Keep Clean Slate By
36-33 Win
Fighting before a packed gym
in their last home game of the
season the River Falls Falcons
almost staged the biggest upset
o~ the year when they held Eddie
Kotal's Point basketeers to a 36
to 33 win last Friday.
Real Scare
The new champs just couldn't
get primed for the River Falls
game. It seemed an anti-climax
after the Oshkosh and Wisconsin
games of the preceding weeks.
The boys weren't over confident
- they just couldn't get down to
work.
River Falls was all set for the
Kotalmen. A win over the locals
would make a success out of a
}Joor season. The fact that they
could beat the team that beat
Wisconsin was something to shoot
.at. And did they shoot!
Long Shots Win
It was only superior basketball
sense that saved the Pointers.
'They were out-fought, almost
outplayed, but Guy Krumm still
had his eye for the basket and
Art Thompson could still push in
those shove-shots. The local defense was air-tight, but Morrow
and Isaacson were deadly on long
·shots.
The first half ended ·with the
Falcons leading by a score of 18
to 14 and the Pointers more surprised than anything else. Coach
Cowie's laddies were out for bear,
and the crowd 'vas right with
them. Their gym is small, and
the mob made so much noise that
the players couldn't hear the o.fficials whistle.
Last-Minute Rally
The Pointers came back in the
:second half, tying the score and
going ahead by a small margin.
A last minute rally by the Falls,
led by the little Isaacson, almost
knotted the score, but a basket
and a free throw by Larry Bishop
just be:liore the gun went off put
the game on ice.

WiSconsin, Oshkosh, And Stout
Represented On Squad Picked
By Courtmen
An all-opponent basketball .team
has been selected this week by
Central
State's championship
quintet. All twelve of the men
on the squad voted, and the resulting team represents what the
Point considers its strongest opposition.
In the last football season we
had a team which really lost only
one conference game, that to Milwaukee, and defeated ·whitewater, winners of the State title.
When time came to pick an AllConference team Stevens Point
got two men mentioned oli the
second team. Oy, is this justice?
eded boy from Oshkosh who gave
Art Thompson his greatest battle
in jumping for the tip-of£. Morrow of River Falls and Anderson
of Stout were also considered.
At one forward position the locals favored Tadych, another
Oshkosh man, who only became·
eligible in the second semester,
and did not play here. He is said
to be fast and a real fighter. At
the other forward Kuss, River
Falls captain, was an almost
unanimous choice. He was the
sparkplug of the Falcon offense.
Badgers Recognized
Other forwards who received
votes were Lindow of Oshkosh,
who starred here; Smithwick, big
St. N orbe,rt 's forward; Smith,
University of Wisconsin star, and
Wichman, another Badger forward.
At guards the boys selected
Poser of Wisconsin and Stori of
Oshkosh as the outstanding men
they faced. Poser was the star of
the Badger aggregation at Wisconsin Rapids, and Stori kept
Stout in the running this year.
Close behind in the balloting was
Stephenson of Whitewater, who
qualifies as the confereuce selection. Other men considered were
Stogbauer and Pugh of Oshkosh.
Pointers Make Team
Along this line, the Eau Claire
Spectator listed an All-Op.ponent
team selected by the Zornmen.
They picked Bishop and Gregory
of the Point, along with Morrow1
Stori, and Kuss.

NoteclB«ndyAutha7ty
Before retiring, give special attention to your forehead and the a1·ea about your eyes. Cleansing the skin with
a good cream is the first step. Then,
using the fingers of both hands, beginning at the center of the forehead,
smooth on a youthifying tissue cream
to coax away the impending lines. On
the frown lines, use a gentle rotary
movement, then a firm, lifting movement with palms of hands from eyebrow to hair line. The cream may be
left on all night about the eyes and on
the forehead.
Nothing adds such softness and beauty to what might otherwise be '' ordinary" features as lovely brows and
lashes. The eyebrows can be trained to
a thin., glistening line, n<>t by tweezing,
but simply through a regular daily use
of a tiny brush moistened with a little
eyelash cream. BI'U-sh the lashes upward,
using a little of the same cream - it
darkens and at the same time promotes
the growth. ·
If you use eye makeup,
be very
subtle with it. Don't use it as a rule
for daytime. But for evening, used
rightly, eye makeup can be a decided
asset. A little shad·ow on the upper lids
makes the eyes seem larger,
softer,
more expressive. In fact, the more romantic evening gowns lose half their
glamour if the eyes are not shadowy
and mysterious.
For more detailed information about
preparations that will smooth out !ins
and make the eyes lovelier, more expressive, write to Helep.a Rubins.tein

College Debaters
Are Well Acquitted In
St. Thomas Tourney
Two Stevens Point debaters,
Donald Mills and C e l e s t in e
Nuesse covered themselves with
glory at the Northwestern Intercollegiate Debate Tournament
held at St. Thomas College in St.
Paul last week. Practically every
college this team met are outstanding in the section of the
country they represent. The first
day of the tourney, Mills and
Nuesse defeated Hastings University of Hastings, Nebraska,
lost to the Univers!tY. of South
Dakota, and won over Nebraska
Wesleyan and St. Olaf College.
The second day they defeated
South Dakota State, and lost to
the same Hastings team they previously defeated and lost to a women's team from Sioux Falls. Of
these teams, Hastings, the University of South Dakota and
Sioux :B'alls entered the semifinals, and the Hastings team lost
to St. Thomas for the championship.
On the other hand Tom Smith
and Burton Hotvedt fared not so
well, losing to the other Hastings
team, South Dakota State and
Gustavus .Adolphus, while winning a solitary decision over Mayville State Teachers College of
South Dakota.
Competition Keen
Twenty-two mid-western colleges of all classes entered the
tournament, and competition was
keen from the first. Many of the
schools ·entered are famous for
their debate teams, as is the case
with St. Olaf, Luther, and St.
Thomas. Last year a girl's team
from Hastings · University won
the national girl's championship.
The Wisconsin State Teachers
College Conference was well
represented, teams from Eau
Claire, Superior, River Falls,
Whitewater, Platteville and Stevens Point competing. Considering the showing made by our debaters, Stevens Point is regarded
a strong favorite in the State
Conference Tournament which
started here yesterday.
Due t·o the present financial entanglement, Psi Beta Chapter of
Sigma Tau Delta, National honorary English fraternity, has postponed the annual banquet for the
,initiation of new members until
the material coinage flows a little
more freely. Initiation services
were performed at a meeting held
in: Miss Davis' room Monday evening, March 5, at 79:30 P. M.
After a short business meeting,
the initiatory -service was given
to Patricia Cowan, Leone Cuff,
Dorothy McLain, Marie Mechler,
and Cedric Vig. Miss Cowan and
Miss McLain were former 'associate members.
