^:. ilriior Greitlpirchasable May I Proposition Before Faculty In Regard to Crest's Use on Letterheads, Catalogs According to Parker Pratt, chairman of the Senior Crest committee, the crest will not be. purchasable until after the first week in May. In the meantime a proposition is being taken up before the Faculty committee in regard to the use of the crest on letterheads and as cuts for bulletins and catalogues. There has been some discussion as to the advisability of having a bronze cofa made to place below the main entrance steps. Before the jewelry arrives, the Crest committee, which includes Helen Trickey. Hal Booth, Wanda Barci, and Brian Robson, along with Pratt, will meet and adopt a code governing,the use of the crest, that is when the pin is to be worn and the position on the clothing. The committee will also check on the number of credits necessary to determine the eligibility of students desiring pins. The crest is round with a wreath of laurel, encircling a Norse shield. In the center is a Viking ship with a background of sea and clouds. At the top of the crest is a helmeted head of a Norse chieftain and crossed behind the shield are two swords. In'June, all alumni will have an opportunity to adopt the crest at their annual meeting to be held in Edens hall. This promises to be a joyous spring for the hep cats and jivesters of the smaller towns and hamlets of Washington. Bremerton had Duke Ellington for a one-night-er a couple months ago; Bellingnam thronged to hear Kay Kyser and now Burlington, home of Uncle Wayne Weber, comes up with Glen Gray and his. Casalomans. All these have been under the auspices of Jay Curtis, local orchestra im-pressario. Mons. Curtis deserves a big hand for his courage in importing those name bands and we feel that the swingsters will appreciate his effort by appearing at Burlington on the tenth of May for the showing of the Casalomans. Next Thursday brings into being in the state of Washington, an added bugaboo of 1 per cent more sales tax. This tax will be the same as the present one on cokes and nickel — -'s. It will be less on purchases up to 30 cents. Thereafter start digging, because it begins to pay off in pennies.' When all of us buy that new car this spring for $1,000 the tax will be 3,000 pennies. Roughly speaking that is 15 pounds of pennies, and what's rough about that? Not many people know it, but the baton that will be passed by the Yiks in this CPS meet today has been around a lot more than the Norse cinder-smiths who will be handling it. The same stick was passed around the pre-war Europe, Paris* Basel, Switzerland, and other points the barnstorming Olympic American relay team touched. Norman Bright, former Viking miler and present holder of the Winco mile record, was the 1,500- meter man on the team and he sent the baton to Track Coach Sam Carver.

His presence will insure WWC's representation at this conference in which colleges and universities from the entire west coast will participate. Shiers will leave by train next Tuesday. John Thomassen, recently elected to the position of four quarter man or woman representative to the Board of Control, tendered his resignation at Wednesday's meeting but the Board refused to accept it. Because of illness in the family, ThcJmassen was forced to withdraw from school until fall quarter., According to the constitution, Frank Shiers, ASB president, can appoint a substitute to take Thom-assen's place until he returns. Valkyries To Swing Late in Spring Committees have been appointed for the Valkyrie Spring dance to be held at the Country club, May 24, announced Valykrie President Lois Heaton.

XL—NO. 27 Westera Washington College of Education, BelIjngham, Washington Friday, April 25, 1941 'FLASHED AS THEY f LfRNED IN All? Props flashing in the weird glow of arc lights which flood Randolph field, US Army training center, in central Texas, a squadron of Vultee trainers make ready to spring into the darkness to execute night maneuvers. These planes were piloted by the February class of flying cadets of which Buell Nims, WWC '38-'40 is a member. This class having now completed their second stage of training, will entrain for Kelly field, Texas for more advanced instruction in air acrobatics. WWC Receives Recognition as Faculty Representatives Travel Afield Miss Irene Elliott, Campus school second grade supervisor, will leave Monday on a trip which will absent her from WWC for the rest of spring< quarter. Miss Elliott will visit schools included in the current study being conducted by the National Council on Education. Planning to cover as many of these schools as possible before returning to the college at the beginning of summer quarter, Miss Elliott will go as far east as New York city. She will visit elementary schools at Reading, Colo., and Troy, Ala., a number of rural schools in Alabama, and elementary schools in and around Chicago and New York city. Teachers colleges included in her. itinerary will be Kalamazoo Teachers college, Milwaukee State Teachers college, and the Universty of North Carolina. Taking Miss Elliott's place during her absence will be Mrs. Norma Crowe, WWC graduate. UPSMALL BEGINS WORK ON TESTS FOR DEAF Dr. C. C. Upshall, director of the Research bureau, was one of a committee of five appointed by Dr. Percival Hall, president of Gallau-det college, to study problems on the construction and installation of intelligence and achievement tests in schools for the deaf. A conference on problems of deafness was held last May under the auspices of the National Research council at which time a number of problems of investigation in the field were recommended. HUNT SPEAKS AT IRC Thomas Hunt WWC Social Science instructor, presented a talk on his Panama-Caribbean cruise to the International Relations club at their regular meeting last Wednesday evening. Betty Gilbert, IRC presiedent, announced that the club will discuss the Balkan situation at their April 30 meeting. | "Certainly a successful meeting," was Dr. Lucy Kangley's comment regarding the third biennial gathering of the Puget Sound Council of Teachers of English held at the University ,of Washington. Miss Kangley, president of the organization, spent last week-end attending the conference. Among the speakers was Stuart Holbrook, author of "Holy Old Mackinaw" and other well-known stories. While at the conference, Dr. Kangley had an opportunity to meet James Carroll former WWC speech instructor. Several representatives from the college, the local high school, and elementary grades accompanied Dr. Kangley on the trip. Summer NYA Jobs Made Available Summer NYA work is now being made available on Out-of-school Work programs, according to George P. Sheridan, state administrator of the NYA. Students who are interested and will be in this locality during the summer can make application to Terry H. Cook, Jefferson Grade school, Everett, Washington. • Due to the National Defense program there has been more need for NYA workers and so for the first time summer work\ is being offered. For the out-of-school work program youths must be from 17 to 24 years of age. NYA employment is available in nearly all sections of the state on the basis of 60 hours per month at a wage of $18. Students who will be located in other parts of the state during the summer can make application at the offices in Spokane, Wenatchee, Yakima, Seattle, Tacoma, Vancouver, Aberdeen, and Chehalis. An announcement will be placed on the NYA bulletin board which will 'give further details. Jughead Walks Off; Good Landing Caught by a down-draft as he came in for a landing, Arthur Son-neland. CAA student pilot, nearly cracked up his plane Tuesday evening at the Lake Whatcom seaplane base. Although Sonneland thought the plane was sinking, he soon realized that only one pontoon was submerged. In an attempt to balance the plane, he climbed from the cockpit onto the high wing. As the plane slipped into its landing, the pontoon struts were strained and fabric was torn from one of the wing tips as it sliced the water. "While the damage to the plane is not considered serious," said Herb Haley, flight instructor, "flight training will be suspended until repairs are made to the plane." It is estimated that it will be a week or 10 days before repair parts arrive. Rae Burke Elected Lit. Club Prexy Election of club officers for next year was held at the Monday, April 21, meeting of Vanadis Bragi in the Edens Hall Club room. The following persons were elected: president, R<ae Burke; vice-president, John Hudson; secretary, Phyllis Thompson; and treasurer, Declan Barron. Annis Hovde and Alta Hicklin were elected as delegates tto the nomination convention. The evening program was devoted to the discussion of books on the Negro problem. Phyllis Thompson reviewed "Porgy" by DuBois Bfey-ward, Alta Hicklin reported on "Scarlet Sister Mary," by Julia Peterkin; Jean Hogg reviewed Richard Wright's latest book,'" "Native Son," and Betty Hogg reviewed Wright's "Uncle om's Children." COMMITTEE CHOOSES ANNOUNCEMENTS Announcements for graduation have been chosen and will be available in the Co-op store soon for graduating juniors and seniors. The style and type of announcement were chosen last Wednesday by a committee composed of Parker Pratt, chairman, Dorothy Gates, Irene Fyhn, and Don Kinzer. Full Speed Ahead Signal Given As Great Day Draws Nigh Norsemen Cry 'Last Call For Boat Trip' "One boat is filled and we have 7 people signed up for a second boat," was the comment of Brian Robson as he announced plans and schedule for the Norsemen's cruise to be held Sunday, May 3. The Sea Scout boat, Activian, will leave the Municipal dock at 7:30 a. m. and will make a 2% -hour stop at Sucia island for lunch before go-. • ing on to Deer harbor on Orcas island where a short stop will be made before the four-hour stop at Sinclair island. At Sinclair, the WRA girls who are to spend the week-end at Viqueen lodge, will join the party to return to Belling-ham. They plan to return about 10 o'clock Sunday evening. The price, of the tickets is 75 cents and the participants are asked to bring their own lunch. Coffee . will be served. The Activian will carry 40 "passengers and the other boat for which the clubmen are negotiating will hold 35. Those in-, terested are asked to sign early. Plans and arrangements for the cruise are being handled by the- Norsemen's Recreation committee, which is composed of Maurice Mc- Clellan, chairman, Bill Junkin, Mickey Smith, Winton Olson, and Brian Robson. Dack Beats Drums For Rainclouds "These rainless days may be;enjoyed by the students but they don't promote the germination of seeds," says Head Gardener George Dack. It seems that the irate gentleman promised to have grass high enough to cut on the newly worked ground south of the Library within six weeks of the time of seeding. The sprinkling system is installed and the seeding is completed, but grass a grab and a half high will not be flowering on schedule. Mother nature has conspired against us and decided not to favor the new addition to our campus beauty with sufficient quantities of H20. This would be of no consequence, according to Dack, if the sprinkling system had been completed; however, because of a holdup in the delivery of pipe this was not possible. Just how long it will be before the plumbing can be completed is not certain but Dack assures us that it can't be too soon to suit him. AWS TO HONOR WOMEN GRADUATES WITH TEA Honoring the women graduates, a fashion show and tea will be held Thursday, May 1, in the Edens Hall Blue room. The tea will be held from 3:30 to 5 p. m. with the fashion show beginning about 4:15. The Women's League Fashion show and tea is an annual affair at WWC. This is sponsored by the AWS. - Clothes appropriate for commencement will be modeled. . Plans for Bigger and Better Campus Day Progressing As McClellan Goes To Town Make way for Campus day! With only 19 days remaining between today and that spring quarter highlight, committees are busily engaged in formulating further plans. Recently added to the list of events for Campus day is a male beauty contest. The last event of this type was held in 1939 with Joe Moses walking off with top honors. Moses is still in school and consequently offers tough competition. Again as last year, the pie-eating contest will be an important feature of the day. Last year's champ, Pete Gudyka, and runner-up Beatrice Nilsen are said to be challenging all comers. ""The pie-eating preliminaries^will be held at Lakewood. The finalists will then compete against each other in the evening assembly. Manners in this affray are taboo; ,;speed will be the only consideration. "•:-:•- Campus day isn't a day of contests alone, however. The crew races share the spotlight'at Lake-wood. Several veteran crews have already announced their plans to have a five-man crew that, according to them, will be able to hold their own against the Washington Huskies. A proposal has been made that the Campus day dance, which heretofore has been held in the evening after the day's festivities, be held the Monday night before Campus day. Co-eds could then stay out until 12:15. This, too, would eliminate that "tired feeling" one experiences about 9 o'clock Campus day'evening. Plans in Progress For Conference County Superintendents' Meet Scheduled by Faculty; To Be Held Here, May 7-8 Plans are in progress for a county superintendents' conference to be held at WWC Wednesday and Thursday, May 7 and 8. Heading the faculty committee in charge of arrangements for the conference are Co-Chairmen Miss Elizabeth Hopper, Appointment bureau director, and Miss Mary E. Rich, director of the Training school. Other faculty members comprising the committee are: Dr. Irving Ei Miller, Loye McGee, Miss Vivian Johnson, Miss Emma Erickson, Miss Mabel Zoe Wilson, and Miss Gertrude Longley. Questionnaires have been sent out to the county superintendents of Washington, in order to determine how many will be attending, and to receive suggestions as to what should be included in the conference. Patterned largely after the superintendents' conference held last spring, this year's conclave will include observation of Campus school classes and assembly, discussion groups, a dinner, and a tea to which all WWC June graduates are invited. Recent Lecturer Apologetic for Delay; Terms War a Young Man's Game By Pat Sutton ' "I fetl very much humilated," apologized grey-haired Will Irwin, famous war correspondent of the last World war. "I nave traveled all over the world and never in my life have I been late to anything." Irwin had looked at the time table wrong and had kept the students of WWC waiting for him for nearly half an hour. Seated in one of the desks in the school room off the auditorium Irwin rested for a moment after his speech on "How to Read a Newspaper." "Yes I had quite a bit to do in the last war," he said, "but war is a young . man's game. Elderly men have no business mixing in it, so I have had to cut this one out." . Irwin spoke in rather a nasal voice and not too clearly, probably due to his hearing defect. "I got this in Italy during the last World war," he remarked, pointing to his earphone. "I also got a bad leg from playing football in my youth; I'm not so young anymore." ^ "During the last war, I was the European war correspondent for the Saturday Evening Post from 1915 on and after that I organized our foreign propaganda," explained Irwin to the usual assortment of autograph hounds and celebrity hunters. Irwin visited Bellingham some 20 years ago and was pleased to return and speak here again. "I can't quite remember whether I spoke at the college or some place in town last time I was here," he told his interested listeners. "You know 20 years is a long time." About this time Dr. W. W. Haggard, WWC president, enticed the famous man away from his admirers to the Edens Hall Dining room for lunch. As he left, Irwin politely thanked the interviewers for his talk with them, making them feel as though they were the famous guests and he but a Collegian staff reporter.

May I
Proposition Before Faculty
In Regard to Crest's
Use on Letterheads, Catalogs
According to Parker Pratt, chairman
of the Senior Crest committee,
the crest will not be. purchasable
until after the first week in May.
In the meantime a proposition is
being taken up before the Faculty
committee in regard to the use of
the crest on letterheads and as cuts
for bulletins and catalogues.
There has been some discussion
as to the advisability of having a
bronze cofa made to place below
the main entrance steps.
Before the jewelry arrives, the
Crest committee, which includes
Helen Trickey. Hal Booth, Wanda
Barci, and Brian Robson, along with
Pratt, will meet and adopt a code
governing,the use of the crest, that
is when the pin is to be worn
and the position on the clothing.
The committee will also check on
the number of credits necessary to
determine the eligibility of students
desiring pins.
The crest is round with a wreath
of laurel, encircling a Norse shield.
In the center is a Viking ship with
a background of sea and clouds. At
the top of the crest is a helmeted
head of a Norse chieftain and crossed
behind the shield are two swords.
In'June, all alumni will have an
opportunity to adopt the crest at
their annual meeting to be held in
Edens hall.
This promises to be a
joyous spring for the hep
cats and jivesters of the
smaller towns and hamlets
of Washington.
Bremerton had Duke
Ellington for a one-night-er
a couple months ago;
Bellingnam thronged to
hear Kay Kyser and now
Burlington, home of
Uncle Wayne Weber,
comes up with Glen Gray
and his. Casalomans. All
these have been under
the auspices of Jay Curtis,
local orchestra im-pressario.
Mons. Curtis
deserves a big hand for
his courage in importing
those name bands and we
feel that the swingsters
will appreciate his effort
by appearing at Burlington
on the tenth of May
for the showing of the
Casalomans.
Next Thursday brings
into being in the state
of Washington, an added
bugaboo of 1 per cent
more sales tax. This tax
will be the same as the
present one on cokes and
nickel — -'s. It will be
less on purchases up to
30 cents. Thereafter
start digging, because it
begins to pay off in
pennies.' When all of us
buy that new car this
spring for $1,000 the tax
will be 3,000 pennies.
Roughly speaking that is
15 pounds of pennies,
and what's rough about
that?
Not many people know
it, but the baton that will
be passed by the Yiks in
this CPS meet today has
been around a lot more
than the Norse cinder-smiths
who will be handling
it. The same stick
was passed around the
pre-war Europe, Paris*
Basel, Switzerland, and
other points the barnstorming
Olympic American
relay team touched.
Norman Bright, former
Viking miler and present
holder of the Winco mile
record, was the 1,500-
meter man on the team
and he sent the baton to
Track Coach Sam Carver.
