~^iyy n-r',:* • v ? is .-,• Junior Class Meeting Thurs- day at 10 A. M. Room N-130 Vol. No. 10 WASHINGTON STATE NORMAL SCHOOL ELLENSBURG, WASHINGTON, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 4,1937 Girls and Boys! Cupid's In formal After the Basket ball Game on Feb. 13 No. 16 This and' maybe That i —Dick ROBS King, Marbleplayer Mussolini's Heir Bob Burns? REMEMBER BACK in the grades and in high school how everybody Who liked poetry was a sissy? It's interesting to see how people of dif ferent ages look upon poetry. If you're a full-grown adult and a wotildrbe composer of poetry, the populace doesn't say much about it, and very few will say it is all silly- eVen though many might privately think so. But if you are a genius at It','" .'as Edgar Allen Pde or Omar Khayyam were, you are loved and re spected for your talent by everyone, no matter what the age. Just recently, a poetry club lias been formed around here—and the mer bers aren't all sissies, either. * * • * WHO WOULD EVER have sus pected that King George V of Eng land Was a marble player ? It seems that he was, and quite an interested one at that. He was in the habit of playing marbles every day with his children, and he awarded an annual medal to the marble champion of his immediate family. He took an active part in , the tournaments, but he never had any trouble in deciding what to Ac In case he himself won the prize. That never happened. • * * * MANY. PEOPLE think that Mus solini has mlade no prepiartioris for a itteCesSdr .''to his powerful position at tlie heltfi bf the boat 'taking Italy to l$)r ffistiftjr. II Puce has made it Jm^oSef&ily hard for a potential suc cessor to be recognized because of 'extreme jealousy, but out of the ih&'sses has arisen one man—Count Galeazoo Ciano. He is the son-in- law of none other than Mussolini him self,, and his father is a leading mem ber of the all-powerful Grand Fascist Council. Count Ciano really hit the front pages for sure when he went on 4ombing spree in Ethopia. He was one of Italy's ace airmen, and while was there he tacked up an enviable record. Once he accidentally bombed an Italian regiment, but back home the breezy newspaper accounts skip ped over that part of it. * * * * THE STUDENTS from the Coast are awed by the amount of snow here. The low temperatures are also' a source of comment, especially among the students who have 8 o'clock classes. They hate to have to pile out cf a warm bed at such an unearthly hour and then go ploughing through the snow and cold air. At least it does serve to awaken a few of them so that they absorb—theoretically— a greater portion of their class work. Maybe more should take 8 o'clock classes. * * * * FIFTY YEARS AGO, when this writer was at the- peak of his literary career, it really got cold here, and no fooling. Outside it was so frigid our breath froze as it left our mouth. If the people stayed out in the intense cold very long—which they did not— their frozen breath grew to be long and heavy, and the fur trappers in . v these parts soon became hum-backs because of the weight they had to carry. Outsiders who came to the valley in the summertime thought we were a mighty hard working bunch, but they didn't know the half of it. We'll admit our breaths were pretty heavy in those days, but they weren't as bad as some are now they weren't so strong you could chin yourself on them. And you complain about this weather we've having now! WHITRECKCLUB MEMBERS TELL OF TRAVELS The Whitbeck Club, one of the two new organizations on the campus, held its regular meeting Tuesday night, February 2. The program, under the direction of Grace Walters, president, was presented by three members of the club. Gilbert Giles told of his experiences in England, Nella Falsehi described life in Northern Italy, and Roy Manifold reviewed the experiences of his trips to the Philip pine Islands. Organized January 13 The Whitbeck Club was organized in a social meeting held January 13. The club, which is advised by Mr. Shaw, elected Grace Walters as its first president. The club was organized for further study and discussion of geographical interests. Membership is intended for geography majors and minors, or any others particularly interested in the subject. Miss Walters has arranged the fol lowing programs for the coming meet ings: February 16—Earl Waddell, of Ros- lyn will talk on PLACER MINING IN ALASKA.

Concrete Plans Under Way A. regular meeting of the club met in the Faculty Room on Tuesday, January 19. Standing committees for the rest of the quarter were appointed, and plans for the children's concert were begun. Jean Schneider is to be general chairman for this annual af fair, which is to be held this year in the new auditorium on February 28.

She showed the club an umbrella, upon which was painted a few constella tions. The next regular meeting will be held on February 2, at which time Miss Pauline Johnson, of the Normal School art department, will speak. Approximately 300,000 people in Oregon depend directly or indirectly on the timber industry for a liveli hood. This is a population roughly equal to that of the. city of Portland.

Irish Tenor Delights Record Audience in College Auditorium The first assembly ever to beMield in the new College Auditorium was very well attended by' both student body and faculty. The guest artist was Charles O'Connor, a young Irish man, who sang a number of Irish songs, to the accompaniment of an Irish harp. Mr. O'Connor sang some songs in Gaelic and some in English. Several laments, rather weird, but beautiful, probably, to an Irish ear, were fea tured on his program. A number of gayer songs brought delighted ap plause from the audience. Mr. O'Connor has probably traveled a great deal, and in doing so perhaps has lost the rich brogue which most people think characteristic of an Irishman, for he talks more like native of England. PLAY NIGHT FRIDAY OR SATURDAY Book Review and Reports Given at Club Meeting Latest registration figures at the Oregon Normal School, Monmouth), Oregon, show an attendance of 465 students for the winter term of 1937. ! * * Better than 50 per cent of hun dreds of newspaper stories appearing in metropolitan dailies were' discov ered to be correct in every detail in a recent study made by. Mitchell V.

The sports night will either be Fri day or Saturday night. The girls who come can be assured of having a grand time. The committee composed of Lois Fuller, Nancy Wedge, Hope McPherson, and Olive Rutter an nounce something different in line of girls sports. There's sure to be a re] volley ball tournament with four teams competing. There will be basketball too—and some snappy games and relays for girls who do not play basketball. A tumbling contest will top off the evening and those who wish, may stay for badminton. Be sure and bring your birds! The girls would, like to see some new faces among the sports enthusi asts. You don't have to be a star player—this is the time to learn. A regular meeting of the History Club was held in the Faculty Room on Tuesday, January 26, at 7:30. Robert Nesbit gave a review of the book "Propaganda and Dictatorship," edited by Harwood S. Childs. This bdok was recently donated by the International Relations Clubs. A short review of the history of Ellensburg and the Kittitas Valley was given by "Grave Walters. Karla Mogensen gave a short review of the Okanogan Country. These last two reports are the first of a series, in which each member will contribute a report on his home locality. The first two were very in teresting, Miss Walters reviewing the first lynching in Ellensburg history and Miss Mogensen reviewing the inter-ciey rivalry between Winthrop and Twisp. Dr. Cars'tenson wishes to announce that a pair of gloves was found in the History Room after initiation last quarter. The owner may have them by calling at his office. HUNCH LEAGUE A bill providing for a change of name for the three normal schools of the state of Washington has passed the state senate by a unanimous vote. The bill is now being considered by a house committee. Although a similar bill failed to pass the last legislature, the current bill seems likely to pass. The bill was introduced by Senator Roland and sponsored by Senators Koontz, Murphy, Drumheller, Klem- gard, Wingrove, McAulay, Murphin, Haddon, Keeler, Herrin, Kyle, Thom as, Wannamaker, Todd, Edwards and Farquharson. Recommended by School Heads Modeled on a decision recently reached jointly by the trustees of Cheney,' Ellensburg and Bellirigham normals, the bill asks that the three institutions hereafter be known as the Eastern Washington College of Edu- bation, the Central Washington Col tege of Education and the Western Washington College of Education. The normal school in the United States has Been a two-year institu tion beyond the high school for the training of elementary teachers. The two years were devoted almost ex clusively to the study of the common branches and pedagogical studies in cluding practice" teaching. Normals Grant Degrees Within recent years a number of states, including the state of Wash ington, have set up a three-year min imum requirement for elementary teachers and a few states have set up a four-year requirement. Since 1920 the .normal schools. of the. state of Washington have been authorized to offer four-year courses and since 1933 these institutions have been au thorized to grant degrees. As the normal schools have become four-year institutions the practice throughout the United States has been to change the name from normal school to college. Up to the present 36 states have changed the names of their normal schools to colleges. Of the remaining 12 states six have no normal schools. This leaves only six states that have not changed the name of their schools. These six states are: Maine, New Hampshire, Ver mont, Idaho, Oregon and Washington. Of these six states Washingtpn is the only state whose normal schools are four-year institutions. Use Descriptive Name Some states use the name teachers college and others use college of edu- ciation. At two annual meetings of the joint board of trustees and presi dents of the three normal schools in 1933 and 1934 it was agreed to use the name college of education. The name college of 'education was chosen because it is descriptive of the func tion of the normal schools of this state since these institutions offer a foundation of general education dur ing the first two years, and a tech nical education for teachers during the last two years. In addition to the name college of education it was agreed at the meet ings of the joint board of trustees and presidents to prefix a name that would give our schools a regional designation indicating the regions of the state they particularly serve and that would modify Che present local designations. The following states use regional designations for their teacher training institution: Illinois, Kentucky, Michigan, Missouri, Mon tana, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Ore gon and Texas. * Old man weather made himself very unwelcome Sunday when con tinued storm in connection with press ing business at Olympia made it im possible for Governor Clarence D. Martin to attend the dedication serv ices of the new building. Governor Martin was to make the address of the program. Snowbound roads and flu epidemics also put a damper on the attendance at the afternoon program. Although the auditorium was Well filled with students and townspeople, Dr. Mc- Connell indicated that many more had been expected and had sent their regrets. Dean Willis T. Uhl, of the Univer sity of Washington, was the main speaker on the program. His topic was LET THEIR LIGHT SO SHINE. In his talk he emphasized the signifi cance of activity in the learning pro cess of the child and urged teachers to avail themselves of the opportunity of adequate preparation and to feel* their responsibility to the youth of America. William R. Boone of Portland- furnished three selections on the new pipe organ. Mr. Boone also played a recital Sunday evening which was very well received. Honored guests of the day were: John Maloney, architect ^ Victor J. BoyJlon, president of Board of Trustee's J. Hendrickson, contractor . William Bodine, inspector R. T. Har- greaves, president at Cheney, and C. H. Fisher, president at Bellingham. The music for the program was rendered by the A Cappella Choir and the String Ensemble After the program the building was opened to all guests for inspection. EDUCATORS PLAN SCHOOL REFORM NOTICE The poetry group will meet Thurs day afternoon at 4:30 instead of Sun day afternoon as originally an nounced. It is not too late to join the group. Come if you are interested in poetry. —A: Ji MatKews. The Hunch league is now underway —and what a league. Both teams shooting at the same basket is really a sight. You should go over to the gym at 10 o'clock daily if you want to see some good old fashion action. Three games have been played up to date, and the winner in each case totaled 21 points. Carey's team whiD- ped Banner's camp by a score of 21 to 16, and Burnett's five came through the first rounds with a' 21 to 19 vic tory. Ellis' outfit took Roger's quin tet by the tune of 21 to 17. Be sure to follow the results of this league because it should be interesting. Wattled ibises from Ethiopia are among the rare birds in the New York Zoo. OFF-CAMPUS " ^ " determination to reform the - "crazy quilt patchwork" of Washing ton high school courses was launched by the administrators' and super visors' unit of the Washington Edu cation Association yesterday as it closed its third annual two-day con ference at the Olympic Hotel. To replace the old-time system of unnecessary, obsolete subjects with a coordinated program of practical edu cation is the association's goal, ac cording to Prof. E. M. Draper of the University of Washington, secretary of the state curriculum commission. "For years the only method of re vising curricula has been by adding more subjects," Professor Draper said. "As a result, today we have a clumsy mass of courses, many of which are nearly useless." Teaching of abstract theories is a job for colleges, he declared. "High school subjects should be more practical. They should tieach boys and girls how to live happily in the scientific world of 1937," the professor said. Professor Draper, E. L. Breckner, chairman of the legislative commit tee, and L. O. Swenson, chairman of the curriculum commission, discussed the proposed reforms before the meet ing yesterday. New officers elected yesterday • to serve during 1937 were: President, W. P. Tyler, superintendent of Vashon schools rvice president, E. J. Mc- Namara, superintendent of Longview schools, and director, Miss Helen Laurie, supervisor in Seattle ele mentary schools. NOTICE Thursday morning at 10 a. m., there is to be a meeting of the Junior Class in room N-130, The purpose of this, meeting is to discuss plans for a* Junior Class sleigh riding party. Every junior is urged to attend this meeting because there will be other business to discuss, which will be of interest to all our members. Second largest annual tree planting program in the history of the na- itional forests of Oregon and Wash ington was completed in 1936, ac cording to records of the U. S. Forest Service. More than three million trees were planted on 4,418 acres. Off-Campus circles were very quiet this week end as we all snuggle in by the fire to avoid the onrush of Old Man Winter. However, several girls were seen braving the elements Satur day night at the President's Ball. Among familiar faces seen there were Athalie Schultz, June Ames, Helen Hadley, Gerry Stull, Mary Oeschener, and Mary Crossland. We were surprised and happy to see Har riet Lee there. Harriet was a mem ber of our club last year, and since leaving school has been taking nurses' training at St. Elizabeth's hospital. Only a few girls went home. Marcia Best spent the week end at her home in Wapato. Mary Russell spent the week end at her home in Naches as did Beatrice and Ernestine Eschbach. Many more girls are planning trips home soon. Miss Ruth Hinz and Jean McCrea entertained at a delightful waffle According to this survey 104 tax- supported schools give 355 courses in this field with 1,082 semester hours credit. breakfast in their apartment Sunday morning. Covers were laid for six with Marie Richert, Ellen Wicker- sham, Florence Jansen, and Margie Lapiere completing the guest list. June Ames, social chairman, has announced chairmen of the various committees for the Off-Campus ban quet. General chairman will be Dor othy Carlson, with Virginia Otto and Marian . Bowers co-chairman for favors. Mary Crossland is chairman of the flowers committee and Ana Cree is chairman of the program committee. Mary Spurling will be. chairman of the invitations commit tee.

Hinch OPEN FORUM IT'S YOUR PAPER _ In the last few weeks the editor and the staff of the Campus Crier have embarked upon a new policy, and they have.been putting forth every effort to give the school a bet^r. paper. In doing this, they have set up certain ob jectives, believing that a paper which is published by an college institution should reflect the activities, interests, and opinions of its students. You, the faculty and students of W. S. N. S., are asked to take a more active interest, since it is only through your cooperation that the Crier can be made to truly represent* our school. It is your paper, and you are asked to share in the responsibility for it by making it colorful and alive With your interests and opinions On this campus there are certain events and problems in which you are inter ested and which affect you directly. You think about them yourselves, and you enjoy discussing them with your fellow students and professors. Too, there are questions of international affairs and contemporary politics which are engaging the attention of people all over the world, questions that everyone discusses and hears discussed daily. Don't you think that the Campus Crier might be used for the expression and exchange of student ideas on some of these questions? # Although the staff is chiefly responsible for the ma terial published in the paper each week, any student or faculty member is encouraged to submit news articles, features, original literary compositions—anything which Re thinks might interest others. There are many possi bilities for the collection of unusual and interesting bits of material, and if you enjoy writing you will have the satisfaction of seeing your work in print. A greater Variety in the type of contributions could be expected, and every issue of the paper would have a wider range of interests. When you receive your next issue of the Campus Crier* don't r^ard it merely as the work of an editor and a selected staff. It concerns everyone associated with our institution, and everyone can do something for it It's your paper. • ' —R. G. ' AS THEY SEE IT AT BELLINGHAM During three and four years of college students come in contact with several different types of professors. r irst of all there are those invaluable few who stim- UIat demand thought from their classes. They de- inana thought not by compulsion but interest. Failing in the geat middle class are those pedagogues who give nothing but facts. Average results are obtained from average efforts. The third deserves no attention. They are the worth less few who give nothing that could not be learned from the text. The first group will provide the intellectual stimula tion so badly needed in today's world. They will build the thinkers qualified to lead this world from its present eco nomic, political and social stagnation. From the second variety of professors will come the mediocre workers, gaining their living from the formulas, theories and facts given them in class work. 1 It is fortunate that the third group is small. They are worthless from every detail. Since the American education plan seems to concen trate on the mass-education-factory philosophy, the first group can train the few, the second class can'train the many, but the third class should be relegated to digging- ditches or firing boilers. We are a teacher's college. The time to decide in which class we will fall is before we teach. • Sports Night For the past few week ends, the girls have been holding a sports night on Friday evening. This is a very good activity and I am glad to hear that there are enough girls who are interested in these events turning out to make the sports night a success ful enterprise. Did anyone ever stop to think that the boys might also be interested in these sports nights? The girls start ed the sports night to fill in the gap in our Social Calendar,- or in other words to supply some kind of enter tainment for themselves on Friday nights when no other social event was scheduled. What are the boys supposed to do on these nights, sit around and wait for the girls to re turn to the dorms and then spend the rest of the evening in the usual man ner, sit in our own dorm and play checkers, monopoly, or study? Why not make these sports nights a mixed affair. Mixed sports nights are carried on in other schools with a gieat deal of success and I can see no reason why we cannot conduct a mixed sports night upon this campus with equal success. I am sure that the girls would not mind it too much if the boys were allowed to take part in the sports night. After talking the subject over with several of the boys, I am equally sure that there would be a large group of boys who would be willing to turn out and cooperate in making a mixed sports night a huge success. I merely wrote this to express my ideas on this subject. I will be glad to hear other students express their ideas upon this subject. Come on, students, express your opinions pro or con. —Truman Lentz. SOCIALIZED MEDICINE Socialized medicine has been a topic widely discussed during "bull fests," "sewing circles" and general get-togethers by various types of personages. Those of you who were on the campus last year may have heard some discussion on the subject. It is my ambition to reestablish some interest in the subject and to see what can be done about making our health, service here at college com plete. « For many years doctors have fought socialized medicine. They fear that if medicine becomes socialized they will be reduced from men of a pro fessional standing to mere subjects of a routinized system of health pres ervation. They also fear the mone tary degradation that would come about if medicine were socialized. To day, over half of our medical cases that require the care and guidance of a doctor are taken by county hospi tals. Is this not socialized medicine? My point in writing this article is to bring the case as close to home as possible. Every student pays a health fee of $2.00 when he registers. This goes for infirmary expenses and to help maintain a nurse and a doctor for cases that require their attention '1ere. .a^ school. This is socialized medicine, but why not carry out a system that has already gone over half way. With the addition of $1.00 more on to the health fee the student could be given complete coverage on any physical disability he may incur while attending school. This extra dollar per person would bring in an additional revenue of around $1,500 per year to the school. This would defray such additional expenses such as operations and ex- rays that would be needed in case of emergencies. If enough interest is taken in this matter I suggest that a committee be appointed by the student council to investigate the matter thoroughly and see if a plan of action cannot be de termined. —Bob Hamilton. Campus And Off Campus Q mint tiiitHmiiiiimiiiiHiHuiiiiiiiiiMtiHiiiimiitiiitiiiiQ '•MM BELLY ACHITIS There seems to be a very keen com petition on this campus between two epidemics. One of these is a good old fashioned bona fide flu epidemic. The other, far more serious, but thank God not so widespread, is an other good old fashioned epidemic of Bellyachitis.

KAMOLA Back from the infirmary: Jean Paul and Lucille Heater. Welcome to our city. Jean Schneider has left our fair domain for Sunnyside, where she has a teaching position. We miss her but wish her luck. Probably everyone in Kamola knows Ernestine Aldrich, who is new this quarter. Jshe is from Aberdeen and attended Grays Harbor Junior Col lege last year thus is classified as a Sophomore. Ernestine's chief in terests seem to be athletics, trumpet, and the cornet. When she was a junior in high school, Ernestine won second place in a music meet, in which eight large high schools in southwestern Washington were com peting. Of 30 pupils, her teacher chose Ernestine Aldrich to play two years, 1934 and 1935, for the Horning Hour of Music, a radio program spon sored by Frederick & Nelson of Seattle. Didn't you hear about Kamola Hall's altruism? Well, sir, it's mighty proud of itself and is not a bit backward about coming forward and telling you. Kamola's powers that be decided that the pep band should by all means go to Cheney to the game over there. They called a housemeeting and all the girls agreed to contribute 10 cents to this worthy^ cause. Proctors made a trip around the dorm and collected the money» When it was counted, it was discov ered to amount to exactly $10. This sum was turned over to Jimmy Smith, rendering him, believe it or not, nearly speechless. We certainly hope that the band can make tfye trip and that our small contribution will really help. 4 x* r E ( Flicker Flashes I —Charles Trainor ••""""""••""•liMMUMtmimmiMiiMimmmmmJijJ "Thp Plainsmen" To the historian perhaps a night mare, but to you and I exceptional entertainment. The picture easily escapes the curse of the typical west erner to which many of us have an aversion. Few of us know enough of the minute details of the lives of Calamity Jane and Wild Bill Hickok to be perturbed by the way Para mount telescoped and warped them to make the picture palatable. The most amazing feature of the picture was the simplicity with which Cecil B. DeMille handled the direc tion. If you are at all acquainted with former DeMille operas you know that simplicity has never been his strong point. "The Plainsmen" lack ed the grandeur, the spectacle, the giganticness etc., that I had antici pated, and for that I was grateful. .Gary Cooper consistently improves with every picture and, he is one of the few present day stars who we will still be enjoying a decade hence. Jean Arthur did a good job of adopting the character of Calamity Jane to her own abilities, as vice versa might have brought forth a feeling of miscasting. An extra or chid to Helen Burgess for an excellent portrayel in her small part. Coming (Audion) "Come and Get It," taken from Edna Ferber's. latest novel of the same name opens Wednesday, with Edward Arnold, Francis Farmer and Joel McCrea in the main roles. Edward Arnold's first noticeable appearance was in "Biagraphy" with Ann Harding and Robert Montgom ery. His part was a small one but he made a very favorable impression and has vise to stardom has been swift and dynamic. His last sirring role was in "Sut ter s Gold," a lemon if there ever was one, but he survived the picture with out any blemishes on his own talents. If 'Come and Get It" is as well made as Arnold is for the part in the Fer- ber story you can't afford to miss it.

OUT OP THE PYRAMIDS ' -I- ' GIRLS' ACTIVIT1 A considerable portion of the Kitti tas Valley has been irrigated and suc cessfully farmed for many years. The Cascade Canal, the Town Ditch, and the West Side Ditch are the larger privately owned canals in the valley. The' Yakima River is the source of supply for these privately owned ditches, which irrigate approximately 30,000 acres of the lower lands -in the valley. Construction on the Town Ditch began in 1885, construction on the West Side Ditch began in 1889, and they started work on the Cascade Canal in 1902. A few ditches of minor importance were built later, bu.t by 1905 the major ground work had been laid for greater agricultural develop ment in the valley. The Cascade Canal takes its water out of the Yakima River about eight miles north of Thorp. The Cascade is an all gravel system, of open ditch construction. It has eight miles of steel flume, and has two tunnels. The canal is allowed 105 cubic second feet of water from the Yakima River until the 16th of July. The district has deeded 16,000 acre feet of water out of Lake Kachees, which it uses to hold it over for the remainder of the season. , It was not lack of capital that some times acted as a brake on the de velopment of irrigation in the region, but on the contrary, the old English Riparian Water Rights law was often a big obstacle that blocked the path of progress. The old riparian law pro vided that every owner of land that bordered on a stream had as much right as all the other owners of land bordering the stream, and that no riparian proprietor could divert the water, for each property holder could demand that the stream, when it got to his land, be "undiminished in quan tity, and unpolluted in quality." In other words, irrigation was illegal. This law stood unchallenged in Eng land and in the eastern part of/the United States, but as soon as the arid west was settled,. there was much litigation over irrigation rights. In some instances the appropriation theory has grown up, which permits one to irrigate provided he can show an economic use for the water he uses. One has only to study the rec ords of law suits over water rights . in this valley to see lhat we still have far to go in the direction of the recognition of water rights by ap propriation. i For many years there has been much talk about a high line ditch for the Kittitas Valley. In 1892 the Kittitas Valley Irrigation Company went ahead with its* plans for a high line ditch, which was to irrigate 85,000 acres of land, some of which was at an elevation of 2,175 feet. ' The dis- • trict had cleared a right of way 100 fpet wide, and 25 miles, long before the panic of 1893 caused them to cease operations. After the comple tion of the Cascade Canal, the agita tion for a high line ditch was eon- t siderably lessened, and plans for the There is to be a badminton tourna ment this week and next for all the girls.

They re port that they had a "swell" time, even though the day was a bit dis agreeable because it was snowing. The pass is really good for skiing. high line ditch did not take definite form until 1920. The Kittitas division is composed principally of the higher lands around the outer part of the valley, which have heretofore had little or no water available or only partially irrigated from creeks, the discharge of which, as the season advances, diminishes to the point where there is insufficient water to supply the irrigation demand during the summer months. The ir rigable area of the project ranges in elevation from 1,500 to 2,200 feet. Water for the district will be diverted from the Yakima River by a low con crete diversion darii, just above the town of Easton. Lake Kachess and Lajte Keechelus will be used as stor-_ age basins. There will be one main canal for a distance of about 25 miles, from Easton to a point about eight miles above Thorp, where the main canal divides to encircle the valley. The district will open up 72,000 acres of irrigable lands. The 72,000 acres have been divided into 40-acre tracts, which have been soil surveyed and classified. The ap praisers set a value to the different tracts according to the soil survey and classification, and the land is not supposed to be sold for a price above its appraisal value. The appraisal value of these lands are in the county records, and they are open to the in spection of the public. It is estimated that the project, when completed, will require about 500 families of new settlers to supplement those now farming the land on a partial water supply. The Kittitas division is the first government project in this region. It will perform an important -service to the valley by putting the higher lands of the valley into use, and therefore be supplementing, rather than duplicating the work of the priv ate projects, which operate in the lower lands of the valley. —Alymer Bright. SCHOOL OFFICE - JUGGLES FIGURES Did you ever wonder about the dis tribution of students in the various departments in school ? Which de partment do you think had the great est percentage of students ? From the Registrar's office we have ob tained some figures relating to the distribution of college work by totals. Naturally, since this is a teacher's college there are more clock hours in the education courses than the rest. Education, psyclology, and philosophy head the list with 1,381.5 clock hours. This is 18.60 per cent. Next to educa tion ai'e the social studies, with a total of 1,285 clock hours or 17.40 per cent. Third in the list are lan guage and literature with the clock hours at 1,246 and 16.70 per cent. Fourth are science, mathematics, and geogx-aphy with 1,213 clock hours and a per cent of 16.40. There is a con siderable di'op to fifth position which is health education at 928 clock hours and 12.50 per cent. Other depart ments are art, 740 clock hours and 9.91 per cent music 473.25 clock hours and 6.76 per cent library with 73 clock hours and 198 per cent shorthand, 39 clock hours and .52 per cent penmanship had 16 clock hours and a per cent of.22 and last was typing with 8 clock hours and .11 per cent. The total clock hours for last quarter was 7402.75. No doubt you have heard many dis cussions on the college loads. Some are groaning about the terrific load that they are carrying. Apything over 16 is usually made public by the over loaded student, even if it is only 16%. Did you know that there were three students during the fall quarter who carried a load of 20? That is four quarter hours more than the average load of 16, which is carried by 185 individuals. There was one person with a load of 19%, six with a load of 18. The number of individuals in crease now as the load decreases and so we have 22 carrying 18 quarter hours, 28 carrying 17% quarter hours, and. 90 at 17. At the opposite ex treme is one individual with three quarter hours, one at four and one at five. There is quite a difference in range. It waisn't so very long ago that those fatal grades came. Recently the Crier gave the Honor Roll for fall quarter. ' However, we thought you might like to know whether you were above or below the school grade quotient is 2.2684. From the grades issued there were 6688.75 in clock hours quality grades, 202 incompletes, and 512 "S" grades (music, P. E. and penmanship) were given. Percentage of each quality grade is: A, 9.34 per cent B. 28.89 per cent .C, 45.46 per cent D, 11.85 per cent, and E, 4.46 per cent. That is the result of the grades for the fall quarter.

PETTIT RETURNS • Maurice Pettit's knee is back in fair shape-again, and now he is able to crawl off the shelf—and is everybody happy? Yes sah. With Pettit lead ing the Cats they will start on the upgrade again. The last three games that Maurice was out of the Wild cats dropped they seem to be lost •without him. Nicholson may not play him on the trip games, but when the Cats pack up Thursday to leave for Oregon you may be sure that Pfettit will not be left behind. VIKINGS MEET CHENEY Tomorrow night the Bellingham Vikings will make their appearance in the tri-normal race when they tangle with Cheney at Cheney. This game means a lot to us because if Bellingham pulls a upset that will put Ellensburg back on "rosy street." Here's hoping that the boys from the Sound come through. BUNSTINE LEADING SCORER Mel Bunstine drew ahead to take the lead in the scoring ladder. He has 7S points, which gives him an aver age of eight points for nine games that he played in. Arnie Faust close ly follows with 71 points. He to has an average of nearly eight points per game. The third man in the race is Hank Boersma with 64 points. He has an average of six points per game. WILDKITTENS DEFEAT EASTON The Wildcats' kittens after defeat ing the Easton high school in a game early in the season by a score of 32 to 25, repeated again Friday night when they whipped the prepsters by a one-point margin, 25 to 24. Dzyacki, of Easton, was high point man with 11, while Lassoie and Smith flipped in four field goals apiece to take high scoring- honors for the Kittens. The tilt was run off in eight min ute quarters, and there never was more than a four-point margin be tween the scores at any time during the fracas. At the end of the first quarter the locals led by a 8 to 5 score, and at the half they were still ahead with the count being 14 to 12. As the teams went into the final fray the count was 19 all. In a* slow last quarter the Kittens managed to flip in three baskets, while the best Easton could muster up was five points, just enough to give the teachers a one- point margin and the ball game. The game ended with the tiny Cats on top of a 25 to 24 score. The standing: Name Bunstine ......... Faust 1. Boresma Mills ... Woodward ..... Woltring .... Vanderbrink .

The intramural race has started with eight battles ending the first round of competition already set tled. Five teams make up the con ference this year lind they are MONT GOMERY'S team, Demert's team, Williams' team, Stedham's team, and Chiotti's' team. ' They are playing rourid robin, that is every team play ing the other five. ' Tjhe first game was played . by Montgomery and Demert on January 27. . The score was 28 to 10 in favor of Demert. The same day Chiotti de feated Williams 16 to 8. The follow ing'day the best game of the season wass played, with William taking a 10 to 18 victory as Montgomery drop petj another. The same day the Chiotti five ran up 40 points to whip Sted ham's club who collected 14 points. It was in this game that the high scorer of the "big little war" last year flipped in 12 baskets for 24 points, and now Chiotti leads in scor ing honors with 32 points in two games. Last Friday, Demerts played Wil liams, and Montgomery met Stedham. Monday, Chiotti took on Montgomei y, and Stedham met Demevts, If you want to see some good bat tles, since the Wildcats aren't playing at home until the 17th of this month, come out and see the intramural boys perform.

Let's go back a few years and see what Pettit was going in high school He was vice president of his school he won four basketball letters and three track letters, he won two awards—a gold basketball trophy for being the most valuable player, and he won the Fleet trophy, for being high point man on his high school track team. Not bad for any prep §chooI athlete. Last year Maurice was out most of the hoop season with illness, and that is why he only made his letter. Pettit is also a cinder, man. Last year he tied for second in the tri-normal meet with a leap of 11.6 feet. Last year's track team chose him as the athlete who gave them the most in spiration and spirit during the sea son. This year Pettit was going like a house of fire on the "maple court" when a twisted knee laid him up, but it won't be long now that Maurice will be able to crawl off thte shelf— there's no getting around to it that the squad misses his services. Well we hope your are back soon because the Wildcats can't seem to win with out you. WILDCATS TRAVEL TO OREGON AGAIN The Ellensburg Normal hotfpsters are preparing themselves for another invasion of Oregon when they meet the strong Linfield College in two games Friday and Saturday and on the 8th they tackle Oregon Normal at Monmouth, and then on the next day the Wildcats end their "barn storming" when they meet Albany College. The Wildcats leave Thursday, and Nicholson expects his squad to be considerably strengthened by the re turn of Maurice Pettit, first string guard who has been 'on the shelf for three weeks with a knee injury suf fered against Portland U. here. In the Linfield battle the Cats will have no easy time knocking, them over, for they shpot any time they get their hands'on the ball, and they also defeated Bellingham in a close battle by a score pf 53 to 52 so you can see for yourself that they believe that a "good offense is a good de fense." Monmouth also nas a strong camp, featuring Ted Dziedzic, a star on de fense as well as on offense. Belling ham had to play superior ball to take them by a score of 47 to 33. The next opponent will be Albany College which the Wildcats whipped here by a score of 45 to 31. Belling ham played them recently, and were stopped cold by Albany's zone de fense, in the first half The half time score was 18 to 16. After the Vikings discovered the way to break up the defense they rallied to make 34 more points to take Albany by the score of 50 to 33. If the Cats expect to win their share of these games they will have to settle down, and forget about the tci-normal race, for they are going to have four husky battles on hand in the short time of five days. Well boys "bon voyage." PORTLAND U. UPSETS WILDCATS IN BOTH ENCOUNTERS PILOTS TAKE FIRST GAME 32 TO 20 SCORE FOR SECOND TILT WAS 23 TO 20 Coach Leo Nicholson's Wildcats crime back from Portland minus two pelts, as the Portland Pilots handed the locals a 32 to 20 and a 23 to 20 licking. O'Donnell, the Portland star forward, stole tho show in the first game when he collected 18 points. He was held to only six points in the second tilt. Faust, guard, led the El lensburg five in the second game with 11 points, while Bunstine was high in the first game with nine points. Coach Nicholson's team saw the vic tory snatched away in the first game in the last few seconds after they had led the Pilots virtually all the way. With the score tied at 20 all and with a minute to go, Harmon, Pilot center, looped in a one-handed shot from the corner of the floor and Clayton, guard, made good one of two free tosses awarded him when the Wild cats fouled twice trying to get the ball. In this tilt the Cats led at the half time, 11 to 10. SUMMARIES First Game Ellensburg (20) Pos.

The playing dis played was the worst excuse of' ft basketball game ever to grace the floor of the quite new pavilion. Vikings Outclassed Because of a recent road trip, a lineup of fresh men who had- not made the. tiip, started. The Cana dians outclassed'this group and ran up a 12 to 2 score in the first five minutes of play. Then a set of vet erans were rushed into the melee they displayed the only bit of basket ball, on the part of the Vikings, dur ing the evening. In short order they ran the score up to 12 all and the half ended with £he score knotted, 15-15. Even though the lead changed hands, the score was tied continually in the last half, such ragged playing prevailed that no excitement could be wrought up by the 'spectators (all seven of them.) Matthison.
