Homecoming
Organized For The Development
Of Individual Opinions
And Expression
A club distinctive from any
other group on the campus has
been formed by nine men of the
teachers college. The new organization will be known as the
"Bloc", and will be devoted to
the free study and discussion of
current topics, government, ethics
and controversial problems of
value and interest.
Meets Tonight
The Bloc meets tonight at 7:30
p. m. for the first time, at the
home of Prof. Norman E. Knutzen, who is an active member of
the organization. The issue of
the Soldiers' Bonus will be
studied, and will be presented by
Prof. E. T. Smith and Captain
Ferdinand A. Hirzy. It is understood that outside authorities will
be invited to each meeting to present their views on the particular
subject chosen and to partake in
the informal discussion to follow.
Discuss Current Topics
The men plan not to subdue
differences of opinion, but rather
to encourage and develop individual expression and thought on
current questions. The Bloc is an
activity entirely aside from the
college and voluntary as far as
the p a r t i c i p a n t s are concerned.
Membership will be
maintained by the selection of
students with records in forensics, scholastics, journalism or
other activities that would indicate the type of individualism demanded by the organization.
However, it is expected that Bloc
will never include more than a
dozen members at any time. The
Bloc will meet again next Thursday evening and every second
Thursday following, to fit itself
into the social calendar. All of
the meetings will be held in private homes.
Members
The charter members of Bloc
are: . Samuel Bluthe, Donald
Crocker, Marlowe Boyle, John
Wied, Tom Smith, George Maurer, Celestine Nuesse, Burton Hotvedt, and Brof. Norman E. Knutzen.

VIG DEVISES A NEW AD SCHEME
We try to avoid patting members of our staff on the back but
Cedric Vig, business manager of the Pointer, has devised an entirely
new advertising scheme which we believe is deserving of mention.
Vig, realizing that under the present hard times local merchants
would be slashing their advertising expenses, had some attractive
window cards printed. The cards, which are found in most of the
windows of our down town stores, inform the window shoppers that
the store is a Pointer advertiser. The cards are printed in handsome
purple and gold, our college colors.
Local faculty members and students spend thousands of dollars
with Stevens Point merchants during the year, and naturally they in
return, should give us support. But going the other way, we must
bear in mind that it is our Pointer advertisers who make possible the
publication of our weekly paper. True it is, that money received
from the student athletic fund finances more than 50 per cent of our
enterprise. But without the support of town merchants we would go
heavily in the "red" each year.
Some merchants are of the opinion that advertising in the college paper should be charged to charity expense. We disagree with
that contention. Hereafter, when making a purchase, if students
will inform local merchants and business men that they are college
students .and appreciate the support our advertisers are giving the
Pointer, we can change this opinion of some.
Last week a college student was soliciting some advertising for
our directory. The merchant he approached said that the business
he realized from our college didn't warrant his giving an ad for this
certain enterprise. The merchant had scarcely made the remark
when another student brushed by with an armful of merchandise
purchased from this store amounting to approximate!y $16. The student purcha;;er had paid cash for the articles and unintentionally had
failed to let the store management know that he was a local college
student. Similar occurrences are happening daily.
We want to prove to our merchants that all Pointer advertising
can't justly be charged to charity expense. ·will you cooperate with
us by broadcasting our college and letting local merchants know who
you are every time you deposit a dime or dollar in their cash
Tegisters?
OUR VARSITY-ALUMNI GAME
Next Saturday afternoon our annual varsity-alumni game will
be played here. Just where the contest is to be staged remains a
question.
Some faculty members and students advocate that the
scrimmage tilt be played at the old fair grounds field instead of on
our new athletic ground. They back their statement with the argument that to use our new athletic field Saturday would tear away
part of the thrill of our dedication and homecoming game on October 15.
There are two sides to the question. Naturally Coach Eddie Kotal and his gridders want a decent gridiron to play on. So do the
alumni. But looking at it from the other angle, to dig up the turf
and green sod on our new field next Saturday with no other home
games to be played here before the homecoming tilt presents another
sound opinion. We play alumni games every year. A dedication
ceremony 1s a rare event in any college. Whatever our athletic committee decides, it's a delicate matter to deal with. We have the assurance that whatever the committee does it will be done in the interest of Coach Eddie Kota1, his gridders, and our college,

Now that the initiation party at
Nelson Hall is over the new girls
have regained their peace of mind.
The old girls entertained the newcomers at an Olympics party Tuesday evening at nine o'clock. Part
of the ''athletics'' consisted of a
mildly torturous ''trip'' taken by
the blindfolded initiates. After
the gruelling part of the program,
the girls a'ssembled in the recreation room to take part in feats
and games.
Famous ~tars
The presence of famous stars
such as Ruth, Tunney, 'Metcalfe,
Schmeling, Didrickson, Nurmi,
and a score of others kept the
girls hopping. Refreshments were
served, and dancing was enjoyed.
Before the evening was over
everyone was convinced that the
'32 . '33 dormitory group had
started a banner year.
Helen Lansbach has ,brought an
additional honor to Nelson Hall.
She has received an appointment
as accompanist for Mrs. Moss, a
vVI.JBL vocalist.

Dear Editor:
We have heard the college students
of this year are complaining about us
attending their da.nces. Of course, the
past few dances have been overly
crowded - but - remember last year
when you had such small crowds - and
at that they were mostly compo~ed of
High school students. After all it really
is the money that counts. You should
be glad that we are interested enough
to patronize them. Do you think it's
fair to make us pay double your price'

a regularly scheduled game, student tickets will be all that is required for admission, according

Reading from left to right in the above picture are Arthur Thompson,
William Herrick, and Bill Scribner. They occupy this place of prominence because
of their loyalty and devotion in following the grid team to Carleton til lend
mural support. ''Art'' has had experience in our most popular profession (hitchhiking, you dope!) this summer, when he left Stevens Point for the coast with
a h::tlf-dollar and got back with fifty cents. Bill Scribner is a football man who
is not. really wearing dark glasses - it only looks that way. And the lanky
gentleman in the middle just went along for the ride. The boys left for the North
by freight early Friday morning. Their· sense of direction was all right, but they
eouldn 't tell it. to the engineer. When the "brakee ''booted them off they found
themselves eight miles from St. Paul and three miles fr·om the closest stree,t ear.
They walked. In St. Paul they located the tea,m and climbed into Harris Shaftou 's room at four o 'clo?k. Harris say's they slept on the floor, but my guess is
tha;t they slept on Harns. The f<'llows rode to Carleto"n with the team - the
tenm in the bus and the hikers on top of it. They made their way home the same
way, sleeping on the floor in Eau Claire Saturday night. When interviewed the
fellows stated that fresh air is always desirable, but enough is enough!

The Pointers played "heads up"
football throughout the game but
somehow did not seem to be able
to get going. The moat distinguishing feature of the game
was the wholesale penalizing of
Ringdahl's men... the penalties
amounting to over a hundred

Pass Ruled Complete
Eau Claire made its first touchdown in the opening period,
pushing down the field for four
straight first-downs. In the final
quarter of the game a long Eim
Claire pass was incompleted, but
was ruled completed by the official, who charged that the pass
was interfered with by Oligney,
Point quarterback. This "break"
for Eau Claire put the ball on the
Point two-yard line, and Eau

only two minutes left to play.

There is a correction on the
Carleton-Army game story in last
week's Pointer. Carleton does not
meet Army, October 1, but October 8. The N orthmen plan to
spend a week in the east after
playing Army. They expect to
meet the President, and play
some other outstanding teams on
the eastern coast.
Coach Kotal has been working
out the lads "palenty" this last
week.
Certain deficiencies in
play cropped out during the Carleton game, and he means to iron
out these rough spots.

A scrapping Point team toek it:
on the chin in the opening gam-e o£
the grid season last Saturday at
the hands of a strong Carleton
eleven at Northfield, Minn., to
the tune of 34 to 0. ·
Hard Battle
The score doesn't indicate at all
the relative strengths of the tea;ms,
or the closeness of the battle. It
was a hammer and tong fight all
through the first half, with Carleton emerging on top at mid-period
by a score of 7 to 0.
At the beginning of the second
half Carleton opened up the bag
of tricks that were to be reserV'ed
for the Army, sweeping do-wn the
field with a tricky passing attack
varied by end runs. Four touchdowns were recorded by the
N orthmen in the final two periods.
Locals Threat
The fact that Carleton made only one touchdown by a concerted
march down the field augurs weli
for the Kotalmen defense. Breaks
were responsible for the remainder
of the Carleton score, and, incidentally, break» were responsible for
the Pointers' lack of scores, In
the last minutes of the game the
locals unleashed a real scoring
threat, working the ball down to
the Carleton half-yard line for a
first down, only to have the gun
go off to mark the end of the
game.
. Two of the Carleton markers
came through blocked kicks under the shadows of the local goal
posts, the husky Northern linesmen sifting through to stop them.
The real break of the game came
in the beginning of the second half
with the locals in •possession of
the ball on the opponents' twenty
yard line. It was a real scoring
opportunity, but four thrusts at
the line gained nothing and the
Pointers lost the ball on downs.
Then a Carleton back got away
for a long run to a touchdown
'
and the game was won.
Experimental Lineups
The game was an experimental
one for both teams. Coach Kotal
started a lineup that included on)y two varsity veterans of last
year, Schwahn at left end and Ray
Koehl at center. Carleton used 35
men during the 'struggle.
Coach Kotal stated that he was
satisfied with the work of his
men, who played good 'ball against
a really big-time team. He alternated his men all the way through
and, after Carleton's third touchdown, withdrew all of the firststringers and· gave the rookies a
chance to "strut their stuff".
