Cowboy Songs, Music Feature • In Winter Play Swanson and Scott Take Leads For Drama Production This, Winter Cowboy songs—old and sentimental— will be featured in the production of "Green Grow the Lilacs", the winter quarter drama. Sixteen cowboys and farm girls accompanied by a hill-billy band, under the direction of Nils Boson of the Music department, will sing such ballads as "Goodbye, Old Paint", "Blood on the Saddle", and "Home on the Range". Leads Sing Helen Scott, who- plays the part of "Laurey Williams", and Boyd Swanson, who plays "Curly Mc- Lain", both have singing parts. Almost everyone in the cast sings or makes an attempt to sing. The title of the play itself was taken from an old cowboy ballad of that name. "This drama is one of the few authentic western folk stories that we have", said V. H. Hoppe, the play director. "It is full of robust humor, written in the provincial speech of the Indian territory in the nineties. Phonetically it is an interesting transcription of early western speech". "Green Grow the Lilacs" was successfully produced by the Theater guild three seasons ago. Playing in London this fall, the drama is one of the few westerns to captivate British fancy. o Skiing Enthusiasts Plan Third Jaunt Ski Tournament Included in Trip; Students Stay at Glacier "We're going on a real trip this time", stated Kenny Wickstrom. "Before we all had fun, but there wasn't enough time. Now we're really going to ski in earnest". The skiing enthusiasts are leaving the College Inn at 6 a. m. Saturday.

While still studying there she was awarded a $1,000 scholarship to *be spent in" Europe. In Paris she began working directly in stone and wood, "The Prodigal Son" being an example of her work at that time. She lived for a number of years at the studio of Lorado Taft, the eminent sculptor. Some of her outstanding works are: "The Baby Pegasus" which won the Mansfield Jones prize in 1930; "The Baby Centaur"; "The Cat That Walked By Itself"; and "The Pioneer Woman", Frederick Hibbard's name may Board Sends IRC Delegates Boxing, Tennfs, Baseball Problems Brought Before Executives; Funds Asked Advancing $30 in order that five students may attend the Internat-onal Relations conference March 20 and 21 and defeating the proposal that a boxing ring be purchased, the Board of Control met Wednesday after school. Truman Kennedy, boxing instructor, announced that though a ring could be bought at a bargain there is no room for it in the school building.

President Mon Orloff pointed out that these delegates would report £heir experiences at the first student assembly of the spring quarter. Printing Discussed With the consent of the Board, President Orloff will investigate the costs of installing a printshop in the/ main building. As manager of the tennis team, Orloff suggested that the Board appropriate money for equipment so that members of the team will not be subject to personal expense. Lack of facilities for baseball were mentioned but* the Board expressed dsire to strengthen this sport'. Mabel Rolle will report at next week's meeting on the proposed substitute for a Student Union building.. It is thought a house near the campus majr ne rented for this purpose. Eastern Washington Invasion By Basketball Squad Results Wildcats Win; Cheney Next Industrial Arts 60 Nlo w Two Co urses Leap Year Theme Of Sophomore Hop Turk, Osier, Chairmen of Party To Be Held February 29 "Do you think To find a woman without any fault? Or is't because the men are ne'er to blame?" Faults or no faults, women have the opportunity once in four years to take the initiative. An ideal situation is offered at the "leap year" sophomore party to be held Saturday evening at 8:00 p. m.,. February 29, in the Big gym. Co-chairmen of the event, Marge Osier and Steve Turk urge every Normal student to keep February 29 open in his date book. To the women Marge confides, "It's a chance in four years". To the men Steve admonishes, "Give the girls a break". Even the Big gym will be transformed into a glamorous abode with "spots" and decorations according to the co-chairmen. "Since the treasury reports $36", Steve adds, "refreshments will be served". (Continued on Page Four) . .—o- High School Leaders To Convene With WL Violinist Is Presented By Civic Music Group Bronislaw Huberman, violinist who will appear as the Civic Music association artist March 16 in the auditorium of the First Presbyterian church, is one of the best of the contemporary * musicians, according to many critics. He ranks 'with Fritz Kfeisler and Jascha Heif itz in ability and was soloist with the Berlin Philharmonic orchestra for several years. Born in Poland, this is his second trip to the United States. Work Covered With Attention On Two Major Phases "Industrial arts 60, formerly given as one course covering two phases of instruction, will in the future be given as two courses, industrial arts 60 and 61," says Miss Charlotte B. Richardson, industrial arts instructor. "We feel that the work, which covers preparation for both primary and intermediate grade instruction, merits more attention in each phase, and this cannot be given in a single course, necessarily limited in time." Pottery, Bookmaking Taught Industrial arts 60 will include a study of pottery during the first weeks, and a. study of books and records from the standpoint of binding, bookmaking, and general preparation during the latter weeks. Handwork in both studies will be stressed preparing the student for work in primary classrooms without the need of tools. Industrial arts 61 will include work with tools and machines, and is designed to give the student practical experience in woodworking and the handling of tools and materials. Pupils Gain Wide Experience "Two courses in the place of one will give the student a much wider experience both in working with tools and without," Miss Richardson states. "This will be much more beneficial to him in starting out into the field of school teaching." o Weythman Attends Athletic Convention As representative of Bellingham Normal, Miss Ruth Weythman, of the women's physical education department, is attending the Northwest District of the American Physical Education association meeting in Portland, today and tomorrow. Miss Weythman remarked that a varied and interesting program was arranged. This morning an opportunity for visiting the various schools in Portland is being offered and in the afternoon open sessions will be held for discussion this evening. As chairman of the Constitutional Revision committee, Miss Weythman will report on that subject. — .—& W Club Members Talk Over Smoker That the W club smoker would take place either March 6 or 13, was decided at the W club meting Tuesday night. Although few members showed up for the club meeting, it was decided that an attempt would be made to secure the Liberty hall, from the American Legion, in which to stage the fight. In case the hall is used there will be a small charge to the public as the boys say they expect to put up a good battle. Lappenbusch Takes Eight Players On Annual Hunting Trip For Savages Dzeidzic Unable To Go Vander Griend Will Check West In Tomorrow's Battle In an unusually rough game, the Bellingham Vikings lost the first game of their Eastern conquest when the Ellensburg Wildcats eked out a 22 to 20 win. The game was played in Ellensburg last night. The Vikings had another of their usual off nights. With eight men and a manager, Coach Chuck Lappenbusch boarded a train Wednesday noon for a four day trip in Eastern Washington. Although this sounds like a society note, Lappenbusch has keyed his men to an entirely different state of mind in an attempt to take the Vikings' ,,- two eastern rivals, Cheney and Ellensburg. The Vikings played Ellensburg last night and will have a two day rest before they come up against Red Reese's Cheney Savages. Captain Shel Stutz, Bob Pence, and Chet Dombroski made the trip as guards, Bud VanderGriend, Jerry Pence, Dick Carver, and Phil Tnypan as forwards, and Bob Phair as center. For the Cheney game, the coach plans to match speed with speed and let VanderGriend check the: speedy little Savage forward, Bert West. West proved to be the sparkplug of the Cheney quintet in their recent invasion. Trip To Meadows Scheduled by WAA Accomodations For 25 Persons; Trip Limited to WAA Members Heather meadows will be visited by the WAA on Sunday, March 1. Tickets, costing $1, will be on sale in the Women's PE office February 24 and 25 from 2:00 to 4:00p.m. Attendance is limited to WAA members and transportation facilities will accommodate only. 25 persons. The bus will leave the Normal, at 6:30 a. m. and arriving at Heather meadows skiing and hiking will be the main activities. Leona Trager, general chairman, says, "The trip is well worth a dollar and you will be served coffee at the meadows", and she goes on to say, "but don't forget your own lunch for coffee is merely a filler". Committees asssiting Miss Trager: publishing, Helen Acklen, chairman, Ellen Holm, Virgie Boal; transportation, Marion Price, chairman, Maureen McClellan, Hazel Oie; refreshments, Elsie Merry, chairman, Fran-' ces Mayhew, Lois Hankamp. Nation Pauses To Honor Hero Conferences for Girls' club representatives from county high schools in conjunction with the annual WAA playdays were broached at .the weekly noon meeting of the Women's League commission Wednesday. Commission members are planning round table . discussions, a luncheon, and a tea for the all-day meet which will take place this year to May. Mary Jane Moergeli, who prsided at th noon gathering, announced that a committee from the Women's league and the WAA \jrtll formulate definite plans for inviting the high school girls and for ,$ie program..."'.',!. • Maxine Moldrem, Josephine Vog-ler^ Jeanne- Borgstedt, and Clara Vander Griend substituted for ijom-rnission members who were unable Ability of Fathers of Country Subject of Much Discussion Citizens of the United States celebrate the birthday anniversary of George Washington, American national hero, and "first citizen" tomorrow, February 22. j Few periods in bur history have seen such discussion concerning the ability and foresight of the fathers of this country as has been witnessed during the past year. The constitution and organization of. our cpuntry have been the subject of study and constant, criticism. Many modern statesmen believe that the constitution is no longer able to fulfill its purpose as the first law of the land and others, have made a vigorous defense of its value/ In view of these facts many debunkers are inclined'-ito?- under-c URRENT ALENDAR of Happenings to attend the meeting., = ,-. ••.^.:Jestimt^:..tbe.:^eatIless^alid:'''ii^xifl&- of the statesmen who brought the American nation into being and who are not only among the greatest in our annals but among the world's best. No doubt can exist as to genius and greatness of the man whose anniversary the nation is about to celebrate.

Cowboy Songs,
Music Feature
• In Winter Play
Swanson and Scott Take Leads
For Drama Production
This, Winter
Cowboy songs—old and sentimental—
will be featured in the production
of "Green Grow the Lilacs",
the winter quarter drama.
Sixteen cowboys and farm girls accompanied
by a hill-billy band, under
the direction of Nils Boson of
the Music department, will sing such
ballads as "Goodbye, Old Paint",
"Blood on the Saddle", and "Home
on the Range".
Leads Sing
Helen Scott, who- plays the part
of "Laurey Williams", and Boyd
Swanson, who plays "Curly Mc-
Lain", both have singing parts. Almost
everyone in the cast sings or
makes an attempt to sing.
The title of the play itself was
taken from an old cowboy ballad of
that name.
"This drama is one of the few authentic
western folk stories that we
have", said V. H. Hoppe, the play
director. "It is full of robust humor,
written in the provincial speech
of the Indian territory in the nineties.
Phonetically it is an interesting
transcription of early western
speech".
"Green Grow the Lilacs" was successfully
produced by the Theater
guild three seasons ago. Playing in
London this fall, the drama is one of
the few westerns to captivate British
fancy.
