Several more people have joined the great army of the unemployed. The election depression is over. Four walked out of office, five walked in, and twelve walked away, and it's a funny thing, if you get elected, they congratulate you, if not, they congratulate the school. ^ ——W.S.N.S.— PHILOSOPHIZING Nearly every person is a natural reformer, but he always wants to start reforming the other fellow.^ W.S.N.S.- Itis not the usual policy of this column to publish., want., ads., in competition with the business staff. An exception is made in this instance. CLASSIFIED WANTED—A woman who will marry a very eligible young man and teach school (or private fortune tune preferred) to send him through the university. Qualifications given upon request. Address Box 0012 B. S. N. S. Columnist's note: Take no chance on address, girls. See me first and' all will be arranged. W.S.N.S. It must have been discouraging to the picketers crusading against nonunion theatres when one of the local show houses changed its name. They, had to make new signs and now we wonder why the "sandwich men" don't do something about conditions when all their signs claim that "Our" theater is unfair to organized labor. W.S.N.S. SUB NORMAL SUSIE SAYS My roomie's ma gave her a book called, "What a Young Woman Should Know" and she immediately wrote to the author suggesting twenty corrections and the addition of three chapters. —;—W;S.N.S. When some new theory is advanced, such as those connected with our economic life, reactionary individuals say, "O, yes. It sounds good, but—" Well that's something in its favor. A lot of our present systems don't even sound good. ——W.S.N.S. Do you come to school to get knowledge or to make friends? Knowledge, you say. Yes, at least a diploma. All through our education the WHA T side of our training is stressed. We are told thai WHAT we know is the thing that makes for success, but after we get out in-the World of competition well find that WHAT is not nearly as important as WHO.

Fisher Is Re-Elected POSITIONS} LEFT VACANT BY RESIGNATIONS UNFILLED. The Normal Board of Trustees met Friday, April 17, for the purpose od adopting a policy regarding the ad justements made necessary by the recent budget cut. • Changes were necessary in both faculty salary reduction and an increase in student fees. It was decided to make a five percent reduction in the salaries paid at the Normal including the president, faculty, office staff and employees. Student Fees Increased Since the teachers share in this cut it was felt that it was only fair that the students too should share in this emergency situation. In view of this fact, there will be an increase amounting to five dollars per quarter in the existing fees but no new fees will be added. In commenting on this change, President C. H. Fisher said: "We had to either add on to the present student fees or drop members of the faculty and we felt that we could not do this without crippling the work of the school. At this meeting the policy was adopted to preserve what has been built up during the past years."

Other Speakers Friday evening they went to a banquet, at which Dr. William John Cooper was the main speaker. He spoke on the relation of Home Economics to the school system. Saturday morning a business meeting was held, at which Dr. Cooper spoke again. Professor Raitt and Dr. Roundtree of the University of Washington, and Mrs. Kant-ner of Everett were other speakers. Scribe Seeks Sight of the Sovereign Vancouver Visitor Vanishes From View Of Siam; Instead She Sees Svasti (By HELEN FOSTER) April 17th, when Canada and the United States had their first glimpse of Royalty with the arrival of the King of Siam, I held an interested position as one of the many spectators who thronged the street outside the Canadian Pacific Railway station waiting for the royal party to disembark. Well, this is the closest I haye ever been to Royalty, to say nothing of an Absolute Monarch, and then I didn't see King Prajahipok, but I did see his father- in-law, Prince Svasti. •'',1'.':-The.'

With his jovial manner and democratic ideas, the Prince was soon a favorite with all who met him. He showed a great interest in the news reporters and asked them more questions than they asked him. At home in Bangkok, the prince is the owner and editor of the Bangkok Daily Mail, a newspaper which has both British and American correspondence. Rather proudly did Prince Svasti exhibit a blackened left eye to the reporters, with the astonishing explanation that he had received it from her Ladyship, the Empress of Japan. iQuwtibned :; • atv length, ilie Prince explained that he h a d ^^ ( ( ^ t i a H d w r ^ T M ) 3 Quarter Student Dies j$fter Operation; Services at Prosser Complications following an operation for appendicitis resulted Sunday in the death of Miss Evelyn L. Thomas, Normal student for the past seven months, in a local hospital. Miss Thomas' home was in Prosser, Washington. She graduated from Prosser high school and then entered Bellingham Normal in September, 1930. Miss Thomas withdrew from school April 7. She was taken to the hospital April'8 and operated on that day. Two weeks later she died. o— NATURALIST PLANS SPEECH HERE SOON F. W. SCHMOE, SCIENCE CHIEF, WILL ILLUSTRATE LECTURE. In the assembly on Tuesday, April 28, Mr. F. W. Schmoe, the well-known Western naturalist, will present an illustrated lecture entitled "The Cruise of a Sea Gypsy in Alaska." Mr. Schmbe is the executive secretary of the Puget Sound Academy of Science, which has its headquarters at the University of Washington. He lectured in the Normal assembly two years ago, having as his subject "My Wilderness Neighbors," based on his observations around Mt. Rainier. He has been cruising in Alaska in a forty-foot sailing boat, coyer-. tag, over..3;000 miles of- waterways, having many very interesting "experiences and securing a splendid set of pictures. The pictures, which he himself takes, include almost everything from glaciers to Indian mummies and sailing to big game hunting (with a camera). These pictures are made into colored slides, and used in illustrating lectures. __ o WOMEN'S GROUP VOTE OFFICERS IN FOR THREE QUARTERS STARTING IN FALL While political controversy in the feminine world has not raged as violently as in the all-school affair, there is stili much doubt as to who will gain the honors in the Women's League election. Today in the regular assembly the votes were cast to decide which girls would lead the women's organization for the Fall, Winter, and Spring quarters of 1931 and 1932. Offices filled at this time were president, vice-president, s e c r e t a r y, treasurer, and faculty adviser. Girls whose petitions received the necessary twenty-five signers and who automatically became nominees were Vera Esleby and Katherine Frost for president and Miss Ruth Piatt for faculty adviser. Other names which received various numbers of signers were: Clara Stokesberry and Cathleen Hill, vice-president; Edith Jenkins and Bessie Taylor, secretary; Mary Tarbox and Elizabeth Squire, treasurer; and Miss Hazel Breakey, faculty adviser. These names were nominated from the floor, since the necessary quota of signers was not obtained on the bulletin, board petitions. MISS,||ICH TO ATTEND MifellNG IN SEATTLE Miss Mary E. Rich, president of the Washington State Branch of Administrative Women in Education, will attend the meeting of that organization tomorrow in Seattle. The meeting will consist of a luncheon at the Wilsonian hotel and a ousiness meeting for the election of officers. .-:: ,;} :• Other faculty members who will attend the councU are: Miss Mar-jorie Dawson, Miss Elsie ,Wendling, and Miss Anna Beiswenger, ^i: INSIDE AND OUTSIDE GIRLS SET DATES FOR SPRING DANCES MAL 11 TO 16 BUSY ONE FOR NORMARLITES WITH VODVIL, PICNIC AND DANCE DATES STARTS TOMORROW Swinging all cares to the winds the coming social season is guaranteed to put springs under the heaviest-laden pair of sport's oxfords and to make vivacious the most languid of over-worked and spring-fevered Normalites. The season will start out with a bang in the form of a big game with St. Martin's on the local field tomorrow afternoon. On the heels of this first game of the season will come the track meet with C. P. S. on Wednesday, April 29. To hail the coming;of the wonderful month of May the WAA girls have decided to invite the whole school to a "Jitney Dance." It is to be held on the old tennis courts. The proverbial "three dances for five cents" with the ladies standing in the lines that such a dance requires will lend the right amount of atmosphere to an event that already shows promise of being one of the ticket sellers of the year. Drama Club Picnic Pop will be sold for the meager price of five cents and the girls have promised to have on hand all the pop that the Normalites can consume. Those on the committee for this dance are. Nina Johansen, Josephine Sabloskie, Marian Grieve, Marie Wesseler, Dorothy Top, Frei-da Klinski, Hildur Johanson, and Winnie DeWitt. ,. _ ,v, j ,»/ May 9 will hailthe^coming of the Drama club picnic to be held at Shoreacres. "According to the reports that have been received the picnic will be one of those that last all day. Plenty of amusement is offered in the form of swimming, and games in the afternoon, dinner at 6:30 and a dance in the evening. Normalites, of icourse, will not want to miss the Men's club Vod-vil, which, after much discussion, is to be given on May 11. Jokes, (Continued on Page Two) o :— C. A.

SSSBSEP •-.— •- -3036 The Viking wishes to express its regret on hearing the news of the death of Evelyn Thomas, who had been a student here since September, 1930, and to extend the sympathy of Bellingham Normal as a whole to her family and friends. .-——' ;—o- : ; ADVERTISE! There are so few, if any, in the school that do not take pride in the whole make-up of the institution, that they do not even count when the final score is tallied. But for the large number that enjoy the surroundings and the life offered to them, recognition is a great thing. It has been called to the attention pf The Viking several times that the people of Bellingham, in the main, know comparatively little of what is going on up here beneath ^ehome^ ,i We have met up with experiences where visitors claim that they have trouble in finding the school, and in asking for information find that 'people of. the city know little or nothing of the place. Some even are vague as to where it is situated. In other cases it has been proven that sometimes no interest is taken in the school whatsoever. It is a large problem as to who is to blame for such a condition existing. But education is needed,in some sugar pill form. It is no credit to the townspeople,and Jess than that to the school. It is true that it is not a policy for the school to carry on a wholesale campaign of advertising on the school that is perched on the hill. It is quite valuable in many ways to have the place and its activity well before the eyes of the Bellingham public. . F r o m their side of it, they are to be criticised in general for not taking . more interest in a group that brings many dollars into the town each week. .There.are those, of course, that back the school to the limit. ,^"llie. Viking is anxious to see that the school gets more recognition in ;trjei future, but is at a loss to find a way of accomplishing this. It will welcome any idea the students can submit and will take the responsibility ci. putting over an "educational" campaign, if it can get hold of one at ^ail feasible. The students that have any ideas are asked to confer with . the local office at some convenient date. VIOLA WASTERLAIN PRESENTS GROUP OF VIOLIN NUMBERS. PRESCRIPTION—DEATH! Apparently the clubs of the school are dead—at least that is the thought that has been expressed by many during the last several years. As this issue seems to be a strong one with many, The Viking set out to find statistics and information that would substantiate such a statement. Little success was met with. After all it was found that only a few of the clubs are really dead. It appears that several of those that make social activity hold the center of the stage, are having a hard time to weather out the "depression." A great many, however, are working regularly on some special topic, and are anything but defunct. The clubs that we speak of as social should not be ranked as institutions having irresponsible membership, poor leadership, or any other charges that picture the personnel as more or less dead. It is not the fault of the people that have joined these in the past few years, but merely a matter of changes in the daily routine of the school. .There was a time when Normalites depended on these groups for the major part of their social life, a thing that is vital to the students, and consequently good food for the lively club parasites that fed on it. Each year the social calendar of the school has been made fuller and more rounded. Today it supplies practically all that the students can absorb in their actual school life, and the need for; these clubs has been less and less through it all. There are so many types of these groups that it is impossible to make all statements and views apply to them, and thus we point out none in particular but apply everything in a general way. To those groups that have international problems, the study of politics, history, foreign relations, the religious and athletic sets, it is evident that they are working in the enlightenment end and do not get a great deal of opposition from school society. These are in many cases held together a great deal by the classroom contact between teached and leader. Those will continue to thrive. fAs to the clubs that are having a hard time to labor against the school activities, we feel that they will be better off when they gradually die a natural death. Then if they are missed and needed it will be little trouble for them to again take on growth. At the present, though, sev-jeral of them are at a standstill. THE RIGHT SPIRIT It isn't so good when an organization starts on a project in the entertainment type and then fails to give it. But when they immediately retaliate and get ready to go through with it for sure on a later date, they are to be complimented. The Men drew criticism when they called their show off, but they were justified from their standpoint. They were unable to go through with the, thing as planned, they didn't want to give a "half-baked" production. They are working harder than ever now and in the end will show something to the students that will be above the original. But more important than anything is the fact that they will be keeping an indirect promise made to the student body. if!!!

Showing unusual musical depth and great technical facility in her playing, Miss Viola Wasterlain, acclaimed by critics to be one of America's foremost violinists, appeared in assembly Tuesday, April 21, accompanied by Mr. John Sund-sten at the piano.

This young artist is distinguished by her winning of five separate and distinct scholarships from Cesar Thomson the noted Belgian violinist.

WASHINGTON In the Ellensburg Campus Crier a note that the track, squad pic-tores were taken and that there were thirty-five men; out in suit. •These, men think that they will really.have a good chance at copping high honors at the Tri-Normal meet. ' Were all these men oat to have their pictures taken or are they really on the team? Anyway it is nice to hitch your dreams to a star. Last Tuesday in a practice game, Thorson showed up with a little speed... Campbell was on third and Thorson was on second. Thorson decided to steal a base so away he Went... When he got to third, Campbell was still there and so he had to go back to second, and, he made it. That looks like a little of the **ol pepper" is in there pitchin*. * Q * - And now they have put the skids on boxing. A few days ago the faculty committee at the University of Washington ruled out inter-collegiate boxing. That is a tough hreak, Washington. The boxing team in the last four years has been doing good work and Coach Norm Kunde has been a good coach. Of course, it is the right of the committee to role thusly. Maybe the idea is a good one and maybe not. That, naturally, must be settled by future developments. Is it just personal view points or is there really something the matter with boxing? * Q * Percy Williams, sprint champion star of the 1928 Olympic games, will come to Bellingham some time this summer and compete against any sprinter in the 100-yard dash and in the 100-meter events. Williams wants to limber up and gel in some competition before entering the 1932 Olympic games where he meets Eddie Tolan of Michigan, who defeated him. lost year. * Q • Well folks, tomorrow is the day of the first baseball game of the season. The Vikings will meet the St. Martin's Bangers on Waldo field at two o'clock. i The squad of boys' are pretty green yet, but after tomorrow's battle they will be in much better shape. Dixon, Thorson, McCIeary, Iverson, and H. McCIeary are the veterans and they will have to help the boys along a bit. Well, let's get out and give the boys a big hand. • Q « How does the typical track man measure up with the typical gridiron performer? Statistics. comparisons of the members of last fall's championship Cougar football team and the present track and field squad reveal that the average cinder artist is shorter, lighter and younger than his grid brother. The figures show the average track man 5 feet 10% iches tall, 161 pounds in weight and 21 years old. The football average of last fall was 5 feet 11 inches tall, 181 pounds in weight and 21.7 years old. JIMMY DAVIS IS INDIVIDUAL WINNER BY CINCHING 20 OF THE 87 POINTS SCORED. SOPHOMORES 38 And last week in the inter-class track meet the frosh beat the upper classmen by a score of 87 to 38. Davis, a frosh from Burlington, Was the high point man. Three cheers for the frosh and fripre power to the sophs and it looks liMe: there :is some good material in the frosh outfits. _ -. • .:;, o ^— Last Wednesday afternoon the Varsity baseball team took on Whatcom high for- a practice game of nine innings.. The fiinal score showed the Vikings in the lead by a large margin, the score being 8 to :J The Whatcom Redskins seemed very ; over-confident and so the Wkings wind of took them off their iftghchah; WtMJ^slms hadn% J^? ^ confident the score would; ;%qO%;beev j£ •Nice work, boys, and let's do the' Garnering a total of 87 points in the interclass track meet last Saturday the Prosh:soundly trounced the Sophomores who were able to chalk up but 38 markers. With a total of 11 first, 10 seconds an dthe remainder in thirds, the yearlings far outplaced the up-perclassmen who had a total of but 3 firsts, 5 seconds and a few thirds. This defeat dealt out by the ambitious Frosh was even more staggering than the one of last year, and points to some very good material for Coach Carver's cinder artists. Time for the runs was considerably retardted by a stiff wind that slowed the runners on the straight away. Frosh on Top From the opening event the Frosh held the upper hand and at no time did the Sophs show themselves to be outstanding opponents for their rivals. In the first event, the 100-yard dash, the . Frosh jumped immediately in the lea,d when Thomas, Gable adn Campbell rolled in nine points for their team. Thomas won by a hairs-breadth in 10 and 4-5 seconds. He also took the 220 in 24 and 1-5, with Gable a half a stride behind. Probably the most outstanding contender of the meet was Davis, Frosh, from last year's Burlington track team. Winning four events— high hurdles, low hurdles, high jump and broad jump, to make himself high point man of the dual meet with 20 points, proved that he will be a valuable addition to the Normal team. Bright Fast Norm Bright, Soph, turned in very exceptional time in the 880 and 440. Although not running his favorite event, the mile, Bright made the half mile in 2:05, and the one lap race in 54 seconds.L In the field events, Sutton of the Frosh won the shot and discus with distances of 35 ft. 7 in. and 100 ft., respectively. The Tri-C club held its first meeting of the spring quarter on Wednesday, April 15. Plans for the spring quarter social activities were discussed and reports made upon the Candy Party to be given at the Y. W. C. A. sdmetime in the near future.

We may expect to see rather remarkable talent shown, in this recital, since only those who showed outstanding ability in the practices of last quarter make up the cast. The cast altogether includes fifteen, and the four leads are taken by Mary McDonald,, Pauline Larkin Edith Koski, and Wilma Neely. An attempt has been made to include in this presentation each of the various forms of the; dance, so the program is arranged in four groups: the first, the tap dance; the second, folk dances; third, solo interpretive; and fourth, a set of four group dances. The general program is as follows: 1—juba, Carolinas, Strawfoot, Sweet as Sugah, by Jane Polachek, Phyllis Roberts, and HeJenjMcTaggart. 2—Tarentella, by Grace PPPPP
