Playing before a capacity

the floor against "Doc" Meanwell's Badgers this coming Monday night in the Lincoln Field
House at "'Wisconsin Rapids.

Large Advance Sale
The game will be the outs-t anding basketball attraction scheduled for Central Wisconsin this
year, and fans from all t~e surrounding territory are t~kmg advantage of the opportumty to Sfle
the University team in action
against our own Pointers. The capaci•ous Field House seats approximately six thousand, and the advance sale indicates that every
seat will be filled when the whistle
blows.
Although the "'Wisconsin game
is the big tilt of the year f•or the
Pointers, they are not priming for
it as much as they are for the
Stout and Oshkosh games that
precede it. A notice on the poster
advertising the game states that
Coach Meanwell and his varsity
team will giw~ a basketball delnonstration before the game and
between halves. It is our humble
opinion that their varsity will
have their hands full giving a drmonstration during the game.
After the so-called 'week of silence', fraternity and sorority
pledging was begun Monday evening. Acc·o,rding to the rul~s adopted by the Greek Council last
year, pledge period will last for
three weeks and be culminated by
'hell week', during which time,
1pledges may be observed performing many an1d varied antics for
the entertainment of active members, and supposedly, for the 'b enefit of the pledges themselves, -·

pledge service to seven prospective members, including Margaret
Tnrrish, Barbara J.oy, Gaywoocl

Hotvedt , Adeline Bellman, and
Ellyn Salen. The service was held
at the home of Miss· Betty Rice,
704 l\fain street.
Omega Mu Chi soroll'ity presented the service to new pledges in

Those wh-o received the service

The last few weeks have witnessed
the promotion of an Iris campaign
sponsored by the Senior Class. To se·
cure subscriptions a personal campai.gn
was conducted. At pre.sent 300 copies
have been ordered. At $3.00 per c.opy,
plus advertising, Mardi Gras receipts,
and organi'lation fees, the bills entailed
in the making of the l 933 Iris will be

Now I ask, why not subscribe for our

each semester1
In the first ·place,
everyone would receive an Iris just a~
every one receives a Pointer. Second,
the price per copy would be lowered
from $3.00 to $2.00. Third, this system
would be fair, allowing the same priYi·
leges for the Iris as for the Pointer
Staff. (We are not objecting in anv
manner to the Pointer system; we, i;t
fact, advocate that same arrangement
for the Iris).
In another issue of this paper, sev·
oral students expressed the fact that
they favored the semester plan of payment for the annual as well as for the
school paper. How many students would
advocate the adoption of such a plan
for our annua.l in place of the present
system of ''grab where one can''?

Do you favor BD•
other Chicago excorsl.on this spriDg nut
on the same terms as the one two years
ago?
Allan Hodell: I think they should
hold it over until this suJlllller when the
fair is in progre.ss and n'Wt let them see
just the buildings. Otherwise I think
it's a good idea.
Alice Sorenson:
I didr.. 't go two
years ago, but it sounds good.
Art Thompson: Mmmm, do I! I think
it's a swell idea, 'cause we had such
a good time on the last one. In fact,
I favor it.
Bill Herrick: I'd like to go to Chicago. But I'd like tp have more chance
to see the town, and not have the tr:ip
so closely planned as to time. They
ought to make the time longer.
Richar_d Scpwahn; I'm in favor of
that Chicago trip. They should have
had it last year. I think it's a good
idea. The Chi Delts back it.
Stanley Popek: I think it's a good
idea, but I wouldn't be able to go.
Some of us don...,t feel we could afford
it. But as long as you want to go badly
enough, you can find the cash.
Wilson Schwahn: I don't favor it
because I don't believe it's educational. Last time everybody was so tired
when they got there that they slept'
through most of the day.
Ray Koehl: The Soo Line itself is
having too many excursions. It
wouldn't be worth it, especially when
the fair doesn't really start 'till this
summer.
Pete Peterson: Yes, I favor one but
in these hard times
I don't know
whether people would be able to scrape
up enough ''dough'' or not.

"Beauty is only skin deep u,
our
mothers used to tell us. But all of us
nowadays, mothers included, know that
beauty is more than skin deep. Beauty
of skin and contour and outline goes
with eighteen carat beauty and it all
comes from within.
The first rule is the cleanliness that
comes only from the bath·a·day. Not
a prolonged .soaking but a quick sponge
or shower - lathering the body with
soap then using a flesh brush briskly.
Rinse quickly with warm then wid water, then rub your body all over with a
rough towel.
Bringing the blood to
the surface is a wonderful help in keeping the pores active, the skin smooth
and clear. Twice a week take a longer
bath in really hot :water, followed by
a witch hazel rub. After your morning
shower a dusting of deodorant powdm·
delieately fragranced with water lilies
will add to your comfort and keep you
fresh and dainty during the day. In·
cidentally,
a liberal dusting of this
same powder on your feet and in your
slippers before a party will keep your
fcpt from blisters as you dance.
Another necessary aid to beauty is
sleep. If you are up late one night, go
to bed early the next night. I can't
guarantee eighteen carat beauty if you
ueglect this part of your regime. And
sleep with your windows wide open.
.E'resh air while you sleep is as vital to
beauty as bathing, exercise and cold
crea-1n.
Just before retiring, a cleansing and
massage cream applied to face and neck
and left on a few minutes will cleanse,
soothe and beautify your skin. If inclined to dryness, a little more may be
applied around the eyes and on the
throat and left on all night.

The following students submitted the best titles: Cletus Collins,
