& > • With the Editor No question about it, the propaganda in this war is getting more and more subtle all the time. F'rinstance take this new ballad, 'The Last Time 1 Saw Paris." It's a catchy tune, but the jirords and even music are nothing more than pure propaganda. Instead of spreading horror stories as they did in the last European engagement, they print nostalgic laments over the gay state of the French capital, when last we saw it, supposedly before the German occupation. Not that over half the school has ever been to Paris, but we immediately have a kindred feeling with the person singing, who in turn has probably never been east of Hoboken.

This quarter's CAA students are ready for their ground school finals. They will be taken this Friday evening, covering civil air regulations, meteorology, and navigation. .

They will arise about 4 o'clock, and, after a hot cup of chocolate in the Blue room, will be on their way, singing through the halls to wake the unfortunate freshmen who must stay at home. They will take a certain route, which will include stops at some of the faculty homes. On returning to the dorm about 7:30 a. m. they will be served breakfast by the freshmen girls. There will also be a short program and Santa will have a small gift for each girl. Each gift will be accompanied by a verse about the girl.

Haggard Discusses College Budget In order to explain the Western Washington college budget for 1941- 42, President W. W. Haggard went to Olympia last Tuesday evening. Wednesday President Haggard and heads of other state institutions were present at a hearing before Governor Clarence D. Martin and officials of the State Finance department. Such hearings take place regularly in the state in order to give the heads of the various state institutions an opportunity to present their case before the state budget is prepared. Before leaving Dr. Haggard expressed the hope that next year's WWC budget might remain intact. Committee Dines With Editor Monday evening the faculty committee on publications entertained Al Biggs, WWCollegian editor, and three of his associates at an informal dinner in the Edens Hall Club room. Miss Nora B. Ctammins, committee chairman; Dr. Arthur G. Hicks, Dr. Paul D. Woodring, and Mrs. Ruth Burnet represented the faculty. Eric Phillips, associate editor; Irene Fyhn, news editor; Charles Kilbourne, feature and Navigator editor, and Biggs, represented the students and the Collegian. Newspaper and editorial* policy were discussed during the course of the evening. ..'.'., ^ HOME EC TEACHING OFFERED Students interested in home economics may now prepare for a teaching field in that department although it isn't mentionedin the general catalogue, stated Dr. Merle S. Kuder, registrar, this Week, Further information may be obtained from the Registrar's office, the Home Economics department or Miss Lmta Countryman. ROBINSON RECEIVES POSITION -Phyllis Robinson, WWC student, has just accepted a teaching position in Malaga, Wash., according to Miss Elizabeth Hopper, director of the Appointment bureau. Miss Robinson will teach tiie first grade and have charge of physical education for the upper grade girls. Her teaching duties begin January 1. Activities Discussed By Premies Meeting to review the various WWC clubs' fall activities, club presidents discussed the size, attendance, and special activities of their clubs at the last ICC meeting. It was found that most of WWCs clubs are active, though small, and that the meetings are well attended. An Inter-club rally to which new and non-participating students will be invited, will be held early in the winter quarter. This decision was reached by the Inter-club .council at its meeting last Thursday in room aos. Various, members of the club expressed the belief that a rally in which non-participants were made f amUiars^with-clubs-and-club-activ1*•- ities would do more to promote the various clubs of WWC than the usual rally attended only by club leaders. A committee was appointed and the preliminary work for the rally was begun. Kuder To Publicize WWC Activities In an attempt to publicize WWC, Dr. Merle Kuder, registrar, has asked Charles Kilbourne, feature editor of the Collegian staff and editor of the 1940 Navigator, to gather material and edit a booklet which would list and illustrate auricular and extra-curricular activities. Kilbourne reports, "This edition will be outstanding for its many illustrations." This publication, similar in size to the Navigator, will include courses of study offered at WWC, vocations, avocations, and other material of interest to a prospective freshman. When completed, the book will be* sent to all high school seniors* and to anyone else desiring information about the college. The Navigator will be distributed as in former years to all students registering at WWC. Winter Conferences Call Bond South Dr. E. A. Bond, WWC mathematics instructor, will leave at the end of this quarter for Baton Rouge, Louisiana, where he will attend a meeting of the National Council of Mathematics teachers. Dr. Bond is chairman of the Arithmetic Committee of the West coast. The National council is completing work on a book, "Application of Mathematics in Everyday Life." . While in Baton Rouge, he will attend the New Year's Sugar bowl football game between Texas A and M and Fordham university. Dr. Bond will not be teaching winter quarter. TAYLOR WILL SPEAK TONIGHT AT HIGH Dr. George E. Taylor, head of the Oriental Studies department of the University of Washington,'will speak at the meeting of the American Association of University Women to be held in the study hall of the Bel-lingham high school, tonight at 8 p. m. Dr. Taylor, former foreign correspondent for the Manchester Guardian, will speak on some aspect of the Oriental situation. Pictured above is the newly organized WWC Symphony orchestra which appeared in its initial concert last Tuesday evening in the College auditorium. The orchestra is composed of 50 members, 30 of whom are students at WWC. The remainder are. public school music superintendents from Whatcom and Skagit counties and local musicians. WWC Opens 1940 Concert Season Before Appreciative Audience Western Washington college can well be proud of its symphony orchestra. The orchestra should not be proud of Western Washington college. In the symphony concert Tuesday night, the orchestra played for a mere sprinkling of students and a majority o f town people. They weren't perfect, but they were willing and played some very fine music. The program opened with "Euryanthe Overture" (Weber) which the orchestra, after a shaky start, performed with distinction. Second was one of Director Don Bushell's favorites: "Siegfried idyll" by Wagner. This, mechanically, did not measure up to the other selections, but by no means was it bad. Wagner's music is extremely difficult, and it is to the credit of the director that he had nerve and confidence enough in his orchestra to attempt it. -.,-The. third selection -featured Dr.: Arthur Hicks in a piano solo, and the piece naturally was dominated by the artistry of Dr. Hicks. However great his performance, it did not measure up to some of his concertos in the past five years. The orchestra wound up on the Polvetzian Dances (Borodin). They had a rollicking time with the sprightly piece and finished all driving. Despite minor difficulties, such as nose bleeds in the bassoon section, WWCs symphony orchestra debut was definitely a success. —AB. Scholarship Society Schusskens Outride Snowstorm Despite a baby snow storm, the 15 Schusskens who rode the bus to Mount Baker last Sunday had a good time, according to John Nelson, club president. Starting at 7:30 a. m. from the Dorm and returning at 7 o'clock that night, the skiers put in a hard day. Those who made the trip were: Frances McCaddon, Ed Lowery, John Nelson, Pat Machemer, Bob Quinby, Lois Hilby, Betty Lee Moore, Jim Goodrich, Mat Wheeler, Lillian Cure, Betty Ericsson, Francis Callihan, Steve Gierman, Pat • • • -r- Anderson, and Miss Virginia Hawke I m t l d t e S I y r OS of the PE department. Fee Payment Date Extended Day In order to facilitate payment of registration fees, the Business office has extended the date of payment from Monday, January 6, through Tuesday, January 7. The late registration fee of $1 will be charged aU students registering after January 7. • '•' • Registrar Merle S. Kuder said that students, who for some unavoidable reason have failed to register, will; be given a chance to do so today and Monday. Changes of program will be made Monday, December 16, and Tuesday, December 17. BOLSTER HOME SCENE OF DRAMA PARTY At the home of Rosemary Bolster, the Drama club party was held last Friday night. Upon arriving, the guests were led into a darkened room and given the end of a string which they followed to find the other end. When they arrived at the other end, there was a present for each guest. After this many other games were played. And last of all everyone joined in on a "jam session." Those attending were: Mr. and Mrs. Ramon T- George, Paul Glenn, Virginia Rhoher, Pat Pelegren, Clayton Ross, Margaret Rabb, Ed Olson, Ruth Sherman, Clark Brown, Doris Stevenson, and Lorraine Montgomery. NO REC—WHAT, AGAIN! Along with closed week-end and the suspending of other recreational activities, there will be no mixed Rec hour for the rest of. the fall quarter. These will be continude at the beginning of winter quarter in January. . As a reward for high scholastic standing, six new members were initiated into the Scholarshp so-city last Friday evening at a banquet in the Leopold hotel.

Ski conditions are good, chains are advised from Glacier. Novel Guild Presentation Introduced By Chichester With Dickens' Play By BUI Hatch Opening a novel production by the Bellingham Theater guild Wednesday evening, G. B. Chichester made his way down the aisle to the right of the opening nighters, took up his position before an improvised fireplace in front of the regular stage, and with perfect English accent and mannerism, began to tell the story of Charles Dickens' "The Cricket on the Hearth". As the curtain opens on this Gilmore Brown adaptation of the charming little story, the audience is treated to the sight of Hazel Seamen; as the very young Dot Perrybingle, fluttering about the room in anticipation of the arrival of her husband, her middle-aged, mail-carrier husband.'.With Jonnv Perrybingle, when he does arrive, is a very old, very deaf gentleman, who only sits by the fire and reads. As the slow witted, plodding, but well meaning John Perrybingle, Melvin Erickson turns in a highly commendable performance. As Tilly Blowboy, the teen-age orphan whom Dot and John have taken into their home to tend their newly arrived baby, Jean Scott gives a laughable, yet realistic performance. As the story unfolds, we learn that Mr. Tackleton, the rich toymaker^* case-hardened, thoroughly hateful old rascal, is about to take ta marriage May Fielding, daughter of a proud, but financially embarrassed fainfly. May, played by Patricia [Pelegren, WW^ friend of Dot Perrybingle, and of the blind girl, Bertha Rummer, played by Caroline Kuhn, another WWC student. Caleb Pluinmer, the Mred^yj-A maker of Mr. Tackleton, is a spare, toll-worn Uttle man whose single Ambition is to keep his daughter happy. His attempt to do so is pitiable^ and her rude awakening to their true station in life is a high pohit>in the play. In this scene Norman R. Burchette, as Caleb, and Miss Kolui (Continued on Page Three) y " ?n W0. JM^j^^S^^MS^SttlSS^^S^^^^^M^X

Haggard Discusses College Budget In order to explain the Western Washington college budget for 1941- 42, President W. W. Haggard went to Olympia last Tuesday evening. Wednesday President Haggard and heads of other state institutions were present at a hearing before Governor Clarence D. Martin and officials of the State Finance department. Such hearings take place regularly in the state in order to give the heads of the various state institutions an opportunity to present their case before the state budget is prepared. Before leaving Dr. Haggard expressed the hope that next year's WWC budget might remain intact. Committee Dines With Editor Monday evening the faculty committee on publications entertained Al Biggs, WWCollegian editor, and three of his associates at an informal dinner in the Edens Hall Club room. Miss Nora B. Ctammins, committee chairman; Dr. Arthur G. Hicks, Dr. Paul D. Woodring, and Mrs. Ruth Burnet represented the faculty. Eric Phillips, associate editor; Irene Fyhn, news editor; Charles Kilbourne, feature and Navigator editor, and Biggs, represented the students and the Collegian. Newspaper and editorial* policy were discussed during the course of the evening. ..'.'., ^ HOME EC TEACHING OFFERED Students interested in home economics may now prepare for a teaching field in that department although it isn't mentionedin the general catalogue, stated Dr. Merle S. Kuder, registrar, this Week, Further information may be obtained from the Registrar's office, the Home Economics department or Miss Lmta Countryman.

Miss Robinson will teach tiie first grade and have charge of physical education for the upper grade girls. Her teaching duties begin January 1. Activities Discussed By Premies Meeting to review the various WWC clubs' fall activities, club presidents discussed the size, attendance, and special activities of their clubs at the last ICC meeting. It was found that most of WWCs clubs are active, though small, and that the meetings are well attended. An Inter-club rally to which new and non-participating students will be invited, will be held early in the winter quarter. This decision was reached by the Inter-club .council at its meeting last Thursday in room aos. Various, members of the club expressed the belief that a rally in which non-participants were made f amUiars^with-clubs-and-club-activ1*•- ities would do more to promote the various clubs of WWC than the usual rally attended only by club leaders. A committee was appointed and the preliminary work for the rally was begun. Kuder To Publicize WWC Activities In an attempt to publicize WWC, Dr. Merle Kuder, registrar, has asked Charles Kilbourne, feature editor of the Collegian staff and editor of the 1940 Navigator, to gather material and edit a booklet which would list and illustrate auricular and extra-curricular activities. Kilbourne reports, "This edition will be outstanding for its many illustrations." This publication, similar in size to the Navigator, will include courses of study offered at WWC, vocations, avocations, and other material of interest to a prospective freshman. When completed, the book will be* sent to all high school seniors* and to anyone else desiring information about the college. The Navigator will be distributed as in former years to all students registering at WWC. Winter Conferences Call Bond South Dr. E. A. Bond, WWC mathematics instructor, will leave at the end of this quarter for Baton Rouge, Louisiana, where he will attend a meeting of the National Council of Mathematics teachers. Dr. Bond is chairman of the Arithmetic Committee of the West coast. The National council is completing work on a book, "Application of Mathematics in Everyday Life." . While in Baton Rouge, he will attend the New Year's Sugar bowl football game between Texas A and M and Fordham university. Dr. Bond will not be teaching winter quarter.

Pictured above is the newly organized WWC Symphony orchestra which appeared in its initial concert last Tuesday evening in the College auditorium. The orchestra is composed of 50 members, 30 of whom are students at WWC. The remainder are. public school music superintendents from Whatcom and Skagit counties and local musicians. WWC Opens 1940 Concert Season Before Appreciative Audience Western Washington college can well be proud of its symphony orchestra. The orchestra should not be proud of Western Washington college. In the symphony concert Tuesday night, the orchestra played for a mere sprinkling of students and a majority o f town people. They weren't perfect, but they were willing and played some very fine music. The program opened with "Euryanthe Overture" (Weber) which the orchestra, after a shaky start, performed with distinction. Second was one of Director Don Bushell's favorites: "Siegfried idyll" by Wagner. This, mechanically, did not measure up to the other selections, but by no means was it bad. Wagner's music is extremely difficult, and it is to the credit of the director that he had nerve and confidence enough in his orchestra to attempt it. -.,-The. third selection -featured Dr.: Arthur Hicks in a piano solo, and the piece naturally was dominated by the artistry of Dr. Hicks. However great his performance, it did not measure up to some of his concertos in the past five years. The orchestra wound up on the Polvetzian Dances (Borodin). They had a rollicking time with the sprightly piece and finished all driving. Despite minor difficulties, such as nose bleeds in the bassoon section, WWCs symphony orchestra debut was definitely a success. —AB. Scholarship Society Schusskens Outride Snowstorm Despite a baby snow storm, the 15 Schusskens who rode the bus to Mount Baker last Sunday had a good time, according to John Nelson, club president.

Novel Guild Presentation Introduced By Chichester With Dickens' Play By BUI Hatch Opening a novel production by the Bellingham Theater guild Wednesday evening, G. B. Chichester made his way down the aisle to the right of the opening nighters, took up his position before an improvised fireplace in front of the regular stage, and with perfect English accent and mannerism, began to tell the story of Charles Dickens' "The Cricket on the Hearth". As the curtain opens on this Gilmore Brown adaptation of the charming little story, the audience is treated to the sight of Hazel Seamen; as the very young Dot Perrybingle, fluttering about the room in anticipation of the arrival of her husband, her middle-aged, mail-carrier husband.'.With Jonnv Perrybingle, when he does arrive, is a very old, very deaf gentleman, who only sits by the fire and reads. As the slow witted, plodding, but well meaning John Perrybingle, Melvin Erickson turns in a highly commendable performance. As Tilly Blowboy, the teen-age orphan whom Dot and John have taken into their home to tend their newly arrived baby, Jean Scott gives a laughable, yet realistic performance. As the story unfolds, we learn that Mr. Tackleton, the rich toymaker^* case-hardened, thoroughly hateful old rascal, is about to take ta marriage May Fielding, daughter of a proud, but financially embarrassed fainfly. May, played by Patricia [Pelegren, WW^ friend of Dot Perrybingle, and of the blind girl, Bertha Rummer, played by Caroline Kuhn, another WWC student. Caleb Pluinmer, the Mred^yj-A maker of Mr. Tackleton, is a spare, toll-worn Uttle man whose single Ambition is to keep his daughter happy. His attempt to do so is pitiable^ and her rude awakening to their true station in life is a high pohit>in the play. In this scene Norman R. Burchette, as Caleb, and Miss Kolui (Continued on Page Three) y " ?n W0. JM^j^^S^^MS^SttlSS^^S^^^^^M^X |
