mom witL GO IWto OPERATION TOMORROW
~^Jtfany hands make light work" is the old
t^inese proverb that the lounge redecoration
committee has chosen as its motto. Bill Rad-cjiffe,^
chairman, reported Thursday that be­tween
thirty and forty student workers will be
needed for the work beginning tomorrow, April
23. '
:-uHe said that with that number of volunteers
everyone won't have to work all the time. Some
vvill work for an hour and then knock off for a
while. Radcliffe stressed the fact that women
will be working for the same wages as men, prob-aSiy
a cup,of coffee and two doughnuts, or two
cups of coffee and one doughnut. Another reason
for the large number of workers was to make the
lounge rejuvenation more of a social affair and
not just a dreary job.
Seventy dollars worth of paint and fifty dol­lars
worth of plywood have been ordered for the
improvements and changes which will include
repainting the walls and adding a molding around
the windows, doors, and casings. When the mold­ing
is put on, Nordic and Dutch designs will be
stenciled on it.
Bill wished to have plenty of volunteers, and
said, "It's our lounge, so come on, let's fix it up!"
Other members of the redecoration committee
are: Lois French, Phil Hansen, Bob Sarvis, Hugh
Slagle, and John Graham.

College Broadcast Increased,
Brewster Forsees Expansion
Radio speech and radio broadcasting by WWC under the direc­tion
of Lawrence Brewster has changed KVOS broadcast time to
Tuesday at 9:45 p. m. and Saturday at 8:45 p. m. The previous
program time was Friday at 4:00 p. m.
"Programs on Tuesday evenings are of varied nature," Brewster
stated. "We have had interviews with members of the faculty in
regard to their respective fields of work. Also, the music depart-ment,
both vocal and instrumen­tal,
has contributed its talent."
He theft went on to say that
plays have been a part of the broad-easts
too, with students from the
radio class and oral interpretation
class taking part. Brewster him­self
writes the script for the quiz
program "Do You Know," consist­ing
of ten questions, based on an
idea or theme. Listeners are en­couraged
to try their ability at
home. The second half of the pro­gram
is devoted to discussion of the
correct answers.
Saturday is the regular weekly

Dr. Douglas Kelley,
Psychiatrist,
On Program Tues.
Psychiatry has changed its atti­tude
greatly regarding both indi­viduals
and groups, as a result of
the war. This is the idea expressed
by Dr. Douglas Kelley, noted psy­chiatrist
and professor at Wake For­est
college, who will speak here next
Friday, April 29.
During the war Dr. Kelley served
as a lieutenant colonel in the army
medical corps. He was chief con­sulting
psychologist and acting con­sulting
psychiatrist of the European
theater before his appointment as
psychiatrist to the Nuremburg jaU.
It was in this capacity that he ex­amined
the minds of leading Ger­man
war criminals, and as a result
of his findings wrote the book "22
Cells in Nuremburg."
The California-born psychiatrist
received his B. A. from the Univer­sity
of California, and four years
later earned his medical degree
there. His background includes
work in the university hospital, fol­lowed
by a \ period in New York
where he practiced at the State
Psychiatric Institute and Hospital,
and the New, York Neurological Inr
stitute. In addition, Dr. Kelley was a
research fellow in neurology at Co­lumbia
university, where in 1841 he
received the i doctorate in medical
science.

„ Janet Harris, sponsored^ by the
WWC Norsemen, will enter the an­nual

Cornerstone to
Be Laid Soon
A "double feature" cornerstone
laying • program will be held on the
WWC campus May 20. The 10 a. m.
event will include two complete
ceremonies within an hour, it was
announced by Dr. Haggard this
week.
The first feature, with Dr. Hag­gard
presiding, will take place out­side
the new Arts building just
south of the campus school. A mem­ber
of the state legislature, a college
trustee, and the building's archi­tect
will be among the honored dig­nitaries.
Gus Pagels will represent
the student body.
The second program will be held
in front of the Auditorium and Mu­sic
building, being constructed across
High street from the main campus.
Again guests will include a legisla­tor,
a trustee and an architect, with
Fred DeBruler representing the stu­dent
body. Band music will herald
the beginning of the first program
with the choir held in reserve to
start the second. ^
No information has been released
about the stone's contents. The items
will probably include a history o!
the building, the cost, and some
memento of the fiftieth anniversary
year. The situation Is unique not
only because of its "double header"
nature, but also because it falls on
the fiftieth anniversary year of the
college.

Candidates on
Final Ballot
"Nominations for ASB presi­dent
for the 1949-50 school year
have taken an unprecedented
turn," election chairman Fred
De Bruler informed the Board
of Control Wednesday. "Since
only three men, John Sigurdson,"
Art Runestrand, and Bill Jones;
were nominated, their names
will not appear on the primary
ballot," DeBruler continued. He"
explained that the purpose of
the primary elections is to nar­row
the field down to three can­didates,
and that the names of.
the 4hree nominees would auto­matically
be moved up to the gen­eral
ballot in the present case. Sev­eral
presidential nominees were
eliminated because they have not
been in attendance at WWC for the
required four quarters, he added.
NOMINATIONS GIVEN
DeBruler reported that the nom­inations
for other ASB offices are
as follows: vice-president, Phyllis
Armstrong, Ann Pearson, John Pill,
Roger Hubb, and Loren Rankin;
four-quarter man or woman, Mary
Pagels, Phyllis Armstrong, Ed Hick-enbottom,

Samuelson, and Rosalie Stoerchli.
The newly-formed Thespian club
submitted a request for use of the
student lounge, at board expense, for
a club meeting the evening of Tues­day,
April 26. The board decided
that it could not finance club meet­ings
in the lounge, but that the club
could meet there at its own expense
if desired.
Ten dollars and ninety-one cents
was appropriated to pay WWC's half
of the fire insurance on Kulshan
cabin, which is on the slope of
Mount Baker. The Mount Baker
Hiking club, joint owner of the
cabin, will furnish an equal amount.
Board members suggested that the
cabin's location and availability.be
publicized so that students will be­come
aware of this facility.
