fplpt||ip ^^^^^^^^^WW^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^W^^^^^^W^' There has been some mention of a beard-growing contest for Campus day. We are not in favor of such a drastic move. It is all right for some of those guys who sport a young wheat field with a covey of quail on their phizzes but what about us'ns that write to their home town newspaper when they sprout peach fuzz after a week's steady sprinkling with Sterno, the miracle hair restorer. Anyway it's only 11 days until the gala spring festival date and already the performers in the crew races are getting ready for the watery struggle. At least that is the reason given us for the many cars parked along the Fill these evenings. The Fill is also known as the Furniture Factory estuary. We feel sure we have picked a winner in the pie-eating contest. We are ready to back Norm Dahl, the Seabiscuit, in any size pie. Norm is a graduate of the now defunct Beanery and as such, should give the other contestants a handicap. At the Beanery it was a case of the survival of the fittest and fastest. Norm is the best eater we have seen for lo these many years, both in quantity, speed, and finesse. . SHORT STUFF . . . Let it now be said that Dr. M. F. Cederstrom's son and heir apparent, believes in calling a spade a spade and not a dirty old shovel. For further particulars inquire of the 10 o'clock comp class of the erudite Minnesotan. Walter Baker, the Marietta Maurauder, confides that the Navy is growing very concerned over the Panama Canal zone and adjacent waters. Bake is tentatively slated for training there after he gets through his reserve training at Chicago. F u r t h e r news from Uncle Sam's front informs that Butch Franko, Don Bell, and Lobo Moscrip are safely at, Santa Maria. Don was made a leader of the Northwest cadets on the trip to California. Further news will be forthcoming next week, we keep telling ourself. Datelmi e Friday, May 2 AWS commencement tea. WRA Week-end trip begins.

WWC MUSICIANS HOST Western Wasnmgtori college music department will play host to high school musicians-from Whatcom and Skagit bounties next Thursday and Friday, May 8 and 9- • • ' The occasion will be the annual May festival which features, the instrumental arid vocal groups of the high! schools. The bands and orchestras will be heard in the college gymnasium Thursday evening and the vocal groups Friday evening. "yN^Buflding^ !

Of interest is the fact that there will be several stained glass windows in the structure, designed by Campus school students. —Courtesy Herald VOL. XL—NO. 28 Western Washington College of Education, Bellingharri, Washington Friday, May 2, 1941 Norse Sail Again; Islands Beware Annual Men's Club Cruise Dated for Sunday Morning. 75 to Participate on Trip As the Sea Scout ships, Activian and Legionnaire, put out of Belling - ham harbor Sunday morning, the annual Norsemen's cruise will get underway. According to Brian Rob-son, the boats are to leave the Municipal dock at 7:30 a. m. and will sail among the San Juan islands for the day, stopping at Sucia, Orcas, and Sinclair. As a help for students riot knowing the location of the dock, a party is to be organized at Edward's hall at 7 a. m. "Approximately 75 WWC students are to participate in this cruise, which Robson feels will be one of the most successful affairs the Norsemen have staged. The party will make a stop at Sucia island for lunch and from there will move on to Deer harbor at Orcas island. Last stop before hitting the Bellingham waterway at 10 p. m. will be Sinclair island. Those planning the cruise stress the fact that each member of the group should bring both lunch and dinner as well as cups and spoons. Coffee will be served by the Norsemen. Other suggestions offered by the committee in charge warn students to wear soft soled shoes and take heed of sunburn. In commenting on the cruise, Robson said, "Weil do quite a bit of singing and for this I would advise purchase of a copy of "Trail Tunes." They're on sale at the Research bureau for 10 cents a copy. I'm telling you this will be a good cruise, the best yet." Klipsun Staff Plans Color Schemes At a Klipsun staff meeting held last week, decisions were made as to the colors to be used throughout the book. The color of the end sheet was selected to harmonize with the cover. Golf, tennis, and track pictures were taken this week along with a series of pictures for the feature page. About 30 students (who are still wondering what it's all about) are being featured instead of the usual one or two who are designated as the most popular. Editor Shirlee Cratsenberg reports that the KUpsun is being printed now but that it is too soon to announce the date of release. Al Salisbury of the Western Engraving company spent last Friday afternoon with members of the staff discussng the 1941 Klipsun and possibilities for the 1942 book. TERMINAL EXAMS COME XfeAIN Terminal examinations will be continued Monday and Tuesday, May 5 and 6.

The topic of the address will be "The Community Survey and Its Relation to Modern Education," The speech will be based largely upon the Sedro-Woolley-Burlington survey to be made this summer under sponsorship of the State Planning council and the University of Washington workshop. The remainder of the meeting, to be conducted by Dr. Paul R.

Casa Lomans Give In Burlington Booked to come to the new $20,000 Roller frolic at Burlington for the grand opening Saturday, May 10, is Glen Gray and his Casa Loma orchestra. Gray is being brought to Burlington through the management of the Music Corporation of America. Musicians from jazz instrumentalists up to and including symphony men marvel at the band's tecfihical ability, its ensemble work, and the virtuosity of its soloists. The general public likes it not only for these features but because it is "commercial" without being "corny." WRA PLAY DAY MAY 10 High School girls from Whatcom and Skagit counties will be guests of the WRA at the annual Play day to be held May 10. The girls will be entertained during thei day with games and group discussions. Campus Day Dance Held as Usual Beards to be Grown, Planted During 5-Day Interim—Uh! As the 11 intervening days between today and Campus day dwindle away, two events have definitely been decided upon. An abbreviated, fiye-day beard-growing. contest will be held startm'gJ;Friday, May 9, and ending Campus day, May 13. The Campus day dance will be held the evening of yCampus day instead of the proposed Monday night before. Otherwise, the spring quarter highlight, with all its traditional fun, will be much the same as in past years.:' Cash prize contests will, feature part of the day. A $1 pftze each for the longest, reddest, and fanciest beard will be the incentive for bewhiskered WWC malfs in the Whiskereeno contest. Two winners, a boy and a girl, will be selected at Lakewobd in the( preliminary pie-eating contest. These two champions will battle in the evening assembly for a $1 first prize with 75 cents going to the loser. The third, and perhaps most aesthetic affair will be the men's bathing beauty contest. The male contestants, properly attired in swimming suits, will vie .for a $1 first prize. The second most "beautiful male" will receive 50pcents. The judges for these} Campus day contests have been tentatively announced as being female faculty members. -i Establishing a precedent^ the assembly committee is offering $2.50 first prize for the best skit in the evening assembly.

Breaking into the monotony of. the day,. Robert Moblo's faithful Model A conveniently refused to budge and it was only through the efforts of Bushell's front bumper that the entire band performed at Lynden. Lynden further proved to be the jinx of the trip when Don Bushell walked off, minus his hat, from the local cafe. P. S.—They sent it to him. Appearances in the near future scheduled for the band will include a Mother's day program at Larra-bee State park, an assembly program, and participation in the May day carnival. *" v AWS Commission Dines at Shell Barbecued crab will be the main course' of the installation dinner of the AWS commission next Monday night at the Chuckanut Shell.

WWC Students Shove Off for Victoria On Annua] Excursion Saturday Twenty-four lucky students are taking the annual spring trip, to the observatory in Victoria, B. C., said Miss Ruth Piatt. Surrounded by a bevy of students mounting spring plants gathered for various science classes, Miss Piatt enthusiastically spoke of what she termed, "the very lovely Victoria trip." A full program has been planned which will not only be educational but pleasurable as well. The real incentive for the trip will be the visit to the observatory which includes a. first-hand view of the telescope, housed there, one of the eight largest in the world,, a demonstration of research work by the astronomers, arid the showing of a selection of slides. The library, containing an exhibit of astronomical photographs, also will be visited. Although the observatory has been rumored to be closed, the Science department has received word that it is open and in readiness for the 'group. V ,-. The trip will begin at 7 o'clock, Saturday, and will-be by automobile to Anacortes where the ferry trek to Sidney begins. From Sidney, the trip; will extend along a beautiful shore drive to Victoria. Before the stars come out, Saturday evening, the group will visit the Empress hotel and the Parliament house of the province of British Columbia. Observations ; at the obsevatory will last as long as the observers can keep awake. The: typical English quietness of Victoria will probably be disturbed Sunday! morning by. the science group on their way to the famed and beautiftfl Butchart Sunken Gardens and to Beacon Hill park.: The group will reach Sidney in time for lunch and will then embark -twvifte^*ei!^ the picturesque San Juan islands. ; V^;;^;^:^:Kt'.;C'-\^ ^^^^^MmM$^^^^^^^^^^^

"Approximately 75 WWC students are to participate in this cruise, which Robson feels will be one of the most successful affairs the Norsemen have staged. The party will make a stop at Sucia island for lunch and from there will move on to Deer harbor at Orcas island. Last stop before hitting the Bellingham waterway at 10 p. m. will be Sinclair island. Those planning the cruise stress the fact that each member of the group should bring both lunch and dinner as well as cups and spoons. Coffee will be served by the Norsemen. Other suggestions offered by the committee in charge warn students to wear soft soled shoes and take heed of sunburn. In commenting on the cruise, Robson said, "Weil do quite a bit of singing and for this I would advise purchase of a copy of "Trail Tunes." They're on sale at the Research bureau for 10 cents a copy. I'm telling you this will be a good cruise, the best yet." Klipsun Staff Plans Color Schemes At a Klipsun staff meeting held last week, decisions were made as to the colors to be used throughout the book. The color of the end sheet was selected to harmonize with the cover. Golf, tennis, and track pictures were taken this week along with a series of pictures for the feature page. About 30 students (who are still wondering what it's all about) are being featured instead of the usual one or two who are designated as the most popular. Editor Shirlee Cratsenberg reports that the KUpsun is being printed now but that it is too soon to announce the date of release. Al Salisbury of the Western Engraving company spent last Friday afternoon with members of the staff discussng the 1941 Klipsun and possibilities for the 1942 book.

WWC Students Shove Off for Victoria On Annua] Excursion Saturday Twenty-four lucky students are taking the annual spring trip, to the observatory in Victoria, B. C., said Miss Ruth Piatt. Surrounded by a bevy of students mounting spring plants gathered for various science classes, Miss Piatt enthusiastically spoke of what she termed, "the very lovely Victoria trip." A full program has been planned which will not only be educational but pleasurable as well. The real incentive for the trip will be the visit to the observatory which includes a. first-hand view of the telescope, housed there, one of the eight largest in the world,, a demonstration of research work by the astronomers, arid the showing of a selection of slides. The library, containing an exhibit of astronomical photographs, also will be visited. Although the observatory has been rumored to be closed, the Science department has received word that it is open and in readiness for the 'group. V ,-. The trip will begin at 7 o'clock, Saturday, and will-be by automobile to Anacortes where the ferry trek to Sidney begins. From Sidney, the trip; will extend along a beautiful shore drive to Victoria. Before the stars come out, Saturday evening, the group will visit the Empress hotel and the Parliament house of the province of British Columbia. Observations ; at the obsevatory will last as long as the observers can keep awake. The: typical English quietness of Victoria will probably be disturbed Sunday! morning by. the science group on their way to the famed and beautiftfl Butchart Sunken Gardens and to Beacon Hill park.: The group will reach Sidney in time for lunch and will then embark -twvifte^*ei!^ the picturesque San Juan islands. ; V^;;^;^:^:Kt'.;C'-\^ ^^^^^MmM$^^^^^^^^^^^ |
