Abraham Lincoln often liked to quote those few words. Per­ haps was thinking of his face as he said that. "He had a face he could manipulate," wrote Carl Sandburg, "with take-off and put-on of look and tone, shadings in a gamut of the comedy of life. He was a practised actor and an individual artist in the use of his face, when the going was good, and the time and company proper." Lincoln's face was made of the clay of the common man. Into his face was molded man's sorrows, his moments of happiness, his discouragements and his successes. There was man's tenderness and his pity his weakness and strength. A story well known by the people is Lincoln's dream about the man who said of the President, "He is a common-looking fellow." In his dream, Lincoln turned to the man and said, "Friend, the Lord prefers common-looking people that is the reason why He made so many of them." Lincoln would come out of his receptions, which he called his "public-opinion baths," with the common people with a renewed sense of his obligations to them. "No hours of my day are better employed than those which bring me again within the direct con­ tact and the atmosphere of the average of our whole people," he said, and added that they helped "to renew in me a clearer and more vivid image of that great popular assemblage out of which I sprang and to which I must return." In a time in which the conflict on the home front and on the fighting front is so great and upon which the future of our coun­ try depends, it is well to remember the speech he made as he ac­ cented the nomination to rtin against Stephen A. Douglas for the Senatorship of Illinois in 1858. He reminded his listeners: "A house divided against itself cannot stand. I believe this govern­ ment cannot endure permanently, half slave and half free. I do not expect the Union to be dissolved. I do not expect it will cease to be divided. It will become all one thing or all the other." TTIs friends urged him not to make that famous speech and he retorted: "Friends, the time has come when these sentiments should be uttered, and if it is decreed that I should go down be­ cause pf this speech, then let me go down linked with the truth." His critics said that he had overthrown his chances of victory and had ruined the opportunities of his party and he said, "If I had to draw a pen across my record and erase my whole life from sight, and I had one poor gift or choice left as to what I should save from the wreck, I should choose that speech and leave it to the world unerased." About the Union, that man whose face was of the clay of the people, wrote to Horace Greeley, "I would save the Union. I would save it in the shortest way- under the Constitution. If there be those who would not save the Union unless they could at the same time save slavery, I do not agree with them. If there be those who would not save the Union unless they could, at the same time, de­ stroy slavery, I do not agree with them. My paramount object in this struggle is to save the Union, and is not either to save or de­ stroy slavery. If I could save the Union without freeing any slave, I would do it and if I could do it by freeing all the slaves, I would do it and if I could save it by freeing some and leaving others alone, 1 would also do that. What I do about slavery and the col­ ored race, I,do because I believe it helps to save the Union and what I forbear, I forbear because I do not believe it would help to save the Union. I shall do less whenever I belive what I am doing hurts the cause, and I shall do more whenever I believe doing more will help the cause. I shall try to correct errors when shown to be errors, and I shall adopt new views as fast as they appear to be true views." During the Civil war a man who saw him at this time, Gustave Koerner commented: "Something about the man, the face, is unfathomable." Gettysburg, November,, 1863—a dispatch sent to the London Times described a man whose "turned-down shirt collar disclosed £i sinewy muscular yellow neck, and above that, nestling in a great black mass of hair, bristling and compact, like a ruff of 'mourning pm§, rose the strange quaint face and head, covered with its thatch of wild republican liklr—President Lincoln."

After the swim, there will be a get- together party in Kamola's West room with refreshments, dancing and games. Anyone wishing to go must sign up before the party on the list posted on the bulletin boards in the dorms. The lists will be taken down Friday morn­ ing, and after that no one may sign up. There will also be lists to be signed for the party in Kamola. Cornelia announces that even if the girls do not wish to go swimming, they will be welcomed at the get-together later in the evening. The list of committees is Refreshments: Mildred Kukulan, chairman, Evelyn Johnson, Lillian Purvis, June Bach, Arvilla Brown. Clean Up: Margaret Norris, chair­ man, Pat Wynne, Beth Banko, EIna Holt, Leola Lyle, Betty Jean Boyd. Entertainment: Pat Col well, Junice Nelson, co-chairmen. The junior and senior class skits promise to show good competition for the inter-class program which will be held at the regular assembly hour in the auditorium, February 15. Both classes are at a disadvantage because of the small number in each class and many of the members are student teaching during that hour. This is especially true in the senior class. However, both classes are working hard on their skits and results will be seen during their program. The juniors have not yet definitely decided on what skit to present, there­ fore they cannot give a hint to what they have in. mind because they might change their plans. In order to give the lower classmen and juniors a clear picture of senior life, the senior class will present some of their trials and tribulations. Virginia Sidders has charge of the senior skit and Barbara Howard, Cor­ nelia Anderson and Virginia Sidders are in charge of the script. Dorothy Johnston and June Sey­ mour are chairmen of the junior class skit- - The. other committees are as follows: Script: Alice Gunderson, Frances Hewitt, Rosamund Laffin, and.

KAPPA DELTA PI ACTIVE Though present conditions causing students to leave college sooner to teach have depleted the membership of Kappa Delta Pi, the faculty and student members present have car­ ried out various activities this last quarter. The annual Homecoming luncheon for returned and present campus mem­ bers of Delta Omicron Chapter of Kappa Delta Pi was given at the New York cafe. Alumni were welcomed by Kappa Delta Pi president, Lia Luc- chesi and by Dr. Robert McConnell, president of the college. % Mary Culk and Maxine Stringer were pledged at the traditional Pledge breakfast on November 21 at 6:30 a. m. in the College Elementary school social room. Following the Pledge ceremony, breakfast for the pledges and the Kadelphians was served in the College Elementary school dining room. The club sponsored a speaker from the University of Washington, Profes­ sor Kenneth C. Cole, October 25. His topic was "The Problem of World Peace." The Recognition tea held each year for sophomores who held a 3.00 grade point average as freshmen, was given November 9 in the C. E. S. social room. Sixteen students were invited.

No matter if we don't look forwrad to the holidays with the same joyful and happy spirit we used to have, they still roll around. A valentine doesn't do much to take the place of the person we send it to, but it must give our G. I. friend, sweetheart, brother, hus­ band, a happy lift in a day that otherwise would "be uneventful •with the uniformity, the dreariness, and the discipline of a mil­ itary camp here State-side or overseas.

He received a plea from a fel­ low for a pardon who had nnown no influential people to send-sup­ porting data. When Lincoln in­ quired as to whether the man had friends, the answer given Along the sentiment line—although this romantic day connotes thoughts of love for the opposite sex, it is a day for expressing love for everyone. We have a Mother's Day and a Father's Day coming later in the year, but why Wait until then to show appre­ ciation for a swell "Mom" and Top"? "Not one, sir.

Ethereal and slightly "stuffy" as this may sound, we find the achievement of these aims far from dull. In the pursuit of these we find a great deal of interest in correspondence with for­ mer members, alumni, and national officers contributions to the "sketch book" which is the national Kappa Pi yearbook interest­ ing, moneymaking quarterly projects, as well as the informal and sometimes "Zany" parties. Our traditional contribution to cam­ pus culture is the Spring Art Bazaar. This year for the first time since the war, the members are contemplating a trip either to Portland or Seattle to tour the art centers there. Kappa Pi is a national honorary art fraternity in which active and alumni members usually work together. Eligibility for mem­ bership in Kappa Pi is based primarily upon artistic interest and achievement, with the requirements providing for certain grade point averages and number of credit hours. The officers of Alpha Beta Chapter of Kappa Pi are Jean Johnson, president Elaine Millard, vice president Betty Barlow, secretary-treasurer, aiid Miss Sarah Spurgeon, adViser: Y *-•'' : V MILDRED V. KUKULAN The song-writers weren't merely •juggling some words around when they informed the world that "Time Waits for. No One." Look at the cal­ endar, will you ? Five more weeks and we can move in on Mom and Dad for that now imminent spring vacation. To some of you new studes, five weeks may seem like an eternity, but just you wait. With all the last min­ ute "papers," '.'notebooks," and any­ thing else the more industrious profs can conjoin, you'll turn around and ask yo.ur shadow what has happened to .all, those days that were supposedly left on the calendar. It is commendable to us to see that the Wednesday evening Cul­ ture hours are as popular as they were at the very first. I've heard some of the young fry on the cam­ pus asking why more of the upper- classmen can't make it a point to come out a little more often, and it seems to me that that's a fair ques­ tion. Of course ve realize you're snowed under with practise teach­ ing and lesson plans and. all the other paraphernalia connected with the last few years at CWC, but don't Juniors and Seniors need to be ex­ posed to flashes of "culture" to the same extent as their "little sisters and brothers"? Every student on this campus should resolve to keep going to those Wednesday night get- togethers. If you're going to stay at home because, you've got to lis­ ten to a radio program you like, so much, of because tJiere's a letter that must be dashed off, just remem­ ber that a few weeks or months, or even years from now, you're not going to haye a memory of that, but you will have constructive thoughts concerning the subject which was so skillfully discussed on that particular Wednesday night. Food for thought, yes? I wish that someone had kept count of the times we've warbled "I Love You Truly" in the dining-room since last September. Personally, I can't venture a weak guess. Could the in­ crease in engagements be because more girls read the Pond's ads, or does that bottle of Jergen's hold a coveted spot in these co-eds hands? You can throw in your guesses along -with mine. While you're doing that, just think of all the jewelers who can retire after the war, and get tan by meirely thinlking of tlve sparkling brightness of all the diamonds sold in the boomjng past. Okay, you kids, don't you all go hunt up a jeweler's want-ad position. See you tomorrow night at the swimming party, and let's all be brave and get our big ANlD little toes wet, huh? WOODEN A NOTE FROM ME I think about you often And I writje every day But there's so very -little That seems worth while to say. It either rains or doesn't It's either hot or cold The news is all uninteresting Or else it's been told. The only thing that matters " Is the fact that you are there And I am here without you And it's lonesome everywhere.

The weary and all forespent twopenny jjostman sinks beneath a load of delicate embarrassments, not his own In these little visual interpretations, no emblem is so common as the HEART—that little three-cornered exponent of all our hopes' and fears,—the bestuck and bleeding heart." —Charles Lamb, Essays of EHa~ m " * " • : 'Lightning Pink' and 'Cloud White' Enter Fashion Spotlight By DOROTHY RADD , r If the weather man could make up ^fis mind, it would be much easier to Itnow w(h)eather to talk of coming spring fashions, or of how to keep fashionably warm. So—I'll try to hit a happy medium for this time. "Cloud white" is in the limelight for woolly date dresses this month. Trimmed with a bright color it is very striking. Another new color is "lightning pink," a beautiful shade of blueish pink. Dressmaker suits, and date "dresses are attractive in.this color, and it is also featured in Revlon's new pol­ ish and lipstick. Thie striped -rayon date dress is stylish. Wear the stripes up aiid down or around—whatever suits you the best. A ckrdigan and pullover are a won­ derful combination for these days when old man winter decides he isn't going to leave jiist yet. Mix them, match them, or blend them. It gives you a chance to think up some start­ ling new color schemes. . Blouses with the "Peter Pan" colliars iare sweet, and make you feel young and gay again. .

Where did it coriiej puirips or sandkls. from, and why was it put there ?... If you ..have ever been in the CAMPUS CRIER office, you too perhaps have noticed the crudely carved wooden shoe that lies on one of the window sills and have wondered about it and. have asked that question. After inquiring around for a little while you'll find out that no one seems to know anything about it.or where to find the information. Well, now, let's wander around a bit in the nooks and crannies of our imagination and see what could have brought it there. Supposing that there used to be an individualist at C. W. C. who wore big wooden shoes which disturbed other students as he clunked down the halls to classes. One day though, some of the more perturbed fellows got to­ gether while he was sleeping and took them away. One was hidden far up on the fourth floor of the Adminis­ tration building, the most deserted part of Ellensburg. When the owner awoke, he stormed and fumed all over the building but couldn't find the shoe anywhere. Peace reigned again. Then there is the possibility that a wood working class member decided to make herself a pair of wooden shoes that would be different from any other shoes. Yes, they turned put to be different, for the more she worked oh the first one, the more crude it became. Finally in desperation she smuggled it out. and hid it up in a lit­ tle room in the top of the Ad building. Or, maybe there was a girl here who received the shoe one Christmas from a relative in Holland. Now don't say that's too fantastic. You should know some of the queer presents that relatives give at Christmas time. Well, she was disgusted with the thing and decided to give it to the top floor room as an extra-special decoration. And so there it stayed. Have any more ideas on how the shoe got there? Your idea is as good as mine? After a little while the school paper J took over the room, and the editor {finding it there decided to put it to good use. So, from then on it was put on the window sill within easy reach to be used on reporters when they didn't get their stories in on, time. "' For many years people have been led to believe that St. Valentine's Day is either the birthday or the day of the death of jSt. Valentine, but this is incorrect. No record of this day can be seen in the Church of England's books de­ scribing it as a holiday and it is not a legal holiday. What is it then? It is the name given to a day in honor of Valentine, a priest who was persecuted during early Roman his­ tory. Because his day as saint came closest to the fourteenth of February, it was called St. Valentine's Day. It is believed that the writing of poetry to loved ones began in England hundreds of ^ears ago. Shakespeare speaks of St. Valentine's Day in the play Hamlet, written 300 years ago, when Ophelia says: "Good morrow! 'tis St. Valentine's Day All in the morning' betime, And I a maid at your window To be your valentine." Even if this is not exactly like the valentine cards of today, it expresses the same feeling. In our modern world this day is intended to be a day of tender messages, surrounded by cupids, arrows, bleeding hearts, and lace edges. An expressive example of a modern valentine is: My heart comes with this Valen­ tine, And all my love comes too, For all my heart and all my love Belong, Sweetheart, to you.

* N Edited by BETTY JEAN BOYD rs Upsets ictories as Season Progresses By BETTY JEAN BOYD Things happened thick and fast last week-end in the various basket­ ball tournaments throughout the ^tate. As the basketball season progresses, so does the competition, enthusiasm and interest. Here's a brief review of some of the games that were played last week, after which there were many changes in the team standings of the leagues. The Washington Huskies hung the third conference defeat on the lead­ ing Weebfeet last Saturday night in Seattle by winning the tilt 59 to 56. Oregon probably could have won that thriller before 75,000 howl­ ing fans but they tossed away their chances by committing 25 personal fouls. It was the most exciting game or the year, with the score tied eight times and the lead chang­ ing hand ten times. The Huskies, however, broke through in the clos­ ing minutes of each half and these breakaways were what gave Wash­ ington its victory. That same night the Oregon State Beavers journeyed to Moscow and moved within one game of the Webfeet by pouncing Idaho 45 to 35. Stand­ ings in the division show Oregon in the lead with 7 victories to 3 losses, Oregon State 6-4, University of Wash­ ington 5-4, Washington State 5-5 and University of Idaho trailing behind, 0-7. The U. of W. Huskies will invade the inland empire this week to play the Washington State Cougars at Pullman on Friday and Saturday, then move to Moscow on Monday and Tues­ day to play the Idaho Vandals which will wind up their trip. This little jaunt will decide the Huskies' chances for the 1945 Northern Division Coast Conference basketball title and is the only league activity slated for this week. This season in the Northern Divi­ sion has brought much better basket­ ball for the league as a whole than was seen last year and the teams are more evenly matched. s In the Cross-State race the Stadium high Tigers are out in front by de­ feating the Bremerton Wildcats last Saturday night 31 to 18. The Lincoln Abes trimmed Seattle Prep 50 to 29. In an overtime contest, the Belling- ham Red Raiders defeated the Everett Seaagulls 39 to 35. It was the first time the Seagulls had dropped a Cross- state game in Everett for three sea­ sons. This game puts Bellingham in second place. In the Southwest League basketball race, Centralia high school moved into a tie for the lead by defeating Long- view high 43 to 32. Centralia and Longview are now tied with 6 victor­ ies and 1 loss each. Walla Walla high school trimmed the Yakima Pirates Saturday night 44 to 43, coming from behind in the second half. The game was played in Walla Walla. THE SPOTTING THING - - By BETTY JEAN BOYD Skating and skiing enthusiasts en­ joyed the winter weather that we had last week. Many of us dug 'way hack in the closets and brought out our ice skates .while a few of the gals on the campus tried their luck at skiing. There were others who didn't care to do either but were contented with tak­ ing a big. fat walk, having a snow ball fight or building a nice, chubby snow­ man. Let's hope that's not the ex­ tent of the snow for this season. c. w. c. BADMINTON PLAYERS DUST OFF RACKETS FOR WAA TOURNEY . -V. W. A. A. has started this quarter off with a bang. Another high light com­ ing up is the 'Badminton tournament. Plans are now under way and the tourney is soon to begin. Rita Murphy, sports manager, has announced there will be four flights. The captain of each flight will choose a team of doubles and a singles to challenge members of the other flights. This is slated to be a net tourna­ ment in which much enthusiasm and interest will ibe shown. If you have a weakness for close competition, watch the following issues of the Crier for more details of teams and scores. Hamp Poole (Chicago Bears) new assistant coach of Miami's pro-foot­ ball entry in the American League, announced the signing of former Un­ iversity of Idaho tackle, Ensign Stu­ art Smith, to the Miami team. Smith played under Francis Schmidt in 1941 at the University of Idaho. He also played tackle under Phil Sarboe here in '42. The salary has not yet been announced, but it is believed to be around $3,000. He is believed to be one of the first men from Nthis area to play in the new pro circuit. The signing of Smith completes a list of several players from last sea­ son's undefeated Fort Pierce Amphibs . team, which Poole coached, to sign with Miami. Bill Daley (All-Ameri­ can Minnesota) Fort Pierce back, signed with New York's American League pro football team. Marshall Goldberg, Fort Pierce, elected to stay on with the Chicago Cards. • Whoops and hollers were .heard the other night coming from the di­ rection of the gym. It was the members of the Rotary club volley­ ball team again and the Kiwanis and Elks clubs as they pratised for their tournament. They have gotten together and formed a city league which is composed of the Junior Chamber of Commerce, Rotary club, Kiwanis club, and the Elks club. Remember, the Rotary squad con­ sists of all faculty members. The next turnout will be next Thursday in the college gym and should prove to be a lot of fun. Sports Class 7th Period By VERONICA NOSKO J Some of the gals in the sports class got their first taste of skiing last week when the schedule regularity was interrupted by injecting a ^period of skiing for those class members who had proper attire and who were willing to try the sport. - • While the snow was shallow and the topography consisted of level terrain with one gentle slope, the ski-ettes had fun. Oh, yes, there was also opposi­ tion in the form of unwelcome snow balls handed out by envious onlookers. A race started the class period and during the remainder of the period, :*Miss Puckett gave instruction on the herringbone and the kick turn. Each Baseball magnates of the two major leagues met in New York last week and expressed their determination to open the 1945 championship season and to continue as long as the govern­ ment wants then* to do so. The meet­ ing broke up without their appointing a successor to the late K. M. Landis hut club-owners appointed a two-man committee of Ford Frick and William Harridge, as representatives of the sport to deal with representatives in Washington.. The American league announced that the clubs will play 94 exhibition games, an increase of 16 over last year, that they will have 54 warm-up battles with National league rivals, 15 inter-league contest, 15 service clubs and 10 with, minor leagues. The championship, race is slated to begin April 17. Directors of the International league voted to op­ erate in 1945 and adopted a 154 game schedule opening April 19 and clos­ ing September 9.

In his new assignment, Lt. Foster will fly with a group which has one of the most colorful hstories among AAF fighter groups in the whole Eu­ ropean theater. It was the first to go on operational status in England as well as in Algeria, where its pilots shot down three enemy manned French fighters on D-Day, and in Sicily and Italy. . Since being credited with the first German fighter shot down by .AAF fighters in this war over Dieppe on August 19, 1942, the group has run its total of aerial victories over the 500 mark.

This class is a jarg£ group and each member has had .good playing skill and possesses an eagerness to learn. The attendance is good which certainly indicates the satisfaction which the class members receive from this phys­ ical education course.

THE CAMPUS CRIER THURSDAY .FEBRUARY 8,1945 WRITES COMPARISON OF MOVIE TO BOOK WINS TRIP TO I wonder how many of us have ever entered nation-wide contests, telling in words why you rise such and such a soap, completing limericks, or any­ thing like that? I would wager that the majority of us have, and I would also wager that the majority never even won honorable mention in any of those contests. In 1935, MG3I movie studio made a picture called "The Tale of Two Cit­ ies" and at the same time, ran a con­ test. However, this contest was much more difficult than any of those men­ tioned above. The contestants were required to write an essay comparing this movie to the book. The contest was divided into three sections, high school, college, and general public. Hie grand prize for each winner from the three sections was a trip to Eu­ rope with all expenses paid. The winner from the college section is a familiar figure on our campus. She is Miss Dorothy Welch, teacher of the sixth grade at C. E. S. As she says, she was almost stunned when she received the glad tidings, for she entered the contest of Febru­ ary, 1936, and didn't hear of her award until August. She went first to Chicago, and on that same day, continued to New York. On the third day, the three winners sailed out of New York har­ bor on the Normandie. Each had his own stateroom on the Promenade deck and the best of service. They travel­ ed alone, but were met at each place by MGM representatives, photograph­ ers, and newspaper men. On the fifth day, they docked at Southampton, England, and proceeded immediately to London. While there, they saw all the sights that tourists usually do, but they enjoyed a privilege that the average tourist doesn't. The winner of the third division, an elderly wo­ man, had some cousins living at Stay- nes, which is a village about 15 miles out of London. All three of the win­ ners were invited to dinner and to spend the night at this English home. They, therefore, got a taste of the real England in a typical English home. This was one of the most enjoyable incidents of the whole trip. After five days in England, they sailed to France and went directly to Paris. Here they encountered a little difficulty with the language. They stayed only four days in Paris, which is about a block from the Arc de Triomph. They stayed only four days in Paris but managed to fill those four days with sightseeing, shopping and just browsing around the city. They then sailed for the United States. When Miss Welch arrived •back in Clinton. Iowa, she had been gone only three weeks, but they were three weeks packed with excitement, thrills and fun. ART SORORITY TO PAINT MURALS Because it is always interested in the advancement of all aspects of art here at CWC, Kappa Pi has been com­ missioned by Sigma Mu to do two ap­ propriate paintings to be hung in the music library when that room has been redecorated. Because of the singular problem in redecoration pre­ sented by this room, Kappa Pi, fol­ lowing a careful study of all the pos­ sibilities, will soon submit a plan for the library's redecoration to Sigma Mil Mrs. Pearl Hicks, well known for her beautiful home, has been called in to assist in this planning.

In Sue Lombard souvenirs with the names of the ball officers were given to all visitors. One room of each hall was selected as the best. Hie rooms were judged upon effective use of color, arrange­ ment of furniture, expense of decora­ tions, and originality. The number vof girls in each room was also taken into consideration. Pin-up girls and "When He Comes Home" pictures were! popular. In many of the rooms vis­ itors were offered candy, Ritz crack­ ers, cookies, and nuts. As judges, Ruth Redmond, Sarah Spurgeon, and Josephine Burley se­ lected room 412 as the winner in Kamola. This attractive room is in­ habited by Jerrie Rasmussen, Betty May Schildt, and Betty Wilks. The furniture was cream with red trim­ ming and at the windows were drapes of yellow, red and green stripes. Across the top was a border of red oil cloth. The dressers were also cover­ ed with red checked oil cloth and a red knic-knac shelf was hung on ona wall. Two paper rabbits were hung on the window that overlooked the dorm roofs.

The collection is composed of two sets of reproductions of paint­ ings done by Sr. F. Molina Campos about the Gauchos from south of the equator. An interesting explanation and story of each picture aids in understanding it. The artist, Molina Campos, has a flair for the humorous and presents interesting exaggerations in his fig­ ures. He portrays almost a fierce barbarousness in his people. At one time in the past. Molina Campo's paintings were featured inj Life magazine. j Kappa Delta Pi (Continued from Page One) bers are chosen on general scholar­ ship and personality, activities in col­ lege and grades in education courses. The organization was founded in 1936 with Miss Mary Simpson as advisor. Chapter officers this year are Iia Lucchesi, president Mildren Carr, vice president Ruth Ellingsberg, secre­ tary Mabel Anderson, treasurer Shirley Dickson, historian-reporter.

Arriving: Monday evening, the X- Bay 3IobiIe Unit, operated by Mr. Reyes. a physiotherapist, was the cen­ ter of much activity Tuesday, Feb­ ruary 12. This unit is sent by the state depart­ ment of health and travels through­ out the state testing for tuberculosis. It is a much more reliable test than the M a n o u x skin test which has been and still Is in use. The decided advantages of such an opportunity are three-fold: 1. The reliability of the test. 2. The offering of the service with­ out cost. 3. A step in the direction of more complete disease prevention. Also, for the seniors who expect to teach soon, this X-ray service will help them to obtain their state health certificates. The procedure which is followed is the taking of a photograph of the fluoroscopic view of the chest. The time required is one minute. Mr. Keyes usually has an assistant but due to the labor conditions he has been working alone. Returning from testing the students at Washington State college and the prisoners at Walla Walla, this unit is on its way to Seattle where repairs and a check-up will be obtained before further travel.
