COOK YOUR OWN AND GET SUNDAY DINNER FOR FIFTY CENTS REBUILT SUITS ARE O. K. YOUNG HOUSEKEEPERS OF THE SCHOOL POINT OUT POSSIBILITY FOR THRIFT " Give 'em the axe, the axe, the axe!" shouted forty of the young housekeepers of the Bellingham Normal at a meeting held Wednesday, January 21 — not in actual words, of course, for that would have been undignified, but according to the rule that actions speak louder than words. Old H. C. L. must have trembled when he heard the dire plottings against his disastrous reign. SUNDAY DINNER AT THE CEDARS A correctly balanced Sunday dinner for fifty cents! Sounds almost too good to be true in these days, and yet this is the feat accomplished by the girls at the Cedars who not only secured a dainty and attractive meal, but also one that contained the number of calories reguired, to sustain one. o.n„the„.day of rest. The menu and price list follows: dALORIES COST Clear tomato soup 100 .03 Croutons 25 .01 Roast pork and gravy 150 .15 Mashed potatoes 150 .03 Jelly, currant 50 .01 Waldorf salad 150 .08 (Continued on page 2.) MEN OF SCHOOL E MINORITY PARTY THINKS THAT IN UNITY THERE IS STRENGTH ELWOOD DAVIS PRESIDENT Acting upon the suggestion of Dr. Miller, men's advisor, the men of the school at a meeting last week adopted a constitution and elected officers for the remainder of the year. Fearing that the young women of the school might consider this a leap year protective society, organized after one month of hazardous trial, the men wish to state that the organization was suggested by Dr. Miller at the men's banquet held in December, 1919. Since that time meetings have been held and a short time ago a committee was appointed to draw up a constitution and by-laws, which were accepted at the last meeting. In accordance with the provisions of the constitution, the following officers were elected: Davis, president; Sim-onson, vice president, and Loree, secretary. Normal Team Wins In Whatcom Basketball Games Score in Boys' Game Stood 14-4 End First Half WHATCOM HIGH FAILS TO FULFILL HER BOAST AND THE NORMAL SCHOOL TEAM CAPTURES THE CITY CHAMPIONSHIP Normal School Girls Also Win by Score of 18-16 MISS MOFFATT'S FAST SEXTETTE DEFEATS CLEVER WHATCOM TEAM IN A CLOSELY CONTESTED GAME OF BASKETBALL On Friay evening, January 23rd, the Normal basketball team won the city championship title from the Whatcom High School by a score of 18 to 12. The Normal was on hand with a large delegation of rooters that rivaled the Whatcom rooters in cheering on their respective teams. Playing a close game in which every point counted, the Normal girls defeated the hitherto supposedly invincible Whatcom girls by a score of 18 to 16. ; BOYS' GAME FULL OF THRILLS Interest had run high in this game, the Normal team having defeated the Whatcom team by one point two weeks before. This was in the Normal gym, however, and the wise ones had it that BELLINGHAM STATE NORMAL SCHOOL BASKETBALL TEAM Back row — Davis, Black, Coach Carver, McPherson. Front row — Sangster, Bartruff, Jenkins, Torkston. Whatcom was bound to win as they would be playing on their own floor and the Normal team was not used to playing on a large floor. In the downtown districts the betting dropped from Whatcom winning by 12 points to Whatcom winning by 8 points. History again repeated itself and again the prophets were wrong. The closest Whatcom ever was to the Normal score was during the first five minutes of play when Whatcom caged a free throw and the score was 3 to 1 in favor of the Normal team. WHATCOM SCOHES MOSTLY ON FOULS Most of Whatcom's points were made on foul throws and even then the score was 14 to 2 until the last few minutes of the first half when Crum, of Whatcom, tossed in a field basket, making the score 14 to 4, in favor of the Normal, at the end of the first half. During the second half Crum secured one more field basket and six more free throws were tossed in, bringing up their total to 12. Meanwhile Jenkins, Yorks-ton and others, continued to throw field baskets bringing the Normal score up to 18 . thereby winning the game. A feature of the game was the close guarding of Bartruff and Davis, the Whatcom forwards failing to get a basket during the entire game. Both of Whatcom's field goals were thrown by their center.. Cole, Crimson guard, was put in during the last of the second half but failed miserably in coming up to the (Continued on page 5.) DELEGATES REPORT AT WEDNESDAY ASSEMBLY IS = DEVOTED TO REPORT OF DES-MOINES DELEGATES ARE INSPIRED BY MEETINGS (By CLYDE BANCROFT) The Wednesday assembly was devoted to the reports of the delegates from the convention at Des Moines, who were representatives of the Student Volunteer Movement. Miss Kessler spoke first, using the topic of " The Composition of the Convention." She told of the trip east, the special train, weather, and of the vesper services held enroute, finally of their arrival at Convention Hall. Miss Kessler mentioned the inspiration that one received upon entering the Coliseum, and seeing the thousands of delegates who had gathered from the four corners of the world, and to learn that in the first twenty rows alone, forty nationalities were represented. The Normal delegates were seated near the front just' back of the Canadians. She spoke of the platform filled with prominent missionaries, among the most prominent was John R. Mott, chairman of the convention; Dr. Robert Speer, Sherwood Eddy and S. Earl Taylor, and gave some idea of the wonderful speeches and section meetings. In closing, Miss Kessler thanked the students and others who had made it possible for her to have had this truly "great-continued on page. 2.) THINGS WORTH WHILE McMORROW OF Y. M. C. A. AND DR. HARPER GIVE STEPS LEADING TO SUCCESS Mr. W. B. McMorrow, state representative of the Y. M. C.

He said in part: '" We, as young people, have the world in our hands. It is up to us.
