Have you throught about your part in it? There is desperate need for that precious plasma on the front. There is also a sluggish lack ofcooperation on the part of Western students in the campaign. Here are some of ther "reasons" so manyof the students give for refusing to donate: (1) Oh, they don't want mine. Besides, (giggle, giggle) I can'tspare the blood myself." Ugh! (2) Then there's the one with a full schedule, too busy for anything. "Don'thave the time! Too busy!" (Too busy to save a life?) (3) 'Aw, that's just another blown up 'do-your duty-for-your-country sort of thing. Okay for Polly-annas and such, but not fpr 'me'!"

Gambling, however, was listed as contrary to the rules of the board. The purpose of the ruling, Gillie explained, is to permit the playing of sociable games, such as pinochle and cribbage. He said that there will be no policing to enforce theno-gambling rule, but that a student honor system will be practiced. "If this fails, the board may see fitto revoke the card-playing privilege," he added. Card players were asked not to bring their own cardsinto the lounge, but to use those which are provided in the lounge. They must sign for games and cardsand take responsibility for returning them. The lounge rules were drjtwp up at the request of themanager, Louis Earle, and the Board of Control. They incorporate and consolidate several previousboard rulings. They read: (Continued on Page 3) Senior Banquet Draws Near Ticket sales for the Senior banquet, February 20 at the Hotel Leopold, will close Monday afternoon, according to CaroleIrwin, ticket sales chairman.

Millsincluded on the masthead. • Next Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, students of WWC will havethe opportunity to donate a pint of blood and celebrate Brotherhood week in this way. The local Elksclub is sponsoring this drive and donations will be received from 10 a. m. to 8 p. m., each day. Oncampus, the Rheba D.

GPS FacultyBlocks Participation College of Puget Sound will not participate in any exchange programs this year.ASB Vice-President Larry Wilson, telephoning Tacoma Wednesday evening, learned that a CPS facultyadministration committee on student affairs had turned down student requests to take part in anexchange assembly program. Letters to other colleges will be sent ont immediately and an attemptwill be made to arrange an exchange assembly wi^h another college, Wilson said. "If we stick by ourefforts and do a good job, next year CPS and other skeptical schools will come around to favoring theECSA exchange assembly programs," stated Wilson. ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1952 February 15 - Page 2 ---------- Board Action On Unauthorized Band Expenditure Questioned After delaying action for over three weeksWednesday afternoon the Board of Control agreed to pay $247 out of Associated Students' funds fortransportation of the college band to the College of Puget Sound football game fall quarter.Reconstructing from official Board minutes we find the following facts: This trip was not included in theMusic department budget: This trip was not authorized by the Board of Control. Yet student body fundsare paying for the trip.r WHY? It is time for the administration, the Board of Control, and departmentchairmen to realize that budgets are not relative things to be followed or not followed at the discretion ofthe persons administering the budgets. Because this is not the first time that the Music department hasshown that they are unable to properly administer a budget the WWCollegian makes the followingrecommendations: any deficit incurred by the Music department (including the $247) shall be substracted from next year's budget, until the Music department proves its stewardship; all Music departmentexpenditures shall be approved by the Board." This situation could have been avoided if the Board and the administration had taken more forceful action fall quarter when the Music department budget failureswere shown. Wilson Reports On Assembly Western Exchange assembly looks like it's "really going tobe a good -show," announced Chairman Larry Wilson to board of control members at the meetingWednesday afternoon in the ASB office. Wilson says there will be a large number of performers in theshow, lots of dancing, lots of singing, and that it will be "clean." Rules for use of the lounge werepresented to the board. Paul Gillie was authorized to purchase social games to be played in the lounge.It was announced that the ASB has decided to pay the bill for a trip which the band made to College ofPuget Sound last year. . Other business included the study of Charles Odell's draft for the constitution of the Evergreen students' conference. The constitution revision committee will look the draft over forapproval, before it is presented to the conference at the meeting here in May.

(Of course they've had a couple of weeks, but maybe t h eycommunicate by pony express.) (5) "Well, gosh, I don't know my own type. What if I have some real odd type that they can use?" Pretty good argument, but let us point out that there must be others with thattype, and if it is so odd, just think how hard it is for them to get it. Besides, for those of you who don'tknow your type, as many don't, this is one way of finding out. If none of these excuses fit you or are inthemselves just an excuse for the main difficulty of most of us —being "just plain scared" — then youmight have some real reason for not giving. If so, you're probably one of those who really like to givebut for some reason, and we all know that there are some very definite reasons why some people cant,are not able too. In that case, we think a lot more of you that we do of those people who just offer one ofthe above mentioned lame excuses. Come on WESTERN, GIVE!

However, he thinks students don't appreciate anddon't seem to want to appreciate the type of talent these programs present. Miss Ethel Church,longtime member of the planning board, outlined some difficulties encountered while choosing artists.People do not wish to appear in such an out-of-the-way place. Financing is a serious problem; suitingeveryone's taste is exceeding hard. (Evidently!) Charles Messinger, reports that members of Inter Clubcouncil feel non-attendance at assemblies h as become a serious problem. At first the council made anunsuccessful attempt to bolster attendance by publicity. Now it is preparing a questionnaire for all clubsto fill out giving preferences as to type of artists. The results will be turned in to the committee.Several general complaints which have been registered are these: (1) Too large percentage of andsimilarity of musical assemblies; (2) cultural level too high for younger college students; (3) students not trying to profit from assemblies; (4) planning committee too small and interest of membersperhaps not varied enough, (5) student feeling that series is "push-icy of building-closing; (6) non-attendance of faculty. Suggestions for the improvement of the programs include: (1) a poll of studentpreferences; (2) election of more student members of planning committee; (3) printing of programnotes and other helpful advance information in the Collegian.

Jim McGregor, the Black and White coach, relies on a fast break system and aggressive defensive play. It works too, for the Pirates have proven themselves a top team in the past season, having made a very impressive showing. It appears that the star of Whit-worth's team is Jim Doherty, guard, whoscored a new Evergreen conference record with 45 points in the recent tilt with Western. Completing the team to back Doherty will Clothier Wins in Freestyle Event; Western Lose Meet Coach Ray Hyatt's Vikings went down to defeat, for the second time this season before the University of WashingtonHuskies last Friday in the Seattle pool by a score of 69 to 15. Coach Hyatt's charges, led by MiltClothier, who won a bril-liant victory over the Huskies' Tatom in the 50-yard freestyle, showedtremendous improvement, even though losing to the Northern division champs. Although the score was very lopsided, the Westerners greatly improved on theirifrevious marks and were by no meansdisgraced in falling to the power-laden Huskies. Clothier won the 50 in the smart time of 26:7, and was high individual scorer for the blue and white with six counters. Other men who figured in the scoringwere: Jim Boettcher, 4 points; Ken German, 2; Stan Frey, 1; Barry Davis, 1; and Hank Rogers, 1.Swimmers who showed great improvement but failed to finish in the money were Jerry Hansen, ArtLee, Dick Krull, Dick Croghan, John Snapper and Al Swanberg. In the 300 yard relay, the Washingtoncrew turned in the third fastest time ever registered by a Husky team in its own tank. be Ralph Poison,Ray and Roy Beach, and Bill Freeman. Tomorrow night the Vikings meet Eastern here in the Viks'second conference game for the week-end. Eastern has had a streak of losses but managed to downthe Vikings in their first tangle. Eastern team players to start the ball rolling will be Tritle and Strad* ling, forwards; Graham, center; Roffler and Minnich, guards. Road Journey Disastrous as \ Viks Drop TwoWestern Vikings were tripped twice last week-end by two o f their former conquests, bowing to the St.Martin's Rangers, 66- 56, on Friday night, and to PLC 69-43, Saturday night. Friday night the Rangerspresented a new face to the Viks. Playing on their own court, they did not play the slow-motion typeof ball that was evident here January 19. Taking an early first quarter lead of ZZ-S, they held the Vikingsat bay throughout the entire game. At half-time they led 37-23. When the final whistle blew, theyretired to the dressing room with a 66-56 victory. On Saturday night PLC avenged their previous 57-50defeat. They jumped to an early first quarter lead of 17-14, and held a slight halftime margin of 32-27.Playing on their home floor, PLC avenged the former defeat with a resounding 69- 43 victory. The hostsalso controlled the backboards in all quarters. Bob Stone and Rod Ziebel shared the Viking top-scoringhonors in Friday's game, each potting 12 points.

One resigningperson put the reason for his resignation in these words: "Grades this quarter and grades last quarter."Former Collegian Editor Ken Robertson resigned from his post on the Collegian as well as from theLegislature and the Union Board. He nearly had to resign from all his classes, too. The chief order ofbusiness for the day appeared to be the selection of a Collegian editor for winter and spring quarter.There were three trying for the position, one a former journalist of the Bellingham Herald. He argued for anewspaper format and a strict separation of fact from opinion. His opposition, coming from the twoother candidates, argued that a clean break between these cannot be made, and supported the format of a newsmagazine. Staffers for the Collegian last quarter, Greer and Simpson, a Legislator, were fora co-editorship, while Howard DeWitt, another staff member with ideas of his own, brought in the onlynew idea for the Collegian. It was to save money. This lit do!"?r signs in the eyes of the entireLegislature. DeWitt's idea for the magazine was to have it printed on campus by the IA Department.He planned two. printed here this quarter, and then possibly every issue for next year, if the plan couldbe arranged. His proposition included more color, design and less cost to the tune of $2,500 per year. The Bellingham Herald, on campus to "get the facts" said he "promised" to publish the Collegian oncampus, which DeWitt said was a misinterpretation. He said he promised he would try to have suchdone. A Great Crisis Old editor Robertson expounded on ideas and "My God, the standards," amongother things, and columnist Bob Stevenson said something that must have been equally important. JudyBorman commented to the support of Doug Simpson (Greer, as it WESTERN WASHINGTONCOLLEGIAN turned out, was ineligible) and Publications Advisor, Hansen, said all of the candidateswere well-qualified. All concerned entered with some comment and this put the Legislature into amess that held them back for an hour and a half. Dr. Cederstrom objected to a motion which proposedthe election of editor by secret ballot. At this point Mr. Brown interjected. "Do you know, Dr. Cederstrom, why the elections in the United States of America are always by secret ballot?" The Legislature votedby secret ballot. After another order of business was dealt with and put aside, ASB President BobGustavson announced that congratulations were in order for Howard DeWitt, new Collegian editor. Otherevents at the meeting included the postponement of the selection of a Klipsun editor, to replaceresigning Dennis Wakkuri. The only other significant event at the meeting was the appearance o?President James Jarrett. Though he had planned only to observe the meeting this time, Bob Gustavson asked him if he would care to speak. Gustavson asked Jarrett if he would like to speak. Jarrett askedGustavson if he would like him to speak, and caused Gustavson to pause thoughtfully. It must have been a great crisis. WRITERS ATTENTION If you have ideas you would like to express and wish to write forthe Collegian, attend the meeting Monday evening, February 18, at 7:00 in Room 3 of the VikingUnion. (The Collegian office) There are openings for all types of writers: feature, news, sports andsociety. The Collegian has a new imaginative style of journalism directed at you. So be sure and attendthis important meeting, if you are interested in becoming a part of this growing organization. o Thelast chance for Klipsun portraits will be January 19, 20, 21 in room 6 of the Viking Union. Allappointments have to be made through the downtown office of Jukes Studio, 108 N. Commercial.January 15, 1960 ---------- Collegian - 1960 January 15 - Page 3 ---------- NEW EDITOR NAMED "The Pursestrangs Pulled" By LIZ SUNDSTROM "I believe I can offer you thepresent quality of the newsmagazine, an enlarged staff, some new ideas, and the beginning of anoperation that could make the Collegian an entirely campus-produced publication . . ." wrote Howard DeWitt in a letter of application for the Co'legian editorship, Jan. 6. De Witt's proposals were startling tothe Legislature prepared to select a new editor. Doug Simpson and John Greer, co-applicants andseasoned Collegian writers, told the Legislature they would retain the same format and make only minorpersonnel changes. Jack Sigurdson presented an impressive record with experience as the former editor of the St. Helens Sentinal-Mist, a writer for the Bellingham Herald, and as the news director for KPUG,Bellingham and KBRC, Mount Vernon. He promised that if he were appointed editor, he would returnto a tabloid newspaper format including "departmentalization of news areas and separation of news andopinion." However, De Witt knew the way to the student body's heart was through its skimpypocketbook. "New Idea In An Early Stage" Talking with the old Editor, Ken Robertson, and members ofthe Industrial Arts department, De Witt found that it would be possible to save the student body atleast $2,500 by publishing the paper on campus. He discovered that by working with the Industrial Artsdepartment he could print the paper in four colors on better quality paper and with more art design inthe layout. De Witt stated that the cost of a sixteen-page colored issue would be $75 less than that ofthe regular twelve-page, black-and-white newsmagazine, if bigger presses can be obtained. The Industrial Arts department could cut the cost of publication to $292. De Witt added that he hopes to raise theCollegian's standards of excellence by inviting more 7H English students to write on the staff. Pennies From Heaven The Legislature was overcome. With the student body operating on a deficit budget, the legislators have been strictly observing the proverb, "A penny saved is a penny earned." De Witt's words fell from his tongue like pennies from heaven. The Legislature readily appointed him editor. De Witt, asophomore, has already established a substantial reputation as a journalist. As a senior at Lincoln HighSchool in Seattle, he served in an editorial position on his school paper. He also has experience reporting for two community weeklies and for the Seattle Post-Intelligencer. Winter quarter of last year, he wasawarded the Clarence Soukup Trophy for the most dependable cub reporter. This year, he HOWARDDeWITT "A Lively, Vivid Style" held the position of assistant editor and wrote a weekly sports column.Since former editor Robertson introduced the Collegian's newsmagazine format and invited its writers to be "creative," the publication has aroused much criticism both on and off campus. The Collegian hasbeen called "unoriginally half-baked" and "adolescently sacrilegious." Many have complained that toomuch space has been devoted to the inspired ramblings of Collegian inkslingers and that the news hasbeen ignored. As editor of the Collegian, De Witt promises to make a distinction between fact and fancy, and to undertake more complete news coverage. "Old news is history," says De Witt, "One of my aimswill be to present the current campus picture in a lively, vivid style." VIKING UNION "A One-Act Mystery" People drifting in and out, a table set with coffee and cake, the muted sounds of Johnny Mathis—thiswas the setting for the first Viking Union Board meeting of the quarter. The cast, headed by JackRabourn, was seated around the table, waiting for a rap of the gavel, the cue for the first act to begin.The one act mystery begins with the central theme of "lots of discussion, little decision." Discussed, atgreat lengths, was the request by the A.S.B. legislature that the board take inventory on all A.S.B.owned furnishings in the Viking Union Building. This was tabled until next week because, "No formalaction is required at this time." The next scene of interest, was that prompted by Chairman JackRabourn's remarks to the effect that the apparel being worn to college functions is getting moredistasteful all the time. He felt, and the board agreed, that better dressed students would behave withbetter manners. After proposing and disposing of many suggested solutions to the problem, the boarddropped this matter. They all agreed SOMETHING should be done—but what? Closely corresponding to the above topic was the discussion on the sponsorship of dances, and the cutting down on thenumber of mixers to provide for more varied activities in the VU. This was tabled until the meetingbetween the Union Board and the Student Legislature, which is to take place Saturday. The final sceneof the meeting was one of mystery. Will the Union Board purchase a five year supply of stationery for$60.00? Tune in next week for, "The Union Board Paces Life." WUS Assembly Tuesday, 10 a.m., is thetime set for the World University Service kickoff assembly. "A Light Along The Way" will be shown andBob Gustavson will represent the co-chairmen, Arlene Richens, Roger Hyppa and Ken Haag. Musicalentertainment will be provided by The Legends, Mike Hall's quartet. January 15, 1960 WESTERNWASHINGTON COLLEGIAN Page 3 ---------- Collegian - 1960 January 15 - Page 4 ---------- DEBATE "Teen Agers Compete" The campus was invaded last weekend by more than 200 tense,excited high school students, who showed up on the scene to peddle their wares in the debatedepartment. For the first time, Western's forensics club acted as host to a high school debatetournament and the result was one, long weekend of nervous excitement, explosive performances andsome interesting contests. The Judges Compare Under the direction of Bob and Pat Pike, co-chairmen, and Dr. Herbold, advisor, speech students and miscellaneous bystanders were recruited and scheduled as judges. The signal was given, and the tournament began. Blanchet High School took tophonors in junior division impromptu, oral interpretation and extemporary speaking. While winning schoolsin the impromptu senior, oral interpretation senior, original oratory, extemp senior, oxford junior, oxfordsenior, and Lincoln- Douglas debate were Franklin, Shoreline, South Kitsap, Franklin, Bellingham,Holy Rosary and Federal Way. o Letter Bob Stevenson: I suggest that you learn more of science andscientists before you write another inane article like the one printed in the Christmas issue of theCollegian. One can hardly blame a Fermi for a T.V. dinner anymore than you can blame some hideousbillboard on a Van Gogh. E. Neuzil Assistant Professor of Chemistry Page 4 CHRISTMAS ISSUE ADead Controversy By KAREN BAINTER Arranged in the cubicals on the 1st floor hall of Old Main werethe black and gold-covered Christmas Collegians. They looked innocent enough. Two thousand fivehundred pairs of eyes looked over the newsmagazine, read it, or ignored it. Two thousand five hundredbrains assimilated and formed opinions; or didn't, but formed opinions anyway. Two thousand fivehundred persons got mad or agreed, talked it over, and showed it to other:;. In the Coffee Shop, in OldMain, in the Library, in the classrooms, walking along the campus, everywhere there was opinion.Opinion was off the campus too. KVOS-radio did anews commentary program on the Collegian andthe Christmas issue. Sitting in his office on the main floor of the V.U., Director of Student Affairs, Barney Goltz, gave his views. "For one thing it certainly aroused more discussion than any issue I've ever seen. Parts of it may have been in "bad taste" but I think it is good to have open expression of ideas, and notexpect conformity or even acceptance of popular ideas of college students at all times." Beat Writingand Freedom . . . "There should have been a balancing out," is the opinion of Bill Hoyt of KVOS. He feltthe school was not totally represented by the style of "Beat" writing included in the issue, but he alsofeels that a person has the right to freedom of expression. Finishing a lettuce and tomato sandwich inthe coffee shop, freshman Terry Hunt said, "It made you think. I liked it, but the article about the girlwho didn't believe in Christianity should have been written so it didn't look as if the school wascondemning Christianity." Two other girls sitting with her thought that it was real good — a change.Top-coated, ivy-hatted, M a r s h a ll Bronson was definite. "I thought the cover was nice. The contentswere out of place. A crude attempt to be like Hemingway and Dos Passos written with a lead hand."Rene' Philipart reacted emphatically. "I think it was lousy. I do not say that I can do any better but I amsure that in this college somewhere there are students that are able to write some things that makesense." I/ESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAN Bearded Dr. Flora contemplated, "The appearance wasvery attractive. I thought the contents were very poor, and my own personal bias is that I don't care whatit looks like." Vowing a long time ago not to have anything to do with the Collegian, Mr. Hiller didn't sayanything. Sitting nearby Dr. Cedestrom commented that he had looked at the cover and thought it waspretty but he didn't read it. 'I Thought it Stunk . . .' A girl in the library violently stated. "I thought it stunk!I didn't think it was an appropriate thing to write for Christmas!" "I think it was untimely. I think it lackedfinesse. I think it lacked maturity." This was the opinion of dark-haired legislator, Mike Barnhart. Amember of the staff, Gordon MOs, reflected, "I was sorry to have my name associated with the issue."Hanging Gidgets and Gadaets . . . Also a staff member, Bob Stevenson felt this way, "Christmas ispresumably the birth date of Christ. Therefore, Christmas in this day and age ought to be a churchholiday and not a wild fling of gift giving and receiving, of chopping down a tree and hanging gidgetsand gadgets on it, and Santa Clauses and reindeers. Christmas in America is primarily showing one'ssuccess by the type of gift he can give at Christmas time. Therefore the Collegian, although it hurt thepride of many people, was very appropriate." 'Imaginative, Creative . . .' Lyn Hopkins in a red paisley print was enthusiastic, feeling that it was imaginative and creative. She liked the art work and the idea thatit's possible to express out-of-the-ordinary ideas without getting condemned. Sophomore, WayneHarmon expounded. "I thought it was pretty good. It was different—kind of an interesting sidelighton our society." Having mixed feelings about the issue, Dr. Herbold was a bit bothered by the profanity,while he liked the beatnik poem. He was expecting the tradition and beauty of Christmas in theissue—not cynicism. These are the varying opinions of a few—the " result of a black-and-gold-enclosed^ l6 pages. But no matter what was bad or good about the Christmas edition, there livesafterwards the beginnings of an idea. An idea which may soon enable the Collegian to be publishedat the college itself instead of at the costlier print shops. January 15, 1960 ---------- Collegian - 1960 January 15 - Page 5 ---------- FACULTY SPEAKS With Your Own Ideas The concept of personality, the importance of the individual, the relevance of the machine age, and playing the role of God were just a few ideas conveyed by Dr.Angelo Anastasio in his recent appearance on "The Philosophy of Life" series. "My philosophy of lifeis based upon the concept of the individual and his personality. I can't understand your generation,because I am too busy to take the time. However, what I have observed of your generation, I can seethat there may be a lack of individuality in personality development, and if this could be overcome agreat deal would be gained." "The Role of God" Anastasio orated that instructors played the role of Godby influencing the student in the classroom. "An instructor's ideas are often the guiding light in astudent's philosophy." He also felt that meetings like the present philosophy series are helpful inreaching an understanding between the faculty and students. A student asked Anastasio if he wasguided by his instructors. "I was an 'ornery cuss' and did things almost entirely on my own," saidAnastasio. "We lived in a different world than today's generation, mainly because of the depressionand the Second World War." Dr. Anastasio directed this remark toward Mr. Richard Whittemore, whonodded in agreement. "We had a great deal of maturity for young kids. We had to do things much moreon our own which resulted in early maturation." When asked what he thought of the machine age,Anastasio replied, "There is no use to try to buck the machine age; we created it and we need it." "Inclosing, the thing that I want you to remember is this, myVexperi-ences won't help you, but my ideasmay. You must go out and meet the world with your own ideas if you hope to carve a niche for yourself in society." CHUCK BERTRAND RHODES SCHOLARSHIP Western's Chuck Bertrand and thirteenother candidates from Washington State were interviewed for the Rhodes Scholarship at the WashingtonAthletic Club in Seattle, December 16. Questioned for forty minutes, the candidates were tested ontheir ability to think quickly, and on their grasp of their chosen fields. The Rhodes Scholarship to OxfordUniversity first offered in 1903, has been long coveted by top-ranking United States, British, and Germanscholars. Applicants are selected on the basis of their scholastic ability, character, qualities ofleadership, and interest in athletics. Although Bertrand was not chosen to compete at the districtmeeting in Portland, December 19, he established a "first" on our campus. Never before in the history ofWestern Washington College has the faculty endorsed any student's candidacy for this honor. European History and College Bertrand transferred to Western from the University of Idaho as a freshman. Duringthe last two years, he has not only established a reputation as an honor roll student, but has beenactive in both sports and campus affairs. He turned out for basketball and was a member of the varsitytennis team. This year, he is the score-keeper for the basketball team and participates in intramuralsports. In addition to these activities, Bertrand still finds time to work seven days a week as one of themen in the white jackets in Edens' dining room. He also serves as the Sergeant-at-Arr^s to theBachelor's Club and is the vi ^-president of Highland Hall. Majoring in' European history, Bertrand hopes to receive his master's degree and begin a college teaching career. Dr. Merle S. Kuder, Western'sPersonnel Director, said, "The college sponsored Bertrand for the Rhodes Scholarship only after athorough examination of all his potentialities and qualifications. A faculty committee was satisfied thathe would represent the college admirably, and that he was the kind of young American that would be acredit to his country and would profit from experience at Oxford." THE WRITER Cash Prizes Will BeAwarded Winners The Writer, WWC creative writing magazine, is now accepting student manuscripts for consideration for the Winter-Spring edition. Manuscripts may fall in the following categories: shortstory, poetry, essay, play, or excerpts from novels-in-progress. We are interested in works of anylength, however, the quality must justify the length. There are no taboos, as such, the main criterionbeing artistic integrity. We are not interested in the deliberately obscene or obscure. Students maysubmit as many manuscripts as desired. Manuscripts should be double-spaced and typed on oneside of the page only. The author's name should appear on the first page of his work. Manuscripts shouldbe placed in manila envelopes or otherwise securely fastened. Unused material will be returned tothe author. While there is no payment for publication, cash prizes will be awarded for the best shortstory, poem and essay. Manuscripts should be turned in at the Minor Publications office, Room 1 in the SUB.

Plain ordinary type green grass. Then there were surveyors and ideamen, tapes, pencils and blueprints. And the grass gave way to great machines—it was rolled up like acarpet and carted away. The hum of machinery and the roar of explosions became a part of thestudent's day as the excavation proceeded and soon they were laying a foundation for this,Western's two and a half million dollar edifice. This year the building is completing its metamorphosis.Gradually emerging from its skeletinal appearance, its spine of wood, steel and stone, the building isalready completed in the eyes of many of the science department's faculty. To them this building is adream in the last stage . . . a dream about to be realized. New worlds will be revealed to sciencestudents as the obscuring veil of poor equipment and inadequate space is drawn aside next year whenthe doors of the Haggard Hall of Science swing open. The student will be offered a whole new curriculum in the sciences. In the thirty main laboratorys workers will experiment in nuclear physics, electronics,chemistry, physiology, and geology. The greenhouses, located on the roof, will tell the tale about plantlife, and from the planetarium students can star-gaze to their hearts' content. Live animals will prowltheir cages while student biologists determine their fate, a seismograph, to record earth shocks, andother weather instruments will be installed. With the addition of new science technicians, studentswill even construct some of their own lab equipment. As to the comment that the present facilities areentirely inadequate, Dr. Knapman, professor of chemistry, calls this "the understatement of thecentury." He went on to claim the new building as the "best college physical science plant on thenorthwest coast." To Dr. Knapman, as to all the others on Western's staff, a dream is becoming anactuality as Haggard Hall emerges from its cocoon. By BOB STEVENSON When the whirling, myriad-colored leaves once again alight softly on the damp grass and blacktop walks, a huge building will beadmitting students into its numerous classrooms and labs. Presently it is rising from the mud, a half-completed shell consisting of dull gray slabs of concrete and large panes of dirty glass. As this great"Cyclops" rises from the mud, and hovers over the thousands who pass it every day, not many of themrealize how subservient they are becoming to science. Most students don't realize the underlyingsignificance of this huge plant, because they have been conditioned by the trend in our nation today of worshipping the one-eyed monster, science. The student doesn't think about this structure because allacross this nation there is the underlying trend, or perhaps fear, which tells him to support it. Ourleaders, panicked by our rivals, have placed a high premium on science and technology. Thegovernment passed a bill for federal aid to education which was justified as a defense need. Its primary!purpose is to extend aid in fields rev lated to national security which in-eludes, in this order, science,math and modern foreign languages (as they relate to national security). A sum of sixty-one million,six hundred thousand dollars was spent in 1958 just for improving the teaching of these courses. They have succeeded in overemphasizing science and in diminishing the value of humanities to a pointwh'.ra the idea of the cultured man is pushed almost out of existence. This structure which costs in theneighborhood of two - and - one - half million dollars, and takes up untold amounts of space, is dedicatedto science. Think about this for a time if you will; ask yourself if science is being overemphasized inthe world, in our country and even on our campus. In a world, and a nation for that matter, in which the scientist is as highly valued as our own, we must guard ourselves against over-technicalization. Wemust guard against it and strive for a balance between science and humanities before we becomebarbaric. When you once again walk ankle-deep through the bright splashy-colored leaves, a sciencebuilding will be dedicated. This writer tends to think that Thomas Jefferson's remark was more thancasual speculation when he said that, "The other planets use this one as a lunatic asylum."

You get an extra hour's sleep every 24 hours, but if you go east you lose an hour's sleep."Leaning back in his chair as he sat in his office, gray suited Howard Critchfield, Professor of Geography,talked intensely about the trip from which he and his family had just returned. Glancing occasionally atthe map of the world on the wall, Critchfield told of his 9 month trip around the world. Three months werespent in actual travel while he spent the other 6 months as visiting lecturer on climatology at theUniversity of Christ-church, New Zealand. He had the same visiting lecturer position 10 years previously and felt very honored to be invited back. His trip which included such places as New Zealand, Australia, Indonesia, Singapore, Columbia, Ceylon, Egypt, Italy, Switzerland, Western Germany, Holland,Belgium, and England, gave him some ideas and information which he feels will be useful in teaching."Complaints the World Over" While visiting various universities, Critchfield was able to comparefacilities and approach with teachers elsewhere in the world. In talking to the various professors andteachers, he found that all around the world they complain about salaries, parking problems, studentsnot caring enough, buildings being too small or classes being too large, and even of mud because of construction. Although he felt the language barrier wasn't quite as great as is usually imagined,Critchfield stated, "It's embarrassing for Americans to go to other countries and find people speakingEnglish and you can't speak their language." He told of the taxi driver who took them 100 miles inland inJava and could only say . "dollars" in English. He told also of their visit to Miss Nona Glazer, who taughtin Western's Sociology Department, and is now a student at the London School of Economics.Critchfield was impressed by the country side in Java, the modern Europeaness of Singapore, and thenice weather in Prance. "The amazing economic growth in Australia is perhaps one of the mostoutstanding things encountered," he stated. He termed it a "boom country" with immigration into it andrapid industrial growth making it like the United States at the turn of the century. "Basically,"Critchfield summarized, "people are much the same the world over. There's nothing very original aboutthat statement but it's true just the same." / / ALUMNI ENGAGEDl l The engagement of Miss June KayKellogg is announced by her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Robert W.

With victories over highly-rated Whitworth and Eastern Washington, the Viksare moving into high gear in preparation for the big ones this weekend, with Seattle Pacific on Friday, and PLC on Saturday. The round-ballers should have no trouble downing Seattle Pacific, even though theyplay on the Falcons' home floor. The Viks are going to have their "'-• hands full when they take on PLC, however. The Gladiators haven't dropped a decision to a league opponent in forty-eight games, and lastyear they were NAIA runners-up for the national championship. The Lutes have beat every other team inthe league by a substantial margin, but they are playing on the Viks' home floor where they have alwayshad trouble squeezing out a victory1. With a much improved bench, which includes rebounding TerryClayton, dead-eye Ron Saltis (he hit six for six and eleven points this weekend), and hustling DermCunningham, all backing up the starting five, the Vikings should out-hustle, out-rebound, and out-gun PLC for a high scoring 90-89 victory. ''Long Jim and Big Ron" Big Ron (the boys call him "Juggs") Croweturned in a terrific offensive performance over the week-end, banging in 54 points in two nights for a 27point-per-game average. Another high average man is Jim Greer, who throws an average of six head-of-the-key shots. Long Jim is no slouch when it comes to scoring either. He had 30 points for the week-end. Rugby makes its 1960 appearance tomorrow as Western meets the Vancouver Chargers in a game thatshould see the Viks off to another great season. Coach Joe Davis has nearly every member of last year'sundefeated squad ready for Saturday's opener. With Little All-American football players Jack Sim andEd Melbourne holding up the scrum, and Ron Ladines in the three line, the rugger boys look like solidfavorites. The score: Western 10, Vancouver Chargers, 0. As a note of interest, rugby is an internationalgame played all over the world mainly in countries that are, or once were, members of the BritishCommonwealth. It is rapidly gaining popularity in the U.S. and is played by such schools as Stanford,U.C.L.A., Southern Cal., and California. There are reports that Eastern Washington College may bestarting a team. Joe Davies, the husky coach of the Viks, has been trying to procure games with theCalifornia teams, in hopes that a yearly round-robin may be set up. The games could be played duringspring vacation. Thus far ntohing has been arranged. * * * # Last week, Western's championship swimteam defeated Eastern Washington in a one sided victory, by a score of 53-40.

STATE STREET LAUNDROMAT Up To 9 x 12 Shag Rugs Washing, M gt; HourWashing and Drying Wi Hour Next to YMCA Phone REgent 4-1650 ---------- Collegian - 1960 January 15 - Page 12 ---------- BASKETBALL Heroes Off the Bench By TONY WHITEFIELD Western Washington's V i k i n gsnotched two more wins last weekend over Evergreen Conference foes from east of the Cascades. Fridaynight the Vikings stopped the Whitworth Pirates' fast-break attack in the second half, coming frombehind to thump the Pirates, 71-64. Saturday night, Western overcame periodic slumps and finished fastto tumble the Eastern Washington Savages, 73-59. These victories were two that WWC needed intheir initial step toward the quest of the conference title. The Vikings lost to CPS earlier in the week, fortheir only conference setback. "New Heroes Are Produced" More important than the pleasing brand ofViking basketball being played is the fact that Western not only has a strong starting five, but also astrong reserve seven. Each game produced a new hero—a reserve who came off the bench and gotthose two points when it counted, who made that good pass, or grabbed that ever important rebound.Big Terry Clayton's play as a reserve on Friday night earned him a starting role for Saturday night'sencounter, when all the reserves played extremely well. But perhaps most noticeable was RonSaltis, who came off the bench late in the fourth quarter and dumped in eleven points to break up whatwas becoming a tight game. "A Bright Bloch" Bud Bloch's work was still another bright spot, as washustling Dermot Cunningham with his patented brand of ball-hawking. Incidentally, Coach Hubbard might have trouble picking his starters if these reserves continue to shine—again the mark of a good team.The starting Viking five, in all due respect to other Evergreen teams, must be regarded as one that will be hard to defense. Paoe 12 RUGBY Mogambo Leads the Pack By NIGEL ADAMS With the openingday of rugby season only one day away, Coach Joe Davies feels his squad is ready for Saturday'sopponent, the Vancouver Chargers. Coach Davies then took time out from practice to let this writer in onsome of the experiences of the early turnouts, just as the team came running by and almost stompedus into the ground. The Viking ruggers have an eight game schedule, five of them at home. Tentativepost season games include one with Victoria. This, however, is not definite. Prior to this season'sopener, rumors of a California series began to circulate. A complete report on this by Davies informsus that although he is working on it, no games have been scheduled. Blood, Guts, and Fifteen Men Theteam is lead very aptly this year by two big boys who have achieved small college honors by beingelected to the Little All-American Football Team. The players are Jack Sim (6'2"~ 220 lbs) and Ed"Mogambo" Melborne (6'3"-260 lbs.) Besides Sim and Melborne, Davies has all but two of last year'sundefeated team back. "Rugby Still in Infancy" As far as rugby is concerned on Western's Campus, here is a brief history. It was started three years ago by Davies in co-operation with the PhysicalEducation Department, and was to be mainly an aid in body development for football conditioning. Ithas grown in size, from a spectator viewpoint, to crowds of up to 600 or more people. Game time is2:00 p.m.; the place is the football field behind the gymnasium. Spectators are welcome and the onlyequipment necessary is a strong voice. As an after thought Davies mentioned that the best conditioner for rugby is running, and states that at least twice a week the boys run to the top of Sehoroe Hill, adistance of two miles.

Kuder, director of student personnel services. Dr. Kuder points out that every student has theopportunity to choose for himself the status he wants, providing he is eligible. In connection witheligibility, a student's college record has a major control over whether or not he is inductedimmediately. Eligible for deferment are those students who have completed one full year in a college oruniversity, are in the upper half of the class, and have advised the local draft board of intentions ofenrolling in college before August 1, 1950. Temporary postponement of induction may be secured byindividuals not meeting all of the above standards. HOW TO GET POSTPONEMENT If a student does not meet the requirements for deferment, he must, prove to the local board that he is satisfactorilypursuing a full-time course of instruction. The student then may have his induction postponed until theend of the academic year or until he ceases to pursue his course of instruction, whichever occurs earlier. A student with a postponement will be inducted at the end of'the academic year, while a student with adeferment may be eligible to complete his entire education as long as he stays within the upper half of his class scholastically. The deferment may be cancelled at any time in which the student's gradeaverage falls below the 50 per cent line. The college has no authority to make deferments orpostponements, says Dr. Kuder, but the registrar's office is prepared to issue the neces- s t a ^ Je n A rt h u r a nd sary statements to be presented to C o o p e r j ( lt;Mr gt; D e e d s „ fa n aU_t I meCampus Club Carnival Thursday COLLEGIAN NATIONAL NEWSPAPER WEEK, OCTOBER 1-8.—"Americans must always be wary of any attempt to infringe on the freedom of comment andconstructive criticism long associated with our nation's newspapers lest these newspapers be degraded to the level now common in totalitarian states'*—Gov. Arthur B. Langlie. Western Washington College,Bellingham, Wash. October 6, 1950 The traditional tall celebration of Homecoming is on its way, asevidenced this week by the selection of Homecoming co-chairmen. L e i la Brown, sophomore, andBud Hill, senior, have been named by the board of control as general chairmen of the event, whichoccurs over the November 3-4 weekend. Skit assemblies, a queen's ball, display contests, and a football game are the enjoyable events around which the celebration centers. Western has drawn EasternWashington, always a tough team to beat, as its homecoming opponent this year. Board Okays TVSet, Fill Vacant Posts By ROD CARD WELL Three-hundred and fifty dollars worth of television set willprobably be acquired by Western Washington college. The Board of Control Thursday afternoon voted forpurchase of a televisor with a sum from the lounge fund. The weekly meeting also saw appointment oftwo new mem-* bers and election of the Home 'Mr. Deeds' First of Sunday Shows "Mr. Deeds Goes toTown" will be the first Sunday movie to be shown this year on the student-sponsored program. It isscheduled to be shown at six and eight p.m. this Sunday night in the college auditorium. the draft board. MAKE APPLICATIONS EARLY Dr. Kuder advises all students to make their application for deferment or postponement before they receive a notice for physical examination. At the present time, nophysical examination will be required of students who have either a deferment or a postponement.Assistant registrar William O'Neil will assist men in determining their academic standing and in preparing statements for the draft board. All such statements must, however, be delivered to the board by thestudent. Assemblies Thursday at 12:20 p. m, and 1:20 p. m. in the auditorium were held to explain the current jiraft regulations and answer questions. HICKENBOTTOM, HASH AT JUNIOR CHAMBERDINNER Eddie Hickenbottom, ASB president, and Norm Hash were guests of Ray Hyatt, swimmingcoach, at the monthly banquet of the Bellingham Junior Chamber of Commerce, Wednesday eveningat Club 90. Coach Hyatt is a former Jaycee president. Hickenbottom invited all Jaycees to attend theCollege of Puget Sound-WWO game tomorrow night. favorite comedy and winner of an academy award. Admission is 25 cents. Only students, faculty members and their spouses will be admitted. [Admission by Ticket Only Strict enforcement of regulations concerning admission to football gamesand other events is promised by Herbert R. Hear-sey, faculty chairman of the Athletic committee.Hearsey points out that admission to football games is by student body ticket or tickets from thebox office. "Do not," he asks, embarrass the gate keeper by requesting an admission on a personalrecognition basis." Students are also warned against loaning or transferring activity tickets. Gatekeepers will be on the watch to pick up student body tickets not in the possession of their owners.These will be turned over to the Board of Control. All activity tickets, Hearsey reminds, must be signedby the owner. coming chairmen. Norm Hash reported that the nearby location of the KVOS television cable would enable installation of a set with a minimum of expense. A trained student has alsovolunteered to hook the Western outlet onto the cable, Hash added. When the lounge is moved intoits new quarters, the outlet will still be close, if not closer, to the main cable, board members were told.The proposed television set is to haVe a 16-inch screen. Named to the board as replacements forvacated seats were Lois French and Carol Irwin. The new members will be seated next Wednesday.HOMECOMING HEADS NAMED The Board's lengthy session, nearly two hours, wound up with thenaming of Leila Brown and Bud Hill as co-chairmen for the Homecoming committee. Alternates areEugenia Puckett and Jim McHeffey. Other appointments included Anne Griffiths, named secretary ofthe Board of Control, and Cecil Thomas and Shirley McMicken, selected for co-editorship of the "Profile," student directory. Difficulties to be met with in the location of a neon sign illuminating the name of thecollege at the Garden street—Highway 99 intersection were related by Dave Grocott and JuneCarrick. The city's Board of Public Works must okeh the proposed site, Grocott said, and there isindication that that body may veto the request. Plans call for placing the sign adjacent to an apartment house. Grocott, however, will submit a request for the location to city officials Monday. With only theword "college" illuminated, board members were told, the neon sign would probably cost $400. Theprice was quoted by a local firm. Its manager said, however, that in meeting a bid the firm wouldprobably quote a reduction. REFUSE FUNDS A request for $42 by the Chess club was turned downon grounds that the organization should first attempt to earn funds by presenting a student function:Chess club president Morris Anderson was 'told the board would probably match the earnings of hisgroup. The club sought the allotment for purchase of new chess sets to serve an expandingmembership. The Student Lounge, according to Board action, will be used for night functions by thefollowing organizations: Education Forum, October 9, and every Monday thereafter; Senior class,October 11 and 18; Inter-club carnival, October 12; Junior class (for mixer),) October 13. Facing asharp decrease per quarter allotment, the Board moved that groups should personally foot laborexpenses when using the lounge. Members felt, however, that the Board action should not apply to theJnterclub carnival. A popcorn machine will be given a trial run in the lounge, members decided. If afterthree weeks the machine proves popular and practicable, it will be retained. Entertainment, Eats Help Introduce Western Club Life Freshmen and all new students who are interested in clubs andorganizations on the campus are invited to the Interclub Carnival at 7:30 p. m., Thursday, October12. Amusements and refreshments are provided free of charge, say the carnival planners. Starting theevents of the evening will be the Thespian club assembly from 7:30 to 8 in the main auditorium. Thiswill be followed by three 15-minute sessions in the various club rooms. At these sessions, membersof the clubs will explain their activities. Refreshments will be served in the lounge at 9.

Hours for freshmen girls will be extendedto 9:45 for the evening. Most of the active campus clubs (Continued on Page 7) Today Is Last Day'Says Klipsun Editor A warning to all students, freshmen as well as upperclassmen, that today is thelast day appointments may be made to have individual pictures taken for the Klipsun, was issued thisweek by Joyce Gillie, Klipsun editor. "We realize that spring quarter is still quite far in the future, but ifyou get your picture taken now you will not be disappointed when the Klipsun comes out in the spring,"said Mrs. Gillie. The place to make picture appointments is in the Klipsun office, room 208.Appointments wHl be made until 4 p. m. "Crossfire In Europe" To Be Subject at Friday Assembly CecilBrown, t h e - distinguished Mutual Broadcasting System commentator, will speak in person hereFriday morning, October 13. His CECIL BROWN subject will be "Crossfire In Europe." Brown, who hasgained fame and the top awards in radio for his keen analysis of world events during the past decade,put his wide experience to use in the winter of 1949- 50, when he traveled through Western Europe,recording for his large American audience the reactions of people in high and low places to currentissues. He visited France, England, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Yugoslaviaand Israel, reporting that if America wants results from aiding Europe, it will not find it in expressions ofgratitude. Instead it is found "in the concrete fact that it stopped the western tide of Communism. Andafter you've seen what Communist control does to a people, how it makes people outright slaves,stopping that tide is something to be grateful for," he adds. Brown is the author of the wartime best-seller, "Suez to Singapore." In addition, he has contributed to Colliers, Reader's Digest and othermagazines. ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1950 October 6 - Page 2 ---------- I Two Sudden Changes The year of reversals—that's what 1950 means in the fives of two men whoseactivities have had world-wide attention during the few years since the end of World War II. Adisillusioned Henry Wallace left his Progressive party after the outbreak of the Korean hostilities anddenounced the Soviet leaders for being insincere in their peaceful declarations. Garry Davis, the warveteran who gave up his American citizenship in order to become a citizen of the world, appealed thisweek for restoration of his American,citizenship. These two men had much in common. At least theyshared the idealists' hope that out of the chaos of World War II would emerge a lasting, prosperouspeace. We cannot help but feel a certain degree of admiration for Henry Wallace. It was a sincere, ifgullible, soul that fell for the Soviet bait. It took courage to retain his unpopular stand as long as he did. Itrequired courage to admit his errors publicly. Today he finds himself in the unenviable position ofbeing rebuked by his own countrymen and condemned by the Soviet press as an "enemy of humanity/7 a "Truman lackey." As for Davis, perhaps it is discouraging to be centuries ahead of one's contemporaries. Yet it did noti discourage the first world citizen 19 centuries ago. The Freedom Scroll will be on campus for only a few more days. Those who have not yet signed it are urged to do so now. This is everyone'schance to make his voice heard throughout the world in a demonstration of freedom. Night Life SuffersAs Louis Meets His Television Waterloo By ROD CARD WELL Bellingham City Center, a Few NightsAgo —There's a Lion in the Local Streets, a sidewalk demon capturing a city's fancy with elusive lightrays. It's the apparatus of television. Spectators seem pinned to the spot as they eye the televisormodeled by a well-known dealer. But the gathering mob is a quiet one. There's little possibility thatloiterers will be routed by the law. In fact a uniformed policeman is among the hangers-on. Also truckdrivers, a street cleaner, school-age children, a woman who might be a secretary, a man who might bea banker. Then the screen is cleared for action. Three-thousand miles away a balding Joe Louis lifts hisgloves against Ezzard Charles. And the exchange of blows is televised for 14 furious rounds. In themiddle of the 15th round a splutter of static is heard. The fighters fade from the screen. Only a lifelesssquare of opaque glass is seen. A tube's failed, advises an initiated member of the crowd. Bellingham'stelevisional night life is apparently over. A wave of disgust breaks over the scene. But worse than all the blasphemy falling upon the pavement are the startling words of one onlooker: "Ya know what I'm gonnado?" a man fumes. "I'm gonna go home and turn; on my radio." * * * In the magazine publishing world asingle word has been set aside to identify a certain group of journals, which the critics tell us are readthrough spectacles balanced on the better noses. Although they're popular, that's not the word. And thepaper on which these magazines are printed may in some instances be smooth—but they don't belongto the smooth-paper class. The word, the proper, acceptable word of the trade, is quality. Two of thebetter known members' of this division are "Harper's and one with a doubtful method of displaying itstitle. In fact we were led into the column's current topic by a desire to acquaint our readers with thislatter1 magazine's confusing system of naming itself. We doubt that the confusion would bewidespread, but among college students, at least, the magazine is well-known. Three variations of itsname greet the reader when he first examines the magazine. These are as follows: On the end of the)binding, "Atlantic Monthly"; on the front cover, "The Atlantic"; on the title page, "Atlantic" . . . We're notattempting here to devalue the magazine. Whatever it wishes to call itself, the journal prints qualitymaterial. But considering this monopoly of three names, we feel that quality is the wrong word. Itshould be quantity. 'BILE' IS A GOOD NAME FOR IT After Significant Start, Day Can Produce AnythingHere By LEO DELANO My foot slipped, I clawed wildly at the air, and with a dramatic scream ofanguish, I descended the 130 steps of the Travelers' Hot and Cold Water Hotel. Upon landing, a few soulshattering bumps later (needless to say that my decorum was shaken), I realized that my day had gotten off to a significant start.^ A group of curiosity seekers with lunch buckets tucked under their arms hadgathered about to watch me collect my wits, some of which had rolled into the gutter. The rest I wiped off and slipped into my pocket. The provincials threw questioning glances in my direction. Comingnaturally by a volatile nature I threw a few back in return. They went about their business. it, * * Twodays ago I registered for my courses in "Pen Bladder Repairing," drew some fine volumes, heavy withknowledge, then went to attend the assembly. "Assembly" is the slang term used for "Morons enmasse." At this ritual, several enthusiastic male thespians presented a drama, the moral of which I'mstill trying to fathom. I do remember that it d r e w "cat-calls," and obscene laughter from the balcony.After that, two girls and a boy took the stage. It was later retrieved from South Bellingham, where twowayward schoolboys were found using it for the back of a handball court. But, really, I jest. The threeyoung people engaged themselves in a heart stirring victory cry. Then the entire audience arose inunison and answered their call. I felt a hot welling of pride and belonging. Then, helpless to suppress theflood of emotion, I wept unashamedly. Truly, now I was a part of this august assemblage. Proud, proud,proud . . .1 filled my lungs to the bursting point with pure scholastic air, and shouted as loud as possible, my falsetto splitting the low murmur of the auditorium. "Give 'em the ax, give 'em the ax, give 'em theax, where—?" I didn't finish. All was silent . . . A watch could be heard ticking on the other side of theauditorium . . . I knew people were staring . . . A freshman in front of me turned slowly and broke hischair over my head. What have I let myself in for? This getting up at 6:30 every morn, then poring overmy Pen Bladder Repair books for an hour or so each evening. This morning an evil feeling possessedme as I drove onto the sidewalk, and casually ran down several small children enroute to the Campusschool. "Little hellion," I chuckled to myself in the rear view mirror. This literary masterpiece isbeginning to wander. So shall I until next week. Freedom Bell, Symbol Of Crusade For FreedomFREEDOM Bell, symbol of CRUSADE FOR FREEDOM, cast in solid bronze, weighs 10 tons, standsnine feet high, measures 98 inches in diameter. In bas-relief, five figures represent the major races ofman. On Oct. 24, United Nations Day, Freedom Bell will be installed behind the Iron Curtain in theWestern Sector of Berlin, and will peal out daily thereafter the message of freedom to the world.Enshrined m its base will be signatures of millions •of Americans who have signed the Declaration ofFreedom. Scrolls for the Crusade for Freedom will be turned in next week and flown directly to Berlin,Dr. W. W. Haggard announces. WW,C students may still enlist in the Crusade by making, theircontributions in the co-op. Mailbag: Letters to the Editor (The Collegian welcomes letters on all topics of general interest. No anonymous letters will be used, but names will be withheld on request. TheCollegian is not responsible for opinions expressed.) Editor, The Collegian, Dear Sir: I see that you have made a big play for the so-called Crusade for Freedom. I have some questions that you might askyourself before doing this. 1. The communists charge that the Radio Free Europe is the voice of WallStreet, not of the American people. How do we know that it is not? It has been financed up to now byprivate capital. Why are we not allowed to inspect some t y p i c al scripts of the broadcasts beforebeing asked to contribute? The sponsors boast that their Radio is a private organization and notsubject to the government control. This implies that it will be superior to and more truthful than thegovernment's Voice of America. As far as I can see they both have similar purposes. What shouldhappen if their statements conflict or disagree? What are the people in Europe supposed to believethen? Is not our government, qualified to speak to the peoples of the world as the voice of our p e op l e ? If not, the government should dissolve itself . . . Until questions like these are answered Icannot contribute my dime to the cause. Crusades are always bloody affairs. And history shows that the crusaders had ulterior and greedy motives for their so-called holy crusades.

The Questioner(Editor's note: We are sure that our readers will not let these questions about a worthy cause gounanswered.) By EDDIE HICKENBOTTOM President, Associated Students Elsewhere in theCollegian is a notice from Mr. Earle, manager of the Student co-op and lounge, stating that the lounge isavailable for evening use by clubs and organizations. It should be brought to the atention of a llstudents that if an organization wants the use of the lounge it must make application to the Board ofControl on Wed-nesda3?-, at least a week before the desired evening. This is quite necessary, forthe r u le exists that if the lounge is opened for evening use at least one employee of the lounge mustbe present at all times. This condition, of course, entails a problem of money. These people are paid fortheir services, and on the average, it will require three hours work. In the past it has also been thepractice of some organizations to furnish free refreshments to their members. The problem is this: Canthe lounge and the Associated students afford to pay $5 a night for such a practice? This next week,alone, we have granted the lounge for three nights. The solution, it seems to me, is to at least require the clubs to pay for their refreshments through their treasuries. Also they should help defer the cost of hiringthe employees. Many of the employees are members of organizations that meet in the lounge. If theydesire to furnish their labor "free gratis" in behalf of the organization, then the only problem would be tohave the members pay for their refreshments. We all know that the lounge is probably the best placefor a meeting. But I think it should be pointed out that in the near future clubs and organizations willprobably be required to help defer the cost of operation. • • * * * Progress report of the televisionset: We are quite confident that the set may be in the lounge for this Saturday's UCLA-Washingtongame. We are anxiously awaiting the arrival of enough co-axial cable to hook up. It would be advisable tobring a dime along as a 10 cent admission may be charged to help finance the set.

Cummins of the politicalscience department returned last. Thursday from a tour of Europe which took her through Great Britain, Scandinavia, Germany, Prance, Switzerland, and Italy. Foremost among the many impressions shebrought back was that the western Europeans seem to look for the United States to take the lead in theroad to world peace. "As a-Jwhole, the good American newspapers and their reporters are doing anexceptionally fine job of relaying the feelings and opinions of the European people," she said. In England, Miss Cummins found many evidences of the recent war although the English people have been workingfive years to clear | away bombing damage. Miss Cummins found Sweden a country indicative of whatEurope might be today had it not been subjected to two wars in the last 40 years. Stockholm, she said,was very modern and clean, retaining much of its pre-war elegance. However, she reported, theSwedish people, and all northern Europeans, are very frightened of Russia. "The cities of Germany are in ruins, but the people do not seem to blame the Americans specifically." she stated. "The Germansaccept the occupying forces as a result of war, but they dislike the civilians." She found in Germany awill to work, a desire to rebuild the country. One of her memorable experiences in Switzerland was riding a tow-chair at a mountain resort. She observed that the Swiss were very conscious of the world aboutthem, the general opinion being that Switzerland could not remain neut-iral in the event of another war.MISS ANNA ULLIN MANY CHANGES IN EVIDENCE SINCE ULLIN'S LAST VOYAGE MISS NORA B.CUMMINS EUROPEANS LOOK TO U. S. IN PEACE HOPE, SAYS CUMMINS Miss Cumminsattended the International Conference on Historic Science in Paris, August 28-September 3. ArnoldToynbee, the historian, presided at the conference. After visiting the romantic cities of Italy and attending one of the Pope's personal appearances at St. Paul's cathedral in Rome, she sailed for America fromNaples, convinced that America is regarded as the guardian of world peace. By JACKIE BLASERMiss Anna Ullin, foreign languages instructor, has recently returned to the campus after a threemonth's trip to Europe. Europe was nothing new to Miss Ullin, who was making her seventh trip abroad.However, her last voyage was in 1938, and the European scene has changed to a great extent since that time. London showed the greatest effects of the war, she said, but the city has been cleaned upconsiderably. While in London Miss Ullin saw several plays and also saw Jack Benny and FrankSinatra at the Palladium. Most things in London are still rationed and many of them are almostimpossible to obtain without a special visitor's permit, she added. In Paris Miss UUin spent more than a month sightseeing and shopping. She saw many places of interest, such as the Arch de Triumph and the Notre Dame cathedral. She was impressed by the spectacular lighting effects of the cathedralwhich reflect on the River Seine. Paris, she found, was quite different from London. Food is plentifulalthough prices are higher than in London. 'I found Paris quite a prosperous city and nearly recoveredfrom the effects of the war," she reported. Miss Ullin visited many friends in Paris whom she knew whenshe studied at the Sorbonne. She also met Miss Cummins and several friends from Paris touring Paris.From Paris she went to Barcelona for a week, then to Nice and Monte Carlo on the Mediterranean. Afterreturning to Paris, she came back to America on the French liner, Liberty. Alumni Meetings to Be HeldNext Week In Washington Meetings with alumni groups are scheduled during this week for Pres- %ident W. W. Haggard and other faculty members. Dr. Haggard is in Wenatchee today speaking to analumni group. Thursday he spoke at Yakima. The alumni in Tacoma will be visited Tuesday, October 10,by E. J. Arntzen and E. A. Bond. Arntzen and Dr. Alan Ross will speak to the Seattle group next Friday, October 13. A second trip for Dr. Haggard will take him to Centralia where he will speak October 11.Dr. Ross will be in Bremerton the following day. New Program For Rec Hour Western's recreationprogram is now more attractive than ever before, with opening of the pool on recreation night,according to Sam Carver, director of intramural sports. The program consists of dancing in the formerjunior high gym; badminton and volleyball playing in the main gym; and swimming in the pool.Thursday night is the only week night that freshman girls may stay out late, and it also provides all other students with a pleasant midweek break from their studies, Mr. Carver reminded. 'Western Story1Told Friday Highlighting last Friday morning's assembly was a short, hilarious skit titled, "The Western Story." Preceding the skit was a quiz program that also drew wide attention. "The Western Story,"was enacted by the following cast: Narrator, Nick Alexander; Trapper, Bud Hill; Lucy, Milt Clothier; DanMcGrew, Clyde Hobbs; and Bar Drinkers, Bob Murphy and Hahk Rogers. Piano accompanist wasRoger Knoop, with Clarence Rohr and Chuck Lindberg handling the props. Nick Alexander was also theemcee for the quiz program, with the same prop men assisting him. Immediately following the skit Harry Pagels, ASB vice president, announced the proceedings for the football team sendoff on Saturday.Tuesday Last Day For Course Change Deadline for entering a new course is next Tuesday, according toRegistrar Donald Ferris. Courses may be dropped, with a W, or withdrawal given, until the fourth weekof a quarter. The registrar stresses the fact that all changes must be official. Otherwise students mayreceive a failing grade in a course which they were supposed to attend, and no grade for the course theydid attend. Jackson Addresses Young Democrats By GEORGE DOWD Many college students werepresent to hear Congressman Henry M. Jackson when he addressed a regular meeting of theWhatcom County Young Democratic club Tuesday evening at Democratic headquarters in the MountBaker Theater building. Jackson lashed out at what he termed, "Conservative attacks on respectableliberal leaders." The congressman declared that this campaign would see all types of smeartechniques used by the opposition in their attempts to gain a majority in the 82nd congress. YoungDemocrats passed two controversial resolutions unanimously: condemnation of welfare initiatives 176and 178; and reconsideration of the recently-passed anti-subversive bill. The latter resolution stated thatthe anti-subversive legislation was drawn in haste and that because it was drawn without properconsiderations to the consequences, the bill would actually weaken internal security in the UnitedStates. Students at the college are being recruited into the county Young Democratic organization andare being invited to attend next Tuesday night's meeting at the headquarters at 7:30 p. m.

Yes, we did defeat the Whitworth Pirates lastweek and Lappy isn't too disappointed over the outcome. The defensive team played the kind of ball thatany coach would be proud, of anytime. It rushed the center and rattled the T-quarterback. And the wayBig Art Larsson charged the center was something to see! To converge on the center is Lappy's way ofbreaking up the T, and he did just that. Kretz couldn't even get set to pass, let along run with the ball orhand it off to anyone. The offensive action clicked well. This is an outfit that will get better as the yeargoes along. Tommy Taylor is doing a. good job in the signal-calling department and Al "Swivel-Hips"Schireman is running well. They seem to be in better shape than at any .time in the past. At an interviewthis week Lappy came up with these answers: Question: What do you think of your defensive team afterholding Whitworth to nine yards on the ground? Answer: I have the utmost confidence in the "D" teamand CPS will have a hard time scoring against it. Q: What does CPS have in the way of offense? A: Theteam is fast, and I can't say they're green. They have an end from Portland U. named Retallick, and HE isa good boy. They also have a big team up front. Q: What sort of defense does the CPS crew have? A:They are big and fast but we are not afraid of them. They must be able to move as well. Q: Have theyscouted you much this year? A: It would be foolish to say they haven't. On the other hand it will do themno good. We don't know what we are going to do either. We must know first what they are going to do and set our defense accordingly. Because our defense is based on flexible, progressive adjustment of theindividual on defense to the specific offensive maneuvers) of the individual and team actions of theopponents. I am-therefore convinced that the individual on defense can use HIS head much moreadvantageously than he can use the head of the coaches or the heads of the local barber shop quarter. THEIR judgment is based on history accumulated from facts, figures and statistics. History is not always basic.in strategy. Time and area are also of major importance. Therefore you can see why I amconcerned for the security of my defensive members. CPS will use an off-tackle play and passes over thecenter, so I must have Tiland in there to stop them. He hurt his arm last week and may not be up to par.He is charging and tackling like an all-conference center again this year, and we can't afford to lose him.Incidentally, he was deferred until next year. In Princeton, New Jersey, there is always a friendlygathering of Princeton students at the Campus Center. And as in university campus hauntseverywhere, ice-cold Coca-Cola helps make these get-togethers something to remember. As arefreshing pause from the irttrdy grind, or when the gang gathers around—Coke belongs. Ask for iteither way ... both trade-marks mean the same thing.

The squad fared pretty well in the Whitworth game, but Tiland gt;- hurt his arm, and McStottand Compton got leg injuries, but IF I, we're ready, I think we can beat them. "I have a lot of confidencein that 'D' team, and I hope the offensive team can get more touchdowns than f CPS," voiced coachCharles Lappen-busch. Last week the Collegian took a look at the offensive team; this is what waslearned: It scored 25 points against the Whits (the defensive squad made two touchdowns ohintercepted passes) and amassed a total of 372 yards against the Pirates. STRAIGHT LINE Thedefensive squad, using Coach r Charles Lappenbusch's straight-line I defense, is built around a big,strong I line, and small, fast backfield men. • The line, which is a five man affair, • averages 205pounds, with a 200- pounder, and a 185-pound man backing it up. The four deep men, two flankers andthe double safety men, average 164 pounds, but they , are very fast. ^ The two ends are Walt Ewing and Bud Hood. Ewing, although he is a senior, is playing his initial year of first string ball. Hood is afreshman from Montesano. They are both tall men, Ewing going 6 feet, 2 inches, [ and Hood a half inchtaller. Roy j Peterson has also been playing end on the defensive squad, but has been s out withinjuries. | INSIDE TOUGH I The two tackle or guard spots, :' whichever you want to call them on \ thedefensive, are Al Cornett and I Bill Stendal. Stendal is a two-year "'' letterman who transferred from theoffensive to the defensive squad. At ^ the start of the season he was out with the offensive, but in the last \ games played on the big "D" team. Cornett is a junior who transferred from the University ofWashington. * Stendal tips the scales at 209, and *• Coz-nett at 220. A replacement for these men is George "Concrete" Williams. Williams is the most compact man on the squad, scoring 199 % on theweight machine, and standing only 5 feet 7 inches. The middle of the line is ably ^ handled by the bigblond Swede, Art Larrson. Larsson is a senior, the heaviest man on the starting line, 230 pounds, andloves to play tough • football with the "D" squad. His re- , placement is Bill Anagnostou. Called "BigBill" by most of the boys, he tips the scale at 235, and plays offensive fullback and defensive middle of the line.

Both teams are on top of the league standings and only one will reign after tomorrow's game. The Loggers, coached by J o hn Heinrick, are picked as the team to beat. Heinrick, who hascoached at CPS since September 1947, has had top teams every year. In the Evergreen Conference,the Loggers, under Heinrick, have placed second and tied for first in the last two years.

Portland U., who dropped football from theirathletic program, contributed four players to the Loggers' starting lineup. These sought-after playersare Fred Bowen, fullback, Joe Rettalick, end, Ned Con-ley, guard and Earl Combs, tackle. TheLoggers substitute but four men on defense. They include Jack Newart, fleetfooted Walt Espeland, andshifty Ray Spaulding, an all-conference defensive back in '49, in the secondard line. In the,line, big andrugged Bill Kowalski, 6-3 and 225 pounds, plugs up the right tackle slot for the Heinrickmen. Behind a200 pound average line, the Logger backfield boasts an array of talent. With Fred Bowen and DonMurdock doing the pile-driving, Dale Larson of Walt Espeland providing the speed and Art Viafore, theT-formation quarterback slinging his deadly passes, this backfield is billed as dangerous as dynamite. zier two years ago, and Tiland last year. They are both rugged boys, and love the physical contact of the "D" team. The two flankers are Roy Richardson and Larry Lowery. Richardson is well known for hisdefensive work, playing the past two years on. both offense and defense. Lowery is a new man to the"D" team. He is a sophomore, but last year played mostly offensive ball. His rugged play and speed have helped keep the flanks well protected. Vikings Smash Pirates in Easy 37-7 Win With the offensetearing off large chunks of yardage, and the defense holding Whitworth to 9 yards on the ground, theViks rolled to a 37 to 6 win over the Pirates last Saturday i n Spokane. The offense rolled to 15 firstdowns in the first half, and made 25 points, before coach Charles Lap-penbusch cleared the bench. In the time the boys were marking up points the big "D" squad was holding the vaunted Pirate passingattack to a standstill. The Whits threw four passes in the first half, completed none, and had twointercepted, one by Jack Roberts for a touchdown. FIRST SCORE Western's first touchdown came 8 minutes and 20 seconds after the opening kickoff. Roberts intercepted a pass on the Whitworth 15 andbrought it to the 13 before being swarmed under. After an incomplete pass, Norm Hash picked up 3through tackle, and, Al Schireman picked up 6 through the middle. On the next play, Schireman drovethrough the same hole for the touchdown. That completed the scoring in the first quarter. In the secondquarter the Viks moved for seventy yards and a touchdown, with long runs by Taylor, Hash, andSchireman. A pass from Schireman to Art Svidran, with Svidran making a beautiful leaping catch of theball on the Pirtes 8 yard line. The Viks could only make 4 yards on the next three tries, and with 4th and 4 yards to go, Schireman passed to Hal Kloes for the 6 points. INTERCEPTION The third touchdowncame with startling speed, as Jack Roberts intercepted 'a Whitworth pass on the first play after thekickoff. Roberts picked off the ball on the Pirate 20, and went all the way for the score. The big "D" teamagain started on the Whitworth club, as Art Lars-son's hard charging made Ed Kretz fumble. Larson'sbuddy Al Cornett hopped on the ball, and the Viks rolled to their 4th touchdown. Tom Taylor and AlSchireman picked up 25 yards on two plays with Taylor going for 17 and Schireman 8. Taylor took theball over going between the guard and tackle spot.

Partlow is using the straight linedefense, as invented by WWC Coach Charles Lappenbusch, and it works for eight-man football, too.There were a few changes to be made, but in principal it's the same system. Hal would like to sayhello to all of his friends over here, and I know that you will be interested to learn that he was almostelected president of the Parent Teachers association. He talked them out of the position, as he had toomuch to do with football and all of the other sports . . . Guess the boy who was also known as"cocky" is a little worried about getting a big front. "All of the boys bring in potatoes when they run out of pin money, so of course we have an extra lot of starches on the table," Mutt says.

Better come early and be ready to squeeze intight to get the people all in Battersby field. * fc * This weekend should be a pretty good measuring stick to see how far the Viks will go this season. CPS is supposed to be loaded for bear, but that doesn'tseem to scare the blue and white squad. It will be up to both the big "D" team and the offensive squad to pull this one through. One mistake by either of the two squads could mean the ball game, as thisshould be a close one. Washington State college hasn't lost a football game to the University of Idaho in 25 years.

Gathering a random sample of student opinion, two WWCollegianreporters quizzed' several students, asking the question. "What do you think of the proposal to install atelevision set in the student lounge?" Some typical replies: Thelma Carlson, sophomore: "I think it would go over big, but who's going to pay for it? . Laurnell Cooper, freshman: I think it would be fine if thescreen were large enough for everyone to benefit from it." Richard Foltz, freshman: "I'll sign thatpetition." Dale Hoffman, junior: "Would be all right, but everyone would be crowded around it and only afew could be able to see it." Mabel Koger, sophomore: "Very nice—it would always be dark." RemoNorman, freshman: "Fine, but when could we study?'\ Bob Pennington, freshman: "It probably wouldn'tgo over at all, because the smoke in the lounge would obstruct vision." Mary Lou Slater, freshman: "Ithink it would be swell if this were California. But still, it would be a worthwhile investment for Sundaynights." Lee Wagness, freshman: "It would be one more step toward a better college if it could bepurchased and operated by the ASB." Ain't Shunt Histry By ELAINE DAVERIN Pretend to be Cro-Magnon man back in the days of the cave. Trade in your canasta club for one made of wood, and startthe counter clockwise turn of time by practicing how to hurl a hand-hewn eolith (hewn by your ever-loving wife, Mag, of course). For convenience, your fellow fossils will call you Cro. The following is part of yourlife history: * * * Cro was a funny individual (Kindly remember that you are he, so naturally you aren'tany knight in shining armour. You were in the process of dragging dear Mag by her hair to home sweetcave. By the way, the chip off the old fossil is little Non, or Junior, as you prefer.) To continue, Mag wasthe nagging sort of wife, expounding always her theory of why the plateau was square. Her chatterwas heard at all hours of the era, and drove poor Cro to extraction—of Non's tooth. (They did have teeth, you know. They were the only plates to eat food from in those days.) Little Non was a naughty fossilthat particular day. He went for a dinosaur ride to cure his aching gums, when he was supposed to bechipping flint for his head stone. All of a sudden a dynasty charged by, hot in pursuit of a Java-Ape- Manescapee from an ice sheet. The procession knocked poor Non anon into a puddle of boiling lava. Beingthe tough bone that he was, he still had lung power to scream at the top of his 20,000-year-old wind.Papa Cro started on the swing. Pulling Non out of the hot pot, he wrapped him in fig leaves and carried him home. Non recovered his calcium quickly and appeared at the council fire that night; but Papa Crowas still mad and tried to think of some fitting punishment. What would be more effective than to turnnagging Mag on Non? So, dear fossils, as we conclude this theoretical escapade, it is evident thatCro-Magged-Non. 119 W.

In the upper photo, Wally Wilson, sophomore class president and a former radioman, discusses courses with Dr. Merle Kuder, registrar. Norman "Tuffy" Nelson, shown in the other picture, was a.star football player at' WWC four years ago. After three and a half years in the navy, this Sequim man has resumed his studies in physical education, and plans to become a coach. Veterans of nearly every theatre of war are included in the list of ex-servicemen -: registered at WWC this fall quarter,' and these discharged vets make up 40 per cent of the male enrollment. Many of these men were serving on advanced battlefronts at the time peace was declared, and the liberal terms of the G. I. Bill of Rights attracts them now. Nine former students of Western Washington have returned to their alma mater. Norman E. Nelson, of Sequim, who served 26 months on the battleship Nevada, is one of these.' He was present at the Attu, Normandy, and Southern Prance invasions and the bombardment of Cherbourg. A former football star, he has come back to complete his P. E. major and receive his degree. His wife and five-week old son, Norman Wayne, reside at 3104 Orleans street. Bill Case, Bellingham; Joe Dau-phine, East Stanwood; Robert Fra-zier, Bellingham; and Ernest Treas-r ter, Ferndale, stand out as veterans among veterans, all having more than five year's service. WWC is offering no special courses or aids to the returning servicemen, other than increased attention to individual needs. Dr. Merle Kuder, registrar, explained that a survey had been made among potential service students, and it was found that special classes were not desired. In January the college will offer a new course in career planning, however, primarily to assist the men in planning their futures. Dr. Kuder also added that so far. there have been no noticeable problems of readjustment. Included in the WWC ex-service enrollment are the following men: Leonard Bamhill, Baring; Jess and Charles Bailey, brothers, from Fern-dale ; -Robert Baklund,. Bellingham; John E. Britton A Vancouver, B.

Both girls won close victories over their opponents, who were Louise Holbrook for the frosh and Catherine Anderson for the sophomores. ^Barbara is a brown-haired, blue-eyed miss from Belfair and lives at Edens hall. She is a graduate of Men Determine Dance Plans In a series of meetings held during the past week, the Norsemen voted, to have their annual dance at the Crystal ballroom in the Leopold hotel." In their latest meeting held Thursday. October 25, it was decided that the dance should be informal, with the girls wearing their formals and the boys wearing suits. l gt; Because this is one of the few formal affairs held during the school year, it was decided that the dance should be open to the entire school as long as one member of the couple is enrolled this quarter. All ex- Norsemen are also invited. The ticket committee, under the co-chairmanship of Gerald Pells and Dale -Ackley; has announced that there are a limited number of tickets for sale. All Norsemen are requested to buy their tickets at once if they haven't already done so. The price for the tickets will be $1.25 per couple. Navy Day Features Sub Visit, Dance One of the outstanding features of Navy Day for the students of WWCE was the trip to visit the 307 ft. submarine, Carbonero. The sub docked at the port dock Wednesday, and the trips were taken between 9 a. m. and 12.noon Thursday morning. The students were allowed to look at everything in the sub except. the conning tower and the radio room. The girls are anxiously awaiting the Navy Day dance to be sponsored by the Rotary club this evening. The dance will take place in the Crystal ballroom of the Leopold Hotel. Thirty girls have signed up and if they are unable to attend their places will be filled by alternates. Afternoon dresses, small hats, and gloves will be very suitable apparel. Enrollment Upped -Enrollment figures for the fall registration have now been completed and released, showing 342, an increase of six percent over last year's total of 320 students. At the' present there are 261 women students, and 81 men. Forty per cent of the male enrollees are returned veterans. Dr. W. W. Haggard, president, has stated that since the fall quarter began only about six weeks after the surrender of Japan, it did not give most vets time in which to enroll. He believes, however, that the enrollment will continue to grow from now on, and that winter quarter should show a decided increase.

She is a diploma student and a member of Valkyrie. Homecoming festivities this year will restore another old custom which has been dropped since the war. This attractive custom is the one of decorating all organized houses in competition, to see who can make the cleverest effect. A five dollar prize will be awarded to the house judged the one with the best Homecoming decorations. Homecoming committees have begun work now, and many are well underway with their plans for the big week-end November 15-17. Three junior-senior-princesses, from whose number will be elected the queen, are to be chosen by their class sometime next week. AWS Commission Plans Events Joan Haggard moved up from vice-president of AWS to this year's president by unanimous vote of the women students at the last AWS meeting. She replaces Pat Gardiner, who did not. return to school this fall. Marilyn Booras was elected vice-president to replace Joan. The commission meeting held last Tuesday at a tray luncheon took care of much business. Margaret Rutledge and June White were appointed to the nomination committee, and nominations were made for Board of Control vacancies. Kathleen Brodahl was named treasurer until the next election, taking the place of Martha Mona-ghan, who has resigned. Pat Prom-bly was elected social chairman and Pay Lindberg was chosen standards committee chairman. Announce- , ment was made that Joan Haggard and Zelma Blekkink are going to atend the AWS president's convention at WJSC November 16-17, and plans for a party November 30 were discussed. Art Dept. Tea Held A studio tea was held Thursday, October 25, at the Art studio gallery of Western Washington College of Education. The public was invited , at this time to see the Orton Art Collection. Tea was served between three and five o'clock. The pictures have been loaned to the gallery from Washington State College at Pullman. , This is their third appearance in the state, having been previously shown at Spokane and Seattlel The gallery is* open each school day from 9 until 5 o'clock and on Wednesday evening from 7:30 until 9:30. ol we week By JESS BAILEY TOKYO—The newspaper Yomi-uri Hoch'e said today that Japanese officials at Osakea, who were responsible for prosecuting the black market dealings in sugar, had apportioned among themselves 1,530 pounds which had been seized as evidence. NIP FORTUNE—American occupation troops continued to search the Japanese hinterland today for the remains of Nipponese war fortunes after uncovering $300,000,000 worth of hidden diamonds, gold, silver and platinum. In house to house raids, American soldiers working with Japanese police, collected 25 truckloads of hidden arms and ammunition. An estimated 90 per cent of the world's illegal narcotic supply was cut off abruptly by a sweeping U. S. headquarters order which called for the destruction of many acres of plants producing opium, hasish, morphine, and cocaine. MacAr-thur's narcotics ordej wiped out 4,000 acres devoted to growing opium poppies, with about 5,000 Japanese engaged in this pursuit. PEIPING—A crowd of Chinese attacked Japanese civilians in the little Tokyo district of Peiping, tne.first outbreak of_yiolence here since thVsurrender of Nipponese forces. Three deaths were reported. Other Japanese were beaten and stoned., the outbreak followed similar disturbances at Tientsin. RUSSIA —Otpusk-Comrade J. V. Stalin went away on leave, but with customary caution the Russians did not say where he went. The Red army in Austria took over the Zistersdorf o i I f re Ids against Austrian and Allied opposition. In New Poland, the Russians leased several towns near Stettin containing important water works and one of 'Poland's last oil plants. The Russian government was also planning to lease the entire city of Swinemuende, one of 'Germany's main experimental stations.for flying bombs. MEXICO—The familiar ring of gunfire last week assured Mexicans that the presidential campaign was under way. Someone fired a shot into the campaign headquarters of candidate Ezequill Padilla, slightly wounding his assistant. VENEZUELA—The word reaching the United States state department through diplomatic channels is that rebellious forces from San Carlos barracks have taken possession of the residence of President- general Isiah Medinay Angaria at Miraflors, a suburb of Caracas. Heavy firing was reported this morning, shortly after midnight. There also was an apparently reliable report that the rebel garrison at San Carlos Barracks had been given an ultimatum. LONDON—Thousands of London, dock strikers, angered over stalemated wage negotiations, marched through traffic-snarled streets to the Tower of London in a miss demonstration as.the. country's food stocks ebbed.

It is Here for the use of all during their free hours and between classes. It js my belief that the present policy of keeping the main door to the Lounge locked is a poor one. In good weather, when the sun is shining, it is not too bad to have to go around to the back to enter the Lounge. But in Washington winter weather that trip around can mean wet feet and colds. It is also true that if someone wishes to see if another person is in the Lounge, or wants to go there just between classes, going around the back is a waste of time and effort that most students will not make. This door should be open whenever the Lounge is in use. It has been said that the reason for keeping this door locked is to prevent tobacco smoke from permeating the front hall. It would take a lot more traffic down those stairs than there is now to smoke the building up as claimed. Let's open the Lounge! • CHOOSING ROYALTY Homecoming brings with it the selection of a queen and four princesses who rule over all festivities for that week-end. To the students, who will nominate these girls and elect one to reign, we would like to make clear on just what basis your Homecoming princesses are to be chosen. Service and loyalty to the school, scholarship and personality are to be the three requirements necessary to make a girl a member of the royal party. This is not a beauty contest. The Homecoming committees want the girls chosen to be leaders and hard workers for WWC. Sophomores, juniors and seniors can easily make their choices on the basis of what the student has done here at college, and the freshmen are advised to take the high school record of their nominees into consideration before casting their vote. Yes, we want attractive, well-liked girls to represent us as the royal court at Homecoming . . . and we want these girls to be chosen for what they have done for WWC. • ' •. * CO-OPERATE If you have been chosen a member of some commi t te e around school, try to co-operate A Literary Discourse on High Adventure. Forty-two rugged individualists, individualists meaning they were all of one mind—the one somebody didn't put through a psychiatry test—formed into a tidy litle holocaust in front of the gym last Saturday morning in preparation for an invigorating week-end trek to Kulshan Cabin. Two busses loaded with pack-encumbered youth started off down High street and after various stop lights through town, made their way down Cornwall Ave. and out Sunset Drive. Soon the air became thinner and thinner—not because Barney Barnhill went to' sleep and breathed. deeply nor because somebody started a virile rendition of "Minnie the Mermaid", (which would naturally heat it, therefore causing compression), but because we were climbing a pretty steep incline. After a while we passed Mt. Baker High school and there were a. few heart-rending sighs from former inmates who were still at the zenith. However, none of these spirits were the gurgling kind. A zestful climb was in the offing and rumor had it that the trip was only seven miles. Catch the "only"—it has a lot to do with-the aching backs around school. WINDY, HUH? About two miles past Glacier, the. bus driver stopped and we were informed that "this is it". After the other bus and the rest of the hikers had joined us, and Mr. Hearsey had dutifully counted his flock, we set out on a logging trail which broke off the main road and came to a dead end about a half mile further on. Here is where the climbing began. (As an aid to the reader, we shall define the word "up" which also had a lot to do with the condition heretofore mentioned of strained torsos. UP-expresses in its primary and fundamental significance the relation of approach to the highest point or a higher point or part. Used as a verb here, because it denotes action, which most of the participants are out of at the moment.) TIRED YET? Cutting-up and games cf sport along the trail were confined to the width of the trail, therefore no packsacks, lunches or students were lost by falling off a cliff. The still gay but slightly gasping throng drew up at Smokie, a forest service built lean-to with facilities for sitting down damply and the making of coffee. Barney and Dick Brunswig said this was the 3% mile mark, but they only said that to make us pick our dubious selves up and go on. STILL GOING STRONG We plodded steadily upward, our feet slogging in the mud and tripping over twigs and shale. We made about three more miles and came with your chairman to the best of • your ability. It may be a routine job, or maybe you'll get some of the dirty work assigned to you, but do your part.

Their attitude was a lot more adult than some of the people who were dishing out the dirty work. Blanche Deering was the envy of many with that beautiful man of hers. Harborview might well be known as the hall of odd noises. When a sax, a clarinet, a flute, the piano, a singer, the radios and various and sundry other things start sounding off all at once in the evening, no one else could possibly think of studying. Ruth Howerton got seven letters Tuesday • afternoon. She's either answering ads or the gal's got friends. to a litle stake driven into the earth bearing the glad tidings, "9 mi." Here we made ready to throw ourselves off the nearest precipice. But Bob Syre saved the day. He noticed the other side which said, "1 mi." With this refresher in heart, we resumed our course— again upward, not mentioning the 50 pound packs carried by some of the boys. Dick's was quite unique, with two kerosene lanterns hanging at queer angles. He also carried his little golden spaniel, "Ike," who got more attention than any of the rest of us who were leading a dog's life. CHAPT. 5 We ran into snowy territory about a mile from the cabin, and found this part of the trip the toughest of all. Our numb minds kept ticking off these distorted sentiments— "only 700 miles to go" and Virginia Vail swore she heard a mirage-^- the sound of wood being chopped. Another bend in the trail proved that her mirage had two legs and a half cord of wood piled up around him. We had won!"'-' We had defeated the elements! But our renowned seven miles had stretched into eight and a half. HOLD ON, WE'RE NOT THROUGH YET A blazing fire roared in the fireplace, a constant menace to the frigid air which came whistling through the chinks in the walls. After shoving Dale Ackley, Bob Sleem, Jack Graham and Jerry Pells aside, we got a sort of sidewise blast of the heat.

GIRL AMAZONS STAR Highlight of the' Thursday Mixed Recreation evening Was the basketball game between five Amazons of Edens hall and some of the boys around the campus. Who won? The girls. Were they tired? Just ask Amazons McLane, Caldwell, and Hunt. They had also on their team Amazons J. Graham and Buzz Boney. THURSDAY AFTERNOON FOR FROSH Because of the restrictions on frosh hours a plan is being set up for all freshmen to enjoy themselves every Thursday afternoon at 4:00 in the Physical Education building. There will be badminton and swimming for all. So come on out, frosh, and get a little mental relaxation by batting the birdie or braving the swimming pool. SPORTS PARTY ON DOCKET Under the able guidance of Virginia Pendleton, the W$A is turning the next Thursday night Mixed' Recreation evening into an evening of special enjoyment, so bring your friends over and enjoy yourself. You know the old saying "too much Work will make Jack a dull boy" so come out and be stimulated by swinging a racket, batting a volleyball, or taking a dip in our spacious pool. Rumor has it there will be refreshments. VOLLEYBALL TEAMS TO BE FORMED. You don't need an invitation. All you do is come and enjoy yourself. Plans are underway for a volleyball team tournament between different houses on and near the campus on Thursday evenings. One team is needed from Hospice and one from Daniels. Two teams are needed from Edens Hall and two teams-from town, composed of one women's team and one man's team. Please watch the WRA bulletin board for further notice. PIANISTS NEEDED Anyone playing the piano is urged to see Miss Muffly in the Physical Education department as soon as possible. Good sound cash is offered to the party most suited for the position. So come on out, all of you piano players, and show your metal.

This year she, assisted by Mrs. Paul Kaylor, R. N., is giving preliminary exams which are complete except for,heart and lung check-ups. Then, at 8:30 a. m. on Thursday, November 1, the examinations will be completed by Dr. Ralph Taylor, recently honorably discharged from the army, and Dr. S. C. Bajema. Upperclassmen will not be required to take an examination this fall, owing to the continued shortage of doctors. All freshmen and new transfer students, however, will be given a check-up as soon as possible. All students are urged to watch the announcements each day for their names. When they are on the list they are to go to Miss Mead's office, bringing with them their health cards. Miss Mead says that the health department has been very busy this fall. Several students have been in the infirmary, with colds, and numerous minor injuries have been reported. —Cut Courtesy Bellingham Herald act was repeated the following week at Pelelieu, and again at Yap I.

A soph here at WWC, he is helping out in the PE department in teaching swimming, so you can be sure of expert training. 42 Hikers Enjoy Cold Week-End Forty-two students made the trip to Kulshan Cabin last Saturday, • arriving at Glacier by bus at approximately 9:30 a. m. The trail was in good condition and the only mishap was a sprained ankle sustained by Mr. Herbert Hearsey, who accompanied the group as one of the' leaders. The students returned to Bellingham at 7:10 p . m . Sunday-night, after having. .spent a Week-end which, according to bits of overheard conversation, was thoroughly enjoyed by all, in spite of the extremely cold weather. Decorations Back Yes, this year it is Homecoming, not Homefront, as it has been the past few years. During the war not only the name was different, but a lot of traditions flew out the window also. But now that "post-war" is here, it's about time we renewed the old traditions, isn't it? In years past, all organized houses decorated their premises competing for a Homecoming prize. This practice made the community surrounding the college look extremely festive. Some of the older students tell us the football theme was usually prevailing, but we could substitute either our basketball theme or something whipped up from pure ingenuity. In plain English, there is going to be a five dollar prize to the house that has the best Homecoming decorations this year. To you . . . Ra-gans.

Back into the building via the basement, up the fifty-seven stairs on their hands and knees (still blindfolded, mind you) over some messy concoction that had been spilled on each and every step . . . or so it seemed. The rest of the initiation proceeded smoothly up in the Blue room, with the majority of individual performances being rudely decided by the hard-to-please upper classmen. Mrs. Haynes, our housemother, found herself no innocent bystander. She received a proposal from the Bat Man, kept her head, and answered his please with a cool "Why yes, certainly". The smoothest procedure of all was the final step, which was the returning of the girls to their ransacked rooms. When the tumult and the shouting died, the cleaning began. Bedtime came after one in the morning. The next day the freshmen girls, consequently felt like (1) the breaking up of a hard winter, (2) the wreck of the Hesperus, (3) a piece of limp liver, and (4) a number of things which aren't fit to mention.

It is to be an annual event, according to the present group, who formulated the original plans. Wally Wilson, president, and Barney Barnhill, social^ chairman, met the guests at the door and handled the signing of the register, which will also be kept from year to year as part of the tradition. Continuous popular record selections played softly throughout the evening and the crowd sat or toured the house in informal groups, the house members themselves acting as hosts. Two upstairs rooms were open for inspection as the typical college man's den, with pennants, pin-ups, and an occasional textbook. Jack Hayward took pictures during the course of the evening and Dr. and Mrs. M. F. Cederstrom acted as faculty sponsors. Choir Grows; Plans Made The choir, under the directorship of Bernard Regier, has started regular rehearsals. The choir meets at 4:00 Monday through Thursday, with the soprano and bass sections alternating each week on Monday, full choir on Tuesday and Wednesday, and the tenors and altos alternating on Thursday. It has been announced that an assembly program has been planned • wtih the choir participating in the near future. This is to be followed by a Christmas program before the holidays. During winter quarter the choir plans to do "Ballad for Americans" in connection with the All- College Revue. Plans for the spring quarter are not quite complete as yet, but trips for the choir are being planned. "Practice makes perfect," according to many choir members, "and : you can't attain perfection without practice, so attend the rehearsals. Student Pictures Now Complete Permanent student body cards, complete with pictures, were given out to the students of WWC last Tuesday.- Anyone who has not yet picked up his card is asked to report to the registrar's office to get it as soon as possible.

Aptitude Tests Give College Students Chance for Deferment Welcome news for a large number ofWestern's draft-eligible male students came this week with the government's announcement of a plan topermit occupational deferment of students with demonstrated aptitude for college work. PresidentTruman on March 31 authorized local draft boards to defer college students on the basis of scholasticachievement and the results of an aptitude test,* " to be administered throughout J u n e A u g U S t G ra dS Asked to Apply Soon at Registrar's the country in May and June. Western Washington college isone of the 15 educational institutions in the state which will administer the tests on May 26, June 16, LATE BULLETIN—Chairman Carl Vinson of the house armed services committee said Thursday that the house may vote to scuttle Draft Director Hershey*s deferment plans for college students. Rep.Paul J. Kilday plans to offer an amendment to the pending draft bill to bar the tests and leave collegedeferments on the present basis. Meanwhile, Hershey announced that 70 would be the criticalscore on the a p t i t u d e tests (equivalent to army AGCT 120.) and June 30. Dr. Maurice Freehill,director of research, will conduct the testing locally. Application cards for men planning to apply for the test will be available April 12 at local draft boards. To be able to take the aptitude test an applicant:1. Must be a draft registrant who intends to request occupational deferment as a student. 2. Must beunder 26 years old at the time of taking the test. 3. Must have already begun and plan to continue hiscollege studies (the applicant need not be in a four-year college, but his entire course must besatisfactory for transfer of credits to a degree-granting insti-titution). „, 4. Must not have taken the test previously. It has been estimated that the new policy will defer almost all freshmen who enter collegethis fall; all sophomores who rank in the upper half of their freshman class; juniors in the upper two-thirds of their second year; and all seniors who were in the upper three-fourths of their third year. ' Rope, UN Officer, To Visit Campus Making several speaking appearances on campus Tuesday, April 10,will be Dr. Frederick T. Rope, educational liason officer of the United States mission to the UnitedNations, who has recently returned from Japan. His schedule here includes the following talks: 10:30a. m., AWS assembly in the auditorium; 12:00, lunch with the International Relations club; 1:00 p.m., Prof. Thomas Hunt's geography class, room 30; 2:00 p. m., a joint meeting of Dr. Keith Murray'ssociology class and Miss Nora Cummins' political science class, room 209; faculty meeting, 4:00 p. m. Students who are free at the hours designated are welcome to join any of the groups. Miss Cumminssays "This is an opportunity to talk with someone who has been in the midst of what is happening." Any senior who expects to receive a degree or a certificate in either June or August and has as yet notmade application for same is urged by Donald Ferris, registrar, to do so as soon as possible. Mr. Ferrisstates that on registration day most of the seniors filled out their application blanks in the library, but if any of these students were missed at that time, they will be taken care of by reporting to the registrar'soffice and filling out the application as soon as possible.

After the show entertainment will be provided forCentral's actors. The same courtesy will be extended to Western after their show at CWC. Pagelsrequests that all students cooperate in making the visiting students welcome on Western's campus.Bellingham Fine Place to Live, Concludes Sociology Class "Bellingham is an exceptionally fine place tolive, raise children and enjoy life." So concludes a report on the population and demography ofBellingham which *was submitted to Dr. Joseph Cavanaugh, sociology instructor at WWC, by seven students of his winter quarter population class. Although the authors point out that Bellingham is a fineplace to live, the survey shows that there is small chance of a large increase in populaton. Two of thecity's major industries, logging and fishing, have been exploited through the years and slowly dissipatedas a means of community income. Apparently there is little hope of a major increase in municipal payroll within the next few years. Therefore, a larger population could not be supported, the report concludes. The report was compiled and edited by Thomas Conley from theses and statistics submitted byVernon Childs, B e r n a r d Dorcy, Barbara Herbert, Don Miller, Marie Jovano-vich and Larry Goodbaum. It includes such phases of municipal interest as the history and background of the city, industry and labor distribution, religions f o u nd within the city, the marital status of the population of the city ofBellingham, race and nativity, and the birth and death rate rate of the inhabitants of Bellingham. The study shows that five of the largest industries of Bellingham are seasonal, causing unemployment inwinter. Laborers of all types, skilled and unskilled, compose about 65 per cent of the working force ofBellingham with an average wage of $2,335 per year. The study shows that Bellingham might well becalled the city of churches, for 48 churches are found in Bellingham. Of these, 46 are Protestant andtwo are Catholic. Total Catholic membership is approximately 3100. Protestant c h u r c h es range insize from the Garden street Methodist church with an enrollment of 1,427 to the Theosophists with amembership of three. The, Theosophists are the only church organization to boast a perfect attendance record of all members. The report was lacking in statistics concerning the race and nativity of thecitizens of Bellingham but it did conclude that the.two distinct native groups in Bellingham areCanadians and Scandinavians. Only 25 Negroes were registered in the 1940 census. ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1951 April 6 - Page 2 ---------- EDITORIALS \ Challenge for Educators Basically sound as a safeguard protecting personal liberty and freedom of conscience, the governmental principle of separation of church and state, as applied to lt;the public schools, does not involve a complete indifference to questions of moral and spiritual values.The fact that religious doctrine or sectarian creed is rightly excluded from the realm of public instructiondoes not mean that schools need be oblivious to the need of children to grow and be nurtured morally, as well as p hysically and mentally. Very definite is the position taken by the Educational Policiescommission of the NEA in a recent report on "Moral and Spiritual Values in the Public Schools." I tdeclares that the schools "should receive a clear mandate to continue and to strengthen their efforts inteaching the values which have made America great." So clear, indeed, is this mandate that thecommission declares that should there arise a conflict between success in mastering the varioussubjects of study and the development of moral and spiritual values, "there must be no questionwhatever as to the willingness of the school to subordinate all other considerations to those whichconcern moral and spiritual standards." Here is a summons and a challenge to those.who are about toenter the field of education, to those who conscientiously feel that their calling is of supreme importanceto the survival of this nation and the world.

By EDDIE HICKENBOTTOM President, Associated Students Since the Fireside Chat was notwritten last week I would like to welcome as new members to the Board of Control the following people:Paul Gillie, Betty Grocott, Dick Peder-ison and Lois French. These people have already, after only twoweeks on the board, showed great promise of becoming outstanding mem-bers. However, it will take a lot of work by them before they will approach the work which was done by t he members who left theboard this last quarter. These members, Norm 'Hash, Dave Grocott, Slats Salsgiver, and MaryPagels—did very outstanding work. It has been through the efforts of these people that our televisionset was installed and that our neon sign will soon be erected. IMPORTANT DATES TO REMEMBER ,On Thursday night, April 19, the CWC exchange assembly will be presented in our auditorium. I hopethat about 800 of the student body (that's all the auditorium will hold) will start saving their scheckels topay the 40 cent admssion price. The Associated Women Students are in charge of the ticket sales. Oneach ticket sold they will receive 10 cents which will go toward their DP student next year. Here is anopportunity to enjoy a tremendous show and to contribute towards a worthy cause. April 27-28 the Dr.E. A. Bond chapter of the Future Teachers of America at Western are hosts to a state meeting of thesechapters for the purpose of founding a state organizaton. In this, its first year of organization, I thinkwe should congratulate the FTA clu'o for their outstanding work in founding a state organization. Guestson the campus that weekend will be Mrs. Pearl Wanamaker, State Superintendent of Public Instructioncor a representative from her Office) and Dr. Roland Upton, state presdent of the WEA.. For many of youfuture teachers here is an opportunity to become acquainted with the WEA and the activities of itssubsidiary, the FTA. The third date to remember is May 16. The board Wednesday appointed BudWoodward (who will pick his co-chairman) to handle this year's event. Having observed Bud's work in thepast I am sure that this year's Campus day will be one of the best ever. Bud will need a lot of workers tohelp him out on this job. Anyone wishing to help can contact Bud. Just remember, Campus day is onlyas good as you students make it. Let's make this one really great! The editor of the Springfield Student,Springfield Mass., was able to write a complete final exam from crib notes, though there were sevenproctors in the room. The dean had authorized him to take the exam in a course in which he was notenrolled, to prove that such practices could be carried out. Mailbag: Letters to the Editor The Collegianwelcomes letters to the editor on all subjects of general interest. No anonymous letters will be printed but names will be withheld on request An attempt will be made to print all sides of controversial issues.Preference will be given to signed letters when space requirements dictate limitations. The editorreserves the right to delete obscene or questionable passages or statements which aire personal ormalicious in intent in the judgment of the Collegian staff. Letters do not necessarily reflect the policy ofthe' paper, nor is the Collegian responsible for opinions expressed. QUESTIONS ABOUT SUB Aboutthis proposed Student Union Building — how about a little more information. Just exactly what is aSUB? What is it for? I understand it will house "a lounge, snack bar, recreation room, student bodyoffices, and other student body services." I ask, with all due respect to the people involved, what iswrong with the present student body offices and publications o f f i c e ? As for the lounge, we have onenow and another going up in the new Auditorium- music building. Why build another one? Samegoes for the snack bar. Concerning the recreation room, can't one be set up in one of the existingbuildingsp without constructing a new edifice for it? I realize that $1.50 a quarter isn't a great sum, butI feel the same way about that as I do about paying tuition. One reason many students come to Western is because it is an inexpensive c o l l e g e , and I favor keeping it that way. Unless the "other studentbody services" to be rendered by the SUB are a great deal more important than those listed above (anexcerpt from the March 30 Collegian) I shall certainly not give the proposal my vote. I don't like to be the only dissenting voice in this movement, but "them's my sentiments." . I would appreciate it if youwould give my views a public airing, unless, of course, someone else happens to voice a betterexpressed dissension. Thank you very much. Respectfully, Roger Gray. Sunday's Child Full OfGrace; Hammer Is Full of Haste Literally flying this week was Western's Dr. Irwin A. Hammer, whofound that his crowded schedule almost compelled him to be in two parts of the state at once. Dr.Hammer was in Spokane this week attending a convention of the Inland Empire Educationassociation. Wednesday night at 8 p. m. he was scheduled , to address a P-TA meeting in Sea*|le. The roving educator caught a train from Spokane to Seattle, rushed to the school, gave his speech, andhurried back to the train depot for an overnight hop back to Spokane, and Thursday's conventionsessions. (Let's hope he didn't lose his toothbrush somewhere along the line.) LITTLE MAN ONCAMPUS By Bibler 'I'm going to TRY to make this an interesting course/ Schools Urged to Teach Values That Made America Great By JOYCE GILLIE A timely plea for emphasis on moral and spiritual values in the public schools is contained in a 100-page booklet recently published by the Educational Policiescommission of the National Education Association and t h e American* —~ Association of SchoolAdministrators. The book contains much significant material for those engaged in public educationand those about to enter this field. Declaring that intelligent and fervent loyalty to such values isessential to the survival of this n a t i o n it underscores the schools' "mandate to continue and tostrengthen their efforts in teaching the values which have made America great." Effectivelysidestepping the touchy question of religious beliefs, the commission finds 10 specific interrelatedethical values held in common by most Americans and worthy of embodiment in the school program.INDIVH gt;UAL, BASIC VALUE The fundamental value is that of the supreme importance of theindividual. The other nine, developing from this basic value, are: moral responsibility, institutions as the servants of man, common consent, devotion to truth, respect for excellence, moral quality,brotherhood; the pursuit of happiness, and spiritual enrichment. Although Americans commonlyacccept these values they disagree as to the sanctions, or reasons people give for accepting them. The"why" of moral behavior should always be pointed out to the child, and in selecting the right sanction fora given situation, the teacher is faced wth a delicate problem, as illustrated in the chapter on sanctions. The successful outcome of the program depends on individual classroom teachers. The commission calls for skilled, devoted, and imaginative teachers to carry out the program. BOLE OF TEACHERS'COLLEGES Teacher education institutions thus play an important role in the development of moralvalues in the schools. The commission suggests that such institutions' should give full recognition tothese values in their curricula. Personal character, along with scholarship and t e a c h i n g skills,should be considered in the selection of students, in evaluating the competence of student teachers,and in recommending prospective teachers. Especially timely, in view of the recent widespread criticismof the "amateur" sports, is the commission's attitude toward athletics. They point out that team sportsoffer an unusual opportunity for c h a r a c t er building; potential results of athletic competition are a sense of comradeship, equality, respect for iirt gt; dividual excellence, and fair play. The physicaleducation instructor who feels that his livelihood depends on winning games is handicapped in producing results in what the commission feels is his most important task': the fullest development ofindividual capacities and of moral and spiritual values for all students. SCHOOLS HAVE PARTNERSThe final chapter in the report deals with the schools' partners in stimulating moral and s p i r i t u algrowth: the home, church, and community. It suggests that the public school system should endeavorto unite the resources of the community for the constructive development of childhood and youth.Certainly one of America's most urgent needs is for men and women with lofty moral q u a l i t i e s . The schools cannot shirk their responsibilities in this direction; they must work with the home and thechurch in developing for world leadership generations of healthy, educated, and socially consciouscitizens. (Educational Policies Commission, "Moral and Spiritual Values in the Public Schools,"published by National Education Association of the United States, 1951, $1.00.) ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1951 April 6 - Page 3 ---------- Safety Council Lays Plans for Civil Defense in Event Of Atomic Air Attacks By JANET CRAIG Becauseof the danger of an atomic attack and the consequent importance of installing adequate defensemeasures, the college safety council this week suggested an over-all program of civilian defense to beemployed on the campus. ( This plan, which would be co-ordinated with the local city defense units,would involve the training of rescue squads and first aid workers along with equipping certain buildings forfirst aid shelters. * In case of attack approximately 15 to 20 men, students and faculty, would beassigned to posts in the main building and Edens ball, the two buildings on the campus that are notfireproof. These workers would be trained under the direction of the Bellingham fire department. Thesame number of men would be stationed at designated posts on the campus to enforce safetymeasures and direct traffic in case of an attack. The Bellingham police department would assist in the training of the police, squads. USE OF SHELTERS Under plans for first aid certain buildings wouldbe used for shelters and would be equipped with kits and trained personnel. Bottled water and cannedfood would also be stocked in the shelters. The first step in a program of this kind is to contact peoplewho have had previous experience in first aid or rescue work and those interested in receiving instruction on defense measures. Participation in a program of this type can hardly be overemphasized. By actively engaging in civilian defense a student will not only be placing himself in a position to save human lives in case of an attack, but he will find many practical applications of applying this knowledge in every day life. Knowledge of defense measures is of special value to prospective teachers who arefrequently called upon in this national emergency to employ and teach civilian defense in the publicschools. Social Work State Exams Will Be Administered Soon State merit examinations will be giventhis month for beginning level, and professional, social work positions in Washington state. Startingsalaries for positions requiring no experience are $227 and $249. Opportunities are available for JuniorVisitors in the public assistance program and for training positions in child welfare work. Higher level professional jobs start from $273 to $343. College seniors and graduate students interested in takingthese examinations should file applications by Thursday, April 12. No other examinations for thesejobs will be held before the school year closes, according to Harold A. Lang, State Personnel Boardsupervisor. Application forms and further information, be secured from the State Personnel board, 1209 Smith tower, Seattle 4, Washington, MAin 0217. Art Work on View An exhibition of paintings anddesigns by the Western Washington art faculty is being held through April 7 in the Studio gallery on thesecond floor of the Arts building. The public is invited to attend. National Art Group Meeting Attended By Hazel Plympton Western's faculty member who journeyed the longest distance from the campus overspring vacation was Miss Hazel Plympton, chairman of the art department, who traveled by streamlinerto New York city to attend the National Art-Education conference March 26-29. Miss Plymptonreported thatf the conference on art education was composed of panel discussions, workshops andassembly meetings. At the general meeting Dr. Earl Jl Mc- Grath, United States commissioner ofeducation, addressed the 1500 delegates and emphasized the importance of art in the generaleducation program. A panel discusion on design composed of three nationally known art consultors,Donald Oesnlager, theatrical designer; Dorothy Leibes, textile designer; and Mr. John's fashiondesigner (associated with Mr. John's Inc.), spoke to the assembly on ways whereby teachers couldhelp and encourage young designers in the schools. WORKSHOPS INTERESTING The most interesting and valuable aspect of the conference according to Miss Plympton, were the workshops held onMarch 26 and 27. The 40 art instructors were divided into four groups to discuss problems in artinstruction. "It was interesting to hear such a large cross section of opinions, and from thesediscussions we were able to work outvmany solutions to the problems in the field of art education,"she said. WWCollegian Page 3 Friday, April 6, 1951 Honorable Mention In Rug Design Goes to MissPeck Miss Miriam Peck of the art faculty of Western Washington college has been judged to be among the eight top designers in the 1951 National Rug competition at Detroit, Michigan. The competitionincluded thousands of entries from 47 of the states. In the contest three of the top prizes were cash, and the next five in line were honorable mentions plus prizes. Miss Peck's entry was in this latter group.One of her second designs was chosen to be shown in the Detroit Institute of art. This was chosen outof 100 from the institute's display. After this second design has been displayed in Detroit, it will pass toNew York, Chicago, and other galleries. Her designs were painted in repeat actual size or in scale, fordefinite types of carpet weave according to the limitations of the manufacturers' requirements. A woven sample in appropriate weave accompanied each of the designs. Miss Peck returned winter quarter from Cranbrook Academy of Art in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan, where she had been studying with MarianneStrengfield, outstanding figure in the field of design. Two of Miss Peck's drapery designs are beingcurrently exhibited in a collection of drapery and upholstery designs touring the Pacific states. One ofthese was cited for honorable mention when the exhibit opened in February in the San: FranciscoMuseum of Art.

Of course, there are a million or more things that could happen to any of the teams between now and the opening day of the world series. In the senior league I see no reason for not staying with thechampions, Philadelphia Phillies. These boys are young and are now veterans with a lot behind them.They have lost many pitchers—not in numbers, but in numbers of wins—they are sorely missing. Ofcourse this year the Phillies will have to depend on the "Fireman" of the year—Jim Konstanty. If the bigboy is again right, it will be another Philadelphia year. In case you haven't seen it before, he is a school teacher in the winter and" just pitches in the summer. Of course, baseball doesn't help keep his family or anything. GIANTS, DODGERS IN SCRAP Fighting it out for the number two spot, and also giving thechamps a tough battle, will be the New York Giants and the Brooklyn Dodgers. The two old rivals shouldhave a tight battle the whole trip, but I don't think they have the necessary push to get through theseason. St. Louis, the team many think will win the pennant, has too many question marks as far as Ican see. Many of their key players are getting on in age for good major league baseball, but I pick them to be in the four-five area, with the Pittsburgh Pirates. It could be a touch of personal sentiment, but thatalong with the bat of Ralph Kiner, will keep the Pirates in or knocking on the door of the first division. AHUNCH ON THE BRAVES Here is the pick that most people will snicker at, if they don't break intouncontrollable laughter: the Boston Braves to end up in sixth spot. I just can't say anything to that, it'sjust a hunch. Fighting it out for the cellar spot will be the boys who are used to being there, the ChicagoCubs and the Cincinnati Reds. These two teams just don't seem to have it as far as major league baseball is concerned. They have bright stars at one or two spots, but there just isn't enough there to pull themout of the cold confines of the basement. That's the way I pick them. I imagine there are many arguments against it, but write your own list down now, and we'll see how we both come out next fall. NOW IT'SYOUR TURN Next week I'll put down my looks at the American league, with some comments about theteams. I also suggest that you do the same, and put it somplace where you can find it at the end of thesummer. Then you can see just how .successful you have been in your analyses of the teams.

ALWAYS GO TO BELLINGHAM'S MOST POPULAR FOODMARKET! ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1951 April 6 - Page 8 ---------- Murray Reviews Five Years of Government By BOB BOWMAN "I have been very pleased with the highcalibre of ASB presidents and Board of Control members which the students of VyWC have electedduring the last few years." , Dr. Keith Murray, out-going Board of Control faculty adviser, expressed hisadmiration of student, leaders from the privacy of his office. Dr. Murray believes that Western's* —- ' ""student government is successful within its boundaries. He claims that it is fairly efficient in teaching1students the principles of a democratic system and declared that many outstanding people havecome from the ranks of Western's student leaders. MORE INTEREST NEEDED Murray believes thatgreat improvement in student government would be effected if students were Dr. KEITH MURRAYmore interested in the affairs of the school. "One board meeting per quarter in the presence of the ICOwould be a means of acquainting at least the leaders of campus activitise with school problems," Murray stated. As faculty adviser, Dr. Murray has worked with five ASB presidents over a period of as manyyears. The first of the series of student presidents which he advised .was Don Packard, WWC prexyof the 1946- 1947 school year. "Packard faced the problem of post-war campus rehabilitation," Dr.Murray recalled. President for the following term, 1947-1948, was Halldor Karason, now an instructor atWWC. "Karason had the big problem of setting up a new financial system," Murray said. "He did a goodjob of it." TWO SMOOTH YEARS The following two years, presided over by Gus Pagels and Bill Joneswent very smoothly. Murray believes that sufficient funds, coupled with efficent board members andindustrious presidents were together responsible for this campus tranquility. "Jones' term last yearwas enlivened by the honorary fraternity question," Murray recalls. Dr. Murray reminds students thattoday's ASB president, Eddie Hick-enbottom, is confronted with a situation which the former campusleaders never encountered. That situation is insufficient funds resulting from decreased enrollment."Budget is Western's number one problem," Murray stated. His advice for combating the budgetproblem is a more, efficient accounting of student funds. Dr. Murray declared that as a whole Western'sstudent government is a success. He is particularly impressed with the ability of student voters toelect leaders who are capable and not merely popular. o The college which would serve the nationand the world today must meet, with spirited determination, the challenge of its central obligation. Itmust seek to graduate good Americans — informed, courageous, and responsible.—C. P. Richards.

This does not say that the nineyoung Alabama Negroes standing in peril of their'lives should be made to suffer the consequences . . .This only means that the Communist leadership in this country is more interested in propaganda thanjustice. It cannot mean that the American people in general and the people of the State of Alabama inparticular must imitate Communists and sacrifice justice to external considerations."— New YorkTimes, May 10, 1933.

There his lively appreciation of the arts wasawakened in Scotland, Ireland, England, Italy, Spain, Belgium, France and-Holland. He has alsotraveled in the Baltic, in Russia, North Africa, Sicily and the Balearic Islands. ^ Upon his return to theUnited States, he taught for a time at the George school, and at Colorado State .College of Educationwhere he earned his master's degree. He did additional research work at the Uni-vrsities ofPennsylvania and Virginia, Ohio State university and wound up at Harvard as a visiting professor.When war came he left an editorship in the Macmillan company and served in the Pacific. From hisexperiences there came the prize-winning "Tales of the South Pacific."

Also, I might add that'after ^pushing the log booms aside and dragging, bay bottom, city authorities recovered the sources of the gargle and four "blubs" heard last Friday morning near the waterfront according to last week's publication.

Let us shine their stars that they may glow in deserving brilliance . . . Let us tarnish them only with our tears. Just the other day came the announcement that two men of nearby, communities, who had been declared missing have been found and are prisoners of war. For the five that are missing, I say, let us lift up prayers of hope, not stars of death. Lydgate Discusses Gallup Surveys • William A.

She was told to write a name feature asking people what they wanted the Easter Bunny to \ bring them.

He told a few of the results obtained from all over the nation on the 1944 presidential election. "The general concensus of opinion runs," Mr. Lydgate said, "that Roosevelt will be the Democratic presidential nominee, and that either Thomas Dewey, governor of New York state, or Wendell Willkie, will be the Republican leader. As for the $64 question, who'll come out on top—well, the country is pretty well divided, and the way it now stands the soldier vote holds the balance."

"The modern cruiser," began It. •Bill Hussey as he tilted back in a chair in the WWCollegian office, "is a complete city on ship. She has "everything but a shoemaker. There are a drugstore, hospital, movies, and all the essentials of a city. "We even have mail service, although it took from November to March for us to receive our Christ- • mas packages and letters. The mail was sent from the port but we had changed positions—so by the time we finally got it, those who had food, received it in an unappetizing condition. ' "While we were at one of the bases, we had a tennis match with a combined team of New Zealand-ers, Australians, and American. We won." beamed the lieutenant. "And just before firing on the Gilberts started," he continued reflectively, "we had some wonderful ping pong games." When asked about his most interesting non-military experience, Lt. Hussey's golden tan seemed darker as his white teeth flashed in a smile. "I'd vote," he said, ^ "for the trips upstream in rubber boats visiting the native tribes in the Northern Solomons,'' •' more candids (Continued from Page Two) assigned to-the Alaska communications supply service in Seattle. • Becoming an Army Air Force "tripple-threat man" upon his completion of bombardier training at Carlsbad, New Mexico, Cadet Tony Bezer, WWC sophomore last year, was appointed a Flight officer on April 1.

With the completion of the Red Cross drive, the school is not directly aiding the war effort. The stamps are now available. Need you be urged to buy a future stake in your country? Varsity Turnouts Show Two . Men Prepared For Team Duty; Good Golf Prospects • Only two men, Paul Foster and Dale Burklund, have been steadily turning out for varsity tennis, but- Chuck Lappenbusch has been earnestly coaching their net play since the beginning of spring quarter. Both tennis players have had considerable experience and make a good court showing. However, unless the squad is broadened to in-elude the advanced women play-- ers that Lapp is instructing, the prospects for a team are rather slim. More tennis • material might be found in Chuck Pomeroy and Lloyd Jones, who have made a fair showing on the courts the last few days. Coach Lappenbusch states that the obtaining of competition is the most difficult task at the present. How About Golf? Many golf enthusiasts have been wondering about the possibilities of a WWC golf team. Maple court men, Roy Wark, Gene Sivertson, Lowell Doud, Bob Ross, and Gerry Pells, have turned over their free time to golfing lately. Coach Sam Carver, who has ably /guided past golf teams to good showings in competition, would be enthused by some of the individual scores that have been made so early in the season.

After having William Lydgate's facts and figures of voting percentages brought before us Tuesday in assembly, WWC women voters should straighten their' shoulders under that'weight of responsibility, march with determination to the polls, and salute the'man whom they sincerely believe will most ably guide our warring nation. . Here in our college, the many women' Voters living away from home will not have the party influence of the men in their farri-ly to decide their votes for them. Contrary to. the average result of woman suffrage as cited by Lyd-gate, the majority of the conclusions reached by WWC women voters can .and should rest with the.worrjan herself. WE CANT AFFORD TO MISS IT If we don't care, think what a imess things will be. After all, who's going to'be running things .after this war? What age. if it' isn't the college age, is the one that. should- be concerned with postwar/planning? .Every one .of us, who will be living the most significant days of our lives after this war,'should take every opportunity to obtain the proper backgrounds that we can understand how we may best-promote a postwar peace. Next Friday during the Conference on Postwar Problems, we will have one of those opportunities. Let's not pass up this chance to hear discussions by people who have studied and know the situation. ERICKSON, JOHNSON DO GRAYS HARBOR WORK • Miss Emma Erickson and Miss Vivian Johnson are participating now in the In-Service program in . Grays Harbor county! They are working with Miss Blanche Pennick, former student here, and have their headquarters in Montesaho' and Aberdeen. Miss Erickson and Miss Johnson will work hi the program for a period of six weeks. ..V:-'. Miss Dorothea Waters was married to Lt. Vern P. Butts, U. S. Marine Corps, in Florida recently, where the groom is stationed. They are now living at North Cocoa Beach. Mrs. Butts is the daughter of Mrs. Jean P. Wat-ersr Point Roberts,^ and the groom is the son of Mr. and Mrs. H. D. Butts, of Stan-wood. The bride was a member of t he WWC appointment bureau from 19 42 until last October. ' New Dorm Sisters Hail From Portland ' • Portland has sent two more girls to WWC in the form of Ann and Gene Hochschied, freshmen. Ann graduated from the Washington high school in Oregon in 1940 and has been working in a department store since. She lives to swim, and has participated in park swim meets in that state. Gene likes to swim too but she' says that she would almost rather' bowl. She has been engaged in the novel occupation of working in a shoe repair shop on the weekends and during vacations. Both girls want to be teachers, but Gene wants to specialize in physical education. MONTEITH WEDDING • Correction: The wedding of WAC Private Margaret E. Monteith reported in last week's paper occurred in New Rochelle, New Jersey, instead of in Seattle. The wedding took place at the groom's home. Both the bride arid groom are stationed at the Edgewood Arsenal in Maryland. Woman of the Week Strike three—you're out! You guessed it, baseball, but can you guess who this pitcher is who is fanning players out right and left? It's not a man, it's a girl,, on our campus, who has made quite a name for herself not only in baseball but also in the other feminine fields of sports. But, at baseball she is a seasoned veteran with one previous year of college experience, two years of high school experience, and three years of junior high experience—not to mention back-yard sessions in her, early childhood. " "Versatile" aptly applies to the Woman of the Week who can spend an afternoon "roughing it up" in athletics and yet—spend the evening writing serious and dreamy poetry. Some of her poetic works have been published in the WWCollegian, but many more adorn the door of her room at Edens Hall. An active WR/V member, a recently-elected member of Board of Control, an .officer-of her sophomore, class — she should need no further description but she is a" Norwegian, Swede, such—well, anyway she has fair skin, blonde hair which is naturally wavy, and a tendency to eat nothing but fruit for "breakfast. Oh, so that gave her away! Alice- Marie -Anderson is this week's woman. . -•" ••!... House H v EDENS PEELINGS BY SPUD— • Ah, 'tis spring—de boid is on de wing—no! de wing is on de boid. Anyhow the dorm gals are seen taking advantage of this exhilarating sunshine and green in their daily after dinner walks and numerous attempts to get that much-sought- after sun tan. Lura Jo and Lorraine McConnell are shining examples of the latter, although rumor has it that it is a spientific mystery as ..to how those splotches (freckles) of Mac's can ever turn into a tan. M. L. Burke is the new secretary-treasurer, Virgie Sorgenfrei, the new social chairman, and Peggy Custer, reporter, as a result of Wednesday's election. It isn't enough to get a new fur coat and announce an engagement all in one week, so Zosia gets/ two long-distance phone calls from a certain little giiy in Colorado to make that ever-so radiant glow a ' little more radiant. RAGAN'S RAMBLINGS Chew, chew,- chew, baby—that's what the girls at Ragan's did at their first house meeting of the quarter. While Ellerine Shannon walked away with the house presidency and Margaret Robinson 'became the new social chairman, Ruth Mclnnes departed with the empty caramel dish. A postscript from last quarter's finals are the signs on various doors which range from "Master- Mind Mansion"'and "Solitary Confinement" to "The Padded Cell" and "Violent Ward." (Wonder .what the' inmates are like?) ftHUOUkw*mhH Pepsi-Cola Bottling : : v y - : : ; ; - ; C o ^ ' \ of Bellingham Greene, Vistaunet, Van Wieringen Join 1 Do' Ranks • Ellen Van Wieringen, who graduated from WWC last spring, left this week for Austin, Texas, where v her marriage to Lt.

Miss Van ; Wieringen has been teaching art in the Vancouver, Wash., school system. since her graduation.: She is: the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. William Van Wieringen, ;of Mt. Vernon. She was accompanied on. the trip, by her mother.? The bride-to-be was vice president of the student body last year and stepped up to take the responsibilities of the presidency in the absence of Art Clark during the spring quarter. She was also active as a member of WRA, Valkyrie, and ACE, and a prominent art student, as well as Klipsun art editor. • In a pre-Easter wedding at the St. James Presbyterian church, Miss Joan Greene became the bride of navy pilot, Ensign James Fleming Wright, USNR, on Friday evening, March 31. The bride last attended WWC in 1942. She is the daughter of Attorney and Mrs. R. W. Greene, and Wright is the son of Mr. and Mrs. E. G. Wright, both. well-known Bellingham families. Ensign Wright flew up from Jacksonville, Fla., where he has been stationed, and at the end of his two-week leave his bride will accompany him to San Diego, where he has been assigned. • Miss Helen Vistaunet, a former student of WWC, was recently married to Lt. Erling Stensland of the U.S. Army Air corps. The wedding took place in March when the groom was home on leave from Tuscon,, Arizona. The couple spent a short honeymoon in Vancouver, B. C. and then traveled to Arizona where they will make their home.

UNIVERSITY OF B, C: Vol.XLV — No. 2 Western Washington College of Education, Bellingham, Washington Friday, October 11, 1946 Tlolse notes . . . by wait baker WELCOME This year, along with the usual frosh welcoming ceremonies, we extend a special welcome hand to the many veterans that now grace our halls. It is with a song in our hearts arid thankfulness in. our souls that we welcome them back. It is good to see such familiar faces as Norm Dahl, ex-navy; Joe Hoard, a former B-17 pilot and prisoner of war; Bill Brown, Wade Haggard, and numerous other old timers back in the fold. THE WOODEN CROSSES In the midst of the returning back of the returning veteran, we must pay homage and not close our memories to the former Western Washington College men that will never again we welcomed back, for they are numbered among those quarter of a million wooden crosses throughout the world, that represent the price in human lives that America paid for victory. Those wooden crosses reach far beyond the horizon of our vision. Those crosses are there, because the men who lie beneath them died to cross out war. In giving their lives, they crossed out their dreams, their hopes and their ambitions. When you look at those gold stars on the flag in the main hall, just mutter a little prayer for the Western Washington College men who represent those stars, who left the campus, only to have their futures crossed out to help save this sick world of today. To James Junkin, Robert Barnes, Robert Nelson and all the others that have their names on wooden crosses, we will never forget their sacrifice. The reason men must die in war is because men have failed to live for peace. Now the way has been cleared again for us to live for peace. That is why we would like to say to the frosh and to the vets, that securing an education, and learning to understand our fellow men, are two of our main weapons for a lasting peace. When things aren't going so well for you at school, just think about those wooden crosses and redouble your efforts to succeed. INSECT POWDER NEEDED ~ Have you ever noticed the fellow who is always unhappy, unless an audience is viewing his doings? He walks into the rec hour dance and if no one's eyes are turned in his direction, he will talk very loud, or will cut capers, even make a fool of himself until the spotlight'hits him. He is a confirmed exhibitionist. He is always giving a performance. Just like a certain political figure of today, he would rather make a jackass of himself than remain unnoticed. He will sooon,realize that he is not the school idol. In spite of his generous qualities, of his mental qualifications and his inborn decency, he will be as popular as the proverbial black and white animal is at a summer picnic. He ought to marry a blind, deaf and dumb wife. She'd suffer less. College is high time to take stock of one's social defects. Insects get into people's hair, so don't be one. Regional Institute Monday Library Presented With Book Dedicated To Ex-Student In memory of James1 A. Junkin, former WWC student who was killed in action while serving with the United States Marines, a boob, "Coral Conies High," by Captain George F. Hunt,' USMC, has been presented to the college library. The book was dedicated by Mrs. Louis C. Abrams. It is the story of the battle for the small Pacific island, Peleliu, the struggle in which Lt. Junkin lost his life. The book has not yet b e en placed on the shelf in the iibrarybiit 'will"be made available^some time next week. The dedication reads: "Presented to Western Washington College by Mrs. Louis C. Abrams in memory of 1st Lt. James A. Junkin, Hdq. Co., 3rd Bn., 1st Marines, 1st Marine Division, US Marines, who was killed in action in the battle fought against the Japanese, on the Island of Peleliu, September 15, 1944. "He died before his allotted span of years that we might live in safety and enjoy the •rich blessings of peace through all the years to come. "'Lord God of Hosts be with us yet, Lest we forget—lest we forget'." The name of Jim Junkin means much to students who attended WWC before the war years. He is remembered as a prominent personality in student affairs, as a fellow who was well liked by everyone, as a person one likes to have as a friend. His death came as a blow to his many college friends. Jim will always be missed by those who knew him. '•71k n tltat . . . by halldor karason College classrooms all over the country are filled to overflowing with ex-servicemen. Men are going back to school who have been a Way from the classroom for years. Others are back to complete the college education that was interrupted by the War. What is the reason for this urge for education? Part of the answers may be that the G. /. Bill of Rights makes it possible for many men to finance the education they have always Wanted. That is only part of the answer. The most important reason is, I believe, that the War made many people more aware pf the extent-of their own" ignorance and of the importance of knowledge, general and specialized, in the rebuilding of a decent World after the war. It has bee,n inferred by many, even by some of our prominent educators, that the educational benefits of the C. I. Bill of Rights would be of no great advantage to the nation, the schools, or to the ex-CI. They have said that the average ex-serviceman would see those benefits only as an opportunity to get out of work by loafing in college. It is probably a little too soon to make a statement as definite as that, but according to all the statistics which have been released on the matter, the ex-CTs in every college are keeping up the scholastic standards and, in many cases, raising them from pre-war standards. That is fairly good evidence thai the ex-CI is going to school for a purpose. The loneliness, misery and boredom of the service set men to thinking, probably because they had little else to do. Even though much of this thinking Was a kind of act of desperation, out of it they evolved an attitude toward life and the world in general and their own place in the scheme of things. Perhaps some of those attitudes were a little warped by the conditions of the lime, but they are beginning to have an effect on our national life even now. Our local and national political events show it. Our schools certainly show it. This is the thing which must be recognized: The ex-service-men do not intend to take a back seat any more. They were uprooted to fight a war in which they had no part in making. Now they Want to know how it all happened and how best to prevent it happening again. Many of them hope to find a few of the answers in school.

New Scribes Join Staff The staff of the WWCollegian has been enlarged considerably this quarter, with seventeen students signing up for work as cub reporters. According to Mrs. Burnet, publications adviser, this is the largest staff since 1940, and should produce some promising young writers for future Collegian issues. Those reporting for the fall quarter are the following: Jerry Wad-dell, June Penn, Beatrice Funk, Doris Montgomery, Esther Foster, Jahn Fallis, Janet Siegrist, Gordon Baker, J. E. Holtzheimer, Vern Matthews, Dan Northentt, Bernice Smith, Richard Burrell, William Gnadt, Ava McArthur, Gloria Win-nem, Stewart Petric. Besides the cubs; there will be the regular staff members plus other special writers. The editorial council composed of ex-Collegian staff members will continue to act as advisory group. A fall party for the staff is being planned, but as yet the date has note been definitely decided upon. Klipsun Gets Talent Applicants for the Klipsun staff reached the high count of 27 this week as talented students made final registration for their Monday meetings. Only 5 students applied who had no experience, while the majority were editors and assistant editors in their high school days. As yet' the breakdown on positions filled at last weeks meeting has not been announced: Faculty Poses As the year bo lt;k speeds ahead to meet the first dead line with the engraver, the Klipsun photographer was busy this week taking action shots of the faculty. Freshmen and sophomore pictures were completed yesterday, while juniors and seniors still have two weeks before Yeager's Studio make their last prints. Enrollment Highest In Six Years As .Newcomers Arrive Dr. W, W. Haggard has announced that the enrollment now at WWC has reached 885 students and is expected to surpass the 900 mark by the first of the week. This is an increase of 160 per cent over last year. There are to date 555 men stud e n t s enrolled of whom 445 are veterans. The returning veteran is realizing the need of education in his future life. WOMEN OUTNUMBERED The men students outnumber the women students by approximately 225. This is quite a change, as during the war the women students outnumbered the men about three to one. With the entering class of freshmen there are more registered for non-diploma courses than diploma students.

ROBERT T. HAUGEN Photographer JUNE WHITE Business Manager RUTH A. BURNET Publications Adviser oditoliali BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE We realize there are many traditions and customs of col-legejife that take a while-to engrain themselves upon the daily' living habits of new students. The first week of school included some indoctrination courses explaining rules, regulations and customs deemed most essential to enable new students to adapt themselves to the challenges of college life If each student understands and remembers these regulations, traditions and customs, life on the campus will run more smoothly. Therefore, before too many new students break too many customs, etc., too many times, we think it an opportune time to set some people straight. -INNOCENCE IS ONE EXCUSE To most of the older students, there are several traditions or customs that have been repeatedly, shockingly and probably unwittingly violated. The violators have been, to the best of our knowledge, mostly freshman and recent transfer students. This accusation may sound rather harsh, but nevertheless it is sadly true. • • ARE YOU "CAMPUS CONSCIOUS"? .Several upper-classmen have come to us during the past few da.ys'.and asked'us if the Collegian would try to make our new students "'Campus Conscious". By becoming "Campus Conscious", these older students are referring to the fact that WWC's campus is. famous as one of the most beautiful in the state of Washington . . .Our campus is beautiful and we of the Collegian staff intend to see that it is kept that way. COW PATHS AND POCK MARKS During the past two weeks the tantilizing grandeur of our formerly well-kept campus has been pocked by ugly blobs of white notebook paper, assorted, colored candy wrappers, carelessly crumpled, empty cigarette wrappers and various other eye-soreish chunks of debris. You've noticed the situation, too, haven't you!. As if these pig-penish antiques aren't enough, we've also noticed several students tromping nonchalantly across the well-kept lawns—like a herd of turtles. What do you thing sidewalks are for? Mr. George Dack and his crew of gardeners work long hours trying to keep our campus the scenic spot it has been throughout all the years. There are almost five acres of lawn to be mowed, not to include the miles of boarders to edge, trees and hedges to trim and flower beds to keep free from weeds. Sounds like a job, doesn't it? It is too. Mr. Dack and his crew are still doing a superb job of keeping our campus beautiful, but remember, their responsibility is gardening not acting as a "policing up detail." IT TAKES SO LITTLE EFFORT It's your responsibility to keep our campus free from unsightly blotches of paper. It doesn't require much effort on your part. If you have a spare piece of paper, stuff it in your pocket while you are on the campus. Wait until you come to a waste basket or garbage can before discarding your odd pieces of paper. If you smoke "G.I." your butts. You vets should well remember that trick. If you are in a hurry, walk a little faster—no short cuts across the lawn—KEEP OFF THE GRASS. It requires so little effort on the part of each student to keep our campus both clean and beautiful. But remember it does require EACH STUDENT to do his part. Let's keep WWC's campus—your campus—a beauty spot among the colleges of the state. ARE YOU HAVING TROUBLE? One of the biggest grievances of students at WWC already this quarter is the parking lot situation. Each day the mass of cars jockeying for a place to park presents a pathetic sight. Locked bumpers, scraped and dented fenders, not to mention frayed tempers, do not add to a neighborly spirit among our student drivers. It is hoped that some plan for orderly parking can be ar-ranged'soon. We shudder just contemplating the traffic jams that will form when basketball season rolls around. Let's hope, the nights' that games are scheduled are clear ones. It's a long hike from Garden street bus stop to the gym. Incidentally, one parking spot that still has a few vacancies is the section of the Normal Drive south of the gym. This section has recently been graveled. - NOW!...

It is WWC's parking, lot Photo—Bob Haugen Looking for a parking spot, Bub? Well, that's tough. No, you can't squeeze in there—you might as well back up and start over again. Time was, though, when this place looked like Main street in Ferndale on a Sunday night.'Now it is as crowded, as theNRegistrar's Office on the first day of school. Last year the bulk of the cars usually paralleled the library. There was always Dan Walker's convertible zooming up behind the main building to the back door of the lounge. Now you can drive your Model "T" up here and—if—you find a parking spacey your junk heap wouldn't even be noticed. New cars certainly don't dominate the scene, but the majority of jalopies do appear to be in fairly good condition. What a place fora hamburger jernt or a gas station. Wonder if Sehome Hill will feel the effect of this new car boom. Hmmm, maybe now the city will improve the road up there. Cars and more cars. Oh, well! Maybe now it won't be so hard to hitch a ride down town — F. C. £ettln lt;j Ojjjj £(eam The following artcile was received from a student of WWC. This is the first such article of constructive criticism to appear hi the'Collegian this year. The Collegian will print any article of constructive criticism which is of interest to students. Are you in favor of a bunch of pictures of your classmates or would you rather have a nice cap and gown set of pictures. It isn't every year one gets to be a senior and has the chance to sport the badge of graduating. Don't let us give that up! If any kind of a picture is alright with you, don't say anything . . . if you want the good old emblem of your senior year . . . say something where it will do the most good. Make it cap and gown or just forget calling it the senior class. How about a class vote on this subject! This isn't a high school senior class. This is a college graduating class!

The lineup for this quarter includes Prank Iraola, Joe Borick, Bob Baylor, Jim Pill, Bill Myer, Frank and Larry Gayda, all from Hoquiam. Granite Palls and Seattle tie for second place in the enrollment race. Granite Falls is represented by three scholarship students: Russ Skidmore, Vern Peters and Jack Mitchell. Seattle is represented by three students (non-scholarship): Jim" Gilroy, Jack Francis and Don Taylor. Friday Harbor sent two aspiring lads, Jim Loring and Chuck McRae, in from the islands for a higher education, while Bucoda (Where's that) Washington, sent up their only male of college age, Ken Haller. Hailing from Maple Falls is Harlen Kelly, from Winslow comes Laverne Brockmier, and from Everson, Jim (Jug-haid) Miracle Don (four point) Brown is back from Bremerton, and Jim (one point) Erickson has also returned. Woodland's Jack Driver and Wendel Kugle, who hails from the town wtih the funny Indian name, have both returned to their quarters in the basement. Foreigners from out of state include Herb (Iowa's a great state) Witt, and Jack (Oregon's my home) Kelly. V V. EDENS HALL Pajamas and pincurls were the predominating style as girls from the dorm trooped into the Blue Room Tuesday evening for their first house meeting of the year. Jeanne Landers, president, took charge, and explained the rules and regulations governing Edens Hall. A howl of protest was heard from the freshmen when it was announced that the 7:30 retirement plan would be ..'in effect for the.whole, year, instead of just the first quarter? It was also duly "noted that the new fire bell sounds like a model "T" horn. Plans were discussed and committees announced for the forthcoming tolo to be held October 25th in the dining room of Edens Hall. New officers for the coming year are: Vice-president, Gerry Woodward; secretary-treasurer, Pat Temperley; social chaiman, Pedie Hyatt; and house reporter, Dorris Montgomery. As to the lighter side of life, if you notice Lee Thomas becoming but a shadow of her former self, it's because she makes so many trips to the kitchen while waiting on the boys table that she seldom has time to eat. V V HARBORVIEW Amid the tangle of extension cords and the usual turmoil of opening week our housemother still found time to serve ice cream smothered with that deluxe Elwell sauce at our first house meeting of the year. House mothers like Mrs. Elwell are a priceless commodity these days! With such an encouraging beginning, we face the year with Corky Urfer as house prexy, Barry Stockton as vice-president, and June Danielson as social chairman. Frosh of Harborview who have been in the limelight are Dolly McArthur who swung a wicked foot at the newcomers mixer; June Danielson, who turned on his "best welcome to WWCE technique", was a trifle perturbed to discover that the one student being welcomed was a long time resident of our fair city and incidfntly son of the president of WWC. The frosh boner of the week was pulled by Lynn Shannon and Pauline Roser who came home the other night proudly bearing that evening edition of the Bellingham Herald. Quoth Lynn, "Somebody accidently dropped this on the library steps." And where else would the paper boy be apt to deliver the Library Paper! Virginia Zanassi who arrived late on Sunday upheld the standards set by the other freshmen of the house by also being in the top group of the English Usage Test. We have high hopes that this will counteract the influence of the upperclassmen, namely Stockton, Urfer, Lundeen, Pierce, and Wernstedt! V V SENIOR HALL On Monday night, Senior Hall has its first house meeting to elect officers for the forthcoming year. Pat Castle was elected president and Eleanor Wilbanks, vice-president. Other officers include Jo Knowles as secretary-treasurer, and June Penn as social chairman. Several suggestions were forwarded during the meeting, one of them being a scrap book. Artistically inclined Phyllis Armstrong will be in charge of this venture. It should prove interesting to see what the Senior Hall class of '56 will think of their long departed alumni. Tuesday was a red letter day for the girls at 1201 Garden street, when the first meals were provided. For most of us with nine o'clock classes, breakfast at the hall meant an extra half hour's beauty sleep. V V DANIELS HALL There was a big political shakeup at the house Monday night, and the dirty dozen party beat out the upper crust by a landslide. Johnny Terry is our new president, and Les Winders, shifty little Vik. halfback, is the vice-president and social chairman. Hal Partlow is again the man behind the typewriter as house reporter. Daniels will have a couple of basketball teams in this year's intramural basketball league, and a couple of Smiths named Stub and Gordon were elected captains of these outfits . . . If you think women don't know anything about football just drop around and let Amber tell you the good and bad moves of last Saturday's game . . . Amber is always trying to get the boys to go to bed-early and to get up eary, but George Yonlick says, "Early to bed, early to rise and your girl goes out with other guys." . . . Not that there's a meat shortage or anything but we had "Leg of Nuttin" for^chow last night . . . Mel Lindbloom swallowed two choppers in last weeks game and the Dr. told him to cough up twenty bucks . . . Scoop of the month: Les Winders, that flashy "cowboy" halfback is not married and is not contemplating same. In other words he is available, so take it easy, girls, and don't get hurt in the rush . . . Well, troops so-long for this week . . . keep your fingers crossed until after that UBC game tomorrow . . . Cal says, "A flea never worries as he knows he is going to the dogs." V V BUSHNELL'S Our house elections, which were held last Tuesday night, really satisfied everyone in the house. Those elected were: Gorge Jurgens, president; Jim Price,, vice-president; Jay Lapp, secretary-treasurer (treasurer that is), was also elected captain of the Bushnell bowling team. The tentative list of howlers is as follows: Jim Price, Bill Burton, Mick Smith, Walt Eddy, Johnny Pope, and Bernie Peterson. There seems to be quite a contest going on around school right now and Bushnell's are entering their sure to win song queen, Jay Lapp. May the best man win, eh Jay? Visitors at the old bungalow would have found it quite vacant Monday night; all of the fellows were downtown sight-seeing (as it were). Ronnie Patten and his charming little Edenite, Sharon Wallis, took an. interesting trip to the home of her parents Sunday. Did you talk to her father, Ron? As a result of Bernie Peterson's Vancouver campaign, WWC will receive tumultuous cheers from residents of that fair city at Saturday's game. Best of luck team!

Clutching a. 7 to 6 win tightly to their respective, bosoms, Coach Chuck Lappenbusch and his 1946 football edition proved themselves under fire Saturday night at Battersby field, against the College of Puget Sound of Tacoma. Heavy were the' hearts down Tacoma way where the CPS Loggers were still trying to figure out how WWC's Vikings could spot them a gift touchdown, only to come back.in the dying moments of the game to win the thriller. Some of our most loyal fans could almost sense a Viking debacle as the game got under way. The Loggers had a 6-0 lead, and ,were driving hard for what looked very much like another one. Suddenly the boys in blue and white seemed to sense there was a football game going on. Tightening up when it really counted, they uncorked some very fine defensive plays; as well- as offensive, thus averting heart failure from some of their loyal fans in the WWC section. This opening victory ended a four year football famine at WWC, and the large colorful crowd saw a real battle quite in keeping with the occasion. Patrick, CPS's fiery coach, couldni see things eye to eye with the game officials; as a consequence he tripped the light fantastic time and again out to where he could best argue with the umps. He never did get in the last word. INJURIES . . . It seemed for a time as if Lappy's boys would wear themselves down to the water boy, and a couple of peanut vendors, so often did the injuries- come up. But Saturday afternoons tussle with TJ.B.C. will find only two stalwarts not in top condition. Big Moose Zurline is one question mark with a taped up side, and although he won't be in first class shape, he may play. Mel Lindbloom, who had some teeth get in the way of a tackier, was the other injury. The probable owner of a couple new ivories, he is none the worse for wear. • RUMORS (NOT BOARDERS) . . . Saturday afternoons get together with the University of British Columbia Thunderbolts will find WWC locking horns with them at 2:00 p. m., instead of 2:30, as the schedule states. Don't sell IJ.B.C. short, even though they were beaten 26 to 13 by the Willamette Bearcats. Willamette is usually the king pin of the Northwest League, and appears to have another fine club. However, Coach Chuck Lappenbusch has his charges set for U.B.C., and the Vikings should scamper home the winner after a tough set-to. According to Lappy the spin formation used by the Viks Saturday night Wasn't working to perfection, and a new more spectacular shift is in store for the U.B.C. engagement. These razzle-dazzle plays are crowd pleasers as well as substantial ground, gainers. It looked good to see Lappy pacing back and forth in front of the football bench again. Those towers of strength out there on the coaching line are big Bill McDonald, and Norm Nelson. Another rumor says that very soon we will have two feminine yell leaders. Twins, that is and very lovely ones too. The boys did very well on Saturday night and could have had just a wee bit more cooperation. JUST GABBING . . . Before game time a ten year old in front of our plush lined box seat, faded back to the players bench and threw a hot dog far up into the stands, where another young lad calmly caught it, took a bite, thereupon lobbing it back to its owner, who very deftly caught it again, and walked away. Just a prevue of the passing game to come, huh? Our dependable Dr. Cedarstrom keeping in shape for coming golf wars, by handing out innumerable programs at the entrance door. • WINCO STANDINGS . . . Pacific Lutheran and Central Washington are at the top of the heap by jumping the gun on the Viks and Eastern Washington, who have yet to play a conference tUt. The Lutes trampled St. Martin's, while Central Washington subdued Whitworth 21-7. The atomic bomb experiment will take second place to the thud which occurs when the Viks 235 pound Howard Breivik and Pacific Lutherans 260 pound Don D'Andrea collide on the gridiron. Overhead was the assertion that Byrron Grubb booted eighteen out of eighteen between the uprights during a practice session. His was the educated toe which iced the CPS go for the Viks. The Washington Husky was muzzled, thrown in the boneyard, and finally picked up by the dog catcher Saturday as the Uclans trampled them 39 to 13. The UW team is a good one, it's just that the Californians are high above the field this year. Comes word from Cheney that the Savages have beaten the North Idaho Teachers by a 13 to 0 score. Easterns home coming game is October 26, when they will entertain Coach Lapp and the boys. Cheney's coach is W. B. (Red) Reese, and he has a couple of stars in Thropp and Wilson at right half and left half, respectively. EXTRA NOTES . . . Big Jim Sanford isn't playing football this year. Conducting an experiment of his own, Jim is paying his own way through college this year, thus saving his GI eligibility for graduate work. Thus he's a busy man. By the way did you know that Les Smith averaged 15 yards a try in the four times he packed the spheroid Saturday evening? Wade gained 25 yards in two tries. As an added attraction for the boys, the Sandison's Studio announce that they are giving one free portrait to the captain of Saturday's winning team. lit this case Zurline of WWC collects. The winning teams coach of the game on the 19th will also get a free portrait. This will be the Viking-Cheney Savage fracas. With CPS on the Bellingham five yard line, and with fourth down coming up, the Loggers passed into the end zone. Interference was ruled against the offensive team. The penalty was 15 yards, plus loss of down, which gave the Viks the ball on then-own 20. Hope this clears up any misunderstanding about this play. Tommy Gaffney is back in school, and we hope to have him scribbling out a few stories for the sports page next week. See you all at the WWC at UBC game tomorrow afternoon. LATE FLASHES According to the Mobil Oil football predictor, Sam Hayes, the Viks are favored to win by three touchdowns over UBC. A new addition to the football squad is Wjllard Hammer former Washington State College guard. THE PASTIME Bellingham's Most Splendidly Appointed Cafe EARL MCLAUGHLIN . . FRED MCGINNIS JIM YELTON 1217 Cornwall 982—Phones—163 Grubb's Boot Turns Tide Coming from behind in the last quarter, the WWC Vikings finally pushed over the touchdown that tied CPS and sure-footed Byron Grubb kicked the extra point for the deciding point of the game. In the first period WWC kicked off to the Loggers and after the exchange of punts the Vikings were forced tp kick from their own 20. A bad pass from center went over the head of Les Winders into the end zone where Warren Greedy, of CPS, fell on the ball putting College of Puget Sound out in front 6-0. The try for extra point was partially blocked and CPS led 6-0. A blocked kick from the toe of Frank Gayda set 'up a possible threat for the Loggers but after moving down to the Vikings 4 a pass from Orleum to Keyes was ruled as offensive interference arid the ball was taken out to the WWC 20 yard stripe, first and 10 for the Vikings. For the remainder of the game the WWC team was not in any serious trouble. GAME BREAK The big break of the game came when Mel Lindbloom, freshman back from Sedro-Woolley, intercepted Vic Martineau's pass on the Vikings 43. After being halted after two tries at the CPS line the Vikings were forced to kick. Frank Gayda, the man who proved to be a god man to have around, then kicked out of bounds in CPS coffin corner on the 10 yard stripe. On the first play the Loggers went into punt formation. The kick was taken on the 46 yard line by Les Smith who lugged it back to the CPS 31 yard stripe. On the next play Les Smith on a quarterback sneak went all the way to the 10 yard line. From here Gayda carried to the 3 on an off-tackle smash. After Les Smith was stopped cold at tne line of scrimmage, Gayda ran far to the right as if to run and flipped a pass to Bob Jewell standing over the goal line. GRUBB CONVERTS At this point Gayda was replaced by Byron Grubb, and with Les Smith holding, Byron split the uprights for that all important extra point. WWC now kicked off to the Loggers who brought it back to then-own 36 yard stripe. Four times Woods faded back to throw a pass and each time it fell incomplete. The Vikings then took over and this is where the ball game ended. Everyone will agree t h a t Les Smith was the player of the evening. He mixed his plays well at quarter and did a magnificent job at blocking. Gayda was very hard to stop along with Moose Zurline and Les Winders. In the line Bill Brown seemed to be the standout but there were many more such as Weisen-burger, Clayton, Peterson and Breivik. Halftime entertainment was furnished by Bellingham's own Albert J. Hamilton Post No. 7 drum and bugle corp, winners of the state American Legion championship at their recent convention.

With theproposed plans now in near-final form the way is paved for final application to the FHHA for the $475,000loan needed to begin construction of the building. The committee hopes to let bids in early summer,with construction beginning in the fall. The plans, as submitted to the committee, provide for threefloors in a modern-design building, to be constructed on the corner block of Garden Park Drive and HighStreet. (See plan below) THE BASEMENT FLOOR WILL CONTAIN publications offices for the Collegian and Klipsun, a work-room, a barber shop, a large recreation room (for table tennis and billiards) and adarkroom. The Lounge, food service and coffee shop occupy the vast majority of the main floor area,which opens to the main entrance to the building. On the second floor are found all student body offices,a BOC conference room and other offices and storage space. The committee met Wednesday nightin the student center and made suggestions for revisions in the plans, changing office areas, switchingsome offices, and making general recommendations for improvements. The plans were also submitted and explained to the Board of Control which will soon have to approve them before any definite actioncan be taken. Floor plans and overall drawings of the building will be on display in the main hall nextweek. The SUB committee has also scheduled an open meeting for April 11, at 4 p.m. in the StudentCenter, at which all students will be welcome to express their views on the plans, and any proteststhey have.

(Chuck Stutz Photo) O K I N G OVER Bindon and Jones'proposed Student Union plans before they leave for Salt Lake City, are Doug Smith and Dr. Merle Kuder. Smith, chairman of the Student Union Committee. In an interview yesterday, Doug Smith, who will berepresenting the student body, stated that it is possible that a likely candidate will return to Western with he and Dr. Kuder for recommendation of hiring. The conference, convening in Salt Lake City,March 31-April 4, is set up to include discussions of planning and managing student union buildings.W e s t e r n ' s representatives will be able to discuss tentative building plans with experiencedunion managers. As tentatively set up, the new staff member's main duty would be to co-ordinate thestudent co-cur-ricular program, excluding athletics. "Co-curricular" is used rather than "extra-curricular"to designate the place of activities outside of the classroom in the total education program. It signifies acloser relationship between the two types of activities in student growth. CANDIDATES FOR THEPOSITION are professionally trained in group leadership and • student personnel work. In addition they should have previous experience in guidance work, business management and a record of activeparticipation in extra-curricular activities as an \ undergraduate. ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1957, March 29 - Page 2 ---------- Page 2 WESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAN March 29, 1957 $593 to Forensics: BOC Spends $1000 OVER" $1,000 AND A VOTE OF CONFIDENCE were given out by the Board of Control at its firstmeeting of Spring quarter Wednesday night. After a delay of over three weeks, during which their request was debated and referred to committee twice for recommendation, the Forensic Department received$593 to take four people to the National Pi Kappa Delta Tournament in Brookings, South Dakota, duringApril 12-21. Finance Chairman Dave Van Bronkhorst pointed out that the department had spent only$1,347 of $1,869 budgeted. The $593 balance would be used for a forthcoming Montana Statetournament, but the group would need $593 more to attend the national tourney. "I know there are a lot of people who deserve to go a lot of places," member Gail Tuin-inga objected, "but I can't help butwonder if we're not over-allotting our budget. What good is this going to be to the entire studentbody—$600 of their money?" DR. KEITH MURRAY ANSWERED the question, stating that "thereare many instances where the caliber of an institution is gauged on the quality of its Forensic group.You may believe this or not," he added, "but the quality of a good deal of your college rating is based onwhat your Forensics does." The Board passed the appropriation. Dr. Merle Kuder requested to know ifthe Board was interested in giving help ($450 worth) in obtaining mechanical photo machines in orderto place photos on activity tickets. This would eliminate the use of student tickets by non-students, he explained by letter. The Board voted Dr. Kuder a "vote of confidence in his project." The Board also .. . GAVE $140 TO MODERN DANCE CLUB to attend a modern dance convention in Pullman. GAVE$168 TO THE STUDENT UNION Committee to send a student delegate to a national student unionmanager conference at the University of Utah in Salt Lake.

A radicaldeparture in the accepted manner of imprisoning: convicted criminals was instituted at Chino in1940 with Scudder superintending. He related the fascinating- story of a prison-without-bars in hisbook "Prisoners Are People." This was later made into a motion picture called "Unchained." Chino iswhat is called a "minimum- security institution." No one is locked up; guards carry neither guns norbilly-clubs. Inmates are treated as ordinary human beings who have made a mistake. Each prisoner isgiven a great deal of trust and responsibility. His family is permitted to visit him and picnic with him onSundays. Each inmate must make up his own mind whether to try to escape from this open institution. IN 15 YEARS THERE WERE only two cases of violence at the Chino institution. Chino has beenstudied by penologists from many countries. Scudder's first experience in the correction field was of avery different sort, at the Washington State Reformatory in 1914. There he learned about "maximumsecurity" and the use of bloodhounds on escapees. He himself had one hair-raising experience whenthe bloodhounds picked up his trail instead of the prisoner's and ran him down. "I know how it feelsto be hunted," he says.

One of theitems on the agenda Wednesday was a request for $600 from the Forensics department for attendanceat 'the national Kappa Delta Pi conference this spring. One of the questions asked was what benefitswould be derived for the school from sending just four people to a speech convention. The answer wasprovided by Dr. Murray: the reputation of an institution like Western depends heavily upon the records of its f o r e n s i c department. Sounds funny, but it's true.

According to the various coaches, ineligibility and loss of key menthrough graduation have put Western on the unpredictable level. They- do look for a possible duplication of last spring's performances. Spring home activities open this Monday with College of Puget Soundbringing their golf squad here. Ray Ciszek lost four strong candidates from his cinder squad throughgrades. This, combined with graduation losses, will make it tough for the trackmen to repeat theirsecond place conference finish of last season. Ted Whan, holder of the conference and regional 440record, is gone as is Jim Hall, Western's number one pole-vaulter last year. Gary Phillips and DickKol-kana are back for the sprints while Jack'Thompson will tackle the job of taking Hall's place in thepole vault. Ciszek has more good freshman prospects in Sam Martin, John Cosco, and Roger Granger.Martin came within .8 seconds of the school record in the low hurdles at the UM meet.

Hubbard debuted in his baseball post last spring. His squad lost the division title by an 8-7 score in the playoff game with CPS. In 1955 Western was conference champion.

Clubs wishing- to send delegatesto conventions would receive 25% of their travel expenses from the ASB, thus regularizing the club policy in relation to student finance.

May 13, 1960WESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAN Page 3 ---------- Collegian - 1960 May 13 - Page 4 ---------- INSURANCE A Full Time Nurse By ED VADSET The serene sight of a nice looking nurse, clean sheets and no bill from the doctor can be yours for only $6.50 a quarter next fall. Western's new insuranceprogram will give the students all this and much more. We era presently the only school in theNorthwest that does not have over all benefits. United Pacific is the company which will handle thisnew program that will include up to $300 for surgery. In case of sickness the daily hospital rate of $20a day for thirty days will be paid. An additional service to the above is $150 for each sickness formedicine and other incidentals. The policy, if paid for during the three school quarters will cover anindividual for the summer. Bob Burgoyne, Ron Saltis, Larry Ernst, and Judy Runnels form theLegislative Insurance Committee. Dr. Kuder and Dean McDonald have helped in the investigation of this program'. The most important part of the program for the college student who can't go to thedoctors: he will get a full time nurse to take care of him until he is well. DR. KANGIIY RETIRES Man isUltimately Good "I have reasonable evidence that God exists and I have never had any reason to doubtthat man is ultimately good and worth while." Dr. Lucy Kangley was not speaking on the Faculty Speaks Series and she was not presenting a scientific raper. But after thirty-one years at Western, she waspreparing to leave with the same philosophy that thousands of students have felt, though not alwaysheard, in her classrooms. Since 1928 her stay at Western has been interrupted only by the completion of a do-torate at Columbia. Other than that, she has gained the impression that "There is no placebetter than right here . . . I have enjoyed every moment of it." Many of her students in literature have feltthe same about her classes, where her complete recall of authors' lives, novels and literary characters,interlaced with her own travels and experiences, have become a trademark. Having traveledconsiderably in literature and in reality, she speaks as if equally at home on both the continents ofEurope and America. She speaks of England as "delightful," but says she is also devoted to France and Italy, "especially the Riviera." English majors have found that she not only recalls clearly the details ofhundreds of books, but has visited many of the locales they describe. During the opening of theSecond World War, she found herself in Europe, where she stayed and studied at Cambridge and theUniversity of London. It may be because of the travel that her descriptions of characters and localeseem so DR. LUCY KANGLEY realistic, but in giving her views on literature she revealed what sheconsidered a significant approach. "I can identify myself with almost any character," she said."When reading fiction it is necessary that a person have complete identification for the time being, andthen he can move on to critical sources." A Course in Bad Literature The English novel, the Russiannovel and poetry are the courses she has considered most enjoyable while teaching at the college.This was of little surprise, but when she claimed that she would have liked to teach a course in "badliterature" the point was almost as revealing as a comment on life as the philosophy. "If you reallywant to know something about an era," Dr. Kangley said, turn not to the classics but to the third-ratematerial. The person who is of the moment thinks in terms of the moment." For the moment the ladyEnglish professor with the total recall is still teaching the English novel and modern literature. In Juneshe will ret're, and she plans to stay in Bellingham the majority of the time, with summers on PugetSound near Seattle. There are a lot of philosophies o: life running wild on the Western campus, butmany students have not missed the point that Dr. Lucy Kangley believes "man is ultimately good andworthwhile." That, too, has been a point to remember about her classes. DEMOCRATS Roselliniobviously running Obviously running for a second term and drawing an unexpectedly large audience,Governor Albert Rosellini praised Washington state and his own administration in a 10 a.m.appearance before Western students in the College Auditorium last Friday. Citing the advantages ofWashington over other states, and the deeds accomplished during his own term of of [ice, the state'schief executive pointed to Washington's industrial climate, tax structure, labor force, highways, care for the needy and legislative support of education, as stars in its crown. Fairer than the Present TaxWhile the governor himself prefers a graduated net income tax, because "it is a fairer tax than the present regressive sales tax," he nevertheless concluded that the present structure is conducive to theattraction of new industry, which has become one of the D e m o c r a t i c administration's main saleslines for the next gubernatorial election. Washington citizens pay fewer taxes per capita, per income,than any of the 13 Western states, he said. Then he added, "I don't like it (the sales tax), but as long aswe have it, two-thirds of a cent doesn't seem too much to pay for the extra services we added in 1957and 1959." These extra services, he explained, were 79 million dollars for education and 19 million forstate institutions. Rosellini emphasized that he Relieves education must have top priority in the stateand pointed to raises in teachers salaries by the 1957 and 1959 legislatures. He also went on record asfavoring continued development of the state colleges and the two state universities, supporting federalaid to education as a means of raising further teachers' salaries and building constructionthroughout the nation. Page 4 WESTERN WAsSHINGTON COLLEGIAN May 13, 1960 ---------- Collegian - 1960 May 13 - Page 5 ---------- 9w ^w w svf_/e \_^/ \_y ovv Having received the "National Industrial Development Award" for effortsin attracting new industry to the state, he spent considerable time on emphasizing the merits ofattracting industry in order to create new jobs. He praised the federal aid highway program, sayingWashington ranks No. 1 in it, and urged students to do personal research into the state's existingtax advantages, declaring that Washington's news media, one group he did not praise, do not alwaysreport the "true picture." Concluding, he again pointed to his administration's work by emphasizingthat the last Republican administration left him with a 30 million dollar deficit, which he has reduced toapproximately 20 million. He blamed the Eisenhower administration's tight-money policies for not beingable to further reduce the debt. Then Rosellini joined students in the Union building for personal talks.The chief executive had been sponsored on the campus by Western's Young Democratic Club,members of which emphasized, "it's not often the govenor of the state visits the campus."LEGISLATURE Slander and Alleged Irregularities By JUDY BORMAN The mounting suspense that has characterized the Legislature in the last four weeks was broken in a matter of minutes last week asHoward DeWitt, present editor of the Collegian, withdrew his application for the position of Collegianeditor for next year. After President Gustavson announced that the editorship would be consideredearly in the course of the Legislature meeting, due to a request by Collegian adviser Jens Hansen,events followed swiftly. Secretary Barbara Wise read two letters from the Faculty Committee onStudent Publications stating that, after investigating the charges that DeWitt had misappropriatedCollegian funds, they found no evidence of this and decided to take no official action. DeWitt promptly,but briefly, stated that he wished to withdraw his amplication, because of the slander against his name and the "alleged irregularities." Muffed Things Up Nicely This left but one applicant for the position,Doug Simpson. Leo Dodd made chastizing comments to the effect that it was fortunate that onecandidate remained, since certain individuals had muffed things up nicely by causing a qualifiedcandidate to withdraw. Bob Brown turned to DeWitt and asked, "Is there any chance you mightreconsider?" to which DeWitt answered, "No." A motion was then made and carried that Simpson beaccepted as the 1960-61 Collegian editor. Other appointments made during the meeting were: GaryOdegaard, one quarter position on the Legislature; Judy Borman, summer Collegian editor; Wayne H.Ehlers, Summer Collegian business manager; and Mr. Hil-ler, Mrs. Lee, Dr. Cohen and Mr. Gerhard, nominees for the position of freshman class adviser, the final selection to be made by PresidentJarrett. A list of persons eligible for basketball WAYNE H. EHLER'S Summer Business Managerawards was' accepted, subject to approval of grade point. Bob Burgoyne and Ron Saltis came forthwith an Insurance Committee report, stating that the current student insurance policy is inadequate,and that bids had been accepted for a new policy. They said the most promising was a bid made byUnited Pacific, a company which offers 24- May 13, 1960 WESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAN hourcoverage of accidents, surgery, sickness and health, office calls, medical aid, etc., for $6.55 perquarter, per student, a price which Burgoyne called "really fabulous."

Then The Lesson and The BaldSoprano should appeal to you. These plays are full of opportunities for the audience to identify its ownanecdotes with Chuck Petzold's portrayal of a frustrated professor (if the shoe fits wear it) and withPeg Plowman's portrayal of a student (and the majority of this campus . . . amen!) Remarkably DifficultThese plays are remarkably difficult for the actor, and the casts have done an exceptional job. It is onedifficulty to participate in the great classics, such as those of Ibsen, O'Neill, Williams, and Chekhov,but even the most immature of amateurs will have some identification with the basic emotions of thecharacters in these plays; whereas the emotions of the characters in the two Ionesco plays are quiteforeign to the actor. This is especially true in the Bald Soprano. The traditional American theatre alsotends to express its humor through broad lines of hilarity resulting in guffawing belly laughs from theaudience. Ionesco wasn't written for belly laughs, but for an undercurrent of rippling laughter throughoutboth plays. This is typically characteristic of European or Continental theatre. The Lesson and TheBald Soprano were both selected for several reasons. They have been played together often, for thechange of pace between them. HAMILTON AND PAYNTER Long pregnant pauses, just bejore breakinginto the gallop . . . The Bald Soprano, for instance, moves from rhythm to rhythm and pace to pace. Itconstantly throws the audience off balance with long pregnant pauses before it takes off in a gallop,ending NANCY SMITH "I'm the Maid." again in a stilted pause.

The set,designed by Mark Flanders, is not realistic but successfully achieves the effect of an English home ina French flat. The costumes are vaguely of the Empire period in The Bald Soprano, and through thisvagueness express a timelessness and a universality about the plays. In tune then, with the tone ofthe plays, the special effects are important in establishing the mood, rather than a specific place orperiod. A Special Mood-setting Effect Another special mood-setting effect for these productions is thetheatre art exhibit from the Finnish Embassy. Included in this exhibit are nearly forty photographs ofcharacters and scenes from the great plays of the world as dramatized by the Finnish Theatre.

PEOPLE Some Slight Tribute To the Editor of the Collegian: It is not often that I feel impelled to address a communication intended for publication in the Collegian to the Editor. But I trust that youwill not raise the issue of impropriety in such a communication from a member of the Faculty that dealswith a subject that students and Faculty are both concerned with. I merely wish by this letter to paysome slight tribute to and recognition of the services rendered to the College community by the lateMiss Eleanor Chesarek, who has been a colleague of mine and of most of the other members of thepresent Faculty for nearly three years. Perhaps my feeling about her death was enhanced by the factthat she shared my own interest in music, not to speak of the very pleasant personality that sherevealed on the few occasions that brought us together in sociable conversation. I believe that shewas highly regarded by many of her colleagues because of her professional competence. Were I aMilton, I should perhaps pay her the Meed of some melodious tear. Since I am only a teacher of English, I must content myself with plain prose. If it is true, as John Donne said, that "any man's deathdiminishes me, because I am involved in Mankind," the quotation is all the more applicable if"colleague" is substituted for "man." Arthur C. Hicks BLOSSOM TIME A Radiant Smile and Regal Walk A pretty dark-haired freshman was crowned first princess of the Bellingham: Blossom Time festivitieshere last week. Maureen Alexander, known to her fellow students as Sukey, is the girl who works at themain desk of the VU in the evenings. Tall and shapely, Sukey did well in the bathing suit section of theCoronation Ceremony as she walked before the capacity crowd of 2,000 in the Belling-ham Highauditorium last Thursday night. She was poised and sincere in the talent competition as she told theaudience why she had chosen social science as a career, but it was in the evening gown competitionthat she really took honors. Her radiant smile, regal walk and dark haired beauty created a lastingimpression on the audience and there was enthusiastic clapping from her classmates when her namewas called as one of the five finalists. Here the competition became keener, the judges' final decisiondepending upon the inpromptu answers each girl A FLOWERY FESTIVAL Hawaiian Blossom Time gave to two questions: "Why would you like to represent Bellingham as the I960 Blossom Time Queen?" and "When you look back on your experience as a queen contestant, what will you remember most, either good, bad , or humorous?" In answering the first question Sukey said, "I am fairly new to Bellinghamand at first I felt like anyone a thousand miles away from home would feel. But the people ofBellingham have been just wonderful. Nowhere else have I been made to feel so much at home so faraway from home, except at home." To the second question, she answered that people here have beenwonderfully helpful and friendly, and have gone out so enthusiastically for the Hawaiian theme ofBlossom Time, that she would be very proud to represent them as their Queen. Each of the five wereasked the questions and the judges marked their ballots, then retired to make their decision. Theminutes stretched on as they deliberated. Finally, a sealed white envelope was handed to last year'sQueen and the winners announced. Maureen Alexander, a Western student, had been selected asfirst princess, Blossom Time, 1960.

Under theBaton of Regier The major feature of the evening will be Howard Hanson's "Song of Democracy" inwhich the orchestra and the chorale will combine under the baton of Bernard W. Regier, Western'sdirector of choral activities. Howard Hanson, the composer, is head of the Eastman School of Music anddirector of the Rochester Symphony. He has conducted numerous performances of his work throughoutthe country since its completion in 1957. The text of the "Song of Democracy" consists of excerpts from two poems by Walt Whitmn. The first portion is a setting of the familiar "An Old Man's Thoughts ofSchool," while the latter part derives its lyrics from the ode, "Thou Mother with Thy Equal Brood."White's Works to be Performed Of special interest to Northwest residents will be the performance ofworks by Michael White, young composer-in-residence for the Public Schools of Seattle. Dr. FrankD'Andrea, head of the music department, will conduct the orchestra in White's "Prelude and Ostinato forStrong Orchestra." The Concert Chorale will sing three of his modern madrigals, "Take, Oh Take ThoseLips Away," "Love in Her Eyes Sits Playing" and "Where is Fancy Bred?" The first and last are settingsof William Shakespeare lyrics. White is assigned to the Seattle Public Schools under a programprovided by the Ford Foundation. He is one of twelve young American composers chosen to write musicfor the public schools of America. Born in Chicago in 1931, he has attended schools such as OberlinCollege, the University of Wisconsin, Chicago Musical College and the Julliard School of Music. Hetaught theory at Julliard for two years before coming to Seattle. He has won numerous prizes for hiscompositions and is at present working on music settings of passages from "The Diary of Anne Frank"and two operas. AVE MARIA Not. A Breath Crept Through the Rosy Air By STACY TUCKER It is earlymorning and though a sound is not heard one is* aware of a throbbing and pulsating that seems topermeate the atmosphere. Vanquished are the storms of Winter. The very life that they, for a time, hadsubdued has burst forth from its grave and carpeted the landscape with the color of life. Who among uscan claim such a degree of sophistication that this spectacle known as Spring does not arouse in him a subtle quality within his nature that is as fresh and beautiful as the world around him. During themonth of April occurs Easter, the festival in which the Christian w o r ld commemorates theresurrection of one who long ago overcame the pangs of death, and like the dormant life that risesin Spring, rose from the grave into a world of eternal life . . . a world which the Christian knows he, too,may some day inhabit when he likewise "overcomes the world/' As we move along in the days thatencompass Springtime we discover that another important religious event occurs in this season. May,the month of loveliness and beauty, is a most fitting time for special thoughts concerning the mother ofChrist . . . Mary. Her path is not one of intellectual rigor, nor it is one that requires hours and hours ofpreparation. It does require for some the task of removing hardness and scepticism from their nature. Formost, however, it is as easy as running to a mother with outstretched arms. Perhaps it is this subtle andinconceivable facility that makes many people unaware of Her graces. The thought of such a fresh andchildlike approach to religious endeavor seems strange to those who are convinced of their own merit.To them anything such as this concept of an eternal mother seems to be "doddering sentimentality."True, a child may reach Her side and yet she has inspired the greatest of artists and thinkers forcenturies. How often is it that through Her the most hardened and sceptical reach God. Perhaps it is that after a life of credulity and scepticism it is refreshing for them to abandon their fugue and embrace Herpure simple melody of love. Is this devotion idolatry? Is it unmerited? Surely Christ did not think so whenHe so often, as a child, ran into the protection of Her arms. Surely God did not think so when He chose Her out of all womanhood to be the vehicle through which to give the Christ to a world that so neededhim. Surely the angel knew of Her merit when he hailed Her "full of grace." Page 10 WESTERNWASHINGTON COLLEGIAN May 13, 1960 ---------- Collegian - 1960 May 13 - Page 11 ---------- Christ confirmed Her lofty station when from the cross He uttered, "Behold thy mother." It is still earlymorning and the beauties of spring are still around us. It is at times like this when we can join Lord Byron and say . . . ". . . Not a breath crept through the rosy air. Yet all the leaves seemed stirred with prayer.Ave Maria, 'tis the hour of love. Ave Maria, 'tis the hour of prayer. Ave Maria, may our spirits dare. Lookup to thine and to thy Son's above." Senate *?6ety $et a @6tutee By LEO DODD, Collegian ColumnistThe advent of spring quarter again finds the ASB Legislature with the unenvied task of handling and cutting an unbalanced budget. With $25,000 to chop it looks as if their session will be hot and heavy. Animproved system of working with this budget will no doubt cut many unnecessary hours from analready crowded schedule, but still, department heads will come before the Legislature in full force todefend their budgets to the limit. Ron Saltis, Junior class representative to the Legislature, has come upwith a possible solution to this pressing problem. He jokingly suggested that rather than cut a little bitfrom each individual budget and be faced with gripes from all departments, simply cut completely onedepartment and only have to worry about a single gripe. This might not be a bad idea after all. Eachdepartment could draw straws with a loser catching the unwanted booby-prize. Of course Ron, who is abasketball player, might change his mind if the athletic department were on the short end of the draw . . . An untimely blow to Western's already undermanned golf team was delivered with the withdrawalfrom school of Dave Ewart, number two man on the squad. Coupled with the ineligibility of four other golfhopefuls, the team looks as if they may be in for some lean days. This just may be the chance for all you weekend duffers to go out and earn your letter in a college sport. Remember, you can always tell yourkids you got that big "W" as the star quarterback on the football team . . .

Actually That Country's Delegate Plans are well under way for the High School Model United NationsAssembly to be held on Western's campus in February, 1961. The purpose of the conference is togive high school students a broader concept of the workings of the U.N. and a greater sense of theattempts to achieve world peace. Try to Think, Act and Vote Twenty high schools from Whatcom,Skagit, San Juan and Snohomish counties will participate in the event. Each school will represent anaverage of four countries with approximately eight delegates from each country. The students study their assigned country thoroughly before the conference begins, and during the assembly they try to think,act, and vote as if they were actually that country's delegation. The first day of the two-dayconvention will be spent in committee sessions where resolutions are presented to be considered.The three main committees are: the Political and Security Council, in charge of military affairs, topsecurity, disarmament, etc.; the Economic and Financial Committee, which deals mainly with foreign aid; and the Social, Cultural, and Humanitarian Committee. The second day is the General Assembly,where the nations mass in one convention to vote definitely on the resolutions considered the daybefore.

Pew future teachers, however, were present to learn that, "at the presentrate, one out of every ten children will need to go to a mental hospital sometime during his life because of severe mental illness." Faculty members found themselves showing movies to empty, MR. FREDDeBRULER Philosophy of Mental Health dark rooms, and moderators had difficulty findingdiscussions to lead. Not In A Position To Perceive Dr. Elvet Jones reported that only twenty-five students attended the conference on "Mental Health in the Public School Classroom," May 3. With the helpof Dr. Bruel Kingsley, Director of the Whatcom County Mental Health Clinic, Jones discussed "theproblems of a teacher in a classroom setting, and how he might anticipate these problems." WhileKingsley took the psychiatrist's approach, finding the causes for difficulties, Jones pointed out that "themajor job of the teacher is concerned with the child, and the most effective learning takes place whenthe child is emotionally secure." According to Harold Goltz, Director of Student Activities, Kingsley andJones did an excellent job of creating actual May 13, 1960 classroom conditions and tracing the history of the problem's growth. Dr. Jones was not surprised that more did not participate in the discussion."Stu^ dents don't have much interest in classroom mental health," said Jones, "simply because they are not in a position to perceive the issue's importance." Western's Unpreceiving and Disinterested What else did Western's "unperceiv-ing and disinterested" prospective educators miss? Tuesday, May 3,Dr. Maurice Free-hill, Mr. Fred DeBruIer, Dr. Charles Harwood, and Dr. William Hall considered"Mental Health and the College Student." Dr. Evelyn Mason and Barbara Smith, a psychiatric socialworker, discussed "Mental Health for Marriage" on Wednesday. Thursday, DeBruIer spoke about the"Philosophy of Mental Health," and Dr. Herbert Taylor and Richard Whittemore concluded the seriesasking "Is America Growing Soft?" They're Not Interested The Week's activities were planned byChairman Don Price with the help of Dr. Kuder, Goltz, and members of the Union Board. Price explainedthe program's poor turn out, saying, "It's the same old story. Most students feel that mental illnesshappens to the next guy, not them. Therefore, they're not DR. ELVET JONES 'Students are not in aposition to perceive the importance of Mental Health." interested." Dr. Kuder, Dean of Students,added, "those who attended the meetings greatly upgraded their understanding and appreciation of theproblem." John Schermerhom -probably summarized the feelings of most. "Although the meetingswere not reduced to standing room only, they were well worth the time of the people who came. It isdifficult to evaluate the program's success since this is a new area, and many are only vaguely aware ofthe issue. Perhaps, if more people were better- informed about mental health, they'd realize the needfor work in this area." In the modern classroom, it appears an apple a day won't keep the psychiatristaway.

Scarcely is there a hidden nook or cranny where onecan escape the steady hum of the compressor or the chink of the air drill. All around us, from 8 to 4, weare continually being reminded that we are in the race. Perhaps these are the sounds of growing pains.Our enrollment is increasing and our curriculum is changing to accommodate a larger, moreadvanced program. But are we growing out of proportion? Should there be a balance maintained between the number of buildings, students, and the areas available for relaxation and recreation. As long asthere is on-campus housing there should be sufficient on-campus recreation areas. May 13, 1960One need only to go out to the campus school field any week night at six and see the extent of theintramural baseball facilities. Our varsity baseball squad is required to travel to their practice areas incars and return in the same manner to shower or hold a "chalk talk." Better in 1933 There were moreand better facilities for recreation of this type in 1933. What is now the Campus School and theIndustrial Arts Department was once Waldo Field, embracing 3 areas of tennis courts and of all things,sheltered seating. Our facilities on campus are now reduced to a heavily used campus school field and acontinually sinking peat bog track area that sustains everything from a thriving duck population inwinter to an occasional black '48 Plymouth gouging up the dash lanes. JERRY JOYCE WESTERNWASHINGTON COLLEGIAN The Nuclear Age There is still time if we can stem the rising tide ofconcrete structures. One plan is progressive enough to suggest utilization of material and space athand. Primary considerations are: excavation of peat to facilitate present drainage problem's and use ofsame as a surfacing agent on present hard-pan fields. The resulting hole would be filled with aneighboring hillside creating a four hundred foot square field. A parking lot located next to the fieldcreates ideal space for spectator as well as student automobiles. Connecting these areas would belighted tunnels serving two other functions: a natural drain for the field it runs under, and practical shelterin a nuclear age. Whatever the method, maintaining sufficient area for recreational, if not scenicpurposes, seems a worthy cause. Athlete of the Year, Big Little Man Athlete of the year 1960 isWestern's biggest little man in spotrs, Jerry Joyce. Jerry's specialty is track, in which he turns in a subten second hundred yard dash, and is a sure point getter in the 220. Not limited to one sport, however,Joyce has won a letter in football at Western which he can add to his collection of high school awards.While at Everett High, Jerry compiled a total of five letters, 3 in track in addition to his inspirationalhonor, and All-county and All-district performances. Majoring in Education with an emphasis inBiology, and Minoring in P.E., Joyce looks forward to a teaching career. Page 15 ---------- Collegian - 1960 May 13 - Page 16 ---------- . !

Co-prom chairman D e n ny Fish proposed that Les Elgart and his band becontracted for $2000. The amount exceeds by some $1600 the monies previously appropriated. Alliedwith actual monetary consideration, however, was the feeling by some Legislators that if the Prom wereshifted to a date Elgart would be available, two other dances might suffer. They referred to the SpringSports Informal and the Winter AWS tolo. While the Prom is now scheduled for March 14, a Saturday,Fish indicated that it would have to be rescheduled to April 25 to obtain the big name band. The 25this also a Saturday. It was opined that the Elgart troupe would be the biggest name ever to play thecampus. Another hitch developed with a split opinion as to whether an enlarged Prom dance could beheld on campus, i. e., in the Gymnasium. S o m e o n e mentioned the Armory, which produced agroan from Dr. Keith Murray, adviser to the Legislature and erstwhile chaperon. THE LEGISLATUREFINALLY TOLD FISH to investigate possible scheduling of the Prom on a date other than the 25th, butthe door was not closed to obtaining a big name band.

Romulo was an editor and publisher in Manilabefore World War II. During the war he served as Gen. Douglas MacArthur's aide-de-in the recapture ofLeyte and Manila. In his last address at Western, R o m u l o said that the "United States needsfriends in Asia; it cannot win the global war alone."

There are about 25 main parts in this production as well as minor parts such as ladies of the court, attendants, soldiers and messengers. As Dr.Gregory stated, "There will be lots of opportunities for people to get experience in a Shakespeareanproduction." BACKSTAGE WORK on the play is also getting into full swing with a work party scheduledfor tomor-struction is beginning now so the actors will have more time to work with the various levels andstairs which comprise a major part of the stage sets. Mark Flanders, technical director for the play,revealed that although the sets will not look complicated when on stage, there is far more to theconstruction of them than will meet the eye. This is true because they have been designed withease in moving from place to place being a major object of consideration since there is a possibility ofthe play going on tour. Thirty-one Western students will have their names published in a nation-wideblue-book of college students, that will give them national recognition.

Eastern's coach Bed Reese has brought the Savages twelve championships in his 26 years as basketball coach atCheney. This year Reese has a young team, but one with sufficient experience to be considered acontender for conference honors. KENT MATHESON returns to the hardwoods this year for his seniiorcampaign. Matheson, at 6'4", was the leading scorer for the Savages last season, and was a member ofthe All-Conference first team. The 'for NON-education majors' Placement Bureau Sets Federal JobMeetings A COLLEGIAN LETTER-WRITER'S CRIES of indignation at the College's ignoring of arts and sciences students bit the dust this week. The Placement Bureau, one of the offices attacked in theletter, announced a meeting with representatives of Federal Government e m pi o y m e n t, to which"seniors not in teacher education are particularly invited." Opportunities to fill professional andmanagerial positions in Federal agencies, will be discussed in two meetings Tuesday, as CarlHamelin, district manager of the local Social Security office, and Walter Ward, regional representativeof the 11th region U.S. Civil Service, appear on campus. TWO GROUP MEETINGS of fifty minutes eachare scheduled— one in Room 225 at 11 a.m., and one in Room 120 at noon. Students interestedshould stop at the Placement Office, Room 121, and obtain a copy of the Federal Service EntranceExamination brochure, M. A. Allan, head of the bureau said. 'Tederal agencies are making a concertedand systematic effort to bring information on these careers to the college campus," the PlacementBureau announcement stated. only other senior letterman on the squad is 5*11" guard Don Nelson. The other guard is 6'4" Dick Ko-ford. Koford was the Savages' second highest scorer last season, andwas also an All-Conference selection. 6'4" Gary Roberts was Eastern's leading rebounder as afreshman last year, and was the squad's third highest scorer. Others ticketed for action are lettermenDoug Cresswell, Jon McFarland, and Walter Hartman, and non-lettermen Roland DeBoer, DaveDanielson, Allen Fackler, and Vern Westrick. In n o n - c o n f e r e n c e play through December 27, the Savages won seven contests, and dropped but two. The Whitworth Pirates are coached by BillKnuckles. The veteran Pirate squad has eight lettermen and several promising freshmen whichconstitute a tall and promising team. The Pirate team averages 6'3" with ten members standing 6'3" ortaller. So far this season, the Bucs have won five of eight contests. SOPHOMORE RAY WASHBURNhas been the top scorer for the Pirates with a very impressive 21.9 points per game. The 6'2"Washburn has also pulled down better than 10 rebounds per game. 6'8" Al Rolf has been averagingnearly 13 With the legislature: rebounds a game. Also on hand is 6'7" Phil Rich. The veteran guards areLarry Reid and Jack Alzina. Another probable starter is 6'3" Dave Morley. Two freshmen who bearwatching are Denny Spurlock and Jim Thomas. Thomas was All- City in Seattle last year, andSpurlock set a Spokane scoring record. This year Whitworth has already matched last year's victoryoutput of five, and looks to be one of the powers of the conference. Western will have their hands full inboth these contests, but with a pair of victories in Spokane the Viks would become strong contendersin the conference. Now eligible are Windy Weld and Ed Vadset, and both are slated for considerableaction east of the mountains. Weld has been starting. A WS Selling Reduced-Price Passes toBellingham Movies WESTERN STUDENTS will be given an opportunity to save some pennies when Fox-Evergreen movie theater student discount cards go on sale on the main landing Monday morning.Sales of the tickets are being sponsored by the Associated Women Students. Cards are priced at $1each. With a card a student will be admitted to a Fox-Evergreen theater for 75 cents rather than the $1adult fee regularly charged. The purchase of a discount card will entitle the buyer to a free movie pass. ACCORDING TO AWS president Barbara Vesledahl, cards will be honored at the Mt. Baker theater inBellingham, or at any Fox-Evergreen theater located elsewhere. The cards will be good until the end of summer quarter, 1959. "I think this is a wonderful opportunity for students to save some money. Thecard will pay for itself right away because the free pass is worth a §1 in itself. Everyone should takeadvantage of this offer because the Mt. Baker theater has some real good movies such as "TheBuccaneer," "Inn of the Sixth H a p p i n e s s " starring Ingrid Bergmann, and Jerry Lewis's "GeishaBoy" coming up in the near future," Miss Vesledahl observed. New Student Soions Seated AT NEXTWEDNESDAY'S 4 O'CLOCK LEGISLATIVE SESSION, four new members will be seated. They areBoyd Baker, Dick Powell and Bob Gustavson, newcomers, and veteran member Leo Dodd. AH will fillone quarter vacancies, an unusual circumstance brought about this year only because of therepresentative schedule set up by the Constitution passed spring, 1958. There were seven applicationsfor the positions. Some new faces to top student positions also showed up in the cabinet of AssociatedStudent Body President Al Jung. John Long, a frosh from Auburn, moves into the Pep Committeechairmanship; Gordon White, a Bellingham freshman will handle Public Relations; Transfer student JoeMalik, a junior, takes over the Student Union Committee; and Marilyn Baker will attempt to surveypublic opinion. IN ANOTHER PERSONNEL note, Auburn senior Elmira Rockey was re-elected assecretary to the Legislature. ASB accounting moved towards complete student sovereignty whenit was voted to take $1,800 from budget control in order to set up the office in the Student Center.Commenting on the present situation as handled through the business office, Finance Committeechairwoman Joanne Matthews ventured that bills were posted a month behind times and that somerequisitions are "missing." CO-OP MANAGER and ASB financial adviser Ray T. Knabe opined thatthe change-over could be made in 30 days. He added that besides the cost of setting up the office, theLegislature could expect to pay a salary of some $2500 yearly for a part-time clerk. Knabe said the clerk should probably maintain business hours from 1 to 4 p.m. The Legislature requested Knabe to make afull report about the salary Wednesday.

President W. W. Haggard reports that Albert Van Aver of the English department has been granted a year's leave for graduate study. He will be replaced by James O'Brien, University of Washington instructor. Also granted a year's leave for graduate study is Charles M. Rice of the Industrial Arts department. ' Returning to fill that gap will be Herbert C. Ruckmick. Retiring will be Dr. E. A. Bond , of the mathematics department. Stewart Johnston, of the California school of technology will replace Dr. Bond. Taking over Dr. C.j0. Upshall's position in the research and education department, will be Dr. Morton Renshaw. Turning to the junior high school, Miss Leslie Hunt has been granted a year's leave of absence, and will be replaced by H. D. Rushong, who comes direct from Stanford. Miss Evelyn Odom has been made supervisor of student teaching in the city of Bellingham, and in -her place N. H. Bremer, of the Colorado State College of Education has been appointed. -„,, . President Haggard also announced the appointment of D e e l an Barron to the science department staff. Haggard Attends Recent Meeting At a recent meeting to discuss a possible southern branch of the University of Washington, fifty officials attended, representing five s t a t e institutions. The schools sending delegations were University of Washington, State College, Western, Eastern, and Central colleges of- education, as well as the junior colleges of the state. Governor Wallgren, who presided over the meeting, stated that there is little possibility of establishing a southern branch of the university at this time. / Among the problems discussed was that of housing with the following results: University of Washington, housing under control; State College, need of additional housing; ' colleges of education can accept more students provided they have housing; junior colleges,' able to absorb 3,000 students. Collegion Staff See Herald Published Seeing the evening paper roll off the large rotary press was a fitting conclusion of a visit to the Herald building a week, ago made by the cub reporters of the WWCollegian. The visit included seeing a rqom where the news was coming in on two teletype machines, the engraving room, and the room with the linotype machines where the day's edition was set up. Next the group was taken to the basement where the casts for the rotary press are made. This is an i n t e r e s t i n g process in which a cast of a whole page of the paper is made, the casts then being put on the rotary press. The newsprint goes into the press from a large roll arid comes out as the folded paper. * Dorm Work to Stall Soon Allocation of $219,232 for WWC's ^proposed dorm was announced today by Governor Mon C. Wallgren. Vol. XLIV — No. 38 Western Washington College, Bellingham, Washington Friday, August 2, 1946 WWC's Future Dormitory for Men Construction on the new men's dormitory "'to to be located at the corner of High street and Normal drive is scheduled-to begin in the very near future. The dormitory will house 70 students and will have a cafeteria large enough to feed 100. Application for Units Taken By AGNES SMITH WWC bachelors will be able to move into the "Zero" units on or about September 16. There will be room for forty-five persons and about thirty-five applications have been received by the Business office to date. Applications are coming in at a fast pace and it is suggested by Dr. W. W. Haggard and S. J. Buchanan, financial secretary, that anyone wishing to apply, or who knows of anyone contemplating such action, should do so at once. A deposit of ten dollars is necessary to establish a bona fide application on the date it is filed. In the remote event that there should not be a full quota of bachelor applicants, the overflow of applicants from the Sehome. Place project may be allowed to move into the "Zero" units. ZERO DEFINED "Zero" seems to be a peculiar way of designating living quarters. Lately there has been much discussion and not a few opinions on this topic. We became curious and found that it refers to the size in a left-handed sort of way. The "Zero" indicates the number of bedrooms available in the unit. However, the fellows won't have to sleep standing in a corner b e c a u s e the living room, which is large enough to accommodate two persons, is a combined living room and bedroom. New Showers Shower room facilities for junior high boys are to be installed in the south end of the main building according to Dr. W. W. Haggard in an interview given the first of this week. For the last four years the junior high boys have been using the shower rooms in the main gymnasium, but this fall the college enrollment will be so greately increased that it is deemed necessary to install these new facilities. Application has already been made to the Civilian Production Administration for the necessary material. « Application was also made to the CPA for the materials necessary to construct a new vault in the' Registrar's office. Studes Come from Long Distances Fifty-one summer students at WWCE have home addresses in other states, Canada or Alaska. The three students from Alaska are Robert Bain, A n c h o r a g e ; Ethel Bernard, Fairbanks; and Marien Jackinsky. The four from Canada are Joyce Wopdley, Hester Richards, Sister Mary Catherine and Sister Mary Raymond'"~ "'" " Of the Washington students 90 women and 99 men are from Whatcom county. King county has the next largest representation with 45 women and nineteen men. The state of Oregon is represented by about 15. Minnesota, Montana, and North Dakota are each represented by 5. Two people are from the states of Iowa and Tennessee. Three are from Idaho, and one each from the states of Nebraska, Wyoming, California, Nevada, and Michigan. . Alice Pollard, Arlington, Va., decided to attend summer school here because the Pacific Northwest was the only section of the U. S. she hadn't visited. Miss Pollard will fly back to Arlington at the close of the summer session. Dolly Crist, Chicago, Illinois, and Genevieve Ross, Mankato, Minn., also came to WWC to travel through the Pacific Northwest,. Three first term students, Helmi Kauppilla, Minn.; Cleo Sheridan, North Dakota; and Ethel Bernard, Fairbanks, flew to their homes at the close of the first term to spend the rest of the summer with their families. Arntzen Speaker Led by Edward J. Arntzen, WWC social science instructor, a forum was held at the Kiwanis'club luncheon a week ago.. The timely subject- "Free Enterprise" proved interesting, and there was quite a spirited discussion, although Mr. Arntzen placed certain limits on the question to be discussed. Some talk was heard of holding another program on the same topic in the near future. . Mr. Arntzen discussed free enterprise briefly in a ten minute talk, stressing that a free market is essential to its survival. Hollander New Vets1 Adviser Barry E. Hollander, vocational adviser, has assumed the position of chief, Guidance Center, relieving Dr.•*• Paul Flory, who has been recalled to the regional office for specialized duties on the special board of seriously disabled veterans. Mr. Hollander is a graduate of the" "University ' of Washington;' a pre-war employee of Goodyear Tire Rubber Company, and a veteran of World War II. For three years during the war he was personnel counselor of a navy training school. He also served aboard the U. S. S. Texas (the ship which acknowledges having intercepted the shells from the German artillery before the shells left the gun muzzles) on the Normandy beach-head. "We urgently request all veterans to feel free to contact our office in regard to any problem, regardless of how insignificant it might appear," said Mr. Hollander. "And we appreciate the fine cooperation extended by WWCE in assisting us, in our goal, to serve the veteran to the best of our ability." Hunt Visiting Minnesota If Mr. Thomas Hunt's observations are correct, and if southern Minnesota is representative of the corn-hog belt, then the outlook for more pork in the near future is black. In a letter received here this week, Mr. Hunt, WWC geography instructor, reports a scarcity of the bacon producers; however he continues, the corn and other crops are excellent. Mr. Hunt is spending part of his summer vacation visiting friends and relatives in Minnesota. New Coke Machine The lounge has ah added attraction! No, it isri't a female . . . it's a coke machine . . . and once again science has added to the comforts of mankind. This new addition not only serves up the drink, but returns your change as well. Construction of the men's residence hall, at the corner of High street and Normal Drive was also given the green light at last week's board of trustees meeting. Bids will be opened August 21, with actual construction to follow at once. The new dormitory will be of modern, fireproof, brick construction, and its modified Romanesque design will harmonize with the library, PE building and Campus school, adding both beauty and balance to the campus. TO HOUSE 70 The three story building will house a minimum of 70 students, with two men to each room. The rooms will be neatly furnished with desks, chairs, wardrobes, beds and a lavatory. There will be shower rooms on each floor; while a large lounge on the first floor, and a smaller one on the second floor will afford ample space for study and entertainment. Among the many features of the new hall none will be more greatly appreciated by the entire school than the ultra-modern kitchen and cafeteria. The cafeteria will have a seating capacity of 100, and will aid immensely in relieving the pres-. ent inadequate dining facilities. Hammer Honored By N.W. Society As a newly elected member of the Northwest Society for Supervision and Curriculum Development, Dr. Irwin A. Hammer, WWC faculty member, will participate in the society's conference to be held tomorrow in Ellensburg. ". Dr. Hollis Caswell, of Qplumbia, will be'the main speaker at this conference, which will formulate plans for this coming fall. .. .. The Northwest Society includes the states of Washington,' Oregon, I d a h o , and Montana, and. is gt;a branch of the national Association for Supervision and Curriculum Development. Remedial Speech Included Now Remedial speech work with the orthopedic ward of the local hospital and out of town people will be part of the work of the speech depart" ment during the second term, according to Ramon George, speech director.

Representatives of the Big Four and 17 smaller nations are meeting in an attempt to sign peace treaties with Italy, Finland, Rumania, Bulgaria and Hungary. The draft of these treaties was drawn up at the recent Big Four ministers, meeting, and although this is no gt;t a rubber stamp conference, nevertheless these drafts (with minor changes) will undoubtedly be approved. Armaments, boundaries, reparation and military occupation will be among the trying problems discussed, while the debate over a "free Danube" will undoubtedly be the most pressing issue. It behooves us therefore, not only as students, but as citizens to follow the progress of this conference; to acquaint ourselves with the issues and principles involved, and above all to take an active interest in those affairs which wili have such a tremendous bearing on our future.—R.

Yes, that's when Hampton will be playing at the Starlit Gardens, Vancouver's newest night spot . . . out under the stars. And quite a place it is, too. The Gardens can accommodate any size crowd and still have plenty of room for fancy spins and whirls, as executed by the present day Joe College and Betty Coed. But more about the band. Critics have described Hampton's band as "hot as Goodman and sweet as Lombardo." It is the only colored orchestra in the world featuring violins, and one of only two orchestras— the other is Louis Armstrong's — featuring entertainment in addition to musicianship. Hampton's is one of the biggest bands about, too, with seventeen people. He has five saxes, two of them doubling on electrified violins; three trumpets and three trombones for a total of six brass; piano, bass, guitar.and drums. Lionel himself plays a vibraharp most of the time, relieving the drummer occasionally for a drum solo, and at other times the pianist for one of his famed two-finger piano solos. Incidentally, the vibe Hampton** plays is quite an instrument — a $3,500 gold-plated affair, the most expensive of its kind in existence, presented to Lionel by the manufacturer, the well-known Deagan company which also makes church chimes, carillons, etc.—G.

On ike $(deliti£s with beecroft and jones From all reports the week-end cruise among the islands of Puget Sound to Sucia was really something. Even before the stubby little Sea Scout ship Actiyian had nosed itself away from dock in BeUingham, things had begun to happen. First, the sailing time was set back almost 45 minutes when the crew of the Activian made a last-minute dash up town to procure a much needed staple of the sea—meat. The cruise had scarcely begun when Mr. Hearsey discovered someone had overlooked including.a few crusts of bread amongst the list of provisions. The bread shortage was alleviated, however, when the Activian pulled into Fisherman's Cove and a shopping spree at the Cove netted over 20 loaves of the staff of life. MYSTERY OVER SUCIA • • Maybe a better title for this would be "Who put the salt in the coffee." Anyhow it happened something like this: All the fresh water the campers had with them was what they had lugged from BeUingham. The H-2-O of Sncia has too many bugs in it. Sometime during the confusion of unpacking and making ready the camp, somebody upset a 10 gallon can of the imported water. • The person or persons guilty of such a foul deed had a brain-wave. They filled the can again . . . only with salt water. NOW, as you can well imagine, salt water and fresh water when placed in a 10-gallon can appear very similar to the normal eye. A cook's pair of peepers are, on the average, normal too. You can imagine the rest- The cook brewed a batch of coffee from the can containing 10 gallons of Puget Sound water.. As. the weary campers settled back to enjoy a few swigs of the supposedly invigorating brew, you can imagine the consternation that broke loose when the over-salty coffee- sloshed down the various parched throats. • • • • • • • At first the innocent campers.blamed the canned cream for the odd flavor of their coffee. Then somebody remembered that the sugar can and salt can bore a remarkable resemblance to each, other. These deductions both proved to be wrong. The milk was sweet and the sugar and salt cans had been carefully separated. A few of the bolder campers eyed the cook suspiciously . . . but the cook had done nothing unusual . . . just used regular coffee grounds and the water out of yonder 10-gallon can. Then came the discovery . . . someone poked his finger into the innocent looking water in the 10-gallon can and it was awfully, awfully salty. (Notice: As yet the guilty party is still at large!) . • • SIGN EARLY IF YOU WANT TO GO This isn't going to be a complaint . . . not exactly . . . let's call it another piece of timely advice. In case you didn't know it, some of you students" have been giving the Recreation Committee a bad time. Here's liow: When a notice has been posted to be signed by those wishing to go on a hike, sightseeing trip, picnic or boat trip, please sign if you intend to participate. The Recreation Committee must do a lot of ground work in advance of any of the activities they plan. They must know exactly how many students are going on the various outings. They make these arrangements for your convenience. If they plan a hike or picnic, they want to be sure that enough food is on hand. It it's a sightseeing trip, the committee wants to be sure they have sufficient transportation. You can plainly see the implications that might arise from not knowing exactly how many students to plan for. Just remember, be sure to sign the roster if you are going on any of the outings planned by the Recreation Committee. It will pay you to do so. M^ntain e^ Qtcas For Last Hike Of Season Songsters Sing On Sunset Hill N Washington's beautiful sunset over Bellingham bay was lost in the clouds as the songfest group climbed to Sunset hill Thursday evening. Approximately 25 students left the PE building at j6:15 under the direction of PE, B. W. Regier. Sunset hill is about one-half mile southeast of the campus. After arriving the group built a fire and made coffee to enjoy with their lunches. Eden's hall 3rd floor, brought their own picnic lunch. Rain briefly interrupted the party, but after few drops the group singing continued. Mr. Regier sang several solos, after which the party returned to the campus. Barbecue At Lake No definite time has been set for the picnic which will be held tomorrow at Lakewood on Lake Whatcom. Everyone is . invited to come as early as he wants, the only drawback being that the barbecued salmon will not be served until 5:30 in the evening. However, the committee will attempt to make the waiting a little easier by entertaining guests with boating, swimming, and horseshoe pitching. Sam Carver and his helpers promise plenty of tasty fish and gallons of steaming hot coffee. The committee will furnish the fish but those coming to the picnic are asked to bring plates, cups, and lunches to supplement the salmon. The price for the day is very low, only 35 cents.

According to Don Packard of the recreation committee, the sightseeing tour will give members of the party opportunity to see such things as fossils, several different and curious types of rock formations, and many kinds of marine life.

The passengers were all members of the group that spent the week-end cruising Puget Sound and" camping on Sucia island. During the homeward voyage from Sucia, the Activian ran into a squall which added a climatic finish to an eventful outing. ACTIVIAN REPAIRED The group left Bellingham shortly after 9 a. m. last Saturday morning. After a two and one-half hours cruise through the glassy, clear waters of Puget Sound, the Activian unloaded its cargo of humanity on the beautiful shore of Suscia island. The faculty members and students were practically abandoned to their own resources for almost 18 hours when the Activian sailed away to undergo minor repairs. Saturday afternoon was spent hiking about the rugged beauty of Sucia island. Mr. Hearsey, head of the expedition, led the group to the various scenic wonders for which Sucia is famous. Many of the weary hikers hit the cool water for a refreshing swim upon their return to camp. . • •» SCARCITY OF WATER Loren Bezzo, as chief water tender, became very popular with the campers when it was learned that there was a shortage of drinking water. There is no drinkable water on Sucia island. The only water at the camp was what had been brought along by food committee. Seventy-five gallons had been stored on the Activian but when the boat left for repairs all the water had not been unloaded. Although some of the campers became slightly dusty, they all survived until the Activian returned with its precious cargo. Four chief cooks took care of preparing the food for the expedition. Each cook had several volunteer helpers (KP's). Mrs. Hearsey, Mary Dunitan, Lucile Reiman, and Sam Buchanan were each in charge of the preparation of one meal.

Their return is anxiously awaited. After all, what other house can claim a two-cottage student? Ted Madden has decided to stay with us. Gosh, I thought the Ana-cortes fish canneries were about to get a good man. The three remaining tenants, namely Vern Merritt, Bill Burton, and Harold Stevenson, can be found in the "little room down the hall" racking their brains on the psychology of adjustments. These occasional plugs are usually worth about two-bits per head, it gives them that often helpful intellectual prestige. P. S. Does anyone want a second-hand, beat-up house reporter? • • SENIOR HALL Don't tell anyone but we have some room down here! The end of the term cost us not only some very good friends but most of our officers, and a worthy reporter . . . Woe is me! At Monday's meeting Margaret Clark was elected president; Evelyn Harrington, vice-president; and Lena Wilson, secretary-treasurer. New members of the hall hail from such far flung points as the Dakotas and Tennessee. They are Hazel Panning, Frances Revis, Cecelia Huglen, Lena Wilson, Elizabeth Stolen, Ina Ruth Nelson and Rosemary Leden. They say you can tell a Sucia-tripper by the color of her nose. • • DANIELS HALL Back again after an absence caused by terminal papers and trips, we have a little catching up to do on our many activities here at Daniels. Last Friday night was like old home week, when in walked Hal Booth, the scholarly type who went to WWCE from 1937-40, and his wife, Liv Bruseth, former Publications Prom Princess, together wtih Dick Dombroski and wife. Both boys are attending the University of Washington, working for their masters degrees. They were joined by Leon Alpaugh, of football fame and his wife and mother. Leon is now connected with the local school system and is coaching Junior .Legion baseball. Then Gene Sivert-son and wife joined the group and tales from way back when to the very latest gossip really filled the air. Roy Wark, Dale Ackley, and Jerry Pells spent the week-end in Vancouver, B. C, and came back with the most beautiful sunburns. The keeps-you- standing-up kind. Be seeing you next week. • • EDENS HALL "I love you, Ouch!" "I love you, Ouch!" And there you have it in a nutshell, folks—the Story of Two Porcupines Necking. With the start of the new session, we see many new faces around the dorm. There are so many coming and going all the time that I can't keep up with them. Helen Landers flew to California for her vacation before she starts teaching school in Edmonds. Speaking of California, Midge Spromberg is also making the trip and Deloris Wilson just returned from a three weeks vacation in Southern California, Mildred Fyfe has certainly been rating lately . . . along with boxes of raspberries, she received a huge bouquet of sweet peas.

Baker for the second time . . . or when you and the boys set out to find some excitement that's somehow pretty elusive . . . do you just shrug your shoulders and say, "Oh well, this is summer school?" If you do . . . Brother, I don't like your attitude! f~- — Sure the recreation program more than keeps you busy . . . if you happen to be a mountain scaler, or an ex-infantryman that just can't seem to get enough hiking. But how about a little plain and no less terrific indoor party-time to keep the social calendar on an even keel, and for the benefit of the less rugged of the species?- After all, how rugged can you get? And don't say that because the summer group is composed of all ages, shapes, sizes, and marital statuses that a successful party is impossible. Contrary to popular belief, WWC is not exclusively a matrimonial bureau and friends are kinda nice to have . . . young and old, married and single. Honest! That brings us back to the point! Why the penalty for going to summer school? Why? WHY? . . . . . . don't the houses stage all-campus progressive open houses featuring bridge and checkers, a smooth Glenn Miller background, and cokes and doughnuts to keep everyone going till they get to the next house? How about it, house prexies? A finish-up dance in the lounge for the kids might be kinda nice, too. . . . don't different organizations sponsor evenings in the lounge? Wouldn't take much work, just a little planning and "anyone who wasn't eager to hit the books could have a little fun dancing, playing bridge or ping pong. See? Nothing to it. Why not a Family Night Here are some people with enough sense to use our lounge. Look like they're having fun, don't they?

Biting, freezing winds and sub-zero weather are rapidly closing in upon our suffering troops in Korea. Their inability to keep warm,despite good clothing, along with a lack of warm food and shelter will again make their task moreunbearable. Regardless of efforts made to avoid it, there will be a great many weather casualties againthis winter. But what about the miserable fellow* who are wounded, also, and must sweat out thechances for survival in that quick-freeze climate. Can you put yourself in that position? NO! No one canvisualize the gripping terror, pain, and suffering of a wounded man on the fighting front. GIVE BLOOD! Letit not be said that we at home are not physically, as well as spiritually, behind these heroic lads of theUnited Nations who must give their all, forget their own lives, and carry on with a nasty job they didn't askfor. GIVE BLOOD! Or forever hang your head in shame, knowing that some son or father died frompainful wounds protecting your freedom, while you gaily skipped though the crisis, too busy to do yourshare in this tremendous job.—J. F. • . • • PEACE! This word seems to be foremost in theminds of college people. Evidence to this is the response of student body and faculty iii this week's drivefor the "Crusade for Freedom." Knowing the values and effects of a free system of communications, the people of the staff say "well done" to those who worked and those who gave toward this phase of work for peace on earth.

The victory,which marked Western's third homecoming win of the 1951 season, concluded the Vikings' mostsuccessful grid season since the undefeated 1938 season. Western's defensive squad turned in a stellar performance for the afternoon in holding the Wildcat eleven to a net gain of 59 yards. Defensive backsEldon Odle and Pete Muir, broke up the Cat passing attack, by intercepting two passes and blanketingreceivers on seven other aerial attempts. Lineman Vic Lee helped the D team break into the scoringcolumn when he blocked a Central punt on the Cat 25 yard line. End Louie Jelenik recovered the blocked punt over the Central goal line. Little All - American candidate Norm Hash and halfback Don Wal-ley led the Viking ground attack which netted 320 yards and four touchdowns.

A special committee, headed by Jim Hamilton, brought the matter before the Board after investigating the problem of missing tests. Also discussed were: 1) A report from the finance committeerecommending the refunding of Klipsun fees to married couples. 2) The selection of Ken Robertson asnext year's Collegian editor. 3) A recommendation from the Publications adviser Lo re-organize theCollegian staff. 4) A report from the special Trips and Conferences Policy Committee. 5) An electioncommittee report. The recommendation by the Board to the library is an attempt to eliminate the falsename signing when checking out tests and other miscellaneous materials. The final outcome of theBoard's action will be determined by Miss Herrick, librarian.

In college I have served on the Board of Control, have debated, am chairman of the AthleticCommittee and have taken courses in parliamentary law.

I've got a class that meets three days a week in the Lounge and two daysin the Co-op. Student Union Is Keystone In Progress of Western Western is like an adolescent boy,outgrowing his shoes faster than Mom can buy him new ones. With the continuing need for teachers andthe progeny of the World. War II baby boom about to reach college age, this growth promises to continue and even to accelerate.. .This growth is beyond our control—we can neither stimulate nor retard it. Butgrowth of the physical plant necessary to accommodate this increasing student body is entirely withinour control. If it is to grow, we must build it. The college administration and the State of Washington areconstantly planning for this growth in terms of years and decades. The new men's dorm to be finished this fall, another women's dorm to be started possibly within the next two years, a new science buildingperhaps in four years—these are just the next few steps in the long process of growth. There is oneessential step, however, which the administration and the State of Washington are not planning—aStudent Union Building. This building—one of the most strategic in the program-can only be built by thestudents. A SUB means these things: 1) More available class room space—that now occupied by theStudent Center, Co-op, Lounge-fountain, Collegian and Klipsun offices. 2) A place for a possibleCommons dining hall to serve all students eating on campus. A place that could serve meals all day. 3)Centralization and expansion of ail student services which are managed by the Associated Student Body. Thus, the SUB is a key-stone in the expansion of classroom space; living services and recreationfacilities. This key-stone is needed now—not in 20 to 50 years from now. A majority vote of YES on thefee raise issue next Monday and Tuesday is the only way we can get it.

Bliss DearEditor, There will be on the ballot in the coming election a proposal to raise the student union fee from$1.50 to $4.50. It is feared by some that if this measure is defeated the student union building wouldnot be started until 1989. Such fears were expressed in the Feb. 17 issue of the Collegian. This wouldmean that unless SUB fees are tripled, it will take 33, not two years, to get construction underway. (Itis claimed that if the fees are increased, the SUB will be ready for use in fall of 1958). In other words, bytripling SUB (student union building) fees, we can pay for this project sixteen times as' fast! This is veryreasonable, or isn't it? There ar_e two ways in which we could balance the student budget and stillhave enough money for the student union building. One way is by cutting expenditures (such as thesubsidization of clubs and balls) and the other way is by raising fees. But let us not fool ourselves intothinking that an increase of fees will effect a magically great increase in the speed with which the SUB project is completed. John Kohfeld Ed's Nofei $1.50 is not enough guaranteed income to borrow money (perhaps $500,000). A fee raise is the only possible way to have a Student Union within a few years.Applying simple mathematics to an income of $1.50 times 3 (quarters) times 1,700 students, thendividing this into $500,000, does not leave one with a small figure in terms of years. Add to this thedoubt that any company would lend at the fantastic sum of $1.50 per person per quarter as guaranteedincome (which will require more than simple math), and the sum is rather complex; in fact in terms ofyears the completion date of a building so financed grows rather hazy. However, if the fee raise ispassed, the ASB will have enough income to borrow money (and one must have something to show hecan pay off a loan), let contracts, pay interest and retire the principal of such a loan. Payment wouldstill be long in terms of years, but the building would be in use while this was happening— in shortterms this would be "rather pleasing." To the editor: I wish to express my vigorous objection to thequotation included in the front page article entitled "Two Seniors Drop Prom ASB Race" in. ASBgovernment is bad now can this be a negative statement? 3. I personally think that some of thepresidential candidates are duds—some being dudder than others. I sincerely believe that DaveNorthrup would have been an ex-the February 17 issue of the Col- cellent ASB president I feel that legian. Although the person^quoted WWCE has lost . g r e a t deal because has every right to his opinion, such'of his change of plans. My state-an expression of personal bias can hardly be' considered asnewsworthy. Moreover, the obvious poor taste and the questionable ethics inherent in the quotationwould require that it not be made public. No newsorgan should ever become a vehicle for theperpetuation of private opinion of personal malice. Bob Teshera Dear Mr. Editor: ' _ ( Recently I made astatement in a letter to the election committee which, after being reported in this paper, has,beensubject to vilification and misinterpetrations. My comment on all this is, (Ed. note: mild profanitydeleted). Always we have the keepers of the public morals seeking to keep the public as" a man mightkeep his mistress. Closely confined arid free from any tarnishing contacts other than his own. Butbefore I get involved in "subjective" opinions (the only kind of opinions I have ever seen) let us examinethe statement in question and let me interpet it. I'd like to do this for anybody who is interested becauseI figure that I'm an expert on this comment, that isf I said it first. The statement, " . . . a belief thatstudent government will do naught but mark time under whoever is elected now that Dave Northrup haswithdrawn." 1. "belief" . . . personal opinion and therefore, subjective by its very nature. Show me.another kind. 2. "Will do naught but mark time" . . . this means that the type of student government wehave now, with its good points and bad ones will prevail next year. There will be little or no progress overwhat we have now. Only if we assume that ment was intended as a tribute to him and his abilities. I stillbelieve this—biased, emotional, subjective creature that I am! Oh keepers of the public morals can youever find it in your hearts to forgive me? I do believe that there is,. now one candidate whosequalifications place her far above the other people running for ASB president. She is level headed (not?to be confused with flat headed), sincere (not to confused with a desire to keep public morals), andintelligent (not to confused with the big line with nothing backing it up). In conclusion I say to thekeepers of the P. M., (mild profanity deleted). I do not a p o l o g i ze for my profanity because I thinkthat most students, approaching the statement in question rationally, feel the same degree ofrepugnance over its picayunish appraisal by parochial minds as I do. Ugh! Very sincerely yours, BobDunlap House Presidents' Council Sets Up Competition Plans are being set up to establish a housepresidents' council at Western. Purpose of the council, according to Mel Joy, who originated the idea, isto build up inter-house competition and develop interest in student body functions. The council, althoughnot fully established, is promoting inter-house competition now to get more (Continued on Page 6) 7^^t6e Student (fatten, . This year the Associated Students are fortunate in having exceptionally qualifiedASB committee chairmen. The various chairmen are indirectly responsible for the committee's work and success. All our committee members and chairmen deserve recognition and credit, but since space is limited here, I will mention only two. Rodger Williams is an example of the competent chairman under discussion. His background of ASB activities includes: one year of service on the Board of Control, co-editor of,the Collegian, chairman of last year's Movie Committee, and now chairman of the StudentFacilities Committee. Roger has had much experience in this committee's work and his ability as thechairman is commendable. A n o t h e r excellent committee chairman is Dave Northup. During fallquarter he was a member of the BOC, Senior class president, a member of Inter-Club Council, andchairman of the Student Union Committee. Despite his Other activities, Dave and his committee havedone an outstanding job. The committee has done more towards plans-ning and promoting a StudentUnion Building than previous-committees. As already stated, it takes a good chairman to make acommittee operate efficiently^ and Mr. Northup has accomplished. this' objective. The Student Union Committee practically started from "scratch" arid this year has greatly progressed. Last year the SUBwas thought of as a possibility in about ten years. This year, thanks to our committee, we can considerhaving a Student Union in two years. The committee has worked hard and has a sound Student UnionBuilding plan for your - approval. The committee has done all it can do until a proposal to finance thebuilding is passed by student body. This proposal, to raise ASB fees $3, will be decided at the generalelection Monday and Tuesday. For the good of Western and future students, please seriously considerthis proposal. A vote "yes" will mean a Student Union Building at WWCE. A vote "no", will delay theplanning of a SUB until future years when the Associated Students choose to have a building.

These are but two of the numbers the girls will do. To add to the barnyard atmosphere a mural drawn by Deanna Swenson will portray animals painted andautographed by each of the girls. To add that extra touch, country style, the girls plan to strew strawabout Rec Hall, so that even those who get hay fever, may enjoy themselves.

The scenes will include everything from the New Yorkskyline to the President's office' in the White House. STYLIZED SCENERY Because of the stylizedscenery, the stage crew is using a stylized approach to the scenery: they have chosen a few importantcharacteristics of each scene and made those the major portion of the scene. One of the scenes ofthe play will be a movie taken the night Winter-green is elected President. With the cooperation of theactors in that scene and Dr. David McDonald, of he visual aids department, this has already been filmed. Because of the patriotic motif of the musical, red, white, and blue will be the predominant colors in the-scenery and costumes. TO MAKE COSTUMES Half of the costumes used in the musical will be madeby students. Some of the more ornate and expensive items will be rented. Members of the costumeconstruction ation will require about 12 yards-of - white taffeta and considerable perseverance. -!Assisting Flanders and stage manager Dick Bruland with the scenery are Gordon Pfister, Don Martin,Ted Hagen, Bob Duvall, Lee Porter-field an* Dave Van Brorikhorst.

In- Flowers of Quality Phone 288 Charles B. Wilson, Manager Sfcatt Sa ttb By JOHN BETROZOFF Jack Hubbard wasn't too happy over the officiating atEllensburg last weekend. Jack usually isnt one to sit back and let refs get away with anything andCentral was no different. Except that the tooting was so bad, he threatened to pull his squad off the floorif the refs pulled any more "boners" in the second half. Reports have it that even Central fans were booing the referees. Seems to me that when the home town fans boo while they're ahead, it's time to take thehint and do better or "hang it up." SOMETHING NEW THIS TEAR This brings to light just how thereferees are assigned to games. In the past each school made up a list of referees available in theirdistrict and sent these lists out to the other Evergreen schools. .:,,!!,s(,:s,i:Mi;,f The schools would markpreferred refs (first choice, "^sm^mmiiiii second choice* etc.) and send the lists back. Then each hostschool would get the refs that the visiting team selected if it was possible. However the host schooldidn't'go all out to satisfy visiting schools. But this year the conference appointed a commissioner to setup the referees for each game. Perry Mitchell, Central Washington registrar, served in the post. Hearranged referees for every conference game, taking things completely out of the hands of the homeschool. Things didn't work out to well and I guess Western got about the worst deal, although everyschool was: dissatisfied. Those of you who saw Hubbard's reactions at home games know what I mean.Every conference member thought it was a great idea. Our athletic representatives, Lappenbusch andHearsey, voted for it. And to boot, each school was assessed $50 from student funds to create the job.Feel good now!!! SCHEDULING MOST DIFFICULT JOB There is a lot of work that goes on before twoteams take the field or floor for a game. If people only knew the complications that arise in setting upschedules, there probably wouldn't be any squawks. In basketball for instance, the NCAA does not allowOregon schools to play before December 1. UBC can't play between Dec. 1-21 because of exams. SoWestern and UBC can't get together with two Oregon teams for a weekend series during this time. Whenyou combine these can't plays, might play, no opening, opening at wrong time, it leads into a lot ofconfusion. Circular confusion as Lappenbusch would say. SENIORS BOW OUT We overlooked the factthat four seniors played their last game on the home court against Whitworth and; that, they closed outtheir college basketball careers Saturday at Central.

Hamilton: I'm running for BOC because I possessgenuine interest and a real desire to serve the student body. Besides meeting; the statedrequirements, I have additional qualifications: attendance at alb Board meetings fall and winterquarters, familiarity with problems at other Evergreen Conference schools; working ability with thefundamentals of parliamentary procedure. My GPA is 3.5. Harris: I have been a member of the Student Union and the Athletic committees. I have attended most of the BOC meetings. Since I have been incommunication with students of all points of view I think I have a grasp on student opinion. I willcontribute positive action rather than parliamentary exercise. Jacobspn: I am interested in studentaffairs; I would like the experience of working on the BOC. I.was in several high school activities that required leadership. At present I aim head usher and FTA treasurer. VanBronkhorst: I am runningbecause I am interested in student government. I realize that student government here is in need of agreat deal of work to smooth the rough spots and I am willing to contribute to this work. Beyond the factthat I meet the constitutional requirements and have had experience on the Finance Committee, myqualifications are self-dependency, ability, and above all, a desire to contribute to the progress ofstudent government. White: I am running for the Board because I feel that it needs active members.The Board needs equal representation of all campus organizations and activities. At Vashon High School I was the student body president. FEE RAISE VIEWS QUESTION: Are you in favor of the proposedfee raise for the Student Union Building? If not passed, how do you propose we finance a SUB? -Hamilton: Yes. If it is the fee raise, not the building that the students disfavor, I will work toward•B^HHaOBHBBBnVBB a compromise fee raise that is acceptable to the students. The SUB is notpossible without student support. Harris: I am in favor of the fee raise. The SUB is not an issue, but anecessity. We cannot. have the SUB without a fee increase, therefore if it does not pass we will beback where we started. Jacobson: I am. definitely in favor of it. If the issue, does not pass, I think morecampaigning will have to be done until it does pass. VanBronkhorst7: I am in favor of the raise. If thestudent body rejects the proposal I can see-no other plan than to re-present it at a later date, for it isthe easiest and most equitable plan, and the only plan that will give us our SUB in the foreseeablefuture, in time to meet the urgent need. White: I am in favor of the raise. I think it will give the impetus to begin the SUB. If thisv issue does not pass in the election it will indicate that WWCE students are not ready to spend that sum. PERSONAL CONTRIBUTIONS QUESTION: What can you contribute tostudent government? Hamilton: I propose a full time publicity director for athletics. As business manager for the Collegian, I believe that I'm able to offer constructive criticism for the improvement of thepaper. In addition I will maintain an objective attitude toward any issue for the Board's consideration.Harris: After a certain amount of consideration I am in favor of ac- WANT TO START EATING AGAIN?

I haye served on the BOC; Student Facilities committee; have been ICOrepresentative; chairman of the Conference Policy Committee; vice-president of Pi Kappa Delta and vice-president of USCF. I feel that it is necessary for a person to be very active in student governmentbefore running for president. Sehermerhorn: By looking at the future with an ^eye toward progress, itshould not be difficult to see that if we continue in our trend to say "It can't be done, we don't have this,"we will not do what we want or get what we want. There are people in this school who, if given thechance, will bring us out of our psychological "rut". Therefore, with my several : years of experience,working with groups of all types, (church, grange, Toastmasters) I have come to recognize talent inpeople and have the ability to get cooperation out of them, which' results in tremendous progress.Perhaps this sounds brash and bragging, but the foundations of democracy, and the prime requisite TRY OUl DRIVE-IN CASH AND CARRY MIIKPIAN Save 14c a PACKAGE ICE CREAM At Our Drtve-lnHillview Dairy 1824 Cornwall Avonuo We Serve Lunches and Refreshments We can not be without, isparticipa- ' anciers and the committee will ad-tion by the group. QUESTION: Are. you in favor of raisingfees for the Student Union? Moffett: Yes, I am in favor of the vise on interest rates, bonds/ long termloans, and the feasibility of other methods of raising funds. , Richardson: If the measure is not passed,we must first try to nego-vice which would cost under $5. Per- practical experience using Sturgis tinentroll-call results should be j while serving on the BOC. Refer-fee raise as this is the only feasible tiate theloan mentioned above, a way in which we can get a new j longer term loan, and submit a SUB. If the fees are not raised we have no chance to get the building in the near future. Other colleges have tried otherways and all finally ended up by raising fees. Oldow: I'm very definitely in favor of the fee raise. Beforethis proposal went on the ballot, it was carefully studied by Jthe Student Union Committee and was O.K.'d by the Board. Many hours went into research and from the results I'd smaller fee increase forstudent approval: If this fails, we can. assume that the students don't want a Student UnionBuilding. Sehermerhorn: I suggest that we work on some of the ways other schools have used to raisefunds. I would point out that many schools throughout the country have had this Student Union built byalumni. QUESTION: What do you think published in the Collegian. Sehermerhorn: As chairman of thisyear's bonfire and as general organizer for the pep rally, I was responsible for bringing together theideas and advice of students and faculty with the resulting break from the traditional affair; being replaced with one more streamlined and functional. My philosophy towards student government is a- liberal one. I feel that we must advance our government through evolution, rather than revolution. As a means tothat end, I would like to form an advisory cabinet to the ASB president and the BOC. This group wouldbe drawn Give Personal Qualifications, Reasons for Running; State Positions on Fee Raise say the $3increase is very fair. Richardson: I am in favor of the fee raise. It is my opinion that the building can befinanced.at a lower student fee than the one which is now proposed. However, the important thing nowis to get the proposal passed, and to get to work on the building. Details can be worked on later.Sehermerhorn: I am not in favor of the Sudent Union fee as it is now proposed. Three dollars is too much for many of the students now attending Western. As a veteran, even though unmarried, I am aware ofthe financial situation facing 98% of the veterans and married men on this- campus. They can't afford the raise. Especially in the light of the fact that our fees continue to go up. QUESTION: If the fee increase is not passed, how do yon propose financing a Student Union? Moffett: Why beat around the bush? Ifwe want a SUB we must raise fees. Oldow: I believe this measure will pass. Western needs the building right now. The fee increase will make us eligible for a loan; then perhaps we can count on the alumniand student fund raising activities as other sources. Qualified fin- Hilh Our I ' aM Cam DISCOUNT you SAVE! you can contribute to student government at Western? Moffett: I hope to do the following:1. Work towards the improvement of the A L Series; 2. ;More room and board jobs for athletes ; lt;3. More scholarships; 4. A SUB; 5. Better public relations between the town and- the school. Other than this, all I can say is that if elected I will serve realistically and to the best of my ability. Oldow: Primarily, a well-organized, efficient, steadily progressing government. Richardson ;-I have a conviction thatcollege students as a whole are entitled to a voice in decision makr ing of the ASB. Some studentleaders have expressed the view that it was a mistake to submit the Student Union Building proposalto the entire student body. I disagree. The job of student government is to implement the opinions andwishes of the sudents it represents. I have some concrete ideas which would implement this philosophy. 1. Enlarging the BOC to consist of one representative for every 100 students. This will providerepresentation for Western's growing student body. 2. Provide for expanded use of studentreferendums. I feel that all major decisions of the ASB should be subjected to referendum approval by all students.. 3. All BOC members should be required to establish a uniform office hour for at least oncea week. All BOC members should be required to file each week a statement that they have conferredwith at least 25 students. Failure to comply would disqualify members from participation in themeeting of the week. 4. All voting at the BOC should be done by roll-call vote. This could be donequickly with an electronic de- 206 E.

E.,speech, etc.) and would include professional majors and/or faculty members qualified to present thefeelings and experience of their individual departments in regards to any legislation involving possible controversy between departments. This would be strictly a non-voting group and would exist solely for the purpose of expediting BOC actions and keeping the president closer informed of student bodyneeds and desires. QUESTION: How well acquainted with Sturgis are you? (In explanation, Sturgis is the parliamentarian the Board follows and knowledge of the book is essential for effective Boardof Control meetings, j At the last two BOC meetings time has been spent in debating certainparliamentary procedures.) Moffett: I am well acquainted with Sturgis as I have had parliamentary lawin high school and college, and I am now taking advanced parliamentary law. Oldow: I am wellacquainted with the book. The important. thing in, using parliamentary procedure is to make workprogress smoothly. I admit I've been hard pressed to apply the right rule at the right time. I am equallyconcerned with the last half of her book which relates to committee work, democratic rights and duties of a governing board. I am much in agreement with the little book ahd will continue to use it as a guide.Richardson: Who thought of the question on Sturgis, Bob Dunlap? ((Ed. Note: Dunlap is innocent.) It is a valid one. The president must be a good parliamentarian. I have had class work in parliamentaryprocedure both here and at the University of Washington. I have had ence to the minutes of thatorganization will show that I have been an active member who uses these procedures, not a spectator, as some members of the Board appear to be. Sehermerhorn: Through my several experiences with,group leadership and through an intimate acquaintanceship with parliamentary procedure (i. e.,Sturgis and Robert) I feel that I am well qualified to mediate fully the considerations of the Board ofControl. QUESTION: Why are you running j for vice-president and why do you believe you are qualified?- Brewer: The job of vice-president concerns social activities, and I am interested in this. I would like tosee more functions after games and would work for activities that would draw more student interest. Ihave been BOC secretary and have had experience with parliamentary procedure. Carlson: I amrunning because I feel that I now have a sufficient background of Western and the functions of studentgovernment. Also my experiences in different clubs on campus, especially the presidency of ACEhave shown me that work with people achieves the work at hand. FEE RAISE QUESTION: Are you infavor of the proposed fee raise? Brewer: I want to see a Student Union at Western. If this is the bestwayHo finance it, then I favor the raise. The postponing of this building would mean that it would be along time before the building could be erected. Vice-Presidential Hopefuls State Points of View 24-HOUR SERVICE On WEDDING INVITATIONS PRINTERS . . . STATIONERS PHONE 386 BtlewBallingham National lank Carlson: I believe that it is necessary for the student body to pass thismeasure now. A failure of the vote to raise the fees would put Western behind, and possibly without,student government and stu-" dent functions.

K AMPUS KLUB ORNER By ALLEN JUNG Club members and officers: what has your group done in response to the former ICC resolution? If you will recall the idea ofthis resolution, it was suggested that clubs select qualified members to run. for office. If not possible toselect candidates from within- the organization, it would be possible for the group to sponsor a non-member who is running for electionn. To date, it may be noted with some disappointment that not many of the organizations on campus have taken any definite action on this proposal. However the stimulation coming with surge of spirit from the write-in campaigns is a factor which does tend to create moreinterest in the election.

Charles Odell-, chairman of the board, reported that he and a carpenter had investigated Lakewood,student-owned site on Lake Whatcom. Odell estimated that repairs would run between £2,000 and33,000.

Odell said that acommittee was investigating the possibility of selling some of the timber on the 13-acre tract in order touse the proceeds for extensive repairs. Bill Jones d e c l a r e d that he thought the ASB could disposeof the property. "I think that it is useless for us to own property which isnt used extensively but which isgoing to cost us $3,000," he said. Odell agreed, "I would like to condemn the place. I hate to seeanyone go out there in the condition that the place is in!" "We are maintaining a liability! A studentunion building is worth a thousand times what Lakewood is worth. I se no reason for the ASB to ownproperty scattered all over the recreation area," declared another board member. This was in reference to Kulshan cabin at Mount Baker and Viqueen lodge on Sinclair island, both owned by the ASB.Viqueen lodge came into the disr cussion when it was observed that there is no longer any publictransportation available to Sinclair island. Viqueen lodge is operated by the Women's RecreationalAssociation.

Therefore, the Collegian now sincerely congratulates those honest and heroic persons who find it their duty to produce evidence in the scandalous dope traffic cases. Theyouth, upon whose shoulders tomorrow's future must rest, have already been victimized by immoralcriminals who feel no guilt, regardless of how devastating the crime. Life magazine stated that we must remain aware of the possibility of a recurrence of illegal dope selling. While we remain constantlyalert for murders, kidnappers, or robbers, certainly we should never relax our vigil in seeking out those who defy our narcotics regulations—for this crime does far more physical and mental damage to a greaternumber of people than most other crimes combined. Let us as educators, resolve to maintain an interestin this problem Let us furthermore, demand the death penalty so that those who insist on defying thenarcotics laws will be faced with a retaliation severe enough to discourage such outrageously immoralcrimes. * * * Business is good! That is the hews of the day in Vic's Grotto. So qood, in fact, that itseems to be impossible at times to find a place to eat during the crowded lunch hour. Perhaps it is reallybecause there is such a hungry group during such a short time. However, it has been brought to ourattention that a great number of people use the eating area for nothing more than a conversational meeting place, thereby making it necessary for those who actually wish to eat to stand at the bar or wait for atable for what is very often a great part of their lunch time. This situation can be easily corrected if thosewho wish only to visit would make use of the more comfortable furniture in the lounge room adjacent tothe fountain room. , State Department Official Here For Summer History Session By JOHN FALLISElliott Aandahl, who has led an extremely colorful life, is on statutory leave from the United StatesForeign Service to continue certain studies at WWC. Mr. Aandahl studied at Western in 1948, and since that time has served the government in such places as Nanking, Shanghai, Hongkong, Formosa, andManila. Until the advent of the last war Mr. Aandahl served as a missionary in various Chinese localities.At this time the need was great for experienced experts in oriental culture, language, and geography,and Elliott served as a United States lia-son officer in the First Marine Division with headquarters innorth China. After many months of exemplary duty In military service, Elliott again put on civilianclothes with the end of the war and in 1947 he returned to his native land. At this time he began hisstudies in political science and history at WWC. After thte short interlude at "home", Mr. Aandahlwent to China again, this time for the State Department to serve as an official in the United StatesInformation Service. In this capacity, Elliott controlled certain phases of information worksponsored by the United States government. This information, designed to give the people of othernations a true picture of the United States and its people, includes press publications, libraries andinstitutes, audio-visual techniques, and broadcasting. In addition, the Fullbright Exchange Program is being used. When asked if he had recently had any harrowing experiences as a result of theCommunist coup in China, Mr. Aandahl replied, "while in Nanking, on the very day it fell to thecommunist armies, I received orders transferring me to Shanghai (Continued on Page 3) LITTLE MANON CAMPUS By Bibler By Madelyn Gilley A parallel study of the lives and works of Edwin ArlingtonRobinson and Robert Frost reveals the fact that these two great American poets of the 20th centuryhave many similarities together with a number of outstanding contrasts. Some of the things that theyhave in common are the facts that both poets have thrice been awarded the coveted Pulitzer prize forpoetry; both have refused to desert their art because of the pressure of mundane matters during the longyears before they won their recognition; both were reared in New England and were, hence, steeped inits folkways, and, finally, both revolted from stereotyped poetical diction and adopted an individual styleof weaving New England's colloquial diction into the metrical patterns of traditional poetical forms.One of the outstanding contrasts between Mr. Robinson and Mr. Frost is in temperament. While Mr.Robinson is a rather somber, ingrowing, impersonal, pessimistic, and sometimes cynical person,Frost's approach is one of even temperament, outgrowing, friendly, optimistic, and understanding. One has only to read Mr. Robinson's "Man Against the Sky" and Frost's "Mowing" to note these contrastsand differences. Anoother difference is in the technique Used by these poets. Mr. Robinson oftenworks up themes in ballad time, an example of which is the poem, "Flammonde," while Frost evidentlyprefers to speak in blank verse as he does in "Birches." Robinson, with Frost, shares the foremost place in the first half of this century, and he will remain beside Frost among the greatest American poets.more faculty (Continued from Page 1) taining her doctorate at Pullman.

Where are all of these athletic recreational places I've been hearingabout around Bellingham? Seeing all of the happy faces around school I decided to try and answer someof these questions, just to see if I can help some of these students fill up all their empty time aroundBellingham. There are a number of things right here at school. Next week the fastball league will start,and you will be able to get a lot of enjoyment out of going out and watching the boys play fastball. OnThursday nights of course you can participate yourself by going to the gym, the rec hall, or the swimmingpool. Around Bellingham there are many things that can take up some of your athletic activities. There isa widely used swimming program both at Lake Whatcom and Lake Samish. You can find good swimmingand good fellowship at either of the lakes. As far as watching some sports are concerned, you are indeed fortunate to be here in Bellingham. There are fastball and hardball to be seen every evening at Downerfield—out Lakeway Drive—for all fans. About twice or three times a week the Bellingham Bells, one ofthe top semi-pro teams in the state, play baseball at Battersby field, and you can get a glimpse of someup and coming baseball stars over there. For the more daring fans that like water skiing—and motor boat races, both Lake Whatcom and Lake Samish have facilities for those, and for the person who is not sodaring but enjoys watching there is plenty of opportunity there. Just a look around you here at Westernwill make the mountain climber drool. If he is an expert in his field, Mount Baker is a greatchallenge—some of the other smaller peaks are plenty of challenge to the normal nature lover. Pishingis also a popular sport around the Sound area. There is plenty of lake fishing, river fishing, and salmonsalt-water fishing. If.you inquire around either in the Collegian office or just of some of the studentsaround school that have that old beat^out look, they can put you on the right track to some top sportsmen of the community that can help you secure your fishing paradise. There is more-than-likely a lot ofdifferent sports that have been missed in this fast recap \ of "What can I do," but this could give you astarting place for your leisure hours, and the one big hope of all of us is to have as much fun as possiblewhile we are here in the paradise area of the United States. , The SILVER and GOLD AN MMMNMNTNIWIMm M a tH.Diiii»i * .

' COLLEGIAN Vol. XLVII - No. 41 Western Washington College, Bellingham,Washington Aug. 1, 1952 » . • _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _^ Activity Evidenced In Art Workshop By MARIEMEENK The Welling Workshop in elementary art education now going on at WWC is the scene ofwidely diversified activity. At first glimps, it seems that no two people are doing the same thing, butthat is not the case. Huge murals VA by 16 feet in size are being constructed by groups of 20 teachers. This activity provides valuable lessons in group cooperation which will be useful in understandingthe problems of children working together when widely different abilities and ideas must becoordinated. Dr. Jane B. Welling is particularly interested in the potentials for art expression in theeveryday classroom, where the children all have "energy and urge" and the teacher has the sparkleand push to bring it out. One of the highlights of this week's experiences was an original puppet showby ten year old Lianne Arstein and Ilene O'Neal based on the activities of the Republican convention.The girls managed six puppets and produced the show in toto. The only puppet who could answer thekey question in their quiz show was a small Boy in Miss Kinsman's room at Campus school. The witand humor of the children's performance presented a real challenge, commented a workshop teacher,as she prepared to engage in puppet-making activities t h is week. NEA Moves to Raise TrainingStandards,. Considers Attacks A movement to improve the "standards of "teacher education was amongthe accomplishments of the ninetieth annual convention of the National Education association j n Detroitlast month. Discussion of attacks and charges of "subversive" teaching also highlighted the convention of NEA, which has an affiliated membership of 950,000 teachers. Delegates voted to create a national council for accreditation of teacher education. The national council will have these functions: (1) toformulate standards for teacher preparation through continuous research and through consideration ofthe recommendations of all organizations concerned with the preparation of teachers; (2) to deviseways and means to evaluate institutional programs of teacher education by the application of thesestandards on the request of an institution and the state authority responsible for accreditation. Thecreation of the national council is considered a long step forward in the task of raising teacher-training standards. The new council will serve, in effect, the way the American Medical associationdoes for the improvement of medical standards. The nation now has 1,200 institutions of highereducation giving courses leading to teaching certificates, more than half of which are not evenpassably equipped to provide competent training. Second-rate training schools will be eliminated orforced to improve their standards. * TEACHERS HAVE FEAR Reports presented showed plainly thatfear and timidity have become commonplace in the teaching profession. Dr. Martin Essex, chairman of the-NEA Academic Freedom committee, said that teachers are all too willing to remain behind theirfour walls and speak about "safe" issues of years back rather than current problems that might offendsome segment of the community." Book censorship is growing, the delegates were told. Some self-appointed censorship groups object to the inclusion of statements .concerning the New Deal or TVA in economics books. Some communities find that the United Nations or UNESCO material is beingchallenged as "subversive." An enlightened but pessimistic report came from the NEA's Defensecommission. It pointed out that the number, variety, and violence of attacks on public education hassubstantially increased during the past year. On the one hand, textbooks are charged with beingsubversive. On the other, teachers are being charged with being subversive. Then, collectively, thepublic schools are brought under fire. SMEARING LUCRATIVE NEA spokesmen said many of theattacks on the schools were the wdrk of "dishonest racketeers," "super- (Continued on page 4) *Students Promised Assembly Seats in Answer to Protest Grade View Monday Grade reports forstudents attending both terms will be mailed out during the last week of August to the address givenby the student at the time of registration. Any changes in such address should be reported to theregistrar's office. Students who completed some courses in the first term will be given the opportunityto see their grades on Monday from 9 to 11 a. m. and from 1:30 to 3:30 p. m. No written reports will be given until the close of the second term except to those attending only the first term. Class SponsorsDriving Test . A Drivers' Skill test sponsored by Dr. Alan Pawelek's Driver Education class will be heldAugust 16, at 2 p. m. in front of the Industrial Arts building. Student instructors and student driverswill participate. Among the six skills to be tested are: forward and backward driving of 100 feet on astraight line, steering forward and backward in close quarters, and the reaction time in stopping. Thefamiliar blue Chevrolet donated to the college by the Wallace Chevrolet company in Bellingham will beused in the skill tests. Mayor Sig Hjaltalin of Bellingham has been invited to attend the program.Representatives from the AAA, Washington State patrol and City Police department will be present.Refreshments of coffee and cookies will be served immediately after the tests. During this time therewill be some short talks on driver education. Jack Headlee is chairman of the event; Don Moore, co-chairman. * Assurance of President W. W. Haggard that steps will be taken in the future to assure allstudents of seats at Artist and Lecture programs was reported to the Board of Control Wednesdayby acting ASB president Milt Clothier. The action came as a prompt response to the protest registered by the board last week on behalf of students who had been unable to obtain seats at a recentassembly. It was suggested that a plan will be worked out whereby student seats will be reserved for. areasonable length of time. Board members got around, to approving most activity budgets for the1952-53 school year. Approved budgets included: Administration, $4,210; Social, $3,095; Intramurals;$1,872.68; Collegian, $6,987; Drama, $1,310; Porensics, $1,547.32. Still unapproved was the $21,000collegiate athletic budget. Action on it was postponed because of the failure to include spring sportsawards. LOUNGE CLOSED At the request of Manager Louis Earle, the board voted to close the student lounge and the fountain room over the weekend for the rest of summer quarter. Earle also reportedthat fountain room business has begun to slump noticeably since the end of first term. Preparing tomove the center of student government from its tiny second-floor office, the board acted to earmark $750for furnishing new offices in the annex. Harvey Gelder told the board that its share of the expense ofrenovating the former lounge will amount to approximately $1,200. Miss Patricia Hieber receivedencouragement to go ahead in forming a hiking and recreation organization to function throughoutthe year. ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1952 August 1 - Page 2 ---------- By THE EDITOR NO BLOODSHED PLEASE Let's put our weapons away and discuss the Artist andLecture situation peaceably. ''..'.. ^ "This has been a bitter battle recently mainly because of thedispute over whether the function of the assemblies is to entertain gr to educate. Adherents of each pointof view hold fast to their stand and refuse to admit that the other function is anything but completely aliento the purposes of the assemblies. The entertainment fans (most students, some faculty) argue" that the students pay for the assemblies, that the customer should get what he wants, and that what thestudents want is entertainment, pure and simple: Burl Ives and magicians. . The culture spokesmen(some.'faculty, few students) say that trie assemblies are an ^integral part of the college's generaleducation program, that the faculty culture cult knows best, and they insinuate that "if you don't like it(sopranoes and string ensembles), you can find another college." ••"."'.•. It's our suggestionthat maybe the assemblies could both educate and entertain. A balanced program would have a few"uncouth" entertainment programs with crowd-pleasing as their undisguised purpose, a few high-browitems with cultural uplift as their purpose, and a great many programs that will entertain as they educate.WE'RE CULTURAL INFANTS It seems also that our music-lovers err when they assume that a student at this poor man's college can benefit from a highbrow performance without plenty of guidance. Westernstudents, as a rule, do not come from a social class that contains many connoisseurs of music. Theycannot be coerced into appreciating good music merely by confronting them with a string quartet andtelling them: "This is good stuff. Sit still and enjoy it. You will become cultured." The assemblies ofclassical music that we enjoyed most were those of the quarter when we took Music 101. Then Dr.D'Andrea prepared members of the class for what was to come in advance of the performance. If afugue was on the program, he explained the mechanics of the fugue and alerted the class as to what towatch for in the performance. Unfortunately, one quarter of such enlightened listening is not enough to fixpermanent habits of good listening. Perhaps if Western students were given listening guidance over a four-year period, they would graduate more intelligently appreciative of good music than at present. That,we presume, is one of the objectives of the assembly committee. Listening guidance could take theform of brief program notes, prepared and distributed in advance. Repulsive as they may be to a moresophisticated audience, program notes would provide the listening guidance that is needed. To thetypical Western student, a soprano warbling an operatic aria in a foreign language is pure non sense,without the hyphen. Give him a little explanation, and he might even find it entertaining. LECTURESREALLY STIMULATE A change in the structure of the artist-lecture committee may be necessary toformulate a more balanced year's program. We've noted that lecturers have deplined in quality andquantity lately, while musicians have* increased at least in quantity. But more direct benefits can beperceived resulting from the appearance of lecturers. As an aftermath of nearly every lecture there havebeen beneficial discussions in speech classes, in social studies classes, in club forums, and in thelounge. This, we think, more clearly approaches the assembly objective found in the college catalog:"intellectual and cultural stimulation." Western students want to be educated. That's why they're here.Education can be entertaining can't it? Or can't it? Science Class Begins Journey To Olympics, Mt.Rainier Students of the Pacific Northwest course in science left on another field trip Tuesday morning.Two faculty members, Miss Marie Pabst and Miss Bernice Dorren and the 14 students are making thetrip on the college bus. The first stop was at LaPush on the Pacific ocean where they stayed untilWednesday studying the ocean shore line and marine animals. From there they drove to the Rain forestof the Olympic National park on the Hok river where they stayed until Friday. Saturday the group willtravel to •Camp Grisdale of the Simpson Logging company near Shelton. While there they willstudy a sustained yield forest program and for enjoyment will eat a logger's dinner at the cook house.Monday, August 4, they will study forest products mills in Shelton. The following three days will be spent at Yakima park on Mt. Rainier where they will camp at a 7,000 foot elevation. While there they willstudy the Emmons glacier, biggest glacier on the mountain and in the United States. They will studyalpine plants and trees on the mountain. The group will arrive back in Bellingham Friday, August 8.Dr. Fred Knapman, of the science department, Miss Mildred Herrick, librarian and veteran mountaineer,and several science students hope to join the group in Shelton for the weekend. From Our Files 10YEARS AGO In use for the first time this quarter was the new Campus school built at a cost exceeding$350,000. Devi Dja and her Bali-Java dancers presented "A Night in Bali." Miss Miriam Snow of theCampus School library was spending her annual monthly vacation with her family at Albany, NewYork. Miss Edna Channer and; Miss Evelyn Odom were keeping in touch with the college by attendingE. J. Arntzen's class on Northwest history. ' • • i Famous Tenor Sings Next Raymond Mantor,famous tenor, will present a concert Tuesday, August 5, at 8 p. ni. in the Auditorium- Music building.Sixth in the summer Artist Lecture series, Mantor's program will consist of many famous selections. Born in New York City, Mantor began a serious musical study at the age of 14. His career has beeninterrupted only by four years of military service in the army. What Students TkfnkofAtt "What do youthink of the present Artist and Lecture series?" It seems that the summer student body is as dividedon this question as the student body during the regular year. A majority of those polled "in an opinion-survey e x p r e s s ed some dissatisfaction. * Bob Wilcox, returning student, said, "I've had experiences with them in the past so I didn't bother to check them this time!" Joanne Luther, junior, would like tohave more lectures and fewer artists. She cites Marguerite Hig-gins, who appeared h e r e spring quarter, as a good example. Joanne feels this would give more variety to the series. Joan Rienholt, sophomore,would also like to see more variety. She feels that the program gt; should be more for enjoyment andless a cultural "must." Margaret Grove, returning student, said she liked and enjoyed the programsvery much. Kyle Westland, ex-GI, who is now a freshman, has attended every program. He expresses the popular opinion that they would be more enjoyable if there were greater variety and less longhair on the schedule. Margie Urbick, senior, thinks the programs have been chosen primarily to please the administration and not the students. Ann Garcia, said that when students go to the program it should be for relaxation and enjoyment, not for any idea of "sophistication." She.said, "The students who serveas members of the selections committee for the Artist and Lecture series should give definiteconsideration to the desires of their fellow students." Magdalin Majerus, returning senior, after going to the last concert at 7:15 to get a good seat; says, "Next time, I'm going to bring my knitting;''Kefauver Supporter Deck Stevenson Draft Was Genuine ffimv (Sen.

He is a brilliant scholar and an outstanding administrator, as demonstrated by theway he cleaned up his home state. He is a liberal. He will make an excellent president. Proof that theconvention was no cut and dried affair was the way votes were split, even within delegations. Forexample, the Washington State delegation remained split to the very end; Kefauver had 12% votesand the remaining 9% votes were divided among several other candidates. Incidentally, I was pleasedthat my old handball-playing friend from our days together in the House, Sen. John J. Sparkman ofAlabama, received the vice-presidential nomination. He is a symbol of the new, liberal South. Andas the son of a sharecropper, he is a living example of the great American tradition whereby a person ofhumble origin can rise to great heights. This was my first national convention, and I was proud of therole Washington State played. Sen. Warren Magnuson addressed the convention, and served on the all-important platform committee. I also was allowed to address the convention and to spell off Sam Rayburn as chairman when he became voice-weary. I was most impressed by the fact that, despite thelarge number of people who took part in the convention, the views of all groups were heard andconsidered by the various committees, and then translated into planks in the platform. ' Ours is aforward-looking platform that shows equal consideration for all segments of our* society —workers,farmers, businessmen and professional people. We never have believed that one segment of societyshould gain at the expense of another. That is why the Democratic Party has been victorious in thepast, and why it will be victorious again in November.

For some, the business of attacking and "smearing" the schoolshas become a lucrative racket, the NEA said. Their constant reiteration of "the-big lie" or the greatdistortion has had some effect on public opinion, it is feared. In other convention activities, NEAadopted a set of personnel policies calling for orderly dismissal procedures, to include a fair hearingon the charges, opportunity to call witnesses and to prepare a defense, and the right to appeal. Theeducators voted that the teachers' salary schedule should be increased, with a $3,600 minimum, goingto an $8,000 maximum.

College Mountaineer Describes Thrill ofAscending Baker's Heights Where View and Weather Are 'Wonderful' By LYNN HUNT ( Twelve hikingenthusiasts left the PE building Friday afternoon at 3:45 p. m. We were bound for Kulshan cabin whichis located in the Mt. Baker forest area approximately eight miles from the summit of Mt. Baker. Wearrived at the foot of the trail and then packed in 1% miles, to the cabin. We were very grateful that thework party of six had been there since 5:00 a. m. Friday morning— everything was under control. Wehad all the facilities of home: running water, beds, and kitchen. Chow was ready around 7:30 the nextmorning — ample reason to climb out. We all took turns assisting on breakfast, lunch, dinner and KP duties. After breakfast we loaded up with grease paint, cameras, baby oil, lunches, and ropes and took a side trip to Grouse Butte. There some old hiking veterans put us THE HOLLY BARBER SHOP 206%E. Holly Street Frank Weyand - Geo. Shumacher Geo. Heffley, Prop. through the ropes. Theydemonstrated some of the main rope techniques, glissading and "general snowplay." Nightmaresand pleasant dreams of close encounters with avalanches were most rudely interrupted by a dull roar at1:45 a. m., Sunday morning: "Men but in three minutes, and women in four, or else . . .". (no namesmentioned, Doc). Just nobody gets up that early. We had started our much anticipated (till thatmoment) climb by 3:00 a. m. There were 30-32 of us. It was a little chilly, but our feet thawed out bynoon. Chet set the pace and no one really got fatigued. The mountain was swarming with shutter bugs at sunrise—and what a picture it was. Just before we straggled up to the saddle the sun came over thepeak. It was truly worth the hike. We ate brunch at the saddle preparatory to the last endurance test.It seemed like a slow process with our goal in sight, but we finally reached the summit via the RomanwalL It was 11:30 and we hadn't seen so much level land since 3:09 that morning. The view waswonderful and the weather was equally so. After huge gulps of that thick mountain air we started thedescent. Just closed our eyes and jumped. You've never seen such "graceful" glissading. Chet skiedand yodelled his way down. Soaked but no less lively than we had appeared at 2:00 a. m., weclambored into camp around 3:30 p. m. We had done it! VISION WITH COMFORT DR. INGWERSENand DR.

Vol. XLVI— No. 19 Western Washington College of Education, Bellingham, Washington Friday, February 20, 1948 Vein s . . . . . . Dale Candidates Selected; General Wednesday 8AME SONG . . . SAME VERSE . . . only DIFFERENT TUNE . . . For years and years news reporters a n d interested students have butted their heads up against the solid wall of indifference erected by other students as assurance t h a t nothing but choice bits of gossip or o t h e r minor trivialities should manage to eke into their vacuumized spheres of influence. The boundaries of said isolated area including only two ears top of the head, and chin. This election week once again their assurances paid off Not a thought s e e p ed through the hard packed pores of 95a students concerning Wednesday's election. Simultaneous with this announcement we see jubilant headlines in the New York Daily Worker, official Communist organ, broadcasting the victory of third party supported Leo Isacson from the Bronx 24th district to Congress. Isaacson polled more votes than his three opponents combined. One stupid remark picked up last week to the effect that ". . . the polls are so crooked anyway and anyone can control the election . . . so why should I concern myself with voting . . . " only illustrates too well the basic reason for Isacson's easy victory His w o r k e r s and supporters made sure that every member of his party put in an appearance at the polls. They were willing to go to a little extra work and thought in order to get the vote out. The other two staid, stable parties were content to let come what may, and to rest on their laurels. They like un-inter-ested WWC students will be resting on something besides their laurels unless they shake off the mental lethargy that is becoming ingrained in their systems. Habits picked up in college days are top easily and too often carried into later life. Make regular voting habits one of your regular habits. But why waste paper, time, ribbon, printer's efforts and space for something that is of no value or interest to three-fourths of the student body anyway. Go on . . . turn the page to the gossip columns . . . Candidates Are Selected As General Nears Arlene Swanson, Bessie James and Betty McLeod were chosen as candidates for the office of four quarter woman and Gus Pagels, Jerry Karnofski, Bob Bain and Rosemary Provost were selected as candidates for four quarter man and woman in Wednesday's primary election for Board of Control offices. The vote was described as being very small by election officials, since only 292 students from an enrollment of nearly 1200 cast their ballots. The largest vote for any one candidate was 69. Because there was a tie vote for the third place in the four quarter man or woman position, the names of four candidates will appear on the ballot for that office in the general election to be held Wednesday, February 25. A student assembly was held Tuesday morning' to introduce the nominees to the student body. The attendance at this assembly was estimated by observers to be between 80 and 100. Nominees eliminated in Wednesday's voting for four quarter woman were: Berdell Smith, Beverlee Burn-aby, Esther Mjoen, Barbara Mcln-nes, Harriet Lang, Ruth Sodcrstrom and Ann Theg. Jim Beasley, Margery Traulsen, Dorothy McLane, J. Wendel' Brown and LaVerne Brockmier were defeated in the race for the four quarter man or woman office. Field Trip Planned By Shutter Fiends A field trip to Mount Baker is planned by the Camera club for February 29. The cost for transportation will be $2.00 if 25 people sign to go. Coffee will be furnished by the club, but all those going must bring their own lunch. , Camera club members and others desiring to go are asked to contact Merle Bunn in the Camera club darkroom (off the lounge entry way gt; before February 24. At the last Camera club meeting E. I. Jacobson, of the Jacobson studios, discussed portrait lighting and different kinds of light. Talks of this kind are planned for other meetings this year. Election Lacks Spirit Of Yesteryear Last Wednesday's polling booth had a deserted look in comparison with last spring's heated ASB election, pictured above. Some of the students who are shown crowding into that presidential slugfest failed to vote in Wednesday's primary. However, it is expected that Don Brown, 1947 election officer, Tom Orphan, Glenn Wolf, Roma Still, Ruth Vandenberg and Dave Quam will be on hand to exercise their franchise in the coming general election. Band Performs For Schools WWC's 55-piece band is scheduled for guest appearances at Mount Vernon and Burlington High school student assemblies on March 3, ac-carding to plans announced recently by director Don C. Walter. Traveling by bus the band will spend the morning and lunch hour at Mount Vernon, journeying to Burlington for the afternoon. Walter will precede the group to Mount Vernon where he will conduct a rehearsal of the high school band before the college band appearance. Final rehearsals for the trip are now taking place with a variety of band and some specialty numbers included on the tentative program. This is the first year that the WWC band has participated in tours of this type. It is hoped that the band will be able to give concerts at high schools throughout the state later in the quarter.

State Colleges Sponsor New Literary Publication Soon A new, state-wide, literary magazine, sponsored by 16 leading colleges in the State of Washington will be launched this April, according to a report of the organizing committee. The 1948 issue, a trial balloon to test the interest in a magazine of this type, will appear as a forty page mimeographed publication. The organizing committee, composed of Dr. M. F.

According to present arrangements, each school may submit three prose manuscripts and six poems. These will be shipped in triplicate to Harris at the University of Washington, who will distribute a copy of the entries to the editing schools.

The International Relations club elected the two representatives at an earlier meeting, but the appointment is subject to the approval of the Board of Control. Sixteen colleges have notified Whitwbrth college of their intention to send delegates. Rcc Hour to be Attempted Many methods of raising funds for the World Student Service fund were discussed by the club at a meeting held Wednesday, February 18. It was decided that an attempt would be made to sponsor a rec hour in the near future. Following the business meeting, the group witnessed a film concerning the monetary situation in the United States. Geo.

These hours will be in effect for Saturday, Sunday and Monday only. Library hours will be from 2 until 6 p. m., on Saturday and Sunday. The Library will be closed all day Monday. Board of Control To Erect Bulletin As Stimulus For Voters Results of the primary election left Arlene Swanson, Bessie James, and Betty McLeod as candidates for the four quarter position and Gus Pagels, Jerry Karnofski, Bob Bain and Rosemary Provost as candidates for the four quarter man or woman position. Because of lack ol interest shown in the primary, the Board of Control, meeting February 18, discussed ways of turning out a larger vote in the general election. Out of a possible 1200 votes, 292 students exercised their democratic rights and voted, thus giving a percentage of approximately 25 per cent having voted. The Board decided to erect a bulletin containing the pictures and platform of each candidate in the main hall. The point was made that with a small turnout, it would be compar- , atively simple for'an otherwise minority group to elect the candidate of its choice. A concerted effort will be made to create student interest in the'general election to b held next Wednesday. Skiing; Topic Renewed Skiing reared its head again with the revelation that the Shussken Ski club had not been the instigator of the ski team petition. .It was pointed out that the club has only fifteen members and there is no apparent interest in it. The question was immediately raised, "If the college cannot support an active ski club—can it support a ski team?" , A suggestion was made that perhaps skiing as a recreational sport could be subsidized by the Board. Instead of the $2 round trip fare to Mount Baker, the suggestion called for the Board to pay one-half of the cost for one bus each weekend ---------- WWCollegian - 1948 February 20 - Page 2 ---------- ^pSp^'S'^W^i? Western Washington College of Education; Bellingham, Washington Friday, February 20^1948' Students Fail To Exercise Their Democratic Duties It is one thing to possess a right and another thing to exercise it. It is one thing to talk about the liberal education, that you are receiving.and another thing to exercise it. It is one thing to accept with both hands the benefits of a democratic form of government and yet ignore absolutely the basic responsibilities, that it offers you. John Locke would turn over in his grave today if he could get but a glimpse of the small list of voters that participated in last Wednesday's election. Speaking of lists of names, it is very illuminating to check over that voting sheet every once in a while. It seems that you can find some interesting facts. For instance, over here in the men's column you can pick out a number of football players who were allotted $5,079 of student money to carry out their part of an athletic program. Of course their part of the same bargain doesn't include participating in the same type of government that made those funds available. Well, what' do you know, here are the names of a few basketball men who failed to appear at the polling place. Of course the $3,179 that they received doesn't amount to much. After all they are about through with their season so why should they waste time voting? The same feeling shouldn't hold true for the spring, sports; track, golf, baseball and tennis. But evidently it does. ' But then on the other hand, what are we talking about, when right here on publications we see names that weren't crossed off. Of course, they would have some good excuse too. But then so did other people throughout the world. Look where some-of them are today. Now, naturally, if the rest of these students haven't voted why should we expect the Drama department members who are in the rfiidst of a student financed play, to drop their roles and step into a civic role that it is presumed they can star in for life. Of course the band and choir members are too busy-rehearsing'every day to take ten minutes of their time to support -a system of government that has been going on for 1/1 years. : Well/well, we'll, what do we find down here at the bottom of the'list. Is it possible that there are members of the Board of Control that think so little of the organization that even they can't take time out from Flash Gordon to cast a ballot in a country where it might do some good. Of course, it is not according to Hoyle to expect that the department heads: would remind their proteges of an ancient American way of expressing an opinion. Wouldn't it be fun to have a nice neat chart of the number of non-voting affiliated with each department posted above the heads of the Board of Control? Then when each department chief pokes his head in and. his hand-out- they wiil-have-a much better idea of the proportion of student funds to slip him. You can't tel! . . . maybe the WWCollegian will compile such a report and publish it for the edification of all next week. Yes, the more we ' think about i't the better idea it.seems to be. oti we lecow . ... by wolf EFFICIENCY In New Castle, Ind., the city put on sale Sit books of tickets which entitled the buyer to 20 parking violations a year.

Dr. Raymond Hawk, campus school director, as one of the Washington delegates present at the recent Regional Conference of the Commission on Teacher Education at Boise, Idaho, stated this week that one of the principal recommendations made by t he Washington delegation to the conference was for an elimination of the salary differentials between elementary and secondary education. This would be accomplished by "increasing the required program of elementary preparation to five years above high school graduation assuming that the training for secondary education is not increased beyond the present five years."

'Bird Dog' To You By CONNIE MARTIN "I'm Phyllis (spelled with two l's) Armstrong. 'Birddog' to my friends!" This is how Phyl Armstrong might be introduced to those who don't know her—that is if there IS anyone who doesn't know her. Miss Armstrong, I use the term Jightly, stands 5 feet % inches in her callouses. She weighs, to quote her. "120 pounds, but I'm getting it down to 119. I'm dieting; no more than two helpings of potatoes instead of the usual three or four." She has light brown hair and two eyes! She claims Seattle for the old homestead, and is a graduate and post graduate from Lincoln High— rah, rah, rah! She attended the University of Washington for one semester. When asked what she took at the U., she replied: "You might say—'it took ME'!" Miss Armstrong is a musician. She, quote, "fiddled around the East, fiddled around the South, fiddled around, and came up here." She is taking a teacher's course here, majoring in P. E. (that's Pretty Easy) and art work. "Birddog" has been at WWC since fall of '46. On this point she said " love it! I really do. I've been a freshman for about three years; hope to get out soon, though, all 1 have to do is pass." She was co-chairman of this year's Homecoming; candidate for Publication Prom princess; and is a member of the Klipsun staff. Her dutes on the staff are: "Oh, I empty wastepaper baskets, sharpen pencils, open windows (ventilation, you know) get cokes; oh, I'm a big help around there." In her spare tune she works in the compiling department, and does art work. Miss Armstrong was once in a play. She was an angel. That was the end of this career. Why? Well-1-1 —"When I was six I was an angel, but I fell out of a tree and got a black eye." THE VIKING THE HOME OF HOME COOKING Breakfasts . . Lunch . . Supper 7 a. m. to 7 p. m.

We all enjoyed candy and goodies brought to valentines Kathy, Joanne, Madge and Teach Puz. Phyl Armstrong is our comic valentine. She dolled our spaniel Judy in a becoming green sweater in honor of the day. If I were a cat, I'd say that Judy really should get her waistline down to look like the other girls. And speaking of cats, will the owners of the Tom Cat Caruso who serenades our balcony kindly return a brown loafer to room 4? Eleanor promises not to throw another. And speaking of throwing—When we asked how Puz, Toj, and Nita spent then-week- end in Seattle, they said that they would have spent it if they could have found it. Speaking of lost, we'd be lost without our fireplace on chiliy Sundays when it's our only heating system. It's nice to hover around the fire, and Grandpop Bob Ewing armchair. Say, speaking of Bob, I must bob off to class. Bye. Daniels Hall The Daniels hall fireside on Friday night was enjoyed by one and all. There were nineteen couples present, including George Yonlick and Norma Feola, who dance off with two prizes. Mr. and Mrs. C. -F. Lappenbusch were present along with Mr." and Mrs. D. P. Irish, who also proved capable of wirfning one dance. All in all, it seemed to be a rather enjoyable night for everyone Our representative on the varsity basketball team, Stan Peterson, returned from the "inland invasion" dreary and weary. Speaking of basketball, Daniels' basketball team moved closer to the top of the heap by beating the Winos. Look at those league standings and see for yourself, but never mind about looking at those bowling standings though . . .

Still these tall figures didn't seem to bother Jack Meissner and Emery Woodall, two pair of -skiers from Portland, Oregon. The two left Mount Hood's Timberline Lodge on the start of their journey southward to Crater lake. The proposed trail leads over some of the most rugged mountain country in the Northwest. Meissner had originally planned to make the trip alone, leaving on Friday, the 13, and it wasn't until forest officials talked him out of it that he decided to take a partner on his outing. They have scheduled but Hvo overnight stops in "civilized" places—one at Meissner's home at Cascade Summit, near Odell lake, and the other at Santiam pass. Their progress will be watched by members of the Eugene ski patrol, who will watch for their flaming red parkas, from the high spots along the trail. This will be one of the longest ski trips over undertaken in America. Meissner hopes to blaze a ski trail along the Cascade skyline, route and thus encourage cross-country .skiing—which he regards as the most rewarding of all the ski events. The altitude of the trip zoill range from about 4,000 to 10,000 feet. "'•-'If Western only had a ski team, then- they, too, could get their name in all the papers . . .' * • It was a strange basketball story that came out of the game between Converse and Butler high schools in Indiana. At the final horn of the game, Converse had won 120 to 15, but oddly enough the winning team had only four men on the court. The victorious coach had used his first team string for the remaining two—the second and fourth. In the last period, one of\ ids players fouled out and he didn't have a replacement—all the other players were in the showers celebrating that high score.

High point man for the Viks was Jerry Starr with 12 points. Good support was given him by htis teammates Moose Zurline and Jack Ross who each scored 11 points. Pinky Erickson came through with 10 points and Larry Slovek garnered a total of 6 points. Roy Scott, Stan Peterson, Tom Green and Bob Cline came through with two points each. Viks Drop Eastern Games; Mac Crying For Ice Bags Everyone looks forward to week-ends. Some people sleep, some make merry, and others play basketball. Still others (we don't want to mention any names) wish they had been making merry instead of taking part in the hoop sport. They both add up to the same Monday morning hangover. Western suffered horribly on their week-end trek away from the home court. Eastern came through with a 74-43 count at the final horn in Saturday's contest .. final horn in Saturday's contest. Little George Gablehouse and Bill Hallet was the theme of the Savage onslaught that took over complete possession in the s e c o n d ..period. ..Gablehouse bucketed 19 points, while Hal-let was near honor man with 16. During the first half the Easterners were not too confident. The halftime intermission saw them with only 7 points to the good. From there on in every thing went the way of the Savages; their speedy forwards breaking under the basket was the offensive theme that broke the Viking defense. Jerry Starr was high count man for the Viks with 15 points to his credit. Vikings Fall Friday Too Friday, the 13th, proved to be its typical self as far as the Hilltoppers were concerned. The Easterners led all the way in that one, rolling up a halftime score of 33-21. Bob Burke, usually a henchman, stepped into the forward position for the Savages to rack up high point honors, 13 points, while Jerry Starr again came through for the Vikings, hooping 12 points. Final count, 66-42. 1217^Cornwa!l THE PASTIME * BELLINGHAM'S MOST SPLENDIDLY APPOINTED CAFE * , JOE PAGLIA .-. DON CAIRNCROSS Phone 982 Cindermen In Session For Spring Opening With the coming of clearer weather comes an increasing number of track enthusiasts. Many are limbering up now for the official opening of turnout starting roughly about March 1. After a quick sizeup of the coming track season, Coach Bill McDonald places the following as the strongest contestants in their entries as far as can be recognized from previous experience rendered by the men. Lettermen Are Backbone With hopes resting on experienced lettermen from last year, some entries are highly favored. Connie Henderson, Walt Clayton, and Frank Gayda will undoubtedly be big point gainers for the Viks in their fields. Connie gets out in the broad jump while alt favors the pole vault and discus and Frank the pole vault, discus and shot put. In the 100 and 220 yard dashes are Bellingham's Stew Cozza and Bob Huggins. Dave Ovenell of Burlingr ton, and Steve;- Reeves, a transfer from Everett J. C, are also strong threats. The hurdles willj be well represented by Jim Kent, Bob Hanson, and Greg Newton. Jim was a two year letterman at the University of Washington and much can be expected from him this Spring. In the distance runs Monroe's Bob Hopkins is probably the most outstanding with his timing of the mile. The two mile is strengthened by Paul Walton and Ned Carrick. Weakness Shown Although an unknown quantity of tracksters are practicing up for the 880, Wally Miller is thus far the only one to settle down for that entry. Other entries in which not too much is known for quantity are the 440, the javelin, and the high jump. High jumpers are especially scarce this season. Several other boys are yet planning on turning out who at present are not thoroughly set on an entry. Intramural Play-offs Coming Up Soon Only one more week is left in the Intramural basketball before the final championship play-offs. A total of eleven games were played on the maples this last week and scores indicate a fevered attempt by all teams competing to take first place honors in their respective leagues. In the A league last Thursday the Daniels quintet won over the top place Winos by the score of 42 to 38. Monday Huntoon was beaten out by the Winos 40 to 33. Tuesday, in a close game, the Swedes nosed out the Jerks 29 to 27. Thursday in the B league the Blue Devils took an easy 48 to 26 victory from the Hoboes. Friday the Collegians downed the Lost Ten squad . 40 to 33. Tuesday the Collegian quintet took another easy victory from the Hoboes who came out on the short end of a 54 to 20 score. In the C league, Thursday, the Jerks beat out Hospice by a close score of 43 to 41. Friday the Pinochle Five dumped the Pirates 40 to 30. Monday the Hospice gang won over the Pinochle Five and left same on the short end of a 37 to 23 score. Tuesday in a closely contested game the Swedes were victorious over the Jerks by a slim margin of 29 to 27. The same day Hospice took another victory by defeating the bottom spot Pirates 51 to 33. A NEW RIBBON IN YOUR OLD MACHINE WILL LIVEN UP THAT TERM THEME Rental and Repairs HARTMAN Typewriter Co. 217 E. Holly Phone 19 Vik Newcomer Doiny Fine Bay Scott, a recently discharged navy veteran, has added some n ew talent to the Vik quintet in maple court play during recent games. The 6 foot 3 inch ball p l a y e r received v a l u a b l e experience playing for t h e Bellingham Red Raiders in 1945 a n d graduated that same year. Pin Men Locked In Four Way Tie Four teams, Men's Hall Nos. 1 and 2, Mathes, and Sehome, are tied for the bowling league lead. This is the tightest race seen. It,will be a fight to the finish, with at least seven teams still in the race. Lapps were thrown from the top by a hard hitting Sehome team. Sehome took all three points. Hospice A won two' from the Lounge Hounds, Mathes took three on a forfeit from Daniels, Men's Hall No. Z slipped three from the Collegians, Men's Hall No. 1 got two from the Alley Cats, and the Tramps beat Men's Hall No. 3 out of two points. Foster High Man This week's golden throne goes to Don Foster of Sehome for his 195 game. His 357 was also high two game total. Rex Wenger was close behind in his single game with 185. Rex bowls for the high stepping Men's Hall No. 1. Gordy Smith had two game second high with 340. Smith also bowls for Sehome. After seven weeks the teams are tightening up quite a bit in the race. The standings will be found with the Winko and Intra-mural basketball leagues. Flying Swedes Cop Olympics— WWC To Have Ski Meet By FRAN CORY Wouldn't you have guessed it, but Sweden won the winter Olympic games at St. Moritz, Switzerland. Switzerland was second, passing the U.

Mr. Hearsey's Librarians and the Spavins tee off against each other next Thursday evening to start the regular Thursday evening mixed rec hour. Some of the players have organized practice sessions—an indication of the amount of interest aroused. . Much of the credit for the progress of the program is due Miss Weyth-man and Miss Cornish, and Mr.^Lappenbusch of the PE department, Vernon Zachrison, Bertha Hall, and some of the other students who have contributed much to its success. The results should, of course, be gratifying to these people. Prom, the Cubby Hole to these people, "Congratulations on the job you've done? Let's keep the ball rolling." Edens hall has a badminton player in Grace MacBain who can give away points and still take most of the students here at WWC... Probably all of them, for that matter...

The Spavins will be without the services^of Wayne Ensign for the next week or two...Wayne is vacationing in Colorado. • WWC is losing an outstanding instructor and a swell fellow from its faculty with the departure of Dr. Ross into service with the U.' S. Navy. It was this writer's very good fortune to have Dr. Ross as a supervisor while doing a quarter's student teaching. No one, and I use the term in an all inclusive sense, could have been a more cooperative, helpful, and thoughtful supervisor than was Dr. Ross. Understanding the difficulties which most student teachers must meet, he made it a definite point to smooth the student's paht just as much as he possibly could. That he succeeded is evidenced by the high regard and admiration in which Dr. Ross' student teachers hold him. - Dr. Ross was interested in college activities. He had a strong interest in athletics. No one took a more active part in the various college social activities than he. Dr. Ross was a member of the faculty bowling team, and he garnered his share of strikes. Deeply interested in his students, a figure for emulation by those working under him, a constructive influence upon intra-mural athletics, and an able member of the faculty, Dr. Ross' absence is going to be greatly felt. To a swell joe. the Cubby Hole says, "Best of luck and good wishes, Dr. Ross!" WILSON ALL-PURPOSE SPORTING EQUIPMENT Morse Hardware Co.

Ruth Lauber well deserves the choice this week for her hundred per cent participation in the athlette program at school this summer. Ruth is known as one of the out-standing swimmers of the college and can be seen most any time in the pool diving or working on one of her various varieties of strokes in a very serious manner.; Last spring quarter she was able to splash,to two new pool records and contributed to two others.; Miss Lauber is rated by some of the local swim instructors as a real prospect. in future big time competition if she keeps working on her style and kick for she has shown lots of improvement lately. . She also is a very handy person on the tennis court and is able to give any competition some real worry. As a member of. the Edens hall Amazons she is one Of their leading threats to•/ the opposing pitchers and is a person to' watch in the summer session softball loop.

'The^chools after the War" is an important question that is often'in the minds of the educator of today. No one group, nor one conference, can entirely solve the problems .that will arise, but it can begin to clear the way for thinking and planning. Gradually careful thinking and planning by those in the: teaching field will lead to.the desired goal of standards for post-war education. .While you. .are still here we hope you have time to visit the-new additions and improvements on the campus. Particularly do we invite' you to inspect the new campus elementary school, the new" publications office,' and the new student; lounge.

As a suggestion, I wish that all the servicemen who' receive this paper would write a letter to the editor and give the ^details on just what they are doing. I am sure that the servicemen of WWC would he interested in knowing who is in school this summer and also the whereabouts of some of our former comrades and sweethearts... For myself, I am among the more fortunate, being stationed at Navy headquarters in Seattle. Major problem at present is whether to salute the new WAIVES face to face, or walk around the block and wave my arms at ten lieutenants. The problem as to whether to say, "yes, sir!" or "yes, ma'am!" is a bit perplexing, too. Hope tor see some more letters from, the other service rnieni in.future editions of the WWCollegian. Sincerely yours, 7 CLARENCE SOUKUP, , Yoeman First Class. Dear Editor: Having tried in vain through a few former college friends to gain some information as to the: whereabouts of old acquaintances, I., am appealing to the WWCollegian in this respect. It lakes some -centralized control to keep tab's on the graduates and if any organization should know any information; your office should. Where are all the people I used to know ? They are all part of the past. I'd hate to lose it. If possible, send my regards to those who may be reached through the paper. Such memories as real friends and Wonderful experiences of .the past years are not easily destroyed. It makes many miles from home much easier to know where these collegians- are located. Good luck to the WWCollegian summer session, many of us would give a lot to read those pages again. Someday we will. Sincerely, LIEUT. "WAYNE E.

Publicity for .the college and actual audience experience are the aims of the trip, according to Walter. Students Have Last Chance Next Week For Pre-Registration "Students who have not pre-registered are urged to do so next week since this is the last opportunity before January 4," Donald Ferris, registrar, announced this week. Next Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday have been set aside for those students who have not yet pre-registered. New sections which have been sets| up for the winter quarter but which are not in the schedule are Science 103 at 1 p. m. daily and lab at noon on Monday and Wednesday (Miss Ruth Piatt), and Music 101 on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday at 11 a. m., taught by Don Walter. New sections of English are also being opened. "Any changes of schedules must be made the week of December 5-9," Ferris said. Eight Hundred Thirty- Seven Cast Ballots During Two Day Vote A record crowd of enthusiastic voters trooped to the polls Wednesday and Thursday. Five new members will go to the board of control assured that a large portion of the student body is behind them. Eight hundred and thirty-seven votes were cast, in the two days of voting. The new members are: for.four quarter ma'n or woman, Louise Collins, Hal Kloes, and Bob Sarvis. For four quarter woman, June Carrick. For one quarter man or woman, George Yonlick. The large number of people who voted in this election is a tribute to Western's school spirit. It is also an especial reward to those students who worked on the election publicity. The election assembly last Wednesday, the public address system in the lounge and the numerous election stunts all had a significant effect on the final total of votes cast, said Loren Rankin, election chairman. Pianist to Appear With Orchestra Xmas Concert Rehearsal On As there is not much room for replacements in the choir for winter quarter, students wishing to try out are advised to see Bernard Regier for an audition before registering for their winter quarter classes. Intensive rehearsal.is now beginning for the Christmas concert which will be presented Friday, December 9. Sectional rehearsals during the noon hour are being planned for the weeks following Thanksgiving up until.the concert. A choir party is also being planned for December 9 after the concert. Committees have begun work on the decision as to what type of dress will be worn for less formal occasions. Gabriel Fenyves, the pianist who will appear next Tuesday morning in the college assembly program, will perform that evening with the Bellingham Civic Symphony orchestra. Beginning at 8:15 in the high school auditorium, the program includes the Mozart concerto for piano and orchestra. Dr. Frank D'Andrea directs the orchestra, which draws half its members from the college music department.. Identification Pics Heeded for Some. Students who have, not had identification pictures taken are requested to do so in room 112 between 11 a. m. and 2 p. m. on Tuesday, November 22. Dr. Kuder said there is a considerable number of students who missed the photographer either in the general confusion of registration procedure or by being late for registration. This will be the last chance to have the pictures taken until January. uture of Five Cent Coffee In Doubt as Market Prices Incline; Co-operation of .veryone In Keeping Student Lounge Clean Will Help Mr. Bade Hold the Line The future of the nickel cup of coffee is dependent on two iprsy according to Louis Earle, co-op manager. Earle was-auth4 orized/vby the Board of Control last week to raise the p£i|g!pf HI fee to 10 cents whenever conditions warrant the incre^^j^^itej \mt he!hopes that such a step can be avoided. ^p^' 1 ; The wholesale price of coffee has risen approximately1 $ 0 perf cffot jri two weeks, and there is at present no way of knowing whetherthis upward trend will continue. If it does, it may mean trtat Mfee^drinkersi will be forced to plunJk down an extra Nickel Student co-operation in keeping the lounge clean is the other factor in determining whether or not a raise becomes necessary. If unclean, untidy conditions in the lounge prevail, it will be necessary for the management to hire extra help to clean it. That addi* tional expense will have to be met somehow, and a higher price for coffee seems to be the best solution. ; : In; this respect, lounge users themselves will determine whether or hot inflation hits the coffee bar. By taking a little pride in the appearance of the lounge they may be able to avoid paying the higher price. . ^ ' . -v Western Sends Delegation to College Meet Once again a delegation of Western students is preparing to make the journey o y e r the, mountain to Ellensb.urg, as members of the publications staffs begin packing for their trip to the CWC campus December 2. War clubs will be left behind this time, however, for the purpose of this project is purely peaceful. . Central is playing host to the Northwest Intercollegiate Press conference, the fourth meeting a$ which representatives of the publications of the Evergreen conference gather to discuss mutual problems and exchange ideas. In 1941,1947, and 1948 the conference was held at WWC, sponsored by the college's Press club. In fact, this is the first time the conference has been held on any other campus. Three carloads of WWC representatives are planning to attend the two-day meet, leaving Bellingham Thursday evening, December 1} and returning that Saturday. Ten members of the Collegian staff and five from the Klipsun staff will atr tend, as will Mrs. Ruth Burnet, publications adviser. Hots Off The election committee would like to express its thanks for the interest shown in the recent election.

If you should happen to see one of your fellow students with a sob in his voice and a tear in his eye, don't leap to the conclusion that the poor fellow just got a scolding from home about those deficiencies. Maybe he is mourning the demise of one of Western's finest traditions. It seems that not too many years ago the walk leading across campus to the library was known a* "Hello Walk." In times past every student who met another person along that walk smiled and said hello, whether they were acquainted or not. As we understand it, the AWS originated the idea and it was readily accepted by everyone. We're not accusing that worthy organization of neglecting to perpetuate the custom, for perhaps we too have contributed to its passing by failing to publicize it enough. Perhaps now we're too big, too cosmopolitan, too sophisticated to continue such a small-townish practice. Let's hope not. Let's hope that the air of friendliness and comradeship of WWC students does not ever die away, no matter how big we get. So keep smiling, neighbor, and remember to say hello! It's a good idea, whether on "Hello Walk," in the halls, or anywhere on campus.—P.J.G. Officers In, Let's Support em Now that the student body has expressed its choice and elected the new members of the board of control, the WWCollegian extends its congratulations to the winners. We wish you luck. You are joining an outstanding group of school leaders who are conscientiously striving to give WWC students the kind of student government they want, and we know that you will do the same. To those who voted, here's a message. Your responsibility in student government doesn't end just because you did your duty and went to the polls. You owe it to yourselves and to the persons you elected to keep them informed of your wants and furnish them with your own ideas. For those who didn't vote . . . well, remember, you have no right to complain until you do vote.—P.J.G. WESTERN'S MOTHER GOOSE College Cinderella Has Oomph By WALT BAKER Once upon a time there was a fairy princess who worked hard every day to keep her grades up and her patience down. Her diligence paid her rich dividends, a thousand-fold. But she did not fully realize this until, the king announced that there would be a scrumptious fiesta in the great castle's basement. Now, the princess was very excited over the whole thing, but her enthusiasm died when she heard that to come to the festive ball would require an escort of the nobility within the castle itself. All week long plans went forward'in preparation for the affair. She was saddened. Who would ask her, a common.chore girl, to go and if she did receive an invitation, what would she wear? Mary, for that was her name, fretted long hours ovei the sink and wash-pan, but like a good" Westernite didn't give up hope. Her prince-charming would arrive bye and bye. With that faint hope in mind she tended her tasks cheerfully, until 'lo . . . at a meeting of the barons and baronesses within the inner circle, the rinky-doos of Westernia, what should be decided, but that the queen of the ball would be chosen from among the fairest fairies in all the king's domain! Elated by this news, Mary consulted her godmother from the province of Marietta who said if the choice was a just one she should have no fears. .'\ One day later it happened. While riding through the village on his stallion one of the court judges, awed by Mary's remarkable beauty, asked her to report to the dance that night at six-thirty. Her dream had come true! Her joy knew no bounds, and for the rest of the afternoon she busied herself in practicing; court manners. sWhen she arrived at the gate that night she was shown to the dressing room where there were other maids, pretty maids primping vfeOr'-v. : / ; r / : gt;:::/(Contmuedion';F«W 10)^ ' Wyoming Says Thumbs On 'Carmen9 The University of Wyoming was very disappointed last week with a presentation of the Boston Opera Co., "Carmen." The opera was presented before their student body and the cast was very, poor in the opinion of the students: Burl Ives, the famous folk singer, appeared there last Tuesday and must have been quite an improvement over "Carmen" if they enjoyed him as well as the Western Washington students enjoyed the great entertainer last year when he appeared here. * * * Central Washington has a complaint against Western, it seems that we spoiled what would have been a wonderful homecoming. Oh, well, Central has to lose a football game sometimes! » » * If you have been wearing away your shoe leather lately the place for you is Washington State college; it seems that in that institution three out of every four males own or have access to a car. * * * To all you students who come from small high schools and feel that WWC is a big place here's "some of the latest statistics from the University of Washington.

Letter to the Editor Dear Editor: We are attending an institution that is preparing young men and women to go out into the field of education and teach our children and our neighbor's children. It isn't quite feasible that we can do this unless we ourselves are well informed and have high moral standards. Not only must we teach the fundamentals of writing, speaking, and mathematics, but still more important, we must.teach and maintain a philosophy of life and religion. I think that your generation and mine is more confused about religion than any previous generation. More of us are attending college than did our predecessors. The very nature of higher learning stimulates our thinking and at a time when we are exceptionally susceptible to a change in our cogitations. In order that we may not leave our Alma Mater spiritually confused and transmit this frustrated confusion on to our artless admirers, it is momentous that a study of theology be introduced into our curriculum. Theology is the critical, historical, and psychological study of religion and religious ideas. It is religion presented to us from an unbiased source and without the collection plate. It is important that it be included in the curriculum of an educational college that wishes to produce transcendent instructors. Sincerely, FRAZIER SUTTON. COLLEGIAN OUT WED.

Division of Drama Presents 'Years Ago', A Comedy, As Penthouse Production This fall quarter, Division of Drama returns to "Penthouse" production. "Years Ago," a comedy of family life, will be shown in Edens hall Blue room beginning November 30 and running until Saturday night, December 3. This type of presentation is very informal, with the audience seated about on three sides of the acting area. There is no scenery, the entire piece being acted in one interior location. "Years Ago" is biographical theater. The authoress Ruth Gordon, dramatizes her own family history in a delightful a t o ry about herself and her young ambition to go on the stage. The play goes back to the early part of the century, at about the same time as "I Remember Mama." But there is nothing particularly dated about "Years Ago," unless it is the stricter family code that prevailed. It has the timelessness of home and home ties and the eternal theme of youthful aspiration. CHOSEN PROFESSION Ruth's struggle to break down the prejudice of her straight-laced parents for the profession she has passionately chosen as her own, is indeed the same struggle that still goes on between parent and child. The play, slightly nostalgic for older theater-goers, has much to commend itself to modern college audiences— the feeling, for instance, of a great desire to do something as. a life work, even though that something is full of hardship and discouragement. Then the idea of the entire family rallying to the support of one of its members, making sacrifices, contriving means, is very touching-ly put. The play is rich in character roles. Among the characters are the testy, sea-going old captain, Ruth's father; the sweet and somewhat submerged mother; the small town boy-friend; the two high school girls, Ruth's classmates; Mr. Bagley from the YMCA; and Miss Olayin, a physical culturist; and for nice, homey atmosphere, Punk, the family cat, who has a relish for potted ferns. "Years Ago" has no sponsored performances, but the entire four nights are for the student body. Students are admitted on then- activity tickets. The charge for the general public is 75 cents, including tax. Holiday Drama Fare Planned "Christmas Ttimmings" and "The Night Before Christmas" will be presented by the Thespians during the last week of the quarter. A definite date for the presentation has not yet been set. The first, a play, is being organized and directed by Louise Collins, and the latter will be given as a choral reading, directed by Ralph Brown. The program will be presented in the college auditorium. SSC Trip To Institution Northern State hospital at Sedro- Woolley will be the destination of the trip being made by the Social Science club, Saturday, November 19. They are leaving the college at 8:30 a. m. An inspection tour of the entire institution will be made by approximately 20 club members and their adviser, Don Irish, of the Social Science department. The next meeting of the SSC will be at 8:30 p. m., Wednesday, November 30, in room 226. The subject under discussion will be "Juvenile Delinquency." / Don Gooding Heads Public information Of State Fisheries Don Gooding, former WWC student and Bellingham Herald news-writer, will head public information activities for the state department of fisheries, it was announced recently by Director Alvin (Swede) Anderson. Working out of department headquarters in Seattle, Gooding will take charge of publicity and the preparation of fisheries publications. FORMER SERVICE The appointee began work for the Herald in 1938 and served as an enlisted correspondent with the Third fleet during the war. In recent years he specialized in fisheries articles and this summer joined the Puget Sound fishing fleet as a buyer for Columbia River Packers association. While first attending WWC in 1938 he was sports editor of the WWCollegian and was editro-elect for the following year until he joined the staff of the Bellingham Herald. Returning to the campus after the war, he received his BA degree in 1948. Advice to Stagestruck Given by C Stabler By MORRIE KNUTZEN Cornelia Stabler had some words of advice for students interested in the sage when she paid a visit to Western's campus November IS. The charming veteran of many years before the floodlights believes that the best way to become an actor is simply to work at it. By taking advantage of every opportunity to perform, the neothespian develops the acuteness of feeling or perceptibility and showmanship ew Addition To Psych Staff U. of Michigan Graduate * Another recent addition, the third in'two years, was made this fall to tnV psychology staff. The new instructor is Norman Oronlund, who comes to Western after considerable) ^aching experience at Michigan State'Normal college at YpsilantL ^tln his previous assignment Oronlund was living in the upper penin- Ofatd Michigan, wnich is generally as one jof America's irs paradises. Being an ar-fisherman he states that the of wildlife was one of the tiiat hechose to come to the "This is a great deal like Michigan," he says; "except that l am anticipating milder winters. That is the only improvement that could be made over Michigan," he added loyally. He was educated at the University of Michigan where he has done some of the work toward his doctorate. Gronluhd is teaching Evaluation, Human Growth and Development, Introduction to Education, and General Psychology, this quarter. He is married and has two chil-dren, both boys, one four and one almost seven. •• the i m p a c t of which make for successful acting Miss Stabler is an enthusiastic booster for small community and college theatrical enterprises. The sagacious eyes, the hands which seem to react to emotion as fast as her facial expression, tell you that little theaters are dear td her heart. Actors, this petite perennial would have you know, must learn first to act for the sheer joy of acting. Few will ever become wealthy or famous in pursuit of the dramatic arts. BROADWAY TOUGH Through her own summer theater and other close relationships with the young actors of America, she is well acquainted with their problems and frustrations. Those few who ever make Broadway find it very difficult to make a living there. Because of money considerations only the older and better recognized actors and playwrights are hired for Broadway productions. Those younger suppliants who occasionally get a part are the exception rather than e rule. If smaller towns would develop a taste for the legitimate theater, much of the heartbreak that goes with acting could be eliminated. One such theatrical venture in Sacramento, California, is a shining example of what a town can do. Nursing Staff Keeps Trained Hand on Western's Pulse With Clinic, Hospital Like Gaul, Western's health department is divided into three parts. The dispensary, the campus hospital, and the campus school health service make up the triumvirate. Miss Elmina Bootfyby is in charge of the department, actively assisted by Mrs. Christine Cotterell and Mrs. Eloise Ulbrick. . , ,. Miss Boothby makes her headquarters in the dispensary or . —— ^sniffles and sprains ward. Here it is that students can go with their minor aches and pains. This is the office they call when illness must keep them away f r om classes. During cold epidemics as many as 50 students a day bring their troubles to these angels of mercy. Miss Boothby Is a former army nurse and a veteran of the India and Burma theatre of operations in the late war. She states, however, that WWC's dispensary is fully as interesting as was India and much more comfortable. Mrs. Ulbrick is in charge of the hospital, which consists of six beds and usually as many students. The role of the hospital is to isolate students with severe colds, flu, or other communicable disorders. Sometimes convalescent cases are also admitted. Five days of free care are provided by the school, after which a fee of $3.00 per day is charged. The rooms have been recently redecorated making it a cheerful place in which to recover. SPLINTER SERVICE Mrs. Cotterell supervises the campus school or splinter and cut finger service. Here an attempt is being made to acquaint the student teachers with the work of the school nurse. The cooperation of the parents of campus school children is actively encouraged in this enterprise. Physical examinations with particular emphasis on eye tests are an important work*df this department. ; Students oh the whole are a healthy group of people according to Miss Boothby. The percentage of absences due to illness is very low. She expressed the hope that they would' continue to avail •themselves of the medical services^^ available at the college. By reporting tttOt tOr'; ness promptly and responding *ead-. iiy to requests for p^icsJ examin^ ations, students can help in keeping In memory of the old Royal iheater. which was built during the early gold rush days, Sacramento's citizens have built a new theater.

That was the last anyone saw of him until the official raised his hand in the sign of a tuochdown. Not to say the play was planned, but fog banks have been known to hide many things. Bickering after the game is not good taste according to Hoyle. The athletic department has issued no complaint, but this column feels it should have a word. Rain and muck are not conducive to superior football playing, especially when one of the teams, namely Western, possesses one of the most devastating passing attacks in the league. A game had been played on the field the night before reducing the field to a mockery of what a-football turf is supposed to be. TALENTS DELETED Loud moans can be heard from the football coaches as Dr. Lappy waves a fond farewell to nine of his stalwarts. Karnofski, Stout, Yonlickj Lindbloom, Breivik, Clayton, Partlow, Currier and Svidran have packed away their gear for the last time leaving holes in the Viking roster which will be hard to fill. The coach is going to be busy ferreting out talent for next year's assembly. HONORS PLUS Orchids plus to Jerry Karnofski for his winning of both the inspirational award and honorary captain position. H-m-m-m-m Quotable quote: "The team that makes the most points will win tomorrow night." Coach McDonald seemed to be a trifle evasive. OUCH! Norm Hash should have no trouble copping "an all-conference position, if the players who have tackled him have revived yet. Art Svidran, offensive- end is one of the mainstays of the Viking line that gets litle credit for his all-important -work. On fourth downs Svidran is the man that drops back and kicks Western out of the hole. Wbitworth, Central and the College of Puget Sound can all tell of Svidran's pin-point punts and his long non-returnable punts.

Robert Porter Sunday morning at t h e First Presbyterian church. The Rev. Porter is director of the Westminster house at t h e University of Washington, where he works closely with the students on t h a t campus. "Students Are People Too" was t h e subject of his talk, which was a plea for expanded efforts on t h e part of t h e church t o meet the needs of students who are studying at tax-supported institutions where any form of religious instruction is forbidden by law. In his four years on the university campus, watching students come to college to train for their life work, he has found that the majority have a purely materialistic approach in choosing their life goals. LARGELY DONT'S "The religion that young people are bringing to college is largely one of "dont's," of rules and regulations, or, as he said, "A strait-jacket in which to live," and on campus they discover that the strait-jacket just isn't big enough to live in. Porter laid the blame for this inadequate faith among young people on the failure of the church to assume its responsibilities. He said that if college students are to find their way through the campus and come out educated, it will involve greater sacrifices by the church. Roxie Bergh was the soloist at the morning service, singing Scott's "The Voice in the Wilderness." The church choir, directed by Don Walter, sang "Let the People Praise Thee, O God" with incidental solo by Dr. Keith Murray.

Straggling in Friday around 11 pjn. after a long and tiring journey, they were given a hospitable welcome by the Corvallis girls. Registration took place, and then the girls were ushered to various sorority and co-op houses. Western's first game was scheduled for Saturday morning, at 10 a. m. against CPS. The West-ernites couldn't quite make the last punch, and CPS chalked up a score of 2-1. This didn't dampen Western's spirits though, when they fast-stepped BJC for a victory of 3-1. Saturday evening all university and college teams were represented at a mass banquet. Each school sang their Alma Mater, and a fight song adaptable to hockey. The Forest Grove squad were the most effective when they displayed their talents with a group of original hockey songs. After the banquet, a square dance-mixer was held in the Memorial Union ballroom. Sunday morning at 9:40 a. m., WWC plodded through the mud and water to defeat Portlands Blazerettes. The score was 3-0.

I On Survey Made By Research Bureau At a special meeting Tuesday night in the Bellingham Hotel, Bellingham business people were presented with a report on a t r a de promotion survey which was made under the direction of Dr. Maurice Freehill, director of t h e college research bureau. The report, based on the results of 1,000 questionnaires which were answered by both residents of the city and of rural areas in the county, pointed out several factors which could be causing people to trade In other cities. Over seventy local merchants were present at the meeting and all agreed that active steps should b e* taken to see that the matters be acted upon, in order to stimulate business. SOME FAULTS According to the survey the major complaints were daylight saving time, parking, Saturday bank closing, untidy streets and poor merchandising. Committees were appointed by John F. Wallin, Chamber of Commerce president, to investigate each of the problems and take appropriate action. Mayor Don Satterlee spoke to the group offering them the full cooperation of the city government; He pointed out that the unfortunate thing in such situations is that everyone recognizes the need for improvement but it takes a long time to get any action. On behalf of the Retail Trades Bureau, Chairman Howard Wasley commended the Chamber of Commerce for its efforts and stated that the survey should mark the beginning of a broad program of improvement. Stannard Baker was the chairman of the survey. HAVE you PLAYED.. BINGLOO? Bellingham's newest and most exciting amusement center.

It is hidden accessory and should be a part of woman's everyday costume; the "final touch," like a clean 'ker-chief in the upper pocket of a man's jacket. Perfume is the accent that points up the costume as a whole. Fragrance gives a woman a sense of inner feminine security. It makes her feel more attractive, and, in truth, she is more attractive. It surrounds her in an aura of femininity •whether she selects a mysterious type of fragrance, a highly sophisticated scent, or a light, flowery perfume. It is part of the face she presents to the public/Women should realize that the kind or nature of the perfume worn is as indiviually personal as the flip of a hat brim OP the shade of a lipstick. Proper applications of perfume should be to "pulse spots" such as inside wrists, inside crook of arms, at the temples, at the side of the neck, even behind the knees, wherever the heat of the body tends to accentuate the fragrance. A woman should not consider herself quite dressed until she has applied her perfume. With an atomizer, it may be sprayed in a fine mist about her person so that the scent clings to her clothing. The smart women always applies a drop or two on the handkerchief so that each time she opens her handbag a lovely whiff greets her.

Velvet A§aind In Spotlight 1 In the good old days, photographers Would never think of taking a lady's portrait without using a velvet drape around her shoulders. Velvet is flattering, and the fashionable photographer of years back was well aware of the fact. But no more so than the fashion-conscious woman of today. She knows that this fall, velvet is again in the news, and she knows that the magic of it can be used all the way from "just a little trim" to the all-velvet dress or suit. Although velvet invariably looks expensive it isn't necessarily so. It is as apt to apply to the pipings and buttons of a smart but inexpensive wool Jersey dress as to the collar and cuffs of a high-priced suit. An excellent example fo the former is a simply tailored dress, moderate in cost, of thin beige twejed with large patch pockets on t he skirt and a brown velvet c o l l ar matched in a narrow tailored belt. The all-velvet, dress or suit being featured this season is in black, navy, brown or dark green. It may be a very trim shirtwaist dress belted in snakeskin. Again it may have that after-five romantic look as does a lovely full-skirted dress with a deep f-neckline framed with a collar. More formal is the above-the- ankle velvet dinner dress or the sophisticated-looking black velvet suit trimmed in black fox. Casual or formal velvet will make a good showing this season.

"Well, I like the lounge and the food they have in the lounge, those ice cream bars. Especially those 50-50's"' Oh, those things that are 50 percent popsickle and 50 percent ice cream?"

After making my way out of the ounge, (an hour later and having hat lounge aroma—that of a smoke x gt;mb), I met two Bellinghamites, [#nn Hunt and Vernon "Wimp" [jestrude.

College Cinderella (Contnued from page 2) for the contest. I almost forgot. This ball was a charity affair, all proceeds going to the Huntoon Poker club drive.

Mathes house took first prize in the house displays, boiling- the EasternSavages. Senior hall came in second with an honorable mention for that division. The senior class won in the window displays; the junior class received honorable mention. The sophomore's float won firstprize, USCF "The House" taking honorable mention. The Western band, the Homecoming booklet,and the 12 page Collegian also received favorable comment. A very close race marked the skitscontest, Edens hall finally taking the trophy for the fourth straight time. Pi Kappa Delta and Arion clubtied for honorable mention. Confusion reigned in the decision on the winner of the skits. Porterexplains that the decision was made as follows: In balloting on the skits, the judges made two voteseach, giving a certain number of points for their first place choice, and a' lesser number of points for thehonorable mention choice. When balloting was through, it was found that there was a three way tie fcrfirst place between Edens hall, Arion club, and Pi Kappa Delta. However, Edens hall had received onemore first place vote than the other two, and was thus announced the winner. NEXT YEAR'S- BALLOT Tentative plans are being made to change the ballot next year to. exclude possibilities of ties. Porterpoints out that there was a tie last year also. The totem pole, made by Ed Angevine, which was in thecenter of the dance floor at the Ball may be moved to the student center, Porter says. I GOPOGO—Pogo didn't win in the national elections held November 4, but the gals from Edens hall,campaigning for "Possums in Politics" did take first prize in the Homecoming skits contest. Edens won after a very close decision by the judges. ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1952 November 7 - Page 2 ---------- Pollsters Tricked Again According to the Orange Coast College Barnacle student newspaper, "Astudent who acquires the art of critical thinking achieves one of the greatest rewards of a collegeeducation. It comes through hours of reflective thought and repeated experiences in working towardsystematic solution to problems." The "reflective thought" item is what has been perplexing the votingpopulation for the past few months of campaigning. About 35% of the public has been sitting on the fencebeing difficult, especially for the poll takers who weren't sure who was going to win because of thatundecided 35%. This 35% is made up of persons who have decided not to vote straight party tickets,but have decided to find out the qualifications of the candidates before sticking their necks out. Thafswhy, they didn't know until they pulled the curtain to the voting machine which candidate they wouldchoose. Next Tuesday is the primary election here at Western, in a national election as well as in acollege election, good government depends upon the aptitudes and traits of the individuals up beforethe public. Do YOU know who the candidates are who are running for the Board of Control? Are you one of the 35% who will be using your critical thinking abilities in our school election? For the sake of thewelfare of student government, lefs hope so! Uncle Harry Casts Ballot; Falls Out of Bedstead By MARYANN DEXTER Tuesday, November 4, Uncle Harry cast his ballot in the national elections. Wednesdaymorning, November 5, Uncle Harry moaned, turned over in bed, and fell out. Wednesday evening UncleHarry was still on the floor where he had fallen. He didn't have enough energy to get up. After all thecampaigning he had done for Ike he was mighty tired. Thursday morning. Uncle Harry* felt much betterand decided to celebrate Ike's victory. As he hobbled down the stairs to breakfast (that fall out of bed-didn't do him much good) he noticed that Lettie and Hester, his two sisters, were gone; at least theyweren't around the kitchen stove arguing as they usually were. He sneaked out the front door, hoppedinto his Model A, and speeded off to the lounge. There he could have his breakfast in peace. He satdown at a table and what was the topic of conversation? Why politics—of course. "I'm for IKE." "I'mmadly for ADLAI." All day long Uncle Harry only heard people discussing politics—by evening he wastired of arguing. He had a huge black eye—he should have known better than to argue with thatfullback. This morning Uncle Harry didn't WESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAN Since 1899 MemberAssociated Collegiate Press Published by the Associated Students of Western Washington College ofEducation, Bellingham, Washington.

Will you see Uncle Harry do it November 13? ptesiie Cltat There havebeen comments directed to me from various individuals on campus who thought the lounge is beingmisused. Since I haven't had time to spend my usual Monday nights watching the fights on TV I haven'tseen any "atrocities" committed. But I would like to point out a few things to you so that you yourselfmight be more conscious of how we use our facilities. The furniture, card tables and TV set belong toyou, the Associated Student, since they were purchased with money in the Student Facilities fund.Each student pays 50 cents each quarter into this fund for such equipment. If new furniture to replacethat broken has to be bought, or repairs made, at the same time purchases are made for other thingsthis fee will have to be raised. You don't want that! Therefore, here are a few things to watch in order tokeep costs p-t a minimum: the card tables are for cards and checkers—use them for these games; thesmall tables are for ash trays and books, not to sit on; the chairs are to sit on, not to rest feet upon. Just remember that you are paying for the repairs or replacements! We are not going to hire a "policeman" to see that no mischief is done; that is an insult. Nor are we asking one of the college administrationto keep check of the place. I am asking each and every student to see that our lounge is kept in anorderly condition. MARKHARDIE. ASB President. Is Edens Hall Over Lake of Oil? By DAVE GAY IsEden's hall perched over an underground lake of oil? Will Se-home hill settle gently to a petroleumgrave? And will dear old Western support itself on royalties from barrels of crude petroleum? These are all questions which might pop into someones mind while awaiting the results of experiments performedby a sharp-eyed freshman gal. Although a music major, Shirley Martin is taking Science 101 thisquarter, studying geology, and just maybe her newly acquired knowledge of rocks will pay off. Whilelooking from a window in Edens hall, she spied layers of a variety of shale known as bentonite, an oilbearing shale. Taking her little pick in hand, she promptly gathered a small mound of the shale, much tothe discomfiture of her roommate. Shirley took her find to the lab, performing experiments under theguidance of Dr. Fred Knapman, Science department. She reports that bits of the rock flamed whenheated in a crucible over a bunsen burner. Next she heated the shale in a retort. At first all she collected was plain H20, but presently a yellow, oily liquid started dripping into the test tube. Shirley hasn'tcompleted the experiment yet, but she says that the product "smells like some type of petroleum."Perhaps a note to the oil companies already set to bring oil from Canada . . .? Refreshing Pause ByWILL KNUTSEN Between the exams and Thanksgiving, When students are weary, forlorn, Comesthe pause that refreshes the scholars Not coke—it is Armistice morn. 'Tis time to rest up fromHomecoming And time to remember the fun. Don't try to remember, in early November, Thosethings that you have left undone. Forget about all of the figures From Math class you recall so dim;Just don't think of this kind of figures— Consider the word's homonym. For Armistice Day is so happy A time not to do, but to dream; That the days that will follow are better, Past days, not as bad as theyseem. Students Eye Election; Explain GOP Win By ALMA HANDELAND Why do you think Gov. AdlaiE. Stevenson lost the presidential campaign? Sweeping both popular and electoral votes, Gen. DwightD. Eisenhower has been elected President of the United States. A poll on campus brought a land-slide of varied reasons from students. SHIRLEE BITNE Y, s e n i o r : * "Stevenson lost the election over theissues of communism and corruptness in our government and participation in the Korean war." NEVAJOHNSON, sophomore: "Truman's entrance into the campaign lost a lot of votes for Stevenson."COLLEEN MOORE, sophomore: "Most people were afraid that Stevenson wouldn't take enoughinterest in trying to stop the Korean war." BETTY GROCOTT, senior giving a Home Ec major'sviewpoint: "Part of the reason the women population voted for Eiseinhower was because he has a wifeand a family and Stevenson's family is not united." ROLAND QUINN, freshman: "I believe theDemocratic party has been in too long. They've gotten stale on the job!" TOM PATENALL, junior: "Most- Classics Offered by Greta Menzel Presenting fourteen selections from: such classical composers asGrieg, Strauss, and Mozart, Greta Menzel, lyric soprano and prima donna with Vienna, Havana and New York City Center Opera companies, gave the fourth in the fall quarter Artist and Lecture series. MissMenzel arrived here directly from Vienna where she has been appearing in opera. She w i l l go fromVancouver, B. C, to Alaska where she will tour, returning to her native city from Alaska. Roundlyapplauded by a mixed crowd of students and townspeople, Miss Menzel displayed the great expressionand personality in her singing which has won her such wide acclaim as an interpreter of Mozart. Thebrilliant soprano began her training in Vienna at the Academy, studying there for seven years. She firstcame to the United States in 1948, when she toured the country. Commenting on the A-M building,Miss Menzel exclaimed, "The acoustics are wonderful; it is a pleasure to sing in such an auditorium!"Miss Menzel was accompanied on the piano by Mr. Thomas Mayer of Havana, Cuba.

WHATCOM DARIGOLD Phone 314 ly because of Eisenhower's down-to-earth tactics.He seems more like the common man. He's home-spun!" BILLIE REPOSA, senior: "I think that if therehad been a few more weeks of campaigning he would have won. The'Republicans weren't doing a goodcampaigning job." LORRAINE FRIBERG, junior: "I think Stevenson's chances would have been better ifTruman had not campaigned for him." RONALD CAMPIELD, sophomore: "The people were tired ofhaving Democrats in Washington." VERN RENIUS, senior: "No one had ever heard of Stevenson untilJuly. If the Democrats had run Kefauver they would still be in office" CHARLES DENNIS, freshman: "Ithink it was because of Truman's statements, Stevenson wasn't well known, and Eisenhower'spopularity." BOB BALL, junior: "Eisenhower won because he said if he was elected president, hewould go to Korea and straighten matters out himself." DICK DALE, senior: "I think that probably themain reason was that the public wanted a change. They thought that Eisenhower could give them thatchange and Stevenson couldn"t. They wanted something done about Korea. Frankly, it surprisedme!" NANCY FEHLHABER, freshman: "Because of Truman's interference in the campaign andEisenhower's overwhelming popularity."

NANNY MOUSEMen of Western were bedazzled for approximately one week by extra fancy smiles from certaininmates of at least two organized houses for female students. But there was a definite purpose behind those grimaces: dates for the Homecoming dance! Senior Hall Scragsters accepted a challenge fromSpencer Hall Spinsters to see which establishment possesed the most charm when it came to getting dates for the dance. It is rumored that the Mens Residence hall assisted nobly, as well as olderbrothers of certain freshmen, while the Whidbey Naval base and the Blaine Air Force base were in stand-by capacities.* It is even believed that gas was bought for a few men who claim Seattle as home.Came the fatal night and each house believed success to be in the bag. Various reports have beenreceived that men rang doorbells at the two houses without knowing who the lucky girl was, but thatlittle situation was soon remedied. The gals weren't at all bashful about introducing themselves. There are various stories going around about the outcome. But this being a "political year" they just aren'tgoing to be printed! Life is too dear for that. Anyway, the deal ended by representatives of both housesfiguring it out on a percentage basis. The Spinsters claim they could have had two dates each; theScrags claim that they were there! Scrags won by a small percentage and according to their storycollected the winnings between 12:30 and 1 a. m. It is further stated that somebody lost one shoe heeland that a small dog got flattened in the shuffle. The standard comment from both houses is thestatement of the century: "Well, we had a date, didn't we?" The story hasn't ended yet: the feud is onfor Homecoming 1953. So, fellows, that gleam in their eyes isn't because it's leap year—they're justgetting ready for 1953! Spinsters report that they offered a challenge for the Junior Prom, but that thereply from the Scragsters was: "Nope, that costs money." Guests Entertained By FreshmenApproximately 400 guests were entertained for Parents' day Sunday by the freshmen and transferstudents. At this time the parents were given the opportunity to meet the counselor.s and see thecampus. The students were invited ot take their guests to an organ recital in the auditorium. Thechoir sang under the direction of Bernard Regier. The program was brought to a close by an informalcoffee hour in the Studio Gallery of the Arts building. Rheba D's Feast Rheda D's, girls PE, Health andRecreation major and minor club, sponsored a dinner Tuesday evening in the Campus school auditorium. Mary Knibbs, guest speaker at the dinner, talked of her experiences at the Olympic games in Helsinki.Miss Knibbs also told her experiences while traveling through Europe.

Once the Savages •put up a terrific goal linestand that stopped Western at the two yard line. Tom Rassley booted three times to get Western out oftrouble. Towards the end of the half the Vikings could no longer be stopped. Eastern took a biggamble and tried for first down with four inches to go and were repulsed.

Some of thepossibilities for these (Continued on page 4) Dr. Haggard, who felt the purchase of these items wasrightfully the responsibility of the College administration. Dr. Haggard further stated in an interviewyesterday, that he hoped to have a joint committee from the ASB and the Administration compile alist of such, borderline items, and assign responsibility for their purchase. Wil Knutsen, chairman ofstudent facilities committee, also reported on the progress of work being done on the Lakewoodproperty. SUGGEST KEROSENE The committee, according to Knutsen, recommended the boardabandon any _plans for installing electric lights at the cabin. Instead, they suggested kerosene lanternsbecause of the expense. Knutsen also reported that the row boat which is missing from the LakeWhatcom property, is not insured against theft. The committee is investigating the cost of suchinsurance for the rest of the student- owned property. Dr. .'Donald MacPhail, geography, sat on theboard in place of Dr. Critchfield, who was busy with the Conservation workshop | Dr. Critchfield is one ofthe three regular faculty board of control members.

William Masselos, pianist, will appear at the College auditorium Tuesday,August 3, as a part of the Summer quarter A L series. Mr. Masselos, still in his twenties, has wonmany honors at the famed Juilliard School of Music where he received his musical training. In the pastfew years Mr. Masselos has traveled throughout the United States and Canada performing beforevaried and critical audiences. Besides going on this extensive concert tour, Mr. Masselos has mademany radio and television appearances as well as making records for both MGM and Columbia."VIRTUOSITY . . . TREMENDOUS" Marjory Fisher of the San Francisco News, described Mr.Masselos' virtuosity as tremendous. This assertion made by one of the foremost music critics onthe West Coast will be illustrated Tuesday evening. To discerning Bellingham music lovers WilliamMasselos will play selections of lasting interest. The first portion of his progrm consists of variations on a theme by Bach, Liszt. Following this selection comes "Kreisleriana" by Schumann which wasdescribed by Eric Mc- (Continued on page 4) of the British Empire Games and is slated to participate inthe discus event on Tuesday, August 3. The Ray Ciszek coached discus hurler, hailing from NewWestminster, B. C, won his spot in this event against the British Empire's best. FOUR LETTER MAN Swalwell came to Western in the fall of 1951.

" This is the reason the Summer quarter Writer,Western's literary magazine, was folded for the summer by its editorial staff last Tuesday afternoon. Anexperimental activity, the Summer edition was to be an extension of the regular Writer put out during theregular school year. It was an attempt to furnish summer school students with an opportunity to see their work in print, and to all of them to get their literary ideas before the public NO IDEAS? The questionarises, do the Summer school students have any ideas? The showing makes it seem improbable. Surely, people who have been teaching for a number of years have something to say about life or some facetthereof, whether in poetry, fiction, or essay. Or maybe the reason is just lethargy. - ' _ We may find outin a number of years when another idealistic young man comes forward to make another try. Composer of Traditional Song Reminisces on Days of Yore By SANDEE HARTSPIELD High above the bay's bluewaters, Stands our own Sehome. Guarded all around by mountains Crowned by Baker's dome. I wonder how many of us know who wrote this song we sing each year as our Alma Mater? I met her the otherday and was fascinated by her story. She was Miss Ada Hogle when she wrote our school song. -Shewrote the song for a farewell to some students she had taught for four consecutive years. They liked it so well, that in 1915, it was adopted as the Alma Mater for Western. RETIRED Not long after this MissHogle retired from her position of teaching in the Art and Industrial Arts department and went to New York. One of her sttidents was Miss Hazel Breakey, who will soon retire from the Art department. InNew York she met and married Frederick B. Abbott. They lived in New England until several years laterwhen they returned together to Bellingham and built a home Which Mrs. Abbott designed on the site ofwhat is now 513 High street. I.visited her and was amazed and awed by her home which is a veritablemuseum. It is furnished in a way which to the casual onlooker would appear to be modest. She showedme a tiny melodeon which is over a hundred years old. She pointed out a hand-painted steel engraving of Franklin in the French Court, also over a century old. Her floors are covered with hooked rugs whichshe made. All around the spacious living room and dining room are carved pieces of furniture that eithershe or her late husband made. The walls are brightened by oil paintings she has painted over the years. Her house is like something out of * Joanna Spyri book for children. The chalet-like structure "of thehouse combines with its landscape to isolate it from the busy life around it. Outside, instead of theformal gardens common to our culture, she has the natural flowers of our state growing at will.Although now widowed and living alone, Mrs. Abbott is far from a lady of leisure. She is kept busy withher club work and does art work for different clubs around town. She has designed some stained glass windows depicting the Washington state flowers for the Bellingham Museum. She speaks of doing anew painting of the lovely lilacs which bloom annually in her back yard. She displayed a hospitalityincomparably warm, and invited me to visit her and bring my friends. She also finds it a little hard tobelieve that WWC is still using her song, as a few years ago there was a controversy as to whether ornot it would be kept as our Alma Mater. I think we are all rather glad it was kept. The Bride SpeaksThe Mountain stands. What riches held within its care I cannot tell. I only go with pick in hand To dig for golden ore. Your dear voice calls. What mysteries that love can hold I am not sure. I only trust, as youcommand, We find its wealth secure. Life's long road bends. What lies for us beyond that turn I wish Iknew. I only hope, as hand in hand I take this path with you. —Mary McCollum Martin.

Adviser - •• - Pat A , l an Across The Board:Deficient Laws Are Hindrance To Efficient Legislation By TOM MANNEY Man, it seems, is a law-making animal. Maybe not all men, but at least the men who look to the Romans for part of their background do, and that's us. Also, we are law-breaking animals, and consequently, law-enforcing animals. It all seemsto be part of the proverbial, vicious circle, and sane or not, that's the way we are. • It follows then, thatas the members of the Board of Control are men (embracing women), so they are law-making, law-breaking and law-enforcing animals. This, by definition. What all this means is that when the BOC isn'tcutting the budget (and even then sometimes) it is making, breaking and enforcing laws. This is not tobe criticized—it's cultural. But it is of value to understand how and why these laws are used and mis-used. THREE DOCUMENTS USED But enough of these generalizations. Specifically, there are threesets of laws which are. intended to govern the Board of Control. They are: (1) The ASB Constitution, (2)The ASB By-laws, and (3) "Sturgis Standard Code of Parliamentary Procedure." Theoretically, thesethree documents cover any situation t h at arises. "In all matters not governed by its constitutionand by-laws this organization shall be govern-; ed by Sturgis . . ." according to article 7 of the By-laws.Theory, however, does not always conform to fact, and such was the case at the board meeting lastWednesday. The problem was this: Wil Knutson made a point of order that he did not believe a certain motion was legal, according to parliamentary procedure. None of the three documents mentionedabove either affirm or refute Knutson's position. "Sturgis" does say, however, "As soon as the member has stated the point of order, the chairman must 'rule' on it . . . or he may refer the matter to theassembly for a decision . . . " Chairman Henry Howe referred this question to the board, and theboard upheld Knutson's point of order. Thus, in effect, it was necessary to make a new law to fit theoccasion. PROBLEM NOT CRITICISM This observer, and others at the meeting, cannot see that that the BOC is either given or denied this power. In a word, there is a crippling deficiency in the lawsgoverning Board of Control procedure. The present board is aware of this deficiency, and I repeat thatthis is not intended as a criticism of any one or all of the present members. I have devoted "Across theBoard" to this problem because I feel that it is as important to every member of the student body as itis to any member of the board. THE BOC DECODES HOW MONEY WILL BE SPENT. The laws they work by, effect the results they achieve. SOLUTION INDICATED No immediate solution has beenofficially suggested to date. However, a plan proposed by Dr. Van Aver is scheduled for considerationat the beginning of next fall quarter. The plan would provide for a group separate from the board to decide questions of interpretation of constitutional and procedural issues. An occurance at lastWednesday's meeting suggested to this reporter that an impartial, disinterested arbitrator (orarbitrators) could be invaluable on such technical questions. Dr. MacPhail sat on the boardWednesday in Dr. Critchfield's place. Since it was his first meeting, he was unfamiliar with thebackground of opinion, and therefore, necessarly objective. "I'm here only in an advisory capacity," hesaid, and he limited his comment to technical procedure. Advice of this nature, from this observer's viewpoint, is the kind that will be effective.

By TOM MANNEY Usually when a graduate comeshome to Western for summer quarter it is not considered news. But when that graduate is StuartFresk, and he is here as Director of the Summer Recreation program, then big news is in the making. A brief glance at the recreation schedule for this summer will show the extent and variety of the newdirector's ambition. A short visit will prove that he has an abundance of enthusiasm and experience todraw upon in carrying out the program. Fresk is an outdoor man by choice and habit. It began, herecalled, here at Western, when his roommate made a photographer out of him. M. A. Allan, Assistant Professor of Journalism here, was that roommate. Since then Fresk has collected more than 2,000pictures of the Northwest's o u t d o o r recreation spots. Hiking, skiing and fishing he selects as his own preferences, and he has been to about every place on this summer's program. His home is in Longview, Wash., where he teaches photography and music in the junior high school. He lists the lack of exercise as the main drawback of teaching, and offers this as another interest in outdoor recreation.Featuring . . . COSTUME JEWELRY F. STANLEY NORMAN Jeweler Hotel Leopold Lobby Ph. 374 This is the first year Fresk has been here since 1950, and his first year as director of the recreation program. He has assisted in the program, however, since his undergraduate years. There are also two youngMr. Fresks, both of whom are learning to appreciate the outdoor Northwest at the rugged ages of three and six. Fresk has lived in the Northwest since he was four. He says he feels like a native, and it'seasy to tell that he talks like one. As a regular student Fresk was a feature writer on the Collegian staffand also worked on campus day skits, among other activities. Needless to say, he also worked on the Summer Recreation program. Party Exhibits Acquired Skill By RODGER WILLIAMS At 11 a. m.Sunday, July 25, 24 leg weary but determined Western mountaineers stood atop Mt. Baker. Thismarked the 34th time representatives of WWC have surmounted the 10,827 ft. peak. SMALLPARTY The size of the party was small compared to the size of some previous expeditions to thesummit. In 1919^ when the first successful climb was made, 77 people reached the top. In 1921, 96made the climb. From Kulshan cabin, which served as base camp for the climb, the party began their8% hour upward journey. At 2:30 a. m. the group left the cabin. The light from a silver moon helpedthem find their way across the lower glaciers until the sun came up at approximately 4 a. m. As the sunrose above the horizon, its light, falling on the hikers, cast long eerie shadows that disappeared at timesinto bottomless blue crevasses. NO HINDRANCES Though there were many fierce looking obstaclesin view, none of any consequence hindered the party from reaching the top. In fact, record time wasmade to "The Saddle," the final ridge up which the final straight line approach to the top is made. * Atthe saddle, which was the first outcropping of rock the climbers encountered since the very outset of thejourney, ropes which had been used on hazardous areas below were shed, and lunch was eaten.This was the first time many of the members of the group had (Continued on Page 4) HANDW0VENSSKIRTS, STOLES GIFT ITEMS JUST 3 BLOCKS DOWN FROM COLLEGE CLAIRE NIX 510 StatePhone 3607-R Keep Washington Green •CRUSH YOUR SMOKES Sponsored by PREVENTFOREST FIRES! Puget Sound Pulp and Timber Company ---------- Western Washington Collegain - 1954 July 30 - Page 4 ---------- Memorable Soloist Classed With Biggs, Fox By DOROTHY HARBISON The sixth concert of theSummer Artist Series in the auditorium of Western Washington College was presented by Claire Coci at the console of the memorial organ. In his introduction, Dr. W. W. Haggard, president of the College,stated that Miss Coci, who was born in New Orleans, Louisiana, became a church organist at the age of sixteen, progressing from that point until now she stands at the peak of her profession. In Bellingham,Dr. Haggard bracketed her with E. Power Biggs and Virgil Fox, both of whom have been heard on thesame instrument. COCI VIRTUOSO Miss Coci played a terrific program with power and a highdegree of virtuosity. Opening with the Vivaldi-Bach "Concerto No. 11," Op. 3 in D Minor was a happychoice since it gave a foretaste of the exciting fare to follow, with its four movements, Grave, Fugue,Largo and Allegro. The dolorous "Choral Prelude" Opus 122, No. 9 of Johannes Brahms with its quietbeauty and lovely harmony led into the delicate, tinkling phrases of three of Haydn's little gems, theMinuette, Allegro and Andante from "The Musical Clocks," written in 1742. The fourth number was asubstitution. Instead of the programmed Andriessen "Chorale," Miss IRA YEAGER SPORTINGGOODS EVERYTHING FOR YOUR HUNTING FISHING NEEDS *EVINRUDE MOTORS * REINELLBOATS 1313V2 State St. IN BELLINGHAM NEWBERRY'S Coci played the, to quote her owndsecription, "Monumental" B Minor "Chorale" of Cesar Franck, composer and teacher of the organ. Itwas her wish that it should leave a spiritual message with her hearers. Miss Coci next turned to twoworks of Marcel Dupre, the French organist and composer with whom she studied, "Filause" (Suite Bret-onne), an intricate work on the order of a perpetuum mobile, with a sotto voce interpolation, followedby a set of eleven variations on a French Christmas carol, which the artist explained was written during a tour of the United States, each variation representing a different city. LISZT IN 4 Listz's "Preludeand Fugue on BACH," the four letters representing the four notes in the German scale, B flat, A, Cand B natural, which is represented by H in German. The spectacular result is Liszt at hiscomplicated best, with chords, pedal interludes, scale passages, the hands running contrapuntally andin unison, and a brief period of calm leading to the final massive chords. The almost ecclesiastical"Chant de Paix" by Langlois employed the Vox Humana to a throbbing accompaniment forming astriking contrast to the final number, Leo Sowerby's powerful "Pageant," in which a quiet theme wasintroduced by the pedals, developed on the manuals, gradually building to a martial finale which closed on a dissonant chord. Miss Coci was most generous with her encores, playing "The Mist," by Doty;Daquin's "The Cuckoo," in answer to a request; the Third Toccata of Henri Dallier and finally, the"Fugue on Frescobaldi," also by Langlais, which Miss Coci said had been described by a southerncritic as a "feat for the feet" since it is played entirely on the pedals. With that the audience permittedthe lights to be dimmed and the concert to come to a close. Holly's Men's Shop SUMMERFURNISHINGS for MEN 106 W.

These are the two main questions for which the Collegian staff hasbeen looking for answers. They have been doing this by means of a readership survey poll. Such a poll consists of a few people asking a lot of people what they read and what they would like to read. Theyhope to interview 200 Collegian readers selected as much at random as possible, hoping that thesewill be representative of all readers. The purpose of the survey is ultimately to improve the contentsof the Collegian. That is, to give the readers what they want to read. Whether or not enough significantinformation will be revealed from this poll is not certain. The results will be printed in the Collegian. TheCollegian staff is grateful to those students who made this survey possible through their cooperation, and to Dr. Budd in the Research? department, whose suggestions and assistance wereindispensable.

LAST LAP STEEP The remainder of the ascent was the slowest and the steepest. Cramponswere strapped to the feet to prevent slipping. Steps had to be chopped in the face of the steepest part,known as the "Roman Wall." At what appeared to be the top many groans of disappointment were heard as the party found they had to cross a large expanse of nearly level snow field to reach the smallhaystack which marked the top. WEATHER GOOD Marvelous weather accompanied the ascent.According to some of. the veteran climbers, the conditions of visibility exceeded those of any previousclimb they had made. From the summit one could see the San Juan islands to the west; Mt. Rainier tothe south; and the Frazer river in Canada to the north.
