H. Fisher Hopeful for Portion of Money From Federal Government $300,000 IS ASKED Part, of Building to be Constructed with Money The long-dreamed-of Physical Education building, may soon become a-reality. Although the full amount asked for probably will not be grant- •«1, aI part of the building will be erected as soon as possible. % "President C. H. Fisher requested $300,000 from the government for the purpose of erecting the building. Early in the week Mr. Fisher said that he did not expect that the school would receive more than $200,000 for the erection of the building. He expects the state to appropriate $150,000, and the federal government to give $50,000. Since the full amount will not be appropriated, only part of the building will be put up at this time. It will be completed later. Just how much of the building will be erected at this time has not been decided yet, but probably will be known soon. The building will be erected on the site of the present athletic field. • • '• • O —T-Rec- hour , This Afternoon John Christy, president of the Associated Students, announces that rec hour willjbe held this afternoon in the oig gymnasium btween 4:00 and 4:30.

Mr. Beardsley was an attorney in Seattle before going :S. to Washington, D.C., as an assist- 'aht United States Attorney General. It seems that he and some other • 'gentiemen were driving along the highway when a torrentl of water (later found to be an unusual flood) swept the car from the road and caused the passengers to seek refuge in airce. }'% Sensing the danger that his less ; ^hletic friends were in, Beardsley swam -to a somewhat distant f arm- £ house arid; secured a passable row-jSjjoafc Rowing back to the tree where l^the men were trapped, he piled vitibuein .into the,boat -and convinced \ |him»elf, them, Washington, and the l^iipjcfa to general that he had done ^proiid rescue act.

Addressing an audience of about eighty students and instructors, Miss Healey, a specialist in interior decoration, gave a demonstrated lecture in room 303 of the Art department yesterday afternoon at 3:15 o'clock. Miss Healey, who received her training in New York, first impressed upon her hearers the importance of the fundamentals of design, color balance, and drape. These, she said, are the four most necessary fundamentals, especially in relation to the solving of home decoration. Following the line of home improvement, Miss Healey referred to the necessity of "using simplicity as the keynote and employing vividness of color after simplicity. In order to emphasize the value of corect color combinations, Miss Healey used a color chart as an example. This chart included the main colors of red, yellow, blue, and green, and.the complementary colors. Its interesting feature was a dial which, when placed on a main color, pointed to its complementary colors, thus, as Miss Healey pointed out, making for speed and accuracy Miss Healey concluded by expressing the hope that she had left her audience with some new ideas, and reiterating the need of a proper knowledge of the fundamentals of design, especially in the profession of interior decoration. o ;—- School Songs Sung In First Assembly Fowler Secures Position in East Former Head of English Department Goes to New Britain BusheH Leads So^gs; Pres. Fisher Extends Welcome At eleven o'clock last Tuesday the entire student body met in the auditorium for the first assembly. The school songs were lustily sung, first by the freshmen alone, and then by everyone. Mr; Donald Bushell, music instructor, directed the singing, with .Christine AJbers at the piano. President C. H. Fisher then gave his annual welcome address. After extending a welcome to the freshmen and all other students, President Fisher spoke of the present condition of this school ftoan cially and otherwise. He spoke of the present crisis in country and international events and of the challenge which is thereby presented to youth. " Peggy McKay announced the Tuesday Mixer and Julia Chirsten-sen urged all the girls in school to attend the W. A. A. rally. r .. —— O : — ' W Club Program Features Election Dr. Herbert E. Fowler resigned his position as head of the English department several days before the opening of the fall quarter. The offer of a new position came to him unexpectedly and it was so attractive that he could not afford to turn it down. Dr. Fowler left Bellingham last Monday evening, September 25, to take up his work as head of the English department in the Teachers college of New Britain, Connecticut. The State of Connecticut has just abandoned their normal schools and has converted a fourth, at New Britain, into a teachers college. Dr. Fowler has been a member of the faculty here for the past ten years. He made many friends among the students ^nd faculty who sincerely regret his departure. At the time they feel that the offer of the position is a fine compliment to him and the best wishes of his many friends go with him to his new position. Dr. Fowler came here in 1923 from the Normal school at Lewiston, Idaho. He received his A. B. from Princeton and his Master's degree from the U. of W. and his Ph.D. from the New York university. Dr. Fowler took two years (1930-1932) from his position here to complete his work for his Doctor's degree. o — Program To Start Soon Hicks to be Head of English Dept. New Normal Faculty Member Will Arrive Next Week Dr. Arthur C. Hicks is to head the English department of the Normal school. The newly appointed faculty member will be here Monday or Tuesday of next week to meet his classes. Last year and this year Dr. Hicks has been teaching English at State Teachers' college, San Jose, California. ' The president of that institution agreed to release Hicks so that he could accept as department head at Bellingham. Dr. Arthur Hicks received his A. B. and A. M. degrees from the University of Oregon and his Ph.D. de gree from Stanford University in California. He taught part time for three years at the University of Oregon. He was an instructor for one y-.jar at-. Stanford. During the time he was a student at the University of Oregon he took a year off to study music in the East on a scholarship. At the University of Oregon he earned a reputation as an excellent performer on the piano. Dr. Hicks is an able scholar and a successful teacher in the field of English. President C. H. Fisher says of him, "We are fortunate to get such a well prepared man on such short notice to fill an unexpected vacancy". o— School Men Give Affair Vikings' Football Schedule .

Telephone 3180. ^ PAT ALLAN, Editor To the Frosh To the average freshman entering the BELLINGHAM STATE NORMAL school, attendance here is a second choice. His original ambition, his first choice, was to matriculate at one of the two larger colleges in the state. However, bis financial resources are so limited as to prevent this. Therefore he has come here, "Just for a year or so" as an extra-curricular student. During their first year here a large number of men and women enrolled in this manner change their minds. They decide to pursue their studies, eventually to graduate. Others, failing to catch thev modern spirit of the school, become scoffers and sneerers lt;it the "Infinitisimal scandals at the unimportant school". They manage to be present at every occasion in order to exercise their cracker-box wits making depredations on the attempts of those more fortunate students who have gotten into the swing of things here. This will occur this year as certainly as it has in previous years. The greater part of the" enrolling freshmen will certainly come to recognize the breadth and depth of the education to be had here, the truly collegiate atmosphere in the classrooms, the ideas that are hert, waiting to be absorbed. Others will be "cliqued" and become perpetual sour grapes. The snerers will not be taken into the group. They will be talked about. They will be ostracised as alien elements in an otherwise homogenous group. Thy will be more welcome elsewhre. o . — An Eventful Quarter For all those who love dog-fights and horse-races, this is due to be one of Normal's biggest quarters in a long time. First, this rumored matter of incorporation is on the board. In the last analysis, the purpose of incorporation is to make the funds belonging to the Associated Students indepndent of administrative control other than that exerted by those of the faculty who are members of the Board of Control. Mr. Christy evidently realizes that the path to efficiency lies through the slough of experimentation. Second, the new football coach is to be watched. Mr. Lappenbusch has taken hold of school jobs in a manner very positively correlated with his knowledge of the way things are run here. He is making things tick. While we watch him, let us not forget that as a newcomer, he is entitled to every opportunity and each extra bit of support the student body can give him. It is an old Normal tradttion. Third, last, but far from least, latest reports indicate that President Fisher's dream of a new P. E. building does not come entirely from a non-saliva-sealed, five-cent cigar. His program for this school not only includes a new kind of teacher training and a new library, but the concrete and mortar and labor necessary for. the Physical Education Hall second to none in the state. Prexy wants that building, by fair means or politics. We hitch-hikers who get home week-ends via the "Thumb" need not be ashamed of our mode of transportation. What's good enough for Governor Martin is good enough for us. ^WASHINGTON S ^ lt;6 gt;2niiimi!iinfiiiii!iiiNniiininBiicHiiiiiiiiiiii]iiiiiiiiiiur]iiiininuniaiHiiiiiiiiinMiiiiiiHiic»: lt; Are Ya' LISTENING?

We're wondering how long we'll have to hold this one down before they have a life sized one of us put on the main landing.

The reason is all dressed up in black and white and looks like the original "what the well-dressed woman will wear in 1933." That isn't new, folks, but oh, so genuine! f PREXY HAS TURNED PHYSICAL CULTURIST! If you think it's easy catching a butterfly with $200,000 pinned on the wings—well, tell it to President Fisher. The above picture, snapped by our star "picture snatcher", Mr. Norland, shows Prexy in action, after the P. E. Building of ours. Briefly, the figures have the following meaning: PREXY FAITH BUTTERFLY HOPE P. E.

He became a master of the short story and did not limit his interest to sports alone. Lardner wrote some of the finest short stories yet written in America. He had an astonishing gift for penetrating into the psychological level of his characters and writing in their own vernacular. His reputation as a humorist resulted largely from a popular misinterpretation of the tone of his writing. Many failed utterly to perceive his pitiless irony and satire. Apparently Writing funny stories, in reality he Was writing a terrible indictment of the philistinism and asininity of phases of American middle-class life. His characters are nearly all cruel, vicious, grasping, or stupid. He has none of that fraternal sympathy with which Sinclair Lewis treats his characters... Lardner has been likened to Jonathan Swift in his ability to satirize the objects of his hatred. Lardners best stories are collected, in a one volume edition entitled "Round-Up", published by Scrib-ner's... His other works include a play, "June Moon", written with George Kaufman, and a burlesque autobiography, "The Story of a Wonder Man". ' : To...those' who did not know it,;the NprmaL school has really been in operation for oyer four, weeks! Two hundred and seyenty-six•/•'•'•students will back up this statement. As you may havei•guessed/ by this time, the students.' range from, five to fifteen years in age arid are members of the Canipufe school maintained in conjunction with...the Normal for the benefit of practice to be gained by ambitious student teachers. Although maintained for this purpose at no time are tlw» children ranked as less importarr. than the student teacher. The pupil is always foremost. ' The children in the first eight grades also make use of our own faculty in addition to their own staff: Miss Jewell and Miss Weyth-man assist in the physical education work; Mrs. Krous and Miss Mathews in the music; Mr. Philippi in the science; Miss Sundquist in the elementary science; Mr. Buckmick in the industrial arts; and Miss Countryman in all the household arts. It might do us all good if we compared our conduct with lots of seventh grade youngsters that I have had occasion to notice in class and in the halls.

No, that isn't the rain hitting on the roof, it's just the sound of my typewriter as I try in vain to pound out my first column of the year. What a job! I hope I make it. Anyway, it looks good to see so many students up here this year—new and old, and to all appearances it looks like we're in for a bigger and better sport season than ever. Already a large intramural program is getting under way under the direction of Sam Carver, of the P. E. department, and also a large squad of football men have been turning out for the last week under Coach "Chuck" Leppenbusch who is working hard trying to put out a winning team for the school this year. Speaking of football, if a person didn't know, they'd think Lappenbusch i*as training a group of chorus girls for the Follies, or sumpthin', instead of a bunch of big he-man football players. You ought to watch them go through their dance steps out on the field some night during turnout. Intramural managers beware! A new rival will be in the intramural fields this year. Us reporters up here in this Viking office have decided that it is high time that we stepped out and picked up a few intramural championships, so that we'll have a few flags to decorate the office with. So watch out when the volley-ball tournament starts, because we'll be there With bells on. , Maybe I'm wrong, but—// Coach Lappenbusch can develop some reserve strength we will win a lot of games this fall—The intramural volleyball league is going to become?cs popular as the basketball league— This column is going to cause a lot of grief and pain among all of, us before this year is over—Harry Coheen and Bill Pierron would make Coach Lappenbusch a good pair of water carriers—Willie Toby looks like the real goods even though he is a fairly small parcel—The Senators are going to win th World Series in six games—. Let's hurry, volleyball managers, and get our teams signed up so that -we can get started. THAT'S ALL FOR TODAY, FOLKS! —. o Annual Is Successful According to Editor In Financial Report Has Largest Balance in Years; Many Klipsuns Sold Eilene Morrison, editor of the 1933 Klipsun, reports a very successful book financially with a balance of approximately $75. This is the largest balance realized in a number of years. In 1930 the Klipsun went in debt, but redeemed itself in 1931, and in 1932 there was $6 profit. In 1932 the Klipsun picnic cost $40 while last year the individuals paid the expenses, which accounts for the balance. This will be very useful for this year's edition with the advance in prices. Miss Morrison approves highly of the plan by which the students pay $1 a quarter for their Klipsun, because it gives the manager an opportunity to pay the . bills as they come in, and it sells more books.' Six hundred twenty-five books were published in the spring of 1933. Sport Rally Held In Gym Thursday For B.S.N.S Coeds Women Sign for Sport Teams for Fall Quarter The Women's Athletic association began their program for the year with a sports rally for all the women in the school, held in the big gymnasium Thursday, September 30, at 4:00 o'clock. The sports that are offered this quarter were briefly described and the girls signed up for those sports in which they wished to participate. The sports offered this quarter are volleyball, hockey and soccer. Volleyball and soccer will be given on Tuesday and Thursdays and hockey on Monday and Wednesday. Hikes to the many beautiful points of interest around Bellingham will be enjoyed by the girls on Saturdays. Lappenbusch Urges School Spirit By Coach Lappenbusch ing steadily.

The enrollment of Bellingham Normal school is much greater than it is in many other institutions of this kind in the Northwest. It is a state institution, "and having no tuition, lends greatly toward increasing the possibility of its future growth. The co-operative spirit in athletics in our school is growing, and grow-order to win athletic games, and this in turn will win the interest and enthusiasm of the down town folk. This is what we need and we are going to get it! The team has the enthusiasm, the courage, the co-operative spirit,— will the student body push with the same pep and co-operation? Will the faculty join? How about the people of the city?—Don't worry about them. They'll be courteous! Football is a sport which makes good men better. We are trying to teach men to live the best possible way that we know today. That is what religion is teaching. That is the purpose of our schools. In football we MUST do this in order to have the men healthy enough to win football games. A man must keep improving himself physically, enlighten himself mentally, and lead a sound life morally in order to meet the extreme demands of participation in a game of football successfully. Jf this is what football and other athletics are doing, isn't the undertaking of building high caliber teams and school spirit well worth your individual support? %: i:;,'^we^jETO:l6bk^;^oninwcd to;a bigger ; and better^ JU^itutipzu;k School spirit extends b e y o n d . ^ y doors ox |he school, so let nsiifl^^^KW by making it know•':yrejffi;ijm J-^}\'r TlMymcli is ;,.lqiDk^";lor^ii;-'wirii|. s; Vikings Team Line is Strong, Backs are as Squad Enters Third Week's Drill Fast, By Jack Kemphaus . X marks the spot and on it one finds Normal's new coach, Chuck Lappenbusch and his 1933 Viking football team. All Bellingham fans and scheduled opponents are anxiously waiting to see if Lappenbusch and his new system will be able to create a new football deal at the local institution and produce a winner. Varsity Line Strong On the spot, Lappenbusch will fight to get off it and start a successful season with a sturdy line which promises to be one of Bel-lingham's finest. At the present time, however, there is a lack of reserves in the forward wall. Although the varsity line will be plenty tough it is doubtful if it will be physically capable of standing the strain of the murderous schedule which starts at double fortne against the University freshmen October 13 and continues at that pitch with six major games in an even six weeks. Backfield Light What the Vikings do in football depends largely upon the line—on how it takes the pressure off the secondary defense and snaps back into the open on offense. If Lappenbusch can find good linesmen, Bellingham is due to have a fairly successful season. The backfield, with the exception of Imhoff, 181- pound fullback, will be light. However, it has speed and versatility, although it cannot claim too much power. The line on which Lappenbusch is pinning his hopes, shapes up with Milt Flint, 185-pound letterman; Claypoole and O'Dell, 185 and 170 pounds respectively, fighting it out for end berths. The tackle positions probably, will be manned by Bill Ames, 179 pounds, Hosin, 175 pounds, and Smick, 200 pounds. Up to date these" three men have shown real power, both on offense and on defense. However, there is still a lack of tackle reserve strength. Guards Are Strong The guard posts bid to be one of the most interestingly fought-for positions, with Ray Sulkosky, sensational defensive artist, big Mike Tomco, 180-pounder, Henry Mitchell, 180 pounds, and George Willis, 165 pounds, battling for berths. The center position is causing Lappenbusch no end of worry with only Otto Finley, letterman, showing any real promise. In the- backfield, Imhoff, 181 pound fullback, is counted on as one of the best prospects the Vikings have. Art Bagley, 170 pound letter-man, has been calling the signals for the varsity backfield and looks to be a sure starter. Willie Toby, fleet-footed, slippery half, is bidding strongly as is Les Williams. The last two are lightweights, tipping the scales at only 155 pounds. Walt Miller and. Walt Sinko, flashy halfbacks, together with Wardner, and Davidson, are also fighting for backfield positions. Sinko, it will be remembered, was one of ; the most spectacular offensive and defensive players on last year's squad. Walt, although a week behind in turning out, should be holding down a varsity berth as soon as he becomes familiar with Lappen-busch's shift. —o- Four Teams Signed In Volleyball League For This Quarter Sports Will Start Soon Albee, Hussey, Lindsley and Co-op Enter Teams Up to last night at 4:00 o'clock, four teams had been entered in the intramural volleyball league that will start next week.

September 30, from eight until~ evsTs^o'clock, in the big gym, with Christine Ambers as chairman. All girt: in the school, as well as women faculty members, are invited. For the past few days a list has been posted on the bulletin board, where Sophomore girls should sign for their Freshman partners. Each girl is to decide with.her partner as to which one of them shall be dressed as a girl, and which as a boy, and they are to be companions for the evening. ; Harriet Rickerson has charge of the games, which will include "London Bridge" and "Drop the Hand kerchief". All girls who are living some place where they can't get some child's kiddy car, skooter or wagon, are requested to rob the child of either or all of these toys for the evening and take them to the party, so that many can participate in races which will ensue if enough of these vehicles are present. A great part" of the evening will be spent in dancing, of which com mittee Louise Schultz is chairman. Then, to top the evening' off, Mary Fishers* committee has planned re freshments which would thrill any childish heart. %. .'Vv •}i- '• -—'',' ,/.

Students who plan to take the hike are to meet in front of the main building at 1:00 p. m. tomorrow. According to Dr. E. A. Bond, hike leader, the party will work their way to the top of the mountain by hiking to the south from the campus around the mountain rather than via city streets. When the goal is reached there will be hot coffee served to all who bring their own r Each hiker is requested to bring his own lunch and meet at the front of the" building promptly. Dates Interchanged; Informal October 28; Many Social Affairs Grads Return for Normal Game on November 18th A change in this quarter's social calendar has been made, due to'the fact that Homecoming is always held with either the Cheney or El-lensburg game. The date, October 28, previously set, was the day #f the College of Puget Sound game, therefore homecoming and the Women's league informal have been interchanged, making the informal October 28 and Homecoming November 18. Along with these two big events this quarter has a full calendar of other big affairs. The "W" club dance is Saturday, October 14, and the Edens hall informal falls on Saturday, November 24. The Junior- Senior party will be given on October 21, while the sophomore and the freshmen have their innings on November 4 and 10, respectively. The Drama club play, always the highlight of the quarter, comes on Thursday and Friday evenings, November 23 and 24. On Friday evening, October 27, occurs the first evening rec hour of the quarter. On December 15 the all-school Christmas party, the last social event of the quarter, will be held in the gym. This year the party will be held in the morning instead of at night as has usually been done before. o CONVICTS GET HIGH GRADES Of the inmates of the Minnesota state prison enrolled in the university correspondence courses, 70 per cent received grades of A or B. o Arvid Griffen is attending the University of Washington this fall.

Because they are not anxious to have a lot of Weary Willies on their hands at their dance following the Inside Informal, the Outside girls are urging intensified muscular development for stamina for the few and sought-after men in the school.

WILL REPAIR CHAIRS The Board of Control drew up the winter quarter budget and gave it official sanction at the meeting Tuesday night. All the board mem bers were present in addition to President C. H. Fisher. The budget will dispense the $6.00 student activity fee of each student in the following manner: $1.75 of each student's fee will go for athletics this quarter; $2.50 will go for providing lectures and entertainments; $0.70 will be for the subscription to the Northwest Viking; social life, which: includes fee. hours and special dances,. will get $0.80, and'the debate team will be provided with $0.25 out of the total fee. Any money that is not spent this quarter will go to making up the deficit incurred during the fall quarter. Expensive Quarter Because of football, the most expensive of the athletics, and because of the Musical artists concerts presented so far this season, there is a larger deficit from the fall quarter than any expected at any other time. The athletic department has spent $700 more than their budget provided. Lectures and entertainments were $400 overdrawn. The social fund was $58, and the Viking $50 inttie-red. Fall quarter deficits are always made up during the summer quarter if not in the other three. This is because of the increased enrollment during the summer. Orchestra Hired Dorothy Knuppenberg and her orchestra was hired by the board to play for the rec hours this quarter. It was also decided that double rec hours will be held as often as possible and when not interfering with other school activities. Howard Wilder was appointed by the board as a committee of one to see that the chairs in the students' association office were repaired. FACULTY MEMBERS VISIT SEATTLE CLUB FRIDAY HARBOR DISCUSSED AS LABORATORY LOCATION. Four faculty members, C. H. Fisher, H. V. Masters, H. E. Ruckmick, and H. C. Philippi, motored to Seattle last Saturday evening,to attend a meeting of the Saturday Night Club. This association meets once a month and is an educational organization of men from the schools of; Seattle and vicinity. Its purpose is to discuss various problems of present day interest. Friday Harbor Talk Dr. Thomas G. Thompson was the main speaker of Saturday evening's meeting. He is professor of chemistry and director of the oceano-graphical laboratories of the University of Washington. Dr. Thompson discussed the possibilities of converting the Friday Harbor Biological Station into a laboratory of oceanography. At an institution of that sort, studies'and researches of what, takes place in the Pacific ocean would be made. .•- One of the former assistants in the science department of this school; Lyman Phifer, has been ap-pointed assistant to Dr. Thompson and ,wiU be located at Friday Harbor the year: wound to searches and experiments.: Phifer has spent many years at the University: Of Washh^^n tu^d Thomp-son regards him as a very capable person for such a position.

Durihg a sliorfc business meeting the organization also; decided to have a party on the .thirtieth of January. They are, however, undecided as to where to hold the party. Following the business meeting, a short program was given as follows: A vocal solo by Chariot Glensky, a talk on "Symbolism" by Cornell Weise, and James Carrell gave a reading: "A Morality Play for the Leisure Class" by Philip L. Balder-ston. ..±s= gt;.;-- The next meeting will be held the second Monday : in February. On that date, Mr. Hoppe's drama class will give a short play. PLANS PERFECTED FOR DEBATE TOUR WILL MEET MEMBERS OF COAST FORENSIC LEAGUE TALKERS. U. OF W. ON LIST Plans are perfected for a debate tour which will carry the Belling-ham Normal team as far south as Corvallis, Oregon, according to an announcement made Thursday by Mr. James Carrell, coach of debate. The trip will probably include contests ^th'five Washington and Orer gon;-'Sc!io^r;-fe^ Definite dates ,for the trip have not been fixed, but the second week in March is named as the most probable time. The selection of those who will make the trip will be upon a competitive basis, based upon the results of earlier contests. The trip will be the first of its kind ever undertaken by the Normal school. haranguers. A debate with the University of Washington at Seattle-will probably be the first contest. This will be followed by debates with the College of Puget Sound, Tacoma; Pacific university, Forest Grove, Oregon; Linfield college, .McMinnville, Oregon; Oregon Normal, Monmouth, Oregon, and Oregon State College.

(Newspaper Member) A PEDESTRIAN TRAP Wherever one lane of busy traffic must cross the thoroughfare at an angle to reach a destination, a serious accident hazzard is involved. TOQ many times the pedestrian who stands* nearby, unprotected from sliding or careening vehicles; is the one that receives the most physical violence. Hence .there has been provided safety lanes, sinal systems, and die; safety island 'for the trolley rider who must stand in the street unprotected in any way from the oncoming auto. • gt; .Particular care is stressed.m regard.to the crossings near schools where the many children and young men and women are hurrying back and forth each day;^K- . It is claimed that such care is taken for the protection of students about the cityf;andiyet one of the most dangerous spots in the city is close by to the Normal school and is constantly used as a terminus by its students. We refer in particular to the angles of crossings lying directly below Garden Terrace steps. Here we find one street branching at an angle from Garden, the street car tracks getting over onto one side of the street, and £ necessity of standing out in the very crotch of the street angle to 'geta.car.,. ; ,o'",'.;'•.'•'....'• . A safety island could be constructed by the city at a very low cost, and could be placed right at the corner inside the retaining curbs for the present shrubs and flowers. In fact, it is something that should have been attended to long ago, and we sincerely urge those wijh proper authority to investigate the "pedestrian trap" immediately. ;••• A "cheering" response was given last, spring in assembly to a certain "sbUrid and-dance" reproduction of native southern island peoples. , It was nothing more than entertainment without value. ;^:The: same interpreter is hitting the Normal schools in some of the midwest: states. To put things in the right setting we recommend a circus show idea. Ethel Codd Luenning, who appeared here a week ago Tuesday, and in Cheney last Friday, was one of the best received artists appearing in assemblies for some time. Incidentally, her program ended on time. £|%A: real deadlock existed in a certain jury this week. Eleven of them \vranted^to take in a show, but the twelfth, who was quite religious, refused. Sunday rolled around and the religious one wanted to take in church^ll nays dispelled his hopes. We ask you, should there have been a motion for a new trial? [Several Seattle juveniles are being exiled from the State as a matter of choice between going to a reformatory or living elsewhere. This matter of choice presented so that they will have a better "break" hereafter; We question the wonderful chance that they are getting with the widespread publicity announcing where future residence will be taken up. ;.'V\-;;:/'•• ,.,'; : • J '. , .

However, a few well prepared seniors may be granted a special privilege for research work. There are only two other schools of this type on the Pacific Coast, the Scripps Institute in Southern California and the other at Stanford. The $250,000 is to be spent on buildings and equipment for the school at Friday Harbor. Thomas G. Thompson, instructor at the University of Washington," suggests that the Bellingham Normal offer a course similar to that of the Friday Harbor course because of the opportunities of this district. Such places as Normalstad on Lake Whatcom, Viqueen Lodge on Sinclair island, and the laboratories on the campus are excellent places for this work. : -O—'—. ' STATISTICIAN FOR STATE . DIVISION VISITS HERE L. D. Burrus, statistician "in t he state department of Education, was a visitor at t h e Normal this week conferring with President Fisher and members of the faculty concerning the proposed legislation and the Showalter bill. This measure, which was thrown into the legislative hopper this week, provides for material reorganization of school financing, and changes the method for election of county superintendents. The bill is sponsored by N. D. Showalter, state superintendent of schools. / The proposed bill attempts to effect a change in t h e financial status of rural schools by drawing larger proportion of support from the country and state, rather than the local district. County superintendents will be appointed by a board, which, in turn, is elected by t he voters, if the bill passes in its present form. Under the present system, superintendents are chosen at the regular election and the county board appointed by the superintendent. : -O :— President of School Donates Travel Book President C. H. Fisher presented the library with an autographed copy of Byrd's "Little America." The book bore the following dedication: "Presented to t h e library by President C. H. Fisher on the occasion of the visit of Rear Admiral Richard E. Byrd to Bellingham; January 14, 1931." — —0-; High Schools Given Signed Book Copies Five autographed copies of "Little America" are to be presented to the various high schools of Bellingham and vicinity by the Normal school. The presentation of these books is based on the number of tickets to Byrd's lecture that were sold by the high schools, as compared to their enrollment. Fairhaven high school will receive a copy in its general assembly next week, as twenty-five percent of. the; total student body bought tickets to Byrd's lecture. As Whatcom had ten per cent it will also receive a book. Another copy will be presented to Sedro-Wobliey high school arid as yet it is not definitely decided as to whom the other two volumes will be given; ~ 1 ^yyx gt;rd was received frprn some of the outside high schools, that if tickets had been available? the entire student body would have attended the lecture.

They also played several practice games with nearby high school teams. I n looking for good basketball players* you do not necessarily have to look over the varsity squad for your flash. Start at the bottom of the school teams to find him. There is a player on the Jayvee team who deserves a few boquets for the showing of that outfit this season. This man never played basketball before he came to Normal. He now plays a good, hard-fighting, consistent game in his second year on the Jayvees. The person I have in mind is none other than Bob Carboneau. The Vikings dispelled any doubt that might have been existing about their potential strength when they defeated St Martins, 35 to 24, last Saturday in the Whatcom gym. The Vikings looked much better than they did when they downed Centralia Junior College the week previous. Led by Occie Thorsen and Jimmy Rork, the local lads demonstrated that they have more possibilities than Coach Carver has seen for some time. The Vikings completely out-classed the visitors in passing, checking and on short shots. Thorsen, Abbott and Rork worked the ball down into their own territory and did not usually shoot until they had gained close-up shots. St. Martins resorted to long shots which they didn't follow up. Thorsen was the home team leader as he led the march down the floor into the opposition's territory, and rang up 13 markers toward the total score. Abbott and Skotheim played their usual good name and seemed to be everywhere that the ball was, at the right moment. The game was by far the roughest that the Vikings have played this year. The St. Martins team was much heavier than the Vikings, but far from being the speediest of the two teams. Half Lead The score at the end of the first half stood 15 to 13 with the hill-toppers in the lead. Rork and Thorsen made 11 of the 15 points, and Abbott and Sherman each made a field goal. In the second half the Vikings came out looking like a new team and nothing that the rangers could do could stop their advances. Rork did not seem able to be able to hit the basket in the second canto like he did in the first, but Thorsen started in where Rork left off and sank 9 markers. Sherman played a good game and.gave the opposing offense a lot of trouble. The fans saw John Dixon in action again for. a few minutes but he had to be taken out owing to a pulled muscle. Skotheim went in for Dixon and played the rest of the game. Campbell, Flowers, and Shelton did not see action last Saturday. The line-up— St. Martins— Pos.

Rock Pile Starting the second half of the intramural race off with a bang, the second place Thespians toppled the highly touted band of Philos, who finished first last half. Before the game the odds were highly in favor of the Philos, who handed the Thespians their only defeat of the first half. The game was played last Tuesday. The score see-sawed back and forth through the entire game and ended with the Thespians holding a 22-16 lead. The Philos jumped into an early lead, but their lead was quickly erased by some remarkable shooting of the Thespians. The half ended 11-10 in favor of the winners. Carter and Hutchins broke into the scoring column with six points each. Moe lead the losers with seven points. The line-ups: Thespians. Philos. Carter (6) F (1) Baxter Collier (2) F.

The courtroom was in the Big Gym with Chief Judge Pauline Ritter officiating. The chain laden prisoners entered handcuffed to their jailers, the paddle squad, and were given their edicts of hard work on the rock pile to do before being paroled into the custody of the club for the quarter. The nature of the work to be done on the mythical rock pile, amounted to^ entertainment of the group without previous preparation. The guests were the Misses Ruth Weythman, Marjory Horton, and Lillian George. Adjournment was made to the cafeteria where a "feed" was served. The president, Sigred Wiberg, gave a short welcome speech to all who joined and presented, the certificates of membership. Songs were sung and the convicts were left to fulfill the sentence of washing dishes.

At this time it was decided to meet on April 21 to adopt a con- ;stituton, and eleqt pm James Carrell has been ichqseii.-vifai Editorial circles were stirred yesterday by a revelation of the undercover activities of a bunco salesman working in the city. The salesman, under an assumed name and posing as a Normal student, has been working the downtown section, allegedly selling subscriptions to The Northwest Viking. Well Dressed A number of downtown merchants report being approached by a well dressed young man claiming to be a member of the staff of The Viking, in the employ of the circulation department, who, under the pretense of trying to increase the circulation of the paper, has displayed all the qualities of a high pressure man. Many merchants are said to have fallen victims to this bunco man to the tune of 2 cents per issue for various lengths of time, and only the suspicions of William Stuber, 714 East Holly street, to whom the faker attempted to sell a subscription, led to the discovery of this bold scheme. Description Obtained An accurate description of the man was obtained, as well as his name, which is thought to be assumed, and investigators are making a careful study of the case. The business staff of The Viking (Continued on Page Three) PLAN SUMMER TERM SEVERAL NEW INSTRUCTORS ADDED TO FACULTY LIST.

REPERTOIRE VARIED Miss Viola Wasterlain, violinist of international fame will appear next Tuesday's assembly. Born in a musical home and absorbing the works of the masters all through her youth, Miss Wasterlain has emerged to receive the unstinted praise of world celebrities and music critics. Five Scholarships Winning five separate and distinct scholarships from Cesar Thomson, the distinguished Belgian ,violinist, is sufficient evidence of extraordinary talent and ability which are displayed by this young artist on the concert platform. Miss Wasterlain's repertoire is comprehensive, indicating industry and catholicity of taste, and her sense of appropriateness is apparent in program building, .critics declare. Given Praise Cesar Thomson, in a letter^written at San Francisco, said: "Miss Viola Wasterlain has unusual musical depth, paved with great technical facility. She is one of the foremost violinists America has produced. I recommend her highly and wish her all success." The Sayre (Penn.)

THROUGH THE YEARS One of the greatest issues ever to be discussed here at Normal by the students,, student officials, and faculty—provided that talk per hour is a •soe^ometer-—is the Rec hour question. 1 E r | ^ ,th^-day that Rec hour was started until today, when orchestras aifiej agalpct^osei£ the subject has never had a death. Rec hour has pro-vi^^ li^tvvp-fdel pleasure for the school as a whole. It has given them ai^ hourifordancing and it has given them a topic that is usable in con-vesriajhgii^ l any type at any one of 'the twenty-four hours of the day, e v j ^ J ^ y r ^ t h e year. It is an inexhaustible subject, and will never fail to^getjitsff|espo^e, and thus we don't feel that we are digging up a subject uiat'is obsolete and of no interest to the students when we once J^oVe start it merrily on its way. The students wanted double Rec hours and they succeeded in getting them. .'However,, we ask,.have they done away with the true spirit of the traditibnai dance by securing the legislation that they did ?• Objections naye recently been voiced. The only objection by officials and others,,apparently in the know, is that these evening affairs take away the true spirit of the Rec hour institution. That they should p£ of the most informal type and should not even hint toward the possibility that added "dressiness" is required. Most students claim that they do not feel any air of formality in the big gym at the evening doings. We doubt that many of them do, and yet oie\fact remains—4he Rec hours during the past three quarters have not had the pep in them that they used to...have. Since the double session the general reaction is not one of cherishing that precious one hour of hilarity as in the days of old. We have declined to agree with many of the expressions of lost "Rec hour tradition," but w e must admit that it seems to be the handiest reason to select for the loss of pep. One thing should never be forgotten, though, and that is that if the students don't dance here on Friday evenings when nothing else is going on, they must go elsewhere for entertainment. If they are satisfied with evening affairs, they should be allowed to have them, barring of course, conflicting conditions.

Sam Carver will be on leave of absence and "Pop" Gunn, with the aid of "Dutch" Wilder, will handle the Men's Physical Education classes for the summer.

Miss Adele Jones will offer a non-professional three credit course in Dressmaking. In the Science Department, since the Normal no longer has an interest in the Puget Sound Biological Station, two new courses will be added to the regular summer school curriculum. Mr. H. C. Phillippi will offer an upper division subject, "Science for the Junior High School," a five credit course. Miss Hilda Ro-sene will give a new course in Field Biology, a 6-credit course which will be given three days a week,for the whole afternoon. Registration High Dean , Bever,; i n . commenting on the registration figures for this quarter, said: "Registration in the Spring quarter, which usually slumps is far better than last year." Oyer 750 students are enrolled at the pres ent time. The increase in enroll ment is probably_ydue..tcj the fact that students ;^e;V:u^p6:.:.;toV; find work•;during the,^business.: depress siori; Be\rer "remarked;;; I'^M^^i^'!••'': I have just received word that the administration absolutely,-refuses to countenance the sclen^Tic • :^heory,': tha^ when a mail grows older, his. hah], grows deeper, and that lt; if it ftadV gray matter it turns, that color, f| not, it falls out. SuoJ^ weighty decisions must be accepted. .';'" -^W.S.N.S.-r^ PHILOSOPHIZING Ceremony is usually employed to impress people with something that hasn't merit enough to stand alone. . —W.S.N.S.—• A conversation heard last week in the halls ran somewhat as follows: Normalite: We should have convicted you of stealing that money. Aren't you ashamed of yourself? Normal Ike: No; I've learned in school that one should not be ashamed of one's honest convictions. —W.S.N.S.— Will Rogers, noted for his wisecracks and observations that "could not possibly displease anyone," made an interesting statement recently. Says philosopher Will: "It's funny how quick a College Boy can find out that the World is wrong. He might go out in the World from High School and live in it, and make a living in it for years and think it wasn't such a bad place, but let him go to College and he will be the first down on the Square on May Day to shout down with the government." Quite true, perhaps exaggerated, but still true. And did he ever notice that in a forest reserve, the lookout house to locate fires is situated on the summit of a hill and not down in the forest next to the fire. —W.S.N.S.— I see where a community in St. Louis has gone to law to change the name of Lindbergh Boulevard back to its original name of Denny Road. Possibly it was hard to tell whether Lindbergh referred to an aviator, a baby boy, candy bar, ice cream sundae, or perhaps it was confused with a popular odorous cheese. —W.S.N.S.— SUB-NORMAL SUSIE SAYS: The new. boy frends so screemingly cley-ah and uses so many pare boxes its just KILLING. Now he, told me the other day that he KNEW I was a NICE girl from the first time he MET me cause he saw that my HEELS were run over. Now whad-ya thinka that? —W.S.N.S.— At West Point, the request of a Japanese Prince that all punishment of the students be remitted, was complied with by the superintendent. What a fine idea. And now let's petition some notable to request that all our class cuts be excused, that the retiring hour for girls be set at midnight and perhaps that cadet teaching be reduced to three weeks. —W.S.N.S-A student at the U. of W. complains that many times he goes through a whole quarter without being able to find out from his fellow students who the teacher ,is and he requests that all intsructors announce their names, 'at least once, the beginning of each quarter. Now our trouble is different. We know all our teachers' names and they know ours too well. —W.S.N.S.— YE DIARY I do decide to playe tom-foolery on thee stoodent body, and soe do get out ---------- Northwest Viking - 1931 April 17 - Page 3 ---------- WA^NJGTre^ S l f^ :;;.V, ;*;;^:!^ gt;: gt;KJj^.^.i; ilfcKS. aoi IOC Bj Klb =aoE ., On May 12 the whole school will .be out cleaning up .the campus, for that date has been set aside as Campus Day. Last year there were sports of all descriptions and the faculty even tried to beat the students. J^ow about a little bit of competition this year. •; For the last few weeks outsiders :bave been using the school courts. A sign will be placed on the courts, requesting outsiders not to use them. Let's^tbehlud.this.rule and help to keep the courts for ourselves. .. On April 29 the Viking track squad will meet the .squad f rom the .College of Puget Sound on Waldo field for |the first scheduled track meet of the season. This will be a good time to see the team in action, so let's work up a little pep and go out and support the boys. Because of rain the baseball team ,has not been able to hold any practice games and the first game of the season is here with St. Martins on April 25. Let's hope that it doesn't rain on that date. ( gt; CLASS TRACK MEET STARTS IN MORNING F I R S T EVENT COMPETITIONf FOB.STABS THIS SEASON. I SLATINGS MADE CORRECTION In tlast week's issue a statement was made concerning an inter-class track meet for the following., day. That was a grave mistake for the track meet will take place tomorrow, that is, if the weather is fair enough. So if there will be a good turnout, the boys will try and put on a good show for every one. At 10 o'clock tomorrow morning Coach Sam Carver's 1931 track anjl field aspirants will go through their paces for the first time in actual competition this season in the form of a frosh-soph interclass meet. This meet has been a traditional affair for the past several seasons and many close meets have been witnessed. Feeling has been running high for the past few days and some remarkable marks will probably be made during the meet. The upperclassmen are out to avenge, a close defeat handed them by the yearlings last spring. High Stars The frosh, with several former high school stars in their ranks, present a very formidable array in the sprints and hurdles. The sophs' greatest strength lies in field events and the distance runs. Coach Carver's tentative schedule for this spring includes meets with the College of Puget Sound, the U. of W. Frosh, and the Tri-Normal meet. Takingall in all the Normal track mentor should present a track squad as strong, if not stronger, than the near-championship squad of last spring. Losing the Tri-Normal championship last year by the relay race, Carver is pointing his men towards avenging that defeat. ESMOND ASRll^NTS: ROtJNDING WTO Sr PE;^ CUT EXPECTED SOON Also it might be added that although Mel Hein was an All-Ameri- ,can football man, he is not. the track star. There are three Hein brothers and all of them are athletes. It is one of Mel's brothers that is the javelin stars. Again the West scored. Last Saturday the University of Washington crew broke the Bears and remained supreme in crewdom of the West. And not only.that but they broke .three old records on the Oakland Estuary. First it was the Frosh, then it was the J. Vtt-. and then it was the varsity. From now on the battle cry will be, "On to Poughkeepsie, on to Poughkeepsie and Victory." Go get .'em, Huskies, and we're pulling for you. At last action has started, the intramural baseball teams have been organized and a schedule arranged. Those teams that are in the running are: Co-op, Kitchen Krew, Reynolds Hall, and the Fire Hall. The first game was .slated to be played last night between the Coop, and the Kitchen Krew and the final score was: Co-op 1, Kitchen Krew 2. The next game will be played next Tuesday between the Fire Hall and Reynolds Hall. In speaking of freak athletics, the basketball tournament at Santa Fe, *N. M„ held on April 11, was rather odd. "The unusual sight of basketball teams seeking to lose, rather than to win, their games, and even helping their opponents to possible victory, was the situation in a sec,tional basketball tournament here." The freak situation developed when an odd number of teams were entered in the tournament for the championship, which necessitated five byes and a two-game elimination in the first round. To settle fee question? the byes, went to the losers of the first five games and there was a mad scramble to lose these games. , The prize contest in the attempt, to lose was waged between Cerrillos and Las Vegas, with the latter five finally emerging morally victorious by reason of its defeat; The two quintets defended the goals they yrere supposed to shoot at and fired the ball at the hoop they were supposed to guard. '/} ;/T1tfS year at the Tri-Normal |rack meet we are liable to see a golf tournament, as the schools are *rytog to a i r o i ^ one. Rork and :.|a«reon'^»eem/ to Wleadiii£ 'on''.' the $olf ladder, and if the golf meet is : : f c ^ i u ^ * l ^ ; ^ ' prtb^y^mak^i consist of three .,. Dash Opens .Class Meet . With the. opening gun at 10 o'clock, Cable and Thomas, frosh, and Kirv Smith, sophs, will leave their marks for the 100 yard dash, this being the first competitive race of the season. Both frosh runners are former high school sprinters of last season, and will more than likely present a blanket finish when they hit the tape. Immediately following this, the mile race will take place. The .only entries in this race thus far are Hubler and Carter for the lower classmen. It is hoped that a soph opponent will sign up. 220-Yard Race Gable, Thomas, and Campbell have entered the 220 for the frosh, Eagari arid Smith representing the sophs. No opponents have been found for the frosh high hurdlers, L. Jones, Collier, and Davies. In the 440- yard dash, Danielson and Hubler, frosh, and Duyff and Bright, sophs, will toe the marks. Due to a scarcity of two-milers among the frosh, Shelton and Carboneau will have an easy .time ^chalking up eight points for the sophomores. ,: f \ A good race can be expected when Jones, Davis, Dawson, and Collier, frosh, and Eagan and Flowers, sophs, leave the, starting line for the 220- yard low hurdles. Only two runners will fight it put for honors in the 8?0-yard run, Hubler for the frosh, and Bright for the sophs. Field Events Campbell, Collier, and E. Jones will represent the yearling class in the pole vault. Eagan, Shelton, and Carboneau will feature for the second year men. Those who will seek altitude in the high jump are Davis, Collier, Dawson, frosh; and Eagan, Grayrock, and Flowers, sophomores. Those of the platter sailing event who will enter are Sutton and Dawson, frosh, and Flowers and Grav-rock, sophs. Sutton, Dawson for the lower classmen, and Flowers, Moe, and Grayrock, upper classmen, will seek distance in the shot event. Those hurling the spear are Haggard,. Collier, and Kemphays, frosh, and Flowers and Smith, sophs. Entering the broad jump are Gable, Davis, Dawson, arid Danielson, frosh, and Flowers and Shelton, sophs. The meet will close with a race between two relay teams which as yet have not been selected. Weather Watched Jupiter Pluvius has slowed up the activities of the track athletes for the past few days, but it is hoped that a clear day will greet the participants. \Mpre than likely Coach Carver will select his entire team from Jhose entering the meet tomorrow, so we can be sure of the entrants doing their, best to garner a few points. , Those-men who have won points in any event in past meets will be barred from entering that event. Thiswill giv khe froshi a more equjal standing onx jrhich to display their prowess. ^,.yet-^aV;cominit^ hijs ;nbj' gt;b^-;s^pt^i^p. ;:/• ^over^:;/;:t|e; Coach Gunn's baseball material is rounding into fine / gt; shape, even though the bad weather should hold it up a-great deal.

SPRING FROLIC LISTED IN ANNALS AS GOOD Enjoyed by all Normal students, the All-School Spring Frolic, held last Friday, was one of the big successes of the year. The entertainment and dance was regarded as the best of the season by .those attending. The entertainment starting the Frolic, was a near riot. The idea of the Fashion show was a burlesque of modern styles. The original get-ups of the boys were good, and, with the masterly announcing of Marshall Bacon, went over with the crowd in a big way. Mixed in with the fashion show and chorus was a solo by Wayne Preim, "I Wish I Had a Shotgun". Bobbie Tew's band was on the stage and played the accompaniments for the chorus, as well as several feature numbers. His band also played for the dance in the Big Gym. The viiiole theme of the dance in the Gym was "sportslike". Several displays in the Spring athletic line were made, while the orchestra played from under an awning umbrella. Much credit for this Frolic is due Nellie Cox, general chairman of the frolic; Winnie DeWitt, decoration committee; Cathleen Hill, chairman of the refreshment committee; Jack Malahan, chairman of the entertainment committee; and Charles Gerold, in charge of the clanup com-mitee, for their efforts to make it a success. Patrons and patronesses were: President and Mrs. C. H. Fisher, Mr. and Mrs. V. H. Hoppe; Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Marquis, and Miss Adele M. Jones. . o CURRICULUM CHANGES DISCUSSED BY MILLER FINAL COUNT/PI^ES (Continued from Page; One) CHORUS WILL BE READY FOR SHOW PRECEDING CLEAN-UP. (Continued from Page One) Because of the illness of her brother in Everett, Ramona Gilker is out of school this week. o Wyona Hennings is ill with the munrps at her home at 517 High street. o— Mary Lucile Colman, who was operated on for appendicitis about two weeks ago, is out of the hospital and visiting at Harlows on Garden street. She will not return to school this quarter, but is going to her home in Enumclaw. — P—: • • Carolyn Griffiths is suffering from a sprained ankle. o— Alice E. Erickson has gone to her home in Falls City, where she will remain until she recovers from an attack of tonsilitis. — rO — Dormites Entertained By Pajama Initiation timately take four years of training in order to meet the demands of the best schools, and although it may be some time before four years of Normal training are required in this state, it is unjust that there should be discrimination between the four-year graduate of the Normal school and of the University or State College. Lists Aims The present aim of the curriculum committee is to make possible the attainment of a bachelor's degree after three years at the Normal and one at the university. In order to do this they are trying to provide a large enough number of electives so that students may get major and minor requirements for a degree sufficiently underway to complete these requirements by going to an advanced school for one additional year. It is thought that the combination of teacher training work with elective leeway will enable students to plan their work from the beginning to earn the degree in liberal arts or in the school of education without loss of time, and in other schools, such as journalism, law, science, etc., with relatively little loss. o SPRINGSTEEL SHOWS PICTURES OF CHILE six who fought with Morse for the scant votes needed were: Jesse Sutton, James McCleary, Besse Taylor, Jack Falkner, and Roger Chapman. Kent Man Colin Campbell, prexy-elect of the student body, graduated in *29 from the Kent high school where he was exceptionally prominent in student affairs. During his frosh and sophomore years he served as yell leader, was electa vice prsident his junior year and president of the student body his senior year. His chief interests have been football, plays and debates. Last year Colin became a world traveler and visited the Orient, Panama regions, and other distant lands. Faculty Man Dr. Masters is occupying his second year in the Research and Education work here. He acted as advisor to the sophomore class during the absence of Pelagius Williams quarter. He studied at Western Union College and University of Iowa, both art in the same state. He was assistant superintendent of schools at Hibbing, Minnesota. At the University of Iowa he was Research assistant and later took over the department. _ Elsie O'Donnell, new vice president, graduated last year from Fair-haven high where her chief interest was in dramatics. She is representative to the Women's League judicial board from the freshman class. Elsie had the lead in "The Devil's Disciple", last quarter's Drama club play. From Broadway "Skottie", as he is known to his friends, is a resident of Seattle and graduated from the Broadway high school there. He was president of the junior class in that school, and also prexie for the Boys' club. He graduated at the mid-year exercises of '30. He is prominent in athletic circles here at Normal. David Morse, popular ex-Fair-havenite, is the newly elected one quarter representative. While at high school he was senior class _ _ president, school Falkner yell leader, and business manager of the Fairhaven Aurora. Since enrollment here he has become business manager of the Klipsun and a member of the Thespians.

Mr. Springsteel, who has recently made a world tour, will discuss the South American countries of Chile and Peru and show pictures of interest. GUESTS ENTERTAINED BY M'DOWELL CLUB Normal is promised a real evening of entertainment in the Men's Club Vodvil and Minstrel Show, But this time it will precede the sixth annual Campus Day. The show is dated for Monday evening, May 11, in the auditorium and will begin two Viking feast days—the sixth in Viking tradition—and a glorious time for both students and alumni of the school. There is the likelihood that the annual Campus Day dance will culminate the two-day affair, as it has during the past. The dance is looked forward to by scores of alumni much the same as the fall Homecoming Ball, and Campus Day in a sense amounts to a spring homecoming. Beginning the evening with chorus melody, the program is packed with specialty acts, and ends suddenly nearly three hours later with a bang. The play "Trapped" is the melodramatic finale of the evening. "Trapped" is by Lon Thanhauser (a 47 Harvard workshop play) and is to be presented with a cast of five PPPPP

By Virginia Carver Good afternoon, little friends! Another week (ever so weak) and we are just that much older! My word! How time does fly. Why it seems like only yesterday that we drew doubtful looking pictures of pretty little brown flowers, and now we go to rec hour and stand against the wall with them. ——WJ3.N.S:-— Oh, me! Oh, my! The latest from London says that the "thin red tone" (it sounds like the bread line, but it means the army) are thinking of decking themselves forth in plus fours and jackets with open collars! They'll look collegiate enough we'll wager, and as for going out on one of those clever little shooting matches that armies do go in for; they'll need very little amunition—they can depend on their chic style to knock the enemies cold! W.S.N.S. The Argentine Academy of letters has started a campaign, so to speak, to purify the language spoken there. They've started asking newspapers, radio announcers, and educational authorities to try and use purer Castilian speech. Wouldn't it be just too bad if Uncle Sam took a turn for the worse and asked the radio announcers to start using pure English!.. How many entertainers Would be searching for work I It would eliminate ever so many cowboys, "adenoid singers", hopeful but slightly hopeless infant performers and a couple of hundred wise crackers! And the train announcers! Good ness! W.S.N.S. Babe Ruth, the man who spends all the time batting a ball over a fence, is actually obliged to struggle along for existence on the paltry sum of $70,000 this year! It's really a crime that such a poor undefence-less little fellow should be cut down to poverty wages and expected to live! W.S.N.S.— Coming back to Normal, however, we heard of a faux pas which would startle even the immortal Ripley! At the Informal last week, when everyone was looking dramatically and correctly romantic, an up and coming youth got his Wrigley's P. K. caught in the flowing tresses of his partner! We wouldn't mention1 any names, of course, but the youth waits on tables at the Dorm! W.S.N.S. — Iss there no yustice? Bebe Daniels (Lyon) has one child, and her name and pictures are strewn hither and yon over the country! Yet— Mrs. Kelly, down in the alley, had 17, and didn't get so much as a mention! -W.S.N.S—— Somebody made the crack about eating the Wolf at the door! Tish! It is a mere nothing to what we did! We ate hash yesterday and heaven only knows how many wohes and things there were in it! ———W.S.N.8-^- It's nice to be religious—but sometimes it's a trifle uncomfortable! We wonder how many of our friends would brave icy waters off the mountain for baptism, as sixty converts did in Illinois not long ago. It's hard enough to drag them out of bed for an eight o'clock, when the weather's 78 and the nearest thing they can find to ice is ice cream! WBJT.S . ' We took a testr— We got the grade! Send roses pfawe With the postage paid! OF ANNOUNCES RESULT OF Two Amendments Pass by Huge Majorities; Manager System Loses SPECIAL MEETING HELD rWJSJNB-Well! We'd better sign off! We're gojbig from bad to worse, and donTstop TC^ ro • tag atKirt Jana^ a ^ Results of last Friday's vote on proposed amendments to the constitution were announced at the last Board of Control meeting held last Tuesday, February 16. Of the three measures voted upon by the students, two were passed by overwhelming majorities while the third was defeated by the narrow margin of 24 votes. The amendment pertaining to the lowering of required hours for sweater awards was passed by a vote of 490 for and 26 against, and the measure which would put the hour requirement paragraph into effect last fall went through by a vote of 455 to 43. The new manager plan, which was proposed after a careful study of the different systems had been made by the Board of Control, did not meet the approval of the students and consequently lost by a vote of 235 to 259. Special Meeting A special meeting of the board was called last Thursday, February 11, at which time the sum of $62.50 was voted to be given to Mr. S. S. Ford, manager of the Co-Op, to defray the expenses of a number of delegates to the Co-Op convention to be held' in Seattle this spring who will visit the Normal school during the convention. Business brought up at the regular meeting included a report by Elsie O'Donnell on proposed changes in the constitution which affect the qualifications of election to student offices. She was appointed to .investigate systems of elections and to report to the board at a later date. Nellie Cox, with the aid of Miss O'Donnell, has recently completed a list of helps to managers and chairmen of mixers. This list was adopted by the members of the board and will be mimeographed and distributed to those connected with the mixers or like social functions. One Hour Recreation Due to the fact that many students will be leaving for home over the week-end, the rec hour will be only one hour long this week. President Campbell announced that he will investigate the possibilities of having a mixer at the close of the quarter. Student Body Tickets A discussion concerning the use of Student Body tickets by others than the rightful owners was held. It was decided that students must present their cards at all activities and especially at rec hours. It was decided that from now on passes to athletic games and other inter-school contests will not be issued to visiting teams. -o— LEAGUE SPONSORS TEA The Wednesday afternoon teas in the Women's League room from 2:30 to 3:30 are becoming very popular.

Cummins, acting dean. "We have planned it so that those students who cannot pay their fees on the days scheduled for that purpose may make arrangements with the business office to do so on March 28. After that, however, all students will have to pay late registration fees." Three Remaining Steps It is announced through the dean's office that all students in school must register for the spring quarter on the days set for registration. The three remaining steps in registration after having secured an appointment (which should have been done February 15, 16, and .17) are: 1. See your adviser.

Bond, a crowd of almost one hundred students will leave the front of Edens Hall on the all-school hike to Heather Meadows at Mount Baker next Saturday morning, February 27. -.' " Transportation will be furnished by Russell Nyberg's bus and by private cars. All students who have cars are asked to sign on the main bulletin board, giving the number of passengers they will be able to take at $1 per person. Because of the difficulty in securing enough transportation facilities the number of students who, can, be accommodated is limited. As the first ones to sign will be given to sign up on the main bulletin board as soon as possible. Next Thursday noon, February 25, is absolutely the dead line for signing for the trip. The only charge will be for transportation, costing $1 for the round trip. Lunch will be provided through Edens Hall, and students boarding outside the dormitory may have the same lunch by paying Ruth Neal 25 cents before Thursday noon.

ALTERS ILLINGLY RITES WE STEP to the plate and do a little pinch hitting for Editor Chapman this week. He was caught in the throes of the epidemic that has bulged the absence list until they have had to start abreviating the names thereon, but we hope that he will be back with a vengeance before paper time.

M ALICIOUS ARK AKING We haven't had a chance to bark for quiet in assemblies for a long while, and at the same time we have had to sit about and watch college students, far from ideal college calibre, marking up bulletin boards that do not concern them in the least as far as specific content is considered. We can understand all sorts of happenings, but frankly and most probinglyv we cannot laugh when we see this rare humor of defacing notices. This ^isn't a pulpit column, but there are times when it should preach, and the foolishness of adding an uncongenial name to a well directed notice, presents one . of those "times". Sometimes we wonder, we wonder. Ten years from now local students will still be wondering what lies behind some makeups. —:———-o • Qd Mclntyre compliments Groucho Marx with the following: "Beyond the Alps are more Alps and -God Alps those who Alp themselves."

BBEY ACCENT PPRECIATED Maybe the Abbey Theatre players, who played in Vancouver, B. C , a few weeks ago, didn't use a Brogue half as extreme and complicated as that used here at Normal school in the presentation of "The ^White-headed Boy," an Irish play written by Lennox -Robinson, the director of the Abbey Players, but the 'richness of the speech and the time spent on it by the Drama club cast lent to the play 75 per cent of its historical effect.

He is essentially American—the very air he breathes makes him American and proud of it. A young French journalist says, in speaking of America, "We found a great race pride but no class pride." We are proud of Great American skyscrapers, the tallest in the world; our football and baseball games; our jazz, a by-product of our noisy, fast existence; our trains, hotels, hot dogs, and beefsteaks. It is needless to say that we have been reading "A New Slant on America", by Paul Archard, a young French newspaperman, who came to visit America about two years ago—stayed about five weeks —was astonished, awed, piqued, and disgusted, all at the same time.

Mrs. Burnet read amusing dialogues from "Tomorrow and Tomorrow", "Holidays", produced on the screen, starring Ann Harding, and "Animal Kingdom", which is now playing on Broadway, with Leslie Howard in the lead role. She said that Barry enlisted for a time in the diplomatic service which probably explains his obvious familiarity with the wealthy and pleasure-seeking classes. His witty conversations, though in some instances really pointless, afford much amusement to audiences. "Barry has undoubtedly sacrificed the highest ideals of drama to the influence of popular demand, but," Mrs. Burnet added, "he has more than satisfied this demand, for he has achieved box office successes that most playwrights strive for in vain." James Butler, president, told club club members about the plays produced by the Irish Abbey Players, which a group of Normal students and instructors attended in Vancouver, B. C, last month. "Playboy of the Western World," one of the dramas presented, was the subject for a short talk by Mr. V. H.

FIRST TEAM— Knske, Wonder ............. ...J". Griffin; Manor ......:..... P. Loomis, Manor C Johannes, Co-op ............ G........ Halbert, Co-op ... : G just to start a few arguments, now that the Intramural league is over, the Viking decided to pick an All Star Intramural league team. But in doing this all the players were carefully considered and figured t o o t h e r in combination that would seem most effective. After much dickering, comparing, etc., two Co-op players, two Manor men and one Wonder man was placed on the first five. While two Manor men, two Wonder men, and one Co-op player rated the second five. Co-Op Champions These Co-6p Thugs just walked away with the pennant in the intramural league and that's all there is to it. The Thugs got off to a good start in the first half of the season, winning eight games straight, then when Johannes was graduated to the Varsity things looked tough. But about that time Abbott entered the league and the Co-Op troubles were over. Second half sledding was pretty tough for the champions. Both the Wonders and Manor pressed them hard for.the pennant honors. Manor and Co-Op engaged in one of the toughest games on the Co-Op schedule and oniy some wonderful shots in the closing minutes of the game gave the Thugs a tie with the Manorites, and in the overtime they sank enough goals to win, 36 to 33. Wonders Threaten About the time things were looking nice for the league leaders, along came the Wonder aggregation to throw a nice scare into the Co-Op. The Thugs were trailing at half time by a three-point margin, but a second half rally sunk the threatening Wonders and then* championship a s p i r a t i o n s were squelched. All in all, the Thugs just walked around the league knocking one after another of the contenders down and out. Sixteen games straight isn't so bad. Manor Strong The Viking Manor outfit deserves plenty of credit because they gave the league leaders a scare every time,the two quintets crossed horns in battle. The Manorites tied for second place in the first half of the season with the Wonders. In the second half they won six games and lost one to beat the Wonders out of second place. Looking at the rest of the teams In the league shows some spots of good basketball and some very bad spots. The^ Thespians, last year's threats, were plenty spotty at times but at other times looked like a first division quintet. The Kings had the poorest record in the league and had the doubtful honor of losing 14 games straight. The Wonders cinched third place while the rest of the teams were spread out all along the line. Yes, sir, it was a great season, with Pop Gunn«and Sam Carver chilling some nice games. And what warmed the cockles of Sam's heart was the potential material that is deyelqping through this intramural league. . -o Vanadis Bragi to Have Party March 5 VIKINGS BEAT FAST YAKIMA J. C. TEAM Tuesday's Match Hard Fought Gladson High Scorer gt; DC O 3 A R R L_ A IM s Increasing their lead to a safe margin in the closing minutes of play, the Vikings eked out a 32 to 25 win over the scrapy Yakima Junior College. The game Tuesday evening was one of the closest fought games this season. Throughout the entire game neither team lead by more than two or three points. At half time the Vikings were leading 21-19. Yakima Takes Lead Starting the second half, the Collegians jump into a 24 to 21 lead. The Vikings started clicking at this point and eased into the lead which they were increasing when the final gun sounded. Gladson, Yakima forward, proved to be one of the smoothest players seen here this year. Besides playing a bang-up floor game, he scored 16 points for his night's work. "Mac" Off For the Vikings, Clint McBeath just couldn't hit the size of his hat. He was experiencing what all players go through, "an off night". Johanesen, guard, led the attack for the Normalites, scoring nine points, closely followed by Wahl and Kien-ast with seven points to their credit. Both teams were having a hard time finding the hoop, and especially the Eastern Washington boys, who missed their short shots at the first of the game, repeatedly. W. S. C. System Used For the second time this season the fans have had the chance to see the Washington State system of blocking in use. Cheney, a number of weeks back, used the same style that Van Teel, Yakima mentor, has drilled his men to use. The game Tuesday night was tile next to the last home game for the Vikings, who close their season on the Whatcom court, Saturday, Feb. 17, against the College of Puget Sound.

VIKINGS DEFEAT YAKIMA JUNIOR COLLEGE, 32-25-—Those fans who turned out for the game last Tuesday night had the opportunity of seeing one of the speediest, well-coached teams hi the ininor college" ranks of today. This group of J. C.'s, just out of high school and the majority of them short and slight of weight; gave the Vikings a terrific battle before giving up the ghost in the last ten minutes of play. And we want to give Gladson and Smith, forwards and center for the YJC's a big hand. They were absolutely the backbone of the visitor's attack. Smith called the signals, and his ability to call plays that would invariably terminate with the ball within easy shooting range for Gladson, who made 16 points, made him an outstanding factor in the Yakima team's early bid for victory. The Vikings were distinctly off as to their shooting game and ' - missed many cripples that ordinarily would have been sunk with monotonous regularity. _ oOo INTRAMURAL BASKETBALL PENNANT WON BY CO-OP THUGS—All Hail the Thugs, the Mighty Monarchs of Intramural Basketball! Curley Gross, you have indeed completed a wonderful job in bringing your pets through a rough and stormy fourteen-game schedule. And although your team won all of its games, isn't it a fact that you were kind of worried at times? Well, we could answer for you, Curley, but we won't. The Co-op outfit deserves to win and to them must go the spoils and glory of the victory. The entire team knew how to shoot and how to check, and after all isn't that near perfection in basketball. oOo NEW RULES FORMED — Six Drastic Modifications Are Made in Football Play. The national football rules committee announced six drastic modifications of the playing code early this week. In an .effort to check the "tendencies toward increasing injuries" the committee decided: 1. To resist the formation of the team receiving the kickoff by requiring that five players of the receiving team remain on their 45- yard line until the ball is kicked; either by a placekick, punt or drop-kick. 2. To forbid players on the defense to strike an opponent on the head, neck or face with hand, wrist, forearm or elbow. 3. To liberalize the substitution rule to allow a player withdrawn from the game to re-enter once in any subsequent period. 4. To forbid the use of the flying block or tackle. 5. To make the ball "dead" when any part of the ball carrier's body except his hands or feet touches the ground. 6. To amplify the rule regarding equipment so as to require padding or hand and unyielding substance with felt, for a rubber or other soft padding at least three-eighth of an inch thick. - oOo COUGARS DEFEATED IN TWO GAME SERIES WITH OREGON— Playing the role of underdogs, the University of Oregon hoopmen swept the court clear of W. S. C. Cougars last Friday and Saturday night to take the two-game series by 34-32 and 24-21 scores. TWO FIELD RECORDS FALL— Sexton Beats Brix' Shot-put Mark; Spitz Jumps Higher. Two world records were broken Saturday when 420 of the East's outstanding track and field performers matched skill with a small team from the Los Angeles A. C. in the Boston A.

Mr. Chairman, honorable judges, worthy opponents, friends, fellow students, ladies and gentlemen of the jury, fellow citizens victims of the demon capital, and you punks out here—Greetings. This is the tag end of a Homecoming hangover... I feel rotten, and hoping you are the same, here goes. * * * * In a recent issue of Editor and Publisher, Bible, almanac and Saturday Evening Post of the Fourth Estate, Winifred Black, Hearstian feature writer, attacked colyumnists who use their space to tell about the waffles they had for breakfast, and how well, the syrup on their vest matches their spats. A column, if it is going to amount to anything, should either be a concrete statement of a group of facts, or a personal recording of thoughts and "events... If humor is. to be injected into a colyum, then it is hard to remove the author's personality. "-"s The funniest thing, of the whole thing, in my estimation, however, is that Miss Black's slam is directly against the type of colyums O. O. Mclntyre writes, than whom there is no Hearstier, So, maybe it is just a family quarrel. * . * * , • * . So me and Oscar Odd Mclntyre will sally forth into the world, undaunted, by such . adverse criticism. Shake, Oscar. That remark about the family quarrel reminds me of my favorite joke—old, but to me always funny. An Irishman, walking down a street, spotted a couple of men engaged quite seriously in an expert brand of fisticuffs. Breaking into a run, the Hiber-nian dashed up to the men, and slapping one of'them on the shoulder, cried, "Hey, is this a private foight, or kin inyorie git in?" And while we're on the subject of jokes, there was one pun in a current show which merits .notice. "You are droll, m'seu," said m'- selle. "Oh, yes, I just droll around from place to place." " A mattress factory is a stuffy place. T Former Skagit County Teacher and Missionary at Lashon, China, Held Since the Sixth of October. RANSOM WAS $200,000 Following Seven Years Service in China, She Returned to This Country in 1927 for a Visit. . A'friend of mine came up from Seattle for. homecoming. After looking over this colyum, and not knowing who writes it, he asked., me, quite innocently, "Who writes that flock of guff and nonsense on Page One?'* So, now. you see why I insist on its being anonymous. It has been called to my attention that under the guidance of my predecessors this colyum was.given over to. brief comments concerning school saffairs, and that I have prostituted ; its high aim by allowing it to deter-viorate into a so-called humorous feature. Now, I ask you, who of you who criticize has brought around a t dragon to slay or a maiden to be rescued? Not. one, you—wprds fail me. The fact is, though, the author .can have a serious thought how and' then, although not for long. F'in-stance, if the educational policy of this school is as liberal as some people claim it is, why is attendance at classes and assemblies required, and why are tests given? » Are the students who are so cpmplimented upon their good judg? o^ment in other things not able to • judge for themselves whether they i s h ^ hear a certain tenor chirp, ggpr jj, certain professor lecture bore'-. ipywiiieiy?

Miss Evenson and the Rev. K. N. Tvedt, both of the Lutheran Mission, were being held by the First Red army for ransom amounting to $200,000. Miss Evenson entered the Belling-ham Normal in 1908 and received her life diploma in 1914, after which she returned to Skagit county, taking her first teaching position at Rexville. During the following years, she taught at Cedarhome and in Eastern Washington, and then became an instructor in the Mount Vernon schools. After teaching for about six years she became a missionary and went to China. News of the capture of Miss Even-son by the Chinese bandits was received at the United States legation at Pieping' from Frank Lockhart, consul-general at Hankow. He revealed that the former Mount Vernon woman and the minister were held prisoners by the bandits at Loshan, twenty miles from where the Rev. Nelson was recently captured. Lockhart said he had received a letter from the captives, evidently dictated, stating that they jtiad fallen into the hands of the First Red army, who demanded $200,000 ransom. . The Reds, when entering Southern Honan province, first severed the railway south of Sinyang, they then attacked that city. It was reported that they only succeeded in capturing the railway station outside the Sinyang walls. "They burnr ed numerous houses and large quantities of railway material," reports said, "and kidnaped 100 persons for ransom." .....--• Defenders of Sinyang drove the Reds away before they succeeded in entering,the city, after which the attacking forces spread, in all directions, inaugurating a reign of STODDARD KING, POET AND LECTURER, HERE IN ASSEMBLY TUESDAY An unusual treat is promised for the regular assembly next Tuesday, November 4, when the Normal school is to be the host to the popular speaker, Mr. Stoddard King, who will present his lecture-recital. Mr. King has been writing a poem a day for about eight years, and has written a number of books of verse, among which are "What the Queen Said" and "The Raspberry Tree," published this fall. He estimates that' he has enough lecture material to keep him busy lecturing for the next twenty-six years. Although there is much difference between writing poetry and reciting it before audiences, one of which demands solitude and for the other solitude is far from desirable, Mr. King has been doing both for many years. Following the assembly, Mr. King will appear at the Montague-Mc- Hugh store, where he will autograph his books. Help! Help! Hold on Tight PRE-HALLOWE'EN SPIRIT PRANKS SCARE PROFS.

Car-rell. ' The first debate of the season will be held with Weber College, Ogden, Utah, sdirie time in February. Weber College sends a debate team on a tour of the country every year and possesses a fine record. Last year's Normal team was defeated by the Weber team in a close bat: tie and the Normal squad will probably try to retaliate. Debates will be held with Linfield College, Linfield, Oregon, and Pacific College, Seattle, Washington. The full schedule has not been made, but in all probability several other debates will be held. Tryouts for the team have not been held as yet. No definite date has been set.

Local Relations Club Organized by Carnegie Foundation for the Discussion of Various Problems. Relating details of her trip to Europe last ? summer, Miss Ann Ullin, of the English department, addressed the first meeting of the International Relations Club, October 15, in the Edens Hall club room. Her talk was of an informal style, telling of interesting .experiences in Belgium, Spain, France, and Germany. One of her most vivid observations was the game of piattp, which was played by the lt; Spaniards. It is a combination. of tennis and handball and.is; played entirely by professionals. The game started at 10:30 and ended shortly after midnight. • The International Relations Clubs are organized all over the United States by the Carnegie Foundation. A' general summary of international news is discussed at the meetings, for example, Pacific coast, South American, and European subjects. Miss Amy Heminway Jones of New York is to be the guest speaker at the meetings November 10 and 11. She will discuss the international problems with all the clubs' of the United7 States. The International Relations Club of the Normal school has been organized for four years. At present there are eighteen members. Miss Cummins is the sponsor of the meetings, which are held every, first and third Wednesday at the Edens Hall club room. ; O— — Mr. V. H.

But alas and alack (a lack of what?), one. quiet evening the peace and calm of home was disturbed. The doorbell rang. One of the brothers, hastily anT swered the.bell and found no one there. Racing to the other door of the house he. found—that no one was there!.. Every evening, and sometimes more than once in an evening, the same incident occurred. It got tiresome. Then it started to occur in broad daylight. .There was absolutely no explanation. To add to their uneasiness, the profs discovered-one day that the window screens had been removed from the windows. (The red-headed brother had done it, but remained silent.) Apparently there was no explanation for that, either. Windows and doors were locked and silence reigned until it poured. Of course; about this time the one brave prof and the red-headed brother discovered the mystery. It was just a—well,' just a minute, just a minute. Days passed, and one still, foggy night, with the fogrhorn moaning down at the bay, the brave prof nudged the brother." Immediately, the bell rang. The family, gathered in the same room, all' started up. The most uneasy of the profs rushed to the door in a firm manner. "I intend to put a stop to this nonsense right now," said she. She peered out the door. No one was there. The bell, directly beside her, jangled again. Yow! The prof almost jumped out of her, uh, uh, shoes! She was perturbed then.

A great deal of stress is placed on music here at Normal. Music .that will bring enjoyment to the students and yet be beneficial from the educator's standpoint. It costs the school considerable money to keep up •its schedule of outside artists, as well as music teachers in the school, with the whole viewpoint of giving something which is beneficial to the students. And in spite of it all we have no band. Although the main trend of the whole idea here is to place before the student body a high grade of classical music, what else could instill life and pep into the school like a band? In times.past a musical aggregation for such purposes has occasionally functioned with material that was available and headed by student leaders. As long as we have music instructors in the school, it should be arranged so that they could take charge and coach students until a group could be turned out that would make every' student proud of them. Colleges and high schools all over the country have bands, directed by professionals who can mold a squad that will bring the whole school to a different angle of pep, loyalty, and patriotism for the school. Large colleges have huge bands that are applauded wherever they go, and likewise we could support a comparatively same sized band. It is a live issue and should be acted, on soon. W H A T W O U L D W E D O ? What would we do if, when a big event like Homecoming is dated, we .djcln't have certain reliable students who shoulder the responsibility and jcarry it off with flying colors ? The Homecoming chairman feels that she was unusually fortunate in her choice of assistants this year. There was no mad rush at the last minute. A week before Homecoming, every ievent was planned for fully, and ready to "happen", and when the date arrived, everything went smoothly, with no hitches. Those'to whom much credit is due are: Pauline Larkin, Aileen Hurlbert, Doris Philippi, Katherine Mounter, Colin Campbell, Paul Williams, Carl Rich, and Phyllis Lamoreaux. All other workers, and all .those who were connected with the game in any way, also deserve commendation. It is impossible to mention so many by name. We would also like to express our appreciation to those of the faculty who assisted us, and to the members of the committee who judged the organized house decorations. We feel that the rest of the student body may be proud also of the participation it gave. —Ethel Boynton. ODE TO HOMECOMING Now, years ago, appeared a plague Of limitless proportions; It threatens to devour the earth In most ungainly portions; By causing race dyspepsia, And violent contortions. It manifests its symptoms in A multitude of ways, And it singles out our graduates (With halos all ablaze) To make them have severe attacks On all Homecoming days. gt; They roam like silent spectres thru.. Their Alma Mater's halls Each ghostly figure heaves a sigh As vainly he recalls That things have headed down and down Since he has left these walls They saunter o'er t h e campus here With air proprietorial, They stunt the awed and gazing frosh With visage professorial While all t h e time they're planning some Commotion purgatorial Whenever two such chance to meet There's bound to be a show. The chances are they never spoke While students long ago, But now they slap each other's backs With brotherly gusto. Each grasps the other's hand in glee; Together they exclaim, "It sure is good.to see you, pal; Say, How's the teaching game?" They part; then each one asks himself, "What WAS that yokel's name?" Another symptom makes me feel Complete futilitee. Smart Indian patter has no place I n this festivitee; Bring me the, ears of him who cracks, "Ah-ha, long time, no see!" . These pensive wraiths that haunt our halls From limbo here on leave, And try to pose as reg'lar guys With lots of make-believe, Are only kidding us along. They're fakirs, I perceive. These are t h e symptoms of this plague Which you today observe. Is there no hero here to give These saps what they deserve? Oh, from such cool absurdity, Thy servant, Lord, preserve! MHlAi GIVES iPiluEADiCE Tomorrow night at 8:30 p. m., in the Big Gym the Sophomore class will hold its quarterly: party. The party will be in t he form of a masquerade ball, only using a gypsy idea. That is, everyone will be attired in some form or suggestion of gypsy dress. The Gym will be decorated with maple leaves carrying out the idea of autumn. - O n e of the features of the party will be the presentation of two boxes of the finest, chocolates, one to the best costumed lady and one to the man having the best costume. Another feature will be a gypsy dancer and gypsy fortune tellers.- Those on the committees are: Refreshments, Esther Nordquist; program, Alice Cowgill; decoration, Louise Oberlightner; clean-up, Ed Collier. o— — Inter-Club Council Meeting Wednesday The Inter-club council will meet next Wednesday at four o'clock. Not all of the clubs have appointed representatives at this early date of the school year. The representatives appointed so far are: Earl Hutchins, of the Men's club; Ruby Wallin, of the Tri-C club; Eddie Dyff, of the Men's W club; and Jennie Berg, of the Women's League. Miss Rosene, faculty advisor of the Inter-club council, urges that the rest of the clubs meet and appoint members for the council that they may be recognized as functioning clubs. The Inter-club council acts as a governing body between the clubs and the faculty in a similar way as the Board of Control, with its student representative, governs student affairs. Each club must send a delegate to this council, which body decides upon new measures of rulings for the good of all clubs, as well as to discard rulings gt;which have become obsolete. All old members should revive their order by taking steps toward a representation. — o Centralia (Continued from Page 1) A R R O W S U B S T I T U TE We are watching with interest the birth of the magazine that is to take the place of the former Red Arrow. The Northwest Viking believes that there is a true need for such a magazine in this school, since it will serve to carry on the time-honored tradition of the R e d Arrow, of late sadly neglected. We especially like the policy that has been adopted of inviting contributions from the entire student body. The publication could not other-wise be truly representative of the school. We sincerely hope that the student body will take not only a passive interest in the magazine, but one of active participation, both in the sub-mitting of manuscripts and in the cash name contest which is announced elsewhere in the current issue of the Viking. C O N T E S T S T A R T S N E X T W E EK What is it gonna be? When is it to be published? How much is it going to cost? What is the name of it to be? These are a few of the questions that are being shot in multitudinous numbers at t he harassed staff of the quarterly magazine. To begin to answer these questions, it is going to be a magazine on the same,order as. the ,U. of W. Columns, it will be published oh December 12, • cost. 20c, and the, name?

As a solution to the problem, we are going to institute a contest, with a cash prize, and certain rules as all contests are usually run on a set of fictitious rules, which do not do an awful lot of good, but serve to lend more of an air of competition. Editor Benthein said, in an interview to the Northwest Viking that the particulars and rules of this contest will be announced next -week. Be sure and search through your copy of the Vikings for the rules, and we promise, you that_there will be a substantial.cash^prize to the .person handing in the •;best name.; '/;•: '.•-'• gt;. MEN.

In case it may be of interest to you, the University Fresh trimmed ;St. Martin's 6-0. i . A real old Spu|h.{t^roliria feud between two} cfr'pajf i ^ u i a r football players has been taking place for the past week or so. Look for the black eyes and you can tell who the feudists are, for each is sporting a beautiful "shiner." There are ten men out for basketball now and they are working hard. Ah early start, but competition will be keen this year and we should have a record team. Here's one for you! Dick Hanley, famous coach at Northwestern, played here on the Viking- team in 1912 right alongside of our present coach, Sam Carver. About the same time Sam Carver told Brinkman to warm up.. He took off his sweat shirt and pranced np and down in front of the bench just as Bob Tew's pep band started playing "The Old Gray Mare." It passed over Brinkman's head. (Too deep for him.) How about the bright trumpet player that played taps when the St. Martins halfback got knocked out? Step up and take your bow, Jack. Ellemburg led the Centralia Junior College a merry dance last Saturday by'a large score. Those boys from Ellensburg are plenty iough this year. They have picked p , the Bellingham Vikings, for their Homecoming victims! Can you imagine their embarrassment when We tie those cowboys of theirs up in their home corral? By the way, 'we also have a meeting this afternoon with those birds from Cenr iralia. After that game we can see how we stand for the Ellensburg game. Oh, ho. Did you hear that Noel Flowers has a new nickname? He has gone by the name of Posy for years, but alas, the Posy has faded away and a bright "Passion" flower has taken its place. "The best team St. Martins ever had," said Father Edwards, Ranger coach. And the fact that they beat t h e Vikings by only two scores goes to show that we aren't slouches, either. Defeat doesn't seem so hard when we stop to realize that St. Martins has a lot of star players being primed for the University of Washington and that they are Phelan coached. Take your eyes off the backfield some time and watch Bill Hopkins, our lanky center. Bill is playing a marvelous game and is making nearly fifty per cent of the tackles. On the offense, Bill always takes a man out and sometimes even beats the ends down on a punt. His only fault is that he is from Sedro-Wool-ley and proud of it. Can you imagine it! The streak of red and white from St. Martins that goes by the name of Johannes went to school at W.' S. C. last year, as did one of our players, AT Thompson. Johannes, with his insistent jabbering and crying, got on the nerves of all the Viking squad; especially bothered was his old schoolmate, Al. Finally his patience came to a sudden end and, jumping up, he screamed to Johannes at the top of his voice: "Back to your cage, yah big baboon." •"WWWWWWU^ ENNAJETTICK 5$ 6$ MONTAGUE-M'HUGH SHOE DEPARTMENT * ! • Bellingham Bay 1 Improvement' Cfo RESIDENCE .LOTS \ ^ BUSINESS^ LOTS: ' I •'"'• State at Holly We Solicit ^Yourl -• ,y..;, T R A b E ' " . ; , ' } . ; gt; • / ' Viking Grocery ::^;Vt •.|»«IJ; 7,»0•p ;,;:•H „ig._.h—,; ,;.S.ut-.;V zi;•k•f*WT i * (By Vernon V. Vine) Caught off their guard-by a fast breaking criss-cross which bewildered them, the Normal school Vikings took a 19-to-0 defeat' from Cheney Saturday in the eighth annual football game between the two schools. The game was the major attraction of the Homecoming program. Tricks Sprung Cheney sprung its bag of tricks at the start. Electing to kick off, the Savages held the Vikings for downs in midfield, and took the ball deep into their own territory on the Viking punt. Then began a march down the field, during which Morgan, Henderson and McNew, using criss-cross, spin and power plays, swept through the Viking defense to carry the ball to the goal line. With a touchdown to make and four downs to do it in, the Savages ran up against an unexpectedly strong defense. On the fourth down, after Morgan had plowed through the line for about five yards and but a pair more remained for the score, the Vikings bucked up, and stopped the ball two inches short of a score. A break here made Cheney's first touchdown possible. With a punt from the end zone the only possible play, the Vikings' jinx dogged them and the ball went out only eighteen yards from the goal. Passes Used The Savages uncorked a pair of passes from Morgan to McNew, and the second one carried the ball across for the score. The try for point was blocked. Normal took the ball from the kickoff again, but was held for downs in its own territory, and a blocked; punt on the thirty-yard line gave Cheney the ball in scoring distance. Morgan, stellar back for the visitors, broke away for an end run then which put the ball on the Vikr ings' five yard line and a couple of plays later plunged through for a toughdown. Morgan was unstoppable, and went through center for the extra, point. This put the score at 13 to 0, with the first quarter still in the prime of its youth, but the Vikings were wise to the visitors' antics and the next two and a half quarters found the play moving in the middle of the field, with neither team getting within scoring distance. The ball was beginning to get slick^ and fumbles were occurring frequently. At the same time passes were being heaved by both teams with only indifferent success, and the whole play was rather desultory. The fourth period started in the same way, but the Savages, evidently having an idea of making the victory official, uncorked their trick plays again, with the same results they previously accomplished. Another sweep to the goal line put the Sagebrushers in scoring distance^ and Morgan plunged across for the score. The kick was blocked. Score Evened This evens the series between the two schools, each having won four games. Cheney has a better latter year record than the Vikings, however, winning the last three games straight. Scores were 6 to 0 in 1928 and 7 to 0 in 1929. i Should one drop .into either the fifth or sixth grade rooms of the training school and ask if boys are better athletes than Normal school women, a volley of "yays" would fly back miles per hour, and it's a cinch that the iwomen's aithletic department would take the negative side of the-question. What a wonderful chance for the speech department to foster a debate on the subject, but they were top slow organizing, and Old. King Soccer beat them to the draw. gt; Soccer-will be the medium- for deciding -the5argument, and the time has been0set for 10 o'clock Saturday morning. The soccer field, just adjacent to the present gridiron, is being drained and lined off iri readiness for the battle of the ages.. - Coaches Brag Coaches "Jinny" Carboneau and "Flash" Dixon, who have both ridden to fame on Viking ships, have their men keyed to the highest point and feel that the ball will never see training school territory. Coach "Midge" Horton, P. E. instructor and women's coach, claims that the youngsters haven't a chance with Hall, Pearson, Swick, Goodman, Forest, Harlow, Meredith, Harris, and Anderson carrying out her ideas. The training school is right behind its proteges and praiise for "Dolan, Schalge, Trottd, Randy, Buddy, and Jimmy," is on every lip. W. A. A. Below is a letter from the .Athletic Conference of American College Women, sent to the Women's Athletic Association here at Normal: "Sportswoman page, published monthly. .... / "Newsletter, published three times a year. "The first issue of the Newsletter will be out about December 1. It is dependent upon articles submitted by the individual members for- its success. Special articles for discussion will be assigned to various individuals,, but as a whole, the Newsletter will consist of news reports of all associations which send in material. Your cabin, your parties, awards, points system, intra-murals, outing club, new plans, meetings, all are news to other mem, bers. Will you plan to send in something every month telling of your association activities, even though it's just a short paragraph? "The same type of material can be used for the Sportswoman page.

He explained and answered questions on the curriculum of the Industrial Arts division,, of, £he Washington State Manual, of which he is the author. He made a special plea for "Making shops into laboratories of industry.".;,- :• •' H3gg Mr. and Mrs. Rtfckmick drove over to Yakima Sunday and returned Tuesday evening. • :—0 INT. RELATIONS The first regular meeting of International Relations discussion group will be held on Saturday, November 1, in the Montague-McHugh tea room. As it is necessary for reservations to be made for lunch, all members who can attend the luncheon should telephone Miss Guam, who is in charge of reservations. Owing to a busy schedule at Bellingham Normal this fall, the International Relations Club/has not : - been able to find a suitable date for a meeting. However, JVIiss Nora Bi Cummins, faculty adviser of the club, urges all the members to be thinking about suggestions for programs for the year. Miss Augusta Pragst is to speak at this •;.' meeting.

Cummins attended a conference of the Business and Professional Women's Club in Seattle on Friday and Saturday, October 24 and 25. Discussions at the meeting centered largely around the World Court.

J., needed 20 teachers. 116 graduates of Eastern Normals were given trie 5-hour eligibility examinations in the various branches. Only two made a general average of more than 75 per cent The average grade for the arithmetic section 'was 3L5 per cent: The 10 arithmetic questions are listed oh page 30 of Time, July 6. Answers are given. Try, to get them. The "ratio" seems to be much worse in the East than here, 1 to 57. There were just two men. W.S.N.S. Librarians say that boys and girls both read "Lorria Dobne;" the girls skip all the fighting, the boys all the love making. What a difference a few years will make. W.S.N.S. Baron Irwin cites three causes for the loss of the white man's prestige in India, which probably will not be recovered: 1. Aii Easiern people's victory in the Russo-Japanese war. 2. Using black troops against the •white in the World war. 3. An Indian's instinctive scorn Of a man who shows no mastery of his wife. Now, girls, see what you've done! Evidently the white man is being relieved of his "burden;" which involves a "ratio" that should furnish mental fodder for his moments of deeper contemplation. W.S.N.S. "What Women Want and What They Get" read the Table of Contents. With haste and eager anticipation we turned to page 1323 to find to our utter disgust 'twas only a dry treatise ori politics. — W.S.N.S. — "We want peace. We must have peace. We must have disarmament." From us, that would be just so many sound waves. From the National Council for Prevention of War, it might have more meaning, but not much. From swashbuckling, saber-rattling Mussolini, who is responsible for the utterance, it carries a meaning of world-wide importance if he is sincere. Time and conferences will reveal the measure of bis sincerity. W.S.N.S. A big ship with big guns was in the Bay. Boys in blue uniforms were on it; bat ixd girls; A Big Nor mal school was on the Ml, with many girls and few boys. The girls could go down to the big ship and see where the boys in the blue uniforms sleep* eat* work; play, and get lonesome or blue. But no one showed the boys in the blue uniforms who came up the hill where the girls sleep, eat, work, play, feel happy or blue. Was it because some of the boys in the blue uniforms never had Social Ethics or Psychology I ? But—if the powers that be decided to enter the business of killing boys to relieve unemployment or something* then— The girls on the hill couldn't go down to the big ship and see where the boys in the blue uniform work and play. But the same boys in the same uniforms would be brought up on the hill and shown where the girls work and play. Folk would slap the boys on the back; call them heroes and "great guys,"—men of high fcieals. No one wotald ask if they Had had Social Ethics or Psychol* lt;*yi. -' It's a bit beyond us; but what can we expect from our L Q? ••'• ,,-—^^8#.S.-^~—••;!';;/;;' Sir €!handrasakhant Venkata Raman, the Indian scientist, gays tk*t BrM is a stream of particles which ^ y be called quanta oc photons.

WAUGH DIRECTS On the evenings of July 28 and 29, the Drama club will present "To The Ladies," a fast moving comedy by George Kaufman and Marc Connelly. With littie more than a week left the cast, under the direction of Miss Jennie Waugh, is putting on the last final touches on a play that according to critics is hard to beat. Tickets will be ori sale at the Coop, and students by presenting their Activities tickets and 35 cents may obtain any seat in the house. "Elsie Takes a Hand" The central figures are young Leonard Beebe and his wife; Elsie, a wise little girl from down in Mobile. They live in Nutley, New Jersey. Leonard is just the average young American clerk, who reads all the "Success" stories and "Know Thyself" advertisements in the magazines and believes them, and buys a grape-fruit farm in Florida. Elsie has determined to make him more than that. She has her hands full —even has to make ah after-dinner speech for him—but she does it and the play shows how. Critic's Report "Nothing better than the banquet scenes to be found in American' comedy." The authors have pictured certain absurd phases of American life and in a kindly and diverting manner. They carry the satire just far enough. They are human, kind, and sympathetic to bur hero, the typical American "sucker" who keeps us in a roar of laughter throughout the play. The play met with huge success and a long run on Broadway. It is the type of humor especially pleasing to American temper. In it we find types of businessmen, large and small, with their wives—the latter .really managing the situation without their husbands suspecting the fact. Authors Well Known Marc Connelly and George Kaufman are popular and progressive playwrights. Each has been represented by Broadway successes this past season. Connelly's "Greeri Pastures" needs no new praise! It has become the most taiked of play of the past decade. George Kaufman (collaborating with Moss Mart) has gained fUrther success with a cutting satire on the movies and their making; Critics have rianifeii it the funniest comedy of the season of 1930-31. L1EANBEVER STUDENTS TO CLEAR LIBkARY RECORD SOON Dean Bever requests that students leaving school today heed the notice on the bulletin board regarding the clearing of library records. This notice reads as follows: "All students Who are planning to leave school this week are notified to give their names to Miss Farlow; Circulation department, immediately. No grades will be recorded in the Business office if your library records are not cleared before you leave." • o — TR. SCHOOL CIRCUS STAGED GRADE SCHOOL STUDENTS HOLD ELABORATE ASSEMBLY. James Carrell, formerly of the Speech department, spent Saturday, July 11, fishing on the south fork of the Nooksack River. The roaririg of lions, the stamping of horses, and the rumble of wheels were heard emanating from the auditorium this morning. Such sounds being unusual around this institution, we opened the door arid looked in. Many Clowns There on the stage was a wondrous sight. Clowns were turning summersaults; elephants were stalking riiajestically along; monkeys were skipping about; and in the midst of it all, rode a queen enthroned in a magnificent carriage. it was the parade of the Second grade circus which preceded, the big performance in the "Training school assembly. The Second grade had been working all summer in preparation for this event which was the result of.much reading, woodworking, and art work. Giimore, Too, They gave a very thrilling show. Old Giimore, the lion, roared riiost realistically but his tamer kept hirii under strict control. The gay colors of cages arid trappings caused a longing for pink lemonade arid popcorn. The agile iribnkeys and painted clowns drew roars of laughter from the crowd. The following is the Second grade's own report: "The Second grade had a circus. There was a queen. There were elephants, monkeys, horses, dancing girls, and Giimore, the lion." o Led by Miss Benecia Genther and Mr. L. A. Kibbe, fourteen students climbed Church Mountain last Saturday, July 11. Going to a point five riiiles beyond Glacier, they hiked to the top of the mduntaih, a distance of four miles. 418 ON FOR PETER MfcRENBLUM TO PRESENT PROGRAM IN COMING ASSEMBLY LARGE GROUP COMBS CITY FOR CURIOS AND POINTS OF INTEREST IN CfcUAINt SPfJT, BAND PLAYS VANADIS BRAGI PICNIC HELD AT LAKE SAMISH (Ckmtinued on Page Two) CALENDAR t FRH gt;AY^-July 17. 8 p. m., Rec Hour.

The club is a social organization for the enjoyment of literary, social, dramatic, arid "out-of-door" activities, and is open to all students of tfce school. (By Virginia Carver) At seven o'clock Wednesday morning 418 yawning Normal students draggea1 themselves over the gang piank and onto the S. S. Indianapolis, which was enrbute to Victoria, B. C. Good Weather The trip to Victoria was blessed with excellent weather arid the usual good scenery. Some of the students sought shelter in the inner f ecesses of the ship'; where they indulged in games of cards arid listened to the occasional music of the dance band. Others of the sightseers found themselves deck chairs and parked themselves around the entire ship. A few students made a constant stream to the dining room to complete their early breakfasts. The ship pulled in at the harbor about 10:30 o'clock and 418 calm-bered for the garig plank. Cover Ground By the close of the afternoon nearly the whole of Victoria had been completely covered by one inquiring Normalite or another. They swarned in the antique shops and novelty stores both in Chinatown and the main part of town. Numerous small sales were made and nearly everyone went window shopping. The pastry.shops were in the high rank of popularity; at any rate; a number of students were observed munching all the way from one to ten small cakes as they hurried hither, thither and yon! Perhaps the most interesting part of the entire trip was the sightseeing tour. Approximately 220 persons took the trip and were shown many points of interest about Victoria. They visited Chinatown, with its quaint buildings and fascinating windows; the Butchart Gardens, . taking in elfs, cranes, fountains, and limestone cliffs; the (Continued on Page Two) WILLIAMS GIVES TALK AT MARYSVILLE CLUB Mr. Peter Merenblum, who teaches the violin at the Cornish school in Seattle, will be heard in the assembly next Tuesday, July 21. Once a year, since he has been in Seattle, Mr. Mereriblurii has appeared before the assembly audience here at the Normal school. He came to this country from Russia nearly six years ago, arid has been acclaimed, since then, leading violinist of the Northwest. o YOUNG SPEAKS TO STUDENTS ON INDIA LECTURER VERSED ON TOPIC AFTER LONG RESIDENCE.

The Board was able to reverse the usual state of results by making this year's trip a financial success, which should dispell any talk of abandoning the trip for next year, owing to the money problem. As for the value of the trip to the school as an institution, much can be said. There are many schools in the country that would give plenty to be able to offer such a feature to its members. Lack of a few major events for students to point toward during the course of a quarter will easily lead to lack of co-operation and a "slump" for the school in general; but by having several "big times" in store, interest is worked up and organization is held together. There are several of the Board members who should be complimented for the work managed in getting the trip under way. Particular gratitude should be shown to Mr. E. A . Bond, faculty adviser on the Board, who did much to make the trip a success. Our-advice is "another one next year." o Some are inclined to feel that we have cause to worry over our present situation of depression as much as the German people are worrying over financial trouble there. We are not authorities on the subject, but we would certainly hate to be amid the unrest and uneasiness that would result with the closing of all the banks in this country. ———o •' Students have been asked not to play on the tennis courts before 6 o'clock in the morning, which makes us wonder if any complaints have ever been made concerning students who get up earlier than that to study. _o .We don't quite understand the spirit of fun and the fundamental idea of humor that is incorporated in the antics of some of the Normalites when they take to the habit of marking up the bulletin board notices with self-styled bits of humor and wit. After several years out of grade school we began to have a little trouble in fathoming motives back of free hand drawings, name caricatures, and bright remarks as they appear on public bulletins. Possibly some of that here has resulted from youngsters below the Normal school age, yet sometimes we have occasion to: doubt it. It isn't that we have changed to a policy of setting social dicta for the school, but we do often get a touch of shame in our school pride complexes when we see notices carved up, and we occasionally run across Paul Doumer (standing, with white beard), the thirteenth President of France, and Pierre Laval (right), Premier of the Republic, are shown in their automobile as they left the Elysee Palace, in Paris, following President Doumer's inauguration. They proceeded to the City Hall, where the traditional reception to the President was held. ||J||I': 81||Sif l':£?w:-:;; '$ :;$''??

Varied Sights Persons who did not participate in organized sight-seeing did not fail to enjoy themselves however, for the Crystal Gardens with their many amusements, and the golf course, theaters, and shops offered much enjoyment for all. A few wanderers saw a typical character portrait—an old lady of perhaps fifty or more was seen manipulating a bicycle down the main street and at the same time trying to balance a budle of onions safely under one arm. At six o'clock sharp the wandering Normalites returned to the fold and went through the usual process with the customs officers. Neat Return The trip back proved to be an enjoyable recreation period. After eating a lunch the crowd divided itself between the. decks and the dance floor. The ship arrived at the home port about 9:45 o'clock, and after numerous good-nights and frantic searches for.roommates,..the tired pleasure-seekers returned | p , ; their respective homes. , • ^ •,• r.\:\\ "Criminals and Their Detection" was the subject of a talk given recently to Pelagius Williams' Social Problems and Education class, by Assistant Chief of Police L.

Rain splashes on the walks; and the campus is steeped in a gloom that could be cut with a knife. Here is why: into the classroom dashes the reigning prof with the professional axe in hand; the Y_ guilty bow their heads. The axe is swung with an excellence of aim that shows long experience. Before the victim's death-rattle (rattle-rattle) dies away, the scalp is removed and tied to an already overloaded belt. Finally the professor leans on a gory axe and laughs with -professorial glee. (Heh-heh-heh.) xxxXxxx But this is not the lime for tears and Mailings. It is in the fall, Winter, and spring quarters that the coaches of the various teams Wake from a sound sleep with their own screams ringing in their ears. Visions have come to them; the prof. in Eng. xx has unsheathed the axe and the head of a prize full-back is rolling in the dust; a sharp-shooting forward has gone the way of many another; a sprinter—but why go on? xxxXxxx There were amusements planned for the boat-trippers last Wednesday. Satisfactory as they were, here are a few suggestions for the next trip. For the people who "did the deck" twenty-five times, a nice cross country race would be the thing. For the ruffians who dashed around the corners of the deck-house without giving warning, we suggest a game of soccer without the ball. And for the crook who grabbed the deck chair that we had our eye on, a long, long swim—from Victoria to Bellingham or even farther. xxxXxxx Since we have a Canadian atmosphere with us this week, what has become of the Canadian sprinter, Percy Williams, wjio cleaned up in the Olympic games the last time they were held? Beaten by a freshman at the U. of W. this spring and beaten again by college sprinters in California, Williams does not show many signs of repeating his wins in the coming games. xxxXxxx Long, long ago, it is said, Bellingham State Normal School students got the idea that they wanted to have a crew as part of the athletic program. With this idea in view, a site for a crew house was inspected and selected on the shore of Lake Whatcom. It is said by some, that a site was purchased on the west side of the lake. Has this story any foundation? Does the Student body own land on the lake? What has been done with it? Crew is out of the question, but if there is land on the lake belonging to the students, certainly some use could be made of it. Does anyone know anything about this business? GAMElNEXTWe IN MEN'S BALL RACE SHAFFER'S SIDEWINDERS AND PANSIES WIN LAST NIGHT BY OVERWHELMING SCORES. CHAMPIONSHIP SOON In next to the last round of scheduled play n the second half of the Men's Intramural Basketball league, Shaffer's Sidewinders defeated the Cellarites 45-16, and Walters' Pan-sies defeated Nichols* squad 57-11. The Sidewinders built up most of their lead in the last half, having but a 12-4 lead at the mid-way mark. Cole and Tengenfeldt shared high point honors, each making seven. In the second game of the afternoon, Nichols' team, with but four men, made a fairly good showing: The Pansies ran up a 25-10 lead in the first half. Bolton played a neat game for the losers, making 13 of the 19 points. v Comfort scored highest, with 18 points, and was followed by Howick with 16, and Skotheim with 13. The games were postponed this week due to the friendly contest with the University of Washington. Monday's schedule was worked in last night and Tuesday's games will be played this coming Monday. The feature game of the half will be played at that time between "Spud" Hunnicutt's Netted Gems and Bob Walters' Purple Pansies. If the "potato tossers" win, they will be in undisputed possession of the second half championship, while a win for the Pansies will throw these two teams into a tie and another game will be necessary. The Pansies won the first half by defeating the Gems in the final game, 27-25, in an overtime period. The game was the fastest during the course of the league. The whole second half hinges on! Monday's game and a possible second clash to battle off a tie. If the game and leadership go to Hunnicutt's team, they will enter the three-game play-off starting next Thursday, against Walters'? squad. If the second half should drag out and go to the latter, the final championship will rest there without need of a series. Shaffer's Cellarites; Cole 7 F 3 Cornettj Studebaker 6 F 4 Larson!

Nony Mus. IOI 3QC And that bally breath of cool air was like a heaven sent gift to the sun-burned, the blistered, the lazy, and the hurried! A girl I hate Is Sadie Scrimp She always looks Like a baby blimp! One would be safe in saying that the Belgian schools have one of the most modern systems of education used today. They have made the ancient formal school and curriculum meet the liberal demands of a modern society. Their schools have become a veritable mother to the Belgian children. My first impression upon meeting Monsieur Pits, the director of education in the city, was the extreme courtesy shown me, yet there seemed to be an American spirit of informality in his manners. I noticed these characteristics as they stood out distinctly from the general English way. I was interested to note that the instructors in the Belgian schools are trained in then-own local university or college. The philosophy of Belgian education is bound up in the story „of one man. Monsieur De Croly began some work on defective children about the time Dewey was propounding his theories. The results of his studies was a bielef that "the child learns by doing" and that the curriculum can be built around the child and his needs. So he found five general needs of life —nourishment, self protection, self protection from danger, activity for oneself and society, and recreation —arburlbi which he built a unified curriculum. The curriculum thus becomes standardized in form, but developes itself with the needs of the child. He attains his goal in education through the mediums of observation, association of ideas, concrete expressions (modeling, etc.), and abstract ideas (reading, etc.) The totality of the be Croly system becomes, I believe, one of the most effective methods of educating the child to our modern complex civilization. The curriculum becomes a fused endeavor in which we speak of many things but attain an 'oriented point of view,' to use a translated expression. The schools are very well equipped. In fact the equipment reflects the industrious nature of these,-peoples. Cleanliness is demanded of ail children. Any child may be sent at any time to the shower baths if he is found to be the least uncleanly. Good athletic equipment is provided. The green plants on the ledge, neatly painted rooms, well built school desks, and blackboards, the moving picture machine, infirmary, music room, cafeteria, etc., all show the wealth and progressiveness of the Belgian schools. I was interested in having explained to me the way in which the schools meet modern industrial conditions. As the majority 6f niotHiers arid fathers are both wage eSrfifers there must be some means of taking care of their children. Thus it is not uncommon to see a child come to school St seveh m the morning and leave at seven in the evening. T%e principal in the Jules Anspach school put it to me this way, "We owe a moral duty to these children as well as an educational one.'r The; day is almost here when #6 may / hale a man Named Sam McCee, He always says, "Long time, no see!" And wouldn't you likes to try but some new murder methods oh the fellow who keeps out the library book you've got to have, to make his blasted typewriter stand higher. o—b—o Speaking of libraries—isn't it funny how many times., one ..can ramsack the whole thing completely only to find that, "Oh, Yes! that book was taken out three nights agbt" o—O—o Rome wasn't built in a day, but that doesnt mean that the tennis beginners are particularly., encouraged when they keep swatting vainly at the gray oval and get it either a foot from the old feet, or put it gently over the fence! o—O—d ..:.Oh! I say, Mr. Ford, I'm really extremely honest, arid ihy father runs a bank and I've got a rich un-cie and everything—couldn't you give me credit on a cocoanut covered bar? (Continued from Page One) And the iast time we wrote home for money father calmly told us that the cow had died and that the chickens had gone on a strike and that sudden rairi had ruined his hay, and that we'd have to commit ourselves to hard labor. Now, fancy that! 6—O—o And we felt particularly patriotic the other day, so we visited the bat-tleship. We wandered around among clusters of fluttering femininity, as they draped themselves gracefully over the ck, the f chairs, the anchor, and the t6§ mast. We decided to give-.our roommate vocal lessons to cultivate his voice or a revolver with which he could completely plough it under. He spent most of his time last night trying to hit the high seas (cs) arid gently singing, "Me, me, me, me!" in our ear! o—O—o Rain was all right for a little while but old man sunshine looked pretty good to us after the recent deluge! o—O—o Lend me a ten, thou scurvy knave, or I shall tell yon professor to change my seat when the big test comes along, and thou wilt be forced to either turn thyself around and copy the paper of another of thy fellow-sufferers or Write home to Pa for more money to buy train fare! o—O—o Someone asked us what was the best thing to put in cake to make it taste like the ones our mother used to make. We answered that we thought our teeth would be about the best! Silly, of course, but Oh! —How true, my dear, how very true! o—O—o * Well, Olive Oil! and other such expressions of farewell! And if the the nasty bear doesn't eat up our pens, pencils, and typewriters, we'll tell you the story about Unkle Wig-gly and the big bold Wolf in the next edition! _ o •— once again on our serious questioning. •', Dr. Wells told us that he was born and raised in Iowa, "where the tall corn grows/' arid short men, tod; and that he graduated from the high school in SigOurhey. * He graduated froiri the Uriiver^y of Iowa in i§21; received his lector's degree iri '28; and his masters degree from Wisconsin in 'fc7. yHe comes to us from Oregon State lt;|pi-i leges, where he is professor of Spe^ift( and director of the Speech • 'Ci|8$bi When asked about his hobby;?:Be told us that he was. most interested in fishing, adding, "Whe#|l faave any leisure hours to spend*:! spend them fishing—in my mind" that sport even surpasses goif!"

Part In .Conference At Madison, Wisconsin Hats off to various school offi-cials, both student and otherwise, who in the last year have considerably changed the debt situation. Several of the departments have "been taken "out of the fire and into the kettle", while other debts have been materially reduced. —W. S. N. S.——r And not to show any partiality, - but everyone likes to ..brag about that which is closest to "home", we compliment our present Business Manager. In a little longer than three quarters, he has changed the thousand and some odd dollar debt t o three hundred and forty-two dollars on the other side of the ledger. W. S. N. S. Quite often outsiders play on the local tennis courts. As long as there is room, no harm is done, but Normal students waiting to get on have a perfect right to ask any others to ..^vacate immediately. W. S. N. S. Dr. Harry V. Masters, of the Research Department, while doing graduate work at Iowa, worked with another person on a spelling project... They., found., approximately 450,000,000 ways of spelling the word "circumference." Each iof these words it can be pronounced phonetically correct. Hence, there is no reason for misspelling that -word .from now on. W. S. N. S. — We just finished browsing through .an interesting pamphlet entitled "What the Colleges Are Doing'... It i s published by Ginn and Company, and contains various articles on college, picked at random. Two were particularly interesting to us. W. S. N. S. The first told of the writer having •over a thousand acquaintances. Out of these a dozen were happy, and over half of the happy ones had Jiever gone as far as high school. In , other words, education to him does not bring happiness. —W. S. N. S. The other gave "Ten Marks of an Educated Man", as follows: He keeps his mind open on all questions until the evidence is in. He listens to the man he knows. He never laughs at new iedas. He cross-examines his day-dreams. He knows his strong point and plays it. He knows the value of good habits and how to form them. He knows when not to think and when to call in the expert to think for him. You can't sell him magic. He lives the forward, outward looking life. He cultivates a love of the beautiful. W. S. N. S . - . ' I n a letter published this week, an Easterner calls attention to the condition of our lawn and the absence of "Keep Off Grass" signs. We have heard from many sources that, although much is said regarding the negligence of Normalites, still the walking on the grass is comparatively minus. •— o- NEW CASH1 SYSTEM PROVES SUCCESSFUL The new ruling at the cafeteria which bans charge accounts has proven a success. Beginning Monday, the first day of the spring quarter, the system of "cash only" was established. This was found necessary because of the time expended in keeping books for the many small amounts charged. Miss Countryman reports that there has been no decrease in the number of students lunching at the cafeteria, and that .not one has asked for a charge since the ruling, went into effect. She considers this a commendable attitude of co-operation on the part of • the student ••.body..-. .,'"•."' -.:',';•-iThe. staff of the cafeteria workers 'will remain the same%as last quarter, with the addition of Virginia i^Black;: who is takmgCthe place of ^Eiose ;Baskett. Pres. C. H. Fisher left for the East this week to take part in a conference of the faculties of the Wisconsin State Teachers College. This conference will be held at Madison, Wisconsin, on April 21 and 22. Thisf conference is held once in two years and includes all the teachers of the ten teacher-training institutions in the state. President Fisher will meet with the presidents of the teachers' colleges for a discussion of administrative problems. He will also meet with librarians on the functions of a library in teacher training institutions. At the general session of all the members of the conference, President Fisher is on the program to discuss the subject: "The Reconstruction of Curricula in Teacher Training Institutions with a Generous Provision for a Liberal Education, Especially in the Early Years." o _ F, MEN'S ORGANIZATION IN OBTAINING ROOM Club Room Becomes a Reality By Faculty's Unanimous Vote At Tuesday's Special Meeting. FURNITURE INCLUDED Formal Dedication To Take Place Monday, at 13:30, Dean Marquis Acting As Master of Ceremonies. SEATTLE MUSICIANS TO PLAY TUESDAY DURING ASSEMBLY Alice Williams Sherman, Elizabeth Reeves, and Hazel Hammer Hill Members of Widely-Known Trio. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED Tuesday morning, April 22, the regular assembly hour will be devoted to a musical program by the Musical Artist Trio of Seattle. This trio is composed of well known musicians who have received nationwide recognition for their ability as ensemble artists. Alice Williams Sherman, violinist, is a favorite with audiences wherever she appears. Elizabeth Reeves, .violoncellist, is an artist pupil of George Kirschner, Hazel Hammer Hill, pianist, is widely , known throughout the Northwest as a pianist and teacher. The trio comes highly recommended, and as their repertoire includes selections from the classics and the modern composers, as well as shorter compositions, the program should please the entire audience. No longer will the men of the school have to wander around like the man without a country, nor will they have to be bothered with women listening in on their conversations, nor will they have to lean against the walls or hit for one of the nearby lunch abodes for privacy, for they now have a room all their own. After seeking a room since early last quarter, the Men's Club sent a committeee to confer with President Fisher in regards to getting a room. At last Tuesday's Faculty meeting President Fisher brought up the question. It was decided that the Faculty room just across from the registrar's office, or otherwise designated as Room 112, should be given to the men. On Tuesday of next week at 12:30, there will be held in the main hall, the dedication ceremonies of the Club Room. Dean Marquis will be the speaker of the hour and music v/ill be furnished by the Pep Club band. All students are invited to attend. "As this is an event of the hour for the men," Charles Dewey, president of the Men's Club, says, "I wish to extend to those who made this possible, the gratitude and co-operation of the men's organization." LEAGUE ELECTION HELD THIS MORNING Interest in Election Slow to Develop, Gained Momentum As Time for Balloting Arrived. Thirty-Eight Students Feel Committee's Axe Thirty-eight students felt a pang of regret this week as the sharp' axe of the Attendance Committee cut deeply into their meagre store of credits. Thirty-one unfortunates were cut one credit; six were cut two credits, and one poor student lost three hours when his record came under the^committee's blade. These people were held victims of their own conduct and were punished by the law of the school which might to be said to state, "For fifteen absences from all classes the credit supply of a student will have sliced from it one- hour of credit, etc." According to committee mem-4 bers, the guillotine will be rolled out and set up again next quarter. -—:—•—o- —" MAD AUTO RUNS WILD; DENTS TEACHER'S CAR A little excitement was added to the atmosphere last Sunday evening when a restless Dodge car, belonging to a James Moody, and anchored i n f front o f Ragan Hall, slipped from its moorings and aimlessly drifted down the hill. It struck a reef in the form of Miss Karigley's Star car, which was at the time parked in front of Buss-ing's. Both cars were damaged, Miss Kangley's car getting the worse treatment. As both of the cars were unoccupied, no one was hurt. The accident called to mind the well-remembered one of several years back when Milton Field, a Normal student; was permanently injured by a runaway auto.

RARE SCARECROW FOR JAYWALKERS A scientific expedition composed presumably of Normal students, left the campus early Tuesday evening in search of a rare specimen of 'bird. They, with the aid of a little salt, were able to cage this strange animal. It falls under the owl classification, but is white in color.' The personnel of the.expedition realize the policing qualities of this strange winged object, and likewise realized the trouble the grounds committee is having with "jaywalkers." Consequently, they turned it loose on the lawn between Edens Hall and the Administration Building.

And jhat those who join the club of defeated candidates won't feel embarrassed for it is a compliment even to be placed on the ballot. It shows that the per-son is somewhat outstanding and that he has friends pulling for him Once again we willsee the election fade away, but the elected will remain before the eyes of the school for some time to com. , LYLE SUMMERS The student body will be fortunate if it succeeds this morning m elevating to the position of student body president a student who will serve as faithfully and as well as has Lyle Summers, during the past four quarters. .. Mr. Summers, during his tenure of office, has been unusually successful in interpreting the opinion of the student body, and m giving the people of the school the kind of an administration which they expected of The handling of student affairs and the working out of difficulties which arise during the school year requires more patience and ability than may be apparent, and Mr. Summers should be congratulated on the straightforward, efficient manner in which his office has been executed. ——o— — V I K I N G SCOOPED The • Northwest Viking was scooped this week by no less a newspaper than the Bellingham Herald. A Herald representative, right under the noses of our Viking reporters, learned the story of "Laddie Boy's Faithfulness," and made an excellent feature story out of it. The Herald was kind enough, however, to allow us to use their cut. We appreciate the courtesy of the Herald in allowing us^ to use material of this kind. We trust, however, that the next "scoop" that is made will be he other way around. o ^ C A F E T E R I A BREAKFASTS A student opinion under the signature of J. W. brought up an issue last week which should receive the consideration of all of the people who take their meals at Edens Hall. N A n investigation reveals that between one-third and one-half of the people who eat at the school dormitory pay four dollars a month for the privilege of checking "Breakfast, Edens Hall" on the registration slip, which is necessary, by the way, if one is to be enrolled as a student in good standing. Whereas from twenty-four to twenty-five tables are set for the noon and evening meals, only thirteen or fourteen are required to accommodate the breakfasting students. The inference, obviously, is that a large minority of the dormitory boarders either go without breakfast or buy their morning meal at one of the local lunch counters. As pointed out in J. W.'s article, the main objection to breakfast at the dormitory is this, that the hour of serving, 7:15, "is too early for many people who do not have 8 o'clock classes, and to whom the dormitory is not easily accessible. J. W. proposes that breakfast be served in cafeteria style from 7:15 to 8:30. The Viking believes that Normal students, to enjoy good health, Well, here y'are, studes. Oy, yoy! 'tis a miserable night; As we scribble this the wind hisses round the corner in careless, dismal sighs, and the rain drips from the eaves in dreamy monotony. A miserable night, and it matches our mood exactly, but then we should worry. It'd certainly be a tired old world if the sun shone all the time; and also, the thought of a life that is nothing but happiness from beginning to end is, to us, almost tragic in its suggestion of mental poverty. * » * GREAT MINDS RUN IN" THE SAME CHANNELS—AS DO SMALL ONES. *. * * POME (Unfinished) leaves are sprouting fast and thick Upon the trees.

QUOTATION '•Well, just from lookin' around and observing things, I've come to the conclusion that what I have often heard the women say is right. These men are the bunk!

I wonder if it would interest you to know how an Easterner admires your grounds? That you have had so' much life there all winter is amazing to us who have seen bare, bleak campuses in January. That your lawn is green and soft and smooth the year 'round without little signs saying "Keep Off the Grass," is another surprise. I've climbed that hill many a time just to see whether I might not surprise some such sign around somewhere. But no! Either you have a wonderful gardener that can repair damage as fast as it occurs, or else you have a still more wonderful student body that makes "please keep to the walks' signs unnecessary. I'd like to know the secret of your lawn's perfection. Many an' Eastern gardener tears his hair, by night, uses strong language by day, and still doesn't have a nice lawn the year round. I have talked with your head gardener— the one who wears Ms hat turned up in front.-Is not that he?— There is a white-flowered bush between the Normal building and the should eat a light breakfast every morning, and that an arrangement library that has blossomed out this should be made so that students would not have to buy one meal a day ' w e e k w i t h f i v e s m a U w n i t e baSs gt; off the campus with money needed for other things. It believes that a tied to the branches. This is the re-arrangement of the kitchen schedule could be made to take care of the service and the necessary cleaning up and dishwashing, and a change in the breakfast menu be made if it is necessary to adapt it to cafeteria service. This could no doubt be done without inconveniencing the kitchen crew, or throwing any of the waitresses out of employment. In fairness to the people who must pay for three meals a day whether they eat them or not, this change should be made, and it would no doubt react very favorably in terms of student economy, and in student efficiency in the 10 and I 1 o'clock classes.

Mrs. Collett entertained with a dinner at the Willows in honor of Mrs. J. Yoes. Her guests were Miss Adele Jones, Mrs. More, and Mrs. Yqes. ' y ';;, A group of the girls from Collett court spent Sunday out at the beginning of a scientific experiment which, according to Miss Piatt, will prove a valuable addition to the study of botany. The common name of the plant is flowering currant, and this' bush is the only one known to be white, others all having red flowers. The experiment is being conducted by Miss Piatt and the botany class to find whether the white plant is a new .variety or merely a freak. The bags are used to prevent the bees from cross-pollinating the flowers not already budded with the red flowering currant just around the corner. When the flower bags are budded, they will be self pollinated, tagged, and the seeds gathered in the fall. After a wait of several years for the seeds to be planted, to grow and blossom, t h e ' investigators expect to be rewarded in discovering by the color of the new blossom whether or not our white flowering currant bush is a freak.

There were many ;great offensive machines featuring a score of brilliant shooters. But there was a definite scarcity of stel- .; Jar defensive players, especially in contrast to the large number of .clever forwards and centers. ' First Teams Forward, Hyatt, Pittsburgh. Forward, F.

The Viking hopes for a successful baseball season this year seems • t o depend a great deal on the ability of the men to hit the old apple rather than to check the offensive play of the team. The batting of some.of the players seems to be noteworthy even at this early date. Pitching is again the weakest position on the squad. Several men have been working out for the position. The coach is spending a lot of time with them and believes that it is possible to have a good battery by the time the season gets underway. _ _o For the first time in years the Frosh did it! The result of the in-terclass track meet was much to our disappointment in favor of t he Frosh, but I think it would have "been a much different story if only points had been given for the first three places instead of the first five. The Sophomores copped more first places than the Frosh, but the. Frosh had so many entrants that the third, fourth and fifth places soon totaled up to a huge score and offset the firsts and seconds garnered by the Sophomores. We admit our defeat though and congratulate the Frosh on their victory and hope they repeat it in the year 1931. PRES. FISHER PITCHES Intramural baseball was officially opened last Wednesday afternoon, when President Fisher and Sam Carver acting as the battery, struck the first batter out one, two, three, just like that. The batter was none other than our own Dean Bever. o U. OF W. DUPLICATES FEAT OF OLD Inter-collegiate crew racing commenced last week when the University of Washington and University of California crews met on the Seattle estuary. The Washington rowing fleet duplicated its feat of 1926 to nose out victory in the three-mile varsity race and easily win t he Junior varsity and Freshman events from the California Bears. It was t he first victory of the varsity for four years. Prom the- indications Washington will be well represented at the national meet this year. It seems like days of old for Washington to win crew races. ,-• o •The Vikings varsity horsehide maulers seem to be on their way to a successful season. With a fairly good infield, a group of hard hitting outfielders and about two more weeks of intensive training the Vikings will be in quest of a champion- *" ship title. — lt;*— Helen Purcell was confined to the Isolation Hospital last week with a bad case of sore throat. ' After training in the first day of the Interclass track meet, the Frosh came back Friday to grab most of the points and defeat the Sophomores 100 to 78VS. At t he end of Thursday's events the Sophs had a 7-point vlead, but in their favorite events, the following day, the Freshmen had little trouble in forging ahead. Only in the 100-yard dash and the high jump did the upper classmen have an advantage, while the Frosh took large numbers of points in the 440, the 880, the javelin, and t he hurdles. Times and distances for the events were comparatively slow, with past Normal records, and considerable improvement will have to be shown. Quick's time in the 88-yard run was fair, as was Falkner's in the 440. Cole, with 21 points, and Dixon with 19, were high-point men of the meet Tomorrow the Vikings will engage in a meet with'' Whatcom High school, and possibly with the Mount Vernon Junior college. The High, school boys have a .strong squad and will furnish the Vikings with plenty of opposition. Summary The summary for the meet was as follows: 100-yard dash—Dixon (S), Emory (F), Jackson (S); time, 11:1. - lOOryard dash—Cole (S), Falkner (F), Gunn (S); time, 11. 220-yard dash—Cole (S), Duyff (F), Stearns (F), Jackson (S); time 25 seconds. 44-yard dash—Falkner (F), Quick (F), Lovegren (F), Stearns (F), Hansen (S); time, 57.6. 880-yard run—Quick (F), Lovegren (F), Hanson (S), Abshire (S), Eacrett (F); time, 2:16.

Several telephone calls come, stating that the supposed dead man has been seen heading in the direction of his home. Finally, the hysterical .Til declares that she sees him approaching. A knock is heard upon the door. Bane, thinking it to be Weatherburnys ghost, confesses to the killing, a t which point the pros- •ecuting attorney enters and arrests him.

ARCHITECTURE TOPIC OF ASSEMBLY TALK Prof. Herman Pleases Assembly . With Illustrated Lecture On the History of Architecture. Professor A. P. Herrman, of the Department of Agriculture of the University of Washington, was a speaker before the student body Tuesday morning, April 15. His appearance here was sponsored by the Washington chapter of the American Society of Architects. The subject of Professor Herr-man's discussion concerned achitect-ural appreciation. He gave a brief resume of the history of architecture, stating that it started probably about 5,000 B. C. somewhere in Egypt. "Architecture is crystallized history," the speaker declared. He also stated that the climate of a country, its social conditions, and its militaristic attitude, were reflected in its architecture. _ o FILM IS SHOWN IN TRAINING ASSEMBLY Training School to Take Active Part In Tulip Festival Parade— To Be Four Classes of Floats. The Trainng School assembly Friday morning was devoted to a motion picture film of the life of the toad. The film gave the complete cycle of the ordinary garden variety of toad, and also the tree toad. Many interesting glimpses into the intimate life of the toad were given, and also some fascinating pictures of tadpoles. After seeing this film, showing the harmless existence of these small animals and the positive aid Book-Mending Exhibit and Picture Display LIBRARY The exhibit in the lower hail of the Library is intended to show how material may be accumulated and cared for in a library or one's personal collection. Books have a habit of becoming shabby. It is quite possible to mend them so that they may be used for a long time if one knows how to buy the proper material and how to use it. Students have been given the opportunity this year to learn how to do various kinds of mending and the results, have been most satisfactory. Miss George, head of the Cataloging department, has generously given many hours of instruction each week to students. In return for this instruction, the students have donated a great deal of work which is very valuable to the Library. Pamphlets are somewhat of a problem to everyone. Some of the most useful and up-to-date information is published in pamphlet form and much of it is well-worth pre* serving in a permanent collection. There are many inexpensive ways to bind pamphlet material and several such binders are shown in the exhibit. They are well worth studying. A picture collection is very useful to a teacher—also to the general public. A valuable collection may be built up by anyone who has foresight and imagination. Practically all of the pictures in the exhibit were cut from magazines and advertisements. The mounts are not expensive. Eventually the mounted pictures will be filed under subject and loaned for short periods of time. The pictures too small to be mounted .can be used in scrapbooks. Miss George suggests making a list of subjects that will be useful in your teaching or other, work. Then as you get pictures illustrating these subjects, put them into labeled envelopes. When you have a sufficient number on any subject mount them in the scrapbook. The books shown in the exhibit cost only ten cents each. which they render us in the destruction of insects, we cannot but have some degree of respect for them, and grant that they have a right to live. With the news that there is to be a Tulip Festival after all this year, the Training school received instructions concerning the Juvenile parade, in which they are expected to take an active part. Committees are to be formed and plans will soon be on foot to make a creditable exhibition of the floats made by members of the Training school. There are to be four classes of floats—the Small Float, the Bir cycle Division, the Comic Division, arid the Pet Division, and some most interesting and valuable prizes amounting to $300 are to be awarded the best entries.

A man is only happy in subordination to his work. A dog finds his only joy in subordination to a man. On any day one may see right on our Normal campus one of the happiest dogs in the world. Laddie Boy is his name, and for nearly four years he has played the part of faithful' servant to George Dack, Normal head gardener. On over 1,200 days he has carried a warm noonday lunch four blocks to find Dack and give it to him. That he may not be molested by other dogs, some member of the family usually accompanies Laddie Boy on his trip. On only one day has he failed his duty. Nothing definite is known about his reasons for this failure, George Dack and Laddie Boy but there are certain vague rumors of. "romance," "springtime," "love," etc., connected with- it. As Laddie Boy is faithful in the bringing of the lunch, so is he faithful in all things. When the Dack family goes to the beach, he is the self-appointed life-guard for the children. When Dack reaches home after his day's work, Laddie Boy brings his slippers and the evening papers at a mere word from him. Day and night, year in and year out, he is a faithful, worshiping servant. And he is happy! If you doubt it, look him over carefully at your next opportunity and try to pick out signs of gloom, despondency, or patient suffering in his attitude. Just try! . - Word has been received that Miss Clara Reynolds, who is now enrolled in an art course at the University of Washington, has had the honor of having a number of her art works placed on exhibition. One of them is to be presented at an exhibit in California and five others are to be shown in the art exhibition which is to take place at the University.

II W A S H I N G T O N S T A T E N O R M A L SCHOOL, B E L L I N G H A M , W A S H I N G T ON Friday, December 8, 1933 Rickerson New Board Uniform Sweaters for Yell Staff '.":"'• To Be Chosen; Committee Will Meet DORNBLUT AGAIN EDITOR Salary of Business Manager May Be Increased Ten applications for the position ' of secretary of the Board of Control were considered at a board meeting Monday. Prom the ten aspirants for the job, HarriefT Rickerson was elected. The: : new secretary, who succeeds the present incumbent, Vernon Leatha, will begin her duties next quarter. The swarm of ten office seekers included Richard New-lin, Richard Stearns, Harriet Rickerson, John Lensrud, Grace Hess, Victor Dickinson, Esther Knudsen, Wilfred Gunderson, Robert Hartley and Marvin Allyn. The proposal to establish a new uniform sweater for the yell staff resulted in the appointment of a committee to confer with Sam Carver. This committee, which will decide t h e color and design of the new uniform, is composed x gt;f Dr. Bond and Otto Pinley. Probable choice points to a blue sweater with a white design. I n addition to the election of board of control secretary, Julius Dornblut was re-elected editor of the Northwest Viking for the winter quarter and Francis Fisher was reelected to the office of business manager. Dornblut, who is the pres ent editor, succeeded Pat Allan early this semester when Allan was forced to leave school on account of ill health. At that time Fisher was elected to fill the office of business manager, which Dornblut left to become/; editor. , Mrs. Ruth Burnet, faculty adviser for the Viking, recommended that the Board of Control increase the percentage salary ~6f the" business manager. The present salary of that office allows the business manager 20 per cent of the advertising receipts. This percentage has been found to be insufficient, making it advisable to raise the percentage. Acting on a similar proposal, the motion was passed that John Christy, student prexy, meet with Francis Fisher to discuss the sale of advertisements and the possibility of establishing a sliding scale on the percentage of advertising receipts. This would allow the manager a greater percentage for an increase in ad space, thus stimulating the business staff and at the same time providing an increased salary. •• •• gt; ' o President Fair Inspects School To Give Rating Teachers' College Association Representative Conducts Inspection Club Conference Held at Seattle Julius Dornblut, Jr., was a delegate from the Bellingham Normal to the annual International Relations conference which was held last Friday and Saturday at the University of Washington. About 100 students from Washington and other Northwest colleges were present. The conference was o f f i c i a l ly opened by President Hugo Winken-werder on Friday morning. The conference discussed present-day problems which affect the international affairs and suggested methods designed to better existing relations. Saturday evening was open to discussions and questions concerning the round-table discus sioris held Friday. O !-. Inspection of the Bellingham Normal school for the purpose of giving it accreditation in the American Association of State Teachers' Colleges was held Monday and Tuesday of this week. President Eugene Fair of the State Teachers' college of Kirksville, Missouri, who is a member of the accrediting committee of that organization, conducted the inspection. President C. H. Fisher said that until the school was able to grant a degree he had not asked for accreditation as the institution would be rated in the second class. He now hopes for a first class rating for the school. Several weeks ago a detailed report of the school was prepared and sent to President Fair in advance of his inspection trip. President Fair checked against this report in his survey this week. His inspection was made on the following items: Requirements for graduate preparation of the faculty, teaching load of the faculty, training school facilities, the organization of the curricula, student health and living conditions, library, laboratory, shop equipment, and the location construction, and care of the buildings and campus. President Fair's report and the school's rating will be received here. o Jobless Teachers To be Given Aid Roosevelt Proclaims Dry Repeal President Hopes American People Will Use Judgment with Liquors After Dry Law Is Thing of the Past New Plan Proposed by Council of Educational Relief t By Calista Simonds "I trust in the good sense of the American people that they will not bring upon themselves the curse of excessive use of intoxicating liquors to the detriment of health, morals, and social integrity", thus does President Franklin D. Roosevelt, in offi-cially proclaiming prohibition repeal, place upon, the individual citizens the success or failure of this phase of the "new deal". The signing of this repeal proclamation sees the end of a "noble experiment". . Although this experiment has often been viewed as a failure in the eyes of many, others see in it only a step forward, if the evils of pre-prohibition days have been successfully eliminated and existing evils of prohibtion can be eradicated. When approached as to his reaction to the president's proclamation, President C. H. Fisher said, "It appears to me to be a sane and sensible statement, which ought to meet with generous response from the public." Dean James Bever, dealing with the policies embraced in the pro clamation, agreed wiUi the president's attitude regarding the gov ernment's authority to prohibit the importation of intoxicating liquors into states not favoring the repeal amendment. He expressed his misgiving!, however, toward taxation of liquor in order to rescind special taxes which had been levied to finance public works. "I fear," he stated, "that if this policy is carried out to any great extent, we will still retain prohibition's greatest evil— the bootlegger." Taking the proclamation as a whole, Miss Lucy V.

This was announced Tuesday by the county emergency education relief council headed by Dr. N. D. Sho-walter, state superintendent of public instruction, and Charles F. Ernst, state relief director. The council consists of Mrs. Beryle J. Bruff, county superintendent of schools; C. P. Shangle, superintendent of Bellingham schools; Dr. C. H. Fisher, president of the Bellingham Normal school; Dr. C. C. Hills, of Custer, and Miss Harriet Gruger. These educators hope to aid some of these jobless teachers by using some of the monthly educational budget for the state, as filed at Washington, D. C, which is waiting approval. Over two dozen teachers have already applied for positions, although no person has evinced interest in this opportunity to obtain an education without any cost. Shangle says he will take up with the city board of educaton the question of supplies and rooms, since the federal funds are to go to wages only. o Newswriting Classes Deliver Reports On Leading Newspapers Reports on various . papers and books which the students in the newswriting class have been reading throughout the quarter are being carried on this week. The Northwest Viking subscribes for such well known papers as the London Times, the New York Herald Tribune, the Spokane Spokesman Review, the Christian S c i e n c e Monitor, the Washington Post, the New York Sun, and the Emporia Gazette. o Party Held By Club In Y. W. Social Hall Raymond Sulkosky has been chosen by the members of the 1933 football team to be presented with the inspirational trophy donated by the Northwest Viking. It will be presented sometime during the next week when the trophy, a silver football mounted on a stand, arrives from the company in Chicago. Rated as one of the outstand ing players to have played for this school, Sul kosky graduates this year with an enviable record behind him. P l a y i n g all four y e a r s at Puyallup h i gh Suixosky school he was known to tie one of the worst threats of the valley. After graduating from high school he played for the Ta-coma Athletic club and then for the College of Puget Sound, where he received honorable mention for the Northwest conference all-star team his first year. The following year he was an all-conference guard. Sulkosky was captain of last year's team and has left a record in football at this school that can be looked on as nothing less than inspirational. Curtains Being Made For New Club House By Triangle Members Christmas Seals Help Community Death Rate Is Reduced Because of Christmas Seals Members of the Blue Triangle club met Wednesday evening, December 10, at the home of Theona Flick to sew curtains for their new club house. The girls are working on their house constantly and hope to have it ready to move into by the first of January. Mr. Ruckmick's boys are helping the girls make over the little house and have undertaken the work as one of their projects. Molly Pearl, president of the Blue Triangle club, said there will be no more meetings until the first of the year. Have you seen the new Christmas tuberculosis seals this year? They are red with black Yuletide figures on them and they • convey a big hearty Christmas greeting to every body. The Christmas seal sale started this year, December 1, and has opened with considerable promise. Already tuberculosis seals have been distributed through the mail and a nation-wide sale is underway. Mrs. J. Earl Thornton, field secretary of the Washington Tuberculosis association, says: "A reduced death rate bears witness to the efficiency of modern facilities and scientific procedure against the disease. Nursing service, chest clinics and tuberculin skin tests coupled with an intensive and extensive educational campaign as to the cause, cure and prevention of tuberculosis are aids which should be within the reach of ---------- Northwest Viking - 1933 December 8 - Page 2 ---------- WASHINGTON STATE NORMAL SCHOOL, BELLINGHAM.

Adams, and I agree: Mine is weariness from the ground up With vocalizers of "The Last Round-up". "It pays to advertise," says booksellers, and in Put-man's Bookstdre, West Forty-fifth street, New York, a new wrinkle in advertising has been introduced. Morrow, Harcourt-Brace, and Vikng have jointly hired a young actress to sit reading in the store's front window. Occasionally, for diversion, the young lady strolls to the table, where she wraps books for her friends' Christmas presents. Perhaps our Miss Wilson could get Mr. Pierron to sit in one of the display cases, reading things of the heavier, worthier type. If ll succeeds in New York, it should work here. Is Lynching Necessary? The saddest page in the annals of recent American history is Governor Rolph's statement following the lynching of two confessed kidnappers, Thomas Thurmond and John Holmes. However, nothing better could be expected of a man whose campaign tactics included cow milking and baby kissing. Somehow we can't feel very proud of being an American when we elect to office a man who shirks his duty and then applauds an act which has no place in a civilized country. Certainly, Governor Rolph has held public office long enough to know that jus- ...tiee in his state as well as in others is a disgustingly slow process. Then, too, he must be cognizant of the increasing seriousness of the crime problem. As governor he might have taken steps to correct these conditions many months ago. Nor are our feelings elevated by the reports which said the lynching was more or less of a holiday event. The fibre of a people who celebrate an affair of this nature is decidedly rotten. It it to be hoped that in the future we will have men holding high positions who will have courage enough to act in accordance with American principles rather than to admit their own weakness by condoning .a lynching. o WHAT S What By Who's Who A Fable in Verse By Jean Hibner The afflicted need your help more than ever—with the depression not yet around the corner the only hope they have is the support you give to the buying of Christmas Seals. THE MAN AND THE GIRL (A Fable in Verse) The Man put on a silken shirt And chose his sox to match his tie. Then by a careful search he found A handkerchief that pleased his eye. He brushed his spotless coat again, And set his hat with jaunty air. With one last look into the glass He sallied forth to court the fair. The Girl was ready when he came, A princess all in gold and green. She was a girl who would look well Beside the Man, wherever seen. All through the evening's long hours He of his.manly virtues told; Nor did he seem to notice that Such things to her had long been old. At last he drove her slowly home, Still telling of his many graces; He could not fully understand Why she drew back from his embraces. Now this the moral for the man Who wants a certain girl quite badly: Think more of her and less of you, Else your story will end sadly! — o- English Usage By Calista Simonds Good morning! Have you used proper English during the holidays? Well that gives everyone a better start! Now if you are curious as to your friend's latest engagement, do not rush forward and ask,"Who did you go to the dance with?" but "With whom did you go to the dance?" As conversation progresses you may be asked how you're feelin'. Do not answer, "I's feelin' pretty good," as that would mean you were feeling benevolent, proper, or pious, nor "I'm feelin' fine," unless you intend to convey the impression of small-ness or delicacy. Correctly speaking, you will say, "I am feeling well." (Note the "g" on feeling.) Campi Coast to Coast By Donna Aisled Northwest History By Nancy Jane Smith The Catholic Herald^ London, has created a great furore over Mary Borden's new book "Mary of Nazareth". The Herald attacked the book and Miss Borden personally, who responded by bringing suit against the paper. Although the book treats Mary sympathetically, she is represented as a devout Jewess who did not behove in the message of her son. Biblical quotations substantiate this view. Whoa! Rodeo sports are replacing football at the Cheyenne school at Colorado Springs. Bucking broncs and wild steers are considered less dangerous. University of Nevada co-eds are proving the old theory that women are smarter than men. The registrar's office mailed three times as many "cinch" notices to men as to women. Transfer purposes are the only utility for grades at the University of Chicago. Which reminds us that Northwestern university and the University of Chicago will be merged m a d e n a t t e t t o a r r e s f c a n d into a single educational unit unless "As the hiss of a goose saved Rome, so the squeal of a pig may be said to have saved San Juan" says Lottie Roeder Roth in her History of Whatcom county. It seems that one Lyman A. Cutler had a potato patch of which he was duly proud, the potato seeds having been imported at a great expense from the mainland. It seems also that C. J. Griffith, the Hudsons Bay company agent at San Juan, had a prize pig to which he allowed the freedom of the island in order to assert the authority of the British. It so happened that the porker was exceedingly fond of potatoes. This fact was rather annoying to Mr. Cutler, so annoying in fact, that he finally shot the pig and faced the wrath of the British. In answer to the appeal of the enraged owner, officials at Vie- Since its first publication sixty-five years ago, "Little Women," by Louisa May Alcott, has never sold less than 12,000 copies a year.

V. Game Tuesday attheY.M.C.A. About Thirty Men Answer Coach's Call Lappenbusch Devotes First Few Turnouts to Teaching Fundamentals MOSER IS ONLY LETTERMAN Passing, Pivoting and Shooting Are Drilled on. With less than 30 men turning out regularly for basketball this season, Coach Lappenbusch has for the last week drilled his varsity aspirants in fundamentals of passing, pivoting and shooting. Prospects looked none too bright at the first session Monday night, but more players will undoubtedly be enrolling in school January 2 who plan to go out for the varsity squad. Moser, a last year's regular, was the only letterman on the floor Monday, although Zoet and Miles, from last year's reserve, were out trying to win a berth on the first squad. Frender at Center Frender leoks so far as the likely person for the center position. He is plenty rangy and can cover the floor with plenty of speed for the weight he carries around. Although his ability in scoring is a trifle weak he should be able to develop his eye before the season gets well started. Zoet should be able to give Frender much competition at that position, though, as he is very fast and was dropping them in regularly from all. spots on the floor last year. At guard things aren't quite so rosy, either. Moser, Neilson, Hoban, Albee and Starlund are the most logical men for the .position so far, but other newcomers may catch Lappenbusch's- eye before the first scheduled game is played next January. The forwards were given a good chance to show the speed and shooting ability in a few simple plays last Monday but none showed any real spark. Benedict, even though the smallest man turning out, looked fairly well at the forward position. He has some experience at Whatcom and his fighting spirit gave him chances where less aggressive players lost out. Vander Griend, Neilson, Miles and Lindsley showed up well also. Basketball League In Three-way Knot There will be plenty of fur flying next week down in the little gym when the play-off is held for the first half championship of the intramural basketball league. When the Coop team upset the Daniels hall men last week, they mixed things up right. The Co-op, Northwest Vi-khigs, and Daniels hall outfits all have a lot of scoring punch and defensive ability and so it is practically a toss-up as to who will come out with the first-half flag. A large crowd of spectators is expected to be on hand to witness these battles. Basket Shooters Averages Low in First Day's Trial Several Tied with Seventeen Points, the High Score of Entries Co-ops Beat Frosh in Thrilling Game In the lowest scoring game of the first half, the Co-op team.defeated the Frosh last night, 13 to 12. A free throw converted by Bob Zoet with about three minutes left to play proved to be the winning margin. The game was marked by a great many fouls with two Frosh players, L. Neilson and Hager, going out of the game with four personals. The Co-op profited by the mistakes of the Frosh and converted seven free throws, while they were making only three field goals, one by Zoet and two by Starlund, substitute forward. The two Neilson brothers were high point men for the Frosh with 5 points apiece. Starlund and Zoet looked good for the Co-op. Daniels Hall Win In Forfeit Match Daniels Hall won their way into a three-way first place tie in the Intramural basketball league by defeating Dick Steam's Men's club outfit 32 to 22, last evening. This gives the winners a record of five wins out of six games. The Men's club forfeited for playing an ineligible man, but nearly upset the dope bucket by downing the strong High street squad. Near the end of the first half the winners were given a score when the club got within three points of tying the score. The half ended with the Half ahead 18 to 15. Arnes led the scoring while Stone tallied twelve markers for the club.

M. C. A. floor, the Bellingham Normal Junior Varsity defeated the Blue Ribbon team 37-27. The Junior Varsity outfought, out-played and out-scored the dairy boys during most of the game. At the half the score was 22-11 with the Normal team in the lead. During the second half the Junior Varsity's fast passing attack worked smoothly and when the final whistle sounded, the school team had a safe 10 point lead. Bill Frender Stars Big Bill Freender of the Junior Varsity was the hero of the evening scoring 13 points. He was pressed by Cooprider of Blue Ribbon with 11 markers. Every member of the Normal team scored, including two substitutes. The two Neilson brothers made 12 points between them. Miles, the team's only veteran, made two field goals and a foul shot. Led by Harlan Jones in a fast fray the Harlequins nosed out the Men's Club, 17 to 14, as the final whistle blew in the second intramural game last Monday. Jones held the high score card of the game with ten points, while Dick Stearns, of the Men's Club, came second with six marks to his credit. Mullen and Jones' scoring in the first half matched that of Norlin and Stearns, Men's Club mainstays, the score being 5 to 5 when the third period started. The Men's Club aggregation claimed eight fouls for th,e game, while the Harlequins were chalked with four. o Today, we would like to congratulate the football squad for their selection of Ray Sulkosky, Jr., as the first winner of the Northwest Viking trophy. The task of picking a man to have his name on this inspirational trophy is no easy one and we feel that the team made a fine selection. This little Polack, 170 pounds of real fighting' spirit, has probably been one of the most colorful players to ever wear the moleskins for this school. He seems to possess a gift of being able to instill pep and drive into the team whenever he is in there playing. A great little guard is the Socko, and a man who is well worthy of the title, "Most Inspirational Player of 1933." Wowie! What a hot race this intramural league has turned into. Last Monday night the Co-op threw the league leadership into a real mix-up when they upset the dope and won from Daniels Hall, 17 to 13. This was the first defeat for the Daniels Hall boys and puts them back into a tie with the Northwest Viking and Co-op teams for first place. A play-off will now have to be held next week, and take a tip from me, folks—if you want to see a couple of real battles, all you have to do is to go down to the little gym and see these games. For this week's hero we nominate Bud Vander Griend, that high-scoring forward of the Co-op team. It was this gentleman who defeated the league - leading Daniels H a ll team for the Co-op outfit. After being held scoreless in the first half, he came back to score nine points in the final half, thus providing the winning margin for the Co-op team. He has been scoring high all season, and by the looks of his fine floorwork, it appears that we have good varsity material in Mr. Vander Griend, of the Lynden Vander Griends, if you please.

This was doubtless due to a lack of material and unsatisfactory weather conditions. The volleyball interclass g a me Monday differed from last week's contests in that it was necessary to play three games, the first victory going to the freshmen by a score of 21-16. The other two games, which proved the day's victory, went to the juniors by rather small margins. This victory automatically makes the juniors, who are captained by Peggy Starlund, champions for this season. (anJ then some) in the form of ushers from the W. A. A. There may be worse things than wind and rain. The publication from Cortland Normal school at Cortland, N. Y., carries the cold facts that the first women's hockey game of the season was played " 'midst snow and ice." Many things combined to prevent the hockey game Tuesday afternoon, not the least of which Was the sixty-mile gale which visited our fair city. (Where have we heard that before?) The rain also contributed its ishare and the puppet show demanded, its pound of flesh The freshmen soccer team "took a beating" Monday afternoon with a score of 4-0, when they played the sophomore-junior team. Although the season ends this week, this was the first inter-class soccer contest, the second one being played Wednesday ---------- Northwest Viking - 1933 December 8 - Page 4 ---------- W.A.A.

It is a tradition that the freshman girls prepare the breakfast .for the sophomores and juniors while the upperclassmen are out caroling. Helen Scott, general chairman of the breakfast, said, "I hope it will go over well because it has been a lot of work." A short program will be given between courses and following the breakfast Santa Claus will distribute gifts and rhymes from a decorated Christmas tree to each upperclassman. A huge fire in the fireplace will add to the cheeriness of the room. In honor of Mr. Harry Averill, editor of the Mount Vernon Herald, and Mr. Verne Branigan, member of the board of trustees of the State Normal schools, the Northwest Viking staff is giving a 12:00 luncheon, Monday, December 11, in the club-room of the Edens Hall. Mr. Averill, introduced by Mr. Branigan, will address the newswriting classes at ten o'clock. Before the luncheon the guests will be taken on a tour of the campus. Lois Wilson and Roberta Thyge-son are general chairmen of the affair and June Larson is chairman of the invitations committee. "The Viking staff," says Editor Julius Darnblut, Jr., "feels itself fortunate to have the opportunity to hear a newspaperman like Mr. Averill speaking on such an absorbing subject as the opportunities for a young man or woman in journalism". Former Students Of Normal School Home for Turkey Vacation Time Calls Teachers, Students of University To Bellingham Among the people who partook of turkey dinner in Bellingham last week, were numerous former Normal students.

Program by Hobby Clubs Given Today The Intermediate Grade Children Present Varied Program in Assembly DEMONSTRATIONS OFFERED Dramas Rhythms, and Science Among Seven Clubs Fashion's Fancies By BETH HANKINS Today let us look at the redhead —the type of woman who is almost a tradition in America but who until this winter has been disregarded by designers and fashion writers. This season she has been set up on a golden pedestal and designers and dyers have gotten their heads together and have created colors and styles for the redhead alone. Some of the results of these conferences are enumerated below. \ * * * * A new bronze color for the auburn haired woman has appeared. It is smart in a happy wool campus frock or street dress and is strangely becoming only to this type of woman. The model I have in mind is cut on the new beltless plan, fitting snugly at the waistline and broadening out into wide shoulder lines. A wide collar of the box-pleat type finishes the neckline with a chic touch. Brilliant buttons are found on the collar back as fasteners. * * * * For evening this new color is smart in an "almost-backless" crinkled crepe gown with four-deep tulle sleeves in the same color as a dainty feminine touch. It is high in front—finished with a silver band at the throat, which widens, d*e-scending in a drop-collar at the back. At the waistline at each side a narrow belt comes toward the front, meeting in a modernistic angular buckle. The skirt is cut on angular bars lengthwise, adding height to the short woman and, taking it away from the tall Woman. * * * * Black is the redhead's, best flat-terer. She can wear it and be chic, or shy, or vivacious—in fact assume any mood she chooses, while to other types of women it is merely "another dress." The effect she assumes depends upon her other color harmony. For evening, black finished with silver, orange, or emerald is flattering to the "copper" type of redhead. Black trimmed with white, is best for the redhead who has trouble with her colors, because she never knows just what effect the different artificial lights will have upon her hair and complexion. * * * * Redhead, don't be afraid of colors —ask for your color—insist that it be correct, for this season you are the designer's darling! Each Wednesday afternoon, between the hours of 1:00 and 2:00 p. m., seven hobby clubs of the intermediate grades of the Campus school meet to carry on their special selected activities. In order that the children might have the opportunity to work with others of various ages and might develop interests started in the class rooms that would otherwise be neglected, these hobby clubs were organized last year. The present seven clubs consist of activities in typewriting, science, cooking, industrial arts, rhythms, and drama. Each child belongs, to one group, making the selection at the beginning of every quarter. Activities offered in the different groups depend upon the desires of the children and the accomodations available. Demonstration Given In order that other pupils might know what goes oh during this hour each week, demonstrations were given this morning in the Campus school assembly by the various groups. Members of the typewriting club began the program by demonstrating some of their activities. Using a drug store setting, the science group gave an exhibition of flashlight powder,, sparklers, explosives ammonia, and glass bending. An oral report of the cooking club was given, after which the industrial arts members displayed stuffed and wooden toys they have made. "Old King Cole" was presented by the girls' division of the rhythm group and the boys executed stunts and tumbling acts. Concluding the events was the short skit "Grumpy" by the drama club. All groups are composed of pupils of both sexes, except the rhythms group, and these are separated because of the dfferent interests. Interest is keen, and some of the best learning takes place during these periods, according to Miss Pearl Merriman, fourth grade teacher in the Campus school.

The conference was held in Moscow, Idaho, last Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. The last meeting of this quarter will be held Monday, Dec. 11, at 7:00 sharp at the First Lutheran church on the corner of High and Maple streets. A good program is planned. All Lutheran students are urged to come. Moderation Is Asjced By Nation's President (Continued from Page One) Thorough eye examinations — accurately ground first grade lenses—all repairs made promptly. Dr. John P. Woll, Optometrist. 205 W. Holly St. cise statement. "It is very straightforward. The president faces the situation honestly and squarely in an effort to avoid the evils that existed both before and during prohibition." Miss Nora B. Cummins, head of the social science department, sees in the proclamation a plea for real temperance, also an effort to secure for the government the money now going into illicit trade channels. If your reporter may express an opinion, I consider it a direct challenge to American youth for temperance. Although the power to direct this new freedom will not rest in our hands immediately, the near future will bring its responsibilities. It is for us PPPPP

Custer Anderson ^n • • •• •• M"; •• •• •• " ." Again the stormy petrel of student journalism dips a wing into the wrathlul, sea of football opposition. Reed Harris, editor of the "Sppctatctf'' at Columbia University, declared in his paper this week that all grid deaths should be called plain "murder"! Under the title of "Death Stalks Over the Gridiron," Harris condemned the college sport as a big spectacle involving human sacrifices." "And'when a crowd of football coaches^" he continued in the editorial, "arrange things so nicely for the mobs in the stands that the players become . human sacrifices, then the wrprd, 'murder' creeps in and stays there!" Harris ironically continued that "football is wiprthy, of course, of deaths up to a million if it continues to fulfill the following func- . tions 'Tack huge crowds into the college stadia. .;• gt;.,'•. ws "Enable the athletically ambitious youth to become a hero and get a soft job, not on ability but because of his willingness to risk death on the football field. 'Trovide the heavy - drinking .alumni an outlet for their buoyant enthusiasm. "Furnish graft for athletic association parasites, publicity experts, contest officials, ticket vendors and even an occasional professor who is . willing to overlook a little thickheadedness in the class room."... . Is. Harris right in characterizing gridiron deaths as "murder" when the victim enters the sport of his ', own free will, with full realization - that he is running the risk of getting his neck broken?.. Or, are these American athletes so weak-minded that they are«drawn into the game unmindful of its dangerous element?- Undoubtedly the game itself has been getting more war-like in college competition., and,., citing this season's fatality record, we see t h a t the casualties have run unbelievably high . . . . . . b u t 'murder' seems to be a pretty strong word to use. Speaking of football, the Huskies are still, favoring aching parts from the 44-7 drubbing handed them by the U. of S. C. And, while murder wasn't committed, it might ~ have been more merciful to Wash- : ington pride to have wiped them off the surface. However, Washington took it with an outward smile saying, their opponents had the "greatest football team the coast has ever seen!" • • -W.S.N.S. CHAPMAN, R O N Board of Control Will Banquet Tonight at Shell in Quarter Finale W I N T E R MIXER IS SET Roger Chapman was re-elected editor of the Northwest Viking for the. Winter quarter of 1932,. and Ing-wald Iverson was re-elected secretary to the Board for the same period at the Board of Control meeting Wednesday afternoon. The position of business manager of the Northwest Viking was not filled. Instead, action was taken to postpone election for the position until a later-date. Banquet Report Elsie O'Donnell gave a short report of the Board of Control banquet to be held at the Chuckanut Shell this evening. Faculty guests at the banquet will include: President and Mrs. C. H. Fisher, Miss Weythman, and Miss Wendling. Others present will be the regular Board members and their guests. The program is to be made up of violin solos by Miss Emily Dow, and addresses pertaining to student government by President Fisher, Mr. H. C. Ruckmick, and Sivert Skot-heim. President Colin Campbell explained the Christmas party as worked out by Florence Christensen, general chairman of the event, and assisting committees. The Board favored all plans, and also suggested that the president investigate possibilities of lengthening the time, if only for another half hour. Winter Mixer Planned Considerable discussion resulted when a mixer at the beginning of the winter quarter was suggested. Finances seemed to be the main obstacle. Agreement was finally reached favoring a mixer in the big gymnasium on the first Friday evening of the Winter quarter. Because there is a scarcity of room in the .gymnasium, the Board decided that only Normal school students and faculty members be admitted. Flowers Sent President Colin Campbell announced that flowers had been sent in behalf of the Student Association to Charles Morgan, nightwatchman and student who was seriously injured last Saturday night while mending a steam pipe in the basement. All members of the Board were present for the meeting except Mr. Ruckmick. Ktwants Glee Club Will Sing Tuesday ' ' . T h e Mount Vernon Kiwanis Club glee club has been scheduled to contribute the program for the assembly to be held on Tuesday morning, December 15. This organization, which is under the direction of Lois Arend Helder, has appeared in Bellingham many times before, but has never before been heard at the Normal school. There is a reputed "hand-writing ' expert" in town who declares he can "decipher the victim's character by the; way he writes his name. But he doesn't get half as much fun as . the teachers here do in reading the term themes handed in by their students. Not only can they read character but the very conditions under which the theme was written. Sleepy and tired, the student suddenly realizes that a theme is due at eight o'clock the next morning and he hears the clock strike 1 a. m. Rummaging through piles of books, he finds one on "Sophocles" and how he does write! Two bongs resound from the hall clock. "She's done !'v, And he prances joyfully to "bed, his mind happily devoid of any knowledge, of Sophocles and what's more, he doesn't give two hoots. y ; ' •_——W.S.N.S. •Dean Dudley D.

H. Hoppe for "Camille" Success (By Irene Schagel) The burlesque "Camille in Roaring Camp" was played to -a fairly, appreciative audience December 3rd and 4th. The cast, being rather more difficult than usual to handle, because of its size, did not break character and were true to type all through the play. Mr. Hoppe deserves much credit for that. Deborah Altose as winsome "Camille", and Bill Bowen as dashing "Armand" handled their roles with a fair amount of ease ana ability. James Butler, as the dangerous villain, Count De Varville, did a nice piece of work and got his share of laughs before the evening was over. Gertrude Hankomp, with her whining voice and "taking ways" almost made you hate her as the folks of Roaring Camp did. Vernon Leatha, as prop man was so good that the audience was sorry his bits were not larger. Others who deserve praise for their near professional ability in- the "Camille" play are Preston Wright, as "Monsieur Duval", "Olympe--, Dorothy Ritchie; Gaston, Paul Jackson; Gustave, George McMeen; Nichette, Christine Albers, and Nanine, Vaughn Howell. As for the characters in Roaring Camp, they were very good and received applause when they deserved it. But, due to the fact that the Roaring Camp scenes were so broken up into groups, so many characters on the stage all doing different things, the audience could not appreciate the importance of each character. The play, on the whole, was good amateur work. Some of it was weak, some of it was strong, but, taking it as a whole, it was well worth seeing and well worth the work expended by casts, director, and management.

M. Stephen's introductory remark to his lecture on "The Poetry of the New World," at assembly last Tuesday morning when students of the Normal became acquainted with the foremost poet of Canada. Mr. Stephen expressed his wish to give the students something in the way of culture to take out with them to teach. "Poetry or art is the highest expression of life," he said. He explained that as culture and civilization moved westward to the Pacific coast, America appeared to be on the crest of the wave at the present time. That is, there is a renaissance of poetry in this country, today. "Not all of the poets of today will be remembered, but a few will." was predicted by Mr. Stephen. ^ Cultural Growth Describing the cultural growth from colonial times until now, the Canadian poet stated that the Puritans did not bring much poetry to us. But from 1789 to 1865 the new means of travel brought about closer relations between the new count r y a n d ' Europe. The poetry which d e v e l o p in this period was rather imitative in style. A little later an awakening of culture wajr ushered in by some Canadian poets, Charles D. Roberts, Pauline Johnson and Frederick Scott. According to Mr. Stephen, the great carelessness and generosity of today allow many people to be called poets who really are not. But Robert Jeffries, a poet living in California as a hermit, is a real poet. "He doesn't turn out poetry by the yard but writes his poems because he can't help writing them," said Mr. Stephen. As the poet gave interpretations of Vagabond Song, Jim, Smoke and Steel, and others, the audience apparently realized the true significance of poetry in their lives. He closed his lecture by reading a few of his own poems. ' Interesting Facts I t is interesting to know that Mr. Stephen has been writing poetry for ,a long time; in fact, he wrote his first poem when he was only 9 years old. ^ He has made his home in West Vancouver. Apparently, he is not the only "cultured" person in the family. Mrs. Stephen is a sculptress and one of his two sons is an artist. Mr. Stephen is interested in other things besides poetry. His hobby-is mountain climbing.

George Marjorie Hall Helen Northen Thank You, Faculty—and "A Word to the Wise—" It was with considerable surprise but not a little pleasure we received a letter of congratulations this week from a member of the Normal faculty. It is unique, certainly for us, to get a letter of this sort and we want to emphatically thank the instructor who was kind enough to recognize and comment on an appreciated, article. We also want to thank those instructors who made helpful and con-stuctive comments on their questionnaires in regard to the contents and policy of the Viking. Any interest members of the faculty show toward the school paper is appreciated by the editor and the staff and this is doubly so when the interest consists of unbiased and helpful criticism. Here's to you, Drama club. When bigger burlesques are burlesqued, Bellingham will burlesque them. We have a mental picture of this fellow—high hat, dark glasses, black gloves, funeral garb, and long nose (suitable for prying into other people's business)—the president of one of our western colleges who at a recent student party opened the doors of the cars parked outside and made certain disparaging remarks to the occupants concerning their characters, etc. The following day the whole student body threatened a strike unless an apology was forthcoming, and do we blame them? Walter Winchell tells us of an editor at the poor farm who got there by trying to run a newspaper that would please everyone. Miss Rich's Recognition Honors School. Another honor has come to a member of the Normal school faculty. Miss Rich, director of the training school, has been selected to attend a convention in Baltimore, Md., to which only thirty outstanding educators in the United States have been invited. Not only is the Normal school itself recognized nationally but also the instructors themselves are receiving the credit due their achievements. "The house you live in tells one just what kind of a person you "are," our friend said to us one day and then wondered why we disagreed with him. Houses — what queer things they are and what a lot of emphasis some folks put on them. / have another friend who never speaks of a house as such but as a home-—ah! there is the word— what a lot that word enhances— there is where the real emphasis should be placed. . . When the carpenter sets about to build a house he gathers all the material that he will need. He gets bis lumber, bis cement, his brick, his plaster, bis doors, his windows, and then he builds the house. But how about the home builder? Her task is a more difficult one—she is dealing with things more elusive than lumber and plaster—she must gather all the hospitality, all the warmness of heart, all the friendliness and love, all the comfort and peace into one lump and put it into her house to make it home. / would have liked my friend better if he had said "home" instead of "house". AND I DON'T LIKE EDDIE GUEST, EITHER. How good it is to live— Sitting beside your fire— Watching hemlocks, rain drenched— Twisting cedar boughs into Wreaths— And putting red bows in the middle. It is good to live. And then as the fire dies down and the light grows dim we get up and walk away just as we are prone to walk away from all the lovely things of life. But the memory still remains just as the soft white ashes that cling to the hearth. Below us the green campus is outlined by black boughs of the barren trees of winter—how very fond of that patch of green we have become and how much it has meant to us—must we be scored for liking it and wanting to be near it if we are in town? Camille in Roaring Camp" was good and those who did not see it missed a lot. The cast and Mr. Hoppe should be commended. We are glad we have Christmas all the month of December because we can't crowd all that beauty and joy into one day. o Student Opinion SCHOLARSHIP SOCIETY MEETS AT .UMBRELLA The regular ritual of initiation was the main feature of entertainment at a banquet of the Scholarship society held at the Umbrella last Tuesday evening at 6:30. After the banquet the guests were entertained by Sam Mayhew, owner of the Umbrella, who gave a talk about his collection of Indian and early Western curios. Fifteen guests attended the affair, among whom were: the initiates, Elizabeth Stoebel, Arvid Lon-seth, Dorothy Top, and Otto Fin-ley; the sponsors, Dr. and Mrs. H. V. Masters, Miss Marjorie Dawson, and Mr. Thomas Hunt; the advisers/ Mr. Edward Arntzen and Miss Emma Erickson; and regular members, Eddie Duyff and Rachel Roy-ston. Those in charge of the banquet were: Reta Allison, president, and Margaret Bowers and Leila Voor-hies. Wm. A. DuPuy Gives Exchange Value of College Education r WeWishYbu "Many Happy Returns of the Day" The college graduate may expect to earn $175,000 during his life span, whereas the high school graduate will earn only $110,000, according to William Atherton DuPuy, executive assistant at the department of the interior, who has just completed a statistical study of the earning power of education. This sets the value of a college education at $65,000. In sharp contrast to the boy with but a grade school training, the high school graduate at 18 earns $800. At 22 he nets $1,500, the maximum of the average income of a man with grade school education. Earns Less at First The college graduate begins to earn at the age of 22. He starts off at about $1,400, but this is less than the high school graduate makes at that age, because the latter has been at work four years. By the time the college graduate reaches 26 years of age his income goes rapidly up while that of a high school graduate mounts more slowly. Rapid Wage Increase Between 43 and 48, the college man's earnings usually reach a point of rapid increase, while the high school trained man's income is stationary and his momentum slackens. At 60 the college man is earning $4,006 a year, and at 76 his income drops to $3,500. I j William Butler...... I Winnifred Klaus....

Arranged in one corner of the room was a group of packages of all sizes heaped one upon the other. French dolls, rag dolls, organdie dolls, calico cats, gingham dogs, and "Mickey Mouses" were perched atop this conglomeration or were seen peeking around the corner of some gaily-bedecked box.

Leaders Seattle Meeting Has European Movement for Theme Miss Ruth Weythman, Miss Margery Horton and Miss Mildred Jewell, women's physical education instructors," attended the Western Washington physical education conference held in Seattle last weekend at the new Meany Hotel. Miss Weythman is president of the organization. The conference consisted of a morning session, luncheon, and an afternoon session, there being a total attendance of about seventy-five. Youth Movement Theme The theme of the conference was the ^outh movement in the various European countries. Miss Rose Glass, girls' adviser of Roosevelt High School ,talked on the youth movement in England and Germany at the morning session of the conference. Miss Glass spent an entire year in Germany studying this recent movement. Mr. Wesley Renne, who had studied in Italy discussed the movement in Italy and Hungary, and Mr. Mitchell the recent movement in Russia. Nations Need Youth All of the speakers on the youth movement stressed the fact that the governments are recognizing the fact that if they want to grow and advance they must first get hold of the youth of the nation. Although none of these speakers are physical education instructors, they all brought but the fact that recreation and physical education is very closely tied up with the youth movement in all of the European countries today. P New Alkisiahs Are Initiated Into Club Wednesday Even'ng An initiation ceremonial was the feature of the evening when twenty- one new members were taken into the Alkisiah club at a meeting held in the Edens Hall club room, Wednesday night at 7:30. After the ceremony the club president, Gerda Jensen, welcomed the new members and Miss Mildred Moffatt, of the training school, who has been a member and adviser of the club for twelve years, gave a talk on "The Alkisiah club of the Past." The meeting was concluded with the singing of old Alkisiah songs by the entire group.

Q — —— 4»J -«•• - * AMPUS LOTHES Featuring Christmas Gifts Red-berried holly, silver rain, sparkling snow once again herald the glad Yuletide season. Everything is hurry and bustle, but time must be taken to select gifts for the family, friends, girl friend and boy friend as the case may be. The stores, at this season of the year, take special care to make then-display cases fit the needs of the most discriminating shopper. One of the most-shown articles happens to be a vanity set that would delight the heart of any young miss. These sets are made up of the comb, brush, and mirror. They are.sold in colors that can be matched with almost any dressing table pieces. Along the same line one finds many lovely boxes of perfume, powder, and bath salts wrapped up in gay Christmas packages. Separate articles of this kind include the compact, the bottles of bath salts, atomizers and the like. ^ There can never be enough said about the variety of style and color in jewelry. One can obtain everything in this line from the old-fashioned silhouettes up to the modern multi-colored composition beads. Good pieces of jewelry always make lovely gifts. For one who loves to get out and get glimpses of nature, a good camera is a gift thta would be truly appreciated. Then the albums must be mentioned. Pictures are something that are always a sort of pleasure and amusement. What could be more delightful than bringing out the family album on a cold winter night and living over again the days in Florida or the week-end spent at the lake. Considering the useful side of gift-buying one may choose bedroom slippers, lounging robes, handkerchiefs, stockings, ties, belts, suspenders, sweaters, gloves, umbrellas, pocketbooks, or scarfs. If you want your best girl to write to you why not give her a box of stationery, a fountain pen, a desk pen, or a pencil. Any of these lovely gifts is sure to spur the most unresponsive to a speedy reply. Oklahoma Aggies, . m a t artists have won 64 consecutive victories since 1921.

Mac went on a scoring spree., in., the ..opener, but since then _the opposition has checked him with vengeance... So Mac wisely changed his tactics and instead of trying to run up the score he is feeding the ball to Wahl, Rork and Jonansen. McBeath,is just about the best ball rustler in the league and is doing more for the team in that line of business than he ever could by trying ..to score with the whole opposing team smothering his every attempt. ——o o Looking into the future, Coach Carver can take some comfort in the fact that many football letter-men will be back next fall. Of the backs who expect to return are Donovan, Flowers, Williams and Shelton. Gillespie and Syhrant will be fighting for their old tackle jobs. Comfort and Brewer should fill the guard slots iri good shape. Berg should be a power at center. Giss-berg is the only end letterman returning, but Mort Hogile will be in there and he is far superior to the ordinary end. Then there is that persistent rumor that some of the old stars are to return next fall for another crack at Ellensburg and Cheney. All in all the prospects are not bad. o o What a neat little basketball aggregation "Pop" Gun is turning out this year!.. The Jayvees have entered the class "B" league with "blood in their eyes", and will make a name for' themselves regardless of what the opposition., thinks., or does... They., already., have., scored three wins and looking better at every start More power to you, Jayvees! o o We see where the University of Washington basketball team, Pacific Coast conference champions, was given a score and a half by the Ellensburg Normal school last Monday when the Eastern Washington hoopsters held the Huskies to a 2 3 to 20 score. Washington won the battle in the last minute of play when Capt. Ralph Cairney bagged, a field goal and Pete An-toncich sunk a free throw. The Wildcats ran up a 14 to 8 lead in the first half but failed to score in the second period until the huskies had forged ahead 1 7 to 14. Which only means that Ellensburg probably will be in possession of a beautiful Tri-Normal basketball' pennant in about two months. This eastern.. Washington., school seems to be unable to turn out a poor team with the exception of traofc. Believe it or not, but the first stringers of the Wildcat's great team of last year, are sitting on the bench and watching entering freshmen strut their stuff. " o- o Doug Haney, of last year's Wildcat quintet, and several other veterans of last winter's squad are getting nowhere fast against the array of maple board pounds that Coach Nicholson is grooming tljis year. -—0 o-— Pinal plans have been made for .the annual Tournament of Roses football classic to be held at Pasadena. Tulane from New Orleans and Southern California will provide the radio announcers with plenty to spill into their microphones when the gridsters tangle for the mythical national championship. ——o-—-o Last week exactly seventy-six men took part in regularly scheduled basketball games here in school. Sixty-one different players participated in the intramural contests. Fifty-three men have signed up for the foul shooting contest that will run most of the winter. Added to that total there are a few Normal men on other teams in the city league. Whenever the gym is unoccupied by a class there is always an informal game going on.

The Normalites kept possession of the ball most of the time, with Wahl breaking under the basket and making the shots. In the second half both teams hit the basket quite frequently, with the checking looking a bit ragged. Keplinger, speedy little forward of the realtors, hit the hoop for all his six points of the game. Haickel, guard for them, was their high point man, scoring nine points. Nine Men Used Carver used/ his whole squad, nine players in all. Wahl, stellar forward, scored 19 points for his night work, while Rork and Kienast scored six and five points, respectively.

After a slow start the Viking Manor boys warmed to their work and won with ease. Griffen and Gable, a pair of flashy forwards shouldered most of the scoring burden, making 13 and 11 points respectively. Zwascha, playing in place of Berg, played a nice game also. Walters was the only Thespian who could penetrate the Manor defense to any extent. In the second game of the evening Nyberg, Larson and Falkner were the big shots in Vanadis Bra-gi's 21 to 10 win over the Cabbages and Kings.

I have never written this column before ("that's clear", I hear you sneer), and probably never will again, so this is undoubtedly the best Normalite I'll ever write. In spite of my inherent modesty I can't help feeling rather important writing a feature like this—do you know that no less a person than Arthur Brisbane gets paid a fabulous sum for a column in the same spot as this one in the Seattle P.-I. and elsewhere? Unfortunately or otherwise, as the case may be, I missed out on the Viking week-end party of which you might read a formal account else where in these pages. After hearing the many and somewhat conflicting accounts of this affair I am not, surprisingly enough, exactly bowed down with grief that I didn't attend. I believe somewhat in the doctrine of self-denial and so I have always denied myself the pleasure of Viking week-end parties. There are some pleasures in life that a person must learn to forego. I have also figured that I saved $1.50 but something is wrong here for try as I might, I cannot find this money anywhere and I begin to think that I never had it. And now for the most important part of this column. Something must be done about this business, and done right away! This is the time for direct, forceful action! Do you realize that two houseflies in May will multiply by August to a tremendous figure something like this: 346,000,000,000,000,000 (this might not be absolutely accurate)? So all you forward-looking, right-thinking people get out your fly-swatters and kill those "two flies. The time for talking about it is over! ACT! And ACT NOW!! Phil Campbell, our genial sports-writer, in a burst of optimism the other day, asked me to write something for the sports page. I refused to do it. So long as the nefarious, obnoxious tendency goes on to emphasize major sports over minor sports (or is it the other way around?) I decline to be a partner to any such disgraceful proceeding. However, I hope to see the day when major sports will be given preference over minor sports (or vice versa?), and the sports page once more will become a dignified, balanced feature, worthy of comparison to the other parts of the paper. Teacher Gives i Assembly Talk On Constitution Miller Presents Layman's Point Of View in Memorial Day Address Bill of Rights Stressed College and High School Youth's Patriotism Defended "We are our own masters in control of the machinery and processes of intelligent and effective expression of our mature social will. Under these conditions, where violence begins, there liberty and Democracy end. The American spirit calls for the settling of disputed questions not by the sword, but by the ballot", stated Dr. Irving E. Miller, Normal instructor, last Tuesday in his Memorial day assembly address laudatory of the United States Constitution. In stressing the significance of the Bill of Rights, Dr. Miller expressed his view that there is more hope for us in the American system in spite of faults that exist, than in any other theory. There is flexibility enough for progress and an open pathway for the assertion of "every legitimate right of the people. In defense of college youth's patriotism the speaker commented, "I am persuaded that the much criticized college and high school youth of our day love their country with just as burning an intensity as the youth of any preceding age". o Four Students Visit Victoria Last Week Gossip Column Takes Dirty Digs Frenchy Version Not Taken So Keenly by Those Interviewed; Wait Till They £ee This Week The value of a gossip column on the Northwest Viking has for some time been a bone of contention among members of the staff. The editors decided to take a census of student opinion on the matter and settle the fight once and for all. Here are some of the answers: ANONA WALDRON: I certainly don't like it when it is written in French. MARIAN PETERSON: I think Keyhole might be altered for the better. It might be changed to a sort of personality column where items of interest about different students could be printed. TOM KEEN: Keyhole is OK as long as they leave out the French and use names instead of blanks. 11 don't think, however, that the writer should use it as a means of taking cracks at his enemies. GRACE HUGHES: It is interesting. In fact, it is the very first thing one looks for in the paper. BILL BOSTROM: The paper could get along very well without Keyhole. HELEN McKENZIE: If well written, Keyhole can add much to the interest of the paper. LOIS WEEKS: I believe the space devoted to Keyhole could be used to a much better advantage. ELMER LADE: I have always been an ardent admirer of Keyhole There is about it an element of childishness -that induces wistful recollections of the newspaper the eighth grade published while I was attending grammar school. Canadian Minister of Education o Deliver Graduation Address At Thirty-sixth Commencement T lt; Recital Series Ends In Week Men Select Orloff As Club President For Coming Year Cabinet for 1935-36 Is Completed By Election of Taylor, Ullin And Starlund Last Friday night a group of 12 Sea Scouts embarked on the King Thor for a cruise to Victoria, where they spent the week-end. Among the twelve that went on the trip were four Normal boys: Joe Thomas, Henry Reasoner, Roy Johnson, and Gene Rochbacker. While in Victoria, they spent most of their time on sight-seeing excursions. They went to see the Butchart Gardens, which are very beautiful at this time of year. They also visited the obeservatory and inspected the various telescopes. After cruising around in the different harbors near Victoria they left for Bellingham, arriving here late Sunday evening. Mon Orloff was elected president of the Men's club last Friday when balloting was held during a meeting which took the place of the regular assembly program. Other officers who will serve next year are: vice-president, Bill Taylor; secretary-treasurer, Chet Ullin; Inter-club council representative, Emil Starlund. After a reading of the Men's club charter, a discussion was held which ended in the constitution being voted out and replaced by a new one. The old one dealt principally with the organization of the men's houses. The new constitution eliminates much of this, making the Men's club responsible for at least one dance a quarter, and dealing with similar social affairs. As a part of the program Cliff Johnson, assistant dancing instructor, spoke on "Ethics", advising the men on correct ballroom etiquette. The retiring officers of the Men's club are: president, Bill Frender; vice-president, Roger Mullen; secretary- treasurer, Oscar Starlund; Inter- club c o u n c i l representative. Clark McAllister.

Gragg of the Normal school faculty. Letters are being sent to all the past alumni with reservation cards enclosed. Representatives of the classes of 1900, 1905, 1910, 1915, 1920, 1925, and 1930 will each make three minute speeches. Plans for the banquet are being arranged by Miss Gragg. o Elementary School Gives Art Exhibit Students of Strange Scheduled to ' Appear on Monday Evening Closing the series of six spring recitals by the students of Edith R. Strange, of the Music department at Normal, will be one for junior and intermediate students next Saturday afternoon at 3:00 in the Leopold hotel and one for the advanced students next Monday evening at 8:00 also in the Leopold. Students from the Campus Elementary school that will appear in the junior and intermediate recital are: Jean Burnet, Carolyn Eber-hart, Clarimonde Hicks, Frances Lar-rabee, Joan Slater^ Betty Slater, Cherye Smith, Ruth Thomas, Martha Thorsland, and Gloria Hillyard. Christine Albers, Mary Rees Benson, Margaret Foster, Ruth Kirk, and Edna Pearson, all students at Normal, will appear in the recital for advanced students Monday. Miss Albers and Miss Griffith also took part in a recital which was presented last Tuesday evening at the Garden Street Methodist church.

I am an old Keyhole fan and the way this feature has been handled recently has discouraged me tremendously. One week it comes out with blanks instead of names. Next week it is written in French. If this keeps up perhaps the outraged students will turn in indignation and even start reading the editorials, bookreviews, and other filler material. After all, I like to read something I can understand in the Keyhole even if it's only about Pat Allan. * * * * * Remember a few months ago when everyone was becoming excited over a proposal called the "Senior Honor Court"? I was sorry that this subject died, for it was lots of fun to ^engage in a furious controversy over it and, what is more, W club initiates shivered in their skins when chairman Jim McCleery announced the procedure for formal club initiations. The shivering became much worse when they were tossed into the icy waters of Bellingham bay, but as they were fished out, they were warmed up by the able hands and sticks of the riot squad with Art Bagley officiating. After this, they were sent into the tunnel with orders to become human dams. They were unable to stop the rush of the waters so they were lifted out of the water by the paddle squad. The new members are: Sheldon Stutz, Chet Dombroski, Don Ken-oyer, Van Sargent, Bill Taylor, Wil-lard McKenzie, Louie Severens, Cliff Johnson, Ladd Shangle, Pat Jacob-sen, Jerry Jacobsen, Oscar Starlund, and Mon Orloff. After the initiation the club elected officers for next year. Those elected are: president, Bill Frender; vice-president, Don Holder; secretary, Oscar Starlund; and ICC representative, Sheldon Stutz.

Two more weeks and then this quarter is all washed up (deleting the grades since they shouldn't count). Summer school, however, is on the calendar in black letters. The world's best physicians double the doses occasionally, but that is slight in comparison to having not even one satisfying rainy day of vacation before another quarter begins. However it is amazing—the degree to which the technique of consoling has been firmly imbedded in the extremely plastic minds of undergraduates at this institution. Here are a few of the most encouraging comments offered: "You're gong to summer school? How grand. Think of me while I'm touring the Orient. Write •letters real often, letting me know what everyone's doing, but of course I'll be too busy to do much writing." "Yes, I'm going. O, no, only the first six weeks. All quarter for you? How will you stand it? It would positively kill me off." "Summer school? Tough. I'd sorta planned on asking you to hike the Cariboo trail with me. I'll let you see a picture of the fish and deer we bag." Then the old proverb, "Waste not thy hour", hits the inward eye. Surely there will be some recreation to partake of between tests. Perhaps it won't be so bad after all. In fact the Victoria trip, the Mount Baker hike, organized baseball, tennis, etc. More fun. Say, don't you wish you lived here? Arabs were running to and fro. Hindus were running to and fro. Abyssinians were running tq and fro. I ran my fingers through my long white whiskers and gazed into the tropical sky. A full ten yaars had passed since I had been graduated from Normal and a great longing had seized me. I wanted to know how my classmates had fared. I knew of a fakir who had a crystal ball in which people could see their friends, past, present, or future so I lost no time in going to his shop. I could hardly believe my eyes—there on a pillow sat Roger Mullen and around the shop were cobras, incense, and Persian rugs. He uttered not a word, but pointed to the crystal ball. Ransom Convis was selling hot dogs at a stand at Coney island. Next we see Vic Dickinson going from door to door with a suitcase of Fuller Brushes (paid adv.) under his arm. Betty Hunt is standing on a soap box on some crowded street corner—the crowd is packed tight around her. Ella Cook is working in the five and ten. The next scene is quite dim. It shows Oscar Johnson. He is preaching in a Chinese church. Ossie Hall and Ted Abner—that inseparable pan-are working on a big dairy farm—shoveling. Clyde Wheeler and Art Bagley are going down the street with a kit of tools under his arm. They are going to fix a leak in a steam pipe. We see a sign over a door. It reads Francis Fisher, hand laundry. Marian Looney and Gen Strain are dressed in furs —a penguin or two are around. Johnnie Bromley is a pro on some golf course. Next we see a uniform. It is Carl Lowe. He has run away and Joined the foreign legion. The crystal grows darker. Next we see two thugs working in front of a safe. They are Pat Allan and Bob Hartley, while on the outside pounding the pavement is a flat foot—he is Vene Fisher. The scenes fade from the crystal and Mullen, the fakir, bides me leave. Scion Thrown Out Of Court Pm/liaioiis Procrastination Frat Board Walk From the Spartan Daily of May 15, from the San Jose State college, California, comes news of a limerick contest. The competition was open to all students. One line was given and the rest had to come from the brains (maybe we'd better say heads) of the participants. Can't find what compensation is due the winners, but this sounds interesting: - "The outcome of the limerick judging in this week's witest brought to light enough high place winners to fu\iish enough vice-presidents for a large bank. "So the editors had to resort to a different way of announcing which of the entrants could juggle rhymes and ideas best. They are listed without place mention, but in the relative order of superiority". (Play safe, eh?) One of the first.place winners was: DIALECTICAL TRI-LIMERICK OF THE TRANSCENDENTAL TRAPEZE 1.

In Annual Cinder Meet At Ellensburg Kenoyer Makes Record Holder jScores Thirteen Points To Be High Scorer With a total of 63 points, Cheney Normal overwhelmed' Bellingham and Ellensburg in the annual trinomial meet, held at Ellensburg on May 25. Bellingham placed second with 36% points while Ellensburg trailed with 31%. Don Holder, of Bellingham, collected 13 points to be high man for the meet. Holder had firsts in the 120 high hurdles and broad jump, and second in the high jump. An Ellensburg man, Holl, was credited with second with 11 points. Kenoyer Sets Record The outstanding race of the meet was the 800 yard run in which Don Kenoyer, Viking roller, set a new record time of 2:01, clipping .7 of a second from the old mark held by Egan, of Bellingham. The meet was held on the Ellensburg old race track and a thick layer of dust made the track exceedingly slow. According to Coach Sam Carver, Kenoyer would have lowered the record to 1:58 if the conditions had been ideal. Two other tri-normal records were broken, Hall, of Ellensburg, leaping six feet even in the high jump to break the old record by one inch, while Walters, Cheney hurdler, stepped the low hurdles in the fast time of 24:8. Taylor Loses Mile Robinson, of Ellensburg, pulled the biggest upset of the day by coming in ahead of Bill Taylor, Viking ace, in the mile run. Taylor has a much better time than the tri-normal winner turned ir,;but was sick before the race star/ JL Despite his illness, Taylor ga.e one of the gamest exhibitions ever seen in a track meet. The entire Carver squad placed in at least one event with Holder and Johnsen placing in three. Holder broke a tie between Ellensburg and the Vikings by taking the broad jump from Byersdorf, his Cheney rival. Next year's tri-normal will.be held in Bellingham.

The Ellensburg men came out with a first in the doubles and also a win in the first singles. Denslow, Wildcat captain, won the first singles from Belling-ham's Ladd Shangle. Shangle won the first set easily and only gave Denslow 2 games. Denslow then came back to defeat Shangle in the following two sets by scores of 6-1 and 6-2. Starlund and Shangle won from the Cheney doubles team but lost to Denslow and Bonney in straight sets. Roger Mullen was the only winner for Bellingham in the tri-normal and thus gave the Vikings a second place in the squad averages. Mullen played two matches, the first being with Jose of Ellensburg. He easily defeated Jose and continued his stride to take Miller of Cheney to the Norsemen's camp. Coach Carver said that he was well satisfied with the tennis season although it was not as successful as the previous seasons. o son, C; Colwell, E.

The fact of the matter was that anyone who didn't attend the meet will never know how lucky the Vikings were to place second. Advanced dope gave Ellensburg only 19 points, leaving Bellingham and Cheney to fight over the remaining 112, but what a disappointment! It wasn't until the last event that Coach Carver's blood pressure went back to normal, when Don Holder came through with a leap to beat Beyersdorf in the broad jump and ring up the needed points for second place after trailing all through the meet. Nicholson Has Dark Horse As in other sports, anything can happen in track, and it sure took place last Saturday. .If you don't believe in dark horses just ask Bill Taylor. He was favored, without a doubt to win the mile. Having run a splendid race the previous week-end 'against Cheney in the good time of 4:35, Bill had no idea that Robertson, Ellensburg's colored flash, would give him a race. Running on a loose dirt track, three laps to the mile, the colored marvel came blazing up the home stretch ahead of Taylor with all the characteristics of his Ethiopian brothers, Owens and Metcalfe, who are dominating all existing performances of the track world. Bill almost, lapped the track with him at the CPS meet three weeks ago, so his defeat came as a shock to all. Don Kenoyer broke the only record for the Norsemen and proved his case as a fine runner by coming through with a beautiful, tireless sprint to nose out Bowers in the 880, after they had alternated the pace-setting throughout the race. To Don Holder we dedicate the honor of being the tri-normal's most-valuable track man for the last two years. He has managed to be high point winner two years in a row and all through this season he has scored a quarter of the total points made by Bellingham. Don's pet extent is the high hurdles and he would rather win a sprint to nose out Bowers in the 880, hurdle race than miss a meal at Bartons'. High and broad jumping is only his side-line, but he does a nifty job of jumping three inches higher than his head and broad jumping close to twenty-two feet. Vikings Need Reinforcements This year's track team has been a rather crippled affair with only about ten men on the squad capable of scoring in meets. For the first time in years Coach Carver was unable to collect fourteen men to compose the tri-normal squad. In order to win a track meet a team must have at least two fairly good men in most events. A team with second high and third place men can score four points to the five for a first place. Such was the case last Saturday. Cheney had a well balanced squad and managed to get seconds and thirds whenever they couldn't take a first and had the advantage over the crippled Ellensburg and Bellingham squads. Normal Racqueteers Meet Huskies Again Tomorrow Afternoon As a windup to the spring sport program, the Viking racquet squad faces the University Prosh tomorrow afternoon at 2:00 on the local courts. Several weeks ago the Norsemen took a bad beating from the yearlings at Seattle, but this time expect to have a better chance on the concrete courts. Crapo will probably lead off for the visitors followed by Murphy, Johnstone, Knappenberger and Cahen. For Bellingham Shangle will be in the number one spot as usual with Starlund, Mullen, Joly and Orloff following in the order named. Starlund was the only member of the squad to win his match in the previous contest. Four of the team members have already won their sweaters. Shangle, Mullen, Starlund and Joly; Orloff being the player who has not cinched his. O'Malley Scores High First Round Score in College Archery Meet Theresa O'Malley scored the highest number of individual points in the first round of the inter-college archery meet played Monday on Waldo field. The other three girls participating in the meet are: Myrtle Mills, Margaret Carmichael, and Beth Moore. The girls shot 24 arrows each at the distances of 30, 40, and 50 feet from the target. Results of the first round will be received from Chico State college in California, sometime next week. Normal students that have qualified as senior members of the Red Cross life saving service are: Lois Weeks, Thelma Finley, Gwen Sim mons and Ruth Kulle. All were pupils of Mrs. Jessie Carver, swimming instructor at the YWCA.

XXXII—NO. 10 WASHINGTON STATE NORMAL SCHOOL, BELLINGHAM, WASHINGTON Wednesday, November 29, 1933 Normal Not To Ask For More Funds Normals May Ask for Permission to Return to Warrant Pay Basis LACK OF FUNDS FORESEEN University and State College May Need More President C. H. Fisher made public recently the statement that the Normal schools will not seek additional financial support from the state legislature when it convenes in a special session. This announcement came as a result of the statement from the Washington State college and the University of Washington that they were preparing to ask for increased appropriations. The special session of the legislature starts December 4. This, in effect, means the Normal schools will, seek permission to return to the warrant pay basis. They arre now operating on a cash basis, which makes it necessary for actual cash to be available before the school may spend. As tax receipts have lagged schools have been handicapped with lack of funds, forcing them to effect additional economies. Taxes Hoped For However, if payments of delinquent taxes are adequate, President Fisher says the Bellingham Normal school will be in "fairly good shape and could get along without additional appropriations." For this reason the Normal schools of the state will not ask for anything more than to spend money up to the appropriations already set. To do this means a return to the warrant basis. The University and the State college will, however, be forced to seek additional funds. President Fisher states he is en-couraged bythe present amount of delinquent ^taXes^ being: paid and foresees the possibility that the Bellingham Normal school will, not be short, at all. : ~ O .

The Verse Speaking Choir of the San Jose Teachers' college gave an unusual program in the assembly Monday morning. Miss Elizabeth Jenks directed the choir. Participating in this choir were eleven women and three men. Thirty- five choir members were left at home. Miss Jenks directs a choir of men, one of women and a mixed choir. The students graduate from one choir to another until they finally make the one which appeared in our assembly. Considering the number of voices in the choir, the clearness of enunciation was remarkable. Effects were heightened by standing formations taken by the choir, by gestures and by the lighting effects.

The pottery has been studied principally from the standpoints of proportions, color and appreciation. A number of interesting pieces may be found in the art room, particularly two Chinese ginger jars and several pieces from England and Italy. The students have been inspecting several pieces that are good looking but inexpensive and have been studying them from' an artistic viewpoint. Interesting Pieces One small piece of pottery is significant for its association and is interesting to study. It was made by Anton Lang, who plays a leading part in the famous Passion Play at Oberammergau. Another dish of particular interest was made in the University of North Dakota in the college of mines. Here they have their own clay beds and have de veloped an individual type of pottery, which is very significant in the dish Miss Breakey has. . •-.••.:., A-::.A"' :"•-'•'-..'-O'..' ..'.: ';.'.••••••.- • lt;•'•- Several Students on Sick List According to Latest Reports According to the latest reports from the nurse's office the follow ing people were reported ill.

The regular fall examination schedule will get under way Wednesday, December 13, and continue throughout the week. Most of the tests will be given Thursday, December 14, and Friday, December 15. Regular class work will close Wednesday, December 13, except for practice teaching, which continues through Friday. By this plan it is hoped to avoid the necessity of students taking two or more tests in succession. Rooms with large enough space have been already assigned to the classes for their test. However ,if any teacher desires, they may give them in the auditorium by getting a definite assignment from Miss Bouck. Examination schedule will be posted on the bulletin board and all adjustments should be made as soon as possible, according to Dean Bever. o Paper Weights Cast In Order To Study Process of Molding Electro-plated paper weights are one of the projects now being completed by Mr. Herbert Ruckmick's industrial arts classes.

Usually they and up by telling their public about purely material things. Of far more importance in our estimation are the intangibles. This year we express our gratitude to the Great Giver for the men and women of all ages who have dared to think and see beyond the narrowing walls of public opinion. Today as never before we need people who are willing to swim upstream, men and women who don't mind the vitriolic remarks of a reactionary public and press (we are not referring to the local radio-press situation). We might well stop for a few moments and pay tribute for the greatest gift, of all—thinking, wojrking, far-seeing, fearless individuals. o MAGAZINES on Parade By Holden Read "What Is, Roosevelt Driving At?" in The New Statesman and Nation, October 28. There is London's idea of our good ruler's policies. In "The Third Reich Votes," by Frederick Schuman, November 22 New Republic, Hitler's spell is described as "old ...- all the old tricks are here: military fanfare, martial music, flags on bayonets, banners, and the old, empty words." The new Pure Food and Drug bill appears to be creating nothing less than a furore in patent medicine makers' circles. In "Heap Bad Medicine", November S, New Republic, Mitchell says the effect of a concerted attack by this group is not to be underestimated... On the same subject is "Patent Medicines and The Law", in American Mercury, November. Developments in this situation should, be worth watching. Musical reviews and "girl shows" are definitely 'in" in Japan. European and American fads need time to reach Japan, but when they do arrive, they are adopted by the empire entire. "The Student Prince," Maeterlinck's "Blue Bird," and even "Hamlet" have been presented in revue. This interesting development is described in "Jazz in Japan," November Living Age magazine. The recent Rockefeller study on the question of liquor distribution and consumption is discussed in "Liquor's New Problems," November 22 Nation. It emphasizes the patent truth that no wave of the legislative wand can accomplish what the saints and sages have failed to achieve since the beginnings of ordered society. "Elite and Mediocrity in Education" is contained in the Journal of Adult Education for October. George E. Vincent, the author, raises the old. question of whether education of the phenomenal student should be stressed more than wholesale education for the masses. Dr. Vincent finds the choice difficulty having received his early training under very democratic conditions, then having been transplanted into a rather snobbish group at Yale. , ' If you don't understand the international silver agreement of July 22 (and Who does?), refer to an expository article, "The Silver.'Agreement'' in; the Foreign Affairs; quarterly review., vv3A- NewDeclaration for History'?; a^very pertinent take-off on v:the Declaration of Independence, states the aims of history teachers' In modern schools.

A new and simplified form of English has been worked out by the orthplogical institute at Cambridge, primarily for the purpose of making an international language. This new tongue, which is called "basic English," contains only 850 words. Its proponents hope that it will solve the age-old problem of finding a language that can be successfully taught to people of all nations. What chance has mere man? Enrollment at the University of Detroit shows that only 77 men attend the school whereas 3,543 women complete the student body.

The Pilgrims By Hankins There is rivalry between Boston and Plymouth as to which one actually put the holiday on the map. It is said that Boston's Thanksgiving celebration has always been more dramatic and sincere than that of Plymouth, thus giving grounds for argument. Uncanny foresight was exercised by our forefathers who chose the date for the first Thanksgiving an niversary. For awhile the date was February 22—on which date nearly a century later George Washington was born... This date was the day of the Thanksgiving holiday for many years. ' Throughout the years of American history there have been many queer reasons for postponing Thanksgiving day. In New Haven in 1660 the authorities postponed the holiday until "the afflicting hand of Cod Was eased up a title." There was much sickness in the town and the governor Was ill, so it was left to the court to decide upon a future date for the holiday. Another unusual circumstance in Connecticut which prompted, the postponement of Thanksgiving was a shortage of molasses, of which large quantities Were used on this occasion... The date of the celebration was set at one week ahead on the calendar, by which time they believed the town could be supplied with molasses. ' As time progressed the older Puritans deeply regretted the fact that Thanksgiving day was fast becoming just a day of gaiety and feastiong rather than a day of devotional service. This idea has progressed, however, until today the outstanding light of Thanksgiving is the turkey and cranberry sauce and mince pie —followed by the. football game. Be that as it may, the majority of us still feel a bit of respect for those Pilgrim fathers who first celebrated Thanksgiving Day—even though we have met them only through literature and legends.

This is the date set for the first Tegular turnout of the year, and about thirty-five men are expected -to answer the maple court call. The Junior Varsity was picked from intramural squads for their first two games but with only two lettermen returning for the varsity outfit. Some of the J. V. men will T)e given a chance to prove their worth in faster company. At the present time.ten men are playing for the Normal class B team. B. Moser is the only last year's regular who is in school this quarter. He was a dependable player last season and will undoubtedly be in the starting lineup at the first game. Dutch McBeath is planning to return for the winter quarter and will become the second last year's regular to turn out. He works both at forward and center. Besides these two letter earners, Zoet, Miles, and MeNcil will probably be in suits seeking places as regulars. All three were on the first team during last season. Zoet was a very capable reserve center, while Miles and McNeil filled in at guard. Cheney and Ellensburg may also help to add materially to this year's Vikings. Puller has completed his tri-Normal conference playing at Ellensburg, but will be able to play in non-conference games this year. Fuller has been a consistent scoring forward for Daniels Hall so far this season. Hoban played guard at Cheney last year -but yfiti. be out for Bellingham. Monday. Others who can be counted on to make Bellingham's hopes for the tri-Normal championship rosy are few. Frender/ has had some experience at center, while Vander Griend did well for the Lynden high squad the last two years and may make the grade with the Vikings. With four games having been played, Benedict, Co-op forward, and Hudson, Northwest Viking forward, are leading the intramural scoring race with a total of 42 points.

The newspaper men came out second best by.the small margin of three points, but are still convinced that they are just as good as the boys from High street What a battle it will be when they meet again! That victory practically makes.the Daniels Hall boys a cinch for the first half title. George Albee's Co-op team is the only one that has the slightest chance-to knock the leaders off their perch and that is hardly probable as the Co-op has already been defeated by the team from the newspaper office. However, they aren't giving the game up as lost yet, and may surprise us all. More power to them! soon as the Thanksgiving vacation is over, Coach Sam Carver will-have the entrants out shooting their twenty-five a week. - A new champion will be crowned this year as none of the former title holders are in school. Last year the tournament was won by Bob De- Lancey, who tossed 208 good ones out of a possible 250, which is throwing them in pretty regular. . i Clint McBeath, Dick Hammett and Harold Lahtonen, all of whom finished in the first five; are also not in school and so,the race is wide open. A plaque of some .sort will probably be put up for the winner. Coach Royal Gunn Has Winning Team At Washougal High Winning every conference game they have played this year, Coach "Pop" Gunn's team from Washougal high school appear favorites to win Southwest honors and a partial claim to the Washington State football championship. For several years Royal E. (Pop) Gunn was a popular assistant coach at the Bellingham Normal. Last summer he accepted the position as principal of the grade school in Washougal and coach at the high school. Pop's team lost an interstate bat tie with Hood River (Ore.) in then-season opener by a small score. Since then only two touchdowns have been scored against Washougal, December 4 opens the first week of the annual foul shooting contest, which will continue for eight weeks, excluding Christmas vacation. Held every year during the fall and winter quarters the contest is a much talked-over feature of the basket season. • Coach Carver expects around fifty men to participate in the shooting, although up to date the following ten men only have signed: Macrae Stone, James Moscrip, George Albee, Bun Miles, By Moslier, Dick Stearns, Dwight Divirrd, Russell Stockton, Wendall Benedict and Bob Lindsley. Ten Weeks Last Year Last year ten weeks were run off in the contest with twenty-five shots a week, making a total of a possible 250 points. Bob Delancey won last year's fray, scoring 202 shots, and Clint McBeath was runner-up with 19? baskets. In past years a prize has been given in form of some athletic equipment. This year it is being proposed that a trophy be given by the Board of Control to have the winner's name engraved each successive year. The contest this Vear will be conducted the same as in former years. Each contestant will be required to take twenty-five shots a week until the total of 200 is reached. The annual free throw contest is about to get under way again.

The game was played anyway and the Frosh team won, 23 to 19, in a hard fought overtime game. Neither team looked very good as their; passing attacks were rather ragged. At the end of the first half the Vikings were leading, 17 to 11, but they were checked closely all through the second half and the regular playing time ended with the score tied at 19 all. In the over-time period Millakan and Vandergriend scored baskets to give the. Frosh the victory.

"What did you observe in this particular class to inspire you with this idea?" "I detected unusual harmony in the voices, which led me to the realization that the strength of poetry and the harmony of voices brought into co-ordination would bring about a new interpretation of an old art." "In what way is this interpretation suggested to the class?" "This is a matter for the class itself to decide. I choose the poem which is to be interpreted, and the manner of interpretation is decided upon by agreement, or, if necessary,' by vote." Gathering from this surprising information, that no definite provisions were made for the instruction of this type of art, I inquired whether or not this was a part of the school curriculum. Miss Jenks' "No, it is an extracurricular activity without school credit" evinced a voluntary remark from one of the participants: "We do it because we love it," which revealed the true artist and explained, somewhat, the success of this venture into hew fields. —-——o- Viking Staff Has Quarterly Party "For cryin' out, turn over.

XXXIV.—NO. 12 WASHINGTON SfrATE NORMAL SCHOOL, BELLINGHAM, WASHINGTON Friday, December 20, 1935 Campus Chatter SHOVELS RUFFLES SHOPPERS —By Morse jYuletide Spirit Invades School Campus School, Prexy's Office, WL Rooms, and Others Decorated Although the new Physical Education building has been secured only through very great effort, the actual beginning of work, which occurred exactly at 12:30 p. m. on last Tuesday, did not seem to offer as much thrill as would be supposed. The huge shovel sank its gaping jaws into the earth, came out with a large load of . dirt, a picture was taken of the entire affair, and all was over. However, despite the lack of tumult and shouting, it is a known fact that everyone around Normal welcomes this addition to the school, and is extremely glad that Normal's stocking was big enough to receive its 1935 Christmas gift. Finally that last long week is almost over, and that business of finals is finished. It will be something of a pleasant relief to be able to go home without carrying an armload of text books, and to spend a week-end without studying until the little hours. Christinas seems triply pleasant after all this: one, because it helps to take away the sting of finals; two, because of the significance of the day itself; and three,, because it comes before grades are sent home. Opening at the first of winter quarter to all men students is a new house, Kosy Kottage by name. If the appelation means anything at allj the fellows who stay there will probably be sponsoring the teas held weekly in the Women's League room, and pink ruffled curtains will hang at the windows. If one could see the rooms, one would probably see crisp organdy pillows and embroidered bedspreads, long-legged boudoir dolls gayly dressed in silks and satins, lace doilies and table covers in profusion, and a tiny yawning hope chest, standing in a kozy korner of each apartment. Sponsored by the Music department last Tuesday the Christmas assembly was a fitting prelude to the holiday season. Outstanding on the program was Mrs. Nan Dyb-dahl Wiik, local soprano, who sang several beautiful Christmas songs, one with the mixed chorus. But after the assembly was over, one of the queries which went from lip to lip was "Why was there such a noticeable absence of numbers from the male chorus alone?" "Deck the halls with boughs of holly." Though the halls may not be decked many of the rooms are. Several of the upper grades in the Training School have small Christmas trees and holly wreaths in their rooms, and all of the primary rooms have something in keeping with the holiday spirit. There are small Christmas trees in the Women's League room and in Pesident Fisher's office. The one in the president's office has a string of lights which is looked upon with envy by every member of the Viking staff. But even without lights the tree in the Viking office tops them all. The oraments are works of art. What the staff couldn't make several people, unknown to themselves, very generously donated. To get in a real Christmas spirit be sure to see all the decorations, and above all, don't miss the Viking tree. o 1934 NW Viking Given High Rating Construction Started on Building Long Desired Physical Education Structure Gets Under Way As First Shovelful of Dirt Is Lifted Tuesday Paper Placed Nea Shenenberger, r Top Under Dornblut Once again another Christmas approaches. Glances at the downtown stores, streets, and all houses assure one that it is foremost in the minds of everyone Throngs of busy early - Christmas shoppers hurry to the shopping district to buy this for Aunt Sophronia, and that for Great-Uncle Nat which neither will ever use. And of course little Algy must see Santa, and expound to him his long list of Christmas wants. The first part of next week all of us who have been up to this time completely engrossed in finals (supposedly), will begin to realize the proximity of Christmas, and will tear madly into buying. Most of us will be able to spend the holidays at our respective homes, and there will be a few who will remain in Bellingham for the vacation. To every member of the Normal faculty and the student body we off-the Viking staff extend the heartiest of Christmas greetings, and the very best New Year's wishes. One of the finest ways to show your Christmas spirit is to invest in even a few tuberculosis seals, ana as many as you can possibly afford. It is a most worthy cause and deserves the strong support of everyone. After all, they aren't useless, md it certainly won't be money vasledK ..';..,•,..- ...... ' ...:-.•,.-.!'' ':"•• Last year's Northwest Viking was awarded a first class rating in the annual contest sponsored by the Columbia Scholastic Press Association. The awards given by the press association are, Gold Medal, first class, second class, and third class. The Viking issues entered in this contest were published when Ralph Shenenberger. was editor and Victor Dickinson, business manager. I An Ail-American rating was a- j warded the Viking last year by the, National Scholastic Press association of the University of Minnesota. This is the highest rating given in this contest. Julius Dornblut was editor when this high honor was awarded the Northwest Viking. There are three Gold Medal papers on the Viking exchange list. They are: The Junior Collegian from the Los Angeles Junior college; The Southwestern, from the Southwestern Teachers' college of Weatherfprd. Oklahoma; The Au-gustana Mirror, from the August-ana Teachers' college, Maine. Two more Gold Medal papers will be exchanged with the Viking next quarter. They are also several first and second class papers on the exchange lists. Advance Reports Of Next Quarter AsLsSesmembDl lies[|GO CI With 200 enthusiastic members of the faculty and student body on hand to watch, the first shovelful of dirt was taken from the site of the soon to-be-built physical education building. The ceremony took place at 12:30 p. m. last Tuesday. The breaking of the ground for the new building marks the full-fillment of a need that has been pressing for oyer 30 years, according to President C. H. Fisher. It was then that the present gym was built, but only a temporary structure. It has, however, served as the only gymnasium facility until this year. There is $210,000 available for the construction of the new structure, which is being built by the Hen-rickson- Alstrom company of Seattle. Earth from the excavation will be used to finish a new road which is to take the place of Normal drive. As soon as the new road is completed, the drive will be closed, allowing more room for the new building. The structure, complete with modern equipment and a swimming pool, will probably be ready for use in the fall of 1936. Christmas Seal • Sales Increase TB Funds Provide Mantoux Tests For Many Students Normal Students To Hear Variety Of Entertaining Programs During Winter Local Theatre Guild Dramatizes Story 'Christmas Carol' Presented New Playhouse In Wilson Will Return After Long Illness Roy D. Wilson, printer in the Industrial arts department, is at home convalescing from his recent illness. Lawrence Jones, assistant in the Industrial arts department, says that Mr. Wilson has been at school once or twice and that he is merely recuperating for the winter quarter. Mr. Wilson received several blood transfusions while he was in St. Luke's hospital. Last Wednesday night, the local Theatre Guild opened a four nights' run of "Christmas Carol", the ever-popular tale by Charles Dickens. Mrs. Celeste Joly, prominent in Guild work, devised the dramatic interpretation of the piece. The play was directed by Norman Burchette and the cast headed by Glenmore Jones, Adolph Rank, and Walter Sewell, incldes two former Normal students, Marshall Bacon and Bernice Johnson. Victor H. Hoppe, head of the speech department, read the prologue. Throughout the entire play a simple, black set was used with various dramatic effects achieved by means of unusual lighting. An unseen chorus sang charming English carols and provided a continuity in the sequence of the numerous, brief scenes. o Boggess Has Operation After Dislocating Knee Hurley Boggess Viking halfback who was hurt in the Ellensburg- Normal game underwent an operation in the St. Joseph's hospital yesterday morning. A piece of the j semi-lunar cartilage was taken out (of his knee. Boggess, who is known for his exceptional ability'at passing and his consistent playing, was hurt when some player tackled him and some other player fell on his leg. He has been wearing a cast on his leg for the past month. He is expected to be in perfect condition by next fall but if he is still troubled by the injury he will be seriously missed by the football squad. (Continued on Page Pour) Test Worry Over For Happy Studes Hear ye! Hear ye! To students and faculty comes the joyous news that good old Santa Claus has provided 17 whole days of relaxation before the start of winter quarter. Seventeen days of rest and time enough to wear the newness from your Christmas collection of wearing apparel. Another boon to students is the fact that report cards. won't enter the home until after'your Christmas stocking is filled. This may be of some consolation to students-.that have to face the Scholarship committee next quarter. 'Old Values and New Trends in Children's Literature' Reviewed Intelligent selection of stories for children is somewhat different in this day of brilliant illustration and meagre text, according to Mrs. Mavy Hill Arbuthnot, associate professor of Education, Western Reserve University. She gives some criteria in an .article, the second in a series. "Old Values and New Trends in Children's Literature" in Childhood Education. Mrs. Arbuthnot' develops her article by enumerating eight major criteria for judging children's books. At every age throughout the elementary school the child's appreciation level lies two or three years beyond his reading level: Thus she. impresses her reader with the adult responsibility for developing the child's tastes. Many entertaining and instructive assemblies will be presented at the Normal school during the winter quarter according to a report from the President's office. Helen Louise Oles, pianist, and Margaret M. Hemion, dramatic soprano, will appear in a joint recital. The opera "Hansel and Gretel" directed by Magnus Peterson of Seattle will be presented early in the quarter, assisted by a ballet of Normal students supervised by Miss Mildred Jewell, and the school orchestra directed by Donald Bushell. Four lecturers of note will speak before the students: Ann Morgan, lecturer, socioist and. educator; Stewart P. Bryant, retired lieutenant commander of the United States navy; Carveth Wells, explorer; and S. Miles Bouton, authority on Germany. Raymond Marlowe, tenor, a member of the San Francisco opera company, will sing, accompanied by Edith Strange. A program of dramatic readings and impei-sonations will be given by Harry Pearson.

To Each and Every One of You The Viking Staff Extends Sincerest Wishes for the Most Enjoyable of Vacations, the Merriest of Christmases and the Happiest of New Years . Muck • . For Morons Shortly after Christmas MILDRED LARSON is moving to Portland to live. So far she has not told DICK NEWLEAN, with whom she has been here and there since last summer. Apparently, though, Dick won't care, because last Friday night he took JEAN SPENCER to the play. . . . Last Thursday AYL-MER BRIGHT spent a pleasant evening visiting MARIE FOX at Collett Court. And then what did that fickle Aylmer do, but take ALYCE MOE to the Edwards hall party on Saturday. Aylmer, you heartbreaker! . . . Also among those present at Edwards on Saturday were SHIRLEY KEEPERS and JOHN JACOBSON who seemed to be enjoying the evening's entertainment. . . . HELEN TURNER has temporarily tired of the fields of endeavor at Normal, and so she now goes places with an assistant manager of one of the downtown stores. . . . Another who just cannot be satisfied with what Normal has to offer is JIM GREGGS. He, in desperation, has turned to the senior class at Whatcom high school for new worlds to conquer, and has succeeded in finding that for which he searched. . . . And then there is LLOYD TELSEN who picked none other than the youngest Squire girl from the ranks of Fairhaven. . . . Although canoe rides are usually, a sign of spring, FAITH SCHEYER and MAYNARD PONKO overlooked the decided fall chill in the air and went canoeing anyway. . . . JACK RAUCHE turned a bit pink around the ears when he looked up from, kicking a large box around on Holly street and saw a policeman interestedly watching him. . . . Is MORT HOAGLEY double-crossing BRINK-MAN by stepping MARY BENSON, both of whom were here last year? . . . . HAZEL TURNER and ED PORTER are getting somewhere fast lately. . . . Did you know that this column is the swan song of MARGARET MORSE who has been writing your dirt practically all quarter? "And when they Were come into (he house, they saw the young child with Mary his mother, and fell down, and worshipped him: and vohen they had opened -their treasures, they presented unto him gifts; $old, and frankincense, and. myrrh." —MAT. 2-11. Dine in Suits. Women need no longer envy men and their evening sleekness. The Paris mid-season's offer suits outshining theirs. Mainbocher presents a tailored salmon lame jacket with a slit black wool skirt and a sheltering cape edged with sable. Evening: Styles for daytime are a recent .innovation. Something different is a tuxedo type daytime bouse of satin with a pleated bosom, shirt sleeves, and gilt buttons and cuff links. The belt is of gold fabric. Surprisingly low-priced, it comes in white, rust, and gold. * • gt; * * An Evening Belt from Alix is shown of black cloque leather worked with motifs of lapis beads and pearls set in blood red rosettes. Another belt, in gold braid embroidered with topazes, rubies, emeralds, and sapphires, is designed to wear with a gold lame dress. f Reminiscent of the gay 90's is a demure two-piece frock. Of dark wool with tiny buttons and tight belt of red leather, but including the new front fullness, it is a sat-., isfactory combination of the old and new in fashion trends. * * * « West Point Uniforms have set the style and influenced designers in creating a black wool suit with fitted jacket like an army cadets. It hooks .down the front and has strips of black velvet instead of braid. —Courtesy L. A. J. C. Periodical Parade By Peterson "With Huey Long's demise the influence of the politician-priest now presents the most fascinating. enigma of the gathering campaign". So says Forrest Davis in his article on Father Coughlin in the • December ATLANTIC. Of the possibility of his connection with the governing class in the event of Fascism in the United States, Mr. Davis says that Father Coughlin is the most incisively Fascist voice in America. In FORTUNE for December there is "The Case Against Roosevelt". The article says t h a t the two candidates in the' coming presidential election will be Franklin D. Roosevelt. It argues whether the good he has done can outweigh the things he has not done. The author concludes that Roosevelt could not help certain actions, such as breaking promises and spending large percentage on relief projects. It states that the real issue will be a government of laws, not of people. Beautiful Pictures Also in the December FORTUNE is a beautifully illustrated story of the merger between Twentieth Century and Fox. It tells of the inside workings of the film industry in order to get Darryl Zanuck, the fair-haired boy of Hollywood, to direct pictures for Fox. As is customary in the tired business man's magazine, there are many pictures—all colored —showing how films are made. Th Bookshelf By Branch Cabell WORKS OF BRANCH CABELL Jurgen: a comedy of justice (1919). If you are reading Cabell for the first time this book is a good one to begin on, for «V contains his philosophy and heights of his superbly fashioned language. With an elongated display of the equipment of dusty scholarship the author sets forth his "Jusgen legend" saying, "With the origin and the occult meaning of the folklore of Poictesme this book at least is In no way concerned; its unambitious aim has been merely to familiarize English readers with the Jurgen epos for the tale's sake. Ana this tale of old years . . . can be given to English readers almost unabridged, in view of the singular delicacy and puremindedness of' the Jurgen mybthos' • The tale tells how Jurgen a poet and pawnbroker, entering the cave on Amneran Heath in search of his wife, Dame Lisa, meets a centaur named Nessus who transports him to the garden between dawn and sunrise, finds the lost love of his youth, is permitted to relive a year of his life, and has other adventures. The story is made up of chapters with such titles as: Why Jurgen did the manly thing; Showing that Sereda is feminine; Old toys and a new shadow; Why Merlin talked in twilight, etc. I t is all told in a whimsical way, with bits of cynical or fantastic philosophy flashing through the narrative. SOMETHING ABOUT EVE; a comedy of fig-leaves. (1927) Gerald Musgrave leaves Lichfield in the year 1805 and sets out on a quest which more or less resembles Jurgen's. He has grown tired of his natural body, which is bored with the love of a good woman, and he wants to visit Antan, where, his illusions tell him, he is to be Redeemer and Emporor. He is, however, waylaid by several women, some in the costume and all in the image of Eve, and eventually he collapses into a respectable career. It is a mystifying tale over which Cabellian experts will gloat; but those innocent of Cabell's artistry will be lost. The unlearned reader will ordinarily have to learn something about Cabell before he can learn much about Eve here. o Campi Coast to Coast By McMahon Is your name Leavenworth? If it is. you might have a scholarship offered by Hamilton college, irorth $500. It is open to all men in America by the name of Leavenworth. A columnist at South Dakota college reports overhearing two girls conversing in front of the book store. One girl was telling the other how to entertain her boy friend. "Ask the fellow to be seated", she said, "and tell him where. Otherwise the poor simp may sit in a chair instead of the davenport".

GRAND THEATER: ---------- Northwest Viking - 1935 December 20 - Page 3 ---------- WASHINGTON STATE NORMAL SCHOOL, BELLINGHAM, WASHINGTON MERRY CHRISTMAS! FROM THE SPORT STAFF Viking JUNIOR VARSITY LEADS CITY LEAGUE Members of WAA Will Vote At Beginning of Next Quarter On Constitutional Amendments Cards May Substitute for Letters After First Class Team Sports Award Dues TV Be Lowered One Hiking Team Each Quarter Recommended Chosen Changes designed to make the WAA constitution a more usable document will be voted on by the club members at the beginning of winter quarter. Lowering of dues, requirements for attendance at meetings, substitution of cards for letters after the first award, and a change in the system of choosing hiking teams are the main revisions. The committee proposed that dues shall be 50 cents for the school year if paid at the first meeting of the fall quarter and otherwise 25 cents per quarter. Formerly members have paid a dollar for the year and 50 cents per quarter. Upon first joining, the WAA dues shall be 70 cents, 20 cents of which will pay for half the price of the club pin. New Rule Suggested It is suggested that any member who is absent from three successive regular meetings shall be dropped from a roll unless her written excuse is accepted by the WAA council. Two possible changes to Article XII on awards are suggested by the committee.. Either . letters shall be awarded for the first time a girl makes a class team for any sport and cards for all teams thereafter, or a letter shall be given for the first time a girl makes a team in each of the different sports and cards thereafter To be awarded a sweater a woman must have received six first class team awards instead of eleven, and six all-star team awards in place of four. Hiking Revised The last revision concerned the hiking teams. The present constitution allows for one team a year. The committee proposes the leader and manager select one hiking team each quarter and an all-star team at the end of spring quarter. Cooperation, sportsmanship, and attendance will be considered in choosing the yearly all-star team. Hazel Oie was chairman of the revision committee, assisted by Dolly Anderson, Florence Lund, and Marion Price. Intramural Games Over For Season "The intramural games have been very successful this year and the games have been exceedingly good," was the statement made by Sam Carver, Intramural Coach, last Wednesday. He requested that the captains hold the teams together as the new season will open the first week of the winter quarter There were seven teams in the league and a large number of men took part in the games. The first half of the season ended last week with the Co-op holding first place, having won all games. A meeting of the managers will be held at 4:00 Tuesday, January 7, in the Men's PE office. The new season starts Thursday, January 9.

X-RAY Cheney Normal To Have Strong Team Phil Rebensdorf, Savage Guard, Will Be Back Again With six lettermen returning to Cheney, Coach Red Reese of the Savages, will have his usual strong basketball team facing the Vikings next year. Chief among the veteran Cheney men will be Phil Rebensdorf, the long shooting guard, who is playing kis fourth year of varsity competition. Rebensdorf led the Savages on the scoring column last year, having an average of nine points a game. Other lettermen reporting for practice included Swede Danekas, a sharp shooting forward, Slim, Eustace, a six foot, seven inch center, West and Kerns, guards, and Bert Anderson, forward. An early season game with a Spokane town team was easily won by Cheney with a 26 to 11 score. Cheney boasts a recod of having no defeats in the past two years on its home floor. ' During the past four years, the Savages have a percentage of .780 and have scored almost three times as many points as their opponents. Made Fresh Eoery Day Mt.

After haphazard checking in the first half, the Vikings came back in the final stanza, to break the 21 to 17 lead the Seattle team had over them and to win the game by a score of 45 to 36. Carver, lanky Viking center, broke loose in the last half scoring 10 points. This brought his total for the game up to 19, making him high scorer for the game. Ryan's playing stood out on the Seattle college team. He scored 11 points from all angles of the floor. He made most of his points in the first half, with only three in the last half. The Seattle team played a fast breaking style of ball throughout the game, giving the Vikings considerable trouble in the first half. They soon got on to the tactics and held their opponents to a scant 15 points in the final half compared to the 21 scored in the opening half. Coach Lappenbusch gave his reserves a chance in the final half. Dzedzic went in for awhile in the first half and again in the second when Dombroski went out of the game on personal fouls. —. o Alexander in Lead In Shooting Contest With another week of the foul shooting contest over. Chet Don-broski and Bill Alexander are tied for first place, both having a spore of 73 out of 100 attempted. Only four weeks remain in the contest until the winner will have his name inscribed on the cup in the trophy case. Bill Taylor holds second place with 84 shots to his credit. Other men who are still in the contest are: Stiger, 63; Shangle, 63; Belcher, 56; G. Moscrip, 54; Gable, 53; Kluge, 46; Eisner, 43; and Cline, 39. The contest is given every year by the student body under the supervision of Sam Carver, intramural coach. It is to run for eight weeks.

Jacobson, of the Jay-vees, and Barnhart, former Whatcom high school star now playing for the Furniture team, were high scorers with 10 points each. Jacobson swished several long shots and made good all four foul shots given him. Both teams started fast, keeping fairly even the first half, with the score 14 to 16 in favor of Normal. Donnie Singer, hard-playing forward, sparked the Jay-vee the first half with his passing and shooting. He scored three field goals. The Jay-vees had the decided advantage in the second half and outplayed the tiring Furniture men. Checking was outstanding; the Manufacturers were held to a lone field goal scored by Haickel. They made, however, seven foul shots caused by the close checking, with Moscrip, Jay-vee forward, going out on personal fouls. o Schedule Prepared For Hoop Season Looking It Over There are two players on the basketball team named Ned Moran and Gerry Muck. In a recent scrimmage, Muck was sent in to replace Moran, so he said to the referee, "Muck for Moran". The ref looked at them and sneered as he said, "Newspaper columnists, huh. Well, I hope your basketball playing is better t h a n your lousy column". Editor's note: The players both hastened to inform the referee that they didn't write that terrible column. As the custom has been in the past, whenever a letter arrives at the Normal school with a fictitious address or without a stamp, it is always sent to the Viking office on the theory that some former Viking reporter has either run out of ink or money. So when two letters addressed to Santa Claus were delivered to the Viking, they were opened as a matter of routine. But we had run into the real McCoy this time and opened someone's mail. So in order to repair the wrong, they will be printed below. Dear Santa, You sweet, loveable, kind, old soul. You wonderful, beautiful, gorgeous man. You sure are swell. Say, Santa, I'd like a little present for Christmas. I want a football team that'll beat Cheney, a basketball team that'll beat Cheney, and a baseball team that'll beat Cheney if they had a baseball team. That's all, CHUCK LAPPENBUSCH. P. S. Also a cook book. Dear Santa, I want a train. I want a boat. I want a bottle of hair restorer, SAMUEL CARVER. With the WAA Strange to say, some of the livest political speeches are written by ghosts.

Up to date the Viking squad has played only the cne game with the State college. Although the present schedule is not definite, most of the games will probably be played as they are scheduled, with a few games filled in later on. The first game next quarter will be played with the Mount Vernon Junior college squad on January 18. It is not decided yet where the game will be played. The University of British Columbia comes to Bellingham to meet the Vikings on January 15. The Vikings will travel to Tacoma January 20 to meet the Pacific Lutheran college. With but one day rest the team will come home and play the Seattle college here on January 22. The team will play UBC again on January 24. On the first day of February the Vikings will meet the Cheney Savages here. The Vikings' next!game will be a return game with PLC here on February 14. In the week of February 22 the team will travel to meet Ellensburg, Cheney, and possibly Gonzaga. If the latter game is played, the trip will be extended one day. Ellensburg plays a return game here on February 27. No new imprints were imbedded in Waldo field's squashy surface this week as a result of the all-too- evident exams—last call for term papers—note books due and wasting more midnight oil. The sports enthusiasts became one-sided for this week and gave all to their "booky natures". With individual sports topping the list for preference in. the recent sports survey, it looks as though the modern trend has hit us. Individualism is apparently to be the keynote of physical recreation. The older concepts that stressed' co-operation are not to be disregarded, however, because its values are numerous and, varied. The advantage of individual activities, especially for college s t u d e n t s is a "carry-over" aspect. Team sports are of little physical value after graduation while any professor can enjoy a game of badminton, tennis, golf, or a good swim or skiing without the assistance of fellow students.

Instead of the regular Kid Party, the first big event on the Women's League calendar next quarter will be a skating party. "It will take place in January, probably during the second week," says. Dolly Anderson, our ever-active prexy. Men students as well as women are invited. The regular rates are being reduced for the occasion, so although there may be several cases of strained knees and ankles, there should be no serious examples of strained pocketbooks. SOCIETY The new quarter will usher in a new series of teas, hostesses for the first one being the Women's League, commission, which consists of the officers of the League and committee chairmen. It has been suggested that one tea next quarter be sponsored by girls who live in town and hence do not come under any special house. EDITORIAL How did youjike the Christmas tree? Well, the intentions were good, and many girls did their share by bringing decorations. The main drawback was lack of something to hang them on. It seems that the Men's Club, which had agreed to do its manly part and furnish foresters for the occasion was hapered' by the unprecedented lack of trees! We fear the Boy- Scout is a thing of the past. BREVITIES Girls of the Women's League commission are planning to spend part of their Christmas vacation hemming tea towels which will be used for drying dishes after the weekly tea. Mary Jane Moergeli announces that there will be a luncheon for all future Women's League assembly speakers. Campus School Donates Boxes For Christmas Third-Graders Entertain Faculty With Party on Thursday; Carols Sung Jack Joly left Bellingham Thursday to go to Phoenix, Arizona, for his health. Each grade in the Campus elementary school has planned its own Christmas celebration. The eighth grade has prepared a box for a needy family. They have worked in committees and planned what articles they thought would be more needed and appreciated by the individual members of the family. They have purchased both necessities and toys for the children, trying to get the greatest variety and most useful articles for their money. The eighth graders have also prepared two plays which they will present informally in their room today. The first, pantomime, will be attended by the younger children in school, and the other by the older ones. THIRD GRADE PARTY Yesterday afternoon the children in the third grade entertained several faculty members in their room. They made all the decorations and refreshments themsplves, working in committees. Each guest had a host or hostess. The children dis played the Christmas gifts they had made. CHILDREN SING CAROLS Directed by Miss Boothe of the music department, the children met in assembly this morning and sang caros. Later each grade caroled to the others, and a group sang at the office of President C. H. Fisher and the business office The Music club of the elementary school gave a Christmas play yesterday. They wrote the play themselves and included several carols. All the rooms are decorated with trees, wreaths, and candles. In many cases the children have made the decorations. o Educational Methods Discussed At Meeting (Continued from Page One) A pedestrian, Rolland, is a chap who tries to interfere with the progress of an automobile.

Eana McGrath, salutatorian, said: "Students on thisprivileged list are allowed to choose study periods, where they will progress to the best advantage, in study hall, private room, or tennis court. Abuse of the privilege or disturbing others would take a student off the list." One speaker answered the question, "Do we have enough facilities other than actual texts to keep us occupied on free days?" "I believe we have. For instance, we have the gymnasium, the manual training shops, the laboratories, the typing rooms, the library—and any number of things if one is ambitious enough to look for them. Speaking of the library, you have no idea of the amount of material to be found in that one small room. If this particular system is retained, the library will necessarily be twice as important as it is now." President Sieg ended the discussion by this remark, "The teachers have felt compelled to go along the old tracks. The old theory that pain is good for us is upset. The important thih~gs in real education are interest and self-activity. This writes the unimaginative teacher off the book. We can't talk education into one. It is the teacher's function to inspire and promote interest. We need studies for the teachers, laboratories for the pupils. This is an historic commencement." nnm/7,- YARDLEY LENTHERIC Evening in Paris Sets t 95c to $14.85 ZIPPER LEATHER".

From the STAR DRUG comes the suggestion of chrome ware, handsome, shiny pieces that will lend a festive air to any occasion. . . . Perfumes, stationery, and Yardley sets would never be amiss. An orchid for her! Well, perhaps not an orchid, but a poinsetta or some other potted plant from I. V.

For mother, choose comfortable, smart patent-leather styles in red or black. And a pair of No-Mend hose to make the gift complete. THE CHILDREN Even the most professional pests and haunters become angelic just before Santa is due. You might offer Saint Nick a hand and give the youngsters something from the STAR DRUG. Their shelves contain puzzles, marble sets, books, blocks, sewing sets, and the original "I yam wat I yam" man, Pop-eye made of soap. FOR SISTER OR GIRL FRIEND If she is away at school, a box of beautiful stationery from the STAR DRUG should guarantee at least a letter a week. Surely nothing could please her more than a photograph of Puget Sound scenery handsomely colored and framed. What girl is not thrilled at the idea of flowers? Let your current date know that absence has not altered the amorous condition of your heart by sending her a lovely corsage from I. V. WILSON, 1330 Cornwall. Even on the coldest of winter morns will she remember you if you give her slippers from HILTON'S. There are soft downy mules in pastel colors and Juliet slippers than which there could be no better offering from the enamoured Romeo. FOR THE GENTLEMEN Gone are the days of beards and Bristles. Only Santa is allowed to flourish luxuriant chin adornment. Father, brother, or today's big moment could go for shaving sets in a big way. The STAR DRUG has them by Yardley, McKesson, and Colgate.

The definition of a penguin— a friendly bird qf the Antarctic region, under whose eye the girls of this school and their invited escorts will have the time of their young lives at the Crystal ballroom of the Leopold hotel, Saturday, January 9, at 9 p. m Sara Jamies o n is general chair-1 man of this quar-1 ter's W o m e n ' s? league inform a 1,;: which is featured!; as the Penguin' Prom. Smashing all precedent, the girls from Edens hall are invited Sara Jamieson to attend, making it truly an all-school function. The ladies do the inviting for this traditional function, and fill their programs by exchanging dances with friends, but the young men are expected to take over the responsibility for the transportation and refreshments. Girls who desire to go must sign immediately on the bulletin board in the main hall. Johnny Miller's peppy orchestra is going to furnish the rhythm for the trippers of the light fantastic. Delicious punch will be served during the evening. The following committees are working to make the affair av grand success: decorations, Connie Inger-son and Letha Kirk, chairmen, Maxine Iddins, Evelyn Larson and Hazel Swisher; programs, Mayre Louise Harrison, chairman, Helen Griffith, and Mary Stearns; refreshments, Nancy Jane Smith, chairman, Elsie Jensen, and Hazel Mayo. o Normal Hoopsters To Engage Frosh In Game Tonight Tubby Graves* Squad Has Edge In Report on Comparative Game Scores Coach Tubby Graves' Washington Frosh have a decided edge over the Vikings in the basketball tilt tonight, according to Coach Charles Lappenbusch. His conclusion was reached by comparing past scores of both teams. The scores by which the Husby Babes lost to both the other Normal schools were much closer than Viking tri-normal engagements. The Frosh team at present has not had the same starting lineup in any two of their games. Coach Tubby Graves has been switching his team to find a winning combination, but to date the Frosh have failed to bring home laurels. Lappenbusch intends to start his present starting lineup in that contest, but they will be playing under a handicap, tired from the game Thursday night. Coach Lappenbusch especially fears the ability of the elongated center whom the Frosh are supposed to have. o President Goes To Legislature Fisher Addresses Rotary Club on Principles of Education Monday Noon Normalite HUEY P. COMPOSES tt * * * PREXY FOR BENNY * * * * COMMUNISM! * * * * DUES By Syd Lines TODAY carries the latest laugh on that American court-jester, Huey P. Lbng, when it published last week a story on the southerner's latest bid for publicity. Huey has written two marvelous new songs. The first, believe it, beloved, is a college song which he called in his own original style, "Hello, Tennessee." Intended to spur the Louisiana State team on to victory over Tennessee university in their nationally publicized football struggle, Long's initial Wagnerian attempt went by the board when the Louisiana band could not afford the trip and therefore the song was not sung at the game. Louisiana, as you recall, was defeated. The second classic which, according to Huey, is a sure-fire national hit, bears the title "Every Man a King." This royal phrase implies the completing "—but only Huey dictator." Like other great writers such as Schubert, Brahms, and Beethoven, Huey required inspiration for this masterpiece. So he arose early one morning at 6 o'clock and listened to the birdies chirp. That crack about the weather information was the second good one prexy has gotten off in assembly. (Continued on Page Two) President C. H. Fisher left Wednesday for Olympia to speak for the Bellingham Normal before the legislature. Among the items of interest to the school which are to be considered are the biennium budget, the building appropriation and changing the name of the school. Monday noon Mr. Fisher addressed the Rotary club on "Principles of Education in Democracy." He expressed the belief that the public schools are the nation's hope from the standpoint of democracy and that they are the most important factor in making democracy a success. He advocated equal educational opportunities for all from the kindergarten to the university, with particular attention given to individual needs. In his opinion, this form of education should be financed by. the federal government. Musical Art Lecture In Assembly Tuesday The application of correlated sound and color will be the theme of Dudley Crafts Watson's music-picture symphony lecture in assembly, Tuesday, Feb. 5. As a result of many years of study in the fields of art and music Mr. Watson, lecturer for the Fine Arts department of A Century of Progress exposition in Chicago, has recently perfected these programs. He maintains that every tone has its related color and that this is the relationship between art and music. The assembly will be held at 1:30 to 3:00 instead of the regular hour, omitting all 2 o'clock classes. c» Editors To Broadcast Fourteen College Editors To Speak on Radio Fourteen college editors including Joe Connor, editor of the U. of W. Daily, will speak over KOMO and a nation wide NBC network Saturday, at 3 p. m. They will discuss student opinions on current campus questions. Those editors who will be included on the program will represent Stanford, California, Cornell, Chicago, Michigan, Yale, Princeton, Louisiana State, Minnesota, William and Mary, College of New York City, Columbia, and Vassal-. Albers, Zambas Are Elected In Klipsun Contest Students Are Voted Most Popular On the Campus At Election .... Held Yesterday Large Percentage Votes Prizes Awarded Victorious Pair. By Annual Christine Albers and Tony Zambas have been selected as the most popular woman and man, respectively, on the campus. This was the result of the election held yesterday, sponsored by Normal's annual, the Klipsun. Winners Are Prominent Miss Albers is prominent in school affairs. She has been acting president of the student body this quarter, vice-president for four quarters, and school pianist for several years. Last year she won the state piano contest sponsored by the Women's Music club. Miss Albers, born at Lynden. is a graduate of Whatcom high school in Bellingham. This is her thirteenth quarter at Normal. Zambas, the most popular man, is a basketball letterman from last year. He turned out for track in the spring, and is a member of the basketball squad this year. Zambas hails from Raymond. This is his fourth quarter in school. Vote Is Heavy The man candidates, nominated by ballot, were Art Bagley, Bud Vander Griend, and Tony Zambas; the woman candidates were Christine Albers, Connie Ingerson, and Louise Schulz. Of the 500 voting in the election, 400 cast ballots in the popularity contest. Miss Albers will be awarded a box of candy, and Zambas a half year's subscription to Esquire, magazine for men. Their pictures will be featured in the 1935 Klipsun. This is the third annual contest sponsored by the Klipsun. Two years ago the winners were Doris McEl-mon and Vernon Leatha. Last year Harriet Rickerson and Otto Finley were selected. Men's Club Informal Will Be Broadcast Over Local Station Music Will Be Furnished By Ken Roberson's Orchestra In Crystal Ballroom The Men's club informal will be held in the Crystal ballroom at the Leopold hotel, Saturday evening, February 2. Ken Robertson's orchestra will furnish the music. The program will last from 9 to 12 o'clock. Invitations have also been sent to the movie stars, Loretta Young, Clark Gable, and Jack Oakie. The dance program will be broadcast to those who are unable to attend from 9 to 10 through the courtesy of radio station KVOS. However, the Men's club will furnish its own announcer. The committee in charge is: Mon Orloff, chairman, Don Richardson, and Emil Starlund. Tickets will be on sale all day Friday. o Football Made Topic At Board Meeting Week-end Vacation Dates Are Changed Owing to unfavorable weather conditions, the Viking week-end party has been postponed until February 15, 16 and 17. The party, originally planned for February 1, 2, and 3, will be held at the Mount Baker club cabin at Glacier. The entertainment and invitation committee, Ralph Shenenberger, chairman, Bob Lindsley, and Nancjj Smith, will issue printed invitations. On the food committee are Maxine Mickle, chairman, Joan Hoppe, and Margaret Morse. Transportation is in charge of Phil Campbell. Former Normal Students Have Parts in WSC Play Two former students of the Normal school now attending Washington State college have parts in the school play there, "Big Hearted Herbert." Katherine Bowden has the lead and Rhoda Le Cocq a leading character part. Miss Bowden was a member of the Bellingham Normal Drama club and both girls axe ex-members of the Viking staff. o Adult Education To Be Made More Available That adult education will become a regular function of the public school system throughout the country within the next decade, was the opinion expressed by Dr. Lyman Bryson, professor of Education at Teachers' college, Columbia university. He spoke at an education forum of the New York City Federation of Women's Clubs. Members Consider Legion's Offer To Sponsor Games Football was the main topic of discussion at the Wednesday meeting of the Board of oCntrol. Th American Legion's offer to sponsor one or more of next fall's games was considered and Gordon Richardson was appointed to contact them. In the tentative schedule, the season opens October 5 with a University of BC game and ends with the Viking homecoming tussle against Ellensburg on November 16. Joe Hager was placed in charge of the quarter social to be held by the board, January 14, at Normal-stad, at which time various policies of the school will be discussed. This week's meeting was the final one for the outgoing members, Vic-president Christine Albers, Anabel Keller, and Ralph Shenenberger. PTA To Sponsor New Family Film Members of the Whatcom high school Parent-Teacher association are sponsoring the film "The Little Minister," which is to be shown at the Mount Baker theater from January 7 to January 9. Twenty-five per cent of the money from all the tickets purchased through the association will go to the association's treasury. "Part of the proceeds will be used for welfare work," stated Mrs. Al Mercy, who has charge of the affair. Katharine Hepburn, who gained fame in "Morning Glory" and "Little Women," will play the lead in "The Little Minister."

This may be a very fine definition for news outside of school life, but it • doesn't cover the ground as completely as it . . . might. For the colleges of the United States we -,-. would like to suggest the following definition: "When 72 per cent of the associated students vote in a primary college election—that is news." For the last few years the interest shown here in • student elections has been near its lowest ebb. Forty- : .two per cent of: the associated students voted in last lt;; year's primaries, and only 4 8 per cent were interested "enough to go to the polls in the finals. Along came -" this election and bang, things started popping right and ;'left, aided somewhat by the usual amount of mud- ' slinging. Perhaps also the ideas so freely expressed , in Political Highlights helped arouse political feeling. Still another possibility is that the appearance of two women on the presidential horizon had the desired effect of dividing the school Whatever the reason, 72 per cent (over 450 students) voted in last Thursday's primaries Although even that is not as many as should have been inter- ' ested; the 72'per cent vote is high enough to excel election records for many years past. 'Round and About In the corridors: A profusion of vari-colored smocks . . . Next in order will probably be old-fashioned gingham aprons . . . Someone loudly moaning about the "tremendous amount of dirty politics" . . . we know not whether it was national, local, or school politics, but we have definite ideas on the subject. Oscar Starlund and Monford Or-loff sauntered into the editorial rooms of the Northwest Viking Tuesday admittedly seeking publicity, so here it is. It seems that Orloff is an exceptionally good talker, (says Starlund), so he sought out the town's broadcasting station and practiced his art on its officials, winning his way into their hearts and practically talking himself into a job. Anyway the outcome of all this is that for an hour the Men's club dance will be heard over the air, with KVOS footing the bills. That is talking; Orloff! It's June in January—or at least that's what two Normal co-eds must have thought when they took a 15-minute dip last week in the icy waters, of our own Lake Waldo, formerly known as Waldo field. The bathers wore galoshes to protect them from crabs and things, and carried an umbrella apparently for no reason at all. Marye Louise Harrison and Maxine Iddins are the mermaids. ••••• Did we see you at the basketball game last evening? Does This Explain It? . . . E x c l u d i n g the split vote theory already advanced gt;-as-to why both women prexy candidates were elim- : mated" in the primaries, we suggest that the wrong technique was employed by the women to get the votes. About 10 years ago the same question con- : fronted the voters, (a woman or a man president) but the associated students as a whole did not know about ..the situation until they visited the polls. At that time ;Jt-was permissible to nominate sticker candidates, and .the women made good use of the opportunity afforded them. The campaign slogan was "Shall 100 rule 1 0 0 0 ? " , and results were conclusive—favoring the 1000. Rush demand for aspirins, men's style. Truly high-schoolish was the stuffing of the Klip-sun contest ballot box with a man's name appearing as the most popular woman on the campus. Shall we consult our. psychology instructors, or perhaps—? Committee Not Scotch ^Projjabjy, fewer than, fifty couples will be at the Men's club danc,e. next month, y,et the committee in charge plan to make it a big affair:. Fifty-two'dollars apparently makes no impression on- those who arranged fdr'ari4orchestra. v; Can it be that ihe only club which includes all the men'of the school can not find a more profitable'---way ! td Spend money, xollected quarterly, than through expenditure such as this? ._...' And then, have you heard about the man who was in such straitened circumstances, that he was all bent over from hard work? o What's What The outstanding scribble in this week's fashion notebook was Maxine Iddins' black tunic with red plaid skirt and trim. Smart, and the very thing for campus or street wear. How do you like Tommy Keene's brown and cream checked scarf? Dashing and rather naive for a man, you say? Yes, and they are all the rage in the fashion centers where they know what's what! Navies are coming into their own —more than ever before. Fashion experts everywhere are heralding a navy blue spring. Gowns in varying degrees of dressiness are being shown in navy, and accessories of every description are smartest in that color. To prove this spring's navy sweep they are showing pastel tones in frocks, with navy accessories, something never before done. From an exclusive gown establishment in Los Angeles comes this statement: "Navy supersedes all other colors in importance for spring." Think about that for awhile, and the result will be a costume in navy for the nearing season. Boys—Attention Scene I at School "Of course I'm going to the Women's league informal. (Didn't I rate a new gown for the occasion?) Will you trade a dance with me? (Gosh, I hope she does. This fellow is the hardest guy to get dances for!) Oh, that's too bad. Well, if someone cancels a dance let me have it, will you? By the way, who are you taking? Chuck Notsohot? (What was that about this being my lucky day!) You certainly ought to have a nifty time. ((She'll be' lucky if he takes her out for a coca-cola afterwards.) Well, I have to dash.- See you there! Scene II at the Dance "Here we are dancing at last. (I thought we'd never make it.) Thanks a million for the corsage. I've never had a gardenia before. (Why Bob dances loads better than I remembered!) We're trading the next dance with Charlotte and Jerry. How's the weather up there? (Off my feet, you big Swede!) No, it didn't hurt at all. Doesn't the time go fast? (I wish I hadn't exchanged so many dances.) Intermission already? (If I drink any more punch I'll founder for sure.) Aren't you glad it didn't rain tonight? (It would have ruined my slippers if it had.) Don't you love these moonlight waltzes? (After all, this is a waltz, not a rhumba!) Darn shame this is the last dance. (I had a much better time than I expected.) Here comes Jimmy with our wraps. (Hope to heaven we go somewhere afterwards.) Oh, I really don't care where we go. (The heck I don't!) You say we're..going to the Shell? Oh-h-h-h Bob!!" Silver Screen Reviews Via ad Libertatem All the good old days of the gay '90s—the bicycle bult for two, the rustle of bustles—are featured in "Sweet Adeline" at the Mount Baker this week-end. We find Irene Dunne leading this tale of New York and Hoboken which is chucked full of the atmosphere of the period You'll like it! Three guesses—who are England's favorites for the past year? According to a popular vete that was taken, George Arliss takes the blue ribbon for the gentlemen, with Clark Gable second and Wallace Beery third. Norma Shearer appears to be the feminine screen star of the year followed by Marie Dressier and Greta Garbo. Thirty thousand dollars for a shot that stays on the screen for 15 seconds . . . a scene depicting the horrors of the Black Hole of Calcutta is a feature of the thrilling story of the man who conquers India, and the woman he loved, "Clive of India." o Normalite (Continued from Page One) Should the time come when Jello needs a starring artist to replace Jack Benny . . . Because millions of copies of Liberty are sold weekly at the news stands, many1 should be interested in the political nature of this magazine. Even W.S.N.S. students probably read it more frequently than they do such publications as American Mercury, New Republic, and Scribners. Though my memory may be somewhat hazy, I believe Liberty started out as a competitor of Collier's. It contained .similar subject matter until Bernarr Mac- Fadden purchased it with some of the money he had gained telling and re-telling-the'old story of the Great Sacrifice for the edification of adolescent echool girls and fat, romance-starved matrons. The mighty-biceped physical culturist, who justifies mass starvation with a version of the doctrine, "survival-of the fittest," has since utilized Liberty as a vehicle to disseminate his own congenial political beliefs. In the February 2 issue appears red baiting which would make Hearst blush for envy. An interview with Mathew Woll brings forward facts of the red menace. According to this labor leader, longshore strikes and anti-war congresses are a part of a plot to overthrow the government. (The reader may be interested in learning ^that Mathew Woll, besides being connected with the A.F. of L. is also vice president of the National Civic Federation, through which organization Nazi anti-semitic propaganda, imported to this country by George Sylvester Viereck, was distributed. Vie-reck, from whom Liberty readers may soon expect an article, is charged by John L. Spivak on good evidence with being a paid Nazi agent.) Another phase of MacFadden's attitude is his open-armed acceptance of Russian emigres Kropotkin and Raziwill, both of whom wrote for the latest issue. But Liberty's political line is most clearly drawn in its editorials. "Communistic agitators in our public schools—hang the traitors," shrieks MacFadden, trying to make a few idealists the scapegoats for our present predicaments. These words might have been taken ---------- Northwest Viking - 1935 February 1 - Page 3 ---------- WASHINGTON STATE NORMAL SCHOOL, BELLINGHAM. WASHINGTON 301 Vikings Are Playing Husky Babes Tonight aoE I O E Viki ing What's The Score By Bob Lindsley Cheney Is Good Peterson, Rubensdorf Star Cheney 50, Bellingham 16! It looks as though Cheney has a great team this year. We can't believe that the Vikings are that far below the usual caliber of tri-normal basketball. It seems that the Savages are a team that is playing Coast conference ball, batting in a tri-normal league. In Resbendorf and Peterson, Coach Reese has a pair of men that could well be playing for most any of the Northern universities this season. In all the years we've watched basketball we've never seen anyone who could drop in the long shots with such unerring accuracy as these two men do. Viking Quintet Smothered By Savages 48-19 Norsemen Outclassed by Larger Team's Display of Speed And Shooting Crucial Game Due Bartons vs. Portsiders A hot fight is going on in the intramural league this half between the Portsiders and Bartons to see who will be the ones to play the Northwest Vikings in the play-off for the championship. To date these teams have each won five straight games with no defeats. Next Thursday afternoon at 4 o'clock will be the pay-off when these two teams clash in a game in which the hopes of one or the other will take a hard fall. These two teams are evenly matched and should provide a fast game. The chances of the boys from Bartons to win will depend on their ability to stop Meyer, southpaw center, who has been hitting the basket pretty regularly of late and has developed into a real scoring threat. However, Bartons expects to win by means of a fast, short-passing attack with the Jacobsens, Turk, and Severins on the scoring ends. Remember, 4 o'clock, Thursday, February 7. Cheney Forwards Star Zambas, Carver, Stutz Impress as Viking Standouts Our nomination for the most thankless job in school is that of refereeing the intramural league. In our estimation there are none bett e r than Coach Sam Carver for this job. Its' a Toss-up, Folks Pick Your Own Winner "—and in this corner, ladeez and gentz, we have One and one-half punch Guglomo, the pride of Dan-1 inary tussle the Northwest v i k i n Ss iels, at 170 pounds, Let 'er go!" * " ~ ~~1- t"~" *"'" Displaying a fast passing attack and some dead-eye shooting the Cheney Savages last night trounced the Viking five 48-19 at the Whatcom Hi gym. The Norsemen were outclassed from the outset by the bigger and faster Savages who seemed bent on rolling up as large a total as possible, and relentlessly, pursued their task. The game opened rather slowly with both teams checking carefully.; Carver, center, put the Vikings into an early lead by opening the scoring with a clean shot from mid-court, and it seemed for a while as if the Vikings might hold their own. But as the minutes flew by the Cheney side of the score began soaring with Helton, classy forward, soon leading them to 21-9 half time score. Second Half Fast I n the second half, the fast Cheney forwards, Helton and Peterson continued their effective battery against the Viking basket. Kerns, guard, also tickled the twine for several points with some shots from out in the open. Zambas, Viking guard, gave the Normal rooters a flutter, of hope now and then with his offensive drive, while Stutz 'was taken out of the game on fouls. For the Vikings, Carver and Zambas. each dropped in six tallies, besides playing nice floor games. Stutz' defensive play in the backcourts was impressive, especially his ball hounding and recoveries off the backboard. Savages Too Big The aggressiveness of the Savages, their effective passing and chiefly their advantage in size spelled doom for the Vikings from the outset. With "Midget" Eustace, 6 ft. 7 in., center playing the role of "feeder", the two fast forwards were able to continue beating their telling tatoo on the Viking nets during the entire fracas. I n a rough and tumble prelim' Spring Sports Get Ready for Season Golf and Tennis Schedules Are Nearing Completion With Old Sol apparently winning his fight with Jupe Pluvius, the golf and tennis bug has come out of retirement and is preparing for a big season. Coach Sam Carver has already lined up several matches and is working on others. The net men will open their season on the local courts against CPS. The tentative date has been set for April 25. Other matches will be played with the U. of W. Prosh and Cheney and Ellensburg in the tri-normal meet to be held at Ellensburg. At the present time there are only two net lettermen in school, Joly and Mullen. PLC Is First Match The links men will open their season April 17 on the Lakeway course against the Pacific Lutheran club-swingers. Other matches have been scheduled with the U. of W. varsity, CPS, and the other Normal schools. Only one letterman from last year's powerful team has returned so far this year.

"I have spent nearly $20,000 on that girl's education," complained the aggrieved father, "and here she goes and marries a young feller with an income of only $1,000 a year." "Well," said the friend of the' family, "that's 5% on your investment. What more can you expect in these times?"—Vancouver Province. Now that the snows have melted and the north wind has ceased blowing, Coach Carver has turned his thoughts to track, and at this writing they are very pessimistic. Only three men of last year's team are enrolled in school now, but Carver has hopes that other veterans will join the school next quarter. Included in this trio are Arne Johnsen and Don Holder, low and high hurdlers, respectively, who are good for points in any meet, and Tony Zambas, discus man. Field Prospects Slim Some other prospective point-getters are: Kenoyer of Anacortes, Taylor of Fairhaven, Van Sargent of Whatcom, and Wickstrom of Edmonds, all distance men. For the sprints Carver has: Hansen of Fairhaven, Strong of Anacortes, Hudson of Edmonds, and Guglomo of Raymond. Hurdlers who may make a showing are Stuurman of Lynden, and Daniels, an Everett boy. The lone man in the field events is Clyde Radder, who hails from Lynden. Coach Carver has arranged for meets with CPS, Cheney and the tri-normal which will be held at Ellensburg. He also has plans for a meet with the Washington Frosh. o A nickel isn't supposed to be as good as a dollar, but it goes to church more often.—Oneida Union. With the WAA Our Aim is to Serve and. Please Groceries, Ice Cream Highland Creamery 615 High St. Phone 182 By Jean Hoppe Here's the story that never grows old—the WAA trip to Heather Meadows. Each week there appears on the WAA bulletin board the same neat little announcement — "The WAA hike has been postponed for weeks," and each week the number which fills this space is increased by one. The only satisfaction to be gained is that the limit is twelve. "All we need to start the crib and badminton tournaments is for a few more players to sign up," says Sam Carver. Those desiring to participate in either of these tournaments should sign the list placed'on the bulletin board in the men's P. E. office this week. Drawings will probably be made Monday and a schedule arranged. Crib, or cribbage, according to Webster, is a game of cards played by two, three, or four persons, the chief object of which is to form various counting combinations. About thirteen prospective cribbage stars have signified their intention of entering the match. Badminton is no new sport here, as a tournament was held last quarter, but the present effort is to get more people interested in it. Those who have played the game say that one doesn't, have to be an expert to enter the series of matches to be staged. Eight singles and three doubles teams have already signed up. o Whatcom ---------- Northwest Viking - 1935 February 1 - Page 4 ---------- WASHINGTON STATE NORMAL SCHOOL, BELLINGHAM. WASHINGTON New Plan For Recreation Will Be Used Soon Varied Program of Supervised Games Will Be Offered to Student Body Opening Is Postponed Recreation Promised Every Day Under New Program While it has been definitely established that a varied recreational program will be carried out at the Normal school soon, the final plans are not completed. The coming change in the Board of Control, a 'delay in the arrival of necessary equipment, the pending appointment of a supervisor and the needed assurance of student co-operation— all these complications have prevented the naming of the opening date. Next Monday is the date suggested now. When the entertainment stai-ts, a program will be offered which the committee hopes will appeal to all students. Ping-pong, chess, checkers bridge, pinochle and other form of cards will be played at first. Other games will be added later. Tentative Schedule Formulated A tentative schedule of events has been made and at present is as follows: Weekdays, 6:45 to 8:00; Friday 7:00 to 11:00; Saturday, 2:00 to 11:00; Sunday, 2:00 to 10:00. Cards will be allowed only on Fridays and Saturdays. A paid supervisor will be present at all times to aid in the entertainment and take charge of the equipment Students will act in this capacity on all days except Friday and Saturday, when faculty members will be in charge. The supervisors will be selected by the Board of Control, and the same two people will have charge all quarter. Louis Shaffer and Maxine Iddins, in charge of equipment and supervising, say that all equipment has been ordered in Bellingham. Much of the equipment comes from the Columbia Valley Lumber company and it is expected that delivery will be completed soon. — o- Home Economics Courses To Be Offered in Spring W Club Skating Party * Enjoyed Many Students in Attendance To Enjoy Skating Party Last Friday Night By Ruth Carmichael Despite the dizzy careening around the arena, the spills, the bumps, and the bruises the students who attended the W club skating party last Friday night insisted they had one swell time. The door prizes were awarded to Louise Vistaunet, Johnny Yarr, and Jim Miller. Don Holder, Gene Waara, and Arne Johnson were pleading with the good skaters to skate with them to keep them from slipping. Miss Anna Ullin and Miss Mildred Jewell -were the only faculty members in attendance. o Scott Has Lead in Drama Production George and Dickinson Also To Take Leading Parts Cubs' Pitiful Pleas I Purposely Ignored Pleas for mercy from the un-licked Viking cubs were ignored by the hardened Viking reporters at Nancy Smith's home last Friday evening when the quarterly initiation was held. But the cubs were not the only actors though they did. have to ruin their dignity by sitting on the floor and spoil their soft white hands by washing dishes. The sedate editor doing square dances, a certain sober columnist amusing himself at the game of "Sardines," a veteran reporter singing ALL ninety-nine verses of "Barnacle Bill," were just a few of the gayest numbers on a gayer program. Though sighing with relief when all was over, the cubs were happy to have been initiated into the mystic "Knights of the Pen." Litterateurs Try For Story Prize English Department Plans to Aid Entrants in Viking Contest, Ends April 1 Former Normal School Graduates Pay Visit to Good Old Alma Mater and Faculty Members Heading the cast for "Twelfth Night" are Helen Scott as Viola, Maynard Ponko as Duke Orsino, Virginia George as Olivia, and Victor Dickinson as Malvolio. Comic relief is offered by Herbert Wilkin- ! son and Glen Greseth as Sir Toby and Sir Andrew, Bob Hartley playing the singing fool, Feste, and Marion Cole as Maria. Other members of the cast are: Marshall Bacon, Joe Thomas, Jack Joly, Lillian Culver, Helen McKen-zie, and Harlan Hawkins. Assistant to Director V. H. Hoppe in this quarter's production is Faith Scheyer. o International Relations Plans Winter Initiation Departmental Heads Return From Trip Rich and Hopper Report Crowded Conditions in Schools Two electives will be offered in Home Economics for spring quarter. Home Economics 101, which is advanced cookery and table service, must be preceded by 51 in case of any student minoring in Home Economics. If the course is being taken as an outside elective the only requirements are Nutrition and some work in foods in high school. A $2 laboratory fee is charged for this class because at least once a week the members of this group prepare lunch and serve it to themselves. Those students staying at the dorm are given a refund on their bills there. Home Economics 61, clothing, is the elective being offered next quarter, and will come three times a week for double periods. Both are three credit courses.

Formal initiation into the International Relations club will be held next Wednesday evening at 7:30 o'clock in the club room at Edens hall. All students desiring to join the organization should see Roger Mullen, club president, or Miss Nora B. Cummins, adviser. Discussion at the meeting will be concerned with the situation in Japan and other topics of a miscellaneous nature. Students are urged to watch the bulletin board for further announcements. _ o - Valkyrie Club To Give Tea Sunday Afternoon For Retiring Officers Valkyrie girls will give a tea for club members and retiring officers Sunday afternoon between 2:30 and 4:30, within the Edens hall club room. New officers, who were elected last Tuesday are Gertrude Hall, president; Louise Vistaunet, vice-president; Helen Scott, reelected secretary - treasurer; and Beth Hankins, ICC representative. Five new members have been taken into the club this quarter. They are Norma Jane Coraline, Doris Con-do George, Mary Jane Moergelie, Gertrude Minich, and Helen C. McNeil. That the group should have a reserved section at all basketball games, and that Valkyrie sweaters should be worn every Tuesday was agreed at the meeting Tuesday. After visiting 35 schools and 120 graduates of this institution, Miss Elizabeth Hopper of the appointment bureau and Miss Mary E. Rich, director of the Campus school, report that their two weeks trip proved both profitable and interesting. Overcrowded rooms, the beginnings of school libraries, and of nursery schools, and the fact that conditions for next year are dependent upon the action of the legislature were some of the situations noticed especially by Miss Rich and Miss Hopper. The trip gave an opportunity to bring the Normal school into direct contact with the teaching field through brief conferences with the superintendents and principals of the schools as well as former Nor-malites who are teaching in Cent r a l i s Kelso, Vancouver, Seattle and neighboring places. With two months time in which to develop stray plots into worthwhile creations, potential authors at the Normal are urged to enter the short story contest sponsored by the Story Magazine at all colleges in the United States. The two manuscripts adjudged best by the English department will be published in the Viking and submitted to the national contest for prize awards. . Registration in an English course is not necessary to permit entry into the contest. Miss Lucy Kang-ley and Dr. A. C. Hicks report their willingness to aid struggling novices. Entries must be brought to the Viking office before April 1, 1935. They should contain not less than 1,500 words nor more than 6,000 words. Prizes of $100 and $50 will be awarded April 15 by the Story Magazine. Among the students who have signified ther intention of competing in the contest are Wilson Way-lett, Harry Goheen and Glen Greseth.

The club plans to hold the party on Friday, February 15, at 8 o'clock. Dancing will be one of the evening's diversions. Although a program had been arranged for the meeting, it was cancelled, due to conflict with the Cheney - Normal basketball game.

GOOD ' . ! * • * * GRACIOUS • • « * GOODBY By Sammie Carver Hello every pipple—tis surnmah— the time when cherries are ripe and Bellingham people say to California people, "Why we ain't had weather like this since 1860". And the time when old grads who've been "out in the field" come back to swing a wicket pencil over Normalite, the light of the Normal. * * * * * The Regatta presents an interesting spectacle. Big boats sliding through the blue followed by gnatlike crafts leaping and humming along like misquitos at a picnic. Kinda like life, too. The big fellows get there if they plug along steady-like and the little fellows outwit them if they're quick on their feet and smart on the pass ups. * * * * • Sol Lewis came up and talked to ' a Journalism class here when I was a frosh greenie. We have only just noticed—"Sweepstakes and Division "A" prizes in the better newspaper campaign of the Washington Press Association were won by Sol Lewis, publisher of the Lynden Tribune". So we pat our chests and bellow —"Ah yus! We knew him when—" * * * * * "Strike Weakening" "Picket Lines Invaded" "Longshoremen May Go Out for 24 Hours July 5" "Bargemen Vote Strike"— Headlines depicting the sane,, calculating intelligence of the American people. When in the breadline John Doe whimpers helplessly—"I'd do any kind of work—any kind! I got a wife and kids". And when he gets a job—and somebody gets on a soap box and talks in a loud voice—John Doe mighty quick forgets how it feels to be bread-linish and fevers his brow to be loyal to "the people". * * * * * Sedro-Woolley, swathed in beards of the season's most popular colors, greets the gala 4th with loud Haloos. The ladies attire in whoops and bustles to mincingly follow their burly males' hill billy lead. They're bringing in horses and steers and donkeys and'bands and even the proverbial man on the flying trapeze. An' folks—I reckon I kin say in awl seriousness—"tharll be a hot time in the ole town thet night". * * * * * In Japan—we read—a lady is paying for her husband's injured pride. She brought her lovers right under his nose to show them off (the lovers, not the nose) and Mr. Ping Pong Chop Suey rebelled violently. Maybe if the courts would do a bit of likewise for our wandering femmes there'd be hem and ecks for hungry ex's and less hungry ex's looking for hem and ecks. * * * * * Somebody killed a rattle snake that was fifty inches long, eight inches at the waistline and had eight rattlers. Where I taught last year I saw one safely inside a nice strong box kicking up his heels in snake-like wrath.

Sight-seeing and shopping trips will take up the excursionists' time in the most English city on American soil. The ship will take the north passage through Pole's pass, skirting Lummi and Orcas islands to the south. Sinclair island and the site of Viqueen lodge may be seen from the water. The ship will follow the southwest shore of Vancouver island to Victoria, arriving there about 10:00 a. m. Tour Planned The sight-seeing tour that has been planned will take the pleasure seekers through the residential dis trict, to the Butchart sunken gar dens, and through the famous Dominion observatory where the sec ond largest telescope in the world is located. Here President C. H. Fisher has arranged for a noted astronomer to talk to the students Tickets for students will be on sale Monday and Tuesday, July 8 and 9. "I am urging every student who plans to go to buy his ticket early," says Dr. E. A. Bond, chairman of the recreational committee "After Tuesday, the sale will be open to outsiders, and if students wish to obtain tickets before the boat is sold out, they must do so early." Curios Available ' "Special notice should be given to the curio shops of the city," contin ues Dr. Bond. "Victoria is noted for them, and a person may take up to $100 worth of merchandise back to the States, duty free. The shops will be open all day." The cost of the round trip will be $1.50, and of the sight seeing trip,- $1.00. o Baritone Soloist Will Sing Here July 12 Assembly Will Feature Robert Crawford, Soloist And Composer Robert Crawford, baritone singer, engineer, composer, and conductor, will present a program of vocal selections in assembly Tuesday, July 12. As a boy of seven, his early musical work was begun on a dog-sled and in his home, a snow-bound cabin in Alaska. He took up engineering, later deciding that music was his real profession. As a result he holds many important positions in the musical field. He has had equal success over the radio, both as soloist and conductor. Mr. Crawford has written a number of compositions, some of which he will sing in his program. He was head of all musical activities during his attendance at Princeton university. He later studied in Paris and New York. Library Schedule Special Hours Arranged For Students Friday With school not in session the remainder of the week, the library will be closed Thursday, July 4. Reserve books may be checked out at the regular time, 4:00 p. m., on Wednesday, with both the reserve and two-day books due at 9:00. o'clock the following Monday morning, however, for the convenience of students, the library will be open Friday afternoon from 1:00 to 5:00, and Sunday afternoon from 2:00 to 6:00. A large display consisting of books suggested for recreational reading has been placed in the lower hall of the library. Anyone interested desiring any book of this display, may receive it from the Circulation desk. Christensen and Flick, New Board Members, Interviewed As to Lilies, Dislikes, and Thoughts About School According to Julia Christensen, newly elected member of the Board of Control, fire drills are numbered among her pet hates. "Especially when they come at 11 o'clock at night." So saying, she prepared to brave) the cool night air of the Dorm fire escape. Back again, she continued the interview. Miss Christensen served previously on the Board as vice president. She now acts as summer representative. "Teaching," She says, "is one of my chief joys in life. I really like' it. ^ r the past year I have taught in Shelton and I enjoyed it." She returns tWs summer to work for her bachelor or arte degTee in Edu-the 'students as "Tony" has been appointed as another summer representative to the Board of Control. "At the moment I have no particular likes or dislikes, such as snakes or strawberry sundaes," says Miss Flick. She enjoys all sorts of sports. She took an active part in them when she attended this school. She traveled to California during her freshman year to represent the school at the Mills college Athletic' conference. When asked about the new re-, creational program, she said that! she thought that it was a good idea and that she was interested in the program outlined for the summer. "I like teaching, and expect to teach Main tfate: next year in the Indian Costumes And Totem Poles •* Shown in Display Most Common Phases of Tribal Artistry Featured in Exhibit By Art Students The advanced art students last week completed an Indian unit feat uring the most common phases of Indian artistry. The work is on exhibit in room 304 of the art department. One group consists of a series of ceremonial masks, each carrying a meaning by use of symbols, and por traying a certain type of ceremonial dance. Totem poles, made from heavy paper painted thickly with tempera paint are also displayed. Motifs used are Indian symbolic animate and birds. The. Indian costumes displayed are models suitable for intermediate or primary grade children to make and wear in developing the Indian unit in the State Course of Study. Designs are Indian symbols and borders. Rug designs of the type the Hopi Indians are shown in color. Pictures of Indian pottery, in color, with original symbolic characters and designs are shown. In connection with the pottery are lists of picture symbols with their respective meanings. Symbol letters, or picture stories, on imitation animal skins are also on exhibit. One ceremonial doll, used in certain of the Indian spiritual dances, in vivid color with a feathered head dress was made by Lilian Jones. o Rain Is No Threat To Skyline Hikers Forty-Five Students and Teachers Reach Top of Ridge With cries of "Excelsior" the Skyline hikers gained the top last Saturday noon. Nothing daunted by the steady drizzle that poured down most of the way up the mountain these forty-five hikers climbed higher and higher. Fortunately, they did not share the fate of the hero of the poem, for they reached the top of the mountain. However, it was so misty that the "other side of the mountain was all that they could see". Miss Weythman, head of the Physical Education department, who led the hike, said that nearly all who started finished the hike, the weather having little effect on their determined spirits. The group left Bellingham at 7:30 Saturday morning and began the climb about 9:30. They arrived back the same evening with nothing more than a new and different ache and pain. • o Blue Triangle Sponsor Sucia and Puffin Island Trip Independence Day Fossil-hunting will be one of the features of the trip to Sucia and Puffin Islands July 4 on the Scout boat King Thor. The Blue Triangle is sponsoring the trip and hope to make it an annual affair for those remaining in town ror the holiday. Clouds prevented the sailing trip last Sunday although about twenty-five students bluff ed the weather mnn out and went anvwav to the Victoria Trip Soon Above is the harbor at Victoria, B.

Educator Sees Deficiencies in Modern Setup Clear-Sighted Analysis of Problem Of Youthful Crime Given In Periodical By Wilson Waylett In The Educational Record for April, 1935, is a significant article, "Directing the Energies of Youth Into Proper Channels", by Spencer Miller Jr. It is quite encouraging to find the director of the Workers' Education Bureau of America making a clear-sighted analysis of the problem of youthful crime, even if his proposals for remedying the causes seem somewhat muddle-headed! • Concerning these causes Miller frankly states: "We deny to millions of our population the right to the very basis of good life and then meet solemnly to inquire why, in spite of this fact, some of them' are not good citizens. We give our support to a social order which makes for dependence and insecurity, and then wonder why the old attitudes of self reliance and individual security seem to be disappearing".

It was a sincere opinion, and although perhaps not entirely justified there were points brought up that are well worth consideration. The faculty is not paid for the number of students with whom they become acquainted. However they should be willing to know at least their own students during the quarter. This school is not comparable to large colleges or universities. At such schools it seems to be the exception for a faculty member to be personally interested in a student. The classes here are not so large or so many that all sparks of friendliness should be lacking in an instructor. As far as the students themselves being good mixers, we agree entirely with the opinion that they are not. Especially does this seem true during the summer quarter. To the old student falls the duty of starting the fireworks and being friendly, but the new students must not be cold toward this school spirit. In the past the school has seemed to get acquainted quite well through mixers. This summer, however, a number of students have expressed themselves saying that no attempt has been made by the sponsors of the dances to acquaint those present. A Get Acquainted Week seems childish, since most of the students in school this quarter have been teaching. The idea of saying hello to everyone in the halls is all right on paper, but it just doesn't seem to work. About the only thing we can do is to encourage the new students to join the WAA, or sign up for intramural sports in the case of men. Also plan to participate in the Tuesday evening trips and the Saturday hikes. Should Be Interesting We would just like to see the outcome of an all-school election this quarter. We are curious to know whether there would be a clean sweep for the women for all offices. It seems probable that there are many women in school who were in on the "Shall 100 rule 1000?" election propaganda a few years ago. Have they buried the past? Men are up against quarter, however. only a 1 to 6 handicap this Students Worthy Of Choice It Does Not So; Never Overstep Bounds; It's Bad FISHER IS FLUSTERED Found—the guy responsible for Keyhole's degeneration. Maybe one of these days HARRY GOHEEN will learn that copy editors are hired to read copy, not to censor the features they don't like. . . .

Gee, I would like to be spoilt. While walking down the street the other day I saw several students loafing in the sunshine and it reminded me of a poem I had read many years ago. Not knowing the author I cannot give him credit but I will quote. "I wish I wuz a little rock, A sittin' on the hill Doin' nuthin' all day long Just a sittin' still. I wouldn't eat; I wouldn't sleep, I wouldn't even wash, I'd set and set a thousand years And rest myself by-gosh.

King Cotton Is in Front With Practicality Plus Attraction Farewell, Faded Frocks After reading "A School Teacher Talks Back" in the current issue of the American Mercury, I am reminded of the old guessing gamei we used to play— I say: "I'm thinking of something that's nervous, frustrated and that wears shoes that turn up at the toes. What is it?" Then you say: "Is it animal, vegetable or mineral?" And there we stop and decide to go and play a nice, exciting game of checkers—For, after all, What is it? One wonders after reading this article by Anonymous who didnt dare to sign her name for fear of losing her job;—however anyone who has to hold a job for seven years with as little to work with as she exhibits, should not start to worry now. Sara Jamieson and Gordon MilUkan, who were recently chosen to represent this school at the Pacific Northwest Institute of International Relations, are well deserving of the honor. Miss Jamieson has done a lot of work in connection with the Inter-club council, planning luncheons, and preparing for nominating conventions, without receiving much publicity. Millikan, as student prexy, has spent a large amount of time, and has carried a heavy responsibility for .the past year in a job that should be paid. Furthermore it is probable that he will gain more from the meeting and speakers than anyone else in school. Dr. Henry Lester Smith, president of the National Education association, was amused when asked if women teachers should smoke in public places. Wil-lard E. Givens, secretary of the same group, stated that the association considered the matter one of individual liberty. We can at least commend the group on not praising the habit. I know you have all heard of the lovely cottons being shown for wear at any occasion, but perhaps you have not been properly introduced to their appropriate side, their beautiful side, and their economic side as all pointing toward one goal— "an easy wardrobe". You sigh and lament to the ready-to- wear clerk: "Ah, yes, they are beautiful, those ruffles and pleats and ribbons and flounces, and the materials are so sheer and pretty, but that will all be gone when they are washed once!" Wake up, Fair Sleeper, for that sort of frock has passed on. These new cottons are as beautiful after several washings as they were on the rack in the shop. Every cotton shown—the sheers, the ribs, the coarse weaves, the seersuckers, and the organdies, is especially designed to launder beautifully. The three things you fear in laundering lovely things—namely, fading, shrinking, and spoiling the finish are overcome in these new fabrics. The sheer cottons—lawns, voiles, and organdies—in ruffly evening frocks, launder as nicely as the piques and prints in sports togs. The ribbed materials never shrink if cleaned in luke warm suds and rinsed in water of the same temperature. The coarse cotton weaves wash beautifully if the same procedure is used. A few words to the wise and wary before venturing out on the greatest and gloriousest of Fourth of July ventures: Don't be foolish and get drowned, the school can't get along without you. Don't drink too much "lemonade" at the family reunion picnic. Don't hold a firecracker too long after lighting it (or have you heard this one before?) Don't mistake the fireworks for a mock war and start shooting. Well, we have about used up the words the editor said to write, and will close with something new in the way of snappy send-offs: "Hope you have a lovely time, my dear. Remember me to the folks". o Simply Modernites Greatest Epical Illusion—Earth, Sky, Fire and Death—A Fantasy By Old Ickey Kibibob Kibobin (retired) SETTING The yellow flame seethes on the blackened hearth, The bitter smoke curies in puffing swirls, Toward the sooty chimney's heart Lights conjured into varying burrels, Along the rafters dancing. . . .

WASHINGTON Frender's Filibusters Are Victorious in Two Contests; Take an Undisputed Lead In Intramural Hoop League Vikings Score Defeat Over U of W; Swampy Diamond Is Battleground for Freak Game Featuring Many Errors Kleaners Lose First Game To Leaders After Two Straight Wins . Losers Miss McCIurkin Angel Stars at Guard By Ball Handling Fine Minus the services of McClurken, -who turned his ankle in the game with the Robbers last Thursday, Karby's Kleaners fell before the onslaught of Frender and his mates yesterday afternoon in the game which decided the first half championship. For the Filibusters Angel at guard played his usual game. Five minutes before the game ended, Frender left the game on four personal fouls. With only four men in harness the Filibusters managed to turn aside the threat of the Kleaners by playing keep-away past the center of the floor. Angel proved particularly adept at this phase of the game. Erickson with 12 and Carboneau •with 7 points, scored high for the losers. For Frender's Filibusters Shenenberger and Angel led with 11 and 8 scores respectively. The final score of the game was 29 to 24. The contest last Thursday between the Kleaners and Robbers resulted in a victory for the Kleaners. It was by far the cleanest game played thus far this season. The Kleaners were never threatened and won easily by a score of 42 to 28. Erickson and McClurken again hit the hoop with regularity while Robinson with 17 points played good ball for the losers. The Filibusters forged into a tie for the league lead by coming out on top in their tussle with the Highbinders last Monday. As usual Frender retired gracefully at the request of the referee, but before departing slipped through 10 points to lead the scoring. He also turned in a nice checking game. 26 to 17 was the count at the final whistle. "When You Move" —COURTEOUS —CAREFUL —COMPETENT JY1 V/ U £ J Li STORAGE PHONE 70 Miller Sntherlen Printing Co.

One of the big mysteries Bob Becken o f t h e p r e S" ent session is the unwonted silence of Bob Becken, who used to rattle the shower-room windows with boisterous song. Beck seems to be a chastened man "since he was graduated into a teaching job. Perhaps it's all for the better, but for my part I miss the alleged music, the torrential rain of notes, that used to mean that Becken would soon be in for a towel. It's just another sign that we're all getting old, I guess. . Sports fans are passing up a good bet when they fail to attend the intramural basketball games in the small gym. The best and the worst points of the game are amply demonstrated— with the worst seeming to predominate. The tussle between Frender and Hager and their teammates was, save for the first six minutes, a shining example of how basketball should be played. While*it may be fun to come down the floor with. horns, bells, and whistles and pin some opponent to the wall, it looks lousy from the sidelines. But the clean, hard-checking ball of the first six minutes is grand to watch. Let's have it for half an hour next time. * * * * * Norman Bright, the Bellingham distance man, has placed first in the Far Western trials, and will compete today and tomorrow in the AAU National meet in Lincoln. His time at San Diego, 4 minutesl 14.5 seconds, was considered remarkable for a mile on the new southern track. He should do two seconds better in the Nebraska meet. Will he beat Cunningham? We hope so, Norm—we're all for you.

Last Thursday evening an enthusiastic group of equestriennes went for a trip along the shores of Lake Whatcom, stopping at Nor-malstad to eat their lunches. Sigrid Wiberg is at the top of the ladder in the badminton tourney. "There is still a chance for those who want to play badminton to turn out on Tuesday nights, as most of the ladder games are played off at different times," t was Miss Weyth-man's comment. Eight girls are vying for .the championship in the archery tournament. Elizabeth Schuehle is at present at the top of the ladder. 'Volleyball and riding also attract a number of recreation fans on Thursdays. Tennis enthusiasts have their regular turnouts on Monday afternoons. Seven girls are entered in this contest, of which Ruth Neal is in the lead. Each sport has a student manager. Sigrid Wiberg, former WAA president, is general manager of women's sports. Tuesday finds the school's hiking fans as well as women following in the wake of Dr. E. A. Bond to local points of interest.

The subject was opened with a group discussion of how the parents and grandparents of the children became citizens. Upon discovery that some of them had been foreign-born, they commenced the study of naturalization proceedings. At court the pupils were most interested in reasons for the judge's refusing citizenship or continuing the cases.

Roger Chapman. One day, such as last Saturday, can do more harm to the peace movement of the world than days of conservation and constructive peace education. Flags waving, trumpets blaring, soldiers marching, and bands playing can so arouse the animal, war-loving emotions of man that the anti-militarism movement must begin almost anew after each such display. Memorial day is to honor the dead, but the dead do not need honoring. Death adds glory to an institution that needs no glorification. Robust life, as seen in marching soldiers, adds only vigor to the picture of war. It is a memorial to the glorious patriotism of war, to the virility of life and to the courageousness of death. If on Memorial day inmates of veteran's hospitals could be paraded in review, we would have a different picture of war. Men without, arms, men without legs, men with parts of bodies and faces, men coughing out their lungs, men in rages of insanity, men in living death, they are the real memorials to war. _- W.S.N.S. State officials of Nevada certainly have an eye for money. No better business move couTd have been made than the legalizing of gambling and simplifying of divorces. While other states are frantically advertising for tourist trade, Nevada is reaping her profits. She needs no advertisement. —!—W.S.N.S. Since all these movie actresses are confessing their ages for Lux, probably no one will be sensitive about his, or more likely, her, age. From now on all our interviews will begin perhaps with, "I don't mind .you knowing it. I am ''. _ WS.N.S. A California judge has recently ruled that a trespassing dog may be shot on sight be he mongrel or pedigreed. That treatment might be a little severe on trespassing children, but some means of protection is certainly necessary. —W.S.N.S.— There has been a fear among some of the faculty that people would think the name Viking was associated with Bellingham Normal, because of the number of Scandinavian students. We assure you that is not the reason. W. N.S. The Vikings toere a stutdy_ race Of Erics, Liefs, and such. And so, for them toe named our teams ' To add a vigorous touch. But now from "Minnesoty" come Their progeny by scores. To meet the spirit of their race They storm the Normals doors. And that's the reason for the Bergs, The Olsons and Petersons, And Johnsons, and Andersons, and then : More son's, and sons, and sons. — W.S.N.S-—— I have received some criticism for being so bold as to express some of my pet views in this columns, but I justify my action with the philosophy of Walter Lippmann, who says, "Men cease to say what they think, and when they cease to say it, they soon cease to think it." •-W.S.N.S, The Supreme court of the United States last week upheld the right 6f citizens ot pledge loyalty to a "red" flag. The court declared void the Calif ornii statute which classes as a felony to "display any red flag Or other device as a sign, symbol, or emblem of opposition to organised gbtenunent or as w , stimulus to anarchistic action/' • l U e f ^ dk^ i ^ tor ibe "Maintenance of SH ]i^MmMm0W:^W^^^^^M ALUMNI DM l i t OF GRADUATION EVENTS NEXT WEDNESDAY IS DATE FOR CLASS DAY PROGRAM, WITH CUP AWARD LISTED.

The contents of the Klipsun include: Administration, Classes, Activities, Organization, Training School, Athletics, and School Life. Worthy of special notice is the group of scenes in the first of the book. These pictures are of a new type and mounted in the modern manner. Although the theme of the Klipsun is typically Norse-Scandinavian, the color work, arrangement, and content is worked out in a modernistic style. Beginning with campus scenes displaying the administrative unit, the library, the main steps, Edens Hall columns, and a Puget Sound sunset the content blends into the interdispersed portraits of students and faculty exceptionally well with a message from President C. H. Fisher, and commentaries on the various a(iministrative staffs. The Student Activities, following The Classes, give a complete and fine representation of -both student officers, students involved, and respective achievements—particularly well: to"' publications, ^dramatic productions, and debate. Under the organization section the, major social, organization, and athletic clubs are given large group 'illustrations together with a few lines of explanation below each page. The Training school, coming next, is illustrated by ten pictures of laboratory work conducted in the training' school, with a brief summary of the entire program of training school activity. "Athletics" are - given even more prominence than in the 1930 Klipsun, by larger illustrations and a Dedication of the placque honor- . ing Normal students who lost their iives in the World War took place at the l l o'clock assembly hour last Friday..; Singing of the school song, "White and Blue", by the student body opened the program. This was followed by a stirring address given by President C. H. Fisher. Following this address, James Butler read the poem, "In Flanders' Field". America was then sung by the entire body. Miss Mary McDonald read the poem "Spires of Oxford". This poem closed the program 4 P.M.

Hikes wil predominate, with intramural sports running strong. It has always been the policy of the school to offer an athletic and.outdoor program that will allow everyone an opening for participation. This summer is no exception. Whether the school goes in strongly or inter-school sport work or not, it is vital that they have an all-round program at home. An Illinois court rules that the husband who took the family bathtub with him when the family was separated must return it by Saturday night. That's our idea of a "dirty" trick. Tree for "Trees" Author A living memorial to Joyce Kilmer, author of the immortal poem, "Trees," was planted in the form of an elm in a plot of ground in Central Park, New York, the other day as Father John B. Kelly, spiritual adviser of the Catholic Writers' Guild, blessed the ground in which the tree found root. The above picture shows the ceremony attending the tree planting. Adviser and Business Manager of The Mr. Carrell Leaving for Northwestern Viking Are Caught After Long Chase tempore contest and the oratorical contest in the state of Nebraska one year. He also won the Province of the Platte oratorical contest in a competition between all colleges in the states of Nebraska, Kansas, Colorado, and South Dakota. During three years of his college career he worked for the Lincoln, Nebraska Star, a newspaper of that city. For two years he covered sports and during his senior year did general reporting. Mr. Carrell will work for his Doctor's degree next. year. "If I could have my choice of things I'd like to be a girl—" o begins Jack Greaves in his poem entitled "Sophomores" in the 1931 Klipsun. Have you read it? Do you like it? Well, Jack is no amateur poet. During the Fall quarter of this year, before he became business manager of The Northwest Viking, he had a regular column of verse under the r heading of "Greayings." Jack is one of the few fourth year students in school, and has worked on The Viking for eight quarters. Last year he was editor of the Spring track book. He has served two quarters as b u s i n g The Viking and has just been elected for the Sum-in^ vqlip^r; He plans continuing • in educational work and remarked: "I am going to spend the first half of my life in school." When questioned as to a probable occupation, he said he would be a "professor of something or other." Mr. James Carrell is leaving the Bellingham Normal this quarter to accept a position in the fall at Northwestern University, near Chicago. He has been a member of the faculty for a year and a half and has been' one of the most sought after instructor for organizations adviser of any of the faculty. This last year he acted as adviser of the Northwest Viking, of the Klipsun, the Freshman ciass, and managed debate. Mr. Carrell graduated from Wes-leyan University in Nebraska, and has done two years graduate work at Northwestern, where he received his master's degree. Next year he will teach Speech Pathology, in the Speech clinic of the University. His other duties are to manage the National Oretor-ical, and Verse -Speaking contest and to organize a national debate tournament open to all colleges in the United States. During the four years'he attended Wesleyan university, he was a member of the debate team, and during his last two years his team won'all of the fifty scheduled[debates. Mr. Carrell won both the ex- Mr. J. J. Handsaker, the associate secretary of the National Council for the Prevention of War, gave an interesting talk in Tuesday's assembly. Hate War .Mr. Handsaker said "Europeans hate and fear war and are trying everything they know to prevent it." He said 6500 boys were killed every day during the war. Ten million were slain during the whole period of struggle. Is cost the world 337 billion dollars or $300 every minute from the birth of Jesus until the present time, he declared. Mr. Handsaker also said that if there should be another war it would mean the ruin of civilization. . o Recent Publication i Reviewed by Fowler "Ways to Teach English," by Thomas C. Blaidsell, one of the most recent textbooks on the teaching of English, was reviewed in the current number of the English Journal by Herbert C. Fowler, formerly chairman of the Bellingham Normal English department, who now is studying at New York university. Mr. Fowler, who was granted a leave of absence for this year, will continue his work in New York next year also, it was announced recently. He is completing his requirements for a doctor's degree, in addition to his teaching duties in the school of education at New York ^university. The book, "Ways to Teach English," is praised by Mr. Fowler in his review. "It will cheer the teacher who has been in 'the system' for many years, but who now feels the stirring need for reinforcement. "All this is to say that Dr. Blaid-sell's book provides the most complete coverage (to borrow a business term) of the subject that has yet appeared. It is obviously the product of long years of experience, and is a sincere exposition of what the author believes to be the soundest principles and practices in the teaching of English," the review continues. "Although freedom and fluency of self-expression are included among the objectives, the author's emphasis throughout the book is upon formal correctness. Drills are of primary importance. "In many ways the most satisfying section of the book is the last, Teaching Appreciation. Although Dr. Blaidsell believes that there should be a course in the history of literature, he does give it less emphasis than formerly obtained in high school English courses. His concern is for the understanding and enjoyment of literature itself. "Perhaps the outstanding defects of Ways to Teach English (though not all teachers might consider them defects), are the authoritative tone of the book, as evidenced by the multitude of 'musts' and 'don'ts' and the tendency toward formalism. Granting these shortcomings, the volume still remains a notable contribution. In the hands of an inspiring, creative teacher with a sense of values, it will provide countless excellent suggestions for the improvement of English teaching." Alumnus Expresses Pleasure At News President C. H. Fisher received a letter about two months ago from M. L. Howell, a former graduate who was graduated in 1927. He started his letter by telling what a great surprise he had when he was given two copies of the Northwest Viking last X-mas day by a former graduate of this school. Mr. Howell also states that he was very much surprised and as well pleased to read that President Fisher traveled by airplane when he was on his Eastern business trip. Mr. Howell is very much interested in aviation therefore joined the navy in order to. get a complete course. Mr. Howell was scheduled to leave San Diego training station two or three weeks after Christmas. He was chosen one of the three of 109 candidates who was to go to the Navy aviation school in the East. Three Bellingham Normal -graduates will be at this school this summer, according to Mr. HowelL As a compliment to the Northwest Viking, he states that of the niany coUege papers he has seen it ranks high in th^ list: v,'.-,' ^ ^ , gt;/§ v DISTRIBUTION OF YEAR JBOOrCBEINQ FINISHED (Continued from Page One) more compact recording of events.

CO^OP BREAKS T i l HALF BALL PENNANT KREW CHAMPS OF FIRST HALF WILL BE NEXT FOES IN TITULAR BALL SERIES. TONG WINS BftlCHf FAILS TO ATTAIN RECORD TOP EXCELENT TIME MADE, BUT RECORD NOT SHATTERED. Even though Norm Bright did not break his field record in an exhibition run last week, we still think, on the basis of his season's marks, that he is still one of the outstanding milers in this country. His mark of 4:25 is much faster than a great many of the larger college athletes liave been able to attain this season. Talk as you may about the big league ball clubs producing snappy, fast ball, we still maintain that the intramural game last Monday between Reynolds Hall and the Kitchen Krew would make any leaguer envious. The Tong finally emerged victorious, 7-6, after a two-run rally in the last of the seventh. Splitting four games with Idaho and Washington State, the U. of ~W. baseballers won their sixth Northwest championship in the last eight years. The Huskies had a tough battle to win the coveted flag, but finally pulled through with twelve wins and four setbacks. Nerve J We say that Boone of Washington State has plenty of it. In the Northwest Conference track meet last Saturday, Boone twice reached up into the ozone only to feel his bamboo break under him, but each time he came up smiling and on his third attempt cleared, thirteen feet. Although they had not played a game for several weeks, the Co-op intramural baseballers came through with a surprise 18-4 win over Reynolds Hall to cop the second half championship. They will now meet the Krew in a three game series for the season flag. Bill Frisby, U. of W. Frosh sprinter, took an exhibition century dash from Percy Williams, 1928 sprint champ, in a very decided upset last Saturday. With only twp or three weeks of training behind him since his very severe knee injury, Williams found himself unable to get going in the old stride that has carried him to victories over the world's greatest. The first charge down the field of an energy-filled, peppy squad of football players had nothing on the . rush for the new Klipsuns yesterday. Wednesday morning the Varsity and Frosh crews from the University at Seattle left for the anwifal regatta on the Hudson. Coach UI-brickson is very confident that his crews are much faster than last year, and although not promising victories in each race, he prophecies that they will not finish last Interest in the Summer quarter's athletics in the form of intramural contests has already been stimulated. Two or three basketball squads are in the making and with baseball and a continuation of the ladder tournaments the next three months should be very active for all men caring to participate. Earl Fralick, a former high school track star of this city, has signified his intention of entering the annual ten-mile marathon held July 4 at Seattle. Fralick stands an excellent chance of, placing high in the contest and has entered strenuous training for it. Last week he took forty laps around the Normal track and made the ten miles in sixty-eight minutes. There is one dentist for every, 1,700 persons in the United States. Hungary is such a self-sustaining cpuntr^ tiiat salt is said to be the only 1topd product it is obliged to ''import. '•;,.:: . '••*£. Shades of thrilling extra inning baseball games, last season's basketball league, and decided upsets! Nothing more could be asked as far as tight playing and thrilling games as have been played in this season's intramural baseball league. The terminating of this season's race ended exactly as did the intramural basketball season of the past Winter quarter. As you will remember, in the basketball league, the Philos copped the first half flag and tied with the Thespians and Men's Club for the second half pennant. In the play-off the Thespians trounced the Philos and then in turn lost to the Men's Club. The Philos won the play-off with the Club. Now let us view the baseball race. The Kitchen Krew packed away the first half flag and tied with Reynolds Hall and the Co-ops in the second half. In the play-off this week the Hall Tong dropped the Kitchen Krew, 7-6, in one of the finest games of the season. The Tong pushed over two runs in the first inning and held their lead until the first of the sixth, when the Krew poled out several hits and pushed two men across to put them in the lead, 6-5. In a last inning drive the Reynolds squad connected for several hits and, coupled with two bad errors by the Krew, came across with the necessary two runs and the game. Then Tuesday evening the confident Tong crossed bats with a scrapping gang from the Co-op and came off second best with a stunning 18-4 defeat plastered against them. The winners poled hits to all corners of the lot and with several boners pulled by the seemingly over-confident Reynolds team, came away with the victory and the right to season's championship. The first game of this series will be played Monday afternoon at 4 o'clock on Waldo field. o Seeming to have reached his peak, Norman Bright was unable to crack his field record of 4:25 in a feature race lia§t Friday. His tune for the exhibition was 4:26.4, which was very good considering the condition of the track and the Unfavorable warm weather conditions.^ He was paced for the first half mile by Eddie Duyff, and Mel Eagan set the going for the final 880. ..^ Bright started the race at a fast pace, going the first 220 yards in the neighborhood of 26 seconds. His time for the first quarter mile was 61 seconds. At the half mile marker Duyff was relieved by Eagan, who set the pace for the remainder aoi IOI MWmW^U 301 IOI HUGH MIRACLE , . r Guest Conductor FORMAL DECLARATION: Last week my worthy contemporary cally ed me the "chiseler elite," and since reading, the column I think the general consensus of opinion is that I should give up columning entirely and go in for chiseling.

At the start of the last lap it was very obvious that the Viking, star was a very tired young man. But calling on his last ounce of reserve he finished the last 200 yards with a terrific drive for the tape. It is notto be said that the run was a failure because any runner who can step the mile in less than four and a half minutes can certainly be crowned a success. Bright has made a very fine mark for himself this season and has run some remarkable races. He has received recognition from several of the larger newspaper sports writers on the Coast. A certain writer from Seattle saw Bright make his present field record a week or so ago and stated that in another season Bright would be running under 4:20.

It used to be extremely bad taste to have holes in your clothes, but this year the more you have, the smarter. Fact is, it's the only thing to do. You've probably noticed that in the formal gowns, it's the eyelets with lace and net that carry off the honors right and left. Then we wait out on a tour to count the many places where eyelets may he seen and used. Wv found every shop carrying blouses of this entrancing material—or blouses with trimmings of it. Handkerchiefs had borders or comers of eyelets; gloves had cuffs of eyelets; shoes had black eyelets over white, or brown over white, or some other clever combination. And, most amazing of all, even purses had eyelets for trimming. If it's Nautical it's Nifty! PPPPP

La FoUette, Jr., Will Deliver Address •at Church _'• • • IS A PROGRESSIVE LEADER Is Son of a Former Presidential Candidate Senator Robert M. LaFolIette Jr., Wisconsin's famous and America's youngest senator, will speak next Monday evening, November 6, at 8:15 p. m., in the First Christian church, on Dupont street, on the subject, "What the Progressives Are Fighting For." While not only one of the youngest members of the Senate, Mr. LaFolIette, publicly referred to as "Young Bob," is also one of the most popular leaders. He is 35 years of age and a son of the late Bob LaFolIette, outstanding United States senator and presidential candidate on the progressive ticket in 1924. Of the progressive leaders there is none more prominent than this young man from Wisconsin. At the last national Republican convention, the greatest speech of the meeting was made by "Young Bob," causing such a stir that even the press stands applauded. Excerpts from the Washington Merry-Go-Round, Washington, D. C, publication, say, "Today he is one of not more than half a dozen men in the United States Senate who are first rank in public speakers:" An article by Clinton Gilbert, observer of affairs in Washington, written in a weekly publication, says of LaFolIette, "He always sees things exactly as they are, is moderate and extremely likeable, and has the lev-elest head in the Senate." Mr. LaFolIette, formerly scheduled to appear at the Normal school auditorium, will speak at the First Christian church instead, so that there will be ample room to accommodate the crowds that are anxious to see him. General admission will be 25 cents, with reserved seats selling at 50 cents. Bellingham State Normal students will be admitted on their student activity tickets.

Students Vote Against War Ninety/-nine per cent of the University students quizzed in a poll conducted by the University Daily, voted against the United States joining England and France in a war against Germany. One hundred and seventy-six out of one hundred and seventy-seven students believed that the' United States should not fight again for European nations. '-'• One of the most common reasons given for their attitude was that we should stay away from European conflicts as much as possible because of the great expense and loss of "Both Your Houses," by Maxwell Anderson, will be reviewed by Mr. V. H. Hoppe of the Speech department in the November 10 assembly. Maxwell Anderson has written the outstanding plays "What Price Glory", "First Flight", and "The Buccaneer". He is also author of a volume of poetry, "You Who Have Dreams". "Both Your Houses" won the Pulitzer prize for the leading play of the year. Walter Winchell says of it. "The most stinging indictment the United States lawmakers have ever had thrust down their throater-Maxwell Anderson's best play since "What Price Glory?" —o Photos Are New Freshman and Sophomore Group Pictures New Feature Group pictures of the freshman and sophomore classes is a new feature to be ordained this year in the 1934 Klipsun, according to Gordon Richardson, editor. In past years only pictures of underclass officers have been taken. New members appointed to the staff are as follows: Jane Kindall, associate editor; Beth Hankins and Louise Schulz, assistant school editors; Ralph Shenenberger and The-ona Flick, assistant sports editors; Nancy Jane Smith, assistant activity editor; Margaret Chester and Don Norlin, assistant art editors. Contracts have been let to Western Art Engraving Company, Seattle; Sandison's, Bellingham, photography, and Union Printing Company, Bellingham. Other features of the 1934 annual are a hard cloth cover and wood block prints to be used for end sheets and division pages. All football pictures have been taken and at present junior-senior class and faculty pictures are being taken. o Normal Boards And Presidents Meet Together Our Prexy Attends Seattle Meeting Where Change of Name Is Considered At a meeting in Seattle, Friday, attended by President C. H. Fisher, presidents and trustees fronveach of the three state Normals discussed questions of important bearing on the administration of the schools. The proposed changes in naming the Normal schools of the state were taken up and the various names considered. It was proposed that' the Bellingham Normal should be known as the Western Washington College of Education and the others as the Central Washington and the Eastern Washington Colleges of Education, respectively. Among the topics discussed was the question of abolishing the life diploma. It was decided that it should' be necessary for holders of life diplomas to attend school at least one quarter in every five years. A motion was made that the board go on record as being unfavorable to admitting sororities and fraternities to Normal colleges. The financial outlook was also discussed. o Artistic Students Change Classroom To Forest Aspect Class Members Go' Back Once More To Childhood Days Vikings to Battle St. Martins Team In Crucial Game Vikings Are Set to Get Victory at Olympia Field Tomorrow Afternoon The Vikings are out gunning for a score! That's the team's by-words, and that's the students* chant at the football team this week prepared for its next game,, which will be played tomorrow at 2 p. m. against the St. Martin's Rangers at Olympia. The team fell six inches short of touchdown last Saturday against C. P. S. They are going south to get at least one score and also to bring home the bacon in order that this school may celebrate its first victory, in many, many games. Team to Show Staff Even games like last Saturday's tangle do not count in the win column for the Bellingham team. Tomorrow they will be out to defeat the Rangers and show both the school here and the Lacey boys that they have the stuff in them. St. Martin's itself has not fared so well this season. Last Saturday they met the U. of W. Frosh and were defeated, 15 to 6. If comparative scores mean anything the Rangers' score looks a lot better than Bel-lingham's. 22-to-0 loss. Previous to this they lost to Monmouth Normal, West Seattle A. C. and C. P. S., 6 to'0. Their lone win was over Pacific Lutheran. Rangers Strong at Center The ends of the line will have to be run consistently by Bellingham backs if the center of the Rangers' line lives up to advance dope. The center and the two starting guards, Haggardy, Oldham and Hurney, respectively, all are big experienced men and ^should make the going plenty tough.

Club Initiation of new members took place at the International Relations club meeting last Wednesday evening- at Edens hall. About twenty-five new members were initiated. The initiates were given red, white and blue ribbons with I. R. C. written on them, which they are to wear for a period of two weeks. One of the features of the initiation included asking the initiates a few questions' on international subjects to test -.their background on world subjects^ Following the initiation the newly-elected officers were installed. A Student's International Relations conference will be held.on the University of Washington campus during the Thanksgiving holidays; December 1 and 2. Any student interested in world co-operation work is invited to attend as the conference is scheduled to be both interesting and educational. The registration fee will be ohe dollar. The regular Northwest conference of International Relations clubs will be held -in Tacoma, Wash., March 16 and 17, 1934, at the College of Puget Sound. —_—o—: . .' Singer Presented Norwegian Singer Is to be Heard Tuesday's Assembly Faculty and students of the Normal school will have the opportunity of hearing Mrs. Nan Dybdahl Wiik, soprano, who will be featured in the Tuesday assembly, November Mrs. Wiik is a young Norwegian singer who made her debut in Milan in 1924. She was first heard in this country in 1925 as soloist with the University of Oslo chorus, and since then has appeared in many leading concerts. She came to the West to reside in 1928, resuming her concert work here, and wherever she has sung she has won a secure place in the hearts of her audience. The fact that Mrs. Wiik has been re-engaged six times at the Normal school shows the appreciation of her fine art. She will be accompanied Tuesday morning by Mrs. Anton Beudall, flutist. Student Assembly And Mixed Chorus Student Chorus of Forty Voices Sing in Assembly A special feature of the assembly today was the initial appearance of the mixed chorus. The chorus of forty voices was led by Mr. Donald Bushell, director of the music department. The chorus sang "Sweet and Low" and "The Viennese Lullaby," and also assisted the student body in the singing of three of the school songs, "Alma Mater," "White and Blue" and "We Will Sing ,a Song to You.". The yell leaders, Bill Allan, Melvin Munson and Vernon Leatha, con ducted a short pep rally.

The drive is from November 7.-20, Now for Some REAL Action .'.'7 At least two of the semi-dormant campus organizations come forth with a real excuse for their existence. The W club and the Men's club have organized a paddle squad. There has long been a need for just •-.such an all-yeaV group to take charge.of "chiselers" at Viking athletic contests.. Will You Vote Tuesday} One of the distinguishing characteristics of a well educated citizen is the intelligent exercise of his franchise. Next Tuesday the student body will go to the polls to determine the candidates for the general election. Primary elections have never brought forth an overwhelming response in this institution. It is to be hoped that at least enough students will take time to cast their ballots to justify the cost of such an affair. Certainly in a teacher training institution one would expect tofind a greater sense of civic responsibility than we have had in the past. : o Despite the Depression Despite the depression, the school buildings and grounds are being kept in good repair. Recently the plumbing in the nurse's office and other parts of the building has been repaired. Just this week a modern fountain for the main hall has been installed. Hereafter when students lead themselves to drink they will be able to get plenty of good drinking water. '—:—: o = Another Step Forward After many months, of hard work by the committees in charge, the point system for extra curricular activities is beginning to function. It is designed to limit the number of outside activities in which a student may participate. We have long needed a system to check the over-ambitious who often work to the point of permanently endangering-their health. Under this new plan faculty sponsors will rate the work done by students which should gradually eliminate those who accept positions for honor and let others do the real work. Perhaps the greatest permanent benefit is that hereafter the Appointment bureau will have something definite to give superintendents besides records of scholastic achievement. Investigations by prominent educators show that students interested in worthwhile" outside activities while in school tend to make better teachers. ' This scheme deserves your whole hearted support. It has all the earmarks of a splendid piece of planning. It is a decided step forward. There was once a young man who ^was; trying, to make a train. Every time he met a lady friend of his he would have to stop, set his suitcases down and tip his hat. After meeting several acquaintances he began to be a little bit annoyed. The result was.a bright idea which is now patented and in the files in Washington, D; C- The young man decided to attach a little spring to his hat. All that was then necessary was to nod: the head and the hat would bob up and down, making a very satisfactory substitute for hat tipping. No fooling, that gal carries her own shovel. If you- don't receive invitations to these so-called "elite" gatherings, it is not because you don't use a- certain brand of soap or widely advertised mouth wash. It's for a much more obvious reason, according to the dirt going about the campus. The column I turned out last week was about as wild as a glass of milk. Unless I make dirrrty cracks about people my weekly effort is a failure. That is what I get for starting out with a semi-Winchell column. Well, dear readers, I'm leaving the- dirt digging to Sammy Winchell Carver.

Not only did the Vikings make up for their previous bad showing but came very near carrying away the honors, when Sinko, the man with the snake hips, wormed his way through a hole made by Finley, Smick and Ullin, and- ran eighty yards only to be downed by Carlson on the two-yard line. On the next play, a spinner through the line, they gained a yard but were penalized five yards for off-sides on the following play. C. P. S. started clicking and held them for downs, then kicked to safety. Later, in the second quarter, Normal received a fifteen-yard penalty on their twenty-five-yard line. This put the ball on Normal's ten-yard line, forcing a kick. The kick was fumbled and a C. P. S. man got through and covered the ball, making a safety for C. P. S. In the last quarter, C. P. S., by its strong kicking, forced Normal back to its own ten-yard line. Bagley dropped back for a pass only to have it blocked by Slatter, C. P. S. right tackle, making another safety.

Jack Clark and Hugh Lovegren, respectively, in semi-final matches played last weekend. The tournament so far has come along as expected, as both of these men were favorites to enter the finals. . Miles shot a neat 79' ' over the Country club course last Saturday when he defeated Clark, while Lindsley scored a 77 against Lovegren over the Lakeway course.

At 4:50 o'clock George Al-bee's Co-op team played the Men's Legislation (Continued from Page Two) P.L. Game Nov. 11 if the money is .there. In order to make the Education bill of financial aid to the state schools new taxes will.have to be levied, since the bill does not allow the use of any money already coming to the state from established revenue legislation. In the face of these facts the Education bill seems a dismal failure since it does not provide the money so necessary to the support of schools at the present time. This is not true however since the bill provides a standard of state support which will someday be realized. Secondly, it gives legislative approval of equalized support on the part of the state government up to the extent of fifty per cent of current costs. The only revenue act of importance passed by the 1933 legislature is the so-called sales tax from which the bulk of the state support specified in the Education bill will be drawn. This tax will not however, even when added to the amount de-1 rived from other sources, provide the contest. This championship battle was the best exhibition of volleyball ever played at the hill top institution, according to Director Sam Carver. "'• •' •"'; Playing a thrilling uphill battle, the" Vikings overcame the independents' lead and won the first game by a close score of 16-14. ' This game was featured by extended play and the outstanding work of Stone, Mo-scrip, and Shenenberger of the' Viking's squad. The second game the Vikings played a good brand of ball, but the consistent playing and teamwork of the Independents brought them victory by a harrow margin, the score being 15-13.; gt;There were many close' decisions in this game and both teams did their share of moaning. In the third and deciding game the Independents developed a, smooth working combination, the main sparks being Zoet, Shaffer and Divird. The Independents were then able to build up a big lead over Bob Lindsley's newspapermen, but the brilliant and spectacular playing of Byron Moser made it possible for the Vikings to tie the score. The Independents finally won by four points, the score being 15-11. The players ,on the 1933 school volleyball championship team are playing Manager George Albee, Dick Stearns, Harlan Jones, Dwight.

The greatest aid to schools for the present time must come from the act appropriating $20,000,000 current school fund for the period. 1933-35. This appropriation by the state makes the state responsible for $10,- 000,000 per year and the districts can be certain of this amount. The fight now must center on maintain-club, led by Dick Stearns. The Northwest Vikings are captained by Bob Lindsley, while the. Harlequins are managed by Bob Hartley. At a meeting held at 4 o'clock Wednesday in Coach Carver's office, managers of the various. teams passed on the rules made last year and drew up a schedule for the first half. Twenty-one games' are scheduled, covering a period of six weeks. Air games are to be played Tuesday and Thursday afternoons, with the exception of Monday, December 4, when two night games are listed. Next week's games are: Tuesday, November 7, Revelers vs. Frosh. and Harlequins vs. Daniels Hall. Thursday, November 9, the Co-op is slated to' meet the Northwest Vikings and the Men's club will play the Revelers. Seven teams have entered intramural competition this year, including the Northwest Vikings, Men's club, Revelers, Co-op, Harlequins, Frosh and Daniels hall. The managers are, respectively: Bob Lindsley, Dick Stearns, Louis Schaeffer, George Albee, Bob Hartley, Melvin Munson and Milton Flint. The beginning of the winter quarter will open the second half of the tournament. _o .Well, they're off! After five weeks of turnouts and strenuous practice, actual play has. begun in women's athletics, the season's first contest, which was in volleyball, having been staged Monday afternoon in the big gym. This contest, between teams designated as the Blues and Reds for distinguishing purposes, was ref-ereed by Miss Jewell, coach! The two teams were captained by Margaret Starlund and J o h n ny Bromley, respectively, both players of upper-class standing and inspira-| tion to their teams. Despite the fact that Bromley's team went down to defeat; it served only to add impetus to its final playing, which bodes well for' future victories. Although the game score of 2-0 might'appear to be an easy victory for the Blues, the point" scores of 21-10 arid 21-16 show the comparative strength'of both teams. and faculty members desiring to use the school tennis courts, outside of class periods, must arrange for time appointments. This arrangement has been made in order to reserve the courts for the college students and to eliminate unnecessary Waiting. How about it? We note by the University of Washington Daily that the women's volleyball intramurals also have begun this week at that institution. An added glory to the victory of these games is the possession of the Garhart trophy, the women's athletic award. Competition for this award is extended to all organized groups which. follow a sports program, A including volleyball,. swimming, basketball, baseball and tennis. At our sister institution, the Ellensburg Normal, the women's sophomore- junior hockey team finished its first game of the inter-class tournament with a victory oyer the freshman team by a 2-1 score, mention being made, however, of * the fine playing of both teams.

Neither of the finalists looked nearly as good as they did in their previous matches. Hussey especially was more erratic than he was when he and Starlund staged what should have been the finals way back in the quarter-finals. This tournament gave the school a chance to see their prospective team members for next spring. Many last year's veterans have left openings for new squad members.

Thirty-eight new Thespians were taken into the club this fall. This is an exceptionally large group, but as much talent was shown, a fair selection of candidates could not be hoped for v unless a large number were to be admitted to the club. The regular Thespian ritual was followed in initiating the new members. Wet stocking feet and self-conscious speech makers were very much in evidence. Marian Cole and Billie Mills had charge of the initiation and banquet, respectively. The banquet was held in the Campus school cafeteria, the meal being served from the Edens hall kitchen. o Award For Juvenile Book Is Presented To Elizabeth Lewis A discussion on "Extra Curricu-lar Activities in the Elementary .Schools", was led by Miss.Mary E. Rich, director of the training school, at the Tuesday morning meeting of the Southwest Washington Regional institute and convention, held in Vancouver, Wash., on October 23 and 24. The meetings were held at the Shumway junior high school. The first meeting of the day was called to order promptly at 9:00 a. m. for a general assembly. All persons attending the convention were together until 10:30 a. m., when the sectional meetings were begun. These were continued until the noon recess. The afternoon sessions were organized in the same way—first the general meetings followed by the smaller groups discussing more specific topics. Miss Rich spoke to the sectional group concerned with the problem of extra-curricular activities. She opened the discussion with the value and theory behind the extra-activities in the school. Others were delegated to present examples of. these activities, such as club activities, cooperative student government, playground activities, and elementary school newspapers. It was pointed out that in beginning these projects, it is much better to begin in a small way, and build them up into a more complex structure. One point set before all the teachers was that they were to try to educate the child, not merely to answer certain questions; and that one needs to keep in mind that the point of this education is pupil development. Because of the short time Miss Rich spent in Vancouver, she was not able to spend as much time discussing problems and work with former Normal students as she would have liked. Many of the people who were active in the convention work were people who had been in school here. Miss Dorothy Christensen, Miss Marie Kepler, Mr. Prescott Kanarr, and Mrs. Hazel Vidani were among those present. Miss Rich was especially surprised to meet two men who were here last year. Charles Morgan who had five children in the training school was there as was Pop Gunn, whose son Jimmie was a pupil in the sixth grade. Mr. Earle D. Bennett, who was the chairman of the group Miss Rich met, is the superintendent of the Kessler Boulevard school in Long-view, and was once a student here. Miss Genevieve Metcalf secretary to Mr. Wilson the county superintendent in Vancouver, was also a Normal student. . After attending the institute, Miss Rich felt that Bellingham Normal teachers who are teaching in that district are doing splendid work, and are meeting their problems with ' careful thought. Five counties were included injthe section of the Washington Education association. They are: Wahkiakum, Klickitat, Skamania, Cowlitz, and Clark counties. Blue Room is Arrangements were made at the Social Science club last Monday to entertain Senator Robert LaFollette Jr. John Rule and Mabel Rolle, who were appointed to make arrangements for entertaining Senator LaFollette, reported that a luncheon will be given at Edens hall Monday noon, November 6. About eighty-five people have signed up for the luncheon. Boyd Swanson, accompanied by Susanne Cissna sang several songs. A discussion oh the present state of affairs' in Germany was led by Frank Jones. The president reports that the club, which has a* membership list of approximately thirty-five students, is very active this year. o— School Problems Are Subjects of Convention Talk Whatcom, Skagit, and San Juan Teachers Hold Two-day Meet in City Tea, Oct. 31 Faculty Entertained by Girls Who Act as Hostesses for Affair HALLOWE'EN PARTY TUESDAY Special Dinner Held Tuesday Night to Celebrate Novel With Chinese Setting Chosen By Judges The John Newbery award for 1932 has been presented to Elizabeth Foreman Lewis for her book, "Young Fu of the Upper Yangtze." - The John Newbery award is given each year for the most distinguished book for children written by an American author and published in the United States. This award does not consist of money. Instead, a bronze medal is presented to the winner. The first of these awards was given in 1921. Strange as it may seem, John Newbery was not an American, nor did he give the money for the medal. He was an English book publisher and seller of the middle eighteenth century. He was the first to recognize children's books as a separate literature and to publish and sell them as suchi He put out one of the first editions i of "Mother Goose." By RALPH HOFMAN Washington Education association members from Whatcom, Skagit and San Juan counties returned to their posts after a two-day convention at Bellingham. October 26 and 27 saw 800 instructors gathered for a discussion of school problems and for a general revival of faith in the advancement of education. The fact that the acquiring of this faith cost each member two days' salary was cheerfully accepted on the whole, as a result of hard times. Heading an excellent program and a distinguished group of speakers was Miss Bess Goodykoontz, assistant United States commissioner of education. Miss Goodykoontz in her address "Analyzing Progress" proved that in spite of economic pressure educators are doing a fine piece of work. While it would be impossible to say that the W. E. A. convention has brought any radical change to educational methods, it has, however, resulted in an improved spirit among the teachers. There is a new feeling of hope for the,future and a general lifting of gloom that always results from a comparison of troubles. —o "Kennel Kapers" League Informal Held October 28 Crystal Ball Room at Leopold Hotel Scene of Women's Club Fall Dance Sunday night was the first tea that the girls of Edens Hall have given this year, and the faculty were the honor guests. The Blue room of the dormitory was attractively decorated with autumn leaves and pumpkins and dimly, lighted with candles. Peggy McKay, general chairman of the tea, was assisted by Marie deGollier, refreshment chairman, and Alyce Weber, decoration chairman. Lois Wilson presided over the program in which Frank Forstrum played a group of violin solos, accompanied by Joe McFar-land. Helen Scott gave two readings, Boo BecKen sang a group of songs, and Christine Albers played a piano solo. About fifty guests attended the affair with the girls in the hall as hostesses. Tuesday night a special dinner was given," followed by singing of songs. Later in the evening all the girls were invited to a Hallowe'en tparty, which was held in the "attic". Jack-o'-lanterns, candles, and black silhouettes furnished a suitable background for the frolic. During the , evening refreshments were served and games were played. Marydel Conrad was general chairman of the party and she was assisted by Lottie Stevenson, decoration chairman, Dolly Anderson, entertainment chairman, and Evelyn Neal, head of the masks. • o Y. W.

TO HEAR STUDENTS Normal Schooi May Broadcast Every Friday Evening Aubrey Lundberg gallantly offers the,services of his "delivery wagon" (motif—blue" and white a la school colors) tomorrow nite to those unfortunates who are unable to get a ride in a private car and are unwilling to walk. This; is not an advertisement, though Lundberg is asking a remuneration of one dime per couple. It is a commendation of ari accommodation. Now, let me get this straight. Am I accommodating a commendation or am I commending an accomodation. ? What was I writing about, anyhow? -W.S.N.S. , / don't want to write the old column this week at all. The sun is shining brightly and Jack Falkner leads his mincing footsteps across the campus, leaning on the arm of Mary Eoich. \ W.S.N.S. Someone last week accused the Viking of defending the men against the women. Now that is an unfair and an unjust accusation. The mere fact that I happened to agree once with the. editor, and that the one member of the studehty body who dared to write a "student opin- 1bn'! was of the same mind as the editor and I were is not coalition^ It is coincidence. W.S.N.S. To 'get back to not wanting to write this column today . . . Maybe, after all, I'm just doing the flung that i^ate meant for me do. Some she makes study hard and get good grades and a job... Others she lets appreciate the finer things of life and those are the ones that are called "Queer". Still others she forces to spout useless drivel to fill up the left-hand coiumn of a newspaper. These the world calls columnists, and they do not feel insulted-— only hurt. . W.S.N.S.— - Once an old gentleman showed two boys a piece of string. "See," lie said, "this, when it is-lit, is re-riiarkably like life. If you keep it straight up and down, letting the flame always burn upward, it burns rapidly and will sometimes light a whole room. But if it is held loosely, or let drag on the ground, or the flame is made to burn downward, it will only smoulder, and will make much bad-smelling smoke. —W.S.N;S. And the little boys I mentioned in the paragraph above, understanding the old gentleman's fable, did h not lie down., their ..whole., lives. Neither did they sit, but always stood. Still, they created much bad-smelling smoke. So much for the wisdom of the human race. ;'•. ——-W.S.N.S.- ~/:}i-':For we are all inconceivably '•• wise—just ask us! We never make mistakes, and when we do, it is the other fellow who is wrong. And when we are corrected, people do :npt understand us. And when peo- ,jj)ie agree with us we say they are Wise. ' '.. ——— Or — ' PRE5CY ASKS VOTE ..' Pending approval by a faculty committee, students and faculty are going to have an opportunity to be heard every Friday nightoyer the local radio station, K-V-O-S. Mr. John Churcmn, manager of the station, believes that since the Normal school is so much a part of the city and its affairs, that the public will be pieased with efforts of trie students to display their talents. Those studetfts wno feel they have any special ability to entertain will be given ari audition, with the privilege of displaying their accomplishments on the air. In order to give the listeners a taste Of what can be done by prospective teachers, Mr. V. H. Hoppe has made arrangements for members of his class in literary interpretations to present the one-act play, "The Valiant". If this proves a success other one-act plays will follow until other- "artists" come forward to try their hand. Dance is Discussed at Weekly Meeting of Women's League New Members are Told of Activities W. A. A. Benders Many Distinct Services for School W CLUB TOMORROW AT NINE For the purpose of making new members familiar with the activities arid procedure of the organization, the Women's Athletic Association held a meeting Wednesday afternoon, Oct. 16, in room 120. New members were informed about the W. A. A.'s recreation camp, Viqueen Lodge, which is situated on Sinclair Island, one of the San Juan group. The W. A. A. is purchasing the. lodge, and is making plans for raising money to complete the payments on it. Usher at Assemblies The organization has taken over the ushering at all school programs and assemblies, there being a special standing committee to render this service. Members of the Club also co-operate with the men of the school in promoting interest in football games and other sports, and will co-operate with the Homecoming committee in selling concessions at this year's homecoming game. This year the association is particularly interested in sending several delegates to the class in parliamentary procedure being offered by Miss Emma Erickson after school hours. ' ' No Longer on Point System The W. A. A. is no longer on the old point system, previously used for giving letters and other athletic awards. It is now possible for any girl in the school to avail herself of the benefits of the four o'clock athletic program, without making herself financially obligated to the organization.

Clarence Thue's orchestra will play for this peppy affair, which promises to be an outstanding social hit of the year. The entire theme of the dance is collegiate. Both the decorations and programs are to be typical emblems of the sponsorship of the W club. The program has been worked out very carefully by the committees and promises to be a huddle and skirmish from the beginning to the end. Special transportation has been arranged for those not having cars who wish to go. The big Blue and White Bus will leave Baughman's at 8:45 tomorrow night. The fare will be ten cents per couple. - • Q~T. " COURSE IN ECONOMICS TAUGHT BY DR. BOND BOIT SAI1ANGER. IDOnOflNLEY PULITZER PLAY IS READ BY KIRKMAH "Of Thee I Sing"., is..

A. Bond, of the mathematics department at the local branch of the American Institute of Banking schooi, which is held every Tuesday evening. The school is attended by employ ees of the city and county banks. The course ranks as a college sophomore or junior class. It consists of thirty-four lessons and a final examination. A standard college text is being used. _ i-O——— Men's Club Appoint New Staff Officers For All Vacancies In todays assembly President Fisher discussed several items of /; il|heral interest ta the stud^nt^Wdy; Ainong these was the coming elec-tion.

Cider President Fisher spoke at the meeting of the Kiwanis club, Tuesday. He told about the change in student body ratio. In 1923, 14 per cent of the students were men, making the number, six women to One man. At present, there are two women for every man. President Fisher stated that perhaps it would soon be a fifty-fifty ratio, which would make it a more ideal situation. The tests the entering freshmen took were given to 38 teacher's colleges and Normal schools. This institution stood tenth, ranking first in Nature study, seventh_in English, sixth in history, eleventh in arithmetic, and fourteenth in civics. The /upper 25 per cent of the freshmen-tested in were English and culture, centile score is equal to that of college and university students. Last May, tests ' were given to sophomores who had completed six quarters. The subjects \1insy were tested in Were English arid Culture.

We do not say this in the form of a sales talk but in a sineere honest fashion. After being afforded the opportunity of seeing the "revised" edition of the Normal school's playground it is our opinion that this is one of Bellingham Normal's finest properties. George Dack and his crew of men have performed a miracle in changing a tangle of brush into a spacious clearing with all facilities for sports and outings. The cabin is completed and several cords of wood cut for the large fireplace. Several spots have been cleared and prepared for future campfires, the dock repaired, a springboard installed, dirt courts for volleyball and tennis leveled and packed, and die ground thoroughly cleaned with the lower limbs of the trees trimmed. Fully three hundred and fifty feet of beautiful sandy beach extends along the front of the clearing with perfect facilities for bathing. Maple, alder and fir trees border the shore-line and provide an excellent frame for a beautiful picture when viewed from the water.; Gifts from various classes and returns from the Victoria excursion last summer aided in the construction of this recreation ground and every student should feel that he has part interest in it. Congratulations, George Dack, for a job well done. v?vilseemib^ ; : L "But, master, are you ail you seem to be?? So speaks the lowly to the mighty--and was his face red? Nothing is quite so dlscomfittihg as the fathoming of one's exterior to reveal the^hyj^rite below. The sanctimonious "Now, my children : . •; "sounds brassy cheap and hollow even to the speaker's ears when a woman looks smiling up, and in her eyes the mocking words, "Well said; but, master . .••.." Life should not become so serious that we can't smile at ourselves. • \ Man sheds nmny pseudo-pious tears (in public) for the sins of fellow-man, so his neighbors will whisper as he strides stoutly by, " : . . and such a righteous, sympathetic soul." But one there is who muffles ^sardonic laughter behind her veil while knowing eyes cry out a taunt, "Bravo! But, after all, my master . ." Still, this life would be a monotone indeed if each of us were only what we seemed to be: if on each face we could read the telltale-marks that said: "I am a villain—my ways are secret, my deedSriare dark, my. heart is black. Beware!" Or on some pure and shining face we could read the legend: "I am a gallant knight, the very soul of honor. In every least degree I am the enemy of deceit. Trust me for there's no dissemblance here." Or on another the truthful tag confesses, "in me you'll find neither evil nor very much of good. I fawn on him whom the people praise, and cast stones at him whom the mob dislikes. I am too weak to be Virtue's defender; I lack the strength to be the Devil's minion." Par better it is that we are not always what we seem to be, better that our lives are not charted to tell where evil ends and good begins,.or when one may not in truth be the other. For good is good only in comparative degrees, and that which is easily dis-cernable we find so often dull.

A Miss Katherihe Casanova, new to the training school this term, has caught hold of the consuming interest of Bellingham Bay children in ships, and has made it the "core" of this month's study. Call it social science,: or geography, as you choose; it has branched into reading, number and language work, and has practically monopolized the free activity period; ' "' : Scrap Book Made Two large scrap-books hold the boat pictures brought in. The wooden ships run the entire range from barges to many-decked' battleships with great quantities of nails to represent railings,, guns, and other details which many!,of the grownups have never been open-eyed enough to see. Such a spirit of inquiry is encouraged in the primary rooms that mariner brothers and fathers have been pumped^ dry, and we suspect that Miss .Casinoya has been forced to "'seek sources" to meet the question deluge. But it is her belief that the right to question is one of those rights implied in our democratic constitution. • The formal "manners and morals" period—twice a week for fifteen minutes—is driven into limbc[:by :the unconscious socialization of ^ doing things together. •'•':''l'-J - ' • ; •—o———— • l .Side of'the - v gt; MEET IN BELLINGHAM c AMPUS CAMPAIGNING OMES TO CLOSE Elections are over, new officers are preparing for their inauguration next week, and political gossip is staging its fade-out. The polls were well-managed by volunteer students and the balloting was conducted strictly along the lines projected, by the Board of Control. Congratulations are in order for the elected—Otto Finley, new four quarter representative, step to the front and take your bow. An attendance of two and a half years has given Finley a fine background for his one year term. A remarkable student, capable of clear, constructive ideas, Finley is a decided asset to our control body. In Harriet Rickerson, three quarter representative, we find real leadership and the ability to represent fairly the viewpoint of the men and women of the school.' ' - . • • . . ' . .. Bert Gallanger, vice president for the remainder of this quarter, is also capable of fine work and is entirely worthy of the office. •.. , . Best wishes for a successful term of office are extended to all of you. /' DISAPPOINTING, TO SAY, T H E LEAST. Referring to the tremendous amount of enthusiasm NOT shown at the P. L. C. game last Saturday. Efforts were directed by various leaders in an attempt to fill the stands for this initial game. At this they were more than successful. But the spirit and pep that had been built up during the previous week seemed to crawl into its shell as the fans took the stands. THE VIKINGS PLAYED A fine game, received their quota of bad breaks, and barely lost a well-fought battle. It must be extremely discouraging to turn out for three weeks, hit the ball hard, and then be rewarded by a large but semi-lifeless audience at their first encounter. WE HAVE SEEN WHAT potentialities the local grid men possess, and it is our Normal-school obligation and allegiance to contribute 4nd subscribe to the support and future of that team. E LSIE O'DONNELL NDS TWO YEAR TERM In the confusion of elections we often forget that present officers vacate their seats and make way for the newly elected. Our school election of the past two weeks has been no exception. All eyes have been trained upon the nominee and, after the general election, upon the next occupants of the Board of Control. We must not forget that in electing a new four quarter representative we have also played taps for one of the finest Board members this school has known for many years, Elsie O'Donnell. She has served a total of six quarters, two as vice president and as four quarter representative. This length of office is in itself a record. This record is indeed a. tribute Jo her conscientious and consistent work in handling student affairs. Her service to the students has been a great one and appreciation should be shown to her upon retirement from office. It is with sincere regrets that the Normal school views the end of her term of office. Elsie O'Donnell will be missed. The 46th annual convention of the W. E. A. and Joint Teachers Institute of the Whatcom, Skagit, and San Juan counties is under way in Bellingham. They are making the Hotels Leopold and,Bellingham, and the Mt.

Viking Game Low SINJ RAY^ In the opening football game last Saturday, the loc l vg*rigshbwed plenty of stuff, antt with a little more practice, will knock some of the wise birds off the fence. A fair estimate of the Viking's strength will be available when St. Martins comes to town on the 29th, a week from Saturday. The Saints took a drubbing from the West Seattle Athletic Club, but then the W. S. A. C. are plenty strong and would give a lot of college teams a run for their money, So, with any kind of a showing at iill against the Saints, the Vikings should be set for a successful season. Talk about tough luck. Some-body- must hade thrown a black cat into the headquarters of the Whatcom Red Skins. With fioe regulars out for the season with broken legs, arms* and. what not, it begins to look as if "Swede" Anderson will tiave Id put out a call for the Boy Scouts. i It looks as if the stock of the Santa Clara; Broncos is like a lot 6f this pre-election prosperity stock that most'of |he candidates are handing us—way up in September, and way.down in November. "Dia-iriond Joe'* and the rest of the Broncs started like a house afire, only to fold up like magician's collapsible clock. ^^Wliat. a';trade. the major leagues are going to put on for the fans. Teams of both leagues are figuring •onvi trade that will put on the blbicfc none other than a dozen or so ^of; baseball's notables*:.; including "Gabby*' Hartriett, Shanty Hogan, Ki Ki Shuyler and a host of other stars. Its about time the magnates are doing something about the runaway the Yankees made of the last 'pennant drive.:. What they ought to do is give the other seven teams in •the American League a twenty-five •game handicap and then make the Yanks play their games with Ruth and Gehrig batting cross handed. Two poor kicks in the last quarter, both of them deep in their own territory, spelt doom for the Viking football last Saturday, as they went down to a heart-breaking defeat at the hands of a scrappy outfit from Pacific: Lutheran college at Parkland^ •Like the Hon crouching alertly in the bushes to make the kill, the Lutheran. pounced on their scoring opportunity and in nothing-flat, grabbed seven points and victory on three well-chosen and well-executed plays. Bellingham lost five yards on a penalty and then MacMillan dropped back and shot a clean pass to Jacobson, rangy end. MacMillan, this same stocky little ball of fiery T. N. T., followed with a slice through right tackle. At this point, Bellingham made a substitution and was penalized two yards for too many, time outs, pushing the Vikings against their own goal line. It was fourth down and as the Blue forwards concentrated at the center of the line in a last desperate attempt to ward off defeat, MacMillan pulled a sleeper and as three Lutherans smashed into Partis he skirted right end for a touchdown. On the try-for-poiht, MacMillan shot a bullet pass to Jacobson who sneaked into the end zone un-watched. First Half Punting Duel The first half was productive of a duel between .Art Smith and Hansen; with the Lutherans kicking against a howling wind in the first quarter. Neither machine could go places on grpund plays but late in the second quarter, a Pacific man pounced on a fumble in enemy territory The Vikings were caught unaware, as a boy from Parkland began to grunt and groan over a faked injury and the center snapped the ball to Sansen who galloped 15 yards behind nice interference. Here Bag-ley and Flowers pulled two great defensive plays as they leaped into the ozone to knock down aerials that would have been sure scores. In the second half, after an exchange of punts, P. L. C. was penalized for holding and unnecessary toughness with Normal finally getting the ball inside the Collegians' forty-yard stripe. Following another kicking duel, Siriko skirted right end for 12 yards and then Beaton tossed a pass to Partis for eleven more. a * Name: Walter Siriko. ' Born'1910, Minneapolis, M nn. , Age, 22; height, 5 ft. 10% in. Weight, 167 pounds. Schools attended: Raymond high school, St. Martins College, Washington State Normal, Bellingham. Hobby: Dancing. Sinko comes to us from St. Martin's college. He played football for Bellingham last faOi and showed enough stuff to be considered for a regular job this year by the Viking mentors. Sinko plays in the back-field and is undoubtedly one of the hardest men to stop once he gets in the open. This he showed in the Pacific Lutheran game last Saturday when he returned a punt for some 30 yards and had only one man between him and the goal line when he was brought down from behind. While in high school he was not only an outstanding athlete but was interested in the social aspect of school life as well. During his career at the Raymond high school Sinko, beside playing basketball, football, arid baseball, was president of the Student Body and also of his Senior class. o :—— VIKINGS BATTLE WITH ST. MARTINS OCT. 29 Vikings in Excellent Shape to Meet a Powerful Team ' Splash • hours for all woirien students of the school are being sponsored by the W. A. A. again, this quarter. These popular affairs are held every Thursday at the Y. W, C. A. pool, "the beginners swiminirig between 7:30 and 0:15, and the advanced group frorii 8:15 to 9 p. m. In previous quitters it was necessary to sign a notice on the W. A. A. bulletin board if students desired to participate. No such notices will be posted this year. Any girls who wish'to come for either group are invited to come to the poor Thursday evenings and enjoy an hour of exhilarating exercise and fun. There is a discussion ariiorigsome of the most regular swimmers concerning the forming of 8'woman's swimming club as an auxiliary to the Women's Athletic Association. _J 0 ; *.

WASHINGTON Friday, April 12, 1935 Normalite Debates # • * * Dialectics » * * * De vision * * * * Destiny —By Harlan Jones Martin, Works, Hoppe Selected By Convention OUTLIVED POPULAR BELIEF? Under Filibusters in the last issue, the question for debate was "Resolved: "How Do You Due". So of course you couldn't expect Prender and Mullen to appear by the steps because they didn't snow the question either. That for you—disappointed. W.S.N.S. ' What thjs world needs are some agitators. 'Not the long-haired and bomb-throwing kind, but a race of innocent blondes who would refuse to clap when sopranos don't hit the P above high C in assemblies. Or perhaps a few Socratic gentlemen who refuse to comb their hair, who would sit on the curb over by the Sip and Bite and agitate for shorts on Campus day. The Hill tribe aren't getting orthodox and dogmatic are they? Remember the old maxim, "The school board will get you if you don't watch out." That maxim, however, is found only in the last chapter of the Blue book, so play your lute and your lyre while you may. W.S.N.S. And while we're in the mood for debating societies, let's present another topic. How about the Yankee Ball room versus Mixers and Rec hours? Please think medoddering and not addled n I say for the good of the debate that there was something about McKee's orchestra wasting its fragrance on the desert air from eight 'tin nine that reminded me of Longfellow's poetry. That reminds me of "Create the clouds yourself, don't search for them down all the gutters of time and space". « W.S.N.S. I n case none of the features have leaked through, you'll notice that the next page is smeared with alcohol. Since red noses may either be a sign of a cold or of the bottle, you can either go visit Miss Mead or skip the next page and no one will be the wiser. However the stuff realizes that the world ceased to have virtues years ago, but we choose to argue. It's good for the liver. W.S.N.S. It is time we were getting educational. Let's quote from Dr. M. G. Neal's speech, which included, "Save the World from the PTA" that he made at the Inland Empire Education association meeting. "Not long ago, we looked at the Russians horrified because they had 200,000 wild children on the bum; today we have 300,000. Included in our predicament are 2,000,000 high school students, 2,000,000 in colleges, 4,000,000 unemployed between 16 and 20, 5,000,000 between ages of 20 and 25". W.S.N.S. And Will Rogers the other day said that we have ways and means of gathering every sort of information. How many rabbits were born in the Dakotas and how much rainfall fell between here and Honolulu, but we can't find who needs help and who doesn't. -W.S.N.S. And when all the smoke clears away we'll probably see a meek little man pulling his coat lapels and saying, "I've been a tax payer nigh on to 30 years". Roosevelt's $4,800- 000,000 is a lot of somebody's money. W.S.N.S. Shanghai sees 57 couples married in a single ceremony in the Chinese government's move to deal a blow at the traditional high cost of weddings. Perhaps you didn't know that the Chinese groom used to spend the rest of his life paying back his marital debt on the installment plan. In this country the debts come later. Delegates Choose Candidates To Run for Board of Control Membership Two Offices Are Vacant Roll e, Pearce, Johnson Qualify For Second Position Agnes Martin, Rose Works, and Joan Hoppe were chosen to run for the office of four quarter representative on the Board of Control. For the four quarter representative man or woman, Mabel Rolla, Blanche Pearce, and Clifford Johnson were named at the nominating convention held Wednesday, April 10. Nominations were made by acclamation and the eligibility of the nominees was verified. Miss Florence Johnson, faculty representative on the Inter Club council, acting as temporary chairman brought the meeting to order. Lorene Smith and Tony Zambas were appointed tellers and John Miller, sergeant-at-arms. Miss Johnson was then voted convention chairman and Mabel Rolle, previously appointed temporary secretary, was re-appointed secretary. Since no names were suggested by the clubs, the group decided to submit three names for each office. As in previous elections any number of candidates can be added to the ballot by a petition of 25 names. Fred Rosenwater is a possible petition candidate. Student elections will take place Friday, April 19. Instructors Attend Meeting in Seattle Miss Nora Cummins, Edward Arntzen, and T. F. Hunt, social | science instructors, attended a meet-i ing of sociologists last Friday and I Saturday at the University of Wash- | ington. Sociologists from Idaho, ! Oregon, British Columbia, Western j Montana, Oregon, and Washingon were present. I The group discussed common 1 problems and formed a society that will meet once a year. General discussion at the meeting centered on how social research helps in dealing with present social problems. Use of Tea Interpreted In Morning's Assembly Japanese tea-drinking and its symbolic meaning was the unusual i entertainment the Womens League I assembly held this morning. The men were invited to attend by Eve-i lyn Larsen, vice-president I A group of Japanese from Seattle, j dressed in native garments, drank I tea and talked in the manner of their forefathers. Their actions and ! conversation were translated into English by an interpreter. The demonstration was given to show the symbolic and religious meaning involved in "their way of drinking tea. The program was arranged by Evelyn Larsen. Editorial HAVE WE FINALLY Quoting in part from an editorial appearing in the Bellingham Herald, April 1: "According to findings of the Carnegie foundation, the 'rah-rah boy of yesterday', in American colleges has been deflated. Two reasons are given: First, the struggle for existence m the nation's 8 0 0 higher institutions of learning; secondly, the shrinking of educational endowments, coupled with fewer gifts and reduced tuitions. "The student on the campus," says the report, "is no longer the blase, sophisticated student of the ' 2 0 ' s . He is a hard-working, serious-minded person who demands more of the college library, the laboratory, and the instructors than did his brother of a decade ago. He is increasingly a patron of the seminar, the serious lecture, the art gallery, the symphony concert. -This student is deflating the rah-rah boy of yesterday. It is encouraging to us, as students, that we are no longer thought of as bearing the. low standards of the past. The impressions hitherto received by the average citizen, (the ideas of the glorified school) have to be revised. The colleges are the "proving ground" of the country, and they have been continually developing toward perfection. Students are truly becoming serious-minded. Not just serious-minded toward their purpose in life, but also toward the economic problems of this country, toward international relations problems, and perhaps more toward nrnvorl i n Paee Twoi Play Directed by Normal Teacher To Be Produced Normal Students Have Roles "The Rivals"; Chichester Plays Lead -W.SN.S-In a similar vein chairman Mc- Swain of the House Military Affairs committee is pushing a bill embodying Bernard Baruch's ideas. He would make each generation pay for its own wars. The Nye measure gives directors Who oppose disciplining an alternative—they can be bounced; off to the Frenches. That seems to us to be the only sporting thing to do. v,-.. ,.,.,.-..',,.;..;-;.; (Continued on Page Two) Under direction of Victor H. Hoppe, Normal drama instructor, the Bellingham Theatre guild presents Richard Brinsley Sheridan's •'The Rivals," an 18th century comedy drama in the Normal auditorium April 27, at 8:15. Studtnts may obtain free reserved seats by presenting a student body ticket in the Co-op next week. G.' Bernard Chichester, a director of the guild, plays the leading role of Sir Anthony Absolute. Hoppe, in addition to directing the play, is cast in trie classic role of Bob Acres. Randy Oberlatz, Virginia George, and Ann Matheson, Normal students, are members of the all-star cast. o Three Normal Students Will Present Concerto Recital Next Month A concerto recital featuring three Normal students will be given at the Garden Street Methodist church the last part of May. These students, Sue McMillan Christine AI-bers, Helen Griffith, and Clara Vander Griend, are all pupils of Edith R. Strange. This recital will include compositions by Mozart, Schumann, and Rubenstein. Miss Strange will play the second piano, and Christine Al-bers will play the organ. Sue McMillan will play the first movement of the Rubenstein concerto with orchestral accompaniment. The Normal school orchest ra will furnish the instrumental accompaniment. . o Northwest scenes in oil water colors, and block prints by a number of young artists will be exhibited by the Art department next week in rooms 304 and 305. Don Norlin, * former Normal student, is represented in the group, and is responsible for bringing the exhibit to the Normal. Faculty Members Attend Conference In Inland Empire Ruckmick, Miller, Upshall, Speak To DiTerent Departments On Education Miss Mary E. Rich, director of the Campus Elementary school, James Bever, dean of the Normal school Herbert E. Ruckmick, Industrial Art instructor, Dr. C. C. Upshall of the Research department, and Dr. Irving E. Miller, of the Psychology and Education department, were delegates to the Inland Empire Education association, which met April 3, 4, and 5 at Spokane. This conference is held annually. Mr. Ruckmick, Dr. Miller, and Dr. Upshall gave papers in the meetings of their respective departments. Dr. Upshall presided at the Research banquet, held Wednesday evening, April 3. Research problems, both practical and theoretical were discussed. Dr. Miller spoke to the psychology division on "The Psychological Aspects for the Curricular Reorganization for Teacher Training", and Mr. Ruckmick addressed the Industrial Arts division on "Industrial Arts as a Fundamental in General Education". Miss Rich attended the conference of pre-school and primary ' education, and Mr. Bever went to meetings of the Northwest Association of Higher Schools. Entire Student Body Given Invitation To Skate arid S^id With Journalists At Party Tonight in Local Auditorium By Helen Hostetter "Come one, come all" is the current cry of the Viking staff members. Of course they mean it as an invitation to their skating party, to be held this evening from 8:00 to 10:30 in the State Street auditorium. However they admit that there is a catch—15 cents admission.

(Continued from Page One) world peace. Four eastern colleges, namely Union, Amherst, Colgate, and Columbia recently completed arrangements for a series of intercollegiate round-table discussions in social studies. Groups of advanced students of each institution will visit the others and conduct seminar-like sessions on subjects of significance to them. Students of economics and philosophy are already working on papers for this discussion. Later, topics will be found in the field of history, literature, and other humanistic studies. Again, at Vassar college, we find undergraduates conducting a "Model Senate," in which many problems of American government are being thoroughly discussed. For example the "Senate" became thoroughly acquainted with the argument for and against the League of Nations before ratifying a resolution to bring the United States into the league. The "Senate" also voted for unemployment insurance and was strongly in favor of anti-lynching legislation. This "Senate" was organized by the Poltical Association of Vassar, but embraces delegates from 26 colleges. These delegates voted to make the senate a permanent body, with annual sessions at different colleges. President F. D. Roosevelt recognized the value of the senate by saying, "It should go far toward giving the youth of our country insight into the intricacies of present-day government. Today, on the eighteenth anniversary of our entry into the World War, the movement in protest against war, munitions, and R O T C reached a climax at 1.1 o'clock, when students left their classrooms in a protest against militarism. It is not that students are cowards in face of the suffering and torture of mind and body that a war might bring. But they are determined not to be deceived as their predecessors were by the fallacy of the possibility of world peace and democracy through war. Over 100,000 students were expected to participate in the strike today, which was sponsored by various youth movements in this country. The significance of the strike should not be forgotten, but should be carried on toward^ a more secure worldwide peace. o A small but rather important matter that should be immediately acted upon by the Board of Control is the placing of signs at the tennis courts giving court rules. With so much interest being shown in tennis at this school, the lack of adequate playing space makes it necessary that some plan should be adhered to whereby more students would be able to use the courts for shorter periods of time. o Don't forget that the Viking staff has cordially invited every student in school to attend the skating party this evening. The Book Case A Review by Wm. Pierron John Barley Corn By Harlan Jones We propose neither to treat sobriety as a virtue, which will add so many wings to the student body that the orchestra would compose litanies solely for harps, nor to make iodized salt out of the tears of the widows and orphans. We'll leave that to the columns on the left and right. The following is our angle. Al Capone controlled the entire liquor business of the United States when prohibition was booming. The cost of beer was two to three dollars a barrel and the consumption a day was estimated at 1500 barrels in Chicago. The retail price was $55 a barrel. And this is | according to an interview with Morgan Collins about things alcoholic in the city of Chicago for the last forty years. Al Capone could promote or demote policemen or captains of the force or have them transferred at will. That's one kettle of fish. Realizing that I should be dead before I mention myself, never the less, being one of the transitory motorists from Femdale I can't help but notice the black lines on the concrete, broken glass, and plowed up pavement shoulders on Monday mornings. All the way from The Ranch, The Winter Garden, The Tavern, they scatter debris to Bellingham. Some more local color. We were mushing toward Ferndale one cold winter night, when the fellow's lights ahead started doing tricks. So we slithered to a halt. His V-8 was pointed toward the stars sort of propped up on a mail box post with one end in a ditch. He asked us if anyone was hurt on the other side of the road. There wasn't a soul living or dead in sight, and we began to get discouraged. Then he decided he was going to leave (something like a rocket ship). He burned rubber to his heart's content. We didn't offer to push. So he stayed in the ditch. We'd probably be learning to sing soprano if we'd gone home when we should have. So that's that. Now they're up! Now they're down! There may be bruises and sore muscles tomorrow, but tonight there will be fun and flying skates for all those who come to the State Street auditorium. So put on your skates and join the Viking staff at its party this evening.

Alcohol A La Mode Burgundy usually goes to one's head, but this time the shoe manufacturer has decreed that it goes to men's feet. This rich shade of brown in footwear harmonizes with some of the earthy trousers now on display. Speaking of trousers—the greater the contrast between these and your suit, the better. We saw a pair of pale green slacks worn with a 'tan coat, and the men who knew said it was good! Dago red may not be on the same shelf in your social cellar as Burgundy. However, after a Sahara of greys, grey blues, and tans, something of a brighter hue is welcome, so back comes the red sweater. If you are afraid of a headache you may try some of the Canary yellows. For tennis the new trunks which look like a p a i r ' of clipped slacks promise the comfort and freedom always necessary for a good game. Some shops will display these trunks with a cuff.

Lappanbusch has been using his first and second string men of last year as the nucleus for his 1935 squad. When the coach was asked about his chances for a tri-normal championship he said, "I don't care to make any rash promises but I believe that we shall have our most successful season this year. With a new tackle, a guard, and a couple of ends we should go places". Backfield Looks Good The backfield material is especially promising. The services of Art Bagley will be missed but as a whole the backfield is considered good. The first string backfield at this time is composed of Hurley Burgess, Fay Franklin, Morris Tarte, and Max McKenzie, with Dan Gagnon as an alternate quarterback. Tarte's shoulder, which was injured last year seems to have mended and he is showing up well in practice. Franklin says that he is in better condition now than he was when he played for the University of Washington. McKenzie and Gagnon are both working hard. Their wind and leg muscles are still in good condition after a hard season of basketball. Changes Made in Line There will probably be some changes in the line, but at this time it shapes up as follows: Bill Frender and Jim Miller are in their old positions at tackle, Chet Ullin and Clyde Wheeler are holding down the guard sockets, Leon Alpaugh and Jim Frender are playing ends, and Elmo Tooley, a new man, is at center. Lappenbusch's weak spot seems to be in the kicking department. Both Franklin and Boggess are punters, but they do not seem to get the distance. Tony Zambas, the long distance punter from last year's squad, is missing in spring football because he is training for track. He will be out for football again in the falL Peoples F r i and Sat.

Only This Man Is Mine 10c PEOPLES 10c Franklin Does Passing During Spring Turnout Looking It Over Fay Franklin, diminutive speedster and former University of Washington star, is holding down one of the half-back positions during spring practice. Franklin played for Normal last year and was on the mythical tri-normal team. o Only One Softball Team Organized Need At Least Three More Teams Or Plans Will Be Dropped By Phil Football stock took' quite a rise this week with the addition of two new players to the squad of twenty men that has ben turning out for the past two weeks. McGillvary and Dibbley are the new squad members. Both men played for the Enumclaw Athletic club last fall where Coach Lappenbusch was impressed by their performances. * * * *. McCilloray is a halfback while Dibbley, a 150 pounder is a guard. /I 150 pound lineman is quite rare in college football but Dibbley is reported to be plenty tough, and. fast and so should fill in very nicely. Thursday marked the last day of spring practice and the mothballs will take care of that sport until next fall. * * * * But the great American sport is just around the corner with baseball turnouts scheduled for Monday. Lappenbusch has everything in the way of players except pitchers. According to the experts, pitching is 70 per cent of baseball so the situation on the hill looks rather bad. * * • * I t looks like an invitation will have to be sent to Farmer Dean, Campbell supposedly and self-styled 42nd cousin of the famous Dean brothers, to come up north and try out with the Vikings. Bouncing around from team to team in the Coast league, about the only record he has been able to make is that of champion steak eater. He" is reported to consume approximately $5 worth of food a day so the Vikings ought to be able to keep him going for at least a week. • * » * Miller and Reis might develop into good enough chuckers to fill the spot before the season is over. Fans won't forget the first game of the season last year when Mickey Clack shut CPS out with three hits. * * * * The tennis lineup looks about set with Shangle, Mullen, Orloff, Joly, and Starlund as the first five players. Although this squad doesn't rank as strong as the 1934 team, they may surprise critics and come through with a successful season. Shangle, as probable number 1 man, should win the majority of his matches while Mullen, ranking next is also a steady winner. Joly, Orloff and Starlund are capable of playing good tennis, and with a little seasoning, should come through. With but one team assembled to date, the organization of an intramural baseball league is not meeting with the enthusiasm necessary to its success, according to Coach Sam Carver. Carver wants at least four teams organized and ready to play by Monday or he threatens to dispense with this angle of the spring intramural program. The one team which has been assembled is under the managerial guidance of Bill Taylor. Taylor has thirteen players signed, all tried veterans and ready to be of yeoman service to the Rosebuds. Hurley Boggess, a softball chucker, said to be a star from the Seattle summer league, heads the list. Other stars signed by the Rosebud manager are DeVries, Hoekstra, Wilson, Johnson, Boroughs, Angel, Singer, Radder, Nolte, Miller, and Sargent. The Northwest Vikings also expect to enter as contenders, with Harlan Jones as the probable manager. No players have been signed yet. Anyone interested in organizing a team should see Coach Carver immediately. Delegates Return From Convention Many Phases of Women's Sports Discussed at Meet The three WAA delegates to the Athletic Federation of College Women, Agnes Martin, Florence Lund, and Mary Thompson, returned to Bellingham on Wednesday, April 10. The conference was held at Mills college, California, April 4, 5,a and 6. The conference opened Thursday with official registration in the morning, and discussion groups were held in the afternoon on different phases of women's athletics. Friday morning an open meeting was held which included research reports and summaries of the previous day's discussions. Further discussion groups, led by representatives from different colleges were held in the afternoon. A varied program was presented in the evening. Saturday morning meetings were conducted on photography and two-court basketball. At noon a farewell luncheon was given in Orchard Meadow hall. With the WAA By Joan Hoppe Practical equipment for anyone planning to approach within a mile of the center of activity on Waldo field should include shin guards, shoulder pads, football helmet, catcher's mitt, or else a complete suit of armor. Also a few incidentals which might come in handy would be a first aid kit, an antidote for poisoning, and a cake of Gram-pa's Tar soap. The terrors of darkest Africa-head hunters, cannibals, and rhino stampedes—can't compare with the hazards of Waldo field on a fine spring afternoon. If you escape being hit by a stray football or baseball you're bound to trip over a hurdle, be gouged in the leg by the hobnail of a passing track man or shot in the back by a flying arrow. If this wilderness remains untamed by civilization, it will probably become the finest ground for big game hunting in the northern hemisphere * * * * A cross section from conversation which might be heard during the process of taking women's athletic pictures—Oh, my!

The crack of the willow on horse-hide, the "chunk" of a ball on the glove, and the use of baseball language will be sweet music to lovers of the national pastime. Pitchers Lacking gt;J The pitching department is woefully weak and unless some good chucker turns up, Lappenbusch will be very pessimistic about his team's chances. As three doubleheaders will be played, at least two starting pitchers and one or two relief chuckers are needed. Walt Miller, who pitched, part time on last year's squad, is turning out. Miller, who throws from the right side, is Lappenbusch's only pitching prospect as yet. Mickey Clark, star pitcher of last year, is playing ball in San Francisco and will not be back. The outfield is well taken care of with Mc- Cleary, Houlton, Wooten, and Johnson all back from last year's team. Vander Griend Is Third Baseman Vander Griend will hold down third base. Zwaschka, shortstop, entered school this quarter and will be out for his old position. No catchers will be back, but McKenzie is a prospect. Stutz will be out for the first base position. Second base has no prospects as yet but Lappenbusch expects several new men out. Some veterans have been loosening their arms up already, but the first general turnout will start Monday.

Since all matches in the first round not played by April 15 will result in forfeits, play is now well under way. Because only a small number of students were included in the B group formed for those having no previous experience in playing ping pong before the installation of tables in Edens hall, no A and B division in the tournament was made. Men's singles, women's singles, and mixed doubles are now the remaining divisions of the group. Challenges Are Posted Sixteen men are batting their way through the first round. Challenges have been posted arid several matches are already played. Shenenberger defeated Angel and Wickstom defeated Boroughs the first of the week. Having been victorious over Wickstrom in a second round match, Shenenberger still stands undefeated. I n the women's singles, six are vying for championship honors. The winner of the Weeks-Lewis match is scheduled to play the Anderson-Price victor, which will determine who will contest with the Carmichael-Moller match winner for first place. Mixed Doubles Scheduled Three teams are scheduled to play in the mixed doubles. Games to be played in this group are: Weeks- Waylett vs. Shenenberger-Lewis; Weeks-Waylett vs. Carmichael- Fresk; and Carmichael-Presk vs. Lewis- Shenenberger.

WASHINGTON Thursday/July 3, 1930 DIRTY DISHES SQUATTER SOVEREIGNITY S. O. S. FOR SPORTS CLOCK-WATCHERS By Catherine Morse A friend of ours was Spanning the food and service,over at the dorm the other day, but we managed to impress upon the said friend.that a more philosophical attitude would help him enjoy his meals. However, we trotted over to eat there once ourselves just to prove that we were right about- our philosophical attitude. Well, here and now, we would like to beg our friend's pardon for treating his complaint so trivially. You know we really don't object to duly dishes if we can see the dirt, but when itTgets so bad that when we pick up a glass it gets our hand all greasy, we begin to have slight qualms of mal-de-mer. On second thought, we find that there might be some method in having the dishes so foul You see, when the food is all left on the plates, it can be salvaged for hash the next day. * * . • * That wasn't a very nice remark, though, was it? J But, you see, we were most incensed over the fact that when no one could eat the chicken a la king Monday, we were served chicken soup oh Tuesday. It would be a little more tactful if at least one day were allowed to elapse before such a complete denouement. It is somewhat of an insult to meet an old friend in such a variety of disguises. * - lt; • - * - * Then, too, we can't help wondering if "too many cooks don't sort of spoil the broth" (you've noticed it, I hope). Many jfoiks are'nt very good sports and after they have waited a half-hour in. line and sagaciously avoided the soup and the creamed potatoes, they get rather annoyed . when they end up with suspicious coffee and a wilted salad that speedily disgorges -a placid angleworm. 'Sfunny that little things like that sort of peeve people. * * * • Cafeterias aside, haven t you noticed how nice and green the lawns are now? So green and cool and inviting that from our,vantage point in The Viking Window we have noticed severad\ couple have exercised the right-of squatter^sovereignty. That's okey, folks; there is nothing like getting right back to nature during the long, Hot ( ? ) sumr mer days. ' Maybe we shouldn't mention it, but we think it so considerate of the business manager to come to the rescue of the sporting page and furnish those nice half-page ads. and sort of cover up the deficiencies. That's all right, boys; maybe there will be a nice wrestling match or a pingpong tournament to cover one of these days. The sports editor just found out what we have said about his little brain child, and he wishes to remark that a whole story was left out last time, so you see they are not so hard up after all -—and at that point, he and the editor went out to buy bathing caps for the big Watermelon bust down at Pop's.

"I don't think that he will have time to get this Aar, do you?" "Oh; I don't agree with him there.?

COMMUNITY PROJECTS;" BEING CARRIED OUT '.:': IN INDUSTRIAL ARTS LAKE PADDEN TRIP Last Saturday, Twin Lakes Pass was visited by forty hikers from this school; last Tuesday approximately thirty students hiked to Lake Padden, and tomorrow some fifty mountaineers plan to leave on on the" three-day Hannegan Pass trip. Undoubtedly the hiking program is receiving plenty of co-operation as the summer quarter slowly passes on to the memory; Snow and Rain Due to the snow in Twin Lakes Pass and due to rain, Twin Lakes Pass hikers got wet, but they soon dried off in the afternoon when the sun broke through the clouds to make the trip highly successful. It was hoped that wild animal life, of the big game variety, would be encountered, but due to perhaps noises made, such creatures remained out of sight. At any event, their apparent shyness was the only disappointing factor of the trip. Lake Padden The hike to Lake Padden on Tuesday turned out to be easy and no especially exciting events took, place. The hike permitted the directors to realize that the participants were all getting in good condition for the Mount Baker trip. Hannegan Pass Tomorrow Tomorrow morning, at six o'clock, a large group of enthusiastic hikers will leave the campus, motor to Shuksan,'58 miles, and hike 11 miles to the top of Hannegan Pass. They will remain up there till Sunday afternoon when they will come out to reach Bellingham about six. We all desire to reach the top of Mount Baker and we all feel a superiority when we have achieved said accomplishment, but for an all around interesting .trip, it is felt by the- students, that the Hannegan Pass trip is the best summer offering. A little lake, covering about half an acre, sits right in the lap of the Pass, and from one side, water flows down the Fraser river and from the other it goes down the North Fork of the Nooksack river. On one side of the pass is Ruth Mountain and on the other side is Coat Mountain. Both of these, mountains will be climbed by the party. Splendid fishing may be had on either side of the pass. Bedding and food will be packed into the pass by packhorses from Shuksan, thus providing for a lighter load for the hikers. It is enough to carry one's self into the pass without also having to carry provisions for the trip. To hikers who have already been into the Pass, the desirability of carrying along a package of raisins is quite apparent. -o— Librarians Offer '- Reading Helps Farms, houses and other projects on community life comprise the main work being done in Primary Industrial Arts, under Miss Zeal ,Z^ Wilson, successor to Miss Theresa Gunther.

Bates, tenor, gave an entrancing program of old English folksongs in the regular Tuesday morning assembly. Mr. Bates introduced each song with an appropriate anecdote, as well as a brief history of the song. The tenor held his audience under the spell of old memories and times with his charming rendition of the old songs. He was accompanied by Miss Bettie Cross, solo pianiste. After the first group of songs, Miss Cross played several piano solos by modern composers. Miss Cross gave her own charming interpreta-, tion ,of each. \Among the numbers sang by Conrad Bates were: "My Lovely Cecilia," and one on "How Not to Propose." These were exceptionally well received by his hearers. Smith Issues Call Preceding the recital, H. B. Smith, chairman of the Music department, made a plea for more male voices for the choral society. His efforts were ably endorsed by Mr. Bates in the introduction to his program. Mr. Bates is himself an ardent choral fan. The Choral Cluh is to present the cantata, "The Seven Last Words of Christ," in the final assembly of the year.

The exhibit, which will include such Japanese art as silks; textiles, costumes, pottery, and wood block prints, will be ready, for visitors by Wednesday. "More than four hundred. prints have arrived from a Japanese importing ^company", Miss Marie C. Druse, of the Art department, declared, "And will feature the dis-pay.

A-. Bond's beach-baked salmon, and pronounced it "gotfd.; So good, in fact, that "the people" are crying for another one.- There seemed to be something about the combination of hike-in-the-open-air-followed-by-a-plate-of-fish, as delicious as any connoisseur of goodJiving could wish for, that caught the Normal imagination- (or, to be: more accurate, affected the Normal curve of gastronomy). Conscious of the gravity of our mission, we propose that a bigger and better salmon bake be scheduled for later on in the season, in order that those people who were unable to attend the. first one. be able to indulge in what we consider a vesy, very rare treat. For most Nprmalites, after they leave Bellingham, will probably be where there is neither fresh lal-mon obtainable, nor good beaches to bake them on... And for the benefit of those who would like to sponsor private salmon bakes, this is how to bake them, after the manner of Chef Bond. Get a good rock foundation for your fire on the beach, and after the bed rocks are very hot, withdraw the fire. Lay your . fish on a sheet of chickenwire, first wrapping them in oiled paper, surrounded by damp newspaper, and encasing them in. damp seaweed. The seaweed imparts flavor to the fish. Putthe wire on the hot rocks (this will enable you to remove the.fish easily), cover the" whole with earth and sand, and rebuild the fire. Let the fish cook for two hours, uncover carefully, and serve. Six large salmon will serve approximately one hundred and fifty people. - - •.'••••..•_. . / ....•• And, since the barbecuing of salmon sis something of an art, it might not be a bad idea to practice with herring. : .Q ;—r « PROBLEM SOLVED Whether because of the editorial in The Northwest Viking last week, the address in assembly by President Fisher, or-the presence of the strong arm of the law [Monday, the'parking problem seemed to have solved itself this week.

Putnam Sons, the Knickerbocker Press, New York and London, 192$. ~ As a perfectly obvious satire, but one that is overflowing with the most irrepressible humor and sarcasm, "Salt Water Taffy" is. one of the funniest yarns that has come off' the press for a long time. It made its appearance after that, inimitable "true" story by Miss Joan Lowell, "The Cradle b'f the Deep,'; as a deep insinuation as to the veracity of the tale. - . It can be best appreciated after one has seriously read the latter volume,'but it has sufficient merit in its own right to be awfully amus-v ing to anyone who is unsophisticated enough to enjoy that type of book. Of course some of the jokes that appear within the pages of "Salt Water Taffy" are fearfully.raw, but most of them so fit gt; the general hoidehish atmosphere of the book, they are accepted with a grain of salt for an excuse and digested with a grin. .- • ' To anyone who is easily shocked, this bbok would never be recommended; but, to those who appreciate a good yarn arid a rollicking fable, the reviewer's advice is: Read "Salt Water'Taffy."

A Nice Girl Comes to Town, and Bedtime Stories. Perhaps if the elephant would only learn to brush his teeth and manicure his. nails he could do a better job of acting civilized than we are doing. STILL RATIONALIZATION Leading economists of this country all agree that advertising is ninety-nine per cent waste. "Take up this correspondence course and you will gain talent over-night." "Your best friends Wont know you —neither will they tell-you." There is a strong appeal in advertising and many helpful suggestions are gained through that practice. Take the Navy, for example, with their advertising campaign — "Join the Navy and See the World." tThe only troubh with the Navy is that they dont follow up—they let their boat sink in the Poughkeepsie regatta. v SOCIALISM PLUS Playing the Stock Exchange, or the Curb, is a great game, but a highly dangerous one from an economic point of view. If you are on the inside of the dope, playing with stocks is still dangerous. The trouble with most of us is that we rush in and try to clear up a fortune over-night, and the next morning we are forced to take the first good freight train that offers a free ride to the old home' town. We usually take it. However, there are times when good tips get past the Bears and the Bulls.

Last year at the Chicago Intra-Collegiate Track Meet, Wilber Getz, Alfred University miler, had to run the one mile in 4 minutes 19 seconds to win the race.

OR DO THE MARRIED MEN HAVE SUCH A MINORITY IN SCHOOL THEY HAVE TO BORROW TO MAKE' UP A TEAM? Honesty is the first rule in learning golf. That is, when it comes to keeping score.

A bucket of dishwater on these night strollers who insist on getting right under the window of respectable folks and singing, some mournful rhapsody. BOYS AT THE CHORAL.SOCIETY ARE ABOUT AS SCARCE AS FUZZ ON DYNAMITE. It's about as easy to keep your eye on the ball as it is to watch a mosquito do a highland fling on the back of your rieck. 23-17 victory the iVanadis We wonder if it is or "school daze"? By virtue of their last Thursday- over Bragi the Swamp Rabbits now hold forth at the top of the percentage; coumn in the intramural basketball Church, Omeg, f league. Each team has played two games. So far the slate of the crooked hind-ieg aggregation is clean, but stiff competition is; on their calendar in the next two weeks and the other three quintets are promising the closing to be much contested. The basketball schedule calls for games up to the end of the first half of the quarter. At that time an all-star team will be chosen which will probably have, a twoTgame series with the summer students of the University of Washington. The second half of the quarter will be devoted to baseball. The prospect of a series with the University at the close of that season seems to favor a get-together. Swamp Rabbits-Vanadis Bragi The Swamp Rabbits-Vanadis Bragi game last week proved to be a thriller with fast passing and good, teamwork featuring..the play. At th§ half-mark the furry five led by a' narrow margin and in the last half were able to hold it only after being hard pressed. . . . . On Tuesday of this week the Mac's Pets aggregation walked away' with their affair with the Benedicts representing the married men. The homelovers were far in the rear at the half mark, bringing up the tail-end of a 11-2 score. In the second half they seemed to show more zip and garnered four more points but the Pets netted seven more tallies. The final count was 18-6. This game was featured by rough play throughout. Many fouls were called in the first half, but apparently the referee thought it useless to let them go in the second half and football tactics ruled from then "school days" The her^shoes are flyjhg^ick^r how that we' are getting accustomed tor routine work in pur-studies. Bright Challenged a^ elson V and Prehdergast, but took it on the hoof each time. Bud ..Johnson lost a challenge to Prendergast, then/accepted a challenge from Haminett.

The Axelson-Bright match in handball was the only event in that sport played this week. Axelspn won, 21rl5, 21-19. Willy Reeves moved up to first place when "Pop" Guhri failed to appear for his match: The ladder at present is: Reeves, Rad-; cliff, Gunn, Brown, Hanimett, AxV elson, Rule Bright, Carver, Omeg. ^§^$^1^^^ Ham Church moved dovm; from, the top pf the ladder when ha lost: tsvpiardfought sete to Prendergast, 6-(4i 6-2.

After winning a long drawn-Put deuce set, 9/7, it was a mere matter of a few minutes for Willard to come forward and take the next set from his weakened opponent. Rhodes, the big tennis-threat man from down- South, beat Reeves two straight sets to move up two notches. The top men should look him over and then worry over the prospect of his coming to the front, which he wlli undoubtedly do. The ladder now stands with•PrendergasJ; first, followed by Boynton, Church, Reff, Lewis, Willardi Reeves, Schaffer, and Summers. Rhodes, Duyff, Bond, Korsboen Golf Given Break For First Time In Summer School Session History For the first time during a summer school session the old, old sport of golf is going to get a break. The ladder has been drawn and about all that remains is for each man fig-, ure out his handicap. It was not definitely decided just how the play on. Many substitutions were made by both sides. The mated ones, by changing the. two forward positions evidently were trying to find a smooth; working machine, but to no avail. Mac's, men couldn't be' stopped, Line-Ups Thursday's game — Swamp Rabbits:- Geri and Perry, forwards; Lundberg, center; Weber and Blank-ship,, guards. Vanadis Bragi, Swanson and Korsboen,- forwards gt; Brown, center; Smith and Kelly, guards. Tuesday's game—Mac's Pets, Hun-nicutt and, .Johnson, forwards; Rhodes, center; McCleary and Johnston, guards. Benedicts, Franz and Hatley, forwards; Radcliffe, center; Bell and Bright, guards. . ,* would be held, but, as there is a range of ability in scores all the way^ fOr.forties up to seventies,/it was decided best to figure out each player's average, score, and use this~ as a basis for match-play. It is not. probable that many games will be played this week but with the return from a three-day rest the playoff gt; of challenges will be started in earnest. Several of the men signed up have' been caddies in their more youthful ,days and have been bringing the score down toward the coveted par for some time.' It is more than likely that-most of the matches will be, played off at the Riverside. Public Golf course, located on the Ferndale highway. Drawings for the ladder placed the men in the following positions: Prendergast, Reeves, Studebaker, Bright, Keithley, Kuzmoski, Nos-trant, Jackson, Kelly, Hunnicutt and Jones. •"•'".', .' _ ^o———— .-'.'.

During the winter he is at school most of the day under the supervision of the teacher, and the parents are concerned with him only for the morning and evening. In the summer time he is at home all day. Emerson says the child learns more from the book under the desk than from the book over the desk, which is another way of saying^ that a child learns more by play than in any other way. / In some schools there are teachers oh the playgrounds to direct and to co-operate with the child's play. Nowadays parents send their children to summer camps. In these camps play predominates, but there is careful supervision. But many families cannot afford to send their children to these camps. Something should be done for the city children who must play in the street. The Child Study Association of America has been working on this problem and the results are worth noting. Nineteen Summer Play Schools were opened in New, York last year under its direction. There is a direct program that the children follow. •••.•• lt; While the kind of work that a child does in summer must differ radically from the kind of work he does in winter, more stress being laid oh play, at the same time he should always be subjected to discipline. Handwork, music and home-making projects are more suited for the summer time. This^ category may fall in line with Industrial Arts. There is also play, which is subject to certain rules in order to get the most fun out of it and to do the most good. . This, then, is another problem that the teacher may face and one which requires special training, both in playground supervision and professional skill —CD. —: -° :—- EBBA FREDERIGKSON PLAYS IN ASSEMBLY Ebba Frederickson, violinist, accompanied by Miss Hattie.

Only one student dropped out on account of ill health. She was not asked to leave, but it was advised that a discontinuance of studies during the summer would improve her condition. Miss Mead enthusiastically commented on the splendid physical condition of some of the older students, whose vim and vitality would surpass that of many of the younger students. One older . student has missed only two days from the schoolroom in twelve years. Another teacher has taught eight years, without losing a single day. When You Are Hungry and Want .

XXXI—NO. 8 WASHINGTON STATE NORMAL SCHOOL, BELLINQHAM, WASHINGTON Friday, November 2 0 ; I 3 3E Normalite EXPLOSION SCANDAL TOO TRUE By D. CUSTER ANDERSON . « . - • • II • • ,•' * • • "» ' We haven't had much clear weather at night to see the predicted meteor showers this week. In ports of California the shower was seen clearly and Chester Hartley, World War yet of El Centre* California, gave a vivid description of the phenomenon when he declared that the shower lit up the desert country surrounding the inland sea and startled ducks and duck hunters... "I remained up all night to see the meteors, and the only sight r v e ever known to equal it was one of the heavy barrages that lit and tore up French battlefields. But the lack of noise and explosion made the entire thing weird and awesome," he said... Several well-known Normal couples attempted to view the shower (so they said) but failed. (Hah, that's a hot one.) ^W.S.N.S. At last an important step has been taken in the treatment of insanity cases and it may or may not be the initial step in curing the mental diseases. At Cornell University, certain mental trouble due to the "colloids" of the brain becoming too watery or too thick, has been rendered curable. It is a fairly common ailment and a drug has now been discovered which makes the victim well almost immediately. One case cited, was a man who had lain in a stupor for eight months and was brought back to his senses in less than four minutes. No cure-all has as yet been discovered but since an important discovery has been made, everything may be hoped for. Don't give up the ship yet, students. —W.S.N.S. Theodore Dreiser, of "The American Tragedy" fame is certainly the receiver of plenty of sarcasm lately. We sometimes wonder what it is all, about. "The world loves a lover", but oh, HOW the world loves scandal about an author. Anyway, whether he's right or wrong, good or bad, he furnishes a lot of copy for the great American newspaper, giving some reporter a break. W.S.N.S. YE DIARY.

HIKE Weather conditions will determine the destination of the W. A. A.'s hike on Saturday, November 21. If it is a clear day the girls will, climb Chuckanut Mountain, if not they will hike to Lake Padden. The hikers will meet in front of the main building at one o'clock sharp, and will start as soon as they have decided upon the destination. The number of girls taking these trips has been gradually mcreasuig, accord to Miss Lillian ,-Gic^e,/Vta»der^^ but; ^toere^iij 8t^ Tp(^ 'Q REGISTRATION MADE LAST TIMES TODAY Deans Bever and Jones Gone; Sperry, Druse and Kibbe Are Returning FEES TO BE PAID ' Appointments for registration for the Winter quarter at the Normal school began last Wednesday and end today. No appointments will be made later than today. Dean Bever is planning on a trip to either Arizona or California next quarter and Miss Nora Cummins will take his place. Miss Adele M. Jones, Dean of Women, also will be away. She is going to New York. Miss Marie C. Druse, Miss M. Belle Sperry, and Mr. L. A. Kibbe, who have been away this quarter on leave of absence, will be back in the Winter quarter and resume their former duties. Pay Fees The students who do their second or third year teaching during the Winter quarter will report to Miss Katherine Hays in Room 122 for their appointments. They will pay their fees December 7, afternoon only. All other students will report to the Recorder in the Business office and pay their fees on the afternoon of December 8, 9, 10 and 11. People now teaching in rural school will pay the fees on Saturday forenoon, December 5. Students now in school who do not register on the days provided will be required to (Continued on Page Three) '"- o GIRLS'SPORT TEAMS PLAY FIRST GAMES Second Intramural Soccer Game Victory Won by Whites Competition is proving, k e en among members of the girls' intramural sport teams. First games have been played in hockey, soccer and volleyball. Girls Play in Snow Playing amid the falling snow, Tuesday afternoon the second intramural soccer game was played. The girls turning out have been divided into two teams, the Greens and Whites. Almost swimming in puddles of water and mud on the athletic field the Whites won over the Greens, the score being 1 to 0. During the first half the Greens greatly outplayed the Whites, but in the second half Inez Wilson made the only score of the game on a break play. Inez, stumbling along, found a hole in the field and dribbled the ball clear down for the only goal. As a whole the game was extremely close, Mary Tarbox playing the best for the Greens. Yellows Win Over Greens Two teams have also been chosen for hockey, the Greens captained by Loraine Shepard and the Yellows by June McLeod. In the first game played Monday afternoon the Yellows were victorious over the Greens in a close game, with a final score of 2 to 1. Elva Pilquist proved to be the big star of the game. After Thanksgiving the class hockey Warns are to be chosen, following the intramural series. Three Volleyball Teams In the two volleyball games played so far this season thie teams have been well matched, with close competition. In the first game played' November 12 the second team, captained by Marion Grieve, was victorious over the first, captained by Ethel Jacobsen. November 17 the third team beat the first in an extremely close battle. Iola Grue is captain of the third team. The first schedule of games will be completed by next Wednesday and the second schedule will commence December 1. y[ : : Miss Mildred Jewell is coac the vblleyball and hockey tea arM Miss MarjeryHcrton the 'cerii:t*am*:;;;i;fe; Ebba Dahlin, Lecturer, WillGive Talk For Tuesday's Assembly "The Disunited States of Europe", has been provisionally selected as the topic of the lecture to be delivered by Dr. Ebba Dahlin, assistant professor of history at the University of Washington, at next Tuesday morning's assembly, November 24. Dr. Dahlin, who received her Ph. D. degree from Stanford University, is one of the youngest assistant professors in the country, being in her early, thirties. She lectured here during the Pall quarter last year, and was received with great enthusiasm. Owing to the misunderstanding which arose over the topic for the Lewis Browne lecture, the subject of her address has been only tentatively announced, and is subject to change. —. o STUDENTS REVEAL RELIGIOUS BELIEFS Majority of Students Have Church Preferences Have you a religion? Some have not, according to a recent inquiry made concerning the church preference status in the Normal school. But figures reveal a minority group who seem to "doubt." Only 103 out of an attendance of 714 students appear to be undecided about their religious beliefs. Of the present enrollment of 255 men and 459. women; the former are less apt to express themselves religiously than the latter. The following figures show that 57 men and 46 women decline to state church preferences. This apparent lack of religious enthusiasm might arouse some consternation on the part of the ministers; but perhaps these undecided ones have failed to reach conclusions concerning all of their beliefs. At any rate, why worry, when they are few in number in comparison with those who have solved their religious problems. Popular Churches Is it true that women are more religious- than men? Judging by the following figures one would be apt to think so. By way of contrast to those expressing no church preferences, the Methodists are the most numerous of church going individuals, with 50 men and 100 women. The Presbyterian church is second in order of popularity with 51 men and 69 women. Even the L u t h e r a n denomination claims (Continued from Page Three) SNAPSHOT CONTEST TO BE FEATURE OF NORMAL YEAR-BOOK "Northwestern Outdoor Life" Theme; Cover of Book Is Brown Velour Is SKETCHES.ARE USED To procure humorous or informal pictures of school life for the 1932 Klipsun, Normal's annual snapshot contest has been announced by the year-book staff. The contest, beginning now and ending at a date in the spring, to be decided later, is open to all students of the school. Prizes of a Klipsun for the best photograph and one dollar for the next best will be awarded. The prize winning snapshots, together with the best of the others, will be printed in the Klipsun. The subjects of the pictures may be any student or still objects connected with school life. The snapshots, only—not the negatives— are to be handed in at the Students' Association office to Charles Dowell on Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays between 11 and 12 o'clock. Theme Decided The theme, cover, and content of the book also have been decided by the staff. "Northwestern Outdoor Life" is to be the theme which will be carried out with pictures and appropriate topics. One feature of the publication will be a series of charcoal sketches depicting the subject at the-beginning of the book, in place of photographs which have been used in previous years.

Griffith on Sunday afternoon, November 22. The program, which will be in keeping with the Thanksgiving spirit, will be given at 4 o'clock in the St. James Presbyterian church, located at Fourteenth and Taylor. Mr. Griffith, a former student of Normal and at present a teacher of piano and organ in this city, will be assisted in his program by Mrs. Gwendolyn Geary Ruge, a soprano from Sedro-Woolley.

Its human nature to whitewash hut .some of it is done so poorly and so hurriedly that it leaves only a disgusting mess of things. The girl who says, "Parties like those are really worth while; one meets people whose names are in the Blue Book," is white washing. The man who says, "Bill's a good sport and lots of fun, but he has no background and no family," is whitewashing. The great American sport, whitewashing. indoor Is It Worth It? We Ask "The scrappy little Army end, with his long face and his almost skimpy frame—but full of great zeal, for all of that—charged down the field on the trail of a flying Yale back." "He did not slow up," Burt Whitman says in the Boston Herald, quoting an official of the game — Tome McCabe, of the Herald's staff. "It was not the routine tackle," said McCabe. "It was a head-on smash against Las-siter, and low down, possibly against the latter's knee, maybe against his thigh. But it was head-on, terrific, and terrifying. There was a sharp crack. He crumpled. There was no rebound, no roll. He dropt loosely, on his left side." Thus with lightning rapidity, Cadet Richard Brinsley Sheridan, Jr., of West Point, was fatally injured when his neck was fractured, in making that final tackle. Rushed in a screaming ambulance to the New Haven hospital, he failed to regain consciousness despite ecorts of the greatest surgeons in America. Here was a barren end to what would undoubtedly have been a brilliant military career. Sheridan was a fighter. Denied the opportunity to enter the academy by appointment, he enlisted in the regular army, and was admitted when he made a splendid showing in the competitive examinations. In football, he crashed his way from the scrubs to the varsity. And now a marble slap marks his place in the West Point cemetery. His was the most widely discussed entry on the frightful casualty list of this year's football season, and revives anew the regret of the nation on this unfortunate feature of the sport. Is football! as now played, worth the thousands of less serious hurts that will harass many players to he end of their days? Players enter these combats, exalted to het Hit Aest pitch of enthusiasm, and willing to brave any danger in order to gain a victory. But is it worth-while,' we ask, to display in any game, the same superlative courage and strength of character that should be the portion of life itself? Let's not be pessimistic. Lightning only strikes once in the same place, you know. Still, who can stay in the same place all his life? confidential. Don't dare We hear this on every side Thantsgi^g|T6^Be You're Holding Out On Us •S ' j ; "Sh!" "Better not say that." "This print it." "You don't need to know that and it's getting tiresome. "Is it something you're ashamed of," we ask, and you answer, " O ! goodness no, only, but, etc." We ask for your reasons and you explain it's purely "psychological". You have no objections to "so and such" knowing it, but then "such and so" might not understand it and misinterpret. ^Seriously though, we see your point of view If you let out some information you would have to tell more. And all that is lots of trouble. You don't think it's worth it. "What people don't know, doesn't hurt them,"'Ss, your idea. / ~ Here is another point of view, however. We're interested in things around here. The way things are done and managed are not all our businss but still they affect us and we would like to know about them. We are not dissatisfied. We like most everything fine and are inclined to doubt if things could be managed different or better. There are some things, however, we wonder about. We are not criticising. We would just like to have things explained. And everything can be explained, we hope. We're positive, of that, in fact. Please remember we_are not faultfinding, but in general we are a little suspicious of anything that isn't periodically exposed to light. Our chief trouble is a healthy curiosity. May our curiosity be satisfied before ~jt turns toi dissatisfaction. Tallulah Bankhead, the" movie star who has recently been toast of London, has as her motto, "Be yourself". And then there is the girl who married a man for his money. A newspaper editorial states, "The name of President Harding is being cleared." To the people in Marion, Ohio, that President's name was never blackened. And Marion, no doubt, is small enough to have a Main Street. Harding couldn't get by with much on Main Street. Those of us who do silly, thoughtless, human things, should beware of Main Street. Wuxtra! Wuxtra! Someone must think our column is at least being read—it was cut last week. That's a real compliment. "/ met ten thousand men on the Putney High Street and they Were all my brothers," so says the poet. But one day I met those men and I saw nothing in their eyes but haired. And then again when the sun was shining and the sky was blue, someone smiled at me. It's the simple things in life that really matter. When you went away and took my heart I threw away my smile also but tonight in the snow and wind I met my smile face to face. I saw a little kiddie playing in the snow and a tall man going home with, a sack, of flour on his shoulder... My smile came back to me and I saw rose candles glowing over a fireplace and the smoke curling white. It's the simple things that really count. A slice of brown bread and butter with apple sauce—a leafless tree, snow laden at night, a clean gingham apron. Don't lose your smiles, friend, and don't let life twist them. Keep to the simple things—the whitewashed things don't count. One day I met you On the path— You were breaking things Things of silver and blue Dashing them against A rocky cliff They were your ideals And I touched your arm To stop you But you pulled Your hand, free u And went on breaking I could only sigh And lake the path Again.— Revelling leaves and glistening fruits,; glorious heralds of the autumn harvest season, will add their color to the "Festival of Thankfulness" to be celebrated by the Training school on Wednesday, November 25. '. This festival, wtdch is a traditional feature of the school's yearly observance of: Thanksgiving, has been produced in only two other parts of the United States; at the Francis W. Parker School at the University of Chicago^ where it originated, and at Greensborough, South Carolina. : , Lines Rewritten Although the plan of the celebration is fairly uniform from year to year, all the lines have been rewritten by students ^ of the seventh and eighth grades, after a study of poems on autumn. Likewise, the dances were redesigned, by those taking part in them. Students playing the leads in the festival are: Jean Larrabee, AtT tendant of the Leaves; Janet Thorne, Attendant of the Grapes; Howard Murray, Attendant of the Harvest; and Miss Eletha Storme, Goddess of the Harvest. Miss Storme, Goddess' of the Harvest, will be enthroned on a dais, surrounded by grains, autumn fruits and greenery. A ten-piece orchestra, directed by Harold B. Smith, will furnish music for the processional and recessional. Parents Invited The program, to which the parents are invited, is as follows: Processional ...Selected Hymn: "Come Ye Thankful People, Come" Attendant of the Leaves speak: "Now illumined is the earth with exquisite colors of autumn". Dance of the Leaves ...Fifth and Sixth grade girls Song: "The Joy of Harvest" Entire School Attendant of the Grapes speaks: "God hath left fruitfulness in abundance."

Miss Mildred Jewell is in charge of the dancing, Miss Bertha Crawford directs the speaking, and Miss Priscilla Kinsman is chairman of the committee on stage decoration. Other Thanksgiving observance, aside from the festival, consists of contributions to be made by the Training school to the Red Cross Milk fund, and the City Mission. _ o A visitor at the school Monday was Jack Greaves, former Viking business manager.

H. Hoppe director of the coming Drama club .play, "Camille- in Roaring Camp", perhaps some explanation -should be given for the production fo such a play. , 1 The play, which; is to be produced here Thursday and Friday, Dec. 3 and 4, is a revival hy Arthur Wood Stevens. It might be well to mention in this connection that. Mr. Stevens is a prominent author in the field of dramatic revivals, having been in charge of the recent Yorktown pageant held in- Virginia and the Masquer .of St. Louis, held in Missouri. Revivals Popular. Revivals'-of various types including Shakespearean and melodramatic, have' been received with much popularity by colleges and the theater-going public in general during the last year or two. Mr. Hoppe has produced only modern dramas here of late but because of the popularity of the revivals he felt that such a play as "Camille" would be, enjoyed by Normal school audiences. The play which is very new, being still in manuscript form, Mr. Hoppe brought back with him from the University of Michigan where it was produced under the direction of Mr. Stevens, himself, this summer. It is expected that the play will be produced in New York this season. Large Cast Another .reason for the selection of this play is that it has a cast of twenty-eight members and, there-lore, will give a comparatively large jiumber of students an opportunity to act. Although there are several minor parts in the play, almost every character has at least one "big moment" in which he can display his dramatic ability. Changes in Cast Several changes Jtiave been made since the selection of a tentative cast for the play. The cast as.it how stands" and aVit'wiUvaiSpearVtti the production to show here December 3 and 4 4s as follows: Jake, Marshall Bacon; Ah Sin, Bert West; An Onery Cuss, Hugh Lovegren; the Duchess, Virginia George; Cherokee Sal, Eileen Taylor; Colonel Starbottle, Ed Myers; the Judge, Bill Button; John Oak-hurst, Lew Lovegren; Jack Hamlin, Charles Anderson; Stumpy, D.

Old Man Winter is showing his true spirit by bursting forth into undecided flurries of rain and snow. What can one wear to meet the changing weather needs? -Just at present about the most sensible and inexpensive clothes to wear are the knitted sport togs. Many of the dresses today are made of the knit Jerseys, the knit crepes, and the knit light weight woolens. These can be obtained in a variety of styles;.;, two piece suits in contrasting colors, one piece frocks with colorful braid trim or even a corduroy with tailored lines. Sport jackets of all sizes and descriptions herald the. coming of a winter of either snow or rain. The lumber-jack, type in gay colors of red, green, yellow, flaunt their utter defiance to the cold winds of November:' The new type of rain coat in a "peach-skin" colorful suede with a fancy leather trim scoffs at the mere mention of a drenching rain, and even the little suede jacket sniffs at the idea that some young miss might get cold while, enveloped in its warm folds. To prevent that yearly sore throat try wrapping a multi-colored scarf about your neck. These seems to be no end to the ingenuity displayed in getting out scarfs for the winter season. There are silk ones in plain and fancy colors, there are woolen ones with bright stripes, there are part wool and part silk ones in any color of the rainbow, there are straight, narrow ones, there are big square C02y ones, and there are smart three-cornered ones. The newest way to wear one of that big square cozy kind is to fold the scarf so that it forms a triangle, place it around the neck and tie in the back, then bring the ends around and let them hang down in front. VISING M^Qft PLANS. ACTIVITIES ¥6ft^YEAR Under the leadership ,of Cullin Baker, president, Viking Manor, 501 High -street;• -was the-.first men's house to^oi-gahize arid elect officers for the School year., John Stiger was electHd Vice-president and Paul Grimes secretary- treasurer. Viking, i Manor plans to enter a basketball team in the Intermural league and promise to present a strong aggregation. The club is going to add ten' more members to their, house. These members are going to be fellows from outside the house. The house already has garnered some fame through the recent contest during homecoming, when they placed second with a poster originated by Mort Hogile. Informal parties are held every two weeks at the house, and a good time always has been the result. . O : \ STUDENTS ARE MAKING REGISTRATON DATES (Continued from Page One) CHURCH PREFERENCE STATISTICS REVEALED (Continued from Page One) To match these scarfs, are/ the woolen gloves. These also can be bought in a variety of styles and color. Plain colors with fancy tops are perhaps the most popular. They are warm and serviceable and can be used on many occasions. So far the footwear for the winter siege seems to be a good serviceable brogue, or oxford. These are found in styles with perforations, flaps, and fringes. Galoshes are also holding their own in form-ng a necessary part of the average young lades' footwear. o SOPHOMORE PARTY PROVES BIG SUCCESS MPRESSED BY^ MEN 1 ^ (•Continued frpm.

And the Christian Science church has attracted only 8 men but 34 women, these figures differing but little from those of the Congregational, 32 women and 9 men. Other Denominations Other denominations interesting both men and women respectively are: Baptists, 20 men and 30 women; Episcopal, 12 men and 30 women; Christian, 21 men and 22 women; Jewish, 3 men and 2,women; First Advent Christian, 1 man and 4 women; Missionary Alliance, 1 man and 4 women. The following churches were chosen by men: Protestant, 5; Christian Alliance, 1; Plymouth Brethren, 1; Bethlehem, Israel, 1; .Latter Day Saints, 1; High Church of England, 1. Still others that were chosen by women are: Catholic, 29; Church of Jesus Christ, 1; Dutch Reformed, 1; Pentecostal, 2; Unity, 1; Swedish Bap-tist, 2; Norwegian Lutheran,;. 2;-: Seventh Day Adyentist,;2fe .•';/., ' ,.r"~'V.:'';\/._v; "V BorghUde Kaisperson spent last week-end.:;...lit^fii;;e i;ti e ; attending ''hoiriecojmiijg;^.^^^^^ Open umbrellas, number thir-teens, ladders, black cats, and many other objects of superstition apparently did not worry the sophomores at their party held in the big gym last Friday night. Much of the success of the party is due to the efforts of Helen Edgar, chairman of the decorations committee for the interesting way she carried out the idea of "superstition" in decorating the big gym. The chairmen of the various committees were Jean Murray, refreshments; Jean Morse, entertainment; and Vernon Leatha, cleanup. o — WHITMAN GLEE CLUB PLEASES LARGE CROWD pay late registration fees beginning with Monday; January 4. Attention is called to the following provision on page 20 of the general catalog: "A fee of one dollar is charged for. each day's delay in registering up to the close of the week during which registration is permitted." Do Not Choose Curricula Next quarter the beginning freshmen do not choose their curricula. They choose it in the Spring quarter. All students taking the same freshman courses in English, History of ''Civilization, Science and Civilization, Art, Home Economics, Educationl, Speech, Physical Education and other freshman courses must fit into the freshman sched ules and into the Fall, Winter and Spring'groups in order to distribute the number in the classes. Students who have had courses in Oral' Ex pression, Dramatics, Debate or oth er corresponding subjects are ex empted from Speech 1 and are al lowed to elect two or three credits in other courses or in Speech when such courses are offered. The fol lowing is a list of suggestions for Speech eiec£ives!= English 3a', 3b, 70, and 71; Industrial Arts 71, 72, 104, 108, and 133; Music 7, and 141; and Typing 1 and 2. Eight Quarters' Work The third and fourth quarter students already have chosen their curricula. They will not graduate until next year and will be programmed from the check lists. They must plan upon a minimum of eight quarter's work before graduating. Their courses should be chosen so that they may teach during the fall or winter quarters next year. Essential sequences in preparation for student teaching should be kept in mind. It seems desirable'-that these students take their teaching and Technique 7 in the Spring quarter so they may help to fill'the probable gap in student teachers •• for the Fall and Winter quarters next year.

That ever-popular winter pastime is just around the corner and we're kind of glad that it is. Just a little disappointed in the Vikings football games this year, it is hoped that the Normal hoopsters can be just a little more success f a t injuries and tough competition set the Viking grM men back on their heels and kept them there for the greater part of t he season. V.'.., :—o -a-—;—" The Vikings seemed to have a wealth of material when the opening, scrimmage began but just could not click in the "territory where touchdowns are made." The game last Saturday saw several Viking performers make their final bows as Normal players. Flowers, the outstanding halfback on the team; Iverson, piston - leggd fullback; Shelton, halfback; Sutton, husky tackle; Falkner, guard; Abbott, the crack end .of the eleven; and Cox, outstanding end man. -——o—=—-o—— These fellows have played bang-up football this season and seasons previous to this. We hate to see them leave. What a task it will be to fill the gaps in t h e line and back-field left by these men. But with a few veterans back from this year's •quad, a fairly formidable team should be molded. _ o o After five minutes of the game had elapsed last week against the visiting St. Martins Rangers, to every spectator it was obvious that the Vikings were outclassed. This Banger team is a honey. Using the Notre Dame shift to perfection, plus a working passing attack, buried the Vikings deep in the Waldo mud by, a four-touchdowh margin. It was a losing game for t he Vikings throughout the sixty minutes, but, believe you me, they didn't lay down on the job for one second. i o Although the season is over for the Vikings, and nearly extinguished over the entire country, we'd like to say a feu) words about the ball packing aces of any team. Throughout the season the names of the outstanding backs of the country have been on the lips of all football fans. And nearly all of them have been the ball-toting men. We'd like to offer you a little poem about the other backs on the field. JACK AND JOE They slip the ball to speedy Joe, And gleeful thousands roar When romping over end he does go And gallops to a score. While Joe is cheered exultantly There is no mighty shout For plugger Jack, The blocking back, Who took the tackier out. And.isnt it a fact, you-football fans? o o =— Defeating Franklin school on Waldo field last Tuesday, 13 to 2, Coach Ted Clarke's Lowell grade school football team won the city championship. The southsiders succeeded to the crown worn last year by Boeder. Lowell's record includes a 34 to 0 victory over Roosevelt, and a 19 to 0 win over Roeder.

"Pop" Gunn and his Jayvees always have made a name for themselves in the Class B league. Last year they, placed third in the league, dropping three games out of sixteen played.

'• This syemt ty exceptionally strwtg, with ^ GAME OF SEASON TO Visitors Superior in Almost All Departments of Game, Win 26 to 0 GAINS MADE ON PASSES St. Martin's College, the football farm of the University of Washington, came to town last Saturday to demonstrate the Notre Dame shift and incidentally to close the grid season for the Vikings. The husky Rangers ran, passed and battered their way through a stubborn Viking eleven to a 26-0 victory. From the opening whistle to the final gun there was little question of the Rangers' superiority. A few minutes after the game started Si-billia, husky half, scooted around end to score the initial score of the Laceyites. This touchdown came after a steady seventy-yard march down the field. Score Again In the opening of the second quarter, the Rangers heaved three passes in rapid succession. Two were completed for twenty-five yards gain each. Three or four short gains were then made at the line. Then a short pass from Horn-beak to Lazervitch, towering end, was good for the second Ranger score. Long Run Registered It took but five plays in the third quarter for the Rangers to punch over another touchdown. Muszyn-ski, flashy St. Martin's halfback, broke away through tackle and was not stopped until he had terminated a fifty-yard run to the Vikings' ten-yard marker. A couple of line smashes by Bufkin, high-stepping half, and presto! another score. Hornbeak converted. Grook, a substitute back, scored the final Ranger touchdown after a long pass from Bufkin had been completed on the two-yard line. Again the conversion was successful. The fast charging Ranger line smothered the Viking offense and they never advanced beyond the visitors' twenty-yard line. Iverson, Flowers Star The Vikings made a few substantial gains when in mid-field but were unable to penetrate within scoring distance. Iverson and Flowers reeled off some lengthy gains, but couldn't quite break away from the hard-tackling Rangers. On the line Abbott, Berg and Sybrant were outstanding. Donovan played a nice game in the backfield. The Rangers, using the Notre Dame shift, clicked nicely and displayed a deceptive running and passing attack. The St. Martin's lineup included: Robb, Lazarevitch, ends; Pun, Hansen, tackles; Oldham, Stamps, guards; Mondela, center; Horn-beak, quarterback; Sibellia, Bufkin, halfbacks; Muszynski, fullback. The Viking lineup included: Abbott, Gissberg, ends; VanOver, Sybrant, tackles; Comfort, Falkner, guards; Berg, center; Flowers, quarter; Donovan, Shelton, halfbacks; Iverson, fullback. Smith, Williams, Charlesworth, Sutton and Christy, substitutes. —o — Women Recall Youth On Invigorating Tramp To Boy Scout Cabin Going back to their childhood days, twenty-five W. A. A. girls enjoyed a wiener roast, followed by a camp fire, stories, songs and such games as farmer in the dell, three-deep and other games so dear to the heart of every child. The scene for this gay occasion was the Boy Scout cabin at Geneva; the time, last Saturday evening, November 14. Taking the 4:30 Lake Whatcom car, the girls got off at the park and started the two and a half-mile hike to the cabin. It was proclaimed a delightful hike—just cold enough to make one feel radiantly alive, the mellow moon peeping through the dark green tree§ of the forest, the stars peeping out one by one. Reaching the rustic log cabin,a hearty welcome awaited the girls, for a committee led by Miss Lillian George had preceded the parly to make preparations. A cheery blaSse in the fireplace, and then hot biscuits with honey and jam, plenty of wieners, the feeling of perfect contentment that; comes at rare moments, awaited the girls.
