•Don't Jbe Shy, Young Ladies. Those Men Are Dying to be Asked! e c ampus c rier It Won't Be Long Now Until Exams — and Christmas WASHINGTON STATE NORMAL SCHOOL Vol. No. 10 ELLENSBURG, WASHINGTON, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 3, 1936 No. 9 Mid-Winter Snowball To Feature Novel Arrangements Show Down —Dick Ross HERALDING MASKERS! JESTERS! WAR A question which occupies a very prbmirieiit section of the grandstand of public opinion is whether or not we are going to become entangled in foreign wars in the near future. It is a question which is exceed­ ingly difficult to answer, because no one knows the intentions of the other natione well enough to be able to qualify his answer as anything more than a statement of personal opinion. Most of the determining motives that would decide for or against war are probably unknown to everyone but the men who originated the plans. But the plainly visible details of the nations' feelings may be construed, with the aid of some wishful guess­ ing, to be pointing in some definate direction. AMERICA In no two countries is the situation exactly the same. The United States, as far as aggression is concerned, has perhaps the most easily discernable feeling about war. We are definitely against war, from the president down to the unemployed. Even if the president' did desire war, which he most certainly does not, it would be rather difficult for him to bring it about. Any move on his part that Would suggest, even remotely, war as a result would be harangued out of existence by his political oppo­ nents, and definite machinery would be Set up that wbuld insure our non- partidipation ' in future war. (This is assuming,, of course, that war pro­ paganda in tTie press would be cen­ sored as a result of the experience the government had with it in the last war.) ENGLAND In England a little different feeling is present. Given the same conditions, it is perhaps safe to say that England would be drawn into war before we would. As a rule the English people are against war, but they seem to believe that England is to see to the safety of several other nations besides their own. As a re­ sult of this ageing habit, they are a little more susceptible to war than we are. GERMANY Germany, under Adolf Hitler, is armed to the teeth, and the people are glad of it. One of the reasons, though, that so much attention is centered on Germary is because she cast off the restrictions placed upon her as the result of the treaties she had to enter into after being defeated in the World War. The main reason she gave for the repudiation of the treaties was a fear of Russia. All we can do is to hope that she doesn't bring this "fear" to a climax by in­ vading Poland, Czechoslovakia, or Russia. ITALY Italy is in the same nut shell as Germany, and has proved her tend­ ency to be towards war by defying everyone, and stepping in and taking Ethiopia despite the futile protests of the League of Nations and Eng land. RUSSIA Russia has on paper the greatest military machine in the world. The Russians are making much progress in all lines of activity. Because they have so much territory now which is not under their close supervision, it makes it difficult to see why they would want more. But other coun tries might want part of it. FRANCE France is apparently terrified at Mr. Hitler's triek-and-extra-l'ancy ways of rearming. France is build­ ing up its air forces because it real­ izes that its intricate system of underground fortifications would be very ineffective against invasion by air. ^.gainst such a war she has military allies in the form of the Little Entente, which includes Ru­ mania, Czechoslovakia, and Yugo­ slavia. They also have a pact with Russia, and are hanging tightly onto the coattails of the League of Na­ tions. SPAIN In Spain, as everyone has heard repeatedly, the civil war has brought in lots of outside interest which .might eventually involve more nations than one. It all sums up to the conclusion that a definite answer is impossible. It shows, however, that should two ma­ jor powers go to war, there is likely to be another world war because of the many strings the world has tied around itself. MASKERS AND JESTERS is the name of an entirely new campus or­ ganization to be started to replace the old Little Art Theater Guild, accord­ ing to John Kerby, A. S. represen­ tative for drama on the newly-formed Entertainment Council. MASKERS AND JESTERS will be composed of two groups but with the one aim: To present to the Student Body the best dramatics possible. According to the charter being proposed by John Kerby, the first group, THE MASKERS, will be com­ posed of those who have done out­ standing work in the production of plays. Charter members of this group will be chosen December 15 from those who have done outstand­ ing work in the past. This group will form the nucleus around which the club will be built. THE JESTERS will be composed of all those students who participate as members of crews" for technical, actors and directors. Membership to THE JESTERS will be automatic, business, or publicity work, or as According to the proposal, THE MASKERS will nominate outstand­ ing members of THE JESTERS be­ fore each play, and at a party after each play will put red- masks on those who have'.-been chosen- to be Maskers. Those that are at present eligible to become charter members of the. MASKERS AND JESTERS for. their work in the past are: Best, Marciai Epp, Woodrow - • Gilmore, James Kerby, John , - Kinney, Wendell Mattox, Herbert . Mero, Jack Reynolds, Madeline Robertson, Eddie ^ Siegal, Elouise Smoke, Joe Stillwell, Thelma T'rainor, Charles Wellenbrock, Ernie Tuesday evening, December 15, at 8 p. m. sharp, those listed who desire to become charter members will meet in the Little Theater and vote on the proposed charter. Those listed who do not attend that meeting will auto­ matically become JESTERS and must be advanced to MASKERS by the means decided upon. DR m JOTEPHP.ANIDNEY1 95, HAS WRITTEN 9 BOOK?

TWO EXCELLENT ASSEMBLIES TO ENTERTAIN A. S. Two noteworthy assemblies are soon to be given. On December 8 Miss Wentworth is to be featured. Miss Wentworth will present films on the subject, "The Dance." Tina Flade to Appear Here On December 10 Tina Flade, dancer, appears on the student entertainment program. Miss Flade was born in Dresden and has a background rich in achievement. She dances only her own compositions. Miss Flade has had an interesting career. Toured Europe She toured Europe as a member of Miss Mary Wigman's famous dance group. Following this there wjere several seasons of solo work in the theater and then she taught in the Wigman School in Dresden. Eva Le Galliene brought Miss Flade to New York to appear in her theater and other New York recitals followed, with brilliant success. Eminent in Field Miss Flade's work is colored by these qualities — beauty, technical sureness, originality, and imagina­ tion. These qualities have given her a position of genuine eminence in her •field. Miss Flade has a fragile love­ liness without which some of her best work would 'lose a part of its poig­ nancy. •Students are urged to take advan­ tage of these two excellent programs.

BECK WRITES FAVORED ARTICLE Science Booklet Accepts "Spruce in the Western Miocene" A musical program presented by members of the student body was given at an assembly Tuesday, De­ cember 1. The String Ensemble, directed by Mr. Pyle, played three numbers^. Betty Browne, accompanied by Katherine Leitch, sang, and Peggy Radcliffe, another talented freshman, gave a piano solo. 'Her selection was Percy Grainger's "Country Dance." Last on the program was the A Cappella Choir, under the direction of Mr. Snyder. The choir sang five songs, among which were "The Night­ ingale," "Katherine's Wedding Day," and '"'The Cherubim Song." Charles S. Hendershot, a law stu­ dent at Ohio State University, ex­ pects to live in a 16-foot trailer with his wife and dog for the next three years. CONSTRUCTIVE ART WORK BEING DONE The Art Club of the W. S. N. S. under the advisorship of Miss John­ son and Mr. Hogue onet Tuesday, No­ vember 17, in the Industrial Arts room. The meeting was devoted to the making of dry point etchings on zinc and celluloid plates, which were then printed en a makeshift press. Apples and Fudge Served The program committee composed of Bill Carr, Marian Bowers, and Florence Massouras planned the meet­ ing and served the" members with ap­ ples and fudge. Mr. George F. Beck, of the Science department has an article published in the Northwest Science booklet for November. Mr. Beck interestingly writes on "Spruce in the Western Miocene." Briefly, Mr. Beck summarizes his article thus: "Evidence gathered in the petrified forest of Central Washington is con­ clusive that the spruce was a con­ spicuous member of low altitude low­ land and swamp forest in Yakima time? With it occurred dominant genera now characteristic of the At-] coming ever lantic section of North America and a wide range of a subdominant types now found elsewhere in the Northern Hemisphere. It is likely that the spruce flourished in areas outside of the Yakima region and throughout a large portion of Tertiary , time." Now an event of the past, the Homecoming celebration is still be­ ing spoken of as the finest in the his­ tory of the school. Alumni, faculty, and students all report one of the most enjoyable occasions ever at­ tended. Stunt Night Fun Stunt night went off with a bang —the auditorium so crowded that there were not nearly enough seats for all. This was an unfortunate occurrence, but the audience was in a fine humor and the stunts went by with a. zip. At the banquet on Satur­ day night it was announced that Sue Lombard had won first prize on their stunt—•-a clever, miniature 'musical -comedy, originated and directed by Roberta Epperson. Win Game - On Saturday there -was of course the • game—:the final score being of .great satisfaction and joy to every­ one. - There is no doubt that the game helped furnish the hilarious spirit which permeated all the other events of the day. Banquet Enjoyable At 6 came the banquet, presented an unusually attractive manner. Girls assisting Miss Buhrson in run­ ning the dining hall daily were dress­ ed in charming aprons and served the fine dinner piping hot. President McConnell Speaker Kenneth Bowers, A. S. president, was toastmaster on this occasion. Dr. McConnell spoke briefly but earnestly on "his dreams"—many of which have come true and some which have yet to materialize. He left the banquet- eers laughing heartily over the stories he told about three prominent women on the Campus. . Nick Addresses Squad The toastmaster next called on Coach Nicholson who spoke a tribute to the fine squad he worked with this year, and to the pep shown by the • students. Herb Mattox, chairman of the Homecoming affair, called on several of the football squad, most of whom spoke very, very briefly, the one exception being Joe Smoke who related one of his typical tales and as a consequence left a very merry audience. Sue and Kamola Win The stunt night and sign contest winners were announced also. Fpr stunts, Sue Lombard was first, with W. A. A. and Munson hall receiving honorable mention. Kamola hall won the sign contest. Jimmy Smith, yell king, commented on the "swell pep and turnouts" and awarded the Pep Pennant to the Off-Campus organi­ zation which has shown a great deal of spirit. Dance Gay * At the dance which followed the banquet, everyone had a fine time. The student pavilion was decorated very gaily with football pennants, silhouetted football players, balloons, and streamers. The Off-Campus club supervised all the decorations and door favors. Wendall Kinney's oi-- chestra played. Thirsty dancers were served punch during the dance. Tribute to Chairman Altogether, it was the finest Home- and a great deal of Entirely different, novel, and uni­ que are the features of this year's midwinter ball. The decoration com­ mittee under Kappy Riggs advanced numerous clever and attractive ideas which promise to make the gym a vestiable fairyland. It will be made yet more enchanting by the music of Wendall Kinney and his orchestra. This Saturday Night This affair is to be held December 5 in the new gym and is one of the few toalo formals sponsored by the school. Drum Effects Programs Clever programs carrying out a toyvdrum effect have been designed by a committee under the direction of Mona Smith. Committees Busy All of the committees appointed by the. Women's League have been very busy during, th past month, and prom­ ise students a really super '36 Snow­ ball. All they ask is that you turn out and prove it for yourself. Other chairmen who deserve credit for their work 'include: Kathleen Coventon, music Elsie Graber, punch Eva Lusby, invitations Marjorie Al­ len, patron and patroness Olive Rut- ter, orchestra stand Virginia Weath- erford, door and Beatrice Eschbach, punch booth stand. Dixie Graham and Kappy Riggs in Charge Dixie Graham, president of the Women's League and Kappy Riggs, are in charge of all committees. With cooperation from the student body, the Women's League will assure everyone a grand time at their big­ gest school dance—the Snowball. Remember—Saturday night in the new gym.

Timid Girls Need Speech Course For Courage Before Asking Boys To Tolo Oh. just to be a little fly on the 1 or just anyplace, over here at Sue— ceiling round about now, to see how J or even at Kamola (if they have Munson really reacts to the ap-( flies?) You'd be surprised at the proaching annual Snowball. Thei*e's i number of inhibited urges there are no way to get a statement that would j running about loose, that cornered, be 100 per cent fact because a check might develop into a very fine date. v.'ould probably reveal nonchalant in difference on the part of every last male of you and that couldn't pos­ sibly be true. When you gentlemen get together don't you ever talk over the date fate has sent you—(date, fate—purely chance?) Or. on the other hand how would you like to be a fly on the ceiling, All that is needed over this way is a comprehensive course in self-expres- sion. It would be nice, for the first time in local history, to hear the masculine side of it. If such an article ever comes to light it will be after the lovely party and absolutely safe for you. How about a confession? Boston, Bass. — (ACP)—If your food doesn't taste the way you think it should, don't blame it entirely on the cooking. You may be "taste- blind." In a survey conducted by William C. Boyd and Lyle G. Boyd of Boston University School of Medicine, it was found that Welshmen are more fre­ quently "taste-blind" than men of other nationalities. Welsh women have taste that is only slightly better than their brothers. The doctors made the tests with a complex organic substance known as phenyl-thio-varbamide, which is ex­ ceedingly bitter to those who have normal taste. If the eater doesn't make a wry face, he is definitely "taste-blind." Activities of Associated Students of the University of California last year showed a net profit of $159,- 872.02. A series of speech activities began in the Normal School Little Theater last week. These activities included talks on good speech, competitive speaking, and debating. Participants were students from the Normal School Fundamentals of Speech Course. A speech competition to select the best speakers from the class will be held Wednesday, December 9, at 7:30 p. m. The 12 speakers who have rated highest during six weeks of speaking in the Fundamentals Course will give ten minute talks in a public competition. The best speakers will be chosen by a group of 10 graders who are also from the Fundamentals Course. These 12 speakers are: Ruth Black, Mrs. Balyeat, Betty Browne, Ruth Eldredge, Roberta Epperson, Norma Erickson, Irvin Gattiker, Mary Kiser, Marie Lusby, James Pinckard, Olive Rutter, and Loyce Swanson. Those interested are welcome and may attend if they wish. It is to be held in the Little Theater. The first Catholic college in the United States was opened in 1677 at Newton, Maryland. «• : '-V v • ). . •" -• .. •. .• : • • .y.:: -v .... /••••• v:2\vV»-,A- • t • • •', ••:.'-. :V :'• •:' -0:^: - '•' :7-':.y-i- 'V.: THE CAMPUS CRIER c Ihe Campus Crier 1936 Member 1937 (Associated GoUefiiate Press Distributors of Colle6iate Digest . _ "•-' - .^,i .„_ WEEKLY BY THE ASSOCIATED STUDENTS of the WASHINGTON STATE NORMAL SCHOOL COLLEGE OP EDUCATION Entered as second class matter at the post office at Ellensburg, Washington Telephone Advertising and News to Main 84 ' Alumni, Three Quarters, $1.00 Editor ......Madeline Reynolds Assistant Editor .......„...i...u.,„. ..JMerrill, Ellis Sports Editor . ..... ...„L....Fabio Cappa Feature Editor : .. ...*:.............Eleanor Freeman Business Manager James Merryman Columnists—Annabel Black, Dick Ross, Charles.

By the word optimist, I mean the per­ son who is always cheerful and who is always trying to cheer someone else. These optimists , seem unnatural to me. I don't see how they ever get any fun out of life. I should thirik every day would be awfully long if you were always looking for some­ thing bright in the dark day. When I get up in the morning on the wrong side of bed, I hate to have some Pollyana tell me what a gorgeeus day it is. I don't thing it is a gorgeous day and when I say it looks very cold, it makes me feel very furious to have the cheery optimist say: "Look! the sun is coming out!" I always want to start an argu­ ment then that the sun isn't coming out when I can see it coming out myself. If the weather is bad, I want to say the weather is bad. I like to think the weather is very disagreeable. When Friday the thirteenth comes along, I like to think of all the things that could happen. Probably my shoe string will break when I am rushing to get ready for class. While I am try­ ing to find my extra pair of shoe laces in one of my drawers, I will probably catch my stocking on that rough place on the table leg. We will probably have a surprise test} in class and I will probably fail. I'll get a slip from the bank that I've overdrawn my account. Naturally, all these things are just probable and when they don't occur, I fell very surprised and happy. In this way, every day will be a surprise for me, but how can the optimist be surprised when he thought he would have better luck than he possibly could have. I suppose there is at least one optimist in every group of people. I usually think there is neither reason nor logic in their thinking. This week the drain in the showers was plugged. All the girls in that part of the hall had to go to the next floor's showers to take their morning bath. Just at the time when we were enjoying ourself the most by feeling the worst, some bright person said: "Isn't it lucky that some girls took their showers last night?" There really was no reason for that remark and it made no one feel any better. To me, optimism is just one way of fooling yourself. I don't think you really believe the best will happen, but you want to believe it and so you say the cheery little thoughts that occur to you., • v. , '' '• ' —H. S. - • THERE IS NO PLACE LIKE HOME The festivities during the Home­ coming week end left us with many memories and impressions. Everyone enjoyed the homecoming attitude, the thrilling ball game, the stunt night, the banquet, and the dance. The Homecoming committees and the gen­ eral chairman, Herb Mattox, and all others who helped to make the affair a success deserve our compliments and our appreciation. For a few, grads and undergrads alike, a more unpleasant impression remained in the form of a "hangover." Homecoming takes an unsavory sig­ nificance when we are forced to ad­ mit that for some "home" seems to be the place where they can forget that they are supposerly educated and cultured ladies and gentlemen and so have an excuse to make themselves as asinine as possible. 'Such individ­ uals deserve our pity but certainly none of our respect or sympathy. Let us hope that our school is not judged by the impressions which they make. —Merrill Ellis. LOOKED FOR -AND FOUND Regarding Ibsen's LADY FROM THE SEA not a great deal of in­ formation has been given forth by James Gilmore, the student director as to its production, date or complete cast. However, knowing as we do that those chosen have their lines well in hand and parts of the stage business learned it should {not be long before ft is whipped into shape for its opening night. Ibsen, long noted for the masterly portrayal of people in his plays, wrote this drama, along with many other romances in the early: part of his career . , . LADY FfiOM THE SEA is over-abundant in mysticism and has some very interesting women's roles, not to speak of the role of ther Stranger who represents the material .side of the strange lure the :sea, has for Ellida, the-title role,.'As it-'is to be given with very little ehange in scenery, the emphasis will be laid on the characterization, by the able cast chosen ... Especially timely is the casting and choice of O'Neill's THE EMPEROR JONES produced by Mero and star­ ring Nate Porter, which will be given during the year as a part of the dra­ matic fare of the Student body. * * * * Of note at the Stunt night was that classis of the ages, Merrymhn's "TEN TIGHTS IN A BAR ROOM" or "WHO STOLE THEM THAR DIA­ MONDS," or miE (TWELFTH NITE." Starring Minnie Phillpouts and Desperate Desmondania who wowed the house and had to take repeated curtain calls from the riot­ ing audience. This epic drama is certaiii to go down in history—in fact, down so far it will never be revived. • • «• * Sue of course came forth with an­ other charming dance skit that show­ ed good directing and a well thought out proceedure . . . winning first. • • • » Mero and Epperson, turned in a clever entertainment that ..aided ma­ terially in making this Stunt night routine being A PITCHER FROM one of the best ever.

It not only showed hard work but was in every phase far su­ perior in sheer dramatic appeal to anything ever given by the students here on the Campus, at either Home­ coming or Press Club Stunt Nite . . . Hard lines, gals. * * * * ELIZABETH THE QUEEN will be postponed until Friday, January 22, so that it may be given in the new auditorium, which has been unavoid­ ably delayed in construction . . . How­ ever this delay will only whet our appetites a bit keener and will also put the acting on a much finer level. # » * * Not an "I told you so," but if you remember, Warren Kidder was given odds to "place and show" in this year's fare. As a fine beginning on his Dramatics Major he is showing up well in his role as the tutor of the fair damsels in LADY FROM THE SEA . . . while "Captain of the Queen's Guard" * * • * "Battling" James Burke, the erst- who does right by our little "Nell," rates high in dramatic circles for his realistic presentation of dynamic roles. Over At Sue Homecoming and Thanksgiving are how written, talked of, and thought of in the past tense, despite the fact that these words constituted the main topic of conversation for at least two weeks. Now the girls are talking about Christmas, which seems to be "just around the corner." * * * * If the statement "better late than never" is true, then it is not too late to thank Roberta Epperson for the splendid skit and performance which won first prize at Stunt Night. The girls are mighty proud of her and she should be congratulated, as well as the girls who were in the skit. # * * * Thanksgiving took most of the girls away from the dormitory. The girls traveled to all parts of the state —including Yakima, Cashmere, Evet- ett, Chehalis, Hoquiam, and other points. A few remained over. Those who stayed were Joyce Brockerman, Hedwig Mayr, Trenna Vice, Ethel Karvonen, Ruth Black, Adriana Kempkes, Karla Mogensen, and Mary Beth Riser. These eight girls re­ ported that they had a very good time. • » • * day was served to 24 people in the dining hall at 1 o'clock. It was ex­ actly like the dinner served on the Tuesday before Thanksgiving. Dante Cappa was a dinner guest on that day. He told the students something of his school. He remarked that he had 60 pupils in the sixth, seventh, and eighth grades, at lone, which is about one hundred miles north of Spokane. Dante not only teaches, but super­ vises the playground, and has a Boy Scout troop. When asked what he did with his spare time he answered "sleep!" • * * * The "highlight" of the Thanksgiv­ ing dinner was the plant which was presented to Mrs. Hart, Kamola's new housemother, in honor of her birth­ day. The plant, which was presented by Mrs. Lewis, was a gift from all the students in the three domitories who remained over during the vaca­ tion. * * * * The girls who remained over wish to thank Miss Mary Simpson, Miss Jennie Moore, Dr. and Mrs. E. E. Samuelson, and Miss Amanda Hebler for their thoughtfulness and kind­ ness which was extended to them. The girls certainly appreciated it, and the least * that can be said is j "thank you" which the girls are say- Indian and Negro Cooks For Fine Thanksgiving Sacajawea and a negro cooked the first TTianksgiving dinner in Wash­ ington! It was not a turkey feast, but a fish and pheasant affair prepared for Lewis and Clark 131 years ago on the bank of the Columbia river in what is now Cowlitz county, Novem­ ber 5, 1805, according to information gathered by a field writer on the American Guide, a federal writers' project. The "bird woman" guide for the expedition, assisted by,, her colored "bus boy," set before the in­ trepid American explorers a bounti­ ful table befitting the occasion. But it was to be a long time after that before Washington officially observed Thanksgiving as a holiday, which was first proclaimed 76 years ago by Acting Governor Henry M. McGill, four years before President Abraham Lincoln issued the first presidential proclamation fixing Thanksgiving as a national holiday on the fourth or last Thursday in November. This first official Thanksgiving was observed by many pioneers throughout the territory, but the idea was new to most of the population and did not become generally accepted as a holiday until years later. As turkey was not a native of this sec­ tion of the country, the pioneers re­ sorted to all forms of wild game as the main item on their Thanksgiving menus. DINING HALL Before going to their homes for Thanksgiving, the students in the din­ ing hall were given a special holiday dinner. Tuesday night every one ap­ peared for dinner and left afterwards in a gala mood and with the satisfied feeling which usually follows such an occasion. Dr. and Mrs. McConnell were guests that evening in the can­ dle-lit dining room, and enjoyed tur­ key, cranberries, and pumpkin pie with the students. * * * * The 18 people who remained in- the dormitories during vacation report an unusually good time. They say that the Thanksgiving dinner served Thursday noon was even better than the first one, although there were fewer to eat it. An unexpected guest was Dante Cappa, who was received enthusiastically by his old friends. Dante is now teaching at lone, and when asked by Mrs Rairiey, gave a short talk about his' work there. Mrs. Hart, housemother of Kamola Hall, has her birthday on Thanksgiv­ ing and was greatly surprised to find that her secret had been discovered by the girls of the two dormitories. After dinner she received their gift of a lovely plant, which was presented to her by Mrs. Lewis. * * * * The girls who worked in the kit­ chen during vacation are enthusiastic in their praise of an able masculine helper, Kenny Artz, v^ho it seems is not above putting on an apron and washing dishes. Can it be possible that he saw the advantage of dis­ playing his domestic talents to im­ press a certain girl?

Why leave the nice things about people to say after they are dead? I thought of this one night and the result was the two tributes to two living persons on the campus—per­ haps you, too, know them. DO YOU KNOW THEM Number one. We think her very fine. I think perhaps we would let her walk on us if she would. She gives us her very best—and let's us see every side of her. We find her to be very human- so human that we more than work for her rather than have her disap­ pointed in us. We feel that we can go and talk to her of our problems without taking her time. She is not afraid to scold us, yet she gives us a full measure of praise when we earn it. She has the keenest sense of humor I've ever seen and looks on the sunny side and tries to make us look on that side too. We think her fine and pay tribute to her fineness. Number two. She hides her feelings behind a wall and in doing so covers up to many people the humanness of her. But reach behind that wall and you will find pure gold and a sympth unbounded. She watches quite a while before she stretches out her hand, but when she does you (feel that hand worth earning. Few will ever understand her, few will know her well, but all will leave her with a part of her tucked away with their hearts, and the few who really know her will lay down their lives for her if she asked.

Beahrs.. a 22-year-old student at the University of Cali­ fornia, performs sleight of hand magic to pay for his schooling. For over five years he has been snatching cooked eggs out of the air, pulling rabbits out of hats, and slip­ ping out of handcuffs—before audi­ ences, of course. He spends his summers baffling' Alaskan theater-goers with his "quicker-than-the-eye" tricks. Eski­ mos and Indians have conferred upon him the coveted title of "Dingi Gesun Niein" or the "Big Medicine Man." Beahrs will graduate next May, after which he intends to do enoug magic to "carpet" himself through a three- year medical course. Mary Beth Riser's sister, Alice, was a guest in the dormitory over the week end. Beryl Puckett was seen a few times in the hall over the week end. * * * * Although Catherine Leitch did not leave town, she spent most of her time away from the dormitory: Her parents, an aunt, and a cousin, of New Salem, Oregon, motored up to spend Thanksgiving with Katherine » t. — — tr— v 1 T—«.•• H f/Y/-' ' • -1..i'.• •• •• • .. •- • V • V:-v\ vV'-' •' :-•••• - • - • ••••?:* • i .

We won the Pep Pennant! It was announced at the Homecom­ ing hanquet that the Off-Campus club had shown lots of spirit and pep, and were rewarded with the Pep Pennant which will adorn one of the walls in the Off-Campus room when it ar rives. We are not only proud of each girl who turned out to the football games, but are also proud of the wide-awakeness and cooperativeness that the winning of the pennant sig­ nifies for our Club. Thanks a lot to evfery^ one who has made the securing of this award possible, and we hope you will cooperate equally well in all future events. * * * * The Council has announced an en­ largement of members, through the creation of the offices of Freshman,.

There are many of these social gatherings planned and we hope that you will make an effort to attend when your hostess announces the date and the time. It is one way we have planned to help us get acquainted with each other, and from all first reports we feel it will be successful. * * f if Several girls reported at the gym last Monday nite for Sports Hour and ^ enjoyed themselves greatly in playing volley ball and badminton and basketball.

Y.—(ACP)—To combat radical elements which are "misrepresenting student opinion to the American people," students of Columbia University have formed a new campus organization known as the Columbia Blue Shirts. The first move of the group was to take a vote of confidence for Nich­ olas Murray Butler, president of the university, and Dean Herbert E. Hawks, for their decision to refuse readmission to Robert iBurke, athlete and president-elect of the class of '38 Burke took part in the demonstra­ tion in front of Dr. Butler's home last May in protest of Columbia's sending a delegate to the anniversary celebra­ tion of Heidelberg University in Ger many. He was, ag a result, advised not to apply for readmission to the university this fall. David B. Mautner of the class of *38, one of the chief organizers, ex­ pressed the feeling that the majority of students had been tolerant too long to demonstrations and strikes held by the so-called radicals. Mautner said the new organization would combat each meeting of protect with songfests or rallies to support the decisions of the administrative of­ ficers. The Blue Shirts will use sa­ tire as its best weapon. RAIN The rain is silver in the woods where birch trees grow, but down by the river where willows lean leisurely over the bank to- trail their plumes in the Silent water,' there the rain is emerald. —Mildred Nickersoh in the Chris­ tian Science Monitor. MARY TAKING NEW MAGAZINES Several new magazines have been added recently to the great number taken by the Normal School Library. II has received the very first copy of the new periodical titled the "Sky— a Magazine of Cosmic News," whose predecessor was the smaller and more modest "Drama of the Skies," and succeeds it as the official bulletin of the Haydn Planetarium. The "Sky," which is published by the American Museum of Natural History, is ex ccedingly valuable for science classes who are delving into the mysteries of the universe. Another publication which started its existence anew is the "Life" which is now -being published by. "Time." The" pictorial portraying of life in this supplement is both vivid and c'.rrrratic. And besides the realistic scenes caught by the camera, there are reprinted the idta of life which a modern American has pla:cd on canvas. A periodical which is hot so new as the two mentioned above, but which the library has begun to take, is the "Educational Abstracts." It includes a resume of leading magazine articles on education. The manner in which the sketches are written are descrip­ tive rather than critical. This mag­ azine is valuable as it is an excellent source to which one can refer in searching for the latest educational trends and ideas. , Two others magazines the library has recently subscribed to are the Research Quarterly of the American Physical Education Association. The first will be interesting to those stu­ dents majoring in.physical education and the-latter, which is' put but every, other month by the Cornell State Col­ lege, New York) contains informa­ tion Useful'to those interested in geog­ raphy and agriculture.

At that time the Kappa Pi girls were hostesses to all former members of the Kindergarten-Prim- ary girls who returned for Home- cflfiiing. The tables were arranged in the shape of a K. Adorning the cen­ ter of the table was a large bouquet of pink rose buds, a gift to Miss Meisner from Miss Bloomer. Also adorning the table was a large conu- copis, made by Mary Lynn. The girls found their places by means of place cards, made by the first grade children of the Edison School. The doilies were made by the second graders, and the napkins by the hin-^rgarteners. Jean Schnied er, president, -resided. She intro­ duced all former members who had returned. These included Ruth Emen dorf, Emma Jean Ryan, Wennonah Marshall, Dorothy Newcomer, Mary Jo Estep, Barbara Kohler, Ebba 01 sen, and Thelma Johnson. Ann Tier- ney's mother enjoyed the breakfast with her daughter. Anne's father, William Tierney, is remembered by some of the faculty as a popular student on our campus. Greetings from former students who were un­ able to be present at the breakfast were read by Edith Ryan. Several songs were sung during the breakfast. The girls sang with the aid of the piano, which was played by Margaret McArthur. Waffles were baked at Tour irons by Nella Falseni, Marie Throssell, Catherine Chaudoin, and Betty Grewe. At the close of the breakfast Mary Jo Estep played at the request of the guests a beauti­ ful piano interpretation of "Pasto­ ral." Annie Clark was general chairman of the breakfast. Other committee heads were: 'Marie Thrassell, food Margaret McArthur, decoration and Anne Tierney, clean-up. The club hopes to make this an annual affair.

CARTER TRANSFER CO. 106 West Fourth St. Phone Main 91 Two hundred and forty-six fresh­ men and transfers took tests in Sep­ tember. This was the largest number since 1932. Of the total group about 40 per cent were men and about 60 per cent were women. One hundred ninety were first-qu.'irtcr freshmen and 45 were transfers. Freshmen Surpass Generally How well does the averaere fresh­ man perform? In the Detroit Intelli­ gence Test the freshman group this year surpassed previous freshmen groups since 1932 considerably. A high per centage of students have scored high on the intelligence test. If the tests are accurate we can say that college freshmen in this institu­ tion are more accurate than the aver­ age college freshmen group. English Results Poor In English we get a very different picture. The freshman performance on the Cooperative English Test was quite mediocre. Three-fourths of all the college freshmen scored below the medium or average preformance of college freshmen throughout the coun­ try. Arithmetic Fair In the arithmetic test the freshman group this year was slightly superior to the preceding freshman groups. The average college freshiy-an per­ forms about as well as the average e" even th grader. Twenty-five per cent of the freshmen scored below the eighth grade standard. Men Excel Slightly In general, the men do considerably better than the women in arithmetic. The women do very much better in English. Men do slightly less well in intelligence than women but the difference isn't very great. Fresh­ men men this year have performed much better than men of preceding freshmen groups. This college seems to have secured a better group. of freshmen men than those secured previously. Kenneth L. Van Leuven New York Life Ins. Co. COMPLETE SERVICE GOODYEAR TIRES STANDARD OIL PRODUCTS J.

Did he get a scare in the Lief Erickson battle! Why the Wildcats had to shoot seven torpedoes into the bow of the Viking ship, and in the meantime six Erickson's bullets hit their marks, before the sailboat sank to the bottom of the salty Puget Sound. The great prognosticator only miss­ ed three guesses in his last predictions " and tied three. He hit nine. The record book now reads, right, 79 wrqng, 33 ties, 9. Well, with a few major games left to play Gus will be able to"*recover, in fact he added ten pounds to his bay window after he finished his big Turkey day feast. He swears that he predicted the total turkeys eaten up by the great Am­ erican eaters. Well, we can't check up von him so we will let it go at that. You know Gus claims to be a descend­ ant of the _wigster George, who cut down his father's favorite cherry tree. Only three important battles .will •be fought on the gridiron this Satur­ day, and about six minor sword fights .will be decided. Here they are: Washington S.-Gonzaga: Gonzaga will drop one. Notre' Dame-U. S C.: What a .game—Notre Dame. St. Marys-Temple: The Saints, but close. Mississippi State- Florida: T h e .staters. • j Mississippi-Tennessee: Tennessee, I guess. • ..

ORCHIDS The curtains fell with everything ending up well as the Wildcats de- ' feated the Vikings. And now the uni­ forms are packed away withmothballs. = TWo assets to the team "finished their credit: Rdy Manifold and His assist­ ant, Johnny Williams, deserve lots of handshaking for their fine ,work. Ho\v would you like to have about 35 husky gents hollering at you: "Gimmte a shoe string," or "My pants aire torn," or "Give ie some tape." Well, you wouldn't like it, but they ! take it every day and. it's no cinch. We should give them a big pat ' on the babk because they were very I competent'managers. Only hope they • •wjill be back again. WHO'S WHO MANNY SCHNEIDMILLER St. John turned loose one of the cleverest ball carried in the tri-Nor- mal conference this year, and Coach Leo Nicholson was the lucky mentor to have Manny. Schneidmiller does a "hula-hula" when he's on a trip around some unfortunate end, and Manny doesn't need any assistance from his "mammy" when it comes to carrying the old "watermelon." He seems to have grease all over his pants, by the way tacklers slide off him. Manny registered the longest run of the season for the Wildcats in the Lewiston game when he skirted from scrimmage 38 yards around the wings. He has also managed to collect two touchdowns for second place scoring honors, sharing with two other Cats. Scheidmiller really showed his heels to the boys t.from the rainy side of the hill, and next year, watch his smoke, for he's going to be a threat. He earned his sweater this year and I,hope he returns tiext fall to sweep the ends for our dear alma mater. iimI Kf SHSr J JH4 |W Smoke Cary CONGRATULATIONS " While I am in a tossing mood, I ' miiJit Tfidt" forget our very able1 yell- king, Jimmy Smith. Jimmy has done a better job of attempting to restore the old spirit than any yell king of recent history, and deserves all back­ ing you can give him. Yqu do your part because you have a very good mouth piece to lead you on.' Smith has organized a pep band,'stated a yelling contest, and you know what else. I overheard a couple of grads •saying: "My but these kids certainly have the old vim and pep." That's what Jimmy has done, and if he doesn't deserve a lot of credit I don't know who does. Give him your loyal support, as he has given it and your spirit falls in with the players and the outcome will be the road to vic­ tory. Well Jimmy keep your fine work up, for basketball is just around the corner, and congratulations. ROY BANNER Roy Banner, the moral trainer of the squad, comes from the little vil­ lage that sent five others besides Roy Shelton. Roy' never uses powerful "adjectives," therefore, the moral trainer. Banner played a very de­ ceptive brand of football at the ends and Carr replaced him only after Nick discovered the passing combination of Huggins to Carr. Roy's comment on this after a certain game was, "Boy, that kid really deserves to be in there." That's the kind of spirit he had all season and it's fellows like him that make fewer headaches for the head coach. Banner also was a sweater earner for the first time this year, and I hope he remains along enough to be awarded a blanket, be­ cause he will be an asset to our camp, it he does.

Tuberculosis Is Still Major Problem Today Reassuring facts about tuberculo­ sis were voiced today by Mrs. J. Earl Thornton, field secretary of the Washington Tuberculosis Association, during a discussion of the Christmas Seal sale which opened throughout the state of Washington on Novem her 27. "Entrenched for centuries as the leading agent of death, tuberculosis TEAM LOOKS STRONG It's too bad for the Wildcats that their season is over because they have just found their stride.

SUCCESSFUL SEASON though it may be too late. The old adage, 'An ounce of prevention,' still ranks first in importance in the I tuberculosis program. Education for Although the^Cats have won only the prevention of the spread of the three games and lost four they had a good season. They lost the first three games because of mistakes 5 - make by "green kids," but that's part of the game. They nearly ' threw the Lewiston fracas in the fire after they outplayed the Idaho * eleven. Against Cheney the game came out as it should have because the Savages were plenty powerful, but I think if Huggins could have been in shape to play, Cheney would have had a busier afternoon. With Hug- J gins in the last two games the Wild­ cats were an ignited sparkplug on ' defense as well as on offense. "Tiny" Thurston was the bulwark all sea­ son in the line, with Cary sharing the backfield work with Schneidmiller, Taylor, Huggfns, and Palo. Carr was very deceptive while playing end, and Smoke and A. Anderson played a ' super performance all season. Since basketball season is here we will dedi- sssile to football and then disease is both the greatest aid and the greatest need in its control. "The educational attack is financed through funcTs derived from Christ­ mas Seals. No one should die from tuberculosis through lack of knowl- iedge about the disease, but they do! The greater the public interest the more rapidly the tuberculosis death- rate declines, seems to be an estab lished fact. Safety from tuberculo­ sis for each one of us depends upon the safety of all. You can contribute to your own security and that of your neighbors through your purchase of Christmas Seals. Buy and use them now." Kenneth L. Van Leuven New York Life Ins.

ANDERSON AND SMOKE PLACE ON SECOND ELEVEN WILDCATS TRIUMPH OVER STRONG VIKING ELEVEN 7 TO 6 These selections are made by the Campus Crier's sports editor and ap­ proved by Head Coach Leo Nicholson, and after much debating of a few close choices we have picked the lineups1 of the two elevens. Some stars have been left out because they didn't play much during the season, but were .very competent performers. We feel that some fans may find fault with these selections but we have tried to pick the best in the crop. Backfield Selection At the signal calling post Dzurick of Bellingham was picked. He is 165 pounds of fighting drive. He is the smartest field general in the con­ ference. A close second choice is C r o s s of Cheney, another 165 pounder. At left half, A. Poffenroth, a Sav­ age player, weighs 168 pounds. Pof­ fenroth leads the Savages to a suc­ cessful season by his classy. running and passing. Clifton of (Bellingham, 155 pounds, gets the call for second choice. He is very, shifty and a fine open field runner. At right half, Cary of Ellensburg will take care of that post. He weighs 165 and is one of the deadliest blocker and tackier in the conference, and he also can pack the pigskin. Anderson, the big i92 pound halfback of Cheney gets . the second- call-with Chovat, giving him plenty of competition, of Bellingham. The fullback position- goes to Tarte, another Viking boy, who weighs 185 pounds. Tarte can really Vshow his .heels when it. comeg.-to packing the ball. He . smashes the . line or takes off-tackle or around the end plays ' He also is a fine punter. Barnes of the Savages is selected on the second team. Barnes is a good blocker and a punter too. This is" the backfield setup, and a fine one at that. Borst at Center Bud Borst, the mighty Wildcat pivot man, who weighs 179 pounds is our choice after a slight hesitation, the choice lying between Borst and Greene of Cheney, who got the second pick finally. Borst backs up the line on defense, and he is plenty good. Bud has intercepted a pass in every game this year, and has knocked down many. A 60-minute player and a great one at that. Greene is also a good center, and very alert on de­ fense _as well as offense. Borst is flanked at the right by Frank of Cheney, 200 pounds of smashing beef. He is very capable at making large holes for ball carriers and on defense he has broken up lots of plays. At the other guard position we find- Thurston of Ellensburg, the TAYLOR'S TOE PROVIDED MARGIN FOR VICTORY Huggins to Carr Aerial Attack Topped the Vikings A large Homecoming crowd wit­ nessed one of the hardest fought bat­ tles they had ever seen when the mighty Wildcats knocked at the door- once to defeat a strong Viking eleven by the margin of a placement by Freddie Taylor, the final score be­ ing 7 to 6. A Huggins to Carr passing com­ bination thrilled the spectators and gave Bellingham a busy afternoon, but only to have the Cats take second place in the conference with Cheney first. First Quarter The game opened with Bellingham kicking off to Ellensburg's 10-yard line where Cary returned up to the 30. Oh the first play Huggins made eight and Cary added two more for first down. After three attempts and an incompleted pass over the goal line to Carr, the Cats lost the ball on downs. Bellingham's ball on own 20 where Anderson was offside, but on next play he crashed through and smeared Bellingham for a loss. The Vikings punted out to the mid stripe. An attempted pass was intercepted by Dzurich, after a 25-yard drive. Bellingham lost ball on downs. Hug­ gins punted back out to the 50. An intercepted pass with Carr knocking ball in Anderson's hands gave the ball back to the Wildcats on the Vikings 40. After two runs by Huggins and Cary and a pass to Carr to the 10- yard line Ellensburg lost ball on downs, forcing Taj'te to punt out to the 35-yard line as the quarter ended. Second Quarter Schneidmiller reeled off a nice 13- yard run, at this point. Huggins at­ tempted a field goal which was no good Vikings' ball on our 20. Tarte punted out to Ellensburg's 40, and on a return punt Bellingham got ball on own 28. Tarte reels off three first downs in a row, and a pass to Dzurich placed ball up to Ellensburg's 28. Thurston and Anderson on two suc­ cessive plays threw Bellingham back to 42-yard line where Borst inter­ cepted a pass and ran it up to own_ 2S. A 15-yard run by Schneidmiller and a 13-yard pass to Carr took ball up to Bellingham'c 39. After a run and three passes the Cats lost ball on downs. The second quarter ended soon after with the score 0 to 0. ' Third 'Quarter Ellensburg • kicked off to Belling- Yarn's 30 and returned 5 yardsl A pass] to Chro^at' mad^ first doWA. Dzurich' made 15 yards and Chrovat broke1 mighty 165 pounder, who really stops the offense. Always at the bottom and always with his arms wrapped around the ball carrier, Thurston is a, bul­ wark in the line. Smoke of Ellens­ burg and Bauman of Cheney, place on second team. The left tackle is taken care of by Peterson of Bellingham, a hard-, hit­ ting and charging tackle who weighs 177 pounds. He gave Cheney jplenty of trouble and he looked good against Ellensburg. Blair of Cheney is at right tackle weighing 182 pounds. He is very aggressive and, plenty totigh to get through A. Ander&on of El­ lensburg will give both of these boys an exhibition as he did in the Belling­ ham game in on every play and do­ ing lots of damage. Anderson faired very badly in the Cheney game, there­ fore only placing on the second team. The other tackle is Felber from Cheney, 196 pounds of good hard muscle. The left wings post is taken 'care of by the able hands of iBannoii from Cheney 175 pounds of speed. Very good on defense and exceptionally strong at gettihg down on punts. A very able pass receiver. Carr, only 151 pounds, from Ellensburg, gets the right end position. Carr is a very good defensive end arid on end around plays he canf be beat. His specialty is passing receiving from the able hands of Huggins. ' Cair scored against Cheney and again against Bellingham. He is also the high scoye'r on ' Ellerisbiirg's team. Smith of Bellingham, who' didn't play in the Bellingham game here finds a place on the second team while Hibbs of Cheney fills in at the other end. You may disagree with these se­ lections but we' feel that the two com­ binations listed are the best. Those who should receive mention are, from Ellensburg: Huggins, Schneidmiller, Rowe, * Betts, F. Borst, Palo, Banner and Burnett. From Bellingham: Tom- co, Kvinsland, Norgroski, Ullin, Sas- ki, Lange, Claypool and Krueger. From Cheney: Borck, Pierce and J. Poffenroth. First team Bannon (C) LE...

Bellingham was penalized 15 yards for talking back to referee. A pass to Clifton, who was finally stopped on one-yard line, paved way for a score. After four attempts to push it over the Vikins finally succeeded with Clifton just barely over. The conver­ sion was blocked. Bellingham kicked off to the Cats' 10 where Rowe returned up to 45- yard line. A first and ten followed and then Ellensburg punted to 20, but a return of punts Bellingham had ball on own 30. Here Schneidmiller inter­ cepted a pass arid ran it up to Bell­ ingham's 22-yard line. A long across the field pass to Carr over the end zone tallied the touchdown. Taylor came in and .toed the ball between the uprights for the winning point. A little later the quarter ended. Fourth Quarter The quarter opened with the ball in Bellingham's possession on its own 42. A nice pass and a punt over the end zone turned the ball over to the Wildcats on their own 20. Carr made 15 on an end around play. Peterson re­ covered Ellensburg's fumble on the Cats' 44, but Cary intercepted a pass and then Bellingham intercepted a "pass, followed by an interception by Hopkins on mid stripe. Following this outburst of interceptions Hug­ gins punted out to Bellingham's 18. Tarte and Lange took ball up to own 46 where Carr threw Dzurich for a 12-yard loss. At this poin Belling­ ham started throwing passes from all over the field but all in vain, for the ball game ended with the ball in Ellensburg's possession. Final score 7 to 6. For Ellensburg Schneidmiller, Cary, Thurston, Borst, Huggins, Carr, and A. Anderson stood out, and for Bell­ ingham, Peterson, Ullin, Dzurich, Tarte, Chrovat, and Clifton looked good.'

Deadlocked at 37 points each were Milton Popovich, University of Mon­ tana Jimmy Cain, University of Washington, and Bob Williams, Uni­ versity of California at Los Angeles. The three backfield aces moved a point ahead of Ed Goddard, Wash­ ington State college quarterback, who has led most of the season. Williams' point scoring efforts are the most remarkable in that he has made more points with his toe than from touchdowns. He has booted three field goals and converted point after touchdown 10 times. • Leading conference scorers: g td fg pat ti Popovich, HB, Montana.. 9 6 0 1 37 Williams, FG, U.C.L.A...10 3 3 10 37 Cain, HB, Washington.... 9 6.0 1 37 Goddard, QB, W.

It was presented to him by the class after the completion of one of his "gigantic assignments" in the hope that it would acquaint him with that muggy feeling that comes after too long a session with pages and pages of fine print. Mulloy, on impulse, tossed the bot­ tle into the wastebasket, saying: "Like the Europeans, I don't believe crime and alcohol are associated." WASHINGTON STATE GOES . AFTER GONZAGA SATURDAY Washington State College Cougars invade Spokane next Saturday to play Gonzaga in the northwest's final foot­ ball blast of the 1936 season. The contest was expected to provide a battleground for two of the best backs on the coast—Ed Goddard of W. S. C., and George Karamatic of the' Zag's.
