Richardson, Hostetter Divide Cash Purse;
Fisher To Officiate
At Rechristening And Drawing Today
BY HINCHLIFFE
Fate, through the guise of five
.''Rename Normalstad" judges, has
decreed that everlasting fame and
fortune shall be equally divided, be­tween
WWCs faculty and student
body. Miss Charlotte Richardson,
of the industrial arts department,
and Helen Hostetter, business man­ager
of the Klipsun, handed in that
winning inspiration, Lakewood.
To President C. H. Fisher, who
also suggested the winning name,
but who acted as a contest judge,
will go, the honor of rechristening
the college playground today at
Tennis Court Dance
Tonight;
'SaveiYour Energy'
Are you tired? Are you sun­burned?
Are you mad 'cause you
didn't win the name contest? But
the all-important question is: Are
you saving enough energy for the
dance tonight? It'll be new and it'll
be novel besides having all the ear-

to the decision of the other four
judges.
With the jackpot totaling $11.15,
the winning bag of gold is filled
with $8.36 worth of dimes and nick-les.
According to rules laid down
for the contest, the co-winners will
receive $4.18 each. The consolation
award is made up of the remaining
shekels, which amount to $2.79.
Meeting at' 9:00 a. m. Monday
morning, the judges went to work
immediately. The list of proposed
names was divided into three groups;
taking each group separately, each
judge ranked the names one, two,
and three, according to his judg­ment
The scores for each name
were totaled, and the three best
names from each group were se­lected'and
compiled in a separate
list The final list was ranked and
scored in the same manner as the
other three. Lakewood ranked first.

Stupendous Events
Slated For Today
The time of the affair has even
been extended and dancing will be
from 8:30 until 11:30. Mel McKee's
orchestra, which will render its in-sancapated
hi-diddles, will be seat­ed
on a raised platform. Colored
flood lights will afford effective il­lumination
with Mr. Moon and his
satellites acting as powerful helpers.
And it's guaranteed the courts will
be danceable. Two hundred pounds
of good old corn meal have been se­cured
to do the trick—but it's at
warning you'd better wear old shoes.
The entire faculty have been cor­dially
invited and it is hoped that
there will be many members in at­tendance.
Patrons and patronesses
will be: Miss Helen Jenkins, Miss
Virginia Bever, and Dr. attqillrs. M

WWC Co-eds Featured
In Oregonian;
Pictures Shown
"Nestling in the shelter of fir-clad
Sehome hill and overlooking beauti­ful
Bellingham bay is the Western
Washington College of Education, a
state-supported, accredited four-year
college," says the Portland Oregon­ian,
of Sunday, May 16.
The Morning Oregonian, in its
regular weekly series of pictures of
colleges on the Pacific coast, last
Sunday featured pictures of seven
prominent co-eds from the WWC
campus. The girls to break into
print were: Bonnie Jean Wilson,
Helen Acklen, Maxine Moldrem,
Florence Lund, Anna Padden, Virgie
Boal, and Joan Hoppe.
Another picture featured was a
scene of the library as seen in mid­winter.
With the snow-clad trees
in the foreground the library made
a highly imposing picture..
"I can't understand where all
the poetic inscription came from,"
commented Don Gooding, the lad
responsible for the publicity end of
the page. "WWC put up a good dis­play
of pulchritude and. photog­raphy
equal at least to any of the
twelve contributions sent in by the
other schools."

Willis Makes Claims
Willis claims this event to be the
one and only of its kind ever to be
staged at WWC. Come'out and take
it in, for there are sure to be laughs
and thrills galore when these husky
behemoths mix it up in the ring to­gether.
Assembly Mysterious
To find out about the assembly
program, you'll have to come and
see for yourself. Chairman Norma-jane
Gorsline insists that the big
event be kept a mystery, so we poor
reporters, know-nothings ourselves,
can't enlighten you in any way.
Here's one little tip, however. Elsa­belle
Cruttenden plays the role of
an unruly training school sixth
grader and Virginia Holm falls in
love with Leon Hewitt. And, Boy!
how she falls!
Faculty Battles
A battling faculty baseball team,
headed by Coach Ruckmick, plans
on upsetting the student team's ap­plecart.
Both teams will have a lib­eral
sprinking of femininity in their
lineups. The time is 4:30.
Dancing under the stars, a la Cali­fornia
style, is what Marge Osier
promises at her tennis court dance.
Varicolored lights and soft tunes of
Mel McKee's orchestra should en­tice
all to come out and swing it.
This novelty dance, first in a cou­ple
of years, should prove a great
success and lots of fun.

For Prexy!
Prexy, here are your do's
and dont's for the long antici­pated
ceremonious christen­ing
of our playground (accord­ing
to Emily Post).
You MUST send announce­ments
as soon as possible, but
DONT! (by any means) print
them,—you might telephone
though.
Godmother Jenkins must
hand the new arrival to you
and immediately after the
sprinkling, don't forget to hand
the baby back. Godfathers
Cederstrom and Bond must
stand beside the bottle—of
lake water. The godparents
must present to the new arriv­al
a silver mug, a porringer
(mush-bowl to us youngsters),
or a fork, knife and spoon.

fir, hemlock or cedar) should

beans) should be served with
