The Weekly Messenger Devoted to the Interests of the Student Body, Washington State Normal School VOL. XX BELLINGHAM, WASHINGTON, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 19, 1920 NO. 8 I OF PUIS EXCELLENT DRAMATIC PRODUCTIONS ARE SHOWN AT ASSEMBLY Pleasing to Audience Least Friday's assembly was turned over to the Thespian Dramatic Club who displayed much natural ability in the lively program which they put before the student body. The Irish comedy, written by Mercedes Goclet, was pleasing with its Irish wit and clever acting. Betty Lee, as Kathleen, the sweet Irish colleen, carried away the honors. To display their art in silent drama, a pantomime was presented. It would be impossible to determine the best actor for all carried out their roles with -a humor that delighted the students. Melba Hinds, as the farmer's daughter, harassed by many suitors, proved versatile as to hiding places for said suitors when father's (Ed Wolter's) firm step was heard. During the interval between the two plays, Miss Madeline Hess delighted the students with two really worth while selections on the piano. STUDIO ART CLUB The regular meeting of the Art Club was held Thursday evening, with several prospective members in attendance. A short business session convened, after which much talent was displayed when each member was presented with a sketch to reproduce. That greatest home day of the year Has come again with all its cherished memories. As we speak our gratitude for heavenly bounty, we voice New determination to be helpful in the days ahead. Kindness stirs afresh the human heart; Sympathy for fellow-man uproots selfishness; Generosity reaches beyond the home circle; Interest in all mankind is manifest; Visits and hand-clasps supplant mere thoughts and words; Isolation and sorrow vanish at the touch of friendly hands; Neighborliness takes on a deeper meaning. God help us all to measure thankfulness in loving deeds! — G. W. NASH BASKETBALL THESPIANS, FIGHTING HARD, ARE OUTPLAYED BY CLUB RIVALS Final Score Is 27 to 14 Operetta Given by Junior High School The members of the Junior High School invite their friends to the operetta, " The Indian Princess," to be given in the auditorium at the Normal School on Friday afternoon, November 19, at 2:30 o'clock. The first act of "The Indian Princess " portrays the landing of the Englishmen in Virginia, the choosing of John Smith as governor, the lack of industry on the part of the sailors and English gentlemen, and closes with the Dream Song and the Dance of the Dream Fairies. The second act presents the camp of the Chief Powhatan, the capture of John Smith and his rescue by Pocahontas. Interesting features are the Indian Dance by the braves and pappooses, and the Canoe Song by Pocahontas and her maidens. Edgar Wirth, Bernice Musser and Toddlers Beat Sages Last Tuesday evening at 4 o'clock the Juniors beat the Seniors 49 to 36 in an exciting game of indoor baseball. The Seniors won the toss-up and took the field for the first inning, during which time the Juniors ran up fourteen points. The Seniors were successful in securing only five points during their section of the inning. Because of lack of time only seven innings were played, and the final count was 36 to 49 in favor of the Juniors. Mr. Carver refereed the game. Mr. Hoppe will attend the community P.-T. A. at Forest Park and at Rolling- Bay a week from Friday. It is his second trip to both places. Merle Kibbe take the parts of Powhatan, Pocahontas and John Smith. Sixty people wil ltake part in the choruses, in English, sailor and Indian costumes. The war is still on! and a very decisive battle has won on the plains of our small gymnasium just before dark last Friday. The battle raged in fury and it seemed for a while that the enemy that carried the flag of the Philos were to drive the warriors of the Thespians from the field. But a truce was called and both armies rested for the final onslaught. Fierce was the second encounter, and the Philo army was somewhat' astonished as to the rapid blows they received, when cannon ball after cannon ball was dropped through their baskets. The Philos left the field victorious, with twenty-seven direct shots against the fourteen placed by the Thespian artillery. There is talk of other club battles, but they have not been arranged as yet. Some of the Normal turned out, but more should come and enjoy the next game if you want something that is not as gentle as football. It will be a rare treat and thrilling at that.
