WASHINGTON STATE NORMAL SCHOOL, BELLINGHAM, WASHINGTON Friday, August 12, 1932. STODDARD CHOSEN EDITOR Normalite NO NEWZ O. K„ AMERICA! BUSINESS GOES UP YE PROF'S DIARY By Sammie. Nothing drastically unusual ever happens any more—no kidnapings— no Honolulu murders, no violent bank robberies, no wars in Japan and China—why even Gandhi has laid down his claim to publicity and quietly stolen away! And when the big newspapers of the country fail to get excited over anything except the weather—what in heaven's name can you expect of a Normalite writer? Bat then, down underneath—maybe things are in a two-inch headline state of affairs! What with people starving and the government just a little tense at the foundation and America's street mob ready to throw a bomb whenever a brick falls out —well! Maybe next year's Normalite writer will have considerable more to write about! Countryman Named New Representative To Board of Con itrol Miss Linda Countryman has been appointed by President C. H. Fisher as faculty representative to the Board of Control to succeed Herbert C. Ruckmick, who will be on a leave of absence next year. Miss • Countryman's appointment was announced at a faculty meeting last Tuesday. Each year the president of the school appoints a faculty representative to the board. Mr. Ruckmick has held this position for four years. o DEBBY ALTOSE HEADS ANNUAL FALL MIXER Board Votes to Help Purchase New Scholarship Pins A bright little ray of sunshine from Hartford. The Hat Corporation of America plans to. increase operations to capacity this week with 1,200 employes on full time. That's pretty good news. For a while America was too darned big-headed to wear a hat—it's a relief to see the old corporation on full time again. Another little item. The Otis Elevator Company has received an order for fourteen new elevators. That looks to us as if business was going up! Test time is coming again! Think, students, what that means! If teachers didn't test you no one would ever know that you and Hoover really do have something in common after all. No one would ever know that behind that veneer there is actually a brain. No one would ever know that—(Say! Who threw that piano?) We read that a father from Pittsburgh seared the lips of his young son with a red hot poker to cure him of swearing. We know just lots of people who'd be completely "burned up" if anyone tried that on them! This poem may be A disgrace But it is here To fillip space So take a look And pass right by With just a sympathetic sigh Helene Madison is going professional, so we hear. Well! To the victor belong the spoils; and Helene is most assuredly a victor. After racing for every record in the swimming world and winning a great many of them, it's our opinion that she has nearly earned the right to earn! We venture to add—more power to you—Helene Madison! Oh yes! We offer the most profound congratulations to the brand new editor of the Northwest Viking! We know you'll make a good editor, Jimmie, but just the same—here's a load of luck! i bin on a diat fer so long that me stumuc feles lik nuthin els on erth but a empti barul with a lot uv em-ti ar in it whooshin aroun. an wen i git wayd i way about thre pounds les an a hors, and thats givin tha hors tha edge.

Debby Altose was appointed by the Board of Control at their regular meeting last Monday as chairman of the fall mixer. This event, an annual affair, will be presented to the students during the opening week of school fall quarter. Miss Altose, for the past year a prominent student at the Normal school, has had much experience along this line and is already forming her various committees. Society Receives Money In order that the Scholarship So ciety might have financial aid in the purchase of their pins, the Board of Control, at a previous meeting, voted them $25. At Monday's meeting it was moved, second ed and carried that the money be paid them as soon as possible. Viking Applications Read Letters from Jimmie Stoddard and Roger Chapman, applicants for editor and business manager of the Northwest Viking, were read and discussion followed concerning their eligilibity for these offices and the advisability of appointing these officers before the end of the quarter. A letter of application for the editorship of the Viking from Helen Notrhen was read and discussed. Presdient Gives Report President Fisher gave a revised report of the grade standards set up by the scholarship committee. Mrs, Burnet was interviewed as to whether the delayed election of the editor and business manager would affect the running of the Viking. Motion made and seconded that the issue be dropped until later in the week and that a special meeting of the board should be held to take moer definite action when the stand of the faculty is known. -o Olympic Books Now on Display A very timely display and bibliography on the Olympic Games has been arranged in the children's library by Ray Wimer under the direction of Miss Beatrice Doty. A poster of Discobulos (discus thrower) begins the exhibit and is followed by several illustrated books on Greek life giving the historical background of the Olympic Games. The bibliography which has been compiled is as follows: About the Olympic Games ". . . when the Hero mounted to the spheres To guard his Games, where might for mastery strives With might " From Pindar's Olympic Odes, Greek Athletic Sports and.Festivals; by N E . Gardiner; detailed description of the games, their or- (Contlnued on Page Two) Retrospection without Regrets WHAT AN EDITOR thinks, if anything. . . . The present editor has completed four quarters work in that position and finds himself a little wiser perhaps, and somewhat more disillusioned person. . . . Four, quarters as editor of the Northwest Viking . . . serving as a buffer between student and faculty viewpoints . . . always fighting for the side he thinks most worthy . . . . . . and surprising himself at times by being successful. He became editor in the fall of 1932 . . . full of ideas . . . teeming with ambition . . . ruthless in an effort to "reform," to apply traditional newspaper practices on a school paper. He has gradually and somewhat painfully modified his tactics . . . he hopes he still has his ambition and his ideas . . . he also hopes he has learned to temper his ruthlessness with reason. FAVORED with a large and capable journalism class, Volume 31 was born. Issue number one was "Welcomania" to the "Normal by the Mountains and the Sea". . . number two a special election edition with student body and class election results hot off the press . . . Blue and White, Homecoming special, six pages, was the next featured edition . . . and then—firewtorks—a tabloid edition . . . on yellow paper . . . "The Sou'east Norseman" by name . clever in places . . . daring throughout . . . and the surprising part was that those hadest hit were the best sports about it. THE HEALTH SITUATION next occupied the attention of the Northwest Viking, which made definite suggestions, in a front page editorial, for an unbiased study and report of the complaints leveled at the health department. The result was reforms which were entirely favorable and satisfactory and have, in the hope of the editor, definitely settled the question. THE VIKING next carried a scoop in the form of an interview with Dr. M. Lyle Spencer, of the University of Washington, in which was suggested the possibility of Bellingham Normal taking over the entire school of education from the university. AN EXCLUSIVE project of the Viking was the sponsoring of a contest to select the Normal's most representative co-ed. This contest aroused much enthusiasm throughout the school and holds promise of becoming a tradition of Bellingham Normal. ONE OF THE BIGGEST single milestones in the career of the retiring editor was opening the question of whether intercollegiate football was profitable for this school and if intramural sports could not more suitably fill the athletic needs of the school. The question "Shall we abolish intercollegiate football?" reached a student and faculty ballot and received a two-to-one student vote in favor of retaining football as an intercollegiate activity and a 90 per cent faculty vote for abolishment. THE EDITOR feels that he has indeed completed a turbulent year but feels that it has also been successful. He has had a tendency toward sensationalism, resulting in much criticism but also in an increased following of readers. With or without approval, the paper was read . . . oftentimes re-read . . . and commented on . . . with gusto. THE EDITOR has enjoyed his work. He has made many friends, for which he is glad. He has made a few enemies, for which he is sorry. He has had lots of experience and feels the past year's work has been of immeasurable value to him. His hope is that he has been of service to the school. He hopes he has published a paper that the students have been proud to acknowledge as their own. He is proud that the judges in the Columbia Scholastic Press Association contest saw fit to honor this year's Northwest Viking with first place honor rating in their annual national contest. AS HE turns his editorial duties over to a capable and well qualified successor with best wishes for a most successful year, he wishes to make a few parting observations. TO PRESIDENT C. H. Fisher he wishes to pay a tribute. During his four quarters of rather frequent contacts with the president he has found him always fair and willing to give his attention to any problems or ideas presented to him. He has been tolerant, yes, generous, in permitting discussion and criticism through the columns of the Northwest Viking. When the editor has taken questions directly to the president (and avoided his self-appointed ambassadors) he has always found the responses completely satisfactory. TO ONE who has the rare ability of being able to clearly understand antagonistic faculty and student viewpoints, and combine them in a stable policy, to Mrs. Ruth Burnet, instructor in journalism, he pays the utmost respect. He has found her always working for the best interests of the Northwest Viking.^He has found her* sense of humor triumphant over all difficulties. WHEN THE EDITOR entered the Normal school he not only was indifferent, he was antagonistic toward education, toward teaching as a profession. He regarded the pedagogical vocation a mere stepping stone, a low stepping stone. Two years' association with educators, with people who know the profession, with persons whose consuming interest is the advancement of education, have given him untold respect for the educator and his profession. He has become appreciative of the high ideals and responsibility of the teacher. He has developed an ever increasing ---------- Northwest Viking - 1932 August 12 - Page 2 ---------- WASHINGTON STATE NORMAL SCHOOL, BELLINGHAM, WASHINGTON The Northwest Viking Formerly The Weekly Messenger—Founded 1899 Published every Friday except during the month of September by the Associated Students, Washington State Normal School, Bellingham, Entered in the Postoffice at Bellingham, Washington, as second class matter by virtue of the act of March 3,. 1879.

B O T H O F T H E M are experienced in the work of the paper and familiar with the problems of the Viking. Under the leadership of these two the Viking . should be able to reach an unprecedented high standard and should be a paper that will honestly represent the work and standards of this school. STODDARD, who has served as a staff member for two years and associate editor the past two quarters, will undoubtedly make valuable contributions to the paper. Among other successes we sincerely hope he will bring to Bellingham Normal the honor of the Medalist award of the Columbia Scholastic Press Association, in the contest in which the Viking has won first place the last three years. ECOGNIZING AND EWARDING ACTIVITIES W H A T P R I C E A C T I V I T I E S ? What good do students receive from participation in activities? What recognition does the school give them for outside interests? Such questions are often asked by students who would like to take part in activities but hesitate to take any attention away from their regular school work. S T U D E N T S of ability are called upon by the students and faculty to give their time and efforts in positions of planning and managing student affairs. Such activities could not be accomplished within the school were it not for a small group who generously give their efforts for the benefit of the group and in doing so injure themselves scholastically with slight recompense in any form from the school. T H E R E A R E few who would not agree that a student is personally benefited by a reasonable number of interests outside the classroom. It is indeed the aim of this school to develop educators rather than research workers. Scholastic grades are too often based upon research work and strict adherence to a definite course of study. Educators, on the other hand, are developed through contacts in addition to classroom work. Study can not wholly make up for lack of participation in activities, although it may indeed go a long way. T H E REASON so few persons are willing to devote their time to activities in this school is because they realize that, except for their own personal growth, activities are not worth the drop in scholastic rating that often accompanies them. W H A T A C T I V I T I E S we now have within the school are participated in by a very limited number Between Glasses By PAT ALLAN « j n — • n n II •• n n «•• n •• u •• M »• • • What with the quarter drawing to a close and everyone anxious about test week, perhaps it would be a good thing to suggest as a partial cure for All-Night- Studyitis, a double dose of black coffee, a Hershey bar (paid advertisement) and a bromo seltzer (also paid advertisement) at-midnight. There is nothing that will revive one like a brisk walk around the campus after sundown, or a jaunt up Sehome hill about 1 o'clock in the morning. A sure antidote for the boredom that comes with super-sophistication (or rather "pseudo-super-sophistication) is an efficient tap just behind the left ear with an eight-pound sledge. * Another thing, man! If you are bothered by going to sleep in class—sit next to a chatterbox, a cute one, as I do. It's a sure cure. Thoughts while watching a bug cross a sidewalk. . . . The ego-centric mind of the Victorian would be utterly amazed, confounded at the uncentered modern view of the emotional universe. What was once a nicely arranged firmament at the center of which man stood and willed the stars to drop or rise has become a confused and inextricably twisted mass, moving here sluggishly and there with extraordinary rapidity, punctured with innumerable vortices in which man, an infinitesimal speck, blind to the path of the current in which he careens, is whisked hither and thither, finally, inevitably, plunging into one of these vortices, called Death. Over the mass, kept boiling by the fire of Life, stands Pate, blinded at the hands of Circumstance and driven mad by the incessant taps of Caprice upon her forehead. And Fate stirs. Blindly, sometimes maliciously, she dips her ladle into the teeming, noxious mass and beats it here and there, wasting her energies upon, a useless task. Man, who was once the self-acknowledged head of all life, has become an electron without an orbit. Awed by Space, frightened by Time, he is beaten to and fro incessantly, sometimes breathing the cool, clean, air of happiness, but more often seared and scorched and maimed at the very bottom of the cauldron. Without hope of a future, without the solace of a Great Guiding Hand he dances here and there, then, without fail, plunges down into blank nothingness, his words unheeded, his deed forgotten, his place taken by another, who in turn goes his way. of students. These students are often penalized in grade rating, although it is to be wondered if they are not amply compensated in the development of ability to meet actual situations in the education field. H O W E V E R , our point is this: students should receive definite recognition through the appointment bureau for participation in activities and, furthermore, the number of activities should be increased and sufficient stress laid, upon their importance so that more students will take part in a greater number of activities. The burdens and opportunities of such work should not be restricted to a few. A R E C E N T case in point is the appointment of editor and business manager to the Northwest Viking. Only one candidate for each office was qualified through training and apprenticeship to handle the work. The entire system of selecting staff positions on the Viking was at first blamed, but it was later seen that the real fault lay in the fact that work in activities was not encouraged; that the regular enrolled student usually found it more profitable to work for grades, and as a result was not available for positions of honor and leadership. SEEMINGLY, the only way to alleviate this situation and promote competition, is to make activities more attractive to the regular student and make it possible for him to participate in the extra curricular work that will undoubtedly be of value to him in the educational profession. o Out of approximately 700 people present at Dr. Neumann's lecture Tuesday night only one seemed to disagree with his viewpoint on the cause of this depression. At least only one was bold enough to stand up and state unabashed his opinion when Dr. Neumann asked for questions and criticisms. NEW ILLUSTRATIONS OF ;, ODYSSEY AT LIBRARY A new edition of "The Odyssey of Homer," with unusually good illustrations, has been added to the l ibrary and is being displayed this week in the lower hall of the library. N. C. Wyeth is the illustrator and G; lt;H. Palmer is the translator. "The Adventures of Odysseus," by Padraic Colum, illustrated by Willy Pogany and Pope's translation with Flax-man designs are also being exhibited . to show the different interpretations of the illustrations.

She was especially delighted with the beauty of t he building itself," said President Fisher today.

BANNER GETS SKATE CASE FOR LAB WORK An egg case containing four partially developed young skates was found last Sunday by Henry Banner while fishing in the bay for cod. Henry Banner and a friend were fishing in one hundred feet of water. Quite unespectedly something was hooked. Upon taking in their line it was discovered they had landed four fish instead of one. Banner knew the science department would welcome this specimen of the ray family in their laboratory work, so he brought it to school with him Monday. The case was opened and the four small skate embryos attached to the egg yolk were placed in a bowl of salt water where they are living in room 201. o- Mildred Cavanaugh had a minor operation on her eye Monday. Keith Sanford was ill a t his home in Everson Monday. Girls' Club Group Exhibit to Be Held Tuesday Afternoon Everyone is urged to see t he exhibit of handcraft articles collected by the Girls Club Organization class in the Women's League room next Tuesday. Articles that can be made by girls from 10 to 15 in any girls' club will be shown from 9 a. m. until 4 o'clock in the afternoon. This class, taught by Miss Weyth-man, has been filled to capacity this quarter. It originally rose out of a need for such instruction. Those who have had such outside work thrust upon them in addition to their regular teaching positions have especially welcomed the chance to gather information and practical knowledge in a regular class. Development Is Goal The ends toward which any club for girls strives, are based on the "four-fold development" of the girl —mental, social, physical and ethical, or character, which includes much more. The activities which hold these qualities within themselves are the backbone of any group organization. Such a club can do much toward the development of the individual. The degree of good that can be done is measured in the director or adviser, for with her lies the task of guidance for the group. Out of the whole thing must rise a code of standards. The value lies in the development shown but first 'must be given the many opportunities for such development. A successful adviser not only knows the aims of the club but the activities that will help to attain them. "KEEP MOVING" IN CO-OP 'i/:. book "Keep Moving," by Alfred C. B. Fletcher, is in the lending library at the Students' Co-op. An extract, entitled "A Bath in Japan," from this book, was published in the Viking of July 29. o Evelyn Swalling- spent the weekend with friends in Kent. Cecile Nickell went on the Friday Harbor excursion and Bertha Mac- Fadyen took the Camp Craft trip to Valhalla from Beverly Hall.

The price of the entire service is only $1. This triple offer saves a lot of time and bother—and money. Call 592 for appointments at the MANX BEAUTY SALON, 1218 Cornwall Ave. One of the first features we notice in fall.colors is the prominence of brown with wine a close second. Old Shoes! No sale—for old shoes can be made to look like new and when it's done right—how they wear! Right off the campus we have the College Shoe Shop and Service Station. Mr. Berg has been in business for 25 years and speaks from experience. He lists his prices for us which are: Ladies' half soles 75c and up Ladies' heels 25c and up Men's half soles $1.00 and up Men's heels , 50c and up Reasonable, isn't it? I know that you can't do better anywhere else. And another thing, perhaps you have wondered about cleaning fluid. Here you can buy a fluid at 30 cents a gallon. Two gallons will clean four dresses, a suit, a coat and several hats and purses. Think of that.

They make an outfit and they make it over and over again. Variety, a Close Third Quality and economy go hand in hand in only a few cases.

Art work completed during the summer session will comprise the work displayed in the three art rooms. Students may derive many benefits in the form of ideas from the variety of work shown. The poster class, the junior high school art class, the introductory class in art and a class in illustration in both tempera and black and white will have their contributions in room 303. Large illustrations of children's stories in tempera and paper landscapes, designs, tree studies and book bindings will be displayed in room 304. Primary teachers especially will be concerned with the things in room 305 which will be in the form of illustrations of farm life, clay models, boxes, jesso work, door stops, wooden plaques and holiday cards. Miss Hazel Breakey, Miss Margaret Grey and Miss Druse are sponsoring the exhibit. Girls From City at Campfire Conference About fifty Campfire Girls of the Pacific Northwest will be gathered at Camp Carrie Kirby on Samish Island for a homecoming banquet to be held Saturday night, August 13, at 6:30. Speeches and stunts will be features of the program. The theme of the banquet is "Remember When." Each speaker will represent a different year at Camp Carrie Kirby. Five-year honors will" be presented to those girls who have been at Camp Carrie Kirby for five consecutive summers. All Campfire Girls in the school are urged to come to this event. The admission is 35 cents. Arrangements for transportation may be made with Helen Harlow. Girls from Bellingham who are going include many present and former Normal school students. They are: Helen Harlow, Adele Prentice, Josephine Kindall, Dorothy Fiala, Dorothy Dillabough, Mary Louise Friese, Katherine Friese, Genevieve Greene, Isabel Henderson, Phyllis Lamoreaux, Caroline Kenyon and ---------- Northwest Viking - 1932 August 12 - Page 4 ---------- ^^^^^^M^M^^W^^-^W^^^ ::-^0:'\v gt;MW: WASHINGTON STATE NORMAL SCH OOL, BELLINGHAM, WASHINGTON LOCAL DIVOT DIGGERS TAKE HUSKIES 10-8; U ACE IS DEFEATED McBeath Downs Oscar Thorsen; Rhodes, Carver Take Clean Sweep GOLF SERIES EVENED Reversing the tables on their Seattle Opponents, Coach Sam Carver's string of.divot diggers eased a 10-8 victory from the University of Washington golf team.

At Bellingham the Huskies proved too strong for the Vikings, but on the U links the Nor-malites hit their stride for sure and dropped the Purple and Gold sextet.

In the Bellingham match, Occie won, 3-0, but Clint changed his brand of balls and boomed out a 3-0 victory over the summer ses-sioning Occie at the University.

All Tubby did Tuesday down at the U was to throw a high one then spit tobacco juice, from pitcher's box to home plate, then talk a while and throw one still higher. Anyway it produced, good results because the baiters couldn't reach 'em with a step ladder, and the umpire couldn't see anything but strikes. It's a cinch no up and coming life insurance company would take Graves as a good risk because all he does is throw 'em and duck. It begins to look as though "Baldy Bill" Klepper built the new left field fence at the Civic Auditorium, Seattle's new baseball park, for nought. Klepper, at least, had one man on the club who could paste one over it quite consistently, but when he sold Dutch Holland to the Boston Braves Tuesday, it looks like he sold the goose that laid the golden egg. Holland, together with George Burns and Freddie Muller, was Seattle's main attraction but now with the Dutchman gone, Klepper will have to pull an "a la Vic Meyers," and treat the customers to free cracked ice and ginger ale to keep the turnstiles clicking. Holland, the best hitter on the club, gave the boys and girls a thrill every once in awhile by bouncing one against the auditorium wall and that's what the fans like, but now with the roly-poly outfielder gone, Freddie Muller will have to open the other peeper and hit even more home runs.

The latest record for hits and runs is now being held, temporarily, to say the least, by the Larruping Lilacs of Leatha. Twenty-nine hits, twenty-four runs and no errors for the winners was chalked up by Vernie's mob. The victims—the down-trodden Rummies— made a feeble attempt at stemming the tide of battle but were able to eke in but two runs during the seven-inning melee. Boulton Hurls Si Boulton , chucked superlative ball for the winners and allowed but five hits for the game. Beaton was heavy sticker for the day, collecting four for five at the plate and playing heads-up ball in the infield. Kanaar followed with four for five with Stiger, Williams, Gallanger, Overfield and Osborne trailing with three for five. Summary: H R. E.

Tommy Stiger, the Everett side wheeler, had two bad innings that smothered whatever chance the Vikings had of downing the University Tuesday, in Seattle. Stiger sailed along at a fairly good lick until the fifth inning, when with one man down he walked two and allowed two men to reach first on bits. Coupling these two hits and two walks with a fielder's choice the Huskies with the aid of another hit scored four runs, enough to win the ball game then and there, as three runs and five hits were all the Vikings could manufacture during the afternoon. Another three-hit splurge in the seventh inning which scored three more runs put the game on ice, as Davis, the elongated right hander, who relieved Graves, couldn't be touched in either of the two innings he worked. The loss of the two-game series by the Vikings sort of upset the dope but it's a cinch if Graves pitches next summer all the men who made the trip Tuesday will be back with bells on aching to knock him loose from his foundations. "Boxey" Flint, baseball letterman and football aspirant, dropped in Wednesday to look over the old stamping grounds. Flint looked to be in pretty fair condition and is determined to wedge in on Carver's football team this fall. Posy Flowers, the lad who holds the Tri-Normal pole vault record, still can't leave the old track bug alone. Passed through Mount Vernon recently and saw Posy draped around a light post on Main street. It's a dime to a doughnut that he was thinking more of bygone days than of that herd of cows he now milks night and morning down on the old farm. Anyway, it's pretty hard to starve to death on a farm, and that's pretty hard to say about some of these school districts around the country. Coach Tubby Graves' summer baseball squad ran rough-shod over "Pop" Gunn's crew Tuesday in Seattle and gave the local gang a none too gentle shellacking to the tune of a 11-3 defeat. By virtue of this win, the University made a clean sweep of the two-game series. Graves' crew went into the lead in the. first inning by scoring one run, on two walks, a hit and a brace of errors by Tommy Stiger, Viking chucker. Another walk, an error and a sacrifice fly put the U-ites in the scoring column again in the third inning. But the local gang was in there fighting all the time and came back with a one-run splurge in both the second and third innings. Rockey Hits Jim McCleery, first man to face Talking Tubby Graves in the second canto, went out by virtue of a high bounder to Brannon, husky third sacker, but Rhodes walloped a skyer to center which Simmons lost in the fog, letting the hit go for two bases. McMackin flyed out but Rockey, Viking left fielder, worked the count to three and two and then lined the next pitch over the infield, scoring Rhodes to put the locals into the ball game. Stiger came across in the third inning for another Viking score but the Huskies were out to win the ball game and put it in the bag through a four-run rally hi the sixth, and added five more for good measure in the last two heats. Normal scored their third and last run in the ninth when McCleery dented the rubber after Rhodes dumped a single into left field. Dempsey, being all primed for another crack at Sharkey, is making another one of those "comeback attempts." In all probability it's not the crack at Sharkey that Dempsey wants but just a few thousand more sheckels. Jack will still be in there when they quit making wheel chairs.

This upset came after a three game slump by the winners and truly showed that they were a late-season outfit. Game Even The Rummies immediately set their sights in the first inning and pushed over four runs to give them a temporary lead. Not dismayed but very much aroused, the Half-Witts barged right back with an equal number of tallies to knot the score. A two- run rally in the second off-set the Witts meager one run in the same inning. Again in the third the Rhodes 'reckers bunched three hits to dent the rubber twice and give them a three-run margin to work on. Stage Rally The losers advanced their spark in the last canto and knocked the soft-ball goofy for a total of five runs. Behind and with the game drawing to a close, the Rummies got their heads together, fathomed the Witt hurlers' offerings, and clat tered two homers, a double and single off the shins of the luckless fielders to take the game with a one run margin Summary-— H R E Half-Witts 20 10 5 Rummies .............................. 21 11 2| • . •, "; .. .

XXXII—NO, 5 WASHINGTON STATE NORMAL SCHOOL, BELLINGHAM, WASHINGTON Friday, October 27, 1933 School Will See Vikings Home Game Coach Sandberg Brings Strong C P. S. Loggers For Test Tomorrow. VIKINGS HIT BY INJURIES Ullin, Guard, and Miller, Half Win Starting Jobs Led by Coach Roy Sandberg, the man of the hour at C. P. S., the College of Puget Sound Loggers will arrive in town some time today. The team is in good condition for its game tomorrow with Coach Lappen-busch's Vikings. The Loggers will be out to continue their winning ways, while the Vikings, regardless of the fact that the odds are all against them, will be ffghting hard to win their first victory of the season. The C. P. S. outfit this year is the most formidable aggregation that they have had in a long time, which was proved in their game with the University of Washington last week, also by their victories over Albany, Willamette and Sft. Martin's college. Loggers Are Big Boasting a big, husky squad of men that more than look like the loggers they are named after, Sand-berg's eleven will have a big weight advantage over the Viking team. Carlson and Lindquist, who hold down the end positions for the Loggers,, are both big men, and it will be around these ends that the Vikings will likely find most of the Loggers' running attacks directed. A veteran backfield which features that slippery little halfback, Ennis, along with Sterling, all-conference quarterback last year, Brooks, fullback, and Kimball, halfback, will probably greet the Vikings at the opening gun. Ennis is the lad who scored the touchdown for the Loggers against Washington, and also is the one who created such excitement over at Washington State with his open field running. He, to all indications, will be the man for the Vikings to stop tomorrow. Springer, guard, and Olsen, tackle, are two -other linemen who will likely.make the day a blue one for the Normal players. (Continued on Page Three) o Hossain Is Speaker In Monday Assembly "Eastern and Western Ideals" was the subject of a lecture delivered *by Mr. Syud Hossain in the October 22 assembly. Mr. Hossain was educated in India, and was thoroughly ac quainted with his subject. In 1921 he attended the Washington arms conference as a press representative, and he was also a delegate from India at the Near East conference. Mr. Hossain was editor of a magazine in Bombay, and has edited several magazines in New York dealing with the Orient. He is a world traveler and an internationalist by conviction. After the lecture had been concluded, the assembly hall was turned into a forum, and questions were asked by various students. , • 0 ! Assembly Features Patriotic Program Songs and a riotous pep rally started out the Friday, October 27, assembly. A patriotic program was carried out stirring up school spirit for the C. P. S. football game, which occurs Saturday, October 28, in Bel-lingham. The pep assembly was followed by a student assembly over which Johnny Christy, student president, presided. Student affairs were discussed. .October 27 was set.aside as Navy day and Mr. Morey Serf, Bellingham resident and representative of the American Legion, delivered a lecture on navy propaganda. •• : O — "The American Indian* ?

Miss Moffat ••'••-'"'ij^f*\:H.talk on "The, American In-dian," with emphasis placed on their ^ A round-table discussion on the Indians of Author of Drama Play For Fall Is From Harvard Stage and Screen Success by Barry Will be Given Next Month Drama club production for the quarter is "Holiday," by Philip Barry. Mr. Barry is a Harvard man and comes from a New England family. Such an atmosphere usually invades his plays and his characters are leisurely, smart and what Boston calls "nice" people. In every play he shows some serious ideas. In "Paris Bound" he criticises the modern"marriage. In "You and I," his first success, there is an interesting quest of lost talent. "Animal Kingdom" is his latest success and in it he swerves from his light, whimsical spirit to one a little too serious for Barry to write. - Most of his audience prefer "Holiday" to his later plays because it is brilliant and displays the spirit termed in French "le joie de vivre". "Holiday is a gay play and must be gaily done," says Director Victor Hoppe. "The actors must dress and act smartly; must be jolly, good fellows. The cast for this play is unusually good at working out the idea of the play, which is that of working while old and playing while young, for one is young but once. The rehearsals are coming nicely and the cast is learning to supply the sparkle and animation necessary to the character of this play." o New Viking Heads Chosen By Board At Extra Session Dornblut Is Elected Editor and Fisher Selected as Business Manager of Viking Julius Dornblut Jr. and Francis Fisher were elected editor and business manager, respectively, of The Northwest Viking at a special meeting of the Board of Control a week ago today. Pat Allan, Viking chief since January, 1933, has left school to regain his health and will be at his home in Everett for some time. Dornblut has had five quarters' experience on The Viking. During that time he has been copy editor, assistant editor, associate editor and business manager. Fisher was editor of his high school paper, the Whatcom World. Last year he was freshman editor of the Klipsun. This summer he edited the Blue Book. Fisher is completing his third quarter's work for The Viking. He was associate editor last spring quarter and at the time of his election was assistant editor. Bill Allan, Pat Allan's brother, was appointed circulation manager by Dornblut before he took over the editorship. For the time being the assistant editor's chair will not be filled. Homecoming Book To Be Ready Soon Friday, November 17, the Homecoming booklet will be published for student distribution. Bob Lindsley , is this year's editor, and Ralph Shenenberger is the business manager. This booklet will contain pictures of President C. H. Fisher, the football squad, Coach Chuck Lappenbusch, and the Ellens-burg football coach, squad and buildings. It will also contain the Homecoming program. Editor Wants Photos Gordon Richardson, editor of the 1934 Klipsun, has urged all juniors and seniors to sign today for pictures. The appointment sheet is on the bulletin board and the dates range from October 28 to November 4. A deposit of seventy-five cents is required on all pictures but is refunded on having photos made.

Lillian Bennerstrom, general chairman of the dance, announces that this informal is going to be unique and one of the s e a s o n ' s s u c cesses. Big, black silhouettes of all kinds of dogs, ' including chows, German dachshunds, terriers, scotties and other varieties will d e c o r a t e the w a l l s of t he Crystal ballroom Lillian Bennerstrom in the Leopold hotel. Ray Fowler's local seven-piece orchestra, which has just "recently been reorganized, will furnish the music for the evening. According to all reports, it's supposed to be good! Ten gallons of punch have been ordered so it seems that no one will suffer from lack of liquid. The program of the dances has already been posted and specialty numbers will be introduced for each dance, making them novel affairs. During intermission entertainment will be furnished. The patrons and patronesses for the evening will be President and Mrs. Fisher, Dr. and Mrs. Miller, Mr. and Mrs. Marquis, Mr. and Mrs. Bushell, Miss Johnson, Miss Countryman and Mr. Arntzen. The dance starts at 9 a. m. and will continue until midnight. Come early and enjoy yourself! Tuesday Assembly Schaf er Will Give Red Cross Plans Pacific Coast Red Cross Head to Deliver Speech on Club Work The assembly program for October 31 will be in charge of Mr. A. L. Schafer, who is manager of the Red Cross on the Pacific coast. Mr. Schafer comes from the Red Cross headquarters at San Francisco and is very well informed on the, work that is being done by the Red Cross in all parts of the United States. He will talk to the students on the purpose of the organization and will give them some idea of the value and accomplishments of the Red Cross. The speaker will bring to our minds that the week including October 29 to November 6 will be national roll call week for the Red Cross. o Notice Is Received Disarmament Council Sends Word to Relations Club The International Relations club has received a notice from the In tercollegiate Disarmament Council of New York City asking if the Normal club wishes to become a part of this national student movement. According to Miss Nora Cummins, local adviser, the club has not as yet definitely decided to join. Mr. James Green, of Yale, who is council chairman, states in his letter to the club members: "We of the International Disarmament Council hope to face some real is sues this winter and we are banking on your support. What can you suggest that would arouse the greatest interest in international affairs among the students on your campus? This year the I. D. C. hopes every college in the country will share in this great national student undertaking to become 'international conscious.'" o :— Viking Eleven Meets Rangers November 11 Next Saturday, November 4, the Vikings will journey to Lacey where they will take on the Ranger eleven from St. Martin's college. The Viking team will be out to win this game to make up for the scoreless tie that was played between the two teams in the game on Waldo Field last year. St. Martins has not had such a good season this year as they usually have, but they are • always plenty tough. They have only won one game so far this year, that being with the Pacific Lutheran college, score 19 to 6. Their losses have been to C. P. S., Monmouth Normal, and West Seattle Athletic club. The Vikings'showing against the Loggers should, indicate just what their chances will be against the Rangers, as the C. P. S. boys defeated the latter 6 to 0. . • •——r——O—• —- ' ., :•'';;_;.

Business Manager Beth Hankins - Associate Editoi You Can Help Just where is The Northwest Viking going to get three hundred dollars to balance its budget for,the fall quarter? When school began there was a balance of $1 3 7 . Appropriations from student fees as determined by tlie Board of Control amount to $ 4 1 2 . T h e budget for this quarter calls for $850. In ordinary times it would not be a difficult matter to raise the balance by selling advertising. Today business men are still willing to advertise if they can be convinced advertising pays. W e are certain well placed advertising always did pay and always will. We are equally sure The Northwest Viking is one of the finest selling mediums in the Northwest. There is but one way a business man knows whether he is getting results from his advertising. The customer must indicate in some manner that he is making a purchase because the merchant has appealed to him with one form of advertising or another. It will be a painless process indeed to balance The Viking budget if all loyal Normalites remember to buy from Viking advertisers and tell them their ad was seen in the school paper. The Viking is proud of the quality of its advertising, for it carries the message of the better merchants in town. Remember these business people are making it possible for you to have a school paper at two-thirds of its actual cost. If you wish to have a list of the supporters of your paper you may find it on the main bulletin board. This list is revised from month to month to" keep it up to date. It will give the business manager a chance to properly balance the budget if the town merchants are kept aware of the existence of a college in Bellingham which adds about three quarters of a million dollars a year to the general well-being of the city. o Success or Failure at Geneva • Another disarmament conference is threatened with failure—this time before it has begun. Why a grief-laden world should continue to carry a burden designed for distrust and destruction is utterly silly and completely beyond our powers of comprehension. All the''more asinine is the fact that nations can't begin to get together without preliminaries reminiscent of nursery squabbles. In a few years students now in schools and colleges will begin taking over state, national and local affairs. The greatest problem which our predecessors will hand down as a heritage is to find a mode of settling international differences by means other than wholesale slaughter and ruthless destruction of property. We cannot begin soon enough to take a position which will let those in power know that we do not wish to carry on policies which reflect on our sanity when • we call ourselves civilized. France in particular is notorious in her demands for armaments as a means of, security. At the same time we doubt whether an army or navy official in any nation is ready, or ever would be ready, to admit that his country is adequately armed against any conceivable concentration of potential enemies. Needless to say any such attempt on the part of even the more powerful governments would prove an insurmountable task. This leads us to ask—why carry on the murderous pretense of trying to do the impossible? True, disarmament consists of something more than the physical act of converting cannons into plowshares and battleships into something more utilitarian than excuses for earthquakes in California. Distrust and suspicion must be removed. But we doubt strongly that they will go when one nation sees its neighbor ' building more ominous looking forts with yawning cannons waiting for the signal—a murdered archduke or the blowing up of a few hundred yards of railroad —to start another living hell on earth. The problem is Herculean. Many significantly gray heads are aching. Yet we wonder if they were • to attack the question with as much eclat and zeal as they used in blowing millions of men to bits some fifteen years ago—-wouldn't we have a little brighter future hefore us? ALBERT AND NORLIN It sure is funny the various ways that different people can look at things. Take a dog for example: His idea of doing "capers" seems to be to let out screeches at a lovely moon. While, on the other hand, the Women's league of this school has the idea the "capers" translated into college English means "dancing." Yet (hope you don't get mixed up) the dog thinks that he is dancing and the Women's league is calling its dance, "Kennel Kapers." Say, are you telling me or am I telling you? Fashion9s Fancies By Beth Hankins The smartest all-around dress for daytime wear is the Shirtmaker Frock. It has slim tailored lines and comes in sheer "neck-tie" Wool in tiny checks or plaids. It features short lapels and big gay buttons and belt clasp. % The newest neck-line is the smart "choker cowl". It is the cowl neckline which is easy to wear because it is soft and flattering. Brilliant buttons to match your frock set off the cowl neck. Satin has made its grandest debut. Wear, a satin blouse with your wool skirt....Trim your wool dress with satin touches and scarfs....Add satin accessories— gloves, hat, and bag*, and be in the Fall and Winter 1933 mode. Ribbed silk in shades of green, brown, and rust, is making New York gaze right now. These frocks are , simple, made after the 'Business Cirl' and 'Campus' cuts, and are proclaimed the best all-around drsses of the season. Smart new gloves for evening: wear are fashioned from satin and velvet to match your frock. For daytime, gloves have assumed a smooth, chic, appearance via suede or the improved pig-skin... There are also smooth wool gloves, flattering to the hands, 'in color, and matching wool berets or coats. The newest thing in winter coats and suits is the fabric called Schiaparelli's "Elephant's Hide" wool. It is a lovely thick, soft wool with large raised welts all through it. It comes in various thicknesses but the medium weights meet with the greatest approval. Don Norlin's RAMBLINGS At last the dreams of the student body have ---------- Northwest Viking - 1933 October 27 - Page 3 ---------- HglplflllllPi^ » fa f^ ^ A S H I N G T O k S T A T E NORMAL SCHOOL, B E I X I N G H A M ; WASHINGTON SPORTQ LANTlQ Bob Lindsley They were plenty big and fast and good. That's the impression we received of. Cheney's Savages last week, and we are quite sure it is a lasting impression for the Viking football team also. With a team of veterans like Cheney has and especially the number of men who rated tri-normal selection last fall, the Cheney students would have had reason to be extremely disappointed if they had not literally smeared the Vikings. Of course, if we wantel to be funny we could mention the tact that there were more upsets in football games last week-end than there had been for a long time. Another alibi would be that the team hit the hay at 2 a. m. the morning of the game, but then what's the use of trying to apologize for our team's showing? The Savages had the team that deserved to win, and if they don't mesmerize EUensburg by at least six touchdowns I will think it was because they were over-confident or that the subs played most of the game. Highlights of the Cheney trip — Driving so fast by the Monroe reformatory that We went four miles beyond the road to Snoqualmie pass —Snow six inches deep at the top of the pass—-Davidson entertaining us with song for a SHORT distance— Muddy detours causing much Worry to the coach a few miles out of EUensburg—Finley helping me hold down the table at Soap Lake from- 8 'til 9 : gt;15 p. m, while We watched, the rest of the boys eating their meal and dessert before we were served the soup— A flat tire about forty-five miles from Spokane at 11:30 at night— Loading up with stationery at the Spokane hotels—-Surprised by the violinist, McPhetriJge, at the Or-pheum— Feasting our eyes on apples on the Way back, and finally getting a box of Delicious for our troubles —Consequently an apple core war in the back of the bus—Sinko nicknamed "The Sneaker." TEAMS ORGANIZE FOR INTRAMURAL BASKETBALL ROW Contest Begins November 2; Seven Squads Are Now Signed For Battle MANAGERS MEET TUESDAY Schedule Will Be Formed at ' Conference Slam Carver will blow the whistle Thursday afternoon, November 2, starting the first intramural basketball tussle this year. The managers of each squad will meet with Mr. Carver next Tuesday, when rules will be discussed and a schedule formed. At least seven teams will be out fighting for the championship. There is still room for one or two more ball clubs, so see Director Carver immediately if you have one in mind. Managers Busy The managers are now starting to have their difficult task in getting their teams organized and ready for action. Melvin Munson, the yell leader manager of the Frosh team, made a big scoop when he signed up the Nielsen brothers. Bill Toby, a star forward, caused Manager Al-bee of the Co-ops to lose much sleep, when he told George he wouldn't be able to play. Dick Stearns, president of the Men's club and manager of its team, seems likely to try to win his games by diplomacy. Bob Lindsley thinks his Northwest Vikings are pretty good, and they have already started secret practice. The little giant, Louis Shaffer, manager of the Revelers, will probably start training his boys on Polish buttermilk. Bob Hartley and Daniels Hall plan to enter teams, and both of these squads will be out trying to win something better than the cellar championship. Everyone is invited to attend any of these big games. Every boy will undoubtedly play a better brand of basketball if his weakness is up in the stand cheering. Another Game Won By Hussey In Tournament Will Now Plyay Shenenberger for Men's Fall Tennis Championsnip Winning his third successive tennis match, Bill Hussey continues his championship drive. Stanley Wil-lard, hard driving boy from Coupe-ville, is the latest victim. Hussey's fast serve and quick net play were too much for his less experienced rival and Hussey swept through the two sets, 6-2 and 6-1. Every point was well contested and bitterly fought. Hussey now has the right to meet Ralph Shenenberger for the winner of the men's elimination tournament. This match should be won by Hussey, but nothing would satisfy Shenenberger better than to kick over the dope bucket. o -•••— . Semi-Finals of Golf Tournament To Be Played During Week Miles, Clark, Lindsley, Lovegren Left in Running Bellingham is going to be told about the Normal Homecoming, according to Sammie Carver, who has been appointed chairman of the advertising committee for that affair. A radio broadcast has been scheduled for Wednesday, November 15, at 9:15 over KVOS and plans are being negotiated for curtain actSvthe following evening at one of the local theaters. A pep assembly will be held some time during the Friday of Homecoming under the supervision of the mittees will be made later by Kean. o— STUDENT WORK CAMPS Forty college students from sixteen states plan to take part in student work camps in Europe this summer, according to Kenneth Holland, executive secretary of International Student Service, who is recruiting the participants. The total cost of three weeks in a camp is $11 in Germany, $6.50 in Wales, $4.50 in Holland and $2 in Austria. Swiss camps are free. mens Sports W. A. A. Continued progress in all branches of women's sports brings "with it the assurance of intramural contests within a short time, plans now being formulated for volleyball team play next week, and hockey the week following. Tests, which are used as a basis for intramural team choice in vol-leygall, were concluded Wednesday by Miss Jewell, adviser... Discussion as to prospects., and., appointments will follow and teams probably will get into action Monday. It will be safe to conjecture that Phyllis Greeley, University of Washington transfer, who scored one-hundred percent in one test, will captain one team. At the practice Monday afternoon Miss Jewell particularly stressed the advantages to be gained in placement of shots by the use of both hands on' the ball simultaneously. A short period of actual play followed the drill work, and- some excellent team work was displayed. Due to the absence' of Miss gt;'Ruth Weythman,' adviser, soccer •practice Monday'was of short duration, sufficiently-long enough, 'however, for one enthusiastic player to execute two three-point landings into the mud, of which there is plenty in the soccer field. The W. A. A. girls will take to the scout cabin at Lake Whatcom tomorrow after the game. The hikers will meet at 4:55 p. m., on the corner of Holly and State streets. They will take the Lake Whatcom car to Whatcom Falls park and hike from there to the scout cabin about two miles distant. The Women's Athletic associations of Washington state college and the College of Puget Sound will begin their inter-class hockey and volleyball games at about the same time as we will begin our intramural, final try-outs at both schools having been held this week. ' Unique costumes added much, from the spectator's point of view, to the hockey turnout Tuesday afternoon. Parts of these costumes were due to the weather conditions, colored bathing caps being much in evidence... These, added to the required accessory of colored boleros to distinguish teams, completed the bizarre effect. * A full hour was given to practice despite the muddy condition of the field, which made it difficult to keep .the ball located. Miss Jewell noted great improvement in the mental technique of the contestants, which is conducive to better co-ordination. Fish Fans, the honorarary women's swimming society of Washington state college, recently added four new fish fans to its group. The initiation into the mysteries of the sea Was appropriately held in the swimming pool. Girls are asked to bring their own lunches, a nickel and a flashlight, if possible. Hallowe'en games and stunts will be enjoyed in the evening at the large scout cabin, after which the hikers will journey homeward. -o Oberlin college is celebrating its 100th anniversary. It is the first institution of higher learning that admitted both men and women students. The Northwestern National Bank Bellingham, Wash. I WE SOLICIT THE % NORMAL ACCOUNTS CHENEY DEFEATS VIKINGS IN GAME PLAYED FRIDAY Vikings Threaten But Action Was Just Well Started by End of First Quarter HE s m a s h i n g team of Cheney blasted Belling-ham's hopes of winning tri-normal honors this year when they defeated the Vikings, 33 to 0, l a s t Friday in their homecoming classic. Led by Captain Roundy, the Savages dominated the situation from the start. They scored once in the first,, twice in the second, and once in the third and fourth quarters. Cheney made twelve first downs to five for the Vikings. Gall, Cheney half; started with a bang for Cheney when on their third play he ran from the 47 to the 2-yard line. The Vikings held on the next play but Peterson went over center for the first score. Vikings Threaten Shortly after this the Vikings made their one and only threat. Two consecutive first downs through the line and a 15-yard pass to Miller put the ball within Cheney's 30-yard line. On the second play, Hoffman broke away through right guard to the 13-yard stripe, but the play was nullified when it was learned that the gun was overdue to fire *to end the first quarter. Two touchdowns by Strandberg and two -good kicks by Peterson brought the score to 20 to 0 at the half. Tilson scored in the third quarter when he ran 25 yards after intercepting a lateral. The last touchdown was made by Scott, who smashed 28 yards through center in the fourht period. The kick was good. Tomco stood out in the line for Bellingham, while Williams looked good in the backfield. The starting lineups: Cheney Bellingham Tilson RE Claypoole Roundy RT Smick Bannon, c JtG....

This, in substance was what Syud Hossain, the interesting speaker of Monday's assembly, desired to impress upon two Viking scribes who called upon him informally at his room in the Bel-lingham hotel. Enlarging upon his address for the school assembly, Mr. Hossain explained the political situation in the Western world. The present leaders in Europe, he said, are far behind the times in their understanding and ability. In discussing the prevailing attitudes of European nations toward each other, he emphasized the point that the European leaders of present times were incapable of understanding and appreciating the motives of their neighboring nations. When asked if travel and education could broaden their thinking, he said, "As you can't teach an old dog new tricks, they are capable of thinking only in colloquial terms." He firmly avers that the common people of European countries are far ahead of their statesmen in international thinking. It is therefore up to the younger generation who will be the statesmen of tomorrow to remedy this "nineteenth century situation." Americans Different In our own country the situation seems to be of a different nature. Although we bear no national hatreds and are much more international in our thinking, the trouble ' with the American system is the criminal disregard of graft and incompetence of government officials. Mr. Hossain, in demonstrating his point, cited several cases of the nature of the recent Morgan investigation. ..The people of ttoe^We['"' civilization make money tbe*j|| not the means" of life. This, hef is so true that the pepple ha money interests control the government. He contrasted this attitude with that of the Oriental who was satisfied to make only enough to give him pleasure in life. Hossain claims the depression in America was due to this mad scramble for money. In Europe he blamed the World war. Believes in Independence Mr. Hossain firmly believes thatj India is ready for independence and says that the present English con^ trol will not last much longer. The non-recognition of the Russian government by our own is childish. The governments of Hitler, Mussolini and the other European dictators are bound to crumble, bringing a revolution in the thinking of that continent. History has proved that no dictatorial government can last beyond the life of its leader. In concluding, Mr. Hossain heartily indorsed the youth movements that are springing up throughout the world. o W. E. A.

Richardson, Pearl Mar-riman, Ruth E. Piatt, Beatrice Doty. The Washington Education association which will close tonight with a public program at the Whatcom high school is part of American Education week, Nov. 8 to 12. This national education week has been set to give the educators of the country an opportunity to tell the public "What's right with the schools". That the Fairhaven high school 1933 annual yearbook was awarded its fifth consecutive all-American rating because of its originality and outstanding makeup, was the word received by that school from the National Scholastic Press association. The book was accredited 920 points out of a possible 1,000. The reward was regarded as a particular honor this year because the annual was not a regular size, being on the depression scale. Mane Kindall was editor and Frank J. Pratt business manager. Both are at present students of Bellingham State Normal. Miss Margaret Gray, of Fairhaven, was the faculty adviser.

Holly Harborview Hall Holds Hallowe'en Party October 20 Twelve Guests Ushered by Ghost to Enjoy Party Harborview hall Friday evening was the scene of a gay and enjoyable party. Smirking and scowling jack o'. lanterns greeted the twelve guests, who were ushered in by a very solemn ghost directing them into the gaily decorated hall Orange and black streamers, bows, flowers and. cats, dogs and parrots created a fantastic appearance under shaded lights. . Six tables of bridge were in play during the party. Prizes were awarded to Virginia Hall and Beth Jones, Pumpkin pie a la cream, cider and varied candies were served. Fortunes by an expert caused much merriment. The attending guests were: Dolly Anderson, Grace Emmons, Sarah Davidson, Beth Jones, Virginia Hall, Faye Winslow, Lois Hoaglund, Ethel Smart and Edwinna Christ. Hostesses were Mrs. Jean Reynolds, Ruth Lowe, Annie Keller, Beryl Krafft, Louise Johnstone, Lillian Marsolais, Blanche and Marjorie Pearce,' Vivian Reed, Dorothy Harris, Alda White, Kay Lobdell and Ruth Loertscher. LaFollette To Be Guest At Luncheon Senator Robert LaFollette Jr., of Wisconsin, who will speak at tfre Normal on Monday, November 6, will be the honor guest at a lunch' eon given by the Social Science club in the Edens haTT dining room on the same date. All students and faculty members are invited to attend. This Monday night, October 30, is the date of the next Social Steience club meeting, which will be in the Edens hall club room. All members are urged to be present as there is new business to come up. o Junior Senior Party Is Scene of Gayety Gone but not forgotten are the days of Miners' Paradise at the junior- senior party last Friday night. About two hundred students went to the big gym in search of fun and frolic. Mining tools and an improvised bar helped change a harmless, quiet room into a seething saloon. Couples danced to the music made by Chuck Cissna's orchestra and enjoyed apple cider and rye bread to the tune of the bartender's rollicking baritone. Bill Allan, junior-senior class president, says that any credit for the success of the party is due to Al Charlesworth, general manager of the dance, and the committee chairmen. Interpretations Are Progressing Mood, Rhythm, and Imagination Shown in Free . Interpretations As one of the means of introduction of the individual to the appreciation of music, the second grade of the Campus school are listening to and interpreting musical selec tions in their own way. The aims of the rhythm periods are to help the children develop their imagina tion; to encourage originality; to further a sense of rhythm, and- to aid in the interpretation of the mood of the music. The children look forward to the rhythm period as one of the favorite hours of the day. During this time they may be as free and creative as they choose. Spontaneous actions and interpretations, governed by the mood or feeling of the music, are released. Thought Required Thinking with care is one of the primary rules of the rhythm period The child who conducts himself as a sprightly fairy in response to piece of slow, Heavy music is promptly corrected by the group. These music periods are intellectual experiences for the children as well as emotional ones. They learn the background for their music Also, they come to know what type or style music is when they hear it. Many Interpretations A great many interpretations of the same music are given by differ ent children. For instance, to the music of "Johnny at the Fair," five different interpretations were used that were outstanding. Two little boys pretended that they were a cow and a milker. One was the cow and the other appeared to be milking the cow in time with the music. Another child was an elf pulling up toadstools. Still another was a danc ing pumpkin. Two more children said they represented a fairy boat, with an automobile on it, crossing a river. The last child was skipping pepper rope. "Gavotte from Iphiginia" brought out a butterfly, a bee, an angel, a child feeding birds, and one skipping rope. Mood Shown In the deeper piece, "March form Alceste," the element of sadness was sensed by the child representing a sad stone cutter. Another little boy was "just an animal," while one little girl was an elephant eating peanuts. The contrast between these spontaneous youngsters and older people may be seen if one were to watch a regular interpretive period of a physical education class, and then see these children in action. The children are more free, imaginative and interpretive, while the older people are biased and do not put their feelings into action.

But it all goes to show that there's no good in editors, and my idea of heavenjis a place-where St. Peter runs the best bar, the press club is for special feature writers only, and windows look down into the maw of Hell where the editors are roasting and broiling on spits over pools of sulphur and brimstone. # ' . * . * * . . - • • " Perhaps I should be happy. My resignation has just been refused. Of course, just when I happened to say something slightly untoward concerning the ladies (God bless'em) of the white ribbon, the editor would have to put my initials on the coly-um. And I told him at the start that I didn't want anybody to know who was writing this, because I wanted to keep my insurance premiums down. Already this week, since that happened three companies have turned me down as. a bad risk. So I resigned, and the editor refused my resignation. I don't know whether to kiss him or kick him. What do you think? Mail your replies at the telephone booth. f- Students of the Montana State College at Bozeman went on strike last week because the Dean of Women, issued an edict that all women must' be safely inside the doors, kissed goodnight by their boy-friends, by 11 p. m. Oh, the cruelty of it! Just think-—no oyster suppers, no midnight rides out under the moon —short dances. They couldn't even have serenades. Ain't it great that we live out in the enlightened West where Frosh parties may run until 1 1 :23? » » * * * That's pretty late for Frosh, tho. Another seven minuses and they might have had colic. Washington, as a state, seems to be confirmed to a program of non-subsidization of collegate athletics. Perhaps Bellingham should pull a "California," and find out why the best players are at Ellensburg. That's beside the point, though. ^It is notable that the two centers of athletics at the University of Washington—the stadium and the athletic pavilion—were both built by the students, from money taken in from student athletics, , coached by student paid instructors; TO HOLD DISCUSSIONS FITZWATER AND WESSLER TO REPRESENT NORMAL WHEN COLLEGE GROUPS CONVENE. With all this in mind, a recent headline appeared, "Hartley to Ask Drastic Cuts, State Spending." Probably with one fell swoop^he will lop off the physical education building for Normal, like a'. barber takes off a. side-burn when he is late for lunch.

Cummins, acting Dean. That Bellingham should send two delegates was decided at the meeting of the Board of Control last Tuesday afternoon. The choice of the delegates was left to Miss Cummins and the other members of the Social Science department. The department chose the persons that they felt were the best fitted to represent the school and bring back the most to the students at the Normal. The representatives will have their transportation furnished by the school. Rooms for all delegates are to be arranged for by Reed College, the host school, and board may be obtained at the commons for a nominal sum. Program Leeway The conference is for the purpose of studying international questions and especially those hinging upon Pacific relations. The students will meet at round table discussions and there will be lectures for the entire delegation. Some leeway is allowed in the program so that delegates may attend discussions of special interest to them.: The Board of Control, in addition to its action on the convention delegates, discussed business pertaining to the Klipsun. Several important matters were laid over until the next meeting because of the absence of two board members. The board will meet next Tuesday afternoon at' 4 o'clock, at. which time Mr. Sam Ford will give his quarterly report on the Students' Co-op. o— DOUBLE PIANOS USED AT RECENT CONCERT TRYOUT SYSTEM FOR " SELEpfldN OF DEBATE : 1VIEMBERS IS ALTERED Members of'the debate team will be chosen1 -this year not by tryout but by niierview, announces Mr. James Carfeil, debate coach; Next quarter a two-credit course in debate^ rehearsal will be offered.

T0BESCENE0F"W" CLUB VARSITY BALL MUSIC BY RATHMAN OVER ONE HUNDRED COUPLES TO ATTEND COLORFUL HOP. Presenting "a diversified program of classical and modern two-piano selections, Ethel Bartlett and Rae Robertson appeared at the First Presbyterian church last Monday evening under the auspices of the State Normal and Woman's Music Club of Bellingham. The program rendered by the talented couple was unusually well balanced, including several technical etudes illustrating the unquestionable skill of the pianists and some modern compositions revealing their depth of feeling and expression in their interpretations of piano music. Play Old Classics The early part of their recital was devoted to the older classics, in which their rendition of Brahm's "Variations, on a Theme of Hadyn" met with decided approval from the large audience in attendance. Their program, however, was opened by two numbers of Couperin and Bach's famous "Sonata in E Flat Major." The third part of the recital was devoted to lighter and more modern compositions, of which "Les Nymphes," by Gliere, was a most delightfully airy and fanciful selection which showed the limberness and nimbleness of the musicians' fingers. Closing this group gt; with "Spanish Dance," by Infante, their last group of artistic musical numbers included three comparatively modern romantic numbers noted for their melody rather than technical composition. '-. Ckmclud^ The two popular numbers by Areraky, "Walte^ ;and ^Ronumce/' were illustrative ol their skill in making their instruments fairly sing the melody. Concluding their program with the ever famous and romantic "Blue Danube Waltz," the artists proved their ability and mas- Entering in the model airplane contest, which is to be held at Bat-, tersby field tomorrow at 2:30, will be the Hobby Club members of the training school and also clubs from the city schools. This is the first model airplane meet to take place in Bellingham and about six different schools are competing. . Aviation Encouraged The Boy Scouts and schools are encouraging these aviation clubs, with the idea of educating boys in the principles of aviation, so that the future generation will be more air-minded!' This contest, which is being sponsored by the Y. M. C. A., is divided into four classes. The first includes planes with a twelve inch wing spread; second, planes with twenty inch wing spread; third, cabin planes; and fourth, all classes of planes. Prizes Are Offered Each school' competing is to enter as many planes as possible and prizes are offered in the form of model kits for the winners. The planes are powered with rubber bands. . Some of these models have been known to stay up as long as forty-four minutes. —— o—: Fisher Honor Guest At Columbia College While visiting the Teachers College at Columbia University in New York City, President C. H. Fisher was the honor guest at a dinner party reunion, given at Whittier Hall on Wednesday evening, November 12. This party was attended by several former instructors of the Bellingham Normal, including Mr. and Mrs. Herbert E. Fowler, Miss Leona Sundquist, Mr. Joe Hodges, Miss Kathleen Skalley, Miss Theresa Gunther, Mr. Elwopd. Davis and President C. H. Fisher. ••;'.' Left New York President Fisher arrived in New York on November 11 and left on November 18 for Washington, D. C, where he attended the Child's Health Conference. He enjoyed himself immensely during his-stay in New. York, according toiiMiss Osborne, who received this'-j hews in a letter from Miss McPherson. The Varsity ball, sponsored by the *'W" club, which is one of the biggest events of the season, will be held tomorrow night in the Crystal ball room of the Leopold hotel from 9 to 12 p. m. Houses are giving 12:30 leave. - This is the first "W" club dance attempted for several years and it is anticipated that this will be the most successful one ever given. Nearly Sold Out Sale of tickets started several weeks ago and they were practically sold out the first week, 115 tickets being sold. Each "W" club member was held responsible for selling five tickets. Music will be furnished by Sam Rathman's "Varsity Vagabonds." In the intermission a unique football novelty will be given.

Is he missed when not on deck to captain this ship of education? Is the school so organized that it runs smoothly without him? Answering such questions brings about the realization that a leader is necessary despite the various wellj organized departments. If one is •to take only the matter of activities, and leave the "inside" workings that We seldom see, alone, he will find several of these lagging. Leaving it entirely to some of the old students of the school, "Homecoming wasn't Homecoming without Prexy." There is a certain ideal that causes such a situation. Armistice Day rolled around, and if it hadn't been for the half holiday it.is doubtful if we would have been wise. The usual 1 1 o'clock pausing period, which is almost universal, was not adopted here. Although in the past it hasn't been adhered to, either, it is something for a teachers' training school to take seriously. It is time they realized that there is more thinking on the subject of the war done in that pausing period than during the whole afternoon of vacation. Yet, that is almost beside the point, for there is a chance that it would have been carried out had the President been here. Last of all, we noticed that the,last Musical Artists' course was practically devoid of school advertising. In the past these concerts have held the center of attention at the time of appearance and the students have been urged and given many opportunities to attend. We are sure ffiat.it would have been flaunted before the students many times, as well Aas.a lot more punch put into the other mentioned activities. IS SPORTSMANSHIP GONE? In the last few years it has been a tendency for some of the big ; "powers that be" in college football circles to start warring with one of c their outstanding rivals. Incidentally, connected with this are daring charges brought against each other. This season's prize goes to the three big California institutions. They are now engaged in a mud-slinging war that daily involves many charges, denials, and non-commentary attitudes. The students in the institutions are taking many.of the matters on their own shoulders, particularly through their press organs. The faculties are biding their time and making a few guarded statements, while the alumni are either approving or looking down with disdain.- Can it be that the schools making the charges really believe that their rival institutions are paying their athletes too much money, or is it possible that some of this much:talked-of good college sportsmanship has run amuck at the humility of being snowed under by 74 points in a recent game? Does the fact that a small northern college measured the cream of the coast for the championship enter into the hard feeling in any way? Last year, at the time the Carnegie report on college football was submitted, Southern California ranked up in the top row for being one of the Worst offenders on the hired athlete list. This may possibly justify the charges of California University. In.all probability the charges are based on some facts and foregone conclusions, and the remainder of the reason for the fight is a natural jealousy caused from extreme rivalry, climaxed with the worst defeat on the coast for some time. ' :; A; symphony ' concert that'.:• is decidedly not too "highbrbw,'' is, in the words of Harold B. ;Smith, conductor, what the Bellingham Symphony Orchestra plans to present next Tuesday evening. "The concert will consist of popular orchestral compositions and the lighter classics that can be understood- and enjoyed by all who are interested in,music," said Mr. Smith. Players Secured • "Every number of this program is full of beautiful melodies, piquant rhythms, and gorgeous orchestral tone coloring. In order that the whole range of orchestral color may be made available to the audience, instrument players that are lacking in Bellingham will be secured from the Seattle Symphony Orchestra. Of special interest jto lovers pf harp music ,is the fact that Mr. Herbert Graff solo harpist of the Seattle Symphony, will play at the concert." in describing one number Mr. Smith continued: "The popular 'Danse Macabre' of SaintrSaens is to be played. This is a. musical description of the dance of the skeletons who come from their graves as the clock strikes midnight. The fiddler tuning up his instrument is next heard, and then the dance begins, first quietly and softly, then gradually working itself into a veritable frenzy, which is interrupted by the crowing of the cock, announcing the dawn. The skeletons all return to their graves until another night. Saint-Saens has em-i ployed the xylophone to give the effect of rattling bones, and the cock crow, when used, is decidedly realistic." Accoustics Good Special emphasis has been laid on the acoustics of the American theater, where the concert is to be held. The Student Association tickets will admit Normal students to the concert. This will be the first of three concerts to be given by the orchestra, this season, and marks the beginning of the third year of this musical group. o— Hey! Hey! Hey! We hafta admit i t We didn't write all of the juice of the hill last week. And we hereby wish to present to Sir Stanley Hovland this here fragrant bunch of onion tops in token of our deep appreciation of his willing co-operation with us. We possess a deep curiosity to know, though, whether that salutation of his, "I owe, everybody, I owe", is original or. stolen from Rudy Vallee. . ^Initial Prexy Js Not My, but it's cold! ONE-MINUTE DEBATE Resolved, that the men students of BSNS never think at all, that they do not think, and that they don't think. AFFIRMATIVE: For reasons best kown to us, which, are perfectly obvious anyway, we do not see fit to argue on this side. Cripes, a guy can't argue on both sides, can he? NEGATIVE: Here's where we shine. We gotta proof, see, an example. Jus' lissen: BOOK ANNIVERSARY IS SCHOOL FEATURE Continued from Page 1 grade was in charge and the assembly was put on by the seventh and eighth grade pupils. Dramatizations were given of popular story books and the students were given a chance to guess what they were. The Mother Goose rhymes were worked out in pantomimes and several unique book reports were given. In the dramatizations and pantomimes emphasis was placed on the interpretation rather than on costumes. Day before yesterday one of the' prominent male STUDENTS of these parts left the Viking office to go to the Men's Club room, where he intended to leave a book for another maie STUDENT. He strolled idly along, an absent expression on his face, a vacant stare in his eyes. Don't think just because we said he was absent and vacant that he wasn't all there. (F'gosh sakes); well, anyway, there he went. He came to the door of the Men's Club room. -He opened it, and went in. He was mildly surprised to note that the walls were all white. Then he was a little taken aback when he realized that he was meeting three girls coming out. He paused for a moment, and did a little THINKING. (Get that„ honorable judges, THINKING.) After his THOUGHT, he concluded that he was in the wrong place, so he turned around and went out again. There was really little else to do, as he / had concluded after his THOUGHT. Now, please, who says that the men of BSNS don't think? * * * * ....Hey,, you; % * ? %lb ?!! % % %lb WA% " — ??? !!! ** $$ lb % %, turn on the heat! D'y' think this is a oh, good morning, Mrs. Ritz. Wonderful weather, what? Children and small women first. DEMOCRACY A N D S T U D E N T RULE Another breaking out of the spirit of wanted democracy and student rule is witnessed at Bozeman, Montana, where the Montana State College is situated. .•The dean of women ruled that the men must have the women in by •eleven o'clock. The students objected and claimed that they have a right to decide such matters. They have been on a strike since, Friday and not a class has been . held, due to the lack of students. , Their demands ask for rallies at any time, regardless of classes, and the right of the senate to veto social rules. Looking over several other Normal school social rules and the issue in Montana, the local school is fair and lenient. ••'H^SKC' ': • D O T H E Y STUDY? ,- •' ^Last week the nation in general celebrated Education Week.

This was his sixth performance here. Mr.: Johnson commented on the various folk songs, telling about each. The program included airs from many lands— Scotland) Sweden, Ireland, Mexico, Hungary, Africa, England, and the United State*. Judging from the applause of the audience, the cowboy songs were enjoyed most. The three cowboy tunes sung were "The Old Chisholm Trail, "The Texas Cowboy's Last Song, and "The Bold Vaquero." ••; o - — - — • ' KLIPSUN PICTURES Because the juniors have voiced a desire to use their sophomore pictures in the Klipsun again this year, the matter has been taken up by the Klipsun editor, Suzanne Waters. Miss Waters when' questioned in regard to the matter said, "Those juniors who have not as yet had their pictures taken, can use their last year's pictures. There is no point, however, in doing this, since it will cost the same amount for a. reprint. The last year's prints have a different background which does not harmonize with those being used this year. I would prefer having the students arrange for new pictures." ENGAGED Mrs. P. S. Griffith of Bellingham has received the; announcement of the engagement of her sister, Miss Violet Thornhill, formerly a student of the Normal, to Mr. George Baer of California. Miss Thornhill graduated from Whatcom high school and attended the Normal in 1926. o WEEK-END IN SEATTLE Misses Anna Ullin and Lucy Kangley spent last week-end visiting in Seattle. o Scoop A frenzied shriek, a mad scurrying, and then—CRASH! That was what happened when two of the more active of the student body scuffled in the office of The Northwest Viking, and it also explains the glass in the door being broken. It was all an accident, say the guilty parties, for when the pursuer chased the pursued through the door, it wasn't the fault of the pursued that the darn door had to hit on the edge of the cases harboring the specimens of animal life and break into several thousand pieces (rough estimate only), and, besides that, how could, she know that the one who broke it out had to.pay for having it put in and the name printed on it again. We will never do it again, say the guilty parties, if you will let us off this time. Ho-hum, and so to bed. LOALLA INDOOR GOLF HENRY HOTEL Cor.

Just following the intermission the girls were all given gas-filled balloons which lasted almost a dance before the "destructive spirit" overcame the men, with the result of many a loud explosion. Punch and cookies were served during the party in the hall outside the gym. During the intermission two dance numbers were given. One was by Kathleen Horton and the other by Jean Mouso and June White, pupils of Miss Irene Ober-mueller. Wynn Haws of the Art Department gave a chalk talk. Smith Leads Del Smith was general chairman of the frolic, Edith Jenkins had charge of decorations, Cathleen Hill Was chairman of the refreshment committee, and Harriet Porter was program chairman.

CHENEY NORMAL Many Normal students had an eventful week-end when in Seattle last Saturday to see the game between Washington State College and the University of Washington. Jim O'Hearn, Bob Walters, Earl Hutch-ins, Bruce Kibble, Stan Hovland, Gordon Nichols, and Barry Jewell drove down, leaving Saturday morning and returning after the game. Russell Nybefg and Gordon Leen also drove down. They stayed over for the Homecoming dance. . Women Attend Mary McDonald, Helen Harlow, Suzanne Waters, Prances Wilmarth, and Eilene Morrison saw the game and that evening attended the Kappa Kappa Gamma pledge dance. The girls spent the evening with friends at the sorority, and returned to Bellingham Sunday. Beryle Windle with her folks from Spokane, and Orleane Pitcha with friends in Seattle were also at the game last week-end. WASHINGTON STATE NORMAL SCHOOL, Cheney, Nov. 19.—I.N.P.) —The Whitman College Glee Club will present the opera "Hansel and Gretel" in the Normal auditorium November 25. Sutton Hall, the men's dormitory, entertained the girls of Monroe Hall at open house Saturday evening. Plans are being made for the 1931 Kinnikinick, the Normal annual. Tryouts for the operetta, "Rosa-munde," were held Monday evening. Fifty men reported for basketball practice last week. Four of these are lettermen. Six girls were initiated into the Tawanka Society, a women's honorary, last week. The girls' basketball tourney began Thursday afternoon. Five teams are participating. °———r .. HORSEBACK RIDE Having great admiration for that very well known gentleman of history known as Mr. Paul Revere, five girls, under the 'leadership of Miss Marjory Horton, decided to reproduce his ride in Bellingham last Friday. Revere achieved historical mention, but so far all the girls have achieved is an earnest desire to carry a pillow around to sit upon and a bottle of liniment to soothe those many aches and pains. "Gay" Smith was the most adventurous of the group, as her horse took sudden fright at some little bug in the road and bolted away, with "Gay" clinging perilously to its back and trying vainly to check his run. After most of the group had tried to stop the runaway, the mad animal stopped of its own accord. Those who went on the ride were: Ellinor. Anderson, Kathleen Horton, "Gay" Smith/ Dorothy Rees, Jerry Swick, and Miss Marjory Horton. lonoc [OBOE TURKEY DANCE THANKSGIVING NIGHT, NOVEMBER 27 Crystal Ballroom Leopold Hotel Music by Ken Heun and His Washingtonians f Dancing From 9 Until 1 2 P.

On the next play/ Iverson, shifty Viking half, skirted end for 13 yards, placing the baU on the io-yard line. Failing to gain substantially on three plays the Vikings tried a place kick which foiled when the ball was fumbled and EUensburg took the ball on -.downs. :• Oh the first play for the Wildcats, McKay gained 20 yards on an end run. Again toward the end of the period this flashy, wildcat behind perfect interference, ran for 30 yards and Ellsnburg's first score. Third Quarter Dull The game seemed to drag a little during the third quarter with neither team making gains of consequence. However, during the final period the Wildcats seemed to hit their stride and, aided by intercepting Viking passes, piled up three touchdowns. It was in this quarter that Bruzas galloped 40 yards to score. - Another touchdown came shortly when a BeUingham pass was intercepted by Exley and three plays later proved it to cause a touchdown. The Viking line showed up well at this period. The final score soon .followed when-Taylor took a punt on the 48-yard line. He took the ball on the' next play and tore off 28 yards. Then a ten-yard pass was complete, a couple of line drives and the Viking goal was again crossed. This made the score 26-0, where it stood throughout the remainder of the game. The Wildcats proved themselves to be deserving of the crown for they out-played the Vikings in every way. .Wilder, Flowers and Iverson showed up well for Bellingham's backfield and Abbott, Viking end, played a great game on the line. -i:—-— 0 ; .

A.large squad is out and the second cut of •-the season will take place sometime(this coming week. The first cut left ftfteeh'out of thirty-eight men oh the; squad, but since that time a number of football men have started turning put so that the number now is about thirty again. John Dixon, Ole Thorson, and Jim Rork are the only lettermen left over from last year's squad. Jock Peterson, another member of the 1929-30' team is expected to enter school in the winter quarter and if he does the team will be strengthened a lot, for he is a, good man with lots of experience at playing in the forward position. \ Ken Murray, Albert Thompson and Cliff Leman are lettermen from the junior college in Mount Vernon and should show up well in action. This boy Leman is a fast fellow and plays a demon game at forward, while the other two boys are guards. Another Skagit county boy, Bill Hopkins of football fame, is an all-county center from Sedro-Wool ley. Hopkins should fill that empty center job very nicely. Oh, Oh! We must not forget Mr. Wilder, that member of the Wildest family known as Dutch. He was on the team in the season of 1913-14 and should be heard from again this season. Dutch is a guard and a good one, too. The football boys had a glorious time at EUensburg, but were defeated 26-0 in a game played in two inches of snow. Those cowboys over there had a strong team this year and we should not frown on our team for losing by such a score. EUensburg has not lost a game as yet this year and have tied the strong Gonzaga varsity, which is something for them to be proud of. Football is all over now for this year at BeUingham and the girls will be getting a break again. It was hard on the poor girls during the season worrying whether or not the boys would get back by 9 o'clock to take them to the informal or to the sophomore party. It really was a strain on them, the little dears, and they should encourage their men not to play basket ball, for the basket baU boys practice every night. Won't that be terrible? Our suggestion for the book of the month is the rule book for basket baU. A little concentration on that Bible of rules and there would be a lot less quarreling on the floor during practice.

DORM GIRLS DANCE STYLES yOR MEN PICTURE EXHIBIT —By Catherine Morse We picked up a pencil the other day—it was red. It was such a nice, long, shiny pencil that we were sorry when we happened to drop it. Where the paint chipped off, there were yellow flecks on the red pencil r—it had at one time been yellow. Then we happened to wonder how many of us show yellow flecks when we get a little-hard wear. . . . • ' • • • * • * • * • ^ • There is one professor up here who always advises us to try to learn a n e w word every day. In fact he advocated the same to all of his classes; as it seemed to us to be a good idea, we" sort of took him up oh it.' "Quihtessentializd" is our lat-fest acquisition. It is a great word, isn't it? Its meaning is to stir the [emotions to white heat, in case you don't happen to know. Amy Lowell says that to quint- . essentidlize is the purpose of every modern poet. We think that it is also ^applicable to the purpose of every budding journalist. The only trouble is, though, that a poet can get away with almost anything in the line of quintessenlialization and he 4s excused—"poetic license," while the poor columnist—well, there has to ,be some subject for gt; student opinions. "V . : . - • ' . . • - • ' - . . *. • * * Since we made the remark about clockwatchers in our last column, we have been accosted in every class by irate, neighbors who demanded "if they, had been the butt of our chance slander. In uncouth American, we coiild have replied, "The pig that's poked is the pig that squealed." But really, we didnt have anybody in particular in mind. * * * We think it's an excellent idea -T-thisimidrSummer dance that the Dorm girls are staging tomorrow night. It shows that even in the summer, time they have fine organi- -zation. We hope that the outside girls will crash through with their quarterly dance also this summer. .Past summers have seen very successful Women s League dances, J * • . ' . * ' . • * " • Every day that certain members of The Viking staff are together in the office a heated discussion takes place on the subject of dress and other things, in general. The most rapid remarks flow from the lips of Lyle "Handsome" Summers, our estimable business" manager who favors comfort first in | h e styles of .men's dress on the dance floor. It is his view that if a man "gets hot" at one of the, Women's League dances,, or at any. other dance, formal or otherwise; it* should be his privilege.^ or rather RIGHT, to remove his coat and vest and hop to it. (Some men are so masterful.) Now We Would like to put-ourselves right on the side of Mri Summers. We are highly in favor of our great big men-folks being just as ^comfortable as possible and are hoping and praying that it will-im'- probe their dancing. We feel it looks mighty nice to keep our boys sweet and informal,at all the dances, and it lends a homey atrhpsphere, just'like mother used to make. Awl you have to admit that it looks plenty pretty to see all the girls in satin evening dresses dancing with these domineering man-things in rolled: shirt-sleeves and open collars. gt; • : • ' • ' • • * * • ' • * .

Fisher this week released the following registration statistics:' - '••-J- ,';- ;; The present enrollment of the summer session is 1033 students. Of this number there are 90 Freshmen, 195 Sophomores and 748 are upper division students doing third and fourth year work, mostly third year work. There are 53 students enrolled, at Friday * Harbor.' The significant thing about the enrollment is the large number of upper division students'which constitutes almost three-fourths of the. total enrollment. This is a complete reversal of the enrollment that occurred only 5 years ago when most of the students were lower division students and there were not mpre than 150 upper division students. Of the 39 counties in the state there are students here from 36 counties. Besides the State of Washington, there are 18 other states represented in the enrollment including 20 from Montana, 47 from Oregon and 6 from Alaska. ' ' • ' • • ' • -o —— NORMAL GRADS IN CITY TENNIS MEET Last Tuesday, in assembly, the students were,,- treated with an illustrated lecture on China by Herbert Clarence White, A. B. ' This, was the first of two lectures, the second given in this morning's assembly by James Henry White, A. B. The White brothers have just returned from eight years of residence in China. Chinese Art and Architecture, was the topic of the lecture Tuesday by Herbert Clarence White., Mr. White told the story of romantic Peking. His talk was illustrated by lantern slides of remarkable composition. The balance, form, and artistry of the slides combined to give an effect that was beautiful in the blending of color and cleverness of the ro-, mantic scenes. Headed Educational Interest This title of the lecture this morning was, "China, Old and New", given by James Henry White. MTi White spent eight years in the interior of XJhina; heading the edr ucational interests of the Seventh Day Adventist Mission Board in North China. In the lecture, Mr. White depicted conditions during the days of conflict in China, when the Nationalist armies were forcing their way northward toward Peking. The city of Tsinan. was described during its capture and occupation by the Japanese forces/ Eye Witness of Battles Mr White was an eye-witness to the capture of both Peking and Tsinan by the Southern Nationalist forces; he also told of the results of the great political struggle, and its relation to foreign countries,, commerce, religion, and the life of the people. The White brothers, have beeririri China for eight years; during this" time they have traveled extensively through South Chekiangy China's romantic "Garden of the Gods", and other beauty.spots famous in .Oriental literature and history. Many of these trips were taken at the peril of their lives from roving bands' of brigands. To describe the beauty of some of the scenes they saw it is necessary to resort to the adjective of, the old time circus barker. gt; Many students were interested to know that the photographs exhibited in the hall were colored by Chinese artists, following the original models exactly. Many of the photographs were taken under unusually difficult conditions, but excellent compositions were obtained by the use of special lenses. - TRIP TO HANNEGAN IS CALLED OFF.

Consider Of fer of Science Dept. . The exhibit of Japanese Cold Prints, which has been held this week in the Art department on the third floor, will end this 'afternoon.' The number ofy prints has decreased rapidly, since the exhibit opened Wednesday morning, because stur dents and townspeople have been purchasing the prints and removing them from the display-room. "The students have shown an unusual interest in this exhibit", Miss Marie C. Druse, of the Art department declared, "And have bought a great number of-.the prints". . Many people who have formed a liking for Japanese prints are unaware, of the,skill which is needed to produce them. Most of the prints on display have been reproduced.' from the old masters, but in exactly the same manner as was employed three or four centuries ago when the woodcut print was proving its right to be known as a medium of Japanese artistic expression: The prints are made by the use of. wood cuts, and the various shades and colors which appear in each print demand separate blocks for the impression. Consequently, in an ordinary print, from ten to fifteen wood blocks are used, all of which must be carved by hand and made to align with the other impressions.

Perhaps when people have Jearned of the remarkable development of Oriental thought and art, there will be a new missionary coming back from Asia* Men like Herbert Clarence and James Henry White may be the vanguard. i . , o— —••—^ UNSUCCESSFUL COLLEGE STUDENTS One of the most unpleasant by-products of our colleges, as we see it, is that unhappy individual who may well be described by the term, Unsuccessful College Graduate. You meet him nearly everywhere you go, a little run down at the heels, obviously hard-pressed for money, but still presenting the appearance of a well-dressed man, and putting up a bold front to the world to which he has been unable to adjust himself. H e may have a "philisophy of life", but it is one which alienates him from, rather than .leads him into harmony with the society into which he was born. Because he possesses the rudiments of culture he refuses to lower himself to do common labor, and because he has not acquired proficiency in a profession or a trade, he can find nothing else. Because Henry Ford and one of the local millionaires can write big checks which are always honored at the bank, he feels that no college man, and particularly •one who is infinitely superior in intellect to these opulent individuals, should begin his economic apprenticeship for less than, let us say, five or six thousand dollars a year (and what can a' man do on that, with all of the avenues to success blocked by these bigger and better highway- . men?). And because he can't start in the front office of the first corporation to which he offers himself for employment, and because they want to put him in the basement piling packing boxes, he becomes profoundly dissatisfied with life in general. He becomes, to his friends, an iconoclast of the higher order, a rebel against the sordid materialism of this industrial age, and rather a sour fellow to argue with in a friendly debate, while to his intimate friends, and more probably his family, he becomes a rather feeble form of remittance man. It seems to us that if our colleges turned out fewer corporation attorneys, corporation executives, and bond salesmen, and fitted more men with a state of mind that would allow them to enjoy themselves and be happy on fifteen dollars a week while they learned, immediately after their graduation, what a hard old world this is, there would be fewer Unsuccessful College Graduates out in the field trying to tip over our existing institutions »by talking about thein. And then there might be more who were really "in there" working and doing something about making them over. .'.-'' -.-. ;—:—o— — S T U D E N T REC B A N D We were glad to learn that the Board of Control elected to use student'made music at the weekly Rec hours, despite the fact that the student band had only enjoyed a short rehearsal before the tryouts in competition with a professional town orchestra. The action of the Board should be a good precedent to future school representatives, and an encouragement to the student musicians in the future'who wish to play to help themselves through school. All of the student organizations should hang together to see that student funds are distributed back to the students themselves whenever possible. Personals From Here and There Mrs/ May Lovegren drove down to Seattle Tuesday. With her were Bernice Persohn, Evelyn Elliott, and Margery Allen.

The second step of my platform does not need further explanation. ' If we do hot have good Cafe' teria service (I dorit know) it is not the fault of the administration, but rather a desire on their part to provide for the best food at the least price. Last night I visited the tennis courts and found five outsiders playing on two courts ' and four Normal students waiting. Such a situation does not need any explanation either. Definite rules are posted on the main gate of the ten-nis courts. Please, let us all try io enforce and obey them. Two years ago the entire Normal school, students and faculty, rented a boat for a day and visited that quaint old city of Victoria. It was a pleasant journey and all remember it as one of the most interesting phases of their lives. Last year such a trip was impossible due to international law... Perhaps we could find a way to permit such a . trip this year. -r gt; "^••••-•'-.- v / never get any sleep anymore in my classes.

As it now stands/ Swamp Rabbits have ^undisputed claim to top honors, having won both of their games, while the rest have dropped at least one contest. The game Tuesday night proved to be the/best thriller of the season. sary to decide the winner and it was not until the closing seconds of the third one that Swanson dropped in one for the winning tallies. Starting from the start, it was apparent that rough play would feature every minute. Twelve fouls were called by Referee Pop Gunn. At the end of the regular time the score stood 20 all. A three minute overtime period was had and it was found that each side had caged one field goal, making the score 22 up. In the second extra time neither side was able'to do much as the whole team swarmed all over anyone with the ball within scoring distance. The third period opened with cautious checking, each team waiting for a break. The Pets caged a field goal and it looked as though the spectators could go home but in a few seconds Vanadis came back and tied the score. In the last few seconds a pass from Omeg to Swanson put the ball in scoring distance. The whistle blew shortly after the ball passed through the rim.. The final count was 26-24 for the Mac's Pets. High point,honors were taken by Brown, who tallied 13. Johnson, of Mac's Pets, led his teammates with 10 markers, closely followed by Rhodes, with 8.

It will be due to any one or perhaps any ten of the sixty people signed up to pursue the intricacies of the dancing called tapping. The majority of the sixty chose to learn tapdancing, even though Miss Hor-ton assured them that it was hard and would take a great deal of prac • tice.

Training School SERVICE CLUB IS ACTIVE The school Service Club of the eighth grade, which has been an organization in the training school for several years, has become more active this summer under the administration of Miss Crawford. The club offers a splendid example of pupil-teacher co-operation in the handling of matters pertaining to school affairs. It also serves the double purpose of providing experience in club work/ along with some sense of responsibility, independence and ^ initiative. Everyone in the class is an active member of one, of the four committees, with the end in view of potential leadership being developed. The Room committee maintains an attractive apeparance in the class room. It is the duty of the Library committee to take care, of the magazines on the library table, to keep books on it and to see that these books are of a stimulating nature The bulletin board is kept up-to-date by a Bulletin,Board committee, and the Service committee takes up problernV in connection with school civics and works them out, with conferences with Miss Rich.

All his men are in fine shape following the strenuous journey and all seem to have that optimistic feeling that the Savages will have a very large evening of basketball when they tangle with the Vikings. Davis Big Threat Davis, rangy center for Cheney, is causing Bellingham coaches to iose a wee bit of sleep. It is around this scoring machine that Cheney builds her bewildering blocking attack. The Blue and White have drilled hard since their first encounter with the Savages and feel equal to the task of stopping their offensive drive. ••••- gt;' Blocking Game To add interest to this game next Wednesday, i t might be well to describe this famous blocking, offensive play of the visiting Savages. Cheney starts their drive by placing their tall center, Davis, with his back to the basket, out hear the foul line. It i s from this strategic position that he feeds the ball to his teammates as they cut close to and behind him for short shots. Many times, to make matters worse, the elongated center turns about and takes a shot from where he stands, with his mates blocking out the opposing team's players. In order to stoip this type of game Bellingham has to work out a complicated defensive system that involves rapid changing of men. A player must drop his man and take Tickets Must be Obtained For Frbsh Party littance When the clock strikes 8:15 tonight the mysteries of the sea will be unfolded as the freshman class hold their party in the big gym.

Leaving on June 4, 1931, he and his crew started across the Atlantic in the submarine Nautilus, with the North Pole as their destination. After crossing 5,000 miles of ocean and coming within 450 miles of the pole, he proved that a submarine is the most feasible means of transportation in that region. Scientific Investigation In the submarine he dove under the frozen Arctic, rode beneath 17 feet of ice and found in the depths much Of scientific value. He also conducted scientific research over the ice on foot when conditions permitted. He intends to go again— this time in a better craft and in a better season of the year. Aside from, this he has been on airplane expeditions to the Arctic and trips to the Antarctic but the most unusual was that in the submarine.; * - (This evening a t . 8 o'clock he will appear at the American theater under the auspices of the American Legion.

Read "Equality" From a quotation by Rabbi Irving F. Reichert, of Temple Emanuel, San Francisco, contributed to us, is the following extract taken. "Unless the New Year brings us a new attitude toward life, it will do well to deny us the prosperity we implore. A few more years of yesterday's wealth and vulgar ostentation, and our national debility would have been far more ominous than our national debt. If we have wisdom and the grace to learn from the present depression that abundant wealth does not make for abundant living, this adversity will not prove an unmixed evil. Making a life will always be more important ' than making a living." This period of economic strife we are now experiencing has the possibility of instilling two contrasting doctrines in the minds of all persons affected. There is the possibility, as thought by many, that the American people will think less of money and more of life; that recreation will assume greater proportions as an item in everyday life, and that man will think more of living than making a living. On the other hand, is there not the possibility that the deprivations experienced by us will give impetus to even greater efforts at money making and money. hoarding? Will not the memory of former luxuries recreate in the American people the same money lust as before? We doubt if any blessings coming from the depression will come from or to the so-called "moneyed class". Especially apt at the present time is that bit of philosophy by Edward Bellamy from his book "Equality" called the "Parable of the Water Tank". To those who have never read the book and to those who have not recently seen it, we recommend it as interesting and worth while. Perhaps more than ever before is the problem pre sented in this parable applicable to an existing economic situation. The expressions in the story are so Tealistic and applicable to the present they are almost humorous. "Equality" may not have been a prophecy, but it is especially interesting in the light of present day economic unrest.

Communication oram 1 H H To the Editor: "Students would appreciate more good speakers and lecturers at the expense of highbrow music." Perhaps the term "highbrow" was ill chosen, but the statement quite expresses the opinion of many students, who prefer worthwhile, valve- giving entertainment to music, not as well chosen and well played or sung as it might be. More outstanding personalities such as Lewis Browne and Sir Hubert Wilkins can be better understood, and can bring more to the student body than our so-called "artists" who strive more to demonstrate- their superb qualities and remarkable control over their xne-d i ^ b ^ give ttu^ auaiOT v**13" known masterpieoes of music. 1/ would seem better to eliminate the poorer ones now presented on our stage, for a sufficient time to allow funds to accumulate in order that a smaller number of truly great personages could be brought to our assemblies. If this cannot be done, why should we have to listen to the same thing constantly? We have a group of sopranos, a run of 'cellists, a run of contraltos. Why not stir them up a bit and add a bit of variety to our programs if we cannot have quality? Some of us would like one or the other. Quality and variety are the things we desire above all else in our assemblies. C. H.

Any woman student of the school who is interested in joining the group is urged to report to Miss Cummins in the Dean's office as soon as possible. 'Bulletins Published The national league publishes a bulletin each month in which are brief accounts of the activities of the various college leagues, the College League News. The state legislative council also puts out a bulletin of women voters' news one during every two months. The group which is to be organized here would receive copies of both of these bulletins each time they come out. The president of the state league is Mrs. Mabel Murray of Seattle, and it is through her efforts that college leagues are being organized here in the state. o DODGE CITY, KAN.

Gracey Carmichael—"It makes no difference whether it's leap year or not, for 111 get what I want anyway, If a boy could get a girl;to ask him around during leap year, more power to him.*' : Our little "Swedish",: tomboy seems to have great confidence in herself, andwe sincerely hope that the men around school take note of this. '. _ -V Janet Dodson—"Leap year is no different than any other year to me, even though it is one whole day longer than the average." We hope that Janet, our ex-University of Washington blonde, will "get wise" and go to work while opportunity knocks at her door. Betty Watts—"Leap year has not changed my attitude at all. I have never believed there need be a "girls' turn." Accepting a boy's invitation should be sufficient encouragement to jusify further relations. "However, I think that asking a boy does not imply pursuit or the returning of an obligation. It is, in the case of a boy asking a girl, a friendly statement that one enjoys his company. Most friendships are informal and frank envy so that asking a boy is all right, although gt; it seems more complimentary to have the boy begin the asking." That's very good logic, we think, but our Betty seems very formal about telling her opinions. Vaughn Howell—"Leap year has its advantages for those that are matrimonially inclined but that leaves me out." Vaughn also said that the girls should be glad to get the supreme opportunity once in four years. Is Miss Howell fickle or is she just afraid of getting into hot water.

VIKINGS TRAVEL TO MEET C.P.S. LOGGERS Off on their second road trip of the season, Coach Sam Carver and his band of Viking basketball toss-ers will leave this afternoon for Tacoma, where they will engage the College of Puget Sound Saturday evening. The Loggers are reputed to have a strong team of veterans and a number of promising men from the football squad. The Loggers so far this season have had fair results, winning a number of games and losing to the IT. of W. and to El-lensburg. The Vikings will make the trip minus the services of Flowers, who has a disabled hand. Wahl and McBeath are scheduled to start at forward, with Johanesen and Kien-ast in the back courts and Rork at center. This leaves Campbell, Sherman and McNeil on the bench. MANOR IS CLIMBING AS THESPIANS LOSE Manorites Behind at Half But Rally to Win' Time In the feature game Friday afternoon, January 22, Viking Manor scored heavily on The Thespians, in a second half rally, to roll up a decisive 40 to 24 victory. During the first half the Thes- , plans couldn't miss, and sensational shooting by Stoddard and Walters, Thespian stars, helped along their cause: Stoddard slipped down in the corners a couple of times to loop in some pretty push shots. Walters was especially effective around the foul line. Quartet Score Heavily Gable, Loomis, Griffen, and Zwascha led the second half scoring orgy as the Manor five piled up 28 points in this period while holding the Thespians down to 11 points. Gable and Loomis both annexed 10 markers apiece and Griffen and Zwascha totaled eight apiece. At half time it looked like the highV touted Manorites were doomed to defeat because of the stellar playing of the Thespians who were leading 13 to 12. But prospects of a w4n were slowly demolished in the aecond canto. McCarthy did all he could to avert defeat with some spectacular playing during which time he annexed nine points.

Any team that can trounce the University of Idaho, hold the Universities of Washington and Oregon to two-point victories, can be expected to roll up a big score against a smaller college or normal school.

The Wildcat mentor used two full teams and every man garnered tWo or more points. -—° ° But in the Yakima Junior College game it was a horse of a different color. Obviously, the Vikings were playing against an inferior team but the discouraging tone of the game the evening before slowed the local squad terrifically... The Vikings had about as much luck as a woodpecker in a.petrified forest and failed to come through for the much wanted victory. Undoubtedly the local hoopsters will down the J. C.'s in the game here February 16. W In the final half of the Cheney game the Savages had more grit than a Death Valley sandstorm and bowled over the much-pummeled Vikings in a hard-fought 39-25 game. The score was all tied up at twenty-all with twelve minutes remaining to Z play. At this point of the game the Savages threw 'er into high and rapidly rolled up an impressive score. rCS-^ £* T n e Cneney agregation used the blocking style of offense to a great advantage and had the Viking defense Bewildered time after time with the Savage forward wall crashing through and taking them out like a quartet of Ernie Pinckerts. Then the fifth man would totter through the battered remains. and roll in a basket. o o We hear that Rufus Riser, former University of Washington and Washington Athletic Club distance flash, is all washed up as a miler and will not be entered in the Olympic Games this year. This news came as a distinct blow to the United States hopes in the distance events in the Games. Riser had a world-record performance in his system the spring of 1930. He took the track against Ralph Hill, of Oregon, at Eugene... Rufe ran the greatest race of his life that day and made the mile in the amazing time of 4.13, but Hill ran it in a little over 4:12 to beat the Washington flash by a couple of strides. Thus, Riser never had a record to show for his prowess. He merely took second to the 1930 intercollegiate champion; but what a second! o o With just a little better than average weather and Lady Luck hovering about the Viking camp, Coach Sam Carver should turn out one of the finest cinder squads in history. Although he lost several fine distance men last year, Sam has a much stronger field squad than the 1931 outfit embraced. A few of the up and coming stars are: DeLancey, 440 man from Mount Baker with a 53.4 mark; Iver Moe three-year football letter-man and former state high school discus champion and a participant in the high school interscholastic meet in Chicago. He has a mark of nearly 140 feet; Bob Hall, 440 man from Kent, who placed second his heat at the state high school meet. More of the future track neophytes include the names of Les Williams, Viking football star, and an all-'round track man. He specializes in the broad jump—Meyers, Arlington flash, and an outstanding pole vaulter. He has leaped eleven feet six inches into the stratosphere and may do better—Wasley, Whatcom kangaroo, who has done better than twenty feet in the broad, jump—Brewer, football letter winner and former W. S. C. flash who has heaved the Grecian spear around 170 feet, Well, folks, thals not bad for a start. And we have more, for you next week. o o And now for a little information as to the individual scoring of ye Varsity basketeers in their past five games. In the quintet of intercollegiate games participated in, one % James Rork, Viking center, is leading **% with thirty-seven markers. Sixteen ^NJrof these came in the St. Martin's ^ CS battle. Clint McBeath is next in line with just one point less than his team mate, Rork. Wahl, diminutive forward, follows with thirty-three points. When the smoke of battle had cleared away after the Cheney game it was found that Wahl had been the most consistent scorer in the three game series and had garnered twenty-two points in the jaunt. McBeath followed with thirteen. SHATTERED ON TRIP Ellensburg W^dcats Administer Trouncing to" Nbrmalites With sails flapping listlessly and their oars battered and broken, the Viking hoopsmen wearily pulled into port from a disastrous three-: game series in Eastern Washington. Dropping contests to Ellensburg Normal, Yakima Junior College and Cheney Normal the Viking men have lost all the prestige that they won in copping their first two games of the season on the home court. Outstanding Team The Vikings were absolutely unable to cope with the fast, strong Ellensburg aggregation and dropped the first game of the jaunt 52-12. Judging from all reports from the game the Wildcats are set on keeping the Tri-Normal championship deeply rooted in Ellensburg. This Wildcat outfit, which held the once high and mighty University of Washington1 to a two-point victory, pulled every trick they had and seemingly all of them worked. Though holding the eastern outfit for a few minutes in the first half the Viking defense slowly went to pieces and the Wildcats scored at will. The Vikings meet the Ellensburg outfit here in Bellingham, February 10. Lack Confidence In the fracas with the Yakima Junior College the Vikings, a tired, unhappy bunch, dropped a close 'game 28-27. The hard game the night before showed plainly on the Vikings and they were unable to cope with the stronger, fresher Junior College outfit. There is no doubt in the minds of the players and coaches but that the local squad will down this outfit when they play a return game with the Normal quintet in Bellingham, February 16. Vikings Lead In the final set-to of the series in the desert country, the Bellingham squad dropped their second Tri-Normal contest to Cheney 39- 25. Three games in four days was too much for the small Viking squad and they weakened under a determined offensive attack by the Savages to lose out in the final twelve minutes of play. The Vikings led at half time and with twelve minutes to play the score was tied at twenty-all. The local squad tangles with the Cheney outfit here next Wednesday evening, February 3. Undoubtedly the Vikings will give the Savages a much stronger battle in their second game of the season and have an excellent chance to upset the eastern bunch. Coach "Pop" Gunn Is Very Optimistic As Ball Season Nears ....Well, that's all the dirt for this week, fans, and let's wish the Blue and White hoopsmen lots of luck when they tangle with the C. P. S. tomorrow night at the Loggers' camp in Tacoma. _—o o "Do Unto Others As-" (Sportsitorial) Many favorable reports came back from Cheney when the Viking hoopsters returned from their eastern basketball jaunt. The Viking squad was received and cared for as honored guests from the time of their arrival until the time of their departure. They were met at their hotel by members of the Savage team and taken on a trip around the campus. When the teams tangled that evening the Vikings were very conscious of the unified cheering of the Cheney fans. Every Cheney student was there in a group, supporting their team and finding time to applaud the efforts of the Blue and White. After the game; cars waited at the dressing room to transport the Vikings to their train. Wednesday we will do well to return the courtesies of the eastern PPPPP

By the way, we hope that you will notice the increased maturity of this- column'. We feel that from today on we can offer our readers some thing really beneficial and pertinent. Our responsibility has been enlarged, another milestone of bur life has been attained, we are , in the act of taking our place in the great ranks of adult citizens, we have reached our legal majority. In other and more simple words, today we are twenty-one, and are fishing" for cohgrats. Honestly, though we feel terribly grown-up. We never actually thought that we could do it, so I guess we have a right to sort of feel plenty puffed up. Gee, 'just wait till you are twenty-one, and then you will be able to see for ' yourself how purely adult you will feel * * * ; Did you see- the play the other night? It really was an ambitious production for amateur actors, but there was certainly nothing amateurish about the. actors nor the directing. The tough spots that are to be expected in most school pro- • ductions were either unnoticeable or simply non-existent. The Bellingham State Normal school is fortunate in having a real artist in Victor H. Hoppe as its dramatic director. We were reading an article on reporters in a current magazine a short time ago which was written by a reporter. For the benefit of the faculty, we will tell you a little bit of what is'said—and quote a little bit more'. He said that people who were apt to be interviewed should • remember two things. First of all, they should carefully consider whether they want to be interviewed or not. If not, or even if in doubt, "don't let him get near you. Send out word that you are in Brazil, or have smallpox, or something equally conclusive"... ---.•• * Then the .second.point was, if you want to see the reporter—and this is particularly for the faculty —to see immediately that he has your name spelled .correctly... The author., of. the., article., suggests, '•Write it out for him, preferably on his shirt front.^ Tnere are; * gt;? course, a few reporters in the business who do not depend on their own remarkable gift for transcrib- ' ing phonetics on paper correctly, but request the owner to spell his . name; such lads,. however, are all too few". Maybe I shouldn't have given out • ail thai information; because of all the be ingthe "cubs'^ up; in the; office do about interviewing the faculty. You know, to hear them talk, one would really think that the dear teachers'weren't a bit 'flattered to be interviewed and get their names in the paper. '~ii is a tragedy to a reporter on his first important interview to be told all . about the'cute sayings of the little .grandson of the interviewee, but gt; consider the anguish of Normal teachers who must weekly rack their brains in order t opump news, so-called, into the embarrassed youth on whose beat he is and who in-eWtebly asks the , most suggestive £ndi leading: fcuestiim /; of "Ya got ihy news for the Viking this week? v and confining tiie rest of his germinating' conversation to "Thank 'ya; I'llbei arwnd next week fit this time", /ai lt; the «na of the intenftew. %l: Have you begun to really believe 0js'propaganda 0 ' * ' • ' ' ' ' J ;VJ)^5^U: ' ' - ' • -« •'-'^ ?! gt;- gt;'••»*••••! , !.'-...':..-..•-•..-. f.-M ,: Good Crowds See "The Pigeon" This Week Galsworthy's Play Proves Most Successful Given Here in f Many Quarters—Hoppe and McDonald Effective. Of interest to Normal students this week was the Galsworthy play, "The Pigeon", which was presented in the auditorium by the Drama club Wednesday and Thursday evenings. With a cast composed mainiy of experienced players, the drama, which was directed by Victor H. Hoppe, was declared to be one of the finest that has been presented here in several years. Appearing for the first time in several quarters, Mr. Hoppe returned to the stage himself to carry; the role of Weliwyn, around whom the play centers. Mr. Hoppe's interpretation of the sympathetic and generous, if not too kind-hearted artist was outstanding, while Miss Mary MacDonald, as Guiners Megan, one of the world's vagabonds who found a home under Weliwyn's roof portrayed the flower seller of the streets in a manner which warrants her appearance in future productions. The other lead of Fer-rand, an alien, was ably taken by Charles Gerrold, who made it quite effective with his French gestures and enunciation. Louis Griffin appeared again in a Normal play, this time as Anne, the rather spoiled and selfish daughter of Weliwyn. Charles Dewey, as Timpson, the drunken but likeable cab man, gave zest to the play. John Rajola, as Edward Bertley; Lyle Summers, as Alfred Calway, and Ray Bright; as Sir Thomas Hoxton, furnished plenty of controversy regarding what should be done with the three vagabonds, Guinevere Megan, Ferrand, and Timpson. Frank Franz, as a police constable; Warren Boynton, as the First- Humble-Man, and Haddox, as the Second-Humble-Man; Alexander Kuzmoski as a boy, and Joe Harris, as Rory Megan, while minor characters, gave convincing performances. Mr. Joe Harris was stage manager for the play. A very good turnout of Normal students, faculty and townspople enjoyed the two evenings'performances. : _ o : Augusta Pragst Leaving For Visit in Russia :: A recent letter from Miss Augusta Pragst; received by Miss Delia L. Victoria Rick Dome of Parliament Buildin; While being one of the most western settlements on the North American continent, Victoria, the rather famous Capital City of British Columbia, is not in any sense a child of the West. Its existence was not due to the westward tide of civilization as was the. case with Winnipeg, Calgary, or Vancouver City. Victoria had its birth in a Hudson's Bay Company's fort which was built in 1843, the city's subsequent growth being due to the choice of Esquimalt Harbour as the naval base of the Pacific Squadron of the British fleet, and later fa 185S to the fact that Victoria was the port at which miners from California, Australia, and many other countries landed on their way to the gold fields of the Cariboo. The visitor to Victoria is immediately charmed with his first glimpse of the island capital. Beyond the graceful sweep of bay and esplanade stretch lawns and terraces up to the stately Parliament buildings; within a stone's throw lies Beacon Hill Park, 154 acres in extent, its south side washed by the Straits of Juan de Fuca. Wonderful seascapes and views of the eternally snow-clad Olympics may be obtained from the cliffs and beaches. In the heart of the city is the all-glass Crystal Garden, housing a warm sea-water swimming tank 150 feet in length, peacock promenades, concert auditorium, gymnasiums, palm gardens, and picture galleries. On the outskirts of Victoria at Esquimalt are the old Naval station and the new Dominion government drydock, the second largest on the continent. This giant basin, hewn out of the living rock, cost approximately $6,000,- 000, and is 1,150 feet long. The dock will take any ship afloat. M. Butchart's sunken gardens are today world-famous. The site of these gardens, is a large cement quary. To this yawning chasm were brought countless loads of rich black loam, an artificial lake was made, trees planted, lawns laid out, shrubs of all kinds distributed, and clambering vines and rock plants set in place. Besides the sunken gardens with their blossom-covered walls a hundred feet high and the lake into which many waterfalls fling their silver spray, there are 16 acres of gardens with their heavily hung pergolas; strtches of velvet lawn bordered with flowers of every description. The gadens, while private property, are, through the kindness of Mr. and Mrs. Buchart, open to the public every day of the week. . r The Dominion government Astrophysical Observatory, six miles from the city,' contains the second largest telescope in the world. The total weight of the moving parts is about 45 tons, yet so beautifully is the mechanism constructed that it can be readily moved by hand if desired. The instrument is much larger than the, telescope of any other national observatory. „ iWB„K, w. , .. Golf is played all the year round hi Victoria.

Ninenty-nine per cent of the people enrolled this summer have been crying for the trip, and through the good nature of the faculty and committee, all of the boys and girls ' attending the institution will be turned out from their studies to bask about the decks of the big boat, and to spend their time roaming the streets of the quaint English city of Victoria. We don't mind quoting ourselves in this, that "this trip will be something of a classic in summer sport, the nth degree in good clean fun, and anyone who is not aboard the boat will be missing an important chapter in his, or her^young life". We've been cruising, these Islands all summer, in row boats, motor boats, and steam boats, and we enjoy it, even if the quarters are narrow and the decks small. And the prospect of spending a day on a trip to . Vancouver Island, on the spacious decks of the Indianapolis, and in the company of six or seven hundred of our friends, is particularly pleading. Well see you in Victoria! T H E DE^UNKERS MEET One.Act Play 1 Dramatis Personate: First, Second, Third, and Fourth Debunker. Time: This week.

The trip was made in a boat owned and operated by Clarence Locke, former Normal school student. The party left from the P. A. F. dock about noon and after an hour of rather rough sailing, arrived at the island. As soon as camp was made the members set put exploring the island and the various beaches.--The party reported that the water was not cold and that swimming was ; The high, light of the trip^was the /heroic work of Bill Kelly v^and Aubrey Luridborg. it is "a* fish story and goes something like this.

As soon as the masculine heroes were well drilled 'in trie technique of defensive fighting it was decided to give the aforesaid shark the fight of its life. Mr. Lundborg was chosen head of the army and after giving explicit directions as to what to. do and what not to do he at once picked up a stone, and with the strength of a Goliath hurled, it at the shark, killing it at oiice, much to the! em-: barassment of . t he other members] who did not have a chance to show theirs bravery/; andmilitary skill The shark was taken from the water and tied to the erjid of the boat.: When- the party; broke up and;;be^ gan their homeward journey it was discovered- that the weight' of the shark retarded the process of the boat tb/such an extent that it was cast/ashore.

Blankenship, on the mound for the locals, made quick work of the first; three men facing him in the opening1 stanza. Auerenheimer fanned, Johnson was put out. at first on an infield bobble, and Anderson flied out to Church. In their half of the inning the Vikings accounted for one hit but Putnam, doing the hurling for the University boys, tightened up and fanned the last two men to face him. . _- - Things moved along until the first of the third inning, when the Seattle team found the feeling .of crossing home'plate. Dishnow and Cole were put out at first, but here, Putnam, feeling the urge- to win his own game singled. Auerenheimer following^ doubled to left field fence, scoring Putnam. On the next play- Swanson^ retired to a side with a put out on throw from right edges. The fourth" went scoreless but again, in the fifth, the "big school" boys were able to''push across runs. After three runs had been piled up Pop Gimn thought it about time'to do some changing. The change sent Lundberg to the mound, Blankenship to left field for Church, and Franz to second for Lundberg. Before the battle dust had settled in this inning, three more tallies were accounted for. One marker was scored in the sixth on several errors, one in the seventh on a hit and some more errors and the fatal eighth registered four more on three" hits and a flock of bungles. At the start of the ninth the Normal subs were given a chance to limber up ..their arms when nearly a new team took the field. Lund-, berg retired the side and then the home boys came to bat for the last time. Avengance was the only sign on faces. Korsborn, the gt; first up, fouled out to third base. On the next play. Blankenship" hit a high foul just outside, of the third base line. . Both the catcher and third baseman: made for' it. As both were watching only the . ball a crash seemed inevitable—it came. Norman, the third sacker, banged his head against Dobson, the catcher^ and down went the infielder. It took a few seconds to revive him, but when he arose he knew something had struck him. After resuming the play Blankenship was put out at first, Johnston made a long hit to" centerfield. Lundberg poked out an infield bouncer and Johnston was forced at second fending the game. Prom the score one might get the idea of a severe drubbing but, according to hits, the Normal team was hot so badly outplayed^ The Seattle bunch, was able, to collect ten safe hits while' the locals accounted for seven in their favor. _ Several faces on the University team were familiar to the spectators as being former students of the Normal. Jack Schneider, Earl Jewell, and Gussy Okerlund were all running around the diamond for blue and white at one time or another in the past. • .

To be eliminated entirely from the tournament is, to lose two matches. In the first round that was to be played by August 8, Schmidt won from Hess by a forr felt and defeated Kreshler in the second round of match play with a score of 86 to 79. i Koski won from Kreugel and Royston won from Clay. This manner of playing off the matches is a very fair, one as the wihrTers iri each round play winners and the losers play the losers. There is a movement started to settle for once and for all the supremacy of one girl above all the rest in the good sport of tennis by a process of the survival of the fitest. In the first round of this struggle to show superiority, Mc- Kelvey plays Davis, Johnson plays Hess, Lang plays McNeill, Gable plays Taylor, and Jolianson drew a bye. So far the only match that have bene played. Elizabeth Gable won from Betty Taylor 6-0, 6-3. By next week this cohtrovesy about the best player in school should be settled. This is a fair method because each person has to lose two matches before being eliminated entirely. —— -o " Annie Hicklin from the U. of W., a former student of this institution, was the guest of Edythe Matson and Elvera Abrahamson this week-end. 'Mid the rousing cheers of the one male rooter and combination scprekeeper, and in the hot sun, blazing down on Waldo Field about' 4:00 o'clock Monday afternoon, the team of Edens Hall beat the Rinkey-dinks with a score of 5 to 3. Johnson and Hess, as the battery for Edens Hall, were outstanding players on their team. Swick and Johnson made scores for the Rinkey-dinks. These games are/really not so hard to watch. If you are afraid for your complexion you can always bring a parasol or, better yet, you ian enjoy a comfortable chair in the Industrial Arts building.

Miss Fogerty is the principal of the largest school of speech training in the British Empire, and is entirely responsible for , the high standing which the Speech arts have achieved in,England. It is to her that the United States is indebted for the fact that the University of London has at last consented to give university recognition to Speech Training and Dramatic Art, a decision of far-reaching importance in our most conservative country. Miss Fogerty has devoted many years to the treatment of speech defects, and some twenty years ago the first hospital clinic for the treatment of speech defects was instituted under her supervision. She is at present director of the St. Thomas Hospital Clinic for Speech Defects in London. Miss Fogerty is speaking in America on Greek and Shakespearian Drama, which is the subject of lectures which she has given before universities in the Middle West and on the Western Coast.

The questions now before the faculty boards, not only here J but in most United Slates institu-tions, are: Shall we adopt the European systemfdf testing? Shall we do away j with our periodical objective testing and give a general "qual- ;: ification test" at t he end of the two- -year.cdurse here? / Ij-Thisi,method of testing has its ad- . vantages as well as i ts ;disadvan-tages. It has one good point in that i t would eliminate dry, uninteresting, academic profs in this w a y - students would simply refuse to a t tend classes and a professor sans class is nil. Furthermore, if used in this institution, there would probably be a m o i e select group of teachers graduated, and from the economic and intellectual, standpoints i t would have its advantages. Then, too, under our present system, "American education is the most non-intellectual education there is." And if .the new system were to become a part of our educational program, students would use their spare moments to extend their • courses that they might be well prepared for the coming final examination. Like everything else, this, system has its drawbacks. As in Europe, the "suicide list" (including those who live •via, horror and anticipation of the coming test and those who have failed) would increase. As a whole,, statistics show that there is a decided lack of - self-control among present-day American students, so perhaps we are not ready for this type- of exam yet. I t has been rumored,; however, that President Fisher is in favor of adopting this method. —W.S.N.S.— . ' Happinessr—who has it? ^The newspapers scream out suicides,' divorces, murders, law suits, gang wars--bh,, where is our peace? Why do people deliberately kill themselves when they are young ? Just because things are dark in the present is no reason they will stay that way. We can't read the future, but isn't there hope? Just around the corner may be sunshine.

Mr. Ford is secretary-treasurer of the organization, to which belong the managers of co-operative book stores of sixteen of the leading colleges in the West. They meet each year at a convention and discuss the problems involved in running a college book store. Mr. Oscar Williams of Washington State College has served during the past year as president of the organization. Buying Discussed The main work of the convention this year will be to discuss group buying. This has been tried to a certain extent in the past and found to be very satisfactory. Another thing that is done is to conduct a second hand book exchange among the colleges in an effort to dispose of books no longer in use a t one school. .Dead books is one of the greatest loss that book stores have, and for. that reason at many colleges no books can be turned in and only new. .books ;are handled at the book store! The convention sent a delegate to the East last year to investigate the policy of other co-operative book stores. His . report ' sho.wed that •Western co-ops were run on similar A supplement to the yearly student directory will be off the press and ready for distribution this afternoon, according to Sam Ford of the Student.Co-op. The. supplement will contain the names of'all the students who have entered this quarter and t he changes since the directory was published in the fall. This year the directory was published by the Co-operative Book Store and distributed free of charge to each student. Any student who did not get his director during t he Fall quarter may get it now, according to the management of t he Coop. o FISHER TO SPEAK AT SCHOOL MEET TO ATTEND STATE SCHOOL DIRECTORS' CONVENTION.

This statement being based on the numerous praises sounded for the recent artist who appeared and the general atmosphere of close attention being paid. In the experience of the writer, the attitude in general that,was taken during the meeting period was worse last quarter than at any. other time. What is more, it didn't seem to improve any as the weeks wore away. Which brings us as a matter of time to the above statement. Perhaps several things have worked together to make this situation go for the better understanding of style presented, another working of the school as a whole, and more of a demand for the high type okmusic in assemblies. We will not attempt to deal in the ever burning question as to the justice of the students being compelled to attend said concerts, but as long as'that ruling exists we are all for the appreciation lectures being offered by the Music department. Surprisingly, many of the ardent anti-classical music contingent look with favor on these lectures as something of value to them. T W E N T Y - F I V E P E R C E NT A certain Washingtonian, Edward B. Rhodes, advocates that the football receipts of the University of Washington and the Washington State college should be taxed a quarter of their total for the benefit of education within the state. This advice being made on account of the alleged commerciality of the sport. We are curious. How much more of the tax funds would be needed for campus improvements and upkeep at these two schools if they were "charged" that per cent? Again, who would pay for deficits after 25 per cent had been grabbed? Their expenses are high. ,: P ODDS S H I F T ED Though it is expected and taken for granted that the women do and will outnumber the men of the school gathered at Rec hour, we claim that odds will shift. Shortly after the dancing had started at the last evening Rec hour, the census showed the score at over twenty to three in favor of the men. Another count was taken following the completion of over a fourth of the dance and the men still held heavy odds in numbers. Quite an unusual situation here at Normal, but one that is easy to explain— just another case of the ladies unable to be on time. • Modern day "lynching" comes into vogue in a neighboring state when all the oleomargarine and similar products were seized and burned by the farmers. The product was replaced with fresh creamery butter. Don't call but the militia; adopt;the Oxford mode of studying during their vacations.

A 15-year-old girl suffering from infantile paralysis is reported "doing nicely" after the injection of "parrot's blood." Quite by accident the transfusion was made. "Long distance, please."

He was almost overwhelmed by the torrent of rain that poured in, drowning the cat and shoving him down for t he second time. J. Appleton spoke whimsically from his sick-bed to ye cubbe r e - portre.

The "''propolition" will be put before the Board of Control and it's up to, them whether we have or do not have a golf team. SAVAGES PRESENT HEAVT^ODDS '• FOR CARVERITES^ VIKINGS HANDICAPPED, ^ R e p o r t s from the Ellensburg school paper show that they are in favor of making golf a minor sport. Leo Nicholson,' Ellensburg coach, is strong for the golf sport. During the Vikings' Eastern Washington basketball trip, Sam Carver and Nicholson talked of having a golf match between the two schools. If everything pans out all right at home here, a. match will be played with an Ellensburg team before the Tri-Normal track meet at Ellensburg some time near May 23. Cheney would like to make a Tri- Normar affair of it, but is handicapped by not having a golf course handy. It's almost time to start Umber' ing up the horseshoe pitching arm and get ready for the barnyard golf tournament. I know, it is rather early, but the more practice you get the better game you 11 be playing when tournament time rolls around. With better weather coming right along there should be suite a clanging of horseshoes heard from out on the courts. If you Want to play, just go into Sam Carvers office and ask to use the shoes. Al Brown, giant center of the Jayvees, ran square into Old Man Hard Luck during the P. S. P. L. game and broke two bones arid pulled some muscles in his foot. This'injury will keep Brown out of basketball for the rest of the season. The Jayvees will feel the loss of Brown because of his ability to always get the tip-off and his 10 to 20 points per game. Not being too pessimistic, the writer predicts a 2-to-l victory for the U. of W. Frosh over the Vikings tonight, and a win for Carver's men over C. P. S. on Saturday night. That 2 to 1 victory may not be quite strong enough. Maybe 2%-torl will be closer. Okeh? I t won't be long now before the fellows will be out throwing the pill around. This year a conference baseball schedule will be drawn up between the three Normals. Bellingham has a fair pre-season team and will be out to capture the Tri-Normal baseball title, having fallen by the wayside in football and basketball. Inspired basketball alone can win for the; Vikings' against Cheney when they play their second game oyer at the Whatcom gym next Wednesday night. Coach Carver's men will go into the game fighting grimly, but against odds. Cheney has beaten them once and now "Old Man Sickness" has taken his toll from the Bellingham team. • Adversity may work as a stimulant for the Vikings. The entire team realizes what it is up against. The players will have to be doggedly determind and deadly accurate if they are to win. The entire team is ailing. Skot-heim is in bed with the flue. Ke will not be able to be in a suit. Abbott is still out of school with a severe cold. Sherman and Rork have bad colds. Dixon is not in tipJtop shape yet. Thorsen is in fine shape but he knocks wood as he reports his condition. Carver coached teams have risen up to the heights in the past. This helm is in bed with the flu. He year's team will have to prove itself. I t may come into its own in this game against Cheny. The Jayvees play Mount Vernon Junior College in the opener. This first game is slated for 7:15, with the Savage-Viking game starting at 8 o'clock. o "B" LEAGUERS FROM P. S. P. TAKE CONTEST L., 29-12. Featuring a tight defense, the Jayvees beat the Puget Sound Power Light team Friday, night by the score of 29 to 12. Comfort was the shiner for the Jayvees, getting 11 points and covering his men like a blanket. Tyler, of the Light team, looked good with 7 points. Al Brown broke a small bone in his foot in the last minute of play. He will be out for the rest of the season. Line-ups: Jayvees (29) (12) P. S. P. L. Comfort (11) F .-- Doty Hayes ...F :..

Saturday was the best day for skiing as on Sunday there was.a terrific blizzard and the skiers were forced to quit after one-half hour at' t h e sport. The snow was heavy because of rain on Saturday night and it stuck to the bottom of the skiis making it hard for one to guide himself. After the day's skiing was over there was a forty-five minute walk back to the cabins where the teachers took a hand at cooking. The road up to t he Meadows was in very bad shape and the Ski club members had.to hike from.Bagley.

XXXVI—NO. 23 WESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGE OF EDUCATION, BELLINGHAM, WASHINGTON Friday, March 19, 1937 Live •*: And ^ Learn .By Don Gooding- Greetings, salutations, felicitations, approbations! Every Saturday a special class for overly ambitious football gladiators is conducted under the tender auspices of George Dack and troupe aye, and 'tis a marvelous group, these byes. From the grapevine comes a report that they are holding their own in the desperate race with the impressarios of the local Federalist team, sometimes known as the Wiggly-Piggly Auctioneers. Fritz Chorvat, captain, is the fair-haired lad upon whom the team's destinies depend, and, says Coach Dack, bids strong to set up an all-time endurance record for leaning on a six-foot broom. You can't blame them, though, after working so hard all football season. Ads sure get results. More people should advertise in the Viking. Pipe the successful buying attitude created by this morsel of salesmanship, as relayed by the Herald-Tribune, New York: Tumbledown house on hilltop for sale in Conn. Two miles from nowhere. No babbling brook. Extensive grounds for pushing lawn mower. Bad golf, shooting, fishing, etc. Twelve acres inclosed by horse fence, adjoining insane asylum. Dump near house with skunks, rabbits and field mice jattKng around. Approximately 30 apple trees, sans apples. General Electric oil burner. Domestic problems terrible. Price $29,000. A fellow by the name of X 125, a fourth cousin to MADAME X, wrote the thing. » * * * About three days later, he got an answer that rambled thusly: Mr. X135. DEAR SIR: Referring to your tumbledown house" ad. Having always disliked the country, I find the detailed description of your property irresistible. One of my reasons for disliking the country is a deep-rooted aversion to week-end guests . . . Obviously this problem would be entirely eliminated. I should like to inspect your property at my convenience, when you can assure me that the skunks will be there, that you will be out. . . (Signed) Y35 (no cousin to nothing.) Saaay, can that be sarcasm? Or connivery? * * * * * In 1921, fate or something overtook the old Knickerbocker Theatre of Washington, D. C, and its roof fell through without a bit of Warning, killed about 100 spectators, and caused a mighty hullaballoo. Immediately following the disaster, the architect who constructed the palatial hall, saw fit to commit suicide. Bad luck still pursued, and last week another chapter was written as the former owner also fell morose and abruptly concluded his mortal troubles. What comes next . . . ? Mr. Ripley, take your spooks and scram! * * * * * London bridge fell down, but this bridge did a lot better than that. A couple of you-show-me boys from Missouri, not having any faith at all in the certainty of WPA bridge-building projects, hauled off ' one night and moved one entire bridge three miles, put it across some gorge they thought it decorated more nicely, and then rested on their laurels. However, some alert guardian of the law detected the loss and hounded the trail until he had captured the villains of the viaduct. "Get your bridge work done here" would be a good epitaph for these industrious chaps; anyhow (here comes the inevitable) they were smart enough to uncross their bridges before they come to 'em. * * * * * Well, they gave brother FPA (Franklin Pierce Adams), famous New York columnist, the gate last week . . . and it looks as if the LLL calumnist is going out the door along with him. FPA's boss took his beloved Conning Tower away from him and locked it up. We'll just toss the Live and Learn scribe out the window and let Bjgo at that. ' —Ed. -•' '•••" Viking Receives Second Place Returning to the rank of winner after a year's absence from competition, the Northwest Viking, with Joan Hoppe as fall quarter editor, has received second place among schools of education papers of the United States, according to word received from the Columbia Scholastic Press association, New York. Forty-three papers in this field were rated, according to the New York Herald-Tribune of March 12. Detailed criticism is expected early next quarter showing the Viking's virtues and shortcomings. All-American and first class rating in National Scholastic and Columbia Press association competitions of 1934-35 were the last previous ratings to be received, when Julius Domblut, now teaching at Alderwood Manor, was the honored editor. 'Much Ado' Cast Praised Shakespearean Drama Enoyed By Students; Theatre Guild Likes Guest Performance By Frances Pelegren Shakespeare had come and gone, but there still remained a chance that some impression, good or bad, had been made. Follow the triumphant .performance of the cast at the Theatre Guild playhouse, a careful survey was made to determine the exact position of the play in the minds of the audience MR. FRANK BURNET:.. "The Theater Guild appreciated the guest play from the College this year, and always expects something exceptional when under the able direction of Victor Hoppe. The graveyard scene was unusually well done and the leading feminine roles, the frair, and policemen were portrayed excellently." MR. KD3BE: "The play as a whole was finely done. The cast and stage settings were very good. I considered it much superior to ordinary amateur performances. There was real artistry shown in the rendition of many of the parts." MISS CHURCH: "Shakespeare has always been delightful to me and I enjoyed this particular play very much. The costuming was lovely, and the cast gave a splendid interpretation." MISS BEVER: "I felt that the cast was getting just as much enjoyment out of the play as I was The work of Katheryn Hatch and Al Potter was extremely well done I enjoyed it a lot." MARIAN McCULLOUGH: "I thought it was very well done. It was fun to see a costume play for a change, and, particularly a Shakespearian production." DR. HICKS: "Much Ado was well staged, acted, and directed. The production as a whole was a great credit to amateur Shakespeareans. Campus School To Have Junior High Discussion Made at Wednesday Meeting; Regular Faculty Members Will Act Special Help Offered Beginning September, 1937, the Western Washington College of Education will add a ninth grade to the campus school, creating a Junior High school. This action was taken by the Board of Trustees of this school at a meeting held on last Wednesday afternoon. There will be three room teachers, one each for English, Mathematics, and Social studies. Regular members of the college faculty will act as special teachers in Music, Art, Home Economics, Industrial Arts, Physical Education, Science, and Foreign languages. This will offer the boys and girls all the advantages of a good modern Junior High school. The work thus will be much more departmentalized than could have been possible in the past, thus making available much better facilities for observation and demonstration for the technique plasses. Dean Now Registrar The Board of Trustees also took action to change the name of the position of the Dean of the School to that of Registrar. Most colleges have this position and though WWC has been without this name officially, the Dean of the School has been in the capacity and has been doing the work of a registrar. This department is no longer a record keeping office for student and faculty schedules, etc., but is active in the work of personnel and guidance work. It also offers service in the placement of students who are not preparing for teaching. The position of Registrar, as conceived today, is one of considerable standing in higher institutions. o Architect To Address Art Department After Vacation Angel's Report Accepted by Board; Nelson New Viking Manager Varied Programs Planned For Spring Quarter Fisher To Talk on New Orleans Trip at First Assembly; Albers Pattigan Featured "The Art department has invited Mr. Willcox, a representative archP tect instructor from the Carnegie sessions in Eugene, Oregon, to give a talk on March 31, at 1:00 o'clock," stated Miss Hazel Breakey, of the Art department. Everyone is invited to attend. The American Institute of Architects Committee on Education, which is responsible for the Carnegie sessions at Oregon, through the benefaction of the Carnegie Foundation, has asked Mr. Willcox to visit as many institutions as possible, the instructors of which have been en- ! rolled in the Carnegie sessions at ! Oregon, and address the classes or ! student bodies. World Affairs Observer Talks Before Delegates in Victoria; Peace Conference Pronounced Success Assemblies for the spring quarter of 1937 will be varied and colorful. Lectures dominate the schedule. There will be twelve lectures and three musicals and one monologue. President Fisher will open the assembly schedule with a talk on his trip to New Orleans on March 30. Christine Albers and Marguerite Pattigan, both local people, Albers being a former student and graduate of WWC, will present a recital April 9. Among the many world travelers who will lecture on the different countries they have visited will be Dr. William M. Landeen, who is an acknowledged authority on present day Germany and her problems. A differ-ent type lecture will be given by Major James Sawders who travels exclusively in the two Americas. He tells of the people in the country and doesn't put so much emphasis on political development. Frances Homer, a monologist, will present an unusual program in the latter part of April. She writes her own plays and dramatizes them. Also, she does a series of characterization of people whom one meets in everyday life. Chief Yowlache, an Indian from the Yakima tribe of the Pacific Northwest, will .present a musical program,. Yowlache being a bass-baritone. A complete program will be published in the Viking next quarter. o All Klipsun Pictures Completed On Schedule "With pictures of the band, orchestra, Valkyrie club, intramural champs and free-shot winner taken during the last two weeks, the Klipsun photographic schedule for the quarter is completed. However, since there is still much work to be done, staff members will be especially busy the first two weeks of spring quarter," reports Margaret Thon, editor of WWC's 1937 annual. Club presidents are again reminded that a $5.00 fee is charged for club pictures. Arrangements for pictures should be made with busi ness manager Helen Hostetter early next quarter. Staff photography editor, Mickey Dickinson has been scouting the campus for candid shots and pictures for section pages. Students still have six weeks to turn in collegiate snaps for the snapshot section. — o Paper Named Nelson Winner With The Western Viking The Western Viking, a name submitted by Lloyd Nelson, will replace The Northwest Viking as the name of the official school paper of WWCE.

The Viking recently conducted a contest with the avowed purpose of changing the name of the paper. Numerous reasons were given why the name should be changed—the name was getting old, it had no literary significance, it embraced no journalistic principles, it did not correspond to the new school name. So the Viking sponsored a contest. Response to the contest was gratifying. Of course a prize was offered, but the prize was more of recognition than of monetary value. Many names were submitted and all were given due thought. Actual press proofs were taken of the outstanding names and criticisms were made by many people. These names were given tests of every device and yet none proved outstanding. None would fit. None would be satisfactory. From all the 100 odd names submitted, none could take the place of the Viking! And none will! The Viking it shall remain, the only change being that die prefix will now be "Western," corresponding to the name of the school. So tradition triumphs over change. Perhaps the tradition has become an institution and as such, cannot be changed. So it would seem. To those whose interest made the contest, many thanks. To Lloyd Nelson, who suggested the "Western Viking," congratulations, and that gag about taking the candy home to.mother is a little threadbare.

To Whom it May Concern: This school, as a college, as has been said by many of its pupils, DOES NOT have a graduation exercize which upholds its prestige and standing. Most of the high school exercises are on a higher level and more fitting than the exercises in this school. It seems to us that a college should have caps and gowns for all graduating students. Many have said that because they are here when they graduate they attend the exercises but would just as soon leave school as soon as exams are over and receive their diplomas at home. The graduation as a whole leaves nothing with you nor does it make for anything but the quick forgetting of it. When we need is an exercise befitting the rank of a three or four year college. It has been argued that black caps and govms can't be used by the three-year graduates. Well, we think any color cap and gown would be better than the effect made by the apparel worn thus far at graduation. H. and P. M.

WHATCOM COUNTY DAIRYMEN'S ASSOCIATION PHONE 314 Of interest to WWC students is the production of "The Rock", presented first last Sunday and to be given again on Sunday evening, March 21, by members of the Garden Street Methodist Church Division of Drama, in the church auditorium. Among those listed in the cast are the following WWC students, Betty Swisher, Louise Bryson, Eugene Olmsted, Donald Ross and Art Wilkinson. Neil Dow and Virgina George, former Vikings, are also cast in the drama. The theme of the drama deals with the character development of the disciple, Simon Peter, from the time, when as an unlearned fisher-boy he began to follow the Master, to the period following the crucifixion. Reverend E. A. Wolfe, pastor of the church, is cast in the title role. Complete lighting, stage and musical effects enhance the beauty of the production which was presented to a packed auditorium last week. Directed by Mrs. G. P. Stoaks, the play begins at 7:30 p. m., and is preceded by a short organ recital by Lowe Bartruff. The public is invited. To help the child learn to adjust himself to group life, become independent, and learn to respect the rights of others, are some of the first objectives for which the kindergarten teacher works, according to Miss Pricilla Kinsman, kinde-garten teacher in the Training school. These results are best achieved in the play and in the work periods. "In teaching in the kindergarten, the object is not primarily to impart knowledge, but to give the child a wealth of experiences which will equip him to meet new situations," Miss Kinsman explains. Animals Are Made The children work in clay, making such objects as animals, bowls, ink-stands, and whatever else they wish. These are then painted in tempera paints and lacquered by the child. They also make large water-color paintings, crayola drawings, and do wood work and block building. At first the child draws a picture, or several pictures in a morning, and names them after he has painted them. Later he learns to plan his work before he executes it, sometimes spending several mornings in getting the desired results, Miss Kinsman noted. Many of the objects made in wood represent activity sustained over a much longer period of time. Children Work With Wood Ships of various kinds, a seaplane and a streamlined train are examples of some of the work done in wood. The child is left free to carry out his own ideas, with suggestions and aid on the more difficult parts by the teachers. In the discussion following the work period, the children have learned a great deal about the different types of ships, planes, and trains. In these ways confidence and self-reliance are fostered and the child is given an ever-widening field of interest. Other activities which are important in the kindergarten are literature, which includes listening to poems and stories; singing; rhythms and games; and sharing experiences, in which the children tell their interesting outside experiences to the others in the group. o Miller Speaks on Mann At Club- Banquet Feminine Half of Big 12 Enjoy Swimming; Other Queries Remain Unanswered Mount Baker Scene of Winter Carnival; Rae Snyder, Queen King Winter reigns supreme, at least at Mount Baker, where last Sunday attractive Rae Snyder was crowned queen of the winter ski carnival.

I?37 Norman Bright Gomes Back Former Student Now Holds 5 0 0 0 Meter Record; Races Cunningham Next Week By Jack Carver Normal Bright, the California school teacher and internationally, famous track star who acquired his higher knowledge at WWC, is a versatile man when it comes to using his legs. He has won victories in the half-mile, mile, two-mile, and holds the national record for 5000 meters. Bellingham will have a chance to view this great runner next Thursday afternoon, March 25, when he takes a practice workout on the WWC track between races in Spokane and Portland. In Portland, Bright will race the mile with Glenn Cunningham, holder of the world's record for that event. Bright Is Chehalis Boy Norman is one or eight children in the Bright family. Six of them attended WWC, but only four graduated. After graduating from Chehalis high, Norman enrolled in WWC in 1928 for two years. In 1930 he taught at Pearson, Washington. But when 1931 rolled around, Bright came back to WWC to graduate. During his sojourn here he was induced by Coach Sam Carver to turn out for track. Although he had never run before, his first time trial was good, 4:44. An interesting race was run by Norman in 1931 in the U.W. Frosh meet. With the Vikings needing but one point to win, Bright was inserted to win a third place in the half mile. He had just finished the mile run but he thought he could beat the Frosh's 'great half miler. Norman ran all competitors into the cinders, winning by ten yards. He said after the victory, "I hated to beat Carboneau and Eaga'n (the Viking runners), but I just couldn't let that Frosh man win." Tri-Normal Mile Broken Bright won the Tri-Normal mile all three years he competed, setting a new record his third year of 4:32.8. This record still stands. After graduating from WWC he went to Stanford, but being ineligible for track, he ran for the San Francisco Olympic club, making the mile in 4:19. gt; The past three years,,have.been busy ones for the Sunnyvale high school English professor. Besides teaching, he has competed in many races here and abroad. Last winter at Madison Square Garden in New York, Bright took third place in a two-mile run which found the first four men all bettering the existing record. His opponents were Don Lash and Deckard of Indiana, and Wayne Rideout of Texas. Norm Sets New Record The following week, while defending his 5000 meter title, Norman hung up a new record of 14:- 45.8. The old time was 15 minutes flat. During the summer of 1935 Norman made a tour of Europe. While in Italy he beat Luigi Beccali, the 1932 Olympic champ, in the 1500 run. The reason for the former WWC flash not running in the Olympic Games last year was because of blistered feet acquired during the final heats. A big crowd is expected to welcome the 27-year-old runner back 'home'. Sport News SOUKUP, Editor SOUKIE SAYS Will Visit Here Spring is here. Spring, the season in which the Bellingham Vikings emerge from the underdog position to the ranks of the favorite. The Norse will be defending two titles this year, tennis and golf. Sam Carver reports nearly the same golf team at last year plus the additional strength of Jeff Tesreau, reputed to be on a par with Phil Kidder, and Virgil Heinberger, the Whatcom flash. Lappy is worried, however, little Chel, of the Bellingham Orloffs, is his only veteran in the tennis setup. Ed. Murphy, the only other remaining veteran, wants to go home and enjoy the sunshine. With all his strength centered in the same events, Carver s hopes for a tri-college championship are not too strong, especially since Creen, two-miler, is the only man lost to Cheney's 1936 championship squad. And They're Still Talking Though the basketball togs have been salted away in moth balls, the other two sports writers of our tri-college conefernce are still talking about it, so why shouldn't I throw in my two-bits worth? West, Eustace, Kerns, and Bun-stine were unanimous choices on the tri-college team picked by the three school papers. Carver received the vote of the Viking and the Ellens-burg Crier, for one forward position, while Reese, of Cheney, gave the berth to Nelson. Fabio Cappa, of the Crier, who be-, lieves in strict loyalty to his team, placed the remaining members of the Wildcat squad on the second team, giving the Norse the lion's share of the third team. That was kind of you, Cappa. Compiling a few figures for the 1937 basketball season, I found that the final standing in the tri-college conference was the same as the total season scoring. Cheney, the league champions, won 16 games and dropped five; scored 861 points to their opponents' 579; and Eustace was the league leading center, with 49 points. Ellensburg, runners-up, won 12 games and lost 9; scored 719 points to their opponents' 662; and Bun-stine, the Wildcat contribution to the all-college team, was runner-up in the scoring, with 39 points. Maybe some of the failure of the Vikings to come up to par can be contributed to their larger schedule. The Norse played 25 games, dropping 13 of them and tucking away 12 in the win column. The locals only had a three-point edge on the scoring of their opponents, rolling up 886 points to 883. Nelson was the third highest man in the conference, with 34 points. Cappa Resigns And up in Canada, they're still talking about a small college team that took the measure of all three members of the tri-college conference. . . Long has the name of Cappa reigned in my column, but it will no more. Cappa has resigned, going the rounds was too much for him. Farewell, Fabio!

Intramural Leagues Have Variety Tennis, Baseball, and Track Will Be Featured; Golf May Show Too * 'Intramural spring sports will get under way the first week of the spring quarter. Tennis, golf, track, and softball baseball will be played in the intramural leagues this spring," according to Coach Sam Carver, of the Physical Education department. A tennis ladder may be operated in conjunction with the varsity tennis squad, and as there is but one returning lettermen, Chuck Lappen-busch, tennis mentor, expects to develop some new talent from the intramural ranks. Golf will also have a ladder and although the matches will have to be played on Lakeway Golf course there is expected to be some lively competition. Track Season Promising The Swedes beat the Englishmen in their famous (or infamous) track meet last year. Bob Phair was high for the winners and Don Holder kept he.British in the running. A similar meet will be held this year, and as both Phair and Holder are in school this meet will have added interest. The greatest interest may be centered in the softball baseball league as more students will be able to participate in this sport than in any of the others. 'As baseball is not on the list for the regular sports, a larger number of men are expected to be free to turn out for the intramural program and I expect to see one of the best seasons in our history for intramural sports," was the opinion of Sam Carver, intramural advisor.

Arnold, Tuesday morning lecturer, in an interview granted just after the assembly. Arnold, who is a son of Sir Edwin Arnold, author of "The Light of Asia", revealed a delightful sense of humor when telling of the following incident: A lady once asked him, "How it it you have such vivacity and animation?" He replied. "True, madam, that my hair is growing gray, but you have no idea how pink my toes are!" The famous explorer and lecturer stated that this was his first visit to Washington, although he passed through • the state at one time on his way to Vancouver, B. C. Now that bids are called for on the new Physical Education building and the ground is about to be broken, it begins to look as though the building is not a dream but a reality. It was a figment of the imagination for so long that it seemed as though our grandchildren wouldn't be using it. But in the years to come, future students will be able to point to it proudly and say, "Four score and seven years ago, our Prexy brought forth upon Waldo field a new Physical Educa-t in building". * * * * * Maybe when we get that new PE building, something can be done about that eternal stag line at rec hours. In that gymnasium, which is to be 90 feet wide and 100 feet long, surely the d o r m a n t by-standers, both the men who sleep in the middle of the floor, and the women who gradually move nearer and nearer to the center, will be able to keep out of the way of those who are trying to dance. On November 23, the freshmen class is giving its quarterly party in the Big Gym. Whispers have circulated to the effect that only freshmen women will be allowed to come free of charge. If this is true, the enrollment of the freshmen class will undoubtedly jump amazingly between now and then. Still the plans for Homecoming continue. From the way our general chairman talks that week-end will be a combination of a rodeo, an Al G. Barnes circus, a Zane Grey story of the Wild West, and how Gram'pa fit the Indians. Our chairman may be little but what a brain! Indeed what a brain! I t is going to be a .rare treat to have some new songs to sing in praise of the Normal. I, for one, offer personal thanks to Kenneth Rue and Burdette Miller for their welcome contributions. And to think that one song is completely original! Of course, I don't think that it would be right to call in a tune detector, but at least, we won't really have heard that particular tune before. And surely this can't end without some mention of Armistice day. It is highly probable that the greatest number of students will sleep their day away. A brave few may manage to attend the inevitable parade in the afternoon. But a very few will remember the reason for an Armistice day. To all those who don't remember, it happened seventeen years ago . . . the welcome news of peace. Anyway, I want to wish you all a very happy Armistice day. He is now on a lecture tour which includes such towns as Ellensburg, Yakima, and Corvallis. Arnold Says "Ah" "Too many people drop the power of seeing things out of windows", philosophized the author, while telling of a little boy, who, although too young yet to talk, noticed everything out of the windows. "I hope I shall be able to say 'oh' and 'ah' over things, like that little boy, until the end". Showing the more serious side of his character, Arnold went on to say, "I love to speak to students. I feel that each of us should do something that leaves a useful footprint in the sands of time. For me, that is to show students how worthwhile knowledge and scholarship are", he concluded. Norsemen May Join Conference Board Sends Millikan To Cheney For Schedule Arrangement; Kenneth Rue Wins First Prize With Original 'Victory March'; Burdette Miller Places Second Once again we approach another Armistice day commemorating the end of the World War. Seventeen years ago that welcome news was proclaimed to a world that was weary of strife. Today as we celebrate this memorable event war clouds again hang heavily over the world. In these j troubled times the necessity for making the observance of this day, lyj.iiiiai.iiy a. ij^ace celebration is much greater than ever before. Although it may have seemed that our past observances of this day have taken on a boastful attitude, still they are done.in all sincerity. ' Armistice day not only represents the end of the war, but also represents a faithful tribute to those who gave their lives to insure the peace of this country. In order to determine next year's football schedule and the possible change in Northwest Conference games, the Board of Control voted at Wednesday's meeting to send President Gordon Millikan to Cheney with the football team. He will negotiate towards drawing the Normal's team into the Conference. "Local people have agreed it would be better to have Conference games," said Millikan. The Board approved of the cooperation of the American Legion in staging the next game. This organization will share the expenses and gate receipts. Rec Hour Checked I n line with the improvement of conduct at rec hours the Board decided to keep a record of outside attendance at the weekly dances. Those who do not show Associated Student tickets will be requested to register their names as they enter. The condition of the year's budget was brought up by Glen Ny-green. President Millikan pointed out the respective profits and losses of the football'games. "The unexpected expenditure for the pep band were offset," he explained, "by the saving incurred when the University Frosh agreed to play their game here last month." o Cummins Addresses International Relations Club Meet on Ethiopia Ethiopia and its background were discussed by Miss Nora B. Cummins, history instructor, at the first November meeting of the International Relations club Wednesday evening at 7:30 in the club room of Edens hall. Her talk was followed by an open discussion among the members. Ten new members were initated into the club. The regular business meeting was conducted. The. fall shipment of books which have arrived from the Carnegie Endowment was reviewed. "These books will certainly prove very interesting, as they are all new books on modern problems", states Glen Nygreen, chairman of the program commmee. Nygreen added that these books will be placed in the club library in the stacks of the library building. o 14 Composition Students Exempted Through Test Fourteen students are exempt from English composition work according to results of the test given last Thursday to freshmen in the high English group. The students found exempt are Geraldine Flansburgh, Jean Hatch, Mildred Richardson, Katheryn Hatch, Eleanor Tpmlinsori, Clara Vander Griend, Sybil Henchcliff, Jean Summers, Margaret Perkins, Doris Tarte, Winifred Krieter, Betty Howell, Barbara Kennedy and Nellie Holstar.

Class Pictures Will Be Taken Before Holiday Juniors, Seniors Urged To Sign Appointment List for Klipsun Photographs Because no junior-senior class picures for the Klipsun will be taken after Wednesday, November 20, upper-classmen are urged to make their appointments now on the list posted on the main hall bulletin board. Better service can be given to those students who make their appointments early, avoiding the last week rush. "It is necessary that all individual portraits scheduled to be taken during fall quarter be finished before Thanksgiving to make way for the photograper's Christmas trade," explains Helen Hostetter, editor of the Klipsun. A reduction on publishing cost is being offered by the Western Engraving company, engravers for the yearbook, for all engraving work submitted before March. The earlier the engraving is completed, the greater the reduction will be, says Miss Hostetter. Extra pages will be added in proportion to the amount of engraving submitted before March. Faculty pictures are being taken this week. Members of the faculty who have not had their pictures taken this year or had reprints made are asked to do so at once. Pictures are being taken at Sandi-son's studio in the Woolworth building. Mount Baker Offers Jobs to Normalites Winter sports at Mount Baker this year not only attract the usual crowds that participate and watch, but they also afford week-end work for several Normal and high school students. Fitz Hagist, manager of the Mount Baker Development company, asked Miss Gertrude Longley, Edens Hall dietitian, to send some men and women that want or need work to him for personal interviews. They go up to the lodge Saturday mornings at 10 o'clock and return Sunday evenings at 6 o'clock. Besides a regular salary, the workers' traveling expenses and board and room are taken care of by the company. These arrangements will be carried on throughout the winter season. They are especially for the skiing fans. Men's Club Participates In Two New Activities Sponsoring the Junior Varsity basketball team and forming.a men's chorus are to be the two chief activities of the Men's club in the coming months according to Mon Or-loff, president. Mr. Orloff said, "At our meeting Friday, Nov. 1, we unanimously agreed to sponsor the J V's, then took up the matter of a men's chorus". Nils Boson, of the Music department, suggested the formation of a chorus and the members immediately approved. Boyd Swanson was appointed to work with Mr. Boson in investigating and.getting this activity underway.

Like a thief in the night, Ladd Shangle has been quietly, diligently working toward the grand climax. Every waking hour he spends in planning, Hoping, dreaming about this dazzling event which will put the name of Shangle on the map. Every morning he comes to school with dark circles under his eyes after hours of restless tossing on his pallet of straw, counting over one by one the. precious plans which will make his Homecoming a colossal success. In all seriousness, Shangle has been planning for months' to make this celebration one to be long remembered and if the effort he is expending is at all effective, it will truly be so. Jerry Jacobsen, as chairman of the Homecoming dance, Pat Jacobsen and Burdette Miller, as co-editors of the Homecoming booklet and the innumerable other students who are giving their services on various committees also deserve honorable mention. This corps of committeemen is planning to entertain us and the returning grads in as royal a manner as they know how. All they need, now, to insure the complete success of the affair is our whole-hearted participation and co-operation. Armistice Interludel In the midst of international suspicion and unrest =today, there is an American soldier with the pleasant memory of a Frenchman who knew the meaning of the word "gratitude". It was in Paris on that memorable November 1 1, 1918, and the entire French capital was in a state of hysteria. Amid the joyful cries of "Fini la guerre," a lone American dough-boy sat quietly outside a cafe. A Frenchman of dignified appearance detached himself from the throng and approached the Yankee. Bending over the chair he spoke in halting English, "With your assistance. Thank you," and suddenly disappeared into the crowd. A warmness filled the American soldier for America's part in saving France.—Los Angeles Junior College. _ o THE WINNAHS!

Words by Burdette Miller. They're Flying Again . The . . Book Shelf WORKS OF ROBERT NATHAN. "ONE MORE SPRING" is a short novel of the depression difficulties which confront an elderly, bankrupt antique dealer, JARED OT-KAR, MR. ROSENBERG, a young violinist without engagements, and ELIZABETH, a destitute young street-walker. They survive the winter in a park in the heart of New York City, the philosophic Mr. Otkar and the quaintly pure Elizabeth hoping to see one more spring. When spring does come, Mr. Otkar is offered a position of steady work but prefers his newly gained freedom to a return to his old system of living. He and Elizabeth are happy with each other in the south all day long. And at night they fall asleep in each other's arms. Winter is far away and they do not worry. People are starving everywhere and with its return they will starve too. The more practical Mr. Rosenberg is spending a little money attending the last concerts of the season. He has found a rich patron who is giving a recital for his friends who will be asked o listen to a gifted young man who won the first prize at the concervatory at Paris. The recital will be a great success. Mr. Nathan writes without raising his voice. With an occasional rueful smile or other slight inflection he achieves pronounced meanings in his lyrical style. Especially is the reader aware of the subtle touches of irony. Another trivial-appearing novel exemplifying Mr. Nathan's subtle artistry of suggesting much in few words is "The Bishop's Wife" (1928). The story has a triangular plot revolving about Julia, the wife of a dogmatic and worldly bishop, the Bishop, and Michael, the archdeacon, an angel whose heavenly qualities are perceived by Julia-alone. The bishop's wife and Michael fall in love, Julia experiencing the full passion which the bishop denies her. She wrestles between this love and her scruples as a wife and mother. She abides by the latter, an inward longing for another child, having filled her heart with peace. The finest bits of the book are the scenes portraying Juliet, the five-year-old daughter of Julia, and her boy playmates, Potter and Johnson. When writing of children Nathan is inimitable. His literary rank is not yet appreciated. "Oh, I went hunting one fine day." Poor little ducks! Those cruel, brutal, heartless hunters are once again all hot on the trail, seeking to shoot the loving little creatures. Perhaps, even, many of our own Normal students will spend next Monday doing this very thing. Well, if you want to come up to my house some time we'll have a duck-dinner. Keep Posted "To be or not to be—well, it isn't much of a question if you want to do the right thing for Homecoming. The reputation of the Normal depends upon us, so let's leave liquid refreshments to those with less responsibility. Let's get back on our favorite subject, doing right by the faculty. We find it pains them to be addressed as "Hey, Marquis" or Arnt-zen or whoever the victim might be. Teachers are presupposed to be worthy of the dignity of a Mr., Mrs. or Miss before the name, even when not entitled to the honor of "Dr." or "Dean". Scholars tell us that a student's reading matter should never be limited but surely three "VIKINGS" apiece are sufficient to grasp the contents. So rush down to the hall and take your three and three fox-each of your friends (They will do the same) because another bunch of papers will soon arrive from the print shop; or so the rest of us hope.

The game will be a feature of the Cheney Homecoming and will be played Saturday afternoon. Twenty-six players will make the trip. They will stay in Ellensburg, Thursday night, and will arrive in Cheney Friday afternoon in time for a light workout. They will stay in Spokane Friday night and come to the game by bus. "We are in the worst shape possible and will be lucky to hold the Savages to three or four touchdowns', the Viking mentor, Chuck Lappenbusch said. "With several of our first string men out and other regulars shifted to their places, we haven't a chance of winning". Frender is Out With two first string tackles out and the regular end on the sick list, the Viking line will be considerably weakened. Bill Frender tackle, was hurt in scrimmage and will be out for the season. Frender, a three-year man, was one of the mainstays on the team and his loss will be keenly felt. Maurice Tooley, tackle, will be ineligible on account of grades. The end who played so well in the PLC game, George Smith, is on the sick list.

Bartons defeated Alexanders 25-19, and the Vikings defeated the Kitchen Krew by a score of 24-17. Bartons Bootery started off with a lead in points at the first of their game. They had the advantage over Alexanders team in that their team was heavier and had more experienced players. Although Alexanders team did not start with a bang, they ended the first half with more scores than their opponents. In the third, quarter, Bartons Bootery made a spectacular ally, gaining a lead which lasted to the end of the game. Alexanders team made a feeble attempt at scoring near the end of the game, but could not overcome the lead their opponent had on them. The Vikings vs. Kitchen Krew game was a clean fast game, with the Vikings holding the lead throughout the four quarters.

It says that there will be little change in college men's pockets this year. I might add, "That's true, that's very true!" much action.

Phone 882 Located in the Home Market Votaw scored early in the fourth quarter on an end run after eluding and outrunning the Viking secondary. The rest of the game was evenly played with both teams fumbling regularly. Tarte was outstanding in both defensive and offensive play along with Dzurick and Smith for the Vikings. Moe, Votaw, and Svinth were the Lutheran strong men. After a hard fast battle the speedy Co-op team emerged on the long end of the 36-37 score. The game, although rather rough, with both teams collecting an enormous number of fouls, was a spectacular opening for the intramural basketball season. Greggs was high point man for both the Monday games, scoring 14 points for the Co-op. The game see-sawed back and forth the entire four quarters until after two overtime periods, the Co-op scored the winning goal. Pat and Jerry Jacob-son were outstanding for the "W" club, scoring 19 points between them. In the final game of the day the Men's club won a fairly easy game with Edwards hall by a score of 33 to 18. This game equalled a football practice for roughness, with several men going out on personal fouls. Singer was high man, scoring 11 points for the winners.

That was one time when the Fems would like to have traded places with the players. There were so darn many blankets at the game that I'll bet many a mother and father had to wait up till the blankets came home. Just about the best heat invention I saw was an electric waffle iron plugged in the broadcasting booth taking turns (and on it... and four girls burns) sitting If comparative scores mean anything, the Vikings haven't a chance of taking Cheney tomorrow. Cheney has beaten Gonzaga and Gonzaga trimmed Washington State which makes Lappy very dizzy. With six 3-year lettermen and three 2r-year men on the team, the Cheney coach, Red Reese, must have his boys just about perfectly coached. At least, he's had plenty of time. One of Cheney line-up is Patsy Frank, a newcomer to break in the 188 pound half, and according to advance reports, plenty good, and the only reason that Frank broke in, is because Moss, regular halfback, also a 3-year letterman, is out with injuries. The soda fountain coaches around here agree that the Vikings will lose by at least three touchdowns.

Drives Against Deadly Malady To Commence Christmas Seal Sales Begin Day After Thanksgiving; Fight Tuberculosis , With the distribution of 25 million Christmas seals throughout the state, the Washington Tuberculosis association is beginning the annual campaign against tuberculosis. Seal sales will begin November 29 and close Christmas eve. Proceeds from the sale will be used in the fight against this disease. "With the encouragement given us though a reduction of deaths from tuberculosis in 1934 and the constructive interest shown by the public in our program", says Mrs. R. O.

Meetings to discuss the work are being held in the various counties and plans are being laid to make this year's campaign a big success according to reports from the association headquarters. In a recent report Mrs. McCredie said, "I have every faith that the continued support of the public will permit our work to expand during 1936, and I earnestly appeal to all to cooperate to this end".

Starlund has had three years experience teaching dancing in Monroe, Sultan, and Snohomish. By his system, each student who signs up for the class will take at least four lessons. The time and place has not as yet been definitely announced. Upon Starlund's recommendation, the Board named Naomi Watson as his assistant. Committees Appointed President Gordon Milikan appointed three chairmen: Joe Hager, a committee to compile an administrative calendar showing the functions and powers of the Board; and Nancy Smith on an awards committee. It was decided to hire Mel Mc- Kee's orchestra for the rec hour on March 8. Jack Burns' music will be heard at this afternoon's dance. Final decision on requisitions was deferred until the next meeting. — o I Norjnalite POOL a * * * PENCILS * * * * POETRY By James Joyce Jones and Sherwood Anderson Allan Dame Rumor's husband has it that some notable students are about to petition a pool table into one end of Edens hall. They feel that it could both be used as a gathering place for the inmates (there would be no danger of fire that way) and a "49ers" boom for the recreational program. Well, there will come a day. WSNS A new course in Library has been suggested* much to the pleasure of the freshmen, who seem to get a certain gloomy satisfaction from their expeditions into the gloomy recesses of this monastic pile, which just reeks with knowledge—so I've heard—, the acumen of seventy civilized centuries about! My, my, think I'll lake a walk. WSNS Pencils, typewriters, typesetters, black ink, and a few more words are added to the billions of paragraphs published every Friday for the perusal of the critical but perhaps apathetic eyes of the great American public. In other words, Mr. Arntzen's national debt and Dr. Bond's millions of little white skeletons that go to make a small chalk line on the board have nothing over the number of words printed in the New York Times, The Northwest Viking, and other publications. The same verbs are used by Hearst's Brisbane and Will Rogers, but what a whale of a difference the context makes. The moral is always write clear, concise sentences. -WSNS It's about time to have some poetry about Milady's eyebrow, at least the orange blossoms perfume the air in Florida. Is it spring or isn't it? Well, where are our Longf ellows then? Just slide your contributions under the Viking office door at 7 next Tuesday morning. WSNS A can opener will soon be a prerequisite for entrance to school if we dont bring opera glasses to read (Continued oh Page TWO) Shakespeare's 'Twelfth Night' To Be Presented Next Week By Normal Division of Drama Burnet Leaves for Study, Examination Of Writing Groups News Classes Will Give Quarterly Reports on Metropolitan Papers and Books Helen Scott Victor Dickinson Virginia George Herbert Wilkinson Fisher Leaves For Legislature New Name for Normal School May Be Proposed Soon At Session President C. H. Fisher left Bel-lingham Tuesday, February 26, for Olympia. The main purpose of his trip is to see about appropriations for salaries, running expenses, and the new Physical Education building. While he is in Olympia President Fisher will also consider the advisability of introducing a bill which is designed to change the official title of the Normal school. The proposed name is Western Washington College of Education. President Fisher will return to Bellingham at the end of the week. Heaney Exhibition Shown Next Week Black and white block prints by Charles Heaney, Portland artist, are being shown in room 305 of the Art department. All students are asked to see this exhibition only when the room is vacant. - ^ The exhibition will be continued next week. Tuesday evening, from 7 to 9 o'clock, the display will be open to the public. —o- Beiswenger Will Speak At Blue Triangle Club Miss Anna Beiswenger, supervisor of FERA work in Whatcom and Skagit counties, will speak to the Blue Triangle club on "Adult Education" at the March 6 meeting. The meeting lt;will be held at 7:30 in the clubhouse. Anyone interested is invited to be present. Miss Beiswenger is a former member of the Normal faculty. Compulsory Training Measure Is Defeated A bill to prohibit compulsory military training at the normal schools, University of Washington, Washington State college, and other public institutions was considered defeated last Wednesday when a motion to put it on the house calendar was killed. The measure would have prohibited compulsory training in any public school, but would have allowed optional training at the institutions of higher learning. Vikings To Clash With PLC Team At Eight Tonight Lutherans Have Impressive Record For This Season's Play; Use Zone Defense Facing a squad that has won sixteen out of twenty games this year, the Viking basketeers tangle with the Pacific Lutheran quintet tonight on the Whatcom high school maple court. Last Saturday the Norsemen tripped up this team by a score of 27-24, and the Lutherans are determined to reverse that score tonight. Coach Cliff Olson has moulded an experienced, fast-breaking aggregation that has marked up an impressive record this year. It will be remembered that the Ellensburg squad was forced to go an overtime period before they could defeat these stubborn Lutheranites. Lutherans Use Zone Defense Not only will the fans see a fast game offensively but they will also witness a new type of defensive play. Coach Olson's squad uses the zone defense style of play, a type of basketball seldom seen in these parts. (Continued on Page Three) Vancouver Audience Criticizes Favorably Following her appearance before the Women's Music club of Vancouver two weeks ago, Miss Christine Albers, Normal student and prominent local pianist, was favorably criticised by two Vancouver newspapers. Miss Albers is scheduled to present a program in the March 5 assembly. The write-up in the Vancouver Sun stated: "Miss Albers played in musicianly style, giving evidence of technical ability and a real flare for tone coloring. The pianist was extremely successful in her interpretation of the Debussy numbers in which she created a characteristic atmosphere, playing with pleasing touch and rhythmic feeling:" The article appearing in the Vancouver Daily Province stated: "Very acceptable contributions were presented by Miss Albers, a young pianist who delighted listeners in Mendelssohn and Debussy numbers." Miss Albers has appeared in many recitals in Bellingham. She is organist at the First Presbyterian church. New Board Members Quizzed Shulz Likes To Cook and Watch Portsiders Play Basketball; Svarlein Refuses To State Future Plans . By Ruth Carmichael "Just sit on a cushion and sew A fine seam, feast upon strawberries Sugar and—well better make it skim milk," was the snappy reply from Louise Shulz, Board of Control representative, when asked what,she enjoyed doing. On more definite inquiry as to whether she can sew she evades the question with, "Oh, sew and sew." As for cooking, Miss Shulz brags she early learned that the shortest route to a man's heart is through his stomach. Miss Shulz says a favorite pastime is listening to Guy Lombardo's orchestra and watching the Portsiders play basketball. Svarlien Prefers Solitude Oscar Svarlein, the other Board representative elected this quarter, insists that he doesn't prefer solitude because of any superciliousness on his part but because people seldom agree with,him, and it is easier to leave others alone than to spend precious time convincing them of their mistakes Svarlein continues with, "I would hesitate before stating definitely as to what I intend doing in '••he future, because if I even say I am going to do a thing I feel obliged to continue, though I have changed my plans. You see, I've a horror of beng accused of being incapable of completing my plans." Committee Meets For Discussion Faculty Suggestions for Revision Of Honor Court Charter Are Discussed To discuss the rewriting of the senior honor court charter, members of the charter committee met with faculty representatives last night. The suggestions which the faculty had previously presented were discussed, and the weaknesses in the charter analyzed. The original charter was drafted by the Men's club committee on traditions. Members of the committee appointed by Bill Frender, Men's club president, are: President C. H. Fisher, H. C. Ruckmick, V. H. Hoppe, W. J. Marquis, Harry Win-sor, and Clyde Kendall. The charter will be rewritten and submitted at a future meeting. Tournaments Start In Chess, Pinochle By Roberta Thygeson "I challenge anyone in this school to a game of chess", so stated Mr. Arntzen at the last Board of Control meeting, so come on you chess players and let's determine the winner. Tournaments of all sorts "will begin next week in conjunction with the Recreational program at Edens hall. "The schedule for the games was completed today", said Louis Shaffer, "and we hope to get some of them started tonight". Pinochle will take the longest to play, off, since more students have signed up for that than for any other game. By Wednesday noon the following had signed up for chess: Wilson Waylett, Harry Winsor, Leonard Carroll, Oscar Starlund, Jerry Ja-cobson, Pat Allan, and Ralph Shen-enberger. Auction bridge and checkers will also be played and it is hoped that much enthusiasm will be aroused. Talented Dramatist Wins Favor With Monologues Normal school students were again favored by Miss Dorothy Crawford, who appeared in a program of monologues in last Tuesday's assembly. Miss Crawford first sketched a lively-witted English charwoman in a burglary scene. Donning an apron, she gave a characterization which won instant applause. "The Fisherman's Wharf", combining pathos with humor, and "The Golfer", initial performance of a self-confident beginner, were repeated by request. Women s League To Secure Seattle Talent For March Program Authentic Japanese tea ceremony or a debate on munitions are two of the possibilities for entertainment to be provided at the next Women's League assembly program, March 8. Evelyn Larson, Women's League vice-president, has written to the Japanese consul in Seattle to secure the first feature.

Broadcasters Cast Out Education Broadcasts of educational material, or programs of an educational nature are not an innovation to radio. For many years the large broadcasting networks have co-operated with the school systems in a degree by releasing programs that were educationally beneficial to. the public. ,;Recently, however, there has been much agitation between the national committee on education by radio and the station owners. It is a fact that radio sponsors have not been so keen about contracting programs of an educational nature. Because of this such programs have been entirely at the mercy of the stations, for time for broadcasts. It has been pointed out that educational broadcasts appeal to the more substantial type of citizens. Why should the radio public allow stations to operate with nothing but "advertising. programs" ? Readers do not allow newspapers to thrive with nothing but advertising to hold their interest. Education really has something of a high caliber to offer broadcasters, but until the time comes when people revolt against continuous advertising stunts, worthwhile programs will continue going down the stream of hope waiting for their chance to be the river of the future. Chess and Checkers are Main Events America By Elmer Lade According to the song writers: A slowly meandering river, along whose banks dwell 120,000,000 melancholy, moonstruck Peter Pans who are all positively that way about each other. —to the advertisers: A mass of good natured morons who will buy and buy if only you succeed in making your product ridiculous enough. (Incidentally, let's fire a salute, and hope our aim isn't too bad, in honor of the manufacturers of Camel cigarettes for having invented the finest piece of advertising idiocy in many a day.) —to Mr. Hearst: A treasure house of truth and grand tradition, beset on all sides by dangerous madmen, but, happily, under the guardianship of good St. William. —to the modern novelists: Smoke muffled hum and the stabbing persistency of revolving wheels. Shuffling feet on gray streets, like aimless revery. . . . She tripped over a lean, bewildered rat and muttered dispiritedly, "tb * —to our politicians: A swell place to turn an honest penny. Long may she wave! —to Hollywood: Legs, legs, LEGS! them! Whoops! Millions of Enjoy the smokeless smoker tonight when Bartons meet Daniels in the preliminary basketball game. It's guaranteed to be tame, but there's always the chance that something might happen. And. why not stay for the Varsity game also? It should be a spirited evening's enjoyment without added cost. Predictions Come True Eleven years ago the Weekly Messenger (Northwest Viking) appeared as a leap year number, being published on February 29. At that time predictions were made on events that would transpire before the next February 2 9 issue will be printed, which will be in 1952. We still believe that this is an age of speed. The following predictions are the most timely: : Men will comprise one-eighth of the student-body population. ASB tickets will not be transferable. Freshmen class meetings will be business-like. There will be some new'tennis courts. The Sehome hill cable car will run every 15 minutes. ; There will be a place to sit down in the library. . There will, be some fresh air in assemblies. —to Gertrude Stein: Is blurt blurt Is blurt is blah Blah blurt blurt blah It must have been moonglow. Normalite (Continued from Page One) the bulletin with. It's a great way to get closely acquainted with the important people. Why doesn't the recreational program get Mr. Arnt-zen and — lt;?—to set up a chess table at the foot of the main stairs? It pays to advertise, and oh, you Kibitzers! WSNS Six nights away is the "Twelfth Night". Sounds like Aylmer Bright's formula representing his debt to society—a circle with a negative radius. "Or What You Will" comes just below the "Twelfth Night" business. It's all right to say we will, but suppose we' don't? WSNS It's silly. A herd of teachers in the East demand the right to openly discuss economic alternatives to capitalism. A herd ' of future teachers here in Bellingham demand the right to fritter away their gilded hours in the north end of the dining room at Edens hall. We look back with a bit of nostalgia at the Spartans, gleefully tossing misfits over cliffs and things. W S N S— But the touch heroic came when .

You're right—it's the all-college chess and checker tournament. The only requirements for entering these contests are the much-talked-of self-confidence, courage, and determination to succeed. Auction bridge players are also going to try their hands (a pun) in a tournament, but conspicuously absent is one in contract bridge. It would seem that recreational program devotees are a bit behind the times or else they are just reverting As one of tne faculty members, Edward J. (in person) Arntzen, is the main challenger in the chess contest, it promises to wage more hot and heavy than the others. Two of Mr. Arntzen's most threatening opponents will be Oscar Svarlien and Wilson Waylett, who are now secretly girding themselves for the fray. Pinochle, that game which is played minus a few cards in the deck, is going to have a tournament all of its own too, and the entries for that are certainly numerous (Yes, and aren't there a lot of them?). Of secondary importance is the kibitzing tournament, which is being held in connection with the others, for what is any game without a kibitzer? And after all this we loudly shout, "Where does poker come in?" o Proper Conduct By Emil Post The following hints on proper etiquette for varying occasions have been composed after a long and careful study. If you follow these little gems of wisdom carefully, you are sure to be popular wherever you may go. In conversing with sophisticated girls of short acquaintance, always avoid calling them "Miss", as this tends to make them believe that you are trying to be aloof. Always call the more reserved ones "Babe", or "Tutz", and chuck them playfully under the chin. This lowers their guard (especially if you lead with your left), and seldom fails to crack the ice. A few sparkling comments like, "Urn — humm — nice weather", or "Um—humm—terrible weather", or "Um — humm — fair weather", is sufficient to reduce the already cracked ice to*a mere lukewarm slush. v If you step on a girl's feet while dancing, let her apologize while you sneer faintly. If it happens too often, the best thing to do is to tell her that while you are perfectly willing that she may ride on your feet, would she please quit stepping on and off as it ruins your otherwise perfect balance. In helping her on with her coat, always hold the sleeves at the elbow, so that her arms will be unable to go through. This shows that you have a sense of humor and are a good sport. If, at a dinner • party, you spill soup on the host's' head, trip the waiter, or get caught kissing the maid, don't apologize as this indicates that you can't take it. Merely look nonchalant, light a Murad (paid adv.) and make a clever pun including remarks about soup to nuts, dumb waiters, or matching lipstick. If you try all these and are still not a social success, better take the next bus back to Bronx, as we fear that your case must be hopeless. Harvard authorities are checking up on that famous Harvard^ accent. They are making phonograph records of freshmen's voices, and then another when they graduate or leave. This may not be Harvard but still you must admit it's a good idea. ~ This note of encouragement for pauperized pursuers of knowledge appeared in the Southwest Standard: The seniors should worry—egad! It's only some nineteen more weeks until they can get on relief. Are seniors dumber than freshmen ? In an investigation made by the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of ---------- Northwest Viking - 1935 March 1 - Page 3 ---------- WASHINGTON STATE NORMAL SCHOOL, BELLINGHAM, WASHINGTON Short Shots at SPORTS Bob Lindsley Led by Captain Joe Hager, the 1935 all-star intramural team presents a lineup that includes high scoring, good passing, and plenty of checking ability. Hager, unanimously picked as guard, was named to lead the stars because hq is the only one to crash this select group for the second consecutive year. Two men from the Northwest Viking, and one each from the Southpaws, Daniels, and the Men's club make up the personnel of the.first team. The second five includes one each from Daniel's, Scotchmen, Barton's, Co-op, and Men's club. The two teams as selected by the all-star board of Coach Sam Carver, Louis Shaffer, and your correspondent are as follows: First Team Second Team Singer, P .F..Alexander, Co-op DeVries, NWV....F.... Stuurmans, SC; Starlund, MC C Frender, D. Ames, D G. Oltman, MC Hager, NWV ,_...G J. Jacobsen, D. Vikings Will Play Final Game With Vancouver Team University of British Columbia Have Strong Team; Center Scores High The center position proved to be the easiest selection to make as Starlund stood out head and shoulders above the rest of ,the candidates. Although a natural forward, Starlund was forced to play center on his team and finished well up in the scoring lists of the season, outplaying practically every one of his opponents. He is plenty fast, aggressive, and possesses a deadly shooting eye. Frender played only the last half of the season and was one of the mainstays of the Daniels squad. He is big and rugged enough but lacks the scoring punch to rate first team selection. Vikim gs Trounce Yakima Basksteers Carver Stars in Viking Attack; Plays Bewilder Visitors Picking the forwards was the toughest job the board faced because of the over-abundance of outstanding players. The problem finally narrowed down to Singer, DeVries, Alexander, and, Stuurmans as the most outstanding. DeVries was selected on his all-around playing. He was generally conceded to be the best floor man in the league, and averaged seven points per game in the scoring department Singer, the sparkplug of the Portsiders, was given the call over Alexander and Stuurmans in view of his ball-hawking and general aggressiveness. He gave the greatest single exhibition of the season in the Bartons game. Under terrific bombardment by the heavy artillery of Carver, Van-der Griend.and Dombroski, the Yakima Junior college five was completely submerged in the short end of the 53-27 score on the Whatcom floor last Thursday night. Running away from a 13-13 tie in the early part of the contest, the Northmen settled down to a 27-18 lead at intermission, finally to end the battle on top of the 53-27 tally. Viking Plays Work Although the play was individually ragged, the tutors executed their plays to great advantage. The apple pickers lost much time in attempting to follow the intricate deception of the Normalites. Carver led the scorers with 17 points, while Vander Griend and Dombroski nailed up 12 and 9, respectively. "Silent" Dan Gagnon looked good in holding Fewell, lanky six-foot-six Yakima forward, to a half dozen markers. Summary: Yakima, 27 Normal, 53 Fewell, 6 F..Vandergriend, 12 Larrabee, 5 F Fitzer, 3 McGordon, 3 C Carver, 17 Nultey, 1 G Zambas, 3 Nelson, 3 G Stutz, 5 Substitutes — Yakima, Smith 5, Shearer 4, McCoy; Normal, Dombroski 9, Gagnon 5, Taylor, Edwards, Dorr. Intent on regaining the honors taken from them in an early season game in Vancouver, the Vikings will tangle with the University of British Columbia in a return game at the Whatcom high school gymnasium Tuesday, March 6. This is the last game for the Vikings. The game was originally scheduled for March 1, but the Canadians are playing in a city championship tournament in Vancouver That the Canadian quintet is a strong team is indicated by its game with Ellens-burg. The Wildcats were extended to an overtime period before they won. Portsiders Lose First Game 21-16; Come Back to Win Second 25-14,Sending Series For Championship Title Into Third Battle Southpaws Hit Their Stride And Even Score With Newsmen; Third Game Monday Center Is Dangerous The University of British Columbia features a good passing attack. The same players have been playing together for three years. Henderson, who scored 14 points in the last game with the Vikings is the most dangerous man in the Canadian line-up. The Canadians won their game from the Vikings by a 33-29 score, conserving a lead taken early in the game. At one time the quintet from Vancouver had a 12-4 lead. Coach Chuck Lappenbusch will start Dombroski and Fitzer at forwards, Carver at center, and Stutz and Zambas in the guard position. Gagnon the Viking speedster, will be held in reserve for this game until Coach Lappenbusch picks a player for Gagnon to check. Henderson Against Carver Willouthley and Barthley will be the starting forwards for the University of British Columbia. The guards will be Mansfield and Bringle. Mansfield is a veteran guard for the Canadians. Henderson, the high scoring center, will oppose Dick Carver. A great battle is expected between these two. The prelimnary will be played between Bartons hall and the Vikings. Winners Check Closely Singer, McCleery Hit the Basket From Long Range With The WAA Because of the dearth of outstanding guards and abundance of forwards, Ames was moved back to one guard slot.. Ames finished second in scoring the second half and is big and a good checker. He would be valuable to any team in the back court. Hager, while not an exceptionally high scorer, was in the board's opinion the most valuable man in the league because of his defensive ability. He takes in everything off the backboard and is especially adept at breaking up passes. He can also be used at center. Oltman and J. Jacobsen both are good passers and possess plenty of height and good shooting eyes. Di-vird, of the Men's club, gave these men a close race for positions. Vikings Victorious Pacific Lutheran College Losi Homecoming Game A fast-stepping Viking squad arrived at Tacoma last Saturday with high hopes of gaining their fifth straight victory. They were successful in their venture, downing a fighting Pacific Lutheran college team by a score of*27-24, before a large homecoming crowd. Incidentally it was the Lutherans' fourth defeat in sixteen starts. I t was the ability of the Viking guards to send long shots swishing through the nets after they had failed to break through the opponents' zone defense that gave the visitors their well-earned victory. Tony Zambas and Sheldon Stutz were those fancy-shooting guards. Zambas sunk four baskets while his running mate, Stutz, made two. Carver, not to be outdone, scored nine points, which made him high scorer for the fourth straight game.

They use a wide-open, fast-breaking type of offensive play.

Miller, philosophy, psychology instructor, at the Kiwanis club meeting at the Bellingham hotel Tuesday noon. Dr. Miller pointed out that plants and animals have been radically improved since their domestication 200 years ago. "Human nature," he maintained, "is more plastic and modifiabe." He predicted that when men like Einstein, Millikan, and Compton turn as ardently to problems of human and social relations as to control of the physical universe, the level of civilization will be raised. Student Discusses Confucian Doctrine Mrs. Rhoades Describes Religion To Philosophy Club Confucian philosophy and its doctrines was the theme discussed by Mrs. Pearl Rhoades after the business meeting of the Philosophy- Psychology club Wednesday evening. Mrs. Rhoades, a student at Normal, briefly described the life of Confucius and his beginning a different type of religion. She made it known that the Confucian religion was mainly ethical in nature, and made up in the most part by proverbs, some of which she read. o Cummins Attends State Convention Miss Nora B. Cummins of the Social Science department attended the International Relations conference in Seattle last Friday. This was a branch meeting of the National Council for the Prevention of War. Delegates from Washington, Oregon, Idaho, and Montana attended. A round table discussion was held by a group of women to show what can be accomplished through adult education. Several University of Washington men worked out a symposium on the proposed treaty regulating the sale of munitions. Mrs. Frederick Beggs, national vice-president, spoke on "Doing the Impossibe". She brought out that self-government "is necessary in order to have a real democracy.

A COLLEGE OF EDUCATION, BELLINGHAM, WASHINGTON Normalite SUMAS • • • • SURVEY • # • * SUPREMACY • • * e SOULS By Elmer Lade Sumas, Wash. Editor Northwest Viking; Dear Sir: I have always wanted to be a foreign correspondent, especially after reading "The Sun Also Rises". Chances are that Hemingway's picture of itinerant pressmen does not represent the norm, bur as far as I could gather from reading his book, a foreign correspondent is a sort of journalistic remittance man whom the home office-pays to frequent bars and bull-fights, and not to write news stories. They must, however, feel very, very futile. Now there is nothing particularly exotic about Sumas. One could abide here for twenty-five years and never see a bull-fight. But it is a grand place to feel futile in, and I am glad for this opportunity to send my copy through the mail, because doing so suggests progress towards the melancholy sinecure Hemingway talks about. * * * * * Whenever I mentioned Sumas around the Normal a general laugh usually followed. And despite the fact that those people who laughed the loudest came, in most cases, from Ferndale or Stanwood, or some equally inconsequential geographical expression, their witless uproar rankled. The natural conclusion was that Sumas, as a city, possesses characteristics unusually outlandish. So I decided that on returning home I should view Sumas with a cold objective eye, calculate closely, and" analyze to a hair, and then, providing nothing sensational developed, like Sandburg "turn to those who sneer at this my city and give them back the sneer, etc." Board Appoints Hostetter Head Of Next Annual Business Manager Is Unchanged; Allan Appointed to Position On Newspaper Three Boats Get Names None of Names Suggested Normalstad Approved For But applying scientific objectivity to one's home town is a pretty tough proposition. One is either sure that his town is the "best little burg in the state" or "the lousiest slab that man ever lived in". After contemplating Sumas as it extends from Front street to the Canadian boundary I can only hazard this much in its defense: that in the length and breadth of Washington there is probably no better place to leave. Which, of course, is only a wild generalization based on prejudice and civic pride. * * * * * Sumas, like every other small town, is full of gypsy souls who want to "get out". Select at random from its population any individual under fifty years of age and draw him into conversation; you'll find that he wants to "get out". If not, you are probably talking to one of the reasons why Sumas is said to be "the city that never buries its dead". But unless you do happen to encounter one of those fortunate vegetables who are content to simply sit and watch the seasons swing by, the general theme will be that happiness is something that lies just outside the city limits—or some place indefinitely beyond. It's worse in the winter when a body has nothing to do but sit indoors and watch the rain cut holes in the gravel streets. Then the comment is not just a fervent wish to visit Tahiti or Pamplona, but a vindictive threat to "leave this dump on its ears and never return!" Helen Hostetter was appointed to the editorship of the Klipsun for 1935-36 by the Board of Control at a special meeting held Friday, June 7. Miss Hostetter served as associate editor on the Klipsun staff for 1934-35 and previously edited the Whatcom High school year book, the Kulshan. Business manager for the coming year will be Cliff Johnson, who held the same position on the 1934-35 staff. The Board elected Pat Allan, Northwest Viking business manager for the summer quarter. Allan held the editorship of the Viking in 1933. President Fisher met with the Board of Control to discuss the school budget for next year. The tentative schedules of expenses made by the department heads were presented to the Board. It made a definite recommendation to the Board of Trustees for the price of the Associated Student fee. The names suggested for Normalstad and the three boats were read to the Board by Oscar Svarlein. "Viqueen, Viking, and Sehome" were chosen for the boats. Since none of the names suggested for Normalstad were particularly ap.- propriate it was decided that no action would be taken until next fall. Friday, June 2 1 , 1935 Christensen And Flick To Serve Board of Control Hager To Formulate Plans Board's Social Event For This Quarter For Theona Flick and Julia Chisten-sen who have been previous members of the Board of Control were appointed to serve with this group, at a meting held Wednesday, June 19. Theona Flick was vice-president of the Associated Students' in 1933, and Julia Christensen held the same position the following year. Because the summer members had not yet been appointed there was not a quorum present and a discussion period took the place of the regular meeting. Maurice Tweit's orchestra was selected to play at the mixer which is to be held Friday, June 21, in Bdens hall. As the usual picnic which is given for the Board members in the spring was neglected this year, Joe Hager was asked to formulate plans for a social event of this kind. Kibbe, George Will Lead Hike Up Church Mt. First All Day Outing of Summer To Take Hikers To Ranger Cabin at Top Party To Leave at 7:30 View of County and Eraser, River Valley Is Splendid Luncheon Friday Prof. Snedden Will Be Guest At Noon Luncheon Popular Artists Scheduled For This Quarter Wide Variety of Musical Programs Planned for Summer Session's Assemblies Institute Will Be Held In Portland Social Science Department Heads To Select Representatives To Conference Very interesting lectures and recitals are scheduled for this quarter's assemblies. Friday, June 21, President Fisher will extend a welcome to the new students after which the Seattle Mixed quartet will render a group of vocal selections. June 25, heralds the Concert Ensemble—piano, violin, and dramatic baritone. June 28, Professor Snedden of Columbia will appear in a flute recital. Louis Van Ogle, professor of music at the University of Washington, will lecture on Finald, July 5. With Miss Lillian M. George and L. A. Kibbe as leaders, about twenty aspiring alpinists will leave school tomorrow morning at 7:30 for the long, long trek up Church mountain. The party will drive up to the Church mountain trail, about fine miles past Glacier, where they will take to the wilds up the hill. The trail is an excellent one, although the last L. A. Kibbe mile through snow may fetch shivers from the less hardened hikers. The view from the ranger station at the summit is splendid, since the mountain stands out practically alone. The north end of Whatcom county can be seen entirely, and the Fraser river valley can be traced for about 100 miles. The return trip offers opportunity for splendid snow sliding and also a dandy chance to wear out those dirty cords you've been wanting to get rid of. That mile of snow will go faster than all the rest of the hike if you know the art of snow-sliding. The only requirements for the trip and a good time are a big lunch, lots of enthusiasm, and the fare of 75 cents. A chance to meet Professor Snedden of Columbia Teacher's college, New York, at an appetizing luncheon, and an opportunity for an informal discussion will be offered next Friday to all students and faculty members. Honoring Professor Snedden, the Interclub council will sponsor a luncheon Friday noon, June 28, in the Edens Hall Club room. Tickets priced at 25 cents will be on sale in the Co-op next week for Normal students and in the president's office for the faculty. This is to be the first luncheon given summer quarter and everyone is urged to attend.

And, being Brisbane, he would probably point out with forthright logic that "happiness is not geographic". And, as usual, he would be saying the safe thing. But, still in all, that is not absolving small towns from the sin of apathy—if it is a sin. So far this column has conformed in no respects to the policy, of "Normalite". But then, what were the policies of "Normalite"? Anyway, my position as foreign correspondent should give me some license. held at Reed college in Portland, Oregon, from July 5 to 15, are to be chosen soon by faculty members of the "Social Science department. The board of control has granted $50 for expenses. To qualify for the trip to Portland, a student must have been in school spring quarter, and attend during the summer or next fall, or both. The institute includes a ten day course for those interested in peaceful settlement of national and international problems. Miss Nora B. Cummins, E. J. Arntzen, and Gordon Millikan comprise the committee to choose the delegates. o Leader Promises Salmon Bake For Chuckanut Hikers Student Recreation Fans Planning Hike to Dead Man's Point; Food Featured Dead Man's point, on Chuckanut bay, will be the designation of student recreation fans next Tuesday. This will be the first of the Tuesday evening hikes scheduled on the summer's recreation program. The cove is about five miles from school. The climax of the trip will be when the hikers come back to the natural dry-dock, however, for Dr. E. A. Bond has promised to prepare a salmon. bake. According to students who know from experience, the salmon bake alone should guarantee the success of the trip. Each hiker is to bring his own cup and spoon. The cost of the lunch will be about 25 cents. Those desiring may sign up for the salmon bake only. Another interesting singer is Robert Crawford, frequently referred to as the "flying baritone" because he pilots his own plane. Miss Edith Kopelson and Alan Kopelson who will appear in a joint recital of drama and verse with music offer a very delightful program. They will present individualized literary cameos with musical preludes and settings. Lucia Chagnon a mezzo-soprano who will sing a number of well known selectio'ns July 19. For the last assembly of the first six weeks Dr. S. Barclay of Stanford university,will lecture. o Experimental Tests Given to Reporters With scores ranging all the way from 31 to 60 out of a possible 75 in a current events test, last quarter's Newswriting classes were left feeling a little less certain the final week of the spring term about what was really "news" for the past ---------- Northwest Viking - 1935 June 21 - Page 2 ---------- ^HlNGTbN SfTATE: NdRMAL SCHOOL; A COLLEGE OF EDUCATION.

Summer School Not So Dusty Horizons Clear as Tired Teachers Return To Alma Mater Contests Come And Contests Go; Normalstad Forever? Back in the summer of 1932 the Normal school conducted a contest to re-name Normalstad, the school property on Lake Whatcom. It was felt that the name was not quite appropriate for the beautiful tract of land. The name, after the summer of '32, still remained Normalstad. iSome students and faculty, when referring to the property, have called it College Woodland, etc., since that time. The official name however remained the same. Last quarter the Board of Control conducted a contest. They wished to change the name of Normalstad. But the fact is that no name submitted to the Board was thought suitable. The control was postponed until this fall. ' Quoting from an editorial appearing in the Northwest Viking of July l, 1932: "Contests to change the name of Normalstad will probably be held in 1937." The writer of this will be able to apply for his fortune telling papers soon. The name of the Lake Whatcom property is still Normalstad. Vikings Desert Post Best Wishes Passed To New Cubs from Staff Straggling into the Viking office after a week of well-earned and needed rest, we find the place strangely quiet. Is there mischief afoot? Cant be that—there's no one around. Yet that strange feeling of someone present haunts us. A light breaks slowly upon our befuddled minds as we gaze upon the following inscription on the blackboard: "Merry Xmas wishes and a slight dash of New Year cheer in 7 up to undergrad staff members from us who now depart. "To you from failing hands •we throw the torch". Shades of the past!! Sounds to us much like friend Dorn-blut junior. All in all, there are probably more unpleasant occupations in this world, so full of unplasant occupations than attending summer school. To the many who have spent the past nine or ten months instructing the juvenile denizens of remote hinterland villages, a summer at the Normal should be more than attractive. A return, if you will, to flowers, acres of green, a view of blue over blue, culture and congeniality^ after rain, snow, deep-rutted roads, squat buildings, and the ever watchful eye of district boards. To those who have been in school throughout the entire year, the outdoor activities of the summer quarter should transform the months of June, July, and August into a sort bf scholastic picnic. If not, don't feel offended; we are only guessing anyway. Stepping Higher Looking War Campi Are Surveyed For Clever News If we begin at the bottom, we're sure to get to the top, so start here.

DORIS CONDOGEORGE is certainly glad that her honey is working and yes, Doris, watch out for a dark man. RANSOM CONVIS has a picture he certainly is proud of, in fact, he thinks it's the best picture in the house. BARTONS has certainly gone to the bow wows, why? Because it used to be the most he-man house on the hill—except EDWARDS: This summer it's nothing but a "galg-lery" off the tennis courts.

Was it John Dewey or Martin Johnson, who in a paradoxical address before the local Bartender's Local declared, "It is difficult to understand why the various types of mental disorders afflicting schoolmasters—and ma'ams (smiling parenthetically) should be so closely analagous to those contracted by persons engaged in other fields of endeavor such as—well-as politicians. "What this country needs", cried the speaker, his voice cracking, "is more propaganda for our noble educators and less for these vile—" But he was shot down before he could say "public spirited rudders of our destiny". So it couldn't have been Martin Johnson. Crime marches on.

"Tenant Farmer" by Erskine CaldwelL 1935, New York, Phalanx Press. 30 pp. $.25. Reading that factual account of living conditions in the deep South, one does not wonder that Caldwell portrays such uncouth and brutalized individuals in his novels and short stories. Certainly one scarcely expects to find an enthusiastic appreciation for Shakespeare and Beethoven among "men so hungry that many of them eat snakes, cow dung, and clay". Within the few pages of his pamphlet, Caldwell sv .cintly outlines the plight of the tenant farmer, who is now being squeezed out of sharecropping and finds it next to impossible to gain relief from the state. Then, in a series of accounts of typical cases, he shows the misery and suffering these conditions are responsible for: "in one of the rooms a six-year-old boy licked the paper bag the meat had been brought in. His legs were scarcely any larger than a medium sized dog's leg, and his belly was as large as that of a 130-pound woman. Suffering from rickets and anemia, his legs were unable to carry him more than a dozen steps at a time; suffering from maluntrition, his belly was swollen several times its normal size. His face was bony and white. He was starving to death". • Together with such wretched circumstances as Caldwell portrays one naturally expects to find a certain amount of moral degeneration. So one is not surprised when he states: "In many such Georgia communities syphilis is as common as dandruff. Incest is as prevalent as marriage in the tenant regions where normal access to the outside is shut off because of inability to travel". Caldwell sees little possibility of alleviating these conditions until the landowner-tenant system is abolished.

By Melvin Munson Summer—first issue of the mess—lots of new students—continuance of the big recreational program started last winter, quarter—and, we hope, many students that will take part in all the varied summer activities. Sam Carver, director of intramural ath- •. letics, will show you the way to an enjoyable quarter of school if you will but give him a chance. If it happens that this is your first quarter at WSNS we will give you a free verbal map of interesting places to spend your spare hours. Night baseball with the Bellingham Boosters, (you really should see this rejuvenated team in action), and after the game a brisk walk home is good for anything that ails you. Take your tennis racket out of the moth balls and give your arm a little exercise at our 'own spacious courts. Ask Coach Carver about the facilities for taking off that little roll of fat at the two near-by golf courses. If you were salted away in the country last .winter you might keep up on your horseshoes right here at school. * * * * * o s~ gt; Sam Carver Well, we almost took 'em, came from the Kps of the Washington fans after the crew races Tuesday Two out of three wins in one day should be enough to satisfy any grad. Washington, didn't have a bit of trouble in winning the Frosh and Junior Varsity events but the boats from California and Cornell were __, _ just too tough for them in the Var- D O O S t e i S 1 O T a CC sity race. Eastern coaches should ,_^ . _ _. recognize the fact that the west is S h e l t O I l 1 HIS Vv CCl Just as good if not a wee bit better than the east in the honored sport of rowing. Eastern sports writers predicted eastern victories in all three events. Western oarsmen won all three races. Conclusion—Crews from the west are fairly good. * * * * * First call for Baseball Men. Coach Carver has issued the call for baseball material to play in the contest with the summer school men from the University of Washington. Ten men have already signed up for the team. This list is headed by Boots Wooten, former Bellingham Booster captain. Other baseball greats that have signed are Bray, McClurken, Erickson, Odell, Car-boneau, Rowland, and McCleery. * * * * * " The first "part of summer quarter, as far as athletics are concerned will be devoted to intramural basketball. Eighteen men have signed the list and more are wanted so that games may be started as soon as possible. The first 4 weeks of the quarter will be devoted to intramural basketball and then later the .softball teams will hold reign. A baseball game with the University and also basketball and tennis games will be scheduled if enough men are interested. Here's to a successful and enjoyable recreational sports program. Bellingham Team Has Chance for First Place in League With a mathematical chance for first place tie, the strengthened Bellingham baseball club will face the league leading Shelton Loggers in two games at Battersby field. The first game will be played Saturday evening under the lights with the second tilt scheduled for Sunday afternoon. The Boosters, to finish in a tie for first, must win their two remaining games, while Shelton and Seattle must lose all their remaining games. Although this is not probable, as Seattle's entrant in the Northwest league will be playing the tail end Yakima, team, Bellingham will be favored to open the secnold half title. 0askeihcdi Season For This Quarter To Start Monday Fpur Team Managers Chosen By Sam Carver For Hoop Games The intramural sports program will open with basketball getting under way Monday, June 24, at 4:00. Coach Sam Carver has drawn up a four team schedule that will finish the 18th of July. The teams will play around three times. Games will be played on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday of each week. Bob Carboneau, Jerry Robinson, Henry Hoektsra, and Bill Prender have been chosen by Carver to be captains. The captains are to meet in Carver's office to pick their teams in time to play Monday at 4:00. The list of captains and their teams will be posted in Carver's office Monday morning. All Stars to Play During the middle of the season, an all star team will be picked to go to Seattle and play the University of Washington intramural team. The Husky team will play a return game with Carver's squad in the latter part of July. Last season the Huskies beat the Viking quintet quite easily. This season is too early to predict what chances the team will have this year, according to Carver. New men may be placed on a team by signing in the PE office. Men who have already signed are Bob Carboneau, Jerry Robinson, Henry Hoekstra, Bill Prender, Nos-trant, Campbell, Ranson Convis, R. Wooten, Oscar Johnson, Dave Turn-ball, Ed Angel, Ralph Shenenberger, Baseball Players AreCaUed For Turnouts; Two Tentative Games With UW Scheduled Tennis Team To Play Washington Five Men To Be Chosen From Ladder Tournament; Golf To Be Dropped Although only fpur men have signed for the tennis ladder, Sam Carver, intramural coach, expects enough men to sign up so that a five man team can be picked to play the University of Washington tennis squad during the summer. The tennis team will play the Huskies twice with a home and home arrangement. Golf may be dropped this quarter as only one.man has signed up so far. • The men who have signed on the tennis ladder are Jerry Robinson, J. Zylstra, Warren Granger, and Ralph Shenenberger. The men will be seeded and challenge matches will be played. The first five men will be picked to make the trip to Seattle. A horseshoe tournament is being planned by Carver with possibly a handball tournament. Horseshoe players who have signed are Carboneau, Erickson, Keppler, and Mc- Cartin. o Guy Roland, Keppler, Cole, Dick Hammett, McCleery, Zake McClurken, J. Zylstra, Joe Hager, Ryan, and C. Pierce.

A COIXEGE OF EDUCATION, BELLINGHAM* WASHINGTON Summer Recreation Schedule Includes Mount Baker Climb And Tuesday Evening Hikes Program of Outdoor Activities Brings Excursion To Victoria and Hikes to Other Points of Interest ; Bond Chairman of Arrangements Committee. Promising a summer of fun as well as study, the Normal school has announced plans for what is expected to be the outstanding outdoor recrational program in the history of the school. Directed by the veteran hike-leader, TDr. E. A. Bond, a faculty committee has planned outdoor activities for the students for each Tuesday evening, as well as Saturday all-day trips and week-end parties. Probably the most eagerly-awaited trip will be the traditional Mount Baker climb. Students will leave the campus at 5:00 Friday morning, July 19. Arrangements can be made to be excused from classes for the trip. A stage will transport the hikers to Glacier. From there they will hike 10 miles to Kulshan cabin where camp will be made. Leaving camp at 5:00 Saturday morning, the party will climb Mount Baker. "If the weather is clear, it would certainly pay anyone to climb Mount Baker at least once; if you do it oftener it gets into your blood and you cant stop", was Dr. Bond's comment. He advises everyone taking the trip to bring colored glasses and an alpenstock. The cost, including fare, food, and packing expenses, will probably be about $4. Hannegan Pass Trip The week-end of August 2-3-4 will bring a trip to Hannegan pass. Leaving the campus at 1:00 Friday, the hikers will drive to Shuksan. From there the group will hike 11 miles to Hannegan pass. Saturday will be spent on Goat mountain, and Sunday on Ruth mountain. Lake Ann will be the destination of recreation fans on August 17 and 18. The cost of all the week-end trips will depend upon the number going. The larger the party, the lower the stage fare will be. Another trip which is being looked forward to by a great number of students is the excursion to Victoria scheduled for July 13 Graduates Honored By Alumni Banquet At Leopold June 8 Election of Officers and Varied Program Are Held at Annual Reunion Mixer Is Tonight First Jamboree of Quarter To Be At Edens Hall With gay music from Mel McKee's orchestra wafting upon eager ears, Normal students will open the program of social activities for summer quarter* this evening when they attend the all-sehool mixer. The place is Edens hall cafeteria, and the time is as usual —eight strokes of the village clock. So when the time rolls, 'round, put on your dancing feet and forget the troubles and cares of the first week of school—and dance to your heart's content.

Two members of the faculty are attending summer school at different universities. On the night of her graduation, Campus School Graduates Give Play Production Graduates of the class of 1935 were guests at the annual Alumni reunion and banquet held Saturday evening, June 8, in the Hotel Leopold Crystal Ball room. Prank M. Brock, president of the association, was toastmaster. After the banquet, the program was held, including a message of greeting from W. D. Kirkpatrick, 'chairman of the Board of Trustees. Roll call by classes was held, and responses were heard from every five-year class beginning with the first, in 1900. Ro§er Mullen,.president of the Junior-Senior class, responded for the class of 1935. The main address was given by President Fisher. He compared the early years of the school with conditions at the present time. Officers elected for the following year are: president, Frank M. Brock; vice-president, Walter T. Arriving at I Meyer; secretary, Georgia P. Gragg. "Toad of Toad Hall" Is By Graduating Class On School Knoll Given Victoria at 10:00, students will spend the day visiting the government buildings, the Butchart gardens, the museum, and the observatory. An orchestra will provide music for dancing on the return trip. Other Saturday all-day trips will include the trip to Church mountain tomorrow and hikes to Skyline ridge and Twin Lakes pass later in the season. Hikes to near-by points of interest are planned for Tuesday evenings from 4:15 to 8:00. The destination of the different hikes will be: Dead Man's point, Normalstad, Chuckanut mountain, the coal mine, and Toad lake. Professor Snedden Assembly Speaker Columbia Faculty Member Picks Topics on Education By Francis Fisher Presenting a most delightful interpretation, the eighth grade graduating class of the Campus Elementary school gave A. A. Milne's "Toad of Toad's Hall" on the campus knoll Monday afternoon, June 10th. Miss Bertha Crawford, eighth grade supervisor, directed the production. The play dealt with the life of the obstreperous Mr. Toad and the efforts of his animal friends to tame him. Especial "mention for the work of the four main characters, namely Toad, Mole, Water-Rat, and Badger, is well-deserved. These parts were interpreted with appropriate characterization by Charles Larrabee, Richard . Baumberger, Heath Swisher, and North Burn, and Gerald Snow, respectively. As the class voted to give the production on the campus knoll, the necessary changes in scenery and setting were left to the imagination of the audience, but the at- Webfeet To Send Squad To NCAA Miss Almina Pepper, former student of the State Normal school, was married to Mr. Charles Durr Smith of Bend, Ore. The ceremony was held in the Garden Street Methodist church with Dr. Thomas W. Jeffrey officiating. Miss Hazel Mayo, of Walla Walla, and a student of the Normal school was bridesmaid. Other students participating were Messrs. Gordon Millikan and Oscar Johnson who were ushers. Mr. and Mrs. Smith departed on a motor trip to California. Upon their return they will reside in Twisp, Wash. Two members of the faculty are attending school during the summer sessions. Miss Mildred Jewell is at the University of Washington and Miss Elsie Wendling is taking postgraduate work at the University of Wisconsin. * * * * * Miss Jane Kindall, who has attended Leland Stanford university in Palo Alto, and IMiss Kathryn Livesey, of Scripps college at Clare-mont, California,' are spending the vacation with their parents.

Mr. and Mrs. Arnold left for a motor trip through the southern part of the state and after July 8, they will make their home at Sound View farm in Coupeville. Both were former students of the Normal school and were members of the Viking staff. o Changes Are Made In School Curriculum (Continued from Page One) D.

Mrs. Cornelia Williams announced the marriage of her daughter, Margaret C, to Mr. Clinton McBeath Jr. which was solemnized Saturday evening, June 15, within the home of the officiating minister, Dr. John Robertson Macartney, of the First Paresbyterian church.

Miss Plymp-ton stated that the pupils' w,ork will make a very interesting exhibit Block prints and Christmas cards made by the children are being reproduced and will be sold commercially. The proceeds Will probably be used to secure pictures for the training school. John Yaw, young Seattle artist, has promised the art department an exhibit of his portrait and plant photographs. They will be shown, some time during the summer session. Block prints by Norma Bas-sett Hall will also be shown. They are unique in that they are done in colors. The Campus School exhibit, according to Miss Plympton, will be on display in a couple of weeks. All students interested are invited to see these exhibits in the art department. The dates will be announced later. Stephen Leacock, well-known es sayist, maintains that he took to teaching because it is "the only trade that neither required exprience nor intellect". * * * * * And when Mr. Leacock received his Ph.D., he commented. "The meaing of this degree is that the recipient of instruction is examined for the last time in his life and is pronounced completely full.

Professor Snedden is the author of several books. Among them are "Cultural Education and the Common School" and "Secondary Schools in I960':, both books published in 1931.

And the story of the private secretary that—but, never mind, for here's a story about the training school—but it got polled for psycho- "logical reasons. —W.S.N.S.— Ralph Shaffer, weil knowr* editor of the University of Washington .Columns, has resigned, after a turbulent year and just previous to the publishing of his final issue.1 Oh, what a life. If a school humor editor or writer can last one year and still have any sense 01*. humor left, he is a genius. When'he says something the students like, slightly risque perhaps, the faculty censors it; after the faculty is satisfied, no one reads the stuff. .And that's no joke. —W.S.N.S.— A normal (Normal school) boy, in remarking about the hill races Sunday said: "No; it wasn't exciting at all. Only a dog was killed." —W.S.N.S.— Publisher Emanual Haldeman- Julius of "Little Blue Book"Jame, announced recently that he will revive the defunct socialist magazine, "The Appeal to Reason?' It died a sudden death, with other free speech, in 1918, when the country fell before the scythe of United States government propaganda. —W.S.N.S.— ' Slips do happen even in the lowliest of newspapers. Here is one picked from the last issue of one of the small town weeklies in this county: ,' "The law requires that all applicants must be United States citizens, in good health, and be of either sex." —W.S.N.S.— Two of the group of American mayors and their wives have been taken ill since arriving on their visit to France.

Permitting Communists to meet . in buildings of the United States government is sort of like the Knights of Columbus opening their halls to the Free Masons. —W.S.N.S.— It has long been the hope of people that a belief in a divine being would prevent war because it Would be a common power superior to each individual nation. The World War among supposedly Christian nations blasted this theory. Now some other' common and superior power is needed.

Service Tree Dedicated On Arbor Day, April 4, 1919, all of the clubs of the school, the stu dent body, and the training school, gathered around the Service Tree for its formal dedication. The tree, a native maple, was set out as a memorial for the students of the school who gave their lives in the great war. Shortly before Armistice Day of 1930 George back, head gardener, found the tree neglected and dying.

They deserve the pause of the Nation, and the honor extended to their lasting memory. It seems odd and. yet probable when one reflects that some seventeen years ago everything was "Hip-hip-hurrah, they're off to war." Little did many, except those relatives, think of the solemn thoughts to be connected with the return of these men and the day set aside to mourn them. • i • i It will be good if this sorrow for those dead is lasting enough to stand as a lesson against war m the future. The Viking goes on record for extending regret to those that find Memorial Day cutting deep. IT IS UNUSUAL Before another issue of The Viking is off the press the students will be in possession of their 1931 Klipsuns, at least that is the existing schedule. The staff is determined to have them out on time. We have not seen this year's number, but we have witnessed the diligence applied by everyone from the highest position down, and feel sure that the finished product will show such signs. It will especially be the unusual in Klipsuns if the work is finished on time. More power to you, Editor.. . o — REVENGE? Drawn into the police courts and charged with the spanking of a young child, who was quite persistent and profane in climbing over his car, a Bellingham Normal school student has received considerable local publicity and aroused several citizens. Tjje .spanking of a child by a person of legal age is against the law, andyet srwide perusal of comment all favors the local student. We agree tShat a Normal student, for one, is more or less bound by tradition to keep without the toils of the law, yet some time ago we expressed ourselves in these columns as a believer of the fact that oftentimes a spanking is more effective than the modern application of psychological reprimandation. We haven't changed our minds. Spanking is supposed to be the duty of the parent and not the bystander, but sometimes parents are either unaware of the child's actions in public or are quite neglectful in application of said "more effective." If a child that is reaching the age where he knows the difference between right and wrong and the respect of the other person's property, fails to comply with stern requests to do differently, then it seems that the one being injured has the right to other action. He has the right to ask children to refrain from using smut in the presence of ladies, from crawling on a car, or from throwing rocks in that direction, and if chasing does no good then we feel that more stringent dealings are due. In this case the spanking was administered on Saturday. On the following Tuesday the father of these boys had taken no official action in the matter, but arrived on the scene to administer a beating to the spanker. The. father met with unexpected opposition. „ We do not always respect the one that engages in fisticuffs, but we do admire the one that is willing to step out and stand up for his rights. . The following day the defeated father had the student arrested for the whipping of his child. The case was finally dismissed due to the failure of the plaintiff to appear. Although we feel the accused had the right to whip these boys, the father had, by law, a good case. However, when this man does not resort to the protection of the law until he has tried to take things into his own hands and is apparently holder of the worst end of the fight, it appears as though the warrant for arrest was merely the result of a desire for revenge. _—o : A Bellingham policeman, standing on a corner, found a dollar bill laying in the gutter. Designate the street and the instructors here will have to hold classes on a downtown curbing if they wish to have an audience. o :—- PRAISES Bellingham Normal athletes cleaned up all Spring quarter Tri- Normal athletic competition in one glorious week-end. Track, tennis, and gojf being the only Tri-Normal competition scheduled for this year. ."-"'";' gt;|"he entire bevy of athletes is to be complimented. In the golf events the locals have the honor of winning the first Tri-Normal matches ever to be played. We suggest and advocate that the three schools immediately make plans to have this type of play permanently on the Spring schedule. The more events the merrier. In track there are four students who added considerably to the glory of winning by breaking Tri-Normal records. These men, Jimmy Davis, Mel Eagan, Npe\ Flowers, and Norm Bright, accomplished the height of any local track star's ambition. There is one of these men that probably stands above all, by •setting a sensational pace in breaking his own record of several years' standing. Bright has been training for several months now and has gradually •'increased his..speed until he cut practically eight seconds from his former record in the mile. At the University of Washington he set all agog with his fast time on a sloppy track, then his pace in the Ellehsburg meet Saturday, ancl to climax he ran the fast time of 4:25.4 on Waldo field Monday afternoon. This is the fastest a mile run ever has been clocked on Waldo field, and a mark that would stand strong competition with any Normal school orsmall college mark in the country. We take this opportunity to hand particular praise and yet we truthfully feel that many ; of the other participants have glory due.

Two performances were given, May 21 and 22. Under the direction of Mr. Victor H. Hoppe and. the assistant director Miss Esther. Sundquist the cast portrayed the various historical characters with unusual ability for amateur actors. • Good. Set The well-planned set constructed by the play production class furnished an excellent biackground for the entire play. Lighting and sound effects were skillfully used throughout the performance. Rich satins, dainty flowered taffeta, and heavy velvets made the costumes historically correct as well as lending an atmosphere of charm and elegance to the powdered period of history. \ James Leads John James, in the role of the hero, Peter Standish, very capably acted his characterization as did his supporting cast: Kate Pettigrew, played by Mrs. Dorothy Allen; Helen Pettigrew, Marion Bodiker; Mr. Thostle, Marshall Bacon; Tom Pettigrew, Conrad Bentzen; Lady Anne Pettigrew, Prances Benson; Mrs. Barwick, Elizabeth Korthauer; the Duchess of Devonshire, Ethel Little; Marjorie Frant, Kathleen Hill; the Ambassador, Jacob "Krieder; Miss Barrymore, Virginia Howell; Lord Stanley, Robert Robers; Major Clinton, Charles Gerold; H.

Helen Castle will teach the intermediate grades in Washougal, Doris.Thompson will teach on Wald-ron Island, arid Gertrude, Cheever will teach in Greenwood school. o SECOND GRADE ADDS TO UNIT WITH TRIP (Continued from Page One) entific excerpts and original poetry were contributed by the fourth grade. The fifth graders represented their happening in diary form. The sixth grade worked out very good reproductions of stained glass windows as well as illustrations of a child's conception of the North wind and a drawing of a castle. Book Reviews Book reviews and interesting personal experiences were published by the seventh grade. The eighth grade boys contributed their program which they presented in the "Boys' Household Assembly." The four best original cartoons which were chosen by the Current Events class of the eighth grade depicting the presidential election of 1932 with the possible issues of tariff and prohibition were sketched. Clean-up week in Bellingham is also very cloverly illustrated with drawings. o Women's Ladder Play Ends; Teams Chosen Tuesday morning at 9 o'clock the second grade pupils of the training school went to Pairhaven park to spend the morning. xEach child asked permission from his parents by individual letters which had to be signed, by the parents before he could go.

"By' JIMMY ;;SW^ABD;;V'^-; Hie expiring U. of W. Frosh tennis squad surely received a very jmld surprise last Wednesday when they confidently look the to court to clean the Vikings for the second lime this season. Hedger, Tri-Normal champ, and Houghton dropped their U opponents in the singles and Houghton and Rork took their doubles match to give the Vikings three of the six matches played. This tourney closed the season for the Viking racketeers. With two 'wins over the Mount Vernon Junior College, two from the College of Puget Sound, winning the Tri Normal first and second singles places and the doubles championship and dropping a meet and halving another with the University Frosh, the season can be praised as one of the most successful in the years that tennis has been played on the Viking courts. They came, they saw, and they conquered! Meaning Coach Carver and his golf, tennis and track teams. ..It was expected that one or two of the championships would be brought back, but three of them, well—our heartiest congratulations to all of them. Posey's vault, Blight's mile, Eagan's half-mile and Davies' hurdling records will probobly stand for some time. FOlJjt IM-NOR^ £ BETTERED IN TRACK RACES HEDGER FLASHY This column made a prediction last week that not more than five points would separate the Vikings and Cheney when the meet was over. Well, the final tally was 59-53. Also we made an error of one point in the Ellensburg score. They rolled up 19 points and we prelicted 18. Competition in the intramural baseball' league is as spirited and as close as the basketball league of last winter. The Reynolds Hall tong dropped the Kitchen Krew last week for their first defeat of the season to place the Krew, Reynolds and the Co-op in a triple tie for first place. Championship game series will probobly be played next These present day youngsters certainly take their baseball seriously. Last week the sixth grade Training school team defeated the Assumption nine 12-11 in an extra inning game. Saxon for the Normal, rolled a perfect bunt along the first base line to score the winning run. Who knows, maybe in ten years some of them will boom the horsehide out of the big league parks. ;.: And this was handed to us by one of the faculty track devotes. An Appreciation There was an element of sadness in the Bellingham Normal school's track meet with the group of athletes from Vancouver, B. C, Monday afternoon. Four men, who have represented this institution so well for three years, wore the blue and white for the last time on Monday afternoon. They have been outstanding athletes and are young men of whom the school may well be proud. Making a clean sweep of - all events, the Bellingham Vikings emerged victorious from the Tri- Normal athletic meet which was held in Ellensburg May 23. It is one of the biggest meets of the year, and the Vikings came through to win decisively in tennis, golf, and track. 24 Games Taken In one of the most brilliant exhibitions of tennis ever seen on Ellensburg courts, "Cliff" Hedger, Bellingham first man, won 24 consecutive games to take the singles crown of the Normal schools of the state of Washington. He defeated Bailey, Ellensburg first man, 6-0, 6-0, and then took Osborne, Cheney's first choice, in the same fashion. Hedger is one of the best players ever seen in Tri-Normal tennis, and will be attending Bellingham Normal again next year. "Judy" Berenstain, Bellingham No. 2 man, also displayed a brand of tennis that was hard to beat. Berenstain's steady and consistent play proved too much for his opponents, and he won the Tri-Normal second singles championship from Van Fredenberg of Cheney, 6-2, 6-1. Berenstain will also be with the Viking tennis hopes for next year. Take Doubles Hedger and Berenstain were not satisfied with winning just their singles crowns, but won the doubles championship also. In a good exhibition of team work, they defeated Osborne and Van Fredenberg of Cheney, 6-2, 6-1. They then won the finals from Barley and Ganty of Ellensburg, 6-4, 6-2. This year, golf was introduced into the Tri-Normal meet, and it proved to be a big success. Representing the Bellingham Normal were Occie Thorsen, Tony Gross and Joe Irby. The boys did very well, considering that they won the championship from Ellensburg, 5 to 4. Thorsen's score was 3 to Gerritz's 0; Gross scored 2 to Bechtold's 1; Irby scored 0 to Leonard's 3.

Baseball Men lllitt^Piiute:1 lif'A) as COLLEGE OF PUGET SOUND HIT FOR ONLY VICTORIES. V Now that the 1931 baseball season is a thing of the past, let's go back and;take a bird's-eye view: of what "Pop" Gunn and his masters of swat ihave accomplished this spring. Spring rains and bad weather handicapped the athletes very much in their pre-season practice work and they T were forced to do much of their .training indoors. Before the; actual: conference season opened, jfche, Vikings played several games with hWatcom high school and had .several practice games with other teams. . Martins Win The opening game of the season saw the Normal team defeated by a strong St. Martins aggregation 5-4. It was a very hard game for Ing Iverson, Viking hurler, to lose. The Vikings lost to a strong, aggressive team, but it also showed that they had a hitting, well-fielding squad. The Bellingham nine then crossed bats with the strong University of Washington Frosh nine and came off second best with a defeat of 11-6. The Frosh, with a formidable array of hitters and an excellent string of pitchers, were too much for the Vikings. The Normal team did some nice work at the plate but were a little weak in the pitching department. Puget Loses The College of Puget Sound came next, with Ing Iverson holding the Collegians to four hits while his mates pushed across four runs and the game. Iverson was in top form for this game, as were his mates. Then a trip south for a return game with St. Martins and again the Rangers were a little stronger than the Vikings and took the melee, 7-3. Back home again and another game with the U. of W. Frosh. The Husky Babes pushed across nearly all their runs in the first three innings of the game, but were held to three hits by Leatha, who relieved Iverson in the third. The Vikings came- back ^strong in • the seventh and ninth ot push across five markers, but were unable to overcome the large lead piled up by the visitors. Win Final ' Then another home game with the Loggers from the College of Puget Sound. Leatha started the game for the Vikings and did very well until the fourth, when the Loggers pushed over three runs to tie the score at six all. From then on Iverson. held the situation well in hand and allowed but one hit for the remainder of the game. The Vikings pounded in two runs in the sixth and one in the ninth to give them a 9-6 victory in the final game of the season. pNE'i- -OFlV ^ST\;^UCCESSFUL! SEASONS^IN; HISTORY^ E?JDS^ BtosHWlR In looking over the 1931 track season^ John Fan sees one of the best seasons that the Bellingham varsity track squad has had for some time. The Vikings had four scheduled' meets this spring. They: lost one and won the others, including the Tri-Normal meet. The first meet that the Belllrig-ham boys had was with the College of Puget Sound here on the home field. This was a close event, with the outcome depending on the last race, the mile relay, which Coach Carver's athletes won. During the meet with C. P. S. several new records were set. Norman Bright, star Viking miler, set a new record for Waldo field of 4:27, and Noel Flowers tipped the bar at twelve feet for a new unofficial record in the pole vault. The next competition that the local tracksters met was the University of Washington Frosh at Seattle. The Frosh gave the Vikings their first and only defeat of the season, getting 74 points to the home team's 47. Although Coach Carver's squad came home with the small end of the score, they made With! ths^sjsttlhg i q u a r t s df**rin£ to*a tfose^the latider^tournsmeitts; are-rapidly1 -being complete^:;-and; played off. With the exception; of the handball games, the v winners for the tennis, golf and horseshoe tourneys have been completed. Hedger Conquers. : Hedger, Tri-Normal s i n g l es champ, is resting on the top rung in the tennis division. Hedger has played very remarkable gt;all during theuentire season and deserves , a great deal of credit in maintaining his position on top for nearly the entire season. Below him are Giss-berg, Rork, Fresk, Berenstain, Stearns, McLean and Houghton. _ This year's ladder contest has been very successful if the producing of sparkling tennis stars is any criterion. Products of the ladder games won matches with the Mount Vernon Junior College, College of Puget Sound, and took the Tri- Normal singles and .doubles championships.

She h ^ been t e t i c^ defeated Ealensburg -land Cheney in the ninth annual -track meet. Bellingham made 59 points, Cheney 53i and Ellensburg 19. lt; gt; ^ Norman Bright set a new Tri- Normal record for the mile, stepping it off in 4:32.9. He broke the old record, set by himself, by a full eight seconds. Bright has done better time but was hampered by a bad cold and the poor condition of the track. Vaults 12 Feet , Noel Flowers made one of the new records when he topped the pole vault bar at 12 feet. This broke the existing record by six inches. Flowers might have done higher but was handicapped by jumping against the wind and the condition of the runway. Melvern Eagan, Bellingham half-miler, ran one of tne prettiest races of the day, when he broke the record held by Earl Jewell, former Bellingham runner, by nine-tenths of a second. Eagan covered the distance in 2:01.7 with Bob Carboneau a close second. Jim Davis, Viking hurdler, got a perfect start and ran a beautiful race, and the result was a new Tri- Normal record in the high hurdles. Davis made the distance in :16.2, breaking the old record by two-tenths of a second. Relay Lost One of the biggest upsets of the entire meet was when Cheney won the mile relay. Bellingham took the lead at the start of this race and held it until the last lap, where McNew, Cheney star, nosed "out Eagan at the finish line. In order to beat Bellingham, Cheney had to set a new record of 3:42.2, which broke the old record, held by Bellingham, by three,- seconds. Charlie Thomas, Viking sprinter, got off to several bad starts in the 100 and 220 yard dashes, but finished third in the century and second in the furlong.

What kind of a parly is this? We've heard it said in the best places that a school without football is called a convent— that may be so; but this school has been so near that point for so long that a man is as scarce as snow-balls in Satan's cellar! They have laws to preserve rare animals and trees; there should be a law against chasing the last lonesome men from the bin. Go ahead and holler, you disillusioned females—you've a right to. W.S.N.S. But let's get serious for a moment. This author feels that he is open-minded enough to discuss both sides of this brand new problem on paper without giving a biased opinion. Let's go. W.S.N.S.- . This problem facing the Normal at the present time is not a new one, its scope covering the entire' nation. The criticism of the sport is often justified, but just as often misplaced. A Viking editorial shouted "subsidization of players" last week. Prove it! This point is the major issue in the denouncement of football; it is shouted from coast to coast and printed in glaring headlines in the largest newspapers. But in scarcely a single incident can it be proved thai such is the case. Yes, players are given Work to help themselves through school. But do not students work in the Science departments. Research departments, and libraries of various schools to help inflate their pocket-books? W.S.N.S.- IT HAS BEEN SAID THAT AN EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTION CAN NO LONGER JUSTIFY ITSELF IN SPENDING THE MONEY OF THE MAJORITY FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE MINORITY. WILL YOU, KIND READER, NAME A SINGLE SPORT THAT THE MAJORITY DOES NOT PAY AND PAY AND PAY TO WITNESS? INCIDENTALLY, THIS same point of the majority for the minority might well be spiked to the plank of musical artists assemblies. W.S.N.S.- It is not the fault of the sport that it is in its present condition. Certainly you will grant us that point. 'Therefore., why., should the sport itself be forced to suffer because of high-pressure coaches and money-minded promoters? ——T-W.S.N.S. Quartette of Seattle to Present Program In Assembly May 24 The Volker string quartet of Seattle will present a recital in Tuesday's assembly, May 24. The personnel of the quartet have all been members of the Seattle Symphony orchestra. Theodore Anderson, first violinists has had extensive training both in Europe and America. A press notice bespeaking his outstanding talent is from the Swedish Tribune: ". . . An artist of refined taste, brilliant technic, a tone of gt; power and beauty . . . (he) played with the utmost ease, precision and perfection." The S e a t t l e Post-Intelligencer says: "Their playing was admirable both as to tonal quality and balance." o A. R. Lord Speaks At Faculty Forum on School Systems VIEWS EXPRESSED BY MANY PERSONS Sandberg, Anderson, and Rankin Give Varied Slants on Viking Article SUBSIDIZING CHARGED Now, let's turn the plank over and see the other side of it. It is a proverf fact that players hold out one school against another waiting for the best offer. W.S.N.S. They attend the school who hands them the best scholarship and job, and, in a great many cases, not the one with the outstanding English, History of Mathhematics department. :. Too few participate in football and are showered with the compulsory favors of the majority of students. It's hot fair to the large group of students who have no craving to participate and who care nothing for the sports. : -^.——-w.sks. • • • •' WeUy go ahead and call us a hypocrite!

R. Lord, Inspector of Schools of British Columbia. Mr. Lord described the organization and supervision of the schools of his province in a most clear and understandable way. Their system differs essentially from that of the United States in many particulars, not the least being the fact that while our system is highly localized, the system of British Columbia is extremely centralized. The Normal schools of British Columbia, located at Vancouver and at Victoria, are limited by entrance examinations to fit the teaching head of the province. The teachers of these schools are under Civil service and are placed by the Department of Education in the school and in the department as necessary. Since they are civil service employees, they receive a pension upon retirement. Mr. Lord Describes Federation Mr. Lord also described at length the organization and accomplishments of the Teacher's Federation of the province. Though this federation both a unity of the teachers and a public recognition of their work and their worth has been gained. Membership fees in the federation range from three to twelve dollars a year, depending upon the salary of the teacher. In Washington the fees are two and a half dollars. The Normal School faculty after hearing Mr. Lord's address were of the opinion that the State of Washington has much .to learn from both the British Columbia public school system as well as from the teacher's federation. Other Members Present Accompanying Mr. Lord was Professor Lemuel Robertson, head of the Department of Classics at the University of British Columbia, and Professor Arthur Austen, head of the department of Social Science in the Vancouver Normal school. .following publication in last week's Northwest Viking of articles concerning intercollegiate football, the daily newspapers in Bellingham have taken up the questions raised in the Viking and conducted a survey a-mong leading football exponents in the community. The Viking pointed out last week that 30% of the total Associated student budget went for athletics and that 50% of the athletic budget goes to intercollegiate football alone. Tree Dollars Apiece That $2228.00 was spent last fall quarter for football means that, if based on an enrollment of 750, each student pays approximately three dollars from his student body tocket for this intercollegiate sport. The Viking also showed that not more than twelve football men really profit personally from football and that the benefit to the school is not in proportion to the amount of money spent. Commenting upon recent articles in the Northwest Viking, several coaches of nearby schools have expressed their opinions of the situation in hand at the Bellingham Normal School in regard to intercollegiate football. That abolishment of football at the Bellingham Normal School will STODDARD TO FEED ALL SCHOOL PICNIC Rainbow Beach to See Festive Crowd This Afternoon; to Leave 4 P. M.

"The hash will be slung by Vaughn Howell, Doris McElmon, Erwin Leatha arid Vernon Leatha," Stoddard says.

Guest tickets are being taken care of by Nellie Cox and Elsie O'Don-nell. The tickets are to be 25 cents. Bob, Walters, general chairman, has ordered good weather and says to "bring along your bathing suit and prepare for a good time." It's Your Question—Settle It! (An Editorial) GET THIS STRAIGHT! THE VIKING is taking no sides. The question of athletics or any other school activity is the business of the Associated Students. LIKE ANY legitimate question, there are two sides, and sometimes more. Here is the question. "What must be the future of intercollegiate football in Bellingham Normal?" WHY the question? Because: Football without success costs much money. Football without success benefits little and few. Football with success costs much more money. Football with success benefits much and many. COULD intercollegiate football in a college and town of this size be made a real asset to the students and the school if more money were spent? or— WOULD it be better to adopt a complete intramural program and benefit more students? —R. W. C. BUTLER IS MADE LEAD TEACHERS, STUDENTS EXPRESS OPINIONS ON FOOTBALL FUTURE Several faculty members and students have been interviewed by the Northwest Viking to ascertain the majority opinion of the school on the football question. The Viking has made arrangements to get an outline of the intramural policy of Reed College, mentioned by Miss Plympton, arid hopes to be able to publish it next week.—Ed. ties," says Dean Marquis. He did not give a direct opinion as to the abolishment of intercollegiate football, but since the question has been raised, he strongly urges unbiased research in the matter.

Through the use of this kind of a program, sports are open to every one in school and a different kind of spirit from that manifested in intercollegiate sport is shown by all students. Other,, sports beside football are adaptable to this sort of program."

The idea of culture changes perhaps, with the age and also with a person's background and environment. We think we know what culture is and are able to point out evidence of culture in persons of our acquaintance. But as for defining culture, we find it almost as hard .as "personality." CULTURE, according to the American Association for Adult Education is defined with five points. They are: openness of mind, objectiveness of attitude, a sensitive appreciation of human values, an original point of view or philosophy of life, and a development of the potentialities of the human life. S TUDENT AND CHOOL DEPRESSION il¥LlSTEl-- (By George) THERE ARISES even in connection with the college man the question of unemployment and depression. Jobs are harder to find, fewer men are being employed and when they are, preference is given to older men. IN T H E U. S. colleges it is estimated that 5 0% of the male students are partly self-supporting and 15 to 25 % entirely earn their expenses. This figure is thought even larger in Bellingham Normal. MANY AMERICAN colleges maintain an employment bureau doing the work largely handled by the athletic coach here, and because of the inability to procure jobs for students there has arisen a reaction against working students. The. "Crimson" Harvard undergraduate publication advises that working students be barred from colleges because "—they lose many of the most essential benefits of a college education." - SUCH A practice would be utterly impossible in this school no matter how ideally desirable it might be not to have to earn one's way while attending school. Unless conditions improve, or college expenses are reduced, however, great clianges in the number and proportion of students may be evident next fall. IT IS IN deference to the general financial condition that the Board of Control may be required to make reductions in the cost of athletics and "other activities with proportionate curtailing of these activities. Whatever cuts may be made, it is hoped that it will be only temporary and that the students will accept them with good sportsmanship as necessary limitations and not as superimposed legislation. ^rtMrtflftWWMMWWaVWWVWWWMW Student Opinion I am a football player with three years experience on the Viking Varsity. I would like to have my little say. I don't believe the football players of the Normal have been such terrible fellows. Last winter when the Men's Club room had to be taken care of the football men stepped in arid cleaned it up. I think you will find a few football players back of most of the forward movements in the Normal. ' As far as scholarship is concerned football players are in the same boats as preachers' sons. Mr. Carver keeps at us fellows all the time about our studies. None of my other teachers spurs me on to better work in other, departments. I started playing football with Cole, Sheltbn, Erickson; Miller, Priem, Flowers, Mollan, Sherman, Moe, Wor- Students To Hear History Of State It has been variously noted of late that Marvin Dickson has again taken to winter flannels and fur-lined shoe laces..: It seems that he is suffering from a more or less severe case of the chills brought on, undoubtedly, by the little accordion girl who has a very icy way with ex-admirers. And here comes mine gobt friendt, "Doc" Fiala, who would like it broadcast here and now that she was perfectly sober and in absolutely good company on last Campus day, despite all rumors to the contrary. * * * * * Quite the most humorous spectacle of the week was observing our aesthetic janitor, Mr.-Gwin, taking in last Tuesday's piano recital while sprawled out in the typical "gay 90's" art pose with a wrapt expression on his pan and his head pillowed in John Christy's lap in one corner of the auditorium. * * * • « Echoes of a certain party last week-end—little Jby-cie Pfueller (you know, "p" as in pfish, or pfun or pford) calling out in the stilly lastriess of the night— "Oh, Da-a-av-vid, my hot water bottle's all cold; just fancy Vernie Leatha schottishing with "Sam" Carver; Naomi Watson so obligingly staying at camp to cook the "beans, beans, and more beans"—huh! there musta been a reason; June Welch falling off the water-wagon or maybe it was the village fire-truck; Gordie Leen turning up hours late after being lost (?) in the vast recesses of Church Mountain; picture, if you can, Henry Banner in simply ravishing blue gingham pajamas, performing a square dance at 2 a. m. * * * * * Alice Wampler confesses into the welcoming ear of Junior Dornblut that "she could certainly go for a certain bell-hop." * * * * * Which, in turn, reminds me to announce that the Hawley cabs still hold a powerful attraction for Charlotte Jones—oh, yes, yes—that's been going on for quite some time, you know! Dorothy Fay Gould Will Historical Pictures Show A history of the State of Washington will be presented in assembly, Friday, May 27, by Dorothy Fay Gould of Seattle. Features of Mrs. Gould's lecture will be the showing of historical slides, and of unusual pictures of the Northwest sent to her by Mr. Bert Huntoon of Bellingham. Mr. Archie Shiels, of this city, has also helped her in the collection of rare materials. Each state has been asked to collect one hundred slides covering its history—these slides to be put on file at Washington, -D. C, in the office of the Colonial Dames of America. As chairman of the Patriotic Service Committee1 of the Washington State Society of Colonial Dames of America, Mrs. Gould has made it possible for Normal students to see this valuable collection of Washington's historical slides. The purpose of the complete set of pictures is to interest the coming generation in the. history of its state. Mrs. Gould says, "As prospective teachers, students of the Bellingham State Normal school are the very ones to caiyy .the message." Dorothy Fay Gould is the wife of Mr. Carl Gould, Seattle architect, who had charge of the construction of the Bellingham State Normal school library building. lrmaays Jack Burn ...1„.......

These above all have their pictures in the Klipsun. Stickney graduated from the four year course. Five others graduated and I think all of them are now teaching. Shelton, and Moe graduate this spring and both expect to teach. Brunstad transferred to W. S. C. and is now working on his Masters Degree. Voris played two years at Normal and is now working for his degree at Whitman. Sherman expects to finish at Bellingham and teach. One fellow had to quit because of poor health and another quit school because of trouble over which he had no control. And that takes in all of them but myself and I expect to graduate from the three year course this spring and teach next year. I believe that is a pretty fair and consistent record. I believe if some of these objectors including R. W. C. had a little more school spirit it wouldn't hurt them. I don't think he is so much interested in intramural athletics as I have never seen him take any part in them. Why can't we have intercollegiate athletics and inter-mural as well? What is the use of crabbing about the other fellows being unfair? None of the players are crying about it. We have lost some games but we have tried much harder to win them than some people I know. Mr. Chapman says we are criticized because we can not win games and because we have a low athletic rating. Is winning absolutely necessary? And why should we have a low athletic rating when we play according to the rule and the spirit? Did Mr. Chapman see our last Homecoming Game? I believe El-lensburg respected us for that game even if I do say so. We did win a very hard baseball game from a good team in the last two weeks and the Viking did not carry a word about it. Much Mr. Chapman's paper cares whether we win or not. Let's have more school spirit.

She found the new Department of Education library at the University of Chicago especially interesting. In Washington, D. C, her next stop, Miss Wilson visited many of the public buildings and places of interest, among which were the Congressional library, the new Shakespeare library and the National Education association headquarters. The first country in Europe that she will tour is Spain. Prom Gibraltar she will go to a few Italian coast cities. She will not tour Italy as she has been there on previous trips. Prom here she will sail for Alexandria, making only short stops at a few towns in North Africa. After seeing Cairo, Luxor and Palestine, she will go to Istanbul (Constantinople) then to Greece, the Slavic countries, Germany.and Prance. Prom London she.will sail to Quebec.

Jimmie Davis keep his present grasp on TrirNormal hurdle records?... These are some of the many thoughts racing around the Bellingham Normal campus in regard to the Tri-Normal Track and Field meet at Cheney this week-end. ——o—o The Viking diamond aces took one on the chin last Saturday when a squad of C. P. S. Loggers took the locals into camp in a rather ragged game of ball on Waldo field... This was the second engagement of the two teams, the Vikings; having shellacked the Tacoma boys on their diamond in the first, battle. TRI-NORMAL MEET l i l N E Y T O S E E Meet Slated as Toss-up Between Vikings and Savages; :' Will be Close ROUNDY IS CHENEY STAR On the same, day that the baseball nines fought it out a squad of racket wielders f rom Sehome chalked up a decisive win over the C; P. S. tennis, lads wijeh they.took three of the fiye=Lsmgli^^and: both doubles from thefmv^defs. "Big Ben" Eastman of Stanford University gave the fans a thrill at an indoor meet at Fresno, Cal., last Saturday night when he succeeded in closing up a gap of forty yards, left hnn by one of bis,team mates in the mile relay, down to a mere eight yards at the finish of his 440-yards of the race... He ran the anchor position fortius team. "••'• !• o—CK-— '., Percy Williams the Canadian and Olympic games sprint act is training under, the supervision of Coach Hec Edmundson at the University of Washington in preparation for lt;§iyjjfcpic tryoutssooh to be held at 'Seattle. Williams is considered one of the best sprint men of today. Way back when the depression was unheard of our own little Walt Schlilaty set a district record in the 100-yard dash when he was pulling for the Everett Seagulls... Last weekend at the district meet of the high school athletes a lad from Whatcom, Fife, narrowly set up a new one when he tied Schlilaty's mark of 10.1 in the century to take first place in the event. The New York Giants just missed establishing a hew^ shut-out record when they recently went 40 innings without allowing a run. One more would have been a record but the Giants met the Cleveland Indians and the former Bellingham baseball ace, Earl Averill, smacked out a homer. —-o—v -— This should be longer but—what the heck, a man must live. . o TENNIS PLAYERS WIN IN MATCH SATURDAY Winning five out of seven matches against the College of Puget Sound, the Carver net stars won their second match of the season with this school here last Saturday afternoon on the Normal courts. In the singles, Piety (C. P S . ) beat Houghton, 6-3, 6-4; Wahl (N) beat Teets, 6-1, 6-4; Innis (C. P. S.) beat Lahtonen, 9-7, 3-6, 6-4; Fisher (N) defeated Norman, 6-3, 6-3, and Bond CN) turned back Monstad, 6-4, 6-3.. In the doubles, Houghton and Wahl defeated Piety and Teets, 6-2, 6-3, while Fisher and Bond won from Innis and Norman, 9-7, 4-6, 6-3. At least two or three tri-normal records will be cracked to smithereens tomorrow at the .Tri-Normal meet at Cheney. If past records are an indication,-the big battle will be between Cheney and Bellingham. Coach Carvtr gives them about even chances to win. Roundy, Cheney weight man, is their big threat, and is probably due tc be high point man of the tournament. His shot put, discus, and javelin work puts him in a class by himself. VanOver will throw a scare into him, however, and Shelton, also of Bellingham, has been doing very good work with the javelin recently. In Cheney's recent meet with Whitman, Cannon, Cheney sprint flash, made .9.9 in the hundred. That boy is going to make Schlilaty, Bellingham ace, work, but with his steady improvement he is bound to be right up in front. Lou Lovegren has Sam Carver banking on him for a sure first in the two mile. His spectacular win in the University Frosh meet makes him a winner. Time trials give him the edge over all opponents. Pole vault events will be led by Davy Jones of Bellingham, whose work this season has excelled anything shown by either Ellensburg or Cheney. Johnny Gable is conceded five points in the broad jump by dope-sters, and is slated to make a new high mark for this event. Johnny has been improving all season, and will probably exceed his own jump tomorrow. Carver is putting his trust in the hurdle events in a lad named Davis, whose consistently speedy work marks him as a winner in both the low and high events. Johnny Stiger has been switched to the half mile and will run it with Becken tomorrow. Carver is hoping both of them will be in the first three to cross the tape. If Stiger gets a good starting position he may show us a few tricks. Cheney and Bellingham are going to fight it out "neck and neck", and undoubtedly, they will not be ten points apart when the final score is checked. Fourteen Bellingham men are making the trip. They are Shelton, Lovegren, Duyff, Davis, Gable, Stiger, Schlilaty, Wasley, Johanesen, Thomas, VanOver, Michelson, Beck-en, and Jones. Green Speeders Defeat Yellows Girls' Speedball Teams Clash in - . Hard Fought Battle The girls' Green speedball team won a decided victory over the Yellow team Monday in a hard-fought game. In the first three quarters the Yellows managed to keep ahead three points, but the Green forwards proved too much for their opponents. The last quarter ended with the score 15 to 12 in favor of the Greens, thus ending a well-fought battle. The Yellow team was composed of Elva Pilquist, manager, June Mc- .Lead, Marie Thompson, Loraine Shephard, Mary Tarbox, Elizabeth Schuehle, Inez Williams, Norma Wirsing, Genevieve Peters, Janet McArthur, Alice Wampler, Dorothy Top. Members of the Green team are: Bertha McFayden, manager, Dorothy Isaacs, Donna Aisted, Theona Flick, Winnie De Witt, Helen Howell, Marg Davis, Frances Harris, Cathryn Rosenquist, Ethel Jacobsen, Marg Allen, Dorothy Price, Mayme Mcintosh. o FROSK BLANK VIKING DIAMOND SQUAD 7-0 BYttmiOGGERS IN RETURN GAME Loggersj.; Get Sixteen Safe Bingles of Normal PitcKers; Making I T Runs COOK IS H E A V Y HITTER Frosh Hurler Holds Locals Four Hits in Tussle to Garnering nine hits and scoring on seven of them gave the U. of W. Frosh baseball nine a decisive win, 7-0, over the Viking forces Wednesday afternoon on the Waldo diamond. Enquist, ace hurler of the Frosh squad, pitched a tight game, allowing the Viking squad but four well scattered hits. Starring among hitters was Daws, frosh catcher who swatted out 3 safe hits in five times to the plate. Campbell, Francisco, Cook, and Abbott tallied the four hits the Vikings received but lack of further hitting power failed to drive the boys home for runs. Leatha started the tussle but was relieved by Loomis in the third frame. Flint caught for both hurl-' ers.

D. See and made in Brooklyn in 1888: 50 yards 7 1-5 seconds; 80 yards 10 4-5 seconds; 100 yards 13 3-5 seconds. With one of the peppiest teams seen here this year, the College of Puget Sound paid the Vikings a visit last Saturday and escaped witji the long end of the 11 to 4 score. The game evened the series as the Vikings hold a previous win over the Loggers earlier in the season. The Vikings played a listless game throughout. They showed just the reversal of form that they produced when they beat St. Martins the week before. They were able to scratch seven hits off the chucking of Bob Masterson, two of them going to "Cooky" Cook, and a "fluke" triple by Campbell in the ninth inning. Vikings Score in Fourth The Normalites produced their first run in the fourth inning when Cook drove Smith in with a double. They scored two more in the eighth, this time Macomber and Zwaschka crossing the platter. Their last tally came in the ninth when Campbell encircled the diamond. The Loggers hit Loomis at will before he retired in favor of Leatha. They scored five runs in the second inning, making three hits and a number of errors count. Sand-berg's men scored one run in both the fifth and sixth and two in each the seventh and ninth. , Loggers Get 16 Hits The Collegians hit everything the two Normal pitchers had to offer, getting sixteen safe bingles in all. Woodward, Ennis, and Gagnon each hit safely twice, while Steling gathered three hits. Masterson starred at the bat as well as doing a master's job in the box. He pounded out two hits, one o fthem going for a double. Scores— R H C P.

The dance will begin at 9:00 o'clock, and the music will be furnished by Jay Curtis and his ten-piece orchestra. All graduates and other Normal students will receive tickets for the dance at the luncheon Saturday noon. All present students attending Normal will be admitted on presenting their student activity cards. The entire faculty is invited to attend and help welcome the graduates. According to L. A. Kib-be, who has been in charge of sending out invitations, the largest gathering in the history of the school is expected. An intermission number in the form of a tap-dance by Barbara Goff and "Hurley Boggess has been arranger by the committee. They will be accompanied by John Miller. The arrangements for the dance were made by the following committee, under the chairmanship of Jerry Jacobsen: Mon Orloff, Tony Zambas, Lois Aubert, Marian Hay-don, Martha Lou Pulver, Peggy Poster, Ruth Pugh, Margaret Osier, Margaret Morse, and Bob Millikan. Pep Serpentine Features Noise American Legion Band To March; Floats Are Innovation For Evening Rally Instructor At Normal Studies In New York "Miss Kangley finds her work in Columbia university extremely interesting and she is thoroughly enjoying it", states Miss Anna Ullin, of the English department. Lucy Kangley, who is a teacher in the English department here, is attending Columbia university this year as a result of winning a fellowship. She will be in New York until May, completing the year at the university. "Miss Kangley is working extensively with Joseph Wood Krutch, the critic, and also with Robert Frost, famous poet', says Miss Ullin. "Bring every instrument for making noise that you can beg, borrow, or . . . and be prepared to yell louder than you ever have before," directs Ladd Shangle general chairman of the 1935 Homecoming festivities, in anticipation of the serpentine and rally scheduled for this evening. Led by yell leaders Kenneth Wickstrom and Severn Koski, the students will serpentine through the business district and then hold their rally at the intersection of Cornwall and Holly streets. A new feature of the serpentine will be the addition of floats decorated by the organized houses. The line will be led by the American Legion drum and bugle corps and will include a sound truck and the pep band. The line of march will be down Holly to Cornwall, up Cornwall to Magnolia and back up Cornwall to Holly where the procession will form a circle and hold the rally. The program there will include school songs and yells as well as more music from the bands. Students will then return to the school for the bonfire. 'Pomeroy's Pass' Play Chosen By Workshop; Tryout For Cast Soon "Pomeroy's Pass", a comedy by Clare Kummer, is the production selected to be given by the play workshop during the first week of the winter quarter. Like "Three- Cornered Moon", the play will be given in penthouse style with the audience seated on all four, sides. For this reason the play will probably be shown in the school music room. Although a definite date has not yet been set, tryouts for the cast will be held some time next week. For those who are interested in trying out, a notice will be posted on the drama bulletin board in the main hall. 1935 Vikings With a record of three victories, three defeats, and one tie, the Vikings will take the field tomorrow in an attempt to make it four wins at Ellensburg's expense. Injuries eliminated Frender and Reischman, low grades took Tooley and Nagrodski from the eligible list, and Werner has dropped school. The team, reading from left to right: Top row—Guglomo, Chorvat, Pence, Willis, Thygeson Nagrodski Frender, Cline, Tooley, Reischman, Smith, Dzurick, Gall, Mickle, and Coach Lappenbusch. Kneeling—Krueger, Soukup, Belcher, Popovich, Whalen, Wahl, Young, Werner, Morris, Kvinsland, Holtzheimer and Miller.

Swedish Educator Visitor at Normal; Attends Luncheon Member of Parliament Studying Progressive Education (Continued on Page Six) Corsages and What They Mean to Us; Opinions Given by Well-known Students With all campus conversations the following leaders were heard to their appropriatenss at school DOLLY ANDERSON, president of Houses Sprucing For Homecoming Nope, the organized houses are not trying to rush the Christmas season. Look closer. Ahhhhh! a light. They're decorated for the gayest time on the hill-top calendar. Yes siree, you've guessed it. All the ' houses are sprucing up for Homecoming. The presidents of these houses decided that they would, the same as in former years, brighten up the domiciles with the traditional crepe paper and goal posts. In addition to all this annual splendor, many of the houses will enter floats in the rally scheduled for this evening. ..Kenny Wickstrom, chairman of the house committee, says that banners will be awarded to the house displaying the best decorations and the house exhibiting the best float. centering about the humble gardenia making definite statements in regard program dances. Women's League: I think that the matter of corsages is entirely a, matter of taste and finances. A lellow can show his appreciation at being invited in numerous other ways. However, corsages are a source of joy to any girl, and if a man can send one, be it ever so small, he has added a great deal to the success of the evening. BILL FRENDER, president of the W club: Some people expect everything for nothing! If a man accepts a girl's invitation to an informal he should plan to pay for transportation and also a corsage if he can afford it. HELEN SCOTT, president of Edens hall: Why shouldn't things be fifty-fifty? So. far they've been rather one-sided the women sponsoring the majority of the affairs. Perhaps one Tolo dance a year could be arranged and, the girls take full responsibility for the finances. . Men should remember that courtesy and chivalry are still appreciated by women. (continued on Page Six) Representing a Swedish commission on education, Dr. Oscar Ols-son, a teacher of Swedish literature in the Normal college at Linkop-ing, Sweden, visited Bellingham Normal last Tuesday. The commission is sending Dr. Olsson to the United States to study progressive education. Besides being an educator, he has been a member of the Swedish parliament since 1913. During his stay here, the delegate paid a visit to the library and the training school. After attending the student assembly Tuesday, he was guest at the luncheon given at Edens hall in honor of Miss Olga Steeb. In addressing students and faculty members at the luncheon Olsson reviewed his chief interest, adult education. He commented that in Sweden adult education has been developed so that men may make a better living, while in America the function of adult education is to enable men to live a better life. o Weythman Instructs . Sport Enthusiasts On Skiing Fundamentals Miss Ruth Weythman, chairman of the Physical Education department, will be one of the instructors of a newly organized ski course at the YMCA, Secretary Milt Orphan announces. The classes will open Thursday November 14, at 7:30 p. m., and will continue weekly for three months. Other instructors will be members of the Mount Baker Ski club. The course covers the fundamentals of skiing or work corresponding to "ground work" in flying. o Shop Window Displays Give Homecoming Idea "Have you seen the cartoons?" is the question which is going from student to student. Under auspices of the American Legion and with the aid of Wesley Randrup and his committee several prominent show windows about town are displaying Homecoming posters. A descriptive cartoon is in the windows of the Standard Auto garage, across from the Leopold hotel, another at Newberry's and the third at Kress's. There are also some examples, of the conditions of the oncoming game, in the windows of Ji d.r Penney*s and Wilson's Floral shop.-.. -. • ' , ..,-„- ..-v ..••• • -}J ••• Coaches and Prexy To Talk at Bonfire Kibbe Also To Speak When Fire Is Lighted Friday Night When the Hoineccming bonfire is lighted this evening at 8:00 after the rally, featured speakers will be Coach Charles Lappenbusch, Bellingham; Coach Leo Nicholson, El-lensburg; President C.

HELLO, E V E R Y B O D Y! And we only hope that you will get as much enjoyment out of participating in this celebration in your honor as we have gotten preparing for and anticipating SU Up and Take Notice! Many changes have taken place about the school Which we, as present students take entirely for granted. Every day we sit amid the quiet beauty of the immense, nigh-ceilinged reference room of our modern, new library, surrounded by thousands of valuable books and think nothing of it. We check out books, under dip efficient reserve system never realizing that we have at our disposal one of the finest, most beautiful libraries on the Pacific coast. We do not stop to consider the years of planning and figuring it required to perfect the infinite details which go to make up the symmetry of the whole. Per- Eaps if we had been obliged to spend hours of study in the little, crowded, stuffy library room which are now serving as class rooms, we might appreciate and respect more our privilege Now, as you probably already know, another addition is about to go under construction on the campus, a Physical Education building. The new building is to be constructed on the same general plan of architecture as the library and promises to be equally aa attractive and convenient as the library. We owe a great deal to President Fisher for this achievement, for it was through his earnest and persistent efforts that they, his plans, are now becoming realized. Undergraduates, Attention! Undergraduates! As you gaze in awe and humble admiration at the noble and glorified physiognomies of our successful school teachers you may be encouraged to know that between 750 and 1,000 students of this school have been placed during the past five years. So carry on, freshmen, carry on. THE AVALON PRESENTS: Starting Saturday for four days "This is the Life," with little Jane (Ginger) Withers and John McGuire, a fine little comedy.

Periodical Parade By Marian Peterson "Can You Prove Who You Are?" is the thought-provoking title of an article by John E. Lodge in the December POPULAR SCIENCE. It is a discussion of the means of identifying criminals by finger, foot, and eyeprints.

LETTER FROM AN AD Dear Student: Listen to the weeping and wailing of a poor little neglected ad. I have been treated like a poor relation who has been overworked by a rich family. I have been working for you ever since this paper was started and what do I get? Nothing, absolutely nothing. I have contributed to this paper from the first issue. Not a paper has gone out unless I was there. I was what made the paper possible, I paid for it, I gave it my moral support I filled the blank spaces and I gave good advice which was not followed. Don't you think that the only fair thing to do in this case is to pay some attention to me? I can be of great use to you if you will only read me. I can give you bargains in food. Show you where to go and how to get there. I can tell you what to play and how. I can give you prompt nd courteous attention. I can save you money and what is more important keep your school paper on a paying basis allowing it to give you efficient service throughout the school year. My boss has backed me with his money in the hope that I will not only be of use to your paper but to! you personally. Don't look thru me. or around me; look at me and read] me thoroughly—then buy from my boss. Look at me today and every day. See if I haven't got everything you want. If I haven't, tell some merchant in town and perhaps he will hire me and give me a new lease on life. Homecoming! In case anyone doesn't know the meaning of the word Homecoming, we might define it as something we look forward to for a whole year and think about for a whole year afterward. Homecoming is that time on the celendar when everyone (yes, even President Fisher) raises the region under the sod (the word has been banned from the Wiking wocabulary) and puts the desired props under it. Keep Posted Yours hopefully, AN AD. A hint about clothes for Homecoming social festivities. . . The Friday recreation hour will be the usual informal fun gathering. Wear ordinary sport clothes, as you have always done, and come for a good time. The dance Saturday night is strictly informal. Sports clothes are very, much the correct thing, but informal ankle length dresses are also right. At the luncheon Saturday, the same statements hold true. Wear your better sports clothes and you can be comfortably sure you're doing the right thing. Friendliness Yearned For Because "Welcome" is printed and prominently displayed here and there does not mean grads will take it all for granted. It is our privilege to show them by action and pei-sonal word that we really mean it. They will appreciate our attention. See Dack We have beautiful shrubbery on the campus and would appreciate eveiyone's refraining from breaking off branches or anticipating the usual autumnal phenomenon of plucking leaves, twigs, and berries from the trees. See George A. Dack, head gardener for more complete details. Although we are grateful that you read the Viking, remember that teachers request 50 minutes of your time—even on Friday afternoons. If you've read this far during a class period, please put your Viking away until the end of the hour. .

It is called "Chinese Paintings' and is illustrated with types of pictures. Mr. Binyon explains that the Chinese do not paint the outward appearance of an object but the spirit of it—a wave is just a rolling line that suggests water. From earliest times Chinese have found beauty in the humblest occupations as Mr. Binyon shows by a print of a boy herding buffalo. * * * * * The SCD3NTTFIC MONTHLY for November presents a discourse on archaeology and archeologists entitled "The World Digs Up Its Past," by Professor Henry Rushton Fairclough.

Ancient statues are carefully restored so that they may stand in museums all over the world and be gazed upon by gawking tourists.

For 12 years he has planned for this school and has worked to make his plans materialize. The library, reputedly one of the most beautiful modern building in the Northwest, is a result of his efforts. The Physical Education building, soon to be under construction, is still another of his achievements President Fisher Extends Greetings With students and faculty planning and working in a splendid spirit of cooperation, I am sure that the twelfth annual Homecoming Day will be appropriately and successfully observed. Homecoming Day has become an established tradition which we regard as essential to pur life and purpose. Old students and new students" mingle together on this day in appreciative expression to the school to which they gladly give their loyalty and devotion. Members of the faculty are especially interested in Homecoming Day because of the opportunity that comes to them to be associated with students in activities that are not of the classroom and because they are happy to greet students who are making good in the work of the world. Through the whole-hearted way that students and members of the faculty will enter into the activities of the day there will come a real contribution to the life of the school. We have a hearty welcome for the representatives of the Normal School at Ellensburg because of our happy relations as sister schools of the State of Washington and because we believe that this association of students and teachers who share in a common purpose in similar schools is to our mutual advantage. We are looking forward to a fine game of football worthy of our respect for each other, and we hope that the score will be reversed from that of recent years. C. H.

The game was played in Cheney Saturday afternoon, before a large Homecoming crowd. An interested spectator was Governor Clarence D. Martin, a Cheney alumnus. The Cheney machine gained yardage almost at will and kept the Viking running attack well bottled up. Bellingham's best scoring attempt came early in the third quarter when passes from Boggess to Smith were complete to the Savage's 8-yard line. Gall, fullback, cracked the line three times, but the Cheney forward wall held and took the ball on their three-yard line. Anderson Scores The first quarter ended scoreless, but on the first play in the second, Bert Anderson, Savage star fullback, crashed the line for the first Cheney score. The ball was placed in scoring position after a steady power drive from the Cheney 45, with Anderson and Pierce leading the way. Barnes' kick was wide and the ball on their three-yard line. Cheney's second touchdown came midway in the fourth with Pierce scoring on an end run from the Viking's six. Kittel, Cheney end, paved the way for the score by intercepting a Bellingham pass on the Viking 27. Barnes kicked goal and the half ended 6 to 0. J Anderson Scores Again With one-half minute to play, and Bellingham expecting the Savages to play defensive ball, the Viking line momentarily weakened. Anderson found a hole through center and raced 30 yards to the pay dirt without a hand touching him. Barnes again kicked goal and the game ended 20 to 0. The kicking of Boggess and Krueger was phenomenal, Boggess getting off two 60-yard punts. Ullin played practically the whole game and looked good on defense. Smith, who recently recovered from an illness, caught several nice passes. Savages Better Team Outside of Smith, the Vikings were in splendid shape but were beaten by a better team. Werner, tackle, suffered a leg injury in the game, but is expected to be in shape for Saturday's game. Coach Lappenbusch, Viking mentor, used his entire squad of 26 men in the game, while the Cheney coach. Red Reese, used only seven substitutes. The game was remarkably free from penalties. Officials were. Carl Quackenbush, referee; Milt Benjamin, umpire; and Lefty Hoagland, head linesman, all of Spokane. Oregon State Normal Conflict Is Cause of Change That Normal Vikings will not tangle with the U.S.S. New Mexico football squad was revealed by Coach Chuck Luppenbusch today. This will cut one game from the Normal's schedule for the football season. The coach's reason for eliminating this game from the schedule, Is that it would make three successive games in three weeks, thus taking chances on tiring or injuring some of the players. Another reason for cutting it is that gate receipts would not be enough to offset the cost of bringing the Navy team to Bellingham, as the battleship may not be in the harbor on the date of the game. If this game is taken from the schedule, the Vikings will play Oregon Normal, here, on Thanksgiving day. Lineup For Homecoming Game BELLINGHAM No. Wt. Pos.

Holl is playing his third year for the Wildcats and is reputed to be the flashiest back Nickelson has ever developed. Holl wears jersey number 27, and Lappenbusch will have his men ready to bottle up the shifty halfback before he gets in the open. Other starts on the Nickelson team will be Captain Walt Hakola, center. Hakola is a stone-wall on defense and stands head and shoulders above the rest of his teammates. Warren Thurston, a stocky guard, plays a steady game at left guard. Taylor, quarterback, is the high scorer on the Ellensburg squad. Taylor also does the kicking and has a remarkable average of 39 yards for the season. The rest of the backfield will include Joe Smoke, fullback, who played at St. Martin's last year, and Carey, a 170 pound blocking half. WAA's membership campaign was climaxed by an initiation tea Wednesday at 4 in the Blue room of Edens hall. Joyce Jansen was general chairman of the tea. New members are: Prances Tru-ax, Mary Knibbs, Edith Lingbloom, Hazel Jackson, Helen Lundquist, Eunice Buck, Theodine Losvar.

Grid Heroes On Mythical Squad 'Knights of Picskin' Include Ford, Anderson, Staggs, Linstead, Bowman, Shelton Krew Defeated By Bartons Hall Co-op Leads Intramural League After Taking Hot Shots In 33-12 Game Looking It Over "When football was football and men were men"— The Washington State Normal school turned out some never-to-be-forgotten players in the good old days. Today these grid heroes are scattered in various parts of the country, holding responsible positions and remembering now and then of their football days at the old Alma Mater. Following are a few of these "Knights of the Pigskin" who would make a noble mythical football squad: At center, Oscar Lindstead, a capable lad, now at the University bookstore in Seattle; Sam Ford, guard, managing the Normal Co-op; Dewey Bowman, guard, holds a teaching job at Wickersham; Prank Bortsch, who is in the post office at Blaine, tackle. Another tackle, Bill Wanamaker, is working in a gas station in Tacoma. Ends are "Swede" Anderson, coach at Whatcom High in Bellingham, and Lawrence Kep-linger, a lawyer at Lynden. In the backfield are Charles Erickson, principal at Roosevelt grade school in Arlington, who held down the fullback position. "Dutch" Wilder, left half, is principal of the Ellensburg Junior high; Harold Shelton, right half, who is teaching at Ferndale. The quarterback position is held by Boyd Staggs, now managing the athletic department at Sears-Roebuck store.

Reischman and Bowe were outstanding for the Barton team scoring 12 and 11 points. Hager was high point for the Kitchen Krew scoring 5 points. Soukup went out on personal fouls in the last quarter after scoring three points. In the final game, the Co-op took a rather easy game from the scrappy Hot-shots by a 33 to 12 score. Gregg lived up to his reputation of being a high-point man by scoring 13 points which was high for both the games of the evening. Smith and Jim Moscrip ran up 14 points between them. Alexander was high for the losers with 6 points. This victory put the Co-op in the lead for the intramural race.

Pop Miller heading for Edens hall as soon as the bus stopped. . . . Leo Nickelson scouting the game and saying that Cheney played way over their heads. I think he meant over our h e a d s . . . . The hero of the trip being "Poor Old Dan". And then there was the absent minded professor who flunked the football player and passed the hard working student. After taking a couple of beatings, Alymer Bright, manager of the Edwards hall intramural bunch, is looking for a brand new team. Alymer explained that he wasn't dissatisfied with his present team, but he would like some players who wouldn't stumble on the foul line and hurt themselves. With the WAA To have this year's homecoming a complete success we should see some of our old friends, the grads . . . former campus leaders, Pat Allan, Jim Stoddard, Johnny Lensrud, Bagley, Brinkman, Flowers, and Nelson. Prominent ladies of past years: Vaughan Howell? Julia Christianson, Harriett Rickerson, Sammy Carver, Mary Fisher and the former Donna Mae Aisted, will be welcomed with open arms to our festivities. The Old Grad's Prayer: Dear Lord, it's been six years since I have attended the good old Normal, but each year I take three days off to go to the Homecoming affair. Every year the chairman has promised a "bigger and better Homecoming", and- each year I believed and was disappointed. No, I wasn't disappointed in the rec hour, bon fire, or dance, but there was always something missing. WE NEVER WON THE FOOTBALL GAME. Now if everything else is a flop, please just let us win the game and I can be contented. Amen. Homecoming is in the air. When you come to town you'll really know that this year's affair is truly bigger and better than . Why, just ask Shangle and he will tell you himself. CONSTITUTION COMMITTEE The cry of "Let us change with the Era" emanates from all WAA members. The Women's Athletic Association council refuses to become antiquated; Hazel Oie and her committee of Marion Price, Mary Knibbs, Dolly Anderson, and Florence Lund, are going to polish the rusty hinges of the old WAA constitution. INITIATION We just couldn't wait. Original plans for having the WAA initiation in the new P.E. building across the way had to be modified.

This year, through our column we have the privilege of reaching all of you as we could never hope to do individually. * * * * * To acquaint you with our 1935 set-up let us introduce our officers and a few of the committee chairmen. First of all, our very delightful advisor, Miss Linda Countryman. She may not have been advisor when you were a Women's Leaguer, but you probably knew her as Home Economics instructor, and an exceptional person. * * * * * Dolly Anderson, our president, a senior, is an inspiring leader, and is probably acquainted with many of you. You know she has reached the top as her name resides in the magic Blue Book. * * » * * Blanche Pearce, vice-president, has been active in International Relations and Y.W.C.A. Blanche is a junior, and one of the finest vice-presidents ever in office. * * * * * Esther Gius, our attractive secretary, is also a junior, and a Reserve Room librarian. She was originally from CPS, and is a Tacoma girl. ***** Helen Lewis, treasurer, is interested in Blue Triangle and WAA. She is a Seattle girl, in fact, one of the "400" (thousand.) -„•: * * * * Our successful teas, particularly the Fall Fashion tea, have been directed by Doris Condogeorge, Fellowship chaiman. Our social events, chiefly the Kid Party and the recent Informal, reached unusual heights under Mary Jane Moer-geli's direction. ***** Helen Monson, room service chairman, has enhanced our Women's League room by placing stationery, pens, and ink there, and you will find our own Reader's Digest at your disposal. ***** Beverly Holiday, in charge of pub-icity, is full of original ideas for an attractive bulletin board, posters and a revision of the Self Starter. ***** We again urge you all to notice the green box in the Women's League room oh which you will find "We Ladies" engraved in gold.

Children Make Use of Library No Special Need To' Emphasize National Book Week Here, Says Librarian "Reading is Fun" will be the slogan of children's libaries all over the country next week. According to Miss Miriam E. Snow, children's librarian, there is, however, no need to emphasize a special book week in this school. "The children here have already learned that reading is fun", she declared. The circulation of books in the children's library is constantly increasing. Last year 4,200 books were checked out by the children of the Campus Elementary school for recreational reading only. This is an increase of 1,000 over the reading of the year before. These statistics apply to children in and above the third grade. Children's Book Week Children's Book week, an annual event, is the time when libraries make special displays of what they can offer. These displays are often based on the latest books published, and those which have won the Newberry Medal awards. Some of the outstanding books frequently displayed are: "Mary Poppins", Travers; "Floating Island", Ann Parrish; "Peterkin Papers", Hale; and the Binets' "Book of Americans". Special Displays One of the book cases in the children's room is devoted to special exhibits. This week the display is on "Travel". A different group of books is placed there each week. "Besides reading for pleasure, the children often use the books in working up their assembly programs, says Miss Snow." About 30 books are checked out dairy.

NECKS MENTALITIES QUAVER THE UPPER 4% By D. C. A. wMM The present Legislature has some definite problems calling for decisions which may have some effect on the State Normals. Striking recommendations of the advisory tax commission, other than its new revenue plan are: (1) "To abolish one State Normal y \ v school and transfer its property to the University or State College or both." (The abolition; of one of the three Normals as a teacher training institution is advised • -because the present output of teachers exceeds the demands). (2) "The establishment.-'of a single "lay; gt;boardy'to •'•'a^mfaiste*'r'"tb:':'~ail • higher institutions of education. (This measure is urged consistently by Governor Hartley and means the replacing of the present boards of regents, our trustees such as we have, by a single controlling lay board.) Should these measures find a place before the Legislature now in session, there will doubtless be some very specif ic changes in the present state school system. W.S.N.S. Park H. Davis, in a recent article .advances a new thory as to the decline of intercollegiate athletics felt by sport writers to be decided. No longer, the writer asserted, do we need worry about varsity athletics running away with education, on the whole, intercollegiate activities are declining. because the mass of college students prefer to take part in a great variety of intramural games. Statistics show that enthusiasm of student bodies for their teams is diminishing, that; the players of today are less skillful than their,: predecessors and that attendance of undergraduates, graduates, and the general public is decreasing. .The only exceptions, he feels, are a few football games that have become traditional. The new problem is, will intramural sports destroy intercollegiate games? •1,-——-W. S. N, S.——;.

GAME AT EIGHT The Vikings take the floor Saturday night for their second cage game of the season against the St. Martins Rangers. St. Martins have taken an ultramodern turn. They are becoming "athletic-minded" from all accounts. Not that they have been honored by the Carnegie report, but they have been putting out some fast traveling teams this year. Their basketball team is no exception. They will have John Puller, All- State guard from Olympia, and his running mate* Ike Ogle, second team All-State forward and also from Olympia. This pair set the High School League on fire when they used to cavort for Olympia. Wiatrak is known here as a great tackle, but he is showing equally well on the basketball floor. Wiatrak is slated to fill a tackle slot on Coach Phe-lah's1931 grid team. He plays guard for Father Edward. Coach Carver is stressing work on the offense this week. The team is checked well against Centralia. Abbott's work on the backboard was especially good. Rork broke fast for the openings. Coach Carver realizes that there were many openings in that game that did not produce points. He wants his men to ring up sales on all of them. The Vikings were holding the ball well in the Blaine practice game, but they made mistakes of judgment in their passing. These were purely mechanical mistakes and can be overcome with practice. There seems little chance for vic- (Continued on Page Four) ART CLASSES SCORE STUDENTS MAKE POTTERY UNDER MISS RICHARDSON. Displayed in the main hall of the, Library are books which have been mended, bound or illustrated by members of last quarter's library class. Those doing the work are Carolyn Griffith, Hazel Meeks, Stuart Fresk, Phyllis Bresnan, Pearl Urmey, Gladys Smith, and Leila Voorhies. Miss Lillian George, who is in charge of the work stated that knowing how to keep books in good condition is of value not only to librarians, but to teachers, club workers, and home makers. Those interested in this work have the opportunity of taking the course this quarter. —o STUDENT CO-OP FUND SHOWS A SMALL GAIN BOARD HEARS FORD REPORT; DISCUSS PAPER CONTRACT PLAN MEMORIAL - Miss Richardson or the Industrial Arts department , stated that last quarter was a red letter quarter for her classes due mainly to the fact that they acquired the art of firing pottery. Several attempts to do this have ben made before but none have been successful. An oven was constructed of an oil drum and some bricks and the pottery placed in the 'oven.. "/;•. As yet they have no way of putting a glaze on the pottery; however they were finished by dipping them in a hot solution of beeswax, para-fin, and turpentine. This gives a smooth waterproof finish. The pots are made in moulds of plaster paris. Some of them were made on a small potter's wheel through the efforts of Ann Murphy, however, Mr. Rule has consented to make, a better potter's wheel for the Industrial Arts d-partment. - yy' .

Likewise the students of this last Fall quarter spent some $3.69 less than those of the corresponding quarter in '29. Small Gain The report gave a total gain of $210.33 for' the fiscal year of 1930. The -fact that the students spent lessmohey in recent quarters is attributed to the reduction in prices and not to a smaller volume of business. It was brought out at the meeting that this small gain was in keeping with the "low-profit policies" of the student stores. Plaque Report Arthur Gravrock reported on the progress in securing a marker for the Service Tree. James Carrell met with the Board in the interest of The Viking. A change is to be made next week in the temporary business manager's contract. — -o '•— DRAMA CLUB HOLDS INTERESTING MEET SOCIAL PLANS CHIC: FUN FOR COLLEGIANS ARRANGED IN DETAIL DANCE AND CLUB PARTIES FEATURE CAMPUS SOCIETY FOR WINTER QUARTER.

However, should the time come that a meas- lt; ufe would be unpopular enough to warrant a.full attendance, the thing will take "orii serious proportions.

INTRICATE WORKINGS OF "LINO" REVEALED (Editor's note: Since the first step in the printing of The Viking involves the. use of the linotype, it is deemed that a description of its nature and operation will be both interesting and informative.) . The linotype is something of a cross between a: typewriter and a few dozen type cases, with the unnecessary additions of an electric motor, a few lights, several things that go click, click, click, and a can of discouraging hotnfess that is said to contain molten metal. Who it was that conceived such an idiotic hybrid/remains a matter of conjecture. . He doubtless prefers to remain unknown, justfiably so, for, the sake of the wholeness of his skin. The fact remains that there is such a machine, and; i,t works fairly well, considering its ancestry. The operation of it is a. matter of comparative simplicity, and of course a person of simple mind, usually a Viking editor or a,, printer, is required to run it. • ' For instance; if the operator, sometimes called an operator, desires to cast the word "and," he starts by casting the letter "a;" This is-very easy. - He ^irst consults; a copy of "Who's Which," in order to find who it was that'won the battle of the: Marne.This*step is not absolutely- necessary; ^but adds a bit of "finesse"^ to .the/ finished product. He then sits down at the linotype, discovers that there is no stool, offers up a prayer, finds the stool, and s i t s d p ^ b r i it.

Only the other day we noticed that some brazen hussy had heedlessly tossed her chewing gum— chewing gum mind you!—right onto the paving of High street, and a Baby Austin was stuck on it! (Oh, young woman who should be a model of virtuous behavior, surely the deploring fury of the W. C. T. U. will descend upon you!) So, there, the poor little thing was struggling Cadillacly, and its driver late for a date! A true picture indeed of the depravation of the younger generation! Alas! Alas! * * * * And Corey Ford, that genial historian, tells- in a current magazine of the great basketball short age in 1803. He explains that the baskets were real baskets then, and had actual bottoms. It seems that one by one, all the existing basketballs became lodged in the baskets, which was all right until the supply ran short.

Jim converted seven free throws in succession. In all, he shot eight times, making seven of them. That is quite a feat for any basketball player and his record should stand a long time. ;.. Monday Sam; Carver will leave with his team on their annual road trip over the mountains to play three hard games. Their first tussle of "the trip is a conference game with Eliensburg on Tuesday night. Wednesday evening they mix with the St. Michaels five of Yakima. Rumors say that the Yakima team is strong on both offense and defense, as they claim to have an average of making 60 points to their opponents' 15, in games played thus far this season. On Friday night the Vikings will meet the Cheney Normal for the second conference game of the season. Cheney aiways makes things plenty hot for the Bellingham team in basketball. Although Cheney has not won the Tri-Normal title for some time, she is always out there on the floor fighting to win. Summing up the Centralia-Viking game played Saturday, the Viking five showed plenty; of potential strength, both offensively and defensively. Although: they started rather slow, the Vikings found their j a v v e e s stride, to show that they really have a scoring punch. Sherman, Thor sen and Rork turned in good work in their passing and scoring. Ab-. bott, and Skotheim were the stars, on defense. Both played good when it came to getting the ball off of their opponents' backboard and starting the: attacks which led to a Viking ^vietpry.. -0 ".':- /; gt; ~:, •.'.' • Finishing the first half of the intramural basketball schedule, as far as league leaders are concerned, the respective teams are preparing for the final dash for the league pennant. One game is yet to be played this half, that between the Men's Club and the Co-op. The Philos finished first with a clean slate by knocking over the Bragis 35-12, in the final game of the scheduled first half. The Thespians are undisputed owners of second place by virtue of finishing the first half race with a 28-12 victory over the Kitchen Krew, losing only to the Philos. The Vanadis Bragi are bringing up third place , with three victories and two setbacks. The final game of the first half race is yet to be played between the Co-ops and the Men's Club, but this will not alter the percentage column as far as the first three teams are concerned. Both' teams have lost three games and have come out ahead in but one game, and as a result are not strongly feared by the other teams. The. Kitchen Krew, sole owners of the cellar position, have failed to break into the winning column, but seem to keep right on trying with all the spirit they possess. Philos Look Strong This mid-season choosing of winners by no means determines the pennant championship. Although the Philos finished the period without a single setback, they still have a long season ahead of them, for there are yet five more tough games | for them to wade through. The second place Thespians have been showing a world of power of late and will be right up in front when the playoff comes. The Vanadis Bragi have dropped into a little slump, but may snap out of it and give their followers a very pleasing surprise. Little is to be expected of the other three teams, as they seem to be too far in the "red" to be able to give the three leading contenders any bother during the last half— but they are banking their hopes on the prophecy, "One never can tell what the underdog is going to do." o— Jayyees Nose Out • Whatcom Dairymen In a Crucial Battle ;Blaine town team nosed;;out;the Viktogs^ihvat practice -game on ;the Fairhayehl^oor Tuesday riight.

The Vikings worked well on offense, but they could not hold down the giant Crimson brothers. Ted Hanson is perhaps the best center in the Northwest. He can easily out-jump any one around here: He can throw the ball down into the basket and that is quite some trick. The practice was just what the Vikings needed. Blaine has the ability to give any team a hard game, and can beat most, of them.

We feel that there might be some delusion abroad to the effect that it is the feminine influence that has brought about this change to "ette" from the more virile "ite". Now we would like it understood that the feminine influence had nothing to do with it, but it was the diminished size of the paper that fostered it. You know we really don't mind, .because we feel much more unassuming as suits our character and policy so much, better. But don't forget the wisecrack Kipling made about the "female of the species". • * * * * We rejoice to note that the administration saw fit to insure the complete attendance of the Normal (very normal, in fact) male population to Tuesday's assembly by presenting the fourth appearance this year of Gemma Paglieri. We are assured that the hearty bursts of applause which receive Miss Paglieri's numbers cannot be due entirely to the great musical appreciation of the audience. * tf if « We are accorded a wealth of really fine musicians who give the best they are capable of and before they are through their program, they are entertaining only half their original audience and those are probably" only staging out of politeness or for the righteous feeling they sense for the whole day afterwards, Prom the result of the questionnaires circulated last quarter and the comment that has been current so far this quarter, we notice that there is an abnormal lot of complaint towards the Viking about the lack of women's sports featured. Now, we are not trying to be unreasonable or anything like that, but we would like to remark or at least suggest that the women get some sports first. Whereupon if our iritention' was to be facetious, we might remark that if the women could not get their own sports they really should hot regard the Viking as a matrimonial bureau—or something. • : . • , ' # ' * lt; • • * ' • ' .' Apropos of nothing, we were interested in the: philosophy evinced by Mr. Bell in the class of Interpreters of Contemporary Thought. As he was describing a movie in which '•'the Melting Pot" was featured, in which peoples of other countries with their graceful dances and charming ways: were sent through the mill and turned; out "Ameri-cans^- r-jazz-mad, efficient people like everyone else, I happened to think of the sir^arity 6l t^e Melting Pot, so-palled^ to the Normal itself^ Here -'a large number of individuals axe ^ with certain-; ideati'::a^v''met^pils,,; and turned jOut•;-l»ll-''i^t^^:-tea4ej-; ; markW V t e a ^ ^^ concealed as not, to interfere .with the "well-tried teaching methods"; CLIMB TOMORROW OFFERS HARDSHIPS Good Fishing, Beautiful Scenery to be Enjoyed by Students Making Trip; Stiff Climb Promised. LEAVE CAMPUS 7 A. M. Tomorrow morning, June 28th, the stage leaves the Normal campus headed for Shuksan, where the Twin Lakes Pass climb begins. Seven o'clock in the-morning' is rather early, but to individuals who have previously made the climb the necessity for the start is quite apparent. Approximately forty students are expected to make the climb. Stiff Climb A climb of one foot.is not difficult, but when you put some 3,000 of them in succession the result is extreme fatigue. Twin Lakes Pass is some 5,400 fete in elevation, 2,000 of which is made by stage, the rest being climbed in some seven miles of walking. . To the fisherman the climb is usually worth while, and to the lovers of the great outdoors and beautiful scenery, the climb can't be beaten. The two lakes nestle between two of which, the marvelous Canadian Cascades may be seen. There will be plenty of snow up in the pass, and mountain meadows with their lovely wild flowers will be encountered on the trip. The country is full of wild animal life: deer, bear, wild goats and other types may be seen. Descent Interesting Not only is the descent interesting, but it is also very comfortable to the tired hikers. After being up in the mountains all day, the hikers will be permitted to partake of the finer things of life at Glacier. Ice cream most certainly will be intensely interesting and other delicacies will be likewise appreciated. All in all, everybody must agree that the trip will be well worth while. ' ' Students Will Sail On Yacht Thetis Normal students, will have an opportunity to sail in Puget Sound on the yacht Thetis, when Dr. Carl Erh will take a party of students on a cruise among the Sucia Islands in the Gulf of Georgia. The outing is being arranged by Franklin Lock, for several years a student of the school. "The Sucia Islands are a beautiful group that are out of the regulard\ cruising routes," Franklin Lock declared, "and offer fine opportunities for exploring. Students who have been out on the .Thetis are very enthusiastic about sailing, and most of the trip will be made under canvas, although auxiliary power .is used. whenever the breeze drops down.'? The party will. leave the Pacific American dock at the end of the South Bellingham carline Sunday morning, shortly after nine o'clock. Students are requested, to their own lunches. , '—— -o-—"•'.' •..— Normalites Buy "Diamond Dick*r Considerable interest is evident in literature in this school, and makes itself noticeable in the attention of students in choice of reading matter. "Diamond Dick," "The Love Affairs of Emma," and similar touching captions to other 10-cent thrillers and heart soothers captivated the interest of many hikers when returning from the salmoh-bake. , I t is unkndwn to what extent the^se were purchased or whether the interest was cursory or not, but English department take notice. : gt; look up the grades of student teWhere and jet your; judgment ^be yourguide.^'^y^'^'v^;-'; -: i: lt;;:'" t'jf!;:: philosophical; but thuik nothing of lii MI"' '" "' House Mothers Hold ft Short Business Meeting i At Edehs^Dormitory The Normal Housemothers' Association held a short business meetr ing Thursday in the Clubroom at Edens Hall, with thirty-seven members present. An election of', officers was held, and Mrs. D. Cooper was elected President of the Association, and Mrs. Caroline Edwards was named to act as Secretary for the coming year. ^-Mrs. Mable Moore, retiring President, and Mrs. S. W. CoUett, retiring Secretary, expressed appreciation to the members for their cooperation during the past year. SCIENCE DEPT. TO PROBE HEREDITY Science Instructors to Experiment with Inherited Characteristics of Fruit Flies; Test Is Unusual. Experiments on the inheritance of characteristics in fruit flies are to be carried out in the laboratory of the- Science (department. This has never before been done in the Normal school. The flies are kept in bottles containing banana, at a temperature of 76°. The larvae are fed every 6 weeks. The crysalis are crossed before mature. Those with red eyes are placed in the feeding bottle with those having white eyes. The parents are removed in five days, after which the resulting crysalis are giv-an ether and then placed under the microscope to see how many have red eyes and how many have white. No new experiments, will be tried. To obtain the material for the experiments, Miss", Ruth Piatt- and Miss Ruth Shumway made a trip to the University of British Columbia. The U. has had the supply, which it received from Chicago, only since March. There was no trouble in crossing the line. The classes are making field trips which include peat bogs, natural dry dock, and the mountains. —^—;—o——~ CRAW ELECTED TO BOARD MEMBERSHIP Much interest was shown in the election as there were three other candidates seeking office; namely, William Kelley, Warren Boynton and John Rajala. The election of Evelyn Craw means that the women of the school now; have two representatives from their group, the other woman holding office being Mary MacDonald. James McCleary and Lyle Summers were-elected in last Friday'si assembly to act as student repre-j sentatives to the Board of Control for this quarter. They will fill; the bring positions l^ft vacant by Harold Rich and Art Graverock; who were granted a leave of absence. There were no other candidates for the offices. • •'•'• • - o-———— " FROSH AWARD SILVER SCHOLARSHIP TROPHY TO FUTURE FRESHMAN Class Hope to Establish Tradition to Encourage Entering Students Toward Better Efforts. YEARLY CHANGE OF CUP Next year, according to an an-' nouncement made this week, the Freshman student attaining the highest scholarship record for the year will receive the Scholarship Trophy cup,-which is to be presented by the Freshman bias of 1930, the graduating class of '31. This trophy will go as an award for individual scholarship, intended to encourage entering Freshmen to further intellectual effort. A silver trophy cup was decided upon by the Freshman executive board, instead of cash prizes, which was originally announced because of the permanency and traditional merit of the cup. The trophy will remain in the possession of the winner for one year, and will then be passed on to the winner of the award for the succeeding year. '.'The Freshmen hope to establish with the awarding of the cup a tradition for the school, and . an increased interest in scholastic success of the students," Pelagius Williams,' class advisor, declared. The cup bears the inscription: -Scholarship Trophy Presented by the Class of 1931 ... To a Student of Each .Incoming Freshman Class Who Attains the Highest Degree of Scholarship for the year. gt; lt;. The Freshman executive board for the year 1929-30 was: Joe Weth-erby, president; Mary .McDonald, vice president; Allene Armstrong, secretary-treasurer; Mr. Pelagium Williams, class advisor.

John Rajala Lyle Summers *gv . , T 1 Member) NOCTURNAL BULL FEST TKe other night this "bull-thrower" became involved in what turned out to be the sweetest little argument it has been our pleasure to indulge ja.in many months. It started at nine o'clock around one of the local .Well counters, and ended at one o'clock under the street lamp on the cocner of High and Oak. All in all, some ten Normal students and several townsmen smote their palms and expounded on the various sides of ifce question of whether American society has crystallized into definite caste lines, or not. It turned out to be a "natural" from the standpoint of a connoisseur of nocturnal bull fests. -*•-' Which all reminds us that, for some reason or another, the country is •rapidly becoming a land of shirt-sleeve philosophers. Assemble any group of business men on the street, and they will soon be waxing hot in debate on anything from the prohibition question to the changes taking place in our merchandising system. Gather any crowd of laboring people 'and you will find them reorganizing the government along communistic lines, or reforming the churches. Get pocketed in any get-together of ;htgh school youngsters, and you won't be able to leave until you have helped diem dissect the ailments of our democratic government. And if; you make the mistake of dropping into any local sandwich shop some evening where Normal students gather, you won't sleep until you have helped discover what has happened to Prosperity. Nor. will, you find the opposition unprepared for a rush of false testimony., If .you try to put over an economic argument by means of a bit of bluff, you will find them taking you down the line with Stewart Chase and Andre Siegfried, or some other modern who has written on American problems; They will not only quote the opinion of. these writers verbatim, btu will probably have memorized much of the statistical data avail- ..afole, and:.won't hesitate to spear you with it. ^ ' I f you want real entertainment, take up the great American pastime, and get in the..next debate you see starting, wherever you may find it. • But don't expect not to have to do a lot of reading afterward. T H E CAR-PARKING PROBLEM Againv it has been necessary to bring before the student body the prob- •lenr oflx^frVparking on the campus. More than average, parking precision is required because of the many cars that are being used on the campus i/tjbis summer, .• ...;.'. The grounds are large enough for more than one hundred machines if parked with a degree of care. There are white lines to assist in parking,, but these are too often overlooked; and cars are found parked in any ' ^ l t i o n that suits theJ gt;wner, with little or no consideration for anyone "*else. v\''''" '"'":-' ' " ' ' ' ''' Instead of making parking a grand sprawl, a sort of grab-bag to see '*wWch: car can get the best space and incidentally the most, lets consider a little, and park with the other fellow's point of view in mind. "\ V • '•".'• • " ' •/;•; : —c. D. $The Methodist Faun, by Anne Parrish. Published by Harpers and Brothers, New York; and London, 1929. f ^••/V-^r" ,* Following the trend of modern day, writers, Anne Parrish has kept her entire novel within the narrow range of the Methodist community of Pine Hills. "The ; Methodist Faun" has for a background the close relationship of a small town, a place where everybody is familiar with the most intimate affairs of everyone else; a place where the pettiness of envy, the sordid narrowness of outlook drive men of genius and imagination to distraction. \ In Clifford Hunter, Miss Parrish has deviated from her precedent of female principals, and created a most appealing and unusual hero. Clifford is a man of most delicate sensibilities — something altogether out of place in this atmosphere of smallness and avid desire for gossip and scandal due to lack of greater, higher occupation. Instead of the novel being a sort of analytical description of Clifford from the viewpoint of a surveyor, an outsider with all the facts, it is the minute transcription of himself from his own mind. Even is this carried out in regard to the other characters of the story, for they each one appear and are catalogued as they ,were in the mind of young Hunter. Granted Clifford Hunter is weak; but his very f utility/his thwarted desires plead for him. In reading of him gt; we are excited to pity; we feel he was a victim of an uhalterr able Fate who amused itself with the torturing of ;this squirming earthworm. It is another case of a misfit in society. Miss Parrish treats her other characters with the same skill that forced tine most skeptical to believe in Clifford, and one is able to recognize prototypes of one's own society. In Mrs. Johnson, one recognizes the lady-who-livesrup-the-street- a-ways who ' has an un-plumbed knowledge of everyone in town-and does not hesitate to use it regardless of the hate and misery she is causing. Martha is the awfully nice girl we all know who was raised in the church with such care that she is now in a state where she would accept the first __man who asked her to marry him. In all her characters, does Miss Parrish show the" same deep penetration and accurate knowledge of the actual persons. In appallingly sharp strokes she throws her little community on the screen of the brain, a community of narrow souls but one that typifies a layer of society. Unconsciously through Miss Parrish's workrwe find a criticism of this society that, taken more seriously, is an excellent example of the modern, desire to step forward beyond the humdrum conventionalities of existence, beyond littleness and narrow ideals, and unveil the infinite scope that lies behind the curtain. —C. E. M. BOTTLED gY B2H2 Perfection! The ability to cope with a situation in the best possible way... We are all trying to fjnd perfection in one form., or., another. Many of us find it on the basketball court or on the football field, while others find it in their studies, although excellence is not always perfection... There is one field, in which we can all attain that infinite institution called perfection— on the tennis court. We may,not be able, to play as Tilden used to, but we can obtain., a., quality., of sportmanship and gentlemanship that will label us as being perfect.

An example of the above was the Church-Boynton match. Plenty hot! This isn't a column—dirt seems much better word. Sam Carver has the golf craze plenty. Who can blame him? Of all the names for basketball teams, the mtramural league has a downhill pull for $he honors. We pick Swamp Rabbits for the cake-toter this quarter. - As an offering we suggest Hen Hill Flapjacks in the big league class of puddle jumpers race. Why wouldn't a faculty golf tournament be a wow? By taking teacher- students for caddies the conversation would be helpful to both. ' . * . ' . * * • ' ' ' • • All in all there are many activities in school this summer.

Church, Boynton, Prendergast, Rhodes and Bond seem to be the most dependable players, and it is claimed that one of the other of them will win first place. Warren Boynton, smashing and driving net star, closely pressed Hamilton Church in a three-set match last week. Boynton won the first set 6-4 and had Church 5-2 in games the second set before the latter could swing into his stride to win the second 7-5 and the third set 8-6. Les Rhodes, past Viking basketball letterman, showed up on the courts the other day and handed the spectators a surprise by his evident improvement in the game of tennis. According to Director S. E. Carver, some excellent tennis will be the order of the Summer quarter. The drawings for the ladder tournament are as follows: Church, Boynton, Lewis, Prendergast, Reff, Willard, Reeves, Duyff, Rhodes, Schaffer, Bond, Korsboen, Summers. Gemmi Paglieri In Italian Song Recital Gemma Paglieri, soprano, a favorite with the Normal School audience, was presented in a recital of Italiarf songs, in costume, in the regular assembly Tuesday morning, June 24. Miss Paglieri has appeared here a number of times before this and has always received a welcome, from the student body. Marjorie El-well accompanied her on the piano. Several of the numbers had been sung before and were repeated upon request. Among these were "Maria, Maria," by Di Capau; ever popular "Ciribiribin", a love-song, by Pesta-lozza. The girls of El Nido HaU haye or;r ganized a crack baseball team and would like to have some games with some of the other Organized houses. In fact, El Nido challenges each and every house to play. Any house interested should send a representative to Miss Weythman and arrange :a game. '..'•". .'• • , ";V' . ' ' • ' . • * • * •.. • * , - • /' Two daring young men have ven-turned into the advance Folk Dancing class and, according to all reports/ are.showing considerable skill in the terpsichorean art. Miss Weythman informs the women of the school that the class has been closed, in order to forestall any sudden interest in it. , Golf seems to be a Very popular sport for the more wideawake persons, as the classes are held at 8 o'clock on Tuesdays and Thursday, and 11 o!clock on Wednesdays and Thursdays. All students who would like to play golf at the Lakeway Course may get student tickets from either Miss Weythman or Mr. Carver, which will make a big reduction in the greens fees. Quite a number of girls have enrolled in the instruction classes in tennis.^They have been divided into groups: those who have never played the game before, and those who are learning new strokes and perfecting them. Handball and archery seem to be of interest in the group of summer sports from the number of girls turning out for them. Any one who would like to start some inter-house competition in any of these activities may see Miss Weythman and organize a playing schedule. « * * At the splash hour, which is held Thursday evening from seven to nine o'clock, at the Y. W. C. A., there will be a life guard to help in instructing those who are working for their life-saving badges. There will also be opportunity for instruction in life-saving in Miss Horton's advanced swimming classes held Monday and Wednesdays at three o'clock. Showing ^ burst of speed in the fir^^feW n i ^ o f ^ a g ^ Mab's Pets, the ; Swamp RaJjbits piled up a four point lead.and /were able to keep the long legged five in the; rut the remainder of the bas-ketball game. The finalresults totaled up with a 25 to 18 score, ,p. The. contest proved to be a thriller from start to finish from the spectator's viewpoint with the outcome not settled in anyone's mind until just before the final gong. Both teams -played good lively ball and carried the fast pace to the finish; Rough playing featured in places but no serious; casualties were recorded.' About the worst was" a little shedding of red corpuscles by Bud Johnson, who came too close to an elbow under the basket- As this was the first game for either team in the summer schedule both sides made frequent substitutions and shifts in the lineup as a weakness would show up J' Featuring the play of the winners was the guarding of Karl W^eb-er. His playing proved to be the breaking up of many plans', under the basket, and around mid-floor. At forward for the marshy animals, Perry showed plenty of speed and also walked away with high point honors by chalking up nine markers. His teammate, Lundberg, at the tip-off position, closely followed with seven points to his credit. H. McCleery of the Mac's Pets aggregation lead his team with a total of seven points. Summaries of the game: Swamp Rabbits, Perry and E. Bond, forwards; Lundberg, center; Weber and Geri, guards. Mac's Pets: Nyberg and McCleery; forwards; Rhodes, center; Hunni-cutt and Standen, guards. Substitutions: Swamp Rabbits, Nostrant and Reeves. Mac's Pets: Johnson and Standen. Sam Carver, referee. The following is the schedule for the remainder of the playing season: June 26, Vanadis Bragi vs.' Swamp Rabbits; July 1, Benedicts vs. Mac's Pets; July 8, Vanadis Bragi vs. Mac's Pets; July 10,.Benedicts vs. Swamp Rabbits. its JSaturda Reginald Denny IN n Fast' Pun arid Sparkling Situations * In Denny's Happiest Role 4 ^ Two-Reel Comedy —^ Graham McNamee News Reel 25c ADULTS ; " KIDDIES 10c CONTINUOUS Horseshoes, Handball Get Good Play With the settling-down week over for the quarter, intramural sports are warming up with real enthusiasm behind them: The challenge list in Mr. Carver's office is about filled with names, which means lots of good games to be witnessed by spectators. In handball, ten men are vieing for top honors with the competition plenty keen. The ladder, .as it stands at present is, Reeves,. Rad-cliffe, Gunn, Brown, Hunnicutt, Ax-elson, Rule, Bright^ Carver,, and Omeg. The lately revived sport of pitching horseshoes also promises some very interesting matches. The ladder for this sport finds Korsborn sitting on top, trailed by Axelson, Prendergast, Bright, Johnson, Ham-mett, Brown;' and Pederson. The horseshoe games are played in one corner of Waldo tfield while the handball fracas has for a setting the back of the grandstand. CO-OP. TO HANDLE Among the many policies adopted by the Co-op to further the. inters ests of the students m is that made known recently when Mr. Sam Ford) manager of the student's book store, obtained the agency for Remington Portable typewriters, and through an arrangement with the typewriter company has made it possible for every teacher to obtain one of these handy little machines. "Why continue to write in slow, tedious long-hand," Mr. Ford asks, •"When with a Remington Portable you can turn out a beautifuly clear and legible printed page with far less time and effort? 7 "Is is the most'compact of all -portables. The case is only four inched high, making it easy to carry and conveniently tuck away in "a desk drawer or bookcase.

They saw butter in the churns awaiting the final test, each churn holding twelve hundred pounds of butter. Then, in the ice cream department, each student received a large Jumbo bar. The journey then continued to the powdered milk, section, where this powder is made from skimmed milk. Mr. Eddy explained how a current of- hot air is sprayed hi the milk which evaporates the moisture. . He stated that out of one hundred pounds of skimmed milk there is only 9% powder. Mr. Eddy, at the conclusion, remarked, "The Bellingham plant is the largest diversified plant of idairy products in the United States." o—__— Training School Third Grade Has Outing EDENS HALL .v-v-v The -first'iiou^ meeting of tjies summerquarter• was held Tuesday evening,: June 17.

Last Monday, the 23rd, the class was taken out to. the Rocks, at South Bellingham, in cars furnished By parents, and there they began collecting material for the aquarium. Their collection for the day was very varied and their first specimens have been put down in formaldehyde and soon will be laid out to dry. They will be kept in' the room in this state. The interest in gt; a salt water aquarium has been very keen. This summer, under the guidance of Miss Pearl Merriman, the fourth grade will take trips to industrial points of interest. The first of these trips was taken a week ago Thursday, June 19, to the Bloedel-Donovan box factory. This morning in the training school assembly, the children read stories, showed pictures, told' their experiences for the benefit of the other classes. While at the "factory they were especially overjoyed with the hum of the planers and handsaws. The complete procedure was reviewed from the log to loading the nailed- up finish box on the scow. • _ — . — o — — — • STUDENTS MAY FLY Students here have the opportunity of reduced airplane fares in short eight and ten minute trips oyer the city, the manager of the Graham air port announced last week.

We still think that the height of something or other was depicted on the roof last Tuesday as the world famous Akron barged gracefully past the Normal campus. One of our infamous native., sons., cried., hysterically..— "Come on ya big pickle—let out one of yer old airplanes!.. I dare ya to. See! It's chicken!" Ah, the irony of it all—the futile irony! ' W.S.N.S. If the Akron has eyes, and it seemed to have just about everything, it viewed one of the most fantastic'and exciting games of chance yet attempted;: by Normal school students and^f acuity. A large group of studes absconded to the roof of the main building to get an unobstructed view of the big blimp. Hardly had they settled themselves than a portly member of the well-known faculty could be heard puffing and pawing his way up the side of the roof. Immediately bets of varying sizes were placed as to whether he would make it, fall off. or tear his trousers. He made it. Incidentally, said faculty member is a sociology instructor. -W.S.N.S. The New York beer parades have seemingly monopolized the front pages of the latest newspapers and are causing a considerable controversy in~ this land of wets and not so wets. In Detroit the same sort of demonstration was staged last week. At Princeton, students marched through the campus and down Nassau Street, headed by the Princeton band... Placards read, "We want beer" and "Down with poisonous bootleg". Prohibition is the greatest menace to the student body of the land and the students know it. (Says you!—Ed?) —-—W.S.N.S. Turmoil provoked by world depression continues. Every day we never know where the line of civilization will break next. A few days ago the President of France was assassinated... Now it is the Premier of Japan, murdered in a Fascist! revolt. Good people, going to church, will say that these are days when God afflicts His own to bring them nearer to Himself, to make earth less attractive... The cynical will say we have made a good job of creating our own helL W.S.N.S. This same Akron, mistress of the air, that we gazed* upon Tuesday, was the promoter of a terrible accident a few days ago which resulted in the death of two men. The airship tore away from her moorings and carried with her three of the landing crew hanging onto a cable. Two of them were whipped off by the dirigible at a height of three hundred feet and were dashed to death. One boy, an-Oklahoma ex-cowboy and sailor, hung on for an hour and thirty-five minutes before hauled aboard. That takes grit, but the distressing part of it is that young men of such courage have to be sacrificed to the fool theory .' that millions . of dollars should be spent on dirigibles which arenas, useless in time of peace as in • • ^ 3 $ •'• ' .

Virginia HuMdeserves •:'a-)$0f^credit as do James Butler anWihe ther^^^m^ Folk Song Program Will Be Presented By Seattle Artists An unusual program will be that of the A Capella trio from Seattle, who will present an ensemble of folk songs and madrigals in assembly on Tuesday, May 31. They will offer old English, French, Scotch, Irish, Russian and Swedish folk songs, some of the favorites being "Drink to Me Only With Thine Eyes," "Rakes of Mallow" and "The Sleigh Ride." Members of the trio are Joan Pritchard, Kathryn Hunter and Dean Mundy. In addition to their ensemble singing each will present a solo, accompanied by Rachel Stickelman at the piano. Louis Arend Helder, baritone, will sing in assembly, Friday, June 3. Mr. Helder, formerly a teacher of voice in Bellingham, is now teaching in Seattle. o Normalites to Go to Institute Meet July 11, in Oregon Delegates from Normal to the third biennial session of the Pacific Institute of International Relations will soon be selected, according to President C. H. Fisher. These representatives will include one or more faculty members from the social science department and possibly a student delegate, he stated. To Be Held at Portland The institute will be held this year in the Reed College buildings at Portland under the auspices of the University of Oregon summer school from July 11 to 16. The following is from a letter from the university's president, Arnold B. Hall, telling of the institute's work: "In addition to the analysis of fundamental factors in international relations such as food, population and raw materials, the institute will devote much study to two current problems, the conflict between China and Japan in the Far East and the international financial and economic problems, war debts, reparations and monetary problems. The program will include round table discussions and public addresses." Institutes Interesting "We have always before found these sessions very interesting and are looking forward to this year's institute," said Mr. Fisher. The first institute was held in 1928 at the University of Washington and the second in 1930 at the University of California. (Continued on Bage Two) WILLIAMS IS NAMED CHAIRMAN OF LOCAL HEALTH CONFERENCE Mm ^ii$i#Mv Pelagius Williams of the Social Science department has been named as chairman of the Bellingham Executive committee by State Superintendent N. D. Showalter, chairman of the White House conference on Child Health and Protection for the State of Washington. This committee has four counties within its jurisdiction. The general purpose of the State White House conference is to study the present status of the health and well being of the children of Washington; to report what is being done, and ot recommend what ought to be done and how to do it. The executive committee consists of four departments with Mr. Williams in charge of the department of the Handicapped Child. The first state meeting of. the White House conference was held on April 1 and 2 of this year at Seattle. . .•','"•'.-— o—; :;.'7":. "The Cradle Song" Drama club play of Spring quarter will be reviewed in the next issue of the Viking by Mrs. Lucy Mf Gaul, a resident of BeUmghani.and formerly an instructor of Spanish in this school. :Wm'i- 1932 KLIPSUNS ARE DISTRIBUTED TODAY Book Done in Brown and Ivory Has Northwest Outdoor Life as Theme FEATURES COED PICTURE Carrying out the idea of Northwest outdoor life, bound in a rich brown suede, with gold lettering on the upper left-hand corner, and with, fantastic colored blockings on the inner cover, the Klipsun of 1932 was distributed among the students today. The first few pages are devoted to charcoal sketches of scenes about the campus reproduced on a brown manuscript paper, which paper -also supplements the ivory-finish paper of the other parts of the book. Section Divisions Administration, classes, activities, organizations, athletics, t r a i n i ng school and school life are the main divisions of the 1932 Klipsun. It contains individual cuts of the faculty, the junior-senior college, and the sophomore class members, together with their administrative officers. The members of the Board of Control of the Associated Students, Klipsun and Viking staffs and informal and social chairmen also have individual pictures. Group pictures include those of the organized houses and the clubs. The various Drama club plays are given pages and the training school is well represented with cuts and news items. The school life section, which includes snapshots of students and faculty, opens with a page devoted to the winner of the "most representative co-ed" contest. ALUMNI SCHEDULE HAS MANY EVENTS Baccalaureate Service Will Be Given by Rev. Fifield in Auditorium Valkyrie to Sponsor Football Movie Next Friday arid Saturday BANQUET AT LEOPOLD As the quarter draws to a close, term papers are becoming overdue and tests are causing everyone to see things in the dark, so too definite signs of the thirty-third annual commencement are listed among pleasant prospects. The schedule for Alumni day on Saturday, June 8, is as follows: 8 a, m. to 12:30 p. m.—Women's field day. 1 p. m.—W. A. A. sports luncheon at Edens Hall. 6 p. "m.—Alumni banquet and dance at the Crystal ball room, Hotel Leopold. Tickets will be on sale at Miss Fitcha's desk Wednesday, June 1, and are $1 each. Sermon by Fifield Sunday, June 5, the baccalaureate sermon will be given by Rev. L. Wendell Fifield at 3:30 p. m. in the Normal auditorium. Rev. Fifield comes from the Plymouth Congregational church of Seattle. Three main events have been scheduled for class day, June 8, under the supervision of Elsie O'Don-nell and E. A. Bond: 10 a. m.—Assembly program by graduates. 8:15 p. m.—Placing of class numerals. 9 a. m.—Faculty reception to graduates, their parents and friends at the Edens Hall reception room. Commencement exercises will start at 10 a. m. on Thursday, June 9, in the auditorium. M. Lyle Spencer, president of the University of Washington, will deliver the main address. Ramon Navarro, in "The Huddle", a college picture, is to be sponsored by the Valkyrie club, the object of which is to earn a meager sum so that Dick Albert, in his.journey to Washington, D. C, and the President, may not starve. This movie is to be at the Mount Baker theater on June 3 and 4. Tickets are to be sold next week anywhere from the main landing to Baughman's and other vicinities. Any Valkyrie girl will have tickets which are to be 35c. Albert's trek to deliver and present the Klipsun to President Hoover is being sponsored by the Northwest Viking. Dick Albert Grants an Interview WILL NOTROB BANK FOR MONEY Before Starting on Eastern Journey By ALLEN Dick was very busy that day. I found him in the little cubby-hole off the balcony of the auditorium playing tiddly-winks with settings for "Cradle Song." I wouldn't say he was actually swearing, but he really couldn't get that rug out the door. Finally, though, he got around to saying something to me. It surprised me to hear him say "Hello," but I guess he ran out of other things to say. I asked him if he could spare a few moments of his precious time to a struggling interviewer. He said, "I am looking for no publicity whatsoever. My efforts are entirely unselfish, and I am doing this for the dear old school and for no selfish and worldly motives." Then we went over and sat down so he could answer my questions. I asked the lad if he liked liver and onions. With a cheerful smile he answered, "Of course she's a nice girl." I then requested his opinion regarding the football question— whether or not he favored abandonment of the sport. "Of course," he replied, "the next presidential election will settle all those questions." Then I suggested that we be ---------- Northwest Viking - 1932 May 27 - Page 2 ---------- m :Vt \^HINGTQN STATE NORMAL ^ ..re iNormw^e^ Formerly The Weekly Messen^p-^ounded 1 8 ^ gt; Published every Friday except during the^ month of September by the Associated Students, Washington State Normal School,' Bellingham, --"A-- • ' Entered in the Postoffice at Bellingham, Washington, as second class matter by virtue of the act of March 3, 1879.

You and the cast of "Cradle Song" are deserving of much praise for a good play well acted. As to choice of presentation, its contrast to the past two Drama Club plays is most evident and shows excellent planning for variety in the year's entertainment. T H E K L I P S U N staff, last but not least. As one editor to another, Kathleen, you've published a great book, and one not only you, but the entire school may be proud of. • We wondered last Friday if Ellery Walter Were not on a speaking tour sponsored by the American Legion. R EADING WITH ESERVATIONS One of the most dangerous of occupations nowadays is making generalizations or forming opinions on current topics. Make a statement today and tomorrow regret it. Things move and change so fast in the world of events that a person is behind the times by the time he has his generalization made. Writers have become ridiculous, newspapers ludicrous, as the result of articles in connection with news events of the past few weeks. Many such examples may be found in the Lindbergh kidnapping case and recently the Christian Science Monitor carried a signed article calling attention to the fact that ocean flying had become an old story and that a flight today might rate 30 or 4 0 lines in a newspaper. Moral — Don't believe today's paper till you see tomorrow's.

Depression Organization (By EINAR LARSON) With a program that includes immediate relief, as well as permanent economic security, "The Peoples' Councils" is welding the farmers and the industrial workers of Whatcom county into a powerful organization based upon co-operation and democracy. It now has over 3000 members, and is rapidly increasing its membership at the rate of 100 members a day. Its unprecedented growth is due largely to the democratic nature of its constitution. The constitution declares that "the supreme authority of the Peoples' Councils is, a t all times, vested in the people." "The Peoples' Councils" is a vehicle for the expression of the collective needs and desires of the people, and is driving irresistibly through the planless architecture of our present economic structure. It aims at replacing "the exploitation of men by men" with "the complete and scientific exploitation of machinery for the benefit of society as a whole." It aims also at securing a classless society, which will guarantee economic security to everyone. Both of these aims are to be achieved, asserts the preamble of the constitution, only "when an intelligently planned system of national economy shall replace the present chaotic, competitive system of industrial anarchy." lOEIOl IOE301 [ O B * ] [OE30I v£ t ?•:£*»* In O ^ ^ e of tlii l^tiicial "Above all things, be natural yourself." Everyone has been saying this for so long that we have come to accept it without question. Anyone can be natural, and in this age of individuality we must be different, so,— why not be artificial, if you can do it well. The point is, be artificial, but be artificial subtly, for subtlety is an art in its own justification. Make it a paradox. Be artificial in a way everyone will think it natural, and make it natural to be artificial. "Her complexion is not natural." No, thank God, she had sense enough to add what nature evidently failed to provide, and if some of the censors of the artificial in maidenly beauty would only "gaze long and searchingly" into their mirrors, they would cease censoring. The women of America, as a group, have been termed the most beautiful women in the world. And why? Because they have learned to be artificial, subtly. The women of Greece, even Egypt, used rouge and lipstick and, I have not a doubt, had a means of keeping their noses from shining. Were they not the By Roma Henderson Be Student Opinion A daily newspaper recently criticized the Northwest Viking for omitting the story of a baseball game. It might be of interest to know that a former employee of that newspaper was responsible for the failure of that story to appear. Inter-collegiate football here at the Normal has failed its objective in many ways. Primarily any inter- collegiate sport should benefit those who participate as well as those who are spectators. Here neither the spectator nor the participant is benefited. The students give football almost no support. They seldom attend the games and they show no interest if they do attend. Those who participate receive little or no benefit. Constant defeat is bad for the morale of any team, and when it is coupled with a lack of backing from the students that extends over a long period of time, it becomes unnecessary. —B- A-Three dollars paid by each girl in this school every fall quarter, approximately $1,800. What is this money spent for—football and basketball suits for the girls? No! Turned over to the boys to outfit a losing team each year.

Two of the golf enthusiasts, Mr. Philippi and Mr: Lusterman, left to tee off, and we hear they were so unobliging (or was it obliging?) as to dash off immediately after dinner to follow the little white ball again. These ball teams seem to be keeping quiet about their respective scores and so-" called big league members. However, some of the players were Mr. Ruckmick, pitcher; Mr. Carver, catcher; Dr. Masters, outfielder; President Fisher somewhere on or off the diamond, and others. The women's team included Miss Jones, Miss Rich, Mrs. Hoppe, Mrs. Kinsman and a lot more. Just what positions they held are not told (we wonder if they knew!). But we present the prize medal to Miss Anna Ullin, who was the only one to brave the frigid waters for a dip. (Castor oil, mentholatum and mustard plasters are the best cure for a cold, Miss Ullin.) Feast and Festivities The dinner, which sounds like a king's banquet, was of fried chicken, new potatoes, peas, biscuits, ice cream, strawberries, cake and coffee. Sounds good enough to eat. After dinner most of the party retired to the cabin for dominoes. Suddenly two objects, cold, tired and wet, dragged in to absorb most of the heat and find the easiest chairs, after a slow motion track meet around the golf course. Finale Outside of the elements acting rather unpleasant, the party was a success Counting "faculty members and families and friends, there were about 82. The committee in charge was Misses Lillian Dunning, chairman, Mar jorie Horton, Ethel Church, Mr* R. D. Wilson and Mr. Sam Carver.

A. A. hikers on Memorial day, Monday, May 30. Girls are to meet at the Quacken-bush dock at 6:50 a. m., promptly, to take the Osage to Olga. All those planning to attend are asked to bring enough lunch for two meals, as the party will not return until 8 p. m. The round trip fare will be $1, which will be the only cost. All girls coming on the hike must sign on the W. A. A. bulletin board by Friday noon. Miss Lillian George, leader of the hike, urges a large turnout for this unusual trip. o WILLIAMS INITIATED IN U'S HONORARY SOCIETY Paul Williams, a former student of Bellingham Normal, and son of Pelagius Williams of the Social Science department, was initiated last week into the pre-medic honorary society at the University of Washington, the school he is now attending. Usually students are elected only from the Junior class and this election came as a double honor since Paul Williams is a member of the Sophomore class. Six other students were also given the honor.

Imported French suede gloves are cool and moisture absorbing and are ideal for warm weather. Mesh has spread from hose to gauntlets. They come in different weights and different colors and are just too neat for anything. Sh oes Whether it be pump, strap or oxford, white buckskin is the one shoe that is always right with your summer frocks. And graduates, pumps or sandals, tinted to match your frock will certainly add a finishing touch to an attractive costume. vTake Swim In A number of men of the school are complaining of cold water and barnacles and upon questioning they reveal the fact that they are the new members of the "W" Club, which held its initiation last Tuesday at the Chuckanut State Park. Someone has said that walking on barnacles is a great help for sore feet and to verify this fact just note the very careful manner in which "Mercury" Schlilaty, "Nick" Bond, "Johnny" Kienast and a number of others place their feet upon the walks of this institution. You would be surprised to know how Scotch some of the boys are—why they actually ate molasses and flour as if they enjoyed it in order to find one measly penny, which, to tell you the truth wasn't even in the pan! Members Swim It seems that all the new members like the water, at least they all went in swimming (with some slight encouragement). But the best act of the afternoon was ---------- Northwest Viking - 1932 May 27 - Page 4 ---------- up flip II P N£^!

Johnny Gable leaped 22 feet to a new broad jump record, while Jim Davis, the Viking hurdle star, clipped the sticks in record time. Playing a return game with the U. of W. Frosh- this.week-end "Pop" Gunn and his diamond men will attempt to revengo the defeat handed them by the Frosn nine in their first engagement here some time ago. The "W" club reports their initiation held on last Tuesday evening at Larrabee State Park as being a "howling" success; putting the emphasis on howling. Jimmy Foxx, the Philadelphia Athletics batting powerhouse, is nearing a new major league bat record of .450. He totals .447 at present to lead the swat kings of American and National leagues. Babe Ruth is said to be the likely manager of the Boston Bed Sox of the American league in 1933. Everything seems to be O. K, but first the "Babe*' must make the usual denial of the position or having known nothing about the job whatever. It seems to be socially incorrect not to deny the rumor whatever it may be. ; Until recently, Coacth Tom Bolles, frosh crew mentor at the U. of W., had held hopes of sending "his kids" to Poughkeepsie classic in the near future. Bolles and Wee Coyle, former Washington athlete have been carrying on a campaign to raise enough money to send his frosh eight to the Hudson races but failed in their courageous attempt. Coach Bolles was sure that "his Kids", as he called them, would get some place in the races and defend their national championship in great shape.

Causing much comment was the entering of Bobby Grayson, Portland high school sprint ace in the 100-yard dash. He has been clocked at 9.8 this season and will give the big boys plenty, if not too much, competition. BEEP-BEEP Period (.) Co-ops Defeat Viking Manor Team 8 to The Co-op intramural baseball team defeated the Viking Manor nine May 25, by a score of 8 to 6. The Kitchen Crew lads won the first half of the baseball series, and the Co-op won the second half, making them tied for the championship of the intramural league. They will play a game sometime next week for the championship. The teams holding the one, two, three positions in the series are: Kitchen Crew and Co-op tied for first place position; Daffodils, second place. • :—; — * gt; HAWAIIAN CRUISE TO BE OFFERED TO ALL Staging the meet in a torrential rain which would have been ideal to stage a crew race, Coach Sam Carver and the Viking thin-clads returned to their home campus Sunday after taking second place in the tri-Normal track and field meet, which was held at Cheney. incidentally Cheney proved to be the best "ducks" and emerged from the drenching with 71 1-3 points, while the Vikings trailed with 43, followed by the' Ellensburg Wildcats, who had 16 2-3. l . ' Tenth Annual Meet The meet last Saturday was the tenth annual tri-Normal track and field meet. Johnny Gable broke one of the two records shattered when he broad jumped 22 feet, beating the old record by 11 7-8 inches/while Jim Davis, Viking star stick topper, beat his own record in the high hurdles when he hopped over them in 15.4 seconds. Bannon, of Cheney, tied the record of 22.4 in the 220- yard dash, being forced to the limit by Schelaty in the feature race of the day.

NEW SCIENCE COURSE OFFERED THIS SPRING INTERESTS TEACHERS "Through its extension department, a field course in elementary science will be offered at Normal this quarter," says Mrs. May Love-gren. Its purpose is to give teachers, particularly grade instructors, information and experience which will aid them in presenting science materials to children. The work will include plant and animal life and is in charge of Miss Leona Sundquist. The class will meet for six Saturdays during the spring quarter. The first meeting was held on Saturday, April 16, at 9 a. m. in room 201 of the school. The dates for the following five meetings will be determined at the first meeting of the .class.

BEGINNING OF WEEK O'Donnell, Howell, Edgar, Fiala, and Cox Pass Approval of Committee FORTY-FIVE GIRLS UP (By ARVD3 GRIFFEN) Until next week the winner of the Representative Co-ed Crown of the Washington State Normal at Bellingham, will remain a dark secret to an anxiously waiting associated student body. It will take considerable time to have pictures taken of the victorious co-ed queen and cuts made for the Northwest Viking. Five Nameft Those who took part in the final tests of the contest held today were: Elsie O'Donnell, Nellie Cox, Vaughn Howell, Helen Edgar, and Dorothy Fiala. Out" of a nominated field of 45 starters the co-ed committee narrowed the field to the above named quintet of campus favorites. It was extremely difficult for the committee, who have been working on this contest for some time, to finally decide on the five most outstanding co-eds in school. Arguments started, meek-voiced opinions were drowned, committee members swore by the qualifications of their candidates, grades, activities, - vivacity, poise, and a thousand and one other qualifications entered into the debate. Finally after a lengthy session the group centered their battery of questions on the names of five defenseless girls with the'result that each one is qualified to wear the title of Bellingham Normal's Representative Co-ed. Interest Runs High During the short period that the contest has been running, student interest has run rampant; nominations coming in tremendous numbers. This contest is something new, different and interest-stimulating. The contest committee is indeed to be complimented on the efficient and smooth-working manner in which they have handled the contest. Klipsun Pictures Planned All arrangements have been completed for the contest winner to have a full page picture of herself in the '32 Klipsun and a tentative program has been completed whereby the four rimners-up may have their photographs on the following page of the Klipsun. The Associated Press will also carry the winner's picture to all parts of the United States from the Herald building, thanks to the management of the Bellingham Herald. , ' Picture in Viking In next week's issue of the Northwest Viking the winner's picture will appear in all its glory, and a story will be printed detailing ^the lucky maiden's attributes. Untilithat time the air around fair Normal remains charged with suspense. i .- V CALENDAR FRD3AY—April 15. 4 p. .in., Rec Hour in Bij Gym.

The play, which consisted of three acts, was written by the children. The action takes place in a monastery, a castle and a serf's home.

H. Fisher, was explained to the board of trustees, Wednesday night, April 6th. Mr. Fisher has made a study of the problem and hopes to make cuts where they will do the least harm. In order to trim the Normal school budget for the remainder of the biennium by about $33,000, a step made necessary by shrinkage in revenue, salaries and wages of everyone employed here, from president to janitor, will have to be reduced. The board re-elected the same faculty for 1932-33, and elected for the summer training school faculty, Miss Esther Dunham, Miss Refa Dick, and Miss Audrey Packham.

His paper provoked a great deal of discussion. Research Dinner Held Dr. Masters and Dr. Upshall attended a dinner meeting of those members interested in research work. A summary was presented by a number of schools, among them Cheney Normal, Washington State College, University of Washington, and University of Oregon. Research methods outlined by various members showed what they had 6een doing in their schools. At the meeting it was decided, that research titles be given to all those interested. Dr. Masters and Dr. Upshall were appointed to make sure each member of the group became acquainted as to what the other members were doing. "We, Dr. Masters and I, both feel that the meeting was extremely worth while and stimulating," said Dr. Upshall; "One reason being that it was made up of those interested and actually working in, that field." .. 1 ••"'"' • • •.

The candidates of yesterday are the officers of tomorrow. We salute you students who won the student confidence and have been placed as officers of the Associated students. It is to be hoped that the election to office will leave no mark upon the student body other than a realization of the import and responsibility of a student office. TO ACCEPT an office in the Students' Association is to accept a trust. To accept a nomination for an office is to make a pledge of co-operation. To be elected to an office shows that by number a majority of the members of the student body have placed confidence in your ability at leadership. ''REGARDLESS of platform the student officers are bound to one definite goal: To serve the Students' Association. We, the students, also are bound—to co-operation. ; John B.

Lucille Jordan and Earl Brock were seen studying so-o-o industriously in the Viking office the other evening—and what does that make Gene Swanson? Of course "Sam" Carver is up to her usual tricks-it seems to be a toss-up between Bruce Kibble and Gordon Leen this time—with the odds in favor of Bruce at present! Speaking of domesticity—Pat Allan carrying Mary-del Conrad's purse as they both saunter in with muddy feet—and who should they met but Winnie Nolte!— careful of those chaps with a reddish tint to, their hair, Marydel. You can just tell by the way that Grace Finlay and the Albert boy stroll from side to side down the walk that they're having an awfully nice time together! Mr. Hoppe says the play-casting committee is all right in its way but he can't get it to agree with him! Old-timers and those not so old would like to know if there is any definite connection between the name of our fair playground, Normalstad and a certain Mr. Kolstad, "popular" here of yore? And this week I will introduce Roy Sundstrom, connoisseur of feminine beauty, master of the Hunt and Peck on the L. C. Smith, possessor of one very high I. Q., and former staff member of the Viking. "Oh, tell me, pretty maiden, are there any more at home like you?" he muses—gazing on the Evich girl—and I murmur—in return, "Benney sent me'.' And now "Dick" Dickson doesn't speak—could it be that he heard about the little quip that almost went into the paper a couple of weeks ago?

' SfaS- initiates posing as prominent members of the dormitory were apprehended and found guilty of heinous- crimes fit only for hardened criminals. Such things as having gentlemen callers in one's rooms on Sunday and disturbing the peace of mind of the men in the dining room because of the color of one's hair were considered unforgivable by the judge. As a general sentence the girls were ordered to appear at dinn e r Tuesday evening in P. E. suits, long stockings, galoshes, berets worn down to: their eyebrows with their cars sticking out, faces rouged all over and carrying umbrellas and tennis rackets. They wore mittens, ate with the handles of their spoons, and sat on the floor. Laundry Prices High The boys on the campus have been complaining about the high price of laundry so the initiates were asked' to wash and iron shirts for prominent men students. They returned the shirts to their owners at dinner Tuesday and explained how they got them. Dirtiest Cords Picked. J im Knapp's cords were given the honor of being the dirtiest pair on the campus and were brought to dinner for inspection. Preston Wright's golf knickers, Johnny Lensrud's diamond ring, Leslie Howard's Viking lt;Manor pin, Huston Bow's Knights of the Hook sweater and two brilliant ties were among the trophies secured by these hard digging girls. .

The Fashionable Coed Big Pnie Given to Welclv al Valkyrie Party Friday Nite By JUNE WELCH WITH our nose pressed to the gayly decorated shop windows, we enviously gaze at the many attractive styles that are being shown for this spring and summer. Through a mind filled with longing for that hoped-for check from home, we finally decide that one of those adorable two or three-piece knitted sport suits is what we want most of all. ALTHOUGH we women of the Normal do not need anything to make us look younger, those smart little boleros that are so popular now, certainly do. QOMEONE has said, "Watch the *^ rib region for that is the place that will tell whether a skirt is a skirt or a creation." That surely applies to the newer skirts this year, for they are very high-waisted. They all follow the figure closely and end either in pleats or a slight flair. And by the way, contrary to many of the skirts you see on the street, the really smart ones are between twelve and fourteen inches from the floor. * * * * f DON'T need to say anything about * all these awfully good looking slip-over sweaters that everyone is wearing nowadays except that they come in all of the high colors, many of them carrying out the bicentennial idea, especially the bold blue ones with the big brass or silver buttons. ¥ gt;ECAUSE of their large success *"* last summer, polo coats are again at the top of the ladder. But the closing and the elbow cuff length of the sleeves determine whether it is a this year's or last year's coat. The big buttons make it look like a uniform. Many of them have collars' and many of them haven't, it just depends on individual choice. White, as usual for summer, is very good. Going right down the scale of colors the most popular are white, eggshell, tan, beige, green, all shades of blue, and a few of the warmer shades of brown. * * * * l^JEVER ^before have scarfs been * ^ worn so much. They are all very bright and colorful, and are either tied like an Ascot tie or with a bow. They do give that added touch. ;.,.•• FJOR active sports the beret takes * first place as an all-season hat. Another new style is the extremely tailored hat. It is a perky little chapeau that shows the hair 'way back of the ;ear on the left side. j ^ S "We sibwlyUpercbiate yback- to #!£; the library, for another hour or ^a#;fontft ^ w e :^ teacher and get a great big salary j^-^e(«^^!uiy!^^ (DEBBY ALTOSE) If you don't believe that playing cooWe at a party is fun, you should have been at the Valkyrie party last Friday night. It sure keeps you up and going and there certainly was a shark at it there. Her name is June Welch and she copped the big prize. Since, so many people were kind of new at the game, there were three prizes given for the low ones. They call these "Booby prizes" and they were won by Debby Altose, Helen, Tucker and Miss Beatrice Doty. Different Game They played a new kind of game in which the idea was not to get the pin with the ribbon put on you. All evening the people who got it tried to give it to someone else. Everyone thought that a penalty would have to be paid by the people who had them in the end but it turned out that they were given prizes instead. These were called "Penalty prizes": and were won by Harriet Perkins and Catherine McDonald. .'!'••" : Dance and Eat I forgot to tell you .we danced for awhile first to music played by Kathryn Berkeley. And after we ate, and ate, and ate,- cake, cookies, ice cream, you should have seen all of it. By the • way,: refreshments were served in the "laundry room" of the cafeteria. NEAL MILLER HONORED Neal Miller, son of Dr. Irving Miller, of the Normal faculty, has been given a, teaching fellowship for the next year in the department of psychology at the University of California, situated at Berkeley. He did his undergraduate work at the Bellingham Normal School and the University of Washington. He is now in the first year of graduate work, studying under the direction of Dr. Terman, at Stanford university. In connection with his work as a teaching fellow he will continue his study toward the doctorate. School Represented by Faculty Members at Seattle Banquet I n honor of Mr. Charles Beard and his wife, an informal dinner was giVeh at the Via Fontana dining room, Wilsonian hotel, in Seattle, at 6:45 p. m., April 8. The banquet was arranged by the social science and technology faculties of the University of Washington, and science teachers of Seattle's public schools. * There were ten accepted invitations sent to the Bellingham State Normal School: Dean James Bever, bean W.

Challenges are numerous and many hotly contested matches promise to feature the tennis, golf, horseshoe and handball ^activities. Ladder Active The horseshoe ladder shows the greater activity with many changes having taken place. Close matches have featured the contests with slim point margins being gained by the victors. Francisco leads the ladder at the present, having advanced from third position with a 40 to 49 victory over Wahl. Francisco secured a better hold on the top by turning back A. Nelson's challenge to the tune of a 50 to 48 victory. Myron Chandler, runner up in last year's tournament, advance with victories over Wasley and Nelson with both matches being close. The first four places are held down by Francisco first, followed in order by Nelson, Wahl and Fegley. Tennis Popular Tennis, the most popular sport with more than twenty-five entries, has been hindered the greatest by the inclement weather but with promises of lots of sunshine great activity looms for the future. At this time many challenges are posted and the end of the week promises to show many changes in standings on the ladder. With the veterans getting in shape and the promising new material shaping up, Coach Carver should find a lot of good material from which to select this year's team which will defend the Tri-Normal championship won lastvyear. Orloff tops the ladder followed in order by Rasmussen, McLean and Bond for the first four places. Handball Same The top places on the handball ladder remains the same as last week with Hammitt at the top followed by Arisen (, Dunn, and Fegley. Paul Anson protected his second place standing by defeating Fegley 21-12 and 21-8 in the only match played so far. This Carr person seems to have designs on the golf pinnacle with two .victories in two day's play. Carr defeated McLean in one match with Strandberg being the other victim. Knuppenburg, who tops the ladder, faces a challenge from Blythe, the holder of second place and a former Whatcom High school star.. Other challenge matches are posted and are scheduled to be played immediately. o W.A.A.Girls Awarded Sweaters in Meeting on Monday Afternoon Awarding of sweaters to three girls and the passing of suggested changes to the constitution by a unanimous vote was the main business accomplished by the W. A. A. at its meeting held Monday afternoon, April 11, in room 119. 4 Helen Howell, vice-president of the association and chairman of the .constitution committee, took charge of the meeting. Constitution Rewritten The entire constitution has been rewritten and revised in order to make the, activities fit in with the new three-year curriculum. The entire system of awards has been changed, with the point system no longer used. The principal changes made in the constitution have to do with the earning of awards. Emblems, recognizing participation on any first class team, are to be awarded by the Associated Students and presented by the W. A. A. Certificates for participation on all-star teams will be awarded in the same way. Sweater Requirements - I n order to receive the official sweater of the organization, a woman must now receive eleven first class team awards, at least four all-star team awards, and be accepted by the'W. A. A. council with a majority vote: on the basis of health and personal standards. . According to the revised constitution a gold block •'•W" phi «h1all be awarded to a : ;wom^ w h w f s ^ b^s team awaro^. Many less important Inter-Class Tracks Meet Is Tomorrow The annual inter-class track hieet will be held tomorrow afternoon on Waldo field, with the first event getting under way at 2 p. m. This yearly meet always produces many thrills besides giving Coach Sam Carver" a lineup on the new material which he will have to develop into this year's track team. On paper it looks as if the upper-classmen will hand the Frosh a drubbing. With two men entered in practically every event it looks as if they will share in most of the point-getting. Although, as in former years, the real power of the Frosh team is untested, and before the day is over they are liable to produce many upsets. Line*up Given The lineup of participants and events in order in which they will be run off follows: Frosh—100-yard dash, Schlilaty, Stiger and Russell; 200-yard dash; Schlilaty, Russell; 440, Stiger, Hall, Becken and Christie; 880, Becken, Osgood; mile, Johanson and Dunn; 2-mile, Johansen, Jones and Wilken-son; mile relay, Stiger, Hall, Becken and Christie; high hurdles, Williams; low hurdles, Williams; javelin, H. Jones; shotput, Becken; discus, Schlilaty, Williams and Dunn; broadjump, Wasley and Williams; high jump, Williams; pole vault, Springford. Upper classmen—100-yard dash, A. Gallenger, Lowe, Charlesworth and Collier; 220-yard dash, Charles-worth and Collier; 440, Davis and Collier; 880, Lovegren and Finley; mile, Duyff; 220-yard low hurdles, Michelson, Gable, Lowe; high hurdles, Michelson and Eacrett; broad jump, Davis, Thomas, Cox, Duyff and Lowe; high jump, Gable, Lowe and Eacrett; pole vault, Collier, Eacrett; discus, VanOver and Moe; shotput, Moe, VanOver and Brewer; javelin, Moe, VanOver and Brewer; relay, Gable, Thomas, Duyff and Cox. WASHINGTON HOSES TO CALIFORNIA IN CREW RACE LAST SATURDAY The University of Washington varsity lost to the Bears by eighteen lengths or one-quarter of a mile in their annual crew race. The water was the roughest in which racing boats have ever competed on Lake Washington. The Huskies suffered the worst defeat any crew has ever taken in 29 years of Pacific Coast intercollegiate rowing. The Washington coach, Ulbfickson, said bad water conditions beat us. California had the ligthter eights and rode the waves better. The junior varsity three-mile event was won by the California Bears. The California "Jayvees" held the lead the entire race. For a while it looked as though the Huskies would catch the Blue and Gold, but the powerful Bears kept a safe lead. CONDUCTED BY TERRY COOK Trying to write a column on a balmy Spring day, while thinking about things we would like to be, is-r-well, it's ;not very nice, so here goes, and when the next rainy day; comes along just address all letters of rebuke to this overburdened, columnist, and he might be in the mood to read them. Guess Jack Dempsey started something. Anyway he moved something, when he started his recent comeback attempt, for now the market is glutted up with ex-champs grown old and feeble trying to start a comeback. The latest attempt is being made by Jess Willard, 300-poond behometh, who has stated he will again don gloves in the ring. Is Waldo field busy these days? You ought to go out and take a look one of these fine afternoons. As we enter we see an Intramural game going on, with Sam Carver calling the strikes and balls, and mind you, being very careful how he calls them. Tiring of this we move a few hundred feet over to the varsity baseball diamond where Pop Gunn is working his charges;PPPPP

Normalette is the sammer sister to Normalite, the re^ii^ ieature, tradition, and—oh, yes—column of The Northwest ViWn^ M^en nobody comes to assembly—wnen the main library is crowded, and when some maUcibus creature, pours glue on proxy's big arin chair—then -is the \ time for Normalette to get gruff, to set up on her haunches and growl. ; ••.. w. S. N. S.— •. Step right up, folks, and see our staff. Our staff-heh-heh-our staff. First introducing the editor: Mr. -Raymond Kenneth Craft, who, by the way, is away today. And, say, there are really very few editors who stay home when such an important edition issues forth such as this. In walks Mr. Eldon A. Bond who will attempt, to be the associate. editor. •;• Attempt—Eldbn— attempt! And Miss Catherine Morse also an assistant to the editor, will continue Normalette. For the sports department we have not only the honest endeavors of Jimmie Prendergast but also the sly influence of Mr. Bond in his'columnT- "Bpttled by Bond". V v To interpret the life of the Student's association is the colossal task of Lyle k. Summers, bur star reporter and, incidentally, business manager. Mr. Charles Dewey, also a star, will also ... shine, •*upon our readers in his reflections gleaned from the rather important news situations which actually grace campus life. It may be his will to keep us in-touch with our school at the Biological Station at Friday Harbor, Washington. ——W. S. N. S. For your approval we also place in your hand today a four-page Northwest Viking Alumni Supplement... Read it carefully (every word). Believe it. Then either frame it or send it to your less enlightened friends who may live in Muddump, Nebraska. Seriously, however, we believe that you of this summer session may be able to establish in this school a means not only to continue to publish a worthwhile monthly magazine, but also establish an alumni secretary. Do you believe that, it is a worthwhile thing to have a much better organised •' alumni association,., a., strong monthly publication, and a central means whereby to administer an exchange of what is growing and developing both in the mother school here also in- the teaching field?

The job/of'Working this thing out, captaining it, and getting it across satisfactorily to. not only the student body at large but to our thousands of alumni is your responsibility'.

In addition to the art work, class and club pictures, interest probably centers around the athletic section which is unusually well illustrated with realistic 'and natural action pictures. One of the new additions in the annual is in the Training school section which was unusually well planned and thought out. The annual will be of especial interest to teachers because of the glimpses into the real work-a-day world of the training school children, which these pictures give. These show children from the pre-primary class through the eighth: grade, in activities characteristic of their school life. The pictures are accompanied by brief explanations regarding the activities and purposes of the training school. ~ The staff of the annual deserves credit for the organized help given to the editor. Gnagey, Editor Bernice Gnagey, editor; John Thorpe, business manager; Miss Lucy Kangley, ? editorial advisor, and Miss Hazel Breakey, art advisor;- supervised the work of the staff, and engineered the annual work. ••;.

Miss Frederickson is recognized as a true artist arid she has received her training from such masters as Sevcik, Czerwonsky and kochanski. She is accorded a place among leading violinists, having won many prizes and a fellowship at Jtiiiliard Musical Foundation in New York. The young musician's critics pronounce Her a sincere and earnest musician and her tone is reported as unusually smooth and eloquent with a cbristarit variety of. color, great warmth and notable technical skill. . Toured Europe When 'Miss Fredericksoh toured Europe with the Swedish Glee club of Chicago- in 19237 ' the press reports of Stockholm's papers were as follows: "The Glee Club is a male chorus, but it's 'Star' is,Ebba Fredericksbn, and she is a charming young lady. Miss Fredericksbn is a violinist of high attainments, and although this is her first European tour, we feel sure many more will follow. All_the comment on her playing have been very favorable, and she has received'-'high" "praise from all the critics throughout the tour." Other press reports speak just as favorably about her personal fascination and charm as about her artistry.

Bernice Ghagey and hex staff should be congratulated on the publication.

This time the interruption comes in the form of shuffling fete that are making ho effort to be quiet. But we have recourse against this last, he is a-student. Well, how about it? —Student. easy This , ^ie Training^ School The -Training School classes, which are held from 9 to 12, are well under way."

It is ®ur intention to publish an, eight or twelve-page supplement oFa professional nature every quarter, and make it accessible to some two thousand of ithe teaching alumni. Whether or not such a publication will fill the need of adequate contact betwen the alumni and the school is a question that can. only be settled through serious consideration, and we Will appreciate any criticism that may help us in working out our plans. '.,..'..-.' CAMPUS TRADITIONS : Because traditions are so much more "potent than regulations, the Board of Control and the Students' Association should create a feW traditions in regard to the care of the campus, and see that the new traditions are advertised in the Blue Book and elsewhere until they are accepted wholeheartedly by the student body. Normal, through the efforts of a gardener who is also a landscape artist, is developing as beautiful a little campus as could be found in the whole United States. If the gardener -Would be supported with the consideration of all of the students, it could be made much finer. 'Yet, as a matter of fact, careless students and training school youngsters do everything to the campus that should not be done. They chase golf balls and tennis balls through the shrubs and over the grass, they cut across the Jawn at all of ••'the' corners, often when an effort is being made to seed or transplant flowers or grass, and otherwise mutilate in a •little while what it has taken the gardener and his staff some hours to prepare, and nature some days to grow. „.-, l r the students in general could once be made conscious of what the gardener is doing, and trying to do,' and could be induced to accept a traditional courtesy in their attitude toward the beautiful things of our campus garden, the gardener would be able to do much more in the fifteen or sixteen hours a. day he puts in in beautifying our Alma Mater. thirty pupils to each grade and are a homogenous group. There, was such a great demand for observation during the summer that two teachers were required for each grade. In! the. primary grades the classes/had to be divided into three groups. •- Children Disappointed Many of the city school children were disappoihetd as half of the training school pupils returned for the summer session. In the third, fourth and fifth grades there might have been two classes as there was such a large number that wanted to enroll. : : 5;(By His ^wqrst Friend) ;d5^'editor sat back in his chair and groaned luxuriously, is 3tt^.easiesV7jpb I ever had' said; as he stretched. » "There isn't anything to do," he continued.' f'The paper runs itself.

I tell these punks to go out and get about twenty columns of news a week, and when they get it, I tell them to put headlines on it. Me, I sit back and write editorials, asking somebody to do something and-why ain't they done it before." Just then the door burst open. "Say," yelled a Frosh, "I just lost all the heads you sent me to the printers with. And the sports editor says he forgot—there's a game tomorrow afternoon and he;s got to make over the sport page.

We are all pleasure seekers; some of us enjoy: our work, and others enjoy popular pastimes. We can all go to dances and we can all play games. By., severing.: connections., wtth.. a little currency, we can all attend these new laughing, talking, singing affairs... Undoubtedly the age old custom of "wine and song" is still with us... Why do we want entertainment, enjoyment, popular pastimes? Why do we desire amuse* ment? It causes the mind to forget time. Entertainment is not the thing. Time is everything. That fourth dimension that has- so greatly puzzled science and civilization, time, is the cause of life. The geologist . says, - "Geologically speaking—". The economists say, "The modern tendency is toward—" The dreamers say, *In the future—" It readily- seems that we are all controlled, by a time-clock... We punch in when we are born and. we punch out when we die. We are all., "punched., in"., this quarter.:: Time has been, afforded? us. We are all set to seek better methods of passing the fourth dimension. The. following material has been listed to better help us all to make the quarter seem like the smallest possible fraction of living. There is a limited amount of studying permitted this quarter. One may attend nineteen hours of classes, and one shqjuld study two hours for each hour of class work. Now, I always did think that was a large assignment, so to our .program we will add hut two hours of. studying a Week. If we add thirty-five hours a week of sleep7 thai will leave us with one hundred twelve hours. ~ It is advisable for all of us to get in at least four hours of tennis a day. A scientific study will disclose that the natural functions of the :body cannot continue unless a person plays twenty-eight hours of tennis a week. This leaves us with but eighty-four hours of time. A weekly event occurs on Friday from 4:00 till 5:00../ The poletariat has incorrectly termed it *'Rec" hour. We are left with eighty-three hours and grave doubts. One of the interesting features of co-educational life is dates. I refer to that type of activity wherein two people cause time to pass more rapidly. Time is constant, hut the interpretation is varied. A good average would he two hours a day, leaving but sixty-nine hours.

It is clearly understood that any individual not joining this fun will never be able to receive his diploma. And this leaves us with but three hours of time. , Terrestially speaking, 'the study of the celestial Sphere should; occu- ; py the time of. every individual for at least three hours a week.

The summer sport program for men was officially opened last Tuesday at 4 o'clock at a meeting held in Coach Sam Carver's office to draw up a schedule for the four teams that have entered the Intramural Basketball league. Managers have been busily engaged the past week in signing up the most promising of the athletes and former stars. The games will be played Tuesday and-Thursday afternoon at 4 o'clock, in the little gymnasium.

Hannegan Pass To lovers of nature and the woods, probably the most interesting trip will be that to Hannegan Pass, which separates Ruth Mountain from Goat Mountain. This small divide, situated in the heart of the Mount Baker region is perhaps the last resort of wild animal life in the United States. It is very unusual when goats, bears and deer are not seen from the summit of the pass. Ruth Mountain, usually climbed on Sunday morning, has about the best snowslide offered in the Cascades, and mountaineers who have previously visited the pass will recall with interest some of the snow-work participated in up there. From Ruth Mountain, on a clear day, the Mount Baker Lodge may be seen. Schedule of Trips June 21—-Lookout Mountain, by stage from Normal Campus, 8 a. m. One day trip. June 24—Deadman's Point.

The dollars and cents view of things may be fundamental, it is true, but fundamentals are so drab and colorless that they are hardly worth our consideration. It is its nuances, not its broad bases, which make life worth living. Long long ago thinkers who lived in .an age much wiser tha nours, settled upon goodness, beauty, and t r u th as the truly worth-while things. To them the exquisitely contoured whiteness of an egg was vastly more significant than the pleasant sensation it aroused in the stomach. W.S.N.S. But the worKings or the economic mind, Waylett's whinings and Pierron's precocious penny-precepts, are interesting and important to the extent that they someday may be dictating the amount of tax we pay on our cigarettes. So it is disappointing to note that the feature page questionnaire indicated very few people who read these columns, while many publicity puppies searched avidly through the back-door gossip of Keyhole, trying to find their own names. W.S.N.S. Frisby Fresk again comes front and Center with a letter from his aster which reads, "Brother, you have made a horrible mistake. Our iomcal had kittens" W.S.N.S.- Lincoln Colcord in his "Conversation in a Garden", reprint in "Essays of Our Times", describes a situation as follows: "'Look how the standard of living has been raised'. " ' I am more concerned with the standard of thinking. And what of the standard of dying? From all that I read, this standard was higher in your past generations.' " But Colcord was wrong. How many a noble human in modern times has cried in truly deathless tones which ages hence will still re-echo down the corridors of time, "I'd die for dear old Communism!" W.S.N.S. / / Karl Marx had. ever attended Normal school it would be much easier to understand his ballyhoo about "the struggle in the classes". W.S.N.S. Rec Tourneys Discard; Start Second Round Allan, Carroll, and Waylett Show Skill At Chess; Richardson Beats Fisher New Challenges Listed Bridge Game Play-offs Scheduled; Pinochle Match Slack We learn here that education is for the child, that it must satisfy his needs. Oftentimes we wonder if the curriculum builders at this school are practicing exactly what they preach A number of courses do not satisfy the students who take them. Many duplicate the work already covered in previous classes. At the end of each quarter ques tionnaires could easily be given out in the various classes concerning the manner in which the course was taught, its educational value, its professional value, calling for suggestions relating to possible improvement. Soon, we think, the Normal would be turning out better college professors W.S.N.S. Speaking of the legislative jam at Olympia, thank Heaven some of the profs here cant slop the clock at the end of the quarter and go on teaching! W.S.N.S. BOOK REVIEW , (in the accepted N.Y. manner) If you haven't read Alduous Huxley's "Brave New World", don't. It isn't worth the intelligent reader's consideration. (Isn't that clever, making you out to be intelligent?). Furthermore, the thing isn't well handled at all. The social satire is awkward. The style is clumsy. May I say further that the author came to the wrong conclusion. He should never have written the book. He should never have been' born. Furthermore, t h e publishers wouldn't give us any fee for reviewing the book. With one round of games completed, champion card wielders are emerging from the ranks of recreation enthusiasts who nightly convene in the corner of Edens hall dining room. A survey Tuesday revealed that Wilson Waylett, Leonard Carroll and Pat Allan have withstood preliminary chess duels. Checker victors Don Richardson and Bill Alexander are scheduled for a playoff match. Richardson defeated Vene Fisher and Alexander defeated Bob Stuart. Results of the bridge intramurals show the following triumphant teams. Lindsley-Lahtonen defeated Van Hise-Victor; Bell-Johnson, Nor-ris- Lindquist; Bailey-Kendall, M. Nelson-Weeks; Borgen-J. Jabocson, Hartley-Robinson; Campbell-Wilkinson; Crimmins-Richardson. Lola Bailey and Clyde Kendall will meet Bob Lindsley and Harold Lahtonen. Dick Bell and Clifford Johnson will meet Jerry Jacobson and Bernice Borgen. Ruth Beeman and Ruth Carmichael are scheduled to play Elizabeth Nelson and Wynne Campbell. "I don't know what's the matter with the interest in pinochle," remarked Dick Newlean, recreation director. "With the exception of Russell Stockton, no competitor has tried his mettle." Deft Play Expected Coming up are intellectual squabbles between Leonard Carroll and Wilson Waylett, Pat Allan and Ralph Shenenberger. The next elimination will leave the chess finalist. Harry Winsor's napping jolted predictions, according to dope-sters when Waylett attempted the seventh game of his career and upset the veteran. Carroll took Oscar Starlund. New challenges are being posted. The bulletin board reveals that Vene Fisher is summoned to two games of checkers. "We shall be forced to cut out matches when the participants wait too long to play off their challenges," emphasizes Louis Shaffer, promoter of the recreational program. o Special Assembly Will Be Called Monday for Member of Parliament Vacation Is Near Spring Quarter Classes Begin on Monday, April 1 Spring vacation for Normal school students will begin March 22. Examinations for winter quarter are being conducted Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday of next week. Pre-registration for the spring session was completed March 6. Classes begin Monday, April 1 at 8 o'clock. Little variation in enrollment between spring and winter quarters is expected. Those who filed schedules for enrollment but who do not pay their fees on April 1 or 2, will pay the late registration fee* of one dollar. o Committees To Be Chosen Next Week According to Orloff Campus Day Plans Are Begun; Students Work in Morning, Dance at Night Ford Reports On Book Store To Committee Miss Jennie Lee, Scotch parliamentarian, will speak in a special assembly Monday at 10:40 on the subject "Decline of English Liberty". Classes meeting at this time will meet on Tuesday. Miss Lee studied at Edinburgh university, where she won several scholarships and prizes. While pursuing the teaching profession she became active in the Independent Labor party. In 1929 she was elected to represent that party in the Houes of Commons as a member from North Lanark. Having completed her studies for the law degree, she has been admitted to the English bar.

This date should enable participants to perfect their manuscript during vacation. "I feel that the contest will be worth while. Creative ability often requires the spur of a contest to bring it out. I encourage students to compete if they are interested in short story writing," urges Dr. A. C. Hicks. The two stories adjudged the winners in the Normal contest under sponsorship of the Northwest Viking will be submitted to the national contest for prize awards. Harry Goheen, Glen Greseth, Wilson Waylett, Ralph Hofman, Dorothy Baker, and others already indicated interest in the contest. o IR Club Members Plan Their Quarterly Social International Relations club mem-, bers will hold their quarterly party at the home of Mr. L. A. Kibbe 215 Twenty-first street, at 8:00 o'clock, Saturday evening. Anne Matheson, program chairman, has planned many games for the evening. All club members are invited. No Quorum Meeting Is Declared Committee To.Hear Co-op Report Application Considered Seven Viking Pins, Seven Basketball Awards To Be Made For the second time this quarter, no quorum was present at the Board of Control meeting last Wednesday. In order that the time would not be entirely wasted, President Gordon Millikin created a committee of the members present to hear the report of Sam Ford, manager of the Co-op, on conditions in the book-store. This report will be brought by the committee to the next Board meeting. Other business on the calendar for the March 20 meeting concerns the Northwest Viking . and basketball awards. The Board will consider the applications of Ralph Shenenberger and Victor Dickinson for re-election to the positions of editor and business manager of the paper respectively. The seven students who applied for Viking pins, having completed the required four quarters of writing, are Syd Lines, Robert Thy-geson, Nancy Jane Smith, Nelson Ault, Phil Campbell, Arne Johnsen. and George Lovos. If the Board accepts the recommendation of the P. E. department, the following players will receive sweaters the first of next quarter: Dick Carver, Harold Fitzer, Marius Vandergriend, Chester Dombroski, Sheldon Stutz, Tony Zambas, and Dan Gagnon. o New Court Council Will Be Presented State Legislature Stops Clock; Appropriation and Construction Bills Not Approved by Senate House Passes Bill for Salaries and Operations; Money for Physical Education Building and the Completion of Athletic Field May Be Allowed, Although the time for the adjournment of the legislature was passed last night at 12 o'clock, the clock was stopped and the time extended. Up to the time of publication, the appropriation bill for the Bellingham Normal school had not been passed by the senate. Early in the week the bill was passed by the house.

Work On Campus Day Campus Day activities are to be continued, according to the action taken by the Board of Control last week. The Board named Monford Orloff general chairman of the affair, and he has already begun to plan the program of thie day. The Board no doubt realizes that, even though little work can be accomplished, Campus day plays a part in school life. If you remember, the forenoon of last year's Campus day was practically a vacation, since very little could be found for the students to do at the school. However, in the afternoon, sports activities interested a majority of the students, and a dance in the evening closed the day's program. The problem facing this year's chairman will be whether or not the forenoon period should be utilized. If he is not able to find some school project that can be completed by the students, we will be in the same position as last year. It has been suggested that we have regular classes in the morning, with a student talent assembly at 1 1 o'clock, and the afternoon activities as usual. Yet this would have a tendency to ruin the spirit of the day. If last year's plans are followed, with the mornings free, it is doubtful whether the majority of the students will come to the afternoon program. Orloff has a real problem to face, and will need the cooperation of the students if Campus day is to prove worthwhile enough to continue in the future. Some Critics By Elmer Lade It is the habit of most individuals to express pique at life in general, but few bother to focus their spleen so undividedly on the human race as Walter B. Pitkin in his "Short Introduction to the History of Human Stupidity." Mr. Pitkin is mad. Armed with a dictaphone and an eye turned to catch the tiniest instance of mental lethargy he stalks through our times trampling card houses at every step. Off to one side, and exempt from his bullying, is a minute per cent of the world's population that acts with courageous wisdom on all occasions. The rest of us provide material for psychopathic research.. The book is interesting and undoubtedly true. We do order our lives with a marvelous lack of intelligence. Still one reader wished Mr. Pitkin had been more the Olympus-perched satyrist, whose sides fair split at the spectacle of slack-jawed millions, and not so much the dyspeptic magistrate. He rarely smiles and the total effect of his massive book is numbing. Incidentally the book is in the Normal library. A Little Type Concerning Things Buried in the messed reports coming from the NEA convention were the words of President Franklin D. Roosevelt, "I am glad that the central theme of your convention is 'Social Change and Education'. Education must light the path for social change. The social and economic problems confronting us are growing in complexity. The more complex and difficult the problem, the more essential it is to provide broad and complete education; that kind of education that will equip us as a nation to decide these problems for the best interest of all concerned." Persaps Red-baiter Hearst imbibed some of the presidents renowned graciousness, blindfolded himself, refused to pin a "pink" tail on the leader of the Democratic party. ^ SuLvNormalite gt;!• By Pat Allan's Understudy (Written in deep thought in the shadows ol the asylum.)

Once, in a fit of annoyance, he wrote an essay condemning teamsters who chose to crack their whips under his window. The noise, he said, was driving him mad. Officials took the matter up, and soon there was no more whip popping in Berlin. We, living in the age of radios, might reasonably feel that Schopenhauer knew nothing at all about noise. Splenetic Analysis lt; • • By Wilson Waylett By their advertizers shall ye know them. The twin organs of the up-to-the-minute literati, Nation and New Republic, announce the latest plays, lectures books. Ads for Soviet American Security corporation and Intourist indicate the radical turn of their readers' minds. Also appealing to the intelligentsia are such magazines as Scribner's, American Mercury, Forum, and their ilk, characterized by ads of books and Mediter-ranian cruises. Does one unjustly attribute the frequently appearing Falstaff Press ads to a certain neuroticism on the part of the audience? If one is to judge by the London Mercury, the British intelligentsia is more staid and respectable. They seem concerned with life insurance, cold remedies and cures for-baldness. The readers of American Legionaire must include those ex-soldier boys who can still buy Ford V-8's and consume quantities of Four Roses Whiskey and Dixie Belle Gin. One advertizer provides a ducky male corset for that embarrassing bay-window. From his gloomy tower Oswald Spengler sees Western culture sliding into the state of desuetude we have so long associated with Asiatic peoples. He is not well known among boisterous Nordic planners, but some men read his book "The Decline of the West" 'and never feel quite the same thereafter. In line with Miss Jennie Lee in assembly next Monday on the decline of English liberty, Dominions Secretary Jim Henry Thomas unwittingly let fall the hint that the general election due in 1936 might be postponed by His Majesty's government.

After hearing these speeches every time the legislature has met for tne last three years, we are forced to admit that the most recent one sounded the most optimistic of tnem all. We might, after all, be able to use the new P. E. building ourselves instead of listening to our grandchildren telling us about the fun that they have in it. With all kidding aside, I don't believe that we need to tell anyone of a l l ^ h e benefits that a building of the sort that is planned would bring to this institution. One needs only to witness an intramural game played in our so-called "cheese-box" gym to see that it is imperative that the legislature should act favorably. Until they do, the physical education department, intramural sports, and varsity sports will never be able to function in a manner worthy of an institution of this kind * * * We doff our hats this week to Jim Ahern, manager of the Port-siders, for the finest display of sport-manship we have ever seen. Too much of a sport to win a championship by playing against four men, he jerked one of his own players and then his men proceeded to toss away a ten-point lead to lose the championship to the Northwest Vikings. A bit foolish, you may say, but his high ideals of sportsmanship dictated his action and we commend him for it. It makes the victory for the newspapermen sound a bit hollow. * * * SHORT SHOTS—Interest in golf has increased two to one since its debut as a major sport here last spring . . . Baseball is dieing as a collegiate sport and if allowed to let die here this spring, it will probably never come back again . . . Track prospects are brilliant this year . . .

Unless Fife returns and a pole vault and a weight man are discovered, the cinder season may spell disaster as far as victories are concerned. Prom available material a sprinter will have to be developed out of Holder, Johnsen, Guglomo, Hansen, or Hudson. In the quarter mile, the only possibilities are a new discovery or Dan Gagnon, a basketball star. The middle distance will have Ken-oyer, last year's interscholastic champion, with Van Sargent and Wickstrom. Stiger Will Cover Mile The mile should be well taken care of if Johnny Stiger, last year's mile champion, returns to school, and Bill Taylor gets into shape. The hurdles, high and low, have Holder and Johnsen, respectively, and Tony Zambas, the only letter-men from last year's squad. I n the jumps are Holder and possibly Willard MacKenzie, who plans to enter the spring quarter. He also throws the javelin with Clyde Radder from Lynden. The discus should be taken care of by the two Raymond artists, Guglomo and Zambas, if they hit then-usual stride. The schedule so far shows meets with CPS, May 4, there; University frosh, May 10, there; Cheney, May 18, here, and the tri-normal meet in Ellensburg May 25. There are also possibilities of the Vikings entering a relay carnival at Vancouver April 12. o '• Work Progressing On Draining Field water-holding capacity of the field has been taxed to the utmost and it has again reverted into a lake. A crew of workmen have been occupied during the past few weeks in enlarging the drainage system to carry away the surface water. The composition of the soil makes this work necessary as the water will not easily soak away in the clay soil. When the soil is drained and the appropriations are made for money for the new P. E. building this space will house the new grandstand and athletic field.

Carver, a freshman, and playing his first year of college basketball, was generally conceded to be the most valuable man on the squad during the season and the statistics seem to bear out this opinion. Next Four Bunched Closely The next four men, headed by Zambas, are bunched closely. Dombroski scored 61 points to take third place, two points behind Zambas, while Stutz and Htzer finished in a tie for third, with a total of 59 points.

These teams represent the result of elimination play in nine state districts. Representing the Northwest district are Lynden, Whatcom, and Everett. These three teams are one of the strongest lineups ever sent to the state tournament out of this district. Never before have a greater number of previous winners been represented at the tournament. Included in this list are: Walla Walla, title defender, and winner in 1923 and 1924; Yakima, 1925 champ; Lewis Clark, 1926 winner; Sta 1929 winner, Olympia. Spring Intramurals To Organize Soon Baseball To Be Featured Along With Tennis and Golf "Spring intramurals will be started as soon next quarter as the weather permits," according to Coach Sam Carver. The main sport during the spring is usually soft-ball, Coach Carver said that this year should be no exception. Other sports that will be onered are golf, tennis, and horseshoes. Until the handball courts are rejuvenated there will be no handball. Carver Speaks To Managers As yet there has been no official organization of softball teams, but Carver has talked with representatives from the Northwest Viking, the Kitchen Crew, and the Frosh and he had found that there is a vivid interest in the sport. As to tennis and golf there is little doubt that there will be a large turnout. Schedules ana ladders will be drawn up the first week of school. Lappenbusch To Issue Call For Football Players First Day of Quarter New Men Expected Drill Will Be On Fundamentals And Passing Attack Spring football training will be held again this year when Coach Chuck Lappenbusch issues the call for action Monday, April 1, the opening of the spring quarter. The spring practice session will continue at least two weeks, and Coach Lappenbusch is expecting a large turnout Most of, the members of last season's squad will be back, and in addition to these men a number of •new prospects have been lined up and are expected to be on hand. In order to be eligible for competition next fall they must be in attendance during a previous quarter. New Faces Expected Chief among the new men expected out are Jim Davis from Albany college and Pete Nagradski from last season's U. of W. Frosh squad, two promising backfield men, Pete Klecka, a 210 pound tackle, and Elmo Tooley, from the U. of W. will also report , Homer Tipton, a member of last year's varsity squad at the U has been considering. entering the Normal school and may show up for practice. Besides these men, Coach Lappenbusch expects several other new faces. Ends Needed The big losses from last year's squad are at the ends where both Odell and Coffield are missing. Others who may not be back are Tomco and Davidson. The practice of having spring training sessions was started last year, and according to Coach Lappenbusch had a decided influence on the showing of the team last fall. o After the Show Have a Milkshake 10c Bellingham Drug Cornwall and Magnolia GRIGGS STATIONERY ano PRINTING CO.

It includes an explanation of choral reading and its possibilities in the classroom, an anthology of suitable poems, and a bibliography of choral reading material. Choral reading work with Miss Osborn's fifth grade class in the training school last summer cul minated in an assembly in which rythmic poems by de la Mare, Merryman, Milne, and Frost were read.

This quarter activities of the club were greatly hindered by the basketball schedule, and also by the drama production. Next quarter, however, they will be better able to carry out their plans. It is expected that the club will sponsor a week-end party as well as other social functions. In addition to this, several members of the group may produce a play for assembly in the latter part of the quarter. The first meeting will be to make future plans. o Professor Urges Teaching Change "Revolutionize the teaching of social studies," urges Professor John J. Mahoney of the Boston University, School of Education. "To better prepare American youth for active part in democratic poitics, society, and industry, there must be a wholesale change." Prof. Mahoney urges discarding of "old-world background" in history in grades 6 and 7, and to take up a block of work in social psychology or in race relations. This study would extend through high school with definite objectives to better society. In college more economics would be taught. "Teach always towards the today angle," states the professor. "Bettter living and better social relationships will necessarily follow." The last meeting of the Alkisiah club was held last Monday evening in the big music room at the Normal school. There was a short meeting completing the business for this quarter. The remainder of the ev ening was devoted to a musical pro gram consisting of Tschaikowsky's symphony Number 5, played by Molly Pearl.
