Gay, who is currently managing editor of the Collegian, will edit the weekly paper beginning with next fall quarter. MildredSeelye was also appointed by the Board as business manager for next year. Seelye, who wasassistant business manager of the Collegian, was also appointed to this position for Spring quarter ofthis' year, to replace Loretta Olsen, who withdrew from school. Gay competed against two othercontestants for the position of editor. He is a'Korean vet who has been copy boy arid reporter on theTacoma News-Tribune, and sole reporter on a small paper which came out in Tacoma while the Tribune was on strike. He is Writer editor this quarter, has been co-sports editor and news editor of theCollegian, and was the editor of his high school paper. Because he is an accelerated student, Gaywill hold junior status at the end of fall quarter. Since none of the candidates met the requirements asstated in the Stylebook of the Collegian, they were waived in all cases and the Board's decision wasmade on qualifications for the job alone. Gay is married and expecting a tax deduction next fall.'Hecompeted with Colleen Sullivan and Jim Simon for the editor's position. Seelye is a second quarterfreshman and was assistant business manager and ad solicitor last quarter for the Collegian. Shewill-be married this summer and will return next fall while her future husband is in the service. Board Has Problem: To Cut Budget Despite High Prices Budget slashing is the current problem of variousdepartments of Western Washington College. Most departments are requesting more money'â€¢â€¢ for gt; the gt; 1953-54 school year as compared to 1952. The reason lies in the higher cost of living andthe, rise of prices. Original budget requests submitted to Mark Hardie, ASB president, have alreadybeen cut by the respective departments. However, more cutting is on the agenda. Members of thebudget committee and the! Board of Control met last night to study the tentative budget plan. The Boardof Control will meet to work on the budget at 4 p. m. next Thursday. Hardie said, "It is hoped the-Department of Directors will approve the budget when work on it is complete. We plan to have it ready by the end of spring quarter."

This has been due, chiefly, to the discovery by certaincongressional committees, that a few educators were proyen, or suspected to be, subversive now, orsubversive gt;t one time This has caused near panic on some, campuses in the. country. A case iseven oh record of one educator refusing an invitation of an organization which has been designated by thegovernment as definitely not subversive. r This could be construed as an indictment against education.That it is subversive? No! That it might be losing its intestinal fortitude! Since ancient Greece, educatorshave stood up f lt;fr what they believed. Socrates drank poison rather than recant his beliefs. We do notsay that it is good to have educatprs who might undermine our democratic system We do say, however,the students of Western Washington cpllege, many of whom will be educators, should resolve that fear will not intimidate us. The cradle of democracy and the custodian of free thought and speech in manycountries were the colleges and universities. In the middle ages educators had no guarantee that theycould say what they wished with impunity. By the panic evidenced of late this seems to be what someeducators believe should be the case.' ";' }. ;. But today, it is not his right, it is; not his privilege, it is theeducator's duty to give his views; to say what he thinks is right. In this way will he be serving his countrybest. Education must5 be dynamic. To be static is to retrogress. If educators hYde their candle ofthought under a basket, afraid someone might see a "color" in it, a great deal will be lost, for, aseducation progresses, so will the country.'..-, \ Today's college students are tomorrow's leaders" is acommon thought. But if these students are instructed by persons who are afraid~to lead, afraid to voice their convictions, what will their quality of leadership be?â€”D.

While sleepily crawling into ''the- old jalopy I could see the sun just coming up over the mountains;It. was -then that I began wondering how Homer had ever convinced me to get up so early for Campusday. Well, there was no use .thinking about it then ^-we were on our way to Whatcom Falls park. â€¢The Skit assembly wasn't sched-iried 'til at least after the sun had come up, but Homer said it would bebetter if we went straight to the park before everyone^ got there. So Spies skipped ' t b0 assembly to;get: out to. JheApa*k,Jfcef lt;jre reyerypne , else. (But I LDiErtne park when people are there.) , - .,:cArriving.- at, t h e ^ a r k we .found it absolutely .deserted, arid. ,, stayed -that \vay.,,for;ise;yera^;hqurssi Finally our friends began ...to .arrive. Coming in,,convertibles, Model. T's, and , onbicycles, they swarmed into the park. Sam and Al wer^ straggling 'wayv behind .the. rest, because jtheyhad decided, to ;W;alk L . ..; :- ^ The morning slipped by andT it was soon, time for lunch. Lunchâ€”everyone was famished! Like a swarm; of locusts t h e y devoured everything in sight. ' After lunch thegames began, starting naturally with the pie eating contest. "Uncle Harry" made his first appearancesince the day he broke his leg at the Homecoming game, and ate more pies than the entire' faculty.During the faculty-student tug-of^- war, Al and Sam finally arrived on the scene. Every one was soexcited to see them that the tug-of - war was completely forgotten. The crowd cheered the two fellowswho came straggling in. I was cheering especially because both played on our baseball team. At lastthe game started. Roger was first at bat. With power like that we easily won the game. Homer said that I was playing very well, but somebody hit the ball to me and things got all fouled up. It WAS unfair ofGeorge to hit it to meâ€” he KNOWS I can't catch. Ah! Campus day ended happily. The students andfaculty hopped into their cars, trucks, wheelbarrows and other means of transportation, and headedfor home. Sam and Al trudged wearily along Lake-way, and Homer and I pushed the eld buggy down thehill, got it started, and chugged noisily back, to Western. â€¢ WESTERN WASHINGTONCOLLEGIAN f ' H t '' gt;,.*". i[J {" i ?d ' ^ '*) " "Since 1899 Member Intercollegiate Press Entered assecond class matter at the post office at Bellingham by virtue of the act of Match 8, 1879. :": Printed; byCox Brothers,.

The election, fiasco of last quarter isstill fresh in our minds and there are minor violations which go unheede'd by the student body in general. I have run across several of these. It is more than a possibility that myriads of them have gone pastwithout detection. The question that comes to the forefront isâ€”"Why?". It is a dynamic questionwhich demands a positive answer and not merely some "explaining away." Is it due to the ineptitude ofour elected representativesâ€” the Board of Control, the president, the vice president? It is my beliefthat we can contribute some of the guilt to' these representatives. They, are not impeccable. ButTfurther assert-that there is a greater weakness, than mere ineptitude on the part of these officers. Thoseof you familiar with government can see it clearly. We aspire to democratic govern^ ment, yet in ourgovernmental .organization here at Western we have branches of government equivalent to our national legislative and executive branches, but where is that third branch so essential to the balance of power and the continual function of a democratic government â€”the judicial branch? We have no such branch, yet the need is a crying need. A manifest need. The past is not a dead past and will not bury itself. Itwill project itself into the future. To obliterate the occurence of last quarter, and the many unheededviolations, I propose that we take into our hands the tools of state and build that branch we lackhereâ€”the judicial branch. For the sake of a continual functioning democratic government, therequired balance of power, and emulation of the state in which we live, serve, and are, I beseech you to join in a crusade for that missing wheel of governmentâ€”the judicial branch. Sincerely, GEORGE H.COLE. Perhaps the answer lies in the in-maturity of people who make that assumption. Sincerely,JEAN LANDAHL.

AWSDefer Picnic It was announced today that the AWS commission picnic which was originally scheduledfor Monday, May 18, has been postponed and no definite date has been set for the picnic. ! ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1953 May 15 - Page 4 ---------- 9 torn By ROGER GROVDAHL Last week on one of the sunshiny days, many students were out tryingout the new game of wisket. This new game was being demonstrated for the first time on- Western'scampus. The game originated in Seattle and several leagues are springing up for wisket players. It isplayed with a baseball and bat but there, the': similarity to the original diamond game ends. Instead ofgloves the fields; use long tennis-like contraptions or wiskets as they are called. The rules are totallydifferent also. The defensive team makes all the points. The whole team, 10 men, bat around and thedefensive-team scores points. A point is obtained when a base is touched 4n gt; front of the runner. Thegame is 'an entirely new idea originating in Seattle. Many main colleges are incorporati n g ^ ;mtheirtPE curriculum: ~~ * . . . - . . Â« - . . * â€¢ â€¢ During, winter quarter there was an gt;all-^tarintramural vs. the Jayvee basketball game.vand-the game aroused much interest and comment. Although it would--be somewhat -more difficult, it would be interesting to have the-best-intramural.tplayersiteam:upto play the local baseball second teamers. Some, arrangements, may- be reached by having threeinnings :of-fastball played andâ€ž then three innings of baseball, or a coin could be fUpped to-see,what type-of game would be played. Another interesting game should, ibe the one between the students and faculty on Campus day. ^Thegamevia an_ annual affair and from past experience affords a fittingclimax-to Campus day activities. * * . * .-r j, ... .

Vikings to Face CPS Loggers^ Icies Over Week-end After playing an easy.schedule in games forseveral times, Western?; swings into a busy week..This afternoon Western takes on the CPS Log?- gers at Battersby field. Tomorrow; the Vikings travel to Seattle to ;meet the University of Washington. NextMonday a practice game will be played With Larson Air Force base. With, the season record justmediocre at best, WWC will be out.to -r-â€”â€”â€” â€” â€”â€”â€”â€”{-take some games to better the searson record. College of Puget Sound; aoes not have a very strong, team, this-year, although it is not apush over. It has played some good ball this season. In the previous meeting with CPS Western tookone close one and dropped another. Western's Vikings should pick up another win tomorrow when theytake on the UW. The University is weak this year, being near the bottom of the standing in its league.It has been beaten several times by teams that Western has beaten. In previous meetings this year,Western has nearly an even record with the Huskies. These two straight games will put a strain on Vik pitchers. It is probable that all chuckers will get a chance. Big Bob Hansen is ready to go again afterthe sore arm he picked up in a game a couple of weeks ago. Next Monday the hot flyers from Larson Air Force base, Moses Lake, invade the Vik's domain for two games. The boys from Larson always putout a good ball team which can give any college team a fight; After Western gets by the busy weekendschedule, it will settle down to a slower pace for the rest of the season. Western Drops Track MeeF To Savages Western Washington dropped its first important track meet to the Eastern WashingtonSavages last Saturday. The meet was held at Cheney on the EWC campus. The Savages racked up84% points to Western's 46% points. Big gun in the attack of EWC was Ron Chadwick who won a totalof five events in the meet. These events were the high jump, broad jump, javelin throw and both thehurdles. Western was a little off and.the main point getters were meeting very stiff competition. The winfor Eastern was its 33rd successive dual meet win. Ken Swalwell, Modris Pederson, and miler JerrySwan picked up a lot of Western's 46% points.

'Straight Line: r HilsRuliinct Although football seems to be far away, on the. little campus,of WWC, many of theJarger-colleges are now concerned with-spring lootball practice. An. extra worry: to -the -coaches now '-. is .the new- substitution rule. This rule makesit quite impossible to use the two platoon system. Viking.,football coach/ Chuck Lappenbusch, was asked- tov comment on. the new rule: and- how it wouldaffect small. colleges,, mainly Western. First he stated.that the small colleges with no springpractices will be handicapped by this new rule, making it necessary for players to *playi both* offenseand defense* He went on gt; to ^ say that underthe modern educational pbil*-* osophy players will have to learn all the offensive parts. This may require longer training tables f or longer -periods -of time.However,- Lappenbusch went on to say,. â€¢ small .colleges using t he Straight- Line defense philosophy will not be .bothered, by the. knowK edge factor and the physical condition must be drilled onpreviously by the- player on his own. Since knowledge and intelligence does not play the sameimportant'part as it did formerly;-the Straight Line teams will be.ready in a week-providingthephysicaliÂ«ondition^ isex-. cellent. Physical condition is not and win not be excellent which will slowdown the game under the new rales; According to Lappy, physical endurance in U.S. society isretrogressing because of the automobiles, the preservatives in, onr foods, ,aadÂ«th,e psychology, ofthe "easy-way-to-win" attitude. "If we are to continue to be the strongest of nations we must-work onimproving the whole human being in our schools andaiot just knowledge, and. intelligence which are now retarded' by circular^ confusion,'' he said. So here we have the views of a very authoritative person,Western's own athletic director, on.the effects and: results of the. new substitution rule. Out of all this itseems that Western -will not^be?bothered lt; lt;as much as some other small schools who do-not usethe Straight Line philosophy. | This week a boy with a very interesting background- was interviewed as sports personality. Modris (Pete) Peterson, Western's star track man; graduated from a Latvian highschool in Europe.. There was no track, at his high school so he ran for the local YMCA team. Therewere a junior and senior team and Pete took' several awards in the junior division. In the junior division he holds the hop, skip, and jump record, high hurdles record, and the 12 pound shot put record. Forwinning the high hurdles he was given an award which he holds aa one of his most prized possessions.He holds three unofficial Latvian records, 220 low hurdles, 220 high hurdles, and the 440 hurdles. Lastfall in Seattle he won a â€¢ cup In -the big northwest meet held therewith so many incidents in his life, Modris had a tough time pieking lt;the: top thrill â€¢ of his- life.: He finally, picked the time when hewon the low^hurdles in the Evergreen conference in 1951. Another of his big lt;- gest thrills came lastweek as Western broke the relay record for the school and won t h e cup.^ Western track will verydecidedly miss good natured Pete when he is graduated. He has been a mainstay on Western's trackand field team for several years. He has won three letters and already has enough points for his big "W"blanket. During his years in track Modris has run the low hurdles; 440 hurdles, 100'yard dash; 220 yarddash, 440 yard dash; broad jump, "and thrown the discus and. shot gt;put. His versatility in sportsshows he is a natural athlete. In his years here he has lost the 440 only twice and the low hurdles nnlythree times. This trait seems to run in the family.

He left Latvia when theRussians* entered because he did hot want to be under Russian dominance. He is majoring in biological science and- teacher education. In Protest It was announced-; by school officials that eight members on: the; staff of EWC's physical education department say they will resign if the athletic director i sretained. The action taken, is against W. B. Reese. All those involved delivered their Qualified letter ofresignation ta the college board of directors meeting held Saturday. At the same time an 84-pagereport having to do with Reese's standing as a student in the graduate school at Eastern waspresented to the board. J. Harold Anderson, .chairman of the board, declined to say if there wasany relation between the two events. - Nearly all the physical education department signed the letter of qualified- resignation. The letter gave no reason-for the action. Included among the faculty membersinvolved was Eastern's head football- coach Abe Poffenroth. Reese made no comment on the incident. / ".- ' â€” â€” O BUSY-SIGNAL The whole world loves a lover, We think they're all divine, But not whenwe discover One on our party linel --Catherine E. Berry.

Durkin, Secretary of Labor for the U. S., has reached Western outlining â€¢ ;varlous jobopportunities for graduating college students. Twelve fields were outlined which need new persons,and which would need college graduates during most of the 195CS. - Secretary Durkin said that there-is a significant shortage of engineers, while the number of engineering graduates has b e e n becomingsmaller. The natural sciences, chemistry, physics, and " the earth sciences, geology, geophysics,meteorology, oceanography, have also jumped sharply in demand for not only experienced people, but also college graduates with just a BA. In describing teaching, Durkin VISION COMFORT DR.INGWERSEN and DR. RITCHIE 207Jfr E. Holly / said that the "demand for elementary schoolteachers is greater for 1953-54 than for 1952-53," while "at the high school level the supply of newlytrained teachers has dropped significantly each year since 1950." The secretary said also that theaverage salary over the United States for all classroom teachers was $3,400. The other fields SecretaryDurkin described as having many openings were as follows: federal civil service, health' professions,business and law^ banking, accounting, and social work.

WWC picked up a lot more points by winning the relay race. The time of this race, broke theschool record' for relay races. Other Western performers piled up points with seconds in some events toget Western a tie for first place. Vik miler, Jerry-: Swan, took second place in the two mile race againstsome tough competition. ' One man entered the meet as an independent and startled many bypicking up more points by himself than several teams entered in the race. This man. was the great trackstar, Reverend Bob Richards.

It was stated that the second chance came after the card.playing had been removed a few months ago when the gameswere being used for' other than recreational purposes. Editor and business manager for the WWCollegian in 1953-54 were elected at the Board meeting. Dave* Gay and Mildred Seelye, respective' ly, were those so designated. (See story page one.) Since no candidates were eligible in the strict sense of theStyle book, the Board moved to waive the requirements in this case so that the positions could be filledfor next year. The letter to the editor appearing in last week's Collegian about book conditions in theStudents' Coop was given heated consideration. A committee composed of Bob Porter, CarolynCrook, Dick Stewart, Howard Critchfield, and one other Student Facilities committee member wasappointed to form policies concerning the ordering and buying back of books. The Board passed amotion to the effect that all Co-op and Lounge personnel who handled food were to be required to take aphysical examination in accordance with the State Board of Health regulations. .The expense forstudents involved will be borne by the Student Lounge fund. A note from Louis Earle, Lounge and Co-opmanager, was read thanking the Board for the ceramic ash try sent to him while he was ill. A requestwas received through the Music department to loan the white dinner jackets for a wedding. The Boardstated that it was not its policy to loan student property for private use. An additional $10 was added tothe $45 appropriated to the Evergreen conference trip to cover expenses, to come from theAdministration budget. It was found that the original $45 did not cover the entire costs. Coach ChuckLappenbusch requested that the Board give him the okay to try to get Willamette UniversitySeptember 26, 1953, for a football game with Western here. He stated that arrangements with UBC andothers would have to be made, but the Board approved the basic plan. Since the regular Board meetingwas scheduled for the afternoon of Campus day, the Board moved to postpone the meeting untilThursday at 4 p. m. Board members were also urged to attend the Budget meeting last night.EarlCompletes Naval School George S. Earl, Seattle, graduated from U. S. Naval school (OCS)Newport, Rhode Island, April 20.

We lay in clouded mood And sang of lofty trees without tops That upheld the edges ofthe sky. As the ponderous notes clamored forth We thumped our feet, and "They remind me of goats,",he said. The notes came bleating forth together As they scattered dotting white over the hill. "Mightygoats they are, pushing stones With their heads, pushing stones and, "^ Rolling mountains to, theedges of the world." We lay in silence and listened to the peaks Crashing in dark stillness. FacultyKeeps Contact Of First-year Tutors An effort on the.part of the faculty of Western Washington College to keep effective contact with all first year teachers is proving successful. The program started with theestablishment of the General Certificate pian in 1951-52.

Forty-five faculty members visited a total of 16(5. beginningteachers. However, a total of 476 persons were seen on the twenty-four trips made to sixteen counties.First year teachers are working in school buildings that run the gamut of possible conditions, according to a report just issued. Some are teaching in practically ideal situations, some in buildings that aredescribed as ordinary and average, and some are in buildings considered to be fire traps, barren, smelly, dirty and crowded. More places have inadequate materials than adequate housing. Most availableinstructional supplies are those classified as audio-visual aids. Least available are art materials, textbooks, music, and maps. The enrollment per room ranges from 18 to 52. Some kindergarten teachershave three shifts and as many as 83 children. At least 25 of the WWC teachers have split rooms orcombination grades. The management of children, how to handle delinquent children, and how to keepchildren quiet, were frequently mentioned by beginning teachers from first grade through junior highschool and in both rural and city schools. The use of the Parent-Teacher conference as a means ofreporting to parents was mentioned most often, but requests for help on the whole matter of parent-teacher relationships were listed.
