XXIX—NO. 41 WASHINGTON STATE NORMAL SCHOOL, BELLINGHAM, WASHINGTON Friday, May 9, 1930 I I Nortnalite HOBBY CLUBS MOTHER'S DAY NATIONAL PASTIME YE DAIRY BOB WALTERS Teaching Profession Augmented By Eight;/ Two Reappointments We read of the value of keeping the children in the grades and high school well occupied in some useful ventures and thus keeping away the thought and tendency toward crime, t h a t come with idle hands. In the big cities this is fairly well handled by special staffs of game instructors and so on. But in the smaller com-munites much of this is lacking. With the aid of some of the professors, in a short time.here at school, t h e students could work out various ideas for hobby clubs and other ideas that would prove useful for the future teacher in giving pupils something to occupy themselves with outside the classroom. W. S. N. S. We have listened to articles and orations on the "punk coffee at the dorm." Then on the other side we hear the statement that the best grade of coffee is being used, and used in the best way. Why not bring a representative up (he'll gladly come) from the coffee concern, and get him to check and see if the coffee is being made in a manner to get its true flavor into the drinker's cup? Then both can forever hold their peace. W. S. N. S. Miss Elizabeth Hopper of the Appointment Bureau has made several appointments during the past week. Vivian Tubbs will teach grades 5 to 6 in Chinook, Vera Lahti has been re-elected as teacher of the third and fourth grades in Springdale, and Clarence Ragan and Beatrice Sturgis will teach grades five to eight, and 1 to 4, respectively, in East Sunnyside. Louis Bassett has been re-elected as teacher of a rural school at Harstine, Bertha Herold will teach the fifth and sixth grades in O'Brien, and Harold Ruthruff will be the superintendent of the Glenoma school. Buryl Bailey has been appointed principal of the Pleasant Valley school and will also teach grades 5 to 8. Harold Rush is to teach grades 5 to 8. Harold .Rush is to teach English in the Junior high school at Port Townsend, Margaret Pender has grades 1 to 4 at the McRae school, and Irene Mc- Kenna will teach the sixth and seventh grades in Falls City. o INTEREST IN VODVIL SHOWN IN RESPONSE FROM ORGANIZATIONS Eleven Different Groups Sign for Tryouts in Annual Vodvil To Be Held On Next Thursday. Under Direction of Victor H. Hoppe the Play Cast Is Swinging Into the Gait of a Finished Show. Occasionally we stop to closely examine what is on the bulletin board, besides the official morning edition, and often find posted a lot of ballyhoo about some small college or nor-may school having a summer session. —-W. S. N. S. As far as a very large per cent of us are concerned, the ravings over t h e beauty of the section might just as well be saved, also the postage stamp and the nice glazed paper that it is printed on. Wouldn't it be nice to gaze upon a big printed sheet alongside of that blaring out, "the Normal nestled among the evergreens, with broad sloping terraces down to the smooth, shining waters of Paget Sound—come take in one of these summer sessions?" W. S. N. S. Sunday is Mother's Day.' Letc have a champion step out amongst us and start a campaign. One that would induce everyone at Norma] school to send at least a card home to the "sweetest one." And thereby have, a Normal 100-per-cent Mother's Day remembrance. W. S. N. S.-J— The National pastime is in season here at Normal. To you that have never heard of the Nation's favorite sport pastime, we mean baseball It might be a National drawing card, but we doubt that it rates very high here at Normal. During football season everyone moaned over the slackness in attendance at the opening game, which was a walkawaj practice affair. W. S. N. S. At the opening baseball game last Saturday, and openers usually draw big, the crowd was unsually small, even for Viking crowds. Maybe it is a National pastime, with "hot dogs, sody pop, cr-racker jack, and peanuts" on the side, in some of the big towns, but they seem to prefer either basketball or football here at Normal. W.

APPLICATIONS To consider the granting of life diplomas, the Life Diploma Committee has been holding .frequent meetings. Up to date two hundred and forty-five applications have been received. Several more meetings will be necessary in order to go over all the applications. _o MISS BUCHOLZ GRADUATES Miss Ruth Bucholz, former secretary of President Fisher, has completed a course at the University of California and is now graduating from the Senior class • of that institution. Miss Bucholz had been here for a number of years serving as secretary to both Dr. Nash and Dr. Waldo, former presidents of this school, as well as to President Fisher. The cast of th eDrama Club play is rapidly shaping up for the showing of Philip Barry's brilliant American comedy, "The Youngest," which will be given May 22 and 23. Miss Lou Griffin, playing the leading female role of Nancy, is giving a fine interpretation of the gay, young society girl adept at molding men to her will. Opposite her, playing the repressed, impressionable and boyish role of the Youngest, is Tom Durham, as Richard Winslow, who is putting real fervor and charm into the role. Quentin Quick, as Oliver Winslow, the pompous head of the family, square-toed, heavily moral and humorless, is making a real Babbit out of the part. Jean Philippi, as the cultured and conventional mother, is'very adequate in her concept of the wealthy woman, rather bewildered with the frankness and blunt-ness of the younger generation. Mrs. Lulu DuBois, bringing the production seasoned ability from many rich experiences in Little Theater, gets the catty, bored quality of the young society matron in an unusually delightful fashion. Lew Lovegren, playing Mark Winslow, adds to the entertainment a touch of negligent elegance typical of the ladies' man. Bernadine Brown, as the irrepressible college girl, is crisp, cool, droll, and modern. Charles Dewey, as Alan, the lawyer brother-in-law, suggests the serious, fine restrained, normal sort of fellow. Virginia Howell, playing a small role as maid, is doing important work as assistant director and business manager. In accordance with past practice, an entire new stage setting is being designed and built by the Play Production class. The setting is a draw-ingroom interior with a variety of color and light, luxurious appointments, and a formal, yet graceful design. Phild Plans Made; Will Cruise to Olga Philos a-yachting will go when they take their week-end trip next Saturday and Sunday, May 17 and 18, at Crescent Beach, on Orcas Island. They will sail Saturday noon on the yacht Thetis, and will return Sunday evening. While over there, the club will dance Saturday night at the hall, and there will be a climb up Mount Constitution for the "husky" Vikings. Club members may invite their friends, and there will be room for a few students who would like to take the trip. There is a list on the Philo bulletin and those wishing to go may sign on the paper. The cost of the trip, according to Al Brayas, president of the Philos, will be $2.50, but this includes all expenses, o Interest in the annual spring Viking Vodvil, which is to be held here on May 19, is rapidly awakening. Eleven organizations, including the faculty, the office force, both classes, and all the prominent clubs, have signified their intentions of presenting acts for the try-outs, and two independent acts have also signed up. The try-outs, in which the most entertaining and suitable acts for a finished vodvil are selected, will be held next Thursday, May 15. Bert Cole, manager of the Vodvil, is highly pleased with the way entrants are working on their acts. Since there is not much time before the try-outs, considerable effort will be necessary to insure the presentation of a well-finished performance. Bob Carboneau has been chosen as assistant manager and Franklin and Clarence Lock will act as stage managers. Mr. Cole wishes to announce that he and his assistant are ready with any information or advice that may be needed, and that the stage managers will give any required aid in stage presentation. Managers of the several acts must report to Mr. Cole the nature of their intended performance, in order that there may not be a number of similar offerings. o Sports Informal to be at Leopold Hotel Tomorrow evening the Men's Club will conclude its season of activity at the Crystal ballroom of the Hotel Leopold, with its sport informal. The dance is to be the spring review of collegiate attire. The ladies may choose sport dresses or informal frocks, either of which will be in vogue, while the men will wear light-colored trousers or knickers for the affair. The dancing will start promptly at 9 o'clock and continue until midnight. Ed Hunnicut, chairman of the dance committee, has been working to make this the dance of he season. o_ ARTISTS' COURSE UPHELD At a recent meeting of the Music Teachers' Association of Bellingham, the question of dropping the Musical Artists' course was discussed. The Association decided to uphold the concerts and appointed members to express their favorable opinion to President Fisher and the Women's Music Club. o EDITORS ANNOUNCE, BIG S U R P R I S E ON DISPLAY IN CO-OP —And this is the surprise announcement! When you're rushing around in the basement today—perhaps after some red tape in the Co-Op, pause a moment at the display window on the left —and look! "Gee, and it's a dollar and a half a pound!" "Bet there is a catch in it." No hitches, no catches, and no hooey—it's the best obtainable, and will be bestowed upon the holder of a "certain" Tri-Normal Track Program off the press by the 23rd of May. Yes, you have guessed it— a' $5.00 box of Canterbury Chocolates purchased not from a "district" dealer, but from a down-town firm which is interested in Normal affairs and is a Viking booster. Go down and give a glance! ANNUAL CLEANUP OF NORMAL CAMPUS TO START TUESDAY Majors Appointed to Get Rake and Broom Brigade Organized for Annual Clean-Up Campaign. E BEING HAD! Adele M. Jones Heads Committee In Charge of Arrangements for Commencement Exercises. PICNIC AT ROCKS Miss George was hostess to Miss Plympton and members of the Library Staff at a beach picnic held Saturday, at the "Rocks." The high spots of the party were the steaks which were broiled over an open fire and the biscuits which were baked by means of a reflector. The party left town in the afternoon and returned in the evening, walking to and from the South Side carline. HUNSAKER TO SPEAK To talk on the promotion of World Peace, J. J. Hunsacker will be in Bellingham from May 17 to 25. He will talk to various organizations, including the Normal International Relations Club. Mr. Hunsacker will be remembered by many students, as he spoke here last year for the same cause. ALUMNUS HONORED Jean Marquis, daughter of Dean Marquis, and a former student of Bellingham Normal, has received high honors at Stanford University, which she is now attending. Miss Marquis was awarded the Stanford Residence Scholarship and was elected treasurer of the Kappa Alpha Theta sorority. o NORMAL STUDENTS TO BE IN RECITAL Miss Edith Strange, teacher of piano, and member of the Normal School faculty, will present a group of her students in a recital at the Fine Arts Auditorium, Wednesday night, May 14. The following persons, whose names are familiar to almost every Normal student, will appear on the program: Jean Philippi, Chauncey Griffith, Vera Gin-nette, Muriel Myhre, Mary Miller, Betty Bellman, and Irene Wilson. This recital will feature ensembles, two pianos with four and eight hands, and many new and interesting combinations which have not been heard in Bellingham before. Normal students are cordially invited to attend. In observance of National Music week, which is a time set aside by the nation to be devoted ti gt; arousing interest in music, Miss Strange presented a group of pupils, many of them Normal students, in a pleasing recital last Wednesday in the Fine Arts Auditorium. Commencement plans are being made and a committee in charge has been appointed .which is comprised of Miss Adele Jones, chairman; Victor Hoppe, Herbert Fowler, Harold Smith,. L. A. Kibbe, Maude Slawson, Grace Moore, Marie Druse, Hazel Breakey, Ruth Weythman, Hazel Plympton, Mildred Jewell, and Alice Houston. Mr. Kibbe, Miss Breakey, and Mrs. Houston, representing the faculty, will assist the Alumni committee. The program for Commencement week will be as follows: Saturday, June 7—Girls' Field Day. Alumni banquet and dance at Edens Hall in evening. Sunday, June 8—Baccalaureate. Tuesday, June 10.—Class Day exercises. Victor Hoppe, adviser. Wednesday, June 11—Faculty reception. Thursday, June 12—Commencement Exercises. The music and decorations will be in charge of the music and art departments respectively, while the physical education department will have charge of the processional and recessional. o T. N. Press Service To^Start Very Soon A news service to be known as the Tri-Normal Press, under the initial letters of T. N. P., has been inaugurated among the three Normal schools of the State by the Northwest Viking. The plan is to exchange about six inches of copy weekly, with the Cheney Journal and the Ellensburg Campus Crier. This will enable the students to keep in touch with what is happening in the other schools and bring about a closer relationship between the three similar institutions. It is planned to condense the most important sports and other news articles each week for the other papers. This will be handled by James Pelley at Cheney, and Kermit Smith for The Viking, while the Ellensburg T. N. P. editor is yet unknown. o Former Normalite Starts Cab Company MANY ILL Miss Mead reports that Bob Walters has been ill with influenza. Ethel Adams has been ill with the flu, but is back in school. Ruth Shepherd has been confined to her room with a sore throat. A number of students have colds and sore throats. Miss Mead is unusually busy because Miss O'Malley is taking her vacation this month. o NEW MAP RECEIVED A new map of the United States has been recently received by the Normal school. According to Mr. T. F. Hunt, of the Social Scienc* Department, it is one of the latest and best of this type of maps on the market. The map, which fills a long-felt need, wu?£-be used in the teaching of geography.

H. Macgill Julia Bouck Hugh Lovegren ALL W O R K A N D N O P L A Y— Only five weeks more, and the quarter will be over These five weeks will be crowded ones for many students, burrowing through books and papers, conning facts, making grades and forgetting that these five weeks are offering the finest, brightest spring days of the year. Other students will be letting their studies go just a little bit to take advantage of then-last half-quarter in one of the most beautiful natural playgrounds in the United States. Too many Bellingham students, while not exactly bookworms too easily forget that they are living all the time they are m schoo "learning how to live," and pass up the finest opportunity that they will ever have to enjoy themselves. They become so immersed in encyclopedias, text books and old periodicals that they never play tennis or stroll around the campus, or eat at the Rocks, or climb Chuckanut, or take advantage of any of the other magnificent beauty spots which are in Normal's own backyard. If you have a test coming up that you can't look in the face, don't try to prepare for it by cramming all Sunday afternoon at the library. Buy half a pound of beeksteak, a nickel's worth of buns, a few pickles, some butter, and a bagful of fruit, and spend the afternoon lying in the sun and watching the bay swells break in over the Rocks. It will amaze you how your soul will expand and the test, if you still remember the test, will shrivel up to something like its true proportions. o F A C U L T Y CHALLENGE No doubt the Normal men and women students will accept the challenge of the Faculty people for the two baseball games to be played Campus Day. It would be rather pleasant to swing on a ball pitched by a hardbdiled instructor and knock it a quarter of a mile up Normal drive. CAMPUS DAY Next Tuesday will be Campus Day, with the whole school turned out to clean up the familiar environs. All the girls will be prettied up in pseudo-working garments, and all of the big boys with lots of strength will be chasing all of the little fellows around with paddles making them do all of the heavy work. There will be digging and picking up on a small scale, and loafing and laughing on a big scale, and a good time will be had by all. The dance should be gay and the sports exciting, and all-in-all the day should be one that we will remember a long, long time after we are all broken down, out in the field. V I K I N G VODVIL The Student body should get behind this Viking Vodvil. Of all the activities which the Normal people traditionally engage in, the Viking Vodvil can be made the most interesting. Once every year people with ideas, a sense of humor, and ability to entertain have a chance to display them, and to utilize their ingenuity in working out an evening of Vodvil entertainment. Last year the Vodvil was well received, and this year should be better, what with all of the new talent and a lot of the old. There should be enough material for a Vodvil show in the pep band alone. Every club in the school should be represented in the tryouts, as well as individual groups. With a good manager and plenty of time, the Vodvil this year should climb to a new high mark on the year's cajendar. (Newspaper Profs. Challenge Future Teachers toBall Game Following Clean-up ARTICLE I Today I had occasion to visit "Prexy's" office and I was greatly surprised, to say the least, to see Bever, Carver, and several other members of the faculty playing marbles on the floor. I joined in and in the course of the conversation I was able to gather that our chemist, Harry Pnilippi had discovered the fountain of youth. It had been a secret until I inadvertantly stumbled upon the result of it. Charlie Fisher says, "I feel younger every day, and you ought to see "Jimmie" Bever turn flipflops". "Bill" Marquis was overheard saying, "Our ball team will beat anything in the country, and we will challenge anybody to a game to be played anytime, anywhere, or anyhow, the sooner the quicker''. Vic Hoppe puts the challenge in a direct form and is seconded by "Eddie" Arntzen, "We„ja.re pointed for the campus day game," they say, "when the question of supremacy between the 444 men of the school and our rejuvenated selves will be settled. We want to say that this will be a battle of the century and that nothing will be spared to show our real ability". It appears that the feminine members of the faculty have stolen a march upon the more timid and self effacing members of the same sex who are mere students, and claim the "All Normal ChamDion-ship". Headed by the sparkling example of "Biff" Weythman, the self styled champions have issued a sweeping challenge to the women of the school. "Biff", in a personal interview, says: "Our sluggers, "Killer" Kangley, "Pastern" Piatt, "Sock-em" Shumway, will drive in enough runs so our pitcher "Jump Ball" Jewell can call in the rest of the players and still win. They will show for one day only, May 13, in case the flappers of the school accept the challenge. This is an unprecedented chance to see such stars "Dippy" Doty, "Highball" Horton, "Mak" McPherson, "Ozzy" Osborne, "U" Ullin, and "Sunshine" Sundquist. We hope that the girls accept, this challenge and put a crimp in the hopes and vanity of these all-stars, who have it all their own way in-more than one way now. HHHHHHHHHHHH ENNY'S RAINLESS 1 X KJ • • • • • • • HHHHHHHHHHHH Well, here 'are, studes. We've just finished figuring something out. You know, of course, how this student body has been criticized regarding its behavior in assemblies. Criticism has even descended to certain classes and certain individuals and, believe us, we have not escaped it. Remembering that the bloomin' faculty has done its bloomin' share in the matter, we were greatly astonished and greatly delighted when in the intermission of last Friday's assembly program, we counted seven faculty members as they nonchalantly arose from their seats, mingled with the crowds of bored students, and vanished. (Ah, but we do appreciate mathematics. Numbers are so impersonal and so damning.) But we were altogether confounded! We were absolutely stuck for a reason for the departure, too. So we did a lot of figuring. * * * At first we thought, well, maybe they, by golly, didn't want to stay and, accordingly left. But no, that thought didn't last long. That anyone should not care to listen to programs of such unapproachable quality as ours! Inconceivable! (And curiously, last Friday's concert was good.) * * * And we couldn't imagine that they lacked the common courtesy to sit quietly through even a poor program, merely for the gratification of the striving performers. Oh, my! We're sorry we ever thought of that. Gee! * •• gt; ••* And then we thought that they, well—that maybe they hadn't noticing their programs much, or something, and thought it was all over. But, then they had programs, all right; and gee! you know they should be able to tell when one piece stops and Another one starts. So that was all off. * •• gt; * Then we thought of several reasons. We figured that, well; maybe one had started, and then the next had followed, and so on. You know, the way sheep do. Or, maybe they had been sitting there, daring one another to leave and, gee! you know how faculty members would be on daring! But all that seemed farfetched, and we were still sitting and wondering, when—bing! It hit us like a stray bolt from, a passing airplane! The reason! * * * They were going out there to capture, reprove, and punish the students that went trotting Of course! And, now that we think of it, we have heard rum-off in that discourteous way! ors that any studeni leaving an assembly without a very good reason shall be punished by three slaps on the wrist with a bare corset steel! Ah, hah! Wc guess that'll teach 'em. And the next time we sec any faculty members leave, we\-v. going to listen carefuly and see if we can hear the agonized screamings of the unfortunatt-s who have been caught. And we won't think badly of the faculty any more. * * * Probably the head to this column doesn't apply to the sort of boloney we've been dishing out here, but we don't feel funny, this week. It's still by-golly "Benny's", all light, and therefore, it's "Brainless," without a doubt. And we've cut it into "Bits." Run along, now! o Normalites Earn In Devious Ways A„ „„ „„ „, „„ „„ „„ .„ „„ J - * - KU mi ui gt; i m — - t - a j, A large, yellow house stands well back from the street. Before it the lawn, with fresh green patching through the darker raggedness of winter's grass, slopes gently, then cuts down to the sidewalk. At one side of the house a holly tree bulges and bristles stiffly. Various small bushes are neatly arranged about the lawn and an awkward Scotch broom waves in loose fashion at one comer. An early morning sun glints coolly down across one corner of the house. The broom trembles very, very gently in the chill of a slight breeze. A group of book-laden girls, silent in the resentful gloom of early awakenings, come into sight; pass, and go, the clicking of their heels echoing lightly as they round the corner. Silence. More silence! Horrors!

Campus Day is one of the few days of the year when personal pleasure and school benefit are enjoyed simultaneously. This is your opportunity to show not only that you have pride in your campus, and an enthusiastic school spirit, but also that you understand the art'of co-operation. In keeping with former years, the students will be assigned to special groups, whose duties are toward beautifying the campus. Some call this day a holiday, but they merely mean it is a day free from classroom and library. To make the 1930 Campus Day a success, locate your crew, then work, eat, and play to your maximum capacity. TRACK TEAM TRAVELS TO C. P. S. Today we find our track squad participating under the Blue and White colors of the Normal school in the annual track meet with the College of Puget Sound. In the past years the College of Puget Sound has held the high end of the score when the last event was run off. The way things look at the present time, C. P. S. may repeat their feats of old. But there will be some fourteen or fifteen Viking men that are going to live true to the Viking spirit and give every bit of strength possible in order that the Belling-ham Normal team may come home successful. BIGGER AND BETTER VODVIL! Again the time approaches for that ever-looked-forward-to event of the year, the Viking Vodvil. For years past the students of old have looked forward and planned hard for this big, final climax of events of the regular school year. Every season marked improvement has been shown—but this year? Yes, we have kept up the standards by putting, on a, Vodvil of a high class of entertainment— one that every one enjoys and one that shows decided improvement over any that have been given in the past. This is only logical, though, for everything betters itself from year to year. The least we can do is to show our average amount of improvement to make the Vodvil a real success in all ways. VIKINGS MEET ST, MARTINS THERE It will just be an avenging nine Saturday, at St. Martins College, when the Norsemen horsehide maulers meet the St. Martins' diamond squad for the return game of this season's schedule. Just a week ago the Vikings took a little set-back when St. Martins came out with the long end of the score. Don't you wory, a true Viking is never whipped. If I have my ideas correct, those nine men and Coach "Pop" Gunn will come home with the bacon tied on their best bat. They can do it and they will do it. Did you ever see a Viking quit? FASTEST HUMANS FROM EAST Of all the events in track, public interest at the present time seems to have focused upon the hundred-yard dash, for the great George Stimson is running under the colors of the Ohio State University. Fighting bravely a field of six sprinters, all of whom had been clocked at :09.6 seconds or better, the Buckeye shattered the world record and acquired the unusual name of "the world's fastest human." Simpson stepped the century in :09.4 seconds during a season when Michigan's flash, Tolan, and Texas Christian's star dash man, Leland, were making the distance in :09.5. It appears from comparison of the past relay carnival that the East is burning up the track, especially in the sprints, while the West is holding the lead in the weight events. Such athletes as Rothert and Krenz of California, and Jessup, of the University of Washington, are upholding their part of the West. Another successful sprinter, Eddie Gordon, the lanky negro boy from the University of Iowa, promises to experience another big year. He is a natural born jumper, equally good in the high and broad jumps. Last June, Gordon took first in the broad jump at the National meet, with a leap of 24 feet 8% inches, to defeat Hill of Southern California, •who won the I. C. A. A. A. A. title m the broad jumps. VIKINGS 60 SOUTH TO AVENGE DEFEAT Normal Varsity, Twice Beaten, Are Determined to Beat Laccy Lads On Their Own Field. W. A. A. MEETING Tomorrow the Viking ball team travels south to meet the St. Martin College nine in an attempt to avenge the defeat handed them Saturday by the Lacey Lads. To date the Vikings have lost two ball games, the first to St. Martin's last Saturday. 5 to 2, and the second last Wednesday to College of Puget Sound, 10 to 8. Both games were close and the outcome was in doubt until the last inning. Tomorrow'? game with St. Martin's College should be a nip and tuck affair. Wednesday's game with C. P. S. was a hectic one in which some weird baseball was seen. Things were going along rather smoothly for the Vikings until the third inning when a bomb exploded and the C. P. S. boys scored five times. Iverson replaced Blankenship as pitcher at this point to stem the tide but the damage was done. In the next inning Graverock hit a terrific ball to the south end of the grandstand scoring a homerun and bringing in two runners ahead of him. From then on it was anybody's ball game, the Normal team several times catching up with the Tacoma lads, only to have the "Loggers" pull away in the next inning. Following are the lineups and the score: C. P. S.—Gynn, second base; Le Penske, left field; Plummer, center field; Carnero, right field; Tomko, third base; Grant, first base; Petti-bone, pitcher; Spadefore, short stop; Baker, catcher. Normal — H. McCleary, catcher; Thorsen, first base; Dixon, center field; Eacrett, short stop; Peder-' son. third base; Blankenship, pitcher and right field; Iverson, left field and pitcher; Graverock, right field and left field, Miller, second base. H. R. E. C. P. S 12 10 3 Normal 8 8 1 Saturday saw St. Martin's College emerge with a 5-to-3 victory over the Vikings in a game which was in doubt until the last inning when the College boys pushed over two tallies to put the game away. Up until that time the Vikings were hold ing their own and looked like they might win the game. Both teams played good ball, the margin of victory being in the ability of the St. Martin team to make their hits count. Blankenship for the Normal and Costa for St. Martin's did the pitching, both holding their opponents to but a few hits. Sigrid Wiberg Made Head of the W. A. A.

The girls left in cars early in the morning, and arrived in Seattle in time for registration at 10 o'clock. Representatives were divided into color groups, so that on each team there would be members of the different schools. Prom 11 to 12 a regulation swimming meet was run off each one of the color groups entering a team. Although many of the girls did not swim well, it was thought valuable experience for them to see how a swimming meet was carried out. A luncheon was served to the schools at the Commons, and several talks and a short program vieve given afterwards. Ruth Sammons, president of W. A. A., spoke for Bellingham. Afternoon Sports Offered In the afternoon, volleyball, baseball and basketball were played, and at 3:30 o'clock a program of natural dancing and clogging was given by students of the University. Tea was served later by women of the college and at five o'clock the girls left for home. The purple group, which had three Bellingham members: Katherine Zeran, Marjorie Coventon and Margaret Sater on its team, won the greatest number of points. Schools that participated in the sports' day were Bellingham and Ellensburg Normals, College of Puget Sound, and Mount Vernon and Centralia Junior Colleges. About fifty girls were there from the outside schools, and the teams were enlarged by several University girls on each group. • . o :' GOLF PROVES POPULAR WITH GREAT NUMBER ..

Nice that it's extemporaneous — if there'd been thought connected we n't have got it. A few m o n t h s ago there arose a very timely discussion in faculty meeting over the possibility of holding school on Saturdays and Sundays next summer. According to Dr. L. P. Bond, enthusiastic fisherman, this would leave more fish to be caught per person in the rivers on Mondays and Tuesdays, when the weekly rest period would be held. Another convenience to be instituted upon the inauguration of the new system would be that students on hikes on Mondays and Tuesdays would not be such an object of curiosity to the crowd common to the favorite hiking haunts on the ordinary week-ends. A resolution was formed and unanimously passed. KING Hiking Students Leave! THE VIKINGS Winding up a quarter's activities in the hiking field .about 350 students will leave tomorrow for the wide open Spaces. The group, which is represented by a few students and most of the faculty will meet on the knol at 4:30 Saturday morning, August 24; With Dean James Bever in the lead, the hikers will leave on foot for Eliza island where a reception will be held for President Fisher who has just returned from Olympia. There is no prict^ attached to the outing, so everyone is urged to come and have a good time by all, since, the authorities have granted surf board^ for 150 extra people. Providing that some of the tenderfoots desire to ride home on the street car bring your own street car. Because of the uniqueness of the trip and the idea of no price attached, i will rain tomorrow. would Coming as a complete surprise to the students of Bellingham State Normal school and Whatcom High school respectively, was the announcement that the over-population of the last-named hall of learning necessitates the exchange of buildings for the forth-comiming and succeeding school years. Why Love Your Fellow Men? P f ft Prom September 1 on, Whatcom High school will take up on the Normal grounds and in the Nrmal buildings. All membera of the Normal school student body will attend classes in the building now known as Whatcom High school. "Prexy" Chuck Fisher made the following statement regarding this change, "This is a change I hav been looking forward to for a long time. I'm not so good at hiking as I used to be, and there are too many stairs to climb in the old Normal building." The principal of Whatcom High school, Ernest F. Wells, is quoted as being "tickled pink" with the prospect of climbing the countless stairs in the Normal building. "I hear it makes the ankles slim," he winked. A Poem by James Gordon Barn-hart and Harry Earl Goheen. The night falls softly spreading velvety wings over the world. The winds blow whisperingly through the trees; Carrying sweet messages of love, It soughs far above me As I stand lonely with ghosts of "dead dreams In my arms. NOW DON'T YOU THINK WE SHOULDN'T CELEBRATE? At the most colorful and brilliant spectacle of the century, the long-wished- for new physical education building was dedicated at the Western Washington College of Education for Technical Knowledge in the World of the Pedagogue. Aged ,and endeared in the eyes of his students, President A. B. Seedye was quite the man of the hour. It was only through his ceaseless and untiring efforts and pressure upon the state legislature that funds for the historic building were obtained. Original plans which were started by President Seedye more than fifty years ago, back- in 1934, have been carried; out td a "T in the new building, except in the site plans. Is is said that where the new building stands was the location of a magnificent library consisting of more than 50,000 volumes. Toi date, no records have found to verify the rumors. C ALE NDAR Friday, November 32— 11:00—Surprise! ! ! Saturday, July 15— 4:30 a. m. — Bring your own streetcar. Prexy reception. Voices of remembered loves haunt me with poignant remembrances And my soul stretches out wraithlike arms toward the cold moon. It is fall and Love is dead! The main feature of the building is the georgeous swimming pool occupying the entire upper floor of the structure. Master of ceremonies was the grandson of a former student body president, who is said to have been president at the time the building was first hoped for.

The stage was a scene of gaiety with all the bright colors that could be borrowed from the Art department, and the cute toy animals borrowed from the girls of Edens hall. The immortal "Sonny Boy" was rendered by L. A. "Lanny Ross" Kibbie (this was the only serious number on the program). The hcarming ballet, "Afternoon of a Faun" was danced in delicious pink costume of flaring skirts and tight bodice, by "Dapper Jimmie" Bever, whose twinkling little feet twinkled. One of the most popular number was the recitation "I Picked a Lemon in the Garden of Love" by Eddie "Creased Pants" Arntzeh. Some trick bicycle riding was performed to the loud applause of the enthusiastic audience by the trimly shirted and shortd popular team Vicki "Happe" Hoppe and Mazie-Zoe (Mamie-ot) Wilson. The culmination of the act was culminated when Mabie-Zoe hung by one toe from the handle-bars, while Vicki peddled with his ears with his fingers crossed, and lit a cigarette with his toes. "Believe it or not," quoth Artie, "I'm d—d tired a' goin' ta this here dump when they ain't none a' that ther hot stuff goin' around. The idea of this here program is ta snap things up a little in this here Normal school and make all youse studes realize that this^here school has still got some life in it. -*-*-$? %%!"

Oh, yes you have—haven't you spent an hour talking to someone who when you have finished says, "Applesauce" and walks away? Well, that isn't the kind I am going to-tell you about today. This kind is really and truly thrill and different. The only apple used is your own teeny weeny Adam's apple! Isn't that just too poof-poof? First bring in a plank and nail it securely to the living room floor, then go to the kitchen and peek around the corner and see it is still there. (Is the plank still there?) Bend over sinky so your Adam's apple is directly over cuppy. Pick up your tootsies and turn around two or three times (keep that apple \ directly over cuppy!) When you have finished y«u; will find (surprise!) a little liquid in:;;,the cuppy. Pour over the plank, if it is still there and lo and behold—there is your own little apple cobbler! If you still feel the same and don't get too many splinters eating it, just write in to Aunt Tizzie and she'll have another goody all ready for you. o •— ©literate 3 42 «3 si o» bo fl 2 «H 3 Si +3 Si «3 We never know just why we like candy until we go for a few days without it.

And so, fully aware that: "Sport writers are born, not maids"—this past season, as have all the other seasons, probably, is best closed with a complete rehashing. The season opened with a bang. Most qf the games were ended that way, too—with allowances for the times that the gun stuck. Softball immediately came into prominence; •'„•. . . the Skylarks beat the Nightingales, after which game Coach Carver was heard to remark that he thought it was a "birdy good game". Basketball also came in for its share of importance. During the winter season, games were all held at Whatcom High school, but with the arrival of summer, it was decided to hold them summer else, so Fairhaven High came for its share of rooters (both of them). Everybody and Bill Prender turned out for the team, and from the mob, five men were selected who could play the game, and even won one, or two, or maybe more. This has really been a successful season. (Kindly note that nowhere in this column is mention made that Norman Bright won a record— THAT has never happened in any previous issue). There were times when it looked as though Lewie Shaffer might have to call on Sam Carver for some aid in running the men's PE Dept., but the best men always win—(and what's this got to do with a. wedding?)

Carswell Whiffle-tree discusses "The Infliction of Corporal Punishment upon the Young; of Homo Sapiens". This prominent educator bewails the fact that little research is- being carried on in his particular field and that no improved techniques have been introduced within the last fifty years. Rather has there been an actual decline in the utilization of this device for securing pupil attention. "Well do I remember", states the author, "how, when I was a boy, my teacher used to hall, me up before the class and lustily thump my but- I tocks with a supple birch switch. Nowadays a good many children j wouldn't know a birch tree if they saw one'.. Dr. Whiffletree believes every school yard should have its birch tree. But this is only one of the reforms he advocates. "When I was .a boy we used to trudge miles to school through the snowdrifts. It was probably the experience of overcoming such hardships which was responsible : for my later successes. If children underwent such experiences today they would develop stronger characters and not fall victims to Hummistic Whopper Gander". He is in favor of producing artificial snowstorms two or three times a year in every school district. "If they can do it in Hollywood to make a silly picture, why not other places, as a means to preserve the morale of our schoolchildren?" he asks. At the present time Professor Whiffletree is working on an invention which he thinks will revolutionize the profession. This is an automatic whipping machine. The culprit is strapped on a small platform and a series of paddles revolve, striking the flanks smartly The installation of his device will, Whiffletree feels, greatly discourage PACIFIC COAST PAPER MILLS Bellingham, Washington classroom coups d'etat.

Mr. A. M. S. C. R. A.'s subject was "The relationship of African Zulus to the Dionne quintuplets, if any". Mr. Amscra was very enthusiastic about his subject, and as he opened his address, he remarked: "African Zulus are African Zulus", which came is quite a surprise to the stu-dent body, who probably had never thought of it before! "I must say", he went on, "that the Dionne quintuplets are French- Canadian. Does that mean anything to you?" At this point the speaker removed his glasses, and ran his hand through his hair, in such manner as to resemble an African Zulu. The speaker then told how there are 167,000,000,000 African Zulus, and only five quintuplets, all belonging to the same family. The quintuplets, not the Africans. As Mr. Amscra replaced his glasses, combed his hair, and blew his nose quite vehemently until his face became quite purple, the audience booed. They wanted to hear more about the Dionnes, but the speaker continued: "My friends, can't you see, that if there are 177,000,000,000 Africans, and only five of the quintuplets that nobody cares anyway?" With this as a final statement, Mr. Amscra departed from the platform via his roller skates, which he always takes with him. And so concludes another assembly, thank goodness! Now to run and eat!

Each tired head resting peacefully on two chubby, dimpled arms. While they're resting I'll explain this to you. You see us school teachers aren't particularly interested in athletics—but I must admit there's nothing I like better than a good, fast game of "Old Maid". There's something so exhilirating about it, don't you think? But to continue, we took over the WAA, calling it the "WE Aren't Adults" club. We feel that in this club we are fulfilling a need long felt in this school. Also we're affording a number of students with good, wholesome recreation. Now our rest period is over. We must continue our business meeting. Let's all wake up now and tie our napkins carefully under our chins. Lizzie, you may pass the crackers. Sadie, get the bottles of milk. There.

Pink hair ribbons in this corner playing "Clap, Clap, Curtsey", blues in that digging in the sand pile, greens in the other room playing "Pussy Wants a Corner". Not too much noise please! Don't you really think this is a wonderful thing we're doing for these students? Watch the roses come back into those pale cheeks as they forget all their cares—term papers, notebooks, themes and finals, and live again their carefree childhods. Time to stop now.

Oh, Doris, don't forget your doll buggy and your tin dishes. As the last student walked out, her little red wagon piled high with books, notebooks, outlines, etc., she turned and grasping the president's hand fervently she said in a hoarse voice, "You'll never know how much you've done for me". Brushing a tear from her eye the president turned to me and said, "It's just the little things like that that make life worthwhile". It has been whispered that the WAA is going to nominate Shirley Temple to run in the 1936 presi-? dential campaign. Will she have a chance against Baby Leroy? Wait and SEE!!!! The actors made a clean sweep of a very dusty old folio in a rendition of that soon to be immortal at the bookworm club last Saturday at eleven. The Library was the scene of festivities, All the Desks were; fohoved back to one end of the Main Reading Room. I'll never forget the sight. But of course you're interested in the play. You should have seen it. ' ' - ' • The name of the play "The rise and fall of Henery Ford", takes me back to my boyhood and about forty-minutes. It was very enjoyable. And had! very fevorable acclaim by the audience. There was noise that•; amounted to a furore back of me when the heroin fell into the soup and the scenery tipped over. I was asked by another critic the following question and I thought that my following would like to hear it. She asked in substance the following, "Did the motions that the hero made indicate emotion or Pleas?" I or course replied, "It was something here inside—-But frankly according to the script there are no motions made in any direction throughout the play that would indicate hives. Please pardon the levity, I am of course nothing like this in real life. In the rising action we see Henery Ford (Landie Oberlots) at 4:30 in the grey passage of dawn thumbing through his bank book. He leaps to his feat. Then later after his dawning of a swimming suit to please some of the prudish members of the elite-such things never bother me, I just tap my forehead with a tentative finger and hum a bar of soap—he stands to his feet and reaches for a towel on the edge of the tub that's where the falling action begins and he lands on the floor in the interim Landie in his performance reminded me of Kate Smith and Paganin-me at their greatest. The dash and the spirit and the expitives of the whole supporting cast cuppled with the homley, but spicey settings, combined with really up to he minute philosophy, and that too coupled with a couple of other things which include reviews of the private life of royalty combined to make the play quite good.

' • • ' ' " • * •' * - . * ' . • ' • • ' _ ." There is a certain rival "cqlyum-ist" of ours who struts his stuff on one of the middle pages of this sheet about once a week. We don't imagine many read his "colyum," but really, sometimes, it is quite clever. We call it the "Thermqmeter,"Be-cause of its mercurial temperament. One week it is struggling about in the depths of philosophy and Wall Street, and thenext impinged upon the brittle peak of personal "smot- "• •.* . • * . •• • s ^cracks." ' • • . • * ' " * ' * ' ' Now this rival has been cast- : tag subtle—more, or less—aspersions upon our integrity and journalistic ability. Of course,, we regard such attempts as puerile and are ignoring'them, but just the same, we hope that no one ever uncorks the bottle. Its contents might turn out to be the kind that fizz all away and then the staff of The Viking '' would have to print some testimonials from the faculty of certain assembly addresses in order to fill up space. . * • ' . * • • * •• It^was nice toTh^e Tuesday's:aat-sembly on Wednesdayfor a change.'

Of course, you just couldn't walk in late, so the best thing to do in a case like that is to go play tennis. * • * " . * A friend of ours (we always get into trouble when we start that way, but really, this is an-authentic friend, this time) was tearing his hair-over some of the education courses he was struggling to extract a certain grade from. "Doggone these education tejachers who talk methods and n e w type examsand then go ahead and bust all the rules they teach a fellow and keep on giving tests that you just haven't got a chance on even if you know the stuff." * '• • * • • ' * . .

C . Upshall and Dr. Harry' Masters Announce Plan wof Research Bureau to Help Teachers. To Study Research Problems. WDLL CRITICIZE TESTS Librarians Visit At ~ Biological Station That the Bureau of Research of the Bellingham Normal school has adopted a program which will make it possible for teachers to receive aid and information concerning testing programs and the interpretation pf test results was " announced this week by brs. C. C. Upshall ;and Harry Masters in the following statement: The Bureau of Research has recently extended its service. It has been decided that the Bureau should offer certain types of service to public school people of the state, especially the graduates of Bellingham State Normal school. We are particularly anxious to call the attention of summer school students to this service which is now available. The Bureau will be glad to answer questions concerning the setting up of testing programs and the selection of proper tests to use for a given purpose, to aid in the interpretation of the results of a testing program, and to help in defining and carrying through research problems. Use of Tests Increased Teachers are constantly making greater and more varied use of the teacher-made objective test. Such tests to be worthwhile, must he properly constructed and their results properly interpreted. A number of teachers are also interested in setting up some ^experiments in their classrooms.. ,The Bureau is quite willing to. offer suggestions and. criticize experimental set-ups or any test material which teachers wish to send in. ^ The Bureau of Research is happy to extend this service to the teachers in the public schools and hopes that Tnany of the teachers now in Misses Esther Stajhnann, Pearl Reese^ and Lillian George, from the library staff took a boat trip to Friday Harbor last Sunday, to visit the biological station. They met Miss Leone Sundquist, instructor at, the station, who showed them some clams, devilfish, seaurchins and other fishes which the instructors and students were conducting experiments with. The party returned to Bellingham a t 8:30 o'clock in the evening. HIKERS TO SCALE BAKER TOMORROW Forty Normal Hikers to Make the Stiff Climb to Top of Mpunt Baker; Trip Is Climax. INDIAN INTERPRETER TO APPEAR TUESDAY IN VOCAL CONCERT Miss Louise Merrill-Cooper, Mezzo- Sopraho, to Be Heard in Pro-gram of Indian Music; Prominent Composer Accompanists; NATHAN STEWART FRIDAY summer school will avail themselves of this, opportunity. —', .;.. o———- . ... Photography Class Enjoys Tea Party Headed by the general hiking staff, some-forty students left the campus early this morning' for the annual Mount Baker climbs the trip to Glacier, where the hike commences, being made by bus. The first day will be spent in reaching Kulshan cabin which' is ten miles up the trail. Early Saturday morning the climb of Mount Baker from the snowline to the top will be made. The tired hikers I probably will return to Bellingham' late Sunday afternoon, after descending from the Cabin to Glacier in the morning. , . Climax of Season All the previous* hikes have* been made with the", ultimate, goal of training the hikers for the Mount Baker climb, and as a result this trip can be called the climax of the outing seasdn. Last week-end L. A. Kibbe made the trip up Mount Baker and returned with the information that conditions on the slopes of the mountain were ideal for the climb, there being enough soft snow to cover up the icespots. Mr. Kibbe; and his son, Merle, reached the top before noon, so it is the. opinion of those concerned with this trip that the ascent will be easy. According to Prof. E. A. Bond, Tuesday, July 22, Miss Louise Merrill-Cooper; mezzo-soprano, and Robert Elmer Smith, author-composer, will present a program of Indian music in assembly. Miss Cooper'is a singer-interpreter of Indian music and art.i She has studied music, in Paris and has won distinction as an opera, oratorio and concert singer. Miss^ Cooper is one of America's exponents of Indian music and lore. She has been adopted by the Northwest Federation of Indians who have given her the name of Princess Scha-qu-guath, meaning "power to live forever," and by this name she is generally known. Miss Cooper is. also a member of the National Advisory Council for the Camp Fire Girls, in their study of the American Indian. Miss Cooper originally followed an operatic career, but,- becoming interested in Indian ceremonial songs in costume, she introduced these songs into her programs. Accompanist Composes Mr. Robert Elmer Smith, the California composer, has in a comparatively short time placed to his credit a surprisingly large -and versatile number of compositions, noted for their ^exquisite beauty, marvelous, simplicity, and significant charm.' Dr. Irving E. Miller' i ^Greeley, Colorado Word has recently been received to the effect that Dr.v Miller and family wtitf are touring the Middle Western states this summer were at Greeleyv Colorado, over the Fourth, having finished a tour of Yellowstone National Park. Dr. Miller, before. coming to this school was dean of the department of education at Greeley State Normal School.

' *•. With the great technique which has been devloped in the reproduction of paintings through various printing processes, any school district, working1 even under the narrowest budget, could easily acquire, sufficient copies of the various masters to give the grammar school children an adequate .background in Art. By the time they arrived at our Normal school they 'wbukT not'have to grope about to appreciate the various exhibits which are found Here, and to get real enjoyment from them. .'.•/•. i ; In the matter of music, a good phonograph and a wise selection of records; Worked in connection With an intelligent local music program, Would 'solve the music appreciation problem'which is felt in many places besides our Normal assemblies.

" . And then Nellie arrived upon the scene, as her hero, "Hell-fire" slipped from fame. But Nellie had been around, and as the cool bartender's blood washed against "Hell-fire's" face, she handed him a current copy of a magazine. Forced Conclusion . And now we come to the conclusion of the Zero Tub episode, or was it The Blow-Out of The Midnight Oil?- At any event "Hell-fire" Pete was a man like, you or me until he read of the.correspondence course in the Western Narrative Magazine. As he rsat down to the piano a titter of laughter was heard and Nellie, the beautiful cloak-model, hid her face in "shame—or was it in her arm? Nevertheless, "Hell-fire" " was the hero of the moment ai'he finished the Rhapsody in Blue with a click, clickrclick! With a majestic wave of his hand he pressed a button and rewound the sheet music, as Arthur Hurry asked him for a personal story of the incident.

ATTENTION TEACHERS OF ADOLESCENT YOUTH From Ten to Sixteen Years We do not mean to make our mflhneir of speaking unnecessarily esoteric, but the innate potentialities of the question under consideration demands that the patient have sudorific effusions during the "Dobbins' Treatment!" '..'. In order that we may have a positive correlation between the I. Q. and the estimate of a homogeneous group, dei gratia, we must consider chronologically and verbatim, the behavioristic tendencies, the environmental factors and modifiability of instinctive tendencies ^as presented physiologically, psychologically, and anthropologically by the .following pathological treatments of the "piece de resistances'. First, Munsterberg and Kraepelin's incomparable and incomprehensible . "Treatment of Psychiatry."

Last week'i made the statement in this column that one dollar out of every two hundred.. in the United States was spent oh golf. However, I was. Slightly wrong, as only one dollar but of every two thousand is spent on golf. My figuring was slightly off—I guess it must be heredity! At any event "why mar a good story with the truth? Ed Hannah and _ Vernon Broad-bent, for several seasons top men at the Normal a few years ago, teamed to win from Hedger and Houghton, finalists in last year's tournament. Hedger and his partner broke through on the second set with beautifully placed drives, which netted them the set, 6-4. Hannah did much to regain the lead and finally to win with many well-placed shots from the net, which baffled the opposition. The final score was 6-1, 3-6, 6-4. Thai and Rork, former lettermen, won two easy sets' from Wu and Moy, 6-2, 6-1. Bond and Carr won a three-set match from Kienast arid Boynton, 6-4, 4-6, 6-4 and two days later defeated Leach and Prendergast, 8-6, 6-4 to enter the semifinals. Bob and Chuck Fisher won two straight sets from Parker and Lockhart, 6-4, 9-7. Craw Upsets Dope Providing, one of the major upsets in the city tennis tournament, Evelyn Craw chopped, cut and sliced a decisive victory over Alice Wamp-ler, last year's woman's singles champion, 6-2, 6-4; This places Evelyn Craw in the. semi-finals, where she meets the winner of the Chase- McKelvey match, for the finals. In the lower half of the women's singles, Bernice Johnson defeated Ciss-na, 0-6, 6-4, 6-3, for the quarter finals and when Seward defaulted she advanced to the semi-finals. Beatrice Johnson beat Johanson, 6-2, 6-8, 6-2. ' " ' • • ;. Thai Tumbles to Wu Wu, with deadly accuracy and precision with, his forehand drive, defeated Myer Thai, last year's runner up, in three sets, 6-4, 4-6, 6-4. Wu; made one backhand drive during the entire match. To offset a weak backhand he took everything on his forehand and covered the court so well that his opponent could not break through. The next evening Wu beat Chuck Fisher, 6-2, 6-2. Rork defeated Boynton, 6-0, 6-0, and Moy 6-0, 6-0 to enter the quarter finals against Wu. Bob Fisher took a two-set match from Bond, 6-1, 6-3. Carr beat Prendergast two out of three sets in a blistering sun to take the match 6-1, 4r6, 6^3. Leach, who placed in three sports, tennis, track and baseball, one spring quarter while at this school, meets Hannah for the quarter finals. Normal Students Entered In the mixed doubles,, Fisher and Chase defeated Brown and Warm, 6-3, 6-2. Hedger and Johnson took two sets from Chuck Fisher and Cissna, 6-4, 6-4, to enter the finals against Fisher and Chase. Meyer Thai arid Johnson cut through the fast placing and driving of Alice Wampler, who paired with Morris Thai, to take the match, 6-2, 5-7, 6-3. Prendergast and Craw plugged through three sets to win a match from Bond and Morse, 6-3, 1-6, 6-1. This entitles them to play Johnson and TJiai for the finals. Former tennis players from this school are prominent in the tournament this year. All of the players remaining in the doubles event have gone to this school at one time or. another.; i n the mixed j^ioubles?

In a foursome, consisting of Kelly, Jackson, ; Hurinicutt, and Jones, two challenges were played off. Jackson and Kelly found themselves tied after nine tiolesf so played three extra to decide the winner. Jackson finally came thru on the last hole, with a par three to win the match. The score the first round was 53-53. The extra three holes ended with a total number of strokes of 16-19. Hun-nicutt kept Jones down the ladder by banging out an even 50 on bis card, taking the. match 50-54. All four men have the same average score, so handicaps were not conceded to anyone. In the other match last week Bright and Reeves slammed the white pellet around for 18 holes. Bright took the first round by a score of 51-54, while Reeves took the second by a score of 52-53. The entire play gave Bright a two-stroke lead and the match. Several challenges have been posted so more lively play is expected N in the next, few weeks.

A people forgetting the welfare of its children has cut educational appropriation from 33% million dollars in 1930 to 21% million dollars in 1933. This reduction, more than 35 per cent, will have inevitably disastrous consequences. On the school cost basis of 1931, current appropriations will enable schools to remain open only until the second week in January. The reduced cost basis of last year will prolong the term only until the third week of February. The loss of potential power accrued to the state by the education of its children will be tremendous. The collapse of the school system will without a doubt mean the collapse of other democratic institutions. Winter Budget Completed By Control Board Candy And Ice Cream Are On Cash Basis At School Store Put Survey by Northwest Viking Shows Candidates Nominated by Students Have Varied Interests in Affairs When a survey of the successful nominees was made, it was discover-plays. At present she is managing editor of the Viking. Her other main Richardson and Millikan Win Prexy Primary Nominations; Hartley and Smith are Choice Co-op Gets Register Recreational Program Discussed At Board Meeting Further reduction of the already minute salaries of teachers is assured unless the legislature chooses to devise means of providing revenue. Last year twenty-two teachers received less than three hundred dollars for the year's servces. Fifteen of these received less than two hundred dollars. Eleven hundred and thirty-nine teachers received less than the extinct NRA minimum for 52 weeks under the President's agreement. 2,342 teachers receive less than the lowest paid vendor in a state liquor store. The training for state liquor vendors is aptly .described by H. L. Mencken, who once asked one of them the nature of a dry wine. That worthy replied, "One that isn't wettish." Winter quarter's budget of student fees was presented and accepted by the Board of Control at their regular meeting held last Wednesday afternoon. Men's athletics was given $3 per student ticket, while the social fund and Northwest Viking received $1, and women's athletics and the division of drama received $.25. The budget was figured on an enrollment of 630 full-credit students. Special students are not required to purchase activities tickets. Dr. A. C. Hicks presented to the board a report of the recreational program committee. The program was discussed by the board members, and the secretary was instructed to order equipment v/hich was suggested as necessary by the committee. Final action of the board will be taken at next week's meeting. Charges Limited To take effect immediately was the motion which permits no students to put candy or ice-cream purchases on their Co-op bill. The board also authorized the purchase of a suitable cash register to replace the inadequate register now in use. Rec hour tryouts of orchestras were postponed one week. Students will vote on February 1 which orchestra they wish to play for the remainder of the quarter. A union orchestra will play this afternoon.

Since coming to Normal, Richardson has had prominent positions. Last year he was editor of the Klipsun, and is at present secretary of the Board of Control. He works part time at the Co-op. Gordon Millikan, the other successful nominee, is now in his fifth quarter at Normal. He comes from Pateros, Washington. Millikan has become prominently associated with clubs and he is now president of the Social Science club, and vice president of the Inter-club council. Vice-President A contribution of Fairhaven is Nancy Jane Smith, candidate for vice-president. This is Miss Smith's fifth quarter at school, and since coming, she has been in several and studying. He is employed at the Normal library. Four-Quarter Representative Although born in Norway, Oscar Svarlien was graduated from Fair-haven high school. This is his fifth quarter, and he is employed under the FERA. His main hobby is hiking. The WAA candidate, Agnes Martin, comes to us from Canada. She is reputed to be an excellent swimmer and tennis player. Four-Quarter Representative Blanche Pearce, who comes from Burlington, is another "foreigner", for she was born in England. She is a second-quarter sophomore, and is a candidate of the YWCA. Born in Red Deer, Alberta, Louise Schulz came to this country and was graduated from Whatcom high school. This is Miss Scl;ulz's eighth quarter.

Shakespearean Drama Offered "Twelfth Night" To Be Presented As Quarterly Production Of Drama Club Council Will Discuss Luncheons, Conflicts; New Ruling Effective Demagogues may blat about "teachers' ideals of social service, not salary," but what self-respecting human is willing to train three years to enter a profession which pays less than twenty-five dollars a month? "Big fleas have little fleas and ministers have secretaries." Louis Shaffer, dynamic wart on the incumbent board's proboscis, wants to be little flea to the next Board of Control. Elect him, new board, but first stretch a piece of adhesive tape tightly from his nose to his chin. Luncheons for assembly speakers and conflicts in club calendars are the issues to be discussed at the Inter-Club council meeting January 30. Conflicts have resulted in club calendars because of the basketball schedule. These conflicts may necessitate minor changes in the calendars. It has been recently decided by the council that if the representative of a club misss two successive meetings that club will no longer remain approved. o — Moffett To Present Alkisiah Club History With all the political criticism of the expense for the annual and all the dirty slaps at the editor of that publication, no one has as yet suggested a means whereby its expense to the students might be reduced. May we, while gently hinting at the inanity of intending to do a thing without knowing how, suggest a remedy for the much criticised ills? Give the business manager something to do other than signing contracts and requisitions. Devote a section at the back of the annual to advertising. Bellingham merchants are wild to give themselves publicity there. By giving them what they want the cost to the students might be reduced to little over one dollar. On next Monday evening, the Alkisiah club will hold its regular meeting in the club room of Edens hall. The gathering will be in the nature of a review of the history of the club, which is the oldest organization of its kind in this school. The feature of Monday night's meeting will be an address by Miss Mildred Moffett, who will speak on the subject, "The History of the Traditions of Alkisiah". Frisby Fresk has an unusual way of requestng food at the dorm. Passing his plate, he says: "Will you potato me, please?" "Will you meat me, please?" "Will you carrot me, please?" ' B u t - . _ \ ; ' / . . : " ' '!,'.•;.'' ;'. V'':"' "Will you pour me a glass of milk, please?" Normal Carpenter Shop Is Completely Demolished Damages amounting to approximately $2,000 were counted at the Normal school late Monday night. The warming weather melted the snow, dislodging rocks which were sent crashing down Sehome onto the carpenter shop, which is located at the foot of the hill. The building which is comparatively new was completely destroyed. Work has been started towards clearing up the ruins, as there are a few things worth salvaging. gt;: Investigations have been made as to the possibilities of another slide so that measures may be taken to prevent another costly disaster. Building To Be Erected Of the $218,500, $200,000 will be used for the long-dreamed-of physical education building. The $18,- 500, if obtained, will be used for a new roof on the main building, and for work on the new athletic field. This recommendation was made with the proviso that state and federal building money is available. President C. H. Fisher expressed satisfaction over the governor's two-year appropriation recommendation. This amount is for salaries, wages, and operations. The recommendation was about $40,000 less than the board asked, but it is about $85,000 more than was allowed for the present biennium. o Mc Ilvain Prefers Pottery to Paintings Southwestern Indianfc have recently been called the real pioneers in art. In California, Arizona, and Nevada many cliffs and rocks are painted with surrealistic paintings done with special oils. The Indians believe these pictures to be done by "spirit painters", but scientists today accredit this super-natural work to the nightly visits of the medicine man. "Since these pictures have, little logic and no plan of construction, they have little value in real art," states Miss Dorothy Mcllvain. art instructor. "Personally, I admire Indian pottery and much of then-talent, but surrealistic painting has no meaning to me." o New Student Officials May Expect Initiation Following its usual custom, the Board of Control will give a banquet for its members sometime later in the quarter. Christine Albers will be in charge of the affair, which will be held at a down town hotel. Each quarter, in the past, the board has been in the habit of holding some sort of social function honoring the members of that body, and this quarter, it will honor not only the old members, but the new ones as well, and will probably take I the form of an initiation for them. By V. H. Hoppe There are four reasons why the department of Drama should produce "Twelveth Night", or any Shakespearean play. The first is because Hollywood doesn't. Practically all modern plays are being screened by the movies and amateurs cannot produce until the screen version is released. The second reason is that Shakespeare should be kept alive by the schools. The best method of appreciating Shakespeare is to enact his plays. Thirdly, "the play's the thing" after all. These old plays are still vital ---------- Northwest Viking - 1935 January 25 - Page 2 ---------- WASHINGTON STATE NORMAL SCHOOL, BELLINGHAM.

Relaxation? Here's How Next week we will probably have our first chance to enter into and pass judgment on the new recreational program. The program, drawn up by the recreational committee, ofters an excellent chance for students to become interested in activities which may help them in their teaching field. The basic idea of the program, as explained by the backers when they introduced it before the Board of Control last quarter is simple. It is to round out the social life of those students in school who do not dance Previous to this time no recreational program has been offered non-dancers, although there have occasionally been a few bridge tables set up in one corner of the dance floor. However it was far more conspicuous for a few to play bridge all evening than to stay away entirely. The class parties are all dance affairs, while most of the school organizations sponsor dances once a quarter. All this made it impossible for many students to meet school associates away from me school setting, or outside of the decidedly limited club affairs. The W club steps from the beaten trail tonight when they sponsor a roller skating party. This type of affair as a school function comes seldom, but appears to be a bright idea to credit to the athletes. "Executioner Waits" Grampus' Weather "Glacial ice sheet halted by a cloudy south wind, but damage is heavy up north at Ferndale. Natives drink fire water to keep warm. Barton and Daniels go— " roars greasy weather Grampus. I had to ban the last of that on account of Prosh. This was to be a "Grampus's" article, but me-thinks I must add, "Damage to education irreparable when Normal is closed for twenty-four hours because of a wind from Siberia"—personally, I thought it was from the northeast but I'm scared of public opin- i ion. To return to Grampus, my frost bitten readers, there he sits toast-in' his shins by' the proverbial stove like ah oven bird. His whiskers quiver and he speaks, "Wall, squirt," that's what he always calls me— "these icycles are nigh on to as bad as the ones that we had in the winter of, Oh—le'me see, wall, the winter of eighty-five." "But it's raining now," Grampus. "So it is, squirt, many a winter I've spent on a raft just going up and down with the rain, this is the rainiest region." "Aw, now Grampus, if it was as cold as you said; it would always have been ice back in 1885." "Many a time I've had to chop holes in the ice to give the old Nooksack a chance to run," says. o As can be seen from the above, skates have been the cause of this three-point landing, and they will probably be the cause of many tonight, at the big skating party, being given by the W club. If you can's skate, come and learn. If you can, come anyway! *es Looking Thru Reasonless Rhymes By Who Knows Little Jack Horner Sat in a corner Eating his Christmas pie, He stuck in his thumb And pulled out a plum And said "How'm I doin'?" he Reaching For The Stars There was a crooked man, Who walked a crooked mile, He found a crooked sixpence Against a crooked stile.

By Wilson Waylett in this novel, telling of the disintegration of the Traxlers, because of petty internecine squabbles and growing poverty, many will find striking parallels to their own family history. The book begins with illness falling on Aaron Trexler, and placing him at the mercy of a wife, Sally, who hates him. It is to rescue some of his estate from her that his sister, Anne Wendel, comes to his bedside and cares for him. But after his death the settling of the estate drags interminably and Anne dies, having reaped scarcely any of the benefits she had hoped for herself and hers. In general the author does an exxcellent job of depicting the family as a group and arranging their various relationships, but many of the individual members do not leave a definite impression. However, Anne Wendel seems remarkably real, probably because Herbst's earthy metaphors relate so well to ; her character. Anne's daughters, particularly the two younger, receive more attention than any other members of the third generation. Each is a distinctly superior sort of person but neither's frantic struggle for happiness is very successful. Rosamund, defeated by poverty, goes to a suicidal death, while he husband seeks salvation in the working class movement. The other sister, Vicky, with her lover tries the ivory tower escape but finds it inadequate, and we are made aware : that her course will probably follow that of Rosamund's husband. Even David Trexler, most well-to-do of Anne's brothers, feels a dark foreboding as the depression begins. Warned by his ill health that he has little time left, he fears the impending crisis will wipe away the estate he has spent his life building. The last scene leaves one with the feeling that a change in conditions is brewing; the "masters of capital" have danced long enough, "the executioner waits at the door." By Smith and Simonds Substitute a transportation manager for Clark Gable and a script girl for Loretta Young, add a whiff of Oakie and what have you? The sum total is a psuedo-interview with these movie stars. We succeeded in worming our way through the throngs of fans, only to be met by an adamant desk clerk who, in a disinterested voice, and with words bearing a quality of repetition, informed us that the actors were not at the hotel. Under pressure he admitted that Oakie and Gable were in but both had retired Shortly afterwards, however, Oakie walked gaily in, garbed a la "Call of the Wild"; a benevolent smile for all, and autographs for a few About ten o'clock Gable dashed through the lobby on his way to a secluded restaurant. Reporters Desperate Desperate at failure to contact any other notables, we cornered the man in charge of transportation who, declining an interview, said that chauffeuring for Gable was no more of a thrill than doing the same for a couple of Viking reporters, which puts us on an equal with movie stars. Now for the script girl, BODS Hoaglund, a very blonde blonde, with a lovely speaking voice, who told us the reactions of the company to the trip and the climatic conditions here. This being the first real-life action picture many of them had ever witnessed, they were much agog about it all.- Gable Fishes Gable, an enthusiastic Isaac Wal-tonite, intends to hook some steel-heads while in this vicinity.

WASHINGTON a OE Remember the W Club Smoker 301 IOE Viki ing aoi Varsity Plays Cheney Tonight aoi IOE What's The Score By By Phil Campbell The question of having boating or crew as a sport in this school was brought into prominence this week with the reverting of Waldo field into a real lake. It was suggested that the track in front of the grandstand would make an ideal straight-a-way for a good boat race. Incidentally tke purchase of the tract at Lake Whatcom, known as Normalstad, was done with the idea that someday the WSNS could have a crew of its own. Possibly when the school gets back on its feet financially this question may be brought up, at least a course in boating would add variety to the sports program. * # * * When the Vikings face the El-lensburg Wildcats and the Cheney Savages this week they will be running up against two of the classiest basket squads in the state. Cheney has met just about everything in the eastern part of the state and has beaten all but WSC. The Savages knocked over the Idaho Vandals, the team that beat the U of W, and forced the WSC Cougars to rally in the last few minutes to win. Coach Leo Nicholson's Ellensburg Wildcats are as wild as ever this year and have an impressive early season record. Last year they caused the Vikings plenty of worry when they defeated them 42-21 over at the Rodeo city only to come back over here for their return game and narrowly missed getting scalped. Nicholson centers his attack around Sesby, Sill and Marks, three of his outstanding players. * * * * The Northwest Vikings continued to slip in the intramural race this week by taking their second straight trimming-, this time at the hands of Jim Ahern's Portsiders. The loss of Stone and Carver is beginning to be felt and coupled with the inability of Kean and Hager to take part in the games^ consistently the Vikings are liable to find themselves too close to the cellar before the race is over. Vikings Journey East in Face Of Storm and Floods; Battle Cheney Five Tomorrow Night The Tomahawks, a boy's service club at Cheney, is donating a basketball award that is to be known as the Tomahawk tri-Normal Basketball trophy. The school that wins it three years in succession will have permanent possession of it. The awarding of this trophy should serve to stimulate teams to greater heights. * * * * Did you know that it was not Connie Mack, but his son Earl Mack, who originated thje recent tour to Japan and that Earl did all the planning for the tour? At the last moment he was unable to make the trip and so Connie Mack got all the credit... The players did not forget him, however, and in appreciation they sent - him a wrist watch from Japan. * * * * * Prom now on this column promises not to mention the Northwest Viking intramural team but once during the remainder of the quarter. This note should relieve some of the few readers of this column. o Squad Left Wednesday; Tangled With Ellensburg In Season Opener Last Night Nine Players Make Trip Team Will Meet Cheney Outfit on Home Court, January 31 The Vikings were defeated last night, 33 to 22, by the Ellensburg Wildcats at Ellensburg. Bud Vander Griend was high man for the lcals with 8 points. Undaunted by Mother Nature's adversities now on display, Coach C. F. Lappesbusch headed each last Wednesday with his band of casaba tossers to meet the strong Ellensburg and Cheney fives. This is the first extended tour for the Vikings this season, and will mark the opening of the tri-normal race for them. The hopeful Norsemen expected to reach Ellensburg in time to tangle with the Wildcats Thursday night. Prom there they will entrain for Cheney and the Saturday night engagement with the Savages. Both Ellensburg and Cheney have reputedly strong teams this year and Coach Lappenbusch did not hesitate to voice his respect for them. However, he has been pleased by the showing of the Vikings to date and hopes for at least a fifty-fifty break on the trip. Harold Fitzer's return to school and to the squad has added considerably to the strength of the team, especially offensively. His deadly shooting eye is always a dangerous threat to the opposition. The work of Zambas at guard and Dick Car ver at center has also been a bright spot on the Viking's outlook. thers who made the jaunt were Vander Griend, Dombroski, Stutz, McKenzie, Taylor, Gagnon, and Manager Ace Winsor. Teams Compared Some conclusion as to the relative strengths of Ellensburg and Bellingham may be drawn from the fact that the Wildcats nosed out the University of British Columbia quintet several weeks ago. The Vikings were defeated by UBC last Friday, 33 ot 29. Sesby and Marks have been the two scoring aces of the Ellensburg five thus far this season, and will have to be bottled up if the Vikings expect to come away with a victory there. Cheney's team basts of three veterans, Peterson, Danekas, and Rebensdorf. Eustace, extremely tall center, and Kerns at guard complete this strong layout. But there will be no rest for the weary Vikings when they return home again, for they will have two heavy assignments for the coming week-end bearing down on them like a Femdale silver thaw. They are slated to tangle with the Cheney Savages again Thursday night, January 31, at home. This will be the first conference game at home, and should be a bangout tussle for the fans to witness. o Men's Club Win Over Scotchmen By Large Score I n a fast and interesting game played last Tuesday the Men's club won over the Scotchmen by a decisive score of 40-23. The Highlanders gave the Clubmen a battle for about ten minutes of the first half, but at this point the "big guns" of the club started to find the range, and the score took a one-sided effect. Starlund again was among the high scorers with 10 points, but his work was overshadowed by the basket tossing of his teammates, Oltman and Stockton, who garnered 11 markers each, and that of Stuur-man, of the Scotties, who was high man with 12.

The game was closer than the score indicates and was one of the best seen this year. Half time found the reporters leading by a one-point margin, 11 to 10. However, with Meyer and Goff scoring, the Southpaws jumped into a lead from which they were never headed. The newsmen managed to tie the count at 17 all, but that was their last threat.

It has also been suggested that a raft and diving board be anchored half way between the building and the library for those swimmers who, because ot shortness of breath, are unable to take the whole distance at one time. Row boats tied to the lamp posts would also be an added convenience for students and faculty who do not know how to swim and can't afford an inner tube. * * * * The opportunity of a lifetime —Maxine Iddins was heard to say that for a dollar she'd swim across Lake Waldo—but if anyone has a stray quarter she's sure to bring down her price with a little urging. * * * * If the WAA skiiers return from their trip to Heather Meadows diminished in number no one need w o r r y—the missing travelers will probably have gotten parts in "The Call of the Wild".

Varied Violin Program Presented in Assembly Miss Viola Wasterlain, violinist, presented a varied program before the student assembly Tuesday, January 22. She was accompanied by Alice Spencer Weiss. Miss Wasterlain, who is a member of the Seattle Symphony orchestra, has appeared before the Normal assembly several times in the past. o Women's PE Class Schedule Is Changed Due to a conflict of space and classes, the women's physical educa tion schedule has been changed for the winter quarter. Miss Ruth Weythman's games class that was held on Tuesday and Thursday at 2 o'clock, has been discontinued. The rhythm class formerly taught at 2 o'clock on Tuesday and Thursday is now being held on Wednesday and Friday at 2. Miss Mildred Jewell has charge of this class. All women's physical education is taught in the large gym, leaving the small gym entirely for the men. Believing that the peace and dignity of the school can be greatly furthered by the acceptance of more responsibility and a greater co-operation among the students, I, President C. H. Fisher, do hereby create, at the request of the Student Committee on Traditions, a judiciary and advisory body to be known as the Senior Honor Court, the duties and privileges of which are set forth by the committee." This is the purpose of the preamble as stated by President Fisher. This Senior Honor Court is to be composed of five members, two of which will be selected by the faculty from the Junior-Senior class. Two will be elected by secret ballot, and one member shall be president of the class. This Honor Court will have jurisdiction over all members of the student body. It will accept any and all evidence or testimony presented to the court by any and all parties concerned and weigh it with consideration. Board Will Decide On New Program Next week the Board of Control will pass on the new Recreational Program. The program is in charge i of Christine Albers of the students, and Dr. Arthur C. Hicks, of the faculty. The west end of Edens hall will be the scene of this new program. Ping pong and card tables will be installed. Other necessary equipment will also be purchased. This plan will be in operation from, six forty-five to eight o'clock on Mondays to Thursdays, inclusive, and from seven to eleven o'clock on Friday evenings. No designated time,has been set for Saturdays and Sundays. Big Frolic Tonight At Auditorium Has W Men's Backing Party for Normal Skaters Will Be Sponsored by Athletes At Local Rink With the husky heroes of the W club as sponsors, the skating party to be held tonight at the State Street auditorium should be a success. And especially so' if the sponsors are on hand when the doors open at 8 o'clock. So all those maidens who haven't yet met certain blue - sweatered ideals are advised to get their tickets at the Co-op right away. They are 15 cents. When accosted by a, reporter on the subject the members of the committee were strangely noncommittal. They said they expected it to be '"lots of fun" and that they hoped students would "start buying tickets right away." The order and nature of events is a secret to be divulged tonight. o Viking Staff Planning A Week-end Party At Baker Cabin in Glacier February 1, 2, 3, are the dates set for the Viking week-end party to be held at the Mt. Baker club cabin at Glacier. Printed invitations to the party are being issued by the entertainment and invitation committee of which Ralph hSenenberger is chairman, assisted by Bob Lindsley and Nancy Jane Smith. Maxine Mickle is chairman of the food committee, with Joan Hoppe and Margaret Morris assisting her.' Philip Campbell is chairman of the transportation committee Penguin Prom to be Held by League Women February Girls Are Urged To Sign Up For The eLague Infirmal If It's Possible The Penguin Prom which is the quarterly Women's League Infirmal is to be held at the Crystal ballroom at the Leopold hotel, February 9. A penguin idea, featuring that unique bird of the north, is to be carried out at the dance. At the former dances girls living at the Edens hall dormitory could not attend the Women's Informals, but contrary to this custom it is thought that the dance will be open to these girls this quarter. "I would like to stress the importance of more girls signing up for the dance," says Sara Jamieson, "unless they do it will not be possible to hold the dance." Johnny Miller's orchestra will furnish the music. Klipsun Popularity Contest Prizes Announced; Choice Will be Made At Election Fourteen Players Receive Sweaters Art Bagley, Star Backfield Man, Gets Three Striper New Deal Philosophy Expounded by Arntzen To Psychology Group After developing the reasons for and historic background of the New Deal, the discussion led by E. J. Arntzen, social science instructor, at the Psychology-Philosophy club meeting Wednesday evening, centered around the nature and purposes of the New Deal itself. The purpose of the New Dealers, as outlined by Arntzen, is not to destroy capitalism or to abolish institutions of private property and individual enterprise, nor is it an attempt to establish some kind of socialism. The program of the New "A large crowd, plenty of food, Deal is one of social reorganization and a good time is guaranteed to and reconstruction so as to re-estab everyone attending the party," says Nancy Jane Smith, managing editor of the Viking.

"True individualism in the democratic sense was the prevailing condition in the early history of the United States, explained Arntzen. It can be described as that condition of life where property ownership is widely diffused, where the social outlook is one of neighborly interest and humanitarian concern for the general welfare." Fourteen football lettermen were proudly displaying their new sweaters through the halls and classrooms Wednesday morning. Included in the list were Art Bagley, star back-field man, who had three stripes, Chet Ullin, Bill Frender, and Mike Tomco who each had two, and those with one stripe were Fay Franklin, Bill Ames, Gene Waara, Clyde Mac- Kenzie, Jim Miller, Fred Guglomo, Don Holder, and Morris Tarte. Fearing stage fright, the men did not have their sweaters presented in the assembly, which usually is the case, but instead, Harry Winsor, football manager, had the honor of giving out the sweaters to the boys in the Men's dressing room. o 'Society Boys' Will Play at Mens Hop " 'Member the good time we had at the Men's club dance last quarter? Well, we're putting on another one Saturday, February 2, in the Crystal ballroom of the Leopold hotel which will put the last one entirely in the shade," says Emil Starlund. Starlund, who is in charge of the entertainment committee, says special stress will be put on the school letters WWCE. Ken Roberts' orchestra from Everett and Seattle will furnish a mixed program of dance music. The social will continue from 9 until 12 o'clock. o Viking Staff Welcomes Reporters With Party Nine new shows and two repertory companies opened on Broadway last week. Not since 1927 had the Christmas-New Year week been so packed with premieres. Among these is "The O'Flynn," a tuneful and colorful tale about the battles between William of Or ange and James II of Ireland. ter by Dr. A. C. Hicks. "We are branching out. taking into account the literary work of these poets as well as Classic, Greek, and Roman contemporaries," says Dr. Hicks in commenting upon the courses. Since these poets lived in an age of great revolutionary change, a study of them at this time should be of special interest to students. Byron is a two-credit course while Shelley is a three-credit course. held this week. Other officers elected were: social chairman, Virginia Davenport; reporter, Margaret Win-terhalter.

The budget was to have been decided upon Wednesday, January 16, but since it was impossible for President C. H. Fisher to attend a board meeting at that time, it was postponed until next week. The yearly budget, which was drawn up during the spring quarter, will have to be revised somewhat since 550 students were used as the enrollment basis per quarter. About 700 students are in school this quarter. Budgets Due The members of the board will have the department budgets explained in detail by the department heads at next Wednesday's meeting. Business of minor importance will also be cleared up at the board meeting. A slight difference now . existing between the by-laws and the new constittuion will be straightened out. Next week's meeting will perhaps be the last time that the present board will be able to transact business together. The winners of the final election will take office at the following meeting. Wasterlain, Violinist Will Give Program Due to the postponement of the vocal concert which was to have been presented by Nan Dybdahl Wiik, of Bellingham, Viola Waster-lain, prominent young violinist of Seattle, has been obtained for assembly January 22. Miss Wasterlain, accompanied on the piano by Alice Spencer Weiss, will present a varied program including a few numbers by Bach and closing with a group of European dances. Miss Wasterlain, a member of the Seattle Symphony orchestra, was enthusiastically received by the students at a previous performance. o Viking Submitted For Contest Sponsored by Minnesota University Issues of the Northwest Viking for the past year have been sent to the University of Minnesota for the annual contest of the Associated Collegiate press. Newspapers from most of the teachers' colleges in this country are entered in this contest. *" Each' newspaper that is entered is criticised and graded. The highest possible rating is "All-American," and it is awarded to about 2 per cent of the publications entered. The Viking at present holds first class honor rating. Tryquts For Dramatists Presentation Very Good Tryouts for the 16 speaking parts of Shakespeare's "Twelfth Nght" were held Wednesday, January 16.

Spectators very apparently enjoyed the struggle although they seemed in doubt as to what the teams were playing. However, since it was too late for football, and the players weren't dressed for that game anyway, everybody, including the referee, decided that the game was basketball. Daniels' three-man rooting section added college atmosphere to the battle royal. Daniels is expected to challenge the varsity shortly. o Prexy Attends Legislative Meet Fisher Meets State Legislators At Social Gathering in Tacoma President C. H. Fisher attended a meeting of all the legislators and state officials last Friday evening at Tacoma. The meeting was preceded by a banquet, at the Hotel Win-throp, which 500 persons atttended, A like meeting is held before every state legislative session. It is sponsored by the Tacoma Chamber of Commerce and the Pierce county delegation. After a few entertainment features, the main address of the evening was given by Robert Montgomery, the editor and owner of the Puyallup Valley Tribune. Mr. Montgomery, who is a regent of the University of Washington, spoke on some of the problems of the state. He particularly stressed the problem of state revenues. Mens Club Dance Is To Be Given Vikings Defeat Seattle Falcons Team Wins First Game of Season In Decisive Fashion Dombroski Stars Opening their home season, the Vikings last night defeated the Falcons of Seattle Pacific College, 43 to 35, in a rather slow and listless game on the Whatcom court. The Vikings at all times had the game well under control and except for a time early in the first half were never behind. Coach Lappenbusch substituted frequently in order to save his men as much as possible for the game with University of British Columbia at Vancouver today. Vikings Start Fast The Vikings opened fast and soon ran up a lead of 8 to 2 with Van-dergriend counting a field goal and a pair of free throws and Carver and Dombroski, field goals. The Falcons then spurted and with Edwards, Trepus and Lewis hitting the basket, tied the count at 10 all. Lewis then counted a couple of free throws to give the Pacific boys their only lead, 12 to 10. After getting possession of the ball again, the Norsemen started clicking and ran their score up to 22 as the half ended, holding the other team to a lone foul shot. Lockard Scores At the opening of the second half, with Dombroski leading the way with three field goals, the Vikings increased their lead to 30 to 14, before the Seattle boys got going again. Here, however, Lockard, a substitute forward, kept his team in the game with three field goals in a (Contniued on Page Four) "Absolutely no corsages" is the ultimatum handed down by the committee which is planning the Men's club dance for February 2. Emil Starlund and Don Richardson, co-chairmen of the affair, promise a good .time and good music. The Society Boys from Snohomish county will play for the dance. Mon Orloff has charge of the programs which are to be in the shape of "W's". The tickets, which will cost one dollar, are being sold by Bill Frender, Oscar Starlund, Arne Johnson, Philip Campbell, Tony Zambas, and the two chairmen. o Vanadis Bragi Meeting Changed To Later Date Members of the Vanadis Bragi club postponed their meeting from January 14 until the regular meeting night, Monday, January 21. The program will include discussions of recent modern novels, including "The Land of Plenty," by Robert Cantwell; "The Folks," by Ruth Suckow; "Bonfire," by Dorothy Canfield, and "The Foundry,' by Albert Halper. • —o—— Nominees For Offices Are Introduced Today Candidates for the Board of Control- offices were introduced; to the; student^body in this morning's' assembly.

Rec hour is to be held between 4 and 5:30 this Friday afternoon and in the evening a program is to be held at the school at which such entertainment as bridge, checkers, ping-pong, and chess will be offered. The committee that has been working out the plans for the recreational hour in' the evening believes that students of the Normal school who do not care for dancing should be provided with a rec hour in accordance with a greater number of their different tastes. Home Ec Department Discontinues Electives The two courses offered as electives in Home Economics this quarter have been discontinued because the number of students which signed up was insufficient to justify organization of these classes. These electives will be offered by the Home Economics department next quarter. Any student who plans to take one of these courses in the spring quarter is asked to see either Miss Linda Countryman or Miss Gertrude Long-ley.

For the seat open to both men and .women Monday's nominating convention chose Agnes Martin, Roger Mullen, and Harry Winsor. Oscar Svarlien qualified yesterday afternoon when his petition tallied more than 25 signatures. Blanche Pierce, Christine Albers, and Louise Schulz are the choice of the convention for the board post open to women only. There was no petition opposition. Winsor hides his intellect under a guise of genial buffonery. A milk-fed, rosy-cheeked idealist is Roger Mullen. The WAA's claim Agnes (Continued on Page Four) o Trip to Mt. Baker Postponed by Club Swisher, Hike Chairman, Plans Trip for Saturday The all-day outing at Heather Meadows, which the WAA girls had planned for this Saturday, has been postponed. The definite date will be decided upon later. To take the place of the Mount Baker ttrip, Hazel Swisher, hike chairman, has arranged that Miss Lillian George and she will lead a group to either Toad lake or Chuckanut mountain. They will leave the school at 1 o'clock Saturday from the front of the school. A' large number of girls have signed up for the all-day jaunt. Dr. E. A. Bond will lead the group. This hike is not limited to WAA members, but all girls of the school and faculty members are included. Transportation will be furnished for everyone. Exams Are Conducted In Health Chest Clinic Approximately 25 students were examined at the chest clinic conducted in the nurse's office January 14 and 15. Dr. S. L. Cox, of the Tuberculosis league of Seattle was the examiner. Examinations of 27 of the men students who entered this quarter have been completed by Dr. E. K, Stimpson. Miss May Mead, assisted by Miss Nell Bryant and Sam Carver, was in charge of the examinations.

You each cherish the right to form your own opinion. On Tuesday, use this right. If you do not know the platforms of the various candidates, don't rely on other students for the facts. Find out for yourselves; then use your Sunday judgment. Have you visited the art exhibit yet? Prospective Authors, Attention! In this issue of the paper, we announce a short story contest inauguarted in co-operation with the English department. So much interest has been shown recently in composition classes that many students will undoubtedly avail themselves of the opportunity to enter the contest. In the recent Northwest Viking questionnaires many suggested having stories of some kind as a new feature of the paper. Here is a chance to do this publication and yourself some good. Haven't you always wanted to see your name appear as the author of an article or story in some reputable magazine? Haven't you often envied the persons who win great renown and large paychecks (sometimes) as short story writers? Give yourself a break. Begin to write for the Viking a story which may win you a 10 spot in the national contest. The stories of the contest winners in this school will appear in the Northwest Viking sometime during April. Let's find your story there. What a strange effect the spotless snow has on certain students. First we see them, then we don't —speaking of politicians, of course. Here we view the body! Habeus Corpus! Rigor Mortis! Etcetera—a portrait of a candidate for the position of president of the A.S.B. It is due only to the fact that the presidential candidate was so lengthy in his campaign speech that the artist was able to make this drawing. There he stands, so he hopes, on his shaky platform of more money for sports, less money for fees—he is a magician—and a strong student government of the students, for the students, and, above all, by the students. No matter how he says it, it all boils down to, "Elect me, and I'll do you right." After the election the line will form to the right and everyone may carry out his own dead. Keyhole Greetings, all my little fur and feathered friends—this is a voice from out of the past. My word! To think that three years could make such a difference!

Practically the only familiar face is Louis Shaffer's and that's only because he's even more pereniallyer than I am. 'm just a hangover from the days when you could buy a sandwich in the cafeteria without being tramped underfoot by the training-school horde; when it was Baughman's instead of Servuwell and you could procure a lipstick or a bromo-seltzer if need be; when the Viking office was a homey old mess and people played bridge between and during classes—when "Deah Rogah" Chapman was "ye ed" and Colin Campbell was student prexy; when "Posy" Flowers was in his prime and Janet McArthur was the most serious-minded female hereabouts. . . . Oh well, time tears aside the curtain of the years and everybody's out of step except Georgie—hep, hep— back in line. They still do it—poor Ralph Hoffman snatching 40 winks or so with his head pillowed on Sally Stephens' receptive shoulder during the last assembly—the lullaby was just too much for him. Mr. Kibbe joyously proclaiming, "I told 'em it would get cold, I prophesied a cold snap, and now I can use up the nine tons of coal I ordered!" . . . .

St orm? By Louis Shaffer The storm clouds that have been approaching are here. And what a mess we have with the beginning of the blow. One can hardly guess what sort of muddle there will be when the sun comes out again next week. The first big flurry came in the form of a nominating convention, which evidently set constitutional proceedings aside and failed to elect one of its own members as its chairman. The biggest gust brought out the fact that FAY FRANKLIN was nominated for vice-president two quarters before he will be eligible to hold office. Each of the candidates for president made quite a splash as they dropped out of our steel grey skies. To date those up are: GORDON MILLIKAN, of whom we have heard whispers of Communism, MARY THOMPSON, the party, political girl (WAA), MIKE TOMCO, the big brawny football hero, DON RICHARDSON, who keeps the books for the Klipsun, MABLE ROLLE, the dark horse, and GORDON RICHARDSON, the little strong man with the versatility. The last three named have been nominated by petition. The candidates for the other positions seem but as slush underfoot, with one noticeable exception. DR. BOND seems to have come down in a cloudburst from the appearance of his popularity. We have to have so much backwash with each storm, and it looks like JULIUS DORNBLUT is willing, and able, to furnish us with plenty this time, now that he doesn't have to assume the responsibility for the content of the N. W. Viking. Forecasts for the coming year: No matter what happens, the political weather will be most interesting. PAT ALLAN will no longer be the power behind the throne that he thought he was because a girl and a "Student Opinion" can make many people shudder in then-boots.

Last week the new Viking staff, under the guidance of Editor Shen-enberger got under way with a bang and several minor explosions. A number of readers caught the drift of the pannings their respective friends received in both editorial and "news" columns. Imagine the thrill it must be to have your friends insinuated about where everyone can read it. But what does it all mean? The state legislature is still authorizing diplomas and President Fisher still occupies the office on the main floor so neither Huey nor Mickey Mc- Guire cut so much ice after all. W.S.N.S.

The Vikings had run up a string of nine consecutive victories until they ran into Starlund's men. The score, 24 to 20, indicates the closeness of the two teams. In fact, the Vikings led "most of the way, but the Men's club came from behind with a determined bid and stole the lead and the game. The score at half-time gave the newsmen a 6-point lead, 15 to 9. The newspapermen can lay their defeat to their inability to check Starlund, the manager and sparkplug of the Men's club. If Coach Charles Lappenbusch can bring his men up to the form they displayed at intervals in the Bostrom game, we can expect a lot of victories from the Vikings this season. If he fails, then it looks like just another year. That, to us, sums up the basketball outlook for the season. When their plays clicked against the Oilers, the Norsemen looked like a team of real college caliber; but the rest of the time, it was the same old story of just another team trying to get ahead. This game today, with UBC, and the road trip next week should just about make or break the squad for this season. Speaking for the rest of the school, we want to wish them a lot of success and say that we are with them to the end, win or lose. The picture of Bud Vander Griend fumbling around for the ball the other night reminded us of that definition that is so often given of a philosopher, "A blind man in a dark room searching for something that isn't there, but he thinks is." Week's highlight—This week the nod goes to Oscar Starlund, manager of the Men's club intramural team, for his showing against the Northwest Viking five. Oscar, big and fast, possesses enough scoring ability to make him the most feared man in the league at the present time. If the all-star* team were to be picked today, it is our opinion that Starlund would be selected unanimously. As long as he is present in the Men's club lineup, it will be tough nut for any team to crack. o Height is what it takes, and thaj is just what the Italian Athletic club of Seattle had plenty of last Wednesday night when they overwhelmed the Bostrom five of this city. What Lappenbusch could do with a few inches of that height on his team! Maybe we could use a few Italians.

Altough the game was very close throughout, the Beanery boys pulled out in front in the last quarter and continued to hold on to their slight lead until the end of the game. The game was very rough, with Bartons having the usual high in personal fouls. Warra and the two Jacobson brothers were the high scorers for Bartons with nine, seven, and seven points respectively. Stuurman for the Scotchmen was high individual scorer with fourteen points. / Vikings to Face UBC Hoopsters Today at Noon Canadians Feature Fast Passing Attack; Have Defeated C PS In Recent Game Fitzger Return To Squad Same Five That Opened Last Night T o Start Game Traveling across the border for their second athletic engagement with the University of British Columbia, the Viking basketeers battle the Canadian quintet this noon in Vancouver. The unusual playing time is accounted for by the Canadian college's custom of playing at this hour. Canadians Have Strong Team While not much material is available concerning individual players, it is a known fact that UBC's basketball squad boasts of a much better record than did its grid team. Basketball is no innovation to the Britishers, and in past years they have developed some very good aggregations. They recently returned from a barnstorming tour in Washington, playing such teams as El-lensburg Normal and the College of Puget Sound. Both these teams were hard put to it to beat the Canadians, and in the second game of the series, UBC beat Coach Roy Sandberg's hoop squad by two points. Same Lineup to Start After playing a hard game last night, the Vikings will have to be clicking in every department to win over the tough Canadian squad. Coach Chuck Lappenbusch intimated Thursday that he would start the five men that have opened previous contests. Much will depend, however, on how the team worked last night and changes in the starting lineup may result. The probable starting team will find Zambas and Stutz at guards, Carver at center, and V a n d er Griend and either Fitzer or Dom-broski in the forward positions. The addition of Fitzer, one of last year's outstanding players, should strengthen the Vikings materially. Severen, MacKenzie, Edwards, and Taylor will probably see action in the game also. o Daniels Win Game With Edwards Hall DANIELS 29 EDWARDS 15 Gugiomo _...F Weeks S Miller, W. 4 F Aunstin 4 Ames 12 C Carrol Tarte 5 G - Elsinor 4 Miller 2 ".

From the start of the game it was evident that Daniels was out to trounce Edwards and they proved this by leading 14 to 4 at the end of the first half. In the second half Daniels sent in their reserves and they allowed their opponents to score eleven points, but in the meanwhile the reserves made fourteen for themselves. Ames was high point man in the content with 12 points and Alpaugh was second with 6. NATIONAL BARBERSHOP YOUNG MEN'S H A I R C U T T I NG A Specialty fust Remember UNION PRINTING CO.

Organize Social Club A club composed of former students of Bellingham Normal who are now attending the University of Washington has recently been organized. The primary purpose of this club will be social. The parties and meeting will help to hold together and further the friendships of former Normalites. Further purposes of this organization will be to aid in the mutual understanding of the two schools and to help the transfer students of the Normal to get acquainted. January 10 was the date set for the first meeting. Eight students were present and unanimously agreed to form a permanent club. Those present were: Jimmy Campbell, Mary Fisher, Debby Altose, Harriet Rickerson, Helen Wahl, Johnny Gable, Left Lewis, and Bill Fisher. Wednesday, January 16, is the date set for the next gathering. Approximately 70 students have been spoken to and all are in favor of the idea.

"I do greatly appreciate the spontaneous applause which followed my songs, and am glad that these young people show such good taste for music." Mr. Zimmerman, a teacher of voice in Seattle, is "76 years young," as he puts it. In connection with his studio, he has an opera house across Lake Washington, and gives his own concerts, which are always for benefits. When asked to what he attributed his continued activity at his age, he said, "I told President Fisher that the reason is that I don't drink less than a quart of whisky a day. Of course that isn't true. Faith in God- and in yourself, and the willingness to work hard are the rules I have tried to follow. I am never sick, and I sing all the time," Mr. Zimmerman said. Emphasizing his appreciation of the Bellingham audience, Mr..Zimmerman concluded, "I believe that music has a great mission in the world, and it is when ^singing before audiences such as this, that I believe the mission is really being accomplished."

Dombroski, with 10, and Vander-griend with 8, led the Vikings in the scoring parade. Zambas turned in another one of his sterling exhibitions at the guard post and while not scoring heavily played the best game of all the Norsemen. o Pins May Be Chosen As New Insignia For WAA Club Members Because so few girls in the school earn sweaters and because the members of the club wish some insignia by which they can be distinguished, the Women's Athletic association is considering the possibility of having club pins. The committee appointed to investigate this matter consists of Florence Lund, chairman, Mary Thompson, Gladys Blankers, and Hazel Oie. The committee will give its report at the next WAA meeting. At that time the association will decide upon the question. Misses Florence Johnson, Janet Matthew, Lucy PPPPP

Will Meet Friday . to Discuss Revision of the Constitution BUSY SESSION ASSURED Two-Piano Ensemble To Present Concert as Tuesday Feature Proposed changes and amendments to the constitution will be presented to the members of the Students' Association at a regular meeting in the assembly on Friday. March 4th. The series of changes, according to President Colin Campbell, is intended, to make the constitution consistent with the new three-year plan of the school. In addition to the three changes as proposed by the Board of Control and printed in this issue of the Northwest Viking, President Campbell stated that three other resolutions probably will be brought before the students next Friday. These three tentative amendments have not taken definite form as they lack action of. the Board of Control:- The Control body, however, has a committee working on these suggested changes which probably will be put in definite form by March 2. The probable resolutions the Board at its next meting on sion by the Board of Control are: 1. That the name of the student body be changed from "Students' Association of Washington State Normal School" to "Associated Students of Washington State Normal School" This change is a result of a suggestion by the Speech department. According to a statement by Mr. V. H. Hoppe, the change will prove much more satisfactory in the. advertising of all school activities. He also pointed to the fact that the present name lends no dignity to an institution of higher learning. 2. A change in the rules of election of the president and vice president. With the present rules only a plurality vote by one of the nominees of the group of candidates is necessary to elect him. '* The change probably will include a primary and general election. A disadvantage of the present system as pointed out by President Campbell is in the case of several nominees being up, the least popular man may be elected, due to the votes being well divided among the popular candidates. 3. The amendment concerning the sweater awards which was defeated in the last meeting by a very small majority with a few changes probably will be submitted to the students at the meeting for reconsideration. The committee appointed by President Campbell to work on the new election rules is as follows: Elsie O'Donnell, chairman, Sivert Skot-heim, Jimmie Stoddard, Eddie Duyff, Miss Nora Cummins, Mr. Edward Arntzen. Mr. H. C. Ruck-mick, and Charles Dowell. The committee hopes to formulate a set of rules including the primary and general election which also will stimulate club interest. Mrs. Dorothea Hopper Jackson and Mr. John Hopper, pianists, will be presented in concert here, at 11 o'clock on Tuesday, March 1. The two-piano ensemble is expected to form a most attractive program as both of the artists are very accomplished musicians, having studied in European countries as well as in many parts of America. Mr. Hopper appeared here last quarter when he accompanied a violinist from the Cornish School of Music in Seattle. Unusual Program As students very seldom have the opportunity to hear a two-piano ensemble in concert this program should be vry interesting as well as entertaining. This will be the first time, a program of this type has been offered here for some time. Formerly of Cornish School Mr. Hopper, who was formerly connected with the Cornish School of Music, has acted as soloist with several orchestras, including the Seattle Symphony orchestra, under the direction of Karl Krueger. .

Address Given The speaker of the assembly was Mr. Walter B. Whitcomb, who has been a member of the Board of Trustees of this school for many years. In his talk he gave a brief resume of Washington's life and in closing he said, "It is not what Washington gained in school but what he got at home that started the development of his strong and rugged character." Following this, Miss Evelyn Montgomery sang a song "Trees", and James Butler read "Washington's Farewell to the Army". The assembly then adjourned to the campus, where the tree planting exercises took place. Leatha Dedicates Tree , Erwin Leatha, president of the Junior class, performed the dedication of the tree. In this dedication he said, "The nation and the name of George Washington are inseparr able." He continued saying, "Every tribute to Washington is a direct tribute to patriotism." In response, Mr. Pelagius Williams gave a short speech in which he said that education, like a tree, must be firmly embedded in the field of knowledge to give off great results. To close the program, Preston A. Wright gave a reading, "The Heart of a Tree", by Henry Bunner, and president of the student body, Colin Campbell, planted.the tree. _—,—o —i GROUP OF STUDENTS MEET WITH HOPPER It will be a spirited Viking machine that takes the floor against the College of Puget Sound tomorrow night at 8:30 on the Whatcom High gym floor. The Blue and White need the scalps of the invaders to make the season a success. C. P. S. Strong The College men will be hard to handle because they, too, will be under severe pressure to win. They have once turned the Vikings back this season 42-33 and will be out to prove that it wasn't an accident. Coach Ray Sandberg has a pair of guards in Gagnon and McVey who will give the Normal forwards a troublesome evening. Carlson, forward, was the big scoring threat in the previous encounter; he will be watched Saturday. Vikings Improve McBeath and Rork came through with high class basketball on the recent victorious road trip. If they will continue the revival they will give C. P. S. plenty of defense work. When these teams are thrown into action it promises to be interesting. The type of basketball the Vikings played on the trip will press C. P. S. to the limit if they will win. Rork's Last Game Saturday's game probably will be Rork's last basketball game for the Normal. This always sets the stage for a good performance. In a preliminary which promises to be good the champion Co-op "Thugs" will take on a team from Everett. Little is known of this team but they have a good record. "Curly" Gross, manager of the "Thugs", has utmost confidence in his champions coming through for him in their last game.

TO P L A N how the VIKING can best serve and best represent this school has been our aim. Many suggestions have been made by faculty and students and have been considered by the staff. President Fisher has met twice with the entire staff and discussed with them various aspects of the school newspaper. A study of'the purposes of a student newspaper has been prepared by the Research bureau of this school. AS A FURTHER aid to determining what function a paper can have in a teacher training school, President Fisher has taken with him on his Eastern trip representative issues of this year's Vikings and he will compare them with papers of other educational institutions and at the same time investigate school newspaper management in the outstanding teacher training schools in the East. A V A R I E T Y OF IDEAS has arisen from our disussion, prominent among them the realization of the peculiar position of the NORTHWEST VIKING. In the first place, the VlKlNG is prepared for readers of an intelligence quotient far above that of the average newspaper reader; in the second place, we cannot duplicate the work of ordinary colleges because .ous is a specialized institution and outstanding in its T H E EDITORIAL STAFF of the VIKING has tried continually to maintain a high standard of journalism and is always receptive to new ideas and to suggestions for betterment. OUR FUNCTION in this school can only be to serve the interests of the school. Doubtless with sufficient interest and effort the student newspaper can •become one of the most important constructive elements in the institution. It performs a service that cannot be duplicated. WE, ON T H E VIKING STAFF, realize our opportunity and responsibility. We have reached a point in our progress where we need no longer follow or copy. We must now take the initiative. We must progress and build. We must have ideas and ideals. We think this school offers us an opportunity for great accomplishment. We want to publish a paper that will appeal to the largest and best element in our student body, that will serve students, faculty and administration to the greatest degree, and that Bellingham Normal will be glad to claim as her own creation. . o w AR ALWAYS ELCOME S WliilM-This, world that we are lioin in Is surely hard to beat.

This decision was reached after a thorough study of the problem by the English department, „.the Training school and the bureau of Research. Course Not Required There is now no course in English composition required of the students. As a consequence a number of persons graduate and go out to teach with ability in the field of English composition which is considerably below that which the Normal feels should be required. For several years all entering students have been required to take a test in the field of English usage. This test is more nearly a measure . of the students' ability to recognize correct forms and to proof read material which is already written. It. is. not a test to measure the students' ability to compose material. The new test which is required is. a.highly valid measure of a students', ability in English composition.. -.;{! First.Tests Given On Tuesday, March 1, at 4 o'clock all students who are not yet clear in the English usage test will be required to take this new test. This includes special students as well as those enrolled in some one of the regular curricula. Students who have transferred to Bellingham Normal from some other college or university are not required to take this test. On the basis of the scores made on this test some students will be urged to enroll in the no credit course "Corrective English". This course is especially designed to aid students in the quality of their written English. In the future, standards will be set which must be attained by students before beginning their work in the Training school. BIBLE CLASS ON WED.

Al-though forced to their utmost to topple the favored Gladiators of Tacoma, the Vikings showed unexpected strength in eking out a one-point victory over the strong Rangers from St. Martins College. Bangers Take Lead Playing on their own floor, the Rangers were doped to drop the visiting Vikings by a comfortable margin as the Vikings were only able to run up a four-point margin over the Rangers in the first game of the home-and-home series early this season. But the Laceyites failed to take into consideration the extensive drilling the Vikings have been undergoing for the past few weeks and the adoption of new plays to their offensive attack. Sibillia, husky Ranger forward and football star of last quarter, successfully led the Rangers in their seemingly desperate first half spurt in an effort to roll up a safe lead. Coupled with Haggerty, his running mate, Sibillia circled the hoop for ten points in the first period. Haggerty, not to be outdone, equaled his partner's efforts with ten points and helped the Rangers roll up an impressive 28-17 lead at half time. Vikings Rally What Coach Carver told his pets behind the closed doors of the dressing rooms will never be known, but his words must have served as a pleasing tonic for the men, as they went out and quickly erased the big lead of the Rangers. Wahl, diminutive but flashy forward, was sent into the fray and his shooting efforts plus the dead-eye attempts of Sherman, McBeath and Rork quickly pulled the Vikings within striking distance of the high-striding men of Lacey. During the second half the visitors outscored the collegians 29 to 13. As the game progressed, and time grew shorter and shorter, the Vikings slowly pulled up until, with but six minutes to go, they were within one point of the lead. The game then see-sawed back and forth with neither team getting the upper hand. Johannes Ties Score Then, with but twenty seconds to go, Johannes tossed in a free throw to tie the score at 38-all. A five-minute over-time period followed immediately with the score crawling upwards at a snail's pace,, with neither team getting more than one poin^ lead. The game was actually won by Sherman, fiery Viking guard, who sunk a beautiful shot, with but seconds remaining to play, to give the Vikuigs the upper hand, and what was eventually victory, which the Bellingham men deserved to have.

Completing their most successful andsatisfactory road trip ?f the season, Coach Carver and his Viking crew returned home last week-end following victories over the Pacific Lutheran College at Tacoma, and St. Martins College at Lacey. The Gladiatorj game at Tacoma was a humdinger, to say the least. Dopesters had it that the visitors from Bellingham would take the short end of the score, but mere dopesters meant nothing for the tought-from-being- beatenVikings. This 39-35'Victory compiled by the Normal quintet was outstanding because of the small gym the northerners had to play in.-The low-ceilinged, small sized court made it extremely difficult for the Vikings to hit their stride. Loggers Tomorrow Nite—— From all reports, the St. Martins- Viking game was one of the finest seen in that section this year. And the score indicates that a terrific battle must have been waged between these perpetual athletic enemies. An exact replica of the Cheney game was depicted when, in the final half-minute of play, Johannes converted a foul shot to tie the score, at 38-all. In the five-minute overtime that followed, the score, point by pouu, crept higher and higher with Sherman finally swishing the nets for a field goal that placed the Vikings in the lead 46-45. The final gun sounded with the score resting at that point. Rork led the scoring in this game with 12 markers, McBeath followed with t ea Loggers Tomorrow Nite Some time ago, in the dear, dim days of last Spring quarter, one Norman Bright was making track history for Bellingham Normal and Tri-Normal record books. He left school last spring and lille Was heard, of him or his 880 and mile running prowess. As you remember, he holds the local field record of 2:02 in the 880, and 4:25.2 in the mile. A short time ago rumor had it that he was back in training with his eye on the near-approaching Olympic games this summer. There was nothing to substantiate this rumor until early this week the story appeared in the U. W. Daily that he was a participant in an early season time trial held by Coach Edmunetson... He placed a close third in a 4:36 mile. This reports should warm the cockles of all Viking track supporters and make them feel that they too are sharing in these great games that are coming this summer. Not that Norm will make the grade, but, if he shows just one-tenth the grit and stamina displayed last year on Waldo, he'll give any runner a mighty stiff jaunt. Loggers Tomorrow Nite We see where the Gross Thugs are "stepping out", so to speak, following their triumphant completion of the intramural basketball race. Tomorrow night, just before the Viking-College of Puget Sound fracas, the Co-op aggregation will sap the maple with an independent team from Everett. Little is known about the visitors and therefore no predictions will be made. But we do think that the Thugs will find a little more trouble when they come to roaming the large Whatcom court after waltzing around the local "little gym". Loggers Tomorrow Nite—— Hats off to Clint McBeath, Varsity forward flash, who.." has., just completed his 250 foul heaves in the foul-shooting contest, sunk 209, and walked away with top honors in the contest... Jimmy Rork, last year winner, ended up in second position with 192, and Myron Chandler tossed himself into third place with 186 completed tries. ——Loggers Tomorrow Nite All right, you future baseball neophytes, get the old hams toughened and be ready for "Pop" Gunn's initial call early in Spring quarter. And for you fellows who ndo't crave the hard-ball league ana would rather enter the intramural soft-ball league, just speak to the coaches or to yours truly.

The score this time was 39 to 35, and the game was played on the Collegian's floor Friday, Feb. 19. Earlier this year the Vikings played host to them and gave them a 37 to 20 drubbing. The game last Friday was everything the score indicates. The lead see-sawed back and forth throughout the entire game with the Lutherans within tieing distance when the gun ended the engagement. Home Towners Take Lead The Tacomans started out with a bang and ran up a nine-point lead before the Vikings began to click. Moe, diminutive forward, was caus^ ing Carver's guards' a lot of worry, who were unable to cope with his fast breaking. Moe turned in a very creditable performance, scoring fifteen points in the course of the evening. Th Vikings began to find their scoring eye after about the first ten minutes of play, and before the half they were leading 21 to 17. Clint McBeath scored eight points this half, while Rork, center, dropped in three field goals. Vikings Increase Lead Starting the second half, the Nor-malites increased their lead to 11 points, and started to slow down, when Moe again started clicking and scored nine points in quick succession, thus pulling his team within four points of the fast slipping Vikings. Johanesen, guard, was forced to leave the game on personal in this half: Carlson, Lutheran guard, was the only other one who could seem to find the hoop for the Collegians. Carlson scored eight points, but had his hands full watching McBeath. Irving Wahl, Viking PPPPP

With this promise still ringing in our ears we think it not amiss to present for his consideration these ideas culled from the platforms of the defeated candidates: From•'•V.Tim" Lowe—Flood lighting for the tennis courts and double Vrec" hour, Friday evenings. From "Penny" Carter—Publication of the minutes of the Board of Control verbatim. We are particularly in favor of this last; in addition to aiding the student body to keep informed, it would provide Editor Chapman with some splendid filler for what was formerly t^e editorial page of the Viking; ,„ ;, :'j%.f ;yyB7.s.N.s.— . At this writing we have yet to hear our first comment on Paderew-ski's Vancouver piano recital from those students who went up to hear i t However, judging by what was said after. John Charles Thomas' appearance we anticipate hearing his choice of numbers unanimously deplored. W gt;y is it that so many Normal student critics and would-be critics stagger under the delusion that ART must be complex, intricate, sMtedT^nything to be difficult;, that what is simple can not be good? Now we, personally, are ignorant enough to thing that "Old Man lUyer" is music and to wish that some of the more - difficult things were downright impossible. ' ' / '.".;"J-' —W.S.N,S.— Speaking.of music and musicians, has it" eyer^struck you that there is . . a decided overproduction of so-. .; pranos, dramatic sopranos, colorat u r a sopranos-^ I omitted any?

Contest" which we view with.alarm.!Popularity contests and 'contests... to choose the most representative this and the average that seem to us as inane as Walter Winchell and beyond this we can hot go. As Walter himself would no doubt say, "Aw Nerts!" —W.S.N.S.— j With one l o n e exception—the ;.-Drama Club—it seems to us that the multitudinous clubs of this school are just a bit stagnant. The place is literally ridden and teeming with clubs but what do they do? What are they for? With due apologies to J. Butler, whose idea it is, we suggest that one assembly program a quarter be provided by each club. The clubs could be subsidized by: the fund which pays our assembly artists so that the program would rjot be altogether a labor of love. At the same time a slight saving might:, be effected which wouldn't be hardto take in this era of economy. ' ; - ' . • ' " --WJS.N.S.— *'- Siuden^ American students and ifiost of all ^ American Normal sta* dents* are the most conservative peo-pte in the world. Can you imagine tKe^NdiTDfal School student body rioting ablout a political principle or an abstract idea as students do in Ejurope^ aiid elsewhere? Not they! WnJcli' W^mMj a good thing. • ;}^p(lMl^t^a^yPUe interests of the pfbtessionlai man or woman; of ..tb^;;OT^/-5(gap^toti-:'-bi1"the ndddle c^^a^^iM^aire'bound' up with •th«i^j^irfe^-;^H|ffc wage earner. ^ ^ a ^ ^ t ^ i t O ^ class admit tails* blit itv is none the less true, and this middle class is very soon, QB/jJag to be a thing of the past, ground to extinction by^ the upper and nether millstones of Labor and Capital. How's that for a phrase? For Normal's Annual Campus Day Loafing 'Scotty* Skotheim Chosen as Head of the Festivities DATE IS MAY 10 Drama Club and Thespians Furnish Amusements in Two Assemblies to Hunt Takes Lead For Presentation of "Cradle Song* Spanish Play by Sierra Reflects • Romantic Setting of Country's .Convent Margaret Hemion to Present Recital for Tuesday's Assembly Most R^resentat^ (By Sammie Carver) There comes a time in every year at the Normal when every man takes a day off and leafs (or shall we say—works?) This time has been appropriately named Campus day, because both students and faculty spend a great deal of time on yon campus weeding and digging and pulling and beautifying. The date set for this spring is Tuesday, May 10. Bond Is Generalissimo This year Sivert Mr. E. A. BOND Skotheim, popular ex-Board of Control member, has been chosen as Adjutant General for the year's festivities, - and Mr. E. A. Bond as Generalissimo. They plan to carry out the idea in a military fashion, appointing majors and lieutenants to have charge of the various committees. The clubs of the school are to have charge of the different features of the day. The Drama club is furnishing entertainment in the form of a" light musical comedy or a short play for the afternoon's assembly, the Thespians are on deck for the morning's fun, and the W. A. A. and the "W" club are handling all field events. The Valkyrie club has kindly condescended to play the much needed roles of paddle squad and water girls for the toiling Normalites. "Scotty" urges all clubs who wish to handle some part of the entertainment to notify him of the fact immediately. The big feature, however, is the re-naming of Normalstad, a tract of land on the shores of Lake What- Virginp^unt has been;selected to play the role of Sister Joanna of the Cross, probably;v the ;.outstanding character of^y^^d^arter's play, "Cradle Song,"py?ihich^ is to be presented May 26 and 27. Each member of an indefinite cast which was selected last week has now been given gt; definite part. Itony. Women The women characters are: Teresa, Dorothy Ritchie; the Prioress, Billie Mills";' the Vicaress, Virginia George;' Mistress of Novices, Elsie O'Donnell; Sister Marcella, Florence Christianson; Sister Maria Jesus, Mary Evich; Sister Sagrario, June Welch; Sister Inez, Grace Pinlay, and' Sister Fornero, E l i z a b e th Squire. The male parts are taken by Richard Albert, who plays Antonio; Preston Wright, who portrays the poet, and James Butler, who characterizes the doctor. Spanish Play • Written by G. Martinez Sierra, a Spaniard, the play reflects the romantic style of that country. It is the story of a child who is left on the steps of a convent and then reared there. When a young woman she falls in love and leaves the convent to go to America with her betrothed. The plot is not complicated but the action, which all takes place in the convent, produces an unusual effect. A joint recital of Margaret Moss Hemion, soprano, and Helen Louise Oles, pianist, will be given^in assembly Tuesday, April 26. Press comments praise very highly the musical ability of both artists. Mrs. Oles recently played before the Bellingham Woman's Music Club and was given very favorable mention in the Herald. Is Praised Highly The Musical Courier places Miss Hemion as "easily among the finest sopranos in the Northwest." Comments on her interpretation are especially noted, together with the liquid quality of her tones. Mrs. Oles is a young pianist who has won a significant place among the recitalists of the Pacific Northwest. The scope of her repertoire ranges from the early composers, Scarlatti, Couperin, Purcell, through Bach, Beethoven, Brahms, Cesar Franck, to include the ultra-modern. Studied Abroad She has recently returned from intensive study in Berlin with Georg Bertram, European master of pianoforte, and is a former pupil of Louise Van Oles, of Seattle, and also of Sigismond Stojowski, of New York. -o SCHEDULE OF FINAL EXAMS IS PROPOSED Faculty Accepts Plans Outlined by Dean Bever at Meeting ELSIE O'DONNELL HIKE §ff]HEDULED Bond Will Lead.

A plan for the schedule of final examinations for this quarter was proposed by Dean Bever and accepted by the faculty at their meeting Tuesday, April 19. The main principle of the scheme is to see that practically no student will have two examinations coming in direct succession. Each examination is to be an hour in length. In order to accomplish this the first three days of the last -week of school will be left entirely free for examination days, and the regular class work will be closed on the Friday before. After the examination, the class is automatically ended- This will enable out-of-town students to leave earlier than in previous quarters. The tentative schedule for the last week examinations is as follows; Eight o'clock period examinations on Tuesday; 9 o'clock period exam- (Continued on Page Four) NormalYNewly Elected Prexy Tells ALL HIS POPULARITY MUST BE DESERVED Interviewer His Pet Peeves are Girls MiBmM^ ^i oMi , f ^ § f ®MtL ?K«:.- on itinued on P»fe Three) The following regulations were adopted by the faculty at its regular monthly meeting on Monday: That the Scholarship Committee act as a group to handle all cases of cheating.

The system worked surprisingly smoothly and has proved its merit along with proving the foresight and ability of those students and faculty who planned the revision. THE USE of the regulation voting machines was of great value in conducting the election in an efficient and business-like manner and for these machines the Normal extends a vote of thanks to Mr. G. P. Kin-caid, county auditor, whose co-operation made possible their use. o LEASANT WORK RESENTING RIZE WINNING CO-ED The representative co-ed contest the Viking has sponsored is ended with the announcement of the winner in today's paper. We wish to thank all the students and faculty who have helped us in the contest and especially President Fisher who has made it possible to initiate the contest in the Normal. "' - The Viking is very proud to present to the school and to the entire country Elsie O'Donnell who we feel is most qualified to represent us. The excellent choice the student body has made in selecting a co-ed is justification, we think, for continuing the precedent of conducting an annual Representative Co-ed contest. — 0 ; We note where students in Bulgaria are living on $5 a month.

It seems the gentleman's sheet slipped in the midst of the ceremonies and being clad only in very brief undies, he stooped to retrieve the aforementioned garment.

President Fisher Is resentative Ebr Bellingham Normal Miss Margery Horton, of the P. E. department, has recently been honored by having an article written by her, together with two other P. E. instructors^ published in the Research Quarterly magazine of the American Physical Education Association. On Motor Ability This article, which deals with the testing of motor ability for university women, was written as a part of Miss Horton's thesis tot her master's degree in ^physical education. It was the purpose of this study to set up a battery of tests which may be used to classify freshmen college women according to their motor ability. Tests Answer Need - Physical educators have long felt a need for some highly reliable test of this kind, and it was with this need in mind that these tests were formed by the three authors of this article, Miss Horton, Miss Florence D. Alden, of the University of Oregon, and Miss Grace Caldwell, of the Detroit public schools. Many Experiments Made Many studies and experiments were made as to the reliability, validity and diagnostic value of the proposed tests. They were tried on many physical education classes at the University of Oregon and found to serve the purpose exceedingly well. The Research Quarterly magazine, in which the report was published, is devoted entirely, to studies made in research work in the department of physical education and is published four times during each year. N O I * ^ ECONOMIC QUALITY CLUB VOLVES PLATFORM President C^H^Hs^r was Normal's repre^^flV^v-at";;iHe; semiannual educational conference held at the University of Wasriington last Friday and Saturday. The other of these conferences is held in Tacoma in the fall. On Friday members of the University of Washington educational department met with heads of Western Washington high schools and discussed the relation between these institutions and entrance requirements. At this meeting Dr. Ernest Horn gave the same talk on activity programs that he presented to the faculty here last week. Puget Sound school masters, of whom President Fisher is one, met on Saturday. "At this time A. S. Goss, master of the State Grange, gave a very illuminating talk on revision of taxation," remarked President Fisher. Mrs. Grace Krous, of the music department, was also present at the conference. o SEVEN TEACHING JOBS SECURED BY STUDENTS Last week showed many changes being recorded by the Appointment Bureau, with seven students securing teaching positions. Among those who have signed to teach next year are: Lucille Sly, the first and second grades, at Naselle; Dorothy Martin, the first three grades at the Hopewell school; Josephine Savlocki, the Lucas Creek school in Lewis county; Dorothy Top, the sixth grade at Napavine; Harold Shelton, a Ferndale school not named as yet; Logan Stuart, the fifth and sixth grades at Goldbar, and Carl Lund-berg, the upper grades at Hartford.

A violin duet, from the Overture of "Midsummer Night's Dream" was given by Emily Dow and Frank Forstren, accompanied by Ethel Page. A one-act play, "Good Theatre," by Christopher Morley, was read by Mr. V. H. Hoppe. It was a delightful farce about the return of Bacon and Shakespeare to earth. Elizabeth Squires sang two Shakespearean songs, "Hark! Hark! the Lark" and a selection from "Winter's Tale.'? Miss Beatrice Doty and Mrs. Spearhv arranged an attractive magazine book display of Shakespearean' art with illustrations.

Moe. veteran Normal athlete, showed good early season form by tossing the discus 115 feet to win first place in that event. Van Over surprised the fans by tossing the plate into a r second place. Becken, lanky half miler, showed promise of being one of Carver's consistent point winners when he copped the 880-yard dash although the time was-slow for the distance. Becken let the others set the pace and finished with plenty to spare. Walt Schlilaty coasted-to easy wins in both the 100-yard dash and 220- yard run in the exceptional good time of 10.3 sees, in the 110-yards, and 23.6 for the longer dash. Jim Davis showed his old form to cop the highihurdles running away from the rest of the field to win the race in the exceptionally good time of 16.9 seconds. Jim fell down in the high jump but is expected to hit his stride later on with more practice. Whatcom Man Good Fife, Whatcom's speedster, looked like a comer ni winning the low hurdles. Fife won handily although Davis gave him a run for it up to ttie last few hurdles when the high school boy's speed beat Davis. One of the most^xciting races on the schedule* was^the mile run when Benedict copped for Whatcom, running" neck and neck with Duyff and Johansen of the Normal, Benedict ..plunged over the finish line to break the tape first. Carver Satisfied Sam Carver, Normal mentor, was well satisfied by the performance of his stars-|and predicts a successful season.

CONDUCTED BY Arvid Griff en . Until Jatethis week Coach Sajm Carver had almost given up hopes of having1 a spring track squad. Instead of the track work lie had intended to groom a fleet of young men to fill - a crew shell and then arrange for a rowing classic on Wado field in the near future. But with the indefinite return of sunshine and what not, track prospects are looking- up (and., that ...doesn't mean that they are flat on their backs)- Men have been wading around in mud up to their knees valiantly trying to get into condition for two weeks but they haven't given up yet and we're wishing them lots of good weather .before the first meet. —W.S.N.S. Hang on mates, we're about to take a jump over to Ellensburg. Track prospects look plenty good for the Wildcat mentor with Cecil Fortier running the 440 in 53 flat, and Al Backus tripping around the oval for a mark of two minutes in the half mile. Not bad for early season trials, eh, gentlemen. W.S.N.S.— On looking deeper into the cinder talent at Ellensburg Normal we find several other men of note who will press the Viking aces plenty in the dual meet here a week from Saturday. They are: Dashes, Vic Stiles; weights, Linden, Erickson and Lind-quist. Bird, Nelson, Martin, Wood-ring, Bnblin and Ingham have also been doing promising work lately. ——W.S.N.S. Last year the .cinder men from Cheney gave the Viking squad their biggest trouble and this year promises another battle to a finish with an experienced aggregation training at Cheney this spring. Coach Reese carries his hopes in a nucleus of lettermen; Roundy, Bannon, Mc- New, Paski, Anderson, Sharp, and Oberst. Roundy now holds the tri- Normal mark in the shot, but with "Red" Van Over, Iver Moe, and Jess Sutton pulling plenty hard in training they should make Roundy extend himself. — W.S.N.S. Cheney and Bellingham will fight this year for the big trophy. As each schooL. has., won., the.. tri-Normal pennant twice, this year decides who gets the "mug" to put in their trophy case. Now, just where is our trophy case? W.S.N.S. Coach "Pop" Gunn has developed a fast baseball nine this spring and expects his charges to go a long way up the ladder. . Some of his hot-shots include: Smith, Cook, Gallenger, Leatha, Brewer, Iverson, Loomis, Macomber, Campbell, Comfort, Eacrett, Abbott and Van Over- A rear ball club and a bunch of fine fellas. Lots of luck, gang. s^. , —W.S.N.S. — •". That's all of the Normal news, folks. -——W.S.N.S. — Its too bad that the depression had to come just when the Univer sity of Washington crews planned to take a jaunt to Poughkeepsie to participate in the Intercollegiate Rowing Classic on the Hudson. But, at any rate an army of young men are now canvassing the City of Seattle in search of $8,000 with which to send the varsity, eight shell east in the near future. W.S.N.S. Speaking of rowing, let's give a big hand to Karl "Obie" Oberleit-ner, former Whatcom high school athlete of last year who is rowing in the frosh boat at the U. of W. "Obie" rowed in the freshman shell at No. 5 position when the Husky eight trimmed the Golden Bears of California two weeks ago on the Lake Washington course in Seattle. W.S.N.S. Do you happen to be one of the persons who prophesied that the mighty king of the baseball diamond, Babe Ruth, had passed his days of swatting the pill outta the lot? How sad, the big boy knocked a pair of home runs in the first game the Giants played this season. Not bad for a mere babe. — W.S.N.S. In training for the Olympic games tryouts in the near future Frank Wycoff of the University of Southern California was clocked at 9.4 and 9.5 in the century during the meet with the Olympic club... Two watches caught Wycoff at 9.4 and two more clocked -the ace at 9.5. Well, we won't argue over a tenth of a second but at any rate that's plenty fast. , W.S.N.S. Two thousand athletes from fifty nations plan to participate in the games which will be held from July 30, to August 14, at Los Angeles. W.S.N.S. Wishing the baseball lads lots of luck on their road trip to C. P. S. and St. Martins, this column is finis. DIAMOND SEASON TO Vikings to Play C.

The poor lads struggle around the track time after time, bathed in perspiration, ready to drop. We feel so badly that we stretch ourselves out upon tlje bench, lying flat on our backs, to rest for the fatigued heroes, even if they cannot. The crack of swung ball on thrown bat echoes across the field like the proverbial pistol shot. Grunting gentlemen throw the shot here and there about the oval. The contented thud as the ball settles into the clinging mud sounds to our tired ears as sweetly as the dulcet plop of a newly made pancake upon a warm plate. The discus sails through the air, ever higher and higher; up-up-upp! Is it ever going to come down? No! It's a sea gull! But nevertheless the discus is being thrown—hither and thither, thither and yon, and then back again. Coach Carver cracks a command. The bronzed, grim candidates wheel silently into line. The pole vault-ers drop the poles—which fall suddenly and surprisedly to the ground. The sprinters, the distance runners, the very Heavens seem to come closer to hear what the coach is going to say. A tense silence—a/slight stirring like the rustle in the leaves before the gale. Then like the crack of a leather lash comes the coach's voice, commanding, domineering au-thorative; "Three times around the track and to the showers, men." We gasp relievedly. The crisis is over. Hopes running in high gear, Pop Gunn and a squad of twelve baser ball players, departed yesterday afternoon for Tacoma, where they will tangle with the strong College of Puget Sound ball club today, moving over to St. Martin's for the Saturday game.

Hartley to discuss the educational program in which was included a general discussion of the needs If this institution and other state ediicatibhal Units, last Wednesday. £ President Fisher said that "while tdtie governor and his cabinet reflected^ the general depression of too1^tn%:x gt;n the whole this budget hearing was entirely satisfactory." /K-islsteted that next year the trustees c* the ^ will ask, the state legislature for enough: money f to VbtiJld/a new physical education buiidinifcthe esthriated cost of which is $300,000. They will also seek an appropriation for more land, and will request, for operating expenses for the next biennium/ about as much as was given for the present biennium which was $633,000. President Fisher first attended the National council of the Y. M. C. A. in Chicago for four days. He was elected delegate of the Y. M. C.

He stated that he wisried to fly across the state of Pennsylvania, but after he had booked passage, the trip was cancelled because of unexpected bad weather.

It has been planned to have a report on the student; co-operative store but this was dispensed with, owing to the fact that there was an absence. This financial statement was to have been given a week ago at the regular meeting, but again the absence of a member-forced a delay. It is thought that Sam Ford, manager, will present it at the next meeting regardless of attendance. Arthur Gravrock was appointed to see that a suitable marker is pro vided for the Service tree that lies just inside the Bird Sanctuary and near the Sanctuary stone. This tree was planted on Arbor day, 19191 and has since been transplanted. It was set in honor of five boys from Bel-lingham Normal that lost their lives in the World War. It was stated by Dr. G. W. Nash, then president of the school, that a stone tablet would be placed there soon after the planting. Nothing, though, has been done about it until the present time. A full account of the history any features connected with this memorial was carried in the November issue of the Viking. It is reported that complaints have reached the Board to the effect that several students have been dissatisfied with their ,connection with the photographer doing the Klipsun work. The Board let out the fact that they know nothing of the situation at present, but feel that they should hold an investigation to clear up the matter. The possibilities of* a hearing have been talked of at the meeting, and also the fact that a notice may be posted to determine those that would like to appear at an open discussion of the matter. "' The general understanding expressed, according to the secretary of the Board, is that the work has been of high caliber, arid that the rumors seem to be based on the idea of the general attitude taken toward the students by the company concerning re-sittings. Notices for application for business manager arid editor of the Viking were ordered posted on the bulletin boards. At, present two students have signified intentions of applying. Jack Greaves will seek the position to be made vacant at the end of this quarter by Gordon W. Leen. Leen has used the allot- QUAPLTERLY BANQUE?lf OF BpSip | gt;F Gb^TTOL ATlGHtiGKANUT SHEL;L A bariqjti at the; Chuckariut Shell s plaririeol?f6r' gt;t6ra^ by the members oith^ Board'; of G^rbl; Each member ofthe..

The members of the Board who plan on attending the banquet are: Charles Dowell, Art Gravrock, Quen-tin Quick, Mary K. McDbriald, Jbhri Rajala, arid ihe two faculty riiem-bers, Mr. E. A. Bond, arid Mr. Herbert C. Ruckmick. No foririal prbgrarri has been arranged for the banquet but there will be toasts arid discussion of work for the corning quarter. The board is planning for a picnic to be held in the spring for both the oid and new members.. T—-:——O : •' Portland Delegates Review Conference In Friday Assembly Speaking under the auspices of the League of Nations Association, M. Pierre de Lariux, who is in charge of the league offices in Paris, held the interest of t h e entire stu-dnt body with his half hour talk in Wednesday morning's special assembly. M. de Lanux' handling of his topic, "International Ethics," gave his listeners a clear Idea of his wide acquairitance with international affairs and problems. Following his talk M. de Lanux answered questions asked by members of the audience, and a n interesting discussion ensued. ' U . S . Co-operating The speaker expressed satisfaction with the present attitude in America toward the League of Nations arid said .that, although the. signatory powers would welcome the advent of t h e United States into the league, the present Condition of amicable co-operation was very satisfactory and would suffice to further the purposes of t h e ieague in promoting world peace. % Contrasting the internation al ethics of today with those of fifteen years ago, M. de Lanux expressed CHILLY DECORATIONS OF ICE AND SNOW WILL MAKE BLUE ROOM WHITE AS GUESTS GATHER TO DANCE. 8:30 TOMORROW Glistening icy igloos and snow-covered Christmas trees will be t he unique setting for t he Frosty Frolic Informal to be given on December 6, at Edens Hall, from 8:30 to 11:30.

DUE AMENDS \..;/' Last week the Viking stepped beyond its editorial bounds and tradi-tional policies in publishing a certain editorial dealing with the state budget and Normal school situation, and thereby left itself and school officials wide open for criticism. Possibly the chief officer has been placed in a false position in the eyes of those who read the discussion. Obviously, the paper has mixed into politics despite the fact that the President has made every effort, in the past to keep the institution and all of its departments out of politics and to work with state officials in the role of an educator, not a politician. ; The Viking freely admits that the conclusions drawn could not be supported by the evidence quoted and only one side of the case was given. In going beyond the.presented data, the writer enterd the field of con- .fecture. Tardily, perhaps, we should like to call attention to the obvious fact that the Governor himself must be confronted by the problem of kepeing educational standards on a high plane and at the same time pursuing a program of economy. One point clearly overshadows another. It is usually felt that the editorial column is a place for the student editor's comment, but in this instance it has been interpreted as a reflection of the thoughts and feelings of the entire school. The fact is that the editorial Was.not prompted or written by any faculty or official, and the VlKlNG wants it clearly understood that it is the opinion of none other than the student writer.c , O——•: WE FINALLY CAME TO IT In all probability the subject of co-operation in keeping the lawns in a good condition has provided more editorial material for school newspapers than any other One subject, with the possible exception of "silence" "in the assembly room. This time, however, we have been asked as a special favor to plead with the students in regards to the large amount, of gum and candy wrappers thrown on the lawn. George Dack, head gardener, feels that there is more effort made here to keep the lawn in perfect condition than in any other school, and yet this toss-aside method of dealing with refuse has become worse so rapidly that it is impossible for the present force to keep up with that much additional work. We swore at the first of the year that we absolutely "wouldn't say "watch out for the lawn" but we have finally'come to it and we mean it in all due regard to the caretakers. We do promise though ..we won't ask for quiet in assembly in the next issue, no matter what happens. - W h i l e on the subject of requests, we might just as well unload our thoughts and have it completed. These chiefly concern the numerous suggestions and hints on how The Viking should be run. We don't resent criticisms that come in a constructive manner and we do try to co-operate with fair measures. However, when we have a definite plan layed out for a particular issue or certain news that we feel is important above all, we thereby are not bound to listen to any outside dictations, provided of course that we do not go beyond the power or discretion allotted us. In particular, .we feel that this is a student publication. We are anxious to work with the faculty, but when we are asked to carry out a •certain request that is more or less out of the question at that particular 'time because of physical limitations, we hate to come in for "bawling outs" afterwards. Sometimes everything doesn't go smoothly about the VlKING office, any more than in any other department and often we are forced to make the best of it, and thus do not feel that We can justifiably be held responsible for minor discrepancies or news ('that must be cut, rewritten, or left out. NOW WE'LL PICK O N E This is the time of year that numerous sport officials, fans, and writers honor themselves and favorite players with some sort of mythical all-star eleven or honorary lists. Every type of division mathematically or geor graphically possible form the reason for a mythical team. Thus they give cause for sport space, post mortems; talk-fest or what have you. Last year the Tri-Normal football teams had a probable eleven selected, but so far this year we haven't heard of- any such team, and if they don't get busy the Viking may come in for its share of official selection based on what the papers have carried. • We offer you consultation about your eyes without obligation and you are inyitecl to call arid have your glasses adjusted.

And go to some nice place over the border where we can, weep into weak beer about the fact that editors must be editors and type writers will take things into their own keys and you'd be sur prised what they, say sometimes and you got more publicity than we did but, by golly— Things are pretty quiet around here just now. One good snowstorm and,everybody from the.ediT tor on down can fill up the. paper with a poetic description of the campus under its silvery mantle. Darn, good reading, too. I'm just waiting for spring so I can extoll the singing of the birds, the sprouting of the leaves, the thoughts of new spuds and peas in cream gravy, and how taxes will be due. Ye ivy walls which I see across the way, how long have you encased students whose minds have been fresh; got fresher, and suddenly passed out as the carbon dioxide of education running in closed rooms became an all-powerful toxicant? It's about this time of the year when you try to remember whether your cuts are going to cut', you three credit hours or just get you kicked out of school, that your mind wanders to thoughts of is it going to snow tomorrow, how funny vitriolic looks upside down, what is the use of going to school, what shall I get her for Christmas (wonder about this three times at least and then send her candy) and points south. Particularly, points south. College Humor, which reflects the moronic glory of higher education in the dumps, carries an advertise ment of a collegiate cruise through the Caribbean Sea.

G.W.L. All of us at Bellingham Normal are placing another milestone. Reviewing the fall, winter, and spring quarters of the college year is no easy-itask, hence no job for the columnist. However, for one who has survived four years of such life, there is an inhibited tendency to spread on things a bit, forcing the reader to put his mind in the shape of a shoyel to be carried away with the specks of accumulation,—if you follow! —W.S.N.S.- No; il is the privilege of one who has witnessed, the evolution, of students coming, going, failing, and succeeding within and without the institution to eulogize somewhat. It is fitting that the Viking spirit should influence and guide the following few words which are Writ- Jen to call forth a voluntary strain of appreciation on the part of the graduate and'others who feel that they are integral members of Bellingham Normal, and who are caught under the spell of this shore-landi- Sfagay. It is the voice of traditionitself that speaks. -..••_ ——W.S.N.S. Today is practically the last day for scores of graduating students whofrom the morrow will turn their faces toward other fields in life— tho^ of teaching, those of the world of affairs, and those of domestic life-^siich as the life that awaits, may b£ Though the school envir-onm^^ will be shifted, memories andyideals never change. ^^SlKy"'V": W.BN.S.r—-•—"' '•:MJ^]^eiW7ii^d Blue" \h^^0^lif^^emories;'of the grads ii i^ beiW$4ifa up through quarters of give-and-take philosophy. •;• J f V ^ ^ hading Jmmstratioh arid in scho* As a part of the class day exercises on Wednesday, June 8, Doris McEImon will be presented with the scholarship cup by Vernon Leatha, president of the sophomore class. Doris McEImon wins the right to hold this cup for one year and have her name engraved upon it by achieving the highest scholastic rating of the freshman class for this year. This custom was established by the freshman class of 1930 to encourage new students to work for higher educational ratings. The first 'award was made in 1931 to Wilfred Gunderson, who was the first person to have his name engraved upon this cup. The point system, is used in determining the winner of the cup. From thirty-two hours work for the two quarters the winner made a total of 131 points. The runners-up in the contest were: - Frederick Knapman, Janet McArthur, Virginia George and Munford Orloff. The committee to select the winner is composed of the dean of the school, president and adviser of the Scholarship Society and the president and adviser of the sophomore class. "Cradle Song", Drama Club Production, Is an Outstanding Play (By Naomi Watson) One of the most outstanding presentations that the Drama club has given was "Cradle Song", by G. Martinez Sierra. Because of its romantic setting and unusual situation, rt will be remembered for its affect on human emotions. An enthusiastic audience saw the play on the nights of May 25 and May 26. Virginia Hunt, characterizing a Catholic, Sister Joanna of the Cross, is being congratulated on her work. Her part showed the woman's universal mother love in spite of vows that a nun must take. The Prioress, Billie Mills, characterizing the Mother Superior in a convent of nuns, played her part with naturalness and finish. Because of her successful change from her own personality to that of her role, she" may be said to have done outstanding work. Virginia George, as the Vicaress, lent humor to the play in a characteristic way. Richard Albert, in a difficult role, did well as the young and nervous lover. "The doctor, James Butler, -may be called the male lead and was well liked in his character. The lovable but humored child, reared in a convent, was indeed well portrayed. Dorothy Ritchie played this role. To her capable acting is due much of the poignancy of the scene where the nuns are forced to return to the world then-beloved child. Perhaps the most praise may be given to Mr. Victor H. Hoppe for his directing of this successful presentation. The public does not always realize the efforts which a director is forced to put forth but it is no doubt worth it when plays are as successful as "The Cradle Song''. DICKY LEAVES HOME FOR EAST. JUNE 20 Leaves in Plus-fours, Plus Hanky, Plus Shoes and Plus Normal Annual FINANCED BY VALKYRIE On June 20 Dick Albert will leave his home in Everett, eastward bound, bearing a Klipsun for Mr. Hoover. He is to be dressed in plus-fours, plus handkerchief, plus shoes, plus colored glasses, plus a twenty-pound pack. First going south to Portland, he will take the Lincoln highway east, passing through Denver, Colo., Salt Lake City, Utah, Omaha, Neb., Chicago, 111., and then to Washington. Upon presenting the Klipsun to Mr. Hoover, Dick intends to say: "Mr. Hoover, could you please tell me wherein'ell the corner is just around which prosperity is lurking?" Valkyrie Sponsors Trip The trip is sponsored by the Northwest Viking and the Valkyrie Club is helping to finance the expedition by the sale of tickets to the football show, "The Huddle," to be shown tonight and tomorrow night at the Mount Baker theater. Naomi Watson is in charge of the tickets. Tickets will be sold this noon on the main landing for 35 cents a crack. All. members of the Valkyrie Club have tickets to sell. $20 Needed Dick is in high- spirits for the trip for which he will need about $20. It is hoped that this amount will be cleared by the sale of tickets to the theater. He expects to hitch-hike all the way, spending no money at' all for transportation. Food, he estimates, will cost him about $2.50 a week. The first part of September will see him home, preparing to return to school fall quarter. NO DRY STATISTICS GIVEN IN PAMPHLET "State School Statistics Since Statehood" Gives Facts Statistics are usually dry things but here are a few nice juicy ones that may surprise you. Did you know that $118.34 was the total expenditure per public school pupil in the State of Washington for the year 1931 as compared with the magnificent sum of $300 which is spent on each Normal student in the vain endeavor to pound a little knowledge in. This fact, together with a number Of others equally. surprising is disclosed in the pamphlet, "State School • Statistics Since Statehood" (how's that for a good hith if you lithp?) which has recently been received in the president's office. This survey is a financial and statistical history of the public schools of Washington from 1890 to 1931. Enrollment Decreased There were 55,964 school children in the census of 1890 and 346,422 in the census of 1931. The number of elementary school children enrolled for 1931 was 252,306, which was a decided decrease from the number enrolled in 1927 when the registration seems to have been at its peak, with 258,141 listed. The elementary school enrollment for 1890 was 55,644. High school enrollment on the other jhand displays a steady and almost remarkable growth from 1890 when 320 were registered to 1931 when the census was 90,508. -. .

"And last scene of all in this strange eventful history is second childishness and mere oblivion, sans teeth, sans eyes, sans taste, sans everything"—poor old Preston Wright went to the show without his glasses Sunday night and had to have his friend, Jackie Knuppenburg, read the talkies to him. Oh the frailty of the M. Todd woman—"I will not go to the hospital with you, I will not go for a walk and I will not offer any explanation!" —And "ittle Dimmie Toddard" wonders why! There were "Percy" Zwaschka and Arvie Griffen slumbering peacefully through.last Tuesday's folk song recital. Well, it was more than I could do, at that, with all the disturbance emanating from behind the footlights. (Continued ftpm Ps^ipa^ lastic attainment. And We have benefitted spiritually. We leave Bellingham not only technically trained for the job of instructing—but, better still, for the job of life with a liberal arts foundation. Indeed, this latter mentioned "foundation" will be augmented by and serve as a footing for a fuller opportunity in schools devoted to specific professional work—-the true university. -W.S.N.S. Jean Murray, Vera Esleby and Jacqueline James played cradle-snatchers Monday and entertained some high school boys. "It might have been all right if they hadn't been such perfect asses," wails Jean. Yes, m'dear, but aren't they all? 'OOTBALL REMAINS, INANCED—HOW? FOLLOWING the results of the vote on football yesterday, many persons no doubt will be interested in learning the editorial reaction of the Viking. T H E TWO questions the Viking has been primarily interested in have been, to quote from an editorial in the May 2 0 issue, "Could intercollegiate football in a college and town of this size be made a real asset to the students and the school if more money were spent? Or, would it be better to adopt a complete intramural program and benefit more students." T H E CHIEF aim of the Viking was to raise the question and this it has most successfully done. We have been most pleased with the way the students have responded to the problem and expressed their opinions pro and con. The procedure used in allowing an open forum for discussion and then referring the question to a popular vote could not be improved upon. WITH T H E DECISION that football is to remain we now must meet the problem of how much we can spend on it; how much the women of the school will receive for their athletic program, and how we are to raise the $2228 which we will need for intercollegiate football if we are to maintain it at the same level as last year. THE MAJORITY of those interested have expressed their opinion, some openly, and others have successfully ridden the ience by calling it an evil compensated by pleasure. Now we must all buckle down and co-operate with the Board of Control as they make adjustments of activities to meet the budget. ANOTHER NOTE that marks a desirable trend was the growth of interest of the women students. We are reminded of a student association election of several years ago when the women students became conscious of their strength, became organized and in the election placed all their candidates in office including Then there is the Carroll chap, of course, who is having the usual bust-up with the one and only and is going in for wine, women and song in a big way. 'Next to deaf and dumb ones, we liked our chap-erones best," chortle the participants in the Klipsun picnic—"they all had to leave about an hour after things got going good." This being my last spurt—Somebody murmurs, "Parting is such sweet sorrow—" and I come back in the vernacular with "Oh, yeah!"—I s'pose I.should say a few words in leaving but my eyes are filled with tears, my throat with sobs, and my mouth with a gag and so I can only holler with a stifled cry—GOODBYE— GOODBYE.

LARGE POSTERS were used at that time bearing the black heading at the top "Shall 100 Rule 1000?" and a cartoon showing an elephant representing women votes, cowering at the sight of a mouse, the men's votes. The side comment was, "If the elephant only 'knew his strength." The girl who was elected president at this time, Daisy Howard, is now county superintendent of schools near Flint, Michigan. FAREWELL AND ELICITATIONS A SCHOOLYEAR draws to a close and we part to go our separate ways. Many of us will not return to this school, others will return in the fall, and some will remain during the summer. Wherever we go we will be separated and acquaintances of the year will become dim, yet there will remain the memory of many happy hours spent in the atmosphere of Bellingham Normal. THE VIKING adds its farewell to the many others that will be said this next week. We have enjoyed working with and for the Associated Students during the past three quarters and have endeavored to verve the best interests of the greatest number at all Club activities have had their place in contributing to the lives of the "many- score". Intramural athletics have had their place, too, in the school life of the majority, while a few of us were able to compete for varsity honors. These two branches of athletics have been as well cared for as the trunk of intellectual growth; consequently they have flourished. How well rounded our school life has been! There is included even workshops for the handling of materials, tools, but— our advancement in this industrial realm has been measured by our gleanings of that phase of educa tional philosophy which our instruc tors have opened unto us. Passing, we found four great walls housing the wondrous recorded findings of the. ages. A few ounces for digestion, but there were tons for stimulation. Ours has been a life of constant exposure to the inspirational. ..Yes, these two or three years have made greater changes in our lives than would have been made by a more ordinary environment. Nevertheless, the ordinary? the homely, have been made clearer to us so we might assist in imparting not so much knowledge as understanding in the minds of the growing and even the less fortunate. W.S.N.S. Aside from athletic, intellectual, and. spiritual enrichments there has stood our social life. Truly has recreation become idle menace for many in the world as it is, yet how true it is that recreation has been the source of retaliation for many of us who are to somehow influence the world as it is to be. The Class of 1932 wants to come back to its Alma Mater in future years to find many changes in ideas, improvements and readjustments in the organization of this school in relation to the other higher institutions of the state; but, this class sincerely wishes to find the same old Viking spirit and traditions which have been passed onto us by our thousands of Alumni. W.S.N.S. We can predict an addition of teacher training to bring elementary and high school work under a com mon yoke. There will be an enlargement of the present campus. Changes in points of view are gradually being affected already—particularly, the germ of internationalism has found a breeding place within these halls. • Summing all, may we expect to .find higher standards for the pro- Each member of the eighth grade graduating class of the Training School is taking an active part in a program to be presented on Tues^ day, June 7, at 9 o'clock in the auditorium. The presentation will consist of a group of nine short dramatization based on the magic carpet idea.

In limiting this field it is necessary to break the ground for training in other professional and liberal fields.

Wampler on Top of Girl's Tennis Ladder Final tennis matches in the girls' ladder tournaments have been played off this week. Alice Wampler gained the top of the ladder by defeating last year's champion, Helen Howell, 6-0, 0-6, 6-2, thus winning the intramural ladder tournament. Julia Christen-sen and Inez Williams follow Helen Howell in placement. "' A few doubles matches will be played off at the W. A. A. field day meet tomorrow morning. _o NORMAL GOLF SQUAD PLAYS FIVE MATCHES Saturday, May 28, at Seattle, Walter Schlilaty, Viking sprint ace, popularly known as "Mercury," qualified in the Olympic finals, taking first place in the 100-meter dash and second spot in the 200 out of a field of twelve contestants representing the cream of the cirider-burners from Oregon, Idaho, Montana and Washington. Friday saw the elimination of half the twelve contestants in each race. Two heats of six men in each were run in both events Saturday. The three winners from each heat were run together with our own "Mercury" clicking the tape in 10.7, second by a mere hair. Both the winner and Schlilaty were so close together they were clocked together. This time was one tenth of a second below the qualifying time of 10.8. He took the 200-meter, about 218.75 yards, in 22.6, one-tenth of a second above qualifying time. At Long Beach, Cal., preliminary trials will be run July 1 and 2. Later, at Palo* Alto, elimination trials will be held, preparatory to the meet at Los Angeles. Schlilaty plans to go as far as is possible in the elimination, hitting for the top. Previous to his enrollment at Bel-lingham Normal School, Schlilaty had two years track experience under Jay Kempkes, track coach at Everett high school. His first year, 1928, he went to Pullman to compete in the all-state track meet held there annually. In that year ^he copped third in the century and second in the 220-yard dash. The next year, 1929, he also went to Pullman, and in both events was second only to Paul Swift. Brown eyes, dark hair and an Everett blonde are his chief qualifications, and speed and style his merits. A certain girl, whose name I will not mention but who played the lead in "Liliom" winter quarter is the apple of his eye this spring, and as for her, she told me of his "speed and style." • He is taking a special course here at Normal, is a close friend of John Gable, lives with "Posy" Flowers and his merry-makers, and likes liver and onions—lots of onions. VIKING TENNIS MEN BEAT G. P. S. TWICE Few Matches Are Played but Six Men Win Sweaters The Vikings tennis team ended the season very successfully by defeating the College of Puget Sound twice. The first match was won by the Normal by a score of 5 to 2. The team took three single matches out of five, and made a clean sweep of the doubles, taking two straight matches. In the second match with the Tacoma Loggers we won again by a score of 5 to -2. This match was also won by the Normal by taking three single matches and both of the doubles. The Normal did not have any outstanding player this year, but as a whole it was a very good team. Poor weather made it impossible for the Vikings to play several of the matches scheduled for them this season, but they made a good impression by defeating the College of Puget Sound twice, which is considered a very strong team. The six men who won their letters in tennis for this season are Houghton, Wahl, Fisher, Lahtonen, Carr and Bond.

Class teams in speedball were chosen Tuesday and the last games of the quarter are being played off this week. The girls have had a fair break in weather conditions and have had successful turnouts this season. The freshman lineup is: Isaacs, Aisted, Flick, McLeod, Mcintosh, Schuehle, Shepard, Williams, Mac- Fadyen, McArthur and Peters. Sophomores: Tarbox, Thompson, Pilquist, De Witt, Howell, Davis, Ro-senquist, Wirsing, Jacobsen, Wampler and Price. The last games of the quarter will be played off Saturday morning. All girl athletes will participate in various sports throughout the morning. Letters and honors will be received at a banquet at Edens Hall for all girls who successfully participated in athletics during spring term. : O _ The sophomore girls' baseball team romped over the freshman girls Tuesday in a fast seven-inning game. Peggy Davis, of the sophomore team, played a nice game at right field, and Elva Pilquist, catcher, brought in the scores for the sophomores. The freshman team looked good and was expected to take the sophomores down the line, but they failed to quite keep up with their opponents and the score ended, 7 to 5. Violet Stranburg pitched for the freshmen and Alice Wampler for the sophomores. Phyllis McCloud, baseball manager, deserves the admiration given her for the good work done in managing baseball this quarter and for her loyal and enthusiastic attention at every game. — o Class Net Tourney Nears Completion In the class tennis tournament Sells defeated Dow, 6-4, 9-7, in the final match at 1 o'clock class Monday and Wednesday.

Frosh Score • The frosh garnered their first run in the first inning when Mathis' hit was stretched into a triple because of an error. He crossed home plate on Cook's hit. The third inning was a slugfest for the Frosh. O'Brien started it off with a three-bagger and he came in on a single by Mathis. Then Mathis scored on a triple by Cook, who scored when Dawes bunted. Iverson Improves During the rest of the game Ing Iverson held the Frosh down and they were unable to get more runs. This game was the first that Iverson has pitched this season and at the start he was a little wild. It might be said that these four runs were the result of walks and errors. Lineup The lineup for the game was as follows: Francisco, Cook and Campbell, fielders; Comfort, third base; Eacrett, shortstop; Smith, second base; Abbott, first base; Flint, catcher, and Iverson, pitcher. Frosh lineup: Hinkle, batt and Cook, outfielders; O'Brien, third; Mathis, shortstop; Kelley, second; Lirhus, first; Dawes, catcher, and Enquist, pitcher. Summary Ending the season the Vikings have a fairly good record. They have won two games and lost four games. All of these games were hard games and the victor well deserved the win. Also the Vikings scored 22 runs to their opponents' 42 and lost only two shutout games. Sweater Winners The lucky men who won their THe Downstairs Store at SILK STOCKINGS 75c Service Weights and Lace-top Chiffons sweaters in baseball are as follows: Loomis Iverson and Leatha, pitchers; Flint and Macomber, catchers; Abbott, first; Smith, second; Comfort, third; Eacrett, shortstop; Cook, Gallenger, Francisco and Campbell, fielders. However, some of these men have already won their sweaters in other sports and will not get another sweater. The highest diving record is 205 feet, 9 inches made by Wickham, native of Solomon Islands, at Melbourne, Australia, in 1918. Normalstad Shelter |j Nearly G6nstruc|ed Employed by the students ofithe school, two men are building a shelter cabin at Normalstad. Professor E. A. Bond says the men will remain there until the building is completed. It will be 24x18 feet in size, and will have one story. A stone fireplace will be built. ^ It is expected that with the shelter house finished, Normalstad irill be one of the popular outdoor rejh-dezvous of the Normal. *} PALS OF TRAIL AND HIGHWAY "Where Knowledge Combines with Common Sense" Success Business College Accredited by the National Association of Accredited Business Colleges Subjects Offered Accounting Shorthand Typing Spelling Penmanship Business English Letter Writing Commercial Law Rapid Calculation Filing Bookkeeping Machine Office Appliances Calculators Comptometer Monroe Dalton Victor Burroughs Miss Nora B.

" W A Z Z I S : ^ , ; //i'^-'-' •'•'• •: TE DIARY ; \ v By D. C. A. ^Diction—pronunciation is continually an issue with us out here in the West. Every other day we hear someone lamenting over the fact that "those Westenahs will nevah learn to pronounce' theyah wuds correctly." Thank the powers that be, we never will adopt the standards of that whining one. : It is true, we speak hurriedly and K? slur our words but then we've got so much to say and then too here in the West our auditors can grasp,our meaning the first time. Easterners, Bostonians and Oxfordians are always elevating their brows at the Western mode of speaking. Hmmph! I think it is high time we turned on the mispronunciation going on abroad. F. H. Vizetelly says, "Mis pronunciation abroad is due largely to the influence of the people of Oxford, who have steadily debased the coinage of English speech with emasculated voices and exaggerated idiosyncrasies. They cannot ask you to dinner; they ask you to 'din-nan'. They do not come to a lecture; they come to a lectchah'. They believe in 'cultchah', and instead of saying 'Oh, no',' they say, 'Oonoo' or 'AW naw', or even *Ow how'. The Oxford standard of speech t§^.Jut^»^ been flung at us. .Why shouia^lffibje? We have a standard ' lt;rf speech fli^Pe, which in my humble judgment is.^penor to the stilted standard of jijWrh-^f i gt;W^Jmmae^ or. Mayfair in the English capitbl. The old Oxford voice is dying out, for * even the English themselves term it "the abominable Oxford voice." Certainly we have difficulties of en-nunciation to overcome but, we won't add more erroneous pronunciations bycopying the Oxford pro^ nunciation. , " -—MV.S.N.S. DEVELOPMENT OF DANCING IS ILLUSTRATED IN NUMBERS BY FOREIGN BORN PERFORMER. DANCES ARE COSTUMED A former Normalite scribbler, upon reading my cblyum, said: "Oy Yoi—you have ruint Normalite by putting poetry therein!" Well, V. V. V., I'm just that kind of a p e s t - Ac!^ es ist shade!' I've seen many a light-headed vac-cuous pest, But a newspaper poet heals all the rest. There's nothing too tragic; at any old time He will pounce on an item so long as 'twill rhyme. Some man lights his gas and neglects to come back, And this maniac scribbles a twq-verse wisecrack. A groom beats his bride when he • eats her first meal,,-- And a poem appears that's a real •slapstick reel. A driver who's lighted, meets an auto that's not And ay verse runs the "funnys" a race that is hot. You just can't escape though you go to your doom For he sees that word rhymes with a funny one "boom", We'll wait 0 this pest bids this •life a farewell, Then he^ll likely go chuckling for that rhymes With H-—I. /V': gt;'".: '/ W.S.N.S. ::' .

She has spent the last three seasons in London and was proclaimed as the "queen of the dance" and "wonder dancer of Roumania." Her program will consist mainly of numbers that illustrate the development of dancing; it is titled by her as "Dancing Down the Ages." For each dance' she makes a change in costume. Such illustrative dances are the Egyptian "Ceremonial" dance, Greek "Mourning Dance," Greek "Nymph Dance," Roman "War Dance," "Anitra's Tanx," "Le Pigeon," Roumanian "Gypsy Dance." and others. Miss Lobel was born in Roumania, in the city of Vasliu. She has never attended school, but was brought up under secluded tutorship and in opposition to her parents' wishes she took up dancing and acting. After the German occupation of a part of Roumania. Sali ran away from home and, after many privations, often haying little to eat, she met with success in London and- later in Paris on the close of the World War. Tickets for Miss Lobel's program -spiE,be-available.rfox-50 cents and students will be admitted on their activity tickets.

These are but a few of the many surprises that will take place. On the stroke of twelve a large clock will chime put the magic hour. At that time the dance will be over and all the "Princes" will escort their respective "Cinderellas" home. .Those on the program committee are: Lovia Weiger, Bertha Hunt, and Anne Berkebile.'* On the program committee were: Alice Cow-gill, and Katherine Laube.

A minimum of forty girls must indicate that they will attend in order to give an inside informal. As only twenty-six girls showed any intention of backing the affair, it has been called off. Since the outside informal is. only for girls going to the Normal school who do not live in the dormitory, the girls of Edens Hall cannot attend the informal on February 28.

Social Science Club Elects New Officers; Keeler Presents Bill Although the final decision was not in their favor. Normal women debaters strongly upheld the negative of a debate held with the Washington State college, Tuesday, afternoon in the auditorium. Local debaters were: Miss Bessie Taylor and Miss Lois Thompson, while the State College team was represented by Miss Helen Telford and Miss Evelyn Nobach. Miss Winnie Spieseke, faculty member, served as chairman. The current question, "Resolved, that Ghandi has been a benefit to India," was probably -the biggest drawing card for the large representation which turned out. Another interesting feature of the argumentation was the cross examination method which was practiced. This system which allows one member of each team to cross examine the opposing speaker is comparatively new, having first been introduced in Whitman college, at Walla Walla. It requires the debate participants to be thoroughly versed on then-sub ject and also affords more interest, for the audience. The judge, Charles Strother, of the Speech department. University of Washington, briefly and accurately summed up the points contributed by each squad and also the commendable" qualities used in their presentation. '.* The Normal team was coached by James Carrell, of the Speech department, and the W. S. C. squad was trained by W. H. Veach. . The State college squad, which also includes Delora Weber and Irene Harms, has for the past two weeks been on a tour of the Northwest, meeting the leading collegs of this section. This tour will come to a termination following their next contest with the University of Washington. Tuesday's "debate was the first contest for V Normal debaters this season. ———o- GIVE DRAMATIC FARCE -* Dawson Hales and Robert K.

The Canadian government has set down a ruling that was apparently unfavorable with most of the students there at the college, but after an interview the editor of the "Ubyssey" was absolutely forbidden to make any editorial criticism of the government, faculty or school officials. lt; The forbiddence was disregarded and an editorial was printed that from all appearances expressed the opinion held by a great number of the students. Meetings were held, pledges and statements made, and the editor sus- , pended from school by the President for a period of two weeks. : With the editor went the publication. His support from the staff, departments, and many student officials was quite strong and practically unbroken. They claim that unless he is reinstated the publication will remain in the doldrums. On the back of a large pamphlet-program, announcing summer and special courses to be offered at the " U " , a "post declaration" edition Was published. It carries copies of letters from the president, statements i from students, and what the editor's future plans are. A large boxed off square: on: the special edition, was entitled " I n Memoriam" and was dedicated to the past memory of free speech. It carried'the inscription at the bottom, "She leaves us woebegone, forlorn, and puzzled. Free speech is dead and Alma Mater muzzled'. Whether Ronald Grantham was holding up a principle for the time being and for those who follow him in his position, as to the right of giving the students the straight facts and comments from the editor on matters that are of vital interest to the student body, is a question. No doubt the president is justified in his stand following the fact that he had set down a definite ban on any such comment. Both, it seems, have points in their favor and against them or this mis-understanding on the same question would not be so frequent in the various schools. The one big point lies with, "Shall a school press be allowed the full swing given the independent daily papers of the country?' •ofY(tfae Y;Bby';:a^^ the? gyrnnasiiini tonight iat, P 8:15.

Chandler has been getting too much publicity, and that he (the dove) has been left out in the rain. Here's a ; 'tip:-, :Show the boys what a good -skater you are and. all of your worries will be over. Some of the people around school seem to think that the Vikings were off and not playing up to standard in their game with the U. of W. Frosh last week. It wasn't anything of the sort in our opinion. Carver's men played a Wonderful defensive game, but had hard luck on them shots. The Vikings Were flaying a team that is rated much higher than themselves. The game featured close checking by both teams and this helped keep the score low. Somebody said that they saw Occie Thorsen putting four Valentines into the Valentine box the other day. That looks bad. And here I thought all of,the time that Occie was going to be a bachelor. Colin Campbell, Men's Club flash, secured a place for himself in the Hall of Fame as far as intramural basketball is concerned when he sent a long, long shot through the hoop that spelled defeat for the Thespians, in the second half play-off for first place. The score was tied at 18 all ..^jgithv. but a few seconds to play when Campbell got the ball way back in the Thespians' territory and let it go for a perfect basket, and with that shot the Men's Club earned the right to play the Philos for the intramural basketball championship. . The Vikings will have a rest this week-end prior to their last road trip, which will take them down to St. Martins and Centralia, where they will play return games with each of these schools. The follow^ ing week the Carverites will wind up the season in a game with the College of Puget Sound on Saturday, March 7. The Marine Ways of the Class A City League took one on the nose from the Blaine town team and lost their chances to represent this city in the Amateur Independent Basketball tournament to be held in Seattle a few weeks from now. Going into the eighth week of the foul shootoing contest, Jim Rork and George Woitulewicz are tied with converting 134 out of a possible 175 foul shots. Myron Chandler is third with 128. Bob Carboheau is fourth with 105 out of" 150 attempts. Bob has not taken his free throws for a seventh week yet. The standings for the four leaders looks like this: ... ;.:•'.., . RAJ ._, F.C. F.M.

I Campbell,,- t h e Men's club flash, was the star*of the day, and it was his basket in the last five and a half seconds of • play; that put .the game on ice for the Men's club. Both Teams Cautious Both teams played a cautious game for the first period and due to close checking there was quite a few fouls made by both sides. The score stood seven to six at the end of the first half in favor of the Men's club. Second Half Faster When the two teams came out for the second stanza they started things of f with a bang. The Thespians crept into the lead and held it until about four and a half minutes before the end of the game, when Campbell was put into t he line-up. Campbell sank a long shot after he was in the game six seconds and immediately followed this with a foul shot and then kept up the good work by swishing one in from the sidelines. The Thespians tried to stop him but the game that they played with the Philos the night before was beginning to tell on them and they just could not seem to tag the flashy Men's club forward. Walters, the Thespian center, held Jones down to two points and made four tallies himself. Hutchins was the high point. man for the losers with eight points, while Iver-son and Campbell shared scoring honors with seven points apiece for the winners. Was Three Cornered Tie This year's intramural tournament ended with three teams, the Men's club, Thespians and Philos tied for first place. To determine the champions of both the first half, the three teams mentioned had to play each other until two teams were eliminated. To make the matter worse, the Philos were the winners of the first half and were also tied with the other two teams for the second half. If the Philos won from the Thespians and the Men's club the tournament would be over, as they were the winners of the first half, but it seemed that such a solution could not be agreed on as the Thespians downed the Philos in their first encounter of the playoff. Then the Men's club and the Thespians played and the Men's club eliminated the Thespians. Now, the race is between the Men's club and the Philos, and anybody's guess is as good as anybody' else's and the teams are evenly matched and the team-that gets the break will probably win the game, although this writer is going to bet his dessert on the Men's club.

These games are slated for the 27th and 28th of this month, respectively. The Carverites have defeated both teams in previous encounters but both games were on the Viking's home floor. It is needless to say that the Rangers and the Central-ians will be tough meat at home. St. Martin's will, be met Friday night and then the team jumps over to Centralia and meets Coach Rair-don's warriors, the following night. The Rangers and Centralia are of about even strength as shown by their recent; game in which St. Martin's won by two points. The Vikings should be in top strength for the trip. Every man is able and in..suit for t he practice sessions. Dixon has fully recovered and Skotheim is rapidly : rounding into the form that put him on:the regular line-up during the frst part of the season. - Clark, is showing up well in scrimmage. Clark started the Frosh game and .made a good showing in his first game in a Viking uniform.- - - Centralia Strong Ogle ahdJWaitrak will give their opponents plenty of trouble. These two Rangers looked like basketball players in the last mix. Koski and Gelatt looked best for Centralia. Coach -Rairdon of Centralia will have his men on edge for the Vikings. Twice this year his teams have met Coach Carver's men and both times they have gone home on the short end of the score. This time they will do their best to reverse the order. Rairdon played under Carver at the Normal several years ago. There is a strong but good-natured rivalry between the two with Carver in the lead. The basketball season is on its last legs. This trip and one more game with C. P. S. is all that regains on the calendar. College of Puget Sound comes here" for the final game, March 7. — o — PHILOS LOSE WHEN CARTER SHOOTS WINNING BASKET. Winning the first game of the intramural playoff the Thespians defeated a strong Philo quintet 26- 23 in the small gym, Tuesday! Both the Philos' and the Thespians' playing was featured by ah air-tight defense and a lightning offense. When either team did break through the opposing defense, shots hailed, on the backboards from all angles; but not very many of the attempted, shots seemed to like the idea of dropping through the basket. The Thespians proved to be very weak on their -short shotsand "should lmye put the game on ice;if even a! small per gt; cent; of t h e i r attempts 'had.d^pppedi-ttooi^ • The Thespians held ri12-9 lead at half :'time//-/-: ;.'• / : . ^ / / - /-i-V;-. / * % : / : / • / / /PyerTanxiety/ oh/ t h e part of both'; ;$an^;:;resiu^d:::.m:/a p ^ - f p j j ^^ Stoddard ail going via the foul route! pians finally proved to be the downfall of t he Philos.

A Japanese musical program which included the showing of lantern slides of Japanese musical instruments as well as the playing and singing of compositions from that country featured the training school assembly this morning. The Oriental entertainment was the outgrowth* of an intensive study in connection with social science which the. fourth grade has been making on Japan, its people and fine arts. Two Japanese songs were sung by students at the assembly.and an authentic * Japanese composition was played to illustrate the decided difference in Oriental music and West^ ern music. One of the pupils told why the selections sound queer to us, explaining the different scale and musical instruments used by the Orientals. An Oriental composition of Tschaikowski's illustrating the spirit of Japanese music was also played. Erickson Speaks In addition to this program, lantern slides of the crude and limited Japanese, musical instruments were also showri. The music of Japan is, however, just one phase of the study which fourth .graders have been making about that country. The students took a special interest in Japan recently when Miss Erickson, technique teacher, gave them an interesting talk on her trip to the Orient. She told of the beliefs, dress, and customs of the people, in addition to a general description of. the country, showing numerous pictures of interesting places she visited during her trip. The former traveler also answered many questions asked by the students. A varied exhibition of the country is now being prepared by the graders, which will include dolls, shoes, boats, photographs, creative pictures, and several books and poems of Japan. aCPENNEYCQ 1309-1311 Cornwall Ave. "Where Savings Are Greatest" ALL KINDS Decorative Material Tally Cards, Place Cards, Napkins, Seals, Etc., for Washington's Birthday and Other Patriotic Occasions UNION PRINTING CO. 1421 Cornwall Ave. Phone 1264 Not Only Viking ^Boosters But We Are Viking Suppliers :of D.

These four candidates were selected in the primary election. Under the supervision of Julia Christensen, chairman of the election committee, the primary election was held last Tuesday in room 119. As the voting was done by ballots, Harriet Rickerson and Victor Dickr enson were in charge of the ballot boxes. Often in past elections regular voting machines as used in city elections have been used. However, because these machines were not available at the time, ballot boxes were used. This method will also be used for the general election Monday, in room 119. Moderate Vote Cast According to John Christy, student prexy, slightly less than 50 per cent of the student body voted. This figure, he said, is about the average, and was raised last year when about 70 per cent voted. In Tuesday's assembly candidates for the primary were presented to make campaign speeches. Those presented were: four quarter nominees, Christine Albers, Dick Albert, and Bill Pier-ron; three quarter nominees, Otto Finley, Marydel Conrad, Kenneth Burnet, and the petition candidate, Harry Goheen. The last named candidate was nominated by a petition of more than 25 signatures. The general election Monday will again be in charge of Julia Christensen. — o La Follette Speaks Audience of Approximately 1500 Hear Young Senator The United States is in a very dangerous position with commodity prices up, farm prices down, and consumers' purchasing power at a standstill, so Robert M. La Follette, Jr., America's youngest, and Wisconsin's popular United States senator, told the audience of approximately 1500 people, at the First Christian church on Dupont street, last Monday evening. If the American people could speak as a unit, he believed they would appeal to Roosevelt to use his power quickly to restore purchasing power: "even if he has to run over vested interests standing in the way". La Follette explained that his test of the Roosevelt policy towards^ national recovery was based mainly on the question: Is it going to restore purchasing power? He said his stand against the emergency banking act and the economy bill was predicated on this question. He flayed the National Economy league for its attack on World war veterans. The Senator quoted the following figures showing that in 1928 those persons with incomes of $5,000 and less bought 80 per cent of the goods produced, while all persons with incomes of $5,000 or over bought only 20 per cent. Numerous questions pertaining to present day conditions were asked Mr. La Follette, after his address, by the people in the audience. — O——: Exhibits Displayed In Arts Room 308 Students in Miss Hazel Plympton's art class have been working out problems adapted to classroom work. : On exhibit may be found tree panels that may be used in stage settings in junior-high school4 work, costume settings for plays, still life studies done in pastels, and many other drawings. 't Minnie Clay has made an interesting book on color .and costume, which is of much value to the art ' student. ThisX and many other drawings will be 'qn exhibit in the art room during the. following week. Anyone interested is tovited4» come A8^-;view-\tnem^ "-'.^v Songs, music, lights and gayety will be offered at the Homecoming pep assembly next Friday morning under the direction of the yell leaders. Virgil Griffen's eight-piece orchestra is to furhis^ the music for the cabaret, which is the idea to be carried out. James Butler, former s t u d e nt prexy, is filling the bill as master of ceremonies. Bill Allan and Johnny Lensrud are offering vocal solos, Frank Pratt will strum his" banjo and the Valkyrie club is giving a stunt. Turkish Dance Feature Dick Albert and Bill Allan are to present a Turkish dance as only Albert and Allan can. Griffen will offer a few piano solos, a tap dance is in order and a pep talk by Coach Charles Lappenbusch will complete the night club floor show. Homecoming booklets, which go on sale November 15, will be sold at the assembly through the aid of the Valkyrie club. . Final announcements for the pep rally, rec hour, luncheon, game and dance will be made by Chairman Kean. School songs and yells that will raise the roof are the hopes of the yell kings, who suggest that students come prepared to take an active part. o- "Growing Up With Books," Is Theme Of'33 Book Week November 12 to 18 Inclusive Are Dates of Fete "Grow up with books" is the theme for 1933 book week held Nov. 12 to Nov. 18. This year Book Week will celebrate its fifteenth anniversary. A great many other weeks have come and gone since the first observance of them, the children's book festival in 1919, but Book Week has been widely observed from year to year and has found a permanent place on the calendar of Children's fete days. Special Program on Friday The boys and girls will be allowed to take initiative themselves in school library and book plans for the fifteenth celebration of its existence with adults giving discreet guidance, but letting the younger generation take the reins. The enthusiasm of the children who have already discovered the fun of reading will be contagious and the exhibits and program they are "planning will lead other boys and girls into the world of books. The second, third, fourth, and sixth grades of the campus training school are making exhibits. A book review program will be given by the seventh and eighth grades, also, on Friday, November 17, at 3 p. m., for students and at 8 p. m. for the parents and friends. —o New Courses To I5e Given During Winter The new schedule for winter and spring quarter has already been arranged and pre-registration is going on. Some of the new courses offered are: Social problems, Soc. 102, under Dean James Bever; English 53, a survey of English literature, under Dr. A. C. Hicks, and French 102, a new course offered for students wishing work in third year French. Juniors and seniors will be interested to note the new course offered by Dr. Irving Miller in philosophy. Mr. H. C. Ruckmick also offers special work in industrial arts for those students interested. A Scout leadership class will be held on Monday night at 7:30 by Mr. R. E. Crompton for those who need scout work. A special course, P. E. 103, which will deal in girls' club work, will be offered by Miss Ruth Weythman during the winter quarter. —_ p Opaque Slides Show Interesting Designs Opaque slides were used in Miss Breakey's art I class this week to demonstrate different types of .designs.

Klipsunof 1932 Receives Honors In Press Rating First Class Given to Year Book Edited by E. Morrison Last Spring Vikings Will Clash With Lutheranites Handicapped Vikings Will Fight the Strong Lutheran Team Here Today CHANCES EVEN ON OUTCOME Lutherans Have Pair of Strong Backfield Men Ratings have been received from the National Socialistic Press association by Eileen Morrison, editor of last year's Klipsun. The summary of the scores is as follows: Plan of book and theme, 140; album and classes, 50; organization, activities, athletics, 140; administration and faculty, 50; school life, 95; financial status, 50; editing and make-up, 100; originality, novelty, innovation, 30; mechanical considerations, 205, totalling 860 points out of a possible 1000." The Klipsun was up to standard in a large percentage of departments except for originality, novelty and innovation, in which the least poits were made. For two consecutive years, 1932, and 1933, the Klipsun -has received first class ranking in the National Scholastic Press association. Both years the annual entered in competition, it brought first rank honors. This year's staff hopes to bring recognition for a third time in,a row to the school's year book. Normal Vikings will meet the Pacific Lutheran college this afternoon under handicap of injuries received in the game at Olympia against St. Martin's last Saturday. Normal's chances of winning the game seem to be waning with several men injured. Sinko has a bad knee and may not be in the starting lineup, while both Williams and Miller have been out with injuries since the game last Saturday. Smick and Ullin have had intestinal flu. When asked for his opinion on the game, Coach Chuck Lappenbusch replied: "In the shape we are in now we'll be lucky if we hold our own in that game. It'll take all we've got to keep up with their fast backfield and passing attack." Lutherans Look Strong Although they have had a bad start thus far in the season, the Lutherans are considered a strong team and have been developing their backfield with a strong passing attack, with which they scored against St. Martin's. Moe, a halfback from Anacortes, is rated as an outstanding back, combining his expert passing with a pair of hips that are more than a little difficult to tackle. Two ends have been doing more than their share of catching passes, while Peterson, a big tackle, has been playing a hard fighting game. The two teams will average about the same in weight so that the Lutherans' only advantage will be that Normal is handicapped through injuries. The lineup has not been decided definitely. Moffet Will Speak Af Alkisiah Meeting Miss Moffet of the Campus school will speak at the meeting of the Alkisiah club Monday, November 13. She will discuss the traditions of the Alkisiah club, which is one of the oldest organizations in the school. Miss Moffet was one of the first advisers of the club. Miss Cummins will tell the girls about the advantages of joining the Junior Federation of Women's Clubs. The object of the Alkisiah club is to further the appreciation of music, art and travel. Miss Mathews, who is a new member of the music department, is the adviser of the Alkisiah this year. o — Interesting Speaker Relates Experiences Mrs. Charles Judd, of Vancouver, B.

We have become most proficient in refusing . to pay for a project or a commodity if we can possibly defer the process until some, indefinite future date Putting it bluntly, we are cowards. Individuals and corporations have mortgaged their futures to a crushing degree. Political bodies have vied' with one another in piling up huge bond issues. Sewers, municipal abattoirs, art museums, football stadiums, and thousands of other projects have been financed by bond issues. When these works have been amortized they willhave cost the taxpayer two or three times the original price—and some of these structures are going to be obsolete long before we are . through paying for them! . We wonder what future generations will think.of us for building dams and power houses (by saddling the cost onto their backs) which we don't need and ; won't need for years to come. We might go on ad-infinitum listing the financial foibles of the high pressure twenties and the delirious thirties. As human beings, we are too prone to accept things as they are. We live hoping for a superman to come and show us the chrysalis of a newer, better world and lead us out of our financial morass—someone who has the courage to make us pay as we go. No one miracle man nor group of such people can pull us out. It is only when we have an aroused, intelligently interested citizenry that we can hope to progress financially. "The War to End War" Tomorrow we will pay our respects to millions of men who died fighting a war to end war—a war to make the world safe for democracy. Dispassionately viewing the events of the past fifteen years we can say, without hesitation, the Treaty of Versailles is fundamentally a tool of Mars; further, old line diplomats are succeeding in keeping the world safe for hypocrisy. Human progress is slow, painfully slow to youth. Perhaps someday men will live and understand and spend their time doing useful things: building beautiful buildings to enjoy and not destroy, writing poetry which sings the song of a wholesome life and not the song of hate; playing with something less suggestive than wooden swords; watching the sun go down at the end of the day and planning for the next without fear in their hearts. • o Welcome—Student Opinions The present editorial council will continue the policy of welcoming student opinions. These letters must be signed with the student's name and should not be more than three hundred words long. All communications must be on the editor's desk in The Northwest Viking office the Monday preceding publication. The editorial council reserves the right at all times to refuse to publish any article if in their opinion it is inimical to the best interests of the school. Nor does the publication of a letter indicate that the Viking editorial council in any way agrees with the contributor. o Hurrah for La Follette! It was refreshing to hear Senator La Follette, Jr., defend the fads and frills of education at the Social Science club luncheon last Monday. We were constantly wishing some of our misguided tax reductionist "friends" could have been there. Mist We Have^0^^djin^? lliterary This and vTMt By Mary Jane Holden Don Norlin's RAMBLTNGS Have you ever lain awake at night and thought out a plot for a play and then in the morning awake to find all traces of your brain child gone? Just think of all the possible great works of literature that have gone back to nowhere just because you didn't have the energy to climb out of that nice warm bed. The other evening when walking home in the fog that swirled around me and blotted the trees-into ghostly shrouded figures, I couldn't help thinking of all the mystery plays that are written wherein some one is mysteriously murdered in the fog. So wrapped in thought was I that when a dog dashed at me from a porch step I broke into a cold sweat and nearly broke into a run. MAGAZINES on Parade By Holden Literary Digest readers have had their vote taken on the repeal question, and preceding presidential and mayorial elections—what do you think is next? Readers' radio preferences are to be tabulated! Certain persons complain of an over-abundance of jazz, crooners, "blues" singing, and so on, so the Digest is calling for consensus of opinion. In American Mercury for November is "A Glance at thexNewsreels", by Robert Littell. Littell, a member of the New Republic staff, bemoans the fact that although suffering in the nation is widespread, "the newsreel camera continues placidly, lazily to feed us a diet that is mostly marbles champions, prepared statements, parades, puns, and young men who can play the piano with mittens on their hands." "The chances are that she will make a very decent citizen", concedes Alzada Comstock, in "The College Girl: 1933 Model". This is in the November number of Current History, In "Hitkrism comes to America" (Harpers) Johan Smertinko explains the important difference between • anti-Jewish prejudice and anti-Semitism... The latter is the oldest political stratagem known-to mankind, the expedient of establishing a popular scapegoat for mass discontent, while anti-Jewish prejudice is merely a state of mind. ;.,, -:. Fashions Fancies By Beth Hankins For this week's model I have chosen another "Don't Dress" frock. This is the appropriate costume when you go straight from work or campus to tea at four or dinner at five-thirty. The model is rough crepe in black, with a moderate leg-o'- mutton sleeve and capelette shoulder. The lines of the skirt are slim and smootne and the waistline is finished with a chic rolled white chalk crepe collar which drops in back, opening with tiny green buttons. Accessories consist of black beret type suede hat with green brow-clasp to touch it off, and black suede gloves, purse, and shoes.

WA^ s 13-0 lit Exciting Grid Game; Rangers Score Early Vikings Come Within One Foot of Scoring Touchdown in First Quarter BANGERS SCORE ON PASS St. Martins Tallies. Touchdown on Power Plays . A rugged St. Martins eleven played brilliant football to submerge a "Vvaliant' Viking team 13 to 0, in a thrill-filled homecoming contest played at Olympia, last Saturday. '-The Rangers' touchdowns came in the first and fourth quarters. The downfall of Lappenbusch's pupils began with a suddenness t h a t! was bewildering, when- the Saintsj scored in the early] minutes of play, Art Bagley kick-rj ed off, the ba going to St. Martins' 10-yard «line,| where McMillan, C a p t a i n ^ ^ Ranger left halfback, took the ball and returned it to his own 32-yard mark. McMillan then packed the leather on two successive thrusts for a first down oh the; 48-yard stripe On a series of deceptive line bucks - and off-tackle runs the college progressed to their own 29-yard line. McMillan Scores I t was from 'the 29-yard mark .that the elusive McMillan scored on a spectacular line smash. He literally ran through the entire Viking team and at least half a dozen Normal men touched him as he went spinning and sidestepping by. On the try for point, McMillan's kick "was blocked; however, Normal was offside and on the next play a line buck put the ball across to make the score 7 to 0. Undismayed, an enraged Viking eleven then began a savage attack of their own. Normal took the kick-off and put the ball on their 43- yard line before Bagley was forced to kick. His punt was. taken by the Rangers on their 30-yard mark. On the next three plays the college gained eight yards. t; Vikings Make Drive .•Normal's big scoring opportunity , came on the next play when Hoban and Prender smeared St. Martins' punt; Normal recovering on the college's 25-yard line. Sinko dashed off five yards, but the St. Martin's forward threw. Hoffman for a two-yard loss. Sinko then reeled off seven yards and Hoffman made it first down on the Rangers' 14-yard line. Hoffman gained one yard; Sinko four and Miller two. Sinko made a first down by a one-inch margin on St. Martin's four-yard line.. Rangers Hold . Here the Rangers braced and Chet Partis, former Viking star, hurled Hoffman back for no gain on the first play. Sinko, on two successive plays gained three yards which placed the ball within the one-yard mark. Sinko was stopped by Donovan §n the Rangers' one-foot line. 'St. Martins kicked out of danger. -• Saints Score on Pass The Rangers tallied their second touchdown in the fourth quarter, after they had worked the ball down . to Normal's 15-yard line, on a powerful drive that the Vikings were unable to stop: A pass, McMillan to Frye was good; and Frye stepped over the goal for six more points The try for point failed. MILES DEFEATS LINDSLEY 2UP New Links Champion Is Crowned After Thirty-six Holes of. Close Play v Bun Miles won the golf championship for the fall quarter last Wednesday afternoon when he defeated Bob Lindsley, 2 up. These two links stars were so closely matched that it required 36 holes to settle the title. They played an eighteen-hole match last Friday but they ended all square and were .forced to quit because of darkness. Neither player showed any of hs usual form in the match Wednesday, although Miles was hittting some beautiful drives. Coming up to the seventeenth tee, the match was all square, but here Lindsley pulled his tee shot into the rough, and looked up on his niblick shot to the green. Miles won the hole to go one-up. Again on the eighteenth hole the sports writer looked up on a niblick shot, while Miles got down in par figures to win the hole and the match. Above are four Vikings who will be out today against Pacific Lutheran. Williams and Hoban will likely be in the starting lineup, with Davidson and Ames ready as reserves. From left to right are: Ames, tackle; Davidson, quarter; Williams, half, and Hoban, tackle. Sport Slants By Ralph Shenenberger Sports in Foreign Nations Reviewed W. A. A. Athletic Coach Talk on Her Recent World Tour Gives Sports ra foreign countries was the subject upon which Miss Weyth-man, women's athletic coach, who recently returned from a world tour, addressed the members of the W. A. A. at their meeting Tuesday afternoon. N Though Miss Weythman's views-of the sports in other nations were from, a spectator's standpoint, she went into detail as to those featured in certain countries such as Austria and Japan. Viewing the countries as a whole, Miss Weythman expressed the opinion that foreign sports are participated in more for the championship possibilities, than for | the pure enjoyment of the games. I In the University of Leipzig, in Germany, Miss Weythman found the trend to be one of concentration of sports, meaning that instructions are given in only one athletic activity at a time, this being learned thoroughly before another is attempted. Before returning to the United States, Miss Weythman attended the Wimbledon tennis matches, in itag-land, in which Mrs. Helen Wills Moody, Helen Jacobs, and other well known tennis players were contestants. While witnessing these matches Miss Weythman secured motion picture views of the players in action, which she plans to show the W. A. A. members at a later date. VIKINGS WIN 31-24 Captain Walt Miller, Art Bagley, Hoban, Odell, Sinko, Sulkosky, and Finley played outstanding ball for the Vikings, while Donovan, Hager-ty, McMillan and Sjostrom sparkled for the college. J . The Northwest Viking basketball team won their second game of the intramural basketbalL season last night when they defeated the Co-op, 31 to 24, in a ha«d fought battle. "The newspaper men built up their: lead in the last few minutes of play when Keen, Hudson, and Stone started hitting the basket. At the end of the first half the score was tied at 13 all. Both teams looked good at times and showed a fine passing attack. Hudson,. Viking forward, was high point man of the game with 14 points and was followed closely by his teammate Stone, who scored 12 points. For the Co-op, Vander-griend and Starlund lookea good. Go get 'em, Vikings! We've always heard that the student body is the twelfth man on any football team. The students of this school are the peppiest they have been for many years and are back of the team 100%. Now it's all up to the other eleven men that fight for W. S. N. S. * * * * * Pacific Lutheran is today bringing up a team that is light and fast, but they figure that "the bigger they are—!" But we might as well warn them that if our squad shows the fight and spirit this afternoon that was displayed against C. P. S. two weeks ago, the score will be at least 14 to 12 in Bellingham's favor. * * * * * Art Bagley surely booted them out in the coffin corner at St. Martins last week. Once the ball went out on the 7 and once on the 9-yard line. Both he and Capt. Walt Miller were outstanding on the defense also. * * * * * Donovan and Partis, former Vikings, seemed to enjoy nothing better than to smear the Normal backs when they were booming ' for a touchdown. * * * * * Odell also deserves special mention for his second half playing. Sulkosky's enthusiastic spirit was all over the field per usual. Daniel's hall is seriously in the running for the Intramural basketball crown. They defeated the Hap lequins 46 to 9, while the best the N. W. Vikings could do Was 37 to 13 against the same outfit. The Vikings were a preseason favorite to win the championship (at least in the Viking office). * * * * * Ames, a Daniel's hall forward, also seems to be in the high scorer contest. Sixteen points in a game is quite good for a starter, but of course opposing guards may decide in favor of holding him down the rest of the season. We'll have to watch him in the next game. * * * * * The Coast conference football fans should., see., fireworks., tomorrow. Washington is going to try to stay near the top when they battle California... Barring a tie either Oregon or Oregon State will taste defeat tomorrow.:. The latter team has been tied once to mar their otherwise perfect record. Stanford's sophomores are going to shoot the works and try to spill U. S. C. nice and hard. More power to them! * * * * * And then if you want to stay close to home tomorrow and watch a cat and dog scrap mixed with bang-up football, go over to Bat-tersby field for the annual What-com- Fairhaven scrap. With the W. A. A. Volleyball still remains the most active sport of the W. A. A., Thursday marking the conclusion of its second week of intramurals. Victory to date goes to the Blues, captained by Margaret Starlund. Last week victory went to the Reds, who had previously been defeated by the Blues, but who rallied in their contest with the Whites and defeated them with a game score of 2-0 and point scores of 21- 20 and 21-8. Monday the Whites were defeated again, this time by the Blues, who scored 2-0 in games and 21-7 and 21-16 in points. The latter game was a closer contest than the scores would seem to indicate, at one time the Whites being four points in the lead.

To Hear Adele Jones Talk LaFoUette Stresses Education Present Day Financial Mix-up Was Caused Largely by Ignorance; Not by Unbalanced Budget By HAROLD WHITMAN "Education is the most important problem by far in the present-day situation. In my opinion schools are just as important for public expenditures as the fire or police department," stated Senator Robert M. La Follette vto two Viking scribes as he was preparing to leave Edens hal after attending the luncheon given in his honor by the Social Science club. v Senator La Follette said that in his opinion the so-called frills of education are as essential or more so than the well-known three R's. "Ask any business man how much they sell to uneducated people. You will find that the majority of purchases are made by people with at least a grade school education." This "little man of the Senate" was born on a farm near Madison, Wis., thirty-eight years ago. He attended the public schools through high school and then went on to the University of Wisconsin for two years. Ill health then made it impossible for him to continue his formal education. Following this he worked as secretary in his father's office for six years, but was forced to go to California for his health. He returned to Wisconsin to fill out his father's Senate term in 1925. In 1928 he was elected to the Senate for the term ending 1935. Next to Henry Clay, La Follette is the youngest man ever to have been elected to the United States Senate.

This banquet, which will be held Thursday night, November 16, is for the purpose of getting the faculty and the students better acquainted with each other, and for promoting greater cooperation between them. Each member of the Board of Control will bring one guest. Old Program Is Held By Eighth Grade Sponsoring Peace Program Honoring Amistice Day is Presented to Campus School Honoring Armistice day with a program devoted to world peace and the advancement of better international relations, the eighth grade of the Campus school sponsored a program, which was presented before the rest of the Campus school at their weekly assembly this morning at 9:00 o'clock. The program was based on studies made by the eighth grade class in its work with current events. The plan student members of the board who followed out in the program was Dress and design were the topics upon which Miss Adele Jones, former dean of women, talked to the Blue Triangle members at their weekly meeting last Wednesday. Attendance at this meeting, which was held at the Y. W. C. A., took the place of the regular meteing usually held at school. Further plans have been made for the meetings to be held in the new clubhouse, which is the model bungalow behind the school building. The school has wired and connected it for electricity and it is to be furnished and decorated by the club members. Mr. Herbert Ruckmick, industrial arts instructor, is assisting in the finishing of the interior. o— • History III Class Discusses Problems are still in school are to be invited, and the number of guests will be about thirty. Bert Gallanger is the general chairman of the banquet and has charge of all the arrangements concerning it. Vernon Leatha will be the toastmaster of the affair, and Dr. Bond is in charge of the refreshments. The evening will be spent in dining, dancing and playing cards. Patrons. and patronesses for the event will be: President and Mrs. C. H. Fisher, Mr. and Mrs. Sam Carver, Miss Mildred Jewell, Miss Ruth Piatt, Miss Linda Countryman, Mr. and Mrs. Donald Bushell and Mr. Charles Lappenbusch. o CALENDAR "How to Solve the Unemployment Problem" is the question up for discussion in the history III class. Various points and phrases in regard to the subject have been brought out and the class has been very much interested in the question. The everlasting question of the NRA will be discussed in the near future. o • [ Student Opinion - j Editor The Viking: Since several of my acquaintances have, with the customary ability of the American people in misinterpretation, magnified my stand against football, rec hours and the multitudinous other inanities described as student activities, into a rabid pleasure- hating mania, I feel that I owe it to myself to explain my point of view. I am not the spiritual brother of Anthony Comstock; my platform was based upon an intellectual antipathy to the presence of the above mentioned institutions in a school that pretends to college caliber. I know that the majority of those attending most colleges would disagree with me; yet it is my opinion that extra-curricular activities should not be forced upon the recalcitrants of whom I am one. . The connection of these extracurricular activities with the school serves only to waste the time which students could better spend in reading, cogitation or discussion. Insofar as a person is incapable of enjoying these, to that extent is he unfitted to receive a higher education. HARRY GOHEEN. FRIDAY, November 10. 2:00 p. m.—P. L.

This current event class is a discussion.group developed on informal lines which permit the raising of questions. The main topics which are discussed are prepared in advance in order that there may be a better understanding through previous study of the topics under discussion. This morning the current events class met before the assembly of the Campus school and discussed only such matters as pertained to the World war, placing greatest emphasis upon the attempts made before and after that period upon world peace. In a discussion of war and war implements it was brought out that while schools everywhere in the country are closing for lack of funds the U. S. navy was scrapping, three years after their building, sixteen destroyers and battleships, built at a cost of $40,000,000. This sum it was stated would be more than adequate to build two universities the size of Columbia in New York, the largest university in the world. The "good will" flight of Col. Charles Lindbergh to Mexico was cited as a move for better international feeling. Here too was placed the work of the Red Cross, the Junior Red Cross, the movement of youth through the world, and the Boy Scout and their international Jamborees, the last of which was held in Austria. In their discussion the group made use of charts, maps, and graphs to make the explanations more plain. The ideaTwhich the whole program upheld was that Armistice day should be a memorial to everlasting peace instead of a reminder of a war. Sketchers, paint splashers and line drawers, take notice! Tonight, as the old town clock strikes eight, one of the greatest, most stupeduous, absolutely colossal parties in the history of this school will take place. It is none other than the freshman party, having as its theme, a Bohemian art studio, with decorations, refreshments, and everything, modeled accirdingly.

FASHION CFINIS By D.CUSTER ANDERSON M: There seems to be a worldwide business upturn. The Northwest is especially benefited by the advancing wheat prices the gain being estimated to be about $20,000,000. Well, if things keep on going up we may have more than just a vacation for which to be thankful on the approaching Thanksgiving. Fundamental conditions in South America have been strengthening and flood conditions in South China are reported rapidly improving. The general tone of markets in Great Britain is becoming stronger since the abandonment of the gold standard. Coal, .textiles and automobile trades there particularly show remarkable gain. Improved conditions are shown in Canada, probably due to higher grain prices. We hope that these conditions will continue to rise and perhaps it may affect local condi-tions, and (dare we think it?) maybe, we may get our new athletic building! Whoops! —W.S.N.S. It has been recently calculated by Dr. Hubble, of the Mount Wilson Observatory, that the amount of i matter in the universe compared to the immensity of space is equal to one grain of sand compared to the earth. An interesting observation but probably mere guesswork to give science instructors some awesome comparison to make for gasp- „ ing students. After all, we do not know how big the universe is and then, is there such a thing as "mat- . ter"? How can there be since the uni- : Verse is made up of small units of . positive and negative electricity and the universe only an arrangement of electrons and protons that appear to be solid matter? Oh, well. . . . W.S.N.S. YE PROF'S DIARY: Yor auld greigh-heded professor ; lean ownly shache hiz hed in egg-zasperashun at thee thyngz wimmen Igyiryll clue tew their heds.

Dad—r"Son, I've told you a thousand' times to keep out of that eel lar!» . - {CALENDAR-^ Confident of redeeming themselves and making up for their two tri-Normal defeats, Sam Carver's Vikings will engage the powerful College of Puget Sound eleven Saturday, on Waldo Field, at 2:15. Still handicapped by injuries, the Vikings will take the field tomorrow knowing that they are capable of playing a spirited brand of ball, as they demonstrated last Saturday before 2000 fans against the strong Ellensburg Wildcats. Shelton, Falk-ner and Sutton are still nursing old injuries. Both teams have tasted defeat in their previous games, and both are anxious to get back in the win column. Two weeks ago the Vikings took a jolt,,when they journeyed to Cheney, but came- back with that do-or-die spirit and gave Ellensburg a scare and almost defeated them. Had the Blue and White been able to score in the first half, last week, the result probably would have been different. Carver to Work Them Hard Last week's game proves three things. First, they lack a scoring punch. And you can't win games if you can't score. Second, their tackling: was ragged, anjd, third, they block like a high school team. For this week's menu, Carver, drilled them late into the night-in the old fundamentals of blocking and tackling. Scrimmages were practically omitted. Sandberg Returns Up from Tacoma comes one of Bellingham's favorite sons. Coach Roy Sandberg, of the Loggers, and former Ellensburg and Washington State line coach, is well known both by the teams he has turned out and by his own athletic ability. Sandberg is a former Viking grid star. He would like nothing better than to come back to his old stamping grounds and show the natives how football is played. Wherever he takes his teams they always are a big drawing card. This is his first season at the Tacoma school and Sandberg already has some potential stars in his squad. Among a few of his outstanding performers who will show their wares tomorrow are, Sterling and Koski, quarterbacks; Gagnon, center, who is the lightest man on the squad, and Captain Pettibone, end. William's Kicking Sensational A likely candidate to break into the tussle will be Chuck Williams, whose kicking last week, in the Lantern Purchased For Art Students 11 Through the attainment of Miss Hazel Breakey, who was awarded / a Carnegie Scholarship last summer, the Art department will receive a Combination Classroom Lantern;- The scholarship provides that the Art department of the school is allowed $100 to buy something for the classes. This lantern, which has been selected, shows different kinds of picture material; slides, filmslides, microscope slides and opaque copy. Miss Breakey says, "We are looking forward to a great deal of pleasure from the use of this lantern. It will mean much added interest in the art work." W CLUB INFORMAL TO BE NOVEMBER 20 Transportation Will Be Furnished at Ten Cents a Person AUTHORIZATION FOR LETTING COUTRACTS ON KLIPSUN MADE Hutchins, Homecoming Chairman, Unanimously Voted Letter of Appreciation OLD KLIPSUNS ON SALE er The "W" club informal will be held Friday, Nov. 20, at che Chuck-anut Shell under the direction of a committee composed of Sivert Skotheim and Vernon Leatha, according to plans just announced. Because of the small amount of space the number of the couples has been limited to one hundred, and first come, first served. The sale of tickets will start next Monday. They can be bought from any "W" club man. The price will be one dollar. White and Blue The programs probably will be leather W's with a white background but with the blue motif predominating. Neither the decorations nor the orchestra has been decided on yet. In the decorations the "W" idea probably will be carried out. Transportation Provided Because the Chuckanut Shell can only be reached by cars and many of the men do not have automobiles, transportation is being provided. Russell Nyberg's bus will take the students down and bring them back. The fare will be ten cents a round trip. Special taxi, rates are being worked for but as they will still be quite high the students are not advised to use that kind of transportation. —o Authorizing the Klipsun editor and business manager to make contracts for the printing arid engraving of the 1932 Klipsun was the feature of the Board of Control meeting, Tuesday afternoon. Earl Hutchins general chairman of the eighth annual homecoming program, was unanimously voted a letter of appreciation. The Board considered the event most successful, and much credit is due Mr. Hutchins for his work in organization and supervision. Letters. of thanks were voted to both the Bel-lingham Drum and Bugle corps, and the Firemen's band. Klipsun Contracts Legalized Contracts for printing and engraving the 1923 Klipsun were recommended to the Board by the editor and business manager. The Board confirmed the contract made by Cathleen Hill. Klipsun editor, with the Western Engraving company of Seattle to do all engraving work for the annual this year. It was also voted to empower the Klipsun business manager, Charles Dowell, to contract with the Union printing company for their bid of $1160.80. Old Klipsnns For Sale Charles Dowell was granted the right to sell the remaining thirty-five 1931 Klipsuns. These Klip-suns are extra ones on hand and the business manager recommended that they be sold for half price to increase the Klipsun fund. The original price of the Klipsun is $3.00. Board Sets Policy After considerable discussion regarding the soliciting of advertis-- ing for publication of anything relative to the Normal school, the Board adopted a definite policy to govern such conditions.

These thirteen years have softened the intense emotions of all peoples, memories have been dimmed, hatreds have vanished as also have strong devotions, all probably for the better. No longer are Germans the hated people. We look with mingled shame and ridicule at some of the things we as individuals and as a nation said and did in that war period of mental incompetency. In the print shop of the Normal school are posted some of the U . S. government "Pep talks" printed during the war. They decry the "evil Kaiser" and hopefully state that "Those who do the most toward winning this war will receive the most in benefits after the war is over." War cannot be carried on without hatred. Some of us refuse to hate. War must also mobilize intense devotion and love for country. Others refuse to do this. They do not personify the nation and worship it. The nation becomes just a tool; a tool for them to use and to aid them. We are no longer the chosen people. Our country is no longer faultless. The government becomes just a form and a device to work for the common good. When something becomes obsolete it is usually repaired or replaced. Reason, rather than emotion, will save us and end wars. Armistice day marked the beginning of a period of reason. Thirteen years afterwards, the question still is "Will reason or emotion control the world?" Cal Coolidge held a shotgun and killed a skunk; his wife held a flashlight, press notices say, and both held their breath, we dare say. Not more than three years ago we were all reading "The Great American Band Wagon" and hashing it over from cover to cover... Then the other day we asked someone about it and they had never heard of it. o O——o And we were almost sure it was something "great. American" that would live and be talked about through years of literature. But we are still waiting for the great Amercian nooel. We went to a lecture after which something was to be given away. The audience consisted entirely of women and some of the nicer women in the community—we were never in such a scramble in our lives... We were hit on., top., of., the., head, scratched and generally shaken up. o O——o And yet "My dear, do you mean to tell me you enjoy wrestling matches. Men trying to kill each other! So vulgar!

D. Griffith, chairman of the faculty educational research committee. "In many high schools, not in Seattle, when a student signifies his intention of attending a university, his grades are bolstered regardless of his ability to continue in college, or else he is never given a grade below C," Dean Griffith said. Therefore, co-operation of the high schools is necessary in order to secure a more accurate grading of students. »«»—«•— lt;•—•••—•'•A Jukes, Inc.

Won't you tell us, Mr. Bond, do you use a crystal, gaze at the stars, or perhaps read the palms of the football boys? Anyhow, we thank you and wish you continued success in the field of necromancy. It certainly comes in handy. We take your word, says, "WILDCATS C l V E N SLIGHT EDGE," and slight it was. Yes, Mr. Bond, dopesters are born, not made. Edlii son an Agnostic? • The death of Thomas A. Edison has brought much speculation and comment as to what his religious convictions were. Religious leaders have aimed to deduce from his numerous and varied statements that he was a believer in a Supreme Intelligence. Atheists and Agnostics quote from his published statements arid claim him as one of their number. Edison himself, seemingly never came to a hard and fast decision on the subject of immortality. His views then appear most harmonious with those of the Freethinkers, although he was generally spoken of as "a confirmed agnostic." The New York Sun said of Edison that "no one who knew him could have doubted his belief in and reverence for a Supreme Intelligence; and Jus whole life, in which the ideal of honest, loving service to his fellow man was predominant, indicated faithfully those two commandments wherein lies *all the law and the prophets.' " We find in the words of Edison himself, however, "I can not conceive of such a thing as a spirit. Imagine something which has no Weight, no material form,, no, mass, in a word, imagine nothing." He also said at one time that he did not believe in a "conscious life after death in any form, spiritual or '"; physical." ' The latest declaration Edison made on the subject of immortality before his health failed, was that his belief in a life after death was about ^*'fijfty-fifty.'* Arid all this boils down to our own;opinion that immortal-v^ iry^ ^ haye an intelligent opin- ; ibnCorie^w^ P' \'-;-; Thirteen short years ago we were waiting breathlessly for the final word that should end the struggle that involved all the great world powers and millions of precious lives. o O o It was like a maddening dream —we lived only from one newspaper to the other—the most important thing—the casualty list. o O—o When we think of that gruesome thing termed modern warfare, something way down inside of us cries out, "O, let there be no more war. Peace, blessed peace!" o O—r—o William Lyon Phelps says: __"If the nations would show a willingness to make one-tenth of the sacrifices for peace that are demanded for war, peace would become a reality". 0 O—r—O At the end of the day We found a tittle cabin beside a bubbling stream. The porch was covered with yellow maple leaves and the fireplace told us it had held dreams. o O—r-Oj-— But, as my friend said, the dreams are such flimsy things arid when they have flown are only shadowy memory to turn over in your mind. 0 O-—Q Days go on—a silly round of things—nothing tangible—nothing secure—night., is., darkness—day. is light—we laugh; it is empty, mirthless— we cry; that too is without meaning. • ——O——O—r—° And then one day we hear the church-bells in evening at the end of a wild purposeless day and we find some peace in their chime. gt; '-r—o—-brr-r-O-r—;-''.' .;•'.•: gt;:•; •''.. t[:J!iuey. ieem^to; tell: us that all''; The life and achievements of Thomas A.

Manners are not meant to be placed away in close seclusion to be taken out and given an airing just before going to some social function. To be able to act naturally in any situation means to be constantly using what one would call "manners" in their everyday life. As it happens, many of the students when attending an informal or a dance that requires some form of introduction are simple petrified with the fear that will not be. able to handle the situation. When introducing one's partner at such an occasion the proper thing to do is for the girl who is taking her partner over to another couple to say: "Miss —X—, Mr. —Y—'* or "Miss —X—,* may I introduce Mr. —Y—." It is taken for granted tha at an informal such as the Outside Girls Informal that the two girls already Know each other. Consequently, after the two men have been introduced to the two girls the men can be introduced to each other toy simply saying: "Mr. —A—, Mr. —B—." In many cases the two men will already know each other, so it will not be necessary to make the introduction. In case there is any doubt whether they have met before it is proper for either of the girls to ask one of them if they have met the others. In accepting the introduction the proper thing to say is, "How do you do." Such phrases as "I'm pleased to meet you," are absolutely taboo in the polite social circles. When introducing a student to a member of the faculty, always introduce the student to the faculty member and never the other way around. This shows respect and consideration for an older person. To do this merely say the name of the faculty member as Mr. —B^-, this is Miss —C—, or Mr. —B—, gt; this is Mr. —D—. AMPINS THES Featuring g.

A bridge party in the Hallowe'en spirit was given at Barrett House last week-end. The Hallowe'en motif was carried out- in the supper appointments and the table decora: tions. The table was placed by the fireplace. Those who attended were: Caroline Bohweder Edna Twiss, Margaret Moore, Marjorie Wicker, Mildred Beers, Erna Mollard, Helen Cornelius, Thelma Jackson, Mrs. Ray Cooper, and the hostesses, Mrs. Barrett, the house mother, and Harriette Perkins. o The Moller House annual Hallowe'en party was held last Friday night in the form of a pa jama party with games, contests, and fortune- telling as the main diversions of the evening. Refreshment of cider, doughnuts, and jelly beans were served late in the evening. - , As each girl in the house had the privilege of inviting one guest, 12 girls enjoyed the evening's run. ^ w — M U M /•' w •• " ••'. "• For a number of weeks this column has been dedicated to women's furbelows, neck lines, button trims, and.sleeves with or without cuffs. Now it is time for the men to have a voice in the fashion parades of today. Men's clothes have just as much individual interest as women's clothes, but unless one calls attention to them they go, for the most part, unnoticed. New Suits Coming in with the winter displays are the good-looking suits of wheat brown and dark blue. Both the two-buttoned and the double-breasted coats are being shown. Overcoats To go with these suits are the overcoats of blue and the much-seen raglan tweed of this season. Most of the blue overcoats have the narrow velvet collar trims. Hats Snap brims hats in all manner of light shades particularly the pearl gray, are brought to one's attention in the displays shown in many of the shop windows. Gloves For practical uSe the gentleman of today chooses a pair of pigskin or mocha gloves. These can be used for dress or street wear as the occasion demands, and always are considered in good taste. Shoes Shoes have also changed their lines to meet the trend of fashion. They are more pointed of toe and more lasting in quality. Scotch-grain brogues seem to be the most popular footwear at present. These can be found in a variety of styles. There are those with the narrow toe line and the plain wing tip and those with the narrow toe line and the fancy wing tip. A great many of the shoes have perforations around the toe and the sides. Black and tan are the colors most shown. Shirts In the East the fashion is to wear shirts with very wide stripes running the length of the material. Here, however, the shirts are of the more or less plain color type with a very narrow silk stripe throughout. Broadcloths also are having their day in the fashion calendar. The collars are for the most part attached to the shirts. Ties Four-in-hand ties with small figures are in vogue this year. Bow ties are not worn for street wear, but are tucked away for the time of the formal dance. Suspenders As ever, the suspenders must have a place in the young man's wardrobe, and we find these being sold in plain colors to match the shirts. Hosiery Hosiery also is brought forth in the plain shades so characteristic of this season. For variations they have the silk clock running, up the side. Knickers Out Sport wear does not find the knickers in the lead as formerly. The style now is to wear long flannels and to have a sports jacket, to go with them. Sleeveless sweaters in the ever plain' colors of grgen, blue, tan, with but a tiny matching trim along the "v" neckline and the sleeves are the only things in sweaters.

It's very seldom that any football fan gets to see a football drama such as was staged on Waldo field last week between our own Vikings and the visiting Ellensburg Wildcats. Games such as those are few and far between. It Was even more of a great game because the Vikings Were doped to lose by a fairly large score and weren't given the least shadow of a chance even by their staunchest supporters. -r-Vikings-Loggers Tomorrow^- Actusliy out-playing their heavier opponents in the first half, the Vikings faltered but once in the entire game, that let-down coming in the third period when Ellensburg scored their seven points. —Vikings-Loggers Tomorrow— VIKINGS TAKE £0NG END OF CiOLF SdCr ^Sf2t*S gt;S 0'"r' gt;• "HI We realize that such things as "moral victories" are nothing but a lot of hot air and are absolutely worthless when it comes to figuring, up the season's percentage. But, nevertheless, the fight and spirit shown by'that Viking eleven last week, before a large Homecoming crowd, is worthy of a lot of consideration and praise. —Vikings-Loggers Tomorrow— Article in the Campus Crier of the Ellensburg Normal—-"Cheney scored at will on any kind of a • play. This was particularly due to Bellingham s line, which is heavy, but has no drive." Oh, yeah? We'd like to have that writer ask any of the Wildcat linemen in the game last Saturday at Bellingham if the Viking forward wall lacks drive. If our memory serves us well, the Viking line pushed the heavier Ellensburg Wall all over the field, the first half and although not as strong the second half, the Vikings certainly showed everything but a lack of drive. —Vikings-Loggers Tomorrow- Navy Bill Ingram, new coach at the University of California, says, "It's going to be a cinch for me out here on the Coast; trouble with Jones and Warner is that they haven't had any competition. I'll fix that, though." Incidentally, he has been dubbed Windy BUI by many of the coast players. —Vikings-Loggers Tomorrw— In our estimation, that most outstanding players on the field last Saturday were the Viking captain, and right end, Roy Abbott... Abbie was all over the., field,., covering punts, blocking, tackling as though his life depended on., it,., receiving passes and was a great leader and inspiration for his teammates. Truman Berg at center, and Danny Donovan at quarter played outstanding ball. Flowers, Iverson, Shelton and Williams distinguished themselves in the fracas... Gissberg, Brewer—oh, well, why try to evaluate that bunch of Viking players when everyone of them fought their hearts out against the Ellensburg aggregation. Undoubtedly, they played their finest game of the season and should be in great fettle for the College of Puget Sound game tomorrow on Waldo feild. —Vikings-Loggers Tomorrw— Defeating the Mount Vernor lor college last Friday at Vernon, a four-man Vikin team brought home the long the 9% to 2%score. Owing to a, football Mount Vernon only four men showed up. The F, and Junior College tearr follows: Carr, 2; vs. Han/ Beath, 3; vs. Gilkey, 0. vs. Rafter, 1%.

Our old friend, Itchie Toseys, has disappeared. Although he predicted correctly seven out of eight battles last week, missing only the Whatcom-Everett game, Itchie is not to be found... Two theories have been formulated as to the why of his departure. First, he missed his second game of the year when he predicted Whatcom to down Everett; second* although Ellensburg won last Saturday, he missed the final total score by some twenty-five points. No wonder he has left the country! We hope id have him back by next week for the St. Martins game, and until then We shall keep conferring with authorities at Walla Walla and Sing Sing ..to determine if he has returned to his home roost. —Vikings-Loggers Tomorrow— We see where George Wilson, the former U. of W.

He is having a fairly successful time at C. P. S. for his first season there... Coach "Sandy" likes a team with lots of fight and drive and he has one this year that has all these qualities. Never you mind, you Vikings, because we think you've got just as much of the old pepper and fight as the visitors... If you show any semblance of the spirit that was displayed in the Wildcat game—well, look out Loggers... D. L. D., Vikings, D. L. D. —Vikings-Loggers Tomorrow— In the absence of Whatamari Itchie, our predictions may go a little hey-hey, but here they are: U. S. C. to down Stanford,'W. S. C. to drop Idaho, O. S. C. to out-fight Montana, St. Mary's to lick U. C. L. A., Stadium to defeat Whatcom, and the Washington-California battle ending with a close score, perhaps 12-6 for California. —Vikings-Loggers Tomorrow— ....Things We Never Knew: That Roy Abbott Was a star athlete as a frosh at O. S. C. before coming to Bellingham. He made his numerals in football, basketball, and baseball. That it was possible to punt outside on the one-fool line from past mid-field, as Williams did last Saturday. Thai Morton Hogile was the artist who created the picture that won a prize in the Homecoming decoration contest. That Hogile made his basketball letter at Cheney... That Ing Iverson could return punts like he did last Saturday. x —Vikings-Loggers Tomorrow— Famous Last Words: Well*, Viking football players, let's go out and do a little logging when the College of Puget Sound Loggers take the field tomorrow. H i i y j w ^ 0MIN6 GAME HRILLER: BLUE WHITE LOSE 7-0 Men Stage a Comeback ight, But Weaken in Third Period .DCATS SLOWED UP leg. URPRISING even their staunchest supporters, Coach Sam Carver and his band of Viking grids men, stormed to new heights in their annual Homecoming game witri Ellensburg last Saturday by holding their ancient rivals to a one touchdown victory. The highly touted running attack of the Wildcats was slowed down, stopped, and put in reverse in the first half by the victory-seeking Vikings. But it was all for naught, for the fight-weary hill-toppers faltered once in the third quarter and then the thoroughly surprised but aroused Wildcats pushed over the goal line and then converted for the margin of victory. Vikings Fight The score fails to tell the complete story of the battle put up by the Carverites. The local eleven actually out-played the visitors during the first half and nosed their way into scoring position twice in the second quarter. Weakening in the final half, the Vikings' were put on the defense for the better half of the play. In the final period the Vikings rose up on their toes and held back several scoring thrusts with their backs braced against the last white stripe. Wildcats Surprised It is needless to say that the Ellensburg outfit were very much surprised by the pep and spirit displayed by the Vikings. Although weakened by the loss of several players through injuries the Vikings showed a snap and spark which has been lacking in the past two games. The fierceness of their attack threw the Ellensburg running attack out of stride and it was not until the third quarer that the Wildcats slowly pushed down the field for the only scoring of the afternoon. The Viking eleven, working like a many-cylindered machine, did its great work in the second quarter. The spark of this drive slowly faded in the third period and their first and last big chance had come and gone. Ellensburg Scores After an exchange of punts in the early part of the third quarter, Fuller, Wildcat halfback, tore through the right side of the'line for two beautiful fifteen-yard gains. Both gains were made with reverses. On a spin play, Fuller dashed to the PPPPP

"Of Thee, I Sing," Pulitzer prize play for 1932, opened at the Music Box theatre, New York, in December of last year, but tickets are still hard to get. As staged there it requires a cast of 19 main characters, 45- chorus girls and as many chorus men, a couple of bands, and numbers of extras raiijking from senators to flunkies. The stage settings include Madison Square Garden, the Boardwalk at Atlantic City, the United States Senate Chamber and the White House. It takes an unusual musical comedy to win the Pulitzer prize. "Of Thee I Sing" is a political lampoon, a form of drama which dates back to Aristophanes. "The less critics have to say about a lampoon the better," writes Thomas Hutchinson of the Saturday Review of Literature. "It either is or isn't,—and 'Of Thee I Sing' most definitely is!" It aims its shafts at every current mania,—big business, beauty contests, wrestling, political hokum, radio, advertising, and the American sentimentality which demands a love affair in its headlines and a prominent baby in its rotogravure. _—. o Thespian Try outs Are Completed and Plans for Quarter Adopted Tryouts for new Thespian members were held last night.

The Women's League was conducted by the president, Virginia Carver. She introduced the committee heads who in turn gave short talks. A very interesting program was presented by Harriet Oxford and Jean Bowles, who gave a number of popular vocal and piano selections. An election of president and vice president took place in the Men's Club meeting. Jimmie Stoddard, the former president, at this time announced his resignation. President Fisher and Mr. Marquis contributed to the program by short speeches. ,. Magician Fascinates Two Audiences With His Masterly Skill Miss Orleane Fitcha, switchboard operator in President Fisher's office, was called suddenly to Portland late Sunday when her mother passed away unexpectedly following a major operation. Mis Fitcha has many friends and has made many contacts with students, and the heartfelt sympathy of the entire student body is extended to her in her bereavement. Last Saturday Birch, the famous magician, appeared before two small but enthusiastic audiences in the auditorium. The afternoon audience, composed mostly of'school children and Normal students, enjoyed the show perhaps even more than the evening group. Program of Interest Birch proved to be a master of his art in every stunt he performed. His patter was refreshing and amusing, ( and his love and understanding of children brought much co-operation from the kiddies in the audience. Miss Sperry; delighted • with selections on her artists xylophone. She also aided in being a charming foil for many of the tricks. In the evening show Birch mystified everyone by permitting himself to be securely nailed inside a packing case and then reappearing on the stage in less than three seconds afterward. Dr. and Mrs. C. C. TJpshall spent their summer vacation in making a trip to Los Angeles to visit Dr. Up-shall's parents and making an extended trip to California cities and thereabouts. Board Decides on Fund Apportionment * * •-* * ALL ITEMS SUFFER THE AXE Lectures and Athletics Funds Slashed -The Board of Control convened last Monday afternoon and cast their votes in favor of the yearly budget presented by President Fisher. Because this quarter's enrollment is below expectations, the yearly budget adopted last spring quarter suffered a revamping and was passed by the present board Monday. This new budget was cut $1800 or approximately 13%. This was based on a drop in enrollment from 750 to 650. All Suffer Drop ' Social life was cut $200 and was apportioned $1800. The Northwest Viking suffered a $300 slash and now rests at $1500. Men's athleticsdropped from $4250 to $3875. Women's athletics from $500 to $450. Drama club $450 to $375.

Some gossipers have suggestd a "Tammany Hall Jr." among the men for the establishmentof their "select few" on the Board of Control. Really, this sounds hardly plausible, for the men in nearly every instance are backing women for various offices. Other rumors, based on movements by certain feminine factions, are somewhat more substantiated and have a rather sinister complexion. The instructions to prospective voters at certain meetings to vote for only a woman or a woman and a weaker man candidate in the primaries; the request for co-operation from the men through these columns and then the massing of their strength to elect a woman candidate, whether she be good, bad or indifferent—-these actions do not tend to the promotion of clean, fair politics, if there is such a thing. It must be remembered by the women that it was a majority male Board of Control last spring that' voted them money for women's athletics and sent two representatives from the Athletic Association to California. And still the incessant cry goes up that there must be a majority of women on the board to get a square deal. But in any. event, go to the polls next Wedensday and cast your vote for your honest choice. Not as some clique has instructed you to ballot, but for the candidate you think most qualified for the position. Be fair in your convictions, and always VOTE YOUR OWN MIND. B ELLINGHAM NORMAL IS USINESS CONCERN With the advent of fall quarter at the Normal school it is imperative that the students and the people of this community consider what this school actually means to them. Not only must they consider it as an institution of educational and cultural value, but also as a business organization. This Normal school is unexcelled as a teacher training institution in the West and to obtain a diploma of graduation is indeed an honor. These facts have long been recognized in this community, but very seldom do the citizens realize that it is one of the finest local industries. An estimate by President C. H. Fisher states that the Normal is capable of a $750,000 output in cold •cash to this community; $400,000 for operation, $275,000 for salaries and $1*25,000 for maintenance, including overhead expense and operation of Edens Hall. The student expenditures alone bring $200,000 more to the city.' . ( The Normal school is also a source of saving to those students whose homes are in the, city and county. Because.of its nearness young men and women realize a saving of nearly'$500 yearly over the amount necessary for expenses at an outside institution. This item represents $150,000. , The Normal school'therefore may be classed as one of the largest industries running continuously in Bellingham. Certainly it can boast of having the city V largest continuous payroll. ; Because of its smoothness of operation the school ' h a s been taken some\$at for granted. , A coriiplir • jnenty perhaps, •but ill is becpni^ moire arid more peoBssary fpij'both students and townspeople to rec-i fognizefethe fact that •tji^ Jichobl" is;'6n]B of its ; ^finest i assets.^';: :V_V' ;_"';,-•,, _;:y.. • £y :;%^:?-:-V.'r|'' zf'' gt;•;'%':.•• • ;; v^-;isvtii^ ' •';-..-'•'£y';BOB Tfl0MPSON gt; Life is a, book, a breath, a dream; and Uvihg:is ttie blending of these, in the course of a day, into their proper proportions. The complete life is the balanced life, and the happy life is the fjull Ufe. • One picks up a book for ah hour's relaxation in reading about people who lived yesterday or last.year or a century past, but he soon lays" it aside; saying: "Very interesting, but those folks are dead. Living with them through the pages of this book is of no use to me except that their^experiences have at times paralleled my own, and through them I may be able to guide my steps a little more wisely. "But they are gone—it is for me to live." Here, is another, outwardly perhaps as normal and lively as his fellows, but who in truth has secluded himself in the library of his own past—has shuttered himself from the world—who converses with ghosts o£ another day and moves in the shadows of memory. Afraid to come out. The sunshine frightens him—-the little barbed words of society are cruel—he is tender— he is hurt—he finds solace and consolation with his books. That is all—defensive always—afraid to touch sword to sword. He who lives only for the breath he breathes is the sorriest of the lot, for he has nothing. He is the link between what has been and what will be—and they together are the substance of life. Like a dumb-bell, you know, with the weight on either end and very little between. But how important that little bit is! Sever that—and what then? Forever there will be a past, and always there will be the future, but the present is such a transient thing. Of tomorrow we dream—just'a little, not too much. The happy man lives for tomorrow, not in it. He who lives only in part can hope to see only in part. No life is vain, though some are tragically misapplied. V IKING GRID MEN IE WITH LUTHERANS Football, the king of all national sports, has definitely arrived. Here at the Normal school Coach Carver and his assistant, Coach Gunn, have been driving a rather small but promising group of gridsters for the past three Weeks. Several lettermen, replenished with many hopeful prep stars, make the outlook anything but gloomy. Tomorrow afternoon the Vikings will tangle with the Pacific Lutheran College of Tacoma on Waldo field. Last spring quarter the students voted to retain intercollegiate football at the Normal school. The discussion centered about the advisability of keeping the sport because of its expense and in preference to an intra-mural program. The students voiced their approval of the grid sport and final voting results showed that it was favored by a large majority of the student body. As this is the first football season following the vote it is the duty of the students to turn out en masse for our home games and prove that the vote last spring was one made after thinking of the question and not made on the spur of the moment. May we take our hats off to the finest Rec Hour in many months. The affair last Friday evening was certainly incentive enough to continue the night affair at certain intervals. Although the faculty were conspicuous by their absence, the dance hour was conducted in a fine manner and was indeed a tribute to this time-honored recreational "hop." REJUVENATION OF CLUBS EACHES NEW LEVEL Stimulated by new blood and new ideas, club life at the Normal school has already taken on as healthy an aspect as has been seen for several months. Realizing for the first time in a considerable period the value of their clubs, the various organizations have called together their few remaining members, held their initial meetings, made plans for the coming quarter, and have started their "rushing season.'Big things are going to be done this ~year by these clubs and they will once more take their place in student activities and government. As an added stimulus to the promotion of club life, the Board of Control is offering a trophy to the organization making the most remarkable and outstanding record during tlie year.

Ghuckanut Shell has been chosen for the W Club Informal to be held Oct. 22. This dance, an annual affair of the fall quarter, promises to be-one of the crowning events of the year: gt; ^According to "Posey" Flowers, the chairman of the committee, the sale of tickets will be limited to 75, due to the small capacity of the hall. The tickets can be bought from any member of the W club this week. Ghuckanut Shell, whose popularity has gained lately as a desirable Hal! for student affairs, will ring to the music of Clarence Thue's popular orchestra. Everyone is urged to buy his tickets as soon as possible. ; VALKYRIES SERVE TEA CRISP, stuigey, frosty mornings prompt Joe College to wrap himself in a warm woolly polo coat. They certainly are -the go this season. With enough fabric for an ordinary coat and a half these fascinating snappy styles appeal to Joe College on every campus. Camel's hair is still good and we find many attractive models in this fabric. Tweeds come in for most popularity in polo coats, among college men, but the new polo cloth is considered the more tasteful for young business men. Military o'coat collars are a feature, not forgetting the wide belt which is to be tightly drawn about the waist to form natty pleats. THE NEW Clark Gable hats will be worn with polo coats. To promote interest in women's school activities, the newly organized women's pep club known as the Valkyrie club served tea on Wednesday, afternoon from 2:30 to 3:30 in the Women's League room. June W^elch was the chairman for the affair and the hostesses were Bubbles Bremness, Harriet Rickerson, June Jevning, and Katherine Bow-den. SHOES this season have taken a turn to the heavy, due perhaps to the necessity of distinguishing oneself from the prevalent gangster. English brogues in chocolate browns, and moccasin toed ski shoes are the thing for school wear. For dancing and evening wear the plainly stitched plain toed black calfskin shoes are ih good taste. TIES take a darker hue, wine tones and the darker burnished autumn shades in cravenette and barathea with raised white dots are being featured. NEW AVIATOR styles in leather jackets are promiscuous on every campus. White .goat skin is a, late innovation. Buckskin is its natural shade is popular. Suede is stijl being worn but that is about all that can be said for it. CORPS are still in the lead for school wear. The Spanish waists are definitely out. RICH MAROONS and deep electric blues are featured in sweaters.

The situation has assumed a nation^ scope and as we suryey the "colitch" field we become aware that already a few schools are fielding powerful football aggregations. By virtue of their impressive :. wins over Iowa and Northwestern respectively, Wisconsin arid Michigan look hot i n the Big Ten. In the East, Harvard, for one, has been bowling 'em over in a big way. In the South, Tulane and Florida are looking good; while in the Big Six, we have Oklahoma as the only team that has chalked up any outstanding victories.

Observing local antics, we've concluded that the ^ligh school conference is going to see a fight all the way with Everett's fame and Ana-cortes' impotency as the only possible extremes. Hi, Bill! Quit running, you fellows, we're just calling one particular Bill—Osborne's the name. By the way Bill, how was your date with Mrs. Bell Sperry (alias Mrs. Birch) last Saturday afternoon? Yeah, we heard all about it! How you just couldn't wait any longer so you dashed right out on the athletic field and cornered your woman. Well, did you get the date Bill? The story is as follows: The magician's wife (and was she nice!) . came tearing around the corner by the old tennis courts in her new Buick eight. She wanted to turn around and since magicians wives are "different", she thought she'd take a fling at the race track. Bill Osborne, our athletic manager was in the vicinity and thought she wouldn't. He was on that woman like a shot and they had it out. Bill sure did his duty but we'll bet a cooky that next time he goes chasing people off the track, he'll make sure ahead of time what they look like. Was she nice? When Sam Carver embarks on an expedition there has to be a purpose for it. We heard he left town last Saturday with "Pop" Gunn, and "Posey", and; "Brink," so we decided to check and re-check. We also heard rumors of a girl's note but we couldn't verify them. Last. Monday we saw Freeman Berg down in the main hall so we put two and two together and got five. •• But anyhow, the visitation must have been a success because Berg is back with us and Sam has quit losing sleep over the center position. "Welcome back" Berg, from Deb by Altose, the students and the faculty! The setting: WalCeo field. Time: ;2:15. Stage set: grandstand full (?) of people and a field with some white stripes on it and some funny cross-bars at each end.

The condition of the squad as a whole is excellent with only a few minor injuries scattered here and there among the candidates as they tighten their belts with determination for what promises to be a battle to the finish. With the, Lutherans favored to win over the locals, the Viking mentors are leaving nothing unturned in their quest for victory and feel that the Vikings, together with the spirit they have shown in practice plus .school support, will'give the visitors a run for their money. Lineup Uncertain Wwho will start tomorrow's game is a problem. With approximately twenty-five men still very much in the running for varsity positions Carver's job of picking a starting lineup is a difficult one. When asked for a probable lineup, all the Viking mentor did was bury his head and say, "Your guess is asf good as mine, so go ahead." With due credit to all backfield candidates it looks as though Flowers, Brinkman, Smith and Bagley will be the starting backs when the referee blows the whistle Saturday, with "Swivel- Hipped" Sinko, John Beaton, Behme and Les Williams ready to spell the starters. The backfield will possess plenty of speed and power and with Bagley's ^passing plus the kicking ability of Art Smith, Beaton and Williams, should stack up fairly well against the visitors. Comfort to Start When Sid Comfort and Nelson Brewer, veteran linemen on the forward wall, flanked with either Fin-ley or Berg at center, the line will have two and possibly three veterans from the last year on the forward wall. Others' who will probably get their initial baptism are: Gable, Partes, Flint, Banner, Sul-kosky, Hallowell, McLean, Turner and Christy. These together with Cole, Joe Hermsen, Foster, Good, Charlesworth and Hogan will give the Parkland line plenty to shoot at. The Pacific Lutheran squad by virtue of their impressive showing against the College of Puget Sound shape up as a stiff test for any team and if the Vikings can tie or hurdle the City of Destiny eleven, the Normal gridders, will be in a fair way to go places this season. The opening" kickoff is set for 2:15 on the local gridiron. . ' ~ _o _ SMITHV\*ETC Name: Arthur Smith. Born 1908, Bandon, Ore. Age: 24; height, 5 ft. 8 in. Weight, 164 pounds. Schools attended: Arlington high school, Bellingham State Normal. Hobby: Placing punts where someone isn't. Smith, ietterman and second baseman of "Pop" Gunn's 1932 baseball squad, is commencing his second year of football cim-petition at the local institution. Although not playing the required time to earn a sweater in football last fall, Smith, nevertheless, was a valuable part of the Vjking machine, and with an early start this season, stands a good chance of being one of the mainstays of this year's eleven. While attending H. S. at 1 Arlington, Smith played base- { ball, football and basketball I and was a member of the track I team. In all earning nine high I f school letters, a record to shoot I I at considering these were { I earned in three year's time. ]' U'lov- When the smoke of tomorrow's, game has cleared away] the football season will be in full swing. Two weeks hence, the Vikings tangle with the powerful St. Martin's eleven. St. Martin's boast a powerful \ | aggregation and the outcome of. these.first two games will serve as a barometer, insofar as the Viking strength is concerned. . . C. P. S.

WASHINGTON Friday, -April • 25/:; l$3jQllfe Normalite STUDENT ESSAY CLOSED LIBRARY ADULT EDUCATION ROOM 112 —Bob Walters The library was again closed for a musical event, last Wednesday evening. If there is any t r u th to the number of "howls" set up by would-be- students, we feel that there was ample reason to keep the doors to the domain of books open. Jennie Berg Heads League of Women -W. S. N. S. Even Normalite wasn't immune to some of the criticism at the bottom of the questionnaires recently published. Several would like more "Sundstrom Sarcasm', but we don't happen to see i t that way. Besides we have had plenty of sleep lately. There you have a little of it, studes. Officers for the Women's League were elected last Friday during the assembly hour. Jennie Berg was elected president; Louise Smith, vice president; Aileen Hurlburt, secretary; and Esther Nordquist, treasurer. Following the election a short program was presented. Gladys Smith was in charge. Little Bobby Haugen, six-year-old, played a violin solo, with Muriel Myhre at t he piano. Bernadine Brown gave two readings, and Marion Bodiker, Ann Swanson, and Dorothy Knuppen-berg sang, Miss Knuppenberg playing the accompaniment. o BOARD OF CONTROL MAKES UP BUDGET FOR THIS QUARTER Arthur Gravrock Is Elected Four- Quarter Representative to the Board of Control. M'DONALD, VICE PRESIDENT -W. S. N. S.- Either "great minds run in the same channels" or some long necks were able to allow many to gaze on the paper of the person that used the phrase "bigger and better" during our little reader's quizz. W. S. N. S. • "Adult Education for Teachers", by Dorothy Canfield Fisher, is one of the main articles in the W. E. A. Journal. The article deals directly with its title and tells of the folly of students feeling: that their education ends with the receiving of a diploma. ——W. S. N. S. Campus Day, Viking Vodvil, Tennis Court Rules, and Next Year's Budget Come Under Discussion. The author-declares that if Adult education would take a good hold, the teacher could fundamentally prepare the student without trying to cram him with enough knowledge i n a few months to last him the rest of his life. Then, too if the teachers would spend part of their time in learning something new and constructive they would better be able to realize the position of their students, as "well as to aid themselves. W. S. N. S. People of Bellingham figure quite frequently in the Journal. One thing was especially outstanding. Maxine Winter, who is in the sixth grade of t h e training school here, had an essay published. This is entirely contrary to past rules of not publishing student work, but t he essay was exceptional. -W. S. N. S.- The boys all gathered around in room 112, last Monday noon, some talking and some reading. The orchestra started playing, and everyone settled back in his seat to have an enjoyable hour with a fire in the fireplace and refreshments the only items lacking. Then, too, there were several speeches and after all was over, the old 112 was officially changed to "Men's Club" room.. Holding a special meeting a week ago yesterday, and a regular one last Monday, the old administration headed the Board of Control for the last time. The new officers were present at the second meeting and are now in control of the student affairs. One of the first things worked on was the budgeting of the student fees for this quarter. The items per capita were dispensed as follows: Northwest Viking $ .25 Social Life : 75 Assemblies 3.25 Athletics 1.75 Two appointements were'made for Campus day. Herbert C. Ruckmick, Industrial Arts teacher, was to preside as Generalissimo, while Ralph Miller will be asked to be student manager. Notices have been posted, requesting written applications from those intending to apply for the' managership of the Viking Vodvil. The manager will receive for his services, the first ten dollars profit, and twenty per cent for all over that. Rules for the Tennis Courts were .also discussed but no action was taken. With some big time political speeches, conservative and otherwise, posters, illegal handbills, and personal persuasion preceding the starter's gun, in the big three lane school official race, and a thrilling dash to the finish line with Quick, McDonald, and Gravrock in the lead, the school had a successful "indoor trackmeet", last Friday. There were eleven runners selected from the trial heats several weeks ago, but when it came time for the race to begin the number had slightly decreased. The retiring president, Lyle Summers, had on his running togs and was all set to enter as a big favorite, but at the last moment he hobbled off to join the "old soldier squad" and leave the honors tb fall on one of the youngsters. An amendment to the constitution was voted and passed, which now makes it possible for a representative serving on the Board of Control for two quarters to get a "W" pin. Abode of Liberty Dedicated by Men Sixty-five members of the Men's club, were present at the Club room dedication held last Monday. Dean Marquis, in his address, stressed t he persistent attitude of the men in their method of securing the stronghold. Due to t h e men's new spirit of dignity, independence and ability tb meet the Toreador at his own game, the faculty decided to present the club with an Abode of Liberty, where dignity reigns supreme in an independent atmosphere. - o — — — MANY SUGGESTIONS MADE BY STUDENTS IN QUESTIONNAIRES House Notes Branded as Dry and Uninteresting by Some; Student Opinions Best Liked by Majority. Ginnette and Griffith; Well Known Musicians, to Present Unusual Piece, "Randel in the Strand". ARTISTS HIGHLY PRAISED BUREAU APPOINTS MANY TO POSITION Twelve to Do Cadet Work in the Primary and Intermediate Grade Sections of the Seattle Schools. KLIPSUN OFFERS PRIZE FOR CAMPUS SNAPSHOTS The Klipsun staff announces that all snapshots for t h e school life section of this year's annual must be in by Tuesday, May 6. The pictures may deal with views of the campus, students, or anything that is representative of school life. The best collection of ten snaps will be awarded a 1930 KLIPSUN. They • may be handed in to the Associated Students' office. Don't forget! May 6 is the final date. - - : ; O- • .'•• The Viking office received a r e freshing and informative letter last Wednesday from one of its former frequenters, Joe Hermsen, prominent Normal student, who: is now in .Ketchikan, Alaska. He was inspired; : to send his love (?) to two of his g o l d friends, Ray Craft and Benny ?

Randolph, only fifteen years of age, is a student of the violin under Albert Benson and his playing has caused considerable comment in the Northwest. His sister, Lillian, twelve years of age, plays his accompaniment in a creditable manner, and is a student of Charles Bowen, pianist. These two talented children are offering a varied and unusual program. Open Season On For Measles and Boils The Appointment Bureau has secured a great number of positions during the past week. The following people have been placed: Clare Wilson Mildred Thomas, Virginia Turner, Louise Griffin, Madlyn Young, Mabel Wilson, and Velma Mason, wall do cadet work in Seattle primary grades; Thelma Anderson, Cora Walton, Jessie Grieve, Edith Dyer, and Margaret Solum, will cadet in Seattle intermediate grades.

". •'.' Attendance at an Arkansas church has 'increased 50 per cent since the customof passing the^collection plate was/discarded. -: / -":k^"v:;^v'-:- An attack of measles has caused Martha Rumbaugh and Opal Dim-mitt to be confined to the isolation hospital this week. After twelve days absence due to illness, Isabel Lancaster has returned to school. Miss Mead announces that this is the " open season for boils and sprained ankles. A number of cases of each have been reported to the nurse's office during the past two weeks. Because illness has prevented her from continuing her studies, Helen Purcell has found it necessary to withdraw from school this quarter. o Korean Lecturer Will Speak Here Tuesday Mrs. Induk Kim, a native of Korea, will speak to the I. R. C. club and Y. W. C. A., before specially arranged meetings Tuesday, April 29. All students are invited to hear Mrs. Kim, who is a speaker capable of grasping the Korean situation politically and religiously. She has been received with enthusiasm by students in all types of institutions including some of the largest Eastern colleges and was a speaker at the Detroit Student Volunteer convention two kears ago. From a list of topics Mrs. Kim will allow her listeners to choose one in which thiy are most interested and she ' will speak on t h a t subject; The Northwest Viking questionnaire in Tuesday's assembly, produced remarkable and interesting but nevertheless serious, results, with improvement suggestions running from bigger and better ashcahs in the United States Senate to "Shoot the Editor!" Of the approximate four hundred questionnaires answered about one hundred made varied suggestions for improvement. Probably the greatest argument between the "suggestors" came in regard to house notes. Some demanded more house notes while others put a strict taboo on them, calling them "dry and uninteresting". A cry went up from the female spcrts that -the space given to women's athletics was far too inadequate to serve the_needs of the school's major group. As one Co-ed put it, "There are about four girls to every boy in this school, and yet the boys get almost the entire sports write-up. I think it would be fairer if the girls got at least half of the sports page. This would be more interesting to a greater majority in the school". From the lovers of books and the aesthetic came a plea ^ ---------- Northwest Viking - 1930 April 25 - Page 2 ---------- ^WA^Hlticnfo^ Ifltil e iNonnwest yu g " , ' ; ' ^ ; I , " ' ' Formerly The Weekly Messenger-—Founded 1899 : ^Published evtery Friday except during the month of September, by the Associated :Studentt.s, AVashington State Normal, Bellingham. . • ', :i.^Entered'in the Postoffice at Bellirigham, Washington, as second class matter by Virtue.of thleact of March 3, 1879. kYJLyjVMMJKXJkJA Printed by the Miller Satherlen Printing Company, Bellingham National Bank Bldg.

C O M E O N E , C O M E A LL T h e Northwest Viking, in collaboration with other agencies, is sponsoring next week a spectacle for the delight of Normal people, and wishes to extend a n invitation t o all interested Normalites to gather on the campus next M o n d a y morning at 1 0 : 4 0 to witness an eclipse of the sun. A l t h o u g h we aren't putting on a total eclipse this year, we expect this one to be very good, and can promise definitely a marked dimunition of light a n d the uncanny winter chill which comes over everything within the advance of the eclipse. W e would like to recommend that the photography class be prepared to gather snapshots, because it is seldom that a newspaper is able to sponsor an eclipse, even a partial one, and we are hoping that this one will be appreciated.

Here t h e whole process of t a k i n g the prisoner's personal record, together v/ith a picture and finger prints was explained and il- • lustrated. One of t h e members was used to i l l u s t r a t e t h e complete book-zing a n d / i d e n t i f i c a t i o n process, but all visited the interior of t h e cells. - The next place visited, w a s . the City Mission, where much of Bel-l i n g h a m ' s relief work is carried on / for both individuals and unfortu- . r i a t e f ^ The students were shown t h r o u g h the rooms where '.• - -provisions, clothing, shoes, h a t s , ,and .; o t h e r supplies f o r ' m e n , women, and y;{.;Cbh^dren.are-'.;st6re'd.'and' given out ; . y t o t h o s e i n need. • / 5.; T h e City Mission also serves as an kf.'%employment agency . for the : comr l ^ t m u n i t y .

In one room t h e r e was over $4,000 worth of Canadian liquor awaiting d e s t r u c t i o n upon the order of the Court.

Have you ever h e a r d of a student election campaign where they d i d n ' t give you t h e razz about your school spirit? 2. Have you ever h e a r d of a school which had as much school s p i r i t as its activity leaders thought i t should have? 3. For t h a t m a t t e r what is school s p i r i t but a lot of idiotic self-deceiving false-loyalty? 4. And where does it get you except i n t o a lot of arguments with other pseudo-loyalists? 5. Why not value your school a c cording to its real worth, and t h en t r y to increase t h a t worth? 6. And activities; have you ever h e a r d of an activity t h a t was gett i n g enough of t h e s t u d e n t s ' interest-t o suit t h e ambitious office-seeker? 7. What good is a n activity, that-doesn't stimulate enough spontaneous i n t e r e s t t o keep itself alive? 8. Have you ever seen two people w i t h t h e same t a s t e i n activities? 9. ' Then, why t r y t o foist onto us something, which we don't want in t^he guise of a dead club or a n uni n t e r e s t i n g contest? 10. Why do t h e s t u d e n t s of a school 'devote t o t h e serious purpose of t r a i n i n g adult people for a life's work, allow themsely.es t o be bamboozled into doing a lot of high-school stunts t o , s t i m u l a t e pep in a n entirely u n i n t e r e s t i n g subject? Fill in t h e blanks carefully, fold your paper once only, and drop t h em in / the bay. .This question of s t u d e n t s smoking h a s reached unfair proportions. • Smoking among students, especia l ly women/ is becoming .greateX in t h e -, h i g h e r i n s t i t u t i o ns of learning of America. S t a t e a n d local governm e n t s are, giving t h em a freer h a nd in% t h e m a t t e r . They seem to feel t h a t it is t h e students' affair, and t h a t they must make t h e i r own decisions. On t h e other hand, Bellingham Normal is t r a i n i n g not business men a n d women, but school teachers, so out of respect t o t h e teaching, p r o fession, t h e training-school children, a n d t h e s t a t e law, smokers should be discreet. However, this idea of s t r i c t punishment, many times unknown to t h e offender, because of smoking, is unfair. For instance, it h a s recently been rumored about t h a t t h e Appointment B u r e a u would do n o t h i n g at all toward aiding a girl who smoked. Though n o t h i n g was ever published-about t h i s where it would be available to all students. Evidently, we a r e expected t o come here knowing a l l ( smoking rules and regulations, even t h e whispered ones. J. suggest, t h e n , t h a t t h i s smoking question be thoroughly . a i r e d , and s t a t e m e n t s as t o t h e definite conclusions reached placed i n t h e catalogue, Blue Book, and Northwest Viking.

Prosh for their annual clash, Saturday will see the opening of the track season for the Carverites. Every year the Vikings take a drubbing from. the Frosh, but, considering the amount of material the Prosh coach has to work with, and the fourteen men our • coach has, the Normal school makes an ^excellent showing. This meet generally decides for the coach the chances the Viking squad will have for the Tri-Normal title to be lield here on May 24. Eagan's nice performance in the half-mile Saturday may show that the middle distance runner is capable of taking the first place .in the 880 event Saturday.' Dixon also may pull through with a first in the broad jump, his jump of over 20 feet, Saturday, proving him capable of winning this event. However, most of the Vikings' points will be seconds and thirds, that is if the meet is to be judged from past meets. VIKING TRACK SQUAD MEETS FROSH TEAM! FOR CINDER HONORS Coach Carver and Thirteen Spiked Shoe Athletes to Meet With Uni versity Trackmen in Seattle. Trip to Viqueeri Lodge Proves Day of Rest forT SHOULD BE GOOD MEET Tomorrow..' morning, coach Sam Carver and thirteen-Viking trackmen will leave for? Seattle, where sthey will meet the University of Washington; Freshmen A in a dual track and field.meet at 2:30. The Vikings are listed on the short end of- the odds and are given little chance of out-pointing the strong Frosh., outfit! Considering \ past Frosh marks, the. Hilltoppers have their best 'chances in the 440, 880, 2-mile broad jump, polevault, and javelin. Brink-man should make a good showing in his favorite event, the 2 mile run, while Carboreau and Egan should grab places in the shorter distances. Flowers is given a good chance to cop the polevault, and Shelton should get at least a second in the javelin. This constitutes most of the Vikings' strength, although points can also be acquired in the other events. The men making the trip are Love-gren, Brinkman, Falkner, Quick, Cole, Flowers, Dixon, Egan, Carbon-eau, Duyff, Shelton, Voris, and Graverock. Saturday, April 19, the Vikings took a practice meet from the Whatcom Redskins by the score of 65V± to 56%. The meet was close all the way and the outcome was in doubt until the relay. The Redskins showed a well-balanced team and several times were made, especially by Barnhart, in the 100 yard and 220 yard dash. Eleven W. A. A. girls, accompanied by Miss Mildred Jewell and Miss Beatrice Doty, with their best hiking boots and best smiles landed, on Sinclair Island last Saturday morning for an all-day trip at Viqueen lodge. It was a day for pleasure, and so little work was accomplished about the ^building. The grounds were cleaned and the lodge scrubbed and——but that is sufficient work for a lazy day. , ' _' Four of the girls went in swimming. There were many hikes along the shore, many people who just lay in the sun, and a calm trip back on the boat that evening. —o —- VIKINGS WIN GAME FROM WARRIOR NINE M l Six Matches Including Four- Singles and Two Doubles Will Be Played?

SONG CONTEST AWARDS TO BE MADE SHORTLY TENNIS MATCHES TO BE PLAYED The Viking net men will get a taste of their favorite sport today, when they meet Mount Vemon Junior College for a practice meet. Up •to the present time it is very hard' to decide who will represent the Vikings in the conference meets because of lack of good weather to play off some interesting matches. At the present time Rork,, Emery, and Constantine seem to be the outstanding players, but as the season develops some changes may be made. * * * * MAY 3 OPENS BASEBALL SEASON Although the first conference game with St. Martin's is scheduled for May 3, the Viking Varsity has been getting into that smooth running type of a machine by meeting some of the local high school teams. In these games Coach "Pop" Gunn is getting a line on the squad with which he will start the conference grind. The Vikings have a hard hitting ball club this year and seem to be very^apable of handling the ball in the. infield and outfield. The battery sems to be working out to be one of a very high degree. With one more week of strenuous workouts the Norsemen will be making a strong bid for a championship year. .... * * * * THREE IN A ©ROW Now that Ellensburg has safely stowed away the Tri-Normal crowns in football and basketball, the'Wilx}-. cats are gunning for their third tir tle.. Roy Sandberg's track entry will' undoubtedly be feared by the coaches of the other institutions, although the Wildcats have not had a winning track squad for some'., time.

The-first meeting- of. the..-judges will be held next Tuesday afternoon at four o'clock in 239. The purpose of this meeting will be to acquaint the judges with the music. Fowler Chairman The judges for the contest are: Harold B. Smith of the Music department; Albert Booman, president of the Alumni Association; Mrs. C. X. Larrabee, Bellingham Women's Music club; President C. H. Fisher; one member of the student body; and Mr. H. C. Ruckmick, representative of the Board of Control. Mr. H. E. Fowler, of the English department, is the chairman of the judges' committee. In a practice game played Tuesday night the Viking's Varsity ball team took the long end of a 9 to 3 score from a band of Whatcom high school "Warriors". Six of the Viking's runs were collected in the third inning and the other three later in the game. It was in this inning that "Occie" Thorsen not to be outdone by Eacrett's three-base hit, poled out a long hit driving in two runners and ending in a home run for "Occie". Iverson started on the mound for the Vikings while Scarlet twirled for the Whatcom lads. McCleary and Smith were on the respective opposite ends of the battery. Several changes were made to try out other prospects. Although the playing was ragged in spots the Vikings showed promise and with a little hard work should develop into a strong team. o "SMOKE-EATERS" LOSE GAMES ---------- Northwest Viking - 1930 April 25 - Page 4 ---------- WASHINGTONESTATE NORMAL SCHOOL, BELLINGHAM, WASHINGTON DRAWS BIG CROWD Bellingham Little Symphony Pleases in? Final Concert of Year; Soloist Well Received by Music Lovers. Probably one of the largest audiences of the season witnessed the final concert of the Bellingham Little Symphony in the Normal Auditorium Wednesday night. Harold B. Smith directed the musicians and under his leadership they gave the public an excellent evening's entertainment. The opening number was Overture "Egmont", by Beethoven. Throughout this piece " the strings carried ,an undercurrent of melody suggestive of an approaching storm. Following was the "Ballet Suite", by GJuck-Mottl, characterized by intricate and varied melodies. • One of the most popular numbers was the "War Dance", by Skilton, with the haunting torn torn beat present throughout. Succeeding this was the quiet, restful melody of "Wine, Women, and Song", by Strauss. Mrs. Lois Holt Brown gave a beautiful rendition of the Shadow Song "Dinorah'V by Meyerbeer. —— d SEATTLE TRIO PLAYS ASSEMBLY PROGRAM A fine musical program was presented before the student body Tuesday morning with the appearance of the Musical Art Trio of Seattle. The trio is composed of three well-known musicians, Alice Williams Sherman, violin; Elizabeth Reeves, cello; and Hazel Hammer Hill, piano. The trio has been highly praised by many critics, and tEeir performance here was excellent. The program included selections from the classics, as well as some of the modern composers. The music was beautifully rendered and full of charm and rhythm. . The program follows: Trio in D minor Arensky Allegro Moderate Scherzo ' Elegia " Finale Alegro non troppo Scherzo, from Trio in E flat ''."-.- - '- Beethoven Deep River Negro Spiritual Reverie Strauss Romance ......Debussy NICHOLS HOUSE Freddie Billingsly has been absent from school for several days, because of illness.

For a long time he and many of his friends hired their term papers written by others. They always paid a rate according to the time spent in writing them. However, our hero received an inspiration and had one written under a different plan. But oh, was it terrible, dangling phrases, no punctua- ; tion, and numerous other evils. I t .was just like the big building that crumbled for the want ' of more cement and steel reinforcements in the concrete work. , Here's the point the poor1 fellow gave his work to the lowest bidder.

Marion Graham was the lucky girl—having found the greatest number of eggs. After the Easter egg h,unt the Freshmen assembled for breakfast in the club room. The color scheme of yellow was carried out with daffodils and candles. The Freshmen were entertained by a group of songs sung by six of the Sophomore girls.

BELLMAN CHAIRMAN Following the Women's league Informal tomorrow evening, the last big dance affair of the quarter will be crossed off the social calendar. An air of expectancy awaits tomorrow night since the dance given in the form of a Cinderella ball will certainly be a novel idea. ••'•: After each dance a large clock will chime out the rapidly departing minutes until the fateful hour of "twelve. At the time this same clock will solenmly toll the hour so eyentfully in the story of Cinderella: This modern version of the famous dance will have just as much charm and mystery as the one told of in the story books.

Last Thursday evening Sali Lobel, celebrated Roumanian dancer and actress, made her first appearance hi Bellingham in the Normal school auditorium. Label was very well received and her dances were quite unique and somewhat different from what the spectators have bee naccustomed to. This year marks Miss Lobel's first trip to the United States after having spent three seasons in London, rwhere she gained a tremendously favorable reputation as an interpretative dancer. : Ber program, "Dancing Down the Ages/' was arranged by herself and shows exquisite taste. " Reports received from the Dean's office concerning attendance regulations show a decrease in the number of cuts permitted to a student. These revised attendance rules were adopted February 17, 1931, and went into effect immediately. All students are required to -attend the regular assembly with the following exceptions 1. Students carrying fewer than twelve credits. 2. Upper division students of this school. 3. Students working for the Normal school during the assembly period. 4. Students excused by the Director of the Training school because .of conflict with practice teaching. (The director of the training school shall report these cases directly to the Dean's office. " - Exemptions Few Students entitled to exemption from assembly attendance,' with the exception of those excused because of practice teaching, shall report to-the secretary to the Dean and be excused from attendance, or suffer the regular penalty from absence from assembly. , Students not exempted from attendance at assembly and who fail to attend or who are absent as often as six times without acceptable excuse shall have one credit, deducted from their current program. No penalty in excess of loss of one credit shall be inflicted for absence from assembly during any one quarter. Former Deductions The former regulations concerning cuts deducted one hour of credit for a total of fifteen absences from all classes deducted two hours of credit for a total of 25 absences from all classes and deducted one hour of credit for each additional ten hours of absence. Although the new rules are not so very different from the old ones they do bring down the total cuts considerably. The regulations now deduct one credit for each six absences from any one course and deduct one -credit at the end of each quarter for each ten absences from all classes.

B. Smith, the Bellingham Symphony Orchestra played its second concert of this season in the American theater. The personnel of the orchestra consisted not only of Bellingham people, but of fifteen members of the Seattle Symphony as well. The executive committee for the concert was managed by Mrs. C. B. Harter and consisted of William Gardiner, Lyman Judson, C. C. Up-shall, Mrs. C. X. Larrabee, Charles Larrabee, and C. H. Fisher. John R. Williams was concert master and Ethel Boynton was assistant concert master. The stage was decorated with blue curtains and, together with the beautiful dresses and black suits of the Symphony members, made an attractive appearance. Program The program was as follows: A long discussion concerning the finances of the -Klipsun featured the meeting of the Board of Control last Tuesday night. Suzanne Waters and David Morse, editor and business-manager, respectively, met with the board and gave a report of the present financial condition. Even though the Klipsun will have fewer pages than origin^ ally planned, the printing bid of the Union Printing Company is larger than expected. As the Klipsun has no contract they may call for outside bids unless a satisfactory agreement can be made. Gordon W. Leen, former business manager of The Viking, presented his final report, which was'for the month of December. Jack Greaves, present manager, presented his report for January, and both were accepted. Rec Hour Visitors Again discussing the Rec hour problem, the Board proposed and passed a resolution that a "liberal and benevolent construction of rules be stipulated for people who have attended this school, and- that all who have riot attended school here be graciously prevented from attending Rec hour." No committee was appointed to draw up these rules. Arthur Gravrock gave his report concerning the plaque to be placed at the memorial tree for school war veterans. "For $100 a plaque may be obtained which will contain the names of all veterans, while for $25 a plaque can be "purchased which will be a fitting memorial and contain a suitable inscription." The Devil's Disciple Thad: Ellis is the "DeoiTs Disciple" in the Shaw play of that name that is being presented by the Normal Drama Club next week.

Discussion was expected on whether or not the Sophomores will wear caps and gowns at their graduation exercises next June. The faculty voted against this at their last meeting. A committee was appointed to "A woman of magnetic personality, Miss Maud Sheerer casts a spell over her audience, taking them with her to the theaters of the world and presenting to their eyes the best of modern drama in her own fascinating manner." This quotation, taken from the Tar coma Times, describes the way Miss Sheerer captivated the members of the assembry Monday, February 23; with her reading of "Green Pastures." Partly Given Although there was not time for the entire play to be given, the reading was interesting, nevertheless. "Green Pastures'' is a play concerning the negro's religious point of view, extremely amusing in parts, but also disclosing the seriousness with which the negro looks at his religion. Offering the Lord a 10-cent "see-gar" and having the Lord dressed in a swallow-tailed coat are elements which seem to be somewhat new in thinking of religion, but they add a characteristic turn to the negro p l a y - ' Many Visits / Miss Sheerer has been to the Normal a number of times before and is not a stranger to a great many of the students.

INEXCUSABLE Wednesday night the Weber College debate team failed to arrive for its S C H E D U L E D debate with the Viking speakers. ;: We say SCHEDULED, for both the Weber and Bellingham officials hold signed contracts stating that the debate was to be held on that date. In the case of teams traveling long distances at~a time to make appearances, there is a chance that they will be unable to make connections. However, in the case of a school that makes a specific feature each year of sending debaters all over the continent, they are on to the ropes and know enough to keep their dates straight. If by an accident they do not appear, it is possible for them to make communication in time to declare just what happened. When they remain silent altogether, then " they are to be blamed, and blamed heavily.1 .'Last year, on the night that they spoke here they likewise had a signed agreement that they would appear for another debate at the same time. Yet in that case it was another school left holding the , prdverbial bag. When a school sends out people for advertisement and impression, they can soon lose all favor for themselves by such unethical maneuverings. As far-as we are concerned, we want to have nothing more to do with such administration of road trips, in debate or any other line of conf lictj as this Utah outfit puts up; ? _ _ O • ! ~ ..'- Professor Baker Brownell's contemporary speech class, at North- . western, is confronted with the proven problem as to why skirts grow shorter with good times, and longer in the depression period. Possibly the falling off on goods sales caused by short skirts helps bring on the depression? • , o GETTING BETTER A "liberal and benevolent construction of rules" for all those who have attended this school at some time or other, and have left in good faith with the institution, is to be adopted by the Board of Control as an aftermath to their recent Rec Hour legislation. We feel that this is a big step ahead in solving what we admit is a large and precarious problem as if* has been placed before the Board. We are all for this recent motion as a sequel to those of several weeks past, and feel that it will greatly strengthen efforts to make Rec Hours con-trolable. .-•*-• The Northwest Viking took a decided stand on the ruling in the February 6 editorials, under the title "Possess the Buckskin." At the time it ^stood that only graduates were to be alumni classified, and thereby through unusual circumstances those who have attended and are worthy could .be denied admission. The Board later expressed themselves as willing to make new motions for the better at any time good ones were presented, either from them or from the outside. We offered no suggestions, but are quite satisfied over the recently adopted measure. Things have not gone so well lately, and former Normalites have not gained the inner walls, while strangers and some having no school : connections have jumped the gap. Quite unfair and lost to purposeful legislation, so we heave a sigh of relief. • Articles have it that eight o'clock classes at the University of Rochester have been discontinued in some cases on account of too many . students arriving in tuxedoes. - ? It would be nice to get out of "eighters" that way here, but we all lack the necessary funds to hire tuxedoes and, consequently, must walk :to. class.each morning. •" • — — : —O : : — . . . . V / •.;' THE CLASS PAYS Those in charge of the Sophomore Valentine Dance were allowed to put the usual maximum amount of spangles on the big gym maple. Some student or group of persons sneaked in a considerable amount of ''slicker,*' and thus it was tracked all over the building. It was necessary for the class to add the cost of touching up the halls and) the refinishing of the gym surface to their already large group of bills. On top of this a valuable punch bowl was broken by someone not connected with the . affair, and this cost was likewise heaped on. All in all, things placed a heavy load on the class for the one party. : The first-case cited is the worst of the two. In a way, students . can't be blamed for wishing a perfect floor on which to dance, but rules are made for a purpose, and by taking things into their own hands these people worked a lot of {rouble on the dance throwers. It reeks with utter disregard for-those that must take on the responsibility, a decidedly large one, of working out such a dance so that the student body may ; enjoy; a social. favor. . B jIt isnaturally too bad that the same floor must be used for women's ; pj^ical; education programs during the week arid serve as a dancing ifc^datiqn on week-end days. Last year it was worked put to the best .•advantage for the, two forces by good co-operation on the part of the |;;-^apcers;"and; sponsors.-'r : :'• lt;:•. ';.;• '";'.'• •^•i^S^Ts^^^r Jthings havenot been so even, and as the classes must ?^|ii^^^e/dances have been; held back by extra applications of a wax ^that^r^ents slipping. : If this could be realized, all would profit; The cost of a Symphony Orchestra performance is estimated to be about $8Q0. AS Mr. Smith1, the conductor, announced (in response to an encore) last.. Tuesday., evening, the concert came out oh the losing end by about $500 in general figures... One hundred dollars in admission from the "student body plus approximately $200 from Bellingham music lovers makes about $300 in payment of the concert and nets about a five hundred dollar loss. What is the matter with the people of this city that they cannot support a Bellingham orchestra? Is it because pocket books are stretched to the breaking point now? Is it because Bellingham people have no ear f3r music? Has "canned'' music come to take the place of actual tones of an orchestra? It is generally known that the majority of the Bellingham public is in comfortable circumstances, and perhaps it is because of the fine radios they can afford that they have become lethargic, sluggish, in different, drowsy, and simply refuse to attend and support our concerts. Maybe our advertising campaigns are not extensive enough. Perhaps the people don't know about' our concerts. Here's another possibility; —if Mr. Smith should change his name to Haeraldotus Smythiniski— forget to cut his hair for about a year—lose control of the English language and demand about a thou sand dollars for bis services—-then perhaps the citizens would support them. What to do? What to do? Any suggestions? Student opinions welcomed. —W.S.N.S.— "Poems are made by fools like me"—but this week, though I've tried,.

Estimating there are 10,000 sight receiving sets in the United States, the De Forest Radio Company announces broadcasting of a daily television program over Station W2XCD at Passaic, N. J. The program is sent three times daily, with a ninety-minute period beginning at 9 p. m. E. S. T. Features to be broadcast this week included pictures of life in the desert, hunting bears in Alabama, a cab ride in the Twentieth Century Limited, mandolin and piano recital, a boxing match and a symphony orchestra concert. It seems as though the East were commercializing television pretty fast. I wonder how soon it will be popularized here? —W.S.N.S.— YE DIARY Ytt ---------- Northwest Viking - 1931 February 27 - Page 3 ---------- Ellensburg has entered a team in ihe"Independent Basketball tournament in Seattle. The team is made :'v^.^of;:.fimrinic^-^WU^cal:-stars; all of 'Whom are familiar; to local fans. With• the completion of. the Ellens-burg Normal school basketball schedule at an early date it was possible to add a few of this season's stars to a n already strong team. The late additions to the team were Haney, McPhee, and Bailey, all flashes of this year's squad.' The old cry thai football is hard on the participants* grades was squelched by KnuteR.och.ne in a talk before some U. of W. students this last week. Rockne said thai when the men were out on the field kicking the football around in the afternoon they had to slay in at night and study. But when they had their afternoons off they Would fool away their time and at night they would be out studying the moon with one of the opposite sex. He also stated that the players' grades were belter during the season than they were in the off-season. I t 's pretty early to give any summary of the basketball season yet, but it won't hurt to review it a little. To start with, the Vikings opened the season with a win from the Centralia Junior college, followed by another win from the strong St. Martins five. Then came the eastern road trip with the Vikings dropping games to the* Ellensburg Wildcats and to Cheney. They won one game on the trip and that was a non-conference game with the St. Michael's quintet of Yakima. They came home and got ready for another trip: this time they went down to Seattle, where they lost a one-sided game to the U. of W. Prosh. The next night they won a close game from C. P. S. Their next games were at home, where they lost games to Ellensburg and the University Freshmen, and took a fast game from the Cheney Savages. Now they are on their way to mix *with~"the"'Centralia Junior College and St. Martins. Wins from both of these teams will help make the season more of a success. The Vikings will end their basketball season against the College of Puget Sound on March 1. The Class B city hoop playoff has been forced to "go the limit of three games as a result of the Y. M. C. A. win over the Bostrom five in the second game of the series by the score of 34 to 24 last Wednesday night. The gas boys took the first game by the score of 36 to 25 on Tuesday. In each game there has been an outstanding point getter... The first night Bliss of Bos-trom's garnered 15 points to be high point scorer of the evening. Wednesday night Woitulewicz, guard for'the Y, scored 16 points to lead in scoring for the bame. Next Tuesday the final game of the series will be played at 8 o'clock and the winner will receive the large trophy presented by the Harming- Hardware of this city. It's going to be kind of bad for the women this week-end when the Outside girl's informal takes place with the stars and flashes away fighting for their alma mammy on the basketball court. Maybe some men should be imported for the dance? Over at W. S. C, Line Coach Buck Bailey has introduced a new game which he hopes to train his football men the art of passing and receiving a ball until it becomes a second nature with them. The game is sort of a.cross between basketball and football, hence the name "cross-ball" The game is played with, ten men on each side. Their object is to pass the football through a hoop about three feet in diameter placed upon a yard high support at each end of the 80-yard field. The goals are protected by an eight-foot semi circle marking the limits to which a player may approach. ^ Play starts at center with an pui-6f-bounds play by the team winning the toss. A player may take five steps forward, after which he must either try for the hoop or pass laterally. The receiver of a lateral pass may make one forward pass. A dropped; ball or a pass knocks down 'gives the ball to the defensive side. In case of a held j^all the^offensive side takes the ball /and starts:,; pjay gt;wUh an out of TAKE TWO STRAIGHT GAMES FROM MEN'S CLUB IN TWO GAME INTRAMURAL SERIES. RACE ENDED The stalwart sons of ihe Philo Club, who have been kings in the intramural basketball tournaments for several seasons past, are today boasting another championship pennant. By virtue of a 23-16 win over the Men's Club, the Philos have again proven their superiority in the inter- club games. This game terminated a two game series for the pennant, the Philos taking the first match 19-28. The Philos, playing at their best, proved to be packing too strong a scoring punch for the smaller Men's Club quintet. On the other hand, the Club were unable to get organized and as a result put forth a rather poor effort to down the Philos. Club Start Fast Starting out at a fast pace, the Club rolled up a four point lead before the Philos could find the basket. After the Philos hit their stride the Club lead was • immediately wiped out. At the end of the first period the champions held a 6-4 margin. In the first half of the second period the Philos continued their scoring spree and jumped into a 12-4 lead. The Club finally found the net, however, and crept up to within two points of the Philos. From this point the winners began to play very cautious ball and held a seven point lead when the big game ended. Game Rough Many fouls were committed during the fracas. The Club were the greatest offenders, with Campbell, Jones and Thorpe retiring to the bench via that route. Moe was the only offender for the Philos. There was no outstanding star of the game. Stearns was high point man for the game, with nine markers. Wilder and Thompson led the winners, with seven each. I n the first, game, the Philos downed the Men's Club "in a slow game last Tuesday, 28-19. The Club was unable to flash as it has in the games previous to this and as a result went down in defeat. Their playing was slow and listless and they seemed to be unable to do anything with the ball after they got their hands on it. Only a few lucky shots kept them within striking distance. Play Cautiously The Philos, although playing a cautious and careful game, showed signs of not enough practice. Colin Campbell and Jones were the sparkplugs of the Club offense, rolling in seven and six points, respectively. Moe starred for the winners with nine, Baxter following with seven. Philos— Men's Club— Thompson 4 F 7 C. Campbell Baxter 7. F 2 Thorpe Moe 9 C 6 Jones Wilder 4 G Iverson Bushby 4 G Adkinson Subs: Club, Stearns (4). The Thespian Girls', and Outside Girls' teams are tied for first place in the intramural games at the pres^ ent date, with a tota}. of three games played and having won all three for each .team. Should the teams play at the same speed they are hitting now, a special game will be called to decide the title, as the dope seems to point to them as possible winners for first place. All teams, with' the exception of the Vanadis Bragi team, have played three games each; The scores to date are as follows: Team one, won 2, lost 1; team two, won 2, lost 1; team three, won 1, lost 2; team four, won 0, lost 3; Edens Hall, won 1, lost 2. ADVANCED CLASS STARTS IN NATURAL DANCING Growing out of thg interest in dancing shown by women of the natural dancing classes, a group in advanced dancing has been functioning since the beginning of the quarter, under the coaching of Miss Mildred Jewell. The groups working tentatively toward a dance recital. Some are developing solo dances. I t is hoped that some of the more outstanding folk dance students will be able to present a group including Russian, Scandinavian, and Spanish dances. VARSITY PLAYERS TO MEET RANGERS AT LACEY; AND CENTRALIA JUNIOR COLLEGE. EXPECT CLOSE GAME "Y" TANK IS SCENE OF WOMEN'S SWIM MEET Team. I defeated Team II in the women's intramural swimming meet held at the Y, W. C. A. last Thursday with a score of 8-5 points for all events. .The swimming showed good form and afforded some exciting moments for the gallery. Miss Marjory -Horton, coachV expects some good results from the second year people who are on the squads to make up a strong team for later competion. Golf Is New Sport On Viking Program Golf is the new sport that will be installed in the Viking curriculum this spring. The team will, be coached by Sam Carver and will compete with the other normals although Cheney has not said definitely whether she will shoot golf with or not. The team will be chosen by ladder competition and will start as soon as the weather permits. There will be three players on the team, and it has not been determined yet as to the awards that the players will receive, although it is thought that they will receive minor "W's". Coach Carver loaded his varsity basketball team in cars this morning and swung down towards the south for their last road trip of the season, which includes a game tonight with St. Martins College and one tomorrow night with Centralia Junior College. All hands are in fine fettle for the oncoming battles. Probably never before during the present season has the team been in better physical condition. Skotheim is the only member on the dubious list and he is rapidly recovering from his recent siege of flu. Coach Carver plans on getting to Seattle early enough for lunch. The team will loosen up its joints and take to the cars for the last lap of the first day's trip. They will get to Lacey in plenty of time to rest for the game with the Rangers tonight. Second Meeting This game at tiacey will be the second meeting of the Vikings and the Rangers this season. The first game ended in favor of the Vikings. St. Martins will be harder to beat at home. They have one of the best teams in this part of the state, on paper. Fuller and Wiatrak are good enough as individual players to play on anybody's team. If St. Martins are clicking they will be hard chewing for the Carveirtes. On the other hand, if the Vikings are playing ball as they can play, they should come out ahead. Tomorrow night's game with the Centralia. team should be almost a replica of the St. Martins affair. St. Martins and Centralia are of about even strength and both play a hard, driving game. Koski and Gelatt are the towers of strength for the Centralians. Playing with the driving personality of Coach Rairdon behind them, the Centralia team is bound to be hard to beat. Rairdon does not neglect the finer points of the game, but he does insist on fight and drive. He can be depended upon to have his boys on edge.

The Devil's Disciple (played by Thad Ellis), for all his deviltry "and irreligious utterances, is the only one among a crowd of canting sinner who has a spark of diviner fire about' him. He proves that, in spite of a wretched upbringing as the black sheep of the family, he has the stuff in him that makes him a man for "a' that and a' that" ••]-•• Portrays Burgoyne A surprisingly fine study is that of Pastor Anderson, the Presbyterian preacher in the little town of Web-sterville. Anderson starts as the conventional type, but develops in the play_uhtil he becomes a robust, dashing figure at the close. The part of Anderson is portrayed by John James. The play is especially noteworthy for the interesting portrait it con-; tains of ^General Burgoyne, soldier, playwright, arid wit of the late eighteenth century. Shaw's handling of Burgoyne is strictly within the authority history gives him. This part, taken by Marshall Bacon, adds greatly to the interest of the closing scenes. In referring to Burgoyne, Shaw makes the following remarks: "General John Burgoyne, who is presented in this play for the first time on $he English stage, is not a conventional stage soldier, but as faithful a portrait as it is in the nature of stage portraits to be. Disliked Revolution "It is only within quite recent years that any general recognition has become possible for the feeling that led Burgoyne, a professed enemy of oppression in India and elsewhere, to accept his American command when so many other officers threw up their commissions rather than serve in a civil war against the colonies. He sympathized with the colonists; but when they proposed as a remedy the disruption of the empire, he regarded that as a step backward in civilization. "It will never be possible to prove that the government of the victor has been better for mankind than the government of the vanquished would have been. It is true that the victors have no doubt on the point,- but to the dramatist, that certainty of theirs is only part of the human comedy." rogram Tuesdayi^sseml ''r DeUghthig'^ttxei; hearts; • of • music lovers, '^e\:W lt;^wiod'r4u^^t gt;';''wjb^pse members are all solo players in the PPPPP

XXXI-^NO: 3 WASHINGTON STATE NORMAL SCHOOL, BELLINGHAM, WASHINGTON Friday, October 16, 1931 -* ffotiiialite ABSTRACT ACHES A MURDER SPASMODIC PSALM A DIRGE By D. Custer Anderson Did yon ever sit alone in a hushed twilight . . . while the last rays of the sun played hide and seek in a few feathery clouds, close to the horizon line . . . a'quiet bay mirroring' all the heavenly glory? Then didn't you feel an inner ache to know what life was all about? To know the whys and wherefores? Didn't you feel a horrible, grasping inner urge to express something, with a still greater horrible knowledge that you couldn't . . . that it was beyond your power? And as you stare abstractedly over the scene before you attention is centered on a fast motor-driven ship gathering speed, outward-bound to the Orient and your imagination pictures in its stead a full rigger with pyramids of white sails, and you wonder if beauty isn't taking a back seat in this modern world . . . This ache for an abstract beauty and power of expression comes to most of us, especially to those who have introverted tendencies . .' . it is times like these when the artist aches to be able to paint his inspiration and the writer grieves for lack of sufficient words to express his inner feelings . . . It is in a moment like this that the tolerant smile, of the extrovert at the vain plunges of the introvert into a romantic, beautiful past, "will hurt," as Donn Byrne says, "under the wind swept grass." So you modern extraverts be tolerant with the introverts and "live and let live." W.S.N.S. At Columbia University there seems to be a decided difference between undergraduate and professorial speaking habits. According to the students in attendance, too many profs are "murdering" the King's English. Too many faculty members are completing a third person singular subject with "don't" and using singular pronouns in reference to plural subjects, etc. Many of our faculty members have attended that University and we haven't noticed them picking up any of the bad habits alleged to be in practice at their alma mammy, but they'll bear watching! Hqwever, remember "people living in glass houses shouldn't take a bath . . . so don't correct somebody and drown in your own ill-manners. Watch your step and place.

The library organization is well under way with student staff members selected, a recreational reading section planned, and the library technique classes at work. Student members of the library staff, selected for this quarter, are: Oliver Field, reference room; Alice Jewett and Mary Frieze, circulation; Rita Allison, Stanley Smith, Herman Tegenfeldt, and Clarke Hubler, reserve book room; Helen Johnson and Marjory Brandt, shelf workers; and Caroline Sharnbroich, children's room. Recreational Reading Very soon in the fall quarter a new plan will be instituted, that of having part of the library turned over to recreational reading. A section of the main reading room will be turned over to this and here students may read for the pleasure of reading. The library is open every evening for the use of students. According to Miss Wilson, students should not. hesitate to come and study there. There are plenty of tables for all the students to study in the main room as well as in the other two rooms. "I am going to keep the / W ' pin as a reminder of friendships which I hope to keep and . associations which have been pleasant without exception... I rather imagine it will mean even more to me as time goes on." "May I express my belated but sincere appreciation of the award which reached me several days ago?" Thus does Mr. James Carrell express his sentiments for the honorary 'W pin awarded and sent to him at the end of the summer quarter. The excerpts are taken from Mr; Carreli's letter to the president of the Students' Assocation in appreciation of the remembrance.

DOWELL IS E L E C T ED Elsie O'Donnell and Jimmie Stoddard, newly elected representatives to the Board of Control, took up official duties at the Board meeting Wednesday afternoon. Election of a business manager to the Klipsun a vote of congratulations, and two reports made up the large part of the agenda. Charles Dowell, prominent in student activities, was elected business manager of the school annual, the Klipsun. This gosition should have been filled at the same time as many other student offices elected by the Board of Control near the end of the summer quarter. The lack of applicants at that time delayed election. Northwest Viking Congratulated Congratulations were voted to Roger Chapman, editor of the Northwest Viking, and his staff in regards to the special edition of the paper last week.

I was out after Marie Montana, and I found her in a coffee shop, but she wasn't drinking coffee. O! Don't get me wrong. Luncheon had just begun. ' "She informed me that her ambition always has been to be a singer, even from the time she was a small child. Her first appearance on the stage was at the age of eleven, when she was in an amateur program. A ^gentleman was trying to find someone to take a part, when he saw her shinny up a pole. He decided she had lots of spunk and asked tier to sing. She was born in Helena, Mont. Her given name is Ruth. Kellogg Waite, but when she was in Italy, the Italians could not pronounce it correctly, so she changed it to Marie Montana, using the name of her native state. As Miss Montana had sprained an ankle in alighting from a train,. I offered to drive her to her hotel In my ;car. When we said goodbye she invited me to come back-tage and see her after the concert.

Double or single, and they argue it pro and con. The policy ^ e present Board of Control have decided upon seems to be the most reasonable and generally satisfactory. Rec hours from four to five have their advantages and more nearly serve the purpose intended for Rec hours, that of ah all-school playtime at the end of a week's work. They have their drawbacks, too, mainly the shortness of time and the fact that some students have to work during this hour. Double rec hours from 8 to 10 o'clock in the evening have the advantage of time and "atmosphere" but more nearly resemble regular dances than a school recreational hour. Evening rec hours have their place and that is to provide a place to go on Friday nights when there is absolutely no other student affair scheduled for that time. We feel, however, that they should be the exception rather than the rule and that the function of the afternoon recreational hour be kept in mind. —o— Would the students of Bellingham Normal like to know something of the registration figures of this school? Just read the daily newspapers then. No figures for publication in the Viking. —o— MAKE IT SUCCESSFUL Although the appointment of a Homecoming chairman was delayed for various reasons until this week and only a little over two weeks before the event, we have every reason to believe that this Homecoming will equal those of former years. Earl Hutchins, general chairman, has shown himself a capable and conscientious leader and no better choice could have been made had there been an even longer delay. To organize a Homecoming celebration for a school requires much work, much planning and perfect co-operation. Earl will only be able , to organize a successful Homecoming if he finds the proper spirit among the students. Not only those on committees but everyone in school must enter into the Homecoming spirit. The tradition of Homecoming is long established in our American colleges and Bellingham Normal is no exception. The annual event has in times past been one of the high spots of the year. This year we are looking forward to it with great enthusiasm. We know what it has been, so we know what it can be. And we're all going to see that it is what it should be. —o- Of interest to all thinking people is the present so-called depression, and upsetting of our economic structure. It is not to be wondered at then when a great Protestant church in national convention takes up the problem and comes to the following conclusion: "Side by side with . . . misery and idleness, there are warehouses bursting with goods . . . breadlines . . . jobless men . . . money in abundance. . . The conception of society as made up of autonomous independent individuals . . . is as faulty from the point of view of economic realism as it is from the standpoint of Christian idealism. Our traditional philosophy of rugged individualism must be modified. . ." It is very much to be wondered at, however, when such a personage as George W. Wickersham denounces the conclusions of the church body as soviet, and insinuates that he thinks the policy of "rugged individualism" may be carried to the nth degree. And Mr. Wickersham is the same man, isn't he, who nosed a commission over the country and found such "shocking" communistic conditions in some of our American educational institutions? . -o The Washington State College Extension Service now comes out with the information that sweet apples cider has about the same food value as fresh apples. Quite so, probably, but what about hard cider? Speak up, Clarence True Wilson! It was Fredrick Hebbel who said "The poet, like the priest, drinks the sacred blood, and all the world feels the presence of God". » Q. • Yes, quite true, if the poet is a poet and. if he is not he never arrives. The public Wont let him. "Everything becomes what it can become.' The poet strips his soul to the core and shows the world the song there just in case it will amuse and entertain. He crushes the very petals of his soul that the nectar there might perfume the world he loves. * _ Q _ _ * And if he fails he lashes his heart until it bleeds great drops of bitter anguish. Did you ever dream that life was just a silver bubble from the eerie pipe of some ethereal spirit and sailing aloft in the blue nothingness of the sky, waiting for a butterfly to steer it your way? *_0_* You simply forget that bubbles always break when you touch them, leaving only a little bit of dampness as proof of their existence. *__0_* But deep in your heart lingers the memory of their iridescent shine that caught the fairy in you and sent you on flights into the land where, elves are kings and children play. * _ o _ * Don't laugh at us, my friend, this is not fantasy for only today we saw a birch tree burning silver in a black forest. If folks would turn their eyes to the splendor of these sunsets, breathe the pureness of this air, they would crowd out all fear and thought of depression. *_0__* When there is so much grandeur around us, how can we feel depression ? * o * "But through the autumn burning and impassioned, God tells us that real beauty never dies." * Q •* Well, Mt. Baker lodge has burned, but they can never destroy mirror lakes, mountain cliffs, glacier streams and great blue, far flung valleys of that fairy-land. The Lodge was man made. —*—o—*— One finds so much in this world worth while in spite of the fact that our good firiend gt; the cynic, laughs at this interval. *_o__* One day I found a campfire welcome in the eyes of my friend. *_o__* I heard the night wind rattling dry leaves outside my window Discovery of Garden Leads to Hallowe'en Party for Children The fourth graders of the Training school, in preparing their school garden plot for fall bulbs, little realized that their labor would result in a gala Hallowe'en luncheon which would provide entertainment for seventy-three persons. Yet their accidental discovery of large numbers of beets and carrots growing in the garden planted by last year's fourth grade class, prompted them to plan and execute the luncheon, which was held Friday noon, October 9, in the club room at Edens Hall. Guests of honor included President C. H. Fisher, Miss Mary Rich, and the entire fifth grade. Pupils Take Charge Committees consisting of members of the class prepared the vegetables, arranged the tables, designed the place-cards, and took charge of the serving. The menu consisted of buttered beets, steamed carrots, bread and butter sandwiches, pumpkin pie, and milk. Decorations were in the Hallowe'en motif. The meal concluded with toasts and two piano selections. o LETTER FROM | R R E LL THANKS ASSOCIATION (Continued from Page One) *.—. j We Wish You J f "Many Happy Returns j 1 of the Day!" j Bill Sells—Oct. 18.

This is a Contest sponsored by the Columbia University for publications from more than four hundred small colleges and normal schools throughout the United States. Last year Mr. Carrell assumed the advisorial duties to the school annual, the Klipsun. He also coached Normal debate teams through what are reputed to have been two very successful seasons. Students Award In recognition of these services, the Students' Association, through action of the Board of Control, awarded Mr. Carrell a "W" pin. The pin was the official school "W" pin with pearls inset, and had the words honorary inscribed on the bar. Mr. Carrell resigned his position here to instruct and do research work in the Department of Speech at Northwestern University.

This surprise is in the Dr. Itchie form of a man who is known the world over as the greatest mystic alive. As he introduces himself, "I am the world's greatest prognosticaior!" You 11 purobably call him the World's greatest prevaricator before he is through this season. May we introduce to you Itchie Toesys, D.L. D., B. O., et ah, who, throughout the season, will give his score predictions as he sees them in the stars, crystals, mirrors, etc. Itchie's picture appears at the left as he looked when he arrived at the Viking office early this week. He has been spending his vacation, which has lasted for the past fifteen years, at Sedro-Wool-ley and Medical Lake. 'Nuff said. gladiators today The journey to the Tri-Normal championship this fall is going to lead over a rough and perilous trail. At Ellensburg, Coach Leo Nicholson seems to be playing the part of a diplomat. He states that his team does not look impressive in its workouts but probably will be as strong as last year's eleven. Last week the Wildcats dropped a hard game to Gonzaga University, 26-7, but the week before they downed the Lutheran College in Tacoma 13- 0. The "Wildcats will bear watching, states Itchie. gladiators today At Cheney, the Savage cohorts look to be heading for a banner year. With such stars as Peterson, McNew and Day as backs, and Stannard, Roundy and Hodge in the line, the Savages are going to be plenty tough for any team this season. The Cheney eleven showed plenty of power last week in downing the Lewiston Normal 50-0. Watch the Savages, says Itchie. gladiators today As for the Vikings—well, more can be said after the game this afternoon. Our star gazer, Whata-man, after an evening of meditation in the wilds of Cornwall Park, predicts thirien to nought score in favor of the Vikings. gladiators today We never expect to see a bet- Iter punt than the lone booted by Les Williams in I the game last Sat-lurday against the I Navy. Kicking •from past mid- | field the pigskin [sailed through the lair in a perfect spiral, curv i n g genlty t o w a r ds the side of the field and going outside on the five-yard line. Which reminds us that Carlson of the Pacific Lutheran Gladiators did some polished kicking against Ellensburg. According to reports, Carlson's kicks were much better than the average, two of them sailing seventy yards. gladiators today Roy Abbott's ailing leg is now back in shape and Abbie is more than raring to make up for lost time in the next few games. Abbott is an end from last year's squad and a good one, too. He is a powerful man on defense and excells in the art of snaring passes. With Abbott and Cox at the wing berths with Hogile, Flint, Collier, Loomis and Whipple as reserves, opposing backs should find it extremely difficult to make a great deal of yardage at the ends. gladiators today Just before this copy Went to the printer, Itchie staggered* into the Viking office overcome from mental exertion. His mental ingenuity consisted of predicting that U. S. C. will drop Oregon by four touchdowns; Stanford to beat Oregon State; Washington to beat Idaho, 18-0; California to drop to Washington State. : gladiators today -'•• VIKINGS WIN OVER STRONG NAVY TEAM IN CLOSE TUSSLE Sinko Scores Lone Tally in Game Featuring Light Defense By Viking Line. NAVY PUTS UP BATTLE Famous last words: see you at the game! Bombarding the Port Townsend Coast Guard with a great. display of offensive football, Coach Sam Carver's Viking grid eleven "sank" the visiting eleven 6-0 last Saturday. Keeping the ball in Navy territory for virtually the entire game, the Vikings showed plenty of offensive strength but seemed to lack the necessary punch to score when within distance. Plenty of holes were punched in the guardsmens' line when in midfield, but with their backs to the goal line were a veritable wall on defense: Navy Line Strong The Vikings started slow, or was the Navy just too strong in the first quarter for the local eleven to gain through? Nevertheless, the Car-verites were within the Navy thirty-yard line when the first quarter ended. With Williams, Flowers and Shelton alternately lugging the pigskin, the Normal immediately advanced to within the ten-yard marker. Here the Navy "put 'er full steam ahead," and flung back the Viking attack for six consecutive downs. The Navy punted out of danger momentarily and then braced themselves for another Viking offense. A pass from Shelton to Williams was completed on the Navy twenty-yard lines. Again the guardsmen displayed unexpected strength and held the local aggregation for downs. At this point of the game Coach Carver inserted Smith, Harris and Sinko into the Viking backfield, leaving Williams as fullback. Pass Good Williams failed to gain on the first attempt of this combination, but on the next play Harris, heady Viking quarter, faded back past midfield and heaved a beautiful pass to Cox who was finally downed on the' Navy eighteen-yard line. Cox's receiving the pass was even more spectacular than the gain itself. Fairly snatching the ball from the defensive back, Cox tried hard to break away but was stopped. The hilltoppers then advanced the ball to the ten-yard line but were again stopped by the fighting guardsmen. With but seconds left in the first half, Harris again heaved a long forward which was intercepted by the crafty visitors. Then the fun began. The elongated pigskin changed hands no less than five times on as many plays. Intercepted pass and fumbles did the work. Line Looks Good In the first half the Viking line looked exceptionally strong. Holding the Navy to four first downs, two of them coming from passes, the Vikings showed plenty of defensive ability and time and again threw the Navy backs for losses. An intercepted Navy pass, by Harris, in the third quarter paved the way for the Viking's lone score. Taking the ball on his own forty-yard line, Harris gave a fine exhibition of broken field running and returned the ball to Navy's thirty-yard marker. Fine blocking was given him on this run. Breaking through the line for short gains, Sinko, Williams and Shelton advanced to the three-yard line. Sinko Scores Here Sinko, flash halfback, virtually "spiked" the Navy guns by going over on a long end run. Conversion failed. The Vikings kicked-off to the visitors but forced them to punt. The Navy then held the winners for downs in mid-fieid and they were forced to kick. Williams stepped back and got off one of the finest r FOOTBALL SCHEDULE Oct. 16 Normal vs. Pacific Lutheran.

It was a beautiful spiral and dusted the lime on the five-yard line. The Navy was forced to kick again but the Vikings immediately advanced to the ten-yard line. Again the Navy held and took the ball. But after a Navy punt to midfield the Viking eleven, working like a well-oiled clock, ripped the guardsman defense to shreds and were on the ten-yard line again as the quarter ended. Navy Defense Strong With a regularity that was marvelous to watch, the Navy again stopped the Vikings in their tracks and punted out of danger. With Sinko and Williams leading the attack the local aggregation set their teeth and started another drive on the weakening Navy team. The game ended with the ball on the twelve-yard line, with the Blue and White warriors fighting hard for another touchdown. The Viking defense was very good in the second period, holding the visitors to two first downs. On offense the winners sparkled like nobody's' business but lacked the punch inside the ten-yard line. Sinko, Harris, Williams and Shelton were the biggest ground-gainers for the hilltop squad with the line functioning weil from end to end. Fine blocking by the Viking backs and ends accounted for the long gains made at the ends and tackles during the game. Williams proved that he was a past artist at the blocking game, taking his man out with regularity. Frodle, Cable Star Frodle, Alerdice and Cable were the big guns of the Navy attack. The Navy line proved rather weak in midfield but showed plenty of defensive football when inside their own ten-yard line.

Ellis Baxter, a graduate of a local high school, is progressing rapidly as. a center for the Viking line. Undoubtedly Baxter will see plenty of service as t he season progresses. Nelson Brewer and A. Charlesworth, guards, graduated from Chehalis high. Both tip the beams at better than one-seventy and are fast for their positions. Sid Comfort is a graduate from Montesano and a very good prospect for the guard position. Sid has already played in the last two games and shows plenty of aggressiveness. Tackles Rangy Howard Durbin, from Auburn, and Ed McLean, a local man, are out for the tackle berths on the Viking line. Both men are rangy and fast and will cause plenty of worry to the opposing offense when they take the field. Lloyd Loomis, 'from Warrenton, Oregon, and Milton Flint, Custer, are out for the wing berths this fall. Flint is the heavier of the pair but both are showing up well in scrimmage. Jim Gillespie, Tacoma, Jack Mal-lahan, Bellingham, and Jack Mor-ley, Kent, are all guards. The trio are plenty heavy and aggressive and should provide plenty of backing for Faulkner, Christy, Charlesworth and Brewer. Jim Denton, a graduate of Kirkland high, is providing plenty of competiion at the center position. Bill Whipple, end, from Mount Vernon, will see service before the season is over. This group of men should provide plenty of reserve material for the veterans, Abbott, Cox, Faulkner, Sutton, and the new prospects, Hogile, Turner, Berg, Comfort, and Sybrant. Blocking Weak In the backfield, Coach Sam Carver has a host of men to choose from. Nearly all are on an equal basis with the result that many new combinations are being made. The big weakness at present seems to be the inability of the veterans to hit their stride in the blocking department of the game. When this weakness is healed, Coach Carver will have plenty of fast, powerful men in the backfield berths. Along with Flowers, Shelton, Iverson, Cook, Williams, Donovan, Harris, and Sinko who were mentioned last week there are several other prospects out. Roland Gisberg, plunging fullback, a local player, is giving the opposing teams plenty to think about in the last few scrimmages.

Shackled and bound in the guise of prisoners they were compelled under the ROYAL ORDER OF THE PADDLE SQUAD to drag themselves up the three flights of stairs which led to the Hall of Justice. Many were the "oh's" and "ouches" when the unfortunate victims fell into the unmerciful hands of the worthy wielders of the oaken paddles. Dragged into the court room the charges against the prisoners were competently dealt out by Helen Edgar, superior judge. Sworn in by Gerda Jenson, the bailiff, the quaking victims received their sentences. - During the dinner hour Wednesday evening, Lucile Coleman and Kathleen Cronin danced a Spanish tango much to the amusement and delight of the diners. Emily Dow and Louise Minter served their sentences by scrubbing the front lights of the dormitory with tooth-brushes. Anne Eckert delighted tht group with her interpretive dancing with a broom stick and carrying on an intelligent conversation at the same time with her imaginary partner. Florence Hany sang "The Pagan Love Song" at a table full of boys. All the initiates had to appear at dinner with one-half of their faces plastered with cold cream and the other half brilliantly made up. In addition to their personal attire they were compelled to eat the three meals with their knives—they found that mush and soup are very delightful when eaten in this manner. "I'm a silly little freshman" was the phrase dedicated to the supreme Sophs whenever they met. Those who headed committees in charge were: Gerda Jensen, general chairman; Lucile Jordan, paddle squad; Grace McBain, stunt committee; Helen Shipley, entertainment; and Margaret Fuller, refreshment. The guests for the evening were: Miss Gertrude Longley, Miss Anna Ullin, Miss Nora Countryman, Miss Augusta Pragst, and Mrs. Crim-mons. WHAT THEY'RE WEARING i—«- [ Girls, when they went out to swim, Once dressed like Mother Hubbard; Now they have a bolder whim, They dress more like her cupboard. i t is time to get busy with the knitting needle if you want to be fashionable this winter. One finds that the well-dressed co-ed chooses her costume to harmonize with the soft browns, greens and russets so characteristic of the autumn season. Ambitious knitters will tackle whole suits and dresses as well as blouses and sweaters that will be suitable for either class room wear, rec hour or street wear. It is very smart this Fall to complete your costume with one of those saucy little crocheted and knitted berets which are tilted so jauntily over the right eye. THEATER GUILD WILL PRESENT NEW PLAY The Bellingham theat*r guild will present "Enter Madame", October 21 in the Auditorium, with several Normal students taking parts. Mrs. Lois Holt Brown, a prominent musician in Bellingham, will direct the play. Included in the cast for this production are Mrs. Patrick Johnson (lead), Mrs. F. X. Pelegren, Mrs. Celeste Jolly, Miss Janet Lamoreau, Miss Eilleen Morrison, Julian Brown (lead), Harry Klein, Charles Brown, and Frank V. Allyn. The price of admission for students has been set at 35c. The play will start at 8 p . m .

Empress Eugenie hats are in evidence with practically all of the varied creations. Tea frocks of frostkrepe with cowl necks and bishop sleeves in any of the three most popular shades of the season, brown, green, or black are quite the last word in fashion tastes. Former Normalite Loses Life While Hunting in Woods Saturday HEALTH GROUP MEET ROOMING CONDITIONS Reports of recent health examinations and housing conditions formed the topics for discussion at a meeting of the school health committee in Edens' hall club room, Tuesday, Oct. 13. Among results of the discussion were: that housing conditions are steadily improving, that more men students are taking housekeeping rooms and that about the same number of women as usual are housekeeping and working for their board. This health group is a standing committee appointed by President C. H. Fisher to attend to the health problems confronting the students of the school. The following comprise the committee headed by Miss Ruth Weyth-man, chairman: Miss Adele M. Jones, Mr. W. J. Marquis, Miss May Mead, Miss Kathleen O'Malley, Mr. S. E. Carver, Miss Gertrude Long-ley, Miss Linda Countryman, Miss Margery Horton, Miss Mildred Jewell, Miss Florence E. Johnson, Miss Mary E. Rich, and President C. H. Fisher. Claude Haddox, principal of the Saxon school, lost his life last Saturday afternoon while hunting in the Skookum creek district. Haddox, a former Normal student, met death when he missed his foothold in a steep canyon and broke his back as he catapulted toward the creek, near which he is said to have struck a log. Haddox is survived by his parents, Mr. and Mrs. T. H. Haddox, Clipper, and six brothers, Leo, Gerald, John, and Roy, at Clipper; Carl, Acme; and Tom, Pendleton, Ore. The tragedy was a very great shock to his many friends. As a result of the tragedy the Saxon school has been closed temporarily. Funeral services were held at the Acme^ Presbyterian church, Wednesday at 2 p. m. Interment took place in the Saxon cemetery with Rev.

There was a motion made and passed that the president appoint a committee to study and print copies of such a fornv Ruckmick is Re-appointed I t was announced at the meeting that Mr. Ruckmick had been reappointed by President Fisher to continue as faculty representative on the Board of Control for another year. Mr. Ruckmick has served in this capacity for the past three years. I t was voted that Mr. Bond and President Colin Campbell purchase a book in which to keep Board of Control minutes. The book is to be one suitable to keep all minutes and reports of the Board as a permanent record for posterity. Rec Hour Discussed After a lengthy discussion it was voted to hold Rec hours on Friday afternoon from four o'clock until five-thirty. It was also decided to investigate the matter of time from all standpoints. The first step will be an interview with the faculty committee on student affairs to obtain their reaction. Ford Gives Report Sam Ford reported on his trip to the East in August as representative of the Western division of Associated Bookstore managers, and as representative of the students Co-op. The western division paid Mr. Ford's transportation expenses and the Coop stood for the remainder. On his trip Mr. Ford spent considerable time visiting university and college bookstores and many publishing houses. Through these visits many valuable ideas and special prices on books and merchandise were obtained. Mr. Ford was gone for a period of four weeks. In that time he attended the National convention of Bookstore managers in Denver and traveled from there to New York. Second of a series of artist programs was the assembly held last Tuesday, presenting two Seattle musicians, Kolia Levienne, Russian- American cellist; and Frank Leon, pianist. A group of selections were played by both artists, including several solos by each. Mr. Levienne is a pupil of Professor Julius Klengel, a renowned master, and was graduated from the Leipzig and Petrograd Imperial Conservatories of Music. Since coming to America he has been named, by American critics, one of the most prominent contemporary 'cello artists. Mr. Leon is associated with the Cornish School in Seattle and is staff artist with broadcasting station K-O-M-O. Due to the short assembly period, several numbers were omitted from the program.

Oiyihpia inv the attitude t b ^ the ihpee Nannil prexies DIDv go to Olympia—« gt;mething's bound to give. In spite of the governor's pruning of the educational budget, the aUow-: jiu^M;;^;.i^^bIy;ibe_^n*K'd. Bel-] linghain Normal subniitted a budget totaling $968,962, which included the Ijaitiir. educational huildtag. This week, Presidents Fisher, R. T. Hargreavesi : lt;bf;; Cheney, arid Selderi Smyser, of EUensburg, appeared before the senatorial committee to discuss GovernorHartley's revisions of their budget requests. Besides discussing their budget problems, the new f'quota basis" which will limit the number of graduates of the three institutions to the yearly demand •Ior teachMSi was taken up. Dr. Fisher suggested a quota of 300 graduates for our Normal, 200 for Ellensburg and a few more than 200 :'foT/'Cheneyi :;•';'It. is clear that there will be some change in the systems of the teacher training institutions. Just what the change will be is still under heated 'discussion. Unless the budget is iri-creased and additional funds air lowed, it is obvious that during next year operations for this institution will be crippled. As,, a matter of fact, this new quota basis will not greatly affect us. In the first place, the number of graduates has fallen .hi recent years from approximately 500 graduates to an average of about 356. Governor ^Hartiey. is correct at least in asserting that the output Of teachers far :. exceeds the demand for them, and it has been long felt that this factor is creating a serious situation among the teachers of the state. ' -Here is a warning—pretty soon the days are going to get springlike, the birds are going to sing, the trees will begin to bud arid put oh their spring coats of green, little streams are going to iaugh and gurgle, enticingly beckoning you from school routine, and you are •going to fall by the wayside and blissfully bask in the warm sunlight beside a sparkling stream, aimlessly pull at some shiny new weed arid wonder what it is all about. You are going to look up at the little squirrel and blankly convince yourself that loyesawunnerfulthing. Those are tnedays when ambition will be a last thought. A little day-dreaming is B.

Concerning a motion last week that "Alumni be allowed to attend the Rec hour without a permit," the Board explaind that students who have attended this school are not alumni unless they have received a diploma. At the Rec hour last Friday many ex-students who had riot graduated were present. These students must have a special permit from the office of the dean of women in order to attend, according to Charles Dowell, chairman of the Rec hour. To Make Check The. board will compile a list from the school records of all those who have attended the Normal. Iii this way they will be able to make a definite check ori those attending the Rec hour. It was further asked that students who had any complaints to make concerning the Rec hour or any other activity under the jurisdiction of the board should appear in person and make the complaint. It meets every Tuesday afternoon at 4 o'clock in, the Students' Association office and will welcome criticism and reports at that time. Rec Hour Today A single Rec hour will be held this afternoon from 4 to 5 o'clock and the chairman again stressed the point that the music will begin on time and last only one hour. Arthur Gravrock reported that a ceremony will be held some time in the spring for the placing of a plaque to mark the maple tree that was dedicated as a memorial to the World War veterans of the Normal. This tree was planted and formally dedicated in 1919 but never had a marker. ;Miss iMable^::^-Ji^^%siev^cL grade tekcher;-';radijsuc'ci^r,,te: SAiss Jessie Merchant,g(^e ;^ectiy to.

The Ellensburg team is conceded a twenty-point margin for victory. They have waded through all competition except the University, of Washington varsity and the Washington State varsity, and/'they have won most of them with ease. The Washington Freshmen forced them to do their best, but the Wildcats won by a point. H Now and theri a Goliath is floored by a David. Usually the underdog loses, regardless of popular fiction. Maybe the Vikings will rise up and floor the Wildcats. About all we can say is that no teafn is unbeatable all the time. Basketball teams have their ups and downs. The Vik-irigs 'were not at their best against the Freshmen, but the following night they were hot and took the Loggers at Tacoma with ease. Regulars Start, Regardless of the score, it will be a game worth seeing. Both teams will be tuned to a high pitch. Ellensburg will, have to be right, as they can take no chances.. The Vik-r irigs; will^be pulling; at the Jbit-for a win against the invaders. They can remember the sting of defeat and they would like nothing better than to twist the Wildcat's tail'. 'Coach Carver probably _will start his regular line-up of Thorsen and Dixon at. forwards; Abbott, center, and Sherman and Rork, guards. Skotheim is still out with the flu. In the 'prelimtaary the Jayvees play the Bellingham Athletic Club at 7:15. The big game starts at 8. The games will be played on the Whatcom floor.

They are those who have graduated and who have received diplomas from the local institution—and there we present a direct summing up of the Tuesday night's decree of the Board of Control. M e Board is making a decided effort to enforce previous legislation on the weekly student recreational hour. In doing so they have nobly attempted to correct one fault and have created another. There always have been many rules hanging above the section of the student laws headed- Rec hours, but the enforcement of said rulings has been lax—except for occasional threats—and the dances have gone on more or less trusted to luck in regard to who and who not should be admitted. Therefore, the Board of Control members are working as they should when they attempt to take away many of the dead-head laws that exist at the present. However, as things now stand, no matter how long a student attends this*'school and remains in good standing with it he is not considered an alumnus, and thereby comes under the classification of OUTSIDER at the Friday dances. , An OUTSIDER may not attend the Rec hour unless first securing a geust ticket from the Dean of Women's office, and said ticket must be vouched for by a hostess within the school. Should one arrive at the school before the office is closed, little trouble would be had in getting the permit. There are those, though, that arrive too late to get into the necessary department and are thus excluded from the gym. We now have a serious fault between previous and recent legislation on the subject. Likewise, if one has a guest arriving too late for the securing of the permit he is kept from attending, and yet the guest that comes Friday night is quite as eligible as the one arriving ahead of time. TTiis hits harder home to those who are or have attended the school and yet haven't taken away the cherished buckskin to hang on the mantle. The minority of those in attendance each year graduate from the teacher's course. The school caters to a policy of having SPECIAL students enrolled. It was recently made public at Olympia that the President of the school suggests a limit of three hundred graduafes from the teacher's courses each year. YET WE LEGISLATE IN SUCH A WAY THAT UNLESS THEY ARE ABLE TO MAKE PREVIOUS ARRANGEMENTS, OR ARE ADMITTED ON THEIR RECOGNITION, SPECIALS ARE NOT TO BE ADMITTED TO STUDENT REC HOURS. Oh the other side of it the Board was faced with a problem hard to solve to the best of all advantages. There is the necessity of keeping out undesirables, those who left the school by request, the fact that it is hard to get students to give up personal pleasure to stanch at the enrance and check on hose coming in, little money to hire a doorman, and etc. Yet to get away from one problem, we repeat, they have chosen a larger one. As to a relief measure for the situation, it will take time to work one out that will satisfy all angles, but it should be one that would check at the door, and let in the late arrivals. This applies in particular to the evening dances. If necessary to hire a doorman for a small hourly fee, it would be minor alongside of that spent for music,land the fact that DESIRABLES are being excluded. Then let them work out a system of indexed former Normal "blacksheep". BUT NOT TO EXCLUDE TRUE NOR-MALITES FOR THE SAKE OF A FEW UNWORTHY ONES. GOLD MINE •; Wedhesday night's game would have been a gold mine for the critic ,ofvcpliege spirit who: jumps on the cheer section that works hard when the team isahead, and not when they are getting the worst of the score* ^Likewisej"suggestions turn us to" model editorial 119A, which reads, $Dbni -pfe; poor sports and .boo gt; the referee." ;Weli; wei guess ; the blbomin' groundhog saw his\ bloorhuV shadow all right, providin' he was interested enough to turn around and look for it.

That's the impres- ' sioh a bystander gets around the athletic field seeing. the track enthusiasts clad in sweat suits doing their four or five laps on the quarter mile track every day. That's what we like to see; the fellows getting into tip-top condition early. More power to them. Instead of "Oh^ Skin-iiae, you goin' swimmin'?" It's "Oh, Bachael (or some other name of your own choice), have you got a tennis rac- „qnet?'.'_ The weather has been-fine and the tennis bugs (bugs, coming from the word "golf bug") are sure taking advantage of it. If you don't believe me, just try and get a court some nice afternoon. What's that? ' Oh, yes, 1—1—7. No, that's not right. Number, please. 1—1—8. That's just what I thought.

Mount Vernon brought up a scrappy team and it looked like they had the game; in their hands all of the way.

Cheney Normal Savages. After the teams had passed the ball around for a few seconds, John Dixon, forward, ran under his own basket and tossed in the first score for the evening. From then on the game was filled with one thrill and another. At half time the Cheney players were leading with a score of 16-1. During the first half the prospects for a local victory did not look very promising, as Cheney had the ball the majority of the time and the Vikings could not get through the Cheney defense to take their short ^shots. Cheney used the W. S.-C. offense and defense, but Coach Carver, Viking mentor, could not be caught twice with the same trap and had his cagers coached to meet the Easterner's style of play. Just as soon as the Vikings realized that all the Savages had was their famed W. S. C. style of play and when they found that they could stand up1 against it and not get snowed under they took new heart and in the second half completely out-fought, outpassed, and outshot the invaders. As the home team came out of their dressing room they semed to get the enthusiasm of the crowd, and when the referee blew his whistle to start the second half, Abbott, t he Viking center, got the tip-off and it went to Dixon. The Bellingham players passed the ball around for a minute and then Rork, the "old faithful" of the Viking squad, dribbled under the basket for the first score in the second half. After •Rork's score things did not go so good for the home team. The Savages began to feel worried about the game and staged a last half rally that almost proved fatal for the Vikings. The Savages r an their lead up to 10 points, and it looked as though Coach "Sam Carver's proteges were going to go off the floor at the end of the game with the short end of the score but t he Vikings got over their slump before it got any headway and when they got over it they went to the other extreme in a big way and piled up 16 points to the Savage's 4 in the last 7 minutes to play. The Vikings played the best game that they have played before local fans for a long time and if-, they . play as good against Ellensburg as they did against Cheney they will give Ellensburg a good run for their money. Wednesday's game was t h e first time this year that the Bellingham students have seen Johnny Dixon in action and he surely fulfilled the strongest expectations of the fans and students. Dixon hurt his knee in the first few seconds of play and it looked as though he would have to spend the evening on the bench but by grinning and bearing, was able to continue the game. Sherman played one of the best games of his career and deserves a great deal of credit in keeping the Savage forwards from getting under their own basket. Abbott had less, chance to shine as he was playing against Davis, one of the best centers in the conference, although Abbott did not play a brilliant game, he was one of t h e men on the floor, and it was due, a great deal, to Abbott's and Thorsen's checking and flborwork that made the Savages nervous and just as soon as they got.nervous they began to blow up like a balloon. One of the last men that we shall mention is none other than the star of the \ evening, Jimmy,' Rork.

Frosh gave the Vikings a sound beating by t h e score of 69 to 16, last Friday at 4 o'clock in the university pavilion at Seattle. The yearlings proved everything that has been said of them during the slaughter. Possession of the ball, helps to win ball games, and that's just what the Frosh had, plus some good passing and shooting. Thorsen, veteran forward, who started the game at forward, was forced to quit because of a severe cold which kept him from getting started. Coach Carver gave his reserves a chance to show their stuff in the game. The first half ended with the Vikings trailing the Frosh 28 to 5. But during the second half Coach Al Schuss used: different combinations to run the score up to 69 points. In all, four complete teams were used by Coach Schuss.

BRAGI DROP GAME LOSE TO THESPIANS, 38-32, HARD-FOUGHT CONTEST. IN Continuing their drive for the second half pennant, the Thespians dropped the Vanadis Bragi 38-32 last Tuesday in t he little gym. The Thespians played the first period as though their lives depended on victory and piled up a 25-7 lead. During the second stanza the Bragis outscored the winners by two points but were unable to prove themselves a dangerous threat. The winners played a great game.

WASHINGTON Friday, January 29, 1937 Live And earn -By Don Gooding— Rowing Coach Talks On Trip Across Ocean Al Ulbrickson Speaks of Crew's Trip to German Olympics For Contests OUR man of the year. Two takes one that most of you are unaware of the fact that Normal's genial gardener, George pack, was once landscaper for Eastman Kodak (catch it?) Company's land in Rochester, New York, and that for aight years held the position of City Superintendent of Parks in El mira, New York. Well, he was-and dkL Besides that, he was head-landscaper for a 1400 acre nursery (Brown Bros., Rochester) over a period of fourteen years, and commanded a salary of $50,000 from work done in Terre Haute, Indiana, Since he graduated from Cornell university subsequent to studying the art of landscaping there, Dack has been kept busy on one large gardening contract after another. 0 * * * * Eleven years ago Dack journeyed from Beaver Falls, Pennsylvania, to Seattle, where he did considerable work in the Laurelhurst district At that time Dack, who is a competent tree-sargeon, was called to Normal when some tree-moving work become a little too complicated for one ^nm to handle. He moved over 100 trees, some three feet in diameter, with only one loss. Incidentally, Back is one of the few people who ean find a Christmas tree without getting battered and bruised, scathed and scratched from the turmoils •f the chase. The landscaping around the Library and Edens hall are both samples of his talent. Dack's next big job will be the construction of the new football field over by the p. E. building. As a durable, cleat-proof gridiron is one of the hardest lawns there, is to make, this :will provide ample proof of his real ability. » » * * * Here's a tale of two prisoners, one condemned to hang, another on trial for robbery. The first, a Sikh jrticeman of Britain's India, walked g p o i i Bcaffold, prepared to die. When the trap was sprung, the doomed man plunged downward, then WAS brought up with a jerk. to the examiner's great astonishment, the hanged man was still alive several minutes later... And he was still alive the next day, although the strain had stretched his neck a good two inches. Because of his miraculous escape,, the Sikh will langnfeb in a British prison until, —Death tries again. a * * * * The other story concerns the supposed sympathetic nature of women jurors. In this case the accused, who was acting as his own representative in court, put on a masterful bit of emoting that left him and half the spectators in tears. The jury, however, failed to listen accurately and returned a verdict of guilty after only thirty minutes of consultaton. The courtroom dramatist Was plainly surprised at the decision but gave a mournful grin and looked disconsolately at a large pool of tears on the table beside him. The dogmatic man of the world who said never to trust a woman, must have participated at some sim-ilar scene. » * * * * The recipient of the 1936 Nobel Peace prize yet unable to collect a cent' of it, is Carl Ossietsky, past resident in one of Germany's well known concentration camps. Furthermore, there is a law existent in that country permitting the seques tration of any German specie held in a foreign nation, that jeopard izes any chance he might have to gain the $37,000 prize money. Friends of the lone pacifist are fearing that soon Nazi leaders will charge him. board at the rate of $1.20 per day for his three; year, nine month imprisonment. lt; This would amount to about $1,659. Imagine such a person living in a state that holds the militaristic precepts that Germany does! • » . * * ' * * • 1m New York, energetic depart* Men* stores with a decided eye for baashtes* are now offering for sale handkerebJefs bearing any desired Social Security number.

Money for Trip Obtained Men Are Better Americans After Visiting Europeans "Late as it is in the year for rowing," said Al Ulbrickson, head coach of the University of Washington's crews, at the Chamber of Commerce meeting Wednesday noon in the Bellingham hotel, "it is really the beginning of the season for us.* Introduced by Chamber of Commerce President Gerald M. Gannon, Ulbrickson went on to say that after winning all three races at Pough-keepsie the men began to realize that they really had a good crew. "In the varsity race," continued Ulbrickson, "I thought we were going to place third instead of in the lead because at the mile and a half marker we were five lengths behind. A few minutes before the finish we made up the distance and came, in first." Money Easily Forthcoming "With the people of Washington furnishing the necessary $35,000 as quick as they were asked, we were soon on our way to the Olympic games in Berlin; After crossing the ocean our boat docked in Hamburg and from there all American athletes were taken to Berlin in Germany's streamlined train, the Flying Hamburg. "During our stay in Germany, though their best food was furnished us, it did not compare in the least with the food in our own country," he went on to say. "Getting fresh vegetables and trying to get water without a sulphur taste were our chief worries." America Best "The big thing the crew got out of the trip," he stated', "was how much better living conditions are at home than in Europe." In conclusion he said, "our country, at its worst, would be Utopia in any of those other countries, and after seeing that side of Europe our athletes are now 100 per cent better Americans." Theatre Rates High Council Urges Players Aid Campus Theaters The WPA Federal Theater project was commended by the National Student federation of America in a resolution passed by the student Commission on Drama at its 12th annual congress recently held in New York, according to a statement released on January 12. "The Commission recommends," the resolution reads, "that colleges aid in bringing the WPA Federal theater plays to the campus theater; this student organization urges that the WPA Federal theater continue its present consideration of scripts and productions by college playwrights; also that they commend the WPA General theater for its play service to the college theaters. The Commission suggests that wide use be made of this script service. T obacco Ads Voted By ASB; 255-157 Cigarette advertising in the Viking was approved by the student body according to the election returns. There were 255 votes cast in favor of the issue and 157 aganst it. Last week, President Fisher gave his permission for Hie advertising initiative to appear in the school election ballot, to determine the opinion of the students. However, he did not admit that the student vote would have any influence on his opinion. •'•-.-... When President Fisher received the results of the election, his position on the question remained the same, although he has considered presenting the question to the board of trustees. The Board of Control has refused to make any move concerning the initiative. They will leave the decision entirely up to the president, and board of trustees. Coach Ulbrickson Recommends Crew Racing for Vikings; Fisher Secures Aid of Oberleitner, Ex U of W Man An important visitor to Bellhgham this week was Al Ulbrickson, coach of the rowing crews of the University of Washington. Coach Ulbrickson was guest speaker at a luncheon held under the auspices of the Chamber of Commerce at the Bellingham Hotel on Wednesday, January 27. He told the story of the victories of the Washington crew in 1936 at Pough-keepsie, Lake Carnegie, and the Olympic races in Berlin, Germany. The story he told was most fascinating and interesting. President Fisher, who has been waiting to see Coach Ulbrickson for some time, took advantage of this opportunity for an interview. Coach Ulbrickson said he would be glad to donate one or two used shells to our school for use on Lake Whatcom just as soon as they are available. He said he had no shells at this time to give away, but that he may have one or-two at the end of the year. He is very anxious that our school participate in rowing and furnish some competition for their crews, such as the University Frosh; the 150-lb. crew, and a crew from the University of British Columbia. With the support and encouragement that we can get from the University of Washington we ought to be able to start rowing in the next school year. Coach Ulbrickson said that we ought to be able to get some help from Carl Oberleitner who lives in Bellingham and who had four years of rowing at the University of Washington. Carl Oberleitner rowed with the University of Washington crew at Poughkeepsie in 1933. President Fisher has made contact with Carl Oberleitner, who says he would be willing to give our boys all the help he can, and he is enthusiastic about the prospects of using Lake Whatcom for rowing. Vienna Choir Interview Shows Traveling Habits By Mary Johnston "We always start the program with the national anthem of the country we are in," said Victor Gomboz, director of the Wienna Saengerkna-ben," better known as the Vienna Boys' Choir in an interview Wednesday night. The boys speak very little English— some learned it on the boat and in the United States, and some in Vienna. "We have families back in Vienna; I have a little sister there," said Norbert Hochnayr, the little man who played the part of Marie Louise, or the "Blue Madam," as he called it.— The boys are brought up in the Catholic faith. They play on the average of three or four nights a week. When they stop over in towns they play games in. the gyms and swimjn the YMCA pools. "They are often invited to play basketball and all the boys are good swimmers," Gomboz said. The two nurses with the choir spoke practically no English. Sometimes the boys, whose ages range from ten to thirteen years, take short naps on mattresses on the racks in the bus. They like to travel and regret the time when they will go back to Vienna for school, and to make way for another group next year. Winter Quarter Fee Apportioned Men's Athletics Take Large Part Of Money; Erickson Orders Scholarship Pins Apportionment of the student activity fees for winter quarter was under the consideration of the Board of Control at its last meeting, Wednesday, January 27. After due consideration they gave $2.50 of the $5.50 fee to men's athletics; women's athletics, 50c; drama, 25c; Northwest Viking, $1.10; band, 30c; and social fund, 85c. Anna Padden, rec hour chairman, stated that ASB tickets only would admit persons to rec hours. Receipts which have previously admitted are now obsolete. Miss Erickson was given permis-son to order the scholarship society pins. • o Patterson, Oklahoma Dean, Visits Prexy A visitor on the campus on Thursday of this weeic was Dean Herbert Patterson of the School of Education of the A. and M.

Art Editor Gus Gissberg ...Advertising Manager Here's a Thought During three and four years of college students come in contact with several different types of professors. First of all there are those invaluable few who stimulate and demand thought from their classes. They demand thought not by compulsion but interest. Falling in the great middle class are those pedagogues who give nothing but facts. Average results are obtained from average efforts. The third class deserves no attention. They are the worthless few who give nothing that could not be learned from the text. The first group will provide the intellectual stimulation so badly needed in today's world. They will build the thinkers qualified to lead this world from its present economic, political and social stagnation. From me second variety of professors will come the mediocre workers, gaining their living from the formulas, theories and facts given them in class work. It is fortunate that the third group is small. They are worthless from every detail. Since the American education plan seems to concentrate on the mass-education- factory philosophy, the first group can train the few, the second class can train the many, but the third class should be relegated, to digging ditches or firing boilers. We are a teachers' college. The time to decide in which class we will fall is before we teach. Presidetif^B The above editorial was written in bed while the editor had a temperature of 101 degrees. Perhaps, as you are thinking, that explains it. Have decided to forget the request of the Literary Digest, partment can still remember Landon. This de- Campi Coast to Coast In the future, students at Cornell university will have an opportunity to air their pet grievances against student administration in a good Will court which is to be established on the campus. By this means it is hoped that the general tone of class elections will be- improved. * * * * * According to the Armour Tech News, "Fifty per cent of the modern girls smoke." "The other 50 per cent aren't so cold, either," comments the Detroit Technonian. The first night club on a college campus is at the University of Iowa. Authorities reason-ad it would be much safer to have one on their own campus. * * * * * One of the charges brought against Glenn Frank, deposed University of Wisconsin president, was that he spent too much money for house paint and lace curtains. One of the charges brought against Harry Woodburn Chase, last president of the University of Illinois, was that the brass ash trays in the presidential mansion cost too much. If college presidents in these United States wish to hold their jobs, they should paint their houses only once in jben years, dispense with lace certains, and install good, old-fashioned "gabboons." Even Al Capone was sent to Alcatraz for spitting on the sidewalk. ——o IN THE MOOD OF JIMMY LOVALL To all points of the compass goes the can to ao your pare to help in the fight against the affliction that has maimed the first man of our country. Best of all it is a very pleasant way to add a little for such a worthy cause. Remember Saturday night, January 30.

The students, the seekers, Know that ten years, twenty years the long view, When the dewey smiles and slim-flat buttocks Have felt the cut of silence, no and night, The statistics, the charts, the logical laws, The bitter ironic disappearing frustrations Will have reddened the dawn of tomorrow. During the past several quarters of my attendance at this college have been surprised at the almost total lack of discussion along such lines as social philosophy and religion. I have interviewed dozens of students in trying to find the reason. The answer I have received has very often been given that they have views on these subjects but do not dare to air these views about the college because they have heard that those who have too progressive or radical views on this and related subjects are penalized for it in the training school. I have even been told by a member of the faculty that he has progressive views but is afraid to air them. Now, I beg the question, "Does this condition exist?" I have not the direct evidence that it does. All I have is hearsay. But the point is that as long as these things are being said the training school in particular and the whole college in general, is getting a black eye. I recommend a poll of the entire faculty on the. question of whether he penalizes or favors any student for his beliefs in such controversial issues as social philosophy and religion. I further recommend that any member of the faculty who answers this question in the affirma- Point of View Eight years ago your college student was a type character. He was supposed to be a bundle of springs and jargon who didn't give a darn what happened so long as he was having a good time. Accordingly, every adolescent in the country, and not a few who should have been well past that stage, tried to act "collegiate," to "go hang", "take a blimp to the brawl", "tra-ra-bom-de- a", and "paint the town red" in a flivver. What has become of him? Has he stagnated? The basic cause can be traced to the psychological effect of a long-enduring depression upon the average college student. The monthly allowance is now the exception rather than the rule, leaving the student to sink or swim. In 1929 he was learning a vocation. In 1937 he is finding his way to a new and a better philosophy of life. He looks about among his elders and sees tense, harassed faces. He tries to get a job for the summer ---------- Northwest Viking - 1937 January 29 - Page 3 ---------- Friday.

By Mitchell Erich Blond and. shapely Goeta Ljunberg, Metropolitan opera star, whose captivating, soprano voice held seven hundred students spellbound in assembly last Tuesday, thinks Northwest Washington is marvelous because it reminds her of her birthplace, Sundsval, Sweden. Although both her parents were accomplished amateur musicians, Mme. Ljunberg, strangely enough, was the only one of eight children that showed tendencies towards a singing voice. At the age of eight she fulfilled a request to sing before the queen of Sweden. At 16 she entered opera school in Stockholm and in 1932 she was persuaded to leave the old country to become a member of the Metropolitan opera, New York. From then on her fame skyrocketed; newspapers all over the country acclaimed her as America's greatest female soprano. Since then she has appeared in opera in Berlin, London, Stockholm, and in singing houses all over Europe.

BELLINGHAM^WASHINGTO Friday, January 29; 1937: Soukie Says— Last Monday night a young Canadian from the University of British Columbia carefully carved on the lower rung of the Tri-Normal conference ladder the name Vikings. Many fans were disappointed in the members of the old ladies' home representing the Normal, but were quite well pleased with Bon Matthison, the young Britisher who furnished the opposition. It was quite evident that Matthison's handsome face and. speedy legs were too much for the elderly ladies. We don't want to get in the habit of making alibis, but we will admit the Vikings had just completed a hard road trip and were not up to par, yet if we are to give credit where credit is deserved, then UBC deserved to win last Monday night. A New League? A new basketball and football league U on the horizon! To Pacific Lutheran goes the credit for the formation of a plan that has all the earmarks of success. The league would consist of Linfield, Pacific Lutheran, Oregon Normal, Belling-ham, Ellensburg, Cheney, St. Martins, and Southern Oregon Normal. All of these teams outside of the two Washington Normals and Linfield are usually on the Viking schedule, anyway, but have no particular significance, as they are not league games. Objections were raised to Cheney and Southern Normal being too far away and would incur high traveling expenses. Arrangements are being made so that these two schools could play on a restricted schedule. , Lets look forward to a new league and au revoir to the Tri-Normal conference. Fabio Looks Back Fabio Cappa, of the Ellensburg Crier, has kindly compiled some statistics that will be very interesting to yon fans. Ellensburg has won seven hoop championships in the last ten years and tied twice for the title. Who won the other time? It wasn't the Vikings. . . Bellingham hasn't won a conference since 1932. . . . there's one for you, boys, do something about it! . . . Cheney hung up » very impressive looking scalp last week when they defeated the Wildcats 37-25 . . . Ellensburg lost both Boersma and Bunstine, mainstays of the Wildcat squad, via the foul route. . . Sam Carver lets us in on the secret that no cup or pennant is offered for either basketball or football championships. . . Like all other sports writers, I feel sorry for Bob Pastor when he steps in the ring with Joe Louis tonight . . . and that's thirty for the week, with sincerest apologies to the humming bird.

"Team play on the part of Bellingham," said Coach Chuck Lappen-busch, "was perhaps the poorest I have seen all season. In fact during the first half," he continued, "we looked like an old has-been group of players substituting individual leadership for performance." Going into the second half the Vikings ran in eight points before their opponents managed to garner two and from this point on the lead was first one way and then the other. The game ended with Bellingham making the final basket to lead 54 to 53. As they were hurrying back to what they thought was the last tipoff they found that the crowd's enthusiasm had overshadowed the timekeeper's horn and that the game had really Tieen over before the basket was made. In the Oregon Normal game at Monmouth last Thursday, the Vikings, playing superior ball had little trouble in winning, 47 to 33. Ted Dziedzic was exceptional, both on defense and offense. Nelson and Carver were strong on the offensive, while Johnny Pox turned up his best game of the season. Last Friday's bill with Albany college was a puzzle up to half time for Bellingham, the bell finding them trailing 18 to 16, due principally to Albany's zone defense. During the half Lappenbusch was able to straighten them out and they came back to sink 34 points, making the final score 50 to 33. Every man played in all three games with the exception of Bud VanderGriend who, because of influenza, was placed in Monmouth Normal's infirmary on the morning of the opening game. o Mareview Hall Defeats Edwards in Big Upset Mareview hall, the team which has held down the cellar position in the B league for two quarters, finally broke the ice last Tuesday in a win ,against the Edwards hall quintet. Sher Edwards took individual scoring honors for Edwards with 11 counters, while Phil Kidder, a sub, lead the Merrymaids with eight points. Edwards lead at the half by one point but Sher Edwards, the one man team was able -to make only two points to the opposition's six in the last half. The game ended up with the fairly close score of 20 to 17. The league leading Prosh again maintained their postion by a win over the outclassed Vikings. The Co-op took the erstwhile mighty- Midgets to town in a thrilling battle. The Midgets were slow in starting and made only four points in the first half but raUied to almost catch up with the storekeepers.

Viking Still In Oregon Playing his fourth year of varsity ball, Marius (Bud) VanderGriend, 165-pound forward, is Lynden's contribution to Coach Charles P. Lappen-busch's 1936-37 basketball machine. VanderGriend, one of the many of that name in the Dutch community, played four years of high school ball before coming to Western Washington College of Education. Though in excellent condition at the first of the season, his vitality has been low this last quarter. So when influenza broke out he was susceptible. He entered the Monmouth Normal infirmary the day after he left with the squad for Oregon and has been there the past week. "It is questionable," said Coach Lappenbusch, "whether he will be ready for the Cheney game on the fifth of February. Indications at the season's beginning," continued Lappenbusch, "were that Bud would have his best season this year, but this sickness has him at a decided disadvantage." / 9 O VanderGriend's favorite weapon and one at which he is particularly good is a one hand push shot coming in from the sidelines. VanderGriend plays third base on the baseball team and was most popular man on the campus in 1935. The ultimate end of his studies is junior high school coaching. o With The WAA By Betty Howell "Here's chlorine in your eye!" shrilled the blond bathing beauty in a tight blue one-piece swimming suit, as she kicked a spray of green mist into her neighbor's face. There must have been sixty plunging paddlers in the pool and every one of them was splashing and diving in a most energetic way. It was the 3 o'clock class period of intermediate swimmers and there Was the usual amount of noise—laughter, yelling, and chatter. The result Was a mixture of loud and resounding echoes which entirely filled, the huge room and seemed to penetrate the air so there was almost none left for breathing. The heady feeling was undoubtedly caused by the height of the balcony from which spectators were watching. From there, the pool was unreal and the distance unmeasurable to the eye. Instructions, directions, suggestions were called by the advisor to her flock of half-trained goslings, who, by the way, were learning one of the oldest ugiy duckling tricks, surface diving. Climaxing the period, the instructor mounted the silverish pool ladder rails and from the proper horizontal position explained and demonstrated with arm movements and all, the correct form for duck diving. That the girls really enjoy the pool was also shown by the marked interest in the swimming club. Badmintons four-division turnout is batting along at a high rate. The four groups speak for themselves in the way of numbers, so now they're brushing up on the technique of the game. It seems as if the girls are going into their dance but it's really the practice of the use of the fore and back-hand strokes. It's something like this: step, one, two—swat! They're working for correct form and more correct forms, if that's understood. Lob is another fundamental that is being practiced, but everyone's still a beginner. Maybe some other time it'll all be explained, that is if everyone isn't reduced to shadows and removed by the stretcher to benches, when this progressive elimination tournament begins. There's one almost under foot now. Hey, Fellers! Swing It At the Yankee Ballroom TONIGHT! NORMAL NIGHT Special 22c, Incl.

Crowds Away ERRORS TO BE WATCHED IN £ TRY TO STOP GIFT RUNS. Playing the University of Washington Frosh baseball nine for the second time in the past week, the Vikings will attempt to avenge the recent defeat handed them by the Frosh this afternoon at 3 o'clock on Waldo field. : Having defeated the local nine last Friday, 11-6, and'backed by a fine season's record, the Frosh will be slight favorites, but "Pop" Gunn has had his men working hard for the past week and will give the Husky pups a real tussle. -The Frosh nine has one of the finest pitching staffs it has had for several years. Al O'Brien, big gun for the visitors, will probably start the day for his team. Heavy hitting coupled with fine backing last week gavei "O'Brien a c^mparjat^ely easy, time with the Vikings. Early this week Lee, another Frosh twirler, pitched a no-hit, no-run game against Bremerton, so the Frosh are very strong in that department. Iverson, Viking hurler, had difficulty in finding the plate against. the Frosh and did not finish the game. Blanton finished the game for the Bellingham team. Against C. P. S. Iverson showed remarkable control and should be on for this game. Blanton, Leatha and Moul-tray are in reserve. ,*. The exact starting line-up for the Vikings will not be known until this afternoon, but probably Iverson and McCleery, batteries; Thorsen, first; Campbell, second; Abbott, short; Comfort, third; and Dixon, Wooten, and McCleery in the field will start for the Vikings. BUTLER WINS TROPHY EXTEMP CUP PRESENTED 'IN ASSEMBLY BY 1930 WINNER. HARRIED MEWS tfAWKS ALLOWED SHORT REST TO PURSUE PLEASURE Contrary to the belief of the public, the life of a reporter is not all play and it is only once or twice in the course of events that a hard working journalist is allowed to indulge in idle pursuits. One of these infrequent interludes came Friday evening at the dinner party given by i Helen Foster for the members of the Viking staff. Turning out "en masse", the journalists enjoyed bridge, dancing, croquet. Those who attended were: Bruce Kibble, Gordon Nichols, Mr. James Carrell, Lucile Jordan, Gerda Jensen, Jack Gudmundson, Harriet Sather, Aileen Hurlbert, Jim Rork, Evelyn Altman, Jimmy Stoddard, Evelyn Elliott, Dale Thompson, John Gable, - Roger Chapman, Mr. and Mrs. J.

James Butler was awarded first place in the extemporaneous speaking contest, held in regular assembly last Friday morning, thus winning the silver loving cup, of which he becomes the custodian for a year. Bessie Taylor proved such a close second that the two tied for first place in the point score. However, Butler had the greater number of first places. Quick Presents VQuentin Quick, who won the cup last spring, was chairman of the contest and presented the trophy to '6utleri whpspoke on "Colored Sktas and Viewpoints". Bessie Taylor's topic was "Educational Experiments".

A. | Judge* U With two members, Herbert Ruck-mick and John Rajala, absent, the Board of Control had another busy session Wednesday afternoon. The first thing to come before -them': was a report engineered by Sivert Skotheim concerning the revision of the athletic manager award qualifications. He met with Sam Carver, head coach, and John Dixon, president of the "W" club. The report that was drawn up was accepted by the Board, as submitted. Three Year Basis In brief, this change in the manager awards bases everything on the three year curriculum. The first year managers will merely try out, and the amount of time served will not be limited. In the junior year there will be two managers, who must serve at least four quarters before getting the "Junior Managers' sweater." One of these will then be selected for senior manager, and will be given a senior manager sweater, with a minimum of seven quarters required. Four of these will be served in the junior capacity. Dance Saturday The Board is co-operating with the "W" Club in providing the entertainment given by the Normal school toward the visiting athletes in the Northwest District High School track and field meet.

SPECIAL REC HOUR IS SET FOR TOMORROW " Contrary to the announcement in last week's paper, there will be no Rec hour this afternoon on account of the all-school picnic at Lake Sam-ish. There will be a special Rec hour tomorrow afternoon in the big gym at approximately 4 o'clock, with the visiting high school athletes as guests of honor. CO-OPERATION MAKES CAMPUS DAY SUCCESS WORK,; MUSIC, DANCING, AND PLAY KEYNOTE DAY'S WORK. A perfect day, peppy music, and an assembly full of eager Normalites heralded in Campus Day for this year: Promptly at 8:30 the students gathered in the auditorium prepared to do anything that looked like work. Everyone, including members of the faculty, was dressed in the most fitting attire for the day's work. It is no use writing a column on the good work that was accomplished by the school, for every able bodied person knows exactly what he or she did. It is sufficient to say that Sehome Hill and all the surrounding hills were stripped of all the unsightly underbrush, papers, dirt, etc., that the working section could pick up. In the afternoon the games were enjoyed by all those that participated. The water fight will be remembered by many for a long time to come? Mel Eagen and his committee handled the situation with such dexterity that no confusion resulted. The dance, given in the dining hall of Edens Hall brought forth a lot of talent and was greatly enjoyed by the members of the faculty and| ithe students. The decorations ^were unique.

MEN'S SHOW SUCCESSFUL We are pleased with the show the Mens club put on Monday night, and pleased with the strong support that they received from the school.. : • ITie. real credit does not lie with the Men's club as a whole, but with certain individuals who went the limit in bringing something of interest to the audience. There were several that incurred much of the responsibility in ordering furnishings when the funds were not available. These same people spared no effort in helping to put over the Vodvil. It is too bad that conditions are such that the Men must pay this debt with their own resources, but as long as things exist that way, we want to thank the school for the support that they lended. •;' gt;' . : ' ' - — ' •—-J -—° : An Olympia ruling places frogs of the state under the classification of fur bearing animals.

CAMPUS DAY PRAISE Qiir hats are also off to the leaders of the Campus day activities. They handled die big project in a noble manner. They in turn have sincerely expressed their gratitude for the constructive attitude of the students and faculty through the hours of work and play The leaders changed one Campus day feature for the better—the location for the big dance Many stated, following the evening, that the whole atmosphere was preferable to the classics held in the barn-like Armory We, personally, think that the "closer-to-home" surroundings was a big improvement. Workmen are in the act of tarring the roof of the Waldo field grandstand. ; Which should be a sign of certainty that we will not witness athletic contests on the new field this fall, but we have the consoling fact that we canv.sit.down to "dry" observation of the touchdowns scored.

INCREASE ELEGTIVES NEW CURRICULA DIVERSIFIED TO ALLOW GREATER CHOICE. The new curriculum will give a greater choice in the elective courses,, allowing students who intend to go on to universities an opportunity to work out the majors and i minors that will count toward their degrees. Those who do not plan to earn a degree at some other institution may:take ^courses that are offered in the curricula other than the one in which they, are enrolled, i By this method it will be possible to receive specific preparation for teaching six grades instead of the present system of preparation just for three. New Health Course Health education is being emphasized in the new. curricula. , Nutrition, hygiene, • and a new course, Which will deal with material to be used in the elementary health program will be included under health education. .The present course in hygiene will be lengthened, f Simple :*courses in how to listen to music and what to look for in iptrt; will be offered. ; These courses axe not, highly technical but are planned to give entering freshmen an insight into,, t h e . principle of •''arfci;-^,',;!/^',:^' _; ,y:- ;'•;.., - . .^ivOa'-Newj-CiUTiculum'!::/:' -'..: ;;The:x grammar grade curriculum has ; been, replaced by the new curriculum, known as Junior high school^^ cutoculiutt; This will include grades seveh; eight and nine; • rji^^rrural eurriculum is not reef ognized:by the h ^ curricula^ Praic-tice teaching for rural teachers will c p ^ i j ^ v^eiAltfi^^ rural ^ii1«!ctoBr ;^ technique courses, primary,; intermediate or Junior high school.,, Small credit classes lt; have i been eliminated to some extent: Wherever possible, two. quarters of five hour work will take the place of the present three, quarter three hour courses. ; The new curricula will go into effect at the beginning of the fall quarter, 1931. . - . J—s o •— Normalites Star In Guild Performance With six Normal students and faculty participating, the Bellingham Theatre Guild presented its final production, "The Family Upstairs!' in the auditorium Thursday evening. From the moment the , curtain rose on the first act of Harry Delf's charming comedy, the audience was enchanted with the naive play of young love, hampered by encumbering parental kindly interference. Aileen Hurlbert, who is well known to.Normal students, was the charming young heroine, and Robert Wiedman, popular student, was the rather overwhelmed young lover whose course of true love did not run as smoothly as it might have. Miss Margery Horton was the ambitious and ,kindly interfering mother of the heroine who played her role cleverly. Other Normalites who interpreted their roles artistically ,. were Katherine Mounter, the proverbial younger sister; Miss La Verne Farlow, mother of the hero; and Doris Philippi, the neighborhood dressmaker. .-"V ;';•';,,,.:'.!.. / o . , ; ; .

Fund Allotments The question of distribution of athletic allotments between the wOr men's and the men's division was brought up when it was learned that entrants in a Seattle swimming meet for women were forced to pay expenses personally.

This accomplishment is the result of studies connected with household arts which the girls have recenth^been making. ,,^' gt;:iTest, SIsill Their skill in this line was proven the Friday-preceding Valentine's day when they prepared three different tables for luncheon, using the Valentine theniei throughout the decorations arid^food. The young dietitians were divided into three groups each group being given 10 cents to cover the expense of decorations used to prepare artistic and attractive luncheon tables. The results were colorful and pleasing 'ta gt; even^the most critical eye. One group spent its coin on flowers, one invested its in red hearts andv crepe paper, and the remaining girls bought place cards with the amount allowed them. ;;.•":• Make Molds Daintily molded salads and desserts, and sandwiches temptingly garnished, served as edibles at the respective, luncheons. Although special emphasis has been placed on the making of food attractive, the girls have alsor concentrated on the various luncheon dishes which are best for good health. i Profitable discussions have been held in the boys' classes, as well as the girls', in determining how to order a lunch rich in health building vitamins with a small sum of money. These discussions are proving of practical value to the students in choosing their cafeteria lunches. o Dean Bever Veteran Instructor In Social Science Department With his chief interest in history, but a major job of arranging and organizing the curriculum and untangling student problems, Mr. James (.Sever* holds -down the position of deah of the school. " Coming here in 1909 from Yakima, where he was principal of the high school, Mr. Bever became head of the Social Science department. In 1924 he was made dean. Most- of the time he has taught history and sociology but for a time had a class in the study of the state manuaParifr the history of education. For 15 years he was adviser of the Sophomore class. He is now chairman of the faculty scholarship committee. Mr. Beyer is a graduate of Drake University, receiving both his bachelor and masters degree from that institution. Since then he has studied two quarters at the University of Chicago and done other work at the University of Washington and the University of California. Northwest history is his chief hobby and he has done some research work on this subject. Mr. Bever has an interest in school athletics and he has coached football and other sports in high schools. In Normal he may be distinguished as that large, good natured looking gentleman to whom By HELEN FOSTER THE BIG EVENT! Once a quarter every woman has a chance to dress xip in her very best and go to the Informal, and to make the most of this chance, every woman will want to look the very nicest she possibly can. There are so many lovely styles in evening frocks that it is hard to pick the one which is most becoming to one's special type and temperament. But shopping around a bit will probably uncover just the dress you have pictured to make you look exactly like Cinderella. THE CRISP CHARM or organdy lends itself admirably to the styles of this season. Frosty embroidery and eyelet design are very popular and charming when made in full skirted models with tight bodices. Tiny short jackets with puff sleeves accompany many of the dresses and velvet and satin sashes in a different color than the dress, are tied in huge bows in front, back, or side as you prefer. FOUND: a perfect tennis dress. Ifs made out of handkerchief linen, you'll just have to have at least one linen dress this summer to keep up to date, and there are a thousand things about it which will win it to your heart. Linen frocks are washable, and non-fading, and crisp, (after washing, as well as before) ... Then there are so many appropriate styles which adapt themselves admirably to sports and are also good looking when modeled in handkerchief.. linen,., that., you should be able to find one to satisfy that secret yearning. * » * THIS spring the smartly dressed world decrees "nature" in ---------- Northwest Viking - 1931 May 15 - Page 4 ---------- iSBIiiii^ Rounding off a perfect campus day, a picked team -of mtramural baseball players met; out-bit arid walked all over the Faculty team in their traditional game of the year. Pitcher Ruckmick twirled good ball bu^.apt; good enough for, the more agile and. hit-cra^y intramuralists. Mr. Fisher covered first base very well. Gunn and Upshall patrolled the pasture like veterans. We, understand that last week Willamette University defeated the College of Puget Sound 32-2 in a baseball game. We've got a hunch that the Willamette school was represented by; a track team and not a baseball nine. Ten runs were scored in one inning. Although the Washington State Frosh defeated Cheney Normal school last week in a dual track meet, the Savages proved that they have a strong contender for Tri- Normal honors. The Normal school is especially strong in the weights. i At 3 p. m. this afternoon the Viking baseball, t«am will again cross bats with? the" tJ.' of W. Frosh. The game will take place on the local field. The Frosh have previously defeated "Pop's" nine 11-7. - Continuing; the athletic part of the calendar for this week-end, the Normal school will play host to the annual Northwest high school track and field meet on Waldo field. This meet has, stimulated tremendous interest^TTdue( h,$o the remarkable marks hung up by some of the individual schools previous to this meet. More than likely some of these young tracksters will be wearing the winged W in a year or so. Tomorrow afternoon the local tennis team will match strokes with a team of racket swingers from the College of Puget Sound. This will be an excellent opportunity to see the Viking racket weilders in action. Hedger is at present leading the squad, in the ladder tournament. Last week the Belhngham team was soundly defeated by the U. of W. Fr^shqEacketeers. The Vikings failed to win a single match. Bork, local leader, was the only one to extend his opponent only to lose hi a very hard fought affair. It appears that the local team was either not in'condition or had gone stale, as they weakened very much as the games drew to a close. The(Normal teachers suffered One of the worst defeats of the 1931 season, when the University of Washington Yearlings made a clean sweep of its tennis matches at Seattle, May 9. Normal Outclassed The Frosh displayed unusual strength, in both singles and the doubles, and took all but one of their matches with ease. Jim Rork forced Hashiguchi to struggle for his victory, 8-6, 7-5. "Cliff" Hedger, Viking No. 1 man, suffered one of his worst defeats at the hands of Keeney, Frosh net artist, to the tune of 6-2, 6-2. "Judy" Berenstain lost to Witt, 6-4, 6-2, in the third singles matches and Gissberg lost to Klegg 6-1, 6-0. The doubles were a little more closely contested, but the Normal still was outclassed. Hedger and Rork were defeated by Keeney and Witt, 6-2, 6-3, while Berenstain and Gissberg lost to Klegg and Hashiguchi, 6-0, 6-1. Return Match A return match with the Frosh will be played on the local courts, May 27, and the Normalites will be given a chance for revenge for their defeat. _o :— Time Limit Set For ' Ladder Contestants Rapidly Approaching The University of Washington Frosh track officials, reporters and what-not seem to have been very mildly surprised by the performance of one Norman Bright in the art of running the mile race. For the past several days his name has appeared in the Daily as one of the first men to conquer their supposedly "wonder miler" Weber. Qualifying seven men for the district track meet, the Whatcom Redskins captured? the annual Whatcom- county meet last Saturday. Mount Baker took second honors, with Lynden, Blaine, Fair-haven and Ferndale in order. Setting a new county record of 1:34.2 in the relay the Redskins will be the favorites in that event in the big meet tomorrow. . We also saw several of the Arlington track artists on the local cinder path last Tuesday. With competition so very keen, as it always has been in the past prep meets, these lads are letting neither time nor energy stand in their way. It looks as though the University of Washington is headed for a baseball conference championship this spring. The U recently dropped Oregon U, eighteen to four, running their storing of victories to eight ' What we think would be an easy and gainful occupation for Wayne Preim: Holding down one end of a rope In a tug-of-war contest. . If ever on the face of this globe » track meet is held on a hexagon track we feel sure that the Belllng-bjra Normal couM be we TOted. M^ Bags* of GMam ^ x»ofeI»#^ w* belteve, t ^ With the same men holding first place in the ladder tournaments, and with the time limit of the tournament fast approaching, it looks as though those that are at the top now will hold their places until the end. One of the places that is going to be hotly contested is the top spot in tennis. Cliff Hedger holds it, but will have a hard time keeping Jimmy Rork from dislodging him. In horseshoes, Bob Carboneau leads, while Thorsen seems to be having an easy time with golf. Thorsen shoots a score of a little over eighty, and should be a hard man to beat. In handball Russell Nyberg tops the list, but is being closely pressed by Myron Chandler. Interest in the different ladder tournaments has been dropping off a little during the last week or so, but they have been well worth while, as both the tennis team and the golf team were picked from this ladder. The interest in the different tournaments will probably pick up after this week, as heavy activities have been stealing the show. o — NORMALITES CONQUER SOUTHERN PLAYERS After their defeat by the Frosh, the Normal racketeers worked some of their ire off on the Mount Vernon Junior college here last Wednesday afternoon, when they went to the showers with five out of six matches to their credit. In the first singles, Hedger took Finley, 9-7, 6-3. The second singles were also close, Berenstain winning from Hilderbrand to the tune of 10-8, 3-8, 6-3. In the third singles Fresk battled it out with Wyman to win 6-2, 1-6, 8-6. Irby took the fourth singles with no difficulty from Barclay, the score being 6-4, 6-1. The doubles sets displayed much beter form on both sides. Hedger and Berenstain taking the match from Wyman and Hilderbrand 6-3, 7-5. Fresk and Irby went to pieces in the second doubles, and took the only defeat of the day, the score being 1-6, 2-6. ; O — This week ends the handball tournament for girls, and next week class teams will be chosen.

What, with running around a huge hexagon stiff-legged, falling down, knocking non-participants out of, the way, enjoying human wheelbarrows, carrying blocks of wood on the head, and working up a fine sweat at the same time acquiring a marvelous sunburn we're - willing to swear by all the heavenly individuals, who were fortunate to be looking down on the affair, that this past Campus day^tra^:ine^---wiil long be rememe^^ watch^ « entered the sports. LOSE TO WASBHNGTON, AND TO ST. MARTINS, 10 11-6, •4. Foreign invasions proved disastrous to the Viking baseball team, when they dropped two games last week-end; The nine tackled the University of Washington on Friday afternoon, and lost by an 11-6 score. On the following afternoon they traveled farther south but again lost to St. Martins, this time 10-4. In both games the Vikings made four errors, against three for then-opponents. The errors on the part of the local players were quite untimely, and were decidedly expensive in allowing scores gt;to go in. Moultray Starts Moultray started on the mound for the Vikings in the Frosh game. Due to poor support around him, and two wild pitches, the Frosh scored two runs in the first inning. Blanton relieved Moultray and finished the game. Bellingham started this inning off fairly good and ended up with one run. The Normalites did not again score until the seventh inning. They had a successful one there, and brought across three runs. Dixon and Thorsen went heavy on the bat in that canto and knocked out three base hits off O'Brien, Frosh pitcher. Comfort was hit by a pitched ball and came home' on Dixon's hit. Thorsen also got in. Three Hit Thorsen, Dixon, and Blanton all hit. in the ninth inning, which netted the locals their last two runs. Dixon and Thorsen crossed the plate. Hutchinson started the Frosh in the third inning, and hit out a single. Lee was next up.and cracked a three-bagger, scoring Lee. In the fifth, sixth and seventh innings, the Frosh did the most damage, getting two, four, and two runs respectively. Eleven Hits The Frosh managed to get an equal number, of hits, compared with the runs they scored. The Vikings made nine hits, but were able to convert only 6 of them into scores. Thorsen hit the heaviest for the losers, making a triple and a double. Dixon, Blanton and J. McCleery each hit twice. Hutchinson hit three times for the Frosh, while Lee banged out two triples. St. Martins jumped into a single run lead in the first inning with Johannes being brought in by Hur-ney's single. The Vikings, after failing to take advantage of two walks in the first inning, came through with three in the second. Three On In the second a walk, a single, and another walk put Comfort, Dixon and Thorsen on bases. Iver-son was hit by a pitched ball, and Comfort came in. A walk on Campbell put Dixon in, and a fielder's choice on Abbott's bingle, let Thorsen get across. The -only other Viking run came in the eighth canto, with Comfort and Dixon each getting hits. Comfort scored. Errors Aid Errors, hits, walks, and fielder's choices, enabled the winners to bring in five runs in the third inning. They scored two in the sixth and another pair in the eighth. They made 10 runs and 10 hits, against 4 runs and 5 hits for Bellingham. Schmedelkofer, St. Martins cen-terfielder, made four singles out of five trips to the plate. Dixon continued his hitting by getting two singles -for his afternoon's allotment. Costa and Iverspn were the two rival starting tossers. Viking Golfers Lose To Whatcom Players The Whatcom Redskins' golf team took victory by the wide margin of 13% to 4% over Occie Thorsen's Viking golfers. The matches were played Tuesday afternoon, and although there has been no definite date set, there will be a return match between the two schools in the near future.

Just how much does your nose know? The air of a closed room at Colgate University was sprayed with an unknown substance... Students were permitted to sniff. This process was repeated several times. Jasmine, heliotrope, lily of the valley, and other pleasing odors were identified. I n each case only plain distilled water was used as a spray. Maybe they 'ad a cold in the 'ed. oooOooo In his last report, President James Rowland Angell, of Yale, writesS "Amid the varied currents which have been flowing through our Yale life in recent years, none is more significant than that which has brought with it the rediscovery of personality as a basic and indispensable element in education." With your permission, Dr. Miller— That sounds "human and humane." oooOooo "The undergraduates are against the House plan because the American youth is against anything that is new. He is the most intrenched of all conservatives." And we thought our colleges and universities were hot beds of Bolr-shevism and unrest. oooOooo Three weeks and June are gone —forever. In the halls, in class rooms, on the campus, and at table, We hear "I wish it were over," "I Just cant wait until . . . .".. Why this inane desire for weeks, months, years to pass? They will pass, and in passing, they will leave gray hairs, wrinkles, and — memories. Maybe we've reached the age of senility, but whether we're being bored by a dry lecture or sit silently out on Sunset watching the sun paint pictures as. it sinks behind the islands, we're jealous of each fleeting second. oooOooo FUTDLITY OF FAME! No one has claimed the body of the man whose tombstone reads: "John Gwinn, United States navy, born 1791, died at Palerno, Sicily, September, 1849, while in command of United States frigate Constitution." oooOooo Dean Marquis calls it "Friday-itis." Dr. Miller—"Week-end slump." Our roommate calls it "love,"; but Ye serious-minded colymist has no time for such things. oooOooo Have you hyperkinesia; bothered by continual and intense activity of mind and body; usually a desire to be continually going places and doing things! If so, you're a "go-ygetter," and We hope you get it. oooOooo " And we think you should read John Dewey's "Individualism—Old and New," but please don't ask for it 'till we finish our report for Dr. Miller. oooOooo We confess our tastes are ple- . beian and low. We don't even like oUves. No vain visions of the Social Register beset our dreams* We had hopes once. Our' five-quarter exposure, some years back, to ap- S preciation of the better things—even ^straight programs of "opuses"— 'was"laMng" Then came our ^M/pinter hibernations out Aohert the ^train begins, andihevein^^ PICNIC PLANNED The Board of Control adopted the summer quarter budget at its meeting Tuesday night in the Student association offices. Sivert Skotheim was unable to attend the meeting, but all the other members, including those just elected, were there. President C. H. Fisher was an additional person present, on account of the apportioning of money. Surprise Factor A surprise factor was brought up in this connection, and that is a change in the system of requisitions for all expenditures of departments supervised by the Board. This new system will necessitate the procuring of these from the business office and then having them signed by the president of the association or signed for him by the secretary of the board. President Fisher had this new method adopted so that the Board would have a better check on expenditures and would be able to keep activities closer to a budget in the end. A check will then be made periodically so that none will be drawing over the allotted amounts for the particular quarter. Official Policy It has always been official policy to try and keep the various departments strictly within their financial limits as budgeted, but from time to time they have run over. At the present, with the existing conditions as they are, it will be even more imperative that no additional funds are drawn upon. It was decided to have Rec hour l a s t . night, so that the students going out of town for the holidays would still be able to enjoy the dance. Zeke McClurken was dele- TEXTBOdKS DISPLAYED BY REPRESENTATIVE OF LYONS, CARNAHAN During the past week, Mr. W. G. Hummel, representative of Lyons Carnahan, publishers, of Chicago and New York, has displayed on the main landing the various publications of his company. Full Line Mr. Hummel stated that Lyons Carnahan publish a full line of all grade and high shool textbooks. They also issue supplementary textbooks and have a good line of supplementary reading. They have recently put out a work book on American history for the upper grades. GRADERS GIVE ACTS FOR PATRIOTIC PART EIGHTH GRADE DONATES THE MAIN PORTION OF ASSEMBLY (Continued on Page Two) o LOCAL MUSIC IN PLAY SMITH WORKING ON CHORUS FOR LOCAL PASSION DRAMA. ?§1£$|'^^^ .;;s "You expect big things of the Fassnahts of Freiburg, Germany. You were not disappointed," says the Boston Evening Amerian, referring to the Freiburg Passion Play, which will be given at the American Theater of this city, August 2, 4 and 5, under the auspices and sponsorship of the Normal school. Given Periodically In 1264 the inhabitants of Freiburg, (Baden), Germany, first presented the Passion Play, and they have given it periodically in Freiburg since that time, as well as in nearly every city in Europe. The original German company is on its first American tour featuring Adolf Fassnacht, the world's greatest Christus portrayer; and in keeping with the general policy of ob* taming the best available talent f oi its program of entertainment, the Normal authorities have secured the August booking of this famous company. •-'' Normal Music The Normal will furnish the music, both chorus and orchestral, to accompany the play. Plans were first made for holding the play out of doors. Later it was decided to hold the play at the American, theater^ toi insure that possible f a t t i e r v condttiqnsv; Would not interfere with the performance. A patriotic assembly was held by the Training school this morning. In keeping with the spirit of the occasion, patriotic songs will be sung, the first being "America, the. Beautiful." The Eighth grade is responsible for the most important part of the program which will be concerned with the feeling—past,, present, and future—of the American -people concerning the Fourth of July. Questions Asked What was the attitude of the colonists after they had set themselves free from their mother country, England? Was there bitterness toward her, mingled with their joy at being free? How has the feeling of the American people changed in regard to England? Is there any change in the spirit with which we celebrate the birth of our country? The Eighth grade will interpret the answers which they have found in their study of these questions. They have as their authorities such famous men as Theodore Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson. Two Elements In their history and social science work they have discovered that there are two elements entering into the celebration of this day. One is the. play or festive spirit manifested in the shooting of firecrackers, the beating of drums, and the firing of guns. The other is a more serious side—the realization of the beginnings of our country and what this has meant to the world. At the conclusion of this part of the program, the. Boy Scouts will lead the salute to the flag and the assembly will close by singing the "Star Spangled Banner." -o President Fisher and Dr. Miller Honored By Wide Recognition SUPERINTENDENT OF PUBLIC INSTRUCTION DELIVERS ADDRESS N. D. SHOWALTER, HEAD OF STATE DEPARTMENT, MAKES FIRST APPEARANCE HERE. DISCUSSES SUCCESS Making his first official appearance at this Normal, State Superintendent of Public Instruction N. D. Showalter addressed the student body in the assembly yesterday at^ reaching Bellingham at about 11 o'clock. Discusses Phases In his speech, he discussed the various phases of modern life which make this age the "most marvelous" that history has ever known. He mentioned a few outstanding characters who personify the "spirit of the age;" refering to Knute Rock-ne's philosophy of success through co-operation; Charles Lindberg's courage and determiantion; and Thomas A. Edison's application. "Prosperity is not just around the corner, but around several corners," Mr. Showalter stated, and it will come only through adjusting ourselves to conditions as they actually exist nationally and internationally. o TALLCOTT TO READ DRAMA JULY TENTH ART SCHOOL DEAN TO GIVE "DEATH TAKES A HOLIDAY." Rollo Anson Tallcott, dean of Williams School of Expression and Dramatic Art in New York, will read Walter Farris' famous play, "Death Takes a Holiday," in one of the promising assemblies the Normal offers, on July 10. The play "Death Takes a Holiday," in itself was sufficiently successful to have a long run 'in New York. Nationally Known The name of Rollo Anson Tallcott is nationally known. For twenty years as teacher, author, and director of dramatics, he has held responsible positions in four widely-known instirution; namely, Hiram College, Valparaiso University, Butler University, and the Williams School of Expression and -Dramatic Art. During his work of teaching, Mr. Tallcott has become skilled in the art of play-reading, or presentation through suggestive characterization only, of the best dramatic compositions of the period. + Helped by Teachers With the help of such recognized CHUCKANUT CLIMBED '•": BY STUDENTS DURING REGULAR EVENING TRIP Fif/ty students participated last Tuesday night in the climb up Chuckanut Mountain, which was the second of this summer's series of evening hikes. Long Hike «* The hike was the longest, though not the most difficult, of any yet taken; and the weather permitted an excellent view of Mount Baker and the islands of the bay. Lunch was eaten at the top of the mountain, and after twenty minutes' rest the party descended, 9 o'clock. o— ; .

JACK GREAVES. ..Editor ..Business Manager CSHSHSnSHHHB^ By MARK JARRETT HHSZ25HCKHHHB REAL GOOD WILL The students and faculty as a whole seemed to greatly appreciate the recent Glee club program, from two saints. The first from its actual high class entertainment value, and the second from the friendly atmosphere and spirit of good will created by the performers. Everyone took extreme interest in the entire outlay, and have discussed it favorably in more instances than the writer has heard assemblies remarked about in some time. In fact, we might say that on the whole this body was idolized and we can state no reason why there should not be such a feeling on the part of the Bellingham school people. These boys and their leaders deserve every bit of praise that they received— if for nothing else, they should have it for friendliness and gen-tlemanliness. Youth in agroup is admired by elders,and youth more than people at any other age, provided that they show themselves to be clean cut, agreeable, appreciative, friendly, and many of the other things that we put forth as constructive. These young men did all that. We hope that Bellingham Normal was equally distinguished to them, and that it was fifty percent responsible for the attitude of "make-your-self- at-home" that they seemed either to spread or to take advantage of; and we hope it was a little of both. Few of us are ready to take our programs, of the high class nature that they are, in evening colthes, with knowledge of the background of music, and with that boring atmosphere of restraint and aloofness built up around us. It is possible to give the students fine entertainment, seasoned with that old standby "pep;" and when it is done, it is appreciated. We compliment the Milwaukee singers and feel that they are certainly creating neat impressions about their school by traveling with the attitude that they have. Such work is not going for naught. Press reports from Seattle announce Pelagius Williams, local history instructor, as newly elected vice-president of the Washington Society for Mental Hygiene. Professor Williams has been diligently engaged for some time in social work, both locally and throughout the state, and we are glad to see his efforts recognized. o We laugh with the Cheney editor who remarked last week on a sign in that town reading "June Bride Sale." A SUMMER ANNUAL With interest we note the report that Cheney Normal has elected an editor for the Arrow, a summer annual at that institution. It is the "summer annual" that interests us, for it is something a little different from what we are used to or what we expect to see in Washington Normal schools. .. We think that if such a thing is possible in that institution, it is certainly a clever plan. We would say that there are two things pointing strongly toward the possibility of the project. One of them is the ease with which they will be able to finance it, and the other is the spirit and organization about school that will make a ready welcome for it. It would be a little awkward to put extra fees on the students here this summer to pay for an annual, after the registration total has been forced skyward to take care of the difficulties brought about by budget cuts. Then, too, there are not the clubs, athletics, graduates, and so on, to put that air of tradition and souvenir value on it in Bellingham. We note that east of the mountains, various clubs and organizations are having pictures taken and placed in the Arrow, while the graduates are having meetings' and getting all lined up for the publication. We do not know the exact situation at the inland institution, but we sense that a different type of school project is needed there in the sum-time. For instance, our island cruises and Victoria trip and our easy access to amusements of all sorts leave much less time to the students for the customary extra-curricular activity. In other words, as is always the case in Coast towns in summer, interest is divided among so many individual recreations that the community affairs is not always necessary. At any rate we wish the Savages success with their publication. You see, folks, we have been switching from the teacher's viewpoint to the student's attitude until we hardly know how to act on this page. After a year fit teaching, one can't be mean to the teachers; and after a year of school, one can't be mean enough. *^ * * Old grads, returning to give dear old Alma the once over, will rejoice to see the weather-beaten but kindly phiz of the overstuffed cinnamon bear labeled Ursus Americana, once ridden bareback for several hours by one Keppler, on a-memorable day in the late twenties.

NO LOSSES A long toss, in last night's game, by Gable in the overtime period netted two" points and victory for Bob Walters' Purple Pansies over "Spud" Hunnicutt's Netted Gems, and thereby winning the first half pennant for the Pansies in the Men's Intramural Basketball league. The final score was 27-25. In the fight for the cellar championship the Cellerites lived up to their name by dropping into last place with Nichol's outfit on the top of a 24-4 score. Gems Take Lead The Netted Gems started off with a couple of quick baskets from tip-off plays and it looked as though they might start their usual rally for landslide scores, but the winners soon settled down and tied the score when,, it reached the eight digit mark. From then on neither team enjoyed a safe lead. At half time the gold shirted lads of Hunnicutt's were on the long end of a 16-14 score. The last half went by in much the same manner as the first with the score on each side being close together. Two of the gentlemen left the floor at this stage of the game at the request of referee Gunn. Both expressed willingness to use the "dukes'* if necessary, but the affair soon cooled down and the game went on as before. Close Playing Other than the fact that both teams had large men, and with the play being close and fast, it became a little rough at times, but on the whole it was a clean game and many expressed opinions that it was one of the fastest intramural games that they have seen for some time. The red-clad Pansjes were in possession of a three-point lead with five minutes of the game left. They were unable to hold it though and the score was at 25 all when the main playing time ended. After a minute and a half of close checking in the extra period, Johnny Gable tossed in his long one and the Pansies manged to hold their opponents from further scores. Two Score Heavily . Thorsen and Walters were the two leading scorers of the afternoon. The former getting 13 points and the latter 12. Skotheim was next with 7 points and Thorlackson followed with 5. This assures the Purple Pansies of an entry in the championship series between the first and second half winners. The second half will start Monday with the same schedule as before, and if the present champs can continue undefeated, they will emerge with a hands down grip on the mythical pennant/' o MANY IN RACE FOR LEAD ON LADDERS Competition is keen among the various aspirants for the top rung in the Men's Ladder sports.

MARATHON NORMAN BRIGHT TO TRY FOR HONORS IN RUN TOMORROW. INTRAMURAL CAME FROM CELLARITES GEMS TAKE LEAD IN MONDAY NIGHT TOURNEY; SIDEWINDERS CLOSE GAME TUESDAY. DREESZEN LEADS To those who have been in school during the past three years, or those who have kept in touch with the Normal athletic activities during that time, Norman Bright needs no introduction; but to some of the older students who have been out of touch with the school for some time, he probably appears to be, as they pass him in the hall, just another competitor for one of the 12,000 positions in the state. In Seattle Race If you have noticed him as he swings around the track on Waldo field each evening in training for the P. I. Marathon held in Seattle tomorrow, you can not but realize that he is thoroughly at home. One needs be no coach to observe the form he displays. "Norm" holds the Tri-Normal record for the mile, stepping it this spring in 4:32.9 minutes. His best time on the mile was made against the Y. M. C. A. of Vancouver, B. C, 4:25.4. Praises Carver Bright knew practically nothing of racing when he came to Belling-ham, and he modestly gives Coach Sam Carver most of the credit for his achievements. He won all of his twelve starts this year. Norman's home is in Chehalis. He will teach next year at Pearson, in Kitsap county. He plans to continue his studies at Stanford Uiu gt;; versity. next summer. The student body wishes Norman the best of luck in his race tomorrow. .

A sweater is awarded to any ^irl who has been a member of seven first teams, and who, in addition, has 300 points to her credit, the points being awarded according to the W. A. A. point system These additional points are earned by swimming, hiking, extra hours of play, taking part in intramural activities, etc. Miss Thompson has been a member of the first team in the following sports: hockey, service-ball, soccer (two quarters), and. baseball (two quarters). She was manager of basketball during last winter ter quarter, which is counted the same as a first team position. A sweater also was presented to Lorena Burke this week. However, since she is not. attending now, it was sent to her home. o GOLF Due to the large number of students registering for the golf course, it has been necessary to split the 11 o'clock class. As a result there are now classes in golf at eleven, twelve, and three o'clock every Wednesday and Thursday. The classes consist for the greater part of beginners, although a great many are somewhat familiar with the game. o SAGEBRUSH PICNIC The Sagebrush club held its first summer outing at Rainbow Beach, Lake Samish, last night.

She first appeared in America in 1925, as Nan Dybdahl, soloist with the University of Oslo Men's chorus, which toured here for three months. At present she is making her home in Bellingham, having returned to America two and a half years ago as Mrs. Wiik. Many students will remember previous recitals by Mrs. Wiik, as she gave two concerts at the Normal school in 1920, shortly after taking residence in this country.

Reid has undergone two operations to remove clots of blood from his lungs, which have hindered his progress. He is not registered in'school this quarter, but expects to return in the fall. o— PRES. FISHER AND DR. MILLER IN WHO'S WHO HelM riMsoMp And, Incidentally, S o ^ Who Are Not "Dutch" Wilder, who has been known as the wildest member of a Wilder family, was born in Blaine an indefinite number of years ago, and stayed there through his grade school and high school years. Early Nick Name When asked to explain the reason for the name "Dutch", which he had acquired, he said, with a particularly vague and almost mysterious aspect, "That is a long story/" He did not proceed with any fluent explanations either, except that the name has been his for the total sum of twenty years, and that he had acquired it while in .the first grade. (And here we find a tangible clue as to the gentleman's age.) "Dutch" is no mere amateur at the teaching game for he has taught in four different schools for a number of years. In all his teaching career he has had charge of the athletics, and in three of the schools he has worked with high school athletics. Likes Golf I t was found that he is just another golf addict (an evidently incurable thing which three-fourths of the men in America are bothered with) and that much of his spare time is spent with his golf clubs. Since every inteligent man must have a hobby, Mr. Wilder was, of course, expected to have one. He thought only for a brief moment, then. replied, "My hobby is split between reading the Saturday Evening Post, playing golf, and indulging in quiet games of pinochle and bridge!" And, if anyone can find a healthier hobby than this one, let it be known! And how about the little blonde girl at the switch-board? We fired questions at her for half an hour and still aren't particularly well versed as to her mysterious past. Age Doubtful Her name is Orleane Fitcha, and she was born in Astoria, Ore., where she attended grade school' and high school. (She said that she was born forty-nine years ago, but there was a twinkle in her eye,, so we didn't ask her what cream is used to keep that school-girl complexion.) Orleane has a hobby which (strange factf) is not golf, although she does try her luck at that game now and then, too. She is quite interested in swimming and has been all her life. Opinion Asked When asked for her opinion on men, she said with dignity, "I have none! But if you'd make the question singular—" then we noticed the little fraternity pin and avoided asking any further questions on the vital subject! Miss Fitcha. has a few likes and dislikes, too. She said, "I like to do things that are out of the ordinary, things that you can do on the spur of the moment! And I dislike- Well! I dislike being interviewed!" (At which we shrunk considerably.) Miss Fitcha declares that she likes spinach, which is perhaps a' bit unusual, and that blue is her favorite color, although there is no particular reason for her choice. She may have a touch of sentimentality, also, for she loves music —be it jazz or classical, and anyone can see that she spends many patient hours at the key-board! Students Doing Work In Clay Processes Miss Zeal Z. Wilson's Industrial Art classes are doing some very interesting work. Rural Student Work The rural students are making a study of clay products and are carrying out a number of clay processes; including coiling pottery by hand, pressing with plaster of par-is forms, and pouring with clay slip to make moulded forms. In connection with this work, they are making their own plaster of paris moulds and forms. The intermediate people are concentrating on the study of records. The making of signature books, with pages folded and numbered before sewing; reports on present day commercial processes of making books; printing newspapers; and other types of records, will be a part of this study. Making Study AH of these classes are making a study of the manufacture of the commercial products which they are using in the laboratory. o Camp Crafters Do Batik Dye Work (Continued from Page One) „..r,^,. 1: £|s^a Washington State legislature; J.
