the final score shouldread WESTERN 27, CENTRAL 6. SHORTS ON SPORTS . . .

Page 14 WESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAN November 7, 1959 ---------- Collegian - 1959 November 7 - Page 15 ---------- FOOTBALL Vikings Come of Age By JOHN GREER The Vikings have come of age. Showing theirmost potent offensive display of the season, Western's vastly improved eleven roared to a 20-3 victoryover UBC's highly rated Thunderbirds last Saturday on the Canadian campus. The Viks collectednearly 350 yards on total offense and had at least 100 more called back on penalties. To top things offthey intercepted six Thunderbird aerials. Steve Hansen and Doug Ringenbach led the Western attackwith 131 and 114 yards respectively. Hansen collected 96 by passing and 35 on the ground whileRingenbach threw for 89 and gained 25 running. Ron La-dines remained as the Viks' top scorer as headded two touchdowns to his total. He got one on a 25 yard pass from Hansen and the other on a oneyard plunge. Len Gargarello scored the other six pointer on a 40 yard toss from Ringenbach. Westerntook the opening kickoff and marched 68 yards for their first score. The big play of the series was the 15-yard Ringenbach to Gargarello pass play that put the Viks on the UBC 25. Ladines got the score fromthe one, but Hansen missed his first kick of the season, leaving the Norsemen ahead 6-0. After anexchange of punts, Western drove to its second touchdown. With UBC on the Viking 26, Jack Hallidaypicked off a T-bird pass and returned it to the Thunderbird 40. It took just one play from there asRingenbach hit Gargarello for the score and Hansen added the PAT. In the third quarter, tackle FredKnapp recovered a UBC bobble on the Western 43 and the Viks rambled 57 yards for their third score.Hansen hit Ladines behind a screen and the big fullback drove into the end zone from the 25. Hansenagain added the PAT to close out the Vikings' scoring. The Thunderbirds' only points came in thesecond quarter when they picked up a 22 yard field goal. Bay and Champion RE 3-2610 WESTERNPLAYER a potent offensive display CO-CAPTAINS Hard Men to Replace Seniors Sam- Martin, JackSim, Ned Olson and Bill Burby have been named co-captains of the 1959 Western Washingtonfootball team. The first three all are four year lettermen, and Burby was a transfer who has lettered thepast two seasons. Martin has played right halfback in all of Coach John Kulbitski's four years atWestern. "Sam has been an outstanding ball carrier, pass receiver, and defensive halfback," stated Kul-bitski. "He'll be a hard man to replace." Martin, from Auburn, has also excelled in other sports atWestern. He has been one of the mainstays of Ray Ciszek's track squad the past three years—he runs the high hurdles, low hurdles, the relay, broad jumps, high jumps, and throws the javelin. In hisfreshman and sophomore years, Martin, who stands 6'2" and weighs 180, was on the varsity basketballsquad. His athletic prowess was recognized last spring when he was voted by the students "Athlete ofthe Year." Like Martin, Sim, a rugged 6'2", 210 lbs., has been a regular under Kulbit-ski for four seasons. Not only does the Victoria athlete stand out as an offensive center, but he is feared by opposingteams for his linebacking ability. Sim, like Martin, has been named honorable mention all-conferencethe past two seasons. Last year the players elected easy-going Jack the "Most Inspirational Player."Olson, who hails from Spokane, has put in a lot of time the past four seasons as one of Kulbitski's finest tackles. "Ollie," who stands 5'11" and scales 200 pounds, loves to open holes in the offensive line for the Viking backs. He has proven his versatility by also playing center when needed. (Ned was offensivecenter for the first game last season when Sim was out with leg boils.). Burby, whose home is in Butte,Montana, is the only single man among the four co-captains. Bill was merely a reserve end at the start of last season, but his hustle and determination soon found him a position as starting offensive guard.Burby, who is 510" and 185, has been one of the outstanding lineman in the Evergreen Conference thisyear not only on offense, but also on defense.

Children soon come to know their teachers, and they recognize sincerity." AND DR. HAGGARD WQJqiiD HAVE/SOMEWORDS for the Western student •'•'; about education\\and learning. AA "So far as education; isconcerned, there is not a better word t h a n "commencement" when applied to graduation.conversation and an exchange of ideas between themselves. Some of these ideas Dr. Haggardexpressed earlier to the Collegian this week. "The first thought I have is that I wish to extend bestwishes to my successor in the solution of the problems incident to growth during the years ahead."Then would come the ideas and ideals based upon twenty years of administration in the College's toppost . . . and based upon an entire career in education. He would be concerned with the responsibility oftraining teachers. "This College is preparing," One never ceases to learn and thus his education willcontinue throughout his life. It is truly the commencement for the sincere, capable person. This is adifferent person from he who is going to college just to get through." "The prospective teacher who is atWestern," explains the President "should be here because of the quality of our teacher educationprogram. For others it would be for the Arts and Sciences courses, the two years of junior college, andthe extensiveness of our program— which also allows one year of graduate work." Explaining hisown satisfactions during his administration, Dr. Haggard states that the growth of the College is thegreatest. He means the expansion of the College program, the physical improvements to the campus,and the increased student enrollment. He is especially pleased with the number of students whohave graduated with teaching degrees from 1949 to 1958. They stand this way: Western 2852 U. of W.2847 Next highest: some 300 lower.

With these words to her 15- membercommittee of the whole, chairman Pat Xelly launched the1959 WUS campaign on the Western campxis. The comhiit-tee quickly moved to the following decisions: • Goal of the drive will be $1,500. •Slogan is to be "That learning may not die." BUT THERE-ARE more basic issues than these.Questions like "what is WUS?" "Why does it exist?" "What can I do to help?" These are the questionswe asked Miss Kelly. 'Well," the pert chairman began," WUS' is an international free world agencywhich is \ mainly supported by contributions from students." "IF EVERY STUDENT at Westernwould contribute 50c we would meet our goal. That price may be just the price of a lunch for you, but toa foreign student it may mean the opportunity to begin or continue study. "This is truly a worthwhileinvestment in humanity." Scanning the WUS leaflets, Miss Kelly pointed to a $550, 000 program thisyear to provide scholarships for refugee students, (including Algerians) in France, Germany, Sweden,Switzerland and Britain. IN ADDITION, WUS will be especially interested in A f r i c an scholars. Amajor university in South Africa is closed to African Negroes; noted regional WUS director GladysLawther said in her fall visit to the College, "some African cities the size of Belling-ham have only onedoctor." Mrs. Lawther went into debt to make a trip on her own around the world, during which time shevisited many WUS projects. "One of the things that Mrs. Lawther told us was that there are 2,000known student tubercular cases in Japan." "WE HAVE THE advantage of good health," continuedMiss Kelly, "and take many things for granted —like having a place to live and having books forclasses. Others do not begin to have our advantages. In one place in India, for example, students haveto walk 50 miles to school. WUS would like to build a youth hostel there.

Phone RE 3-6870 Magnolia Commercial ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1959 February 20 - Page 3 ---------- February 20, 1959 WESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAN Page 3 Field day at the Legislature:Amending the Amendments. BY LYLE PRICE AFTER HEARING ITS SPECIAL COMMITTEE report,Western's student legislators thought for a while Wednesday that they had gotten those proposedconstitutional amendments out of the way. But they were wrong. After the report was heardWednesday, Legislator Bruce Hannaford quickly moved that the committee's three recommendationsbe adopted. The recommendation would also rescind the Legislature's action of January 21 pertainingto amendments. But after picking up a second, the motion ran into trouble in the form of muchdiscussion, if not outright opposition. ONE POINT AT ISSUE WAS ELIGIBILITY requirements forAssociated Student Body offices. When asked at what exact moment the requirements would belevied, Hannaford offered the interpretation that a candidate (for instance, for ASB President) could win election to the office although he might not fulfill the requirements at the time of election. This wouldhold, said Hannaford, if he were eligible by the time he took office. ; Dave Amos and Dr. MoyleCederstrom, adviser, held that the recommendations as stated were ambiguous. At this pointRabourn moved to add to the Hannaford motion by inserting clarifying phrases in the three amendmentrecommendations. He also moved to add a fourth amendment. The. addition would require a candidatefor most ASB offices to be eligible at the time he applied The exceptions in ASB positions would beLegislative and judicial. Rabourn's added proposal would have Legislative eligibility included. "Is thisprecisely the opposite of what you originally meant?" Dr. Cederstrom asked of Hannaford. The graduatestudent nodded his head in agreement. "Why," asked Legislator Leo Dodd, "is it the opposite?" Doddhad seconded the Rabourn addition to the main motion. HANNAFORD THEN POINTED OUT that acommittee of five legislators had made the recommendations and that Rabourn had not only been amember of the committee, but had voted in favor of the recommendation. Rabourn countered, that hefelt clarification and improvements should be made even if thought of tardily. RABOURN'S MOVE wouldseem to do more than change just the time element. It would state literally, for instance, "to be eligible for the election to the office of Legislator, a student must have completed at least two quarters ofresident work at WWCE." Currently change and interpretation would literally mean that a write-incandidate could not be eligible to be a Legislator unless he fulfilled requirements. As Dr. Cederstrom once implied, a write-in candidate does not apply and hence escapes all requirements of one whoapplies —at least in a high school which he recalls once elected the waitress down the street as Queen of the Senior Prom. The matter of recommendations and amendments was not resolved, and theLegislature unanimously voted to shuffle back the report to the committee.

This were second among 20schools in US Could Have Had Satellite Orbited in 1956, Ley Reports By DICK PERRY "IF PROJECTORBITER had heen left alone, the United States would have put a satellite into orbit by 1956." Project Orbiter was the joint Army- Navy satellite program of this country started in 1954 and which was shelved in 1955 for Project Vanguard. s This move, according to scientist Willy Ley, last Tuesday's Artistsand Lecturers speaker, was a prime reason why Russia beat the United States in putting the first Iman-made satellite into orbit in 1957. LEY, IN HIS TALK "Conquest of Space," predicted that within fiveyears we will send a manned vehicle into orbit, and man will travel around the moon without landingthere and return to earth. He also said that within this same period we will be taking "shots" at ourneighboring planets, Mars and Venus. "Most p e o p l e , " Ley said, "agree that the Space Age began when Sputnik I was sent into orbit, October 4, 1957." He then referred to this as "year 2" of the SpaceAge. HE WENT ON TO SAY, however, that the basic concept for a man-made orbiting satellite datesback to the 17th century and Sir Issac Newton. Newton theorized that if an object could attain a velocityof five miles per second in a horizontal path with the earth, it would remain in orbit around the earth."But this had to remain a theory Save with our CASH AND CARRY DISCOUNT Vienna Cleaners 206 E.Magnolia 1-DAY SHIRT SERVICE Phone REgent 4-7620 for sometime." Ley said. It wasn't until thestart of the 20th century that scientists began to wonder if rockets could be made to attain suchvelocities. By 1911 the idea of "stagging" was patented by two scientists. From this our idea of a 3-stage rocket developed. Work began in earnest in 1948, and in February, 1949, the first man-madeobject was hurled into empty space by this country. After Project Vanguard failed to put a satellite intoorbit in December, 1957, Ley said, "'Orbiter' was quietly revived and called 'Jupiter C." On January 31, 1958, "Explorer I" was put into orbit. ON THE QUESTION, "What are we going to see this year?" hesaid that there are two groups working on various projects. One, a civilian group, will take eight or more"shots" this year. These will include a plastic-aluminum balloon which will inflate after it goes intoorbit. It will be 100 feet in diameter, be very visible, and may have navigational value. THE OTHERGROUP, a contingent of scientists working -for the military, will also take several "shots," includingone at the moon comparable to the recent Russian "moon" rocket. with no previous speechexperience.)

PLC racked up their 35th straight Conference victory in the contest last Thursday, as thescoring of Chuck Curtis, Jim VanBeek and Roger Iverson was too much for the Norsemen to handle. The contest was close throughout the first half however, as Western held within three points of theirtalented opponents. The Lutes came storming out for the second half and promptly ran away with thegame as - Western found trouble in hit ting the hoop. In one six minute period, the Norsemen got only a single point, while Iverson alone potted 14 in about the same amount of time. IVERSON'S 22COUNTERS were high for the contest, followed by Curtis with 20 and VanBeek with 18. Western's topguns were Bay Kycek who collected 17 points and 19 rebounds, and Nello Morganti who picked up 12.A 30 point effort by all- Conference forward Bill Coordes was too much for the Vikings as they lost theirsecond league test in a row. The Wildcats led from the opening tip off and the Norsemen committed 30personals in trying to get back into the game.

Although the Viking mermen have had a disappointing season, they are improving steadily,and should do better in these last few weeks of the Evergreen Conference campaign. The Vikings are ayoung squad which has been gaining experience all year, and that will make a better accounting of itselfthe remainder of the season. Three important men have been added to the team, as Coach John Kulbitskiis looking toward the Conference meet March 6-7 at the College of Puget Sound. Letterman ColeComings has been out with an injured knee, but is ready to go, and should pick up points in the free style events. Al Coghill, another letterman, has not been able to participate thus far this year because hehas had to work. Coghill is also a free style specialist. The third newcomer is John Guberd, who has justbecome eligible. Kulbitski has had no one to enter in the butterfly, but now Guberd is on hand for theVikings in this event. The Vikings have two meets here at Western this weekend. This afternoon at 3:30p.m. they tangle with the Eastern Savages, and tomorrow at 11 a.m. are slated to meet Oregon StateCollege. Two weeks ago Western lost to Eastern, 57-25 at Cheney, but Coach Kulbitski points to the fact that all the events were close, and could have gone either way. Here at Western with more swimmersavailable, Kulbitski and Assistant Coach Chuck Stutz have high hopes of dropping the Savages. Although Coach Jack Hubbard's basketball squad has now dropped seven games,, the team is practically a shoe-in for the NAIA district playoffs which will be played March 2-4. Two teams from each side of themountains are selected to participate. Pacific Lutheran will be one selection from this side, and Westernlooks to be the other. Among other candidates, Seattle Pacific, St. Martins, College of Puget Sound, and the University of British Columbia have all been defeated by Western. From the other side, EasternWashington and either Gonzaga or Central Washington will probably be picked. Whitworth is also inthe running. Western's hoop team has dropped two straight conference games, and now has a dog fighton its hands to retain third place. Two victories this weekend are essential. Monday nighfs game withUBC is the last of Western's regular season campaign. Bill Wright and Nello Morganti have both beenslumping scoring-wise of late, but the two are still well in front of all other Vikings in this department.Wright has scored 206 points and Morganti 205, both for 11.4 averages. Ray Kycek and Windy Weldhave been the top point producers of late, but both of them are still below double figures. STOPPING THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST'S third leading scorer Ray Wilson and beating the second best team in theEvergreen Conference are the problems facing Jack Hubbard's basketballers this weekend. EasternWashington will furnish the opposition on Friday and Whitworth ends the Vikings' final weekend athome on Saturday. Western will have to win at least one Of the two games to insure a third-place finish. The Vikings are tentatively scheduled to meet Pacific Lutheran in the NAIA district playoffs. Thewinner of that game will play the winner of the Eastern Whitworth game. The winner of this match willrepresent the Northwest in the national tournament at Kansas City. WASHBURN HAS SCORED 478POINTS to average 21.7 points for the fourth-place Whitworth five. Another Whitworth player who hasshown well this year is Al Rolf, a 6-8 center. The Viks have beat the Whitman squad once this year, butthe boys from east of the mountains have improved considerably since the start of the season.Eastern handed the Viks a defeat earlier in the season and are currently riding in second place in theconference. Kent Mathison and Al Fackler have done the majority of Eastern's scoring this year.Western Rugby Squad Plays Here Tomorrow EAGER TO RESUME action after postponement of lastweek's game, Coach Joe Davies and his Western rngby team will pit their strength against the University of British Columbia Tomahawks tomorrow at 1:30 p. m. on Western's campus field. The Tomahawks,one of UBC's better rugby teams, will be out to break the Viking win streak and avenge the early season defeat of another UBC squad at the hands of the Western team. The Viks beat the UBC Chiefs in theseason opener. COACH DAVIES is trying to get more speed in the lineup and will revise his startingteam to give an opportunity to players who have been progressing well in practice. A mixup in scheduling caused the cancelling of last week's game between these two teams. Cancellation of the game wasreceived too late for rescheduling with another team. A home-and-home series will be scheduled witha Victoria, B. C, team at a later date.

Since ^ihis is not a true statement, it is in simpler terms, a lie. I would offer theseexplanations. First, Chief Justice Speck did not make the quoted statement.

Sept. 24, 1956 didders Downed Saturday Western Scores On80-Yard Push BY JOHN BETROZOFF It was a case of too much beef and experience to buck lastSaturday night when the Western Vikings opened their 1956 campaign against the talent-ladenLewis and. Clark Pioneers at Battersby Field. The Portland club went home with a 31-7 victory. Briefoffensive spurts showed future possibilities for the green Se-home eleven and their multiple offense.The split T and double wing clicked well at times with Bruce. Randall and Bill Karawacki leading theway. The Pioners battered the Viking forward wall all night, combining the running with a superb aerialattack. Western battled back to stop several LC thrusts but the power-packed backfield finally took its toll. Things went bad from the start for the Viks. Western recovered their opening kickoff on the LC 16-yard line, but the Viks were offside on the kickoff. Western then stopped the Pioners dead after thesecond kick only to have the LC punt fumbled on the Viking 18. Lewis and Clark took it over from thenine after four plays. In the second quarter, Western's (Continued on Page 4) Weldon Lamb, freshman,enters the first time. • gt;. ,«; \^ college life and Highland Hall for Plan Student Leader Camp A fullweekend conference is slated for Western student leaders in the middle of October. Conferencechairman Rosemarie Oldow says Black Mountain Lodge Enrollment Tremendous Responsibility TO THE STUDENTS: It is a genuine pleasure today to extend greetings to the hew and returning students. It hasbeen very inspiring since last Thursday observing so many new students, freshmen and transfers,' busy.completing their registrations and orienting themselves to a new educational environment, and so manyreturning students completing their registrations. Three years ago only 1288 students were on thiscampus^ It is predicted that approximately 2000 will enroll this fall. This, if it takes place, is both atremendous responsibility and a significant opportunity for all of us. If our standards are to be upheld,cooperation between faculty and staff and the student hpdy will be required this year as never before.Our tradition of friendly relationships, mutual understanding, and democracy must be maintained. As weemerge frojn, the small college classification, we are anxious that we retain the spirit and atmosphere ofthe small college, which if wre do, our interest in the individual student will be continued. : I , .; - \ \ \.

EntranceTotal Expected to Surpass 2000 New Men's Dorm Opens Doors to Accommodate Some of RecordTotal Western enrollment was expected to spiral to an all-time high this week as returning studentsbegan arriving today on the heels of freshmen and transfers whoN have just finished their Welcome Week indoctrination. A helping hand in one of the biggest problems created by this overflow—housing—wasoffered as the newly-finished MRH addition opened its doors to 100 men. Highland Hall, brand newaddition to MRH, opened its doors for the first time last week, with accommodations for 109 men.Forty-eight rooms in a two-story U-shape building greeted arrivals as they began pouring inWednesday. Features of the rooms were built-in wardrobes and desks, along with" other conveniences of modern residence halls. The base of the U-shape houses a lounge, storage room, an apartment forthe house mother and a central laundry room. SOUTH OF MRH Located in a grove of trees just south of MRH, the new annex features a combination of wood siding and brick. The building was designed byLeonard Bindon, Seattle architect. At a total cost of approximately $325,000, including architect's fees, sales tax, furnishings and miscellaneous expenses, construction began on the addition in early1956, so it would be completed in time for arrival of fall quarter entrants. Other halls were filled, too, assome of the houses near campus began turning away students as early as last week. Approximately120 mechanical arrivals found, however, that they would not have to be turned out on the streets. Roomfor that many cars is now available (exclusive of the black-top area) with the opening this summer ofthe parking area in front of Edens Hall. Population at Western was expected to topple all records ashundreds of new students finished registering and old students began returning to campus for finalregistration, this week. "Most of us are betting it will hit something over 2,000," Donald Ferris,registrar, told the Collegian. Twenty-three per cent more students had pre-registered last Springquarter than the year before, his office has indicated. And in August over six hundred freshmen hadapplications on file, while two hundred transfers were recorded. Fees, forms and frustrations metfreshmen last week as their welcome week procedure began. Assemblies to instruct, assemblies toacquaint and assemblies to inform were only part of the three-day schedule of events that includedplacement tests, automobile tours of Bellingham, counseling, registration, newcomers* dances,aptitude tests and preference records for the all-time high number of frosh and transfers. The final flood-wave of humans was expected today as returning students arrived to complete registration beforeclasses begin tomorrow. They arrived in time for the last stages of the welcome ceremonies whichincluded an all-student assembly at 10 a. m. today and an open house for all students, sponsored byAWS, which begins at 2:30 and extends through 4 this afternoon. Schedule for Returning $tudent$tHundreds of old students arrive today for the completion of their registration before classes begintomorrow.

Football, probably the biggest student-sponsored operation (costing over $10,000 yearly), basketball, baseball and other sports are financed from the student government fee. Athletic scholarships, just inaugurated by student government this Spring,are also paid for from this fee. FEE LAUNCHES SUB In addition, student government, through theStudent Union Committee, plans and directs construction of the Student Union Building to be readyfor use on this campus in 1958. The $4.50 fee brought the idea of a SUB—for years an idea thatremained an idea—out of the dream stage, so that its construction will be launched in 1957.

You are wondering if you have chosen the right place to "spend the mostimportant four years of yptif Ufe. And we, the experienced ancients, the greybeard juniors and seniors(and even the sophomores) are being looked to as fountains of knowledge pertaining to the folklore andlegend surrounding Old Western. Herewith the ancients speak: The first things you will becomeacquainted with are the numerous hoary old jokes which have gained a measure of respectability through sheer old age, and which are re surrected and retold at every as lt; sembly or bull session. Just a fewof these: in your first few days here you will hear Old Main facetiously referred to as Old Mange; you willhear the campus lawns referred to as Dr. Haggard's personal property, with grossly exaggerated remarks as to the punishment he inflicts upon persons violating the verdant purity of bis grassy plains.

Rev. Alfred Dale, USCFleader, said the students were presented with a four-phase introduction to Western, its instructors,leaders and religious facilities, at the S i l v er Lake camp. Dr. Albert Van Aver, Dr. Sene Carlile, Dr.William Budd and William Dittricn, told the new students for what purpose professors thought students were at Western. Also on hand from the College were ASB President Ken Moffett, Lynda Sam-, nelsonand RosemarJe Oldow to introduce Western's student body activities and represent its studentgovernment. The group was also told of the facilities offered by the city of Bellingham by ministers frommany of the denominational churches in (Continued on Page 4) Want the 'Confidential' Truth? Do youwant the "inside story/' the super scoop, the "Confidential" truth? So do we. But right now we're lookingfor some super sjeuths to track down these slippery facts. In other words, we're, looking for a staff. Forfreshman especially, the Collegian offers great opportunity.. Publications offers him an open door to the"inside story" of the working of sudent activities, the opportunity of Sitting to know the people who know.And on this college publication, freshmen are welcome; so are any other people infretttd. If you alreadyhave experience from high school journalism, or from other college publications, there is a place for you on the staff immediately. Drop into room 126 in Old Main and see us. If you have no experience, you can still join the staff before the quarter is over by registering with the English 200 class (college newspaper). You can earn English credits for most work in publications. And if you have made Group 7 in thoentrance tests you may substitute English 200 for English 100 (freshman English). If you want to workyour way to the top of the masthead where there are salaried positions (where you can draw as much as$20 per week), now is the time to begin. Awards and college credit are also given for work in journalism."Investigate" the possibilities (headquarters room 126).

And if it is, it's only one of the many features emcee BuzzLawrence is planning for the streamlining of Western's own student radio program, Viking Turntable. With a new format, hew organization and completely new style, Viking Turntable takes to the airbeginning October 6 on station KPUG. Every Saturday night from 9:30 to 11:30 (except whenbroadcast of Western football games are carried by that station), KPUG will broadcast the programplanned and emceed by Western students. "Anything and everything will be included" on the program,emcee Lawrence said. "We welcome requests. If they want to hear popular music, we'll play it . . . ifthey want to hear Brahms, we'll play it . . . even if they request Elvis, we'll play it." • Interviews ofstudents working on campus events, appearing in campus productions; interviews on controversialcampus issues and interviews of personalities in the news will be part of the program.

A bad pass from center gave Lewis and Clark its second TD, taking over from the Vik 20,making it 13-0 at halftime. Western provided the first action to open the second half, an 80-yardtouchdown jaunt, climaxed by a beautiful 46-yard pass and run play from Randall to Karwacki. Theextra point was added by Karwacki making it 13-7, the closest the Vikings could get the rest of thenight. Lewis and Clark then went to work for two touchdowns in the third quarter. One came on anintercepted pass and the other on a Viking fumble on the local's 35. The Portland outfit wrapped upscoring for the night with a final tally in the final period. Bruce Randall and LC's Gene Flippin were takenout of the ball game in the third after a brief game of fisticuffs. The temper tantrum came following a 29-yard pass play that put the ball on Western's two-yard stripe. Flag Football Starts Monday Through the tremendous success of the intramural flag football program last fall, the PE director, Ray Ciszek, hasannounced plans for an even bigger league this fall. First game is tentatively scheduled for next Monday, Oct. 1. Individuals are urged to get teams lined up immediately. Persons lining up the teams can getentry blanks from Jack Hubbard at his office in the PE Building. The directors have not set a maximum on the number of teams. Nine teams were entered in the league last year, according to Ciszek. Heexpects that number to be topped because of the interest shown last fall in the games. Two fields will be used for the flag schedule which will run over a three week period. FLOWERS Ph. 4999 for everyoccasion Bay Champion WANT TO START EATING AGAIN?

He wasnamed head coach after the resignation of Charles Lappenbusch, who served 23 years at the post. Anex-Minnesota center on three championship teams, one a national championship, Kulbitski has coached high school and college teams. His high school squads never finished lower than second.

The field has narrowed to approximately 60 butKulbitski looks for more grid-ders when school opens this week. "We worked on a lot of fundamentalsearlier," stated Kulbitski, "and we used new defensive and offensive formations. These formationsare entirely new to the boys but I have been very satisfied with the progress they are making." The newmentor has been experimenting at the end position where he is a little short in depth. He is alsojuggling the backfield assignments to get the best combination. Injuries? A major item in last year'sinitial turnouts, Kulbitski has been fortunate so far with no major injuries. Sophomore Dick Brozovich, anew man on the Vik squad, suffered a pulled leg muscle last week but will be in action Saturday.Monte Bianchi and Rod Schott were out a couple days with the flu last week.

By JOHN BETROZOFF Here we are with a new year to work with. I want to welcome all the new students to Western Washington and to welcome back all the returning students.We "oldtimers" hope you new students have enjoyed your first few days at Western. You have a jump onthe returning students in seeing the Vik football team already, (whether you were impressed ordepressed is another matter). 1955-56 ROUNDUP NOT TOO BRIGHT Briefly summing up the sportworld of last year: A last Th football, tied for last in basketball, second in baseball, second in track,second in golf, eliminated in conference tennis meet, and most important—a championship inswimming. Not too impressive but that is the record. In defense, it actually wasn't that bad, consideringall the close games and superb performances the Viks put on at times. The only trouble was that there weren't enough times. It was a messed up year. CONTROVERSARY ALL YEAR AT WESTERN This isthe first year the student body has appropriated funds for-athletic scholarships. Sounds funny in • lightof all the coast league-scandals on athletic funds. Nevertheless, the coaches were slowly being"squeezed" out of the picture. They got no support to speak of. Then all heck broke loose last year—theBOC set up athletic funds. Parties", immediately tried to block the funds. They wanted the students tovote-on the funds, thinking it would never carry. Well, it carried unanimously; In fact, it passedtwice—they had to hold the election twice because someone stuffed the ballot box. "It wasn't thesporting thing to do" if I may borrow a quote. FOOTBALL SQUAD LOOKS OK—SEE MORE FIRSTKinda early to praise or predict on our football squad, but r don't think we have to worry about our newcoach. Kulbitski is a really sincere man who has had a lot of experience in coaching. The squad likeshim, Let's wait a week or two before we praise or predict. We can mention a few things, however. Forthose who didn't eyeball the program at the game Saturday (everyone went I hope), here are a few facts.Letterman Ed Melbourne, tackle, tips the heaviest scale at 235. There are: five lightest men at 160:Dwayne Lane, Jim Gard, Bill Karwacki, Ralph Hilt, and Louie McCord. All new faces on the Vik fold.There are 21 freshmen on the squad.

Watched Him OK The opposition's halfback was running wild against the home squad so the coach sent in a young safety man to watch him.

Later, the separate classes will select their classbeauties to compete for H.C. princesses and Queen; and the chosen ones will reign at all H.C. affairsafter being installed at the Coronation Assembly on November 2. Organized houses are urged by theco-chairmen to begin thinking about their skits and house displays. These skits, after passing a facultyand student elimination, will be presented to the students, faculty, and alumni, as well as totownspeople, at the College Auditorium following} the pep rally, parade, and bonfire. Our returningalumni will be welcomed at a Coffee Hour and Smorgasbord on Saturday, November 3. They will thrillat the exciting moments . offered on Saturday afternoon as the Western Vikings play host to theEastern Savages in the Homecoming football game. Rain, or shine, the grandstands will be packedwith students, alumni and faculty, all cheering our new team on to victory. Climax of the weekend and awelcome sight to the new weary co-chairmen is a formal dance in honor of the Queen. A well knownband, to be announced later, will provide the music as everyone dances in the beautifully decoratedArmory. It's a pleasure to welcome each and every one of you to WWCE and to wish you well in yourstay at Western. I am certain that within just a short time you will be considering this your second home.

Attend as many of these as possible; *—z —- -T_ it will make your stay here much moreenjoyable. You will have opportunity to become members of many different clubs and organizations.In your search for activities that interest you be sure to include' your student government at Western. It is a very fine organization. Although at the present time you (freshmen) can't run for the BOCpositions, you can take an active part by serving on committees and here Vice-President Tells ofStudent Activity Opportunities for Frosh Howdy, fellow college students and welcome to Western. Asyou probably already know ^Vestern prides itself with being the friendliest school on the Coast. Isincerely* hope you have found it that way, thus far. As the year rolls by you will come to realize yourself how fortunate you were in choosing Western, but I thought this would be a good time to point out someof the things which will shape that realiza- : : tion. TOP PROFS Probably the main reason you came to college was a quest for knowledge. The professors at Western are at the top of the list. Many of themhave received national,acclaim as being tops in their fields. College life is more than just keeping upwith your studies. You are here to develop more than just a sound vocabulary. A n intelligent, well -rounded, social being is what college strives to put out. For this purpose we have at Western a wealth of extra-curricular activities. MANY OPPORTUNITIES For those interested in publi- LITTLE MAN ONCAMPUS By Bibler Yes, He Is Indeed... is where much of the actual work is done.

For those interested inspeaking, freshmen are welcome to join our forensics teams which have won tournamentsthroughout the state and Northwest. As far as athletics goes Western has always been in thereplugging. With a new football coach and basketball coach new last year, it looks like an interestingseason for athletics. In baseball Western always shines. Those who would like to play, contact thecoaches; those who don't can help Western go in sports by backing up the- team to the hilt. For thosewho don't like varsity and cheering, there is a vast intramural program. A raft of clubs, varying fromscientific to athletic, awaits the freshman. The fees you paid at registration are used for and by you. TheBoard of Control, y o u r student representatives, spends this money as the governing body ofstudents. You have a financial interest in student government at Western and are asked to take anactive interest in it. Even freshmen may file and run for the Board of Control. NO HISTORY CLASSStudent government at Western is more than a class for history students. It is the governing body of the students—who, last year, set plans for the financing of a Student Union Building; it is agoverning body which provides for, and supports, varsity athletics, forensics and student publications.Western is a combination of many things. I hope you catch the spirit of this college fast and that youcan develop yourself into the type of citizen, professional person, and parent, you want to be. It's up to you. JOEL CARLSON Vice-president, ASWWCE HE has tramped through sixteen dozen registrationlines, had the traditions, codes and customs of Western blared at him from publications, podiums andperspiring people, who with effusive outpourings of welcome and waves of smiles, have either soaked orsunk him with the idea that he is indeed . . . HE has stood in line until his feet ache^has signed cardsand papers until his fingers falter and has read so much -printed matter that his eyes are ready to close.And now HIS trembling fingers and bloodshot eyes come to rest on this last piece of propagandacalculated to convince him that he is indeed . . . Yes, HE is the weary freshman, who will find thatcollege is no frolic and no funeral. Who will find that he won't be pushed, pampered or pressed intolearning. Who will have more freedom of choice than high school has ever offered and will find itnecessary to depend upon himself and his own resources more than ever before. HE will soon knowWestern-for what it is. That is the green grass, the weathered traditions, the human professors, theinhuman assignments, the unlimited opportunities in student affairs and government, the good times, thebad times, the clubs and organizations that will anticipate him and seek him out to the ends of the*campus. And after he knows that Western is for him he will be even more impressed that he is indeed . .. But HE is tired now. The tests have found things in him that he never knew he had, and taken more from him than he had to. offer. He has met so many people that tomorrow he will walk up to many of themand, embarrassingly, ask them for their names again. He will wander the halls in a daze for a few weeks,but when he recovers he will be able to stand before a Senate investigating committee and rattle off hisname, address, place of birth, parents' names, occupation, and age, like a teletype machine. Buttomorrow he begins to become a part of this^ new thing called college—and the tomorrow after that hewill be an indespensable part of it. Several tomorrows from now HE will find HIMSELF writing inpublications, standing on podium and smiling profusely in a concentrated effort to let an- • \Y/CI("*{"}AA E other new freshman know I l V C L . v * w / r lC that he is indeed c I Tests Mag Be Beneficial,But Moaning, Groaning Still Heard BY CAROL JENSEN Woe betide the poor frosh. He's been oncampus only a few days and already he feels tested to death. The only words of consolation upperclassmen can offer is "You ain't seen nothing yet. Wait until finals week." The tests freshmen-havetaken or will take, are strictly for their benefit. The results will help the student and his counselor planhis college career in line with his abilities and interests. CHANGE ATTITUDE There is a major change in college attitude regarding two test results. These are the English and math tests. The College feels that the student should enter school with a certain basic knowledge of these two fields. Those whodon't meet these standards will have three quarters to clear their deficiency. For the first time aregistration fee of $5 will be charged for English 3 and Math. 3, both non-credit courses. This move-isto help remove some of the b u r d e n of expenses of the College for material the student should havegotten in high school. TESTS OMITTED In the interest of streamlining the tests, the Nelson-DennyReading test has been omitted. It was a repeat of much of the material in other tests. The KuderPreference Record demonstrates the major areas of the testee's interests and is helpful in professionalcounseling. Take heart, Frosh. These tests are probably the last you will take in your college careerthat won't require burning the midnight oil.

Interesting point is thatthe building is broken into groups of twelve students . . . each group more or less separated from theother.

Observing them during practice the other day, they had real snap and quality.NOTE OP INTEREST: the gym has a new floor—that's why the dance last Saturday night was a sock-hop.

Dr. Walter has the College dance band working hard for the mixer nextFriday night. They made their initial appearance at Saturday morning's assembly, playing three numbers . . . sound like a moving group. Buzz Lawrence of "Viking Turntable" (KPUG—Sat. 9:30-11:30 p. m.) tells us he now has a two hour show. Says he will play anything anybody wants—"Bach, Beethoven . . . even (with arched eyebrow) Elvis."

Dear Mr. Simpson;What is the purpose of going to college? Most of us probably feel that the purpose is to obtain aneducation. In order to obtain this education it is necessary to study, often using the facilities oi' theLibrary. Activities also are important. The importance of learning to live with others in the dorms orhouses cannot be denied either. Part of this living together is the attendance of house meetings. Doesthis mean that house meetings should come before studies? I think not. It does not seem right, therefore, to impose a punishment on a person who was studying at the Library just because this person misseda house meeting. This happened to a girl at Edens Hall. She had not come in later than the regularclosing hours of 10:45 pirn. She had done nothing unbecoming to a lady. Her studying instead ofattending the house meeting drew her the severe punishment of nine campuses. Punishment forstudying is a violation of the purpose of college, and is unfair. Perhaps other readers might have some comments on this situation. Sincerely, Elva Naff (Ed. Note) Amen. I'm on your side. To The Editor;Judging from Homecoming Skit Night's primitive exhibition, am I to be led to believe that Americanhumor has descended into a morbid state of unhealthy degradation? Or has American humor alwaysbeen sick? The seeming inability of the audience to discern between the decent joke and the crudeone was a most disappointing observation. Shall I bring the news back home to the Philippines thatAmerica is the "Trail's End"? Perhaps we need more people like Jerome Glass who can lift us to ahigher level of culture, and less pipe-smoking Ivy Leaguers who with their constant wailing and moaningdrag innocent tribal natives with them. Sincerely, Myrna Gill Homecoming was a great success lastweek! There was more planning put into that one week than for any activity last year. I have never seenso many activities coordinated and operated with so few problems. I think that Jerry Caton and KarenJohnson deserve a personal word from each ot you. Many people have approached me in the past weekor so, which if nothing else, proves that the space in the paper is not going to waste en total. It must besaid that most of those people are either on one side or the other, and very few don't care for a marchingbaiid. The only people against the issue seem to be the band members and their affiliated groups. I'mstill looking for your comments in a letter. How many of you saw the parade on Saturday? If you are oneof those who noticed the floats as they went by, you undoubtly saw the winning float by the sophomoreclass. This entry was a covered wagon built out of tin foil that had a rather professional look about it. It has always been thought, at least in this quarter, that the floats were to be limited in cost and built byamateurs. From the unconfirmed rumors echoing about, it would seem that this work was insured for$2000 and would not have been taken out in the rain. Perhaps I was misinformed. If not, it may benecessary to issue rules limiting the amount of monies to be used in the construction of floats. Nextweek is National Education Week and there are going to be big doings on campus. Among the benefits of the week's activities will be a little quiz to enable the student to find out what his T.Q. is.

Outwardly it is beautifuland graceful in spite of its massive size. But inwardly something is missing. The Building is well-equipped, and strides are being made to make it even more so. A planetarium is being worked on, andbefore too long the structure will contain a seismograph. The classrooms are comfortable and well-lighted. But still something is missing. Walking in the halls or sitting in class, a student can't help but feel asthough he were in a bomb shelter, or a prison at best. The dark-grayish walls, ceilings, floors andstairwells give a depressing atmosphere to an otherwise splendid new building. I realize that atmosphere is less important than adequate facilities. I also realize the great cost of painting the majority of thisbarren, empty interior. I could understand not painting the interior for a year or two due to limited finances. However, to postpone this project indefinitely would be a great mistake. And I understand that no plansare being made for future painting. We have a wonderful building. Why not make it even more wonderful?Science is cold and hard as it is, without having a cold, hard atmosphere. I'm sure I speak for the majority of the students when I appeal for something to be done to liven up the interior of our wonderful newScience Building. Next Tuesday is election day, and it is important for those of you eligibles to exerciseyour voting privilege. Government cannot be representative unless each individual makes it so. TheCollegian is supporting the local Civic Field issue. All of you have by now seen Bel ingham's best facilityfor football, that ancient, weather-beaten, mud-bogged, Battersby Field. Last year (the Civic Fieldproposal would have passed had all the College eligibles voted. It lost by a scant 50 votes. Let's notmake the same mistake this year that we made last year. Vote! (Ed. Note— Several letters came in toolate for publication, and will not be used until the next issue on Nov. 16. Monday at 5 p. m. is the absolute deadline for letters.) CIVIC FIELD RALLY Eill Zagelow and Gary Norman have been appointed co-chairmen of the Norsemen sponsored Civic Field rally, Monday, Nov. 7. The rally, to be conductedthroughout the city of Bellingham, will serve as a reminder to the voters of Bellingham to vote lor theCivic Field proposal. All clubs on campus have been invited to take part by the Norsemen, who areacting as organizers only. The rally will begin at 7 p.m. in front of the Industrial Arts Building and willproceed downtown with a police escort. "Both Bellingham and Western will profit by a Civic Field,"stated Zagelow, "and a strong showing by the College will show the people of Bellingham thatWestern is willing to help out in this respect." All interested persons are urged to contact one of theoificers of the Norsemen Club or leave their names with the Dean of Men.

D'Andrea's stand comes as a result oi. the recentLegislature battle with Jerome Glass on the marching band de-emphasis program, started at the adventof Dr. Jarrett's administration last year. When asked to comment on the program Glass replied, "I feelthat I would be asking entirely too much of the band members to require that they spend five to ten hours every week drilling for halftime entertainment, when they could be spending that time furthering theirown musical ability." "Not only does a marching band require time," Glass continued, "but it isexpensive." As to the expense, it was found that the greatest single cost incurred by the band in thepast has been the purchase and maintenance of uniforms, which are only used four or five times eachyear, according to D'Andrea. There has been a good deal of furor raised about "The Letter" which Glasswas supposed to have written to all the local high schools telling them that Western would not participate in any of their functions, because we (Western) no longer had a marching band. According to Glass,this is not so. "I wrote only one letter and that was to the Band Chairman for the Bellingham BlossomFestival informing him that we would no longer have a marching band at Western, and that we wouldnot actively participate in the parade." Later Glass offered direct services, "as the band would be morethan happy to play as a concert band." Extra-Curricular Activities It happened that the man who waschairman of the bands Cor the Blossom Festival, is also the man in charge of all the Bellingham Public School's music curriculum, Dr. Clifford Leedy. When asked by the Homecoming committee to marchin the parade, Leedy refused on the grounds that he felt it would be a detriment to the marching bandpolicy at Western, and Glass, if he accepted. Leedy had a different viewpoint on marching bands, "I don't know how it is in college, but we have different phases of curriculm to take care of in high Page 4school. The regular curriculm is the concert band, which gives a public recital once every year. Themarching band makes up the greater part of the extra-curricular activities." For precision drills, Leedysaid, the band spends one hour every day practicing for a period of two to three weeks before an event.This is a total of ten or fifteen hours of drill which manifests itself in ten minutes of slopping about on thesoggy turf at Battersby Bog for the amusement of a few fans who are more concerned with staying drythan with watching halftime entertainment. This is not to say that Leedy should not have a marchingband. Rather, it brings up the question, do the results prove worthwhile? It would be proper to here tosample the opinions of those who are involved. Commented Dr. Jarrett; "I've taken the position that theexcessive re-hersal time required is not worth the results." From Band Director Glass: "We have neverrefused to play for any high school or college function as a concert band. But aside from immediatecollege activity (such as Homecoming) we do not have a marching band." Dr. D'Andrea: "It is thefunction of the halftime show to satisfy the students. We try to do this with as little time, and damageto equipment, as possible." Said Dr. Leedy; "The marching band is certainly one of the most effectivepublic relations devices a school can have." The Legislature: "Everybody else has one, why can't wehave one too?" HOMECOMING The Western Roundup will go down in Western history as one of theschool's finest Homecomings. "This has been the best Homecoming in my four years here," commentedone Western senior. A 'Western' Legend A iScene From Skit Night The Queen's Ball last Saturdaynight was the climax to a flurry of activities. Steve Loughery provided soft music as well as some oi therompingest, stompingest music heard in this area in a long time to the transient crowd of students,royalty and faculty in the Gym. The College Dance Band played its usual fine brand of music in theViking- Union. Announced at each dance were the winners for the various competitive activities. DanielsHall won the award for the best men's house display for the. third consecutive year with an array ofcartoon characters reacting to a Bayview's Winning House Display WESTERN WASHINGTONCOLLEGIAN November 4, 1960 ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1960 November 4 - Page 5 ---------- Burma Shave slogan. Bay vie w had the best girl's house display with its "Up Down Saloon." A "wishy-washy" commercial in a satire about television earned Todd Hall the award for the best skit. Bob'ssinging and Jim's piano playing enabled the Brown brothers to win the best in-between act at SkitNight. Announced at Skit Night were the winners of the beard-growing contest. Cal Graham and DuaneOlson were the fellows with the finest fuzz. The sophomore class won two honors by having thebest float and the best window display. The float was a covered wagon drawn by four paper machehorses. Kluane Hall had the best decorated car. Barbara Logsdon, lovely Queen Sig-rid XXIII, wasgraceful in the traditional dance with President Jarrett. She and her Royal Court concluded thefabulous weekend with the Last Roundup, after which the Western Roundup became a Western legend.AVERILL HARRIMAN Democratic Mudslinger by Frosty Billingsley The auditorium was packed lastTuesday with anticipant listeners intent on hearing the words of the ex-governor of New York, AverillHarri-man. Whatever it was all those people were waiting to hear from this noted personage, I don't thinkthey heard it. Instead they heard sarcastic generalities which seemed to this reporter to bedesigned for a political rally composed of high school reactionists. Perhaps it couldn't even qualify asa political rally. At a function of that sort, the party sponsoring the rally usually presents its plans andstands, and gives an intelligent, reasonable look at the failings of the opposing factor. This wassomething different. What the honorable Mr. Harriman presented was a Democratic mud-sling at theRepublican nominees, the present administration and the Republican Party in general. Mr.Harriman stated, "Unhappily, we have lost the image abroad of a nation that is interested in people. Wehave been demanding military alliances and the use of bases. It's 'what's in it for us militarily?' We areagainst Communism, but we haven't made it plain what we are lor." I would think that this comment could have been amplified during the course of the speech, but it wasn't. I still November 4, 1960 "KennedyLooks Forward" don't know what "we are for" or what Mr. Harriman's faction is for. "Lodge . . . ATelevision Star" I do know however that "our impartial correspondents have reported from abroad thedecline everywhere in our prestige," and that "There is no doubt that this (devastation and dislocationcaused by war) would have happened, had it not been for our (Democratic) inspired leadership in theMarshall Plan," and that "Nixon claims to be an expert on foreign affairs just because he had a kitchen debate with Khruschev," and that "Mr. Lodge is a nice fellow, but he's a television star . . . " (whateverstain on a man's character this implies). For one, I should like to have Mr. Harriman back for anotherspeech to elaborate on the only truly positive statement he made all evening, "Mr. Kennedy looksforward." AMERICAN EDUCATION WEEK American Education Week will be observed the week of Nov. 7-12, with three lectures slated for Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, and several discussions andmovies also planned. Jim Boyles, President of Student Washington Education Association, announcedthat Dr. Jarrett will be the first speaker Monday at 4 p.m. in the Viking Union. His topic will be "Religion and Higher Education". Mr. Roy Mumme of the Education Department will speak later in the week. A series ofi movies during the week will deal with the aspects of education, with showings in the morningsand afternoons followed by discussions. : The five organizations which are sponsoring the week'sactivities are SWEA, the Association for Children's Education (ACE), Music Educator's WESTERNWASHINGTON COLLEGIAN National Committee (MENC), Kappa Delta Pi and United Campus Christian Foundation. The first four are pre-professional student organizations designed especially for teachereducation students. SWEA is the future teacher's professional group. It assumes responsibilityfor improving the quality of tomorrow's teachers by offering opportunities to learn about problems andchallenges in the field of teaching, as well as the ethical and legal responsibilities of teachers. Oneprogram planned for January will be a mock placement interview, which could be invaluable to manystudents who fear such interviews. The Western chapter, which was awarded a trophy as the topchapter in the state last year, will send eleven delegates to the regional conference tomorrow in Seattle.^ ACE, geared for working with children from ages two to 12, has planned „ne topic "The Child andthe Com munity" for this year's programs. Among the activities offered to college students are practice in preparing units in drama, reading, arts and crafts, music or games, or directing a unit of activities inany of a number of youth clubs here in town. MENC offers valuable programs for anyone interested inmusic education. Membership in the club provides opportunity for an active part in planning andoperating music festivals and contests as well as providing vital experience for aspiring music teachers.Kappa Delta Pi is a national honor society for education majors. Membership in the club requires athree-point gpa and is invitational. The club offers recognition for scholastic achievement as well assupplementing the teacher preparation program with further consideration of the teaching profession.STUDENT RECITAL The first of a series of student recitals under the auspices of the MusicDepartment is scheduled for 3 p.m., Wednesday, Nov. 9 in the Viking Lounge. Performers to bepresented are soprano, Carolyn Fichter accompanied by Sheila Simpson; pianist, Beverly Carr; anda violin duo composed or Sally Cooper and Linda Lawson accompanied by Sharon Minge.

The clash at Ellensburg will see the Viks try to spoil the Homecoming festivities of the 'Cats. This will also be a return match as the two clubs met earlier thisseason in Bellingham, with CWC coming out on the long end of a 19 to 3 count. every game. Last week, 3000 people saw evidence of this. With 24 seconds left in a tie ballgame, WWC quarterback SteveHansen faded back and fired a 34 yard strike to freshman halfback Roger Schmidt for the winning TDand a 13 to 7 victory over the Eastern Washington Savages. The game, until that point, had been adefensive battle between the two teams. Offensively, WWC dominated the first half while Eastern tookcharge in the third stanza. The fourth quarter was a standoff for 14 minutes Ladines garners 8 yards asRingenbach blocks Coach Abe Poffenroth's charges run from the multiple offense, using variations off the T and single wing from an unbalanced line. Their all-everything back, sophomore Harvey Rath, is justabout as big an offensive threat as is found anywhere in the Northwest. Running from the tailback sloton the single wing formations, Rath shines on the power sweeps with an occasional running pass.Rebounding from a first game loss, Central began to pick up steam. They knocked over three opponents,including Western, but were suprisingly upended last week by PLU. Obviously the Wildcats will befired up and eager to make their Homecoming a complete success with a victory over the Viks. ViksImproving Every Game However, Jim Lounsberry's Vikings are going to be out in full force to get sweetrevenge for their earlier loss to Central. The Viks, becoming more and more familiar with Lounsberry'sofiense, have been improving and 36 seconds until the big payoff. Almost all the Viks had their moments to shine on defense. Ron Ladines, Leland Wolf, Mike McVay, Roland Siggs and Jerry Beringer allturned in crunching tackles at one time or another. Steve Hansen accounted for both touchdowns as healso hit Doug Ringenbach in the end zone Cor six points. Ladines, Leroy Fuller and especially littleDale Johansen all ran very well from their backfield slots. "It was a sweet win." RUGBY Rugby Clubdrops 1st game by Ray Devier Last Saturday afternoon the Western Washington ruggers sufferedtheir first defeat at the hands of the UBC Physical Education team by the score of 8 to 3. The defeat, inthe words of Al Mathieson, player-coach, was due to the fact that "the team still lacks unity in its rugbyfundamentals." Experience was the major factor according to Mathieson. For the Viks, Gary Tangen scored the lone try. This week the Viks have been busy as they prepare to meet the Mara-loma RugbyClub, last year's second division champions. The representatives of this club later placed second inlast spring's California tourney. The game will be played in Bellingham at the Shuksan Junior HighSchool playfield at 1:30 p.m. SWIMMING Intramurals to begin All interested swimmers are invited toparticipate in the annual Intramural Swim Meet, which will be held at 4 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 9 in theCollege Pool. If you are unable to form a six man team but would like to participate, leave your name with the secretary in the Physical Education Building. All entries must be in by Nov. 7.

Western Men Begin Beards For New Look For the next month, many of Western's malepopulation will look like true men of the woods or hill billies, depending upon personal opinions. Some120 enthusiasts have put their John Henrys in the books as being official contestants in this year's beard raising contest. JUDGE ENTHUSED Charlotte Rolie, chairman of the judges for the contest, seems asenthused as any of the eager contestants. "This year's contest is really going to be something," she gleefully remarked. "Why, you should hear what some of the men are planning to do." Miss Roliewas very pleased with the turnouts, as there are more entrants for this year's Campus day beardraising contest than there were last year. The other judges seemed to be enjoying themselves lastTuesday and Wednesday when they were registering the men.

Most people take the attitude of "lock 'em up and throw the key away," when discussingmental patients. However, mental illness is a disease, not a crime, and must be treated like any otheraffliction, such as pnuemonia or tuberculosis. , CLASS VISITS HOSPITAL On a recent trip to Northern State Hospital at Sedro-Woolley, members of Dr. Manzer J. Griswold's course in SocialDisorganization, viewed these social misfits, people who still are, because of lack of proper facilities;victims of society. The state is now spending an average of $2.21 per patient per day on the mentallyderanged. This amount is supposed to cover not only food, but treatment. Treatment, which is needed bymaladjusted individuals includes a vast re-education program to the patterns of living in the "outside" world in addition to hospital care. When there is a lack of funds, recently admitted patients are given moreextensive care than the "long-termers," who may only receive a check-up twice a year. - The physicalplant, containing 2,500 patients, is overcrowded. The inmates are not housed according to the type ofmental disease they have but according to degree of violence. Thus a person who is a schizo-phrenic, or"living in another world," inhabits the same ward as a feeble-minded individual does. STUDENTSSHOCKED When students toured the building, they were shocked by conditions. For instance, therewere six beds in a ward built for four. There were 13 beds in another room with little space between them. All the women patients were attired in cheap print dresses. One ward smelled terribly. No wonder onestudent said "I wasn't very impressed." Sedro-Woolley has its good points, too. The patients seemovies, have church services, and are .entertained weekly by staff members. They have an orchestra, and television will be installed as soon as reception is improved. PUBLIC SHOULD ACT It is time, however,for us, the public, to recognize the adverse conditions at Northern State and the other two state hospitals. After recognizing the conditions, we must urge our legislators to appropriate more money forrehabilitation of mental patients. Saving Stamps Saves Lives A Korean child, homeless and starving, hasbecome a familiar picture in all our minds. Newsreels, magazines, and newspapers are full of scenes ofthe devastation and poverty that has befallen the people of that war-torn country. Upon seeing thesepictures we momentarily pity those concerned and want to do something for them. Too often ourinterest wanes rapidly when the stimulus is removed. We then wonder, what can we young people inWashington, do to help? The answer is easy. In the front hall of the main door there is a box. Abovethe box there is a sign urging us, the students and faculty members of Western, to help Korean childrenget nourishment. For every 40 cancelled stamps put in by us, one glass of milk may be provided for oneof these youths. * This is not too much to ask. Almost every student receives some mail during thequarter. It takes but little time and effort to tear a stamp from an envelope and deposit it in the box. Thegirls in one of the organized houses have shown their interest in those less fortunate than themselves byplacing a jar near the door for stamps from the letters they receive. When fiNed, the contents of the jarare brought to school and placed in the box. This is only one way of supporting the drive. Each of us asan individual may back it on our own. Let's do it!

Professor Polya is lecturinj throughout the State during a tour sponsored by the Nationa Science Foundation. * He will speak here Tuesdayafternoon at three o'clock. The subject of the talk is "Archimedes and the Discovery of the IntegralCalculus;." An evening meeting possibly will be held. Due to the. fact that Professor Polyaarrives here in the morning he will have time to meet faculty memtoers and interested students in theMath Office during the time before his lecture. Professor Polya is the author of many books, the mostrecent of which is a two volume set. Volume one is entitled "Induction and Analogy in Mathematics"and volume two "Patterns of Plausible Inference." He does a fine job of illustrating how plausiblereasoning is used in mathematics The basic methods of plausible reasoning are induction, analogy,tideflats Sing for Western "Ok fellas, let's try that again; only this time employ a modulation to thedominant key using a Five- S i x - F i v e chord." Immediately there's a tuning-up and a male quartetbreaks into song to try what in plain English is a key change. Anyone who has ever wandered the hallsof the. A-M building during the noon hours of the past two quarters might have heard something likethat. And what they would have heard were "The Tide-flats," singing it sweet. "The Tideflats" consist ofWally Vopnford, Bass, who in the opinion of Matt Gudmundson junior, "could sing lower, but he ran outof notes on the piano;" Bob Harnden, baritone, believed by some to sound just like a Crosby. John(always-on-pitch) Cchermerhorn the lead; and the top tenor, Gene Langill, complete the group. Thisfoursome, working under the eagle-eye of Mr. Richard Paige, choir director, has blossomed into aquartet Western can be proud of. Starting from scratch at the beginning of the Winter quarter, and as adirect result of Mr. Paige's formation of the Men's Glee club, "The Tideflats" have entertained manyorganizations to date and are booked for numerous others in the near future. Clowning is part of every"Tide-flat" concert and these boys enjoy it as much as their audiences. One of their funniest numbers is"Four Of The Three Muskateers" which they use as an opening number and, according to their tenorGene Langill, really loosens up the crowd. Other numbers in their repertoire include "I Talk to theTrees," a pep number;."Have a Little Talk With Jesus," a Negro spiritual. Both were arranged by Mr.Paige. Also in their collection are "Ain't That A Shame," "The Old Songs Medley," "She's More to bePitied Than Censured," and "Goodnight Ladies," all arranged in true Barbershop fashion. "SophomorePhilosophy," from Mr. Paige's former quartet days, rounds out their repertoire. Highlighting thisquarter's work was their audition for the Blossom Time festival talent program. The contenders have notbeen announced as of this date so the quartet (Continued on Page 8) generalization, and speculatioiPolya forms examples to illustrat these basic methods. The examples are of a great ya riety, depth, and are fascinatin to" the reader. They range fror elementary algebra and plane ge ometry to advancedanalysis. Polya wishes to aid students wh would like to get into mathematic to help them "attain thedeligl of discovery and the thrill of crc ation." He wants teachers and text book writers to show thestudem how theorems and proofs are at rived ,at rather than giving then just the hard; cold step by ste]formal science of mathematic! They should present the vitalit and the art of it. From a book review of theScien tific American magazine of Marcl '55 we find that "his book is ad dressed primarily to students de siring to develop their abilities ii mathematics and secondarily teachers. "A lay reader also will learnmud about the origin of math and aboii plausible reasoning. The material i both volumes is fresh andhighl original; the presentation is stimu lating, informal, and occasional! humorous; the examples fromsci ence, legal reasoning and daily lii make the arguments clear even t a non-specialist." If the type ofbook signifies th type of speech we will hear, should be an interesting and ilium inating talk.

It is nearly impossible to describethe mixed emotions and thoughts that were displayed at "Sam" night which was held to honor Mr. SamCarver, retiring director of intramurals. The event was held Monday evening. As everyone knows "Sam" is serving his last official quarter at WWC. This is his 43rd year on the faculty. During this long period Mr. Carver has worked in nearly every capacity on the coaching staff. Getting back to the Monday night affair, the alums came from every corner of the state to attend the all-male banquet in honor of theirformer coach. The ravages of time could be seen everywhere. Former fleet-footed guards and backs, now not so fleety displayed signs of prosperity where a.few years back, rock-hard muscles lay ready foraction. NO THRILL FOR SAM No doubt it was a thrill of a life time for "Sam" to see many of the "kids"he helped guild along the path to success. In his many years of service to the Blue and White, Mr.Carver worked with many coaches, and everyone that knows the veteran of the athletic department, hasthe highest respect and admiration for him. Here are a few words by head basketball coach, BillMacDonald. "Sam .Carver is one of the most sincere, considerate and hard-working men that I haveknown. It will be impossible to replace him. He is not really leaving Western. He will always be with us.The associations he has developed through forty-three years on the staff will continue as stronglyduring his retirement as they have in the past. Western's loss is retirement's gain." The director ofathletics, Charles Lappenbusch, has worked hand in hand with Mr. Carver for many years. This is whathe has to say about the popular retiring director of intramurals. "During all of the years of his coachingMr. Carver has done a splendid job and has had the respect and admiration of hundreds of fine youngmen. His understanding of problems of young people has given him the foundation for excellentjudgement dealing with decisions in his teaching and coaching areas. 119 W. Magnolia WANT TOSTART EATING AGAIN?

" Western Meets CPS in Match This Afternoon Western will meet the College of PugetSound Loggers in a tennis match here at 1:30 this afternoon. "Our boys are the underdogs," said tenniscoach Charles Lappenbusch," but our attitude is all in favor of a win if we can get the performance." He went on to say that CPS is bringing Bill Medin, who has been the winner of the conference meet for thelast two years. Medin also represented the conference in the national meet in Abeline, Texas for twoyears. Western's two returning letter-men are Terry Whalen and Ken Moffett. "As a team," Lappenbusch said, "They're improving." Last Tuesday's match between the Loggers and Western was rained out. Thematch has been rescheduled for May 4 in Tacoma. e gt; New Twist Added To Rec Program A newtwist has been added to the square dancing part of Mixed Rec on Thursday night.

Many Viking females looked a little distressed, when they sawthe wearing of the blue tags. Upon completion of registration the men were given blue tags whichmarked them as contestants. The beards will be judged in the following categories: The woolliest,curliest, scroungiest, reddest, blackest, leastest for the mostest, and the fanciest. The Collegian co-editor and the ASB president-elect were overheard attempting to persuade Miss Rolie into an eighthcategory: The smoochiest. The men also suggested that this group be inspected once a week so thatthe judges could note progress. CAMPUS DAY COMING The coming of the beard raising contestmarks the opening of Campus day events. The contest which is a part of the big day will be judged onMay 25. Judging will be done at Whatcom Falls park where the picnic is being held. Winners will beannounced at the Campus day dance.

After 42 Years at Western, Coach Sam Carver Retires A great job well done, is the leastthat a person can say ,^0 the tremendous work Sam Carver, chaimran of the Men's Physical Educationdepartment, has done to help bring Western's athletic's up to the fine standards for which it stands today.Mr. Carver is going to retire at the end of the summer quarter after 42 years of service at Western both as a* coach and as a teacher. In 1912, at the age of 22, Carver came to Western (at that time known asBellingham Normal) as a baseball coach. During those days there were no inter-collegiate athletics.Instead, Carver recalls Hhat the only competition was against the local YMCA, high schools, townteams and athletic clubs. ONLY COACH For nearly the first ten years Carver was the only coach at thecollege. Since that time he has coached the five major sports—-golf, baseball, basketball, track, andfootball. When asked which sport he liked coaching best, Carver replied, "I really enjoyed coachingtrack."

In recalling some of his most outstanding performers Carver went back to the track seasons of 1930- 31 and 1931-32 when he was coaching two of his most outstanding athletes,Norman Bright and Danny Qagnon. Bright ran the mUe in 4:13 and later went on to national fame.Gagnon was a sprinter who ran the 100 yard dash in 9.7 and the 220 in 21.4. Carver also named DickBruland, a 6'3"-190 pound lad as the best football player he ever coached. DIG MACK STARS One ofCarvers most memorable experiences occurred during a football game in which Western was trailingthe College of Puget Sound by one point with about one minute to play. The field was muddy, and thewater logged football was about three times overweight, but with the ball on the 30 yard line "Big Mac"kicked a field goat which won the game for Western. Carver's favorite hobbies are gardening and golf.When his retirement begins, he plans on getting in a lot of golf when the weather's right, although, inhis^ own words, "I suppose, some of those winter days will get pretty long."

Opening the program with one of Handel's works, the musicians played rondos,minuets, and polkas, among other selections, and had some of the audience chuckling on the lastnumber. The Cassenti Players, according to George Zukerman, bassoon player and spokesman forthe group, organized their ensemble because they felt there was a great need for that type of music incolleges and schools. Zukerman said they are hoping to interest students in becoming musicians andbetter audiences.

The productions, which' will be given May 20 and 21, are-v'the biggest we have stagedsince I've been at Western," commented Mr. Mark Flanders, Speech department. . According to Mr.Flanders most of the 65 costumes needed for "Dido and Aeneas" are being made by his costumedesign classes. Flannels, terry cloths, frnd other drapeable materials are being used for the simple, yetelegant Grecian robes. A new twist is being tried for the soldiers of Aeneas' train. "Do-it- yourself"aluminum will be used for their armor. Though the sets for "Trial by Jury" are designed to. .look like thetypical; formal, Victorian courtroom, the stylized, cartoon-type painting gives an air of light-heart-edness to the whole show; Because Victorian costumes require a great deal of time to make and areonly rarely used, the women's attire for the Gilbert and Sullivan light comedy will be rented from aSeattle costumer. Jurymen and male spectators will wear four-button suits and high-collared shirtsconverted from their own wardrobes.

Teaching Opportunities Bright In Far Pacific, Alum Reports While getting a golden tan, one .of neurotics, and just plain in-may earn a salary of $5,256 to j competents. No attempt had ever been made to work with the people in developing their own Ideas on education." TWO STEPS NEEDED Heexplains that two steps must be taken to start the ball rolling in the right direction. First, a nativeteaching staff must be established regardless of the "sacrifice of standards," and the Americanclassroom, teachers, as such, must be eliminated. The next step is to get real American teacherswho can work as in-service supervisors and teacher trainers. At the present time there is a nucleus ofthree people beginning the teacher training, and it is expected to grow within a year or more. Mr.King defends the inhabitants of the islands by saying that the natives of the islands are not primitive in the sense of the bush men of central Africa or the Australian aborigine. They really have a highlydeveloped culture and are very stable. They are content to remain as they are with minor adjustments tomaterial aspects of modern civilization. There is a continual conflict be-between "felt" and "real" needs."Felt" needs are rice and canned salmon and fancy shoes. "Real" needs are better sanitation andhousing and the ability to understand and adapt to the various facets of our civilization. It is Mr. King'sjob as an employee of the Department of the In-t e r i o r to continue what the Navy and United Nationsbegan. They must make sense out of what was done initially too hastily and with little thought for thepeople involved. TRY OUR DRIVE-IN CASH AND CARRY MILK PLAN Save 14c a Gallon PACKAGEICE CREAM At Our Drive-In Hill view Dairy 1824 Cornwall Avenue We Serve Lunches andRefreshments $6,325 per year; so reports A. R. (Dick) King, a 1948 graduate of Western, now employed in education work in the Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands, the United States trusteeship areaunder United Nations jurisdiction. Recently Mr. King wrote a letter to Dr. R. F. Hawk, director ofstudent teaching and the campus school, telling of the urgent need for teacher trainers on theseislands. ALLURING FACTS Here are some more alluring facts about this position. The teacher andhis dependents are given free first class air transportation from the place of recruitment. His householdgoods are shipped free of cost. The salaries are $5,256 for a one year probationary period and apermenant salary of $6,325 per year, including a 25 per cent cost of living allowance. However, the workcontinues for one whole year instead of the usual nine month period. Leave is allotted. Every two yearsan employee is allowed round trip transportation to the place of recruitment. The islands have a goodfood and medical supply. Mr. King says, "Life out here f s both rewarding and comfortable." After WorldWar II the United States Navy and a few Americans occupied the islands. They said, "Let there beschools because schools are the foundation of democracy." TEACHING STAFF PROBLEM Mr. Kingwrites, "Our schools were originally set up with all American teachers and staffed with whatever camealong on the theory that one school teacher is much the same as another." In Mr. King's district alonethere are some 2,500 students, 48 elementary schools, plus one intermediate school. The AmericanCongress would not staff the school system, so the American teachers were assigned to teach in theintermediate school and the better graduates of that school were sent out to operate elementaryschools. Mr. King continues, "Of teachers, we have had all sorts. Few have been satisfactory. Therehave been aicholics, empire-builders, all types The five most important words: "I am proud of you" Thefour mos*t important words: "What is your opinion?" The three most important words: "If you please"The two most important words: "Thank you" The smallest word: urn

Hilarious Comedy Premiere Coming "Dear Ruth", a hilarious two act comedy, opens in the blue room of Edens haU Thursday, November 21. As WWC's first dramatic performance of the year, "Dear Ruth" stars an all-student cast under the direction of Victor H. Hoppe. Rehearsals have been long and hard with a bit of humor all t h e time. Working under a terrific time handicap, Mr. Hoppe has selected an outstanding cast. Helping shape a smooth performance are: student director, Plans For Big Formal Made Vivian Franklin; technical director, Carl Lindell; and script artist, Phyllis Threlkeld. Members of the cast are: Dora, the maid, Vivian Franklin; Mrs. Edith Wilkins, the m o t h e r , Suda Jean Owen; M i r i a m Wilkins, adolescent d a u g h t e r , Clarena Fenton; Judge Henry Wilkins, the father, Edwin Cooper; Ruth Wilkins, charming oldest daughter, Irene Chetwood; Lt. William Seawright, Ruth's military suitor, Mike Smith; Albert Rummer, Duth's fiance, Glenn Burgess; Martha Seawright, the Lt.'s sister, Martha Moriaghan; Sgt. Chuck Vincent, the Lt.'s friend, John Peterson; Harold Klobbermeyer, a sailor, Carl Lindell. This comedy, written by Norman Kasner and first produced in New York, December 13, 1944, was a tremendous hit. It has just been released for amateur use. With an able director and a sparkling cast, WWC's performance of "Dear Ruth" promises to be equally successful. Complete runing time for the play will be November 21, 22 and 23. Under the general chairmanship of Bob Moblo, plans are being f o r m u l a t e d for the Norseman's Dance to be held November 23. Ticket sales will be limited to 200 because of insufficient space. They may be purchased in the main hall for a dollar a couple. An autumn theme will be carried out by the decoration committee: Clark Brown, Pat Mc- Evoy and Jim Roberts. Arrangements are being made for a floor show by Carl Lindell, Richard Green and Russell Hilton. O t h e r committee members are: refreshments, Bob Bain, Lionel Livermore, and Art Run-nestrand; publicity, W a r r en Beecroft, Jack Graham, and Don Foster. Ticket sales will be handled by Mickey Smith, Leroy Roand, and Don Anderson, while Don Brown, Jim Fickle, and Vic Hughes will take care of the check room. Ernie Dawe, Glenn Barry, John Griffith, and Gor-den Adel are on the clean-up committee, and Fred DeBruler is making arrangements for the music. Tory's Wolw by halldor karason It seems to be a truth that in, reporting the activities of any organization more publicity is given to events which show lack of cooperation than to events which give evidence of cooperation. That is true of the United Nations Organization. The particular agency of the UN which is being criticized is the Security Council, and, specifically, the veto power of the permanent members: Ch m a » F r5n c e ? Russia, Great Britain, and the United States. The chairman of the United States delegation to the San Francisco Conference, Edward R. Stettinius, Jr., then Secretary of State, in his report to the President, said: ". . . The Security Council is not the enforcement agency of a world state, since world opinion will not accept the surrenda-of sovereignty which the establishment of a world state would demand. The Security Council, therefore, depends upon the Sovereign member states for the weapons both of persuasion and of force through which it will attempt to keep the peace. . . . The voting procedure of the Security Council is expressive of the actualities of the possession and exercise of power in the modem world. The five principal military powers of our time are made permanent members of the council. ..Furthermore, in order that their possession of power and their use of power may be made to serve the purpose of peace, it is provided that they shall exercise their power only in agreement with each other and not in disagreement." CRITICISM JUSTIFIED Mr. Stettinius, it is evident, approved of the veto power. He considered it desirable that the five major powers should be in complete accord on all decisions which affect the peace of the world. However, the question has arisen as to what affects the peace of the world and what does not. That appears to be the basis for the present dispute over the veto power. Russia has used the veto power nine times. France has used it once. The other three powers have not used their right to veto. This does not pre-suppose that they will never use their veto power. It suggests only that they have not yet found it advantageous to do so. The use of the veto power by Russia has been sharply criticised, and no doubt much of that criticism is justified One of the latest vetoes by Russia was the veto of the applications for membership in the UN submitted by Ireland, Portugal, Trans Jordan, Albania, and Outer Mongolia. " / . Membership in the United Nations is open to all peace-loving stales which accept the obligations contained in the present Charier and., in the judgment of the organization, are able and willing to carry out those obligations. " 2 . The admission of any such stale to membership in the United Nations will be affected by a decision of the General Assembly upon the recommendation of the Security Council. It would seem that those two provisions conflict as long as the power of veto on such matters remains with one of the five permanent members of the Security Council. That seems to be, in effect, what has happened in the case of Russia's veto of the membership application. SEVEN OF ELEVEN It must be made clear that all decisions, of the Security Council are not subject to the veto power. Only those decisions which are not "procedural" can be vetoed. Procedural decisions are made by an affirmative vote of at least seven of the eleven members. Unfortunately, however, the question of what is procedural has not been adequately defined. In the Charter it is stated: "The Security Council shall adopt its own rules of procedure . . ." That seems to leave it up to the Security Council to define "procedural matters". The United States is not attempting to get the Security Council members to arrive'at such a definition. PERMANENT PEACE « Permanent world peace cannot be achieved without compromise and understanding. The UN, since it is the result of democratic action, is not as yet perfect in all its details. There will, inevitably, be many differences of opinion and much need for compromise before the UN fulfills the high purpose for which it was founded. We in America, with our history of democratic compromise and political opposition, should be among the first to understand that a.difference of opinion in the UN is not necessarily an indication that the UN cannot succeed and achieve its purpose. It is the democratic way to discuss controversies openly and to seek a solution which will be in the best interest of alL There is no other logical way to international understanding and cooperation. There is no other way to world peace.

New Radio Program Promotes Public Interest In College Taking to the air-waves, the radio speech class, directed by Miss Alma Madden is presenting the program "College News in Review" each Thursday at 4:45 p. m. over KVOS local radio station. Designed to promote public interest in WWC, these programs consist mainly of school news, personality sketches and interviews. However, programs vary to meet special needs and events. An example is the play "Deadline for Living" w h i c h is ACappella Choir Debut Tuesday Music will highlight the assembly scheduled for November 12 to honor Armistice Day and American Education week. This will mark the first apearance of the a cappella choir which open the program with a group of selections. Numbers to be featured will be: Let There Be Music (an original musical setting by the director, Mr. Bernard Regier); An Eriskay Love Lilt (Robertson); and Holiday Song (Shumann). The choir's performance will be followed by two talks on education: "World Education in the Atomic Age" will be discussed by Joanne Plumb, and Jess Bailey will speak on "Education for Peace." Reading of the Honor Roll by Don Packard in recognition of WWC's war dead will conclude the program. Faculty members responsible for the assembly are: Dr. W. W. Haggard, presiding; Mr. Bernard Regier, music; Mr. Victor Hoppe and Miss Alma Madden, speeches. scheduled for broadcast November 14, in honor of Education Week. In the broadcasts an attempt has been made to follow the trend of the WWC Collegian. Features of the paper that interest students most are incorporated in the radio shows. The task of editing and presenting programs falls to the eight students who constitute the radio speech class. Because of the small class each student is insured a part in every broadcast. Two students act as arrangers and announcers each week while the remainder provide the body of the show. STUDENTS TALENTED Equipment for the broadcast, the studio and the technical production are provided by station KVOS. "The class is composed of talented people," declared Miss Madden. "Among the students are Hugh Vit-ter, who has appeared as vocalist with dance bands, and Carl Lindell, who arranged Special Service Shows while serving in the army. "We hope to stimulate an interest in our program among the students, as well as the general public," Miss Madden continued, "and I hope they will tune in "College News in Review' whenever possible." •Cut Courtesy Bellingham Herald Kipling once remarked "east is east and west is west but ne'er the twain shall meet" but nobody has ever mentioned the possibilities of north and south getting together.

Pauline L. seems to have her social calendar fairly well organized at the moment so guess it's safe to say Frank H. seems to be occupying most of her time of late. „^ Remember we vote for the Homecoming Court this Friday and you're making a fatal mistake if you don't vote for June Danielson . . . 'cause she's really a wonderful combination of beauty and personality. V V EDENS HALL Most lively topic for conversation this week was the issue brought about by the Hospice Inn serenaders. The girls seem to think things have come to a sad state of affairs when the first sign of initiative and the first gesture of congeniality is nipped in the bud. It was a beautiful serenade, more conducive to pleasant dreams than disturbance of the peace, and was greatly appreciated by an enthusiastic audience. We have two new inmates this week: Pat Larson from Sedro- WooIIey, and Joanne Jude from Bellingham. Hap Wittier told me she went wading m Lake Whatcom last week-end. We did have nice weather, but I didn't think it was that good. Must have been some added attraction. V V YMCA Things are beginning to hum at the "Y" this month, with many activities being well underway. The Homecoming display, which is being handled by capable Carl Lindell, promises to be a good one, as Carl has put much time and effort into its formulation. A Homecoming skit is also being planned by entertainment chairman, Doug Roberson, and will star such celebrities as president Arnold Turner, San Fran-ciscos' gift to WWC. The A.S.M. basketball team, led by captain Bill Tulin, although not too impressive in the percentage column, has been playing good ball and "showing lots of fight. Much credit is due to Ed Black, Cliff Sharp, Milton Orphan, and Captain Tulin for their sterling play. Miles Standishes' birthday party, held in his room the other night and attended by many, was a howling success. For further information see Clark Brown. And by the way if any of you girls know who the handsome cashier at Bdens Hall is at lunch time, it is none other than A.S.M.'s Alf Courtney, from Sequim, Washington.

Bob and Dawn spent last week-end cruising around Everett in the father-in-laws' brand new car . . .

V V HOSPICE INN Well, those mid-terms are over at last—now to wait for the deficiency reports. Of course, for some of us the work is never done—at least that's what Jack Francis says when he is questioned about his absence from the social circles of Hospice Inn the past few days. He has a 15,000 word theme to write! • The regular housemeeting was held Tuesday night. After the usual business meeting, an attempt was made to revive the old tradition of serenading the girls of Edens Hall, but someone evidently doesn't appreciate our singing. Oh. well, "cops is such nice people!" Frank Iroala shouldn't have asked for "Five Minutes More" because it made him late for the housemeeting. He looks so cute in a grass skirt—such a swing and sway! New members of the House of Hospice during the past two weeks are Dennis McGillivary, from Anacortes; Suart Petrie and Dick Wright from Seattle. FOREST INN V V Boy, here I am home at 250 North Forest (alias Forest Inn), after a hectic day of classes. If I had Shirley Van Moorhem's ability to fall instead of walk downstairs, I mightn't be so tired or maybe if I had Melba Leh-mann's ability to toot a horn I could toot myself into a ride home nights. I'd even be satisfied if I could cook like our wonderful housemother, Mrs. Sundquist, but I can't even boil water. Guess our house president, Ruby McCormick, is as tired as I am. I'd like to explore into her night life sometime. So, pardon me while I go catch a wink, (too bad it couldn't be a man.) V V DANIELS HALL Some people are inclined to believe that Seattle will someday join with Everett to form one city, but from the looks of Daniels Hall it will come clear to Bellingham. We have no less than ten Ballard boys living there besides a few stragglers from other parts of that fair city. Most of these boys will be used in our Homecoming skit as you can tell they are musically inclined by the cords in their neck. (It's a pun son.) We are still looking fox-one of these jokers that can sing HI-C. So far they all sing low-sy. Jerry Connell is back home after taking a turn for the nurse while in the hospital.

It makes Amber bitter and she is slowly but surely starving us two clowns to death. Speaking of Lindbloom, Lappy saw him chasing some girl down 14th street the other night and told him to save his' energy for the gridiron wars. V V SENIOR HALL November 3 is a date that will no doubt go down in the history of Senior Hall. It was our first open house. From 3 to 5 o'clock there was a constant stream of people coming and going. Tea, cake and cookies were served while the Misses Lois Kirig and Alice Attwood led tours showing the house to those who wished to see it. Perhaps the most exciting event of the week was the initiation of the freshmen last Wednesday. At 6 o'clock in the morning the cruel, brutal upperclassmen pounded into our room with the re-mark,." Get up, youse bums!" Then they told us that we had to be downstairs in 15 minutes fully dressed, and carried on from there. Couple United In Wedlock The marriage of Miss Hester Kent, daughter of Mrs.| T. B. Kent, to Mr. Arthur G. Dodds, son of Mrs. A. G. Dodds, of Phoenix, Arizona, took place October 11 at the home of the bride's mother in Seattle. Atendants of the couple were Lt. and Mrs. James F. Wright, of this city. The bride wore "a black dressmaker suit with black accessories and carried a single white orchid on a prayer book which had been given her by the groom. Mrs. Wright wore a geranium red suit with black accessories. For the wedding trip through Washington, south to the Grand Canyon, the bride donned a gold top coat. " • The couple will live in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, while the groom continues his m e d i c a l c o u r s e at Marquette university. He is a graduate of Baylor university, and participated in-all but two of the South Pacific campaigns. The bride, who formerly lived here, attended the local high school and Western Washington College. Several relatives and friends from Bellingham were guests at the wedding. Sophs Hold Party; Socles Plenty Loud Swell; best ever held; couldn't have been better; was the opinion of members of the sophomore class who attended the scavenger hunt and party held Saturday . evening in the lounge. ' The scavenger hunt was the feature of the evening with the winning team receiving a box of chocolates. Articles collected by the winning team ranged from a banana, cookie cutter and used tomato can, to a corn stalk. The rules set a time limit of one hour and prohibited the use of autos. Refreshments, consisting of cocoa, coffee and doughnuts, were served in the lounge following the hunt. The remainder of the evening was spent dancing, with special tags, novelty, individual, and the sock dance headlining the evening's entertainment. The prize for the couple with the loudest socks was awarded to Pat Temperley and Glen Bergess, "the socks actually spoke for themselves." stated the prize awarder, Ted Gary. Two college pennants were the prizes ---------- WWCollegian - 1946 November 8 - Page 3 ---------- ^P^^^^^^^SS|lP^l^^^^SiSill, Friday, November 8; 1 9^ \ryestern W^hingtpn Gd y*i • ••••^^s. : .'h-. .^.%iS;i. St. Martin's Next Grid Classic ROUGH PLAY . . . Badly crippled; a game, but reserve shy Viking eleven crossed the Cascades again, only to come back bumped up some more. Rather harshly used were the Norsemen who went over to play football under college rules . . .Wound up playing under profession rules . . . plus some Marquis of Queens-bury additions. • • HIGHLIGHTS . . . Wally Miller, in the thick of things, had a clipping penalty against him. Later on game officials missed the retaliation effort of a North Idaho player against Wally . . . Sent to the showers for unnecessary roughness was Del Peterson. Del must have sensed the real spirit of the game . . . Missing the try for point, and then being jumped squarely upon by opposing linesmen was the rare treat in store for Byron Griibb . . . Inci-dently Lappy galloped. out upon the greensward twice in more than mild protest. • Which still makes just two times he's done that sort of thing during his coaching career . . . A good time was had by all, and. brotherly love was conspicuous by its absence in this-tussle, under Idaho skies . . . The Viks, short of man power, were _ hardly prepared for the bruising, more than rough tussle they Were forced to play. . * * ' ' • STANDOUTS . . . Outstanding indeed, has been the play of our blue and white tackles. Not to be overlooked are the steady, sterling performances of Kerr, Dodge, Hammer, Grubb, and Del Peterson at the guard positions.. Hammer, by the way, was another Viking not present at the Lewiston game. Lappy, in a -measure, was pleased over certain elements of the Viking's offense. Moving with machine like precision, they reached the ten yard line several times, but lacked the final punch to put it over. Pinal word from Coach Lappenbusch was that outstanding for North Idaho, were two tall ends who could really snare those passes. * * QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS . . . Why did the North Idaho boys miss their signals so often? The North Idaho squad seemingly is composed of two teams, one purely defensive, and the other wholly offensive. The defensive eleven never could quite get its signals straight. Has anyone seen Nick Zender around? So far this year the hill top school seems to be without a Zender. * * INTRAMURAL MURALS . . . Basketball as played in the intramural league was given a severe shakeup, when three top teams lost three star players to Coach McDonald of the varsity. Transferring to the Viking regulars are Kink of the Southenders; Clemens of Daniels, and Bakers of the Unknowns. The old intramural spirit is back again. Listen to what these rival members of the intramural bowling teams have to say of their teams pennant chances. Jay Lapp, of Lapp's Clip Joint: "Competition is rough, nevertheless I believe we have a good chance to finish on top." George Jurgens, of Bushnell's: "Give us five more good men, and we're in. It's a good race as far as the rest of the league is concerned." Jack Francis, of Hospice A, current leaders: "We're a cinch to win. It's a one team race." Don Brown, of Hospice B: "The league is rather well balanced. We won't finish last." Warren Beecroft, of the Collegians: "The rest of the teams haven't a chance. Just wait until the Collegians get to rolling." End of quotes. These rather caustic remarks ought to stir up a hornet's nest among our intramural bowling teams. * * THIS 'N THAT . . . Coach Lappenbusch took time out Monday eve, for a talk at Nooksack Valley high school. Viking Frank Gayda has a brother, Eddie by name, who is making history with the Washington State Cougars. He has cinched a starting post with the basketball team. Last week saw the all important Pacific Lutheran and Central Washington tussle end in a 27 to 20 win for Ellensburg, keeping it the only undefeated, untied Winco team. Booming along in second place came the Eastern Washington Savage. Whitworth was annihiliated 45 to 0, by them. One tie is the only blotch on the Eastern record. Tomorrow should see a hectic game with the Central-Eastern clash at Ellensburg. This one should decide the Winco league championship. Our Vikings are travelling by bus to Olympia, where a tangle with St. _, Martin's is on the ticket. This is a Viking chance to tear themselves away from a cellar berth. Thirty-seven men will go. Social committee is taking care of plans for an extra bus or so, for rooters who may want to accompany the team. That's all for this week. FOOTBALL PREDICTIONS The predictions of last week were as usual Way off the beam but I will venture to say that it was not the second guessers fault on the whole. The Vikings lost to a team by three touchdowns, but I don't believe the opposition was three touchdownz better than our boys. We pushed Idaho all over the field until our boys tired in that Idaho air and bogged down. They had a defensive team and another that they used for the offense, therefore having a fresh team on the field all the time, while Lappy just didn't have enough experienced reserves. Perhaps if we played them over here where our first string could play a full 60 minutes of ball, the score would have been diffeernt, but who knows. Such is football and the reason why coaches gel gray. Last week three people picked Idaho to win: Widge Black and Bill Miller coming the closest on the score, picking Idaho by two touchdowns and 19-0, respectively. Here We go again, so keep your fingers crossed and. hope the Blue and While's luck will take a change for the best tonight and Monday. LARRY HOLCOMB .".\ Popular Lynden athlete, before his college days: "What is this—the battle for the cellar? I'd say it is about time the Viks won a game or two. Maybe these two." DR. KEITH A. MURRAY . . . popular historian around this den of higher knowledge: "They say we are going to win one this year, perhaps one of these it is." GERRY WOODWARD . . . who hails from the home of St. Martins, and buys the poorer class cokes when they are thirsty: "Well, we will certainly beat St. Martins. We'll beat Whitworth, too, if we get just a little oomph." BOB SHUETTE . . . former Red Raider now enrolled here: "I believe St. Martins will win this one 13-6 and we should beat Whitworth." DEAN AMDAL . . . former Ballard football player: "The way the Vikings have been playing it is anyones game and the Whitworth game depends on what we have left after the St. Martins engagement." I n closing let's take a shot at the score in the countries most important game tomorrow: Notre Dame 20, Army 14. THE PASTIME BELLINGHAM'S MOST SPLENDIDLY APPOINTED CAFE JOE PAGLIA . .

Season's Big Game Army vs. Notre Dame Both Notre Dame and Army's unblemished records will be at stake tomorrow afternoon' when these two football powers square off in the 33rd game of their classic series at New York's Yankee Stadium. Army, triumphant in 21 consecutive games, has been installed as slight favorites over the Irish, but it was expected to be an even up contest by kickoff time at Yankee Stadium. The Irish have been pointing to this one since the opening of the season and will go all out to hand the Cadets their first loss in three years. Johnny Lujack, whose passing contributed to Notre Dame's 26-0 victory in 1943, will once again be at the helm of the Irish after a lapse of three years. The winner of this football classic may go a long way towards deciding the mythical national f o o t b a ll champs. —Cut Courtesy Bellingham Herald Ronald Dodge hails from Forks, Washington, and is a one year let-terman in football.

Many students are not aware that the voluntary system: of attendance is a trial which is not working too satisfactorily. Striving toward a more democratic system, Dr. W. W. Haggard intro-, duced the voluntary plan for the first time this quarter. The faculty was sure that if attendance were left to the student's initiative, the auditorium would be just as crowded. But some of the students have failed the faith placed in them. In trying to solve reasons for poor attendance, many excuses have been used, but none strong enough to compensate the loss derived from missing one of these fine programs. The auditorium is close and very handy; the hour is not near enough lunch time so that the hunger, pangs are too great, and the library is closed so there is no study space available. The major reason presented which would be reasonable is that the assembly programs are not given enough publicity before hand. Therefore the Collegian will attempt to outline each assembly and give as much advanced information as possible to explain the program. VOLUNTARY OR COMPULSORY Summing up the situation, it is of interest to every student, to the school and to the participants in the assemblies that attendance is tops. Two excellent reasons for this are: first, the educational advantages offered in each assembly, and second, the blunt fact that a continually poor -attendance will replace the voluntary method with the former method of compulsory attendance.

Call 2961. tends to create a more profitable, as well as enjoyable, school experience. In order to remedy a situation of this nature peitiaps it is wise to first determine the cause. WWC has experienced a re-birth with the current year. After the lean war years, enrollment has swelled to pre-war figures, and the school is passing through an awkward period of ado-lesehce, during which confusion reigns. VETERANS AS STUDENTS Veterans accustomed to hectic war years undoubtedly find it difficult to complete the transformation from military life to a scholastic life. Since a large portion of the WWC student body consists of veterans this has a great influence on school attitudes. Numerous criticism have, been made condeming the present school spirit, but few methods of alleviating existing conditions have been for.-, warded. The most often voiced remedy is the casual statement, "give us time and it'll come around." The simple truth is that fundamentally enthusiasm and loyalty stem from the individual, and not the football team, yell leaders or student body officers. School spirit, like a chain, is as strong as its weakest link. Unless each student does everything he incapable of to promote interest, the fine spirit that signifies a united student body '.falls apart. It is all too easy to shrug off responsibility and then accuse others when events and programs fall flat. We're never too old to learn, so any new ideas will be as welcome as a valid sugar coupon. It's up to you! As you make it you will have it. GREAT MEN AND HIEROGLYPHICS Don't feel bad if friends tell of handwriting being illegible. Some of Shakespeare's work never has been definitely deciphered. Several of Hawthorne's ..manuscripts remain unpublished today because no one has been able to read them. And Napoleon's letters were almost in a class by themselves, some of them being mistaken for maps of battlefields. Who Hastily Cried 'Wolf? Dear Editors: A group of the residents of Edens Hall wish to register a strong protest against the calling of the police during the serenade of Edens Hall on the night of Tuesday, November 5. The charge was made that the boys, residents of Hospice Inn, were singing unfit songs and were creating a disturbance. This group was among those list-" ening and could detect no spirit of disorderliness nor any songs that might be classified as "unfit". There is a great deal said and written about school spirit and its . lack around Western Washington College. To us. this serenade indicated a spirit of friendliness and comradeship that has been sadly lacking around this school during PPPPP

There are, unfortunately, 168 hours in a week and at present Irequire 169 to accomplish the tasks set before me. I just plain do not have the time to research andwrite. So, dear, gentle, and ex- reader, my anger and verbosity are chained to the meets and bounds ofa classroom, my wit and savage charm are spent in correcting papers. Do not weep with such passion,nor dress yourself in sack cloth, I will try to be back either this summer or next fall (if and only if I don't flunk out). And now, debouching on my hegira, I salute you. A rivederci, Western. Dennis O. Stuhaug ENROLLMENT Drop-out not unusual Enrollment for spring quarter at Western is listed at 2,692students in attendance. This figure indicates that 91% of fall quarter's enrollment has remained the entire school year. According to Donald Ferris, Registrar, this 9% drop-out is not unusual. Pre-registrationfor summer sessions, for those now enrolled at Western, will be May 8-12. Final registration willbe completed by appointment from June 5-8. FRANK D'ANDREA To direct in Alaska Dr. FrankD'Andrea, Head of the Music Department, will direct the University of Alaska's presentation of Haydn's"Creation," April 23. This presentation is being prepared by Glenn Bergh, graduate of Western and, atpresent, head of the Department of Music at the University of Alaska. Bergh will sing the role of Uriel,while his wife, Roxie, will sing the part of Gabriel. Bernard Regier, from Western's Music Department, will be featured as bass soloist in the roles of Raphael and Adam in this oratorio. Harpsichordist here Afestival of music is being presented by Western's Music Department during the last week of April.Harold Chaney, a harpsichordist, will ibe featured in the College Auditorium Wednesday, April 26, at8:15 p.m. Mr. Chaney is from the School of Music at the University of Oregon. With the assistance ofthe College Chamber Orchestra, the recital will consist of works by Purcell, Vivaldi, Bach, Handel,Scarlatti, and Albeniz. On Friday, April 28, at 8:15 p.m. the College-Civic Orchestra conducted by Dr.Frank D'Andrea will present its spring concert. Student soloists will be Bobby Brown, bass; BarryChamberlain, pianist; and David Sevenbergen, flutist. Pianist Dale Reubart, of Western's MusicDepartment, will offer a recital of music by Bach, Beethoven, Brahms, Schoenberg, and Ravel onSunday, April 30, at 8:15 p.m. Mr. Chaney, who has gained recognition through his many recitals and broadcasts over the country, exhibits ti characteristic flair for early keyboard music. According to onecritic, "his playing is marked by a deep sincerity and musical understanding." Another reviewer hascommented, 'The unusual rewards in Chaney's playing, however, came from the fact that he not only has this exact brilliance, but, somehow, added to the 18th Century reserve of physical sound apassionate declaration of feeling about the music." From the vast treasures of early music, Chaney haschosen a program both representative in scope and highly appealing to a wide range of listeners. Theprogram provides a rare opportunity to hear masterpieces of the 16th, 17th, and 18th centuries on theoriginal instrument for whose delicate sonorities these works were written. To be heard are pieces ofHandel and Bach, works from the Spanish repertoire including Sonatas by Scarlatti, and selections nyCouperi and Purcell. Chaney will play his own harpsichord which, incidentally, is one of the largest inthe country iby virtue of its extraordinary tonal resources.

It's not heavy drama or a play with a great message . . . its just fun!" says director Dianne Nygaard. Dianne, a perfectionist in her own right, has participated inseveral college productions, but this is her first attempt at directing. She enjoys children's plays"because you can be hammy and play it to the hilt. You can play it big and broad right out to theaudience." Dianne feels that the play is progressing very well and that the cast has come a long waysince the first rehearsals were held at the beginning of the quarter. Except for a few members of thecast, none of the students have had previous experience at the college level in dramatics. However,they have grown into the spirit of the play and have learned many of the basic techniques of the theatre.Carolyn Waugh, assistant director, believes that all of the cast members are real troupers. They havegiven up evenings and week ends for three weeks to attend practices. Ilene King and Lorri Booth Playhas a moral "Rumpelstiltskin" is about a little elf man who believes he can control the minds of men if he has a king's son to put in his pot of magic brew. He hears about a miller's daughter who has beenpromised the marriage of the king's son if she can spin a room full of straw into gold thread.Rumpelstiltskin tells her that he will spin the straw if ishe promises to give him her first child after shebecomes queen. She agrees but later convince him not to take her child if she can guess his name.Because the little man feels sure that she can never do this, he is completely destroyed when shedoes finally say his name. "It does have a moral as all good fairy tales do," says Dianne, "and that isthat you can't make an end to man by sending him trouble— he can only learn from it." The sets will be highly stylized with such things as pink, purple and blue rocks in the garden to create an unrealistic and fanciful atmosphere. All of the costumes are being designed especially for the play by Gary Sirguy,an art major. Appearing in the production will be Ilene King, as Rumpelstiltskin; Lorri Boothe, MotherHulda; Sandra Irvin, miller's daughter; Sue Weidman, miller's wife; Frank Gonzales, miller; GaryBeeman, Gothal; Douglas McCoy, Ingert; Richard Melarvie, King; Joel Woodman, King's son; andJacqueline Hanes, Karen. The gt;play will be presented at 3:30 this afternoon and at 2 p.m.tomorrow, in the College Auditorium. Admission is 25c for children and 50c for adults. MUN Cubawalks out by Carolyn Newton Climaxing the 11th session of the MUN in Eugene, at the U. of Oregon,was the Saturday session of the General Assembly. As resolutions which were passed by the variouscommittees during committee meetings on Thursday and Friday were reconsidered in the GeneralAssembly, various delegates took advantage oi.' their country's policies to bang on tables, clap wildly,or conspicuously walk out. The brief appearance of Castro to the afternoon session of the GeneralAssembly was uenxpected, but when the Cuban delegation received a communique from theirgovernment telling them of the "U. S." bombings over Havana, it was no surprise that the Cubandelegation directed condemning remarks toward the U. S. and then walked out claiming that the UNwas being made a mockery of. Also walking out during the Assembly were Portugal and Brazil, whenPortugal's actions in Mozambique and Angola were censured and the Union of South Africa, when herpolicy of Apartheid was censured. In the first plenary session of the MUN, the assembly of almost 1000delegates representing 81 schools and 87 countries was addressed by the Pres. of the 15th session ofthe UN, President F. Boland, Senator Wayne Morse, Oregon Governor Mark Hatfield, Chancellor of theState Board of Higher Education John Richards, Acting University President W. Jones, and ASUOPresident Steve Schell. A reflection of world situation Boland, though he stressed the value of the UN intoday's world in his address, stated that "the sad fact is that the situation in the UN Assembly is merelya reflection of the situation in the world. Because the Assembly of the UN mirrors the world as it is." Itwas his opinion that "we need wider vision, a broader sense of community, a new intellectual horizon,the dawn of a truly international patriotism, in keeping with the common destiny and the commonjeopardy of mankind in this nuclear age." The validity of Boland's statement became apparent to thedelegates by The end of the conference. After attending many meetings where much caucusing wasneeded to pass any resolutions, the numerous snags in the wheel of a democracy became quiteapparent. ART SYMPOSIUM No "Northwest School" A symposium on contemporary Northwest painting was presented on April 13 as a part of the A L Series. Held in the College Auditorium, thesymposium pointed out the changes in art, with emphasis on the past five years. Three guest speakersoutlined the general trend of art in the North- Avest. They were: Ian McNairn, UBC Art Museum; Dr.Francis Newton, Portland Art Museum; and Mr. Gervais Reed of the Henry Gallery. A c o m b i n a t io n of well-planned speeches and appropriate slides of paintings increased the average person'sunderstanding of Northwest art. In the past the Pacific Northwest has been primarily recognized for itslandscapes and realistic sketches. But in the last few years an international or universal type of art has become dominant everywhere, in-, eluding the Northwest. One can no longer term a painting as being of the "Northwest school," as it is now non-existent. April 21, 1961 WESTERN WASHINGTONCOLLEGIAN Page 3 ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1961 April 21 - Page 4 ---------- Library Opened by program Sunday Thirty-two faculty members were honored last Sunday at theopening program of Western's observance oi National Library Week. Those honored were "people inprint," faculty authors 'whose works were published in 1960-61. The session was held in the VikingUnion Main Lounge from 2-5 p.m., where the National Library Week theme "For a Richer, Fuller Life —Wake Up And Read" was borne out by the reading of personal selections by guest speakers and a shortaddress on the theme by Dr. James Jarrett, College President. The selections presentedrepresented quite diverse interests, ranging from a child's story, Curious George, by H. A. Rey, readby Ramona Hopping, a WWC senior, to a case history from Washington State law, presented byJudge Hobart Dawson. Excerpts from two autobiographies were also included. Dr. Sene Carlile readfrom I Walked With Heroes, Carlos Romulo's autobiography; and Mrs. A. R. Walker, Chairman of theBellingham Public Library Board from 1947-1961, read selections from The Intimate Portrait of Toscanini. Selections from The Rebel by Camus were read by Dr. Katherine Carroll, and Teddy, by J. D.Sallinger, was presented by Joel Woodman, WWC sophomore. Mr. William H. O. Scott moderated theprogram, which was co-sponsored by the Bellingham Public Library, Whatcom County Rural Library, and the Campus National Library Week Committee. Dr. Jarrett in his address pointed out that Americansas a whole are not a very "bookish" people, who find many reasons tor their intellectual abstinence.Expressing a personal sense of deprivation at not having read all the good literature available, heposed the problem as, "How can readers unite for an onslaught on non-readers — whom we (readers)feel are missing so much?" Faculty members honored at the program and following tea were: MissLeona M. Sundquist; Dr. M. J. Mitchell; Dr. M. A. Allan; Dr. Katherine Carroll; Dr. D. McDonald; Mrs.Mary Worthylake; Dr. E. R. Clapp; Mr. Syndey Mendel; Dr. R. L. Mona-han; Dr. R. A. Christman; Dr.Keith A. Murray; Dr. Carl M. Shuler; Dr. C. M. Rice; Mrs. Mariam Mathes; Dr. P. R. Penland; Dr. S.

Brewster BOOKS They are human by Karen Bainter "WakeUp and Read — for a Richer, Fuller Life." Today's world is so cluttered with slogans that the averageperson doesn't think of the meaning of the often-appearing words. This is National Library Week. (In factit is almost over with.) The printed page is the historian of ideas. The library, a building block of the future — a place to study, a place to learn, a supplement to already partially acquired knowledge, a basepoint for intellectual pursuit. -Even if the only knowledge you obtain from the library is what youacquire by reading assigned texts while you are engrossed in the occupation of seeing who is there, you still obtain some benefits. There is always time Students, with their arms bowed down with heavyrequired reading, feebly moan that they have no time tor "extra-curricular" reading. But there is alwaystime, if you want to make time. Everyone should wander through the stacks every once in a while andWESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAN pick out interesting-looking books. Or else, read a book whichteachers have brought up in class that deals with a subject you feel ignorant about or that soundsinteresting to you. A book is like a human person. It has its exterior appearance, but you have to digdown inside to find its true worth, feelings, attitudes, and what it has to say. And just as there aremany different people, there are many different books. A diverse world such as ours requires a questfor knowledge and an understanding of ideas and attitudes, part of which must be gleaned by individualseeking through books. Our opportunity is provided for us if we wish to take advantage of it. Tomorrowwe will have a better library after the new addition is completed. Tomorrow we will have even moreopportunities to take advantage of in better facilities. But today we must "Wake Up and Read." DR.COLLIER Book review by Linda Kleve An arrow traveling from a book to a man's heart via the braindecorated many posters throughout the campus and acquainted the students with the observance ofNational Library Week. This symbol was further carried out by the slogan, "Wake up and read for aricher, fuller life." Sporting a distinct and enjoyable English accent, Mr. Alan Collier of the ArtDepartment started off the series of book talks and discussions last Monday afternoon in the GraduateReading Room. Mr. Collier's book talk was on "The Phenomenon of Man." The author of this highlychallenging book is Pierre Teilhard De Charden, whose complex name appears to fit the complexity ofthe book. However Collier treated his subject in an "intellectually exciting" manner. Mr. Collier isWestern's contribution from England. A painter and scholar, he has won laurels on campus forspeaking and is presently writing two books. In reviewing The Phenomenon of Man, Collier let his ownthoughts wander about the book anl illuminated these thoughts by reading applicable passages. Mr. Collier commented that he was first drawn to the book by enthusiastic English Reviews. Accelerating and frightful ideas De Charein, in his book, unites the material and physical world with April 21, 1961 ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1961 April 21 - Page 5 ---------- the spiritual. This aspect adds to the richness and possibly uniqueness of the book. According to Collier, the ideas expressed are "accelerating" and "frightful." Accelerating in that he gives the universe atremendous sense of purpose, and fright-iul because of the immensity of vision and the giganticscale of life he presents. The chapters lead from the subject of disintegration to its opposite — unity,as De Chardin speaks of the evolution of the mind with the concept of energy. According to Collier, heis "showing through science a glimmer of something greater than science." Collier further commentedthat this was, in his opinion, "the most fascinating book written in the last twenty years on this subject."The Phenomenon of Man may adequately fit the symbol of the book and man's heart. As the arrowpasses from the ideas of this book, through the brain, to the heart, the aspect oi religion and sciencebecome correlated and man becomes occupied with the idea of an "imaginative reason for living."Whether it be The Phenomenon of Man or War and Peace, it is worthwhile to pick up a book and"wake up and read for a richer, fuller life." SPEECH CONVENTION People from all areas "People will be here from all areas of speech: therapy, speech education, drama and forensics. They will also be fromall levels: elementary, secondary and college." Dr. Laurence Brewster, president oi the WashingtonState Speech Association, enthusiastically talked about their convention which will be held on ourcampus this Friday and Saturday, April 21 and 22. Not only will the people attending the conventionbe from different areas and levels, but many of the panels are made up of cross sections of people withconcerns in varying areas of the speech iield. Other panelists will concentrate on one specific area orproblem, while well-known speakers, a banquet, a luncheon, and the presentation of the DramaDepartment's "Rumpelstilt-skin" complete the well-rounded, well-packed convention agenda. Friday'sprogram begins with a general session under the heading, "Ideas That Have Worked in the Teaching ofSpeech" with panelists from different levels of education. In the afternoon general session, persons frommajor Washington April 21, 1961 industries participate in a panel discussing "Communication inIndustry." There are also two groups of special interest sessions on Friday. The first has twosessions; cne dealing in speech education, and the other in drama with drama students from RooseveltHigh School taking part. The other session is concerned with radio and television and. has in its panelpersons in both educational and commercial aspects of the field. At the Friday night banquet LouisBruno, State Superintendent of Public Instruction, is the featured speaker, talking on "Speech in the 1960 Campaign." Dr. Bess Sondel will speak later in the evening in the College Auditorium at 8:15, on"Words as Speculative Instruments." On Saturday, Harold Michal-Smith, professor of Clinical Psychiatry and Director of Psychological Services at Metropolitan and Flower-Fifth Avenue Hospitals will give two speeches, "Psychological Problems of Teachign the Physically Handicapped" and "PsychologicalAspects of the Acoustically Handicapped." Another speech will be given by Dr. Bess Sondel at thebefore noon general session on "Communicative Theory." Special interest sessions will deal with transfer of credit in speech from junior colleges to universities and other colleges, and speech educationresearch projects. BESS SONDEL Lecture on words Bess Sondel, Professorial Lecturer inCommunication from the University of Chicago, is coming to Western on April 21 at 8:15 p.m. to speak on "Words as Speculative Instruments." She will lecture on April 22 at 11:00 a.m. in the Viking Union Lounge on "Communication Theory, 1961." Professor Sondel took her Ph.D. (cum laude) with Phi BetaKappa in 1931. Her Ph.D. was interdepartmental in that her researches were concerned with thehistory of ideas with correlations in philosophy and the humanities. When asked in 1936 to instruct acourse in Speech, she protested that she knew nothing at all about communication. This was, she wastold, among her qualifications for the task. She began to study in earnest, making the physical andbehavioral sciences the "basis for study in communication theory. Her focus, through the years, hasbeen on human behavior as mediated by words. The WESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAI result has(brought her national recognition for the development of a field theory of communication. Dr. Sondel isthe author of many books, and she is currently the author of the column entitled, "Personal To You," inthe Chicago Sunday Tribune. She served as Consultant to the Industrial Relations Center of theUniversity of Chicago (1950-53); as Consultant in Communication to the Faculty of the Graduate Schoolof Business, University of Chicago; Consultant to Albert Ramond Associates, Industrial Engineers (1955-56). Dr. Sondel is a member of the Mayor's Commission on Human Relations (EducationCommittee) of the City of Chicago. She is also listed in Who's Who in the Midwest; Who's Who inEducation; Who's Who of American Women; and in the forthcoming issue of Leaders in AmericanScience (Behavioral; Communication). SWEA Requirements listed Those interested in the teachingprofession will not want to miss the next meeting of SWEA, April 24, 7 p;m., in the Campus SchoolAuditorium. The topic "New Horizons" will be discussed by Dr. Wendell Allen, Director ofCertifications, Washington State Board of Education; Vern Archer, Treasurer of WEA; and Dr. AllenRoss, head of Western's Graduate Study. These men will present information pertaining to the newmovement concerning teacher requirements and certification. At a recent regional meeting of SWEA a panel of Washington educators of various capacities spoke on the essential requirements forteachers. Here is a condensed version of their list. 1) Teachers must recognize each child as adistinctly different personality with needs, capabilities and limitations. 2) Teachers must be able toaccept each child as he is and the product of the home from which he comes. The teacher must be able to serve the needs of the child by making him feel important and wanted. 3) Teachers need to beprofessionally qualified, versed in new methods and techniques, thoroughly prepared in subject matterand able to present the materials in meaningful lessons. 4) Teachers must be interested in thecommunity in which they teach. This goes beyond the tacit acceptance of minor responsibilities.

Fosnick picked up two hits for the Viks and pitched a four hitter as he downed the Loggers in the nightcap 4-1. In the first game,sophomore Ken Schultz allowed only five hits, but came out on the short end of a 2-1 score. The Vikscould manage only five safeties off Jerry Hoxsey, UPS ace, and were never able to bunch more than twointo any one inning.

St.Martins, rather an unknown quantity, has had trouble winning thus far and should not give too muchcompetition to the pennant contending Vikings. INTRAMURALS "Gung-Ho's" to hold meet Western'sfirst intramural track meet has been definitely set ior May 11 and 12 at the College oval. Dr. MargaretAitken and Dr. Ray Ciszek, co-directors for the meet, announced that entry blanks are now availablein their respective offices. The meet will provide competition on both an individual and team basis and inaddition will have men and women divisions. "There will be team scores kept so contestants are urged to form their teams as soon as possible," stated Dr. Ciszek, "but individuals will also be able to completeunattached." He also pointed out that a minimum of six turnouts are required beiore the meet. Events to be staged include all the running events from 75 yards up to and including the mile run, the 200 yard low hurdles, a 440 yard relay and a 880 yard relay. Also on the agenda are the high jump, broad jump, polevault, shot 'put and discus. The women's division will include running events from 50 yards to 880 yards,the 70 yard low hurdles and both relays. Field events for the ladies will feature the high jump, broadjump, 8-lb. shot put, softball throw and the standing broad jump. In addition to the intramural aspectsof the game, national awards will be given to the top three places in each event at Western. This will bedone through the co-operation of the American Association of Health, Physical Education andRecreation. Contestants are free to use the running track at any time, according to the meet directors.This includes after school sessions when the Varsity track squad will be conducting turnouts. TRACK Thinclads post first win Don Trethewey remained unbeaten, but Pete Kempf stole the spotlight asWestern's thinclads scored their first victory of the season, 69 to 63, over Eastern Washington. Kempfpicked up a first in the discus, second in the low hurdles and javelin, a tie for second in the high jumpand a third in the high hurdles for 14 points. Kempf — versatility man Trethewey won his specialties, the mile and two-mile for ten points and second high honors. A "bonus" was picked up by the Vikings when Jim Freeman came in third in these two events and extended Eastern's ace Clyde Carpenter. Anotherdouble winner was Jerry Joyce in the 100 and 200 yard events. The latter was shortened due to a soggytrack. Joyce also shared in the mile relay that assured the Viking victory, with a time of 3:27.4 for thebest time in the conference so far. Cal Pap-ritz was the next double winner as he posted wins in bothhurdle events. These were Papritz's first points of the year as he broke into the point column with abang. Next up for the blue-and-white is a triangular meet between UPS and PLU in Tacoma tomorrow.Joyce should meet his sternest competition tomorrow when he faces Jack Hig-^j gins wiho was rankednationally last year. Another trouble area for the ! Viks will be in the pole vault. Ron Hanna, former WWC athlete, is favored to cop this event for the Lutes. After four meets, senior Don Trethewey paces thecindermen with 40 points. RUGBY Rugby Club finishes second Western's Rugby Club had to settle forsecond place in the Vancouver Rugby Union when they were beaten eight to three by the defendingchampion Meraloma Club last Saturday in the British Columbia city. The Viking ruggers, playing theirfirst season in the first division of the Union, were missing several of the players that toad pushed theminto the championship game. Mike McVay, one of the stalwarts of the scrum line, is not in school andSam Martin, "three line" sparkplug, was out with injuries. In addition, Dennis Sheppard, one of theruggers' leading scorers, played under the handicap of two shoulder separations. It was another ofthe recent "walking wounded" that scored the only try ifor the Rugby Club. Ray Devier punched overthe ruggers' only score from a "scrum" situation. Finishing second is actually quite an accomplishmentfor the "bloody Yanks." Coming on the heels of the recent third place finish in the California Invitational Tourney, the ruggers showed they can play with the best of the teams on the coast. The outlook fornext year is at the time still pretty hazy. Not satisfied with their status this past year, the club isexploring several different avenues of participation. TENNIS Netmen drop third in a row Winless afterthree starts, Western's tennis squad will try to even their conference standing at one and one nextTuesday when they travel to UPS for a match with the Loggers. Last Saturday the netters were shut out, 7-0, by Central's strong contingent.

"Dramatists and Director Merit lt; Laurels for Mama Portrayal , By GEORGE HESS Last Wednesday evening this re-r* porter; had. the pleasure of seeing the WWC student dramatists' pre- * sentation of John Van Oruten's fe play, "I Remember Mama." Traditionally, a dramatic critic is sup- • gt; posed to point out the good (and bad)., points of a presentation. This i* particular rendition defies classification in this respect, however, for each and every performer turned in ^ a sincere and almost flawless performance. ' HOPPE PRAISED .+ First laurels must go to Victor Hoppe, director. Although all the gt; performers had obvious natural talent, the credit for their near-professional polish rightfully belongs to Mr. Hoppe. Without belittling the actors in any way, I can , truthfully say that the presentation paid shining tribute to Mr. ^r Hoppe's skill. I should like to hand a verbal orchid to Evelyn Wulff for her por- 4, trayal of "Mama." She gave the role . a vitality and vigor which, along P with her charming naturalness, did much to make the play a success. Her Norwegian accent was superb. Outstanding in the character role •• of "Mr. Hyde" was Ralph Brown. . His sepulchral voice and exaggerated old-world manners added r greatly to the humor of the scenes in which he played. Besides acting in the play, Brown served as assist- , ant director. In the latter capacity • he contributed the benefits of two year's previous experience in the semi-professional dramatic field. UNCLE CHRIS CONVINCING Thornton Ford was very convincing as "Uncle Chris," the blustering but kind hearted head of the family. Beth Folsom did very well as "Katrin," the oldest daughter and narrator of the story. (Continued on page 8.) WHO WANTS TO BE A DELEGATE? Any student in the school who would be interested in attending the Fourth Annual Pacific Northwest College congress at the University of British Columbia on January 6, 7 and 8, as an official delegate of the Associated Student Body is requested to submit a signed application to the P.N.C.C. committee in the Associated students office before 4 p. m., Monday afternoon. Delegates will have their expenses paid by the ASB to the congress. Two delegates will be selected on the basis of their interest, special qualifications, and knowledge of world affairs in general. Delegates will participate in the forum discussions on the following topics: "The Iron Curtain," "The Berlin Blockade," "The Palestine Problem," "The Chinese Problem," and "Atomic Control.'.' The delegates will be expected to report to the student body upon their return. COLLEGIAN Vol.'XLVII—No. 10 Western Washington College, Bellingham, Washington Fri., Dec. 3, 1948 Pearson, Kent, Radcliffe Elected To Board; Card Playing Out Ann Pearson, Jim Kent, and Bill Radcliffe were selected for the three Board of Control positions in the-election held last Tuesday and Wednesday. A total of 638 votes were cast. Ann Pearson received 293, entitling her to the position of Four-quarter woman. Her two opponents, Betty McLeod and Harriet Lang, received 336 collectively. Jim Kent, who- garnered the position of One-quarter man or woman, was given 316 votes, with his ticket-mates, Margery Ness and June Carrick, "getting 318. Bill Radcliffe was the victor over Jean Selander and Charlie Borden in the race for Four-quarter man or woman, receiving 252 of the ballots cast, while his "ri38 votes was cast. " - The Referendum about card playing in the lounge asking if the Board's decision should be upheld or not, was given a vote of: Upheld 495, Repealed 130, the result being that the decision will be upheld. JIM KENT BiARD RESTORES COFFEE PRICE Lounge to be Underwritten Until Investigation Completed * gt;• Qoffee in the student lounge shall cost five cents until the Board of Control completes an investigation ** of the situation in the student :• lounge. This decision was reached at the regular Wednesday meeting * in the ASB office, December 1. jl Gus J»agels, ASB president, stated that the price of coffee*had been ,.'wdse|^bjg|Mr. Louis Earle, lounge ' nianafer because the students had not coeverated in keeping the -lounge » clean a i ^ t i to absolutely neces|Hi^ that the loung^ be kept inun^pula^e in order to meet health reqiUre- It was pointed out, however, that the price had been raised without the knowledge, or consent of trie hoard. vTbe board realized that because the students had not cooperated in keeping the lounge clean that Mr. Earle had been forced to employ extra help, and was not able to meet the increased costs. Dr. Lucy Kangley reported that the board paid $80 per month to support the lounge before the installation of the coffee bar and thus far we have lost only $64 per month. The board then decided to make a thorough ^investigation of the entire loungie problem and while this is in progress the boa/d will underwrite any josses mcurred ,by the lounge by selling five cent coffee. Ruth Soderstrom, AWS president, requested $30 from the rboard for the College Day conference that is to be held here in the near future. Neil Johnson inquired if the board had any space to house the club libraries. The board suggested that the administration be contacted, they did not have any space. Mrs. Ruth Burnet appeared before the board to give the financial report on the Profile and Homecoming books. . , •.' Gordon Sanstead reported that the Pacific Northwest College congress was to meet at the University of British Columbia and wanted to know if the board would appoint delegates to the.: conference. The board felt there was an overlapping in some of the conferences and wOuld appoint a committee to look into the.affair. Art Runestrand presented the Co-op constitution to the board, but because of the lateness of the hour, action on the issue was delayed. The board adjourned at 6:15 p. m. ;.;*/vns ANN PEARSON BILL RADCLIFFE One of our local boys, Bill Radcliffe was born in Bellingham twenty-three years ago. He attended the local high school and at present is a third quarter junior. A veteran of two year's service, in the navy (as a "desert sailor" in Nevada, Bill says), he is taking Teacher Training with Art as his major. ANN PEARSON Another Bellinghamite is Ann Pearson, who lives at Huntoon Drive. Born twenty-two year ago, Ann has lived here all her life. She, too, is a graduate of Bellingham High. Her activities include being treasurer of AWS, a former four-quarter Board member, and secretary of Valkyrie. Ann was married on ~ August 24, 1947, and plans to graduate in 1950. She is taking Teacher Training. JIM KENT Although he was born in Montana, Jim Kent "has lived twenty-two, of his, twenty-three years in WasMngton-rSeattle in particular: He attended Lincoln high in Se- BILL RADCLD7FE attle and went from there" to the University of Washington. Kent arrived at Western last fall and became a member of the "W" club. His favorite sports are football and track. He is a veteran of two year's service in the Air Corps. A senior in Teachers' Education, Jim plans to be married to Lois King sometime during this month. Assemblies Meld Assemblies held today for the AWS and Norsemen were in room 239 and the auditorium, respectively. Male members of the student body attended a Norsemen meeting, presided over by Gordon Smith; president, at 10 a. m., while Ruth Soderstrom, president of AWS, conducted an assembly for the women.

All Coffee Drinkers Should Applaud Boards Action If it isn't one thing, it's another. No sooner did the student-body settle the controversy of card-playing in the student lounge, than they are faced, or rather were faced, with a new problem—.10 coffee. Here is an analysis of the present situation: Monday, Mr. Louis Earle, manager of the co-op and the lounge, raised the hitherto .05 price of coffee to .10—carrying out his threat to do so which was sounded some weeks ago. Tuesday, the student coffee drinkers, finding themselves suddenly confronted with real inflation, began to object. Wednesday, the Board of Control acted to restore the price of coffee to its former level. Because of the need for employing extra help to keep the lounge clean, the lounge coffee bar suffered a deficit of $128.92 in October and November, or the sum total of $64.46 per month. The Board, in restoring the former price, assumed responsibility for the deficit but since the Board formerly paid out $80 a month for lounge upkeep, it was still money ahead. So while the coffee drinkers are once more satisfied with, anti-inflationary controls, the Board is probing into the situation thoroughly with the vigor of an un-American activities committee. Lovers of the "golden liquid" will be toasting the health of the Board for their prompt action. If Western Washington college had a "Shadow" or a "Sherlock Holmes" in its employ, it would soon be known who stole "Victor"— the bushy, defiant Viking warrior who stood guard at Homecoming. "Victor" disappeared at the "W" club's Homecoming ball. Because thievery is not condoned and because the Viking concert band needs "Victor" as a backdrop for the winter concert season when the band goes on tour... Please return "him." 6 iOlViHG Like Money in the Bank . . . Bill Radcliffe, artisto magnifico (pretty darn good) is getting his stuff on the market these days. To date, he has the Washington State Coop magazine as buyers for his aesthetic covers—pictures, a' course. And you probably remember Nita Clothier—creative writer and dramatist supreme. A feature-length story of hers is being seriously considered by an eastern magazine, the "American Pen." Looks like education pays off. Gonna get me some, ah reckon. Wahhhh! Notre Dame thinks it has the first "maternity fund" ever raised at a men's college. The campaign has a goal of $5,000 to be used to defray expenses of married vets attending the college. A hundred births are expected in the next seven months to the 500 couples living there. Ugh! Redmen Head Red . . . The placid countenances of 25 Oklahoma Indians were slightly diffused recently when they got lost in the woods they are traditionally supposed to know. They were returning from a tribal council weiner^ roast. You realize, Jeffrey, this means war!. Comes the Revolution Just got word that single men (non-married, I guess) in the navy will have to pay income tax starting the first of this month. Probably true of all branches of the service . . with Pagels . . . somebody shoulda told Vance Nelon; he enlisted in the army last Wednesday. Spirits of Western . . . Some sort of movement should be started to get back that plywood statue of Vic the Vik the junior class donated to the school. Student's went to a lot of trouble to obtain the plywood, the artist, paints and gt; •• the time to give the school a little spirit. Too bad a few students (probably loaded with spirits) decided that their room needed a little cheering up. Esquire magazine, for the information of these shortsighted students, are on sale at any local drug store and the students should derive far more desirable speculation than Vic could provide. I know, I know, this column should be rechristened "Griping old." Home Ec Major . . . A sign in a gas station-cafe outside of Lyman reads: "Eat here and get gas." Need What the Joneses Have? In Albuquerque, New Mexico, a shop-owner hung out a unique sign: "Antiques made and repaired." Ah, nothing like a custom-built antique loungin' around the house when the Vanderbilts show up. The reason for the ten-cent coffee? Only because students couldn't seem to develop enough muscular coordination to firmly grip the cup, walk over and put it on the counter on their way out. Maybe someone should call signals. ' Revolutionary Clan Begives World A Radical Heir By JOE KING Ego.ergo, I come from a long line of revolutionists. For centuries my ancestors havtf been known as the very instigators of progression. The title "Starters of Beliefs" was the term by some people knew them, but most just referred to "those so-and-so's who are always starting something." Practically every generation of the Jan has produced a noteworthy, if not distinguished, revolutionist. Why even today we are known as the most revolting family in town. ' But it is more for practical reasons than for_tradition that I want to suggest a brand new idea. A holiday. Not the regular rotten old run of holiday, you understand, but something different, novel, satisfying. Instead of the ordinary like Thanksgiving, let's set aside a day in January, say, when the weather is at its worst, upon which everyone blasts loose. Celebrate On . . . oh, maybe January 28 (that's a nice lousy sounding date), the whole country will celebrate "I Will Not Be a Hypocrit Day." Hypo-crasy, in any form, will be banned for twenty-four hours. If you want to kick the kindly old lady who lives next door, go ahead; beat your wife, fine; put gravel in the kid's oatmeal, great; poison the neighbor's well-water, oh my, such possibilities. This'll be your day. Nothing phoney about it. If the street car conductor says, good morning, slap him in the mouth. It's raining and he knows it. That kid with the police whistle, bounce him on the sidewalk. You've wanted to for a long time. And when you're holding a chair for the bleach-topped blonde, ho-ho-ho. Go ahead and do it. Look Honestly Yes, this will be the day. Piles of late mothers-in-law, used car dealers still smoldering at the stake, nothing left. but big, high fences, fences, everywhere fences. Mercenary "medicos" leave the hospitals, Salvationists swap their tamborines for beer and everyone builds a fence. I know, I know. Baloney. Why should we build real fences when the ones we have now are just as good. And why put an end to hypocrisy when people have so much fun with it. Anyway, Christmas is coming and 'tis time of the year to shelve all troubles and prejudices. That splendid season when we all break down and look at each other honestly. Me, through my knothole, at you. And you, through your knothole, at me. i ^ne+tdl owkI'fytuia By LYLE DANIEL { Post Intelligencer—Madrid ^"W -4 Francisco Franco . . .

By GEORGE HESS 7^ Now seems an appropriate time for your observer to engage in a little" one sided bull-session on things in general (since he can't find a doggone thing to discuss in particular). If you gentle readers, disagree jytth anything or everything said in this column please don't undertake'jto punch the writer in the nose. Just sit down and hurl your choicest invectives into a letter to the editor—he really needs more letters to print anyhow. And besides, your observer's* king-size probiscus is quite allergic to being belted around. Gripe, Gripe Now for the gripe paragraphs: Firstly, this writer has been conducting an apparently unsuccessful one man campaign to get some kind of trash receptacles placed outside the outside doors to all the main buildings. Maybe if some more students showed some interest in this project the Board of Control would take action. How about hearing from some, of you on this subject? Secondly, why isn't some action taken to fill, in those tank traps in the road, leading past the south parking lot? Or are they being left there in anticipation of the next war? Oh, well, if the swimming classes outgrow the pool they can always adjourn to those water filled chuck-holes—the water is deeper there anyhow. Who Was to Blame? Your observer's tender ears have been assailed recently by much cussing and discussing of the hike in * coffee prices in the lounge. "Why couldn't they have done this,; instead? Or that?" everyone wants -M to know. One intrepid individual even suggested that the coffee bai gt;- gt; be abolished entirely and a Hap room installed. Said he could get a*" glass of beer anywhere for the sam,e^_ price as a cup of coffee "-in* the lounge — ten cents — and that he\~ never did like'coffee anyway. Your writer must withhold opinion on** this latter solution. He can only Bay that we students were givenj frequently repeated warnings . ry stfaat, we ignored them for the most gt;partB . . . and that the coffee.hike, wasP nobody's fault but our own. .„ .,: This column must be clps^d.now^ (probably to the intense ..relief of. anyone who has struggled alonj* this far).

I was quickly informed that it was Norwegian. "At ourhome," Miss Wulff explained, "we all speak Norwegian." - No wonder Evelyn plays the part of the Norwegian mother with so much enthusiasm. No wonder she speaks with such a/realistic Nor^ wegian accent. She is very thrilled about her part in the play and say's she Cloves it."

The meeting was held in the club room of Edens hall, Wednesday, December 1. Problems discussed by the group were faculty supervision, the use of profanity, house news, and news coverage. Harry Pagels, Louella Haggen, Bonnie Pasley, Pat Somers, and Frank Adams presented policies of seven professional papers which they had investigated. The general concensus of opinion was that letters to the editor, if accepted, aregprinted verbatim. Profanity and vulgarity aire kept out of the news columns except as used in quotes. Some papers have attorneys to review any questionable material to see if it is libelous or slanderous. Public opinion and business policy act as effective checks on newspapers. House news again came in for discussion, with Shirley Dickenson proposing that each living unit, including the veterans groups, be urged to gather social and personal items weekly. The group expressed opposition to any resumption of last years house gossip columns. Suggestions were made for getting more student names in the Collegian. Future meetings may be scheduled to continue the discussion. PJDENT POLL REVEALS FRANCO FEELINGS By BEV GORDON Should Franco of Spain be giv- #? e h recognition?" was the subject M{ fom fcqulring reporter used this ^^ast'^eefc;" Judging from the stu- VIAdents'"answers, he is really on the rmrocks; for almost all seem to be in £; alfreement that we should have Ai ^o^ninig°tb-dd with the gentleman '- from SpaihT _ . .Wnto asked by me if Franco ^nshqutd!W given recognition, Glenn i .u«*f 'A pUt; l t t h I s w a y . «NO, i don^t3 think so because, how can we advocate democracy when we make an alliance with others whose ideal-ogy is completely opposite." The next pollee, Ken Blakely, made this statement, "No, his policies are very undemocratic. His past reputation In collaboration with the Axis in World War II renders him incapable of conducting a modern civilized country in a fashion befitting the traditions of a cultured nation." John Hill, next on my list of the inquired, made these remarks: "No, Franco's communist tendencies do not provide a stable basis for him to be a leader in a country where the population is .in dire need of political, social, and economic uplift. The present conditions in Spain warrant a complete change-over to bring the spirits of the people from the mental depressions of the past wars to a level equalling that of the rest of the world. As I went along table hopping in the lounge, Herbert Spearin' gave me his views on the other side of the question. "Yes,, I think we should. We must ally with them against the evils which now threaten the world. They have fascism as a purely domestic situation; they have not tried to spread it over the world," was the way he expressed himself. Seated nearby was Paul Willet who made this remark: "Recognition of Franco's .Spain by the United States would mean an alliance with fascism. I definitely oppose both aid recognition to a man who so closely resembles the late Adolf Hitler." Expounding his idea of recognizing Franco quite emphatically was Glenn Cany who said, "No! The United States should help free the people of Spain." "No, because he isnt trusted by the people of Spain," was the answer given me by Dick Grimes. Drawing my poll to a close, this last minute idea was picked up in great haste from Montag Tortz, "Yes, because he is against communism." On the lighter side, were these two profound statements: Neil. Leone: "Well, it's a good spaghetti"; and Leroy Dixon: "Yes because there are lots of pretty senoritas in Spain." And here I end my rambling*until the next time—which, pray-tell, may be a long while from now 1 I'm tired from so much running. Some people have no sense ot nun^r r w ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1948 December 3 - Page 4 ---------- By RED ROBERTSON The AP All American selections are public, and the Pacific Coast is conspicuous by its absence. Jackie Jensen and Norm Van Brocklin were buried down on the third team," and where was a great tackle named Lauri Niemi of Washington State? Niemi was named lineman of the week a couple of times this fall and almost single handed, held the Nittany Lions of Penn State at bay last week. Not trying to be critical, but it seems to enhance a player's chances of being All American to go to school east of the mountains. • • • Lew Fonesca, director of motion pictures for the major leagues, says of the World Series films, "We just couldn't get a clear shot of the play at second base that set off the fireworks." • * * Who's sorry now? Oregon will realize about, two and one-half times as much as California on bowl games come News Year's Day. The Ducks will go Cotton Picking in Dallas, as Norm Van Brocklin meets Doak Walker in the day's prize aerial duel. Meanwhile the Bears will tangle with the Northwestern Wildcats at Pasadena. Oregon not only gets what the team makes at Dallas, but they will get their share of the Rose Bowl split, too. ' Oh, what a raw deal the Webfoots got when Cal was voted into the Rose BowH • . • •. George Mikan has averaged around thirty points a game, but his team, the Minneapolis Lakers, have won only three of their first seven games. Maybe the opposition has found a way to throttle big George . . . let him score, and cover everybody else. Sweepstakes Don't say we didn't tell you so. The number rose to 161 this week but still no one guessed the exact score. Dick King of 900 25th street. Joe T. Buhner of 610% Laurel, and Donald Van Voorst of 2025 Kulshan street all came within one point of the 28-13 Western-UBC score but still no one hit it. Deep consideration of the facts show that these 161 people and many more will have another chance to roll in some money. The sweepstakes has ben extended into the basketball season. Because of the number of games played during the season, the amount will be raised only one dollar per conference game. To make it a little more simple, the prophet planning to win much come within five points of each score. This sweepstakes will begin as soon as the first conference games is played. Frazier Cops Position On Conference Squad Big Jack Frazier, the pivot of the Western line, led the way in the balloting for the center spot on the Evergreen Conference all star team. Jack, who starred in football, basketball and baseball at Bellingham high before coming to Western, has lettered in football during his stay at the hilltop school, and has participated in many other activities. This year Frazier gained the plaudits of rival coaches' and players for his outstanding work as a defen sive line backer, where he often played the entire sixty minutes. Jack seemed to have a sixth sense and time and again he was waiting at the spot the play was aimed for. Western fans will be glad to know-that Jack will be back for more football with the Vikings next fall. The voting for the guard spots on the All Conference team produced a four way tie, and one of the four was Bill Currier, a transfer student, who won honorable mention in the Little All America selections last year. Bill made up for his lack of size with his speed, and often worked as the fifth man in the enemy back-field. Like Jack Frazier, Bill plays baseball. Last spring, his first at Western, Bill was a member of the Viking varsity. He also plays basketball, but his first love is the gridiron^ Bill, too, will be back again next fall. Jerry Karnofski and Norm Hash gained quite a bit of attention in the poll, and as a consequence they were named on the league's All Star team as alternate backs. ; Art Svidran was given credit for his work when he was picked T gt;y United Press, as a second team fullback in their All. Pacific Northwest team. ''-!•••'.: , • ,*••: - ^The Viks had a better than average season, winning five and losing four. After all, how many teams win more than they lose? Next fall, with the above mentioned all stars, and the promising crop of freshmen from this year, the Viks may be in a contending position at the end of the season. Here's how the All Conference team looks: Sam Adams of Whitworth and Vernon Morris of Pacific Lutheran at ends; Hank Pond of CPS and Lee Hake of Central at tackles; Bob Osgood of Central at one guard spot, and Warren Wood of CPS, Don Ros-bach of Eastern, Jack Carbone of PLC, and Bill Currier of Western, tied for the other; Jack Frazier of Western, center, and Bud Thrapp of Eastern, Vern Tucker of Whitworth, Mel Light of CPS and Rip Raappana of Eastern, backfield men. Mathes Holds High Series In Elk League Kelly, witlj the VAC, is grabbing honors at the Elks club alleys this past week, rolling a 182 game.

The Huskies retained their position by overrunning the Dirty Jerks 40-30. In the "C" league the Night Riders beat the third place Pinochle Five 30-24. The only "A" league game scheduled, Mathes vs. Bear Cats, was won by forfeit by the Bear Cats. Hospice remains the only undefeated team in any of the leagues. Team standing as of December 1 are: Boys Peek i^i Fern Athletics During a PE class this past week some "athletic" boys were taking an illegal peak at the girls basketball progress, we hope! From the look on their faces (ear-linking grins) you could judge that the general attitude was that of hopelessness and laughter. But if the prejudiced opinion that boys are "tops" in athletics could be done away with,,you would notice that the girls real?y jdo play basketball. Mary Pagels has a right arm shot that seldom fails and when she J s backed up by fast forwards like Pat Smith, Gail Dillon, and Jesse Isom, it forms a combination hard to beat. On the guarding end Ruth, Wright and Josephine Vezzetti keep any opposing forwards troubled. Louise Oliveri, besides playing good basketball is also "graceful" and "dramatic" on the floor. Mrs. Ciszek is having some of the girls, who possess a respectable knowledge of the rules, referee the practice games. A LEAGUE W L Pet.

As Coach MacDonald puts it, "The team is shaping up "fairly well, but will need a IKW practice games before league competition. "New men who have shown fairly good promise are W. Green, Wieks, Gar-orison, Patterson, Norgaard and Ravenhorst." Bill Garrison is ruled ineligible because of attending CPS last year. Following this week's game, the'Viks will journey to the University of Washington for a tilt on December 10, and to an Invitational Tournament at Pacific Lutheran college on December 11. • * * University of British Columbia seems to be having no small amount of trouble in getting their sports calendar lined up. One of the requirements for league membership in the Evergreen conference is full participation in the entire sports calendar.

The matter has been placed under the supervision of the conference athletic directors. * * * Congratulations to Jack Frazier for being chosen all-conference center to the Evergreen league.

Western follows this encounter with another extra-curricular fray the following evening against Seattle Pacific college. The tentative starting line-up for the Blue and White has Stan Peterson and Jerry Starr, forwards; Dick Ravenhorst, center; and Tom Green and Jack Ross holding down the guard spots.

One month on the sands and eleven on the rocks." 'Not Long'Writer Pleads For Help, Deliverance Dear Sir: I am one of the less fortunate individuals of Western Washington college who is forced to drag myself, with my feet, up the steep hills of High street, to the college campus. As I am not an experienced mountain climber, I find it pretty grim when the rain is pelting down, and the wind is howling around my earmuffs, trying to make me late for class. Every few seconds I hear a swish, and some monstrous automobile sails past, covering my already soaked being with muddy spray. More often than not, there is only one occupant, namely the driver, sitting so smug and comfortable, not bothering to guess my plight. What I want to know is this: Why won't my fellow Westernites pick me up and give me a ride? Where is the spirit of cooperation at WWC? Is it dead? Frankly I'm beginning to think so. In the meantime I am dying a slow agonizing death on the hills of High street. Breathlessly yours, Not Long for This World.

Mr. O'Brien said that for the first time in its three year history The Writer will be released with illustrations of the three groups: poetry, short stories, and essays.

Then noisy thumps and bangs—What is it, you- might aesk? Well, don't be alarmed. It isn't a commando course or a stray gym class. It's just the cast of the minstrel show rehearsing the strenuous cake-walk. After struggling through the cake-walk, the cast breaks into a chorus or two. of that popular minstrel song, "Mandy." And then on with'the show! Behind these scenes of glory, are many hard; working students who gain little recognition for their labors. Ann Easterbrooks, business manager of the show, is busily at work preparing for show publicity.

Lorraine McConnell has worked many hours on the script, and is assisting in the directing. Pat Bright is working on acts of the third part of the show, which is not completed, as yet.

Navy Man Weds Girl in Khaki • Quartermaster second class Don Gooding, USN, former WWCollegian sports editor and sports writer on the Herald, left Seattle by plane on Sunday, October 31, for St. Augustine, Florida, where his marriage to Lieutenant June Mohrman, of the WAC, was to take place during the week. Miss Mohrmann, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Pete Mohrmann. of Fern-dale, was prominent in musical activities at WWC, and is also a former WWCollegian staff member. Gooding, who was home with his parents for a few hours before his departure, has been on a small nayal supply ship plying Alaskan waters for more than a year. American Legion Hears Dahlgren • Elaine Dahlgren, freshman, spoke to the American Legion last Monday for American Education Week. Her topic was "Education for World Understanding." ^Edward Olson, a senior at Belling-ham high school, spoke on "Education for the Air Age," and Betty-Jo Sutherland, a ninth grader from Fairhaven junior high school, spoke on "Education and Health." , Arthur E. Bowsher, principal of Fairhaven junior high,: replacing i ^ . ^ W . Haggard, introduced the speakers. After the. meeting, Richard Green from Bellingham high school played a medley of World War I songs. - . ••-'••.'_. Gamp Candies Word received from Dickinson, North Dakota, while many prominent students of last year are in V-12 training, among them Fred Strankman, Don Leu, Bill Sweeney, Wade Haggard, Floyd LeBaron, and others, reports a between-quarter jaunt to the Minnesota-Dickinson football game. Bad luck went along though, for the bus carrying the football fans had four flat tires, ran into IY2 feet of snow and the North Dakota team lost the game 27 to 4. Dale Jacobs, better known as "Jake" to students of WWC last year, has written asking that the WWCollegian be sent to him. Private first class Jacobs is now with the 832nd Bomber Squadron, Davis —Monthan Field, Tucson, Arizona, after having been stationed at a number of different camps in the East, and Middle West. "Jake," with an overseas training outfit now, sends his regards to all the "guys and gals" he knew last year and hopes to visit WWC for a day during his furlough coming up within the next month. Benefit Dance Held To raise money for carrying on the work of the School Patrol, the Veterans of Foreign Wars sponsored an Armistice Day dance in the Eagles hall last night. Tickets for the affair sold at $1 each and letters were sent to Campus school parents urging their support. Reporter Finds Governor Langlie Regular Heads South Guy Cadet and Mrs. Harold Key were married recently in Athens, Ohio, where the groom is stationed. The bride is the former Gera I d i n e Meek, of Bremerton, and attended W WC last year. • Placing his hand on the shoulder of the WWCollegian reporter in a friendly gesture, Governor Arthur B. Langhe drew him toward the couch. "Sit down" the governor said, as he himself perched precariously on the broad arm; "Now, what can I do for you?" As naturally as in a locker room bull session, questions and answers followed. "Everything possible will be done for our returned service men and service' women who wish to finish their schooling after the war," the chief executive affirmed earnestly. "The matter is now being studied extensively, and this state will undoubtedly find the best solution for its own people before the war is over." Mr. Langlie's eyes, thoughtful yet lively, seemed to smile as he added, "The state has already set aside $2,- 500,000 for helping returning fighters to get ire-settled in civilian life. In addition, it is expected that the federal government will allocate funds in each state for the same purpose. "We want our soldiers to have something definite to come home to this time." he continued, his expression sterner at the recollection of World War I injustices. "A secure place must be found for them," he said. According to Governor Langlie, the State of Washington is also in the forefront in the post-war planning of college and university buildings. As more fully explained on page 1 of this issue, the Western Washington campus will be among the beneficiaries in the projected building program. . Boys drafted from high school while in their last half year may expect to receive diplomas without further schooling, in Governor Langlie's opinion, while those with more than a half year to finish will be given a chance to make the credits necessary for graduation. "Possibly there will be vocational schools for them," the governor commented, "or some similar type of school they will be willing to attend." Another pat on the shoulder and the chief executive left to chat with a bevy of feminine admirers. Back on the couch, the reporter jotted down a single note. "Governor Arthur B. Langlie—a regular guy."

Hal went down to L.A. a couple of weeks ago to watch some of the coast teams in action and stated that, "Some of the old Winco clubs could .have trounced any of the Southern teams."

With himself scoring most of the tallies, Ernie has done a great job in keeping his boys in. top form. Burklund and Pomeroy have been taking their share of the load.also and both of these boys have shown lots of promise. Lenning, Martinson, De Pastel, and Kuljis have done fine work in sharing the reserve load for the leaders. Maybe the boys will get dumped yet, though. HOSPICE BOWLERS ROARING ....After geting off to a bad start, the boys from the corner of Garden Terrace and High have swooped in for two straight kiUings in the intramural bowling league and are now riding a sweet second Don Eldridge has his boys throwing them down the chute with an un-defiant accuracy and the way it looks now, they are headed for the leaders. . • EXTRAS Who are the Vikings going to play in basketball this winter ?-Rumors have it that they might meet the Huskies in a home and home series.

But they paid her and the other ihitiates back with other salty sea tricks such as blindfolded jumps, apple bobbing, and peanut blowing down the pool. Ruth Mclnnis organized the initia-- tion and was assisted during difficult moments by Vinnie Zankich. After it was all over, the new wet Barnacles were treated to refreshments— no, not water.

PERSONAL CHRJSTMAS CARDS YOUR NAME/|MPRINTED ' ' See Cajralog At STUDEI^S CO-OP Bad Luck Spills on Local Athlete • Breaks have fallen every way but good for the sports personality choice for this week and even with this deficit following him he has done noble in the world of sports. Graduating from Bellingham high in 1939 he was tabbed by all the local sports followers as the boy most likely to go places in athletics. In high he was an outstanding performer in baseball, basketball, and football, winning honors in each. He then traveled to the Palouse country where at Pullman he had quite a record to lay down for himself in the near future. That spring he worked out with the frosh baseball team and made a notch in his belt for numerous topflight performances. In his sophomore year he went up to varsity duty, where, although just a new member, the oldsters put him in their infield combination like a block of granite, and when the season v/as over, he had garnered himself a real name as a fielder and hitter. He was then called into the Army via the draft route. Here he was able to write his name in the service men's annals as the top third sacker in this district, while his team, the Fort Lewis Warriors, were winning the servicemen's tournament. He only spent one full year in the Army before he was given an M. D. Last year he entered school here and played basketball for Lappy, and in the spring was called to duty by the Seattle Rainiers for a chance to play Coast league ball. This is when bad luck started falling his way. First, he got a terrific Charley horse that kept him from cracking a regular position, and he was giyen a release until this had a chance to heal. While he v/as lesting around Bellingham he was playing some Sunday ball for the Bells and he broke his , ankle. This year his ankle is healed and he is ready to crack Lappy's basketball team. To you, Jim Gilday, WWC fires a salute of admiration. Twine Swishing Basketballers Highlight Intra Competition TEAM STANDINGS TEAM— W. L. Pet. Ludwicks 5 0 1.000 Warks 3 2 .600 Munizzas 1 4 .200 Gildays 1 4 . .200 Witt, Ludwick Both Score 26 Points In Single Game • Wark's basketball boys showed plenty of fire in bouncing the Mu-nizza gang to the tune of 44 to 26. last Monday afternoon. Dahl, Mol-drem, and Wark gleaned most of their team's points and showed fine all-around planning. Munizza and Baker staged a two man show accounting for all but two of their side's points. • Ludwick's team was able to scrap the Gildays boys off the floor on the same night as the previous game by a 39 to 30 margin. Ludwick and Burklund played heads up ball for the winners. On Tuesday, Wark's high riders gave trie fast improving Gilday boys another spanking by a 60 to 48 score. Jim Gilday played a scrappy game and with the help of Herb Witt and Warren Lambert made 28 of their team's 30 points. Tuesday night's"game of Gilday's and Wark's teams turned out to be the greatest scoring spree to date, Wark's team making 60 points. "Sugar" Moldrem starred for the Wark five pushing in 25 points, while Hillier and Wark held him up by making another 25 points between them. Herb Witt sparked Gilday's bunch and almost upset the game by making an individual scoring record of 26 points. Only having four men throughout the game gave Gilday's team a aisaG vantage, but even with the four, they outscored their opponents second half total by one point. With hustling Larry Munizza leading, the Munizza five almost upset the Ludwick boys' apple cart Wednesday night. The game showed all the promise of being an ordinary contest, but during the last half, things began to pop. Muniz-za's team leading by three points, was playing championship ball, and Ludwick's pace had slowed down to a walk. Then "Stork" DePastel saved the ship when he tipped in a "long" by Burklund. After that, heartened by "Stork's" basket, Lud IHAIRIPINS • Hockey held the top spot in the women's sports realm this week with some mighty vicious play being turned in by a couple' of the teams participating. The Freshman girls proved a little too much for the Upperclassers when they rolled to a 6 to 5 victory in their game Wednesday night behind the gym in the fem. hockey competition. The standout for the Freshman team was a little black dog which repeatedly carried the ball into the loser's territory. Miss Hawke and Alice Marie Anderson played outstandingly for the losers while Vinnie Zancich and Rachel Blekkink dropped in behind them in the supporting role. Nell Kosola, Barbara Caldwell, Joan Jones, and Gail Hunter all showed championship form in their victory along with their little friend, the black dog. Volleyball turnouts are being held regularly in the gym and many. girls are responding well. Tuesday night they held a short workout and teams are to be formed for further play in the future. There has been some suggestions by the girls that an intamural bowling league should be formed and operated on a mixed basis. What do you think, girls? Any ideas are gladly accepted in the box on the sports desk. and the boys swished three in quick succession during the last three minutes, winning by the safe margin of 36 to 28. ...WARKS (60) GILDAYS (48) Wark 13 ...;....F Gilday 12 Moldrem 25 F Lambert 6 Dahl 10 C Witt 26 Hilier 12 G Maclochlan 4 Martin G LUDWICKS (36) MUNIZZAS (28) Burklund 9 F Baker 3 Pomeroy 10 F Goif 5 DePastel 4 C Jones 3 Ludwick 13 ;...G.......l..-.

ENGLISHMEN PLAY FOR FUN Can what an Englishman once remarked regarding sports be true? He said that Americans play to win while Englishmen play for the fun of it. This English boy was chatting with an American girl and they were comparing their native sports. The conversation had begun with alternating discussions and explanations of rugby, football, cricket, baseball, steeple chasing, and horse .racing. But as they went on talking, the problem of comparing purposes and enjoyment in sports arose. They discovered that although there were many similar-' ities in rules and methods of play in America and England,, the spirit was different. AMERICANS TEAM-MINDED The English lad gave illustrations of the reactions of spectators in his mother country and those he's seen here in America. - It was true; the English seemed to "jolly littie care" who won as long as,it was a thrilhng contest, arid they would loudly, applaud or \ cheer a gallant feat or brilliant play on either side. Of course, we Americans cheer an outstanding play made by our opponents also, but not too often.; In our eyes it's generally our side that makes the brilliant plays. He claimed that the English spectators on the '•whole had twice as much enthusiasm. -But the Americans miss defended her sportsters^ by saying that they couldn't be Heat when it came to spirit at games. She had ytoiadmit that she's never seen the athletic picture in England. How- . ever, she upheld that it is through the element Of strong, competition that" the American game spi rit is attained. She also commented that •t with that morale booster, the com- ^petitive spirit/ the skill of team ^performance, is. encouraged. . .- v ^S^She admitted though,;that: the 0e^ryt|ir^^they' enter of terrxaus-es a Brooklyn Dodgers' booster to come to blows with a St. Louis Cardinals' fan. She also condescended that strong competitive spirit often results in pop bottles being thrown at umpires and referees for unpopular decisions. The English fellow had to admit that an unpopular umpire is vocally dealt with by the throngs over there, too. • SHE AND HE GET TOGETHER The American girl still thinks that we get as much fun out of our sports as the English do from theirs, and the English boy still thinks they have as much spirit at games as we do, ljut the two people helped each other unknowingly. She knows the English people better and understands their point of view. He made her realize more the fact that winning isn't all of a game. He has begun to see why it is the American rooters get such an extreme amount of pleasure in strong competition. Through her, he saw an American point of view which helped him to better uderstand these puzzling American ways. As the English boy recalled his first rash statement, he began to moderate it in his mind. As the American girl thought it over, she began to believe a little those opening words which at first had sounded so untrue. By MARILYN TURNER • Greetings and Merry Mardi Gras, students. Mardi Gras—translated that means "big celebration in the Student lounge—better be there." BIG NEWS: Polly Lawman has made a discovery comparable to the one made in California in '49 —a Coast Guard basketball team turns out in the gym every day at 1 o'clock. Don't go crazy girls and drop your afternoon classes! Week's visitors include two men of the Army Air corps: Art Dorcy Pfc. now stationed at Pendleton, Oregon, and Lt Carl Westman. Both men are former students of WWC. That Army slang is really tricky —Horizontal Engineering is commonly known as sleep. Sheet music is another G. I. term for it. "Do you know what good clean fun is?" Asked the parson on his visit. "I'll bite," answered the girl curiously. "What good is it?" Betty Herr is threatening to change her surname to Himm. Himm? Hummm—just imagine a "Himm" living at the Dorm!—Carol Hanify lost "it" but it wasn't a little yellow basket—it was her "glamour glasses"—Hey ( check Aileen Gardiner's third finger, left hand. On it she wears a big d-i-a-m-o-n-d and I do mean engagement! Congratulations, Aileen. While eavesdrop—I mean, while passing a couple of frosh in the Co-op I accidentally heard one of them say, "Yeah, but you oughta see Bob DePastel handle a couple of chickens"—Does he mean the kind that lay eggs—or was that a bad yoke? Ugh. Snatches of sentences can be interesting! "Early to bed and early to rise" must be the motto of" Ye Olde Collegian editor or haven't you noticed . the bed in the Publications office? I think the Cubs figured at first that they might get to take naps during class. Crazy kids! CUTE JOKE: (I think.) Can you drive with one arm? Sure— Well, here. Have an apple- - Well, kids!

(I don't like to say anything but does that name sound familiar to you? Seems I've heard it before. Oh, well, on with the story, I always say). Anyhoo, this dame Ella was really a moron. One of her favorite diversions was to get back of the stove and give herself a hot-foot! The only exercise she got was haul-in' cinders from the kitchen range to the garbage can—it finally got so that the local yokels dubbed her Cinder Packin' Ella. Poor old Ella got to feelin' the male shortage same as the rest of us after her boyfriend was drafted so one night she put on her wolfin' clothes and headed for the swing-shift dance. 'Course she told her old lady that she was going to grandma's (what a corny gag) but her dear old grey haired mother replied sweetly—"Don't give me that old guff. I know where you're go-in' ". So the old girl grabbed her raincoat and the two of them started off. Taking a detour past Hollywood and Vine they managed to snag a couple of sailors and I do mean snag (they each had a beautiful gold plated bear trap—given for outstanding riveting at Lega and Key-heed Aircraft.) Name engraved on the side, too. Really sharp. While standing on the , sidelines at the big brawl, a choice lookin' soldier sauntered up to Cinder and inquired, "Have you got the time " "Sure," she replied, "I got the time but not the money." "I mean what does your watch say?" "Tick, tick, t i c k , . . ." "Forget it—I didn't want to know the time anyhow—just kiddin'." Will the handsome soldier find out the correct time?

Of course I read the story, and much to my amazed amusement I found the story contained the following facts. Four of the University's bigshots gave a FATHERLY (?) lecture to the freshmen Co-eds. In regard to drinking, it was decided that most boys don't like girls who drink. But petting—well, here is what one of the lecturers said: "Petting, some do and some don't, but women are like potatoes, too cold and men don't like them, "too hot and they get dropped, but when they are just comfortably warm OH, BOY!" .

The Board purchased the controversial stereo set which was passed over by the last year's Legislature,made a great deal of progressive improvement at Lakewood and began molding the recreation roominto the activity room so needed in the Viking Union. The Summer Board is to be commended i'ortheir accomplishments. The stereo set is a valuable addition to the music room of the VUB. It allowsmany students the opportunity to play their records either for personal pleasure or for groupsatisfaction. At Lakewood the grounds have been trimmed and terraced, the drainage improved, theentrance widened and an exit provided. These improvements were all needed, and certainly theyenhance the appearance and value of the property. More vending machines and some pool and ping-pong tables have been purchased for the rec room. However, we must remember that the SummerBoard had the finances to do these things. When last year's Legislature is criticized for not buying the stereo and for not making these other improvements, they are being treated unjustly. The Legislaturelast year was working under a large deficit budget. It was all they could do to keep from getting further indebt.

I think not. If anything, the Legislature is tobe commended for handling last year's budget so wisely. In last spring's budget sessions, the mostefficient ever, the board whittled here and there and everywhere and came up with a budget for this yearthat is not in the red. The Summer Board accomplished a great deal. This year the Legislature working with a half-decent budget may be able to spend some money on similar niceties. At any rate let's notcriticize the Legislature without looking at all the ramifications of the issue. —The Editor Letters . . . To the editor: Unfortunately, many modern educators have taken the view that Industrial Arts isnot a necessary part of the education of our youth who are seeking a better understanding of the world in which we live. Many feel that Industrial Arts in the schools amounts to no more than teachingcraftsmen the skills ot putting together book-ends, tie racks and breadboards for use in the home.Others seem to feel that anything that involves labor to put together material things that are concrete,specific and measurable is not real knowledge and has little or no use to our society. Real knowledge isonly that which contributes something to mankind. Does not Industrial Arts contribute to mankind?Much of this confused thinking is a result oi.1 lack of understanding of Industrial Arts or perhaps poorjudgment of the more important things in this life. As a result, Industrial Arts have lost considerablerespect in the field of public school education. However, something (but not enough) is being done to gain back some of this respect. We who fight ior Industrial Arts maintain that it is an essential part of thegeneral education of all youth. Many educators look upon our field as only teaching "technical skills." Itdoes teach technical skills which are important, but it also teaches students discipline which develops a student's ability to think and reason. It also teaches the student: (1) to use and think with tools andmachines, (2) to read, (3) to learn the language and materials of industry, (4) to have an insight into the occupational opportunities and industry, (5) to gain practical knowledge and skills that are usefuland many times necessary in our everyday life, (6) to better understand and utilize many other areasof the school curriculum such as science, math and many others. If Industrial Arts did only increasepractical use in technical skills and understanding of industry, is not this alone enough to consider it anecessary part of our education? Our everyday life in any phase of activity, profession or field iscomposed of materials and operations related to Industrial Arts. Is this not just as important, if notmore important, than being able to quote lines from Shakespeare? Is not a knowledge and understanding of industry which surrounds us the mark of a well educated person? The importance and need ofindustry and its respectful place in the public school will never cease. Respectfully submitted, DonlErickson Among classical Hindu literature there is no work that has enjoyed a greater popularity norfound a larger audience than The Bhagavad Gita. A literal translation of the Sanskrit title would be "TheBlessed Lord's Song," "The Song Of God," or "The Song Celestial." In other words, The Gita is actuallythe word of God as delivered by Sri Krishna, the son aspect of the Hindu Trinity. Found among its pagesare three main things. The Gita is an exposition of Hindu philosophy, a gospel with a timelessmessage and lastly a book of mystical and ecstatic utterances as to the nature of God . . . the ultimatereality. It has been called "The New Testament of Hinduism" in that Krishna occupies the same positionin the Hindu trinity that Jesus occupies in the Christian trinity. Both Christ and Krishna werebearers of good news to a weary world. Gandhi the great Indian leader has called it his "spiritualreference book". To tell the full message of The Gita in a few installments would be impossible. Herewe will attempt to give "highlights" from the Gita . . . words that seem to have a particularly potentmessage. Page 2 WESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAN October 14, 1960 ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1960 October 14 - Page 3 ---------- HOW SHALL I WORSHIP? This question has occurred to every individual that has had the occasion tobe born into the world. Perhaps many persons become so confused by the multitude of religions andtheories of worship that they turn from worship entirely. The Gita speaks to such a person as well as tothe individual who is seeking ways to serve God. To the Hindu our ultimate destination is union withGod. A Christian parallel would perhaps be "when we are like Him we shall see Him as He is." Life,however, progresses from simple forms onward through more complex forms. The early Hindu sagesrealized that there were young souls and old souls among humanity. To all it is not given to know Godwith the insight of the advanced seer. To quote the Gita . . . "Who cares to seek that perfect freedom?One man, perhaps, in many thousands. Who among these seekers shall know the total truth of mybeing?" Indeed, it is not given to the child to know the adult world. That is a portion of the message of re-incarnation . . . next week's column. But now dear reader, as Fielding would say, back to our story. Achild may look ahead to the future but must be content to play with a representation of a car before he can have one to drive. So with the young soul. It must seek God the best way it can until it can actually experience God. The beauty of ritual is an essential part of worship. There is also the worship ofeveryday life. Again, in Krishna's words . . . "Whatever man gives me In true devotion: Fruit or water, Aleaf, a flower: I will accept it. .That gift is love, His heart's dedication. Whatever your action . . .Whatever the gift you give to another . . . Lay these also as offerings to me" These lines remind us ofChrist's plea to "Love one another." As He said, "As you have done to the least of these you have done it to me." Look around you and see. Observe the many paths to God and then find yours and follow it. Ifyour path is one of love towards God and your fellow man it is logical to assume it will not have an illend. As Rukmini said, "lay down your flower of devotion and do not call your brother's flower a weed, foryou will surely meet at the end of your trails upon a magnificent road." October 14, 1960 "Waiter! There's a fly in my soup." "I told that chef not to strain the fat through the fly swatter." LEGISLATUREBreaking All Records . . . Western's most powerful student-controlled organization, the Legislature,began the new year of policymaking with a two hour session, Wednesday, October 5. Weekly at theiropen meetings in the Viking Union, the fourteen members of the Legislature decide on issues and setprecedents improving or confusing student government indefinitely. Headed by ASB President, JerryBaker and Vice President, Jerry Caton; Barbara Logsdon, representing the senior class; Dick Hayes,the junior class; Judy Borman, the sophomores; and Don Bortles, the freshmen, will serve for threequarters. Bobby Brown, Larry Ernst and Nina Troutner will end their three-quarter positions in thewinter. Bob Burgoyne, Gary Gerhard, Gary Odegaard and Judy Runnels, appointed for three quarters,will serve until spring with Joel Everett, elected for two quarters. Bystanders crowded the room as Ken Jorgenson from the Finance Board told the Legislature that a complete new budget system is beingtried in the finance office, and pointed out omissions and additions to the ASB budget. Last year, theLegislature refused the rugby team $125 for traveling expenses because WESTERN WASHINGTONCOLLEGIA of insurance problems. Now, under the new insurance program, the team qualifies forintramural funds. Jorgenson suggested that the Legislature grant the team a $125 send-off. JackRabourn, chairman of the Summer Board of Control, reported the rehabilitation of the long-neglectedcollege property at Lakewood. Building roads, clearing a parking area, and improving the drainagesystem, the board also made long-range plans for the development of large portions of the property stilluntouched by student body funds. Unfortunately, unless the Legislature puts away a few funds forwinter's rainy days, the Lakewood project will wash out, predicted Rabourn. Last year the UnionBoard, hindered by a deficit budget, was unable to purchase a stereo system for the Music Room inthe Viking Union. Rabourn announced that the well-to- do summer board accepted Ernie Hinds' bid tobuild the stereo, and it is now ready for student use. President Baker recommended the appointment ofMarshall Bronson as Union Board Chairman to replace Karen Laulainen. Although Bronson doesn't meet the two-quarter membership requirement set forth in the revised by-laws, the only two qualifiedstudents on campus refused to apply for the position, and no legislator opposed the appointment.WAIT! Although the chairmen of the ASB departments have been selected and working for weeks, theywere not officially appointed until the Legislature's first meeting. Breaking all records for red-tapesnipping, the Legislature rushed through the formalities in a matter of minutes. Dr. Cederstrom, faculty advisor, dismayed at the appointment of an unfamiliar student, finally cried out to Baker, "Wait! Hemay be your buddy. I want to know his qualifications." Ken Jorgenson was elected Finance Chairman; Bill Moore, Facilities Chairman; Judy Orr, Pep Board Chairman; Carson Boysen, Elections BoardChairman; Gordon White and John Andersen, Co-Chairmen of the Co-op Board; Mavis Emmons,Public Relations Chairman and Louise Bailey was appointed ASB Secretary. Faculty advisors, Dr. Floraand Dr. Cederstrom, shared the last word — Flora describing the ASB department appointments as"selections in rote fashion," and Cederstrom suggesting that Baker recommend in his "swansong" report j Page 3 ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1960 October 14 - Page 4 ---------- • 1 " •• HOLLY'S MEN'S SHOP In the center of the Shopping District 106 W.

AGILE STUDENT BODY Jerry Caton,heading the Homecoming Committee, announced that the Armory will be unavailable for the Queen'sBall, and that the dance will be held in the college gym and the Viking Union. Bronson suggested thatsince two floors will be used, two types of music could be featured, "ioxtrots for the facultysegregated from the more agile student body." Doug Simpson, Collegian Editor, reported a deficit of$447.03 in the paper's budget from last year. Requesting that the money be returned, Simpson warned that otherwise the paper will go broke by spring. Bronson killed any action with a motion to tablediscussion 'til the Finance Chairman can report on the Budget Control accounts. Mr. Knabe wrote aletter to the Legislature suggesting the Co-op Grand Opening be held October 28. Gordy White objectedto the letter, saying Knabe's request had not been cleared by the Co-op Committee, and advised theLegislature not to allow "this dangerous precedent." YOUNG DEMOCRATS Rosellini To SpeakGovernor Albert D. Rosellini and U. S. Senator Warren G. Magnuson will speak in the main lounge of the Viking Union, Monday, October 17, at 4 p.m. "Everyone is welcome to meet the Governor and Senator," states Gary Odegaard, president of the WWC Young Democrats Club which is sponsoring this event.The two dignitaries will speak later Monday night at a $25 a plate dinner downtown in the AlpineCafeteria. Payson Peterson, candidate for Congress from the Second Congressional District, spoke at last week's YD meeting. If elected, Peterson said he will work for a strong national defense effort for this district which offers our great Puget Sound, "a spawning ground lor our submarines," in Peterson'swords. He said our district also offers a huge a-mount of hydroelectric power and a top labor force.DEBATE WITH WESTLAND Peterson expressed his views on various pertinent issues, charging that the Republican administration's tight money policy-high interest rates has caused a large decline in thisOctober 14, 1960 district's lumber and building industry. Payson Peterson publically challenged hisopponent, Jack Westland, to a TV debate before the general election. Peterson claimed that things arelooking good for his election. UNION BOARD A Cultured Atmosphere The first meeting of the VikingUnion Board, held Oct. 10, found only four returning members present, including Chairman MarshallBronson. Therefore, the main agenda of the meeting concerned the explanation of various committeesto the thirteen new members, to best determine their interests concerning placements on the board.Marshall Bronson The New Chairman Only two persons have been pre-chosen as committee chairmen:Stacy Tucker, Arts and Exhibits Committee and Dave Studebaker, Music Committee. The other sixcommittee heads will be chosen from among the new members. A new committee, Education andCultural Program Development, will work in close connection with the two previously mentionedcommittees to better integrate the Viking Union Building and provide a cultural atmosphere moreconducive to study.

College of Ghana by Jane Brand Known only to a few is amost interesting pro-essor who hides himself in the basement of Old Main as a member of theSociology-Anthropology Department. He is David Brokensha, a professor of sociology and socialadministration, from the University College of Ghana. Dr. Brokensha was born in South Africa, has spent five years in Tanganyika, and time in other African nations. The University is located eight miles fromthe capital city of Accra, and has a campus of five square miles. The student body numbers abaut 700,sixty of these Nigerian students, about six from the United States, and rest native Ghanaians. The sixNorth Americans arc exchange students who are spending their sophomore year there, receiving the same credits they would at home, but having the opportunity to live and study abroad. The facultyincludes one-fifth Ghanaian processors with some U.S. and British teachers, but the policy is to replacethe Westerners with Ghanaians. The classes are set up on an English system, as the college isaffiliated with the University of London. However, the school terms and the courses are very similar toour own. The University College of Ghana is a government allocated school, and a very elaborateone—$30,000,000 went into its making.

When you have theopportunity of meeting Jerry, whether socially or on business, you will meet a fellow without pretenseand with a quick wi t — a person who appreciates a good time but takes his offices and the dutiesentailed seriously. To use a corny cliche, he's a regular guy. As veep of the ASB, all social functions(mixers, movies, etc.) on the campus are directly or indirectly controlled by Jerry. He is the man to givethe word if the conviviality at Western doesn't suit you. In his words, "We want to vary our social program as much as possible and any students who have suggestions on anything they want done on thecampus, socially, should come and put a bug in our ear. Everybody cries about the monotony of theweekends after awhile, but very few people give us any constructive ideas." Jerry's vice-presidentialduties are to be broadened in the near future to make him a public relations man between downtownorganizations and the student T)ody. A "WESTERN" THEME Homecoming, being a highly socialfunction, is being handled (in a co-chairmen manner) by Jerry's position. Two questions came to mymind immediately when we started discussing homecoming; one was "Why the 'western' theme?" andnumber two (a standard form question "Do you think this homecoming will top previous ones?" Inanswer to the first, "We wanted a topic with which you can do all sorts of things — I mean, last year itwas a Roman theme and what did Romans do except ride around in chariots? And since the Easternteam is the Savages, a western theme brings to mind a large va- Pacje 8 Caton With Helper 'A fellowwithout pretense' riety of skits and displays." Answer number two, "That is the goal of all homecoming chairmen. Although the budget has been cut this year and the date of homecoming has been movedup two weeks, the committee seems to have a unity this time. Everybody is working like a dog; it reallyought to come through." Judging from the schedule Jerry ran down for me, homecoming and thepreparations connected with it will be a truly major project. The festivities begin with the KickoffAssembly on the 19 followed two days later by a folk and square dance . . . "experience unnecessary."On the 23, there will be the Presentation Assembly for the princess and queen candidates followed by election on the 24. The Coronation will take place on the evening of the 25. Everyone will converge on the Viking Union for a Sarsaparilla Social on the 26. This is a western type affair with refreshments served by the queen and princesses — "free." The big event of the 28 will be the Freshman Bonfire with theexpected invasion of the seniors into this "sacred" frosh tradition followed by the Homecoming Mixer inthe VUB. On Saturday morning of that week the alumni start arriving, with the parade beginning atWESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAN nco:i winding up at "Battersby Bog" for the game. After thegame there will be a smorgasbord type dinner on the campus, and then the climax ol the dayspreceding, the Homecoming Ball. BALL DIVIDED This year the Ball will be precedent- breaking inthat instead of being held in the Armory (which is being remodeled) it will be held in two separate spotson campus. The Viking Union will present the college dance band while the gym will offer the music ofSteve Lowery and his Orchestra. Introduction of the queen and her court and the awarded for skits, floats and window displays will be presented at both locations. My knowledge of the Homecoming Committee is sketchy, but if all the members have the drive and determination of Jerry Caton there is no doubt inmy mind that the WWC Homecoming of '60 "really ought to come through." KENNETH LYMAN DirectsHotel Paridiso Every play has its director, whether or not he happens to be as well known as EliaKazan — in accordance, since you probably know little or nothing about him, here is a chance tolearn something of the man to acclaim or hang-in-effigy at the success or failure of the forthcomingcampus production of Hotel Paridiso by Feydeau. This man is Dr. Kenneth C. Lyman, who comes toWestern from the University of Wisconsin. In his first year on the faculty here, Dr. Lyman teaches bothspeech and drama, and brings encouraging words for the more retiring or inexperienced dramaticaspirants . . . "I want to make a point that there is no closed dramatic organization— any one may tryout. We welcome students from all classes: freshman, sophomore, junior and senior." Continuing, heimpressed the fact that the dramatics department will receive gladly "those with no experiencewhatsoever." Giving a thumbnail sketch of October 14, I960 ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1960 October 14 - Page 9 ---------- Hotel Paridiso, the matter-of-fact director describes it as a "bedroom farce" — a knock down, drag out French play set in the early 1900s. "It involves married people and their affairs on the side," Dr. Lymancommented. The three act play has a very large cast, which in the second act ends up in its entirety in a disreputable hotel and is then carried off by the police. The whole third act is then aimed solely atclearing up the resultant mess. Besides Hotel Paridiso, Dr. Lyman will be director of the winterquarter production of The Skin of Our Teeth by Thornton Wilder. FACULTY SPEAKS 'A More Cordialand Informal Relationship' The Faculty Speaks series, so popular last year, is heing continued this Fallwith three of Western's faculty commenting on their "Philosophy of Life." Dr. Whitte-more spokeyesterday, and Dr. Her-bold will speak next Thursday at 3 p.m. in the coffee shop lounge of the VUB.Lyle Sellards, student minister of UCCF which sponsors the series, is striving for "a more cordial andinformal relationship between faculty and students." The other speaker scheduled for Fall quarter isDr. Hammer on Oct. 27. Winter Quarter will see the advent of a new topic, "How I See the Student."In the spring Sellards plans to have visiting professors from neighboring colleges speak on some of thecontemporary issues. AWS CONFERENCE To Encourage Interest "The Coed and Her Campus" will bethe theme for the AWS conference scheduled for October 15. Lynn En-gelson and Carol Schamehorn,distressed over the lack of group communication among Western's women students, are planning aseries of afternoon sessions to discuss common goals, campus attitudes and student problems.Featuring a guest speaker, the all-day meeting is hoped to encourage co-ed interest in studentactivities and encourage mutual understanding among women's organizations.

Page 9 ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1960 October 14 - Page 10 ---------- WESTERN FOOTBALL Second Class, or Representative Team? by Roger Myers What does a footballcoach with an 0 and 4 record in his first year as head coach at a new school have to say? JamesLounsberry, Viking mentor, said plenty, ranging from an analysis of this year's squad to objectives andneeds in the field of athletics. Lounsberry's stand is that athletics are an important part of our society. Our health is just as important as our scientific knowledge. For this reason he believes that,"athletes are just as important as good scientists. Being a scientist takes a great amount of skill," hegoes on, "being an athlete takes just as much." Along this line he points out, "if they (students, facultyand alumni) wish athletics to be an integral segment of the school, as it is of society, more money isneeded. If they don't wish this, but do wish to remain a second class school athletically, don't criticizethose not responsible." Money to carry out the physical program is just one small part of the totalpicture. Money must be used to recruit good players. By this he doesn't mean payments of money oranything underhanded. All that would be necessary would be money to meet what is legally OK'd by theconference and what most other schools give to athletes. As a case in point, Lounsberry pointed outfive ballplayers that were set to come to school up here, but went to UPS because of a better financial set-up. LOST EARNING POWER Lounsberry stated his idea of a workable scholarship program: "Weshould be able to give the student some help on his fees plus a job that he could work at to earn hisbeard and room. Critics immediately decry the idea of helping an athlete with his fees," Lounsberry points out. "However, the fact remains that the iootball players lose three weeks of the summer coming backearly for practice. During this time, while other students are making money to pay their fees, they havelost their earning power and are essentially three weeks' wages behind the non-football playingstudent." Given a workable plan like this Lounsberry firmly believes that in a couple of years "Westerncan start fielding representative teams. Western, now the third largest school in the state, is growingrapidly in enrollment. Lounsberry points out that this does not necessarily mean an increase in footballplayers. In fifteen years of coaching he has had only one player who was not recruited, help himextensively. As he pointed out, this year the ASB is not giving out any football scholarships. "Ethically,they said they can't," stated Lounsberry, "but I don't see the difference in ASB fees and gate receiptssince they're all thrown into the same pot." As he continued he brought up the fact that athletics areimportant also as public relations and unless some revision in the money allotted to athletics is madewe are going to be left behind. Coach Lounsberry "more scholarships" A MILD UNDERSTATEMENTOn the subject of this year's team, the coach smiled and said, "that's somewhat of a mildunderstatement," when this reporter suggested that perhaps the season had not yet been a success asfar as victories go. Eager to discuss the team, Lounsberry laid most of the blame on the offensiveblocking. The lack of fundamentals has hurt. Also some of the older, experienced players are notdoing the job. "In many cases it is not their fault, but again the lack of fundamentals," Lounsberrystated. As far as the rest of the season goes, the coach plans some changes. One is to replace olderplayers who are not doing the job with younger players who hold promise for the future. This will free -the older players from half their job and allow them to play either offense or defense and keep themfresher. Individually, our personnel in many cases is good. "Ron Ladines is as good a halfback as thereis in the conference," stated L o u n s b e r r y. "Steve Hansen is a good passer, better in somerespects than Spurlock who leads the nation." Lounsberry also is high on the promise of severalfreshmen who will be counted on next year. Specifically he named Neil Sherbakoff, Myles Phipps, AlLima and Rich Hartley. My final question dealt with the spirit on the club, even after losing four games. Lounsberry said the 'guys' were wonderful and never let down. "For the first time many of them are being extended. Winning and knocking the other fellow down is a challenge to them." The players, on the other hand say, "he makes us want to win, not for ourselves, but because he tells us we can and wefeel we're letting him down when we don't." RUGBY Western's Rugby Club opened their 1960-61season on a high note last week as they trounced the Vancouver Barbarians 24 to 3 at the BritishColumbia field. Led by player-coach Al Mathieson and former football star Sam Martin, the local squad was never headed as they scored almost at will. Longest run of the contest was by another formerWestern footballer, Denny Sheppard, who rambled 60 yards for what he thought was a try (like atouchdown in football), only to discover he'd stopped two yards short of the goal. Bill Hutsinpillar was the leading scorer of the contest, picking up eight points, all on kicks. This week the ruggers host theVancouver Wanderers as Shuksan playfield.

WesternWashington College's 1960 Viking eleven is no exception. Coach Jim Lounsberry's gridsters havedropped their first four games this season. Working from a quick-hitting split-T offense this year, the Viks are experiencing the changeover from the multiple offenses seen by Viking supporters for the pastfour years. Starting with this season's opener, an 8-0 loss to UBC, the Vikings have shown improvementin some phase of play in each game. Opening game mistakes, partially from running the split-T for the first time in game situations, probably contributed to the Viking defeat more than anything. However,since that encounter, Western has worked hard to correct mistakes and strengthen their weaknesses. Last weekend against the nationally ranked Whit-worth Pirates, the Viking offense made some headway across the goal line. Leroy Fuller and Ron Ladines ran over Western's first two TD's of the season.Against the Bearcats of Willamette University, the lack of Western depth hurt the Vikings in the latestages of the game. A REBUILDING SEASON Thus, this can be described as somewhat of a rebuildingseason for Lounsberry's Vikings. No one dislikes a losing season more than Lounsberry, but shouldthe future years at WWC be winning ones, this season of hard-knocks and dismal defeats will have paidoff. The key to the future lies in this year's Viking undergraduates. Lounsberry has several promisingfreshmen and sophomores along wih many experienced juniors who will return next year to spark theVik eleven. Notable is the quarterback spot. Doug Ringenbach and Vance Spang-ler, both getting theirshare of intercepted passes and big losses behind the line this year, will return for the '61 campaign.The halfbacks, led by Ladines and Roger Schmidt— Kris Jacobson, Fred Shull, Jim Jean, Mike Herron,Chuck Lindberg and Jerry Joyce — and the fullbacks, Ken Burton, Fuller and the potentially block-busting Pete Kempf, will make a solid, experienced WWC backfield in the future. Defender Siggs "Hewill be missed" Lounsberry will miss linemen Mike McVay, Leland Wolf, Jerry Beringer, Fred West andRoland Siggs next year, but will see an abundance of experienced, hungry linemen returning next fall.Approximately twenty-odd squadmen will be back for the coming 1961 season. VIKINGS WILL WINNevertheless, the present season is not over. Those fans who have been watching the Vikings inpractice sessions have noticed an increase in team spirit. The team WANTS to win. They are sickof losing, of making mistakes and of having the breaks against them. With five games remaining,Western could still have a respectable season; with the noticeable improvements shown thus far,this is not an impossibility. The Vikings will win this year and will continue to build for the future at thesame time. VIKS DROP 4th IN ROW Western's winless Vikings bowed to bad breaks and a disasterous first period as they dropped a 35 to 13 game to the Whitworth Pirates. Early in the second quarter theViks looked as if they might upset the nation's number 10 ranked team, but a pass interception broketheir backs. Down 21 to 0 at the end of the first quarter, the Viks tallied twice on a four yard plunge byfreshman, Leroy Fuller, and a 63 yard scamper by junior halfback, Ron Ladines. Ladines wasinstrumental in setting up the first touchdown also, as he intercepted a Denny Spulock pass andreturned it 17 yards to the 10 yard line. Other standouts were Roger Schmidt and Bob Plotts. Schmidt intercepted 3 Whitworth aerials, while Plotts snagged 5 passes for 45 yards to up his team lead in thatdepartment. Even though they were handed their fourth straight loss the Viks continued to showimprovement. This week Western travels to Ta-coma to take on the PLU Knights. Formerly calledGladiators, the Lutheran school will be fighting to break a cellar tie they have with the Viks. The Luteswill be led by Bruce Alexander, senior halfback and Bob Bottemiller, pass catching end. Off comparativegame scores the Lutes would have to be ranked as favorites. They edged the UBC Thun-derbirds 19 to14 while the Viks came off the short end of an 8 to 0 score against the same team. The Viks, however,have come a long way since then and should give the Knights a tough game even on their home grass.One encouraging note was the return to the practice field of Mike McVay, letterman tackle. McVay,idled last week by a knee injury could help shore up the line if he is able to go. BASKETBALL DribblersStart Monday Head basketball coach Jack Hubbard issued the call for all varsity and junior varsityaspirants to sign up with him by Monday, October 17 between 9 and 10 o'clock.

Gragg, Hunt, Hoppe Retire at Quarters End{ Thomas F. Hunt, associate professor ofgeography, is retiring after 37 years of service to WWC as an instructor in the social studies. Mr. Huntmade ' an imporant contribution to the teaching of the state with his chapter in the textbook,"Geography of the Pacific Northwest," which is still in use throughout the state. Hunt's most recentcontribution was to the Freeman magazine of last December when he wrote for a symposium dealing with "The Failure of American Education." Edward J. Arntzen, chairman of the Social Studies department,said today, "A significant part of Mr; Hunt's teaching at WWC has been his generous allotment of timeto conference with students in his classes." Mr. Hunt's plans for the future will be announced at a laterdate. "I am really looking forward to this time in my life," said Miss Georgia Gragg. 'It will be a life goingon, doing things that I've never had time to -do." Since Miss Gragg came to Western, 32 years ago,there have been four presidents, Dr. George Nash, Dr. Dwight B. Waldo, C. H. Fisher, and Dr. W. W.Haggard. She has been very- active in alumni affairs and contributed greatly to their association as wellas devoting much time to the Community Chest. "Looking back is fine, at times like the 50th anniversary of the college, but most of us need to look forward and go on to the future," she explained. . "I read avery fine statement the other day which represents my philosophy," she said. "The past is cancelled checks, the present is cash, and the future is promissory notes." "I am not interested in what. is behind me, but in what is around the corner," explained Victor H. Hoppe, retiring head of the WWC speechand" drama departments. Letters, one from a state justice, have begun to come in from all over the state since Hoppe announced his resignation, but, as he explained,. "I am not retiring, just changing,professions." Looking ahead, Hoppe says he is entering a-new profession, that of writing—not, asrumored, that of raising chinchillas. He is completing work on the first of three planned books. Hoppe,who holds decrees from Denison and Northwestern universities, has been the power behind seventy-five student productions here, including the recent "Life With Father" and "Merchant of Venice." ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1952 May 23 - Page 2 ---------- Letterstothe^ Editor Editor of the Collegian: As faculty representatives on the exchange assembly trip,;we feel that there are three comments we should like to make: 1. Caliber of performance was very high.Nothing but complimentary remarks was heard from CWCE students and faculty. We played to apacked house." 2. Billie Reposa, Dick Wahl, and Larry Wilson are to be commended on their fine job oforganization of both trip and program. 3. And this is the main point we have to make: The facultyrepresentatives were just along for the ride. There was nothing approaching a "disciplinary" problemand the student sthemselves assumed all responsibilities. It was a pleasure tc accompanythem.—Patricia Hieber, Herbert C. Taylor.

Convenient Terms Muller Aspbnd 1«4 E. Hotly American Man Chained Slave; Female On Ivory Pedestal Gazing through theback issues of the Collegian I came upon an unusual ad in the April 25 issue. It was a rather large adwhich announced to the world that this person had a one-half carat diamond engagement ring for sale. To me there was a note of bitterness in the notation that the ring had never been worn. Has the ritualof proposal come to the point where a moment can send crashing into dust the dreams of a month, or ayear, or perhaps even years. Must the proposal come in a hushed voice as if a slave were asking for aboon? Must the male come humbly on his knees to the female and beg her to accept the jeweled band?A band which, I may add, he probably signed away half his life to purchase. The female American mindhas come to have a quirk in it. They seem to enjoy torturing. the poor male. They have put themselveson ivory pedestals from which they descend only when carried in a pine $6x. They stand on this pedestal and rule the world as their whims direct. Etiquette demands that the male protect the female from realand imagined dangers. They rule and yet they seem to serve. Even the acceptance of the band does not give the male any assurance. For, before the addition of the second band she may return the first and seek other more alluring prey. Yet the laws of the United States are such that if the female seeksgreener pastures she may return both bands and again begin t he hunt and the stalking. Tradition haschained us and we are not free. We are slaves to the female and that nebulous institution called L-O-V-E. What is it? A weapon or a disguise for the rulers? —Jim Simon. WHITE HOUSE mHRKET FORFOOD . . .

The three men who are representing WWC are Roger Stearns/Wayne Swenson andFred Carbonatto.

By ROGER GROVDAHL Last Tuesday and Wednesday a near record number of Western voters went to the polls and elected their leaders fornext year. Ray Cohrs was elected president in a landslide over Norm Richardson and Al Evans. ReySundal also pulled a good percentage of votes in winning the vice-presidential race. Roland Saylor andDave Gay won the race for the two positions open on the Board of*——— ~ Control. Bob Bollman,election chairman, was in part responsible for the near-record vote. He stated, "I think there was awonderful turnout. The candidates did a very thorough job of campaigning. In general I think everyone dida very good job and cooperated terrifically. I would especially like to thank Esther Gib-* boms, whohelped with the elections, and Dr. Howard Critchfield, faculty adviser on the election board." Out of the nearly 1200 possible voters at Western, 676 voted. This is compared to 500 in the primaries this year.Percentage-wise it is 56% an increase of 14%. Cohrs took a tremendous total of 411 votes to leadRichardson who was next with 140. Third in line was Al Evans with 67 votes. Breakdown of the vice-presidential race was similar. Rey Sundal polled 390 votes followed far back by Ivan Hickenbottom with125. Jim Simon was third with 93 counters. Board of Control election was a very tight, interesting racewith three candidates grouped near the top. Roland Saylor topped the pack with 298 votes. Gay followed with 281. These two will step in to fill the two Board vacancies. Closely following Gay was Bob Dunlapwith 252 counters. Bill Johnson and Larry Renner were grouped closely together at the bottom with159 and 153 votes? respectively. Margaret Salisbury received two write-in votes. After learning of thevictories, Cohrs and Sundal made statements concerning the school year of 1954- 55. Cohrs expressedthe desire to help the coHege during hfa time m office. He said, "I hope that I shall be able to provemyself worthy of the generous support of Western's student body. One approaches the task withhumility and with the hope that the best interests and wishes of the students and the college may beadvanced. In order to guide student affairs wisely, I shall appreciate any suggestions and crtiicisms fromthe student body. I shall attempt to serve Western with dignity and fortitude. Sundal expressed a similardesire. Rey stated, "I would like to sincerely thank the people who supported me in the recentelections. I am honored that so many people have confidence in my abilities and shall do my best tofulfill the duties of your vice-president. I am certain that I shall enjoy working with Ray Cohrs and theBOC next year." Even with the terrific turnouts at the polls we had this time, It is not as good as it couldand should have been. It is a .step in the right direction, however. If succeeding committees take heed of this election and excellent candidates with sound backing offer good platforms and novel campaigns,the voting percentage should go up even higher than 56 percent. Schaub To Give Organ Recital DavidSchaub, organist at WWC, will present his second organ recital Sunday afternoon, March 7, at 4 p. m.in the auditorium. The organist will be assisted by the college string orchestra under the direction ofDr. Frank D'Andrea, head of the music department. BALANCED PROGRAM The program for the recitalis balanced between modern and traditional compositions. The first section includes Handel's"Concerto for Organ," opus 4 No. 5; Bach's Coral Preludes, "Lord Jesus Christ, With Us Abide," and"Christ, Our Savior"; "Fugue in G Major," by Bach; "Fantasy in F Minor," by Mozart; and "Suite for String Orchestra," by Bach. Schaub will play "Sonata III" for organ by Paul Hindemith, a composition in18th century contrapuntal style but with 20th centry harmonic idiom. Three modern pieces by George.Frederick McKay, will be included in the recital. They are "Rondolet," "Arietta Piacevole" and "JoyfulMarch." "Pastorale" by Roger Ducasse and the second movement from Leo Sowerby's "Symphony in GMajor" for the organ will conclude the program. The 5/4 meter in this composition gives it particularrhythmic interest. Ferris Reminds WWC Students of Pre-Registration Registrar Donald A. Ferrisreminds all students that they must pre-register for the spring quarter by Friday, March 12. Graduates, seniors, juniors and sophomores may pre-register any time, and freshmen may do so any time afterTuesday, March 9. Counselors are opening, their offices extra hours during the pre-registration. Hours are listed on office adviser's doors and in the registrar's office. Ferris urges all students to pre-registeras soon as possible to avoid last minute delays and switches in class schedules. ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1954 March 5 - Page 2 ---------- Audience's Immature Behavior Censured All amateur theatrical productions operate under a particularlyhorrifying hazard. This hazard is not that the production may appear amateurish, but rather, that theaudience will be so immature as to react childishly when professionalacting is. not, forthcoming. Suchwas the case during last Saturday's performance of the Winter quarter play, "Liliom." ~ • gt;'.•"-.,.Courtesy Lacking The tittering, the laughing, and the juvenile remarks passed loudly in the audienceduring Liliom's death scene (a scene admittedly not up to the level of Eva Le Galienne^and JosephSchild-kraut) displayed, quite openly, the lack of good taste'vandf courtesy commonly ascribed to highschool students and, younger college students. .'•-•,- The particularly amazing fact is:This;immature behavior was displayed by so-called "adult"' persons from off-campus, as much as, if notmore than, by college students. Abuse Intolerable Western's student need not be subjected to suchabuses. Re-currance of the nauseating display of immaturity must be met with positive action.Suggestions will be made in a later editorial. The College Scene.. . by Dunlap Let's start out this weekwith a short-short story. Once, long ago (about 44 hours ago) there was a fellow at a college calledWestern. Name was Joe. Joe Student, boy Knucklehead. He led a sessile life in the science department(or the PE dept. or the Engl. dept. or any of the many departments at WWC.) He rarely reared his headabove the current of his own little area of concentration to view the activities or shenanigans of those* •• around him. His first love was Protozoan Ciliata. In the PE department Joe would have beenentranced by aroma of "pure" wool socks or something of that nature. NOSE BURIED One day theyhad an election at WWC. Presidential yet! Did old J.S. tear himself out of his rut and go to the campaign assembly? No! Did he decide on popularity or ability? No! No! No! to all questions. Joe Student sat onhis haunches and fiddled with his Poriferi, his Indian clubs, or buried his nose into a pregnant volumeof Chaucer. There were 520 "Joe" and "Jane" Students who didn't think that it was necessary to cast aballot. What sort of mental fog are they immersed in? Are these people with us? Inattention togovernment on national scale has led to the downfall of many governments by Red infiltration in ourtime. Here at college we should be cognizant of this. Government should be foremost— rankeddirectly alongside of academic activities. But, it is not? DID YOU GO? Those of you who read this know whether you went to the polls last Tuesday or Wednesday. What's your excuse if you didn't go? And tothe first one that says, "I thought that the candidates were not worth voting for." I say, "Look, Joe, thefuV ing was open to all." Well, how about that? » * • Loungeology wasn't so sharp last week. Theplace was invaded by a horde of Politum Americanum stu-dentum. The jukebox was almost drowned out by the roar of orating politicians. Frankly, in this case, I prefer the jukebox. The lounge custodial staffgave up sweeping out and just shoveled. The political debris was THAT thick. Hey, fellows! What fatalattraction does Liberace have, for our Western variety of girls? Don't say that he has none, becausethe TV is all but obscured by oggling females on Wednesday night at 8:30. What is it? Whatever itis—however efficient as a female attraction it is—I don't want it. • * * * There! That's it. I'll bet you thought that I'd say something nasty about that stupid, noisy jukebox. Didn't you? WWCollegianPage 2 Friday, March 5, 1954 fkeside Chat I was recently asked by several students - for my opinion on how efficiently the BOC has operated thus far this year. Because of a recent article in the Collegian this question has been in the minds of many students who are interested in student government and Ibelieve the question merits an answer. As chairman of the BOC I have fortunately been in a position toobserve the board in action, possibly more than anyone else in college. This experience, I feel,qualifies me to answer the question. First of all, it should be understood that I, as president, havevery little, if any, voice in the decisions that are made by the BOC. As a non-voting member of the BOC my responsibility is mainly that of chairman or moderator. Now then, when it comes to the way theboard operates, to be sure, it does not operate as efficiently as it would if only one man made it up.Remember that there are fifteen people that comprise the board— fifteen individuals, all exercising theirrights. Inevitably there is going to be a lot of haggling and debate. That is the democratic.process. Doyou want to do away with that? I know your answer is NO! On the whole, considering that the board ismade up of so many people, the record of accomplishments is remarkable. Do you think they work anyfaster in Olympia or Washington? (To say nothing of Puerto Rico.) / . We do our best. We try to befair. If we blunder, we are only too happy to have your criticism. Feel free to make it. We welcome it!From my point of view, democracy, first, last—and always. HENRY HOWE, ASB President. CollegeStudents Should Be Adult Drivers, But Are They? By STAFF REPORTER It is understandable that highschool students should be inconsiderate and poor drivers. Although some pepole here at Western say that the college student is by nature immature, I say that he should be mature enough to drive like, asane citizen. His "squirrel" days should all be behind. This is not the case. There ARE some studentswho consistently violate traffic regulators. The impression made by bad college drivers reflects on thewhole college. Wednesday night a motorcycle was seen to roar up Oak street and come to a screeching halt in front that? First: the sidewalk was the route of travel. Second: the operator was young, althoughnot a college student, and anyone seeing such stupid actions would assume that this "chowder-head"was a WWC student. There is no direct control on outsiders, such as this fellow, but his friends, andrelative, who are members of the student body should realize that it reflects adversely on the College.Worse than this is the "guy" that drives without due regard for life and limb—his or someone else's.Fifty miles per hour up Garden street is a fairly good clip—on that we probably all agree.

What's wrong with;student at WWC—a student whose face and license number have been identified by severalwitnesses—has been seen driving at about that rate on High street. He's also been seen running stopsigns in his blue grey '41 Ford coupe. We, the Governor of Washington, the Administration, theAssociated Student body, and the staff of the WWCollegian, think that the time has come for ALLcollege students to re-evaluate their driving techniques. Remember this when you next get that urge to step down on the acelerator, although there may be no police in sight. College students shouldn'thave to be watched, but in the interest of safety for all, you may be. Appointment of Navigator andKlipsun editors for next year became the big item on the Board agenda this week. Ordinarily the Klipsuneditor is appointed toward the end of Spring quarter but a change in the by-laws provides that the Klipsuneditor shall be appointed in the sixth week of Winter quarter. This change was made at the request of the pres-* month. SPRING INFORMAL PLANNED One hundred dollars was granted to the Pep commiteefor a Spring Sports Informal which they hope will become in the future the big dance of the Springquarter. Witt this dance they hope to give boost to spring sports which in pasl years have received littleor no student support.

This will enable the new editor a chance to get on-the- spot training before theresponsibility falls on her shoulders. Na-dine Schilling received the nod from the Board as the personto sit in the driver's seat next year. The only other applicant, unfortunately, was Ruth Ann Britt. I sayunfortunately because I believe there should have been more interest and therefore more applicantsfor the post as important as editing the annual. COLLINS APPOINTED Tom Collins received the job ofediting the Navigator for next year. Although not as important to most students it is of importance to allincoming freshmen. It helps them to "navigate" on Western's campus. One hundred seventy-five dollarswas given to a member of the IA department to enable him to make a trip to Los Angeles to representWestern at an IA conference being held there later this month. Twenty-five dollars was also granted toACE so that they may send five representatives from Western to an educators conference being heldin Wenatchee this Tromitis'HitsWWC Students Saturday By KATHY TROUTNER "That old Black Magic has me in its spell." According to people in love this has nothing to do with the Junior Prom. ^ But to usfellow Westernites, Black Magic has cast a certain spell upon us, alien to love.

The Viks applied the pressure at the start of the game and failed to release it until the finalgun, which was something UBC was not counting on. Heretofore, Western has managed to play ballwtth the best teams for the first, half, but in the final half they haven't been able to hit the side of thegym. The Viks faced a severe height deficit but they offset this the only way they could: with speed. The rangy Thunderbirds could not keep up the pace set by the smaller Vikings and their inability to do sowas the biggest single factor contributing to a Western win. VIK DEFENSE GOOD The defcasive work of Coach McDonald's men should not be overlooked. They put on a scrappy defense that kept UBCfrom taking any easy shots and helped hold their shooting percentage down to 20%. The reboundingwork pf Knigge, Stone and Crooks was outstanding as they repeatedly stole the ball off thebackboards and tied up the Thunderbird rebounders. Western shot only 26% but fortunately it wasgood enough to out-shoot the Birds from the floor.

Western fans did not leave disappointed as the Viks managed to squeeze out a slim 54-47 win. GAME TIGHT The Vikings werenot content with one league victory and seventh place, but they raised their sights for two wins and a tiefor sixth spot. It was not an easy task as they faced a much wiser and more determined team than theymet the previous night. The Thunderbirds hung on stubbornly each point of the way and contested thelead until the final minutes. Percentage wise the Viking offense looked better than it did Fridaynight as they employed" the same tactics as they used the night before and outran the Birds with theirfirehorse type of basketball.

The score of the game, 47-42, was high of all the eight teamsentered. Surprising it was for those who came to the hotel late and found their beds short-sheeted. Thequestion is, who were the culprits and how was room entrance gained? Just for clarification—allsuspicions have been laid aside concerning Lois Chudek's staggering into the hotel late Saturdaynight. An ear infection caused a loss of equilibrium and planted her in the hospital for a few days.After lights-out Saturday night quite an argument occurred between Pat Ingram and Emmy Lewis as to whether the hotel window had steam on it or if it was covered with dirt. After a long session of debatewith Pat insisting it was dirt, Emmy could take no more. She went to the window, ran her hand over it,calmly washed her hands in the washbowl and then as she climbed back into bed grudgingly grunted . .. "dirt." Those of you wno know Sally King will be interested in learning that she was at UBC playing onthe Central Washington team. How. much of a traitor can one person fplay against Western's women'steam.

Marquis went through another quarterundefeated. Although they won twenty-eight games, a very enviable record in anyone's book. Duringlast week's play in league A the champions won an exhibition game from Bornsteins, 45-32. Born-steinsfinished in the cellar in the City league A. High for the winners was Gard with 15 points and Nelson had10 points to lead the losers. On February 24 last quarters league A champions, the Gym Rats, cameup with their best game of the quarter as they easily beat the Flying Canucks 57-19. Bowsher was highfor the winners with 26 points, and contributing to the Gym Bats cause was steady Spud Hfiller with 12points. On February 25 the big game of the quarter was played and once again Marquis beat Daniels.However Daniels got closer to the champions than any other team in any of the twenty-eight games. The final score was 33-30. The score at half-time was 15-13 in favor of the champs and they pulled away quickly in the third period and opened up an 11 point lead. Daniels put on the pressure in the fourthquarter and closed the gap to two points with less than 30 seconds to go. Daniels, however, just couldnot get that equalizer and when Larry Olson fouled Kenny Olson in the last second of play that wound it up for the season. Ken "Ole" Olson sank one of the two foul shots and put the game away for good. High men in the game were Card (13) for Marquis, and Fotheringham (11) for Daniels. Other games In league A last week were: Alpiners picking up a forfeit from the Tigers and the Steam Rollers forfeiting to theGlutchers. The team from MRH is the new league B champion. Last quarter the champ was Marquis. Inlast week's game MRH picked up a forfeit from Larsons' Farces to easily cop the crown. The Phantom Five came close to tieing MRH for the title but dropped their last game 40-24 to Huntoon. They hadpreviously beaten Hospice n 30-26 to get within striking distance of the top but they could not beatHuntoon when the chips were down. In the playoff game last Monday, Marquis had to come frombehind to beat the B league champs, 47-39. MRH led at the half 22-17. As the end of the second halfneared the league A champs started to put the pressure on and MRH could do nothing to stop them.Once again, as has been the case all ^through the twenty-eight games Marquis has played, Jim Gardwas the big factor and leader of the team. Gard scored 15 points in this game, but 13 of them came inthe last half. Gates dropped in 12 points to aid the Marquis cause. High for the losers was Duncan with12 points. In summing up the season, it is not hard to see why Marquis is ouch an outstanding team.Every member is a potential scorer, nowhere else is team play so well illustrated and to top it all offthey win when the chips are down. The starting five consists of Gard, Thomas, Hub-ber, Halleck, andGates. These five functioned like a well oiled machine most of the time and led by wee Jim Gard theywere hard to beat at all times. Jim would be this writer's choice for the most valuable player of thequarter in the men's intramural basketball league.

Kiwanis Brings in Watson Singers By RUTH ANN BRITT TheBellingham Kiwanis club presented the Beth Watson Singers Tuesday evening, March 2, at the WWCauditorium. Music on the program was varied, from popular to classical, although the majority of theselections were semi-classical. ATMOSPHERE CORDIAL Each member of the ensemble was soloistsometime during the evening. This made an impression on me as I have been to many concertswhere only one or two members of the group have been featured. The whole atmosphere createdby the singers seemed informal. I think this was created by the manner in which the program waspresented and the manner in which it was sung. For example, in some of the songs which were of theromantic nature, the women would flirt with the men. Very effective, I might add! WATSONFEATURED Featured on the program was Beth Watson, dramatic soprano. She was accompanied byHerbert Reeder at the console. Reeder also played a few numbers on the console. With music suchas "Make Believe," "That's An Irish Lullaby," "Thine Alone," and selections from "Brigadoon," you canbe sure that the audience enjoyed the concert. Those who have been "crabbing" about the A L seriescertainly should have gone to the concert Tuesday. They would have no objections I'm sure! AWSMembers Attend Meet At Seattle U.

Itcertainly is quiet around here with all the band members gone. Five people can really make adifference. We know they must be having a good time though (no hours). Letter To Editor DearEditor: I would like to raise one small voice of thanks to the Artist and Lecture Series committee forbringing to Western a fine group of musicians and authors during the winter quarter. Manystudents, including most of the candidates for student body offices, have made loud criticisms, few ofwhich were constructive. The general complaint, however, is that the artists are all too "long-hair," toointellectual and not at all entertaining. It seems the point in need of clarification is this: Is the A LSeries intended to entertain or enlighten? Perhaps for those who believe it should entertain we couldbring to our stage such stars as Johnny Ray and Lily St. Cyr. Perhaps the BOC could recommendthat Lit. 205 replace Shakespeare with Pogo and that the faculty produce a floor-shoW at Edens hallevery night to make dinner more pleasant. How long will it be before the students here recognizeWestern as a place to learn rather than a three-ring circus? KENNETH PAULL. GIFTS For . . .

Kappa Delta Pi Hears Talk "Touring Europe," was the topic of PatSutherland's talk to the college chapter of Kappa Delta Pi in the Edens hall club room Monday night.Miss Sutherland drew from her experiences gained in the summer of 1949 when she had joined theStudent International Organization's tour of the continent. The trip began from New York harbor, whereMiss Sutherland and the other members of the group were packed aboard the Greek ship "Neptunia"with Greeks and Italians who were trying to forget English and recall their native tongues. LISBONFIRST Lisbon, Portugal, was the first city she visited. Before the two months of traveling through eightcountries were over she had visited many of the more famous cities of Europe, including Paris, London,Lyon, Florence, Venice, and Cologne. Miss Sutherland was greatly impressed by the painting,"Winged Victory," the historical "Hall of Mirrors," the fading "Last Supper, and the pillars of the Romancivi lization which still stand and command respect in the heart of Rome today. At the completion ofthe whirlwind tour, which included transpor tation by train, bus, airplane, bicycle and tired feet, MissSutherland was overjoyed at seeing once again the Statue of Liberty in New York harbor and the culturethat is distinctly American. The talk was illustrated by color slides and followed by coffee and adiscussion period.

WWCoNegian Page 7 Friday, March 5, 1954 Fads 'n Fashions By GAY and FLOCKOI "Theguimpe" is a blouse of starch and charm and innocence. Whether it features pleated cotton batiste in avariety of colors or puffing sleeved, satin striped broadcloth, this cute little blouse is definitely somethingto look for. A white coat has always seemed to me to be an almost unattainable dream possession."Now, thanks to science and modern invention, it's as easy to own and wear as a cashmere sweater.Choose a wrap around, Chesterfield or a mere quick hug of a jacket in cashmere, Orion fleece or plainold white wool homespun. These fit nicely over a suit or cotton dresses or even longer ball dresses. Ifyou have the problem of too many underclothes and straps and things under your cottons on these warm spring and summer days that are approaching, here is your answer. A feminine little slip in whitecotton pelisse that doesn't need ironing after each washing.' Other attractions are: an extra low de-colletage for bare-top dresses, no straps and a specially designed "Hidden Treasure" bra. For Saturdayevenings at the Holiday this spring buy a new polished cotton sateen print. Shoulder baring, butterfly and candlelight dresses in numerous colors are really a sensation.

Theyare members of Dr. Manzer J. Griswold's sociology 251 class. (Editor's note: Last week Dr. Griswold'ssociology 251 class went through the Monroe reformatory to look at conditions there. A Collegian reporter was in the class and wrote the following interpretation of this trip.) By STAFF REPORTER The gateswung open, we were admitted, and then shut behind us with a very final clang. We had a shut-up feeling even with the knowledge that it was only for a few hours. How would it feel to enter those gates with theknowledge that a year or more will pass before he is once more a free agent. Is it a hopeless lostfeeling? Does anger and hatred rise up and enclose in its compass all of mankind? These and otherquestions assailed our minds. Does that short, fat man hate us? Do we represent to these men thesociety that has made them outcasts? Does that tall, thin man hate us? What did that young mando—steal a car—rob a grocery store— or a million and one other indiscretions which cause society toput him in here for a short or a long period of time. Did society ever think that maybe they were thecause of what he did? Perhaps because he did not finish high school he could not get a job. In want hewas forced to steal. Because he stole society banned him from their company. When he is releasedwill be so hate society that for the rest of his life his outlook will be so warped he will turn his back onsociety and live on what he can get from society without earning it. There were some whose incarceration taught them a lesson. But how many of these if the press of necessity becomes too great will again turn to obtaining subsistence and very survival from outside the law that "protects" society. These andmany other ruminations gave us cause to think as we were given a good inside look into Monroereformatory.

Show more1944_0630 ---------- WWCollegian - 1944 June 30 - Page 1 ---------- x.ook .... By WALT BAKEB THE FUTURE Others write about the future, so why not you and I? The fact is none of us know anything' about it, but it serves to place us on a common footing and to give us an equal opportunity to prophesy without the gift of prophecy. One favorite of prophecy is to ^predict what would have happened in the past had this or that taken place. Such prophets assure you, just as if they knew, that if some singular event such for instance as the Black Death or the Versailles treaty, had never been foisted upon the world by the permission of providence or the stupidity of men, the whole course of subsequent European history would have been different or, at least, we would not now be fighting World War II. • One reads and hears such statements, and lets them pass without controversy — tolerates them for what the are, somebodys guess. One doesn't take the trouble to point out that the events of history are never so nicely predictable. He doesn't demand a show of casual connection between what actually did not occur, but which might have occurred had the situation been otherwise. He doesn't demand it, because he knows it cannot be shown. • To' say that Johnny would have become an excellent musician had his teacher not died of the gout before, the fifth lesson is over, simplifies the case. It is granting too much to the teacher and too little to Johnny. It is far more difficult to prophesy about the future— For here; we are" not dealing with agents dead and gone who did one thing, when they might have happened had they acted differently. A Friend Says: In that vein, a well-read friend of mine, right here at Western Washington, claims that the postwar world will not belong to us who, while our men are fighting for us Over there, are working out plans for what is to come, but to the twelve million men in the services themselves when they get home. This is pure prophecy, for with full regard for my friend's learning, I say he is simply guessing. He can have no way of knowing what he says with certainty. He vrests his whole case, as he must, upon certain present indications, and then concludes a result. And it is just that element of inevitability that is always absent from the affairs of free men, which makes anthing like a prediction of what the are going to do at some future time, something unreliable, just anybody's guess.

Hood, assistant professor of music education in the University of Michigan and supervisor of music in Ann Arbor city schools, concluded her part in the Music Week program. , "Years ago," declared Miss Hood, "people were able to give more of their leisure time to enjoying music; whereas, now, theatres, dances and travel take up our spare moments." She suggested that people will learn to understand and appreciate music when they learn to devote, time to it as an end in itself rather than as a background to other activity. ' .''' Upped Enrollment Not Complete Although complete statistics are not available, enrollment for the summer session is expected to total over 300 students, according to information released M)y Dr.. W. W. Haggard. This number is greater than the enrollment last year at the same time. Complete infomation will not be available for some time. Various groups are entering the College for different conferences, workshops, short sessions, and institutes and it will be necessary to wait until registration for these affairs is closed. WWC STAMP SALES HIGH Students, faculty, and staff members purchased stamps and bonds totaling $32,282.25 for the year 1943 and 1944, according to information released by Dr. W. W. Haggard; This total also includes the sales in the Campus school. , Quiz Results Uphold Poll "What We Don't Know Is" Likely to Hurt Us," pertains to WWC as well as Jto the nation. This fact was revealed in tests given by Miss Nora B. Cummins, history instructor, to her spring quarter history 3 and her summer history 1 and history 129 classes. Hadley Cantril, Director of Public Opinion Research, Princeton university, in the New York Times article mentioned above said that Americans are not only self-centered but ill-informed on world affairs. Adults Differ The article stated that 27,000,000 United States adults do not know that the Japanese have taken the Philippines. Of the 57 WWC students taking the test prepared by Miss Cummins, 11 did not know that the Japanese control the Philippines. Two of our students had never heard or read about the Atlantic Charter, and 34 could not designate one provision of the Charter. The national survey showed that 54.000,000 Americans had never heard of the Atlantic Charter. Twelve of our students could not name one provision of the American Bill of Rights. Eight did not know that we have received reverse lend lease from Great Britain, and 27 did not know that a peace treaty is appoved by the President and a 2/3 majority of the senate. Twenty- six here did not know that the state governments decide who can vote in presidential elections, and 60,000,000 of the United States adults do not know who decides the (Continued on Page Three) Attention Graduates Students who expect to receive degrees or war emergency certificates in August are asked to check the list posted on., the main bulletin board for corrections of spelling, for omissions and for correctness of the paper they are to receive. Students now in school must make application for these degrees "and certificates before July 1 or pay a two dollar late fee. Many Complete Music Week People from all over the state as well as many regularly enrolled students audited the classes in curriculum problems and in music techniques and materials conducted by Marguerite Hood last week. In adidtion to these classes Miss Hood devoted one and one-half hours each day to work with groups from the workshop, helping to solve special problems. "Miss Hood's teaching had an inspirational quality," stated Miss Mira Booth music instructor with whom Miss Hood worked. "She made the classroom teacher believe that even with little or no preparation, he could still enrich the childrens musical experience," Miss Booth went on to say. Miss Hood fitted this conference in between her regular work as asr sistant professor of Music Education in the University of Michigan and supervisor of music in Ann Arbor city schools, and her special work with college and graduate classes at the National Music Camp at mterldcnen, Michigan.

Collegian staff members, echoing the sentiments of the College, extend a welcome to the County Superintendents and. to the edu-. cators, attending the annual conference. We hope you have enjoyed your visit, that you have had time to inspect the improvements and additions on our campus, that you . have renewed many . friendships, and' made new ones. And we'll be seeing you next summer. • • • Yesterday-saw the; opening of a conference on our Campus which was scheduled to aid each of us in the evaluation of individual and group teaching. This conference is headed; by prominent national and northwest educators, men and women who. are able to help us develop an overall view of the problems before us as teachers. Your • WWCollegian sincerely hopes each of you have at-' . tended as many of these sessions as possible. This conference was planned, not in order that these speakers could have the opportunity to travel to our fair city, but rather that we as students, yes, and as educators, would have the opportunity of hearing the sug-- gestions these people can give us so that we will be better able to evaluate "Education in War and Peace." However, we must remember that the prescribing of medicine by a physician can do the patient no good unless the directions are followed. So must we as teachers remember that evaluation does no good unless the prescription for improvement is followed. The article by Hadley Cantril, Director of Public Opinion Research, ." •, Princeton ' University, speaks of the part educators must play in getting the American public to crawl out of its shell and .view the world as a whole. Statistics obtained locally from Miss Cummins' classes would lead us to believe that we as educators i should make it our responsibility to educate ourselves so that in a few years these startling figures released by Mr. Cantril will be reduced to lesser numbers. We as a nation should not be so self-centered as to believe that the only things of importance to us are those things which immediately affect our security. It is our job , to educate people to be far-sighted "enough to vision the effect that; wol-ld conditions will !have on , ipur persbnal affairs. ; .; A good time was had by a l l . . at the clam-bake-oops, salmon bake at the Rocks. Dr. Bond, you are my favorite chef! Visitors on the campus: Taking time.off her camp work at Orcas, Iris Bowden was seen breezing through WWC halls.

Student Lounge Favorite Spot Newly decorated, the Student Lounge is open for use as a meeting place, and recreation room for all students of the college. Money for lounge furnishings was raised through student activities. • • • • : . - " •- f Dancers Delight Audience By WALT "Wars may come and wars may go. but art goes on forever!" Such ; a.quotation seems exceedingly apropos especially at the present time. Those of you who missed the performance of the modern dance group from Oregon State College last Tuesday evening, missed an impressive and entertaining fete. Miss Betty Lynd Thompson, director of the group and Physical director at Oregon State • College, led her fine, attractive dancers through a program of varied routines of modern dance. Novel Opening The opening dance was a greeting to the audience by Miss Thompson. The words danced, rather than being spoken, the audience was teased away from the traditional. The art of falling in the dance tempo was thoroughly displayed,- along with other dances including; three shades of bine, in which three separate dances were given; Blues in the Night, where the inborn rhythm of the negro finds expression in the zest, and spirit of lilting, moaning, blues; intensity, an interesting and original dance by OSC co-ed Hazel' Travers. Dancer Madlyn Stearns, gave out with a dance ..tabbed, "Patterned after a Woman's Mind;" Director Betty Thompson - soloed well in Transient Moods; "Siiboney," was expertly rendered by the entire company. ..The finale was a nov- ROBLE —AIR STEP-GIRL SCOUT- -BUSTER BROWN -BOY SCOUT SPELLMAN'S BUSTER BROWN SHOE STORE 105 West Holly FRED DUNCAN, Mgr.

The news of today was presented in the future fashion of a world beyond tomorrow television. Betty Wows 'Em Betty Ericson, 19 year old Oregon state sophomore from California, wowed the mixed audience of students, returning teachers and townspeople with her soloed renditions of the Hawaiian Hula and war dances. Miss Helen Poling of Oregon State was accompanist. In a backstage interview four noisy reporters found Miss Thompson and her troupe very pleasant company. (Ed. note—perhaps that explains why the interview took so long-—copy was two days late.) "We t are in love with Bellingham and enjoyed dancing before such~a grand audience," stated the group's smiling leader. Last Tuesday's performance was the opening gun of a two-weeks tour of the Northwest and Canada. After their Canadian invasion of Army and Navy camps, the group will entertain for the Navy and Marine personnel at the Bremerton navy yard. The wind-up of -this* summer's tour will be before the summer session students at Central Washington college at EUerisburg. The summertime occupation of the dancers are the following: Miss Hazel Travers, a student from Vancouver, B. C, will teach Physical Education this summer. Ann Coony, senior student in education; will return to Oregon State to complete her studies. Jo Hec- WELCOME; Summer Students!

From The Files . . . . . . five years ago in the WWCol- Jegian—June 30, 1939: Hikers set out for Skyline ridge, 6,000 feet up Mt. Baker, under the leadership of Loye McGee. The price of 75c for transportation and coffee was considered by the student body to be too high. The U of W hoopsters downed our Viking quintet by a score- of 31 to 46. . . . ten years ago in the WWCollegian— June 30, 1934: "Mae West" was the guest of honor at the Gay Nineties initiation party at the dormitory. Bustles and rustles were the fashion of the hour. At this time 600 enrolled for the summer session. Out of a class of 120 graduates, 29 received their degrees. A student's outlook on summer school: . / ' . • - - Summer's cool, students are busy, Summer school students are busy Summer school students are dusy. tori junior, majoring in education, plans to toil for Uncle Sam in a defense plant. Madlyn Stearns will continue to assist Miss Thompson at Oregon State. Betty Ericson will work in California. The college is looking, forward to another visit from the modern dancers in the near future. Need Refreshments? EAT TASTY SUNDAES DELICIOUS MILKSHAKES ' At -'. HILLVIEW 1824 Cornwall.

No, but it is something far worse, the closing of the College Inn, which hit a Jot of sudentsvbelow the belt. (Most of them could afford it below the belt.) ' • - ' ' " • • Mrs. L. L. Squire, or Ma, as she was better known, decided the weather too nice, the work too hard, and the help too few to keep going. Now the tnn is closed, and you can bet that WWC will surely miss Mrs. Squire this summer. ' • Ma has been a pal to all the boys to hit this campus in the past ten years. She has served meals to fellows late from long basketball turnouts, or early .in the morning to some who had to go to work. She has made it possible for those at the college to get a snack during any hour of the day. s » . • Only last spring she was routed out of bed at 7:30 one Sunday morning. Her regular opening time was 9:00, but a cruise had been scheduled for that time and the gang wanted to eat breakfast. She opened shop with a smile and made her usual wise cracks. Her jolly bright disposition seemed to infest every drowsy drudge in the Inn. • ' • ' / Not only will Mrs. Squire herself be missed, but the carefree air that characterizes meals at the chow house will be greatly missed. This corner wants to wish Ma a restful vacation and lots of good times back east. However, she had better hurry back, because there is going to be a lot of ravenous men around this institution next iall. There has been a great deal of agitation among the male students to start an intramural softball league. Now with a little cooperation from the women we may be able to, play a little ball this summer. The games probably will have to be played in the afternoon or evening, and the teams will be composed of both students and faculty members. Remember, the more the merrier or messier. • If you should be looking for some top athletic performers on the campus, you could start and finish with the faculty. Sam Carver is one of the finest-badminton players in thi part of the country, and any one wanting a lesson on 'how to be a good loser when playing with a birdie' ought to report to Carver pronto. Don Bushell is rated as a better than fair tennis player, ask yours truly. I still have a hole in my racket fom trying to j-eturn one of his forehand drives. • Doc Cederstrom is quite a trundler, and in last year's bowling league he sure gave the pin boys a work out. Mr. Kibbe wouli give any of the young bucks in school a bad time in a bicycle race. Matter of fact, I'd give you good odds that he could ride almost anybody in school into the .dust. Doc Bond has forgotten more about mountain climbing than most men, or school" teachers, learn in a life time. • •' POT SHOTS Wonder how "Cab" Campbell likes it up there at the Winchester forest lookout. Ill bet he is getting in that hiking he was looking forward to all. year.—Art Clark, former student body prexy, and now attending the Oregon University medical school at Portland, has been roaming around 'the campus the last week.—Cliff Johnson and Mark Knoll are football umps during the fall of the year. Now I know all umps are blind.—Roy Wark is really looking forward to playing basketball next year. Hope he has the shooting eye along with him when he comes back.—That all state high school, all star baseball game at Seattle recently was one of the finest sports promoting ideas to come out in a decade... lis too bad the state educational system couldn't have provided something like.this for baseball players for years previously. more about nation v. (Continued from Page One) qualifications for voting. WWC Studies Error The New York Times magazine article stated that more than half of. the; adult population does not know that the United States never belonged to the League of Nations. Five WWC students were not able to correctly answer this question. Thirty of the 57 of our students did not know what a reciprocal trade treaty is, and 33 did hot know what a price subsidy is. Statistics for the national poll were gathered by the Gallup surveys, which represent a fairly accurate cross-section of the American people. When these surveyors asked-the public to name the United Nations, 57,000,000 failed to men- ' • • -Jr.' tion Canada, 70,000,000 forgot Norway, and 58,000,000 didn't mention Brazil. ';'•'•' :. gt;.; Our ^school's poll showed that three did hot know that China belonged -to the United Nations, that one person did- not name Great Britain, and one neglected to mention the United States. Cummins Tests Miss: Cummins asked her History 1 and 129 classes, when she gave the last test Friday ,N "What event tl takes place in Chicago Monday, June 26?" Of the 16 persons in that class, 10 did not know that the Republican national convention was scheduled to open that date. Hadley Cantril in his New York Times Article said " ...The baffling question is how to get people, sufficiently interested in information to pay attention to it. Educators, editors, public servants and policy makers will have to put their heads together for the comnion good. It is an obligation which, no , one interested j(n democratic government can/safelyneglect." Excursion Scheduled Sgt. Norman Brigli|, of the Arctic Search Rescue at Presgue lsl$ air field/former student at WWC won the annual Dorchester 10 mile handicap road race Sunday, June 4. ' • Sgt. Norman Bright, who started his running at WWC as a miler for the track team under the direction of Sam Carver, won the annual Dorchester 10-mile* handicap road race Sunday, June 4 at Dorchester, Mass. Sgt. Bright, fomerly from Chehalis, is now with the Air Transport Command here. He is a member of the Arctic Search and Rescue Squadron at Presque Isle air field. Stanford Student . ^ • _; After three years at WWC,. Sgt. Bright / was a student at Stanford University where he competed for the San Francisco Olympic Club for five years. His(best time was set in the two mile event with a time of 9 minutes and two seconds. Sgt. Bright defeated the former champion of the 1500 meter run, Tuigi Beccali of Italy, when he accompanied the American Track team to France in 1935 to compete in a triangular meet with France and Italy. Holds Records After returning to America, Sgt. Bright broke many of the Pacific Coast records including two of the oldest. In 1937 he defeated the world record holder, Glenn Cunningham, in the Call Bulletin run, Los Angeles, California. Noisy Iron Works Scene of Trip Last Tuesday afternoon a large group of students and teachers visited the Foundry Division of the Bellingham Iron Works Incorporated in Bellingham. Under the- - supervision of Hiss Elizabeth Hopper, chairman of summer quarter recreation trips, the group left the campus at 4:00 p. m. They were guided through the plant by the'foundry foreman? who explained the process and the workings of their government contracts.

Librarians from British Columbia, Canada, and the states of Washington, Oregon, Idaho and Montana gathered at the annual affair. With the general theme "Working for Victory, Planning for Peace," the library representatives heard discussions dealing with the present and future problems of all types of-libraries including the county, city, college, instiution, reference, lending and children's libraries. "What will the Postwar Expect Prom the Library," "Librarians Plan for the Future," "Postwar Aims in Library Service," "Publicity for the Reference Department," "Techniques in County Library Work," and "What Does the Small Library Need for its Postwar Service," are samples of the subject titles discussed at the 1944 PNLA conference. Poetry Provided by WWC Alumni Originally written by Mrs. Frances Gladwin as the concluding speech of a panel discussion before a Delta Kappa Gamma group, the WWCollegian staff feels that this poem expresses the sentiments of the Conference being held on the Campus. Mrs. Gladwin taught the ninth grade in the Campus school Winter and spring quarters in 1929, and earned her degree from here in 1932. Previous to entering WWC she attended Cornell University, New York. Mrs. Gladwin is attending WWC for the ,, first series of refresher courses.

Tickets may be procured at the recreation headquarters room 116 for $1.00. New Music Teacher To Replace Sooth , According to an announcement by President W. W. Haggard, Frances Simas will replace Mira Booth as supervisor of student teaching of music in the" campus school and will take over Miss Booth's music methods classes for the. coming school year. "Miss Booth tentatively plans to use this time off to work towards her doctorate "at the University of Southern California. Miss Simas has been director of music and art for Northern Montana College at Havre for past ten years. She also supervised music in the Havre public schools for two years just previous to this time. Following two years work at EWC, Miss Simas went on to obtain her Bachelor's degree in education at the University of Washington and her M. A. at the Teacher's college at Columbia University. She also attended the University of California. An interesting sidelight on Miss Simas is the fact that she was at one time music instructor at Bellingham'High School. She is a personal friend of Miss Marguerite V. Hood, who has been in charge of music week here for opening week. Aye, Aye, Ma'am Departing today for Northampton. Mass., Miss Virginia Hawke, Physical Education instructor, leaves behind her many friends, and takes with her many good wishes. Education For Freedom '•"''. Frances F. Gladwin. Right use freedom,—this our chosen goal. Since liberty must rest on self-control Our work is clear,—to teach the listening youth Each implication of that world-old truth.— For liberty, not license, is the aim: Without the rules he cannot play Life's game. Integrity of thought, of word, of deed, Stands foremost of the rules all players need: Then self-reliance, will to face each task: Co-operaton, quick to give and ask: The rule of tolerance, that power to see The right of each to differ or agree. The rules of kindness, oto, he must learn: The rule of industry that he.may earn: The rute of thrift that good may not be lost:, Of caution,—that he pay no too high cost For things, self-chosen, he Would wresVfrom life: The mile of courage, strength to Bear the strife. The Golden Rule he needs must keep in view, To do to others as he'd, have them do To him and his. These rules mark out the way, The only one, that all may win who play. For mightier than all force is power of mind That consciously is true, wise, brave, and kind. Our part is to equip,—to offer each The weapons needed,-—place within his reach The means by which to win his-spurs,—to hold In his own hands the Holy Grail of gold. An War, in peace, true freedom is the goal ; Thai evermore musi base on self-control, v Workshoppers Underway v By JESSIE PLAMONDON The 1944 Curriculum Workshop is off to' a good start. We are now well-acquainted, .having been subjected to memory tests involving names and addresses. We are twenty-six in number, we come from various sections of the state and have varied interests. Our major work groups include Primary, Intemediate and Junior High, each with its staff member. We boast four elementary school principals, eight primary teachers, four intermediate and six Junior High. Others are specializing in work on math-, eiriatics, industrial arts, music and visual aids, each with its own staff member. We have two luncheons a week at which time there are stunts by the various groups and recreational singing. There is a staff planning meeting once a week, led- by Dr. Paul Grim, director tof training. We have all been thrilled with Miss Marguerite Hood's music conference jUst concluded and have learned much rom Dr. Ralph W. Tyler's stimulating addresses this week. Hawke Wears Navy Blues Racing along at her usual breakneck speed, Virginia Hawke; women's physical education instructor, had your reporter quite out of breath by the time she had revealed all the facts about her new assignment with the WAVES. On her way to Smith College at Northhampton, Massachusetts', to begin her training, Miss Hawke left today to drive there by Way of Colorado Springs. Here, she will leave her passenger, Mrs. G. C. Squires, and will proceed to the home of her parents in Vincennes," Indiana Tor a short visit. Her next stop will be Utica, (it's near Columbus) Ohio. "I hope to continue with the same sort of work I have been doing here," she admitted, "but that's up to the people in charge." Upon the completion of three months' satisfactory work, Miss Hawke will become eligible for the rating of an ensign in the WAVES. Hike To Natural Drydocks Liked The eight-mile hike to the Nat-ual Dry Docks under the leadership of Miss Lillian George was enjoyed last Saturday by eighteen enthusi-iastic students. A half hour on the beach at low tide and a big star fish with five fingers added interest to the enjoyable trip.... £ a ws From Houses If It's on the Market, We^ll £et it For You FRESH MERCHANDISE Is Our Hobby HIGHLAND CREAMERY 615 HIGH STREET Postoffice Substation Ph. 182 EDENS HALL Mother Goose was the special guest of a party held Wednesday evening in the Edens Hall Blue room. With her came her company of Peter Piper, Mary Quite Contrary, Simple Simon, Old Mother Hubbard, Georgia Porgie, Little Tommy Tucker, and many other notables. Special features of the program included a modern dance number by Jack, Irene McPherson; and Jill, Mary Ellen Nelson; Little Miss Muffett, Eileen Johnson; and Spider, Vigh Lambert. Quiz Kids took honors not only by reciting, but by very dramatic representations of incidents taken from lives of the well-known Queen of Hearts, Peter Pumpkin Eater, Solomon Grundy, and the Ten O'clock Scholar. Before- being put into bed, Mother Goose's children were fed on milk and doughnuts. HOSPICE TID-BITS: The climax of this little story or apogee of the whole affair was reached in room 4 -on the second deck of Hospice Inn where a small, but well articulated group of men (or boys) uttered such statements as: "Is that a fact?" "well, heaven forbid!" But these individuals (the male population of Western Washington) throwing caution to the winds, and careening down stairs with reckless and astounding abandon, applied their * Westinghouse brakes and demanded an explanation from the smiling, congenial, and warm hearted housemother, Mrs. George Stearns. To grow philosophic and to skim off the top layer of muddled emotions, we will come to the point. It seems that because of the housing shortage to this area ye Olde Hospice (best house on the Hill) has extended its warm hand of friendship, and has taken under its protective wing four charming members of the fairer sex. Highlight of the week was a strawberry party given by Mr. and Mrs. Stearns immediately after the assembly last Tuesday evening. Besides the regular house members other guests included Mr. and Mrs. Gilmore of Bellingham, Arthur Clarke, medical student at Oregon University and former Western Washington student prexy. Later in the evening the group was pleasantly surprised by the appearance of the Oregon State college modern dance group led by Miss Betty Lund. Thompson, director of Women's' Physical Education at Oregon State. The group enjoyed servings of strawberries, and other goodies. After proper introductions, Miss Helen Poling-, modern dance group accompanist, played the latest tunes at the piano, while ev-' eryone sang. Miss Madlyn Stearns, assistant instructor at O.S.C., wanted to kidnap Rex, the house mascot. Betty Erfckson, the hula expert, toured the campus with BARBER SHOP NATIONAL BEAUTY SHOP 1306 Cornwall A v. Ph. 1165 Hal Moe. Jo Hector, Hazel Trav-ers, the Canadian girl, „, and Ann Cooney gave their all, via their vocal chords, to entertain the audience. Two former house members who recently graduated from the Navy V-12 at Dickinson State Teachers college in North Dakota, appeared for short visits. Tommy Baker, of Marietta, and Bob Ludwick, of Everett. Both men are to leave soon for _k new assignments. Baker will attend Northwestern University for a short time and will continue his studies at Harvard University in Cambridge, Mass. He .will be commissioned in December. Ludwick will continue at Ashbury college in New York, and also will receive the gold braid in December:. RAGAN'S RAMBLINGS Home for an extra-long weekend (it started on Thursday), Eler-ine Shannon spent this short vacation picking strawberries. Doesn't she know all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy? Great news! Sometime within the next 19 months, M: L. Robinson expects Jimmy home. Any time how, Lucy, any time. ," All the Raganites are shades of pale pink nowadays. Problem: The sun's* never out at the time the girls are. Latest gossip on the campus ;has it that: • Don Neal, former WWC football hero, will soon be tossing the. verbal football on the ether waves from KXL, a Portland radio station. According to Neal ,the studio is. a 10,000-watt station, the largest, in. Portland. Visiting on the campus last week prior to leaving for WAVE basic training was Joy Hatt, former Klipsuh manager. Joy taught last year in the Vancouver schools. At home with her mother is Mrs. Bryce Ells^the former Betty Sbli-bakke. Betty was a prominent member of the WWCollegian staff while at WWC.

Albert Boo-man, faculty member at Lynden, was in charge of arrangements for the meet. Judges were all from the University of Washington, and included A. L. Pranzke, who is in charge of debating at the University; Lester McCreery, Wade Knisley, and student judge Ann Marinkos. Forty were in attendance, including both debaters and their advisers and coaches. They were taken on a tour of the campus in the morning, and the rounds of debate began at ten. The debaters were served lunch in the Edens hall cafeteria, and were shown all points of interest on the campus. Victor H. Hoppe, of the speech department, was host to the various schools in attendance. The new style type of debate was used. This type is a discussion debate in which the various speakers show different approaches to the solution of the problem. The subject was development and use of power in the Northwest. Talented Cartoonist Assembly ©uest Next Tuesday Morn Next Tuesday's assembly will feature Charles A. Wells, journalist, cartoonist and world traveler. His program will consist of a cartooning demonstration. As an artist of genuine ability with years of training and experience in both Europe and America, his drawings have appeared regularly in scores of newspapers and periodicals. Thus, he affords one of the few instances where men of professional experience and standing in the field of art have adopted their talent to public performance. Wells began his career as a sports artist covering many major athletic events throughout the country. This was followed by a period of editorial work, writing, and drawing editorial cartoons. Then came assignments which carried him abroad, and during the past years' he has traveled frequently in Europe and Asia. He appeared before a WWC assembly a few years.ago Edens Barn Dance Helps Meet Quota Dancing in an atmosphere of haystacks, lanterns, garden tools and scarecrows, some 70 couples contributed their bit to the World Student Service Fund when they attended the Edens hall tolo dance last Friday night. "Cow Cow Boogie" was the theme, and approximately $75.00 of Edens' one hundred dollar quota was raised by the ticket committee. Ethel Martinson and Jean^Knutsen were co-chairmen in charge of ticket sales. The dance was held in the Edens hall dining room and records provided the dance music. Co-chairmen in charge of the event were Margaret Rutledge and Catherine Anderson. Stag Party Held A sta^ party in honor of Dr. W. W. Haggard, who is preparing to leave on a trip to the East, was held last Tuesday evening at 7:00 in the club room of Edens hall. Those present at the party were: school trustees Verne Branigan and J. Pemberton, also Irving E. Miller, L. A. Kibbe and all men of the faculty. The program consisted of a musical by a faculty quartet, a tall story telling contest and an appropriate reading by Victor H.

Are you interested in the reopening of . the Men's Lounge, room No. 112 opposite the Registrar's Office? This room formerly served as a place where men, for the few minutes between classes, relaxed; reviewed notes for that quiz; caught a few winks; or "beat their gums" with the boys. Many find that the Student Lounge is too noisy for complete relaxation ( t h a t guy, Boogie Woogie, monopolizes the conversation). Women* students have their club room, why not the men? How about a little action, Norsemen? Beattie Praised For Successful Concert Douglas Beattie, tall, bass baritone, gave a repeat performance, under the auspices of the Civic Music Association, Tuesday evening at the Bellingham high school aud-itonuin.~"^.-—--•••• - - Beattie presented his selections in an interesting and unusual fashion, acquainting his audience with the story behind each song and singing them in a very amusing style. Beattie studied in Italy under Aristide Ancceschi, and Gino Puc-cetti, and made his debut in Genoa at the Teatro Ligure in 'II Trova-tore'. He was immediately engaged and gave twelve performances in as many nights. Beattie returned to his native California in 1935 and was engaged for a concert performance of Aida in the Hollywood Bowl and later sang wtih the San Francisco Symphony. In 1938 he was invited to join the Metropolitan Opera. Beattie has a basso voice which critics have pronounced "one of the finest to be heard." His selections for the evening included an aria from the Marriage of Figaro, sung in its native language and then in English. He introduced several songs of the "Lonesome Folks" among them "Sourwood Mountain," "DeBoll Weevil," and "My Lulu." Beattie was accompanied by Rex Uhl. wwx Vol. XLIV — No. 17 Western Washington College, Bellingham, Washington Friday, February 8, 1946. Pres. Haggard Travels East —Cut Courtesy Bellingham Herald DR. W. W. HAGGARD Dr. W. W. Haggard, president of WWC, is leaving Wednesday, February 13, for Wilkes, Barre, Pennsylvania, where he will marry Miss Rachel Peters, February 26. The noon wedding will take place at the Lutheran church with members of the family and intimate friends present. On the trip east, Dr. Haggard will be accompanied by President R. J. Maaske of Eastern Ore'gon College of Education. Both men will stop for a short time in Lewiston, Idaho, to inspect the Lewiston Normal School, which has made application for fourth year acceditation. If approved by the accrediting committee of the American Association of Teacher's Colleges of which Dr. Haggard is a member, the school will grant B. A. degrees.

College Featured Every Saturday morning at 11 o'clock a 15 minute broadcast over KVOS is dedicated to the college. This program is "Wahl's Social Letter," and its announcers are Mrs. Georgia Hale and Norma Clark. Items for this broadcast are taken from the WWCollegian, and each week day current happenings at WWC are broadcast also. Winter's Calendar Features Manca Blind Date Dance "Some time in March" the blind date dance, sponsored by the Manca club, will be held. Last week it was tentatively announced t h a t the event would take place some time in February. The club's president, Al Cochran, makes this statement: "Publicity is what we need to put this dance over. We want people to be looking forward to this affair, to be talking about it, to be wondering 'what kind of a dish will I be stuck with?' or 'will I draw a man or a mouse?' Life is a gamble any way you look at it. Who knows—maybe you will roll a. natural this time and have a chance to convoy that girl of your dreams. Well, you can dream, can't you?" Anyone who has not already done so is asked to leave the following data with the Dean of Women or Dr. Kuder . . . his or her name, age, height, and marital status. This is very important as plans for the dance cannot be completed without this information. "What do you think of the idea of auctioning off dates with the 20 Prom princess • candidates to raise money for the World Student Service Fund?" So goes the question, and here goes the explanation. The idea was brought up at the last WSSF drive meeting and is now under consideration. The dates with these girls would be for some definite night; for example, Friday, February 15. At the auction men could bid as high as they wanted for a date with an individual girl, and all money taken in would go to the WSSF. Of course right now nobody knows who these candidates are, and .some ideas might change. But that's another story. , Some answers? Some opinions? Well, here goes . . . S a y s Marilyn Shelton, who smiles over the count- Photogenic Lovelies Listed As Men Vote; Top Ten To Be Chosen In Assembly Saint Patrick Theme Prevails; Invitations Being Extended Publication Princess Candidates Chosen By Ballot; Prom Plans Progress Toward Completion As Committees Approach Goal After solemn deliberation and eager appraisal, the men of WWC cast their ballots for the girls they felt were the most photogenic on the campus last Tuesday. Girls who rate highest are the following: Catherine Anderson, sophomore from Bremerton; Shirley Brokaw, freshman from Saint Joseph, Missouri; Gloria Carey, freshman from Bellingham; Georgia Driver, senior from Woodland; Joanne Fisher, freshman from Bellingham; Louise Holbrook, freshman from Bellingham; and Barbara Huffman, freshman from Belfair. Men's Smoker Set Tonight The male population of WWC tonight, will hold its first get-together in the form of a Faculty-Student Smoker in the big gymnasium at eight o'clock tonight. A group of about 200 men are expected to attend with 180 students and about 20 faculty members. There will be entertainment provided by both male and female students and refreshments will be served. The theme for the evening will be informality and it is hoped that all men who by some mistake did not receive invitations, will attend, for all are welcome. Albert Van Aver, chairman for the affair, is.in hopes that this Smoker will become ah annual affair for the men of WWC. Frosh Assembly Shows Talent The freshman class s u r p r i s ed WWC last Tuesday with what was one of the most enjoyable and well organized student assemblies . given this season. Bob Sleem skillfully handled his job as master of ceremonies In introducing the delightful show of talent from the frosh. Again let's applaud . . . The trio— Pat, Mary Anne,. and Lee—Mary Ellen Francis for her reading, Shirley Hunt for her skit, and Joan Fisher and her brother Harold for their fine performances. Also a hand to Berdell Smith and Fat Frombly, Marie Pequette, and last but definetely not least—the "band". The committee in charge of the program, headed by Carl Linden, did a superb job of "finding" and organizing the talent. Dr. Merle Kuder, freshmen class adviser, states that he is gratified with the interest shown in the assembly and his hopes are for bigger and better shows in the future. Drive Rolls Onward The third week of the WSSF drive saw Daniels hall in first place. The goal of one dollar per person was exceeded as it reached 110 per cent. ---------- WWCollegian - 1946 February 8 - Page 2 ---------- Western Washington College of Education, Bellingham, Washington Friday, February 8, 1946 oditokiau THANKS/ KIDS! In our editorials we always like to give credit where credit is due insofar as committee work is con-, cerned. And this week a great big hand is due to the members of the various committees that worked on the Edens hall dance "Cow Cow Boogie." About Wednesday we began to worry. No one had come to us with the remark that "this wouldn't work out," they couldn't get that for the decorations, or they were too busy, we'd have to get somebody else to work on the committee. That just didn't happen . . . which is a trifle unusual. Friday afternoon everyone showed up at the appointed time and place and did her work quickly and smoothly. And we might add that a wonderful job was done by several girls who would not even be in town to. attend the dance. All those girls deserve gardenias, orchids, AND rosebuds . . . they did a grand job. Thanks! • • OFF SCHEDULE? How about our yearly calendar? This year fall quarter didn't begin until October first, and all the way through the year we've been a week late. We got our extra week in Christmas vacation after New Year's instead of before the holidays. This made it difficult for many to get jobs for the seasonal rush. A little extra money comes in handy around that time, too. The same thing is going to apply to the closing of school spring quarter. The quarter ends on June 14. This is quite late, and it would be a definite advantage to job-seekers if they could be out of school the first week in June. All in all, we seem to be just a little bit behind all the way around. it is all right for the rest of this year, but we think its a good idea to keep in mind these things when the schedule is being made for the school year 1946-47. • • LIGHT UP!

In The Shade of the Mort-u-ary Is The Spirit of WWC . . . Dear Editor: This younger generation is disgusting. Being a graduate, almost, of WWC, I feel qualified to add my two cents to the state of affairs above the so-called blue waters. If anyone wants to shoot me . . . okay . . . but I must get this off my chest! During the years when the world was at war, we, who were making the wheels of education go round, were struggling to maintain the high standards of our institution. We took pride in working on committees, being chairman of this social activity, president of that club, and in other words, carrying an overload of outside activities but loving every minute of it. Ours was a woman's world and just so we wouldn't forget that men, whatever they are, had once traipsed our campuses' trodden walks, we were packed into busses and taken to Whidbey . . . the sailor's paradise. I t wasn't as if we were sure of dancing, but at least we didn't lose all faith in mankind, and there was always more than one girl holding up the wall. Our rec nights were fun, too! Sometimes the Coast Guard honored us with its presence. We turned out in grand style for the basketball games,' and although we didn't have a band because of the lack of students, (not interest) we yelled so hard that the infirmary was overflowing for several days afterwards. And what's this about WRA's six-man basketball team! Why, even in our darkest hours WRA was never disgraced by having but six faithful members to uphold the club's dignity! Are there so many men up there now that sports hold no interest? Whatever's the trouble, kids, get out of your rut. You'll be in one soon enough. (I know.) Put some life into WWC. It's a swell college and one to be proud of. We who are now engaged in the teaching profession don't want to see our alma mater go to ruin after we pulled it through the crisis. If we could have fun and school spirit during a critical period in the history of the world, then certainly you who are now carrying on our unfinished task can surely do as much . . . if not more!

Do you know why we are so branded? During a recent basketball game we ripped aside our thin veneer of culture. We BOOED! It has always been my opinion that sportsmanship confined itself to those actively participating in any athletic contest. Most broad-minded peopie agree that shady little incidents like premeditated slugging, tripping, or other bodily contacts with intent to mutliate one's opponent a r e n o t considered as "cricket". Nor do real sportsmen tolerate sly methods employed by some coaches to slip advice to their hard-pressed charges via the water boy or by the less subtle tricks of hand signalling and other physical gestures. I agree that the foregoing items are sportsmanship at its lowest ebb and its crudest form. But why pick on -the sideline rooter? He comes to the game only because he is interested in one of the teams or individuals participating. He's there to lend moral support to his favorite. He wants his team to win but win fairly. He craves a close contest. But above all else he demands conscientious, impartial refereeing. Needless to say if all these conditions are fullfilled the average bleacher fan will devote his vocal outbursts to cheers and yells of encouragement to his favorite. .

Well, 'leave' us not be discouraged, for as the old saying goes, "Where there's life there's hope" and as everyone should know the Viking speed-boys still have plenty of life left. Believe me chillun when those 'nearly invincible' Savages come bouncing down here next week they're reaUy going to have to battle to clip the Viks as they did in Cheney last week. Not taking anything away from the Savages, but according to all reports drifting this way the Vitamin liners weren't quite up to par last week-end and if they can get the ball rolling on their own floor we should really see some thrilling games when the two power-houses clash again. And then there was the Cougar game . . . If this man Bishop would have stuck* to his ttwn-'county-college, everything would have been just dandy. But no! He went wandering down to Washington State and look what happens. Ouch! 26 points in a little more than half a game. The Vitamin kids gave the big school a good run for their money in the first half, trailing only by three points, 24 to 21; but in the second half the wear and tear of the grueling struggles with Cheney began to tell and the Vikings slipped behind. All in all it was a pretty tough trip, but as we said before there are other days a-comin' and we can count on Lappy's boys to be right in there pitching for all they're worth, no matter what happens. • • • IDLE CHATTER: Our boy Jack Graham came through in fine style on the road trip . . . The lanky sub ran up 25 points in the Cheney series and topped it off with 13 .against Washington State for a total which exceeded any of the regulars . . . We gather from the Herald that the hapless Pacific Lutheran Lutes have finally pulled down a conference ball game, squeezing out Seattle College 23 to 21 last week . . . Our reporter, Jim Gilroy, who traveled with the team last week, claims that Cheney could keep right up with any team in the Northern Division of the coast league. He says the Savages were the speediest team he has seen in action all year, and that includes the Washington State Cougars and the U. of W. Huskies. Roffler and Leifer, the two Eastern stars, seem to go together like Art Jeanne, Inc. . ' ' Captain Roy Wark has gone five games in a row without missing a free throw.

It seems that everything was running smoothly on the road to Cheney, everybody was thoroughly relaxed. ..Then suddenly Lappy spotted a poor little chick strolling nonchalantly down the road. "Farmer boy" Whitsell leaped from the car and after a valiant struggle. managed to persuade the stubborn fowl that he belonged in the car with the rest of-the boys. . _ . . . .. Well, as the story goes, the chickery soon wore his welcome sorta thin and the fellows decided it was time to pawn him off on some other sucker. Gayle and Lappy sauntered into a few butcher-shops and tried to get rid of their unhappy friend, but all to no avail. Nobody seemed to want the poor little fella. They finally ended up shoving it off on some bewildered fanner, who probably couldn't understand the boy's generosity. Viks Lose Thriller To Cougar Quint Dropping t h e i r third straight game, WWC's Vikings lost a hard-fought contest to the Washington State College Cougars on Monday. The final score was 67 to 49. Coach Jack Friel started his second stringers but rushed in his regulars when the Viks took an early 11 to 7 lead. The Cougars then pulled up to a 24 to 21 halftime lead. The second half was a nip and tuck battle until, with seven minutes to play and a' 47 to 44 lead, the Cougars began to pull away. Gayle Whitsell again led the Vikings with' 15 points while. Jack Graham and Captain Wark each garnered 13. Bishop and Hanson, State's two All-Americans, led the Cougars with 26 and 16 points, respectively. Coach Lappenbusch's new defensive strategy, that of checking far down court, frequently snarled up the Cougar's offense. Several times they failed to bring the ball up into the front court.

AL COCHRAN Savages Clip Viks* Scalp Running headlong into EWC's wingfooted Savages last Friday and Saturday night at Cheney, WWC's Winco title hopes were dealt a serious blow as they dropped both games to the eastern boys. Cheney took the first game, 66-55, and the second 70-47. In Friday's game the Vikings.took an early 4-0 lead over the Savages, with Gayle WWitselJ arid -Sia 'Van' Sinderen picking up the four points. Cheney put on the heat and forged ahead 8-6 after seven minutes of play. The score remained close the rest of the first half, the game being tied up several times. WWC started fast m the second half, Roy Wark potted a field goal to tie the game up again 29-29, and Jack Ross put the Viks in the lead a short time later by sinking a shot to make it 32-30. With Cheney temporarily on the run, the Vikings took quick advantage and.ran the score up to 38-33, before the Savages could recover their pace. Midway in the second half EWC broke loose again with Roffler and Glendenning racking up quick points on fast breaks, and pulled ahead again 49-40. Cheney maintained an 8 to 12 point lead for the remainder of the game, winning 66-55. Jack Graham, playing red hot ball, led the Viking scoring with 15 points, Gayle Whitsell followed with 10 points and Roy Wark netted 9. Gablehouse was high scorer for Cheney with 20 points, Leifer and Roffler followed with 14 each. Saturday night's game was nearly as hard fought as Friday's, WWC keeping within 4 to 6 points most of the first half. Halftime score stood at 30-26, Cheney leading. The V i k i n g s started strong in the second half, tying the score 30-30 in the first minute of play. . EWC broke the tie, and took the lead again 34-30. WWC fought hard to close the gap, • narrowing the margin down to one point, the score being 41-40 in Cheney's favor with about ten minutes left in the game. EWC's speedsters wore the Vikings down in the final ten minutes of the contest, and piled up their lead constantly to win the game with the final score of 70-47. Wark led the scoring for WWC with 11 points, Graham, Whitsell, and Van Sinderen following with 10 each. Leifer led for EWC with 19 points, Roffler totaled 14, and Sales hit for 11 points.

It's Big Lake Washington's contribution to tlie sports lovers of Western Washington, blonde Sid Van Sinderen, 6 feet and 4 inches of mighty fine center on the Viking quintet. After a little probing modest Sid finally started out with the story of his life. "Well. I was born in Big Lake in 1923," Sid began. "While very yuburig my folks moved to Bellingham and I went to Lowell grade school and Bellingham high school. After graduating from high school I came to Western Washington before joining the Marines." Sid enlisted in December of 1942. After his preliminary training he joined the 4th Division of the 24th Regiment which saw action on Saipan, Tinian, and Iwo Jima. He was awarded the Bronze Star and Purple Heart on Iwo Jima. "I think we should be able to pick up at least one of the games from Cheney next week even though they are the fastest team we've played all season," Sid related when quizzed on basketball. He also thinks the school should start baseball when spring arrives. Here is the part we like folks. Sid thinks that this school is about tops, even better than the U where-Sid took V-12 training for four months. Well, that's about all on a very good center and a swell guy, hero and. all. Hospice "A" proved a stumbling block for the league leading Collegians during Tuesday's kegling contest. The print shop quintet dropped one point to Hospice "A" which' allowed Manca "B" to over7 take the Collegians. Hoard and Lahti paced the Collegians with 309 and 302, respectively. Bailey and Maricle were high men for Hospice "A" with 293 each. Bushnell lost a point to a game Hospice "B" five, but managed to maintain second place in the league.

According to Coach Lappenbusch, if their holding tactics are up to. snuff, Bellingham's chances are good, "Lappy" says; "The Cheney players are fast "and accurate but our defense, when it is clicking, has' the reputation of foiling the best of plays. Washington State College learned to respect our system of close checking and ball-stealing when they were robbecf of the ball seven times during the last half of our game with them." "What I am worried about," continued Lappy, "is that the first contest will be one of these after the week-end affairs. Have you ever had that 'blue Monday' feeling? Everyone has. Here is my opinion on that: On Sundays one wakes up too late for breakfast and «ats only two meals thus upsetting his digestive system and causing that 'logey' feeling. Let's hope this does not happen this time.V We want and need to win both games." The Savages are now leading the Winco league which means that, if the Viking's "win; the former's hold on the title will be definitely precarious and the latter's hopes for a comeback in the pennant race will assume a brighter aspect.

Mr. early-to-bed Partlow was snowed, into taking over for one week, and one week only, so no moans, please. You only have to read this in one issue. Also our big dogs one and two (prexy and vice same Wally Wilson and Leonard Barnhill) resigned. Wally can't keep his studies' up to par, and still give the job the time it deserves. Barnhill says likewise, but he's in love and can't concentrate on anything else, any way. Bob Searl is in charge of meetings, until we elect new officers. There is a person living at our house who most of you have heard of, but few of you know. Let's take a line or two to introduce her to you. She's a big woman for the simple reason she has to be to hold her heart. She's adopted more boys in the last fifteen years than most people know. H some of you gals want some red hot addresses, just drop around, and she will fix you up, as she wrote to over 400 service men during the war. Besides being the possessor of a cute roguish grin, she can cook. If any of you want to meet a swell person, just drop in at 1020 High street and ask for a Daniels named Amber. Joe Angelo, my roommate, can't get over the fact that WWC studes have a Lounge where they can dance during the day. Why, when he went to school six years ago, they had to eat nails for breakfast, and study twenty-six hours a day to pass. Joe, by the way, is the coach at Mount Baker high school, and his team is tied for first place in the county race. All for now. • • EDENS HALL Ah, February . . . I love it. Healthy winds, president's birthdays, Valentines, and the clunisy clatter of skiers. Gee, but everyone started this month out with a big push—especially about ten husky fellows who enjoyed the beautiful scenery on the last ski trip from the stern of the bus— PUSHING. Oh well, what's 15 miles, huh, fellows? Specially when you get to ride the last one and a half with a cheering section encouraging you from the back of the snow-plow. • Speaking of skiers, I was amazed last night. I was calmly walking down the darkened hall (confidentially, I was dashing to my room before the assistant house mother caught me after "lights-out") and behold, there before me stood a huge monster, silhouetted agains the lighted fire-escape. I was taken aback—fearful of moving forward. I could distinguish no features of any human being at Edens. The head was huge and all fuzzy—the feet held boots of gigantic size. The body was mammoth— looming before me like a giant. I was terrified, so I stood shaking, pressing against the wall in horror. Cold sweat broke out on my face as it moved forward toward me—slowly, deliberately. Then just as I was gathering wind for a scream of terror it spoke—slow, questioning words uttered in a squeaky voice—"Do I look like a skier?" As my eyes became accustomed to the darkness, my monster was revealed before me as Shirley Hunt, all rigged up (at 11:00 at night) for a ski trip around the halls. The fuzzy head turned out to be a fur hood. Ah yes, never a dull moment. At this point I wish to inform Keith Keplinger that the person to whom he spoke at Edens hall Tuesday night in such unpredictable, indescribable language was none other than our assistant house mother. It seems that I started something last week by commenting Hot Dog in regards to Jimmy Mustard's name. It appears that the fellows on his ship, says Joy, have taken to his new name with relish . . . oh, brother! Kay Piro and Marge West did okay last Sunday with their blind dates. One was from Carolina and t'other was from Noo York. Seems that there was a good time had by all. The Navy was well represented at the dorm this week-end. Pat Loomis with Bert from Noo Orleans—Petie Peterson and Hap Whittler were doing okay with Bob and Strick—ahem—throwing snowballs at girls windows. (Have you noticed that crack—in the window I mean.) Quick scenes from dorm life find: Marion Johnson looking for a ski pole, Lois Craig sending Jay Lapp on errands, Marge Leonard with an officer, all the girls admiring Marilyn Shelton's new lounging pajamas, Pat Loomis waiting for her blind date, the cleaning ladies at the dorm picking up hay from the rug with fine-tooth comb, and Ruth Halverson having a birthday party at head table. Well," since February will be here for a whole month, I will sign off now until next week. HOSPICE INN Another week gone by and everyone has been rushing around to prepare for the house party. It is rumored that we are to have food! Music will be furnished by old pal "Nick." At a recent housemeeting it was decided that to raise their quota for the waSP, Hospice men would sell hot dogs and dixie cups at the two games next week. The house was nearly vacated when Jack Driver, Jack Graham, Hank Otterlei and Jim Gilroy left for the basketball trip, but they all arrived home safe and sound. • Well, as time rolls by, we must sign off . . . see you next week.

And down underneath is the loveliest nook Where the four leaf clovers grow." When Ella Higginson wrote these immortal words little did she realize that they would be made into the state song of Washington, and that this and many other poems of hers would make her live in the hearts of many for years to come, and especially in the hearts of the students who remember the tragic hiking trip made by college students in 1939 to Mount Baker from which so many did not return. She wrote her poem in memory of those who were lost. All of her poems were written within a stone's throw of WWC and yet there are so many who know little or nothing about her.
