^W.^' WXJ. XXVI—NO. A AVASHmGTONOTAm Friday, October 22, 1926 Cedar Chips By Ted FACULTY NUMBER Members of the Faculty, you have a right to demand the Faculty Number. By the way, students already have their number. EDITORIAL (Don't Read) Conditions bad reached the point where Mr. Marquis said: "We have to have windows open in here. Why don't you girls over there bring some clothes to class, and if you're cold, you can put •em on." Dr. Miller (in psychology): "We find that girls learn to walk and talk at an earlier age than boys. But then, of course, they probably have the urge to talk earlier. Big Events For Homecoming Planned BE TUSSlf TO FEATURE OF Serpentine and Bonfire Will Precede Game in Rally to be Staged Friday, the 5th. fudge Lindsay Will Speak at Assembly Wednesday Morning MIXER ON SATURDAY EVE Banquet for Alumni to be Held in-Edens Hall with Program of Music and Speeches. NOW YOU TELL ONE. Pres. Fisher: "I'm sorry, Mr. Arrested, but just state in the Messenger that I had nothing to say in Assembly. LOCAL BOY HAKES GOOD. Chapter 7%j of "She Was Just an Edens Hall Girl" Little did Lynus Alonzo Kibbe, young son of his father and mother, dream, as he started on his first year in the first grade.in a little school east of Bellingham, tnta someday life would recompense him for those days bent tinder the role of teachers... No, nor did imagination write across his mind with the faintest ink (using Waterman's latest product-step into the Co-op for their ridiculously low prices) that some day the years wonld pay him for hours of toil spent after school copying on his slate from the long, dull pages of the American Mercury. Always a stickler for style, Mr. Kibbe told our reporter of his personal appearance. "I always tried to go to school dressed .neatly and completely," he said, lapsing into "rime." Mr. Kibbe drove home this last truth by reciting two or three snappy pages of the State Code. "When I was very young my hair was light. Later it became darker. Now," and right here the new library building would have rocked with laughter, "it's growing lighter again." A friend of Mr. Kibbe, a lady, hadn't seen his son, Merle, late student of the Normal, for fifteen years. At that time Merle was four or five years old, coeval -with other children of the same age, it must be added. * "My, my, how Merle has grown!" said Mr. Kibbe's friend, a lady. " O h , yes," returned Mr. Kibbe, "but you'd almost expect that in fifteen years." # » # » FOILED AGAIN ...."Don't think because I'm not giving you any questions about this poem," explained Miss Sperry, "it's fecause I can't." • * • "I was the best marksman in 17 counties, when a boy," said Mr. Bever, in Sociology, as the students busily took Botes. "Not a better man than me I" "Gunga Din," shouted Herb Fowler, as lie passed by on h'is way to get a drink. " * * * At "Disraeli," Mr. Arntzen asked Erma Littler at'the"door, if his seats •were good and close .to. the front. . "Any further down,?' was Erma's bored reply, "and you'd be in the <cast." '••'.. '"• '• ' ' _ . . • ' # » • » Passing Miss Wilson's auditorium class, jwe believe that such popularity must be /•deserved. That Homecoming this year, November 5 and 6, promises to be the biggest and best ever, is the opinion of Estelle Martinson, general chairman of the Homecoming reception. With a personnel consisting of Miss Edens, Mr. Kibbe, Miss Crawford, Miss Pragst, and Miss Gragg, representing the faculty and Norman Vance, Elsa Pearl, Roy Arnett, and Olive Hardan, representing the students, working under Estelle Martinson, 1926 Homecoming will be an event always to be remembered. Rally and Serpentine Friday night -will witness a pep rally in the form of a serpentine and bonfire. Speeches will be given by Coaches Carver and Keeney, and an address by President C. H. Fisher. Throughout Friday afternoon and evening, Normal girls will be on hand to meet homecoming students, coming by. train, interurban and boat. Saturday morning, registration of the Alumni will take place. Mrs. Vaugh-an, Miss Skalley, and Mr. Fowler of the faculty, will be on hand to greet them. Luncheon Olive Hardan has charge of sale of tickets for the noonday luncheons to be given at Edens Hall and Cafeteria, Saturday Different clubs will present short acts for the approval of the students, alumni, and faculty Vikings Play Cheney What promises to be one of the most interesting and thrilling games will be played Saturday afternoon. Normal plays Cheney, and both teams will be out ot win. Several striking features will be put on before and during the half intermission of the game. At 6:30 P. M. a banquet will be given in* Edens Hall and following this a Mixer will be held at the State Armory. Only Student Association ticket holders and Alumni will be admitted. A very interesting assembly program, which includes a special assembly on Wednesday, October 27, at 11 o'clock, has been scheduled for the next week. On Tuesday, at the regular assembly, the Artist Concert Bureau of Everett, will present Mrs. Edgar M. Rodgers, pianist; Mrs. Alfa Lindaas Gregerson, soprano; Mr. Rollo Mauls-by, tenor; and Miss Emily Smyth, accompanist, in a musical program. At 11 o'clock on Wednesday, Judge Ben B. 'Lindsay, judge of Denver's juvenile court, will, lecture, and Miss Brown, of the Bellingham School of Music will furnish the program on Friday. o W. A. A. Members to Climb Skyline Ridge Tomorrow -a if TO BEPHHIBI Mendelssohn's Oratorio to be Given in Middle of the Spring Quarter by Choral Society. Tomorrow a trip to Skyline is planned for the W. A. A. members. Those going are to leave the Interurban and Stage depot at 6 a. m. They will take a 38-mile ride to Glacier and then hike five miles up a steep trail to Skyline. If the weather is clear the view IB one of the best in the Northwest. The cost of the trip will be two dollars. Everyone is to furnish his own lunch. This trip is to be a one-day journey. The party of hikers will return home about seven or eight o'clock in the evening. Further notices will be shown on the W. A. A. bulletin board. FACULTY WOMEN TO HAVE SOCCER TEAM A general decoration committee will see to that the campus, school buildings, field, and Armory are decorated to the nth degree. Prizes will be awarded for the best decorated house. Bryan Hankins has been awarded the contract for the Homecoming Book, which will be sold at the minimum price of twenty-five cents. o FACULTY STAGE BLOW-OUT THIS EVENING Not to be outdone by the students, the women of the faculty are organizing a soccer team, and expect to offer some lively competition to the student teams. If enough interest is shown in Soccer, teams may be organized in other sports as well as classes in Dramatics and Folk Dancing. The Choral Society has begun the study of one of Mendelssohn's most-popular works, the oratorio "Elijah." The oratorio opens with a short recitative, Elijah's prophecy of a drought, which leads into a short sombre overture indicative of the distress which is to follow: The next scene deals with Ahab and the prophets of Baal, followed by the calm prayer of Elijah as he calls for the fire to descend upon the altar. In a dialogue between the Prophet, the People, and the Youth, Elijah bids them look towards the sea as the storm approaches and the rain descends.; - The second part opens with a brilliant soprano solo, "Hear ye, Israel," which leads into the magnificent chorus, "Be Not Afraid," Elijah complains, "O Lord, I have labored in vain," in response to which comes a contralto aria of unexcelled beauty, "O, eRst in the Lord." The next scene, which is the most dramatic in the oratorio, describes the presence of the Lord. The last scene depicts the coming of the chariot, and the whirlwind by which Elijah is caught up into heaven. The oratorio will be given by the Choral Society about the middle of the spring quarter. o NEW COURSE GIVEN IN GENERAL DRAWING New Type of Work Offered inlndustrial Arts Department Which will Interest Students. FOOTBALL SOUVENIRS TO BE BETTER, CLAIM According to Bryan Hankins, who is in charge of the work, the football souvenirs which will be sold for Homecoming, will be larger and better than, ever before. Plans for the souvenir booklets have been completed and the work will be finished in about three weeks. Individual pictures of the members of the Viking team, and group pictures of the Cheney squad will be featured in the souvenir, while a complete program of the day's events and a list of yells and songs will be included. , It is planned to have one thousand copies made, and these will be sold during the assembly hour on the Friday preceding Homecoming. o '•— Students Confess Reading Weekly Mess Occasionally Normal Gridders Undergo Strenuous Weeks Workout Previous to Saturday's Game With Yearlings.

Kathryn Leach, Editor of Klipsun, Chooses Staff for This Year 'Disraeli," Produced by Radford Art Players, Well Received by All Miss Rich: "Hurry up, Mr. Bever, we can't miss tWs "rec" hour. ••:yvv•,•••-••;•* •'-••:;• '••: :• Promising to be an enjoyable affair is the faculty dinner at which eigthy-eight members and friends are attending this evening at Edens Hall at 7 o'clock. Hallowe'en sug^ gestions are being carried out in the decorations and Miss Eleanor Osborn, president of the faculty forum, will announce the following entertainers: Miss Adele Jones will sing "Pierrot," by Lilla Ofmond, and "The Lark Now Leaves His Wat'ry Nest," by Horatio Parker, and will be accompanied by Miss Edith Strange. Mr. Herbert Ruckmick will render a violin solo, and Mr. Harold Smith will entertain with a piano selection/ The address of welcome will be given by Miss Olive Edens and Miss Emma, Erickson will respond for the new! members of the faculty. Later in the evening, further entertainment will be given in the so-' cial hall: ;:-•'• . , "Disraeli," an- English _, play by Louis N. Parker, was the play presented lay the Radford Art Players in the auditorium last Friday evening. The play, which was well received by the audience of students and townspeople, was an attempt to show a picture of the days in which Disraeli lived, and some of the racial, social, and political prejudices he fought against and conquered. The Eadford Art Players are members of the Radford Drama School of Tacoma and do their work under the direction of Miss Ruth Radford. Splendid opportunities are being offered in the new course in General Drawing in the Industrial Arts department. ' Mr. Ruckmick feels that many students would be greatly interested in this type of work if they had more knowledge of what it includes. He states that the course is not designed to show the principles of drafting, so much as it is to use drawings for general reading purposes in various industries. Drawing is very necessary to shop teachers and work that is done in this course may be utilized in their own classes. The course in general drawing presents two specific phases. First, that of enabling people to read drawings and to use them in related fields. Second, it gives them a means by which they can express their ingenuity on-paper in such a way that' somebody else can work it out. Roughly speaking the Messenger Questionnaire proposition was a success. Everyone reads the Messen-ger, that is question number one answered correctly. The exchange column is evidently paS-se, no one has read it of late, probably because there has not been any to read. Everyone wanted the student opinion column revived. That problem certainly must be solved for good and all now. Those people who do not read the editorials are not aware of what they miss. Only 150 wanted the back page to degenerate into a woman's page. Since 850 votes are necessary to pass on this measure Ave'll give the majority their say. Anyone wishing a diversion is cordially invited to come into the Messenger office and read the suggestions that were for the improvement of the paper. o =— Kathryn Leach was elected editor of the Klipsun at the recent meeting of the Board of Control. With the exception of one or two members, which may be added later, the entire staff has been chosen. Miss Leach has selected them with the idea of previous experience and reliability.

The first class will meet in the big gym at a date to be set by Mrs. Tischer. Scholarship Society At the first regular meeting, last Monday, October 19th, the Scholar-, ship Society elected the following new officers: President, Lyman Phifer; vice president, Louis Bassett; secretary-treasurer, Alice- Parkins. Mr. Arntzen was unanimously . re-ejected sponser. 7 .On that memorable Monday moonlight night of-this week, a quintet of husky male voices was heard, pouring forth its mirth with songs, laughter and noise on the steps of W. S. N. S. beneath the library windows. Many hardy Vikings, who were buried in their books, yea to their very eyebrows (possibly sleeping) were annoyed by the confusion, and with courage that would make Lief Erickson look sick, they set forth to conquer the unfortunate annoyers. The scene of action then shifted to the rear of. the dormitory.'--Shiek Lindsay .and Bernard Sullivan, who recently resigned as reporter of the Shuttie's Times in order that he might become columnist for the Messenger, rounded up a gang to plunder and murder those dauntless entertainers. It was thought that too much, bloodshed would occur, thereby: causing": members; qfJ;the fairer sex;, who'^ere/ perched en masse on the fire escape of Edens Hall, to faint, so a cup of water was procured. The fire escapes were filled with ardent backers of the choral movement. A lad, Dale by name, received unusual applause from across the chasm for rendering most beautifully a solo, entitled, "Oh 1.1 wish I hadn't come out tonight!". A southpaw, for the benefit of Freshmen only, his name is withheld, made himself conspicuous by his absence, for all the women in the hall were mourning him. , ." • ; As. the reporter was' called home, because of the new house rules, he heard the musical strains die on the soft evening air. The serenaders had won the right < to sing,. so henceforth if you hear them sing, think twice before you attack them. Bryan Hankins, unaware of all this prolific indulgence, was busily occupying .himself finishing his sweeping beat in the grand'stand . . . or was When the Moroni Olsen Players present "Dear Brutus" one week from tomorrow evening, they will bring to the Normal the effects of a summer spent in diligent study and practice. The cast has been getting much pleasure fromits rehearsals. Of the play, Mr. Olsen says: " *Dear Brutus' is too fantastic and careless for realism, too tumorous for romance, too serious for farce. It could never possibly have happened and yet it is all true. It is true because the peolpe in it are alive, not only when good actors take up the wordsj but when we visualize them on the printed page. The story is one which is at once one of the most amusing and one of the bitterest in all the range of English drama. - — .. Barrie writes frankly for actors and actresses rather than - readers. He gives to all his players something more to do than merely to repeat his dialogue. In fact, he * hands the whole play over to them." The Moroni . Olsen players have proved popular with the Normal audiences for the past three years. The plays, such as "Candida," "Taming of the Shrew," "The Ship," and "Friend Hannah," have established a reputation for this company which Mr. Olsen endeavors always to excel. The choice made in "Dear Brutus" will bring to these players new friends who will follow them in all their future productions. The Viking warriors have been going through stiff training this past week in preparation for tomorrow's contest with the University of Washington Freshmen in the Stadium at Seattle, at 10 a. m. The Normal team is getting stronger every'weekj showing greater power and better teamwork and is expected to make the tough yearling squad go to the utmost to capture the victory. The two teams appear evenly matched. The .Vikings having lost to St. Martin's, while the Frosh dropped their initial game last Sat: urday to the strong Ellensburg squad 6-0. The Washington babes have always put out strong teams, often going through the season undefeated. They have a strong line-up and are slight favorites to take the contest. The Vikings, in late years, have acquired the habit of upsetting the U. of W. team, winning in 1923 and again conquered last year coming from behind in the last quarter to win 13-10. The Frosh line-up is composed chiefly, of former Seattle high.school stars, coached by Wayne Sutton. These aspiring future greats are tough nuts for any team to crack; and, having lost their first game, are sure t o . b e out. for Bellingham blood, tomorrow. With a desire to win over the Freshmen, the Vikings have been looking forward during the iast two weeks for this game. In. this week's turnouts, great strength has been exhibited by the aspiring gridders. The line has been functioning better than ever. Both Hyde and Don Stickney, at center, have proved bulwarks of defense, while each has shown accuracy at passing. The guards and tackles, before playing unsteadily, have^ shown power, endurance, and team work in scrimmage that will make them tough opponents of the Frosh line. Baxter, Blizzard, Iverson, Shelton, Christman, and Beighle will bear the. brunt of opposing line plunges. With a good sub for each good regular, the (Continued on Page"" Four) HA£i,OWE'EN PAJAMA PARi'Y TO BE GIVEN Plans for a Hallowe'en pajama party to be given Wenesday evening, October 27, are being made- by the Edens Hall girls.

Pres. Fisher: "I'm sorry, Mr. Arrested,

Assembly.
LOCAL BOY HAKES GOOD.
Chapter 7%j
of
"She Was Just an Edens Hall Girl"
Little did Lynus Alonzo Kibbe, young
son of his father and mother, dream, as
he started on his first year in the first
grade.in a little school east of Bellingham,
tnta someday life would recompense
him for those days bent tinder the role
of teachers... No, nor did imagination
write across his mind with the faintest
ink (using Waterman's latest product-step
into the Co-op for their ridiculously
low prices) that some day the years
wonld pay him for hours of toil spent
after school copying on his slate from
the long, dull pages of the American
Mercury.
Always a stickler for style, Mr. Kibbe
told our reporter of his personal appearance.
"I always tried to go to school dressed
.neatly and completely," he said, lapsing
into "rime." Mr. Kibbe drove home this
last truth by reciting two or three snappy
pages of the State Code.
"When I was very young my hair was
light. Later it became darker. Now,"
and right here the new library building
would have rocked with laughter, "it's
growing lighter again."
A friend of Mr. Kibbe, a lady, hadn't
seen his son, Merle, late student of the
Normal, for fifteen years. At that time
Merle was four or five years old, coeval
-with other children of the same age, it
must be added.
* "My, my, how Merle has grown!" said
Mr. Kibbe's friend, a lady.
" O h , yes," returned Mr. Kibbe, "but
you'd almost expect that in fifteen
years."

FOILED AGAIN
...."Don't think because I'm not giving
you any questions about this
poem," explained Miss Sperry, "it's

"I was the best marksman in 17 counties,
when a boy," said Mr. Bever, in
Sociology, as the students busily took
Botes. "Not a better man than me I"
"Gunga Din," shouted Herb Fowler, as
lie passed by on h'is way to get a drink.
