Enrollment figures swelled to a record mark at Central State
Teachers· college when the total student enrollment for the fiscal
school year reached 683. This is the largest registration recorded in
the history of the local institution.
Present Enrollment 633
Total enrollment for the second semester climbed to 633; incidentally this is exactly the same as the first semester count. Presid~nt .Frank S. Hyer said that t~is is the first time in his memory that
the first and second semester figures balanced. Ordinarily, second
semester figures have a tendency
to decline because of mid-year
graduations, transfers, failures
and discontinuances. Fifty-one
new students were enrolled at the
second semester.

NO "PROM" THIS YEAR

Announcement that there will
be no "prom" at the Superior

of the Delta Iota Chi fraternity.
Professor McCarthy made the announcement on behalf of President
Jim D. Hill, who is in Madison.
While it was said by Professor
M0Carthy that the prom had been
canceled because of present economic conditions, it was learned
from other sources that the school

NELSON NOTES
BY NAT
,A. few
Novel touches in our dining-room
reminded us of Lincoln's ·b irthday
anniversary and St. Valentine's
Day on Friday and Sunday respectively. The bright red candles and
the heart· cookies reminded us of
those important days.
Miss Alta Sta'Uffer attended the
game at Oshkosh Friday and
brought back a report of the splendid playing of our boys despite the
disappointing score. Miss Margaret Frohrib a l s o attended the
game.
Miss Margaret Mortenson is detained at her home in Westfield on
account of the illness of her mother.
Miss Jean Lynn's sister, Mareva,
of Manitowoc, visited at the dormitory :F'riday and Sunday.
\Ve are happy to see Miss Jean
Morrill back from the hospital.
Miss I•one Harvey gave us a
pleasant surprise w hen she returned Sunday. lone reports that
the Michigan school system requires of its teachers certification
of at least three years of training
beyond high school work.
Miss Mac George, head librarian
at the municipal library, and Miss
Steffen, a Wisconsin University
Library School practice librarian
at the city library, were Miss
Hussei's guests at dinner Saturday in honor of Miss Merwin.
Misses Myrtle and Ethyl Wicke,
who teach llt Scandinavia, visited
here this week-end.
Miss ])oris Spellman is a re>eent
addition to our circle. Miss Spellman comes as a practical nurse
and she has proved her worth in
excellent care given our girls who
have been suffering from the ·epidemic of colds.
A number of our people were
entertained at a charming buffet

BULLETIN BOARDS
The Omega Mu Chi sorority
have registered a complaint with
The Pointer due to the practice ilf
individuals tampering with their
bulletin board. Several clippings,
etc., have been removed on various
occasions.
The Phi Sig 's wish to call attention to the fact that the over-night
news and bulletins, placed on thier
hoard daily, are the rumors of
happenings that reach the Milwaukee office of the Associated Press
early in the morning and are unconfirmed. Although these Clipings, which are received from the
Journal machine,
are usually
correct, sometimes the report is a
bit colored and sensational. An
example is given in the case of
the Cuban . earthquake; the early
report stated, that 2,000 were kiied but confirmed reports later
showed that but a dozen, or so,
had lost their lives.
LAST WEEKS RADIO HOUR
The College Radio Hour last
week consisted of the following
num·b ers: Home Ec Hour-Eileen
Mueller and Sadie Storzbach;
College News - Burton Hotvedt;
Piano Solos - Edward Plank;
and a talk on ''Modern Art'' by
Mr. Giovannini.
Mr. Leland M. Burroughs, who
is in charge of the hour, was delivering an address at the local
High School during the program
and Clarence Styza had charge in
his place and was the announcer.

HIS OPINION
An old offender was found guilty of stealing a horse and received
a stiff sentence on account of his
previous record. The judge addressed him as follows :
"It is my intention to sentence
you to eight years at least. Now,
before sentence is formally pronounced, I shall listen to anything
you may have to say on your behalf. ' '
After a minute or two the culprit spoke:
''I
. don't know ez I've b<>'Ot any
t h mg to say only this, it strikes
me that you folks 'round here are
purty toler'ble dam' liberal with
other people's time.''
