At Homecoming
Forgetting about f o o t b a ll
scores, the homecoming was quite
a success from a display, financial
and social standpoint.
Perfect
fall weather, with plenty of sunshine, brought hundreds to the
1931 gala celebration.
Mass Meeting
The student body spirits were
uncorked Friday evening at a
mass meeting in the auditorium.
The band was there in full force
as was the student body. Speeches were made by Prof. Spindler
and .Alta Stauffer.
What the
audience failed to· pack in their
cheers for the oceasion was included in their laughter when
John and Frank, two favorite
janitors, officia,ted in a farce football game staged by the Phi Sig
pledg-es.
Another stunt by the
W . .A . .A. and a onecact play by
the Harlequin Club added to the
zest of the evening. When the

KRYL'S THIRTY
PIECE BAND TO
APPEAR NOV. 2
All Stevens Point Invited
To Hear Famous Band
In .Auditorium
Kryl 's great band, on par with
the musical organizations of Sousa, Creatore, Gillmore, Prymor
and others, will appear in the College Auditorium Monday, November 2.
The wonderful band of thirty
pieces is being brought here
under a financial risk of three local men, and consequently a
crowd must be forth-coming to
assure success. No audience will
be lacking however, in a city
where interest in band work is s·o
high. President Frank S. Hyer,
Captain Ferdinand A. Hirzy and
Rev. Julius Chylinski have personally signed a note for $750 to
c:·ssure the appearance of Kryi
and his men, and the success of
the evening.
Remarkable Character
A press clipping that reaches us
from Kryl's twenty-seventh annual tour quotes Bohumir Kryl looks ju:st as he
did when he made his first appearances . before Middle vV est
audiences more than a quarter
century ago. The same thick mop
of hair, with a little more gray on
top of it, but no less gracefulness
and energy in direction.
Since
Kryl stood on the platform at
each concert for nearly an hour
and a half, and indulged in sustained flights on the cornet, requiring no end of air pressure, it
mu•s t be said that he is still sound
in wind and limb. Nor has he lost
uny of his ability to make even a
brass horn express feeling. Brass
horns, by the way, were present.
in all shH!pes. One striking effect,
reminding old timers of the day
when bands were bands, was a
bass twba with an aperture as big
as the muzzle of a 16-inch gun,
and a surrm.m ding e:x.panse of
glittering brass as big as a washtub, encrusted with elaborate designs in the way of harps, foliage
and what not that must have
meant a winter's work for a goldsmith.
Strength Evident

The down-town merchants are to be complimented on the manner
in which they trimmed their windows for the occasion. When requested by a faculty representative for display re'cognition of the
event, every business man reS1ponded heartily. The city officials are
to be thanked for their decoration of the city streets for the homecoming.
Our football team receives a hand for holding a champion eleven
to a small scme and for playing real football for one half of a re·g ular
football game. What happened to them the second half is a que-stion
asked not only by Coach Kotal but by every one. Did the lead of a
touchdown ·go to their heads? Admitting that Milwaukee had a heavier and more ex·perienced line we mum concede that they naturally
would have a ·bit more power as the tussle progressed. Never the
less, the manner in which our fellows dropped their vigor wws chronic
allld appalling. In the disg·ust of the moment and the apparent lack
of virility, Coach Kotal asked, ''What have I got here, a practi•ce ball
club~'' We know we have a real team and it hurts to lose ball games
in the manner in which three close defeats have been handed us.
Our football team will meet Eau Claire and Platteville in homecoming games, and the men should rooolve right now to rum these
celebrations in the same way that theirs was spoiled by Milwaukee.
The conduCtt of the students in their pep-fest down to-wn Friday
evening drew favorable comment from Stevens Point citi!Zens. The
collegians displayed plenty of enthusiasm but did not tend to rovvdiness and destructiveness. The student's did not -show very much enthusiasm in their cheering Saturday afternoon and cannot justifiably
"Wolf" over the lack of spirit on the part of the eleven. The next
home game we will call for volunteers from the men of the school and
form a regular cheering section in an attempt to remedy this situation.
The Omega Mu Chi, theW. A. A. and the Chi Delta Rho as well
as all the •other representatives in the parade are to be complimented
for their beautiful exhibitions of hard work in the preparations of
the remarkable floats. That display of college work also drew favorable comment from down town p-eople.
Now that it is all over let's come up smiling and get Eau Claire !

Vrobel Scores
The big city lads muffed scoring opportunities, and the Pointers took advantage of these
~'breaks" to hold the score down.
In fact, the locals scored their
own touchdown through a Milwaukee bobble. After a Point attack had fizzled out deep in
enemy territory Milwaukee elected to kick from back of her own
goal line. The punter was rushed,
fumbled, and Vrobel recovered
for a touchdown.
The incident was duplicated later when a M'ilwaukee advance
was checked on the four yard line.
Cashman dropped back to kick,
mussed it up, but a local pigskin
artist floprped on the ball, averting a touchdown. 'l'his touchback
proved the margin of victory for
Milwaukee.

Blocking Important
The game proved one thing blorkin": is essential for successful football. Milwaukee had it,
and they won. Po~nt ball-carriers
were a 1most unassisted - Russell
Atwood made his spectacular run
when he reversed his .field after
his interference had failed to take
out their men - and the Point
lost. We are not inferring that
faulty blocking lost the game, but
it is true that good blocking
would have got more first downs

phonic orgartization. 'fhe work of
the ciarinet section gave many
new knowle4ge of the possibilities
in tone, rangle and rapidity of fingering of th~ instrument.
Paderewsl~i 's "Minuet," played as an en~cre, was featured by
the cadenzas of Salvatore 'fosi,

of "Vienna 1<-,orest " by Strauss
were carried!by different sections:
the oboe beil/l.g outstanding.
Instru~entation Ideal
Kryl 's · iP:strumentation was
ideal for thE1 stirring, sensual music of "March Slav," by Tschaikowsky. One of the most beautiful numbers· was the largo from
"The New ·World Symphony," by
Dvorak, featuring a piccolo duet.

Hungarian Rhapsody,'' by Liszt,
v>u~ played was discouraging to
alllaieur organizations and the
work of the flutes would have
been fatal to an ambitious beginner.
The brass was given a
chance in Sousa's "Stars and
Stripes.'' An unusual combination as a trio of two piccolos and
a bass.
Scee and finale from ''Andrea
Chenier,'' by Giordano, was the
closing · number and was final
proof of the remarkable shading
effects achieved by Kryl.
Horns Emphasized
Throughout the conce,rt the
wood and horns wer.e emphasized,
giving orchestral effects which
haxe made Kryl famous.
Soloists were on a par with the
band: Wanda Menning, harpiste;
Matilda Mastulli, soprano; Latoava and Beuvell, aesthetic dancers,
and Frances -Valfely, xylophone.
Encores were demanded from
each.
'Vhe . -auaience· ·sat · speUbound
Few men have ever lived who affected the lives of the rest of
mankind a·s profoundly as Thomas A. Edison,. The famous old inventor left the world a vastly different place from. the world he entered 85 years ago.
Carlyle's remark that the history of the world is :s imply the story
of the lives of the world '•s greatest men seems peculiarly apt in Edison's case. Every inhabitant of a civilized nation lives urrder conditions that are utterly unlike what they would have been. if Edison
had never lived; and the changes the man caused are permanent
thing<> that will affect the lives of people a thousand years from now
as profoundly a·s today.
It is the fwshion among highbrows to remai1k that Edison was
never·a true "scientist." He never sp1m theories or followed earnestly after truth; from start to finiSih he was an inventor, the apotheosis of the men who devise handy little gadgets to save time and
labor. But what an inventor!
The world that Edison entered 85 years ago had no electric
lights, it had no radio, it had no moving· pictures, it had no phonographs; it had not learned how to use electri•city properly, and that
g-iant force which will some day perform all of the world's drudgery
was a useless and' mysterious giant.
And today~ From dawn to dusk you live according to .E'dison.
The trolley car or auto that takes you to work, the electric appliance
that toasts your bread or boils your coffee, the illumination by which
you work aud read, . the entertainment you get in the movie theater,
the music that comes over the air to you at night - Edison had his
hand in all of these things; if he had not lived you would not have
t_h em at all, or you would have them in a far less perfect form.
Scientist or inventor- who cares~ He made the world over,
and made life more comfortable and pleasant for millions on millions
of people. Mankind ha·s seldom been any more deeply in any one
man's debt.

W. A. A.
Prize Float
For two colliSecutive years the
W. A. A. has won second prize in

A color scheme
of green and
white composed the float and
three girls posed with bows and
arroW's facing a target. Preceding the float were two girls in
green and white costumes riding
onj horseback.
Miss Seen furnished a bit of humor to the parade by appearing
in a cowboy suit astride a Shetland pony. It really would have
hel,pecl had she carried the tiny
animal for a while to rest it.
.Archery
During· Mr. Rounseville 's visit
to the school last Thursday, forty-four students received archery
instruct~ons .
Only two boys availed themselves of the secrets of
success in archery. Mr. Rounseville was ass'istecl by faculty members and students. Miss Seen will
have archery every W eclnes.day at
the Fair Grounds. It iR not any
farther f;rom school than the

turnout is expected!
