Larkin will be­ come professor of Air Science for Central Washington College in August, Perry H. Mitchell, acting president of the college, announced today. He will replace Lieut. Col. Robert H. Benesh. Col. Benesh's military service included Pacific combat duty as a bomber pilot during World War H, six years with Strategic Air Command at Spokane and Omaha, Neb., and three years as a staff officer with the United States Air Force in Europe in Weisbaden, Germany. He received his Bach­ elor's degree in Business Ad­ ministration from the University of Pittsburgh and has recently com­ pleted his requirements for the Master's in Education at Central. Col.

Torch bearers' Open Second Night By GARY TUBESING The sound of laughter filled the College Auditorium last night as the curtain went up on the first performance of George Kelly's hilarious comedy, "The Torch- bearers," being presented by the rCWCE Theatre. The opening night crowd rewarded the student actors with no small amount of guffaws •and pleased chuckles. Another • large crowd is expected at to­ night's performance, Dr. Lyman Partridge, director, said today. . "After several seasons of fairly - heavy drama, this quarter's of­ fering provides a lighthearted change of pace for the actors and the audience alike." he added. "This play has no moral, no les­ son it's just a delight from begittr .ning to end, a lot of good, clean fun." - The plot of "The Torchbearers" concerns the mixed-up world of the amateur theater. Paula Rit- ter, a housewife with theatrical aspirations, is duped into thinking she's a terrific actress by Madame Pampinelli, a pompous community organizer and self-styled leader. Husband Returns Paula's husband, Fred, returns • home from a business trip to Chicago in time to find his house • full' of ham actors and his wife in the middle of them, preparing for her "debut." The rest of the amusing story is devoted to the trials of a man desperately trying to keep his wife from making a fool of herself, especially at .the insistence of. her "friends." ' 'The thing that pleases me r most about this play is the complete versatility of the players," Dr. Partridge commented. "There , are four actors with featured roles in "Torchbearers" who also played parts in "The Diary of Anne Frank". Every player has a role completely the opposite of the one he played in the latter play, and they do a marvelous job of chang­ ing their method of character­ ization. As a typical example, Pat Hanlon, who played the shy, re­ tiring sister of Anne Frank, in this play, is the bombastic Madame Pampinelli, the complete opposite in personality." . Other roles in the three-act pro­ duction are handled by Warren Dayton, Nancy Jackson, Richard Davis, Jean Lucarelli, Marilyn Peterson, Mickey Hamlin, Larry Doerflinger, Sandra Condie and Dave Laughlin. Miss Peterson, who played one of the children in "Snow Queen," in this play also makes a complete turnabout. She portrays a thrice-married widow, pushing middle age, brt still young enough to flirt with every male within reach, Dr. Partridge said. "The play 'The Torchbearers,' enjoyed a successful run on Broad­ way several years back," Dr. Partridge noted. "Kenneth Mnc- Gowan, the noted authority on drama called it one of the great American comedies of all time. I might add, our wonderful cast has done a fine job of being faith­ ful to the original." New Set Designed For this production, Milo Smith created a completely new set done in green, silver and beige. During the second act, a second­ ary set depicting a backstage scene is used. Before-curtain, music is from famous Broadway scores. The stage crew includes: Jack Smith, Dick Allyn, Bob Purser, Pat Thunder, Margaret Ceder- green, Meg Knudsen and Mary Sue Dillon. Student directoiL'is Concie Dallman. Tonight and' tomorrow night's performances will start at 3:15 p.m. Admission will be- by SGA card, or 75 cents for adults, 35 cents for children. APPLYING THE MAKEUP to Nancy Jackson, left, before curtain time Dr. Lyman Partridge, right, helps his cast prepare for the curtain call on yesterday's performance. Pat Hanlon at back also makes ready for the play, "The Torchbearers" opening night. The presentation is a three-act comedy and will be shown again tonight and tomorrow. William J. Bell, commandant, Air University, Maxwell Air Base, Alabama. Leadership Laboratory — the present one hour a week drill period — will be continued as at present, Mr. Mitchell said. ROTC academic courses will come only the third quarter of the freshman year and only the first and sec­ ond quarters of the sophomore year, he added. This means that in the future freshmen will have only two ac­ ademic credit hours of ROTC work and sophomores will have only four hours, instead of the two hours each quarter taken under the present program. In the future at the end of his sopho­ more year a student will have had only six academic hours of ROTC. Under the present pro­ gram, at the end of his sopho­ more year he has had 12 credit hours of academic ROTC work. Freshmen Get Benefit Present freshmen, who took three quarters, or six hours, of AFROTC this year, will take fall and winter quarter academic clas­ ses only in the 1960-61 school year, Lieut. Col. Robert Benesh, professor of Air Science at Cen­ tral, explained. New freshmen will not take ROTC academic work either their first or-second quarters but will take it Spring quarter of 1961, he added. Final plans for the present re­ duction in the AFROTC academic program were rounded out last December at a conference on Air Force ROTC affairs, held at the Maxwell Air Force base, Alabama, Gen. Bell reported. One of the problems that makes necessary a curtailment of the AFROTC academic program : is the decreasing availability of mili­ tary instructor personnel for ROTC assignments, Gen. Bell pointed out in a letter to Mr. Mitchell. Other problems necessitating the change are the "increasing de­ mands on students' academic time and the current and predicted in­ creases in student enrollments and their - effects on already short classroom and office facilities," Gen. Bell's letter continues. Student Can Substitute "In the past 18 months we have made progress toward solutions in- some areas by encouraging sub­ stitution of certain university courses in our advanced course curriculum," he writes. "In many cases, these courses taught by the institution meet the primary .or elective requirements of the stu­ dents' fields of study as well as our objectives." • He added that the Air Force would accept certain university courses as meeting pre-com- mission officer-education require­ ments. ' "These academic courses, to be designated as part of the Air Science curriculum, could include a wide variety of offerings in such disciplines as mathematics, phys­ ical or natural sciences, social sciences, the humanities and for­ eign languages," he added. Central will put the new program into effect with the start of the next school year this fall, Mr. Mitchell said. Co-Rec Sets Games Co-Rec will be held from 1-4 p.m. tomorrow in the Nich­ olson Pavilion, Mrs. Hetfen Mc- Cabe, Co-Rec adviser, said to­ day. AH activities are scheduled. The pool will be open from 1-4 p.m. Students are reminded to wear their street shoes up to the gym and thedr tennis shoes on the gym floor, Mrs. Mc- Cabe added.

RO Follows National Trend, Compromises On Training Council Capsule While several other colleges of the nation have abolished com- . pulsory ROTC, Central has reached a compromise cutting the required RO periods in half. Starting next fall, cadets will continue to. take one hour of drill each week but the academic courses have been cut in half. Six credit hours rather than the present 12 in the military de­ partment will be completed by men by the end of the sophomore . .year, (see story elsewhere in today's Crier)-. Required ROTC has become an issue at several colleges in the past several months. Col­ leges which have debated it are Michigan State, Ohio State,- Wis- . consin and California. . "U. S. News and World Re­ port" gave a comprehensive re- . port on the situation pertaining to. other colleges, the State De­ partment and ROTC. The De­ fense Department won't take a stand either way. Its statement on the subject leaves the decision .up to the individual institutions. "U. S. News" reports that the, "Pentagon's policy is "hands off" and came as a result of the feeling from top Navy and Air Force men that they "could meet • officer requirements of their : „s ervices without compulsory -ROTC." If ROTC is put on a vol­ untary basis in the colleges, .the .enrollment in military clas­ ses is expected to drop from 20 to 30 per cent. However, it . is the feeling of the officers that a high percentage of these cadets will go into advanced training, according to tlie mag- azine's survey. Colleges give several reasons for their action on compulsory • military training. The land grant colleges say that the Pent­ agon refuses their requests for financial help in furnishing class­ room space for the • ROTC pro­ gram and has weakened the cause of compulsory RO. Many colleges are revolting to the time involved in the course for those who are not interested in a military career. This is the claim of the United States National Student Association which has-passed a resolution for the abolition of compulsory RO. The association represents stu­ dent government associations at 397 colleges. The USNSA, the military and the colleges in favor of vol­ untary ROTC are quick to point out*,, that this action does-not represent a .pacifist attitude— beliefs , opposing war and the action of military training. The- Pentagon states that the ."need for military officers can be met with ROTC on a vol- iUntary basis." USNSA upholds the freedom of the students , and states that a "voluntary, program would re­ sult inmore, .better-qualified of­ ficers at Jess .cost." Author Michener island By META CASTLEBERRY "Hawaii,", the latest novel by James Michener describes his fas­ cination with the . Pacific . areas. The book was a recent Book of the Month Club selection. ,Michener's service in the Navy first: introduced him to this area ,-and he began his. writing career •With "Tales of the . South Pacific" which was awarded the Pulitzer Prize. : The musical adaptation of "South Pacific" gave Michener the financial independence to continue his work in the islands. In this novel-Michener unites a historical perspective with a .story line which includes the. many, dif­ ferent racial strains which- have been blended in the present native of Hawaii. This book shows the past , of Hawaii, where its- peoples came from, how the islands changed them and how they changed, the islands, Michener said. Foreign travel was the topic of conversation and a movie at Mon­ day night's SGA meeting. Bernie Pecter, National Student Associ­ ation representative from Chicago, visited Central to point out the advantages of foreign travel on the NSA plan. This is a non-profit program open for co-curricular world travel —travel while you learn. An ex­ ample of one of their travel pro­ grams is 80 days traveling in six countries for $800-900. This price includes transportation, thr i"-e meals, sightseeing and tickets to the theater, opera and such. Trips are scheduled for Europe, Africa and South America. . Anyone interested in foreign travel on this plan may - contact one of the-, SGA officers in their office CUB- 203. Gerry. Aust,. speaking for. the yell squad, asked the Council why SGA movies were scheduled during, the league. play-off. with PLC Saturday pight. Don Knovvles, SGA - pres-. ident, explained that first, of all, the • officers were not,. informed of the. game until late. Secondly, the price of the. game was too, great for some persons,, so movies were provided . for those who, couldn't afford the game. . A report was made on dormitory fire ., insurance. The insurance companies , who were offered the. policy did not like the idea of merely attaching a list of ^ames to the over-all policy, Knovvles said. There is a possibility that SGA may handle college fire insurance. More investigation and information will be available Spring quarter. Crier Improvements Become Today's Topic "What Improvements Can be Made in the Crier" will be the topic today of the final Crier luncheon oi Winter quar­ ter, Miss Bonnie Wiley, ad­ viser and moderator of the discussion, announced this week. Any faculty, administrator or student who wishes to attend , may buy his lunch today at (Cwfimons and meet in the small committee room to the .right of the main entrance. "Since this is the last paper of the quarter, constructive criticisms are welcomed for a r good- start . in the spring," Joyce Morrisson, editor, said. The next luncheon will be held April 8.

Ellensburg seems, to be, in the state's processes. ,This will not be , another college, but a penal institution. The state has been considering several sites through­ out Washington, among them be­ ing Cheney, Spokane, McCleary and Shelton as well as Ellens­ burg. All sorts of ideas have been formed since the introduction of the institution was made some -time ago. -An interview with * Perry- Mitchell, acting president of Central, and Carl Kiilsgaard, . president of the Chamber of Commerce, helped clear these concepts. The institution will be a medi­ um security penal institution— tragically a classification and dis- .persion center. It is not for hardened criminals. Men with i?rst and, second offenses will be . brought here (if the state chooses Ellensburg as the location) and . given tests by psychologists and sociologists. The offenders will then be dispersed to a more per­ manent institution (the state pen­ itentiary or reformatory) or will remain at the medium security building lor short terms of train­ ing.

First I would like to state that what I • have to say has nothing to do with the right or wrong concept of what has been stated by others. • I'll agree that the show was a little "shady" here and there but ho more so than many others I have seen on this campus. If this is so, then why the big' protest . now? Simply because our Dads were here. Seriously, I don't feel the show - was bad enough to embarrass the vast majority of Dads. They, see / much of the same type of thing -on Ty all the time. In fact, I .' got the opinion from many fathers that the show was very good, and : many asked me who the M.C. was, they felt he was very good. I feel that it was a few students that were embarrassed, not the Dads. - Now this isn't so bad in itself, in fact it may be a desir­ able trait, except for the fact that these same students, or many of them, enjoy a shady joke in, the privacy of the backroom. -But mention sex, or anything, else a little out of line, when they are with their fathers, and they turn red. Whether this sort of joke has a place in our -society is a question, but let's face it, it's here, anyway. This was an adult audience, they see this sort of thing all the time and they realize that it takes place on college campuses, why hide it from therri. Other, schools . have shows much worse, than the one we had. I'm not trying to crusade, I. hate, chopping ! down cherry, trees. I just feel people should be a. little more careful before they cail their neighbor "juvenile" and should be a. little more . careful . about .the methods .they use in doing this. They may be surprised the method they, used is .just, as,Juvenile as what they were complaining, about.

I The -building will have no surrounding walls but fences instead. At present having tw3 fences is being considered by the state planners. The first will be 12 feet high. Thirty feet away will be another, the outer fence, 20 feet high. It will have guards on 24-hour duty. The living quarters will be divided into three parts accord-... ing to the classification of thei criminal. The reason for this is so that persons who committed minor crimes will not have lb associate with the ones of more serious criminal tendencies, Mr. Kiilsgaard said. Central's stand toward bring­ ing such an institution to Ellens­ burg is neutral, Mr. Mitchell said. Mr. Mitchell, speaking for the Board of Trustees, sent a letter to state officials which read in part, "CWCE stands ready to co-operate in every way « possible in the event that the * new correctional institution is lo­ cated in Kittitas Valley or at a location where such activity would be possible." "The college cannot offer any : financial assistance,'' Mr, .Mitch­ ell said. "However, perhaps some of our faculty, members could be , used in its testing pro­ gram," he added. • Mr. Kiilsgaard feels that-the institution will be valuable to the college. "The college could build up a name in the psychology and so­ ciological departments because of this chance to use this facility as a training ground," he said. This is going to be a really fine institution, he added, no people running about like "wild Indians." It will be a good place , for observations. According to Mr. Kiilsgaard, word should be received any day ..saying whether the.medium secu- \ rity building will be constructed in Ellensburg. The chance that Ellensburg may have two institu­ tions is close and very possible.

FRIDAY, MARCH 4, I960 THE CAMPUS CRIER Page Three Top Military Queen Candidates Named • :•v...- 1 Befty Larson Susan Erickson Janice Sweaney So This Is CentraliChamber Music Sef For Monday ^Military Sets 'Polar' Dance Dick Last week's Crier seemed to produce an over abundance of letters_ to the editor. These letters always hold a great deal of inter­ est to any newspaper and, of course, aroused my curiosity There was a letter from our college gov­ ernment president, and one from a minister of education and then there was a real clever one from one of Central's intellectuals. It was this one I liked best. My opinions follow. The complaint which the letter seemed to raise was over the lack of mature articles in the Crier on a college level. The author claim­ ed he is intellectually insulted when he picks up the campus newspaper. Evidently this gentleman is not acquainted with what a newspaper is and what it is supposed to do. The newspaper has been a recognized institution for many years and knowledge of what a newspaper is should be included in the mind of every intellectual. In the first place, the newspaper is not a mouthpiece for poetic or literary endeavors it is designed to convey happenings and events which take place in day to day life. And rightly so. When the news­ paper begins to focus on literary works of art, it ceases to be news and becomes merely an entertainment organ. "A newspaper exists only because it is the purveyor of news If it ceases to publish the news in a reasonably complete form, it presently ceases to exist." The ex-editor emeritus of the Chicago Daily News made the preceding statement. It is my opinion he is truly intellectually minded. If any Mr. Intellectual wishes to read works of poetic and liter­ ary art, a subscription to Atlantic Monthly or the Saturday Review should provide such an outlet. The Campus Crier is a newspaper. The debate which is currently being waged over the current position of American advertising has also aroused my senses. In 1900 bathing suits were worn while swimming and sun bathing for the first time in American history. A few sceptics said the morality of America was going down the drain I think it was merely a move which was bound to come sooner or later just as was the radio and movies. There were sceptics about those media also. The third letter which appears somewhat controversial was a nine point essay written by the SGA president. Let's see, Woodrow Wilson had 14 points and Harry Truman had a point four program. So this is Central.

They were featured at the WMEA stur dent luncheon in Wenatchee re­ cently. The quintet includes: Patricia Peters, Sandy Hertz, Kenneth Aoki, Ross Powell and Bruce Bothwell. Susan Erickson, Betty Larson, and Janice Sweaney have been named as the three finalists for the title of 1960 Military Ball Queen, Dale Stager and Concie Dallman, queen selection co-chair­ men, said today. . - Decorations are well under con­ struction for the formal dance, set for March 5, in the Armory from 9 p.m. to midnight. The theme of this year's function is "Polar Paradise," decorations chairman, Bob Sule, said. The armory will be decked out in sil­ ver and blue in, varying shades against a brilliant Aurora Borealis background with a Milky Way composed of a myriad of silver stars. A silver and blue throne will occupy one corner of the room while the entrance will be guarded by large imitation polar bears.

Future promotion ideas include a mixer on March 28, a street dance and tug-of-war April 20, a softball game and a parade. The lug-of-war and softball game will be between Democratic and Re­ publican Parties. The location, for the convention has not been officially arranged, but Nicholson Pavilion has been temporarily suggested. Banquet Planned As an added incentive to the convention delegates, a banquet is being planned for the delegates and ernment Association, co-sponsors of the convention along with the Cam­ pus Crier, put up $350 to insure success of the day-long convention. The Citizenship Clearing House donated an additional $250. Overall chairman of the event is Terry Flanagan. Working under iiim are five committees, each with a specific purpose, promoting the success of the convention.

Letters have been sent to prominent state and national politicians requesting their presence. Will it be Stevenson, Nixon, Ken­ nedy or Humphrey? It's up to you. It's wise to apologize to a man if you're wrong—and to a woman if you're right. DICTATING A LETTER into the SO A Office's recording machine, Don Knowles appears thoughtfully intent upon the business at hand. Don Knowles, president of the Student Gov­ ernment Association, handles a number of responsibilities con­ nected with the chief executive's job. Answering correspondence is just one of these. Knowles confers with administrators, faculty members, students and the SGA council as well as leaders from other college communities.

"The best way for a person to go broke is to sit idle and wait for a break," said Knowles. In high school, Knowles was captain of the football and basket- bail squads. He was named to the all-county and all-district teams two years in a row and was voted "Back of the Week" by the Associated Press Poll. Know­ les was the sixth leading basket­ ball scorer in high school in the Inland Empire. Does Training in the Army Upon graduation from Brewster High School Knowles served in the Army for two years. His wife Mabel worked as city clerk in Waterville during that time. Knowles smiles to himself when he recalls a particular incident in Germany. / • "I took leave for a few days Playing on their intramural sports squads and serving on various committees has filled spare mo­ ments for the tireless executive. "My work in SGA this year has been a most satisfying experience. Meeting people from all walks of life and working with other stu­ dent leaders and members of the administration have provided a challenging year," said Knowles. Travels To Conventions During his term, Knowles has attended numerous conferences and conventions, travelling to Bell- ingham Reno Champlaigne, 111 Moscow, Idaho, and Tuscon, Ariz.

MARCH 4, 1960 THE GAMPUS CRIER Page Fiye College Celebrates 70th .... - - ' '". " ' ' " wmm$ lliillil m ILLUSTRATING THE CONTRAST betwe n the old and new on the CWCE campus, the Administration building, built in 1894, represents the old. When it was first built this building housed the administration, classes, and the College Elementary, School. At that time Central operated under the name, Washington Statue Normal School. CES was simply referred to as the training school. NEWEST ADDITION TO Central's campus, the Leo Nich­ olson Pavilion represents years of planning on the part of Cen­ tral's forward looking administrative staff. The pavilion is just one of the buildings planned for Central's campus in the next few years of expansion. The pavilion was dedicated in a formal ceremony on Feb. 5 when the name of the construction, the Nicholson Pavilion was announced. Editor's Note: The following article was written in recognition of Central's 70th anniversary. Although the college was not officially established until 1891, it was 70 years ago this month, March, 1890 that the idea was first mapped on paper. The paper plan for a college of education has grown to a campus which has educated an all time high, 2.046 students, this past fall. BY WELDON JOHNSON Central Washington College celebrates its 70th birthday this month, something early day observers might well have doubted it would ever do. Three generations have passed since a devoted band of pioneers founded the school, and many have forgotten or never known of the early struggles.

President ONCE THE COLLEGE ELEMENTARY School, this building is now called the Music build­ ing. The building, was constructed in 1907 for the college's training school but was later changed over for college classroom space and use of the Music department. Several offices are also housed, in this building at the present. it a paramount duty of the state to provide ample facilities for all children residing within its borders the first legislature, in 1890, en-, acted a law stating: "There 'shall be established in the City of Ellensburg, County of Kittitas, a school for the training and education of teachers in The art of instructing and governing in the public schools of the State." Bill Introduced It was Senator Eugene Wilson of Ellensburg who introduced 'the bill in Olympia. When the second legislative assembly met in 1891, the dir­ ectors of the Ellensburg Public Schools tendered the state the use of the rooms on the second floor of the city public school building, including • the assembly room and four classrooms. The act of the )ublic school officials was on con­ dition that the state appropriate funds for the maintenance of the school. Accordingly, the Legislature made an appropriation of $15,000 '^for the maintenance of a two-year j period. The school was inaugurated on Sept. 15, 1891 with Benjamin F. Barge, principal. The first faculty included three others: W. A. Hull, Miss Fannie Norris and Mrs. Rose M. Rice. To provide dormitory facilities, a brick building on Craig's Hill at 803 East Second was secured. The school facilities of the college were limited to one room and grade in the Central school. The first enrollment was 51 students. By the end of the year, some 86 l! f C ing. This training school was increased until it included the first eight grades and was independent of the city .school system. In 1907, the Legislature appro­ priated $75,000 for a training school building and a central heat­ ing plant. The new training school building contained two libraries, one for students and one for the training of teachers. The present Music building was constructed in 1908. The central heating plant was no' built until 1914 at which time the structure was .made large enough to include classrooms equipped for manuel training and science work. During this time P. A. Getz and: W. E. Wilson served as presidents of Ellenfcburg Normal. One of the wings of the girls' dormitory, now Kamola, was built in 1911 and accommodated 54 stu­ dents. The dormitory also pr vided dining room accommodations for 90 persons. In 1912 the dining room was enlarged to seat 200 persons and in 1915 the building was enlarged by the addition of another wing so that accommoda­ tions were now available for ±12 girls. George Black became presi­ dent of Ellensburg Normal in 1916. Kamola Addition, 1919 The Legislature of 1919 appro­ priated funds totaling $75,000 to be used for the construction of a women's building now known as New Kamola. During the boom following World War I an extensive build­ ing program was started. One hundred thousand dollars was ap­ propriated for a library building. Sue Lombard and Munson HaJls were built in addition to the classroom building and the old gymnasium. Up to this time, Es- win Hall, residence building about two blocks west of the campus on Eighth Street had been used as the men's dormitory. The "Student Opinion," campus printed newspaper, was started in 1921 and a year later the name of the school yearbook, "Kooltuo," was changed to "Hyakem." In 1927, the "Student Opinibn" be­ came the "Campus Crier." It is interesting to note that at this period when a permanent lay­ out of the campus was being plan­ ned, a quarter of a block was set aside to be used "as an area in which the students might leavn how to ride horseback under com­ petent instruction. George Black resigned as president of the col­ lege in 1930 and Selden F. Smyser served for one year until a per­ manent president was appointed. McConnell Named Dr. Robert E. McConnell was appointed president in 1931. The new auditorium was fore- coming when the 1935 Legislature appropriated $126,500 supplemented by the P.W.A. funds.- Dedication ceremonies for the auditorium and accompanying classrooms were held in January of 1937. Three years before, the three normal schools in the state were author­ ized to grant Bachelor of Art de­ grees in Education.* In-1937, the name of Ellensburg Normal wis changed to' Central Washington College of Education. Fall of 1936 saw the begin­ ning of plans for a new training school it was dedicated in 1938. Following the Second World War, the campus was invaded, by hund­ reds of G.I.'s who wished to com­ plete their education. Housing was the immediate problem and the buildings, at the airport were used for a time. A new addition to Munson Hall. was completed in 1947. Dr. McConnell and others ne­ gotiated with the Air Force and were successful in bringing the 314th College Training Detachment to the campus in the spring of 1943. ' Vetville Moves In Four temporary dormitories pre­ viously used by the Navy were moved to North Walnut. Street, Forty-eight dwelling units for mar­ ried students were secured from the government and moved to j form. "Vetville." Kennedy. Hall was built in 1948. With the sudden expansion of enrollment reaching over 1500, classroom space was needed. The Science Building was erected in 1948, as was the new Physical Plant and President's house. The year 1959 saw President Robert McConnell resign and the Board of Trustees appoint Perry Mitchell as president pro-tem. Iri 1960 the sparkling Nicholson Par vilion was completed and dedicat­ ed by the Governor. ' Stephens-Whitney Hall for men students was completed, as was the college apartments, for mar­ ried students. Construction began on the Psychology and Education Building and final plans were "* mapped for a new Student Union Building and a new library. ! Seventy years have passed.

Central came from behind several times in a desperate attempt to win but the Lutes proved too much in a 74-67 victory. Number 23 is 2£orm Dalil of the Gladiators, the player looking back over his shoulder for PLU is Larry i'oulsen. Phil Fitterer is the other CWC member. Western Wins For the first time in many seasons the Pacific Lutheran quintet will not represent the NAIA District I at Kansas City. Western Washington defeated the Lutes in the best of three games to eiarn the trip. PLU Quintet Eliminates Central From NAIA Tournament Play Shooting an uncanny percentage from the field the Pacific Lu­ theran Gladiators dampened Central Washington basketball hopes to play in the NAIA District Play-offs by scoring a 74-67 victory over the Wildcats last Saturday night in Ellensburg. Central fought down to the wire in meeting the strong Tacoma quintet and were in MIA Basketball Crown Planned Tuesday Volleyball Play Outlined •grasp of a win several times throughout the contest. The 'Cats garnered an early 9-5 lead but the Lutes overcame the deficit with 12:46 left to play in the first half in reaching a 14-9 lead. PLU led by as much as 13 points during the first period of play. On the fine shooting and Mick's SPORT DIGEST By MICK BARRUS It's a far cry from what it used to be but the world of sports and sports accommodations is getting somewhat modern and adjust­ ing itself to what the people apparently want. The days of bottle throwing has been gone from the major league for a long time now tout there is a new threat that may threaten the extinction of the ever popular popcorn and hot dogs at the local ball parks. For instance the Chicago White Sox team has gone modern in building a cafe under the left field bleachers in their home park. This cafe will feature anything a spectator wants in enjoy­ ing a meal during a ball game. If action is wanted while eating, tables are placed near a huge plate glass window so the game can be viewed with ease. Of course television has to enter the picture also and it's tele­ vision on the menu if you don't care to watch-the game from the window. Yankee Stadium on the other hand .isn't quite ias classy as the White Sox park. While the classy Yank's have a bar under their stands they . have no window to watch the game from,- the fans are stuck with television. It seems as though this has gone far enough but the Cincinati Redlegs are out to do better than the "Jones family across the way." Recently the Cincinati club built a= •gymnasium • for • their'--stars' to work out in during inclamet weather. On rainy days the club' Works out in the confines of a warm, dry building especially built for the stars. This gymnasium is . purely Redleg property and during the 'winter months just the baseball players are eligible to use it, otherwise it is unoccupied. Baseball isn't the only sport with these-"new features." Take for instance the new idea proposed in Eastern Washington and Western Idaho where those two "neighborly" schools, Washington State University and Idaho University have proposed a joint owned football stadium. That's right, joint owned which is truly remarkable between the two schools. The unique thing about the structure is the fact that it will have a retractable roof permit­ ting football to be played with pleasure during snow storms, rain squalls or wind storms that usually makes football disagree­ able to fan and player alike. • With a retractable roof the game can also be played during days of sunshine or of much more agreeable weather at least. This stad­ ium would be placed midway between the schools which is a distance of eight miles. The biggest fight between the two will probably" be the chopping down of mileage either school will have to walk during the traditional games. Something new has also been added to tournament basket­ ball. A "Breakfast Break" is being planned for the fans visiting Spokane for the State Class B High School basketball tourna­ ment, March 9-12. If this year's "Break" is sufficiently popular, it may become a permanent feature of the Class B tourney in Spokane. In addition to a fine breakfast,, a very informal program of entertainment will be staged. Music, contest for prizes, stunts, cheers and general mad-cap confusion wj]J reign throughout the "Break­ fast Break." L - * * * * Tuesday, March 8, is the big day for Men's Intramural basket­ ball play as the championship and consolation games are scheduled to be played on the full court in the Nicholson Pavilion. Bleachers will be let down for all spectators interested in attending the games. Championship play will begin at 7:30 p.m. with the two top teams in the basketball leagues meeting for the title. Preceding the contest will be the consolation squads meeting for third and fourth spots from a field of 32 quintets that participated during the season. As of March 1, twelve teams were still in contention for one of the first four places. North II, AFROTC I and II, and Off-Campus II were competing for the right to play for the consolation game. Off-Campus teams IV, V, IX, III and VII, Vetville I, North III and Montgomery I still held possible inside tracks to the championship game. Harold Fieldman, director of MIA activities, reports that volley­ ball action has started and will continue with play on March 7. The net game will be played on a single consolation basis which gives every team participating the opportunity to play at least twice dur­ ing the season. Munro led the list of volleyball entries with four teams register­ ed. Two faculty squads were also scheduled to participate against some of the college teams. Teams Will be notified as to the playing time. MIA officials report they are still looking for handball entries. As of the present not enough interest has been shown to merit hav­ ing singles, doubles or a team basis schedule for the sport. There has been a similar lack in the free throw contests and basketball golf which will in all probability be dropped from the Winter quarter's plan of events. Spring quarter will open with a swimming meet which the MIA will get under way soon after the return to school. Teams are urged to start thinking about the entries. Although softball has been in the planning stage, with the construction going on where the old dia­ monds are located, there has been a question of playing area for the activity. Track, tennis and a possible intramural golf tournament are also planned for the spring session. Fieldman urged that track and tennis entries be on an identified team basis other than individual participants. Golf is trying to be arranged with the local country club with the price set at a nominal fee i for interested competitors. Progress has been made towards an inti-amural hall of fame and individual records are being kept of all students enrolled in the MIA program. rebounding ability of Norm Erken the Wildcats narrowed the mar­ gin to 42-33 at intermission. Al­ though the Lutes overpowered Cen­ tral from the field the Wildcats put on a display of rebounding never before equaled in the sea­ son. Erken, Dick Weber, Ray Kinnamen and Phil Fitterer clear­ ed both boards for the home team, throughout the gaine. In the second half of play the winners got off to a fast start and built up -a thirteen point bulge with a little less than eleven minutes to play in the contest.. With Erken shooting a dazzling display of hook shots and Lybbert, Castleberry and Fitterer helping the Central scoring column the local aggregation narrowed the lead to two points with less than five minutes to play. Norm Dahl, Pacific Lutheran standout, potted three quick buckets before fouling out which put the game on ice for the Gladi­ ators. Dahl was outdone however, by guard Bruce Alexander who scored 27 points in pacing the win. Alexander continually shot and hit from all over the court during the game which led to the Central defeat. It was a team effort by the Wildcats who demonstrated some of the finest basketball during the year. Before Pacific Lutheran University defeated the Central Washington quintet for the NAIA District Semi-finals the Glad­ iators were also knocked out of a sure Evergreen Conference championship by the same CWC squad. The "poor" Lutes had to settle for a tie with Western Washington. This game which Central won was played on February 19. °n^February 12 in the stude"t newspaper the PLC Mooring Mast, there appeared the following statement under Jim Kittilsbv's column, "seen from the sidelines." "It happened in downtown Ellensburg during a showing of that epic, 'Demetrius and the Gladiators.' The gladiator had just killed three tigers in a hand-to-hand struggle. As the third beast breathed his last, a Central Washington College fan in the aud­ ience turned to his buddy and snorted, 'Same old story, the Wildcats lose three in a row again." It remains to be seen that Pacific Lutheran had the misfortune of Shaving to share the Evergreen Conference title this year because a -gladiator had the misfortune of overestimating the power of a srriall cat. Besides basketball isn't the only sport, it seems as though tennis and football don't look quite as impressive from the Lute record books against Central as their basketball teams. Girl Keglers Finish Year Action ended last Tuesday in the WRA bowling league. Continued play will be for individual top honors and play-off series. Jo Swinford of Kamola Hall lead the lady keglers with the high series of 505 followed by Veda Welsh and Helen Wait with ident­ ical scores of 463. Miss Welsh also topped the -in­ dividual high game by tumbling 188 pins. Janis Moore fired a 177 game for runner-up position. In team effort the Pinspotters, Miss Moore, Sheila Francis, Sally Hill and Regina Gross, came up with the best game of the evening with a 670 tally. Shirley Larson, Carol Woody, Joan Hanlon and Miss Welsh leveled the lanes for a 638 game and second spot. High team series went to a group of Kamola girls, Karen Johnson, Joan Guidi, Miss Swin­ ford and Charlene Lewis, with a 1849 pin effort. . The. Pin Ups led by Pat Raab's 442 series garnered the second place picking up a 1778 series. * It's been done, the style of the Nicholson Pavilion has been Sprouted up in another location.

Eastern copped nine of 11 events to garner 58 points while Central tallied 37. Central dropped an earlier meet to the Savage mermen at Cheney by a similar 57-34 count. Thursday's meet was the first to be held in Nicholson Pavilion .pool. Both teams were greeted by a near capacity crowd that had assembled at pool-side. A unique feature of the meet is the fact that every winner can say he holds a record. As this was the first time the pool had , been used for competition all times will go on the books as pool rec­ ords. Hertrick also picked up Cen­ tral's only other first place by winning the 200-yard breaststroke. Hertrick's first win came in the 400 yard medley. Several of Eastern's swimmers were repeat victors. Frank Burger picked up two firsts, the 220-yard free style and the 440-yard free style. Gray­ son Hand finished on top in the 50-yarcl free style and 100-yard free style.
