On pages 5and 6 of this week's edition, we are almost deluged under a flood of letters. They cover everything fromClough to the Administration to boys singing to girls' houses. All we can say is that this is one opinion-packed Christmas package. We would like to tie it up with some kind of ribbon, but we don't think there is any strong enough to hold the controversial contents. It remains our policy, however, to print all signedletters, even though some of them wouldn't look nice under the campus Christmas tree.â€”The Editor.western Washington COLLEGIAN Western Washington College, Beliingham, Washington Vol. LS, No. 10 - Dee. 12, 1958 No more reel changes: Legislature Moves to Acquire 'Cinemascope' THE STUDENTLEGISLATURE WENT ON RECORD Wednesday night in approval of the purchase of an anamorphiclens, a new projector and installation expenses that will bring cinemascope movies and continuousprojection to campus movies. "By not charging admission to these movies, we will not have trouble from downtown people and everyone on campus could be admitted free," Legislator Barbara Bos, said inexplaining her plan for taking a 25 cent per person fee from present student government fees andapplying it to the cinemascope plan. The Legislature approved the committee recommendation andappointed a special committee to investigate the plan further. Fred Boede presented the group witha W Club plan to obtain programs from the Coca-Cola company for basketball games, selladvertising for them and sell them to students. Profits would be turned over to increasing athleticscholarships. "We're trying to build up our W Club to something besides just saying it's there,"Legislator Fred Emerson said. The Legislature approved the plan and gave the W Club permissionto carry it out, AFTER LISTENING TO COLLEGIAN EDITOR Ken Robertson for 15 minutes, andhaving heard Collegian Adviser James Bliss the week before, the Legislature unanimously approvedgiving the power in signing Collegian requisitions to the Collegian Editor. "I believe students shouldbe responsible for student money," Robertson said, "The Legislature can fire me any time if they don'tlike the way I handle it." IN ONE OF THE HASTIEST PARTS of the meetingâ€”adjournmentâ€”President Al Jung announced that next quarter the Student Union Committee would be junked andreplaced by a "Union Board" to be headed by Joe Malik, and that the ASB Executive was instituting aCodified Revision Committee that would advise the administration on the legal aspects of powersand commitments of the ASB. Bruce Hannaford, a graduate student, will head the committee. "Wait aminute, Mr. President; before we adjourn don't we approve of these things?" Legislator Dave Amosbroke in. "Next meeting," Jung stated and adjourned the legislature until next quarter. Curtain Rises onDrama of 'Suspense and Love' Tonight THE LEGEND of Barbara Allen will come to life tonight andtomorrow night in the Music Auditorium, as the curtain rises on "Dark of the Moon." Curtain time is8:15 p.m. This play, a story of a witch boy who wants to become human so he can court BarbaraAllen is a combination of music, dance and drama. It combines the elements of conflict, suspenseand love to make the story, as Dr. Gregory recently s t a t e d , "One of the most unusual and mostexciting plays to be given here at Western in recent years." The combination of unusual and interestingstage settings should also add to the excitement of the play, and making it a show worth seeing. I N TE R P R E T I N G SMOKEY MOUNTAIN life has been the goal of Richardson and Burney, the twoSouth Carolinan authors of "Dark of the Moon." In the play they have set forth a standard of living verydifferent from that of our own, one A scene from 'Dark of the Moon.' which may be criticizedâ€”oraccepted by open minded people for what it isâ€”a standard of a class below that which we normallyaccept. Tickets for the production can be obtained all day today at the box office in the A-M Building.Tickets will also be available to students this evening and tomorrow evening upon presentation of theirASB cards. For those other than students and faculty there will be a. one dollar admission charge. ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1958 December 12 - Page 2 ---------- Page 2 WESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAN December 12, 1958 Western hosts press conference:Paper Responsible to Students Not Gov't; Jung Tells Editors Nearly 50 newspaper and annual staffmembers from all annual representatives lt; " 7 ' ' Â° ' ' ' p n President Al Jung say that ued theiranalysis of "â€” a over Washington State heard ASB a newspaper editor is responsible to his readers,not his govern ment, as he welcomed delegates to the fifth annual Evergreen State Press AssociationConference held in Bellingham Friday and Saturday The total delegation of approximately 45 studentsfrom colleges state heard speeches by Northwest and universities throughout the publications personnel, both collegiate and professional, and discussed publications problems in annual and newspaperseminars. Meeting at the Bellingham Hotel on Friday and Saturday, the group moved to the campus forthe Saturday afternoon sessions. Because of the weather, several of the delegations from east of themountains left late Saturday afternoon. ASB PRESIDENT AL JUNG welcomed the representativesFriday and spoke of the mutual responsibilities and communication necessary to both the studentpress and student government. The student press, Jung stated, is not responsible to its studentgovernment but to its student readers. Both student government and the student press should try tofoster public and individual expression among students. Herald City Editor Bill Fowler spoke to thenewspaper representatives on the general quality of their papers and then dealt specifically with . e a c h . . paper. Fowler commented; that , he "believed that many of the limitations to be found in collegenewspapers were the result of very restricted budgets and, consequently, limited space, rather than to a lack of talent." On the whole, he considered the efforts quite good. A PROFESSIONAL REPORTER,Larry Hildebrand, also of the Herald, spoke to the group as future journalists late Friday afternoon.Talking informally, he answered questions about profesisonal journalism and compared it toCollegiate work. Also on Friday afternoon, Clyde Robinson, manager of Student Publications at theUniversity of Washington, spoke to annual representatives. He discussed the reason why theUniversity had elected to have their yearbook published by a firm in Texas rather than a local one. Mainly the switch was due to the increased services which the Texas company offered and a lower bid bysome $4,000. Following Robinson's talk, the annual group heard James Abbott of Seattle's CraftsmanPress explain the advantages of Photolithographic Printing. MAIN SPEAKER AT the banquet, WallieFunk, Editor of the Anacortes American, presented the newspaper plaque to Wayne Ehlers, ManagingEditor of the Collegian. Dr. O'Brien of the English Department, made the annual award. On SaturdayMiss Bonnie Wiley from Central led a seminar on Newspaper features, and continued the judging decisions made on the annuals. Later in the morning Rogan Jones spoke to the entire group on his trip to Russia, and the Russian newspaper and T-V. THE NOON BANQUET at Edens Hall wasattended by Dr. W. W. Haggard, Western president, who spoke briefly to the group on the college andtheir student bodies' problems and challenges which will have to be met in the near future. Highlight ofthe last session was a discussion of the freedom of the press, preceded by a brief statement ofpositions by Western Legislator Jack Rabourn and Wayne Ehlers. At the same time Letterpressprinitng was discussed by Kenneth Miller of Western Engraving in Seattle. His talk was followed bycomments on annual photography by Russ Clift of Jukes Studio in Bellingham. DON DANIELS ofEastern and Linda Bruns of Whitworth were elected by the assembly to succeed Ken Robertson andFaith Hearsey as 1959 ESPA Director and Secretary.

Publicity has been built up around these aspectsof the play: it will feature hill folk, the main character is a "witchboy," it is a story of love and suspense,"witchboy" is supposed to fly from a mountain on stage. The staging of the play, the preparation, thedirection are things playgoers do not see, however. But they are the things that make the play.

The original bid forconstruction of the SUB did not call for this additional section. David Laster, chairman of the . Student Union Committee, and Harold Goltz, director of Student Activities, have requested the contractors tomake material and structural changes which will result in the reduction of --' the cost of the building. yThe cost cuts include a savings of $5,560 made possible by changing accoustical plaster to accousticaltile throughout most of the building. The elimination of all Mag-nasite Terrazzo floors except in thelobby and on the front stairs will save $7,000. "WE HAVE HAD WONDERFUL cooperation from thecontractors in making changes in building costs without destroying the quality and characteristics of thebuilding," Goltz said. The added publications area will now be able to provide room for a new CollegianOffice, as well as space for the other publications, such as The Profile, The Writer, The Navigator, and The Klipsun. A darkroom and other photographic facilities will be included. UNDER A" 300-DAYcontract, the construction of the SUB, which waa begun on Nov. 3, is scheduled to be finished on Aug.28, 1959. Interior Designer Douglas Bennett is working in collaboration with Architect Fred Bassetti.Bennett is deciding upon the interior decorations now instead of waiting to plan the furnishings whenthe building is completed. Substituting as a ballroom, the main lounge will have colored thermostatic-controlled lights, which can be raised or lowered, brightened or dimmed. Bennett is designing the lounge furniture and features in conjunction with these electrical lights. "If they ever get a cinemascope lensfocused on this part of the campus . . . wow!" 'No More Breaks in Movies,9 ASB Veep Says Deck theHalls with Advertising' THE ASB SOCIAL BOARD is considering the purchase of an anamorphic lensadapter, a cinemascope screen and a new arc projector for continual movie projection. Of course thisproject will be expensive. The anamorphic lens adaptor zootdd cost approximately $220, thecinemascope screen (size 14' x 30') would run about $450 and the new arc projector, being the mostexpensive, would cost about $1,500. Installation cost of all would be $300. The present projector hasundergone a complete overhaul and at the present time is in excellent condition. The question thenwould be, are you students satisfied with the present system of movies? At the present Western has an adequate movie program. This means we have a popular price and fairly good selection of movies, butthey are one, two or three years old. To strive for an even better program, we can not maintain the status quo. The second projector would give Social Board movies a theater-like showing. No breaks would bepresent â€” each film would be shown straight through. Is this an item we can do without?Cinemascope is a coming thing on several Washington college campuses. Central WashingtonCollege has installed this program and it is working out very well. The rental of cinemascope films would not cost any more than what we pay at the present time for our films. The only additional cost wouldmost likely be five or ten cents per student to make allowances for wage increases for studentemployees which goes into effect' next year. THEN, W E S T E R N STUDENT BODY, shall wespend approximately $2,500 for the, entire program? Can we do without the additional arc projector? We would appreciate hearing from you.â€”Kirb Cleveland AIR CONDITIONED the ALPINE CAFETERIA 1223 Cornwall B. B. Has the Selection FURNITURE HOUSEWARES APPLIANCES EASYPAYMENT SERVICE Corner of Bay and Prospect Christmas is just about here, the snow is (was, atleast) falli n g , bells are ringing, and everyone is of good cheer-especially people with a product tosell. Those people, the manufacturers and others who take advantage of Christmas to push a product,are the target of Stan Freberg, a master of sarcasm, who takes a king-sized swing at those whocommercialize the Yule-tide season on a new record called GREEN CHRISTMAS. This new release is a 6 minute, 50 second blast by Freberg, with the Jud Conlon (never heard of them) Chorale and BillyMay's band, at those who utilize November and December to make a holly-wreathed buck. The record is chock-full of priceless barbs: "Christmas has two S's in it, and they're both dollar signs," criesFreberg in answer to one who suggests that Christmas might have some other significance than acommercial one. "Words to live by," gloats Scrooge, played by Freberg, "Christmas is something totake advantage ofâ€”jump on the red and green bandwagonâ€”a sentimental shot in the arm forsales!" "Deck the halls with advertising, What's the use of compromising?" scheeches the Choralewith glee. And so it goes. The public can take its hat off to Stan Freberg, an advertising man himself, for expressing the general ill feeling towards the massive prostitution of a pretty important birthday. Whiletalking about records, I may as well bring up another record of a different vein. The record is an AngelRecording, T H E R U S S I A N A R MY You're ALWAYS Next! HALVERSON'S BARBER SHOP 125North Coinercial Bellingham Hotel Building "We must put the College on the map, men. This is it. 'Give a student for Christmas/ Tremendous, eh men?" CHORUS AND BAND. At the risk of being named a"pink," I want to say that this record is excellent. The Chorus is magnificent and polished, the bandplays with authoritativeness and finesse. The band and the chorus work as a unit, and the listener isoverwhelmed by the marvelous total sound generated by this] team. The selections are mainlyRussian and Ukranian folk songs, but as this performance was given in London, the Russians comeacross with two well known English songs as well. One of the very impressive numbers is the oldfavorite, "The Volga Boatmen." This one gives the chorus a real chance to show their stuff, and they do.THE SHOCK OF MY LIFE came when I heard this group take off on "It's A Long Way to Tiperary"; tosay the least, I was impressed. At the end of this cut I zoas looking for a dotted line to sign my nameon. The listener can still feel the glint in the eyes of the Russians as they outdo the English on theirown song. Get good and liberal; give this record a listen.

Y C1 Â£Perhaps is is only because the Bellingham Police Department is trying to enforce the law, and Whilewalking past the playfield in front of the Campus School perhaps it is only because college students areoversensitive about receiving parking tickets or t h e o t h e r d a y I *** t n e siris' field ^ k e y team inaction. From the being arrested on their way to mail a letter. If this is the case, then some of the lawsshould be changed or at least made public more often. A college student we know was walking innocently down the street this quarter when he was taken to the Police Department and accused of molesting agirl. His grilling was not pleasant. More students we know are having trouble finding places to park theircars and when they park them in 'no parking' areas at night where they have never received tickets before, they suddenly find themselves receiving parking tickets, even when their parking is not obstructing trafficor harming anyone. The arrests and tickets may all be within the law, but it is certainly not a way for thePolice Department to win friends and influence people. GENERALLY, POLICEMEN IN THIS CITY AREUNDERSTANDING and nice people. Lately their actions appear as a crusade to gain money for the city.We say "appear." Perhaps they are only up here because alarmists in this part of the city have atendency of calling the police whenever they hear a strange noise. There seem to be too many prissypeople who would not allow college students to have a little normal, human fun,, sometimes, especiallywhen the fun is actually hurting no one. If the city and the people in it do not understand that youngpeople do not yet have the "maturity" to conduct themselves always as if attending a funeral, then theyshould import a seminary or establish a few more mortuaries in their town. At any rate, the interest of thePolice Department is not what we are talking about when we students of Western invite the interest of thecity in our affairs and activities.

A letterfrom the editor: Is he implying that the student is an insignificant nobody, and therefore what thestudent feels is not important? Or, is he trying to say that anyone who backs the legislature isinsignificant? Is this the paper's latest way of improving public relations? It seems as though Cloughcan hand out criticism but is a little too thin-skinned to take it! Oh yes, has anyone on the Collegianstaff besides Dave Amos ever heard of original humor? We're glad Clough labels his "jokes" as such!We're also wondering why the paper allows Clough to write for it. We've all seen better examples ofwriting in high school.

It is this editor's belief that because of thatalone there should be something in their college newspaper that they can turn to and enjoy and feel isspeaking for them. Why do we of the Collegian print the Column of Neil Clough? That is a question that is being asked more violently than ever these days, and we do have an answer. The president of theAssociated Students Friday stated that the newspaper editor's responsibility is not to the studentgovernment, but to the student readers. This is a point we have long believed in and battled over, and areabsolutely overjoyed that at long last someone has joined our side who is not necessarily on our side allthe way. We print the column of Neil Clough because we believe he and his opinions are representative of a majority of the students at Westernâ€”the students who do not take part in government, who do noteven attend legislature meetings, who have little to say in anything that goes on around the College, who do not seem to matter to many people in high offices. But they are here and they have opinions. Thesepeople matter to us. They are our readers. or 0 Dear Editor: AFTER READING Mr. Opper-man's letter to the editor of last week I felt it my duty to come to the aid of Neil Clough. It is my opinion, but I feel I can safely say that it is the opinion of 75 to 80% of the student body that Mr. Clough's column has broughtnew light to the Collegian. In the three years I've been at Western Neil Clough is the first guy with gutsenough to stand up and say what he thinks FOR SOMEONE WHO quite often abounds in rude, purelyemotional, and often unfounded criticism, he has little room to speak. I hope that during his studentteaching (which he is doing now) he doesn't pass this irresponsible attitude on to the children. By theway, Mr. Clough, I am not a member of the Legislature and I'm not in need of measurements for ablazer. But I am one of several who have been disgusted with your column since its inception.ROBERT WHEELER 'Thank the Boys For the Sernade To the Editor: KLUANE HALL WOULD like toClough's column is certainly not grounded on fact or even on good "journalism." It is a column of opinionand that has always been stated. In contrast to it, we offer a column by the ASB Executive, the news ofthe college, the solid facts on our other pages, and even editorial opinion that solidly differs with Mr.Clough. But for us to ignore the average studentâ€”the one who really pays for this paper and itspublication-would be a reversion to the past when cliques controlled everything and only they hadnewspaper space to continually harangue on points that interested nobody but themselves. Mr. Clough's criticism may be rude, but often the truth is rude. His opinions may not be fact, but who can say what isfact, and how many can say that people in public offices always speak the truth when all many of themever utter are platitudes and harmless philosophies to content people who do not know what is goingon, because what is really going on is kept from them? Mr. Clough may offend the pleasant attitudes and the "nice" atmosphere on our campus, but the pleasant and the nice are not the only facts of life. Thejokes and criticisms he writes may not be original or nice or pleasant, but they are what people think and say everyday, and when one cannot print what he thinks or says, then the printed word will neverrepresent anything but an emasculated, distorted picture of our life and times. We believe that themajority of our readers want his column to continue and until that belief is changed it will continue. To ushe represents the students who pay for publication of the Collegian. Not just the people in office, or thepeople who complain about anything they do not consider "nice." We may not always agree with what he says, but we defend his right to say it. He occupies only a small space in our paper compared to thecountless people who are always saying the same old things. Never before has this editor been told byso many students that they like something in the Collegian as those who tell him about Clough's column. By the way, if you do not like his column, why do you read it? â€”KEN ROBERTSON WW CollegianEntered as second class matter at the post office at Bellingham, by virtue of the act of March 8. 1879.Second Class Postage Paid at Bellingham.

Retain the "status quo"and Western will retain its static position which seems to be the aim of certain members of theadministration and the administrative policy. I would like to ask Dr. Haggard, does Western have anArts and Science Program? The college catalogue implies that it does, but the Placement Office does not seem to be aware of the fact. Wednesday night several of the Arts and Science seniors attendeda meeting in which "ALL seniors are urged to attend" only to find one hour and fifteen minutes devoted to placing teachers and not one mention of placement for the Arts and Science graduate. About 20% ofthe student body are enrolled in the Arts and Science Program. Are all of these people to be exposed toa system which is the outgrowth of the Education Curriculum? Whether in an education or non-education course, the emphasis is placed on the situation we will face as a graduated teacher. IWISH TO EXPRESS the student's appreciation to Mr. O'Neil for the wonderful job he is doing ondistributing information on scholarships available to Western graduates. On more than one occasionhe has implied that the Western student is not capable of being granted a good scholarship. Hemay be right. I cannot remember tlie lasi, recipient of a Rhodes orâ€¢ Fulbright awardâ€”or could it bethat the qualified students are not made aware of their availability. It is encouraging to find that thePuritan ideology is still retained at Western. It seems that n o t b e h e r e - However, I and manycigarette advertising is to be others are fed-up with the prevailing frowned upon in the COLLEG- graduatehigh school attitude. If IAN. We are all aware of the t n e college catalogue is to continue fact that theWestern student to l i s t a n Axts a n d Science Program, does not smoke, and can evi- l e t i t s effectbe felt in the academic dence this hyprocisy in the form realm and not only verbiage in a of the cigarettemachine in the Publication. We want a college student lounge. It is also grati- w h i c h We c a n n a m ew i t h Pr i d e i n" fying to note, Dean Powers, that s t e a d o f hanging our head in shame a certainlocal dining room is a n d stating we are from Bellingham not an approved college meeting ^o r m a l -place because it has a bar in the same building. Are you aware, Miss Powers, that Western has thereputation of a drinking school? WE IN THE ARTS AND SCIENCE Curriculum consider Western to be a good school or we would I challenge the Administration to publicly express their views on theseissues. Do you, the liberal arts students of Western, agree with me? I am interested in your views andI'm sure the Administration is also. LARRY McCORD Since this will be taken as a seriouslycontroversial letter, it seems well to state here that letters to the editor do not reflect the opinion of theCollegian or the College.â€”Editor I T HAS BEEN I^OVBP AND SECONDED THAT WE SEffATQCS BEEXEMPT FROM -SCHOOt-CAWS. ALU OPPOSED MAY TURN IN THEIR COCLCP LI PS. It's a LongStory . . . 'â€¢ Freshman Tells of Germany TRY OUR DRIVE-IN CASH AND CARRY MILK PUN Saveon Fresh Milk "IT'S A LONG STORY, but the final reason why we came to America was because weconsidered it would be an adventure," explains Western freshman Christal Gedicks to the question ofwhy she and her parents left Germany in 1956. The details go back to World War II. "I WAS BORN INWHAT IS NOW EAST GERMANY, but during the war we moved away from advancing troops. For fouryears we didn't know where my father was, and when we were re-united after the war we no longer had ahome." But it was not until the family was settled in Lubach, near Hamburg, and inflation struck thatthey applied to come to America. Meanwhile, Mr. Gedicks sold his store and moved the family toWupper-tal, in the Rhineland. 'We'd heard that everyone in America is a millionaire," Miss Gedicksrecalls with a smile. "We thought we would go to America and join the crowd. But it took three years toget the papers through. There was red tape and countless questions. They kept asking us, 'Are youNazis? We were told we'd have to wait." WITH A CHARMING SMILE, the freshman class Homecomingprincess added, "I'm glad we moved now. I like it very much in this nation, and I like it at Western." Buttimes were not always so bright. "I can still remember the war. It was terrible. We moved from town totown and I can remember streets lined with dead persons or with marching soldiers." It was near the end of the war that Miss Gedicks recalls seeing Russians for the first time. She-remarked that theyseemed to have no culture or civilization. They washed potatoes in the toilet, for instance, and had goldteeth made from confiscated rings and watches, the comely Western lass stated. "There is hatred of the Russians for what they did in Germany. The Americans gave us candy bars and the attitude of thepeople was different towards them. But the children were afraid to go to the Russians." She mentionedmore atrocious specific instances, then digressed to tell a humorous story about the Russians. It seems that her mother knew a lady from whom had been stolen a pocket watch, and that the Russian soldiertook the watch to the jewelry store. There he demanded the large watch be made into three little wristwatches! The pleasantness of West Germany's Rhineland was made evident. :^: . y?J.v-: Â£-: â€¢ .^ ' "People in Germany are not so rushed as in America. We like natureâ€”water and nature. I like thepeople in the Rhine-land. And there's drinking. From age 10! Well . . . You should go to the winterfestsâ€” not just because of the wine, though. Many Americans attend them. The interview wasreluctantly (on the reporter's part) concluded with her observation that too many political questions had been asked. Student Christal Gedicks then returned to class.

Westernwas hurt early in the game when Ron Thompson was forced to leave the floor with a multiple nosefracture, but the Viks stayed with the Lutes until the last moments when a barrage of PLC foul tossesfound the mark and the Vikings went down in defeat. High scorer for the game was Lute center BobRoiko who stuffed in 25 counters, 15 of them from the charity line. Bill Wright led the Vikings with 14while Nello Morganti picked up eleven.

Next Friday andSaturday night the Vikings tangle with Willamette and Linfield of the Northwest Conference. OnJanuary 22 Western travels to Linfield for their final tuneup prior to the opening of EvergreenConference action, on January 9. Seattle Pacific, minus their high scoring guard Loren Anderson, haveto depend on a double post. Orville Anderson, the Falcon's leading scorer, and John Knaplund handlethe pivot alignments. Pint-size Ron James is the top outside man and does a good job of feeding thepost men. RON THOMPSON, WESTERN'S high scoring center, will wear a face mask to protect hisbroken nose. A doubtful starter is Ray Kycek who bumped his head on the backboard in a recentscrimmage. Jack deKub-ber, a major disappointment so far this year, is now fully recovered from theankle injury that slowed him up in the first three games. COMMENTING ON HIS team's performance inTacoma Coach Jack Hubbard stated, "Our defense was good and the offense is rapidly improving. Our field goal percentage has not been too good but we have had a strong defense to fall back on." If Kycek is unable to play against Seattle Pacific, Ron Sal-tis will probably get the starting call. Saltis, astarter earlier in the season, is a good defensive player but has failed to score in the first three games. Hubbard expects his squad to be at full strength for the league opener against Eastern, Jan. 9. EdVadset and Wendy Weld will give Western considerable strength at guard and forward respectively, ifthey are eligible winter quarter. Both players were starters earlier in the season but have beenineligible due to grade difficulties. IN INDIVIDUAL STATISTICS reserve guard Dermot Cunningham has shot 67% from the field while Thompson has flipped in 52% of his field goal attempts. From the freethrow line Thompson has plunked in 23 of 31 attempts for 74 per cent. Gary Moore, freshman forward,leads the squad in free throw accuracy sinking four of five charity tosses for 80%. Thompson is theleading varsity scorer with 45 points. He is followed by freshman guard Nello Morganti with 38 points,and Bill Wright who has dropped in 20. Vik Women Wrap Up Sports Program with Hockey FridayALONG WITH CHRISTMAS presents many of the sports activities carried on by the women students,will be wrapped up, too, this week. Western's women took two volleyball teams to Everett Junior College last Friday to participate in an all-day volleyball sportsday. The Blue Team won 5 and lost 2 games.The "spikers" on this team were Betty Olson, captain, Leslie Larson, Jean Patton, Nancy Wheeler,Phyllis Hedges and Sandy Shaw. The White team Vik Swimmers Ready For Opening Meet UNDERTHE COACHING of John Kulbitski Western's mermen are slowly rounding into shape for the comingcampaign. The squad practices three times a week, although classes cause many of the squad'smembers to miss practices. A strong contingent of newcomers are pushing the Vikings' fivereturning letter winners for the varsity jobs. The squad will not be selected until shortly before theseason opens. Returning let-termen include Alan Coghill, Cole Comings, Charles McCurdy, Dave Munro, and Harold Ro-denberger. COMMENTING ON THIS year's team, Kulbitski stated, "If all the boys areeligible we will be much stronger from all indications, than we were last year. If we are going to be in topshape when the season starts we will have to go a little harder in practice." Rodenberger, who finishedsecond in the conference in the 200- yard breaststroke and in diving, seems to be the logical choicefor individual stardom. The 400-yard freestyle relay quartet finished second in the conference last year.Three members of this relay team return this season. WESTERN JOURNEYS to the University ofWashington on January 17 for a dual meet, and travels to College of Puget Sound on Jan. 21. TheTacoma school is the opposition Jan. 30 as the Vikings open their home schedule. 2 won and lost 5games. Those on this team were Gail Tunin-ga, captain; Sue Weidman, Irish Whitechurch, CarolynLaken-nies, Marilyn Gaskell and Esther Rousso. Many of the women students are still braving theelements for those last turnouts of field hockey. Field hockey is still being played but ice hockey is nowa pre-requisite. This week will also be the last week of hockey turnout as the women begin studyingfor finals. THE FALL SPORTS were summed up by the P.E. Department as "quite successful" asthere were many new participants as well as several old ones. The girls turning out for volleyball and field hockey wish to thank volleyball adviser Miss Hull and field hockey adviser Dr. Aitken. In joining with the Yuletide spirit, the Rheba D. Nickerson Club held its annual Christmas party at the home of theiradviser Miss Ruth Weythman on Tuesday, December 9. Dinner and a visit from Santa topped theevening. ON WEDNESDAY EVENING the Women's Recreational Association held their annualChristmas party in the Campus cafeteria. By DOUG SIMPSON Another honor was added to guard EdMelbourne's gridiron accomplishments last Friday. Melbourne was named to the first team All-PacificNorthwest. Jack Sim, Dennis Sheppard, and Fred Emerson received honorable mention. The Vikinghoopsters played well in Tacoma last weekend, but lost Saturday night to PLC, 66-58. Ron Thompsonand Bob Petrosik paced the squad to Friday night's overtime victory over CPS, 56-53. . After beingoutrebounded by mediocre St. Martins two zoeeks ago, Western showed vast improvement in that all-important department. The Viks pulled down 43 rebounds to only 11 by the Loggers of CPS. Neither team was particularly effective from the floor,, but were hot on the charity line. Western converted 30 of 42attempts, with Thompson sinking 17 of 20 tosses. Against PLC Western was ahead until the last fewminutes before falling before the Lutes, 66-58. Early in the first half Western's ace pivotman RonThompson suffered a compound fracture of his nose. Coach Jack Hubbard's squad fought hard, but minus the high scoring Thompson they'; could not hold off the always rough Lutes. Bob Roiko, who has beenovershadowed by Chuck Curtis the past two years proved his value by tanking 25 points to pace PLC. gt; gt; gt; Tonight Western takes on Seattle Pacific College here in the college gym. SPC has agood ball club paced by Orville Anderson, and will give the Vikings a real battle. Ron Thompson will beable to play with the aid of a face mask. With a healthy Thompson, Western, beginning to jell as a team,should be able to topple the Falcons. There is a new addition to the swimming team's equipment thisyear. Assistant Coach Chuck Stutz has designed a mechanical rabbit that paces the swimmers. The "tin cottontail" consists of a piece of cloth tied to a string on a motor-operated pulley. The string on the pulley extends the length of the pool and is located near the edge so that it can be seen by the swimmers.After a desired time is decided upon for each lap, the indivdual figures out the pace he would have to travel in order to obtain the time; then he sets the machine accordingly. The rabbit can travel as slow as 35seconds per lap, with faster times as desired. The pacer replaces the coach who ordinarily walks backand forth at a certain pace near the pool's edge.

Pfundt was crowned at intermission of the dance by AWS president Barbara Vesledahl. Hewon out over his seven opponents in an election held during the day of the tolo. A junior residing atDaniels Hall, he is an art major and a biology minor. He has been chairman of the Associated StudentBody Publicity Board during the past few months. Pfundt claims Blaine as his home town andconfesses that his favorite pastime is skiing. TOLO CO-CHAIRMEN Jane Palmer and Maude Woodtermed the dance as a success. "We would like to thank all our committees for lending a helpinghand to make the dance a success. A special thanks should go to decorations chairman KarenBrunstrom and Janice Pilik who did such a wonderful job." Decorations were done in turquoise, black,silver, and pink magenta. Modernistic mobiles hung from the ceiling light fixtures and a wall sizedmural added accent to the wall opposite the band stand. Names of each couple attending the tolo wereinscribed on notes which decorated two large music staffs winding across the two side walls.Photographs of the dancers were taken by Benson Studios of Everett, against a free-form figure. Thepictures were arranged by photographer chairman Lou McElravy. THE DANCE WAS held from 9:30 p.m. to 12:30 a.m. in the Elks Hall with music being furnished by the College Dance Band. Audience toJoin Chorus: Music Department Presents Winter Concert Monday Night ECSA Conference to Have'New Twists' NEW TWISTS TO OLD IDEAS in student government procedures will be one of thesubjects discussed by the Evergreen Conference Student Association, it was decided last week.Heads of ECSA committees and planners composed of 15 students, held their first meeting lastThursday in the student center. Formed by 11 colleges in the state the ECSA is to promote goodwillamong the schools of higher learning and to establish and maintain high standards of scholarshipand sportsmanship. Al Jung, ECSA vice-president said, "Perhaps the fundamental purpose of theConference is to instill in the attending officers, future Presidents, and leaders, a feeling of confidencein themselves, thus a confidence in others. It will help them develop their own strong sense ofresponsibility which will communicate itself to others." "OUT OF THE CONFERENCE will come a groupof officers, representatives and communicators who will have a high standard of achievement andsimplicity in life, a simplicity where one can act on his own because he has taken the time to reasonand confide in himself. This is what the public should respect and does." The fall executive meetingwas held in November at Seattle University. Some of the colleges represented were CentralWashington, Gonzaga, Pacific Lutheran, Seattle Pacific and Western. St. Martins sat in as an observerand Washington State College will1 sit in at the spring conference. Topics will include problems onfollow-up work, making ECSA specifically useful to member schools, artist book information, theexpanding membership, keeping the meetings short and compact. The schools are going to collaboratein planning the artists and lecturer's tours. One of the chief drawbacks last year was lack of publicityand advance planning according to the representatives. To improve, Western has already set upcommittees and taken steps to make this year's conference more succesful. ORGAN, CHORAL, solovoice and instrumental music, and community singing of two favorite carols are programmed forWestern's annual Christmas Concert next Monday night, Dec. 15. Scheduled for 8:15 p.m. in theCollege Auditorium, the concert will feature nearly a hundred students, under direction of Bernard Regier, choral director, and James Brauninger, director of the Chamber Orchestra.

All too often, college is an escape from the cold cruel world where one has to support oneself. It's easy to let your parents support you for another four years. Have youever heard of the term "Office Hours"? Have you ever raised your hand in class to ask a question; orhave you just sat there and vegetated with the rest of the "totem poles"? You're in college, not highschool. I know it must be a shock to have to do a little individual thinking and working after the easyroutine of high school. And to top it off, you single out the history department. You would have a hardtime finding a group of instructors who would be more interested in working with students individually. Allyou have to do is darken their door and they will be glad to help you fulfill your ambitions. In conclusion, I would suggest that you do something about your "fascination" other than talk about it. Either do thelatter, or take "Underwater Basketweaving" or "Underwater Cheerleading."

ILTON E. TERRY JEWELER 1305 Commercial Street Page 4 WESTERN WASHINGTONCOLLEGIAN November 7, 1959 ---------- Collegian - 1959 November 7 - Page 5 ---------- By BOB STEVENSON, Collegian Artist, Columnist Beatnik coffee houses are in the news so frequentlylately that they have become a constant curiosity as far north as Bellingham. In an alley off GardenStreet, a few blocks from campus, a group of students were sitting around their small basementapartment, while down a long flight of stairs and outside the door, a sign bathed in blue light callsattention to the place as the Mole Hole. As the story was revealed to this columnist, there came aknock on the door, and when it was answered, there stood a number of high school students. One ofthese dungaree- clad youths stepped up and said, "Hey, Man, do you serve coffee here?" "Coffee?"came the retort, "what do you mean?" "Isn't this an Espresso coffee house?" asked the Youth with anair of indignation. It seems that all of Bellingham High School has been looking for the 'Mole Hole' forsome time now. Someone has been passing the word about a 'coffee house' of this name somewhere inBellingham. This writer can see in the future a Mole Hole making tuition costs for its occupants. Thetalk of change is not too apparent to this columnist as he threads his weary way to and from classes. Of all the modern equipment conceived by man to make man's work lighter, the grounds keepers seemto be in the dark ages. They still pick up leaves with a hand rake when a lawn sweeper would cut theirlabor appreciatively and leave about four men for other tasks about our campus, such as clearing theWater Buffaloes off the 21st street parking lot. For the next problem this writer will lay the blame onthe freshman and transfer students. I can't understand why it is Western's luck to acquire thesesloppy people who call themselves college students and adults. The reason I lay the blame here is this:last year, in our old "Postage Stamp" lounge, it was considered almost a sin to leave a coffee-stainedcup or a catsup-smeared plate on a table that someone would be using next hour. The WorshippersAsked Why . . . In the beginning there was the god. There followed the priests, and after them theworshippers. The College catalog states that class attendance at Western is "compulsory." Westernprofessors will explain this item in one of the following ways: 1. It is necessary to attend class regularlyto benefit from the course. 2. Veterans must attend classes to receive their GI benefits. 3. It is like having someone work for you. If he is one of the many and shows up only once a week with his work done, youdon't notice him much and you don't tend to give him much consideration when everyone else has beenaround all the time. No. 1 is logical in most cases, No. 2 is the law, and No. 3 is a very human andunderstandable explanation. The really frustrating one, however, is No. 4. It goes like this: "You mustattend class because the College catalog says so." This would be fine if the College catalog were notconsidered a sort of holy book, some of the faculty priests, and many students worshippers, because inthis system the priests always refer to the holy book and no questions are expected. I t would be fine,too, if some instructors did not base grades on attendance over work performedâ€”always citing theCollege catalog. Sometimes we wonder. When was the holy book written? Many instructors do notcare if one ever attends class. They tell him they will judge him on his performance. If he thinks he canlearn without benefit of their assistance, they are willing to let him prove it. These are usually the peoplewhose classes it is necessary to attend to learn. Fortunately they are in considerable number, and thereare also many classes where attendance is obviously necessary and the courses and words of theinstructors are too valuable to miss. Unfortunately, there are also a great number of courses extremely uninterestingly presented, poorly organized and good places to sleep. These are often the classes wheregrades are based on attendance, and where the instructor gives answer No. 4. Now, perhaps, this wholediscussion is picayunish and we should all follow the rules and live happily ever after. But we thought wehave seen Western emerging from the cocoon of rules that act as props for poor courses and lazyinstructors, or ones who have never questioned the book. In a community of scholars, or a world of ideas,it seems somewhat of an insult to have rules that are really not necessary, that one can follow throughcommon sense. At any rate, when everything is being considered in the College's new self-evaluation, itmight be interesting to take a look at the holy book. Long ago there may have been a god that fittedthose times, but wouldn't it be something if the priests wondered a little about the passages they're still quoting, and if a worshipper weren't simply shot for asking that horrible question: Why? There is anunivritten law at Western, whether you know it or not, that when a person has a rwb of coffee, he puts itin the tray rack when finished with it. (Conform or I will stab you with my poison pen!) Our Historydepartment, still reeling from the shock of having a student knock the pedestal out from under them, aretrying to build themselves back up by striking out at the freedom of student expression. There is evena student who, altho not a history major, is writing a letter to the Editor showing just how hard sometoes were stepped on. Don't you agree that even if the history department is the so-called best, it couldstand some improvement?

By KEITH ALLEN Shortly afterfour on Monday afternoon a handful of people stood around joking while others arranged chairs andpoured themselves coffee. At precisely 4:18 Dr. James L. Jarrett arrived and was poured a cup ofcoffee. While he sat down and lit a cigarette, the group waiting outside came in hesitantly and seatedthemselves in the SUB Conference Room. Collegian editor Robertson began speaking as moderator and the first student press conference with president James Jarrett was under way. Robertson beganwith questions written by the group beforehand and Dr. Jarrett answered. He first discussed theHonors Program and, as throughout his answers, more or less confirmed the opinion he had expressedin his earlier addresses. He stated that the Honors Program would possibly be in use in less than twoyears at Western. No response was made to a request for questions from the floor. Though most were a little tense at the beginning, those present began to relax as the president answered their querries.Another typically loaded question was asked, and again another. All eyes were on Dr. Jarrett as hepaused, listened to the next question, and went on. Another person silently came in and sat down. If onelistened closely during a pause, he could hear the fan, as it hummed and blew the suspended lights, aswell as the dish-ncise and murmur of those in the coffee shop. 'We Don't Need Chssring Thcrjsands' "Idid say we were not a football college," Jarrett said in answer to a question on athletics. "An addition tothe gym is fine and good, but . . . it is not to take any precedence over academic additions." One couldsense others were starting to relax. "We don't need to win every football game," he went on. "We do notwant or need cheering thousands at our sports events." Robertson continued reading each question."Vocational journalism is not taught because it is not an academic course," came the president's reply to another. "Those going into school newspaper advising may learn the technicalities of the field with thecourses available." Beyond that, he went on, students can attend trade schools. The 23 in attendancestirred as the first question came from them unwritten. Dr. Jarrett stated that the student should do his part in reaching the goals he aims for and not leave it up to the work of his instructors. The 'SimpleMinded' Student The sounds of pens on paper filled the room. The concluding discussion brought outthe improbabilities of a "simple-minded" student receiving a degree at Western. Admissionrequirements were mentioned. At 5:20 Dr. Jarrett mentioned the fact that more and more might beattending these weekly scheduled conferences open to all students, and that perhaps more activediscussion would take place. The first conference was finished and several helped themselves to thecoffee. President Jarrett rose and talked with Robertson. "I didn't notice the time," he said. No one elsehad, either. INTERViW The Governor at 2 a.m. With the clinking of spoons on coffee cups setting thescene, it was almost as unusual as it was unexpected. In the background a 2-star general and a groupof the governor's friends sat discussing policies and politics over a late meal, while Washington State'schief executive himself sat down with a group of Western Washington College students for a spur-of-the- moment interview over a cup of coffee. "I have just finished helping inaugurate a good man forWestern," Governor Albert D. Rosellini told two editors of the Collegian Saturday night as he satdown with them in the dining Signing autographs for students INAUGURAL PROCESSION And then,there was silence room of Bellingham's Royal Cafe. "Dr. Jarrett appears to be a liberal-minded man and I like that because I'm a liberal, too. "What do you students think of the president?" Rosellini asked andwas quickly launched into a discussion of the state, education and politics that lasted over an hour andled to talks with students that took in the whole evening. Should Education Blossom Out? "Thequestion now is v.hether we should allow our colleges of education to blossom out or remain in theirpresent status," the Governor said. "I have appointed a committee that is looking into education fromtop to bottom. We November 7, 1959 WESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAN Paqe 7 ---------- Collegian - 1959 November 7 - Page 8 ---------- need more and more teachers. If we are going to meet the challenge of the world today, we will have todo it through education, not arms." Originally joining Collegian editors Robertson and Bob Stevenson and three other Western students to answer questions, the Governor's night turned into a meeting withnearly 20 Western students, and covered the whole field of politics. "We have an educational systemthat ranks fifth in the nation; that doesn't mean it shouldn't be improved. One of the things our schoolsystem needs is morev guidance people. We should find out what a student is best suited for and helphim get into that field." Does this mean we should have more quantity of education or more quality? theeditor asked. "Both," Ros-ellini answered, stating that everyone should have the opportunity ofeducation, but that there were people who belong in college and people who do not. "This is whatguidance would find out. I think we should educate all people who are susceptible to education." 'IHave Never Interfered' Asked whether his appointments to college boards of trustees were trying to hiremore liberal arts men for presidencies of education colleges, he said he did not know this was actuallyso. "I have appointed men to all five institutions, however, and I have never interfered with theirappointments. I don't expect to." On the question of federal aid Ros-ellini was emphatic. "We need all we can get and it must come with local control maintained. We are going to have federal aid if we are going to meet the challenges of education today." With questions soon being fired from numbers ofstudents who joined the Collegian delegation the governor gave his ideas on other issues: "Foreignlanguages are very important in our curricula. They are the only real way for us to know other people of the world, their problems, cultures and ideas. I am very much in favor of expansion of languageprograms in our schools," he told Gerhard Langer, president of Western's German club. "TheSeattle Times has very good reason to try and see that I am politically destroyed by creating anissue over the state liquor board. But you will soon see affidavits and statements to show why theTimes is carrying on such a crusade," he told a political science major. A Completely New PolicyGranting the Collegian a final question before leaving Bellingham, the governor answered by announcing a "completely new policy." "Next session you will see, for the first time in the history of the state ofWashington, a governor presenting a budget message to the Legislature . . . I will have my ownbudgetary commission and requests for money will have a complete analysis and hearing. I don't knowspecifically what I can do about your college's request for funds for more library facilities. Of course,Western is not the only college in the state asking for money." Still, what of the fate of the Westernlibrary? "All we can do is take a good look at it and see what we can do. But I believe it is theresponsibility of a governor to look such things over and recommend. I will make a recommendation. Itwas 2 a.m. before Rosellini finished. 'I've Been Worked Over Before' It was a new look at a state official who sat down with students and talked openly, though it was obvious that no earth - shakingannouncements were made and the governor knew how to gather votes. After Rosellini was asked by ayoung Republican to sign a cocktail napkin so he could remember the time and place the end of theconference set the highlight. "May you quote me on everything? Certainly. I've been worked over bynewspapers before." It was almost as startling as being thrown out of the Faculty Council. HÂ®NÂ©RSPR96RAM The Severest Taskmaster The possession of a superior intellect carries with it the duty to put it to use as much as possible, according to Western's associate professor of economics Erwin S.Mayer. For this reason Western Washington is working on forming an Honors program dedicated to thesuperior student. "We are determined to be in the forefront in this state in forming an Honors program,"Dr. Mayer stated as head of the Honors program committee. He went on to say that too many of thehighly capable students find nothing challenging in their regular courses and thus fail to do the work."For these students the work is easy and they goof off if they're not challenged." Honors programs areinstituted to meet the special needs and develop the special gifts of intelligent students. Those selectedfor the program, expected to be in operation at the freshman level next spring, will be given certainprivileges and be obliged to accept other responsibilities. When they are allowed to by-pass the easier courses which they would coast through, they will have to work that much harder in the courses they do take. They will be allowed to avoid many of the themes, quizzes and term papers that seem to hinderthem and in turn be expected to work independently and become, as the committee states, "their own severest taskmasters." It has been found that these systems provide a tremendous stimulus forfaculty as well as the entire student body, along with the Honors students. "There are excitingpossibilities here," Dr. Mayer concluded, "We look forward with great interest to seeing our program,which is largely in the planning stage, get under way." INAUGURATION 'We Need a Lusty Vice' ByKAREN BAINTER "The devil's cloud has a toadstool shape and what he may carry away is not a singleperson, nor a single community, but an entire race . . ." A. Earle Birney, Professor of Eng. lish at theUniversity of British Columbia injected this sobering thought into an audience of students, townspeople, and faculty during a seminar on humanities last Thursday. It was only one of many sobering butsometimes too true, and horrifyingly real, thoughts and ideas versed during the three inaugural sessions. One result of the humanities seminar, "The Changing Face of Hubris," was the introduction of Hubrisinto the vocabulary of many in the audience who hadn't heard of the word before. Hubris is a wordpilfered from the Greeks and denotes a scornful pride or an insolent disregard of moral laws andrestraint. Tracing the origins of Hubris in Greek drama, the first speaker, Thomas Rosenmeyer,Associate Processor of Classics at the University of Washington, then delved into man's recurringhabits of competing with God and interpreting God in ways that further selfish causes. The beginnings ofman's belief in infinite powers that started with the caveman's doodlings on his cave wal!s and evolvedalong with our hubristic pride to modern day human concepts of God, was one of the chains of thought in the lecture of Herbert Muller, Professor of English and Government at Indiana University. Page 8WESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAN November 7, 1959 ---------- Collegian - 1959 November 7 - Page 9 ---------- Muller, who doesn't like the word "reacts" because it reminds him of the twitching of frog's legs, definedthe face of Hubris as "an automobile with fins." He compared our civilization, which moralists rant andrave about, with the mass corruption, cruelty, and barbarism of the middle ages and said, "Nowadayswe look tame . . . we need a good honest lusty vice." He talked of the peasant masses who've toiled allthrough history, he discussed conformism, then conjured up and tore down an image of a brave newworld of the future. Speaking next, U.B.C.'s Dr. Birney took the podium and warned, "The evidence of the past is that civilization falls . . . ancient prides must go or ancient furies will consume . . . democracyis best for developing creativity . . . but there are democracies and there are democracies and not even the best is worth saving at the cost of the human race." He talked earnestly of the hopelessness ofIndia, where every victory is a defeat, and which can only be saved by the concentrated efforts of all themajor countries of the world. Talking of prejudices, and the failure of the nations of the world to educatetheir young in unity, Birney climaxed the session by putting us in the role of Pandora trying to get the lid back onto the box. "There is no safe dose of radiation." Grayhaired and serious, A. H. Sturte-vant,professor of Genetics, at the California Institute of Technology talked slowly as his presentation opened Thursday night's science seminar. He said we are all exposed to some radiation through elements inthe soil, cosmic rays, medical X-rays, and fallout which doesn't do much harm. But the after-effects ofexcessive radiation can range from malignant growths in the person concerned, to mutations in thedecendants of the affected. Speaking next, Frederick Thieme, the Provost at the University ofWashington, went into the need for new methods to solve the unanswered questions of man's origin."We are as we are, because of what we were," Thieme declared, then discussed a variety of topicsfrom prehistoric blue-green algae, to bone residues, to the use of radioactivity in determining theage of fossils. Discussion of the changes which must take place in education during the next 10 yearswas the format of the final session "Education 1975." One obviously bitter educator, stressing theneed for revised state taxes, denounced the Washington tax structure as such: "The most fiendish tax system that could be devised couldn't match the state of Washington." They looked back over thiscountry's educational changes and prophesied 'Nowadays We Look Tame A. H. STURTEVANT H. J.MULLER Here discussing "Education in 1975" is T. R. McConnell, University of California, Louis Bruno,Pullman, Washington Superintendent of schools, J. Alan Ross, Western Washington College, andPaul D. Woodring, Western Psychology Professor on leave to the Ford Foundation. A. Earl Birney of the University of British Columbia is shewn after he discussed "The New Hubris" in the Humanities Session"The Changing Face of Hubris." November 7, 1959 WESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAN Page 9 ---------- Collegian - 1959 November 7 - Page 10 ---------- on the future. Along with the usual forecast of special classes for the gifted, advanced by ability not age,and the improvement of wider use of educational T.V. came the idea of "team" teaching. A "team" wouldbe responsible for 100 or so students in a broad field and would consist of one master teacher, one ortwo other fully certified teachers, an intern teacher, and a couple of skilled community members.Talking on the subject of public schools was Louis Bruno, Superintendent of Schools in Pullman,Washington, while the American school system as a whole was handled by Paul Wood-ring ofWestern who is on leave to the Ford Foundation. College education was discussed by T. R. McConnell,from the University of California, who stressed the need for a greater variety in types of colleges to fitthe types of students so as much time won't be wasted on subjects students don't need for their ownindividual educations. Then there was silence. The auditorium was quiet and empty again until theinauguration which unfolded that afternoon, and the thoughts left behind v/ere digested and afcsorbed bythose who had the facilities to digest them. BOESE CONCERT Dull and Without Life By STACYTUCKER Somewhat of a task lies ahead of an organist who is to perform upon a strange organ. Theorgan has not reached the degree of standardization that other instruments such as the piano haveattained and while all organs conform to certain general specifications, they also differ considerably, one from the other. For this reason, most organists will not even attempt to give a concert before anaudience until they have been at least an hour in acquainting themselves with the specific instrumentupon which they are to perform. Considering these facts, however, this reviewer still does not findreason enough to excuse the mediocre quality of last week's organ recital by Raymond Boese. Hislecture "demonstration" at ten o'clock was without life and was found dull even by some music majors.He read the bulk of his talk in a mechanical manner which did not add to its already research paperquality. The reception was cancelled, thus giving no opportunity to talk with Boese. The performancewas good in spots and passable on the whole. This reviewer has not, however, heard positivecomments on it by anyone to speak of, music majors included. (Not that any remarks by musicmajors would tend to altar the content of this criticism. STUDENT UNION Dedication Set . . . UnionBoard Chairman Jack Ra-bourn has informed the Collegian that November 30 to December 6, will be setaside for dedication of the Student Union Building. Bob Poldervart, member of the Union Board, ischairman of the week's events. The initial event will be a reception in which the many potential uses ofthe building will be unfolded before a limited invited audience. Later in the week the lounge area will bededicated, an open house for the students will culminate the week's events on December 6. TheBoard plans to have art exhibits, recitals, and cofee hours in the building in the near future. Achildren's art exhibit will be held in November, according to Rabourn. RAYMOND BOESE, ORGANISTThe bulk of his talk in a mechanical manner WILD DUCK Through a Skylight . . . Daylight, dawn,duskâ€”the hours of the sun will be portrayed through a skylight. Angling over the stage during thecoming production of Ibsen's Wild Duck, will be something new on Western's stage; a skylight designedby technical director, Mark Flanders. Using antique furniture and combining his staging efforts withTom Aston, assistant technical director and Sue Weidman, light operator, Flanders hopes to create arealistic atmosphere for the soon-to-be-produced play. Also aiming at authenticity are the twostudents who are taking over the costume department. Betty Sue Ritchie, a senior business educationmajor, and Carol Erchinger, a junior majoring in home economics and minoring in art, have redesignedten women's costumes for the play and are now engaged in the actual sewing of them. The girls found agoldmine of dresses and furniturs in a closet belonging to Miss Erchinger's grandmother, the late Mrs.Margaret Grant of Bellingham, and a number of these articles have been donated for use in theproduction. As the various departments organize and work, plans for the "Wild Duck" take shape.Costumes, staging, lighting; these are all part of production preliminaries underway as once again allthe strings are being tied to a swift schedule for the production of another Western drama presentation.Page 10 WESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAN November 7, 1959 ---------- Collegian - 1959 November 7 - Page 11 ---------- ASB PRESIDENCY Success and Rock Hunter By LIZ SUNDSTROM You elected himâ€”now what?Last week 426 Western students swayed by the argument, "Experience is the best teacher" supported Bob Gustavson for the ASB presidency. What can these students expect from his administration?What has experience taught Bob Gustavson? Questioned about his plans for this year, Gustavsonreadily discussed several projects he has in mind. "We are operating on a delcit budget at thepresent time, due to the overspending of several departments." (See Collegian, October 23, 1959.) Inhopes of curtailing unnecessary extravagance, Gustavson plans to scrutinize carefully all ASBexpenditures. Although this action probably won't solve the problem immediately, it should reduce costsgreatly. Gustavson also intends to revise the present administrative system to supply a more uniformprogram for student government. In the past, each new administration has brought abrupt changesin policy. As a result, incompleted projects have been dropped, and good ideas abandoned.Gustavson feels that these s u d d en changes are a waste of the student-body's time, money, andenergies. To increase operational efficiency, he will keep thorough records of all student body activities.Gustavson plans to set up a conduct calendar advising students on proper behavior and apparel forvarious occasions. Many students attend school events dressed inappropriately and seem oblivious to the use of common courtesy at functions such as the A-L assemblies, he said. His primary goal for theyear is to make student government an increasingly "interesting, worthwhile, and rewardingexperience for students." Hoping to encourage more student participation and to dispel the feeling of"complacency and lack of interest which many students have toward school activities," BobGustavson, former acting chairman, now enthroned with an official gavel, set out on the path toshowing whether success would be spoiled by Rock Hunter. In a new twist Rock Hunter would be thestudent body. BOB GUSTAVSON Elected â€” Now What? LEGISLATURE 'Buttons' a Strong Fourth At the lengthy meeting of the Legislature held last Wednesday in the Coffee Shop, it was the final orderof business that highlighted the meeting. A proposal was brought before the board for Finance Chairman Jerry Baker and Dr. Byron Haglund, professor of economics, to conduct research on the budgets ofpast years in order to discover present trends. It was suggested that said research could result in saving the school ten to 15 thousand dollars per year from its annual budget. It was moved that they do so.With Bob Gustavson officially seated it was time for permanent cabinet positions to be filled. Gustavsonpresented the names of Don Bevis, Norma Rice and Karen Brumstrom as possibilities for theJudicial Board. After discussion they were accepted. Miss Sharon Belchschmidt (is that right Sharon?)was suggested by the president for Opinion Board Chairman. Before her acceptance, Robinson madea motion that in the future ALL candidates MUST come to the meeting or send an informative letter to the Legislature describing their qualifications. Elections Chairman Roc Caldwell reported on the ASBpresidential election. Ballet totals were Gustavsonâ€” 436 votes, "Doc" Moodyâ€”213, DonAlderâ€”114, and "Buttons" a strong fourth with 41 votes. Seven other ballots were cast for suchfavorite sons as Al red E. Neuman and Al Jung. Ray Knabe presented his report on leftover facilities from the old Lounge. After he listed the items, it was suggested the Union Board Chairman Jack Rabournlook over the list and pick out what could be used. Rabourn suggested that remaining chesterfields and chairs could be used at the Lakewood property. Rabourn also asked for and received $585 to purchasea Wurlitzer piano to be used in the music lounge of the building. He also announced that $421.73remained from the summer budget. Dr. Murray moved that the sum be reverted to budget control.Collegian Editor Robertson made his report on Collegian finances. According to his figures themagazine is within its budget. Clayton Hood, who played his last football game in 1954, has finally teenawarded his blanket. COFFEE HOUR Prelude to Wild Duck "The most challenging of Ibsen'sdramas"â€”these were the words with which Dr. William Gregory, director, referred to the forthcomingproduction of The Wild Duck. This statement may be a topic of controversy November 12 as theStudent Union conference room is once again opened to a distinguished visitor, Professor SverreArestad, a former Western student, now head of the department of Scandinavian Language andLiterature at the University of Washington, who will give a brie? analysis of the play and then answerquestions and act as discussion moderator. The meeting will be held at 3 p.m. and is open to students,faculty and townspeople. Dr. Arestad, a nationally recognized authority in his field, is the first speakerever presented here as the prelude to a production, but according to Dr. Gregory "we hope to make thisa general practice if at all possible." He strongly urged the attendance of all those interested in thedrama and went on to express this opinion of the play: "a combination of comedy, sometimes borderingon slapstick, and stark tragedy.

Central Washington, currently tied forthe Evergreen Conference number one spot, provides the opposition this afternoon for the fast risingVikings. Victorious in its last two games, Western is all set to knock the Wildcats off their lofty perch. In comparing the conference records of the two clubs Central would rate as the favorites. But Central'srecord is deceiving since they have dropped three non-conference games to give them a total of three wins and four losses. The Vikings' solid forward wall has been the main reason the opposition has scored only thirteen points in the last three games. Outweighed by at least thirty pounds per man, Westernoutcharged and outplayed UBC last week while the week before they stopped Pacific Lutheran almostcompletely. Offensively there has been 100% improvement in the last two games. The biggestimprovement has been in the passing game, shown by Doug Ringenbach and Steve Hansen's combinedtotal of 185 yards against UBC. In the rushing department Ron Ladines and Sam Martin have carried theball for 283 and 201 yards respectively this season. Len Gargarello is the top pass receiver with fivecatches for 141 yards. Ladines leads the scorers with 24 points followed by Hansen with 13. A bigsurprise for the Vikings in their last two games has been the tremendous play of freshman halfbackJack Halliday. Against Pacific Lutheran. Halliday intercepted two passes and in last week's UBC game he picked off three Thunderbird aerials setting up one Western touchdown. With the tremendous spirit, builtup around Homecoming, the Vikings will have no trouble being up for this game and the final score shouldread WESTERN 27, CENTRAL 6. SHORTS ON SPORTS . . .

Showing theirmost potent offensive display of the season, Western's vastly improved eleven roared to a 20-3 victoryover UBC's highly rated Thunderbirds last Saturday on the Canadian campus. The Viks collectednearly 350 yards on total offense and had at least 100 more called back on penalties. To top things offthey intercepted six Thunderbird aerials. Steve Hansen and Doug Ringenbach led the Western attackwith 131 and 114 yards respectively. Hansen collected 96 by passing and 35 on the ground whileRingenbach threw for 89 and gained 25 running. Ron La-dines remained as the Viks' top scorer as headded two touchdowns to his total. He got one on a 25 yard pass from Hansen and the other on a oneyard plunge. Len Gargarello scored the other six pointer on a 40 yard toss from Ringenbach. Westerntook the opening kickoff and marched 68 yards for their first score. The big play of the series was the 15-yard Ringenbach to Gargarello pass play that put the Viks on the UBC 25. Ladines got the score fromthe one, but Hansen missed his first kick of the season, leaving the Norsemen ahead 6-0. After anexchange of punts, Western drove to its second touchdown. With UBC on the Viking 26, Jack Hallidaypicked off a T-bird pass and returned it to the Thunderbird 40. It took just one play from there asRingenbach hit Gargarello for the score and Hansen added the PAT. In the third quarter, tackle FredKnapp recovered a UBC bobble on the Western 43 and the Viks rambled 57 yards for their third score.Hansen hit Ladines behind a screen and the big fullback drove into the end zone from the 25. Hansenagain added the PAT to close out the Vikings' scoring. The Thunderbirds' only points came in thesecond quarter when they picked up a 22 yard field goal. Bay and Champion RE 3-2610 WESTERNPLAYER a potent offensive display CO-CAPTAINS Hard Men to Replace Seniors Sam- Martin, JackSim, Ned Olson and Bill Burby have been named co-captains of the 1959 Western Washingtonfootball team. The first three all are four year lettermen, and Burby was a transfer who has lettered thepast two seasons. Martin has played right halfback in all of Coach John Kulbitski's four years atWestern. "Sam has been an outstanding ball carrier, pass receiver, and defensive halfback," stated Kul-bitski. "He'll be a hard man to replace." Martin, from Auburn, has also excelled in other sports atWestern. He has been one of the mainstays of Ray Ciszek's track squad the past three yearsâ€”he runs the high hurdles, low hurdles, the relay, broad jumps, high jumps, and throws the javelin. In hisfreshman and sophomore years, Martin, who stands 6'2" and weighs 180, was on the varsity basketballsquad. His athletic prowess was recognized last spring when he was voted by the students "Athlete ofthe Year." Like Martin, Sim, a rugged 6'2", 210 lbs., has been a regular under Kulbit-ski for four seasons. Not only does the Victoria athlete stand out as an offensive center, but he is feared by opposingteams for his linebacking ability. Sim, like Martin, has been named honorable mention all-conferencethe past two seasons. Last year the players elected easy-going Jack the "Most Inspirational Player."Olson, who hails from Spokane, has put in a lot of time the past four seasons as one of Kulbitski's finest tackles. "Ollie," who stands 5'11" and scales 200 pounds, loves to open holes in the offensive line for the Viking backs. He has proven his versatility by also playing center when needed. (Ned was offensivecenter for the first game last season when Sim was out with leg boils.). Burby, whose home is in Butte,Montana, is the only single man among the four co-captains. Bill was merely a reserve end at the start of last season, but his hustle and determination soon found him a position as starting offensive guard.Burby, who is 510" and 185, has been one of the outstanding lineman in the Evergreen Conference thisyear not only on offense, but also on defense.

Some of these ideas Dr. Haggardexpressed earlier to the Collegian this week. "The first thought I have is that I wish to extend bestwishes to my successor in the solution of the problems incident to growth during the years ahead."Then would come the ideas and ideals based upon twenty years of administration in the College's toppost . . . and based upon an entire career in education. He would be concerned with the responsibility oftraining teachers. "This College is preparing," One never ceases to learn and thus his education willcontinue throughout his life. It is truly the commencement for the sincere, capable person. This is adifferent person from he who is going to college just to get through." "The prospective teacher who is atWestern," explains the President "should be here because of the quality of our teacher educationprogram. For others it would be for the Arts and Sciences courses, the two years of junior college, andthe extensiveness of our programâ€” which also allows one year of graduate work." Explaining hisown satisfactions during his administration, Dr. Haggard states that the growth of the College is thegreatest. He means the expansion of the College program, the physical improvements to the campus,and the increased student enrollment. He is especially pleased with the number of students whohave graduated with teaching degrees from 1949 to 1958. They stand this way: Western 2852 U. of W.2847 Next highest: some 300 lower.

With these words to her 15- membercommittee of the whole, chairman Pat Xelly launched the1959 WUS campaign on the Western campxis. The comhiit-tee quickly moved to the following decisions: â€¢ Goal of the drive will be $1,500. â€¢Slogan is to be "That learning may not die." BUT THERE-ARE more basic issues than these.Questions like "what is WUS?" "Why does it exist?" "What can I do to help?" These are the questionswe asked Miss Kelly. 'Well," the pert chairman began," WUS' is an international free world agencywhich is \ mainly supported by contributions from students." "IF EVERY STUDENT at Westernwould contribute 50c we would meet our goal. That price may be just the price of a lunch for you, but toa foreign student it may mean the opportunity to begin or continue study. "This is truly a worthwhileinvestment in humanity." Scanning the WUS leaflets, Miss Kelly pointed to a $550, 000 program thisyear to provide scholarships for refugee students, (including Algerians) in France, Germany, Sweden,Switzerland and Britain. IN ADDITION, WUS will be especially interested in A f r i c an scholars. Amajor university in South Africa is closed to African Negroes; noted regional WUS director GladysLawther said in her fall visit to the College, "some African cities the size of Belling-ham have only onedoctor." Mrs. Lawther went into debt to make a trip on her own around the world, during which time shevisited many WUS projects. "One of the things that Mrs. Lawther told us was that there are 2,000known student tubercular cases in Japan." "WE HAVE THE advantage of good health," continuedMiss Kelly, "and take many things for granted â€”like having a place to live and having books forclasses. Others do not begin to have our advantages. In one place in India, for example, students haveto walk 50 miles to school. WUS would like to build a youth hostel there. "If we would need furtherreason to be interested in the other students of the world, I can quote the WUS sponsors. They contendthat civilization is a race between education and catastrophe," Miss Kelly Said- By PAT PALMERFLIGHT FROM THE burning city of Belgrade, escape from Yugoslavia in a twenty-foot sardine boat,injury by the Germansâ€”these constitute only a few of the war experiences of Robert St. John, well-known newspaper correspondent.

Erik Low, Prime Minister of S.A., has accused Robert St. John along with John Gunther and Alan Paton as the three men most responsible for South Africa's bad Toward the end of 1957, St-John returned to Africa to report on the self-government in Ghana. He views Ghana as "the land ofhope," in contrast to South Africa, "the land of fear." ON THE SCENE to see the first bombs of WorldWar II falling, St. John reported news from Eastern Europe where he was surrounded by death anddestruction on all sides. The story of his war adventures are related in "From the Land of the SilentPeople," which has been hailed as "the best book to come out of World War II." A SHORT TIME laterthis war correspondent was once again in the center of a trouble spot. The new state of Isreal had justbeen created . . . this creation resulted in violent riots and battles between Isreali and Arab soldiers,which attracted world-wide attention. St. John remained in the Middle East for many months,covering the explosions and periods of uncertain peace.

One of the major problems in lighting is working out a light plot that will be effective on theWestern stage and still be simple enough to adapt to the stages of other schools when the play is ontour. ADJUSTING THE WHOLE SET to fit another school's stage, will be another problem for the stagecrew. Skagit Valley College, especially will present this change. The whole set will have to bereadjusted before the play can be presented there. For that reason, an extra performance, using the setfor SVC, will be given March 6 on Western's stage, for high school students only.

Phone RE 3-6870 Magnolia Commercial ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1959 February 20 - Page 3 ---------- February 20, 1959 WESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAN Page 3 Field day at the Legislature:Amending the Amendments. BY LYLE PRICE AFTER HEARING ITS SPECIAL COMMITTEE report,Western's student legislators thought for a while Wednesday that they had gotten those proposedconstitutional amendments out of the way. But they were wrong. After the report was heardWednesday, Legislator Bruce Hannaford quickly moved that the committee's three recommendationsbe adopted. The recommendation would also rescind the Legislature's action of January 21 pertainingto amendments. But after picking up a second, the motion ran into trouble in the form of muchdiscussion, if not outright opposition. ONE POINT AT ISSUE WAS ELIGIBILITY requirements forAssociated Student Body offices. When asked at what exact moment the requirements would belevied, Hannaford offered the interpretation that a candidate (for instance, for ASB President) could win election to the office although he might not fulfill the requirements at the time of election. This wouldhold, said Hannaford, if he were eligible by the time he took office. ; Dave Amos and Dr. MoyleCederstrom, adviser, held that the recommendations as stated were ambiguous. At this pointRabourn moved to add to the Hannaford motion by inserting clarifying phrases in the three amendmentrecommendations. He also moved to add a fourth amendment. The. addition would require a candidatefor most ASB offices to be eligible at the time he applied The exceptions in ASB positions would beLegislative and judicial. Rabourn's added proposal would have Legislative eligibility included. "Is thisprecisely the opposite of what you originally meant?" Dr. Cederstrom asked of Hannaford. The graduatestudent nodded his head in agreement. "Why," asked Legislator Leo Dodd, "is it the opposite?" Doddhad seconded the Rabourn addition to the main motion. HANNAFORD THEN POINTED OUT that acommittee of five legislators had made the recommendations and that Rabourn had not only been amember of the committee, but had voted in favor of the recommendation. Rabourn countered, that hefelt clarification and improvements should be made even if thought of tardily. RABOURN'S MOVE wouldseem to do more than change just the time element. It would state literally, for instance, "to be eligible for the election to the office of Legislator, a student must have completed at least two quarters ofresident work at WWCE." Currently change and interpretation would literally mean that a write-incandidate could not be eligible to be a Legislator unless he fulfilled requirements. As Dr. Cederstrom once implied, a write-in candidate does not apply and hence escapes all requirements of one whoapplies â€”at least in a high school which he recalls once elected the waitress down the street as Queen of the Senior Prom. The matter of recommendations and amendments was not resolved, and theLegislature unanimously voted to shuffle back the report to the committee.

TYING FOR THIRD place with four wins and two losses, was Western's senior debate team, Pat Mar-the italics read "to apply." This were second among 20schools in US Could Have Had Satellite Orbited in 1956, Ley Reports By DICK PERRY "IF PROJECTORBITER had heen left alone, the United States would have put a satellite into orbit by 1956." Project Orbiter was the joint Army- Navy satellite program of this country started in 1954 and which was shelved in 1955 for Project Vanguard. s This move, according to scientist Willy Ley, last Tuesday's Artistsand Lecturers speaker, was a prime reason why Russia beat the United States in putting the first Iman-made satellite into orbit in 1957. LEY, IN HIS TALK "Conquest of Space," predicted that within fiveyears we will send a manned vehicle into orbit, and man will travel around the moon without landingthere and return to earth. He also said that within this same period we will be taking "shots" at ourneighboring planets, Mars and Venus. "Most p e o p l e , " Ley said, "agree that the Space Age began when Sputnik I was sent into orbit, October 4, 1957." He then referred to this as "year 2" of the SpaceAge. HE WENT ON TO SAY, however, that the basic concept for a man-made orbiting satellite datesback to the 17th century and Sir Issac Newton. Newton theorized that if an object could attain a velocityof five miles per second in a horizontal path with the earth, it would remain in orbit around the earth."But this had to remain a theory Save with our CASH AND CARRY DISCOUNT Vienna Cleaners 206 E.Magnolia 1-DAY SHIRT SERVICE Phone REgent 4-7620 for sometime." Ley said. It wasn't until thestart of the 20th century that scientists began to wonder if rockets could be made to attain suchvelocities. By 1911 the idea of "stagging" was patented by two scientists. From this our idea of a 3-stage rocket developed. Work began in earnest in 1948, and in February, 1949, the first man-madeobject was hurled into empty space by this country. After Project Vanguard failed to put a satellite intoorbit in December, 1957, Ley said, "'Orbiter' was quietly revived and called 'Jupiter C." On January 31, 1958, "Explorer I" was put into orbit. ON THE QUESTION, "What are we going to see this year?" hesaid that there are two groups working on various projects. One, a civilian group, will take eight or more"shots" this year. These will include a plastic-aluminum balloon which will inflate after it goes intoorbit. It will be 100 feet in diameter, be very visible, and may have navigational value. THE OTHERGROUP, a contingent of scientists working -for the military, will also take several "shots," includingone at the moon comparable to the recent Russian "moon" rocket. with no previous speechexperience.) KNOCKED OUT OF first place by a small margin of three points, Western placed secondonly to the University of Oregon. (The sweepstakes scores are based on the total amount of pointseach school gains through its squad members.) Individual trophy winners are Miss Marcinkiewicz, asophomore, who took a first place in junior women's extemporaneous speaking and first in discussion, and a second place in junior women's impromptu speaking; Bowman, a senior, who brought backtrophies for first place in junior men's extemporaneous speaking, a second place in j u n i o r men'sextemporaneous speaking and a second in discussion; and Nichols, a junior, who placed second injunior intercollegiate cinkiewicz and Bob Gustavson, a senior.

For an inexpensive, good usedcar, see one of the 5-H's at Hanson - Hatuh 1205 Commercial the Lutes, and lost 74-64 to theWildcats. PLC racked up their 35th straight Conference victory in the contest last Thursday, as thescoring of Chuck Curtis, Jim VanBeek and Roger Iverson was too much for the Norsemen to handle. The contest was close throughout the first half however, as Western held within three points of theirtalented opponents. The Lutes came storming out for the second half and promptly ran away with thegame as - Western found trouble in hit ting the hoop. In one six minute period, the Norsemen got only a single point, while Iverson alone potted 14 in about the same amount of time. IVERSON'S 22COUNTERS were high for the contest, followed by Curtis with 20 and VanBeek with 18. Western's topguns were Bay Kycek who collected 17 points and 19 rebounds, and Nello Morganti who picked up 12.A 30 point effort by all- Conference forward Bill Coordes was too much for the Vikings as they lost theirsecond league test in a row. The Wildcats led from the opening tip off and the Norsemen committed 30personals in trying to get back into the game. Central took good advantage of the charity tosses as theyconnected for 30 out of 40. The Vikings out-scored their rugged opponents by five baskets as far as field goals were concerned. Western shot 27 for 66 and Central hit 22 for 55. Vlk Basketballers End Season This Weekend By DOUG SIMPSON A sport which has been practically neglected this year at Westernis swimming. Although the Viking mermen have had a disappointing season, they are improving steadily,and should do better in these last few weeks of the Evergreen Conference campaign. The Vikings are ayoung squad which has been gaining experience all year, and that will make a better accounting of itselfthe remainder of the season. Three important men have been added to the team, as Coach John Kulbitskiis looking toward the Conference meet March 6-7 at the College of Puget Sound. Letterman ColeComings has been out with an injured knee, but is ready to go, and should pick up points in the free style events. Al Coghill, another letterman, has not been able to participate thus far this year because hehas had to work. Coghill is also a free style specialist. The third newcomer is John Guberd, who has justbecome eligible. Kulbitski has had no one to enter in the butterfly, but now Guberd is on hand for theVikings in this event. The Vikings have two meets here at Western this weekend. This afternoon at 3:30p.m. they tangle with the Eastern Savages, and tomorrow at 11 a.m. are slated to meet Oregon StateCollege. Two weeks ago Western lost to Eastern, 57-25 at Cheney, but Coach Kulbitski points to the fact that all the events were close, and could have gone either way. Here at Western with more swimmersavailable, Kulbitski and Assistant Coach Chuck Stutz have high hopes of dropping the Savages. Although Coach Jack Hubbard's basketball squad has now dropped seven games,, the team is practically a shoe-in for the NAIA district playoffs which will be played March 2-4. Two teams from each side of themountains are selected to participate. Pacific Lutheran will be one selection from this side, and Westernlooks to be the other. Among other candidates, Seattle Pacific, St. Martins, College of Puget Sound, and the University of British Columbia have all been defeated by Western. From the other side, EasternWashington and either Gonzaga or Central Washington will probably be picked. Whitworth is also inthe running. Western's hoop team has dropped two straight conference games, and now has a dog fighton its hands to retain third place. Two victories this weekend are essential. Monday nighfs game withUBC is the last of Western's regular season campaign. Bill Wright and Nello Morganti have both beenslumping scoring-wise of late, but the two are still well in front of all other Vikings in this department.Wright has scored 206 points and Morganti 205, both for 11.4 averages. Ray Kycek and Windy Weldhave been the top point producers of late, but both of them are still below double figures. STOPPING THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST'S third leading scorer Ray Wilson and beating the second best team in theEvergreen Conference are the problems facing Jack Hubbard's basketballers this weekend. EasternWashington will furnish the opposition on Friday and Whitworth ends the Vikings' final weekend athome on Saturday. Western will have to win at least one Of the two games to insure a third-place finish. The Vikings are tentatively scheduled to meet Pacific Lutheran in the NAIA district playoffs. Thewinner of that game will play the winner of the Eastern Whitworth game. The winner of this match willrepresent the Northwest in the national tournament at Kansas City. WASHBURN HAS SCORED 478POINTS to average 21.7 points for the fourth-place Whitworth five. Another Whitworth player who hasshown well this year is Al Rolf, a 6-8 center. The Viks have beat the Whitman squad once this year, butthe boys from east of the mountains have improved considerably since the start of the season.Eastern handed the Viks a defeat earlier in the season and are currently riding in second place in theconference. Kent Mathison and Al Fackler have done the majority of Eastern's scoring this year.Western Rugby Squad Plays Here Tomorrow EAGER TO RESUME action after postponement of lastweek's game, Coach Joe Davies and his Western rngby team will pit their strength against the University of British Columbia Tomahawks tomorrow at 1:30 p. m. on Western's campus field. The Tomahawks,one of UBC's better rugby teams, will be out to break the Viking win streak and avenge the early season defeat of another UBC squad at the hands of the Western team. The Viks beat the UBC Chiefs in theseason opener. COACH DAVIES is trying to get more speed in the lineup and will revise his startingteam to give an opportunity to players who have been progressing well in practice. A mixup in scheduling caused the cancelling of last week's game between these two teams. Cancellation of the game wasreceived too late for rescheduling with another team. A home-and-home series will be scheduled witha Victoria, B. C, team at a later date. Davies has arranged for Herb Langman, an experienced rugbyplayer, to explain tomorrow's game to the spectators. - S A V E - Cash and Carry Discount Fine DryCleaning Expert Repairs and Alterations Free Minor Repairs Superior Cleaners 207 Chestnut 24-HOUR SERVICE On WEDDING INVITATIONS PRINTWS STATIONBtS PHONE REgent 4-6550 MowBcllinslum National Bank B.

It's Good Enough for the Daily "Student publicity 'flacks' wanted to know yesterday whytheir press 'releases' sometimes are not printed in the Daily. Professor William Ames, journalism facultymember and former Daily adviser, explained that there is a definite lack of time and space foreverything for print handed to the editors. He said the Daily has no particular like or dislike for thesepublicity releases, but he did think the paper should serve as a critic and watchdog of campus activityand student government rather than as a student information service."â€”This from the University ofWashington Daily. Hooray! Somebody has finally been brave enough to put it in print. These are burreasons, too. For student information service, there is the Daily Bulletin. The Collegian does its best tocover the campus, but we must be always aware of the majority of the students-what they are interestedin. And the Daily thinks it has problems. They are a four-to-six-to-eight, page _ DAILY;-;we, are the same weekly. So if your group of say, 23, .has not been, getting weekly coverage, why not move for the club toprint its own newspaper? We have enough trouble just fitting in a\\, the_things that EVERYONE ISINTERESTED IN. And if; we puf in everything we receive, we'd have few or no readersâ€”it would be thatboring. Some of us even think that the Collegian's purpose, to quote the Daily, is "more a critic andwatchdog of campus activity."-This from the W W Collegian. Judge Decrees Editor'Liar TO THECOLLEGIAN EDITOR: I wish to take Issue with a statement which appeared in the COLLEGIAN,February 13, 1959. The statement, at the bottom of column one on page five, read: "The decision hasbeen held up three weeks. Why? Chief Justice J. Speck says; he can't find the) procedures for-operating) the Court." Since ^ihis is not a true statement, it is in simpler terms, a lie. I would offer theseexplanations. First, Chief Justice Speck did not make the quoted statement. Second, the delay hasbeen because of an error in presenting the brief to the Board in accordance with the procedures foundin the October 31, 1958, copy of the COLLEGIAN, which is and has been on file in the COLLEGIANoffice. The whereabouts of the procedures have been known to all concerned for over two weeks and to the members of the Judicial Board since some time BEFORE their publication in the October 31 issueof the COLLEGIAN. My suggestions to the Editorial Staff of the COLLEGIAN are, first, if they wishinformation about the Judicial Board, they are free to consult me as Chairman of that Board. Second, ifthe staff is so desperate for material that it must think up lies to fill its pages, then a briefer publicationwould be in order.

DEAR EDITOR: Is the BOC (Ed.Note: It's now the Legislature) really doing what the majority of the students want? This letter is in regardto the front page editorial by Faith Hearsey in the January 30th edition of the Collegian concerningopposition to the extravagant spending of $2000 for the services of Les Elgart. It seems that the ASBpresident, in trying to Justify the spending of $2000 of ASB funds for a big name band for the JuniorProm, stated that the funds were "monies" which had not been budgeted for any specific purpose. This may be true but he failed to explain where the "monies" came from in the first place. Does the majorityof the student body know that this money comes put of their quarterly fees?

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

(Chuck Stutz Photo) O K I N G OVER Bindon and Jones'proposed Student Union plans before they leave for Salt Lake City, are Doug Smith and Dr. Merle Kuder. Smith, chairman of the Student Union Committee. In an interview yesterday, Doug Smith, who will berepresenting the student body, stated that it is possible that a likely candidate will return to Western with he and Dr. Kuder for recommendation of hiring. The conference, convening in Salt Lake City,March 31-April 4, is set up to include discussions of planning and managing student union buildings.W e s t e r n ' s representatives will be able to discuss tentative building plans with experiencedunion managers. As tentatively set up, the new staff member's main duty would be to co-ordinate thestudent co-cur-ricular program, excluding athletics.

After a delay of over three weeks, during which their request was debated and referred to committee twice for recommendation, the Forensic Department received$593 to take four people to the National Pi Kappa Delta Tournament in Brookings, South Dakota, duringApril 12-21. Finance Chairman Dave Van Bronkhorst pointed out that the department had spent only$1,347 of $1,869 budgeted. The $593 balance would be used for a forthcoming Montana Statetournament, but the group would need $593 more to attend the national tourney. "I know there are a lot of people who deserve to go a lot of places," member Gail Tuin-inga objected, "but I can't help butwonder if we're not over-allotting our budget. What good is this going to be to the entire studentbodyâ€”$600 of their money?" DR. KEITH MURRAY ANSWERED the question, stating that "thereare many instances where the caliber of an institution is gauged on the quality of its Forensic group.You may believe this or not," he added, "but the quality of a good deal of your college rating is based onwhat your Forensics does." The Board passed the appropriation. Dr. Merle Kuder requested to know ifthe Board was interested in giving help ($450 worth) in obtaining mechanical photo machines in orderto place photos on activity tickets. This would eliminate the use of student tickets by non-students, he explained by letter. The Board voted Dr. Kuder a "vote of confidence in his project." The Board also .. .

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

One of theitems on the agenda Wednesday was a request for $600 from the Forensics department for attendanceat 'the national Kappa Delta Pi conference this spring. One of the questions asked was what benefitswould be derived for the school from sending just four people to a speech convention. The answer wasprovided by Dr. Murray: the reputation of an institution like Western depends heavily upon the records of its f o r e n s i c department. Sounds funny, but it's true. When our forensics squads compete, andwin trophies, you gain by having attended a school that has a good record in forensics. As it was pointed out, the quality SPRING AT LAST AT WESTERN . . .

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

And firstbase would have been filled had COPYRIGHT 19S7 THE COCA-eOLA COMPANY George Hanson beenable to turn out.

Hubbard debuted in his baseball post last spring. His squad lost the division title by an 8-7 score in the playoff game with CPS. In 1955 Western was conference champion. This season startsagainst UBC, with doubleheaders set for the Canadian city on April 4 and here on April 5.

He was number two man for the Husky frosh team last year and Coach CharlesLappenbusch is expecting big things from the sophomore.

These contingents should give Western a place inthe May conference meetâ€”something they failed to get last year.

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

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

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

C.Ball Referendum 10 Bill Offers Million Dollars for Western The magic charm of the name "RussMorgan" faded in the Student Center this week. The disappointment of Morgan's cancellation had hung over the Homecoming office for a week. But when the Homecoming committee discovered they hadsigned another band leader who has played with the original Glenn Miller band, and was a personalfriend of Miller, the pall faded. HAL McINTYRE AND HIS BAND have been signed to play for theHomecoming Queen's Ball November 15 in the Bellingham Armory. Mclntyre,* who played solo tenorsax in the original Miller band, will appear with his own band and a female vocalist. He played threeyears for Miller, after which Miller helped him form his own band. Since then he has played all over theUnited States and has gone on tours overseas for the tBSO. He has cut recordings for Decca, Columbiaand Roulette. With a band definitely contracted, Homecoming preparations in every field picked up thisweek. A deadline of October 31 was Announced for all skit scripts for the Homecoming Skit Night, setfor November 14. All scripts must be in the Homecoming office between 2 and 4 p.m. next Friday.PETITIONS FOR QUEEN candidates are now available.

Ifpassed, the referendum will provide money for new additions to Western's Physical Educationbuilding and the power plant. The issue asks some 25 million dollars for new construction of buildingsfor state operated institutions, with Western in line to receive 81,130,568 for its additions. Referendum 10 will not require further taxation of the people of Washington, but rather will authorize the state toborrow against future revenues to meet the present building needs. It is a claim against future stateincome. BACKERS OF THE referendum cite the small gymnasium floor space per student as one ofthe main reasons why the bill should be passed. The present P.E. building was built when the college'senrollment was 617 as compared to the present enrollment of nearly 2,400 students. An addition tothe building would provide 18 square feet of floor space per student based on this year's enrollment while the present spatial area is only 4 square feet per student. AT PRESENT time there are no standbyboilers in the power plant. checked as they are received and The two boilers now operating can-anysignature found on more than not handle the load now necessi-one petition will be declared void. tated bythe addition of the two new buildings currently under construction on Western's campus, accordingto backers of the referendum. It is claimed that a third boiler, to be added as the result of the passingof the referendum, would relieve the load and supply a standby boiler. Student chairman Bob Gus-tavson, Forensics Club president, and Melvin A. Allen, who is acting as faculty coordinator, arespearheading a drive on campus to gain backers to the referendum.

S. concert in 1939, the Cossacks have been â€¢to thiscountry continually except for two singing tours when they enterained American troops overseas. Oneof the well-known Cossack dances for which the chorus is famous, the Lesginka is a dazzlingspectacle of a dancer juggling ten knives from forehead, shoulders, and clenched teeth. Another dance features breathtaking leaps and whirls, and exciting shouting and clapping from members of thechorus. White Russian emigres who fought Communism in Russia compose the nationally recognizedgroup. THE COSSACKS, who have toured all six continents and appeared in 65 countries, will presenttheir 2800th American concert during the coming season. Battle Lines Form at Hot Legislature MeetNEW P A R K I N G regulations go into effect at Western Monday. Entrance into the Administration- Faculty parking lot will be one way. It will be necessary* because of Science Building construction,to revert traffic. Students are asked not to park behind the Campus School. By LYLE PRICEPARTISAN FEELING began to be evidenced this Wednesday as the student legislature debatedproposals for a constitutional amendment, new ASB emblem, and sock hops in the gym. When themeeting broke up, there was no decision on any of the three matters; but battle lines had been formed.Introducing the constitutional amendment was Vice-President Kir-by Cleveland, who moved the matterbe placed on the Homecoming ballot. The amendment would allow a student to be elected ASBPresident who has completed at least six quarters of college residence work, of which at least threewould be at Western. Before the motion could be voted upon, legislator Jack Ra-bourn rose to a point oforder. Asked Rabourn: "Is the Homecoming election a general election?" He maintained it is not,and therefore a constitutional amendment may not be placed on that ballot. ASB PRESIDENT Al Jung,handling the chairmanship chores, ruled the matter could be placed on the Homecoming ballot.Promptly Rabourn appealed the decision of the chair, and Jung's ruling was overturned in closeballoting. The President then announced he would appeal the decision to the judicial branch. Usuallyreliable student center sources say that Jung and Cleveland have a transfer candidate in mind for ASB presidenital nominee this winter. Of course, if the amendment is not placed upon the fall ballot, it wouldbe too late for the amendment to affect this year's qualifications for the 1959-60 President. In otherwords, the amendment and the candidates would be voted upon at the same time. RABOURN and KenHaag, both juniors, joined forces to defeat Jung's ruling. The former pair are thought to be probablecandidates for the ASB presidency themselves. As it became evident to observers that the Clevelandamendment was indeed political, adviser Dr. Moyle Ce.derstrom tried to effect a compromise andlegislator Leo Dodd opined the decision "shouldn't be political."

According to Jack Rabourn, ASB legislator, "The conference wasdesigned mainly for freshmen and transfer students to familiarize them with the operation of thestudent government, and to show them* where the opportunities of participation to develop their ownleadership lies." He was happy to report the conference was a big success. PANEL DISCUSSIONSwere held Saturday afternoon. Members of the Legislature reviewed their duties and the importance of experience derived from participating in activities.' Discussion on the problems of the c a b i n e tfollowed. Representatives from campus organizations explained their clubs* function and activities.Harold A. Goltz, Director of Student Activities, summarized the duties of the ASB Activities Office.

Up in the old wing of Old Main, science students andphysical education majors are learning that cats are very similar to human beings. lt; In Mrs. Florence Kirkpatrick's Science 141 and 341 labs, students last week were learning many things about the humanbody by dissecting cats. "We're actually getting right down into things," lab assistant Bob Dunlap said,as he explained that examinations of cat muscles and skeletal systems gave future physical educationteachers an opportunity to see, manipulate and exploreâ€”actually come to knowâ€”the parts of the body. People who may be horrified at the thought of losing their pets to the science department need have noworry, since all cats used in the classes are brought from a Seattle biological supply house where theyare raised and painlessly put to sleep for the purpose. Collegian photographer John Zuanich caught these photos of students at work in Mrs. Kirkpatrick's lab sessions. ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1958 October 24 - Page 4 ---------- Page 4 WESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAN October 24,1958 Notes From the Warsaw Ghetto:Reviewer Says Civilization No Better than Cannibals No Money to Study Abroad? Opportunity Calls Next Week By FAITH HEARSEY "ANNALS OF MODERN CANNIBALISM" was the central theme for thefirst part of Virgilia Peterson's A 1 gt; lecture, "Books in Profile" presented in the auditorium thisTuesday. "To be more civilized does not necessarily mean to be less barbarous," Miss Petersonstated. "Today our society has become much more fashioned by the mind and much less natural,but we are no more kind to prisoners today than the barbarous cannibals f o u n d by earlier explorersof Brazil." To illustrate her belief, Miss Peterson reviewed two recent books describing the lives ofmodern prisoners. NOTES FROM THE WARSAW GHETTO is a collection of notes written by a personwithin that ghetto and hidden in bottles, from which they were recovered by historians after the war. Itis a work which has largely been ignored. "To ignore this book is to slip back into that abyss ofinhumanity we have been trying to climb out of. This is the stuff with which historians will judge us,"Miss Peterson commented. CHILD OF OUR TIMES tells the story of a different sort of prisoner. Tongi is a half French-half Spanish boy whose father deserted him, as did his mother later, after a flight toFrance following the start of the Spanish revolution. Tongi subsequently spent several years in a German Concentration camp and then was returned to Spain and put in an orphanage. Shortly afterwards hewas once more on his own and has been ever since. "This is not a book for the squeamish, but it hasthe almost miraculous tenderness of a boy who has looked at life in a way most of us cannot imagineand still found it good," Miss Peterson felt. THE KING MUST DIE, Miss Peterson's third choice ofbooks, deals with the life and love of Theseus and Ariadne. About this book, she said, "The wholevanished era becomes somehow more real than our own. It restores the concept of the heroâ€”onewho carries his principles like banners. Today our heroes are quite different and we ourselves are coming to be like characters from Huxley." Miss Peterson also reviewed J. Christian Herold's Mistress to anAge, Doctor Chivargo, and the Affluent society by John K. Galbraith. The universities of E n g l a n d,France, Germanyâ€”all of Europeâ€” are waiting for students with money to travel abroad. But . . .

Not only is it rock 'n roll (and for the most part poor R R), but the ntajority ofthe records on that machine are miserably old. I am willing to concede that possibly, there should beSOME rock n' toll on the box, but why not add a bit more of a variety. like some jazz as Â» fee instance . . . It seems safe to assume that artists like Louis Armstrong, Dakota Stanton, Julie London, EllaFitzgerald, the Modern Jazz Quartet and others of this nature would be able to sell. They do in otherplaces. I'll evÂ«a accept Louis Prima! Please, Mr. Knabe, tell the record man to make some changes!While I'm on this music kick, I may as well devote an entire column to it. A comment on "Tom Dooley." Imust admit that I liked the song, that is, until I heard it every time I turned on the radio. It. had gotten sobad that last Monday evening, while sitting: in Tony's Pizza Parlor (free plug), I detected a group of about12 or so Highland Hall men (?) standing on a table, hats over their hearts, tears in eyes, blubbering thesong to all present (me and three other people) as the song was being played on the juke box. Since that time I have had a slight case of stomach trouble. At the risk of losing a majority of my few readers, Iwould like to mention a record I think is terrific. Yes, it's Dixieland jazz. It's Turk Murphy's "Music forLosers." Turk is a short, stocky man who blows a let of trombone with his regular cornet man, Don Kinch, who is fairly well acquainted with said instrument. The outstanding cut on this platter is "Coal CartBlues," an old Louis Armstrong number, in which Kinch grabs a cornet intro that comes in low and hard.The rest of the group does all right, and I'll promise that you'll be bouncing your foot before the cut is over. The boys work together well on this record, and it may be the best that Turk has ever put out.

Hanging frorti aThe Fate of a Gymnasia THEY WILL ASK YOU TO WRITE. The late of an adequate gymnasium for theWestern campus hangs on the tip of your pen next week. Every student on campus will be asked to write a letter to parents and friends at home, urging them to vote for Referendum Bill Number 10, appearing onthe November 4 general election ballot. Why should you, a student, write letters urging the "passage of areferendum? These are the reasons: Referendum No. 10 will provide for more than a million dollars to beused for additions to physical education facilities at Western and for additions to the heating plant of thecollege. Our present gymnasium has less than half as much floor space per student as the average highschool in Whatcom, County, less than one-fourth as much as the average teachers' college in theUnited States. The heating plant is presently working at full capacity. Present boilers will not be able tocarry the added load when the Science Building and Student Union Building, now under construction, arecompleted. Referendum 10 does not call for an increase in taxes. It authorizes the state to borrowagainst future revenues to meet present critical needs. It is the same idea as a family borrowing money for a car or a home, through a long-term loan retired by current income. The bill will benefit Central, Eastern, the University of Washington and Washington State College. Students there will be writing letters. Itwill provide buildings and care for state mental hospitals, schools for the blind and deaf and correctionalcamps. Some of the people in these places will not be able to write letters. When they hand you theenvelope next week, pick up your pen and write. Jung Says Transfer Student's Eligibility For ASBPresidency 'Important' A Cry From the 'Good Old Days' Things Are Bad Now?

This column is for the student who wonders what Student Governmentdid while attending the Student Government Conference at Fort Casey last weekend. The group left at5:30 a.m. Saturday by way of two buses and four cars. Most of us found the two days full of meetings,group discussions, recreational facilities and new friendships. Perhaps the vice-president and Iappreciated meeting this eager and enthusiastic group most. Then there was a chance for us to evaluateyour representatives and members of the cabinet. I am sure that all appreciated the efforts of' thesteering committee which made this conference a success. During the Conference the ASB president'sprogram was made known to the delegates. Of most importance at this time is the proposedConstitutional amendment which allows a transfer student to be eligible for the position of ASB president. It is my opinion that no matter what the outcome of the vote by the Legislature might be, thisamendment is of major concern to a large number of transfers. The amendment simply states thatpersons having three quarters of resident college work and three complete quarters at Western areeligible to run. This would continue to insure that candidates be of junior status, while also implying thatcollege work during the first year gives the student a knowledge of personnel relationships. I would againwish to emphasize the importance of the pasage of Referendum Bill No. -10. The ASB is interested in the referendum because it will provide over a million dollars for necessary expansion of the heating plant andinstructional facilities for physical education at our college. Your student government urges you to voteyes on 10. Pep is the password for activities this fall, and perhaps it is most readily seen in the efforts of the ASB Pep Committee to sponsor buses to PLC this weekend. Funds were made available by theLegislature for this worthy project and we hope you are able to take advantage by joining the rooters toPLC.

The Tacoma eleven, despite the fact that they haven't won aleague contest yet this season, have an experienced squad with fifteen lettermen returning from lastyear's sixth place club. The men to watch in the PLC back-field will be John Jacobson, veteran signalcaller, and fullback George Fisher. They will operate behind a letterman-studded line anchored by centerMike Ted, tackle Dick Goodwin and end Lou Blaesi. THE VIKINGS, on the other hand, have yet tosustain a loss by a conference opponent. They suffered their first defeat last Saturday at the handsof a Llnfield team that had been defeated only by ranked Willamette. The big problem for the Norsemenagain this week will be mounting an offense to cope with the Lutes. With Fred Emerson still on thedisabled list and the services of Al DeCoria and Jerry Beringer doubtful, the Vik offensive threat isconsiderably weakened. The only opponent that both teams have faced so far this, season is EWC. TheLutes lost to the Cheney eleven, 21-0, while the Viks edged the Savages 6-0.

The basketball success of the school will probably rest on the shoulders of the nine mentioned above. Coach Jack Hubbard openeddrills with fifteen tentative varsity prospects. Lettermen Ron Thompson, Ron Kycek, Wendell Weld and Bob Petrosik, are all seniors. The prominent newcomers are Ed Vadset, Jack De- Kubber, NelloMorganti, Jim Rife and Bill Lehning. Commenting on the season's prospects, Hubbard stated, "We willbe much stronger at guard this year and have much better all around height. The boys are working hardto get into shape and competition is keen for all positions." THOMPSON, a 6'4" pivot man, scored 220 points last season to finish in a third place tie on the squad with Bill Wright.

Kycek, a 6'5" forward, scored 101 points and brought down the samenumber of rebounds. Weld and Petrosik didn't play last year but both were occasional starters, twoseasons ago. THREE OF THE newcomers are junior transfer students. Ed Vadset, an all-state highschool guard in 1956, transferred from Everett Junior College. Bill Lenning, also a guard, was an all-conference selection at Lower Columbia Junior College. Jack DeKubber, who could be the best shot in the league, played guard occasionally for Tippy Dye's Washington Huskies last season. The twoother prominent newcomers are freshman Nello Morganti. and Jim Rife. Morganti, a 6'2" guard, hails from Puyallup, and as a junior he was a third team ail state selection. Rife, 6'5", who played his high schoolball at Port Angeles, was a second team all-state selection as a junior. He was the tournament's second highest scorer, behind Richland's Nprris Brown. Up from the junior varsity squad are, Ted Fromm, Ron Saltis, Ron Thompson, Ron Hanna, Dermot Cunningham and Nigel Adams.

Western stayed close for the first quarter, and then slipped furtherand further behind. The wet conditions and vicious Wildcat tackling- led to numerous Vik miscues. -In the first quarter Linf ield opened the scoring parade when Bill Pressel sprinted? 65 yards beforebeing dragged down on the Western five yard-line. On the next play they scored, converted, and led,7-0. WESTERN CAME right back with a fifty-five yard drive to even the score at 7-7 at the end of thefirst quarter. In the second quarter, Jack Temple latched onto a fifteen yard punt by the Viks and wentin for Lin-field's second touchdown. With one second remaining in the half, Ron Parrish threw thirty-fouryards to Gene Manley for the third score for the explosive Wildcats, giving them a 20-7 halftime lead.The increasing d o w n p o ur limited third period scoring to a field goal by automatic Man-ley, leaving the Viks on the short end of a 23-7 score at the end of three quarters.

However,the Wildcats were not finished yet. They scored twice more with the assistance of Vik backs who wereincreasingly generous with fumbles. THE FINAL TALLY came when Denny Sheppard fumbled whileattempting an end sweep on the Vik eight. Two plays later Linfield was in the end zone for the finaltouchdown of the night. By DOUG SIMPSON The Viking gridders really took it on the chin lastSaturday night in McMinnville, Oregon, losing to the Linfield Wildcats, 37-14. Outplayed throughout thecontest, Western could not match the spirit and determination of the aggressive Wildcats. Western wasnot up for the encounter as was Linfield. Fortunately, the game was a non-conference affair. This writerthinks" that the defeat will lessen the pressure on the Viks, and perhaps enable them to play just a littlebit more effectively. Fred Emerson had the cast removed from his right knee Monday, and has beentesting it all week. He will be available for the Pacific Lutheran game tomorrow but probably will not seetoo much action unless he is needed. Al DeCoria will also be ready for tomorrow's game. Now that*Western has been dropped from the ranks of the undefeated, among Evergreen Conference teams, onlyCentral Washington remains in this exclusive bracket. Last year's conference champions, Central isonce again the team to beat, and now that Eastern has lost to the Wildcats, it looks as though onlyWestern has enough power to accomplish the task. Central is paced once again by their talented andhard-running halfback, Corky Bridges. None of the other teams in the conference offer any seriouscompetition, and will probably continue to knock each other off for the remainder of the season.Basketball coach Jack Hubbard has been holding turnouts for the past two weeks and is encouraged bythe team's prospects. Although the team has not yet been selected, Hubbard has confided that thesquad will be much faster than last season's and should offer, an improved scoring machine. Thedepleted guard contingent will be strengthened by three transfers and Bob Petrosik from the squad of twoyears ago. The transfers are sharpshooting Jack DeKubber from the University of Washington, Ed Vadset from Everett J. C., and^ Bill Lehning from Lower Columbia J. C.

If this is possible, Cleveland'samendment motion would again be before the legislature. Coming before the legislature for the secondstraight Wednesday was Dave Laster, head of the special ASB emblem committee. "We're notrecommending any (emblem). After looking them all over we decided none are acceptable. I wouldrecommend two of the emblems as possibilities, and encourage people who submitted entries to tryagain." Laster said there is a |25 award for the winning emblem. MUCH DISCUSSION followed theLaster recommendations, or lack of them. One emblem submission was termed "cluttered," another "adoor handle." Legislator Barbara Bos later moved to not refer to the one entry as "a door handle." "ThisViking Ship," L a s t er pointed out, "has esthetic value, but it was felt by the majority (of the committee) that it wouldn't be understood by the students."

They were aided by an assortment of men and women from other houses, but their combinedeffort was not sufficient to defeat an equally determined, and apparently stronger, contingent fromHighland Hall. A repetition of the contest resulted in the rope breaking amidst the Edens Hall participants. Student Tries to Save Life of Condemned Boy BY LYLE PRICE AT A TIME that most students areworrying about midterm exams or a Saturday night ballgame, WWC senior Tom Bowman is petitioning,pleading and phoning in an attempt to save a teen-aged former Bellingham boy from execution. Timeruns out the latter pari of this month on the stay of sentence in behalf of Henry M. Griffith, Jr., who is inWashington State's death row. Griffith has admitted killing a farmer in Eastern Washington twoyears ago. "Our idea isn't to ask a pardon," explains Bowman, "but to ask the Governor to commute thesentence so that Griffith is allowed to receive psychiatric treatment instead of being hanged."BOWMAN SAYS that he does not know the prisoner personally, but had known him around the city of Bellingham. Griffith, 19, attended Whatcom Junior High School. Considering the case a "localresponsibility," the WWC social studies major is circulating petitions that will be forwarded toGovernor Albert Rosellini. Bowman says that college professors, ministers, lawyers and other citizens in the area have signed the petition. The student himself has communicated several times withlawyers concerned in the case and with the Governor. "IF WE DON'T do anything about the case(locally), the chances are good that he'll be executed." This is why the Western student feels he must have a vital interest in the campaign. The petitioners also oppose capital punishment per se, and inthat they are not alone. Currently the state legislature at Olympia is pondering in committee a bill that would ban capital punishment in trie state. Twice such a law has been repealed in Washington.Explaining Griffith's case in more detail, Bowman says that the prisoner had never seen the farmerbefore he shot him. The defense maintains young Griffith shot out of impulse when the farmer orderedhim not to hunt on his property. Griffith is said to have attempted to rob the farmer, however, andaccording to Tom Durham, Whatcom County prosecutor, (reading from state statute), "the killing of ahuman being, unless excusable or justifiable, is murder in the first degree when committed by a personengaged in the commission of a robbery, burglary or larceny." Hence,, the severe sentence. THEDEATH ROW prisoner fled the scene in the farmer's truck, touching off a lengthy manhunt. "Our efforthas been to save Griffith! from death, both because of his age and because of these othercircumstances. We feel the death penalty would be entirely unwarranted." Reveal Situation to Pressand Students We have been asked many questions about the forthcoming Junior Prom regarding thesigning of a "big name" band to play at the dance. We would like to try and answer some of thesequestions. According to many people on campus, Les Elgart has been signed, sealed, and is ready to be delivered. This is not true! The committee has received the contracts from Elgart and has sent themback for Elgart to sign. On this contract toe added a rider saying that the contract had to be signed within20 days or it would be considered void. At this time we do not know if Elgart will sign, has signed, or hasany intention of signing.. Tuesday evening we called Elgart's agent in California to see how progresswas coming. He told us that Elgart was presently in Texas on tour. He also said that Elgart has thecontracts and zvill get them back to us as soon as possible. This may sound encouraging but in reality it is not. Even if we do get the contracts ba-ck there is a 45 day cancellation clause. It will be March 12before we can be absolutely sure of having him here. We have great hope that he will sign the contractand return it to us within the time limit, and not cancel out before March 12. The time limit expires nextweek. When we asked the Legislature for extra money, the recommendation read as follows: "TheJunior Prom Committee recom-ments to the ASB Legislature that $1724 be appropriated from budgetcontrol for the purpose of obtaining a "big name" band for the Junior Prom, a suitable location, and othernecessary arrangements." In the recommendation we asked for money to obtain a "BIG NAME"band, not Les Elgart by name. At the time, Elgart was the most likely prospect and still is, but he is notour only prospect. The band chairman of the Junior Prom is currently negotiating with agents to line upother big name bands if possible. It is very difficult to get bands whose tours coincide with our available dates. We will continue searching and negotiating for a big name band if any are available. One thing you can be certain of is that the Junior Prom will have a band. It may not be a "big name" band but a smallerone which will provide good danceable music. We, and other members of the Junior Prom committee, give you our assurance that we are doing everything possible, big name band or not, to make this JuniorProm a dance which the student body of Western Washington College can be proud of. Nancy Parkerand Dennis Fish Junior Prom Co-chairmen Players Rehearse Shakespeare tines "THERE IS MORE TOT H IS than meets the eye." Actors, now working on their interpretation of the lines and charactersof Macbeth are finding Shakespeare is not the easiest play-writer to understand. Dr. Gregory, director,recently commented, "Amateur actors are conditioned to the Dragnet type of drama and findShakespearean poetry difficult to understand because so many of the words are archaic. The actors have trouble finding the rhythm and even when the rhythm is found they must remember that they arenot reading poetry but drama." Applications Now Open APPLICATIONS WILL be accepted nextweek for the following ASB positions: President Vice-President 4 Legislature positions. Applicationforms can be picked up in the Student Center and MUST be turned in by 3 p.m. on Friday, Feb. 13. Inspeaking of interpretation, he stated, "Interpretatipri--of the characters in Shakespeare is easierbecause one can dig' into the character as deep as he wants to goâ€”there are unlimited possibilities. "An actor has. to have a reason to do something a certain way, he has to feel that his character has areason and Shakespeare gives him that reason." . The stage crew, under direction of Mark Flanders,technical; director, is still at work on. construction of the set. Flanders stated that this set is really justa lot of levelsâ€” platforms and steps for acting purposes but it will prepare the audience for the conflictin the play. This set when finished, will present a picture of savage-ness and power. The platforms(portable for touring purposes) have ali been constructed and work on the back drops will beginSaturday. Work parties are still being held all day Saturday and every afternon except Tuesday andFlanders welcomes all helping hands. "COSTUME PARTIES" are also being held. These parties willtake place Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday evenings at 7 p.m. in the Green Room of the A-MBuilding. ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1959 February 6 - Page 2 ---------- Page 2 WESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAN February 6, 1959 Board Reports Given: ScholarshipProposal THE DETAILED REPORT expected from the Co-op Committee in answer to Jack Rabourn'ssix-point charge listfithrew the Student legislature into one of several de-^ bates Wednesday, K: Whenthe dust had .cleared nearly all the Legislators had aired their grievances or arrived at satisfactoryanswers as presented by junior Bob Thorgrim-son, Co-op Committee chairman. DR. MOYLECEDERSTROM, faculty adviser, told the Legislature after hearing both sides that he felt the policiesand answers presented by the Co-op should be publicized by the Collegian. Thorgrim-son andRabourn have both admitted to a reporter that some questions are still only partially answered,and for that reason the Collegian is deferring a report of the charges, counter-charges and opinions ofLegislators, Co-op personnel and WWC students until reporters complete a further study. Speakingfor his committee, Thor-grimson says the whole issue will be more lucid if everyone's contentions arecleared up in one story. IN OTHER PROCEEDINGS of the 119 minute meeting, Gerdy White, whoheads the Public Relations Committee, re- â€¢ quested that steps be taken to provide ''academicscholarships" op, a ^co-operative basis between ;' Whatcom ^County businessmen and the AssociatedStudent Body. "The idea," explained White, "is to interest downtown Bellingham and Whatcom Countybusinessmen in the College." White's plan would have a certain amount of money ($10 or $25)contributed from student funds with the remainder of the two $150 scholarships coming from variousbusiness and civic groups. Criteria for winning a scholarship would be activity in student affairs, junioror senior status at WWC, need, and a 2.4 grade point average. "YOU MEAN 3.4?" interjected Dr.Keith Murray, adviser. "No," answered White "2.4. The primary reason for the scholarship is need." "Ifwe do this," offered Dr. Murray after reflection, "we'll make ourselves look ridiculous. A scholarship isgiven to someone who is; bright. Practically anyone who graduates gets a 2.4. Let's call it a grant-in-aid." Dr. Cederstrom contended that students should not have to support other students and that hewould be against paying scholarships with student fees, even in part. HOWEVER, THE LEGISLATUREapproved Bruce Hannaford's motion to accept in principle the idea of the co-operative arrangement and to authorize a committee to study the matter further and submit a definite proposed program.Legislators Dick Powell and Bob Gustavsori exchanged questions and answers about the "yell" staff.Powell said that Gary Lind had resigned from the staff before last weekend due to scholastic andactivity loads. DOUGLAS BENNETT, architect and designer, was relieved of the task of designing anew ASB emblem. The new committee will select the new artist.

Not only weremany students "snowed" once more when they saw their grades reports, but also when confronted with new interesting courses and activities . In trying to adjust to this challenge of the new quarter thestudent might find it helpful to take stock of what he did or did not accomplish last quarter and perhapsmodify his previous attitudes toward the process of learning. Study habits, attitudes toward assignment,class participation and conduct in class may stand some - â€¢ thoughtful review. * Do we, for example,take part in so many social activities that it cuts down our study time? Or do we - V lack depth in socialdirection altogether? Do we really study "better" with the hi-fi or radio blaring? Must we really go skiingevery weekend? â€¢ Analysis of the emphasis you give to the things you doâ€”study, class attendance,social activities, sportsâ€”may be the first step toward scholastic achievement. If you feel you need helpin a specific direction whether academic or social, seek it through the facilities the college communityprovides. For the future, you might keep in mind the value of arranging courses and activities. And finally,an important aspect in the attitude of learning, is to remember that you and what you do are important in the process of success.

Last Saturday, in their first appearance this season, the Blueand White turned back the University of British Columbia by a score of 6-5. The contest, a hard foughtnip and tuck-game, saw the Vikings draw first blood. The score came on a try by Gary Eilers after about15 minutes of play. The. convert was missed leaving the score 3-0. The remainder of the first cantosaw Coach Joe Davies' team deep within their own territory defending against a determined UBCsquad. The Thunderbirds scored in the closing minutes of the first period on a try, tying the score. TheCanadians made their convert, leaving them with a 5-3 lead at half time. THE DETERMINED Vikingscame back strongly in the second half. The Blue and White thwarted two rushes the Canadiansmade at their goal. They drove the UBC squad back, and in the last minutes of the second periodscored on a penalty kick by Ken Burton. Coach Davies pointed out that the Vikings did not allow the foe a single line out in the second period. "Denny Kimmel did an outstanding job in scrum, receiving 85 per cent of the team's line outs," Davies said. "It was the hard, charging, fierce tackling, and over allteam effort that was the deciding factor of the game." THE TEAM WILL be at full strength fortomorrow's game.

The rugby game played here against UBC last Saturday was well received by a large crowd. Coach Joe Davies and his 15-man team did a great jobconsidering they had had only eight turnouts before the first game. Eight of the players had never seen agame before they played last Saturday. Western won the contest 6-5. Davies and Assistant Coach RedSmith expect to have a fop notch team by the end of the year. I urge anyone who has not seen a rugbygame to come out and see the Viks play their next home game. The contact of the game is something to behold. The big difference between football and rugby contact is that in rugby the players have no padded equipment. i i i Looking at Western's 10 and 5 basketball record and comparing it with past yearsone might think Western is just having a lucky year. Actually this is just the beginning of Western's1 bas-. ketball success. Coach Jack Hubbard is beginning to realize some of the benefits of his recruiting. This year Hubbard loses Ron Thompson, Ray Kycek, Windy Weld, and Jack deKubber. The first three havedone a good part of Western's rebounding this year but Hubbard has four players on his jayvee squadstanding 6'5" or better, ready to take their places. Jim Greer, the 6'7" transfer from the U. of W. will takeover at center next year. In Terry Clayton, Bud Bloch, and Jim Rife, Hubbard has three men standing 6'5". All four are capable performers, and all but Greer have more than one year of eligibility remaining. -f -ti Looking ahead, baseball Coach Red Smith held a meeting last week for those interested in turning out.Smith laid out his objectives for the season, and offered the players a training program. The Vikingshave won the Conference baseball championship the past two seasons, and Smith doesn't intend torelinquish the top spot this year. ... Lost from last year's team are Connie Hamilton, Jim Gard, BobAllen,, Doyle Winter, and Oliver Riekkola. Returning lettermen are Don Gard, Fred Emerson, Dick Dixon,and Neil Clough. Smith has an excellent group of freshman prospects to fill out his talented group ofveterans. It looks as though Smith's big problems will be pitching and shortstop. Last year Western wasweak in pitching, but outstanding hitting overcame this handicap. WESTERN'S BILL WRIGHT hooksfor two points against PLC's Chuck Curtis. Wright scored 22 points. WINDY WELD strains as a CentralWildcat player reaches for the ball. Western won their only game of the weekend. (Photo by Chuck Stutz) Western Loses Two Games And Wins One in Series BY JOHN GREER WESTERN'S FIVE GAME win streak came to an end last weekend as the Viks lost two out of three contests. PLC topped the Vikings 75-64 on Friday night and West-mont of Santa Barbara, California, outshot the Norsemen on Mondaynight. Western salvaged one victory out of the disastrous weekend as they downed Central 61-52. A cold first quarter spelled defeat for the Vikings Friday night as they fell before the powerful, well-roundedattack of PLC. With the exception of Bill Wright t h e N o r s e m en couldn't find the range, and fortyper cent shooting by the Lutes opened up a ten point lead at half time. As the second half opened, theViks began to pepper the hoop and, led by Wright and Ray Kycek, to match the Gladiators basket forbasket. The ten point difference proved to be too wide a margin, however, and the Hubbard coachedcagers couldn't pull it out. Wright led all scorers with 22 while Kycek hit 13, twelve of them in thesecond stanza. Top PLC scorer was Chuck Curtis with 17, while Roger Iverson and Jim Van Beek hit12 each. The big difference in the contest was the Lutes' 41 per cent shooting average as Western could only hit 34 per cent. After a poor first half against Central, Kycek and Nello Mor-ganti began to hit thehoop and the Norsemen moved into a good lead. Both teams began to press and the officials whistleddown 25 fouls in that half alone. Western continued to connect and Central hit a cold streak that lasteduntil the final gun. The Cats hit only seven of twenty-seven shots in the second half while the Viksconnected on 10 of 32, and 14 out of 20 charity tosses. COORDES LED ALL scorers with his 23counters while Wright got 15 and Morganti and Kycek got 12 and 11 respectively. Kycek and RonThompson were the top Viking re-bounders. Thompson got 14, eleven in the first half, and Kycek gotnine of his 12 in the second period. Monday night Wright's 21 points and Kycek's 20 rebounds weren'tenough to stop a dead-eye five from Westmont gt; as the southerners set the Viks back 65-51 for theirsecond defeat in three outings. The tall and talented Californians wasted no time displaying theirprowess as ^they potted ail assortment of ^beautiful jump shots to open an Â£*Â»rly lead. The. Warriorskept the score keepers busy throughout the first half as they hit 17 out of 35 attempts to lead 37-24at the buzzer. Western came out for the second half as cold as Bellingham's perennial north wind andthe visitors opened the lead to nearly 20 points. Then on a brace of baskets by Wright and Kycek, theNorsemen came back to within nine but that was all. The tiring Western quintet lost the range andWestmont coasted to the victory.

Tomorrow night College of Puget Sound hosts the Vikings and next ThursdayPacific Lutheran's league leading Gladiators .furnish the opposition. CPS has been i m p r o v i ngsteadily and has two formerly ineligible players ready for action. The Vikings have beat the Loggerstwice this season but the margin of victory was only three and seven points. Bill Demick and Hal Nesslead the Logger scorers with Demick scoring 33 points in his two outings against Western.COMMENTING ON THE CPS game, Coach Jack Hubbard stated. "They will be tougher the second time around because of the advantage of playing on their home floor. They have fair size and are anextremely agressive club," , Pacific Lutheran will be seek- : tag their third victory over Western thisseason and attempt to extend their Conference win streak to 34. Chuck Curtis and Jim Van Beekwere the big thorns in Western's side in their last meeting with 17 and 12 points respectively. RogerIverson the Lutes' leading scorer hit for 12 points in both his outings against the Viks. However, thisis far below his season's average.

The privilege this September is the most significant over the years for two reasons: First,this group is the largest in the history of the College, and second, no group of the past has ever facedsuch interesting and challenging years on campus and in society. During the coming four years we willsee further increases in enrollment, faculty growth, 'program, changes, the completion of the Scienceand the Student Union Buildings, and possibly the erection of other buildings. It is interesting to note that many individuals predict that college admission requirements and scholastic standards on all campuseswill inevitably be raised year by year for some time. This trend is already evident here. World trendsindicate that our society in the future years will demand more of the individual. Teachers, chemists, andmathematicians will have to be better in the future to be as good as they are now. Will we, as collegefaculty and college students, make the most of every opportunity during this year and as long as we aretogether? I hope so. Will all new students, as they begin their work on this campus, accept the bestwishes of the faculty and the returning students. W. W.

Known far and wide in America as amilitant champion and eloquent spokesman for the forces of freedom, Archduke Otto was born in 1912,the eldest son of Archduke Charles of Austria-Hungary and of Princess Zita of Bourbon-Parma. SinceWorld War II, Archduke Otto has continued to keep up political work to free Austria and Hungaryfrom totalitarian-domination. His name was prominently mentioned during the trial ot Hungary's CardinalMendszenty and since then he has been time and time again denounced by Russian and otherCommunist papers as "one of the most dangerously hostile forces in Europe." IN AMERICA NOWFOR ANOTHER of his extended lecture tours, Archduke Otto will stress the present danger Europeand America face, identify the main danger zones and present his thought-provoking ideas on howdemocracy can be preserved to bring peace and contentment once again to the free men and womenof the world.

This is the biggest event this season for theswimming and diving stars of the respective schools. Due to the large number of events andparticipants a preliminary meet will be held tonight at 7:30 in the Western pool. The men who qualify inthis elimination will perform in the finals to be held at 2:30 tomorrow afternoon. WESTERN HASPOSSESSION of the Conference trophy for the championship last year. Western, however, is notexpected to make a repeat performance of last year's efforts, for the Savages and the Thunderbirds aretwo of the top contenders for Conference honors. The trip east of the mountains was in vain asWestern lost to Eastern 69-17 Friday and to Washington State last Saturday. AFTER SWIMMING atEastern the day before, the Viking crew fared better against the larger WSC squad by garnering 28points to the Cougar's 55. In this contest the Viks captured first place in the 440 yard medley. MikeBerg, Trev Barrett, Howard Arnold and Hans Lorentzen splashed through the water in 5:52.2 to pick up five points. The 440 medley involves four swimmers, with each swimmer using a different stroke topropel themselves the length of the pool. Western has suffered many defeats this year due to thelosses of veteran swimmers. Graduation, in-eligiblity, and transfers have cut deeply into the WesternSwim ranks. The Vikings won last year but the situation has changed this season as the swim men areyet to win a meet. Weather Slows Tennis Start, - Lappenbusch Poor weather has been the cause forsome concern to Charles Lappenbusch, tennis coach. COACH LAPPENBUSCH revealed thatbecause of the weather the courts nets aren't up yet and that he will have to wait for further results onwho will be returning for athletic competition this spring. Western will have three letter-men returning;Ken Moffett, Gerald Schiele and Dick Endersbe. The Vikings will again use the ladder system with the letter-men holding down the top' positions. In order to unseat a player above on the "ladder" anaspirant must win two victories over his opponent. The fight for fifth and sixth positions should be agood one this season as the Holly Shoe Repair And Sporting Goods Joe Martin, Owner 206 E. Holly St. Phone 4908 race will be wide open. The incentive is that the five men will be allowed to travel with the squad on road trips and the sixth will not. "Fine caliber tennis at the top of the ladder is the big thing inconference play. I hope Tom Erick-son can be our number one player, otherwise I am- counting j gt;nMoffett," Lappy stated. Erickson was one of the best players at the University of Washington lastyear but he will not be eligible until May sixth. Lappenbusch also hopes that he can contact moreoutstand- , ing tennismen to help the other players. He is striving for top competition in practice also.WESTERN MEETS Central Washington sometime in late April for their first match. A definite schedulehas not been worked out yet.

Western will bedefending against a potent UBC team and a strong Eastern squad. Drop out to the pool for some fineaqua displays tonight. THE BIG ENROLLMENT IN THE MEN'S PE PROGRAMS is indicative of alldepartments at Western Washington. The crowded conditions are beginning to "bust out all over."Plans,for a bigger physical education plant have been submitted already but it doesn't look too hopeful. If appropriations are not granted, Western can look for tighter times. The college will probably bulgeunder a higher enrollment next year. And Betrozoff to complicate matters, Western is just one of theWashington institutions that is feeling the crowded conditions. The difference is Western is increasingfaster. AN ATHLETIC PROGRAM DOES NOT CHANGE IN MIRACULOUS PROPORTIONS IN ONEYEAR. Our BOC awarded 12 $150 athletic scholarships last spring and and they are just coming intouse. And some students are wondering why Western is not on top already. Well, we haven't taken achampionship yet and prospects are not good that we will. , Our Athletic Director, Charles Lappenbusch,pointed out the athletic dilema in 1953 saying that Western wouldn't win a football game in 1955 if thedownward trend in athletics was continued by the institution. Lappy was fooled when Western won one game in 1955. Then we got scholarships. Coach John Kul-bitski debuted last fall as Viking grid boss andwas quoted as saying that it will be a good three years before the scholarships will take hold. And that 12 scholarships was not sufficient for the four major sports. Basketball mentor Jack Hubbard said amen tothese words numerous times. WESTERN GOT OFF THE BOTTOM THIS YEAR. And from now on will go up, but not like a skyrocket. Other schools are improving their programs too. Many have far superiorprograms'. Western will meet stumbling blocks on their way up, but the significant thing will be' that theywill be going up. It takes time to do anything. Western hasn't been known for its athletic achievements for quite some time. Much additional time will pass before the college is noted.

Thisis our policy, has been our policy, and will continue as our policy as long as the present editor holdsoffice. Our policy: 1. 2. 3. 5. To present a modern weekly college newspaper, that interprets the newsindependently, presents the news interestingly and in a live manner, and reserves an editorial section that interprets, criticizes, and praises freely within the bounds of law and decency. To allow for presentation of the views of the individual student. .To pursue a news policy that will make the student ever more awareof his student government, its actions, and the people in itâ€”without serving as a propaganda agency forany group. To stand for better student representation, for better student government and more studentgovernment, and to stand against the turning of student elections into popularity contests. To make theCollegian a more interesting newspaper by integrating the headline, the printed word and the picture into a modern news unit. The editorial policy of a newspaper,is usually the expression of its executive; such istrue in our case. Whether the policy is good and followed consistently is to be decided by the reader.â€”Ken Robertson Censor Board Caught In A Furor BELLINGHAM'S CENSOR BOARD IS SITTING INTHE MIDDLE OF A FUROR, the-Bellingham Herald reported Wednesday, and the city hall is unable todetermine how the Board even began. Since the Herald's reporting of the Censor Board's last meetingand the publication of last week's Collegian editorial on the Board by the Herald, several developmentshave taken place. â€¢ * * IN THE LETTER ADDRESSED TO THE HERALD EDITOR (a copy of whichwas forwarded to the Collegian editor), Dorothy Jackson, a member of the Board, stated "For manyyears the Bellingham Board of Censors has endeavored to encourage the people of our communityto attend movies recommended as either adult or family type entertainment, and to discourage vendors from making available to children unsuitable printed material. "Not only were these functions madeknown at the board meeting attended by your representative, the remarks treating unkindly theattentions of the press and the attitude of the college students of our town were denounced by atleast one member of this board." Wednesday, Mayor John Westford stated he has not yet made anydecision on how to resolve Letter to Editor: WE would like to thank students and organizations fortheir excellent cooperation in ASB elections this week. Special thanks go to the following people on theElections committee'. Gordon Kimbell, special assistance throughout the election; Jim Kelly, assemblychairman; Sally Cays, Jeri McNutt, Dave Kraft; house competition; Marion Kemp, posters and Dr.August Radke, advisor. Thanks to the Collegian for excellent publicity, to Harley Stafford, Visual Aides Dept., and to all the houses entering in a house competition. To the excellent job done by alh the Poll Clerks and to Dr. Alexander Zawackvjofe-ilie posters.- M,ost important, How,eyer, were all the students'who VOTED. \J ARLENE GANNON â€¢ n ALJUNG Co-chairmen ASB Elections Committee the furorswirling around the Board which is accountable only to him. HE REPLIED IN ANSWER TO DIRECTQUESTIONS that he has never attended a meeting of the Censor Board, has not spoken or written to the board as a whole regarding its actions, does not know how the Censor Board was originally setup, has not been furnished with any of the publications which the Censor Board has recommended bewithdrawn from local public consumption, and has not seen any minutes of the board, though he does get telephone calls on occasions from some board members regarding some board actions. â€¢â€¢â€¢Veteran city hall observers say they cannot recall definitely how the Board was originally set up,according to the Herald. "Bellingham has had a Censor Board since bull was a pup," one longtime cityemploye said. A check of the city ordinance index showed an ordinance creating a Board of Censorswas rejected by the City Council in March of 1929, almost two years after being introduced and referredto the council committee of the whole. Mayor Westford stated that he appointed present members ofthe Board because it had been in existence under previous mayors. City Clerk Alfred Loop says theBoard is directly responsible to the mayor, requires no City Council confirmation of appointments and isnot set up by the charter or city ordinance. â€¢ â€¢ * The question then is: how was the Board set up,why is it functioning, is there a need for it, and what powers does it have? Mayor Westford said heintends to confer with the city attorney to determine just what powers the Board actually has. THERESULTS WILL BE INTERESTING. This Board, responsible only to the mayor, has used its position,according to the Herald, to seek police department action in enforcing its recommendations, but thepolice chief has said he is not willing to take such action without the j board going through the mayor'soffice. jj-; \ \ It seeyns J.lfflt Bellingham's city officers aim ' ^ city boards) vrCHhis erne, need a bit morecorrelation; when a board operates without its actions being known to its superiors, there is likely to b'e a lot of confusion and a lot of'mW%riderstanding.': There may be a need for a Censor Board, but ipsposition, powers and-actions should be"clarified, '" "I don't understand the game. I just come to watch thegirls." Getting the Work Done While the Board of Control pushes itself through the throes ofparliamentary panics each week, some of the most important, and far reaching, action on campus goesfaithfully on under the direction of individuals called committee chairmen. This week itself saw theculmination of the work of Al Jung and Arlene Gannon's Elections committee. Ther concentrated workhas brought, and is still bringing, some new concepts to Western's elections, including more intelligentand concentrated jobs of bringing the words of the candidates to the voters. Their bringing of thecandidates to the houses, where they spoke on their own and showed their true colors, was a giant stepin elections progress; and we suspect that these new ideas are due in no little measure to the help of the committee's advisor, Dr. August Radke. We could go on and list the other committee chairmen, but they will be recognized at more auspicious times, since we could not possibly list all their achievements inone issue. These chairmen, and the student executive office, where Ken Moffett and Joel Carlson holdsway, have accomplished more for the student and for his relations with the administration-other thanworshipful prostrationâ€”than has been done in a long time. â€¢ â€¢ â€¢ â€¢ â€¢ ' Hammer in OtherHands LAST WEEK THE BOARD OF CONTROL ATTEMPTED TO NAIL the "Collegian" to a spiked postby quizzing next year's editor as to what could be done to better relations between the BOC and the"Collegian." This week the hammer is in different hands. From the questions! posed by the Board itappears as though the BOC desires no publicity on their actions except that which they monitor. The"Collegian" has maintained a liberal policy of holding the Board accountable for its actions. The BOCshould realize, however, that when they select an editor they should, not select his policies. If thesestudent officials are not willing to prosper by just criticisms then they should join the Bellingham CensorBoard and get out of student government.. Only a few short weeks ago the BOC openly attacked . the"Collegian" for its inadaquate coverage of campus news in one issue. The present editor accepted thiscriticism for what it was. An attempt to better inform Western students on WWCE events. The followingweek me paper corrected these errors. THE "COLLEGIAN" ACCEPTS REMARKS IN THE LIGHT theyare given. And we do not intend to operate the paper with a flashlight with only one battery when studentgovernment action demands comment. â€”Ronn Beams ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1957 March 1 - Page 6 ---------- Page 6 WESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAN March 1, 1957 WESTERN mm â€¢ Covering theCampus . . . . . .

Talking about the censor board, we wonder how many college students uphere at Western are "drying off behind the ears." It seems to us that a large percent of the students areover twenty-one years of age, and on occasion, can think for themselves. This columnist was accused offollowing a garbage truck to dig up his news by an unknown sports writer that writes a column (?). To that columnist, all I have to say is, "at least I don't have to make up my own news . . . " We were betrayedby the weather last week; it managed to snow, rain, and sleet.

By DAVE VANBRONKHORST ASB ELECTIONS THIS QUARTER ARE ALL OVER BUT the shouting, so it seems, and Western has a slate of officers and BOC members to carry through the coming year. At this point wemake the following observation. The winners of the elections will now initiate and promote programswhich they outlined in their campaign platforms. At least it is assumed by their constituents (and otherinterested parties) that they will do so. But what about the losers? Does losing an election mean thatyou can contribute nothing more to student govenment? Never let it be said! All too often this assumption is made, and the people who didn't win the offices silently fade away into obscurity and are never heardfrom again. Consider this . . . if the ideas you were advocating were worth running a campaign on, if theymerited that much energy, that much work, certainly they should remain in your mind worth working forbehind the scenes. DON'T MAKE THE MISTAKE OF THINKING that nothing* can be accomplished byanyone who isn't on the Board of Control, either. Board of Control members have no monopoly oninitiative! More things are wrought by the men behind the leaders than this world dreams of . . . and thisis the kind of thing we need . . . people to work for accomplishments, even though they may receive fortheir labors, no recognition.

Puget's BEST Sound! CO ENT If We Could Expose thePotted Plants . . . WHEN WE SAID WE WERE TRYING NEW THINGS THIS YEAR, we were unaware of our own powers. Last week the Collegian sent an editor to cover the faculty presentation, "My Philosophy of Life.' Not knowing the location of the meeting, the editor followed a large group of faculty members toRoom 115 of the A-M Building. He began to grow suspicious when only faculty members kept showingup. Nevertheless, he stuck it out until the meeting convened, and still not a student had arrived. Finallydiscovering that he had entered a closed meeting in the wrong building, the editor returned to report thathe had scored a first. Not only had a student broken boldly into a Faculty Council Meeting, but the grouphad voted 12-1 to throw him out. Next week the Collegian covers the Ladies' Garden Club.

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

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

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

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

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

His warmth, his thoughts crept only to a few. Who sat,questioning, listening, Quiet for his replies, Reveling in the new found peace. But the poet's songcontinued, He called to the listening few. They followed his warmth from the stir of the lounge Into aquiet cafe. Then the words tumbled forth with a rich, warming swing; Singing of sadness, of cheating, ofhurt; Singing of meaness, of blindness, of hate; Yet singing of beauty, of kindness, of love. They sang tothe quiet of a song of the beat. But people shoved in with parrots' minds, Rushing, chanting, crying. "Asa Christian, I believe I" "As a Christian, I believe!" Their chorus swelling, grinding, crushing. Yet the manstayed, listening, patient, Answering with a love glow in hip eyes, A glow of beauty, people, thought andseeing.

By JUDY BORMAN A comfortable man in a comfortable setting; this wasthe first impression imparted by Dr. James L. Jarrett as he opened the doors of his office to a Collegianreporter last week. Dressed in a brown checked sports coat and a green tie he seemed to fit right in withthe scheme of his office, done in pale green walls, darker green rug, brown furniture and brown leatherchairs. But there is more to this man than his easy, friendly appearance might seem to indicate for hesounds like a truly progressive person with almost revolutionary ideas. He is looking for an educationalideal and if he can realize his many hopes, it looks as though he may come close to obtaining it. Thepresident admits to being near-fanatical on the issue of what might be termed "studentism." It is hisopinion that students should "see college as a full-time occupation, not a forty hour week." He feels thatthe campus day should begin with classes at 8 or 9 in the morning and continue on through late eveningwith the inclusion of classes, library study, school activities, bull sessions in the coffee shop, independent reading and attendance at college functions. "Students' lives should be centered on the campus," heclaimed. As for the role of the Viking Union, he expressed the hope that students will help achieve ahigher cultural and intellectual level for the school through proper use of this building, the very core ofcollege existence." He would like to see the presentation of papers and talks on any and all subjectsgiven in the Union--"anything is of interest to the live mind. "It is his opinion that students should "knockthemselves out in the attempt to build a hive of college-type activities here." Almost more than anythingelse he would like to see the academic standards raised to a higher level. He hopes that an intelligencescreening system can be devised to cut down the admission of students whose chances for collegesuccess are low. Under his administration all departments of the school are undergoing a thoroughscrutiny in an attempt to determine where revision is needed. With the opening of the new ScienceBuilding, additional courses in this department are to be added. The present facilities, according to Jarrett, are "just miserable . . . would disgrace a country school." As an increasing concern for educationbecomes evident the world over, Jarrett hopes Western can keep pace by effecting an enriched program.Besides added classes in the science department, he would like to see the offering of courses in theclassics, upper division courses in foreign literature and a full-scale curriculum in psychology. In answerto the many questions asked about the proposed Honors System, Jarrett stated that the matter is beinglooked into by a faculty committee but that no definite plans have yet been made. If the system is putinto effect it will mean that a small percentage of the most able students will be given the opportunity toenroll in classes especially de- ---------- Collegian - 1959 December 17 - Page 6 ---------- signed for them. The classes, he said, would be mainly taught by the discussion method and wouldstress individual instruction and independent study. With this offering for the exceptionally able, Jarretthopes to attract students to the college. He also expressed a desire to see a scholarship programestablished whereby the academically superior student could recieve financial assistance greatlyexceeding that which is now available. Turning away from this subject for a moment, the president stated that students should be doing considerable independent study. "The student who can't find time topursue outside interests and to read, isn't managing his time very well. Most students sleep too much." ''The fact that I have emphasized change has been continually stressed." A slight frown was visible. "But Iwould like to say that there are many excellent features of this college that I hope to retain." He went onto express specific approval of the drama department and the Collegian. Then he added, "the attitudetoward atheletics is a sane one and the spirit at social functions is good.''' On this note the interviewcame to an end as Dr. James Jarrett rose from his leather chair, glanced briefly out the window at thecampus for which his plans are being made, and went on to other business. DOH*T YOU FÂ£â‚¬L YOUSHOULDN'T eC VMTCHIN6? ---------- Collegian - 1959 December 17 - Page 7 ---------- J $;*Â» is wonderful by Bob Stevenson It's Christmas eve in the year nineteen-twenty and darkness iscreeping across the trees on the street as a man hurries home, being careful to avoid the icy areas. Hiscollar is turned up against the cold and snow crunches under his feet, but inside is a feeling as he thinksabout his wife and family at home. Home, where a fire will be blazing and a tree is growing out of thecolorful packages near the large leather chair. The large leather chair, the warm aroma of dinner when the door bursts open and his daughter rushes into his arms. The close friends and the small party, he thinks, and after that -- after that the story he would read to the children from the large, worn brown volume inthe library. The bus doors opened with a swish and a bang as the cold wind cut through his new topcoat.With a slight jump he alighted on the snow and turned up the dark street toward home. In the eastern skya light was moving westward and flashed on and off intermittently like a beacon swung on a long string.Another sattelite, he thought, and looked down the street at the sodium vapor light which cast a blue hueon the snow in front of his house. It was Christmas eve, nineteen fifty-nine, and the yearly office partywas behind. He opened the door and glanced at the children on the floor in front of the TV as he walked to the kitchen. Only upon nearing the stove could he catch the smell of dinner before the whirling fanwhisked it away. His wife turned to him and said, "Home so early? I'm trying a new brand of frozen dinnerwhich will cook in eighteen minutes, so we can see that early show on television." "Isn't sciencewonderful?'' In the same year, a month earlier, a white-robed scientist looked up from his test tube andmade a profound statement, clinching it with, "It has been scientifically proven." No one would questionhim because, after all, he is a scientist and it was scientifically proven. Twentieth century man willquestion everyone and anything, but a scientist, whom he places on a pedestal and worships. And whilewestern man is worshipping everyone from a lab technician to a test-tube washer, this so-called scientistis pushing esthetics out into the cold icy winds of December and gripping a strangle-hold on graciousliving. ---------- Collegian - 1959 December 17 - Page 8 ---------- By GORDON MILLS Once again the fat man with the goodies makes the scene at Western. For monthsthe campus has been anxiously awaiting his annual visit. Let's see what the jolly one has in the bagthis year. A stereo for the Union Board and friends; a piece of rope for Stevenson; a "Music MadeSimple" course for the Night People; more and longer coffee breaks for the administrative secretaries; aUnion Dedication invitation for Khruschev; a vaccum cleaner to speed things up for the Edenshousemother; Blue Blazers for the Union Board; spectators to watch the "green tanks" in action; apiece of pi for the math department; a relief fund for History professors. A personal bodyguard forCollegian sports columnists; some competition this year for Highland Hall in the Loud-house race; a resthome for ASB advisers; full Collegian coverage for neglected student leaders; some cents for theeconomics department; pre-season vacation trips for the baseball team; meatier chickens for Soggy Food Service; sympathy for the A L performers who didn't draw a crowd; ptomaine for persons who writeletters to the editor; more room for the Lounge Rats; parking meters for Sehome hill. Some sea shells forthe Blue Barnacles to play with; a parking -lot lovers; someone to move the campus closer to Doric Hall;a job for Charles Van Doren with the English department; a motor scooter for the campus Marshall;something of beauty for Dr. Jarrett. A solid gold engraved door for the Legislature Room; somescholarships for social rompers; elevator shoes for Dean Mac; a surplus of $$$ for the ASB; a happyvacation for my favorite Collegian reporter; some wedding belles for the Bachelor's club; good pep bandmusic for the cheer leaders to dance to; throat tonic for Christmas serenaders; something arid fordramatics; more vacation trips for the Union Board; yellow and white note pads for the Legislature to playwith; a dictionary of sarcasm for the Collegian. And a Merry Christmas to all the students and staff atWestern Washington college. Plus hope for finals; we hope to see you next quarter. ---------- Collegian - 1959 December 17 - Page 9 ---------- By THE EDITOR I'm just a student, just a student, he thought. That's all I have to be; that's all I will be. ''Hark, the Herald Angels sing, glory to the new-born king . . . " Glory to the new born . . . it's stupid,stupid, stupid. Why all the trouble, why don't they let things alone, why in the hell does everything haveto be mixed up? "Peace on earth and mercy mild, God and sinners . . . " The carolers were coming upthe street now, moving onto the campus, approaching closer. He wanted to shout out, to tell them allwhere to go, what to do, what to do, to do. Last night in the little coffee house down the street (coffeehouse they called it now) he had heard the poet, and he had seen the girls sit fascinated ("why doessomebody give up a normal life to read poetry? Isn't it wonderful?"). He had picked up the magazine andread where a teacher in New York had quit his job because the principal demanded lesson plans and theteacher had labeled them stupid. ("When I am in the classroom, I am the authority.") "Silent night, holynight, all is calm . . . " Two days ago he had sat in on a student-faculty meeting where a professor hadsaid, ' 'of course I don't believe in God; I send my children to church because I know it will be the safestthing for them." Talk, talk. That was the emphasis now. Attend this, attend that. Think, boy, think. Whatwas that some other professor had said--"We're living in a world of academic schizophrenia"? My God,what is the world coming to? " . . . all is bright, round yon virgin . . . " The carolers were on the pavement now, approaching the building next to which he was standing. Sing, you fools, sing. Pull up your littlecollars, smile pretty, stare off into space and sing. Is that all you can do? Of course God will protect you. Of course; he protects us all--isn't that what we're about to celebrate? Or is it? Who has ever seen God--and why must God fit what we seem to want him to fit? Are you sure there is a God? I'm not." My God,he was beginning to listen to that gibberish; it was beginning to repeat itself in his mind. But it wouldn't be long now--not long. There would be only two more quarters to go and he would have the degree, and nomatter what they said about God, schizophrenia and ---------- Collegian - 1959 December 17 - Page 10 ---------- beat poets, it wouldn't matter. He would have the degree. " . . . mother and child, holy infant so tender and . . ." Mild. Mild. Why don't they sing it a little faster? Just step up the beat. Pick up the pace. It's therhythm that counts. Rhythm. My God, "there's rhythm in that painting;" that's what he had actually heard, on this campus, in the coffee shop, where one hundred idiots actually turned out to hear what apsychiatrist, an art professor and a minister had to say about twelve garish blobs of color plastered up onthe walls. Garish. No, he was beginning to pick up the words, too. What is this world coming to? It wasn't this way before. "God rest ye merry gentlemen, let nothing you dismay. Only six months ago he hadwalked this same campus, before the art works were displayed, before the meetings were being held,before he saw the professors running frantically around, now claiming to be "intellectuals--there's value inthinking." So many had changed color so fast; it was remarkable. It used to be pretty peaceful. If youattended class, if you did the lesson plans, if you passed the tests, there were no questions. You couldgo on your way, live your own life, attend your own parties, move in your own circles, and it didn't matter.When you got that degree, you would be safe. (continued on page 12) ---------- Collegian - 1959 December 17 - Page 12 ---------- For Jesus Christ our Saviour was born on Christmas day . . . God, what a mess the world is in.Khruschev raving in Moscow, De Gualle upsetting the continent, and Ike jumping on planes and carrying"the tidings of peace, the great peace messenger" (courtesy of the Hearst chain), while committeesinvestigate Charles Van Doren to see if he's honest and thinks about it. Honest. My God, Does it matter?Money is what counts and everybody knows it. Then here's this new fellow, with the red hair, comingalong, saying "college is not a social romp," and "I want students to think." Well, we'll see. And anyway,it won't matter soon. As soon as I have that degree, these ideas, these people, they won't mean a thing. I don't plan to think. I don't care. It doesn't matter. "Son of God loves pure light . . . " For Chrissake, whydon't they shut up? How do they know there's a God. Have they ever really thought about it? I wonder.What is the world coming to? He shrugged his shoulders, turned and walked into the brightly lit building,passing the Christmas tree to his right, covered with blue lights reflecting on the student art display on the wall, and headed for the coffee shop. It was 8 p.m. and in the room next door a seminar was being held.A professor was telling students that people should think about beliefs, about their whole world. Nothing,he said, is too sacred to wonder about. Outside the carolers still sang. "It came upon the midnight clear. . .

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

Chairman Jung ruled ag WESTERN VOTERS will face a APPROVAL to present the Rabourn's point of order. WESTERNVOTERS will face a constitutional amendment at the Homecoming election, which will be held probablyon Nov. 10. The amendment, as presented by the Student Legislature Wednesday evening, will read:"to be eligible to apply for the position for (sic) president, a student must have completed at least sixquarters of full-time resident college work, at least three quarters of which must be at WWCE." Ifapproved, a transfer student would become eligible to run for the presidency with the abovecombination of full-time quarters. Full-time is defined as a quarter with 12 credit hours. amendment tothe voters was unanimous on the part of the Legislature; but the pre-ballot-ing discussion was spirited. L E G I S L A T O R DAVE Amos moved first. He proposed to amend Article 6, Section A of the ASBbylaws by inserting after paragraph one: "Homecoming elections shall be considered generalelections^." Legislator Jack Rabourn rose to a point of order, saying the Legislature is not allowed tochange a bylaw unless the Student Body delegates this authority. Amos came back by citingArticle 9, Sectioii A of the bylaws authorizing the BOC (Legislature) to make laws. Chairman Jung ruledagainst Rabourn's subsequent appeal of the decision failed to obtain a second. THEN ON thematter of considering Homecoming a general election, the vote was 7-5 in favor. This ended the realdissention, which was evidenced by the following positions: Dave Amos: (in favor of Homecoming being a general election) Everybody votes (at the election.) It's a safety valve for the general elections. It's up tothe election committee to publicize (the election)."

The funds will be borrowed against the future income of the statein the same manner individuals borrow money from a bank. By bringing new construction to this areajobs will be created. The jobs in turn will bring about an increase in city revenue. Through the ForensicsClub, the Western student body was given a brief talk on Referendum 10 during the 9 a.m. classMonday. The students were urged to give their full support to the issue by voting and, if under votingage, by writing home to gain the support of their parents. Under President Bob Gus-tavson, the club hasbeen an outstanding supporter of the Referendum. Of the Referendum, Mr. Mel-vin A. Allen,placement director and faculty coordinator for the measure said, "The Building program at Western andat every other state institution for the years ahead depends upon passage of Referendum 10. I amconvinced that the measure can pass. I am also convinced that it will pass only if every person whofavors the measure makes sure to vote for it. Active support from every student at Western is needed." Several Bellingham organizations are giving their endorsements to the Referendum.

We encourage interested students to attend ourmeetings which are held at 4 p.m. Tuesdays, in the Student Center." Joanne, a sophomore, hasbackground working last year on the Finance Committee. Studying in the teacher-educationcurriculum, she has three minors, one of which is mathematics. Helping Joanne on the FinanceCommitte are her secretary, D a r I e n e Fitzpatrich; Nancy Parker, representative to the Legislature;and the committee members. H. K. Karason, assistant professor of education and psychology, is thefaculty adviser. JOANNE OUTLINED the duties of the committee which involved helping the Legislatureand departmental heads in planning the budget for the entire school year, including the summerterm. After the budgets have been planned, the Finance Committee is responsible to see that they are followed throughout the year. Another important function of the Finance Committee is to approve all of the requisitions presented by the departmental heads. The plan for approval was revised last winterquarter by the legislature and will again be in effect this year. There is a bulletin board in the StudentCenter for requisitions to be posted. In order to be approved they must (1) include a cost-price, or atleast an estimate of the cost (2) be requisitioned from the proper category (3) have the code number ofthe category marked on it (4) be a legitimate expenditure from the ASB budget, and (5) show that thereare sufficient funds in the account to cover the expenditure.

Kickoff time is slated for 8 p.m. atBattersby field. The Thunderbirds, who recently won their first Evergreen Conference contest in nearlythree years by defeating College of Puget Sound, will be after their second win of the season. TheBirds came out on the short end of a 39-7 count against Western last year. The men to watch in theUBC backfield are Jack Hen-wood and Don Vassos. Henwood was the top ground gainer for the Birdslast year and was chosen on the second team Evergreen Conference all-star eleven. He ran from thehalfback slot last year, but has been switched to quarterback this season. Vassos' strong point isspeed, and he is a dangerous breakaway runner. The Thunderbirds are rather inexperienced in the line with the exception of the tackle spot, where there are three returning veterans. Top man in thatposition is Roy Jokanovich, a three year monogram winner, who was all-conference honorablemention last season. ON THE WESTERN side of By DOUG SIMPSON Poor officiating cost the Viks atleast one touchdown last Saturday. The same official called six 15 yard penalties, all in the fourthquarter. Penalties totaled 120 yards against Western, and only 5 yards against PLC. Pacific Lutheranplayed an inspired game for their homecoming but could not match the Viking ground game. FredEmerson and Al DeCoria, who have been out with injuries the past few weeks both saw limited actionagainst the Lutes. Emerson was in only for pass plays, while DeCoria was used only on defense. SamMartin, who had been playing an outstanding game, received a knee injury in the second quarter andmissed the remainder of the game. Fortunately the injury was not too serious and Martin may be able toplay against British Columbia tomorrow. Denny Sheppard is the only starting back who has not beeninjured. Girls who like football players had better hurry, because there are only three or four single men in the starting line-up. All but one of the married starters has been injured this season, while none of thesingle players have been injured. Quite a coincidence1. Intramural basketball started Tuesday, andthere are some pretty fair ball clubs playing this fall. If you don't have anything to do, why not take in agame? It would be well worth your time. There are 30 teams entered in five leagues. Western s defensereturned to its form displayed in the Eastern game three weeks ago. Pacific Lutheran gained only 31yards rushing against the Viks' forward wall. Ed Melbourne and Charlie Johnson were outstanding inbottling up the Lutes' advances. For a 240 pounder, Melbourne is quite durable, having played 50 minutes or better in several games this season. The Thunderbirds of UBC are having their best season in ages.Two weeks ago they were leading the Evergreen Conference in total offense, which proves their offensiveability. However the Birds have not met up with,a defense with the likes of Western's, and this will causetheir downfall. With Fred Emerson ready to start toting the mail again, the Viks will be up to nearly fullpotential. I look for the Viks to beat the Birds, 20-7. the fence, the Viks will be at full strength for the firsttime in nearly a month, with exception of halfback Sam Martin, who was injured in the PLC contest.Martin, however, may be back in time for the game tomorrow. Both Al DeCoria and Fred Emerson, whosaw limited action against the Lutes, should be back in top shape for this game. The Viking line is alsoin top shape for the battle, with Jerry Beringer, who was injured against Eastern, back in good form.Other Norsemen to watch are Denny Johnson, Ed Melbourne and Jack Sim in the line, Len Gargarello, a frosh who played an outstanding game last week, Denny Sheppard, and Tom Emerson among thebacks. Jacobs New j, ayvee Coach W E S T E R N ' S NEW assistant basketball coach Bob Jacobs isa comparative newcomer to the Viking campus, but he is no stranger in Whatcom county. Jacobsattended Mt. Baker High School in Deming where he lettered in football, basketball, baseball andtrack. He was an All-County halfback in his senior year and participated in the 1947 and 1948 StateBasketball Tournaments. He is a former pupil of Jack Hubbard, playing under him during his senioryear in high school. JACOBS MOVED on to Wash-igton State where he received a bachelor of sciencedegree in 1953. From 1953 to 1956, Jacobs was a pilot in the Air Force. After being discharged hewent back to Mount Baker as a junior high and high school teacher. He also was an assistant coachin football and basketball. â€” "Our junior varsity squad seems FRED EMERSON, Western's Little Ail-American halfback candidate, to have plenty of hustle this year will return to the Viking lineup tomorrowagainst UBC. and plenty of desire to win." he (Photo by John Zuankh) concluded.

The game saw Fred Emerson used sparingly, and the Vikings continued to be effective on defense. Western opened thescoring-midway in the first quarter when Tom Emerson swept his own left end for 8 yards and thetouchdown. The short burst climaxed a 79-yard drive and put the Viks on top, 6-0. PLC came right backthe minute they got their hands on the ball, moving 58 yards in ten plays. John Mitchell finished the drive by going the final 9 yards from spread formation. The conversion made the score 7-8 in favor of theLutes at the half. PLAGUED BY penalties most of the third quarter, the Viks finally broke through thestubborn Lute defense late in the quarter. Western tackle Charlie Johnson picked off a PLC aerial and was downed immediately on the PLC 32-yardline. Western went to their grinding single-wing formation,and began pounding at the PLC forward wall. Eight plays later Len Gargarello was booming in for theclincher from 4 yards out. Defense on the part of the Viks continues to look sharp, but in spoiling theLutes' homecoming game Western might have lost the services of halfback Sam Martin for the nextgame against UBC. Martin was carried from the field after helping to spark the first scoring drive by theViks in the first quarter. WESTERN NOW has a 3-0. mark in the Evergreen standings, and has UBCto hurdle before taking on undefeated Central in the crucial game that will go a long way in deciding thisseason's champions. Fred Emerson, who saw limited action against the Lutes, will be ready for thethree important upcoming games. UBC .has one of their best teams in years, although some windwas taken out of their sails last week by the Whitworth Pirates in Spokane. The Pirates humiliated the "Birds," 28-7, and UBC will be out to regain lost prestige against Western this weekend. If FredEmerson is able to see full-time duty, Western's offense will be the threat it was early in the season,and UBC should be the fifth victim of the season for the Viks; if not, then a tight game seems in theoffing. ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1958 October 31 - Page 5 ---------- October 31, 1958 WESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAN Page 5 WColIegian -â€”~~ legislators PutPolitics Before Student's Interest on Amendment STUDENT GOVERNMENT'S "New Look" appeared "alittle tarnished Wednesday evening following the second consecutive week of bitter debate and behind-the- scenes maneuvering. Claims and counter-claims were issued by opposing camps over a purposedconstitutional change. One group was solidly entrenched behind Jack Rabourn, their champion of thehour, and the quite-as-stubborn second group was united with Al Jung and Kirby Cleveland. Rabourn hasasserted Jung and Cleveland were using the proposal for pushing a transfer student for the presidency.Jung has claimed the opposition was opposing it for personal reasons. The acceptance of the measurecaused several observers and Legislators to remark bitterly of "Jung's rubber-stamp Legislature andJudicial." This is not a split that will heal easily. BY MAKING THE proposal a political issue, both sidesfailed to see the obvious value of the amendment. Acceptance by the voters will allow 6% of the StudentBody to run for president who have previously been disqualified because of the six-quarter residencerequirement at Western. Under the present constitution anyone who attends another college oruniversity for one year cannot apply. The amendment would require only three quarters residence work atWestern and three more at another institution. The Collegian suggests that the voter not be influenced by petty politics in Student Government but vote for the amendment on its merits. WHE ASB PresidentComes Back Fighting; Jung Denounces Building of Personal T by dave amos Before I start anything new this week I may as well clear up a point that has some Highland Hall people upset. Last week it wasstated in this column that several HH men were standing on a table emitting "Tom Dooley." This was amisstatement; they were neither ON the table nor were they UNDER the table. They were standing in aquite orderly fashion BESIDE the table. Good grief, I'm glad that's cleared up! There was a ratherhumorous happening last week during the Western-PLC football game. I was watching the game on TV(there was one in the Lounge that had the game), when the game was halted momentarily because of adog on the playing field. The cameraman dutifully followed said hound with the camera. The dog calmlytrotted to about the 50 yard line when he decided it was time for a call to nature. 15 seconds and 50laughs later the cameraman woke up to the situation and beamed the camera back to the line ofscrimmage. TV is too grand! Several WWCE students were complaining about being booted off ofSehome Hill late Friday evening by the local Gendarmes. One guy stated that the man who tapped oh hiswindow and asked him to leave sounded rather apologetic. The last car off "the hill" that night was thepolice auto. Culture lovers rebel! Can it be that Sehome's beautiful night view is to be withheld from thepopulace forever! Tune in next week. By that time I might be energetic enough to call downtown and findout what it's all about . . . PRANKSTERS: Just, a note to those who wish to pull a couple of pranks oncampus Halloween nightâ€”but that sort of thing will be impractical this year. I spotted a note in DeanMacDonald's office asking for people to sign up to watch the campus that night. They've made a regularjob out of the thing. Oh cruel world! Gone is the day of the Halloween prankster! roum By Neil Clough ieivy Perhaps, this statement which appeared in the Collegian last year is most fitting as the beginning ofthe policy of the ASB Executive,â€”"After the smoke clears away at the end of 1958-59, Western will find that it has gone through a period it can never see again. It may see years of more expansion, moremoney being spent, and more students graduating, but it will never again experience such years asthese." Thus I am writing with the purpose of clarification to give meaning and interpretation to thephilosophy of the words ASB 1953-59. I have often been warned that it is dangerous to be serious in such writings, as the public will question your motives and design. This is the very essence of communication. Let the public interpret, create discussion and opinion! If there are issues upon which the Legislatureshould be taking action and because of lack of responsibility or other reasons aren't doing anything, ask your representatives, and have them take a stand on issues that you consider important. Perhaps oneof the most often misused words in the English language is the common term "democracy" used inrelation to student government. You would think by now that all of us would know what-it means. Yet theword means all things to all people and one can only guess the meaning when he knows something ofthe experience and motives of the person using the word. Properly used, the term is a beautiful andpregnant symbol of ideas and ideals, matched only by a few words like love, motherhood and freedom. Inmouths of the boisterous or the demagogue the symbol becomes the instrument of deception andtrickery, and is used to cover up all sorts of motives. Often the purpose behind the term is the veryantithesis-of the word. Thus let the smoke clear in advance; let us reason and set aside ambition andlook to the future of a student government as an academic conceptâ€”not that of the current. mad race to oblivion in haste to build the personal "I." AL JUNG ASB President Letter to the Editor To the Editor: Iwrite in regard to Mr. "Sensationalist" Lyle Price's report (?) of last week's Legislature meeting. In thefuture, if his mistakes cannot be avoided, please confine Mr. Price, his opinions, and his gossip to theeditorial page, where they can be read in proper setting. In regard to my stand on the proposedamendment, I feel that the presentation of the amendment to the voters on the Homecoming ballot is a legal question and should be considered as to its legality under our new constitution. It shouldcertainly not be considered in the way in which it will affect my political future. The amendment itself hasnot even been discussed by the Legislature. PERTAINING TO THE comment that I am- a possibleASB presidential candidate, I will say that I have considered the matter seriously, but have not reached adecision as yet.

They say that this is an important issue, if this is soimportant why wasn't it thought of at the time the constitution was drawn up. As far is I can see there isonly one answer to this question. There are people in student government who have apparently come upwith some Hotdog friend of theirs whom they want to slip into office; therefore they're proposing anamendment to the constitution. Just as I've stated before, they're a clannish power-hungry little groupwhose only thought in mind is to help themselves with little or no thought whatsoever of helping thestudents. It's no wonder there is no interest in student government at Western. No decent self-respectingstudent would want to be associated with this group of narrow minded .-. .!!

Barney Goltz, Student Union Committeeadviser, states that only a clarification with the HHFA pertaining to interim financing for construction yetremains before construction can proceed on the Student Union Building. The Science Building hasalready received the go-ahead. Mr.. Goltz assured us that the green light may come at any minute. In the absence of activity on the construction site, activity is much more apparent in the Union Committeerooms.

Bellingham, Washington Acting Editorâ€”Ken RobertsonAssociate Editorsâ€”Howard De Witt, Doug Simpson ESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAN REVIEWSURPRISE A - L Speaker Ignored, Insulted By STACY TUCKER Hark, you masses of asses . . . Whydid only 100 people attend the A-L lecture Tuesday morning? Everyone thought, no doubt, that he wouldwitness a dull talk by a dull journalist in which nothing new would be said. Everyone was quite right inhis assumption. The ramblings of Wil-helm Oltmans contained no thoughts that were not all too commonknowledge . . . things that you and I have known for oh so long! Let us consider the topic ofpresidential elections, in his words. "It is a well known fact that we live in a Democracy . . . All who so desire may vote . . . the majority rules. We all know, however, that the majority is a bunch ofincompetent idiots!" But this is all too common knowledge . . . Consider how our glorious president iselected. "Women vote for the man they would most like to be married to." According to Oltmans,Stevenson did not have a chance what with Ike and Mamie and the grandchildren running against him."What kind of a husband would a divorced man be in the first place?" This all boils down to the fact that"the American woman should never have been granted the right to vote." The butcher-bastard talkspeace . . . Let us move on to international relations. Who among us does not know that the wholeworld is a mess? America has given "who knows how many lives that Fascism might be killed inGermany and Italy. And now we give money to support it in Italy and Portugal!" Khruschev . . . "thebutcher-fcastard of Budapest now gets the red carpet treatment and talks of peace. Why? He is afraidthat he can not overpower America in war and vice versa." Ach! We are not afraid of Russia? We areAmericans! God is on our side. Why then, did a man faint at the thought of a missile taking but tenminutes to reach New York from Moscow? It happened at one of Oltman's lectures. He wonders thathe was not sued. "Nowhere but in the west can you be sued by your best friend." If the reader is notbecoming bored with the recapitulation of this all too common knowledge I shall continue. A biologicalfool That the whole world (Bellingham included) is in a mess is quite widely known. What? EvenAmerica is a mess? Yes, one big mess! Why does everyone hate us? Because we are the big unclewith the money behind the blunders November 13, 1959 ---------- Collegian - 1959 November 13 - Page 3 ---------- of our allies. We supply the money for ill-fated ventures of nations like France. We should be ashamed to even have them in our guest book! Anyone who is not a biological fool would know better than to set out upon the ventures that Prance does, Olt-mans said. I must concludeâ€” 'You will treat me better . . .'Yes, I am teing ironic and poking fun at every student who is reading this. The reception that this speaker got here was rotten. He is a distinguished man with something to say . . . Everyone ignored him. Ourhistory department ignored his of'er to (free of charge) sit in on their classes, he said. It is no smallwonder that Olt-mans went off to Bellingham High School with a group of high school students, saying to them, "You will treat me better than these people." 'Ptece *Â£ ^ofie , , , By BOB STEVENSON,Collegian Artist, Columnist We are neck deep in the machine age and it has only a foot or so to gobefore it completely dominates us. Oh, great leader, automation, with your electronic computers,your automatic pilots and electronic brains: do we have to be a product of your environment? The onlygood which could -possibly come of this is that an exchange system could be worked out for a fewWestern coeds: an electronic brain for the one they are originally equipped with. The machine age isslowly creeping into our college on the hill. In the co-op and coffee shop they have cashregistermonsters perched on the counter leering at everyone. You give the operator a bill and after she pressesthe proper buttons an abominable clanging takes place while it computes the change and kicks it outinto a tray in front of you. It's so impersonal. The Japanese, I understand, will be next to send a rocket to the moon. They are going to build it out of old G.I. beer cans. I wish Western students would stoptrying to imitate Shelly Ber-man from morning to night. Every time I turn around someone is spying,"Oh really,". "Fine, thank you," and "I'm maimed." Now he has a new recording out and the epidemic will probably go on for- For Legislators â€” A Lesson from H mer: The sirens called and the sailors listened,desperately wanting to follow. Homer would have seen the plot-line clearly, a transfer student pointedout to the Collegian last week. The young lady mentioned had just been to an ASB Legislature meeting where she had seen Western's student ship of state plowing through the waves. She wasn'timpressedâ€”except by the roles of the sailors and the sirens. She felt the two advisers had the studentgroup completely enchanted. "I have never seen a student group where the faculty members socompletely dominated the actions. If they would be quiet for a while and let the students blunder forthemselves, legislators might have a chance to learn from their own experience. Perhaps the role of thefaculty advisers should be re-examined or the government turned over to them. If its purpose is efficiency, this would be fine. If its purpose is to let students learn how to govern, then they should be given achance to do something besides listen." The trouble is that legislators don't HAVE to listen only. The fact that they are verbally overpowered by faculty members is that they seldom rise to the challenge. It istrue that if one's words are not slightly intelligent, a faculty adviser may cram them down his throat, butsomewhere in the group there must be a spark of courage to try. It would help legislators if they woulddo some footwork, or use their eyes and ears, before attending meetings. The advisers do. Newlegislators are now in the majorityâ€”they also do the least talking. It might be interesting for them toknow how a student who has never had contact with Western government views them and the wholegroup, because she feels their roles are too fitting. And finally when they came to Circe's island, theenchantress turned them all into pigs. IBB â€¢Hill ;MII "That's the third 8 o'clock he's missed this weekand he doesn't even know it!' ever.

COLLEGIAN PAGES: Low lll-Founded Trash To the Collegian: "Freshman and transfer students . . . SLOPPY"? This letter is writtenin open protest of a certain Collegian columnist who has recently been stretching his "Piece of Rope."The Collegian, when making this column available, surely was quite confident of the adult discretion ofits columnist. I am sure it did not realize that an upper classman "adult" would have the short-sightedprejudice to suppose that the responsibility for a sloppy coffee lounge could possibly lie entirely withthe freshman and transfer students on campus. It occurs to me that if this is an example of the talentand the ability of the Collegian staff that it is perhaps time for a precise change. With the dawn of a newera on Western's campusâ€”new president, SUB, and Science Buildingâ€”I would like to stop seeing thesame low, ill-founded type of trash that repeatedly finds its way to the Collegian's unfortunate pages. Ithink the time for "poison pen" journalism is in high school and not on the college campus. I don'tthink college is made up entirely of stabilized sophomores, juniors and seniors, but rather the spiritedfreshman and transfer students who provide the true impetus and dynamics of a college campus.This does not mean the coffee lounge is for the sole use of freshman and transfer students but for thebenefit of all. I think the coffee cup problem involves every single person on Western's campusregardless of class, and this includes you, Mr. Stevenson. Respectfully submitted. Paul Koroscil(People who comment on the "unfortunate" pages of the Collegian CAN do something about it. If theyreally think changes should be made, we invite them to join the staff, where they can eventually workto the top and make any changes they desire. From this staff comes all the "poison pen"materialâ€”except letters to the editor.â€”Editor.)

This writer is going to give you his impressions of what went on. A late afternoonsun shone strongly through the large windows of the new Student Union Building as it picked up thegrain of the large teakwood table and the color in the gold and gray rug. This was the setting, as themembers of the Legislature filed in to take their places in the conference room for another Wednesdayafternoon tussle. Mr. Dodd Moved . . . Mr. Dodd moved to dispsnse with the reading of the minutes andwas stopped cold by Dr. Murray, ,shov i".g that it v/as going to be anoLher one of those meetings. Thedissertat'on that followed was on whether a member could dispense with the reading of the minutes oradopt the minutes without reading them. Dr. Murray held that the latter was the proper way so Mr. Doddmoved to adopt. The minutes were read. They were then adopted after Dr. Cederstrom corrected the spelling. The first order of business on finance took approximately 45 minutes. What it boiled down to is that Mr. Jerry Baker was asking the Legislature for backing, but was told that he would have to gothrough the Co-op committee. At times open debate or argument broke out but the gavel remainedsilent. 'Oh Piddle' Mr. Rabourn made his Union Board report on the extension of coffee shop hours anda request for funds for additional equipment for the U n i on Building. The equipment includedtypewriters and filing cabinets for the offices and a stereo for the music lounge. One of thetypewriters was to be an electric portable and Dr. Murray asked "Why an electric, for gosh sakes?" Mr.Rabourn said that it was for efficiency. Dr. Murray came back with "Oh piddle." The stereo went downto defeat with one of the classic statements of all sane reason. Mr. Mills said, "I don't think thestudents would have the quality of records to play on it." (Mr. Mills ran for office on the platform ofrepresenting the student body. We wonder if he consulted everyone on the quality of his records.) Therest of the office equipment was purchased. Employing the Singers . . . Mr. Bob Storms asked theLegislature for more money since the dance band had added two singers to its program. TheLegislature decided to immediate problem. A "naturalistic" drama, it is very easy to play on the level ofJack Webb's Dragnet. At this level it is very poor; it would be degrading to the "Wild Duck" on the stage. Though exaggerated, the characters portray people as they think, talk, and act. By walking in thecorridors on the campus, one can observe the personalities of most of the characters in the play. How can you say it's funny when the final curtain is drawn down over the body of a young girl? This isOlympian laughterâ€”the laughter of the gods at man's pitiful attempts to get along with others and hisstupid hu- WESTERN BAND AT HOMECOMING The song is done . . . but the memory? cut out onemixer so the band could employ the singers. The meeting was adjourned. Something seemed out ofplace as this writer watched the meeting. I think it was looking to the green wood for signs of smoldering and seeing every spark go discreetly out. Only one member of this governing body seems to be doingany kind of a job. I am giving Mr. Mike Barnhart a vote of appreciation for the preparation of diggingbehind the facts before each meeting. I wonder if we gave the other members a shovel, if they wouldtake the hint or would look forward to a ground breaking ceremony? If ignorance is bliss, themembers should be happy. PLAY Ironing Out Problems "The quick change from comedy to tragedyand the in-between stages are extremely difficult for the actor to get across," stated Dr. William Gregoryas he explained the "Wild Duck" cast's man reactions to the problems of life. The fourteen-year-old girlshot herself over nothing. With two weeks to go, Dr. Gregory expects to iron out the problems, though the production isn't moving along as rapidly as hoped. Getting under the lines seems to be the mainobstacle of the cast, as the realization of the tremendous job before them becomes apparent. STUDENT WIVES Club More Active A demonstration of floral arrangements and decorations for Christmas willbe given at the December meeting (Dec. 2, 7:30 p.m. in room 201 of the I.A.

The ensemble will appear at WWCE on Tuesday, Nov. 17. The original quartet was organizedby Otto Feld in Hungary, where it won first prize at the Sopron Music Festival a few months after itsinception. Subsequently it won recognition both in music festivals and concert fields withappearances and radio recitals in Vienna, Salzburg, Zunich, Frankfort, Berlin, Cologne and Paris.Assisted by Harold L. Zellerbach and other patrons of music, the University of Redlands, California,invited the members of the Feld group to leave Austria, their place of refuge from communism, and come to the United States to re-establish themselves in professional music. The group accepted the invitationto become quartet-in-residence at Redlands in September, 1958, and began immediately on arrival aseries of concerts throughout California, arranged for them before they had been heard in America.Members of the quartet are Otto Feld, founder and first violin; Jonas Forgacs, second violin; and GyorgySzende, viola, all from Hungary; and Wladyslaw Przybyla, cello, from Poland. Rabourn Reveals Theme Behind the desk of the Union Board office on the top floor of the S.U.B. sat chairman Jack Rabourn. Inbetween telephone calls, people coming in and out, and workmen crawling through the of "ice window, Jack revealed that the theme for the dedication of the new Student Union is "Living Design." Areadedications will first be made in different sections of the building, climaxed by the formal dedication onDecember 6, featuring out of state speakers. Efforts are being made to obtain a traveling art exhibit fordedication week. In the future the board is planning on having an information booth in the main lobbyof the S.U.B.

(THISWEEK'S COVER STORY) DAMIELS HALL In Another World By PAUL MacBETH By now everyone atWestern must be acquainted with the "Campus Serenaders," otherwise known as the "boys fromDaniels Hall." This group of casuals walked off with the Homecoming Skit Night competition as well as the residence display race. House President Nygel Adams accounts for the success of the group bysaying: "We are in another world down thsreâ€”from isolation comes originality in individualism." Asidefrom being isolated, the dif-ferents go to class occasionally, and says Adams, "about half of our 28 boys take music courses." The Daniels Hall group are known to most girls on and off the campus as theserenaders who frequently visit women's houses with a display of five guitars, one mandolin banjo, tenharmonicas, one clarinet, and several operatic voices. On Saturday nights a few of these way-outsmay be seen in performance at the Viking. Persons attending Homecoming Skit Night got a taste ofwhat goes on at Daniels Hall as the beaus sang ten "original" verses to the tune of "Traveling On."Adams says the group took 14 minutes to think of those challenging verses, and one hour topractice. He added, "as you can tell, we're not always out to lunch." While in the phase of deephypothetical t h o u g h t , the serenaders thought of, according to them, a real original idea for ahouse display. At completion time, the two-story, block-type Daniels Hall, looked like a colis-seum. Abalcony was seen with a moving thumbâ€”pointing down of course. In the arena were several afterdinner companions such as Huckleberry Hound, Road-runner, Snuffy Smith, the alligator from Pogo,Digger O'Dell, Nero, a Central Wildcat, Sarge from Beetle Bailey, and several mighty Vikings. Whilethe thumb was swinging up and downâ€”one of those mighty Vikings swung a mighty hatchet on thehead of a helpless Wildcat. The overall theme was entitled "Contemporary Rome." Adams disclosedthat the display in its entirety was not wholly in continuity as every original idea from each originalDanielite was injected. Â« * . i . * Â« . - . . . . . . . . .

An end hascome to the frenzy and exuberance known as Homecoming 1959. Rome has fallen, the gods are in theirplaces once again. The memory lingers. Happy, joyous, unending hours of Roman splendor that wereenjoyed by both students and alumni. Behind the scenes, the story is not over; not until the last scroll is gone, until the last bill is paid, the last decoration uprooted and the last 'thank you' sent. The studentwill remember Homecoming 1959 for a little while. So much enthusiasm cannot be soon forgotten.As Rome was not built in a day, neither were the plans for the gala Roman affair. A spark was lit with the Coronation Assembly, with suspense being prevalent everywhere. One by one the princesses werenamed: Audrey Foster, Sue Johnston, Mary Ann Bosnich, and Gail Cooper. Then the moment of destiny for the new Sigrid XXII, when M.C. Jerry Yarborough announced that Peggy Owner would wear thecoveted crown and reign over her Roman subjects for the weekend festivities. The spark broke into aflame of enthusiasm as the Bonfire and Rally actually gave flame to the Homecoming picture. Theflame was fed with the fuel of laughter and applause that rang from the Auditorium as a half-dozenCaesars and many more toga-topped Latins performed before an enthusiastic audience that completelyfilled the room. The minstrels from Daniels Hall were accorded top laurels for their entertainment. Anenthralled crowd watched the marvels of juggler Roger Dollarhyde, winner of the individual actcompetition. About the campus and vicinity were many excellent house displays, depicting Romanfountains, the burning of Rome as Nero fiddled, and other Roman glimpses. Downtown businesswindows were filled with clever displays, giving to the entire town the Roman thought. And the townwitnessed a splendid parade, that gave full evidence to the hard work done by such organizations as theSophomore class, whose entry was judged best. To many spectators as well as team members, thegame was the best effort of the Western squad in many years. A resounding 27-13 win over theWildcats gave the Viking supporters every reason to be happy. The flame of Homecoming 1959 haderupted. Simmering into embers, the gala Homecoming Ball paid final tribute to its queen, Peggy Owner.

NEW STANDARD Must Pass NewExam "This college, as well as other similar institutions, has long been criticized for graduatingpeople who either will not or cannot use their mother tongue (in writing) with reasonable effectiveness . .." With these words, Dean of Students Merle Kuder announced this week that a new college standardwould be implemented immediately. "A student will actually have to demonstrate this competencybefore he is qualified for student teaching. In general, the time is set toward the end of the sophomoreyear since many students begin their first student teaching soon after." Applications for the test willgo through the Bureau of Research; there will be no fee. The Mother Tongue on File Anyone who haspassed English 220 WESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAN when it was a required course will not have to pass the test: Others will, the Dean said. "The test consists of three parts: objective items dealingwith good usage and form; a spelling test (words taken from Pollock's University spelling list; and atheme." The English department has placed themes on file in the Library showing samples of topicsand generally indicating standards that will be required. "The themes will contain examples of both goodand poor writing." If a student fails the test, it can be taken at the regularly scheduled time insubsequent quarters. With these words, the Dean of Students put the new standard into effect, andthe College announced that: STUDENTS T A K I N G THE NEW STUDENT TEACHING ENGLISHSTANDARD TEST MUST APPLY to the Bureau of Research by 4 p.m. Wednesday, November 18 toestablish their eligibility. The test will be given Saturday, November 21, in Old Main (room to bedesignated later.) Time was short but the mother tongue would immediately become a requirement.Page 7 ---------- Collegian - 1959 November 13 - Page 8 ---------- CULTURE COMMENT Circulation Has Increased Sunday's Social Romp By BUDD MORISETTE TheSaga Pood Service is certainly proving to be an important improvement over last year's (ugh!) cuisine,but no matter how good anything is, there will still be constructive eriti-. cisms (sometimes known asgripes). Lately, there has been a proclamation which states that, "The Sunday noon meal will beconsidered as a dress-up affair. Men will wear suits or slacks and sport coat." This has been criticizedas being unfair by some of the leading members of MRH and Highland Hall. Such illustrious leaders as"Tank," "Animal," "Big Ed," the "Nose," and many others thought that this was slightly unfair because,in Ted "Tank" Smthers' own words, "I can't see taking my tray through the 'slop room' with my goodthreads on." "Going through the "slop room," is actually the act of bringing the emptied tray back tothe Tray Return Room where you are just as likely as not to be squirted with a stray tray hose, dip yourelbow in greasy eating-utensils, or haphazardly nuzzle up to leftover stew giblets which have drippedinvitingly over the side of the receiving counter. These acts could be responsible for some highlyunwanted cleaning bills. THE DARK AGES This past Sunday, the appropriate style of clothing wasworn to dinner at MRH. Also, most of the student appearances were quite neat, but a minor revolt was staged in that a few inmates were adorned with costumes of, shall it be said, varied hues. Bob "Tiger" Ogden made his debut in a pair of "Big Ed" Mebourne's pants. "Big Ed" wore a few of "Tiger's"accoutrements such as the "coat with the shoulder-length sleeves" and other enhancing garments."Easy Ed" Vadset made the hit of the show with his "bebop togs." His taste in colors was, in theleast, abominable. There were about ten to twelve contestants in this struggle for "acutetastelessness." These people were later interviewed. THE VOICE OF THE PEOPLE Jerry "Animal"Baker . . . "After a hard night of stargazing, I find it rather difficult to rise by noon, let alone rise in fulldress." Jerry "Nose" Rabdau . . . "We wear suits at home on Sundays?" Bill "Retread" Treadwell . . ."College is not a social romp . . . Mass participation of putting on suits (to give a downtown restaurantimpression) is absurd." Leo Dodd . . . "The heck with culture . . . Let's have better food!" The pointmade by all, though, was that of going through the tray room with their good suits on. THERENAISSANCE OR DEAN MAC COMES THROUGH After all the wild, uninhibited demonstrations byhostile students, this week Dean MacDonald came through with a heretofore unprecedented solutionwhich was so contemporaryâ€” so wide in scope that we decided to "put it on Sehome and see if itbounces." He decided to have the Saga boys bus us. ^Ipiiilipillil i i l l l l l l l ll fcpi|piÂ«!iasl* STUDENTUNION Be a Lounge Rat By GORDY MILLS Are you inhibitive? Do you need a little social prestige?

From the way they looked out thereSaturday, the Vikings can very well be compared with last year's championship club. Though they lackthe real triple threat man like Fred Emerson, a backfield of Martin, Ladines, and Gargarello, run by eitherof two top quarterbacks, is tough to stop. And speaking of quarterbacks, just how does one choosebetween Hansen and Ringenbach? Each completed five of eight passes Saturday and each has over 250passing yards to his credit for the season. Individually, Ladines is the top rusher for the squad, and withhis 137 yard output last week, the big fullback should be second or third in conference rushing statistics. There may be harder tackling ball clubs in the conference but this writer hasn't seen them. Looking backat the Central game, there are two examples that really illustrated this point. Sam Martin was the boy who turned in the hardest one of the day when he hit a Wildcat receiver just as that poor unsuspecting ladcaught a pass. That kid must have felt like a truck had rolled over him. The other example occurred earlyin the contest when Doug Ringenbach clobbered Central fullback Larry Worrell, a 5'8", 220 poundpowerhouse. Ringenbach didn't tackle Worrell; he literally smashed him to the ground with a viciousshoulder block. Before we get off the subject of football; have you ever wondered how Steve Hansen kicks off all the way to the end zone with only a three step approach to the ball? It doesn't seem possible, butbasketball is fast approaching the limelight on the Western campus. Last Saturday morning coach JackHubbard ran his '59-'60 Viking round bailers through their first public scrimmage of the season. Theworkout took the form of a varsity versus JV game, and when the contest drew to an end the varsity wasin front 75-60. From the looks of the workout, spectators at the Viking games this year can expect a fairly deadly exhibition of shooting, as four of the five top scorers hit fifty percent or better. Ron Crowe led thefield with 14 points on six for eleven from- the field and a pair of charity tosses. Jack Prince, a JV transferfrom Grays Harbor Junior College, collected 13 on four for eight from the field and five free throws. EdVadset was the only one who didn't hit fifty percent as he got 12 points on four for 13 and four foul shots.Jerry Meurs, the other JV stalwart of the day collected 11 points while big Jim Greer picked up ten on four for seven from the field and two charity throws. Other scorers were Gary Mose with nine, Mike Kirk andKeith Kingsbury with eight each and Terry Clayton with seven. Bud Bloch, Bob Gilda and Clayton led therebounders with nine each. The Viks should start with one of their tallest squads in recent years withGreer (no relation to the writer) at 6'7", Clayton and Bloch at 6'5", Gilda, Mose, and Crowe at 6'3" and fiveor six others over six feet. Defensively, the squad didn't look too sharp, but what can one expect from the first real workout of the season. Besides, defense is usually the last phase of the game to get ironed outand the Norsemen still have nearly three weeks before their openers in the Totem Tourney at UBC.Usually unheralded, always unrewarded, and completely ignored so far this year by this newspaper(?)â€”After all, I have to slam somebody!!â€”is the intramural program. In intramural bowling, after fourweeks of play, a group of young collegiate gentlemen known as the "Beer Frames" have a 10-2 record totop all teams. The two top keglers in the league so far are Larry Dillman of the Little Viks, with a 183average and a 210 top game and Don White of the Head Pins with a 181 average and a high game of 206. In intramural basketball, the Nymphs and the Chinese Bandits are undefeated in the A league with 3-0and 2-0 records respectively, IVCF No. 1 is on top in the B league, the Hustlers and Terrace Hall lead theC leaguers and Norsemen's Inn has a 3-0 record on the D league. Top individual scorers so far includeDick Stark, Andy Anderson, Gil Dobbe, and Dave Johnson. Stark picked up 34 counters for the TKBs intheir 56-55 victory over the Sweatsox, while Dobbe and Johnson collected 26 and 22 respectively for theBeatniks as they topped Alpine Court 68-40. Anderson hit his 22 point effort for the Norsemen. Page10 WESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAN November 13, 1959 ---------- Collegian - 1959 November 13 - Page 11 ---------- Remember Last Year Western's now potent Vikings, reminiscent of last year's conference champions, stormed to a 27-13 victory over Central last Saturday before a Homecoming crowd of nearly 3,000. Theoffensive minded Viks put together scoring drives of 99, 93, 90, and 41 yards as they scored in eachperiod against the favored Wildcats. Big Ron Ladines, the Norsemen's top ground gainer, added 137yards and a pair of touchdowns to his total, while Sam Martin and Len Gargarello added 52 and 78 yards respectively to their totals. Steve Hansen and Doug Ring-enbach each connected on five out of eightaerials for a combined total of 158 yards. The Viks first big drive started after a Central punt was blowndead on the Western seven. Ringenbach, alternating his plays beautifully, moved the home team 93yards in 12 plays, with Ladines carrying for the score from the one yard line. After a second Wildcat punt fell dead on the one foot line, Hansen took to the air and literally flew the Viks over for their secondtouchdown. The big play was a 32 yard pass from Hansen to Gary Eilers, who made a sensational"alley-oop" catch on the goal line. Then Central, still smarting from their loss to Western last year, came back with a pair of rapid scores, with freshman halfback Harvey Rath getting credit for all 12 points.The Cats got one just before the half and the other right after the second half kick-off. Western, at thistime led only 14-13, due to Hansen's two PATs. Western roared back for their third score, again withRingenbach at the throttle, as Ladines finished the 90 yard drive with a one yard plunge. Hansen, goingfor his ninth try for point in eleven attempts, had his kick blocked and the Viks led 20-13. The finalscoring drive of the afternoon ended when Gargarello went over from the six after a 41 yard series.Hansen made his kick and the final score read 27-13. Western gained 432 yards total offense; nearlyas much as they gained in their first three games this season. They collected 25 first downs, 17rushing and eight through the air. STATISTICS Ladines Ranks High Ron Ladines's 137 yards againstCentral last Saturday brought his season's total to 420 yards gained in 83 carries good for 5.1 yardsper carry. Before this outburst the sophomore fullback was fourth in the conference November 13, 1959ACTION AT HOMECOMING Before 3,000, Ringenbach at the throttle in this department, but nowprobably will be considerably higher. Sam Martin, senior halfback, is second in rushing with 253 yards in 44 carries. Sophomore Lenny Gargarello, has averaged 4.3 on 168 yards in 39 carries. Freshmanfullback Jim Mc-cuen has gained 82 yards on 21 rushes for a 3.9 average. In the passing department,junior Steve Hansen leads with 23 completions in 58 attempts for 339 yards and three touchdowns. He has completed 39.6% of his tosses. Starting quarterback Doug Ringenbach, a freshman from Foster,has connected with 17 of his 46 aerial attempts for 264 yards and one touchdown. Gargarello paces thepass receivers with seven catches for 191 yards and 27.3 yards per catch. End Gary Moore and Ladines are runners-up in this department with six catches, while Martin and frosh end Bob Plotts arepressing with five catches each. The top scorer is Ladines, who has scored six touchdowns, fiverunningâ€” one on a pass, for 36 points. Gargarello has 18 points on three touchdowns, and Hansenhas 16 points on two field goals and ten of 12 PAT attempts. Jack Halliday leads the pass defenderswith five interceptions, which he has run back 104 yards. Ringenbach has picked off three opposingaerials for 135 yards. Martin paces the squad in both kick-off and punt returns with a 26 yard average on five returns in the former, and a 14.6 average for five returns in the latter. GYMNASIUM An AttractiveAddition Construction for the new gymnasium will begin during Christmas vacation, Athletic DirectorCharles Lappenbusch reported Monday. "Bids will be taken WESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAN onDecember 2nd, and the building is contracted for completion in 365 days." "The building will be anattractive addition to the campus," stated Dr. James Jarrett. The two-story addition will be constructed to the east and south of the current structure. The dimensions will be roughly 241' x .116'. The mainentrance will be on the east end, but there will also :be., entrances on the Campus Drive side, and tothe swimming pool wing. :'.. The upper floor. will contain the basketball court '(estimated seatingcapacity four thousand) which will be in the center of two- lateral courts, also running laterallyi.Originallyit had been planned to have, triple rollbacks and a 5,000 capacity,- but instead there will be only doublerollbacks and therefore probably closer .to.a 4,000 capacity. Facilities will be: available for not onlybasketball, but also handball, volleyball, badminton, (gymnastics, wrestling and boxing and alsotennis and archery. Lappenbusch commented on the "Psychology of Progression" when he wasinterviewed. When Lappy first came to Western in 1933 the coaches office and the locker room wereabout three steps apart and were located where the ski shop is now. When the coaches were movedacross the hall, where the Co-op is now, this seemed to be quite. distant. But when the entire program,was moved to where it is now, people wondered why they were put way, out. in the "swampy edge of the campus," "The thing is," Lappy declared, "people just don't think in terms of the future. Perhaps weshould be even farther away than we are, what with more new buildings to be built in the future. Athletics belong on the periphery where there is more room." Page 11 ---------- Collegian - 1959 November 13 - Page 12 ---------- TEACHING Communist in the Class? "Should Communists be allowed to teach in our colleges anduniversities?" This was the topic for a panel discussion group of a Speech 200 class, this week, but itsoon became a community issue, too. Interviewing members of the local press, student Gary Odegaardtalked to Bill Fowler, city editor of the Bell-ingham Herald. Fowler said that he was against it in publicinstitutions, but that we have no business objecting to it in private institutions. Citing the Smith Act of1940 which made it a crime to conspire to teach and advocate the violent overthrow of our government, he stated that a true communist couldn't help but advocate the overthrow of our government.Odegaard next proceeded to the Pioneer Printing Co. offices where he found the location of theBellingham Labor News and its' editor, Charles E. King. When he asked him his opinion on the subject,King replied, "That's quite a question."- (That's what all the editors said.) After, a little thought, however,he replied that it might not be a bad idea, arid that we should not be afraid of communism if ourcapitalistic system is so. good. Ken Robertson, editor of the Collegian, gave the same opinion asKing. He added, "We are in college to learn with an open mind, not a closed narrow mind." He thought that a few communist teachers in each institution of higher learning would at least be interesting andthat it would probably do much more good than harm. Mrs. H. J. Christensen, editor of the "SumasNews," (Sumas is Odegaard's home town, 26 miles northeast of Bellingham) gave this statement, "Anysmall seed from a communistic theory or practice a professor may favorâ€” we are indulging in wishfulthinking if we believe he won't drop it in the classroom." "All of the editors gave some interestingopinions and reasons," Odegaard said. As for â€¢' his own, he believes that he would go along withKing and Robertson.- "If our capitalistic system is so good, we should not be afraid of a few communist teachers in each college and university. We should be in college with an open mind to learn new ideas.Our freedom of democracy allows, us' this open mind. We certainly don't have to be swayed by the newideas.". The panel discussion itself brought forth a possible solution to the problemâ€” havingexchange teachers between the U.S.' and U.S.S.R. "Maybe none of the opinions and i_;:sons arevalid, but it certainly makes for interesting discussion," Odegaard said Tuesday as he told theCollegian of his project^ OFFICIAL COLLEGE CALENDAR Sunday, Nov. 15...

They are very grateful for your spirited cheeringand loyal support through thick and thin. The Vikings found the UBC backs rougher and harder-hittingthan any they had met prior to.that game. The mud, of course, didn't help matters any as it made themslippery and thus more elusive. Statistically the game was a toss-up, but Tom Emerson's toe proved thedifference. Denny Sheppard, probably the best fullback in the conference, was the workhorse of theViking attack, carrying 20 times for 72 yards. Shep, for the second straight year, is among the top fiveball carriers in the conference and certainly deserves to make the All-Conference team, an honor which he did not achieve last season. Sunday is becoming the sports fan's favorite day to watch television.Featured throughout the* afternoon are pro football, pro basketball, and films of both Washington andWashington State games of the previous day. Ray Ciszek's unpublicized, if not unheard of, cross-country team waxed Seattle Pacific College last Saturday. Don Tretreway won the 4-mile run with a time of 22minutes, one second. Tomorrow the team â€” Trethewey, Knute Frostad, Dave Page, Bob Jones, andConny Lauridenâ€”meets in the junior division, under 20 years of age, of the Pacific NorthwestChampionships in Vancouver. Anyone interested in turning out for the swimming team may start working out at the pool in the afternoons. Chuck Stutz is training the squad until coach John Kulbitski is availableat the conclusion of football season. The Viking junior varsity concluded their season last Saturday witha 20-19 setback at the hands of the Monroe Reformatory. The defeat placed their season's mark at twowins and three losses. Tomorrow's game with Central is the most crucial game this season in theconference. Both the Wildcats and the Viks are undefeated in league play. Central has now won 12straight, and with their conference championship on the line, will be trying for the unlucky number of 13.Fred Emerson, who had zvater on the knee earlier in the week, has been pronounced fit for the gametomorrow. This will be a boon to the Viking offensive, for Central's pass defense has proven itselfvulnerable. Emerson is the best passer on the team,, and should be able to penetrate the wildcatsecondary with his tosses. I have picked the winner of each game so far this season; and superstition,certainly not common sense, has me going out on a limb and picking the Viks to edge Central intomorrow's big one, 21-20. Cross your fingers everyone! WESTERN SET the stage for the big game withCentral by slipping by the University of British Columbia, 20-19, in a muddy, break-infested game atBattersby field. The highly rated UBC offense lived up to its laurels a^nd almost turned the tables onthe hard-pressed Vikings. The stout Western defense had their hands full in attempting to contain theThunderbird ground game. TOM EMERSON set up the Viks first touchdown in the first quarter when hereturned a UBC punt. 26 yards to the Canadian 19 yard-line. On the next play, Sheppard lugged it tothe 10, and Len Gargarellp. boomed the final 10 yards for the score. Emerson's conversion made it 7-0.UBC TIED IT UP in the second quarter, marching 63 yards \with Don-Vassos gomg the final" 4 yards.The drive gave indications of the UBC running attack that was to move the rest of the afternoon.Western wasted no time in going ahead. They took the opening kick-off and fought 60 yards alternatingfrom the single-wing to the "T." Sheppard blasted over from the 1 yard-line and Emerson made it 14-7with his kick. UBC capitalized on a break late in the second quarter for their second touchdown. TomEmerson fumbled a punt, and UBC recovered on the Viking 13. Four plays later Wayne Aiken plungedover from the 3. A hard rush on the conversion try forced a wide kick and the Viks left the field leading14-13 at the half. THE THUNDERBIRDS drew first blood in the second half. Garga-rello fumbled theopening kickdff, and the Viks were immediately in the hole. Two plays later Tom Emerson's short punt put the "Birds" in possession on the Vik 22. Six plays later Aiken was squirming over from the 1, andUBC led, 19-14. Western took the ensuing kickoff, and moved 58 yards for their w i n n i n gtouchdown. Sheppard handled most of the ball carrying, and Husel-ton nudged it over from the 1 footline. Emerson's conversion attempt was blocked, but as things turned ' out, it didn't matter. THE VIKSnow cast an eye east of the mountains as they began preparations for the showdown with defendingchampion, Central Washington. Both teams are undefeated in Conference play, and tomorrow's gamewill all but decide the issue. Western took it on the chin from the Wildcats last year, 27-6, in almostthe identical situation as now exists. Western Practices for St. Martins Opener Intramural Sports WITH WINTER SPORTS coming into focus, basketball and bowling have taken over the intramuralspotlight at Western. Basketball season started Oct. 27, with 30 teams slated to play in five differentleagues. Most teams had played just one game as of last Tuesday, with each squad slated to meet once a week. Early leaders in the A league are the Clubfooted Five, Grays Harbor, and the Hapless Hoop-sters. In the B league the Gumshoes have won two games and the Cowpokes have a 1-0 record.

Coach Jack Hubbard's squad hasmainly been concerned with conditioning and defensive drills but starting next week more stress will be placed on offense. Commenting on this year's squad Hubbard stated, "We have better depth atguard this year and more strength at forward. I think this More Sports Page Six year's squad has" thegreatest potential and best looking material of any Western team I've coached." The Vikings open their season at home against St/ Martins on Dec. 1. Seven or eight games are scheduled before league play opens in January.

HUBBARD'S SQUAD is in good physical condition with theexception of Jack DeKubber who has a sprained ankle. It will probably be healed in time for Western'sopener.

JOKE: Have you heard about the two engaged nudists who decided to break it up because they hadbeen seeing too much of each other. It's All in the Game~~a Parable Currently Popular in the ASB bydave amos THERE WAS A FOOTBALL game in Madrid last month. Since it was the first football contest ever played in Madrid, most of the fans did not particu-lary understand what was happening. Spain ismore accustomed to bullfights. Also hard-pressed to, determine what was going on during that timebetween opening kickoff and final gun were the reporters. One ambitious lad with pencil and pad turned in a very creditable job. He omitted only one item: the final score. Reporter Alfonso Granada, to his friends known as Al, did see what was happening in the game. He caught sight of an illegal receiver downfield.He noted two clipping violations, at least five blocking infractions and illegal procedure. The refereescalled penalties for none of these; however it evened out because both sides were equally guilty. Al didhis duty as a reporter. He pointed out the methods of both sides while explaining the game highlights and scoring patterns. However, as was mentioned before, Al left out the final score. From a convertedbullfight stadium in Spain, we jump to a converted gymnasium in Western Washington College. It is nowtermed a Student Center. If what is going on there is a game, it is indeed a very serious game. Let'scall it a meeting of the Legislature. Like reporter Al, the Student Center reporters are sometimes hardpressed to determine what is going on Wednesdays between the first bang of the gavel and the final "Imove to adjourn." Coming out of a coffee conference huddle, the first play might be a committee chieftossing a direct forward pass. This type of play can be seen easily by the players and by the audience.However, a later strategy might be a quarterback sneak which has some of the players and most of theaudience faked out. They know it scored a touchdown, but they are not quite sure how. The reportercannot let the technique of the play slip by. If he has seen the play, he will record exactly whathappened. Perhaps he will need to know more about the maneuver. Then the players, the opposition andthe persons who know the players and the game are asked. If an answer is supplied, the report will statethat J. Campus, an expert of the game, believes the sneak was called because . . . Since J. likes to have friends, he will request that his name not be devulged to the public. Honoring the request, J. becomes a"usually reliable Student Center source." THE REPORTER, using the above technique, is able to present the background of the story without inserting his own ideas; that is, without editorializing. The team maynot be pleased that the secret of the quarterback sneak is revealed. After all, the opposition might getonto the play. But the Fourth Estate is also looking at opposition plays and will present both sides. What will the players say in the locker room? Well . . . I What will they say in public? They are quite apt toaccuse each other of the sneak but both emphatically deny the play themselves. One cannot helpinserting an idea that the reporter just might be less partisan than^ either of the participating factions.One further fact should be mentioned: We give you the final score.â€”Lyle Price The boys at MRH wantme to give them a plug about their mixer* tonight. It'll be at 9 in the Rec hall. Like all our other mixers this quarter, it should be a smashing success. For the Rec hall, most of the mixers have been toosuccessful, as it gets too crowded in the hall, and after the first hour or two it gets a bit tough to breath. Ithas been suggested that the people not dancing should not take up valuable space in that enclosure andshould go outside. Personally, this is one of those comments that somehow manages to go by me. Well, Homecoming is approaching fast on the horizon. The theme is a good one, Dixieland Jubilee, and hasmuch to offer, in a variety of ideas for skits, floats, and house displays.

This year thecandidates for these esteemed positions are more beautiful than everâ€”every year things seem to getbetter and better in this department.

Delegates Return from SUB Meet With 'New Ideas' jbotn tUe Â£tudepit Ceide\ Why shouldwe support the proposed amendment to Article VII of'our Constitution? LET US TAKE a look at theproposed amendment. It reads as follows: "(A) To be eligible to apply for the position president, astudent must have completed at least six quarters of college resident work, three quarters of which mustbe at Western Washington College." Quarters are only arbitrary; however the amendment insures thatthe student running for president would at least be of junior status as does the present constitution.Transfers having one year college work will have the same advantage of learning the personnelrelationship at any college. During the first three college quarters most freshmen learn to work withpeople, while the sophomores usually learn the business aspect of student government. The college hascontinued to attract larger quantities of transfer students with the years, and it will continue to do so.Giving this percentage of persons the eligibility to apply for the presidential position would contribute amore rounded realm of experience â€”different from Western Washington College. HOMECOMING ISCOM'IN: Homecoming activities are on the march from the Kick-off melodrama to the majesticpageantry of this morning's presentation assembly. Ahead of us yet are queen and princess elections,the regal conoration, rally, variety show, grand parade, the football game and the Queen's Ball. A noteconcerning the Variety Show: This will be a combination of skits and superb talents from vocal andmusical participants. Tonight you will dance to the College Dance Band at the MRH Mixer in the RecHall. Saturday night a double feature movie will play at 7 p.m. in the Auditorium. Written on the Windand the Kansas Raiders can be seen for only 15c. Following the movies, Highland Hall will hold a recorddance in its lounge. Taking your car to Central? That's Good!! The band and two rooters' busses are going also. KIKBY CLEVELAND ASB Vice President Letter to the Editor An Open Letter to the Students,By DAVE RETURNING THIS week from Corvalis, Oregon, four members of the Student UnionCommittee prepared to employ newly acquired concepts of Student Union Philosophy to the big jobyet remaining before Western can realize a Student Union. The four were delegates to the eleventhannual regional convention of The Association of College Unions, hosted this year by Oregon StateCollege. Attending panels and seminars on Union philosophy, programming and other related topics,d e l e g a t e s Joann Laulainen, George Yount, Dave Robertson and myself returned with a LASTER ^broadened concept of the roll that a Union should play on a college campus. Last week I had a nearly'green' committee' Now the whole committee is r a t t l i n g off bits of Union philosophy and theory likeold hands. We are now much better prepared for the job ahead. A great deal was gained from, contactswith the leaders in other Union programs. A PICTURE OF Western's proposed Student Union wasdisplayed in Oregon State's Memorial Union building and was received with much enthusiasm by theother delegates at the convention. Last week your Student Legislature approved placing on theHomecoming Ballot a constitutional amendment changing the eligibility requirements for the office of ASB president. The numerous views and accusations on this issue have been enough to completely garblethe basic point of the issue. By changing the requirement from six quarter's residence at Western to sixquarter's college residence, three of which must be at Western, we are allowing transfer studentsâ€”apercentage of the student body becoming larger with each additional yearâ€”to run for the office of ASBpresident. CONTRARY TO THE view indicated by the press-speaking for myself, and I believe themajority of the Legislatureâ€”the vote was cast on the merits of the proposal. Unfortunately it is probablytrue that some individual Legislators voted on this measure for purely personal reasons. I urge that whenyou vote on. this proposed amendment, the points of the issue are kept firmly in mind. The issue at handis not to further "someone's personal ambitions" or to push "some favorite candidate" as has beenindicated by various writers, but rather the question is whether or not you would like to give the transferstudent the opportunity to run for ASB President.

He was nearly a unanimous choice at a halfback slot on last year's Evergreen Conference all-star eleven, and this year is being touted as a potential Little Ail- American. Last week against PLC, Bridges personally accounted for fivetouchdowns and a total of 227 yards. HOWEVER, STOPPING Bridges doesn't mean stopping theWildcats. The Centralites have eight let-termen in backfield spots plus a number of talented transfers.The Wildcats also have eight veterans in the line, led by Rubin Rawley, Larry Maguire, and GaryFredrick. At the ends are lettermen Mike Finnigan and John Wilfong, a transfer from Everett JC. AtWestern the storm clouds of injuries have cleared, and the Viks are in the best physical condition thatthey have been in for the past five weeks. Fred Emerson, the Vikings answer to Bridges, is back in top shape and will be going at full speed for the first time in over a month, as will starting quarterback AlDeCoria. The only thing to mar the almost perfect physical condition of the Viks is the few minor bruisesof some of the Western men. BOTH TEAMS are undefeated in conference play. The Vikings havesuffered defeat only at the hands of a strong Linf ield eleven while Central's record is marred only by a27-27 tie with Humboldt State of Calif. Last week Western squeezed by UBC 20-19, while theWildcats trounced PLC by a 45-13 count.

His voice develops a mind of its own and comes out on an altogether different frequencyfrom what he planned. His body suddenly sprawls all over the place. He is constantly bumping into,falling over and dropping things. And an unmistakable glint comes into his eye. It's that flint we areinterested In here, for it's the magic fleam that makes the world go roundâ€”and roundâ€”and round.Adam had it. Samson had it. Caesar had it. Henry VIII had itâ€”in spades.

Andhere, for the benefit of those who (Courtesy PRECIS Syndicate) TYPEWRITERS Rentals, Sales,Repairs GRIFFITH PRINTING CO. 1420 Cornwall Avenus may be stymied for the moment, they are. 1. BE SAD. This is a subtle approach which, if applied with some imagination, rarely fails. You may act atall times as if you are burdened with a great tragedy in your life. Wrinkle your brow from time to timeand practice before a mirror to achieve a brooding look. If you don't think you quite have it, study portraits of Marlon Brando and Elvis Presley. They have it. When the two of you are listening to music on theradio, turn it off suddenly and go to the window to look at the moon. If it's day time, stare at a distantobject. Try to get a crooked smile to play across your face now and then, too. Few women can resistthe challenge of trying to make you forget your "sorrow." The perfect example of the broodingpursuer is Lord Byron. He dressed in dark clothing, affected a limp bow tie and reckless forelock. Hewas always muttering poetry under his breath and sighing audibly. When asked what was wrong, heoften grew angry. So far as we know, he was actually a very happy personâ€”and a whiz with the ladies.2. BE WELL-INFORMED. Keep your eyes and ears open for amusing anecdotes about famous people;learn the order of the planets according to their distance from the sun; know who the Vice-Presidentwas under Tyler; memorize Babe Ruth's batting . averages for the years 1920-1931; and listen to quizprograms to fill the gaps in your knowledge. Thus armed, you'll feel confident under all circumstancesand talk with an air of authority: No women can resist a man of the world. Case in point: the 18thcentury gent who made it his business to be familiar with literature, music, astronomy, politics,mathematics and commerce. His nameâ€”Giovanni Giacomo Casanova. Any questions? 3. BE WELL-GBOMMED. Keep abreast of the latest in men's fashions. You'd be surprised how many women havebeen lost because the "man fouled up his color combinations, wore a bow tie with a button-downcollar, tramped about in unsigned shoes. A hot shower (then a cold), a close shave and a recenthaircut are musts, too. And while perfume for men is frowned upon in our society, you should apply aftershave lotion to the old map, too. Precedent for this approach is the 19th century sport, George BryanBrummel, better known as Beau Brummel. From Lady Broughmley's diary, Oct. 3, 1813: "Today Mr.Brummel called on us, to pay his respects to Papa. He is a beautiful man and perfection. I think I lovehim." 4. BE SKLENT. Once you learn to keep your mouth shut, you'll be amazed how your stock will goup. Even if you're bursting with information, keep it to yourself. Nod knowingly from time to time.

Two examples cometo mind.â€” Caesar and Napoleon. By ruling the world in which they lived, they won the ladies of theirchoice. However, one ended up assassinated, and the other in exile.

KappaDelta Pi Meet Lebanese Student Talks of America s Near East Policy MENA GHATTAS spoke toKappa Delta Pi members at the regular meeting, Monday, Nov. 3, on the topic, "American Policy in theNear East." He pointed out that many of the problems resulting from outside interference and internaldisturbance are largely due to religious and economic problems. He pointed out the inconsistencies in the policies of the West and the general attitude of the Arabic peoples toward the United Kingdom. Tothe Arabs, said Ghettas, "Colonialism" is a very distasteful word and connotes to the Arab peoplean attitude similar to ''communism" in America. He added that Colonialism is almost synonymouswith the United Kingdom, and since the US has associated herself with â€ž Great Britain in the NearEast situation the US has inherited a certain animosity g e n e r a l ly credited to Great Britain andFrance. AT THE BUSINESS meeting John Gunderson was elected president to succeed Robert Dunlapand Ingeliev Poss Stover was elected vice-president to replace Ted Gladsjo. ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1958 November 7 - Page 8 ---------- Page 8 WESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAN November 7, 1958 McFerrin Pulls Large Crowd"WESTERN IS THE only place I have had to sing in the morning in the last six years.

SaysMore Essential to Varsity Sports By WAYNE EHLERS IT'S TIME TO MAKE A DECISION. Thisschool must provide more athletic scholarships or it faces the prospect of falling still farther behind theother schools in the Evergreen Conference in procurement of good athletes. Varsity baseball andbasketball Coach Jack Hubbard pointed out, "If we are expected to compete with other schools wemust get the material." Hubbard added, "We must make up our minds now either to go after athleteswith a good recruiting program, backed up by scholarships, or quit varsity sports and offer onlyintramural" It has been almost one year since the Board of Control appropriated money for Western'sfirst athletic scholarships; At that time there were many persons supporting such a program and anopposing group. Luckily for Western the students voted in favor of athletics in a special election (orrather two elections). Improvement in the caliber of college sports at this school will take time. RayCiszek, track coach, agrees, "They have been helpful but it takes time to build up a sport. I hope to seemore of these awards for next year." There is general agreement between Coaches Lappenbusch (alsoathletic director), Hub-; bard, Kulbitski and Ciszek that scholarships are a step in the right direction â€”however only a small step. Lappenbusch said he thought that if the students want better athletics heshould be appropriated enough money for his budget first. "It's a matter now of getting more money orpossibly cutting some minor sports." He commented, "I don't like" the idea of cutting the budget withoutcutting the expenditures, because a state institution can't go in the hole." As far back as Lappy canremember, Western has been trying to get a "big man" for basketball to offset the opposition's heightadvantage. The BOC allotted four basketball scholarships last year. One went to 7'2" Gary Nelson but he will need help from . some tall team-matesâ€”team-mates that can only be obtained by scholarships. Hubbard pointed out that last year he had lined up four good prospects and three of them changed theirminds before school started. The reason (?) â€”better offers from other Ever- \ green schools! Kulbitskihad six small grants. One or two mistakes in judging a boy's ability to transfer high school gridirontalents to the college level successfully would " be disastrous. One coach observed that playing -theseother schools was like "standing up against loaded guns with no protection." Nothing could be closerto the truth. THERE IS ONLY ONE WAY it seems to put Western on a par with the other schools of theConference â€”appropriate more money. It's either that, or as Hubbard said, quit varsity sports andemphasize ' only the intramural program. No one interested in sports wants to see that happen,especially a sportswriter. WORRIED: Athletic Director Charles Lappenbusch and Ray Ciszek wonderwhat will happen to varsity sports at Western without more athletic scholarships.

Spring and student elections came to the Central Washington campus this year with suchforce that they almost shook the grass roots. Developments began two weeks ago with the hanging ofCollege President in effigy. A statement to the Associated Press, which carried the story of the effigy-hanging throughout the state, contained a statement by administration sources that the effigy-hangingwas by "a minority group of students" who were displeased with student body elections at the college. Last week the Central newspaper, the Crier, published rules of a new student body election which hadbeen re-scheduled by the Student- Faculty Planning and Coordinating Board and the StudentGovernment Association Council. The Student Government announced in a special meeting that "it be made known that in our official meetings and in performance of our duties as student governmentofficers we WERE NOT influenced or interfered with by the College President or Administration." THESTUDENT GOVERNMENT ALSO DIRECTED THE EDITOR of Central Crier to publicly apologize to allcandidates and the student body for a special extra he had printed and in which he admitted "a straightnews story turned into an editorially slanted story." The student government then stated that "since hisintentions appear to have been innocent of collusion that he be allowed a chance to complete his term of office under the guidance of the Council, the Board of Publications, and the Director of Publications." The secretary of the student body reported that "this was the largest attended SGA meeting of theyear." 'Rustic' Revisions Lakewood Plans Move Ahead FLOWERS Ph. 4999 for every occasion Bay Champion PLANS FOR REVAMPING LAKEWOOD, the College property on Lake Whatcom willdefinitely be out of the planning stage this quarter, according to Bill Siebler, member of the StudentFacilities Committee. At the last Inter-Club Council meeting, organization representatives were urged to let their groups plan a project for improvement of the lake property. Two groups are ready to go aheadwith the renovations. "W" Club is going to put tanks under the float. A springboard will be installed. Thenewly-formed Radio Club will install electricity. While the work is furnished by club members'elbowgrease, money will be provided by the Student Facilities Committee. The Facilities group, underthe chairmanship of Joel Carlson, ASB vice-president, has adopted a 20-year improvement plan forLakewood. By 1977, among other things, there will be a new lodge, tennis courts, and extended with abulkhead, a diving tower, and more picnic facilities. More parking space will be available. Siebler saysthat the group really wants to get to work on the new lodge. He mentioned the possibility of a Norwegianski-lodge type building which is designed somewhat like a' pup tent, with the roof forming two sides ofthe building. Siebler feels that this would save on material. "You don't use the upper parts of the wall inoblong buildings for anything," he stated. "It's just waste space." He added that the lower parts of theroof-walls would be a handy space for storage. Students interested in helping out in a project shouldcontact Carlson or one of the Facilities Committee members.

By KEN ROBERTSON CENSORSHIP-that compact, black, ten-letter forA that Bellinghambecame so conscious of then the local Censor Board was carrying on its [rusade against newsstandmagazinesâ€”has been Nth us for centuries and is not indigenous only Bellingham. Censorship is a word that has given rise to loards, protest groups and moral codes since the |eginnings of society. It is bestknown, however, h the world of books and publications. Presently Jn display in the College library is anexhibition [hat presents the facts that: THE STORY OF LITTLE BLACK SAMBO /as banned fromschools of Rochester, New York, blowing a complaint by the NAACP. HUCKLEBERRY FINN wasbanished,from jhe public library of Concord, New Hampshire lecause it was "trash, and suitable for onlythe gt; llums." THE MERRY ADVENTURES OF ROBIN 100D, was denounced in 1953 by a member If Indiana's State Textbook Commission because If its alleged "Communist doctrines." I Many peopletoday will laugh at these cases |f censorship, but in their day they were no mghing matter. â€¢ â€¢ â€¢Censorship, in fact, has always been a serious Vatter.And in his book THE CENSORSHIP OF OOKS,Walter M. Daniels touches on the Bell- \igham scene when he says that inevitably "Some ersons wouldkeep lurid publications and sen-tional comics off the newsstands and out of he hands of the young." Inthis same book Goodwin B. Watson, pro-ssor of education, Teachers College, Columbia niversity,answers that "the case of censorship shelter children and youth . . . rests upon ychological fallacies." He contends that the aracter and tastes of youth are better formed guidance than protection. "Whatinnocent n'ldren most need is not a sterile environment om which all evidence of birth, lust, violence,isease, prejudice, crime, and death has been |:moved, but help in interpreting the evil which aninescapable part of life." This should come om home, school and churchâ€”not from censor ards, heseems to say. Daniels, in his book, maintains that few ople go so far as to suggest prohibition ofblication of anything; they just want to con-ol its distribution. "Among the advocates of ntrols' of one sortor another, however, it is table that none recognize the need for any striction on their own reading. Allpresent emselves as the protectors of more susceptible id less discerning minds/1 I etter Watch ThatDotted Line' All censorship is based on the First Amendment to the Constitution which states thatCongress ". . . shall make no law . . . abridging the freedom of speech or of the press . . ." This doesnot, however, include the right of publishing obscene material according to modern constitutionalinterpretation. Congressmen continually present bills to control "offensive matter." But the Washington POST has asked: "Who can say what constitutes 'offensive matter' or precisely what degree ofemphasis on crime, violence, and corruption is 'improper'?" â€¢ * * ANOTHER SHOT IN THE ARM FORTHE CENSORSHIP mania in America came when anti-Communism prompted book-burning leagues tocrop up all over. President Eisenhower tried to quell trus when he declared "Don't join the book burners.Don't think you are going to conceal faults by concealing evidence that they ever existed." -. John StuartMill, English philosopher and economist of the 19th century stated tnat ". . . The peculiar evil of silencingthe expression of opinion is, that it is robbing the human race; posterity as well as the presentgeneration; those who dissent from the opinion, still more than those who hold it. If the opinion is right,they are deprived of the opportunity of exchanging error for truth; if wrong, they lose, what is almost asgreat a benefit, the clearer perception and livelier impression of truth, produced by its collision with error .. ." But W. D. Patterson, associate publisher of the SATURDAY REVIEW probably best summed up the whole argument against censorship, when he wrote: "To trust the judgment of the people-in cultural as in political matters-in a time of stress and suspicion is the real test of a democracy." Of interest to many readers will be the fact that several weeks ago the Bellingham City Council passed an ordinance setting up a Censor Board. Before that time no one knew when, how or why a Censor Board had beenestablished in Bellingham. City hall could not even account for it; it was simply tradtional for a mayor toappoint members to a Censor Board. This is the way it continued until the incident when the Boardtried" to have certain magazines removed from stands; and then criticized the press for 'publicizing'its actions.

"' Dell Abelein Athletics - Should it Get the lion's Share?' "THE TIME HAS COME," THE WALRUS SAID Fifteenpeople gathered around an oak table next week will decide how $80,600 is going to be distributed amongat least ten student-supported programs. One of the highlights of the meeting is certain to be the athleticbudget. "TO TALKOFMAJm^THINGS" There have been many things said about the athletic budget. Thisis the budget of a department that has, during the past few years, demanded more and more money as a necessity to carry out even a moderate program. And the athletic director maintains that if that programis to keep from declining, even more money is going to be needed. It boils down to the fact that a goodathletic program is going to cost a good many dollars. The question then is: DO Western students wanta good program at a higher cost? "OF SHOESâ€”AND SHIPSâ€”AND SEALING WAXâ€”" But there are a few other questions, too. Boards have a tendency to cut athletic budgets in huge chunks, asking fewspecific questions. However, last year's athletic budget audit -t prompts a few specific questions. Is itnecessary to pay ath-, lt;* . letes for small jobs when this money comes from other stumo dents? Are all awards, trips and transportation costs necessary? Is it right to give scholarships to students who dropout of school before they even take part in games? 'Z"dli CABBAGES AND KINGSâ€”" Does it really doany good to cut the athletic budget in the first place? Items in the budget that have been cut the yearbefore inevitably crop up as new requests the next year and they are inevitably granted. Last year's Boardcut athletics several thousand dollars; this year's Board restored it and more. Does the Board have achoice of yes or no? Or does it merely postpone its yes? Someday ifs going to have to be establishedwho's in the driver's seat. If the Board decides yes, all right. But if it decides no, it should mean it. "ANDWHY THE SEA IS BOILING HOTâ€”" In this issue of the Collegian you will read a story in which it isstated that if more scholarships are not given we may as well quit varsity sports and maintain onlyintramurals. This is a far cry from the humble pleas under which scholarships were instituted. Butmaybe dropping varsity athletics would solve the whole problem. At any rate, if varsity sports' life reallyhinges on scholarships, do they necessarily all have to come from student money? Maybe a little varietyin source, would be refreshing. "AND WHETHER PIGS HAVE WINGS." ' A big choice is going to haveto be made next week. Maybe the athletic proponents are right. Maybe we have been flying too high.Trying to give all departments equal monetary consideration seems to result only in equally mediocreresults. And since there is only so much money, maybe some departments ARE more worth development than others, and should receive the lion's share of the budget. If so the Board is going to have to answera big question: Is athletics that department? And do students want a better athletic program at a higherprice to the detriment of other departments? These are the questions the Board must answer.

The baseballcoaches also voted to withdraw locker-door and practice-field courtesies from professional scouts anddiscourage their players from talking to pro representatives. The majors had adopted a college playerrule in 1954 barring pro signing of players after the start of their sophomore year or until they reached 21years old. However, the minor leagues did not accept it. This rule then was considered useless avideliminated by .the majors. The Association announced that it was against the practice of "payinggratuities, bonuses or salaries to college baseball coaches and others in an effort to win their favor andassistance in obtaining outstanding prospective baseball per- Conference Intramural Program to beDrafted The sports end of the conference at Western Washington College this week will be concernedwith drafting an Evergreen Conference-wide intramural program-.

ONE COACH HAS GONE SO FAR AS TO SAY that he'll drop from his squad any player who even talks to a scout without first consulting him. In support ofthe majors, many believe that the colleges have a lot of house cleaning to do. They claim that collegessanction tuition fees for football players and bar the same thing for baseball players. This, they claim,is a very confusing situation. Some say that it should make no difference if a baseball team pays a boy's way through college so long as he does not play professionally until he has graduated. Plans are in the making for a more workable rule that would be acceptable to the Association and to the majors. This,however, may take a long time. MEANWHILE, THE BONUS SIGNING of the college athletes continues, $30,000, $70,000, $100,000! One begins to wonder if he should not raise his son to be a big leagueballplayer. Since the post-war period a pro scout will beat a path to a sub-big-league youngster for hissignatureâ€”not because they want him, but so that their rivals wouldn't get him. MORSE HARDWARECO.

HoUy fowling Up Scon s 3/ ?. ,1 * Hetrozotf By JOHN BETROZOFF THIS IS A GOOD TIME TO PLUG OUR ATHLETI BUDGET a little,since next Wednesday the entire budget w be drawn up and cuts made. It is no secret that the PE progra is one of the most important on campusâ€”indirectly benefiting everyone and directly benefiting 75per cent of the student or better. Our PE program is grozving very rapidly. Right now the athletic dollarsare being stretched pretty tight. There is by no means any surplus anywhere. Next year can only meanmore students in school causing an expansion of the athletic program (guess what else mustexpand then). According to Lappenbusch, the student finance committee recommended a five per cent increase for his athletic budget which he followed in drawing up 1 budget. This seems to be a fairly low increase compared to sor other departments. Therefore, there is definitely no extravagan connected inrequests for next year. This should indicate that cut will be made in the athletic budget (by all means putsoi more in). We are on our way up in athletics. To continue goi up, athletics needs the backing. Wehope athletics gets th backing. ALONG WITH THE BUDGET QUESTION comes the athie field proposal. I don't think I have to say which side of the fer I'm on. The actual work may be far off right now, but this is) very good place to start. The Athletic Committee has been lookif this over for quite some time and things look pretty positn Now the committee wants to explore it even further as a projJ to better the college.However, it is a big issue and will ne) the support of the entire student body. WE PROBABLY HAVE THE BEST SOFTBALL PR\ GRAM IN THE EVERGREEN CONFERENCE. The inter! has been big and thecaliber of softball has been good. Lately hitting has been on top of the pitching a little more than normjbut this has made the games even better. For a spectator, softf is probably more interesting to watch than baseball. The gaJ is faster and usually there are more hits (and errors). Thi seems to be action all thetime. The players take a real interj in the league also. Usually a league has to struggle to play gamesbecause players never show for games. Well, the w| interest (which caused a couple of teams to be leftout) in sc ball isn't falling off.

THEBATMAN STRUCK AT THE BALL. The pitch was a fastball sinker. The ball carommed off the bat and hit home plate, bounding high in the air. At this stage the umpire called "foul ball." When he did so, thebatter who started for first stopped and retraced his steps to the plate to bat again. Hearing the call of"foul ball," the catcher made no play on it. The ball eng-lished off the home plate, landed about a foot infront of home plate, then rolled in the direction of the pitcher's box. It ended up in territory about ten feetin front| home plate. What about it? Try solvinj the problem before looking the answer below. (answer)The umpire was definitely error in calling this play too quicl Hitting the home plate did not maki a foulball.

By NEIL CLOUGH and DOROTHY DIOCLETIAN NOTE TO WESTERN MEN: 200 high school girls are going to be on campus today. We realize that this is the first opportunity for you guys to seesome really good-looking chicks, so don't go out of your headsâ€”just play it cool. It seems that there isso much money in student government's budget control that the student officers voted themselves over$200 to attend a so-called "conference on student government." But what is the reason for taking eveningclothes and bathing suits in such a serious atmosphere? The daily bulletin jestingly intimated that classmeetings were to be held today. If things went as usual, at least enough people showed up tonominate'themselves to the offices open. . Seattle papers reported that the President of CentralWashington College was hung in effigy by a group of unhappy students. It looks like they were justabout at the end of their rope. We've heard that the projector operator at the Saturday night movie is nottoo efficientâ€”seems he gets the reels mixed up casionally. â€¢ â€¢ â€¢ A MARINE HAS BEEN LOSTAT SEA FOR DAYS IN A RUBBER LIFERAFT, when he suddenly awakes to find himself washed uponto the beach of a tropical island. He goes ashore and finds that the only living inhabitant of the island isa beautiful young girlâ€”who is a nun. What happens in a situation like this? There are a lot of possibleanswers, but a uniquely touching one is found in John Huston's recently-released movie, HEAVENKNOWS, MR. ALLISON. LI us ton employs only two actors before the cameras, and the roles played byDeborah Kerr and Robert Mitchum are handled superbly. Mitchum is probably at his best since he beganin movies. The story is. humorous and convincing; at times the cinemascope photography makes you feel that you are actually walking in the cool shadows of the sun-drenched, breeze-wafted palms. Word hasit that next year the minimum grade point average is going to be raised to a 2.0, beginning fall quarter. Ifso, this is a great step forward for Western. / / grade points actually are going up, student governmentmay no longer have any worries about appropriating money to the athletic department. /_" Someone wasseen climbing up the fire escape at Eden's Hall late Tuesday night. We wonder how long the girls kepthim. The administration would probably appreciate it if people would refrain from throwing empty"beverage" bottles in the Bird Sanctuary. We would agree zvith that one. Wouldn't want any of the littlebirdies flying around intoxicated; they might not make it back to Capistrano. I Think that I shall never see A girl refuse a meal that's free A girl whose hungry eyes aren't fixed Upon a drink that's being mixed. Agirl who won't forever wear A bunch of junk to match her hair A girl who looks at boys all day And figuresways to make them pay Girls are loved by jerks like me 'Cause who would want to kiss a tree?

Old Grad' returns to a 'good place Alumni Seekwestertir washingtw Western Washington College, Bellingham, Washington Vol. 11, No. 24^ April 3, 1959 ng By LYLE PRICE A PLAN WHICH WOULD ENRICH THE COFFERS of th lt;* ASB budget, thescholarship fund and the WWC Alumni Association was presented Wednesday to the StudentLegislature. Art Runestrand, president of the Alumni, suggested that the Legislature authorize benefitsfor "matriculated old students" so that the Alumni Association could charge a higher fee for membership. Runestrand felt that the $1 membership fee could be increased to at least $5 if such enticements asfree passes, to Homecoming games and possibly other activities are included. The spokesman addedthat the Legislature and his group could negotiate a division of funds, satisfactory to the College.Explaining that 75 per cent of Alumni funds presently go into scholarships, Runestrand hoped for the $5memberships so that still more money could be used for scholarships. Why? "WE THINK WESTERNIS A GOOD PLACE. The alums want to see more people come here." The alumni president, who is ateacher at Fairhaven Junior High in Bellingham, revealed that his association gave some $900 forscholarships last year. With a grin that suggested that not too long ago he was a student at Western, Runestrand explained what he meant earlier by "matriculated old students." "I think that anyonewho has walked down the halls of Old Main fits the description," he said. Then he explained that an"alum" is considered to be any student who attended Western, regardless of whether he graduated. A reason for this was said to be because some students through the years ("especially depressionyears") had been forced to leave school after one year. With several Legislators and Dr. Keith Murray,adviser, expressing interest in the pro- Â«* gt;- posal, the Legislature voted to â€”-- form a specialcommittee to study and discuss the matter. I t will report to the Legislature in two weeks. While "OldGrad" Runestrand was speaking before the Legislature he commented that "times have changed." , "Ican remember when our government (the BOC) was comprised of seven member* ' and we had noaudience!. Now I've watched you in action and things look different, don*t they sir?" He directed the lastQuestion to Dr. Murray; "Not much," grinned Dr. Murray with a sigh.

The Dave Brubeck quartet began its college concert tours in 1953. Smce then it has played on- most ofthe major U. S. campuses. In 1958 they toured Europe and the middle-East for four months. The majorpart of this tour was sponsored by the U. S. State Department. "We'll bring the Kingston Trio tocampus -~ via our program" These were the words of Ken Haag and Mac Madenwald as they laun-chedinto another quarter'', of their KENY student radio program this week. â€¢ Spring Play Poses RoommateProblem "The work goes on and we're well on our way." These were the words of Jack. Rabourn, ECSAcoordinator as plans for the W'eiiem-sponsored state student government conference April 29, continuedthis week. Five Bellinghamites, two Canadians, one Georgian, and four Washingtonians will make upthe cast of the Spring quarter play, OUT OF THE FRYING PAN, a farce-comedy by Francis Swann. The five Western students from Bellingham are: Sandra Clark, playing Dottie Coburnâ€” a dumb blonde witha real problem; Gretchen Pfueller, playing M a d g e , Dottle's roommate; Gladys McLean, cast asKateâ€” another roommate; E u g e ne Frazier, who plays another of Dottie's roommates â€” George;and Robert Dunlap, cast as the stuffy father of Dottieâ€”not her roommate. One of the Canadians, Dickiiayes will step on stage as a Broadway theatrical producer who has something the girls all want, andthe boys too. The second "Canuck" in the cast is Len Gargarello.who Is cast as the "Second Cop."Charle J. Yarbrough, Jr., (sometimes from Savannah, Ga., npw Bellingham), will play as one ofDottie's roommates. Sue Weidman Murielâ€”who got to be deadâ€”Ardith Lein (the landlady, Mrs.Garnet), Tom Aston (Normanâ€”another roommate), and Jim Herfch (First Cop) play the remainingroles. The scene is set in a New York flat shared by three girls and three fellowsâ€”all sharing expenses (that's all) while trying to break into the theatre business. The time is "now" and the comic interestrevolves around the sudden arrival of Dottie's now dubious, later irate, â€¢ father on the scene. Assisting the Director, William Gregory, will be Pa|ti Eppig, Lauri Spring will handle props, while James MacArthur will be stage manager.

In this edition the subject of EASTER was treated lightlyâ€”to most folks to treat EASTERlightly is to be sacrilegious in the extreme.

Well, here it is spring quarteronce again although you would never.guess it by the weather. For those of you have never experienced a spring quarter at Western let me tell you what it's like. Everyone becomes a disciple of the sun {when it finally appears), you skip your afternoon classes, put-a blanket under one arm and a girl under the otherand head for Teddy Bear Beach. Oh! WaJt! I almost forgot one important stop. You must stop at theclosest supermarket and pick up a beverage of some sort to quench your thirst while at the beach. Imust caution you about the path to Teddy Bear. People have been known to sprain ankles while makingthe trek down. Also, if you are not careful you are liable to shake up your beverage (and this would be amore terrible catastrophe than spraining your ankle). You reach the beach, spread out your blanket,switch on the portable and there you are just as happy as a little clam basking in the sunlight. Onething I want you all to remember while you lie on the beach in the sun (with your arm around that littlehoney) singing "Keg of my heart," is that back on campus there are still some poor unfortunates. Namelythe Spring Sports athletes and also the Profs whose classes you skipped. Think of them withreverence. Speaking of spring sports, both the Varsity Track and Baseball squads made their debutduring spring vacation. - The track team placed second to the UW in a three-way meet at the Universitystadium on Saturday and the baseball squad lost two tough oges in the Seattle Collegiate InvitationalTournament. JOKE: Football season is the only time of year when a man can walk down the street witha blonde on one arm and a blanket on the other without encountering raised eyebrows. ty^'FOJtRESTEditor, the Ubyssey {this feature resurrected froin the Ubyssey for its interest to student teachers) Astudent mob has mutinied! They rose up in broad daylight, overthrew a student teacher, and shouted.intriumph: "tyranny is dead." ; * Wr I saw it happen! It happened to me. "Let's act out this next part ofJulius Caesar," I had told my English 30 class in the middle of the lesson. I had to motivate them. Thesnores from my sponsor teacher could tell me that. "This is the assassination scene. I need-, someassasins. Any volunteers?" Hands shot" up all over the room. Good, good, I thought. I've got themmotivated at last. I've got them thirsty for knowledge. Whoops! Almost forgot rule Two. Review. Set thestage. "You remember," I began, "Julius Caesar is approaching the Senate although his wife had . No,that's wrong. I mustn't TELL. them. I must DRAW OUT the mfdrmatioh from them. "Does anyoneremember,'' r began, and a student tapped an educational psychology textbook knowingly and winked ata friend, "does anyone remember how Calpurnia tried to persuade Caesar not to go to the Senate?" Only one hand.went up. it was a very tired looking boy. t had no choice. â€¢â€¢Well?" I asked: ^.

As I read I could see the^students taking part: iÂ«ere; growing more;, andmore; interested.They spoke.-- their dines quickly, excitedly/T^ere ^ w inuch heavy breathing. Suddenly a great roar went up from the students. "Tyranny is deadf" they shouted; â€¢â€¢.â€¢-.* The class wentwild. The sponsor teacher woke "I think," I said, picking- myself up off the floor, "I think that's just aboutenough; for now; All of you sit down." All assassins but three sat down. "You, too, Cassius!" I ordered.â€¢'You, too, Casca!"- Two more assassins sat down. I looked sternly at theremaining- assasin. "Et tn,Brute," I mumbled. He bowed slightly arid" sat down. â€” l~ "He's the noblest of you all," I told the class. Now it was time for the Big Surprise. Before class I had written questions about the scene on theblackboard and had pulled down the map to hide them. I must motivate this seatwbrk, I told myself. Imust build up suspense. "I wonder why that map is pulled down," I said is Dead' "I wonder what could be behind it." The students glanced at the map with only a modicum of interest. I walked slowly towards it."I'll bet there is something pretty exciting behind that map," I said, getting closer and closer. "I wonderwhat it could possibly be." As I came closer and closer to the map the students appeared to grow moreand more excited. They were almost on the edges o f their seats. "We^ll soon see," I said. A murmur ofexcitement shot through the room as my hand touched the bottom of the map. "As a matter of fact," Isaid, lifting the map slowly with all the showmanship I could muster, "we'll see"â€”and the mumurs rosehigher and higher â€”"right now!" The classroom exploded into laughter. The work was rubbed out. In itsplace a crudely drawn man and the words underneath: "HT, TEACH!" Three girls laughed so hard theywere crying. A boy rolled in the aisle in uncontrollable giggles. The sponsor teacher tried to look sober,finally broke into laughter arid walked out of the room in hysterics. I ioked. sternly at the mob. "I bet youall think you're verry, very funny you little b . . . ." Whoops! Almost forgot rule.Number 3. Also Rules 4, 5,6 and 7. "Continue reading the play," I ordered, "while I write some questions on the board." I beganwriting. I was a quivering, quaking mess completely unnerved by the incident and by the assassinationscene. Suddenly I felt a hand on my back. I jumped a mile. I turned sharply. "What do you want?" Iyelled at a girl who had been laughing particularly hard. "Could I leave the room?" "Why?" I asked. Sheblushed deep red. "Oh," I said quickly. "Oh, yes, of course." ': What a foolish thing to say, I told myself. I must make it up to her. I smiled across the room at her retreating back and said as sweetly as I could:"Hurry back." She turned and glared at me. Then she went out and slammed-the door with great gusto.The door shook. The room shook. I was shaken. I turned to the class. "The questions," I said. I guess we just have time . . ." Just then the bell rang. Students began getting up everywhere. "But the questions .. ." I protested. "â€¢-"â€¢ "Bugger the questions," a boy replied. "Homework," I said. "Must have somehomework. Rule Number 8 says . . ." "Too late, teach!" they said filing out past me. They all walked out, all but one boy who came up to me and patted me tenderly on the back (of course I was taller than hethought) and he said: "Fret not. Like man you speak our tongue, you're one of us. We dig you." Iwatched him walk out. Then I stood trembling waiting for the next English 30 class to come in the door.j4CrÂ§ frmrithe Consumer ~~l850 Grasshoppers roam the Kansas fields and eat the tender grassâ€” Atrivial affair indeed, but what then comes to pass?

Dr.Paul Herbold, director of Forensics, revealed that Western was selected as the tournament site atthe National Tournament held on the Bowling Green State University campus in Ohio, March 22-27.This tournament will involve 15 chapters of Pi Kappa Delta, the national honorary Forensic society, fromWashington, Oregon, Idaho and Montana, and will give Western's students an opportunity to observeat close hand, forensic contest activities.

Another high spot was Alphonse Cimber's solo,"Conversation for Drums." This Haitian drummer, who accompanied the dancers and also appeared assoloist, is known internationally as the "genie of the drums." THE EXCITING BEAT OF THE NATIVEDRUMS in the "Slave Dance" brought back the days when Haiti was in bondage. The struggle forfreedom of the slaves was symbolized in this work. Drawn inland to the backwoods _ andsuperstition-fraught areas of his country, Destine explored and interpreted the native folkways of hispeople. After being initiated into their voodoo cult, he was entrusted with the secret philosophy of thisprimitive faith. Tutored by a voodoo priest, Destine soon learned the throbbing music and dance of theirrituals. Through the dynamism of his performances, Destine has raised this_ forbidden and despisedvoodoo music of Haiti to a high level of art. Plan Funds Sought "WE'LL KNOW IN THE NEXT FEWDAYS," explained B a r n ey Goltz this week, "if we can continue on our schedule for a new women'sdorm by fall, 1960." The director of student affairs said that the College has applied to Washington, D.C, for advance planning funds.

President Predicts Enrollment "I THINK THATENROLLMENT WILL EXCEED 2,200," said college president W. W. Haggard late this week. PresidentHaggard pointed out that the increase over second day enrollment last spring had been 102 students;applying this figure to this quarter's second day enrollment of 2,091, the total number of students atWWCE for Spring would be 2,193. The current trend of gradual increases accounts for the sevenstudents needed to reach Dr. Haggard's predicted total. Of the 2,200 students to be enrolled, it ispredicted that about 2,150 will be full time students. The remainder are special students enrolled for sixhours or less. Fall quarter enrollment (1959) was predicted by the president to exceed 2,450 full timestudents. This figure is well in excess of enrollment forecasts made early this school year by theWashington State Census board. Full time enrollment last fall was 2,320 full time students. Theadvance funds would cover preliminary planning, enabling architect Paul Thiry to continue workingon the building. Goltz said that if the advance funds are not forthcoming soon, the dorm could not stayon its schedule and thus would be postponed at least until fall, 1961. â€¢fTTfft SCHOOLS M i l t N nM COMMVNITISS COLLEGIAN EDITOR KEN ROBERTSON, who resigned then withdrew hisresignation last quarter, made the decision final this week as he submitted his resignation for thequarter to* the ASB Legislature. â€¢ -â€ž I would like . . . to have the responsibility and tensions ofbeing an editor off my shoulders for one quarter so that I can do other work and take part in otheractivities," the editor told the Legislature in his letter of resignation.

By PAT GENSZLEIT ACOLUMBIA LP ENTITLED "Jazz Goes to College"â€”a jazz musician on the Â«over of "Time"magazineâ€” Suddenly the name of Dave Brubeck becomes a household word. He has emerged as"Jazz Personality of the Year" and copped a multitude of honors. The barrier between jazzmenand the ordinary listening public is not broken but it begins to give way a little. The fantastic career ofDave Brubeck was not a thing of chance, a shot in the dark. Here was a carefully trained, very articulate musician. Here was a man that had worked long hours trying to get his music through. The world of jazz needed Brubeck. Progressive jazz was beginning a fantastic growth. Despite this growth therewas a tremendous gap between the musicians and the listeners. Many musicians disliked verbalcontact with the public. Many were not able spokesmen. In Brubeck there were both qualities, but evenmore important, a man with a tremendous talent, a talent he made available to people all over theworld, not just a night club audience, or an unseen audience, that of the record buyer. The B r u b e ck aggregations worked years without recognition. Their audience grew gradually from San Francisco to Los Angeles, Salt Lake, Chicago, and finally New York. "I often didn't make enough to meet travelexpenses," Dave writes, "but each tour was a gamble on the future, I was sure we would gainacceptance if we could just hold out long enough and refuse to compromise." And gain recognitionthey did, a world recognition that even Brubeck himself would not have thought possible. . In 1958 the quartet, featuring Paul Desmond on alto sax, toured Europe and the Middle East on a four month tour which took them into many areas that had never before heard a live jazz performance. Many expected clamor or vulgarity. WHAT THEY GOT WAS UNEXPECTED melody, intricate rhythms, music thatwas lyric, music that was rhythmic and pulsating, music of infinite variety, but good musicâ€”soundmusic with years of structural training behind it. Yet; this music was free and unrestrained. It wasmusic that could not and would not offend the sensitive listener. Yet the combo accomplishedanother mission, one important to us, the often misunderstood American. In Poland one man told him, "Dave, I must agree with you that Poland is the most misunderstood country in the world. ACollegian Roundup Â» Of Campus Doings lt; We realize that we have to be misunderstood. This is thepitiful part of it. If Russia realized how .pro-Western we are we would lose whatever freedom we have.We want freedom as much as you do/' He went on to say how jazz had become the-symbol of freedomin Poland, particularly through the broadcasts of the Voice of America. The Brubeck- quartet with JoeMorelli on drums and Gene Wright on bass have played engagements from Carnegie Hall to the SteveAllen Show. Fortunately for us, he started a movement to reach more and more people through collegetours in 1953. Two of his records resulted from these tours which have taken him to most majorcampuses in the U. S. It seems almost fantastic that we will be allowed to hear this group on our owncampus. JAZZ IS OUR SINGLE NATIVE ART. It is welcomed without reservation abroad. Davewrites, "It would be fatuous of me to pretend to correlate its (the tour's) importance with the billions ofdollars we have spent in restoring nations ravaged by war and in raising the living standards ofunderdeveloped countries, or the day-today spadework of statesmen and diplomates. "But there isno mistaking its effect: it arouses a kinship among peoples; it affords them flashes of recognition ofcOm-n. mon origins,-because the basic gt; relationships to f oik idioms;' and' the forthrightness anddirectness of its appeal are grasped alike by the naive and sophisticated. I remember something,the philosopher Gerald Heard once told me. 'The first thing a man is aware of/ he said, 'is the steadyrhythm of his mother's heartbeat and the last thing he hears before he dies is his own.' Rhythm is thecommon bond of all humanity; it is also the most pronounced and readily understood ingredient ofjazz." IN THESE LAST FEW PARAGRAPHS we get a little of the man, a thinking man disregardingthe common commercial association. In his music we'll find thought as well as some swinging jazz.Starting off a new quarter with new officers and lots of plans are the Edens Hall girls. Recently electedofficers are sophomores Nancy Sherman, president, and Carol Schamer-horn, vice-president. Freshmen elected were Lynn Engelsen, treasurer, and Barbara Wise, secretary. These officers will serve for oneyear while the two social chairmen^ DeAnn Engelsen and Becky Kuhnhausenwill serve for one quarteronly. Plans for the Pansy breakfast, held in honor of the freshmen, are tentatively set for April 19.Upper classmen honor the freshmen annually by hiding potted pansies on the campus and:requiring: the frosh to hunt for them. The girl finding the most pansies is then honored at breakfast.'â€¢' Als6 scheduled for this quarter are tWe 'Wens- Residence Hall- Highland Hallr-Edens picnic, May15; the Mothers' weekend, May 16 and 17; and the Senior Breakfast* May 31.

Closed for the past five years or so, it was once a major-gathering place for Westernites who desired some easy conversation and a quick snack. Jack Coxand Gus Franks, two of the four new owners of the cafe, hope that the Viking regains its position ofpopularity. Located across from North Edens Hall at 627 High St., it has a good chance to do so. It is in an ideal location to catch all of the nearby off-campus students who are too lazy to walk up the hillto the Lounge. Westernites are not known for their a m b i t i o n when it comes to climbing hills.PROVIDING A PLEASANT ATMOSPHERE, the Viking offers 19 cent hamburgers and a mostfantastic baseball game. Besides the economical hamburger there is a considerable variety of food on hand, enough to satisfy most who are looking for a quick snack. For the very hungry customer, Gus and Jack offer a 40 cent de luxe burger. If the weather improves {and it should; it IS Spring Quarter) the cafewill have tables and French ice-cream chairs outside s6 customers will be able, to enjoy the goodweather.: For the future, the owners plan to expand into TidwellY barber shop, knocking but the wall,to give room for more eager customers. Both Cox and Franks expressed having visions of building therear of the. cafe some 60 to 90 feet back- into the property. It's still a vision, though. Because they havejust opened, the first day of the quarter, the cafe hasn't posted any official hours yet. Gus said thatthey'd stick to rather loose hours for the next couple of weeks until they can find out what the :bestbusiness hours will be. He added that if there is good business at one in the morning, the Viking willbe open at one in the morning. Sounds good. Now that you've all read this free advertisement, you cantrot right on down and find out if all this is true. Once you're inside, you can cast your eyeballs above the oven and spot the famous "mustard jars" (to get their license to operate, the owners had to promise notto use the mustard in these jarsâ€”the jars had been in the cafe for at least four years.) 9t' tfe miLocated Across from North Edens Hall Just the place to take your Queen for a snack FEATURES 19c Hamburgers . . . and many other good buys.

Dr. Brewster, business manager of the play, wishes to stress to the students that eachstudent is entitled to a free reserved seat ticket for the production. These tickets can be obtained by the students by presenting their activity cards at the box office in the A-M building any day nextweek. BACKSTAGE WORK on the production is also nearing its dead- While explaining the scenery,he said, "Perhaps the most unusual aspect of the staging is that practically everything is on wheels."He indicated that this greatly reduces the time element in shifting the scenery, which has to be changed seven times. FLANDERS HAS USED, as a basis of his scene design, the style called"expressionism." This style of scene design is a distortion of the realistic scene* Flanders said that withthis type of design, "The scene designer tries to see that the lines of the set are in harmony with theacting to be done. He a t t e m p t s to harmonize the scenery with the acting so that the scenerycarries out the mood and still carries out the demands of the script." To illustrate the idea, he usedthe mountain which is to be used in the play. Only witches are found acting on this mountain, so it isdesigned to give an idea of conflict and unearthliness by having the lines fighting each other. In designing this mountain, Flanders had to give the mountain the desired effect and yet not have it detract fromthe acting which is to be done there. ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1958 December 5 - Page 2 ---------- Page 2 WESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAN December 5, 195 Gov't Discusses A*L ProgramsGerman Consul 'Diplomatic' In Talk to 'Sparse' Group IT WAS A CASE OF MUCH DISCUSSION, andfew formal motions at this Wednesday's meeting of the Student Legislature. No action was taken tochange the present setup of the Artists and Lecturers series and its committee. Legislators expressedvague doubt as to who is on the committee and its membership ratio of faculty and students. There wasmention that of three faculty personnel, two are in the Music Department, one Speech Department.Legislators agreed the present A L program is "heavy," dis- '" agreed about whether or how to intereststudents more in the present program. Some suggested adding lighter entertainment, with such aprogram an addition to the A L, but a separate program. Dr. Keith Murray, faculty adviser, remarkedthat the budget for A L has remained about constant while the Student Body population has doubled.PRECIPITATING THE DISCUSSION was a report by Associated Student Body President Al Jung andVeep Kirby Cleveland. The latter revealed an entertainment circuit is being set up with EvergreenConference colleges and independents to obtain group rates and more opportunity to obtain top flightentertainers. Dance bands, jazz groups, vocalists and gt; such would be procured." Co-ordinating thedates Will be a student at Central Washington College. Dr. Murray, cast in the role of the memberwith senior longevity, said the circuit years ago had left Western with concerts at 4 o'clock onSaturday and dances on Wednesday night. In another entertainment field, card playing at theAuditorium- Music Building lounge came in for some benevolent chastisement. It was thought that someof the players are not doing their part in cleaning up the lounge and are perhaps creating a trafficsnarl by playing during the rush hours between 10 and 1 o'clock. The Legislature was hesitant toinstitute a reform, indicating card playing itself was a matter not inconsistent with the designs of thelounge. The Lounge situation received no formal action, but informally it was suggested that personnelat the Lounge have complete responsibility for cleanliness of the coffee and TV social areas. Ray Knabe, Co-op and Lounge manager, had stated that students are too messy and that rules should beenforced. The Legislature indicated it would look favorably upon new rules suggested by the Loungemanagement, but felt student policemen were not ah answer. Nor was there a real answer to thestudent opinion poll taken recently about the Bookstore, according to poll chairman Dennis Fish. He revealed that 158 of 400 questionnaires had been returned and that the purpose was mainly a test tosee what student participation would be, secondly to get ideas" for the new Bookstore. Fish said "I don'tknow," to the question of the poll's validity and 'benefit. - The Co-op manager and committee are toreceive copies of the report. Publications adviser J a m es Bliss spoke to the Legislature briefly abouthis capacity as adviser. There was discussion of. the autonomy that a Collegian editor . should, or does, have, with especial reference to procedures in handling requisitions. Because he was tied up withESPA Conference spade work, editor Ken Robertson could not attend the meeting. Further discussion of the matter was tabled until both the adviser and editor can appear before the Legislature,possibly next Wednesday. No motion was finalized. SOME $250 WAS ALLOCATED to send atrackman to the NAIA meet in Omaha, Nebraska. It was revealed the man has already gone andreturned. Legislator Fred Emerson said the student had not placed after taking sick, "which wasunfortunate" because his chances had been rated high. By LYLE PRICE TOSSING ASIDE ASCHEDULED SPEECH, Dr. Otto Soltmann, First German Consul at Seattle, considered the topic ofthe hourâ€”Berlinâ€” at an Artists and Lecturers assembly last week. The diplomat's main purposeseemed" to be to* educate his audience, which to a point may have been unnecessary. The auditorium,sprinkled as it was with many empty seats at the 10 o'clock hour, possibly contained a select enough group to have had some knowledge of the history and pressures of the Berlin situation. However, it was worthwhile to get the official German point of view of events made so familiar by the American press.Perhaps what is most surprising is that Dr. Soltmann should have presented West Berlin's position soclosely to what his college audience considered it to be. Also refreshing was to hear someone other than American propagandists slamâ€”or at least slantâ€” a few phrases in the direction of SovietRussia. While the tall, ex-officer was conservative in presenting his opinions, his finesse seemed to lie in presenting his views through the quotes and statements of others. At times Dr. Soltmann appeared to be saying he didn't believe Berlin would be blockaded again. A check of notes, however, turns upthe following statement: "I cannot see anything that it would gain Soviet Russia for advancing one(blockade), for the previous one has utterly failed." What the diplomat had so neatly done was to stepinto the shoes of the other side without really explaining the chances from his point of view. The play left an audience wondering just how he felt and some thinking he had said a blockade was unlikely.

It was the inferred, but not stated; the suggested, but not dogma. A Collegian reporterbriefly interviewed" the consul following the speech and cleared up the point. "I personally do notbelieve in another blockade." By "do not believe in," you mean you don't think another blockade islikely? "No I don't believe they would . . ." answered the diplomat directly. He went on to present areason similar to the lecture comment: "Because I can't see any gain in doing so. The West is fullyprepared to counter any challenge in this respect." THE NEXT LOGICAL QUESTION IS, if not ablockade, why is the city and West being threaten - er? Dr. Soltmann supplied the answer during hislecture. "Mr. Khruschev in his recent speech announced surrender of the control of military transportto Berlin to the East German puppet government. By this attempt he obviously hopes to forceacknowledgement of the East Berlin cabinet." In a cautious understatement, the German First Consulsaid, "I must confess that I am not too optimistic as to the Soviet proposal for a peace conference (overBerlin)." Dr. Soltmann spent the majoj part of his lecture on history, how ever, not speculation. Hedeclarec that Berlin has two administration* working separately from one another/ Moreover, neitherEast noi West Berlin has recovered to the point that West Germany has, according to the speaker,with th( East sector looking "shabby." He added that Berlin was hit no worse than other German citiesduring the war. THE LECTURER'S CONCERN with the economics and the welfare of his people wasquite evident. It is the reviewer's opinion that it would be realistic for Americans: to remember that notype of government has long survived in Germany without giving economic advances Mere artificialdesignations, such as Communism and Capitalism, will not cloak the feelings of Nationalism. To put itmore simply, the Germans take as much pride in being Germans as the Arabs in being Arabs orAmericans in being Americans. Cut it as you will, the strength of "Deutschland uber alles" has lastedthrough two wars. We in this nation call it "looking out for number one." 'COKE" If A KtOISTtREOTWADE-HAHK.

Pacific Lutheran and Bu-chan Bakersclash in the second game. Saturday night Western is slated to play the Lutes of PLC, while Buchanstangles with the CPS Loggers. CPS tied Western for third place in the Evergreen conference lastseason. Hal Ness, a 6' 4" forward, is the sparkplug of the Logger team, but graduation took a heavytoll of last year's squad. This year will probably be a rebuilding year for them. Western beat theLoggers in league play twice last year and will be favored tonight. LAST YEAR'S Conferencechampions, Pacific Lutheran, appear in dismal condition. Figst the Gladiators lost their coach, JackHarsh-man, to Washington State, then Chuck Curtis and Jim Van Beek sustained football injuries(Curtis suffered a broken ankle in the West-ern- PLC football game, and Van Beek acquired a shoulderseparation from intramural football.)

Congratulations to CharlesLappenbusch, Joe Paglia and Red Smith for coaching the College All-Stars to a 19-14 victory over theSeattle Ramblers last Sunday. Paglia organized the contest and persuaded Lappy and Red to assist himin the coaching duties. Two of Stars' touchdowns were scored by Central's Corky Bridges (rememberhim), and the other came on a pass from CPS quarterback Dick Jarvis to ex-Viking end "Mutt' Partlow.Bridges kicked the only extra point for the Stars. Opening up gaping holes in the Rambler defensive linewere Western's guard, Ed Melbourne and Central's tackle Larry Ma-guire. These two were probably themost outstanding linemen in the Evergreen Conference this year. I t seems fishy to me that only twomembers of a co-championship team were able to land spots on either the all offensive or defensiveteams. The two were Dennis Sheppard, offensive fullback, and Melbourne who made both squads as aguard. Certainly Jack Sim deserved a place on one of the squads, if not both. Sim played better than 50minutes a game, and was outstanding both as a center and as a linebacker. Sam Martin as a defensiveback probably had no peer in the league. Honorable mention, bosh! Coach John Kulbitski tells me that he is very proud of his team. Handicapped by injuries to key men most of the year, the squad managed torally with dutch play when the chips were down. It was a great team effort all year long, and the playersworked hard for their deserved co-championship. Much credit is also due to assistant coaches Red Smithand Joe Davies, who did an excellent job scouting the Viking opponents. The Viks are exciting to watch,and should improve a great deal on last year's dismal 7-16 record. The team goes to Blue BarnaclesHave Program BLUE BARNACLES, the swimming club for girls elected their new officers lastWednesday at 4 p.m. There are 42 girls participating in the club, 16 of them are members, and 26 are "Neophytes." The new members have been taken in for the fall quarter. The girls are nowconcentrating Tacoma to play in the Tacoma Invitational Tournament "tonight on synchronized swimmingskills, and tomorrow night. If the Viks are a little less sloppy, and rebound choreography, and variousstunts. a LuUe better they could beat both CPS tonight and PLC tomorrow night.

All over the campus, except for the flagpole that came crashing downthis week. However, with the opening of the new approach to the college, it is now safe to drive to thecollege without turning in your car for a weekly tightening up of the bolts. One can tell t he approach is asuccess, and that it's officially open, because already the Bellingham police department is issuingtickets along the new drive. After our lashing out at the Legislature with forty whips last week, we arehappy to report that they have almost overwhelmed us by not only considering the A and L series, a sore spot for some time, but they are even going to get us on a circuit where we may obtain somepopular talent on campus. The revolution has come. Seriously, we congratulate the Legislature.Though they may not have taken any action, and because of their limit of powers, may not be able to,they at least are discussing and showing their views on something that does interest the people whoelected them. I t is time to do so, and there are many more things they can -discuss besides budgets.There may not be too much they can do, but they can recommend and use the power of their force asrepresentatives of the student body to show where changes can be made, and where studentsympathies lie.

But one night she came in froma date quite disheveled, and it was obvious that the evening hadn't been too platonic. "That poor boy,"she sighed.

We've got a problem,." See note below. by dove amos^ _ / havediscovered that there is mo/e than one lover of Dixieland (or traditional, as you will) jazz here at WesternWashington College. While having a cup of coffee in the lounge, Mr. Flanders of the Speech Departmenttold me that he would like to see. a "Moldy Fig" club formed here on campus. For those who don't knowthe parlance, a moldy fig is one who likes Traditional jazz quite well and prefers it to Modern jazz. Ifanyone is interested, I would suggest that he go see Mr. Flanders and talk it over. He's quite willing tolisten. As a matter of fact, so am I. While talking about clubs, it may be in place to bring up a differentsort of club. Severalâ€¢â€¢ people have mentioned that they would like to see a bridge club inauguratedat Western. As it happens there are several bridge players (it's a card game) in school. What thesepeople would like to see is a college sponsored "club" opened. When I say club I mean that, say once aweek or month, an area or room be opened to bridge players to get together and play bridge at anappointed hour. Then, once a month, or quarter, have a duplicate (get a bridge book and look it u p )tournament held. Al Jung, ASB president, tells me he will be glad to t ry and set up something like this. If by chance you are interested, see Al, after 4 p.m. in his office in room 114 and tell him about it. Ifenough people are interested this idea will become a reality. If you haven't guessed, I happen to be abridge player myself . . . Like the Viking leaning on the "W" at right, we are leaning on a dilemma. Whatto call Amos columnâ€”-that can be printed. Out of Choas? That would not be subtle or diplomatic. Out of Focus? That would be all too true. Off the Cuff â€”of a Blue Blazer? Well, Amos is a member of thatstylish group known as the Legislature.

The Viks broke intoan^early lead in the second half on a pair of quick buckets by Thompson and held a four to six point lead up until the last five minutes. Then, after a racehorse exchange of bad passes and miscues, theRangers came back to within two points. A brace of foul shots and a stall in the last couple of minutessaved the bacon for Western.

Evaluation story on page 3. â€”photograph by KenMcCuiiough Senior Girls Privileged; May Live Off Campus Senior women may live off campusbeginning next fall regardless of whether or not they have reached their twenty-first birthday, announced Dean of Women Lorraine Powers this week. To take advantage of the ruling, women under twenty-oneyears of age must be seniors as determined by the college registrar's office. Dean Powers emphasizedthat senior status was not, in this case, determined by quarters of attendance alone. Prior to theruling, a woman student had to be over twenty-one to live off campus. Women under that age wererequired to domicile at college dormitories" or organized (college approved) houses. This regulation still applies to women who are under-twenty-one years of age and who are not seniors. A specialPersonnel Staff Board composed of Dr. M. F. Kuder (chairman) Dean of Men C. W. McDonald, Dr.Charles Harwood, William O'Neil, and Dean Powers made the ruling in response to requests posed byseveral senior women. The request was transmitted to the administration through the AssociatedWomen Students Organization. Shirer on A lt;SK L Next Tuesday, July 22, William L.

For others, the charge is 25 cents children and50 cents adults. Dr. Berwster stated, "We purposefully kept the charge low so that more people can have the opportunity of seeing live theater." ** Dr. Brewster called the play an imaginative treatment of theCinderella story with which every child is familiar, with a few embellishments.

On no subject doesthis danger press more directly than on that of education." Even in 1834 education was being discussedas hotly as it is now. There were those wanting stability versing those wanting progression. As soon asan opposing line of educational philosophy became strong enough to put doubts in the minds ofteachers and parents, the old philoso-, phies became shaky on their feet and cried out for stabilization.This even happened in the time of Socrates when the Sophists were teaching not only their own ideas oneducation, but for a fee would teach that of the opposing force. This last sounds like our contemporaryproblems. Many teachers will teach under any philosophyâ€” which ever happens to be in force in aparticular district.

Sometimes they don't even know what philosophy they teach, nor understandit. In this day of hot debate in magazines and newspapers where dissatisfied parents seem to vent theirfrustrations, it's time to work toward a type of stabilization. Teachers and parents need to delineateexactly what should be taught in the schools, how much weight should be given to each subject, whataims and goals the schools should have, what part of our cultural heritage should be passed on to theschool children, how much of the students' after-school hours should be supervised by the schools, whatpart should the schools have in character education, what is fundamental, what better way can we handle grading and promotion. Certainly we have been in no great zeal even to cast away what is bad. Surelythe time is ripe. 22 Students Are Attending CampusSchool College students aren't the only ones going to school at Western this summer! Twenty-two seventh and eighth graders are attending classes from9 o'clock until noon at the Campus School.

Evaluation the Northwest Washington Elementary Principals' Association havedone on their research project which was under discussion at Western Washington College last weekhas begun to take shape, according to Dr. Maurice Freehill, Director of Research at the college. Dr.Freehill stated that the main thing the principals have discovered was that people look at himdifferently, depending upon how well they know him and the work that he is doing. He said thatteachers, who know him the best, look upon him as one who sees the whole picture of education, whatthe school- stands for, and the place in the total where their own cjassroom fits. They see him as helpful and kindly, considerate, reasonable, one who keeps things moving along and who will support them.Third grade children look at the principal with a fatherlike way. They see him as an authoritarian, away in which he is not seen by teachers. They see him as one who enters their classroom often, andone who is powerful and king-like. Sixth grade children see him more realistically. He appears to them to be still father-like, but more friendly. They see him as one who enters the clasroom only when there is trouble. Parents, who are least acquainted with the principal, view him as authoritarian, like the bossor manager of a business. They listen to what their children say, and the children have an entirelydifferent view of the importance of their principal, so the impression parents often get from children is notalways in proportion. They judge whether their principal is good or bad upon what their child says. Theyexpect the principal to be something the teachers don't expect or want. The principals at the conference spent their time thinking through which ones of the aptitudes they should try to meet, how theimpressions got in conflict anyway, and how to make their roll more clear and effective. The principalswill be sent a statistical report of the whole outcome of the research by Beginning last week with thecoffee hour, these principals in the three day conference for the Northwest Washington ElementaryPrincipals' Association led discussions on the research they started last the college Research Bureau,and in j summer.

Dr. Freehillstated that the results show clearly that the principals live up to the expectations of those who werepolled, much more than the principals guessed. He said that there was no big difference between whatthey thought the ideal principal should be, and what they thought he actually was. He felt that as aresult of this, the principals can feel more secure and consequently can feel more free to do a goodjob. People are not as critical as the principals might think, he said. They criticize schools in generalin a vague way, but don't criticize their own school specifically. 87 Western Students Make 1958Honor Roll Specials- Fridayâ€”Fried Chicken Dinner....$1.49 Sundayâ€”Turkey Dinner $1.49 Fine Foodat Reasonable Prices 1223 Cornwall Western has 87 students on its honor roll this year, it was found in an announcement by Donald Ferris, Registrar, and Dr. W.

City engineer Ed Camerontold councilmen last Monday that the state had found its preliminary estimate on the approach job willrun some $22,- 500 above the $192,000-plus appropriated by the Legislature; but that there arepossible savings to be made. Further, the state has agreed to call for bids on the entire job rather than doing only part of it. COUNCILMAN CARTER WATSON, Streets Committeeman, said that it was amatter of getting the job only partly done or having the city pick up the tab on the rest. He agreed itwould be within the city's financial ability to agree to guarantee the "over-run". CAMERON GAVE THEcouncil a series of possible places that the $22,500 could be taken care of, stressing that they were all"ifs". He added that he had- a conference with District State Highway Engineer Paul McKay, and thatMcKay told him the state had considered leaving out street-widening work on the first few blockssouth of Holly street on Indian street, and also some work on the south end of the new approach route.BIDS ARE SCHEDULED to be called after condemnation actions are completed, possibly in mid-May.The city will be paying for half the cost of the actual appropriation out of its gasoline tax allocation.Western Washington College, Bellingham, Washington ^m M Vol. L, No. 27 IdH May 2, 1958 Athletes to be introduced Variety show offers frolics FRIDAY, MAY 2â€”A S B M i x er sponsored by MRH.SATURDAY, MAY 3â€”Tennis with PLC, here, 1:00 p.m.; Relays and track with Vancouver, there, 1:30p.m. MONDAY, MAY 5â€”ASB primary elections, Student Center (room 114) Old Main, all day; Tenniswith SPC, here, 1:00 p.m.; UBC Players presentation of "The Importance of Being Ernest,"Auditorium, 8:00 p.m. TUESDAY, MAY 6â€”Joint AWS-Norsemen Variety Show, Auditorium, 10:00 a.m.; Senior Hall and Mathes House Beach Party, A L Series presentation of Jean Erdman, moderndance artist, Auditorium, 8:15 p.m.; IA Spring Banquet.

What or who, then, does a Board of Control member represent? Speaking ideally, herepresents the whole of the Student Body. This, of course, is an impossibility. It is folly to think thatany person is capable of being in constant contact with a majority of the students and being able to formthe many divergent opinions into a pro or con vote. There just isn't enough time nor is there a "studentopinion" to have the ideal become a reality. Rather, the BOC member represents a minority. He is incontact with a minority and he uses that minority to help him form his opinions on how to vote on avariety of issues. This minority group that the B0C member is in contact with is generally students whichhave a semi-interest in what is going on around campus. They give their opinions in conversation over acoke or a cup of coffee in the Lounge, or over the dinner table in one of the dorms. So, in the finalanalysis, the BOC member, at best represents 25 to 50 students. He must be able to dig out andanalyze opinion, and from this know how to vote. The Board member is necessarily handicapped.Sometimes we have Board members that don't even do what has been outlined here. That they got intostudent government is due, for the most part, to the "don't give a damn" attitude of the student, body.One should not vote for Joe because he is well liked, but because he is active and interested in StudentGovernment, willing to give much of his time to doing valuable committee work and to voicing his andothers' opinions at the BOC meetings.â€”D.B.A. Student concepts of Lakewood vary Although he hasyet to assume position as Associated Student Body President, Al Jung showed recently that he hasalready forgotten a campaign promise. Jung listed as a political plank this objective: "To takegovernment to the students through communication." That was February 21, 1958.^ Two months and afew days later (last Friday) Jung stated in the Collegian office that the Board of Control, of which he is avoting member, didn't have to take Student Body opinion into account in .rendering a decision one weekago las,t Wednesday on the Lakewood question. Well, Mr. Jung, you're right. Technically. The BOC isthe representative, governmental organization for students. Unfortunately, the Board members who split the vote 7-6 againsMhe Lake-wod fund seemed to represent only their own interests. How can this be?Four members who voted against the proposal are music minors or majors. This bloc should supportmore interests than the Music Department. However, another minority seems to be the groups who visitLakewood. From Collegian surveys, it seems that the pro-Lakewood segment didn't represent studentopinion either. We asked two juniors recently to locate Lake-wood. One asked if it were near Seattle. The other didn't come that close. Also we talked with a recent transfer to Western. He is a junior and anIndustrial Arts major. The idea of a facility such as Lakewood appealed to him. He added that he is notfamiliar with this area and would like to swim and relax with other college students. However, since hiswife works, he can't go to Lakewood until around 5 p.m. If the area is in the shade then, or soon after, the I-A major would prefer another area. But he said he-would like to use the facility, on Sundays. AnotherWestern student didn't see the need for elaborate facilities; he favored improved ones. It was his opinionthat the cabin floor should be extended and that weekend bus service could be initiated. This is asampling of student opinion. The Board would find that there is a surprising amount of Campus opinion on the7 subject. The opinion should be sought out, as President-elect Jung has promised. This is a properfunction-â€” and a responsibilityâ€” of student government. We of course have our opinion, which waseditorially expressed last issue: Lakewood should be made satisfactory on its present level. â€”LylePrice. Va, n sez 'It's a step to preserve freedom . . .' BY DAVE VAN BKONKHORST First of all, just afew words with regard to Ronn Beams' editorial, in last week's issue of the Collegian; on the distinctionbetween an ethical principle and "a popular fallacy. All p e o p le may, or should, have equal andinalienable rights. This is a philosophical tenet. That all people are created equal in the usual senseof the word, is a fallacy. It's obvious that they are not. For me to say that I am equal to Einstein or Von Neumann vyould not only be egotistical biit an obvious falsehood. How then does this distinction between "equality" and "equal rights" affect any of the arguments that have been set forth concerningthe future of American education? Which is more compatible with the ethical principle of equalrightsâ€”stamping all students out of the same mold, making all students perform at the "average"level of ability; or giving every student the opportunity to learn as much as he is capable of, to perform at the highest level he is capable of attaining? Few educators, if any, would insist that we force anystudent into particular vocations, or particular curriculum But we may well have to follow the Sovietlead in seeing to it that our superior students are adequately encouraged and taught, that theirpotential leadership in every area is given a chance to develop. This is not a proposition ofdemocratic principles, Ronnâ€” it's a necessary step to preserve our freedom. Now that I've gotten thatoff my chest, I'll play columnist and run a plug. The deadline for this quarter's issue of The Writer hasbeen extended until the end of next week. This isue of the magazine is going to be different than theones you have seen in the past. A new type of organization and reproduction means that there is room for more material than ever before. More material means more authors, more variety. Since you stillhave time, why not submit something to the magazine? Surely among the students of Western thereare some who do more than metabolateâ€”some of you must have something to say, to write â€”theeditors of the Writer are looking for your contributions: It's your magazine. This is the EDITORIAL PAGEof THE COLLEGIAN; it is the opinion page of the newspaper, on which will be found our views on anymatters that affect students. Views expressed here are not necessarily those of the CollegeAdministration or the majority of the students. THE COLLEGIAN welcomes student contributions, whichwill be judged on their timeliness and interest, and letters to the editor, which must be limited tf 200words and are subject to editing. mmtmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm "Point-of order, Mister Chairman,point of order." Beams put under attach for flag-waving' stand While being an American like Mr. Beams, I couldn't help noticing that his last editorial was filled with glittering generalities, which tend to start onehumming the "Star Spangled Banner/' or other patriotic ditties. Let me be the last to say that patriotismis nonsense. However, we cannot point to our slowly rotting education system, and claim that it isgood because it is American. Should we import teachers from behind the Iron Curtain? Certainly not!However, the Soviets, as well as other nations on the continent, have some ideas on education that weneedn't adhere to as being the best, but should recognize that they possess some qualities worthy ofnote. That is to say: provide the secondary students with some mental problems other than how toconduct one's self on a date, how to succeed at marriage, or many other such superfluous coursesoffered in the high schools in the nation. Compromise*with the communists is not an answer or even aremote posibility after fighting wars in the defense of the democratic way of life, but ramification of oursecondary educational system is not only an answer, but a necessity. Lefs not become tangled in theweb of our own self-satisfaction by believing that our educational system is infallible because it wasconceived in democracy. Slavery was conceived in democracy.

Is it a representative of the real U.N. and a force to produce policies andresolutions comforting to the United. States and the Western world? The answers are in this story. ByLawrence McCord (ovitch) The People's Republic of Bulgaria delegation from Western WashingtonCollege was very fortunate to have the opportunity to further realistic' policies of the Soviet Union at the Model United Nations held on the campus of the University of Washington last weekend. THEBULGARIAN DELEGATION WAS. LED by Arthur Mafli. Consuls attending were Jane Adams, WernerBarnet, Bernard Durnan, June Kellogg, Pat Marcinkiewicz, Larry McCord, Nancy Parker, Lou-ellaVaughn, and Adviser F r a nk Neuber. Bulgaria, in alliance with the peace-loving f r e e socialistic states of the Soviet Bloc, bent all efforts to pass resolutions which would halt testing of n u c l e a r andthermonuclear weapons.. THE SOVIET UNION, always concerned with the disastrous effects ofradiation, as usual set the lead in the MUN by re-announcing its unilateral cessation of nuclear weapontesting. Quite simply, Russia has quit testing nuclear devices. The Delegation was proud to attendcaucus meetings of the Soviet Bloc, along with other peace-loving nations who draw support fromRussia's guiding hands. However, an ungrateful delegation from Yugoslavia withdrew from Sovietcaucuses under false pretenses and ill-advisement. They formed a wishy-washy Neutralist Bloc.

ARESOLUTION WAS PRESENTED in the General Assmebly to liberate the peoples of Algeria from-French dominatoin by setting up an arbitrating body through the United Nations. Twenty-six nationsfollowed the Soviet lead in voting for this resolution, with 21 voting against it. The French Delegation,unwilling to recognize the equality of man, arid desirous to continue their policies of persecutiontoward the Algerian people, took their banner in hand and left the General Assembly. The Secretariatdiscovered that the vote was in error and that the resolution had actually failed. The French Delegationagain entered the General Assembly, exemplifying the indecisive attitude of the French Governmenttoward the common people of Algeria. Amid applause of the delegations representing the commonpeoples of the world, Bulgarian Consul Larry McCord presented a 3-minute minority speech to - theGeneral Assembly. It was against the loaning of experts and top personnel to the UN TechnicalAssistance Agency which advises the development of underdeveloped states. SOVTET POLICIESFAVOR a bilateral exchange of technical advice and economic aid to underdeveloped 'areas,whereby the s t a t es needing help apply directly to the â€¢nation from which they wish to receive aid. Opposition to the Soviet policies is typical of the warmongering capitalistic attitude taken by theWest. , .. gt; The Model United Nations is organized along the lines of the actual U.N., using theCharter of the United Nations as its authority.

Since that date, the spring tour has beenan annual event. Its tour this year will include visits to 19 places. "The Importance of Being Earnest" hasbeen called Oscar Wilde's most frivolous comedy, as well as his most important. Some call it comedyfor serious people. Others call it social satire on a fantastic plane. JEAN ERDMAN, ANIMPORTANT FIGURE in the world of creative dance, will present a recital of v a r i e d dance f o r ms . The show will feature music ranging from Mozart to Bartol. The dances will all be choreographed byMiss Erdman. Events connected with her appearance wilt include a master class in the gym for Or-chesis and anyone else interested. This will be from 4 to 5:30.

The two Tacoma schools compiled only 52% points between them,the Lutes gaining 30 and the Loggers 22%. The Viking thinclads bagged 14 firsts in the 45 events. Thesunny afternoon found three Viks emerge as double winners. They were Dick Kol-kana in the 100 and220 yard dashes, Don Trethewey in the mile and the two mile, and John Merritt in the broad jump andthe high jump. The afternoon's top performance was in the 220-yard low hurdles as Western's Tom Davis sped to victory in :24.7, which is but a tenth of a second off the conference record. GARYPHILLIPS CONTINUED his winning 'ways as he raced to another victory in the 440-yard run. In a closerace, Sam Martin edged two other Westernites, Dave Lang-ley and Davis, in the 120-yard high hurdles.Bob Jones displayed winning form in the half mile. The other Viking firsts were taken by Bob Swalwellin the discus, Jim Sa-ger in the javelin, and Jack Thompson in the pole vault. The lone visitors to takefirsts were Francin of PLC, who edged Western's Fred Boede in the shot put, and Gilmer, also of PLC,who managed to tie Merritt at 5 feet 11 inches in the high jump. Western's mile relay team wasvictorious with a time of 3 minutes and 30 seconds. Participating for -the Viks were Kolkana, J a ckHagen, Rod Muir, and Phillips. Vancouver Olympic Club was represented in many of the afternoon'sevents. However, their fine performances did not count PLC is victim in the team standings. PLC'sjavelin star John Fromm did not perform because of a pulled hip muscle. Other praiseworthy Viks werÂ« John Winterholler who was second in the mile and two mile; F r ed Emerson who placed in the 100 and200 yard dashes; Norm Diebel who had three places; Jerry Berringer who took second in the discus; and Ron Ladines, Bill Burby, and Paul Willison, who also placed. Tomorrow the Viks will be up in Canadaparticipating in the Vancouver Relays. Over 400 entries from all over the world are slated to participate. Among the outstanding individuals scheduled to perform are Lazo Tabori, the Hungarian who has runthe mile in 3:59, and speedster Ray Norton of San Jose State who recently ran the 100-yard dash in9.4. "If everybody has a good day, we could place high in the team standings," stated coach Smith.Viking batters have field day Tennis team rolls on THE VIKINGS HAD on their hitting shoes as theytagged PLC pitching for 25 runs on 25 hits in sweeping a double-header played last Tuesday atBattersby Field, 13-8, 12-5. Upon first glance it looked as though the Vikings were in batting practice. At least that's the way the Gladiator pitcher seemed to be throwing the ball. - If anyone was waiting forhim to throw a fast ball they would have to wait a long time. He seemed. content to throw nothing butchange-ups all day, and the Western batters seemed content to merrily whale the ball to all corners of the park, and even out of it. Neither of the contests was ever in any serious doubt. As the Westernbatters made the first inning of both games an indication of their motives. In the first game they scoredone run on one hit, and in the second game they scored two runs on three hits. Consequently the PLCpitchers never had any motivation born of effectiveness. GARD AND ALLEN were the outstandinghitters for Western, both picking up five hits in eight trips to the plate. Many other Viking batterspicked up two and three hits, and they are too numerous to mention here. The only thing left to bedesired was in the line of pitching. There was a definite lack of any good throwing on either side.Western pitchers were lucky that the Vik hitters were so effective, and all I can say for the PLC hurlersis that they were unlucky to say the least. WESTERN'S NEXT OUTING will be against the CPS Loggers today at 1:30 at Battersby. CPS appears to be the only obstacle in front of the Vikings, in ruling thewestern half of the conference, and the Vik pitching will have to be a little better if they hope to getaway with their skins.

Other than that the Vikings had everything all their own way in the lopsidedwin. PLC's basketbal star, Jim Van Beek fell before the improving Jeb Baldi; 2-6, 7-5, -0-8.

May 16, 1958 'Bastien and Bastienne' TAe Medium* Spring opera features Mozart and MenottiZERO HOUR FOR the Speech and Music Departments operatic productions is rapidly approaching. Thetwo numbers, "The Medium" and "Bastien and Bastienne," are scheduled for next Friday and Saturday, May 23 and 24 in the Auditorium. In order that the operas may be most fully appreciated by thestudents who attend, the backgrounds of the two have been emphasized this year. THE SECOND ofthe two operas, "Bastien and Bastienne," is the earliest of the master's works which still remains as heoriginally wrote it, at the age of 12. Actually an. operetta, it was first performed in 1768 at a garden party of one of the pioneers in the field of hypnotism, Dr. Anton Mesmer.

It was preceded by at least intermission, May 9 MR. MARKFLANDERS, Speech Department, donned his working clothes to help Joanne Rozman build scenery forthe operas. 'The Medium/' by Menotti, and Mozart's "Bastien and Bastienne" will be presented nextFriday and Saturday evenings in the Auditorium. two other earlier versions of the same tale. One of these was a free and somewhat crude translation â€¢ of a French comic opera, "Les Amours Des Bastien etBastienne." This was in turn based on a more serious and delicate production "Le Devinj de Village" byJean Jacques Rous seau. This latter piece achieved world fame within a short time after its writing.THERE ARE MANY factors which undoubtedly influenced Mo zart in the composition of the opera: thecomic opera of Paris, the baroque dance-songs of Salzburg and Vienna, the ent' actes of the SalzburgUniversity Thearte, and the comic improvisations of Vien nese humor. These elements of the musicalcomposition of his day were fused with his own personality and transformed into an individual work ofart with a style distinctly that of Mozart. It takes the form of the then-fashionable pastorale and theintimate freshness of the young boy who wrote it. I felt that the other candidates were very worthy ofthis award but personally I'm very happy to receive this honor. I would like to thank the Helmsmen formaking this possible," Emerson commented. He will be back at Western next year to compete inathletics. "We were pleased how well the dance and band were received," Haag said. Haagcomplimented all of the SSI committees for their work. He pointed to the publicity and decorationarrangements as being "particularly outstanding." IT WAS ANNOUNCED that about 260 couplesattended the dance with the proceeds ($442) going into OVER 500 PERSONS voted dur- the AssociatedStudent Body fund. [Textbooks missing Student cars raided STUDENT AUTOMOBILES HAVE alongwith the texts notebooks have been raided in three parking areas sometimes been taken, which he during the past three weeks, Dean pointed out is hard on the student of Men C. W. McDonald revealed whowants to review for a test. Language opportunity Russian offered next year this week. We've had onlyfour or five reports from students who have been vandalized," said McDonald. "But the list may beincomplete," he added. He said students should see him if they have had items stolen or haveinformation concerning thefts. Edens Hall, Highland Hall and High Street parking areas have been hit. y. DEAN MCDONALD SAID that "WESTERN IS MAKING a great step forward by offering Russian nextyear," Trustee Marshall Forrest announced this week. "Russian is an important language, and webelieve we have hired a first-rate instructor who has had background in language and linguistics, WilliamElmen-dorf," Forrest revealed. Â». ELMENDORF G R A D U A T ED FROM Lincoln High School (1938)and from College of Puget Sound in 1944. He majored in chemistry with minors in German andmathematics. After working several years as a chemist he entered the University of Washington(1948) and began his study of Russian. He went back into chemistry again but returned to the University in 1956. In 1957 he completed his work on his M.A. (to be confirmed in June), majoring in Russian.During his latest stay at the University he served as a research assistant on their machinetranslation project. "We did grammatical and linguistic work on a memory (or mechanical dictionary)for a machine which was to translate Russian into English," Elmendorf commented. He will teachRussian, Spanish and possibly some scientific Russian. ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR OF theUniversity Far Eastern Department, Lew Micklesen, gave Elmendorf his recommendation, "Mr. El-mendorf's extensive background in the sciences makes him an excellent candidate for the teaching of scientific Russian." Elections Social The A.S.B. Elections Board is sponsoring an After Water ShowParty from 10:00-12:30 p.m. at Edens Hall this Friday. It will be given for the whole campus. Plans arefor dancing, in the dining room to the live music of Don Gunderson's combo, card games, T.V. viewing inthe social room, and an opportunity to meet the candidates for the coming election. The Dean termed such dishonesty a "sad commentary." Although no leads have been turned up in the case, which has also been referred to city police, the Dean theorized that only a few vandals are at work. He called upon Student Body support to stamp out the thieves, by being alert and locking cars. IT WAS POINTEDout that taking something from a car constitutes breaking and entering. The Dean said "punitive m e a s u r e s" would be taken against the guilty parties. This would be expulsion from school, he clarified. McDonald said that any repentant thief could leave stolen books in a conspicuous place in a Collegeoffice. Lost and found items, he added, may be brought to the Business Office. SINCE NO TREND HASbeen established, the Dean said that if persons have been vandalized and have not reported the fact they should. He hoped additional information would be of help to College officials and local police. ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1958 May 16 - Page 2 ---------- P a 9 e 2 ,'â€¢â€¢" â€¢'* WESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAN May 16, 1958 Budget poses bDii gproDbii ems When the Board of Control cut into the Forensics budget Wednesday night it cut into only one of the sore wounds in the side of student finances. ~" It also cut into one of the big decisions that is going to have to be faced by student government one of these days. That decision is whether severalstudents are to be financed in their extracurricular endeavors to the tune of hundreds of dollars at theexpense of the whole student body, while that student body which is paying the bill never receives directbenefits from the money it invests. Board members Al Jung and Kirby Cleveland pointed out to Forensics Director Paul Herbold that one of the biggest student resentments against Forensics is that while thewhole student body pays more than #2,000 per year into the forensics program it never seesforensicans in action on this campus. These board members suggested that the forensics programschedule activities on the campus that could be viewed bv all students, so they could at least feel thatthey were gettinsr some benefit from the money they are paying into the program. Faculty advisor MoyleCederstrom hit the problem even more directly when he questioned whether the whole student bodyshould pay up to $100 a -person for the activities in which only up to 25 different people take part. Hestated he felt that money from all the students should be channeled into activities that benefit more thanan exclusive group of students. There are many of this type that come up, for consideration everyyearâ€”whether the Board should send individuals on far-flung trips at up to $500 a trip when the tripbenefits only the individuals, and ultimately whether every student should contribute part of his fees tobenefit one student. If the Board is looking for places to cut money in the future, we would suggest thathere is the place to cut. Perhaps it is time individuals at least paid part of the bill for activities that benefitonly themselves directly. Certainly it is time that Forensics scheduled some programs where studentscould feel they are getting direct benefit from their money? This is why dramas are produced on campus, why movies are shown, why Collegians are published, why athletic contests are held on campus. Theseare activities students want and pay for; they do not pay for them and never hear or see them except forthe trophies they win elsewhere or the trips they take. Here are some of the places to cut. It's time toput more money into the things that benefit the most people who are' footing the bill, and to be lessextravagant with those that only dubiously and indirectly benefit the people who are paying for them.â€”Ken Robertson Student teaching beneficial, but. As a sudent about to enter student teaching, I amreluctant to embark upon this phase of my training. Reluctant at least to enter it as it is nqw set up andaccording to the value placed on it by many of those who have already gone through it. As it is now setup, twenty-four precious hours of intellectual training are being sacrificed for the benefit of teachingmethods. To be sure, methods of curriculum should be studied, plus some exposure to classroomprocedures, but too much of this is not good as I see it. Heaven help the rosy-cheeked youth whoplunges into the realm of teaching armed with various and assorted methods of teaching, while at thesame time armed with nothing to teach. Maybe he could teach methods. The education department willpoint out that student teaching will better prepare the future teacher for the hours of his life that he willspend in the classroom. But to many, student teaching is merely an easy way to use up twenty-fourcredit hours. Surely, this sort of thing will not prepare the student to do a job. Al so. it is supposed toallow an individual to discover if he is really cut out to teach. Again I must point out that it cannot hope toduplicate life as a teacher in a rosy little atmosphere of student teaching. The student is submitted tonone of the bad sides of the profession, except through the medium of lecture. An individual can reallyfind out if he is suited to any vocation only by trying as it exists in actual practice. Student teachingcannot really tell you if you are suited for teaching. The fundamentals of classroom procedure arevaluable. The study of curriculum is even more valuable, while far and above either of these is intellectualtraining. Without a thorough grasp of his major and minor, a teacher cannot possibly impart them to his students, no matter what method he may have. Perhaps more emphasis should be placed on thematter to be taught and less on the method with which to teach it. Before I walk blithely into a battle Iwould like some ammunition, not just the gun to shoot it with. â€”Jim Phegley Va,n sez Yesterday atradition died . . . .

And Everyone who walked past display toward any moving ma- we hate to see it go.fee raise means a much needed college bookstore A major decision faces the students of WesternWashington College. One week from Monday these students will go to the polls and cast their ballot on a proposal to raise student fees by two dollars per quarter. Facing a natural reductance to raise their ownfees, the voting students will have to thoughtfully evaluate the proposed use of this fee. There can be little question that Western is growing. The pains and conflicts that go with growth are ever present around us today. Classrooms are crowded, social facilities are strained, and, among the many other things, we find ourselves with a bookstore that was haphazardly designed for a normal school with an enrollment of lessthan 1,000. The present store manager estimates that only 40 students can get in the store at any onetime. Further, the space limitations prevent adequate clerking to serve more than half this number. Itmay be emphatically stated that the minuteness of the Co-op, Bookstore facilities are costing thestudents moneyâ€”this because the limitations have resulted in discouraging patronage in somedegree. "It took me ten minutes to get a blue-book; I was late to my class/' says one Co-op customer.This is a typical comment. The ASB's Co-op Bookstore committee and the Co-op Manager are, ofcourse, working together to make the best possible use of present facilities but the most obvious factremains that THERE JUST ISN'T SPACE TO SERVE ALL THE NEEDS OF THE. STUDENTCUSTOMERS. This is at no time more apparent than during book sales at the beginning of each quarter. Early this quarter the ASB's Co-op Bookstore committee asked the BOC for authority to initiate planningfor a new bookstore. The BOC granted this request and the committee, working with experiencedmembers of the SUB committee, began preliminary planning. That planning is still in progress. Thestudents will have ample opportunity to examine plans as they emerge and w i l l , in matter of fact,actually determine configuration of the store by supplying information and opinions to members of theplanning group. But now the time has come to consider finances. The need seems very obvious. HOWARE WE TO PAY FOR THIS? The first reaction may be, "Let George (in this case the Administration)do it." Unfortunately the Washington State Legislature has not appropriated money for bookstores. Withstudent unions this category of building is on the "out of bounds" list for legislative action. The Collegetrustees will not request funds for a bookstore knowing that such funds, as a matter of policy will not begranted. It then follows that the ASB must construct such, a store. There is no other source of funds.This may be only just since the Co-op store is a student store owned by the ASB. The present plan calls for a $2.00 fee per quarter. If this is instituted next fall (as a result of a favorable ballot this quarter) thenew bookstore IS ONLY TWO TO THREE YEARS FROM COMPLETION. If the measure does not passwe then will be without a new store for at least five, and most probably, six years. During the next sixyears the enrollment at Western will surge to at least 3,400. THAT'S 1,000 MORE STUDENTS THANWILL BE ENROLLED NEXT FALL. If students think that service in the present small store is hectic nowthey might mentally calculate what such service will be like with this almost 50% enrollment increase.That's not the end of it either. Enrollment ten years hence is predicted at not less than 4,800 students.These are Washington State Census Board predictions. College predictions, based on past enrollmentexperiences, place the enrollment at 5,000 in eight years. THIS IS AN EDITORIAL DESIGNED TOPROVOKE THOUGHT. For if student voters examine this question they will transcend the minor irritationover a small fee raise in order to achieve the pressing need of new and more adequate store facilities. Asto the extent of those facilities (what do we get for our money?) look to the type of store at the Universityof Washington. THE SELF-SERVICE CONCEPT WITH ITS EFFICIENCY WILL DOMINATE PLANNING AND EMERGE IN A STORE THAT WILL EFFECTIVELY SERVE ASB MEMBERS, FACULTY, ANDALUMNI. As an example, space for a complete line of paper-bounds will, in itself, stimulate theintellectual growth of Western. And in our intellectual growth is measured the success of our collegeand our graduates. Finally, if this editorial writer may be permitted a very personal comment here, Isincerely feel that I have worked on no other project in recent years that has more worth. I urge thepassage of the New Bookstore measure. R. L.

BY LYLE PRICE The Board of Control met twice thisweek in a successful attempt to squeeze down to size the 1958-59 Associated Student Body budget.ASB PRESIDENT JIM HAMILTON opened the Tuesday session 11 minutes late when a nine-manquorum was formed at 7:11 p.nr. Explained Hamilton, "It was assumed more people would beavailable at this hour. At the moment (7:10 p.m.) this seems to be invalid." BUT ONE MINUTE LATER,the President clasped his hands and told the quorum, "ignore the socks, tee-shirts, and tennis balls and cut the totals." First attacked was the baseball section of the Athletic budget. After six separateitems for a total of $830 had been cut, Board Member Kirby Cleveland interloped, "We've cut to wherewe were last year. Is that our plan?" APPARENTLY SUCH WAS THE plan, for just about the time (7:25 p.m.) that Finance Committee Chairman Ken Haag took his chair, another $335 was guillotined from the baseball budget. Haag was the eleventh, and final, Board member to arrive. Next on the Tuesdayagenda was football. AL JUNG, ASB PRESIDENTELECT, promptly proposed a $700 slice inequipment. A $790 increase for this item had been requested. Jung contended that the AthleticDepartment is wasteful, and said athletic clothing is "worn all over." The President-elect related thatschools represented at last weekend's Pacific Students President Association conference listedyearly-increasing athletic budgets as a main headache. HOWEVER, BYSTANDER CONRAD LEERtold the Board that after early football turnouts last fall, "I could hardly walk for three weeks because ofwearing . faulty equipment." ALL TOLD, $2,867, including $300 from the women's department, wassubtracted from the requested Athletic budget. The budget tentatively was accepted at $34,638 for themen's part, and for the women at $2,400. Wednesday, the budget was . again near the top of theagenda-at the regular 4 p.m. meeting. FACULTY BOARD MEMBER Dr. Moyle Cederstrom termed theFor-ensics budget "an insult to the Board," He based his opinion on the point that Forensics wassubmitting a request identical to last year's. Replied Paul Herbold, Forensics advisor, the requests are not in any way an insult . . . but constant." "Too constant," retorted Dr. Cederstrom. AL JUNGREPORTED students have ill-feeling toward the group because they don't participate on campus. Hecalled for a debate, possibly as an assembly, at Western. Herbold answered that the Forensicsprogram is not designed for assemblies, and termed the debates as of a serious, non-humorousnature. AFTER A $574 CUT, the Forensics budget was tentatively accepted. However, $531.15 wasalloted for the national tournament next year. IN OTHER BOARD BUSINESS Wednesday, it was movedto place on the next election ballot the question of a $2 increase in student fees in order to helpfinance a new Bookstore. The new constitution also will be on the next ballot. Ken Haag and AmeliaBellotti were chosen as Homecoming Co-Chairmen, and Mrs. Ray Ondracek was picked as summerCOLLEGIAN editor. Bob Dunlap was chosen summer business manager.

THE REQUEST, ASAMENDED, is for $2,597,085. It covers the 1959-61 period. â€” Exception to the first-proposedrequest concerns a new ventilation system for Old Main. It was voted down after a com- , ment washeard that no student had been asphyxiated yet in the 60-year-old building. Trustee Marshall Forrestadded that the $99,245 proposed for ventilation would be better spent on teachers', salaries. FORREST, A BELLINGHAM LAWYER, also suggested the College Health Committee consult with local hospitalofficials to determine if students can obtain civic medical service. A request for a $237,160 Health Center Building at Western was thus left undecided until the report is heard.

WITH THESE WORDS the Research Bureau springs into action to help solve the problems ofWestern students who need assistance for emotional, vocational, or academic conflicts which plaguetheir daily lives. Western students aren't the only people who receive help from~ the Research Bureau.Many times this department assists the Bellingham Juvenile Court, and many other cases which arebrought to the Bu- - reau's attention. The college also benefits from the vast wealth of informationobtained by this department. ACCORDING TO DR. WILLIAM BUDD, of the bureau, "Any problemswhich can't be helped by the student's academic advisers are often handled -by us. Many times thestudents come to us freely, and ask for help; other times they are referred to our department. All ofthese cases need special counseling, and if we can't help them we refer them to" someone who can."Dr. Maurice FreehiU, Director of Research, stated that the three counselors in the Bureau all haveDoctorate degrees, and all meet the requirements needed in the state of Washington. The thirdmember of this counseling group is Dr. Robert Zas-low. These men conduct their services according to how severe the case may be. THE BUREAU ALSO EXTENDS its service to the College. Its purposein helping the college can be divided into three sections. *1. It is the center for most of the institutionalresearch. The bureau studies inside problems of this institution, and tries to provide a solution. *2. Itis the chief administrator of the testing program. This phase of the Bureau's work includes the testing ofentering freshmen. It also scores many of the objective tests given by Western's instructors. *3. Itaids the graduate in his work. IRA hosts Malayan geographer "GEOGRAPHY AND POLITICS inSoutheast Asia" will be the topic of Dr. E. H.

Then in a doubleheaderplayed with Seattle Pacific, the Viks split; winning the first, 2-0, and losing the second, 2-1. The loss inthe nightcap against SPC saw the end of an 11 game winning streak for the Viks. In the double win overPLC, Western continued their powerful hitting by launching a 22 hit attack on the hapless Lutepitching. Marlin Jensen, who pitched a fine seven hitter in SPC RUNNER, Herb Syverson, is thrown out at a close play at the plate in a game played against Western at Battersby field. The Western catcher isDoug Lynch. (Photo by Chuck Stufz) the first game, and played right field in the second, was thehitting star of the day with five hits in seven trips. THE SWEEP OF THE TWO GAMES set the stagefor the Vikings to meet Central Washington for the Evergreen Conference title, May 23 and 24, atEllensburg. Against SPC, the Viking bats cooled off, but the pitching picked up. Larry Meyer pitched afine one-hitter in the opener, as the Viks won, 2-0. In the second game the pitching again stole the show from the batting, as the game went into an extra inning before the Falcons pushed across two runs inthe eighth to one for the Viks in winning, 2-1. .Coach Hubbard seemed a little happy about losingthe second game to SPC. It will let off a little pressure for the title game with Central. This will be thesecond straight year these same two teams have met for the title. Western won it last year. THE VIKSHAVE TWO more league games with CPS, but they will have no bearing on the league race, and theyhave two more to play with the fine SPC club, down in Seattle. HOW MANY OF YOU would like to havea crew at Western? I know that we have assorted crews here already, but I am referring to a racingcrew. There is no reason why we shouldn't have one. No one expects the Viks to sweep the I.R.A., but we have plenty of competition. There is UBC, and many of the bigger schools have frosh crews. Crew racing is relatively inexpensive, and very exciting. Rumor has it that the University of Washington may be willing to donate a shell. Who knows what great oarsmen we have on campus? â€¢f 1 i Well, the Vikingsmade me look good. I stuck my neck out, and said that they had a good baseball team on paper, andthey proved that they have a good team anywhere. Next stopâ€”the conference championships withCentral at Ellensburg. i i 1 The tennis team isn't exactly making me look bad, either!

The Viks compiled 109% points to 34% for PLC and 17 for CPS.Western's Dick Kolkana was the Viks only double winner among their 11 firsts in the 15 event contest.Kolkana was victorious in the 100 and the 220 yard dashes. Western swept the 220 as Gary Phillips,Ron La-dines and Norm Diebel finished two-three-four behind Kolkana. JOHN FROM, PLC's javelin ace,was sufficiently recovered from his pulled side muscle to participate for the first time in a month. Heflipped the spear 225 feet 11 inches. The Lutes' other firsts were taken by Searcy in the shot put andby the mile relay team of Jacobson, Sheldahl, Dahl, and Witmer. Gary Clark was CPS's sole winner, ashe high jumped 6 feet 2 inches. Don Trethewey and John Winterholler took turns winning the distance runs, Trethewey taking the mile and Winter-holler the two mile. "440" Phillips was once againvictorious in his specialty, as he split the tape in 0:50.5. Bob Jones finished first in the 880 yard run,with a time of 2:01.6. In the 120 yard high hurdles, Sam Martin, Dave Lang-ley and Tom Davis finishedone-two-three. In the 220 low hurdles, Davis and Martin took the first two places.
