Each year one girl on the campus is elected to reign as queen at the May Prom. A lovely throne of silver is being planned for the queen this year by the decorating committee of the Prom. Nominee From Each Club Every club on the Campus has been invited to nominate a candidate for the contest and all nominations must be listed by April 26. Election April 30 Election will be held Friday, April 30, and the queen -will be capped at the dance on May 1. All contestants will be menlbers of the queen's court. Queenly Qualities Each year the question is asked, "What are the qualities one looks for in a queen?" They are many, and not confined to beauty alone. The girl chosen is one who is attractive, and a general good scout. In other words, the queen should be a typical C. W. C. E. co-ed whom we all like and admire. Attend Prom So be looking around,, folks, and nominate your candidates soon and plan to attend the Prom so you can cheer the winner. TIME—MARCHES ON! In most colleges the girls usually march too, but around here it seems that things are different (this is getting to be a habit) because our girls do their marching in the opposite direction. If you doubt this, just take a squint out of your classroom window some bright, sunny afternoon and watch the fair maidens of C. W. C. E. play drop the handkerchief, tag-your-it, or wash-de-dub-dub-dub (the name is something like that) on the Edison School playground. Behold! All of the lovely creatures are to be seen romping about the playfield each acting just like a little boy in his first pair of long trousers, afraid to really have some fun with the rest of the dear kiddies, but still wishing to go through all the motions. And so the girls frolic about, gurgling delightedly when some cute little tot drops the handkerchief behind them so they, too, can chase around the circle at a golloup, shrieking to the high heavens all the while. They call that education. THIS COUNTRY is just full of in­ teresting little towns. Down in the little one-horse "metropolis" of Seene, Texas, not a solitary soul in the whole place does a speck of work on Saturday*. It so happens that ev­ eryone there is a member of the same church, the Seventh Day Adventist. It is rather unusual that a whole town be composed entirely of people of one religion, but even more unusual when that same town hasn't even a single policeman. And the reason why it doesn't need a policeman is still more nnusual. It's one of those rare, rare places where the people are honest . moof to make unnecessary the maintenance of a police.department. In Zion City, Illinois, everybody in town believes the earth to be flat. It would be' interesting indeed to hear how the Zion (Sty brain-trusters would go about explaining the "how" of both Clyde Pangborn's round-the World flight and Admiral Byrd's trip over the North and South Poles. De spite the town's geography of 1492 vintage, they do a tremendous busi ness manufacturing paper and selling it all over the United States at prices that have made the rest of the coun try's paper manufacturers wonder how it is done so inexpensively. The Amish colony in East Lampeter, Pennsylvania, is another of those odd places. Last week two of their repre sentatives appeared before the Su­ preme Court in OPPOSITION, mind you, to the granting of a loan for building a new consolidated school by the PWA. The two shabby, bearded men dressed in old homespun created • quite a stir as they stalked down the aisles of the hushed and stately court­ room. They "explained that the reason why they were protesting was that their religion prohibits the use of motor transportation, and their chil­ dren would have to travel to the new school house by bus. 0-C'S HAVEFTUN: SCAVENGER HUNT Eat at Webster's After­ ward Report Fine Time COLLEGE INVITES HIGH SCHOOL SRS. TO HEAR M. HINDUS Thursday, April 15, Date For Renowned World Traveler For the assembly on April 15 at 10 o'clock in the College Auditorium, the Senior class of the Ellensburg High School has been invited as guests of the assembly. The speaker of this1 assembly is Maurice Hindus, the great author, world traveler and lecturer. The school is very glad to have se­ cured such an authority to lecture here. Many townspeople have called Dr. McConnell's office to express their appreciation to the school for having Maurice Hindus here. Several have heard him before and are anxious to hear Mr. Hindus again. Mr. Hindus will speak on Russia, of which he is an authority. He returns to Russia practically every year to view the conditions existing there. He has traveled throughout Russia and Siberia and gone to all parts of these countries. He is so interested in his native land that he makes his talks so vivid that everyone sees Russia as he does. I am sure the understanding you gain from his lecture will be far more than if you read books on the subject. His humor and sincerity make hi^ talks outstanding. FIRST DAY OF IN­ LAND EMPIRE Fifty Off-Campus girls attended the biking, hiking, and skating party Fri­ day evening. A scavenger hunt pro­ vided the evening's entertainment with the hikers winning first prize. Dine At Webster's After an hour and a half of looting the town, all hunters returned to Web ster's Cafe where headquarters for checking-in were held. While every- one was busily eating reports were given of the experiences encountered in obtaining the desired articles. Difficult Specimens to Obtain Some of the most difficult searches reported were for a piece of green chalk, a time table from the Mil­ waukee depot, which was closed, 1936 license plate, a live cat, and a live angle worm. Some of the most prized possessions were Jim Smith and his decorative Ford, Mr. Minch's signature, Professor Stephen's cigar and signature, Louns- berry's crutch, and Ham Anderson's W. Seventeen. Mrs. Holmes very gra­ ciously contributed an original poem to help the skaters along. The evening drew to a close with community singing by the group with Mary Jane Getty playing the accom­ paniment at the piano. Dr. McConnell, Professor Stephens and Dr. Sparks Lead Groups Dr. McConnell spent Friday and Saturday in Seattle attending a meet­ ing of the State Curriculum Com- missiion that is being held at the Ed- mond Meany Hotel. INLAND EMPIRE Yesterday, the first day of the 39th session of the Inland Empire was held. Professor Stephens of Ellensburg was the chairman of the Psychology and Education sectional meeting. Dr. L. D. Sparks and Dr. Robert E. McConnell led the group discussion in this sec­ tion. On Monday and Tuesday at the Northwest Association of Secondary and High Schools, Mr. Whitney repre­ sented our school. This meeting had quarters. Tomorrow, Friday, the A Capella Choir of 48 persons will present a half-hour program before the general session at Spokane. The Edison School and other public schools of Ellensburg will have their spring vacation during the days of the Inland Empire, 7-9. Inspired by P. G. Wodehouse, stu­ dents at Nazareth College have or­ ganized a Goon Club, which has adopted this slogan: A pun a day keeps your enemies away." Campus politics at the University of Illinois went "professional" re­ cently when seniors used a voting ma­ chine to count ballots in the election of class officers. iilifil For What? Painted by Elbert M. Jacluon an • Contribution to A* EMERGENCY PEACE CAMPAIGN WHAT DO YOU THINK OF WAR? Admiral Byrd, Mrs. Roosevelt, and Dr. Fosdick spoke April 6, over the N. B. C., for the purpose of launching an inclusive peace campaign. Admiral Byrd, as a result of a six months' solitary vigil in a hut in Antarctica, decided to devote his life to peace. While alone, Jiway from all contacts, his mind ex­ plored many fields. He came to the conclusion that the greatest folly of all human follies is war. Byrd stated in his address that one of the rea­ sons why the world was on the brink of war was due to the defeatist, jellyfish attitude on the part of the people who desire to maintain peace. He stated that any human'problem can be solved by an intelli­ gent arbitration of the question. The nations should be willing to gather around the conference table, and settle their disputes by a "bloodless" force. Byrd stated that if the world would spend the same amount of money for peace, as they do for war, and preparation for war, then there would be little dan­ ger of war. Byrd felt that the United States would be af­ fected by a major conflict. He stated that the next war would be a clash of civilization. He said that our moral, and cultural, as well as our physical de­ velopment would receive a serious set back in the next war. Speed in transportation and the great strides we have made in technological development has literally made the world smaller. The whole world is our market place. The United States must play the game with the*rest of the nations. It can not isolate itself. Mrs. Roosevelt stated that neutrality was diffi­ cult to maintain in time of war. She claimed that it is necessary to study the causes of war, so that we tfill be able to meet the issues, and able to present a sound peace program. The next war, she says, will not be between armies. It will be a war between peoples, in which the airplanes carry cannons of de­ struction, and there is no such thing as a non-com­ batant. Our peace programs must be more than negative gestures if we are to maintain peace. There can not be a spirit of cooperation as long as there is ho trust among the nations of the world. Before there can be peace, individuals must have attitudes that are consistent with peace. Dr. Fosdick claimed that the efforts of the peace movements are not coordinated, and that, rather than pulling together and fighting war, they are all fighting each other. He said that we need an inclu­ sive peace program that will be acceptable to the p]ain American man. , We need to forget our sec­ tarianism. The peace movements should emphasize their common objectives, rather than emphasize their different techniques. If one will thumb back the pages of history, he will find that it was during the month of April that the war drums usually beat. Paradoxically enough, it is during this same month that the peace move­ ments get under way, and the public is made con­ scious of the question of war and peace. April 22 (Continued on pace 2) OFF-CAMPUS GIRLS TO BE HOSTESSES TO 0. C. MEN FRIDAY Novel, Varied Party — No-Date Affair To Take Place Friday Night Activities of the O f f - Campus club for this week end center about the party to be held Friday night, April 9, at 8 o'clock in the old gym. Men Receive Invitations Invitations have been sent to all men off-campus residents and each one is expected to attend. Committee Chairmen Named Marie Floyd, General Chairman, reports that it's to be a very gala affair. Her committees include: In­ vitations, Grace Walters Entertain­ ment, Lois Hubbell Hostess, Beatrice Eschbach and Refreshments, Pauline Martin. Varied Program A very diversified program of cards, dancing, roulette, Bingo, and specialty numbers is being planned. There will be something for everyone to do every minute of the time. No-Date Affair There will be no dates at the affair and if each of the 137 off-campus boys attend we are certain that the 126 off- campus girls will prove to be very entertaining hostesses. The affair will be very informal with sport clothes being the prevailing costume. Don't Forget All off-campus residents, men and women, are urged not to forget the party at 8 o'clock Friday night. ODD ACCIDENT FINISHES TRIP Three C. wT C. E. Girls Injured Sunday Evening Maybe Ripley could tie this one, but it's not likely. However, the accident which occurred last Sunday night on the homeward trip of the natural dancers who had visited Seattle to watch the performance of Martha Gra­ ham, famous American dan- seuse, was certainly one of the oddest things which fate ever managed to pull off. The three girls who were injured— Florence Massouras, Martha Whit- taker, and Lois Fuller—are all re­ covering very satisfactorily. None of the injuries sustained were very seri­ ous, although they were painful. . Odd Accident The manner in which the accident occurred was certainly a complicated one, and the blame can scarcely be laid to any one source, since about four cars and one truck were con­ cerned in the incident. None at Faalt In response to i Go Ahead signal given by the truck ahead of him," says Lois Fuller, "Fleming Byers at­ tempted. to pass the truck but saw im­ mediately that another car was ap­ proaching. Unable to get back into the place between the truck and the car in which Mrs. Nicholson was driv­ ing us three girls, Fleming was forced into a ditch on the left hand side of the road. The approaching car also careened into the ditch in order to avoid a smashup. "Then1 we got ootr of the car to see what damage was done, and as we were all standing by the side of the second car which had gone into the ditch another car came from ahead. iTMi driver didn't see either the two cars or the people standing about, until too late. She was going at a speed where it was impossible to stop instantly and so ran into us." All three girls were injured on the feet and legs, as well as being badly shaken. Florence Massouras was pin­ ned between two cars for 10 minutes before she could be removed. All re­ ceived immediate medical attention and rest in the infirmary. HOW TO BE FAMOUS English Department Coop erating With Magazine in Search for Literary Wizards FINE ASSEMBLY A PRIL 13 AT 10 Beatrice Edmonds to Give Broadway Play Review The English, department has just announced that it is now very possible for all students wishing to participate in creative writing to do so—and may­ be become famous. Frontier and Mid­ land, the only literary magazine in the Pacific Northwest, has created a department of literary contributions from the undergraduate students in the colleges of this section of the country. Frontier and Midland is primarily regional magazine of the Pacific Northwest, but it has a national re­ putation. It is the third ranking short story magazine in tr.e United States. Many a present-day writer of con­ siderable fame either is now writing for Frontier and Midland or got his start by writing for it. The following are some suggestions for those who would like to compete: 1. Material that is submitted need not be regional in nature, although it is hoped that undergraduates will write about what they know. 2. Stories, unless exceptionally fine, should not be longer than 4,500 words. Sketches will be used only sparingly. Humorous sketches or tales or squibs are much desired—but the humor should spring out of human character or situations. Poems, again unless unusually fine, should not ex­ ceed 40 lines. 3. All material must be typed, double-spaced, and be accompanied by return postage. Each manuscript must bear the name and address of the in­ structor or agency that is submitting it, as well as the name, college, and address of its author. 4. No material can be paid for. 5. The heads of the English depart­ ments in the colleges are to act as assistant editors by going over all submitted material and sending in only the best on the campns for that month. The Beatrice Edmonds' assembly will be held on April 13 at 10 o'clock in the College Auditorium. If the name of Beatrice Edmonds does not suggest anything to you perhaps the fact that she presents interpretive play reviews will interest you. To Present Play Review Miss Edmonds alwayB spends a month in the New York theaters when the season is at its height. She was in New York all of the month of Jan- uary and is going to present a re­ view of one of the plays she attended while there. , Reviews in Demand There are very few plays that tour the country at the present time and so the demand for new plays in re­ view is met by Miss Edmonds. Well Equipped She is equipped unusually well for the work as she has youth, a voice that combines music with power and possess a magnetic stage presence. Miss Edmonds is a graduate of Stan­ ford University and has traveled widely. Presents Captivating Entertainment The theater presents the color, moods, and manners of human living. In the play reviews of Beatrice Ed­ monds, you get a succinct informative talk of productions current on Broad­ way. Thus the x-eview gives up-to-the- minute information and capticating entertainment. Miss Edmonds is coming here on the recommendation of Mr. Lembke. W, A. A. GOES ON BREAKFAST HIKE Plan Camping Trip, Tennis Tournament, and Stunt The W: A. A. held a regular meet­ ing Thursday night, April 1, at 8 o'clock in N-130. Nominee For May Prom The club nominated Dixie Graham for their candidate for the May Prom. Dixie Graham is a very popular junior, who has held offices in the club. Plan Breakfast Hike The girls planned a breakfast hike for Thursday morning, April 8. Other Events Discussed They also discussed other coming events, some of which are a camping trip, a tennis tournament, and the stunt for the Press Club Revue. New Cup to Be Bought The girls decided to buy a new W. A. A. sportsmanship cup which will* have the school's new name on it. This cup is awarded annually to the girl who best typifies the ideal W. A.

Hinch PEACE MOVEMENTS Peace movements seem to have become a part of American culture. Carnegie Endowments, Anti-War Leagues. Emergency Peace Campaigns, Future Veterans of Foreign Wars, Peace Questionnaires, continue to pre­ sent themselves to the American public. Robbed of their sentimantality and some of their impraetibility these peace movements still serve the worthy purpose of mak­ ing folks "peace conscious." If all these movements can induce the American people more especially American youth to do some critical thinking and thorough investi­ gation into the serious problem, they do not strive in vain. And the Campus Crier would appreciate some think­ ing a,rid cooperation on the part of our home student body in- filling, out the peace questionnaires.

Open Forum It has been suggested that an Off- Campus boys' club should be formed and I wish to say thatlthinkthatthese boys should be organized in Bome manner. Possibly as the boys' sec­ tion of an Off-Campus Students' Or­ ganization. or, if the girls' object to that, simply as a boys' club. Several good results could come of this. The main one that I think oi would be to give the boys who do not have close connection with their college socially the understanding that they are members in good stand­ ing and have significance in its af­ fairs. Further such an arrangement would permit them to deal with other phases of college life as a group in the most effective way. Also any points of view that members might have col­ lectively could be handled more ef­ ficiently. I believe that in the near future the boys living off-campus will be asked to gather for a discussion on this point.

Do you realize, dear reader, that people look down on the ones who study more than two hours a day? That the aforesaid students are con­ sidered, at best, rather queer and dis­ agreeably "different?" That you are a traitor to the student body at large if you attempt to do the minimum work which is required by each and all of your instructors?" That you are considered a racketeer, or at least unduly favored if you show interest in a school subject? That the only excuse you can then offer is that you hate certain other subjects? That these views are held not only by con­ temporary students but by the general public? As a final proof, let me state that I fear to sign my name here, and that I feel I should now be classed with Benedict Arnold (traitor), Robinson Crusoe (had to live alone), and the Little Red ,Hen (no one else would, but she did). Voice of Experience. BARBARA PFENNING Winter Sports Queen RUTH WEED Homecoming Queen While one queen for the year 1936-37 is yet to be chosen by CWCE students—the May Prom Queen •—two such members of royalty are seen every day on the campus, Homecoming Queen Ruth, and Win­ ter Sports Queen Barbara. Ruth Weed, who was selected by members of the Knights of the Claw to reign over Homecoming festivities, will be a charming blond graduate this summer. She calls Wenatchee "home" and while a senior in high school was sent as a Washington rep­ resentative to the national 4H convention at Chicago. Before coming to the Central Washington College, Queen Ruth attended WSC. For the second time in one year, Barbara Pfen­ ning, a vivacious brunette, was chosen this spring jto be a member of royalty. Nearly a year ago, as a senior in the Ellensburg high school, she attended the Wenatchee Apple Blossom Festival as Princess Ellensburg. As a freshman in CWCE, she was elected thiis winter by members of the student body to reign as Winter Sports Queen Barbara, Now the college awaits the announcement of a new queen, to reign over the May Prom and to form the year's annual fch¥e6Bome.

It's this: "Makfe studying the correct so­ cial pi'ocedure, arid it will immediately become popular." Does that sound paradoxical or nutty? Then kindly explain the following expressions: 1. "He never cracks a book, yet he always gets by. Gee! he's smart!" 2. "She gets all A's but she sure is dull. Studies all the time/' 3. "HaVeri't anything else to do, so I guess 111 study." 4.

ETS AT Kamola Hall seemed to be a rather empty place last Saturday after twenty of the girls had left at nine o'clock in the morning on a science field trip to Vantage. The girls re­ turned just a few minutes before din­ ner, their pockets bulging with rocks, bugs, and flowers and their faces covered with about an. inch of dust. We had a grand dust-—I mean time— they said . Five other Kamola girls, Marie Throssell, Lois Fuller, Ruth Weed, Constance Cutler,: and Helen Fair- brook drove with Miss Wentworth and Miss Puckett to Seattle to see a dance drama presented by Martha Graham, the famous esthetic dancer Grayce Calkins and her roommate, Doris Sehmel, spent an enjoyable day Sunday with Grayce's parents, Mr. and Mrs. E.

I sat in a win­ dow of a third floor room this Sun­ day morning hoping tp get a second look at some of those new clothes which were being worn to church last Sunday. Do you think I saw some of them?

Take Lily Pons' operatic voice, four goofy swing artists, THE BLUE DANUBE —mix them up with a little finesse and you get one of the best musical numbers the screen has put forth in many a moon. And on top of that the futility of a chorine trying to do a speciality number with the soles of her shoes covered with soap, and you leave the theater weak but happy. The little French doll has more than a beautiful voice to give to "zee" public and the rapid comedy pace that Jack Oakie and his fellow swirigsters maintained did not leave her behind. THE GIRL FROM PARIS is orie of the unexpected bright lights of the cinema season and should establish Miss Pons with the theater-goers and the Hollywood moguls as a very ves- satile lady. All of which I hope brings future results. COMING—Thursday, Friday and Saturday, WE'RE ON THE JURY, with Victor Moore and Helen Brod- erick.

TIftE cmws -CRIER FIFTH GRADE ASSEMBLY Edison School Sees Fine Demonstration of Airplanes LIBRARY NOTES Monday March 29, at eleven o'­ clock the Fifth Grade, under Miss Johanson, gave an assembly on Air­ planes, a splendid demonstration of learning acquired by the activity method tangible results that are of great professional interest to every student inteilding to teach. This As­ sembly had been postponed from an earlier date scheduled at nine o'clock. The eleven o'clock hour proved to be too short for the pupils to cover all the material they had prepared so the following Thursday at ten they fiftished it and repeated some of the previous program for Miss Hebeler's Activities Class. The Assembly was the result of the study of a unit on Airplanes which nWturally came to include weather signs' and reports, so vitally important to flying. The pupils became so ih- terested in what they learned that they wanted to share it with the other grades, hence the Assembly. All of the material presented was prepared by the pupils and had to be passed by the whole class as satisfactory be­ fore it could be given before an audi­ ence. The program included a short his­ tory of flying froni Icarus, whose wings were melted off by the sun, through the Wright Brothers, down to Amelia Earhart's unsuccessful at- tethpt to fly around the world, includ­ ing'. all the important flights. These flights were charted on a large map which they had traced on wrapping p&'pei'. Then they gave talks on dif­ ferent kinds of airplanes, illustrated with drawings and pictures. Next they touched upon important aids to a.viatiort", such as oxygen tanks and parachutes. The question was asked, "What keeps the plane in the air?" ahdt the explanation' of air currents set up by the prop'ellor with the result­ ing air pressure on the under side of th& wings was demonstrated with a kite We&thfer came next/ and a large, chiart' showing' wind belts \Vas ex­ plained An experiment was per­ formed here sho'wing how warm air fi'om the equatorial regions and low pressure areas caused' prevailing winds. A dramatization of a story about weather signs came next, the pupils taking pains to show which signs were Wue, with scientific reasons, and which were only tradition. The second program continued from here with a dramatization of the workings of a weather bureau and how weather re­ ports influence people in all walks of life. A short history of balloons, dirigi­ bles " their development and important flights was given next, illustrated •with drawings. IVorii this unit the pupils gained concepts1and' undeistandings. of Geog­ raphy, Science, History, Language, and Mathematics. They acquired' skills in: READING maps, charts, diagrams, statistical tables and reference books for information. LANGUAGE — to express them­ selves in explanations to write re­ ports and give them orally to speak before the Assembly to. write, spell and use correctly an increased vocabu- • lary. Dramatization, a speech activi­ ty 'is included here. MATHEMATICS—they drew plans and designs to scale gained an in­ sight into altitude, distances and Great Circle Navigation. ART—they drew charts and dia­ grams and used aircraft as' motives iri design. In SCIENCE they gained learnings of reasons for wind belts, the use of air pressure in flying, and the use of the airplanes in saving lives and pro­ moting health. They gained valuable social learn­ ings such as working together for the good of the whole group, working to­ gether without friction, helping each other in sharing books and materials and in the Assembly, and considera­ tion for the audience in giving talks and reports. The Assembly demonstrated very clearly that the unit had. given the pu­ pils a functional knowledge of almost the entire curriculum—Reading, Writ­ ing, Spelling.. Arithmetic, Geography, History, Language, Hygiene and Art, all included naturally by the children oh their- own responsibility, a far cry indeed from the formal classroom work of yesterday. —L. L. Hahn. The automobile chug-chugged its way into the American scene as the tumultuous twentieth century began. Nobody took this "foolish contrap­ tion" very seriously. It was a passing fad—a relatively harmless toy for young, bloods of the day to play with. The fad, however, did not fade. In­ stead, the automobile became an all- important factor in modern civiliza­ tion. . The display table in the Library during the past week has been devoted to materials one can find in period­ icals and books on the automobile. A huge chart shows through sketches the rapid evolution of the motor car from the time the "horseless carri­ age" struck consternation into the hearts of dumb animals (and others not so dumb) up to the present day. Also included in the exhibit is an article from the January issue of FORTUNE on th6 Packard motor car and the decision of its president, Al- vin Macaulay to exploit its golden name. This decision was not under­ taken lightly but was stimulated by the depression although it was not acted upon until the depression was almost over. You Bet Your Life, a pamphlet found on the display table, is a review of America's automobile accident record. Harry Barsantre, Supervisor of the Traveler's News Bureau, says this in the foreword of the bulletin, "Continue to bet your life, to substi­ tute chance for caution and uncertain­ ty for safety or will you by driving and walking sanely do your part to end this senseless lottery?" There are several other books and pamphlets included in the display, such as the "Story of Knee Action" and "We Drivers," but one which aroused great interest is "Research— Our Eye to the Future," published by the General Motors Research Division This pamphlet is devoted to the im­ portant part research and engineering play in the rapid development of the motor car.

CAMPUS CRIER TO Secure Attitudes War Toward CHILDREN FROM WOODLAND VISIT II P. RAILROAD JAME§ MURSELL OF COLUMBIA GIVES ADDRESS Professor James L MnrselT, asso­ ciate professor of education at Co­ lumbia Teachers College, gaVe a \erf interesting lecture on modern trends in educational psychology at an ate sembly which was held a week ago Monday. Says No "Modern" Psychology Professor Mursell made the distinc tion that there is no truly "modern' psychology. However, he spoke of some of the present trends in psy­ chology. He made the point that the fore imposing scftne of the subjects mind should be allowed to develop be- such as mathematics on it. Brain Not Everything in. Learning - Another fact which he presented was that other things besides the brain determine the results of learn­ ing—this was illustrated by reference to golf and Latin. Present Trend Professor Mui'sell closed his lec­ ture by stating that the dominant present trend was to not give a sub­ ject until the individual is , ready for it. He stated that a change in the present curriculum would be neces­ sary and that this would have to be done gradually. Addresses Classes Here Professor Mursell spoke to the psy­ chology classes during the hour fol­ lowing the assembly. ESSAY CONTEST GOES INTO FINAL MONTH What do you think of war? If a war should start have you ever ston ped to realize just what you would do ? No, I don't suppose that you have. Within the next few days there will be placed in your mail boxes a copy of a list of questions which have been circulated on the campus of the University of Washington and three other colleges of the country. We should appreciate, very much, your filling out these papers and placing them in the open forum box in the library. Professor Ralph H. Guridlach, of the* department of psychology, University of Washington, is circulating these questionnaires in order to' secure any significant indications and' compari­ sons of the eastern or western school attitudes. It is our desire to help Professor Gundlach as ntiich as p6s- siM£ iii securing this information! When the tabulations have ibeen completed, the Campus Crier will prirtt thW results of his findings for youf information. Please cooperate: with us to the best of your ability by an­ swering these questionnaires promptly and by placing them in the open forum box' immediately. Visit Union Pacific RR As First Actual Experience For many years the educators have been attempting to give more thor­ ough instruction by giving their pupils actual ' experience. The pupils of Woodland Public Schools saw their greatest illustration of this new trend when the pupflftj.' in the first three grades were taken' for a trip to Ka- lanit oh the Union Pacific railroad. The pupils first became interested in trains while watching them switch­ ing on the tracks near their homes. In the classroom the students asked many questions thus giving a motive for the study of trains. Under the careful management of Miss Wini­ fred Morton, a former student of C. W. C. E., the pupils made trips to the depot, stories were read, and other de­ tails were arranged to prepare the classes for the trip. Finally the great day arrived and the classes accompanied by Miss- Mor­ ton, Miss Hall, and Mr. Heath, the superintendent of the school, walked down to the station and boarded a special car for the trip to Kalama. As a guarantee that, the pupils would see and hear, first hand, all the detils of the train, Mr. Stanley Hoffeditz, the Traveling' Traffic Agent for the company, came down from Chehalis to personally conduct the children through the parlor, pullman, and din­ ing cars. All the material in this study was written up and made into books which ate on display in the classroom. The third grade took up this study as its first work on a unit on trahsporta'- tioii. f his will be followed by studies on aviation and shipping1. "-•••J V !.• ^ ^ /./ DAVID MEARS.

Less than a month now remains before the final closing date of the essay competition for college and uni­ versity students on "How Advertising Benefits the Consumer." This competition, sponsored by Ad- vex-tising Age, The National News­ paper of Advertising, Chicago, calls for essays of not more than 1,000 words on this subject, and offers a total of $500 in cash prizes, plus an. all-expense trip, to New York City this summer for the principal winner. The deadline for entries is May 15, 1937. It is open without restriction to all and universities in the United States. First prize is $250 in cash, plus a trip to New York City, where the win­ ner will be given his award. Second award in the competition is $100 in cash, third award is $50, and there are ten additional awards of $10 each. There is. nothing to buy as a require­ ment for entry in the competition, and the rules are very simple. Complete details may be secured from the Con­ test Secretary, Advertising Age, 100 East Ohio Street, Chicago. PATRONIZE CRIER ADVERTISERS Medals to Be Awarded For Dramatic Works Students of public, private, and •parochial schools and colleges, as well as adults who are not professional^ playwrights, will be intensely inters ested in the projects of the United States Constitution Sesquicentennial Commission to secure dramatic ma­ terial to be presented during the cele­ bration of the 150th anniversary of the formation of the Constitution, which begins on the 17th of next Sep­ tember. Not only will this project be an in­ centive towards creative writing but it will stimulate among all students a desire for greater knowledge of the formation of the Constitution. The Commission hopes to secure worthy plays depicting the constitu­ tional history, background of the Con­ stitution,' and the Philadelphia Con­ vention, which will be extensively used in schools, churches, and organized group's of men, women and youth. The general plan of operation pro vides for three classifications of plays: (1) competition for high school stu­ dents (Juniors and Seniors) in one act play (2) competition for stuL derits in colleges and universities in a one-act play and (3) competition for teachers and directors of dramat ics in plays of one act or more. Material offered must be submitted not later than May 7, 1937, to the Drama Chairman of this State, who is acting in cooperation with the State Constitution Comfission. This con­ test for high-school students termi­ nates with the State contest. Those open to college students and teachers will be extended from a State to a National Contest. The National Commission will gfve a Medal in silver and bronze to the State winners and a Shrine of the Constitution to the persons in the Na­ tion winning first place in plays.

THE CAMPUS CRIER HARRY THE HORSE SAYS 'GOLF LADDER SET FOR COMPETITION The Crier staff welcomes to its crew of sports writers the new Sports Editor, JIM LOUNSBERRY. Jim as most of you know was one of our galloping halfbacks on the football team last fall, and is qualified to give you sports fans the inside on such things as track. The new editor has chosen John Sodye and Clayton Holt to gather the choice bits of news and in this way keep you informed with the latest dope. Seattle got off to a good start in the opening series of the Pacific Coast League season, but how long will it last. Just as long as they get good pitching from their mound staff is my guess. The Indians have great power with their bats, but if their ' pitchers cannot hold down the oppos­ ing team what good will it do? While we are on the subject of baseball, I wonder what Yakima is going to do with two good baseball teams at the same time. The fans will have to divide their attention between the team they followed so. en thusiastically last season and the new team which they have entered in the new Western International League This new league will give the base­ ball fans of Eastern Washington an opportunity to see good professional ball more often. The teams of the Pacific Coast League are using this circuit to season the young material wliich they could not use this year. _j J" Did you see the C. W. C. E. foot ball flash in the movies the other night? He looked as he actually is. There are many on this campus who wish that they had the opportunity that you had, Stedham. If there isn't something done about the fight between Braddock-Louis on June 22, the poor Sports reporters are going to have a high time trying to keep up on their assignments. The Poughkeepsie Regatta is scheduled to be held on the same day. Oh me, that is the life of a sports reporter!' INTRAMURAL SPORTS Tom Stevens, popular light athlete, was the winner of the handball singles tourney conducted by the Plays and Games class. Doubles tourney is next to be played off. CAPPA SCORES PAR 74 It is becoming: increasingly difficult to maintain the high standards of the University of Illinois band, says Di­ rector A. A. Harding, because other schools are enticing prospective musi­ cians with scholarships. Thirty-four males at the University of North Dakota are taking a home management course, which includes problems of food, problems of eti- qpttte, selection of food in relation to Hat and problems in family relation- ritips and budgeting. Contrary to a notice in the last issue of the Crier, P. E. credit is being given for the softball group for boys being conducted at 4:00 P. M. (of course) It is believed that many boys failed to turn out because of the misunder­ standing. More players are welcome Decathlon scores are being tabu­ lated at the P. E. office. It appears that Bill Carey is high man with a score, of 825.8 compared with the rocord of 853.0. Other scores are: Keith Bowers, 736.9 Ferdinand (the skier) Holm- berg, 735.2. While it is believed that most of the numerous scores are un­ der 700 further check may reveal several new highs. A complete list will be forthcoming. The long-waited-for golf ladder has been started. Thte boys have turned in their first scores of the year and settled their starting positions on the ladder. Owing to weather conditions lately, the golfers have not been able to play much, but as soon as the weather clears up, there will probably be some radical changes in the ladder McLeod has not turned in any score yet this spring and this probably ex plains his position dipkhe list. It is thought that he will fee on one of the top rungs before long. The ladder is as follows: 1, Cappa 2, Dickson 3, Fitterer 4, Webster 5, Cooper 6, Pinckard 7, McLeod.: So far the most spectacular score of the year was made by Cappa, who batted a round at par 74. This score would win three points in any tri- normal meet. BASEBALL TALK STIRS CAMPUS TRACK TURN-OUT IS LARGEST IN MANY SEASONS COMPETITION Ellensburg's track season is ushered in by the largest turnout and toughest schedule since its reorganization. Running and relay events are strong, while those con­ cerned are a bit dubious about weight and field events. Hartman, undefeated last year in The College Varsity tennis team is in training for its future meets. Those out include: Tom Stephens, Don Thompson, Tom Bostic, Lloyd Mitchell, Bob Carr, J. Vanderbrink, Jim Smith, and W. Mills. (Physical Condition) A fine illustration of the import­ ance of correct physical condition for athletic activity is the case of Bobby Jones. Jones, onetime king of the links and holder of 13 major titles fell down to 42nd place in the $50,000 Augusta National Tournament in Florida. His score was nine below par while the first place winner hit six above par. Jones' failure was at­ tributed to his lack of ability to con­ centrate on his game, though his ad­ vanced age was a contributary cause. There has been some talk of or­ ganizing a hard baseball team on the campus. Such an organization will have ample opportunity for competi­ tion, since many independent teams operate in this territory during a long pre-vacation period. Most of the farming districts and many of the surrounding towns sponsor teams. A couple years ago your reporter organized a team, collaborated in forming the Kittitas County Junior Baseball League and had some fun before the league collapsed. It seems the boys in Cabin Creek and Cle Elum had to go back to work after cessa­ tion of labor troubles in the Upper County and couldn't find time to con­ tinue their baseball. The county schedule was, of course, disrupted and the remaining games were played as independents. At the present time baseball in this area consists of the independents and the American Leg­ ion Junior League. Mere writing ability isn't the most important requirement for a would-be newspaperman, says Prof. John L. Brumm, chairman of the University of Michigan's journalism department. "Bounding health" is his greatest necessity. ...Si tsou Co# Everybody enjoys refreshing mildness in a cigarette... everybody likes good taste and pleasing aroma.

INTEREST IN TENNIS GROWS Tennis has taken on a new meaning in these parts in the last three years. Prior to that time the court facilities of Ellensbnrg were the old college courts and a single private one. The building of the short courts at the high school and the fine ones here gave an impetus to the game which apparently won't be checked. On warmer days the courts are centers of activity. It is reasonable to be­ lieve that a few stars should rise on these courts in time. Right now it isn't safe to enter the gymnasium during the 10 o'clock P. E. session for all the reaphyte tennis players spank­ ing the atmosphere with their rackets. SOME FUN SAYS BILL STEPHENS The originality of some of our golfers is amazing. The other day we met Bill Stevens carrying a mon­ strous leather bag which purportedly contained golf clubs. Anyway he was carrying a' club and its mates mus have been somewhere about. Follow­ ing Bill was a large, black, hairy dog, nearby was a doormat. Bill turns the doormat upside down, places a ball carefully upon it, dramatically takes stance, and lets go with a swing that sends the ball way out of sight—in the weeds. The dog glances at Bill, then laws down. Another pill flies down the fairway and Plyto takes his cue. After sniff­ ing the mat in his best professional manner, he dashes off down the field with Bill in pursuit, mat and all. TELESCOPE CLUB ORGANIZED THIS YEAR: POPULAR the Quarter mile, looks even better this year. He will also run the 220. Honeycutt, local boy who holds the valley record in the 440 from two years ago, will run in that event as w«ll as the 220. Crabb, who is one of the best pros­ pects will run the 440 and the relay. Don Shingler, local two-year letter- man, will major in the half-mile. He has a chance to break the Tri-College .record in that event. This boy is back from, a year's retirement and is going to make up for lost time. Ham Montgomery, a transfer from the U. of W., was forced, out of com­ petition last season by illness, appears very good in the' miie and half-mile. Farris, a versatile Freshman from Centralia, centers his attention on the pole vault, discus and high jump. Anderson, able footballer from Wapato,. throws the javelin. Suttun, also from Wapato, will com­ pete in the high jump. ELLENSBURGITES ENJOY SMOKER This winter several C. W. C. E. students got together and organized the Ellensburg Amateur Telescope Builders and Astronomers, electing Howard Kaynor president. The or­ ganization has as its purpose: the study ojf astronomy, the construction and maintenance of astronomical in­ struments, and the dissemination in this area of practical information con­ cerning astronomy. Charter mem­ bers are Howard Kaynor, John Sodya, and Ralph Schreiner. Members are not solicited and are accepted entirely upon their viewpoint—and purse. At the present time the above members have under construction three instru­ ments with leases of 12, 8, and 4 inches, respectively. It is expected that these instruments and a solar telescope under consideration by the club will be in operation by fall. The larger instrument will probably be available at times to C. W. C. E. astronomy classes and possibly will be a feature of the fair in September. Howard has a six-inch lunar tele­ scope at his home on Craig's hill, which was a feature of the club's winter sessions. Members report that one of the most interesting obser­ vances was the changing of the rings cf Saturn in December. In this case the luminous circles, in dropping on the observer's side of Saturn, became invisible when its edge was presented to the observer. During the change, shadows of the rings, caused by tiie Others include: McLeod, half-miler and high hurdles. ! Jack Hanlon, outstanding hurdler. Whitten, good distance man. Hays, Freshman from Kittitas, good in the middle-distances. Carey, Renton, first year out, half- mile. French, also a newcomer, who has yet to prove his worth. John Stedham, the movie star, is also on the squad. Everett Woodward, Freshman, looks good in the broad jump and may go in for some middle distance running. He would be a worthy addition to the squad there. Letterman Vanderbrink is not out this season. Swingle is a fine prospect for high hurdles. Hulse in the hurdling completes the running class. The 100 yard dash is the only weak spot and this may be filled in the near future. Fast, fair, clean, and interesting they say it was—the Elks smpker Fri­ day night. It is generally conceded that a new and higher order of box­ ing, emphasizing skill and science, has come to town. The boys bowed neatly to each other before and after en­ gagements (those that were able to bow) or at least smiled at those re­ spective moments, and the citizentry were inclined to believe that the box­ ing game had finally reached the Cro Magnon stage. Edwards, a prime favorite with many, deserted his rough style, though not his hard punching, and took a decision over Graves of Yakima. No cobwebs were in evidence in this battle. Rex Cooke, a local boy, won his first ring fight at the end of the third round despite the fact he went head­ hunting in each the first and second rounds. His stamina was excellent and action good. He says he'll be back for more. Nate Porter, former student here took the slow end of a slow bout in the heavyweight class. To a gal you ? ? Jim ("Terrifier") Morrison had trouble with this rung in his ladder and took a close decision from Everett Welkink of Cle Elum in three rounds. But the desert this evening had red pepper in it. Leon Yearout of Wapato had a duck dinner or something sched­ uled for the evening so failed to show up to settle what was talked up to be a grudge fight. This threw a pipe wrench into the churn and disap­ pointed Jack Shearer, who had his eye on Yearout's valley lightweight title. Fans hope to see this fight mature at the Golden Gloves tourna­ ment to be held here next month. The team's weakness is in the field events. There is an absolute lack of a shot putter, while graduate Holl is missed in the high jump and the dis­ cus. Pitt and Sutton may develop in the javelin. There is minor strength in the jumps, although Hartman, a veteran, looks good in the broad jump. We'll pass in the pole vault and very poorly in the high jumps. There are more hurdlers than ever but their ability is unknown. Men included in the fieW events are: McLeod and Farris, pole vault Hartman and Woodward, broad jump Farris, discus the two Andersons and Chiotti in various field events. The schedule for the season in­ cludes: April 16. Y. J. C., there. April 23. Y. J. C., here. May 1. Bellingham, here. May 8. Cheney, here, May 13. Bellingham and U. Frosh in a tri-meet at Seattle.
