Students, faculty and townspeople united ili the plans for a winter sports tournament which was held -with great success in the Menastash canyon, Sunday, January 30. The health education department of the Normal school had charge of the af- Jair and the Commercial club furnish­ ed transportation. Between 75 and 100 students made the trip although only about 65 signed up for the picnic. A start was made from the campus at 9:30 Sunday morning, the cars taking them,as far as the mouth of the canyon. The remainder of the distance was covered by hiking, with the food being brought up on tobog gans, drawn by hotses. The hike covered about a- mile and a half of stiff trail. The cheif sports of the day were skiing, tobogganing and snowshoe- ing, each sport having stars as well * Make Your Own Jazz Walking into the art room the oth­ er day we encountered an aggregati­ on of brilliant ideas gorgeously drap­ ed in geometric design and garnish­ ed with a .generous amount of spc- tra. "And what," we asked, referring to a composition suggestive of the irate diction of a profane man, "and what, does this represent?". "Why that," explained its genera­ tor, "is my interpretation of jazz." And there was jazsi, a whole wall of it. Enough jazz to supply Kamola hall Friday and Saturday nighters for—well—weeks. It was good stuff too, but the question arises where do they get the ^inspire" and having, got it how do they get it out? As far as our artistic talents go we've got to admit we're a plumber. Well this iSj the way Miss Dawn Kennedy explains it. "Each one of us has a few grains of art ability hidden in us and it is the' aim of the class to bring them out." And in order that the sensitive plant does not become discouraged '.and die before it has blossomed to s amateurB.

A dinner consisting of buns, ham, baked beans, coffee and cookies was served at 12:30 to the hungry picnick­ ers. The eats committee was Miss Alice WHmarth, Ray Fisher and 'W. J. Harmon. The general coriiinittee for the affair was Miss Wilmarth, Mrs. Katherine McKinstry, secretary toF 'Mr. vl^isher, :H. W. Quigley and Mr. Harmon. The jeats were served Cafeteria style from the cabin.!

It IS 9! Scribulus to Give Sourbough Mix A dance to be known as the "Sourdough Mix" will be given by the Scribulus club, with the Cheney bas- ketball team as guests, Saturday ev­ ening, February 5. . Tickets are twenty-five cents and wilt be sold during this week by mem­ bers of the Scribulus club. All stud­ ents and faculty are invited. The gym is to be the scene of the party and will be decorated to carry out the idea signified by the unique nanie "Sourdough Mix." The dance will be in the nature of a hard time or old-fashioned dance and everyone is requested not to f'dress up" according to Miss Vanita Williams, president of the club. Unique features in program and refreshments as well as decorations are promised. Four Injuries In Past Week The infirmary has been put to use during the past week rather more than usual due to the illness of sev­ eral members of the student body and numerous accidents which have oc­ curred. The casualties from Sunday's ski­ ing party were Isabelle Crow, severe (ContinMd on P«*• Four) A jazz orchestra and an orginal play "In Story Book Land"-featured the clever prograni given by the third and fourth grades of Edison school in assembly Wednesday, Janur ary 26. Improvised musical. instruments were played by the third grade, ac­ companied by Beulah Bradford alt the piano. Their vocal selections were "Topsy-Turvy-Larid" and the "Cat and the Mouse." / They also played "America." Beulah and Wil- bert, both talented brunettes, enter­ tained the students with an instru mental duet, "Five - Feet Two, Eyes of Blue," which was received enthus iastically. Mr. Bradford is quite an accomplished drummer, having play­ ed for fojar yeans. His sister, Beulah, who plays entirely by ear* is a very promising pianist. "In Story Book Land" was an en­ tirely original dramatization giv£n by the fourth grade. The play show­ ed two children being entertained by famous characters come to life on Christmas live from all the favorite books of children . It required a great deal of work and was both clevfer and exceptionally well present­ ed. The cast was as follows: Little Kirel, Betty Leonard Pied Piper, Ben Johnson Clowns, Bobby Nesbit, Paul Leffingweii . Bunnies Hazel Platts, Merle Pouttu Pirate, Ronald McGrath Alice In Wonder­ land Dorothy Nuckles Peter Pah, Charlotte Wager Fairies, La Rene Pester, Rutfc Hayes, Betty Lund, Ger­ trude Fetter Dr. Doolittle, Bcbbie Rutter Mother Goose, Dorothy Gil­ bert William Tell, Vernon Grey Three Bears, Alma Culp, Feme Nut-k­ iss ,Phyllis Nuckles " Aladuin, Sidney West Pinochio, James Smith Rip Van Winkle, Halloe Smith Mad Hat­ ter, Clifford Campbell Robinson Crusoe, Charles Ayeman Children, Lena Stanley, Jean Redland, Marjor- ie Gibson. "A complete success" is the gist of the expressions of those attending the W. 'A. A. frolic, Saturday, Janu­ ary 29. The music, booths and pro­ gram combined- to1 make the frolic so popular an affair. The decorations were crimson and blade. Long streamers from the center, of the ceiling threw into prom­ inence the large crimson letters "W. A. A." The booths in each corner, carrying out the same idea, complet­ ed the decorations. The school orchestra played for the dancing, which was the main feature of the evening. Tiie program, which was scattered through the evening, was well receiv­ ed by the crowd. "The Birds' Ro­ mance," by Kelly Masters on and Go. opened the program. Marie , Lowe played two violin solos. The skit by "the Four of Them" followed. The Highland Schottische by Marguerite Wood and Freda Jones completed the program. , The preliminary count of expenses .showed that the frolic was a s'ue- IcesS financially as well as socially. The money will be used in the sweati­ er- fund for the girls. Josephine Mandl was the winner of the contest for selling the most tickets, with 33 to her credit. Lucille Greenlee was her nearest rival for the prize, to be awarded soon. An unusual feature of the frolic was^n the fact that every girl in the organization took an active part in the work. Credit is due to each one for her share in putting the frolic .over.' • _ ^ ' Fatmei W. A. A. girls returning for the -frolic were Marguerite Carr penter, Netta Cook . and , Julianna Bartholet. Cleora O'Neil, an active member doing cadet work at Selah, also-was here for the week-end. Science Initiates Expound Theories Embryonic savants ran the gaunt­ let of initiation at a social meeting of the Science club Monday evening, January 24. A number of the initiates were re­ quired to give extemperaneous lec­ tures on scientific subjects. Those who failed to respond were comepelled to stick their fingers into molten lead (which they did not know was mer­ cury). Harold McMackin expounded cigarettes Curly Glenn gushed on the process of making two-by-fours from sawdust Edith Bowers gave the ev­ olution of the knife and fork and Caddy talked about doughnuts 'till ev­ erybody's mouth watered Wayne Toivanen and Cecil Dayton discussed the health education department. The Layman spurted about spirits and spooks. One of the most interesting fea­ tures of the program was that in which Vera Mae Jennings directed Flora Stoliker and Ruth Bice in an aesthetic dance demonstration. The program was concluded by serving doughnuts and cocoa'. The initiates were as follows: Shir­ ley Mae Sams, Flora Stoliker, Ruth Bice Maud Quam Freda Barrick, Ella Kraus, Edith Bowers, Vera Mae Jennings, Ted Frichette, Harold Mc­ Mackin, Wsfyne Toivanen, John Cad­ dy, Gerald Glenn, John Layman and Cecile Dayton. WILDCATS 33 TO 30 IN FAST GAME HERE Two Overtime Periods Make Game Thrilling For Onlookers Cheney Here Saturday. Honoring the Bellingham team an open house was held at Kamola hall last Tuesday night, after the game The dancing lasted from 9:30 until 10:15. The school orchestra played. There was a large crowd present. Beauty contest pictures and other details will continue to keep the Hy- akem staff busy for the next few weeks. The winners of the beauty contest are to be kept secret until the Hyak- em is published. The staff is select­ ing a group of 12 of the fairest, spec cial pictures of whom will be sent to Ziegfield or Christie, to be judged. In most respects the book' shows promising signs of being a decided improvement oyer 'last year, accent­ ing to Mr. Harmon,v advisor. How­ ever only abbut 275 students have bought photo receipts while last year there: were about 75 more. Since the financing of the annual as Well as its interest depends to a certain extent on the sale of the receipts it is hoped that more students will buy their receipts this week. Miss Mollie Fitzell, senior class editor, is starting this week to col­ lect the photos which will be sent to the engravers next week. She is also arranging the names in alphabetical order and the second, year students are asked to hand in their activity lists as soon as possible. The pictures for the football sec­ tion were sent to the engravers last week-end. This section - includes ac­ tion pictures of all the men as well as photographs of the coaches, squad, yell leader and managers of the football and basketball. The pic­ tures are to appear as in a section from a college newspaper. The games are to be written from the viewpoint of an opposing team. Each page will be an exact reproduc­ tion of a newspaper page. The engraving for the cover is be­ ing done in gold and green with a cut scene which corresponds with the harvest effect carried out in the book. This cut is about four inches by five inches, being somewhat larg­ er than usual. COLONIAL Bill TO BE FEBRUARY 26 The Colonial Ball will^ takeplace February ,26, was the decision made by the sophomore class at a meeting Tuesday. The place is unknown. Several committees were appointed to arrange for the affair. Marian1 Hopper was named chairman .of the decoration committtee Jeannette Sloan, chairman of the program com- mottee Helen Grotewohl, chairman of the hall and decorations.. The sophomore meeting was held in the assembly at three o'clockt A very po6r" representation of the class was present' and therefore nothing was doiie about nominating officers so this will be done at the next meet­ ing. - The. matter of dues was brought up and it was decided that they must be paid immediately or nothing def­ inite can be done about the fcolonial Ball. •« To entertain a number of her friends, Miss Helen Laurence gave a bridge party Tuesday evening, Jan­ uary 18, aVher home. Pretty decorations gave a festive air to the occasion. Favor went to Miss Lolabel Christiansen and con­ solation to Miss Mary S^idrt. . 1 Those present were the Misses Luta Powell, Anona Ohristianson, Bernice Taylor, Maria Biglow, Lolabel Chris- tiansion, Marie Lowe, Dorothy New­ comer, Rose Manahan: and Mary Short. Miss Laurence left recently for Ho- quiam, where she will teach for the rest of the year. SERVE AT BANQUET Nearly 30 Normal girls assisted in serving at the seventh annual Kitti­ tas county stockmen't banquet, Mon­ day, January 24. The chamber of Commerce orches­ tra, which played at the affair in­ cluded among its members several of the Normal students. Loron Sparks director of training in the Normal school and president of the Ellensburg Chamber of Com­ merce gave the concluding talk on the topic "Lest We Forget." Holding the undefeated Bellingham Vikings to ten minutes of overtime play, the Ellensburg Wildcats were finally forced down to defeat to the tune of 33 to 30 last Tuesday even­ ing at the local Y gym. It was 6fte of those contests you read about where the game isn't over until the final whistle blows. Weak hearts were overworked as the two teams battled to a tie-score for the regular playing period, a scoreless overtime period and the final five minutes which turned the Vikings out winners- of a great contest. , : Bellingham opened with a flock of baskets to register 12 points before Panzica sunk one for the Wildcats. Jensen and Keplinger wiere making them from all angles and it looked • like a washout for the Vikings. El­ lensburg was having a tough time breaking through the defense of the "Normal by the Sea" and what shots they took were hurried. As the Wildcats got. their bearings they put up a better game and held the "Blue and White" in check a lit­ tle better. Even at that the visitors kept piling up a lead and the, score at half time was 24 to 14 against the home boys. Panzica and lies scored 0 points . each and smith 2 in this period, while Keplinger and Jensen were/ high men for Bellingham. Things were looking blue for the Wildcats at this time. _ Ellensburg Comes Back Now comes the second half in which the "Crimson and fiilacfe" made their bid for the evening's honors. The home squad went to work in earnest and started their long climb to make up the lead that Bellingham had piled up on them in the first half. With lies leading the attack and the whole team checking close they start­ ed what seemed a hopeless task. Wilcats Tie Score Before Bellingham realized what it.... was all about the Wildcats had scor­ ed 7 points without a score being chalked up against them, thus mak­ ing it 24 all. Smith was doing Some wonderful checking and it was now the Vikirtg squad that was finding it difficult to get 'close enough to score. Time after time they would start down the floor with the ball only to lose it before getting within shooting range. i As the score became closer both teams speeded up. Hurrying their paSses cost both teams to lose, pos­ session of the ball when • it seemed like a score Was inevitable. . " Smith Ties Score With about three 'minutes to go Smith dribbled down the floor and evading the Viking defense caged a field "goal to tie the score at 2 9 All, thus forcing the play, to an overtime period. Both coaches substituted new blood into the game at this time in an ef­ fort to break the tie. Harper went in for Keplinger on the Bellingham team and Brown for Thomas on the Wildcat squad. Time was. getting precious and both teams stained to shoot at every chance that presented itself. Al­ though these shots were close none of them were good for a score. To climax the whole shooting match, Smith shot one that balanced on the rim and laid there for what seemed to the spectators and both teams about ten minutes. It rolled to one side and then the other but finally dropped off on the side. It was about as close as any one could come a^d not make it. It was a tough break coming when it did. The regular playing time ended with the score still tied and an extra period was call­ ed to decide the winner. Bellingham Noses Out Both teams were tired and showed the effects of the hard struggle they were putting up. Henry went in for (Continued on Ptct Foor) ij" V

SHEEP OR GOATS Doesn't it seem to you that when the boys and girls of the grades and of high school have developed into young men and women of college age they should have the intelligence to see the value of honesty in examina­ tions. Cheating, if excusable at all, might be considered so in children who cannot see the underlying purpose in school routine. But for a man or woman who is paying out money and devoting several years to gain an educa­ tion to deliberately try to outwit himself, to defeat his own ends bespeaks plain lack of intelligence. There seems to be no shame connected with it in the minds of those who indulge in this means of doing their work. Perfectly open and unsheltered are the methods used and everyone seems welcome to the knowledge of their wrongdoing except the instructor. That is the hum­ orous side of the situation it seems. The dishonest stud­ ent tries his best to fool the teacher but he doesn't care what his classmates think. Surely the opinion of the in­ structor is not worth the sacrifice of the good opinion of all the rest of ones friends. It is shameful to the school and reflects on every member in the school when such an editorial must be written. It is true that there are many who place cheat­ ing on the level where it belongs but there altogether too many who do not. Think it over. Are you one of the foolish ones or do you belong to the group who looks at the cheater with more pity and sympathy for his mental weakness and disgust at the method in which this weak­ ness shows itself? WHAT CHANCE ELLENSBURG What chance has Ellensburg to win the Tri-Normal championship? All the chance in the world. If we beat Cheney we will be tied with either Cheney or Bellingham—depending up­ on which team wins its final game. The Wildcat games so far have shown that the boys have real stuff in them. It took a game like the Belling­ ham game to really bring it out. That night they played a real game and no one will deny it. Their sportsman­ ship was of the best. The team was well balanced and skillful. The student body did a lot to tie the score Tuesday night. A large majority of the students were there. They cheered the team even though it was behind from the first. That is the proper spirit. In fact it's the only spirit that is truly worthwhile. The time a team really neeeds support is. when it's losing and disheartened. The students at W. S. N. S. play an important part in the success of the athletic teams. We can all boost the games to our friends, the townspeople. We can all attend the games that are on the home floor ourselves. After we get down to the gym we can turn on the noise und not let it cease until the last gun goes off. But^— bur noise must in on way be intended to razz or rattle fur opponents.. If we all do our part we can be sure that the fellows on the team will give all that they have toward winning the games yet to be played. Come, on gang—we had a football championship- let's get the basketball honors as well. What say? preserve a reasonable amount of quiet and decency. A great majority of the students were disgusted and humiliated. Think it over and get the right side. Marion Howard Irene Courtion. S 0 s kJtudent \/ pinion U candals "STORY BOOK LAND" "Story Book Land" as presented before the student body assembly last Wednesday was a complete success. Its success is measured in more than one way. In the first place the little play gave an excellent op­ portunity for children to show what they could do. The dramatic and musical ability shown was very good. The teachers who coached the children in their parts and who were responsible are also to be commended. It is not often that a production as elaborate as that is put on by school children. Then too, the interest taken by the student body was worthy of praise. It has been a long time since the audi­ torium has been so crowded. Keep it up folks. ATTEND YOUR ACTIVITY What club do you belong to what activity are you signed up for ? Do you attend your club and activity as you should? Are you doing constructive work in the school through them? Our Normal organizations really do things for the school. Are you doing your share or do the officers and heads of the club do it all? Those of you who are indif­ ferent or who do not take much interest in your club will be surprised how much fun it is to get in and help put on something. Surely there are none of us who just signed up for our club or activity because we had to have a plus credit. Surely we wanted to help out all we could. The student who takes no particular interest in the things that go on around him here, will surely not be ij terested m his work if he ever gets out teaching. FILL IT UP Those students with observing natures have probably noticed the little brown box which has finally made its appearance in the post office. This box, with its artistic design warning the onlooker that is was built especially for S. 0. news, has a duty to perform. This task which has been chosen for the little box is to take good care of all contributions to the S. 0. until they have been taken out by the staff. All clubs have been notified that club notices and club meetings must be written and placed in this box. The same is true of personals and all other forms of news, such as parties, jokes, features. The box was placed there for use. Let's use it STUD. OP. SCANDALS IT'S ALL OVER NOW, BO. SOS What's all over? Why it's alfover school about this now.

Sports In Brief BEAT CHENEY HEROBOTEAH CLUB HIES MEIERS Initiation, coasting, and eating popcorn balls kept the members of the Herodoteans well occupied Fri day evening, at the home of Mr. Fish. The main business of the evening was the initiation of new members. A court scene was enacted with Mr. Fish as judge and Mr. Harmon was prosecuting attorney. The candi­ dates were carefully questioned as to their shady pasts. After due deliberation the follow­ ing judgments were meted' out: Har­ old Patchen and Richard Peterson a musical selection Adolph Roth, ev­ olution of the jig Rose Gattavara, talk'on boys Constance Bischoff, a German song Ted Murphy, an Irish song Gilbert Blunt, impersonation of comic characters. Besides this the entire group gave several clever skits. Several of the initiates having proven themselves quite talented,- coasting party .was enjoyed. The final feature of the evening was. the making of popcorn bails, in which everyone assisted and so an ev eryone was munching them with en thusiasm.

Page Four THE STUDENT OPINION Health Program In Selah School The cadet teachers at Selah, in working out their health program, have included the serving of hot and cold lunches, posters and graphs. At the' Unit school, milk and crackers are being served and the changes in weight are being hoted carefully. In one of the country schools hot lunch­ es are being, served every second day. In several of the rooms cleanliness and posture are being emphasized If a pupil receives a .red star for the first four days of the week a gold star is given for the fifth. The straight line graph is being used for posture, every one is working for a straight line which indicates a per­ fect posture.

With about 2 minutes to go O'Dell was awarded two foul shots and he con­ verted one to tie the score again and O'Dell again converted one out of two to put his team in the lead. The Viking squad started stalling to hold their slim lead. The Ellensburg squad had to play the floor to make them pass the ball. Although they had several shots the home team could not register. The Vikings put the game on ice when during the excite­ ment, Jensen, their start center, slip­ ped down and receiving a pass under the basket put the ball in for the final counter. The score read 33-3Q for the final count. The Wildcats put up a game fight and showed that they were deserving of all the support they were given. The loss of one game does not put the "Crimson and Black" out of the running as they play each team twice. A big crowd is expected to be on hand Saturday night to boost the team to victory over the undefeated Cheney aggregation.
