We are not in favor of such a drastic move. It is all right for some of those guys who sport a young wheat field with a covey of quail on their phizzes but what about us'ns that write to their home town newspaper when they sprout peach fuzz after a week's steady sprinkling with Sterno, the miracle hair restorer. Anyway it's only 11 days until the gala spring festival date and already the performers in the crew races are getting ready for the watery struggle. At least that is the reason given us for the many cars parked along the Fill these evenings. The Fill is also known as the Furniture Factory estuary. We feel sure we have picked a winner in the pie-eating contest. We are ready to back Norm Dahl, the Seabiscuit, in any size pie. Norm is a graduate of the now defunct Beanery and as such, should give the other contestants a handicap. At the Beanery it was a case of the survival of the fittest and fastest. Norm is the best eater we have seen for lo these many years, both in quantity, speed, and finesse. . SHORT STUFF . . . Let it now be said that Dr. M. F. Cederstrom's son and heir apparent, believes in calling a spade a spade and not a dirty old shovel. For further particulars inquire of the 10 o'clock comp class of the erudite Minnesotan. Walter Baker, the Marietta Maurauder, confides that the Navy is growing very concerned over the Panama Canal zone and adjacent waters. Bake is tentatively slated for training there after he gets through his reserve training at Chicago. F u r t h e r news from Uncle Sam's front informs that Butch Franko, Don Bell, and Lobo Moscrip are safely at, Santa Maria. Don was made a leader of the Northwest cadets on the trip to California. Further news will be forthcoming next week, we keep telling ourself. Datelmi e Friday, May 2 AWS commencement tea. WRA Week-end trip begins.

XL—NO. 28 Western Washington College of Education, Bellingharri, Washington Friday, May 2, 1941 Norse Sail Again; Islands Beware Annual Men's Club Cruise Dated for Sunday Morning. 75 to Participate on Trip As the Sea Scout ships, Activian and Legionnaire, put out of Belling - ham harbor Sunday morning, the annual Norsemen's cruise will get underway. According to Brian Rob-son, the boats are to leave the Municipal dock at 7:30 a. m. and will sail among the San Juan islands for the day, stopping at Sucia, Orcas, and Sinclair. As a help for students riot knowing the location of the dock, a party is to be organized at Edward's hall at 7 a. m. "Approximately 75 WWC students are to participate in this cruise, which Robson feels will be one of the most successful affairs the Norsemen have staged. The party will make a stop at Sucia island for lunch and from there will move on to Deer harbor at Orcas island. Last stop before hitting the Bellingham waterway at 10 p. m. will be Sinclair island. Those planning the cruise stress the fact that each member of the group should bring both lunch and dinner as well as cups and spoons. Coffee will be served by the Norsemen. Other suggestions offered by the committee in charge warn students to wear soft soled shoes and take heed of sunburn. In commenting on the cruise, Robson said, "Weil do quite a bit of singing and for this I would advise purchase of a copy of "Trail Tunes." They're on sale at the Research bureau for 10 cents a copy. I'm telling you this will be a good cruise, the best yet." Klipsun Staff Plans Color Schemes At a Klipsun staff meeting held last week, decisions were made as to the colors to be used throughout the book. The color of the end sheet was selected to harmonize with the cover. Golf, tennis, and track pictures were taken this week along with a series of pictures for the feature page. About 30 students (who are still wondering what it's all about) are being featured instead of the usual one or two who are designated as the most popular. Editor Shirlee Cratsenberg reports that the KUpsun is being printed now but that it is too soon to announce the date of release. Al Salisbury of the Western Engraving company spent last Friday afternoon with members of the staff discussng the 1941 Klipsun and possibilities for the 1942 book. TERMINAL EXAMS COME XfeAIN Terminal examinations will be continued Monday and Tuesday, May 5 and 6.

Miss Jean Boyle, of Harborview hospital, spoke on "Opportunities in the Nursing Field" and Miss Gwen Rees on the topic, "Life of the Student Nurse." • NRCS Group Meets At Sedro Woolley John Nordmark of the Washington State Planning council, will speak to the members of the Northwest Regional Curriculum Study group at their last meeting of this school year Saturday, May 3, at the Sedro-Woolley Central grade school. The topic of the address will be "The Community Survey and Its Relation to Modern Education," The speech will be based largely upon the Sedro-Woolley-Burlington survey to be made this summer under sponsorship of the State Planning council and the University of Washington workshop. The remainder of the meeting, to be conducted by Dr. Paul R. Grim, ninth grade WWC Campus school supervisor and president of the study group, will consist of group discussions and possibly the election of Study-Group officers. Casa Lomans Give In Burlington Booked to come to the new $20,000 Roller frolic at Burlington for the grand opening Saturday, May 10, is Glen Gray and his Casa Loma orchestra. Gray is being brought to Burlington through the management of the Music Corporation of America. Musicians from jazz instrumentalists up to and including symphony men marvel at the band's tecfihical ability, its ensemble work, and the virtuosity of its soloists. The general public likes it not only for these features but because it is "commercial" without being "corny." WRA PLAY DAY MAY 10 High School girls from Whatcom and Skagit counties will be guests of the WRA at the annual Play day to be held May 10. The girls will be entertained during thei day with games and group discussions. Campus Day Dance Held as Usual Beards to be Grown, Planted During 5-Day Interim—Uh! As the 11 intervening days between today and Campus day dwindle away, two events have definitely been decided upon. An abbreviated, fiye-day beard-growing. contest will be held startm'gJ;Friday, May 9, and ending Campus day, May 13. The Campus day dance will be held the evening of yCampus day instead of the proposed Monday night before. Otherwise, the spring quarter highlight, with all its traditional fun, will be much the same as in past years.:' Cash prize contests will, feature part of the day. A $1 pftze each for the longest, reddest, and fanciest beard will be the incentive for bewhiskered WWC malfs in the Whiskereeno contest. Two winners, a boy and a girl, will be selected at Lakewobd in the( preliminary pie-eating contest. These two champions will battle in the evening assembly for a $1 first prize with 75 cents going to the loser. The third, and perhaps most aesthetic affair will be the men's bathing beauty contest. The male contestants, properly attired in swimming suits, will vie .for a $1 first prize. The second most "beautiful male" will receive 50pcents. The judges for these} Campus day contests have been tentatively announced as being female faculty members. -i Establishing a precedent^ the assembly committee is offering $2.50 first prize for the best skit in the evening assembly. All . .club and house presidents are urg d to get their skits ready for rehearsals the first part of next week: :| DRAMA COMMITTEE flEADS SELECTED BY GLENNf At the Drama club mee|irig April 29, the following committee was selected by Paul Glenn, ^president: campus assembly progrargi, Ed Olson, chairman; Mary 'Axjjjji; Pearson, Jean Tedford, and Evely|i Pierson.

It's been a long-standing dream of ours, to get an All-American rating for the Collegian. And now that the dream is a reality, we just can't cope with the bubbling feeling. To Bill Ridder, who laid the groundwork, to DeLayne Walton whose tireless energy ferreted out mistakes, to Eric, Jerry, Irene, Charley, Phil, and Toola, who worked endlessly, to the swell staffs this year, to' Art, Walt, Dick, Lil, Cam, and Shorty of the print shop, to youse great students who make the Collegian possible, and to Felix and his ad staff, we're eternally grateful. Special credit is deserved by Mrs. Ruth A. Burnet, our adviser. Doggone it all, we're proud of you. Are the Laborers Rats Now? We Don't Think So! Is American labor composed of human beings' welded info a group or are they a dangerous menace to civilization? We travel under the impression that labor is composed of fellow- Americans but recent reports from the House "of Representatives, cartoons in papers, and other influential sources, would lead one to think that labor is a dangerous beast, fit only for electrocution and throttling altogether. Most of our parents belong to the laboring class and are composed of the same stuff as workingmen anywhere. Would you condemn your father to the electric chair or to complete abeyance to his employer? We are not condoning all strikes, yet we refuse to condemn them. The right of labor to organize and strike is still one of democracy's strongholds.

A talk with the guardian of the greens revealed that grass will soon grace the plot south of the Library. The belated sprinkling system connections were installed last Tuesday and Dack looks for germination by the end of this week. With rain last Saturday and Monday nights paving the way, he feels there is still a chance to have grass high enough to mow within six weeks, now that sprinkling, is possible.. At the latest it will jte well up by%the end of the quarter if nature will co-operate. California Sunshine Ain't So Hot Memorandum re: the recent unusual weather: California Chamber of Commerce has been doing a lot of complaining lately of the "Washington weather" they have been having. This is a complaint against what CCofC's euphimistically call California weather —• although no tourist has ever been able to be in California except when they were having unusual amounts of dew. The main objection to long periods of sunshiny days and starry nights is that the level of conversation is lowered to a serious degree. Take, for instance, the case of a young gentleman and the light of his life who are parked on Sehome hill. As they gaze out over the smoke-smudged town, she lowers her head to his shoulder. He murmurs. "Lovely weather, isn't it." She dreamily answers, "Yes." And there the conversation ends. There is nothing more to be said. She can't say it looks like rain because it doesn't. He can't reply that he thinks the clouds will go away because' there aren't any. Consequently the two little dears lapse into silence and spend the evening twiddling their thumbs. And then there are the poor agriculturists like George Dack who have done their spring planting in the simple faith that just because there always has been lots of rain in April there always will be. Now there is no rain and there are no growing things. There is a story going around about a farmer who has unlimbered his gun with the intention of shooting the (40 words censored here) Japanese for changing their current just so his radishes "wouldn't come up on schedule. -; • :-^r'By"Mariiyri- Manuel •;'. gt;.'

She even went so far as to promise good snow sliding and a neat eight-mile hike to the cabin. She also gloated because the Memorial day holiday gives us an earlier start. Tennis Complaint This reporter is sore, and we mean sore! We turned out for tennis for the first time last week. And are we sore. We hit the ball over the fence more than anyone else there. Why don't, some more of you neophyte tennis players come out on Friday afternoons and have a try at learning the fine old game? Virginia Kreuger, tennis manager, promises that anyone can learn.

The Gladiators had previously handed the St. Martin Rangers a worse drubbing than the Viks dished out a few days ago. As it was, the Lappenbusch men might have taken the first doubles match for a clean sweep but for a two and one-half hour wait between the singles and doubles match for- Glenn and Pettyjohn. Now that most of the not-so-confident prospective racquet lettermen have made their letters, theoretically at least, we may see the ladder switch about a bit. One quick glance at the crystal sphere assures a win for the Wildcats from the Blue and White at Ellensburg this week-end. Remember, only one of the Knox species is out of school. McLaughlin's trial toss of 40 feet, 10 inches, proved to be the best for. C P S and good for five points in the week-end meet. Carver's bundle of hope, Ed Fleming, failed to hit his practice throw distances while Lawrence Munizza displayed possibilities with a third place. Strange as it seems, the closest first place position to call for the day occurred in the 880-yard run when the Parkland man tipped the tape a couple of inches ahead of Baby Dahl, high point getter for the locals with a first and two seconds. The times, as a whole, for the cinder opener were comparable to a good high school meet. If you think I'm kidding, check the box scores with a few of the events in the high school relay carnival held last week with Whatcom, Skagit and Snohomish county schools participating. The Southern trio in the mile event boxed Cale Campbell very effectively in the sprint turn. Next time, Campbell is going to have Johnny Lund pace him and beat off boxers and admirers alike. An interesting little mural argument, that may be put to a vole, arose the other day when a partial strip-tease came off on the softball diamond. Firebug Hollingsworth demanded that Alick Mitchell peel his spike-laden track shoes for the common good; whereby, Mitch demanded that everyone take off his shoes if Mitch had to do so. Ump Healy then asked for a voluntary Gypsy Rose Lee on the tootsies so encased with the spiked variety. After a half a dozen of the fellows had removed their shoes and played ball on blistering heels for a while, they began to ask why cleats weren't allowed. To make a short story longer, I have listed Joe Moses's reasons why cleats should be allowed and my reasons why cleats should not be allowed. As it happens, Joe is in favor of barbed shoes while I am not. MOSES'S: Although I don't think that track shoes should be permitted, I do believe thai the league would be faster if cleats were permitted with the field in its present condition. The wearing of cleats Would be optional to those players who cared to purchase or borrow them. MINE: The circuit is still classified as an intramural league. A good portion of the fellows would not be able to obtain a pair of these special shoes. Under these conditions, playing opportunities would be unequal although intramural departments emphasize that equipment is the same for all participants. I still have a couple of scars as reminders of cleat shoes so I guess that I am just prejudiced. It's up to you men of the softball league to decide upon this trivial matter by voting when the issue comes up.
