A-'V VOL. XXXI—NO. 33 WASHINGTON S T A T E NORMAL SCHOOL, BELLINGHAM, WASHINGTON Friday, June 2, 1933 is DISIRBIITION TODAY First Two Hundred Students Who Present Themselves Will Receive 1933 Annual I t 's here! The 1933 personality Klipsun will be distributed this afternoon to the first two hundred students who present themselves for it. And personality is a good adjective. Eileen Morrison, editor, has suceed-ed in creating an annual that represents the very breath and spirit of our school. Here are its features: The phetographs have been described as being the "clearest, best- . looking that have been in an annual for many years." The engraving shows careful workmanship, and the photography is as artistic as could be desired. The cover a modern red and black design on a gray background, is excellent. The division pages are something new! Instead of art work these pages are photographs of personalities representing the section which they head. The personality pages cap—two pages of sketches of the people behind the scenes in school activities. This is the most interesting page in the book. The writeups, give the book its charm, and they are new and appealing, quite different from the ordinary writeups in annuals. The makeups show an attempt to get away from the established things. Notice the arrangement! These and many other features make this Klipsun one of the best which have appeared in all time. NORMALITE .SPECIALS CELOFANE A PLAN By PAUL M. JACKSON Last Saturday I was standing on Holly street watching a greengrocer paint prices on his window. "Green Peas, 6 pound for 25c; Special." "Tomatoes , so much; cucumbers, so much; Special." Then with a grand flourish, or perhaps it was a gesture of despair which he realized that he could not find room on his window to special all his wares, he painted; " E V E R Y T H I N G SPECIAL". W.S.N.S.- A sign on a truck boldly announced: Liquid Celofane. So great was my curiosity that I flagged the driver and demanded details... Everyone knows how instantaneously popular cellophane became for wrapping practically every commodity that is fit for display to the public. All wares from toothbrushes to candy is attractively covered in the new product derived from wood. But Liquid Celofane opened up a world of possibilities. It is, I discovered, peculiarly fitted to give a lasting and, beautiful finish to cars, floors, walls, cabinets, anything thaLis exposed to the deteriorating effects of the air.. Such a product is one more step toward—. W.S.N.S. — Comment from a person who had just finished reading 100,000,000 Guinea Pigs: "My gosh! is there anything I can buy. or eat?"

Sophs Are Giving Yearly Award for High Scholarship Mary Brock to Receive Silver Cup with Her Name Inscribed Each year one freshman receives a silver trophy from the sophomore class of the school for scholastic achievement in all subjects. Mary Elizabeth Brock, graduate of Whatcom high school, was awarded the trophy this year. The handsome silver cup will be inscribed with the winner's name, and the winner will keep the cup for a year. Mary Brock has many interests in life. Her greatest desire at present is to complete her teacher training in order that she may teach in a Junior high school. She is also very much interested in science, and hopes that later on she may qualify as an assistant in a chemical laboratory. She has already decided to continue her work in science in order to achieve that ambition. From information secured from her best friend it was discovered that Mary does "not care for sports. "Her health will not permit her to engage in strenuous activities," said the informant. "While most people never get close enough to Mary to know just what kind of a person she really is, I know that she is one of the wittiest and most clever persons I have ever known. She is pleasant to talk too, does not think her scholastic attainment should be taken too seriously, but she is, naturally, very proud of receiving the award." COMPETITION IS CLOSE Ladder Tournaments Are Drawing to a Climax This Week While rain has been holding up the play in the Tuesday and Thursday tennis class, the competition in the Wednesday and Friday class is nearing completion. Shaffer and Jensen emerged from their matches last Wednesday as winners and will play for the championship of that class. Shaffer defeated Erickson to go into the finals and Jensen defeated Jones. They played one set of their championship match last Wednesday, which Jensen won, and will complete the matches tftis Friday. The Tuesday and Thursday class has not met for the last couple of weeks because of bad weather and because the varsity tennis team was using the courts for matches. Because of this, the matches in this class have not reached the quarterfinal stage yet. It is doubtful whether the play will be completed in this tournament as there is not much time left. q— George Lilligard visited his brother in Tacoma last week-end. GIVEN NEXT WED. Dot Fiala Has Charge of Affair; Men's Chorus Presented, Also Scholarship Cup Wednesday, June T, has been set for the annual class day of the graduating class. Davy Jones and Dorothy Fiala have charge of the assembly program to be presented at 11 o'clock. Mr. Victor H. Hoppe is the class adviser for the occasion. There are many class formalities to be taken care of at that time, among them being the presentation of the freshman cup awarded to the member of the freshman class who has highest scholarship for the school year of three quarters. Pat Allan will present the cup as president of the sophomore class. Djoris McElmon has held the cup for the past year. Music Is Given A program of music has been arranged including many numbers by the Men's chorus who will be making their first official appearance this year. Ransford Wise will present a clarinet solo as an intermission number. George Barbo will sing several tenor solos. The program, although not definitely settled, will probably include some natural dancing numbers or a short dramatization of some kind. Prexy to Give Address President Fisher will, as usual, give the final address to the nineteen hundred and thirty-three graduates of the Bellifigham State Normal school. (Continued on Page Two) GAMPGRAFT GLASS VISITS SILVER LAKE Week-end Spent Far from City; Real Experience Gained Carrying out the methods learned in the Campcraft class, eighteen members of that class made a trip to Silver lake last week-end. The following students made the trip: James Barnhart, Marvin Al-lyn, Roger Chapman, Carl Barbo, Wesley Cole, Ralph Childs, Sidney Comfort, Abner Breakey, Fred Knapman, George McMeen, Don Matheny, Jim McNeely, Clifton Per-ryman, Harold Berenston, Ralph Shenenberger, James S t o d d a r d, Herman Tegenfeldt, Bill Moultray, Donnie Van Doren. After the five-mile hike from,Maple Falls to the lake, games were played that would be suitable for any camping trip; such as baseball and (?) fire-building. In the evening stories were told and games were played, also a huge bonfire was kept going until all turned in. The boys returned Sunday afternoon about 4 o'clock. Ruin of Ancient Greek Structure Described by an Art Enthusiast Have you noticed the picture which hangs across the hall from the auditorium? It is that of the Athenian Acropolis. The buildings are located on a percipitous and lofty flat-topped hill. The hill is about one thousand feet long by five hundred feet wide, and reachs its maximum elevation of five hundred and twelve feet on the northeast side. Prior to the fifth century B. C. an ancient Pelesgian wall surrounded the plateau; but this has fallen into ruin, except on the north side. Around the base to the hill, especially on the south are grouped numerous temples and theaters, the chief of these being the Temple of Aescul Apius, the Theater of Dionysus, and the Odeon or Herod Atticus. A series of edifices occupy the summit. Among these buildings are the Pro-pylaea, the Pinacotheca, the Temple of Nike and the Parthenon. Parthenon Is Famous Probably the most familiar of these buildings is the Parthenon. This building is two hundred twenty- eight feet by one hundred one feet. The Parthenon was constructed in 447 B. C. and by 438 A. D. it was ready for the reception of the great statue Athene Parthenos. The temple seems to have remained practically intact until its conversion into a church in the Byzantine times. Later, in 1458, the (Continued on Page Four) Graduation Ceremony is to Conclude School Activities for Year; Plans Announced Twenty-Seven to Receive Life Diplomas June 8 During Exercises Twenty-seyen candidates will receive their life diplomas at the graduation exercises Thursday, June 8. To earn the life diploma the candidate must have completed the three year course, three years of approved teaching and at least one quarter of the three years' work must have been completed after the experience teaching was done. The following are the candidates: Gudrun C. Anderson, Ruth Esther Anson, Ruth Pauline Bump, Rachel Cooper, Caroline Reed Dawe, Jessie A. Dunckley, Richard V. Grainger, Evelyn Hagen, Irene C. Hagen, Margaret C. Harmeling, Edwin F. Hun-nicut, H. Raymond Johnson, Luella Jones, Marie Louise Keppler, Blanche Madigan, Harold C.

It can't be done, it was discovered, so a motion was made to use hands, which were made before forks anyway. This was all decided at the Klipsun picnic over at Loganita lodge last Monday evening, where the staff celebrated the finished annual. After a dinner of said fried chicken with all the trimmings the group adjourned to the reception hall where cards and pool were played. Soon four of the more courageous souls braved the icy waters of Pu-get Sound and when we say icy we Board of Control Decides Question Summer Viking Work to Count as Full Quarter Whether the five issues of the Northwest Viking which will be issued will be termed a full quarter's work or an extension of the spring quarter was the main topic of the Board of Control meeting Monday, May 29. Mrs. Ruth Burnet, faculty adviser of the paper, said that if the five weeks were to count the same as a full quarter, sufficient material would be given to qualify as a n extra quarter's work for pins. However, as one person can hold the position of editor for four quarters only, this was questioned. After discussion it was voted to count summer quarter as a full quarter to all the Viking staff. Bills from the Co-op for 18 scholarship pins were presented. As the Students' association pays for half of the pins and the students receiving them for the other half, it was voted that $13.50 be given to the Co-op. It was decided that the $2 voted for football and the coach's salary be put into the athletic fund at the beginning of fall quarter. o SPRING BOOK FAIR. INTERESTS MANY Collection of Volumes Shown in Children's Library Annual Senior Assembly Is Farewell Gesture to Normal School (Continued on Page Three) SHORTER TO SPEAK AT BACCALAUREATE Services to be Held Sunday at Normal Auditorium As a gesture of farewell to the Normal school the senior class on Wednesday, June 7, at 10:30 in the Normal auditorium will present the annual senior class day assembly. Dorothy Fiala, in charge of the program, says that this should be the most successful and enjoyable program of the quarter. The presentation of the freshman scholarship cup and dances by senior members of the P. E. classes are but two of the lesser treats in store for those attending this last student assembly. Numerals to be Placed Next Wednesday evening at 8:15 on the Normal school campus the impressive ceremony of placing the class numeral in the cement walk bordering the front of the main building will be performed. This solemn occasion has taken place every year since the founding of the school. At nine o'clock, following the placing of the numeral, there will be a faculty reception for Normal grad-- uates in the reception room at Edens hall. Not only are the graduates invited, but their parents and friends will be cordially welcomed as well. This reception is always looked for- The Rev. Fred W. Shorter, pastor of the . P i l g r i m Congregational church of Seattle, will preach the baccalaureate sermon Sunday afternoon. The service will be held in the Normal school auditorium and will begin at 4 o'clock. The program will open with the processional hymn, "Praise, My Soul, the King of Heaven." The graduating class will enter singing this hymn, and will remain standing while the Rev. Dwight C. Smith, pastor of the First Congregational church of Bellingham, gives the invocation. The congregation will join in singing the hymn, "Oh, Worship the King." President C. H. Fisher will next read the Scripture and Rev. Smith will offer prayer. Following this, the women's chorus'of the Bellingham Normal school will sing "Forget" (Hadley). The chorus is conducted by Donald Bushell. The baccalaureate sermon by Rev. Shorter will, follow this. Mr.,;Bushell will! play a, 'cello solo, "Apres Une Reve" (Faure). He will be accompanied by Edith R. Strange. Rev. Shorter will pronounce the benediction, and the afternoon's service will be concluded with the recessional hymn, "Oh, Mother Dear, Jen^em.-' •'. Never before has the children's library offered such a gala exhibit tion of books as are displayed at the spring book fair. Starting Wednesday after the seventh grade book program, the book fair will continue until next Monday. No matter if you are not interested in reading new books,, it will be a pleasure to visit the children's library just to see the gaily-covered, brightly-bound volumes that fill the shelves and tables. These books have all been borrowed from a local book store for the occasion. Among the types of books displayed are books of travel and children's story books of all kinds, any of which would make excellent graduation gifts. The librarians have worked hard to make their unique display a success and are very anxious to have the collection of books examined. Not only are the students and faculty urged to come, but the townspeople as well will be welcomed. (Continued on Page Two) —c— PROGRAM OE MUSIC GIVEN IN ASSEMBLY School Band, Women's Chorus, and Men's Chorus Are Presented Bellingham Normal school's band, women's chorus and men's chorus presented a program in assembly this morning. The women's chorus is directed by Donald Bushell, and the band and men's chorus are directed by Paul Lustermann. The program was opened by the band, with "Military Escort" (Bennett). Ransford Wise then played a clarinet solo which was followed by three numbers by the women's chorus. They sang "Summer Is a- Coming In," a traditional round; "The Lotus Flower" (Schumann), and "Cuban Nocturne," by Lester. The bass section of t h e men's chorus sang "Asleep in the Deep," after which Brabazon Lindsy played a piano solo, "Pathetique" (Beethoven). A brass quartet composed of members of the band then played a number. The men's chorus sang Nevin's "Rosary," "One Sweetly Solemn Though" (Ambrose), and "The Cossack" (Moniuszko). Paul Lustermann then gave a trumpet solo, and the band closed the program with a march. Taps Are Tapped for Tap-Dancer as Sweeper Sweeps Sweepstakes You have probably seen glances lightly cast from one lover to another, doubtless you have also noted the look on a calf's face as its mama fondly lavishes its feelings all over the place—but we doubt if you have eveif seen such a look as that which Jimmy Campbell gives to our own "Pop Gwinn." Yes, dear children, there is a story behind it all. Grass Suffers It was a sprightly day in May, the birds were out worm digging, the campus school children were all busy doing/their best to ruin the grass, Normal students were doing their bit to create havoc around the school—and, all in all, life was very much affected by the obvious "spring-ness" in the air. One child* (Jimmy) especially, seemed to be in high spirits and was exercising himself by running around the track when all at once he saw what he thought was a good chance to show his very superior abilities along the lines of athletics—and running in particular. He had seen "Pop" cast roving eyes at him as he was passing carrying out his day's business, and he had heard "Pop" mention that he had done some running when he was a youngster the age of Jimmy, and so, thought Jimmy, "Why not challenge "Pop"—he ought to be a Cinch."

It can't be done, it was discovered, so a motion was made to use hands, which were made before forks anyway. This was all decided at the Klipsun picnic over at Loganita lodge last Monday evening, where the staff celebrated the finished annual. After a dinner of said fried chicken with all the trimmings the group adjourned to the reception hall where cards and pool were played. Soon four of the more courageous souls braved the icy waters of Pu-get Sound and when we say icy we Board of Control Decides Question Summer Viking Work to Count as Full Quarter Whether the five issues of the Northwest Viking which will be issued will be termed a full quarter's work or an extension of the spring quarter was the main topic of the Board of Control meeting Monday, May 29. Mrs. Ruth Burnet, faculty adviser of the paper, said that if the five weeks were to count the same as a full quarter, sufficient material would be given to qualify as a n extra quarter's work for pins. However, as one person can hold the position of editor for four quarters only, this was questioned. After discussion it was voted to count summer quarter as a full quarter to all the Viking staff. Bills from the Co-op for 18 scholarship pins were presented. As the Students' association pays for half of the pins and the students receiving them for the other half, it was voted that $13.50 be given to the Co-op. It was decided that the $2 voted for football and the coach's salary be put into the athletic fund at the beginning of fall quarter. o SPRING BOOK FAIR. INTERESTS MANY Collection of Volumes Shown in Children's Library Annual Senior Assembly Is Farewell Gesture to Normal School (Continued on Page Three) SHORTER TO SPEAK AT BACCALAUREATE Services to be Held Sunday at Normal Auditorium As a gesture of farewell to the Normal school the senior class on Wednesday, June 7, at 10:30 in the Normal auditorium will present the annual senior class day assembly. Dorothy Fiala, in charge of the program, says that this should be the most successful and enjoyable program of the quarter. The presentation of the freshman scholarship cup and dances by senior members of the P. E. classes are but two of the lesser treats in store for those attending this last student assembly. Numerals to be Placed Next Wednesday evening at 8:15 on the Normal school campus the impressive ceremony of placing the class numeral in the cement walk bordering the front of the main building will be performed. This solemn occasion has taken place every year since the founding of the school. At nine o'clock, following the placing of the numeral, there will be a faculty reception for Normal grad-- uates in the reception room at Edens hall. Not only are the graduates invited, but their parents and friends will be cordially welcomed as well. This reception is always looked for- The Rev. Fred W. Shorter, pastor of the . P i l g r i m Congregational church of Seattle, will preach the baccalaureate sermon Sunday afternoon. The service will be held in the Normal school auditorium and will begin at 4 o'clock. The program will open with the processional hymn, "Praise, My Soul, the King of Heaven." The graduating class will enter singing this hymn, and will remain standing while the Rev. Dwight C. Smith, pastor of the First Congregational church of Bellingham, gives the invocation. The congregation will join in singing the hymn, "Oh, Worship the King." President C. H. Fisher will next read the Scripture and Rev. Smith will offer prayer. Following this, the women's chorus'of the Bellingham Normal school will sing "Forget" (Hadley). The chorus is conducted by Donald Bushell. The baccalaureate sermon by Rev. Shorter will, follow this. Mr.,;Bushell will! play a, 'cello solo, "Apres Une Reve" (Faure). He will be accompanied by Edith R. Strange. Rev. Shorter will pronounce the benediction, and the afternoon's service will be concluded with the recessional hymn, "Oh, Mother Dear, Jen^em.-' •'. Never before has the children's library offered such a gala exhibit tion of books as are displayed at the spring book fair. Starting Wednesday after the seventh grade book program, the book fair will continue until next Monday. No matter if you are not interested in reading new books,, it will be a pleasure to visit the children's library just to see the gaily-covered, brightly-bound volumes that fill the shelves and tables. These books have all been borrowed from a local book store for the occasion. Among the types of books displayed are books of travel and children's story books of all kinds, any of which would make excellent graduation gifts. The librarians have worked hard to make their unique display a success and are very anxious to have the collection of books examined. Not only are the students and faculty urged to come, but the townspeople as well will be welcomed.

Paul Lustermann then gave a trumpet solo, and the band closed the program with a march. Taps Are Tapped for Tap-Dancer as Sweeper Sweeps Sweepstakes You have probably seen glances lightly cast from one lover to another, doubtless you have also noted the look on a calf's face as its mama fondly lavishes its feelings all over the place—but we doubt if you have eveif seen such a look as that which Jimmy Campbell gives to our own "Pop Gwinn." Yes, dear children, there is a story behind it all. Grass Suffers It was a sprightly day in May, the birds were out worm digging, the campus school children were all busy doing/their best to ruin the grass, Normal students were doing their bit to create havoc around the school—and, all in all, life was very much affected by the obvious "spring-ness" in the air. One child* (Jimmy) especially, seemed to be in high spirits and was exercising himself by running around the track when all at once he saw what he thought was a good chance to show his very superior abilities along the lines of athletics—and running in particular. He had seen "Pop" cast roving eyes at him as he was passing carrying out his day's business, and he had heard "Pop" mention that he had done some running when he was a youngster the age of Jimmy, and so, thought Jimmy, "Why not challenge "Pop"—he ought to be a Cinch."
