Our opinion is that anyone who can carry on even sparsely intelligent conversation this week ts absolutely a genips. p a r s is strangely littered with Psychology, history, essays, and poetry. And the tests, my dear —they are made in such a way as to bring out the exact but perhaps em-harrassing amount of mentality you've hidden away Oh, well! •".""" W.S.N.S. BEGINS MONDAY, MORNING OF 28" Sociology, Industrial "Arts, and Typing Will Not Meet First Day F A C U L T Y D E A N R E T U R NS Men s Club Sponsors A ction Against Year- Book Fees Each Year Those persons who missed seeing "Liiiom'':. , may indeed consider themselves unfortunate. The casting was excellent and the acting so well done. that it surprised many. And as for the story—it left a funny feeling in the pit of the abdomen and an unsuppressable desire to whistle, "Look out, here comes the d Police!" Imagine an amateur production sporting a theme song. W.S.N.S.— The saddest words Of peri or tongue Are, "Remember, dear— You're still quite young". : —W.S.N.S.- ....This anti-hoard drive makes us chortle in suppressed glee. Those who have no money to speak of are preaching the crime of hoarding it, and those who have a lot of money (if there are such rare creatures left. We wonder—because we forgot our lunch and tried several prospects) are quietly laying it away in grandpa's striped sock until' better times approach. Is'nt it futile? ——W.S.N.S. Dame fashion demands that Milady wear little veils to cover her comely features... Well venture to say that it will be difficult for her to remain coy' and blow her nose at the same time. — W.S.N.S. Roll on, thou heartless, cold examinations, roll- Ten thousand, students curse o'er thee in vain! And when they gel the grades and take the toll— It reads from left to right—"She goes insane!" ——W.S.N.S. — Someone suggested that we should take up a bit of good old free verse in this day and age when no one ever pays for anything anyway. Not a bad idea—eh, what? W.S.N.S. ....You read the article about the lad who was kidnapped ten years ago by group of people who spoke and wrote a strange language, didn't you? Right out of our own little mind we figured—if the kidnappers involved wore racoon coats, it's a cinch, they were a bunch of ex-col-iegians whose papas had neglected to extend ye monthly check. (Any member of a college faculty can verify the part about the strange writing and speaking!) ——W.S.N;S.—-— Ah! Will wonders never cease? America's women have adopted the garb of poor Gnandi for lingerie purposes! Everything, even the grotesque safety pin as a clasp, has been taken literally from the patient goat herd-erfe costume. Perhaps itffcs a good thing that our friend, Al .Capone, is at leisure in the sanctity of the pen. At least he's safe from the ever prying, ever investigating American female public! •;•;'•'!,'——W.S.N.S.-4— Lives of Campbells oft remind us InpurjJ^pnnalonthehill They deport *md leave behind them , .

Friday, March 18, the annual spring vacation enjoyed by the Normal school, will extend until Monday morning, March 28, at 8 a. m., at,which time classes and registration will resume. There have been no changes over the printed matter as it appears in the spring schedule and those students registered will report to their classes on Monday in regular order with the following exceptions: Sociology 4 at 8 o'clock, industrial arts 60c at 10 o'clock, and typing at 8 o'clock, will not meet on Monday! Absences are to be reported from the first day the class meets. Students should attend classes as soon as they have determined upon their schedules, excepting, where it is necessary to meet definite appointments with advisers. Classes Meet Temporarily The following classes will meet temporarily on Monday as here indicated instead of in their regular places of meeting as indicated in the schedule: T. T. 7a with Pragst at 9 o'clock in room 239; political science 103 with Cummins at 9 in the auditorium; history 60c with Cummins at 1 o'clock in room 119; history 60a with Cummins" in room 120; T.

New students will register on Monday, March 28, entering freshmen reporting directly to room 120 and transfer students reporting to Dean Bever's office. Those students who have already registered and made arrangements to pay their fees on Monday, March 28, are warned not to omit to do so as they will otherwise be required to pay a dollar a day for each day they are late. Students who have changes to make in their programs are requested to delay doing so until Wednesday, March 30. Faculty Members Return Among those of the faculty who will return for the spring quarter are: President C. H. Fisher, who is expected back from his research studies in the East some time during the next week; Miss Adele M. Jones, dean of women, who has been on a trip in the East and who is expected back some time early next week, and Dean James Bever, who has been studying at the University of Arizona and who will return early in the quarter to resume ' his advisory duties and his class in sociology. Miss Nora B. Cummins, who has been acting dean during the winter quarter, will again take up her classes in political science, contemporary European history and grade school history for the spring quarter. After sponsoring the .posting of a petition with the hopes of amending the present condition of compulsory purchasing of the school's annual yearbook, "The Klipsun," the Men's Club will submit the proposal to the Student Body for signing' in the near future. Immediate action was voted for in the recent club meeting, with the hopes that the fee of $3 couid be abolished from the tuition of spring quarter. Numerous suggestions were made concerning the future buying of the yearbook, but it was decided to submit the matter before the whole Student Body. It was stressed in the meeting by Roy Abbott, president, the importance of complete co-operation in the paying of the quarterly dues. Jimmie Stoddard read the financial report of the club and Aubrey Lundberg, dance chairman, gave a report showing: that the club had failed to raise money enough to pay expenses on the last dance. _ _ < > _ W.

Delegates from colleges and universities throughout the country will attend the sessions. To Visit Schools The three delegates will have plenty of time on the drive down South to visit various schools and colleges on their way down.

The representatives will send an interesting account of their first few days' experiences for the next issue of The Viking, which will come out April 8. They will keep this paper informed of their activities and impressions until their return to school about the thirteenth of April. •—o — Clowns and carrousels will prevail at the spring mixer, which will feature a circus idea. This all-school social affair, of which Vaughn Howell is general chairman, will be a sport dance neic Aprn 1 in the big gymnasium.

Decorations Planned Louise Armstrong, who has charge of decorating the gymnasium, is assisted by Lillian Bennerstrom, Joyce PfueUer, Roy Hollingsworth, Robert Diehl, Howard Wasley, Stewart Blythe, Dorothy Fiala and James Thompson. As a circus is not much fun without "eats," Helen Richardson and Dorothy Christianson will plan refreshments for the crowd. Dorothy Knuppenberg is in charge of the entertainment, while Jeaneva Moore has charge of the invitations and is the faculty hostess. Students Guarded So that the little "children"' will not be trampled underfoot by the elephants, it has been arranged for many adult members to be present.

Kochanski was born in the same country that gave Chopin and Pad-erewski to the world. He has studied in many of the most noted music conservatories throughout the world and has given many concerts in France, Germany, Russia, Spain and Egypt. Kochanski came to Bellingham under the auspices of the Women's Music Club and the Bellingham State Normal School, as a feature of the musical artists course.

After graduating from Normal, Patey taught school near Dillingham, Alaska. He spent his vacations in various ways to go on with his education. Two Informals and Numerous Parties Scheduled COLIN CAMPBELL HAS HAPPY MEMORIES OF SCHOOL YEAR (By Debby Altose) How often have we heard, the sentence, "Parting is such sweet sorrow".. Shakespeare originated it in one of his plays and it lives till this this day as it is such a characteristic remark. It comes home to us with the knowledge that Colin Campbell, president of the Student Body Association, has resigned his position previous to completion of his term of office and is to leave the Normal after this quarter. Colin was yell leader last year, and is well known to all of us. Memories Happy Ones He hits attended this institution two years and to him the acquaintances and experiences he has encountered here will remain as some of the happiest ones of his life. He is going to work Spring and Summer, and. then enter the University of Washington as a junior next Fall in the: school of Business Administration. .. •" • ~.' "'" •' •'•'•" -•••.•" • r Likes New System Colin says that he believes the hew election system which the students recently adopted [to be very good. It witt stimulate an interest in school elections and school life which, he thinks, has been lacking these last few years. "Although," he said, "I believe this wiWiri^pve rapidly as the school is now being'changed to a three-year mstitultioh+'^t: He wishes to express his appreciation of the cooperation given him during his administration... He has enjoyed, his 'tioptk'h^ey^^nitich and is "sorry to leave the old-place, all right." ''.^''M^vwfr'Z/-'- Today is his last day at Normal, arid as we wislf kith "Q^ Social functions for the Spring quarter promise to be numerous and gay.

Faculty Critic Reviews Drama Club Presentation of "Liiiom » By Miss Lucy Kangley In its production last Thursday and Friday of "Liiiom," by Ferenc Molnar, the Drama Club has set a high standard for itself. Bellingham audiences have come to expect something outstanding in the plays directed by Mr. Hoppe, and it is to his great credit that he never disappoints them. "Liiiom" is not an easy play to produce. It is so full of meanings that, if it is not intelligently perceived and that perception emphasized in the performance, it can become quite meaningless. The character of Liiiom, about whom the play centers; is an instance of this. The actor must see in Liiiom something other than the bully and braggart which a surface interpretation of his lines would suggest. Liiiom is a blundering child lost in a chaotic world. Untamed, full of the vital forces that are the source at once of all that' is creative and all that is destructive in life, he fascinates the people with whom he comes into contact. Yet his strength is deceptive, his boasts a shouting down of disturbing fears, his abuse of the yielding Julie a perverse and inverted kind; of tenderness. He would be strong before her, shine before her, protect her^ but he cannot. Life is stronger than he; and he cannot even come to terms with it. " Therefore he avenges himself upon life by hurting Julie, the thing he loves most. Preston W ^ h t caugbjfc ^ of t t e rcte^ Liiiom the elemental creature Molnar intended him to be. The change' at the close of the first: act from the bully to the rough-spoken, only half articulate lover, full of a tenderness that is as unexplainable to himself as was his former anger, was skilfully made. Dorothy Fiala is to be commended for the beautiful restraint with which she played the difficult role of Julie. The part could easily be sentimentalized. Goodness always risks being made a negative thing. With Julie, as portrayed by Miss Fiala, it is a positive force, the manifestation of hidden powers. In only one scene, the death of Liiiom, is she disappointing. The emotional effect fell flat. Perhaps, the fault is Molnar's. The portrayal of ain emotion kept too sharply in check, of a state of mind allowed almost no objective expression, is perhaps fitter material for the novel than the drama. While.all the roles were capably taken, the piece of acting done by Wihiam Button in the part of Fis-cur was outstanding. He seemed so much an embodiment of evil, a kind of nameless, unclean evil, that his every_ motion suggested something sinister.' ;••'.:' Marie and Wolf, whom Molnar comes perhaps too perilously close to making "comic l o v e - i n the good old melodrama, sense, were yrell, portrayied by Martha Shudshift and Anthony Gross. They are ob-vibusly used as a contrast to Liiiom and Julie. Wolf, whpse name suggests that Molnar was depending upon the psychological fact of the ^assj^te;: .jM> •jdmjpeltes, V'~lk>-- a l m o s t sheeplike person. To persons of his H. V.

Miss Nora B. Cummins, who has been acting dean during the winter quarter, will again take up her classes in political science, contemporary European history and grade school history for the spring quarter. After sponsoring the .posting of a petition with the hopes of amending the present condition of compulsory purchasing of the school's annual yearbook, "The Klipsun," the Men's Club will submit the proposal to the Student Body for signing' in the near future. Immediate action was voted for in the recent club meeting, with the hopes that the fee of $3 couid be abolished from the tuition of spring quarter. Numerous suggestions were made concerning the future buying of the yearbook, but it was decided to submit the matter before the whole Student Body. It was stressed in the meeting by Roy Abbott, president, the importance of complete co-operation in the paying of the quarterly dues. Jimmie Stoddard read the financial report of the club and Aubrey Lundberg, dance chairman, gave a report showing: that the club had failed to raise money enough to pay expenses on the last dance. _ _ < > _ W.

Kochanski was born in the same country that gave Chopin and Pad-erewski to the world. He has studied in many of the most noted music conservatories throughout the world and has given many concerts in France, Germany, Russia, Spain and Egypt. Kochanski came to Bellingham under the auspices of the Women's Music Club and the Bellingham State Normal School, as a feature of the musical artists course.

It comes home to us with the knowledge that Colin Campbell, president of the Student Body Association, has resigned his position previous to completion of his term of office and is to leave the Normal after this quarter. Colin was yell leader last year, and is well known to all of us.

Faculty Critic Reviews Drama Club Presentation of "Liiiom » By Miss Lucy Kangley In its production last Thursday and Friday of "Liiiom," by Ferenc Molnar, the Drama Club has set a high standard for itself. Bellingham audiences have come to expect something outstanding in the plays directed by Mr. Hoppe, and it is to his great credit that he never disappoints them. "Liiiom" is not an easy play to produce. It is so full of meanings that, if it is not intelligently perceived and that perception emphasized in the performance, it can become quite meaningless. The character of Liiiom, about whom the play centers; is an instance of this. The actor must see in Liiiom something other than the bully and braggart which a surface interpretation of his lines would suggest. Liiiom is a blundering child lost in a chaotic world. Untamed, full of the vital forces that are the source at once of all that' is creative and all that is destructive in life, he fascinates the people with whom he comes into contact. Yet his strength is deceptive, his boasts a shouting down of disturbing fears, his abuse of the yielding Julie a perverse and inverted kind; of tenderness. He would be strong before her, shine before her, protect her^ but he cannot. Life is stronger than he; and he cannot even come to terms with it. " Therefore he avenges himself upon life by hurting Julie, the thing he loves most. Preston W ^ h t caugbjfc ^ of t t e rcte^ Liiiom the elemental creature Molnar intended him to be. The change' at the close of the first: act from the bully to the rough-spoken, only half articulate lover, full of a tenderness that is as unexplainable to himself as was his former anger, was skilfully made. Dorothy Fiala is to be commended for the beautiful restraint with which she played the difficult role of Julie. The part could easily be sentimentalized. Goodness always risks being made a negative thing. With Julie, as portrayed by Miss Fiala, it is a positive force, the manifestation of hidden powers. In only one scene, the death of Liiiom, is she disappointing. The emotional effect fell flat. Perhaps, the fault is Molnar's. The portrayal of ain emotion kept too sharply in check, of a state of mind allowed almost no objective expression, is perhaps fitter material for the novel than the drama. While.all the roles were capably taken, the piece of acting done by Wihiam Button in the part of Fis-cur was outstanding. He seemed so much an embodiment of evil, a kind of nameless, unclean evil, that his every_ motion suggested something sinister.' ;••'.:' Marie and Wolf, whom Molnar comes perhaps too perilously close to making "comic l o v e - i n the good old melodrama, sense, were yrell, portrayied by Martha Shudshift and Anthony Gross. They are ob-vibusly used as a contrast to Liiiom and Julie. Wolf, whpse name suggests that Molnar was depending upon the psychological fact of the ^assj^te;: .jM> •jdmjpeltes, V'~lk>-- a l m o s t sheeplike person. To persons of his H. V.
