Sept. 24, 1956 didders Downed Saturday Western Scores On80-Yard Push BY JOHN BETROZOFF It was a case of too much beef and experience to buck lastSaturday night when the Western Vikings opened their 1956 campaign against the talent-ladenLewis and. Clark Pioneers at Battersby Field. The Portland club went home with a 31-7 victory. Briefoffensive spurts showed future possibilities for the green Se-home eleven and their multiple offense.The split T and double wing clicked well at times with Bruce. Randall and Bill Karawacki leading theway. The Pioners battered the Viking forward wall all night, combining the running with a superb aerialattack. Western battled back to stop several LC thrusts but the power-packed backfield finally took its toll. Things went bad from the start for the Viks. Western recovered their opening kickoff on the LC 16-yard line, but the Viks were offside on the kickoff. Western then stopped the Pioners dead after thesecond kick only to have the LC punt fumbled on the Viking 18. Lewis and Clark took it over from thenine after four plays. In the second quarter, Western's (Continued on Page 4) Weldon Lamb, freshman,enters the first time. • gt;. ,«; \^ college life and Highland Hall for Plan Student Leader Camp A fullweekend conference is slated for Western student leaders in the middle of October. Conferencechairman Rosemarie Oldow says Black Mountain Lodge Enrollment Tremendous Responsibility TO THE STUDENTS: It is a genuine pleasure today to extend greetings to the hew and returning students. It hasbeen very inspiring since last Thursday observing so many new students, freshmen and transfers,' busy.completing their registrations and orienting themselves to a new educational environment, and so manyreturning students completing their registrations. Three years ago only 1288 students were on thiscampus^ It is predicted that approximately 2000 will enroll this fall. This, if it takes place, is both atremendous responsibility and a significant opportunity for all of us. If our standards are to be upheld,cooperation between faculty and staff and the student hpdy will be required this year as never before.Our tradition of friendly relationships, mutual understanding, and democracy must be maintained. As weemerge frojn, the small college classification, we are anxious that we retain the spirit and atmosphere ofthe small college, which if wre do, our interest in the individual student will be continued. : I , .; - \ \ \.

EntranceTotal Expected to Surpass 2000 New Men's Dorm Opens Doors to Accommodate Some of RecordTotal Western enrollment was expected to spiral to an all-time high this week as returning studentsbegan arriving today on the heels of freshmen and transfers whoN have just finished their Welcome Week indoctrination. A helping hand in one of the biggest problems created by this overflow—housing—wasoffered as the newly-finished MRH addition opened its doors to 100 men. Highland Hall, brand newaddition to MRH, opened its doors for the first time last week, with accommodations for 109 men.Forty-eight rooms in a two-story U-shape building greeted arrivals as they began pouring inWednesday. Features of the rooms were built-in wardrobes and desks, along with" other conveniences of modern residence halls. The base of the U-shape houses a lounge, storage room, an apartment forthe house mother and a central laundry room. SOUTH OF MRH Located in a grove of trees just south of MRH, the new annex features a combination of wood siding and brick. The building was designed byLeonard Bindon, Seattle architect. At a total cost of approximately $325,000, including architect's fees, sales tax, furnishings and miscellaneous expenses, construction began on the addition in early1956, so it would be completed in time for arrival of fall quarter entrants. Other halls were filled, too, assome of the houses near campus began turning away students as early as last week. Approximately120 mechanical arrivals found, however, that they would not have to be turned out on the streets. Roomfor that many cars is now available (exclusive of the black-top area) with the opening this summer ofthe parking area in front of Edens Hall. Population at Western was expected to topple all records ashundreds of new students finished registering and old students began returning to campus for finalregistration, this week. "Most of us are betting it will hit something over 2,000," Donald Ferris,registrar, told the Collegian. Twenty-three per cent more students had pre-registered last Springquarter than the year before, his office has indicated. And in August over six hundred freshmen hadapplications on file, while two hundred transfers were recorded. Fees, forms and frustrations metfreshmen last week as their welcome week procedure began. Assemblies to instruct, assemblies toacquaint and assemblies to inform were only part of the three-day schedule of events that includedplacement tests, automobile tours of Bellingham, counseling, registration, newcomers* dances,aptitude tests and preference records for the all-time high number of frosh and transfers. The final flood-wave of humans was expected today as returning students arrived to complete registration beforeclasses begin tomorrow. They arrived in time for the last stages of the welcome ceremonies whichincluded an all-student assembly at 10 a. m. today and an open house for all students, sponsored byAWS, which begins at 2:30 and extends through 4 this afternoon. Schedule for Returning $tudent$tHundreds of old students arrive today for the completion of their registration before classes begintomorrow.

You are wondering if you have chosen the right place to "spend the mostimportant four years of yptif Ufe. And we, the experienced ancients, the greybeard juniors and seniors(and even the sophomores) are being looked to as fountains of knowledge pertaining to the folklore andlegend surrounding Old Western. Herewith the ancients speak: The first things you will becomeacquainted with are the numerous hoary old jokes which have gained a measure of respectability through sheer old age, and which are re surrected and retold at every as lt; sembly or bull session. Just a fewof these: in your first few days here you will hear Old Main facetiously referred to as Old Mange; you willhear the campus lawns referred to as Dr. Haggard's personal property, with grossly exaggerated remarks as to the punishment he inflicts upon persons violating the verdant purity of bis grassy plains.

Dr. Albert Van Aver, Dr. Sene Carlile, Dr.William Budd and William Dittricn, told the new students for what purpose professors thought students were at Western. Also on hand from the College were ASB President Ken Moffett, Lynda Sam-, nelsonand RosemarJe Oldow to introduce Western's student body activities and represent its studentgovernment.

A bad pass from center gave Lewis and Clark its second TD, taking over from the Vik 20,making it 13-0 at halftime. Western provided the first action to open the second half, an 80-yardtouchdown jaunt, climaxed by a beautiful 46-yard pass and run play from Randall to Karwacki. Theextra point was added by Karwacki making it 13-7, the closest the Vikings could get the rest of thenight. Lewis and Clark then went to work for two touchdowns in the third quarter. One came on anintercepted pass and the other on a Viking fumble on the local's 35. The Portland outfit wrapped upscoring for the night with a final tally in the final period. Bruce Randall and LC's Gene Flippin were takenout of the ball game in the third after a brief game of fisticuffs. The temper tantrum came following a 29-yard pass play that put the ball on Western's two-yard stripe. Flag Football Starts Monday Through the tremendous success of the intramural flag football program last fall, the PE director, Ray Ciszek, hasannounced plans for an even bigger league this fall. First game is tentatively scheduled for next Monday, Oct. 1. Individuals are urged to get teams lined up immediately. Persons lining up the teams can getentry blanks from Jack Hubbard at his office in the PE Building. The directors have not set a maximum on the number of teams. Nine teams were entered in the league last year, according to Ciszek. Heexpects that number to be topped because of the interest shown last fall in the games. Two fields will be used for the flag schedule which will run over a three week period. FLOWERS Ph. 4999 for everyoccasion Bay Champion WANT TO START EATING AGAIN?

He wasnamed head coach after the resignation of Charles Lappenbusch, who served 23 years at the post. Anex-Minnesota center on three championship teams, one a national championship, Kulbitski has coached high school and college teams. His high school squads never finished lower than second.

The field has narrowed to approximately 60 butKulbitski looks for more grid-ders when school opens this week. "We worked on a lot of fundamentalsearlier," stated Kulbitski, "and we used new defensive and offensive formations. These formationsare entirely new to the boys but I have been very satisfied with the progress they are making." The newmentor has been experimenting at the end position where he is a little short in depth. He is alsojuggling the backfield assignments to get the best combination. Injuries? A major item in last year'sinitial turnouts, Kulbitski has been fortunate so far with no major injuries. Sophomore Dick Brozovich, anew man on the Vik squad, suffered a pulled leg muscle last week but will be in action Saturday.Monte Bianchi and Rod Schott were out a couple days with the flu last week.

By JOHN BETROZOFF Here we are with a new year to work with. I want to welcome all the new students to Western Washington and to welcome back all the returning students.We "oldtimers" hope you new students have enjoyed your first few days at Western. You have a jump onthe returning students in seeing the Vik football team already, (whether you were impressed ordepressed is another matter). 1955-56 ROUNDUP NOT TOO BRIGHT Briefly summing up the sportworld of last year: A last Th football, tied for last in basketball, second in baseball, second in track,second in golf, eliminated in conference tennis meet, and most important—a championship inswimming. Not too impressive but that is the record. In defense, it actually wasn't that bad, consideringall the close games and superb performances the Viks put on at times. The only trouble was that there weren't enough times. It was a messed up year. CONTROVERSARY ALL YEAR AT WESTERN This isthe first year the student body has appropriated funds for-athletic scholarships. Sounds funny in • lightof all the coast league-scandals on athletic funds. Nevertheless, the coaches were slowly being"squeezed" out of the picture. They got no support to speak of. Then all heck broke loose last year—theBOC set up athletic funds. Parties", immediately tried to block the funds. They wanted the students tovote-on the funds, thinking it would never carry. Well, it carried unanimously; In fact, it passedtwice—they had to hold the election twice because someone stuffed the ballot box. "It wasn't thesporting thing to do" if I may borrow a quote. FOOTBALL SQUAD LOOKS OK—SEE MORE FIRSTKinda early to praise or predict on our football squad, but r don't think we have to worry about our newcoach. Kulbitski is a really sincere man who has had a lot of experience in coaching. The squad likeshim, Let's wait a week or two before we praise or predict. We can mention a few things, however. Forthose who didn't eyeball the program at the game Saturday (everyone went I hope), here are a few facts.Letterman Ed Melbourne, tackle, tips the heaviest scale at 235. There are: five lightest men at 160:Dwayne Lane, Jim Gard, Bill Karwacki, Ralph Hilt, and Louie McCord. All new faces on the Vik fold.There are 21 freshmen on the squad. Good luck to head coach John Kulbitski and assistant coach RayCiszek.

Watched Him OK The opposition's halfback was running wild against the home squad so the coach sent in a young safety man to watch him. The halfback continued to run wild so thecoach jerked the youngster and barked, "I thought I told you to watch that halfback." "I did, coach, andboy can he run." . f.

October 16 marks theopening of festivities with a Kick-off * Assembly. Later, the separate classes will select their classbeauties to compete for H.C. princesses and Queen; and the chosen ones will reign at all H.C. affairsafter being installed at the Coronation Assembly on November 2. Organized houses are urged by theco-chairmen to begin thinking about their skits and house displays. These skits, after passing a facultyand student elimination, will be presented to the students, faculty, and alumni, as well as totownspeople, at the College Auditorium following} the pep rally, parade, and bonfire. Our returningalumni will be welcomed at a Coffee Hour and Smorgasbord on Saturday, November 3. They will thrillat the exciting moments . offered on Saturday afternoon as the Western Vikings play host to theEastern Savages in the Homecoming football game. Rain, or shine, the grandstands will be packedwith students, alumni and faculty, all cheering our new team on to victory. Climax of the weekend and awelcome sight to the new weary co-chairmen is a formal dance in honor of the Queen. A well knownband, to be announced later, will provide the music as everyone dances in the beautifully decoratedArmory. It's a pleasure to welcome each and every one of you to WWCE and to wish you well in yourstay at Western. I am certain that within just a short time you will be considering this your second home. In the weeks and months to follow there will be= lt;many activities and social functions for yourenjoyment. Attend as many of these as possible; *—z —- -T_ it will make your stay here much moreenjoyable. You will have opportunity to become members of many different clubs and organizations.In your search for activities that interest you be sure to include' your student government at Western. It is a very fine organization. Although at the present time you (freshmen) can't run for the BOCpositions, you can take an active part by serving on committees and here Vice-President Tells ofStudent Activity Opportunities for Frosh Howdy, fellow college students and welcome to Western. Asyou probably already know ^Vestern prides itself with being the friendliest school on the Coast. Isincerely* hope you have found it that way, thus far. As the year rolls by you will come to realize yourself how fortunate you were in choosing Western, but I thought this would be a good time to point out someof the things which will shape that realiza- : : tion. TOP PROFS Probably the main reason you came to college was a quest for knowledge. The professors at Western are at the top of the list. Many of themhave received national,acclaim as being tops in their fields. College life is more than just keeping upwith your studies. You are here to develop more than just a sound vocabulary. A n intelligent, well -rounded, social being is what college strives to put out. For this purpose we have at Western a wealth of extra-curricular activities. MANY OPPORTUNITIES For those interested in publi- LITTLE MAN ONCAMPUS By Bibler Yes, He Is Indeed... is where much of the actual work is done. If you are interestedin committee work come to the student center and Joel Carlson or myself will .be glad to talk withyou. Avail yourself of the many opportunities here and I'm certain your .stay will be a pleasant one.KEN MOFFETT , President," ASWWCE "And—if you join our 'club' you have the opportunity to enjoy areal unique spirit of friendliness with the sorority next door" cations we have a weekly paper, an annualand many smaller publications w h e r e freshmen are welcome to join the staffs. For those interested inspeaking, freshmen are welcome to join our forensics teams which have won tournamentsthroughout the state and Northwest. As far as athletics goes Western has always been in thereplugging. With a new football coach and basketball coach new last year, it looks like an interestingseason for athletics. In baseball Western always shines. Those who would like to play, contact thecoaches; those who don't can help Western go in sports by backing up the- team to the hilt. For thosewho don't like varsity and cheering, there is a vast intramural program. A raft of clubs, varying fromscientific to athletic, awaits the freshman. The fees you paid at registration are used for and by you. TheBoard of Control, y o u r student representatives, spends this money as the governing body ofstudents. You have a financial interest in student government at Western and are asked to take anactive interest in it. Even freshmen may file and run for the Board of Control. NO HISTORY CLASSStudent government at Western is more than a class for history students. It is the governing body of the students—who, last year, set plans for the financing of a Student Union Building; it is agoverning body which provides for, and supports, varsity athletics, forensics and student publications.Western is a combination of many things. I hope you catch the spirit of this college fast and that youcan develop yourself into the type of citizen, professional person, and parent, you want to be. It's up to you. JOEL CARLSON Vice-president, ASWWCE HE has tramped through sixteen dozen registrationlines, had the traditions, codes and customs of Western blared at him from publications, podiums andperspiring people, who with effusive outpourings of welcome and waves of smiles, have either soaked orsunk him with the idea that he is indeed . . . HE has stood in line until his feet ache^has signed cardsand papers until his fingers falter and has read so much -printed matter that his eyes are ready to close.And now HIS trembling fingers and bloodshot eyes come to rest on this last piece of propagandacalculated to convince him that he is indeed . . . Yes, HE is the weary freshman, who will find thatcollege is no frolic and no funeral. Who will find that he won't be pushed, pampered or pressed intolearning. Who will have more freedom of choice than high school has ever offered and will find itnecessary to depend upon himself and his own resources more than ever before. HE will soon knowWestern-for what it is. That is the green grass, the weathered traditions, the human professors, theinhuman assignments, the unlimited opportunities in student affairs and government, the good times, thebad times, the clubs and organizations that will anticipate him and seek him out to the ends of the*campus. And after he knows that Western is for him he will be even more impressed that he is indeed . .. But HE is tired now. The tests have found things in him that he never knew he had, and taken more from him than he had to. offer. He has met so many people that tomorrow he will walk up to many of themand, embarrassingly, ask them for their names again. He will wander the halls in a daze for a few weeks,but when he recovers he will be able to stand before a Senate investigating committee and rattle off hisname, address, place of birth, parents' names, occupation, and age, like a teletype machine. Buttomorrow he begins to become a part of this^ new thing called college—and the tomorrow after that hewill be an indespensable part of it. Several tomorrows from now HE will find HIMSELF writing inpublications, standing on podium and smiling profusely in a concentrated effort to let an- • \Y/CI("*{"}AA E other new freshman know I l V C L . v * w / r lC that he is indeed c I Tests Mag Be Beneficial,But Moaning, Groaning Still Heard BY CAROL JENSEN Woe betide the poor frosh. He's been oncampus only a few days and already he feels tested to death. The only words of consolation upperclassmen can offer is "You ain't seen nothing yet. Wait until finals week." The tests freshmen-havetaken or will take, are strictly for their benefit. The results will help the student and his counselor planhis college career in line with his abilities and interests. CHANGE ATTITUDE There is a major change in college attitude regarding two test results. These are the English and math tests. The College feels that the student should enter school with a certain basic knowledge of these two fields. Those whodon't meet these standards will have three quarters to clear their deficiency. For the first time aregistration fee of $5 will be charged for English 3 and Math. 3, both non-credit courses. This move-isto help remove some of the b u r d e n of expenses of the College for material the student should havegotten in high school. TESTS OMITTED In the interest of streamlining the tests, the Nelson-DennyReading test has been omitted. It was a repeat of much of the material in other tests. The KuderPreference Record demonstrates the major areas of the testee's interests and is helpful in professionalcounseling. Take heart, Frosh. These tests are probably the last you will take in your college careerthat won't require burning the midnight oil.

WITHDAVE AMOS We'll begin this weekly scanning of Western's green campus scene with: Highland Hall,where rooms are smaller than MRH, but the m/ gt;st is made of available space. Interesting point is thatthe building is broken into groups of twelve students . . . each group more or less separated from theother.

HEARD—an upper classman, eyeing the gentlersex of the freshman class—"It looks like a great year." The band, under the cool eye of Mr. Glasssounds in great shape. Observing them during practice the other day, they had real snap and quality.NOTE OP INTEREST: the gym has a new floor—that's why the dance last Saturday night was a sock-hop. Quite impressed with'the size of the football players this year; those guys are big enough to makean impression on a brick wall. Dr. Walter has the College dance band working hard for the mixer nextFriday night. They made their initial appearance at Saturday morning's assembly, playing three numbers . . . sound like a moving group. Buzz Lawrence of "Viking Turntable" (KPUG—Sat. 9:30-11:30 p. m.) tells us he now has a two hour show. Says he will play anything anybody wants—"Bach, Beethoven . . . even (with arched eyebrow) Elvis."

Led by highsteppers Virgil Cleve-jand and Gary Lind, the bandstepped into an eight-minute parage routine, during the halftime at the Western-Whitworth game, thatcast the stars of the TV program, Dragnet, in an effort to track down the killer of Cock Robin.

Practices began Monday evening, and continued through the week under the direction of Jerome Glass, with theband unveiling its new look at the Thursday evening new student assembly in the Auditorium Butdirectors Dr. Don Walter anc Mr. Glass claim there's much more to be unveiled of the band's entire newlook, claiming they believe new plan for the band will solve many of their present problems. This planincludes a clinic band a pep band and a concert banc which will take care of people witl much time,some time and little time. The bands are planned sc that people with different preferences and different amounts of time to contribute can all take part ir the expanded program. o Home c o m i n g Co-chairmen, Sharon Andreasen and Don Six, hope that everyone joins in the nostalgic sentimentalism, the friendly joking, and the just p l a i n "hamming" that our Homecoming seems to b r i ng forth every year.

It enhances him in his humanity and his God-given understanding of menand events. Western Men Begin Beards For New Look For the next month, many of Western's malepopulation will look like true men of the woods or hill billies, depending upon personal opinions. Some120 enthusiasts have put their John Henrys in the books as being official contestants in this year's beard raising contest. JUDGE ENTHUSED Charlotte Rolie, chairman of the judges for the contest, seems asenthused as any of the eager contestants. "This year's contest is really going to be something," she gleefully remarked. "Why, you should hear what some of the men are planning to do." Miss Roliewas very pleased with the turnouts, as there are more entrants for this year's Campus day beardraising contest than there were last year. The other judges seemed to be enjoying themselves lastTuesday and Wednesday when they were registering the men.

Most people take the attitude of "lock 'em up and throw the key away," when discussingmental patients. However, mental illness is a disease, not a crime, and must be treated like any otheraffliction, such as pnuemonia or tuberculosis. , CLASS VISITS HOSPITAL On a recent trip to Northern State Hospital at Sedro-Woolley, members of Dr. Manzer J. Griswold's course in SocialDisorganization, viewed these social misfits, people who still are, because of lack of proper facilities;victims of society. The state is now spending an average of $2.21 per patient per day on the mentallyderanged. This amount is supposed to cover not only food, but treatment. Treatment, which is needed bymaladjusted individuals includes a vast re-education program to the patterns of living in the "outside" world in addition to hospital care. When there is a lack of funds, recently admitted patients are given moreextensive care than the "long-termers," who may only receive a check-up twice a year. - The physicalplant, containing 2,500 patients, is overcrowded. The inmates are not housed according to the type ofmental disease they have but according to degree of violence. Thus a person who is a schizo-phrenic, or"living in another world," inhabits the same ward as a feeble-minded individual does. STUDENTSSHOCKED When students toured the building, they were shocked by conditions. For instance, therewere six beds in a ward built for four. There were 13 beds in another room with little space between them. All the women patients were attired in cheap print dresses. One ward smelled terribly. No wonder onestudent said "I wasn't very impressed." Sedro-Woolley has its good points, too. The patients seemovies, have church services, and are .entertained weekly by staff members. They have an orchestra, and television will be installed as soon as reception is improved. PUBLIC SHOULD ACT It is time, however,for us, the public, to recognize the adverse conditions at Northern State and the other two state hospitals. After recognizing the conditions, we must urge our legislators to appropriate more money forrehabilitation of mental patients. Saving Stamps Saves Lives A Korean child, homeless and starving, hasbecome a familiar picture in all our minds. Newsreels, magazines, and newspapers are full of scenes ofthe devastation and poverty that has befallen the people of that war-torn country. Upon seeing thesepictures we momentarily pity those concerned and want to do something for them. Too often ourinterest wanes rapidly when the stimulus is removed. We then wonder, what can we young people inWashington, do to help? The answer is easy. In the front hall of the main door there is a box. Abovethe box there is a sign urging us, the students and faculty members of Western, to help Korean childrenget nourishment. For every 40 cancelled stamps put in by us, one glass of milk may be provided for oneof these youths. * This is not too much to ask. Almost every student receives some mail during thequarter. It takes but little time and effort to tear a stamp from an envelope and deposit it in the box. Thegirls in one of the organized houses have shown their interest in those less fortunate than themselves byplacing a jar near the door for stamps from the letters they receive. When fiNed, the contents of the jarare brought to school and placed in the box. This is only one way of supporting the drive. Each of us asan individual may back it on our own. Let's do it!

Professor Polya is lecturinj throughout the State during a tour sponsored by the Nationa Science Foundation. * He will speak here Tuesdayafternoon at three o'clock. The subject of the talk is "Archimedes and the Discovery of the IntegralCalculus;." An evening meeting possibly will be held. Due to the. fact that Professor Polyaarrives here in the morning he will have time to meet faculty memtoers and interested students in theMath Office during the time before his lecture. Professor Polya is the author of many books, the mostrecent of which is a two volume set. Volume one is entitled "Induction and Analogy in Mathematics"and volume two "Patterns of Plausible Inference." He does a fine job of illustrating how plausiblereasoning is used in mathematics The basic methods of plausible reasoning are induction, analogy,tideflats Sing for Western "Ok fellas, let's try that again; only this time employ a modulation to thedominant key using a Five- S i x - F i v e chord." Immediately there's a tuning-up and a male quartetbreaks into song to try what in plain English is a key change. Anyone who has ever wandered the hallsof the. A-M building during the noon hours of the past two quarters might have heard something likethat. And what they would have heard were "The Tide-flats," singing it sweet. "The Tideflats" consist ofWally Vopnford, Bass, who in the opinion of Matt Gudmundson junior, "could sing lower, but he ran outof notes on the piano;" Bob Harnden, baritone, believed by some to sound just like a Crosby. John(always-on-pitch) Cchermerhorn the lead; and the top tenor, Gene Langill, complete the group. Thisfoursome, working under the eagle-eye of Mr. Richard Paige, choir director, has blossomed into aquartet Western can be proud of. Starting from scratch at the beginning of the Winter quarter, and as adirect result of Mr. Paige's formation of the Men's Glee club, "The Tideflats" have entertained manyorganizations to date and are booked for numerous others in the near future. Clowning is part of every"Tide-flat" concert and these boys enjoy it as much as their audiences. One of their funniest numbers is"Four Of The Three Muskateers" which they use as an opening number and, according to their tenorGene Langill, really loosens up the crowd. Other numbers in their repertoire include "I Talk to theTrees," a pep number;."Have a Little Talk With Jesus," a Negro spiritual. Both were arranged by Mr.Paige. Also in their collection are "Ain't That A Shame," "The Old Songs Medley," "She's More to bePitied Than Censured," and "Goodnight Ladies," all arranged in true Barbershop fashion. "SophomorePhilosophy," from Mr. Paige's former quartet days, rounds out their repertoire. Highlighting thisquarter's work was their audition for the Blossom Time festival talent program.

It is nearly impossible to describethe mixed emotions and thoughts that were displayed at "Sam" night which was held to honor Mr. SamCarver, retiring director of intramurals. The event was held Monday evening. As everyone knows "Sam" is serving his last official quarter at WWC. This is his 43rd year on the faculty. During this long period Mr. Carver has worked in nearly every capacity on the coaching staff. Getting back to the Monday night affair, the alums came from every corner of the state to attend the all-male banquet in honor of theirformer coach. The ravages of time could be seen everywhere. Former fleet-footed guards and backs, now not so fleety displayed signs of prosperity where a.few years back, rock-hard muscles lay ready foraction. NO THRILL FOR SAM No doubt it was a thrill of a life time for "Sam" to see many of the "kids"he helped guild along the path to success. In his many years of service to the Blue and White, Mr.Carver worked with many coaches, and everyone that knows the veteran of the athletic department, hasthe highest respect and admiration for him. Here are a few words by head basketball coach, BillMacDonald. "Sam .Carver is one of the most sincere, considerate and hard-working men that I haveknown. It will be impossible to replace him. He is not really leaving Western. He will always be with us.The associations he has developed through forty-three years on the staff will continue as stronglyduring his retirement as they have in the past. Western's loss is retirement's gain." The director ofathletics, Charles Lappenbusch, has worked hand in hand with Mr. Carver for many years. This is whathe has to say about the popular retiring director of intramurals. "During all of the years of his coachingMr. Carver has done a splendid job and has had the respect and admiration of hundreds of fine youngmen. His understanding of problems of young people has given him the foundation for excellentjudgement dealing with decisions in his teaching and coaching areas. 119 W. Magnolia WANT TOSTART EATING AGAIN?

"Our boys are the underdogs," said tenniscoach Charles Lappenbusch," but our attitude is all in favor of a win if we can get the performance." He went on to say that CPS is bringing Bill Medin, who has been the winner of the conference meet for thelast two years. Medin also represented the conference in the national meet in Abeline, Texas for twoyears. Western's two returning letter-men are Terry Whalen and Ken Moffett. "As a team," Lappenbusch said, "They're improving." Last Tuesday's match between the Loggers and Western was rained out.

After 42 Years at Western, Coach Sam Carver Retires A great job well done, is the leastthat a person can say ,^0 the tremendous work Sam Carver, chaimran of the Men's Physical Educationdepartment, has done to help bring Western's athletic's up to the fine standards for which it stands today.Mr. Carver is going to retire at the end of the summer quarter after 42 years of service at Western both as a* coach and as a teacher. In 1912, at the age of 22, Carver came to Western (at that time known asBellingham Normal) as a baseball coach. During those days there were no inter-collegiate athletics.Instead, Carver recalls Hhat the only competition was against the local YMCA, high schools, townteams and athletic clubs. ONLY COACH For nearly the first ten years Carver was the only coach at thecollege. Since that time he has coached the five major sports—-golf, baseball, basketball, track, andfootball. When asked which sport he liked coaching best, Carver replied, "I really enjoyed coachingtrack."

In recalling some of his most outstanding performers Carver went back to the track seasons of 1930- 31 and 1931-32 when he was coaching two of his most outstanding athletes,Norman Bright and Danny Qagnon. Bright ran the mUe in 4:13 and later went on to national fame.Gagnon was a sprinter who ran the 100 yard dash in 9.7 and the 220 in 21.4. Carver also named DickBruland, a 6'3"-190 pound lad as the best football player he ever coached. DIG MACK STARS One ofCarvers most memorable experiences occurred during a football game in which Western was trailingthe College of Puget Sound by one point with about one minute to play. The field was muddy, and thewater logged football was about three times overweight, but with the ball on the 30 yard line "Big Mac"kicked a field goat which won the game for Western. Carver's favorite hobbies are gardening and golf.When his retirement begins, he plans on getting in a lot of golf when the weather's right, although, inhis^ own words, "I suppose, some of those winter days will get pretty long."

Auditors Enjoy Cassenti Group Western students and townspeople were delighted last Tuesday morning by the musical talent of the Cassenti Players, an ensemble fromVancouver, B. C. Opening the program with one of Handel's works, the musicians played rondos,minuets, and polkas, among other selections, and had some of the audience chuckling on the lastnumber. The Cassenti Players, according to George Zukerman, bassoon player and spokesman forthe group, organized their ensemble because they felt there was a great need for that type of music incolleges and schools. Zukerman said they are hoping to interest students in becoming musicians andbetter audiences.

They've decided upon aplot and have four of their talented writers working on the script. The would-be authors are Em Beaudreau, Patty Griffith, and Jan Atteberry, freshmen, and Jean Dunham, sophomore. The girls have placed a jaron* ——— their mail table so they can take the stamps right off letters and donate them to thestamp drive which is being held on campus. They have one jar full already and suggest some of theother houses try the same. (It's for a worthy cause— helping needy children overseas. Every fortystamps buys a glass of milk. How about it?)

Seems it was borrowedpermanently. Since the boys are the only one who have noticed that it is gone, the girls wonder if theyare the ones who borrowed the sign.

The productions, which' will be given May 20 and 21, are-v'the biggest we have stagedsince I've been at Western," commented Mr. Mark Flanders, Speech department. . According to Mr.Flanders most of the 65 costumes needed for "Dido and Aeneas" are being made by his costumedesign classes. Flannels, terry cloths, frnd other drapeable materials are being used for the simple, yetelegant Grecian robes. A new twist is being tried for the soldiers of Aeneas' train. "Do-it- yourself"aluminum will be used for their armor. Though the sets for "Trial by Jury" are designed to. .look like thetypical; formal, Victorian courtroom, the stylized, cartoon-type painting gives an air of light-heart-edness to the whole show; Because Victorian costumes require a great deal of time to make and areonly rarely used, the women's attire for the Gilbert and Sullivan light comedy will be rented from aSeattle costumer. Jurymen and male spectators will wear four-button suits and high-collared shirtsconverted from their own wardrobes.

Teaching Opportunities Bright In Far Pacific, Alum Reports While getting a golden tan, one .of neurotics, and just plain in-may earn a salary of $5,256 to j competents. No attempt had ever been made to work with the people in developing their own Ideas on education." TWO STEPS NEEDED Heexplains that two steps must be taken to start the ball rolling in the right direction. First, a nativeteaching staff must be established regardless of the "sacrifice of standards," and the Americanclassroom, teachers, as such, must be eliminated. The next step is to get real American teacherswho can work as in-service supervisors and teacher trainers. At the present time there is a nucleus ofthree people beginning the teacher training, and it is expected to grow within a year or more. Mr.King defends the inhabitants of the islands by saying that the natives of the islands are not primitive in the sense of the bush men of central Africa or the Australian aborigine. They really have a highlydeveloped culture and are very stable. They are content to remain as they are with minor adjustments tomaterial aspects of modern civilization. There is a continual conflict be-between "felt" and "real" needs."Felt" needs are rice and canned salmon and fancy shoes. "Real" needs are better sanitation andhousing and the ability to understand and adapt to the various facets of our civilization. It is Mr. King'sjob as an employee of the Department of the In-t e r i o r to continue what the Navy and United Nationsbegan. They must make sense out of what was done initially too hastily and with little thought for thepeople involved. TRY OUR DRIVE-IN CASH AND CARRY MILK PLAN Save 14c a Gallon PACKAGEICE CREAM At Our Drive-In Hill view Dairy 1824 Cornwall Avenue We Serve Lunches andRefreshments $6,325 per year; so reports A. R. (Dick) King, a 1948 graduate of Western, now employed in education work in the Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands, the United States trusteeship areaunder United Nations jurisdiction. Recently Mr. King wrote a letter to Dr. R. F. Hawk, director ofstudent teaching and the campus school, telling of the urgent need for teacher trainers on theseislands. ALLURING FACTS Here are some more alluring facts about this position. The teacher andhis dependents are given free first class air transportation from the place of recruitment. His householdgoods are shipped free of cost. The salaries are $5,256 for a one year probationary period and apermenant salary of $6,325 per year, including a 25 per cent cost of living allowance. However, the workcontinues for one whole year instead of the usual nine month period. Leave is allotted. Every two yearsan employee is allowed round trip transportation to the place of recruitment. The islands have a goodfood and medical supply. Mr. King says, "Life out here f s both rewarding and comfortable." After WorldWar II the United States Navy and a few Americans occupied the islands. They said, "Let there beschools because schools are the foundation of democracy." TEACHING STAFF PROBLEM Mr. Kingwrites, "Our schools were originally set up with all American teachers and staffed with whatever camealong on the theory that one school teacher is much the same as another." In Mr. King's district alonethere are some 2,500 students, 48 elementary schools, plus one intermediate school. The AmericanCongress would not staff the school system, so the American teachers were assigned to teach in theintermediate school and the better graduates of that school were sent out to operate elementaryschools. Mr. King continues, "Of teachers, we have had all sorts. Few have been satisfactory. Therehave been aicholics, empire-builders, all types The five most important words: "I am proud of you" Thefour mos*t important words: "What is your opinion?" The three most important words: "If you please"The two most important words: "Thank you" The smallest word: urn

Student Union Is Keystone In Progress of Western Western is like an adolescent boy,outgrowing his shoes faster than Mom can buy him new ones. With the continuing need for teachers andthe progeny of the World. War II baby boom about to reach college age, this growth promises to continue and even to accelerate.. .This growth is beyond our control—we can neither stimulate nor retard it. Butgrowth of the physical plant necessary to accommodate this increasing student body is entirely withinour control. If it is to grow, we must build it. The college administration and the State of Washington areconstantly planning for this growth in terms of years and decades. The new men's dorm to be finished this fall, another women's dorm to be started possibly within the next two years, a new science buildingperhaps in four years—these are just the next few steps in the long process of growth. There is oneessential step, however, which the administration and the State of Washington are not planning—aStudent Union Building. This building—one of the most strategic in the program-can only be built by thestudents. A SUB means these things: 1) More available class room space—that now occupied by theStudent Center, Co-op, Lounge-fountain, Collegian and Klipsun offices. 2) A place for a possibleCommons dining hall to serve all students eating on campus. A place that could serve meals all day. 3)Centralization and expansion of ail student services which are managed by the Associated Student Body. Thus, the SUB is a key-stone in the expansion of classroom space; living services and recreationfacilities. This key-stone is needed now—not in 20 to 50 years from now. A majority vote of YES on thefee raise issue next Monday and Tuesday is the only way we can get it.

Bliss DearEditor, There will be on the ballot in the coming election a proposal to raise the student union fee from$1.50 to $4.50. It is feared by some that if this measure is defeated the student union building wouldnot be started until 1989. Such fears were expressed in the Feb. 17 issue of the Collegian. This wouldmean that unless SUB fees are tripled, it will take 33, not two years, to get construction underway. (Itis claimed that if the fees are increased, the SUB will be ready for use in fall of 1958). In other words, bytripling SUB (student union building) fees, we can pay for this project sixteen times as' fast! This is veryreasonable, or isn't it? There ar_e two ways in which we could balance the student budget and stillhave enough money for the student union building. One way is by cutting expenditures (such as thesubsidization of clubs and balls) and the other way is by raising fees. But let us not fool ourselves intothinking that an increase of fees will effect a magically great increase in the speed with which the SUB project is completed. John Kohfeld Ed's Nofei $1.50 is not enough guaranteed income to borrow money (perhaps $500,000). A fee raise is the only possible way to have a Student Union within a few years.Applying simple mathematics to an income of $1.50 times 3 (quarters) times 1,700 students, thendividing this into $500,000, does not leave one with a small figure in terms of years. Add to this thedoubt that any company would lend at the fantastic sum of $1.50 per person per quarter as guaranteedincome (which will require more than simple math), and the sum is rather complex; in fact in terms ofyears the completion date of a building so financed grows rather hazy. However, if the fee raise ispassed, the ASB will have enough income to borrow money (and one must have something to show hecan pay off a loan), let contracts, pay interest and retire the principal of such a loan. Payment wouldstill be long in terms of years, but the building would be in use while this was happening— in shortterms this would be "rather pleasing." To the editor: I wish to express my vigorous objection to thequotation included in the front page article entitled "Two Seniors Drop Prom ASB Race" in. ASBgovernment is bad now can this be a negative statement? 3. I personally think that some of thepresidential candidates are duds—some being dudder than others. I sincerely believe that DaveNorthrup would have been an ex-the February 17 issue of the Col- cellent ASB president I feel that legian. Although the person^quoted WWCE has lost . g r e a t deal because has every right to his opinion, such'of his change of plans. My state-an expression of personal bias can hardly be' considered asnewsworthy. Moreover, the obvious poor taste and the questionable ethics inherent in the quotationwould require that it not be made public. No newsorgan should ever become a vehicle for theperpetuation of private opinion of personal malice. Bob Teshera Dear Mr. Editor: ' _ ( Recently I made astatement in a letter to the election committee which, after being reported in this paper, has,beensubject to vilification and misinterpetrations. My comment on all this is, (Ed. note: mild profanitydeleted). Always we have the keepers of the public morals seeking to keep the public as" a man mightkeep his mistress. Closely confined arid free from any tarnishing contacts other than his own. Butbefore I get involved in "subjective" opinions (the only kind of opinions I have ever seen) let us examinethe statement in question and let me interpet it. I'd like to do this for anybody who is interested becauseI figure that I'm an expert on this comment, that isf I said it first. The statement, " . . . a belief thatstudent government will do naught but mark time under whoever is elected now that Dave Northrup haswithdrawn." 1. "belief" . . . personal opinion and therefore, subjective by its very nature. Show me.another kind. 2. "Will do naught but mark time" . . . this means that the type of student government wehave now, with its good points and bad ones will prevail next year. There will be little or no progress overwhat we have now. Only if we assume that ment was intended as a tribute to him and his abilities. I stillbelieve this—biased, emotional, subjective creature that I am! Oh keepers of the public morals can youever find it in your hearts to forgive me? I do believe that there is,. now one candidate whosequalifications place her far above the other people running for ASB president. She is level headed (not?to be confused with flat headed), sincere (not to confused with a desire to keep public morals), andintelligent (not to confused with the big line with nothing backing it up). In conclusion I say to thekeepers of the P. M., (mild profanity deleted). I do not a p o l o g i ze for my profanity because I thinkthat most students, approaching the statement in question rationally, feel the same degree ofrepugnance over its picayunish appraisal by parochial minds as I do. Ugh! Very sincerely yours, BobDunlap House Presidents' Council Sets Up Competition Plans are being set up to establish a housepresidents' council at Western. Purpose of the council, according to Mel Joy, who originated the idea, isto build up inter-house competition and develop interest in student body functions. The council, althoughnot fully established, is promoting inter-house competition now to get more (Continued on Page 6) 7^^t6e Student (fatten, . This year the Associated Students are fortunate in having exceptionally qualifiedASB committee chairmen. The various chairmen are indirectly responsible for the committee's work and success. All our committee members and chairmen deserve recognition and credit, but since space is limited here, I will mention only two. Rodger Williams is an example of the competent chairman under discussion. His background of ASB activities includes: one year of service on the Board of Control, co-editor of,the Collegian, chairman of last year's Movie Committee, and now chairman of the StudentFacilities Committee. Roger has had much experience in this committee's work and his ability as thechairman is commendable. A n o t h e r excellent committee chairman is Dave Northup. During fallquarter he was a member of the BOC, Senior class president, a member of Inter-Club Council, andchairman of the Student Union Committee. Despite his Other activities, Dave and his committee havedone an outstanding job. The committee has done more towards plans-ning and promoting a StudentUnion Building than previous-committees. As already stated, it takes a good chairman to make acommittee operate efficiently^ and Mr. Northup has accomplished. this' objective. The Student Union Committee practically started from "scratch" arid this year has greatly progressed. Last year the SUBwas thought of as a possibility in about ten years. This year, thanks to our committee, we can considerhaving a Student Union in two years. The committee has worked hard and has a sound Student UnionBuilding plan for your - approval. The committee has done all it can do until a proposal to finance thebuilding is passed by student body. This proposal, to raise ASB fees $3, will be decided at the generalelection Monday and Tuesday. For the good of Western and future students, please seriously considerthis proposal. A vote "yes" will mean a Student Union Building at WWCE. A vote "no", will delay theplanning of a SUB until future years when the Associated Students choose to have a building.

In- Flowers of Quality Phone 288 Charles B. Wilson, Manager Sfcatt Sa ttb By JOHN BETROZOFF Jack Hubbard wasn't too happy over the officiating atEllensburg last weekend. Jack usually isnt one to sit back and let refs get away with anything andCentral was no different. Except that the tooting was so bad, he threatened to pull his squad off the floorif the refs pulled any more "boners" in the second half. Reports have it that even Central fans were booing the referees. Seems to me that when the home town fans boo while they're ahead, it's time to take thehint and do better or "hang it up." SOMETHING NEW THIS TEAR This brings to light just how thereferees are assigned to games. In the past each school made up a list of referees available in theirdistrict and sent these lists out to the other Evergreen schools. .:,,!!,s(,:s,i:Mi;,f The schools would markpreferred refs (first choice, "^sm^mmiiiii second choice* etc.) and send the lists back. Then each hostschool would get the refs that the visiting team selected if it was possible. However the host schooldidn't'go all out to satisfy visiting schools. But this year the conference appointed a commissioner to setup the referees for each game. Perry Mitchell, Central Washington registrar, served in the post. Hearranged referees for every conference game, taking things completely out of the hands of the homeschool. Things didn't work out to well and I guess Western got about the worst deal, although everyschool was: dissatisfied. Those of you who saw Hubbard's reactions at home games know what I mean.Every conference member thought it was a great idea. Our athletic representatives, Lappenbusch andHearsey, voted for it. And to boot, each school was assessed $50 from student funds to create the job.Feel good now!!! SCHEDULING MOST DIFFICULT JOB There is a lot of work that goes on before twoteams take the field or floor for a game. If people only knew the complications that arise in setting upschedules, there probably wouldn't be any squawks. In basketball for instance, the NCAA does not allowOregon schools to play before December 1. UBC can't play between Dec. 1-21 because of exams. SoWestern and UBC can't get together with two Oregon teams for a weekend series during this time. Whenyou combine these can't plays, might play, no opening, opening at wrong time, it leads into a lot ofconfusion. Circular confusion as Lappenbusch would say. SENIORS BOW OUT We overlooked the factthat four seniors played their last game on the home court against Whitworth and; that, they closed outtheir college basketball careers Saturday at Central.

Hamilton: I'm running for BOC because I possessgenuine interest and a real desire to serve the student body. Besides meeting; the statedrequirements, I have additional qualifications: attendance at alb Board meetings fall and winterquarters, familiarity with problems at other Evergreen Conference schools; working ability with thefundamentals of parliamentary procedure. My GPA is 3.5. Harris: I have been a member of the Student Union and the Athletic committees. I have attended most of the BOC meetings. Since I have been incommunication with students of all points of view I think I have a grasp on student opinion. I willcontribute positive action rather than parliamentary exercise. Jacobspn: I am interested in studentaffairs; I would like the experience of working on the BOC. I.was in several high school activities that required leadership. At present I aim head usher and FTA treasurer. VanBronkhorst: I am runningbecause I am interested in student government. I realize that student government here is in need of agreat deal of work to smooth the rough spots and I am willing to contribute to this work. Beyond the factthat I meet the constitutional requirements and have had experience on the Finance Committee, myqualifications are self-dependency, ability, and above all, a desire to contribute to the progress ofstudent government. White: I am running for the Board because I feel that it needs active members.The Board needs equal representation of all campus organizations and activities. At Vashon High School I was the student body president. FEE RAISE VIEWS QUESTION: Are you in favor of the proposedfee raise for the Student Union Building? If not passed, how do you propose we finance a SUB? -Hamilton: Yes. If it is the fee raise, not the building that the students disfavor, I will work toward•B^HHaOBHBBBnVBB a compromise fee raise that is acceptable to the students. The SUB is notpossible without student support. Harris: I am in favor of the fee raise. The SUB is not an issue, but anecessity. We cannot. have the SUB without a fee increase, therefore if it does not pass we will beback where we started. Jacobson: I am. definitely in favor of it. If the issue, does not pass, I think morecampaigning will have to be done until it does pass. VanBronkhorst7: I am in favor of the raise. If thestudent body rejects the proposal I can see-no other plan than to re-present it at a later date, for it isthe easiest and most equitable plan, and the only plan that will give us our SUB in the foreseeablefuture, in time to meet the urgent need. White: I am in favor of the raise. I think it will give the impetus to begin the SUB. If thisv issue does not pass in the election it will indicate that WWCE students are not ready to spend that sum. PERSONAL CONTRIBUTIONS QUESTION: What can you contribute tostudent government? Hamilton: I propose a full time publicity director for athletics. As business manager for the Collegian, I believe that I'm able to offer constructive criticism for the improvement of thepaper.

Richardson:My reasons for running are partly personal, of course, but I think I have the abilities and ideas to servestudent interest . . . I haye served on the BOC; Student Facilities committee; have been ICOrepresentative; chairman of the Conference Policy Committee; vice-president of Pi Kappa Delta and vice-president of USCF. I feel that it is necessary for a person to be very active in student governmentbefore running for president. Sehermerhorn: By looking at the future with an ^eye toward progress, itshould not be difficult to see that if we continue in our trend to say "It can't be done, we don't have this,"we will not do what we want or get what we want. There are people in this school who, if given thechance, will bring us out of our psychological "rut". Therefore, with my several : years of experience,working with groups of all types, (church, grange, Toastmasters) I have come to recognize talent inpeople and have the ability to get cooperation out of them, which' results in tremendous progress.Perhaps this sounds brash and bragging, but the foundations of democracy, and the prime requisite TRY OUl DRIVE-IN CASH AND CARRY MIIKPIAN Save 14c a PACKAGE ICE CREAM At Our Drtve-lnHillview Dairy 1824 Cornwall Avonuo We Serve Lunches and Refreshments We can not be without, isparticipa- ' anciers and the committee will ad-tion by the group. QUESTION: Are. you in favor of raisingfees for the Student Union? Moffett: Yes, I am in favor of the vise on interest rates, bonds/ long termloans, and the feasibility of other methods of raising funds. , Richardson: If the measure is not passed,we must first try to nego-vice which would cost under $5. Per- practical experience using Sturgis tinentroll-call results should be j while serving on the BOC. Refer-fee raise as this is the only feasible tiate theloan mentioned above, a way in which we can get a new j longer term loan, and submit a SUB. If the fees are not raised we have no chance to get the building in the near future. Other colleges have tried otherways and all finally ended up by raising fees. Oldow: I'm very definitely in favor of the fee raise. Beforethis proposal went on the ballot, it was carefully studied by Jthe Student Union Committee and was O.K.'d by the Board. Many hours went into research and from the results I'd smaller fee increase forstudent approval: If this fails, we can. assume that the students don't want a Student UnionBuilding. Sehermerhorn: I suggest that we work on some of the ways other schools have used to raisefunds. I would point out that many schools throughout the country have had this Student Union built byalumni. QUESTION: What do you think published in the Collegian. Sehermerhorn: As chairman of thisyear's bonfire and as general organizer for the pep rally, I was responsible for bringing together theideas and advice of students and faculty with the resulting break from the traditional affair; being replaced with one more streamlined and functional. My philosophy towards student government is a- liberal one. I feel that we must advance our government through evolution, rather than revolution. As a means tothat end, I would like to form an advisory cabinet to the ASB president and the BOC. This group wouldbe drawn Give Personal Qualifications, Reasons for Running; State Positions on Fee Raise say the $3increase is very fair. Richardson: I am in favor of the fee raise. It is my opinion that the building can befinanced.at a lower student fee than the one which is now proposed. However, the important thing nowis to get the proposal passed, and to get to work on the building. Details can be worked on later.Sehermerhorn: I am not in favor of the Sudent Union fee as it is now proposed. Three dollars is too much for many of the students now attending Western. As a veteran, even though unmarried, I am aware ofthe financial situation facing 98% of the veterans and married men on this- campus. They can't afford the raise. Especially in the light of the fact that our fees continue to go up. QUESTION: If the fee increase is not passed, how do yon propose financing a Student Union? Moffett: Why beat around the bush? Ifwe want a SUB we must raise fees. Oldow: I believe this measure will pass. Western needs the building right now. The fee increase will make us eligible for a loan; then perhaps we can count on the alumniand student fund raising activities as other sources. Qualified fin- Hilh Our I ' aM Cam DISCOUNT you SAVE! you can contribute to student government at Western? Moffett: I hope to do the following:1. Work towards the improvement of the A L Series; 2. ;More room and board jobs for athletes ; lt;3. More scholarships; 4. A SUB; 5. Better public relations between the town and- the school. Other than this, all I can say is that if elected I will serve realistically and to the best of my ability. Oldow: Primarily, a well-organized, efficient, steadily progressing government. Richardson ;-I have a conviction thatcollege students as a whole are entitled to a voice in decision makr ing of the ASB. Some studentleaders have expressed the view that it was a mistake to submit the Student Union Building proposalto the entire student body. I disagree. The job of student government is to implement the opinions andwishes of the sudents it represents. I have some concrete ideas which would implement this philosophy. 1. Enlarging the BOC to consist of one representative for every 100 students. This will providerepresentation for Western's growing student body. 2. Provide for expanded use of studentreferendums. I feel that all major decisions of the ASB should be subjected to referendum approval by all students.. 3. All BOC members should be required to establish a uniform office hour for at least oncea week. All BOC members should be required to file each week a statement that they have conferredwith at least 25 students. Failure to comply would disqualify members from participation in themeeting of the week. 4. All voting at the BOC should be done by roll-call vote. This could be donequickly with an electronic de- 206 E.

E.,speech, etc.) and would include professional majors and/or faculty members qualified to present thefeelings and experience of their individual departments in regards to any legislation involving possible controversy between departments. This would be strictly a non-voting group and would exist solely for the purpose of expediting BOC actions and keeping the president closer informed of student bodyneeds and desires. QUESTION: How well acquainted with Sturgis are you? (In explanation, Sturgis is the parliamentarian the Board follows and knowledge of the book is essential for effective Boardof Control meetings, j At the last two BOC meetings time has been spent in debating certainparliamentary procedures.) Moffett: I am well acquainted with Sturgis as I have had parliamentary lawin high school and college, and I am now taking advanced parliamentary law. Oldow: I am wellacquainted with the book. The important. thing in, using parliamentary procedure is to make workprogress smoothly. I admit I've been hard pressed to apply the right rule at the right time. I am equallyconcerned with the last half of her book which relates to committee work, democratic rights and duties of a governing board. I am much in agreement with the little book ahd will continue to use it as a guide.Richardson: Who thought of the question on Sturgis, Bob Dunlap? ((Ed. Note: Dunlap is innocent.) It is a valid one. The president must be a good parliamentarian. I have had class work in parliamentaryprocedure both here and at the University of Washington. I have had ence to the minutes of thatorganization will show that I have been an active member who uses these procedures, not a spectator, as some members of the Board appear to be. Sehermerhorn: Through my several experiences with,group leadership and through an intimate acquaintanceship with parliamentary procedure (i. e.,Sturgis and Robert) I feel that I am well qualified to mediate fully the considerations of the Board ofControl. QUESTION: Why are you running j for vice-president and why do you believe you are qualified?- Brewer: The job of vice-president concerns social activities, and I am interested in this. I would like tosee more functions after games and would work for activities that would draw more student interest. Ihave been BOC secretary and have had experience with parliamentary procedure. Carlson: I amrunning because I feel that I now have a sufficient background of Western and the functions of studentgovernment. Also my experiences in different clubs on campus, especially the presidency of ACEhave shown me that work with people achieves the work at hand. FEE RAISE QUESTION: Are you infavor of the proposed fee raise? Brewer: I want to see a Student Union at Western. If this is the bestwayHo finance it, then I favor the raise. The postponing of this building would mean that it would be along time before the building could be erected. Vice-Presidential Hopefuls State Points of View 24-HOUR SERVICE On WEDDING INVITATIONS PRINTERS . . . STATIONERS PHONE 386 BtlewBallingham National lank Carlson: I believe that it is necessary for the student body to pass thismeasure now. A failure of the vote to raise the fees would put Western behind, and possibly without,student government and stu-" dent functions. OTHER METHODS Question: If the fee raise does notpass, how do you propose we finance a SUB? Brewer: I couldn't suggest another way to finance it.Carlson: If this fails I believe that the voters should be informed more strongly of the need and that withpossible.revision the blil should be put before the voters as soon as possible.

K AMPUS KLUB ORNER By ALLEN JUNG Club members and officers: what has your group done in response to the former ICC resolution? If you will recall the idea ofthis resolution, it was suggested that clubs select qualified members to run. for office. If not possible toselect candidates from within- the organization, it would be possible for the group to sponsor a non-member who is running for electionn. To date, it may be noted with some disappointment that not many of the organizations on campus have taken any definite action on this proposal. However the stimulation coming with surge of spirit from the write-in campaigns is a factor which does tend to create moreinterest in the election.

W. Haggard. The legislators met with the College's Board of Trustees and withDr. Haggard at a biennial dinner at the Leopold hotel. A brochure prepared by the college outlining theapproach problem was distributed and discussed. The brochure pointed out that High street, theprincipal approach to the college from Bellingham and from state highway 99 (Holly street), is narrow,badly deteriorated, and inadequate for today's large and growing enrollment at the college. "It seems fairto say thatthe legislature has a responsibility for the street between a state highway and a stateinstitution," the brochure states. "The college serves the entire state; 58 per cent of the enrollmentis from outside Bellingham and Whatcom county." PRECEDENTS SET According to the brochure there are precedents at the University of "Washington and the state college of Washington for anappropriation to make WWC more accessible to students and to the public. Cost of improvementsand purchase of properties would total ,$241,- 604.20 according to the city engineer. This wouldinclude the widening of .Indian street, and construction of a diagonal street from approximately thejunction of Myrtle and Indian streets to High street north of Oak street. Pictures showing crowdedtraffic conditions and disintegrating pavements on High street are. included in the brochure.Salesman Wanted Students are needed to sell advertising for the Collegian.

Dr. HaqqardForesees Expansion of Campus ~ ^ . . „ „ . „„. ,„ ,««=„ J ^^.r t™ o/MiUnm +YV t.hfiEdens annex. Dr. Haggard stated Western Washington college, one of Bellingham's largest businesses, is growing both in the size of student body and in physical structure. It is likely that the current"growing pains" will not let-up, but will even increase in magnitude in the future. POPULATIONINCREASES According to Dr. Haggard, the steady increase of student population as shown in the fallenrollment figures of 1,249 in 1952, 1,504 in 1954, and the anticipated 1700 (or more) next fall has made additional building imperative. The construction of the annex to Edens hall, which will provide housing for many additional girls next fall, is now well under way. The excavators have finished and the generalcontractor has taken over. Other than the $500,000 women's dormitory, two additions to the men'sdormitory are also being studied. The college will request $1,674,036 for capital outlays from the 1955state legislature. Of this amount, $1,250,000 is needed for a science building; $215,000 for a healthcenter; $87,000 for conversion of the old auditorium into classroom and office space, and funds for thepurchase of the four lots in front of the new Edens annex. Dr. Haggard stated that the science building,conversion of the old auditorium, and purchase of the properties in front of the new annex are a must.The college president forsees vast expansion of the campus and buildings in the near future. Dr.Haggard said, "The problems of growth and development which we see ahead are the kinds ofproblems with which we will enjoy working." ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1955 January 7 - Page 2 ---------- Page Two WWCollegian Friday, January 7, 1955 Recruits May Lose Many Benefits Recently PresidentEisenhower issued an executive order which directly affected many Western students—those men whowill go into the service before their college career is over. The order was to cut off for new recruits a greatamount of veteran's benefits that were granted about the outbreak of the war in Korea. SEVERALBENEFITS MAY BE GONE The benefits grantee! the veterans of the Korean war which will be affectedinclude hospitalization and non-service connected pensions, Gl loan assistance for the purchase ofhomes, farms, businesses, and EDUCATIONAL ALLOWANCES. No official word has been received bythe Veteran's Administration but the move is definitely being considered. It must be pointed out, however, that even if the proposed action goes through it will not affect the persons who are in the service already. White House Secretary James C. Hagerty said the proposed action would apply principally to those whoenter the armed forces after January 31, 1955. An immediate reaction to this news would be that thestate of national emergency which President Truman declared in 1950 was terminated. THIS IS NOTTRUE. The only remaining reason for the proposed action is to cut down on governmental expenses. Thegovernment spends approximately $45,000,000 a month for educational and training benefits forveterans. To the average citizen this figure is staggering. BILLION SPENT FOR DEFENSE If thatfigure seems high, consider the billions that are spent for war and defense. The billions spent for war anddefense are, of course, necessary. The money spent for the training of veterans is very necessary also.Consider the many veterans at Western who are going on the Gl bill. The majority of those would probably not go if the Gl bill were not in effect. At any rate they would have a much rougher time getting through.For a family man the sacrifices he would have to make would almost make a college education animpossibility. COUNTRY NEEDS TEACHERS All over the nation there is a hue and cry for moreteachers. If the proposed action goes through the teacher shortage will become even more acute. If the country wants teacher it will 'have to pay for them. Writer Deadline 24 Days Off; Rush of MaterialExpected With the,. January 31 deadline for submission of material to the Writer only 24 short days off,students should finish their stories, poems and essays and hand them in. The recent doubling of prizesis expected to bring a rush of manuscripts at the last moment, according to Dave Gay, publicity directorfor the magazine. Material may be submitted to either of the advisors, Mr. Annis Hovde, English,Annex, or Mr. James O'Brien, room 42, Old Main, or to any staff member—Bob Carey, ClaraLongstreth, Bill Waring, Darrel Parry, Gary Douglas, Carolyn Keene, or Dave Gay. Manuscripts may also be submitted by being placed in a box provided in the Collegian office, room 126. - Of the total $170provided for prizes, $85 will be awarded each of Winter and Spring: quarters. Distribution and amountin each of poetry, essay, and short story section will be decided soon. All judging of manuscripts forprizes will be done off campus. Members of the 'English department of Washington State college atPullman, Washington, will judge material in the Winter quarter issue of the magazine. Allmanuscripts submitted should be typewritten, double-spaced on one side of sheet of typing paper.Authors should keep a carbon copy of their manuscript. Wesvets Schedule First Winter Meet TheWesvets, Western's veteran's organization, will hold its first meeting of the winter quarter nextMonday, January 10, at 7:30 in room 120 of Old Main. This meeting will be particularly important, asplans for the forthcoming veterans' social will be discussed and settled.

Victor, world-famous Arctic explorer, will present his experiences during five years in Greenland in the color film, "Expedition Ice Cap" at 10 a. m.,Tuesday January 11, in the college auditorium, as part of the Artist and Lecturers' series.ORGANIZES EXPEDITION Mr. Victor organized his five-year scientific expedition in 1948 for the purpose of checking the weather on a year-round basis in the center of the Ice Cap. Scientists have longsuspected that much of the bad PAUL E. VICTOR weather which sweeps Europe and perhaps the entire Northern Hemisphere is manufactured on the Ice Cap; Victor wished to verify this theory and toconduct extensive exploration. He and his fellow scientists burrowed into ice and snow two milesdeep in order to construct their research laboratories. Planes parachuted their food and supplies. The men explored more than 11,000 miles of unknown lands. In vivid contrast to the severe Arctic winter,the film shows also the Greenland spring with its animals, birds, and flowers. FIRST VISIT IN 1934Paul Victor made his first visit to the Arctic in 1934 where he crossed the Ice Cap on foot with dog-sleds, was adopted by the Eskimo family, and lived for a year in their igloo. There he gathered material for hisbook "The Great Famine" which was published in 1954. Mr. Victor is proud of his rare status as a citizen of both the United States and his native France. He spent four years in the United States armedforces during World War n. Later, in 1946, he put France on the polar map by organizing the Frenchpolar expedition.

This is the largest number ever to register on opening day and is an 18 per cent increase over the total of 1093 who registered on openingday last winter quarter. Over 1400 students had registered by noon on Wednesday. Waiting lines were long, but Registrar Donald Ferris said that he did not believe anyone was in line more than half anhour at any particular place. The final registration was slowed down somewhat by over 100 people whohad failed to pre-register and who ran into trouble with closed classes. New sections of the closedclasses were formed in most instances. Sometime in the future it may be necessary to initiate a newmethod of registration here at Western similar to that now used at the University of Washington,according to Mr. Ferris.

Before we start our sport news for this week I would like totake a line or two to congratulate Jan Matthews and LeRoy Murray on the fine job they did on the sport'spage of the "cub" edition. It was nice to see the change in the style of writing which they presented. Tostart this week's column off with something different, let's start with a question. What sport is com-* -71— monly called this nation's favorite that when it's tournament time pastime? As with every sport fan it is baseball. The statistics show that that every year more people pass through the turnstiles to watchthe diamond performers display then-talents than in any other sport. For track prospects making theirrounds years baseball has reigned supreme on the non-participant side of the ledger. Do you knowwhich sport leads the pack in the actual number of participants in the sport? Some will say golf but alook at the record book tells that the fastest growing sport in America is bowling. It leads golf almost two to one. WWC FOLLOWS TREND Here at Western we are following the national trend by having a great increase in number of participants engaged in intramural bowling this year. Mr. Sam Carver, intramuraldirector, loves to tell about the Northwest district bowling tournament which was held last year atWashington State college. The Western all-stars, a team composed of the outstanding bowlers in theintramural program, placed a close third behind WSC and the University of Washington. Consider thefact that they were matched against the best oppostion nine western colleges could present they did anexcellent job for the Blue and White.

Western dropped two non-league tilts to the Central Washington Wildcats over the vacation. Thefirst night Western came close but lost 68-61. In the second game the Vikings had trouble and dropped a 91-77 decision. Central merely was faster than the Vikings. This fact tells a lot of the story. TheWildcats also had excellent ball handling and were very sharp shooters from the floor. Although Western was badliy outclassed in most departments ,they showed up well in the rebound department.Central hit well over 40 per cent of the shots. SEVERAL PLAYERS SHOW All was not darkness for the squad from Western. Several ball players showed up very well giving an indication of better things tocome.

George Barney wasmarried during the holidays, and a few of the boys moved into an apartment where they can burn theirown hash. Their vacated abodes have been filled with newcomers. These new arrivals at Mathes areLoren Jackson from Pinehurst, Thomas Shane and Lee Campbell from Mount Vernon, and Marshall Field from Vancouver. Tom is a transfer from the Cow College over at Pullman, Marsh is a Viking who justchanged residence, and Lee is a Viking who is returning to our hallowed halls of learning (?) after a few years' deluxe tour of the world while wearing a blue suit on one of Uncle Sam's nice grey-painted ships.Harborview Hall Well, here we go again with a new quarter and what's better yet, a new year. Everyone'sback at good old Harborview with their grade point averages or presents. Liz Carlson, Evalyn Bickers,and Alice Chenier really got the neaty g.p.a.'s and Clara Quigley made out like a bandit in the presentdepartment. The rest of us are just here for another quarter. Kathy Goodwin is with us no more as she transferred to E.J.C. so Jean Dunham has moved I n as of today. Clara Quigley is another newresident this quarter in place of Helen Snowden who moved down two doors. Barb West and DeeSmith are going on a painting spree in their kitchen and everyone else seems to be either getting anew hairdo or going on a diet but one thing sure . . . we are all changing this quarter!

Western Mermen Meet Huskies This Friday the Western splash-men take on the Huskies of theUniversity of Washington in a dual meet at the U. of W. After the long layoff over vacation the. swimmers are working hard to get in shape for the coming contest. Coach Do Sande is still trying to interest moremen into turning: out for the team. A swim meet includes ten events and each team places two men in each event. The team needs at least ten men to place two men in each event. To ask a swimmer toswim three events is almost an impossibility. It can be done but it is very hard. Both the University ofWashington and Washington State have traveling teams of about 20. Western still needs manymore swimmers. The team now consists of twelve members. Ed Papen is the cornerstone of theteam. He will probably swim the 50 and 100 yard free style sprints. Hal Roberts is the standout in thedistance events. Dan Scribner and Don Daverin are both working on the 200 yard breast stroke. Bothwere on the team last year and both made their letters. Mike Arnot is still doubtful whether he will beable to be in the meet or not. Mike injured his arm skiing. He usually swims in the free style sprints. Ron Barber is a newcomer and is expected to do well in the 200 yard back stroke. Diving is held down by"Old Faithful" Alan Swan-berg. He has been with the team for two years. Gordon Pfister has beenworking out on all strokes but the specific event is not yet known. Chuck Granger is expected to do wellin the 200 free style. This is Chucks first year on the team. Jim Rick is taking on all comers and couldbe a point getter in the 200 breast stroke. Pat Gerspacher is new to the team and has had littleexperience in swimming. Bob Nan-ney has been put on a strict diet and will not be able to travel. Welose a good distance man. Anyone interested in turning out for the swim team is asked to be at thecollege pool at 5 p. m. The team' still needs anyone who is willing to turn out. welcome to your firstquarter at grand ole'Western. Rings—rings—rings. It's so disgusting. Never did believe in Santybefore but doubts are beginning to form a little. Lois Chudek and An-nett Mullen have joined themiserable ranks of being "engaged."

It seemsthat at Western there are several people who profess to these religions. According to the Bureau ofResearch, 20 people who listed the Protestant religion as their own on the college entrance tests,misspelled it. "Most are in a sense logical and derive from faulty pronunciation," the Research reportstated, adding that "This might be traced to an excessive stress on phonics in our public schools."One person listed his religion as Baptish, twenty as Luthern, and one as Pryresterian.

'Spirit' Cast Near Crucial Moment Blithe Spirit swings into high gear as opening night, Nov. 16, looms on the immediate dramatic horizon. Westernthespians, gearing themselves for the "crucial moment" have stepped up their rehearsing program to twice a day.

Seven thespians will perform in the Noel Coward production: Esther Kerr,Janice Benson, Al Mathieson, Jim Eaton, Sharon Toney, Dorothy Tonstad, and Betty Mock. Backstage, Mark Flanders and his fourteen member stage crew rapidly construct the production's scenery. Scenesnow under construction will be employed in all three acts. Staging will be erected sometime this weekaccording to Flanders. Blithe Spirit, first presented on the American stage in 1941, employs novelists ofan undefined rank, ghosts of a definite sex, and seances of a mysterious nature. Charles, theprotagonist, striving to add authenticity to a forthcoming novel, engages the services of a medium for purely literary purposes. The medium, Madame Acarti, by intricacies known only to herself and otherreputable people of her profession, materializes the author's first wife —unknown, however, tcT thenovelist's second wife. Wha$ follows with two wives (?) in the house would no doubt try the nerves ofany husband. Director Brewster has indicated that all actors "are fitting well into their parts" and that"rehearsals are shaping up fine-" Blithe Spirit will run for two nights, Nov. 16 and 17.

New Early Registration Plan Up to Students A new plan for earlyregistration for next quarter has been proposed at Western, according to Don Ferris, registrar. Ifapproved, the plan calls for optional registration during the week of Dec. 10 to 14. Student opinion on the plan will be sampled during classes sometime next week, Ferris reported. The proposition would givemany students an extra holiday on Jan. 2, and would avoid'Overcrowding and long registration lines onthat date, he said. It is hoped that 500 to 600 students would have their fees paid and have completed registration before Christmas. "This would take a great deal of pressure off the regular registration day,"Ferris declared.

Reputed to bring a refreshing wit andinfectious enthusiasm to his subject, Dr. de Terra points out that digging for relics of pre-historic man can be fun, as well as back-breaking labor and rare good fortune. He recently returned to this country afterspending the summer searching in Italy for fossils of a human creature estimated to be 10,000,000years old. Only 26 fragments of such fossils have previously been discovered. Until recently they werethought to belong to a long-extinct mountain ape.

This was the amendment made byBOC at its Wednesday meeting to Article eight of the ASB By-Laws This means that after two years ofservice as student manager, a student shall receive a pullover sweater with one stripe. On completionof a third year he shall be awarded a jacket. When he finishes his fourth year he shall receive a coatsweater with three stripes or a blanket upon graduation. Tom Romerdahl and Bill Seibler stressed thepoint that student managers spend many extra hours taking care of equipment and doing othernecessary jobs.

Champion phone 5 16 Central Here For Big Final Contest Fielding a spirited and determinedteam, Western's Vikings celebrated Homecoming last Saturday with a rousing 14-13 victory over thefavored Eastern Washington Savages. Western began its initial scoring drive in the first quarter fromthe 20-yard line. Aided by a 33-yard pass play, Bruce Randall to Mel Bowden, Western scored in 13plays, Randall tallying on a 4-yard sneak over center. Beginning the second half with a 7-0 lead, theVikings extended their margin to 14-0. Bowden intercepted an Eastern pass on the Savages' 38-yardline, running it back to the 22. An 18-yard pass from Randall to Sam Martin, followed by Randall's plunge for the score, ended the Viking scoring. Late in the third quarter Eastern recovered a Western fumbleon the Viking 19-yard line, and reached pay dirt four plays later. On the point after attempt, BertLindman, Western lineman, shot the gap and blocked the kick, an effort which resulted in the one-point margin of victory. Eastern's final touchdown resulted from the recovery of a Western fumble on theViking 7-yard line. "Western's victory can be attributed to a fine team effort," stated the Viking coach,John Kulbitski, "and the fact that working hard all How to get off to a flying start The way to keep moving in free-and-easy comfort is to start with Arrow underwear.

Western's chances for a third place tie with PLC rest on next Sat- Sports Snorts By JOHNBETROZOFF Not a person left the ball game- Saturday until the final gun. It was a thriller down to thewire for the spectators and a real game for the team. That game was act one of "The Scholarship Story,"by Western students, a drama in unlimited acts. One victory does not give us the miracle expected bymany, but it does put us near the entrance to miracle alley. It was a team victory, the line and the backswere great. But it's in the past. We have a new opponent tomorrow afternoon— Central Washington.This will be the big game now, the final game of the year. A Western win could lift them to a tie for thirdplace (yes, third place, dad). That is if PLC gets beat by CPS (who has already won the title) andWhitworth beats Eastern—which is probable. This would put Western in a two-way tie for second. IfEastern wins it would be a three-way tie for third—I think. It is very confusing. Anyway, it all hinges on a Viking victory tomorrow. Let's really back those Vikings in this last one. COMMENTS TAKENPossibly my comment about poor athletic coverage of Western sports by certain news sources got some consideration. Western got a good playup on the Eastern game. Of course we won and that could have been the reason. I hope not. There was excellent coverage, I think. This is what I meant by part of thesport-light. I wasn't trying to be nasty, just pointing out a viewpoint shared by myself and some otherunmentionable people. I definitely am not trying to dictate a policy. I sincerely hope Westerncontinues to get good sports coverage. It is a vital factor between Western and the people of this vicinity. We want them to know what happens, even if we lose. INDIVIDUAL STANDOUTS To point to the mostoutstanding player against Eastern S a t u r d ay would be hard. Probably it should go to the stalwartwork of Bill Lar-sen in the line. But there was also some great work by Hugh Locker, Rod Schott, NedOlson, Ed Melbourne, Bob Wilkenson and several others. In the backfield it would be impossiblebecause Bill Karwacki, Bruce Randall, Mel Bowden, Sam Martin and the rest did very good. As Kulbitski said, "It was a team victory." BATTERSBY "BOG" As Lappenbusch has pointed out several times, theopposing teams in football call our field Battersby "Bog." You have been to a ball game so youunderstand the reason. That place is really a bog. The field between the 40-yard lines is nothing butmud. And the part that runs into the baseball infield has no turf at all. So you can imagine what a "bog" it is on that end. And to top off the poorness of the field, it doesn't have a clock. There were some anxious moments Saturday as to how much time was left. No indication is ever given. It might be helping us winball games, though. Bert Lindman urday's contest, at Battersby field, against Central's Wildcats.

Both team and coach are to be highlycommended on their fine performance against the Savages. Their contribution to the Homecomingfestivities was certainly no little part. Thanks go to Don Six and Sharon Andreasen, Homecoming co-chairmen, for doing an excellent job. Two of their com-mitee members—Gail Tuininga and BillSiebler—are to be especially conmended on their jobs as co-chairmen of the skit program, whichhas been called one of the best-run programs in ten years. If you attended you will surely agree that itwas handled wonderfully. It appears that student government at Western is still alive. Thirteen peoplehave filed for the BOC positions, with four one-year seats vacant and one two-quarter position and threefor the two-quarter position. This promises to be a hot race; keep yourself informed, it may proveinteresting. The special committee set up to codify election procedures has arrived at some revisionsand.1 many others are expected before the job is completed. As a final note, since the weekend will beso long, and no one wished to sponsor the usual mixer, there will be none this Friday. Ken Moffett,President, ASWWCE From Other Campuses (ACP)—There may be a change in construction plans atArizona State College in Tempe because of an archaeological discovery. Evidence of an ancient Indiancivilization has been discovered at the site of a modern dormitory to be built next month on the ASCcampus. (ACP) — And this from the United Press via the Daily Kan-san: In Batavia, New York, a drummajor flipped his baton into the air during a parade and was startled when it didn't come down. He looked up and found that the metal baton was fused to a 5,000 volt power line suspended across the street.It caused a 50-minute power failure. (ACP) — The University of Texas was faced with quite a problem this fall. It seems that it sent out more dormitory space contracts than there were available rooms. As a result, 16 students showed up with contracts, only to find that they didn't have a room. Since thattime, they've been living in the dormitory hallways.

This editor, having been known to slightly favor Mr.Stevenson in the national election, received the shortest letter to the editor in the history of the Collegian,Wednesday -morning. Right on the heels of the election returns, its terse message was,"condolences!" Maybe petitions and recalls are good occasionally. We have seen more members of theBoard of Control come to life in the past week than ever before. The special committee on elections,tooK is a working group, turning out some concrete, intelligent proposals to clarify the muddy clauses ofthe ASB constitution. And the number of people filing for BOC, this quarter—plus the interest shown bythem—is no less than a shock. Watch next week's Collegian for what they have to say. Last zveek'sletter to the editor calling us thoughtless and uninformed didn't mention that the editor (and no othermember of the staff) was invited to the A-L "open" meeting two hours before it convened—at which timethe editor was downtown completing necessary work on the Collegian. If students are as slow getting out of Old Main during a real fire as -they were during the drill Wednesday morning there is going to be hellon campus (in the roasting department, that is). The all-clear bell rang even before many of the peoplewere out of the building—and most students didn't get away from it. They were actually afraid to step onthe grass-TO SAVE THEIR LIVES. (Tradition can't be that strong.) American elections are strictlyAmerican: Though Eisenhower was returned to the White House by the largest electoral vote since1936, the party he's been trying to shove off on the people just didn't make it. Democrats swept theCongress, and many states. Even a few individuals brave enough to defy the cult of conformity havebeen heard to utter such subversive phrases as, "though you did badly, Adlai, we admire your politicalfire" Looking Beyond the Grass-roots: Dewey Versus Dulles BY RONN BEAMS DULLES'SUCCESSOR—Now that Secretary of State John Foster Dulles is reported recovering satisfactorily fromhis recent intestinal operation, many political observers are evaluating the growing possibilities of hisretirement from public office.

One request was to prohibit parking on High street infront of the Auditorium-Music building. Another suggestion was to reserve parking spaces across Highstreet from the AM building for loading and unloading passengers. A third proposal was to have across-walk placed in front of the Auditorium. To relieve the congestion on High street it was suggested that during the peak hours, at noon, and after College functions, traffic be re-routed.

Student government elections are fastapproaching, so now is the time to find out who the candidates are and what they are running for. It istruly sad that the out-house that some spirited Western students placed in front of Old Main lastHalloween night was torn down before any students could appreciate it. Standouts in the Western-Eastern game were Sam Martin and Bill Larson. Those two boys played an excellent game. Alsonoticeable was the teamwork and fine spirit that Western possessed.

V,-, Chairmen Plan Carnival Gaiety For Grads, NADINE SCHILLING "Carousel" takes thespotlight. Announcing the "Carousel" theme of homecoming weekend, October 28 and 29, are co-chairmen, Marilyn Scribner and Bill Elwood. Sounds and gaiety as delightful as a carousel will take overthe campus of Western weeks before the big weekend arrives. Students, faculty, and alumni will gather to witness the coronation of Queen Sigrid XVIII and her court, the football game, smorgasbord, Queen'sBall, and the many other events. The carousels were first popularized in France as a feature attraction insmall carnivals that played an important part in the 17th and 18th century social life.*- To the hamlets ofthat day they brought romance and adventure. They provided the background for the French play"Liliom," from which the Rodgers and Hammer-stein musical show, "Carousel" was COLLEGIAN Vol.XLVIII - No. 2 Western Washington College, Bellingham, Washington Sept. 30, 1955 Vikings vs. PiratesTomorrow Night Illegal parking at Western makes the auto owner liable to $1 fine. There are morewomen than then enrolled at Western. New Eating Area As an experimental measure, a new eatingarea for people with sack lunches has been opened in the television lounge. This will be in use betweenthe hours of 10:30 and 1:30, and is expected to reduce crowding in the fountain room. This set-up ison a trial basis. Unless the area is kept clean, the privilege will be discontinued. Roland Sayler, ASBpresident, said recently, "Students should remember that no food is to be carried into the viewingsection of the TV lounge. The established hours should be respected." FTA Mixer Is Tonight Got your dancing shoes ready for a work out? The first all-college mixer, September Swing, will be held tonightfrom 9 to 12 in the gym. Returning students and newcomers on our campus are urged to join in the swirlof fun for the evening. "Swinging music" with a bounce will be provided by Burk Hatfield. Informal clotheswill be on the agenda to swirl and swing with the falling leaves of September. Admission is free andcollege students are invited to come stag,* • or couple. Soft drinks will be provided in the entrance-way down stairs for the tired and thirsty attendants who can "come back to life" with a cold coke ororange. Future Teachers of America is sponsoring the mixer with Jack Campbell acting as generalchairman. Decorations are headed by Thelma Yamishita; Gail Gustaf-son, chaperones; and HelenNobles, publicity. Loren Jackson is clean up chairman, Noel Hendricks is arranging the refreshments,and Gwen Yoshimura is supervising the check room. FTA, a professional organization for prospectiveteachers, will hold its first meeting of the year October 10 at 4 p. m. when president Janet Hansen willwelcome freshmen and sophomores as well as upper classmen. A choice of yearly dues is availableto members: $1.50 for FTA* membership only,"$3.50 for FTA and WEA, or $4.50 for FTA, WEA, andNEA, the National Education Association. Tomorrow night will see the Vikings take the field against a strong Whitworth Pirate team from Spokane. This game, which will be played at 8 p. m. atBattersby field, will feature two of the top teams of the league. Whitworth went through the '54 seasonundefeated. The Viks took their last four games of the '54 season to end up in fourth spot. Of the threeeducational . schools in the State Western took first. This year Whitworth again brings a strong team totown. They have both experience and depth. The Spokane press reports that the Pirates should takeanother Conference title this season. They are rated as one of the strongest small-college teams inthe Northwest. According to Coach Lappenbusch "they are heavy favorites but I believe that the students will come and see a good game." He also stated that "I am satisfied with the boys we have now." Itmight be added that more material is needed for this year's squad. Honesty Appears; Money IsReturned Honesty has struck a blow on Western's campus. Twenty-five dollars was lost this morningby a young miss. Twenty-five dollars is mighty important at anytime but even more so on registrationday. Some honest and straightforward individual found and returned the loot to the registrar's offcie. This person deserves a tip of the hat. Spirit and attitude such as this is what makes Western better, thanmost. Janet Soine Chosen New Editor of/56 Klipsun Year Book Janet Soine, a sophomore, waselected Editor of the Klipsun for 1955-56. This action was taken due to the resignation of MargaretRussell. Janet has been very busy with her new job. She is holding back a few special details of thenew yearbook, but the following are some of the highlights: The Klipsun will contain 168 pages, withmore coloring and larger pictures. It will be printed by lithography, instead of the previous engravingprocess, and will have Smith-crafted covers. Closs photos are being taken by the Juke's Studio. Among the staff members are Ken Bale, head student photographer, Gail Gustafson, business manager, andMr. James Bliss, Publications Adviser. It is expected that there will be a full staff of 10 or 15 students.Janet does mention, however, that anyone who is interested in joining the Klipsun staff may enroll inEnglish 208, which is a one credit course dealing with the mechanics of yearbook publication. LoungeHours Listed On Cards Students who want to know the lounge.and library hours at Western may have overlooked a source within easy reach. On the backs of all student activities tickets, these hours arestated. produced. Even, in this age of complicated gadgetry the carousel is still the favorite carnival andamusement park attraction. Perhaps it typifies something fundamental in man's inner nature. With aworld so intent on getting somewhere, it is relaxing., to., just., whirl., musically around and around and get nowhere. The co-chairmen expressed their feelirigs this way, "Though our Carousel doesn't whirl,we want it to express the same carefree spirit and provide many ..memorable moments for yourenjoyment." Plans began last spring when committees were formed to handle the many activities in thewhole affair. Working with Scrib and BUI and adviser Halldor Karason are kick-off assembly chairmenJohn Sundquist and Sandra Hall; Skits chairmen Gene Langill and Jean Dunham; displays BarrieBrownell and Dean Dingerson; mixer, Pat Hollingsworth and Gave Caton. Lucille Grace will take chargeof the coffee hour, while Barbara Donnelly plans the smorgasbord. The Helmsmen will work for a peprally, parade, and bonfire to" excel all those in the past. Jerry Ramey is chairman of the coronationassembly, and Dorothy Flora and Rosalee Swedberg will plan the Queen's affairs. The Queen's Ball is being planned by Valkyrie.

Is Lakewood a waste of students' time ,money and'effortf We surely hopenot, but only the students can decide. If these recreation facilities on Lake Whatcom are used andenjoyed by students and student groups, we feel it is money well spent. The Board of Control felt thisway when they spent more than $800 for major improvements this summer. They figured theseimprovements were what was needed to stimulate use of Lakewood. s Improvements made this summer-include construction of a low-level road to the cabin, conversion of a dressing-house to a boat-house witha ramp to the water, and the purchase of additional furniture for the cabin. Construction of a. floating dockwas also begun. -•*'•••* /;.•- gt; '^" gt;- We hope the students will demonstrate that theBOC was right in making this investment.

Since then he has continued with his studies in addition to fillingconcert engagements and appearing on radio and television programs. Recently he appeared onBroadway in the production of "Kismet." While he was a student at Boston University College ofMusic, Driscoll was chosen by Igor Stravinsky to sing the title role in that composer's opera, "TheRake's Progress." His performance as Tom Rakewell earned him high critical praise and the unreservedendorsement of Stravinsky himself. Driscoll is a versatile singer. He includes in his repertoire standard operatic roles such as Mozart's "Magic Flute" and "The Abduction from the Seraglio" and Verdi's"Falstaff." He is also at home performing contemporary music.

Hovdes Staying at Capri Villa; Will Go to Rome for Study By DELL ABELEINAnnis J. Hovde, English professor at Western, and his family, are vacationing and studying at a villaon the Isle of Capri, in the Mediterranean. * The villa belongs to W. H. Auden, English poet, wholectured at WWCE last year. The Hovdes are "taking it over" in the absence of Mr. Auden, according toDr. M. F. Cederstrom of the English department. Mrs. Hovde, an artist who has won several awards,will do painting while on the island. Her husband will be working on his doctor's thesis. Dr.Cederstrom believes his topic will be on a comparison between American and Italian literature. TheHovdes will probably spend half a year at the villa, and then go to Rome to study for another half year. A leisurely boat trip was the Hovde's mode of transportation to Capri. They went by way of northernItaly, northern Africa and Sicily. The English professor saw action in those regions during World War Two. LITTLE MAN MAN ON CAMPUS By Bibler "You know how fast he jumps into bed-well, last nite we 'short-sheeted' him." ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1955 September 30 - Page 3 ---------- Student Offers Suggestions For Gaining College Success #J By BOB BOWMAN (Ed. note: Thefollowing words of wisdom, written by a Western alumnus, were first published in the Collegian lastsummer.) The registrar's bulletin of any college should list a course for freshmen entitled "Techniques of Professor Evaluation No. 101." Why educational institutions do not list such a course is a mysterywhich may some day be solved by a Congressional committee, for the value of such a class tostudents would be beyond estimation. ' The class would have one major objective, to teach thestudent to quickly and accurately evaluate the character and idiosyncrasies of individual collegeprofessors. Without such instruction most students spend months and even years of , uncertaintyregarding what to expect from a new prof and never do make a satisfactory adjustment to his teaching. In the absence of such a course I would like to outline a plan which may be of value to new studentsdesiring aid in this vital area. (Lest someone challenge my authority in this field I point with pride to thefact that I spent many extra quarters here in an attempt to obtain a degree. If, indeed, we learn bydoing, my authority should be supreme for I have observed more profs in action than many PhJD's.)My plan of evaluation is simple; the student should listen carefully for revealing statements madeduring the first hour of instruction. I have listed seven of the most common of these statements andthe appropriate action, if any, which may be taken by the student. As time progresses the observantscholar can add many new clues to his list but these should act as an introduction. Following is a list ofstatements of which you must beware: Houses Will Meet And Organize for Future Activities Old andnew students alike will soon have their first official opportunity to participate in organized houseactivities at WWCE. The occasion will be Tuesday, October 4, when each house andTdormitory willmeet to organize. Taking first place on the agenda will be electing officers and making plans forhomecoming. The larger houses, such as Men's Residence Hall, Edehs Hall and Senior Hall, will beruled by a council composed of president, vice president, secretary, treasurer, social chairman andrepresentatives from eacn corridor or class. A reporter for the Collegian will also be chosen. Smallerhouses may elect all officers or only select one general chairman. Plans will be made for theHomecoming weekend, which will include displays by each house. Activities for the quarter andremainder of the year will also be discussed. Large house meetings will be held at least once aquarter, council meetings once a week and small house meetings as often as needed. The housemother acts as an advisor for each group. 1. "Grades really don't matter; it's the information youacquire that counts." This is probably the most popular fiction of college professors. You will hear it over and over again until the day you are called to the Dean's Office to be put on probation. No action isrequired on your part, just sit by and don't be misled. 2. "The only stupid question is the questionunasked." This noble assertion is designed as a clever trap. Woe betide the unwise soul who asks aquestion, any question, in this man's presence. He will immediately have his poor bewildered brainspread out for the amusement of the class. Better to unask a stupid question than to risk mentaldissection with an intelligent one. 3. "If you disagree with me, say so." Watch the prof's eyes light upwhen he says this! Also note that the successful students always agree with him. They have probablywatched the crucifixion of someone who disagreed and wish to avoid a similar fate. Proper action on your part: nod your head in obvious agreement. 4. "I think we might do a bit of research on this subject." The joker in this sentence is the word "bit." You have never dreamed that such a small word covers such alarge area. The thing for you to do is to trot over to the library and reserve a pew. Find one near acalendar for it's nice to watch the days drag by. 5. "The text is very poor^ut we will survey it anyway."v.W Don't let this comment ...mislead you. In addition 4o knowing ev$ry thing "the author says, youwillflje expected to know what is vw^rig with what he says; This js/^Plly very difficult because eveyyo^^isright sometimes and fmding^^Lt is wrong with what is rigWJ^^ . Skip it. Drop the" class. : ';^lr"' 6. "Testsreally mean very ^ l l ^ so . . . " lt; ••• j: - This sounds good the first s||rhe you hear it but neveragain. Some of the things that can be domain lieu of tests shouldn't happen J ^ a goat. If you have achoice, tw|^'a test, any test. ^... 7. "I am inclined to give a , ^ b - jective test." •''." -r The awfulapplication of. this comment are too dreadful to put on paper. Ask any upper classmen what thisinstructor means, t$um show up the last day of the quarter with a dozen pencils and a box bf aspirins.i:i Probably the list above should ^be entitled, "The Sevenfold Path'i to Collegiate Achievement" andmemorized by every college boy. t it springs directly from the spmew$at hardened heart of one whohas disregarded grades, asked stupid questions, disagreed with professors^ surveyed texts and "Related literature," and taken subjective tests. Now excuse me, I have an appointment with the Dean.Welcome Week Mixer Draws Over 400; Dean McDonald Mixes Up Freshmen There wasn't an emptychair in the gym last Friday night at the Welcome week mixer. A crowd of more than four hundredappeared to have a very enjoyable time dancing to the music of Bob Casto and his All-School Five.The dance, honoring the new students on campus, was one of the biggest in recent years. Old studentswere on hand in force to welcome the new students to the campus. Dean McDonald was his usual jollyself in conducting several u-nique games in honor of the many new students. His little methods of getting people acquainted was well received and worked quite successfully as many people met theirclassmates. Refreshments were served during intermission and a hungry crowd devoured most of whatwas provided. Lois Reinholt was in charge of the refreshments. With her crew, she did a fine job ofproviding and serving food and drink (soft). Barrie Brownell and crew were at the door putting name tagson everyone: new students, committee, and faculty members. Some of the frosh printed their names sosmall that it was all in vain as you couldn't read them. The hall was beautifully decorated by LoieLindberg and her committee. Blue and white streamers, flowing from a center piece of balloons, werevery attractive and quickly torn down after the dance by souvenir seekers. Members of the facultypresent were in accordance with the rest of the students in the opinion that it was a successful dance.The dance was under the general direction of Jan Kliensorge and Brad Kenyon. Dramatics Tryouts AreNext Week Tryouts for parts in "The Torch Bearers," a hilarious satire on amateur dramatics and theLittle Theatre Movement, by George Kelly, will be held next week.

Dr. Kuder, acting as intermediary at the assembly, introduced Dr. Keith Murray, who spoke from thefaculty viewpoint on activities in a student's life. Using the expression "college is a total experience," hebegan his speech by reminding the students that the academic side of school is not the only facet which makes for a rounded education. Dr. Murray told the attending students not to become overlyinvolved in social activities, but to scrutinize each group carefully, then choose the ones which wouldbenefit the student and the club. Larry Richardson, a junior, recommended to the students interested in the extra-curricular activities to get started now. He urged all students to volunteer for anyassociation in which they are interested, as there will be no one to hand out a special inivtation. Larryagreed with Dr. Murray in that the benefits gained from activities are broad and varied. After giving adescription of many of the organizations on and off campus, Larry concluded his speech by saying,"Your success and the success of our college depends upon you, the student of WWCE."

After thewar he had soared to a $3,600 per week performer, but Johnny, in his own words, "laid a bomb." TheVictor contract and the radio shows went out the window as quickly as they had come in. He retreatedfrom New York to rebuild the confidence that had been kicked out of him when he failed, and he movedhis family to Chicago. There he became the singing star of Don McNeil's Breakfast Club, earnedhimself a Coral recording contract, and was productive of at least a couple of medium-sized hits peryear.

There should be an interesting and hard foughtcampaign to follow next week. ASSEMBLY HELD TUESDAY - The presentation assembly will be heldnext Tuesday, November 16, where you can see and hear your BOC candidates present theirplatforms.

Still, it is probably one of the most unknown projects on campus. Students shouldbe informed as to what is being done with $1.50 of their fees each quarter. The $1.50 taken out of eachstudent's fees each quarter goes into the Student Union building' fund. The fund raising was slrated in1951. At present there is $15,000 in the fund. This may seem like a lot of money but when balancedagainst the $60,000 that is needed to begin work on the Student Union building, it is a relatively paltrysum. STUDENT UNION BUILDING EXPLAINED What is a Student Union building? A building of this kind would coordinate all such things as the lounge, book store, publications, and recreational facilities. The space which these facilities now occupy would be changed inter classrooms or other useful purposes. It was mentioned that $60,000 was needed to begin construction of the building, this is only a fraction ofthe total cost. The estimated expenditure is $250,000 to.$300,000. The legislature will not give money forany self-supporting buildings, as the Union building would be. The funds must come from student fees,wealthy alumni, business firms, or from budgeting for the building. Even using these suggested sourcesof revenue, the project could not be completed before 1964. There is a committee of five working'on themechanical problems of the project. The difficulties are numerous. However, the need for this type ofthing is apparent—even more so when we consider our rapidly expanding "enrollment. FUND RAISINGCAMPAIGN? It was suggested and tried at one time to raise money for the fund through different type ofprojects. The money, raised was so slight that the idea was abandoned. However perhaps this sort offund-raising campaign would have some merit. It would serve to stir up student interest in the StudentUnion building. At present very few people know very much abput the project. (famfiut Scene .-. . . tyS* T gt;u*Ufi MAYBE 5 TOUCHDOWNS? Tomorrow" afternoon the Vi'ks battle for the,last time in1954. Their' opponents—the Central Wildcats. Judging solely from the quality of the last two gamesplayed by the Vik team it would appear that this may be a game worth seeing. In any event, it is the last of the season and is the last conference game in which old senior players will participate. A big,cheering crowd would, most likely, be inspirational. Who knows? Maybe five touchdowns this time. Seeyou there. BIG BLOW COMING! The Primary election is filed away in the pigeon holes of history now,and everything seems to have gone fairly smoothly. Twelve out of 13 candidates have been selected bythe voters to run in the final ASB elections, November 22, 23. This coming Tuesday these people willappear on stage at a student assembly and state their qualifications and views. It may be an hour well spent. After all, consider that the Board spends over $50,000 of the student money each year. 'CRYSTAL BALL CORNER As I predicted earlier, the leaves are falling. Therefore: you may say that myforecasts have achieved a 100% reliability—well, on leaf falling anyway. In fields other than nature Ipredict that Western will take Central tomorrow, Kaye will take Jack, and that Dave Northrup will run forASB president in ' 1955. Please J Don't sue. I'll retract it all —later. * * * Did you note that the Pressclub won first place in the "tween" acts of the Homecoming skits? Second prize in organizationaldisplays was also won by this fraternal group of pressmen and women. "Oh, so what," says JoeStudent. The amazing thing is that this is the first time in several years that the Press club has takenpart in Homecoming activities. The factor causing the change is "Prosh." Good work, kiddies. YourUncle Bob loves you all. REMBRANDT'S CORNER In the BOC this last week: Humor of the subtler sort. It seems that the Board finally has acted on the "Mural" question. For the information of the frosh this,18 ft. x 5 ft. hunk of paint-smeared canvas was purchased by last year's BOC. It was supposted to besuitably framed and hung in the lounge. Due to delays and mix-ups it wasn't. In fact, it got lost.

BHss WWCollegian Page 2 Friday; November 12, 1954 As acollege, Western provides its students with opportunities to develop almost any interest, bothacademic and e x tr a,- curricular which' students may possess. When one meets a student who hassimply appeared on the campus for four years, one feels sorry that he has neglected to develop hisspecific interests. ' ' • Perhaps one of the more neglected areas is the development, of apersonal and intellectual friendship with faculty members. If any stu-v dent genuinely, wishes "to developwarm and lasting relationships with any member of the faculty, he will find the faculty generous in timeand .interest on behalf of the student. V-In college, emphasis for success ultimately is placed on each student. All of the facilities for planning a successful career are useless except as the student uses them to mold himself into an) enlightened person. , - :; BAY COHRS : ASB President a couple ofenterprising "kiddies" found it and took it to gt;a BOC meeting and demanded that action be taken:After all, the thing -cost' the ASB $300.00| No action was taken, however. The pqwers-that-were instudent government pleaded a.lumber strike for ah; excuse, no tframe materials. It* was lost again.Lost, because no one, apparently, knew where the ugly thing wa*s. Last week, the BOG started lookingfor it. Found it too! In the balcony of the auditorium. Now, I ask you, isn't that a wonderful place tostore a three hundred buck "Object d'art"? * This week the board acted and settled the question. The artdepartment was on hand to offer opinions and this, no doubt, helped the board members" to makeup their minds. • Someone moved to hang the mural on the northeast wall of the student center.Whereupon someone quipped, "Do we. have to hang it at all?" The words weren't half so funny as theplaintive tone used! Dr. Albert Van Aver,- faculty representative, expressed his opinion in a straight-forward and1 decidedly unhumorous fashion. Said he ' in part, ". . . hang it in a place where people areleast likely to see it. . . . artistically monsterous! . . ..a detriment to the college if it is put ,up wherepeople can see it." My opinion: It is a green and brown hodge-podge and doesn't warrant) hanging anyplace. It would, perhaps, make an excellent sail for the boat at Lakewood. (student cabin atLake,Whatcom). Anyway, the motion to hang passed without a dissenting vote being cast. Soon the1953-54 Board's Polly will be hanging in the student center for all, to see. Don't—No, don't, lookbefore dinner! Man! You just won't be able to take it. * • » - • . * ' Love and Erythroblastosis toyou, too. Next week comes an expose of the vice on campus: Tuesday .at 10 a.m. in the mainauditorium. As the Board of Control meeting convened last Wednesday the prbl lem of what to do withthe mural was undertaken again. The. mural had been brought to the student center for observance theBoard, and Mr. Alexander Zawacki and Miss Hazel Plympton fro: the art department were present for their opinions. Mr. Zawacki gave little of the history of the picture. He said that the students can to him in1953 asking about the*- possibility of having a mural painted for the new lounge. He recommendedthat since the student body could not afford a professional artist, they employ a graduate art student to paint it. Close supervision should be maintained by the BOC and the Art department to assure thedesired result. But, he went on to say, the Art department did not see the painting until it wascompleted. The mural should have taken more than a year to paint, but it was a helter-skelterproject—the Board (last year) was trying to get something quick and the artist was in a hurry, for hewas leaving for the service. Thus, an •- unsatisfactory mural painting was the consequence. MURALIN CENTER Rather than place the mural in the lounge, the, Board of Control decided to hang it in. thestudent center,, where it would be less noticeable ' and a reminder to future BOC's to spend thestudents' money more wisely. A report from the Profile editor, Dell Abelein, stated that 655 copies of the Profile had been sold and that they will continue to be on sale in the Co-op. In a report, on the"WorldUniversity- Service, Rosemary Oldow requested that the BOC proclaim February. 11 through.February 18 as World University Service week at Western;, and that it pledge support of the drive. TheBoard approved the "proclamation of the WUS week. FURTHER DISCUSSION Further "discussioncontinued on how contributions should be solicited for . the WUS. Funds were raised at assemblieslast year and many unfavorable comments were received about it; in order to assure that the same would not happen at the Rafael Mendez assembly, which takes place during that week, the Board ruledthat money would not be collected at assembli for the WUS unless the assemb was s expresslydesignated for th; purpose.

The girls won first place in the Homecoming skits and first prize in theoutdoor display competition as well.

This fan spentj the entire • afternoon cheering theWestern team. They just couldn't do anything wrong. RANDALL SHINES Freshman halfback, BruceRandall, the veteran from Sequim, really stood out. His passing was especially good. But outstanding was his defensive play, intercepting two Savage passes to break up two scoring threats. + : ~" ; ~ It wouldbe pretty hard to pick a player of the week so we will let those who saw the game draw their ownconclusions. PLAYERS INJURED Maury Halleck, center, dislocated his thumb midway in the secondquarter and had to sit out the rest of the game. In the third quarter, Willis Ball had a reoccurrance of anold knee injury and had to be carried off the field. Randall was the next player to be injured as hejammed his little finger but remained in the game until the last eight" minutes of play. According to thestatistics! WWC outgained Eastern 276 yards to 166 yards. One hundred and eighty-two Western'syards came on passes. BASKETBALL NEARS On the other side of the sports calendar, reports havebeen received on the progress of WWC's basketball race and when enough dope is received it willbe sent your way. Jerry Swan, Western distance runner, took fourth place in the recent BritishColumbia cross-country championship race held at Vancouver.

Pome seople are always getting their twangs tusted . . . "Hockey, hockeyeverywhere and-i» always some drops of—rain." The gals were pretty fortunate though, it only rainedSunday out of the three games played. They aced out Linfield at 2-0; trounced Clark at 7-0 and bowedgrudgingly but humbly to the U. of Washington to the tune of 3-1. Could be that they rememberedthe game of the weekend before. We hear the gals had to stand in the rain for two and a half hourswhile the driver made some bus repairs. But there's really nothing to changing a tire, is there Pris?Hisa made the defense teams look pretty sick out there most of the time.

Speaking of the U of W game, we hear that it was aroughie. Sally King, in order to prevent being tripped up on a tackle, merely stepped on an opponent'sstick. They say that that gal looked pretty silly running down the field without her hockey weapon.Emme Lewis sorta had the wind taken out of her sails. After dodging and terrific playing around a galof about six foot height she was knocked into the air, did a complete flip and landed flat on her back.S'funny, but we just can't imagine Emme without any wind! Miss Heckerson's long lecture on girls losing things was quite effective until her ring was found in one of the washrooms On the way home. Some ofus simply couldn't go but we're glad the gals had such a wonderful time. Ask anybody who went—trips like these are wearing and sometimes tiring, but well worth the time, money and effort!

PACIFIC U 26, WWC 18 Considering that they were playingtogether as a unit for the first time with only eight turnouts under their belts, the Viks played very goodball. '. Playing outstanding ball for the blue and white was Captain Willis Ball. He looked good on bothoffense and defense. WHITWORTH 33, WWC 0 Western was just outclassed in this bail game. Theboys from across the hump were just too big and too fast for the visiting Westernites. CPS 33, WWC 0The injury ridden Vikings took another one on the chin this time at the hands of the fellows from Tacoma. The only thing the Western men derived from the game was experience. UBC 0, WWC 7 Breakinginto the win side of the ledger, the Vikings finally won a game by beating the luckless Thunderbirds fromUBC 7-0. L AND C 27, WWC 6 Playing in Portland, the invading Viks played flawless ball in the firsthalf and: trotted off the field leading 6-0 at the half.

Bruce has displayed some near sensational ball for the Western eleven, always picking up that extra yard or so when it's needed most. BORN IN IDAHO Glancing back in the history of our star we find that he was born on June 3,1932 in Saint Marys, Idaho. Bruce spent his early boyhood days in Saint Marys, but shortly beforeentering grade school his family moved to Port Angeles. The Randalls moved after only two years in Port Angeles to Sequim, Washington. He attended Carlsberg grade school and Sequim high school.During his four years in senior high, he was active in a host of student activities. He won a bignumeral all four years in baseball and three years in football and basketball. He served as team captainin both the hoop sport and on gridiron during his senior year. Another achievement was added when he was selected on the all-state class "B" basketball team in 1950. RandalPs interests weren't alldirected to sports. He was president of the sophomore class, secretary of the student body in his junioryear and president of the lettermen's the score of 27-0. Eastern never really threatened during the entirefray. Bruce Randall, Viking halfback, played excellent ball for the Western gridiron squad.

So, to answer thesequestions and further enlighten students as to the functions of the BOC this is the first of a series ofarticles dealing with the BOC, ASB committees, and organizations which provide the many services that benefit the student body. BOC DEFINED The Board of Control, as Refined in the ASB constitution,shall have general supervision of all business and financial affairs, property, and activities of thisAssociation; it shall have the control of the disbursement of all funds of this association; it shall havethe power,to appoint, hire, and discharge any employees, appointees, or student managerg. It shall, with the approval of t he school administration, e s t a b l i sh membership fees, formulate budgets, anddetermine admission fees to association events. The BOC shall have charge of t h e association'sactivities and shall grant all awards. The Board-has an ASB budget of approximately seventy thousanddollars to work with this year. The members of your student government are elected by you, thestudent body; four each fall and spring quarters and two winter quarter. If some of the candidates forthe BOC knew in advance the time and energy required to serve on the Board they probably wouldnever have applied; for meetings are held every Wednesday at 4 p. m. and perfect attendance isstressed. Plus—the members are obligated to devote Fisheries Seminar Will Be Presented TheWashington Department, of Fisheries is presenting two programs on fisheries tonight and tomorrowin room 101 of the Industrial Arts building. Tonight's program is from 7:30 to 10, and tomorrow's from9:30 a. m. to 4 p. m. According to R. A. Aim, educational representative for the State Department ofFisheries, this fisheries seminar is the equivalent of a good short course in fish management andconservation. Several short speeches on solutions of many urgent problems besetting the fisheryprogram1 will be discussed during the course of each evening. The Department of Fisheries has beenconducting a scientific management program, but to benefit both fish and people, it is necessary tohave the understanding of the people if it is to be successful. It is expected to draw many commercialand sports fishermen as well as teachers of natural science and social studies.

' CRITICISM CAST Much undeserved criticismseems to be cast upon the Board of Control— mostly from people who just don't understand thesituation or business confronted by the Board. You have the right to pass judgment on yourrepresentatives, but don't form uninvestigated criticisms. They don't deserve it. What they merit is a littlepraise for a thankless job. Get to know the members of your BOC (they are accommodating to meet and talk to) and don't hesitate to take up any problem or issue with them—that is the only way they canknow your desires. The following are the members of the Board of Control: Ray Cohrs, chairman, KeySundal, Gary Douglas, D a ve Gay, Roland Sayler, Rodger Williams, Gordon Pfister, Donna Wray,Lenko Gazija, Ed McFate, Mary Jones, Mrs. Griswold, Dr. Van Aver, Dr. Critchfield, and Dave Northrup.Vets, Trees, Tires, Make College News VETS TAKE PE AT EWC The Eastern Washington Collegeadministration council recently rejected all service-time credit which exempts veterans from physicaleducation requirements. In other words, veterans, at EWC must take PE. Eastern's Veterans' club in aneffort to determine what the policy is in other colleges on the matter wrote to six Northwest colleges.Five answers were received stating that veterans obtained 12 ' quarter-hour credits for service time, six of which may be applied toward PE requirements. WWC was one of the colleges questioned whichhas this policy. Eastern's 283 veterans, many of whom are married, have children, and hold down part-time jobs, have as a club, gone on record with a resolution condemning this new administrativepolicy. One irate Eastern student in a letter to the editor in the Easterner, Cheney's weekly paper, called the policy "a regulation to insure that the lack of interest in PE activities ceases." TIRES, TIES,APPLE TREES Homecoming at Whitworth college in Spokane isn't much different from ours here atWestern except for the fact that instead of cardboard boxes and wooden crates they burn old tires,railroad ties and apple trees. Fed by freshmen, the "Tirefire" consumed 160 rubber tires, several apple trees, and a carload of railroad ties at their recent homecoming festivities.

More Than 800 Attend Dance Over 400couples, including students, faculty members, arid alumni, enjoyed the danceable music of ChuckCabot and his orchestra at the Queen's ball held Saturday night, November 6, at the armory. COURTHONORED The annual Homecoming dance was given this year in honor of Queen Betty Fay and herroyal court of four princesses: Nancy Lange, Senior; Kathy Barbas, junior; Charlotte Rolie,sophomore, and Beverly Bergum, freshman. Many couples had a chance to get their picture taken with a real Gay Nineties effect against a background of a bicycle built for two by sticking their heads through holes cut in the scene. The pictures were developed on the spot and mounted in folders. They made upinto a nice souvenir of the Queen's ball. The armory was decorated by members of Valkyrie and otherhelping hands, including the Wes-vets, on Saturday preceding the dance. The ceiling was covered bywhite, purple, and red crepe.paper streamers. The white streamers hung along the outside and becamedarker as they moved to the center so the entire center of the ceiling was a dark red. A large crown ofsilver foil hung from, the middle with the inscription, "Betty Fay" on .one side arid Queen Sigrid XVII ohthe other. Large notes of silver hung around the walls.

An attempt was made to define the problem (s) that were besetting our footballteam at that time. There was much uproar when the paper containing this definitive editorial hit thestands. The loudest cry of anguish came from due south. The Collegian was accused...harboringdunderheads, crackpots, and assorted other types of irresponsible journalists. In an attempt to get at-the truth of the matter and to see if, the editorial was" a reflection of the student opinion, a poll wastaken. In this poll the students were asked to state the cause or causes (as they saw it) of our football debacles up to that date. They were asked whether or not they thought definitive editorials should bewritten. Overahelmingly the answer was "yes." Questions asked about our team brought fairly clearresults. These results will be posted in the WWCollegian office for interested people. Over 83% of thosepolled read the "nasty" editorial completely. At least 10% read it in part. Slightly less than 10% didn'teven look at it. About 55% said that they thought it covered the football problem. 25% said that it didnot, and the remainder said that the editorial was definite in part only. A question on administrativecontrol of the student press brought VA% for censorship power, 75% for advisory action only, and22Vz% for absolutely no control.

Edens Hall It was like old times atEdens hall this previous week-end with the return of last year's grads and residents.

The basketballteam has been equally successful, also being tied for first place. Tom Sofie sparked the team in theirlatest victory over the talented Globe Crawlers. The boys from the basement are quite concerned overDick Babcock, who is still missing from Saturday night, when he was trapped by a cave-in of the justrecently completed underground tunnel to Edens hall. Supposedly it was an accident, but rumor has it that irate members of MRH dynamited it. Tamerline By MARY NOBLE With Homecoming here andfield hockey in Oregon, Tamerlane's girls were kept quite busy last week-eiid.

Hope everyone else had as nice a times as we did. Bye now.Independence Hall By BLAIR NELSON Hi from newly formed Independence hall, alias the Mrs. Jamesresidence. Last weekend the men(?) of the hall (all nine of them) threw a party to celebrate. DaveHuson was master of ceremonies; Steve McDermott and Russ Hauber were in charge of games, andFrank Wil- "iiams, Jerry White, and Rudy Isturis got the house in the mood. Jim Casey, Don Murpie, and Blair Nelson cleaned up the debris. Guess what?—the party was a big success. In the world ofsports (intramural bsaketball) the Independents are starting to flex' their muscles and move out ofsecond divison. Season's record stood at 2-3 before Tuesday. Things are usually pretty lively around thehouse. To keep pace with Hospice, Independence hall acquired a mascot.

Nancy Baker lived at Spencer hall her first year at Western, missed a year, and is back for herjunior year. We sure hope she will stay with us. Surprise! surprise!

Hospice Inn By CLYDE "SKIP" BAKER Rest finally comes asthe Hospice boys begin to settle down to then-regular school life after a busy but happy week ofactivities. Foul weather dampened the Hospice hopes for a house display when a heavy rainfallcaught, them trying to complete their project. The results were: "Hospice Rained Out, Sorry." So all thehard work of sign committee chairman Mike Webber and helpers, Don Lyle, Don Tackett, DaveJohnson, Pat Gers-pacher, Jack Frisbee, and many others went to nothing but a pool of water andwreckage. However, the skit came off fairly well with good participation. The main characters were Don Tackett as Nell, the Belle of the Yukon; Jack Frisbee as the Savage Villian, and Wally May as Vic theViking, the hero. The supporting cast consisted of Harold Leschuitta, John McEwen, Clink Parker, Pat Gers-pacher, Dave Johnson (narrator), Mike Webber, Don Lyle, Jim Buchanan, and Skip Baker.Committee chairmen were Don Lyle, Jim Buchanan, and Don Tackett. The Hospice basketball quintet was again outclassed in height as well as ability when they lost to the vets. John Tiland kept the teamin the running during the first half. In bowling during the Homecoming week the Hospice five came outon the short end of points. The boys lost their second three pointer to the Five-Fifths this past Tuesday.Hospice Inn sends it's hopes that every one enjoyed Homecoming.

Marquis Hall By MONK The torrid Homecoming week-end is over and all the quality Marquis lads came through in fine style. Saturday night was highlighted by athirteen couple dinner at the 99 cafe. The chicken they served was fairly unconscious and all 26 bodieswere filled to .maximum capacity. After dinner the party broke up and everyone went to private socialgatherings before appearing at the dance.

The winners of the skit and in-between-act prizes wen only-because they werejust a. little better,than runner-up skits and acts. But we found the same flaw on Western's stage as onall other stages. .The audience was aware^ •—! only of- the actors on stage. What about the myriadof unseen personnel that make such shows possible? Take for example the act that won first place for in-between-act entertainment, Press club. Five members were on stage receiving the accolades ofthe audience for their repartee. Yet most Westernites never think about the man responsible for thescript which those actors used. He is Gary Douglas. He was the man who put such ridiculous rhymingcouplets as: "Welcome back to Sehome, lass, *But mind you now, Keep Off the Grass!" on the lips ofthe cast. The performers were responsible for getting the beautifully ridiculous lines over to theaudience it is true, yet where would they have been without the rhythm and nonsense^of the script? Nothalf as funny and not in first place, believe me. "BOY MEETS GIRL" DISCUSSED The same holds truefor "Boy Meets Girl." The last few weeks we have been talking about those people you will be seeing onthe stage next week-end. But we think a note should be given to the sets, props, costumes and so onthat go to make that show a show. When you get your programs next week look not only at the namesof those in the cast, but go over the list of people responsible for seeing to it the actors had more to work with' than just lines. Remember to tell your friends that next week Boy Meets Girl. Prediction: Nextweek all Western will be singing, "With a Pain In My Heart and My Heart's On My Sleeve."

Internationally Known Concordia Choir at Western Wednesday Seniors Rent Caps, Gownsfrom Co-op Measuring for caps and gowns for graduation exercises is now taking place in the Co-op. The rental fee for a cap and gown is $2.75 and $.50 extra for keeping the tassel. So far only 43 seniors outof 250 have been measured. The order for caps and gowns must go in by the middle of February in orderto be filled. Danny Beatty, senior class president, strongly urges every senior to be measured so thathe will be able to wear his cap and gown at -graduation. The Concordia Choir of Concordia college,Moorhead, Minnesota, composed of 65 college men and women will sing in the college auditorium at8:15 p. m„ Wednesday, February 2, under the direction of Paul J. Christiansen. The internationally-known group is sponsored by the Artists and Lecturers' Series together with Bellingham Women'sMusic club and Lutheran churches of the city. The choir is composed of undergraduate students,primarily of Scandinavian origin, from the college of only a little over 1000 students. Yet the New YorkHerald Tribune says of them: "The Concordia Choir is certainly the United States' champion in thechoral department, and Mr. Christiansen's conducting leaves no doubt that he is responsible for thiseminence. He is a master at manipulating- the sheer sound produced by massed voices." Mr.Christiansen has directed the choir at Concordia college since 1937 where he heads the musicdepartment. During the summer, he conducts choral schools and acts as judge and guest conductor atfestivals throughout the states. Dr. F. Melius Christiansen, founder and former conductor of the St.Olaf Choir,' is Paul's father. The younger Christiansen was literally born into his work. Often during hisconcerts, he includes composi-tions written by his father. In 1949, the choral group toured lt; Norwaywhere they won wide acclaim. In their first concert in Oslo, Crown Prince Olaf and Princess Marthawere among the guests. The following day the choir was received at their royal summer home. Laterduring their tour, crowds as large as 6000 turned out for their, programs. Students, faculty, and staff may i secure free tickets for this outstanding attraction at the post office, room 116.

Our primeval ancestors walked about the landscape. Then some genius invented the canoe forfaster travel in the water. The invention of the wheel really gave transportation a shot in the arm. Thisinvention made possible the creating of other modes of transportation: cars, trains, and buses. MUCHGRUMBLING AT WWC At Western much grumbling is done about the latter mode. WWC possessesthree buses. These buses are of 1942 extraction and were donated to Western. They are definitelybeginning to show their age. A price of $800 per bus per year was quoted as the approximate amount ofdepreciation expense. Putting out this much a year on these antiquated vehicles seems a little likepouring money clown the proverbial rat hole. However, as things now stand, the buses must be keptgoing so the expense is necessary. Several possibilities exist which would help alleviate the situation.1. Money could be requested from the state legislature for a bus. 2. The ASB could purchase a bus fromthe funds they have at their disposal. 3. The buses could be junked and buses chartered when ever suchvehicles are needed. SECOND HAND BUSES CHEAP??? There is very little call for second hand busesso a fairly good one can be purchased at low cost. Western is expanding rapidly. Much money is beingasked of the legislature for this expanding. As the enrollment goes up, the need for more and bettertransportation increases. This process would be in the hands of the administration. •_•-;_ Thestudents could also do something about the bad transportation system. The ASB could put out moneyfor a bus. Recently a school in our conference purchased a second-hand bus for something around$700. A good second-hand Greyhound bus could be obtained for approximately $3,000. A good second-hand bus would probably cost somewhere in that range. Considering the depreciation expense of thebuses, this price would not be as much as it first appears. THIRD POSSIBILITY The third possibilitywould bring other problems. Arrangements would have to be made with the bus company. The costwould more than likely run more than the depreciation expense or the cost of buying a bus over a longperiod. Instructors are in mental anguish when taking the buses out on a field trip. Each time they picture themselves and their students stranded in some far off site. Students dread to venture forth in thevehicles due to the extreme discomfort. The "Relics of Western" cannot last much longer no matter howmuch Hadocol they receive. Whatever is to be done, it must be done soon. WWCollegian Page 2 Friday, January 28, 1955 %4 ^ZeyititKOte. . . fy Simon "An interview? I heard about those." With thisambiguous statement, Belina, played by Jackie Willette, paused momentarily from the script of TheHappy Hypochondriac. She seated herself demurely on the divan, stepping out of the character ofBelina as she did so. HAS EXPERIENCE "Did I do any dramatic work in high school? Yes, I guess youcould call it dramatic. I had two roles, both of them character parts, and both of them in comedies." She smiled and then became serious again. "How big is the part of Belina? In the actual count of lines Iwould say it is small. But the importance of the character is not counted only in the number of lines heor she is given." While she spoke her fingers riffled the pages of the script. "Belina's charater is notas complex as it might have been if this play was a tragedy." Turning her head abruptly she lookedtoward the door. As she did so the light caught the highlight of her dark brown hair. " I 'm sorry but you see I have an entrance toward the end of the first act and I wouldn't want to delay the rehearsals bymissing it." BELINA INTERESTING "I think the character of Belina is interesting. She is a sort ofgrasping person, self-centered and false. She makes her husband think that all she does is for himwhen it is for her own gain." She shifted her weight slightly and cast a quick glance again toward thedoor. "She is scornful of all men. All men except those whom she considers more intelligent than she. These are few and far between of course. -x . WESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAN Since 1899Member Associated Collegiate Press PRESS .

By JOEL CARLSON Biology—Recently the Russians developed a two-headed dog.This was not a product of nature, but was brought about by surgery in the neck of one adult dog and theinsertion of the forelegs and head of a smaller puppy. The surgeon, Demikhov, has experimented withreplacing the hearts of dogs with artificial blood pumps. Then he placed an extra heart in a dog. The extra heart and the* original one both pumped in their own rhythm. After many experiments Demikhovfinally achieved success by keeping a two-hearted dog alive for 2% months. With this success,Demikhov tried the experiment with two heads. The two-headed dog lived for only six days. Dr. Demikhov experimented with the dogs heads was described as not a mere stunt, but a part of a long-rangeattempt to learn how damaged organs can be replaced, or how their functions can be performed bymechanical substitutes. THE H-BOMB AND ITS EFFECT ON US Recently a paper written by a FrenchPhysicist Charles-Noel Martin roused the press and public of France. The paper was entitled "On theCumulative Effects of Thermonuclear (hydrogen) Explosions on the Surface of the Globe." Martinwrote, "In the past two years there have been ten H-bomb explosions, each of them equivalent to from1000 to 2500 A-bombs of the type used at Hiroshima. Certain effects on the atmosphere may upset thenatural conditions to which life has become adapted." Martin stated "an H-bomb does the followingthings: (1) It forms nitric acid out of oxygen, nitrogen, and moisture which could acidify the rain over large areas and have an adverse effect on vegetation; (2) When exploded on the ground, the bomb throwsabout one billion tons of pulverized material into the air. This may cut off the strength of the suns rays.(3) Neutrons from the H-bomb explosion turn atmospheric nitrogen into radioactive carbon-14, whosehalf-life is 5,600 years. Absorbed by plants, it eventually enters the tissues of o Their future is our future. Give to WUS. animals and humans. The results are unknown. (4) Radioactive increases m theearth's general level will have an important genetic effect." MARTIN CHECKED THEORIES Martin, atheoretical pyhsicist, has not checked these theories but explained how it may be done, and has invitedscientists to make these observations. None have responded Martin says they cannot do so publiclybecause he believes they are as the weather bureaus are, told by their governments to stay out oihydrogen discussions. The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists says that for civil defense the peoplemust know about the H-bomb reactions.

Lapp Overviews Atomic Ag^; Gives Audience Facts, Figures The leader of the scientific group at both A-bomb tests at Bikini in 1946, Dr. Ralph E. Lapp, spoke tothe students of WWC and guests at last Tuesday's assembly. Guests at the fifth of the Artists andLecturers Series were 16 students from Sedro-Woolley high school and several students fromMount Baker high school. Dr. Lapp, who began his professional career in nuclear physics in 1938when the atom was split, lectured on, "Science Remaking the World." The director of the Washington, D. C, nuclear science service began his talk with the developmental background of nuclear physics.This he divided into four eras: 1895 or ancient history; 1930 or medieval history; recent or wartimehistory; and modern or post-war history. According to Dr. Lapp, Rontgen started the atomic age rolling in 1895 with the discovery of the X-ray. Through the discovery of the X-ray, man had a device to find outwhat was inside the atom. With this tool Lord Rutherford discovered the nucleus. In later yearsEinstein arose to broaden the theories on the electron and, later to discover the "building block ofnature"—the neutron. The inevitable discovery now was fission. This was accomplished when EnricoFermi, of Chicago university, used neutrons to bombard different elements, discovering uranium: ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1955 January 28 - Page 4 ---------- Annual Smoker Held Saturday "Jtom the fyolts Desk By TOM ROMERDAHL In the heart of winter, thesport that usually takes a back seat to basketball and skiing is track. The traditional spring sport isrushing things this year by starting the battle of the headlines in the winter months. The reason for thischange is the Washington State college invitational track and field meet which will be held on March 19 at Pullman. *- Leading the Western squad will be our new coach, Mr. John Kul-bitski. Coach Kulbitskireplaces Mr. Ray Ciszek who is studying at Boston university.

With the cold, rainy weather which is typical of this time of theyear, it is very hard for them to get into shape. One mistake can cause a pulled muscle which would setthem out of the running for the mid- March meet. It is far too early in *the year to say who will be themain point getters for the Blue and White; so today we present only a little of the background of thereturning stars. KEN SWALWELL Ken Swalwell, senior, won his letter for three seasons in a row asweight man for the Blue and White. A look at the record book shows he has copped second place honors for the past three years in the Evergreen conference. Following the conference meet, "Big Ken"walked off with title honors in the state National Athletic Intercollegiate association meet which washeld in Walla Walla. Next stop was the national NAIA meet. Competing against the finest talent in thiscountry's small colleges, our star looked very good in taking home the fourth place ribbon. , Thissummer "Gentle Ken" added another ribbon to his long list of athletic accomplishments. He enteredthe British Empire games and considering the caliber of the opposition which included some of thebest in the world, Ken did remarkably well in winning sixth place. As the past records show, this well-liked young fellow will be a handy man to have around. GERRY SWAN Another young man from northof the border, Gerry Swan, will be in the distance running what Swalwell will be to the weights. The kid that loves to run tells the story about "Nature Boy." He is an excellent trainer who stays in conditionthe year around. This is one of the reasons why he was selected as one of Bellingham's "Man of theYear in Sports" candidates. Last year Swan walked off with, second place honors in both the mile andtwo mile in the conference meet and in the state NAIA meet, he was the outstanding runner of theday. Joining Swalwell in the national meet, Swan looked very good in taking second place. TED WHANRunning the 440-yard dash and the 880-yard run is Ted's business. He is very good at them if you judgeby records. In both the conference and state NAIA meets Whan won the first place ribbon in the 440and 880 yard events. Journeying to Texas "Mr. Speed" won a fourth place honor to add to Western'spoint total. The fleet-footed junior has been doing mostly road work in the past two weeks, but he will nodoubt start practicing on the home oval in the near future. JERRY JOHNSON Holding down the firststaiton on the record-breaking relay teamjvas Jerry Johnson's big contribution to the Blue and White lastyear. This year the Renton-born star should have another great season and rack up plenty of points forthe Vikings. JIM KENNETT The freshman year for Jim Ken-nett was a fruitful one. He was a steadypoint getter in the 440-yard dash event, and also was a member of the championship relay team. Nodoubt swift-footed Ken will give the fans a thrill or two when the big meet rolls around in March.

Eastern got off to a quick start and by halftime piad a 44-28 lead. Midway in the secondperiod the Vikings closed the gap to nine points 65-56, but that was- as close as Western got. Easternhad a torrid 56 per cent shooting mark in the field goals. For the Savages, it was their first league win.For the Vikings, it was their fourth league loss against two wins. Bob Stone lead the Vikings in thescoring department with 17 points. Stone had Coach Bill McDonald worried for a few days preceding thegame because of an infected foot, but the doctor okayed his making the trip. Gary Radliff dropped tenpoints through the hoop to follow Stone with scoring honors. Howard Brooks, returning to the lineup forthe first time since his injury, scored two points. . The Vikings took another one oh the chin Saturdayfrom a well-rested Whitworth team 73-57. The Whits are still undefeated in league play. Whitworth had a36-27 lead at halftime. The Vikings went into a full-court press late in the game but it was to no avail.Bruce Randall took scoring honors for the night with 19 points', 16 of them made by field goals.

H. Atteberry, IA, has begun a campaign to establish safer conditions oncampus. More frequent fire drills for Old Main is one of the key points in the campaign. The group hasput up arrows pointing to fire exits. These arrows were placed on the walls after consultation withCaptain Hennes of the Bellingham fire department. Captain Hennes, Police Chief George Hovde, andStreet Superintendent Chris Thiel established the route the trucks would take on getting to campus. In addition, Captain Hennes helped select the fire escapes to be used by each section of the building.The safety council is raising the stop sign at Campus drive and High street, and is erecting a regulatoryspeed sign on Campus drive and :21st street. Students are cautioned to observe the speed limit of tenmph on campus and 20 mph on Campus drive.

WWCollegian Page 6 Friday, January 28, 1955 Math Department Conducts Survey Of CrowdedClasses Letters of inquiry concerning the general increase of students in colleges and universitiesthroughout the nation, have been sent to 80 such institutions by the Math department of WWC. Thepurpose of this research is to. learn more about the crowded conditions existing elsewhere in colleges approximately the same size as Western Washington college. The information requested by thedepartment consists of the number of hours the instructor teaches, the average hours of the studentsand what they think should be the ideal load for both. Although the math department is the instigator ofthe survey they are interested in overcrowded classrooms in general. It is very apparent, especiallyaround pre-registration time when students sign up for classes and find some of them closed, thatsomething is going to have to be done about the situtation. Mystery Plagues Western; Students GiveSolutions What nocturnal visitor was meandering about the hallowed halls of Western Washingtoncollege Tuesday morning? What did this qtsrange unknown creature want in the Collegian office and why did he, or it, take the receiver off the hook then beat a hasty retreat? These are a few of the questionswhich bothered police and the cutodians at Western Tuesday. Around 5 a. m., the telephone operaotrreported to the police that the receiver was off the hook somewhere in Old Main. The police force wentthrough the building to find the trouble. After considerable investigation, the local gandarmes found thereceiver off the hook in the Collegian office. Consider the fact that after 9:30 p. m. the doors of Old Mainare locked tight and no one or nothing can enter without a key. Several people have theories. One saidthat it was a rat which knocked the receiver from its cradle. (Why should, a rodent take the receiver offthe hook and put it back several times?) Another student says a man from Mars was our nocturnalvisitor. The more realistic students will quickly discount this theory on several counts. The moresuperstitious of us say it was the ghost of an editor-emeritus. Whatever or whoever uV was will probablynever be known unless he turns up again to haunt our hallowed halls of learning. Until It strikes againand is caught the mystery will remain. Movie Draws Crowd; Makes Profit; Next Show-Feb. 12 LITTLEMAN ON CAMPUS "If they show any more shows like that one, I'm going to get myself a front seat,"was the comment of a movie goer last Saturday night. WANTED SEAT CLOSER More than one personexpressed his wish that he had warmed a seat further down the aisle when some of the dance routinesflickered across the screen. Chances are that in the future the movie-goers will occupy seats further tothe front merely for their own visual comfort. Pliny Allen, presented as before-show entertainment,stopped the audience with a new look. He came out dressed in a you-name-it cloak with a bright yellowwig balanced on his head. Another part of his new look was the accordian hanging from his neck. Heopened his performance with a squeeze box rendition of Clarencenceostrofy de Loonis. MAKESPROFIT According to Ron Camfield, financial big shot of the movie racket, the night's gate brought in a profit Profile Addition Out Next Monday The winter supplement to the Profile, Western's studentdirectory and information booklet, will be distributed in the Student Co-op Monday morning.Distribution will also be conducted in the main hall several periods during the day, and will continuethroughout the week. New students may obtain the main edition of the Profile, plus the supplement, at this time. Price of the fall issue is 40 cents. Supplements will not be given to students unless theypresent the winter quarter coupon from the back of the fall edition. Winter quarter supplements contain the names of new students, with their addresses, phone numbers, home towns, class standing, andmarital status. Address, phone, and spelling corrections for old students and faculty, is also included.of $3.60. Two hundred ninety-three people saw the show. Due to conflicting basketball games on theweek-end of February 5, there will be no movie. The show that was scheduled has been cancelled.The next program will be on February 12.

The Ranch ByLANKIE Things have been in the usual state of blissful peace at the old bunkhouse in the past week.The case of the chief and her late breakfast has been solved and the breakfasts are still late. A new set of mysterious circumstances has beset the old place and the chief and her trusty crew aredilligently working to solve it. It seems that last Thursday night a certain member of the sterling crewseems to have entered the threshold of the place in a somewhat uncertain frame of mind that seems to have found its way a little later onto the floor and most of the free and some not free space in theRanch. The chief just about blew her top the next morning when she discovered the dilemma in itssomewhat used state.

Fossils Clues To Rocks' Age Many^people are often curious about the ages of their friends but have you everbeen curious as to the age of rocks? Even if you aren't there are a few people who are doing research inthat direction. Such is the case of Miss Marie Pabst, Science department, who is beginning the study of some fossil ferns and sycads which were sent to her by Dr. Julian Barksdale from the Geologydepartment of the University of Washington. "These ancient plants may prove to be a clue as to theapproximate age of rocks with which they were found," says Miss Pabst. She went on to say that thismay have been 100,000,000 years ago during the Cretaceous age when dinosaurs roamed the earth.These rocks were found last summer in the crest of the Gascades, on the boundry between Whatcomand Chelan counties, by students on a field trip from the University of Washington. Kenzie are co-chairmen of this convention, which is the first to be held at Western in a number of years. Working under these heads is the Girls' commission along with other committees. These groups are meeting everyMonday in the AWS lounge to discuss plans. HOUSED AT EDENS Housing will be provided at Edenshall. According to Lorraine Nat-trass, AWS president, the girls at Edens will have to double up.

Valdimir Q. Petrovich, Prof. of Pol.Sci. University of Novosibirsk Progress! It seems that the Co-op manager, Louis Earle, has taken toheart the motto so often heard around New Years. That is, "Out with the old and in with the new." * Theprogress is in entertainment facilities at Western. A new 100 record jukebox has been installed in theLounge-Fountain in the "grotto" of the auditorium-music building. This huge machine is complete withglowing lights, magnificent volume, and fantastic little arms and knobs that seem infused with a life alltheir own. This altar for the modern music addict was placed in the Lounge last Friday. It replaces a 20record machine that the Associated Students had purchased in 1947. The old machine was, as Earleput it, ". . . worn out." Further, it seems also that no one could be found to make repairs. So the newmacMne was installed by the Advance Amusement Co. on a rental basis. So now all the"Loungeology majors" should be happy and content with the new order. There is a new music machine waiting there, although seldom passively, to take their sweat-streaked dimes and nickels in exchange for the latest in "pop" music. Are the students of "Loungeology 400" (upper division credit) happy? Arethe "Loungeology 151" (lower division course for entering freshmen) joyful over the change? To find theanswer to these questions we braved the storm, swallowed our pride, and descended into the pit. Here is what some of the loungers said . . . PLINY ALLEN A fellow named Pliny Allen, perhaps an alias, who said that he was an Arts Science man with a music major said, "In my opinion the addition to thestudent lounge, namely the new jukebox, is a marvelous thing. Progress in any form is to be desired.To my way of thinking greater progress can be achieved in throwing out all of the records!" MARTINVEZZETTI Another student has other ideas about the new addition to the lounge. He is Martin Vezzetti,a junior in education. Martin was interviewed at the table immediately in front of the new machine;"This is a definite improvement," said he. "I TRY OUR DRIVE-IN CASH AND CARRY MILK PLAN Save14c a Gallon PACKAGE ICE CREAM At Our Driya-ln Hillview Dairy 1824 Cornwall Avenue We ServeLunches and Refreshments like the greater selection of records. I don't care for the "cowboy" music butthe popular is swell. I use this machine frequently." BARBARA JO BERG The next kiddie cornered bySilas was Barbara Jo Berg. Barbara is a blonde, a junior college program student, and a pre-physio-therapy major. She replied to the leading questions with these answers. "The jukebox is nice. Iparticularly like the great number of songs in the machine. The main thing that I don't like is "Cowboy"songs; however., the popular songs seem to be up to date I think it is a great improvement." BELLJOHNSON Bill Johnson, a speech major in TE, had the mechanics point of view. His first words were, "Ithink its a wonderful piece of machinery." He went on to say, "There is a good selection of up-to-date"pops" and so far as I'm concerned it was a very necessary improvement." Its obvious that all the"Loungeology" students are in favor of the new vendor of canned music. With the exception of Mr.Allen, whom I suspect is a campus politician traveling incognito, the comments were all in favor andlooked on the replacement of the old 20 record stu-* dent jukebox as a necessary and desiredimprovement in entertainment facilities. There are those on campus that have ho fondness for thisnoisy pile of plastic and bolts but they are apparently, the minority group in the large group of loungefrequenters. So . . . bear up Beethoven; raise your head again Bach; weep not Rachmaninov; "Hearts ofStone" will pass into limbo before long. It simply can not last! A closing thought: How about someBrubeck recordings on the new jukebox? Students to Select 1955/KampusKot# At Pep Assembly Who will be the "Kampus Kat" of 1955 at Western? The person will be chosen at the Pep assembly nextFriday at 10 a.m. Until then, the candidates will be kept secret. The audience at the assembly will electthe "Kat" by applauding for their favorite candidate. The assenibiy, sponsored by the Pep committee^ ispacked with a variety of entertainment and promises to be a success.

Meets Planned; Concern Grads From Western Plans are now in the making for a series of 15to 18 regional meetings in the state which concern the graduates of WWO who are doing their firstyear of teaching in the public schools.

Those attending the meetings of each schoolwill be of three distinct groups which are: 1. All first year teachers. 2. Supervisors and officials of theschool. 3. Representatives from the colleges of which the teachers graduated. The main idea behind these conferences is to help the teacher plan his fifth year of study. According to Dr. Kuder, directorof student personnel services, "Training follows experience and the first year of teaching experienceshould be helpful in planning the remaining course of study." Blueroom Included In Remodeling Job ForEdens Holl Work on the Edens hall Blueroom was begun on Tuesday, January 25 as part of theremodeling program now in progress on- the building.

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

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

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

H'coming Games, Date to 1924 Homecoming has become a... big affair at Western since itwas first inaugurated in 1924. Results of the 1924 Viking-Cheney Normal game are not known but theteam battled before a fair sized crowd at old Waldo Field in Belling - ham. The Homecoming footballgames were canceled during the 1943-45 years. Last year the Viks were beaten by Pacific LutheranCollege 14-7, but not before they had given the Lutes a battle. Western scored their first TD inconference play early in the game. They stayed on even terms with PLC until injuries hurt both BruceRandall and Skip Hayes. The fast improving, John Kulbit-ski- led, Vikings meet the Eastern WashingtonSavages this year, hoping that they can repeat the score of the last Eastern-Western Homecomingcontest in 1954. That year Western blanked the Savages 27-0. Homecoming, over the years, has beentraditionally known for -upsets. Students, faculty and alums will be at the game in force to see ifWestern can fatten up that Homecoming win record and continue the upset tradition. Your CleaningBills Are Lett When Garments Hold Their Press DONT HESITATE Phone 48 C0RNWA1L CLEANERS1919 Cornwall Ave. By JOHN BETROZOFF The stage is set for the biggest game of the year EasternSavages in the annual Homecoming game, it will be a big game for a much improved squad. The Vikingsof Western have been just short of sensational in their last few games. No great victories, but for a teamthat wasn't even supposed to show, they have been superior. They have come from an early seasonbunch of green players to a present united fighting football team. They have shown their scoring punchwell in the last two games and have been wiping mistake after mistake off their performances. They havebeen fighting hard in every ball game. Defense, not offense, will be the main trouble for Westerntomorrow. Eastern is in the bite of the line for this game. They saw their title chance go down the drainlast week at Central where they were tied 6-6. And tomorrow a second place finish hangs in the balance.The game is a must for them and they know it. But it will not be the green bunch that went against apotent Lewis and Clark attack, or an inexperienced squad that took on a big Whitworth team and lost. Itwill be a fired-up squad that scared the pants off Humboldt; it will be a scoring squad that counted three touchdowns against a supposedly defensive-strong PLC team. This is a tough one but if the Vikings candeliver as good a performance tomorrow as they have the past two weeks, the victory is ours.ELIGIBILITY RULES CHANGING AGAIN A conference meeting this month may see the EvergreenConference tighten its rules even further. It concerns returning GI's. The rule now reads that any returningGI that was called into service is immediately eligible, providing he was passing 12 hours the lastcompleted quarter. The quarter in which he was drafted did not count. But now the conference isthinking about distinguishing between drafted and volunteering. It would go like this: A student not passing 12 hours who is drafted becomes eligible as soon as he gets out, providing he has passed 12 hoursthe quarter before he got drafted. But a student not passing 12 hours who quits and joins the servicewould not be eligible upon returning. We'll have to wait and see the results at the meeting this month.PRESS COULD BE BIG DRAWING FACTOR Not bragging up the Collegian or any other paperespecially, but I think the press has a great deal to do with the making or breaking the athleticsuccesses. Publicity is the number one thing for any athletic event. People have to know exactly who,what, when, where, and why something is happening. And they are interested in who in two ways. Theywant to know the teams involved and they want to know the individuals involved. Our policy here hasbeen to try this—our success could be argued I guess. My big point is that it is not only the duty of thestudent paper to inform, but it is especially important for the other mediums in the vicinity tocooperate—meaning the newspapers mainly. It is my personal opinion that the local city paper has failed miserably in informing the public on this college's activities. This may be true of other activities but that is not my case for now. I cite as an example a recent sports item that gave thirty-two inches of copy to alosing game while another article gave only four and one-half inches to Western's stout play in anotherstate. Another is that last week Western got only a brief column mention of their PLC game, no story onthe game itself. We have not had the best records in the world, these last couple of seasons, but theteams have played some darn good football. And if we are to build, help must come via the linotype andthe engraving room. Western doesn't want the whole "sportlight" but we sure would appreciate some of it.

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

T*J BY ANNE ROUND Y AND WAYNE EHLERS "It's the principle, not the man that counts." statedJohn Pinner, freshman, one of the 46 people interviewed by the Collegian on the forthcoming nationalelection. A small representation of Western students were asked who was their choice for President oftne United States. Also included in the poll was a question about their party and senatorial preferences.

With national elections just a-round the political corner, Mr. Buren wasasked to comment on his impression of American elections and upon his own country's elections."Our elections, in structure, are very similar to yours. We have much publicity, and much spirit andenthusiasm is generated by our people. The people want to vote. However, we have no TV as of yet.We will soon have it, however—educational TV. About 90 per cent of our people of legal age vote. Yes,we are very much like the Americans—even to mud slinging and name calling in our campaigning."Remarking further on government and what role students take in recognizing and supporting theirgovernment, Mr. Buren pointed out that Chinese students have no clubs such as the Young Republicansand the Young Democrats. "In my country we have many students who belong to a group called the"Young Salvation for the Nation/' Their primary purpose is to train to be anti-communist. They areencouraged by the government. Political factions play a secondary role in the club's ultimate objective."Mr. Buren, commenting on Western revealed that the individual help he received here "was veryencouraging." He plans to stay in this country one more year and then return to Formosa. cuftp„„4 CAlfi *Q * * * * * W A S H * * * * * COMfL£K 0Ne.STop Shopping Center FREE Store SidePARKING 1618 Cornwall - Bell high am Of the people interviewed, twenty-five were under the voting age. These students were wholeheartedly for Eisenhower and the Republican party, showing a vote of 18-6 for him. Eisenhower and Stevenson ran a tight race for the votes of the students over twenty-one, with Iketallying 11 to Adlai's 9. A Republican for Eisenhower stated his- views, "I have examined his (Ike's) record and I think he's done a good job of getting us into shape. He's made us feel more secure by his attitudetoward the armed services." It appears that the student vote hinges on the.decision of theindependent voter. At least one-third of the students interviewed intended to vote for the man instead of for a party and its principles. An independent, Don Opperman, plans to support Eisenhower, "I like his ideas. I think he's given our country the leadership we needed." Don, however, supports Warren G.Mag-nuson, Democratic candidate for Senator. Magnuson beat Arthur B. Langlie by a substantialmargin, according to student opinion, with 17 for Magnuson and 10 supporting Langlie. An ardentDemocrat expressed himself this way, "Mr. Langlie has filled his campaign with smears and innuen-dosagainst Magnuson to his own detriment." Laura Silven, freshman, stated, "I would vote for Eisenhowerbecause I like Nixon. I think he is really an intelligent man. I don't care who is President. We need the intelligence and new ideas of a man like Richard Nixon." "Stevenson is too immature," according toFrank Forray, who would back Ike. "There is something about him (Adlai) that lacks sincerity-" BobGustavson disagrees. "Stevenson — naturally," he stated when asked who he considered the bestcandidate for President. He added, "First, I don't feel that Ike has treated the farmer properly.Secondly, I don't think his health is adequate to go through the time he would be in office." "I likeAdlai because I thought he did a good job as governor of Illinois and I think for that reason that hewould be a good president. Also the Republicans are for big business and the Democrats are for the little man," so spoke Nancy Parker, a Stevenson rooter. A Democrat against big business, Roland Jaye,mused, "General Motors sold more Chevs in the past three years than ever before. So what's good forG. M. must be good for the country."

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

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

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

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

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

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

WITH DAVE AMOS Since the rest of this paper isrevoltingly Democratic, this column may as well be revoltingly Republican. One of the big points in thenational election, is that people like Ike, but are wary of Mr. Nixon. Some Republicans feel this way, andquite a few people who don't vote either party ticket also feel this way . . . People rant and rave about how great Luther Carr of the TJW is, but what good is a great runner who fumbles away two touchdowns tothe opponents for every one he makes?

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

To Act or Not to Art' . Cries of "athletic paradise" and ^radicals -who oppose athletics" havenearly scattered themselves to infinity over the campus since the BOC's grant of $1,800 in studentmoney for athletic scholarships. -v It is not our purpose, at this point, to act as a judge of whether or notthe motion was a step in the right direction. Time usually issues much better decisions. But whatevermotives involved, feelings hurt, principles denied, or wrongs initiated, the Board of Control took one of its quickest, most decisive and far-sighted actions of the year. For once student government did not bogdown on an. issue because an insignificant clause did hot please several Board members. For oncethis year, the Board acted as though it was working with the confidence of the m a j o r i t y of thestudents by BOC Action Firm, Quick whom it was elected Yet there are those who believe such avital issue should have been turned over to the students for a vote. This would have taken eight weeks ormore under normal conditions and would have rendered any immediate action—vital to the very purposeof the proposal—impossible. ' I f the Board is to go to the voters for approval on all vital issues, where itis to draw the line? Certainly the student body budget is vital. Would the Board submit every division ofthe budget to the students? If so, it could hold mass meetings to approve each segment; athletes wouldcome to vote on the athletic division, journalists to vote on the publications division, musicians to vote onthe music department division, and all disinterested persons could sit back sipping the free coffeeprovided for each session. ' ' This would nearly eliminate any need for a Board of Control (except jof-course, to preserve the democratic right of every student to be allowed to vote) and representativegovernment could be forgotten^ \ The purpose of the Board is to act for the students, and if it acts in thewrong manner, it's up to the students to let it know. Meanwhile progress waits at the BOC's doorstep,- itis not particularly patient. There are times when every group delegated with authority and responsibilitymust act quickly and immediately. If the BOC doesn't feel it can act quickly with the confidence of thestudents, it is worthless. If it must come running to the students to approve its very intended vital action, it is purposeless, is impeding progress, and should be dismissed so we can all go happily back toAthenian democracy where the grass roots of Weltern will truly speak for themselves, V: Dear Editor:May I have a few lines to express a few opinions and ask a few pertinent questions? I am verydisturbed by the action of our board in setting up an athletic scholarship. I am even more disturbed bywhat appears to have been a surreptitious attempt to avoid any opposition from adverse student opinion.Is Mr. Moffett so sure that he has a mandate from the students that he doesn't have to bother withconsidering student body opinion? To date we haven't even been favored with an explanation as to whywe should give an athlete $150.00 to come and play games for us. Perhaps there is ho good answer. I've heard the platitudinous sport objectives: to build fine, healthy bodies, to teach sportsmanship andteamwork, the necessity of social experiences, etc. But none of these is the real objective, it it? None of these requires $150 athletes or a $10,000 football program. Isn't the real reason entertainment? forplayers and spectators? If the immediate reason for these scholarships is to win games, as Isuspect it is, then why bother to put 'these, $150 pieces of property through an afcademib; curricula? Ithas - lt;4ong been m^v opinion that.there is? no Relationship of any value between athletic ability andacademic ability. Apparently our own sport editor agrees with that. ;(I ad: 'h1§ remarks in theFebruary i7, 1956 -issue of the Collegian.) Or do we need these athletes as an integral part of thestudent body so we can derive some vicarious prestige from them when they win games? We are insad shape if we must entrust our college prestige to the sport pages. Sincerely, Ron Leistra By ALLAN MATHIESON I Time brings all things (if you don't forget to renew your subscription) and time, byspecial arrangement with the board of trustees has brought the robins, butterflies and keg parties into aposition on Western's horizon which is horrifyingly imminent. I Yes, unless the science department startsfiddling around, we may expect, any day now, the appearance of spring, the season ! when lunacybecomes more than just a part time hobby. Any day now, the BOC will lapse into lethargiclistlessness, rousing themselves only occasionally to snarl at each other before feeding time.' Beachparties, tennis and virility will be on many lips, ukuleles will be restrung, and the old favorites will be sung in close harmony. Close harmony—that means when ever-body is singing the same words. Already,signs of vernal activity have appeared on and off (mostly off) campus; the ladies, are beginning to payless attention to wearing clothes for warmth and are beginning the annual assault upon theboundaries of decency with the usual eye for the provocation of the usual male urges, using the sameold bait. We predict, however, that due to the lateness of the arrival of the baiting season there will befewer fish caught, and caution the ladies about exposure during the recent inclement weather, as arecent check with the nurse's office revealed an unusual number of spring colds. We repeat, girls, don'trisk your health in a premature foray, you'll have plenty of time between now and June to get your oarsin. Spring, the time of the T-shirt, the season of sighs, the destroyer of grade-points, and single,married type happiness is upon us. The grass is greening, the girls are preening, and all is idleness or folly, or, more probably, both. Has anybody seen my tennis racket, my ermine swim suit or my gal?(Answers to the name of Gretchen, a sharp command from a male voice or the gentle jingling of loosechange). * ^tM% Me Student (fatten . tltliletically ^beahins By LEO MARTY (This article is printed inresponse to an offer of equal space to a view opposing that of Mr. Dunlap, printed last week.) This is adirect article not meant to be sarcastic or vicious, but informative. Do many people on campus really know what it takes to have good athletic teams? Some people on campus feel that we are competing in thewrong way. Do you feel that competition "is big time? That is the basic principal upon which ourdemocracy is built, competition. '. Every college in America offers scholarships in almost all fields.Athletics, like music, science, |-IT IS WITH REAL REGRET that the Collegian loses Tom Manney thisfquarter. Manney, however, does not leave without leaving his dmark on present and future Collegians. Hisorganization this year turned the Collegian into a workable, flexible organization. In editorial policy andmagnitude he contributed greatly. For one of the first times definite policies and plans of organization were set up that could be built upon without beginning from the bottom each time a staff changed. We shallmiss his direction, but his past work serves us well. and art, needs to attract in college good personnelin order to produce good teams. Did you ever wonder why this college of education has athletics? It is to give our future Physical Education teachers and future coaches experience. Let's look at the MusicDepartment for example, which is one of the best in the Northwest. The members of the Band, Choir,and Orchestra have a chance to participate and gain that valuable thing called experience. The samething applies to* athletics. • it- i, Athletics is more than just a bunch of big husky guys who can doany physical activity. They are men who have a sincere desire, like everyone else in Education, to teachand inspire in a proficient manner. These men, big and small, from golfer to football player, have a skilland talent that is in demand. The scientist needs a laboratory, an artist needs an easel and brush, amusician needs an instrument, and an athlete needs a team. Western pays the Editor of the Klipsuh$240 a year. If this were considered a profession on campus then no student would be hired. The BOCrecently passed some scholarships that'will allow $150 a year for an athlete; to help him through school. This too, is an extra- curricular activity. We do not consider the KHpsun Editor a professional, thenwhy should some people on campus say that the athletes are going to be professionals? No. this isnot an effort to make Western into "big league" stuff. The Eyergreen Conference will never allow anyprofessionalism to occur. None of our coaches, either, would allow such a thing to happen. As I havepointed out the Athletic Department has just as great a need for talented people as other collegedepartments. * "v Welcome, new students, to the Associated Student Body and 'WWC. As you paidyour fees on registration day you all became members of the ASB. $10.50 of your fees goes to the ASBand is spent on such things as athletics, band, drama and social activities. Within two weeks the Boardof Control, the legislative body of the ASB, will receive the proposed budget for next year. Since Westernis growing in population, the budget of the Associated Students is likewise growing and is importantwork. Each year at this time the Finance Committe requests proposed budgets from the various ASBdepartments and formulates the total budget for submission to the BOC. Usually the departments request more money than is expected in income, so the Board must cut from the requested budgetssuch items as are not completely justified or needed. Two years ago the Board of Control had to cut almost $10,000 from the requested budgets. And in past years the final approval of the budget wasnot completed until summer quarter. This year, thanks to the co-operation of the Finance Committeeand the department heads, we are getting started on the budget early and should complete its workearly in May. Other than the $10.50 of your fees which goes to ASB, 50 cents per quarter goes to ourStudent Facilities found, $2 goes to the Klipsun fund, and $1.50 goes to the Student Union fund. Nextyear $4.50 per student per quarter will go to the Student Union fund. As you can see, the AssociatedStudents is becoming a big business responsible for many thousand dollars.

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

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

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

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

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

According to "Miss Oldow, WUS works without prejudice to race or creed toencourage and support all efforts on the part of students, professors, and others, to meet the basicneeds of the universities throughout the world. The world-wide program is administered by a staff inGeneva, Switzerland, and works closely with agencies of the UN. For approximately 16 years, WUShas annually conducted fund-raising campaigns on more than seven hundred American campuses tosupport its program. . W h a t " has this organization achieved in the past? In the 1953 drive, some ofits achievements included sending $15,000 to Korea for the purchase and renovation of a building tobe ustfti to house 100 students when completed; and sending $10,0#-worth of food and more than$5,000 worth of scholarship aid to Korean students. SELF-HELP PRINCIPLE The entire WUS programstresses the principle of giving help to self-help. An example of this is: students at a university in Asiamay wish to start a student health service. They will use a WUS grant to obtain a building or room foruse as a clinic and to purchase medical equipment and supplies. The health service, when operating,will charge its student patients a small fee-enough to maintain its operations, or even to expand.Shoreline Teachers Visit WWC Campus Twenty-four teachers and administrators from the Shorelineschool district in Seattle visited the WWC campus on Tuesday, December 7. Included in the group weretwo supervisors, five principals and vice principals, and 13 classroom teachers. Miss Adah Minor,elementary supervisor of the Shoreline school district, was in charge of the group.

Colleges of Education May Charge Tuition "It would appear that there is no specific constitutional provision forbidding a statutory enactment to allow a reasonable tuition to be charged at the colleges of education," said Attorney General Don East-void ofthe recent proposal by the state legislative budget committee. The committee has been studying thepossibility of requiring tuition at the three Washington colleges of education, Western, Central, andEastern. + At present, the state colleges do not charge tuition; tuition being de- Dr. Ross Tells OfShortage Of Teachers A nation-wide shortage of qualified college faculty members is beingpredicted for 1960, according to Dr. J. Alan Ross, professor of education and psychology at Western.Dr. Ross recently returned from a Salt Lake City meeting of the Northwest Association of SecondarySchools, where he said the impending college teacher shortage was one of the main topics ofdiscussion. "The tremendous wave of World War II babies will soon reach college age," Dr. Ross pointed out. Colleges are already taking about 30 per cent of the high school graduates in this country, hesaid. Based on that figure, college enrollments will increase from 2% to 3 million during the next 5 years. The figure could Jump to 40 per cent, further complicating the problem, according to Dr. Ross. "Wemust find means to attract j fined by Dr. W. W. Haggard of Western, as instructional fees. The $36 perquarter now being charged is for such things as student and health activities rather than instructionalfees. "We are not asking for permission to charge tuition," said Dr. Haggard, after Eastvold's statementwas made public. Asked if he thought a tuition charge would cut down enrollment at the state collegesof education, Dr. Haggard replied: "That is one of the things we are seriously thinking about in thisproposal by the budget committee. We fear it will." The present fees at Western now total $108 per yearas compared to $165 per year, which is the basic tuition charge at the University of Washington.Registrar to Mail Grades to Students "GTades will be mailed to students about December 23," saidRegistrar Don Ferris. They will be mailed to the address given by the student at the time ofregistration. Any address changes should be reported to the registrar's office before the end of thequarter.

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

The Board moved and adopted the report submitted by the delegates. NEW STATIONERY Samples of various formats for the new ASB stationery from Mr. Zawacki's Art class were submitted for consideration by the Board.Three of the best samples were selected for further consideration. To get more people interested in the "Writer," Western's creative writing magazine, and to stimulate them to enter the writing contests, theBOC approved a request for funds ($85) for the "Writer" to be used for prize money. WESVETSREPORT A representative from the Wes-vets club reported that, only" $48 of the $85 granted was spentfor the "mixer" last Saturday night and the remainder was turned into the business office. The band cost$42, decorations $1, and the bus $5. Requested Budget Reduced by Board of Control for Balance Togive you,, the student body, a better conception of what happens to the $10.50 (approximately one-third of your registration fee) that you pay into the ASB each quarter, the Finance Committee is presenting thisreport on the ASB budget. All Associated Student Body income for the year goes into a general controlaccount called budget control. This income, estimated to be approximately $50,000 ig divided betweenthe respective departments as approved by the Board of Control in the budget. Any additional monies inbudget control over that delegated or earmarked by the Budget remain in the Control account and may beapportioned by the Board of Control for additional expenditures not specified in the budget. Requests forsame must be submitted to and approved by the Board of Control. It is necessary at'all times that somemoney be available in budget control for unanticipated emergencies. This is allowed for in part byplanning a corir»ervative budget; a conservative estimate of income is made and expenditures areplanned accordingly. During the first part of spring quarter last year, various departments submitted to the Finance and Properties committee a requested budget for the next year. These estimated expenditureswere then presented to the Board of Control by the committee along with data of estimated income forthe following year. The Board of Control found it necessary to cut some $4500 from the requested funds in order to balance the budgets with estimated income.

Large Turnout Hears Manton, Orchestra, onSame Program WWC students and Bellingham townspeople took advantage of two opportunities to hearthe outstanding tenor, Raymond Manton, on Tuesday, December 7, in the college auditorium. Mantonwas enthusiastically received by an audience that nearly filled the auditorium to hear his recital at 10 a.m. During this performance, Manton spoke directly to his audience only once. All other time in theperformance was reserved*— for singing. The tremendously pow- Fantasy," by Churchill-Herfurth. erfulvoice of the artist made the use of a microphone completely unnecessary. ENGLISH NUMBERSPOPULAR The numbers sung in the English language seemed to draw more response from thelisteners than did the Italian, German and French selections. Particularly well received by theaudience were such selections as "He's Got the Whole World in His Hands," by Kerby-Forrest, andthe Rachmaninoff-number, "Oh, Cease Thy Singing, Maiden Fair." Arthur Thai violinist, accompanied thetenor in the latter number. During the morning program, Manton was accompanied by Donald Jones at the piano. ONLY ONE ENCORE Since the vocalist was alloted only one hour for the performance, time permitted only one encore'; a well-known aria from the German composer Flotow's opera, "Martha."Manton's performance with the Bellingham Civic Orchestra at 8:15 drew a much smaller number ofWestern students, with the audience being composed mainly of Bellingham citizenry. Western canjustly be proud of the 45 students who appeared among the 80 members of the Civic orchestra, under,the direction of Dr. Frank D'Andrea. WELL RECEIVED NUMBERS Especially well received among theorchestral numbers of the evening were "Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring," by Bach-Roberts; "Introduction toAct 3," from Wagner's opera "Lohengrin," and the "Snow White The audience was so enthusiasticafter the last number that Dr. D'Andrea used it as an encore. Franklin Nielsen, junior, very ablyconducted the orchestra for the "Rosamunde Overture" by Schubert. Manton's evening performanceseemed quite stiff in comparison with the morning presentation. Not enough practice with the orchestramay have accounted for this. For both performances, Manton's numbers were well selected to interestthe listeners. 'Western Reports', Alumni Bulletin, Completed Shortly The winter copy of WesternReports, a periodical for WWC alumni, will be completed and in the mail by Christmas, according toM. A. Allan, co-ordinator of the booklet. At present, the periodical is in the last stages of printing.Approximately 8,000 alumni will receive the fall quarter booklet. The cover will feature a picture of theaddition to Edens hall. The news covered in Western Reports includes items of interest concerning the coming quarter, news of alumni, news of the past quarter, and the like. Working with Mr. Allan on theperiodical have been James H. Bliss, publications adviser, and Miss Leslie Hunt, English department.Two Positions To Be Open at Edens Applications for two positions in the Edens hall cafeteria will beconsidered this week, announced' Miss Luva Baldwin, dietician. The hours open are from 8:00 to10:00 each morning. The work will be sandwich making and helping with salads. The deadline for theapplications is Monday, December 13. Regular college wages will be paid. Miss Baldv/in asks thatstudents filing applications should bring their winter quarter schedules with them. 16 Students TourShipyard Company, Sixteen students from Western Washington college this week toured theBellingham Shipyard Company in the last of several student visits to local industries this quarter.

One factthat is guaranteed is that all news, views, and comments that are expressed will be written with you inmind and any opinions submitted to the staff will be thoroughly read and carefully consid-^ ered. Notlong ago a story appeared on the front page of the "Boston Globe" written by the well-known JeromeSullivan. The article read in part: "The football fan of the future is quite likely to be hearing something like this over the public address system during a game: 'Tackle made by center adjuster Eddie Malinko-vichof McConnellville high; or this: 'Pass interception by the full flexor, Bobby Warner of South Prep'."ANNOUNCER CRAZY? This is football? Dig the crazy announcer. He's real gone, you say. Either that,or I'm just not hep. What's with this "center adjuster" business and this "flexor guy"? Maybe you arewondering what a story printed in a newspaper over 3,000 miles away has to do with WWC. Well, it's ashort, short story revolving around one man, Western's 'athletic director and head, football coach, Mr.Charles Lappenbusch. Practically everyone on campus knows or has heard of Lappy's straight-linephilosophy, but do you know that Coach Lappenbusch's system is being used by many of the "bigname" colleges and also hundreds of "top notch" high schools throughout the country. Here are twoexcerpts from letters received by Coach Lappenbusch: 1. "I'm interested in your book on 'StraightLine Principle' particularly so, since I teach football coaches here at the university." 2. "In the eventour college approves the book, there is the possibility that we might adopt the book as a^text for ourcourse in football." The letter was from Spur-geon Cherry, University of Florida. SNAVELY COMMENTS"I am still far from being an expert on the straight line defense, but I can appreciate something goodwhen I see it." This statement was made by head football coach, Carl G. Snavely, of the University ofNorth Carolina. The list grows and grows as well-known coaches such as Frank Leahy, formerly of Notre Dame, Jim Phelan of the New York Yanks, Henry Frank of Tulane University, Lloyd P. Jordan ofHarvard, and Ara Parseqhian of Miami university send congratulatory comments on Lappy'sphilosophy. Practically every day. Mr. Lappenbusch receives a letter from another coach interested inhis system or seeking information on his book.

In fact, there were bets laid that there wasn't even a WesternWashington College. Western Drops Game to CPS Western lost a close 70-63 non-conference game to the College of Puget Sound in a wide open game at the Western gym last Monday night. Neither teamwas decidedly, in front until the last five minutes when CPS went ahead to stay on a. one-handed pushshot by Bill Medin, with 2:40 minutes to go. Medin was the night's high score with 24 points. The scorewas tied eighteen times and the lead changed twenty-three times. Both teams were hot on the freethrows with Western making 33 out of 46 attempted, while CPS made 32 out of 44 shots attempted.Radliff, Stone, and Jahr led the Western attack with fourteen, thirteen, and ten points, respectively.The score at half-time was 28 to 28.

One of the happiest moments of "Big Jim's" life came on January 8, 1954. That was the day he received his discharge from the service. Jim was quick to point out that itwasn't the army that disagreed with him but there are so many things which interest the Viking slot manmore than the monotonous life of a soldier. As a hint to the female populace at Western we mightmention that Jim is single and if you want to get on his good side try discussing hunting and fishing withhim.

SKIING SEASON IS UPON US—The Mount Baker playground, one of theNorthwest's outstanding ski areas, is literally at Western's back door. Pictured above is one of the runswhich offer skiers an outstanding opportunity to test their skill. Reporter Advises Beginners OnPurchasing Ski Equipment $ SAVE $ | 2 0 Discount WITH OUR CASH AND CARRY 206 E. MagnoliaPhone 265 By JANE MATTIELIGH With winter here and skiing season around the corner, manyWesterners will undoubtedly be taking off for the mountains. Some will be enrolled in ski classesbeing held at Mt. Baker. ADVICE FOR BEGINNERS For beginners, questions will arise as to buying an outfit. It is unwise for a novice to buy expensive equipment right away. After a few times on skis hemay dislike the sport and give it up. After a couple times, of use, equipment doesn't - resell very well. Itmay be best for a beginner to rent his outfit for the first few outings, or buy good but inexpensiveequipment. Here are a few suggestions for selecting an outfit: In order to obtain skis of the cor-' feetlength for safety in all snow conditions and all slopes, one should purchase skis whose tips just reach to the base of the fingers when the arms are outstretched above the head. In selecting a pair of skis oneshould consider the following points: study them to see whether or not they are warped by placing thebottom of one ski against that of the other. Press the skis together. Next, test the spring of the skisby bending the points toward the binding and back toward the gliding surface. Remember to use anequal amount of pressure on each ski. Both skis should have the same amount of flexibility. Select skis will steel edges. These edges run the full length of the bottom side of the ski. They give thenecessary grip on the snow and also protect the skis and add to their life. The end of the poles shouldnot Special on Application Photos 6 for $2.98 Proofs Shown Call 989 for Appt.

The soles should be absolutely rigid with a built-in piece ofsteel to prevent buckling in tight bindings. A deep-cut tongue is advisable. Ankle straps are notabsolutely necessary, but the lacing should reach down to the beginning of the toes so that the bootcan be laced tight around the toot. Regarding the right boot dressing, be sure not to use oil or grease,otherwise the leather will lose its waterproofing and become soft. Polish containing wax is best. It isimportant that the soles never be brought into contact with a hot stove or radiator and that the bootsnot be dried out too quickly if they are wet through. CLOTHING TYPES There are many styles of skiclothing and everyone has his own taste making it hard to recommend a certain" type. However, it isnecessary that the pants, wind jacket, sweaters, etc., keep you warm and allow plenty of freemovement. Ski clothing should not be too heavy, but wind and water repellant. A heavy woolenoverjacket is not recommended. When it gets wet it takes several hours to dry out. A good nylonwindbreaker is best, with a heavy ski sweater underneath^ Nylon drys quickly and is surprisinglywarm. To prevent your ears from freezing wear some kind of headgear with ear "flaps. Wool-linedgloves of water-repelling material are considered the most satisfactory. A skier should not wear morethan two pairs of ski socks.

According to Lt. McKenzie, "the Nautilus is the dream of the future." He described the submarineand explained that its capabilities are closely guarded naval secrets. Use was made of the blackboard during the talk to compare the conventional or present day submarine with the Nautilus. The talk was based upon reports released through the Navy Department^ on the development of the Nautilus. Lt.McKenzie mentioned that many technicalities have been kept secret for obvious reasons. Amongadvantages of the atomic submarine over the present day submarine are: 1. the atomic submarine willbe able to outrun almost any warship afloat; 2. it will travel farther without refueling; 3. it will be able tostay submerged indefinitely; 4. the only limitation on cruising will be the stamina of the men and theamount of food and oxygen carried. The crew, according to the lieutenant, has been training for threeyears. Commander Eugene Wilkinson, a graduate of San Diego State college, is captain.

Gotta have breakfast before I see my adviser aboutmy registration for next quarter. Have a ten o'clock appointment, but this'll be a snap, on account ofbecause I have this one all fig-gered out. OFFICE DIFFICULT TO FIND Professor Igor Bevr has his office in room 413. (That was a janitor's closet on the original 1899 plans.) Some people say there is no fourth floor, and that there is no room 413. Maybe that's why it's so hard to find. * Ah yes! This assembledmultitude ahead of me looks vaguely familiar. They are Professor Bevr's other counsellees, all with teno'clock appointments. Oh well, there's only twenty-three of them ahead of me. Let's see—say theyaverage ten minutes per "seance," that's ten times twenty-three is two hundred and thirty minutes,and that's—a—ah— lemme see, sixty minutes in an hour, uh—Hey Joe, wake me up when the linemoves, huh? At 3:27 p. m., I am finally ushered into the august presence of my omiscient adviser,Professor Bevr. "Ah, my boy, sit down, sit down!" Professor Bevr beamed. "Just a moment while I findyour file here." I take the only empty chair in the office, and carefully readjust the pile of books that holdup the corner where the leg is missing. Professor Bevr finally locates my file folder on the top of hisdesk, underneath a stack of life insurance and magazine solicitations addressed to "Dear Educator."WOMEN ONLY INTEREST "Let's see now, young man. According to the results of these entranceexams, you did well in a— well, let's see now, you were fair in —uh—ummmm, well, let's see howyou stand in the Kuder Preference test.

Birthdays Fall In December December, the month of Christmas carols andlast minute shopping, is important to history students and Americans for the anniversaries of manybirthdays and events. Three presidents' birthdays are in the twelfth month: Martin Van Buren, December5, 1782, was the eight President of the United States. Woodrow Wilson, December 28, 1856, becametwenty - eighth president. Andrew Johnson, December 29, 1808, took office as the seventeenthpresident. Johnson was the only president against whom impeachment was attempted. Othernoted Americans celebrated December birthdays: George B. Mc- Clellan, 1826, was a successful Uniongeneral in the Civil War. George A. Custer, 1839, became a calvary general. He was killed in themassacre of Little Big Horn—"Custer's last stand." Christopher (Kit) Carson, 1809, is remembered asthe American frontier scout. Victor at Manila Bay during the Spanish-American War was GeorgeDewey, born 1837. Partly responsible for today's modern transportation was Charles Goodyear,1800, inventer of vulcanized rubber. Six states were admitted to the Union in the month of December:Indiana, Mississippi, Illinois, Alabama, Texas, Iowa. Over 330 years ago our fore-fathers— thePilgrims—landed at Plymouth Rock, Massachusetts, in December, 1620. The most famousAmerican tea party took place in 1773. It was the colonists' Boston Tea Party. Orvill and WilburWright made the world's first flight in a power-driven airplane at K i t ty Hawk, North Carolina. The 1903flight lasted only 12 seconds but left a definite mark on civilization. Can Teachers Read, Write? Harper's Asks "Can our Teachers Read and Write?" was the title of an article appearing recently in Harper'smagazine. This severe criticism of today's teachers should vitally concern students at Western asfuture teachers. Professor in a large Midwestern university, James D. Koerner wonders how illiterate our teachers can be and still go on'teaching in our public schools. Recently he. conducted anextension course in American literature for 28 primary and secondary-school teachers in his state. At the beginning of the course, Koerner made use of a teaching device which he used effectively with hisregular freshman and sophomore students: each week he gave out a set of questions graduating indifficulty, allowing each person to pick his own level, and showing how much each got from the reading assignments. The results were appalling! Not only were there errors in spelling and punctuation, butextreme lack of the ability to communicate the simplest literary idea as well. At the conclusion of hisextremely critical article, Koerner stated that he felt his experience was not an isolated one, and that itIs duplicated many times each year around the country.

It's .very exciting here, with everyone coming in with all sorts of littlepackages. MRH By JIM HAMILTON A trimmed tree is the result of the work done by the men at thehouse Thursday evening. Donuts and coffee kept them going on the project. Sunday the MRHmusicians will come forth with selections of Christmas carols. The carolers will then warm theirstomachs with hot chili following the singing session. Plans were made for the house Christmas partyright after the MRH banquet. President Dick Wal-ston presided at the Wednesday night meeting.Musketeer Hall By SHORTIE This has been quite a week here" at the hall. We have had every kind ofnews or happening that could happen to a place this small. First on the list of happenings was the visitof midnight guests on the Thursday past. In fact these guests were a little past midnight and were nottoo well received by the High muckie Muck of the hall. In fact* the Muck was forced to chase one of thecallers out of the premises with force. The week-end brought the twenty-second birthday to our oldestmember. The party held to celebrate this occasion was an event that will never be forgotten by thosewho attended. It was needless to say the highlight of the social season at the hall. The exact number of the guests who attended was never quite ascertained by the management. The question was actually unimportant as everyone who was there agreed that it was the most unique, most dancing, most lasting, most eating, most drinking, most interesting, in fact the party was the most. The array of presentsReceived by the honored guest ranged from two dozen of the most beautiful red roses that you ever sawto a purple cow. All in all it was a party of parties.

By HELEN NOBLES Sunday morning at 4 will come with a bang when the freshmen girls at Edens hall will beat on pans, yell and scream, and -forcefully pull the sophomores, juniors andseniors out of bed. The reason—the annual Christmas caroling led by Gee Gee Grabner. When thefrozen and sleepy girls finally arrive back at the dorm from caroling they will be served a breakfast by thefreshmen girls. A Christmas tree to be decorated by the girls will soon appear in the foyer at the dorm and small trees will adorn some of the rooms. Many of the girls have exchanged names, and hints arebeing dropped about what each of them wants. The season's fun is also going on in the Blue roomwhere caroling has been taking many of the girls away from their books. With the tune of "WhiteChristmas" on everyone's lips we dash past each other in the corridors hoping that this last week willhurry by so that we can say "Merry Christmas and see you next year." Harborview Hall By PATTYGRIFFITH Here's a comment overheard when a honey from the hall was describing a recent campusparty: "Gee, there were almost more faculty there than people."

We even have our presentswrapped . . . oh, to be that prepared for finals! . . . Anyway, we'll see you all. The Ranch Things at the Ranch are at a pleasant standstill with the coming of finals. The boys are concentrating on their astudies with an intestinal fortitude that is new to the old bunkhouse. We are looking forward withanticipation and glee to the visit of the Senior hall carolers on the Sunday morning next.

Starting tomorrow evening the house will take on the festive look for the annual Christmas buffet dinner followed by a dance in the house for all the-girls, their guests, and dates. We hope thateveryone will enjoy this event into which we have put a great deal of work . The finale to the week-endbegins Sunday morning at 4:30, when twenty- three bright, shining faces appear on the streets and inthe back alleys to do their caroling, an occasion for which we have been practicing since our return fromthe last vacation. If we come to your house, we will appreciate a candle in the window. Thank you!Finals are just around the corner and all next week the lights of Senior hall will be burning after 10:45,as we all take advantage of the ruling for late study hours that week. Put the coffee and cake on, Mrs.A. Alki Lodge By WALLY COOPER When intellectuals have then-good times, it's just like a holiday at ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1954 December 10 - Page 8 ---------- Mailbag: Letters to the Editor Dear Editor: The writing of this letter has been prompted by the review ofthe college production "Boy Meets Girl." It is not our intention to be unkind, unjust or to misrepresentthe facts. Frankly, we are somewhat amazed by Margaret McMullin's article concerning the collegeplay in the December 3rd issue of the Collegian. We could take issue with Miss McMullin on severalpoints in her review, but we shall confine our remarks, for the present, to her review of the cast. In thefirst place, one very important, essential and necessary character was completely ignored in herreview. The strong "character role" of Larry Toms, ably played by Lee Porterfield. Joyce Brose, whoadded greatly to the production as the delightful Miss Crews, was likewise overlooked. . No mention was made of Donna Godfrey, Doug Smith, Bill Schmidt, Jim Kreiss, Ted Hagen or Bob Duvall, all of whomwere most vital to the production as a whole. We feel that Dr. Gerald Kahan deserves more than just acasual mention as "The entire production was directed by . . ." Further, it is felt that Mr. Flanders isentitled to more than the brief remark made concerning his efforts. On the whole, we think it can besafely said that the review of the play was far more disappointing than the small, but enthusiastic groupof college people who supported the play in its two night run. We shall not take issue on other points,such as the age of the production. We could, on this point, however, ask Miss McMullin if she wasaware of the approximate age of Hamlet. Not that "Boy Meets Girl" professes to rank with Shakespeare,but it is food for thought. "In this writers opinion" it seems that "Boy Meets Girl" is simply a "verymediocre play." "This writer fails to. understand how this production ran 235 performances onBroadway." One reason for this failure is obvious in her review of the play, in which a leading role andseven supporting roles were either not observed, not considered, or perhaps, not understood! Whencovering a production for TRY OUR DRIVE-IN CASH AND CARRY MILK PUN Save 14c a GallonPACKAGE ICE CREAM At Our Drive-In Hillvi iew Dairy 1824 Cornwall Avenue We Serve Lunches andRefreshments the press it would seem customary, upon completion of the performance to travelbackstage and obtain information first hand. The Collegian's reporter apparently did not think thisnecessary. A great amount of "review" was obtained from the printed program, available all over thecampus. This is apparent in the facts that: 1. The names of the technical crew were in the same orderas the program listed them. 2. Two members of the company had been changed after the program wasprinted, but their names appeared in Miss McMullin's article, even though one of them happened to be in the army at the time! It is not the intention of the undersigned to try to change any thoughts about "BoyMeets Girl." We would simply like to clarify a few points, and establish some justification for a reporter covering a theatrical production in the manner that Miss McMullin covered "Boy Meets Girl." We couldestablish none. There are two sides to every story, even concerning Hollywood! Respectfully yoursJOHN A. SCHERMERHORN KAYE JENNINGS PLINY L. ALLEN EVALYN BICKERS KERMIT B.JOHNSON Dear Editor: Whether the subject has been covered or not is not important. The factremains that the mixer following the Seattle "U" basketball game was one of the most successful held this year. The credit for this dance should be attributed to the Wesvets for the actual work and stagingof the dance. Also credit should be given to the Pep committee for conceiving the idea. The actual manbehind the scenes on both committees and the Wesvets club was Lenko Gazija. He, along with RolandSaylor, are perhaps the men hehind the scenes in a lot of Western events. The unique decorations ofthis dance are also worth mention. The effect brought forth by the use of fish nets was acclaimed bymany to be the best ever attained at a mixer held in the Rec hall. The Wesvets club, one of thenewest on Campus, should feel proud to have sponsored such a successful function as this dance. Itshould also be an incentive to other organizations to have the attendance that this function had. Theattendance of the fans from Seattle "U" was also the best that this college has seen in quite a fewyears. This was indeed a very nice response to the letter sent them by the Pep committee inviting themup to the game and dance. Congratulations Wesvets on a job well done. BRAD KENYON, Vice-Chairman, Pep Committee — o The mixer Saturday night was the first mixer ever to be held on aSaturday at WWC. The turnout was great and the success might mean more of the same.COMPLETE TRAVEL SERVICE AIR - BUS - STEAMSHIP - RAIL - TOURS NO SERVICE CHARGE *Williams Travel Agency Hotel Leopold Building Tel 7310 Lutheran Students Will Have Dinner Christmaswith all the traditional trimmings will be celebrated at the Lutheran Student association Christmasdinner party next Tuesday, December 14, at Faith Lutheran church.

Charles Granger, student teacher, is beginning to think kids don't have anyknowledge of time. Not long ago one of his sixth grade students asked the following question: Mr.Granger, do you remember when you were little and wore button shoes? •• In the past we havetalked of productions that were about to take place on the stages of Bellingham. This week I would like topresent another facet of legitimate theater- life. No matter how good or how bad an actor or actress is,the most hated, and most feared foe in the first night critic. He or she comes to the show with apessimistic mind or at least a "show me" attitude. He knows that* in his hands he holds the life or death of a particular show. This cannot help but give him a sense of power. Do not misunderstand me; I do not mean that a critic goes out of his way to be cynical but that he is just harder to please than the run-of-the-mill audience. Critics are usually fair even if they are not liberal with approbation. CRITIC'S POWERLIMITED Fortunately or unfortunately on Western's campus a critic's power is limited to holding up amirror to a cast after the production has taken place, or at worst making the cast angry before the night's production. The play will run its entire time no matter what a critic will or will not say. The problems confronting a collegiate critic are many. In the first place, thinking of Western's campus inparticular, where will the paper find a competent critic who will be an adequate mirror of studentopinion? In most cases such a member of the staff will be in some way connected with the productionand thereby have a bias which takes him out of the realm of reviewers. If the paper must use a lesser

Instead of saying the customary "thirty," the journalistic term for ending or finish,this half-size edition of the C o l l e g i a n is planned to say only "fifteen." In other words, we're trying to say our work is only half done, and we'll be back fall quarter. Till then—"FIFTEEN!" COLLEGIAN Vol.XXVIII, No. 32 June 7, 1956 The climax of the graduating seniors' traditional Class Day came Tuesdaywith the placing of name cards in the receptacle in Memory Walk by Dave Northrup, class president,and Bob Doyle, vice-president. Graduates and faculty appeared in caps and gowns in front of Old Main,where Chuck Dennis read "An Old Man's Thoughts of School," and the whole group sang "Auld LangSyne." Gay young blades of grass were jubilantly trampled in one of the rare times of the year whenpeople were expected to walk on the grass. Highlight of the Class Day assembly, where the year'sawards are announced, was the presentation of the Freshman Cup for scholarship to Karen Roberts.Miss Roberts, who has maintained a 4.0 grade point for the year was presented the cup by last year'swinner, Evelyn James. The grade point of 4.0 has seldom been equaled in 25 years of the cup'spresentation. —Cut Courtesy Bellingham Herald Homecoming Plans, Appointments Revealed Plans fora gala, exciting Homecoming for 1956 are beginning to take shape, according to Homecomingchairmen, Sharon Andreasen and Don Six.

Thanks €H Luck, Says President. . .May I take this opportunity to thank all the associated students for giving me the opportunity to serve asyour president the past year. I feel that I have gained through this experience considerably more than Ihave contributed. Speaking for the associated students, let me thank the administration, membersof the faculty, and students who have contributed their time and effort to student government andactivities. If this has been a successful year, it has been through the cooperation and work of thesepeople. Best wishes to next year's ASWWC under the leadership of Ken Moffett, for an eventful andsuccessful year. Sincerely, Roland Sayler President, ASWWC ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1956 June 7 - Page 2 ---------- i^i— 'gtudent Bodies ol ike "futuie Will be Thankful . . . t *~--~—-. This "miniature" issue is designed toclose the pages on another chapter in the story of Western, but it's not so easy to close the pages on alot of not-so-miniature work that's been done in that year. At Class Day ceremonies Tuesday Dr.Haggard said that the graduating class of 1956 ". . . has provided outstanding leadership in studentgovernment . . . student bodies in the future will be thankful to this class." The person three or four yearsfrom now sipping a coke in the new Student Union, or the one entering Western on an athleticscholarship probably won't even be conscious of the fact that there was a class of '56. But if he ever does stop to think about such things he may realize that it was leaders of this class who had enough energyto carry the idea of a Student Union over a wall that had blocked progress for years. Planning thebuilding to such a stage that students wouldn't object to raising their student fees to pay for itscompletion wasn't an easy job, but it was done—under the leadership of seniors like Dave Northrup andRoland Sayler WORKING ON A DREAM . . .

It will also be recorded in Westernhistory that 1956 was the year the student body took a radically new step in appropriating athleticscholarships out of its own money. Scholarships had rough weather for a while, plowing their way througha storm of protest and confusion. But they were given a chance—whether they deserved it will be aquestion of the future. Both these issues pointed up another highlight of student government. The studenthimself was called on for his opinion more than ever, and though the student center became the boilingpot for a lot of heated arguments—and sometimes just plain hot air-enthusiasm for student governmenthad a rebirth. Though the athletic headlines didn't always materialize, as football bogged down in the mudof "Battersea"—as UBC's newspaper constantly referred to the soggy piece of turf, floating on its ownin the center of Bellingham-some notable achievements came out of the track department, and otherminor sports. Whether athletic scholarships is the cure for the major Western athletic malady will be aninteresting case to observe. A year isn't easily wrapped up. Even though many classes have placed theirblocks of marble in memory walk, there are still a great many to go. The work of the class of '56 will bebehind the memories contained in many of the stones yet to be placed. The Collegian itself would like toextend its thanks to two columnists who will be graduating. "Scrib," as everyone calls her and BobDunlap, though they brought "internecine warfare" to the pages of the Collegian, provided top-interestmaterial. We have received many comments on their writing.

The winners will receive their cash awards along with the spring-quarter awardsat the end of this quarT ter. Following tradition the manuscripts from the winter quarter Writer weresent to the creative writing department of another college; in this case it was the University ofWashington. There the essays were judged by Dr. Porter and G. Perrin, author of "Writers Guide andIndex" and past president of the Association of English Teachers; the poems by Dr. LawrenceGillman, author of numerous books on poetry and its creation; and the short stories by Markham Harris,novelist and author of "High Morning Fog." Second . place awards were not presented in the essay andpoetry divisions. Speaking for himself, as well as the other judges H a r r is wrote they felt they shouldrefrain from designating seconds on the occasion . . . not because the quality of the pieces does notwarrant a second prize. It is rather that we'd feel obligated to award double or even triple second places,which hardly seems sensible." On Monday, April 30, at 4 p. m., the campus judges will pick thesuccessful aspirants for the $85 offered by the spring Writer. Qualifications for the short story, essayand poetry awards will be selection for publication in the spring edition.

There will also be a performance given at 8:15p. m. The College Chamber Orchestra, Frank D'Andrea, director, will accompany the Bagarottis.Bagarotti, called "the best interpreter of Mozart," will present several concertos by that notedcomposer. The morning performance will consist of the Concerto in D Major, No. 4, for violin andorchestra, and a Concerto in A Major. The eveni n g performance will consist of three more selectionsfrom Mozart. Bagarotti was introduced to American audiences at the Stadium Concerts in July 1949,.under the baton of Pierre Monteux. During the season of 1950 he appeared in Town Hall in a programcomposed of three Haydn Concertos with Chamber Orchestra. During the season of 1951-52 hepresented for the first time in this country all of the Mozart violin concertos with orchestra. Bagarottipreviously presented the same program in Lausanne, Switzerland, Paris, France, and' Madrid, Spain."Mr. Bagarottifs interpretations have warmth, gusto and prevailing virtuosity—his playing is full-blooded and exciting," remarked Olin Downes of the New York Times. "His playing has the authentic ring," said Robert Bagar of the New York World Telegram and Sun.

One can only wonder that so few students were interested enough to attend it.Why can't we have a larger audience at events such as this? Certainly it is not flattering to an artist toplay to a nearly empty auditorium, and student apathy does not give visitors a favorable impression ofour school. Evidently Western's students do not appreciate the opportunities offered them by our A L Series, which is a lamentable state of affairs. Molly Raymond Pianist Displays inner Fire, SpiritualDepth' By MOLLY RAYMOND An inner fire and depth of emotionality, rare in an era of plentiful virtuosos, was conveyed to her audience by pianist Adele Marcus, who appeared in concert in the WWCEAuditorium April 24. Three major works were played by Miss Marcus: the Brahms Sonata in F minor,Op. 5, one of the most demanding compositions in the pianistic repertoire; a Chopin Noctune in C-sharpminor; and the Liszt Hungarian Rhapsody WESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAN PRESS Entered as second class matter at the post office at Bellingham, by virtue of the act of March 8, 1879.

Bliss No. 12.From the beginning, Miss Marcus showed herself to be an artist of the first rank, in the way she handledthe powerful chords at the opening of the Allergo maestoso of the Brahms, and in her sensitive, poeticplaying of the lyrical passages of the movement. But it was in the Andante movement of the Brahmsthat she truly displayed her poetic capabilities and her profound understanding of this was playedperfectly legato, but cleanly. Though serisative phrasing and delicate, graceful playing she brought outthe subtle poignancy work. The singing, sustained melody of this movement. The Scherzo is a lively,dance-able movement, full of wry humor and irony, and Miss Marcus captured the spirit of itcompletely. She emphasized the questioning, contemplative quality of the following Intermezzo withits dark descending thirds, and she was in top form in the Finale, a tremendous movement similar inspirit to the first, with a strong, reiterated rhythmic motive and sharp dynamic contrasts. Technically thismovement is extremely taxing, but Miss Marcus played it with ease, concentrating on its musicalqualities and communicating to her audience its spirit of restless energy and excitement. A composerwhose works are difficult to play without being either hard-boiled or strictly sentimental, Chopin is often misinterpreted. Miss Marcus succeeded in achieving just the right balance between the two extremes in the quiet, rather melancholy Nocturne. The Hungarian Rhapsody was a strategic closing number,since it appeals strongly to the average audience, but this listener couldn't help wishing that MissMarcus had chosen something with a little more musical content. There is always a superabundanceof pianists who can play Liszt well and impress an audience with their gymnastic ability, but pianists ofMiss Marcus' musical stature are far less, numerous, and it would have been preferable to hearsomething musically more substantial for her final number. Miss Marcus is an artist of extraordinary spiritual depth and maturity. It has been said she "plays like a man," a somewhat dubiouscompliment to a woman artist; but it is true that she possesses the physical stamina and masterlytechnique that are most frequently associated with masculine pianists. Her phenominal pianistictechnique is, however, only a small part of her overall technique. It is simply a means, serving the end ofher artistry.

Allan of the Appointment Bureau. Of the. 400 people who have registered with the bureau this year, 100 have accepted contracts todate. That figure includes experienced and unexperienced teachers. Social science and physicaleducation teachers in the secondary schools have had some trouble in obtaining: jobs up to this time,but, "The situation now looks brighter," said Allan. Most of the teachers in the intermediate gradeshave had offers, but some have not yet signed contracts. Primary .. teachers are especially scarce.Allen attributes this scarcity to "Cupid and the stork." The only primary teachers who have not beenplaced are those who registered late or are especially particular about the locality in which they teach.According: to Allan, "Location is not really too important during the first year for the teacher. Choosing agood teaching situation is more important." Although there will be some teachers who will not be ableto teach in the localities of their choice, it is Allan's belief that all registrants will be placed. "When ateacher signs a contract, he is legally and morally bound to teach in that district for the school year.He is through with the Appointment Bureau for that year unless he obtains a written release from theschool district," stated Allan.

Concern has beenexpressed over the lack of interest displayed by the student body concerning national and internationalaffairs. Provincialism, they calls it. Sure, it's true, and it goes even further than that; most students"aren't even interested in their own affairs. True or not, the prevailing apathy is blamed on theadministration and faculty of the college. Students feel that they lack freedom. They feel that they arebeing "taken care of" and not allowed to flap their own wings. Therefore they maintain a do-nothingpolicy which slops over into their scholastic life where they sit patiently but apathetically waiting to befed.

My kids,however, have tired of waiting for me and are playing a "highway game." Their materials are a toy truckand a big pile of dirt, the road. With the students huddled around the dirt and the wind blowing wildly, the result is disastrous. At this point, the bell luckily wins, and my little minstrels return to the classroom.Pupils are helpful, however. One day I made an asbestos puppet that resembled some animal. It lookedlike a ubangilipped coyote to me, but my helpful students unanimously voted it a red fox. Studentteaching is really serious- Electronic 'Brain' Expert to Speak On Computers A national authority onelectronic "brains," Dr. D. H. Lehmer, will speak at Western next Friday, (May 4), on the topic,"Conversations With a Computer." Dr. Lehmer, now chairman of the Mathematics Department at theUniversity of California, has served at mathematician at the Aberdeen Proving Grounds, 1945-46, and asdirector of the National Bureau of Standards. He is on a lecture tour of colleges and universities in theNorthwest, sponsored by the Mathematical Association of America and the National ScienceFoundation. Last year Dr. G. Polya spoke here under the same arrangement. Offered at 2 p. m. in theCampus School Auditorium, the talk will be open to students and the public. ly rewarding, too. The other day a student really warmed my stony heart by saying "Mr. Abelein, I like you." 24-HOUR SERVICEOn WEDDING INVITATIONS PRINTERS . . .

Western squeezed by 2-1 and 6-5 Tuesday at Tacohra. Les Knudsenhurled a five-hitter in the first game for his fourth straight win. Bob Eacrett and Pat Hollingsworthcombined pitchings to take the second contest. Western got only three hits in the opener and none ofthem figured in the scoring. Don Smith and Gary Kohlwes scored after walks in the first and fifth innings. Last Thursday the Vikings split with PLC, winning 10-6 and losing 9-4. A sweep of the twin billThursday against CPS. would just about insure a division title. CPS and PLC play today and probablywill split their games. This would put Western two games in front. They could then win on a split withPLC, the final division games. They must, however, win at least three of the final four. Coach JackHubbard is expecting trouble next week from freshman Gerald Burke, top CPS hurler. He is figuring onsending Les Knudsen against the frosh fireball. This will be the last home stand for Western. On May 7they travel to the UW and on the 12th they meet PLC there. Division playoffs have not been decided yet. Whan, Nelson High Paced by the near-record performances of Ted Whan and Darrow Nelson, theVikings defeated the Central Washington Wildcats, 78-53 last Saturday. The meet also included theVancouver Olympic Club, which took the meet on the triangular basis. The near-record breakingperformance of Ted Whan in the 880 was the high point of the meet. Whan held off a last ditch drive by VOC's Stephens to break the tape at 1:56.9. The listed record is 1:56.7. Whan also placed in the broadjump and. ran a leg in the relay. Darrow Nelson pulled down high honors for Western with firsts in thehigh jump and broad jump events. Nelson leaped to a 21 foot 3% inches effort and went 5 feet 8 inchesin the high jump. The other firsts were garnered in the mile relay, pole vault, and the 120 high hurdles.Jim Hall won the vault by clearing 12 feet 1 inch. Harry Nelson of VOC was upset in his 100-yardspecialty when Central's Pierce turned in a sizzling .09.9. Tomorrow afternoon the Western cindersquad will play host to the Pacific Lutheran Gladiators.

Lastweek the petition was stymied by consitiutional law. The petition was supposed to be an "initiative"instead of a referendum." So it was ruled out and a motion to put the question on the ballot was passed.Anyway, the BOC action of 12 scholarships cannot be revoked now and the Athletic Department willmerely have to start wondering whether they will have anything next year. SPRING SPORTS FAIR SOFAR None of the spring outfits have been burning up the leagues. But they haven"t been bringing up therear either. Western finally took a doubleheader this week after splitting all the others. Pitching is themain weakness. Track is doing pretty good. Aside from the loss to Eastern, the squad has been doingswell. Golf and tennis haven't' had too many meets so far. We should know more in a couple ofweeks—only the season will be about over then. SCHEDULE TAKE WEEKLY CHANGE AGAIN Againthe spring calendar has changed. Each week the schedules seem to change. Teams cancel meets,teams can't play there, teams want to change the date. That is the reason we hate to publish schedules.They will be outdated by presstime. Just this week CPS cancelled all track meets. Besides confusingour track Schedule, it brings up an interesting point. Evergreen rules require four major sports for allleague entrees. Maybe CPS had already entered enough track meets to qualify. If not. this cancellationwould shove them out of the Evergreen Conference. SOFTBALL POPULAR SPRING SPORT Theintramural softball games have attracted quite a few spectators.

Boycott, Effigy Raise Issue of Food at Edens Quality of food and service at Edens Hall cafeteria became a major campus issue this week. Effigy hanging ofthe dietitian, Miss Luva Baldwin, and a boycott of the Tuesday evening meal brought the issue into theopen. Tuesday morning college gardeners removed ah effigy of "Queen Lulu" from a tree in front of the entrance of Old Main. BOARDERS BOYCOTT Tuesday night only approximately 125 of the more than350 regular boarders ate dinner at Edens. Twenty Edens boarders met with Dean C. W. McDonald,Dean Lorraine Powers and Dr. Merle Kuder, Director of Student Personnel Services, Wednesdayevening to come to some understanding on the situation. The students represented vtRH, Edens Halland Mathes House. "We're here to listen to your complaints," Dean McDonald said. "We hope out ofthis meeting will come some specfiic complaints and specific suggestions on how we can improve this situation." RUMORS SPREAD The Dean of Men opened the meeting saying there were two falserumors circulating. He said (1) he had at no time given his approval of anything which has happenedregarding the situation. A hunger strike—not necessarily this "hunger strike"—he said, might be anapproach to the problem, but he emphasized that effigy hanging is "beneath the dignity of collegestudents." He referred to it as "Ku (Continued on Page 8) Ellensburg squad is supposedly the team tobe at the Evergreen Conference.

And all went to see the wondrous displays, every one into the big city. And Joseph and Mary also went up from the counlryside, into the big city, a marvel of much bright andwondrous color, leaving their three children behind. And so it was that while there the department store'saims were accomplished, and Joseph brought forth many packages costing many dollars. AndJoseph's wife brought forth their pocketbook, showing it empty. And so they stepped into their aulo toleave for home and wait for the arrival of many bills, born unto them that day. And lo, the traffic lightshowed green and ihey sped from the city, carrying joyous tidings to their home. When suddenly thereappeared to them on Highway 99, the monstrous sight of a vehicle within whose comportments there,was a man, full of the Christmas spirits. And the man turned right and Joseph turned left and the air wasturned foul, as explosion ripped forth on the highway and two tin animals met, clashing in great fury.

R. Effigy-Hanging, Food BoycottExpensive Means To An End In the shadow of an effigy swinging in the early morning fog, 23 people sitand discuss a problem, and positive action is taken. Beginning wilh the effigy-hanging of the collegedietitian Tuesday morning and boycott of Edens Hall cafeteria the same evening, the quality of food andservice became the cause of a meeting of 20 students and three faculty representatives Wednesdayafternoon. At the meeting, the Dean of Men promised that positive action would be* taken " i f thedemands and the' suggestions are within reason." We think the following observations are significant: 1)Positive results were obtained by rational discussion of the problem. But this discussion had to beinitiated by spectacular and sensationally pulicized demonstration. 2) These same results could andshould have come about without such demonstrations. 3) Publicity of this demonstration in local andSeattle newspapers has cost the college—the students—greatly in public prestige. Therefore theseresults cost us unnecessarily. Why is this necessary in a college where the ideals of democracy areprofessed i n t h e classroom and in student government?

(faite* Speaking for the student body, I would like to extend a warm thanks to the Board of Controlmembers who leave the Board this quarter. They are Dr. Howard J. Critchfield, who has served the pastthree years; Lenko Gazija and Dave Northrup, who terminated their one year elected positions; and BruceHannaford and Bob Teshera who served in appointed positions. These people devoted much of their timeto the betterment of student government at Western. Besides attending the week y B0C meeting, theyeach had committee work which consisted of weekly meetings and often outside investigation. TheseBoard members have cooperated in forming the foundation of effective student government for theremainder of the year. Looking over the past two years, I can personally say that this Board has beenthe most harmonious and efficient organization I have worked with. I feel with certainty that the newmembers will serve in the same proficient manner as the previous ones. The Board welcomes JamesHildebrand, Ken Moffett, Tom Rom-erdahl, Bob Dunlap and Dan White. STUDENTS USE THEIR UNIONThe following is quoted from the Lafayette Journal and Courier, Nov. 26, 1955: "After football games when dances are staged in the ballrooms or when they bring their dads and mothers to campus for specialweekends . . . for meetings of clubs and honoraries . . . to entertain visiting dignitaries and artists atreceptions following concerts in the Hall of Music . . . for try outs for talent shows . . . to browse, pick up a book ;tnd read for an hour or so . . . to stop in the music room and hear a new recording or on lateSunday afternoons to linger for a moment !o hear organ music after a,week of rushing to meetings andappointments . . . for coke dates, the 10 a. m.

Student Union Building Gains $7,000 in Board Allocation Seven thousand dollars was allocated from budget control to the Student Union fund by the Board ofControl at their Wednesday meeting. This amount was part of the $ 17,008.76 in budget control whichhas been accumulated over the years. The action was an outcome of the financial report presented byBob Teshera, Finance chairman. Dave Northrup, chairman of the Student Union Committee explainedthat "with the passing of this motion the money will be invested and „ : at half-time of the Central vs.Western basketball game Saturday night. The Board approved the appropriation. A parliamentarydefect in the Co-op dividend appropriation was brought to the Board's attention by Bruce Hannaford,chairman of the ASB Constitution Committee. The BOC proceeded to adopt the resolution passed bythe student body at the last election concerning the dividends turnover. Speaking for the Boardmembers. Roland Sayler extended his appreciation for the three year services on the BOC by Dr.Howard J. Critchfield and thanked him for his many valuable contributions to the Board. Gratitude wasalso expressed to Lenko Gazija, Bruce Hannaford, Dave Northrup, and Bob Teshera whose term'sexpired with this meeting. drawing interest." Lenko Gazija,. chairman of the special committeeconcerning the possibilities of a basketball championship intramural play-off between the WesternEvergreen Conference schools gave a report on his investigation into the matter. Discussion oftraveling expenses produced a motion that the extramural basketball program fund was not to exceed$80. Under the present program Western's champion team would play UBC and PLC would meetCPS. Winners of the two games would compete for the Western Washington crown. However, amotion postponed the matter indefinitely.

It was discovered many yearsago when Miss Leona Sundquist was beginning to teach at Western. It was about midnight and MissSundquist was staying up late to clean up her laboratory and equipment. She opened one door thatentered a long narrow closet. She reached in to turn on the light. But the light chain was not long enough to be reached from the floor, so she stood on a chair. Looking about the room,, she saw much of theparaphernalia that is usually found in a biology supply room: walrus tusks, horns of deer and goats andeven a few turtle shells. Then her eyes fell on it—a very decrepit skeleton. "He scared me half todeath," said Miss Sundquist. "He must have been quite a fighter in his day; he had a few ribs missing,he oTidn't have all his fingers, and a lot of teeth weren't there." By probing into the life story of thisfellow, we have uncovered some interesting history. I He was a British pirate, this battered skeleton. Itis told by a former faculty member that his remains are the result of the last hanging to be staged inWhatcom county. It seems that our bony friend was definitely a fighter. He was in a lusty brawl onenight and as a result killed a man. The prescribed punishment was dealt to him, as Actors PresentO'Neill Play; Hagen Director of Production "The Long Voyage Home," a one-act play by Eugene O'Neill,was presented to the student body this morning in the College Auditorium as a presentation in the Artistsand Lecturers Series. Director of the play was Ted Hagen, a junior. Those taking part in the productionwere Bob Saxvik as Joe the bartender, Sharon Jay portraying Mag the barmaid and Bill El wood as Nick,a crimp. Four drunken sailors were portrayed by Stan Lilian, Buzz Lawrence, Al Gunderson and HaroldSchultz. Sharon Ballagh and Anne Houlahan presented the characters of Freda and Kate. Set designerfor the one-act was Carole Duvall; Lee Porterfield took on the responsibilities of stage manager. AlGunderson, Lee Porterfield and Dave Van Bronkhorst formed the scenery crew. Costumes wereprovided under the chairmanship of Joyce Brose. John Schermerhorn and Kathy Garrett were incharge of publicity.

In later years the medical association gave the skeleton to WWCE to be used forinstructional purposes.

The BOC went through mentalagonies Wednesday night and came up with several bad headache's but little else. The proposed 1956 budget was $1,223 over expected income; so the board heaved and tugged, pushed and pulled, andfiguratively speaking strained at the traces for a grinding 1% hours. At the end of this time they hadlopped a grand total of $50 from the $70,000 budget. These mental gymnastics came to an abrupt butexhausted end when a motion for adjournment was made, seconded with astounding alacrity by twofaculty advisers simultaneously, and an unceremonious stampede for the door ensued. We feel dutybound to report a touchingly magnanimous indication of sincerity on the part of the board—they cut$10 from their own coffee money. Datelimi e...

That's the way a lot of elections appear—and are. But after elections the work begins. Wewonder just how qualified you are going to be to carry out the work that will be expected of you. You willhave only one vote on the BOC. With it you will help decide what happens to over $70,000- the students of this College will place in the Board's hands to administrate for them. With it you will help decide the fateof athletics, the student union building and other student projects. Your one vote will come face to facewith some of fhe biggest issues that have ever faced this student body. Of course you will be able to siton the Board and never utter a word. That's the easy way—and sometimes that way is in the majority.But those who don't speak for themselves—and the students—are not spoken for. They representsilence. How much do you know of whafs going on in student government right now? Are you willing tofind out? How many meetings have you attended—before you filed? With how many people have youdiscussed the issue? Do you fancy that intuition will tell you how, where and why over $70,000 should bespent? Maybe you are just running for the experience to be gained or to try your hand at something new.Do you think ifs worth $70,000 just to give a person a chance to try his hand at something new? Weask you these questions—and hope you will ask them of yourselves—for your own good and the good of those you will be serving. There's never a better time than the present to reevaluate the situation; thisis more than a popularity contest. How do you stack up against the questions? To all of you we remainsincerely . . . And hopefully, YOUR CONSTITUENTS Ovii ok ike Kope . . . By BOB DUNLAP Who willwin the election? This is a question that at least nine people are asking. They, being candidates for Board of Control offices, are vitally interested in the outcome of the forthcoming general election (ninth week). In an effort to relieve these people of these ulcer-producing worries the Collegian has conducted a POLL. A representative cross section of the student body was sampled — L o u n g e , library, and : EdensHall—and the main hall! Results? We predict (Oh, to think of what happened to Dr. Gallup in '48!) thatNadine Schilling, BUI Siebler, and Paul Greenwalt will be elected. The fourth board position will be a toss up between Barbara Bos and Dave Amos.. The effectiveness of the campaigns, may have a directbearing on who will be elected. Both Bos and Amos are freshmen and relatively unknown to the upperclasses. The one who advances his qualifications most effectively will win.

Student Union Report Meets Sharp Criticism Western's proposed Student Union (severalsteps nearer construction) came under sharp criticism and debate at Tuesday night's Board meeting. " . . . I think we're flying a bit high," Bob Dunlap stated in response to a report submitted by temporarySUB Committee chairman Don Six, in which a $450,000 bond was recommended. With architectsfees and furnishings, Dunlap explained, the total cost would come to over $500,000. Larry Richardsonobjected to the committee's part of the report that recommended a faculty lounge. He stated that inconferring with some of the faculty members they had said they did not want a separate lounge, butwould prefer to mix and use student facilities. "At present there is no place where we can meet . . .," Dr. Albert Van Aver replied to Richardson's statement. He explained that it was inconvenient for facultymembers to have to rent space downtown whenever they wished to meet in large numbers. He.added that it was "a nice gesture" of the students to show some consideration for the faculty byincluding a faculty lounge in the union building. The debate was stopped by moving to immediatelyconsider the next item of business. In explaining his stand on the objection to the high bonding Dunlap explained, "I personally feel that the students should not assume a debt more than $500,000... I'dlike to have someone show me that we can't have an adequate; building for $400,000." Chairman RolandJSayler ruled that the debate over bonding was a little premature, and would be considered by the Boardwhen the architect and SUB Committee submitted more information. Mrs. May Bettman Retires WithMemories of 39 Years By WAYNE FINET She remembers the time when Shakespearean plays wereseen on the little knoll in front of Old Main, and how the actors used the trees and the sky for theirbackground. Mrs. May. Bettman, one of the grand ladies of Western, will be leaving the campus at theclose of the Summer Session. Mrs. Bettman has devoted 39 years of her life to making t he Collegesuccessful. Mrs. Bettman declares t h at m a n y years ago she ceased w o r king for theCollege and became a part of it. In addition to her work as a faculty member teachingcommercial subjects, she established and developed the central typing and mimeographing service so crucial to the smooth functioning of the College. Mrs. Bettman has seen the construction of everybuilding on the campus except Old Main. When she began here in 1917, there was no parking problem.There were few automobiles. She remembers when there was a hill where the library now sits. Sherecalls that, the area where most, of the newer buildings now lie used to be a residential district. Shechuckles over the pond called "Lake Depuddles" which- used to be in front of the women's dormitory.The men used to play tug-of-war there, and $he losers were pulled into the mire. Many of the old gradsused to work for her in the correspondence department,; such as Dr. Zeno Kat-terlc, Dean of the College of Education at Washington State College. She says that Campus Day used to be the time when allstudents came to school in old clothes.. They would spend the entire day cleaning and improving thecampus grounds^ then have a dance in the evening. She says she will miss her contacts with faculty, staff and students, in fact, everything about the College except climbing the stairs. more nine running (Continued from Page 1) ities, was chairman of the decorations committee for the Junior Prom andhas been a delegate for the two AWS national conventions.

Speaking to some 300 alumni, seniors andfaculty members at Edens Hall, Dr. Katterlee, (WWCE '26), dean of the School of Education atWashington State College, credited America's educational system with a large part in the greattechnological progress of the last half century. Reminiscing for the honor classes were Miss FrankieSullivan, one of five attending from the 1906 class, and Robert Studebaker, one of ten from the class of1931. Charles Dennis spoke for the graduating seniors on the obligations of college graduates. Dr. W.W. Haggard discussed "great years ahead for teachers," and predicted that many of the seniors wouldreturn to Western for their 50th anniversary in the year 2006. Whitfield Kratz, m e c h a n i c al drawingteacher at Bellingham High School, was named the outstanding teacher of Western WashingtonCollege's class of 1954.

Choreography in the show has been worked out by the girls themselves under thedirection of Miss Nelson. Admission to the show is free. Audience Reaction to Lithuania' AlmostWrecks Players' Effort By ALLAN MATHIESON An unforseen element, audience reaction, almost turnedthe efforts of the Western players into a fiasco last Friday. Only the determined efforts of the actorssaved the play from becoming completely farcical. Director Ted Hagen chose for his vehicle "Lithuania," a play with a Russian type setting and Russian type realism calculated to shock and disturb in itsdepiction of humanity degraded by poverty to a state of bestiality. TWELFTH NIGHT tickets are now onsale at the Auditorium box-office from 3-5 p. m. But the audience did not come to be shocked anddisturbed. They came to laugh, and laugh they did; during scenes of high melodramatic suspense. Thiswas partly the fault of the audience; it has been termed "lack of sophistication." It was also partly thefault of the Western Players. They should have realized that Western audiences are unused to that typeof play and acted accordingly. Some attempt to set the somber, evil, sordid atmosphere of theproduction should have been made, either in the program or with a prologue. The overabundance of goredecorating the axe, Miss Hess and the advertising posters tended to produce more snickers thanatmosphere. The players themselves, aside from a noticeable underpreparation, did a much better jobthan we saw in the last Player's effort, O'Neill's "Long Voyage Home." Sarah Hess, especially, seemedto catch the sordid quality of the play and did a fine job as the foot-twisted, mind-twisted daughter. Wedid feel, however, that Miss Hess looked a trifle too clean and unmussed for the part. Phil Howell, inhis brief appearance as the young man was sufficiently in tune with the mood of the play to make us wish he had remained on stage. The roles of the father and mother were perhaps the most difficult toplay, especially for young actors. Ardith Lein and Don Martin did not seem to fully understand thecharacters they were portraying. Or perhaps they were caught in the pitfall most actors meet—thetemptation to make their characterizations unnecessarily sympathetic.

Twelfth Night' Back at Western After 22Years "Twelfth Night; or What You Will," the ever-popular Shakespearean comedy, returns to thestage of Western Washington College next Friday and Saturday, May 18 and 19, after a 22-yearabsence. Presented by the Western Players and directed by Dr. Gerald Kahan, "Twelfth Night" is, bycoincidence, the 12th offering in this quarter's Artists and Lecturers Series. A charming and complicated love plot centers around Viola, separated by shipwreck from her twin brother, Sebastian. Disguised as a boy she exactly resembles her brother. Numerous mistakes in identity result before love finds a wayto unite Viola with the Duke and Sebastian with the gentle Olivia. Antics of Sir Toby Belch, Olivia'suncle; Sir Andrew Aguecheek;-the clown Feste; and Maria, the maid, as they contrive to discomfit thesneering Malvolio provide' some of the immortal dramatist's best comedy. Dedicated to the late VictorHoppe, former dramatics director at Western, this will be the first Shakespearean performance atthe College since "The Merchant of Venice," four years ago. It will be the first Shakespeare play in theAuditorium. Hoppe staged "The Merchant" on the landing in the foyer of the same building. Lastrecorded "Twelfth Night" presentation at Western was in March, 1934. Ten years earlier the s a m e play was performed w i th Hoppe in the role of Malvolio. Hoppe directed both productions.

Photo by Ken Bale "Papa Juan' aHit In UBC Mood Play By BILLIE BRESNAHAN Papa J u a n is a hundred years old and wants a familybirthday party. From this single wish arises the plot of "One Hundred Years Old," the comedy written bythe Quintro Brothers and presented by the University of British Columbia Player's Club Tuesday eveningat Western. The entire play, set in Spain (but acted with a Canadian accent, mdidentally) displayed thegaiety and romanticism of that country. These characteristics were emphasized by the colorful Spanishcostumes and stage settings. •As the big day of the party approaches, the excitement mounts.Cousins quarrel, family scandals come into the open, distant cousins fall in love, and relatives combineforces to keep other relatives away. Throughout the entire production Papa Juan, played by DavidHughes, remains a delightful, witty character. Alternating equal amounts of sound philosophy andsparkling wit, he captures the hearts of all his relatives, as well as those of the audience. Eventually, inresponse to his wishes, all his relatives assemble in his honor. Once more his plans are successful,for all the people, poor and rich, meet together in a happy family relationship, forgetting their pettyquarrels and feuds. The two other important characters of the play are Trino, the traveling playboy ofthe family, and Currita, the sparkling unaffected great great granddaughter. Once more Papa Juanlooks on, adding his _jnfluence occasionally, as the two fall in love. The play, like most plays, was lessinteresting in some parts, but the ability of the actors to remain in their distinct characters and thecharm and human insight of Papa Juan made it a successful production. The UBC Players' Club, theproducers of the play, is the oldest dramatic organization in Canada. Founded in 1915, the club hasmade an annual tour since 1920 with the exception of a very few years. ir Star Rexall Drug Co.PRESCRIPTIONS TOILETRIES Open 9 to 9 — Sun 6 to 9 State and Holly Ph. 224 With Our Cash Carry DISCOUNT you SAVE! 206 E.

This is a time whenthe AP wires of the local paper or radio stations would come in handy. The results of the games wouldcome over the wire soon after the games end. All I can say is, "Come on you Gladiators!" Anotherproblem will come up if there is a playoff. The game with Washington tomorrow will be much affected bytoday's results. If Western and CPS need a playoff, Hubbard won't use his top men against UW. And itwill take Western's best and then some to hold the Huskies back. They are way down in the NorthernDivision cellar and are just aching to get even for the 8-5 defeat Western gave them earlier. It will be aninteresting weekend, in more ways than one. REGIONAL MEET AT RENTON IN TWO WEEKS Twoweeks from today Renton, Washington will host the District one—National Association of IntercollegiateAthletics spring sport championships (whew) in tennis, golf, and track. It will be quite an affair as theyexpect 200 athletes from ten schools to participate. Sponsors of the meet are the city of Renton and more specifically, the Renton Lions Club. Field events will start at 7:30 p. m. Saturday and track events at 8.A team trophy will be awarded the winning school. Three of the District one track records are held byWWCE. Ted Whan clipped off a 49.5 run in the 440 in 1954 as a sophomore. Last year two Westernseniors established new standards at Renton. Gerry Swan ran the two mile in 9:24.9 and Ken Swalwellthrew the discus 159' 10%". Whan has a good chance of breaking his 49.5 run if the conditions are right.He has done a 49.8 in competition already and with a good track and some pressing competition in theevent, could do it. DUKE STAR SHINES—BAILEY UPSETS Dave Simes, Duke University's outstandingtrackman, did a brilliant day's work recently in the 100, 220, and low hurdles. For the third time this yearhe ran the century in 9.4. The 220 yard dash officials clocked hi mat 20.3, only one-tenth of a second offthe world record. And to top things off he did the 220 yard low hurdles in 22.2, breaking Harrison Dillard'smark of 22.3 Some day's work. Those of you who eyeballed TV over the weekend probably witnessed one of the most sensational mile runs of all time. Jim Bailey's upset of John Landy made many headlines onSunday—and Monday too. Seeing the mile run in 3:58.6 and 3:58.7 in one race is big stuff in anyleague. I had an occasion to see Bailey run the mile against the UW two weeks ago and although heoutdistanced everyone by 80-100 yards, his time was only 4:22. He looked great anyway.SHORTIES—UW scored 10 runs in the first inning against Oregon last week—and lost 16-15 . . .

They did cinch at least a share in the crown with College of Puget Sound when they lost 5-2 andwon 6-2 at Pacific Lutheran Monday. Today CPS meets PLC at the CPS field for the final divisiondouble-header. A split today would give Western its second straight division title. A sweep by CPSwould call for a playoff which would be scheduled for next week. Things looked fair last Thursday whenthe Vikings pounded CPS's top hurler, Jerry Burke, for ten hits and a 9-3 win. Freshman Dick Minicethrew a three-hitter in his college pitching debut. He also started the scoring off with a homer in thesecond inning. Bruce Randall cracked a triple and Gary Kohlwes a double for the other extra baseblows. ERRORS HURT Errors turned the table in the second game as the Loggers won 6-3. Don Smithgave the Vik fans a thrill with the longest homer at Battersby this season in the 4th with Les Knudsenaboard. Knudsen absorbed his first pitching loss since the 1954 season. Monday Western got onlyfour hits in the first game, loosing 5-2. Smith singled and Aldo Anderson walked and scored on OliverRiekkola's first single of the day. Minice evened his pitching record at 1-1 as PLC got to him for sevenhits. SMITH LEADS ATTACK Smith scored four times and got two for three to lead the Vikings to a 6-2win in the final game, cinching the tie for the title. Les Knudsen bounced back from his CPS loss tothrow a neat two-hitter at PLC. Both hits came in the sixth inning when the Glads pushed across theirtwo runs. Coach Jack Hubbard is intently waiting the results of the CPS-PLC clash as he has adoubleheader at Seattle tomorrow. Hubbard will save his top hurlers for the playoff if CPS splits.

The localthinclads didn't do too well at the Vancouver relays last Saturday. Western, and the other team entries,were handicapped by the entrances of Bob Richards, Ray Pella, and Terry Tobacco. VancouverOlympic Club came out as the meet winner. Richards piled up points in his pole vault specialty, thediscus, broad jump, and hop, step, and jump.
