That leaves one more chance for a boner. Maybe you remember the time an ovenealous dramatist "died" a little too far down stage and the curtain came down behind him leaving the poor boy there to pull a Lazarus act before the play could go on. Can you thing of a more embarrassing moment? -w.sjsr.s-if there's anything that makes me sore and spoils my whole day and loses by temper more than snow on the day I left my raincoat at school the night before making it necessary to trudge that great dslance half soaked its having a sunny hot humid afternoon on which I must carr ymy heavy old useless raincoat home from school with me so I Wont have forgotten it the next morning when I wearily trudge to school again in the snow, punctualelhisy our self .

Dear Presidents: I am writeing you in a sorrowful mood because I see by the papers that your wanting to change the name of my old almah matter, that is fine alright but I do hope you wonte get stuckup with this newfangled hifelutin cognowmen. (you see I still rember some of my college learning). When I was still attending youre Institushion we all thogt that plain Normal School was good enough for us. It sort of des-tinkwished us from the wrest of the cllege kids of are time, those that didnut go to Normal school was ' just not normal you see. now I was planing to to send by Kid Percivale up to Normal school but now I now I donte know about it what with youre trying to chanje its name and all that I am kind of indesided.

Pacific Exposition Features Education Education will have its place at the California Pacific International exposition, to be held next summer. The Department of Education has planned an exhibit ait once unique and scientific, built around the theme, "Education for Good Life." The'Palace of Education will embrace 15,000 square feet of exhibit space. Its architecture is of Indian pueblo style, embossed with flowers and vines. The housewife has her place in this educational exposition, for according to Maud I. Murchie, she will be shown how to get the most for her money in the shopping world, while Mrs. Vita Muesleiseh, director of the exposition's educational department, has arranged exhibits to cover nearly every phase of education; including education for deaf, blind, and pnysicaliy handicapped. Tournaments at Rec Programs Attract Players Chess, Pinochle, Bridge, Checker Contests Have Numerous Participants Monday Is Last Date Martin and Newlean In Charge Of Challenge Games That the quieter pastimes have not been overlooked by the students at Normal is proved by the number of entrants in the tournaments being played this week as a part of the recreational program in the Edens Hall cafeteria. Twenty-six people have signed up for the bridge tournament, seven for the chess matches, six for the checker games, and 63 for the pinochle play-offs. Challenges were advanced and accepted by the contestants last week. According to the rules, the first person listed is the challenger. If his written challenge is not accepted and the match played in three days, the match is declared a forfeit to tne challenger. "I wish it to be emphasized that all matches must be played before next Tuesday," said Richard New-lean who, with Agnes Martin, supervises the games in the cafeteria. Games Follow Following the faculty dinner Saturday evening, the teachers will take possession of the equipment for an evening of ping-pong, chess, checkers and various card games. As a result the amount of time allowed tomorrow evening for tournament playoffs will be limited. It is reported that the most popular hours at the recreational corner are from 6:45 to 8:00 on week nights, when many students drop in for recreation before going to the library to study.' The supervisors also say that the average turnout is about eight boys to every girl. The first pinochle game played was won by Russell Stockon. Other matches are being played daily during the regular recreation hours. o A. C. Millikan Writes; Article for Magazine On Ancient New Deal "A New Deal in Ancient Rome" is the title of an article by A. C. Millikan father of Gordon Millikan, in the March issue of the Washington Education Journal. In it Mr. Millikan traces' the activities of such men as Julius Caesar, Caius, Augustus Caesar, and Licinius Stolo in reforming and rebuilding their lands. "There is much of value to every live teacher of ancient history in how both Greece under Solon and Rome under the above named reformers solved their depressions and rose to heights of prosperity — Greece reaching her height under Paricles and Rome under Augustus," concludes Mr. Millikan. Miss Cummins Speaks to Elks Club Organizations Miss Nora B. Cummins of the Social Science department spoke on "Political Psychology and Social Welfare" at a meeting of the Welfare organizations at the Elks club last Wednesday. Dance Class Organized Starlund and Watson Instruct All Beginners Under the supervision of Naomi Watson and Emil Starlund, a class of beginners in dance instruction has been organized in connection with the recreational program being followed this quarter. The class meets in the gymnasium every Monday and Wednesday nights from 7:30 to 9 o'clock. The first class was held Monday evening, March 4, with about twenty persons in attendance.: All beginners are said to be progressing successfully. All those who desire to learn to dance are asked to join the class, where special attention will be given to aid their danc^ tag attempts. :• Program Announced W A A Playday Schedule Given For Saturday 9:30-10:00 Branding—Main hall. 10:00-11:30 Riding the Range—Big gym. 12:00-1-30 Come and Get It—Edens hall. 1:30-1:45 Badminton Exhibition — Big gym. 1:45-2:15 Shindig—Big gym. 2:15-3:00 Gabfest—Edens Hall Blue room. 3:00-4:00 Last Roundup—Edens Hall Blue room. Prexy Returns From Olympia Fisher Reports Progress Made for Bellingham Normal at • Legislature ' "Conditions look far more favorable than they did two years ago," said President C. H. Fisher upon his return from Olympia the • first of this week. He spent several days at the legislative sessions. Cuts May Be Restored Mr. Fisher expressed the opinion that progress is being made. "At present it looks as though the legislature will restore some of the cuts they have made in the salaries," he said, "but I am uncertain as to how much this will be." "The legislators seem to be in favor of giving $6,000 to finish the athletic field and $200,000 for the Physical Education building. The appropriation will be subject to the approval of the governor," Mr. Fisher said. "Everything depends on what the legislature does about raising the revenue, and whether or not state and federal funds will be available." o Play To Be Given Before Guild Soon Marian Cole, Francis Fisher, Peggy Strand, and Virginia George, members of the Normal play production class will present "Cloey," a one-act drama, before the members of the Bellingham Theatre Guild. The performances will be held at the Walnut Street playhouse on the evenings of Tuesday and Wednesday, March 12 and 13, at 8:15 o'clock. The play, directed by Marian Cole, is an intense drama of the Carolina hill people. It deals with a domineering old woman and her crushing influence on two young lovers. o— Negro Concert Singer Wins Court Judgment In Taxi Accident Suit Roland T. Hayes, negro concert singer, was awarded a judgment last week in his suit over injuries received in a taxi-truck collision in Seattle in January, 1934. Mr. Hayes was on his way to Bellingham where he was scheduled to appear at the First Christian Church, when he received these injuries. Because of this accident, it was necessary to postpone the concert from January 15 to January 20. Varsity Debate Squad Gives Munitions Talk A symposium on munitions was presented by Merrit Tanberg, Lewis Schmitt, Herbert Sandry, and Miner Baker, members of the Varsity debating squad of the University of Washington, in assembly this morning. The group is under the direction of Professor Horace G. Rah-skopf of the English department at the university. Professor Rahskopf was formerly a member of the Normal faculty. ; • ' O——— : Among the Normal students who attended the district high school basketball tournament in Mount Vernon last week were Bob' Linds-ley, Mary Templin, Donovan Singe;r and others. Chairman For Campus Affair To Be Chosen No Quorum Present at Board Of Control Meeting Yesterday Requisitions Discussed Legislative Group Meets Today To Settle Business Because no quorum was obtained at the Board of Control Thursday, the meeting was postponed until three o'clock this afternoon, when it will be held in the associated student's office. The members who were present yesterday discussed the proposed plan on business proced-ur. Prominent topics to be brought up today are requisitions and Campus day. Plans for the annual all-school function of spring quarter are usually made and approved by the Board long in advance of the date of the affair. Being at the head of this big day is one of the most important and responsible year. The names of Jim McCleary, chairmanships of the school's social Randy Oberlatz, Cliff Johnson, and Mon Orloff were suggested for this position. Definite action will be taken today. A report of the success of the recently established dancing class, instructed by Emil Starlund and Naomi Watson, will be heard and further arrangements will be made. The representatives and officers present yesterday were President Gordon Millikin Dr. E. A. Bond, Marie de Gallier, Maxine Iddins, Oscar Svarlien, Nancy Smith and Secretary Gordon Richardson. Senior Committee To Plan Program Sanford Heads Group In Charge Of Graduation Plans - Work on the programs for the graduating class will begin in earnest at the start of the spring quarter, according to Keith Sanford, chairman of the committee. "It is a little early to make any definite arrangements yet," he states. Class pictures and senior committee pictures have been taken for the Klipsun. While the schedule for the class is usually the same, it is expected that there will be some slight differences this year. Genevieve Strain is in charge of the Class day assembly, and James McCleary with Gertrude Hall, will plan the events for that ---------- Northwest Viking - 1935 March 8 - Page 2 ---------- WASHINGTON STATE NORMAL SCHOOL, A COLLEGE OF EDUCATION, BELLINGHAM, WASHINGTON Tomorrow's Frolic Established 1899 Published every Friday except during the month of September by the Associated Students, Washington State Normal School, Bellingham.

Feature Editor BOB LINDSLEY _ Sports Editor PHIL CAMPBELL _ Assistant Editor CATHERINE MCDONALD Co-Editor MA3PNE MICKLE Co-Editor DONAVAN REEVES !.Staff Artist Questionnaires Are Interesting Last week feature page questionnaires were circulated about school to find the reaction of the student body to this inside page. Nearly 200 of these were filled in and returned to the staff members for tabulation. Keeping in step with the results received last quarter the Keyhole column and Campi Coast to Coast polled the largest votes, both as far as being read weekly and enjoyed the most are concerned. Votes on the different articles on the feature page were most favorable, but those expressing opinions concerning the sport page indicated some dissatisfaction. As long as there is any level of distinction between major, minor and intramural sports, the make-up and contents of sport page will be severely criticised by those who believe in the all-importance of varsity teams. In our opinion varsity sports are highly important, but the value received from an adequate intramural program in which the majority of the student may weekly participate, overshadws the benefits of inter-school competition. Varsity games arouse school spirit, but intra-mural activities are important enough to deserve the recognition given them on the sport page. Educational System Proving Successful Perhaps not all students have heard of the system of education which is at present in use at the University of Chicago. Although it is not strictly new, having been in operation for four years, it has now been in operation long enough to reveal any faults whicH it may possess. The following editorial, reprinted from the Pitt News, summarizes the system. An experiment in modern education which dispenses with credits, course marks, and compulsory class attendance, being carried on by the University of Chicago in its College, is showing a marked advancement over the College's former method of instruction. ' The new plan, in its fourth year at the University, gives students full latitude in use of their time. They are judged, for course completion by their ability to pass batteries of comprehensive examinations rather than attendance in classes and ability to pass instructors' examinations. •Concentration by the Chicago faculty on course design has resulted in belter selection of materials and better class organization. It is no longer necessary to be in residence at the College, and a student may take the comprehensive examinations, seven in number, whenever he thinks it advisable. Examinations are six hours long, divided between morning and afternoon on a given day. Each student must pass forty-two hours of exams, at one exam period of two weeks or spread them over several periods within two calendar years. For all students there are five general comprehensive examinations specifically required in these five fields: English composition, biological sciences, the humanities, social sciences, and physical sciences. Two additional examinations are elective, chosen usually from the departmental fields. According to Chauncey S. Boucher, dean of the , College, the results of Chicago's experiments are gratifying: "As a result of printed syllabi and, particularly, of our examination system, we have developed in three years more significant improvements in the clear definition of educational objectives, and in the selection of materials and their organization and presentation that would otherwise have come in a score of years. These gains are attributable to our abandonment of the course credit system and the adoption of a program of comprehensive examinations.*' Eyebrows How To Convert Yourself Into a Highbrow By Frances Pelegren If you are a consistent reader of Normalite you will recall that in last week's column the writer suggested that there should be something written about milady's eyebrows. Somebody took the author seriously, so here is the result. Eyebrows an. individual mustaches situated above each eye re spectively (not. always respectfully, however), and extend anywhere from the bridge of the nose to the temple. In spring housecleanings they are frequently mowed so closely that one needs a microscope to detect them. In this case there is a remarkable new application used which not only covers up but also enhances the unnatural line of the so-called well-groomed eyebrow. If an eyebrow dabbler wishes to appear sophisticated she needs only to tilt the corner of her eyebrows so as to change the center of curvature, which will then give the desired effect of a high brow. Then again, where she must acquire a visage most fierce, she has only to accentuate the natural line of said eyebrow by means of the very latest appliance (patented in 1879), which can be carried with one at all times. The moral is (we didn't know it had one either): never even dream of stepping out into society unless fully equipped with tools and applications for the eyebrows, for otherwise you will not be able to assume the proper mood for each occasion. At the Theaters Lovers of animals and the outdoors will find a treat in store for them in the screen production, "Sequoia" with Jean Parker, appearing at the Mt. Baker Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday. The picture is highly recommended for both children and adults. This excellent portrayal of animal life in Sequoia Park is being sponsored by the PTA of the Washington school. Tickets may be ob- N ew tension PI an By Nelson Ault Do you want $500 a month? This is the slogan for a pension plan which will make the Townsend Plan and all other proposed pension acts look very ill indeed. The Sutherlen Young Men's Stationary Pension Plan is drawn up by Walt Sutherlen, versatile printer of The Northwest Viking, and endorsed by many prominent citizens of Bellingham. Will Bring Back Prosperity The plan promises to bring prosperity back from behind the corner where it has hidden these many months. In fact, prosperity will not even be needed or wanted. Who would even think of prosperity with an income of $500 a month? Main points on the program include the following: This is a stationary, not a revolving plan. Money will be issued on n?e first of each month, and no check will be made at the end of the month to see if it has been spent. The committee feels that there is no need for such a check, as they are sure that the young people will spend it. Old Folks No Go "A pension for old people might be spent by the youngsters. Give it direct to them and the old people will never see it. Never mind the girls—they will be taken care of— in fact they can't lose with this plan," says Sutherxn of the scheme. With such a plan in effect most of the students of Bellingham Normal could quit pretending that their greatest ambition was to pound useful facts into the heads of the grubby masses of young America and devote their entire lives to doing what they really want to do— nothing. —o tained from the pupils of that school, or at the Owl pharmacy. Louisa May Alcott's "Little Men" will appear at the Grand theater this week-end. According to several critics, this does not equal the excellent performance "Little Women", but will nevertheless prove entertaining. For those who crave mystery thrillers, the Grand theater brings "The Mysterious Mr. Wong", full of Oriental mysticism, starring Bela Lugosi; and "Girl of My Dreams", with Mary Carlisle. Thi mgs Concerning the League of Decency and Nietzsche By Enter Lade Against a background of peach blossoms and bluebirds they embrace. Gone doubt and fear, gone the sorrows of yesterday—all is dissolved in a gooey affirmation of Life's essential sweetness. The music swells, the scene fades, and we are left brushing tears of happiness from our eyes. It would be more to the point, but probably less sublime, to know what eventually became of the blissful pair. We cannot logically believe they spent the remainder of their days embracing under the peach tree and we must, out of respect to the League of Decency, assume they were wedded. Now marriage some say, is but the opening gun to bigger and better tribulations. Anyway, the lushness of popular films is great stuff for a people rapidly becoming destitute of all save an unpleasant suspicion that the cherries in the bowl have gone the way of most perishable goods.

WASHINGTON Vikings Win Nine Games and Lose Six Varsity Ends Successful Year With UBC Game Tuesday Lappenbusch Praised Scribe Predicts Title For Next Year By Bob Lindsley With the fine record of nine victories and six defeats, the Vikings closed their most successful season in recent years last Tuesday night, when they lost a tough game to the University of British Columbia. In this, their final game, the Vikings were brilliant even in defeat, as they displayed their finest form of the season. Opening their season with two victories, the Vikings defeated Seattle College 40 to 19 and Seattle Pacific College, 13 to 35 They then hit a losing streak, dropping four games, three of them away from home. University of British Columbia, Ellensburg, and Cheney were the victors, Cheney turning the trick twice. Locals Defeat Frosh The locals then went to Seattle to take a close game from the Frosh, 30 to 26, only to return home and lose on of the best games of the season to Ellensburg, 21 to 20. With the tri-normal games out of the way the Vikings embarked on a six-game winning streak that was ended by the University of British Columbia in the final game. These victories were at the expense of Seatte Pacific, Seattle College, U. of W. Frosh, Yakima Junior College, and Pacific Lutheran twice. Much credit is due Coach Lappenbusch for the splendid work he did with the team this year. Starting the season with only three one-year lettermen, he gradually changed his untried squad from a loose-working team into five men that worked as a unit. His style of offensive attack worked much smoother and more effectively this year than last. From this improvement the outlook for next year is bright. Vikings Fail To Hit Peak In view of the fact that the Vikings did not hit their true stride until midway in the season, after the tri-normal games were passed, we hesitate to admit that the Vikings were inferior to Ellensburg and Cheney. They hit both of these teams when they were at their mid-season peak by virtue of road trips and games before the Vikings even started turning out. Tournament Won By Ladd Shangle Joly Is Beaten To Take Second In Badminton Games Ladd Shangle won the badminton tournament by taking the odd set from Jack Joly in the finals played last Tuesday. The scores were 15- 13, 14-16, and 15-1. The first two sets were closely fought, but Shangle had a decided advantage in the third. Shangle advanced to the finals by winning from Mullen, while Joly scored an upset to defeat Shaffer in the other semi-final match. Considerable interest was shown as this is the first year badminton has entered the men's intramural program.' Eighteen players took part under the direction of S. E. Carver, coach.

Dombroski 8 G Ford 1 Vandergriend 2 Sub Sanderson Sub Votaw 2 Extending their winning streak to six straight games, the Viking quintet pulled a close battle out of the fire last Friday night to defeat a strong Pacific Lutheran college aggregation 31-26. The Norsemen had defeated the Lutherans at Tacoma the previous week, 27-24. The Vikings held a slight lead most of the game, the half-time score being 17 to 9 in their favo. With about five minutes of play remaining the PLC boys put on the pressure and came from behind to take a 23-22 advantage, which they held for a few minutes. Vikings Rally In the dying minutes of the game, with both teams traveling at a terrific pace, Vikings Carver, Dombroski, and Vandergriend, doing the point getting, rolled up 8 more points to push ahead of the Lutherans, who tallied four. For the Vikings the play of Dombroski at forward stood out. Dombroski scored 9 points and played a , great defensive game, checking very closely and breaking up many PLC passes. He was taken out on fouls near the end of the game. Fitzer also went out- via the foul route. Carver Leads Scoring Carver again led the scoring for both teams, swishing the net for 10 points. His corner shots were particularly effective. Gagnon, although failing to score, did a nice job of holding Jack, the Lutheran's ace scoring threat, to 7 points. Zambas and Stutz also clicked defensively. Outstanding for the Lutherans were Nilson, forward, with 9 tallies, and Jack, center with 7. Tommerick, a veteran guard, also played a very steady brand of ball. The Lutherans used a zone defense throughout the entire game, which bothered the Norsemen con- Newsmen Win Weird Playoff Batde_37-31 Game Turns Out To Be Wild Affair in Last Half; Eight Players Used Ahern Is Sportsmanlike Vikings Rally To Force Game Into - Two Overtime Periods LATE NEWS "The Northwest Vikings are the intramural hoop champions. There will be no more play-off games." This announcement came last night from Jim Ahern, manager of the Portsiders. This settles all rumors of a play-off game. By Phil Campbell Vikings 37 Portsiders 31 DeVries 7 F .T Singer 4 Lindsley 6 F Hoekstra 4 Hager 2 C Meyers 7 Shenenbergcr IS G Ahern 8 Angel 7 —G McCleery 3 Sub Goff S Northwest Viking hoopsters came to life in the last half of the "final" game of the intramural playoff Wednesday to win over the Portsiders in two overtime periods, by a score of 37-31. The game nowever will probably be played over, as it was only through the good sportsmanship on the part of Jim Ahern, Portsider manager, that the Vikings won. The Paper crew could muster only five men for the game, and when Hager was fouled out in the opening of the second half the Lindsley squad had only four men left. To make things more even Ahern promptly jerked one of his players, although he could have played his whole team and have easily hacked the Vikings. After Singer had counted first for the Southpaws with a field goal the Vikings retaliated with three foul shots to take a temporary lead. Then the Ahern crew shot ahead with field goals by Hoekstra, McCleery, and Meyers, to take a commanding lead. Second Half Weird Affair The second half was a rather weird affair with the Vikings gradually closing up the gap in the scoring to tie the game up at 28- 28 at the end of the regular playing period. In the first overtime period the Vikings took a-lead only to have Singer tie it up again with ten seconds to go. o siderably, since most of their plays are designed to break up a man to man defense.

The Continental student is prepared for a definite, practical, professional career. The American college is a real alma mater where her children remain bound by many ties," ob serves a European professor in an interview recenty given to the Christian Science Monitor. "A loyalty of this kind is unknown in Europe. There the college aims solely to impart knowledge. "Students in America are found to work harder and more conscientiously. This is especially true about women's colleges where the average student is more mature than a boy of the same age. "Many teachers are insufficiently trained." Most Continental teachers must have a Ph. D. degree. "Survey courses in the first two years of college might remedy this,',' suggests the professor. "To me, American colleges seem much more promising for the future of free and universal scholarship."

Unheralded and far less exciting than his 72 years of mortal existence, was the death last Christmas Eve of one of journalism's greatest gifts to a world of news-hungry readers and eager newspaper aspirants, Arthur Brisbane. » * * * * Educated abroad mainly by tutors, Brisbane's assimilation of European gentility furnished a suitable foundation for an early entrance into a journalistic trade at nineteen. Soon an ally of Pulitzer on the New York World, Brisbane attracted Hearst's attention and finally fell victim to some of his rosy-tinted enticements, taking command aboard the undeveloped Evening Journal of that city. At that point he vowed to touch not a drop of his favorite claret until such a time that his paper surpassed the now rival World in both volume and importance. This he did readily. * * * * * Together with Hearst, Brisbane envisaged and fostered numerous real estate deals, constructing the Ziegfeld Theater, the Waring House, the Ritz hotel, and other sometimes not so lucrative edifices around and about New York and its constituencies. Oft-times he attempted to outdeal Hearst in these transactions by subtly inserting a provision in the contract which would ultimately give him 90 per cent of the cut and allot a mere 10 per cent to Hearst. A few things like that would tend to make one wonder why a headstrong person of Hearst's bias tolerated -Brisbane as long as, -he did. Resulting from Brisbane's ambitions, large papers grew up in Washington, Chicago, and Milwaukee, adding much to the extent and prestige of the Hearst chain and his, what was-to-be $260,000 salary. * * * * * Brisbane was quite taken up by Mussolini with his dynamic characteristics, and evinced a great deal of pleasure at the thoroughness of Italy in its Ethiopian warfare. Strangely enough he held a distinct aversion towards all atheists in his ordinary estimations. * * * * * Both his columns, "This Week," subscribed to by 1200 weeklies, and "Today," patronized by 200 dailies, were written in any place available at the moment a story was felt coming on—in a car, ferry, train, anything. An extremely facile and rapid style of writing enabled him to turn out eight additional columns of editorials weekly and still have ample time for recreation. * * » * * Arthur Brisbane's final column was dictated from bed and finished by his son, Seward, believed to be the only ghost-writer employed on any of his writings. Heart trouble intervened before the last paragraph could be copied. Filling in next day, Colleague Hearst wrote the column dedicatory to his comrade's life, setting the scene for scores of eulogies and notes of sorrow which poured from friends throughout the world, putting a climax to a career that was almost one grand climax from start to finish. To his grave with him goes his column. * * * * * Yet not to thine eternal resting place, Shalt thou venture alone . . . But all that breathe shall (finally) Make their bed with thee . . . —Bryant. * * * * * Comparing Brisbane with other columnists prominent in public eye. one can see the versatility attained in that particular field of journalism. New York writers seem to predominate as far as national renown is concerned. N .Walter Winchell, of the Winchell* Bernie publicity feud, in his "On Broadway' column covers a highly local range, New York stage and soreen, bits of night life gossip, and additional information peculiar to Men's Club Slates Dance Next Friday Bellingham Hotel Scene of Frolic; No Corsages Is Ruling; Much Enthusiasm Shown for Event Boroughs Working Hard Date Change with Women Give Males Better Chance (Continued on Page Three) Men's Club . Informal, the firs venture of the new Men's club, wil be held in the large ballroom of th. Bellingham hotel one week from tonight. This will be the first dance that the men of the school hav.. sponsored this term. Homer Boroughs, general chair man, states, "The men are enthus iastic about this affair. They hav decided against corsages becaus. there are many who would not LK. able to attend if incidental expenses were not kept at a minimum." At may other dances given by the men there have been no corsages. Thj i action, accepted in good spirit by everyone, is truly a great help tj many. With everyone abiding by the rule no one is conspisuous. Dates Changed The Women's League, which for-; merly had next Friday reserved as the date for their dance, took a later date because the general opinion of the students was that the men should give their dance first. The girls who have taken men to cither of the other dances felt that the men should be given a chance to choose their dates without any further pressure being put upon them. From Ed Angel, publicity chairman, comes the following statement: "If you haven't a date, fellows, get one and sign up right away. The" low admission' price of 75 cents means that a large number of you will have to turn out." Rex Rolle, another committeeman, promises a good orchestra. Several themes have been suggested; as yet none has been definitely decided upon. o January Program Presents Famous Metropolitan Star Lunjberg, Scandinavian Soprano, O'Connor, Irish Tenor, This Month Assembly programs for the month of January include Goeta Lunjberg, Metropolitan Opera singer, who will appear in assembly January 26. According to Donald C. Bushel! and Nils Boson, of the music department and also of the lecture and entertainment committee, Mme. Lunjberg is one of the outstanding performers of the winter quarter schedule. Appears Before Queen At the age of eight the Scandinavian soprano sang for the queen of Sweden. At sixteen she entered the Royal Academy of Singing in Stockholm. After two years of pre- Uminary training there, she made her debut as Elizabeth in "Tann-haeuser." Since 1932 she has been a member of the Metropolitan Opera Association. During the win* ter season, Mme. Lunjberg devotes her time appearing at the Metropolitan Opera House and concertiz-ing throughout America. She spends the other six months of the year in Europe appearing in concerts and musical festivals. Scheduled to appear January 12, is Charles O'Connor, singer of Irish traditional songs, who will accompany himself on the Irish harp. The legendary and historical background legendary and historical background and tanslatiron of the songs will be explained by Mr. O'Connor. Charles Eagle Plume, interpreter of Indian lore, life, and culture, will present a program consisting of Indian dances and songs on January 19. January 15 has been set aside for student elections. Women's League assembly is scheduled for January 29J •}.:•• -:-^:\M\i;:'.•/•.•,: '••••"•;v::-./; (An Editorial) In Which the Editor Makes Several Promises for Viking Staff, With Best Intentions of Keeping Same To Readers of the Viking: Today a new newspaper is facing you. It is new in several ways —-in makeup, in policy, in enterprise, and personnel. The Northwest Viking is no longer on the fence. This issue will inaugurate the practice of forming definite opinions on questions of concern to Viking readers. 1 hrough the editorial department, opinions will be voiced on controversial subjects, not with the purpose of inciting adveree publicity or comment, but with the hope of creating interest in a hitherto wish-washy section. Hereafter the Viking WILL be on time. Believing that news is valueless if late, the new staff pledges itself to have the paper in the front hall when the Friday assembly is over. In the minds of the new editorial department, this is the most important change to take place. A criticism from the men students, and not without some foundation, that too many females were running the paper, will now have no foot to stand on—as witness the masthead. In regard to the fact that inaccuracy often creeps into print, the staff will take more exacting measures to correct this fault. This will include bo'.h mechanical errors and mistakes caused by incorrect copy. ' Faults hitherto listed and designed for correction during the coming quarter are in no manner to be inferred as casting any reflection on previous administrations. Instead, the new staff has simply made a few new resolutions. They are a capable, selectei group, and are confident of their ability to replace the old with the new, and desirous of fashioning a good paper for your approval. Through over-zealousness, inexperience, and the human characteristic of being imperfect, it is to be expected that this staff will make a few mistakes; but these mistakes will.- it is hoped, be so negligible that they will be forgiven in light of the intended ambitions. Ullin Sees 'The Floorwalker, Ten Big Stories Chosen For '36 Annual Newspaper Poll Given by Viking; Simpson Affair Wins Honor Operating in full accordance with other: first-class, journals and their polls, the Viking duly delivers its annual poll—"The Ten Most Important News Stories" for the period which is now but a fleeting memory of better things, 1936. This affair is put on to acquaint the public with those events they should remember as the most important happenings during the past year. Complete tabulations: one, King Edward, 167; two, Roosevelt campaign, 104; three, Italian Conquest, 97; four, Spanish revolution, 94; five, Hauptman case, 88; six, Olympic Games, 54; seven, Pacific Coast strike, 38; eight, Zioncheck antics and death, 31; nine, Pan-American peace conference, 26; ten, Midwest drought, 25. Investigation unearthed the facts that three and five were the only ones to repeat from last year's National polls, that one-third of the subjects chosen for consideration concerned war. Editor Appoints Viking Machine Kluge, Boothe Head Paper Staff; Rolle New Copy Editor; Classes Even Headed by Harry Kluge, editor, and Helen Boothe, business manager, a new Viking staff has been appointed. The appointments are as follows: Rex Rolle, copy editor; Lloyd Nel- Bob White, advertising manager; son, news editor; Clarence Soukup, sports editor; Don Zylstra and Virginia Shields, feature editors; Sybil Hinchliffe, society editor; and Jean Hatch, art editor. "I think the staff is almost completely new and as editor I will get the paper out on time each week, as this is very essential in the publishing of a paper," states the new chief. Members of the staff are chosen from the advanced class in news-writing, as this course is designed to teach students how to publish a school paper. Regular reporters are taken from the elementary class with the exception of special writers.

Rex Rolle .....Copy Editor Sybil Hinchliffe Society Editor Jean Hatch Art Editor Cigarette Ads, Yes or No. Every so often, a general reckoning of assets and debits is a good habit to form. This is true regarding any person or organization. And the New Year is the appropriate time for such a procedure. So, the Viking will now look in the mirror. To the casual observer, the business affairs of the Viking appear to be in good running order. A more careful scrutiny reveals this. For the last two or three years, T H E ADVERTISING HAS BEEN DECIDEDLY LOW. Now this may or may not be the fault of the business manager. Since other duties performed by the managers have been judged competent, it is to be supposed that the fault lies in other channels. But that is not the object of this editorial. The obvious answer is to find ways and means to increase advertising. The simplest method is to take cigarette advertising. Yes, the Viking knows that smoking is a useless, wasteful, senseless, injurious habit. Even to the point of preaching, attention should be given to the harmful results of smoking. But that is not the point. Students and teachers smoke and will smoke regardless of any preaching. If other school papers, teachers' colleges included, carry such advertising, why shouldn't.the Viking? It matters not whether you heed such advertising. The Viking would hope that you don't. It would mean that the Viking broke a tradition, but what is tradition in this modern age? Tradition will not make a financial success of any paper. Such a change would result in a highly lucrative income for the Viking. Don't get the idea that the Viking is indorsing cigarettes. We are merely asking that, since you are faced with the same situation every day in other papers of good repute, why shouldn't we make the most of our opportunities? o The War and Navy Departments Proves It Is the War and Navy Department The War and Navy department recently made public a plan whereby, in time of war, the press would be mobilized for the purpose of presenting a unified version of war publicity. Quoting the exact announcement: "The mission of this administration is to co-ordinate and direct the national publicity activities so as to insure that the purposes, views and progress of the government in prosecution of war are properly and adequately presented to the people and that the aid of public opinion is enlisted to the fulles textent in behalf thereof." Such a plan, in simple words, means exactly that freedom of the press would be censored in time of war. It means that our press would be relegated to the status of the German press. And such a state of affairs in this country creates no rosy illusions for this department. The Observer Flash!—and a good, good quarter, ladeez and gentlemen; this is the Observers bringing you the dope on the muck this week, such as it is—hasn't had much time to accumulate. DON REEVES is again the possessor of the "piece of ice" MATTIE was wearing on her left ring finger last quarter.

WE hope CATHERINE FERRIS didn't spend ALL her Christmas money on the telegram she sent New Year's eve—or does she know him well enough to send them collect? No time was lost last Sunday night in getting the various Edens hall romances under way for the quarter. Indications are that the LILY RBOWN-VAN LUVEN, the ANGEL-STODDARD, and BIXBY-PAT affairs are coming along as well as can be expected. —And then there was SPUD REID who came 3,000 miles to take mechanical drawing and couldn't get into the class.

Now it is another season—winter—and while water pipes are freezing at home, the kids are out shooting baskets. This all sounds like sports are just something that are in the air, but it is much more than that to many. Take that team of ours; it seems that the very reputation of the school rests on them. We have confidence in them, and we are going to give our earnest support to their efforts. MovieReview By Lucille Lee _•' '. MT.

Faculty Mourns Former Student Herbert Ellison Passes Suddenly At Wenatchee Home; Well Known Here Students of the Wenatchee junior high school mourned this week over the death of their beloved principal, Herbert B. Ellison, 54. He died suddenly last Sunday. Ellison, for 20 years a principal at the junior high, spent his summers at the Bellingham State Normal and the University of Washington, being graduated from the latter in 1928. He returned to the Normal to receive his B.A. degree in August, 1933. The B.A. class of 1933 was the first of its kind here. Many of the faculty of the Normal school were intimate friends of the late Mr. Ellison and feel the Wenatchee junior high school has lost a great master, as well as a grand man. One of the Normal faculty members was heard to say of Ellison, "He was a splendid personality, a heart of gold, and was a wonderful organizer." .His thoughtfulness of everyone and his good nature made him the idol of his students during his 20 years at the junior high school. o Jenkins To Teach Winter And Spring Miss Helen Jenkins, of Seattle, who has been teaching as a substitute in the history department of the University of Washington, is now taking over the social science courses formerly taught by Miss Nora B. Cummins, acting dean. Coming highly recommended by the history department at the University of Washington, and by the professors she worked with, Dr. Jenkins will teach European history both the winter and spring quarters. Miss Jenkins earned her B.A. degree at the University of Colorado; her M.A. degree at Cornell university and her Ph.D at the University o i* Pennsylvania. Director Slaes Training School Capacity Struck Large Influx of Transfers Cause Unexpected Situation; Equal Number in Each Department. Transfer students coming here to do their teaching have caused a great increase in the number of student teachers. Not only have all practice teaching" positions been filled this quarter, but Miss Rich has received enough applications to fill the training school during the spring and summer quarters also. The technique course 167, Observation and Technique of the Elementary school, which was scheduled for this quarter, has been postponed till spring quarter because with the department filled to capacity each supervisor has a maximum number of student teachers to supervise, and no one is free to give the course. When it is given in the spring Miss Rich will likely direct it. Of the 70 students teaching this quarter, 41 are transfers. Most of these have taken two years at the University of Washington or at some junior college and plan to get a teaching certificate after completing one year here. The exact reason for this influx of students ready to do their teaching cannot be determined. In each of the three curriculums, primary, intermediate, and junior high, there are eleven students teaching in the city. In the training school, there are 17 in the primary and 14 each in the intermediate and junior high departments. More Brisbane, Etc. Continued from Page Three* New Yorkers' appreciation. Nothing especially educational. Directly an antithesis was Brisbane's column., catering to national and international news of all kinds, and strongly scientific at times. F.P.A., in the Herald-Tribune, is an exact compromise between Win-chell and Brisbane, well worth the while. Those two throw-backs to sane column-writing, "Bugs" Baer and Ted Cook, deal solely with nonsensical rhymes, riots, and riant re-diculousness. O. O. Mclntyre employs an elaboration of trivia, as he calls it, into a philosophical treatment of human ills and traits. Thus, both the intellectual and the insipid, the serious and the humorous, are able to enjoy some portion of this actively agile journalistic feature.

However, some students are still registering and the enrollment will not be complete for another week. Meanwhile the achievement tests ---------- Northwest Viking - 1937 January 8 - Page 4 ---------- WASHINGTON ^ A T E NORMAL SCH OOL; BEL^WCHAM, W^HINGTON^ Sport News SOUKUP, Editor SOUKIE SAYS • Now that football received the gong and THAT game down in Pasadena is over, Coach Lappenbusch and his Vikings can settle down to try bringing home a championship squad for the first time in a decade. Back in 1927, when the Depression was still unheard of, the Vikings gave Cheney and Ellensburg a couple of whippings that have had to last over a lean and lank ten years. Ten years later (1937) and all three schools are boasting the strongest teams in history. No matter who wins the Tri- Normal this year, the fans will be treated to the hottest brand of basketball that has been displayed here for some time. Fabio Cappa, of the Ellensburg Crier is pulling for the Vikings to beat Cheney but he's keeping the joker up his sleeve. Laurance Butzer of the Cheney Journal has his ideas about a championship, too. Cheney's 34-25 defeat at the hands of the Washington State Cougars doesn't indicate any Weakness in the Savage lineup. LET'S NOT DANCE President Fisher's address in Tuesday's assembly brings up the old question of dancing on the new gym floor. Our pavilion has been called the basketball palace by sports writers around town. Let's preserve that name by not permitting dancing on the new foor; not even one dance. As someone once said to me, "when you get one you want more." The old gym and the armory are sufficient for the dancing requirements of the students. Please, Prexy, spare that floor! As soon as Viking Manor establishes itself as the undisputed boss of the A league by dusting off the W club in today's game, one hundred intra-nniraiers or the equivalent of twelve teams will get under way for the second half of the interclass season. The A league should dish up some classy basketball with six strong teams signed up. The B league will take the backwash with former has fceens of the A league and veteran B teams fighting for supremacy. . A BIT OF THIS AND THAT The Vikings will whip the socks off C. P. S. in tomorrow night's game . . . . Harold Nelson, Jorihy and Hugo Anderson were welcome visitors to the Edmonds Athletic club as they helped the home team win three games over the vacation . . . James Bever, son of the late Dean Bever, scored 29 points for the Y.M.C.A. in a game recently played in Vancouver . . . . Wonder what happened to Bobby Walker, the U. of W. freshman sensation, who figured strongly in two Frosh victories over the Normal last year . . . . Ellensburg holds a 45-31 victory over the Albany squad . . . . Someone was kidding Fabio Cappa when they told him Spud Reed and John Fox were two short fellows from Indiana.. . . Cheney will have practically the same team as last year plus the Valley high school squad, state high school champions . . . Johnny Anderson, high scorer in the King County league for two years, has scored only three points in his last two starts for the Vikings . . . The absence of Kenny Wickstrom leaves last year's illegal ski club without a leader . . . Andy Heverin'g found studies too much for him and dropped out of school for a quarter . . . A young man by the. name of Weber from Burlington will be a great help ot the Viking track squad . . . Sam Carver will trade the swivel chair in his office for a good quarter miler and a couple weight men. o With The WAA By Betty Howell ONE OF THE FINEST features of the W.A.A. is the liberalism which invites any girl in school to join the club whether she turns out for athletics or not. The first meeting will be held next Tuesday afternoon in the Blue room of Edens hall. A warning is being issued here and now to all of you new members; you're to be initiated, so prepare yourself in any and every possible way. Initiation is to be the first thing in order to start the new year out in the most properly accepted manner. BASKETBALL W I L L BE P R A C T I C E D on Tuesdays and Thursdays at four o'clock. If the traditional rush for basketball positions occur this quarter, as it has in previous years, the group will likely be divided into two or three teams. It seems th i in other years the girls have played some hard and fast games at these turnouts. May the best team win! — DURING WINTER QUARTER, turnouts for badminton are to be held on Monday and Wednesday afternoon. While the world is rather blus-try on the outside, many girls of the school are arming themselves with badminton rackets to practice and become skillful at this increasingly popular indoor sport. Why not join the crowd of badmintoneers and learn how to swing a mean racket, too. A NEW SWIMMING cub is to be organized next week. At the first meeting on Monday afternoon at four o'clock a constitution will be drawn up and adopted. For the sake of more efficient "swomocracy" a president will be elected to head the club. Regulations, qualifications, classifications and other necessary evils will be discussed. From all reports there should soon be enough splashing, diving, and swimming in the blue-green waters of the elegant new pool to justify all of the worry and work which Prexy put into that Physical Education building; I F T H E G R O U P is of sufficient number it will likely be divided into two divisions. The senior group will be for the more advanced mermaids and the junior part will supply lots of swim-action for the not-so-advanced members. All women who are interested in swimming are urged to come.

Nelson and Carver Sparkle Tho PLC Wins Over Locals Lead Is Tied Five Times in Last Moments As Lutherans Ruin Vikings* Undefeated Standing. By Ed Johnston When two eager and evenly matched teams get together—time will usually tell, and that's just what it did. Pacific Lutheran college, in the most sparkling and hair-raising basketball melee ever to grace the shining maples of the Vikings' new palace, knocked the Norsemen from the undefeated ranks by a 26-25 heartbreaker last night before a frenzied and admiring crowd. Fast and deadly passing was the highlight of the game with both teams working it well up under the basket only to get the jitters and shoot or throw it away. Carver Triumphs The contest got off to a slow start as airtight, zone and man-to-man defense was displayed on both sides. Finally Carver, who swished his way to high honors with 14 points, dented the net for the initial basket of the evening. In rapid order Solie and Tommervik forged the Gladiators ahead of the classy outfitted Western Washington college five with three clever shorts. During the remainder or the half, both quintets added four to their scoring columns and it ended 10 to 6. One of Coach Chuck Lappenbusch's best clicking combinations, lead by Nelson, played the best brand of ball of the battle. It was a pleasing piece of teamwork they displayed but without the breaks, they lacked the scoring punch. Whirlwind Finale Both PPPPP

IRSON FOR SPRING Bob Waters Chosen as Business '5f Manager of School Publication AMENDMENTS CHANGED Roger Chapman, Ingvald Iverson, and Bob Waters were selected by the Board of Control to fill the offices of Editor of the Northwest Viking, the secretary of the Board of Control and Business Manager of the Viking at the meeting of the Board held Wedensday night in the Student Association office. Committee reports and plans on the quarterly banquet of the group were also included in this week's business meeting. Chapman Opposed In all three offices the Board made what it considered the best selection from a number of candidates for each office. Nick Bond, former Viking reporter, was Chapman's only opposer in the bid for Editorship. Chapman is at present the Editor of the publication and in the opinion of the Board his work on the paper has been satisfactory and would warrant the continuation of his term of office. Besides the re-elected secretary, lone Shreve and Earl Hutchins filed bids for the position of keeping the Associated students' records. Two candidates, Bob Waters, the choice of the Board, and Gordon Leen, made application for the Business Manager's job on the school weekly newspaper. Robert Walters, present manager, and former editor, did not file for re-election. Applicants for all offices were interviewed by the group in the meeting, and Mrs. Ruth Burnet, advisor Indian Lecturer (Coatimud on Page Two) Normalite GREETINGS LINDBURGHS AGAIN MAHATMA SLATS VEM.

Great writers have started their masterpieces, once upon a time, bat the installment collectors have begun to chant that and to avoid contact with such vile rabble we shall bej forced to refrain. Kindly stand by for further information! W.S.N.S. — Promising to be one of the most attractive programs of the year is that of Jehan Warliker, Prince Seesodia of India, famed traveler and orator who will speak in assembly on Tuesday, March 15. Warliker was born in India of Hindu parents, descendants of the princely clan of Seesodia. He has received his excellent education in the various English colleges. He is an authority on the British rule in India, also the financial policies, education systems and the industries of his native country. Interesting Lecture Mr. Warliker will speak on his travels and his investigations in the India of today. With his excellent education and culture, enriched by travel over nearly two-thirds of the globe, his lecture will be very interesting and entertaining. Studied Native Land He has traveled throughout India, studying tthe philosophic thought and religions of his country, studying the traditions and customs of his people, gaining an insight into, an understanding of, and a great sympathy for the national ideals and aspirations of his race. This knowledge coupled with his western training, convinced him that his country with her vast manpower and natural resources, if properly developed, could become one of the greatest nations in the world. Mr. Warliker brings out all of these ideas in his lectures. o NORMAL GRADUATE IS LIBRARIAN IN COLLEGE Vaughn Howell has been appointed general chairman of the spring mixer, which will be held April 1 in the big gym.

Banquet For Winter Held On Thursday Eve Talk by President Fisher Reviewed in Educational Paper Speaking of information, and standing by, and radios, and newspapers, and mob violence reminds us of a topic Of very constant conversation— you've guessed it, the Lindburgh baby! The case deserves the publicity its getting and the kidnappers should be brought to light—but will they? With a net around the underworld making it very nearly a little protected nation —we wonder! It seems that the only plausible solution would be the finding of the baby by an innocent passerby! And in the meantime— a nation listens in on the radio, breathlessly waiting!

In a letter to Miss Nora B. Cummins, acting dean, Miss Pearl Rutherford, of the Nebraska State Teachers College, tells of Miss Josephine Silvers' position as librarian of that college. The school is located at Wayne, Nebraska. Miss Silvers is a graduate of Bei-lingham State Normal, having finished her work here in 1921. She worked as student assistant librarian while in attendance at this school. She was graduated from the University of Washington library school in 1930 and took her present position in the fall of that year. •-—-——o— ••"•• W. A. A. TRAVELS TO CHUCKANUT SATURDAY St. Patrick and the Irish reigned over the Edens Hall dining room Thursday evening when the Women's Athletic Association gave their annual winter banquet. Irish Influence Felt Those members who are of Irish extraction felt perfectly at home with the green and white color scheme which was used. The atmosphere was' sO Irish that a flourishing crop of shamrocks overran the tables. Green candles, streamers and shamrock nut cups filled with nuts and green candies completed the table decorations. Even the food was affected by the time of year, and took to Limerick shades. The menu was as follows: Fruit cocktail, veal steak, green peas, mashed potatoes and gravy, lettuce salad, shamrock ice cream and candies. Committees for Banquet The committees for the banquet are: Decoration, Genevieve Peters, chairman, Irma Manke, Janet Bor-ges, Inez Williams, Lucille Croxton, Peggy Davis, Helen Klumb, Mayme Macintosh and Mary Tarbox.

Menu—Louisa Morrissey, chairman, Nina Johansen, Dolly Malter^ ner, Evelyn Smith. Marydel C o n r a d was general chairman of the affair. Toasts Given Those girls who gave toasts are Eiva Pilquist, Betty Pearson, June McLeod and Loraine Shephard. The tap dancing team gave several dances as a part of the program.

C, appeared in the third issue of "The Gist of the Washington Meeting." This paper was published each day of the conference telling of the speakers and the themes and main points of their talks. Three issues have been received by the research department of the Normal school. Research Report President Fisher spoke on some of the problems and results of the work of the research department. This work is under the direction of Dr. Harry V. Masters and Dr. C. C. Upshall. o W. A A. SELECTS REPRESENTATIVES Grue and Flick are Delegates to Athletic Conefernce (Continued on Fafe Two) Iola Grue and Theona Flick were chosen as sophomore and freshman delegates to the conference of the American Athletic Association to be held in Los Angeles, California, from April 7 to 9. They were elected at a meeting of the athletic council held Monday, March 7, in the P. E. office. Top, Conrad Alternatives Dorothy Top, sophomore, and Marydel Conrad, freshman, were chosen as alternates in case the regular delegates are unable to attend. The two girls will be accompanied on the trip by Miss Ruth Weythman, W. A. A. adviser. At a special meeting last week, members o fthe Board of Control voted the sum of $100 to help defray the expenses of the three chosen delegates. Many to Attend This meeting in Los Angeles is the annual conference of the American Athletic Association, which will be attended by delegates from many teachers' colleges, universities and other colleges throughout the United States. Nothing definite concerning the trip can be decided upon until President Fisher returns from his Eastern journey. It is probable, however, that the delegates will drive to California by automobile. Send Viking News The conference representatives have promised to send special news stories to The Viking for publication.. These will contain details of the trip and accounts of the various meetings of the conference.

All the psychology of human emotion is rampant. We are witnessing an historical event equal to the Lindburgh bight, the world war, battle of Waterloo, or^what have you. We are an audience at the greatest manhunt in history. Let us cynically think over the reports; the conclusions and emotions of the great mob, the DEAR public. Let's discover our own reaction to the last hectic week. OPINIONS on the whole affair vary from "just another publicity stunt," to "the most heinous crime in history." There you are. Yes. Where are you? THE American public displays her sympathy and her passion for excitement. Human psychology on parade. NEWSPAPER reporters by the score. Dispatches by the mile. Press facilities organized to the nth degree. NEWSPAPER columns, pages, editions, tons of newsprint spread with Lindbergh letters, threats, clues, statements, descriptions. AND the whole darn story could have been told an "20 words, no more, no less." WITH China and Japan almost crowded off the pages, and statements from Judge Jones, screaming, "justice, detestable, God save our Country"; Ira O'Swigger, postmaster of Podunk, "shoot 'em lika dog, shoot 'em like a dog"; and Sheriff Zilch, "lynch them, that is the time for the sheriff to leave the county." RADIO programs all night "to bring you the latest from Trenton." ORCHESTRAS sobbing out, "That Little Boy of Mine". SERMONS from every pulpit and soapbox. EDITORIALS I Will nothing save our country? IT'S A TRAGEDY, but who would guess it,— first a comedy—then a farce. Perhaps he kidnapping isn't the real tragedy. WONT SOMEONE write another chapter for "The Great American Bandwagon"? WITH APOLOGIES to Mr. MERZ. "BIGGER AND BETTTER KIDNAP PINGS". PARDON US. We're a little hazy, a little disorganized. But must we be blamed?

It was good to be there in that crowd of over-grown children all with great dreams in their eyes. We could see what ideals were in those hearts. And when they cheered we knew that red blood was in their veins. Blue eyes, like Puck's, a broad generous mouth with a mustache riding high on it, white dancing teeth holding a stub of a cigar. But we saw ideals enough to found a nation behind those eyes. And someone called these people "enemies of our country". / had a dream— / saw the fellows of the world Laughing together I saw Tom, Dick, and Harry Lighting three pipes From one match.

This noted catch was so minute it took a compound microscope to even get a good look at it. It was a member of the Goby family and was found in waters of the Philippine Islands. This fish was such an important discovery that Dr. Herre later wrote several volumes on the subject. Dr. Herre is probably the leading fish authority in the country today and has lived and traveled for months, .atr-a .time, in many of the most inaccessible and wildest part of the East Indies, where few outsiders penetrate and where conditions are very primitive. He left the Normal faculty and took the position of Commissioner of Fisheries for the Philippine Islands. After retiring from this service Dr. Herre was appointed Director of the Museum of Stanford University. o MISS HOPPER SPEAKS TO CLASS OF SENIORS S^r^Mea^Lasl0i}e u Of Year to be Given Sunday Eve at Edens The annual Spring Tea will be given at Edens Hall, Sunday March 13. vi t is the" last tea of the year and is expected to be exceptionally beautiful.

Weather being a little too cold for scheduled workouts, Pop is keeping his prospects under wraps. Pitchers Workout A few of the battery men are throwing in the small gym to get their arms in shape but for the rest of the men the coach suggested that they devote their time to their school work, and figures that they can find time enoughaduring the spring vacation to get in shape. No additional games have yet been added to the Viking schedule but prospects for a game with the University Frosh or varsity' looks very bright, so Pop is conqpntrating on his battery men more every day so as to round a few men in shape to stop the onslaughts of opposing batsmen. Veterans Back Ing Iverson and Erwin Leatha, sweater earners, are back for another season on the mound for the Normal and should have a good year. Ing and Leatha both pitched some nice games last spring and if •hey can repeat again this spring everything will be rosy. No lettermen catchers are back but Pop has found a few men who have;-had previous experience behind the plate and should be able to find a couple of battery combinations that will work successfully. Comfort and Abbott, both letter-men, although they have never caught for the Vikings, are expected to try put for the position. As Pop has a: wealth of material in the rest of the position so the team should-not be weakened materially. Among other promising chuckers Buck Loomis looks very promising. Buck has a nice fast ball and enough curves in his bag of tricks to fool opposing hitters. He has had lots of previous experience and should have a good season this spring. Brewer Promising Nelson Brewer,' a transfer from W. S. C, is another one of Pop's new men. Brewer has a nice fast ball and if he can learn to control it he should be very successful. Brewer is built for lots of work, which he thrives on, so Gunn will see that he has plenty if he can produce the goods. Pop has lettermen all around the infield except at first base and he intends to devote a lot of time to developing a first sacker that can handle the initial sack in good style. The outfield is nude of lettermen but Coach Gunn has a wealth of material to develop in ball hawks so if some of his prospects produce tthe goods the Vikings should be represented by a well balanced ball club. o- ' Entries Open for Spring Soft Ball Hear ye! Hear ye! All big he men whose fancies turn to physical enterprise in the Spring should begin to organize their soft ball teams. Here is a splendid chance to be captain, fella's. Just elect yourself •and then select your team. \" Vernon Leatha has signified his ^intention of piloting the Co-op entry. Skotheim, likely will enter a team representing the Kitchen ;Krew. [•Let's get busy, men! We must have .at least four teams to cross bats -next quarter when the soft ball league begins. As a drastic economic measure, Lindbloom High school department heads recently voted to abolish all student extra-curricular activities. Athletic competition, publications, and literary and dramatic producr ttcra must ^ to fall in line With the city economy program, and all teachers are need- !i$$$ffl.'ihandle- ekta»^:;:aass;vvwork caused by a record enrollment. ^ S f i i ^ Well lay yon two to one that a certain past pertormer of the ^Viking track squad will make one of the gamest and strongest bids seen i* these parts for quite some time for a place on the Northwest's track delegation to the Olympic Games this summer. .We know that you remember him. Rather short, stocky, red-headed, and from all appearances lacking all the qualities of a smooth-running, long-striding distance man. Know him now? Sure, it's Norman Bright, and ..Bellingham ..Normal should be mighty proud of this mite of a miler who is at present turning out under Coach" Hec Edmundson at the University of Washington. Day before yesterday Bright turned in his fastest time of the year in a 4:28 victory over Ken Rhuddy, Husky ace, who was forced to his utmost to keep on the trail of the former Viking flash. Bright is a very, peculiar runner, holding his head and shoulders high in the air, which would seem to have a tendency to hinder his breathing. He holds his arms stiff and runs with a tremendous stride. Equipped with rather short legs, Bright seems to strain himself with every stride, but Father Time sure takes a beating whenever he leaves his holes in the well-known cinder path. A great guy, Bright, and we wish him loads of luck. What do you say, fans, that we look ahead this spring for another tri- Normal championship in the racqueteering business. No, we don't mean the kind where machine guns are used, but-where harmless, simple looking tennis racquets are wielded. We'll say nothing of track for the time being, but with the heaps of material in school this quarter and Qie form already shown by the budding aspirants, Coach Carver should have little trouble in leading his charges to another tri-Normal pennant. Hedger and Berenstein did the work last year, and there seems to be plenty of willing youngsters who are more than ready to step into thir shoes and prepare to carry on. Also track prospects shouldn't fall too low this year. There seem to be oodles of husky, fresh young fellows in school who are fairly praying for the track to dry sufficiently as to allow them to do their training outdoors. With such men as Schlilaty, Meyers, Jones, DeLancey, Stiger, Duyff, Looegren, Davis, Michelson, Gable, Thomas, Falkner, VanOver, Hall Johannes, Brewer, Temple, Kemphaus, Berg and numerous other stars, the Viking mentor has an excellent chance to take full possession of the beautiful loving cup offered for the Normal team winning the tri-school championship three times. Both Cheney and the Vikings have two Keep-Off signs on the mug and this year's meet will undoubtedly decide the ownership., as Ellensburg is but very little stronger than she was last spring. We might say that points will be very precious in that meet and any former weakness covered up will mean points towards winning that cup. "Red" VanOver, former Mount Baker weight star, will undoubtedly prove a godsend to the coach. He is a very capable man on both the shot and discus and should come through with some much-needed points that have not materialized in the weight events in past seasons. Also, Roundy, Cheney big shot, may not have as easy a time rolling up points as he has had in the past two years. Don't forget, fans, this is open season on softball league pitchers, catchers, infielders and pasture roamers, so see a manager, coach or captain of some team and grab a position on the playing lfet Or you might organize a team of your own. Remember, the more teams the merrier, which in turn will mean more competition, more sport and more games for yourself as an individual to play during the season. Early next quarter the ladder tournaments for the various sports will be posted. Be sure and sign up for one of these ladders. It will mean a great lot of sport for you and an opportunity to gain valuable points on the game Itself. Horseshoes, handball, tennis and golf will be the order of events, so grab your favorite and do your durndest. The way Charlie Morgan is trotting around the campus after his recent escapade with the unruly ladder, we wouldn't be a bit surprised to see him hobbling around the track on crutches, seeking a position on the Viking track squad. * * THAT'S ALL. Pop Gunn Charts List of Questions To Awaken More Baseball Interest 10. 11. 12. 13. —ASKS POP OF HIS CHARGES— In the hit and run must the batter connect with the ball decided upon? Should the fielder throw his glove at a hit ball? Does a left-handed batter help in case of a steal to second? Should the ball be bunted toward the pitcher? Is the captain of the home club the sole judge of the fitness of the ground for the beginning of the game? Do right-handed hitters usually hit balls to right field? Is second base placed inside the intersection of the base lines? If ball rolls on fair ground first then on foul territory but finally settles on fair ground is it far or foul? Is the bat gripped tightly for a bunt? After trapping a baseruhner should you try for the put-out at tlje base he is trying for or the base he has just left? If a base runner is hit with a batted ball who gets credit for the putout? Do outfielders use the underhand throw for the plate? May four and ahalf innings ever^ constitute^ a full game? • 'BASKET-GETUM'AND Coach Gunn Refuses to Comment on Outcome or Game But Sam Talks RIVALRY EXTRA KEEN To Sam Carver, and his 1 o'clock gym class the championship of the gym classes is all settled, but "Pop" Gunn and the 8 o'clock class says its all a big-gyp. But, making a long story short, Carver's 1 o'clock gym class defeated Gunn's class for the school championship of basketball, the final score of the battle ending 37 to 25. The rivalry between the two classes was extremely keen. Both teams took the floor confident of victory over what they considered as a set-up. The starting of the game showed signs of what was expected to outclass some of the best of the Varsity games. \ Carverites Lead After the first five minutes of torrid play, Pop Gunn signaled his men to take it easy so that Carver's Pets wouldn't get discouraged. Taking advantage of the break, Sam's boys forged out into a two-point lead at half time, leading 13 to 11. During the half the afternoon boys were administered a shot of "basket-getum" and went out and quickly increased their lead, .until it became apparent that the opponents could never catch them, unless they played an overtime, and at this stage the .crowd that had filled the "little gym" began to disperse. Coaches Interviewed Coach R. E. Gunn remained silent on the matter of the outcome of the battle, but hinted very strongly that his boys were far superior and that any other day they could have beaten the tar out of their opponents. He also admitted that his boys were good losers, in fact, too good. When interviewed, Coach S. E. Carver talked very freely of the victory of his proteges, and admitted that the boys stood up well playing against Varsity men. Line-up of scuffle: 8 o'clock 25— 1 o'clock 37— PPPPP

WASHINGTON STATE NORMAL SCHOOL, BELLINGHAM, WASHINGTON Friday, July 29, 1932. MINS DATA FOR STUDY OF ACTIVITIES Two Hundred and Fifty-two Give Answers to Survey in Assembly Women's League Tea Next Thursday to Be Scene of Much Gaiety INFORMATION IS USEFUL Only two hundred and fifty-two students responded to the questionnaire on club activities that was prepared by the Inter-Club Council and distributed in assembly, Tuesday, July 19. Helpful information was obtained from this survey. Of the 252 who answered the questions, 148 are or have been members of a club and 84 have never belonged to a club. The number belonging to each club follows: W. A. A., 25; Dramatic, 25; Vanadis Bragi, 23; Alkisiah, 16; Philos, 13; International Relations, 19; Scholarship, 10; Pep, 12; W. Club, 10; Y. W. C. A., 9; Social Science, 9; Tri-C, 17; Parliamentary Law, Z-, and Choral, 4. The statistics show that W. A. A., Tri-C, Vanadis Bragi and International Relations have proved most beneficial in teaching. Other answers and questions from ' the survey follow: Which type of club do you consider of most: value? Answer—Literary, 155; Dramatic, 137; Social, 126; Musical, 68; Religious, 40; Economic, 43; Industrial, 39; Political, 52; Debate, 36; Pep, 28; Athletic, 82, and Parliamentary Law, 59. Question—Has your club participation in any way benefited you in community activities? Answer-^-Yes, 105; no, 43. Question—Have you had any need for parliamentary law? The Blue Room at Edens Hall will be the scene of much gaiety next Thursday afternoon when the Women's League entertains the women of the school at tea. Music and drama will be the high lights of the program. Each week tea and wafers are served in the Women's League Room. The girls have worked to make the teas enjoyable weekly gatherings and a means by which students could get better acquainted, and have succeeded well. For quite a while, however, they have planned to find and feature school talent and at last the ambition is about to be realized. Christine Albers, talented young pianist in school, has consented to give several numbers during the tea. At 3 o'clock a group of girls from the Drama Club, under Mr. Hoppe's direction, will present a short, clever skit entitled "The First White Woman." All the girls in the school are invited to attend the tea, which.prom-ises to be one of the most enjoyable Women's League affairs of the quarter. The hours are from 2 o'clock until 3:30.

Greater love—and all that sort of rot! You can call it love—I'll call it darned foolishness. A lady's husband told her she was too beautiful —and being too beautiful—too many of ye stronger sex glanced askance at her. The lady took a strong caustic and smeared it upon her too beautiful countenance! Result? The stronger sex will glance the other way for awhile! Hey! Iss there no yustice? A local headline stated that a murder trial cost the taxpayers $50,000. Quite a racket—this murder business! And profitable, too! We hear a zoo in St. Louis has a new ; chimp champ—his name is Sammy. All samee Normalite—yes? ^Many families, so 'tis written, are seeking jars from the Red Cross. Let there be peace! By coming to the Normal—and obtaining a seat in the rear of any of our classes on the day the grades are returned; they'll see numerous jars, any of which are gladly gotten rid of. August 8, 9, 10 and 11 have been selected for a series of lectures which Dr. Henry Neumann, author and lecturer, will give in the Normal school auditorium. Dr. Neumann will speak primarily concerning "Four Outstanding Recent Books." Willa S. Cather's "Shadows on the Rock," James Truslow Adams' "The Epic of America," Ole Rolvaag's "Their Father's God" and Van Wyck Brooks' "The Life of Emerson" will be reviewed in consecutive order at 8 p. m. beginning August 8. Two assemblies, one Monday at 11 o'clock and the other at the regular time on Tuesday, will be presented with Dr. Neumann as speaker. The lectures are to be free to the public. Has Written Books Dr. Neumann is the author of "Education for M o r a l Growth," "Drums of Morning," " M o d e rn Youth and Marriage," and his brochures consist of "Moral Values in Secondary Education" and "Teaching American Ideals Through Literature." "Moral Education in College Teaching" and "The Child—His Nature and His Needs" comprise chapters written by the famous author. Having graduated in 1900 from the Business Administration College in I New York City with a Phi 'Beta Kappa honor, the lecturer attended both Cornell and Columbia, where he obtained his doctor's degree. He then returned to the Business Administration College and taught education and English. Later he acted as instructor in moral education at the University of Wisconsin, after which he taught in Ohio State University and the University of California. The Brooklyn Society for Ethical Culture claimed him for a leader since 1911. Again, he acted as vice-president of the Lincoln Settlement for Colored People. Neumann's home is in Brooklyn, N. Y. -o :— It is something of a mental journey from "Camille in Roaring Camp'* to "Alison's House," especially with "Liliom" and "Cradle Song" as way stations. Yet this is the route which the audiences have taken this year with the Normal Drama Club under Mr. Hoppe's able direction, which always lifts the dramatic productions on this campus well out of the class of the amateur. Pulitzer Prize Winner "Alison's House," the 1931 Pulitzer prize play, is a unique and interesting play by Susan Glaspell. It is not obvious just how far the author intends to mirror the life of Emily Dickinson, .poet of the nineteenth century, who for a time was almost forgotten, when suddenly our postwar decade again became aware of her poetry and pronounced it great. At any rate, the play changes Emily Dickinson's environment from the cloistered New England college town of Amherst to an unnamed Iowa village on the banks of the Mississippi river. We are made to feel Chicago's cultural needs, not Boston's intellectual assurance. Main Character Dead If the meaning, or meanings, of "Alison's House" are somewhat obscure, that did not prevent the cast from portraying characters in whom we were very much interested. The real heroine of the play, Alison, never appears; she has been dead eighteen years.. Yet we feel her influence— even her presence—as did Elsa Stanhope, Eben and Father Stanhope. This in itself was an accomplishment and much praise is due Dorothy Fiala, Preston Wright and Mr. Hoppe, who played those parts. They made Alison as real to us as she was to them. Miss Fiala had the most difficult role, yet she interpreted it with feeling and understanding. fully made vivid. Leatha Is Humorous Vernon Leatha's callow college youth (Ted Stanhope) brought some very welcome humor into the play. College boys were not very numerous at the "turn of the century" .and probably there were no typical ones. Mr. and Mrs. Hodges (James Butler and Evelyn Swalling) also gave us an opportunity to laugh. They carried, their parts with such ease that we welcomed their reappearance even though the Stanhopes did not. The Yankee tang in James Butler's voice tickled our ears. The nice young reporter and aspiring poet, Richard Knowles (Roger Chapman) was so engaging that Recital and Lecture Will Be Presented In Next Assemblies (Continued on Page Three) o Louise Van Ogle Gives Review of Popular Opera Characters Well Portrayed Mr. Wright, as Eben, showed much intelligence in his acting, and especially in the way he spoke his lines. If he never lost himself completely in the part, still we sincerely sympathized with Eben's quandary and -well realized there was no humor in his remark, "If I didn't have to do anything for awhile, I could do something." Mr. Hoppe, as Father Stanhope, clearly made us feel the values that the nineteenth century held dear; family unity and family pride, dutiful performance of disagreeable duties, and a code of honor rigidly adhered to. His fear of the ruth-lessness of youth and the destructive forces of a coming age were skill- Mr. Ruckmick to Attend Columbia Industrial Classes Will Visit Foundry Congrats are in order!

The exact date has not been set definitely yet. Students will be given the opportunity, then, to see the metal poured into the molds on a larger scale than it is done here. One of the projects in junior high school industrial arts is to make a pattern and cast it in metal. Lead has been used in the past quarters, being cast in the form of paper weights, book ends and in some cases paper knives. Acting as a delegate to the International Y. M. C. A. organization in Detroit, Mr. Herbert Ruckmick, of the industrial arts department, will fly eastward in his "Chewie" during the latter part of August. He represents the local Y's Men's Club of Bellingham. Although the first part of the trip will be made as quickly as possible, Mr.' Ruckmick is deeply interested in making this into an industrial excursion. In Detroit, besides attending the convention, he plans to visit the Ford plant at River Rouge, and then go on to Akron where the Goodyear rubber plant and the airships will claim his attention. Chugging along, he will pass up the Great Lakes and travel to Buffalo. Some of his time will be spent visiting the boys' camp in the Adirondacks, where he taught; for eight years. During his year's leave of absence, he will attend Columbia University, where he will elect philosophy and psychology; By ETHEL PAGE The student body was entertained in Friday's assembly by Mrs. Van Ogle, of the music department of th Ueniversity of Washington. She gave in the form of a reading with musical illustrations a review of the popular opera, Schwaiida, the Bag-pipe Player by Weinberger. She presented the old folk story of the temptations and the adventures of Schwanda, the virtuoso bag-pipe player, with a subtle wit that was very entertaining, holding the interest of her audience. She played several of the song themes of the opera and several of Schwanda's dance tunes. She presented several of the clever musical ideas which Weinberger works out so aptly in his opera but we feel a certain regret in that she did not give us more of ---------- Northwest Viking - 1932 July 29 - Page 2 ---------- ^5^l!P#l ^ WASHINGTON STATE NORMAL SCHOOL, BELLINGHAM.

Under a large painting of a scene on Chuckanut drive is the wording: Recreation—Industry— Normal School. On the side of the sign board a description of the Normal is briefly outlined. Standing as it does to the north of the city where visitors from Canada, and visitors from the south returning from Vancouver, may see it, the Normal school will undoubtedly profit from this sign board publicity. MORE P U B L I C I T Y for the Normal school will unquestionably be a good thing. With our decision to retain football as an intercollegiate sport we will have need of plenty of advertisment to bring players to our school and an audience to our games. If we are going to make football a semi-professional activity and a paying proposition it will take much publicity, and much effort on the part of the Associated Students and the Administration. This sign board advertising is a step in the right direction. B U T P U B L I C I T Y for the Normal school should have and does have a larger significance. The City of Bellingham has one of Washington's five large educational institutions. More than that this school is one of the outstanding schools of education in the United States, recognized nationally as a superior institution. Bellingham has never taken the initiative in pointing us out to her visitors nor even in giving us ample recognition in the community itself. If we take the lead, perhaps Bellingham will follow and support us and our activities as they deserve to be supported. Between Classes By P A T ALLAN A gentleman was committing suicide. Nearby stood a policeman, armed and capable. The gentleman was about to jump off a bridge. , But the policeman, nearby, armed, and capable, rose to the occasion and a bit of quick thinking. "Here!" he snarled, "what's the big idea?" "I," said the gentleman "was once a stock broker." The policeman stopped to reflect. Should he let him jump, or should he shoot him and make sure? He drew his gun. "Stop, or I'll shoot!" And the man stopped, but they were both killed in a wreck on the way to jail! Moral: If you are a stock broker and start to commit suicide, nothing can stop you. A Day $ | ; ^ ^ ^ By ROMA HENDERSON ,, Better than that is the story about the man who went to sleep in front of a mirror. He dreamed he lived his whole life, and at last, old, bearded and penniless, decided to kill himself. He had turned on the gas and was growing faint when he woke up and stared in the mirror. The shock killed him! But the queerest death of all is the death of the henpecking Mohammedan lady, just widowed, who stabbed herself so she could see that her husband didn't have too good a time with the houris in heaven. -y—•» u lltl According to the dean of men at a large Eastern school, between 30 and 50 per cent of the male students at American colleges are doing part time work outside school hours to help themselves through. No, gentle reader, Young America has not lost its backbone. If a fellow hadn't been watching the papers closely, he'd think the Eighteenth amendment had been repealed at the amount of rosy, sunburned noses there are around here. MR. V. H. H O P P E again scores with an excellent performance. The Drama Club is one organization the school can be proud of. Each quarter of the school year the Drama Club under the direction of Mr. Hoppe presents a play of outstanding merit and each time the play is presented in a creditable manner. The work of the Drama Club might well serve as a model for the founding of other organizations. o The big recreation event of the summer quarter has been completed. Mount Baker has been scaled. To the recreation committee, all hail, for planning such enterprising and successful trips. o ,- WE WISH to thank the administration for responding to a recent editorial in the Viking and checking upon the lighting of the library. The present lights have been given a careful inspection and reports indicate that the light over the charging desk is much improved. Extremely utilitarian are the smart new robes made of toweling cloth. Best for the beach and just as good at home. Correct Costume Jewelry Along my way I did a little window shopping and I did see the most attractive necklaces, bracelets, rings and other things that would just "make" a costume. They are so novel, so good looking and—stop me before I forget to tell you that they are all priced less than a dollar. When you are down town tomorrow do see their display at MULLER ASPLUND. Now for a Bite to Eat Just a word to the weary shopper who will want to have lunch down town. You will go about your business refreshed after you have visited the LEOPOLD MALTED MILK SHOPPE.

Many excellent suggestions for the stimulation of club life in this school were received. Some suggestions were free Klipsun pictures for clubs; more and better publicity, both in assemblies and paper; credit for outstanding achievement in clubs; more inter-club co-operation; better qualified leaders in clubs; elimination of club tryouts; dropping of inactive members; activities for summer students as well as regular students, and making it necessary to join at least two clubs and attend them regularly. Many students thought that more co-operation could be fostered by better attendance of club members at the meetings. Compulsory attendance of club members was favored. "ALISON'S HOUSE" IS REVIEWED BY CRITIC (Continued from Page One) To stimulate an Interest in the forthcoming national election a group of Normal students have formed a Roosevelt - for - President Club. At the organization meeting held last Tuesday, Tom Durham was elected president. Other officers elected were Irene Mars and Wilbur Farmer, vice-presidents; Leslie Ab-shire, secretary, and Charles Gerold, treasurer. It was decided that the club would not charge dues or other fees, but would endeavor to raise the finances through club dances or similar activity. Mr. Edward J. Arntzen spoke to the club on the future and promise such an organization holds. His talk was very enlightening. He very ably discussed the economic barrier of the present tariff. All men and women of this school between the ages of 21 and 30 are invited to attend. "It makes no difference what party or political convictions you may now have," says Tom Durham, "you are welcome to study our organization." The club has not taken a definite platform for local politics and agreed that it would not until after the primaries. The next meeting will be held in the Mount Baker Tea Room, next to the theater, on Tuesday, August 2, at 7:30 o'clock. o The girls of El Nido Lodge, accompanied by their house mother, Mrs. Downs, spent Sunday cruising among the islands of Puget Sound. Captain Garland's boat was used for the trip. even though one stood ready to condemn the publicity he represented, one was glad when he "wooed and won"—to use a phrase of the mauve decade—Ann Leslie (Christine Albers), who was regarded as more than just a stenographer. In fact, she was thought -of as one of the family by all save Louise Stanhope, Eben's wife. Louise voices vehemently all the platitudes of respectability. Ethel Page was natural and convincing as Louise. Gertrude Hancamp, as Miss Agatha Stanhope, and Margaret Owen, as Jennie, were, in very fact, old guardians of old things and old ways. Meaning of Alison's House What was fashionable because quaint or ugly; what was much to be condemned, finally is condoned, or forgiven and forgotten; what was held guarded and held sacred, is seized and carelessly thrown to the mercy of the four winds. Is this the meaning of "Alison's House"? Or shall we accept the caricature of Eben and Richard Knowles that there is a debt to art, and hunger for art of Chicago's populace must be satisfied at the cost of Father Stanhope's (and Louise's) sense of family obligations and the fitness of things? Or do we agree with Elsa that Alison's understanding of love's imperious demands on a woman must be reiterated to a censorious world? Maybe one should say with a recent newspaper critic, "Why all this pother about a few old love letters?" To which a witty woman replied, "There has to be a pother about something."

Some of the cash customers will believe nothing else than an eclipse has happened when these two dusky runners come. dashing down the home stretch. Anyway, some of the boys will begin to think that day has turned to night. See where Connie Mack, the elongated manager of the Philadelphia Athletics, has threatened to disband his collection of pennant winning ball tossers at the end of this current season if they don't come through with another pennant. Well, fourteen' years was quite a spell to wait for a winner after he disbanded his 1914 championship outfit, and if Mr. McGillicuddy (Connie Mack) decides to do that little thing again, it's a 10-to-l bet that he will be past the century mark before Philadelphia sees another world series. It seems as though the only players he is inclined to keep are Jimmy Foxx, the league-leading home run swatter, and Mickey Cochrane, the American League's best catcher, until Pepper Martin stole everything but his socks in the last world series. Scoring Wilson from second with a smart single through pitcher's box, Glenn Rockey, Gobbler leaguer, proved himself the hero of the day when his team dropped Rhodes' Rummies, 9-8, last week. Rockey's timely hit capped a three-run last-inning rally by the Gobblers of Gable. Rummies Lead Up until the last of the seventh, the Rummies held the game well in hand and almost had a victory cinched at that point with a two-run lead. However, homers by Gaasland and Siler in quick succession, a double by Wilson and Rockey's single spelled defeat for the downtrodden Rummies. Homers Plentiful The game was marked with three home runs. Adkinson, loaned to the Rummies, boomed out a four-bagger with two aboard. Gaasland and Siler slapped out their circuit clouts with the bases clear.

McBeath scored a 77 for the day's efforts. "The less said about that the better," was the retort a staff writer received when Sam was asked for his score. Aas a matter of fact Sam intimated that he stopped count at the century mark. Skotheim Climbs Scotty Skotheim dug down into his bag of handball tricks and dished up his finest exhibition of the year to relegate Bill Osborne to second place on the ladder. Skotheim now occupies the ceiling roost with Gunn and Leatha following Osborne. Chandler Drops Coming through with a fine flourish, Frank Forstrom threw rings all around Myron Chandler's last year's record to climb into the initial notch in the horseshoe ladder. Adkinson is now reposing in second place, with Chandler following. LEATHA'S LILACS TRAP RATS 8 TO 3 Vernie's Boys Outplay Rodents .. Bert's Even though the Seattle Indians are riding in the second division of Coast League standings, it isn't Freddie Muller's fault. The young second sacker smashed out his twenty- eighth home run Wednesday night to further his lead in the home run department. Nothing less, than an earthquake can keep Muller out of tthe majors next year if he keeps up the sensational hitting the rest of the season, although he is a little weak in the fielding department. But what the majors want is players that can hit 'em a mile even though they have to keep straw in their hats to protect their heads from fly balls. i / 2WITTS N O W L E A D I NG I N T R A M U R A L BASEBALL "Pop" Gunn's lung tester is the center of interest at the P.

Saw where Eddie Macomber, the handy Andy of "Pop" Gunn's baseball team last spring, did a fairly good job of chucking the Weyerhauser ball club to a victory" over another city league team. Macomber would be a welcome addition to any ball team—he was one utility man that could catch, play infield and outfield all in one afternoon and do a fairly good job of each. / / any of you soft ball fans want to see some powerful swatting just travel out to any of the local mush ball games. Cable, the Cobbler manager, has collected as fine a bunch of hitters as anyone would wish to see. Led by Wilson and flanked by Jim McCleery, the outfield possesses as much power as any outfield, in the league. With Siler, Roul and the 205 -pound [first baseman, Gaasland, and possibly Hugh McCleery holding down : positions in the infield, it's going to be tough on any pitcher who takes it unto himself to try and tame this gang of stick wielders. Hugh Mc- : Cleery is only a possibility as he has just finished a sojourn in the pest house and may not elect to play any soft ball this year. But at any rate it wouldn't be a bad idea for the opposing teams in the league to supply their outfielders with bicycles. O. K, KALAMAf l'M'- In Wednesday night's play hour game, Stoddard's Clan outslugged Jim McCleery's Muckers in a 12-to-8 slugfest. Cy Boulton, Stoddard's starting chucker, had too much on the ball and had the Muckers eating out of his hand-all afternoon, save for a blow now and then. McMackin Homes Going into the fourth inning with a 4-to-l lead and two men on the sacks, McMackin crashed out a homer for the Clan, putting them into a lead that was never overcome by the Muckers.

It makes us sad to think! That while the city of Chicago is unable to pay the 10 million dollars in salaries due its 18,000 teachers, it continues to contribute 20 millions annually to the coffers of Al Capone's organization; Or that in a teacher training institution, an instructor is given cause to lecture a class of experienced teachers for one hour on the merits and demerits of cheating in tests; But, anyway, it's not true that President Hoover patted the head of the wolf hound that bit a Marine guard and remarked: "Nice doggie! Now go bite General Butler." W.S.N.S. Twenty-ftoe school pedagogs from large United States cities have endorsed as highly successful their recent experiment testing the efficiency of talking cinemas at ameth-od of instruction in the schools. Governor Roland H. Hartley holds the distinction of being the only governor in the Union who failed to send a boy and a girl of at least grammar school age to Washington, D. C, to take part in the experimental examiations which were given there. When refusing, among other things, he stated: "One of Americans alarming problems is the mounting cost of public education . . . The thought of adding to the unbearable burden by the addition of talking movies . . . . is inconceivable . . . . Inova-tions already introduced have undermined the quality of education . . . . amply proved by the policy of spoon feeding." W.S.N.S. We fail to see the exact connection but it somehow reminded us of the reply of our one and only first grader, who has lived all his life within a 4-mile radius of an extremely isolated farm, when asked what a dandelion was. "A dandelion," he said; "is a lion that behaves himself." W.S.N.S. Clarence Darrow's movie "The Mystery Of Life," by which he will endeavor to educate people to his contentions on evolution, has been declared "indecent" by New York's State Board of Censors, because it shows views of the human embryo, child at mother's breast, spiders mating, etc. Personally, we consider the mystery of life as something quite beyond even a Mr. Darrow; but we've viewed many movies we would consider less decent, than one which offers to the general public some of the knowledge being taught in every institution of higher learning throughout the country. W.S.N.S. "Unless drastic measures are taken to save it, the capitalistic system throughout the civilized world will be wrecked within a year. I should like this prediction to be filed for future reference," Wrote Montague Norman recently to Governor Morel of the Bank of France... We wonder just how such a wreck Would affect the everyday life of the average individual. . p FORMER NORMALITE RETURNS THIS QUARTER Margaret (Peggy) Green, of Seattle, is attending Normal for the test five weeks of this quarter. During previous attendance here, Miss Green was very prominent to dra-matics, taking the lead in several LOCAL CHORAL WORK Beginning August 3 and lasting for three days, the famous Freiburg Passion Play, from Freiburg, Baden, Germany, will be presented daily at the American theater. Thirty-one orchestral numbers, which will be furnished by local talent, and eleven choral numbers selected from well known oratorios, will accompany the pageantry processions. The chorus is composed mainly of Normal students, who have been working for several weeks under the direction of Harold B. Smith, of the Music department. Premier in 1264 The Freiburg Passion Play, first presented in 1264, was begun, according to Black Forest traditions, as a religious offering for the lifting of the plague which ravaged Europe in those days, according to Adolf Fassnacht, world famous Christus portrayer and manager of the Freiburg company in America. However, the authentic records of Freiburg, although they lend some color to the tradition, do not make it conclusive. The church records, which are the principal source of reliable information regarding the Middle Ages, indicate that the play was begun in a very simple way as a means of imparting religious instruction. The dates of the early presentations are on record and religiously guarded. "Play That Built a City" In the year 1264 A. D., when the first Passion Play was produced in Freiburg, that place was just another hamlet in the eerie depths of the Black Forest. The play might well be known as the "play that built a city," for Freiburg is now a city of 200,000, a cultural center, and home of the University of Freiburg.

QUARTETTE FEATURES MUSIC PROGRAM. "O, Lovely Night" and "Gypsy Love Song" were only two of the delightful ballads sung in this morning's assembly by the Plymouth quartette. Miss Margaret Moss Hemion, soprano; Miss Winnifred Auckland Lundberg, contralto; Mr. Marshall Sohl, tenor; and Mr. Walter J. Reseburg, bass, compose the quartet and are directed and accompanied by Arville Belstad. Ninth Program This is the quartette's ninth program, all of which have been enthusiastically received arid well, at-ttended at all places. The Plymouth quartette has an enviable record of re-engagements, that speak well for the quality and beauty of their programs. From Seattle This quartette of singers come from the Plymouth Congregational church in Seattle, Wash. They are well known in Seattle, appearing often in concerts, oratorios, weddings, banquets, receptions, club programs, and radio broadcasting. Although the quartette features its "ensemble," the members are often engaged for individual programs. The program for this morning was arranged as follows: Dr. Alfred Laurence Hall-Quest will deliver a lecture on "Public Education and American Culture" in next Tuesday's assembly. The career of Dr. Hall-Quest has been a notable one and has included many activities which should qualify him to speak on this subject. While acting in the capacity of director of high schools for the University of Cincinnati, whose work is affiliated with the public srhools, he touched intimately all tha phases of supervisory work in a city slhool system. Executive Phases His duties as director of extension at the University of Pittsburgh, and as director of the Milwaukee school, led him into executive phases of educational work. He has attained prominence as an author.

Selections Enjoyed Among the selections On the program that were most enjoyed by the audience were Shubert's "Aye Maria/' "The Flight of the Bumble £ee," by Rimsky-Kdrsakoff, and "Le Coucou," by Daquih-Manen. in the second group, "Gypsy Airs,'' by Sarasate, with its plaintive notes and wild, ecstatic passages, was very favorably received.

Featuring the passing of a popular measure in regard to admission of students to the coming Drama club play, the Board of Control met for the first time in two weeks at a special meeting Tuesday morning. This special hour was necessary due. to the Board picnic, held Wednesday afternoon and evening. Ask Aid President Colin Campbell brought up the fact that several students had asked that the Board see that students be admitted on student activity cards to the play, "To the Ladies," without the 35 cents that had been placed on them as an admission fee. It was reported that the officials in charge of the play were willing to admit the student body on their tickets if the Board would agree to make up the deficit in funds, which would run close to $100. Motion Carries A motion was then made and car ried that the Board take care of any deficit resulting from the tak ing away of the admission fee. Colin Campbell, by mutual con sent of the members present, is to change the wording on the next group of activity tickets so that they will be null and void if pre sented by any other than the legal owner.

After lunch, the evening was spent, in singing and in reminiscing of former school days. This club, which is purely social, and which functions during the Summer quarter only, was organized about twelve years ago for the Normal students who have been, at some time, residents of the sagebrush country of Washington, Oregon, ---------- Northwest Viking - 1931 July 24 - Page 2 ---------- W i ^ H I N G T O N i ^ NOR: Formerly The Weekly Messenger—Founded 1899 Published evfery Friday except during the month of September, by the Associated Students, Washington State Normal, Bellingham.

JACK GREAVES.. ..Editor ..Business Manager OFF T H E LAWN—ARMY! The NORTHWEST VIKING is considering the sending of dimensions, of local campus walks to the National Guard unit of Bellingham so that they may develop a formation that will "fit" said paths when they are using Normal school property as a thoroughfare for a line of march. We are not aware of the privileges accorded them while "on parade,' but we know that we expect everyone, regardless of rank or title, to keep on the walks and off the lawn. Wednesday night the Guardsmen, in a formation much wider than the walk in front of the library could accommodate, took a short cut across the lawn, marched up the walk with several on each side trampling the grass, took another short cut near the end of the walk, and finally stepped obligingly from our "pride"—it extended no further. We have no idea as to who was in charge, nor what the particulars of the case might be, but it was evident that they were in no hurry to reach a destination. We do everything possible to keep people from trampling the greens, and compliment the students for their co-operation. We cannot conceive of anyone taking an entire unit across well kept and recently watered lawns of "private" nature, nor can we conceive of the utter disregard for school property. Certainly it is apparent that much care is used in keeping the campus in a prime condition, and there is no cause for any to overlook this fact. It is quite evident that a whole group of guardsmen, heavy shoes and all, will prove injurious to lawns when on the march in such a manner as was displayed. There are no excuses to be made, the way we see it, and we wonder if there wasn't "something or other" lacking on the part of the leader. Individuals are halted from treading the grass, but when a "whole army" adopts such a practice, something should be done. It doesn't speak well for military courtesy. NO ADMISSION FEE The Board of Control acted wisely with the officials of the Drama club play when they decided to take off the charge for admission to the coming play and let the students in on their student activity tickets. The Board did not allot any money in their summer budget toward the cost of putting on the play, and, consequently, it was necessary that an admission price be charged. However, at the last meeting the Board reconsidered this a"ction and decided that they would make up any deficit, presumably out of their general funds, that might be incurred by the club's not charging for the production. The students were forced to pay higher than usual when they registered this summer, due to legislative acts cutting the local school's budget, with the ultimate effect of having an extra fee attched to the cost of registration, tl is true that, in the main, Summer quarter students have more money for such things than those during the other three periods, due of course to the fact that so many of them have been employed during the winter as teachers. If the fees run higher and then the students are charged for all these extra activities, it would soon mean that the one that hasn't been teaching would be working under a handicap. This would ultimately lead in a certain small degree to holding back the student that is financially pressed. After all, he is the one that should be thought of mostly, and therefore as long as the Board finds itself able to take care of the expenses on the play, it seems that they kept the students in mind by adopting such a measure. We are sure that the rest of the students as well as the writer will feel that they have a group looking out for the common interests. PHOTOS SUGGESTED While on the subject of the Board of Control, we note that they are going to attempt to stop the passing of activity tickets from one to another because people are gaining entrance to school affairs without having the proper pass for such. At the present we know that some of this is going on, and, consequently, outsiders are gaining access to school dances and sport events, but to a small degree at that. It js the rule to keep them out of dances, owing to the ethical standpoint of having Normal school dances well regulated. In the case of athletic events it means less money to be paid by the students in the long run if an admission price is collected from all outsiders. However, each person lending the ticket thinks only of personal reasons and one can't blame him much at that. The attempt to stop this transfer of the pasteboards is going to be worked through the wording so that they will become null unless the owner, whose name appears on the card, uses the pass directly. We are in favor of the attempt to regulate this practice, but we can hardly see how the signature system will work in any manner or to any degree of efficiency. If the person at the gate knows the one coming in, there is nothing to be solved for they will be using passes, rightfully obtained by being in school; and if they don't know the person who has signed the card, they will not be able to prove just who is using the pass, anyway. We suggest a "Hollywood fad photo" pasted in one corner of each ticket. CONVENTION IS HELD CHRISTIAN ENDEAVOR MEET ATTENDED BY HENDRICKS. Among the delegates to the recent world-wide Christian Endeavor convention, held in San Francisco, was Miss Ethel Hendricks, a student here at the Normal school. Motors South Miss Hendricks, who started for San Francisco by motor on Thursday, July 9,: was accompanied by Miss Ida Iverson, of Everson, Wash., vice-president of the Washington State Christian Endeavor society; Miss Vera Peterson, of Mount Vernon; Miss Marjorie Wilson, of Mount Vernon; Mrs. Oscar Hendricks, of Mount Vernon; and Hilary O'Toole, of Bellingham. The delegates from Washington arrived in San Francisco on Saturday, and, contrary to all expectations, were forced to don their heaviest clothing to keep warm. They forgot the coldness in their excitement, however, and, after establishing themselves in the Lankershim hotel (headquarters of the Washington representatives), they found themselves plunged into the' excitement of the convention. o WILL FEATURE DENNIS IN SERIES HERE SOON Ruth Weythman Investigation Reveals "BOBO" SHAFFER ENJOYS HIS MANAGERIAL WbRK Hobby List Used With the Seasons ALWAYS GOOD Having become a definte department within the school, and having built up a tradition of giving something worth while and entertaining to the studetns, the Drama club has denoted itself as something to be watched and patronized. These plays put on each quarter have been so well worked out and so well selected that quarterly production rests on a solid foundation of faith placed in it by students, faculty, and townspeople. They have never disappointed their audiences yet, arid have many times gone far above ex- . pectations of the early dopsters. One reason for their popularity and ability to surprise many with the high class bits of playing is based on the fact that they get plays above "high school" caliber; arid the type that students do not get chance to see just anywhere, and they are well developed. With this surety of a good production always holding good, we advise everyone to take advantage of the opportunity. The cost of admissionhas been taken away, and all will be; admitted on their activity cards, so that lack of finances need not bar anyone., y^-^^A'-'W •m Ralph Dennis, dean of he school of Speech, Northwestern University, who will appear here soon in assembly, is a lecturer, traveler, and philosopher. Guide Post Once, when asked if he had a motto, a guide post, for living, Mr. Dennis exclaimed, "At least forty! And most of them now discarded! A simple 'Do your job!' will carry most of us a long way. And when things go wrong, irretritevably wrong, I chuckle and find relief in an old saying of a friend, 'This is Hades, but the directions say TAKE IT'." While on leave of absence from Northwestern University, where he has been a faculty member for thirty years, Mr. Dennis has had many varied experiences that have enabled him to build his philosophy of life. Varied Walks From 1908 to 1912, he was successively a settlement worker in Chicago, a bank cashier in a Western state, and a resident, for a year of walks and talks, of reading and study, in a Vermont village. "What thing in life interests you most?" he was asked. "People," was his answer. "The great parade of humanity. It is a wonderful show and I enjoy it." Mr. Dennis has no convictions— to impose on other people. His convictions are for his own use, and he believes in others getting the facts and forming their own opinions. In 1917 Mr. Dennis went to Russia as a Y. M. C. A. worker, but, after about six months, he became an American Vice-Consul, attached to the Moscow consulate. Later, he visited Rostov-on-the-Don, Kharkov, .Petrograd, and Nizhny Novgorod, where he saw rioting, executions, food requisitioning by the solders, and all the confusion of the first year of Bolshevism. Mr. Dennis claims that he was born twice. To use his own words— "Once, more years ago than I care to remember, and again in Russia during the revolution in 1917-18." In 1926 he again visited Russia, and intends to make other trips to that country. He believes that Russia is going through a stupendous experiment, overwhelming in its possibilities, and that, if Communism succeeds, the world can begin to write a new history. Mr. Dennis spent the year of 1925-26 in Switzerland. During this time he studied the League of Nations, and attended all meetings of the council and assembly as a representative of the press. Interested Mr . Dennis tells of an amusing but gratifying experience while on FOUND A Place.

"I like working with training school students very much','' she said, "because their responses are so different from what you have expehted." Hobbies Change "My hobbies," she said, "vary with my moods and the seasons. I like skiing and knitting in the winter, and hiking and golfing (Ah, me; will they never cease!) in the summer." Miss Weythman enjoys doing things with her hands—knitting and camp-craft work being among her favorite pastimes. She acted as head water sports counselor for the New York City Campfire Girls' camp for one summer; and while she was located there, she did various types of work.

WASHINGTON S T A ^ N O R ^ NETTED GEMS TAKE INTRAMURAL LEAGUE PENNANT IN SERIES TEAAI WINS BOTH GAMES OF PLAY-OFF FROM WALTERS' PANSIES TO END LEAGUE. FINAL GAME RAGGED I n the final game of the Men's Intramural Basketball league last night the Netted Gems defeated the Purple Pansies by 29-21 score, and proved .themselves champion of the league. The game was a ragged affair, neither team having its regular line-up on the floor. The half ended with the score 22-10 in favor of the victors. The win gives the league championship to the Gems, winners in the second division. They defeated the Pansies, first division champs, Tuesday in the first game of the play-off series.

The win evens the series, as the Vikings were de-. feated by the same team here in Bellingham last week. GEMS CINCH TITLE FOR SECOND HALF DEFEAT FIRST HALF VICTORS WITH THREE POINT LEAD. DEFEAT SCORE PANSIES BY IN FIRST OF LARGE SERIES. The tossers playing under "Spud" Hunnicutt showed their prowess and fancy shots to Walters' Purple Pansies Tuesday night, and came. out of the game with a 37-19 victory and the first game of the three game series tucked roughly under their belt. Less Rough And roughly tucked it was, but the boys were improved a little and the game did not progress in quite the football fashion that seemed to be a decree of the evening before when the same two squads met. However, the play was as fast as ever; and whenever two of the strongest teams in the league get together on the "cigar box dimensioned" Little gym, the fur is bound to fly. As usual, the Gems threw a few catcalls as they were checked by the "ref" for making the said fur fly. The first half started out with the Gems taking a lead both in floor play and in scoring, but the losers seemed to take a new hold on life a little later in the half and began to be the aggressors in taking the ball down, and ultimately brought the score to a tie at 11 points. Score Heavily Aided by the services and sharp eye of Thorsen in the last half, the Hunnicutt following soon started tossing in the points and put the game into the bag a considerable length of time previous to the final-whistle. They scored 26 points, to the losers' 8, in the final canto. Comfort led the losers in scoring, as well as the two teams. He got 11 points, which he had to fight hard for, and several of them were quite cleverly made. Thorsen came into the game in the second half and made nine points, while Drees-zen came through with one less.

'. Miss Weythman attributes the unusual amount of interest being shown in the course to the fact that people are beginning to realize the possibilities in camp craft for elementary and junior high school pupils, and. for themselves, as well. The purpose of the class is twofold. First,' it embodies; a study of various girls* club; organizations; such as the Camp Fire Girls and the IFour^H ?(plubs,. acid, the psychology wWch prompts toe?program^ I n the last game of the second half of the Men's Intramural Basketball league, the Netted Gems revenged the two point defeat that they received earlier in the season, by defeating Walters' Purple Pansies 22-19 Monday afternoon. This victory gave the second half lead to the Hunnicutt tossers. Rough Play The game was one of the roughest to be played in the league this summer, and it was practically impossible for Referee Gunn to call a lot of them, as three and four men would go to the floor after a wild dash for the ball. Each team used.large men, and the play was fast, with the score being close at all times; consequently, it was not a case of the players using much deliberate roughness. Both teams matched the score even throughout the first half of the game, and just before the half way mark was reached, the winners tossed in a basket as several players jumped for the ball close in. This made the score, 11-9 in favor of Hunnicutt's Gems. Take Five Point Lead The final period of play went along closely, but in the last three or four minutes the Gems stepped into a five point lead which the losers were only able to cut to three points. Walters was high point man of the game, with twelve points checked up for him. Thorlackson and Dreeszen followed this, with six markers each, and Thorsen and Comfort each took the honors for five digits.

Cabin Below Timber The cabin is located a very short distance below the timber line. Above it there are beautiful meadows of pink and white heather, blue lupine, yellow asters, and numerous other colorful flowers native to the hills. After a night's rest at Kulshan, Saturday morning reveille was sounded by Mr. E. A. Bond, official leader, for an early start up the mountain at 4:30. The party reached the Saddle at 9:30. There lunch was eaten. Interest Point A point of interest was the old ctater, from which issued puffs of sulphur fumes. Glacier Peak, Mount Riaipier, the islands of Puget Sound, tlie'jNobksack and Fraser Rivers and the|r valleys, and the Canadian mountains were seen from this ppiint;-- also Lake Shanon, the sBurceof water power for the plant a | 11 Concrete.

Wool was studied in the most detail, while the other three textiles were brought in as incidental subject matter. Each child washed, carded, spun, and wove his own bit of wool. In the process of dyeing their wool they were led into a study of dyes. Natural dyes were made from berries and Oregon grape roots. The dyeing brought in the influence of dye on design. Three kinds of looms were made. The box loom is a very simple type. The Indian loom is the kind used by the native Americans in making the beautiful Navajo blankets. The children all wove rugs, either in the plain ,or in the design weaving. This brought in another feature of design and called to their attention the fact that it may be achieved in different ways., , They also wove mats of the wool, which they had prepared themselves. ored by specially written and dramatized songs. See Caves On Sunday morning C. A. (Happy) Fisher led a party of eighteen out on Roosevelt Glacier, where they viewed crevasses and ice caves. Roosevelt Glacier is one of the largest of the Northwest, although it is often not given full credit for its size, as a considerable portion at the lower end is covered by volcanic ash.

Captain Garland's boat was used for the voyage. - Barren Shores The island is a comparatively barren and wind-swept tract of perhaps three acres, with a very,thin layer of soil above the rock foundation. One or two white granite boulders may be found as dropped by a glacier in past ages. Hundreds of gulls have chosen Vidi as their nesting place; and as the boat drew near, the air was filled with (fluttering, crying sea birds. The nests were built of grass mainly, although some of the eggs were laid on the bare ground. I n color, the eggs were gray-brown hottled with darker brown. They are rather pointed at one end. Their shape helps to prevent their rolling over the cliffs easily. Rescue Mate The young birds were like balls of yellow down, flecked with brown. One in his excitement at the visitors fell into the water, and at once the whole flock of adult birds swooped to his rescue, flying low and pushing him with their bodies, and uttering frantic cries, until at last they managed to drive him away from the dangerous current close to shore. Five or six cormorants, upon arrival of the class, deserted their meal of fish and settled upon a neighboring rock island to wait until the place should 'again be deserted. It was impossible to view their nests closely, as they were built in inaccessible positions upon the sides of the island. Boat Grounds A little excitement was experienced upon leaving when the boat grounded on one of the rough rocks just beneath the water and refused to be refloated for a few minutes. It was at last, pushed off with a pole, and the homeward journey resumed. A bald headed eagle being chased by a gull and a crow was sighted near one of the islands, and a mirage of a forest was seen over the water to the east. For tomorrow, an all-day trip to Austin pass is being planned by Miss Hilda Rosene, teacher of the course. o DR.

XXIX—NO. 55 WASHINGTON STATE NORMAL SCHOOL, BELLINGHAM. WASHINGTON Friday, August 15y 1930 Allegory plus Moral —By Catherine Morse ALLEGORY Once upon a time, there was a Certain Parly who attended a Perfectly Normal School for a Certain Period of Time. Being of Moderate Intelligence, , he proved to be pretty Well-liked by his Teachers and Friends during his stay at this Perfectly Normal School. Now like many of the more enterprising of his Friends and other Inmates of this Perfectly Normal School, this Certain Party, our Hero, held down a Responsible Position on the School Publication from which Heights, so-called, he frequently, although with questionable taste, would make Debunking Remarks upon the Established Customs and Institutions of the Perfectly Normal School... Now no one took particular exception to these Debunking Remarks because they all knew our Hero quite well, and while they made suggestions and sometimes even intimated that the Certain Party was stepping a bit too far for any Perfectly Normal School, they grinned to themselves and thought that his vagaries were Pretty Cute... Well, when the certain Period of Time was up, the Certain Party decided to go to a Well-Known Institution in order to Complete and Further Augment his Education. Our Hero enjoyed his Education there,-and even added much to his store of learning — a truly strange occurrence, knowing that Certain Party—and decided to spend his Vacation back at the old Perfectly Normal School. His Friends and the other Inmates told bur Hero that they Were glad to see him—all of which was pleasing— nay, ever flattering to the Certain Party. He Was offered a Responsible Position again on the School Publication which he needed no coaxing to accept because it Afforded him the Opportunity for Which he had been hoping. Now, he could pick up where he left—so he wrote as he had been used to before he went away to a Well- Known Institution. Well, after the first issue of the School Publication, people reacted as they had of yore, but after the Second Issue, they thought, "That Certain Party has been to a Well-Known Institution now and has no use any more for a Perfectly Normal School". Others thought, "He's high-hat now; we are not good enough for him". Others not being deep enough to pierce the real purpose of that Certain Party said, "The School Publication travels all over and just think what an impression it is going to give Outsiders!" • (-never thinking thft Outsiders Would never believe itij•;orily'good was said of the Institution, anyway) and Still Others said that that Certain Party was Disappointed in Love. But that Certain Parly managed to survive and the School Publication sustained a Wee Bit More of Reader Interest because of it. But that Was not the End, no, indeld. That Certain Party continued, to worry about it and Wonder why he should be demedor at least criticised so severely on making use of Freedom of the Press just because he had been attending a Well-Known Institution whereas before his Migration, his Debunking Remarks were only regarded as amusing. However, the Entire Workings of the Mind of that Certain Parly cannot be traced, but the end'^was reached without any .Conclusion, so that Certain Party wended his) Weary Way • hack to the' Well-Known Institution and Wondered.^}^ ^•'.'] h Fisher Declares 1033 Enrolled Summer Session President Fisher Tabulates Figures on Summer Enrollment; Whatcom County Sends Largest Number in Slate.

She writes: "I saw a pelota game last night (night is literal, as it lasted from 10:30 p. m. until 1:00 a. m.) The game is fast and interesting" Miss Ullin visited a cabaret where she saw an old Spanish dance which proved to be most delightful. She found the Alhambra "as lovely as expected". After.a visit in France for study she will return to her work at the Normal, in October. JackJBlack^of "You Cant Win" To Speak Tuesday Goats Disturb Pass Hikers 'x*The best trip of the year". "The most beautiful the pass has been in recent years''. With the above statements and many more like them, forty hikers from this school came out of Hannegan.Pass last Sunday, evening, having spent the week-end rambling about the hillsides and meadows in the lap of the pass. Noted Authority on Criminology to Address Student Body in ^Tuesday Assembly. An Unusual Character. Students in Art Appreciation to Exhibit Lantern Slides in Auditorium Monday. Pictures Well Reproduced Monday morning at 10 oclock the class in Art Appreciation, under the direction of Miss Marie C. Druse, will present a program of lantern slide reproductions of famous world paintings. The showing will be made in the auditorium. The collection includes the works of most of the famous foreign and American painters, and augmenting the showing of the slides will be a short discussion of the picture by members of the class. "The slides are excellent reproductions", Miss Druse declared, "and the class members have been working hard to work out good interpretation^' of them. All of the students are invited to attend the showing, and we think tliat they will welcome an oppotunity to see these good paintings and to hear them discussed" FORMER NORMALITE VISITS FROM MOSCOW Lorin Barker, former Normal student and prominent member of the i gt;rama Club, visited school last week. Mr. Barker will be superintendent of schools of Marysville this coming quarter. He comes to thjs coast from Moscow, Idaho, where he was superintendent of schools. '"• T ~ - ° ~ ~ — • — — ' • ' : RESERVE LIBRARIAN TO VISIT IN CHICAGO. WILL GO BY BOAT Miss Pearl Reese, reserve room librariatn, will make :I trip to ChiV cago during the summer vacation. She expects to take part of the trip by boat, stopping at Prince Rupert and spending a few days at Jasper Park. Miss Reese intends to visit her pwents wha live hi Chicago and to According to the mountaineers, wild goats were very tame in the pass this summer, coming right into camp and disturbing the regular routine on several occasions. These timid animals are usually hard to approach, but because of the re striction on shooting them have become less afraid. Jack Black, famous author of 'You Can't Win",' and lecturer on criminal and sociological problems, will speak in assembly Tuesday, August 15.,'., ': " Mr. Black promises to bea most interesting speaker on the subject in which he is most informed, having been at one time on the 'inside' of the criminal world. Unfortunate accidents of environment, misdirected imagination and an intense love for adventure, led him into professional crime, into various prisons, into every sort of harrowing and illuminating experience. Finally, through books, right' thinking, the aid of Fremont Older, and Judge Frank H. Dunn, of San Francisco, Jack Black was somehow saved to tell the upper world about the under world. "Truly a man of fine character and marked mental abilities, Mr. Black has a dry humor, a certain subtle magnetism and_much flinty underworld philosophy which make him a new kind of speaker for the lecture platform". — o- Normal Students Find Fossils on Sucia On Recent Excursion Choral Club Will Present Cantata Friday Morning Students who visited Sucia Island recently report that slides have uncovered fossilized fish and shrimp. Arrow-heads are found in places showing that the island was once inhabited by Indians. The land sank beneath the surface where solid rock formed over these objects. The land was raised after a period of time. The freezing and thawing has caused the slides which reveal the fossils. A large tooth an inch square and three inches long was recently found. " • gt; Victoria Trip Great Success Mr. Zoet, clas of *28, visited school last Friday. Mr. Zoet has just finished at the University of Washington, receiving his master's degree in science. Next fall, Mr. Zoet will at-they tend Stanford University where he ] has a fellowship. Victor IfcppeStat^ Dramatic Entertainment In Letter Editor, The Viking, Washington State Normal School, Bellingham, Washington. August 11, 1930 My dear Editor: Please accept my thanks for the fine publicity given us hi our production of "The Pigeon" and for your generous words about our performance. This splendid co-operation of our school press is very heartening. May I, my dear editor, make some comment on our Drama Club plays and our student audiences. As director, it has not been my wish to be unduly "high-brow" in the dramatic fare dffered our audiences. Our plays are not picked because they are difficult or bizarre. They are selected on the basis of an attempt to help interpret this complex business of living. This interpretation may be comic or serious, hilarious or sad— for life has such elements. Then, too, we want to do something a little different in entertainment from the commercial brand always available on Main Street. Our audience being young and full of the joy of life, we cannot conceive it as our obligation to merely while away the passing moment. Surely with jazz, the talkie, the "rec" hour and all the extracurricular "whoopee" that our students make for themselves so nicely, we should be freed from the ---------- Northwest Viking - 1930 August 15 - Page 2 ---------- WASHINGTON STATE NORMAL SCH POi^BJElLINGHAM, WASHINGTON Formerly The Weekly Messenger—Founded 1899 ' P u b l i s h e d evfcrjr'Friday except during the month of September, by the Associated Students, Washington State Normal, Bellingham. ; •• •• "; 'V--.-,_. .

T h e Victoria trip, (and. this is straight from the shoulders of some four hundred and fifty Normalites,) was; a bigger success than the most optimistic publicity writer, had anticipated. Tn e . .committees arrangements went off without any difficulties being encountered, and the conduct of the "student body was a credit to the institution. 1 Victoria affords unusual places of interest, and we believe that the holiday was the outstanding event of the years program. As an adjunct of the Educational curricula the excursion holds a unique position, because many, students found that the trip contributed more to them in certain positive ways than several days of. struggling through classes, (with due apologies). gt;•••; *We believe that by planning for the trip well in advance of the sailing date, and by doing a lot of wholesale buying of entertainment before the party arrives in Victoria, that the trip could be made sufficiently inexpensive- to allow for a complete, turnout of the student body. .By setting the date early in the quarter a conflict with coming examinations would not be felt, and the trip could easily become the outstanding recreational institution of the Normal. CAMPUS GADGET If you haven't examined the new water sprinkling gadget which has been performing on the lawn under the auspices of Gardener Dack this week you should certainly do so. It is really a marvelous creation, and one capable', of .watering the grass in the most graceful fashion. It reminds one of a very agile scarf dancer. But don't try to absorb the wonders of this mechanism all at once. Take time. Study it for thirty or forty minutes. Concentrate oh the exhaust pipes that throw: their alternate streams of water. You will be rewarded, because itis-easily the most significant gadget that has appeared in these parts, in .many, months.- • •'.'' \ '- We know what we are talking about. As a connoisseur of steam shovels, cigar lighters, and patented automobile' accessories," we. haven't been hypnotized by a creation lately'that showed half the ingenuity of this new device. •..''. ,\.,,-,• V PHOTOGRAPFTY EXHIBIT : ^ '-'People who haven't seen the photography classes* exhibits will undoubtedly be amazed at the beauty of the photographs which will be shown in the men's club room next week. It is riot commonly known that amateur photographers can in as short a' time as six or eight weeks learn to do as excellent Work in creating art as will be demonstrated in the exhibit. Much of the work, too, will have been done with simple little box cameras. - — . That people are becoming conscious of the pleasure' to be had in photography is evidenced by the increasingly large numbers of people who crowd the classes. SUMMER STUDY Studying in the summer time isn't what it is said to be in the catalogues. At least that is as we have found it. We begin our .day in a lethargy, take our lunch in a torpor, and struggle home in a stupor. If we drag ourself to class, it is to be overcome with a sort of sweet ennui.*To concentrate on any one point is to bathe our brain in oblivion. So, about all we do anymore is run through our schedule every day, and let the momentum pf Having registered carry us through. Although, of course, we dream once in a while bf acquiring ourself a little island, with a single palm tree, where we can betake ourself to lie all day, with a few cocoanuts to drop in our lap when we are hungry. The only thing that would spoil that would be to have to move now and then to follow the shade around in the sand. . . Occasionally, too, we have to wrestle out an editorial, but we've even gotten so that we just put our fingers on the typewriter and let them stumble around as best they can and get our column out for us. Which, when you study it, is just, about what we've been doing for the last half hour. .-,-•'. *~ GRIFFITH'S I Rainbow Beach Invites You to j Lake Samish Dance ELKaBAND ] Every Saturday and Sunday Nights i r ~* NORMAL HOSIERY SHOP V - ' Across from Nortnai Library ' • FULLF^HIONED BERKSHIRE HOSIERY; Lingerie ffhd'-Nptions MunsJtii Silk HoseMended MATRIMONIAL ADVENTURE UPHELD ;BY;N0RMALET^ TO the columnist who objected to having matrimony termed. an adventure; ' '•;.-. • '••-• Greetings :' ; is matrimony an adventure? My dear, you don't know the half of it! Adventure—hm-m-m—that comes primarily from uncertainty; doesn't it? You venture into new country; you know you will meet .the unusual and do—that's adventure. Well—you venture into matrimony, probably with someone you have known a long, long time. You know him (or her, as the case may be) thoroughly. No chance of adventure there, nb chance of. the unusual, you.know exactly.what he will do under every circumstance. Oh, you do, do you? If you are laboring under that delusion, don't get married. Your adventure won't be fun. It will be an. unpleasant surprise. But, if you marry knowing that the person you are going to live with is not, and cannot possiby.he, the person you have been going to shows with and taking long hikes with and^ all the rest that constitutes the thrill of an acquaintanceship and engagement, then, I say, you have the joy and thrill of real adventure coming to you. For it's true, absolutely. Ask any honest person who has ever sailed the broad seas of matrimony. You can get a "kick" out of it^all the fun. of exploring the unknown; or, you can hate like poison your step from secure certainty to a wobbly little. craft that- may splash you with bitter salt spray forty times a day; but it's adventure nevertheless. Oh, My, Yes! —M. X C. G. H. WORRIED OVER INEQUALITY OF SEXES? My Dear G. H.: It is quite evident that G. H. is worried. What difference who is the more important creature—man or woman? Doesn't G. H. realize that "mind" is not superior to "matter" when either is concerned with the other? Love is two foul things after each other. Who would be so educated as to use the Sunday funnies as authority to prove either superior ? Does G. H. think for a moment that she was made to "live" and take a place in life without the male Trie same applies to trie male.

Made love to two Victorian maids, and purchased a cane in a French gift shop.

Baker. See Normal Hike Trail. '^-'yMoMay-.evexiinjg; Pres. C. H. Fisher- H. O. Ruckmiclc, Miss -Zeal Z. Wilson and Paxil H. Rule flew over Mt. Baker in a Ryan monoplane piloted by Herb Buroker. Leaving thei Fenidale landing; field at 4:30 p. m., they circled over Bellingham following the shore north to Fern-dale, thence to Lynden and from there they followed the course of the Nooksack River as far as the Glacier district:. Continuing on, they passed over the Baker crater on the north side of the mountain and then circled the dome of Mt. Baker at an altitude of 10,500 feet. The trip to the top took about one hour and twenty minutes. Motion'Pictures Taken Mr.'Ruckmick took motion pictures of the takeoff, the crater, the dome, Kulshan Cabin, Mt. Baker trail and general views depicting the scenic grandeur of the country.-The pictures cover from a high point of view, the Baker hike trail, which many of our students and faculty members have treked over during past summers. Mr. Ruckmick reported seeing a large forest fire which is now raging in Eastern Washington. In climbing, they were unable to gain more than 75 to 80 miles per hour. Due to the circling for altitude, it took approximately one and one-half hours from the takeoff until they reached the top: Speedy Return The return was much speedier. Gaining a maximum speed of 110 m. p. m., they circled over Lake Whatcom, Lake Samish, south to the far end of Chuckanut Drive and then up the bay to the airport, completing the trip in about two hours. Miss Wilson, in comparing it to the. time she. flew over the English channel, said: "In crossing the channel we were 2000 feet high and I could easily feel a sense of speed. On this trip it was as if we were suspended in the air, passing nothing, going nowhere, just floating". In commenting on the trip, Mr. Ruckmick said: 'You can- plainly see the fertility "of the Lynden farming district which is in sharp contrast to the regions higher up. The weather was ideal for the trip". Mr. Rule stated: "It gave me the same exciting thrill that you get from riding in a smooth running automobile". • . o LOCKS LEAVE Clarence and Franklin Lock, former Normal students, left Friday, August 7, for Yakima, Washington. The date of their return was not definite. vwwvwywvwuwuwww SCHOLARSHIP SOCIETY HOLDS PICNIC" AND DANCE •.- v;.';o';- At an election of officers for the fall quarter held last week, Victor Bidwell was named to the president cy of the Scholarship Society. Agnes Sollie was. elected to serve ; as vice president, and. Dorothy Martin as secretary-treasurer. They will succeed President Edith Dyer, vice President Cora Walton, and Secretary- Treasurer Mildred Early. The last meeting of the summer of the Scholarship society took the form of a picnic and dance at Rainbow Beach, Lake Samish, oh August 6. .-,: As a good appetizer for the delicious outdoor banquet which followed, many members of the society and their guests plunged into the warm'waters of Lake Samish. A would-be all-star baseball game was played #after dinner until the Rec Orchestra tuned up and then merry-making began in earnest. The Rainbow Beach hall was a scene of the dance and many moonlight waltzes were in demand-Y sk Mr. Arritzen if you doubt the statement The end of a perfect evening was a final swim in the moonlight—both by boat and water. The various committees . that helped plan the evening of fun were: Recreation, Katherine Gass, Edith Dyer, Dorothy Martin, Louis Bassett; transportation, W. B. Davis; refreshment, Dorothy Martin, Agnes Sollie, Chloris Fisher, Reta Allin-son.

At the present time their total assets are one cow and no place to put her. ilt is the wish of these three young gentlemen that their story be told from the very beginning. It happened in the following manner: . Time—Midnight. Place—Bellingham and suburbs.: The Characters— The aforementioned young men plus one Ford car and one cow, to whom the name of Betsy will be given. Main Object—Contemplating on entering dairy business. Fallowing is a list of difficulties encountered in the business enterprise: Catching cow, where to put said cow after being caught, inability of aforesaid male characters, plus help of Ford car, to catch animal. Where Animal First. Encountered —Near Normal school. Object—Looking for grass with no intention"'of arousing the ire of George Dack, local gardener. Action—Three men sneak up behind Betsy with malice towards none and with justice for all, and with the predetermined intention of catching said cow. Cow too smart (evidently received some course in technique which boys are not familiar with), starts off in gentle, easy swing, increasing as the time went by until speed limit set by local cops was attained. Cow then reverts back to ancestral stage and walks across the lawn, which throws boys completely off course. The gentlemen walk on the walk and refuse to cut corners or. cross lawn. As a result said bovine creature gains great deal on local cowboys. Ford car now in use. Mr. Westall driving Ford car down Sixteenth street, Mrs Rajala walking on one side. Mr. Dewey on the other side. Ford slowly gaining on cow. People stick heads out of window admiring circus and throwing coins at boys. (John is wearing a new suit now).

Procession swings down Holly amid the shouting and cheering of thousands of loyal milk drinkers. Parade believed to be headed for old red barn on Central avenue, which houses police headquarters. On arriving at "Home" bovine creature is taken into custody until three heroes arrive. Upon inspection of said cow it is found she is Dry, or in Other words she refuses to let down her milk, which causes boys no end of grief.

S. N. WHEN CLARKE GABLE, JACK QAKTK, LORETTA YOUNG, JEAN lt; PARKER, AND THE REST OP THE BIG SHOTS MOVED INTO LOCATION AT MT. BAKER, NEAR BELLINGHAM, THE STUDENTS AT THE STATE NORMAL THERE PELT THAT HERE WAS A WONDERFUL CHANCE TO MEET THEIR HEROES AND HEROINES OP THE SILVER SCREEN IN THE FLESH. So-o-o-o, as Ed Wynn would say, the boys and girls breathlessly arranged one of those discreet and genteel pink teas for which our Normal schools are so justly noted and invited several of the well known cinema artists. —o— CLARK AND LORETTA, AND THE REST ARRIVED IN GOOD ORDER TO PARTAKE OP THE STUDENT'S TEA AND AUTOGRAPH THEIR NAPKINS, BUT THE NORMAL WON'T INVITE THAT NASTY JACK OAKIE AGAIN, APPARENTLY HE DIDN'T TAKE THE MATTER SERIOUSLY ENOUGH, AND TO THE STORY GOES, WAS IN A MOOD MORE JOVIAL THAN OUR BEST MINDS CONSIDER SUITABLE FOR A NORMAL SCHOOL TEA. And as a result the lads and lassies from our sister college couldn't get Jack's autograph on their napkins. In fact, Jack just wasn't signing his name at all that day. The author of the column must have felt jollier than Jack Oakie did that day! * * * * And if- yon are presented with a petition asking that CRLBBAGE be included on the list of major sports, don't sign it—it might be real. —BSNS— Also, Button, Button, who's got the button? Football Topic Of Discussion During Meeting Board of Control Hears Reports On Recreational Program And Rec Hours Twelfth Night' Is Progressing Division of Drama Production Little More Than Twelve Nights Away Department Heads Leave for Meeting On Eastern Coast Shaffer Named Chairman Student Committees To Be Chosen To Further Co-operation Hell Week, just one of the season s social events at the "U," is tough on the unseasoned undergraduates, claims the campus medico. He says thai one of the youngsters who had been losing a lot of slumber because of the celebration came to him to get patched up. While pulling off some adhesive tape the kid fell asleep and again when the M. D. was explaining the use of a prescription to him. The doc must be used to making classroom lectures. * * * * That someone doesn't appreciate the monicker, Huey Long, has been evidenced in a recent bit of spite legislation that socked the Vikings in a tender spot. Railroaded through the Board of Control, this progressive new ruling calls for a bulletin of the board's doings to be posted immediately following each meeting. This pinches the news boys in Discussion of football occupied much of the time of the February 13 meeting of the Board of Control. Coach Lappenbusch submitted the tentative schedule of games for next fall season and asked the board's decision on having spring football. No step was taken on this subject. A report that the recreational program is well under way was given by Louis Shaffer, who also said that Agnes Martin and Dick Newlean were acting as supervisors of the games. It was decided that a standing committee should be appointed to take charge of this new movement. President Millikan named Shaffer as chairman to be assisted by Joe Hager and Nancy Jane Smith. Rec Hour Conduct Discussed Various members of the Board aired their opinions on student conduct at rec hour. Rather than making the same group of persons permanently responsible, the Board voted to appoint a student committee each week to work in co-operation with the faculty committee in making the weekly dance a success for a greater number of people. In view of the fact that there was insufficient time to complete the business before the board, it was decided to table discussion of requisitions until next week. Last night the members of the board met at Normalstad for their winter social. At this gathering, the old members were bid adieu and the new ones were welcomed. By Nancy Jane Smith "With the dates of the production only three weeks in the future, the rehearsals for 'Twelfth Night' are coming along on schedule," says Faith Scheyer, assistant director of the play which the Speech department, Division of Drama, is presenting March 7, and 8. When asked how they thought the play was developing, Maynard'Pon-ko, Helen Scott, and Victor Dickinson, three of the leads in the drama chimed, "Oh, very nicely," or words to that effect. Delightful bits of comic relief are being conceived by the several actors carrying humorous parts, especially Hebert Wilkinson and Glen Greseth, who play that well-known and often quoted pair, Sir Toby Belch and Sir Andrew Aguecheek. On the theory that "all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy," the cast took time off from their labors on Wednesday for an impromptu tea party. o Hoppe Will Speak Before Convention Bond and Upshall Are Delegates To Educational Convention In Atlantic City Drama Teachers To Discuss Meet At Seattle Theater Russian Vocalist ^o Sing Ballads And Folk Songs 1( (Contniued on Page Four) o =— Vikings To Week-End Hardy Norsemen To Revel At Glacier Cabin Proving that they are true sons and daughters of their hardy Norsemen ancestors, the members of the Viking staff will this afternoon take leave of dear old Normal and Journey to the far north, Glacier to be exact, where they will spend the week-end. "Amusements will include skiing, a scavenger hunt, hiking, and plenty of just plain 'mincer," stated Nancy Smith, "a member of the entertainment committee. About twenty-five members awexpected 66attend; While there they will stay in the Mount Baker club cabin. Saveli Walevitch, one of the first Russians to introduce old Russian folk songs to America, will bring a varied vocal program to assembly February 19. Walevitch conveys a deep knowledge and understanding of the different types of people of his country in his songs and ballads. These are significant in that they represent the life and customs of the people and are spontaneous authentic creations. The rendition is governed by mood and circumstance, and the artist himself must be unhampered by conventional style to interpret this music with freedom. The strange appeal of the many different programs of Walevitch has led to his many tours in the United States and Europe. He has given over 250 recitals. o March 2 Designated As Date for Much-Debated Excursion To Meadows Assembled yesterday, the convention of the Natonal Theater conference, Northwest section, is now meeting on the University of Washington campus. Victor H. Hoppe, head of the Normal Speech department, will speak this afternoon on the subject of the amateur point of view as compared with professional attitude. Besides the addresses of the drama instructors, several skits will be presented by the University of Washington Department of Plays, whose head, Prof. Glenn Hughes, is in charge of entertainment. A prominent New York playreader and dramatic critic, Barrett H. Clark, has also been engaged to speak. The conference is primarily devoted to the speech departments of institutions of higher learning and little theater" movements. Dr. C. C. Upshall of the Research department and Dr. E. A. Bond of the Mathematics department will leave today for Atlantic City, New Jersey, where they will attend a conference of the National Education association. They will be gone about two weeks. Dr. Bond is one of the twelve mathematics departmental supervisors who will meet at this conference this month. Dr. Upshall will attend meetings of the division of research. They expect to arrive in Atlantic City on February 22. There they will attend meetings for two days. They expect to arrive back in Bel-lingham about March 1. Dr. Upshall is going in place of President C. H. Fisher, who is the secretary of the American Association of Teachers' Colleges. President Fisher will be unable to attend this conference because of an important meeting at the state legislature.

E. Bond At Luncheon Radio Broadcasts Feature Education "The Plight of Education" will be the subject of a radio broadcast next Thursday by Harold Rugg, professor of education at Teachers' College, Columbia University, and William D. Boutwell, editor of School Life. This broadcast will be one of a series on "Economics in a Changing Social Order" given under the auspices of the National Advisory Council on Radio in Education. The broadcast may be heard over station KOMO at 7:30 p. m. The subject of the broadcast next week will be "International Economic Adjustments." Addresses will be given by Dr. Henry Grady of the United States State department, and Norman Thomas, Socialist leader. At a luncheon held at the Bel-lingham Hotel yesterday afternoon, Dr. E. A. Bond, instructor of mathematics, addressed the members of the Lions club on the ' subject of "New Deal, Anti-Depression Legislation". James E. Bever is scheduled to speak at a meeting of the club some time in the near future. Dean Bever will probably speak on the history of the northwest. Last year President C. H. Fisher and E. J. Arntzen spoke at meetings of the club. The subject of Mr. Fisher's speech was "Higher Education in the State of Washington". Mr. Arntzen addressed the club on "Population". o Students To Enter Good-will Contests Plan Dance and New Constitution At Tuesday Meeting Valentines, candy-making, card games and cootie were diversions provided last night for about twenty Valkyrie club members at the Forest Hill apartment of their president, Gertrude Hall. Miss Hall presented the new sponsor, Miss Marion Lea, circulation librarian, who will supersede Miss Beatrice Doty, former children's librarian and Valkyrie adviser. The Valkyries met Tuesday to arrange the get-together. New members were introduced. Comprising a committee to investigate possibilities for a club dance on March 1 are Beth Hankins, Josephine Grass-meyer, and Margaret Hammer. Members re-read and discussed modernization of the present Valkyrie constitution. They decided to procure a speaker for the next meeting on February 9. o Instructors Attend Seattle Conference Weythman, Carver Go To Seattle To Attend Convention Document Written At Request of Men's Club Committee On Traditions Peace And Dignity Aim Organization Will Be .

This move at least settled the question of student dances. The students however were not quite satisfied with the arrangements made by the Board of Control. They believed it was the duty of faculty sponsors to spy on their actions. Not that anything ever went amiss, but simply that the faculty were more nearly deputies ^ T h ^ r honor court system, drawn uP by a stu-den committee and President C. H. Fisher, makes possible for a non-partisan student group to regulate or control the social functions of this institution. This proposed system will be up for discussion at the facufty meeting next Tuesday. If die faculty members see fit to place this responsibly m the hand of the students it is possible that new standards might justify their approval. Even if this is " * * « « • ? ll will be pleasing to some students to feel that the faculty gives them such democratic rights of control. -o Editor, The Northwest Viking: Among the bills now pending in the state legislature is House Bill 168, the title of which is the "Smith Bill for Optional Drill." This measure provides for the complete abolition of military drill in all high schools of this state, and makes it opional for all students attending either the University of Washington or the State College at Pullman. Organizations which oppose the passage are unremitting in their fight against it. A similar measure was defeated several years ago. If we are to see this thing put over now, it's up to everyone who is in favor of it to do something about it. Urge organizations of which you or members of your family are members, to send resolutions in its support to the legislature. Talk about it; let people in general know that such a bill is to be considered. Whether or not this bill is passed, is of significance to us, not only as citizens of this state, but as students also. Sincerely yours, ROSE WORKS. Dear Mr. Editor: See Hawaii at its best . . . perfect accommodations . . congenial companions . . . moderate rates. See the land of happiness and play . . . Go dancing at the Edens hall on Satur- The day evening. o Who's Doing What Ecclesiastes Human Brain Get Beyond Control in Its Ideas Bill Reviewed By Rose Works For the benefit of those unacquainted with the «on-troversy over military drill in our high schools and colleges, we present here a resume of the subject. Military drill contributes to the national defense through the training of leaders. It enhances national prestige abroad, thus adding to our "security". The course is invaluable as citizenship training, developing such desirable traits as honesty, courtesy, promptness and obedience, cultivating habits of discipline and subordination. Likewise, its value as physical training is emphasized. Teachers' Organizations Opposed Among the organizations, aside from church and religious groups, opposing military training are the National Education association, the American Federation of Teachers, the American Physical Education association, the National Congress of Mother and Parent-Teacher associations and the World Federation of Educational associations. : The annual cost of R. O. T. C. is over ten million dollars; this in a period of educational retrenchment. Last December the Chicago Board of Education proposed to double the number of R. O. T. C. units in high schols there, increasing instructors' salaries— with no increase in the budget. Training Is Poor The training offered, in infantry and cavalry tactics, .according to many authorities, is worse than useless. The War Department, in 1925, admitted that military drill is of slight value in preparedness, but assert that it is invaluable training in citizenship. 1 In many instances a direct contradiction in teaching is encountered. Students are taught that war is inevitable while statesmen seek peaceful solutions of international quarrels. How can one reconcile leadership training with the cultivation of habits of discipline and subordination? The suppression of individual initiative directly opposes the ends of higher .education. •....-• 'i In the treaty with Germany concluding the World -war a clause was; included requiring that educational institutions should have no connection with the ^Ministry .of War," or any miUtary institution. * TO what end ten miuion dollars a year?? Next Tuesday the faculty will vote on the proposed Senior Honor court. This measure will not be submitted to the students. If accepted by the faculty it goes into effect automatically. The Senior Honor court is the first child of the Traditions committee of the Mens club. The committee members were undoubtedly sincere in trying to promote self-government. But in an institution where during the past year the affairs of the Associated Students were little short of farcical, it seems that this noble experiment is doomed to fail almost before it starts. The Inter-club council has to be prodded every now and then.by the faculty. There is no limit to the cases this court might try. If you happen to be a dyed-in-the-wool Fascist and the court believes such men are dangerous—out you may go—. You may appeal but think of all the fuss and feathers. Of all the loosely built opportunities for raising hob and making snoopee under high sounding innocuous names, this is the grandest proposal in many a day. In dealing with boy-girl problems, just who in the Junior-Senior class today can say that he has enough tact, enough understanding of human nature, a medical background, and an adequate vocabulary to deal fairly with such cases? Since this measure was drawn up by a committee composed entirely of men it was natural enough that there was no definite provision made for a woman on the court. As the greatest number of students at WSNS are women, and as women as well as men come under the jur-sdiction, this is a flagrant slip. Nowhere in the set-up is there a provision which determines whether or not the person to be judged shall be present at the session deciding his case. Certainly this is most anti-social, anti-democratic. Too much power is put into the hands of the president of the court, who is also president of the Junior- Senior class. Knowing how ; class elections^ have been conducted in the past, I would hesitate a long time before allowing that person to decide thatevidence might or might not be admitted. I while I pride myself on being.a humanist; I fully believe,.that we should in this instance revert to O. K. All set for the low down? Have you noticed how contented MARY BENSON looks since BRIN-KIE BRINKMAN returned? Welcome home, BRINKIE! MILLER and TARTE take a back seat this week-end as MILDRED HENDRICKS and her fiance go inform-aling. Speaking of informals, HELEN NEELY was all set for a big time at the Penguin Prom when the one and only BILL MARTIN hove into port unexpectedly. JOHNNY MILLER was most embarrassed when his notebook fell apart in the library and he was almost buried in an avalanche of papers. ---------- Northwest Viking - 1935 February 15 - Page 3 ---------- WASHINGTON STATE NORMAL SCHOOL, BELLINGHAM, WASHINGTON IOC FROSH GAME TONIGHT!

Basketball Finals Start Thursday Portsiders To Face Danish Crucial Contest Monday; Southpaws Must Win In Vikings Win First Half Playoff May Be Necessary With Bartons T o Decide Title .

All his op posing centers have had the edge on him in height, but this fact hasn't stopped him from outscoring them in nearly every game. Besides this he's gotten his share of the tipoffs even against such giants as Eustace of Cheney and Hall of Ellensburg, and always plays a nice floor game. Incidentally, it might be mentioned again that this year's race has been one of the most enthusiastic and interesting for some time, with its share of the upsets. The Portsiders got quite a scare Tuesday night when the Erosh led them through most of the game in the Viking-Seattle college prelim. But they're still on top, and may get in on that playoff. Washington Freshmen To Meet Vikings Tonight In Return Game; Seattle College Team Defeated By Normal In Listless Game Tuesday; 42 to 19 Lappenbusch Hopeful of Making Two Straight Victories Over Husky Babes Vandergriend To Start Frosh Have Dangerous Men Walters and Werner In Watch next week's paper for the selection of an all-star intramural league team. The job this year will be no easy one, with the abundance of sparkling forwards and dearth of outstanding centers and guards. The pick of the forwards will have to be from such men as Severin, Hager, Singer, Goff, Turk, Stur-man, De Vries, Oilman, and probably several others. Outstanding guards are Angel, Johnson, Jacob-sen, Dioird, and Kvinsland. Just a squint or two around Coach Sam Carver is busy trying to line up prospective track men . . . A brother of Max MacKenzie, who high jumps six feet and throws the javelin, may enroll for the spring quarter . . . We're still waiting to see Dick Carver plant the casabe right on some dignified referee's necll in one of these games if the ref. keeps seeing- too many fouls . . . Workouts like Tuesday's Seattle college affair belong at the opening of the season, if at all . . . It's nice to see Fitzer steadily regaining his last season's form, but too bad the tri-normal games are already out of the way. can upset Ahern's Portsiders, it will mean a playoff between the Portsiders and Bartons for the right to meet the Northwest Vikings for the championship. Bob Lindsley's Newspapermen swept through the first half of the tournament in a breeze to win by virtue of eight straight victories. Lindsley's crew, however, . found themselves facing the second half minus such players as Carver, Stone, and Taylor, their scoring aces, and consequently have not clicked as they formerly did. The addition of Angel, Wooten, DeVries and Bolton has helped materally and the Vikings will be almost even money to take the crown in the championship playoffs. Portsiders Stage Comeback The Portsiders, dark horse team of the tournament, have come back this quarter, after playing second rate ball in the first half, to look like a real championship team. Under the fiery leadership of their manager, Jim Ahern, they have developed rapidly, the climax coming when they defeated the Barton's beanery crew after both teams were tied for the leadership. I n Jumping Don Singer they have one of the classiest forwards in the league. Ahern and Myers alternate at the center position while Mc- Cleery, Hoekstra, Ries, and Goff complete the squad. The Southpaws aren't a high scoring outfit but are deadly checkers and once they get a lead are hard to defeat. Their work under the basket has been especially brilliant. If the Portsiders win over Daniels Monday ,the playoff tournament will probably start Thursday. If they lose, a contest between them and Bartons will be necessary. Ahern's Portsiders Look Like Winners Bartons Hall Win Second By Beating Vikings Place After their warm-up tussle with the Seattle College quintet last Tuesday, the Vikings are due to meet a stiffer test tonight when they meet the strong U. of W. frosh basketeers on the Whatcom floor. The locals hold a 30 to 26 win over the first year men, gained several weeks ago in Seattle. Coach Lappenbusch is hopeful of making it two straight over the Frosh and if the Vikings play the same type of ball as they did against Ellensburg they should win what is certain to be a tough game. . Last Friday night in Seattle Ellensburg won a 2-point victory over Tubby Graves'- men by virtue of a couple of free throws converted by Sill just as the whistle blew. As the Wildcats had defeated the Vikings two nights before by a one-point margin, comparative scores show the teams to be closely matched. Werner and Walters Dangerous Werner, center, and Walters, forward, are two men that will have to be watched by the local team this evening as they are the main guns of the Husky Babes' attack. Werner is being groomed to take the place of Clyde Wagner on the varsity next year and so should give Carver a busy evening. Lappenbusch has named as his starting line-up, Vander Griend and Fitzer at forwards, Carver, center, and Stutz and Gagnon in the guard slots. Vander Griend, by virtue of his showing in the last three games, has won himself a starting position and will be working to keep it. With Fitzer and Carver hitting the basket pretty often lately the locals promise to be able to take care of themselves. Daniels Play Preliminary A grudge battle between Daniels and Barton's halls will start off the festivities in the preliminary.

Seattle Collegians Badly Defeated During Second Half Battle With Normal Team With Jim Ahern's Portsiders virtually established as second half champions, the intramural league will wind up Monder evening. Although the Portsiders have one more game to play, it is with Daniels hall and they should win handily. The Portsiders won their seventh straight victory last Tuesday by taking a close game from the Freshmen, 16 to 12. The game was played as preliminary to the varsity game. Goff scored 6 points for the southpaws. In the second game Tuesday, the Northwest Vikings, champions of the first half, lost another game, this time to Bartons Hall by a 34 to 30 score. Shenenberger led the newsmen with 9 points, while Johnson scored 8 for Bartons. Monday games resulted in the Scotchmen running wild over Edwards, 44 to 17, and the Men's club beating the Co-op 27 to 21. Stur-man led the scorers for the week by making 20 points for the Scotchmen. Weeks scored 12 for Edwards. Oltman was high for the Men's club with 12 markers, and Heller dropped in 7 for the Co-op. Coach Uses Entire Squad Fitzer, Carver, Star for Vikings in High Point Honors Seattle 19 Vikings 42 Finn 1 P Fitzer 11 Tobin 6 F Dombroski Olmer 4 C Carver 9 Hurley G Stutz 4 Coyne 8 G Cagnon 2 Rothstein Sub Vandergriend 5 McPhee - Sub Taylor 2 Carmody Sub Zambas 9 Sub Dorr Sub Edwards Doris Hyatt spent the week-end visiting a number of friends in Seattle. * * * Peggy Foster and Jean Soule went to Anacortes last Friday evening and stayed over Sunday. The Normal hoop squad soundly defeated Seattle College 42 to 19 last Tuesday night. During the first half the game was very close, but baskets by Fitzer and Carver gave the Vikings a 14 to 6 lead at the end of the first half. The playing of Coyne, Seattle College guard, was outstanding during that- period. At the beginning of the second period the Normal team got its plays to working and their ball handling became smoother so they started to lengthen the lead. Fitzer started hitting the basket in his 1934 style, his two handed shots being unusually good. Vandergriend and Zambas replaced Gagnon and Dombroski and the combination worked even better than before. Coach Charles Lappenbusch used his entire squad in the last half. Each substitute seemed as effective as the man he replaced. Fitzer Leads Scoring Fitzer led the Norsemen in scoring with 11 points. Carver came next with 9 points, followed closely by Zambas with 8. Edwards, Taylor, and Stutz were good in the passing department of the game and their floor work also stood out. This game marked the second victory the Vikings have had over the Collegians. ' With the WAA By Joan Hoppe Badminton Players Show Improvement With the first round of the badminton tournament completed, competition between the players is keener and a better brand of ball is being displayed. To date there has been no outstanding playing by any one man to have him acknowledged as a favorite, so some of the unknowns expect to cut in on first place money. Those who have advanced a round and will play against each other next week are: Roger Mullen and Harpld Lahtonen, John Mills and Ladd. Shangle, Louis Shaffer and Gordon Richardson, in the single matches. The double combination of Shaffer and Fritz Jensen is the only one that has advanced so far. Coach Carver expects to have the winners in the tournament picked by the end of next week. "Under a spreading chestnut tree" in Whatcom Falls park at an outrageous hour Saturday morning you won't find the village smithy standing. But in his place a jolly little group of WAA's will sit enjoying a much-needed breakfast after a strenuous bouncing, crossing town on the street car. Won't you join them? They're leaving on the 8 o'clock car—breakfast at 8:30—«nd no round trip tickets. Heather Meadows hike — Saturday, March 2 -*- Cable or no Cable — Is everybody happy? Before long there will appear on every proud WAAer a shiny, blue enamel pin with the WAA insignia in silver—and they won't be on sale at the five and ten either. Competitive Sports Defended; Lacking Only in Emphasis Says Viking Scribe Coming out of seclusion the association of athletic women held its monthly rally Tuesday, February 12. After an extended intermission there were many weighty problems brewing and for an hour or so the discussion ran high. As a result things are going to begin happening soon. March 9 the WAA's will be hostesses to a horde of high school athletes at the annual play day.

Normal Scientists Experiment By Nelson Ault A group of students from the Science department have come to the fore with the results of an ex= periment which they believe will revolutionize the modern school of thinking their report shows a great spirit of endeavor and is highly commendable. Data gathered by group of self-sacrificing scientists, in revolutionary experiment was aimed to uncover new data on subjects of mouse extermination. Subject: Very small mouse, extremely small. Object: Scientific means of complete extemination, and data on subject's reactions. Apparatus: 6-volt Edison battery, induction coil, waste basket, and two hot plates. Also potassium dich-romate, sulphuric acid and small breaker. Work done: Subject placed between two hot plates in waste basket and electrodes put in place. Current switched through mouse by way of induction coil at exactly 12:31. Subject's only reaction was involuntary placing of head through forelegs. Declared dead 12:6:10 seconds later. Removed to small breaker and current passed through body for 5.90001 seconds. Odor of subject very noticeable. Subject's tail showed remarkable reaction. Dissolved in acid and potassium dich-romate. Removed from premises by way of sink and sewer. Observations and conclusions: Only difference between college and kindergarten is that in college play is of a very slightly advanced level. Survey Reveals 257 Normal Grads Possess Seattle Teaching Positions Recent studies of the alumni files reveal that the Seattle school system employs 257 Normal graduates as teachers, 16 principals, and over 50 others who have attended here. "Positions in Seattle are hard to get," said L. A. Kibbe in praising the record. Cadet teachers who were students last year are Theona Flick, Viola Winterburn, Jack Schaeffer, and Herman Tegenfeldti These, together with Lois Reynolds and Janet Schechterle, who were elected to similar positions this fall, were visited by Miss Elizabeth M. Hopper and Miss Mary E. Rich on their recent trip. The following high school instructors are Bellingham graduates: Byron Payne, Fordyce W. Rhoades, Ballard; Florence A.

X X X I V . — N O . 9 WASHINGTON STATE NORMAL SCHOOL, BELLINGHAM, WASHINGTON Wednesday, November 27, 1935 Campus Chatter SURPRISES MEMORIAL FUND THANKSGIVING Evidently all the student opinions that found their way into the Viking office last week impressed the student body, although none was printed. All of these opinions concerned the usual unrest which prevails during most assemblies, and pleaded for a quiet, attentive audience. Apparently some few even read the editorial, and a few more read the item in this column, both in last week's paper, because, surprisingly enough, peace reigned in Monday's assembly. The unusual musical program f the Ecclesia choir was received with perfect attention and courtesy. Such behavior is a pleasant innovation! and assemblies could well stand more of it. * * * After assembly on Monday, members of the Ecclesia choir wandered about the halls in a rather lost fashion. One was heard singing to himself the strains of "Dark Town Strutters' Ball", while the others interestedly scrutinized the collection of animals down by the Viking office. They were just regular people after all. Another surprise came last Friday night at rec hour. The stag line was small and unobtrusive, and kept its place against the wall. The faculty guess were courteously treated, and were afforded a clear view of the dance floor. The student sponsors in charge of rec hour had provided entertainment ami comfortable seats for the faculty, and managed the entire affair very ably. All in all, it was one of the most successful of the whole quarter. • • • • On December 6, 7, 13, and 14, the Division of Drama will present its fall quarter play, "Three-Cornered Moon". The play is a hilarious comedy, and offers many surprises to the audience. The method of presentation differs completely from the usual style, in that it will be presented in the way of the Penthouse Players, in the Edens hall Blue room. To help to erect a permanent memorial to the memory of one of the greatest of Americans, Will Rogers, is the purpose of the Will Rogers' Memorial Fund. Normal school has been asked to aid in this, each student contributing whatever he is able. Let us not forget that man, his many lovable qualities, nor the outstanding part he played in American life and letters. Let us do our parts by filling that contribution box in the Co-op full to overflowing. Control Board Will Act Upon Co-op Situation Homecoming, Football Discussed At Meeting; Memorandum Procedures Assigned Informal discussion of Homecoming and football at the Board of Control meeting last night took the place of regular business. Action on the abolition of charge accounts at the Co-op was deferred until the next session when Sam Ford, manager of the school store/ will be present. The Board* agreed that a memorandum be made out on Homecoming and football procedures as a reference for future chairman. President Gordon Millikan will appoint a student to write it. Expenses Checked It was recommended that expenses incident to the Homecoming luncheon be absorbed by the Dormitory. Payment to Cliff Johnson for the loss of a hat through inefficient checkroom operation at a student function was brought up. Formal motions will be made in next week's meeting. Will Rogers To Be Honored Students Are Asked To Contribute To Fund for Erection of National Memorial; Collection Boxes in Co-op. "Will Rogers Memorial fund" read the signs on the small bottles covered with blue paper that have been installed recently in the President's office, the student Co-op and in the Training school. Governor C. D. Martin has proclaimed that into these Dottles snail go nickels, dimes and pennies contributed to the Will Rogers' Memorial fund. The bottles will be there until the end of the week but because of the holiday every one is urged to contribute at once. There is no set quota. Whatever money is received will be used for the erection of a permanent memorial to the philosopher and humorist of the stage, screen and radio. The exact form of the memorial has not been decided upon. Officials under the direction of Captain Eddie Rickenbacker will arrange this after Thanksgiving. Tribute Nationwide This movement is nation-wide in scope and was inaugurated on November 4, the "birthday of the late Will Rogers. Officially, it will close on Thanksgiving day. The organization in charge of collection is the National Will Rogers Mem-oial commission. Banks, schools, and newspapers all over the country are cooperating with them. Theaters have a notice in their lobbies and many stores display them. Accident Recalled i Rogers and Wiley Post were killed when their airplane crashed into the bay a few miles south of Point Barrow, Alaska. They were on a pleasure trip to Siberia when the -accident occurred. Will Rogers-was not only the country's foremost humorist but one of the chief .exponents of flying that the country had. He always traveled by air and predicted a great future for air transportation. Tricky Oregon Normal Team Will Make Initial Appearance Before Viking Gridiron Fans Brown Elected as City's New Mayor Binzer Wins as City Comptroller; Dawson Is Attorney Tomorrow the larger per cent of the student body will be partaking of turkey, dressing, cranberry sauce, and all the other delicacies that go to make up a Thanksgiving dinner. Many feel that it is only a day to gorge and sleep, forgetting the true meaning of the day, and how we came to celebrate it. The fact that it is a day set aside for thanksgiving is too often overlooked. I n the midst of our celebration of Thanksgiving, try to remember the primary significance of that day. * * * As a part of tomorrow's celebration, the football team meets Oregon Normal. As many students as can should plan to attend this game, because of the fact that so many will be out of town, unable to be out on the field supporting that team who won the Ellensburg game for Normal. They deserve it. * * * This year Normal has more to be thankful for t h a n any other year since the library was built. The very fact that- the Physical Education building is as good as built right now will add much to the spirit of the day. In the midst of a mouthful of food each and every Normal student will be able to bow his head and give silent thanks for this great dream soon to be a reality. Much heartfelt gratitude will probably find its wordless way to the legislature. And the greatest joy of all is that we will no longer hear "If and when we get the new P. E. building . s . . " Winning by a margin of 648 votes, Judge W. P. Brown was elected mayor of Bellingham at the primary elections held on Saturday, November 23. His only opponent was Burleigh E. Hanning, present mayor of the city. Other candidates who were selected at this election are: city comptroller, Harry Binzer; and city attorney, Hobart Dawson, who will succeed himself. Those who were nominated in this election are: city treasurer, J. E. McGinnis and Fred Dustin; councilman, first ward, R. C.

The play will be given on Friday and Saturday, December 6 and 7; and again on Thursday and Friday, December 12 and 13. A matinee for the Training school will be shown on December 6. Because the play is performed in penthouse style with the audience seated on all four sides, admittance will be limited to 172 persons for each performance. Tickets for the play may be secured in the Co-op next week. Students will be asked to state their preference as to which night they Workshop Play Starts Practice 'Pomeroy's Past* To Be Directed By Swanson; Cast Chosen Last Friday Rehearsals for the Workshop play, "Pomeroy's Past," will begin after the Thanksgiving holiday. Those directing the play expressed their satisfaction over the large turnout and the interest shown at the try-out last Friday afternoon. The cast, chosen after the tryout, assembled last night to organize. The cast of characters is as follows: "Pomeroy", Maynard Ponko; "Armanda", Faith Scheyer; 'Mary", Katheryn Hatch; "Ed", Jack Joly; "Dr. Heminway", John D u r r; "Hilda", Wilda Hawley; "Fransesca", Bertrace Sturdevant; "Edge", Clyde Kendall; and "Flynn", Eugene Olm-stead. The story concerns a young bachelor, Pomeroy Chilton, whose sister Armanda, does not wish him to . , marry. He surprises and shocks his ^ S h : J 0 ^ t t e ^ ™he?Jhl3U°*a.. sister by adopting a child from an orphanage and telling her that he Season Concerts Free to Students Despite the low financial status of student music lovers, they will be admitted to Civic Music productions given throughout the coming season. Normal-ites may get their silk hats, dust off their dress coats, present their student body tickets and join the concert-goers next December 4, when the first program will be offered by the Little Symphony orchestra of New York.

Louisiana Honors Former Normalite According to a letter received by L. A. Kibbe, psychology instructor, Norman Bright will be a special guest at the Sugar Bowl football game in New Orleans on New Year's day. Bright is a former student at the Bellingham State Normal school. On Dec. 28 he will run in competition in New Orleans. While here he was a star.member of the Viking track squad and prominent in other school affairs.

Lest We Forget To keep that schoolgirl complexion and that trim figure you don't have to use Palmolive and turn ten somersaults before breakfast. Just drop the few pennies you would spend on a candy bar into the Will Rogers memorial collection box in the Co-op. While keeping young and beautiful you will also be aiding toward the construction of a beautiful national memorial in honor of the late Will Rogers, one of America's most widely known and best loved citizens/ This ordinary every day man has become the exemplification of ideal Americanism. Through radio and newspaper his dry humor brightened millions of homes and now we are being asked to do our little bit toward the erection of a monument that this man shall not too soon be forgotten. Rapid Reformation As the first notes of soft harmony floated out upon the air a hush fell upon the assembly group, broken only by the hearty applause at the end of the number. Students and faculty looked at each other in dazed amazement—could this be the same squirming mass of humanity which on similar occasions have greeted the entertainer with both inattention and indifference? It may be that there is an epidemic of lockjaw and also a number of cases of total paralysis in school, or perhaps it was the beauty of the music itself which held them, for it is said that music will soothe the savage beast. Certainly no credit whatsoever may be given to the editorial of last week as it is a well-established fact that the editorial was only invented to keep the editor occupied and out from under foot. Although no one would think of admitting it, no doubt we all felt a little sneaking feeling of pride when Mr. Roth complimented us on our fine attention and enthusiasm. Each one felt that he was a small but important part of the whole atmosphere. There will be many more artists worthy of as rousing a encore we gave the Ecclesia choir if we can only deprive our gastronomic desires for a few moments and give a little more of our valuable time to them.

To the Editor of the Northwest Viking. Dear Editor: Can it be: that our rec hours are serving a double purpose; that we are in such a financial condition that we cannot have our floors sanded by union labor; that we do have enough football players to have our floors swept; that someone in this school is trying to give work to all the unemployed shoemakers in our fair city; that the ventilating system in the big gym cannot be controlled; that the students of this school are trying to set a new record in cleaning establishments; that the students are so inured to the Puget Sound fog that they are oblivious to the dust that they breathe at our rec hours? All. of these questions we ask in order that we may bring to light some of the faults of our rec hours which are supposed to be hours of recreation and not hours of enduring the fruits of a poorly kept gymnasium. Because we believe in being progressive we offer the following suggestions for improvement: 1. Have the stag line sweep the floor between dances. 2. Take up a collection to buy wax for the floor. 3. Close or open the windows as the occasion demands. 4. Sweep the sand off of the gym floor and use it to fill in the new athletic field, thereby saving the expense of trucking dirt from Lake Padden. Sincerely hoping that we have not stepped on too many toes but on enough so that we can arouse someone to action on this score we remain. Truly yours, LEONARD CARROLL. . BOB HARTLEY CLYDE RADDER STANLEY ROBINSON. I Am Thankful: 1. That we do not have to look foward to playing Cheney Normal tomorrow. That would put a cramp in the turkey. 2.That we, of Mr. Kibbe's 8 a. m. psych class, can quit shivering for two days from fear that he will surprise us with "Close your books and note books and take out a pencil. This isn't a test. I merely want to give you an idea of what you should have studied before coming to class." Nice people. Oh, well, Don't give up the ship.

Finally her head flew off, rolled a few feet and lay still. "Curses, and many other similar terms," he grated. "Gimme another match." . Muck .

Word has been getting around, in the way words have of circulating, that he likes it so well up in this part of the county that he wants to settle down and make his permanent home here.

TOMORROW Jay-Vees Meet Brown and Cole In League Play Grocery-men Have Two Victories To Credit; Team Composed Of Local Stars Bill Taylor Manager Carver Proteges In First Game With But One Practice With their first league game tonight and with only one practice behind them, the Jay-vee's chances of winning are good, says Coach Sam Carver. Their opponents for the opening game are going to be the Bown and Cole squad. The grocery-men have the advantage of two practice games in which they defeated the Bellingham Furniture Manufacturers and the Ferndale town team by rather lop-sided scores. Their line-up will be composed of former Fairhaven high school stars such as, Muljat, Vincent and Mike Ka-ruza, Beahan, Hazen, and Willie Toby, Babe Johnson, of Whatcom, is also on the squad. The Jay-vees are sponsored by the Men's club of the school and •are under the management of Bill Taylor. They are coached by Sam Carver of the physical education department. Those turning out Friday included the following men: Harry Kluge, Bill Taylor, Cecil Belcher, Don Singer, Pat and Jerry Jacobsen, Oscar Starlund, Joe Ha-ger, Steve Turk and Bill Brashler. Other teams on the schedule include the Palm Garden, J. C. Penney, Paper Mill, Little Wonder Photo, Safeway and the Y. M. C. A. The Palm Garden team is composed of Normal players including Sheldon Stutz, Dick Carver, Leon Alpaugh, Chet Dombroski, and Tony Zambas. Up to the last two years the Normal has entered teams in the local town class A league which have usually came out at or near the top. After the two years of vacation a team has been entered which the school should support. The game Wednesday night is to start at seven-thirty. A small sum is charged for admission. The game is to be held at the Y. M. C. A. Bartons Hall Is Loser of Game Co-op Team Has First Place in Intramural Hoop League Until Beaten Exciting Sports Season Ends Thanksgiving Day Football season, the most glamorous sports season of the year, ends Thursday with the last game, the "big" game of football tradition. The colorful wraps, the delicious odor of hamburgers, popcorn, peanuts, candy and all things that lend a thrill to this exciting game, will still be here, but not the same. At 11 a. m. this last game will be played to help us celebrate Thanksgiving day. These "Southerners" coming up from the Oregon Normal aren't coming up to help us win from them. Our team—muddy, tired, sweating, pushing, will be out their fighting for their school—for victory. And don't you think that as an added encouragement to the football men a turkey with all of the trimmings should be placed between the goal posts for the player who makes the first touchdown? Big, luscious dinners where our fair co-eds and brawny he-men will the game, our school—and our wait-fall to in a manner that is not always good taste but certainly makes things taste good.

Although defeated this one time, Barton's is still in the running for second place. The game was a close battle until the last few minutes when the Co-op made a sudden rally, forging ahead of their opponents to a hard won victory. During the game there were two men fouled out from Bartons, and one man from the Co-op team. The Vikings' team tangled with the W club in a close game with a score of 26-22 in favor of the Vikings. The game was fast and furious with a good deal of foul play on both sides. Tarte, Normal football player who forgot he was playing basketball for the W club instead of football for the varsity, was excused from the floor by the referee before he had any temptation to tackle one of his opponents. Looking It Over Adonises of Gridiron Pose for Photographs "Hold it please!" Twenty-two Viking football players did just that last Friday afternoon at Sandison's studio where they posed in action pictures for the Klipsun. The lettermen who reported for the event were: ends, Holtzheimer, Kvinsland, Smith, and Alpaugh; guards, Popovic, Rice, Whalen, and Ullin; tackles," Tooley, Ames, and Pense; center, Tomco; quarterback, Chorvat, and Miller; halfbacks, Krueger, Dzurick, and Guglomo; and fullbacks, Gall and Tarte. Oven-all, a halfback, and Moran, center, were also in the group although they have not yet made their letter. Winner of Inspirational Trophy Will Get Honor For outstanding sportsmanship, good football, and high grades, another football player will have his name engraved on the Inspirational trophy. Coach Chuck Lappenbusch and Harry Kluge, sports editor of the Northwest Viking, will decide who is to be the recipient of this honor at the end of the football season. The Thanksgiving Day game is the last. Presentation of the trophy will be. made by Kluge during an assembly, after which it will be displayed in the trophy case in the main hall. The trophy was donated by the Viking two years ago. The first to have his name engraved on it was Paul Solkosky in 1933 followed by Art Bagley in 1934. o Last week the Cheney Journal picked an all-star normal team. The players were picked by the Cheney sports editor and, I suppose, the Cheney coach. They unselfishly grave Bellingham three places on the team, Smith, Boggess, and Whalen, and only took five places for themselves. On the basis of the Cheney game they were practically right, except that Ullin should be in the lineup, either at tackle or guard. But since they didnt see the Ellens-burg game they didn't know that several Vikings played the best game of their careers. These fellows, Dzurick. Tarte, Tomco, Guglomo, and Alpaugh looke^ plenty good and, in my estimation, deserve a lot of credit. I guess these late nights are too much for this reporter. I just fell asleep at my desk and look at the all-star team I picked while asleep. It sure is a dream. First of all, I picked GLUE to stick at center. NICKEL, who was changed from quarter, was placed in the guard slot and has paid all season. The other post is held down by WIRE. For the tackles, PAINT will cover one spot with SPARK plugging along in the other position. MOLASSES will run at one end with CARR blocking at the other end. I n the backfield, CRANK will kick, with TIME passing. HONEY is a sweet player and ought to be able to hang on the ball. And if someone hadn't hit me with a typewriter, I'd probably have seen CHILDREN playing, in the back-field. This might he called a truly mythical team. ....The type of ball played by these intramural teams surely deserves better crowds than they have been getting. To all the girls that didn't know, you are perfectly welcome to watch the games, and I have been asked by the W club to implore, yes, even beg some girls to come out, to watch them play. ..Since no admission is charged, it has been suggested to charge and see if they could get a few fans out this way. A word to the wise is sufficient. With the WAA Has the WAA any spirit? Absolutely. If you doubt just watch a couple of the intramural games that's the place where you find sportsmanship galore. There's no scowl when the winning team lets out their triumphant shout, for the theory is applied: "the best man wins". (Yes, we're proud of our organization). The prominent red and green ribbons displayed on the hockey and soccer field are the envy of the training school; however, they're for a purpose ---------- Northwest Viking - 1935 November 27 - Page 4 ---------- WASHINGTON STATE NORMAL SCHOOL, BELLINGHAM, WASHINGTON Women's League Presents: * * * • WE LADIES A bit of this—a bit of that, A friend, a book or two, A social hour—a quiet chat, A cup of tea For two or three— All these, we offer you. * * * Perhaps some of you newer students wonder just what We Ladies are here for anyway, so this week we are going to give you a general idea of what it is all about as well as some hints toward the future. Self-Starter to be revised I n order to keep up with the standard the boys have set in their "Openers", it is planned to revise the "Self-Starter." It will be brought up to date and made more collegiate in spirit. More space will be given to the Social Activities section and more "local color" will be infused into the whole publication. The girls chosen by Beverly Holiday to work with her on the revising committee are: Carol Hughes and Lucille Lee. New Purchases Girls who ctme to the teas will be delightfully surprised to hear t h a t ' we are combing the trade marts for a tea service, which will be available for use very sopn. To those of us who frequent the Women's League room the new books which are to be purchased soon will come as a welcomed means to spend an hour of relaxation. These books will be on subjects interesting to all of us—vocations, general etiquette, college usage, par-limentary rules, etc. They will probably be gracing the table soon, so keep your eyes open. Interesting Assembly There is a rare treat in store for all of us in the second week of December when the Dean of women from the University of British Columbia will talk to us. There will be a luncheon for her afterwards at which all of the League officers, faculty advisors and club representatives will be present —but more of that later. League Bulletin Board And, by the way—have you seen the Women's League Bulletin board: It's really worth your while and we intend to keep it that way. Timely items of interest to the girls in the school will be posted. In this way we hope to keep in touch with what other girls in other colleges throughout the world are doing. Committees of the League We wonder if everyone knows just what is the work of the various committees of our organization. Altogether there are seven committees, as you should know. They are: Fellowship, which takes care of the teas; Standards, that big bad group which looks over the house books and knows everytime you come in at an irregular hour. The Leadership committee is responsible for the Campus sisters, elections and the talent files, which you will be filling out soon. Room Service is that group which does everything in connection with the Women's League room. Of course you know that the Social committee is responsible for the "big nights" of the quarter— the Kid party, the Informal and that .the Program committee takes care of the assemblies. We also have a Press group which does publicity work, posters, and is responsible for the change in the Self-starter. o— Campus Pupils' Annual Festival Presented Here Alumni of Elementary School Are Special Geusts at Pageant Thanksgiving Songs and dances of Thanksgiving were featured this morning when pupils of the Campus Elementary school presented their annual "Festival of Thankfulness" in the auditorium. At the suggestion of Hie seventh grade boys, a new dance was added to the traditional program. It was planned and given entirely by boys. Baskets of food, which were later distributed among the needy, were brought to the platform by two representatives from each class. They were presented to Miss Hazelle Mayo, eighth grade student teacher, who played the part of the Goddess of the Festival. Among the guests of the children for the performance were their parents, members of the Technique classes, and former students of the Campus school. Many of the latter are now attending the Normal school, and they sat in a special section. The dances were supervised by Miss Mildred Jewell, and the songs by Miss Mira Boothe. o 22 Football Photos Taken for Annual Many Students Plan To Visit • Homes, Relatives and Friends During Thanksgiving Holiday Vickery, Morthand, Anderson, Lewis' Krueger, Elmore, Turner, Hickman, Lea Visit Seattle; German, Richardson' New El Nido Members Editor Says Book Well Under Way Staff Is Cooperating "Despite Halloween, Armistice, Thanksgiving, and many other interruptions, the Klipsun is progressing rapidly," stated Helen Hostetter, the editor of the year book. Miss Hostetter and her staff have not revealed the theme of the annual yet. Twenty-two individual football pictures were taken last Friday. The pictures were taken between the infirmary and the grandstand with a woodland scene in the background. Juniors'and seniors have reported to Sandison's for photographs. The remaining pictures will be taken some time in January. The faculty pictures are not yet taken. They are of Miss Mira Boothe, and Miss Paul Potter. Each year the assembly is photographed while in session. This time the assembly featuring the enter tainment of the Ecclesia choir will be used. A notice will be placed on the Klipsun bulletin board opposite the main bulletin board, every Tuesday morning to give instructions to the staff. It is essential that this notice be observed by members of the staff, and that they cooperate with the editor. o Fraternity "Hell Week" Abolished At U. of W. Canned blood for the use of transfusions of blood from one person to another is saving many lives in Russia. The blood is sealed and labeled as to content and type. It is then placed in an electric refrigerator until it is to be used. The blood is taken from people who have just died; therefore an autopsy can be taken, preventing any possibility of disease. o Resulting in the complete abolition of Hell .Week in the 39 frateri-ties at the University of Washington, was the vote taken Monday by .the Interfraternity council. This week, has long been practised as a mental and physical torture initiation to new fraternity members. Lead by Sigma Nu fraternity, the oldest of the organizations in Seattle, the other 38 houses considered the proposition and the vote Monday resulted in only four of he houses in favor of keeping the tradition, "ridiculous", "causing of hard feelings", and "adolescent custom" were a few of the reasons given against the annual affair. The dean of men at the University said: "Hell Week brands us as from ten to twenty j'ears behind the times. Every paddle . should be burned." Many students are planning to go to their homes to spend the coming Thanksgiving vacation. During the last week-end several students and faculty members went to Seattle where they attended Homecoming activities at the University of Washington. * * * Attend Homecoming Helen Acklen and Alvera James attended the University of Washington- Oregon football game in Seattle last Saturday.

Chairmen deserve praise for making this one of the "biggest and best" of Homecomings. Everything moved smoothly and, for some, too swiftly. To all those who were appointed to serve on the various committees, and felt that they were merely a fifth wheel, remember that as gt; every club must have a vice-president* so every affair of importance must have many and large committees. They at least lend prestige and dignity to the undertaking, and sometimes prove to be necessary. Remember Probably the most pleasant surprise was the defeat of Ellensburg on Saturday. The fact that it was the first time since 1925 that Normal had won the Homecoming game almost proved to be the grand climax of the entire Homecoming. Free Can of Paint Gained by Victory "I would like to thank the football team for winning the game last Saturday and helping the Edens hall girls to get a can of paint free", said Agnes Martin, who lives at Edens hall. The manager of the Northwest Hardware bet Miss Martin the price of a can of paint that the Vikings would not win their Homecoming game. Edens hall got then-paint free. Miss Martin would also like to thank Diehl Motor company, Champion and Cornwall streets, for the use of a truck and Auto Rebuild, 401 Grand avenue, for the use of spot lights. "These companies certainly showed cooperation", she said. Work Starting Bellingham Enthusiasts Form Chorus of Nineteen Members Is Conducted by Elton Roth; Begun in 1930 Interest displayed by students in Saturday's luncheon should have been gratifying to the committee in charge. The large dining room of Edens hall was filled with guests who were well entertained by brief after-luncheon speeches and musical numbers. Twenty-seven A true benefit to all lovers of music has been brought about by the organization of the Civil Music association. Through this association many of the world's outstanding artists will be brought to Bellingham, three or more each season. Student activity tickets will admit. Shopping Delegates Discuss Ideas Concerning Dances, Corsages Suggestions on Etiquette Given; Women May Sponsor Tolo Next Quarter To evaluate the many ideas on the subject of corsages and all that they stand for, representatives of Women's League, Edens hall, Man's club and the W club met last week in the Women's League oom for an hour's discussion. Out. of the conflict came the suggestion that the man send a corsage for women's informals but that for men's dances there be no corsages.

The group of 19 singers are on a tour of the United States and Canada, reviving the music of the cathedrals and abbeys of the early centuries and presenting sacred music in symphonic style. I Since its organization in'1930 this choir of select voices has made trans-continental, American-Canadian, and European tours and has received favorable press notices in such cities as Los Angeles, Washington, D. C; Atlanta, Ga.; Salt Lake City. Utah; Philadelphia, and New York City. Though best known for their concerts and personal appearances, the choir has also been heard on radio programs. One of their broadcasts was over KHJ of the Columbia Network on the American Legion Memorial.

H. Fisher last Wednesday. The $200,000 building will be erected with the aid of a $70,000 PWA grant. Henrikson-Alstrom company of Seattle, with a bid of $139,790, was awarded the general construction contract, their bid being the lowest of the seven general contract bids submitted. Other low bids were $148,596, submitted by the Daily Construction company and $150,- 664 by William Peterson, both of Seattle. The highest of the general contract bids was $179,900. Tegenfeldt and Parquharson, of Bellingham, with a bid of $42,699.60 were given the contract for ventilating and plumbing. The contract for electrical work was granted to Ne Page-McKenny company of Seattle, after eleven bids ranging from a high $9,758 to the low $7,195, were offered. "All bids were basic bids, tendered without any alternates," President Fisher announces. Upon the opening of the bids, architects were instructed to draw up contracts in favor of the lowest bidder under each contract classification. o Hoppe to Something different in entertainment! Monday in a special assembly, the Ecclesia Choir of Los Angeles will present a program of acapella music. We hope that the confusion of the assembly will disappear so that the program may be fully enjoyed. After all, it isn't the best plan to send visitors away with the fixed idea that the Normal assembly is one of the most stupid to entertain. Daj's That stag line is absolutely invulnerable. No matter how many complaints reach their ears, no matter how many frowning glances are sent in their direction, they continue with greater force at each succeeding rec hour. It would seem to be a deliberate example of "malice aforethought." Not only dp they crowd the dance floor,- but they completely hide the faculty sponsors from view. If the stags have no consideration for their fellow students, at least might they not think of the faculty guests? Until K.M . „ .. .

Bond of the Speech Pupils Take Part In Passion Play Students Registering For Winter Quarter Football Players Have Intelligence Football players are not always dumb, according to M. F. Cederstrom, of the English department. "How many times have you heard people say that football is all bawn and no brains; that colleges make easy courses for their football squad and perhaps pay t h e i r way through?" "Having a good share of the football men in my classes, I feel sure that they have been maligned", says Mr. Cederstrom, adding that so far as he has noticed the boys are not at all dumb. Our football team, he reminds us, w h i l e showing brains in classes also shows brains on the field—just remember that last game if you , are in doubt.

The men discussed making a formal of their spring dance, that is having men wear tuxedos. Dolly Anderson, and Carol Hughes represented the Women's League; Helen Scott, Edens hall; Mon Or-loff and Bill Taylor, Men's club; Oscar Starlund and Bill Frender, the W club. o Bond Finds Publicity Keeps Him Occupied Although none of them had speaking parts, five Normal students who took part in the Passion Play presented at the American Theater Monday and Tuesday, wore costumes and saw action in the performance. They were: Alfred Loop, a cap Pre-registration for the 1936 winter quarter for students now in school began November 12, according to announcements from Dean James Bever's office.

Not the safest even in dry weather, the board walk between Normal and Edens hall is really dangerous with the heavy frost and ice on it. Those who use it step carefully, tensely, and when they finally reach their destination safely usually sigh in huge relief. Christmas Because of the Thanksgiving vacation next Thursday and Friday the issue of the Viking will appear on Wednesday, November 27. As is the usual custom, the papers will be placed in the main hall near noon, while the staff realizes that all students are thirsting for the items contained in the paper, it has come to the conclusion that surely one paper should satisfy that, thirst. Remember that there are some 660 besides the faculty to receive papers. p Happy New Yearl- Mathematics department. Several weeks ago Dr. Bond attempted to determine what chance there was of the recurrence of a bridge hand dealt in Athens, Ala., in which each of the four players held 13 cards of the same suit. His estimation was t h a t only in 73,- 000,000,000,000,000,000,000 deals would the cards be so divided. This news was published in the Bellingham Herald and sent out to the Associated Press.

It's an old, old story and many intellectuals have thumbed through innumerable pages of Webster in search of some scathing terms adequately insulting to describe these unsocial individuals. Dropping all attempts at pedagogical phraseology tfiey might be called socially ignorant or just plain rude. These annoying individuals spend the first five minutes of the assembly hour picking the speaker or musician to pieces, poking each other and giggling inanely at the way his pants bag at the knees or her toes turn out. After exhausting this highly entertaining pastime they settle back with their heads on the back of their seats or on their neighbor's shoulder and give themselves up wholeheartedly to munching peanut bars, ahuffling their feet, crackling cellophane, dropping Books, and scratching themselves. This activity is o£. course punctuated with muffled sniggerings at their own inimitable wit. And here we have the impression of the Belling- Jj*am Normal student body which the guest entertainer carries away with him.

" * * * Remembering speechlessly we seek the great forgotten language, the lost lane-end into heaven, a stone, a leaf, an unfound door. Where? When? "Oh lost, and by the wind grieved ghost, come back again." The tragic, high-pitched story of the youth of Eugene Garit, the youngest of the children of greedy, self-centered Eliza Gant and her husband Oliver, a big, lank, lecherous fellow, a merchant of tombstones who had longed to chisel delicately something dark and unspeakable in him into cold stone, to carve ah angel's head, but who never learned how. Eugene grew up in a commonplace southern town, in a chaotic household marked by his father's drunken debauches and his mother's constant complaining. He graduates from the State university when nineteen at the head of his class, with the nickname "Hegel" Gant. His father is now old and dying of cancer. His mother is sixty years of age but still strong, wealthy but still active in real estate and greedier than ever. Poor, lost, cynical Ben, who had partially protected him from the corruption of the family, has died. Eugene has become a big, angular fellow, six feet four, very imaginative and passionate. He is a romantic but does not want to reform the world or make it a better place to live in; his whole conviction is that the world is full of enchanted places, if he could only find them. The life around him fetters and annoys him, he wants to escape from it. He feels sure things would be better else- He spends a hectic summer at home, and then prepares to leave for Harvard. An insurmountable barrier exists between him and his parents; all want to surmount it but all know it is too late. Our last glimpse of him catches him standing by the angels of his father's shop on the day of his departure eastward, looking over the town's square, which already seemed far and lost to him. He is like a man who stands upon a hill above the town he has left, yet does not say, "The fog comes on little cat feet. It sits looking over harbor and city On silent haunches, And then moves on." It isn't the fact that the fog greets us on these crisp fall mornings and it certainly isn't because it moves on that we dislike it, but many of us find ourselves very annoyed when it stays all day. Keep Posted Is there a student in this college that hasn't gone down to the scales in front of the nurse's office to Weigh himself? Probably not. That is fine and we hope it was satisfactory and that that extra box of cream caramels didn't add undue poundage. But the point is this: The scales, are in front of a room for the,sick. The people who are in that room should have at least a reasonable amount of quiet. When you come to use the scales, think of them and go about it quietly. It will certainly be appreciated. Inspect your brakes and examine your lights before you begin your 9:03 rush for your 9 o'clock class, down the halls and up the stairs. We have a campus school and pupils are ofttinies in the halls. They don't always understand the emergency and so resent being dashed into and run over because of your burst of speed. We've heard there is such a thing as starting to class with time to spare and have resolved to try it ourselves. And another small matter. Letting swinging doors bang back on people who follow you is definitely an obsolete sport and so is "out" in this polite society. Hold the door open until they are through or grasp it themselves. This leads to our last statement: Girls, always thank the boys for holding doors open for you. One courtesy deserves another. : o—: "The town is near". Rather, he turns his eyes upon the distant soaring ranges. . Muck . For Morons A glance ---------- Northwest Viking - 1935 November 22 - Page 3 ---------- Wildcats Tamed After Great Struggle Viking Blue Wave Trounces Ellensburg 8 to 0 in Gridiron j Homecoming Game Saturday Automatic Safety and Touchdown Make Up Total Score for Norsemen; Tarte and. Krueger Kick Many Long Punts To Break Wildcat Offense. Breaking up a 10-year jinx, Bellingham football squad defeated Ellensburg 8°to 0 in an epic Homecoming game at Battersby field, Saturday, November 16. All the scoring was done in the second-quarter of the game. The first two points were made by Tomco and Alpaugh, who broke through the Ellensburg line to block a punt and send the ball over the end zone for an automatic safety. Later in that quarter the Vikings started a series of pass ing and running plays that ended with Chorvat tossing the ball to Smith for a touchdown. Dzurick failed in the attempt to make the extra point. Viking First Half In the first half the Vikings out-gained the Wildcats in every department of the game. After the Norsemen received the first kick-off they brought the ball 20 yards on three plays. They were finally held and forced to kick. Tarte and Krueger averaged 38 yards on punts to the JEllensburg's 26 yards. This advantage was the one that finally gave Normal its touchdown by putting the Ellensburg team in a bad liole. Ellensburg was stopped cold when trying to make yardage through the Norsemen's line. But when they resorted to passes Holl, Wildcat receiver, was impossible to stop. His six feet six inches of bone and muscle made him impervious to the Viking pass defense. Holl would .stand 5 yards from the line of scrimmage and after catching the pass would lateral the ball to one of his team-mates. Double and triple laterals featured the Nichel-son brand of wide open football. Defensive Game Played Coach Charles Lappenbusch's proteges seemed content to play defensively after their scoring spree in the second quarter. Each time an Ellensburg drive was launched the Vikings would hold and either Tarte or Krueger would send a beautiful punt deep into Wildcast territory to stave off the offensive. If the Ellensburg team started their aerial attack a Bellingham man could be relied upon to intercept. Penalties were responsible for the Viking's inability to make another score. Late in the fourth quarter a pass from Dzurick to Kvinsland put the ball on the Ellensburg 3-yard line. On the next play Gall pounded the line for 2 yards but an offside penalty put the Vikings back 5 yards. Some confusion in substitutions placed the Normal in reverse for 5 more yards and consequently put the Wildcats out of danger. The rest of the fourth quarter featured the Ellensburg passing attack which won for them in other games. Dzurick, Guglomo, and Tomco saved the Vikings from defeat by intercepting Ellensburg passes. Coach Lappenbusch was especially pleased with his men and gave them his blessing after the game. He stated that Boggess, Dzurick, Tomco, and Tarte had played Coast Conference football in their game with Ellensburg. In the words of Cliff Johnson, "The Ellensburg team that lost in that Homecoming game was the same one that held Cheney to a 0 to 0 tie". — o Hockey Balls Arrive; New Equipment Spur To Intramural Games Rules Revised For Basketball Season One dozen pairs of long-delayed shin guards and half-a-dozen hockey balls arrived at the women's P.E. office last Tuesday. Two old chipped balls were at once thrown into the wastebasket. "Girls have less than a month in which to take the newness off the hockey equipment", said Miss Mildred Jewell, coach. "Our first order being lost in the mall caused the delay". ( gt; '. :'v; The remaining intramural: games will be battle^ with i » ^ shin guards protecting legs from the new bails. - New Regulations Will Eliminate Confusion, Roughness Basketball rules have been changed for the 1935-36 basketball season. The new rules are made to prevent the confusion that reigns in the midst of a fast game, according to Coach Carver, as well as to eliminate some of the unnecessary roughness. Some of the most important changes in rules are as follows: Rule 7, Section 10—The definition of a dribble is revised. A fumble or attempt to gain control of the ball is not a dribble; that is, after muffing, or fumbling, or tapping the ball from a group of players, a player may then recover the ball and start a dribble. A player is to be given a reasonable opportunity to gain control of the ball; but if, having had an opportunity to gain control, he makes an obvious attempt to advance the ball, he should be considered a dribbler. Rule 8, Section 6—On jump balls at the free throw line all players except the jumpers must remain outside the free throw circle until the ball is tapped. Rule 13, Section 5—If the free throw resulting from a personal foul is successful, the ball is to be put into play from out of bounds. Rule 14, Section 12—A player may not remain in his free throw area, with or without the ball, for more than three seconds while the ball is in play and in possession of his, team. Rule 15, Section 14—Penalty— This important penalty has been rewarded, but only two changes have been made. In (B) it is provided that when a foul is committed against a player who is hot in the act of throwing a goal, the official may award an extra free throw for unsportsmanlike conduct. This case would apply to an unusually rough foul. (E) It states that officials must disqualify a player for any unsportsmanlike infraction of certain sections. o — Foul Shooting Contest Supervised By Carver Under the supervision of Sam Carver, intramural coach, the annual basketball foul shooting contest began last Monday with approximately 35 boys signed up. This contest, which was started two years ago, allows the contestant 25 foul shots every week for six weeks. The person who makes the highest percentage of successful shots is to have his name inscribed on a cup in the trophy case. The average for the first week is about 14 out of 25, or 56 per cent, which is considered a trifle low. Last year the contest was won by Bud VariderGriend, who had a percentage of 75. This means 150 successful shots out of 200 attempted. o PLAYERS ENTER TEAM Made u pualmost enirely of varsity men, a team sponsored by the Hotel Henry Palm Garden will be entered in the city basketball league, class "A". Players on the team are Dick Carver, Bud Vahder Griend, Shel Stutz, ;Chet pombrqki, and Leon Alpaugh. Moe players will,be signed later. Hot Shots Lose Hard Fast Game Pat Jacobsen Scores High Point; . "W" Glub Wins Game After Trailing at Half "W" Club 26 Hot Shots 23 P. Jacobson, 10....F Dahlstom 5 J. Jacobson, 5 P Hansen, 8 Starlund, 6 C Borroughs, 8 Richardson, 3 G Bristol Shangle G Bryant, 2 Turk, 2 sub Aleaxnder After leading the inspired "W" club quintet at the half by a score of 17 to 12. the hard playing Hot Shots finally lost by a close 26 to 23 score. Pat Jacobson, held to a single foul in the first half, was high scorer, running wild in the final half to score 9 points. Doug Hansen and Homer Borroughs scored 8 points apiece to place them high point men for the Hot Shots. Starlund played a good game at center for the "W" club, scoring 6 points. Edwards Hall, the cellar team of the league, failed to show up for the second game of the day and as a result forfeited it to the Northwest Vikings. The "fast Co-op team is still leading. Oregon Normal Is Tricky Team Monmouth Team Slated To Play Here Thanksgiving Day In Early Game Labelled as the trickiest team on the Viking schedule, Oregon Normal of Monmouth will play the Vikings in the final game of the season on Thanksgiving day. The game will start at 11:00 in the morning at Battersby field. The Oregon team, coached by J. .A. Cox as reputed to be one of the fastest, shiftiest teams on the coast. The visitor's squad will be made up of veteran footballers, who, through their long experience with each other, have worked up a sparkling aerial attack and have the functions of a lateral down to perfection. Sometimes as many as three laterals are used in one play.

Drive Improvements Now Under Way Normal Drive Is Straightened To Make Room for Building Education Facing Serious Situation By Dora May Conrad V. M. Hardin, in the November issue of the Nation's Schools, flings a challenge at the educational leaders which is both inspiring and pertinent. "Education is facing problems more complex and serious in their nature than those of any other time in the past—problems that-baffle us and confuse us to such an extent that we have at times lost our sense of direction," states Hardin. The financial crisis in education stands first on the list. He attributes it to the educational leaders themselves who have failed to guide the public in re-definition, re-enter-pretation of the functions of education in the light of ever-changing society. Socialization of the individual versus the anti-social doctrine of rugged individualism is very aptly brought out by Mr. Hardin. "Education's New Challenge" is an article in which a student of education might well further his ideas of the theory of our modern type of progressive education. • o Normal drive is to be moved to make room for the new Physical Education building across from Waldo field. George Dack, gardener, says that eventually Normal drive will be straight. The same WPA j ject that is to furnish water to the southside will straighten Normal drive and resurface the new athletic field. About 700 cubic yards of top dirt will be put on the field. This dirt is obtained from Lake Padden free of charge, although the Normal pays for the hauling. o Tea Held The weekly Women's League tea was held in the League room from 2:30 until 3:30 yesterday afternoon. Girls of Ragan hall were hostesses. Peggy Foster had charge of plans for the affair. Margaret Osier had as her guest at Downs hall during the past weekend Nelly Nisca of Aberdeen. Sophie Zambas was the guest of her brother, Tony Zambas, during Homecoming. Richard Dombroski, of Aberdeen, visited his brother Chet Dombroski during the past weekend. Guests Here Katherine McDonald was the guest of May McDonald and Betty Chapman at The Cedars last weekend. Pauline Carskadden, of Oak Harbor, was the guest of Maxine and Pat Wade during the past week-end. * * * * * Recent guests at Edens hall included Margaret Carmichael, Sue Tidland, and Mrs. C. Y. Kline. Miss Carmichael was the guest of Helen McNeil and Miss Tidland was the guest of Mary Frances Morthland. Mrs. Kline, of Blaine, visited Margaret Foote. Gertrude Allen and Priscilla Le- Huqult had as their guests last Saturday, Kenneth Ross and Paul Moshner of Kirkland. * * * * * Former Students Visit Charles Wilson, a former Normal student who now attends the University of Washington, was a weekend visitor in Bellingham. While here he attended Homecoming activities. * * * * * Alumni guests at Edens hall last week-end were Betty Tod, Isabel Hinman, Peggy McKay, Mildred Hendricks, Phyllis Greely, Genevieve Strain, Alcina Allen, Catherine Cronin, and Gwen Shostrom. Rolle Proposes Refreshment Sponsors at Rec Hours; Theft Related Pupils Prepare Annual Festival ^r OfThanksgiving Card tables and lamps will be requisitioned for rec hour as a result of discussion at a no-quorum meeting of the Board of Control, Wednesday.

The commission developed the idea of "Campus Sisters" hoping that new girls would be more easily introduced into school life. Some of the opportunities for the Campus Sisters'to interest the new girls in school activities are the Faculty reception this evening, the all-Normal hike and the Kid Party tomorrow, and social events'in the following weeks. In order that the Women's league may be a centralizing unit of all the women's activities in the school, the following resolution was adopted at the conference: 'Whereas there has been felt a need for bringing the women of the school into closer contact, and whereas until this time there has been no agency for effecting this cooperation with Women's organizations except in the case of the WAA and the YWCA as provided in the Constitution, be it resolved that for this year the following clubs composed of women students, 'the Blue Triangle, Valkyrie, and Alkisiah, shall be invited to send a delegate to sit with the Women's League Commission in a consultative capacity at their regular meetings once a month". Conference to Continue Miss Linda Countryman, Women's league advisor, and Miss Nora Cummins, Inter-club Council adviser, were faculty guests at the Conference. The conference had been called by the new president, Dolly Anderson, to outline the League's work for the year and to get the members acquainted. The commission felt that this first conference was of enough worth to make it an annual fall event. Members of the Women's League Executive commission for the coming year are: President, Dolly Anderson; vice-president, Blanche Pearce; secretary pro-tem, Helen Scott; treasurer, Helen Lewis. Standing committees are: Fellowship, Florence Lund; Standards, Dorothy Peterson; Leadership, Charlene Mautz; Room Service, Helen Monson; Social, Mary Jane Moergeli; Program, Blanche Pearce; Press, Beverly Holiday; WAA Commissioner, Maureen McClellan. • —; o— ' T Club Informal To Be First Social Event ents Prexy GivesWelcome To New Frosh Millikan Expresses Wish That More Would Enter School Opportunities You whb are new students, both transfers from other institutions and freshmen, the Associated Students greet you. We hope that you will enjoy your work here and make the best of the many opportunities open to you in the line of student activities . . . probably many of you have planned on attending the University or State college, but, due to financial problems, it is impossible for you. This may result in a certain amount of disappointment, but this disappointment should not lead you into an idea that this school is a resting station or school of disappointment. Such an attitude as this can do more toward destroying our spirit than any other factor. Putting the last year in retrospect, would say that many things were accomplished and many more plans are laid out for this year. The success of our activities program depends upon our interest and effort in this direction. This school holds much for you; what you want to make of it depends on you. GORDON MILLIKAN. o Faculty Furnishes Fun, Food, Frolic Informality Is Aim of Reseption; Hicks Desires Attendance "There will be a minimum of formality, a short receiving line, refreshments for body and soul, and a chance for all connected with the school—students, faculty, and office staff—to get acquainted," says Dr. Arthur Hicks, English instructor, in referring to the Faculty reception to be held this evening from 8 until 11 in the Edens Hall Blue room Miss Emma Erickson, education instructor, is general chairman of the reception, assisted by Miss Irene Elliott, second-grade instructor, decorations; Miss Ruth Weythman, P. E. director, receiving line; Miss Ruth Van Pelt, seventh grade, refreshments. E. J. Arntzen, history instructor, has the task of getting the men students to the reception. Miss Florence Johnson, dean of women, and Dolly Anderson, Women's League president, are in charge of the women. . Dr. Hicks wishes to stress the fact that the men are invited and urged to attend the reception as well as the women. Special music will be furnished by the Williams Trio and Donald Bu-shell, of this school's music depart ment. _ o Officers Are Elected By Harborview Hall Girls Girls of Harborview hall elected new officers for the coming year at their first house meeting held last Tuesday evening. Ruth Gordon was elected president and Wil-da Hawley was chosen social secretary. Florence Nieveeh was elected reporter for Harborview. There are sixteen girls now staying at the hall. Fisher Upperclassmetii New Students Prexy Thinks Students Fortunate To Persue Higher Education In These Times If I were a student today, I would make every effort to get as much education and preparation as I possibly could to make myself equal to the demands that the future is going to make upon young men and women. You are extremely fortunate if during these days you .are able to pursue a course in higher education. According to the number of applicants we had for the N.Y.A. jobs many more students would attend a school like ours if they had the funds. Those of you who are among the fortunate ones have a year ahead of you that ought to mean much in your development. From past experiences I know that the faculty and the office staff stand ready to assist every student to use the opportunities that a new school year has to offer. Sincerely yours, C. H. FISHER, President. o Inter-club Council Holds Annual Rally Edens Hall Blue Room Is Scene Of Social Activities The Inter-club Council members held their first meeting of the new school year in room 209 last Wednesday at 4:00 p. m. . . _ „ .' This meeting was called for the purpose of making the final plans for the rally and for the all-club assembly to be held Friday morning. It was suggested that all club officers be elected just once a year; and that the presidents be the representatives to the ICC, instead of electing special representatives. They also discussed the matter of sponsoring luncheons for the assembly speakers. Notices are going to be sent to all clubs who have been dropped from the ICC because of failure to attend two consecutive meetings. These clubs can be re-instated if they apply at the next meeting; but they lose the privilege of attending the nominating convention. Those clubs which have been dropped temporarily are: Thespians, Valkyrie, W. club, Men's club, Social Science, Freshman class and the Junior- Senior class. The purpose of the Inter-Club Council is to arouse enthusiasm throughout the club year. o - - . ..- t:^.-,^Mi0§ shmait Glass Has, La^ Enrollment As Many.Sffi^lJf88*1 Fail To Return TTiis % i | i i i Official Registration Records Are Not Ccra^ie^j; Available Positions Filled as Demand for Wb«3 Greatly Exceeds Necessity for Room and B p a ^ S | While official records of the registration for the faU quarter at Norma) wili not be complete until the close of the second week of school, President C.

In spite of the traditional ballyhoo and belittling of the incoming class, putting them in their places, we are all very glad to see you and are anxious to get acquainted and have you feel you are an important part of our student organization. Whatever your special interest is we know you can find some club or activity to satisfy it. At your disposal are dancing classes, rec hours, mixed recrea-ton, a full athletic program, a beautiful library full af interesting and valuable books. What more could anyone ask? So take off your hats and make yourselves at home. • o Give the Faculty A Hand If the faculty are noble enough to sacrifice themselves on the altar of hospitality and good fellowship should not we make that surpreme sacrifice worthwhile? We know how they enjoy fastening on their starched fronts and putting on their best smiles. It's no small accomplishment to stand for two hours in tight shoes shaking hands with the right, balancing a punch glass in the left hand, and still maintaining a cordial and gracious countenance. But in all seriousness, we, as students, will certainly enjoy and gain more from our work if we really make an effort to 'become personally acquainted with our faculty. They are willing and ready to come half way if we will come the rest. That half way point is the Edens Hall Blue room and the hour of the tryst is eight o'clock this evening. Let's not keep them waiting! Soaks, Chislers Back to School Local Theaters Show Great Variety on Screen This Week Not for sometime have the local theaters had such a complete variety of pictures as, they are showing over the coming week-end.. Practically every type of life from that of the Russian nobility, during the reign of the Czar, to the wild and woolly life of the early west may be witnessed at one of' the local theaters. At the Mount Baker, Hollywood's sensational, and most dramatic actress, Greta Garbo, portrays the part of Anna Karenina in M.G.M.'s super production of the life of the Russian people during the reign of the Czar, "Anna Karenina". Previews have it that Hollywood has never tried to outdo itself in such a lavish manner as it has in this production. One movie book writes, "The settings of the picture alone are worth many times the price of admission". Supporting Miss Garbo are Frederic March, and the talented child actor, Freddie Bartholomew. Transferred from the Mount Baker to the Avalon because of public demand, is the great musical production, "Broadway Melody of 1936," with Eleanor Powell, Jack Benny, Una Merkel and ten other stage and screen stars. Miss Powell's dance routines and Jack Benny's wisecracks are highlights of the show, not mentioning of course the six new song hits that are destined to become very popular in the next few weeks. It opens Friday at the Avalon. Opening Saturday with a double feature, the American theater presents first a thrilling murder mystery with its setting at college. The name of the picture, "College Scandal" and stars, Arlene Judge and Kent Taylor. Cinemaland's sensational little star, Shirley Temple, will charm you with her acting, in "bur Little Girl". This is one of Shirley's recent pictures and she does a grand job of it. In the supporting cast are Joel Mc- Crea and Carol Lombard. Friday opening at the Grand, that grand character actor, Edward Arnold, will play his first role as a star when he portrays the man that books have been written about/ Jim Brady. From the previews of the picture one can see Very well that Arnold outdoes himself in the part. The name of the picture, "Diamond Jim", covers the life of a man who has a .twelve million dollar bank account, and doesn't know quite what to do with It. Registration is vexation, Exams are pretty bad, Rule of T. T. doth bother me, And copy drives me mad. Well here we are, soaks, back to the old grind and do we love it, anyhow almost as much as castor oil. . . . Something certainly ought to be done for the entering frosh. We should recommend a liberal shot of m a t r i c u l a t i o n toxin-antitoxin (shades of H. Ed. 50!) to immunize them against t h e shock of finding so many blanks to fill out. Their poor heads appear to be as empty as the registration cards. . . . We see that Cliff Johnson was beating Harold Fish's time after the play Monday night, and Maxine Mickle was ably squired by Ted Parker. . . . When the profs review English 1 in a single hour for the benefit of vacation-dulled memories we cordially wish that they'd do the same for English 2 and let it go at that . . . The click of pens against inkwells in room 313 reminds us of the time we flunked our penmanship tests because our hands shook so. Excuse pliz, we can't seem to get away from the frosh.

History offers subjects whose fitness is almost inevitable. One of the notable recent works is Francis Hackett's volume "Francis the First." Despite the great mass of material utilized in drafting the book, the author achieves a compression which assumes almost too much at times. A good historical knowledge on the part of the reader is presupposed. The resulting delineation of "the most typical Frenchman" it written in splendid prose leaving a vivid impression of peace and mood. Of virtually the same type is Gina Kaus' study of Catherine the Great of Russia,, "Catherine: the Portrait of an Empress." Of the Adlerian school of psychology, Frau Kaus offers an unusually sympathetic and yet not over-elaborate interpretation of the woman Catherine. It is handled in a dramatically effective style. One feels however, that her material is inadequately documented. v)Turning to a slightly different field—the effort on the part of an individual to find some means of expressing that personality, we find two autobiographies of extreme interest. "A Goodly Heritage" by Mary Ellen Chase is a refreshing picture of t he ordered simplicity of American living in the thirty years following 1880. Miss Chase writes with a graceful' restraint, lightened with a gentle humor. I n a vastly different manner is H. G. Wells' "Experiment in Autobiography." He assures the reader at the outset that his sole motive was to clarify his own mind. It is amazing the degree of objectivity, the candor, which he attains in a volume to be read by the world at Local Cub Reporter Finally Hands Himself After Story Failure A cub reporter strayed put of the fold the other day trying for a shovel—or whatever it is that reporters are supposed to want.

START;' Vikings Triumph in Warm-up Session With UBC Gridders; Entire Squad Used In Game Norsemen Show Plenty Reserve Strength in Backfield; Shift Smooth Lappenbusch Is Pleased Chinese Halfback Delays Game; Is Returned to B.C. Viking hopes flared high for a successful football season when they trounced the University of British Columbia 77 to 0 in the first home game of the season. Coach Charles Lappenbusch's proteges showed much power and reserve strength in downing the Car nadians. The first team back, composed of Dzurick, Whalen, Tarte, and MacKenzie, took the ball over the line for a touchdown in the first 4 plays of the game. Whalen made the touchdown, but Frender failed to convert. There was no stopping the Vikings from then on. The third team performed as well as the first. Lappenbusch used his entire squad of 43 men in the play. The Canadians used 26 men. The first team line functioned well and opened large holes for the Normal backs. Pence, Frender, and TJllin looked especially good. Ul-lin, whose usual position is guard, was moved to tackle in the second half. Popovic, Johnson, Siebar, and Tooley showed themselves worthy of first team merit. Cherval, Ovenal, Nogrodski, and Guglomo made a very formidable reserve backfield. At one point in the game Ovenal returned a punt 68 yards to a touchdown. Hay, Runkle, and Paradis were effective in the UBC backfield. Deptford and Preston, BC tackles, were also strong on stopping Normal's line bucks. The game started 15 minutes late as the result of a 2-hour argument with immigration officials over a Chinese halfback. The half had to return to Vancouver and the Canadians came on without him. LocalyPrep Teams Play*Games Today Whatcom To Play Mount Vernon For No. 1 Position Local prep school football teams open their third week of competition this Friday when they don their fighting togs and dash into the "pigskin'arena" ready to do or die for their "alma Mammie". Over at Fairhaven, after a rather slow start, the practically green squad of Coach Lee Rankin is ironing out 'the kinks in great shape and tonight's game with Burlington Tigers, under the flood lights should show a great improvement in the southsiders' ranks over their previous encounters. Incidentally the Grizzly aggregation has voted not to shave the "down" from their delicate skins until they have come home with the so treasured and proverbial "bacon". On the north side of town, "Swede" Anderson's Redskins are showing plenty of the so-called "stuff" it takes to make real football teams. Up to their usual form the Whatcom boys have won their first two tussles with comparative ease, although their last game with the Anacortes Sea Gulls proved the most nip and tuck battle around here for sometime. This afternoon the Redskins journey to Mount Vernon, where they take on the Bulldogs in a play-off for first place in the local league. Both teams have an abundance of power and should give a good exhibition of football. Keep, your eyes on these prep teams. They play some more good games.

Successful Fall W A A Program Starts Monday Rally Held To Arouse New Girls Enthusiasm Over Various Sport Fields Monday, October 7, is the1 date set by the WAA to open the season for Women's fall sports this quarter. These will be carried on under the supervision of Betty Ewing, Florence Lund, and. Joyce Jansen, president, secretary and treasurer of the club. The rally held Thursday in the gymnasium was for all women students. Its purpose was to arouse the enthusiasm of the new entering girls and some of the old members in the various women's sports and to acquaint them with the types of sports played in the school. Appointments for the management of the various sports have been made as follows: Elsie Jensen, soccer; Maureen McClellan, hockey; Anna Berg, volley ball; Agnes Martin, swiinming; Dorothy Peterson, hiking. "For the benefit of the new girls in school," says Miss Ewing, "the rules concerning turnouts and membership to the WAA should be stated. Anyone may join the club by paying the regular fees, also any girl may turn out for sports. To play in the inter-class finals, however, student must have a C grade average". The girls are working hard to make this season a successful one in women's sports. Plans are being formulated to encourage turnouts in soccer, hockey, volley ball, swimming and hiking. With the WAA By Mildred Larson Looking It Cher By Harry Kluge A rustle, then a scuffle, a clatter, then a bang—the latter is the door by the gym as the feet of the on-rushing soccer and hockey enthusiasts make a dash for the lower end of the football field to start their quarterly "fresh air" sports. The explanation of the rush as the fact that the heroes of the football field also turn out at the same time. Of course, girls, you aren't supposed to be looking their way but maybe a glance now and then will cause no comment from either side, however don't let the boys know, it might make them nervous. Another tempter, all ye 'of the fairer sex—the WAA has just received (and paid for) twelve brand new, spic and span hockey clubs, so if flying mud and stones with a few blackened shins appeal to you—here is the opportunity of a lifetime. I mean the opportunity of being the first twelve out in the field to get your hands on those new red, white, yellow and maybe green clubs. T didn't look that close, it was too hard on my eyes, and by the way, that will be a good excuse for poor playing. for the first two or three turnouts or until enough'school real estate has been deposited on them to calm down their overwhelming colors. But, girls, don't be too hasty in being the first ones in the PE office to get the new clubs—they might be given out last. Volley ball, swimming and hiking offer other opportunities to the maid who does not care for the great open spaces where the cool breeze fans your overheated brow (caused by overexertion) and the sun—if you can find it, shines down upon the upturned faces, peppering the noses with flecks of gold or maybe, well—you guess, over which cold cream, hand lotion and powder is applied in a vain attempt to regain their feminine charm. Anyway, you still have a chance to indulge in your favorite sport, just sign on the dotted line if you can find a sign to sign—well there should be one on the bulletin board in the lower hall.

At last the Norihal R-Own temperance league has procured the well-known speaker the Normal has been waiting for. In last Tuesday's assembly this novel and instructive talker addressed the students. The theme of the oration was "The harmfulness of narcotics and nicotine," and the speaker was none other than the honorable Mr. Al Capone. As he mounted the stage all the students quivered in their seats for no one knew what to expect. And can you imagine the whole assembly sitting with their hands in the air—such it was when Al reached in his pocket for his handkerchief. (I guess he's got a rep—allright! all right). Al Is Guarded Accompanying him on the platform were three R-Own league members so that this noble man should not be harmed. In addressing the students he said, "Since Prohibition has come into effect narcotics are unlawful. This reason alone should keep you from them." (Ah! but he is such a wise man.) With him on his trip was his wife, a former Normalite. She is very proud of Al dear, as she calls him—and wishes that all the girls now at the Normal may some day get such sweet and innocent husbands. (Ain't it grand—this thing called love!) :—o Loving Embrace * o O o * Librarian in Pajamas Greets Reporter It was with firm tread and joyful mien that I ascended the steps of the library, tripped over the doorsill and entered that gay little sanctuary dear to the hearts of so many students—Miss Mable Zoe Wilson's office. That noble guardian of our books rose to her full height of six feet and gathered me into a motherly embrace, murmuring, "Just call me MaybeUe!" She was exquisitely costumed in yellow net pajamas which, against the scarlet of the carpet was just too much for me and I immediately donned my dark glasses. The room in which I found her reflected in every way her magnetic personality. In fact I could scarcely find my way around because of the electrostatic machines and high-powered wires. She proceeded to put me at ease by serving me with a prohibition cocktail consisting of hard cider and prune juice from her own special shaker which she keeps gt; concealed in .the wastebasket. - Of course, by this time we were both feeling good and were singing "For she's a jolly good fellow—Who's a jlly good fellow —Why, MaybeUe Zoe!" .After another hour or two of-this (Continued on Page 46) Marquis Recommends Virginia Dare Tonic Must we go to assembly? No! Our old friend "Charlie" Fisher has announced that all those not desiring to go to assembly will not have to, but may go to a smoker that is to be held in the conference room in the library instead. This change was made necessary because of the smoke that clutters around the ceiling in the auditorium, making it hard for those who sit in the gallery to see. Maybe a ban should be put on those who smoke in assembly but that would be contrary to our rights as Vikings. Carpets - have been put in the aisles in the auditorium so that when the "bread line" gets up and walks out it won't disturb those who are sleeping. News Flashes!

(Continued on Page Two) STUDENTS DEMAND MORE GLASS WORK Teachers Reluctantly Comply with Kiddies' Wishes. Ah, Me! .Ah, Me! What's this I hear! Unemployment at the Normal? Yet it is so! At a very important meeting of the Board of Control, December 2, the matter was taken up seriously (believe it or not). President Colin Campbell in addressing the students said, "Ah, but we were sorely sad to hear of a situation like this existing in these halls of learning. It breaks my heart to see some of pur fellow men standing in the bread lines at Edens hall, the Cafeteria, and Baugh-man's. (BooKoo! It's so sad). Something must be done!" Cites Pathetic Cases "Why, even such important figures as Gym Gillispy, Gordy Nickels, Ed West (East, North, or South —do we care?), Mort Hogley, Art Smith, Rollie Gizburg, and Kurlie Gross were seen standing in the halls trying to get employment so they could earn some grades," he concluded. It was decided by the board that each teacher in the school will be called upon to contribute to a fund, the slogan of which is: MORE WORK FOR THE WORKLESS 'Everyone is conferring, and we hope the existing situation soon will be remedied. Ah Me! Ah Me! Sees All; Knows All This is the nth year of the history of our school. Starting in a big way it warms the cockles of my heart to welcome you students who have flunked out either here or at other institutions of lower learning. Faculty members are glad to destruct such a large number of dumbbells and dumb bunnies in attendance. We do not take a back seat to any institution of higher learning in this state in keeping a lengthy "flunk list." The school has gradually expanded in spite of reduce-oids. We have done all we can to give a liberal education. We believe in broadening the mind;—as well as the figure—the figure on the budget. It is with darndest regret That our fees are increased but we MUST have our faculty. ' /: _ . •'..•„ . I don't want it to be a mystery to you students concerning the present depression and the effect it has on bur slashed budget. What hurts irie most about this thing called depression, is my own salary, and the salaries of my teachers. It matters little that this school is going to thedogs intellectually. What hurts me most, T repeat, is my own reductibn-7- morally, physically and spiritually. I thank you I Normalite THEBCUTH THWEET THONNETTH THOCK THAD THTORY By D.

This goofy battle that we speak of was put on the. program in place of the annual intersec-tional football game between the Vassar College women's eleven and the Podunk Center Icemen's Union, because of the presence of too much aqua on the terra firma. Following is a word by word description of the big race as given by Itch and Scratchit, the Normal school's Gold Dust Twins, over station L O. U. Lake Rough "Hello, my friends of the radio audience; and how are you this great big beautiful day? From here in the broadcasting booth we have a seaguU's-eye view of the vast pa-orama of Waldo Lake. And what a puddle it is! Extending from one side of the football field to the other and from goal post to goal post it makes one of the finest crew racing courses in the universe. Way down the lake on the fifty-yard line is my worthless opponent Scratchit. It is a great day for the race, folks. As a matter of fact, an excellent day for bears. And can we believe our eyes, thar's a bear on Sehome Hill right now. He looks a little anemic, but we've got to remember that these are depression days and we have to take what we can get. This is the first crew race to be held on Lake Waldo. There are many boats entered in the classic. The Faculty scow is stroked by C. H. Fisher; coxswain, Mr. Hoppe; Miss Rich, bow; Mr. Hunt, No. 5; and other athletes of rather doubtful ability. The Scholarship Society raft is held together by Eddie (Continued on Page 63). .

Are you ready? A vital discovery has been made in the vicinity of the nurse's office. While trimming her finger nails—bromidrosis—one evening Miss Kathleen Olvialley, assistant nurse, decided that, if the diptheria germs—impatigo contagiosa—-can be carried from person to person—- care being taken to use plenty of newspapers when wrapping in order to prevent breakage—they must be in a receptive state and therefore the only manner in which they may escape from the throat, other than by way of the mouth—sarcoma carcinoma—is through the pores of the Adams apple—laryngotracheotomy. Following this amazing scientific discovery she called Mr. Dak into consultation and—with the aid of the power mower they experimented upon "Pop" Gwyn with a startling result. True to her suspicions, after shaving his Adams. apple—laryngotracheotomy^—, a dark substance was found visible upon the blade of the mower. The advice of the school authority to you men is to abstain from shaving below the chin, even if it forces you to grow a beard. The Southeast Norseman is more than ready at any time to sponsor a beard contest. : It has been remarked that cleanliness is next to Godliness. If so, why can't we as a school at least pretend to more celestial aspirations by keeping the cuspidor in the main hall cleaned and shined? It would take only a few minutes of each day to scrape and sandpaper the brass and if some public-minded club of the school would appoint a committee to see .that this was taken care of the students would have more reason to stick their chests out. Only five minutes out of every twenty-four hours for this civic undertaking. How about it, you Y. W. C. A. members? In a recent article in the Oskaloosa Gazette it was stated that, of the 444 college presidents existing at this time, only 4 really know what the present depression situation is about. The other 440 read the papers. Faculty Opinion With seemingly every division of this Normal getting slapped on the chin by some over-ambitious student by well-worded and "constructive" student opinions, I feel that It is time that a little advice be handed the students. I feel that I'm not talking through my hat for the simple reason that "I'm hot that kind of a boy." I have gathered my data and statistics from various employees of "this here teacher's institution." George Dak requests that the students walk on the grass and give the sidewalks a rest. By a chemical method of acidosis, it is decreed that our walks cannot last much more than 1,000,000 years,, lt;tnanks be!) and we should give the grass a break. And what could be more picturesque than a lot of well-worn paths among 'the trees and shrubs of the campus. And just think of the sole leather it would £ave if we trod on the terra firma •for a few years. And the teachers are requesting that all studies heave their waste paper out of the windows, instead of using the receptacles provided. "I'm getting doggone tired lt; of Sprinting up and down the stairs, and emptying the waste basket," "••Ma" stated yesterday. All right, Students, let's get right* in and pitch this waste/ paper situation into the public eye. And in response to numerous requests from the Wolves of High street, with a liking for Edens Hall, a lobby with \radios, davenports, books/magazines, and a refreshment stand will be provided for the patfonizers of this popular dorm. Also, chairs plus smoking stands will be provided for these lounge-lizards who -persist in loitering about the bulletin board for; the ; entire -dayv- :,'*;^. •'"•• "We are doing pur best to do away with all morning classes and dispense with enough of the afternoon classes so that each student may get a daily four-hbur afternoon nap," a member of the curricula committee announced yesterday. And for the benefit of the tea-sippers and cookie-crunchers who live hi the Men's Club room, mustache cups will be provided lt;for the former gang and bibs for the latter crowd. And on Friday afternoons root-beer and pickles will be served as an added attraction. I. M. Aroused. Dear Editor: I see by the paper that you are publishing various and sundry opinions, therefore I think the faculty should have a voice in the matter. There are sevral situations existing in this school which have been vexing my worser nature since I began teaching here twenty-five years ago, I am firmly convinced that this younger degeneration is going to the dogs (in fact my dogs hurt already); One thing bothers me terribly. As they don't sell gum in the Co-op I have to hop rides on passing velocipedes and go clean over to Baughman's and that is too far away. ' I'm advocating a fire sale to be held-every Monday Wednesday and Friday, in which bigger and better gum is to be auctioned off "at low prices;' this sale to be held ph; the first landing of the maintstairs.nv; ; ,; .1 have gone jdeeply into, statistics, and I have found that 99 44-100 % pure of:-the- faculty agrees wijh me^ We sincerely hope you/ will treat this matterseriousiy. - / ', ; ; yours Very truly. • '-••'-•••-•• LINER SINKS WITH ALL FEET ON RAIL Blasphemy Is Used by Teachers In Big Turtle Race. After touring the country in conquest of more fame for their alma -mammy, the Notre Dame hoop team from Southbend met a tartar in the.. Normal ..Vikings on Thanksgiving day, November 26, in the year of Our Lord 1931... The final score was 11-7 in honor of the Normal. Notre Dame, with 33 men on their squad, left South Bend last January in the Graf Zepplin but as it was delayed in the Hawaiian. Islands with tire trouble- the Irish were unable to get here for the big game before Thanksgiving day. DELAYED? Most of the boys wanted to get in on the turkey so they chartered a taxi cab from San Francisco. The Ramblers lay claim to fowl play as the result of their first hoop loss in two years. Evidently they claim that Turkey they ate at the banquet given them in their honor in the main reading room of the library was prepared by student teachers, poisoning them mentally so as they couldn't live up to their high standard of play. Starting out like a bang in the first ten minutes of play the Irish rolled a seven, while holding the Norsemen to a nil. But within the next half hour of battle, after shooting crap for five consecutive rolls the blue and white shot an 11 in the last minute of play. , The crowd was in a continuous uproar, exactly one, thousand students and 13 kids from the training school being present. . Sheetiski, , Caredio, and Jasck-wich starred for the Irish, while "Gabby" Peterson, Bud Burke and Jess Sutton starred for the Nor-malites. ••..-.= '-..•.., Much money was wagered on the game and the Irish are now asking for charity. Bellingham is expected to back the homeless waifs by .giv-; ing them the $42,000 milk fund in milk tickets. In honor of his stupendous triumph Coach Sam Carver invited all the men on his victorious squad over to lunch. He, will supply coffee, cream and sugar if the boys are willing to bring their own lunch. Carver also extends greeting to Bond, the boy who blew a winning whistle for the Normalites. —-o — Gordon "Penny" Carter, Tom "Fish" Delaney, Eddie Duyff, Paul "Windy" Guard, Donald "Mucky" Mullas and Edward "Ban" Myers will spend their Thanksgiving vacation at their homes in Friday Harbor. ormai Continued From Page 1 gizzarde) liphe yn this plase wyl resoom i * a Normal atmnsphear.

Following the serving of a meager supper the guests participated in a game of strip poker. The girls' Social Ethics classes attended a "smoker" at the Liberty Hall last night. Sehome is creeping across this vast expanse of H20. It is getting so cold that the boats are having trouble with the icebergs. The Thespians just crashed into one, but Earl Hutchins is going down with' his ship. He and Posey Flowers can be seen shooting craps on the poop deck. The Sol Due is just passing by and three of the boats are being swamped by the waves. Ullin and Weythman are splashing badly in the Faculty boat. The rhythm in the boat is breaking. Sperry affecting, folks, Sperry affecting. And rather than see his float go down in defeat Captain Fisher has leaped from his ferry and is rapidly floating to victory. And, with the band playing "Annie Laurie" and the assembled mob tearing their Empress Eugenies to shreds, "Prexy" floats between the uprights for a touchdown and victory.

NOSE NURTS Due to the fact that so many members of the faculty have been absent from school this week, victims of the recent epidemic of brain fever, there will be no school on Thursday and Friday of this week, November 26 and 27.~ This was the official notice issued from Miss Mead's office late yesterday evening. Jimmy Stoddard returned to school yesterday after a three-weeks' illness, caused by a broken toe nail. Kay Frose has been confined to the isolation hospital for the past few days as the result of a recent accident when Kay's bicycle collided with the 5:30 Great Northern train on the corner of High Street and Railroad Avenue, last Thursday evening. Bessie Taylor and Cathleen Hill have just been released from the Pest House after a month's confinement, due to an extremely serious case of housemaid's knee. Thirteen Normal students were severely injured, and three killed, in an accident Tuesday evening when a kiddie kar, driven by Eddie Diiyff bumped into Bob Cox's bob sled. The unfortunate accident occurred on Sehome Hill late in the evening, when members of the sleighing party were on their homeward ride. As a result of the tragedy Eddie has had his driver's license forfeited for the remainder of the year. Theona Flift and June McLeod will return to school next week.

AFTER ALL-STAR BALL TEAM MAKES GRID HISTORY Ten Thousand Howling Fans See Hair-Raising Spectacle. Taking advantage of a thirty-pound edge in weight which they held over the men of the faculty, the Normal's women pedagogues, playing under the cognomen of the Pansies, scrapped out a 6-0 win over the highly touted Violets. Ten thousand madly cheering fans saw "Beefy Bever" win the fateful toss and elect to receive. The biggest "Sis-boom-bah" ever heard in Bellingham greeted the smart end over end kick,off made by "Kelly" Keeler from her own forty-yard line. Taking the ball on a dead run "Dynamite" Miller attempted some super psychology and hoped to delude the opposition by scudding to the left instead of following the interference but was nailed, in his tracks by "Antelope" Jones on his own thirty-yard line. "Hula Hip" Hoppe, diminutive halfback, then dropped back an attempt to pass to "Soup Strainer" Buckmick. The toss proved to be too high and sailed into the arms of "Killer" Kangley. Nestling the pig skin in her arms she dashed to the Violet 25-yard line before being brought down. ; Preferring to get their touchdown by conservative football the Pansies decided to get their yardage on running plays: • r'Happy"; Erickson plowed through ^Peggy" William's position at right tackle and was brought down' with: great difficulty by "Half Pint" Upshall. lt; When the pile was untangled Up-shaU was unable to get up and it was later found that he had sustained a sprained I. Q. Mable Sparks By The Author ...Jt was the most unreasonable thing to do to ask little Mable to spark at this inopportune time. We can't think of one funny thing to say, really, because we want you to understand that there is not one funny thing about us except maybe the way we comb our hair—and then our feet are sort of odd—of course folks have laughed at our nose and mouth and eyes and then we are sort of short and fat and our legs are bowed, but, as we said before there isnt one funny thing about us. But suppose I had fallen down and broken my arm and couldn't write this—that would'oe been sompin, I guess. " I'm a very serious young lady just prognosticating about life and the facts thereof and if not why not. I've always heard that men shy away from girls who have brains— now, do you suppose—of course I have brains (I didn't ask you how many, Oscar, and please take your seat). But, as I was saying when I was so rudely interrupted—The point, is Mr. Editor, my stuff is really worth printing—Gee, folks thanks for the cabbage—I like cabbage but next time never mind the turnups—I don't care for them. And artichokes—Oh—Oh. By special request we are using this phrase "filthy lucre". Filthy lucre—filthy., lucre—filthy., lucre— filthy lucre. And there was a girl who ran into a policeman. Soon after Steamship Ford had replaced Upshall, the Violets were penalized fifteen yards, for use of profane language, giving the women the ball on the 5-yard line. On the third line plunge, "Bone Crusher" Countryman succeeded in diving over "Eddie" Arntzen for tha touch down but was injured. After a long parley "Husky" Horton was induced to leave the warm shelter of the broadcasting booth long enough to participate in the try-for point. Her kick was blocked. Steamship Ford snared the pansy kick off and raced 90 yards through a broken field before being dragged down from behind by "Speedy" Ul-lin. The shock aroused by his brilliant play was so great that members of both teams were completely prostrated by surprise, and the game was awarded to the Pansies. Line-up Violets— Pes.

She is very athletic and engages in daily tournaments of tiddley-winks and rummy with her crony, Miss "Lil" George. "And-^-Oh, yes", she said, yawning over her cigar, from now on I'm going to urge the students to come into my office anytime they like and listen to the victrola and hold all their dances in the large reading room. I'm determined that they shall enjoy the library." And with this she kicked me out the door and threw me down the stairs in her own coy way. Miss Wilson said they made a great mistake when they adopted the Dewey Decimal System of Classification, for this groups the books in different classes and is worse than a cross-word puzzle to figure out. She says the one volume library will soon take its place. *" BMNGYOi/nj) lt;* AMERICAN Shoe Repair Shop 1312 CORNWALL AVE. FLABBERGASTER, ETC. (Continued from Page One) •terrible.

WASHINGTON Friday, May 24, 1935 Normalite LEARNING • * * * KEYHOLE • * * # PSYCHOSIS • • * * THE SAVANT —By Elmer Lade Sometime before the end of the quarter I am going to muster up what it takes and walk the full Que length of the campus lawn in broad daylight. Oh boy, won't somebody be mad! * * * * * "When I was young I did frequent Doctor and saint and heard great argument About it and about, and ever I came out The same door where in I went." The above inaccurately quoted quatrain from Omar's "Rubyiat" expresses with nice rhythm the gist of a recent discussion in the Viking office; namely, that much of what we learn in school and out is simply great argument about it and about and of little value beyond the fact that it keeps us busy for awhile. Knowledge is a shifting, unstable thing and not to be taken too seriously. * * * * * Last week smart-alecs on the Viking staff attempted to satirize "Keyhole". But "Keyhole" is evidently one of those things that can't be satirized. The efforts of the writers to elaborate it with ultra-gooey phrases and sneering comments were of no avail. Readers saw nothing unusual about the popular gossip column other than that it seemed dumber than ordinary. It was a bitter lesson for the aspiring wits. There are a lot of things in this world that are beyond burlesque. How, for an instance, would a body go about satirizing a political campaign, a popular song of the "Love Thy Neighbor" type, or some newspaper editorials which I would name did not propriety forbid. And, getting down to brass tacks, there are a number of things besides Keyhole right here at the Normal school that are fairly exempt from the danger of being satirized. But again propriety forbids * * * * * What is more exciting to an individual than his first acquaintance with the complex workings of the human brain as explained by the Viennese crowd of psychiatrists? Shudderingly he finds himself to be a phenominal composite of every conceivable couple. The case his tory of Mr. X, wnose abnormality astounded even the callous Dr. Freud, is a trifling example of delayed adolescence when compared with the maladjustments uncovered by the amateur psychologist's merciless self-analysis. For a short period the future is very dark, indeed; but after reading two or three volumes of modern psychology, the despairing patient tends to lose interest in his mental illness. If not; psycho-pathologists are apt to have a genuine case on their hands. * * * * * "The sun also riseth and the sun goeth down". The most popular fellow who ever galloped his horse through a six reel western movie now rides around the ring of a sand-lot circus. Ah me, the mighty will fall!

H. Fisher a letter of thanks this week. The letter follows in part: "It was moved and unanimously carried that a vote of thanks be given you for your devotion to.Jhe cause of social betterment in Bellingham and especially for eight years of leadership of the Community fund, a period, when your quick grasp of essentials, your ability in presiding, your ready support of all types of service to humanity, as well as your generous giving and your willingness to sacrifice your vacation time to solicitation of others, has been often remarked". A copy of the letter has been forwarded to community chests and councils in New York so that national recognition may be given President Fisher for his work.

The tentative program arranged will consist of an opening school song, "White and Blue", directed by Donald Bushell of the Music department, followed by the flag salute and the national anthem. A Memorial address will then be delivered after which the student body will sing another patriotic number, "America, the Beautiful". The speaker for the occasion has not yet been chosen. The selections to be read by Mr. Hoppe are, "Flanders Field" (Mc- Crea); and "I Have a Rendez-Vous with Death" (Seager). As a conclusion "Taps" will be sounded by John Clark and Tom Brown. Do Purified Movies Lose Punch ? Students Are Persuaded To Give Opinions on Newly Instituted Censorship of American Motion Pictures When the protest of the churches recently secured a censorship of American movies, the producers stated that the uncensored, emotionally exciting pictures were what the public wanted. The following opinions seem to contradict that assertion. Studies in Profundity (Leaves from Bill Pierron's journal.) How odd the course of history has been. And what sweeping effects it has had upon the human race! Consider, for an example, how humdrum and uneventful history would have been had not wars, plagues, and men like Nero, Henry VIII, Charles II, and Herbert Hoover occurred to shape and guide human destiny. Midst the stir and turmoil of the chaotic present we are prone to forget how much we owe to our illustrious forbears. We shouldn't do it. * * * * * In all literature there is probably no book • so packed with useful information as the Encyclopedia Brit-tanica. From the first the set is a mine of fact and instructive illustrations. Unquestionably the Encyclopedia Brittanica is a work worthy of everyone's respect! Also, anyone wishing to know the meaning of words of the English language will find a Webster's Dictionary a great help. Ann Matheson; Just as the people make the government they make the movies. Perhaps the producers forget the intelligence rating of the public, but they cannot entirely neglect it, due to the box office. It is the cause and not the: effect that needs censorship, in the creating of a discriminate public. , Cliff Johnson: There is a definite need for censorship if we are to aUow our youth to see all movies. We Americans are visually minded and impessed by what we see. I believe censorship can definitely bring about an improvement for which there is plenty of room. Esther Gius: It seems to me that there are more real masterpieces turned out by the film industry since the advent of this purifying process.- The movies have done a neat job of replacing the one-time popular "road show" and there is no reason why we cannot have good, wholesome pictures. Randy Oberlatz: Although I entirely disapprove of a system of censorship tending to pilot all drama into the channels of reform, I am heartily in favor of a system which would discriminate between worthwhile art and senseless drivel. By Maxine Mickle A recital of unusual interest to Normal faculty and students will be presented by students of Miss Edith R. Strange, head of the Piano department of Normal, on Tuesday evening, May 28, 8:15 p. m. at the Garden Street Methodist church.

I will fight to keep the rest of the world from fighting while I try to eliminate the cause of war. I will know for what, for whom, for why I am fighting at all times, so help me God. I will try-to discover whether it will do me more harm to be killed or to kill somebody else. I will then learn how to kill somebody like a gentleman. BEVERLY HOLIDAY ............. . . . . . . .Staff Artist What! No School Picnic? No! No! By Lucille Lee Good Luck, Vikings! Although the Bellingham team was defeated last week by Cheney, and has placed none too well in their other meets, ten men of the Viking track team will be scrapping tomorrow for tri-normal honors at Ellensburg. * This year the Viking team has not been as well balanced as in the past. They are strong in t he track events, but extremely weak in t h e field department. Yet they put up a good showing against the Savages last week and might pull the surprise of the season by winning tomorrow. It all depends upon how successful Ellensburg's entries in the field events will be in taking some of the points Cheney used to win last week. With any luck at all, the Vikings should be pressing the other schools all the way. • The golf squad should have more trouble when they try for tri-normal honors. Although they have a'better than usual chance to cop team honors, they will be up against tough competition in Shriver of Cheney if they hope to take the singles championship. The tennis team has shown up none too well this year being quite erratic at times. If they are able to play steady games against the tri-normal competitors, they have possibilities of winning honors. May they be successful in their undertakings tomorrow. What? No all-school picnic? No, no all-school picnic. Are you sure there's no all-school picnic? Yes, I'm sure there's no all-school picnic. Well, why isn't there an all-school picnic? Back in the days which our parents like to recall, there were all-school picnics. The problem of transportation was as simple as knocking over a row of top-heavy pins. For in those days, the students were transported to their destination by means of the Marguerite, the Lake Whatcom steamer. The students brought their lunches and the school furnished the trimmings. The story is told that, after everyone else went home. Arntzen would get out his good old coffee pot only to discover that someone had already taken the coffee home. He would then fill the kettle with Lake Whatcom, invite the faculty to join him, and proceed pouring. Rules there were andthe students were urged to heed them. Among these rules, we find such as the following: 1. Forget your studies. 2. Don't fall in lake. 3. Don't put the same frog down anyone's back more than twice. The frog might get tired even if you don't. 4. Wear white duck trousers or a white dress. This furnishes a good excuse for letting someone else do the dirty work. 5. Boys, you've no right to more than 6 girls apiece unless another boy lets you have 5 of his. 6. Don't forget to come home. Thass all, folks. / Have Come Not To Eulogize Caesar, But To Bury Him He's dead. Why did he die? What killed him? Did he have a right to die? Or did h e have a right to live? Life and death dwell peacefully together. We all possess a little of both. We are born and we die. Yet. we're not born to die. Who h a s a better right to live than you? What have we a right to demand of living before we personally find out all there, is to know about dying? Now let the Brisbane fade out and the columnist appear. In Asia China fights Japan, in Cuba they have a revolution, in America Harvard plays Yale— that shows the march of civilization. The World War is the only concrete demonstration we have of the effectiveness of Technocracy, the pleasure of Democratic cooperation, the enthusiasm generated in the pursuit of a n ideal, but i t hardly proved that war is the only "Dutch Cleanser" to cleanup an "Economic Sink".

Naturally this does not mean that the paper is or was perfect, but it is excellent proof that the paper is worthy of the'school. Therefore it seems entirely possible that much of the harsh criticism received in the past was unwarranted. We agree that this criticism kept us on our toes, but we feel sure that some comments were unjustified. The sport page of the Viking has often been a hot-bed of disagreement. The chief cause for criticism was that major sports were sacrificed for minor sports. However, on the scoresheet recently received, that page received the highest score possible for the proper balance between major and minor activities. The editors, furthermore, were complimented for their work. ; -- This would seem to settle the question for the time being, but criticisms are always welcome.

Dope this year gives the Vikings a slight chance for victory, with Ellensburg cutting in on Cheney's total in the weights and vault to strengthen Bellingham's tally. Viking contestants will be forced to double up on events to gather stray points. Don Holder will enter the century along with the high hurdles and both jumps. Arne John-sen will add the 220 along with the century and low hurdles. Bill Taylor will add the 880, and will also run the mile. Johnsen and Holder in Century Last Saturday's performances boosted the Viking stock in the sprints and the high hurdles considerably. Johnsen won the century in good time and will be making a bid for first in the 220 tomorrow. Holder hasn't run the hundred in a meet yet, but can step the distance fast enough to make the going plenty tough for a first place. He spilled the dope by winning the high hurdles easily Saturday, only to be disqualified for knocking over three hurdles. Holder should win tomorrow. Although Walters was suffering from an injury last week, he will make a different story of it this week. Bill Taylor ran a beautiful mile in 4.34 and is doped to win again. If he runs the 880, he should take at least a third in the event. Pelly from Cheney is almost sure to win if not break the record in the two-mile. He only missed it by one second last Saturday. Brinky has the inside lane for a second in the event. Kenoyer and Sargent are favored to place first and second in the 880, and if Taylor runs, he should be good for a white ribbon. Ellensburg Has Discus Man Ellensburg should cut Cheney out of a first in the discus. They have Holl, who will make it tough for Blair and Anderson. Holl is also a high jumper and will give Holder a fight for the blue ribbon. The 440 should be a close race between Moss of Cheney and Honey-cutt of Ellensburg, leaving a third to Anderson of Cheney. Holder will be laying for Bayersdorf who beat Playing in the role of defending champions, the Viking racquet squad journeys over the hump to engage Ellensburg and Cheney for the tri-normal title tomorrow. The task will be left to Shangle, Starlund and Mullen, the first two men combining to form the doubles team. Mullen won the trip by defeating Joly in straight sets and then conquering Orloff after a three set battle. The 1935 squad does not rate as strong as last season's team, but with a few breaks should make a good showing. Shangle and Starlund, on the basis of their doubles victory over Denslow and Hickey last Saturday, look to be favorites in this event. Denslow, the Ellensburg number 1 man, is the favorite to cop the singles title vacated by Houghton, Bellingham star, last season. The big Wildcat grid player showed a powerful overhead smash last week and an equally fine service. Shangle will have to be at his peak tomorrow to get by Denslow but the little number 1 star has a habit of coming through when the odds are against him. Starlund and Mullen may have assignments as the second rate players on the other two squads haven't made any too impressive records. From left to right: Don Holder, Arne Johnson, Don Kenoyer, and Bill Taylor. Not much is known of the Cheney squad except the fact that they have been beaten twice by Gonzaga. They will probably enter Lindquist, Nelson and Miller. The Vikings last Saturday bowed to Ellensburg 4-3 afer a hard battle all the way. Joly, Mullen and the Shangle-Starlund doubles combination were the local players to win their matches. The only match left on the schedule is a contest with the U of W Frosh next Saturday. Cheney Savages Dual Meet By 80-51 Score Take Normal To Enter Inter- College Archery Meet The archery class is to participate in a telegraphic archery meet, sponsored by the archery department of Chico State college. The contest starts May 20 and all score cards must be sent in by May 27. Four women of each school may take part and the winners are chosen by the individual's score. him last Saturday in the broad jump. Conceding a first to Cheney, j pating in the meet Guglomo should take a third in the State Normal school, broad jump and possibly a second in the pole vault. Blair and Anderson of Cheney should have things their own way in the shot, and take most of the points. A first in the javelin should go to Gall of Cheney with McKenzie favored for a second. The low hurdles will probably go to Walters and Anderson of Cheney, but Johnsen has an eye peeled for at least a second after last Satur day's upset. The Vikings may run the relay only in case they have a chance to win the meet. The following schools are partici- Washington Bellingham, San Jose State college, Fresno State college, Humboldt State college, Santa Barbara State college, and San Diego State college. All the other schools are colleges in California. Savages Set Two New Records In Discus Heave and Eight Lap Events Cheney Normal, showing exceptional strength in the field events and setting up two new records, registered an 80 to 51 victory over Coach Sam Carver's Vikings in a dual track and field meet at Waldo field Saturday. Pelley, of Cheney, set a new two-mile record when he negotiated the eight laps in 10 minutes and 10 seconds, while Blair of Cheney hurled the discus 132 feet, 10 inches, for a new record. The Vikings won only four first places; Taylor taking the mile in the fast time of 4:34, Kenoyer and Sargent tying the 880 in 2:07, John-sen the century in 10 flat, and Holder the high jump at 5 feet, 9 inches. Viking Track Team After New Records Johnson, Holder, Taylor Promise Change in Track Time Below are the track and field records in previous tri-normal cinder meets. These marks are the ones that Johnsen, Holder, Brinkman, Taylor, and Kenoyer promise to break in the coming tri-normal.

A large bonfire was kept burning brightly all evening by Edward J. Arntzen and H.. C. Phillipi. A huge dinner climaxed the evening. The committee in charge consisted of Miss Hazel Plymp-ton, chairman; the Misses Marjorie Dawson, Pearl Merri-man ,Janet Matthews, Mr. Arntzen, and Mr. Hunt. Normal Students Assist Rotarians Boys' Conference Convenes Here To Discuss Youth Problems Of World Millikan Takes the Floor* Makes True 'Big Hit' And Mrs. Paul Marshall and Miss Lorene Brown have been recent guests at the Cedars. Mrs. Marshall visited her daughter Ethel Marshall yesterday. Miss Brown was the guest of Marjorie Gardner last week. Miss Brown and Miss Gardner spent the week-end visiting friends in Seattle. * * * * Eleven more students have received placements for next fall, Miss Elizabeth Hopper of the appointment bureau announced. They are: Mrs. Pearl Rhodes, Swan lake Idaho; John Lensrud, Darring; Pat Allan, Naches; Alfred McClukren Pe Ell, Ruth Verd, Eddings; Ona Conner, Samish; Catherine Alexander, Everson; Florence Ford, Silver-dale; Marjorie Campbell, Actic; Cleora Vaughan, Hartford; and June Larson, Avon. The women of the Rotary convention were the guests of the Bellingham Women Rotarians at a musi-cale tea in the Blue room of Edens hall Monday afternoon. Entertainment was furnished by a string trio composed of Arthur Thai, violin; Donald Bushell, cello; and Miss Edith Strange, piano; and by soprano solos by Mrs. Nan Dybdahl Wiik. Daughters of the Rotarians served at the tea. Normal students who served are: Margaret Morse, Marguerite Thompson, and Joan Hoppe. * * * * "Public School Music Teachers", was the subject of a talk given by Nils Boson of the Music department at a meeting of the Puget Sound Educator's club in Seattle, May 18.

There were about 150 students at the party, most of them getting a big "bang" out of it all, at least part of the time, in "one way or 'nother",—believe it or don't. Gordon Millikan, our respected president himself, will vouch for this statement. He got quite a few bangs out of most everything. He will probably learn though. If not, j it's really too bad to think he spent j a whole 15 cents to be so literally, and figuratively "swept" off his feet. Though the floor was rather crowded, there were not as many mishaps, (other than that stated!) as one might expect^-or not expect. _ o- Fisher Directs Campus School Assembly Play "Understood Betsy", a book by Dorothy Canfield, was the story the seventh grade girls dramatized for the campus school assembly which was held this morning. This book is the story of a litte girl who left the big city and went to live in the country. The cast consists of twelve characters, and was under the supervison of Francis Fisher. This was the third play the drama club has given this year Many students were active Monday and Tuesday helping entertain visiting Rotarians who were in Bellingham for their 21st annual conference. Fifty boys, chosen as leaders from high school in the district, assembled Monday afternoon and Tuesday morning in room 209 to discuss present day problems of youth. Monday afternoon a reception and tea were given for a visiting ladies by the Bellingham women of the Rotary in the Edens Hall Blue room. Students assisted with the serving. Several women students helped serve at the banquet held Tuesday afternoon at the Armory. Tuesday evening the chorus, under the direction of Nils Boson, : sang several numbers as a part of j the program at the American the- I ater.

COLLEGE CREDITS GIVEN Enrollment of Twelve Students Required for Operation of Classes Directed by Bureau of Research. Brotherly love is a fine thin donlcha know! And I suppose we—that's a big we, all of us—should have, oh, so much brotherly love for Ellensburg and its Normal school. But, nevertheless, I cant resist telling you what I just heard.^ Gather 'round, close, now, and don't tell a soul. "A normal school," according to a definition promulgated (that's worth two-bits in the offering)^ by one- of the eastern graduates, "is a body of sub-normal students har-rassed to death by a group of abnormal instructors." Call the guards, please, and I'll prove I'm Napoleon. Of course,. now, you mustn't be-leve that. It was told to me by a lawyer, and you know how lawyers are. Oh, my yes. When I got home I counted the fillings in my teeth. They were, all there, but then, the lawyer did all the talking. Anybody out there need some food for thought? I've got an awfully nice pun. Well, not so nice. I n fact, pretty rotten, if you must know it. Hypocrisy is an aw—I mean, a very bad thing. Anyway, I know an author. He told me he had just written a bear story. "B-e-a-r or b-a-r-e?" I asked. "B-e-a-r," he replied. "I wasn't in the nude for the other kind." Woe is me, and alass and a-Iack-a- daye, fore I doe bee a verye poore hande att pickynge wynners.

These will begin October 22, President C. H. Fisher announces. The courses will meet for one and one-half hour sessions each Wednesday night, and will give college credit to those who desire it. Preliminary announcement of the classes lists the following courses and their instructors: Main trends in American civilization, Edward J. Artnzen; modern drama, V. H. Hoppe; the modern novel, Lucy Kangley; the pre-school child, Dr. Harry V. Masters; amateur photography, Herbert C. Ruckmick; representative Americans, Winifred A. Spieseke; character education, Dr. •CO. Upshall. Adoption of the courses marks another step forward In the school's attempt to further adult education, both President Fisher and Dr. Upshall declare. The classes will be directed by the bureau of research. The announcement declares: "The feeling the country over that education should not terminate with school days has led to a growing demand on the part of men and women engaged in the regular occupations of life for opportunities for directed study. Extension work is the answer to this demand. Such a service offers individuals interested in earning credits toward a college degree an opportunity to do so. It also makes it possible for people with cultural- interest, but who do not desire college credit, to enrich their intellectual life. "Realizing the need in Belling-ham for such a community service, the Normal school is offering this winter a limited number of evening courses through its extension department. In so far as it is possible to do so within the scope of the work, an effort has been made -to appeal to a wide spread of interests." The courses listed are all three-credit courses. A fee of $12 is charged for each course, being at the usual rate of $4 for each credit hour of extension work. Students who do not care to receive credit may, if desired, be excused from tests and other work required of students who wish to earn' credits. The classes will meet every Wednesday evening from 7:30,to 9 o'clock for twenty weeks. Registration was scheduled to take place last night and will continue Monday night. Classes will meet for the first time Wednesday night. "No course can be given unless twelve students are registered in it. If twelve or more persons request a course not offered, an effort will be made to provide it," Dr. Upshall says. Faculty Rest Room To Be Scene of Tea An informal tea is being arranged by the faculty social committee to introduce faculty members to their new rest; room. The tea will be fashioned as a "drop in" party for Tuesday afternoon, October 21, from 3:30 to 5 o'clock. The curtains for the room will be hung.and the room will be ready for use by Tuesday. Miss Jones, dean of women, and Miss Plympton of the art department made up the committee appointed to furnish the rest room. CORNELIUS VAN VLIET IN CONCERT TONIGHT AT LOCAL CHURCH Cornelius' Van Vliet, noted 'cello soloist, will appear in concert tonight at the First Presbyterian church, Garden and Maple streets. Mr. Van Vliet, who appears under the auspices of the Women's Music Club and the Normal school, is known and remembered by those who have heard him in previous years. He has been in Bellingham twice before, once in 1924 and again last year, when he appeared at an assembly. He is a former member of the New York Philharmonic orchestra and has made numerous tours as a 'celldist. This is the first of a series of five concerts that are being sponsored jointly by the Women's Music Club and the Normal. Student association tickets admit to the concert. Admission is $1.50 for others. Mr. Van Vliet's accompanist is Miss Edith R. Strange. The next presentation in the group of classical programs will be November 17 when the club offers Bartlett and Robertson in a concert of piano numbers. BOARD IS UNDECIDED ON OANCE PETITION Arden Benthein, Stanley Hoveland, Vernon Vine Refused Permission to Revive Literary Publication. No decision as to the petition for a double rec hour was made by the Board of Control at its meeting Monday afternoon. The matter was left for discussion in assembly this morning. Howard .Wilder was elected four quarter representative, John Rajala, three quarter representative, and Colin Campbell, yell leader, at the student elections last Friday. The board refused permission to Arden Benthein, Stanley Hoveland, and Vernon Vine to publish the "Red Arrow" because the requested publication would not be of the same form as the original "Red Arrow." The budget for the fall quarter was divided into four groups—$2.50 for athletics; $2.00 for assemblies, lectures and entertainments; 90 cents for social life, and 60 cents for the Northwest. Viking from each student activities fee. Not wishing to establish a tradition for future losses about the school, the board refused to pay $5.00, lost by a Normal girl at the mixer. A special meeting was held Tues day morning to hear a report by Gordon Leen concerning the North west Viking and the Homecoming booklet. The board gave permission to the Student Co-op for publication of the student directory. o LEAGUE NAMES BOARD Ruth Sammons Leaps From Plane in Stunting at Salem Ruth Sammons, a well known member of last Spring quarter graduating class, surprised her acquaintances by dropping with a parachute from an airplane. The drop, was made in Salem over a week ago. Miss Sammons took active part in school during her two years as a local student. She was particularly interested in women's athletics, and was president of the W. A. A. The Salem (Ore.) Statesman: Ruth Sammons, 19, dropped off an Eyerly airplane yesterday afternoon and said afterwards she wasn't scared a bit. "I'm not pretending, either," added this young Salem girl who after completing a school teaching course at Bellingham, Wash., this spring, decided that aviation was the life for her. The drop yesterday was Miss Sammons' initial use of a parachute. "I was rather scared when I knew Wednesday I was going to make the drop and I'll admit I was nervous this morning, but I wasn't, scared when I fell into space." On her initial parachute experience, Miss Sammons went out on a wing of an Eyerly biplane after the machine had reached an altitude of 2400 feet. When the pilot gave the signal, she fell backwards from the plane, doubling as she. fell. "It didn't seem as though I was going fast," she said. "I should judge I fell 100 feet before the parachute opened. If it had failed I would have pulled the ring attached to the emergency parachute and this would have opened." It took just one and one-half minutes for the young woman to reach the ground, her sister timing her descent. She struck the ground rather hard and was limping a bit last night from a strained ankle. "I should have fallen face forward if I had been an experienced jumper," she said. Stunt flying is Miss Sammons' objective. She has already had three and one-half hours in the air at the Eyerly school, • and Pilot "Scout" Hazel tine has put her through a number of air maneuvers. Miss Sammons has handled the controls, too, in some flights, although to date she has done no solo work. President Fisher Leaves For Chicago Meet Prexy to Represent Washington at National Y. M.

A system is being devised whereby students and alumni will have access to the paper Saturday. By printing this larger "Wuxtrie" edition the Viking is keeping in step with Homecoming spirit. This is one of the biggest week-end institutions sponsored by the school, during the fall quarter. The campus and surrounding student quarters are to be decorated, and there is to-be a pep rally, bonfire, dance, programs, banquet, return of alumni, and, above all, the big game against Cheney. A number of different groups are working toward the end of a successful program and although they have been handicapped by a late start, are progressing with their work rapidly.

Fisher has made trips back East to serve on national boards and committees of various kinds. He is again leaving us on a journey that will take him as far as Washington, D. C. He will stop at Chicago to attend a series of meetings of the national Y. M. C. A. board. Leaving there he will go on to Washington as a delegate to the committee meeting for Child Health Welfare. We can't help puffing out our chest, and walking about with a pleased look when we realize that the man who guides the destinies of Normal is an educator of National note. A D U L T EDUCATION Education of our adults is needed now as never before, for in this machine, mass-production age, the life of the worker must be enriched or, in many cases, his spirit willdie. We probably can hold the place we now have by schooling children only, but to make real progress we must educate adults.—L. R. Alderman, U. S. Office of Education. Our Extension Department has made preliminary announcement of Adult Education Courses to be offered during the winter here at the school. The classes are scheduled for one night a week so that they will not interfere with office or working hours. A number of times in the past the people of Bellingham and Whatcom county have been asked to back the Normal in some of their undertakings. Today we have the Normal offering something to these same people that will prove very valuable to those of them that take advantage of the opportunity. There are a number of people who have terminated their educations in institutions, solely because of lack of finances. Many of these intend to go on to school as soon they secure the necessary finances. There are others who want such courses merely for their own enlightenment. This can be arranged, and they can take them without credit or examination. The students should help to get a good sized enrollment. They can touch a number of pjaces where the present publicity campaign cannot click. Not a word broke the ensuing silence for half an hour. Then Algy (no less than the Algernon of Normalite) awoke with a crank, starters being too expensive for Algy's modest habits. He started at Cecil or Thethil, as his sweet woman called him) with great interest. Then he rolled Cecil over to stop the snoring, and himself returned to his gurgling and snorting. —Next Day— Marmaduke (another of those Normalite characters) with a free, careless, and heedless gesture, blew the foam off his glass of milk and tossed it down in a single slurp. Only a slight tremor of the spine was evident as the liquor registered bottom. "Lishen, fellash," he began, "lesh get sumpun done 'bout thishere rec hour bush'nesh. Lesh all get t'gether ri' now an' think 'tall ofer. Yeah. 'Ray-y-y-y—" He staggered slightly, gasped slightly, gulped slightly, and paled slightly as the fresh milk did its dastardly work. But he was an old, experienced milk drinker, and he retained enough presence of mind to crawl under the nearest rug before consciousness left him. His comrades were greatly impressed. "Come, my friends," suggested Cecil (his sweet woman thought his name was Thethil), "let us all imbibe a portion t of the same solution." And soon, since they were all old .people who pull the. editorial, strings hands at the business of milk drink-! and slip into, our column a lot of ing, they had all crowled under the i stuff designed to lower it's sparking, they had all crawled under the ling quality and cast a cloud of so- Oh, how many pf them perish, "Learning truths that they shall cherish", For they met professors bearish, And they fail to bluff their way. j For as hard as they've endeavored, They will find that they've been ' "Bever-ed" And "the ties must all be severed" 'Till the final -judgment day.

Normalite: We don't mind sharing our well deserved fame, and -reputation with a struggling contemporary, but we have our private opinions about T W O Y E A R S L A TE In its, last issue our contemporary, the Ellensburg Campus Crier, printed the following statement: "The Washington State Normal School at Ellensburg is the only state institution in Washington which offers training and preparation for kindergarten training." . The Northwest Viking staff wonders if the Crier reporter, as well as the. editorial' staff, is aware of these facts: That it has been over two years since the above statement would hold true; that both Cheney and Bellingham offer kindergarten training; that the State Board of Education has authorized'the other two Normals to give out. certificates at the end of the two year courses in this work; that Bellingham' has even had students coming from other nations to finish courses in kindergarten training; that the students take a regular primary course here and then do their student teaching in the.kindergarten that we house in bur-training school, and that Bellingham's kindergarten training course has a rating equal to, any in the state of Washington. COLOR H A R M O NY The Vikings took one on the nose from the Monmouth Normal school last Friday night in Portland. These Webfooters scored three of their touchdowns in the first half; and but one (a fluke) in the last part. During this last half the Vikings had the ball most of the time and. were Within inches of scoring. During the _ last two quarters the regulation white "ghost" ball was used, while during the first a gilt .painted oval was in vogue. Another feature of the.game, was the unusually large number of Monmouth headgearsi that were alwayjs. being kicked about the field' of play.: : Now. it seems that Larry Wolfe, Monmouth's wily mentor, had his team equipped .with gold tinted pants, jerseys, and headgears, plus the afore mentioned gilt ball. We are: sure that Larry, hated. to deceive the Viking players; i b u t ' h e just*couldn't stand the humility of breaking the color harmony. ..r, '.;,:--":';:--: -.i •:••••'. ..{'•-: /-; ' o~;.','.'••——- ' X'\\}' . ; ^ certain'Oregon newspaper printed a news dispatch containing "the strong .Bellingham Normal, • thatf'held Gonzaga to a.;scoreless tie."

His hair curled up and turned a shade lighter as he inhaled a gasp of the fragrant fumes. But Agly was used to smoking and had been a blond when he started, so there was no noticeable change in his appearance. "Fellows," he said, "I have decided that we must not act hastily in beginning to think about' this change in wreck hour. After all, you know, it is practically proven that the world will last, for several thousand years yet. So why must we drive our already hard-worked intellects to greater speed, thereby seriously over-taxing them? Let us commence serious thought on this subject tomorrow. We must make a decision that will satisfy all." A veritable chorus of applause rose up in response to this appeal. The gathering arose as one and rushed forward to enfold Algy in its arms and congratulate him upon his speech. Algy, exhausted, with emotional beads of sweat standing out on his cheek, smiled in response to the praise of his admirers. He puffed out a cloud of tarry smoke. The meeting was adjourned.

While they were in Portland, a shoe shine parlor war was taking place and shoes could be polished for five cents. Needless to say, the Belling- Jham. boys killed three people in their rush for a chair.

We have not heard a great deal from that member of the Tri-Normal conference yet this year. ; They beat the Idaho Normal 13 to 12. It will be the first game of the conference for this season and Coach Carver is pointing the team for that-game. * * * * Word was received from the El-lensburg squad that they have a team of veterans that have won either two or three football letters each. Mostly three. The Sedro- Woolley boys on our squad are looking torwarC to playing against their old teammate, Neil McKay, who is now the backfield ace for Ellensburg.' It's nice to see these milers and two-milers out training for t he spring meets already. It takes a lot of internal fortitude to stick to training rules and work out on the track for eight months just to run two or three races in meets. Give t h em a hand, fellows. * * * * The announcer from the Oregon Stadium last Friday night sang out, ''Folks, you are now being treated to some of the hardest tackling ever witnessed in this bowl. These Vikings tackle with a vengeance," Now, isn't that something? The author of this column got himself into trouble last week when he mentioned the Night games in the grandstand. Everyone wanted to know how I knew so much about it when I had been here but two, weeks. Lay off, will you? I was just going from whispered'reports. —: ° - ' ROCKNE SERIES STARTS Tomorrow will find the Vikings battling the strong St. Martins aggregation on Waldo field at 2:15 p. m. St. Martins will come up here with an entirely new style of play, called the Notre Dame shift, used by Knute Rockne's charges. This style of play was brought to the coast by James Phelan, head coach of the University of Washington, and has proved very effective. It has been rumored that St. Martins is a.farm for the University of Washington and they go there to make up grades. Recently the St. Martins Rangers defeated the Coast. Guardsmen from Port Townsend, 46 to 0. Whether the Coast Guards were having an off day or the Rangers were playing better than usual is not known, but at any rate things don't look so well for the Vikings, who were barely able to nose out these same Guards 14 to 6. However, Carver's men" may shove the dope bucket to the winds. The Vikings will be greatly handicapped by injuries received in last week's game. Dutch Wilder, fullback, is handicapped-by a back injury.. It was thought that, he was badly hurt, but an examination proved that he is just temporarily on the "old soldiers" squad. •Iver Moe, star end, has what is common to athletes, a "charlie horse" in t he muscles of the thigh. Joe Burich, backfield ace who scored in the Coast Guard game, is suffering from a bad shoulder. Eacrett, also a backfield man, is limping around due to a bad knee. These injuries are bound to slow up the offense. • " St. Martins is. strong in reserves, having about thirty behemoths who will be hard to. stop. They have two squads of equal strength. The Vikings seem to be weak where the Rangers are strong. The Vikings have few reserves who can successfully step into the regulars' shoes, in the advent these injuries keep them on the bench. Although beaten in. last Friday's game, Coach Carver stated that he wasn't disappointed in the team's showing,1 "The team that played a t Portland Friday night against Monmouth Normal looked like a different team than the one that beat the Coast Guards a week ago," he continued. o Though he weighs only 144 pounds, Albie Booth is hailed as Yale's premier football player this fall. Since he made Yale's three touchdowns to defeat Army he has been a great hro at New Haven. Booth is the son of a New Haven workingman, is 21 years old and doesn't use liquor or tobacco. Campbell Selected Viking Yell Leader Although an entering freshman, Colin Campbell, recently elected Yell King, is not without experience in the yell leading field. He graduated from the Kent, Washington, high school in 1930, serving that school during his first two years as yell king. In his junior year he was vice-president of/the student body, and was president during his senior year. He was also a one year letterman in football at Kent: Campbell is looking forward with much enthusiasm to the coming season. "If I can receive.the response and support throughout the year that I did during the Friday t ry outs, there is no reason why the pep in W. S. N. S. can not equal or excell that of any college on the coast and be an encouragement to our team in bringing victory to our Alma Mater." . As assistant.-.-yell-leader Campbell has. appointed Eddie Dife, one of his. opponents in the recent election. Dif e - is a sophomore and a "W" man.

The initiation took the form of a doctor's examination, with each "patient" receiving a prescription to be followed faithfully else the "bacteria" of the paddle squad wage war on the tender systems of the girls.. -To rid themselves of the dreaded "bacteria," the girls were shining shoes, giving tooth brush demonstrations, washing Miss Wey-thain's car, making beds, and carry- .; ing the old members' books to classes Wednesday. A very interesting program that amused all spectators, followed- the exams. Cider and doughnuts fed that hungry spot, with singing of songs to chase away any lonesome feeling that might be left. The president, Sigred Wiberg, welcomed the new members, then introduced the advisors. The Alma Mater closed one of the most successful initiations to be.staged in the history of the organization. The committee heads that worked to put this over were: Initiation, Dorothy Rees; program, Phyllis Bresnan; decoration, Hope Wit-neck; refreshments, Vera Waham. o Williams Will Lead Freshmen This Fall At the Freshman election Wednesday, October 15, Paul Williams was elected president. Ralph Shep herd carried the vice-presidency over Earl Brock and Alton Lindsey. The office of secretary-treasurer will be filled by Bessie Taylor, while Kay Frost ran a. close second.

Many of the new members had a hard time parking on the mossy log. The men were more scientifically inclined as they enjoyed investigating the haunts of the type lice and watching the lice destroy the type. The Viking advertising manager was over zealous and managed to squeeze to death a few of the lice. Upon doing so he was sprayed with the deadly venom of the lice. The initiation was held in the Miller ; Sutherlen press room and refreshments were in order after the initiation. After the refreshments, the work of publishing the paper was resumed. : o Audience Pleased By Russian Choir "An unusual performance," was the comment made by the majority of those who witnessed the performance of the Russian Choir held Monday evening, October 13, at the Normal school. The Choir, which is regarded as one of the best musical organizations ever to have appeared in the United States from foreign lands, made its Bellingham performance under the auspices of the American Association of University Women. The program of the Choir, under the direction of Princess Slaviansky, was not confined to sacred music alone, but was varied by all kinds of ballads, folk songs, and dances. Ivan Bulenoff, the celebrated basso, was one of the most outstanding members of the Choir. He has been with the Russian Choir for thirty years. The Russian Choir was formed at the command of the czar in 1858. To revive old Russian melodies, folk songs, popular ballads, and many Slavic tunes, became the purpose of the organization. Prince Dimitry Agreneva, who was the founder, dedicated his life to the unearthing of many of these wonderful melodies. His daughter, Princess Agreneva Slaviansky, is now conductor of the Choir. Mme. Mave Slaviansky, her daughter, who is-a soprano soloist in the Choir, is being trained to follow the work of her mother. A large Bellingham audience attended the performance, which called forth a great deal of favorable comment and appreciation. FORMER MAYOR FROM - SEATTLE GIVES TALK Mrs. Bertha K. Landes, former mayor of Seattle, spoke in Tuesday's assembly on her trip to Hawaii, where she attended the second Pan- Pacific Women's Congress, which is a. branch of the Pan-Pacific Union. Mrs. Landes stressed the importance of the Hawaiian Islands and declared the people of the Islands, including forty-four different races, are proud of their affiliation with the United States. Mrs. Landes pictured the islands, and especially Honolulu, historically, geographically, socially, and educationally. She declared that contrary to the predictions and beliefs of many, the Hawaiian Islands will not be domi nated by the Japanese by 1933, for the Japanese are rapidly becoming Americanized. o———— Mr. and Mrs. W.

Proceeds of the two performance will be donated to the fund of the Whatcom County Orthopedic association. The play has been produced under the direction of Lewis H. Frazee. The comedy is written around a family of stage people, the so-called "Royal Family", and is of a.light, semi-sophisticated nature, full of amusing situations and unexpected upsets. First produced in New York in the 1928 season, it had a successful year's run before going on the road. . The Cavendish family, around which the play is written, has as its members the grandmother, Fanny Cavendish, a player "of the old school; her sen, Anthony; her daughter, Julia, a premier actress of the day; and her grand-daughter, Gwen. The action of the plot takes place when the younger members of the family rebell against the traditions of the theater that the older people hold in reverence. The cast of "The Royal Family" includes: Delia • Kendrick B. Frazee j 0 gt; Herbert Philippi McDermott Ralf Hennes Herbert Dean Lewis H. Frazee Kitty Dean Mary Muir Gwen Ethel Little Perry Stewart Harold Hawkins Fanny Cavendish-Mary MacDonald Oscar Wolfe Adolph Rank Anthony Cavendish....

Desiring to comply in every detail with the new regime, this column is blossoming out in grand style bearing another original, and this time, copyrighted name. Failing to obtain intended anonymity by bis nan de piuroe, Will Stuart has been brought back into the fold bearing his rightful by-line, and win henceforth be restrained within the bounds or sanity—we hope. * * * * Eight front-page columns have seen the light o' day during the last 13 years of Normal journalism. Starting back in 1924, there was "Inotha Ropes" by Jove, a short column which lasted until "Hard Lines" by Smiling Bob made its appearance the following year. Then, in close chronological succession, came "Anecdotes" by Zac, "Cedar Chips" by Ted, and "The Big Wind" by Poor Duke. Incorporated in 1928 by G. W. Leen there came the "Nor-malite," which, together with its companion column "Normalette," ran through until last quar r. The only other column to break into print was "Campus Chatter" several quarters ago, edited by Johnny and, Margaret Morse. Eighteen writers worked on the "Norraalite" during its existence. Dozens of other brainchildren have graced the inner pages of the paper, but only these have been lucky enough to be on the. front page. The riotous political and journal' istic lack of restraint in the fair city •f Bellingham has again received attention in the columns of Time magarinei^"The" puhBcttyTth«toglC im be frank, is of rather dubious worth. Termed a "\0Q-watt coffee-pot station 70 miles from Seattle" by frolicsome Time writers, the radio station KVOS has successfully completed contesting claims of news plagiarism brought to court by the allegedly pirated A. P. and its Northwest members. Three federal courts heard the case, the last finally throwing it out because of the plaintiffs inability to explain why a non-profit-making concern like the Associated Press could lose more than the $3000 minimum set by law as necessary grounds for such a lawsuit A little over a year ago evidences of political skullduggery apparent m this section of the' country earned for Whatcom county a reputation as the Worst example of shady politics in nation, according to leading magazines {and not this reporter's opinion.) * * * * * Normal has some more unsung heroes prancing along its venerable ballsythis winter. A trio of them, Ed Johnston, Howard Murray, and Joe Dolan. At 3 o'clock one morning last week they were proceeding homeward from a party (get it, Mr. Observer) when they ran across a flourishing blaze, a couple of fire-trucks, and a lot of excitement. The same night several other fires had broken "out, leaving a mere skeleton crew to combat this particular flame. So, believing in the merits of chivalry and the ten commandments, the three Normalites .proceeded to help fight the fire, ending up finally by carrying all the furniture out of the building— every bit of it, leaving only the burning frame behind. a * * * » Johnston and his friends got home at 7:00 a: m., just in time for the former to go to work for the day. A battle-stained overcoat was offered as proof of the deed, but not an honorable mention did they receive for their work—the lot of many a hero. *•-•„» * * * According to Uncle Ezra, the only animal that can be skinned more tlura once is a human.

Harlem Quintet Faces Vikings Here Monday Team Made Up of Former College Stars; Colorful Exhibition Is Expected Harlem steps into the spotlight Monday night at 7:30 o'clock when" the Harlem Globe Trotters, colored professional team from New York, pit their class and experience against the speed of the Bellingham Normal Vikings in the new gym. The Globe Trotters, composed of former college stars, specialize in clever ball handling and dribbling. Reliable sources indicated that In-man Jackson, giant center, has a pair of hands that are mammoth. The fact that he can hold a basketball in each one at the same time was well illustrated by a cut which appeared in a Spokane newspaper. Much like the colored House of David team, another professional traveling outfit, the Trotters are great clowns, they combine playful antics with real ability to leave spectators lying in the aisles wherever they appear. Burney Leavitt, world's champion foul shot artist, may be with the squad. 499 straight free throws is his record. Students are to be admitted free to this contest upon presentation of their student body cards. All outsiders will be charged 35 cents, plus tax. The probable starting lineups: Harlem Normal Watts P Carver Rusan P .Vandergriend Jackson C. Nelson Ford G Phair Frazier G J. Anderson Primary Election Spirited Winter Quarter Cast Announced Hoppe Selects Wilson, Hatch for Lead Roles in 'Much Ado About Nothing' Headed by Don Wilson in the role of womanhater "Benedict", and Katherine Hatch as manhater "Beatrice", the eighteen-member cast of "Much Ado About Nothing" launches Monday into a lengthy rehearsal session which will last until the ! latter part of March. When a writer like Shakespeare ' puts two such haters together, something is bound to happen, and happen it did—but you come see the play and adjudge the results yourself. Besides the two leads, the troupe for this sparkling comedy includes Warren Toms as "Don Pedro", Don Zylstra as "Claudio'Y Don Warner. as "Don John", Herbert Strain as "Leonato", Glen Greseth as "Antonio", Rex Rolle as "Conrade''', Clarence Soukup as "Borachio", Al Potter as "Friar Francis", Maurice Nelson as "Dogberry," Glen Willison as "Verges", Clyde Kles as "Sexton", Paul Grandquis as "First Watch", and Frank Nims as "Second Watch". The three other feminine actors are Winifred Kreiter as "Hero", Wilda Hawley as "Margaret", and Helen Acklen as "Ursula". This Division of Drama production will be under the direction of Victor H. Hoppe, dramatics teacher at Normal. Cigarette Poll Taken To Determine By Lloyd Nelson Tobacco ads in the Viking? Emphatically, no! Yes, certainly! This is the question put, and the answers received. Should the Northwest Viking publish tobacco ads on its pages or should it not? An editorial appeared in the Viking last week opening this question; a question that is of vital interest to students as well as the faculty. This week, as an aftermath of the previously mentioned editorial, President Fisher, and various members of the faculty and the student body were approached and asked their opinion of the advertising problem. Some of those interviewed smoke, while others do not. President Fisher, maintaining his former attitude on advertising tobacco in the school paper, says, "I have always been opposed to tobacco advertisements, and I am still opposed to them. I suppose it makes no difference one way or another regarding the use of tobacco. It simply means that we are taking their money and thus become a party to a commercial business that is carried on for the sake of profit/ regardless of the effect on young people." Mr. Marquis, Dean of Men, took Faculty Members Pass Out Cigars And now turning into a bit : of a Walter Winchell the second (ahem), in announcing the arrival of "blessed events" to none other than those two popular couples, Mr. and Mrs. Moyle Cederstrom and Mr. and Mrs. Charles Lappenbusch. Lappy Jr. came in first with a time of January 9, while Ceder Jr. came second, time: January 1.2. Mr. Cederstrom and Mr. Lappenbusch, proud fathers, and instructor and coach respectively in our fair institution, are.believed out of danger and doing quite well—most fathers do finally recover. Cederstrom and Lappenbusch Jrs. and the beaming mothers are also doing quite well—in fact we're all doing quite well (I hope). And don't forget to pass out more cigars, daddies. Blue Triangle Give i Vodvil January 19 Stan Laurel Featured as a Wild Hunter in "Roughest Africa" a slightly different attitude on the subject. His remark was, "I am glad that so far, the paper has not resorted to tobacco ads hi order to maintain its existence." Answers from the students were n u n t er more approving on the question. Margaret Thon, Klipsun editor, believes that as long as other Normal schools advertise tobaccos that we should be permitted the same privileges. Quoting Fritz Chorvat, "Sure. Why not? It would bring in more money tp make a better paper." "Although I don't approve of smoking, I see no harm in taking tobacco advertisements in the Viking. The students should have a sufficient mind of their own not to be influenced by the ads," was the answer Dr. Hicks gave. Dr. Cederstrom voiced practically the same opinion. Beverly Holiday, a member of the Board of Control, thinks that tobacco ads in the Viking would be permissible as a last source of revenue. Summarizing the situation in a few words, Ed Angel replied, "After all, a newspaper is a business proposition. Why not make our school paper a paying proposition?" Blue Triangle will present their show and vodvil. on Tuesday, January 19, in the Normal auditorium at 7:15 p. m. Admission is 15 cents, plus tax. Proceeds of the show will be used to send delegates to the summer conference of YWCA at Seabeck.^ Program Announced 1 V ^:\^;~~'~^ Final arrangements for the program" have been made, with "Roughest Africa," the silent film featuring Stan Laurel, to be shown promptly at 7:15. This burlesque is the story of two men fired with the ambition to become mighty African big-game One of these men is Stan Laurel. The gentlemen organize a safari and proceed to the heart of the jungle. The show is filled with a hilarious account of the adventures of the two hunters in the African wilds. Immediately following the film, the club will present its vodvil under the direction of Florence Lund. At this time Blue Triangle's African natives, coached by Pat Stoddard, will appear in person. Door prizes will be awarded by Alice Siemons. Surprise Comes At End of Show "The Red Terror," fourth episode of "The Indians Are Coming," will be shown following the vodvil. The film presents the exciting story of whites traveling westward by covered wagon. Following this show, Alice. Siemons will present the "big five-cent surprise." —o Faculty Chats Resumed; Kangley Will Talk Next Mead Warns Students Of Influenza Epidemic Miss Mae Mead, school nurse, has issued a warning to all students who have the slightest colds to remain at home, or if present at school, to report immediately to the nurse's office.

They are all worthy because the nominating convention said so. And the nominating convention is . . . . Since they are thusly qualified, the next thing to do is to find out who possesses more attributes than specified by the qualification standard. The president of the associated students must possess a sense of leadership able to rise to any crisis and pass upon this situation so that the largest number of students will benefit. He must be a fully responsible person, a conscientious worker, and a president able to keenly analyze any important subject. He must have the ability to look forward and map a course of progressive movement. He must be a person who can take office with the knowledge that he can make decisions for himself and not feel indebteded to any group or organization that may have sponsored his election. He must have no affliations with any group with an "axe to grind.' When all these traits are considered and applied to the three candidates for president, your selection for this position can be none other man Don Zylstra. Zylstra has proved himself to be an efficient, capable student, eminently qualified to hold this man's office. ; o ' -- The steps going from the main building to Edens hall were evidently made for either small children or very old men.

It is not listed in books of medical nomenclature, but we would suggest the rather clumsy name, "Wewon'tturnoutforanything-itis. This humble writer has made a determined tour of all social and athletic events and was accordingly slapped in the face by the obvious lack of student cooperation. Gad, but the turnouts for basketball games are poor! I have it from a reliable source (prexy) that the total enrollment at this semi-boistrous institution is close to 700 souls. I would like to se more than, 200 of these same souls gracing the shiny surface of our newly erected temporary bleachers. We get a turnout for our rec hours. Don't tell me it will become necessary to throw a short dance "between-the-halves" in order to bring you out! It is considered by certain cuncultured individuals to be completely childlike to attend a game of any sort and scream your fool head off. Phooey!

Conditions have taken a hopeless turn for the worse at Bashul, a small and insignificant town in the northern part of India. Air forces have arrived and evactuation of all white residents of the. tiny village is quickly taking place. Among the air forces is a cabin plane belonging to the Maharajah of Chan-daore, and it is into this luxurious liner on one of the mornings in the height of the excitement that four ____^^_„ passengers embark. Tired completely with the exhaustion and confusion of previous days, Hugh Conway, well liked ex-consular, relaxes in the extravagant comfort of the plane and indulges in a well deserved sleep. His rest is brief, however, as his companions have suddenly become alarmed and excited about the unfamiliar course their pilot has chosen to return by, and awake Conway to discuss the matter. Certain the pilot has either lost his way or has made a mistake in his chart, the passenger group propose to question their pilot as to the direction in which they are flying. Upon investigation they find themselves imprisoned in this plan as captives of a well construed plot. Up, up through the dangerous, rigid and elevated peaks of the Himalaya mountains their adroit, young Oriental pilot carries them. Escape here, of course, is impossible— Their bewildering voyage finally terminates and they find themselves in the fabulous, fanciful and magnificent lamasery of Shangri-La in Northern Tibet. The story truly becomes interesting at this point because it is here at this Oriental "hide out" that Conway and his comrades are torn between the desire to ---------- Northwest Viking -1937 January 15 - Page 3 ---------- ^lanuary"15^ 1937 : ; m^.

"The children have discovered that much present-day design is based on that used by the ancient Greeks," says Miss Hazel Breakey, art teacher in charge of the training school work.

"Children of this age need some formal work, so we are introducing it here," says Miss Breakey. These techniques will be used later in poster and scrapbook work.

WASHIISIGTON STATE NORMAL SCHOOL; BELLINGHA^ Fridayy Jsumary 15* -1937 Sport SOUKUP, Editor SOUKIE SAYS . . ... If the Pacific-Lutheran game "was any indication of the strength of the Vikings, Lappenbusch's charges, in spite of the fact that they have lost only one game to date, stack up none too well in the Tri-Normal circles. The University of British Columbia handed the Lutherans a licking; El-lensburg whipped the soxs off UBS 46-23; and Cheney also holds a victory over the Lutheran squad. Lappie claims the boys weren't on in the PLC game so these comparisons probably don't mean a thing, as might be proven by the Vikings' double victory over the Seattle college squad, who also have put the burn on the Farklanders. _While talking of comparisons, an interesting sidelight will be reflected tonight when the University of Washington varsity tangles with the College of Puget Sound Loggers. This is, of course, a "breather" for the Huskies, but the starting lineup will probably contain the frosh team that defeated the Vikings last year. If I were to pick an all-Tri-Normal team right now, Dick Carver and Harold Nelson would be two of my choices. These two young men will have their hands full next week when the Vikings meet the globe-trotting Negroes. If you are interested in good vodvil acts, don't miss this game. Looking Over the Intramnralers It is too early in the season to predict the champs of the intramural league, but let us cast an eye over possible bets. Winston Saunders has another fine outfit in his Viking Manor boys. Saunders will find it tough going, however, with Don Turnbull's band of inglorious Meat Packers looming up as the team to beat. Over in the B league, Dick Hudson's Co-op team seems to be the favorites to repeat their performance of the first half. My own Vikings pulled one out of the bag, however, when they dumped the Co-op in last Tuesday night's game. Guess that makes us the dark horse. Mr. Kibbe, basketball's most ardent fan, traveled thirty miles between the Normal and Whatcom high school to see all the basketball games last year. . . . Mr. Kibbe also holds the distinction of not missing; a major game in the last nineteen years. . . . Have you noticed Harold Nelson's beard in every game? . . . . This man Tommervik, of PLC, has put the finger on the Vikings, both in football and basketball. . . . Some of the trophies in oar not-too-well filled trophy case need bringing up to date; get busy, Mr. Carver. . . . Bellingham high will win the county title but will find it tough going in the district tournament with both Everett and Anacortes sure to be entered We have one of the famous Tesreau brothers in school; it isn't Elmer or Louie, but Jeff, and he. plays golf. . . . Sam Carver is happy over the prospects of getting a good weight man in the form of Ned Van Over, a three-year letterman. With Bill Alexander back in school, the foul shooters will have plenty to worry over, as Bill was last years champ. o Last Half Ball Begins Inauspiciously; Carver, Murphy, Smith Best Scorers Summary: Mon.—Daniels Hall 2-'W Club 0 (Forfeit). Tues.—Buttercups 30-Barton HaH 23. , ,Wed.—Meat Packers 24 - Viking Manor 18. With the first week of the second half nearly over, the score book shows that the Buttercups, Daniels Hall and Meat Packers emerged victors in the fast-playing, rough and tumble "A" league. Monday's scheduled game between Daniels Hall and the "W" club was when the lettermen could muster up forfeited to the Daniels quintet but four men. The game went into the books as a 2-0 win. The mixup the following evening of the Bartons and the Buttercups was a 30-23 victory for the latter. Millard Smith was the shining light for the winners amassing a total of 12 points. Al Munkres followed with 8 and Macrae Smith with 5 markers. The losers' main cogs were Jeff Tesreau and Russ Davis with 8 apiece. Ed Murphy, the forward, sparked the Meat Packers five to a 24-18 victory over Viking Manor in Wednesday's class A game. Ed was "hot" as he turned in a total of 16 points to lead his team and league for individual scoring. Bill Alexander and J. Jacobson were his nesarest rivals, both garnering 6 scores. The coach leads the B league! Intramural Coach Sam Carver, Ed Kamperman, and Sherwood Edwards were the leading point getters in the "B" class of the Intramural league for the past week. The second half's opening game was a forfeit—the same as the "A" league's first game—by the Mare-view Hall team to the Midgets. As the "boys" wanted some action, the Mareview's acquired Coach Carver to play guard for them. After the heat of the battle had died down, the game summary gave him a total of 12 scores—more than enough to win high point honors. But it didn't count. The next battle was a thriller between the Co-ops and the Viking staffers, with "the latter emerging ahead 20-17. Ed Hudson marked up 6 numbers for the winners, while Soukup, Fowler, Reis, Dick Hudson and Richards were pushing in 4 points apiece. A long shot by Fowler in the last minute salted the game away for the writers from the up and coming Co-ops. . Wednesday's play of Edwards Hall and the Frosh uncovered a promising newcomer in the person of Kamperman of the greenies. He made 8 points to help his team swamp the boys from Edwards, 25-8. "Sher" Edwards shot in 5 for the losers. Clearance Sale of YOUNG MEN'S CLOTHING BOCHNAK'S 110 E.

Seattle College Again Defeated Nelson and Carver Star Against Collegians for Third Game In Five Days Again turning back the Seattle College for the second time this season, the Bellingham Vikings easily won their scheduled tilt Wednesday night in the Collegian's' gym, by a score of 39 to 25. Immediately jumping into the lead WSNS coasted throughout the battle with Coach Charles Lappen-busch substituting frequently and using the entire traveling squad in which he found several new clicking combinations. Nelson-Carver Again Nelson and Carver, the main stars of the last three Viking basketball entanglements, again counted heavy in the scoring column; Nelson taking top honors with 15, and Carver counting ten. Taylor, Seattle's dashing guard, scooped up nine. Both teams played better ball in the second half with the Collegians having a slight edge. This was due to the frequent substituting of the visitors. The score at the halftime was 17 to 5 in favor of WSNS. Passing Improves The accurate passing and fast breaking of the Vikings seemed to be much improved over the past games but the defense displayed proved that the Lappenbusch crew could stick as a strictly defensive squad. Spud Reed looked good on the offensive, but needs a better defensive build up. Work of the two Anderson brothers with their exceptionally good defense stood out in the first art of the game, each switching men efficiently on the block and screening.

CPS Bows Before Vikings In Thriller Hitting the comeback trail, the fiery squad from the Western Washington college boiled out a hot win over a CPS crew last Saturday night by a score of 39-31. The heated argument hit the boiling point many times until the dying moments of the battle when WSNS gave the vistors the cold shoulder by freezing the ball. It was a weird tussel to witness as the two squads scored in waves, Vikings waving in the initial half and the Loggers retaliating during the finale. Loggers Lead Taking the jump on the Hilltop-pers, CPS led in the opening minutes only to be overcome by a barrage of shots from Carver and his basketmates. After once getting the lead, the blue and white squad played hard and fast to guard it, nearly losing it midway in the first half. The old plugger, Nelson, star of PLC fling, again copped high honors as he efficiently filled the center berth and rang up a total of 16 points. Tollefson went to town for the Loggers with 11 tallies.

Last Monday the Bellingham Normal Vikings bewildered/200 Lacey fans by putting on the pressure in the last five minutes of play to overcome an 11-point lead; to score 17 points, 10 of which were made by Carver, rampaging forward; and to turn in a 45 to 38 victory from a game that had defeat written all over it. Ranger baskets were as scarce as fan dancers in Sunday school during this siege. Led by Case, veteran forward, who threw in 15 points during the game, the Catholics started to go to town on the opening whistle and at half-time the score read: St. Martins 23, Vikings 17. The situation remained the same the next 15 minutes of play, but along came the combination of Phair, Carver, Hugo Anderson, Nelson, and Reed to the Vikings' rescue, and then the fireworks started. Completely outfighting and outclassing the Rangers, the Norsemen turned on the heat and stepped into the whirlwind finish which left their opponents gasping for breath. The state militia couldn't have stopped the Vikings during this splurge. Dick Carver, with 15 points, continued his amazing spree,, while the much publicized John Anderson finally hit his stride to score 13 points.

Z. Coo Explains Russia-Japan War as Improbable By Eunice Dinsmore At the regular semi-monthly meeting of the International Relations club,-held Wednesday evening, July 17, in the Edens HaU\ Club room, reports were given by Sara Jamieson and Gordon Millikan who were student representatives at an international peace conference held at Reed college, in Portland, Oregon, recently. Both Millikan and Miss Jamieson were deeply impressed by the pessimism shown by speakers at the conference concerning Western civilization. Both gained the idea that the speakers felt that the civilization would be destroyed if another world-wide war were started. Miss Jamieson also reported on the lecture of T. Z. Coo, a noted Chinese. Mr. Coo stated that he did not believe Chinese people would become communistic because of their Buddhist teachings. The Chinese speaker also said that another war between Russia and Japan is improbable, because Russia is working for time to organize her country, and a war would start a counter-revolution within her own borders, and also because Japan is now at the height of her military concentration. Mr. Coo also stated that Japan would not begin a war with the United States because of lack of fuel capacity for her ships. The government of Japan also realizes the value of trade with United-States, because she needs important raw materials she obtains from this country. In his report, Millikan gave a general summary of his impressions of the conference. Following the reports, a round-table discussion was held, at which time questions were brought up as to what functions organizations such as the International Relations clubs could do to obtain and hold world peace. Openers Finished What to do about blind dates? This and many other questions confronting frosh men is answered in "Openers", a guidebook published annually by the. Men's club. The 1935-36 edition is hot off the press, and will be distributed among freshmen at the opening of next fall quarter. It is edited by Julius Dorn-blut Jr. and Victor Dickinson. Beverly Holiday, Viking staff artist last quarter, has designed the cover for the book. Dorothy S. Brosi Accepts Chicago TeachingPosition Potter Will Take Place of Sixth , Grade School Supervisor In September Chuckanut Mountain Trip Last Tuesday Enjoyed by Group "I dont know when I have been on a trip at which everyone had such a delightful time!", was the enthusiastic statement of L. A. Kibbe, regarding the Chuckanut mountain climb made Tuesday. Approximately 25 people made the ascent, a number less than in previous years, but the enthusiasm of those who did go was great, commented Mr. Kibbe. The view from the summit was fine, and most of the group, which left the school shortly after 4:00 o'clock, remained on the mountain until nearly sundown. Dr. C. C. Upshall accompanied Mr. Kibbe as faculty leader for the hike. By President C. H. Fisher Dorothy S. Brosi, teacher of the sixth grade in the training school, has. resigned to accept a position in the elementary schools at the University of Chicago. Miss Brosi has been here only one year, but in this short time, she has made a place for herself and has done splendid work in the training school. We are very sorry to lose her, but she had such a tempting offer professionally at the Chicago institution that she could not afford to turn.it down. Miss Pauline Potter has been chosen to succeed Miss Brosi. Miss Potter has been teaching recently at Teachers' College at Madison, South Dakota, and received her preparation at Teachers' College at Pittsburg, Kansas, the University of Chicago, and the University of Iowa. She has both her bachelor's and master's degrees, and comes to Bellingham well prepared by training and experience. That President C. H. Fisher is recovering and will be able to return to school next Monday is the message from Miss Ethel Church, secretary to the president. He has been ill for the past two weeks, being confined to bed most of the time. .He caught a severe cold, and did not recover his strength very quickly. He was in school for a short time Wedensday. o • Coal Mine Trip Date Is Changed State Inspection of Local Unit Causes Postponement Of Tuesday Hike About sixty students, faculty members and town people left early this morning on the annual Normal school hike to Mt.

Wilson Named In Recent Book On American Women Normal Head Librarian Is One of Six Local People Listed By Author Miss Mabel Zoe Wilson, school librarian, is one of the six local women whose names are to be found in "American Women", a book compiled by Durward Hayes. This book is claimed to be the official "Who's Who" of women of the nation. It lists and gives short biographical sketches of women who have made original contributions to their professions. Other Bellingham women listed are: Mrs. Ella Higginson, Mrs. Prances C. Axtell, Miss Edith B. Carhart, Dr. Maria S. Heinemann, and Evelyn M. Richards.'

Strange accompanied Miss P ^ e r t p n at the piano. The Tuesday evening trip to the coal mines on July 23 has been postponed. Miss Ruth Weythman, women's physical education instructor, has been in communication with mine authorities, {and was informed that state mine inspection and other matters would interfere with a successful trip next week. The trip will not be cut out entirely, however, but will be postponed until some later date. It is considered very interesting, as the Bellingham coal mine .extends far below sea level. : O Registration Completed Enrollment Made at Beginning of Summer Term For the most part, registration for the second summer session was made in the spring or at the beginning of the summer quarter. Some future registration is expected by mail. However, there may be a few changes made, as some classes are top small and may be dropped. Several faculty members may take vacations, necessitating further changes. This is very indefinite. Partially due to President C. H. Fisher's illness, arrangements of classes and sequences ojf subjects have been delayed so that the fall term courses remain indefinite. It is hoped that students will'be able to register before! the first week of the fall term as well as by "We can't fit teachers for every type of situation", said Mary E. Rich, director of" the Campus Elementary school, in discussing the adjustment of the trained, inexperienced teachers to the actual teaching situations. "We must think of it as a state problem and prepare them for supervision". Miss Rich spoke last Wednesday before. the class in elementary school supervision, conducted by L. A. Kibbe. In her talk she answered questions put to her by principals in the class, and explained the philosophy of the Campus Elementary school. According to Miss Rich, this school is keeping step with the best thinking and methods in education, while the typical school in the state is far behind. Therefore, an adjustment is required of the. new teacher in making this transition. By Joan Hoppe Leaving the Citizen's dock at 7:30 with 650 passengers aboard, the S.S. Tacoma glided over the waves toward Vancouver island. At about 10:30 the ship slipped into harbor at Victoria to the wheezy tune of Scotch bagpipes., played by two miniature pipers. With much elbowing, squeezing and pushing, the whole 650 disembarked and found themselves on the streets of Canada's most English city. Until 2 o'clock the crowd was scattered over the city seeking good but still cheap places to lunch, and wandering through the numerous curio and antique shops of Victoria. At 2 the majority of the travelers returned to the Empress hotel where large, open sight-seeing busses were waiting. Soon the busses were rumbling over the rolling wooded hills and up the steep grade to the Dominion observatory. Here the sight-seers heard a short lecture and watched a demonstration of the manipulation of the third largest telescope in the world. Then they were taken to Buch-art's Sunken gardens to wander over the cool paths and velvety lawns for 45 minutes. Returning to the busses, they were transported back to the city, visiting Marine drive, Beacon Hill park, and the residential section. . At 5:45 the busses returned to the Empress hotel and at 6 the tourists again boarded the good ship Tacoma. After a trip, under an al^ most full moon, the weary travelers disembarked once more upon the firm ground of tneir fatherland, and passed the customs.official, confident that they hadn't spent over 100 dollars. Kopelsons Popular With Scribe Much Experience Gained on Concert Stage by Assembly Performers; Dramatics Studied Very Intensively By Victor EL Hoppe Thursday and Friday nights of next week, the Division of Drama presents for the summer quarter play Liliom, internationally famous play from the Hungarian theater. Liliom is one of those masterpieces that occurs once in a lifetime. Ferenc Molnar, the Hungarian dramatist, never before or after reached the brilliant high-water mark of this inspired drama. Telling a simple, human story of a bully and a braggart who was at heart a child, Liliom starts with a supremely natural realism. It combines the romance or side-show life with the simple varieties of home and kindred. Then all of a sudden it launhces into the realm of the metaphysical and suggests in compelling and dramatic situation the mystery of life and its beyond. . No such play has ever been written, with this strange blending of everydayness with wildest fantasy. It is a modern Peer Gynt fable with special implications immeasurably more personal that the great Ibsen romance achieved.

Aloha Genther Staff Artist We Appreciate Kind Words During this year, when the majority of the schools of higher education are under fire, it is especially pleasing to find that not everyone is hard-boiled and critical. A few kind words now and then should be an addition to any man's vocabulary. Therefore it was with appreciation and thanks that we read an editorial appearing in the Bellingham Evening News on Thursday, July 1 1, which gave the Normal school credit for the way it is carrying on during business turmoil. The editorial is reprinted below with the permission of the editor of the News. "CALL OF THE WILD" Enrollment for this summer session at the Bellingham Normal school is the heaviest it has been in many summers. The summer activities program and course of study are among the most interesting and satisfactory the teachers' college has offered. In fact, to quote one in close touch and sympathy with progress at the Bellingham Normal, "things are in first-class shape, moving ahead splendidly, with the outlook for the future rosy." This note of successful progress and optimism rings pleasing upon the ear. It is all the more pleasing because of the flattering effect the lately ended lumber strike has had upon summer business so far, and in view of the prospect that full recovery probably must await the coming of fall. Weeks of enforced idleness in the city's chief industry cannot be repaired in a day, nor even a month, either for workers or administrators. In a sense the Normal school has stepped into the breach and served as something of a business balance wheel. This splendid school is perhaps our chief beneficial. . . i n s spicu F R-liina^am** snerial eminent members of the profession institution heading the list of Bellmgham s special h e d _e v e r a l y e a r s ag() b y t h e assets.

Like other institutions, it has been through _n mv ava t h p r p . some serious stresses of one kind or another during the depression. It has been threatened and hindered from a number of angles, but has carred on, survived and won through to broader usefulness, as this summer's bumper enrollment and program clearly attest. Its future at this time seems brighter than ever before, in a number of ways. Its advancement has been steady in the past and this animating life blood appears to be flowing still with full power and vigor in healthy channels for the time to come. The school is, in its truest essence, and in fact, not prejudice, is allowed to govern our estimates of it, a first-class example of healthy stability before the eyes of all of us. There, on the hill, abides and proceeds, bringing its benefits liberally to those of us who will receive and share them. * Dear Editor: The writer of last week's student opinion seems to think that planned development of Normalstad over a period of years is "nonsensical and premature". With 50 foot lakeshore lots selling from $400 to $600, Normalstad with its extensive frontage on Lake Whatcom is no back alley proposition, is entitled to expert consideration and advice. The mere fact that the chairman of the committee for the improvement of Normalstad is anxious to build a boathouse to protect the boats completed sometime ago from the elements and vandals is sufficient proof that the lack of planning can cause definite material loss. Let any tall man try entering the men's lavatory at Normalstad without bumping his head, and have him decide if there is need for good planning and advice! Despite mermaids and seadragons, highly trained engineers and architects condescend to design boat houses for small rowboats. They do not stop at three, they have designed and are willing %o design houses for one rowboat. Two local architects when questioned indicated that they would gladly draw plans for such an enterprise, would not consider it beneath their dignity even during their present rush season. Country Life, July, 1933, pages 62 63, July, 1933, page 14, contains a number of sKetenes of houses designed for small craft by reputable artists and architects. That architects do not stop at boathouses is indicated by a comprehensive group of pictures of dove cots designed by What thin and tepid blood must flow in the veins of those who think that glamour is gone. Walking in beauty as we are— sun gold or moon silver ever in our eyes, treading on flowers—if all the secret whisperings in the air, the sighing of restless pines and throbbing song of birds cannot raise the rhythm of your heart one beat . . . If your flesh can still be calm beneath the caresses of cool salt breezes and your light fancy cannot climb that sky flung road, the milky way, to the land of your dreams . . . If all these are naught to youthen romance is gone, beauty is a hog ,and love an idle tale—for you. We do forget what loveliness is ours, what treasure lies quick to our hands until . . . All unaware we come to a sudden corner, face the sea and the clouds, a stretch of sky drenched with glory, burning with color, so as one, walking asleep with open eyes, wakens to a cry . . . We waken to a beauty which we saw and did not know. Snow To Heat "Gall of Wild" Due at Local Theatre Thoughts of Student Inebriate "And if you don't believe it; here's my picture taken with Jack Oakie himself!" Souvenirs of the momentous occasion when this celebrated movie company was here are due for an airing when the^much heralded "Call of the Wild" comes Saturday to the Mount Baker theater. Certain people-will gloat with Believers In Superiority Of White Race May 'Suffer Shock Negro's Religion Sincere By Wilson Waylett Those who joyously believe in their own racial superiority may suffer a decided loss of morale if they read in the latest Yale Review Julian Huxley's "Scientific Pitfalls of Racialism".- Huxley demonstrates what a fluid thing a race is. * * * That white chauvinism is a phenomenon not limited to North America is indicated by the article, "Epiphany of Harlem" by Naomi Mitchison, published in the British New Statesman and Nation for June 29, 1935. This particular authoress has a lovely time feeling superior to black religionists, more especially to those followers of Father Divine. I once attended the Father Divine church and think the sincerity, earnestness, and enthusiasm of his converts much- more praiseworthy than the smug, self-satisfied hypocrisy one often sees among respectable white church-goers. * * * One gets another slant on the negro's religion in Langston Hughes' sympathetic story, "Big Meeting", in the July Scribners. Hughes, one of our outstanding negro writers, shows with a fiction obviously based on personal experience the reasons behind extreme religiosity. Of his peo- ,ple the black boy narrator of the story says: . . .D„ .. . . .

Yes, I'm here—but I'm certain that I don't know why. And I'm studying, studying, studying. I heard it was interesting. Fun? Oh, just lots. (They must have meant training school—fun for the tots). * So I sit, and I sit, and just think serious thoughts While I'm studying, studying, studying. I dont know a person; well, not very many, Just one or two hundred—and that's hardly any. There's nothing to do—but I certainly have plenty Of studying, studying, studying. If I were a bird, I would fly far away, But I'm not a bird, and so here I stay. It's hot, and I'm too far away from the bay- So I'm studying, studying, studying.

To my eye there is a melting pot appearance about a group of buildings done in various colors, finished differently (drop siding, imitation log). As I am interested in architectural design, I attended a display of models contributed by architects and students of many countries j while in Los Angeles during December, 1928. My interest in Normalstad is not sudden. Campus day, 1932,1 helped raze the old shack, helped excavate for the foundations of the present student's cabin, helped carry the lumber for the cabin down from the road. Subsequently I interviewed Walter Whitcomb, when he was still a member of the Board of Trustees, as to what he thought of the suggestion that the Associated Students borrow money to develop the tract, build a lodge thereon. Editorials appeared in the Northwest Viking ni the following issues while I was editor: April 3, 1934; May 25, 1934; June 29, 1934; October 19, 1934; November 23, 1934; December 7, 1934; December 14, 1934. These indicate. I am sure, that I was not nearly as disinterested as last week's writer tried so hard to make out.

After playing good ball for the first three quarters, the Vikings weakened, and in the last quarter, while Normal was marking time, the "U" steamed ahead to a win. (The temperature in the intramural gym'was about 90, plenty of heat for steam.) The score at Bill Frender the end of the half was Normal 13, University 12, and at the end of the third quarter, Normal 21, University 22. Frender and Erickson showed the way to the Bellingham boys, and rang up most of the points for the Vikings. "Big Bill" Frender played a good all around game and managed to get his share of the tips at center. Included in the "U" line-up were two ex-Normalites, Johnny Dixon, who played for the Vikings last summer, and "Lefty" Lewis. In the gallery were Coach Lappenbush and several Bellingham grads among whom were Dolphine Anderson, Helen Lewis, Kellie Hammett, Vernon Leatha, and John. Rajala. At the present time the Huskies are one-up on the Vikings. The two schools split their baseball games and horseshoe contests earlier in the summer, Normal taking University into camp in Seattle, and the "U" turning the tables in both sports last week in Bellingham. The Vikings must come out on top in the last sports contest of the current season, a return basketball game to be played in the Fairhaven gym two weeks hence, in order to get an even break for the summer.

Badminton Appeals To Men of School As Well As Girls Archery, Riding, Baseball, Tennis, All Well Represented in Women's Sports By Hazel Winsor The after-school sports have appealed not only to the women of the school but to the men also. Several games of doubles and singles badminton were played last week in the men's gym with defenders of the fairer (or tanner) sex giving the carrot-eaters a run for their money. Miss Gloria Parker took her riding enthusiasts on a supper ride this week out Lake Padden way to the Cedar-Chest. Interest and enjoyment is by no means lacking in thta group. The archers who have turned out so far have been beginners and intermediates and are being capably coached by Theresa O'Malley. There is equipment enough to outfit more who would emulate William Tell. Baseball, tennis, ping-pong, hiking, and volley-ball all have their followers with a show of spirit and enthusiasm. Names on the ladder tournaments are slowly shifting. Perhaps it would be well to add a gentle reminder to the effect that time flies swiftly. Q Best Feature And Story Are Selected Campi and Victoria Trip Picked As Week's Finest Selected by Joan Hoppe, former managing editor of the Northwest Viking, the best stories of last week's paper. The best story selected was that on the Victoria trip, written by Louane Pinckney, managing editor for the summer quarter. Campi Coast to Coast by Margaret Morse, staff correspondent on Orcas island, was selected as the best feature of the week. Miss Hoppe based her selection of the best story on general journalistic principles. The lead told the important items, and summarized the article; the story dwindled in interest; and the least important thing was told last. The headline for the same story was selected as the best for the week. The count in all decks wes even, and the important things of the story were retold in the headline. Campi Coast to Coast, which proved to be the most popular feature of the paper, in a recent survey made in the spring quarter, consists of news notes from other colleges. The selection as the beast feature of the week was made because of the variety of comments in the column, and the interest contained in them.

The onlooker inevitably laughs when, out of honest liking, he sees a group of able-bodied men engaging in some sport that the aforementioned onlooker has never honored with his attention.

Pansy, sissy, and cream-puffs are three of the mildest epithets applied to any men so injudicious or indifferent as to play. At Bellingham, volleyball has been an intramural sport during the fall quarter since the first man settled on an Edens hall davenport. It decidedly is not a new-comer to the campus, or, for that matter, to the country. Yet the notices, posted for the information of the various competing teams, were so defaced with ribald comments that iio one could read them within an hour of meal time; and the gym, at playing time, was packed with those who came to mock and remained to snicker. The purpose of intramural athletics is to provide an outlet of physical activity for those who, because in budget, and with general interest on the part of the student body markedly missing, has an excellent intramural program; owing it, in great part, to the untiring efforts of one man, Sports Director Carver, who works constantly toward the ideal of every man participating in some sport. This ideal is worthy of being realized, and co-operation on the part of the spectators would speed it toward that goal. May I state a rule for guidance when you are watching a new game? Try the game once yourself. If you find that you are not an outstanding star —if you fail in your first attempt, to make the sport page headlines throughout the country—then the game has something to teach you, and, if you are not willing to learn it, at least you should refrain from ridiculing the man who, at the expense of considerable labor, has learned it. * * * All this tirade, which probably sounds silly, was caused by an annoying reference to speedball as a "Hen game"—whatever that may be.

Tests Are Due Thursday and Friday Dated For Examinations Test week—that period of a great deal of studying, a great deal of worrying, or some of both, is at hand. On Thursday and Friday of next week, the final examinations for the first term of summer school will be given. Tests in some courses will be optional with the instructor; in only those courses which will be completed in the six week term are exams required; for those classes which run throughput the entire summer quarter, the instructor may or may not give a test. Grades for all work completed this quarter will be mailed after the conclusion of the summer session. Miss Elizabeth Squire and Merle Kibbe, son of Mr. L. A.

Deposit Insurance To Be Permanent Steps necessary to shift federal deposit insurance from a temporary to permanent basis were taken on Monday by federal banking authorities. Apparently proceeding on the belief the administration banking bill will not become law by July 1, the federal reserve board, the comptroller of the currency and the Deposit Insurance corporation moved to put into effect provisions of the original guaranty act which otherwise will obtain full force on that day. Have you seen the art exhibit? The pictures selected as representing the best art work of the six lower grades of the Campus Elementary school have been framed and are now in display in room 302. Hazel Plympton, art instructor, invites all students who are interested to come up and inspect them at any time. The material used for the frames was purchased locally and cost one-fourth of a cent a linear foot. John Rindal, school carpenter, did the carpentery work. They are painted to match the color schemes of the pictures. The class in Art 50 have completed designs of abstraction of still life. Dorothy S. Mcllvain, head of the Art department, is in charge of this group and several others, including the class in Art 104. This latter group has studied Indian and colonial art and is now working on medieval art. Gothic and Byzantine architecture, illuminations, negro mashes, Chinese ceramics, and Japanese paintings are studied as examples of art work between the twelfth and sixteenth centuries. Illustrations are being drawn from Seigfried, Ivanhoe, and other medieval sources with a view of their application to elementary school art. These displays, together with some lettering, which includes designs with words, and posters will be on exhibit in Miss Mcllvain's studio Monday, July 22. Kulshan cabin, shown above, is the place at which the Mt. Baker hikers will stay tonight. A party of four went in to the cabin yesterday afternoon to prepare for today's party. The hikers will leave the cabin tomorrow morning, and will return late in the afternoon after scaling Mt. Baker. Saturday evening will also be spent at the cabin.

The following were some of the opinions obtained: Laurel Schenck: I enjoyed the different types of architecture found in Victoria. I was particularly impressed by the courtesy shown to strangers by the shop people. Italka Runge: The trip home in the moonlight was the nicest part of the day for me. The view from the upper deck was especially beautiful. Victor Dickinson: The whole day was pretty nice, and in spite of the fact that I got an awful sunburn, I liked the bicycling part the best. Anna Padden: I liked the sightseeing tour best of all, especially the ride through the residential districts and the gardens. Elsie Merry: The bunch of us had a good time all day, but our Studebaker ride was best of all. Betty Hurst: Personally, I wouldn't trade the whole day for anything, but the ride along Marine drive was about the crowning glory of the day. Ralph Shenenberger: Returning from Butchart gardens on a bicycle was the best part. I believe the trip was the most successful one ever made. It is really of value to the city of Belingham that Normal sponsors this annual excursion. Aloha Genther: I liked everything, but the lake at the bottom of the hill where the observatory is situated was the thing I appreciated the most. Louise Vistaunet: Climbing those winding stairs to the dome of the Parliament building was the most fun. I also liked the view that could be seen from the dome. Dwight Smith Tells Of Experiences In China Before Sailing For Scotland To Study At University of Edinburgh "Missionaries in the China field are endeavoring to build up a loyalty to a higher standard and a spirit of sportsmanship that involves a respect for the other contestants and a desire to play the game honestly and as well as possible, not only in sports but in every phase of life," said the Reverend Dwight C. Smith, local Congregational minister in an interview granted just before his sailing to Scotland. Reverend Smith is now at the University of Edinburgh, working for a degree of doctor of divinity. "I was a missionary in China for two years, 1922-1923," he continued, "teaching English in a preparatory school of a college in south central China called "Yale in China". It was not connected organically with the United States Yale but was founded by Yale men, interested in foreign service, who believed that education gave a large field for service in a foreign country." Reverend Smith, in explaining the steps in the founding of this school, told how over thirty years ago the interested group of Yale men went to Hunan province to plan the "Yale in China". They went to Chango, the capital, and talked with the missionaries already there, explaining that they wished to start a college not under any church board and gaining their promise that they would not start another college in the near vicinity. After the school was well started the custom was adopted of sending from the graduating class of Yale several men who would teach for a year or two. Reverend Smith was one of four sent out in 1922. "I was assistant athletic advisor of the football and baseball teams, in addition to my teaching duties," the minister remarked, "and accompanied the boys when they journeyed by train to play their rivals at Boone university, some 200 miles from 'Yale'." When questioned as to the railway accomodations, Reverend Smith replied that the third class cars in Hunan province were about equal to low class cattle cars here. He explained that the travelers took then-blankets with them and were given the choice of sleeping on the floor, benches, or baggage racks. He added that he chose the baggage racks for quite obvious reasons. On one memorable occasion a water buffalo hit the train and knocked it off the track. To illustrate the type of work being done by missionaries in China the Congregational pastor contrasted two track meets held in successive springs. The first year he was there a two-day track meet was planned. The second day, when spectators assembled they were given handbills, published by the team which was farthest behind in the score, which stated that the team had withdrawn because of corrupt PACIFIC COAST'PAPER MILLS tientofhiuB, Wnrirtnfton SEAFOODS YOU LIKE TO EAT at PRICES YOU LIKE TO PAY Bornstein FISH OYSTER CO.

Nationally Known Artist Mr. Tallcott is nationally known, having been for twenty years a teacher, author and director of dramatics. He has held responsible positions in four great institutions of learning—Hiram College, Valparaiso University, Butler University and the Williams School of Expression and Dramatic Art. Mr. Tallcott has his master of arts degree from Syracuse University, which work was done in English literature, and his work for the doctorate is being done in dramatic literature at Cornell University. Director of Societies He has been director of two Little Theater Societies and three prominent dramatic clubs and for four years has conducted classes in play-writing. Mr. Tallcott, without the aid of "make-up" or costumes of any kind, makes his characters live and move before the eyes of his audience. This, he believes to be the highest type of the art of expression. Contralto Will Entertain Louise Bernhardt, mezzo contralto of national recognition, will entertain in assembly Friday, July 8. Miss Bernhardt is an American girl who through her own efforts has men from stenographer fto opera singer. She received all her music and dramatic., education in New York and Bcfeton. Her vocal teacher throughout has been H. Wellington Smith, of New York City; With Opera Company Starting her operatic career at an unusually early age she had, before she was 20, important roles with the American Opera Company and for tw lt; gt; seasons went on the national tours of that organization. The results of the achievement and coliege aptitude tests which were given the first of the quarter will be given out the first of next week according to the research department. Many Old Students About one hundred and fifty students took these tests. Most of these were old students who had not taken the tests before or students from other schools who are here for the summer. These tests will be given again at the beginning of the second five-weeks term. This is for the benefit of those who wish to take a retest or students who enter at that time. - o ' Art Work Exhibit Done During Year By Fifth Graders 800 STUDENTS HERE FOR SUMMER TERM Fifteen States Are Represented Among Members of Student Body / art. -W.S.N.S.- •"'Short work day comijng" says local headline!

Saturday morning at 7 o'clock the same party will leave the Quacken-bush dock on the Mohawk, landing at Olga, a small settlement on Orcas Island, Here packs of blankets and boxes of provisions will be left to horses while the hikers take the trail for the top of Mount Constitution, which is capped with barren rock and a few scraggly trees. Here the hiker may find a niche to make his bed and watch the sunrise over the bay. East Sound, a sheltered inlet on the eastern side of the island, possesses an excellent beach where the party will swim and nave dinner; then back to Olga and BelHngham. An exhibit of the art work done in the fifth grade during the past school year is being shown in the fifth grade room of the training school. The pictorial maps were among the most interesting things shown. They represented the places which each child had seen and had been especially interested in. The most significant things in each locality were drawn in miniature. Two children who had drawn maps of California had its early history in mind as they showed the covered wagons, the Spanish missions, and the localities where gold was discovered. A large map of Japan was particularly well done. A picture of a pagoda, a Buddha, a jinrickshaw, a large modern ship and a Japanese sailboat were shown on this one. Another good map was one of Sherwood forest, which was made as a result of a study of the story of Robin Hood. Good Original Compositions Much could be said of the original compositions. Every one showed the activities and interests of children. One picture showed the trial effort and the finished picture. Much improvement was shown in spacing, perspective, figure drawing and coloring. A rather remarkable picture was one of a close-up of a child watching goldfish in a bowl. Lifelike animals in clay and soap were exhibited. The clay animals were made first in order to get the feeling for line and position. Then the shapes were blocked out on a bar of soap and carved with very good results. The children had made candle sticks of clay and painted them with the tempera paints. The candles were of the ordinary wax variety colored by dipping in paraffine which had been dyed by adding a little wax color crayon. Some beautiful shaded color effects were obtained. Teachers of art and those who expect to teach art could gain many useful ideas by studying this exhibit. Of the approximate 800 students registered for summer quarter, only thirty-three of them are freshmen, entering the Normal for the first time, according to the latest official announcement from the registrar. This figure is much lower than it has been in past years. Upper division students, that is, students who have completed two years' work, comprise 78 per cent of the total enrollment. Many of these are working for life diplomas or reissue of diplomas. Many other students are attending this summer so that they may receive their elementary diplomas in two years and two quarters instead of in three years, which is the new minimum requirement. Men are in the minority, there being only 140 registered. Many States Represented Fifteen states of the Union, and British Columbia are represented by members of the Normal's student body. There are twenty people from Alaska, one from British Columbia. California has three representatives; Idaho, 16; Illinois, 1; Michigan, 1; Minnesota, 3; Missouri, 3; Montana, 15; Nebraska, 1; North Dakota, 7; North Carolina, 1; Oregon, 22; Wisconsin, 1, and Wyoming, 1. Thirty-four out of the thirty-nine counties in the State of Washington are represented. o Benninghoff Speaks On Japanese People At Tuesday Assembly Do students read the Viking ads? Do students read the Viking ads? Do they? Wednesday night proved the point in question beyond dispute when the Normal school clipped Jay Curtis ads from the Viking and attended the dance at the Moose Hall en masse. A glorified rec hour. The old Scotch blood arose in terpsichorean Normalites and the free tickets admitted about 200 said students to the dance. And whatta dance! Our advertiser gasped as Normalites stormed the dance hall door "Do Viking ads pay? Do they?" BOARD OF CONTROL EXTENDS COURTESY Bellingham Tennis Club Granted Sunday Afternoon for City Matches Professor Benninghoff in his lecture at Tuesday's assembly dealt with Japan and its contrast with China. Mr. Benninghoff says that all Japanese students and young people understand the Western countries far better than we do them. He says that Japan has probably trie't gt;est unity, in their culture and government, in the world. All Japanese high schools teach the English language and English and Japanese are the coming languages for ---------- Northwest Viking - 1932 July 1 - Page 2 ---------- lfflill^l@ ^ ^ Vikiiig Formerly The Weekly Messenger—Founded 1899 '-.; . —- '. ; : ' - • ";;'^' . r v ' : gt; i -r Published every Friday except during'; the nibntH '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. .

Valhalla remains the unofficial name. Normalstad remains the official name. Official announcement, 1937: "Contest still open." "Rename Normalstad." W H Y D I D the Viking name Normalstad? Because the Board of Control bought a box of candy, good candy, to award to the person who won the renaming contest. Members of the Viking staff found the candy and ate it and of course felt guilty unless they could rename Normalstad. D I D T H E V I K I N G want Normalstad renamed ? No. That is a name of character and connotations . . . a n d musical. It rhymes with Volstad and Kolstad—tra la la. ' D I D W E W A N T Valhalla? No. No. Nasty Swede name. Do we want to be thought of as a ,5wede school? Again, Ladies and Gentlemen, we say. unto; you, No. No. No. B U T O U R first love. "Do you promise to love, honor—" We do." Normalstad, you remain beloved. Normalstad, you are dear to the hearts of the White and Blue. WE WILL now rise and sing: Sing all hail to Normalstad, Name of beauty and of fame. Satan, take your Swedish name, Always leave us Normalstad. O. K., MICKELSON To Howard Michelson, newly elected member of the Board of Control, we extend our best wishes. To become a member of the governing body of the school is an honor and a privilege. To the members of the board, the students look for real leadership and in them they have always found such ability. May we also congratulate James Stoddard, retiring member of the board, for his conscientious and active participation in the interest of the Associated Students. They tell of the enterprising hitch-hiker who carried the sandwich board on his back reading, "Pick me up or I'll vote for Hoover." He established a record across country. VICTORIA BOUND T H E A N N U A L excursion to Victoria, quaint European city in America, will be made by the Normal school on July 9, and everyone in school will want to take advantage of this opportunity for a wonderful time, * P R O C R A S T I N A T I O N will be the only thing that will prohibit the trip. We will all want to go by the time the plans are made, but the committee. .must know before then. Now is the time to definitely decide that you will make the trip.

T H E R E A R E several obvious reasons why the store is subject to criticism. One is the compulsory, aspect it has in the handling of text books. The store by its nature has a monopoly on all such trade, and in the light of the seemingly excessive cost of books, the criticism is quite naturally levied at the bookstore. LACKING any objective reasons for criticism, students are in the habit of making blanket denunciations of the policy and management of the store and affect a defensive attitude when conducting transactions with the Co-op. W I T H W H A T should be the students' own store, this is a deplorable situation and one that demands the thought of the students and administration alike. I F T H E R E are valid reasons for criticising the policy of the store, the students should have and do have the right to express themselves. Either the students must be allowed to satisfy themselves of their error or discover that there are just criticisms to be made and make provisions for effecting remedies. T H E M A N A G E M E N T of the Co-op is willing to allow students to understand its organization and inspect its accounts. Any student in school with doubts concerning the store should avail themselves of this opportunity. Members of the Board of Control especially should make a point of familiarizing themselves with its organization and management.

Sam takes those clubs of his wherever he goes and we would not be surprised sometime to see him drive a pill of f the roof of his house into Bellingham Bay. And oh yes, Sam's addicted to one other pet aversion, and that's pinochle. Every one has his own picture of heaven and we'll bet a string of five crackers that Sam's anticipating a beautiful green golf course where, after flirting with Old Man Par on a blissful afternoon, he can retire to a peaceful club house and with Gabriel serving the soft drinks, sit down with St. Peter and the rest of the boys and shoot a nice little friendly game of pinochle. The intramural basketball league is just about half over and so far the games have been a lot of fun. There hasn't been one lopsided tilt yet and each team is aware that there aren't any set-ups. We feel we've gotten off lucky in the first two games with only a floor burn on the elbow (check!) and a nice little bluish-black color scheme about f our inches in diameter, directly above the right knee. I appreciate that in attempting to be kind to one another, the boys are almost acting like a bunch of sissies, but no matter how considerate they are, that darn gym is still too smalL The next time the legislature meets, I'll organize an army of my own, and we'll sit in the capitol furniture 'til it's worn out and we'll spit holes in Governor Hartley's spittoons before we'll come home without that new sshh! it's a gymnasium! "Sign up in Sam's office." We had a pile of fun at the W Club initiation this spring. But the story of the election of officers was convulsing. It was held out at the State Park and in the last number on the program, after taking a beating for an hour and a half, the new boys lined up in single file and were tossed into the drink by Jack Faulkner and Ed. Wheaton. Red Van Over was towards the last of the line and when he stalked out on that raft there was something in the air. Ed took him by the feet and Jack hooked him around the chest. On the last stroke of "three" as they hoisted him out over the water, Red grabbed Jack above the wrists and as he zoomed into that water with a s p l a s h, Brother Faulkner went right in with him. We rejoiced, and a cry went up—"Van Over for president!" After supper, when the program came 'round to the election of officers, Red was nominated and elected on the first ballot. These Milwaukee boys can coax music out of anything from a sweet potato to a cement sidewalk. They must have a great old time in the summer raising some of the devil and we wouldn't mind taking a trip with them. "Pop" Gunn is a go-getting member of the recreation committee. He says that if you can't play baseball you can at least support play hour by coming out and cussing the umpires. McCleery's Men Led by WillianJ| Denton and Gable; "Williams Stars FINAL SCORE 30-20 E D E E M I N G themselves after a defeat in their initial s t a r t of the s e a s o n , H. McCleery's Mon-g r e l s relegated the Moochers of M c C l u r k e n to t h e bottom of ) the i n t r a m u r al league standings with a 30-20 victory Monday afternoon. - Mongrel Stars Click Sparked by the brilliant playing of Les Williams and Jim Denton in the first period and the sharpshoot-ing of Johnny Gable during the second half, the Mongrels had little difficulty in copping the game. Although the winners were only leading by a 12-10 score at half-time they were never in danger throughout" the game. Gable, Williams Score High Johnny Gable, b r o a d - jumping center of the Mongrels, re-set his sights in the second half and scored nine points to give himself a total of .eleven markers for the game and high point honors. Following closely with ten points came Paul Williams, Moocher forward who was the big moment in the Moocher attack. He was followed by McClurken and McMackin with five and four, respectively. ! Les Williams garnered seven points for the McCleery aggregation, followed closely by Denton with six. . Lineups follow: Moochers . Mongrels McClurken, 5 F Leatha, 2 P.Williams, 10 F. L.Williams, 7 McMackin, 4 C Gable, 11 Johnson G....H. McCleery, 4 Grimlund G Denton, 6 Substitutions—Moochers, F i s h e r (1) for Johnson, Kirk for Grimlund; Mongrels, Hall for Leatha, Leatha for Williams, Kendricks for McCleery. o CARVER BEST GOLFER IN LOCAL TOURNEY We have convincing evidence this quarter that Bellingham's athletes are of a higher type than most institutions in our class. There is no varsity in the summer and yet we have seen no small number of wearers of the "W" around the institution. It is conclusive proof that these boys are in school fundamentally to get an education. o Betty Taylor, Helen McNeil, Helen Ammons a n d A l i c e Goodfellow camped at Birch Bay last week-end. H * iS * One of Beverly Hall's most popular members is Miss Maureen Johnson, of Seattle, age 7 months, starting her education at B. S. N. S. Mrs. Natalie Dawson, of Beverly Hall, spent:.-.:.the -week-end at .her home in Mount Vernon. • , , v.- • . ' vu .* i--,s HelejjfPejTyjnan, of Beverly Hall, entertained Mary Kinnard^^w^ek,;. During the past week there has been quite a renewal of activity in the ladder tournaments, especially in golf. Coach Sam Carver .at the present is leading the pack but is being pressed closely by a numbel of hot shots who are training their guns on the coveted first rung. Nos-trant. Blix, McBeath, Rhodes and Kirk are in the next five slots, respectively, with Assistant Coach Gunn holding down seventh place after losing a heart-breaking match to McBeath. According to all reports, the match was very close, but McBeath outwalked "Pop." Carver Invincible Coach Carver holds victories over both Blix and Nostrant and is at present marking time until McBeath gets within reaching distance. This will undoubtedly be the golf match of the quarter and will probably end with nothing less than a marathon of thirty-six holes. Leatha Leads in Handball With only three entrants in the handball tournament Vernon Leatha is holding down the top slot with Scotty Skotheim and Billy Osborne in the next two places respectively. Osborne Ambitious With Billy Osborne hanging a challenge over Leatha's head some activity can be expected when these two tangle for first and third places. The result of this game will still leave Skotheim in second place with a last desire to get at least one crack at the winner of the Leatha- Osborne fracas before the start of the intramural baseball season. Chandler in Horseshoe Lead With Chandler, third-place winner last quarter, holding down first place on the ladder after taking Lagger in a close game, 50-49, it begins to look as though Lagger, Forstrom and Cox will have quite a time knocking over the one who was right up in the running with Franny Francisco, and Brill, undoubtedly two bf^tile* begt; horseshoe pitchers ever to''pulj,a,'£qp£iQn,t]ie campus.

Four Teams in Loop . He has a galaxy of soft ball stars in school arid there wiil be little difficulty in rounding up four teams of a very high caliber. Among some of the hot shots who are now in school who will put spark into any team are: Rhodes, Gable, Hugh and Jim McCleery, Chandler, Skotheim, Jimrnie Stoddard and Zeke McClurken. Good Chuckers J Having such flingers as Gable, Skotheim and Chandler, the boys will have to sharpen their eyes quite a bit as all three confess to be in; the pink of condition and ready to' go the -route any time called upon. Johnny Gable at present is doing some wicked throwing for a local team in the city league and is bowling over the city leaguers quite consistently. Chandler also is on the firing line of one of the city league teams, with Scotty Skotheim keeping in shape by throwing dishes at the local cafeteria. Chandler's Chislers Impress With Victory Over McCleery's Mob Chandler's Chislers in their initial game of the season showed unexpected strength by hitting their stride at the opening whistle and piling up an impressive 34-37 victory over Hugh McCleery's Mongrels, last Thursday, June 23. Boulton Flashy A star of unusual caliber was presented by the Chisler outfit in Boulton, flashy forward, who ran unchecked for the greater part of the game and accumulated sixteen points during the course of events. He was followed closely by Rhodes, Chisler center, with an even dozen markers.

The score stood at 15-11 at half time. Sid Comfort, S k u n k forward, swished the twine for thirteen points during the game, followed by Cox with eight and Skotheim with six for the losers. Boulton Hits Stride Boulton, flashy Chisler forward, who caused a good deal of comment in the first Chisler battle, again stepped out in front and bagged a total of twelve points to run Comfort a close second for scoring hon-r ors. Rhodes, another basket Chisler, put the finishing touches on ten fat points to help the Chandler outfit during the game. Chandler, the Chisling manager, also was not idle and boomed home eight points. Lineups follow: Skunks Chislers Comfort, 13 F Boulton, 12 Matheney, 1 F. Nostrant Cox, 8 C Rhodes, 10 Pederson....

The final matches are being completed today .and tomorrow and following the results, the: club is planning to present the trophies to the winners at a dance to be held at the Shell in the near future. I n the men's double, the Fisher brothers, Chuck and Bill, lost a hard-fought match to Jpe Hratz and Thai last Wednesday by a 10-8, 4-6, 6-4, 6-3 score, advancing the winners to the finals, where they meet Johnny Light and Willy Houghton.

Monday the present Supervarsity squad will change to the role of the Varsity hoopsters, when.they play the Mount Vernon Junior college at that city. Little is known as to the strength of the Junior men, but in the past they have provided good material for practice sessions; The college men won a game from the alumni recently. Part of the graduated team was composed of present Normal school students and they reported that at times their opponents showed much speed and flash, but the usual early season rough spots were quite evident. By working his Varsity men into the first half of the City League under the name of Supervarsity players, Carver has given them a chance to get together under fire and find themselves fairly early in the season.

Due to the lack of attendance at the meeting, the selection of the editor and business manager of The Viking was postponed until the meeting nextTuesday. Two students are running for the business position on the paper.. They are Jack herds Greaves and Bob Waters. The only Walters. No decision was made concerning •the courtesy extended at Jukes studio, other than a representative from the studio will appear before the Board next Tuesday. Several students have entered complaints as to service rendered by the studio staff. President. C. H. Fisher will succeed George Black, who recency resigned as president of the El-iensburg Normal, as Normal school representative on the state board of education. Fills Term President Fisher will fill the remainder of Mr. Black's term, which expires in June and then will start a two-year term in his own capacity. The terms rotate naturally between the two schools and as the next term is that of President Fisher, he will succeed Mr. Black at this time. President Fisher -will also attend a meteirig of the stat board of education in Olympia today and tomorrow. TRAINING SCHOOL TO PRESENTJAGEANT PROGRAM TAKES PLACE OF THANKSGIVING FESTIVAL.

The Pink Pistol, successor to the extinct literary magazine, the Red Arrow, made its appearance oh the campus this mbrhnig and was distributed in the regular 11 o'clock assembly. Already many comments have been made cbncrnihg the magazine and much praise has been given the Editors for the general make-up. The publication contains humorous short stories, plays', poems, and jokes, submitted by local students and written by Normalites. The magazine contains many such spicy and alluring titles arid captions as "Hell-Hath No Fury", "Let No Dog Bark";r"To the Whoofus Bird", and "Now Don't, Poker Face". The Pink Pistol was published by three students with the authority of the Board of Control. The editors were: Arden Benthien and Vernon V. Vine, and the business manager was Stanley Hpveland. The publishers, before starting to work, formulated the magazine's aim and policy in the slogan, "Hot Shots for Half Shots." v ' Mr. James Carrell was faculty adviser. Some of the contributors were: Jack Greaves, Joe, Hermseri, Kathryn, Jensen, Irene Schagel, and Rose Carrigan. The magazine contains 28 pages and has 22 separate features.

In fact, it contains" ia •clause excepting the schools. There is one way, though, that it may touch the informals held off the campus by various Viking units. They are nothing else but private functions and cannot be classed otherwise, except in one instance. That being that an outside member of "a couple is allowed to purchase a ticket and attend and therefore it would technically make it a public dance. However, quite legally the school ;candefinitely establish itself on this question by issuing an invitation, such .ias';ii^''in':.ReC:'H6urs, and thus it would be proven that the outsiders are guests of the school. ^ At the present time there is nothing to worry about, as all indications have it that the proposed ruling will be put "by the board" by the large amount of opposition. In fact, the effect of this ruling would be so far reaching that it is one of the most unpopular movements that has been put on foot here for some time. The Normal school students have been quite interested in the little dances that may be thrown periodically in the small-Viking room of the College Pharmacy. The writer investigated the last one staged there and found it to be well supervised, quite orderly, and the school should feel proud that such a place is provided for its students to enjoy themselves'when no other functions are in progress. There was a nominal admission charged that went solely to pay the group of student musicians that did the playing. It Was impossible to determine, at a late hour last night, the rating that this place would get with this ordinance in effect. However, according to one of the attorneys connected with the friction, it is very likely that Baughman's would fall under the class of the public •dance hall. Naturally that doesn't regard the dancing carried on each day when no admission is charged. It is unfair to class such a dance as public, and it isn't fair to the many students that wish to have a little pleasure without having to pay a good sized admission or to have to go far from the school campus where there is a crowd drawn from all classes. In this case the ordinance seems • to haye much petty and personal incidents mixed on both sides, and there is much jealousy among the factions. Thus if it should go through there is a chance that out of this jealousy there will be every attempt to be sure that everyone touchable is "hooked" by it. By doing so, sentiment may be aroused to such a point that a change in the law will come about. To make itself clear on the matter, The Viking, in conclusion, states that it has no prejudices against the ordinance as it regulates public dances/and we do not question nor advocate it. But when it comes to implicating the school affairs or any that are provided at the two neighboring "hangouts," we feel that we have a right to take a stand on the situation. If these dances should become obnoxious, the school officials can take care of them without any outside legislation. The students must "have good, legitimate places to mingle together, and although to date nothing has interfered with these, nevertheless we feel that, as a part of lithe school, it is up to us to stand for student rights. After all, if this •ordinance should in any.way take these previously mentioned functions under its jurisdiction, it would be impossible for them to run financially. .This would drive students to less desirable and less controllable places, so it might pay the school officials to investigate and make sure that they are getting a fair deal in the matter, though in all fairness to the backers 6i; said amendments we admit that they do not mean to primarily affect the schools. But we remind you that many laws have miscarried their unexpressed, purposes. . «% ONE STEP In rece'nf Vears/as stress has been placed on inter-schbol football by the. educational units of the country, the feasibility of its has been questioned. ,, •jj The Carnegie Foundation investigation of two seasons .ago was one . ojf the first big steps in bringing this before the public. : ;'; . The next action was carried by three California universities this season in their row oyer charges brought against Southern California for paying its athletes too highly for the jobs they held. In many schools the educators have questioned the right of making so much of the athlete, and have doubted if the extensive football training and little studying has accomplished for him what the school intended. ;, Here in Bellingham the same question has been discussed numerous times, , although athletics here amount to practically nothing alongside of the big guns of the coast or even some of tKe rival Normal schools of the state. _••:•:•••••'. ':'..'.''" ^ We have felt that this question,would gradually accumulate backers and opposition Until at some time.or other, action would be taken and then a; showdown could be expected,'and that, it Would take just one school to make an attempt to abolish' inter-school athletics and then things would be" wide open for others • ;;Thusr'we' look;with" interest on the. fact that quite recently Loyola, 'iff; Chicago, has dispensed wikh'further football relationsr outside' the ^school, beginning with the coming season.

The condition of the rats at the end of a given period Of time will prove that the-lack of certain foods is fatal and the use of correct foods is absolutely essential to life. • _io WHITE RATS PROVIDE MEANS OF FOOD TESTS Several weeks ago the nutrition department of the Normal school purchased three white albino rats from the Oregon state college.

The little mice will be four weeks old this week-end.

XXXVI—NO. 22 WESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGE OF EDUCATION Live And %k Learn By Don Gooding- Here's mud in your eye! * * * * * Drama ran rife in last week's issue of the Viking. Good old "Much Ado" held up the comedy end of the drama all right, but the mystery part was a little less out in the open, as some mysteries are. Look hard now and you'll see it. . . Twas a scoop (what?) was this mystery, that claimed corsages were emphatically not in line for the big Valentine Sport dance—which had been held three weeks before. Pretty good Phyllis, now, tell us about the corsages for the^Valkyrie dance. Some drama, what? Fackler, Power Travel In Victoria Conference, Held in Canada, Discusses Peace, Angus Addresses Group Delegates Also Dance Leader in Peace Movement Gives Short Talk And how many of you ladies took advantage of the offer of free admittance to the Yankee ballroom on February 20, tendered as a special treat by kind-hearted advertisers in the Viking for March 5? After all, it's the thought that counts. * * * * * TIS BUT A LIMERICK! No piker at love was Miss Pat, But her pet cherish it seemed was a hat; On the bees in her bonnet Some lad wrote a sonnet— Said Pat in a spat, "Yur a rat*(!" Oh, what miracles doth nature possess. The rainbow that came to town Tuesday, the first in a long string of months, was just a dinky one and hardly worth comment were it not a swell eye-opener for a little reminiscing about the subtlety, of the rough and tumble pioneer days of this state. In "those" days they didn't wait on climatical whims to see rainbows. Instead, a regular fellow went to bed with the multi-colored stars and rose with, not one, but six or seven, bluish rainbows striving to lend glamor to the map. Just a bunch of softies, eh? # * * * * Here's a real manifestation of good fellowship. Scene—St. Luke's hospital, Bellingham. There, battling desperately for his life, lay Wes Baker, former Whatcom star athlete and student. Early in the week he weakened and a call for blood transfusions went out. Out went the call, and in poured the volunteers . . . some good friends, others who knew him only passingly . . . all seeking to give aid. So numerous became the offers that soon the hospital staff was turning them down. Even the Westerners had a delegation, with six fellows ready and willing. Sort of restores your faith in human nature, doesn't it? # * * * * Up in Breadmore, Ontario, the night owls are running amuck, and running amuck with a vengeance. Unlike the American variety, this bird of which you are now being enlightened was a mean possessor of six powerful talons. It utilized 'em one night by trying to carry off two miners who were bound for some nocturnal haunt. The miners reported a conservative estimate of the fowl's size was about four feet. Some guys claim they see pink elephants, but this is even better. Maybe the owl has been reading the papers (kidnaping, and all that stuff.) * * * * * Looks as if the glacial period has returned. If the Black Rapids glacier, which is moving three feet per diem, keeps up its good work, the nearby residents of Mount Hayes Alaska, will have plenty of ice to cool their feet on next Summer. It 11 make some good ice-cold lemonade, too. Sa-ay, haven t we got a glacier around Bellingham somewhere?" * * * * * The old Live (love) and Learn scribe and his column are beginning to look like questionnaire, n'est-ce pas?

The most outstanding speaker of the meetings was Dr. John Dewey who though now 78 years of age, presented a very vigorous and energetic ap-pearance. He spokse on the topic "Democracy in School Administration." He was made an honorary member of life of the Department of Superintendence. At the meeting of the John Dewey society, which was named in his honor, Dr. Dewey gave an address on "Education and the Social Change". The American Association of Teacher's colleges appointed President Fisher as a member of the accrediting committee, the appointment to last for five years. The committee is to make a study of the teachers colleges in the United States and rate these institutions according to the standards set up by the association. A movement is on foot to change the standards from the present quantitive standards to more qualitative standards. This work will make the work of the committee very interesting for the next few years. College Accredited In the list of accredited teacher's colleges of the United States, published this year, the Western Washington College of Education received full accreditation without any deficiency. In previous years the school has had some deficiencies due to the preparation of the faculty, but this difficulty has been overcome. Next year any schools having any deficiencies at all will be eliminated from this list of accredited teacher's colleges. This college got in one year before the time of a change of standard. Mr. Fisher was very much interested in seeing New Orleans because it is so utterly different from any other American city. He was de- Instructors To Return Spring Quarter "I hope to meet my classes over in the main building again at the beginning of spring quarter," says Miss Anna Ullin, of the English department. Miss Ullin, who fractured her leg six weeks ago, is improving rapidly and hopes to discard her cast in another two weeks. At the present time she is holding her classes in Edens hall. Miss Gertrude Longley is still confined to her home as a result of an attack of inflammatory rheumatism, but is improving slowly and hopes to come back to her duties spring quarter. _o lighted with the old French section of the city and said that it compared with many old European •cities. He also did some inquiring about the work and life of Huey Long. He found evidences of Long's work on every hand. In a museum he found a picture with the inscription underneath "the greatest builder in the history of Louisiana." Huey Long a Builder During the regime of Huey Long the common school of the state got twice as much money. He rebuilt the University of Louisiana on a new location with entirely new buildings and raised the enrollment from 1600 students to 8000. He built extensive highways and many fine bridges all of which are free from toll. The most striking of these bridges is the one across the Mississippi river where the span is nearly two miles wide. The late senator also built the new state capitol which is a magnificent edifice in the modernistic style, a towering 35 stories into the sky. Huey Long is buried before this skyscraper which creates the effect of a monument to his life. Though the Mississippi is a tremendous problem wherever it^wends its way, President Fisher found that the people of New Orleans felt perfectly secure against any danger of the levees breaking. The Federal government has built an immense spillway about 25 miles north of the city, which diverts the water through a lake to the gulf. In compliment to President Fisher, Miss Hilda Rosene, formerly of the faculty of this school and now a member of the faculty of the University of Texas, arranged several dinners and luncheons during Dr. Fisher's visit to the university. This gave him a splendid opportunity to meet the members of the faculty of the school and learn of the school's policies. Miss Rosene has made a name for herself and is highly esteemed among her colleagues. She is at present connected with the zoology department of the University of Texas. President Fisher was very interested in the many new buildings that have been recently erected on the campus and spent several days in visiting them. He also learned of the great and almost unlimited possibilities for the future development of the state of Texas. o Art Department Features California Exhibit Board of Control Hears Angel Report Finances Report Rejected Until Next Week After Angel Fails To Make Issue Clear Kluge Re-applies Ford Applies for Expense Money To 'Frisco School of Fine Arts Sends To Us, Student's Pictures; Two Washington Scholarships Restring Machine Installed "Much. Ado ToR an At Guild Theater This Week The cast of "Much Ado About Nothing" will take their properties and settings and make an appearance at the Bellingham Theater Guild playhouse this week. They will run for three nights, but students will not be admitted on their student body tickets. A full admission price of 40 cents plus tax will be charged everyone except those who have season tickets to the Theater Guild performances. It is expected that the cast will give a more finished performance due to the length of run. This is partially because the cast receives a great deal of satisfaction in giving these shows after six weeks of hard work and patient rehearsal. Formerly the school's productions of Shakespeare have filled the house at the Guild performances.

A small part of the material came from outside the classes. The literary edition is a new experience, both for the editor and the administration. The page is composed of original copy and represents some of the best efforts of the composition students. Instructors of comp classes materially assisted the publication by submitting possible copy. Kathryn Hatch and Bob McConnell v/ere aids in collecting and typing the material. Since the students financed the experiment through the Board of Control, student reaction will be the guiding factor used to determine the further existence of the page. The Board of Control dubiously sanctioned the insert, with the reservation that student opinion would decide the value of such an innovation. The editorial staff has done its part. Now it's up to you, and you, too. Let the Forum have your opinions. Boy, what a trick it would be if the chief magician pulled an extra day's vacation from his Easter hat.

A philosopher is a blind man in a dark room searching for a black cat that isn't there. When there's revival of learning, and leaves begin turning, it's not fall —not at all! It's examination time again. If you think the Stroller's prose is bad, just remember, it might be verse . . . "Eleven weeks the students play; Next Thursday, comes the reck'ning day.

To end all absent-minded professor jokes: He had taken the train to his school, was surprised to find he had his ticket and baggage. He was puzzled—extremely so, and went to the phone, called his wife and asked, "Did I leave my money home? Did I bring all my books? Did I forget to kiss you good-by? Have I come a week too early?" Upon receiving affirmation that all was in proper order, he muttered perplexedly, "Heavens, I've forgotten nothing. I must be getting absent-minded!" Poetry KING ARTHUR'S NIGHTS In days of old, when armor sold At fifty cents a lot. • King Arthur ruled with a pow'rful mitt In ancient Camelot. One day while chawing daintily At the good old table round A maiden came a-rushin' in With a squeeky feminine sound. "Oh Lord," she cried, "What can I do?" The king slammed down his cup, He said, "You can't swear 'round my men, It's bad on their bringing-up." She heed him not, but she went right on, She said, "They got my pooch, Twenty strong men in armor bright, And full of pre-war hooch." King Arthur called to his blacksmith bold, "Jonathan, iron my pants, I'm going to knock them guys cold, Don't let me miss this chance." He leaped upon his saw-horse brave "Excalibur" out he drew, He rushed through the door like a tidal wave And down the pavement he flew. The men beheld him coming, As at them he did dash, And they snickered mightily within themselves As they planned to make some hash. He hit—and out of the slush there came Many mighty whales. The men and armor went up in the air And down came sausage and nails. By Mike O'Shaughnessey (Psuedonym.)

The first races are scheduled at 10:00 a. m. Inter-club races between selected teams will be run first with individual entrants participating later on. Pedestrian spectators are assured the race course will be easily available by walking, thanks to the CCC and Forest service. A tip for the ambitious—an all day ski trip up over Austin pass, around Table mountain, and up to the foot of Mount Baker is well worth the effort! Beautiful scenery, fresh unbroken expanses of powder snow and a feeling of exploration are a few of the rewards for the climb, not forgetting the flying three or four mile mile run back down to the Lodge. Don't forget your smoked glasses, grease paint, and sunburn cream. It gets mighty hot in them there hills. And oops, almost forgot-don't leave your skiis home...

The audience gasped when one of the arches swayed forward and leaned gently on the curtains; it gurgled when the curtains refused to be split asunder; but those who heard the little blonde's exclamation, when the assistant constable's lamp went up in smoke, fairly shouted.

A few had not yet arrived, but it was not long before all were present. She remarked that as president she had to be on time, but that before she had been made president she had been just as prompt! Promptness is a virtue in anyone. The last tardy member removed her wraps with nervous haste and sat down, painfully conscious of the attention directed toward her. Jane Morgley knew every woman in Lakeview; however, not one of them could say she knew Jane Morgley intimately. A few privileged ones called her "Jane," but always spoke of her as "Jane Morgley." Never just "Jane." She allowed her glance tovpass severely from one face to another as she rapped sharply for order. She frowned her disapproval upon Helen Cameron, who was silencing her squirming offspring by a sudden gripping of his arm and a significant glance. Why on earth didn't people leave their children at home? She never took Thornton with her to anything like this. Children have ne place at such a gathering where business is concerned—they grow restless, even if they have received training. One could easily see the Cameron boy had had none! There was Margaret Lyle looking hungrily at Prankie Cameron, her eyes growing bright was tears. She was biting her lips, trying to hide her emotion, but she suddenly sobbed and ran from the room. Margaret's son had been buried only three weeks ago and naturally she still felt very bad about the loss. But somehow it was almost—well, common—to make such a scene. She needn't have made such a spectacle of herself. After all, we all have to go sometime. That little Mrs. Peterson was brushing away a sympathetic tear. Feeling the stern eyes of the president upon her she looked up and smiled timidly. Jane nodded formally— she hated timidity of any kind. To her it spelled weakness. Anyway, the Petersons were a worthless lot. She could never fathom why Thornton so enjoyed going over to play with those impossible children! She prevented it as often as possible. He was usually a little difficult after an afternoon with those ruffians. John always laughed and said it did Thornton good. Jane Morgley found her husband difficult at times, also. Margaret Lyle slipped back into Absalom and Joseph By Winifred Kreiter Arising from where he reclined luxuriously upon silks and sating, Absalom the vain, the proud, the haughty, yawned and stalked over to a great long mirror. There he sat down, preening himself, admiring his magnificent stature and the gloss and shine of his long beautiful hair. He turned curiously as the door was pushed open, but upon seeing Joseph enter, he closed his eyes in disdainful tolerance. Poor Joseph limped painfully across the room and stretched out his long thin body upon the rug with a tremulous sigh. His coat of many colors^ often the worse for the wear and tear it suffered, was really quite ragged and even pitifully ripped on one shoulder. One eye was swelled shut, the result of a belligerent encounter the night before, while the other eye, bright and humorous, blinked lazily. Neither spoke. Joseph finally turned his back toward Absalom and tenderly nursed his aching head. The two cats purred cautiously as they watchfully maintained their own particular corner, ignoring one another except for an occasional hostile sound in each throat, expressing their mutual contempt. her place unnoticed and folded her hands quietly in her lap. Suddenly seeing her Jane realized that they were wasting time. The afternoon would soon slip by and they would have accomplished nothing. Well, there was one thing—people could never truthfully say Jane Morgley wasted a moment. Only this morning she had remarked to John—and he had agreed—that if many of us had the time we squander added to the ends of our lives we could live three times as long. Grace Larkin, Madge Johnson and Norma Burton were talking and laughing pleasantly at her side. One would think they never saw each other and they Were together consatntly. It seemed as if they might postpone their conversation until after an important business meeting could be adjourned. She beat a rapid tattoo with the gavel and received immediate attention from all. On Walking at Night' THE WAY OVER ' " " * ' . . . • ' And I was glad That I walked alone at night. And the clouds hung in a dark bank Over the tinsel lights of the city. The mad moon pierced the mist— The devils danced hi the street-lamps. The city hummed like a giant top I n its pursuit of money and mirth. The houses shook with their secrets. And, oh, I was glad That I walked alone in the night I n the laughter and the cold. THE WAY HOME The streets are all so quiet, The houses crouching l o w - Prom corner, lamp to corner lamp Silently I go. What matter that the rain is cold Or that the i wind is chill? He who walks alone at night Must be strong of will. Cars go by so swiftly— A flash of light—and then gone— I, too, must be hurrying . To reach my home by dawn. —Hope Kingsley. The Poet's Corner TWO MINDS Professor Albert Einstein, physicist, sits I n an armchair before the fire And smokes his pipe. A thought flies out of his head, Out of the world, out of the universe. Farther, farther— A billion million miles it goes, perhaps, And, clutching a galaxy, bears it back In triumph to the professor, Who still is sitting there before the fire. Salute the mind of man—supreme. Mister John Smith, murderer, Sentenced to die, sits in his cell, And stares into nothingness. A thought goes out from him, Out of the condemned block, Out of the prison, into the city, Down sordid streets, dark alleys— Picks up the rotting body Of a dead man, Carries it back to Mister Smith To wrestle with while He waits for dawn. Salute the mind of man—supreme? —James Barnhart. T LOVE Thin black sprites agilely. Dance, on padding animal feet; While, over the flames A huge heart slowly turns Upon a spit. A.long fork jabs into it, And as the red blood drips And sizzles merrily The little people laugh with glee And dance harder—ever So much harder. CONSCIENCE The smoke flows N o r t h - Gently, Lest it wake him To more angry blasts; Surely, With the strength it needs For moving sail-strung masts. The sky turned blue and white Drifts Into mystic dream-webbed stars, Weaving Constellation melodies From old mysterious bars. Each in its subtle way Bespeaks of Spring's return; Each has much to give And even more to learn. —Marguerite Winterhalter. Two huge eyes stare Down a mile-long pair of tubes Converge upon a mass Of quivering jell. They move closer, closer, Settle around it with horrible finality And—I have died again. —James Barnhart o The little moon was lost behind the low veil of clouds. The friendly human earth-lights were hidden and the moon could not see her way. The search lights flashed on the uneven surface of the clouds. Not a single star peeped through. The whole sky danced in the freedom of concealment from the watchful eyes of the earth.

I knew it was too good a job for you to hold down for long. I told you so before, didn't I? Oh, I know you'll say that it was the depression, but you haven't held a job for over a year at a time since we were married." John fixed his eyes on a knot in the floor. "No, of course, it wasn't your fault. It never is your fault. It was just lucky I had friends that you could get a job through.

I haven't had a new dress for two months. I'm ashamed to go out of the house and meet my friends. And what do you care? About the only one you care about is yourself. Well, let me tell you something, John Maxwell, you can just go right on and take all the good care of yourself you want, because I'm leaving, and I'm leaving now." The outer door banged shut after her. The house was suddenly quiet. John picked his hat up from the floor and walked over to the fire-, place and sat down. How things have changed, he thought. I wonder if she'll ever realize that I did try to do my best? If she would only stop to think she would see it that way, but the life she was living now, with Violet and Ed, and Mabel and Dick, were too fast for her to stop and do that. A muffled cry, -"Daddy," came from the bedroom. "Jean! I forgot all about her," John said to. himself, as-he walked into, her little bedroom. She was sitting on the edge of her little bed. He noticed that the bed was getting small for her, but then why wouldn't it? She was nearly six now and she had had it since she was three. 'I'm hungry, daddy," she said as her father bent over and kissed her. "Has mommy got dinner ready?" "Mother won't he here for dinner, darling, but daddy will get you something to eat. What would you 'like for dinner?" Jean held out her little feet for iher father to put her slippers on. "M—let's see. I'd like some waffles and bacon and eggs. Oh yes, and some coffee. You'll let me drink it when mommy isn't here, won't you, daddy." "Sure, you can have some coffee." He picked Jean up and hoisted her to his shoulder. She liked that. She was always coaxing to ride on his back. He walked out into the kitchen and started to get dinner. He did not know much about cooking, to. say nothing about waffles, but somewhere Ethel had a cookbook. He rummaged through all the drawers. He could not find it. He opened the cupboard door and there it was right in front of him. He thumbed through the index. Waffles, waffles—fruit, chocolate, who ever heard of fruit and chocolate waffles. This cookbook must be crazy. Plain waffles, there it was, page sixty-four. .He read the recipe hurriedly and started at his task. Jean was in his way whichever way he turned, so he gave her a flour sifter of flour and a bowl and set her to work. .While doing this his mind kept thinking about Ethel. If she would only stop to think and try to see things as he did, but things seemed to have gone too far for that now. If we hadn't started going around with Violet and Ed and their crowd things would never be this way. When I had the job at Simpson's we never had enough money to worry over. Still I had to get something better. We couldn't live forever on a salary like that, but even when I did, things turned for the worse instead of the better. Ether seemed to change completely, but I guess it is just as well, for we couldn't have kept on the way we had been. He poured the roughly mixed batter into the sizzling iron. He got too much in and it ran out onto the table. Little geysers of steam gushed out the sides and faded out as they were absorbed by the air. If Ethel were only here she would know just how much to put in, he thought. "Where did mommy go, daddy?" "Who,—What—Oh—she went over to your grandmother's." "When will she be back?" "I don't know, Jean, but it won't be very long." "Will mommy be back tonight, daddy?" "No. Come on now, your waffle is Disillusionment Tall pine trees, Covered*with snow, Lift pleading arms to Heaven; Asking, "Why do we stand here? Is there a purpose?" And moan sadly when they realize That no one ever hears. '. -o—; DEATH A black bird Pauses— In its flight, Clutches a writhing soul, Carries it into— Impenetrable night. '•* —James Barnhart o - lt;— all hot and ready and here is your coffee." - "Well, why isn't mommy coming back tonight, daddy? Is Grandmother sick?" "Yes—that's it. Come on now and eat your waffle." "Oh well, we can get our own breakfast, can't we, daddy? I'll get up early so as you won't be late for work, too." She didn't know that he didn't have to go to work any more. Perhaps it was just as well. He would wait and tell her in the morning. He would have to tell her about Ethel, too. She didn't know that she had left him. He wondered if Ethel would come back and try to take little Jean away from him. He wouldn't give her up. No sir, not if he even had to go to court about it. He could prove that Ethel would be no fit mother for a child. It would be hard to testify against his wife though, she still meant a lot to him. "Daddy, the waffle is burning up." He wrenched the iron open. The waffle was burned to a black crisp and its smoke started to fill the small kitchen. He picked up the iron and ran for the sink. It burned his hands before he could set it down. Both of them had been so intent on the burned waffle that they didn't hear the front door open and neither of them knew that Ethel was in the room till she spoke. "Here, John, let me fix that. Honest-to-goodness, you are so clumsy. Jean, run and get the un-guentine from the medicine cabinet." Jean ran from the room. "I see you gave Jean coffee." "Yes, but it is half water, Ethel." "I can't step out for a single minute but something happens. It is a darn lucky thing that I came back to you would both be dead in a couple of days, if not by accident, by the food you two are eating. Just look at that waffle dough." Miss Annabelle Morris By Anna Padden Susan carefully scrutinized herself in the mirror. No—you couldn't call that unruly twist on the ends of her hair a curl—but then curls did sound so much more intrguing—besides when she did get that permanent she would be curled. "I am slender, of medium height and have lovely blonde curls. My eyes are deep blue"—sea blue would have been more specific—"and my profile is as classic as that of a Greek statue." Susan's conscience bothered her a little on that last item—a side glance in the mirror belied her statement —her nose had a decidedly saucy tilt—but then some of the noses on the statues weren't so hot—she'd seen one with a wholesome chip right off the tip. "I am 19 years, old—yes, 19 was old enough—many had lived full lives and died by then—but 19 did sound so cold and dull and uninteresting. She should have done better on that. I first saw the light of day 19 moons ago—definitely better—moons always make things more romantic, anyway. Why hadn't she thought of it?

Last Friday afternoon's rec hour was the last all-school dance of the quarter, and the Valkyrie sport dance, given last Saturday night at the Leopold hotel, was the final club social "Much Ado About Nothing" provided many laughs for the audience on Friday evening last. Miss Sundquist and Miss Johnson addressed the Alkisiahs Monday night, while the performance of Dr. Hicks and the WWC orchestra at Tuesday's assembly was the outstanding event of the day. Mr. Brown's leadership of the faculty chat Wednesday evening was well received. The WAA carnival in the new gym yesterday afternoon provided much merriment for the women of the student body, while the concluding tea, sponsored by Edens hall, was served yesterday afternoon in the Women's League room. Johnson, Sundquist Address Alkisiah Club Miss Florence Johnson, dean of women, and Miss Leona Sundquist, of the science department, addressed the members of the Alkisiah club on their experiences of their trips in Sweden and Finland, respectively. The meeting was held Monday evening, March 8, in Edens Hall club room. Rosetha Newman, chairman of the program committee, presided. The program was opened by a song sung by Ruth Hallegren in Swedish. Miss Johnson spoke about her travels in Sweden, made in 1929. She told how she entered the country by plane, flying from Germany. It was on this flight that Miss Johnson met the famous match king, Ivar Krueger. The dean of women exhibited many of her souvenirs, and made special mention of Dalarne, a province in northern Sweden, that is trying to preserve all their Swedish costumes for special use on holidays and festivals, and to keep alive all the old crafts of their people. It is in this province that the famous Swedish fine glassware, Orrefors, is made. Miss Sundquist spoke of her trip to Finland and explained the Finnish philosophy of life, which has a melancholy strain, to the group. She stated that there are no classes in Finland, because everyone is poor. Later she described the Finnish steam bath process. Edens Hall Hostesses At Tea Thursday Edens hall girls were hostesses at the final weekly tea of the quarter, given yesterday afternoon in the Women's League room between 2:30 and 3:30 p. m. Jeanne Borgstedt, social chairman of the hall, had general charge of arrangements. Miss Florence Johnson, dean of women, poured for the occasion. Girls who served and assisted Miss Borgstedt were: Margaret Kane, Martha Lou Pulver, Kay Kopervig, Patricia Stoddard, Elizabeth Card-well, Louise McAbee, Virginia Holm, and Betty Franklin.

Guests included: Chet Dombroski, Dick Carver, Dan Gagnon, Bob Phair, John Fox, Tony Zambas, Hugo Anderson, John Anderson, Harold Nelson, Bill Taylor, Bud VanderGriend, and Coach C. Lappenbusch. Play Cast Honored With Party At Bellingham Hotel An after-theater party, in honor of the play cast of "Much Ado About Nothing" will be given Saturday night, March 13, in the small dining room of the Bellingham hotel following the final play performance at the Theater Guild playhouse. Refreshments will be served buffet style. Wilda Hawley, assistant play director, has general charge of the affair. Guests will include members of the play cast, stage crew, make-up and property committees, members of the Theater Guild, and friends. Practical Side Being Stressed; Achievement Tests Help Hoekstra, Former Student, Elected to Chemistry Honorary Henry Hoekstra, of Lynden, who completed his second year of study at WWC last June, and who is a chemistry major at the University of Washington, has been recently elected to the Ammonii Socii, chemistry professional honorary. Mr. Hoekstra is the second former WWC student to be elected to the organization in recent months. Glen Ny-green was also recently elected. Mr. Hoekstra was a member of the WWC Scholarship society, and was employed as an assistant in the science department while he attended here. When It's Your Move Let's Make it "Our Move" 1 MODEL S G !

One fourth grade group is studying how the people of Mexico live, with the objectives of understanding and appreciating the work of the Mexican people. In connection with this work, they have studied pottery and utensils, and made models in clay, using the authentic colors of Mexican work which they found in their surveys. Western Union Visited Electricity is the .subject for a unit being worked out by a sixth grade group. The various uses of electric power, and how it changes our lives is stressed. The children noted the uses of electricity in the school building and in their homes. One of the problems of this unit will be bring an old ironing cord from home and attempt to repair it, thus giving the child practical experience with the use of electrical equipment. Excursions to the Western Union Telegraph office to find how electricity functions in the sending of messages, and to the fire station to see how it works in connection with alarms, have been part of this unit. Units Taught "In the city, the student assumes responsibility for teaching an entire group of children in a specialized subject and its related activities, which make up a unit of study," says Miss Wilma Trent, intermediate supervisor. In addition to their regular teaching, student teachers in the city intermediate grades are asked to familiarize themselves with the results of the achievement tests given to city school children in the fall. In this way the student teacher knows the achievement of each child, and feels a responsibility • for his improvement. o Girls Club Enjoys Outing Scepter and Shield girls enjoyed an evening of fun along with a ceremonial meeting which was held out at Mrs. Anderson's cabin on Lake Whatcom. The dinner was, for the most part, cooked on a stick over the fireplace. Doris Siler, Arlene Logan, and Elsie Beandeau had charge of the dinner.

The smoke and fire of the basketball season has cleared away, leaving Cheney in possession of the Tri-Normal crown- for the second straight year. This may be the last lime a Tri-Normal basketball champ will be crowned. The coaches are dickering for a new league, which has all the possibility of being formed at the Triangular track meet to be held here this Spring. ,„,,., With a new league, all old jinxes will be washed away. The eleven years in the cellar position will be forgotten; more conference games to play and to win, Amen; and maybe if we pray hard enough the Vikings will be crowned the first champ of the new league. Looking over the strength of the three Normal teams for next year, all seem to be on a par. Cheney loses only one man and that is Kerns, ace guard, picked on the Viking all Tri-Normal. Cappa, of the Crier, expects Ellensburg to have the strongest team ever, while the Vikings will also be at top strength, losing only VanderGriend. Baseball Ceases to Reign Baseball, king of American sports, will not be a part of the spring athletics at WWC. Coach Lappen-busch and Prexy are justified in their decision to drop the sport for a season at least. There is no field for the game unless one is rented, which will require the expenditure of quite a sum of money. The game does not draw well enough to warrant the rental of such a field. No opponents are to be had from among the other Normals. The only games available would be with the U. of W. Prosh and C.P.S. Victories in these games are of no special significance, as there is no title at stake. And so we say goodbye to baseball, the gone but not forgotten sport.

F. Lappenbusch's hopes for tennis this season lie mostly in the finding and developing of new material at the beginning of next quarter. Having lost the services of Ladd Shangle, number 1 man, Bill Hus-sey, number 2 man, and the return of Ed Murphy to the fold still uncertain, Western Washington college has left of last year's tennis aces only Chet Orloff, an easy stroking letter winner. Orloff, last year's number 4, will no doubt be holding down the head of the tennis ladder, at least in the early part of the season. A schedule already tentatively lined up includes home and home matches with the University of Washington Freshmen, the College of Puget Sound, Mount Vernon Jun ior college, Pacific Lutheran college, Ellensburg, and the Yakima Junior college. The Tri-Normal matches will be held here this year. Bellingham High School Basketball Team In State Tournament Having cleared the county and district high school basketball tournaments in smashing style, Bellingham high's Red Raiders are now hard at work preparing for the final jump, the State meet in Seattle, March 17-20. Twelve teams have won trips to Seattle, with four others yet to be picked. Those already chosen are Bellingham, Everett, Anacortes, Eatonville, Stadium of Tacoma, Cle Elum, West Valley, Wenatchee, Lewis and Clark, of Spokane, Walla Walla, Dayton, and Roy. The powerful Raiders put on the pressure to beat Everett in the finals, 41-24, after defeating Sedro Woolley and Marysville in earlier games. The championship game wasn't quite as much a walkaway as score indicates. The Seagulls gave the locals some anxious moments in the first quarter, leading 9-6, but Coach Lee Rankin's squad began to click in the second stanza, forging to the front to lead, 19-14, at half time. In the last half the Raiders, led by Chamberlain and Harvie, pushed in the points from all angles, which made a marked letdown in the Everett attack.

Coach Sam Carver received a post card from Bright, asking for permission to use the track on the afternoon of March 25, declaring that he will come to Bellingham from Spokane, where he will have competed in a mile run the previous day. After an overnight rest here, Bright will go to Seattle for another workout before entertaining for Portland, where he will run the mile against Glen Cunningham, the world's record holder, at the Hill Military academy. While attending WWC, Bright held the Tri-Normal record for the mile with a time of 4:32.8. The record still stands. o Strong Golf Team Faces Heavy Schedule Western Washington college's golf team, with four returning letter-men and four good prospects in school for the spring quarter, should afford opposing squads strong competition this season, according to golf coach Sam Carver. "Our former teams," said Carver, "have been weak in that our 5th man has not been strong enough, but as we possess eight good men this year as a starter, there should be no indication of this ever-recurring trouble. "The lettermen," he continued, "will not be able to rest on their previous laurels but will have to get out and work or take the chance of getting shoved into the discard by the newer men." Matches definitely scheduled at present are as follows: April 23—PLC Here . May 6—PLC There May 7—CPS There May 20—Ellensburg Dual Here May 21—Tri-Normal Here Carver is also dickering for CPS here, two matches with the U of W Frosh, and two with the U of BC.

Carver expressed his belief that about 25 aspirants will be out seeking a berth on the 1937 squad. This year's Vikings will be practically a freshman squad, being built around five returning lettermen. Holder and Phair in the jumps and hurdles, Taylor in the mile, Johnson the sprints, and Angel the javelin, are the only returning veterans. Johnson, a three year dash man, might be out his last season, due to foot trouble. Another blow was dealt to Carver's hopes when it was learned that Andy Heverling, last year's state hurdle champion, will be unable to enroll this season. Lots of incoming talent, good, bad, and indifferent, will be swarming the track this year. Some likely distance men should be developed from Houser, Friedman, Millhol-land, Punk, Thompson, and Kamperman. So far only one weight man is trying out, that being Kallio in the shotput. Johnston and Weber, 1936 state high school broadjump champion, are grooming themselves for the sprints and broadjump. Goodman, Nelson, and Mickle will give the lettermen lots of competition in the highjump, while Dziedzic, Hovick, and McAulay will make up the pole-vaulters. Much strength would be added to the Viking squad if Don Kenoyer, holder of the Tri-Normal 880-yard record, should return, but this is very doubtful. Four meets have been scheduled for the coming season, the first one being with the Mount Vernon Junior college.

Here's what you have been waiting for, folks. The all-star team! After wearing out four pencils and one adding machine (the school will buy a new one, for it was used for a worthy cause), the following ten men have emerged to win places on the 1937 all-star class A intramural first and second teams: First Second Murphy F Chase Tesreau F Brooks Smith c S. Kvinsland Dzurick G Davis Krueger G Lange In order that there would be no grumbling over the choices, the judging committee gave their arguments that would justify each player's position on the squad—a squad that would warm the heart of any team manager. The champion Packer team rated three on the first five, while Daniels and Bartons each scored one. Viking Manor placed two of their men on the second along with one Packer, a Barton, and a Daniel boy. Ed Murphy was the only unanimous choice of the judges for one forward slot because of his speed and ability to make the necessary points. Ed is one of the best one-handed shots in many a moon, according to Coach Sam Carver, and he makes his shots count, being the leading scorer. He belongs to the Packer squad. Jeff Tesreau, the Barton man who was given the other forward position, is noted for his foul shooting and middle court long shots. Jeff is also a high scorer. The center slot was a toss-up between George Smith and Stener Kvinsland, but Smith won out because he was a more prolific scorer. Smith had an uncanny eye for shooting long shots, swishing many a point from past the middle court. He starred for Daniels the past season. The guard positions were well taken care of by the two Packer guards, Dzurick and Kreuger. Ernie had enough fight and scoring punch to beat Davis, the second choice. PPPPP

StStistfci show only one divorce for every seventy-five of the marriages between nien and women who meet in coeducational ihstitlitibri§. The cultural background, the cdmffiOn interests^ loyalties, and memories of young people who have worked arid played together, provide an excellent foundation for a happy home. We have become so accustomed to adverse comment on co-education. that it is a pleasant surprise to l rn that marriages for which it may be held responsible are, on the whole, successful. Is there anything in all thb varied phases of modern life which takes the place of happiness in the home? Considering the usual ratio at Normal schools, we think—well, we think. —W.S.N.S.— It would be much cooler sitting under the sprinkler down on the campus. —W.S.N.S.— In Russia, they do not bother about examinations for admission or promotion in school. The latter is based upon judgment of the collective work of the group of which the individual is a member; Students are trained lo ad co-opefdtively and collectively. John Dewey has said: " . . i only in a society based upon the co-operative principle can the ideals of educational reformers be adequately carried into operation." We wonder about it all, but— —W.S.N.S.— We wish we were sitting in the abide over on the knoll. —W.S.N.S.— Arid if you think teaching is a hard graft how, listen to this advertisement from ah early colonial paper: "Ran away: A servant man who followed the occupation of school master; much given to drinking and gambling." In the good old days of indentured servants, school masters brought a lower prce than weavers, tailors, and other tradesmen. —W.S.N.S.— Pardon us while we wipe the sweat from otfr brow. —W.S.N.S.— Speaking of tidverii ntentsi did you see the one that reads: WANTED 25,000,000 Men and 25,000,000 Women to Say These Three Words .."BUSINESS IS BETTER"..

Beri graduated in 1929, having been sports editor of the Viking for three quarters as well as business manager. He wrote the "Sports Brief" column by "Ham" nd also the column called "This Week a Year Ago." Ben aisd made two letters in athletics, playing, , while at Normal, football arid baseball, and turning but for track. He graduated from Washington State College a year ago and recently signed a contract to teach next fall in Anacortes. Golda Abel, his fiancee, was attending Normal this summer quarter, having graduated in 1929 also and has taught for two years. She is a popular student, and was assistant editor of the Klipsun in; 1929. She is recovering slowly in a local hospital. Funeral services for Hamilton were held Wednesday afternoon at the Aaron Light chapel in Mount Vernon. ;, What many hail as the" finest hike of the sufiffief took place last weekend when twenty-five students arid faculty members; leav by Mr. Her^ heft Ruckiriick, climbed tb the top of Mount Constitution; Oh Orcas Islahd.

On Mohawk The three-hour trip from Bellingham to the island was made on the Mohawk. The party disembarked at Olga, where it was joined by President and Mrs. G. H. Fisher. Though rather warm; the Hike was a leisurely one. Mr. E. A. Bond, while protesting that he had never before traveled the route, managed to forecast and point out interesting features in a way which caused his listeners to take note. Reached Crest Late Reaching the crest at 4:30 Saturday afternoon the party experienced a windy night. It i% rumored that Mr. Ruckmick was compelled to cut certain persons out of the trees, into which they had been blown and frozen. Sunday morning the party hiked seven miles down to Crescent Beach, and after lunching arid swimming there, rejoined the Mohawk at East Sound for the return trip.

A decidedly interesting assembly was held this morning when Roilo Ahsbh Tallcbtt, deari of Williams School of Expression arid Dramatic Art, in fthaca, N. Y., presented his interpretation of the drama, "Death Takes a Holiday." Adapted Play 'Ipeath Takes a Holiday" was adapted from Alberto Casella's script by Walter Ferris. The original was written in rollicking comedy style popular in Italy, and after many revisions reached its present form. The play pictures Death as a guest at ah itaiiari villa, where he seeks to enjoy the sensations of flesh and bibod people. He seeks also an explanation of man's fear of death. His host, who is aware of the identity bf his guest, is placed in a very disturbing position. Creates Tenseness By his own capacity of feeiing for the1 dramatic, Mr. Tallcott made the tenseness of the resultant situation real to his audience. His talent was appreciated. Mr; J. J. Handsaker,. associate secretary of the National Council for the Prevention of War, spoke Tuesday morning to the combined history classes of Mr. James Bever and Mr. Pelagius Williams on the abolition of war. Mr. Handsaker states that the world disarmament conference to be heid in 1932 is one of the critical events this generation will witness. Should disarmament be effected, it is his belief that the tax burden will be reduced, business will expand, and fear of war wiil be abolished. Discussing the cost of the World war, he said, it has been estimated the state bf Washington paid out in the neighborhood of $8,000,000 as its share of the expenditures. For generations citizens must continue to pay for this. Last month Mr. Handsaker spoke to students of the school in assembly. He is at present ,on his way to Denver, where the International Educational council will be held from July 27 to August 2. Five thousand delegates are expected to attend the council, among them many of the leading educators of the world.

It is one marked with uniqueness; an event that students of. interior schools would turn out for as near to a hundred per cent as possible, especially in the heat of summer. There are those that have previously made the trip to Victoria in individual parties, but there are features connected with a school trip, that cannot be duplicated. The*spirit of festivity will naturally prevail with so many going, while it will be great with a spacious deck for dancing in the evening with a five-piece orchestra "on deck." There will be sightseeing trips at quite nominal special rates, and Victoria can produce the spots of interest that will envelope the party of Normalites. . The fact of an en masse visit to the quaint city will attract those that went last year back to the same trip, and we note that many of these are the most interested in going. There will be some that will wish to go, but will be unable on account of financial matters, and yet it is brought to the students at an unusually low figure due to the large number expected. If many fail to sign up, it will mean that the Board will have to make up the difference and possibly do away with such an event at future times. According to the interest being manifested, this will hardly be the fate of the trip, though. Hie school is providing leaders that know the conditions and who will have everything planned out to bring the best results to the students. We sincerely advise all to go that can possibly make the necessary arrangements. CELEBRATING THE FOURTH It is easy to muse over the Fourth of July and think of the sentiment, in the present day individual mind, toward the early populace that gave what they did for our independence. That tenderness toward those that fired guns on the batde field reflects in us each time we hear a firecracker fired, or a torpedo thrown by some child of ten or twenty-five. Our baseball games, foot races, lodge celebrations, ensembles at beaches and playgrounds, dances, auto tours, closed stores and factories, all remind us dearly of what we have turned out to honor and commemorate. • The flags on the front of automobiles or on the tops of flag poles all have that additional influence on the Fourth, leading thoughts to the past. Not that we expect things to be different, nor do we ask for universal change, yet can we help getting a wee bit sarcastic when we accidentally stopped and thought of the recent Fourth of July in connection with the early days of the country. We are told that education In, our institutions of learning fails to inr duce students to think, which is no doubt true. Caught in the maelstrom of progress and the ruthless-ness of competition, overwhelmed by the responsibility of training for citizenship all the future hopes of the world, engrossed with delving, into the profound mysteries ofo science, theology, philosophy arid what not, is it any wonder that we lose our identity as individuals? But we do hear a remark occasionally which might indicate the glimmer of a thought in the realms of consciousness: A student suggested that as well as directing efforts and attention upon double Rec hours and the trip to Victoria, something also might be done by the student body toward securing order and attendance at assembly. iNo one will deny that something should be done about! .assembly. What is the matter with us? Would we countenance such disorder in our own schoolrooms? With attendance a matter of choice, we owe our good President nothing but the utmost respect and. loyalty). Whfen distinguished guests are waiting behind the curtain, why not consider his feelings, and for the sake of common decency and the dignity of our profession stop the uproar when he ascends the platform?' And can't we whisper during intermissions? As for leaving during a program, how can anyone be so ungracious and so discourteous as ip go. creaking down the stairs? If it adds nothing to our own satisfaction and peace of mind, then let's put on our good behavior |for President Fisher. ' --,- gt;• "• Where are you, student body? The double Rec hour and the trip to Victoria seem assured. That election was a marvelous demonstration of well oiled machinery. We'll say you can do it! Then why can't we stand unanimously behind President Fisher in the support of worthwhile assembly programs? Well filled halls and a half filled auditorium must be a disappointment to him as well as to our guests. Come on, student body! Let's go to assembly, and let's help to create an appreciative atmosphere. It is really such a simple individual affair. Can't we all be there, and can't we show our loyalty to our president by making him proud of us? Let's go! L. C. PASSION PLAY TO BE STUDENTS FURNISH CHORUS DIRECTED BY H. B. SMITH. ; Seven centuries of tradition and development and 400 years of inheritance are represented in the Freiburg Passion Play, of .Freiburg* Baden, Germany, which will be pro-, duced at the American theater \i-. gust 3, 4, and 5. The beautiful chorus music will be furnished, by Normal students under the dlrecr tlon of Harold B. Smith. The Pas-* sion Play is on its first American^ tour. Christns Inherits Role TI Adolf Fassnacht, who portrays the Chrlstus during His week of pas*j sion* suffering, death, and triumph, "man's And that awful accident— Just another instance of inhumanity to man." ;:Had it happened to persons in no {.way connected with this institution, to whom would it have meant lt;«K gt;re than a line or so of print fa^tlly read and quickly forgotten? j (Contto^frbrn pageOneX tomorrow. —W.S.N.S.— —W.S.NJ3.— Ki"Charts covering variations of tamfalLqnd temperature over long periods of time indicate that the 'figure* tend to fun highef than Overage for a period and then low-fer lt; for a while.

The morning after—guess weffl put our shirt back on. descent to portray the role. Since 1760 A. D. the role has been jealously guarded as a Fassnacht heritage, each successive generation striving to improve itself, in the part and bring a deeper spiritual and artistic significance to the presentation. Thirty-six Principals Mr. Fassnacht is supported by a company of thirty-six principals, members of the original German company which, eighteen months ago, began the American tour. Many of these have, in like manner, inherited their parts from preceding generations. Authentic costumes of the ancient Orient, elaborate lighting and scenic effects, and acting of rare power make the Passion Play a colorful pageant of magnificent proportions. Telling the age-old story of Jesus simply and sincerely, its theme carries an appeal to all kinds and classes of people. a Trained From Cradle The Freiburg players themselves are neither sentimental Idealists nor romantic wanderers. They are professional actors—professional in : lt; sense that is but little understood In America. Behind them is a tra-! ditlon of nearly 700 years. Trained from the cradle to their parts iri the Passion Play, their secular edfe-1 cation is made secondary to thec great" roles which they portray. Be-! fore them is a lifetime to be spent in the atmosphere of their great drama. Most of them'are scholars:' Nearly all are highly skilled musi-; clans.

Whew, not so good for superstitious men Normalites, if they take any stock in the laws and decrees of old. And then there is that rare trait of unity in the American people, that urges such large numbers of them to go out on the fourth of July and try to obtain that "Indian complexion" in a day, and then return and live ii glory, comparing sunburn agony with the neighbor. With the unusual event of seventy airplanes in Bellingham, we wouldn't be surprised if the Nurse's office is swamped caring for Normalites inflicted with sunburned tonsils. .—, o ' This came to us by unknown hands this week: DEAR EDITOR: Please!

Headline: "'Carver may use Notre Dame shift at Normal." Backed by the tricks that Coach Carver learned this summer under Schiss-ler at Corvallis, the Norsemen may go a good way towards the Tri- Normal title. The Stanford system that has served for these many years will go into the discard, along with the habit of losing games to Cheney and Ellensburg. Maybe the ghost pf Knute Bockne will help Carver to the championship. Anyhow, men that were caught flat-footed behind the line last year can practice getting caught in the middle of a shift for the new season.

Women on the side lines faint and strong men turn their heads* After the bodies are taken away, the game goes on with a new batch of victims. They ought to put some sand on the floor and throw in a handful of swords. It's fun to watch the games of the city tennis tonjrname^tt that are played on the Normal courts. Even for the person who knows nothing about the game, watching these people work and—shall we say perspire? —perspire in the hot sun makes you satisfied to be a kibitzer.

According to the best dope on hand, Paul Jessup is slated for the Olympic team in the discus event if he doesn't break an arm before the events take place. His win in the A. A.

Each girl brought something to cook over a camp fire to give her practice in camp cookery. The girls also did some hand craft work such as making utensils which can be used in cooking over a camp fire For many of the girls, it was the first time they had done any outside cooking which proved to be quite a novelty. This trip was taken to benefit especially those who missed the outing trip to Sinclair Island. However, the picnic was well attended by members of the .class. o EXTENSION DEPT.

SHAFFER'S WIN FROM PANSIES ON MONDAY Although not /necessarily a flashy upset, Louis Shaffer's entry in the Men's Intramural Basketball league pulled a surprise in defeating Wali ters' Pansies, first half champs, by a 22-10 score, in a game played last Monday night. The second game found Hunnicutt's Netted Gems taking an easy nod over Nichols' toss-ers, 35-14. A Little Slow The first game of. the evening was slightly inclined to be slow, with each team taking about an equal amount of shots, with the winners dropping the greater share in. They slowly piled up a }ead that ran 9-0, with little of the half remaining to be played. Fouls committed gave the Purple Pansies a chance to convert a few and they brought the score to 11-4 at the end of the first half, but no field goals were scored by the losers. The second half found things running practically the same as before. With the score at 11-8 the losing forces were reduced to four men, and the latter part of the half was spent in much stalling on the part of Shaffer's henchmen. McClurken Scores McClurken had. his eye on the basket and after dropping in three moderately long ones at the start of the game, continued until he had scored a game total of 14. Walters made all but three of his team's total, netting 7 points. Nichols' team, in the second game, got to working well toward the latter part of the game and was able to make a far better percentage of shots. It was behind 16-4 at the halfway mark, but made ten in the last half, while the "Spud champs" shopped around enough to raise their total to 35.

Club Outstanding This club, Which was one of the outstanding student Organizations during the Winter quarter, plans to continue its! work this summer. A week-end party is one of the events on the program later in the season. At a recent meeting, the following officers were elected for this quarter: president, Bert Cole; vice-president, Edith Jenkins; secretary, Irene Larsen; treasurer, Carlyle Jones; sergeant-at-arms, Harold Smith. — o- New students living at Davis Hall this quarter are: Mabel Nelson, Or-tha Young, Helen Sherkles, Alma Donnelly, Elsie Berglund, Mildred McDonald. Mae Tracey, Frances Christensen, and Mary Schafer. o-—= While looking frantically up and down the halls of Alma Mater in desperate attempt to become inter-viewingly "sociable with some" inr nocent bystander, we were attracted by a lazy looking jrouth, wiib, fe were told, was the business manager of the Northwest Viking. We waylayed him, and, a few minutes later we sat him, struggling and sputtering, in a stiff-backed chair and started questioning with merciless rapidity. Poached Eggs He told us thfit his name was Jack Greaves and that he was born in Manitoba, Canada; adding knowingly, "Where men are men, and the winters are darned cold!" Then he went on in ft listless itiorio-tone, "i am English, my age* is 2tl years arid 4 Months. I am tfe€, white, and unattached, and I cook my own breakfast, which sorisists of two piached eggs on toast." He stopped, quite out of breath. "And your hobby," we asked kindly. He breathed deeply and then said, "Why my hobby is reading books and writing poetry. I am also interested in photography." Lends Bit Mr. Greaves has been at Normal for thirteen quarters and he expects to graduate at the end of the summer with a four-year, diploma. (The Normal finding ho, other plausible means of riddance). His ambition along with the 7,000 others, is to be a school-teacher, and likewise a great man. In parting, he handed us an example of his inspiring poetry, which rari as follows: . ;; What have I done That I should be, !| Exhalted by p Publicity? .'jf; And we smilngly tucked it amoifg the scraps of our scraprbook.-;•:; i "A delightful town in a delightful place blessed with a wonderful I n mate. 1" is what Miss Myrtle Garhes has to say of our fair city, n jp Work in East %. Miss Carnes' work has been in the East, chiefly in New York City, iahd she finds a great difference in many tilings. "People in this part of the country do hot seem so rushed. They have time to live. There is hot that tenseness in the atmosphere which is found in New York." "As a teacher I can notice a difference in the children. I have handled, children, both in California and in tile East, but never have seen each poised, icaim youngsters as those with whom I come in contact in Bellingham. I would say that this is caused chiefly by the peaceful atmosphere arid beautiful surroundings in which they: live." Rain Lucky According to Miss Carries, we are even lucky to have the rain. "Rain is conducive to study and rest. The people of this town should be especially intellectual, and I can imagine no place more ideal for a school. With its climate and location, Bellingham should become one of the leading teacher-training centers in the United States." 2-PIECE KNlf WttS In Pastel Colors Only $1,95 Here are some inexpensive, yet very good looking knit suits that will serve you most satisfactorily through the sunimer.

XXXVI—NO. 19 WASHINGTON STATE NORMAL SCHOOL, BELLINGHAM, WASHINGTON Friday, February 19, 1937 Live And Learn -By Don Gooding. Jumpin' fishes! When the House of David's bearded wonders departed from Bellingham last Tuesday they left on the wings of a mighty tumult. During the night this mighty tumult got a little out of hand and "the winds blew and the rains descended." By the time Wednesday morning had put in an appearance, it was possible to go wading in the new gym, and swimming in the deeper spots. So violent was the breeze that it had .blown through windows, walls, and what have. you. No damage resulted. Under the caption of "Pickpocket Gets No Mercy," a fact concerning the angelicness of wayward cops was revealed this week to a conn-try of wondering victims of legal entanglements. Some industrious pickpocket in a rash frame of mind stole a rosary and two-bits from a New York policeman, poor man. When the culprit was presented to the presiding magistrate, that lawful gentleman explained the seizure by stating, ^Yon have no right to steal prayer beads from a police officer. You see, that is his only way to get to heaven." So cops really do go to heaven, after all, eh? * * * • * In trend with the times!

";" '-''• '*' * ' » Vv,'"*" *"'" For two hours a thoroughly impressed audience listened thoughtfully to Nobel prize winner (1922) Dr. Niels Bohr labor over the intricacies of "Light and Life" in Toronto, Canada. Two hours after, the start, not a person could repeat a word of what had been spoken. However, to make up for this embarrassing deficiency the listeners agreed that Dr. Bohr was indeed a great man and that even if they didn't hear him it was a privilege just to see his "speech." Poor acoustics was blamed for sending his words bouncing from wall to wall without allowing them to reach the ears of the 300 spectators. 4 * 4 * * Down in gay old Rio (not Grande) they celebrate things in a Big way. This particular occasion started out as the three-day Carnival Carioca, but as merriment waxed hotter and hotter it turned into a regular brewers' brawl.

Vikings Face Tough Foes On Road Trip Cheney, Eilensburg Games Will Decide Tri-normal Winner; Cheney Is Favorite Cheney Has New Gym Lappenbusch Predicts Hard Battles From Both Teams An exciting and rough basketball game went the way of Eilensburg last night as they threshed out a 46 to 31 victory over the Vikings from Bellingham. In spite of improvement in the foul shooting department, the Vikings were unable to hit the basket often enough to make up the deficit created by Boersma who sunk 12 for Eilensburg. Dziedzic countered with seven for the Vikings, while Carver and Nelson were only able to put in six apiece. The half-time score was 24-16 in favor of the winners. Six Delegates Attend Youth Meeting Friedman, High, Toms, Seelye, Kluge, Byl Attend Qlympia Conference Roosevelt Supports Bill Provisions Will Double Work Given NYA Students By Dick Fowler Having played Eilensburg last night in the first game of their El-lensburg- Cheney trip, the Western Washington Vikings take on Coach Red Reeve's Savages tomorrow evening, February 20, in the newly dedicated Cheney gymnasium. In previous games, the low-hanging girders of the Cheney gym have given the Vikings no little trouble, keeping them at a decided disadvantage, but on the new floor this handicap has been removed. Owing to the fact that there is no hotel in the town of Cheney, Coach;Charles F. Lappen-busck's squad is staying in _(Cohtinued on Page Four) '"•'vr'^ ~y~ o" ''."•*" " " ' "' Scholarship Group Initiates Banquet Held at Leopold Hotel Thursday Evening At the initiation banquet of the Scholarship society last night, the following six Normal students were taken into the honorary: Kathryn Hatch, Patricia Green, Margaret Perkins, Winfield Leach, Clayton Knittel, and Percy Maddux. The banquet was held at 6:30 in the Rose room of the Leopold hotel. A yellow color scheme predominated in the decorations. Reviving an old custom, each initiate defended a thesis and was bombarded with questions by the other guests and faculty members. Each new member also gave a brief autobiography. The Scholarship society has a limited membership. Those who are in school at present are Alfred Brandt.. Loreen Hovan, Beverly Holiday, Ethel Ross, Zenne Burrough, Jim Martin, Marguerite Winterhalter, Jim Barnhart, Lynn Hughes, and Virginia Bever. Miss Emma Erick-son is the faculty adviser. Among the faculty members present at the banquet were: Mrs. C. H. Fisher, Miss Ruth Piatt, Miss Nora B. Cummins, Miss Lucy Kangley, Mr. and Mrs. Herbert Ruckmick, and Mr. Thomas F. Hunt. Interested in passing the Emergency Youth Bill that was presented to the State House of Representatives this session of legislature, a delegation of students were selected from the Western Washington college to be sent to Olympia for the forthcoming conference to be held Sunday, February 21. The delegates elected were, Ralph Friedman, chairman, Bill Byl, Harry Kluge, Warren Toms, .ton High and Don Seelye. Funds for the pilgrimage were solicited from students and teachers interested in the youth movement. Provisions of the bill provide for more N.Y.A. money in this state, by the process of the state of Washington matching all Federal N.Y.A. assistance dollar for dollar. At present, the Federal government is financing all appropriations of this kind. The bill would also prohibit any cuts in the present salaries. It also provides that students may obtain such jobs without their families being recipients of relief. Saturday noon the local delegates will leave for Seattle, where they plan on staying for the night, and will proceed Sunday morning to Olympia, where they will register for the conference at 10:30. The conference proper is scheduled for 11.00 a. m. After lunch, greeting will be made the delegates by prominent state officers, religious, labor, and youth leaders of the state. The conference will come to a ^closp^vidth the election of committees and the drawing up of resolutions. In support of this type of legislation, President Franklin D. Roosevelt said, "To the American Youth of all parties I submit a* message of confidence: Unite and challenge! It is for the new generation to * * * give strength and spirit * * * to our national life. Lewisohn Featured By Vanadis Four of Ludwig Lewisohn's books were reviewed at the regular meeting of the Vanadis Bragi club in the Edens hall club room Monday evening. "Up Stream," an autobiography, was reported on by Margaret Bertrand. This was followed by a review of "The Last Days of Shylock" by Jeanne Richards. Elizabeth Cardwell discussed "This People" and the program was concluded by a report on "Stephen Escott" by Frances Daley. The reports were followed by a general discussion of the . books. The theme Mr. Lewisohn expounds is the return of the Jews to Palestine because of racial prejudices. From prejudices against the Jews the conversation turned to race discrimination in general against any minority race. Our own problem of the Oriental and the Negro were touched upon. Maid of Salem Thrills Scribe; Is Veteran of Radio By Don Gooding Devastation in the person of lovely Mildi Roberts, concert violinist, struck a surprised Normal assembly last Friday noon. Miss Roberts, a native of the Northwest, born in Salem, Oregon, was interviewed by a slightly stunned reporter who managed to retain sufficient equipoise to enable him to glean a scattering of facts concerning her rather extensive career. According to her mother, the petite violinist began playing when she was seven years old. After becoming proficient in the art, she journeyed abroad to take up more advanced studies. That was about, seven years .ago. "Several years later while still in Europe," she said, remarking on the royal blood coursing through her veins, "we purchased from the king of Saxony the violin I used today. The king was a little bankrupt at the time and was compelled to auction off considerable of his property.. . so we got the old family violin." After making her debut under the tutelage of Henri Martoux, of the Dresden Conservatory in Germany, Miss Roberts returned to New York, where she has resided for the past three years. She has crashed the radio field, too, having displayed her prowess via a national hook-up from Montreal, and; several times from the studios of KOIN, of Portland, Oregon. It seems that most of her musical ability has descended from her mother's side; where her golfing, tennis, and riding interests came from she didn't say. Bach, Mozart, and Beethoven are both lucky and talented enough to be highly es^- teemed by the vivacious Miss Roberts/ • . Raya Gorbousova, Cellist Russian Cellist To Appear Here Monday Evening; Student Tickets Will Admit Raya Garbousova To Play In College Auditorium on Washington's Birthday Anniversary Has Varied Career Civic Music Association Sponsors Concert, Third of Series Raya Garbousova, gifted young artist, is considered one of the finest virtuosos of the cello appearing on the concert platform today. She has had two brief seasons in this country and remarkable success has followed in her wake. She will appear in recital before the Civic Music association in the Normal School aduitorium next Monday evening. She will perform on her splendid Gofrilla cello, valued at $16,000. Miss Garbousova enjoys playing before American audiences and likes American cities very much. Valkyries To Dance In Leopold Elsahelle Cruttendear^pjppints....

Meeting the challenge of the above statements, some Washington legislators drew up House Bill No. 168. The mam provision in the resolution calls for the state of Washington to match, dollar for dollar, the Federal NY A assistance now proffered students in search of higher education. Other clauses in the bill specify that the State Superintendent of Public Instruction shall direct the administration of the money; that hourly rates of pay shall be no lower than at present; and that assistance shall not be limited to students whose parents are recipients of relief. This measure is of vital importance to every student and promoter of education. It would provide not only a guard for students, to fall back upon if circumstances demand, but many persons, at present unable to attend college, would have the opportunity to further their education. It would double the number now receiving aid from the Federal government. Six delegates from Western Washington college will attend a meeting with delegates from other schools urging the state legislature to enact the bill into law. These delegates have the hearty endorsement of students and faculty at WWC. (When they come to the point of making cash contributions, they must approve.) So to the state legislature—PASS BILL NO. 168. Movie Review By Lucille Lee "The Big Broadcast of 1937," with the very specially selected cast «f Jack Benny, Georgie Burns and Gracte Allen, Bob Burns, Martha Raye, Benny Goodman and his orchestra, and Shirley Boss—the feminine lead. They're all yours for one paid admission to the AVALON—any time from Saturday until Tuesday. With the broadcasters is "Isle of Fury"—a thrilling story of South sea adventure by the author of "Of Hainan Bondage." "Lloyds of London"—the picture the world is waiting to see! The one picture you can never forget! Thrill to the fiery, unforgettable performance of Tyrone Power, Jr., as the man branded "traitor! liar! cheat!" because he fought for a looe denied him. The romance . . •. the intrigue . . . the adventure . . . the world is waiting for! Direct to you from its sensational $2.00 runs in New York and Hollywood. With the new romantic sensation, Tyrone Power, are Freddie Barlhol-mew, Madeleine Carroll, and Sir Cuy Standing. On the same bill are Victor Moore and Helen Broderick in "We're on the Jury." Both shows are at the MT. BAKER—Sunday through Wednesday. Campi Coast to Coast tJiv.ture him small boy with a hatchet in his hand, a brave officer suffering almost unedurable physical and men-his country the face of George a man grown old in the service of his country, the face of George Washington will always be an inspiration to Americans—an inspiration * men can never quite uc *opiaced. A great character with a great vision was this first American, and although he may be criticized by those who attribute his success to family, position, or mere luck, Washington is a man who would have been great any place; at any time—truly of "the stuff of heroes". 'Believe It, Why Not' By' Green A ball in the hoop is worth two in the bush (whiskers to you) was the belief of our hard-working basketball team last Tuesday night. "Take a lesson from those Bellingham high yell-dukes," is our theme song this week. Those three lads have rhythm, timing, and smooth execution. And incidentally, in behalf of our own yell-kings, those high school leaders have the whole-lunged support of their student body. The students know the yells and they howl them put. It isn't too late in the season yet for us to get behind our leaders (all three of them at once, we'd like) and show the local fans that we aren't too far behind our younger brothers. And then there's always the weather. Bet Mr. Dack is mighty glad Were out of the drifts and down to earth again, even if it is a trifle soupy. Dr. Alfred Nielson, professor of economic geography at New York university, has an aversion for chewers of gum. Here is how he classifies them: "There are five types of gum chewers. First, the type which chews with a gentle, oscillating motion, like a contented cow. Next, the type which chews to the rhythm of Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers. Thirdly, the kind known as the 'railroad chewer.' They produce noises like the 'clackily-click' of a train. "Then comes two types of synchronizers. First, those who synchronize their mouths with their pencils, and, secondly, those who time the movements of their jaws with the speed of the lecturer." There's too much emphasis upon the classics, particularly the Kentucky Derby and the World's Series. And do w« have them this dumb?

The editor of the Stanford Daily condemned the proposal of a Miliary Ball queen in his editorial comment which appeared in the university paper.

"Modem pictures are not pleasing to the majority of people but we owe it to ourselves to become acquainted with them," stated Miss Hazel Breakey of the Art department. Pictures illustrating Miss Breakey's viewpoint are now on display in room 304. They have been reproduced from paintings of living artists and will be shown simultaneously in fifty-eight sections of the United States. Twelve of these picture facsimiles have been the subject oi study for the Bellingham Delphian study club, which held a meeting here on Thursday morning. Miss Breakey gave a short talk on the interpretation of these works from an artist's standpoint. l i f e magazine has published part of this series in a recent issue. Of unusual note are the neutral cloth mountings which have been substituted for more expensive frames. The Art department has agreed to purchase one of the most famous pictures from each group. They have selected "The Senate" by Willi am Gropper and "Deer Isle Islet" by John Marin. The co-operation of the students will be appreciated in making the third choice. New Britain College Professor Requests Viking "In compliance with the requests received from Dr. Herbert E. Fowler, of Teachers college, New Britain, Conn., a former Normal faculty member, the Northwest Viking style book, work books, and outlined test material. of the newswriting classes will be sent to him," states Mars.

In spite of all his greatness, George Washington's memory has never been able to live down the episode of the cherry tree.

WASHINGTON Friday, February 19, 1937 Sport News SOUKUP, Editor SOUKIE SAYS . ... . Whiskered Men Triumph Smooth Viking Machine Nearly Upsets Visitors; Show Off Comedy Looking around for some dope for my column, I bumped into Winston Sanders, who suggested thai I give the intramurals a break, so here goes! Maybe Sandy just wanted to see his name in print, but nevertheless, we have to give him plenty of credit. Sanders guided his Viking Manor squad to the first half A title and was going strong in the second half until he rah across Don Turnbull's band of huskies. Turnbull picked up a few husky j gridiron men, threw in a tennis star along with brother "Poose" Kvins-land and banded them together under the ignominous name of Meat Packers. The Butchers proceeded to cut up everything in the A league, Sandy's outfit included. The Packers meet Viking Manor sometime next week in a game that will decide who is to be the title-holder of the A league crown. I am inclined to favor the Meatshop gang, but not so, Sandy. "I have never put a full team on the floor this half, and I'm thinking the Packers better start packing," was his remark. It's a lucky thing for Cheney and EUensborg that the schedule was so arranged that they did not meet the Vikings last Tuesday night The Norse were hotter than the town marshal's pistol, but of course they could not expect a victory over the much experienced longbeards. Art Stoelting may be six foot eleven, but give me Nelson any day. Oyer on the bulletin board in the boys' locker room, Sam Carver has posted a letter from Norman Kunde, of the University of Washington, asking for a volleyball game with the Normal team. There being no such team, Sam, of course, had to refuse the offer. The shame of it is: Carver tried to organize a volleyball squad last fall, but the idea was laughed out of school. Though this sport is not popular among the boys, especially in this institution, it should furnish plenty of interest, with the idea that intercollegiate competition could be had. Disappointing, yet comical, the Benton Harbor House of Davids clowned out a 36-28 win over a much-improved Viking squad Tuesday night before an anxious and overflowing crowd. The bewhiskered basketiers opened the game as though it would be a "one-reel" comedy throughout, but were soon stopped and made to settle down as Coach Lappenbusch unearthed one of his best clicking combinations of the season. Phair, Dziedzic, Vandergriend, Fox, and Nelson, by smooth passing and accurate shooting ran the score up to 10-1. Davids Score at Ease However, the Davids, through the smooth, lazy, and accurate efforts of shuffling Art Stoelting, 6 foot 11 center, forged ahead, 16-14, at the end of the half. During the second half the ex-college stars increased their lead at their leisure, exhibiting at intervals flashes of trick passing and dribbling. Their favorite play was run from a football formation, consisting of a pass from center and a sweeping end dribble with a four-man running defense. Packers Second Quarter Champions; Co-op, Frosh Ties B League Those men hired to play Class A intramural ball by Don Turnbull for the Meat Packers have done it. They have gone out to the gym a couple of times a week, put on their gym paraphernalia, and have been put in a trance by manager Turn-bull. As a result they won every game of the second half and will begin the playoff with Viking Manor, the first half winner, on Tuesday for the 1936-37 championship. The second game will be on Friday and the third, if necessary, will be the following Monday. Wednesday the Packers packed up a nice 38-16 win over the second place Bartons five. This display of terrific offensive power might make things hopeless for the Manor boys, but if man- . ager Winston Sanders has anything to say about it, they won't give up without a struggle. Ed Murphy, the meaty five's most consistent scorer, along with Fred Kruger and the Kvinsland brothers, will be tough to halt. On the other hand, Manor has a bunch of fighters, too. Chase, Mickel, Turk, Kluge, and Dwelley are all good players and will give the Packers a real battle. In other games played, the meat men won a 2-0 forfeit over the Daniels five last Friday. The latter team used George Mills, who was declared ineligible for play. The Buttercups were given a forfeit win over the dropped W club. Viking Manor beat the Bartons beanery, 14-11, in the preliminary to the House of David-Viking game Tuesday evening., Chase, with 6 markers for the winners, took high point honors. Leading at the half time by the score of 19 to 11, the Co-ops went down in defeat under a last half avalanche of baskets by the fast breaking Frosh. The game Wednesday was a touch and go battle with the final score slightly balanced in favor of the Frosh 25 to 26. There will be a return match between these two teams next Tuesday to decide the second quarter championship of the B league. The Co-ops won out in the finals last quarter. If the Frosh win Tuesday they will have to play off the championship for both quarters. The Frosh were hopelessly outclassed in the first half but lost their basket shyness in the second half when they made 15 tallies to the storekeeprs' 6. Ed Angel played his usually rough game with Ries also showing spirited defense tactics. Fouls were numerous on both sides and Sam Carver had a hard time calling them all. Ries, the long geared center of the Co-op, shared high point honors with Cronkhite of the Frosh. Dick Fowler and Ed Hudson starred on defense for the winners and also turned in a good offensive threat, Hudson scoring 5 and Fowler 4. The losers had two good scorers in Richards and Dick Hudson.

Vikings Face Tough Linfield Five Oregon Team High Scoring Bunch; Play Here Monday, Tuesday By Ed Johnston Unfleld College Wildcats, the one and only team which marred the recent Oregon road trip for the Vikings, are due here for a two-game series next Monday and Tuesday. WWC lost to the Wildcats, 53-52, in one of the most exciting and best-played games ever witnessed by the Linfield backers. So intense was the play near the end, and so uproariously noisy was the hilarious shouting and stamping crowd that the timekeeper's horn was drowned out. It was fully 10 seconds before the entanglement was stopped, during which time the Vikings slipped in a basket, leaving many goggle-eyed fans to go home believing that the Vikings had won. Other impressive victories have been won over PLC, El-lensburg, Oregon Normal, and two over St. Martins. Linfield is an extremely high-scoring quintet, .compiling over 900 points in 19 games, which equals 47 plus points a game average in any man's PPPPP
