XXIX—NO. 35 WASHINGTON STATE NORMAL SCH POL, BELLINGHAM, WASHINGTON Friday, March 21, 1930 r t Normalite JOURNALISM TEACHER FAILURES FINIS AND YE DIARY — RAY CRAFT With this issue of the Viking, Dolly Anderson terminates four quarters spent at the editor of the Northwest Viking. Hers has been a period of achievement, and the new staff will inherit a smooth running newspaper organization, a group of ambitious cubs trained under her leadership, and the traditional Viking position as one of the finest Normal School publications in the United States. Dolly Anderson is the third girl to have served in the editor's chair here. Since the first publication in 1809, the editorial office has been dominated by men. The reason, no doubt, is that many more men than women seek journalism as a profession. This is for those who haven't experienced the thrill of working on a paper: If you want a lot of fun and a lot of experience, sign up for English 3a under Fowler next quarter. You'll like the incomparable "Art" and "Walt" at the printery, and youll learn how, when you get out in the teaching field, to co-operate with the press and sell your community on your pet projects. .———W. S. N. S. BELLINGHAM CHAMBER DROPS FESTIVAL PLANS AT TUESDAY SESSION flf!f|Ps lllll§§ Commenting: last week on "Why Teachers Fail", Glenn Frank, president of Wisconsin University, recites the causes of failure uncovered by Skerman Lettler in . a n exhaustive study several years ago. Mr. Frank declares that these seventeen findings are still t h e main sources of inefficiency in our schoolrooms. The seventeen causes of teacher failure are these: Lack of control over the technique off teaching. Lack of ability to maintain order and discipline. Lack of mastery of subject matter. Lack of intelligence. Lack of effort, initiative, and adaptability. Lack of common sense. Lack of physical energy. Lack of standards of achievement. Lack of ability to carry on and of singleness of purpose. Lack of sympathetic understanding- of pupils. ; Lack of social background. Lack of knowledge of what pupils can dp. Lack of personality.. Lack ef moral standards. Mr. Frank declares that "If every teacher in the nation would check himself or herself against these seventeen causes of failure, in complete honesty of analysis, we might remake our schools within a few years. "Great teachers are great men and great women. We need never expect to have an over-supply of great teachers, therefore, for the race does not throw up a great many great men in any generation. But we must keep up the quest of teachers who bring to their task an informed technique,., accurate., and wide knowledge, intelligence, energy, initiative, adaptability, common sense, high standards of personal morals and professional achievement, singleness of purpose, sympathy, a rich social background, and an inspiring personality. W. S. N. S. And now that we are arriving at the bottom? of our column; our term as Normalite is about over. To use the crude vernacular of the fight , game, we've had some good matches since we got into this racket. We got the decision with the Nurse's office, and they are getting ready to build a men's consultation office. We went to a draw with Men's club reforms, and when we got in there to alter the class cutting system, our foot must have slipped or something, because when we came too the lights were out and the customers had all gone home. So we guess we're a has-been as Normalite, and we climb out between the ropes to let in a,faster, harder hitting youngster who has. a world of stuff up his cuff, and who. ^ bound to get a.big;hand from the ffanis when he goes into action. :0^:^\:'-r^^ • "•••••.';.4.:'. Trustees of the Chamber of Commerce voted Tuesday to abandon the Tulip festival this year. This action was taken on account of the agitation brought forth by many of the business men of the town, in regards to the carnival. The trustees' vote was overwhelming. They made the suggestion that the Tulip festival be held every other year, alternating with a Mount Baker marathon also every , other year. Another factor coming into its abandonment, is the lack of-sup-port being given to it by trie townspeople. To many of the Normal students the abandonment was quite a disappointment. The school was to have figured quite prominently in the Festival. The Queen and two princesses were to have been chosen' from the Normal. The Queen was to have been a Bellingham girl. The Pageant on Battersby field was also in charge of the "Normal by the Sea". President Fisher was co-operating with some of the committees in charge, also. 600STUDENTS HAVE REGISTRATION PLANS FOR NEXT QUARTER 100 of the Number Haven't Paid Fees, But Work for Next Term and Usual Rush Will Be Missing. FOUR CLASSES NOT TO MEET New Students, Old Members and Transfers Will Meet in Rooms 120, 105, and Dean Bever's Office. LUNCHEON IS GIVEN BY UPPER DIVISION College Group Reorganized for the First Time in Many Years; Dick Louis Made President of Class. The Junior-Senior College gave a luncheon for its members and several of the faculty on Thursday, March 13, in Edens Hall clubroom. This group, composed of all upper division students in the school has just reorganized this quarter after being inactive for several years. At present they have a membership of about sixty students. This membership is expected to increase rapidly in the future since the new requirements for longer attendance have been enforced. The officers elected this quarter are Dick Louis, president; Grace Olson, vice-president; Prances Young, secretary, and Eva Catlin, I. C. C. representative. Dr. Irving Miller is the faculty adviser. The luncheon last Thursday was for the purpose of making the members of the organization better acquainted, and to serve as an introduction for future events which will be planned for next quarter. The following program was presented: Vocal solos, Frances Young, accompanied by Margaret Morrison. Piano solos Doris Thompson Short speeches were made by Dr. Miller and Dick Louis. Mr. Lewis welcomed the members and urged good co-operation in all further affairs of the organization. Dr. Miller spoke of the fine possibilities for leadership in school life which this group possesses. Faculty guests at the luncheon included Miss Emma Erickson, Miss j Delie Keeler, Dr. Irving Miller and; Dr. C. C. Upshall. I Six hundred students took advantage of the pre-registration period, which occurred the latter part of this quarter. Of these, five hundred have completely registered, while the remainder have yet to pay their fees. This situation will make registration for the opening day of next quarter, Monday, March 31, a simple process.

Final Plans for Klipsun Well Under Way, Announces Editor of 1930 Book Work on the Klipsun is progressing rapidly and"-final plan's for organization are almost ^entirely finished, according to Bernice Gnagey, editor of this year's annual. Several innovations are promised and the book will differ in many respects from the 1929 Klipsun. There will be no regular section of campus photographs as has heretofore been the custom but, instead, the division pages will be the background for various campus sketches. These sketches will be worked out in a new water color process which is said to give a clear, smooth, and delicate appearance to the colors. Three shades will be used—blue, yellow, and burnt siena. An evening scene of the entire campus with Sehpme Hill rising above will be pictured on the end sheets in both the front and back. This will relieve the uninteresting appearance of the opening pages. The cover design has not yet, been chosen but the David Maloy Company, of, Chicago, and a Seattle firm are now working on it. The dominant tone in the cover will probably •be blue and the word "Klipsun," as well as the numerals "1930," will be placed on the front instead of on the backbone as was done last year. The border on each page will consist of a small sketch of the main building in a blue shade, with a column of ---------- Northwest Viking - 1930 March 21 - Page 2 ---------- ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ V^infeTON e iNorcnwest vu Formerly The Weekly Messenger—Fotmded 1899 lng Published weekly by Students' Association of State Normal School, Bellingham, Wash.

It is with a little sadness that I relinquish the position I have treasured for the past four quarters, but it is a sadness mingled with gladness for with my going comes a new editor, full of new ideas, brimming over with eager intentions—one '' who will doubtless make you anticipate each issue of the Viking. A -iBefore I go, I want to thank Ray, Bobby, Pearl, Barney, Bert, Arnold, Jack, Irene, and those four staffs of reporters with whom I f J have worked, for their faithfulness, eagerness, and their true Viking spirit. To the Viking ship's main sails, Art and Walt, the "corpulent" and lean printers, respectively, and Mr. Fowler, may I express my sincere gratitude. I am glad to have had the opportunity of being associated with three business managers, Barney Chichester, Ben Hamilton, and Gordon Leen, and to them I express my appreciation for the cooperation and kindness they have shown. May I thank the present staff, sincerely, and from the bottom of my heart, for the gift which you presented me last Friday. I felt that I could not thank you enough at our little gathering that night for-—well, I'm feminine and necessarily emotional. To the Northwest Viking readers, I say farewell and introduce you to your new managing editor, Ray Craft. "Step right up, Mr. Craft, take my "doiby"—have a big, black 'seegar'—put your feet up on my desk—look hard-boiled—and go to i t ! " —The EDITOR E D U C A T I O N ' S F U T U RE Dr. Max Mason, president of the Rockefeller Foundation, former president of the University of Chicago and former professor of physics at the University of Wisconsin, has sketched a new picture for future education. The keynote of his predictions was, more physicians and fewer professors in the educational institutions of the future. He states that the professors of the future will let the students do their own learning and have physicians present to see that the students don't study too hard. In his speech at the University of Washington recently, he said, "Students of the future will attend college to obtain certain definite kinds of knowledge to fit them for specific functions in life". "There will be no examinations or quizzes to ascertain whether the student has remembered everything the professor told him to remember -—(A good many of us would have wished for future times this week). "The professor is not a drill master. He should not, like an army sergeant, tell his pupils where to walk and how fast. He ;shpuld inspire their curiosity and hey will learn for hemselves". ^1 S P R I N G H A S S P R U NG In the spring, the young Normal boy's and girls' fancies turn to thoughts of—j—spring vacation. Vacation—after a three-months steady grind interspersed by play-times in form of dances, parties, and entertainments—-is so near. Just a few more hours and for some of us it is, "Home, James"—but for the majority of us it's, "Gotta hurry or I'll miss the southbound freight"! No matter, at any rate we're off to a hard play-time—and not a text book will.wfe open—Begorra! \ H • : •_ ^ y o m PHILO CLUB .

First grade are playing a game, the Second grade learning a poem, • and the Third grade picking out the correct words to fill into blanks. —o— WE ARE PLAYING THE GAME WITH THE FIRST GRADE. We love these funny little people, with their patched trousers, darned stockings and dirty fingernails—and we wonder why we try constantly to change them. —o— Then we turned around aiid found some one copying some one else's work. They come from queer little homes where queer standards, if any, are the foundation of existence. We have met then- poor, narrow-minded parents, and yet we love these children—love these eyes that are great pools of the soiil, where the rain drops and the sun shines with the changing weather of life. AND WHY SHOULD WE CALL THESE PEOPLE QUEER, JUST BECAUSE THEY ARE PECULIAR TO US? We saw black boughs of the willow tree against the moon. We saw them in morning — in the evening —in summer and in fall. —o— They are Fate—the skeleton of what Life really is—what Life is built on. When We get just a little weary along this rocky highway, we get glimpses of willows against the moon. —o— We saw black branches only today. WE RECEIVED AN INVITATION TO THE VIKING PARTY, AND NO ONE WILL EVER KNOW EXACTLY HOW WE FELT. —o— .And then we said to ourselves: Perhaps we loved those associations because they made us feel important. —o— We had never learned to hate, there in your World of good fellows —and we regret to say that this narrow little world taught us the unruly weeds of hate. AND IT HURTS SO TO HATE! —o— It hurts our pride to hate—and it hurts something away down in our chests that idealists call a heart. —o— Then we fell to wondering if these people who hate so much haven't a hardened callous around their hearts. —o— Or, perhaps they have overlooked those dull, achings of the heart for so many ages that finally the pain and outcrop have been silenced. —o— But we hope hate will never do that much to us. We won't let it! We'll build a wall around our hearts —a wall of sunshine. We'll turn Pollyanna or St. Valentine. Ethics is the biggest problem in leaching, as we see it. if * * Most children have something with which to learn reading, writing and arithmetic— that is, namely, intelligence! gt; gt; * :J But we have found that there are some children who have no standards or ideals on which to base ethical or moral training. It's then that we wonder what to do. * • * * Nothing in our Normal training prepared us for this problem. MABEL NORMAND IS DEAD.

Irish Comedy (W. L.) After two successful performances, the Drama club play "The White-headed Boy" joins the vast and ~^V-^^^ kinJa ser'l0US about much talked of past. Comments , , n auafi„ Makes a have been flying "here and there concerning the event and for a few days the good and bad qualities, personal likes and dislikes, the relative merits of the play, and the work of the actors were topics under discussion. In regard to t h e histrionic ability of the players and the efficiency of the director there has been nothing but praise, yet from various individuals have come dissatisfied remarks referring to the way in which the play ended. This opens the way to discussion. In the first place the play was a comedy and a comedy does not follow convention. To have the "Whiteheaded Boy" thwarted and thrown out on his own, to have each girl's ambition realized, to have Peter placed successfully in business, and to have the fond mother wake up, would probably have been the right and conventional ending so far as the audience was concerned, but there is where the spirit of comedy enters. ---------- Northwest Viking - 1930 March 21 - Page 3 ---------- WASHTNJTTQN STATC N O R l ^ •\!!M^H^!'VJ gt;Mf-y»V!?/'W«iV!i;''\S Helene Madison, pretty acquatic star of the new Washington Athletic club in Seattle,, returns home Saturday from an extended tour of the South where she captured seven world titles and broke five world records in a period of two weeks. The Seattle business men are planning to give her an ovation which will rival Colonel Lindberg's return from his epochal flight. Too much praise cannot be given Miss Madison as her feats outshad-bw those of Wilson, Carrol, Brix, the championship Washington crews, and any others that have made his? tory for the Northwest sport world. * * * * We are wondering why the state doesnt send North Central, the winner of the state basketball championship of Washington, to Chicago to compete for the national title. Prom all indications they would have more than a good chance for the title. If they deserve it, why hot give it to them? we say. The training school enjoyed an excellent season in basketball this year, losing only to Lowell in the finals. Chuck Fisher and Wick Carver were placed on the all-city grade school team. It has been rumored that Ellens-burg will be without a representative in the Spring sports this year, due to the lack of funds in the athletic treasury. We are mighty sorry to hear that 'cause we felt sure we would even things up by winning the baseball, track and tennis championships.

QUARTERLY BANQUET HELD IN CLUB ROOM Speeches, Introduction of Spring Sports and Announcement at Marionettes Feature Program. The quarterly sports banquet was held last Friday evening in the club room of Eden's hall with Gay Smith as toastmistress. After dinner was served a welcome address was given by Ruth Sammons, president of W A. A.; followed by a short talk by President C. H. Fisher. Winter sport talks were given by their different managers and all-star teams were announced by Miss Margery Horton, who gave out the certificates of star identification. Spring sports, speed ball, baseball, tennis, archery, hiking and swim ming were introduced by Katherin Zeran and announcements of the Marionette show and the informal were made by Marion Marchand. About fifty people were present at the banquet including Miss Orpha McPherson, Miss Lillian George, Miss Ruth Weythman, Miss Margery Horton, President and Mrs. C. H. Fisher, Mr. and Mrs. Herbert C. Ruckmick, and Mr. E. A. Bond. o NORTH CENTRAL WINS STATE CHAMPIONSHIP North Central High, of Spokane, won the Eighth annual State High school basketball touranment, by defeating Walla Walla, 29 to 25, in the final game of the tourney. Sixteen teams competed at Seattle, March 13, 14, 15. The other teams finished as follows: Everett, Ho-quiam, Endicott, Foster, Stadium, and Fair haven. The tourney brought out several good brands of playing', and keen interest was shown by the spectators. It is thought that North Central may be sent back to the National tournament, at Chicago. .. o—:—: Mrs. Margaret Still, a graduate of this school has been assisting in t he extension office during the rush of test week. • _—o — •' FACULTY MEMBERS ON HIKE Five members of the faculty, Dr. Upshall, Dr. Masters, Mr. E.

Pitchers Is Coach Gunn's Biggest Problem for a Real Baseball Team. NO CINCHES FOR BERTHS "If the Vikings had to place a ball club on t he field today, most of the positions would be settled by the toss-up method". So states "Pop" Gunn, who has been putting about 25 aspirants through their paces during the past few weeks. Occie Thorsen has the inside track on first base, Dixon and Bailey look good as outfielders, and Hugh Mc- Clary is showing up well as a backstop. As for the rest of the team, no one knows who will fill the gaps. I n the infield Johnston has. an edge on shortstop, while Eacrett and Iverson are even up at third. Ped-erson, Lindall, and Miller are all out for infield berths and are show* ing good possibilities. Emery and Thompson are out for anything they can get and are liable to bust into the lineup any place. Other infield-ers are Brownlow, Dowell, and Vaughn. Outfielders are less numerous. Besides the lettermen, McCleary, McMeen, and Dave Cole are working for positions. To make things interesting for Thorsen, Hslde, Tew, and Hunnicut are all working for the first sack. Lack of first class pitchers is noticeable on the club. Blankenship and Konopshi are heading the list, with Iverson, Johnston, and Eacrett also taking a turn in the box. One thing is certain.' No one is going to loaf on the job. A hard DROPS LAST GAME Lowell Takes City Championship from Training School in Fast Breaking Game Five to Three. That class of basketball fans that doesn't enjoy a game unless there is scoring and plenty of it, didn't miss anything over at Whatcom last Friday afternoon—but those that love to see a close checking game in which everyone of t he few points are earned, lost a treat by not being there to watch the Normal Training school hoopsters tackle the Lowell grade school casaba-tossers for the city championship. The final score would represent an ideal one for a, baseball game, 5 to 3 in favor of Lowell. Both teams fought hard, and the checking, as t he score indicates, was very close. Each team scored one field goal, the remainder of the points being made via the foul shooting method. The winners had more chances at making free throws, and "there proved- that the victory hinged on the fouls made by t he Normalites. o Pressing a button releases either salt or pepper from a shaker combination that an Indiana man has invented. grind is ahead of the team and only those who want to work will be considered for a position. Anyway, says Gunn, "There is a lot of work to be done before a club can be put on the field. But the will to succeed in there, stronger than ever this year, and.that is what counts. They won't kick our club around this year. Not if we know our baseball. S T A R T I N G S A T U R D AY for only 4 days Douglas Fairbanks, Jr. • Jeannette Loff in TEAMED SIGN DP NEXT QUARTER FOR INTRAMURAL GAMES Aspiring Managers Now Spotting Likely Candidates for Their Teams From Varsity Men. MUCH INTEREST SHOWN "—Four, —five". "All right, next hitter, take five". Coach R. E. (Pop) Gunn grooms his charges out on the Southwest corner of Waldo field. Batting practice, fly chasing, throwing and a little infield practice. Upon being asked to make a statement he said: "We won't take all the lickings. I have never failed yet to put out a good team". While Coach Gunn is looking out for coming material the different clubs and aspiring managers stand on the sidelines, spotting the likely candidates for their intramural teams. At the beginning of next quarter lists will be posted on the bulletin board in the Men's Athletic office, for all clubs and teams who wish to sign up for intramural games. It is expected that there will be about four teams enter the race. The games will be either five or seven-innings, no pitcher will be used for more than four innings and varsity team members will be eligible to play at the discretion of the head coach. In all probability the race will be close competition throughout. 4.,,—», ,. „„ „„ ,„. „„ .„__,0_„,__Bn_14. ,„ mi n» m nu m i — » u — « « — » n — • • £• Spring Vacation Will Seem Dull Without Good Book So Be Sure to Stop in on We Have All the Latest your way home to the Montague-Mc Hugh CIRCULATING LIBRARY "THE PARTY GIRL" - S h e Was a Wow at Making W H O O P E E !

A roati-i riee for grade children at 2:00 p. m., proved interesting and successful to a crowded house. There was a fairly large group of people at t h e evening performance and the players with their clever faces and sharp jointed walk creat ' e d many laughs. The intricacy of the 500 strings used in the play caused much* enthusiasm and ap plause was loud when the stringed cow and dog leaned gradually across the stage. .,. Old Rip, with his low, easygoing voice was master of the.show, al though his dame and daughter had their parts, too. The scene in the mountains with the multi-numbered dwarfs and the keg of snock which Rip drank were effective and the audience was awed with the suddenness of the ghost's appearance on the quietness of the landscape.
