STRONG BATTLE LOCALS L OSE ODDS IN GAME

W ITH WHITEWATER The Pointers battled a real game

Saturday, but odds all aga inst them, lost by a score of 42 to 0. Th ere were times that the Pointers drove through th!.! line for downs, but see med to have dif­fi culty in holding th e ball when they were tra,·cling smoothly.

BRILLIANT PASSES STAGED Th e game was featured by some bril­

liant pnssi.ng on the pa rt of the \Vhi tc­watcr team. Alberts, tho Pointer's quarterback, ran 50 yards before he wns finn1Jy downed on the 5 ya rd line. rrhe next play was a fumble , and \Vhitcwatcr seemed to get all the breaks, so we lost the ball.

!\[arshall did some rC'::tl line cr:1shing for yard after yard. Kit ow ski and Frater played guards and made holes for our boys and closed them up when \Vhitewnte r tried to eomc through. Th e t eam played mueh better ball t han the score indicates. The Pointers outplayed Whitewater in line plunging.

A HOMECOMING SUBSTITUTE

11F a va riable approaches a constant in such a way that the differ­

ence becomes and r emains numerica lly less than any preassigned positive nnmber, however small , the constant, i said to be the limit of the variable.

The variable is our display of school spirit. The constant is this years display. Surely this has to be the limit of our backing our school, or rather our lack of backin g.

For some time in th e past, each year our school has staged a per­formance called "Homecoming" in which everyoue makes "Grand Whoopee ". All the graduates are cordially welcomed to see what the "freshies ''. and other students a re doing to the school. Everyone looks forward to " Homecoming" and plans and works like nobody's bizz. And this year all of that is a minus quantity.

We have no home footba ll game this year for some reason which we cannot J"e medy. A football game is the big thing that unifies the student body. Everything else helps but the game is "it". This year we have to find some other unify ing fa ctor, and any suggestion seems meager. · But a suggestion at least can do no harm.

W. A. A. Pledges Initiated Tues.

Initiations are still in order it seems. At the 1ast W . A. A. meeting Tuosday night two new members, Regina Groth and E dith Sansom, were initiated into the club. The suffering which the poor girls underwent I was te rrific. OpE:ra· tions with saws, axes and knives as im­p lements, caused much of t he agon,y. A weird ghost story, the rend in g of which was interrupted by ee rie and blood­curdling sounds, was read iJy Crysta l Joseph. As only a pale green light shone in the room while th e sto ry was being read, the screams of the liste ner~ nea rly d rowned out those of the "ghost." All of the elcet members with the aid of toothpicks und newspapers dressed and acted the pa rts of w e ll­known ~omie strip characters. E li n. Cin ­ders, Toots and Casper, Barney Google, Buttercup and a few others performed admirably. It was a rclirf to the in it ia­ted pnd initiators alike when the meet­ing adjourned to the gym where refresh­ments we re served and dancing enjoyed.

A program bas been arranged cele­brating National Education '\Veek.

11 iss Roach was afforded an excellent opportunity to study the methods of in­di ,·idualizc<l instruction in which she is highl r interested, when she visited the schools of \\"innctka, Illinois. Under the direction of Dr. Carleton Wash­burn , these schools have been organized a s expe riments in education through the elementary grades. :\liss Roach visited th e schools Wedu es<lav and Thursday. She a rrived in Mil\niuk ec Thursday night on ly a little late for the banquet nt th e Hote l Miller.

Some of the rooms which. arc now being used for practice teaching on second fl oor ·will not be occupied after the new training school is finished . Of cou rse t hese rooms should not remain empty as they could be used to ad­vantages in many ways. Would an in­viting comfortable room furnished with a sofa, chairs, table, soft pillows, and i11tcresting and entertain in g books and magazines appeal to most of us1 It would also furnish a plac~ to gossip privately with a fri end or classmate after school and it would relieve some of the conges 10n l n tlie lialls. - -

.This room, however, would be espe· cially for the girls. A small sum could be collected among the women of C. S. T. C. to cover tho furnishing of the room. Are you interested in the sebeme1 Let's have your opinion.
