We tried it, and this is our statement—it simply isn't logical! Why trade some measley little blues for a flock of black and blues? - o-—o Varied and weighty questions arise—is a woman's place in the home? Should she get as much pay as a man for equal work? WeB r—quoting another prof—yes,| and no! Some people think that there's not enough work in the home for them to do—but, on the other hand, if they'd discard ye famouse -can-opener for a long white apron and make some food like "mother used to make" perhaps a few of the men would find that they wouldn't have to drink kraut juice for "that tired feeling". o o ' A lot of folks are committing suicide! Prttty nice ending every-thing for a good long sleep! But, on the other hand, you don't gel up for breakfast, either. o-—o ,-- Speaking of publicity — Japan takes the proverbial cake! Every little move she makes—bing! Her name is plastered in big letters somewhere on the upper region of every newspaper published. They're shrewd people, too, these Japanese, and inclined to be a trifle dangerous if not taken in the right way. People are beginning to think they should be shaken well before breakfast and put in a cool, dry place for a couple of generations. Then again—lots of them would give a good old eye tooth to get a little of their publicity for personal use! o o Ghandi's in jail now, too, isn't he? What a shame! We send our best regards and a couple of those coy little sheets he wears, and we hope he'll be back at his spinning before long! ——o- o . What a lot of talk there's been about Hoover lately, both pro and con. We heard some soap box elocutionist raving about how much better he could do. We dare him to roll up his sleeves and try! He'd find it such hot work that he'd wish himself back on his little soap box. That same man made a statement something like this, too." What we need is another war. There are too many people!" And I suppose, in the killing off process, the bullets and bombs and gas and cannon balls would have lots of fun dodging him and. his!

This action was decided upon at the regular meeting of the Board, Wednesday, Jan. Is. Sivert Skotheim, chairman of an investigation committee, reported at the Wednesday meeting on the advisability of changing the requirements for eligibility in obtaining an athletic sweater award so that they would be consistent with the participation requirements as set by the State Normal Trustee's Board last spring. Ruling Differs The requirements as outlined in Article 3 Section 6 of the by-laws of the Students' Association constitution of this school are: "That no individual shall receive an award who has not completed at least twelve hours of satisfactory work in the institution in the quarter in which he has earned his sweater. That the student shall turn out for each respective activity during the entire season unless excused by the coach for some legitimate reason." The ruling of the trustees is that only ten hours of satisfactory work are to be required in order to participate. •'•'•'•'* Change Proposed' . r Skotheim, after conferring with Coach S. E. Carver and President C. H. Fisher on the subject, suggested that a change, be made in the constitution. The Board of Control favored the report and passed a motion tnat Skotheim's suggested be presented to the student association as a whole, for a vote at some future date. It was further decided that President Colin Campbell appoint a committee to investigate any possible changes in the constitution, as it now stands, to make it consistent with the new state requirements which make this school a three-year institution. The constitution in its present form was written to (Continued on Page Two) PLANS FOR WINTER QUARTER DISCUSSED W. A. A. Officers, Chairman and Advisers Meet Monday Officers, sports chairmen, and advisers of the Women's Athletic association met last Monday evening, January 11, at the home of Miss Weythman for supper and discussion of the plans for winter quarter activities. Possibilities of sending a delegate to an athletic association conference to be held in April in Los Angeles were discussed. The organization is in favor of having a representative attend this conference. . For the purpose of looking into the Los Angeles meeting further Dorothw Top and Theona Flick were, chosen as a committee. Plans for several social and special activities were also discussed at the supper meeting. It was suggested that a boys' and girls' dance be held on February 12. June McLeod was appointed chairman of this and will appoint her own committees at an early date. Plans for an outing to the meadows in the snowwere; also-made. Jan. 30 was chosen.-"as a tentative date, although .^^p':is;';^';:jqtdtfii: todefijrdtev^^^^ take a trip to the Viqueen lodge p Stoclj^ fan. 27 Is New Date Set for Concert of Symphony Orchestra That the date of the Little Symphony concert will be changed to Wednesday, January 27, from January 19, the date previously set, was announced by Harold B. Smith, director. This change was made due to conflicting dates. As some of the members are from the Seattle Symphony, it was impossible to have it a week from the original date because Seattle will hold its symphony concert at that time. The program for the event is as follows: Symphony in B minor, Schubert; overture, "Midsummer Night's Dream," Mendelssohn; Ballet Suite, Gluck; Intermezzo from "Naive," Delibes; Polonaise from " B o r i s Godounof," Moussorgsky; Entr'acte from "Rosemunde," Schubert; Aragonaise from "Le-Cid," Massenet. The program will begin at 8:20 and student activity tickets will admit, as was announced before. Frosh Class Party Will Be "All Wet" In Deep Sea Idea The freshman class party to be held January 29 in the big gym is expected to be a unique affair, with a selected committee working on a "deep sea" idea. , Jack Burns' orchestra will play. Bennerstrom Chairman The party is being headed by the general chairman, Liilian Bennerstrom, who is assisted i>y a general committee consisting of L o u i se Armstrong, Naomi Watson, Mar-jbrie Morris and June Jevning. Those on the decoration committee are Verna Thomas, Eleanor Fraser, Joyce Pf ueller, Doris McElmon, Ro-sanne Young, Grace Goddard, Howard Wasley, Stewart Blythe, Jimmy Thompson and Bob Diehl. The program committee, Marjorie Morris and Dorothy Fiala, and refreshment committee, June Jevning and Jean McMillan. Plans Approved "Mr. Hoppe, our faculty adviser, is very much in favor of the plans for the party," says Miss Bennerstrom, "and I believe enthusiasm should be found among the class more than is shown concerning usual class functions." Sophomores who were freshmen last quarter will be given tickets to the party because no party was held last quarter. WOMEN ASSEMBLE WITH PURPOSE OF FORMING PEP CLUB Girls Given Opportunity to Sign on Bulletin Board for Membership to Club CLUB ADVISERS CHOSEN (Editorial Comment; See Page 2) With the purpose of creating pep and stimulating school spirit, a group of girls have been meeting to organize a Pep Club. Before the club can become an organization their constitution must pass the faculty board of affairs. A committee of Elsie O'Donnell, chairman, Ruth Neal, Mary Hibbs and Naomi Watson was elected to draw up a constitution. This will be submitted to the girls for approval before it goes to the board. Horton Adviser Miss Margary Horton, swimming instructor, was elected as adviser to the club. All girls who are interested in such an organization were given the opportunity to sign up on the bulletin board. After today the membership will be closed for the rest of this quarter. Meetings Held Two meetings were held this week. At the first meeting Miss Mildred Tremain, secretary to the dean of women and now acting in her place, explained to the girls the reason that a Pep club which was started two years ago was a failure. A special meeting was held Wednesday noon for the girls to decide on some issues to be in the constitution. — o— REC HOUR ORCHESTRA WILL COMPETE TODAY Future Whitemans, Lombardos, and Arnheims will display their wares during the Rec hour this.afternoon in the competitive tryout to decide which orchestra will dispense tantalizing tunes and snappy syncopation for the benefit of dancers at the Rec hour this quarter. Every band that desires a chance to tryout will be given an allotted time during the Rec hour from 4 to 5:30 this afternoon and at the conclusion of the dance the Board of Control headed by Colin Campbell will make the selection. Various Courses Organized For Students Interested In Music Are there courses in Music of-A fered to students of this school as mediums for individual musical expression? "Many courses are organized for the benefit of students interested in almost every phase of music according to H. B. Smitn, director of Music department. Through the medium of phonograph records the student becomes familiar with works of the great composers of the world. Compositions of Beethoven, Liszt, Grieg, Bach, and some of the moderns, are analyzed and explained. The student in Music Appreciation learns to understand good music. Not only is he taught to know good music when he hears it but to discern which is good and which poor. Is there a school orchestra? According to Mr. Smith, there is no such actual organization, but the students who have had enough musical training to warrant their position in a worthwhile orchestra are given one credit for each concert they perform as members of the Bellingham Little Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Mr. Smith. Credit Given This year two hours' credit per quarter is given the student who takes lessons individually from approved instructors of piano, violin, 'cello, voice, organ and band or orchestral instruments. Next year, however, only one credit per quarter will be given for such work. Variety Offered Courses ranging from beginning sight singing to advanced conducting are listed in the annual catalog DRAMATIC PRODUCER SPEAKS ON THEATER Robinson's Plays Are Well Known to People of America The development of the drama in Ireland and the, growth of Ireland's famous .national theater, was the theme of the special address given here this morning in assembly by Mr. Lennox Robinson, director of the Abbey Theater, Dublin.

She claims modern art is still searching for ideas which they are not able to find at present. She realized this when she was in Paris and visited the modern art exhibition there. Appears In Court The most thrilling experience of. her singing career was when she was ordered by the king of Eng to appear at Buckingham palace. This was in 1920, when the ban on professional artists was raised. "I do not care ror Jazz," Miss Burnada stated, "and I believe it is dying away. The-only good quality it' has is rhythm but sometimes this also is ruined." She believes that the public is constantly demanding better music. First Appearance Miss Burnada was born on the Isle of Mauritius, of f the southeast coast of Africa^ The first time she ever appeared as a singer it was to take the place of her teacher at the Gallo-Roman theater. She admits she was very fr^hten^ her first of such enormous size. At her concert last Tuesday she was accompanied by Dorothy Mile-son, piano, and Mildred Johnson, 'cellist.

And I suppose, in the killing off process, the bullets and bombs and gas and cannon balls would have lots of fun dodging him and. his!

This action was decided upon at the regular meeting of the Board, Wednesday, Jan. Is. Sivert Skotheim, chairman of an investigation committee, reported at the Wednesday meeting on the advisability of changing the requirements for eligibility in obtaining an athletic sweater award so that they would be consistent with the participation requirements as set by the State Normal Trustee's Board last spring. Ruling Differs The requirements as outlined in Article 3 Section 6 of the by-laws of the Students' Association constitution of this school are: "That no individual shall receive an award who has not completed at least twelve hours of satisfactory work in the institution in the quarter in which he has earned his sweater. That the student shall turn out for each respective activity during the entire season unless excused by the coach for some legitimate reason." The ruling of the trustees is that only ten hours of satisfactory work are to be required in order to participate. •'•'•'•'* Change Proposed' . r Skotheim, after conferring with Coach S. E. Carver and President C. H. Fisher on the subject, suggested that a change, be made in the constitution. The Board of Control favored the report and passed a motion tnat Skotheim's suggested be presented to the student association as a whole, for a vote at some future date.

Smith, director. This change was made due to conflicting dates. As some of the members are from the Seattle Symphony, it was impossible to have it a week from the original date because Seattle will hold its symphony concert at that time. The program for the event is as follows: Symphony in B minor, Schubert; overture, "Midsummer Night's Dream," Mendelssohn; Ballet Suite, Gluck; Intermezzo from "Naive," Delibes; Polonaise from " B o r i s Godounof," Moussorgsky; Entr'acte from "Rosemunde," Schubert; Aragonaise from "Le-Cid," Massenet.

The program committee, Marjorie Morris and Dorothy Fiala, and refreshment committee, June Jevning and Jean McMillan. Plans Approved "Mr. Hoppe, our faculty adviser, is very much in favor of the plans for the party," says Miss Bennerstrom, "and I believe enthusiasm should be found among the class more than is shown concerning usual class functions." Sophomores who were freshmen last quarter will be given tickets to the party because no party was held last quarter. WOMEN ASSEMBLE WITH PURPOSE OF FORMING PEP CLUB Girls Given Opportunity to Sign on Bulletin Board for Membership to Club CLUB ADVISERS CHOSEN (Editorial Comment; See Page 2) With the purpose of creating pep and stimulating school spirit, a group of girls have been meeting to organize a Pep Club.

Compositions of Beethoven, Liszt, Grieg, Bach, and some of the moderns, are analyzed and explained. The student in Music Appreciation learns to understand good music. Not only is he taught to know good music when he hears it but to discern which is good and which poor. Is there a school orchestra? According to Mr. Smith, there is no such actual organization, but the students who have had enough musical training to warrant their position in a worthwhile orchestra are given one credit for each concert they perform as members of the Bellingham Little Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Mr. Smith. Credit Given This year two hours' credit per quarter is given the student who takes lessons individually from approved instructors of piano, violin, 'cello, voice, organ and band or orchestral instruments.
