The Norsemen meeting primarily will be to make plans for the club dance on February 5. Committees will be appointed to work on the affair. Since Don Neal, Norseman president, has been inducted into military service, a new president may be elected. • Dorothy Miller, AWS vice-president, has stated that the student assembly for the women students probably will consist of a freshman talent assembly which is an annual affair. In this program the freshman plan and present the whole assembly. Pat Scott and Zo-sia Nowagrowski, freshman representatives to the AWS commission will be in charge. Christian Fellowship Meet Wednesday • Of interest was the meeting of the College Christian Fellowship, Wednesday noon.

String Quartet To Appear • Western Washington College of Education invites the students and the public to a concert of the Music Teachers string quartet to be given Sunday, January 17, at 3:15 p. m., in the Campus school auditorium. The quartet will consist of Arthur Thai, first violin, well known player from Bellingham; Robert Chisholm, second violin, violin instructor from Lynden; John Monroe, viola, high school instructor from Femdale; and Don Bu-shell, cello, WWC faculty member. The following program will be presented. "Quartet in F Major," Opus 74, No. 2 (Haydn); "Quartet in F Major," Opus 125, No. 1 (Schubert). The concert promises to be of special interest to both students and the public. This group has held together for three years as a string quartet. Mr. Bushell states that the purpose of the concert is to make the public quartet conscious before the Budapest String Quartet arrives, and before gas rationing and the war cut off the possibilities of having any more concerts soon. This is the first program to be given in the new Campus school auditorium that is complimentary to the public. Subscription Fees Still Accepted • This week's drive to send the paper to servicemen ended Wednesday night after a two day drive. Not coming up. to the expectations of the AWS committee in charge, some other attempt will have to be made . to obtain funds. Due to the large amount- of students leaving school, the amount of subscriptions have been increased. Last quarter 49 subscriptions were sent to former students who were in the service. Many letters have been received from these servicemen expressing their gratitude and appreciation. GRUBB NEW NORSE CLUB PRESIDENT • With Don Neal leaving this week, the Norsemen's office will be taken over by Byron Grubb. None of the plans for the Norsemen's dance, are definite except the date. "The dance wilt take place on Friday, February 5, but the. place and the band are indefinite," was word given by Don Packard, co-chairman of the affair. More news .. will be avialable next week after committeemen Packard, McPherson, Rellly, and Brown meet. VOL XLI.I—NO. 14 Western Washington College/Bellingham, Washington Friday, January 15, 1943. Journalist Presents Illustrated Talk • Deane Dickason, noted authority, gave an illustrated talk on his journeys to the Dutch East Indies, and Southwest Pacific in assembly this morning. Mr. Dickason, a world traveler, formerly was a city editor for a large Denver paper; but abandoned this position so he could travel around the world as an author, journalist, and expert photographer. What's Cooking? By NEAL and SMITH • It is our purpose to try and satisfy the need for a weekly jour- , nalistic review by publishing a column to coyer those events and situations which should be of interest to students of WWC, but which have not been given due consideration and of which the students seem completely unaware. A small proportion of our student body has shown by its presence that the 1943 edition'Of the Viking basketball squad officially opened its Winco season in the college gym last week. We pause at this point to remind the students that their student body tickets entitle them to free admission to all home games and that the gym is located direetly adjacent to the campus. As it seems difficult -for most of the students to find their way to the gym on the nights scheduled for home games, we, the editors of this column, will gladly take it upon ourselves to furnish adequate guide service. If that is not sufficient, we will paint arrows from all the organized houses and all the exits of Edens hall,, on all possible pathways leading to the .gym. It is our hope that the enthusiastic rooters, who to date have seen fit to do ali their rooting within the. confines of their respective halls will take our hint and find their way to the gym this evening to witness for the first time, a home game. Believe us, dear inmates of Edens hall, members of the Valky^ rie club, and friends, it is a thrill. Why not try it just once. If you try our suggestion and are disapr pointed with the results, please let us know and we will give you our (Continued on Page Four) Local Club Hears College Registrar • Dr. Merle S.

Second Wihko Double Header Features Viks vs. Wildcats Preparing To Meet Powerful Wildcats in Winco Feature; Lappys Vitamin "Boys" Experience Vigorous Work-out • Another double-header basketball game is on tap this Friday and. Saturday nights with the Vikings playing host to the Central Washington Wildcats. The Wildcats are the only team so fat this season to tangle with the powerful Washington Huskies and emerge victorious. The game was played on the Wildcats home floor a few days before the Christmas holidays. Carmody was high for the Wildcats with 11points, and Gilbertson was high for the Huskies with 13 counters. ' ' .«" Clipper Carmody is the ace for- . ward of the Wildcats, as i Nygard. Wiseman is center and Adams and Howard are the guards, filling out the starting line-up. Carmody is one of the best players back this year for. Central. Wiseman, the tallest player on the team, is an excellent shot and is noted for his backboard ability. The Viks this week have been scrimmaging for the forthcoming game. Monday Lappy put the boys through a vigorous work-out. Wit-tren has been bothered by a slight infection in his knee due to floor burns suffered during a turnout, but is expected to be ready to play this week-end. Chuck has been working the team on defensive and offensive plays. The team's percentage of shots made .as compared with those attempted is very favorable and Lappy is working on that point so to keep up the good rating. Lappy stressed the importance of a zone defense and is thinking of using it against the Wildcats. The tentative starting line-up for the Viks is: Lowery, Richardson, Ludwick, Strankmah, and Wlttren. The supervarsity will play a preliminary game each night at 7 o'clock, and the main game will start at 8 p. m. Immediately after Friday night's game the WRA is sponsoring a carnival rec hour in the small gym. All the proceeds Trip To Wenatchee Made By Bushell •"Snow covered the ground," was the comment made Tuesday by Mr. Donald Bushell upon his return from performing in Wenatchee. His first cello performance "was a half hour program given for the Wenatchee high school. This was followed in the afternoon by a full program performed in the American Legion hall for the regular meeting of the Ladies Musical club. The program consisted -of: Sonata (Eckels); Concerto (Bach-Paitigor-sky); Variations on Original Theme (Romberg); and a group of modern French numbers. He was accompanied by Don Smith of Wenatchee. SERVICE ROSTER NOT COMPLETED • According^to Faye Stiles, chair-, man of the service roster committee, plans have not yet been completed for the roster.; This list will consist of the names of former students now in the armed services. The committee assisting the chairman is made up of Irene Chet-wood, Jeanhette Bright, and Shirley Parsells. * Plans are to be completed at their next meeting.

The honored guest and the rest of the gang then proceeded to the WWC-PLC basketball game. Mary Jean Brandstrom is leaving WWC to transfer to Washington State college where she will take up interior decoration. Terrace House Goes in for Stationery Although Christmas was nearly a month ago, each one of us is still wondering how each one of us happened to give each one of us the same kind of stationery. It seems that each one of us didn't know what each one of us was giving each one of us, so each one of us was very surprised when each one of us opened each one of us's presents and saw that each one of us had given each one of us.—Oh, heck! Sis Boom Sezzer Dezzer— Hospice Inn Yells for Bezer 'Plans to develop an enthusiastic and peppy cheering section at all home basketball games are being developed by Hospice members. Every member of Hospice who does not go home will be at tonight and tomorrow night's game, anxious to yell like —: Hospice extends this challenge to all organized houses. We will be sittting in a group at tonights game and we. are willing to wager that we give more and better yells "than any other group, including Edens hall. (If any of the members of said establishment show up at the game.) (|This is Hospice's comment not ye plde editor's.) Edwards Enrollment Decreases After a prolonged absence of news for "ye paper" Edwards hall again is in the limelight. The enrollment of Edwards hall has somewhat decreased this quarter. We have a total of seven scholars la our house. With the lack of men, however, we are still carrying on. Our bowling team took two.games from the independents to go back into a tie for first place with the WWCollegian team (plug). On Tuesday night they dropped a close 25 to 27 basketball game to the Hospice Inn team. Guests over the week-end were George McGuire • and Bill Windsheimer, former resi-idents of Edwards and former WWC students. "Red" McGuire has just returned from the Solomons. C. S.

Tour Suggestion? A week ago Wednesday the Harlem Globe Trotters played to a full house against mediocre opponents at the high school. The following Friday and Saturday the Vikings entertained PLC in two fast games and even the students, who get in free, were conspicuous by their absence. What do we have to do? Give away dishes or have a Bingo game between halves! The Huskies certainly swamped the Wildcats in their return engagement at the U W pavilion . . .

Sportsmanship is to hold the spotlight in the second half of intramural basketball play with five teams: Daniels, Edwards, Hospice Unknowns, and Renegades tangling into each other with a new gusto. The winner of this half will qualify to meet last half's champs, Daniels hall. Hospice Proves a Threat Sparked by former Naval Cadet Art Stenson, with eight counters, Hospice proved themselves a real threat in second half competition. A real thriller brought up the curtain as Hospice edged out Edwards in the dying minutes of the ball game by a score of 27 to 25. Ed .Hickenbottom fared well for the losers with 10 points.

Out in front with a 10 to 3 lead at half time, the boys coasted in with a comparatively easy victory. Cooper dished in nine points for the victors, while Alderson led the losers with six.

In both games the Viks ran up great margins early in the first half, and gained leads which the hapless Lutherans could never overcome, although they outscored the Vikings in the second half of the opener by one point. Strankman Surprises The scores of the games tell the story very well. The tally of points in the first game was 50 to 37, and the last one was won by a 46 to 30 count. Lappy was able to use a total of fourteen players in each game, so plenty of the boys saw action, and gained experience that will help them a great deal against Ellensburg tonight. Wittren led the scoring Friday with 15 markers and Ludwick tallied 13 on Saturday night. Strankman, who was the surprise of the series, earned a starting berth for the second game on the virtue of his brilliant performance on Friday evening when he made 10 points. He also did well the second battle by making eight points. Ludwick had the high series total of 21 markers, while Wittren had 19 and tied with Paul Polillo of the Lutherans. Supervarsity Wins The Supervarsity won both preliminaries against service teams. Ralph Major led with 11 on Friday night, as they edged out the Goodman-coached Coast Guard, 42 to 41. Jack Duranceau and Bobby Ludwick combined with 12 points each on Saturday night to swamp the Filter Center by a 66 to 23 count. The line-ups.

He is undoubtedly one of the hardest working men on the squad when he is on the floor, although he doesn't get a great many points. In high school, he was second high scorer in his senior year and also an all-conference berth winner the same year. He won his letter in baseball as an outfielder as well as two years in basketball. He is another one of the Army Air corps reservists, and like the rest of the reserves is waiting to be called in soon. By the way, any of the non-tee totalers that ever visit the Grays Harbor district are invited to visit our personality's "rich uncle," who has quite a reputation around some of the organized houses on the hill.

To the members of the pep band, our sincere congratulations for helping the opening series get off to a good start by supplying enough peppy music to break the monotonous silence created by the cheering section.

In the past few months there has been a great deal of grumbling by certain members of tne Legislature. They are grumbling because they think that ASB President Jerry Baker has been removing many of their responsibilities and placing them in the hands of hisCabinet. Baker has been striving to make the Legislature a more efficient body by allowing them toconcentrate their abilities and duties, rather than having their hands in every item of businessconcerning ASB. Baker is trying to reconstruct ASB to make it a better organized and morefunctional body. One of the President's ideas is to meet occasionally in an informal manner to discusssome of the problems of student government. He called such a meeting last Saturday to discussparliamentary law, structure of ASB, duties and responsibilities of ASB members, relationship of ASBto clubs and other organizations, academic and social discipline and joint student-f a c u i t ycommittees. The meeting was well publicized, and members of the Legislature were urged to attend,along with Cabinet members, Union Board members and representatives of AWS and Norsemen. Theattendance of the meeting was apalling. AWS and Norsemen each had a representative, twomembers of the Union Board, and some members of the Cabinet were present. However, just sixmembers of the Legislature came. One or two others had excuses for not being present. Theabsence of members Bob Burgoyne, Joel Everett and Gary Gerhard was conspicuous. The meetingwas, for the most part, a success. The informal atmosphere greatly enhanced communication ofideas and thought-provoking discussion. Perhaps Baker and his ideas are better understood, andperhaps there will be less grumbling. However, three members, doubtlessly, will go on grumbling. P |The Marshall U Plan H R by Marshall Â§mBk Bronson Last week I intimated that there seem to besome questions about rules on our campus. To be sure, we have one pertaining to almost anythingthat could happen and perhaps some things that couldn't. I do not propose to examine the rules, but,rather, the ideas behind them. There are a few basic assumptions that we must make to lt;be able tosuccessfully communciate with each other. First, we must assume that all the people of whom wespeak are college students between the ages of 17 and 22, and secondly, that when we refer to therules we are speaking of those on a local level. It would be most foolhardy to try and change those of the Capitol. It would seem in the college situation that laws and rules are made to stop a troublesomeevent or to create an atmosphere of order and serenity. It is true that the college must take certainresponsibilities toward the actions of the students that they teach. It would require some sort ofregulation to maintain silence in the library so that the majority could study, and also another set of rules to lorm the procedure for the use of library facilities. There are also rules of a less formal nature that arein operation in the classrooms of Old Main and the other buildings. Personal freedoms guaranteed As needful as many of these rules are, it would seem that when a great many are created to govern notonly the educational aspects of the student, but also his social life, they are moving out of the school'sresponsibility. The private life and the personal freedoms of individuals are guaranteed rights in theConstitution of the United States. I t would seem that the philosophy behind the rules and regulations ofthe administration is the same as that of Theodore Roosevelt when he said, "No man is above the lawand no man is below it, nor do we ask any man's permission when we require him to obey it." Notethat last line. It is perhaps significant in our case, for very rarely is the student asked his opinion about a subject. If he is, it is a mere formality and his opinion is almost meaningless. This is but the first partof our little study, but I would like to leave you with a quotation from Thoreau to think about until nextweek. "Any fool can make a rule, and every fool will obey it." LETTERS. . . Where will it all end? To the Editor: I seem to be under the wrong impression about college. Isn't college the place where we aresupposed to learn and ibetter ourselves so that we will be able to teach generations to come?Somewhere in our midst there seems to be a person or persons who believe differently. This individual or individuals are known by the common name of "thief." By one means or another they have discoveredthat it is easier to "steal" a book than to buy one. I can see the person now just saying to himself, "Well, I just saved another eight dollars." Do these types of people have any feelings? Evidently not. Itseems it has happened before in this institution ol "higher" learning. The frightening thing about it is, how can a person or persons stand by and let others steal. These persons are no better than the individualwho does the stealing. I can't really see how one could take a book at 12 noon in Edens Hall withoutbeing noticed. There must be a couple of "students" with this on their conscience, if they have one. It'stoo bad that these people get away with it. This type of a person will not stop with just a book. This wasproven last quarter with a mannequin which was located in the Student Union Building. Where will itall end?

Page 2 WESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAN January 27, 1961 ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1961 January 27 - Page 3 ---------- Selected portrait artist To the Editor: I was abruptly iniormed by members of the Knpsun staff that mypicture would not be accepted for tnis year's publication of our school annual unless I hired theservices of a portrait artist previously selected by our ASB president to take the portraits of all thestudents. I have accepted witnout complaint regulations which require me to n-nancially support tneathletic program as wen as the Artist and Lecture Series and other entertainment from which I, asan older married man with four children, derive little or no benefit. However, since I agreed that suchprograms are good for the majority of the students in this institution, I pay unprotestingly. Furthermore, I do not object to regulations which require me to buy a new (bookstore, parking sticKers, schoolpaper and annual. However, when some student or students in this College display the unmitigatedaudacity of signing a contract ordering me to spend my money with a portrait artist of their choicelor a portrait of my face to put in my annual, I prepare to do battle! Upon asking a member of theKlipsun staff why such a ridiculous regulation was imposed, he informed me that having all portraitsmade by one artist was necessary for uniformity in the annual. Even though this answer is commonlyused to justify such arrangements, I submit that the statement is absolutely false. Furthermore, I speakas an authority on this subject as I have been a professional portrait artist who owned and operated myown studio and have made hundreds of portraits of students for their school annuals for many yearspast. Any time the staff of an annual is really concerned about uniformity, of lighting, background andhead-size in the cuts they employ, they can simply submit this information to all local artists and refuseto accept cuts unless they meet these specifications. Any experienced artist expects this and finds itmost simple to conform. This fact was known by those who made the exclusive contract arrangements with Juke's studio, unless they were total asses; so I must conclude that they had an ulterior motive.Even though I have not yet investigated i'ar enough to determine the veracity of the statement. A portraitis a work of art and not a commodity purchased in a store. It is a study of a personality rather thansimply a map of the face. If uniformity is the only concern of our Klipsun staff, they may as well use thepictures on our ASB cards. Although they are certainly uniform and much less expensive, I hardlyconsider them as portraits. If we want to be assured of continuous high quality in portraits oranything we purchase, as well as a reasonable price, we must adhere to the principles of competitionand free enterprise which has made America the greatest country in the world and which our educatorsembrace. When we tolerate our elected officers to violate these basic democratic principles bydictating to us where we must spend our own money or not be able to have our portrait in the annual which we had to purchase to be able to attend this college, we are acting as stupidly as did the Nazis who followed Hitler. I'm certain that these same officers could make other favorable monopoly contractarrangements requiring us to patronize a certain barber, auto business or clothing store in the name ofuniformity if we the students would permit it! I submit that you, the students of WWC, are equally guiltyfor this deplorable contract because you have permitted it. I know that many of you resent it as muchas do I. So, speak up, please! Eugene W. James Athletic scholarships To The Editor: Roger Myers, ina recent Collegian article, "Western Basketball," has presented quite an interesting case advocatingmore money for scholarships and more space for crowded athletic conditions. Mr. Myers states thatthe "new gym will undoubtly help build up the program" and that the primary concern is money. If thisis the case there should "be no major concern over the need for more space since a new building is nowunder construction. Then, only one proposal should remainâ€” that of obtaining more money forathletic scholarships (basketball scholarships). Here again I find that a real need does not exist, at leastMr. Myers has not presented any valid type of evidence. His only reason is, "Every other school in theconference has a better plan for athletic scholarships than Western does." This is the same type ofreasoning that advertisers use in "helping" Americans decide what product to buy. Reasoning of this type is the creator of mass psychologyâ€”of everyone doing what everyone else is doing. This, verybluntly, is conformity. At present the students are paying $1800 for athletic scholarships. Next year,1961-1962, the amount will be $2142. This being so, I ask, "Why doesn't the student help pay forscholarships for people in English, biology, economics; why do the people in the Athletic Departmentget special attention?" It is interesting to note at this point that the article pointed out the need for some athletes to have jobs; it might do us well to rememiber that others on this campus have to have oddjobs, be lab assistants, or be readers. Until Mr. Myers gives some type of v a l i d reasoning for athleticscholarships, I am not convinced that they are necessary. Don C. Smith MODEL UNITED NATIONS Inthe midst of cold winds In the midst of the cold winds here on campus a small group of students arebusily dreaming of the warmer climate of the tropics. The students are the members of the Model UnitedNations delegation which will represent Western as Costa Ricans at thje 11th session of the MUN atthe University of Oregon, April 12-15.

Your faith in the glories of human nature has proved completely unwarranted. To reiteratethe obvious, I have returned. The first amazingly erudite thing I have to offer is, regrettably, a note ofapology. There will be no contest this week. I wanted to speak upon navels, but after great reflection and meditation upon my own, decided that navels were a ticklish subject and not to be poked around (in). Ifthe Censorship Board hereabouts retires (or dies off) or something, I may get to do something nastywith my ideas. So until that great gettin' up morning you are just out of luck. * * * College is not just aclassroom â€” not just four years of crammed knowledge. There is so much beyond the four walls of alecture hall; the dances, Memory Walk, the cheers at a game. All this is a pretty sneaky way to get tothe meat of my beef. Cheers! Or to be more specific, school spirit, or the lack of same. Here at thisesteemed institute of higher learning (well, we are on a hill) there is a most grievous lack of studentparticipation in our athletic events. I do not know the cause or the remedy for this, I can only deplore it. I have been at this school since 1958 and can ask the new students only one question â€” Where'sthe gym? * * * PLAUDITS AND PUT DOWN DEPARTMENT I can easily live without the secondquarter freshman girl that is trying to impress me by the number of four letter Anglo-Saxon words shecan use. Maybe I came from a different social background, but a woman that speaks with the patoisof the gutter has never 'proven to me any great level of sophistication. * * * I was going to go to the lastmixer but couldn"t make it at the iinal moment. When I opened the door to go in, I heard a car wreck. Or at least it sounded like a car wreck and I saw bodies flying. Hasn't anyone else ever heard of ballroomdancing? Several, more or less, people have asked me to point the poison pen at January 27, 1961Marshall Bronson. This I will not do. You may or may not like his column, but at least he is trying to dosomething. I notice none of his detractors are doing anything of greater value. And what's more to thepoint, he happens to be bigger than I am. * * * A final note of great importance: Plauenite is a syeniterich in plagi-oclase. "Alice in Wonderland . . . how do you get to Wonderland?" This question wasasked of me the other day. I replied that you just let things get stranger and stranger until at length youare so at home among them that you think everything else odd. "That isn't too good an idea,' came thereply. "You really are not in Wonderland at all, you just think you are . . . then everyone thinks you areout of your mind." "Really," I said, "and how is that going to affect you if you think you are inWonderland?" "Well, they could put you in Northern State . . . you know, the nut farm." "My," Ireplied, "that really would â€¢be terrible because then you would have to start over again, and then when the authorities found out you were not behaving in an insane fashion they would commit you into sane society." "Well, I think you are nuts," he said, getting up and preparing to leave, "tout then I guessthat's because I don't live in Wonderland." He started across the room, shook his head in sympathy,and in the process walked into the wall. "I think you had better come back and sit down a bit," I said."Now that your head is cleared we might be able to talk." He smiled and said, "Have some more tea."Being in a kind mood I followed the dialogue and said, "But I haven't had any!" "Then you can't have anyless . . . have some more!" "I meant spiritual love" It is tragic that most of the people that think me madend up raving themselves. (Take the cue . . . be /BSTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAN careful not toread this column too often.) This raving state comes about when they take some things I say seriously.Ninety per cent of my column is good sound advice, but that other ten per cent can have rather badresults. In one column, for example, I told the readers to get out and set the world afire with love. I meant spiritual love, but quite disastrous results occured. Others have thought me to be a Hindu missionary . . . You know . .. "Ye Hindu heralds go proclaim Salvation in Lord Vishnu's name. To distant climes thetidings bear And plant the tree of Brahma there." Well, at times it would be fun to be a missionary ofsorts, but then I might convert myself in the process. Let's ship Stacy to India A certain party, whowould be immediately recognized if I were to mention his name, even contemplated an inquisition . . ."Walk up and down the street and when you come to a house that has a smell of incense lingeringoutside, go in and get the people and light them." This same party tried to form a "let's ship Stacy toIndia" movement. "They deserve it, because their literature got him started." Well, the clouds of incensesmoke have settled down, I have .been declared safe at large, because Nehru has established a veryhigh import duty on me and the party I mentioned became asphixiated one night while hiding in myincense burner . . . For three days I thought it was the low grade incense that was causing the smell."SWEETHEARTS BALL" Under the supervision of co-chairmen Dick Hayes and Penny Sullivan, plansfor the "Sweetheart's Ball," which will be held Feb. 11, are progressing rapidly. This event will be thefirst of its kind to he sponsored jointly .by the Norsemen and the AWS. The highlight of the evening willbe the crowning oi' the sweetheart couple. The candidates are selected by the AWS Commission andnarrowed down to five couples. The final choice will be made by the student body. The dance will beheld in the Viking Union from 9-12 p.m. Booths will be set up for couples wishing to have their picturetaken. The price for this semi-formal aftair will be $1.50 per couple; however, only 250 tickets will 'beavailable. Page 5 ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1961 January 27 - Page 6 ---------- Â©ntwlatuma until SUgulatumB DUELS WITH RULES . . . by Judy Borman The torn and tangled web ofcollege living rules for women needs mending. Geared to a day when Navy ships docked in the cityharbor and Western was not yet established as a progressive college, these rules have long been inneed of revision. Each year the coed becomes more and more aware of the ifact that, though societalmores regarding women have changed considerably in the past few years, college rules have not. Asearch light each night Today's young women are capable of taking care of themselves. While most ofher contemporaries are accepting the freedom and responsibilities of married or business life, thecollege girl is forced to live the life of the dorm, with its highly complex and often irrational web of rules.She is told what to wear when, what time she must come in each night, when she is allowed to makewhat sounds and how to take care of her room. She is subject to the intrusion of a search light eachnight and she does not have a good atmosphere for studying, nor is she allowed to entertain guests. Forthose girls who do not object to this regulated life, dormitories and houses will suffice, but tor those whowant to develop some living responsibilities and have a taste of being truly on their own, an alternativeshould be offered. Lack of faith The logical alternative, of course, wouxd be to let college women maketheir living arrangements independent of the college, 'providing that their parents will assumeresponsibility i'or them. Though the rule requiring women to live in supervised housing must havebeen made for some sound reasons, the main implication is that college girls are not mature enoughto lead a moral and responsible life without the forced assistance of rules, regulations andhousemothers, an attitude which indicates an astounding lack of faith in the character of the nation'si'uture teachers and educators. Even though it may be true that some girls would not lead the mostdiscreet lives if allowed to be on their own, this should be the concern of the girl and her parents, not ofthe college. The college's responsibilities should be to provide students with an academic education, not to control their private lives. Many houses and apartments offer living accomodations far superior to those provided by the college for a lesser amount of money, and off-campus housing does not requireroom deposits. Women can get some experience in handling money, planning meals and operating ahome that will be invaluable to them when they are ready to marry or go out into the professionalworld. One of the most obvious advantages of apartment living is vastly improved study conditions, due to space, comfort and privacy. These three points: superior financial arrangements,development of private responsibility and the improvement of study conditions seem to compriselogical reasons for allowing women students to choose their living accomodations independent of thecollege. Changes must be made It seems very unreasonable that a girl who can present an indisputable case for independent living and has her parents' wholehearted support, should be told (by theadministration that it just can't be done. Since the college's only real argument against allowing womento have their own apartments is that the rule book says they can't, it is now time to see that the rulebook is revised. Unofficial polls have shown that the majority of students and faculty members feel thatstudents with their parents' permission should be allowed to live wherever they can find the best living arrangements. It is obvious that changes must be made. WHAT, ME REBEL? The housemothers loveyou! by Karen Bainter Midway upon this night we're hound upon, I awoke to find myself in a dark room .. .

I rebel against rebelling! Girls of the college take note. I am for the upholding olrules. I am for the green AWS Garden of Information. I am even for the ivy-entwined bird house on thefront cover. Women of the College ! Why? Why do you do it? The dean loves you, your housemotherslove you, and the proctors are humanâ€” Why rebel? Here we areâ€”adults, college students,intellectuals, the future of America. Aren't we old Woman of the college "Men, hours, and fire escapes"enough, mature enough and independent enough to appreciate the security that is offered us? Do youwant to be like a working girlâ€” carefree, uncontrolled, insecure, no signing in and out? It is rather likean ugly orange robe which has nothing whatsoever to do with college rules, but has a certain freud-iansignificance. Now people say the rules are medieval.

See the pretty roommate. We all have roommates. And if you're real good and squeeze your toothpaste tube properly your roommate might turn out tobe your best friend (excluding intrigue and gold fish bowls, of course.) Housing: Housing must besecured. Insecure housing is nasty-poo. To get insecure (housing) you must be married, 21, orclandestinely inclined.

Rooms: Always use masking tape, because scotch tape, -and that other junk, makes holes inthe wall, and then you have to get pictures to cover them up. If you want to write notes to thehousemother, find things that need repairing; but if you don't, don't. House organization: All scintillatinghousemeetings should be attended en-massâ€”the library isn't very exciting anyhow. Hours: Nooutbursts of passionate emotion during quiet hours. Men: This is a very interesting subject, ibut ratherirrelevant where rules are concerned (or are they?) But ever remember the 11th Commandmentâ€” DONOT NECK ON PORCHES. Signing out: Always sign out so that if you become famous in a few yearsthe housemother will have your autograph. Permissions: It is recommended that you not leave townmore than twice a month. This is a part of the "Return to Bellingham" movement. It is also convenient for the students that are gone from school 15 days at a time, because they do not feel inferior becausethey can only go home twice a month anyway.

FACULTY SPEAKS "Snowmen and brownie points" byRoger Libby "I think students learn very little in classes; I hope what students get from my classes issomething they can take home and ponder." This is the feeling of Mr. Roy Mumme, new assistantprofessor of education at Western. Mr. Mumme and Mr. Pat Kaye, a student and president of SWEA,spoke on the topic, "How I See the Student." The discussion was one of a series oi faculty-studentconversations to be held each Thursday at 4 p. m. in room li-A. of the Viking Union. Mr. Mumme, whoconstantly amused his audience with his jokes and his southern accent, presented some verythought-provoking ideas. Mumme said that his strongest impression of the Western student is thathe is characterized by relatively low levels of aspiration and expectation in regard to himself, his fellowstudents and apparently even his instructors. It seems that many students are so constantlypreoccupied with the concern of maintaining a "good" grade point average that the excitement of ideas and the time honored goals of a well-rounded education are only remotely viewed. Holding this view ofhimself, the student sets low standards for others, and when students of vigor and genuine intellectualcuriosity do not conform to these low levels of expectation they are frequently looked upon as"snowmen" trying to earn a few "brownie" points with some naive instructor. A dispenser of "goodies"Mumme commented that few students really want to be stimulated or challenged by their instructors.Instead, the teacher is viewed as a dispenser of "goodies" that can be mastered with a minimum of effort. This low "level of expectation" also is relevant to the student's fellow classmates. The student whoexpects little from himself naturally Page 8 expects little from others. Mr. Mumme made it quiteclear that the responsibility of not "sliding" in "intellectual responsibility" rests soundly on theshoulders of the student. He also felt that even if a student is subjected to mediocre instruction, that thestudent still can learn much on his own. But, says Mumme, "Students don't always learn all they aresupposed to . . . even in class; students learn, rather, from wide reading and the exchange of ideaswhich necessarily extend beyond the classroom." Roy Mumme Jokes and a southern accent At thispoint Pat Kaye said a few words. Kaye said that many college professors don't push students enoughat the beginning of a course, and after they have discovered that they have a great deal left to cover,"pour it on" in unbearable loads, which is very poor planning. Kaye also mentioned that students aredisillusioned by what the professor wants. This could be explained in a more understandable mannerat the beginning of a course. Professors often enhance their egos Mr. Mummeâ€”"A favorite pastimeof teachers is to criticize students. It is easy to criticize college students, but it is difficult to steer aconstructive course between the attitudes of the "angry youns man*' and "Big Daddy" who knows all thetherapeutic answers." He said the college professor oiten can "enhance WESTERN WASHINGTONCOLLEGIAN his ego" by making the "gap" between the student and professor as wide as possible.Sometimes the 'prof makes the "gap" so large that he wanders from the "beaten track." In Florida it istraditional for students to slide or even stamp their feet when the prof does or says something theydon't like. This is called "shutfling". Another device which is often employed is the reiterating bystudents of "beep, beep" when the prof is "way out of orbit" in regard to the subject at hand. SaysMumme, "My impression is that it would never occur to Western students to respond in such rebelliousways." Agrees with Kelly The opinions of Mr. Mumme were, by and large, wholly accepted by theaudience. Mr. Mumme mentioned the fact that he agreed completely with William Kelley on his views onnonconformity and the beneficial usage of "anger from within." The next of the informal meetings,which will be held on Thursday, Feb. 2, will feature Dr. Robert Simpson, Principal of the Campus School,and Mr. Jerry Baker, ASB President. STATE LEGISLATURE Ten million requested by MargaretAshburn Facing the State Legislature as it opened two weeks ago was, among other items, a ten million dollar request lor the next biennium from Western Washington College. According to Dr. James L.Jarrett, College president, of this ten million, $7,- 487,700 constitutes the operating budget, one million library expansion, and $900,000 expansion of classroom space and smaller items. Latest reports fromthe Legislature see some $4,997,000 given Western for construction and renovation in the next twoyears. Included in this figure are the following projects: 1) Construction of a classroom building:$898,780. 2) Extension and repair-of steam-line and drainage system: $271,224. 3) Completion of thephysical education building: $187,680. 4) Improvement of the electrical distribution system: $171,688. 5) Renovation of the old Physical Education Building: $27,424. January 27, 1961 ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1961 January 27 - Page 9 ---------- 6) Purchase of land for future use: $50,000. 7) Residence halls, food facility, equipment, furnishings (allfrom non-state sources â€” Federal Housing and Home Finance Agency loans and student building fee fund): $3,390,000. Reports seem to indicate that Western will be unable to expand its library within the next two years. Until November, the library expenditure was to take precedence over classroomexpansion; however, because enrollment is running a/bout two years ahead of what was anticipatedbefore revised enrollment figures were revealed in November, Harold Goltz "inadequate storage, studyand work space" construction of classrooms was moved up two years. "Library inadequate" "Built inthe twenties tor a much reduced enrollment, the existing library building is inadequate as to storage,study and work space," commented Harold Goltz, now assistant to Dr. Jarrett. "The fact that thegovernor's budget did not include our library addition does not mean that we will not continue to press for it," President Jarrett said recently. "We will ask the Legislature to authorize us to make theseadditions to the library in accordance with our original request," he said further. Goltz, sharing thepresident's opinion, hopes that WWC students will enter the "library campaign." The proposed libraryaddition, according to Goltz, would fold around the new Haggard Hall courtyard. New revenue sourcesneeded Not only Western, but all five of the Washington institutions of higher learning will be able toobtain their total requests only if the Legislature can find new sources of revenue. Governor Rosellinipredicts that only about 12 per cent more than the present biennium budget would be available underpresent taxes. During this biennium, Western was granted slightly over $4,300,000 operatingexpenses, considerably less than the $7,487,700 requested for the next two years. Also before theLegislature is the naming of Washington's schools of education. The proposed name for these colleges,Western included in this number, is State College. Western's name would, if this recommendationpasses, be changed from Western Washington College of Education to Western Washington StateCollege. 0LDE TIMERS . .. From The Northwest Viking The following material was published in TheNorthwest Viking, predecessor of the Collegian and official newspaper of Bellingham Normal School. It was dated Friday, July 6, 1928. * * * "We are here this summer enjoying ourselves to the best of ourability with the necessary conveniences, but now and then we have more or less 'suppressed desires'which we find 'cropping out' in the form of dreams. "When we wish we had a place to go for a real goodfrolic we have to squelch that wish and be content. Suppose that there were enough students who hadsuch 'desires,'suppressed them, dreamed, and made dreams come true? We would have, as a result,perhaps, a Students' Union building with fountain, cafeteria, co-op, Viking office, Klipsun office, Students' Association office, lounges and dance hall. "Is it possible? Let us watch for the opportunity to 'popthe question' and then 'push it.' * * * A party of twenty-six students and faculty members, led by Mr.Pond, Mr. Arntzen and Miss George, of the faculty, which visited the Austin Pass country and TwinLakes Pass, Friday, Saturday and Sunday of last week, reports an excellent week-end's outing. Thegroup visited Heather Meadows, Austin Pass and Table Mountain on Saturday, then returned toShuksan for the night. Sunday, the five-and-one-half mile hike to Twin Lakes Pass was made. wusForty-one countries "Most of us in this country have little concept of what the world is like that we livein." Talking to the WUS executive board, Mrs. Gladys Lawther, Regional Executive for WUS in thestates of Washington, Oregon, Montana and Idaho, showed slides and explained the objectives andpurposes of WUS, and answered the questions afterwards that the students and iaculty advisors asked.Forty-one countries take part in World University Service, which gives aid to college students throughoutthe world. The richer, prosperous countries like the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand andthe European countries put money in, while the poorer countries take money out, but usually have toearn or raise the majority of the money for the project they are working on themselves. The largestconcerns of WUS are housing, books and health services. Contrast is everyplace The most striking thing that showed up in the slides was the contrast between the old and the new â€” the primitive traditions and the West. Having traveled through a lot of the countries that receive WUS aid, Mrs. Lawtherremarked, "The contrast is everyplace." The money colleges give goes for everything from libraries to TB sanitariums; from living quarters to work parties where college students help illiterates. After answeringpointed questions about how and where the money goes, Mrs. Lawther complimented our past campusefforts, "I've ibeen very impressed with the way you do things here." This year's WUS drive will be held from February 15-21 and is jointly sponsored toy Helmsmen and Valkyrie. FACULTYSCHOLARSHIPS "$100 each" Three juniors, one sophomore and one freshman walked away withfaculty scholarship awards for the year 1959-60. These scholarships, which are given annually foroutstanding academic achievements, are for $100 each â€” no strings attached. The freshman awardwas taken by Ingebord Wills, who had a grade point of 3.98. David Sutherland, last January 27, 1961WESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAN Page 9 ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1961 January 27 - Page 10 ---------- year's frosh winner, took the sophomore scholarship with a GPA of 3.88. All three juniors had a perfectrecord oi 4.0. They were Albert Evans, Mrs. Margaret Schiele and Carol Warner. v The assembly, whichwas regrettably very poorly attended, took place last week, with Dr. Alan Ross, Dean of the GraduateDivision of Western, the speaker. Representing the College in full 'faculty dress were Miss Plympton,from the Art Department; Miss Piatt, biological sciences; Dr. Mitchell economics; Dr. "Van Aver,English; Mr. Elmendorf, foreign languages; Dr. Monohan, geography; Dr. Radke, history; Mrs. Larrabee,home economics; Dr. Atteberry, industrial arts; Dr. Rio, mathematics; Dr. Schaub, music; Dr. Aitken,P.E. Department; Dr. Neuzel, physics and chemistry; Dr. Carroll, professional education; Dr. Adams,psychology; Dr. Anastasio, soc-anthro; and Dr. Carlile, speech. The faculty expressed hope that thestudents will take more interest in the scholarships and the assembly in the future. HARRY STIVER"Acting is academic" by Valerie Lockhart Dr. H a r r y Stiver, Director of Theatre Arts and director of hisfirst play at Western, is a dynamically ambitious addition to our faculty, and especially to the DramaDepartment. Dr. Stiver, who is married and has three children, comes to Western after recentlyworking on the staff and completing his Ph.D. at the University of Illinois. He graduated from HastingsCollege, Nebraska, in 1949, and taught high school until 1952, when he worked on the Theatre Staffand received his M.A. from the University of Nebraska in 1953. Stiver then moved to California and in1954 attended Stanford University, Palo Alto, to begin work on his Ph.D. He spent 1955-Â»5j6 as avisiting professor at the University of Athens in Greece, and irom 1956-58 he held the title of Associate Director of Theatre at the University of Illinois. Likes experimental theatres While working at Nebraskaas Associate Director of Theatre, Stiver commented most lavorably on the two experimental theatreswhich the Department operated. According to him, in an educational developmental program such asdrama, a strong ex- Fage 10 perimental theatre is the life-blood of a drama program on campus. One ofthe points he emphasized about college dramatics â€” specifically at Western â€” is that such agreat percentage of the student body is self-supporting and/or carrying extra-heavy class loads that timedoes not permit some Dr. Stiver, Director of the most talented dramatists to participate in plays. In anexperimental theatre atmosphere, acting can be done whenever the time is available for the individual.He expressed hope that enough enthusiasm may be aroused to eventually have experimental theatres at Western. Stiver also said that the main problem he found at Western was the under-estimation of the theatre. "Acting should be regarded as academic discipline rather than mere entertainment. Thetheatre is falsely thought of as a 'performing art,' when actually it is a coordinate of many arts. In order to present an outstanding play, the talents of students in practically every field are utilized." Playemphasizes audience appeal "Skin of Our Teeth," to be given Feb. 16, 17 and 18, was chosen by Stiverbecause, as he stated, "this is one of the few plays that has and will survive the test of time. Its humorand drama will never grow old. It is beautifully written and has an electrifying etfect on the audience."He has wanted to do this play for years. It is particularly good because it calls for a large cast, therebyoffering varied oportunity for many students wishing to participate in the production. The Pulitzer Prizewinning play, written by Thornton Wilder, has a different style â€” emphasizing audience appeal â€”and WESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAN should ,be one of the most successful plays ever produced at Western. Stiver e x p r e s s e d , in his personal feelings about Western, the existence of a greatdeal of potential interest in dramatics from the students. He strongly feels that, as mentioned before,many of the students who show exceptional talent and interest are handicapped by their financialsituation or academic over-load. LEGISLATURE Bainter named editor by Yvonne Westman Theselection of the 1961-1962 Collegian Editor was the main item of contention at the Jan. 24 Legislaturemeeting. Two applications were accepted, both from well qualified Collegian staff members, MissesKaren Bainter and Judy Borman. Miss Bainter submitted a letter listing her qualifications, which wasread to the Board by the ASB Secretary, while Miss Borman personally presented her plaftorm.Following this a letter of recommendation lor Miss Bainter was read, after which both applicants werefurther questioned as to their planned policies. Satisfaction with format In their policies, Miss Baintermaintained complete satisfaction with the present newsmagazine format, while Miss Borman stressed satisfying student interests in presenting the paper, recommended a change in format if the studentbody so desired, and suggested other changes in the content of the paper. When asked if she wouldever be radical in presentation, she replied both yes and no because of the ambiguity of the question.Yes, she may in some instances be forced to make so-called "radical" presentations, but no that ifany such presentations were made they would ot be in poor taste. Miss Bainter stated "no" that shewould make no radical presentations for the sake of radical presentations, but that she would not avoidthe issues. When the votes were in Miss Bainter was named 1961-1962 Collegian Editor. The oneapplicant for 1961-1962 Collegian Business Manager was found ineligible, so the selection of this officialwas postponed until Feb. 7. Applications for 1961-1962 Collegian Business Manager, 1961-1962 Klip-January 27, 1961 ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1961 January 27 - Page 11 ---------- sun Editor, and Collegian Business Manager for the remainder of the 1960-1961 school year must all hepresented to the board on or before noon of this date. Grotto running on deficit Union Board ChairmanMarshall Bronson reported that the Viking Union "Grotto" was running on a monthly deficit of around$80.00 per month last quarter, and explained how the supposedly self-supporting student recreationroom was now operating and the reason for the deilcit. Because of an unauthorized five year contract tomaintain three billiard tables, means of correcting the situation appeared to be rather touchy. Bronson,however, proposed to present some plans for solving the problem at the next board meeting. Themeeting was adjourned following an announcement by President Jerry Baker that a report on the Jan.21 meeting of Legislature, Cabinet, AWS, and Norsemen representatives will be presented at the nextBoard meeting. ANNA RUSSELL "A mobile face" scribed as being "as flexible as a collapsible campchair." She is a statuesque woman with pale blonde hair and electric blue eyes that "never fail to throwoi'f sparks." Anna Russell has parlayed her face, figure and sense of humor into one of the mostsuccessful careers in show business. Traveling around the world year after year, she has managed to fillhouses in the most remote and uncomfortable places in the world. Some of her critics' comments are:"A one woman show with enough laughter for all"; "One of the top satirists of the day"; "The darling ofhalf the world's concert halls"; and "As tine a show woman as the stage knows."

Building billiard tables was. suggestedas a possible solution. Because of the rental agreement on the pool tables now being used, $1.20 perhour must be charged. This is thought to be quite unreasonable by most students, and consequently lew are using these facilities. The Union Board receives only 40% of the profits from the tables. Mr. Goltzreminded the Board that everything had been done to keep the doors open, but there was no "real"advertisement for the room. The idea of moving the television set from Room 10 into the Grotto wasthen suggested. Room 10 could then be free for seminars. With such a plan, there is a possibility ofcreating more use of the vending machines in the Grotto. The Board talked of finishing the work roomand making equipment available for use in making posters and decorations. A craft program might alsobe developed. Students were selected to replace several chairmen who have resigned. Jim Boyles is toreplace Dave Stude-baker as Music Chairman and Linda Stixrud was nominated to replace Carol Brownas Publicity Chairman. No one has been chosen to take Don Price's job as Recreation Chairman. TheArt Committee is planning an art exhibit in co-ordination with the WUS program. No definite date hasbeen set for the exhibit. Jim Boyles, who is in charge of housing for the ACU conference, reported that several plans for housing and other details are ibeing arranged. With a final reminder about theleadership conference to be held Jan. 21? the meeting was adjourned. BARBARA L0GSD0N ; Bright-eyed legislator "Listening and learning" are considered the., prime duties of the senior classrepresentative on Legislature/ Barbara Logsdon. The bright-eyed Legislator, most commonlyrecognized around campus as WWC's I960- ^Homecoming Queen, leels the magnitude of the ASBresponsibilities leave much for her to acquaint herself and those she represents with Page 12 beforeshe can actively contribute to the Board's actions. Supporting this attitude of "being seen but not heard,not just yet anyhow," Barbara complimented the effectiveness ol the informal Legislature meetingheld Feb. 21 to orient new members and define the ASB structure in terms of club and campusrelations. Legislator Logsdon "Listening and learning" Barbara is a music major who plans to teachelementary music "somewhere on the Pacific Coast" after graduation in June. Music and Logsdonare nearly synonymous at WWC â€”watch the College Chorale or listen to the dance band. There is noneed to ask her support and/or enthusiasm for the proposed "Beggar's Opera" next quarter. Barbarais on the Pep Committee for ASB, but "as yet, we've not met!" Asked for an opinion on any of severalLegislative controversies, Barbara again ducked behind her words, "listening and learning."PLACEMENT ''Privacy and confidentiality" "Privacy and confidentiality are two factors needed for a goodinterview," commented Dr. Silvernail, Superintendent of the Edmonds School District. This comment was directed to a gathering of prospective teachers ' in the auditorium last Monday night. A mockinterview followed by a panel discussion answered the question, "What schools look for in hiring."Team interviewing is preferable in most school districts. This means that two persons will interview thecandidate. "The more you interview as a team, the more competent a person becomes in this task,"remarked Dr. Silvernail. Although the privacy and contidentiality factors were missing during the mockinterview, WESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAN future teachers were able to hear the types ofquestions which are likely to be asked at an interview. "How did you handle discipline while studentteaching,-' was one of the questions asked in respect to the applicant's student teaching experiences. Other questions were of a general nature. For example, "What is your major and minor?" and "Whatmade you decide to become a teacher?" Sincerity, grooming, speech and an interest in other peopleare qualities the interviewer looks for in an applicant. Dr. Silvernail suggested that "students bringquestions of their own to ask the interviewer." Panel discussion Representatives irom the Shoreline, Edmonds, Highline, Seattle and Everett School Districts discussed "do's" and "don'ts" for theapplicant. The panelists agreed that dressing neatly, remembering that the interviewers are humanbeings too, and being yourself were important "dos." The outstanding "don'ts" mentioned by thepanelists were failing to show up for the interview, failing to communicate with the interviewer or givingthe attitude that you know everything. Panelists stressed the "ability to express oneself." A plug forWestern and an applause lor the district representatives was given when one panelist stated that "ManyWestern graduates are sought for teachers because of the quality of learning they acquire at thiscollege." Contract, policy and ethics are the topics of the last of these four meetings. These topicswill be presented on Jan. 30 at 7:30 p.m. in the Campus School Auditorium. I. A.

Last weekend the Viks all but sealed the tomb on the once proud Knightsfrom Pacific Lutheran. Handing the Lutes their sixth straight loss (68 to 53) and fourth in five conferencegames, the Viks established themselves as the team to beat as the conference race nears the half-waymark. Tonight the log-jam at the top of the heap will be broken as Whit-worth leaves the protectiveconlines of the Spokane valley and takes a run at the Vikings. The Pirates are Bud Bloch . . . Bigperformance from bench a veteran team relying on the scoring and playmaking of 5'10" guard EdHagen and the rebounding of 6'5" Jay Jackson. Three game win streak Tomorrow night veteran coach"Red" Reese will bring his young team into the Viking lair hoping to extend the Savages' three game winskein. The Redmen should start with a veteran contingent of Dick Han-nan, Walt Hartman, DaveDanielson, Ted Paterson and Harold York. These five have been responsible for the Savages' late rushwhich has pushed them into second place after dropping their first two games to Whitworth. LastSaturday the Viks literally "Bloch-ed" the Lute title hopes. Bud Bloch, senior center, came off the benchand fired in 15 points in addition to playing great defensive ball on Ralph Carr, PLU center. Anotherreserve, Gary Mose, also had one of his better nights. Mose canned 16 points and was in the mainresponsible for cracking the visitors' sagging defense by driving through the middle continuously ior either two points or two foul shots. Herman Washington was the third individual hero as he jumped andsquirmed for 10 field goals and an equal number of rebounds. Again as in earlier games, the benchstrength or depth pulled the game out of the fire. The Lutes stayed even with the Viks for the first 17minutes, but fell behind to stay with three minutes remaining in the half when Mose and Bloch hit forconsecutive baskets to push the Viks in front 18 to 15.

JAYVEE'S JV's beat "team with record" Paced by the scoring of Bill Zage-low, Western's JV's pushed their season's mark to an impressive four wins infive starts last week as they dumped Bremerton Nygards 67 to 56 and Monroe Reformatory 89 to 37. Inthe Bremerton contest, big Bob Gilda plucked 25 rebounds off the boards and stuffed in 10 points as thejunior Viks were never headed. Gary Moore, junior forward, celebrated his return to action by hitting for 16 points, most of them jump shots from the top of the key. The Nygards, paced by Howard Thoemke,former Washington State freshman star, made a battle of the contest for the iirst 12 minutes, but the JV's superiority off the 'boards eventually decided the contest. Against the Reformatory, Bill Zage-lowconnected for 17 points as he led the balanced JV scoring. Every man got into the scoring column withStan Bianchi, Bob Gilda, Talis Abo-lins and John Gregor hitting double figures. RUGBY "Going to thehounds . . ." A grudge match is in store to morrow afternoon as the Vancouver CYO rugby teamattempts to make it two in a row over Western's ruggers at Shuksan playf'ield. The game, to start at2:30, will bring the Viks face to face with the opponent who edged them out for the second divisionchampionship last fall. Last week the Viks made their start in first division play a success as theythumped the league leading Vancouver Trojans, 13 to 6. Outstanding for the ruggers were GaryBridgman, who scored in the first rugby game of his life, Sam Martin, who raced 50 yards to score, andDenny Sheppard, who iced the contest for the upstart "Yankees" by galloping 40 yards. Pete Napperconcluded the Vik scoring by booting two of three conversion attempts. Other stand-outs for theVikings were Herb Langeman, whose fine kicking from the fullback slot kept the Viks out of a hole, andthe scrum and three line, which continually forced opponents into mistakes. The Viking success raisedseveral eyebrows in .the Canadian city as old-timers muttered that ruigby was "going to the hounds ifthese football- loving Yankees are going to be let into the game."

Tomorrow Eastern comes totown and the Viks will attempt to rack up their second straight victory over the Savages at 2 p.m. Lastweek the Viks split a pair of meets, coming from behind to down U.B.C., and dropping a meet to theUniversity of Washington. Against the Thunderbirds, the Viks relied on their 400 yd. freestyle relayteam to garner the victory, 49 to 46. Going into the last two events of Al Hoppenrath Crowd watches form the day the T-Birds had a 45 to 34 edge. The Viks placed one-two in the 200 yd. breaststroke as BobKinkela and Karl Zappfe flashed across the finish line with a solid margin of vi-tory. This brought thescore to 46 to 42 and set the stage for the victorious relay squad. Later in the week, the Huskies from the U of W had too much speed and power as they downed the Viks, 80 to 15. Highlight of the meet was the first place picked up by Dick Donovan, Western freshman in the 200 yd. backstroke. Donovan set a new personal record as he covered the course in 2:29.5. TRACK Several Western trackmen will get ajump on the 1961 season tomorrow as they compete in the first Pacific Northwest Indoor All-ComersTrack Meet in Seattle. Wearing Vik spangles tomorrow will be Don Trethewey, distance runner; DavePage, middle distance man; Jerry Joyce, sprinter; Dale Warr, ALL BALLED UP by Roger L. Myers After the last couple weekends, I wonder how Pacific Lutheran's "Mr. Basketball" feels about his early seasonprediction? Late in November, the confident coach of the Lutes blithely predicted his Lutes would "win the conference crown." At last report they were mired dead last in the six team scramble. From where I satthe former invincibles looked like a defeated team from the start. The Knights also abandoned their "high-low post" offense for the first time in years and tried to work with a "no-post offense." That looks like ateam grasping at straws and not a championship ballclub, Mr. Lundgaard. Results are now complete from the Collegian "Rate the Teams" contest. It is almost certain that no one will get them all right. PLU'scollapse will certainly knock several prognosticators down, since no one picked them lower thansecond. Another surprise as far as the contest selectors were concerned is Whitworth. Poll results hadrelegated them to fifth place but at present they are sailing along in a tie for first. On an individual basis,PLU received the most votes for first, and also the most votes for second. Western and UPS tied for thesecond highest number of second place votes, with Western also receiving the highest number of thirdplace votes. Eastern and UPS tied for fourth, Central had the most votes for fifth, and Whitworth andCentral tied for last. On point totals, PLU was selected for the top spot, Western second, UPS third,Eastern fourth, Whitworth fifth and Central sixth. Looks like a real scramble for those seven prizes. Thisweekend could be a real profitable one for the Western student with the time and energy to take in all thesporting events in which the college is competing. Tonight and tomorrow are the basketball games with Whitworth and Eastern. The Viking swimmers also have a pair of home meets, meeting the University ofAlberta today at 3 p.m. and taking on Eastern's Savages tomorrow at 2 p.m. Tomorrow afternoon theRugby team has a home game against the Vancouver CYO which begins at 2:30 p.m. at Shuksanplayfield. In addition to this, several trackmen are journeying to Seattle to compete in the allcomers indoor track meet. Not too bad a bargain for $.38 per! .SHORT SPORTS: Western's tenacious defense hasallowed opponents only 58.5 points per game, which ranks them 8th in the nation in that category ...Terry Nixon also is rated nationally for his free throw shooting; currently he is 12th, Walt Hartman,Eastern guard, is even better â€” he's 3rd . . . Nickname: Pete Napper, rugby star, is called "Pyube." . . .Baseball is sneaking up on the sports scene with several aspiring baseballers working out on their own . . . Speaking of baseball, Frank Padlo hit .530 in the Lummi Island League last summer . . . If you can'tplay the sport, you can be one. 440 man; and John Hopkins, medical man. The meet will be the firstindoor meet for the Viks and should provide them with strong competition as some of the Northwest'sranking stars, including a few Olympians, are expected. SKIING Ski team in future? . Western's hopesof a ski team began to take form last week as interested skiiers were asked to contact Jim Carroll or Bill Lefever, vice-president and president of the Ski Club. Feb. 4 or 11 has been set as the date forthe group's first competitive outing. At that time the Viking skiiers will engage Everett JuniorCollege and Skagit Valley Junior College in a triangular ski meet. At the present time all positions areopen and the Ski Club is interested in hearing from all interested persons. SCOREBOARDEVERGREJEN CONFERENCE W L Pet.

Child Care, a course designed for those interested in home economics teaching, is open as a general elective and is of special interest to future homemak-ers. It is scheduled for nine o'clock Monday and Wednesday mornings with Education 43 as a pre-requisite. Dressmaking, a three credit laboratory course, comes Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday from 8:00 to 10:00, for those making Home Economics a minor field of study. Home Economics 61, Clothing Problems is a pre-requisite. Those wishing to take it as an elective may do so with the permission of the instructor. AH girls taking Dressmaking should see Miss Reiman before the end of this quarter so that plans may be made to do necessary shopping during spring vacation. Home Economics 121, Income Management, is a course designed to help girls, secure the most from their money, both as individuals and as homemakers. College And Career Is Bulletin Theme On its way to four thousand people the Faculty bulletin was completed last week. ----- The bulletin is sent to high school students who are graduating in June to help them choose What College . . . What Career? which is the theme for the bulletin. Of special interest are the photographs of the campus taken by Stuart Hertz, photographer for the Seattle P.-L, and "on call" photographer for the Life Magazine. Housing Plans Hit Snag Over Site Plans of WWC for establishment of a veteran's housing project on the Sehome school grounds apparently stalled last week for the want of terms agreeable to the federal government. The Bellingham board of education agreed to lease the Sehome school grounds for two years with an option for a renewal on a month to month basis. If the school grounds would be needed at any time by the board of education, the college would have to vacate within 90 days. The Federal Housing Administration, which is providing the college with 30 emergency housing units and underwriting transportation and installation costs, said the terms were unacceptable., The college was advised to negotiate for a five year lease. The Sehome school may have to reopen at any time due to a large increase in elementary pupils in the city. The school had been closed, except for vocational classes, since before the war. An alternate offer was made by the board of education to the college to lease the site of the old Lar-rabee school on Larrabee avenue for a dollar a year as long as the latter desired. The college has been waiting for the return of Dr. W; W. Haggard before making any definite decision. Former G. l/s Show Pictures Drawn While With Service Sketches, made by three servicemen while serving overseas, will be displayed in the studio gallery of WWC during the first three1 weeks in March. The three ex-servicemen displaying pictures in the art gallery are Joe Nix, WWC student who was a marine for two and one-half years in,the South Pacific; Bob Carpenter, T.'ho was a paratrooper; and Gordon H. Wattles, a commercial artist in Los Angeles before the war who was a civil engineer at Wake Island and was captured during the first month of the conflict. Joe Nix entered a series of pencil sketches made at odd moments during rest periods. His pictures show groups of servicemen playing cards, resting .and reading. A few of the pictures are portrait studies done in more detail. Bob Carpenter's sketches are done in pencil and ink. Although his pictures are smaller than the others, they have an authentic look. Some of the sketches are of artillery men passing ammunition, aiming their large guns or eating K rations. Gordon Wattles is displaying a group of sketches made at a prison camp at Woo Sung, China, four miles south of Shanghai: The pictures include sketches of Chinese coolies at work, a Chinese farm house and dentist office which is a part of the prison compound at which he was a prisoner. From the many inquiries concerning this showing the gallery anticipates a'good attendance. Students Greet Broadcasters Lynden Christian school members were on the WWC campus February 28 for the music broadcast. The 65 members of the orchestra were met at Edens hall by Frank Holbrook and Elsie Knowlton, who took them to the broadcasting location. After the broadcast a tour= of the campus was conducted by Leonard Barnhill and Donelda Johnson. The tour included the PE building, the library and the main building. During the month of March, schools coming for the broadcast are the. Seventh Day Adventist, Whatcom Junior high school band and Ferndale high school. Ross Rejuvenates New Residence "It is not very new but it is well preserved and we like it a lot and we are spending, all of our time fixing it up. It needed quite a bit of fixing. I steamed off all the wallpaper, and in the dining room I found a simulated tooled leather for wallpaper at one time of another," was the answer to a query put to him by a Collegian reporter concerning his new home. Dr. Ross' new domain is located at 317 Cedar street. ' "We were very lucky in finding a place_ within walking distance of the college.; Our furniture is being shipped out here from Washington, D. C. and we expect to be ready to move in by next month," said Dr. Ross. Next Week Closed Closed week will begin Monday, March 11, and continue through the week-end of March 18. During this week no activities will be carried on around the campus. Interviews Now Being Given Dr. Allan Ross, veterans' adviser, is now engaged chiefly in interviewing each veteran and completing the college's veteran records. The information for these files considered most important is the military schools they have attended, the experience they have had that can be transferred to college credits, arid their vocational plans. For those who have chosen a vocation, Dr. Ross has occupational information and references to other sources through which the veteran can obtain further knowledge of his line of work; He is also ready to help the ones^ who -have not chosen a definite vocation to make the best of their educational opportunities while they last. Because of the rising demand in the school for part time employment, employment directors in the city have been contacted and have arranged to contact Dr. Ross about any part time work that may be available. Music Department Presents Concert Musically speaking, Tuesday's assembly, featuring the choir, orchestra and band, was a success. Through the combined efforts of Dr. Frank D'Andrea and Bernard Regier, a well rounded musical program was presented. The orchestra, directed by Dr. D'Andrea. opened the assembly ^ith the national anthem which was followed by two other numbers. Miss Barry Stockton, soprano soloist, sang "I Love Thee" and "Begin the Be-guine" accompanied by Berdell Smith. Regier then took the stage to lead the assembly in two enjoyable community songs. Next on the program was the choir, directed by Regier. They presented three numbers. One ol these receiving favorable comment was "The Night Is Young." The band and Dr. D'Andrea concluded the program with two snappy numbers, one of which Bob Moblo, cornetist, soloed. Prom Guests Listed High school students and advisers from Bellingham, Blain, Ferndale, Meridian, Lynden and Sumas-Nook-sack high schools will be special guests at the Seventh Annual Publications Prom. All publications workers from the high schools of the county were invited to attend, and a large representative group from each of the above-named schools will be present. Reception Honoring, Haggards Planned Wednesday Night To welcome Dr. and Mrs. W. W. Haggard on their return from the east, the faculty, of WWC will entertain with a public reception Wednesday evening, March 13, in the Edens hall Blue room from 8 to 10 p. m. The' students of WWC are cordially invited by the faculty committees to take this opportunity to greet Dr. and Mrs. Haggard, whose marriage took place February ,26 at Wilkes-Barre, Perm. Miss Lorraine Powers, Dean of Women, is general chairman for the reception and will be assisted by the entire faculty. Refreshments will be served at the reception, and pouring will be Mrs. Joseph T. Pemberton, Mrs. Verne Branigin, Mrs. Earl Boede, Mrs. Clara Swift, Mrs. Arthur H. Howard and Miss Joan Haggard. Music in the foyer will be under the direction of Dr. Frank D'Andrea. Veteran Checks Big Problem Mr. Ivor J. Allsop, local contact representative for the Veterans Administration, was the main speaker at a special meeting called by Dr. Alan Ross to help veterans attending school get their allotment checks from the government. . According to Mr. Allsop, the reason fpr the delay in receiving the checks, under the G.I. bill, is due to the fact that the Veterans Ad-, ministration business has doubled in the last six months. Forms were filled out and an attempt is going to be made to speed up the much needed checks. Mr. Allsop also answered questions from the veterans, and urged them to contact him at room 202 Fine Arts building in event any difficulties arise. Town Group Nears Goal In Drive Ending March 15, the WSSF drive goes into its last week with the quotas of Harborview, Edens hall, Daniels hall, Hospice Inn, and the faculty met. Last week the idea of an old fashioned box social was abandoned because there was no available date and under the leadership of Al Cochran, donation cards have been mailed to every member of the town group. Many of them have already complied and the central committee of the drive has high hopes of filling the one dollar per person goal by the end of the drive next week. Opinions Expressed On Future Plan To Change Co-op Spot By PEDIE HYATT Would you. like to see the Co-op transferred to the I. A. building* This week the roving reporter has gathered the opinion of many WWC students on the subject and generally the answers seem to be in the negative, at least* s far as the separate location, away from the main building, is concerned. However, they heartily approve of the fountain and sales enlargement. Monty Jones, of the Collegian staff, disagrees wtih the plan and one of his reasons is he doesn't believe the students will frequent a place that is located that distance from the main building/ Joanne Fisher answered with an emphatic "no", as did Wayne Sturte-vant, Joan Haggard and Art Reilly. Art said he thought the majority of students wanted it as it is now located and would not welcome the change. p\ A. Emerson, John Dorcy and Margaret Lutro, are a few of the students who liked the plan very much except 'for the popular negative attitude about having to leave the building to reach it. Many say it would ---------- WWCollegian - 1946 March 8 - Page 2 ---------- Western. Washington College of Education, Bellingham, Washington Friday, March 8; 1946' obitotoaL WHAT IS IT? To many of you the Publications Prom is just a dance. Yes, a dance on a large scale, and very extra-special, but still just a dance. To those of us who work on publications, however, it is much more. This Prom is our chance to give everyone at WWC a memorable evening. It is also an opportunity for us to show some of the high school students of the county what a college prom is like. It gives them a glimpse of college life, and is a high spot in the year's activities to many of them. The Prom is also a place where we have as patrons and patronesses, county newspaper editors and their wives, and we have faculty advisers from the high schools as well. We hope you enjoy it. We want you to. And we hope that the Prom, with the crowning of the Princess, will remain as a highlight in your memories of Western Washington College. AND THEN And after the Prom we have closed week-ends and only too soon, tests. Maybe a word to the wise is sufficient, and a mere reminder here that that time \s coming around again is all you need. We hope so. Anyway, here's the word, and the end of the quarter is just two weeks away. Keep it in mind. WiktLWRG Last Thursday night was the time for the scene of much merriment in the college gym from. 7:30 to 9:30 when the WRA held its Sports Party. Six volley ball teams enjoyed themselves batting the ball back and forth over the net. The pool was loaded with swimmers and the badminton courts were overrunning. It was suggested that, seeing that such a high amount of interest was shown, the various clubs in school should sponsor the rec hours every Thursday night and might even spend a little and provide refreshments. The WRA held a cabinet meeting Tuesday evening. The main topic of conversation was improving the WRA cabin on Sinclair Island. Applications are still being taken for membership in Blue Barnacles. All girls interested in joining please contact Margaret Whitaker. If you are interested in participating in a preliminary swimming meet, sign up on the WRA bulletin board. You will be assured of a good time. ESTABLISHED 1899 Published Every Friday, Except During the month of September, by the Associated Students.

Yep, St. Patrick's Day is the theme of the year's biggest social event, the Prom, so bring your friends and have a super time. I say friends because from the looks of the Prom book that is what all the men are bringing. That could mean someone else's girl, or maybe they are just secretive. 'Diek Fackler is different, though, he's bringing a radio. (Clint Nunamaker's gonna hate you!) Of course he might mean the same girl he had at Civic Music, and that little model is equipped with-television. No kiddin', she was cute. Dick Brunswig says he is taking Beats Me. She must be hew this quarter. Dan Walker pessimistically wrote in "Unknown" hag. so the gal he goes with can really be mad at him. There was standing room only at the ballet last Friday. Russ Skid-more and Eleanor .Harrington seemed to be enjoying themselves. And then there was Pat Bliss, who dropped her shoe in the middle of the performance and had to crawl around to find it. People have asked me to be sure not to forget to mention Janice. Jacoby's report on why every woman needs three husbands. Don't let those vets get you confused, Janice, the speech class really enjoyed it. Mighty sunny in the South isn't it, Barb? Dale Ackley feels that it is only right to report that two Edenites go over to the Doghouse in their pajamas quite frequently . . . I might add, that if you must wear them, at least press them. Those rumpled collars are very unbecoming. Bev McNally was McNally at its best this week-end . . . Ray is out of the hospital, obviously. After posting little notes by the telephone and stuff, Buddy Bain has had the better half here at Edens in the skin. Cy' Systma will try anthing. Seems. Anne told her. to try peanuts and coke for- that glowing feeling and she tried it. Didn't faze Cy. Is that what makes Cy' look that way in the morning Remember the Publications Prom is tomorrow night . . . see ya then! Faults, Faults, Faults But Still Not Bad Last week you read that scathing comment on the idiosyncrasies of the little woman. Today we are going to have the opposite topic; sort of a character analysis. And believe me, we have lots of characters to work with. Collectively. WWC men. Namely, the Hayward-Coch-ran -Wise - Keplinger -Tubbs-Reilly- Beecroft-Woodruff type. Or to be more specific, the four kinds of men . . . the handsome, the ones with cars, the intellectual, and the majority. Now, men are those hopped-up individuals, not from the hops you find in beer, not much! . . . who think that college women are just a bunch of fad-fierce bobby soxers who, when given an inch, will make a bathing suit out of it. But when you start working in the retrospect, (different from the WPA) you'll find that college men are just the same, only worse. They'd rather be looked-over than over-looked, too. Why do you think they go around in this'dirty old cold rain without hats? To keep those beautiful waves in place. (Alright, so you know a better way . . . restrict them, on the base.) And on the other hand, catch those five o'clock shadows when they come after you on a date. Oh, sure, they always have an answer. You ask them why they didn't shave and they say, "I did shave . . . just bej fore I came over here to wait for you." Then take these loud ties they use to put on the dog with. One more color and they'd be strong enuff to strangle them. Of, course, we can't say much about the striped and plaid socks they wear, because they speak for themselves. But the think I have against college men mostly, is that they wait until Saturday to ask you to go to something that happened on Friday. Or else they don't ask you at all, which is worse. Or else, you have to ask them, which is—well! and ---------- WWCollegian - 1946 March 8 - Page 3 ---------- UH the Oaii . . bywayne THERE JUST ' A W T NO MO'—Another season has come and gone for the valiant Viks, vitamin-liners, Lappy's boys or whatever you ..want to call them. After all is said and done, it wasn't such a bad season at £hat. Wark Co. ended up the season with a total of twelve wins and the same .number of defeats. This may not look too good on paper but before we judge too hastily let's take a gander at some of the opposition the Viks had to contend with. Their first two defeats of the season were inflicted by the University of British Columbia Thunderbirds, judged by many to be the finest team on the West Coast. Four more of the losses came at the hands of the €wo Pacific'Coast conference teams, the U. of Washington and Washington State College. Neither of these two teams did too well in their conference but neither of them beat the Vikings by very decisive scores either. Most of the Viking squad were of the opinion that, with a little luck, they would have grabbed off the second game with the Huskies played in the Seattle .pavilion. Captain Roy finished up his collegiate basketball career in a blaze of glory, scoring 171 points in 16- conference games. He was followed by Gayle Whitsell, Meridian's gift to Western Washington, and Sid Van Sinderen, the stalwart center. - As for next year very little can be said as it is doubtful if some of the boys will remain in school.. Wark and big Glen Smith are the only seniors1- on the squad but there are bound to be a certain number of transfers and withdrawals. , ' • • ALL-WINCO SELECTIONS: There have been some mighty fine ball players in the conference this year and maybe it's not right to try and single out five outstanding stars. Even if it is right it's a pretty hard thing to do. These selections are strictly my own, so if you think I made some unforgivable mistakes in choosing this team, you tell me and see if you can convince me. If you can, "There'll Be Some Changes Made". Here is my All-star, All-Winco team: Forwards—Roy Wark, Western; "Clipper" Carmody, Central. Center—Bob Truckey, Seattle College. Guards—Leifer and Roffler, Eastern. • • I am sure there will be no argument as to the right of Roy Wark belonging on the team. Roy has been a consistent performer on the Viking quintet for four years. He was moved to forward instead of his regular guard position to make it possible for Roffler and Leifer to remain together at guards. The other forward, "Clipper" Carmody, was one of the best shots to perform against the Viks all year. He had a total of 79 points in four games against the Vitamin kids. Bob Truckey, Seattle College center, was out the latter part of the season with a back injury. However, before he was forced to quit, he was high scorer in the league, playing with one of the weakest teams in the conference. There's not too much you can say about Roffler and Leifer except that, as I've said before, they were very definitely the smoothest working pair of guards seen in the college gym this year. t # # BOWLING: With only two days of bowling remaining in this quarter a three-way tie has developed for third place between Manca "A", Bush-nells, and Hospice "B". Bill O'Neil, bowling for Manca "A", hit a new high in collegian competition this year with a blazing 224 in his first game. O'Neil started rolling strikes on the fifth frame and struck all the way out. seven in a row. *~ • • SWIMMING MEET: Calling all swimming enthusiasts. A big swimming meet for all lovers of the water sport is to be held the 15th of this month in the college pool. Anyone interested is asked to sign his "John Henry" to the bulletin board in the main hall. Let's all get out and make this meet a big success. Here's a chance to get a little exercise and PLEASE don't keep from signing up just because you know someone in school is a better swimmer than you. • • Here's hoping, for our fellow conference-mates, the Cheney Savages, in their bid for national honors at Kansas City. Unless Pacific northwest "basketball is a lot weaker than I think it is, the Easterners should go quite a way in this tournament. I thank you, Johnnie Morton, for your very kind words. Lappenbusch Makes Team Selection Cheney's powerful Savages dominated the Viking all-opponent team picked by Coach Lappenbusch. The Easterners garnered four of the five first .team selection. Ellensburg's "Clipper" Carmody filled out the first five. Gablehouse of Cheney was placed in forward slot along with the high scoring Carmody. While Gable-house wasn't as spectacular as the Clipper, he was a rugged player and displayed a steady, dependable brand of ball. Carmody was the offensive star of the Wildcats, scoring 79 points against the Vikings in four games. " Glendenning of Cheney was selected as center because of his outstanding work under the backboard. His ability to out-jump his opponents made him especially valuable. k Leifer and Roeffler, the Savage's speed merchants, were the outstanding guards in the conference. They were outstanding shots and ball handlers as well as being unusually fast! Truckey, the leading scorer of Seattle College, is given honorable mention. He missed part of the season due to injuries but showed an outstanding brand of ball when he was able to play. Also given honorable mention were Perrault of PLC's Gladiators, and Pease and Pugh of Ellensburg. "Glub"With The Walrus Friday The time has come," the walrus said, "for me to do some swimmin'" —and he belly-flopped into the WWCE gym pool. "Mmmm! Nice pool. Now that I'm here I think I'll go in for the men's twenty-five yard dash." The meet has rolled around again, scheduled for Friday the 15 of this month. That's' closed-week-end- Friday, but won't mean that only Edens girls will be splashing around that afternoon. More men are expected to participate than women, although the Blue Barnacles individually are determined to hold their own. Anyone may enter the contests. Just sign up on the sheet posted; oh the Recreation bulletin 'board in the main hall. Sign up early, as the committee working on the meet wish to have the entries in beforehand. Mary Ann Teichreow, Mary Nix, Lee Brokaw, Paul Foster, Leonard Barnhill and Margaret Whitaker make up the swimming committee and are aided by Miss Muff ley, Mrs. Schulz and Mr. Carver. A few exhibitions which you won't want to miss will be presented during the meet in between races and relays. "Glug! I'm saturated," gurgled the walrus, coming up for air after thirty lengths in the underwater swimming exhibition, which he and Barney had entered. "Don't tell me Mr. Barnhill is still down under there somewhere. No fair! He's wearing fins." ' Sign up now! Tourney Gives Birdie Beating The men's badminton tournament started this week and will continue on into next week with the final play-offs coming probably next Thursday night at the mixed rec period. At this writing, the results' of the first round are not complete but several games have been played and it appears that the winner of the tourney will have to fight for the title. Sam Carver picks Roy Wark as the favorite. Wark and Herb Witt both drew byes in the first round of play. The tournament is of the elimination'type. Three games are played and the winner of two of the three games advances to be next bracket while the loser is eliminated. Anyone interested in seeing some fast games played should by all means be present at the rec hour next Thursday night at the college gym. That night the singles "and the doubles champions of 1946 will be determined. MEET YOUR FRIENDS at the DOG HOUSE Open Week Days and Saturdays 8 a. m. to 10:30 p. m. Sunday, 7 p. m. to 10:30 p. m.

Vike Gridsters Start Training "We.should have, a pretty tough first team," voiced Coach C. E. Lappenbusch, "but where the pinch will come is finding suitable reserves." That's the way the local football situation looks to Lappenbusch now, but he's hoping spring turnout will turn up new prospects. TURNOUTS START IN APRIL Spring football turnout starts April 3 and should last approximately two weeks. The first week will be devoted mostly to conditioning and touch football, full suits being issued the second week. According to all reports, the coming football season should.be one of the most difficult ever encountered by WWC. The season opens against CPS October 5, with the University of British Columbia the following week. UBC, with an enrollment of 5,500 should be "plenty tough," says Lappy, "and we'll really have to be in shape to win that one." Pacific Lutheran is also expected to give stiff competition with many veterans returning from the service. OUTSTANDING PROSPECTS WWC also has quite a few outstanding prospects. Among those expected to be out for spring turnout are Del Peterson and Herb Witt, a pair of experienced guards. Peterson won his letter at the University' of Washington last year, and Witt played ball, in the east. Les Smith, first string quarterback of the Viks in 1942, the last year football was played here, should take over in that postion again. Leonard Barnhill, track letterman, is also expected to be in there fighting for a line position, although his speed may be used in the backfield. Another tackle expected back for the fall quarter is Jerry Connell, a "W" letterman. LAPPY'S "T" Lappenbusch plans on using some variations of the popular "T" formation along with his standard Notre Dame style and a couple of fellows that should fall in stride with that plan are Walt Richardson and Frank Gayda. Richardson, former Bellingham high school star of 1942 and 1943 has speed to burn and should -really keep the opposition guessing. The same can be said for Gayda, hard running back from Hoquiam. DANCE AT YANKEE BALLROOM FRIDAY NIGHT Frank Javorce SATURDAY NIGHT Gordon Geer TENNIS SUPPLIES STUDENTS CO-OP TRY THE CO-OP FIRST' Keglers Speed Pace; Collegians Still Lead The Collegians maintained their slim grasp on the lead in the intramural bowling league as they downed Manca "A" 2 to 1 at the Twentieth Century Alleys Tuesday. Reilly led the Collegians in the first game with 170 while the rest of the print shop gang blazed away with pretty fair -accuracy to run the team total up to 808, high team average for the day. Manca "A's" O'Neil bowled seven consecutive strikes in the second game to salvage one point for his teammates. Manca "B" held on to its second place berth by picking up two points Students Sign For Swimming Carnival Anyone who likes to swim and enjoys a little competition is urged to sign up for the intramural swim meet to be held here Friday, March 15, at 4 p. m. All you have to do to be eligible is sign the slip of paper on the bulletin board in the main hall. Four teams are to be chosen, two men and two women, and all contestants will be divided equally on these teams. Paul Foster and Don Packard will head the men's teams. The women captains have not been chosen. Everyone who likes to swim is urged to participate whether he is an outstanding swimmer or not.

HOSPICE INN '•'.'• Well happy day and only two weeks to go. That is why you have seen the library so full. Now let. us see what we have on the agenda . . . first of all, at our house meeting held Wednesday evening it was decided that next quarter we will have a tennis tournament at the house.'. In case people are beginning to wonder what,was happening Sunday of last week, some lucky person had some film and you know what that leads to . . . well, neither do I. Now what about the characters who were out golfing on Saturday. Honorable mention goes* to Jim "Jughaid" Maricle, who is just learning. Then we have people like Paul Poster, who likes to go wading. Of course he said he was looking for golf balls, but that is a likely answer. You ask about the gym class that goes on at the inner sanctum. Not to mention any- names, but to be perfectly Prank, thouse push-ups are sure a lot of work . . . G i l Kugel was heard to remark, "I will be able to do my student teaching the first quarter of my junior year." Well, take it from one who knows, if you can survive that you can do anything. It seemed to be the unanimous opinion of the house members that it would be a toss-up as to who is the better dancer. No names to'be mentioned. Big Jim Gilroy has been holding up his end of the bargain, because so far as I am concerned he still has the championship. (This is to repay for two weeks ago.) The question as to who has a phobia for tying shoes together is still unanswered. Someday I expect to wake up tied in my bed. Well, as the boys all begin to leave the meeting, I struggle up to my room and fall into bed. DANIELS HALL Yumping yimminy, I feel so goot I could yump up and down, and holler hooraw. Why? 'cuz this is the week that myself, and all the troops at Daniels get to take our regular Sunday go to meeting gals to the big (girls wear their nightgowns) prom. I n other words—the Publications Prom. This business of formality is really raising havoc at our house. I saw Jerry Pells and Dale Ackley sleeping on their suits so they would have that razor sharp crease effect. Also saw Roy Wark washing his socks. Some of the boys are even getting desperate and taking baths this week. Even my girl-friend Amber was seen trying on her formal, and putting up her hair, so.ifydu see a hep kitty out there tripping the light fantastic, don't be surprised, that's Amber. A new addition to the house of Daniels is little Bobbie Partlow, my big brother. He is 98 pounds of all man. He is planning to attend WWC next fall. He was just discharged from the navy last Saturday, and "would start to school sooner but he can't get his girl off his mind long enough to study. He spends so much time fighting with her now that her diary looks like a scrapbook. Welcome to the house of Daniels, Bob. Len Barnhill was a guest of the Kiwanis club in Mount Vernon last week. . He made a speech on underwater demolition, which he is quite an authority on, as he was one of those things during the war. I always knew he was all wet, but I didn't think he would come to the point of giving a speech on it. Joe told me the other day that most of the coeds at this institute were drowning in the ocean of love without a buoy to cling to. Amber told me not to smoke Ha, ha, I don't She told me not to drink Ha, ha, I don't , She told me not to listen to a naughty joke Ha, ha, I don't She told me not to stay out late and neck Ha, Ha. Well troops, I'm off. You don't have to agree, do you? Keep smilin'. Lovely Lassie Gains Honor This week the spotlight shifts to pick up another lovely lassie of WWC, namely Gloria Carey of Bell-ingham. She's a prom princess candidate with lots of poise and the fair possessor of big blue eyes. Her complexion is one of the magazine varieties, the loveliest ever. Ames, Iowa, was the city in which she first saw the light and Belling-ham has since become her home. She attended Bellingham h i gh school where she was president of the Torch club and vice-president of the Girl Reserves. Besides all this she was the' business manager of the Bellingham high school yearbook, the Shuksan. This competent, active 5 feet eight girl is Miss Piatt's assistant in the Bacteriology department. She loves to ride and fellows—she's not attached. She doesn't seem to plan on being a careerist, though she has a remarkablely intelligent mind and would undoubteaiy make a success in any endeavor. WWC is very fortunate in claiming Gloria Carey as a coed. Elizabeth Douglas, popular student and WWC graduate in 1943, and now a script writer at KOMO, has as one of her written programs the "Across Horizons," a 15-minute Seattle p u b l i c service program, broadcast each Monday evening.

Her full length net veil was caught to a halo of satin and net and she carried white orchids and rosebuds. s Miss Inga Von Bargen, acting as the bride's only attendant, wore pale pink mpusseline de soie, arid carried a nosegay of violets and pink rosebuds. Lieutenant Eugene Huge of Woodside,' N. Y., served as the best man. A reception was held at the Four Hundred club and then the bride and groom left for a short wedding trip. The bride wore a moss green suit with brown accessories for the trip. The couple plan to return to Bellingham in April when Mr. Von Bargen receives his- discharge from the navy. Both the bride and groom graduated from Bellingham high school and attended Western Washington College of Education. Mrs. Von Bargen was student body president of the college and also studied at Mills College, Oakland, California. Before entering active service with the navy. Mr. Von Bargen attended the University of Washington. Ptom Patteh, Dress will be informal . . . girls will wear semi-formals; suits or uniforms will be in order for the boys. Not even the faculty will wear tuxes. Please remove all heel and toe plates from shoes. These are very detrimental to the floor. Dates are in order, but corsages are optional (awful nice though).

Dr. Silverman received his A.B. degree from Stanford university, his M.A. from theUniversity of California, and, in 1938, his Ph.D. in biochemistry from Stanford. Besides researchwork on such diverse subjects as synthetic sugars, anesthetics, petroleum derivatives, industrialpoisons, and war gases, he 'Children Limited' Publication Ready "Children Limited," a new bookletdescribing the limitations and the abilities of mentally retarded children, has just been published by theWashington Association for Retarded Children, it was announced by Harold H. Watkins, president.Copies are available from from the state office of the association, 4008 Arcade Building, Seattle 1, or from the local chapter. "This newly revised edition of our basic descriptive booklet is fresh evidence thatthere is indeed hope for retarded children," Mr. Watkins said. "When the previous edition was published,somewhat over two years ago, the story was one of forgotten childrenâ€”forgotten, that is. except bytheir parents and a handful of friends. Today, while there are still many needs to be met, the people ofour state have begun to learn that retarded children can be helped." Most of the 16-page booklet(expanded from the earlier 12-page edition) is devoted to the "children limited" of the titleâ€”theyoungsters "whose minds will never fully develop, like a wall left unfinished." While existing servicesfor the mentally retarded are described as "tragically meager," the booklet calls attention to gains ofrecent years, and to the role of the state and national associations.

Principals Conclude ConferenceToday The five-day conference of junior high school principals ends at noon today with a concludinggeneral session. Approximately 40 principals, representing all parts of the ference. The principals, inthe work sessions, have been studying the role of -junior high schools in the educational program.Dr. Lyle Stewart, assistant superintendent of Seattle schools, delivered the opening^ addressMonday on "The Role of the Junior High School in Modern Education." Dr. J. Alan Ross wascoordinator of the conference. Consultants included Herbert Hearsey, reference librarian, and WernerDieckmann and Max Berger of the state office of public instruction. New Lakewood Gear Enjoyed ByPicnickers Steaks were the center of attraction at Lakewood, Wednesday evening, to forty-fivestudents and guests from the principal's conference. The group was the first to enjoy the new furniturebought with ASB funds for the college property. The rattan furniture and a new paint job for the cabin arepart of a series of improvements done on the property. The steakfry was sponsored by the summerrecreation program. Before eating the steaks, which they cooked themselves, members of the partywent swimming and boating. "The weather was nice," commented Dean Bill McDonald, "and we allenjoyed ourselves. We cooked our steaks to suit ourselves and really had a fine time." McDonaldreminds any students desiring to use the Lakewood property that the keys to the cabin can beobtained at the switchboard in the President's office. "With the good weather we're having now, it's. areal shame not to take advantage of the place," added the dean. Teachers Complete Ten Day HomeEconomics Workshop â€¢ Fourteen Home E c o n o m i cs teachers from all parts of the state,completed a unique ten-day workshop Wednesday afternoon. This is the first time such a program has been offered at Western, according to Miss Linda Cauntryman, Director of Home EconomicsDepartment The purpose of this workshop was to offer apportunity for experienced teachers to bringthemselves up-to-date on the newest methods of teaching ^omemaking at the junior and senio* hijj^levels. It also gave an opportunity to renew teaching certificates. The work was designed not only forGeneral Homemaking but also for the federal reimbursed program (vocational homemaking). Eachmember of the group planned an entire curriculum for a two-year program ^Ijeginning in the eighth orninth grade. TECHNIQUES IN MOANING Each morning was spent in disr cussion of various teachingtechniques. A "break" was provided for coffee and social chat. Throughout the entire ten-day period,education of the whole child was stressed, continually giving recognition to the inter-relations of family,community, and the whole school with its Homemaking program. Miss Lucy McCormack, director ofhome economics, Spokane public schools, directed this workshop. Miss Linda Countryman acted aschairman. The fourteen members were: Carol Cornish, Mrs. Trula Smith, Mrs. Laila Wilson, Mrs.Margaret Sherwood, all from Bellingham; Mrs. Jean Crowther and Marguerite Hooper from Prosser;Elborg Moe and Mrs. Gayle Reitan, Tacoma; Mrs. Delores Norman, Burlington; Mrs. Mary DeBoer,Lynden; Mrs. Crystal Harworth, North Port; Mrs. Marvel Purdy, Snohomish; Mrs. Magnhild Sunset fromParkland and Mrs. Ruth Palmer of Sedro Woolley. INDIVIDUAL PROBLEMS Each member of theworkshop chose a special problem in which she needed additional help. She spent her afternoons inresearch, in conference and reading. Final reports were made on each problem. These reports werethen shared with the whole class. Special visitors who brought information to the group were; Mrs.Margaret Hanney of the Washington State Dairy council, Seattle; Carl Hamelin from the socialsecurity office in Bellingham; and Miss Miriam Peck of the art department of WWCE. One eveningwas spent by the group at Lummi Island. They went out in boats to watch reef netters casting their netsfor fish. The evening commenced with a Salmon barbecue at the Willows. Miss Countryman feels thatthe ten-day workshop has been very valuable to those concerned and that more programs of this typemay continue in the future years. ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1955 August 5 - Page 2 ---------- â€” f w Newcomers (ZatiAvgi By Interpreting Profs oras By BOB BOWMAN The Registrar's bulletin ofany college should list a course for freshmen entitled "Techniques of Professor Evaluation No. 101,"Why educational institutions do not list such a course is a mystery which may some day be solved by a Congressional committee, for the value of such a class to students would be beyond estimation.The class would have one major objective, to teach the student tcr quickly and accurately evaluate thecharacter and idiosyncrasies of individual college professors. Without such instruction most students spend month's and even years of uncertainty regarding what to expect from a new prof and never domake a satisfactory adjustment to his teaching. . In the absence of such a course I would like to outlinea plan which may be of value to new students desiring aid in this vital area. (Lest someone challenge my authority in this field I point with pride to the fact that I spent many extra quarters here in an attemptto obtain a degree. If, indeed, we learn by doing, my authority should be supreme for I have observedmore profs in action than many Ph.D's.) My plan of evaluation is simple; the student should listencarefully for revealing statements made during the first hour of instruction. I have listed seven of themost common of these statements and the appropriate action, if any, which may be taken by thestudent. As. time progresses the observant scholar can add many new clues to his list but these should act as 74Je4te%tt, Tifontd t? $me In an assembly at the beginning of this summer quarter, Dr. Haggardpresented a quotation to the effect that "college is an organized opportunity for self-education." Now, inthe closing weeks of the quarter, perhaps we could evaluate our summer experiences in terms of thatquotation. How often do you hear remarks like these when classes and instructors are beingdiscussed?â€”"He skips around too much . . . too much theory, not enough techniques . . . I don't knowwhat he wants . . ." Such remarks indicate that the speaker is out of step with the "self-education" ideacontained in the quotation. They seem to come from people who expect knowledge, skills, andunderstanding to be presented in neatly wrapped and designed packages for mass consumption. Do we,as teachers, come to summer school looking for someone to "give" us little tricks-of-the-trade useful invery specific situations? Or do we expect teacher-training to provide us with generalizations andprinciples which we can thoughtfully apply, on our own, to any specific situation? The definition of college as "an organized opportunity for self-education" implies that the responsibility for success andachievement of his goals rests solely upon the student: the college is an organized opportunity in that itprovides the resourcesâ€”the facilities and the faculty; the self-education end of the definition implies thatthe student is free to make whatever use he can of those resources. The opportunity is wasted if he does not exploit those resources to the fullest degree. * * * * CONDITIONED RESPONSE The joker of theweek is the grad student who presented members of a seminar with 16 rules for child-training. His fellow-students agreed that the rules were very sound. He then.revealed his source: a manual on dog-training.LITTLE MAN ON CAMPUS By Bibler Say, coach, I understand you're looking for a tall center for yourbasketball team/' an introduction. Following is a list of statements of which you must bewarec 1."Grades really don't matter; it's the information you acquire that counts." This is probably the mostpopular fiction of college professors. You will hear it over and over again until the day you are called tothe Dean's Office to be put on probation. No action is required on your part, just sit by and don't bemisled. 2. "The only stupid question is the question unasked." This noble assertion is designed as aclever trap. Woe betide the unwise soul who asks a question, any question, in this man's presence.He will immediately have his poor bewildered brain spread out for the amusement of the class. Better tounask a stupid question than to risk mental dissection-with an intelligent one. 3. "If you disagree withme, say so." Watch the prof's eyes light up when he says this! Also note that the successful studentsalways agree with him. They have probably watched the crucifixion of someone who disagreed and wishto avoid a similar fate. Proper action on your f gt;art: nod your head in obvious agreement. 4. "I think we might do a bit of research on this subject." The joker in this sentence is the word "bit." You .have never dreamed that such a small word covers such a large area. The thing for you to do is to trot over to thelibrary and reserve a pew. Find one near a calendar for it's nice to watch the days drag by. 5. "The text is very poor but we will survey it anyway." Don't let this comment mislead you. In addition to knowingevery thing the author says, you will be expected to know what is wrong with what he says. This is realjy very difficult because everyone is right sometimes and finding what is wrong with what is right . . . Skipit. Drop the class. 6. "Tests really mean very little so . . ." This sounds- good the first time you hear itbut never again. Some of the things that can be done in lieu of tests' shouldn't happen to a goat. If youhave a choice, take a test, any tesfr 7. "I am inclined' to give7 a subjective test." The awful application of this comment are too" dreadful to put on paper. Ask any upper classmen what this instructor means,then show up the last day of the quarter with, a dozen pencils and a box of aspirins. Probably the listabove should be entitled, "The Sevenfold Path to Collegiate Achievement" and mem-' orized by everycollege boy. It springs directly from the somewhat hardened heart of one who has disregarded grades,asked stupid questions, disagreed with professors, surveyed texts and "Related literature," and takensubjective tests. Now excuse me, I have an appointment with the Dean. 'Man Called Peter CarriesBriefcase With Political Slant By JOE HARTOUGH After listening to Dr. Kelley's remarks last weekabout the individual dignity of man, I decided to look around. I even asked myself if it were possible thereare othersâ€”besides myselfâ€”to whom I should pay attention. It took a bit of doing; but I foundsomebody, Lawrence J. Peter, a Canadian, from the Province of British Columbia, a city called Burnabywith 70,000 population. If you want to look up to someone, you'll like Mr. Peter. He stands 6 feet, 5inches, and weighs 203 pounds. Some of Peter'sâ€”that's what his friends call him â€” more distinctivecharacteristics are: his leisurely gait and a slight list to the port or starboard, depending upon which sidehe carries his rather worn charcoal brief case; his brown almost ebony hair and a matching mustachewhich revealâ€”upon close inspectionâ€”scattered flecks of grey; his brown eyes with a mischievous1jovial tinge accentuated by dark rimmed spectacles. He usually wears khaki trousers, a casual shirt andan inceptive grin. Though soft-spoken Peter is not one who imposes his ideas on others, he seems tohave definite thoughts on most subjects and imparts these thoughts quite willinglyâ€”with or withoutprovocation. For example, he is attending college primarily so he can acquire a certificate signifying hishead is full. That is, he wants a paper that will guarantee a lifetime of adequate knowledge for allsituations. APPROVES OF TWO In commenting on sex, Peter especially approves of there being two.Yet this raises the problem of determining which one is the opposite sex, no mean task! In philosophyPeter says there are no absolutes. Everything is relative; and that's, final! He disposes of Americans by saying, "They have ants in their pants." Nor is Peter silent on religious matters. He champions the cause of justice and vents righteous indignation at every form of evil. He describes sin as a horrible thing ofwhich he is incapable and for which he has no desire. BRIEF CASE POLITICS His thoughts on politics if not profound are at least consistent. He leans toward the right or left, depending on which side he holdshis brief case; and' he is reactionary or not, depending on the strength of the stimulus. By this time youhave probably guessed Peter's profession. If you ask him for his card, he gives you a slip with theinscription "Lawrence J. Peter, Professional Gentleman." Then he goes on to tell how he used to be acabinet maker. In fact he built his own home, a ranch style job made of logs. Then he stopped working fora living and began teaching. From there he went to his present position as counselor in the secondlargest high school in Canada. The one larger school is the School of Hard Knocks. It seems that the less Peter works, the more money he makes. Peter has some hobbies too: wood-carving, dog-training, andphotography. He also likes to play the piano although he never started taking lessons until he wasthirty-two. With only seven years of practiceâ€”Peter is now thirty-nineâ€”he can readily tell the blackkeys from the white. What's more, he confidently predicts that before another seven years he: will knowwhen to tread on what pedal. Who says you can't teach an old dog new tricks? His family consists of his lovely wife and two boys, ages five and eight; The elder- of these two* John Peter,, will receive some timethis year a; Meritorious Conduct Medai; from the; hands of Mr; Massey, Governor General and chiefscout of Canada. In an episode, where John's younger brother doused himself with, stove oil* thencontacted fire, and'became a living ipr.ch, John had the presence; of mind to extinguish the flames byrolling Him in the,sand. Peter is as proud.as; a Peacock and thinks his: son is a chip of the or block,./â€¢ Yet as much as Peter loves his children and wife, the most important member of his family is hisdog, a Bull Mastiff. This dog has a degree and is by far the most intelligent member of Peter's household: In case you should want to meet Peter, make a t r ip over to the swimming pooj^ny afternoonexcept'Friday from 3:30 till 5:00. Peter is there trying to take off some excess weight. He has lost 40pounds in four months which isn't a bad start. If you have trouble starting a conversation, ask him about the opposite sex.

For the summer Collegian not to run them is a disgrace to one of the outstanding papers of Whatcom county. But since no one writes to the editor, it occurs to me that I will have to dothe job myself.

Take, for instance, this first grade: Theteacher told me that she had gotten everything from slugs to.cats. You want to hear about it? It mightgive you a few ideas in dealing with similar experiences. I will refer to the teacher as Teacher, since this is what her students called her. Anyhow, Teacher teaches first grade in a Washington school. Lastyear she had a class full of loveable, enthusiastic children. They liked her very much and occasionallyvarious members brought her gifts from Mother Nature. One day, one of the children placed in front ofher a shiny black slug. As it slowly glided across her desk it left a nice long silvery trail of goo. Teacher, a very placid soul, thanked the little boy. She gently smiled at .her audience. (That is what I call thegroup of onlooking expectant faces who must have been waiting to hear a shreik of horror.) She askedthem to gather in a group around the desk. Teacher told them all about the slug and how it protects itself by secreting the slime as it slides over rough surfaces. The children really got a "big charge" out of thiskind of Science lecture. They seemed to be encouraged to learn more about the Wonders of Nature.They proceeded, from time to time, throughout the year to bring additional "lecture" material. In came the snails (in their screwed up houses), the frogs, with their scaly skin and bumpy eyes; the worms, with atail on both ends; the grasshopper, spitting his brown tobacco juice, and the spider who looks like a jailbird with his black and white stripes. Each time she met the situation calmly and patiently, telling thehistory of each, that is until one morning a little boy, (I will call him Zero) presented Teacher with a,very DEAD kitten.

Zero told Teacher, "My Putty Kat died, this morning and Idon't know why, either!" Looking at the skinny, matted-haired stiff animal, she was; rather. skeptical inaccepting Zero's words at face value. She told him to take his kitty down to the janitor and he would take care of it. "Okay," said Zero and trotted out of the room carrying the kitty carefully in cupped -hands.The matter seemed closed. The next week at a PTA meeting, Teacher talked to Zero's mother, andoffered her sympathy in regards to the family pet. The mother said they had never owned a cat and shedidn't know any thing about a dead cat until the day before. She had noticed a very peculiar odor forseveral days, gradually becoming stronger, on the back porch. When the smell got unbearably strong, she began an investigation. This disclosed, way in the back of a cupboard, dead kitty. Zero finallyconfessed that he had resurrected the animal from a neighbor's garbage can.

Workshops have been conductedthroughout the week by Gwendolyn Koldofsky, with song literature and acompanying as her subjects,and William Vennard, bass, conducting a master class in singing. On Tuesday night the two artistscombined their talents to present a recital in the auditorium of the college An unusual feature of theprogram chosen by Mr. Vennard w"as the fact that it was entirely in the German language, consistingof art-songs by Schubert and Brahms. The first group contained four songs* An die Leier, Pischerweise, Der Kreuzzug and Der Zwerg which were, in turn, dramatic, gay, rich and tragic. Mr. Vennard exhibiteda voice of great warmth and color which he employed to the utmost advantage, while Mrs. Koldofskyproved herself a true artist in her interpretation of the extremely difficult accompaniments and her close affinity with the voice. Having served as accompanist to Lotte Leh-mann for a period of eight years, aswell as other artists, is sufficent proof of the quality of Mrs. Kodolf-sky's work. Three of Schubert'sGesange des Harbners, in a melancholy mood, and An Sehwager Krones, a dramatic, melodiousxace with death, with a terrific accompaniment, typifying the., coachman urging on his horses,comprised the second group, which was followed by the final Schubert songs. After the intermission themusic of Johannes Brahms rounded out the program, starting with the lovely "Minnelied," one of themost beautiful love songs ever written, which the eminent authority, H. T. Finck, said was the mostinspired, spontaneous and delightful of Brahms' vocal works. "Wir Wandelten" also deserves individualmention, with its atmosphere of close companionship as one hears, through the artisticinterpretation of the performers, the kindred spirits walking through the quiet evening to the sound ofbells that one is not quite sure are real or whether they are the essence of lovers' thoughts. - The droll"Unuberwindlich," the two nocturnes, "Sommerabend" and "Mondenschein," the vengeful "Ver-rat," apunishing song for both voice and piano, but a wonderful one to hear, and a group of Zigeunerlieder, thebest of the folksongs of this most warm and descriptive writer, PHOTOSTATS Discharges â€”Certificates Special Rates for WWC Students Bellingham Blueprinting Co.

Don is ayoung man who has earlier proved his ability by winning the intramural tennis crown at the University ofWashington. Now he adds the WWC championship to his credit. Unfortunately Don won the WWCchampionship by default. This didn't give him the competition he deserves. The tougher thecompetition the sweeter the victory. This tendency for capable men to shirk competition goes fardeeper than intramural athletics. If competition is supposed to bring out the best in those competing,to make the cream rise to the top, it is a sad commentary that the best men won't compete.. Or is theAmerican public becoming homogenized? It is not so bad if this only happens in intramuralathletics; but when it carries over into other professions, it is time for "an agonizing reappraisal." Once Americans lose the spirit of competition, the stage is set for a puppet show with one man in control.You and I are the principal puppets. Elsewhere on the intramural scene competition is keener.

It isn'tâ€” and it ought to be reclassified as a non-intoxicating drjnk, according to Dr. Leon A. Greenberg, Yale professor of physiology, whose views werepublished in the June 1955, issue of Yale's "Quarterly Journal of Studies on Alcohol." Other scientistshave objected to Greenfoerg's theory. Unconvinced by the professor's reasoning, they questionwhether a man who is "high" or "tight" isn't also drunk, and point out that beer makes people "high" and"tight." THE THEORY Dr. Greenberg reasons that in order for the alcohol blood level to be at 0.15 percent, the point at which people show consistently the "abnormal behavior" which goes with intoxication,there would have to be 2Va quarts of 3.7 (average F.

But one and one-half to two quarts is the capacity of the human stomach. Therefore,according- to the theory, Science Laboratory Is Picnic Ground By ALEEN JONES I have more fun thana picnic in my science class. Everytime the class meets we do something. On lab days we usually draw pictures on paper and name them silly names like, "polpps," "medusa," "coleriflerates,"gastrovascul-ar," and words like that. Most of the time the pictures look funny. Either we aren't artists or else the stuff actually looks funny under the microscope. Take for instance our cross-eyed Planarias(Planaria). He, or she, or it, is a special kind of worm. Man, let me tell you there's a crazy worm. They've got a pair of cross-eyes but that's not all that's Queer about the things. Last week we cut some of them up. They have a rather simple nervous system so they don't feel much pain. When they get cut up theyjust grow new parts any old place they feel like. Just like those ancient medieval dragons they canregenerate up to sixteen heads on one body. Sometimes they grow eyes in the middle of their stomachtoo. They sure get balled up. Just crazy mixed up kids I guess. Sometimes they grow a head where the tail is supposed to be and a tail where the head goes. The only trouble is that they end up with a tail oneach end and no cross eyes, so they can't see where they're going. But this really doesn't make muchdifference since they aren't going any placeâ€”except in the waste paper basket after we're done withthem. it is impossible for a person to drink enough beer at one time to become intoxicated. Dismissingthe possibility that one could become intoxicated by degrees, Greenberg points out that three quartswould have to be consumed in two or three hours, and this, he says, is physiologically unnatural."THEORY QUESTIONED Invited by the Yale group to publish their comments following Greenberg'sarticle, other scientists questioned the "mathematical precision" of the professor's reasoning. Dr. Albin Roy King, professor of philosophy, Cornell College, Iowa, credits Dr. Greenberg with merely a "feat ofword manufacture and manipulation . . . which simply makes more graphic what everybody knows,that it takes more drinking to get tight on beer than on whiskey." Comments Dr. Harry M. Tiebout, apsychiatrist and vice-chairman of the Connecticut Commission on Alcoholism: "In the eyes of most beerdrinkers such a conclusion is simple nonsense . . . They may know nothing more about their blood levelor the percentage alcohol content of the beer they drink, and they care less. What they do know isthat they get drunk on beer, using their definition." "Alcohol is alcohol in any concentration and itsregular use can lead to trouble.'"

These were graduate students having to take the A.C.E. Not that the times on the test itself would be the knife the butcher was using, but the physical condition under whichthe test was given. On one-armed chairs, the writing surfaces of which showed two decades of thedoodling and scribble-ings of students long since departed from the ivy-covered towers of di-semminations of knowledge, these students struggled. They struggled, like a one-armed juggler in aside-show, to keep in at least some close proximity, the test booklet, and the answer sheet. Theanswersheet is printed in light green ink, with small numerals to aid in machine computation, which alone is difficult enough, but combined with having to try to find questions on a booklet turned sideways, withdouble columns, and to synchronize the two . . . Any student in Ed. 501 who does not yet have aproblem, could find one without difficulty experimenting the physical conditions under which such a testis administered. There would be many wagers as to 25 to 40 per cent invalidity under these conditionsas compared with the conditions of favorability. Surely, somewhere in the building there was available aroom with tables, and good light where this test could be administered. But, perhaps this was the factor being considered in this situation?

Bill Rad-cjiffe,^ chairman, reported Thursday that between thirty and forty student workers will be needed for the work beginning tomorrow, April 23. ' :-uHe said that with that number of volunteers everyone won't have to work all the time. Some vvill work for an hour and then knock off for a while. Radcliffe stressed the fact that women will be working for the same wages as men, prob-aSiy a cup,of coffee and two doughnuts, or two cups of coffee and one doughnut. Another reason for the large number of workers was to make the lounge rejuvenation more of a social affair and not just a dreary job. Seventy dollars worth of paint and fifty dollars worth of plywood have been ordered for the improvements and changes which will include repainting the walls and adding a molding around the windows, doors, and casings. When the molding is put on, Nordic and Dutch designs will be stenciled on it. Bill wished to have plenty of volunteers, and said, "It's our lounge, so come on, let's fix it up!" Other members of the redecoration committee are: Lois French, Phil Hansen, Bob Sarvis, Hugh Slagle, and John Graham.

"We have had interviews with members of the faculty in regard to their respective fields of work. Also, the music depart-ment, both vocal and instrumental, has contributed its talent." He theft went on to say that plays have been a part of the broad-easts too, with students from the radio class and oral interpretation class taking part. Brewster himself writes the script for the quiz program "Do You Know," consisting of ten questions, based on an idea or theme. Listeners are encouraged to try their ability at home. The second half of the program is devoted to discussion of the correct answers. Saturday is the regular weekly t Campus Day Heads Chosen at Meeting Various committee heads were selected by the co-chairmen of Campus day, June Carrick and Gordie Smith, at a sommittee meeting held Monday, April 18, at 4:00 p. m. They are as follows: M a ry Lou Borchardt, Ralph Brown, assembly, with the staging and production assistance from the newly organized "Thespians"; Bud Minahan, V i c Harkoff, beard-growing contest; Gertrude Baker, Les Wilson, sports; Barbara Cozza, Ken Blakely, publicity; Barbara Hodges, Carl Carey, refreshments. Others selected were: Jean Sea-lander, Carl Markworth, prizes; Don McMullen, Maryann Bridges, transportation; Charlene Webb, John Sigurdson, tickets; Helene Shugard, Frazier Sutton, dance; June Oar-rick, Gordie Smith, clean-up. "Any volunteers on this job will be cheerfully accepted," was Miss Carrick's message to the student^ body. Gratitude was expressed by the co-chairmen to the park board for gt;, turning the Whatcom Falls park over to WWC for the entire day. Another Campus day meeting Is schedule for next week. program "College Newsweek in Review," and is put on by the radio speech class. Students are as follows: Joel Barber, Gary Brandner, Ralph Brown, Earl Ehlers, Charles Fitch, Beth Folsom, Tom Hannon, Keith Hartley, Earle Jewell, Louise Oliveri, Harry Pagels, John Sigurdson, Phyllis Threlkeld. Brewster hopes to broadcast four days a week next fall if KVOS is willing to allot the time. He wishes to add a poe'try program and a regular dramatic offering. In conclusion the speech instructor declared that next year, along with radio speech and radio broadcasting, there will be a course offered in radio script writing. H. S. Juniors Feted Today Career day, being held today at WWC, is jointly sponsored by this college; Delta Kappa Gamma society, Lambda chapter; and high school administrators in the northwest section of the state. Twenty-one high schools from Skagit, Sno homish, and Whatcom countries are represented here today. This event is part of an extended' plan to provide for high school juniors of special promise the opportunity to view the field of education in terms of a career-plan. The program is as follows: 9 a. m., greetings and registration; 10:15 a. m., assembly in campus school auditorium; 10:30 a. m„ tour of departments; 12 noon, luncheon at Edens hail 4t which Pat EUesperman from Seattle will speak^ jl^OV p. m. department tour continue^'; 2 p. m„ conference by high schools; 2:3Q p. in., gymnasium and mixer for all. The first Career day was held on May 7, 1948, with fifteen high schools from this area participating. Dr. Douglas Kelley, Psychiatrist, On Program Tues. Psychiatry has changed its attitude greatly regarding both individuals and groups, as a result of the war. This is the idea expressed by Dr. Douglas Kelley, noted psychiatrist and professor at Wake Forest college, who will speak here next Friday, April 29. During the war Dr. Kelley served as a lieutenant colonel in the army medical corps. He was chief consulting psychologist and acting consulting psychiatrist of the European theater before his appointment as psychiatrist to the Nuremburg jaU. It was in this capacity that he examined the minds of leading German war criminals, and as a result of his findings wrote the book "22 Cells in Nuremburg." The California-born psychiatrist received his B. A. from the University of California, and four years later earned his medical degree there. His background includes work in the university hospital, followed by a \ period in New York where he practiced at the State Psychiatric Institute and Hospital, and the New, York Neurological Inr stitute. In addition, Dr. Kelley was a research fellow in neurology at Columbia university, where in 1841 he received the i doctorate in medical science. Western Saphoiri^ Nbr Ni^miiiee # Festival Candidate „ Janet Harris, sponsored^ by the WWC Norsemen, will enter the annual queen contest for the Blossom Time Festival^ May 11-14; as a representative of the college. The queen and her court are judged and chosen for their beauty, talent, and personality; the nine contestants appearing before the public Wednesday evening, May 11, at the civic auditorium. They will appear in bathing suits and for-mals, present a short talk, and give a demonstration of their talent. Miss Harris, of Snohomish, has been studying voice for six years, is a sophomore at WWC, and is enrolled in education as a music major. Cornerstone to Be Laid Soon A "double feature" cornerstone laying • program will be held on the WWC campus May 20. The 10 a. m. event will include two complete ceremonies within an hour, it was announced by Dr. Haggard this week. The first feature, with Dr. Haggard presiding, will take place outside the new Arts building just south of the campus school. A member of the state legislature, a college trustee, and the building's architect will be among the honored dignitaries. Gus Pagels will represent the student body. The second program will be held in front of the Auditorium and Music building, being constructed across High street from the main campus. Again guests will include a legislator, a trustee and an architect, with Fred DeBruler representing the student body. Band music will herald the beginning of the first program with the choir held in reserve to start the second. ^ No information has been released about the stone's contents. The items will probably include a history o! the building, the cost, and some memento of the fiftieth anniversary year. The situation Is unique not only because of its "double header" nature, but also because it falls on the fiftieth anniversary year of the college. J. C.s Visited by WWC Registrar At the invitation of the Washington Asociation of Junior Colleges, Don Ferris, WWC registrar, has been visiting the various junior colleges throughout the state this week. Accompanying Ferris on his tour were George Wallace, Eastern Washington college registrar, and Edward Rogel, Central Washington college registrar. The purpose of these visits to the junior colleges was to inform the second year students of the teacher education courses offered by the state colleges of education. Discussions were held with the students, and the registrars were prepared to answer any questions regarding teacher training. Colleges visited were: Monday, Olympia junior college at Bremerton; Tuesday, Grays Harbor college at Aberdeen; Wednesday, Lower Columbia junior college at Long-view, and Centralia juniorr college at CentraUa: Thursday, Clark college at Vancouver; and Friday, Everett junior college at Everett. - M PtmdeW Candidates on Final Ballot "Nominations for ASB president for the 1949-50 school year have taken an unprecedented turn," election chairman Fred De Bruler informed the Board of Control Wednesday. "Since only three men, John Sigurdson," Art Runestrand, and Bill Jones; were nominated, their names will not appear on the primary ballot," DeBruler continued. He" explained that the purpose of the primary elections is to narrow the field down to three candidates, and that the names of. the 4hree nominees would automatically be moved up to the general ballot in the present case. Several presidential nominees were eliminated because they have not been in attendance at WWC for the required four quarters, he added. NOMINATIONS GIVEN DeBruler reported that the nominations for other ASB offices are as follows: vice-president, Phyllis Armstrong, Ann Pearson, John Pill, Roger Hubb, and Loren Rankin; four-quarter man or woman, Mary Pagels, Phyllis Armstrong, Ed Hick-enbottom, Bill Kearns, Gbrdie Smith, Charlie Borden, Cec Hannon, and George Rudes; four-quarter woman, Rollin Geske, Pauline Roser, Joel Barber, Rosemary Wert-man, Catherine Redmond, Alice Robbins, Barbara Hodges, Lola Samuelson, and Rosalie Stoerchli. The newly-formed Thespian club submitted a request for use of the student lounge, at board expense, for a club meeting the evening of Tuesday, April 26. The board decided that it could not finance club meetings in the lounge, but that the club could meet there at its own expense if desired. Ten dollars and ninety-one cents was appropriated to pay WWC's half of the fire insurance on Kulshan cabin, which is on the slope of Mount Baker. The Mount Baker Hiking club, joint owner of the cabin, will furnish an equal amount. Board members suggested that the cabin's location and availability.be publicized so that students will become aware of this facility. Datelmii e Friday, April 22—Career Day. Pep assembly.

Other Papers Sound Off Too (For those readers of the Collegian who have felt more than once that we have bitten off more, than we can chew in our editorials, we reprint this, editorial from the April 13 issue of the Washington State Evergreen. Seems we aren't the only ones.) Criticism has come to the Evergreen for its recent editorials. It has been said that the Evergreen put the college in bad light; that the editorials were poor public relations. We contend that the poor public relations already existed. The Evergreen gave the college poor publicity. The trouble exists within the administrative setup. The primary canons of good public relations are to "do good" and secondly, to tell other people about it! Let us see what has been done about the second. In the phrase of President Compton, "the student comes first." Therefore it would seem, would it not, that the student should be the first to know what is going on in his institution? Governor Langlie apparently is quite aware of the importance of keeping the people informed of the workings of their government. Speaking before the Spokane WSC alumni recently he said, "We cannot do our jobs unless the people have an understanding of where the money comes from and where that money goes." And we students want to know and be allowed an understanding of where the money comes from and where the money goes in our organization. We ask questions. We wonder where there is evidence of the philosophy that "the student comes first." Public relations begin at home. Information is one of the cardinal vehicles of public relations. Students should be the first recipients of news from the administration. The Evergreen can be the means by which students receive that news. It seems the first thing that must be done then is putting our own house in order. Then the publicity which the institution receives will naturally be good publicity. Public relations begins at home . . . The Proper To Write An Anniversary Hymn By GABY BRANDNER In view of the current campaign on the campus to find a new hymn type alma mater song for WWC, here are some excerpts from a forthcoming pamphlet entitled How to Write Songs and Why. It will be distributed to students enrolled in Social Drinking 101 and their families. PBOPEB MOOD IMPERATIVE The first essential for writing a college song is to get oneself running smoothly . . . To phrase it another way . . . oiled. With these pre^ liminaries out of the way, you are-ready to begin. The general theme of a college alma mater must sing the praises of the old school, tell how you love the tree shaded lanes and the ivy covered professors, and how you will hate to leave it all. If you are sick of college life and will be only, too happy to kiss it all goodbye, try some other field. Your talent doesn't lie in writing alma maters. GLORIOUS COMRADESHIP \ One type of college song is that glorifying comradeship of men. Something like this: "To the tables down at Bobby's, To the place where Elmer dwells, To the dear old panelled bar we love so well Sing the Norsemen there assembled with their glasses raised on high And the song that they are singing sounds like ." But there are other types of songs too. PINNACLE SUCCESS So if this contest is successful there will be a new alma mater to sing when steins are lifted to dear old Western. And someday, perhaps, our song may reach that lofty goal of all college songs . . Rudy Vallee may sing it. o : A man visited a friend for the first time, and was amazed to find one child ripping upholstery off a brand new divan, a second child driving nails into an expensive table, and a third swinging from a chandelier. Bewildered, he turned to his host. "I say, don't you find it rather expensive to let your children play like that?"—"Not at all," replied the father cheerfully. "I get the nails wholesale." Leonard Nudson This is C. Aubrey Hopper who has been getting a little head start on this year's Campus day beard growing contest. Although you may not be able to beat his crop of foliage, give it a try. Rumors have it that Claude (as his friends call him) will be disqualified on certain legal grounds, so you still have a chance to win.. . . Remember, Campus Day on May 16!

'.,-;'•• If this can be termed "tribute," then it is a tribute to ijtale man's courage. To the courage that took him before he had reached the age of twenty to the battlefields of World War II; to the courtage that helped him to live the life of an infantryman, arid finally to the courage that took him to the Philippines and the battle of Leyte. For it was at Leyte that Leonard Hudson, along with others, met the best that the enemy could offer, and won. But in winning, he paid the price that sometimes only the brave payj*- the highest measure of a soldier's devotion to duty. And let noi one say that he had to, that duty had anything to do with it. Ask the man who stood before gunfire; he knows. . :r^ It was the same quiet, unassuming courage that kept him waiting after being wounded, waiting until the corpsmen brought/ assistance. And it was courage that took him home again. Home again to face the ordeal of whatever the "home folks" would think of one who came back not as he went away. The shrapnel wound of Leyte didn't heal. It became malignant. Finally, it was coura|| that brought Leonard face to face with the knowledge that shrap^ nel infection had become cancer. In 1946, his right arm and should^ er were amputated, and he learned to do more with his left hand than most do with both hands. He built toys for children, hobby horses for his own, and for others; he learned to type, and he carried on just as he had before. But it didn't stop there. He faced with courage the knowledge that this battle he was fighting might be a losing battle. He underwent operation after operation, but he lived:each day to the fullest. An avid nature-lover, he sought and found the choicest of early spring flowers; he was the first to de^- tect the beauty of a sunset or the radiance of sunrise. He loved those who were weak; those who were young. He delighted in helping their eager minds grow, and in turn they loved him because he made their paths straighten Perhaps it was therefore fitting and right that in the early spring, April 13, 1949, Leonard passed into immortality. But h$- left behind a legacy of courage and faith that will never die. In a last gesture to show humanity to man, Leonard directed that his body be turned over to cancer research, in the hope that througlj his sufferings others might live. Authorities Recognize Value Of Collegiate Bull Session. One of the oldest college institutions is coming into its own. The traditional "bull session" has gained recent recognition in Life through an article entitled "Intercollegiate Bull Session," and Dr. Paul Wood-ring, head of the psych, department, has also labeled the bull session as a very valuable method of study. The bull session has always been peculiarly a college possession. Its topics range from study subjects to the future of the country, sex, an lt;i communism. It«has usually been characterized by some students with at least one serious thought in their minds sitting around and hashing it out. Although some people have 'expressed their doubt as to what good may come of these gatherings, many others would definitely disagree with the scoffers. However, this is not to be coil-' (Continued on Page 8) "1 r-*- @o*$tmo*t Scent* . . ty «*l$ Hess Executed, Wolf Takes Over!! ;; FINIS To make a long story short, dear reader, let it be known among bur comrades that investigation of subversive activities centered in our feathered nest on the second floor has forced the cancellation 6f column known as Chop Suey by comrade Hess, said column and said author havr ing been found to have capitalistic interests which are detrimental: to our cause.

The stories and poems contained iii this issue were selected from material submitted by twelve institutions throughout the state. Work from nine colleges and universities was used." V j a m e s H. O'Brien, of the WWC English department, asked to nave someone from the Collegian staff give a review or criticism of the Profile. Consequently I was chosen. I will give my opinions and concepts of the material in the magazine. Perhaps they won't .agree with your ideas, but who knows. JUVENILE CRIME ,; "And Cry, Po' Boy" was written by Nancy-Lou Gellerman, a student at the University of Washington. It tells of an incident in the lives of six Seattle high school boys, five of whom were arrested for stealing a car. The other boy is a good friend of three of the culprits. One of the boys is sure the police and judge won't do anything to them. As it turns out, he is right. As the story ends, the cocksure boy walks from the courtroom and tells his friend, Tim, what happened. Then he walks away. Tim sits plucking tits guitar and silently begins to cry. Miss Gellerman has evidently put a good deal of thought behind her story, perhaps patterning it upon some of the juvenile misdemeanors that are happening in the larger cities. "And Cry, Po' Boy" should be read over to get a better understanding of why Tim cried at the release of his friends, who really bad done wrong. A rather insignificant story was UI Remember, I Remember" by Bette Lee Pertofsky, from Clark college, Vancouver. It leads up to what should be a good climax and just lets down without saying much. It seems that more should have been said about the pageant at the church. The description x gt;f the girl and her father going to church, and at the church is very good, but the ending gives a rather unfinished or incomplete feeling. SOUTH PACIFIC TALE f "A Funeral for Keller" is the work of Curtis Holum, from Pacific Lutheran College in Tacoma. Evidently Holum has served in the armed forces and was stationed on an island in the South Pacific, where, from all observations, the story takes' place. The tale is ot three tent mates, and the worries of one, Keller, about how he will be buried when he is killed. The story holds your interest all the way through; you keep wondering how Keller will be buried 'til finally it happens. The ending has satisfaction although it is not a happy one. Stuart Delaney, of Weriatchee Junior College, wrote the odd story, "Pedro's Gift." It is the thoughts of, the paisano, Pedro, and of the .gift he .gives to El General, who is going to defend the royal crown. It W styled something like O. Henry's Ishort stories with a surprise ending The gift is a time bomb which blows up in the General's face, thus giving Pedro and his paisano friends their freedom, for a time at least. It is a colorful story, with good choice of words and description. A Washington State College student, Joyce Harrison, has written "New Year's Eve." It is written in somewhat the manner of. popular inagazine short stories, with a'lot of conversation. Although many may without much plot. It consists of a sort of quarrel between a GI college student and his dime store clerk wife on New Year's Eve. As the way of such stories, it turns out okay with the man forgiving his wife. TEENAGE EPISODE Donald P. Smith's "Double Edge" is a well written story. Smith, a student at the University of Washington, has given his story something more than most of the stories in the Profile have. It is an episode in the life a teenager, Ed, who, to impress his tough friend, goes to the house of a girl whose reputation isn't so good. Being only 15, he's scared and doesn't quite know what's going on. Sort of bluffing his way out when an older boy comes by, he decides to bluff even more to his friend the next day. Ed tells of "his conquest and rebuttal of her." To show he's through with all girls, Ed goes to another girl who likes him, calls her beautiful, then says "Not you, pie face." At the moment ne is satisfied^ but then he begins to feel foolish about it. Smith has depicted an incident that could happen to any teenager and shows how cruel kids can be. The story is quite well composed and is interesting to read. NO PLOT TO LIFE No Plot, No Plot at All" by Dar-rell Holt, Washington State College, has an odd quality about it. It is the tale of Fizz, a Negro, who plays the piano in a "Joe-sent-me" below the sidewalk joint. He plays and drinks because to him that's all there is to life. He complains of having no breaks and continually sings a blues song of "life has no plot at all." Finally he gets a break. A man wants him to sign with a name band. The next night Fizz dies, saying "no plot, no plot at all." He has ,accepted life as it is, and a change is something that wasn't there. That would have given a plot to life, and his just didn't have any. "The Lost Leader," was written by John Graham, a student here at Western. A man and his reminis^ cence of post-war Greece is the basis of the story. It is written as a flashback, a style often used by short story writers. Basically it is a well told tale, but too many de-' tails have been left out. A more complete ending is also desired. As most of you have read it in the "Writer," I won't go into details of what the story is about. "U.S.A. Revisited," by John A. Ramos, of Gonzaga U., Spokane," is a short piece on some one out at sea thinking about the U.S.A., over a few past years. There's not much action to the story, but after reading it once, you read it again and start thinking. At first thought there doesn't seem to be much point to it. The descriptive passages are good, and the words are well-chosen. GOOD WAR STORY Jack Bailey, also of Gonzaga, wrote the war story "Coral Sea." Centered around two men, one a read iti it seems quite pointless, j pilot, the other a mechanic, it tells Washington COLLEGIAN April 22, 1949 WWCollegian, Belli ngham, Washington Page 3 Deadline for Photo Contest Entries Is Set for April 30 April 30 is the deadline for entries in the International Collegiate Photography Contest sponsored by Kappa Alpha Mu, national honorary fraternity in photo journalism.

I would like to commend Mr. Bailey for his well-written tale of a ship under fire during the recent World War. The story, which takes place in the Coral Sea,'holds your interest all through its 5,000 words. There is good description, and a lot of action. It is my opinion that this is the best story in the Washington Profile.

Will , Compete Here Tomorrow By JOHN SIGURDSON UBC and CPS will invade the Western oval in what promises to be one of the best meets of the year. Unfortunately the times of UBC are not available, but one thing is known: they always have been strong in track, and there is no reason to assume that they won't continue to be. With CPS it's a different story. From the times turned in in their meet with PLC last Friday it is obvious that the Western thinclads are going to have to pick up quite a bit in order to keep from being blanked. Light seems to be the one to watch on the invading CPS squad in view of his performance last week.*; He snowed the century in 10 flat (not bad for early in the season) and the 220 in 22 flat. According to this the Viks are going to have to chop thick and fast in those two events in order even to place. The Western times against SPC were 10:9 for the 100, and 24:1 in the 220 event. Besides this CPS took the discus with a toss of 120 feet 4%' inches. If big Jeff Russell can repeat his throw of 128 feet 7% inches, then it is my idea at least that we will have a second place cinched and maybe a first. CPS didn't place in the broad jump, but they did take a first in the pole vault with a high of 11 feet 4 inches. To date neither Gayda nor Clayton has bettered 11 feet 2 inches, but it is my prediction that they will add at least another inch and go on to pick up at least 2 points for the Blue and White. As far as the javelin is concerned, I think that it is in capable hands with Russell. Although the odds are against another 191 foot toss, the fact that all of Jeff's throws were over the 175 foot mark (most of them over 180) I think would point to a sure five points. The high jump was taken by CPS (this is still from the meet against PLC) with a spring of 6 feet 3 inches. Against Western's 5 foot 6 inch jump against SPC—need I say more? The shot put should go for around a 42 or 43 foot chuck. This means that Kloes will have to pick up another foot. The 440 was dropped by Western to SPC at 53:8. CPS took first against PLC with a time of 53:1. My opinion is that whether he takes it or not Mastors will be in there to place for the Viks. In the 880 Fabulich took first in 2:06, he also was the one who copped first for CPS in the 400. It is very possible that UBC will be the one to watch in this event. As far as the mile and two-mile are concerned, the distance is usually UBC's meat. But, none the less, don't underrate Bill Shannon and Ray Fjellman who are pretty good candidates for a place. In the high hurdles Westlin added five points to CPS's total against PLC with a time of 16:5. That's a little less than two seconds under Jensen's time against SPC. It should be taken into consideration that Dick Lewis, CPS star hurdler, hit the third high and was forced to ^drop out. The low hurdles also went to CPS with the time of 25:9. That's a little better than three seconds under Western's time against SPC. In the mile relay the CPS squad 'was disqualified. The 3:41.2 time clocked by the Viks, however, will not be good for a place. All in all this will be a good meet, and win or lose you can count on the Blue and White to be in there fighting all the way. So let's see all you students out at the oval to- ; morrow, (rooting for your track squad/ Thinclads in Big Win Over SPC Last Friday, April 15, the Western thinclads copped a lopsided win from a sorely undermanned squad from Seattle Pacific college, 112XA to 17Yi. However, this should be taken with the proverbial grain" of salt, and not as an "indication of any future results. The times were far from impressive, but could be begged off on the grounds that the competition was not too pressing. Big Jeff Russell turned in a performance that puffed the chest of every Western rooter, when he chucked the pointed stick 191 feet 2% inches to break the standing WINCO record of 186 feet 5 inches. Jeff didn't stop with the win in the javelin but went on to capture a first in the discus as well. Harold Kloes, a Sedro-Woolley boy, led the Viks in individual scoring by copping three firsts. He was followed by Shannon, Jensen, and Russell each with two wins. Tomorrow the Blue and White will pit their strength against College of Puget Sound and University of British-Columbia in a triangle meet at the Western oval. ST.

Besides taking a first in the jave lin against Seattle Pacific College (and setting a new conference record at the same time) he also took top honors in the discus.

As its name implies, it deals with rules taken from the rule book so that everyone can learn a few of the more important rules governing baseball (hard ball to some of you) and softball. I sincerely hope you learn some that you don't already know. First we will discuss some of- the rules governing pitching. Baseball—Rule 27, section 1: Preliminary to pitching, the pitcher shall take his position facing the batsman with his pivot foot always on or in front of and in contact with the pitchers plate. In the act of delivering the ball to the bats, the pitcher's other foot is free, except that he cannot step to either side of the pitcher's plate. lie shall not raise either foot until in the act of delivering the ball at the batsman, or in throwing to a base. With a runner on first or second base, the pitcher must face the batsman with both hands holding the ball in front, he must return to a natural pitcher's position and stop before starting his delivery of the ball to the batsman. Note: After pitcher takes legal position for delivery of ball to batsman, he may take one step backward and one step for-, ward, but not to either side. : 3S Softball—Rule 9, section 1: Pre?) liminary to the pitching, the pitcher shall come to a full stop, facing thej batsman, (with both shoulders in" line with first and third base, with ball held in both hands in front ok-the body, and with both feet squarely on the ground and in contact with the pitcher's plate, for not less than one second before taking one hand off the ball at the start of. the., windup or backswing).

'''-''- Coach Heinrick's CPS squad has played three games: two with Pacific Lutheran, which they won; and one with Seattle Pacific which they lost 7-8. The Viks downed Seattle Pacific three times out of four, took two games from St. Martins, and lost two to Seattle University. That gives CPS two out of three while WWC takes five out of eight, which indicates anything could, and is likely tor'happen in tonight's game. f "The main part of our ball club is the pitching and hitting," stated Joe Martin, WWC's baseball mentor. "Most of our games will be won through the efforts of our pitchers and our heavy hitters, at least for a while until our fielding has improved." If certain of WWC's foremost swatters keep hitting £he ball as they have in the past, CPS will have its hands full. Earl Senn, first baseman, is heading the list with top average of .545. Others near the top are Gene Vike, .500; Hal Partlow, .455; Simpson, .429; and Jerry Kar-nofski, .313. On the crucial pitcher's mound Martin will start Dick Patterson with Russ Nelson and Tom Taylor standing by. The schedule calls for a double-header of seven innings each. The gates will open at 5:45 p. m. and game time is 7 p. m. rr -\ SCHEDULE CHANGED Golf and tennis clubs, which were originally scheduled for Wednesday, May 4, have been changed and will now take place a day earlier, Tuesday, May 3.

Playing during intermittent showers, the two teams went a full ten innings before Western finally wound'up the game 3-1. The Western nine took the second game easily 9-0. Going into ten innings for the first game, the Vikings had t he Rangers beat until the last of the seventh but the Ranger team brought in a run, with two away, to tie up the ball game 1-1. In the tenth inning the Viks managed to bring in two tallies while holding St. Martin's. In the second game, which due to the prevailing darkness and prearranged agreement went only five innings, the Viks cut loose in the third to collect ten hits in the remaining innings. Big Steve Kuljis was the outstanding player of the day * f o r either team.

Upon investigation a little red headed girl was discovered as the source of disturbance. In her arms was a small grey rabbit which had bitten her accidentally. The worried rescuers suggested throwing away the "wicked villain" but the gallant titian defended the criminal with—"but I love him." Well, if you wane a trip to Ellensburg sign up soon for tennis or any other sports.

Line and fabric, the feature keynotes of the "new look" this season have eliminated the cute frills and flounces of the preceeding summer. Dresses ara even more feminine* • — ~~ with their soft natural shoulderlines. While hemlines vary in length, the necklines are lower; and under the influence of the Empire style, emphasis is being placed on a tiny high waistline. Softly shirred bodices will share the limelight with large pockets which tend to be more decorative than functional; and the sunback dress returns, even more popular when it makes its appearance with a stole or bolero jacket. Colors run riot, from the palest of pastels to the newsmaking darker shades. Incidentally, darker cottons in the smokey shades, ash grey and smouldering brown, do wonders for a newly acquired tan. Then add a rope of pale pink or pale blue pearls for contrast. Gold accessories with brightly colored shoes also show the darker shades off to advantage. Chambrays still head the list of favorites, but for something new try the iridescent chambray. Piques and butcher linens run close behind in popularity. Cottons are being dressed up with metallic trim usually in the form of top stitching. In sportswear, denims and corduroy are still holding their own, but iridescent denim, like chambray, is shown more and more.

M. WORRIED How often must a person suffer in a lifetime? Is life one disappointment after another? If only I had known—. The old wooden stair case groaned in sympathy as I started up the first flight of stairs. My legs felt as though they were filled witH lead and every step seemed to bring me that much closer to doom. Such a humiliating doom —why must it be now? I reached the top step. Looking down behind me I could see the wide door leading out to freedom. The temptation to turn back swept over me. My hands had that kind of cold feeling a person gets after a good scare. I could feel them creak as I clenched my fists and turned again toward the second and last flight of stairs. Ten steps—steady—pull your self together now. I straightened, took a deep breath and started up. At the top of the stairway was a large, double door. Thank heavens —they're closed. Cautiously I sneaked over, put one finger in the crack between the doors and opened them just wide enough to see in. In the distance I could see several other people. Their strained, taut, expressions told me they too were doomed. A cold shiver ran through me—this was it—certain destruction. Everything I had worked for, sacrificed for destroyed. "Ladies and gentlemen," he said. "I have a surprise for you. The mid-term examination which was scheduled for today has been postponed until next Monday." Through the sighs of relief and the din of shouts I could hear him say, "Class dismissed." What a beautiful world we live in! Saved.

The beautiful spring weather seems to have brought with it that unseen fiend of misery "the unfilterable virus," responsible for the common cold. Three-fourths of the school appears to have fallen prey to the little virus, and there have been many hard words flying in his general direction. Students scurry along the hall dodging sneezes and coughs, weapons of the virus. New Easter outfits are shown to excellent disadvantage when topped large red noses and watery eyes; bull and big strong men find it difficult to appear Tarzanish amid sneezes. Romantic, couples are now observed gazing bleary-eyed at one another «nd exchanging sweet nothings in croaking tones between sniffles. This character is the foe of all, not even excepting our esteemed profs from his purge. However; by afflicting himself upon them, he enables them to do double duty by spreading not only knowledge to their defenseless victims but also the plague. As always, some scoundrels aire making great sums of money from the widespread misery. These are the Kleenex and cough drop manufacturers. What a low way to gain profits. A variety of delicious brands of cough drops are seen. Some prefer the mildly medicated type, while some strong-willed fire-eaters use the violent red-hot kind that make your eyes bulge and your tongue hang out. Ah, what a fortune is in store for the mad genius who discovers a prevention for this dread disease. Who knows, perhaps some enterprising student from Western will make this glorious discovery, and by so doing will rid us forever of the plague and bring honor and glory to our school.

Seldom, if ever, do these sessions accomplish anything. Possibly they may serve as some sort of emotional outlet, but they have the defect that there is plenty of hot air and little action. A genuine bull session, whatever it is called, should be encouraged. Par too often they degenerate into merely a dirty joke session, but this is not the true and valuable bull session. Clear thinking can be stimulated and much knowledge gained by a lively informal discussion with our friends and associates, and, incidentally, faculty members are an asset in these things.

THE EXCITEMENT ABOUT WRITE-INS: A great deal of excitementwas generated during the weekend by a spontaneous write-in campaign. This campaign was consideredlegal according to the interpretation of the Homecoming Committee, and no attempt was made todisqualify the candidate. The campaign apparently resulted from a misunderstanding of the constitutionalinterpretations of the election practices for selecting the Homecoming Court. 'About two weeks ago, the Queen's Affairs Committee had decided to recommend that Homecoming elections be handled by thestanding committee of the BOC. The common agreement of both parties seems to be that electionprocedures should be clarified and changed. A special committee has been appointed by the ASBPresident to look into the matter and make a recommendation to the BOC for their approval. Ken Moffett,ASB President Queen Sigrid XIX Begins 1956 Homecoming Reign BY BILLIE BRESNAHANHomecoming Correspondent In traditional coronation ceremonies this morning Miss Carolyn Brewerbecame Queen Sigrid XIX.

(Allen Hart Photo) Treaty Broken â€”MorrisonIf all the countries in the world would disarm, no one would have the power to make war," said GreatBritain's ex-Deputy Prime Minister, The Right Honorable Herbert Morrison. Morrison, speaking onTuesday's Artist and Lecturers Series, thought that all the power a country needed in a good peacetreaty was enough power to stop aggression and defend itself against attack. Morrison's lecture was onthe "World's Battle For Peace." "When shooting stops it does not mean the world is at peace,"Morrison told his audience. "The Suez crisis is not new. There has been a state of war for seven years in that area," he added. Morrison; thinks that p e o p le should not underestimate the Suez outbreak,because other countries will think, What good are treaties if they are always broken? The greatstatesman told the crowd he didn't believe that men liked to live under a dictatorship. Or at least if theydid he wondered why so many of them were in revolt. "They want to be free as much as we want to keep our countries free," he concluded. Vocollegians To Sing Today The Vocollegians, College vocal group,will make its first appearance of the year this afternoon at 2:30 p.m. The group will sing for the UnitedChurch Women at a quarterly meeting of the women.

"This is veryimportant to the success of Homecomingâ€”a success that can be acquired only if everyone joins in and has a wonderful time. Please do.

Each and every one has done a lot of work tomake our Homecoming one of the best ever," stated Don. When asked how things were progressing,the enthusiastic reply was, "Great! We have very capable co-chairmen and lots of enthusiasm from thestudents. The skit program promises to be the best yet. We hear increasingly good reports about theErnie Fields Band and we know he will play just the kind of music that Western students want." Don,Sharon and their committee had hoped last spring that they could work in a sea theme for this fall'sHomecoming celebration. Finally Dick Kure turned in the name "PantaSea" to Phil Bower, whopresented it at a Homecoming Committee meeting. The name was perfect. Sharon, who hailsfrom Everett, has been active in Valkyrie, drama, and forensics. Last year she was the ASB FinanceSecretary.

Eastern knocked off PLC twoweeks ago 27-7 but was tied by Central last week to upset their title plans. Game time will be 2:00 p. m. In the series between Western and Eastern dating back to 1923, the Savages hold a 21-8 edge over the Viks. Western humbled Eastern 59-0 in 1951 for the most lop-sided game for the Vikings while Easterntook the 1925 contest 41-3. Eastern has had no more than 13 points scored on them in a single gameand in their last three contests only one touchdown was given up to each opponent. Coach JohnKulbitski of the Viks lauded the team on their performances lately, especially crediting the frosh. "I am proud of the progress of the team and I'm sure they will do an outstanding job tomorrow," commentedKulbitski. PLC TAKES CLOSE ONE Western's scrappy Vikings lost to the Pacific Luthern Gladiatorsand bad breaks last Saturday night in Tacoma, 31-20. The bad breaks started quick as early in the firstquarter the Lutes blocked a punt which rolled into the Viking end-zone. Bruce Randall, Vik quarterback,fell on the ball preventing a possible PLC touchdown and the Lutes led 2-0. A 19-yard run put theGladiators ahead 9-0 a little later. Western closed the gap to 9-7 on a two-yard plunge by Sam Martin, halfback, and Bill Karwacki made the PAT. Late in the fourth quarter, trail ing 24-20, Western puntedon their own 6-yard line. The ball went 35 yards but Tommy Gilmer returned it to the Vik 9-yard line,where the Gladiators scored their final six points. Although Western never took the lead, Randallmatched Gilmer's passing attack throughout the game. Randall threw two touchdown passes, one a 45-yarder, to Ralph Hilt. A highlight of the contest was the Viking goal line stand in the fourth period.With PLC in possession on the Vik 6-yard line, first down and goal, the Blue and White defensestiffened. They stopped them on the six, then on the one, then on the one-foot line, and pushed themback to the three on fourth down.

H'coming Games, Date to 1924 Homecoming has become a... big affair at Western since itwas first inaugurated in 1924. Results of the 1924 Viking-Cheney Normal game are not known but theteam battled before a fair sized crowd at old Waldo Field in Belling - ham. The Homecoming footballgames were canceled during the 1943-45 years. Last year the Viks were beaten by Pacific LutheranCollege 14-7, but not before they had given the Lutes a battle. Western scored their first TD inconference play early in the game. They stayed on even terms with PLC until injuries hurt both BruceRandall and Skip Hayes. The fast improving, John Kulbit-ski- led, Vikings meet the Eastern WashingtonSavages this year, hoping that they can repeat the score of the last Eastern-Western Homecomingcontest in 1954. That year Western blanked the Savages 27-0. Homecoming, over the years, has beentraditionally known for -upsets. Students, faculty and alums will be at the game in force to see ifWestern can fatten up that Homecoming win record and continue the upset tradition.

The Vikingsof Western have been just short of sensational in their last few games. No great victories, but for a teamthat wasn't even supposed to show, they have been superior. They have come from an early seasonbunch of green players to a present united fighting football team. They have shown their scoring punchwell in the last two games and have been wiping mistake after mistake off their performances. They havebeen fighting hard in every ball game. Defense, not offense, will be the main trouble for Westerntomorrow. Eastern is in the bite of the line for this game. They saw their title chance go down the drainlast week at Central where they were tied 6-6. And tomorrow a second place finish hangs in the balance.The game is a must for them and they know it. But it will not be the green bunch that went against apotent Lewis and Clark attack, or an inexperienced squad that took on a big Whitworth team and lost. Itwill be a fired-up squad that scared the pants off Humboldt; it will be a scoring squad that counted three touchdowns against a supposedly defensive-strong PLC team. This is a tough one but if the Vikings candeliver as good a performance tomorrow as they have the past two weeks, the victory is ours.ELIGIBILITY RULES CHANGING AGAIN A conference meeting this month may see the EvergreenConference tighten its rules even further. It concerns returning GI's. The rule now reads that any returningGI that was called into service is immediately eligible, providing he was passing 12 hours the lastcompleted quarter. The quarter in which he was drafted did not count. But now the conference isthinking about distinguishing between drafted and volunteering. It would go like this: A student not passing 12 hours who is drafted becomes eligible as soon as he gets out, providing he has passed 12 hoursthe quarter before he got drafted. But a student not passing 12 hours who quits and joins the servicewould not be eligible upon returning. We'll have to wait and see the results at the meeting this month.PRESS COULD BE BIG DRAWING FACTOR Not bragging up the Collegian or any other paperespecially, but I think the press has a great deal to do with the making or breaking the athleticsuccesses. Publicity is the number one thing for any athletic event. People have to know exactly who,what, when, where, and why something is happening. And they are interested in who in two ways. Theywant to know the teams involved and they want to know the individuals involved. Our policy here hasbeen to try thisâ€”our success could be argued I guess. My big point is that it is not only the duty of thestudent paper to inform, but it is especially important for the other mediums in the vicinity tocooperateâ€”meaning the newspapers mainly. It is my personal opinion that the local city paper has failed miserably in informing the public on this college's activities. This may be true of other activities but that is not my case for now. I cite as an example a recent sports item that gave thirty-two inches of copy to alosing game while another article gave only four and one-half inches to Western's stout play in anotherstate. Another is that last week Western got only a brief column mention of their PLC game, no story onthe game itself. We have not had the best records in the world, these last couple of seasons, but theteams have played some darn good football. And if we are to build, help must come via the linotype andthe engraving room. Western doesn't want the whole "sportlight" but we sure would appreciate some of it.

Mr. Buren, presently attending Western on a leave of absence, is serving as a Delegate in the National Party of'the Chinese Republic. Elected in 1952 to this post, his term runs until 1958. His role ingovernment is similar to that of a congressman, he revealed. In the United States to learn the Englishlanguage, the 33 year old Buren, commenting on American policy in the cold war, remarked: "Thiscountry's policy of keeping Russia in check is one that gives encouragement to free peoples. If, theUnited States should relax in its efforts to thwart Russian attempts at aggression it would create afeeling of misunderstanding in anti-communistic peoples." Asked whether he believed the stopping orlimiting H-bomb tests would prove detrimental to the USA's o b j e c t i v e of maintaining peace, Mr.Buren remarked: "Whatever action the U n i t ed States takes on this matter, it should never allowRussia the chance of getting ahead in atomic and hydrogen power. If the United States should relax andRussia were to strive ahead it would discourage the free people of the world. The free people, such asmy own countrymen, look to the United States not, only for leadership, but also for inspiration andfor protection." Mr. Buren, born iri Mongolia, and a 1946 graduate of the National Political University ofChunking, has been in the United States one year studying at the University of Washington and atWestern. Asked about the structure of his own government he pointed out that the government ofhis country is, in many ways, like that of the United States. "My country," he stated is made up of theRepublic of China, Mongolia, Tibet, Manchuria, and East Turkestan. I represent Mongolia.

With national elections just a-round the political corner, Mr. Buren wasasked to comment on his impression of American elections and upon his own country's elections."Our elections, in structure, are very similar to yours. We have much publicity, and much spirit andenthusiasm is generated by our people. The people want to vote. However, we have no TV as of yet.We will soon have it, howeverâ€”educational TV. About 90 per cent of our people of legal age vote. Yes,we are very much like the Americansâ€”even to mud slinging and name calling in our campaigning."Remarking further on government and what role students take in recognizing and supporting theirgovernment, Mr. Buren pointed out that Chinese students have no clubs such as the Young Republicansand the Young Democrats. "In my country we have many students who belong to a group called the"Young Salvation for the Nation/' Their primary purpose is to train to be anti-communist. They areencouraged by the government. Political factions play a secondary role in the club's ultimate objective."Mr. Buren, commenting on Western revealed that the individual help he received here "was veryencouraging."

These students were wholeheartedly for Eisenhower and the Republican party, showing a vote of 18-6 for him. Eisenhower and Stevenson ran a tight race for the votes of the students over twenty-one, with Iketallying 11 to Adlai's 9. A Republican for Eisenhower stated his- views, "I have examined his (Ike's) record and I think he's done a good job of getting us into shape. He's made us feel more secure by his attitudetoward the armed services." It appears that the student vote hinges on the.decision of theindependent voter. At least one-third of the students interviewed intended to vote for the man instead of for a party and its principles. An independent, Don Opperman, plans to support Eisenhower, "I like his ideas. I think he's given our country the leadership we needed." Don, however, supports Warren G.Mag-nuson, Democratic candidate for Senator. Magnuson beat Arthur B. Langlie by a substantialmargin, according to student opinion, with 17 for Magnuson and 10 supporting Langlie. An ardentDemocrat expressed himself this way, "Mr. Langlie has filled his campaign with smears and innuen-dosagainst Magnuson to his own detriment." Laura Silven, freshman, stated, "I would vote for Eisenhowerbecause I like Nixon. I think he is really an intelligent man. I don't care who is President. We need the intelligence and new ideas of a man like Richard Nixon." "Stevenson is too immature," according toFrank Forray, who would back Ike. "There is something about him (Adlai) that lacks sincerity-" BobGustavson disagrees. "Stevenson â€” naturally," he stated when asked who he considered the bestcandidate for President. He added, "First, I don't feel that Ike has treated the farmer properly.Secondly, I don't think his health is adequate to go through the time he would be in office." "I likeAdlai because I thought he did a good job as governor of Illinois and I think for that reason that hewould be a good president. Also the Republicans are for big business and the Democrats are for the little man," so spoke Nancy Parker, a Stevenson rooter. A Democrat against big business, Roland Jaye,mused, "General Motors sold more Chevs in the past three years than ever before. So what's good forG. M. must be good for the country."

(Chuck Stutz Photo) Male 'Brains' Triumph Again The question of whois smartest on campus â€” men or women â€” has been settled, at least temporarily, by the men ofMathes House and women of Senior Hall. In a scholarship trophy contest the men of Mathes havetwice triumphed over the women of Senior Hall, last week announcing their win with a grade pointaverage of 2.85 for spring quarter 1956. Two residents of 529 High St. last winter quarter, Bob Dunlapand Art Mafli, decided the only way to shut the women up was to call their bluff. This idea led MathesHouse to purchase a plaque suitably engraved, which was to be awarded in a "perpetual-challengetrophy race" in scholarship between their house and Senior Hall, since both had a corresponding number of residents. The house with the highest grade point will keep the plaque until the other house came upwith a higher GPA. This Ad Worth 10c On Any Costume Jewelry Purchase F.

Of course the race isn't over for 10 more quarters, but themen of Mathes think they have no worries. They've even gone so far as to suggest other houses trythe sameâ€”but for the LOWEST GPA. Men at Western had long admitted that women made up thebest looking part of the student body, but the question of who held top spot on the "scholastic curve"wasn't so easily conceded.

Sharon Andrea-sen and Don Six are doing a'wonderful job and we all thank them for a fine job so far on the biggestHomecoming ever. The FTA deserves a vote of thanks for the last mixer. A big crowd attended and theband was as good as usual. A different place for mixers is still being sought. The off campus mixerseems to be out of the question at present because of the problem of transportation for "stag girls."However, the most recent suggestion is that mixers be held in the mezzanine of the auditorium, thatthe band use the step landing to the balcony, that the lobby be used for the stag line, and that the music be "piped" to the lounge for dancing there also. A brief explanation of the mixup in balloting forHomecoming candidates is now in order. The ballots were changed after a point was brought outthat the first ballot was unfair to members of the Senior Class, who according to the first ballot could"not directly vote for Senior Princess. This was the sole reason for changing the form of the ballot. Thefootball team and the coach are to be commended on their excellent performance at PLC last weekend.The way they looked there should insure us of a good game tomorrow.

The Collegian feels free to discuss any issuesconcerning students, within bounds of law and decency. However, articles that are signed by full names do not necessarily reflect the policy of the College or Collegian and are not to be taken as oureditorial policy. Â£etUh. to Zbitci Dear Editor: We upper classmen thoroughly enjoyed thepresentation of candidates for Homecoming court. As a whole the program was excellent, as well as co-ordinated and gave a charming combination of sophistication and entertainment. The glee clubwas especially effective and added a much needed air of dignity to the program. The college shouldbe very proud of having these girls represent WWCE but, WHY didn't the managers come up to thestandards of these girls? Some of the introductions were extremely sloppy and irrelevant to the matterat hand. We think the audience attended to see candidates and not a bunch of off color comedians (?).There were four good introductions and we happily congratulate these people. We hope they will beused as good examples for future programs. The comparison of the candidates to their managers waslike comparing legitimate theater to burlesque.

Adviser. James Bliss Dear jpditor: The last issue of the Collegian in my opinion left much to be desired. I refer to a column or "sub editorial" on the Ullman A L program. The opinion of the writer on the lecture is shared by many; however it is quite evident that little research of thought wasput into the statements on the A L Series in general. Things are not at a standstill in the A Lcommittee, the types of programs are being varied, and a broadening of the scope and purposes of A L is now being discussed. Ask questions, gentlemen, before you write these thoughtless queries.Turning the page we find a two column news analysis on Krus-chev. Why? We read the same thing inthe Herald or the P.I. Why was space limited on the sports page and the article on the student moviedeleted? Is this world news summary more important in a college paper than campus news? Finally, Ihave a few of my opinions on the main editorial that I would like to express. Concerning your opinions on the "bored" members on the Board, the facts show you're very correct. And to the student body Isuggest a general awakening of some of your representatives. We on the Board sometimes forget andneed to be reminded; however, Mr. Editor, would you sug- Over five hundred Western students aregoing to be eligible to vote next Tuesday. They will be asked, as 60 million other Americans, to choose between a man supported by his party and a man without a party. If predictions are correct (andRepublican newspapers have exhausted every poll that could be polled) Dwight D. Eisenhower, as ofnow, will be re-elected to the presidency; This will not only be tragic for Dwight D. Eisenhower, but for the Republican party, which will not be elected, and for the United States, which will have to struggle througha vacuum of four years without progress. The party Eisenhower has chosen to espouse will not be able to scrape through even on the coat-tails of his immense popularity. Eisenhower will be, and has been, aman without a party. He has taken an all-out stand against the election of the Democratic party, and if aDemocratic Congress is elected \t will not be friendly to him. Add to this the fact that his own party hasdeserted him on proposals he considered vital to his program, and it adds up to the ultimate fact thatEisenhower, if re-elected, may become the most ineffective president of modern times. In order to carryout any program, a president cannot depend solely upon his engaging smile and appeal to crowds. Heneeds a friendly Congress. Only Congress can appropriate the money he needs to carry out programs,pass the bills he recommends, and ratify the treaties and agreements he makes. Eisenhower has notfound this friendliness in his" own party in the past, and in this election has condemned the parry he willprobably have to face in Congress. His opponent, however, belittled by press and president because he is amenable to new ideas, and believes a nation dosn't have-io tolerate stagnation, will have the support ofhis own party at least. It is the support of Stevenson's party, in fact, which will be his only means ofreaching office. For though he is not a war hero, and has not been a household word for the past tenyears, his ideas are the ideas of the party this nation will undoubtedly put in Congress. And that his party will control Congress is admitted even by the Republican press and party leaders. The greatestdifference between Mr. Stevenson and Mr. Eisenhower is that one has a party that is willing to, andwill, back him up when he reaches the White House. This holds true not only in election year, but for allfour years. There are not a host of candidates riding Stevenson's coat-tail, who are eager to jump off assoon as they reach Congress.â€”Ken Robertson Petitions and Recalls At present a petition is circulating on campus to recall all members of the Board of Control and all elected ASB officers (this includespresident, vice-president, etc.). The Collegian has not been shown the petition, but this newspaperdoes not support its idea. Our editorial last week said that there are members of the Board of Control who remain silent at Board meetings, contributing little toward student government. If students believe theirrepresentatives are not representing them they have the legal right to recall them. This petition, however,asks for recall of ALL officers. This is a serious thing. The Collegian believes that student government has made mistakes (we point them out so they will be avoided next time). But they have done nothing todeserve a complete recall. This is cleaning the spot on the wall by burning down the house. gest thatwe go to the students and ask them whether or not the Board should appropriate money to pay bills?Isn't it quite evident to you that certain pressures are placed upon the Board for financial s u p p o rtaround which there is no path? Possibly a few questions or a little inquiry could have enlightened youand saved you the trouble of writing this part of the editorial. Mr. Editor, you refer again to the "A LSeries and what it is." Presuming you feel the way most students do about the Series, I again submitthe fact that something is being done. This is no secret. All you or a member of your staff would haveto do would be to visit one of the open A L Committee meetings. You were especially invited to thelast one and the press was not represented, at the meeting. The press did not attend the A LCommittee meetings last Spring during the selection of-this year's program nor have they yetattended a meeting this year. Is it wise for the press to criticize such a wide interest subject and beuninformed? Why don't you begin to attend these meetings and become enlightened? We on the Boardhave been criticized for "little a c t i o n ," thwarting good ideas, and giving away money. I welcomecriticism, but I prefer that next time it be constructive, intelligent, and well constructed.

By BONN BEAMS COMMUNISM EXPOSEDâ€”The recent upheaval in Hungary againstthe Soviet Union has exposed Communism as one of the worst imperialistic doctrines in modern history.During the United Nations Security Council's debate of the Soviet's use of military force to put down theHungarian move to oust Russian troops from the area, the Kremlin failed to rally a single country tosupport her claims that the West had started all the thouble and that Russian troops were merelyhelping the inept local government restore order. Messages were reported to have poured in fromgovernments all over the globe backing the West's demands. This world-wide reaction pinpointed thefact that the Soviet Union is rapidly losing her superior propaganda edge over the free world. Many socalled neutrals have been greatly disturbed by the Russian's sudden use of heavy military equipmentagainst the insurgents. More recent reports from behind the Iron Curtain infer that the feeling of unresthas spread into domestic affairs. Large, p r e s et quotas are not being met in numerous industries.HUNGARY'S NAGYâ€”Despite the various reforms advocated by Irme Nagy, the new premier, Hungaryseems destined to remain in the sphere of Communism. Nagy's new policies are far more liberal thanthose imposed by the brutal form of Stalinism, but he still is "a man of Moscow." There have been noindications that Nagy will abandon the Kremlin and turn the Hungarian nation toward a realdemocracy. Instead, he has established simply another Tito-ist nation which will draw aid from the Westwith one hand and beg from the Russians with the other. But the difference between Poland andHungary lies in the fact that Nagy must cope with the younger generation.

WITH DAVE AMOS Since the rest of this paper isrevoltingly Democratic, this column may as well be revoltingly Republican. One of the big points in thenational election, is that people like Ike, but are wary of Mr. Nixon.

There was a lively little group down at Tacomalast weekend for the PLC game, they made quite a bit of noise, but there was some complaint voicedabout the yell team and the way the yells were timed. Before you know it the Democrats will be blamingthe Republicans for the fighting between Isreal and Egypt. What will they do next?? As a result of theelection of the Homecoming Queen and Senior princess being fouled up, moves are being made to put the rules of the election down in black and white. Of course we'll all be at the rally and bonfire tonight. Theskits are pretty good this year too. Last but not least, WELCOME GRADS . . It seems t'me that thepeople who backed the petition to ask for a recall vote of all BOC members and the ASB President andvice-president mace a hasty and not-too-well thought out move. The move was so strong that it raiseda smell that reminded me somewhat of the south end of a skunk going north. I hope that those peoplewho backed the petition were satisfied by the action the BOC took last Wednesday con-cerning theircomplaint. the speaker at this week's meeting of Critics Club. The topic was one concerning FrenchCanada: its customs, traditions and culture. A new twist was introduced by substituting an informaldiscussion for the traditional reading. After the main topic was thoroughly discussed the membersdiscussed recent events in student government.

The title was entirely satisfactory and I believe that thinking about the past at WWCE is fun. Now that old age is creeping up on me and I have been gone from the college for some considerable time, I believe that I am eligible for that category that the younger students refer to as "old fossils who have come back with a serious look and their nose buried in a book all day." Anyway, still like to think of the old days here as the best ones. * * * Things have changed, there is no doubt. Even in Edens hall kitchen when a pile of trays goes clattering to' the floor, one expects to find Miss Longley hovering over you like a mother hen angry with a young chick . . . instead a pretty young thing, more politely referred to as Miss Miller, steps up cool as a cucumber and requests that you please try to make less noise . . . JVhile sauntering down the upper halls around Dr. Bond's office, you expect momentarily to have Mr. Kibbe charge out upon you with a friendly handshake . ... but instead you traverse the entire hall without interruption or maybe Miss Erick-son greets you with her pleasant smile as always . . . then you remember that she has been gone for several years but it is as though she had been there always. * * * For veterans who used to attend the college when a book seemed like a big item to buy. it is hard to realize that your money is no good at the 43o-op -and- that Uncle Sam- will take care of all your needs . . . but other items of your summer's stay still reflect the ever upward surging of prices . . . even the Peoples' Theatre, once the butt of students' jibes, now charges twenty-five cents a throw and almost assumes an air of respectability over the days when a thin dime would gain you admission. * * * Then there's Declan Barron who used to sit in on many a Kitchen Krew bullfest when he was a student here . . . once he even loaned me his pants so I could wear them for a part in one of the school drama productions . . . soon we will be calling him "Doctor" and it is hard to know how to greet him in the hall . . . shall it be "Hi% Dec" or should we say, "Hello, Mr. Barron?" So we must realize the college ' and its personnel are always changing but a few things are still the same . . . the chimes on the clock in front of the First National Bank still have that old noslaglic charm as they boom out every quarter of an hour . . . Mr. Hoppe's humorous remark after an Edens hall banquet, "/ see that they are still paying for the old homestead," • and. I will wager that Mr. Arnlzens "yes and no" are still as popular with the students as ever. Student Honored Jean Burnet, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Burnet, has been awarded a 1946-47 scholarship according to an announcement made by Stanford University, where she has just completed her freshman year. The award is an annual presentation honoring the memory of a 1941 Stanford student, John Pressley Phillips, Jr. Jean attended the WWC Campus schools from kindergarten through junior high school and is a graduate of Bellingham high school. She is women's page editor for this quarter's WWCollegian. Vol. XLIV — No. 34 Western Washington College, Bellingham, Washington Friday, July 5, 1946 Ramon G e o r q e Annette Edens Paintings On Exhibit Returns Here *•*"**ln Art Seciion After three years in the navy, 27 months of which were spent on the destroyer U. S. S. Robinson in the Pacific. Ramon George returned to WWC this summer to resume his career as a radio and speech instructor. Mr. George, a communications officer with the first destroyer squadron trained to support amphibious landings, participated in the support of 17 separate beachheads during the war in the Pacific. The ship on which Mr. George was assigned during most of the Pacific campaigns completed the war without suffering any serious damage, but every other ship in his squadron was either sunk or so seriously damaged as to be of no further use. The U. S. S. Robinson hung up an outstanding combat record while in the Pacific. Besides participating in the s u p p o r t of 17 beachheads, the Robinson was also the first American ship to enter Philli-pine waters, first American ship to enter the Jap controlled waters around the Palaus and first (American ship to enter Chinese waters after the war with Japan was over. The Robinson also put three torpedoes into the leading jap battle-wagon in the battle of Surigio Straits. Mr. George looked completely at home in WWC's radio department, and is already busy making plans for future radio and dramatic presentations. Eleanor King Slated For Tuesday Eleanor King, one of the country's leading exponents of modern dance, will present a recital for the Tuesday, July 9, assembly. A recent article in one of the country's leading newspapers described Miss King's dance as that which has the happy combination of producing dancing that is always good theater and yet full of subtleties. "A dance design may be bold and sweeping but the emotion behind it is closely controlled. There are no excesses, so tastefully and skilfully are thought and action united This is perhaps her greatest gift." Paintings by Miss Annette Edens are to be shown in an art exhibition in the art section of WWC beginning at 8:00 p. m., July 10. The paintings in the exhibitio\i afford the people of Bellingham a rare opportunity of seeing an unusual variety of the expressions executed by a single artist. Annette Edens ' w a s born on Guemes Island, Washington, and has lived for many years in Bellingham, although her studies and travels have carried her to many parts of the world. Edens hall is named for her father J. J. Edens, an early trustee. Miss Edens studied painting under Robert Henri, Kenneth Hayes Miller, Arthur Dow and Charles Martin in New York. She attended the New York School of Pine and Applied Arts for two years and received her Master's Degree in Art from Columbia University. TEACHING VARIED She has taught painting and design at the University of Washington, Seattle Teachers College, Columbia University in New York. Ohio University in Athens, Ohio, and the College of Applied Arts, University of Cincinnati in Cincinnati, Ohio. It has only been in recent years that Miss Edens has devoted her time to painting and the paintings Summer Radio Plans Made R a d i o c l a s s e s , under Ramon George, who just returned after three years in the navy, will resume college news broadcasts .in the near future. Regardless of the difficulties presented, a well rounded school broadcasting program has been scheduled for the summer. The broadcasts will begin in one-half to two weeks. Among other things planned, a faculty round table discussion is on the summer schedule and several dramas are being planned. The college radio broadcasts originate in the school and are broadcast over Bellingham's local station. Dr. Caswell Concludes Program With Speech On Curriculum Progress That new courses of study and organized curriculum programs have thus far largely failed to reach down into the average class room and actually change it for the better was the starting point of Dr. Hollis L. Caswell's concluding address last Friday in the auditorium. Dr. Caswell's over-ail theme for the two-day summer conference was "Can the Curriculum of Our Schools be Modernized to Meet the Conditions and Needs of Our Times?" Having previously emphasized that education is a process, not of teaching pupils what they do not know, but of teaching them to behave as they do not behave, b r .Caswell pointed out that a course of, study is a feeble instrument to carry the load we have thrust upon it. The course of study is not an adequate means of effecting such a change and a new course of study seldom means a new atmosphere in the average classroom. NEW APPROACH URGED As guides toward more positive progress, Dr. Caswell mentioned: (1) that educators must focus their attention at all times oh the actual experiences and behavior of the pupils in their classrooms rather than on the materials they use; (2) that teacher growth is the evidence of success in curriculum revision; (3) that the curriculum is actually changed only by changing it (there has been much talk but little specific action); (4) that administrators must nurture variants in the school system in order to obtain creative ideas from those teachers who question, rather than conform to, the existing pattern; (5) that society must give teachers a continuing sense of security in order to free them for whole-hearted participation in curriculum changes. DECENTRALIZATION PROPOSED In conclusion, Dr. Caswell urged that educators place more emphasis on the importance of the individual school in setting the purpose and direction for its efforts. The time (Continued on Page Four) shown in this exhibition have been done since 1940. In the past two decades water color painting has grown from the simple camera-like interpretation of nature, along many diverse directions. Some paintings are utterly abstract, some semi-abstract. Painters have become tremendously interested in textures, in new methods of interpretation of a scene or mood, in putting paint on paper, in a personal deliberate exaggeration or distortion of forms and above all in a rearrangement of nature to form a fine design. FREQUENT EXHIBITS Miss Edens has exhibited in The Cincinnati Art Museum, Cincinnati, Ohio; in Columbus Gallery of Fine Arts, Columbus, Ohio; Butler Art Institute, Youngstown, Ohio; Art Institute, Kansas City, Mo.; Dayton Art Institute, Dayton, Ohio; Art Museum, Denver, Colorado, and Detroit Institute of Arts, Detroit, Michigan. Homes For Single Veterans Coming "Housing units for single student veterans now attending br planning to attend school will be ready in time for the coming fall quarter," Dr. W. W. Haggard, WWC- president, said Tuesday. Each unit of the 22 single or "Zero Units" as they are called will house two students. Instead of having a separate bedroom, the front room, complete with twin beds', will be used as combination» living and sleeping quarters. In addition to the 22 single housing units, two housing units with two bedrooms each will also be set up on the same site. Located directly south of the physical education building these units will feature practically the same fixtures and facilities as those housing units now occupying the Sehome school grounds. According to the architect, the plans will probably be completed and submitted to the FPHA for approval by Monday. Negotiations concerning contracts needed for the laying of sewer pipes have already been accomplished. Mrs. Young Here Mrs. Edna Hill Young, Speech Department, Denver University, will be at WWC July 11 and 12 as guest speaker for the Third Annual Conference on Education for the Exceptional Child. Mrs. Young, originator of the Moto-kinesthetic Method of teaching speech, will speak on the theme, "The Classroom Teacher and Children with Defective Speech." She will also conduct ---------- WWCollegian - 1946 July 5 - Page 2 ---------- Western Washington College of Education, Bellingham, Washington Friday, July5, 1.946 oditolial. A couple of years ago congress and the executive branch of, our government got together and passed a bill that had as its purpose "the education of any ex-serviceman who had certain minimum qualifications and an ordinary amount of ambition.'' This bill is known as the CI Bill of Rights. Single ex-servicemen attending school are sent a check each month for the sum of $65. Some servicemen who were disabled during the War get slightly more money under a similar bill. This generous offer extended by the government were immediately accepted by many thousands of ex-CTs. To many this was a chance of a lifetime. Today congress and the executive branch of our government are failing to cooperate in setting or continuing price control as it should be. As a result prices of food, shelter and clothing, the essentials of life, are liable to rise to a degree where many persons whose wages are stationary will find difficulty in maintaining a proper standard of living. ..Among these people, are the veterans who are attending school on the $65 the government allots them each month. / / prices take an extreme rise, due to the lifting of price control, many veterans are going to find it impossible to continue to take advantage of the opportunity the United States government has given to them. The CI student is not the only person who is going to suffer from the dropping of price control. Thousands of other people in the country are working for wages that are not going to increase as the cost of living increases. The possible loss of an education by many thousands of young American men and women is not the most important thing that will be brought about by the inability of the American congress and executive office to work in harmony. But one important thing is clearly being shown to the American people, and that is the fact that if we, the voting public, do not use extreme care in selecting the proper persons to hold the high government jobs in Washington we are liable to face many situations similar to the one we are facing right now.

Adviser Hikes Add To Life Vet Sehome Housing Project Defies Economic Ailments Within "shouting distance" of WWCE are found many of the wonderlands of this country. Great "mole-hills" like Mt. Rainier, Mt. Baker, Church Mt., Chuckanut Mt., Sumas, Bed and Iron Mts., offer a stiff test to the vigors of man in the form of hiking, skiing, camping, hunting, and fishing. Yuy siree, it takes a good hike to give one the strength and stateliness which marks the giant cedars and pines. "Off we go into the wild green yonder . . . ." Freedom For The World By BOB DICKSON Independence Day 1946, marks not only the 170th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, but it is also America's first peacetime Fourth of July in four years. Four years of the most horrible slaughter and carnage ever to blot the face of this earth; and now—once again— we Americans will celebrate a peacetime "Fourth". Many of us will celebrate merely because it is a holiday; a holiday whose significance we have lost, or forgotten, and for which we little care. However, if we honestly desire to preserve the principles of liberty and equality, as set forth in the Declaration of Independence, we must do more than shoot firecrackers, drive fast, eat hot dogs and drink pop. We must do everything we possibly can to try to bring about a better understanding between ourselves, and between all nations. For it can only be through international understanding and cooperation that we can have the type of world we so desire. Let us resolve, then, to make this Fourth of July not only an Independence Day, but also Interdependence Day. 'nneb ^anctum Jackson: Do men like talkative women or the other kind?

DOWNTOWN HEADQUARTERS For WWC Students Fountain, Food, Drink HARDWIGICSl Where Friends Meet and Eat Say you're worried about your landlord raising the rerj|? Say ya won't have a place to live? And say —are you a married GI? Well then, tell you what I'm agohna do! All kidding aside though, how'd you like to know all about that new little city that sprung up just a short time ago only three blocks from "ye ole college on the hill"? On that one square block there are 21 single and 10 double bedroom units. At the present time six vacancies exist, but they are expected to be filled in a very few days. These houses are only for married veterans attending college at WWC. All the houses and equipment are government property aside from a community washhouse now under construction and three-burner hot plates. SEHOME SCENE Perhaps you've noticed all those housing units while on your way to school some morning and wondered just what they looked like inside, and, in general—what gives. S'pose we walk in one of the housing units and see just what the interior looks like. Entering through the backdoor and stepping on a concrete floor the first thing that catches your eye is the kitchen and furnishings. Complete with double sink, icebox, kitchen range, table and two chairs it looks pretty nice. Advancing still further we notice in the living room a five-shelf bookcase with just loads of room for those required text-books and a couple of dime westerns. Beneath large corner windows a day cot is situated to use for restful relaxation —and sometimes for study. CONVENIENCES APLENTY Across the room from a combination linen and clothes closet a large heater is located—guaranteed to keep occupants warm on the coldest Washington night§. Passing by a complete bathroom, which, by the way, has an individual shower room built within, we proceed into the bedroom and see twin beds—springs, mattresses and all. Next to the spacious clothes closet sits a large chest of drawers. And that completes the inside picture. Like to look around outside? ---------- WWCollegian - 1946 July 5 - Page 3 ---------- Friday, July 5, 1946 Western Washington College of Education, Bellingham, Washington 3 On the Adelines . . . Mount Baker Beckons Hikers; with beecrok and jones H^PPV F i s h e r L e a d s Ascent WWC's catalogue designates this session as the "Summer Quarter". The Union Pacific calendar boldly blares "July" from its prominent position behind the editor's desk, yet something is amiss. Last Saturday will serve as an example of what has become "cover article" on our gripe list. Remember . . . .? It rained. In fact it has rained almost continuously for the past week. Last Saturday's rain drowned the plans but not the hopes of the Recreation Committee. The Church mountain climb was cancelled, naturally enough, but the Mount Baker climb was still scheduled for yesterday. Bashful, little Happy Fisher will guide WWC's student mountaineers up the rugged, glistening, snow-capped summit of Mount Baker. Today as the students who "stayed home" lap up the knowledge in their respective, cozy classrooms, the eager beavers will be hiking around the foothills of Mount Baker. Today's jaunts will be merely conditioners. Tomorrow will see the battle of "brawn against Baker". Last Week the general confusion of beginning the summer quarter together with the Educational conferences toward the end of the week, did not allow the intramural sports program much time to get underway. This past week a sports program Was definitely drawn up but along came the "4th", and the Mount Baker hike, so now things will have to slide until next week. Sam Carver has hopes for some mixed teams in baseball. If you arjz over by. the P. E. building next Week drop in and tell Sam youd like to try your hand (or legs) at galloping around the diamond. These mixed— "mixed" means a mixture of men and women on the same team—sounds interesting. Baseball teams will play each Monday and Thursday at 4 p. m. If you have some spare time why not turn out? It will do you good to gel just a little fresh air and maybe even some of that elusive sunshine. ODDS 'N ENDS . . . For those students who intend to enroll this fall the recently reenforced Winco league will bring more color to the major sports program. Latest addition to the league is Whitworth College. This brings seven colleges together for next year's intercollegiate sports program. The old standbys of the Winco are Central Washington, Eastern Washington, Seattle College, St Martin's, Pacific Lutheran, and, of course, little old WWC. Just thinking about the post-War Winco league naturally enough called to mind the colorful football games of yester-year. Lappy should have a fair start on a pretty sharp eleven. Looking around the halls we see stocky, little Byron "Crabby" Crubb. Cabby is an ex-Vik guard with two years' experience. Les Smith is another veteran. Smith has played for the White and Blue for three seasons. He's a rugged and smart quarterback in any-body's league. In 1942 Les won the Inspirational Award, an honor given in recognition of his sportsmanship, leadership and inspirational contribution to the gridiron eleven of '42. Don Packard, Jerry Connell and Dodge are three more'men with plenty'of football experience. Lappy has a fine nucleus around which to build a potent team. PICNIC AT LAKEWOOD . . . How would you like to ease up on the classroom routine for just one afternoon? If you like to eat, relax, swim and go "a boating", then set aside a few hours beginning at 4 p. m. this coming Wednesday. The exact date is July 10. If you need a ride, be out on the parking lot at the afore mentioned time and date. Bring something to eat though. Coffee will be served by the lake side. The boats are free and so is the water. George Dack has spent a lot of time and energy fixing up the college's picnic grounds on Lake Whatcom. You can rest assured that what George does he does right. Baseball under the lights really came into its own last night, at Yankee Stadium, as 68,617 watched Spurgeon (Spud) Chandler set the league leading Boston Red Sox down with two hits. Playing before the largest crowd ever to attend a night ball game. Chandler Won his 12th victory of the season as the Yankees down the Red Sox 2 to I . Harris went all the way for Boston. Rainy Weather Fouls Plans up with a rainy day which forced the committee to call off the Church mountain hike. It would have been a bedraggled crew that went on the planned hike. The rain poured down steadily for the greater part of the day. The recreation committee is not at all discouraged, however. The committee members are holding out for good weather for the Mt. Baker climb tomorrow.

Baker is the goal of this week's 'mountaineers'. Happy Fisher will lead the party of climbers which left at dawn today from Kulshan Cabin to scale the heights of majestic Mt. Baker. Happy is a veteran guide and mountain climber. He is a member of the Seattle Mountaineers, the Mt. Baker Ski Club, and the Mt. Baker Hiking Club. A graduate of WWC, he teaches at Pairhaven Junior high school. Mr. Fisher says Intramural Progam Needs Adrenalin Sam Carver of the P. E. department is disappointed in the lack of interest in intramural athletics this summer quarter. In answer to a question about swimming, baseball, etc., he made this statement: "We • had hoped, and still do have hopes, that we could have a good intramural program this summer. We have made a tentative schedule which we will use if enough students are interested. On this schedule mixed baseball would be Mondays and Thursdays, 4 p. m. Men's swimming would be Wednesdays and Fridays, 4-5:30 p. m. On Thursday nights there would be mixed recreation, including swimming, badminton, and basketball." - Carver has always been open to any suggestions concerning intramural sports and also has always been cooperative. He wants anyone who is interested in getting a little exercise and having a lot of fun, to get in touch with him in the near future. He also wants the men to know that baskets and towels are available for use at no extra charge. MEET YOUR FRIENDS at the DOG HOUSE Open Week Days and Saturdays 8 a. m. to 10:30 p. m.

Happy has been very generous in offering his services as the guide for the trip. He is now on his vacation and it is certainly no holiday to shepherd a party up the mountain. It is a responsibility that few men would care to assume. CONDITIONING HIKES The h|king party left Bellingham yesterday morning for Kulshan Cabin where it will spend the night Friday, the hikers will spend their time getting in condition for the big climb. Early Saturday morning the group will leave the cabin and climb to the summit of Mt. Baker. After their return to the cabin, the party members will be served a supper especially planned to assuage the hunger of persons who have a good reason for being hungry. This Fourth of July week-end should be a memorable occasion for those who signed up for this trip to the mountains. Opportunities such as this do not come often in one lifetime. It is an experience that cannot be gained out of a book. It is visual education in the form of a pleasant holiday.

The weather was wonderful, and so was the salmon prepared by Dr. Bond, in his own special style. Sharing the menu with the salmon were scalloped potatoes, s a l a d, rolls, pickles, coffee, milk, ice cream, and more salmon. Later in the evening a bonfire was built on the beach, and the group gathered around it for a songfest, led by Chet Ullin, Dr. D'Andrea, Dr. Hawk, and Ray Bright. Dr. Bond gave a farewell speech and the group honored him with several songs. Students Picnic At Lakewood Energetic and ambitious students of WWC will hike from the end of the city bus line to the college property at Lake Whatcom, Wednesday, July 10, 4:00 p. m. They will carry picnic lunches which will be eaten after their arrival at the lake. Coffee will be served. Those people unwilling or unable to make the hike will make the trip by automobile. Lakewood, which is the name given to the property, is a popular picnic grounds in the summer. Its many facilities make it an ideal place to spend a warm summer day. WATER BECKONS Here is what the Recreation Yod-eler, the campus recreation publication has to say about the picnic: "We have made special arrangements with Jo-Jo the weather bird who has guaranteed conditions which will be perfect for swimming, sun-bathing and picniking.-- The-boats are all in good shape, so we should be able to have some crew races second only to the Poughkeep-sie regatta.

Folsom-Nelson Formes WWC Students Married Recently HOSPICE INN As the second week of the summer is completed, we find the men of Hospice in a different mood than they were in during the first week. The first few weeks of school found some of the fellows, who came back for those last few credits, saying, *Tm one fellow you won't see doing a lot of work this summer." "I know this education field; I'm taking it easy." Now some of the boys are a lot quieter and don't seem to be attending some of those bull sessions* in the living room. Instead it may be noticed in the evenings that the lights are burning late and the house doesn't ring with the echo of carefree laughter. Comes the week-end and it seems as if practically all of these married teachers are in their cars before the last bell rings and driving like mad towards home and the little wife. If Skidmore were here, his only comment would be, "Lucky guys." Are there any confirmed mountain climbers in the crowd? If there are, contact Loren Bezzo; he is having a hard time trying to get people to accompany him on week-end excursions. All in all, the house of Hospice is much the same this quarter as it was last quarter. "Dry Gulch Gary" and the rest of the crowd in the basement are sleeping all the time. The men on the second floor try to sleep all the time, and the men on the top floor spend all their time trying to keep the men on the second floor awake . . . With this repetition we will sign off for the evening. SENIOR HALL Who? Twenty residents, including Mrs. Ethel Anderson, house mother. What? Senior Hall, new domitory for women. Where? 1201 Garden street. Why? Because Miss Powers, Mrs. Anderson, Miss Tremain, and assorted carpenters, painters, electricians, plumbers, so on, have worked for months to prepare the building for occupancy. When? Summer term, 1946. How? Various delays and shortages cause some inconvenience, but as a Chinese philosopher says, "This is only temporary." The new fire escape ladder, emphatically perpendicular, received its initiation Sunday from two intrepid climbers. Who ever heard of starting at the top of the ladder, anyway? Officers elected at the first house meeting were: Hester Richards, president; Margaret Clark, vice-president; Alice Piers, secretary-treasurer. Overheard in the halls: "Did you hear the bomb drop?" . . . "And I came out here to get sunshine!" , . . "Those tests! I haven't used a semicolon twice in my whole life" . . . "We knock five balls out on the fairway, and then we walk out and bring them back. The farther you knock them . . . " . Angela Maher balances her check book with her eyes shut so she won't see how it comes out. DANIELS HALL Hal Partlow last week went to work at Marine Ways . . . must have a car says Hal. and working seems to be the only out . . . come autumn and Hal will be back at WWC classes. Bob Tisdale finally chased down a car . . . and its a dandy "42" Stude-baker . . . Now when the autumn rains come Bob will be all set for those Mount Baker trips. Joe Angelo purchased a home up on the other side of Deming and has left for San Francisco to bring back his family. Irv Liuten is joining the parade of "Marital Bliss", come Friday, July 5. He will be married in Puyallup and two weeks later will be at home in the Axtell Apts. Mr. and Mrs. Gene Sivertson and Alfred "Kewp" Clement called Sunday at the hall. Several past inmates of the hall are now located in the housing project on Sehome . . . namely, Alick Mitchell, Paul Foster, Dave Lew, Del Peterson and the Wally Wilsons. Loris Brubaker departed from our place last Sunday to take up abode with Jack Hayward in his cozy nest. Good luck, Corky. Jerry Robinson spent a week-end in Seattle and has been catching up on his sleep since . . . Why? Red Van Aver journeyed to Conway last week-end . . . What's the attraction there, Red? E. O. Neuman had his two sisters and brothers-in-law as guests Saturday. The boys would like Ernie to bring his sister more often. See you next week, we hope. HUMOR A phrase that we just overheard that happened to strike the funny bone is: "A woman who swears that she's never been kissed has a right to swear." All snickers will be appreciated. o Sentry: Halt, who goes there? .Voice: An American. Sentry: Advance and • recite one line of the Stars Spangled Banner. Voice: Don't know a word of it.

Roger Nelson was best man for his brother, and Miss Beth Jean-nine Polsom was her sister's only attendant. A reception following the ceremony was held at the Harry Heal home on Sunset Drive. Mrs. Nelson, who was prominent in radio and drama at the college, is a graduate of Washington State college, and for the past year has been assistant supervisor of audiovisual department of the Spokane schools, writing and producing plays for station KHQ. Nelson, president of his freshman class, was a navy flier with 18 months overseas duty to his credit, and has returned to WWC for the summer quarter. Why Not Share Rides Home? It has been suggested that the Collegian could help the week-end student travel situation out if this paper would publish in each issue, that is every Friday, a list of persons making trips to the various parts of the state from Bellingham. In other words people driving their own cars home every week-end who desire to carry passengers should Betrothed Mr. and Mrs. Basil V.

The summer conference ended with the noon luncheon at Edens hall, when Mrs. Marcella Lawler, of the State Department of Public instruction, summarized the discus-notify the Collegian, and the Collegian will publish the name of the person, the place being traveled to, and the time leaving. Then other persons without cars who wanted to make the trip can contact the drivers and make the share-the-gas and what other arrangements that are necessary. The idea seems sound, being as this writer is always looking for a ride somewhere himself, so the Collegian will immediately post a notice on the bulletin board in the Collegian office and all drivers who care to carry passengers on their week-end auto trips can sign their names, destination and the time of departure. If the response is sufficient, the Collegian will start carrying this list with the next issue. THEATRES sions of the conference. Dr. Caswell made the closing remarks, when he stated that the United States is now in the process of assessing the role of education in a democratic society. We can no longer escape the fact that we must make this examination with vision and courage and that we must assume our ultimate responsibility for creating an environment where children may live wholesome lives with benefit both to themselves and to society— Ruth A.

Lecture series programTuesday evening because no seats were available. Various board members reported studentresentment of the fact that a large number of townspeople occupied free seats at the magic show whilesome students were forced to stand or were turned away. They pointed out that the programs are financed by student registration fees but that the public is admitted free of charge. * The complaining studentssay W derui W lt;uUUi lt;fto*i COLLEGIAN Vol. XLVII - No. 40 Western Washington College,Bellingham, Washington July 25, 1952 Gl Bill for Korean Vets Signed "we're paying for their seats,"reported Milt Clothier. "It's like paying a lab fee and then getting locked out of the lab,"commented outgoing President Dick Pedersen. Also noted* was the contrast between attendanceat this program of entertainment and attendance at recent programs of a more cultural content. Theboard unanimously voted to address a letter of protest to the members of the College Artist and Lecturecommittee. No new suggestions concerning possible projects for the use of coop bookstore surplusprofits were reported. It had been hoped that recent publicity given the question would result insuggestions from the student body. Discussion was again postponed. The board voted to forfeit its half-interest in a 1937 vintage typewriter used by Athletic Director Charles Lappenbusch. Complete title tothe machine was given Lappenbusch in reward for services rendered. In other business, a deviation insports awards was allowed in the case of tennis letterman Ray On-dracek, investigation of the status ofthe faciiites fund was recommended, and clarification of the new Scholarship society standards wassought.

The re- New Civil Defense Program Initiated During the past year at Western the Safety Council made a study of the civil defense program. Ralph Thompson, head of thecouncil, decided with other members to set a special civil defense program. _ Some of the tentativeplans are: training of. radiological and biological monitoring teams; in addition fire, police and wardenunits for the protection of personal buildings and grounds. Fall quarter, the administration will appoint afaculty member as the civil defense director for the college. Trustees have approved the civil defense plan and next year's program awaits on the appointment of a director. Conservation Class StudiesNorthwest Dr. Howard J. Critchfield's class n Conservation of Natural Resources made a field trip to theSoil Conservation Demonstration farm near Lynden this term. They saw soil jonservation practicesbeing developed there. The conservation course is new on the campus this term. The class,consisting of *20 students, has been saying that she was completely studying what the natural resources overwhelmed by it. She stated that she usually had to work under very different conditions and that itwould be a real pleasure to use such a beautiful building for the workshop. The workshop will devote thefirst week to making pictures by using a great variety of media. The emphasis will be on using materialssuch as scraps of wood, cloth, and string to stimulate children's interest and creative abilities. Thesecond week will be devoted to a study of projects that might be carried on in the, smallest school |The use of everyday materials will be particularly stressed. Dr. Welling has been the superintendent of art in the Detroit schools and director of art education at Wayne University. She has conductedworkshops earlier this year at the University of Pennsylvania and the Ohio State university. are, whereJJhey are and what to do to care for them. The course has been planned to give teachers pointers onconservation education. During the second session t he group will study forest, grass lands, wild life and fisheries. Field trips will be made to the forest and fish hatchery. Dr. Critchfield states that some of thestudents, who are teachers from other states, have made excellent contributions toward the study of thenatural resources in different sections of the country. Dr. Critchfield directed the conservationeducation program in New Zealand from 1948-50. He says the conservation problems of New Zealandare similar to those of Washington. hearsal time for the orchestra *is from 1 to 2:30 p. m.

Variety Concert Will Feature AileenCarlyleJ Aileen Carlyle, prima donna comedienne, will appear in a concert of great variety in thecollege auditorium Tuesday, July 29, at 8 p. m. Her program runs the gamut of entertainment â€” fromserious opera to satirical sketches and monologues. Miss Carlyle's talents are hot confined to singing alone, but feature several entirely different and opposite types and styles of work: operatic, classical,comedy specialty songs, dialects, and locetures. She has appeared on the stage, in motion pictures, on radio, television, and night clubs. Some of her latest movies have been "Father of the Bride," and "Loveis Better Than Ever." She has made recordings for RCA Victor, appearing as featured vocalist withSpike Jones and His City Slickers.' Miss Carlyle was the featured prima donna for over a year at theLos, Angeles Turnabout theatre. In this role she ribbed grand opera and gained coast-to-coast acclaim for her original intepretation of the number "Brunehilda Rides Again." She was featured along with ElsaLanchester in the revue. Solons Propose $3,OOOas Minimum Pay An increase in the legal minimum salary for teachers to $3,000 a year will be recommended to the 1953 state legislature by the bi-partisan interim legislative council. The present minimum salary is $2,400, according to a state lawenacted in 1947. Among other proposed changes in state school laws to be presented by the council is a new formula for determining allocations of state aid money to schools. It is designed to simplify thepresent system which involves more than 20 steps to determine how much state money a schooldistrict shall receive. Also endorsed by the council upon recommendation of an education subcommittee headed by Rep. Robert Ford, was a proposed constitutional amendment which would permitschool districts to increase their debt limit from five to ten percent of their assessed valuation. In aseparate action the council recommended that the next legislature enact a law that would requireschool districts without high schools to help pay for capital construction of the high school where theysend their children. MALE QUARTET SINGS A special music program will be presented today at 12:30p. m. in the college auditorium by the Westmont college male quartet of Santa Barbara, California.Next Thursday's noon organ recital will be given by Lowe Bartruff at 12:30 p. m. Haggard PredictsVets Will Choose Low Cost Schools "Korean war veterans will probably be choosing colleges havingsmaller fees," stated Dr. W. W. Haggard this week when asked how he thought the new GI bill forKorean veterans would affect the college. According to a new bill signed by President Truman last weekall payments will now be made directly to the veteran instead of to the school. Schools having smallertui* tion fees will attract the veterans because the students will be granted a lump sum and will wish to make it go as far as possible, Dr. Haggard predicted. A full time student having no dependents willreceive $110 a month. The veteran with one dependent will receive $135. If he has more than onedependent he will be paid $160. The veteran if discharged after June 27, 1950, must have'served 90 days or more to be eligible. He is entitled to 1% days of education for each tfay of military service up to amaximum of 36 months. The veteran who qualified for training under the World War H measure andalso served after the start of the Korean war may be entitled to a maximum of 48 months of training. "Aveteran choosing on-the-job training will receive $70 a month if he has no dependents, $85 if he" has one dependent and $105 if he has more than one dependent. Fleming Likes Local Audiences; Admits Magic Mostly Trickery By GALEN FREEBERG "Bellingham audiences are among the best, and I've enjoyedplaying for them," was Dr." Paul Fleming's comment after his performance Tuesday night. Dr. Flemingshould knowâ€”this makes his fourth return engagement since his initial performance in 1910.Fleming, a handsome man whose looks belie his 63 years, was kind enough to grant an interview afterthe performance. He was very cooperative and congenial in spite of the fact that he was greatlypressed for time. Fleming admits that his whole program is trickery, but says it leaves the publicpuzzled, as it has many magicians. He first became interested in magic when he saw Harry Kellar,famous magician, perform in 1908. He considers Kellar very much superior to Houdini, becauseHoudini's technique was crude and his field limited, while Kellar was an accomplished all-aroundmagician. He has been presenting programs for 50 years; 10 as an amateur and 40 as a professional.His brother has toured with him since 1914, and his wife since their marriage in 1920. Dr. Flemingpractically leads a double life. During the school year he is known as Dr. Paul Gemmill, a leadingeconomist of the country, writer of text books, and professor at the University of Pennsylvania, andduring the summer he tours the country presenting shows of magic. He does this because he feels thatit is an enjoyable way to supplement his income. His show, which was one of the best attended of the summer artist and lecture series, was greeted by an enthusiastic audience and enjoyed by all. ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1952 July 25 - Page 2 ---------- State Can Profit By New Gl Bill A distinctly different Bill of Rights has been enacted for veterans of theKorean war. Instead of paying the veteran's tuition and registration fees directly to the college hechooses, the government will give the veteran a lump sum with which to pay his fees, buy his books,and pay his living expenses. The consequences of this change are apparent. More veterans willchoose good colleges with low registration fees. Western Washington, as a college with low registrationfees and no tuition, stands to benefit by this new legislation. What benefits Western in turn benefits the people of the state by increasing the supply of thoroughly trained public school teachers. It wouldtherefore be contrary to their own interests for the people of this state, through their legislators, to choose at this time to institute a tuition fee at the state colleges of education. If a stiff tuition fee, as has beenseriously considered by state legislators, is actually imposed, it will serve to drive away from thecolleges of education many young veterans who have so much to contribute to the teachingprofession and to the development of America's largest resource, her youth. Louder Voter Voices Will Quiet Bosses Television and radio this year have brought the American citizen a closer glimpse of thepresidential nominating conventions than he has ever had before. In some respects, the at-home listenerand viewer had a clearer idea of the proceedings than had the bewildered delegate on the floor of theconvention. Yet there are limitations to the television camera and the radio microphone. The cameracould enter only the convention amphitheatre and some caucus rooms; if had no access to theconcealed locations where back-stage m a n a g e rs manipulated and bosses bartered. Themicrophone recorded, only the window-dressing oratory; the bargains and deals were concluded safelydistant from the microphone and the public. The drama viewed by the public was a mere ratification ofdecisions already made in smoke-filled rooms. That the American people are tired of "ChicagoSteals'," synthetic boss-inspired drafts, and conventions of politicians controlled by a heir-archy of shadybosses is evident in the extensive sentiment favoring a national presidential primary. There are difficulties involved in establishing a standard national primary. There are weaknesses in existing state primaries. These things can best be worked out in the laboratories of state legislation during the next four years so that voter opinion will be fully and authoritatively expressed at the conventionsâ€”instead of beingaccidentally and incidentally expressed as now. College Men on Active Duty Bored in Alaska ByCARLIN FREEBERG This month has seen the homecoming of a great number of former WesternWashington students who have been serving with the Air Force in Alaska for the past year. During themiddle of Spring quarter, 1951, about two-score students from this school, who were members of thelocal Air National Guard unit, were called into active service, along with a comparable number of workingmen and a handful of high school students from Bellingham. This outfit, the 143rd A C W squadron,left Bellingham in the middle of May, and joined its components from other parts of Washington inSeattle. From there the 143rd was soon on its way to California. CALIFORNIA TO ALASKA Uponreaching California, the squadron was de- (Continued from Page 2) LITTLE MAN ON CAMPUS By BiblerROVING REPORTER Varied Opinions Expressed Concerning Principal's Certificate Requirements BySALLY RAMQUIST Should a master's degree be a requirement for a principal's certificate? Thisquestion seems to reappear quite regularly, but it is always voted down, usually quite unanimously. It was heatedly discussed at a recent meeting at Cheney, put was voted down, as usual. The reactions of thepeople on this campus were varied and contradictory. â€¢* J. S. Hankins, returning student fromBellingham, doesn't think an MA has anything to do with being a good principal. He doesn't believe it isnecessary as long as the individual has the qualifications for the job. An opposite stand was taken by Richard Han, returning student from Montana, working for his BA and general certificate. He thinks itshould be a necessary requirement: says it stands to reason that a person who holds an administrative job would naturally have to have the extra credits and the degree. Mary Gilbert, also a returning student working for a BA, doesn't think it is absolutely necessary, but that it would be desirable. She believes that a principal should have a higher education than the people working under him. Don Ferris, registrar, doesn't think a master's degree has the slightest bearing on the qualifications of a principal. He states,"The holder of a master's degree may or may not be a fit principal, and the m a in qualifications arepurely personal." o Taxes could be worse.

More Foreign Language In Grades Advocated MoreAmerican children should be given an opportunity as early as the third or fourth grade to start learning aforeign language, it was agreed at a recent conference of educators who met at the Federal Securitybuilding, Seattle. The conference was called by Earl J. McGrath, U. S. Commissioner of Education, inresponse to widespread evidence reaching the Office of Education that educators are becomingincreasingly concerned over the need to teach foreign languages more effectively in American schools,and to start that teaching at an earlier level. "The increased awareness of this problem," Commissioner McGrath said, "is bound up with recognition of America's.increasingly responsible role in international affairs, and that the American child who starts learning to speak another language will grow tounderstand more about the people of other countries." "It is very important," he emphasized, "that westimulate growth of this kind of understanding by the children who will become tomorrow's leaders." Theproblem of teaching modern language more effectively, he added, has been pointed up by one specificneed that is already acute and that will continue. "There is a positive foreign service need," he said, "for American men and women who can speak at least one foreign language fluently." ROSE-COLOREDVIEW Secrets of Weather and Magic Baffle Readers By JIM SIMON Ah, there is good news tonight!The weather under which we have so long suffocated is broken. But do we appreciate it? While weslaved over our books and as sweat poured off our foreheads we most ardently wished for coolerweather. Well the cool weather is here. Now as we slave over our books, and wrap that extra coat overour shoulders we wish it would warm up. There is no rest for the weary and no perfect temperature forstudying! "Wonder how he did that trick?" "It's as plain as the nose on your face. He did it thiswayâ€”Blah! Blah! Blah!" This reporter heard these and many comments like them at the magic show put on by Paul Fleming Tuesday night. It seems that each member of the audience is in his or her own rightan amateur magician. Of course some may have come close to his secrets7but the majority were justplain mystified and were lief to admit it. The show was a good one which had everybody wondering whathe would pull out of his hat, coat;- or glass next. But for the low-down on how he did those tricks just ask . . . what did I tell you! There is a little amateur magician in all of us, including me. * * * Do you realizethat a professor who comes 15 minutes late tor class is, indeed, a rare occurence. In fact he is in a class by himself. (A sociological tidbit I picked up.) In the economic field one professor made this startlingdiscovery. "The American dollar today doesn't have enough cents.to do anything worthwhile." I shallrestrain myself from making any comment on this quotation. I pass it on merely for those takingeconomics for what it's worth. (Probably less than the American dollar.) â€¢ * * * Enough of thisdigression! I must return to the news of the day. The event that is making the headlines tonight is theDemocratic convention. At the writing of this article a split in the party is imminent. Shades of 1948! TheSouth is again embattled with the rest of the country on what seems to me to be trivial issues. But if Imay gaze into my crystal ball I would predict that whether the party is split or goes into the ring as acompact fighting machine the odds are too great. It matters not who they nominate they are doomed togo down for the count of 10 in November. * * * A closing philosophical note. It has been said that thestudents who sleep in class learn more because the brain is more active. If you are courageous, are notdeterred by a flunk, I suggest you try it.

JOE MARTIN Shoe Repairs Sporting Goods 206 E. Holly morecollege man on active duty bored in alaska (Continued on Page 4) layed for a week at a camp near SanFrancisco. Then the boys were herded onto a troop ship, and the next thing they knew, they were inAlaska. There the squadron was split up. The greater part of the men was assigned to outpoststhroughout Alaska. Some were stationed in the southern part of that country, but the majority were in theinterior. Most of the men were assigned to duty at an outpost just outside of Fairbanks, some at the airforce base at Fairbanks, and the remainder at an outpost between Fairbanks and Nome, many, manymiles from nowhere. ' ' ' - The outpost life these men were compelled to lead was a new experience fornearly all. Being young, these men didn't enjoy tedium nor confinement, but such was their existence.They had their work. They had movies, books, a post exchange where small luxuries could be bought,and they had mail. Also furnished were entertainments such as ping-pong, pool, chess, and checkers.One might say, "what more could, a man ask?'' And to hear of these things one might be convinced thatthese diversions were sufficient; but it must be human nature to be dissatisfied, for these men weren'tcontent with their lot. Most often heard were the complaints that one' couldn't get enough physicalexercise, that the entertainment facilities weren't varied enough, and "How did I ever happen to getstuck in Alaska?" In short, it was a long, boring year. I t was a memorable year, and it's over. GradReturns to Enjoy Library He Advocated 30 Years Ago After being away from Western for 30 years,Charles E.'

The iron curtain has clanged down on another B a l k a n country. Another independent, self-governing republic has succumbed to one of the most s i n i s t e r dictatorships of modern times. Where will it end? Will it be Johnson, Eby, Chatterton, Borchardt, or Carey? Or will it be Ruth-ruff, Knowles, King, Dahl, or Anderson? You a re right . . . it will be one of them. Despite growing opposition from Dixie rebels a House judiciary sub-committee gave its stamp of -approval to President Truman's Civil R i g h t s program. T h e southerners contend that the problem of lynching should be left to the states. They argue, too, that the number of lynchings is decreasing. Evidently civil rights and the protection of an individual's life and liberty, as stated in the constitution, are only applicable when enjoyed by the same person that makes such statements. LONG REGIME REINSTATED . . . Earl Long, brother of the late Huey P. Long, received a top heavy vote in the Louisiana gubernatorial e l e c t i on Wednesday. "We will improve on everything Huey did," Earl declared. "The roads he built were good roads for their time . . . but now our roads must carry five times the traffic."

Earl CarrolPs Announcement Still Resting Securely As Publication Prom Time Nears Dream of Union Fay, Gronseth Handle Building May Become Reality Following considerable discussion upon the subject of a student center, the Board" of Control in its meeting Wednesday, February 25, authorized appointment of a permanent committee to study plans for a student union building. The committee will make a thorough investigation of the possibility of obtaining a new building or space in one of the new buildings now being planned. This group will also be authorized to study student centers at other colleges and to see how their construction was financed. In addition to this long-term policy' making, the committee will look into a possibility of setting up a coffee bar in the student lounge or somewhere on the campus. The site of the present ski shop was suggested. IRC Delegates Confirmed IRC president Bob Ingersoll appeared before the Board with a request for subsidization of the delegates' expenses to the Pacific Northwest College Congress being held at Whitman College in Walla Walla. The Board appropriated funds to cover transportation and subsistence not to exceed $150. Gloria Carey was authorized to make a journey to Eastern Washington College to hear National Student Association speakers and to study student center's at both Cheney and Ellensburg. I t was suggested that she might also visit Gonzaga University and Whitworth College. Minor Sports Report Asked Acting upon a resolution introduced in the meeting, the Board will ask Charles Lappenbusch, director of athletics, to appear before the meeting next week to continue discussion of the minor sports program. Any conclusions reached at Yakima in regard to the new league's attitude toward such a sports program will be reviewed. Color Filmed Attack Launched by Club Sunday, February 29, the Camera club will journey to Mount Baker for their first field trip of the year. The members of the club hope to find many interesting scenes to photograph. Kodachrome will be used for many of the shots. There are twenty-five students including, members of the faculty going on the trip. Members are: Dr. Morton Renshaw, d i r e c t o r; Marion Thornton, president; Paul Conners, James Smith, Ed Stoval, Mary Ann Theg and Mr. and Mrs. Bernie Lepeska. Past Prorri Goers Enjoy Event —Photo by Wayne Craig Publication's Prom "first nighters" will be impressed tomorrow evening with the manner in which the decorations committee has chosen to transform the heretofore cold lines of the Physical Education building. Using as a theme "Sky Room'.' all publications members will burn the midnight oil tonight to have the change-over complete for the reception at 8:30 p. m. Saturday. Gordy Downs and his popular orchestra will be on hand again for an evening of such enjoyable dancing pleasure as is pictured above at the 1947 Prom. Finishing Touch On Drama Production Applied Says Hoppe Finishing touches on the Division of Drama production of Goldsmith's famous comedy "She Stoops to Conquer" are reported underway. Director Victor Hoppe and Assistant Hannah Reimer have expressed the opinion that the play is now ready for its audiences. They promise a well cast, rapid and rollicking showing of this old theatrical piece. There will be three sponsored performances beginning Monday, March 1 when the Fidelia Circle of St. James Presbyterian church will be in charge of tickets. The Soropti-mist club is sponsoring Tuesday night, and the YWCA is selling tickets for Wednesday evening. Student nights are Thursday and Friday oi next week. I t is stressed by the management, however, that students may be allowed any night of the production if they wish to come on other than the school occasions. The play has a true Leap year theme, for Kate, although a country gal in England in 1773, stoops to conquer and gets her man. Patricia Wright gives a piquant performance as the young heroine, with Don Sayan as the bashful but personable lover. B. James, Pagels Eased In To Win Board Seats; 500 Votes Cast Bessie James and Guerd "Gus" Pagels were elected to serve four quarters on the Board of Control by the voting in Wednesday's election. They will begin their terms of office next quarter as four quarter woman and four quarter man or woman, respectively. "'" The 500 students who voted gave Miss James 186 votes with Arlene Swanson running a close second with 162. Pagels received 143 tallies and Bob Bain, running second, received 124. Others in the races for the two Board offices were Betty McLeod, Jerry Karnofski and Rosemary Provost. The amendment to the constitution providing for a slight change in the voting procedure was accepted by a 237 to 37 vote. Assembly Attendance Better The campaigning during the week was characterized by p o s t e rs throughout the halls and speeches in the assembly Tuesday morning. It was at this assembly that the nominees were given an opportunity to give their platforms and express their. views on student government. There were approximately 250 students attending, which was an increase over the attendance at the assembly held the previous week devoted to campaigns for the primary election. Enthusiasm Appreciated When he was asked his opinion concerning* the election, Halldor Karason, ASB president said; "The enthusiasm indicated by the posters and campaign speeches was encouraging even though only 500 students turned out to vote."

March 5 Approximately 100 girls from high schools in Northwest Washington counties will visit the campus of WWC for the AWS sponsored High School leaders conference on March 5. "To give the girls new ideas to take back to their high school clubs is our main aim, and to give them a glimpse of college life is our secondary aim," stated Marjorie Traul-sen, general chairman of the conference.

Paper Rated Satisfactory by A Majority of Subscribers Although it is impossible to please all of the people all of the time, the staff of the WWCollegian was assured that it was pleasing most of the people most of the time as a result of the recently tabulated WWCollegian questionaire. Although this type of sounding board may not coincide with a professional examination of the paper we are pleased that the general course of action followed by the WWCollegian has met with your approval. The first and foremost of our objectives, to edit a newspaper as nearly professional as possible, will continue; however, we will never 4lose sight of the fact that it is an organ of the students. The most controversial subject included in the questionnaire was the matter of continuance or elimination of so-called gossip .columns. Their continuance (at least for the balance of the quarter) was the overwhelming advice of questioned students. Although our paper will be discredited considerably when sent i n.to enter national competition, and although a majority of the staff is against them, they will continue. We were advised though, to improve them. To the first person suggesting a method of improving a chit-chat column, the staff of the WWCollegian will award the medal "Man or Woman of the Year.", Full results of the questionnaire will be published in an early issue'of tke WWCollegian. Election Turnout Forcasts Future . •-.Words.of deep appreciation have reached our ears concerning the• »better-than-average student participation in the past election. No doubt much of this appreciation is due the candidates themselves for the spirited manner in which they carried out.their campaigns. Although only 42 per cent of nearly 1200 students-:exercised their rights, possibly this number can well be used as a basis to predict a really red-hot student interest in the ASB election scheduled for Spring quarter. Many of the student still registered here can remember the spirited, but friendly, campaign that issued out of last year's ASB runoffs. This year promises to be even better.

Staff Photographers CUB REPORTERS: Laverne Brockmier, George Cole, Vivian Brown, Patricia Dodd, Paul Zorotovich, Ron Shearer, Curt Bach* Influx Of Veterans Creates Problems in Educational System By TOM BUSH Among the major reasons for postwar expansion in American colleges", as everyone is aware, is the flood of veterans to these institutions. The problems of veterans returning to take up interrupted educations do not arise because the veterans are veterans, but because there are so many of them. R. R. Hamilton, dean of law college", University of Wyoming, points this fact out in a report to the National Education Association. Veterans counselors in universities and colleges . over the nation have enumerated a few of the snags they have hit in their relations with returning men. Among them are age and experience differentials between the vet and younger men and women, and in some cases, physical and mental handicaps. Added to these are conditions caused simply by the presence of such large numbers. T h e se problems resolve themselves to the wild scramble for housing, and a safe place for married vets to leave their children when they and their wives are attending classes or are working. Leaders in higher education are asking themselves if the attitudes developed in the colleges will pass in a few years after the present crop of older students have ---------- WWCollegian - 1948 February 27 - Page 3 ---------- Friday;tFebnjary 27, i?4 Vy^terrv^^}ngtbnrtoll6ge of Education, Bellingham, Washington, . iWK--*0«*^« --«SJ»i»r-5l gt;Oi3 £ated House flews Men's Residence Hall We had a swell time Wednesday evening, when we' were hosts to the girls from Senior hall.

Others are talking of the day that they can turn in their equipment and forget about guarding, checking, steady shots and training for another yetar. Some hate to leave the maple courts, it's thrills, excitement and hard work for the better part of a year, while others are happy over the thoughts of being able to go out with the "gang" and staying up late. All in all they admit that it was a pretty poor season, with only six of fifteen conference games won. Still they tried their best. "Next year it'll be different." As for their non-conference games, the Hilltoppers won three and lost three. The last game was dropped to the Seattle College quintet by a 69-64 count. The Viks had whipped the Chieftains in December to the tune of 46-59. So they started the season with a loss (to the U. of W.) and wound up with one. The Hilltoppers. are all through for the season, and they are doing a fine job of holding down the fifth place position in the Winko league. Only if the W hitworthians lose their next two games can the Viks better their position, when they will be tied for fourth.

He is well liked as a sportsman, referee, and wise-cracker. Seattle audiences haven't seen such a personality since the days of Will Rogers. They call him Ruby the Ribber. * Why is it that pro-boxing has to be so crooked? Or is that the $64 question? Just last Sunday Sam Baroudi was knocked out in the ring and died six hours later without regaining consciousness. Before Baroude died, his manager and trainer were discovered at the airport preparing to leave the city. Now look at the Golden Gloves boxing tournament held in Seattle last weekend. There was not one single casualty or injury during the two days of fighting. You say they weren't fighting hard? Don't kid yourself, those boys put all they had into it. But the fights were operated on a clean basis, free from the corruption and fraud that is found in the pro boxing circle. The Baroudi incident is not the only example of crooked boxing; it is only the latest. Standings WINKO STANDINGS W L Pet.

We expect a few errors," said Charles F. Lappenbusch. It is spring again, and the horse-hide is beginning to fly. This week the Coast league teams started turning out, and Monday, March 1, the blue and white suits will be issued. This first call is for pitchers and catchers, but everybody will be welcome later in the week. This is to get legs and bodies loosened up. Lappy has hopes of good weather to help get arms and batting eyes into shape. Pitchers Needed There is a big cry for pitchers, so anyone that fits the general description is very welcome, according to the ball mentor. A schedule addition came out of the conference that Lappy attended in Yakima, College of Puget Sound will play the Vikings with the date unscheduled as yet. Lettermen Return Troubled "Quite a few lettermen are back from last year's squad, but they don't have- any positions sewed up," said Lappenbusch. Some of the returning lettermen are: Jerry Kar-nofski, catcher; Widge Black, Graham Bell, and Steve Kuljis. pitchers; Jack Burrell, Dick Burrell, Jack Ross, and Les Winders, infielders; outfielders, Hal Bartlow, Tom Poe and Mel Lindbloom. Lappenbusch's last caution, "Let's start out slow and not have any sore arms this year." Men's Hall No. I Still High Squad Like chess players finishing a tough scoring duel, Men's Hall No. 1 emerged from this weeks bowling race unchallenged for first place honors. After last week's four-way tie for this spot, it seemed as if many high scores and outstanding team totals would be made, but this didn't hold true. Of the four teams, not one carried away the total three points and Men's Hall No. 1 was the only one to take the two-point fol-lowup. The Tramps, Alley Cats and Men's Hall No. 3 took the three point payoffs this week. The Tramps received theirs from Men's Hall No. 2 while the Cats won three from the Lounge Hounds. Men's Hall No. 3 took theirs on a forfeit from Daniels. Hospice A, Men's Hall No. 1 and the Collegians were two point placers. The respective hard hit opponents for one point were the Lapps, Sehome, and Mathes. Other strange doings were also set on record for the week. Bill Kumbera of the Alley Cats and Howard Hardy of Men's Hall No. 1 brightened the competitive outlook by each raising a 189 point total for high singles honors. If this wasn't close enough, W. Hilliard of the Tramps ran a close second with 188. Hardy was also high two game total with 359 pins. Mermen Please Take Heed Sponsored by the WRA, an all school swimming meet will be held March 5.

At least the Wino's put Fall and Winter quarter championships together, and now they reign as the intramural basketball champions. The Wino's came from behind to defeat the Collegians 46 to 31. Halftime score: -Collegians 21, Wino's 20. Jeff Russell and Jack Prazer were high point men with 13 each. Russell plays for the Collegians, and Frazer for the • Wino's. Last night the Winos dumped the Hospice quintet 48 to 21 in the first game of the playoffs, thus eliminating the latter. This past week's games have been as snappy as ever. Four teams took wins by forfeits. Scores of the games of the past week arc as follows: In the A league Wednesday, the Winos won easily over the Cats by a score of 55 to 36; Thursday the Huntoon team beat out the Tigers 46 to 40; Friday the Tigers took a forfeit from the Cats for a score of 2 to 0; 2nd Tuesday the Huntoon squad dumped the Cats for a loss to the tune of 44 to 33. B league scores this week are: Wednesday the D Horns beat the Blue Devils 31 to 27; Thursday the Hoboes lost a close one to the D Horns 47 to 42; Friday the Hoboes took a forfeit from the Lost Ten 2 to 0; the Collegian gang also took a forfeit from the Blue Devils for a score of 2 to 0; 2nd Tuesday the Huntoon squad overpowered the Daniels five to the tune of 51 to 37. C league scores for the past week are as follows: Thursday the Swedes lost to the Pinochle Five 25 to 17; Tuesday the Pirates took a forfeit from the Swedes 2 to 0; 2nd Tuesday the Jerks were nosed out in a close high scoring game of 52 to 50 against the Pinochle Five. / / i Old Ironsides// Cut Courtesy Bellingham Herald Frank 'Moose' Zurline has one of the toughest jobs on the basketball courts.

As well as handling the basketball he can handle the pigskin, as he proved to the crowds last fall. Wednesday the B league had two teams tied for top position. In a close game, the Collegian squad eked out a win from the D Horns to win top spot. Goldmine Opportunities May Await Those With Money For Mt. Baker Development Ifcy FRAN CORY Do you know of anyone who would be willing to sink a substantial sum into the development of the skiing facilities at Mount Baker? If you do, there may be a chance for him to take advantage oi this golden opportunity in the near future. Wilfred Davis, regional forestry office, visited the Mount Baker area last Sunday and though no federal funds are available at the present time, the recreation division has the authority to grant commercial investors the right to go in and expand the present facilities. All we need now is a favorable recommendation from Davis, a few financial backers, and Mount Baker will have the skiing facilities that other top ranking resorts have. %50 yd. backstroke for men 25 yd. backstroke for women 75 yd. medley relay for men 75 yd. medley relay for women 100 yd. free style relay for men 100 yd. free style relay for women Points will be awarded on the basis of 5 for first place, 3 for second place and 1 for third. A diving exhibition will be given during the meet. The pool will be open every day from 4:00 to 5:00 W. R. Hoard, of Wenatchee, Wash., had a rendezvous with death last- Sunday when he was caught in an avalanche and buried beneath a mountain of snow while skiing at Stevens Pass. Rescued anc revived by the Ski Patrol after being buried for almost a n h o u r he stated, "Strangely enough, my life didn't pass before me. I thought of my wife and children, and added up my life insurance, and the next thing I knew, someone said, 'He's still alive'. Plans for the all college ski meet scheduled for Sunday, March 7, have been delayed this week. However, a definite program will be made out at a Ski club meeting PPPPP

The election is over and the country is ingood (or bad) hands, depending on which party you belong to. If nothing else is said it will be agreedby both sides that the results were close. In our mock election the Republicans won by about a10% margin â€” but I suppose the rest of the nation didn't get the news in time. I wish that even a third as much interest was taken in ASB affairs as was shown in the national election. The local election didhave one result that affects each of you. The people of Bellingham, with prodding by the students andinterested organizations, passed the Civic Field proposal. This means more adequate and usablefacilities for all local events, football games in particular. Let's hope that the project is realized as soon as possible, for it will not only bring about greater interest and attendance at games, but will generallyenhance the community. It's In the Contract There have been sounds rising from the Rec Room to theeffect that, "The price is too high," or "we can make a better deal downtown." These claims are inreference to the pool tables. The people in charge of the room inform me that the tables are rented, withthe price stated in the contract. The $1-20 must be charged to keep them in operation. Perhaps if you all play a little we can get enough money to purchase tables of our own, and then establish a moreequitable rate. With the Rec Room in mind, it should be remembered that there are chess andcheckers at no cost, and table tennis at 25c per hour. This is also the place Cor you card players toplay. Make use of the room, it is yours. Have a happy Thanksgiving and don't eat any poisonouscranberries or old drumsticks. Western Washington C O L L E G I A N Vol. LIU, No. 7 A WeeklyNewsmagazine Western Washington College Bellingham, Washington Second-class postage paid atBellingham, Washington Printed at Pioneer Printing Co., Bellingham Subscription $6.25 per year Dou*rSimpson Editor Viggo Hansen Advisor Page 2 Dear Marshall . . . To the Editor, This is in reference to a recent article under the heading "The Marshall Plan" that concerns itself with Western's "den ofiniquity," the Recreation Room. I also attended the same function that Mr. Bronson wrote about and Iam surprised that he was so terribly shocked. I saw no pulsating, provocative dances nor did the room seem to reek with a jungle atmosphere. The students were merely dancing or talking with their friends. True, they were not doing the minuet. And as for the quality of the music, I too was sorry that Montovani couldn't make it. Perhaps the reason that I didn't see what Mr. Bronson saw was the fact that I didn'thave a column to write. Does Mr. Bronson really believe that the several thousands of students whodon't attend student government meetings are all spending their waking hours in the Recreation Hall?I believe that it is indeed unfortunate that a reporter must write in a manner that only reveals his owncleverness, sharpness and pointed humor. It is even more unfortunate when this is done at the expenseof truth, objectivity and good taste. Lee S. Farrell To the Editor, Mr. Bronson thinks that this Collegeshould have a marching band. He seems to feel that the main reason is to entertain local high schoolstudents, hoping that their bands will march, in return, at our Homecoming. Does Mr. Bronson feel thatthis is more important for this school to provide entertainment for the local high schools or to prepare our students to do an adequate job of teaching? If Mr. Bronson is advocating that the College's purpose is merely to provide entertainment for the local yokels, then why not turn the whole of educationaltraining in this direction. The literature majors, such as Mr. Bronson, could give poetry readings lorthe local Ladies Aid. Physical education majors could present feats of skill and strength for thedelight and entertainment of the populace, much in the manner of the Roman circuses. Historymajors could present historical pageants on such stirring events as Washington getting fitted for falseteeth. We are sure WESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAN that Mr. Bronson's fertile mind can think ofmore spectacles for the delight and edification of the "hoi polloi." The College already lets thecitizens of this city in free to all of the Artist and Lecture programs, except when the College feels that there won't even be standing room for the students. In fact at the second lecture that "Vincent Pricegave here, a number of students were turned away while the people of Bellingham filled many seats inthe Auditorium. We feel that the main purpose for the existence of the College is not to contribute to thesocial well-being of this town. It was conceived to provide teachers for the State of Washington, although lately it has extended its education into other fields. If the Music Department feels that it can provide the state with better music teachers and musicians by concentrating on concert music rather thansupplying local high schools with entertainment for their homecomings, then we say let us have aconcert band and to H with the high school homecomings. Don Schmidt Dave Lewis To the Editor, The"den of iniquity" as our surveyor of the campus scene so readily referred to in last week's Collegianhas been, for the past few weeks, a source of enjoyment for about 10% of the student body. The "manwith the Oxford accent" apparently does not realize that at some publicized student activities the reason for an attendance below 10% is due to a lack of interest by students of our "un-social romping" campus. II just twice the energy were expended on organized student activity (which is below par because ofparticular persons in charge of Viking Union activities) sun helmets, ber-muda shorts and pseudo-Oxford would no longer be found in abundance on our "Mocombo" campus. As ior the "obliviousdrummer," it is the opinion of this writer that the half-amused crowd watching and listening is moreexhilarating than certain foul smelling pipes (or a particularly obnoxious brand of tobacco). Thepenetrating sounds heard in the Viking Union Grotto were, for the benefit of those not present those twoevenings, sounds of a swing band which has played at various colleges and public dances in the area. This group is grateful to November 16, 1960 ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1960 November 16 - Page 3 ---------- the Director of Student Activities for permitting them to rehearse in the Recreation Room. Those who arereferred to as characters in a book by Margaret Mead apologize to the brave venturer who soiled hisclothes mingling with those in the "Grotto of Vice." Richard Morris More Marching Band To the Editor,In last week's edition of the Collegian I was truly floored when I read the quote "Everyone else has one, why can't we have one too?" This question â€” allegedly made by the Legislature concerning the"Marching Band" issue, shows the simple ignorance that institutions such as ours supposedly abolish.Are we a flock of sheep that must jump off the cliff simply because the goat in front of us does? Suppose that every institution of higher learning in the U.S. had a prolific marching band that marched at everyopportunity (this certainly is not the case) â€” does this make it imperative that we do likewise? Canwe not break away from tradition veiled in ignorance that has over-stayed its welcome? If we are tohave a marching band let's have one because we need it â€” not because "Joe" has one. The secondquote that certainly raised a question in my mind was a statement made by a certain Dr. Clifford Leedy."The marching band is certainly one of the most effective public relations devices a school can have."This, if true, is a very gloomy reflection of our educational system! Is Dr. Leedy interested in giving thestudents an education or experience in music, or is he trying to use the music students to create famefor his domain? Though this is 'perhaps' somewhat harsh, I think Dr. Leedy would do well to considerwhat he has said. The same applies to those here at Western who advocate or defend Dr. Leedy'sstatement. Do we want Western to be famous for its football team, its basketball team or its marchingband â€” or do we want it to be noted for the brilliance of the people it graduates? Many of the mosthighly esteemed colleges in the country, such as Reed College in Oregon, are noted for the quality oftheir graduates rather than a nationally rated football team or a magnificent marching band. The thirdstatement in last week's Collegian that caught my attention was made by Mr. Marshall Bronson. inhis'column, "The Marshall Plan," was the following statement concerning the marching band issue."The November 16, 1960 only people against the issue seem to be the band members and theiraf.iliated groups." I would like to ask Mr. Bronson one question: Who on earth is more alfected byWestern's music policy than the students in the Music Department? I have looked long and hard, but I have still to see Mr. Bronson slopping down the middle of Battersby Field banging his teeth out with a$500 horn! Dave Solbach Homecoming Royalty To the Editor, You stated in the Oct. 28 issue thatsome changes need to be made in the selection of our Homecoming Royalty. You went on to say,"Suppose, for example, that Connie Hughes, Miss Washington, were to come to Western. Wouldn'tshe be capable of being Queen? Isn't she poised and pretty enough for the honor?" Miss Hughes may be pretty enough, but she fails to fulfill the other qualifications to be Western's Homecoming Queen.Homecoming Queen is an honor that the student body bestows upon a deserving girl at Western: onewho has attended Western for more than three or four weeks; one who has contributed a portion of hertime, sometimes a major portion, through activities for the benefit of Western, helping to make this amore wonderful college for the incoming students. A Homecoming Queen, I think is one whorepresents the student body. A representative of the people is one who knows the people; one who hasworked with them; one who has shared their troubles and happy times; and one who holds a truefeeling of Western. A junior perhaps, but a senior even more fits this description. (Having a seniorprincess is another way of giving another senior girl an equal chance to represent her school.) Who is more deserving, a freshman girl or a senior girl? Or better still, who represents the student body most, a freshman of three or four weeks or a senior girl of three or four years? Mr. Editor, beauty, I am sure, isnot everything. There must be something else. With beauty, one can catch a person's attention, but ittakes a little more to hold a person's attention. In closing, I would like to ask this, have we ever had aqueen that we were ashamed of, or one that was downright homely? Evelyn Freeman WESTERNWASHINGTON COLLEGIA Reply to Freeman In defense of my editorial, I would like to make a fewcomments. First of all, I did not state that beauty was the only requisite to being a queen, as you seemto imply. However, I do feel that beauty is one quality that cannot be overlooked in the selection of aqueen. Perhaps I should have listed service as well as beauty and poise as requisites. Servicedefinitely should be considered. Nevertheless, I maintain that there are many juniors, sophomores andeven freshmen who do more for this school in three or four weeks than a great many seniors do in threeor four years. You present a highly idealistic image of senior girls. You seem to picture all senior girlsas a combination of Ann Landers and Florence Nightingale. Why not put them all in the Royal Court?I would still choose Connie Hughes if she were here and measured up to the above qualifications.â€”Editor To the Editor, We think that a change is needed in the selection of Homecoming royalty.Because Homecoming is one of the biggest events of the year, being among Homecoming royalty should be one of the biggest honors of the year. But everyone knows that being a Homecoming princess is notvery significant. This is because representation at the Nominating Assembly is so poor. Any girl whowould like to have a picture of herself on display in the halls need only brins several friends to theassembly to achieve this end. We have never nominated the four prettiest, most poised girls of any class to run for Homecoming royalty. And how can we select the most qualified candidates when we seethem only briefly, hear their names only once, have no opportunity to hear them speak, and knownothing of their personalities? The queen should definitely be a senior girl. The queen is not chosen onlyfor her beauty and poise, but also for her activity in and service to the College. The honor belonjs to a girl who has been here long enough to earn it. Inge Wills Sharon Larson About Those Campuses . . . Tothe Editor, One of the main problems in our world today no matter where we look, on the international,national or even college level, is that of communications. To communicate information Page 3 ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1960 November 16 - Page 4 ---------- accurately is of vital importance in any situation, whether it be in discussing an issue with a collegeprofessor or taking part in a casual conversation among friends. In last week's Collegian, thereappeared a letter concerning an incident that happened at Edens Hall. Obviously the writer was notaware of all the details concerning this case and misled the readers regarding the situation. I am notsaying that this was done intentionally. I am saying, however, that the letter as it appeared was notonly inaccurate but gave a false impression of dormitory policy. The girl in question had theopportunity to appeal the campus to the AWS Standards Board, which she did. The Board reviewedthe whole problem and upheld the original decision. It is our hope that students will accept theopportunity to express themselves through the Collegian, but we also hope for a degree of accuracyand fair play. Lynne Engelsen Athlete of the Year Dear Mr. Myers, In regard to your suggestion on theselection of the "Athlete of the Year," I would like to express myself. First, the nominations for thehonor are made by the "W" Club. They, and nobody else, choose the most outstanding players fromeach sport. After the athletes are selected by the club, their names are turned over to Helmsmen for ageneral election. Now you suggest a better way of choosing the "Athlete of the Year." Apparently youfeel that the student body, after having a selection of candidates placed before them, is unable tomake the right decision. All the nominations are deserving of the title, so how can the student bodymake a mistake? I must admit that personal feelings do enter in when the student body makes theirchoices, but if the "W" Club or some other organization made the choice, wouldn't some of theirpersonal feelings enter in on their selection?

It may seemstrange to start a discussion using Western terminology and end it using Eastern terminology, butremember that this is a rather strange column in the first place in that it is written by a Christian onbasically the subject of Eastern thought and religion. I hope that it was made clear in the last columnhow we move from one thing to another wondering what we are looking for and end up by finding thatwhat we have found in the negative aspect, or feminine aspect, of nature (mother) and what we havediscovered in ourselves to be aggressive and active (father) are not ends, but rather necessary restingplaces. Are we looking for brother? Christ would say we are . . . as would many great religious leaders of the East. Love and Brotherhood "Love one another even as I have loved you," said Christ. He seems tohave summed up what the Eastern teachers had tried to put across for years. Sri Krishna told his friendArjuna, "He who burns with the bliss and suffers the sorrow of every creature in his heart making hisown each bliss and each sorrow . . . him I hold highest." Buddha illustrated the point when he saw theparadise he had earned and still choose to WESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAN stay behind andhelp his brothersâ€” his fellow men who were such a part of him that departing while they â€¢stayed in a painful state of ignorance would be denying a portion of himself liberty. His fellow men were indeed aportion of him. A Western analogy would be "Him in whom we live and have our being." When truebrotherhood is attained within, or in a philosophical sense, when all the parts truly long to know theirtotalâ€”and this desire is set into motionâ€”then a ilame is kindled that can never be extinguished. Setthe world on fireâ€”I dare you! Let this search for your brother, this desire to find a more completepicture of yourself, commence. Christ believed this and set forth ideas into the world to literally purgeout the impurities of man. Look at the worid in all its beauty, and ugliness, and then still say, "I love lifeand want to live . . . to set it free." To close I shall once again quote from Rukmini. "A little bird hasnestled in my heart. Its name is love. Stay! Fly thou not away but build a nest to cradle the universe oneday." ECSA Conferencce at Whitworth The first of three annual meetings of the Evergreen ConferenceStudents Association will be held at Whitworth on Nov. 18 and 19. The year's principal meeting will beheld in the spring at the University of Puget Sound. The convention will not only cover discussions ofmutual problems faced by the ECSA, but will also discuss the possibility of establishing a centralfiling system, consideration for membership of new schools and the student government award project.Participating schools are Western Washington, Eastern Washington, Central Washington, Whitworth,Pacific Lutheran, Puget Sound and Seattle Pacific. RIFLE CLUB Another new club, the Viking Rifle Club, has been organized. The club plans demonstrations of military weapons, competitive matchesand field trips to nearby military bases. Roy Yothers is the organizer and president, and Mr.Maconaghie, the campus cop, is the advisor. Watch the bulletin board for announcements ofmeetings.

Curtain willrise on the French comedy at 8:30, Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings in the College Auditorium.Dr. Kenneth Lyman, a patient perfectionist, is new to Western's speech and drama departments thisyear, and is making his first attempt at directing a WWC production. According to those familiar withthe play, Hotel Paradiso is a challenge to any director because of the business, movement andblocking involved. Boniface and lover "Get With It" Dr. Lyman says that he selected this play because it is an excellent farce, not being dated with topical references unfamiliar to modern audiences, and isenjoyable for everyone. Cast members are by now quite used to hearing his frequently used, "Get with it." Comparing Dr. Lyman to past directors, those familiar with drama at Western seem to agreethat he does not involve himself as intimately with the action, as have past directors; but,nevertheless, he is receiving comparable results. Partially due to the fact that a new director has taken over, several new actors â€” freshmen, transfer students and upperclassmen who have never beforeappeared â€” will be introduced. Seen in major roles will be Dennis South, Boniface; Julie Waddell,Angelique; Alice Swerd-feger, Marcelle; Ric Stephens, Cot; Ted Fiorito, Maxime; Bonnie Loop, Victoire;and Bob Jevne, Martin. Minor acting, although equally as important as major roles in the success orfailure of the presentation, is done by John Yeager, First Porter and First Cop; Don Smith, SecondPorter and Inspector; Judy Leggs, Violette; Nadine Person, Marguerite; Judy Klinger, Paquerette; Mary Demick, Pervenche; Dave Robertson, Anniello; Bob Burgoyne, Georges; Nina Paynter, a lady; ArtMickel, a Duke and Second Cop; and Mark Flanders, Tabu. Hotel Paradiso was written in French byGeorges Feydeau, and translated and adapted for the stage by Peter Glenville. Alec Guiness, known forhis acting in Bridge on The River Kwai, played Boniface, the part being tackled by Dennis South thisweekend, in a British production. Situations Affect the Comedy Being a farce, the situations ratherthan the characterizations affect the comedy. The characters are one dimensional stereotypes, easilyrecognizable in everyday life. A few of these comic puppets are a French coquette, a henpeckedhusband, a domineering wife, a high-brow intellectual and a stuffy businessman. Judging from recentrehearsals, the play should be a delightful rollicking comedy, typically French. The various accentsrequired of the actors are handled almost professionally, but as Dr. Lyman points out, volume is aproblem. Commenting on the success of the production, Lyman said, "Of course, they are never perfect, There is always some weakness; however, being a fast-moving play with a clever dialogue and fresh,original humor, I guarantee that it will be extremely enjoyable for everyone." Noncommital members ofthe cast refused to offer any new insight to the production, saying only, "People in the theatre aren'tsupposed to say anything but 'the play is coming along fine'." Students will be admitted free bypresenting an ASB card; however, tickets will be required for the general public. They can bepurchased for $1.00 in the Viking Union Smoke Shop. Boniface and wife LEGISLATURE Meeting onTuesdays by Yvonne Westman Tuesday is now the official meeting date of the Legislature, since thechange at the Oct. 26 meeting. The 4 p.m. meeting time was maintained. Carson Boysen, ElectionsBoard Chairman, reported that letters were sent to other colleges concerning the procedures onfreshman elections and problems there involved. He hoped return letters would arrive before proceduresfor winter and spring elections must be decided next week. A proposed maintenance program forLakewood was presented by Facilities Board Chairman Bill Moore, and was passed on a one year trial basis. The program, which will employ student help, will be financed from the Facilities budget with ayearly maximum of $1,584 allotted. Moore hoped this program would make Lakewood usable during thewinter. Moore also felt that a sub-control committee should be set up to manage Lakewood. In thisway ideas on maintenance and improvements could be perpetuated, rather than the present procedure which leaves no standards or set of references to go by from year to year. "Important at Taverns" Aspecial report was given by Bob Brown, chairman of the I.D. Committee Discussion of the pros andcons of I.D. pictures followed, and in the midst of a denouncement of pictures on ASB cards, aninterested onlooker piped up that "They are Page 6 WESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAN November16, 1960 ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1960 November 16 - Page 7 ---------- very important at taverns in town." President Jerry Baker pointed out that this was the purpose of stateliquor cards â€” not school I.D. cards. A later report will again be presented to the board. A request forfinancial assistance was next presented in a letter from Bill Slemko, president of PSPA, a regionalstudent leadership program. The monetary request was for California Polytechnical University, which recently lost 22 students in a plane crash. The Board decided to send a letter of condolences andto inquire about the planned usage of the money before considering the financial request. A requested$120 traveling expense money for ten 'students attending a Model United Nations conference in April atthe University of Oregon was granted. Athletic Scholarship Money Granted At the preceding Nov. 1meeting, $2,142 was granted for athletic scholarships for the budget year 1961-1962. This earlyguarantee will enable Football Coach Lounsberry to begin recruiting. The Viking Rugby Club wasalso granted $61.60 at this meeting, under the stipulation that they follow the club policy for 1959-1960.Also at the Nov. 1 meeting the Viking Sounder's Constitution was accepted, and a list of 15 facultymembers recommended at the Oct. 26 meeting was narrowed down to five names. From this list Dr.Jarrett and Baker will select the faculty member to replace Dr. Cederstrom, whose term as facultyadvisor to the Board expires at the end of this quarter. Seventy dollars was reimbursed to Writer Editor Tino Sousanes at the Oct. 26 meeting. The money, which had been designated as prize money for the1959-1960 Writer contest, had reverted to budget control last summer due to the late announcementof contest winners. PREGRADUATE ASSISTANCESHIPS 7 Western recipients Earlier this year theCollegian announced that the University of Washington in conjunction with Western and four othercolleges and universities throughout the state were administering a program of pregraduateassistantships in the interest of encouraging superior undergraduate students to undertake studiesleading November 16, 1.960 to careers in college and university teaching. Each student chosen toparticipate in the program will be under the direction of a professor at his own institution. Furthermore,each will receive special counseling and monetary grants in the amounts of $350 for juniors and $600 forseniors. Winners from Western include the following: Brent G. Remmert, Andrea F. Henry, Gerald L.Caton and David L. Page. Each of the above will receive $350 in keeping with his junior standing. Thefollowing seniors will each be granted $600: George A. Fuhr, Charles L. Bertrand and Ruth F. Talmage.Among those students selected to benefit from the program were eight from the University ofWashington, eight from Gonzaga University, eight from Whitman College, seven from WesternWashington College and five each from Eastern and Central Washington Colleges. PHILIP HANSONUnusual Shakespearean Actor here Nov. 22 Touring under the sponsorship of the concert producingassociation, Vox Poetica, Philip Hanson, Shakespearean actor, will perform his one-man show "Kings and Clowns" on the evening of Nov. 22, at 8:15 p.m. in the College Auditorium. Hanson, widely notedand acclaimed for his acting ability, will include in his presentation over 50 parts, some oi which areMalvolio, King John, Hotspur, Dogberry, Richard II, Hamlet, Falstaff, Bottom and MacBeth. Perhapsthe actor's most unique and unusual characteristic â€” aside from his remarkable talent â€” is that heperforms without costumes or scenery, using only a chair and two spotlights. The result is an amazingdemonstration of versatility, further evidenced by the fact that he plays both humorous and tragic scenesand both male and female parts in a single scene! Contrary to the impression given above, Hanson isnot renowned as a master of dramatic trickery. His true fame is the result of a long and brilliant careerwith the Oregon Shakespearean Festival. Although only 35 years of age, Hanson's first performance ofShakespeare took place over twenty years ago when he played the roles of Cassius and Casea in"Julius Caesar." Since that time he has established himself as WESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAone of the leading actor-directors of the Shakespearean Festivals at Ashland, Oregon and San Diego,California. Mr. Hanson's present tour has taken him to schools, theaters and colleges across thecountry; it is an interesting tribute to the man's ability that he has been widely accepted by personsfrom junior high age up through and including adult theatergoers. To borrow a favorite phrase of themovie critics, this is "one to see." MOCK ELECTION Republicans Sweep Contrary to the nationalelection, the Republicans swept the presidential and gubernatorial races in Western's mock election held last Monday. Approximately 43.5% of the student body, 1274 students, cast their ballots in theelection sponsored by the Young Democrats and Young Republicans. President-elect John Kennedyand his running mate Lyndon Johnson picked up 578 Democratic votes, while the Republicancombination of Richard Nixon and Henry Cabot Lodge received 696 ballots. Western students backedanother loser, casting 666 votes for Republican Lloyd Andrews, as Albert Rosellini, statewide victor,received only 573. Louis Bruno was the favorite for Superintendent of Public Instruction, gathering 626votes to 46 for A. T. Van Devanter. The pro-Republican results at Western seem to be typical of thetrends in Northwest colleges, as similar victories were recorded at nearly all the other colleges havingmock elections. WESTERN PLAYERS Drama club reactivated "Western Players," the school'sdrama club, has been reactivated. The aim of the club is to create a group on campus with an activeinterest in the theatre. Officers elected at the first meeting were Jerry Yar-borough, president; SteveBuss, vice-president; Bonnie Loop, sceretary; Lorri Booth, treasurer; and Bob Burgoyne, historian. Theclub has been active in publicity and ticket selling to the public for the year's first play, Hotel Para-diso, presented this Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Page 7 ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1960 November 16 - Page 8 ---------- MY IMPRESSIONS OF AMERICANS by Myrna Gill I was sitting idly by the Rain Forest oneafternoon. Nothing extraordinary about this; I was merely observing the Americans passing by me. In17 months in the United States, I have acquired some knowledge of American ways. My ownexperiences have added to what I have learned from books. Although I am rather positive in my views,my mind is open to change. What elements in you make you different from me? Perhaps an analogycan best present my opinion. To me an Oriental is like a leafless tree in autumn. A spirit ofindividuality pervades his being. He is splendid in his bareness and utter simplicity. He stands undefiable. Devoid of affectatious garments, the Oriental has disciplined his emotions and is conscious of the power of truthfulness. He is old with wisdom. The American is the leaf. He may be falling from the branchesjust now or has fallen to the ground. His hue changes lirom the greenness of spring to the brownness offall. As a leaf, he is blown by a mild breeze. Together with other leaves, they remind me of the rushing, flowing water of the Rain Forest. Where the American concerns himself with the present, theOriental stands tor his past glories. But like the naked tree that lifts its hands to the sky, the Orientallooks to the future. AMERICAN EDUCATION WEEK Attention was focused on education last week inthe schools of the nation. The week of Nov. 6-12 has been set aside every year as AmericanEducation Week at the request of the American Legion after World War I. Its purpose is to bring about acloser understanding between the general public and those engaged in the educational process. Thisyear the theme was "Stronger Schools for the 60's." Western observed ABW with a series of lecturesand films. Monday at 4 p.m. in the Viking Union Lounge there was a large turnout for Dr. Jarrett's lectureon "Religion and Higher Learning." Dr. Jarrett mentioned the provisions in the Constitution of theState of Washington for religion and religious freedom. Page 8 He noted that the separation of churchand state in this country tends to discourage the teaching of religion â€” that is teaching in an objective way about religion and its institutions. He pointed out the number and diversity of opportunities offeredin religion which might be included in the curriculum confines. A studious, descriptive analysis of worldreligions is a part of a liberal education, he reminded the listeners. He posed the question of the degreeof interest at Western in getting better knowledge of religion, its institutions and beliefs. An informalcoffee hour followed. Tuesday at 3 p.m. Mr. Mumme of Education Department spoke in the VikingUnion Building. His topic was "Quality Teachers." He defined the role of a teacher and gave operational deiinitions of teacher competence. The six teacher roles which he suggested were as a director oflearning, as advisor and guide, as a mediator of the culture, as a link with community, as a member of the school staff, and as a member of the profession. He then discussed the competency expectedof a teacher. Wednesday afternoon Dr. Ross spoke on "New Horizons in the Teaching Profession." Adiscussion and coffee hour followed. Several educational films were shown throughout the week, eachfollowed by discussions with faculty members acting as resource guides. Jim Boyles was thechairman of American Education Week on campus. The organizations participating were StudentWEA, Kappa Delta Pi, the Association for Childhood Education, Music Education National Conference and United Campus Christian Foundation. SWEA, MENC, ACE and Kappa Delta Pi are especiallyorganized for teacher education students. FACULTY RECITAL A Faculty Recital will be presented in the Viking Lounge at 8 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 20.

GROSS COUNTRY Trethewey wins again Don Trethewey, theNorthwest's premier small college distance runner, earned another trip to the NAIA Cross Country Meetlast week. Trethewey led from the start as he won the NAIA District 1 championship for the secondtime in three years. His time for the four mile event was 21 minutes 35.6 seconds, some 17 secondsahead of the number Page 10 On to Omaha . . . two man, Don Brown of Seattle Pacific College. Asa team the, Viks finished second behind the SPC Falcons. Dave Page was fifth and Ken Copelandninth as the Viks made their strongest showing of the young season. Other point getters were GeorgeSevier and Robert Tarlok. Held on the Ellensburg golf course, the event had entries from St. Martins and Whitworth in addition to the Viks and Falcons. Next week the harriers will compete in an AAUmeet at Snohomish. WESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAN INTRAMURALS Swimmers set threerecords South Edens set the only new records, but North Edens garnered the most points in thewomen's division of last week's intramural swim meet. In the men's division, Skip Zappfe set a newrecord in the 50 yard butterfly event as he paced Mother's to a convincing win. Zappi:e covered thedistance in 30 seconds flat to erase the record set last year by Daryl Zentner. Joann Lindahl had a handin both records set in the women's division. Her time of 14.4 seconds in the 25 yard free style clippedfour-tenths of a second off the record she set last year. She also anchored the record setting SouthEdens 100 yard relay. This quartet racked up a time ol 1 minute 3.4 seconds as compared to theprevious low of 1 minute, 5.6 seconds. In the team competition, Mother's won eight blue ribbons whilecompletely dominating the men's division. The Aquanauts finished a distant second, 35 pointsbehind Mother's total of 71. Other men's teams were the Blue Bar-'nuckles -17, Silent Service -12, and the Solos - 2. For the women, North Edens scored 58 points as they outpointed their sisters from South Edens by 14 points. Behind them came, in order, the Mix-Ups with 37 pts. and the Pool Poopers with3. RUGBY Ex-footballers pace win Using a line-up sprinkled with former football players, Western'sRugby Club rolled to their third win in four outings last Saturday, stomping the Vancouver Rowing Club26 to 0. The ruggers were paced by Bill Hutsinpillar and Max Hatch who scored eight and six pointsrespectively. One of the highlights of the game was the return of former footballer Ken Burton whofirmed up the Viks lineup by his outstanding play at the scrum hall" position. Next Saturday the Viksmeet the Victoria College fifteen in a home encounter. The game will be played at Shuksan playfield at2:00. November 16, 1960 ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1960 November 16 - Page 11 ---------- FOOTBALL "Wait till next year" by Tony Whitefield Western's young Vikings closed out the 1960football season with two bruising and hard fought battles with Central's Wildcats and the nationallyranked Whitworth Pirates. Two weeks ago, Jim Lounsberry's Viks journeyed to Ellensburg to meetCentral in a return match. It was Central's Homecoming and the 'Cats were sky high for that one. Striking early, Central piled up a 20 to 0 half-time lead. In the second half, after Beringer Wolf making a ifewadjustments, Western made a better showing but the Wildcats still managed to thwart the Vikingoffense. Central meanwhile racked up two more TD's to give the 'Cats a 33 to 0 victory. Last Saturday,Bellingham fans got a look at the nation's leading small college passer, Denny Spurlock; the then 7thranked small college team in the nation, Whitworth's Pirates; and one of the most bruising footballgames seen in a long time. Two early bad breaks put the Viks in the hole in the first quarter.Whitworth, capitalizing on Viking mis-cues, jumped off to a 14 to 0 lead before Western settled downto play a steadier game. The Viks' goal line defense was very good in the first hall, holding the Pirates for three downs on the two yard line and then later holding them on a first-and-goal situation. Spurlock'spassing was the key factor in the second half. His arm accounted for one touchdown and set up the final one that gave the Pirates a 33 to 0 win. This was the final appearance for Jerry Beringer, Roland Siggs,Bill Johnson, Mike McVay and Lee Wolf and they all gave a big effort. Beringer solidified his claim onan all-conference berth. Siggs did the best job of harassing Spurlock, while McVay and Wolf bluntedWhitworth's inside ground attack. Johnson performed creditably until he was injured. One playerwho will return next year, Ron Ladines, also enhanced his bid for an all-conference ALL BALLED UPby Roger L. Myers As the football season comes to a climax, the natural tendency is to review theseason in terms of possible honors. For the Vikings, the conference championship is out. Individually,several Viks have chances at All-Conference berths. First of all, Ron Ladines should repeat the honorhe won last year. Ladines has been an offensive and defensive standout all year long. He is one of thefew men in the conference who plays both ways all the time. For this reason he has not been able to rack up as much yardage as last year, but he will be in there when the votes are counted. The picking of both an offensive and defensive team makes the choice of Jerry Beringer almost a certainty. Beringer isregarded around the conference as one of the toughest men to get around. Big and rugged, Beringercan move with the best oÂ£ them. He also has played much of the season on both offense and defense.Other Viks that stand a chance when the coaches submit their selections are Bob Plotts, offensive end;Roger Schmidt, defensive halfback; and Leroy Fuller, fullback. Tub-Thumper Deluxe One of the mostimportant cogs in the functioning of the athletic department is a red-haired sophomore who can't cover100 yards in less than a minute. This vital link has seen every football and basketball game in the lasttwo years while charting the results of the Viks. Jack Robertson is responsible for weekly pressreleases as well as the statistics you see each week in the Collegian. During the season he doeseverything from printing up programs to pumping up the game ball. Modest Jack claims he learned it allfrom his brother Bob, former Western student and now sports director of KTNT-TV in Tacoma. Regardlessof how he learned it, Western coaches and fans are glad he does the job he does. Basketball Play-OffsDuring the past two weeks the various NAIA member colleges in this area met to work out a new plan forsending this district's representative to Kansas City for the national tournament. Last year there weresome strong words passed back and forth because three western teams (Seattle Pacfiiic, PLU andWestern) had played off with one eastern team (Whitworth) for the trip to Kansas Ciyy. The colleges onthe other side, especially Eastern, felt they didn't get a fair chance. In order to correct this situation, twoproposals have been advanced: The first, favored by many of the Evergreen Conference schools, wouldhave a four team tournament between the 2nd, 3rd and 4th place finishers in the conference and thenumber one independent. The winner of this tournament would then meet the conference champion for the trip. The second or independent school proposal would make the tournament an eight team affair withthe top four in the conference playing the top four independents. One thing wrong with this is thenecessity of bringing the University of Alaska down to play in our district. Nothing has been decided,but either way someone will be unhappy with the results. Let's hope that the Viks make it, regardless ofthe methods of choosing the team. SHORT SPORTS: Jerry Beringer is called "The Bear," both for hisphysical appearance and as a short form of his name . . . Next fall should see the Viks playing on theCivic Field . . . With the new gym to be completed in March and the new scholarship money, Westernathletics are very definitely on the upgrade . . . Maybe this will convince those die-hards who claim that Dr. Jarrett is out to "get" the Athletic Department . . . No predictions this week . . . Our record last timewas a very sparkling 1 for 5. berth. The hard running junior led the Viks ground game and was all over the lield on defense. The spirit â€” a characteristic that was typical all season long â€” never let up. The fiveseniors will be missed, but Lounsberry has a solid group of kids returning next year. Western probablyhad the finest group of freshmen in the conference and in a couple of years this will become evident.At that time, this year's sweat, blood and tears will have paid off.

Last week the Collegian sent an editor to cover the faculty presentation, "My Philosophy of Life.' Not knowing the location of the meeting, the editor followed a large group of faculty members toRoom 115 of the A-M Building. He began to grow suspicious when only faculty members kept showingup. Nevertheless, he stuck it out until the meeting convened, and still not a student had arrived. Finallydiscovering that he had entered a closed meeting in the wrong building, the editor returned to report thathe had scored a first. Not only had a student broken boldly into a Faculty Council Meeting, but the grouphad voted 12-1 to throw him out. Next week the Collegian covers the Ladies' Garden Club.

Page 2 WESTERN WASHINGTONCOLLEGIAN October 30, 1959 ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1959 October 30 - Page 3 ---------- *Â£ttt0t lt; 'Impossible to Stay Awake' To be a student is my own choice; I was not forced to be one.The fact that I have chosen to be a student indicates my desire to learn and to studyâ€”but what have Ifound in college? My history course is boring. It is almost impossible for me to stay awake throughoutthe instructor's daily monologue, in spite of the fact that history is a field that fascinates me. A straightlecture course is not the way to teach eager students, no matter how interesting the professor may"be. We students want to read and discuss. We want to write and question and report; not just listen! Iam unhappy, too, with my physical science class. The teacher is excellentâ€”he is intelligent, likeableand stimulating, but I don't belong in his class; it is too far ahead of me. I have no background what-so-ever in math or science and though I spent hours pouring over my science text, I funked the first test. It is not that I am a poor studentâ€”this was the first test I ever failed in my life, but I don't belong in thisclass and provisions should be made for me and others like me. Admittedly there are many good things about this school; the new classification system is one of them. Because I have been placed in the 7-hgroup, the highest in English placement, I am able to take an English course which eliminates both the100 and 101 requirements. The course is strictly composition; there is none of the all too stagnantgrammatical review. Competition is on a high plane and, because the teacher expects a good deal ofhis class, we are galvanized to higher efforts. The physical education system is well set up and thefacilities seem adequate. My art class is a pleasant mixture of lecture, discussion and projects. Butthe many good points in this school do not compensate for the bad ones . . . An Unsatisfied student,JUDY BORMAN 'I Agree with DeWitt' I agree fully with Howard DeWitt's opinions, as I understand them.I fully believe that under no circumstances should there be a kow-towing of the press toward the athleticdepartment. I believe that all sports reporting should be done objectively and with little or no prejudice,even towards the home team. Last week's editorial proved my point in that there was such a roar andhubbub from the athletics department immediately after the Collegian was printed. Being a Freshman, Idon't know for sure, but I think that a person would have to be slightly mentally regressed to take such an attitude toward an objective report. I think that Mr. DeWitt's column spurred our team on to greaterhieghts during last week's game. In that we all know that it was a well-played game, there is just a faintpossibility that those few nicely-placed words provided the faintest prod or the smallest embryo of sparkto those who might have needed it. I'm not saying that they did need it, but it might have helped. Namewithheld by request. western Washington A Campos COLLEGIAN-CAMPUS AFFAIRS INAUGURATION 'An Intellectual Climate' Beginning with science and humanities seminars yesterday, WesternWashington College brought some of the top college people in these fields to the campus to set theatmosphere for the inauguration of Dr. James L. Jarrett, new President of the College. With the purposeof creating "a distinctive intellectual climate," J. Alan Ross (Professor of Education and Psychology) and Herbert C. Taylor (Associate Professor of Anthropology and Chairman, the F a c u l t y Council)brought three men to the campus to speak on humanities. Dr. Henry L. Adams, Associate Professor ofClassics at the University of Washington, Herbert J. Muller, Professor of English and Government atIndiana University and A. Earle Birney, Professor of English at the University of British Columbia,presented the series, "Hubris and the Greeks," "The Changing Face of Hubris," and "The New Face ofHubris." As the Collegian went to press yesterday it was predicted that the intellectual climate atWestern would probably have been hit by heavy heat. With a chance for more of the same today,students were welcomed, even persuaded, to hear the following: "Education 1975," an educationseminar directed by Dr. Ross, featuring Louis Bruna, Superintendent of Schools, Pullman,Washington, speaking on "Education 1975â€”The Public Schools." Western's own Dr. Paul Woodring, author of two nationally known books on the public schools, recently on leave to the Ford Foundation,"Education 1975â€”The American System." T. R. McConnell, Chairman, the Center for the Study ofHigher Education, University of California, "Education 1975â€”Higher Education." With that as themain event for the morning, the actual inauguration ceremonies of the President will be presided over byJoseph Pemberton, member of the WWCE Board of Trustees today at 2:30 p.m. in the MusicAuditorium. Dr. H. J. Muller will be the featured speaker. Tonight at 6:30 p.m. the ceremonies will windup at the Inaugural Banquet, presided over by Marshall Forrest, WWCE Trustee, where Dr. Jarrett willconclude the event with a speech, "Being with Meaning." Western had probably never been host to agroup of like minds from all over the country in one day. Setting the scene for the investiture of a newpresident, it might have been an indication of things to come. As Dr. Ross said, Monday, the idea wasto create a "distinctive intellectual climate." ASB PRESIDENCY Gustavson by 213 The Acting-Chairman of the Student Legislature was officially given the gavel by a vote of 426 to 213 over hisnearest opponent as Western students placed Bob Gustavson in the office of ASB President Tuesday.With 213 votes going to Hugh Moody, 114 to Donald Alder and 48 to "other candidates," the electionwas concluded and a finality of decision stamped on ASB actions for the year â€¢ as approximatelyone-third of the Western student body cast ballots in the, election. For the full story on the elections and the new president who finally got his title, see next week's edition. FACULTY SPEAKS A Left WingChristian By JACK RABOURN Sitting there, in the Conference Room, listening to a " 'left' wingChristian," I was struck by the play of emotions which were exhibited on the faces of those inattendance. Expressions changed rapidly as the speaker moved from sentence to sentence, as heswiftly moved from the toes of the non-believers, to the believers and on to the skeptical. The occasionwas the second in the series "The Faculty Speaks," sponsored by Western's USCF, which is nowfeaturing the series, "My Philosophy of Life." The second of the speakers in the series, Dr. WilliamBudd was presenting his philosophy to students who had taken time from their day to attend theinformal coffee hour. Dr. Budd began by reading a short paper he had prepared, entitled, "The Faith of an Optimist." "The Faith" Dr. Budd referred to in his title was his faith in the goodness of the existence of man and the sacredness of the individual personality. The speaker presented a philosophy which thislistener felt would well suit the world of today, with one exceptionâ€”people are not generally brightenough to understand and accept such a position, one that would truly require them to face themselvesand their world, and then to do something about it, rather than taking refuge in some mystical "otherworld," . sooth-sayers, or idols. Man is obligated, under Budd's philo- October 30, 1959 WESTERNWASHINGTON COLLEGIAN Page 3 ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1959 October 30 - Page 4 ---------- DR. WILLIAM BUDD SPEAKS TO STUDENTS 'â€¢â€¢'/ classify myself as a left-wing Christian . . .'sophy, to develop, .himself within the framework of society: he must not violate others, except inignorance, so he must operate within limits. Within these limits he must himself develop those traitswhich, are most "characteristically human!.;.,. reason, symbolism, and cultivated emotion." One ofthe main 'points of this philosophy is the sacredness of the individual. In regard'to this, Budd stated,"We, as fellow members of mankind, have no right to-destroy the integrity of another personality. Itmatters not whether this personality is that of the idiot, the psychotic, , or the enemy of the people. Wehave an obligation to all men simply by virtue of the fact that they are men. No one is better or worsethan anyone else, except as such judgements are made by individual men and the institutions theyrepresent." As a point of view this seems analogous to that propounded by many of our piousassociates, but as often not practiced by them-. ; While this opening was passing by, the listenerschanged from "I'll listen, but not believe" .ta "How can he talk like that?" and as Dr. Budd launched intohis next area, the looks were exchanged and amazement and horror were reflected, that anyoneshould actually say what he really believes, and in a public place. Dr. Budd's own words reflect hissentiments best: "Since in this meeting we are primarily concerned with religion, I would say that Iclassify myself as a left wing Christian. By this I mean that I am a member of the Christian Church byreason of culture and by choice but that my views probably do not reflect the sentiment of my own orany other Christian Church. "I conceive of religion as a form of symbolic representation analogous to allother such forms. The joy of religion is the same as the job of science, art, or literature, i.e., to givesome meaning to the world of reality. The difference is simply that in each of these endeavors, we carveout a special portion of reality for our particular concern. That portion of reality which lies within theprovince of religion I would call, along with Paul Tillich, the region of ultimate concern. . . . Viewed in thismanner, it is easy to distinguish between religion and religions. Religions are merely special modes of interpreting the world or answering the ultimate questions. They may or may not be embodied in suchan institution as the Church. "Since religion is a mode of symbolic representation, we find that it iscreative as well as interpretive. It is for this reason we find the anthropologist prefers to call the'mythology' of religions . . .Mythology would include the creation of gods and the special powersattributed to these gods. It would include also the legends which have arisen around the founders ofreligions insofar as these founders can be in-dentified." Budd went on to explain that the concept of godheld by any religion gives an insight of the development of that religion. Although the Christian god is theproduct of a long chain of evolution, the concept of god has not finished evolving: "Gods change as menchange and the evolution of the Christian god is to me the evidence of progress in the ideals andaspirations of mankind." The descriptions of god as a personal force or an old man in a flowing beard do not satisfy Budd. He conceives of god as the spirit of brotherhood or the bonds of community which heobserves among mankind. "I am not certain that this spirit exists but since I hold to the possibility of itsexistence, I call it God. But certainly to me God is not a person of whom I can ask favors." To explainwhy he considers himself a Christian, Budd stated, "I look on myself as a reformer of the Christianchurch albeit a non aggressive reformer. I believe that if Jesus were alive today, he would be shockedat most of the practices which are carried out in his name. It is a sad but true commentary on humanhistory that the works of genius are institutionalized and mortified by less perceptive men." Thosewho attended Thursday's meeting were provided with food for thought, even though many came withclosed minds, and left with even more tightly closed heads, or so it seemed to this writer.

Still chuckling at the antics of the assembly cast" this week, students adjourned toassigned meeting places and proceeded to nominate the following princess candidates for the maineventâ€”the selection of the Royal Court. Nominated were: Arlene Heinke, a senior from Aberdeen,majoring in education, is presently in final student teaching. Dimples and a pleasant smile make hera popular candidate among students. Tall and blond, Varian Keller is from Raymond, a transfer fromGrays Harbor College. Varian is active on campus and a member of Valkyrie. Peggy Owner, a seniorfrom Seattle, is a home economics major, has brown hair and light green eyes. She is active oncampus, and was selected queen of the Junior Prom last year. Perhaps the busiest candidate for queenis Nancy Parker, originally from Amboy, Washington, and a business education major. Nancy has served as ASB secretary, Junior Prom chairman, and Valkyrie and Kappa Delta Pi member. Arlene Richins, abiological science major from Newhalem, tall with dark brown hair, can be found working on all Valkyrieactivities, as president of the girls' organization.

Atclass meetings held last Friday, sixteen girls were selected to vie for the title of princesses of theirrespective classes. From the freshman class were nominated Alice Bates, a graduate of PortOrchard; Nita Brown, Yakima; Audrey Foster, Oak Harbor, and Donna Trautman, also Yakima.Sophomores chose as their four candidates Sylvia Aldrich of Tacoma; Sue Johnston, Seattle; SandraKeeting, Sequim; and Sue Wening of Bellevue. Mary Ann Bosnich of Seattle; Sally Fugitt, Longview;Lynn Ross, a transfer from Grays Harbor College and Marilyn Stedman were selected as nomineesfrom the junior class. Seniors selected to represent their class were Karen Brunstrom of Ho-quiam; GailCooper, Bainbridge Is- Ind; Mamie Nelson, Snohomish; and Barbara Tarn from Bellevue. Chosen to playfor the Queen's Ball is Jackie Souder's dance band of Seattle. "An extremely danceable band," wasthe comment made concerning Souder's band which was the official Sea Fair band this year and iscurrently playing at Parker's Hall in Seattle as well as being booked to play at the annual Sub-debball. "We feel that this is one of the better bands in the Northwest and with the money we save by nothiring a big name band we were able to expand homecoming events so that more students canbenefit," commented Homecoming co-chairman, D e n n is Fish, today. "Unusual talent" was thenoncom-mital term applied to those who tried out for Homecoming skits by Marshall Bronson, skit nightco-chairman. Nonetheless a total of nine skits and five individual acts will be presented along with"something new" in the staging line, namely a single set which will be varied by changes in curtains andan extensive use of lighting next week. With only seven days to go, Rome was busy this week.Homecoming '59 was on the road, at chariot speed. LEGISLATURE Buffaloes in the Monsoons By BOB STEVENSON {In the finest traditions of Voltaire and Douglas Welch's Seattle Park Board Reports,the Collegian sent columnist Bob Stevenson to report on a routine Legislature meeting. The reportfollows:) This writer made his weekly pilgrimage to the Legislature meeting, last week. Some of myprofessors would like to have me make a ritual of going to their classes, but going to class doesn't havethe color and pageantry of going to a legislature tussle. The impression of a solemn and majesticatmosphere not unlike that of a chess game played out in a do-or-die fashion of student confusion, issomehow weekly achieved.

There were approximately twenty people present towatch Western's student government go through its paces. At first glance, it looked like one of thelargest audiences they have had since last year's all time high of six hundred, but four of these peoplegave reports and six were members of the student press. The total audience amounted to ten students.Impressive isn't it? Union Board Chairman, Jack Rabourn gave the first report asking for additionalequipment for the upstairs offices. He was asked what had happened to the facilities from the oldlounge, and said that Ray Knabe, coop manager, was the last person to have charge of them. It wassuggested that the legislature hear from Mr. Knabe on the whereabouts of these old coffee cups andequipment. Dr. Murray made a motion that the new student offices use these old facilities. Dr. Murraystated, "We're not proud." Mr. Otten was accepted as caretaker of Lakewood for $10.00 per month. Helives near Lakewood and said he would like to look after the place for us. Mr. Glass was next to report toour esteemed boys in blue (and I don't mean the Air Force). He said our band will not be allowed to playfor Homecoming during halftime because Central is sending their entire band. It looks to this writeras if Central will get all the glory that day, but Our Band will be allowed to play for the bonfire and rally.This will be nice. Mr. Jerry Baker gave his treasurer's report. He reported on the organizations whichoverdrew their budgets last year, and the rise in enrollment which brought our legislative budget down toapproximately $3,000 in the red. Dr. Murray suggested that the organizations be contacted and asked to report on how and where they would make up their deficits. Mr. Simpson agreed that this would be agood idea because in this way it could probably be discovered how much each budget is padded. It was moved and seconded that every organization would report either in person or in writing on their deficits. A chorus of not more than five voices said "I" in a low tone and there was no opposition. Mr. Robertson, when asked for a report on the cost of the Collegian, said: "I will have a full report on the cost of theeight, twelve and sixteen page editions . . . next week." Mr. Lappenbusch stated in a letter to thisgoverning body, that he had made arrangement for a basketball tournament at Carrol College. Oneproblem remained, however. He needed money to send the team. He explained that the money will bepaid back when he gets his guarantees. He didn't name a date. Parking fees were brought up and onemember wanted to know if the parking sticker is needed at night. No one seemed to know. They decidedto look into this and into where the money that is left after the parking marshal is paid, goes. No oneseemed to have any comment on the 21st Street Parking Lot, where, it is rumored by more daringstudents, they have seen water buffaloes frisking about during the recent monsoons. SPORTSHOWARD DeWITTS By HOWARD DeWITT, Collegian Associate Editor Trying to jump into the wincolumn for the second straight week Western's football gladiators travel to Vancouver tomorrow to play the University of British Columbia. The Canadian squad is a former member of the Evergreen Conference and is presently playing an independent schedule. The Thunderbirds have been defeated only once this yearby Whitworth, 42-0. Their wins include a 23-18 decision over PLC as well as decisive wins over some ofCanada's strongest' college elevens. A hard charging line that averages 220 lbs. and a fast backfield ledby two pinpoint passers are the Thunderbirds' main reason for their fine showing this year. Manyobservers classify this year's UBC squad as the best in the school's history. Wetern will be strengthened by the return of Tom Davis and Fred West from the injury list. Davis had a bad knee and West a cyst ona rib. The rest of the squad is in good physical shape. The Vikings' main hope for stopping theThunderbirds is their terrific pass defense. The Viks held PLC to a mere 45 yards on passes last week;the Tacoma team had been averaging 135 yards a game. Commenting on the team's chances inVancouver Coach John Kulbitski stated, "If everyone is healthy we will have a 50-50 chance of beatingthem./ They are probably one of the toughest outfits we will play all year." In comparing scores oncommon opponents the game is rated as a tossup. The UBC squad will be playing before a stronglypartisan homecoming crowd and should play inspired football. However the Viking offense has finallybegun to jell and if the defense continues to hold they should eke out their second victory of theseasonâ€”WESTERN 14, UBC 13. * * * * * SPORTS SHORTS . . . Western's cross country squadtravels to Vancouver tomorrow to participate in a triangular meet with the Vancouver Olympic Club andthe University of British Columbia. Dale Warr, Dave Page and Don Trethe-wey will run the Senior four miledistance. Freshman Rich Crutchfield and Sophomore Bob Carter will run the Junior two and a half miledistance . . . Intramural basketball teams still have room for players on most of the 28 teams The leagueis divided into four divisions . . . Coach Jack Hubbard informed this writer that he had made no commentson a one-three-one offense. Tet this writer still feels a double post offense will be employed at leastpartially during the season. Page 6 FOOTBALL The Bells Were Ringing By JOHN GREER Flagswere flying, bells were ringing, people were dancing in the streets Saturday. Western had won a footballgame! It wasn't really that bad, but after having lost four straight the Viks were hardly expected to topplethe league leaders. However, due to the ground gaining of Sam Martin and Ron Ladines, and thetalented toe of Steve Hansen, the Norsemen downed first place Pacific Lutheran, 10-7. Coach JohnKulbitski's eleven took the opening kickoff and marched straight for a touchdown. Ladines carried thebrunt of the attack while Martin provided the big play with a 39-yard sweep. Len Gargarello carried it overfrom the four and Hansen added the PAT to give the Viks a 7-0 lead, which they held at the half. PLCcame back strong in the second half and roared to an early touch- WESTERN WASHINGTONCOLLEGIAN down with sophomore quarterback Doug McClary getting the score on a one-yard sneak.The score was set up by a 50-yard kickoff runback by Dave Reynolds. Dick Johnson knotted the scorewith his try for point effort. The Norsemen, after failing to capitalize on a blocked punt by Bill Burby,set the stage for the winning field goal with one of their three pass interceptions. With the Lutes deepin their own territory, McClary threw long down the right sideline and Viking halfback Jack Hallidayintercepted and ran it back to near the PLC 20. After three abortive plays, Hanson lifted his high soft kick which just skimmed over the crossbar for the three points. Ladines was again Western's top gainer with 64 yards in 15 carries while Martin picked up 61 in seven tries. The Viks failed to connect on any oftheir six aerial attempts but had three intercepted. Top gainers for PLC were Bruce Alexander with 102yards in 22 tries, and Dave Reynolds who collected 33 in five attempts. The Lutes threw 19 passes,completed six and had three intercepted.

DON'T MISS THE AWS INFORMAL TOMORROW NIGHT wwx VIKINGS MEET FORMIDABLE HUSKIES TONIGHT Vol. XLV —No. 10 Western Washington College of Education, Bellingham, Washington Friday, December 6, 1946 lobaxxs Wow . . . by hall dor karason "On the diffusion of education among the people rests the preservation and perpetuation of our free in* stilutions."—Daniel Webster. Educators have always believed, as Webster did, in the importance of education. Teachers are convinced that their profession is one of the noblest of all occupations. Because of this personal conviction, the teachers have, in the past, been willing to teach under difficult conditions for little pay. It has been a common proctice in the past to set teachers apart from ordinary people, and to judge teachers by a different set of moral standards than others. Perhaps because they believed on the work they were doing, the teachers did not object to those standards of conduct being set so high that a. normal life was almost impossible for them. Every moment of the day they were under the careful scrutiny of the community and whereas their neighbors might be able to smoke, dance, play cards, and even drink in moderation without fear of public criticism, the teachers had no such privileges. Such conditions, accompanied by the extremely low pay—often in the /930's, for example, not more than forty or fifty dollars a month— tested the teachers belief in the importance of their work. Perhaps the teachers, in their tendency to idealize the aims of education, have not thought enough^^bputjtoeir economic value to society.' On the other hand, society" has tended to classify teachers in a fairly low category because of their loir salaries. By way of illustration, here is a story I heard the other day. The names are fictitious but, aside from that, the account is true. It happened in the late 1920's. Mr. Jones had applied for a position as superintendent and had called on the chairman of the school board to discuss the matter with him. The chairman wasted no time in telling him that the position had been given to a Mr. Smith, whom Mr. Jones knew well. That ended the official phase of the discussion, but the chairman was in a loquacious mood and the conversation turned to schools and school problems. The chairman was a practical man. Dollars and cents were the measurement by which he judged most things, and that was the way he judged the schools. Mr. Jones was not entirely In agreement but saw no point in arguing too strongly. Finally, Mr. Smith's name was brought up. "Now there's a man I can't understand," the chairman said. "He is really a capable executive. Why, he could get any one of a number of good jobs in business organizations and name his own salary. I don't understand why a man like that stays in education. There's no money to be made in teaching, and there never will be." At that point Mr. Jones excused himself and left. There was, he judged, no common ground for discussion left between him and the chairman. The attitude of that chairman toward teachers was essentially, the same as that. expressed by George Bernard Shaw in his cynical comment: "Those who can, do; those who can't, teach." Such an attitude has been, unfortunately, the prevalent attitude of the public toward teachers; however, the public is beginning to change its mind. There is a serious shortage of teachers at present The. press and the radio are giving the problem much publicity and, for what is probably,the first time in our history, teachers and the teaching profession are being evaluated by the public on the basis of their real value in our society. Parents' organizations and civic groups are publicly recognizing the importance of having competent teachers, and the necessity of having an adequate number of teachers to educate their children. Those groups, particularly, know Mat .the educator is an individual with special training in a particular field and that his work is vital to the community. They know also that the educator is capable of doing other work as well as practicing his profession. They have seen teachers leave the schools in the last few years and take positions in business and industry. They have seen the teacher assume responsible positions, at good salaries, in business and industry. They have come to recognize the teacher as an individual who can "do" as well as "teach", but who would prefer to teach if the salaries were at all comparable with those in business and industry. While it is true that most teachers are idealists, it is equally true that even an idealist wants to have a family and a reasonably decent standard of living. The present salaries, generally, do not provide a standard of living comparable to the value of the teachersT work in our communities. The work of the teacher is, in turn, hampered by his economic situation. Since it seems to be true that an individual's value in our society is most often judged by the size of his salary, it would increase the prestige and, thereby, increase the general effectiveness of the teacher if he received a salary comparable to the salaries received in other professions, and in business, for the same degree of preparation and ability. Perhaps one of the most important results of an adequate salary adjustment for teachers would be the'charige it would make in the attitude of many capable young people toward the profession of education. It would give them an added incentive to choose teaching as their life work and make it worthwhile, from the economic point of view, to devote four or five or more years in, preparation for that work. It is one of the noblest of all professions, but unless teachers salaries are brought up to a reasonable minimum, it is unlikely that the profession will attract the best minds among our youth. It needs those young people and they could be of much use to the world as teachers—but it is not logical to expect them t» work for a bare subsistence.

Flight Course Adds Rating Rating of airplane t r a n s p o r t, pilot has been added to the list of Civil Aeronautics Administration ratings for which veterans may take flight courses under the GI Bill, Barry E. Hollander, advisor, VA Guidance Center, WWC, said today. Veterans will be permitted to enroll in the new course only if they have had enough flight training so they will actually qualify for the airline transport pilot rating after they have successfully completed the course. CAA requirements for such a pilot include 1200 .hours of solo flight during the last eight years, 100 hours of night flying, and 50 hours of cross-country flying.

Finishing off an eventful quarter of activities, the. ASM's sat down to ah informal initiation dinner Wednesday night in the YMCA. The long awaited pins were handed out to the members, and a program, prepared by Clarence Miller, provided entertainment. Thanksgiving vacation found the Y fairly empty, with most of the ASM's home for the turkey holiday. Sultan, Wash., seemed to be. the most popular destination point, that striving metropolis claiming Clarence Ness, Bob Neigemann, Dale McCarty, and Wally Bean. Sequim was second with Bill Tollin, Doug Roberson, and Alf (honeyboy) Courtey reporting there. The only holiday casualty was Charlie Rogers who returned with the "flu. V V SENIOR HALL Senior Hall again breaks the headlines with Phyllis Armstrong earning the badminton championship. Congrats, Phyl. Shirley teHennepe, everyone is anxious to know what F.V.A.. stands for. Donna Huling, what were you doing under the table Monday night—and eating your dessert there too? What's the matter, don't they own forks at Senior Hall? But congratulations on that lovely sparkler anyhow, Donna. Phyllis Baker, can't you find any better place to put your term paper than inside your pajamas? Really, people don't steal at night just to get term papers . . . or do they? Hey Bo—oops, not you—I'm calling our new mascot. He's a pup, about 3 weeks old. The name is spelled B.O. but pronounced "Beau" and its owner Eleanor Wilbanks is the only one in Senior Hall with a beau . . . heh, heh! V" V HOSPICE INN Hospice Inn is back to normal again after being rather deserted during the vacation. That it was good to get some of "mom's" cooking again seems to be the unanimous opinion in the house. Prank Iraola says he spent a very enjoyable vacation doing nothing but eating (he insists he gained five pounds), and Charles McRae holds the record for the longest vacation. He wasn't able to drag himself back until three minutes before his ten o'clock class on Monday morning. All good things must end, however. At least that's what Dean "Sidney" Greenstreet says. He doesn't get too lonesome between vacation though, because he get a letter from his grandmother nearly every day. (Well, he tells us they're from his grandmother.) It seems that the Hospice "B" bowling team isn't doing too well lately. We haven't been able to get our "hook" throws to work. (Right, Kenney Haller?) It's a good thing we have our 200 point man, Don Brown, to keep up in the tournament. Hospice not only has good bowlers in the house, but also the two best pinochle players. (Well, maybe not the best, but they do play pinochle.) These personalities are Harlan "Commando" Kelley and Vern "Landslide" Peter. Vern is a pretty good historian too, I am told. A short-short story: The weather was wonderful in Bellingham, so Jack "Ace" Francis and Jim Loring set out for a day of skiing on Mount Baker a couple of weeks ago. The weather was cold on Baker—the snow was wet on Baker. Jim Loring's little old car got stuck in the snow. No chains—no ropes. The result? Jack and Jim have almost given up skiing forever . . . at least until next time. V V DANIELS HALL Everyone is full of pepe and vitality again after Amber decided we were getting a little run down and decided to feed us again. The occasion was our annual Thanksgiving dinner. We had as our guests a group of girls from Senior Hall. I can now say that we know for a fact that this new house of the campus is inhabited by some of the most charming girls in the school. The dinner went off swell until the chair I was setting in decided to take a little rest, and I had to finish my chow on the deck. I'm not sure and I hate to make any false accusations, but I suspect some little Seniorite of doing a little carpenter work that night. SOUNDS FROM A TOPSIDE ROOM . . . Ted Holtzheimer is sure to cop a position on the All-Daniels Hall early morning noise making squad. About two or three in the morning is when he is at his best . . . We just call Mel Lingbloom "Horizontal" since we acquired that new davenport down at the house . . . The culprit that knocked over the ash tray in my room last week muster around and sweep down that portion of the room. Mel and I are getting tired of wading through cigarette butts to get to our sack . . . What are you going to say this week Cal? Cal says: Beets, diced beets, sugar beets, red beets, just beets, beets, beets, beets, beets. Don't tell me the old Champ ran out of words. V V HARBORVIEW Only 14 more days until Christmas vacation seems to be the prevailing spirit at Harborview in spite of a gala Thanksgiving. The question of the week seems to be—is it or its it not Colleen? . . . yes, we can verify the fact that it is Pierce beneath those newly cut bangs . . . a n d we are happy to state that her roomie McArthur has finally reach the point where she can enter their room without shrieking her astonishment . . . we admit that it was confusing to us at first too but once we got over the initial shock the members of the house decided bangs were most attractive on Pierce. wVr ww \z Established 1899 Published every Friday, except the month of September by the Associated Students, Western Washington College of Education, Bellingham, Washington Entered at the Postoffice at Bellingham, Washington, as second class matter by virtue of the Act of March 8,1879 Printed by Cox Brothers, Printers, Bellingham, Washington Subscription rate, by mail, $1.50 per year, in advance ^jE^» Advertising rates on application Vol. XLV. — No. 10 Friday, December 6, 1946 MONTY JONES WARREN BEECROFT EDITORS-IN-CHIEF Dolly McArthur, Verne Matthews.......

Publications Adviser Couple Uflited In October Any Masterpieces? —Cut Courtesy Bellingham Herald Mr. and Mrs". Kenneth B. Graham (Donna Coray) are seen here just after their marriage, which was an attractive event of late October in the St. James Presbyterian church with the Rev. John King Mitchell officiating. Mrs. Graham is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. William J. Coray, and her husband is the son of Mr. and Mrs. R. L. Graham, all of this city. WWCStudent Takes Vows James Victor Clarkson and Esther Lorraine Desmul were united in marriage Saturday evening, November 23, in a formal floral wedding held as the main feature of the Bellingham Floral Company's opening. The bride, who is the daughter of Gottleib Kammerer of Bellingham, wore a white satin and net gown and carried orchids and gardenias. The bouquets and floral setting were created by the designer of the floral company. The groom's parents are Mr. and Mrs. James Clarkson. also of Bellingham. He is an ex-GI and a student of WWC, majoring in physical education. Mrs. Barbara Kincaid was matron of honor and bridesmaids were Miss Elsie Kammerer and Miss Edna Tiede. Richard Joachim acted as best man, and ushers were Arnold Para-dis and Howard Huntley. The Rev. Meinhardt A. P. Keller of St. John's Lutheran church, performed the ceremony. The couple spent their honey-mon in Canada, and will reside in Bellingham. .WWC Student Stewardess Beth Teichroew, formerly a resident of Bellingham and a recent graduate of WWC, was one of the crew members aboard the United Air Lines plane which made an emergency landing recently in Litchfield, California. The plane was on a routine flight from Seattle to Portland, but due to foul weather at the Oregon city and the radio being out of commission, the pilot flew until a field was located. The plane's gas tanks had enough fuel for only a few minutes more of flying which made Litchfield a lucky stop. Miss Teichroew entered WWC in 1938, graduated with a three-year diploma, and then taught school for a while before returning to finish her final year. She began working for the United Air Lines last December, and now enjoys her stewardess job on the Seattle-Los Angeles run. ALL ROADS LEAD TO . . . 119 W.

The hangman on his holiday Sat by the side of the sea. The sea beckoned to Him as it thundered Below, • And he heard the wail of Lost souls. He arose and he was a Lone figure on the Pinnacle Of the cliff He looked down at the sea And saw: A soft warm neck with Blue veins pulsing; A blood blecked lip; ." . T h e m a n w i t h ; head akimbo;; ^The,lropeicutting ni ithroat In welts of red and his Convulsive jerks shaking the Tree. The waves looked up at The hangman and drew Him to their depths of Madness. He swayed outward and his Black form slipped silently Off. He swung by his neck from The protruding root. A seagull cried and the storm closed in and Claimed the Corpse. Pullman Scene of Conference; Johnson-Blekkink Attend Plans for a coordinated college day program in the.high schools were formulated in a recent meeting at Pullman, when a Constitution was drawn up. Two women were sent from each of the nine colleges of Washington state. Miss Donelda Johnson and Miss Zelma Blekkink represented WWC. The main purpose of the organization is to meet with the high school girls to give them absolutely unbiased information concerning college life. "Home away from home" arid life with other girls is of vital importance to the entering student, and clearer pictures can be drawn after conferences with qualified college representatives. "It is hoped," said Miss Johnson, "that the men of the colleges will soon get behind the plan also, as it is heartily endorsed by all higher education groups and faculty members." At present the group is state wide in scope, but the popularity and enthusiastic responses it has claimed may soon bring it into national view. Next year the group will meet at the U. of W., and the following year at WWC. This school will be the first of the smaller schools to sponsor the group , and there is much left to be done." In conclusion Miss Johnson stressed the fact that there are lots of ---------- WWCollegian - 1946 December 6 - Page 3 ---------- Friday, December; 6, 1946 Western Washington College of Education, Bellingham, Washington Hilltob fyolts Palade... by lillibridge and jackson POETRY DEPARTMENT . . . Hec Edmundson is chewing1 gum When ever the score is tight, He'll chew a million sticks or more On the hill-top Friday night. Both teams play fire wagon ball— But if they go too fast, What's left upon the floor will be Two grease spots at half mast. * * HUSKY VERSUS VIKING . . . It's that time of the year again. The Huskies and the Vikings are getting together for an evening of rough and tough yet smooth enough basketball on this evening's dribble menu . . This year, oddly enough, the two teams will play more or less the same type of hard driving, fast breaking ball. Coach Bill McDonald of the Vikings assimilated plenty of his basketball lore under Hec Edmundson at Seattle, and this game should be a more than interesting one from the standpoint of pupil versus teacher, and whether or not both teams will try to speed the other from the maple boards . . . the Vikings brand of strategy as always will- be pointing for this game, a win over the Husky isn't impossible, even though improbable. HUSKIES RATED HIGH . . . Interesting enough, the Husky starting line-up for this evening's engagement is entirely different from the one which started last year against the Vikings. Nichols, at center hits 6 feet 6, and with plenty of lanky mates to back him up. Uncle Heck has a good word for the Nichols lad, thinking he will take his place with the best of them at the pivot post, before the year is over. There have been some mighty nice centers around these parts too. Our hill top gym should be packed to capacity for this game. Who knows but what fans may be viewing the Winco conference and the Northern Division champs on one and the same evening? Observers say Hec Edmundson's Bill Taylor is even faster than when he was burning up the boards a couple of seasons ago. Some of Hec's old stars have returned to school, and it does look from here as though the UW will have to be reckoned with when basketball title hopes are counted and weighted this, season. HITHER AND YON . . . UBC is having plenty of win trouble in contests with the big teams they trampled so gloriously last year. Since meeting the Viks, who narrowly missed thumping them, the Canadian boys have obsorbed some old fashioned thrashings. Rumblings from Central are becoming decidedly more ominious. Those potential champs have notched a much deserved win over the big boys from the U. of Montana. Central and Eastern are decidedly the favorites on the basis of pre-season game dope. They, will have to be content as underdogs with the dark horse element creeping in. Perhaps that's the role that will get results for them. Anyhow Bill McDonald will have the Viks in there pitching all the time. His boys are improving steadily, and when the right combination begins to click, there will be trouble ahead for all opponents. WHAT'S DOING . . . In a hard conflict taking place on Monday evening at the Whatcom Junior high school, the high flying super-varsity put on a fine show to down the VFW five by a score of 55 to 38. High point man for this tussle was Walt Clayton with 12 markers . . . by the way, tomorrow night's encounter with the UW is sponsored by the American Veterans Committee of Bellingham. Next game for the Vikings is with the speedy, high scoring Alpine Dairy of Seattle, to be played on the hill top court. This outfit is composed mainly of former Husky stars . . . First conference game on tap, is with PLC, in Bellingham on the night of January 11 . . . Football casualties are still returning to school. Les Winters is the latest to return. Glad to see you back Les. • • This week we would like to introduce to you. so you may know them better and enjoy the games that much more, the remainder of our basketball squad. First we have that well known Danieleer Les Wilson from Seattle, Washington. Les is an ex-swabbie and plays forward on the team. He is 20 years old and a good sized boy standing 6 ft. 3 in. and weighing 190 lbs. Next we have Edward "Widge" Black, who is one of the best passers on the squad. Widge is from Port Townsend, and a veteran of 3 years, 3 months, 3 hours, and 33 minutes in the Navy. He is 25 years old, stands 5 ft., 11 in. tall and weighs 170 lbs. Another good passer is Ronald "Andy" Anderson from Sumner, Wash. Andy is a veteran of the Army Air Corp, is 20 years old, weighs 165 lbs., and is 5 ft., 9 in. tall. Also hailing from Sumner is Larry Slovek, 19 year old veteran of the Navy Air Force. He weighs 180 lbs., and is 6 ft., 1 in. tall. A three year veteran of the Army Air Corps is our last, but not least, man to be introduced. He is Ray Borden who hangs his hat in Montesano, Wash., when he is not going to school. Ray is a little over 6 foot tall and weighs 170 lbs.. All these boys are freshmen and a great deal should be seen and heard of them before they graduate from the home of the Blue and White. Western Places Peterson, Mythical Eleven Named The champion Central Washington College of Ellensburg placed three players on the first team in the annual all-Winko league football squad selected by coaches of the conference,, it was announced today.

At the last meeting of Blue Barnacles, Shirley ---------- WWCollegian - 1946 December 6 - Page 4 ---------- UlaCS facts . . . from dolly Well, did you all have a gay time over Thanksgiving vacation? I was rather surprised to see everyone in such good condition last Monday. Of course, I suppose there were a few who had those old Monday morning blues. I hear skiing at Mt. Baker was quite the thing over vacation. Among those who spent their vacation time in the snowbanks were: Ed McCullough, Bob Burns, Jim Bolster, Dan Walker, Bob Lee, Bud Erickson, Dick (Mahoney) McMahon, Irene Chetwood, Jack Lind, June Penn, Jack Xitco, Dick Verrill, and C. I. Pitch. It seems Corky Brubaker should learn his anatomy of the human body a little better after the boner he made at Harbor-view Hall. And I hear BiU Radcliffe is kept pretty busy on Saturday nights. How about that W. and Q. (nickname). There are certain boys around here who have a mania for speeding. You must be getting used to those $25 gifts to the police court, Chuck Genther? And who was using your car windows for a punching bag. Things were pretty complicated Saturday night, dates are pretty hard to find at eight o'clock in the evening, for a party. Bob Sweeney knows! A new club popped up at Edens Hall. It's called the Donkey Club. Initiations have been rather rough according to Janet Sieg-rist, Bev Goodwin, Gloria Woodward, Jo Elwell, and Jo Anne Jude. Pat Waterman, Roma Still, Mamie Doherty, and Jennine Guy are charter members. Edens Hall has been having quite a good time with fires. They have brought the fire engines up the hill twice in the past two weeks. Although Tuesday night it was just a false alarm, someone pushed the wrong button. Was Pedie Hyatt's face red! Well, now that we have those closed weeks and exams are coining up, I know you will all be buckling down to those books. It's about time for some of us to be putting their brains to work. But remember, buddies, keep your little noses clean. Points From Forgotten Pages ONE PURPOSIVE PACE . . . . Buckingham Palace guards do the "slow march" . . . a custom dating back to Charles II, who used this test to decide whether or not all the guards were sober. ENIGMATIC ENUNCIATION . . . Demothenes, the great orator, practiced with pebbles in his mouth. Would you say . . . it was Rapunzel who escaped the tower prison by cutting off her long hair and using it, as a rope? LYRICS FROM LEGAL LIMBS . . . The man who wrote our national anthem, Francis Scott Key, was a lawyer. Sketches From the Screen Danny Kaye is in exceptional form when he acts with Virginia Mayo in "Kid from Brooklyn" this week at the Avalon. His comedy dancing and singing is of the best and something you'll want to see. Mona Freeman and Richard Denning are on the same bill in "Black Beauty". Under the expert direction of Henry King, Twentieth Century Fox proudly presents "Margie" another comedy at the Mount Baker over the week-end. An added attraction of thrills, suspense, and romance is "North of the Border" starring Russell Hayden and Inex Cooper. If you aren't already a Robert Young, Frank Morgan, or Barbara Hale fan, you'll become one after seeing them in "Lady Luck" at the American. At the same showing Erick Portman and Flora Robsen bring you "Great Day". This is a love story of a women who was in love with one man and married another. The Grand has a good selection of films on its list, too. The first feature is "The Killer" with Edmond O'Brien and Eva Gardner and the second, "Little Miss Big" with Beverly Simmons playing the lead. oditotiali Members of the staff of the WWCollegian and Klipsun extend a most hearty welcome to all fellow journalists attending the press conference. Today and tomorrow will be memorable days as editors and representatives of six Washington college publication staffs meet to discuss problems and ideas concerning the possible betterment of newspapers and yearbooks. The staff of the WWCollegian hopes to see a definite system of news exchange between schools in the Winco league and CPS evolve out of this conference. We also hope this conference will be the beginning on an annual meeting of the publication staffs of the colleges present at this years conference. NEA Creates Interest With Teachers Bill of Rights Broadminded planning and cooperation are necessary tc solve present day educational problems. Recent data concerning available" persons qualified for" teaching shows a shortage trend which is not expected to be solved within a decade. If the U. S. is to continue rapid advancement this problem must be given attention immediately. The first step necessary seems to be—satisfaction for those people now teaching or able to teach. The second step is to inspire enough interest in the younger generation to insure an adequate number of teachers. Thus, a field of competition is created, as in any other profession or trade. The result is better teaching, more people educated to a level necessary to live in this modern world, and a group of contented people doing the job of teaching. Perhaps the most effective means of expressing the feeling of teachers'wishes is contained in 'the "Bill of Rights for Teachers" published in the NEA Journal of November 10-16. A summary of this bill is as follows: 1. The right to teach classes that are not too large— in general from ten to 20 pupils. 2. The right to have time in the school day for planning. 3. The right of a 45-hour week. 4. The right to an adequate amount of helpful and constructive supervision. 5. The right to adequate compensation for the full year of 52 weeks. 6. The right, to have good materials and enough of them. 7. The right to work in a room that, with the help of the students,'can be made pleasant and appropriate to the task to be learned. 8. The right to the same personal liberties which other respectable citizens assume for themselves as a matter of course. 9. The right to an internship. 10. The right to a realistic program of in service education. 11. The right to participate in modifying the curriculum and methods and in formulating school policies. 12. The right to keep from being lost in the profession. If is obvious nothing out of the way is being asked by these •people. An intelligent populace will support any effort to advance teaching conditions;, not solely to help the teachers; not for their own selfish interest, but to benefit-the future of the country in which they live and put faith. Homo Sapien Goes Shopping; Prodigal Canine Thankful There is nothing- that quite convinces a dog how lucky he is to be a member of the canine species instead of the homo sapiens, as when he • views the raids on downtown shopping districts by the hordes of Christmas shoppers. The sidewalks over runneth with characters and "characteresses", all in hot pursuit of that monstrous cravat for dear old Uncle Joe, which in due time will be uncovered in the back yard by the nosey neighbors cat. More cats go crazy that way. And old adage states, "It's not what you give but the spirit in which it is given that counts," possibly it is this spirit—liquid s t y l e - that accounts for many of the gifts being selected. Mental institutions are reaping a profitable reward for the devious way they connive to fill the American stores with a "little something for Uncle Joe". Little Junior will no longer be satisfied with a teddy bear that merely growls, but it is acceptable only if it has a vocabulary that would melt the collar off the family clergyman. Little Linda wants a doll that not only goo-goos, but can cut loose with a ribald version of "Oh Johnny, Oh" while hoisting her dress to the garter line and blowing smoke rings simultaneously. Sis is sure that she is to be the proud possessor of a fine mink coat, but when she observes it on the neighbor girl after Christmas, "Will you look at the skunk on that cat". Pop just growls when he opens his "What no burbon?" and disappears —to get something—to get » into something more comfortable. Here puppy, here nice puppy. Now you little devil you are going to get skinned alive. You take my place these next few weeks and I'll takes yours. £.ettiHG Oil ^team Dear Editor: Sometime ago you asked for contributions for the paper in the section known as Letting Off Steam. A group of us were discussing the possibilities of our giving something along that line and we thought perhaps we would let off some steam on an old gripe of ours. So here it is: The war is over on the battlefields but the battle of the sexes goes on. During the war social bars were lowered and there were more tolo activities than boy-ask-girl because of the shifting of the local man power, but now the situation is not moving, and neither are the date wheels. What is the matter with the man of today? Is he losing his courage, his fighting spirit, his chivalrous nature that it should be necessary for the girls to over play their part to get a date to a measly dance on the campus. M. J., B. G., L.

Will House 100 Students; Completion Slated for '55Construction of a proposed $400,- 000 addition to Edens hall is definitely in the works, according tonews from Dr. Haggard, WWC president. Dr. Haggard's announcement came soon after the FederalHousing and Home Finance Agency's approval of a $370,000 loan to the college to erect thebuilding. The loan will be repaid over a 38 year period from dormitory revenues. "I believe this is but thefirst of such self-liquidating housing projects on the WWC campus," Dr. Haggard said. "An enrollmentof 2,000 students has been scientifically predicted for the college by 1961. Even more housing will benecessary in the next seven years to accommodate the anticipated rise in college population." Theaddition will provide modern housing for 100 additional women students, nearly doubling" the capacityof the existing structure. Jones and Bindon, Seattle architects, are at work on plans for the addition.Occupancy is scheduled for September 1955. The increase in on-campus facilities for womenstudents will not affect the necessity for off-campus residences, due to the projected populationincrease.

VikingCinemalog "All About Eve" with Anne Baxter George Sanders SATURDAY, 8 p. m. ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1954 May 7 - Page 2 ---------- Happy Harry Retaliates In last week's paper J. Simon wrote an editorial headed, "Happy Harry Won't Like This.7' He was wrong. I like it fine, because it is a fine example of the type of trash that appears in this rotten paper. Simon brags about being a clean-cut all-American kiddie. I am sure he is all three, butmostly kiddie. Who wants to be clean-cut? Let's live a little, or even a lot. By the'time we get to collegewe should no longer be kiddies, although most of the Collegian staff acts the part. Mr. Simon.claims that the Collegian and the BOC are forming a coalition to protect their peaceful REIGN on the campus ofWWC. May I remind Mr Simon and any other member of his coalition that their job is to SERVE and notto reign. All the clean-cut kiddies had better unite because I am sure there number is very small whencompared'to the rest of us. You may wonder why I am using this filthy scandal sheet to bring mymessage to you. We are not.yet ready to print our own paper yet, but it will be out soon. Then you willhave a good paper to read. Our motto-BE REVOLTING. Signed: Harry the Hobo 'Clean-Cut" KiddiesUpheld It has come to our attention that a certain faction on campus is opposed to the Collegian, theBoard of Control and the clean-cut ali-American kiddies. They are also opposed to all the good theaforesaid organizations do for the student body. Charges were laid against the Collegian.and the BOC forforming a coalition to protect the many from the few. In our editorial of last week we used the word"reign." The minority group on campus objected to the use of this word. It was their stand thatorganizations on campus should "serve" and not "reign." We must remind this upstart minority that "toreign is but to serve." ... An attack was made in particular on the clean-cut all-American kiddies. In orderthat this minority may the better understand the organization we will explain the meaning of ourorganizational name. To be a clean-cut all-American kiddie one must have the wisdom of maturity andthe spirit and fire of youth. One must believe in the leadership of the democratic way of life and the fruitsthat may be gained from it. One must be clean-shaven and collegiate in manner. We may be calledantidisestablishmentarianists. To rid the campus of suchra detrimental minority, this shall be our creed,"College for Collegiates." 'Major Barbara' Presented Here "The way of life lies through a factory ofdeath." One could well say that herein lies the tale of "Major Barbara" as presented by the UBC Playerslast Wednesday night. " As in his play "Arms and the Man," Shaw turned his acid pen of sarcasmagainst man's greatest folly, war. As he looked at war from the professional soldier's attitude in"Arms and the Man," he looked at war through the eyes of. a munitions manufacturer in this play. TheSalvation Army was pitted against a workers' paradise created by generations of Undershaft munition.manufacturers." When the need of money by the Army forces them to accept money from the sale ofdeath machines, Barbara becomes embittered. Shaw levels his wit at Englishmen, politicians andreligious morality. Even Dionysus has to bow to the call of the cannon. Performances by JohnWhittaker, Bob Woodward, Eve Newitt and Roger Mossop stole the show but they were ably supportedby the remainder of the cast. The action and dialogue were fast and t he players got the most meaningout of the witty, sarcastic lines of G. B. Shaw. My admiration of Shaw was not lessened by histreatment given him by the UBC Players. If anything, my appreciation of his wit and sarcastic humorwere heightened by this performance. It was thoroughly delightful evening. Campi Pa Obit: usScene sses Away "The Campus Scene" died Monday, May 3, 1954 from its own poisons. The "Scene"had been an active inquirer into the functions of student affairs at WWC and into the follies and foibles of the ASB members. It concerned itself with preserving' the democratic principle but many timeswandered far from the path outlined by those very principles. Surviving: relatives are Robert Dunlap,author; David Gay, editor; and Carol Jensen, copy reader. Also surviving' are the Jukebox, theValkyries, the BOC and Henry Howe. Interment will take place in the lounge fountain Sunday, May 9,1954. The Campus Scene was 108 days old. Please omit flowers. So You Want to Flunk, Huh? HereAre Fifteen Hints Following are 15 easy ways in which to fail a course, as written for the Oregon StateDaily Barometer: 1. Enter the course as late as possible. By changing your mind about the curriculum after school starts, you should be able to avoid classes until the second or third week. 8. Do not bother with a textbook. 3. Put your social life ahead of everything else. If necessary cultivate a fewfriendships in the class. Interesting conversation should be able to drown out the noise of the lecture. 4.Observe how seedy most professors look, and treat them accordingly. 5. Make yourself comfortablewhen you study. If possible, draw up an easy chair by a window. 6.

If you must study, try to lump it all together and get it over with. The mostsuitable time would be the last week of school. 8. Keep your study table interesting. Placephotographs, magazines, goldfish bowls, games and other recreational devices all around you whilestudying. 9. Use mnemonic devices on everything you earn. Since they are easy to forget, this approach prevents your mind from getting cluttered up with stale facts. 10. Never interrupt your reading bychecking on what you h a ve learned. Recitation is not very pleasant anyhow, since it shows up yourdeficiencies. 11. Avoid bothering with notebooks. If you plan to use one anyhow, so that you candraw pictures of airplanes during the lecture, try to follow the simplest arrangement: keep all the notesfor a given day on the same sheet of paper. 12. Remind yourself frequently how dull the course is. Neverlose, sight of the fact that you really wanted to sign for something else. 13. Review only the night before examination, and confine this to trying to guess what the teacher will ask. 14. Find out exactly whenyour final examination will be over so you can plan to forget everything about the course at that moment. 15. Stay up all night before important examinations. /0e*6dd t6e ^omd . * * Special meeting of theBoard of Control was held last Monday to take care of business they could not get to last Wednesday.Mr. Louis Earle came before the board and reported that the fountain had lost $237.13 this last fiscalyear.

Lakewood Ready for Picnics By DOUG KAZENStudent Facilities Committee Chairman There will be no grand opening or pompous celebration, but wehope that there will be an enthusiastic turnout of students to Lakewood property this spring. We thinkthat this secluded spot on the south shore of Lake Whatcom now merits your attention. I wish I couldannounce the completion of a comprehensive renovation project or the achievement of a "new look,"but I cannot. In fact, I can't announce the completion of anything. The expenditure of almost $2600 ofstudent money has, however, resulted in very noteworthy improvement. In the past-year and a halfmuch of the grounds area has been cleared, the cabin re-roofed, the raft redecked, and an assortment of other improvements have taken shape. Installation of diving boards and the construction of new picnictables are next, to be followed by installation of new lights, both in the cabin and on the grounds. Someof these things perhaps will not be done by the end of the present quarter, but all are planned and money is available for their realization. We are working toward the time when the facilities at Lakewood will beof such scope and caliber as to be the site for Campus Day. For the present it is ideal for picnics of rela-itvely small groups during daylight hours. Any student or campus group may obtain, from me, a key tothe cabin and access to the new boats at any time, provided no previous conflicting "reservations have been made, you plan to use Lakewood, it is wise to make your reservation early. This Saturday isalready a closed date, with a club picnic tomorrow. Lakewood is administered and controlled entirelyby the Student Facilities committee. Our liberty out there needs not only to be appreciated, but tobe used with discretion, so while we urge your use of the property, we deplore its misuse. It should beremembered that Lake-wood is regarded as college property and campus policies prevail thereon.SUNBATHING TIME ARRIVESâ€”Campus Co-eds Lucy Schell (left) and Kay MacKenzie, bask in sun onthe porch of the Lakewood cabin on Lake Whatcom.

Woodring, professor of psychology atWestern, will attend a faculty study meeting at Carleton College, Northfield, Minnesota. ProfessorWoodring, author of the recent book, "Let's Talk Sense About Our Schools," will lead a series of weeklyseminar meetings involving representatives from all divisions of the Carleton faculty. Carleton Collegehas been awarded a grant of $10,800 from the Fund for the Advancement of Education to cover thecost of a faculty study to determine the best possible program for the education of secondaryschool teachers in a small college of liberal arts. Woodring's close association with the project isexpected to be particularly valuable in that he can assist the group to compare programs of teachereducation in liberal arts colleges with those that have been developed by teachers colleges. TheCarleton project is designed to analyze the issues in teacher education and to recommend the bestpossible program for a college such as Carleton. In the course of the study, faculty members will visithigh schools of different sizes and to stimulate the faculty as a whole, in various localities in order to gain from personal observation an understanding of current needs and interests. The assistance of highschool teachers, principals and, superintendents will be sought as the Carleton faculty studies theproblems faced by both the teacher and the administrator. The Fund for the Advancement ofEducation is an independent organization established* by the Ford Foundation.

Students Look for Mammoth, Uncover Remains from Ice Age By MEL SCHELLMonday night saw a tired group of geology students returning to Western's campus after a 325 mile tripthrough the eastern half of Washington. The group, totaling 21 persons, left campus last Friday morningaboard one of Western's busses. Friday's trip included brief stops at Monroe, Stevens Pass, Waterville,Dry Falls and Sun Lakes State Park, where the group stopped for the night. TOUR GRAND COULEESaturday the budding geologists stopped at Roosevelt Lake and made a brief study of the rockformations in that area. They also toured Grand Coulee.dam. Sunday they visited Gingko PetrifiedForest before getting down to business at Sunnyside. At Sunnyside the group was guided to the farm ofMr. Phil Ruppert by the Sunnyside Superintendent of Schools, Kenneth Mal-lery. Mr. Ruppert's fieldwas located in a general area of flatland with several small lakes in the vicinity. A portion of tuskhad. been unearthed during plowing and the area was then left undisturbed awaiting furtherexploration.. At that time Dr. Sene Carlile and Dr. Maurice Freehill had been in Sunnyside working with a speech clinic. Through their help our geology department gained knowledge of the find. TUSKREMOVED Under the direction of Marie Pabst, science, the group began to excavate in the regionwhere the tusk had been struck. The remaining! five foot portion of the tusk was removed by Bill Ahoand Robert Johnsen while the rest of the crew turned up many portions of vertebrae, leg bone, pelvicbone and other miscellaneous parts. Sonre horse bones were also found in the area. Approximately 200 pounds of bone were removed and packed by the group. The tusk was left with the Sunnyside highschool while the rest of the remains were brought back to Western. TOOTHLESS Although no remnants of teeth were found, with which specific classification could be made, the animal was probably aColumbian mammoth which lived during the ice age and was trapped in a mud hole. Monday morningfound the West-ernites in the Rattlesnake Hills, where many specimens of petrified wood were obtained.A fast trip through the Hanford region to Yakima brought us to Yakima Sportsman State Park where we consumed a very welcome lunch while sprawled in the ever-present sun. "Old Reliable," the namegiven the bus by the geologists, surmounted its last major obstacle, Snoqual- Deficiency Slips OnMid-Terms On Their Way Soon Mid-term deficiency slips will be sent out the week of May 10,according to the registrar's office.

The falls have been diverted and a dry cliff is all that meets the eye. The remainingmiles home were covered while everyone tried to find his gear and numerous souvenirs among themassesd clutter in the bus. The bus unloaded, the group dispersed into the night; tired, dirty,possessing new knowledge, and memories of a good time. Those going on the trip were Bob Porter,Roger Linde, Alice Bennett, Bill Aho, Milt Clothier, Mary Oel-rich, Harris Kluksdahl, Ned Lawry, RobertJohnson Frances Jones, James Aldrich, Chester Burrous, Meech Houghton, Larry Lyle, Mel Schell,Russell Simonson, Eugeyfc Thramor, and Mervin Wingard.

After-that Tacoma trip it is mathematically impossible for the Vikings towin the championship. * We caught baseball coach Joe Martin in a local barbershop last Wednesdaywhile he was getting a hair cut. -Martin must have still been lamenting over the fortunes of his*- diamondnine. When I walked in he swung the barber chair around in a futile attempt to hide his identity. Thisresulted in the barber's; taking a clump of hair from his scalp which should never have been taken off atall. I cracked the ice with "What hap-, pened against PLC?" He relaxed, and said "We lost both gameson; errors." Then he added, "I can't understand it. I know we have the best squad in the league but wejust don't have it when we need it." The barber came in with "On paper you have the best team but onthe field you don't." Martin nodded and said, "The boys want to win but when they get out on the fieldthey don't take it seriously enough. Yesterday against PLC they all laughed at Hanson because hepitched so slow, but they didn't even get one run off of him in the five or six innings he pitched." Theinterview ended with "better luck next year." CONFLICT - It's a shame that the Vancouver relays arethis Saturday. Many students would like to make the trip up but at the same time they don't want tomiss the Blossom Time festivities and the parade on Saturday. Anyone who decides to make the tripwill have a long time forgetting the Vancouver relays. It is a prompt and spectacular meet with usually agood-sized crowd. With the Uni- ,versity of Oregon in the meet the competition will probably be verykeen. Western Tracksters To Defend Title This Saturday Coach Ray Ciszek's tracksters will travel toVancouver to defend their championship of the Vancouver Relays. This year's squad is rated as havingan inside chance of retaining their crown and the Viks have every intention of doing so. Fourteen teamshave entered in the meet so far, some of which Western has met and defeated earlier in the season.With a large number of teams entered in the meet it is expected the points will be scattered and thatrelatively few points could win the meet. With a certain amount of luck, the Vik's old standbys Whan,Swan, Swalwell, Kendrick, Smith and Okerlund may be able to retain Western's championship.

UW Baseball Team Takes Twin Header Last SaturdayWestern lost a double header to the University of Washington. The scores were 8-5 and 19-2. The firstgame went nine innings and the second one was called at the end of five. The Vikings played headsup ball-but they ran out of pitchers. In the first'game Galen Reimer pitched a good seven inning game but simply ran out of steam in the eighth. The Vikings tied the game at five-all in the seventh but couldn'tget any more runs after that. The Huskies scored three runs in the eighth to win this one. For Western Geprge Hanson had three for five and Jim Card had two for threeT including a triple. The second gamewas a pitcher's nightmare for the Vikings as Western sent five hurlers to the mound, none of whomwere regular pitchers. This combination gave up ten hits and thirteen walks. With this cooperation from the Viking's pitchers the Huskies scored nineteen runs.

In one of thebest games this season, the Goosers edged the Kegers 8-7. The lead changed hands two or three times before steady Spud Miller broke the hearts of the Kegers with his game-winning base hit in the last ofthe seventh. Technically this game should have been a tight pitcher's duel between Bert of the Kegersand Stone of the Goosers. However, after the first inning was over the score stood at 4-1 in favor of theGoosers. In the top of the first inning the Kegers scored the first run of the game when Lange walked,moved to second on an infield out, and scored on Kendick's single. Ken-drick's hit was so manhandledby the Goosers that Bill went all the way to third and Lange scored as McGlothern of the Goosersdropped the throw at the plate. The Goosers wasted little time in taking the lead. Denny Andersonwalked to open the last half of the first inning. Bob Stone and Larry Nordby followed Anderson with twoinfield singles. Stone reached first due to a mental error by the third baseman, and Nordby reached firston a questionable call by the umpire. With the bases loaded Floyd Lunsford blasted a low liner to leftcenter for a home'run. The second inning was scoreless but in the last of the third with two out peskyBob Petrosik drove out another home run for the Goosers. The left fielder charged the ball, but it rolledby him practically all the way to the Campus school. This blow put the Goosers ahead by thecomfortable mragin of 5 to 1. In the first half of the fourth inning the Kegers roared back with five runs.Larry Reed started the inning with a walk. Robinson then singled to right, Reed stopping at second. With Dick Stark at the plate both the runners moved up on a passed ball. Stark pickled one of Stone'sofferings for a triple, scoring Rood and Robnson. Bert then hit a grounder to the shortstop, whofumbled it and Stark scored with Bert stopping at first. The score now stood 5-4 in favor of the Goosers with no one out. With Bert riding on first, Westrick grounded into a quick double play via third base.Tom Tramms stepped to the plate and was hit twice before he finally was waved to first base.

Allsop, officer in charge of -the VeteransAdministration office at 203 West Holly street in the Clover building, Bellingham, said today. In fact,Allsop said, the Regional Office Loan Guaranty division has been flooded with requests for appraisal.The situation in Washington reflects the same condition that exists nationally. Two factors havedeveloped in the GI loan picture in the first three months of 1954, Mr. Alsop said: 1. An easing of GIloan mortgage money in this state; 2. Willingness of many lenders to make "no-down-payment" loans.Nationally, appraisal requests received by VA from builders and lenders during the first months of 1964 on proposed and existing dwelling units was 65 percent higher than for the same period of 1953.Poem You've got that far-away lookâ€” A million miles awayâ€” Tho' you may hold a school book, Yourmind goes far astray. You wake up from your dreaming, You know there's work to do; But you can't helpyour scheming, And books just make you blue. You try again to read it. Your mind won't function yet.You hope you'll never need it; The author seems "all wet." You close-your book and leave it Aside, uponthe table. You hardly can believe it, You're feeling so unstable. Then suddenly you know why You justcan't study much. You know, as all the days go by You're in Spring Fever's clutch. â€”Wil Knutsen.UBC Pubsrer Needs Glasses LOST!

"This heavy increase in business," said Allsop, "naturally has created a problem for the Regional Office loanguaranty staff, which currently is running several days behind in its work. "We are making every effortto stay as near current as possible," he said, "and we ask veterans who have inquiries about the statusof their loans not to telephone the Regional office, as such calls only delay processing of applications."To veterans who feel they have been waiting overly long for action on a GI loan, Mr. Allsop has threesuggestions: 1. Before addressing the VA, find out from your lender the date he sent on the loan papersto VA. 2. Allow 10 days for mail time, and processing by VA. 3. Then if you haven't heard, WRITE (donot phone) the Loan Guaranty Officer, VA Regional Office, Tower building, Seattle 1, Wash., giving allfacts about the loan, including your name and the name of the lender.

Holly Phase 647 INBELLINGHAM NEWBERRY'S EDENS HALL By ANN MEURER With .one social event down for themonth of May, Edens hall is preparing for the next major occasion. This is the Mother's weekendwhich is scheduled for May 15-16. Last Sunday saw the freshmen students poking and peering intoevery nook and cranny on the campus between Edens, the street and back side of the library. Inaccordance with the annual pansy breakfast, this was accompanied with threats of no food if all of the hidden posies were not found. All were foundâ€”in record time, too. if the fact is of any significance.Champion pansy hunter was Nanette Otness with a total of seven potted flowers. Closely following her was Dee Hewitt, champion high climber, for her unusual retrieve of a pansy planted at least some 15feet up in a tree. After the 20 minute chase, indecision lay between the strong motives of bed orfood. However, eating seems to be the first love of WWC girls. Special guests for the occasion wereDean Lorraine Powers and Miss Mira Booth. Tuesday nights seem, unofficially, to be shower nightsand we don't mean the kind that rain. This week it was in honor of Merydee Ness. Planning the evening's activity were Shirley Neble, Joanne Clark and Gwen Fairchild. After hectic and frantic arrangements,and rearrangements on the part of the honored guest, the affair was truly a surprise. An attractivecake, decorated by Darrell Fairchild, was presented to Merydee. SENIOR HALL Senior hall has beenbuzzing with preparations for the annual Mardi Gras. It will be a big event and we hope that our guestswill enjoy it. We have joined the other organizations in planning of a skit for Campus day.Bewareâ€”their girls are the greatest! (Bums, that is.)

HOSPICE INN By BOB DUVALL The winners of this year's Homecoming skits are scheming again at Hospice for the Campus Day program, and wehereby serve notice to watch the Hospice Hobos on May 26. The congratulations of the house are inorder for next year's sophomore class president. Good luck, Fred Lange. Speaking of Fredi he and his Olympia school mates, Robbie Bert and Bud Robinson, are helping the Kegers remain in secondplace in intramural softball. Bill Dickson finally scored this past weekend. A seven pound steel-head got tangled up in Bill's fishing tackle and Bill couldn't seem to shake it loose, so we were visited by thepoor little fish Sunday night. Out it went Monday morning, tho. We are not sure that we have notacquired two new members this quarter. The sunburn that Russ Hauber and Norm Blom are sport-, ingmake them look a little as they did Fall quarter.

Baker and is reached by hiking in about seven.miles from the road. A scenic view of the mountain can be seen through the trees. In the past, individual hikes have been scheduled from the cabin to Roosevelt glacier, which lies to the left of the cabin. Transportation is the greatest problem, according to Norbon Pel-ton, chairman of the outing. Plans are underway and will be announced at a later date. Retired Instructor Reminisces Past - • Formal dedication of the new elementary training school building Friday night recalled to Miss Catherine Montgomery, retired in- . structor, the opening of the first campus school of the college, then Bellingham normal, in September of 1900. In marked contrast to the new ultra-modern and well-equipped school, the Campus school of 1900 just bare walls and seats and no "hag no supplies, no furniture, money was provided for furnishings and equipment," Miss Montgomery reminisced in the Bellingham Herald. "Those of us who remember the old school and have inspected the new one, know what it meant to put it on a working basis," she said. Miss Montgomery was the primary instructor of the first training school. High School Seniors Board Topic • A new policy is being adopted by the State Board of Education which allows high school seniors to enter college before they have graduated. Seniors must have completed all but the Jast quarter of work, have a recommendation from the high school principal, be 17 years of age, be in the upper fourth of the class, and have his parents' permission i/o enter college. •I According.i, to Dr. Arthur Hicks, registrar; this policy may have some effect on enrollment, especially with those seniors who entered high school m: mid-year. Lu_. CAROLINE XANCtVALQ j • Queen Caroline Tangvald and . her princesses, Mary Jane Chis-holm, Marilyn Turner, and Helen Hansen, are presiding over the festivities of the Fraternal Council's Indoor Carinval. The royal party is making their headquarters at the Bellingham hotel for-the duration of the festival. The festivities began Tuesday evening with an outdoor drill team competition won by the Veterettes. Following the competition, an elaborate coronation ceremony was held with Mayor Arthur Howard corwn-ing the queen. The carnival, in the State street auditorium, is made up of booths and. concessions sponsored by fraternal organizations. The festival will continue until Saturday, midnight, with programs planned for each evening and a war bond drawing of $100 each night. Service Men Take College Courses • "Explaining its curriculum to meet these war time needs, WWC has endeavored to do its part in furthering the cause of victory, feeling that education is all important in the life of a fighting man," announced Mrs. May Love-gren of the Extension department recently. Correspondence courses are now being offered to men in the armed forces by WWC as well as by other colleges'and universities in the country. Colleges of the west participating in this program are University of Washington, University of Wyoming, University of Utah, Montana; State University, University ; gt;qf' -Colorado, and University of'California; ;;•-'•* j All enlisted men are eligible to enroll in these courses after being: in the service four months.

'And a Good Time Was Had by All' By PAT SCOTT. • "And a good time was had by all," describes the( annual Campus Day held at Lakewood last Wednesday, thanks to co-chairman, Wade Haggard and Ruth Krause, and the many people who helped to make the big day such a success. Pies Eaten Everyone seems to agree that the. highlight of the day was when Fred Knapton and Dr. Johnson put on the pie eating duo. It was disgusting the way the gentlemen conspired and graciously digested their pie at the slowest rate any pie eating contest has ever endured. But the climax of the ordeal came when two aggravated by-standers gently pushed the unsuspecting contestants' faces into their respective meringue cream pies. In the women's pie-eating contest Ike Ra-del and Ethel Martinson tied and the men's title was retained by Muniz, defending champion. Beards Judged Good sport Harold Hardman demurely accepted the honor bestowed on him by the beard growing judges —that of the vainest attempt at a beard. Bob Vossbecjk's was the longest, Henry Von Bargen's the reddest, Larry Munizza's the blackest and Renier Elenbaas- the fanciest. The nautical misses with "Bart" as coxswain were cheered as they came in first in the women's boat races. Everyone is still laughing when they think of dripping "Hag" as he emerged from the chilly brink, coxswain of the men's winning oarsmen, the Independents (incidentally; they' all are former Sea Scouts.) Gals Swim •: The" brave gals who went swimming admit; that the lake w^s'like ice but what vitality they didn't have whens they, came ,out!

Student Body prexy Ellen Van Wieringen announced that almost sixty per cent of the students voted in the election. Northwest Indians State Course • To discuss a state course of study on the history of Indians in the Northwest, Dr. Erna Gunther, head of the museum at the University of Washington and a committee on social studies met last Wednesday at the Campus Elementary school. Miss Priscilla Kinsman, third grade teacher of the Campus school, was among those present at the meeting. Miss Kinsman has done considerable research along with Dr. Gunther on Indian history. Miss Vivian Johnson, also of the Campus school served as chairman of the primary and intermediate grade discussion group. . . Others present at the meeting were: Miss Gwendolyn Shakespeare, Edmunds; Miss Helen Lo-reen, and Ted Muncaster of Sedro- Wooley; Mrs. Hazel Vedeni, third grade instructor of Bellingham Lar-rabee school; and Miss Lillian Hen-drickson, principal of Haddon at Bremerton; Lib Receives New Bibles • Miss Mabel Zoe Wilson of the library staff recently expressed her gratitude, in the name of the college, to J. E. McGregor, president of the Bellingham chapter of the Gideons, an international- religious organization. Upon the suggestion of Leonard Sperry, former WWC student now studying for the ministry, Mr. McGregor donated ten copies of the Bible to the college library. These Bibles were dedicated to the students in a service at the Champion Street Baptist church and were accepted in the name of WWC by Miss Catherine Myers, a member of the College Chrisian Fellowship. Miss Wilson remarked that the organization of the Gideons is known mainly for the placing of Bibles in hotel rooms, hospitals, public schools and other institutions. She went on to say that their works are financed by private contributions. "Very recently the Gideons decided that in wartime, copies should be placed in campus building also and they now include colleges among the institutions to receive their donations," was Miss Wilson's concluding statement.

That idea s not new. Veterans of 1916 got credit when they came back. But the way American colleges and universities go about it this time may be new and much better. At the end of the first World War, colleges lavished credit on students returning from service. It was "blanket credit" then. The amount depended only on time served under arms or rank at demobilization. Of course such "blanket credit" had nothing to do with educational achievement or competence. Indeed, colleges vied with each other in the amount of credit granted the returning heroes. To the veterans, however, this enthusiasm was hardly a boon. Many were assigned to academic levels beyond their reach and promptly flunked out. In other cases, there was no adequate recognition of increased competence. When peace comes this time, leading educators are determined, it's going to be different. Service men and women have at . least four broad educational opportunities while in uniform. There are hundreds of technician and officer candidate schools. Almost half of all enlisted personnel go to one or another. The Armed Forces Institute, cooperating with 79 colleges and universities, offers off-duty education by correspondence. Orientation courses and informal off-duty instruction in camp recreation programs likewise have marked educational value. The problem of educators is to appraise such educational experience objectively and to grant credit that does justice to educational standards and competence of the veteran. Machinery to do this has been blueprinted and approved by *• important institutions. The plan would work simply. On demobilization, a soldier, WAAC or / other service man or woman would apply to the Armed Forces Institute for examiantion and guidance. The Institute would obtain full information on-the person's record, then test him to measure his educati6nal competence and specialized achievements. Results would go to the college of his choice with recommendations for placing the student where he belongs. The idea isn't in operation yet, despite approval of many colleges, regional accrediting associations and the armed services. The spectre of chaotic "blanket credit" still haunts responsible educators. The suggested credit program can become effective only if and when colleges take individual and group action to make it effective. The American Council on Education is giving leadership to the drive to see that the program takes hold before it's too late. The Council is plugging for immediate action opposing "blanket credit" and approving the alternative program which was lacking in 1918. The issue is being faced on a small scale already, the Council points out. Casualty cases are being demobilized—in numbers now a military secret. Chances are many more such cases will be seeking readmission to colleges before long. * When general demobilization comes, the Council says, it will be too late to block another move for "blanket credit." The battle must be won on every campus now. Soukup, Shiers Visit Campus • Several former WWC students are visiting the campus this week. Clarence Soukup, editor of WWcol-legian during 1937 and 1938, looked over- the new publications offices. Clarence is a yeoman first class in the Navy. Frank Shires, former ASB president, now of the Uinted States Navy, was here to enjoy campus day activities. Others choosing WWC campus for old home week were Frank Holbrook, navy, and Pierre Dietsch, army. Guild Performers Present Plays • Last Thursday, Friday, and Saturday evenings, Theater Guild performers presented a series of four one-act plays. "A Wedding," produced by WWC students and directed by Victor H. Hoppe, starred Archie Anderson as the bridegroom and Clara Belle Sommerlad as the bride. Humor was lent to the wedding scene by the supporting cast of college players. Newcomers to the Guild stage presented "Oh Say Can You Sing," directed by Bill Biggerstaff. Beverly Clark and Jim Young played the leading roles in the comedy "Rehearsal." The novel plot of the play brought it out from the ordinary. The fourth play, a serious hill billy drama entitled, "Cornered" was produced by Guild newcomers He's The Best There fs / Invest iii WAR BONDS and STAMPS 'Snuffy'Smith This Week's Woman She's just five feet tall with brown hair, brown eyes, a charming smile and plenty of ambition. She is nineteen year old Cheryl Smith, member of Valkyrie, president of Alkisiah, treasurer of WRA, vice president of IRC and present chairman of the gradaution tea and ^fashion show. The training school and Bellingham High school are among Cheryl's alma mater. Her parents made their home in Bremerton after her graduation from high school in '41. Since that time Cheryl has been living at Edens hall. Ice cream is her Waterloo, she sighs with happiness when she hears "That Old Black Magic" and "Slightly Dangerous" is one of the best movies ever. Just ask Cheryl. The woman of the week loves to swim, play badminton, picnic, hike, and play the piano. Cheryl's pet dislikes are off-color combinations of clothes and gals that disturb her when she is sleeping peacefully by collapsing her bed. There is a rumor of a great deal of correspondence between a certain Marine at Parris Island, South Carolina, and Miss Smith—tell us all about it, Cheryl. Cheryl plans to work in the Navy yard this summer and return to school this fall. With the WRA ... BLUE BARNACLES: The Blue Barnacles club initiated two new members at their regular meeting last Monday night. Norma Bartlett and Ruth McGinnis were the two unhappy victims. TENNIS: A last call is being issued for people to sign up for the tennis, tournament on the bulletin board in the main hall. For those already signed up watch the bulletin board for time and schedule. BADMINTON: The stragglers, who have not finished the loser's part of the Badminton race are please asked to do so sometime next week. BASEBALL: Sorry to say, the girls were very badly beaten by the Hospice Inn team on Campus Day. Moral: girls should not play against boys because boys always cheat. ARCHERY: Friday from one to five the archery tournament will be held if the weather permits. gt;. OUTING Hikers going on the trip to Lost Lake Saturday are asked to meet in front of the PE building at 9:00. Coffee will be served but everyone is asked to bring her own lunch. Men and women both are eligible to attend. also. The setting was a back woods village and the play centers around a young man who is sentenced to be hanged for a crime he didn't commit. Humor is added by a hill billy friend who solves the crime. Ike latest flews H J. C. PENNEY CO. BELLINGHAM OFFICIAL College Pins and RINGS PAUL MUELLER JEWELER 1805 Cornwall Ave. from nouses Golfers Have Tourney The boys at Bennerstrom's are having their annual golf tournament' and to date Larry Munizza is leading with a 75. Following closely behind is Bob Miner with an' 83. At the yearly house meeting, Cale Gregg was elected president; Fred Strankman, vice president; and Larry Munizza, treasurer. Cider and doughnuts were served to all present. Letters were received recently from Les Smith, Ernie Linden, and Ed Muscutt, former houseboys who are now in the service. Lefty Runs Home Daniels' Hall roomies, Lefty LeBarron and Butch Faller traveled to Vancouver Friday night to play baseball with the Bells. Lefty did the hall proud when he got a home run with the bases loaded. Bob Miner, Larry Munizza, Fred Strankman, Bill Faller, and Floyd Le- Baron all journeyed home for Mothers' Day over the week-end. Oh the way back to Bellingham, the Puyallup boys who room at Bennerstrom's, stopped off to see the Seattle Rainiers play. (They had box seats!) in the right field bleachers. A Mothers' pay visitor at Daniels was Erman Holtzheimer '38, former coach at Custer. Amber Daniels received a card from Bill Murphy who is stationed with the Marines at San Diego. Darrah Dons Daring Apparel As a Mothers' Day gesture, Clara Sommerlad had her mother, Mrs. T. Sommerlad, with her for the week-end at Harborview. We don't blame the gals for knocking on the walls Sunday night. When Ford and Anderson start exercising their vocal chords something must be done. The latest thing in boudoir apparel is being modeled at Harborview by Helen Darrah; an alluring two-piece number consisting of flame red -trousers and a becoming brown and yellow striped top which at one time might have been called a T shirt. Hospice Gets Around yMost of the men at Hospice were gone over the week-end for points east, west, north, and south. Doug Bailey and Art Stenson went home for Saturday and Sunday; Bailey to Port Angeles, Stenson to Everett. Chris Diede had three days at home at the- Apple Capital, Wenatchee. Ray Stephanson managed to get in some fishing around Blaine on Sunday, Onalaska had the pleasure of Ed Prince's presence. Harold Hardman, Cab Campbell, Don Neal, and Harley Huhta had a very pleasant afternoon on Sunday cheering the umps, a la Bronx, at Sick's Seattle stadium. Former Hospice-men, Dick Morsman and Hal Loop, have been doing their share of entertaining at their recently acquired apartment. "Ma" Stearns was a recent dinner guest of the boys. And from all reports they can cook! The steak, direct from the Loop hacienda, El Rancho Loopo, at Edison, was tender and tasty, the salad delicious, the dessert likewise. A drool cup was served with each fragrant aroma emanating from the kitchen. So reports Mrs. Stearns. Plans are under way for the Hospice Inn Doubles Tournament. Play will begin as soon as the drawings and pairings have been completed. Progress Reported • Betty Moles, chairman of the surgical dressing committee, states that the report for the month of April was very satisfactory. Out of the monthly quota of 1,000 assigned to the group of forty-three volunteer workers, the girls made 1,360 dressings and turned in to Red Cross headquarters 1,200. The girls worked a total of 176 hours. "The group has every right to feel pleased over the month's work. We shall all want to make a good record, perhaps even better for May." is a statement made by Miss Charlotte B. Richardson, one of the committee's supervisors.

Hospice Inn took a thriller from the WRA 13 to 0 in four innings and later took over for the regular students team against the Faculty and lost in the two frames they played 1 to 0. Rachel Blekkink was the star of the day as she took a rough beating from the boys sliding into home plate. She retired after three innings badly banged up but nevertheless willing to play. . gt; HUHTA GIVES AUTOGRAPHS Sneaking out of Sicks Seattle stadium last Sunday afternoon in a vain attempt to avoid the crowds, Harley Huhta was confronted by a young Rainier fan who evidently mistook him for one of the ball players and requested his autograph. Hoot's only answer to the heartbroken fellow was, "Sorry son, not today." WESTERN HAS CREW RACE -..With four crews each from the men and the women, Western Washington College proved that they are not quite ready for the Poughkeepsie regatta. Although all the crews showed spunk and determination, the best outfit was the four man group including coxswain Wade Haggard, who was later thrown in the lake's blue water, "Pup" McFarland, Russ Hoppe, Norby Felton, and Aviation Cadet Bob Nelson of the US Navy.

Barnhill will run the 880. Roy Wark will compete in the 440, the broad, jump, and possibly the high jump. Elenbaas and Munizza will be entered in the discus event, while Munizza also will be putting the shot and tossing the javelin. Coach Carver has not yet decided who the extra men to make the trip will be. PINCER MOVEMENT, WWC STYLE A four man pincher movement that was executed in Seattle last Sunday night has been so successful that there have been reports that the government is looking for four WWC men. It seems that they put on a combination pincer and-blockade movement that is a revelation to the throng getting on to the outbound buses in Seattle. After two practice sessions by boarding two of the wrong buses they managed to get into the Bellingham bus with ease. If these four men will report to the WWCol- Iegian office and prove they are the ones they will be awarded a dollar a year job by government authorities. PCL BASEBALL Jimmy Gilday, former Viking supervarsity basketball man, is now leading the Seattle Rainiers in hitting... He has been at bat just once, last Tuesday and got one of the three hits that Seattle got off Lyn, Angel pitcher.

'• Raised in the Grays Harbor city of Hoquiam, he always has been an ardent follower of sports activities. When attending high school he won his varsity letter in football, track and golf in addition to being the varsity -basketball manager. He was unable to follow in the footsteps of his brother, who was an all-American at the University of Washington, because of a physical handicap he received after graduation from high school. He still was able to maintain his interest in the sports world by working on the sports staff of his local paper. At WWC his outstanding work this spring has been with the Junior high school track team as a coach under Sam Carver, as well as being active in bowling and soft-ball. He is well known around his home community as an ardent hunter and fisherman and can be seen striking out for some fishing or hunting rendezvous in his spare time when at home.

Phone 1165 Strankman Leading Viking Courtman Fred Strankman took over the first place slot on the tennis ladder this week by defeating Lefty Le- Barron 6-1, 6-1 in a challenge match on the college courts. LeBarron and Loop were scheduled to play for the second spot but some doubt of Loop's eligibility has arisen. If Loop proves to be ineligible for college competition, LeBarron probably will be number two man on the ladder. Art Reilly, another varsity tennis hopeful, recently was declared ineligible. Butch Paller and Ed Prince will be playing for the remaining positions. The tennis squad travels to Ellensburg on May 22 for the conference tennis tournament. A tentative practice match has been lined up with the Bellingham High school for next week. Golfers Competing • In a 36-hole qualifying match af Lakeway on Wednesday, WWC golfers competed for places on the traveling squad which will journey to PLC this coming week-end for the-' AU-Winko golf tourney. According to Coach Sam Carver, a team of three or four men will make the trip. Ernie Ludwick led the qualifiers with rounds of 78-79. Dick Verrill was two strokes behind with rounds of 79 and 80. Van Sinderen placed third, while Mike Smith took over the fourth slot. Larry Munizza and Bob Kerchen also played in the match. Coach Carver still has not received any' definite word on the number of teams which will participate in the golf matches which will be played on the PLC course. WE CALL FOR AND DELIVER GEO.

Last Monday night behind the nine hit pitching of Ernie Ludwick, the Ensign Sweepers breezed through a 3 to 2 victory over the Hospice Inn softball team. After holding a 2 to 1 margin most of the game, Hospice was unable to maintain their lead in the last inning of the contest, when they booted in the tieing run with" two gone. This latter spelled defeat for the Inners and a well earned victory for the Sweepers. Stenson pitched almost flawless ball for the losers by allowing but four bingles. Ludwick scattered nine hits in letting the second place Hilltoppers down. He had things pretty much his own way most of the contest and showed he could also pitch while in the clinches when he retired the side with a runner on third base twice in the game. Gregg was the big gun for the winners by scoring two of their tallies and driving in the other. Rhodes was the fielding spotlighter of the evening. .B Vossbeck and Morsman led the Inners' barrage by scoring their two tallies.

The Unknowns were able to bring the game to a tie in the fifth frame but were unable to keep it when the Inners went out' in front in their half of the inning.

No doubt sorrie of those students who did not vote will be back next year, still they seemed to have no interest in who will govern school affairs. It. is not a duty, or an obligation to vote. It is a privilege. German andJapanese aggressors do not allow the countries they have occupied to vote. If they did allow these countries to-vote, they would certainly tell them how to vote, and we may be sure the voting would not be done by secret ballot.- But, you see, we live in a democracy where balloting is done in a democratic way. When we go to vote we. do it behind a closed curtain; and without mortal fear of what our oppressors wiil do'if we do not vote the way they tell us. •*• Too many students think, "Oh,' well, what difference does my one vote make?" If everyone thought that, you can -readily see what difference it would make. Orchids to Wade Well, another Campus Day has flowed under the bridge. Almost flowed, anyway.

THIS COLLEGIATE WORLD By Associated Collegiate Press The scene was Napier field, Ala., the characters, a raw recruit and an air corps classification officer. The private stepped forward and said, "Harvard Princeton reporting, sir." The officer, in no mood for jokes, looked up furiously and asked, "What name?" The recruit blushed and stammered, "Harvard Y. Princeton, sir." The officer leaned back and sarcastically remarked, "I suppose the Y stands for Yale!" "Yes, sir," answered the soldier simply. N Private Harvard Yale Princeton had joined with the air corps. Strangely enough, he. is not a college graduate—as a matter of fact, he did not even finish high school.

We went in a different format, with a different design, with a differentpurpose. We sent several people out to hear a poet recite beat poetry in Bellingham, for this issue. A girlcame back with a blank verse impression of what she saw. You'll find it on the next page. You'll findsome different things in this Collegianâ€”ranging from Dr. Jarrett's view of college, to fiction, humor (manykinds) and sarcasm. Our one criterion for all writers, artists and planners was that they use onethingâ€”an idea, different as it might be. This is a departureâ€”we meant it to be. We hope we havepresented a variety of ideas of life, of humor, of art in some way. For our campus it is only a beginningâ€” we meant that, too. For your pleasure or displeasure, then, we present this special issue through theefforts of Dr. Ray Schwalm, Ellis Robinson and the LA. Department (printing); Bob Stevenson (layout,writing, art); Keith Alien (layout, waiting); Judy Borman (writing); Stacy Tucker (the cover); Earl Slator(page 2 calligraphy); and all the contributing writers.

By JUDY BORMAN A comfortable man in a comfortable setting; this wasthe first impression imparted by Dr. James L. Jarrett as he opened the doors of his office to a Collegianreporter last week. Dressed in a brown checked sports coat and a green tie he seemed to fit right in withthe scheme of his office, done in pale green walls, darker green rug, brown furniture and brown leatherchairs. But there is more to this man than his easy, friendly appearance might seem to indicate for hesounds like a truly progressive person with almost revolutionary ideas. He is looking for an educationalideal and if he can realize his many hopes, it looks as though he may come close to obtaining it. Thepresident admits to being near-fanatical on the issue of what might be termed "studentism." It is hisopinion that students should "see college as a full-time occupation, not a forty hour week." He feels thatthe campus day should begin with classes at 8 or 9 in the morning and continue on through late eveningwith the inclusion of classes, library study, school activities, bull sessions in the coffee shop, independent reading and attendance at college functions. "Students' lives should be centered on the campus," heclaimed. As for the role of the Viking Union, he expressed the hope that students will help achieve ahigher cultural and intellectual level for the school through proper use of this building, the very core ofcollege existence." He would like to see the presentation of papers and talks on any and all subjectsgiven in the Union--"anything is of interest to the live mind. "It is his opinion that students should "knockthemselves out in the attempt to build a hive of college-type activities here." Almost more than anythingelse he would like to see the academic standards raised to a higher level. He hopes that an intelligencescreening system can be devised to cut down the admission of students whose chances for collegesuccess are low. Under his administration all departments of the school are undergoing a thoroughscrutiny in an attempt to determine where revision is needed. With the opening of the new ScienceBuilding, additional courses in this department are to be added. The present facilities, according to Jarrett, are "just miserable . . . would disgrace a country school." As an increasing concern for educationbecomes evident the world over, Jarrett hopes Western can keep pace by effecting an enriched program.Besides added classes in the science department, he would like to see the offering of courses in theclassics, upper division courses in foreign literature and a full-scale curriculum in psychology. In answerto the many questions asked about the proposed Honors System, Jarrett stated that the matter is beinglooked into by a faculty committee but that no definite plans have yet been made. If the system is putinto effect it will mean that a small percentage of the most able students will be given the opportunity toenroll in classes especially de- ---------- Collegian - 1959 December 17 - Page 6 ---------- signed for them. The classes, he said, would be mainly taught by the discussion method and wouldstress individual instruction and independent study. With this offering for the exceptionally able, Jarretthopes to attract students to the college. He also expressed a desire to see a scholarship programestablished whereby the academically superior student could recieve financial assistance greatlyexceeding that which is now available. Turning away from this subject for a moment, the president stated that students should be doing considerable independent study. "The student who can't find time topursue outside interests and to read, isn't managing his time very well. Most students sleep too much." ''The fact that I have emphasized change has been continually stressed." A slight frown was visible. "But Iwould like to say that there are many excellent features of this college that I hope to retain." He went onto express specific approval of the drama department and the Collegian. Then he added, "the attitudetoward atheletics is a sane one and the spirit at social functions is good.''' On this note the interviewcame to an end as Dr. James Jarrett rose from his leather chair, glanced briefly out the window at thecampus for which his plans are being made, and went on to other business. DOH*T YOU FÂ£â‚¬L YOUSHOULDN'T eC VMTCHIN6? ---------- Collegian - 1959 December 17 - Page 7 ---------- J $;*Â» is wonderful by Bob Stevenson It's Christmas eve in the year nineteen-twenty and darkness iscreeping across the trees on the street as a man hurries home, being careful to avoid the icy areas. Hiscollar is turned up against the cold and snow crunches under his feet, but inside is a feeling as he thinksabout his wife and family at home. Home, where a fire will be blazing and a tree is growing out of thecolorful packages near the large leather chair. The large leather chair, the warm aroma of dinner when the door bursts open and his daughter rushes into his arms. The close friends and the small party, he thinks, and after that -- after that the story he would read to the children from the large, worn brown volume inthe library. The bus doors opened with a swish and a bang as the cold wind cut through his new topcoat.With a slight jump he alighted on the snow and turned up the dark street toward home. In the eastern skya light was moving westward and flashed on and off intermittently like a beacon swung on a long string.Another sattelite, he thought, and looked down the street at the sodium vapor light which cast a blue hueon the snow in front of his house. It was Christmas eve, nineteen fifty-nine, and the yearly office partywas behind. He opened the door and glanced at the children on the floor in front of the TV as he walked to the kitchen. Only upon nearing the stove could he catch the smell of dinner before the whirling fanwhisked it away. His wife turned to him and said, "Home so early? I'm trying a new brand of frozen dinnerwhich will cook in eighteen minutes, so we can see that early show on television." "Isn't sciencewonderful?'' In the same year, a month earlier, a white-robed scientist looked up from his test tube andmade a profound statement, clinching it with, "It has been scientifically proven." No one would questionhim because, after all, he is a scientist and it was scientifically proven. Twentieth century man willquestion everyone and anything, but a scientist, whom he places on a pedestal and worships.

Plus hope for finals; we hope to see you next quarter. ---------- Collegian - 1959 December 17 - Page 9 ---------- By THE EDITOR I'm just a student, just a student, he thought. That's all I have to be; that's all I will be. ''Hark, the Herald Angels sing, glory to the new-born king . . . " Glory to the new born . . . it's stupid,stupid, stupid. Why all the trouble, why don't they let things alone, why in the hell does everything haveto be mixed up? "Peace on earth and mercy mild, God and sinners . . . " The carolers were coming upthe street now, moving onto the campus, approaching closer. He wanted to shout out, to tell them allwhere to go, what to do, what to do, to do. Last night in the little coffee house down the street (coffeehouse they called it now) he had heard the poet, and he had seen the girls sit fascinated ("why doessomebody give up a normal life to read poetry? Isn't it wonderful?"). He had picked up the magazine andread where a teacher in New York had quit his job because the principal demanded lesson plans and theteacher had labeled them stupid. ("When I am in the classroom, I am the authority.") "Silent night, holynight, all is calm . . . " Two days ago he had sat in on a student-faculty meeting where a professor hadsaid, ' 'of course I don't believe in God; I send my children to church because I know it will be the safestthing for them." Talk, talk. That was the emphasis now. Attend this, attend that. Think, boy, think. Whatwas that some other professor had said--"We're living in a world of academic schizophrenia"? My God,what is the world coming to? " . . . all is bright, round yon virgin . . . " The carolers were on the pavement now, approaching the building next to which he was standing. Sing, you fools, sing. Pull up your littlecollars, smile pretty, stare off into space and sing. Is that all you can do? Of course God will protect you. Of course; he protects us all--isn't that what we're about to celebrate? Or is it? Who has ever seen God--and why must God fit what we seem to want him to fit? Are you sure there is a God? I'm not." My God,he was beginning to listen to that gibberish; it was beginning to repeat itself in his mind. But it wouldn't be long now--not long. There would be only two more quarters to go and he would have the degree, and nomatter what they said about God, schizophrenia and ---------- Collegian - 1959 December 17 - Page 10 ---------- beat poets, it wouldn't matter. He would have the degree. " . . . mother and child, holy infant so tender and . . ." Mild. Mild. Why don't they sing it a little faster? Just step up the beat. Pick up the pace. It's therhythm that counts. Rhythm. My God, "there's rhythm in that painting;" that's what he had actually heard, on this campus, in the coffee shop, where one hundred idiots actually turned out to hear what apsychiatrist, an art professor and a minister had to say about twelve garish blobs of color plastered up onthe walls. Garish. No, he was beginning to pick up the words, too. What is this world coming to? It wasn't this way before. "God rest ye merry gentlemen, let nothing you dismay. Only six months ago he hadwalked this same campus, before the art works were displayed, before the meetings were being held,before he saw the professors running frantically around, now claiming to be "intellectuals--there's value inthinking." So many had changed color so fast; it was remarkable. It used to be pretty peaceful. If youattended class, if you did the lesson plans, if you passed the tests, there were no questions. You couldgo on your way, live your own life, attend your own parties, move in your own circles, and it didn't matter.When you got that degree, you would be safe. (continued on page 12) ---------- Collegian - 1959 December 17 - Page 12 ---------- For Jesus Christ our Saviour was born on Christmas day . . . God, what a mess the world is in.Khruschev raving in Moscow, De Gualle upsetting the continent, and Ike jumping on planes and carrying"the tidings of peace, the great peace messenger" (courtesy of the Hearst chain), while committeesinvestigate Charles Van Doren to see if he's honest and thinks about it. Honest. My God, Does it matter?Money is what counts and everybody knows it. Then here's this new fellow, with the red hair, comingalong, saying "college is not a social romp," and "I want students to think." Well, we'll see. And anyway,it won't matter soon. As soon as I have that degree, these ideas, these people, they won't mean a thing. I don't plan to think. I don't care. It doesn't matter. "Son of God loves pure light . . . " For Chrissake, whydon't they shut up? How do they know there's a God. Have they ever really thought about it? I wonder.What is the world coming to? He shrugged his shoulders, turned and walked into the brightly lit building,passing the Christmas tree to his right, covered with blue lights reflecting on the student art display on the wall, and headed for the coffee shop. It was 8 p.m. and in the room next door a seminar was being held.A professor was telling students that people should think about beliefs, about their whole world. Nothing,he said, is too sacred to wonder about. Outside the carolers still sang. "It came upon the midnight clear. . .

People call me a "Beatnik," they point at me and laugh and if they don't laugh, they usually vomit. What's wrong with me? That's what I keepasking myself. Am I merely emotionally insecure? Are my clothes ill-fitting? Do I have B.O.? The answeris no! I wear a beard (it's really quite becoming). Is this a reason for social ostracism? HARRYINDIVIDUALIST A. Young man, don't be a social flop all your life. Put your facial accoutrements to use.Win friends and influence enemies. Be socially sought after. Be the "life" of the party. I know this articlewill change your entire outlook on ' 'life.'' Make people envy you by using your handicap as a handicup.Yes, be the only man in the crowd with a headless beer. Remove it with your beard. Soon, people willbe clamoring for your services and the world will beat a path to your door. After a hard night's work youcan wring your beard out and have yourself a nightcap. Q. I have heard that college girls have loosemorals. Do they? FRED A. Whatever you heard is by all means false. I myself have attended college,and I can attest to the fact that the girls I knew did not have loose morals because most of them weremarried by the end of their freshman year. Q. I frequently panic when I see beards. Why? UNSETTLEDA. Perhaps it was the fact that your father had a beard. Did you hate your father? Perhaps it was the factthat your father didn't have a beard. Did you love your father? Perhaps it is due to the fact that yourmother had a beard. That's enough to make anybody frightened. Maybe you see people walking alongwith foam dripping from their beards. They are not mad, they just read my column. I'm not mad not madnot mad not mad not mad not mad.

The presents are opened and thanked for, and the family sits down to a good and filling meal. Somego to church, and pray. Everyone says how good Saiita has been to him, and the ties and pen and pencil sets are collected or discarded. The men go into their living rooms, light their pipes, and enjoy their 90proof good cheer while the women finish up in the kitchen. The kids bring out their new toys, some ofwhich are already broken after only a few short hours, The neighbors shout "Merry Christmas" to all andeveryone is happy. And at a faraway time in a faraway place, a mother watches over her newborn son,who is lying in a manger. Whether the Christmas season means all of this, part of this, or none of this toyou, our best wishes are extended this holiday season and may you have the very best of New Years.The Collegian StaffPPPPP</abstract>

In that game, Washingon defeated the Vikings by a score of 38 to 35. After the close scare the Nortii- Campus 'Dream Girls' Parade Before Judges on Tuesday How They "Look At The Birdie" To Determine Which Ten Out Of Twenty Co-eds Will Compete For Crown • Photogenic! That is the basis on which the men students of WWC this week elected the twenty co-eds who will compete for the high honor of Princess of the annual Publications Prom to be held Saturday, February 19, in the college gymnasium. Amy Jean ALLEN, freshman; Lorna Jean BOOR AS, freshman; Jean BORCHARDT, sophomore; Patricia BRIGHT, freshnian; Harriett CLOW,, junior; Helen and Mary CODY, sophomore twins; Elaine DAHLGREN, freshman; Georgia DRIVER, sophomore; Merrie Virginia ERLANDSON, freshman; Betty FISHER, freshman; Patricia GARDINER, freshman; Barbara GILLIES, freshman; Jean KNUDSEN, sophomore; Patricia MAPES, freshman; Zosia NOWAGROWSKI, sophomore; Peggy PAINE, freshman; Allene RUE, freshman; Marjorie SINNETT, junior;* Marilyn TURNER, sophomore, and Theda YORK, freshman, are the preliminary candidates who will appear on stage at a special Prom assembly next Tuesday when a committee of three judges, composed of three local photographers and artists, will narrow the race down to ten women. Tennis Ace Missing Prom Princess Is Secret From Tuesday to February 19, it will remain a secret which one -of these ten will be the 1944 Prom Princess, the final selection to be based on individual pictures taken o fthe ten candidates. One co-ed, Patricia Scott, withdrew from the list of preliminary candidates because of her activities in connection with the Prom. Tuesday, the twenty .women will appear in evening dresses as they step into the spotlight for judging. Contest Underway With these 20 candidates chosen, one of the biggest jobs concerning the Prom is well under way and the other committees, all staff members of WWC publications, are detailing the man situation and plan to import servicemen to make up for the minority of men students. An orchestra has been obtained to play for the dance which will, in the words of co-chairmen Pat Scott and Lorraine McConnell, "Be by* far the biggest dance of the year." Miss Scott, WWCollegian editor, and Miss McConnell, Klipsun edi- (Contlnued on Page Four) Vallc's Open House Welcomes Navy • Spiced with navy uniforms and tuned with the latest in jive, the student lounge was at its liveliest last Friday night as it set the scene for the Open House sponsored by the Valkyrie club. The fact that WWC lost to the Whidby Island Air Force didn't dampen the students' spirits at the dance, nor did the fact that these Navy Men won make the WWC girls unfriendly toward them. Although highlighted by dancing, sidelights of card games, ping-pong, and the "faddish" Ouija board entertained many whom the music didn't bring out. And incidentally, faith in the Ouija board, recently lost, was renewed when it unhesitatingly and exactly told two mystified girls the points scored at the game by various team members. And was it a success? "Naturally," stated Marilyn Turner, the Vaflt In charge, "We even had to push them out the door when closing time came." Ptom 'flask! • From publications headquarters comes the latest report that the formerly scheduled date of the annual Publication Prom has been postponed one week to February 19. SThis change is due to.the conflict caused by the last minute shift **6f the monthly formal dance at the local Servicemen's Recreation Center from February 16 to February 12. On Prom night, a busload of servicemen, including a twenty-piece colored orchestra, will travel from the Whidby Island naval air base to be Prom guests. Dates with servicemen will be arranged for any WWC co-ed who contacts Harriet Clow or Lorna Jean Booras," of the publications staffs. Campus Buildings Get Dressed Up • Extensive improvements have been made in the junior high department of the WWC main building during the last few months, it was learned from President W. W. Haggard. This work has been in progress since the beginning of the fall quarter. The remolding work being done on the seventh, eighth, and ninth grade classrooms, workrooms, offices, and clubroom is being patterned after the Campus school scheme. Miss Evelyn Odom's, Miss Jean Wagner's and Miss Leslie Hunt's classes are now reciting in rooms modernized by the use of new decorative color schemes and furnishings including tables, chairs, and bookcases. Some improvements, such as a new floor, have also been made in the Campus school gymnasium which is being used by the junior high school students. In another part of the main building, the chemistry department, over a thousand dollars has been spent for new piping and other heeded additions. After being in use for 35 or 40 years, the old pipes were in need of replacement. LT. CHESTER LLOYD ORLOFF Lt. Chester Lloyd Orloff, graduate of both WWC and the University of Washington, has been reported missing in action in the Asiatic theatre, according to word received recently by his parents. Lt. Orloff, well-known by the tennis and badminton fans of the city, entered the Army Air corp^ in August, 1942. He* was a crew member of a heavy bomber, having the position of bombardier, and has been stationed with" the U. S. Army in India. Literary Studes Join Forces • As a result of their first meeting of the year in the Edens Hall Blue room last Monday night, literary enthusiasts have decided to request reinstatement of Vanadis Bragi in the Interclub Council and to once again become an organized campus activity.

Chamberlain Takes Dormitory Helm • Mrs. Chamberlain, Edens hall chef, has assumed the duties of Miss Gertrude Longley, dormitory dietitian, who is on her quarter leave of absence. gt; 'The girls who are working in the kitchen are cooperating beautifully, and I have appreciated them so much," said Mrs. Chamberlain. The rest of the* staff; Mrs. Fraser, second cook; Mrs. Jones, pastry; Mrs. Shaw, and Mrs.. Morris, feel that except for the dieters, the meals are making a hit with Edens hill residents. 'Queen of Hearts' Assembly Program • Miss Jeanne Welty, young mon-odramatist, presented this morning in assembly, "Actress, Queen of Hearts," the story of Adrienne Le-courveur's rise to world-wide fame as an actress. Miss Welty's home is in Lima, Ohio, where she received her education and began professional training at the Schuster Martin School of the Theater and at the Cin-cinnatJ^ College of Music. She played the role of "The Madonna" in Max Rheinhardt's production "The Miracle" and ^he has starred in other leading theatrical productions including "The Rivals," "She Stoops to Conquer," "The Merry Wives of Windsor," and The Windemmere's Fad." The mpnodramas, as presented by Miss Welty, are the incorporations of the best features of the dramatic monolgue together with the action and briliant costuming of the legitimate theater. Haggard, Gammage Inspect: Colleges • President W. W. Haggard, of WWC and President'- Grady Gammage of the Teachers' College in Tempa, Arizona, have been appointed by the American Association of Teachers' Colleges to inspect three Oregon normal schools, La Grande, Ashland, and Monmouth.

In-Service To Continue This program done with the cooperation - of the state and under the state superintendent, Mrs. Pearl Wanamaker, has been in progress during the fall quarter and will continue through the year. The main purpose of the In-service training is to help the war-emergency teachers with their problems, but other work is also undertaken by the groups. The winter quarter activities, classroom visits and conferences * with the faculty, will begin next week and will be concluded the second week in February. ern Division champs got two weeks ago, they will probably shoot the works at the Viks in an effort to redeem themselves. Tills means Coach Hec Edmundson probably will start the best team he can, by using players from both his civilian and service squads. v Realizing this, the Vikings have been hard at work all week polishing up their attack. Since the game against the Whidby Island Flyers last week, defensive tactics have been stressed in the workouts and a decided improvementv has been shown. With the return of Larry Munizza who was missed last week, the blue and white hoopsters are in fine fettle and the large delegation of rooters going down for the game may be treated to an upset of the" vaunted Huskies.

FOLLOW THE FLAG TO VICTORY MAPS— «u See Them At The STUDENT'S mm ---------- WWCollegian - 1944 January 28 - Page 3 ---------- Friday, January 28, 1944' Western Washington College of Education;-Bdlin^ham, Washington The Cubby Hole . . by cale Campbell NEW STRAIGHT LINE PRINCIPLE IS BASIC THEORY OF COACH lAPPENBUSCH'S WESTERN COLLEGE DEFENSIVE BASKETBALL The new sixth step in basketball defense evolution, first discovered and used in pass defensive play against lateral attacks in football in 1938 by Dr. Lap . . . ••The straight line principle is new, now, because it is so old: long overshadowed by the arc principle, spherical or global idea. Everything we think of as a unit or whole, is dominated by arc principle. The world is round to a certain extent; we round-out ideas; the unit cell of our bodies is described as assuming a rounded appearance and even our troops cannot go straight from here to Japan because at the top of the globe we are pulled to the right, at the other pole we are pulled to the left arc. • ROUND AND ROUND Therefore it is not an exception to note that basketball is now following the curved line principle. In the offensive the common phase is to break around; to hustle around the floor and you get your hands around the round ball and throw it into a round hoop." From Dr. Francis Powers, Dean of the School of Education at the University of Washington, Dr. Lap has learned the principles of nonconformists. From Dean Uhl's philosophy he has the theory of balance, flexibility and adjustment. From "Babe" Hollingsberry Lappy has copied the method used on pass defense against Jim Phelan in football to cover the strong side fan pass as used especially by the Notre Dame system. The progression is this: "A straight line-has no balance to meet an attack. Therefore to cross two lines gives balance that will cope with a frontal attack only, as encountered in football or as a fast break in basketball." This principle was first used by Lappenbusch in 1938 when Western College went through ah undefeated and untied football season. Coach "Matty" Mathews of Portland University has told Western fans it is the toughest pass defensive system he has ever run up against with his" lateral attack.- HERE'S THE ANSWER The answer is: 1. The straight line principle; 2. The non-conformist principle; 3. The conception of balance, flexibility, and adjustment; 4. The quick shift from balanced to an eccentric or unbalanced defensive protecting strength. Can you put these four points together properly? If you can you have the new Sixth Step in the Evolution of Team Defense in Basketball History. Coach Lappenbusch has not had time to instill this new method thoroughly in all his new men but it worked fairly well against the Huskies two weeks ago, the score being 38 to 35.. Dr. Lap further reiterated that there is always a defense to cope with any offense and there is always an offense to cope with every defense if this offense or defense is discovered in time. We have played the U. of W. Varsity for three seasons and Hec Ed-mundson hasn't as yet beaten us on fast break but he has beaten us on each occasion on backboard play. Hec knows basketball and he knows our weakness, therefore Dr. Lap has been having his boys walking on their toes to attain a foot of height. Coach measures them on how high they can jump off the floor the tenth consecutive time rather than on their statistical stature. gt; . (Further details of this system to be published later.)

Bezer To Be Double Threat Man- • Aviation Cadet Tony Bezer, of Aberdeen, Wash., who was a sophomore at WWC last year, has reported for duty at the Army Air Force's Bombardier school, Carlsbad, New Mexico, where he will study advanced high-level bombardiering and dead-reckoning navigation. Cadet Bezer received his pre-flight training at the Army Air Forces Replacement Center. Santa Ana, California. On graduation from his present station, lie will be awarded his silver bombardier's wings, and (either commissioned a second lieutenant or appointed a flight officer, Bezer was a member of the basketball squad last year. Tony Bezer,. a former varsity basketball performer for I app, who is now.in the Army air corps, training to become a double threat man, can be remembered by most, of last year's students as a double' threat man';on"the maple court at.either„guard or forward.

Coach Lappen^ busch called last week: More speed both on offense and defense was the improvement hoped for by Lappenbusch to counteract that of the Huskies. . . He divided the squad up into three (liferent teams for the turnouts; the first five, the speed merchants, and the boys with height. The first five was the same as started the first two games; the speed quintet included Ross Doud, Gilday, Pomeroy, and Burklund,' the height men were Olson, Dahl, Moe, Foster, and Witt. Spirit and drive were outstanding in the practices, as the varsity-rounded into shape. • Roy Wark, haying improved greatly in tlje last few games, is expected to-be a .big-gun in the Vik's offense along witli Larry Munizza. However, the whole squad is smoothing out and adding more polish to its play, forcing the starting quintet to play their best brand of basketball. All in all, an upset seems to be in the air and don't be too surprised if the Vikings bring home a dog sled and some Huskies. Flyers Upset Viks; Wild Play Feature • Staving off a last minute threat by the Vikings, the sailors from Whidby Island Naval Base drubbed the locals 54 to 48 last Saturday night. Leading by a healthy margin most of the way, the navy five saw a lead of 19 points dwindle to 7 before they could check the WWC attack. Draper, a former great for the University of California, led the Flyers by dropping in 17 points, and playing a great defensive game. Cobb, the forward opposite Draper, plunked through 15 counters during the. game to take second honors for his team. Wark lead the ^kings, finding the basket for J.6 points, and he was followed closely by Ernie Ludwick who garnered 14 tries. Out-fought on the backboards and out-classed in ths floor game through most of the contest, the Viks found themselves in the last five minutes of play and made it tough for the navy men. However, the. fight and drive of the Flyers could not be overshadowed or overcome even by the bid of the WWC quintet. The two teams will meet again at the Whidby Naval Base to resume the rivalry later this season.- Hec Says 'Maybe7 Hec Edmunson, Husky mentor, stated in the morning P.-l. today . that his team was primed for what might be a probable upset from the boys from Belling ham.

RUTH BURNET- _ _ Publications Adviser oditelial. STUDENT OPINION Submitted by Steaming Studes: There is a feeling among the out of town girls at WWC that the facilities- for entertaining dates are not being used to the best advantage. The Edens Hall Blue room is a lovely place to,en-tertain but the hours it is open do not correspond fully with the leisure hours of the women students. •' Early To Bed The hours at present for entertaining guests in the Blue room are until 11 p. m. on Friday and Saturday nights and until 10 p. m. on Sunday nights. The room cannot be used even for out of town guests during the week. There are numerous factors contributing to a restless feeling among the women students. Anything the college can do to lessen this unrest and keep the women interested in completing their col-lege^ education would be of advantage to both. The college students seem to be the forgotten group in Bel-fingham. They have a swell Recreation Center for service men and two canteens for high school students but it seems as if nature has made the only provisions for the college in creating Sehome hill. There Is An Answer "So that you won't think that. all we can do is kick, we wish to propose a workable remedy for the situation intended to benefit both town and out of town students. ; What is wrong with opening the dining room of Edens Hall which is at street level, on Friday and Saturday nights from 10:30 to 1 a. m., under adequate supervision? Right At Home The room should be provided with a phonograph, some records, a soft drink bar and the coziness of a fire in the fireplace. It would keep the college students off the streets after the shows and Q4 v # By TURNER and MURRAY A-hunting we will go, A-hunting we will go, Down to the "U"— To see the "view".

HAROLD MOE drove the little yellow car up to a toll bridge— "Two-bits," called the toll bridge operator. "Sold," replied Moe. I know one sailor is gonna be awfully mad at Ruthe Olds for releasing him for active duty. Yep, she dood it, joined the Waves. Lots of luck, Ruthe. WWC can add another service star. I see M.

No doubt you've heard about the guy with "overseas" eyes—one eye over-seas the other... And then there's the pun about the electricity. No, it's not an old joke—It's a "current" one! While we're on the subject of jokes (who was?) You'll just have to hear this: Man: "Why are you sitting in the refrigerator?., Moron: Well, this is a Westing-house, isn't it? Man: Yes, b a t - Moron: Well, rm westing! Interesting Reviews Given in Series • Do you want to know what to read? If the orange and black sign in the back of the library reading room hasn't attracted you, some of the book titles should. "Life With Mother," recommended by Dr. Lucy Kangley, promises the best in light fiction, while those who are interested in travel may prefer "Through Asia" with Sven Hedia, a favorite author of Thomas Hunt, history instructor. Other suggested books are, "Women After College," referred to by the dean of women, Miss Lorraine Powers, in her talk for the What-to- Read series, and "Mein Kamf," a suggestion of Dr. Arthur C. Hicks, registrar. "The Philosophy of a Biologist," is a recommendation of Miss Leona Sundquist, science teacher. The library display is set up in-conjunction with the talks in the What-to-Read series which are giv-, en every Monday and Thursday in the general reading room of the library. According to Miss Mabel Zoe Wilson, librarian, attendance has been steadily increasing at these talks. WAS MY FACE RED! Don't like to mention names (Oh, yeah?) but a certain editor and her friend, the business manager, had an embaras-sing experience last Saturday night. They were dressed for the storm in the kind of clothes that Knudsen and Moyer INC. might wear in an assembly skit when they met some sailors that had come to see the game . . . Achhh! , Well, as the man who was hoarding Kleenex said, "Guess I'd better blow"... V SICKBED MEDITATIONS (Dedicated to those students and faculty members who have been out from illness this week.) From a sniffling sneeze and a snuffling snoze, I knew that the cold germ was invading my nose. I calidd those commandos, my trusty corpuscles. The ensuing battle made pains in my muscles. My head seemed a dervish, my throat was aflame, Countless aspirins just left them the same. Sent home by the nurse, I wonder devoutly? "How can the school keep running without me?" Beginning of End • Here's your chance at a man again girls—but don't think it's as easy as it appears. This salutary custom did not begin with the cave men (or should I say cave women). Life really became worthwhile for the old maids of bonny Scotland in the year 1288 when a law was passed legalizing man-chasing. The law stated in effect that "every lady of high or low degree could propose to the man of her choosing!" So acute was the need of such a law that the lady could sue said gentleman for a fine if he Tefused her and could prove no other marital inclinations. We all know what parting with money means to a Scotchman. Lonely ladies in France and in Italy took up the battle cry and it was not until 200 years later that a desperate all male legislature rescinded the law for good and all. However, this is 1944 and the calendar calls it Leap Year, so slip on your sneakers, boys—you're in for it! early dances, and it would give them some place definite to bring their friends. In other words it would make the girls who are away from home feel at HOME.

Budget Sheets In For October; Funds Given NSA DelegatesBudget sheets for October were turned in to the Board of Control in time for a synopsis by PaulDodsworth, ASB vice-president, at the meeting Monday night. All departments receiving student fundswere shown in the black as is indicated by the following: Department Expenditures Band 294.97 Choir1390.60 Drama 100.03 Intramural 373.38 Women's Athletics - 5.00 Men's Athletics 6846.55 Social649.35 Forensic Orchestra Balance 3690.03 1009.40 1209.97 774.30 1395.00 1431.45 1954.121547.32 400.00 (Note: Collegian sheets unavailable for printing by the time the paper went to press.) *â€¢ Three delegates were given funds to attend the NSA conference in Pullman December 4-5. Thoseattending will be drawn from the student body, the Collegian, and possibly the school radiobroadcasting organization. Miss Pat Heiber, women's PE department, mentioned the vandalism at the last Friday night basketball game to the extent of scribbling on the walls and the missing . name-plateon one of the faculty office doors. She also requested and was granted the rights to the concessionsat the basketball games and mixers for the rest of the quarter for the Rheba D. Nickerson club. Provision was made, however, to cut the food being taken into the gym proper before consumption. In view ofstudent criticism regarding actions of some of the yell leaders, the co-chairman of the Pep committeeare to be asked to inform the leaders of their duties, in an effort to get some improvement. The boardappointed a committee of four to look into the sponsoring of paying entertainment, receipts ofwhich would go to improvement of the Klipsun and enlargement of the,Collegian. Those IvanHickenbottom; and Elaine Ondracek, editor of the Collegian. Mark Hardie, ASB president; Bill Collyer,secretary to the Board; Betty Grocott; and Ivan Hickenbot-toirr gave reports on the Evergreen conference at Ellensburg last weekend which they attended. Such hot topics as corporation, student unionbuildings, and student disciplinary boards were taken into consideration. Singer Henry Howe Winner of Show Winners of the talent show were chosen by the students after the all school show Friday morning. Henry Howe, baritone, won the first prize of five dollars with his rendition of "Mother Macree." KyleWestland, Bruce Webb, and Pete Garrett, won second prize with a trip consisting of piano, bass, anddrum. Second prize was three dollars and fifty cents. A tie between Lila Bonnie and Donna Howatsonfor third prize resulted in a duplication of prize's. Miss Bonnie did a very effective baton and dance act.and Miss Spot Offered In Video To Educators Seattle and King county will soon have a televisionstation for educational purposes. Equipment worth $180,000 was offered to the Seattle Committee onEducational Television by King Broadcasting Company. Channel 9 has already been set aside for thispurpose. The offer was made by Mrs. A. Scott Bullitt, president of the King Broadcasting Company. Itwas accepted by Edwin H. Adams, chairman of the education committee which is made up ofrepresentatives from institutions of higher learning at Seattle. College Goal, 500 Pts. * Donate YourBlood!' By DAVE GAY "Corpsman!" "Medic!" "Doc!" Whatever the cry of the wounded serviceman, hislife many times depends on the donation of just one pint of blood. Will he receive the whole blood orplasma to replace the blood he lost, or which will bring him out of the state of shock, one of war's worstkillers? Or will he suffer needlessly, or even die because too many people say, "Oh, let somebody elsegive, I haven't got the time," â€¢ *or "But golly, it might hurt; besides I _. f% a # I haven't a way to getthere." ID btudents in Who's Who Fifteen members of Western's student body will represent WWC in the next edition of Who's Who in American Colleges and Universities. A faculty-student c o m m i t t eechooses the students annually on the following basis: 1. Excellence and sincerity in scholarship; 2.Leadership and participation in extra-curricular and academic activities; 3. Citizenship and service to the school; 4. Promise of future usefulness to business and society. Prospective nominees must also have junior, senior or graduate standing. The fifteen chosen for 1952-53. are the following: Nancy E.Brown, Paul M. Dodsworth, Gloria J. Gaupp, Rita M. Goldade, Betty H. Grocott, Marilyn P. Hall, Mark A. Hardie, Nellie R. Kamperman, Raymond. J. Ondracek, Elaine D. Ondracek, Julia M. Redmond,Jean P, Sheets, Lora L. Sovde, James M. Stewart, Murial J. Weber. Formal certificates will be given the fifteen honored during the class day exercises next June. Notice! Final election for the Board of Controlwill end today at noon. Voting is taking place in the student center. It is every student's privilege andduty to vote so be sure to try out the voting machines today! The current shortage of whole blood andplasma show that such is the case. December 1-2-3 the Red Cross is taking blood from donors at theElk's club (across Cornwall avenue from the post office). The Elks are furnishing transportation, andspace The time needed to donate is 15 minutes. In the last drive only approximately 60 of the 1200students at Western (about 5%) donated. Pledges are being taken this week before Thanksgivingvacation by the girls from Senior and Spencer hall. The two houses are conducting a contest to seewhich can sign up the most pledges from the whole school. Western's goal is 500 doners. Sign up in the main hall NOW. Power Cutback Hits City's Industries The ten per cent power cutback which went intoeffect the 17th has hit Bellingham's big industries hard. One layoff had already made a heavier run on the state employment office, and production decreases and layoffs due to the power shortage will bringothers. Western is urged to reduce consumption of power voluntarily. Bellingham Shipyards Company, Puget Sound Pulp and Timber, and Columbia Valley Lumber Company are among the big consumersseriously affected by the cutback. The power cutback is felt all over the Pacific Northwest, and majorindustries in many towns are seriously affected. (Perhaps the solution to the mixing-at-mixersproblem? See page 2.)

There will be more pages than in last year's book.Harrison, Criminologist, To Speak Here One of England's' leading criminologists and authors on criminalsubjects-, Richard Harrison, will speak on "Crime, Its Cost, Cure an lt; Cause" at 10 a. m., December 2,in the A-M building. Author of "Scotland Yard" (published in Britain under the tit! "Whitehall 1212"), Mr.Harrison has been an aircraft worker, a medica student and a farmer. After the last position, he turned tojournalism, working on an English country* newspaper. During his journalistic work, Mr. Harrison covered important criminal trials in Britain for more than fifteen years. Through this contact, and contactwith men while he worked in other occupations, Harrison obtained the first hand knowledge ofbackground in police and criminal methods which led him to write both fact and fiction on thesubject. Because of these activities, and his close association with British police organizations Harrisonhas won a wide reputation as a criminologist, not only in England, but also on the continent. DuringWorld War II he lectured to British and American military organizations oh crime, and police methods,as well as having been a lecturer for the Cambridge University Board of Extra-Mural sutdies. During his stay in the United States Mr. Harrison plans to make a study of American methods of criminal detection and law enforcer ment. ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1952 November 28 - Page 2 ---------- Muscle Women Wanted For Olympics According to a release from Daniel J. Ferris, secretary-treasurer of the Amateur Athletic Union, girls' schools and co-ed colleges today are being urged to cooperate in the development of more' girl athletes in track and field events so that Uncle Sam's chances in the 1956Olympic Games will be'strengthened. Ferris states that women's track and field athletics should be builtup like the Russians, French, and English. He further states that Americans are not giving U. S. girlsenough chance to be GREAT. What some of us health, physical education, and recreation majors andminors would like to ask Ferris, and anyone else wishing to argue the point, is: what is there GREATabout trying to outdo other countries in producing he-women and junior amazons? This is not todenounce the practice in other countries, but rather -to ask why the U. S. should be like a herd of sheepfollowing after a goal which holds no interest to American women themselves. True, golf, swimming, andtennis are three sports producing outstanding women competitors, but they are entirely differentphychologically from track and field events. Swinging a tennis racket to be sociable and act upon theimportance Americans already lend to personality, and spending long hours drilling jn isolation to hurl adiscus and develop a stack of what American women consider superfluous flexing muscles, are activitieswhich are infinitely apart. Ferris further states that women's sports, properly selected, do not producemannish women, and that participating in track and field events will enhance rather than dilute femininity.This may be true but the important thing is that America's women are NOT INTERESTED in that type ofsport, they have not been environmentally conditioned to desire that type in high school, and they arenot interested in being the "first by which the new ist tried" with the consequence of becoming thelaughing stock of the college male.

ESTABLISHED 1884DISTRIBUTORS OF WILSON SPORTING GOODS HURLEY' ELMO T. Home Market S DRUG MARTHURLEY, DRUGGIST Phone 434 Females Fall. Into Types By WIL KNUTSEN The Westerncoedâ€”her whys, and wherefores (if there are any) and, let's face it, men, her whims. Since there arefrequent questions in the minds of the men students â€”many misgivingsâ€”regarding t he WesternCoed, I would like to here and now clear up this complex situation. Follow me, men, and, if you will,we shall examine some of these specimens in detail. First we observe the quiet, soft-spoken kind.Something of a rarity, true, but nevertheless, she represents a definite type. Type A, the Affectinate.Nice appearance, the clean, wholesome type. Does not wear lipstick or anything. Bias tendency toremove shoes and sit on her feet in class. Her favorite food when eating out, Is "Whatever you have,honey." Typical comment, "Sounds good to me." Gregarious, seeks attention. Leaving her, we run intoâ€” aha! I think it is, yesâ€”Type PPE, the Pseudo PE major. She may have any type of curriculum, butto herself she will always be the typical outdoors girl, interested in nothing but sports. This is, ofcourse, entirely affected, for she has secret aspirations. She may honestly be unaware of it, but deepdown in her heart she would like to get mixed up in politics, or something else. She is consistently theindependent type, unless you let her be. Will usually order tea, or something equally foul, on a date.Favorite comment, "You're crazy!" Moving right along, and always with an eye open for new angles, weencounter Type L. The Social Lite. She has great affinity for new cars and luxuriant surroundings. Triesovertly to treat all men equally. Too considerate of men to let them bother to take her to dinner oranyplace else, will usually insist on going home after date. Typical comment, "You're n-i-i-c-e." So thereyou have it, men. The three kinds of Western Women. You may have more. The main point is, you cantell just by looking at them. After all, "Anybody can type."

StaffPhotographer . Jim Stewart Mixer 'Icebreaker Suggestions Vary There is a growing furor among thestudents of Western concerning the ice which exists at all school mixers. There are many and variedopinions by both men and women as to what could be done to melt the ice and really make mixersmixers. ; : â€¢ NANCY JO ROBERTS, junior: LÂ«# r% I I I "Start off the mixer with polkas, Sicbierncae,r hyis tobryo, oedkucsa tioHn, eproeetry and recreational reading are among the topies covered in thenew library books which are ready for circulation. Some of the new books are on display in front of thereading room. "Can you teach me to read?" was the question asked of Dr. Stella S. Center, trainer ofteachers at Columbia and New York universities, by her students. In "The Art of Book Beading," Dr.Center has undertaken to condense what decades of teaching have taught her about how to readparagraphs, sentences, classics and how to expand vocabulary. The book is a guide for the readerwho seeks better understanding and enjoyment in books. Thomas B. Costain gives in "TheConquerors" the stirring and dramatic story of the Norman conquest from the Battle of Hastings until Saxon and Norman were completely merged. By the same author is "The Silver Chalice," an excitingand inspirational story about the cup used by Christ at the Last Supper with his disciples.schottishes, and the Mexican shuffle, because more of the students seem to participate in these types of dances." DAVE GAY, freshman: "The girls are always complaining about boys not asking fordancesâ€”why don't they have a dance with all girls choice?',' ROSEMARY ROSS, junior: "In a schoolof this size there should be more community spirit, and the kids shouldn't s t a n d in segregatedgroups." TIM GIBSON, freshman: "Save electricityâ€”turn off more lights." DOROTHY JAMES, senior: "A mixer similiar to Senior halls', which had broom dances and girls choice, would help acquaint students." DONNA NUGENT, sophomore: "More students will probably respond to a few novelty dances." HAPGALLANT, senior: "The girls should take more initiative, because a lot of boys are afraid of beingrefused when they ask for a dance." True Meaning Of Thanksgiving Is Realized On Battleground By JIM Thanksgiving day may dawn bright, clear and cold.

By RAY ONDRACEK Faking beautifully and using a wide variety of shots, Bob Stone hitthe net for 22 points against UBC last Friday. Bob has played a lot of basketball the last few years, beinga standout performer for a Seattle boys' club in 1945, playing prep ball at Highline in '46 and '47, andplaying ball for a navy team before coming under the tutoring of JV coach, Jerry Starr, in 1951. Bobmoved up to the varsity last season and had a very successful year under Coach Bill McDonald. From the looks of things this 6 foot 2 inch wizard is going to be a big factor in Western's basketball future. Ifany one campus organization is having financial difficulties they might pick up a few ideas from theWomen's PE, health, recreation majors and minors club, the Rheba D. Nickersons. The Rheba D's areearning money to send a representative to the AAHPER conference at Missoula, Montana, and so farthey are doing all right. Through washing cars and selling pop they have netted approximately $60 to date. This club is a major asset to the PE department so here's a tip of'the hat to President Loretta Stibre andthe members of the Rheba D's!

Temporarily, the school athletics .have been turned over to the studentbody. This situation will remain until the final decision on Thursday. The deciding issue could be thatUBC has had tough luck in all their sports, especially football. Western Washington and all the otherschools in the conference could be harmed if UBC drop from the conference. This would be broughtabout by a loss of gate receipts. The valuable relationship between the Canadian students and theAmerican students would also be lost.

Cries of "athletic paradise" and ^radicals -who oppose athletics" havenearly scattered themselves to infinity over the campus since the BOC's grant of $1,800 in studentmoney for athletic scholarships. -v It is not our purpose, at this point, to act as a judge of whether or notthe motion was a step in the right direction. Time usually issues much better decisions. But whatevermotives involved, feelings hurt, principles denied, or wrongs initiated, the Board of Control took one of its quickest, most decisive and far-sighted actions of the year. For once student government did not bogdown on an. issue because an insignificant clause did hot please several Board members. For oncethis year, the Board acted as though it was working with the confidence of the m a j o r i t y of thestudents by BOC Action Firm, Quick whom it was elected Yet there are those who believe such avital issue should have been turned over to the students for a vote. This would have taken eight weeks ormore under normal conditions and would have rendered any immediate actionâ€”vital to the very purposeof the proposalâ€”impossible. ' I f the Board is to go to the voters for approval on all vital issues, where itis to draw the line? Certainly the student body budget is vital. Would the Board submit every division ofthe budget to the students? If so, it could hold mass meetings to approve each segment; athletes wouldcome to vote on the athletic division, journalists to vote on the publications division, musicians to vote onthe music department division, and all disinterested persons could sit back sipping the free coffeeprovided for each session. ' ' This would nearly eliminate any need for a Board of Control (except jof-course, to preserve the democratic right of every student to be allowed to vote) and representativegovernment could be forgotten^ \ The purpose of the Board is to act for the students, and if it acts in thewrong manner, it's up to the students to let it know. Meanwhile progress waits at the BOC's doorstep,- itis not particularly patient. There are times when every group delegated with authority and responsibilitymust act quickly and immediately. If the BOC doesn't feel it can act quickly with the confidence of thestudents, it is worthless. If it must come running to the students to approve its very intended vital action, it is purposeless, is impeding progress, and should be dismissed so we can all go happily back toAthenian democracy where the grass roots of Weltern will truly speak for themselves, V: Dear Editor:May I have a few lines to express a few opinions and ask a few pertinent questions? I am verydisturbed by the action of our board in setting up an athletic scholarship. I am even more disturbed bywhat appears to have been a surreptitious attempt to avoid any opposition from adverse student opinion.Is Mr. Moffett so sure that he has a mandate from the students that he doesn't have to bother withconsidering student body opinion? To date we haven't even been favored with an explanation as to whywe should give an athlete $150.00 to come and play games for us. Perhaps there is ho good answer. I've heard the platitudinous sport objectives: to build fine, healthy bodies, to teach sportsmanship andteamwork, the necessity of social experiences, etc. But none of these is the real objective, it it? None of these requires $150 athletes or a $10,000 football program. Isn't the real reason entertainment? forplayers and spectators? If the immediate reason for these scholarships is to win games, as Isuspect it is, then why bother to put 'these, $150 pieces of property through an afcademib; curricula? Ithas - lt;4ong been m^v opinion that.there is? no Relationship of any value between athletic ability andacademic ability. Apparently our own sport editor agrees with that. ;(I ad: 'h1Â§ remarks in theFebruary i7, 1956 -issue of the Collegian.) Or do we need these athletes as an integral part of thestudent body so we can derive some vicarious prestige from them when they win games? We are insad shape if we must entrust our college prestige to the sport pages. Sincerely, Ron Leistra By ALLAN MATHIESON I Time brings all things (if you don't forget to renew your subscription) and time, byspecial arrangement with the board of trustees has brought the robins, butterflies and keg parties into aposition on Western's horizon which is horrifyingly imminent. I Yes, unless the science department startsfiddling around, we may expect, any day now, the appearance of spring, the season ! when lunacybecomes more than just a part time hobby. Any day now, the BOC will lapse into lethargiclistlessness, rousing themselves only occasionally to snarl at each other before feeding time.' Beachparties, tennis and virility will be on many lips, ukuleles will be restrung, and the old favorites will be sung in close harmony. Close harmonyâ€”that means when ever-body is singing the same words. Already,signs of vernal activity have appeared on and off (mostly off) campus; the ladies, are beginning to payless attention to wearing clothes for warmth and are beginning the annual assault upon theboundaries of decency with the usual eye for the provocation of the usual male urges, using the sameold bait. We predict, however, that due to the lateness of the arrival of the baiting season there will befewer fish caught, and caution the ladies about exposure during the recent inclement weather, as arecent check with the nurse's office revealed an unusual number of spring colds. We repeat, girls, don'trisk your health in a premature foray, you'll have plenty of time between now and June to get your oarsin. Spring, the time of the T-shirt, the season of sighs, the destroyer of grade-points, and single,married type happiness is upon us. The grass is greening, the girls are preening, and all is idleness or folly, or, more probably, both. Has anybody seen my tennis racket, my ermine swim suit or my gal?(Answers to the name of Gretchen, a sharp command from a male voice or the gentle jingling of loosechange). * ^tM% Me Student (fatten . tltliletically ^beahins By LEO MARTY (This article is printed inresponse to an offer of equal space to a view opposing that of Mr. Dunlap, printed last week.) This is adirect article not meant to be sarcastic or vicious, but informative. Do many people on campus really know what it takes to have good athletic teams? Some people on campus feel that we are competing in thewrong way. Do you feel that competition "is big time? That is the basic principal upon which ourdemocracy is built, competition. '. Every college in America offers scholarships in almost all fields.Athletics, like music, science, |-IT IS WITH REAL REGRET that the Collegian loses Tom Manney thisfquarter. Manney, however, does not leave without leaving his dmark on present and future Collegians. Hisorganization this year turned the Collegian into a workable, flexible organization. In editorial policy andmagnitude he contributed greatly. For one of the first times definite policies and plans of organization were set up that could be built upon without beginning from the bottom each time a staff changed. We shallmiss his direction, but his past work serves us well. and art, needs to attract in college good personnelin order to produce good teams. Did you ever wonder why this college of education has athletics? It is to give our future Physical Education teachers and future coaches experience. Let's look at the MusicDepartment for example, which is one of the best in the Northwest. The members of the Band, Choir,and Orchestra have a chance to participate and gain that valuable thing called experience. The samething applies to* athletics. â€¢ it- i, Athletics is more than just a bunch of big husky guys who can doany physical activity. They are men who have a sincere desire, like everyone else in Education, to teachand inspire in a proficient manner. These men, big and small, from golfer to football player, have a skilland talent that is in demand. The scientist needs a laboratory, an artist needs an easel and brush, amusician needs an instrument, and an athlete needs a team. Western pays the Editor of the Klipsuh$240 a year. If this were considered a profession on campus then no student would be hired. The BOCrecently passed some scholarships that'will allow $150 a year for an athlete; to help him through school. This too, is an extra- curricular activity. We do not consider the KHpsun Editor a professional, thenwhy should some people on campus say that the athletes are going to be professionals? No. this isnot an effort to make Western into "big league" stuff. The Eyergreen Conference will never allow anyprofessionalism to occur. None of our coaches, either, would allow such a thing to happen. As I havepointed out the Athletic Department has just as great a need for talented people as other collegedepartments. * "v Welcome, new students, to the Associated Student Body and 'WWC. As you paidyour fees on registration day you all became members of the ASB. $10.50 of your fees goes to the ASBand is spent on such things as athletics, band, drama and social activities. Within two weeks the Boardof Control, the legislative body of the ASB, will receive the proposed budget for next year. Since Westernis growing in population, the budget of the Associated Students is likewise growing and is importantwork. Each year at this time the Finance Committe requests proposed budgets from the various ASBdepartments and formulates the total budget for submission to the BOC. Usually the departments request more money than is expected in income, so the Board must cut from the requested budgetssuch items as are not completely justified or needed. Two years ago the Board of Control had to cut almost $10,000 from the requested budgets. And in past years the final approval of the budget wasnot completed until summer quarter. This year, thanks to the co-operation of the Finance Committeeand the department heads, we are getting started on the budget early and should complete its workearly in May. Other than the $10.50 of your fees which goes to ASB, 50 cents per quarter goes to ourStudent Facilities found, $2 goes to the Klipsun fund, and $1.50 goes to the Student Union fund. Nextyear $4.50 per student per quarter will go to the Student Union fund. As you can see, the AssociatedStudents is becoming a big business responsible for many thousand dollars.

Peron Crimes Told By A6-L Speaker By ALLAN MATHIESON In abehind-the-scenes account of the rise and fall of the Peron Regime in Argentina, Professor Hubert Herringasserted that "American diplomacy helped to elect Peron" and that a lack of consistent policy towardsthe Peron dictatorship caused America to "flounder" in her diplomatic relations with the South Americancountry. Herring's address, given Tuesday in the Auditorium, was a personal viewpoint of the 12 yearâ€”â€”- Al Gunderson Takes First In Tourney Al Gunderson took the first place trophy in after-dinnerspeaking at the Pi Kappa Delta provincial speech meet at Washington State College March 29-31. Thisis the second trophy Al has won for Western this year. The three day meet for members of thehonorary was attended by colleges from Oregon, Idaho, Montana and Washington. Highlighting thetournament was the provincial meeting where plans were-made.for the national convention to be held in1957. Thursday evening, March 30, Don Eastvold, state attorney general, spoke on politicalconventions at the provincial banquet. This was_the fifth and concluding trip for Western's forensicsquad this year. It ended college forensics for Chuck Dennis, who is a senior and president of the PiKappa Delta chapter at WWCE. Others who attended the tourney and have been active in forensicsare Bill Cox, Gail Gustafson, June Kellogg, Ted Hagen, Pat Northrup, Naomi Roley, and LarryRichardson.

OWL PHARMACY HelenaRubenstein Cosmetics Holly and Cornwall Ph. 723 Peronista regime in A r g e n t i n a, which hetermed "the problem child of the Americas." Speaking from a great deal of experience in Argentina, He r r i n g pointed out the methods by which Peron came into power and the mistakes he made whichresulted in the coup of last year. Herring was careful to point out that the revolution which saw Peronousted was not strictly a movement on the part of the military forces of Argentina. He told of conductingan on-the-street-poll just prior to the uprising, where he was informed "Peron is a tyrant, an enemy of the people. Peron must go." The fact that Peron had alienated the church, and burned 70 churches inArgentina was a contributing factor to this hatred. Herring was optismistic about the new governmentin Argentina, but deplored the situation of bankruptcy and corruption left behind by Peron. "The newcrowd is good, it has some excellent people in it." He then went on to cite the restoring of autonomyto the Argentinian universities, cleansing of the labor unions, vigorous attempts to restore theeconomics of the country, and the reopening of the free paper, La Prensa. The U.S. alternating policy ofappeasement and damnation of the Peron Regime was condemned by Herring, for its inconsistency,towards the country which is "literate, progressive, rich in resources, and should be the mostimportant country in South America."

I can see why the coaches are pleased and also note thatthe cries from the PE building are finally being heard. Western has needed such scholarships for quitesome time and it is a great relief to know we finally have them and that the BOC is behind the buildupprogram. Of course, we can't expect the BOC to do everything but they have taken a step in the rightdirection with the passage" of the money. The opposition has been meager which probably shows thestudents also feel the need of improved athletic situation and are fully endorsing the BOC action. We dohave a few "radical Jacks" Who are m}iiimwi^m^i, after the headlines more than they are after rejection::Â¥::~:::s:ffi:*:*Â»: of the action. Sound -opposition is fine. If some people have another feasible plan that would work, it is fine that they express themselves. But when they just want to blow off steam becausetheir feelings have been hurt that is another matter. I would listen to a realistic plan to offset this grant. It is funny how academic and personal backgrounds pop up whenever athletics get a break. The wholesystem is torn into. Some people actually suggest eliminating the whole athletic setup. This is what Imean by radical. It isn't even realistic. Actually, I don't see any "big deal" being pushed over. I see it as astep forward. Just as I would â€¢ if the money were being given to music, f orensics, or some other club.Again I say, it is merely a radical Jack who suggests such oppositions and I really feel that the studentbody in general heartily approve the whole thing. HUBBARD STILL AWAITS REPLY Jack still hasn't gota reply from the reporter for the Oregonian who resigned him from his position. Maybe the reporter is stillhiding under his desk. I asked Jack if I could quote him on something he said in his letter, but he had no'comment. Don't let your minds wander, it wasn't that the vocabulary wasn't very select. I wasdisappointed in the way the town paper handled this story and the story about the 12 scholarships. Themisinformation got only a column mention (actually not too bad) but the scholarships rated only one littleline in a column. I would think the. latter was one of the big stories of the year.

According to physical science instructor, Dr. Fred Knapman, science has agreater effect on the way people live than it ever had before. This, he stated, is the reason we need betterprepared science â€¢ teachers in the years to come. That is why Western has requested of thelegislative Budget Committee 'So I happen to enjoy basketball-whafs that got to do with the way I grade in this class?" PENNEY'S Always First Quality 1309 Cornwall Ave. 119 W. Magnolia. $1,740,100 for anew science building. If the bill requesting a new science building for the College is passed in the next legislature, the building will be ready for use in spring or fall of 1959. When the Budget Committeevisited the campus last quarter, the two outstanding weaknesses of the present science wing werepointed out. These are the inadequate space and facilities of the Science Department and the prevalentfire hazard. In planning a building for the next 50 years, the estimated 1965 The science laboratories willbe equipped with new furniture. They will be clean, well-lighted and fireproof.

Books. *-* f* â€¢ w/i iÂ£*r\ â€¢ Clothes in FireOnComingWUSDrive Five Western students were aroused abruptly from sleep Wednesday, about 1 a. m., by the smell of smoke and burning wood. One student received burns on his hands, arms andface while leaving the house through the entrance. His four companions escaped uninjured through asecond story window. James Macnab, upon awakening, threw open a door and was greeted by eagerflames. While fleeing through the house he received first and second degree burns on his hands, armsand face. Maurice Hal-leck, Don McCann, Jerry Waner, and Hugh Locker, the other men in the house,made a 15 foot drop from the second floor to safety. The cause of the fire has not yet been determined. It is believed to have started in the living room. The owner of the property is living in California. A localrealtor is managing the rental property. Moderate damage was done to the house although the other part of the duplex was not affected. The damaged part of the house will be reconstructed soon. DeanMcDonald was notified around 1:15 a. m. of the fire. Macnab was taken to St. Joseph's hospital fortreatment. He was reported as doing fine Wednesday night and expected to be dismissed some timeThursday. "Help them to help themselves.'* This short sentence will be the motto for the World University Service fund drive at Western next February. With Rosemarie Oldow as their chairman, members ofthe TJSCF have already begun working on plans for the project. The committee held its first meetingThursday, December 2. The drive ,wffl take place during WUS Week, February 11-18, 1955. Committees selected and their ehairmen include Janet-Kay Warneke, kickoff assembly; Bob Strong, posterpublicity; Jan Atteberry, club projects; and Guy Cauthers, special poster work. WHAT IS WUS? Justexactly what is WUS? World University Service is an international voluntary agency which operates aprogram through which students of the world unite to help each other help themselves. Under the WUSprogram of material assistance students and professors in America and other countries contribute toaid students and professors at foreign universities who are in need of support in such fields as studenthealth and student housing. WUS also supplies educational equipment and materials to needyuniversities. It aids student refugees and supplies students and pro- 1200 Students Pre-Register ForWinter Quarter Classes A new system of pre-registration was used for the first time this quarter. "Thenew plan, involving the filling out of class cards, seems to be working quite well. It will save time in finalregistration, January 3, and permits better control of class size," said Ferris. Formerly, class :ards werefilled out by the student as part of final registration procedure. 1200 PRE-REGISTER Over 1200students have pre-reg-istered (Tuesday) )as compared with about 1000 at this time last year, accordingto the registrar. "It begins to look as if enrollment will reach 1450 to 1500 for winter quarter this year as compared to the total of 1280 winter quarter of last year," stated Ferris. "Necessary changes in pre-reg-istratton may be made on December 13 and 14, and on January 3, before completing registration," saidthe registrar. No fee will be charged at these times. CLOSED CLASSES The number of closed classeshas not been unusually great this quarter. Several new sections of required classes have been opened to ease difficulty created by filled classes. "The main difficulties with schedules arise in the case ofstudents who cannot devote a full day to classes because of outside work obligations," said Ferris.Final registration day is January 3. On that day, report to the information desk on the landing in themain hall of Old Main according to the following time schedule of last names: - 8:SOâ€”A, B 9:00â€”C,D 9:30â€”E, F, G 10:00â€”H 10:30â€”1, Jâ€ž K 11:00â€”L 1:00â€”M 1:30â€”N, o ; P 2:00-4), B2:30â€”8 3:00â€”T, V, V, 3:30â€”W, X, Y, Z Datelimi e..

According to "Miss Oldow, WUS works without prejudice to race or creed toencourage and support all efforts on the part of students, professors, and others, to meet the basicneeds of the universities throughout the world. The world-wide program is administered by a staff inGeneva, Switzerland, and works closely with agencies of the UN. For approximately 16 years, WUShas annually conducted fund-raising campaigns on more than seven hundred American campuses tosupport its program. . W h a t " has this organization achieved in the past? In the 1953 drive, some ofits achievements included sending $15,000 to Korea for the purchase and renovation of a building tobe ustfti to house 100 students when completed; and sending $10,0#-worth of food and more than$5,000 worth of scholarship aid to Korean students. SELF-HELP PRINCIPLE The entire WUS programstresses the principle of giving help to self-help. An example of this is: students at a university in Asiamay wish to start a student health service. They will use a WUS grant to obtain a building or room foruse as a clinic and to purchase medical equipment and supplies. The health service, when operating,will charge its student patients a small fee-enough to maintain its operations, or even to expand.Shoreline Teachers Visit WWC Campus Twenty-four teachers and administrators from the Shorelineschool district in Seattle visited the WWC campus on Tuesday, December 7. Included in the group weretwo supervisors, five principals and vice principals, and 13 classroom teachers. Miss Adah Minor,elementary supervisor of the Shoreline school district, was in charge of the group. Arriving atapproximately 9 a. m. the visitors toured the Campus school during the morning, the industrial artsbuilding in the afternoon, and met with the WWC Campus school staff at 2 p. m. Violinist, PianistIn Concert Tonight Whatcom County Cerebral Palsy association will hold a concert in the collegeauditorium tonight at 8 o'clock. Highlights of the concert will be Helen Detastel, violinist, and Gun-narAnderson, pianist. Tickets for the performance are 35 cents. Colleges of Education May Charge Tuition "It would appear that there is no specific constitutional provision forbidding a statutory enactment to allow a reasonable tuition to be charged at the colleges of education," said Attorney General Don East-void ofthe recent proposal by the state legislative budget committee. The committee has been studying thepossibility of requiring tuition at the three Washington colleges of education, Western, Central, andEastern. + At present, the state colleges do not charge tuition; tuition being de- Dr. Ross Tells OfShortage Of Teachers A nation-wide shortage of qualified college faculty members is beingpredicted for 1960, according to Dr. J. Alan Ross, professor of education and psychology at Western.Dr. Ross recently returned from a Salt Lake City meeting of the Northwest Association of SecondarySchools, where he said the impending college teacher shortage was one of the main topics ofdiscussion. "The tremendous wave of World War II babies will soon reach college age," Dr. Ross pointed out. Colleges are already taking about 30 per cent of the high school graduates in this country, hesaid. Based on that figure, college enrollments will increase from 2% to 3 million during the next 5 years. The figure could Jump to 40 per cent, further complicating the problem, according to Dr. Ross. "Wemust find means to attract j fined by Dr. W. W. Haggard of Western, as instructional fees. The $36 perquarter now being charged is for such things as student and health activities rather than instructionalfees. "We are not asking for permission to charge tuition," said Dr. Haggard, after Eastvold's statementwas made public. Asked if he thought a tuition charge would cut down enrollment at the state collegesof education, Dr. Haggard replied: "That is one of the things we are seriously thinking about in thisproposal by the budget committee. We fear it will." The present fees at Western now total $108 per yearas compared to $165 per year, which is the basic tuition charge at the University of Washington.Registrar to Mail Grades to Students "GTades will be mailed to students about December 23," saidRegistrar Don Ferris. They will be mailed to the address given by the student at the time ofregistration. Any address changes should be reported to the registrar's office before the end of thequarter. "All accounts at the library, the and train a larger number of talent- ! PE departemnt, etc., mustbe cleared students for the profession of' ed before grades can be mailed," college teaching," hedeclared. said Ferris. College Musicians to Present Christmas Concert Monday Western's annualChristmas concert will be presented by the Music department Monday, December 13, at 8:15 p. m., in the college auditorium. This program will be the ninth and last in the fall quarter Artists and Lecturersseries.

NO!! In 1953, about the time the state legislature was meeting, Western was faced with approximately the same situation they face nowâ€”the possibility of tuition having to bepaid at Western as well as at the other two colleges of education, Central and Eastern. At that time thebill providing for tuition was voted down. Don Eastvold, of the state legislature budget committee, statesnow that there is no specific constitutional provision prohibiting the charging of tuition at the teachers'colleges. This statement seems to indicate the budget committee is again considering a bill for tuition. Itis felt by the editor that this bill, if passed, would do more harm than good. Several reasons werepresented in the editorial of the issue of February 13, 1953, why passing the tuition bill would beunwise. These reasons still hold true, in the main, nearly two years later. SHORTAGE OFTEACHERS IN STATE The shortage of teachers in Washington is the same if not more of a problemtoday than it was two years ago. For instance, figures in 1953 showed that from 1947 until 1953, 8,814teachers in the state of Washington had quit or had been placed on the inactive list. Many Washingtongraduates are taking jobs outside the state because of more money. SHORTAGE OF COLLEGEINSTRUCTORS SEEN Also, a nation-wide shortage of qualified college faculty members is beingpredicted for 1960. One can readily see that if the tuition bill is passed and the bill does cut down thenumber of teacher-training students, the problem will become more acute. College instructors must startsomewhere, and if the new tuition bill goes into effect many potential college instructors will never finishschool. (See story on instructor shortage, page 1.) The problem is probably more acute than statisticsshow. For instance, many educators today are old and ready for retirement. In 1952, almost 2,500teachers were ready for retirement. Obviously the teacher shortage problem could easily become moretroublesome. LACK OF TEACHERS LONG A PROBLEM Lack of competent teachers has long been a problem, all over the nation as well as in Washington. Some progress has been made. Now the possible tuition bill may again be brought up before the legislature. If passed, this bill will undoubtedly do muchharm to the teaching situation. Many students are able to attend the three education colleges becausethere is no tuition. Competent persons seem to think that, if passed, this bill will hurt enrollment atWestern. For present students, as well as future students, let us hope that if a tuition bill is proposedto the legislature, it will be voted down as it was last time. S4?C1444 the SteVld . . . fy Saytei WhenRay Cohrs, ASB president, called the Board of Control meeting to order last Wednesday at 4:00 thefollowing members were present: Dr. Critchfield, Dr. Van Aver, Mary Jones, Donna Wray, Rey Sundal,Gary Douglas, Rol Sayler, Rodger Williams, Dave Gay, Ed McFate, Dave Northrup, and Lenko Gazija.Following an investigation of the justification for 15, new jackets for the men's glee club, the Student* 'â€¢ Facilities committee recommended that the Board appropriate $300 for the Music department topurchase the jackets. .It was brought out in the discussion that the men's glee club will be a permanentgroup on the campus and that these jackets will also be used by the Vocolleg-ians. DELEGATESREPORT Next on the agenda was a report from the delegates, Virginia Wilkinson and Dave Northrup,who attended the Great Northwest Region of the National Student Association conference held atWashington State college last weekend. The delegates explained the organization of NSA, the workaccomplished by the association, and what benefits Western would receive if we became members ofNSA. (One of the reasons the BOC sent the delegates to the convention was to investigate theadvisability of joining this organization.) The membership fee for national membership in NSA is$50 a year and $25 for Regional fees. COMMITTEE RECOMMENDS The committee of tworecommended that we (WWC) do not join National Student Association, but remain an interestedperipheral school and use some of the information facilities that NSA offers. Reasons given for notjoining the organization were the lack of common problems between the larger and smaller schools inthe region, lack of enthusiasm shown by member schools in the organization, (we already belong toEvergreen con- WESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAN Since 1899 Member Intercollegiate PressEntered as second class matter at the post office at BellinRhani by virtue of the act of March 8, 1879Printed by Cox Brothers, Inc., Rellingham, Wash.

" , University of Chicago, Chicago, Ill.^-Student exchange with Russia and theadoption of a fair educational practices code were the main issues discussed by 55 representatives of11 member colleges at a regional National Student association conference held at the University ofIllinois recently. The U. of Chicago is a member of the NSA. (The feasibility of WWC joining theNational Student association has been investigated by the BOC.) On the Russian exchange, thedelegates passed a resolution declaring their willingness "to participate in an exchange of students withany nationâ€”including Iron Curtain countries," with a provision that the students exchanged meet ageand scholastic requirements. Washington State College, Pullman, Wash.â€”A lie detector test wasadministered recently to girls living in Wilmer hall. The reason for the test was to corner the culprit OTculprits who have stolen articles of value from the dormitory rooms. A house committee is working inconjunction with the college sociology and psychology departments in an attempt to retrieve aneighty-five dollar watch, various amounts of cash, cashmere sweaters, and other articles of clothing.Gonzaga University, S p o k a n e, Wash.â€”The Gonzaga men's glee club, under the direction of Mr.Lyle Moore, were part of 1500 voices in a choir which sang at a Solemn Pontifical Mass held lastSunday in the new Spokane coliseum. The Mass was a climax to the observance of Marian year. Marian year was proclaimed by Pope Pius XII to call for prayers for peace and to mark the centenary of thechurch's doctrine regarding the Immaculate Concept Virgin Mary. ference which is similar in scope)and the cost of sending delegates to conventions held by NSA would be too expensive. The Board moved and adopted the report submitted by the delegates. NEW STATIONERY Samples of various formats for the new ASB stationery from Mr. Zawacki's Art class were submitted for consideration by the Board.Three of the best samples were selected for further consideration. To get more people interested in the "Writer," Western's creative writing magazine, and to stimulate them to enter the writing contests, theBOC approved a request for funds ($85) for the "Writer" to be used for prize money. WESVETSREPORT A representative from the Wes-vets club reported that, only" $48 of the $85 granted was spentfor the "mixer" last Saturday night and the remainder was turned into the business office. The band cost$42, decorations $1, and the bus $5. Requested Budget Reduced by Board of Control for Balance Togive you,, the student body, a better conception of what happens to the $10.50 (approximately one-third of your registration fee) that you pay into the ASB each quarter, the Finance Committee is presenting thisreport on the ASB budget. All Associated Student Body income for the year goes into a general controlaccount called budget control. This income, estimated to be approximately $50,000 ig divided betweenthe respective departments as approved by the Board of Control in the budget. Any additional monies inbudget control over that delegated or earmarked by the Budget remain in the Control account and may beapportioned by the Board of Control for additional expenditures not specified in the budget. Requests forsame must be submitted to and approved by the Board of Control. It is necessary at'all times that somemoney be available in budget control for unanticipated emergencies. This is allowed for in part byplanning a corirÂ»ervative budget; a conservative estimate of income is made and expenditures areplanned accordingly. During the first part of spring quarter last year, various departments submitted to the Finance and Properties committee a requested budget for the next year.

Large Turnout Hears Manton, Orchestra, onSame Program WWC students and Bellingham townspeople took advantage of two opportunities to hearthe outstanding tenor, Raymond Manton, on Tuesday, December 7, in the college auditorium. Mantonwas enthusiastically received by an audience that nearly filled the auditorium to hear his recital at 10 a.m. During this performance, Manton spoke directly to his audience only once. All other time in theperformance was reserved*â€” for singing. The tremendously pow- Fantasy," by Churchill-Herfurth. erfulvoice of the artist made the use of a microphone completely unnecessary. ENGLISH NUMBERSPOPULAR The numbers sung in the English language seemed to draw more response from thelisteners than did the Italian, German and French selections. Particularly well received by theaudience were such selections as "He's Got the Whole World in His Hands," by Kerby-Forrest, andthe Rachmaninoff-number, "Oh, Cease Thy Singing, Maiden Fair." Arthur Thai violinist, accompanied thetenor in the latter number. During the morning program, Manton was accompanied by Donald Jones at the piano. ONLY ONE ENCORE Since the vocalist was alloted only one hour for the performance, time permitted only one encore'; a well-known aria from the German composer Flotow's opera, "Martha."Manton's performance with the Bellingham Civic Orchestra at 8:15 drew a much smaller number ofWestern students, with the audience being composed mainly of Bellingham citizenry. Western canjustly be proud of the 45 students who appeared among the 80 members of the Civic orchestra, under,the direction of Dr. Frank D'Andrea. WELL RECEIVED NUMBERS Especially well received among theorchestral numbers of the evening were "Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring," by Bach-Roberts; "Introduction toAct 3," from Wagner's opera "Lohengrin," and the "Snow White The audience was so enthusiasticafter the last number that Dr. D'Andrea used it as an encore. Franklin Nielsen, junior, very ablyconducted the orchestra for the "Rosamunde Overture" by Schubert. Manton's evening performanceseemed quite stiff in comparison with the morning presentation. Not enough practice with the orchestramay have accounted for this. For both performances, Manton's numbers were well selected to interestthe listeners.

This is football? Dig the crazy announcer. He's real gone, you say. Either that,or I'm just not hep. What's with this "center adjuster" business and this "flexor guy"?
