To be frank, there is a feeling of relief and satisfaction with the completion of this contract. Yet, to be equally frank without becoming sentimental an_d trite, there are regrets and a host of appreciations mingled with this · relief. There is regret at the loss of expression that the writer has enjoyed in these columns, and regret associated with the knowledge that the completed project might have been better done. It is not good policy to editorialize in the first person, but since this article concerns the editor for the past year, may I be pardoned for the exception to the rule. The Pointer may be a relatively small part of the college life to the majority of the students, but to t~e members of The Pointer staff it is paramount. I am duly appreciative of the efforts and initiative that these assistants have contributed especially this week since the editor's duties have been limited to 'what might be accomplished in bed with that Nemesis, (the Mumps.) The work of The Pointer is not all in_ evid~nce in its ~ews­ print production. A great amount of effort l_Ies With the busu~.ess and circulation duties, and it has been a great aid to have responsible persons in charge of the;se departments. For examp~e, th_e lone assistant circulation manager has handled a two-man JOb without reluctance for the past months, spending over-time hours p~eparing the hundreds of Pointers for mailing each week. Such activity has been satisfying. The library, the president's office, the athletic de.partments, and every other source of aid and material has been especially co-operative. To the W orzalla Publishing Company may. go a great deal of credit for their painstaking specialization in prin~mg our small sheet, _not to mention the merit due them for the patience they have held when our little system failed to mesh with their ~ime-c~ock schedule.

Dry Cleaning Phone 380 No Extra Charges for Collection and Delivery I II I 5 THE POINTER Five College Athletes Win Track Awards Hig·h Jump of 6 Feet 2 Inches; Low Hurdles Run In 25.8 Seconds Art Thompson and Russ Atwood have a right to feel proud. The boys went to the State Meet at Madison with the Point track team and succeeded in smashing the state record in two events, Thompson in the high jump and Atwood in low hurdles. Betters 6 Feet "Tommy's" highest mark up till the state meet had been an even 6 feet, garnered at the Milwaukee-Point meet. They tell us that at Madison - Art just kept jumping and jumping till finally he went ov~r at 6 ft. 2 1/ 3 inches for a new state record. Five men, Arthur Thompson, Russel Atwood, Lyman Scribner, Myron F'ritch, and Harold Reickert, have been presented with major athletic awards for their work in track this spring. Thompson specialized in the high jump and pole vault. Atwood's events were the low and high hurdles, while Fritsch was the weight man of the team, throwing the shot and the discus. Scribner A Winner Scribner was the outstanding distance man in the teachers college confe rence, winning the mile and two mile runs consistently. Reickert ran the dashes and placeel in the broad jump. The award presented is similar to the regular award presented for football and ·b asketbalL Russ Sets Record Russel was handicapped in breaking the low-hurdle record in the very good time of 25.8. It seems that Russ beat the gun in the first start, and was called back and warned by the starter. This sobered him so much that he was the last man away in the second start. He overhauled the entire field, however, to win in the last stride. Scribner Wins Lyman Scribner kept up his consistent performance of the year in taking a first in the mile run with the time of 4 :39 :5. "Scrib" led the pack from the start and had enough stamina to last it out in front. He also came back to place second in the two mile run. Lyman was the high point man for the locals in this meet as he has been in all others. The relay team, composed of Baker, Atwood, Reickert and Krueger took third in the relay with a time of 1:33:7. Other points were picked up by Thompson, who took fourth in the pole vault with 12 feet, and Atwood, who placed fourth in the high hurdles with a time of 16 :1. Fifth In Meet The team took fifth place in the meet, only a few points behind Oshkosh. The showing was remarkably good considering the fact that only nine men made the trip. Milwaukee Teachers, represented by a twenty-one man team, won the meet easily, as was expected. The Pointer thinly-clads were further crippled by the failure of Ed. Baker to round into form for the dashes. Baker was injured early in the season, and was unable to regain the form that made him a point winner last year.

The Chi Delts won the first game of the series, 4 to 1. The Phi Sigs snatched the second, 7 to 4. Yesterday's contest was one of the best displayed on the school diamond.

' THE POINTER GROUP HEADS ANNUAL SENIOR Annual Ball HOLD MEETING PLAY IS GIVEN And Banquet Held Friday WITH R0GERS Klein's "The Lion And The Mouse'' Coached By Leone C1tte· Next Year's Social Calendar Already Completed; H a n d Books To Be Issued Students Presidents and heads of the various school organizations met with Professor T. A. Rogers, chairman of the social committee, last week and drew up a social calendar for next year. As a result of this joint meeting there will be no mix-up in dates of college social functions next year. 'l'he increasing number of school organizations, dances, parties and social activities necessitated organized action. To Publish Hand-Book A hand-book containing the dates of the school dances, fraternity and sorority formals and other school parties, and important school information will be published by the senior girls of the 1933 class. The name of the organization sponsoring the party will also be found in the manual. Closing Time Of Dances A copy of the hand-book will be given, free of charge, to each student registering at the college next fall. At the meeting it was also decided to discontinue all school dances on Friday nights- at midnight. Saturday riight dances will close at 11 :45 P.M. Fraternities and sororities will be allowed to one o-clock for their formal dances. Start Dances On Time Heads of the organizations were also urged to start their dances on time and to encourage students to come early. There has been a tendency in past years for students to wander in late. ·IT AIN'T SO Dear Ed. : - Being self-elected Campus Critic at large I feel called upon for another '·blurb'. Might I suggest that we name the library "The Tower -of Babel" (rbrub'ble). Why must some people choose the library for a general 'rendezvous' and meeting place, when we have large spacious halls extending the full length of the building, the great outdoors, and any and all of the innumerruble places where the noble art of conversation is in order. Talking, rustling papers, and walking hither and yon on cleated-leather heels all go for creating a disturbance- and wasting the time of those who are working. After all, the library is a place for study and research and most people are there for that purpose. BOIINST'EIN Yesterday ''The Lion and the Mouse", by Charles Klein, was presented in the .
